CLASS SONG.
WHAT THE SENIOR CLASS HAS
COTRIBXJTED TO SCHOOL
ACTIVITIES.
No doubt you’ve heard songs of many
things.
Most of them about maidens fair.
They all sing songs of the things that
they love.
So we’ll sing of a subject most rare;
Each Senior’s heart shall always
sing in praise
To dear L. H. S., the school that is
best.
And our happy though toilsome high
school days.
And we hope that this song.
That We sing will live so long.
That you never, never will forget
the name of L. H. S.
Clioriis
School days, dear school days.
As they pass we hold them fast in
mem’ry dear,
And we are hoping and longing
That our friendship life shall never
sever.
And we’ll all succeed together.
School days, dear school days.
As we sing our voices ring with love
so true.
For we’ve worked and played with
all our might.
And we’ve tried to do the thing that’s
right.
Then Seniors come, let’s smile with
faces bright,
For our school days are the best days
of them all.
CHRISTINE McCRARY.
The Senior Class of nineteen hund
red and twenty-three has made a
large contribution to the different
school activities. The class has con
tributed to every athletic sport.
In basketball, there were two
senior boys out of five. These were
Joe Walser, guard, and Roy Peacock,
manager and sub. center.
In football, three senior boys were
on the team. These were Moton
Leonard, guard, and Bruce Conrad,
half back, also Joe Walser, manager,
and Cortez Anderson, center.
In base ball, there were also two
senior boys on the team. These were
Bruce Conrad, third base, and Ray
Zimmerman, short stop.
In Tennis, the class contributed a
senior boy, Joe Walser, player and
manager.
In the Girls’ Basket Ball, the class
contributed Ella Raper, captain and
star forward of the team.
The High School debating team
was composed of four seniors. These
were Lois Hackney and Christine Mc
Crary, affirmative, and Ella Raper
and Joe Conrad, negative. The
team was very successful, altho it
lost in the state championship con
test. Each member of the team was
a splendid speaker and each one
deserves credit for the time and work
put on these splendid debates.
To The Lexhipep, the senior class
contributed six members of the staff,
these being Virginia McCarn, Ella
Raper, Christine McCrary, Lois Hack
ney, Charles Davis and Joe Walser.
The class has the honor of having
and being the only class in the High
School to have one hundred percent
in subscribers to the school paper,
which is a fine proof of real school
spirit.
Now that the class is leaving old
L. H. S., knowing that next year and
the years to come these places in the
different activities of the school will
be left open only to those live, en
ergetic school-spirited students who
are willing to try to helii keep up
the record of L. H. S., the class of
twenty-three sincerely hopes that
they will still put her forward by
making her known to the high
schools everywhere.
