Lincoln High School students assembled around the school's statue of Abraham Lincoln during this Memorial Day (May 29) 1924 celebration honoring veterans as well as the martyred President after whom the school has been named. The outdoor ceremony replaced the indoor ones of previous years and was sponsored by school service organizations, Knights of Lincoln and the Takolah Club. Lincoln High School can be seen in the background with the original stadium bowl to the right. (TNT 5/30/1924, pg. 13) TPL-3199, Boland-B10167
