James Logan held its Junior prom for the Class of 2009 earlier this month, and most attendees seemed to have fun.

The theme of the May 4 promenade was "A night on Cloud Nine".

The James Logan Girls Softball team have lost only one League game all season long and they were not about to pick up loss number two when it counted most.

The Lady Colts, behind ace Stephanie Barnes, shutout Irvington 4‑0 Tuesday evening to advance to the MVAL Championship game.

Barnes was one runner allowed shy of a perfect game, as she gave up only one hit and no walks. Logan’s ace hurler also K‑ed half a dozen in the win.

Logan fell to the Irvington Vikings 9‑2 Wednesday afternoon to see their season come to an end.

The Colts struggled miserably throughout the game in which shoddy defense was key.

The Vikings starter Mike Rogers pitched into the 7th inning, allowing only 4 hits and 2 runs while striking out five.
From wikipedia:
Tamara de Lempicka (May 16, 1898 - March 18, 1980), born Maria Górska in Warsaw, Poland, was a Polish Art Deco painter.

Born into a wealthy and prominent family, her father was a Polish lawyer, her mother, the former Malvina Decler, a Polish socialite. Maria was the middle child with two siblings. She attended boarding school in Lausanne, Switzerland, and spent the winter of 1911 with her grandmother in Italy and the French Riviera, where she was treated to her first taste of the Great Masters of Italian painting. In 1912, her parents divorced and Maria went to live with her wealthy Aunt Stefa in St. Petersberg, Russia. When her mother remarried, she became determined to break away to a life of her own. In 1913, at the age of fifteen, while attending the opera, Maria spotted the man she became determined to marry. She promoted her campaign through her well-connected uncle and in 1916 she married Tadeusz Łempicki in St. Petersburg; a well-known ladies man, gadabout, and lawyer by title, who was tempted by the significant dowry.
