But knew our senior days would come
It IS frequently stated that class hnstory repeats Itself but thts statement us not altogether
supported by facts as many hlstoruans have found to thelr sorrow As the task of funding

freshmen under the sponsorship of Mrs J W McCre1ght and Mr Sherman Kelly At our
furst meeting we elected Cltnton Nlchols president Ray Danlels vlce president and Muke
Lsles secretary and treasurer
Our next problem was chooslng the clubs we would lake to gown To gain our rtghts as
