We had many educational,financial and social responsibilities this year, but in the midst of all our activities we were sad- dened By the passing away of our classmate,Isabel Boyd. In connection with our studies in Problems of Democracy we visited the courts of hagerstown and a few went to the United “ations Conference at Lake Success, N.2£. Our pocketbooks were drained as a result of ordering name caras,invitations,caps, jackets,emblems,pennants and yearbooks. We wish to express our gratitude and appreciation to the Junior Class for a memorable Junior-Senior Prom and the favors we received.
