Dick Hughes wills to Spider john Duckett his uncanny ability to tear in half simultaneously seventeen volumes of the Eufyclopedja Brifamlim.

Oliver Wendell Holmes once wrote, The best part of our knowledge is that which teaches us where knowledge leaves off and ignorance begins. Unlike preceding Junior classes, the members of the class of '47 at least admit that they know little if anything. This attitude really is a pleasant change from that unbounded knowledge held by the juniors of the past. Nonetheless the junior class has other criterions by which it has gained glittering dis- tinction. The athletic field is inundated by outstanding juniors, crowding all other classes into ignoble submission. Apart from the juniors' alleged romantic achievements, it can be said without fear of contradiction that by far the brightest star in the yearly social firmament was the Christmas dance, put on by the ever-industrious juniors. In the years to come, the gap left by the junior class of '46 will not easily be filled. In contrast to this is the ease with which the juniors slipped into the gap left by the Junior class of '45.
