Broader Pathways Are Opening The senior class came back to Huntington college in the fall numbering twelve. In the spring term one more senior came into the class making our number thirteen. We are sure that the number thirteen has been very lucky for us. Some of us felt it lucky because we were granted a position before graduation. Thirteen is a much smaller number than thirty-five, with which we started as freshmen four years ago. We dreaded to see our class decrease and yet we realized that the quality and initiative of our thirteen was just as great as that of any larger numberg so you see we are proud of our thirteen. At our first meeting this fall we elected our class officers and Student council repre- sentative. Geraldine Zahn of Huntington was elected as our class president, Richard Walker of Ohio was elected vice president, Nellie Wood of Huntington was elected secre- tary, and Roy Johnston of Canada was elected treasurer. The Student council members were Lowell Buzzard, George Bergdall, Nellie Bard, Charles Herr and the class president, Geraldine Zahn. Our year was quite full of the usual activities of the school year. The outstanding experience for many of us was our student-teaching in high schools. At first it was quite a drudgery but after we were accustomed to it we felt well able to excuse the critic teacher and take over her responsibilities. The only headaches from the whole matter were suf- fered by the critic teacher and probably the students who had to be there whether they could stand it or not. Our graduating class represents various fields in life to be taken after graduation. Seven of us will enter into the teaching profession, five will enter into theological work and one will take up business management fa real business man, tooll The class has been well represented throughout the four years in various activities. We are sure that as our class has carried out its responsible places in college life so will we go on and carry our responsibilities in our future years. As a graduating class leaving Huntington college we realize that we are passing from a school for which we have created a sincere feeling which has grown deeper each year. We will be able to live over these few years only in our minds. The last year has speeded away so rapidly we can hardly realize what has happened or what we have accomplished. We are leaving behind us organizations of which we have become a part, so much so, that finally in our closing moments we see how much they have contributed to our lives. We have found real friendships and helps from the professors who have worked so faithfully with us. We are greatly indebted to President Harold C. Mason who has guided us throughout the years and has been so inspirational to us and who we are sure will be our life-long friend. Exceeding all other things, we are leaving a college with high ideals and standardsg one which has put before us Jesus Christ. Through the four years we, step by step, have been drawn more closely to Him. We have been able to establish our faith in Him and He in us. May we ever be faithful to Him and to our Alma Mater as we step out on life's broader pathways. May we ever cherish the fond memories of our college. G. Z.
