JUNIORS OFFICERS President PAUL GRIFFEN Vice-President JAMES OPPITZ Serg ' t-at-Arms. . ROYCE TIMMONS Reporter JAMES LOY Secretary ... MARY ELIZABETH PRESLEY Treasurer ROBERT HERMAN James Opp Uncle Sam is beckoning, and unhesi- tatingly the boys are answering his call to service. This class unreservedly enters into the activities of the college, and its personnel includes many of the campus leaders. Friends given by God in mercy and in love; My counsellors, my comforters, and guides; My joy in grief, my second bliss in joy; Companions of my young desires; in doubt My oracles; my wings in high pursuit. Oh! I remember, and will ne ' er forget Our meeting spots, our chosen sacred hours; Our burning words, that utter ' d all the soul, Our faces beaming with unearthly love; — Sorrow with sorrow sighing, hope with hope Exulting, heart embracing, heart entire.

My brain is in a trance. For once I do not look forward. I look back to yesterdays; one last chance Is mine, this last day To make it burn within my soul Never to forget. It is a pensive sadness that enshrouds me. Slowly, quietly, memories float Thru the years, and fleetingly blur In one moment. Friends I leave behind — cherished friends — Who have made my life a daily joy and heartache. Smiles I shall no longer see, of those Departed on the way. Gone forever. Yet lingering in the heart thru all eternity. Cool, calm nights in spiced rose gardens Will loom before me always. Nights crisp with fallen snow, are only memories. First acquaintances, first loves Overfill these years. And they are the best. The best years of my life — I realize now — On commencement. — Marion Kleinschmidt.
