Each of ihe graduating seniors has carved his niche in the hearts and minds of his acquaintances at Wart- burg. Each has made his own contri- bution to the future of the Greater Wartburg. Activity has been the watchword. Led by members of the senior class, Wartburg athletic teams have made great progress in placing themselves high in the ranks of college athletics. Many seniors have chosen to give of their time and talents to musical organ- izations, leading them to prominent places in the Wartburg family. Five seniors in prominent journal- istic offices have led the way in school publications, and the countless efforts of seniors in student government have given it a place of high esteem. From the ranks of the senior class came the royalty of Homecoming, charming, personable and altogether lovely. Seniors in dramatics have helped uphold the traditions of the Wartburg stage, and the senior class project has furthered the building pro- gram of the school. Leaders of this class, Eldon Reeg, pres.; Eugene Tjarks, v-pres.,- Katharine Nielsen, sec.,- and Clair Grube, treas., ably aided by class advisers. Dr. Elmer Hertel and Miss Erna Moehl, have led it to great achievements. And so with eyes to the future, and with nostalgic memories of their school, the seniors say farewell and best wishes to The Greater Wartburg.
