of mjqqoxbtq ©ESfimHKon % gxcbbb coefD The three pleasant years now are ended. And now comes the time for good-bye; The work and the pleasure is over. And parting brings us a sigh. We must part with dear Alma Mater Where so long we have valiantly tried; And her truth and her inspiration Which has been our constant guide. From this source of true inspiration Though we all must soon depart We never can part with the spirit and pluck It has fixed within our hearts. And we hid fond adieu to our teachers, Our professors so kind and so true Whose teaching, example and counsel, In life, will follow us through. Now classmates, let’s turn to each other Though it means a deep sigh of regret To part with the friends of our college days. Those schoolmates we ne’re can forget. Calvert Scribf.r

(Whitman). So wc, too, started forth in the fall of 1935, and so we end up the class of ’38, ready to enter the ironical game of life. Boisterous freshmen tho’ we were, subduing influences soon quieted us. We chose our friends and elected our officers like the first object a child casts his eyes upon.

Power, encouragement, and success came to us with “Cal” Scriber as President; George Colbert, First Vice-President; Olive Harvey, Second Vice-President; “Gar” Zeitler, Secretary; David Madsen, Treasurer; Ernest Gen- tile, Historian, and Henry Aumiller as Representative to the Student Council. Green as we were, we soon developed under ripening influence. Fraternities with their smokers and inveigling promises, attracted us. Shining goals were the honor roll, bowling, basketball and baseball teams, meant only for the fortunate few. It almost seemed with quarterly exams and the Freshman Hop that we went through in one year, that which was meant for a lifetime. But then it was soon over and back to the degrading influences of civilized life went the class of ’38. This was not for long, for vacations have a short life; and soon, basking in the full glory of our assumed titles “Juniors,” appeared on the stage for our act. We were much better prepared this time, however, for we had elected our class officers the year before and now could swing directly into action with Kenneth MacCollam as President; Donald Templeton. First Vice-President; Henry Aumiller, Second Vice-President; Mary Coughlin, Secretary; Donald Bellow, Treasurer; James Sloan, Historian; and Frederick Clark as Student Council Representative. We showed our capacity for co-operation at our Junior Prom (far the best in many years). Yes, most of us will admit we initiated many new fashions, renewed some of the old, and discarded most of the good. Quarterly exams did not now hold anything sacred to us. Wc had decided that it “was not ours to reason why —ours but to do and die.” With the leaving of Professor Scjuircs and the coming Twenty-five
