TO TIN IE CLASS (Dir ' 38 Sunrise and the burstini; buds of spring Give outh life ' s jollity. Morning Star, shine! Oli shine! Bring Home your luxury! Not the setting, but the rising sun ; Not the passing, the coming day; Oh Youth, Life has just now begun: Parade in its array! Unfurl the royal pennants bold; Strike down the foeman ' s name; Bring forth the beauty of a rose While Life is all aflame. I smell the dew-bath in the air, I hear the clarion blast : I know they call at Youth ' s demesne While Life ' s ambition lasts. Now go you forth to scale the heights. But not without some pain: Who thus seek to find the light Will but have sought in vain. ■ — . L. Swindle

I INDinN 1 ' WILLIAM WYATT CLASS OIF 11938 William Wyatt President Lull Griffin - - Vice-President Dorothy Conn - - Secretary- Mary Ann Richards Treasurer Gene Lilly - Reporter Esra Coe Sergeant-at-.4rms Dr. J. R. Patty Sponsor We, the class cf ' 38. have completed a four year period of scholastic achievement, social adjustment, and moral construction. We have endeavored to procure knowledge which will enable us to become good citizens. Our attempts have been to enlighten lur minds to the affairs of the world and to adjust ourselves that we may face them as real men and women. In the fall of 1934, we entered the halls of Arkansas State College two hundred strong. At this time we were green but eager to learn. After a few weeks of adjustment, we began to grasp the idea and to form lasting friendships. After the spring semester opened, with Dean E. L. Whitsitt as sponsor, we elected Toler Buchanan of Walnut Ridge as our president, and it was under his leadership that the class made headway in promoting its numerous activities during that year. In the fall of 1935 as sophomores, we found ourselves very sophisticated but still willing to learn. That year Max Miller of Campbell, Missouri, was elected president. With the opening of the 1936-37 term, the class chose Orville Kelleit of Williford, Arkansas as president. Orville made a good pilot and guided us well on the road to seniority. We chose William Wyatt of Jonesboro, Arkansas, to lead us through our senior year. Under his able leadership, we have progressed well toward the goal of graduation. As we leave the portals of Arkansas State College, we realize that we are entering a world of turmoil and strife; yet we have prepared ourselves to bear these in a sane, sensible manner.
