SENIOR ACTIVITIES What a busy year the third one was. Don Falkenberg and Evelyn Lockard led off to a good start with the Junior-Freshman reception; a Pay Program in November; and the religious pageant at Easter. Then came the Gold Room of the Lafayette Hotel with a Junior-Senior banquet that spoke volumes for Evelyn’s ability. And last, your fleeting Senior year. A fall get-together, a Christmas party in the parlor, Dickens’ Christmas Carol,” Valentine party, Winter Carnival, May Day Festival, Senior Day, COMMENCEMENT—they sped by. Though the passing of many years may serve to dim some memories, blending them into one pleasant whole, others stand out, unfading. On the march . . . just resting a bit . . . posing . . . around the Maypole . . . crowning the quoon . . . train-bcarors . . . remombor the gold room . . . final march

PEGGY MOTT WALLY HARNED May Queen Snow King SENIOR ACTIVITIES In electing Peggy and Wallace May Queen and Snow King, the students bestowed upon them the highest honor a Senior boy and girl can receive. Qualifications for either achievement are very high—pleasing personality and appearance, friendliness and popularity, scholarship, and other traits of leadership—in a word, all that goes to make a typical Asburian. Four years! Long? They seem now to have flown by on wings of the wind. Remember them? The first—your Freshman year. Mardelle Amstutz and Herbert Clin-gen, your sponsors, piloted you safely through many dangers, troubles, and joys. The kid party in the fall, the spring hospital” party and then . . . Sophomores! Fellowship renewed in an informal get-together, a Thanksgiving vesper service, and who could ever forget that formal party in the spring? 122]
