Dimples says, two are talking SENIORS Now the end of the four-year cycle — freshman, sophomore, junior, senior — has crept upon the Class of ' 40. This momentous day, which seemed so remote in the past, is now present. The group is treading on the threshold of life; some will enter the halls of higher learning while others will follow vocational callings imme- diately. The new responsibilities that they will encounter are far more intricate and exacting than anything previousy known by them. The education they have received does not qualify them as being competent in any one field. Nevertheless, it has been so diversified and broadening in its efforts that it facilitates the entering of any desired vocation if effort is made by the individual. The Senior Class has been very active in all phases of school life this year. This activity has been the product of the efforts of many talented and ambitious members. To carry the executive burden of the group the graduating class chose the follow- ing officers: Robert hHersh, president; Robert Trader, vice president; Betty Rothhaar, secretary; and Evelyn Wible, treasurer.
