we y Pagans Vo !-lo! lhe Class of '33 . ln September, 1929, a new band of recruits joined the ship Aurora, We were six and twenty strong when first We came to Aurora! Yo ho! The class of ,33, yo ho! yo ho!- Q The class' of '33 when first we came to Aurora! - , Our early training was carefully supervised and watched over by the third class seamen who thought that the ordinary menial tasks were not enough for us, and proceeded to add more, they even furnished clothes so that we might be more properly and colorfully garbed. V V After We had been obedient and submissive as long as we could, we surprised them on Freshman Class Day. For the first time in history the Hag of the re- cruits stayed up until after chapel! We were proclaimed victorious, and were more tightly bound together, for not even the guns of the third' classmen had succeeded in removing our banner. I The excitement of newness having passed off, We settled down to the grind of scrubbing and polishing led by Wayne Gilman, president, Rachel Bishop, ,vice president Qfirst semesterjg Agnes Plain, vice president Csecond semesterlg Virginia Cass, secretary Cfirst semesterbg Mildred Heath, secretary fsecond semesterj 5 and Owen Stephens, treasurer. Cur members participated in the various athletic activities. However green the more experienced sailors thought We were at first, they changed their minds after we won the Mardi Gras prize.
