Junior Officers: Mary Wilby, Jane Brunstetter, Anne Ross, Sabra Follett. We are the Junior Class. We had hardly drawn our first breath as Barnardites, when we were sub-titled the V- 11 because of a guy named Schickel- Ours were the first Frosh brains to expose themselves to the process of being trained for Uncle Sam. Liberal arts took on the aura of a precious heritage for us to protect. Class grube We polished our armor and read our Chaucer with a new zest. This year, with Molly Wilby as class presi- dent, 1945 settled down to the business of be- ing Juniors. While we waited at twelve on Jake for our Freshman sisters, we realized that we had finally arrived — WE were offering sage ad- vice on the subject of College. And we won- dered what to tell them. Following a year-old precedent, we changed Hewitt to heaven for another Junior Prom on Campus. We shed tears over the wartime sacri- fice of our Junior Show. But with our trained brains in their proper places, we suggest you cross the page and meet us face to face.
