CLASS DAY Sl'lCAIi1CRS 'l'1-nan Row: Ulu-rst, Wall Lever, Haskell S1-:COND Row: Curry, Roy. llansc-n, Warn-ii. FRONT ROW: Porteus, White Moses. Fairchilrl. Marge, Pete and Jean, Jim and Ruth, John and Fran, Leo and Jeanne. I wonder if they knew that Bates was the first co-ed college in New England. Then we had our informal groups, among the most notable of these was the HDiscus 8: Ski Clubf, This group presented a colorful and successful Mayoralty campaign for i'Little King Smithf, Its many other doings were cloaked in secret ceremony. Then we had our honorary groups. Cum fzzzzffc was won by Hope Newman, David YYeeks, Leslie VVarren, Stanton Smith, Richard Dear- born, and Frank Bennett. Our P!1iBem Kappa.: were Paul XVright, Leslie YVarren, Stanton Smith, Dwight De lVitt, Richard Dearborn, Finley Cogswell, Edward Booth, Frank Bennett, Doro- thy Dole, Nancy Field, Edith Hunt, Joanne Lowther, Marjorie Moulton, and Hope Newman. Men selected to College Club were Arthur Belli- veau, Ralph Caswell, Harry Gorman, John Haskell, Donald W'ebster, Erle VVitty, Stanton Smith, Finley Cogswell, and Paul XYright. VVomen honored by the Bale.: Ifqv were Joanne Lowther, Barbara Abbott, Kathleen Curry, Marguerite Mendall, Gale Rice, Frances Wal- lace, Harriet YVhite, Helene Woodward and Virginia Yeomans. Of course, college life wouldn't be college life if there wasn't a little cain raised once in a while. I remember how the boys succeeded in getting new steel bleachers for the athletic field by burning down the old grandstand for did they?j. Then there was the unsuccessful attempt to 3 arouse students to strike for more lenient chapel requirements. There were many other less sensational off the record accomplishments credited to our period too. I guess our class did its share of wearing down the much-worn carpets in the offices of Prexy, Harry Rowe, Dean Clark, and Norm Ross. We weie a lucky class in certain ways, though. We were honored by having genial Dutchy Leonard graduate from his long teaching career along with us. We were the last class to recite I saw your father this morning for Prof. Rob. We enjoyed the privilege of associating with that grand old classicist, Goosey Chase, before he was called away. You'd have to go a long way to find such line men as these. Our class was also fortunate in being able to help celebrate the Seventy-fifth :Xnniversary of the college and in dedicating a new menis dormitory. And, oh yes, we mustn't forget how we just missed a new system of examinations called Hcomprehensivesf' XYe certainly were a lucky class. Yes, we have a lot to be thankful for. XXI' spent four of the most important years of our lives in college, and because we elected Bates, they were four of the best years of our lives. 'l'hat's why we're so anxious to get back for the reunions like this twenty-fifth one. It's quite a thrill to return to what we used to call our Uivy- covered nook in Yacationlandf' NVe are thus able to stimulate many pleasing dreams and have a chance to drink a toast to Bates and all she means to us. 1.
