The Y Y1- --1 - ---7 7777 WY r + +'11+e.7+larr7i+r BETTY STOUT MARGARET GREENWALD ELLEN NEWMAN l'l'csimlc11L Yin-e-l'rcsldunL Sc4'l'etu1'y und 'l'rcusurer Class of 1' C' 0 By Ellen Newman Y Do we lose our pep because we have to use some of it now and then? No, not tn? C1353 Of 7325 WG Share it, but don't throw it away. As Freshmen, under the leader- ship of Ben Fry, we proved ourselves up and coming Frosh by having very important meetings as well as banquets and other functions. Then as Sophs, we waited for the lifrosh of that year to get as excited as we had done, but we gave up waiting and, under the leadership of Larry Roth, got down to work ourselves and did all we could to better ourselves first, I'm afraid, and then the school. The third year we didn't wait for any- one else to get started. WVinnie Bensley planned several things which we did with zest, earning quite a bit of money from such undertakings as sponsoring a movie, which money went to entertain the very noble Senior Class of '31. And after all of this were we worn out? We should say not! There was now more work to be done an-d this year we did it. A banquet for the election of officers and setting the ball a rolling was on October 25, at which we all had a very nice time. Then we opened up our hearts and gave an all-school old-timers party, which We were delighted to see was well attended. This party gave us more genuine pleasure t.han most any other thing we have attempted, because it entertained so many of our friends. Then we turned to more serious affairs and sponsored a convocation, at which the Mayor of Battle Creek spoke. In January we turned musical and brought the Olivet Orchestra to our college. Richard Gaw, a former B. C. student, gave an excellent program as piano soloist with the orchestra. Everyone attending felt that they had heard an extraordin- ary concert. Then! Then! In February came Horowitz! What a time S.G.A. and we had putting this over, but we did it, and what a concert it turned out to be. We really feel quite proud of ourselves for bringing such a prominent musician to our school, and do earnestly hope that this type of entertainment may be continued and become a tradition to all Senior classes. We were then all worn out. What did we do? Why, we gave ourselves an entertainment. A formal party, one of the most unusual social allairs of the year, broke the monotony of too much work. Everything was very ele- gant from the dinner to the formals of the ladies, with one exception. We regretted that two of our speake1's were forced to give the same toast, as Miss Case spoke after Miss Hall, we must blame her for not being original. We felt that we could entertain ourselves right royally ever after. And so back to work with the lecture by the poet, Mr. Davison. Another thrilled and excited audience left the auditorium this eventful evening, with a very uplifting subject for much future conversation. And now in April it was our turn to give another convocation, and this time the Senior P.E.'s, under the direction of Miss Cameron, gave The Conflict, a health dancing pageant. This was such a new type of chapel presentation that it caught and kept the interest of everyone present, and proved to be the thing everyone had hoped would be pre- sented. And again we grew restless from too much work, and this time gave an all- school party at the Elks' Temple, at which everyone had a grand time. Ask anyone who attended. And now that we are approaching our one grand week of Senior activi- ties, with no lessons to prepare, due to the effort and cooperation of the faculty, wc feel that we have not done half enough for our school. Please, under classmen, take it from those who have had experience, and do all you can for your class, school and faculty, and you will find yourselves most happy with no effort. And, believe us, if you do, you will hate to leave B. C. College as badly as we do, but you will also feel that you have done a little to further its ideals. Good luck to all who are to come. May you do more than we did and love it. Page Forly
