TOWARDS the end of freshman year, after weeks of intricate mathematical calculations, we realized that 1931 was a doomed group. The class numerals added up to 13. The omen proved only too true. Our high spirits were dampened when on Parade Night, Becky Warfield burned to death in the famous bonfire when someone flung her into it under the impression that she was a hockey stick.
