Largest Graduating Class May Be Beaten By Next Yearls Seniors The 1949 Carthage College graduating class is the largest to ever hlc through the portals 0f the registrars office. But it may be beaten in size by next yearls seniors. To date, the present junior class has an en- rollment which tops the seniors. But drop-outs 26 may occur and a variety of combinations may result to change the total graduates next year. But it all looks good for juniors. Chances are, their total will exceed the 1949 class. Last year's graduating class Set a new ree- Urd in an all-time high in size. Now this yearls class has topped it. If the 1949 junior Class again breaks the graduating record, a new trend may be established at Carthage College, resultw ing in an enviable total enrollment in the held of American small colleges.

- .. CRIMSON RAMBLER H . ffnttoafuairzg Ulla gopgomote Cfaii . . . The suphomnre class of Carthage College spent the year enjoying their newly-found supe- riority over the lowly freshmen. At last their greenness has been discarded and they have had a chance to avenge the many sufferings they received when they were freshmen. The sophs began the fall term with an ap7 propriate initiation ceremony. The hrst few days were enjoyed by the freshmen as their upper-class ttbuddics', fairly uknocked them- selves out! trying to please the new campus greenies. But revenge was in their souls and soon a well-rounded program of hairncurling escapades was planned for the never-suspeeting freshmen. Neither women nor men escaped the evil doings of the stellar sophomores. Girls were forced to parade the campus minus make-up, hair-dos and alI-around glamour. Guys were seen strutting the streets in get-ups that would put a Hollywood make-up artist to shame. Nor did many escape the rare privilege, of entering freshmen court. Late at night the inner halls of Denhart and Memorial rccked with screams combined with laughs as the upper clammen sought to appease their revenge- ful souls. But at Homecoming time it was Over and the fresh were none too glad. But their punish- ments were taken with ease and the freshmen only used this knowledge gained as a back- ground for similar feats next year. And the gaiety did not deprive the sopho- mores from leadership. Many successful Iead- em arose during the year. With such an all- amund active participation, Carthage College has much to look forward to in the class of 1951. gopgorno'za dram Offtcsu Wendell Golden Preside m Roger Hansen Vice President Winnie Johnson Prof. Ralph Hansen Sen'etary-Treesurer Sponsor Golden, Johnson, Hansen
