Pictured below is some of those in class room management, which is typical of senior classes in preparation for teaching. We have worked hard in preparing ourselves for the teaching profession. We have all taken our turn at practice teaching which is an ex- perience none of us will ever forget. In closing we all sincerely hope that none of our pupils see what is written on this page. , Back Row: GILLESPIE. FERGU- SON. SHAW. BICKER. Front Row: JOHNSON. ROB- ERTS. MADDOCK. .Ymc mi

We survived Willow Bend, cleaned off the steps of the Main building—for once.—and then we felt at home. Eldon Gilles- pie as our president, very ably guided us through our freshman year. With a number not much diminished we entered upon our sophomore year with as little mercy for the incoming class as we had received the previous year. Under the leadership of John Peterson we made our presence felt in the fields of athletics, dra- matics. Y.M.C.A., Chi Sigma Phi. Alpha Theta Tau. Delta Kappa Sigma, and Gospel Team. John Peterson and Donald Foulks sang with the college Harmonizers. Mary Jane Hampton and Bette Allison both were married and withdrew from college. In the fall of 1938, our number much decreased by the previous June commencement, twelve of us returned. This year Russel (Lanky) Roberts was chosen as president. The high spot of this year was the banquet given the Seniors by our class, at the Y.M.C.A. in Dayton. Another case of matrimony appeared with the announcement of the marriage of Donald Foulks and Katherine Smith of Waynesville. September 1939 found 10 Seniors back in harness—the last lap of the journey toward a degree and a job. Russel Roberts was again elected president of the class as well as Student Body Presi- dent. Mr. and Mrs. Foulks announced the arrival of a daughter and the Lavernc Whipp-Margaret Ott romance culminated in marriage early in the new year. Our class has been decreased by onc-fourth during our four years at C. C. Survival of the fittest? Perhaps—. Irene Goodin. Eighteen
