As our first scholastic year drew to a close, we welcomed each new activity that came our way: Senior Ball, Easter festivities, our first retreat. Final exams over, we gave our- selves to the joyous, beautiful Rose Day cele- bration, our class doing its share in making the pageant successful. Now we have arrived at the end of a momentous year, one in which all of us have grown both mentally and morally. We have made the most of the opportunities offered us at the College of Saint Rose and have bene- tited accordingly. The class extends its heart- felt thanks to the faculty and our beloved junior sisters for their much-needed advice and cooperation. We turn our eyes optimis- tically to the future and wonder what our second year at Saint Rose holds in store for us. Let us trust confidently that it will be as pleasant as the one which we have just fin- ished so successfully. We may feel certain that our life as sophomores will be even more auspicious provided wecontinue consistently in the same ambitious spirit with which we have begun.

Some of these embryo actresses were given parts in Our Town , Thornton Wilder's play which the College produced under the direction of Mr. Harry Irvine. Perhaps the freshmen would not have so helping hand. It was through her patient efforts and perseverance that our Freshman Party was such an overwhelming success. Though we have been only one short year under her kindly direction, we have noticed decided improvements in our ever changing characters. It is with deep regret that we realize that she will not always be our faculty adviser, consoling ourselves, however, with 21
