We now look back with happiness to the Junior-Senior banquet. Our junior class had diminished in size to about half of the freshman classp Only one student was gained. Max McGehee. Lucille Cox and L. A. Grimes are new students this year. The rest of us were freshmen together. Our class of sixteen set a re- cord for a small size as a graduating class. But as we look forward, we realize more and more that the quality counts more than the quantity. -H Jtmmze Ree Sw1ndle it f' 4 it ll ,..4.. - :' 1 Hynix.. ..Q,Q1'g ,1 tx 0 0 L D . .l w
