Diversity, diversity, nwful diversity! C. B. C. invaded by tlie Freslinicn of Sep- tember, 1938, became a veritable Hamilton mixer. To Missourian aboriginalily was added Cnattanoogan cnarm; to Greenvillean intellectuality, Aslieviliean ingenuousness; to New Jerseyan lyricism, Floridian E picureanism; to Nebraskan coyote-ism. New York cosmopolitanism. Bewildered upperclassmen gaped and wondered, but Frrsliman adaptability was soon proved. The first year was one of varied experiences — getting oriented into tbe C. B. C. way of doing things, learning to study for quizzical professors, and adapting one s self to the eccentricities of roommates. To their second year at C. B. C. the returning Sophomores came, with Laing Burns at the prow. Vistas of expanding opportunities in Christian service and in tlie extra- curricular life of the school unfolded to the class of 42. Some of the Sophs blossomed forth into two-year Seniors. 1 o these, oon I ' oyage was expressed by their sister class at the banquet of the good ship Seniomore. As Juniors and third termers the class of ' 42 entered the last lialf of its school ca- reer. Neils I arsen was elected comnmnder-in-chief of the class. The Junior-Senior banquet was of a militant character, in view of a world at war. The Finiai. of 1941, published by the Junior class, was a lorward .step in the evolution of C. B. C. s year book. Came September, 1941 -the beginning of the fourth year, and the Seniors desired to enter, as never before, into all that their heavenly Commander-in-Chief had planned for them. Howard Oakley was chosen president of the class. Came November 17 — and an unprecedentedly joyous Senior Sneak, despite the early send-off by Junior lassies. Throughout the 1941-42 chapel hours. Senior class members gave messages ol vic- tory in their own li ' es. The year brought also new testings of faith, new accomplish- ments in prayer, now blessings from the Word, and new desires to go to the utter- most with the Lord.. As the strains of the class hymn are heard in the solemn stillness of Baccalaureate and Commencement hours, a prayer ascends from each Senior heart — that he might take unto hi?nself the whole armor of God and go forth into rjattle knowing that sure victory is his through our Lord Jesus Christ.
