and did. This year also witnessed the founding of the Junior College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, thus another step in the expansion policy of Columbus University became a reality. Our class officers during the Junior year were: Lambert Parod, President, Rita Walsh, Vice-President, Marguerite Ferguson, Secretary, and Elizabeth McCartney, Treasurer. With the fall of the leaves and the coming of topcoat weather 214 of us returned to Columbus for our Senior Year. Seniors now, we are on the threshold of achieving the goal which we set for ourselves in 1937. During our summer absence many changes had taken place in the school, foremost of which was the installation of loud speaker systems in the Junior and Senior Classrooms. With varying degrees of concern and pleasure we began our series of Moot Court classes under the direction of the Honorable Nathan Cayton of the Municipal Court and Dr. Fitzpatrick. The imaginations of our fellow students amazed us all and a great deal of knowledge was gleaned from the presentation of the individual cases. On November 8, 1939, a new slate of class officers, this to be our last, was elected. and activities really began in earnest. The Class Officers met, and selected John A. Nevros as Editor-in-Chief of THE EXPLORER, and the work on the year book was started early in December. The Mid-year examinations began the third week in January and presented real obstacles to overcome. Exams over we looked forward to our senior prom which was held at the Wfashington Hotel on February 3, 1940. A more colorful and congenial affair would have been hard to present. It was a success in every sense of the word. On February 15, 1940, we were notined that thirty Columbus graduates had passed the December bar examination. This item was a distinct note of encouragement to us, assuring us that at least it is not an impossibility. With June and graduation just over the horizon, many of us are impatient. Columbus has come to mean a great deal to all of us, and as the end draws near we realize that we will miss the many nights spent here, the many pleasures we have experienced, and the many friends we have made. But beyond that horizon is a rising sun, and we earnestly hope that it will rise and shine on every member of the class of 1940. We are leaving now, each and every one of us: Explorers still-more so than ever in this, our chosen field, ever changing and expanding. Wfe are destined to continue to delve into the novelties and mysteries of the law-Explorers still, but now equipped with the basic tools and knowledge to guide us, to help us chart our course for the future. No longer need we drift about aimlessly, for now we can steer our course ahead. We are explorers of a most uncertain future: one that may bring forth a new order of civilization. We shall explore that future and help mould the destiny that is America's and ours, one and inseparable, the better equipped by our three years spent at Columbus. Page Thirty-one
