(flaAiu ofc. anucuup 1%2 The world will not long remember what we did and said during our three years in Commerce, but we mem- bers of the January class of 1942 will never forget. Many pieces of chalk have been worn away since the day we entered Commerce; our ever moving feet have scraped away more inches of the wavy stairways; numerous gray hairs have crept into the ever-graying heads of our teach- ers; but the greatest change of all has taken place within us. Each of us had his own character traits during our noteworthy freshman year; yet we all tried to make our class the best that ever passed over the marble floors of Commerce. During our XA semester. Miss Helen E. Parker, Miss Martha B. Judd, and Mr. Harold W. Jones were appointed as our class advisers. Our first class dance, the Freshman Frolic, was held on Friday the 12th. The combined XB and XA class social on April 22nd rounded out our first season of recreational activities. Two combined dances were held in 1940, one in April, the other in November. On our first election of class officers, we chose Paul Tuohey, President; Wil- liam Foskit, Vice-President; and Josephine Urbini, Secre- tary. At our second trip to the polls, December 10, 1940, we elected William F. Loader, President; Varvar Zcroogi- an, Vice-President; and re-elected Josephine Urbini as our Secretary. A Good Neighbor Dance, held in April, 1941, initiated our season of senior events. Last came the climaxing events, our own banquet, at which we first heard the names of our three-year honor pupils; the promenade on January 23rd; and finally our June graduation. It would be impossible to mention ALL the students who have made our class noteworthy; we feel sure that each individual member has contributed his share toward making our history “the best ever.” David Pava.
