Bob Gray was the president of the senior class until his call to service — U. S. Army Air Corps. Dick Buttermore, inset, was elected to fill that vacancy. Vice President Barbara Legler also left Denison before com- pleting her term of office, Febru- ary graduate. Barbara Williams, inset, assumes that capacity. Hugh McCulloch and Jean Fes- senden served as treasurer and secretary. That momentous year of 1939 saw 300 of us learn the beaten path from the Grille up the Drag to the library. Now in 1943, less than half of us will achieve the goal of receiving a B.A. degree. In this period we have seen the decline of the rah-rah college spirit and the growth of a more serious attitude. Our college days have been colored by a background of war hysteria, and farewell parties at Foxes have marked the departure of our men for all branches of the armed service. The Army Air Corps unit has taken over Curtis Hall, and their ringing Hep, two, three, four! has kept us marching in time to classes. During these years Den i sen y onnen have gained an equal status with the men in our student government. We have seen this or- ganization approach maturity in the students ' desire for an honor system, and have also witnessed the dangers of beaurocracy to which a democratic government may lead. Deni-Sunday and the Social Service projects have added to the students ' social conscious- ness. The enthusiasm for new war courses has made it impossible to say that Denison ' s most serious impact with the war was the closing of the Grille in September and the shortage of cokes. We leave four years of undergraduate dances, open houses, term papers and exams to follow the grave pursuits of fighting the war and holding down war jobs. 26
