The Junior Class You saw us when we frowned at the rules of enclitics in Greek; when we practiced speechmaking under the merciless heckling of the class; when we defined cultural var- liability and prepared chick embryo slides. When the fat met the lean in “knock-’im- off-the-stool” in Oakwood; when we gathered sedately for the class supper; when we chose as our motto “Conquering Through Christ” and prayed together, you saw us. When we witnessed the trials of the men to whom we preached in jail; when we serv- ed on Gospel teams; when we found spiritual needs at Gospel Hill and Staunton homes; when we kept the “Y” cars serviced and its accounts straight, you saw us. When we yelled “Yea, team’; when we drove our old cars or walked; when we got cold showers for getting engaged; when we nursed the sick; when we “rushed” to chorus and “squeaked” in Chemistry, you saw us. You did see us, E.M.C., remember? —Jay B. Landis
