We continued with sales of candy and baked goods throughout our Freshman year. By the next year, we had enough money to buy our banner. When we were Sophomores, the Class of 1938 handed down to us its candyt business. We took it seriously and received . a regular income for two years before follow- ing the precedent of giving it to our sister class after Easter Vacation.
