HpHE senior class of ’33 is soon to hid good-bye to the campus. They will leave behind many im- pressions of tasks accomplished, of good work and fine records. And with them they will take, as they depart, many memories of their school days — memories to treasure in future years when those school days become a dim and distant unreality. The seniors hand to their suc- cessors, the juniors, the prestige that accompanies the rank of sen ior. They wish them good luck and offer them good will. And the juniors anticipate the time when they shall be members of the most “dignified” group on the campus — the senior class. To the sophomores, the juniors entrust the responsibility of carry- ing on the record of our school as revealed in the yearbook. It is a great responsibility, but a very worthwhile task. And to the freshmen, by now experienced in the ways of campus life, the sophomores bequeath the right and privilege of making life a miserable burden for the next herd of newcomers to the campus. Be it theirs to handle wisely and well! Katherine Rhoades Senior president Norman Lietzke Junior president Vester Davidson Sophomore president Donald Hoover Freshman president Page 27

Field Zoology Laboratory Botany Laboratory Nutrition Laboratory Costume Designing Class T HIS is a picture of a field zoology class on laboratory day. The general purpose of field zoology is to study how animals live. The subject around which the study centers is the word “adapta- tion.” The creatures that can adapt themselves to their environment are the ones that survive. In this class, the habits, food, and home-building habits of various groups of animals are studied, as well as their relation to man and his welfare. This picture is of a botany class laboratory. Botany has a twofold purpose: First, to acquaint the students with plants in general and study the two classes, flowering and non-flowering plants; second, to study plant behavior, structure, and function. In the spring and summer a study is made of the common wild flowers, com- monly called weeds, analyzing, class ify- ing, pressing, and making collections of them. The third picture was taken during the feeding of the white rats used in nutrition class experiments. The nutri- tion class studies the function of food from the standpoint of its composition, digestion and its use in the body to meet the requirements of normal human nutrition. Experiments are performed upon white rats to show the effects of different diets upon them. The costume designing class is here shown at work. This class makes a study of the fundamental principles of design and color theory as applied to dress, line, texture, and color suitable to different types. They make this study from the standpoint of adaptation of dress to the individual. The study of harmonious accessories is included. Page 28
