r Y 55, ii-QXSW, The Magic Alphabet-History of Class of 1940 A s Freshmen, most full of 'satiable Curtiosity, we considered ourselves most signihcant and the Bump felt 'ticularly pleasant. B ecoming Sophomores 'most swelled our bumpy heads to bursting with all we had 'quired. C ause we learned Latin, we forever and ever wanted to have a Roman wedding, so one day we didl D on't you see, our Bump was 'most running away with us, and we were getting near the topsii--Look at us! E xclusively to suit our taste! With most oriental splendorous decorations, we had our Junior-Senior Prom. F igured a lettle berangement all our own and raised 3510 so that we could get our class picture in the last year's Dial. G o awayl can't you see you're disturbing our dreams! The Mi kado was the dream, do you see? H ear and attend and listen: for this befell and happened and became and was: our Dial officers were elected! I ndeed it was most 'portant and such fun-becoming proud and dignified Seniors. ' J ust so-and it was so-sometime ago-the Juniors gave a most scrumptiously wonderful junior-Senior party for us! K indly hearts all, we most pleasurefully sang in our Christmas Choir, and over the radio, too. L isten, look, and learn, O Best Beloved, of this wonderful 'vent- Come Out of the Kitchen -our Dramatic Club Play. M ind you, it's really pos'tively true! XfVe most 'ticularly had our pitchers taken real, real early. N ow attend all over again and listen! You must not forget the leap year dance-the girls held sway at this A. A. Dance. 0 ff we went to the movies--we've had so much fun since the movie and recording machine was added to our schedules-and Abe Lincoln is really educative, too. f P 'raps you think we're fooling. Well, we aren't! It really and truly happened-the varsity ran the legs off the faculty in basketball. Q R ueer you'd clean forgotten that-but the Operetta H.M.S. Pinafore was most 'ceptionally a good production and wonderful. ight in a single burst-only event of its kind-but, Best Beloved, Baby Day is a most 'portant 'vent of all our babyhood and our last chance. ' S 0 that was all right, Best Beloved. It was a long hard pull, but we finally got our Dial ready for press. T his, O my Best Beloved, was an event-a grand and 'citing 'vent-most different from other events-The County Field Meet. U nless we live to be very old, we'll never see it happen again, for the Music Festival was so 'spiring. V ery true! So we do-for Class Night was a most wonderful dance and we all 'joyed it so-o much. W ell do we remember that-for when our Dial came out, we were so hunted by autograph seekers, that we felt most awfully 'port- ant. X actly what happened! Mfe hated to take our final exams for more than one reason, but it just had to be, so we didl ' Y ou must give serious 'tention. The preacher at Baccalaureate gave us most 'cise 'structions of what to do, and what not to do. Z ing to the Towers of Ziinbabive-and we graduated sadly but surely! 79 Bumps of 'Satiable Curtiosity go out into the Wforld. Twenty-Eight
