NEXT YEAR W DEPRESSION CLASS. . .SMALL BUT mighty. , .the class of unfulfilled possibilities. . .the close of the year brings responsible positions . ,a chance to use one's talents. . The Junior year has very few class functions ..... except class elections and the 1937 Aurora. . . but other things make it the most enjoyable of the college years . . .two years have been spent in getting acquainted and becoming really a part of college life. . .strong friendship ties have been formed. .. so strong that societies are overlooked ...except in elections where society rivalries are almost a tradition. . .but in this class the stings of competition are forgotten even before the votes are counted. . .at other times no barriers between the groups. . . Real work begins. . .college classes now spell work , . .not enough hours in the day. . .or maybe too many. .. Business Ad zealots climb the long Hight of stairs to the third Hoor of Founders' Hall. . .with an air of expectancy. . .what will happen to- day?. . .more water?. . .is the room sacked? ..... an awkward pause as another train passes through Tiffin . . .then more recitation until the next freight is heard. . .Education students trudge to the Senior and Junior High Schools in mud, snow, rain, and occa- sional sunshine. . .observing all types of classes. . .then back again to write reports which are due at four o'clock the next day. . .thirty-six such jaunts . . .made in Tiffin and in home schools ...discussions on efficient classroom technique. . .Enthusiasts for chem- istry, biology, and physics forget everything but the Science Hall... finding unknowns. . .dissecting frogs and flowers. . .working experiments in light and sound. . .Wlhile would-be musicians lose themselves in the quaint, old rooms of the Conservatory . . .congregating in one little room before practicing. . .learning to know each other. . .then climbing up the winding stairs to begin work. . .juniors are faced with the seriousness of their tasks. Though the junior class is few in numbers, the activities are many in which they are engaged. . .football, basketball and track. . .the Young Men's and Young XVomen's Christian Associations. . .debate and dramatics ...the Education and History clubs . . .Kappa Delta Pi and the Pi Kappa Delta. . .the W7.A.A. and many other organizations. . .all find that the ju- niors can offer something. . . The junior year slips by. . .as money slips through some people's fingers. . .it is gone and yet no one knows where. . .a little bit was spent here. . .a little more there. . .but still some cannot be accounted for. . .Oh, yes, there were walks, chats, bull sessions. , .there were parties, dances and teas. . .there were games and con- tests. . .but all in all a most enjoyable year.

WILL HAVE OUR CHAN DINERS AT THE COMMONS SLYLY snitch apples from the trees in back of the Lib...complimenting themselves that they were the first to discover that the apples were ripe ...Groans of disgust. . .all ready for a jaunt and then trouble with Hattie's car before they are able to leave the campus. . .but somebody sees humor in the situation and takes a picture ...
