Life Begins in Vlll and Ends in '41 At the end of a year one stops and takes time to look back and take stock of things. Has the past year been a success or a fail- ure? Has any progress been made toward achieving a definite goal? How much has really been accomplished? Is anything par- ticularly outstanding about the passing year? The underclassmen of this year have much to reflect back over and be proud of. In September 1939 a larger than usual num- ber of students classed themselves as fresh- men and began to help toward making '39- '40 a uccessful school year. They helped to- ward this by comprising the bulk of volunteers for all activitiies. In football, basketball, and track the underclassmen were outstanding. In Phi Theta Kappa, Pep club, Y. M. and Y. W., and student council the influence of the freshman class was prev- elant. They have set a high standard for future classes to measure up to. The freshmen in a junior college have an advantage in that they have the opportunity to lead and to take part in school activities. They do not become lost in the numerous ac- tivities which are dominated by the upper classmen in a senior college. This class has apppreciated the many opportunities it has had. What these students will do concerning their future education can not be forseen but the records of the past year show that they have taken their first great step toward a higher education. They possess that eager spirit and indefatigable desire to learn and if they carry this out into the world with them nothing, however great or small, can hold them back. Sucessful year, freshman class! Keep up the good work! FRESHMAN CLASS OFFICERS Left to right: Peterson, Boulanger, Clayton, Scranton, Elliott. Page 25
