DON AITKEN BILL LEONARD BILL OTTMAN Page 19 President Vice-President Secretary Freshman Class History Due to the influx of veterans of World War II, the freshman class is one of the largest in the history of this school. These men, as has been the case all over the nation, have ably demonstrated their ability to apply themselves to their studies and the all-important sports that are essential to modern college life. They have formed the nucleus of football and basketball teams that will be remembered as the best the school has seen for many years. Their spirit and determination forecasts a brighter grid and basketball picture during the next season. Other fields have felt the effects of their initiative and drive. They have organized a Men's Pep club and have participated in such organ- izations as the Y. M. C. A., Sock and Buskin and the band. In all organ- izations open to men in the junior college, the membership has been pre- dominantly freshmen. On the other side of the ledger we find that the girls have not been idle this year. A lovely freshman was crowned Homecoming Queen. and the program for this occasioan Was very capably handled by members of the Girls' Pep club. In addition to the Pep club, the membership of the Sock and Buskin and Y. W. C. A. boasted a large number of fresh- men. There Was also a junior college Girls' glee club, Whose membership was largely composed of freshmen. Together the men and women of the freshman class scored high on the membership of the Phi Theta Kappa, the honorary scholarship fraternity. One cannot imagine anything other than the best for students who are so eager to learn and who are so undaunted by obstacles.
