Senior Class President MICKEY REGER How many times we have been asked, Isn ' t it wonderful to be ,-t senior? Often the answer is, It really is, but — . All the prestige and privileges granted us seniors are really wonderful, but there are so many things we will miss such as class days, chapel, a favorite class, dance week ends, Saturday night movies, fire drills, term papers, an eight o ' clock class, o liver for supper. Even our gripes leave pleasant memories. Eour years ago, on a very rainy Sunday, the class of ' 53 got its first glimpse of Madison. Everything was so new ; even the terms were strange — house mothers, orientation, registration, cutting campus. Our officers, Betty Jeanne Tyson and Jackie Brooks, provided guiding lights in the darkness and we finally began to learn our way around. By Thanksgiving we were full- fledged college students. We managed to sur ive exams, and April brought (lur class day — I ' m just a bird in a glided cage. Prisoners we were in that, our first Class Night. Summer passed all t. ' .o quickly and we returned to school, important-feel- ing sophomores, bubbling over with advice. Coating and pledging were new terms added to our vocabulary. Class Day rolled around again, this year our program centering around the magic lamp with Grace Matz as head genie. Tills was our last year to be frivolous, for next year we would be upper class- men. Another September was upon us, the September of our junior year. We had more advanced classes centered around a particular major, perhaps edu- cation or accounting or calculus. Whatever it was, we now reali2:ed that time was drawing short. Our Class Day coming just liefore Christmas, our theme centered around that seas;)n. Second semester we campaigned for the major offices and celebrated or drowned our sorrows over a coke at Doc ' s or th ' First Row — P. ' ill, Secretary, S. Simpkins, Treasurer. Second Raze — B. J. Hammack, scrgeant-al-anus, A. Painter, Reporter, J. Wheatley, Business Manager, N. Clirislnian, I ' iee-l ' resident 16
