Class of June '27 CLASS OFFICERS President-C. H. BRITTON - ViccfPresident-SAM B. LINK Treasurer-J. W. GREGG Secretary-W. W. WAGNER Historian-O. A. WILSON 55129 CLASS HISTORY URING our first year in Kirksville it seemed impossible that we could ever be molded into such a correlated body as the present june '27 class. We laid the foundations for future development as two classes in different schools. The second year we were joined. For a time we were, perhaps, a trifle dis' tant and full of misunderstandings, but individual prejudices were always for' gotten when progressive issues were at stake. As Sophomores we sometimes thought ourselves overworked. As Juniors we owe much to the intensive study of last yearg it brought us to see that we had the same purposes, the same hard fight to attain them, and the same rewards for our efforts. We naturally became appreciative and truly united. It is as this unified class that we hope to deserve the respect of the school. - Many new members have entered our class from other Osteopathic colleges and have proved themselves to be valuable additions to our ranks. We are now active in the clinics, which we feel have been benedted by attempts to bring in patients. As active studentfphysicians in the measles and mumps epidemic our success was gratifying. The whole tenor of our work has changed from the theoretical to the practical studies. From our class have come many leaders. In Kirksville and K. O.. O. school spirit, scholastic standing, professional deportment, laboratories, art, music and literature have all been richly contributed to by members of the Old Gray Mare class. In addition, one might say that our athletes have formed the nucleii of the varsity teams. In fraternities and sororities we have reason to be proud of the members from our class. The success of the Junior Prom indicated to our satisfaction that the at' tempts to establish a custom which would be a credit to K. O. C.is appreciated by the student body. The Osteoblast was published under such a radically new plan that at one time it seemed a very diflicult task. Thanks to the perseverance, economy and efficiency of the staff, we feel it to be clearly shown that the new system is not only practical, but far superior to the old method. Any history is studied as a summary of the past to foretell the future. The class of June '27 is proud to regard its past as a favorable indication of a conf structive future. l ' -' ' ' r l T l - l LL!
