Roy Beadle HE wearers of the green in 1930-1931 'have now reached the year looked for- ward to by every freshman, graduation year--19343 but of the original 91 who started in four years ago only 23 will be graduated from Linfield. This, however, is a goodly number to have survived the depression and the rigorous tests of their pro- fessors. Fortunately the class has been added to by transfers and return students, The Seniors were all enthused about their last two semesters and true to former years have taken part in all the college activities. Three class parties were held: one was a 'Kid Party at which the Seniors forgot their dignity and frolicked in a manner more becoming underclassmen. Equally enjoyable were the other twoiparties and the picnic given us by the Juniors. Florence Macy, while editor of the Oak Leaves, won first place in women's oratory at the Pi Kappa Delta All-'Western Tournament in Pasa- dena, California with her oration entitled Green Gold. She also entered the National Tournament in Lexington, Kentucky where she got into the semi-finals. The Senior class is fortunate in having attended Linfield during the administra- tions of both Dr. Leonard W. Riley and Dr. Elam J. Anderson. The Class of 1934 is leaving Linfield's halls with mixed feelings of sadness and joy in the hearts of its members: sadness that the close ties of friendship with each other and faculty is being ended: but joy that the many friendships made will still endure, and that now they can go out into the world and put into practice some of the ideals of loyalty and service taught at their beloved Alma Mater.
