As the year passed, they watched the march of events: the Chestnut Party, where they threw eggs to get first place: the bigger and better parties: the Great- est of Dickinson Banquets; the beginning of the drive for the new and Greater Dickinson: the fascinating PoHtical Science Field Trips: and the second annual Senior Prom and they wound up a year of industrious activity with the presenta- tion of the famous classic Smilin ' Through in a style worthy of Broadway. June came, and the companions and classmates parted never to meet alto- gether again, but each taking with him the common memory of the years at Dickinson — the School on the Hilltop.

WiLLMANN Treasurer SENIOR CLASS HISTORY OVliR a hundred strong, green as grass and fresh as a Petty cartoon, the hordes of the Class of ' 38 stormed over the now-beloved railroad tracks on September 15, 1936. As one man the tribunal led by Evenden, ' 37, landed on the collective — or, neck of the newcomers and with the aid of the ancient and honorable order of the paddle initiated the Class of ' 38 into full- fledged (and enforced) standing in the institution. Then as well seasoned veterans, boasting members from the out-of-the- way-places of the earth. Six Mile Run and Montoursville, the Frosh proceeded to get organized. Under the leadership of Head Man Gehron. Vice Head Man, Horton, Minute Man ' Williamson, and Keeper of the Cash. Rose Marie Calla- ghan, these sturdy valiants fought their way to second place in the Chestnut Party. ' With hearty vim and vigor they battered a path into the secret councils of the Thetas, the Kappas, the Sigmas, the Dickinson Players, the I. R. C the athletic teams and most of the other organizations on the campus — even in- cluding the Corner Store Intellectual Debating Forum. In the spirit of greater social progress, they poured out in their best bib and tucker at the President ' s Reception, the Christmas Banquet, the Greater Dickinson Banquet, and the first annual Senior Prom. The girls did their bits for May Day too. and several Frosh including Frances Nicholson. Clarence Park. Tom Sharar. and Betty Wilson took parts in the Commencement play. As the Class of ' 37 took regretful leave, the courageous ' 38 ' ers donned the ample footwear of the dear departed, and resolved to carry on. They returned Gehron to the role of leading man, and placed in his supporting cast such able souls as N. J. Williamson, second lead, Marion Rice, script girl, and John Will- mann, production expert in charge of finance, all under the guiding hand of Dr. K. C. Kates. Other able Sophs took over the leadership of Union. Dart. Dickinson Players, I. R. C, and the French Club and ' 38 contributed charter members to three new organizations: The Writers ' Forum, the Camera Club, and the George Club.
