Every major and minor activity in the School saw some Freshman starring in it. In sports, we had football, basketball and baseball men. Our names appeared on the spelling team and the Oratorical Contest. The Dart and UNION staffs welcomed many Freshmen, eager and willing to learn the secrets of publishing a school magazine. The fraternities, clubs, committees, plays, and social ac- tivities of the School also received their quota of Freshmen. And with the exams as a finale for this great year. we. the Freshman Class, close our books and eagerly await the next year when we, as Sophomores, can achieve even greater victories. % Twenty -seven

FRESHMAN CLASS CLASS OFFICERS Frank Schneider - - . . . President Janet Stratton - . - - ice- President Helen English ----- Secretary Grover Powell ----- Treasurer At ' IIj CLASS HISTORY THE month of September. 1938, saw not only the launching of the Greater Dickinson Building Program but the launch- ing of what we consider to be the greatest Freshman class to enter Dickinson ' s halls. One of the first great undertakings of our class was the election of our officers. After the votes were counted it was found that Frank Schneider had been elected President; Janet Stratton, Vice-President; Helen English, Secretary; and Grover Powell, Treasurer. After enduring the jibes and taunts and hazing of the Sophomore class and coming through with flying colors, we be- came full fledged students of Dickinson. Then v e astonished the whole School by breaking all precedents and winning all the events at the annual Chestnut Party held at Kiwanis. Everyone had an unforgettable amount of fun, but the Sophomores were somewhat dismayed a few weeks later to see the name of the Freshman Class engraved on the Chestnut Roll of Honor. Tiventy-six

SENIOR PREPARATORY CLASS CLASS OFFICERS Kenneth StoFER President Joseph HeeNEY - . - - Vice-President Jo Ellen Mackenzie - - - Secretary John J. Freeman ----- Treasurer l i,; UNDAUNTED by the records of previous classes, this year ' s Senior Preparatory Class forged ahead in every respect to b ecome one of the outstanding organizations on the cam- pus. The election of officers was somewhat delayed, coming shortly before the Christmas recess. At this time, being very well acquainted with each other, we voted for the candidates for the four major offices. The seats of Vice-President, Treas- urer, and Secretary were undecidedly taken by Joe Heeney, Jack Freeman and Jo Ellen MacKenzie, respectively. As for the office of President, there were a few more votes cast than number in the class, hence, the election for that office was declared void and we voted again. Kenneth Stofer was finally elected President. Hardly time enough for the officers to settle in their seats, Christmas vacation came from which we all returned ready to make the new year a success. Calling in our members who had become active in other organizations such as Y. W. C. A., Y. M. C. A., choir, dramatics, football, basketball, and other clubs, we had a large meeting deciding on dues and pictures for the Dart. The next big event was the Greater Dickinson Banquet in which our class was fully represented. After spring vacation the remaining activities that we took part in were the oratorical contest, the Senior Prom, May Day, and baseball, all of which served to break up the monotony of study. Exams brought the year to a close, and now as alumnus we hope to return some day and reminisce of our pleasant ex- periences we had at Dickinson, and to recall that great Class of 39. Tu- ' enly eight
