SOPHOMORE OFFICERS m iUi. Losch, Lone, Moore HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF ' 41 (Foreword. It was feared that manv readers of the yearbook would fail to read this thrilling aceount of the adventures of tlie glorious Class of ' 41 if it were called mereh- Class IIistor ; ho e er, the possibility of such a catastrophe has been cicxerlv eliminated bv heading the article History of the Class of 1941 — for no one can resist reading the exciting narration of the illustrious deeds of the Class of ' 41.) From the erv beginning, wav back in September 1939, it was quite apparent that the Class of 1941 was destined to excel, for we were the largest Freshman class e er to enroll at D. J. C. All through our Freshman ear we conducted our quest for more knowledge in a manner that continually drew the attention of our professors, and the Dean, to our deeds. With the reopening of school for the 1940-1941 term, our illustrious Class of ' 41 continued its adsentures into the realms of higher learning with even greater success than that which marked our achie ements as Freshmen. At the beginning of the first semester we found time to institute a program of culture and instruc- tion for the naive Freshman class, for which the - will no doubt long remember our class. At the Chestnut Part -, we reasserted the superiority of the Sophomore cla,ss: thus becoming the first class to take first honors for two successive years. The predominance of the Class of 1941 scholastically is pro cn by the fact that e cr student on the Dean ' s List was a Sophomore. But e en good thing has, as it has its beginning, also its end. We won ' t say we ' ll wee]3 when the school looses us and the benefits accruing to it through us, for am- ' 41er would be mortified at the thought of anyone even imagining him indulging in so ignoble an act. But we do a])preciatc how you feel about this matter; we are a sympathetic group; we tender ou our sincere consolations. Eighieen
