Just as our second year was fuller than the first, so it followed that the third was better than the second. We had charge of the llCollegian, college paper under the direction of Payne as its capable editor and Betty Grier, its fiery little business manager. We're proud too, to have Bessy on the Social Committee. We notice that all of the Juniors are not in the picture. Those missing are: Petie Schmidt, lanet Thomas, Maxine Weil, and Dorothy Zellers. Again in February we attended the Senior Prom and were more than taken by the glamor of it all. All through the year we sold practically everything that would appeal and bring profit, for we had to make good with the Junior Prom. Remember how we hoped it would be clear, and all the fun we had? Each year finds the members of our class adding other honors to their lists, just like the proverbial feather in the cap. This would include Zeta Phi, Thalia, and Alpha Psi Omega. Well, next year we will be Seniors and I know it is the hope of every one that it will be the most glorious year of our lives. First Row:-D. Comfort, M. Clark, D. Townley, E. Grier, D. Freed, C. McKibben. Second Row:aK. Flume, l. Aborn, l. Payne, E. Baxter, S. Stauffer. Third Row:-E. Keely, J. Wagner, M. Karl, W. Howeth, 1. George. r: iorty-tive

gullio'l CZQAA' cyiifO'zy WE are almost Seniors! To be different the Class of '39 started off with a Steering Crew whose duty it was to guide us until we had elected officers. On top of this came Rushl' and we were wound around the Sophomore's fingers like a piece of string, so that we wouldn't forget who was boss. However at the Freshman Garden Party we were able to spread our feathers, for we were the hostesses of that event, our first responsibility. As we returned Sophomores, the main idea was to have a successful HRush and under able leadership we managed very well, thank you. This was a memorable year, for during the Christmas holidays we did the light idid I say lighm fantastic to the strains of B. Goodman. Upon our return to school we were more than happy to go to the Senior Prom, in that lull between Christmas and Spring. Oh, we also gave a Spring Tea Dance with a most perfect day helping us out. Then we heard, HEveryone in their places? Shoot! No, we weren't imitating the Spanish Civil War or the Sino- Iapanese War, we were listening to the directions that were aiding us in acting before an honest to goodness moving picture camera. A picture in which many prominent girls of our class took part. DOROTHY TOWNLEY, President. ELIZABETH GRIER, Vice-President. MARJORIE CLARK, Secretary-Treasurer.

agoflgomoze Cling defiato'zy . . You can always tell a sophomore. But you cannot tell her much. SO runs the song that the Class of 1940 has borne uncom- plainingly this year. 'Tis not timidity that is the cause for our reticence but a slightly egotistical feeling that the song rings true; for are we not the largest sophomore class to register in our Alma Mater? And are we not the survivors of a freshman class who was the instigator of those inspired phrases such as Hquaffin around, Hsatchel, yeah stuff, and Woo-woo! Back up! ? Looking back down the long stretch of a year between the simple title of frosh and the exalted one of sophs, we note With justifiable pride that we are still holding our own in club memberships, sports, and positively shining when it comes to dates. Sometimes, since all of us are a little bit sentimental down in under over last year, we find time to ramble and reminisce about the days when we were the Rushees and daydreamed of the far-off time when we, in our glory, could be the Rushers. Ah, idle dreams! Now that our dreams have come true, we are inclined to admit that they were more of a BETSY EWRY President. MADELINE MAY Vice-President. HELEN BOELSEN, Secretary-Treasurer. forty-six
