SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY In the fall of 1941, we gathered our vast army to begin a march toward graduation. We were led by Brigadier General Beth Gable, Colonel Edward Lahaie. Lieutenant Colonel Mary McKnight, and Major Jean Demmon. As advisor tc Brigadier General Gable, we had Mr. McAllister. We had several minor battles and stopped for one night to have a ‘hard times’ party. Some of our members bought sweaters with the colors of our division, blue and gold, on them. Having won minor honors, the maneuvers for the first year ceased. In this, our second year on the march, we have had Major General Kenneth Catlow, Brigadier General Edward Shipley, Colonel John Sabo, Lieutenant Colonel Marjorie Meyer, and Major James Stephens as our leaders. Mrs. Miller and Miss Wood have been our advisors. We chose the American Beauty Rose as our symbol of rank and have again chosen blue and gold for our colors. With two parties and several other minor victories already won, we bring the march to a halt until next year, when we will advance once again toward our goal. Twenty

FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY Just as it is the duty of the Coast Guards to guard the coast, so we thought it our duty to guard the name of Freshman, to keep it always above suspicion, and to make it an honored name. Through this year we have tried to show our willingness to cooperate, and our ability to be reli ed upon. As our guides we chose Captain Richard Kraft, First Lieutenant Paul Hayden, Second Lieutenant Lois Foust, and Third Lieutenant Delores Thomas. Mr. McAllister was the advisor to the captain. As our insignia we chose the yellow rose. Our motto is “Don’t celebrate a triumph before a victory.” Our special colors are red and gray. Having kept the name of “Freshman” above reproach, and after having won some minor operations, the Coast Guard went off duty till further need for our services. Twenty-Two
