ass istory The class of '51 they told us . . . how dim and distant that seemed . . . big sisters welcomed us with open arms . . . but sophomores soon took over to haze us to their fiendish hearts' content . . . the tug of war was our first major victory at Moravian . . . how free it felt to stroll in the front door . . . we further proved our worth by taking the hockey trophy . . . and before we'd completely mas- tered the Alma Mater, we had our first experience with Morning Star . . . Christmas Vespers made us suddenly feel like a part of Moravian . . . by the time we helped with the Spring Festival we belonged It was with some srnugness we hustled back as sophomores . . . so happy were we to greet old friends . . . it seemed odd to hear the Two-Year Secs speak of graduation . . . Christmas saw them all spruced up in their best blacks . . . can another year be gone so quickly, we moaned as final exams loomed before us . . . we heard the sad news of Dr. l-leath's departure . . . the fact remained that we would soon be upperclassmen. Iuniors, I just can't believe it, each one of us said as we began to register for another term . . . about the same time we peeked around to catch a glimpse of our new President, Mr. Weinland . . . it took no more than one of Mrs. Weinland's delightful teas to assure us that our new boss was destined to be a friend too . . . with much pride we recall our Iunior Prom and the super- duper advertising that set the entire school on its ear, and incidentally pepped up more productions at Moravian than we'd care to brag about . . . Debbie was our queen, a mighty pretty one . . . Lois Shafer as an attendant and class president, even changed gowns to keep us guessing . . . Betsey Tait rounded out our beautiful belles . . . this was the year Fern Bachman broke an ankle for the glory of the class basketball team . . . med-techs began to become acquainted with their hospitals . . . we made a real picnic of daisy picking, and produced a very superior daisy chain. This is it . . . our last time around the course . . . there's a special feeling that comes with being a senior . . . again we made big plans for our Senior Ball . . . Craig Ward, who was recuperating from T.B., made the sweetest dolls to carry out the Cinderella theme . . . lune Shafer chose this night to announce her engagement . . . we won the basketball trophy for the fourth straight year . . . it was nice to help start the tradition of a formal Thanksgiving dinner . . . Christmas Vespers . , . the end was in sight . . . Debbie looked lovely as she crowned Mary Iane at the Iunior Prom . . . we were truly proud of Fern Bach- man as Miss Moravian . . . now graduation . . . many weddings . . . we all promise to return next homecoming sure.
