From our roster we supplied the major, two captains and four lieutenants in the R. O. T. C. In baseball.and basketball the majority of the “stars” were from our ranks. While in football seven of the varsity were Seniors, and it might be interesting to know that of those seven Conway and Hayden were three year letter men, Lee and Pallatroni were two year letter men. The Glee Clubs also shared the good fortune by having many Seniors among them. The newly formed Dramatic Club included two Seniors who took the leading roles in their last big production. During the last half of the Senior year we were busy in electing com- mittees for the Banquet, Senior “Prom.” and the Senior Dance from which we realized a large sum of money. At last all was over and our four years in school seemed to have passed quickly. For the last time as a class we assembled in the Auditorium on Graduation night to bid farewell to our dear Alma Mater and to thank her for all the benefits derived, for all that we are and hope to be hereafter.
