R. V HARMAN Advisor IUNIOR COLLEGE III CLASS OFFICERS IUNIQR COLLEGE CLASS OF 1937 The realization that Northeast Junior College is to be discontinued in 1939 did not reduce the efforts of the undergraduates to attain a high achievement record this year. On the contrary, that fact acted as a stimulus, creating a desire in every student to better all previous records, both as individuals and as a class. Ability, such as possessed by the class of '37, is the foundation of future success. Ability, however, without, the initiative to utilize it, is worthless. But 'the enthusiasm, orig- inality, and efficiency, together with the super-abundance of initiative evidenced by this class, removes any shadow of doubt as to their success in the future. No goal, however remote and unattainable it may seem, is impossible for them to achieve. 19 i3f's'- THE NoR'EAsTER
