CLASS HISTORY Highlight of 1941, our graduation year, will most certainly be Commence- ment Day, June third. But before we think of commencement we must first think of reviewing the highlights of the past four years that we have spent to- gether. Our trials and tribulations had their beginning in the fall of ig 7, when as green and submissive (at times) fresh- men we endured the rigors of initiation. Formal initiation came to a close on Court Night when we revolted and gave our sophomore brethren an interesting time. The next step in our journey toward a higher degree was the election of class officers and the following were selected: Joseph Brownlee, president; Beanis Es- posito, vice-president; Jeanette Segall, secretary; Matthew Feldman, treasurer. Our first social affair was a distinct suc- cess, it being our Hallowe ' en Dance given for our sophomore friends. The annual class picnic was well planned for, but rain dampened our spirits and the hope of a pleasant time. We returned for our sophomore vear with a feeling of exultation because we knew that we would not be the under- dog and we could satiate our desire to dish it out. The following class officers were elected: Thomas Shirlev, president; Jean Thomasin, vice-president; Jeanette Segall, secretary; Rocco Riccardi, treas- urer. We started a line of social events by giving the annual dance for the freshmen. Then followed our unforgettable trip to the Old Cider A ' lill in Union where the class held an enjovable get together. No one can forget the fine time we gave the freshmen on St. Patrick ' s Day, after which we journeyed to a Newark theatre to hear Jimmv Dorsey and his orchestra. We brought the year to a close with the pageant. Athletic Association Banquet, and Commencement. We started our junior year with the group diminished in number but increased in quality. The girls found themselves on the Big Sister Committee and they strove to make a pleasant and enjoyable college entrance for the incoming freshmen. We all had a feeling of being more mature in our thoughts and actions. Thomas Shirley was again elected president of the class, with Constance Neumann as vice-president, Doris Ebner as secretary, and Walter Coralewicz as treasurer. Two memorable social occasions were held by our class. The first was our an- nual Junior Prom which was held in the Starlight Terrace of the Essex House in Newark. The food was fine, the girls ex- otic, and the music enchanting; need we say more? We also attended the Ameri- can Country Dance Society Festival in New York where we participated in many English and American folk dances. The last leg of our journey was started and of cours e a most outstanding feature was our student teaching experience. We also traveled to Cook ' s Pond in Denville for our final class picnic and we shall never forget this memorable occasion. We have reached the end of our trials and tribula- tions and we have had a fine time at our last Athletic Association Banquet and our first Senior Class Night and Commence- ment. As we walk down through the Memorial Gate Posts for the last time as undergraduate students we ' ill start a new adventure but, As we tra ' el o ' er life ' s pathway, Meni ' ry turns again For our faith in Panzer College Ever will remain.
