V A- THE JUNIOR CLASS We the present Junior class, entered college as the largest Freshman class in the school at that time. Because of the war and the accelerated program the group was broken up before long, leaving only six members of our original class. However, the returning veterans have made it possible for we Juniors to enter our senior year as a much larger class. Successive changes have given the class several sets of officers. Louis Peragallo, how- ever, served as our president most of the time until his recent entrance into the Army. As Juniors, the class has elected William Hale as president; Elaine Richmond, vice-presi- dent; Virginia Cemarada, secretary, and Harold Lefkowitz, treasurer. Looking back over the three years of college life, we have many fond memories. As Freshmen, we experienced a great thrill in leaving for park classes until the Sophomores administered the traditional hardening process. In general, the experiences we encount- ered during the initiation stand out as events long to be remembered. As a highlight of the sophomore year, the class sponsored a Hallowe ' en Dance, which turned out to be one of the most successful affairs of the term. In addition to this, our swim parties, tea dances, senior balls, and athletic games have all aided in giving us a well rounded college program. Considering the group as a whole, you will see that we have done our utmost to profit from this program. Page 20

THE SOPHOMORE CLASS The Sophomore class, consisting of sixty-five students, twenty-six of whom were girls and approximately thirty of whom were veterans, had the distinction of being the first post-war class to enter Panzer. After the first two weeks of school, during which we underwent our initiation, we finally settled down to the more serious side of College life. During our first year at Panzer, we became known as the class which did things, for we were well represented in almost every extra-curricular activity of the school, and a good number of freshman names appeared on the honor roll. It was also our social duty to sponsor a square dance. This without a word of exaggeration was a huge success, so much so that a repeat performance was given this year. As the class entered its second year, the number of its members was reduced to thirty, thirteen of whom were girls. The first two weeks were spent in the training of the new Freshmen in the ways of Panzer College. Following this short period, we again settled down to business and proceeded to try to keep our good reputation. This not only included work, but also acquainting ourselves with the large numbers of new students. Our officers this year have been: president, Richard Forster ; vice-president, Dorothy Greulich ; secretary, Antoinette Serruto ; treasurer, David Roderick. 3 Page 21
