SOPHOMORE CLASS Sophomores always have to Hve down their reputa- tion, and we beheve that we have succeeded in that respect. Though there have been times which tried our souls and Panzer ' s, we have managed to rise above them and emerge as representative Panzer students. It seems long, long ago that we were young, untried Freshmen. Now, from the wealth of our experience, we can offer advice — if not sage, at least enlightening — to the newcomers to Panzer. We know the road they have to travel before they become those fortunate people, Sophomores ! From our ranks have come an outstanding scholar, Richard Nazzari ; such talented singers as Alan Farner and Robert Mears; such skilled athletes as Lillian O ' Connell, Ted D ' Alessio, Dominic Parise, Ted Reed, and Henry Weil ; such qualified athletic officials as Harry Nowick, Tony Buicko, and Robert Feeney. We are now only Sophomores, and our list of out- standing class members is, as might be expected, small. Someday, when we are members of the Senior Class and have our individual photographs in the Oljmpia, our list of distinguished students about to be graduat- ed will be one of which Panzer may well be proud. Seated: .Robert Feeney, Richard Nazzari, Harry W. Nowick, Irma Mayer, Lillian O ' Connell, Doris Morgan, Martin Davis, George Fessenden, Ted D ' Allesio. Standing: Robert Cornelias, Alan Farner, Robert Bonnet, John B Robert Mears, President, Richard Webb. Henry Weil. Ernest Gnehn Anthony ■ Buick(

JUNIOR CLASS After more than two years of extreme mental con- centration and study, a group of young men and women have arrived at that most enviable of all class- es in the undergraduate hierarchy — the Juniors. From this favorable point we are able to look back on excellent scholastic records and to look forward to our Senior year with all that the last year in college will bring. We remember the confusion of the Freshman days, the self-confidence we acquired when we became SophomoreSj and now we are able to look in retrospect on all those experiences with the mature eye and mind of a Junior. Composed mostly of veterans of World War II, the Junior class has survived the rigors of a physical education curriculum designed to fit them for the proud profession of teaching. As we attempt to steal a glimpse of what may be in store for us in the near future, both in college and after we have graduated, we come to the realization that, while gaining a know- ledge of fact and theory, we have also grown in those illusive qualities that most people call sportsmanship, the ability to get along with others, loyalty and a host of other intangible qualities that are difficult to mea- sure but of utmost importance. We, as a class, have progressed far enough along the educational highway to know the true worth of those qualities and that a good part of our value as teachers will depend upon our ability to inspire those qualities in others.

Those first weeks of finding new classes, and losing them again, soon passed. After hurdling the first obstacle. Court Night, we set our sights for the term ' s final examinations. A rockier or rougher road was never followed. Though the way was long, our trip did offer some lighter moments when we en- countered those pleasant detours — our social events. We soon lost that green tinge which is so character- istic of Freshmen as each of us gradually assumed his responsibilities as a Panzer student. As time went by the students of Panzer became accustomed to us and, of course, we became used to them. Now that the first year is over and we have absorbed the knowledge which our competent faculty has tried so hard to im- part to us, we gird ourselves for the difficult road ahead. [18]
