Competition at an end, Biaisdell, Rugg, S+over, Spaulding, Hoyle, Dufcher, Shock, and McColl enjoy Mr s. McCarthy ' s -fine picnic snacks. ENERGETIC AND CAPABLE PRES- ident Kolts and vice-president Sher- nnan nnade an effort to combat the Junior slump with such successful class activities as a minstrel show and a skating party. In March, everyone looked in on and a few helped with glittering prom decorations. Web-footed Juniors flooded the coop patio and paddled about, lighting floating candles to complete the Oz-land atmosphere. Nan McQuiston designed pronn decorations which turned the coop ballroom into the Ozian Emerald City. President Kolts thoughtfully slices away at a castle wall for Jr. Prom decorations.

Juniors Jr. officers: Stokes, Tyler, Sherman, Townsend, and president Kolts planned a varied social program. JUNIORS, SETTLING DOWN TO A FIELD OF CON- centration found upper division work less obvious in con- tent than Freshman-Sophomore survey courses. On North campus the artificial division between frat and non-frat men remained to plague attempts at creation of a class spirit; the women, back together in Harwood after a year of distribution from College Avenue to the borders of Blanchard Park, found reunion pleasant but incomplete. First Junior Class party featured novel relay races. Joan Adgie ties a neat bow as Munz, Colburn, Gustafson, Pauls, Adgie, Sarinana, Riffenburgh, Friis, Shafer, watch. Mary Canby participates enthusiastically in the back- ground as Cathy Marshall discovers the limit of tensile strength of a raw egg.

Seniors Senior officers: Women ' s rep. Hamilton, sec. Rohwer, historian Waldo, men ' s rep. Bovard, freas. Lockett, pres. Seely, and vice-pres. Arzt. FOR THE SENIORS THE BEST PART of college lay behind. Ahead lay comprehensives and the rather ter- rifying prospect of the end of 16 years of education. The resignation of Bob Newton left vacant the class presidency which was filled by Don Seely in March. Under the joint leadership seniors organized a banquet at the Ponnona Country Club and filled out their social program with class card par- ties. But social functions were rather inadequate — by the end of May most of the seniors had concluded that comprehensives were a device whose chief purpose was to make departing Pomonans happy to be departing. February Graduation — elated graduates Mais and McClure were welcomed into the ranks of college grads by Ryburg and Hilton.
