@oUeye S yfi M t ne The last sophomore graduating class of Roberts Junior College is now looking into the future, hoping to be the first senior class of Roberts Wesleyan College. Look¬ ing into the past, this illustrious group entered Roberts as the largest single class ever to be enrolled. The aggressiveness and spirit which have always marked this class was vividly portrayed by its ability in capturing and destroying the flag of its opponents for two successive years, a feat accomplished but once in the history of the school. This ability of accomplishment was displayed again when the class of 49 spon¬ sored the annual Freshman-Sophomore banquet, which will long be cherished among the fondest memories of all who attended. After assuming the responsibility of being the upper class of the school, this group enjoyed planning and participating in the crowning events of life at Roberts — the class night program and the skip hike. Now this class is at the crossroads, some members will go to other schools, some will go to make their place in the world, and still others will remain here at Roberts. Wherever the members of this class go, they will take with them the glow of Christian fellowship and cooperation which has been manifested in all the activities of this organization. The success of this class, spiritually and materially, has been furthered by the gracious supervision of Dean and Mrs. Markey who have worked unceasingly.
