has C2647 BE IT KNOWN that the Class of 1941 being as sound in mind and body as can be expected in this day and age, does hereby declare its last will and testament. It bequeathes its most cherished possessions, inanimate of course, to the classes of 1942, -3, and -4 with permission to pawn them if they need money for their treasuries. We know how it is.

Yacht Club, which will soon be organized. With such equipment, theylll be sure to win all the races.

They teach 'em how to knit down in Mount Holl-y. R. PAYN
