THE BLUSHING FROSH .jr.. represents the typical member of the class of 40 when he entered btate college ' way back in ' 36. His rosy aspect extended to the nether regions from the crack of OceotI paddles as hazing and Traditions Court made him their natural victim. Reaction against upper class discrimination drove him to assert himself by painting his class numerals in red letters in conspicuous campus spots. Hazers reacted with more hazing. THE SADIST SOPH and his OceotI paddle record the ascensio n of the class of 40 to official, hazers and their descension to the second largest class in the school. Defeated their rival freshmen in the pushball contest to retain superiority if not majority. Managed a successful class picnic at El Monte Park in the fall semester. Spring and its warmer evenings turned Soph thoughts to hay- riding. THE STUDYING JUNIOR typifies tradition of junior level remaining most inactive class on campus. Largest elected cabinet of all classes found greatest job was making excuses for inactivity. Only event scheduled by the class of ' 40 during their junior year was a Junior-Senior prom supported by the treasuries of both classes, which never became the traditional affair it was predestined. Mainly the class studied as juniors, hoping to become seniors. THE MIGHTY SENIOR with his puffed out chest thinks he is big stuff now that the class of ' 40 has reached it ' s Year. He shells out the largest amount of class dues paid on campus, muses about his impressive appearance in stately cap and gown. Has jolly good-fellow attitude toward profs and deans, studies somewhat. Is too busy with activities to worry about going on WPA after he graduates — in true Scarlett O ' Hara fashion he will think about that tomorrow. SENIORS 24
