ENTERTAINMENT What fun we've had! The freshman reception - l'm sorry, I didn't get your names - the senior shin- digs where everyone knows everybody. Many future chorus lines will draw inspiration and form from that most attractive chorus line at the iunior banquet. SPEECH The class of 1950 was a most ambitious class. Not content with playing Shakespeare and other artists, many improvised notable works based on the great bard. Strike the flagstaff deep, Sir Frosh. You'll need it to hold on to. Hah! Dost thou make a x knocking noise. Coulds't be thy knees? Speak the speech I pray you, as I pronounced it to you, or mayhap you'd like an F? From this class have come many great speakers from whom we hope to hear much in the days and years to come. is SPORTS We can never cease to admire and praise the splendid work of players, coaches, and all who helped the football team reach the great success it experienced in the senior year of the class of I950. In a few short years T. C. has made a fine name for itself in sports. Basketball, baseball and football teams were made possible by the large number of men in the class of 1950. The many star athletes of these years will long be remembered with pride. GOVERNMENT During our stay at T. C. a dream has become reality, a dream that some day the State of Connecticut would allocate funds for a new college. The first attempt to pass House Bill IOO failed but paved the way for a more vigorous campaign which succeeded. We look for- ward to alumni meetings in a splendid modern build- ing where we can proudly say- We helped. CREATIVE WORK No chronicle of senior achievements would be complete without mention of the final proiects we completed, including an original song for music, chiIdren's stories, puppet shows, and term papers galore. Many of these songs, stories and shows were very good, of artistic merit - that is, we liked them. Indeed if the fine work of the Class of 1950 at Teachers College is an indication of future successes, we can feel certain the field of education will wel- come its members. Memories of friends, good times, and jobs well done fill our minds and give us promise that the Class of 1950 can look forward to its future with assurance. Mary Reardon Marie Reitano
