All aboard for unior, the captain s call found four among he missing, but two newcomers joined our ranks which gave us our present graduating number, twenty-two who leave the portals of our Alma Mater as the Class of 32. With the appearance of Chemistry and Virgil on our curriculum our further success seemed dubious, but on reviving our spirits the outlook seemed less gloomy and our goal more certain. The Seniors were making preparations to leave and we were disheartened at the thought of having to do the same in one short year. It was during the last quarter of this year that the Lionls Call was issued. The co- operation of the four classes made it a success.
