SENIOR CLASS HISTORY o ONE can predict with any assurance of accuracy which of the many char- acteristics or accomplishments of a college graduating class will distinguish it from those annual groups that have gone before in the procession of higher learning at Trinity College, but certainly the present student body thinks of its seniors as men who have had the courage and the initiative to introduce substantial changes at this college so hallowed with tradition. The college, in its one-hundred and fifteenth year as a chartered institution has witnessed the revival of a college literary magazine, The Trinity Review. That tra- ditional collegiate extra-curricular activity, forensic combat, has been reborn amid much enthusiasm. An active drive by the students for a field house was started by the college student body head, Robert Muir, in hope that with the aid of the alumni this dream may at last be realized. Yearly contests of fraternity singing will get under way this spring. And certainly no one denies that their spirit of crusading has helped to make the Soph Hop and the Jesters' production, in conjunction with the Wig and Candle of the Connecticut College for Women, of Sidney Howard's The Late Christopher Bean, great successes, socially, artistically, and, most of all, financially. Time and time again during the last four years figures from the preceding classes have copped the headlines. In fact, the members of the Class of 1939 might well have feared that the lustre of their outwardly more prosaic band would be dimmed in the glamor and clamor surrounding the nationally-known athletes, and- what's more-the optimi of recent years, but now as the final count is taken let it be known that this class of personalities has left an indelible mark in the annals of Trinity.
