Class of 1 940 UNION YNAGES WAR! Skirmishes with backsliders, battles with agitators, and vehement attacks on inactivity provided for the class of 1940 a course of action synonymous with our yearbook's theme. Although the class suffered a bit from stalemate at the opening of school in September, a big drive which called for extensive character investigation by the ad' visers and officers culminated in the selection of the senior committees. Most active among these groups were the cap and gown and play selection committees, whose problems gave rise to heated discussions and necessitated weeks of negotiating. Meetiiig attack with counterfattack, members of each of these two commit' tees repulsed their opponents and succeeded, finally, in establishing a pact of peace. V Genial Bob Glupker, senior president, Seymour Leven, vicefpresidentg Helen Rigiero, secretary, and Ruth Sonneveldt and Chester Kabza, treasurersg with the able assistance of the class advisers, Miss Thomasma and Mr. Voss, stood foremost in sponsoring a liberal administration.
