o SE TWENTY-TWU NIO ATHLETES By their own admission a class with almost ireakish originality, the Class ot 1936 will be watched with a great deal oi interest during' the next several years. The word originality suits this collection of competent scholars, charming friends, and whimsical mediocrities. As a group they represent What is probably l:'indlay's finest senior class. Athletes, orators, organizers, and lead- ers, they are a curious me- lange. not likely to be for- gotten. Not all outstanding, to be sure, but with more than a few destined for greater things. Rugged individualism has determined the manner in which they have carried on the activities oi their four years at Findlay College. Any attempt to survey their manifold services within the pages ot a single book would do an injustice to them. W'e have all watched them at various stages oi their evolu- tion and remember well their May Days, Home Comings, Harvest Homes. But these activities are only forms into which the individual mem- bers ot the c-lass have breathed lite. lt is, thereiore, fitting that we offer you a few thumbnail sketches, a few brief biographies of these, our departing seniors.
