T196 Class of 1949 Nineteen hundred forty-eight marked the beginning of a new School year for thousands of students the world over. But at Port- land Junior College the Senior Class marked the year for the College History. Only a few days before the national presidential election, P.J.C. held One of its own. No national political contest was ever more rabidly contested. Without cause the Senior Class split into two factions; older vet- erans and younger veterans Her purposes of designationl and the fight was carried on with all the political judo at hand . . . no holds barred. The younger faction with more energy to expend formed itself into the uCommittee For Better Student Representation and im- mediately launched literary missles bordering on the defamatory and libelous. Down to the wire the Committee fought: holding secret meetings to map new and better strategies, forming more feasible slates; and for the unsure, forming pacts with the other side. Diplo- macy, duplicity; machine politics, theoretical politics; coalitions within factions, coalitions between factions; secret pacts, agreements, treaties, deals; mimeogtaph machines, oratory, the U. S. mails all saw service in this yeafs election of Senior Class officers at Portland Junior College. Paralleling the work of the Student Council, the Senior Class of Portland Junior College piled up its own share of permanent firsts. First of all came the belief that Portland Junior College will some day receive its proper recognition. Then to back up that conhdence came two other firsts? The first first was the appointment of a badly needed committee to probe into the details of the class rings for which all students raised such a clamor. Chaired by Philip Kates, the committee composed of Mark Andrews, Ronald Smith, Richard Noyes, and Henry Latini not only selected a design and rings of a quality corresponding to the uniqueness of the College and Student Body, but arranged for pins as well. The next first in the annals of the College history was the pro- curement of a class gift by a committee of such seniors as Jerry Howard, Committee Chairman, and his able assistants, Ray Leeman, Scott Hoar, Ralph Roberts, Jed Bridges, and Larry Campbell. The gift chosen by the class . . . a stuffed Stags head for the Auditorium . . is a. credit to the members of the Class of ,49.
