Senior Class The many duties of a senior, as well as procrastina- tion, have caused me to delay so that I can no longer write a literary masterpiece that will live down through the ages, but must limit this to a few of the many scat- tered thoughts in the mind of a senior about to gradu- ate. These will, no doubt, be read by the Seniors, glanced at by the Juniors, scanned by the Sophomores, and overlooked entirely by the Freshmen in their eager- ness to see their own bright and shining faces in this -annual publication. A class history is as much a necessary evil as a class three foil. When it is all summed up, however, we have had much the same classes, parties, experiences, and hard work as our predecessors. Naturally we like to think our labors have been more difficult and our pleasures more enjoyable. It seems like four long centuries ago that sixty-five budding students were imbued' with but one thought- PASS ANATOMY! Three' decades ago the uppermost thought was PASS HEAD AND NECK AND ,MA- TERIA MEDICA! Two years ago the burning desire was to GET THROUGH ORAL DIAGNOSIS, ORAL PATHOLOGY, AND ANESTHESIA! And now only last fall it seemed that if only we could finish OPERATIVE, TEST FOIL, SET UP, SPECIAL PATHOLOGY, AND COMPLETE THE REQUIREMENTS, Utopia would surely be ours. Each succeeding year seemed to bring more and more worries, creating the desire and ambition to bass on to better fields. Some of us will reach the goal we have set for ourselves-success. We will each have our sorrows and triumphs, our successes and failures. From now on we have only ourselves to account to. Our roads will be of our own engineering. There will be no one to admonish us or wake us from our mental lethargies. We have been trained well in our profes- sion. That is the foundation. .The rest of the struc- ture of our lives will take the architectural form of our own will and initiative. C. M. COOPER, JR. l -- .,.,.. L. I i ANDREW B. ANDERSON JOHN H.
