-[ D y V [ MMis HiaaMBa Some of the members of our class after completing their freshman 5rear immediately became sophomores and worked on through the summer. The majority of the class joined them again in September. It was a great reunion, but we missed many of our former classmates who didn ' t return to us. Then we had to become accustomed to l eing upperclassmen — sophomores — instead of lowly freshmen. Natu- rally we had to help the freshmen become part of our school, so we supervised their initiation. Eealizing that during this critical period in history we had a task to do, we became more serious minded than ever. Many of our boys left to serve in the armed forces; other members of our class grad- luited at the end of the spring quarter and went on to other institutions of higher learning, and some started third year work. The rest of us carried on. During these two years together we ' ve had our ups and downs. ])ut it ' s been fun. Upon graduation we will separate, never to meet as one gi ' oup again. Some of us will immediately enter our life ' s work; others will serve their country in this crisis : a few will continue their education. In short, this is our be- ginning. To you freshmen, the future sophomores, we leave our place on the campus — and wish you luck. Left to risht: Frances Collins, President; Martha Bullock, Vice-President; Marjorie Bullock, Secretary- Treasuier.
