In spite of the war we came back in the fall of 1943 resolved to make the best of conditions that were forced upon us. It was our senior year and we were determined to have a memorable one. Jim Marshall, our last president, aided us greatly in this aim. During our absence in the summer the Navy had established a V-12 unit at Ursinus. The men were trained by their own personnel but shared many classes with the civilians. Their arrival changed the campus considerably. A military air prevailed,and most of us felt proud and flattered that the Navy was a part of our college. The sailors enlivened campus activities. ‘Mid-Week Hops' were given for their enjoyment and the gym was predominately dotted with suits of navy blue. The navy men counteracted the Ursinus man shortage, and helped to make the Senior Ball a successful termination to our dance-giving at Ursinus. SOPH RULES INITIATION OLD TIMERS' DAY NOVEMBER I 940 And now, the last step graduation. We find that those who were with us only last year at this time have left. Last September, Betty Boger, 'Tex Currens, Betty Freeman, Dorothy Graninger, Marian Grow, •Kitty Harbach, Ken Hayes, Tom Schonfeld, Dean Steward, Bob Tredinnick, and Alice Zimmerman all left us; while Inge Benda, Jim Boswell, Ethel Detwiler, 'Ag' Dyer, Peg Heller, Jean Smyth, Glen Stewart, ‘Tris Ter-showska, Janet Weierbach, Jeanne Wisler, Charlotte Wo 1fe, andJane Zulick departed in February. Yet these four years seem very short as we recall them. The events of our college days will never escape from our memories. For all of us, Ursinus has been a profitable, a pleasant, and a paramount experience.
