class history Memories, memories, thoughts of duys gone by. This popular refrain of a song of yesterday brings with it cherished thoughts of our college days. Oh, those first Freshman Days! Filled with awe and a sense of expectancy, we donned our dinks ami name lag' and knew we were just “itty-bitty Fro'h. The days of Customs were filled with activities. under the iron rule of Notable Noble Ncsta and the most exalted Ray. After spending some anxious moments before the Freshman Banquet, we officially became a class under the leadership of l)iek Hummel. December biought our first Christmas festivilie- and banquet. In our second semester we had our first opportunity to work together as a class. t this time we successfully held our Frosh Dance, “Ebb-Tide.” Then as Sophs, we were on the other side of the fence. Fragile Agile Ann and Bruno Briner took charge of Fre-hman Customs. The class, led by President Joe Donia, presented two Miccessful dances. Fantasy in Fire and The Shamrock Shu flic. It was during this year that our class acquired its name. The Successful Radicals. In our Junior year we assumed our role as upperclassmen. led again by J«w . we proved that we had a real flare for decorating when we presented the fall spectacular, Starlight of the Seas. Our Junior Prom. Blossom Time, was held at Sunny-brook. Proudly we watched Sonnic, our Queen, emerge from an arbor of dogwood blossoms. With the coming of fall, we approached our Senior year with a mixture of emotions. We realized that graduation would soon Ire upon us and that our college years were only a part of a complete lifetime: however, this realization did not deter us front the exuberant whirl of senior activities. We participated in our last pep rallies, saw our last bonfire and busily engaged in decorating our dorms for our final homecoming. We were quite the sophisticates, as we stage our Senior Ball. High Society. We saw Joan and Dick crowned Lord and Lady of the Ball. That same night, the officers. Joe. la-e. Bonnie and Dick, who had led our class for two years, were elected as our permanent officers. Christmas at Ursinus will be among our fondest memories. How can we ever forget the banquet, the laughter of the dorm parties, the solemn singing of “Silent Night around the Christmas tree and the festive caroling of the fraternities? Spring semester came, and with it a shipwreck party, given by our Ruby and the Spirit Committee. Again we proved our talent by writing and presenting a senior show. We felt a pang of sadness as we participated in our final May Day, and went to our last dinner dances. With a sigh of relief we took our last exams. Finally—there was graduation. During the exercises we sat among our classmates and felt a common bond linking us to each other. Moments as these cannot last, but their effects will last forever. 29
