Eighteen VICTORY Jr 1 1 Once more has a battle been ended, Once more has a victory been won, Over Wayland a shadow descended, The bright shining seniors are done. Never more will old Flewharty's laughter Go pealing through Wayland's bleak hallsg Never more in the cloudy hereafter Can the girls welcome Frank's charming call Ever more will old Wayland be dreary, Never more will A grace a cardg Now the teachers will always grow weary Teaching lessons the Junior think hard. We gaze with much laughter and scorn On these weak, upstarts Juniors-our foes, And may they in wee hours of the morn, Learn the things that we already know. We Seniors are glad we have finished, We're now one step nearer our goal. Our worries have partly deminished, We are hardening wax, in life's mould.

7,,,, ll Twenty OFFICERS CF THE SENICR CLASS 'QESUUE' EARL RAY - - - - - President BILL BOBBITT - - Vice President VALTA RALEY - - - Secretary Dow SMALLIN - - Treasurer LAMAR GUTHRIE - - Reporter Z. T. HUFF - - - Sponsor After a vacation of three short months, the class that, in 1926 was termed as Juniors, assem- bled again. This time, however, it was under the high and dignified order of Seniors. This time with more ambition, more pep and a greater interest in class activities. On account of the surplus energy of the class fwhich had to be disposed of some Wayj it was decided to leave some kind of memorial upon the campus. We recognized the fact that it would probably be many years before another such class, as the Seniors of ?27, would assemble to lead the activities of the dear old- Alma Mater, and thought it best to leave to the school some token to show our appreciation of the good We received from her. This, we decided to erect in the form of a cement Walk, which was to extend from the front steps of the Administration Building to the College arch, which was built by the Class of '25, On this Walk there Was to be a drinking fountain, Where the weary chemistry student might cool his aching head. After much hard Work, long Weeks of saving our pennies, this Walk was completed and now stands --the finished article-a memorial to the Senior Class of '27, The Class of '27 also planted a beautiful elm tree upon the campus and dedicated it to the Col- lege. It is the sincere hope of the class that each succeeding Senior Class may do the same for our dear old W. B. C.
