enior ,xhbforg lf you can dream -and we could-sew enty-three not-so-green Freshmen, not-such-a- long four years ago. We dreamed of college and we realized our dream and now-now, this is it! We came that fall of 1944 to a campus re- cently bereft of the Air Corps, and a campus with a very much depleted stock of men. Cam- pus couples were at a minimum and activities were practically nil, but we had fun, all sorts of fun. We experienced Freshman initiation, we went to and acted in plays,-remember Lady Precious Stream and Cry Havoc ?-We at- tended the never-to-be-forgotten Gay 90's par- ty at Walton Hall, and we heard the famous bal- lad-singer, Earl Spicer. That was the year we wrote letters to unknown service boys, many of whom have since returned to school and are now Our Honor Guests The Familiar Walk i The FUlUI'e is Yours . - - You'll Never Make Soldiers real people to us. We ioined sororities, had a lovely May Day, went to Oglebay Park for a grand school picnic and marked it up as a good year. The war took its toll and many of our lads went to the service, among them Gabe Maize, Bob Masteller, Joe Hanawalt, Herb Kaprieve, Dick Wegemer and Jerry Marcinak. But then the war was over and we were back in school for another year. And, wonder above wonders, there were lots of men on the campus. The good old days of which we had heard so much were on the way back-tribunal board, class dances, fraternities, sports, women were in Var- sity Hall, andthe much-heard-of Hanna Hall was once more in full swing. Little Theater presented Jane Eyre, Time for Romance,' and Feathers in a Gale, Julian de Gray gave a successful con- cert, the debate team was active and many new The Last Mile ..,.

In 1946-47, our Junior year, Presidents Mil- ler Aiken and Ralph Garrison steered us through another exhilarating term. We saw the birth of the Uniontown Center, the Cardinal, a new addi- Third Generation Graduates Senior dance. Many seniors trekked down Mor- QCITI Street daily to do their practice teaching, fhe College Players presented new hits, and in general it was a bang-up year. So, this is it! lf you can dream --the poem 90es. Well, we did and now our dream is com- pletely and irrevocably realized. We're glad but yet, a bit sorry. We've had a grand time, we've loved every minute of it, we hate to go, but even dreams must sometime come to an end. Educators, Teachers, Christians tion to Walton Hall, Madison Hall, the Carnival, and a swell sports program. The campus swarmed with seekers after knowledge, the vet- erans program being the mainstay ofthe college enrollment. May Day was even held outdoors with our class sending Martha Bartosh and Betty King to the royal court. And then, year of all years, T947-48! Waynesburg College reached a new high in en- rollment. Woods Hall and the Old Mill took their places in the college setup. The ground was broken for the new stadium, the basketball team was one ofthe best ever, and the wrestling team really the best ever.
