CLASS Mist Carnes entertains the „ rl fl.un »« • «P« d •— A. »«« ' b«to e M.y 30th. ACTIVITIES There is no banner over this soccer story, although the juniors went to the finals only to be defeated by the sophomores. But a double-column head over the basketball story an¬ nounces that the juniors won the championship. And then it all leads to the Senior Section which is the most revealing section in the whole Journal. It is here that the seniors tell of their mix¬ ture of joy and regret at the thought of writing their last story. They win a double header on the front page as they, after three years of going to the finals, finally win the Soccer Championship and the cup. The story of the stunt says the seniors were awarded second place. An unusual feature of this section is one in which the seniors express their attitudes and views along the lines of their four years at Wesleyan and what it means to be a senior and ready to graduate. There are state¬ ments referring to the Thanksgiving banquet and the peculiar feeling that this banquet was their last. Things to be remembered are: the songs of the carollcrs at Christmas time, the excitement of soccer and basket¬ ball, the constant rush to classes and labs, and trips to the pharm. The Senior Class has won its final double-column head, has written its last box-feature. The presses are rolling off the memories that the class of 1940 will read in their Jour¬ nal when they re¬ member Wesleyan. By Margaret Hunter.
