SENIOR CLASS at the college J. Armstrong. A. Woldon. M. Mitchell CLASS JEAN ARMSTRONG.President DELMA FINDLAY.Vice President Compare a Green Knight with a tree. She was only a seed when she was planted here ( along with a hundred and forty-four others. She felt as if she were to be buried forever—never to grow up and become an honored member of the forest. She was too insignificant—only a freshman. But she felt better when she and others of her lowly class almost won the soccer cup. As a sapling she branched out enough to win the soccer cup, the tennis and basketball cups, and, best of all, the Stunt Night cup. Before she knew it she was taking an upperclass¬ man ' s place in Banks Hall. She made a special place in her heart, now, for the newest seeds, whom she called Sisters, sheltering them as best she could OFFICERS MARELLA MITCHELL.Secretary ALICE WELDON.Treasurer beneath her spreading branches. She tried, but just couldn ' t keep her awards—except one—the Stunt Night cup. Then, quite suddenly one day, she awoke to find herself a senior and about to outgrow the familiar forest. And while her branches reached toward the great wide spaces beyond, she felt a trifle nostalgic about leaving the shelter she had known so long. She was planted, watered, cultivated, and pruned in the forest. And now the forest has finished its job. Our Green Knight is free. Free to do as she pleases? Yes. But free from mem¬ ories? Never. For a seed can never forget what gave it life and understanding. Nor can a Green Knight for¬ get Wesleyan. 23
