President. Jim Caruso. Vice president, Bob Santelli, Secretary. Virginia Ann Wolfe Say Betts, it ' s been a long time since we were all together in T. house. Remember Homecoming in November ' 42 when we stayed up dyeing cheese cloth over the little gas stove in Dob ' s room for our decorations? That was our first and last real Homecoming. Sorority and fraternity rushing was elaborate then — nothing like now. Remember the Sig Ep pledges — was it Rube? — pacing the bridge and announcing the time every five minutes. Don ' t think I ' ll ever forget Howdy Holschuh when the Kap pledges had to wear a girl ' s dress for a day. Howdy ' s in the Navy now, Northwestern, I think. Fellas were living in Hillside and Jeffers then and college was normal — until December 7th, and from then on things began to be different. There was summer school for the first time, and our class began to get separated, some sophomores, and some half juniors. Most of us put off our activities until we were sophomores, but then we went after places on the Holcad and Argo. Shorty Donaldson was diver on the swimming team, Ray Bower battled with the Titans. Marcie crowed for Hope in chapel — yes, Hope left, and so did Goldie, and many others whom we still think of as classmates. We went on picnics and had house parties and dances, stretching our imaginations over the gap from our lighthearted freshman year to the more serious times then and ahead. Our junior year — three girls in a room, army men m Browne hall, fewer civilian men on campus, longer assignments, shortened term — only a few of the differences. We did our best to keep Westminster the same for those returning and those coming after us. Our fifth consecutive All-American Holcad was edited by Paul Krakowski, Helen Stafford took over the Argo, and Student Council head was Jim Caruso. We went to chapel oftener and listened harder, praying for those who left empty seats, and hoping for a speedy return. 23
