J IM RICHARDSON President LOU BONANNI Vice-President Senior History The Senior Class entered their last year with a burst of enthusiasm, determined to make their final semesters at Wilkes as successful as the preceding ones. The first matter of business on the agenda was a spirited contest for class offices. When the final ballots had been tabulated, James Richardson had been elected president, Louis Bonanni vice-president, Robert Sanders secretary, and Donald Law treasurer. To help the freshmen become better acquainted with the students and faculty of Wilkes, the seniors' first social event was informal, a country- style farmer dance. The affair had enthusiastic support by the student body and accomplished its objective of promoting good friendship and school spirit. In March, the seniors staged the second annual Senior Spectacle, an evening of entertainment by the seniors and the faculty who met in battle on the basketball court. The affair filled the gymnasium with a large crowd as plenty of laughter and action rolled through the evening. The Junior Class later honored the Class of 52 with a dinner-dance at McClintock Hall. The event touched off a series of events where seniors would honor and be honored in their last days of academic study. Most remembered by our class, will be the Senior Dinner Dance given by the administrative department of the college, as faculty and future alumni of Wilkes met socially. With funds from the class treasury, the seniors have prepared their gift, a stone bench, which is under construction and will be presented in June. This gift will be in appreciation to Wilkes College. Although we will no longer roam the campus that has become so familiar to us, we will always remember the many happy and valuable experiences that we have had while college students. In future years as we part and take our place in all walks of life, Wilkes will not be forgotten. Whatever our success may be, we can never lose sight of the fact that much of that success is a result of teaching and guidance we received while here. As the time of farewell draws near, and as the four years we have spent here flash back before our eyes, we say to Wilkes, iiWell done, and so long for now . .
