E ICR DON KIESTER M. MCCRACKEN LILLIAN ANDERSON President Vice President Secretary-Trcasurer It doesn't seem possible that it has been four years since the class of '41 entered college but here we are. Many of those bashful fresh- men have this year assumed positions of re- sponsibility and fulfilled them at least as well as they could. While probably not the most studious class, it yet has many outstanding members. After all, isn't there some truth in the statement that one Shouldn't let studies interfere with a college education? Take the field of athletics for example. Co-captains Bainbridge and DeVault worked hard and well to build up a successful football team. Other seniors on the team were Louie Dye and Cappy McCormick. In Basketball, Bill Trent has played an even better game than in previous years and has received many honors as a result. Don Kiester and Chuck Bain- bridge have also been regular first team men for the fourth year. Quite indespensable in both sports was Amby Dollar as manager. Two senior girls, Lillian Anderson and Barbara Nichols, were attendants to the Home- coming queen in October. The Department of music is well represent- ed by Nlary Nlartha Hoar on both organ and piano. She also has an exceptionally high academic record. There are many seniors who have worked part, if not most, of their way through college. It may be Ruth lris Heald at the switchboard who connects you with your waiting party or tries to find information varying from so-and- so's whereabouts to the name of the oldest alumni. The library assistant who locates that certain book you have vaguely in mind may be Byrda Leonard, Neva Reynolds, or Nlargaret lVlcCracken. Louie Dye also does janitor work there. The Chronicle Editor, Phil Ellis, has worked long hours to put out a good school paper, an addition to the hours he works as electrician and general handy man on the campus and elsewhere. If a member of the girls' swimming class starts to drown, it is Mer- ridy Hoar who jumps to the rescue. She also acts as a capable assistant in bowling, physical education, and first aid classes. In keeping with their superior knowledge and experience tahemj most of the presidents of organizations are seniors. Don Kiester, in addition to being president ofthe senior class, is president of the student council. Neva Reynolds has graciously-and patiently-filled the office of house president, not an easy job by any means. Lillian Anderson is president of Home Economics Club, Nlargaret lVlcCracken of the Y. W. C. A., Ardeth Anderson of Y. M. C. A. after his return to school the second semester, Nlerridy Hoar of Secondary Teachers, an organization started this year and consisting of those upperclassmen working toward a teaching position in high school. Six seniors were honored this year by being named for the Who's Who of American Col- leges yearbook. They arewArdeth Anderson, Charles Bainbridge, Louis Dye, Philip Ellis, Nlargaret McCi'acken, and Barbara Nichols. Selection is based upon scholarship, character,
