Senior Class History Wm ZZZ! Zzzz! Buzzzzzl James! Will you get up! It is time to go to work. Ohhhhhh! Oh, mother, I just had the most excitingdream. Well, son, if it is that fascinating to you, it will be, indeed, more interesting to me. Tell me about it. It was this way, mother: I dreamed of a visit to a zoo where I saw many species of animals. However, my interest centered upon a small enclosure in which there were four varieties of bugs-the freshbugs, the sophbugs, the junebugs, and the seniorbugs-socalled for their age. At first I was intent upon watching the freshbugs at their work. They were organized in a society called the freshmen. They were very industrious for they participated in many functions of the combined bug family, such as hikes, plays, sports, and other social events. I I now came to the next section of the enclosure and centered my eyes upon the sophbugs. This organization was somewhat similar to the former, but they assumed the title of sophomores. Their foolishness was revealed by their actions, however, not to be outdone by their lessers, they too starred in many functions with greater skill and zeal than the freshbugs. Tired of their carefreeness I betook myself to that section in which the junebugs were housed. They were the most flattering fellows I ever saw. jolly juniors , they called themselves. They took everything with a laugh. Neverthe- less, they too had their moments of seriousness, for they sparkled in music, art, and sports. - Finally I came to the most dignified CFD variety of bugs known to meg they were the seniorbugs. These fellows were the most advanced of them all and illustrated it by being most successful in their tasks. Seniors was the title of their organization. They excelled in sports, dramatics, music, and art. They were now approaching the end of their scholastic career and were about to be set free from their environment to obtain greater responsibilities. I then awoke with this thought in my mind: To classmates now, we bid adieu And hope that they will carry through The colors of our well-known home 'Till, as alumni, we again are known. -Leonard Stephan.
