     committee is looking into 
     
     whether or not class 
     
     sweaters will be ordered. 
     
     A few points to remember: 
     
     1) Senior Class meetings, 
     
     will not be held all that 
     
     often, but when they are 
     
     called something important 
     
    
   
   
    
     7 'will be up, so please try 
     
    
   
   
    
     to attend. 
     
     2) Every wall on campus 
     
     is papered with posters 
     
    
   
   
    
     _ that nobody ever reads, but 
     
    
   
   
    
     if you happen to see one 
     
    
   
   
    
     . that has "Seniors" at the 
     
    
   
   
    
     top in big letters, take 
     
     the time to read it. All 
     
     our posters will start that 
     
     way, and all our posters 
     
     will have something 
     
     important to tell you, so 
     
     please read them. We don't 
     
     make them for decoration. 
     
     3) If you see an announce- 
     
     ment or article in the SUN 
     
     starting the same way, read 
     
     it too. The same thing 
     
     applies. “Posters and the 
     
     n are the duly ways 
     
     we have of letting you know 
     
     what's going on. ‘ , 
     
    

    
     The Senior year is without 
     
     a doubt the best year at any 
     
     miversity, and the Class '
