Bill Perry, a simple nature poet,' wandered through the -Arboretum years after graduation trying to get inspiration enough to write a reunion poem for his class, but fate would not have it thus.

The absence of factional- issues has- produced a sense of unity and good fellowship seldom equaled, and never excelled in the an nals of University classes. We have been peculiarly fortunate , in our selec- Ltion of presidents. Nixon, Satterfield, and Ellison, presidents in our Fresh man, Sophomore, and Junior ; years respectively, discharged the duties . of the office in a manner which reflected credit 'upon themselves and upon the Class. The Class elected Carr presi dent for its Senior year, bestowing upon him the highest honor of which an undergraduate can. be the recipient. Learning is the primary purpose for which a university exists. Nineteen-Twenty-Nine is above the aver age class in scholarship. Some thirty of its members were elected to, mem bership in Phi Beta Kappa.; Literary Activities The Class has been well represent ed in the literary life of the campus.

' ' vv Prominent in Athletics It is in athletic prowess that the Class' surpasses all its predecessors. In football last f all, several Seniors participated in a smashing defeat of our four-year-old Nemesis, Wake Forest. Much credit for this triumph can be attributed to the sterling work of. Seniors Schwartz, Holt, Howard, Shuler, Foard, Presson, and Donahoe. On last Thanksgiving Day these same Seniors participated in another dec! sive triumph over our ancient rivals, Virginia. A few days later, to make the season just a bit more successful, pur powerful team - very successfully defeated Duke for the state champion ship.v Certain it is that the play of our All-Southern center, Schwartz will be- recorded . as; equal to "the greatest . in' University football his tory.;; r :v i ' ' ', Hackney, Satterfield, Cathey, Har per, and .
