AND BEST WISHES. Baker Chapel on Wednesday morning,
April 9, was the scene of the annual in-
~~~~;~ vestiture ceremonies. Ninet.y-nine mem-

with academic costume. The speaker of
the occasion was Miss Mary Olive

The ceremonies were preceded by a
procession from Smith Hall to Baker
Chapel. Led by the faculty, in cap and
gown, with the colorful hoods of the
higher degrees, the seniors 'marched
solemnly to receive for.mally the right
to wear their new regalia.
In her addl'ess, Miss Ebaugh told the
seniors that they were receiving the
formal acknowledgment that they had
completed Successfuly four years of col-

rated in various ways during their foul'
years of Work. In the next ten years a
different rating will hold however.
Miss Ebaugh outlined three things that
would dominate this rating. These were
"the will to work, clear thinking and a
optimism."
