NU fcRG Sophomore History JANUARY 2, 1919 marks an epoch in the history of Muhlenberg, as a beginning of the reconstruction program of the colleges. Naturally the authorities looked toward the class of 1921 to supply most of the material because the upper classes had been sadlj ' depleted as a re- sult of war conditions. As usual we fulfilled their expectations and enrolled as a unit nearly fifty strong. On account of prolonged measures we were seriously handicapped in our inter-class activities. The unusually strong and united Freshman Class, thru some trick of fate, managed to win the banner scrap as well as the pole fight. Taking advantage of their good fortune, they actually won the first two games of basketball before we were really aware of it. Then the slumbering spirit of the class was aroused from its lethargy and, as a result, in spite of overwhelming odds, we won the next two games and look forward to the series. Our banquet was characteristic of the class, well-managed, well-tempered, and ultimately successful. We have furnished a large number of men for all the sports thus far and entertain brilliant prospects for those to come. We have also been well repre- sented in the Glee Club and the Muhlenberg Weekly Staff. Not content, how ever, with mere temporal laurels we have also made an enviable reputation for ourselves along scholastic lines. In fact, the Sophomore Class is well represented in every form of college activities. We look back with just pride upon our numerous successful efforts and for- ward equally toward new worlds to conquer, always keeping in mind our motto of not only existing but of being of some value in life, and believing with Long- fellow that, “The talent of success is nothing more than doing what you can do well, and doing well whatever you do, without a thought of fame.” Historian. 54
