LA REVUE, NINETEEN TWENTY-FOUR Class Elizabeth Coi.vik . Corresponding Secretary Raymond Huklbrrt Historian Helen Hasty Poet Offi cers Taylor Kirby Statistician Aubrey Miller Orator HoYT Levie Lawyer John: Rogers Thompson Prophet Senior Class History In September, 1920, there assembled on Sunshine Slopes ninety young men and women, a part of which group has survived as the members of the 1924 Senior Class. President Daniels received this green mob mercifully, assuring each one that his desire for knowledge would be satisfied. To prove their sincerity of interest in college life, the class as a whole entered into their activities with the determination to make Birmingham-Southern the better for having attended it. Half of the football and baseball scjuads consisted of men from this class, while in tennis and track it was equally well represented. Dan Cupid played the boys foul, inasmuch as there were only ten girls among the Rats, and Leap Year over half gone. However, these young maidens proved themselves very capable in handling the braver sex. Our Sophomore year began under the able and progressive guidance of our new president, Guy E. Snavely. Although somewhat diminished in enrollment, it kept pace in student life and contributed more participants than any other class. Howard was again, as in our Freshman year, defeated in football. However, the year offered further excitement when Birmingham had her fiftieth birthday, and many masculine members of the class escorted some of the county queens to the several social functions. Here it was 1923, and we were actually Juniors, with hopes of a diploma in the near future. My, but doesn ' t time fly! By this time we had no less than a half dozen representatives in every form of activity on Sunshine Slopes, and still going strong. Too bad, but couldn ' t be helped. Howard, 9; Birmingham-Southern, 7. ' The Spring of 192+ is here, and Senior dignity is quite noticeable, and especially so when the newly-inaugurated Freshman caps are seen being tipped to the disdainful and well-filled Senior derbys. The largest class in the history of Birmingham-Southern is now finishing its college career with a total enrollment of seventy-three. This number includes some special students and a few Juniors, Avho are doubling up in their studies. Our Freshman dreams. Sophomore hopes and Junior prayers are now realized as we stand on the elevated pedestal of Seniordom, ready to step forward into the world of endeavor as college graduates. May we ever carrv before ns the motto of our Alma Mater, FOR CHRIST AND THE REPIBLIC. ' Historian. Page twenty-eight
