Wells FOREWORD Many years ago, when I was a very little boy, I came to Central with a group which called itself the Class of 19255. From that moment on, I have watched history being made through the efforts of this group. This account of their career should not be only interesting and amusing, but also it should be highly educational. It sets a fine example! In order to make the way easier for those who follow, I shall write these worthy traditions in such a simple manner, that even the unlettered, pagan 1B,s may receive the light which is so graciously offered them. Willem Hendrik Van G. Wells WHENCE WE CAME We live under the shadow of a gigantic question mark, don't we? What are we here for, anyhow? We know, of course, that we are here for a purpose, but just what that is we are uncertain. We know but little of when we actually commenced to startle the world with our brilliance, nevertheless we are keenly conscious that we did that at an early age. Like our very remote ancestors, we were at first unable to walk erect. Our language which is now used by all about us was then in its first stages of evolution. We conversed by gurgling da-da and Glllubl I l' Traces of this original speech still remain with us, since it has recently been discovered after much research that the words Hot Dog! came from the primitive Og dobl , which was the term we first used Qto convey the impression that we required nourishment. We made daily progress in every way, managing in the meantime to shed a superabundance of luminance upon the admiring crowds which constantly sur- rounded us. Gradually we acquired our taste for crab salad and alligator pears: so by the time we were able to feed ourselves, we had already formed definite tastes. About this time also, we began to consider paper, shoes, and pins as unedible. In the meantime our lungs had developed, and we were well able to attract greater attention to ourselves. As time flew by, we entered-- THE GREEN AGE We became more and more certain of our perfection. Then one day our dis- illusionment ended. We became acquainted with a terrible device called '6school . Although we dreaded to encounter this horror, some unknown force suddenly pulled us into the midst of this maelstrom, and we found ourselves helplessly con- fined to its depths. We began to lose our former self-confidence, and by the time we had entered the junior high school stage we were shy little creatures maintaining an infinite faith in Santa Claus, and just loving to do our home lessons. This was our green age. At this time, even our color senses were so affected that our complexions were spoken of as being green in appearance. Now we encountered terrible de- E .-E C235 F 'f 77 53 F a at -A as E Q ' I ffl - WI , - - - - - -1m.eE..I2Q EE? W W3 EW 53 W W EI? W
