Although our goal lies in the future, still a little retrospection will benefit us. Let us, therefore, attempt in the next few pages to reel off the highlights in the history '4 of the 156th Class beginning with: E 'Q THE AGE OF INNOCENCE K Noi even Hereulea' could knock iheir bra1'n.r oui, for they lzaa' none. f -Shakempeare. Fall, 1927. There is commotion in the historic halls of Central. An avalanche A of Sophomores has swept down on the new-comers and, according to tradition, are in the process of subduing them. 'Twas on that day that the bulk of Us Freshies, U X on inquiring the whereabouts of the Auditorium, became familiarized with the X entire building before reaching our objective. In the Auditorium quiet reigned . supreme.

Humiliation quickly followed to burst our bubbles of joy. ,By the end . of the first two weeks we had learned much from that hard task-master-Experb 5 ence. We learned that Mr. Faltermayer's blue pencil meant numerous demerits in the Social Register. Also, the combination of Freshmen and Sophomores in fi the Auditorium did not preserve our dignity. Still, we did make a few friends. That renowned word-broadener, Doc. Althouse, became endeared to us immedi- ately. Certain fortunates had Prof. Spencer for History. That mighty figurehead i W of the gods rules as only Zeus could have done, i.e., heileft unbelievers to their own devices and taught only admiring disciples. Lfil . The beanless soups dished out in the lunchroom benefited us immensely. A There was practically nothing in them to cause indigestion.
