. Quvrtu A laiziurg nf the 011355 nf '27 The freshman class of last year, who had worked so hard during their first year at D'Youville, again entered the stately doors of our college on the nineteenth of September. We found we were Sophomores and, oh, the joy of having passed one milestone in our college career. Uur classroom was now designated Sophomore g the letters above the door seemed almost mystic to us, we were so unused to our new rank. Each one of us made a resolution to do far better this year. On the twentyffourth of September we held our class elections. The fortyfnine girls chose as officers for the ensuing year: President, Mary Cecelia Cross, Vice' President, Margaret Ball, Secretary, Evelyn Kunkleg Treasurer, Catherine Keogh. Later in the month we established a system of class dues to meet our expenses. October the twentyfeighth was the date set for the entertainment of our sucf cessors. Since the witching hour was close at hand the sorority rooms were decor' ated in the orange and black oi Hallowe'en. Dancing followed a course supper and then a program of charades and a play in pantomime was offered for the entertain' ment of our guests. At ten o'clock guests and hostesses departed, leaving the scene of their late frolic to any ghosts who might be abroad. Through the kindness of Mother Superior we were given a half-holiday Armis' tice Day, and also Washington's and Lincoln's birthdays. Our class was represented in the observance of National Education Week when two of our girls were among those who gave addresses. Gertrude McGee spoke on the subject of Health Education and Helen Bickel on Parish Schools. We chose Eileen Hickey as our business manager, Evelyn Stutts and Helen Bickel as class editors of the D'Youvillian. Mid-years, the time of trial for everyone, came and went during January. When we had caught our breath again and settled down to work we found the reports were not hopeless. D'YlouvillefHoly Angels Day was enjoyed by our class for the second time in our college life. We are looking forward to more to come. Soon our days as Sophomores will be ended and we shall be Juniors. But we have our doubts about this matter-shall we be as happy then as now? We do not see how we can be. 79
