Heppy ,-lli Class History HROUGHOUT its stay in Farm School The Class of Twenty-five has made a record of which it is proud. Our accomplishments will long be remembered after we graduate. Our Infancy In March, 1922, we entered and for one whole week had a great time ex- plaining in detail our history and am- bitions to the attentive upper classmeng then came the S. S. A. and we were prop- erly HJ initiated and pronounced full- iiedged Frosh. It was the last real S. S. A. and we will never forget it. Classes began in earnest and our Farm work started. It was a real test and many of our classmates fell by the way- side. Our associations with the upper classmen instilled that N. F. S. spirit in us and practice began for the Freshman- Junior Baseball Game. With grim joy we squelched the Juniors in our first fight, by the score of 6 runs to 4. We contributed Stringer, Regal, Borushik, Mart Cohien, Rosenblum and Sobel, to the varsity baseball team. Of course the Juniors declared our baseball win luck. That we had a horseshoe around our necks, but we proceeded to prove that it was skill, not brute strength, such as they depended on and in the Fall once more showed our superiority in athletics and outplayed them in football. The score at the last whistle was 3 to 0 in our favor. We had strengthened the varsity football team with Goldstein and Alexander. To crown our success we sponsored a Freshman-Junior Banquet. Can you imagine all the hearts tand-Q ?J-J broken at the affair. All of the time wasn't confined to eating, however, much to the regret of some of those present. The speeches were some of the livest, new- est, straight-from-the-shoulder talks that have been delivered in Farm School. It was the greatest Freshman Banquet in the history of the school. We Grow This first year of hard work and self- denial had proven too much for some of our boys and we entered our Junior year with thirty-two men. Our recent knocks and slams, still tingling, so plen- tifully and unstintingly rendered by the graduated Senior class, especially Lan- dau, Malkin, Platt and Abromowitz, and added to this our still fresh battle wounds served to make us hard-hearted Juniors. We had the Freshmen com- pletely overwhelmed and cowed--for a detailed account of our iron-handed atroci- ties I referryou to the future Seniors. PAGE NINETEEN'
