Thr EASTERN s -Y - ,Vineleen 7'ivunly1!it'4' Class History of january 1925 By Aucia XYIZIR N a cold, bleak day in january, 19Zl, a group of huddled, frightened, but willing Saxon warriors were brought into a vast hall before King Mann,This noble kingassigned to them asa class the task of winning a beautiful maiden, Diploma. Diploma lived in a mighty castle, Education, which was surrounded by a huge moat, Commencement. Four high mountains, these warriors were told, towered on the road which led to this famous stronghold, Education. Each successive mountain rose higher than giants: First Year, Second Year, Third Year, and Fourth Year. There were pitfalls, sloughs, mazes, quicksand, and monsters, many too hideous to be mentioned. The danger, however, most feared by these doughty warriors, was the many eyed ogres. The rumor ran that these ogres even had eyes in the backs of their heads. These warriors have now discovered that some. in fact most of these terrifying ogres, commonly called Teachers, were really only friendly spirits in this threatening disguise. The Savons, with flying green banners dedicated to XYodin, God of XYar, advanced along the road to conquer terrible First Year. I fear to remind you of the dreadful part the Fates took in this battle. Many times the monster Grendel joined in and then these great Saxons despaired, Among the aids First Year employed to slaughter the brave warriors were terri- fying bells. The Army knew not whether these bells were to call them to battle or to retreat, and so complicated was the system that, invariably, they did the wrong thing. Also there were Fours, who held the captured braves in a frightful and deadly den, Ninth Hour. How many devices the captured employed to escape! Fours have even followed this group all through their battles and con- tinued lo capture some of the faithful. Many times the Saxons were lost. There seemed to be millions of paths. There was one path worse than all others. Hungry Road, leading to a fearsome place-the Lunchroom. Besides all of these trials, First Year's last resort was a mysterious, deadly concoction, called Algebra. By mixing up x's, y's, -'s, -I-'s, equations, factors, and square roots Cwhy, oh why didn't they use round roots?j First Year had a poison almost deadly to minds still fresh and unsuspecting. Even small doses paralyzed one. The champion of the brave ones, however, like Beowolf, Stanley Zimmerman, led them to victory. First Year was overcome! Other classes had slain their thousands, but january 1925 had slain its tens of thousands. The Saxon warriors now ceased to be curious, to be laughed at, or to be marvelled about, because they could be so very dumb. They no longer wore their locker keys around their necks on a ribbon. They began to discover virtues and charms in themselves, which strangely enough no one else had ever noticed. Titled Sophomores!-bigoted, cynical, conceited people of the world. Contrary to all precedent, they again chose green for their color, but instead of the brilliant shade they had used, the warriors now chose a shade all of them loved and have kept ever since, Olive Green. 28
