Robert lnsley missing from the picture. dowel' School Demanding their right to a place in the sun, the grade school has made their personality felt amid the oaks ol Flintridge. Lusty growing athletes and scholars have rather amazed the staid members of the senior school. Coopera- tion yes, but subjugation never has been the cry of this personality plus group, headed by Tom Winter with the aid ot lim Stearns and Iohn Baldwin. However, the upper classes have come to admire the irrepressables tor their quick wits, budding athletic prowess and good scholarship. Even the Seniors depend on these Colts, hardly realizing it, for services as ushers, as ball boys, and as enthusiastic rooters. For the best of Plintridge rooters in volume oi voice and spirit are these members of the younger set. 33

Lett to right Spencer Murray Ioe McLain Gilbert Smith, Brll Miller, and Bob Streander r 1- S Il m 0 n A freshman, as a rule, in the opinion of the freshman, is Gods happy-ga lucky gift ot the poor suffering heathen on the earth. As he enters the fresh' man class he realizes that he has now become one of the fellows . But con- trary to the ordinary, this year our fledglings are a meek and gentle lot, Though small in number, the class speaks well for itself in the school events. McLain swims a nice 220 and plays on the golf team. Smith played on the basketball and baseball teams and did some swimming. Murray holds up his end of the scholastic duties along with the other two. Bob Streander went East at mid year and was doing well to that point, So, even though the fresh- man class is notoriously beaten by the upper classes, ours was able to muster sufficient strength to hold its own in school activities. 32

Aside from their regular scholastic competitions, they have had several out ot the classroom activities.

Another trip, this time to the lessup Dairies, is planned tor early May. lohn Ridland and lerry Fainer welcomed Black-Foxe in the dual meet by swimming the length ot the pool bearing signs. Iohn also won the writing award at mid-term. Donald White is well on the way toward earning the book award, while Allan Ware and Rodney Schweinhard are racing tor the Table Manners prize. Cully Sudler managed to get second place in the All- Grade School Spelling Bee and our other member, David Van Name, is leading in the second semester writing contest. 34
