SOPHOMORE CLASS ' 32 Comes Through for G. J. C. !• No matter how active a class may be, or how famous, It must have loyalty to qain lasting recognition. •■•• Two years ago, when our class of ' 32 was formed, loyalty was taken as our theme — loyalty to G. J. C! Every activity was to be grouped around this idea! Every member was to support our college! We were to be the college! Certainly this — loyalty — was our high and noble purpose. Did we hold our course? Did we fulfill our purpose? Did we support G. J. C? Only those not acquainted would ask such a question. But let us re-live our experiences and see just how they all worked toward our goal. Remember our green days? How we all thought we had to obey those terrible (?) frosh rules laid down by the upper classmen? And how soon we found there was no enforcement? Remember? Yes, and how we deliberately broke those rules and laughed at our soph friends? Those were the days when we molded our class spirit! t ' hlow different were those September days from this past year when we had the upper hand. Did the frosh go scot free? They did not! Did they break our rules? Yes, but they suffered the consequences Did they laugh at us? Two swats if they did! Boy, how that high and mighty Court of Inquisition did function — more power to ' em! May it be the start of a real, live school tradition. Puijr Tivcnty-iive

i ' Not only were the frosh subdued by this hectic chastisement, but also in the class day battles. After little opposition in the bag-rush and the tie-up, they were com- pletely inundated in that nice oozy black mud that awaited the losers of the tug-o ' -war. How those babes did wallow around in that pit — just as though they were used to it. If experience is a lesson, the present frosh will surely know how to treat any Incoming freshles. Besides working as a unit in our class activities, ' 32 has contributed many individual stars to the college. In track, who can forget Captain Andree, Stevens, Cline, Staf- ford, and their fighting spirit, clean sportsmanship, and many abilities? Football, too, was dominated by sophomores — remember Captain Lewis, Mallory, Smithson, Carter, and Kelly? hlow they did fight for S. J. C! And basketball — Captain Buckley, MacDonald, Isaacs, and Roach — all stellar players. In fact, all competitive sports +eams — tennis, baseball, swimming, golf — were teams composed mainly of ' 32 men. •i ' Forensic activity Is another field In which the class of ' 32 has excelled. Even when freshmen, our debaters were feared.. Remember the challenge President Nixon hurled at the sophs? And they absolutely refused to meet us! Recognition came not only from within our college, but also from without. In fact, during these past two years, our debaters — Nixon, RIst, Melnik, hlyink, and the rest — have become so well known for their ability that In Intercollegiate circles it Is Slendale that must be defeated If any team strives to win. In oratory and extempore speaking too, have members of ' 32 risen to the top in competition. Many of us will always remember the first place Dllley won over all the southland at the Redlands contest, and the first Melnik garnered at Riverside. Truly these accomplishments exemplify the abilities of our class and our loyalty to our Alma Mater. ' Then again, In Dramatics and Music It is ' 32 who has come through for G. J. C! Great enthusiasm has always accompanied their productions and renditions. •I ' Who can forget Gipsy Jim, and then the musical operetta lolanthe ? How we thrilled at the renditions of the chorus, the leads, and the orchestra! All, every one of these productions, were superb. But they should have been, with such ' 32 stars as Phillips, Selkirk, Carter, Smylle, Henry in music, and Carroll and Offlll in dramatics. ' But far beyond all of the above sketches of loyalty to our college lies that loyalty that has constantly been shown by every member of our glorious class. It is the bond that has held us together. It is the bond we shall always remember — Loyalty to G.J. C. ' ' The spring of 1932 is now passing. We have reached our goal; the end of our work draws near. We must leave the college that we have learned to love; we must also leave one another. Never again will the halls re-echo with our voices; some of us may never return. But we are happy, for we have left behind us a record of success. We have done our part. We have won our race, and victory brings happi- ness! Bon voyage, class of ' 32! I ' lii f Tiuinly-iix
