The Class of 1940 has been truly one of Freshmen. Mr. John C. Winston says that that which is fresh is “in good condition,” ‘lively,’ “pure and cool,” “refreshing.” That he adds “‘inexperi- enced’ has hardly been impeding to the Freshmen. From the eve- ning of September 20, they have been the nucleus about which life at Knox has radiated. It was quite natural that during “rush” week the Frosh shoula be the center of attention. I|t was only proper that at the ‘““Pump- handle’ they should be the main attraction. But that was not the termination of the glory of the Freshmen. In their enthusiasm for athletics the spirit of the class has been proven. In their representation in the various stage productions its dramatic ability has been observed. In their predominance in debating and the |.R.C. its oratorical genius has been brought to public eye. In their participation in orchestra, band, and choirs, its musical inclination has been heard. In the contributions from the Freshmen to the STUDENT Staff, the SIWASHER, the GALE, and L.M.1., the literary talent of the ciass of ’40 has been clearly seen. In their frequent mention by “Jinks” and “The Knocks Student,” its human traits have been re- vealed. In their wholehearted attendance at Freshman gather- ings, its spirit of cooperation has been witnessed. In their accept- ance of the traditional green caps and hairbows, and the horrors of “Hell Week,” its willingness to “Play the part’ has been amply certified. In their prompt assuming of the character of college students, its adaptability nas been proven. Thus has the spirit of the Freshmen been made clear to Knox. Hail the Class of ’40! in a. “Ay ay Hazing of Freshman Coeds Ze
