The year went quickly by and the Fall of r9o2 found most of us back again eager for work CPD. The new gym. was now up and that pleased us not a little, but after the long Winter siege of dumb bell drills and apparatus work, we were only too glad to get out into the April sunshine. Thus as a dream that passeth in the night did another year roll on, and the next F all found us clinging desperately to the third and next to the last rung of the ladder. Unfortunately some lost their grip and fell splashing into the form below. Somebody, however, threw Burry a life preserver, thus he managed to get back again. In june, we had a big parade and left school with beautiful dreams of the Upper House and the thought of being truly Fifth F ormers. There was a clear sky and a bright sun overhead when on September 16 we took our seats in chapel, and there prayed that we might walk in the right paths, and that our influence might be for the good of those about us. Football was now in full swing, and with Captain Andrus, Blood, Soper and a few others chasing the pesky pigskin, 'o5 was well represented on the gridiron. CIt's more fashionable to call it the checker board.j We succeeded in defeating a Western school that aspired for honors. St. Paul's came down, but some one accidentally spilled some liquid air on their feet, so they turned their backs and set sail for home. We also played Andover-ah ! let us tarry not here, but move on to brighter things. In a hard-fought game on a slippery Held, we closed the season with Hill, the score being 6 to 6. Waller, who emerged from the game with enough real estate on his smiling countenance to get a second mortgage on, saved us from defeat by his unerring toe. Whilst football is still on my mind, ,twould be criminal injustice in failing to speak in a most praiseworthy manner of our illustrious H Creams, who played one game, and won it at that. Its members are so well noted and famous that if I may take your time and the bookis space I shall endeavor to give short statistics. - FREDDY LARK .......

Such were the merits of each individual who helped' compose the creams, their one motto being No swearing allowed -at least, not out loud. But the pigskin has gone to rest until next September so let us not tarry longer here. After football had departed a queer sort of individual was seen around Lawrenceville, who professed to be a phrenologist, and after reading Deak Bond's cranium he took a chance on Tub Waller's pilot house, and to the utter astonishment of the many on-lookers, told Tub that he'd make a good sea captain, or probably a doctor, that he would not mind in the least to get out of bed at 1 A. M. to attend a sick patient, and was of a lovable disposition. QToo bad the gentleman was not better acquainted with Mr. Wallerg he might have guessed closerj The Presidential campaign came, and after a lot of political arguments We all cast our votes at the old bath house. Q Some of the old birds like Stower went home to vote.j It' is needless to say what was the outcome.
