The McKEISTOREAISr Junior history Four years ago a goodly number of Freshman came to McKendree College to enter into its atmosphere for a term of years, which looked to them, at that time, a century. But soon came the realization that college days pass only too quickly. We came through the Freshman year victorious and entered into the Sophomore year with decreased numbers but, unmolested by the upper- classmen, learned the ways of the world by experience. The Junior year- passed and now we come to the close of our college course realizing with Pope that we cannot here take space to set clown all our memories for, Lulled in the countless chambers of the brain our thoughts are linked by many a hidden chain ; awake but one, and lo, what myriads rise ! But we do wish to recall and to review only a few of the many. Among our number are found four of the last graduates of the Old Academy: Delta Jessop, M. P. Akers, J. B. Zimmerman, and G. O. Karnes. It was through the efforts of members of our class that the Press Club was founded, and that a chapter of Pi Kappa Delta was formed at McKendree. Here the names of Pete Akers and Zim Zimmerman may be mentioned. Again we remember that for two years we were victorious in the in- ter-class basketball tournament and that for three years we were winners of the inter-class track meet. We have had representatives in every form of athletics and it is with especial pride that we point to Monk New- comb as one of us. In Plato, Philo, Clio, Pi Kappa Delta, The Student Association, Y. M., Y. W., the ' 24 McKendrean, and many other activities of the college, mem- bers of the class of ' 25 have taken leading parts. During these four years we have formed a peculiar attachment for our college, an attachment which every McKendrean forms, and we de- part testifying, as many have before us, to the beauty of the Old McKen- dree Spirit. 1926
