Then the trustees decided on Highland Park for our new campus site. Wl1Cl1 we moved out there ill 1898, there were only a few ranch houses,.a camp-meeting ground, and a beer gar- den. Squirrel holes riddled the grain field where we built the college. We had some good times there in Highland Park. Not what you'd call good times, perhaps. There weren't any 6'mixers -dancing wasn't allowed. What did we do? Well, for one thing the homes of the neighborhood were always open to us. ln the evenings we stood around the piano singing and talking. Had time for conversation then. Those of us who lived in the college 6cHouses,' formed clubs, the Owls and Apes, fraternities -4. -. WJ

The DOT'S almost met an untimely death when that picture was published-the one with the low-cut necklines. And the LIZ'S caused quite a scandal when they produced MThe Reveries of a Bachelor. The A.S.O.C. organized campus activities in 1905. We had some great athletes-Bazata in football. 6'Speedy Rush and Horace Cleland in track. Still, an oratorical contest drew almost as large a crowd as a football game. That's when Dean Cleland was on the debate team. Yes, we were up and coming in those days. Had lots of new ideas-new ideas that became traditions The class of 1905 started the ivy procession, the class tree and the class numerals. No wonder that class was outstanding with men like Horace Cleland, Dan Hammack, Percy Goodell and Robinson Jeffers. 16
