THE GRIST TjStstnrg nf Hip (Elaaa nf 1909 When the class of ' 09 first assembled on Kingston Hill, we were just as green as any other bunch of Freshmen. Now, after four years, we can look back and judge of our acts good, bad, and indifferent, if not with entire impartiality, still with more fairness than at the time when they occurred. As a whole we are proud of our record. In our Freshman year we traded flags with the Sophomores and trimmed them in a rush on the top stairs of the dormitory. Three of our men made their R. I. in football that year, and when the basketball season opened, ’09 was easy winner in all the class games. The first outside game was won for the college by the class team. Since then we have furnished the basketball captain for the college team. In other branches of athletics we have always been well represented. For a week during the fall term of our Sophomore year we assisted the Freshmen in finding the spice of life, variety. There were moving pictures, changed on the average twice a day. Even the president took a hand at entertaining. The result was that ’09 was victorious in the second and last, as well as in the first real class rush that Rhode Island College has ever known. Something else which we did in our Sophomore year, and which it gives us more pride to recall was the inaugu- ration of a new social event, the Sophomore Hop. The other classes have kept up with our lead until it has now become one of the regular events of the year. When we became Juniors and upper classmen, work began to claim more attention than anything else. We were willing to leave the fooling to the young ones. One member of the class found time to conceive, and bring to successful completion, a prep, school track meet under the auspices of the college athletic association. Days full of work soon brought us into the Senior class, where more work was waiting. Commencement is now but a short time off. This year it means the Class of ’09; and when we go, we shall leave a record of which we are not ashamed. With us we shall carry a true, deep love for Rhode Island College. 21
