X1Vith a little argument we had con- vinced the Freshman president and some others of that class that they should by all means attend our Banquet-and they did. 'Colazzi's was a scene of wild revelry that night for we were anxious that the spirit of the Freshmen should not lag. To our surprise 1916 showed enough pep to come down to our dinner but fortunately for them some cops drifted around, attracted by their unseemly behavior, and persuaded them not to be rash-whereupon most of them went home and were tucked in their little beds. Some time before breakfast we went home, too. Spring came and with it came the never-to-be-forgotten Sophomore Xlfaddle. Dances, classical and otherwise held the floor in Earl that night. Old Cicero in his corner cracked the plaster on his face, grinning' with delight and aesthetic appreciation. Good times go swiftly by and soon we were lying in bed thinking over the delights of a great night. Again the class had acquitted itself with credit. The dance was a great success. There was one more event before us which was to crown a triumphal year with the greatest Triumph of all. The detailed story of the 1915 Triumph will be found on another page and only the barest mention of that night is necessary here to recall to us the occurrences of every minute. The march up Broadway was one of those impres- sive spectacles which we remember for a life timeg professors, nursemaids, suffragettes, and plain nuts marched arm in arm. welded together by a single purpose-to show that for us the dread a11d mornful required courses were no more. Vlfe reached the Crew quarters in Wfest Hall and gave tnem such a send-off that the next day all that the Navy and Princeton saw of our shell was the stern as it flashed by them: we reached the Commons and for the benefit of those of the Faculty who were present we gave our idea of the model University-eacn class ending with the prompt and eflicient ex- ecution of the Faculty. Dean Keppel said the next day that it was the best Triumph he had ever seen. Thus our Sophomore year ended in a blaze of glory. Xkfe look back on those two years as two of tl1e best years of a lifetime and we look forward to the next two to equal them. As Iuniors we arrived on the Campus early, eager for the coming year. 1917 ar- rived fresh and innocent while 1916 roamed the Campus like half-starved wolves look- ing for prey. VVe took ,I7 to one side and administered such good advice that it went out and trounced 1916 every time the two classes met. Due to the work of an efficient committee, the junior caps reached the Campus at the very start of the year and soon we were decked out in all our glory as regular juniors. NVe started things with a whoop, galloping off with an easily won lnterclass Base- ball championship and coming in a good second in the track meet. Friedrich has been elected captain of the 'Varsity Baseball team, the f1rst junior in many moons to be thus honored. At our first class meeting we gave the other classes a pointer in the right direction by making an appropriation toward the up-keep of the Earl Hall trophy room. lt is to be hoped that some of them will follow our example. Things are go- ing along in great shape and every indication point toward a successful year for the Class. There is much for us to look back at. Wfe have spent two of the best years of a life-time here and those years have lived up to our fondest expectations. The years before us will pass happily and swiftly away and too soon we will have only recollec- tions of our college life. Que of the strongest and best of these will be the memory of our activities as members of the Class of 1915. .4287.T
