Ira Hammer, who efficiently acted as toastmaster littingly introduced the first toast Sophomore Sophistriesv by Mr. Troup. Mr Troup told of the graduating Senior Class as he had found them when they were Sophomores and what he would do if he were graduating. In response to Mr. Troup's toast, Oma Ogden, a Senior, gave A Guardian Presence at the end of the second course. She told how Mr. Troup had guarded her through her high school perils.
