Blue and Gold ln our Freshman year, we were given a reception by the Sophomores, and later in the year We gave a party to, welcome the Sub-Scrubs into our recently adopted school. We took an active part in school activities. In our Sophomore year, intelligence began to be stamped on our countenances. Many of our number became members of the Honor Society and one entered the ranks of debate. Several were on the athletic teams, to which they brought much honor. As Juniors, we claimed the title of upperclassmen and set a fine example for those younger than we. When the call came for gridiron men, our boys were right there. We took part in basketball, baseball, tennis, hockey, swimming, and track. Athletics was not our only achievement, for our Junior Play, Turn to the Right, proved a wonderful success. As our Junior class days drew to a close, we entertained the Seniors with the customary Junior-Senior Reception. In the fall of 1925, it was with proud hearts that we graced the front seats in assemblies-the Senior Htrade-markf, We have had the privilege and responsibility of putting the new Constitution into practical use. In sports, debate, dramatics, and in the literary art, the BLUE AND GOLD of 1926 being our great production, we have indeed made this last, our crowning year. SENIOR DITCH DAY A happy crowd of enthusiastic and peppy Seniors gathered at the City Park in the wee sma' hours of the Monday morning of February the sixth. Much anxiety had been caused the night before on account of the rain, but still they optimistically declared they would get to Baldy or drown. Very few Seniors had such pleasant dreams that night that they forgot to arise in time the next morning. I After arriving at the destination feither in Fords or on footj, hiking was the chief diversion, although many others were enjoyed. The more ambitious of the party reached the top of Old Baldy for at least they said they didj. Then, as high altitude is conductive to great appetites, all lunches were devoured to the last morsel. As a good deal of snow had fallen the night before, many dignified personages came home with clean faces. The fire in the tavern was almost smothered in its effort to heat up the big crowd. Even the thought of how grief-stricken and heart-broken the underclassmen were, because of the Seniors' absence, did not seem to faze them, for they had a most wonder- ful time.

SUTHERLAND SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Mr. Clayes, members of the faculty, and fellow students: It is with deepest and most conflicting of emotions that we present the story of the Class of 1926. On Thurs- day, June the third, our victorious career will be completed. The members of this class entered the school in September, 1922, and, though now we conduct ourselves with a strange statuesque dignity, we were once like all mortal scrublets. At such re- collections, as Cicero says, I could Weep for tears. Suffice it to say that, in time, shyness and ignorance have been overcome. -W Yi 'WY Seventeen
