Suddenly a small bcok h(jund in Idack and gold t sj caught my eye and I jiicked it up. Across the front in gold letters were the words ' Class of igag. I immediately opened it and began to read. On September 15, igag, the train [lulled into Anderson bringing the Class of ' ig. Though its members were destined to be green, they were not as bad as some. They soon caught on and took their places in College activities. At the first class meeting, Miss Cordelia Hendenson was elected as our sponsor and Miss Caroline Hurriss as president. With these two leaders we came out with flying colors at the end of the year. Then came the wonderful days for all Freshmen — The Freshman-Sophomore Re- ception. They toiled early and late decorating for the event. Thus the Freshman year closed and the Class of ' 2g became Sophomores, wise and full of pep. Some wise and truthful man has said, You can always tell a Sopho- more, but you can ' t tell him much. But no one has ever dared to limit the ability of a Sophomore to tell things to others. ' When we were Sophomores, we felt that we Tlad been through much experience and had reached the age of maturity; when we looked back over our Freshman year and realized the toils, struggles and insults we were forced to endure before entering the field of a ' wise fool ' .

Two weeks before Commencement, very early in the morning, someone came down the hall calling ' (n ' t up Sophomores, it ' s time to go for daisies. ' Slowly Sopho- mores got ready, took their waste-baskets and went out to snip, snip daisies. Finally enough were gathered and the day came to make the chain. Commencement was no t at all joyous because we had to say farewell to our dear Senior sisters, who had been our loyal friends. You know, there isn ' t anything evolution can ' t do; so, at the end of the year, the Class of ' 2g became Juniors. As Sophomores we thought there was little left to be learned, but many difficult tasks arose. However, there was pleasure mingled in with the hardest ones. The least word spoken about the crook sent a thrill tingling through us. The Seniors hid it far away, but we searched high and low for it. ' A Kiss for Cinderella showed the world that we were a class of real actors. We owe much of the success of our Junior year to Miss Hattie Fay, our sponsor, whom we love so dearly, and to Cleone Jewell, our president. The end of the year brought the exciting event of choosing Sophomores, and with fear and trembling each Senior asked her Soph. Page t ' wcnty-ninc
