WSWS UZ! ffm llfililil ,J-bl ...MQ io 28 I thought we were cruel, inhuman and brutal in our treatment of them dur- ing initiation, but how different it was to administer and command the ini- tiation than to be the sufferers in the cause. Camp-and we are once more among our classmates, friends and pals. House and class games held our interest and as usual we, the Seniors, one- time Juniors, became the victors and then Our Red Middy Day, how we worked to have ours as lovely as those gone by. The marching with the accompanying traditional chant, the forming of the figures and lastly the singing of 1928. It was well done. The Goat Rush. Poor Billy, the goat. He was well protected by a barrier of Seniors in Red Middies who would have protected him forever. The final games ended the day. But the most exciting thing of all happened that evening. We had a Hood. Everyone donned raincoats and hats and dug trenches, outlets, and barriers to protect our tents. After working for a few hours with shovels, rakes, hoes and pails we found that our efforts were in vain as the tide was rising higher and higher and gallons and gal- lons of water splashed over the sea wall. This ended our last Fall Camping season. Vacations came and went, the Junior and Senior Proms were given and the College Senior Cabaret attended. How quickly time did fly until our Exhibition was to be given. It was held in the Arena and rated the best ever given in the history of N. H. N. S. G. The contests and spring camp followed. The end of our school career has come. Serenade night when our Juniors sang to us and we were no longer able to start our numeral song made us realize that we are no longer undergraduates. Tomorrow to the strains of our beloved school song we will become a part of a different world and so, to you, who remain, we, the Class of 1928 of N. H. N. S. G., wish success and happiness, and may the memories of the years we spent together linger as long in your memories as it will in ours. RUTH HIRSH. I 621

p aff . My Mil as thing that we had known nothing about-Red Middy Day. How thrilled and surprised we were when the sacred day arrived and we witnessed the performance of the two classes in their traditional uniforms- if we were only Seniors -a thought that ran through many minds. Our out-door life ended all too soon. Fall camping days were over and our indoor work began. But we all looked forward to our first vacation which came at Thanksgiving time. Each and everyone of us was thankful that we had come to New Haven. A series of social events followed. The Senior prom, which was a Christmas dance, Miss Haupt's party in the dining hall, with a beautiful tree and lovely decorations, and then vacation coming with three whole weeks to rest. The Junior Prom was given after our return from vacation. Jahn wags decorated to represent a garden, with silhouettes, palms and a garden ga e. Again a surprise was in store for us. The Seniors gave an exhibition. The ease and grace with which they performed the numerous numbers was remarkable. Tactics, dancing, apparatus and finally the Swford number were all too wonderful for us. Once again we called forth our school spirit. This time the event was much more exciting, as some of our own classmates were concerned, in the Sword Contests. Froebel Open House was next on the social calendar. Our Orchestra and Glee Club rendered a lovely program, and after viewing all the rooms, refreshments were served. We were told that after our Easter vacation we would have to teach on the playgrounds in New Haven. We were very uncertain as to our ability to do this and as the time drew near, we became more and more uneasy, but after the iirst two or three times we were masters of the situa- tion and no longer feared the results. Spring had come and our second camping season started. A class tennis tournament was held to prove a champion. It was very interesting and Pump was declared the winner. A track meet followed and a few school records were broken. The close of our first year came all too soon. Serenade night marked the end. Our songs were sung with the deepest feeling, we dreaded the goodbyes to come. Commencement exercises were held and we had a sad adieu. Our second year. How quickly our Junior days passed, now we are Seniors, almost ready to graduate and leave our Alma Mater. Although Father Time led me from one scene to another there was just enough time for me to see only a short portion of the events that happened our second year, because as we neared the end of the tour of the past, the scenes changed quickly and one by one faded, until the Future completely replaced the past and I was led hurriedly to the outside to await what would happen. The first day and our initiation started. I am sure the Freshmen E611

Blast Mill anil Glwtament .nf the 0112155 nf 1923 To Whom it may concern, and also to those not concerned: We, the class of 1928, have, after undue meditation and with much solemnity, bequeathed the following: All literature concerning natural gymnastics to our dear Dr. Arnold. We know he will cherish these long wanted documents. To Mr. North, as director of the Glee Club, we present the thumbed and worn, but very ancient Csix months oldl and valuable copy of the operetta, entitled, The Tin Pan Parade. We know that the memories connected with this will bring tears to' his eyes and make him a wanCdJ spectre. To Evelyn Crowell goes Lib Wilson's strenuous and precarious posi- tion as captain of the Senior ship during 1929. May she have as good sailing as Lib. Beryl Reichly gets Agnes Bowes' poise and quiet, so that she will stay out of the berlin hot water all the time. To Buggs Sicafoose goes the official capacity of playing jazz between periods, and Ede Oleson's extensive repertoire of pieces. Ros Bennis' ability on apparatus is given to the little Silverman child. Austin's cornfed look and peaches and cream complexion go to any Fresh-- man who has lost that schoolgirl complexion. Demichak gets Eddie Bohan's ambition, and Pop Dowd passes on his shock of beautiful gold hair and all his girls to Max Glasser. Red Eagan gave strict orders that her serious and earnest attitude be given to Marian Ralph, while Muriel Hubbard leaves all monitor duties to Clara Crane. By means of the Ding Dong Theory, Mary Drew's giggles are trans- mitted to Bernice Siegle, and Shep's girl friend, Elinor, is carefully, with much red tape, ceded to Sonny Zahn. Riordan's hotsy totsy ties go to Pete Davin, for special use while May Gifford is around. Wellcome's good marks and ability to reason are given to Curly Donovan, so that his stay in the study hall is assured. Levenstein, alias Mike Murphy, and Kenney, alias Abie Goldstein, reserve their knowledge of the dance-they cannot afford to part with it. Manweiler leaves all private camp pictures, so that Nichols can tantalize the girls still more. l63l
