 lkGC( 11opat . In dramatics, the Class of 1921 has taken a great part, producing the best actors that Blake has ever had. This year almost every member of the class took a leading role in one of the plays. Last fall we came back to school as dignified Seniors. We were glad that it was to be our last year, but at the same time we were sorry to leave Blake, which had been the scene of many a struggle. Since it was to be our last year, we wanted to make a better showing than ever. With this in view, we settled right down to work and have done our utmost throughout the whole year. Do or die has been our motto the entire year. The football team last fall is the only championship team in the history of Blake. Seven of the players of the team were Seniors. These players were, Captain Krogness, Frost, Osborne, Velic, Lugsdin, and Stabeck. The basketball team this winter was not quite as successful as the football team in the number of games won, but still we had a good season. Captain Osborne, Frost and Krogness were the Senior members of the team. I'nder Captain Osborne, the outlook for the baseball team seems very bright. Osborne, Frost and Krogness are veterans of last year’s team. These men are the mainstays of the team, and with them as such, Blake should have a good team. The Blake Union has taken a keen interest in the affairs of the Class of 21. Almost every member in the class is a member of that dignified and honorable society. It has helped the members of ’21 a great deal in their speaking. We realize we are not perfect, although we have tried manfully to reach the high degree of perfection for which Blake stands. How well we have succeeded is not for us to say. you must be the judge. As wc step out of the ranks of the student body into the Alumni, there comes to us an intermingled feeling of regret and joy. Regret for the passing of the old. Joy for the coming of the new. This, then, is the history of the Class of '21. To you it is a chapter added to the history of Blake. To us it is the prologue to Life. 16 M. X. STABECK
