History of ' 82. e, the class of ' 82, take this last opportunity to place the record which our class has made before the readers of the Bugle. Ours has been an eventful, if not a particularly successful career. We entered forty men, but the Faculty have, from time to time, taken away those whose influence upon the rest of the College they deemed per- nicious, until now we comprise barely half our original number. As Freshmen, we did as members of that interesting class usually do, showing some cheek (when the Sophomores were not near,) and being taken in the requisite number of times. As Sophomores, considering the prowess o ' the class under our charge, we think thai we bore ourselves quite well. On some occa ions we checked the naturally aggressive spirit of ' s;:, ami mi other occasions we Bhowed the honesty of our intentions by attempting to do mo. o

But we boast more of our record as upper class-men. We took Physics and Psychology without a murmur, thus presenting a striking contrast to the action of previous classes. In the college sports we have done the best that we could. Unfortunate- ly we have always scored defeats in our class contests, and have not had a man upon the college nine since Freshman year. But for all this we make up in boating. Our crew has won two class races and proposes to win one more before we graduate. Our members are not, as a rule, high rankers and owe their college honors to the meagreness of our numbers rather than to ability. We have, as far as we were able, kept up -the college customs, although we acknowledge that in that respect also we have not accom- plished the greatest results. It has been our endeavor to cultivate a feeling of harmony and fellow- ship between the members of our class and the rest of the college, and have succeeded, we think, sufficiently to insure us quite a cordial greeting when we shall, in the dim future, revisit our Alma Mater. This, then, is the history of ' 82. It is short from obvious reasons, and is modestly told because the novelty of that way of doing things will perhaps be pleasing to our class. 21
