1911 Class Htstorp LIKE tlie barbarian hordes of old, we as Freshmen swooped down upon Bucknell, routed the Sophs in the class scrap, and then laughed them to scorn by posting up the best Freshmen procs that have ever been known at Bucknell. The palm was ours from the moment we entered College, and there is little wonder that our Freshman banquet at Harrisburg met no resistance, and was declared a grand success . The ' ' old order changed, yielding place to the new and we found our- selves Sophomores with the duty incumbent upon us of maintaining our lofty height— so with well ordered phalanx we met the green buttons on the gridiron and again snatched a victory. Then we held a bancjuet at Shamokin just as successful as the one of the previous year. Our position has always been a lofty one; we have always been monarchs of all we surveyed. As we glance back at the foothills we have climbed, we see men doing nobly on the gridiron, at baseball, and at football, and they have even upheld their reputation at such an important function as the Junior sleigh-ride. But our days are drawing near their close — we have striven always for a high and noble good. We have not been without internal strife, but we have arisen stronger and more united. Have we left any footprints on the sands of time ? At least our departure will have a touch of that sadness and pathos with which the Romans uttered that last farewell Vale, Vale, Vale. This is the last and best tribute of the Class of 191 1 to old Bucknell. IS
