What la load for the shoulders of three is the dignity of the whole college. bkikvk The First College Baseball game that the Reserves played in the spring of '83 was the Kenyon game at Gambier, early in May, when they were beaten by a score of 11 to 10. Hkvkvk On May 30, 1883, the game between Oberlin and Reserve, Reserve made 15 errors and Oberlin chalked up only 12. In the Days of Old the various classes had their characteristic Howls. Class of '85-HRah-Rah-Rah-quinquetoo tinginta. Class of '86-Rah-Ray-Ray-Poop. FROM THE JUNIOR CLASS OF '85 Two jolly years ago thirty-three bash- ful and modest youngsters disembarked at Hudson, and very timidly inquired the way to the College. Today we are only seventeen strong, and three of us are women, but in spite of these and other disadvantages, we are the pride of the whole College. In 1839, students at Hudson had to scrub their floors, whitewash their walls, fire their own stoves, cut their own wood, empty their own ashes, and get their water from the pump outside. Pkvkvk In 1834, examinations were cumula- tive: at the end of the first term students were examined on that rerm's work, at the end of the second term on two terms' work, and so on till in the junior year there was a grand finale for the survivors called the Junior Exhibition. Plfblfvk The First College Dance occurred at Weisgerber's Hall Nov. 27, 1883. 3124214 The class of '03 were either terrors or they bragged a lot. Their slogan was Naughty Three.

WEST 47TH AND TRAIN AVENUE MElrose 4280 WHAT I THINK OF WESTERN RESERVE UNIVERSITY AS A SCHOOL. SCHOOL or EDUCATION STUDENTS FRESHMAN: ' I find school life highly enjoyable. Activities, school spirit and student en- deavors are very much in evidence and are very successfully carried on. I believe School of Education offers a student as many opportunities as a college possibly can. JUNIOR: The School of Education strikes me as an institution representative of a high school on a larger scale. The instructors and professors are capable and efficient, but the student life on the campus is certainly very monotonous at times due to lack of interest in the school on the part of the students. This is caused, for the most part, by the fact that the majority of students are residents of Cleveland and their attendance at college is largely a continuance of their high school days. SENIOR: - V In these last of my college days, I find the School ofEducation an enjoyable, delightful school. Though my views of the college have undergone many varia- tions during the course of my attendance, I am sincerely convinced that all the benefits that one may possibly derive from going to college are obtainable to a student who desires them. The School of Education is a well organized and care- fully conducted institution of higher learning, and well deserves the praise of its students. Pl!

Out of the blackness a breathless, excited man strode up the steps to the village doctor's house. His incessant shouting and clamoring awoke the good doctor from his deep slumber. What is it? What's the trouble? demanded the irate medical man as he dressed. Quick, doctor, an emergency case -out on the Sugartree Ridge road, cried the man. In a few moments the doctor had his trusty white horse hitched to his buggy and the two men were swal- lowed up into the night. Now Sugar- tree Ridge road was a good eight miles from the doctor's residence so you can understand that the ride was long and dreary. As the pair neared lonely Sugar- tree Ridge, the doctor's passenger came to life. Doctor,', he said, what is your fee ?', l usually charge live dollars for a night case. Fine, here is your live dollars for your trouble. You see, none of those damn hack drivers in town would take me Ollt here for less than eight dollars. V Teacher: What is your name, little boy?
