Youth went 05 to college. September twelfth, nineteen. hundred and thirty-eight. The campus of Central College welcomed old and new students. The college halls echoed happily with foot- steps and voices of old friends. Students, parents, faculty, and alumni rarribled idly over the beloved walks, perched on the library steps, lingered at the old bell, rushed eagerly through the halls. The old familiar faces -many were gone forever. And our hearts were tinged with sadness at the thought of pleasant memories. Yet there were strange, new countenances, strange, new personalities which aroused our interest, provoked our curiosity. Freshmen . . . bewildered, happy, fasci- nating creatures! A hundred and thirty stammering, blushing, homesick adolescents. They cluttered the halls and stepped on our toes and asked idiotic questions. And when they had registered and their college ca- reers were definitely settled they looked ready to cry when lVlother and Father start- ed homeward. But the gang back home was forgot- ten with the advent of the College Mixer. In long dresses and knife-edged trousers we hastened to the gym. Here was life, ani- mation, vivacity, and as the crowd dwindled about eleven o'clock, leaving only the spon- sors-the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A:- we sighed with complete contentment and the satisfaction of an ideal evening, a lively program, a romantic moonlight stroll, a savory snack and a thrilling date. But freshmen have their troubles: one lovely afternoon the sophs gave them a muddy wetting at the end of a rope in Ver lVleer's Pond. And only a few days later the Student Council issued that humiliate ing-to-the-freshmen and ludicrous-to-the upperclassmen decree, the Green Cap Edict. Wlxereupon for six weeks our campus was beautihed by the sight of bright green visor- caps on the heads of all freshmen. College life . . . new friendships . . . evening strolls . . . dormitory feeds . . . hours of study . . . tennis matches . . . hopes . . . dreams . . . visions . . . the promise of a richer, fuller life. li, t .-...E t ..,rt
