Julian is somewhat bashful, but in him it seems a virtue. He is very seldom boistrous and noisy, so he is naturally a friend of the teachers. Possessing a most becoming blush, he gets by with a great deal. Although he doesnyt participate in athletics very much he is a staunch sup- porter.

Class History of 731 CHAPTER I 0X an early day in September 1927, forty-six little Freshmen gathered out in front of the school. trying to look a little bigger than we were, in hope that we might be taken for Juniors or at least Sophomores. Not that we thought it an honor to be Sophomores. We just wanted to be considered of some importance in the high school, and we had been told many times that Freshies did not count. However, after we had been in school for a short time, we found that we did count. As most of the upperclassmen and teachers were watching closely to see what kind of a group the new class was going to make, we attracted as much attention as any class except perhaps, the Seniors. The news of the boiler's bursting was received nowhere with greater joy than in Room 11, the home of the Freshmen. This extension of the Christmas holidays was really a great joy after four months work. Considering that we were Freshmen, we took an unusually large part in the school athfetics. Four of our boys were on the football squad, two on the varsity, and two girls on the regular basketball team. Besides all this, much to everyone's surprise, our girls won the inter-class basketball championship. At last when exams were over tsome of us having done well, and some not so well P, our teachers breathed a sigh of relief and turned us out of school. CHAPTER. II The following fall we came hack to school full of pep and feeling that we were it, tl fear we tried to make the freshmen feel that we were also.l We were an enormous class-so enormous that it took three rooms to hold us. Early in the term a class meeting was called for the purpose of selecting oilicers, colors, motto, and flowers. After much debating, more energetic than dignified, blue and gold became our colors, Where there's a will there's a way, our motto, and daisies our ilower. When the first excitement of settling down and of teaching the Freshmen proper respect for the dignity of the mighty Sophs had died down, a gigantic war broke out around us. Strangely enough, it was the Junior class that started the trouble. One sad day some of its outstanding members erected a purple and gold banner on the flag-pole. Naturally the Seniors resented this. Up the pole they swarmed. In a trice bits of that gorgeous banner were fluttering in the breeze. With patience and perseverance, worthy of a better result, the offending party raised another flag so high on the pole that it couldn't be reached. At last they were triumphant! However, in their joy they made the mistake of overlooking the Sophomores. The very next day one of our members came to school with a gun. At the first shot the banner came down! Realizing what an ingenious crowd they had to deal with, the Juniors gave up the fight, wisely ac- cepting the defeat. During this second 'year the class made the rest of the school sit up and take notice. With representatives on the football team and basketball teams, with a num- Sixteen
