CADUCEUS, CHICO Page Twenty-five late to see the fight, but I will state here that the Irish boulogne stood not a chance with Art, who put him to sleep in the third frame. After being released by the judge we went out to dine early, and I learned from Ruth of the only two of the old class I had not already seen or heard of, Grace Goins and Wesley Rumbolz, both great scientists. They had made a trip from this planet to Mars via electrical transforma- tion. They had been sent off in 1940, Ruth said, in order that the people of this world might know of the life on the other planet. They had not yet returned, but several otiicial messages had been received from them by wireless. I was still eating when the vision ended, breaking off my meal, and I awoke to find myself lying upon the hillside beneath a pine. Seniors, though you may object to following the life outlined in my vision, you can- not escape. Your fates are sealed and in no way may your future lives vary from the course they have been seen to follow. For I did see and recognize those I have named in this prophecy as friends and classmates. Therefore, be resigned, for as the Spirit of the Mountains has given them to me to see and to record, so shall your lives be twenty years hence. WESLEY W. MOORE. MY POME My teacher said to have prepared A poem for class today. I thought and thought but thought in vain - No inspiration came my way. At first I thought that I would write About my little cat, But when I found nothing to sayg I had to give up that. At last I thought that I would find A subject in yon forest tree, And then I soon discovered that The tree was much too high for me. 'Tis plain to me, and you all know it, That I could never make a poet. -E. G., '24.

CADUCEUS, CHICO Page Twenty-seven SOPI-IOMORE CLASS W HE class of '24 has shown itself to be the liveliest one of the year. As Freshmen we were an important factor in the school life. This year We have accomplished much and We hope to have still better results next year. Friday, the thirteenth of January, we had a lucky dance, which was a complete success both financially and socially. The Sopho- mores are Well represented in athletics. On the football team Elmer Allinger, Wallace Canfield and Dana Canfield have distin- guished themselves. The girls are now taking part in a real game, hockey, and the Sophomores are the best represented in this sport. The class is progressive in athletics, studies and social affairs, and has every reason to be proud of itself. The officers for the past year were: .1 ,.
