This year we started in as Sophomores, bringing twenty-one of our last year's classmates with us. After three months we lost one boy from our group. Then during the course of the next few months we lost three other members. Now we number only seventeen, but we hope that these will all be faithful and remain with us through storm and sunshine, at least until we have finished our Senior Year, then if we must pfrt, let us hope that The band of old friendship will ever be true. FUTURE PROSPECTS OF THE JUNIOR CLASS First as we turn this magic crystal we see B. Richoz slowly mopping the floor of a dingy dungeon, sweating in the hot July sun. 'Tis what she de- serves, say we, as around the crystal goes. Next we see three girls bedecked in jewels sitting on mighty thrones and dealing out punishment to those who need it. Their names are Beck, Beer, and McCray. Next we see Ben Yergler slowly walking the streets of Kankakee with a sack over his shoulder and muttering and he arose from the dead. We see Harold Kogler a little farther back talking of how he dis- covered Illinois while walking through Pitchin. It is a shame to see such nice young fellows in such a condition as this, not knowing where they are. Hamrick we see in Joliet with striped suit and big hammer with mighty blows chushing rocks to fragments. How queer he looks with his hair shaved off. He can see no reason for his being here as he only killed Rockefeller and Ford. We see the two Eberhart twins lodged in the big city where they sling a wicked boot filled with the choicest gin. They are scraping in the money like sand. We see Fry in Davy Jones's locker where all good sailors go after they have plundered their last ship. We see Edith Newell the former Sheba of the class in a state court getting a divorce from her forty second hubby, for the main and simple reason that her pet .soup hound caught a cold through her hubby's care- lessness. As the crystal rotates we see the figures of Alt and Aeschliman sitting happily in their homes with their husbands and children. We see Lateer B. Crum in the Tribune building writing snappy stories for that wonderful paper,-the future author of Moon Mullins, a good man gone nuts. The crystal stops and we walk away well satisfied with our futures. But, as we look again just before putting the crystal away, it has not stopp- ed for good. Then as it gathers speed again we see Paul Geiger, Pres. of Harvard musing over the success of his Basket-ball team. 1926 IPAGE 261

FRESHMEN Some people call us la plus grande classe de pignaufe, the Cunabulag otherwise we are known as freshies. But what do we care? Everybody does not have the privilege of being called green, Our castigators, the loquacious sophomores, elite juniors, and saga- cious seniors, must also remember that they were not always those ethereal beams of unconquerable pertinacity. Anyway somebody has to take the punishment and we are willing victims. Our predecessors ought to be unanimously proud of such a group of hearty cooperative young people who are out for knowledge and the good of their alma mater. The word green surely does not mean that we are not perspicacious but that we are striving toward an education which will fit us for complete and useful lives. Come on, classmates. Let's go! 1926 I I IPAGE 281
