By this time ik l we were a unitg because of the democratic system at Whitmang because this l lit system was installed in Estabrookg because there was a solid nucleus, because lk there was the personality and friendship of Captain Armitage, because we lik needed solidarity for self-protection, because we were undisturbed by fra- img ternity rushingg and because we did have spirit as spirits go at Clark. li, We were rigorously hazed, we were. We revoltedng we were no longer ik N ' hazed. Unity and spirit triumphed. We won our official freedom at the i 'ix pond. We banqueted in peace and undisturbed tranquility, some time before lm ' the toastmaster of the class of '27 had eaten beans instead of turkey. ii lg, We were a part of Clark. Our men, went out for things in general, and is N N made good: Athletics, Cups , The Monthly , Orchestra, Glee Club, N lt, Scholarships and Collegiate Honors. lg if We returned in '25. ' 3 'ilk About the same. We remembered our hazing, our revolt, our promises, lk f , and were lenient. Some began to wonder: Is your spirit fled? Even: Is our gg, spirit fled? The affair at the pond put such unthoughtful suspicion to ever- XR iff lasting flight. The first class to do it they say in six years, and we did it 'iq E i well. Again we held feast, and our board was graced by the presence of one li lit Enos of the class of '29. Nothing happened, we knew there wouldn't. Their .1 banquet? They haven't had it, and 'tis past the Ides of March. Again we fi ill, see our members prominent in all activities, and are proud. And in our second year we see a better Clark. We are beginning to i J 'lt faintly discern something here besides a group of buildings, besides a round ,' of work, besides a daily routine. And so as we approach our Junior year, we f , it are hoping that it's not all from our change in viewpoint. We not only want S to see Clark better, we want to see a better Clark. X3 ill, We are half-wayg we look back and are satisfied, we look forward and lx t resolve. -A H xx ,l or l Q, 5,5 Q, , lb 1 .rx . XR li it lull it FN el . x it in If ' ' xiii . C i911

And the play called The yy I i Collegiansn has, so far as we are concerned, made a gallant start towards a it lug final act of splendor. It is true that the first act was not strong in mob scenes, IN Ii but in situations of calm, lucid action it was indeed powerful. There was the IJ li usual number of lost cues but this was due to our lack of experience. There ye i are three acts yet to come. ii, l, Our chief achievement lies in our paving the way for those better things gui . . , , . I' F X which will follow. We have done away with banquets-those trite, rotarian- lg i, like, and boring affairs-and have seen clearly and appreciated well the good wi ' sl . . . . ' x ' and the evils in the system under which we first struggled. We are truly in a ity' -'-it position to improve on our immediate superiors at the opening of Act II. 'yy' Y I Our pride in our school has been manifest also. In every line of endeavor iq FN have we distinguished ourselves through the efforts of some members of our xv' is class. The class of 1929 has been represented in the Glee Club, Debating, li fx Track, Dramatics, Baseball, Tennis, Varsity Basketball, Monthly Soccer- , ll 'Xxx and has especially fostered a Fresh basketball team which has been the lib A pride of the school. We have given the school two cheer-leaders and have ii, followed them faithfully on every occasion. 'KX We point with pride to the Junior-Freshman Prom, in which we had no I., 'Q little share and which was undoubtedly the best affair of its kind ever if, 5 arranged and carried through by these two classes in the history of Clark. IQ, And the rope-pull? We lost like gentlemen, and in that kind of defeat there ik Y is always a measure of victory. ij X4 ix. l 'K ry is gp lb Il, lla ty' ly? ,V jj IJ ' c x lg, I , ', Aix Ft A .T N, Ig Y, 4 it Iii r, YI yi ,X .R l' , ,- Aff ,- 1 t,'f ',' ,Y ,Y ,.- 1 7-vy,- :V ,,- ,,- .,,- ,,- ,Y ,- ,WWA I 93 I
