Back with a feehng of intimacy and rela- tionship; never again would we feel the lost sensation of the year before. Before us lay the all-engrossing task of showing our newly-arrived Fresh- men the way that they should go . We held a solemn conclave and our President laid down rules for their guidance, admonishing them to follow the wise paths of their elders. The fall sports were rather disastrous for us, but no one can deny that our Soccer team fought nobly. Our Hockey team carried us to victory over the Freshmen. But Sophomore Hop, our own party, came soon and everyone said they had never heard better music, met better dancers; all the things usually said when one has had a glorious time. At Mid-years we became very serious. But never again would we feel that awful sinking sensation of facing the unknown. We tore up cellars and froze in the snow looking futilely for the Junior Mascot. The Laurels of the Basketball championship were very becoming to us. We faced our coming entrance into the ranks of Upper-classmen with calm serenity. [26]

How long we had looked forward to it, but once achieved our high estate seemed quite a matter of course. We determined that our career should be attended with dignity and renown. First we welcomed our new sisters to our midst, smoothing the pit- falls from their way, and giving them the advice our experience warranted. We witnessed spirited battles on the well-worn Soccer field. Then reluctantly we turned to Mid-years, but weathered them with the assurance which comes of long-suffering. Our Basketball season opened shortly after, and we hoped to maintain our record of the year before. The championship was a tie between our class and 1924 ! We guarded our Mascot feverishly, on damp spring days, snatching it back from the jaws of the enemy. Weary patrol duty, and hours of watch- ing skulking Sophomores were rewarded by keeping Sparkle in the fold. We hung our Lantern above the entrance of New London Hall to help the struggling young idea up the hill of learning. The culmination of the year was Prom. It was glorious, leaving us memories — memories — need we say more? And then, seriously, we faced the fact that we were soon to be Seniors. |28|
