These Two Sophs Get Misty Eyed, School started on September 6 and what fun it was to watch new, green, freshmen trying to set- tleldown to college life. Since I was a sophomore and had had a year's previous experience in Juco, I was asked many questions: What subject is the easier? Is Mr. or Miss So-and-So a tough tea- cher? , Is it true when you don't have a class you don't have to stay in school? , and many other questions concerning their start in college 1 e. The first few weeks were very busy getting settled to studying, meeting new students, and getting acquainted with new teachers. Football season started off successfully and the only thing I regret is that we didn't beat Fort Scott. Peanuts Aitson, Danny Bottero, Joe ' X X Q if W-iiffie w X N i' W' 5 - is , ...J -1 - ,, u gl .2 , Manotwa, and Shorty Long will always be re- membered for their excellent playing. The college band was organized this year- and what swing they do give out ,-especially when Chub williams beats that drum. College socials prove a great deal of fun-and help us to forget our lessons. Dancing, bridge, Chinese checkers, shuffle board and other games are enjoyed by all. The life of a sophomore is not a hard one, but by the time you have become a second year college student you begin to realize that college is not all play, and some really hard work goes with it Many interesting subjects are offered for sophomores Psychology, taught by Miss Thelma Hall, is a very interesting subject. In this class you learn of inductive and deduc- tive thinking, such as,- It is raining outside , or It isn't raining outside . You look outside and it isn't raining so the only alternative left is that it is raining outside, so it is raining. Silly, isn't it? But, that is how it works. Then there is Public Speaking from Miss Pauline Sleeth. Poetry, oratory and speech in gen- eral are thoroughly studied. Other interesting subjects are also available for students. They tell me that anything from Mr. Ruff is not only Ruff but also is a lot of fun. Life in the Junior College is not that of life in a large University, but still many things hap- pen to make us laugh, such as Mr. Stark's pep talks in chapel. And so my sophomore life is about to end- - Graduation is drawing near and it will leave with it fond memoirs of A. C. J. C. -Bette Hamilton Awake! eaglet, your father has flown, your mother has left her nest. Awake, little eagle! Let your proud eye search the plains of the east, the crags of the west. Try your cruel beak on the jagged rocksg let the air feel your wings are not weak. No more will a stern eye guard as you soar and Wheel. Test the day's length. Power is your cunning, need your strength. Strike the stag running in terror. The wild, mountain stream will furnish a feast- no carrion beast, no bone picked clean! Akake! eaglet. The lessons are doneg your learning is just begun. Build your nest in clean, cold air. The scream of the hare, the moan of the fox will gladden you: kill when you must. kill and eat when the morning is upg but soar When the western sun leaves the low-country black, soar when the warm up-breath of your yet wild Wings back. Thunder is a gentle voice, lightning a lamp in the dark. . . never turn, never cringeg the mountain storm will merely wash you clean! Fly high, high when the raven-flock worries you. Skirt the forest fringe, refuse the swamp, sleep out the night, sweep boldly into the morning spark! The Staff Editor . . . . Verne Stacy Photography . .
