Class History FRESHMAN YEAR We had been warned time and time again of the many tricks of upper- classmen. Although we walked into Crosby enthusiastically, we walked in on guard, awaiting an upper classmen to jump out at us from behind the formidable looking chained doors. We feared that we would not know where the assembly hall was and some villain of an upper classman would lead us astray. The next day we received a little more of what we expected. They awaited us at the foot of the stairs looking us over carefully and smiling in- dulgently at the poor freshmenf' The best any freshman could do was try to look as if he didn't mind in the least. We set out to make ourselves famous actors when we joined the Fresh- man Dramatic Club, Props and Paintsf, That year the club presented a ma- rionette show and a comedy play. We began to realize that Crosby was a regular little community when we first received the Argus. Why, that year, even the freshmen had their own column entitled Frosh Briefs. We were pleased when, at the first athletic assembly, we were told that we cheered louder and better than any other class. We put our cheering to good use at the annual Turkey Day Game when Crosby came out with a score- less tie. The swimming squad had a very good year, winning nine out of eleven meets. The baseball team was fortunate in having Pinky Woods that year. They defeated Wilby twice and Woods pitched a no-hit, no-run game. The Argus also had a good year since it won third place in the Columbia Scholastic Convention, which showed its prominence as a National School paper. The Honor Society, a newly organized group, presented College Day. This helped many to decide in which school to continue their education. After we no longer had the worry of final exams, we had time to realize happily that we had gained our place in the upper realm of Crosby.
