Academy Review Sl THE FRESHMAN CLASS The Freshman Class V331 of ninety students held their first meeting Septem- ber 28, 1929. Officers were elected as follows: President, June Roderick: Vice-President, Bernice Roderickg Secretary, Dor- othy VVebberg Treasurer, Eleanor Green. Eleanor Green left school on account of sickness and Violet Puises was elected in her place. Friday, January 24th, the Freshman Class put on an assembly which consisted mostly of music and reading. A social was planned to be put on by the class, but other activities interfered .and the idea was dropped. At a meeting on january 20th, the class decided to have a class picture takeng later it was carried out. Of the whole class twenty-two enrolled in the college course, thirty-one in the commercial course and thirty-seven in the English course. THE FRESHMAN RECEPTION The Student Council gave the Freshmen of '33 one of the most brilliant and peppiest receptions in the history of Foxcroft Academy. Some of the Freshmen did not want to come, but we told them it would be the best for them, so they came. Upon arriving, they found the hall gaily decorated. With the help of the girls of the upper classes the dumb Freshmen got interested and played all the games with a zest never known before. During the intermission the Freshmen guzzled ice cream and wafers. The 'fbrouglit up in the barnn manners of the Freshmen shocked the rest of the classes. but we thought probably they didn't know any better. After a brief session of games the reception closed and each little Freshman hurried home to get plenty of sleep for the next day. A BLUE IRIS Two men walked beside a brook Where an iris flower grew: One looked up and caught his breath At its deep unearthly blue, He saw a beauty, pure, divine, Far above man's gross look. The other glanced, and what he saw VVas a weed beside a brook. O. G., '31.
