ol?---THE EPOCH,1927-ll---0 girl of a Wealthy old family and they are now living on Long Island. Pearl Miller got married and is living on a farm in Wisconsin. Ed. Simmons is a famous composer and violinist. At the time of my talk with Dorothy, he was on a concert tour over Europe. Harlan Long and Frederick Gordon went into partnership and own a large furniture store in Boston. This was a big surpriseg I could a lot more easily have imagined Frederick a haberdasher. Dorothy said she had just recently seen Inez Davies. She was unable to tell me why Inez and Tom were never married. Inez became known all over the United States through her dancing and impersonations on the Chautauqua platform. After we had talked about every member of the class of 1927, Dorothy made me tell about myself. I told her I had done nothing very remarkable. I have written a few short stories and essays and have made a few ad- dresses before Women's Federated Club meetings over the country. -Virginia Crowell, '27. H The Senior Class Fight On October 8, 1926, the people living near the school house were startled to hear a crowd of rufiians gather at the high school and imme- diately start fighting or scrapping among themselves. After watching them awhile, they discovered them to be the Seniors and Juniors quar- reling over colors. Earlier in the evening the Senior boys tied the Maroon and White on top of the May pole in the school yard. At seven, the boys and girls as well, gathered at the school house. The Juniors tried to take the colors down, but they were protected by the Seniors who were ready to pounce on any one venturing to climb the greased pole. Alene Adrianson, Ger- trude Crouch, and Lillian Smith arrived on the scene gaily bedecked in Maroon and White. These girls were immediately pounced upon by the Junior girls, and were almost exhausted when the remaining Senior girls came to the rescue. At eight o'clock, when Mr. Routh blew the whistle. the old Maroon and White was still resting easy at the top of the May pole. The Seniors then went to town and noisily made known their victory. The next day the Maroon and White was still in supremacy. The Senior girls made a large black wreath and placed it over the assembly door in due respect for the grief-stricken Juniors. 30: A LITTLE LAUGH A little laugh is like the sunshine, It freshens all the day, It tips the peaks of life with light And drives the clouds away. The souls grow glad that hear it, And feel its courage strongg A laugh is just like music For cheering folks along. -Virginia Ferguson.
