Discontented with the narrow bounds of grammar school, which had confined their i, talents, they looked forward to coming to this new institution with great hope and rejoicing. After a year of hard struggling, they found their lives still so autocratically restricted that they decided to revolt. In the Revolutionary War they were very successful. The peace treaty ordered that in the second year this hand of students was to he called the Sopho- more Class. Having become well established, June ’22 made rapid strides to fill its places in the school's political and social life. Soon it was found necessary to punish the Freshmen for infringing on Soph rights. This punishment being effected, the school was then forced to recognize June ’22. As a result of this struggle, a strong spirit of class loyalty swept over the students. They continued to grow in intellect and power. It was an “era of good feeling.” Under this influence a barn dance was given to the Freshmen. As all great societies have their difficulties, so had ’22. In the latter part of the Junior year, there was friction in politics over a dance and a rally. A Civil War then followed in which certain students advocated individual rights. However, President Shearer proved a veritable mainstay in this crisis, and the tide was immediately turned in favor of class spirit. The Emancipation Proclamation which was issued during this period put an end to all disputes. June ’22 embarked on its final year of full development and activity. It was a Senior Class! They now took a decided interest in the school affairs and varicus social functions followed, notable among which was the dance to a Foreign Element—Boys. But for a fuller treatment of the history of this class the reader is referred to the next edition. Page Fourteen
