I Senior Class History We, the members of the present Senior Class, enrolled as Freshmen in the Fall of 1914. Then our chances of getting a diploma. from Gordon seemed vague and a long Way off. After overcoming many difiieulties and receiving the hard knocks which are a part of every Freshmanys life, We came to be Soph'omores. The word Sophomore seemed large to us at that time and ive oarried our heads high as if We rivaled even the Seniors in knowledge. Our class had the distinction of being the largest that year. and we contributed more boys to the athletic teams than any other elass. After enjoying our well earned vaoat-ion we came back in September of 1916 and found ourselves to be Juniors with only one more year before We would be called Seniors. This proved to be our hardest year and we found before the term wasicompleted that we had to do some real hard work before that much coveted diploma could be called our own. We are proud to say that several members of our Junior Class are now serving their Colors in Europe. And We have at last reached our Senior year, the elass which was so far off when We were Freshmen. We have enjoyed our stay at Gordon and we regret to part with the friends made while here. Many of us Will probably be fighting for our Country soon, but no matter where we are or under what circumstances we are, We .shall always look back with pleasure and satisfaction upon the days spent at Gordon. , ' Hisronmn.
