Freshman Class The Freshman class of 1926 is the largest in the history of the school. Before setting out upon its brilliant career the class elected Lloyd Richards, president, Irwin Doane, vice-president, Marion Graham, secre- tary-treasurerg and Prof. Knox, class sponsor. With this formidable array of leadership it has conquered all fields of college activity at all accessible to Freshmen. We were Well represented in football and produced such stars as Paul Morris, Merrill Youell, Frank Tracy, Irwin Doane, Paul Nitzel, Edward Rich, Andy Weiland, and Brick Ray. Eight Freshmen received football letters. In basketball one of our class, Paul Morris, acted as captain and Arnold Johanson, another Freshman, is captain-elect for next year. Four others, Vernal Norine, Mansel Heusner, Henry Kleinkauf, and Roy Root, made their letters in this branch of athletics. In Forensics the Freshmen were no loss successful and placed three men, Edward Caredis, Harold Eisele, and Lloyd Richards, on the debating squad. Chester Windolph represented the college in the state oratorical contest. Our superiority in both mental ands physical efficiency proved a despair to all hapless Sophs who endeavored to match themselves against us. At the beginning of the term we found it necessary to demonstrate our prowess in the form of a class scrap which we won with considerable case. The Sophs were then privileged to put up the treats as a forfeit and they gave us a most enjoyable Wiener roast. Although we delight in our achievements our only aim has been to be worthy of the commendation of our school.
