Elnniur Ollama And now you have turned another page of the book. At this point let us turn back a few of the pages that are not printed in bold faced type, but which can be found dispersed throughout this old book. Let us review the better than the best class and see into how many branches they have ventured and how many things they have done. As Ellis, I would say, There is nothing more enjoyable and inspiring than to look back on our past experiences, and to review our errors and successes. We started out in '24 with a class of 70,members, about one- half of the population of the school, to show the old Alma Mater what a real class was like. Many were the midnight rides of the Sophomores that year. We took the class day fight, were chief competors in the Track Meet, placed many men on the Football squad, filling the majority of the football positions with good men. We went over, 10073 for the new Gym- nasium subscriptions. Several debators were from our class. The Sophomore year we dwindled to about 60, only a few taking the path of the school Ma'ams. That year we again started the volcanic erup- tions as was testified by the upheavals of the innocent Freshman. Hiking is a wonderful exercise-ask Pan -it still being a popular Freshman activity. We lost the class fight, but won the Track Meet. There was another good football team-thanks to us. We were also represented on the Basket Ball squad. The class had members in the G. I. Club, the Stripettes, the Kappa Omicron Beta and Sigma Tau Delta. We initiated the Dean's new barn, breaking any one of the 57 varieties on it. The class this year contributed generously to the state's educational project, as well as to the better homes institution-so we started with only 22 members. Rush was the Football captain and Hayman was the Track captain. Outside of the regular activities this year we have devoted very little time to enjoyment. We all pushed the Islander, and you can see how it has gone over-thanks to the untiring efforts of Winifred Proudfit and Lawrence Ritchie. When there is a better and more active class, we will be reunited again with Prof. Rice, our sponsor. 29

Ed Rogers: Yah, and she opened one eye, gasped, and reached for her powder puff! FOOLISH IN BIBLE 22 Dr. Sutherland: When were you born, Mr. Clarks? Bill: On the second of April. Dr. Sutherland: Ah, late again! W. Anderson: Sylvia, don't you think Miss Hirsch talks too loudly in Criminology ? Sylvia M.: I didn't notice. Why? Willard: Well, that's the only class I don't get to sleep in. 'Twas the birthday of a little Fresh- man girl And needless to say, her head was in a whirl, For her Joe had asked her to go down town . To dinner, at the Yancey, the hotel of renown. Now another birthday party was brought to the Yancey that night, Which soon put Hannah Lois and Joe in a sorry plight. For you see these two had found a secluded nook In which they thought no one would look. But other eyes were watching these two As hands met, arms encircled, and who Do you suppose witnessed this 1over's --1-? You may guess some student, or the subject dismiss.
