Answer all questions in each group. F RESI-IIVIAN GROUP 1. What was the first event of importance in 1918 school year? The initiation of the innocent Freshmen was the first event of the season. The Sophomores remembered what had happened to them the year before, so vented their spite on our boys. 2. What plan was begun early in this year soon to be forgotten as a thing of the past? The custom of studying was begun, but as it was not found convenient, it was soon abandoned as unpractical. 3. What social events took place, if any? Of course, Freshmen never can do much as a class, for they are seldom organized. We, therefore, had only one social gathering, that being a picnic at the lake. This was in June, and after that we welcomed with joy our long- looked-for summer vacation. SOPHOMORE GROUP 4. During the Sophomore year what unparalleled event occurred in the history of l-l. l-l. S.? Give exact date. On February 23, 1920, lVlr. R. Wasson made his first appearance in l-I. l-l. S. 5. What means of merited castigation was inaugurated in 1920? The Detention Room, the bane of our lives, was established in 1920. Altho we detested it heartily, we must admit that it was fair and thorough. 6. A precedent in literary publications was established by the Class of '20. Give name of publication, results and historic importance. The annual Year Book was first published in 1920. It was a big under- taking and a worthwhile one, everyone admitted. lts importance in history is lasting, for each year thereafter the class graduating, publishes its own book, which remains a monument to its memory. 7. What social event took place in june, 1920? By whom and for whom was it given? State place and results Cif anyl. The first Junior Prom was given by the Juniors for the Seniors. The dance was held at the lake. Since this prom each junior Class gives the graduating class a happy start, in the form of a dance, on its road to life's work. IZ
