Made the Faculty wonder what was the matter. The big event of our Freshman year Was the Freshman Skip where. as you shall hear, We arranged with the help of our class advisers A plun which made the school think us misers. For when the people at the dance Got thirsty and did think perchance The punch bowl must be somewhere 'round, A bowl of ice-water was what they found! Being Sophies was a lot of fun- The year had only just htgrun When Mrs. Holcombe let us know That we a party soon would throw. We arranged to have it on Hallowe'en, When ull the spooks and ghosts are seen :-- Now. by that time we'd a reputation For belonging to the Scottish nation. fPa,qe But we furnished doughnuts and cider xralore, Till even ...... ...... 4 ?l could cat no moreg Fortunes were told by Gypsies wise: tShhh! One was Miss Houghton in disyzuis At eleven-thirty goodniyrhts were said And we scrambled home and hopped in bed tMiss Kurtz thinks keepinxr late hours to be The reason we cnn't do our ceometryl. Well, after the party. we tried to End A diversion from the daily grind, And how the Freshmen's eyes did pop When we announced the Sophomore Hop ! As History repeats itself, And as we wished to keen our wealth, VVe in our boldness did not falter From again nrovidinp: ice-cold water. So, in the years to come, when you do see Tlie return ot' prosperity, And when this dread Depression's o'er, You'll know we're being Scotch once more! 155 ell

Still rather green, we foolishly consented to give a program, and ice. ourselves, admit that it was quite good! The juniors did their bit by kindly initiating us and furnishing the refreshments, zrhirh were mlm by tlzenzsrlwfs. On the twenty-fourth of November, we again amused the school by giving a humorous skit about Pocahantus CPokey Huntusj in pantomime. This day, also, was the day of the Thanksgiving banquet. Apart from too much managing by the Business Manager, Virginia Stover, and a few promptings, the play was received favorably. The class officers who have worked hard for these activities during the year are:- Helen Bissell, fvrfri1lmzt,,' lworris lllidkiff, vin'-pr0sirI1vzt,' Betty Reed, serrrtary-frm- surfrf Clarence Van Dyke, historian. cSfg7Il'1I I THE FRESHMEN fPage 171 . ji..
