Aside from these few struggles with their neighbors the relations of the class with the other classes of the college have been of the friendliest. In view of this inter-class harmony, the '12 class called the 311s not to a council of war but to a peace conference. This was held in Margaret Hall on the first of October and will go down in history as the Junior Trot. It was a great success in every sense of the Word and in the Words of an eminent authority it was the most orderly conference of classes ever held. The dances were not war dances and the music was not martial. Another peace conference is being planned for this spring and in the North Woods the ,11s and ,125 will smoke the peace pit' and bury the hatchet forever. The class has in other ways extended its influence. The Bomb Board is publishing a book which deals with Iowa State College in general and the '12 class in particular. This book will always serve as a proof of the ability of the class and a record of its achievements. The future can only be predicted, but the class has shown itself in every way qualified to take the place which it will hold among the nations when the older class is gone. VVith its members joined together by loyalty to Iowa State College and to the class of 1912 only bright pages can be added to the history of the Wendigoes.
