Glass 3 isfnxg OT the' most brilliant class that ever left our Alma Mater's classic halls do we boast ourselves, but it is as one scarcely surpassed in her social realm that we take our place. S Even from the beginning we felt that owing to our unique position as the semi-centennial class, something unusual was expected of us. We only waited for an opportunity to show that we were equal to the occasion. During our Freshman year this opportunity did not present itself. ln fact in that year we gave not the slightest hint as to our future greatness. lt was not until the next year in the hard fought flag battle between the Freshmen and Sophomores that we distinguished ourselves. From this contest the valiant Sophomores came out victorious, though bearing many scars of battleg while some of our baby sisters, the Freshmen, fainted away with sheer wrath and fear, still clutching in their tiny hands spoils of the fray, namely, Sophomore hair. In this year also one of our number distinguished herself by taking scholarship medal. The junior year was the gayest of our college life. There was a never-ending round of fun and frolic before we took upon ourselves the dignity of cap and gown. Since then our time has been spent in faithful study and in an effort to set a good example for all suc- ceeding Senior classes. What the Centennial class will be we cannot foretellg but this we know that it cannot hold hearts richer in loyalty and love to dear old Irving than the class of '06. - H1sToR1AN.
