JOHN ELLIS DALEY President l Freshmen Class Begirfs Forward March ELL, it looks as tlfiough the Freshman Class must real- ly become a Sophomore Class and take on more responsibilities. However, before we do this, we want to dwell for a few minutes on a glorious past year, and then we can truly straighten our shoulders and look forward happily to another grand year at Keystone. September 13, the first day of freshman week, ushered us into Keystone. How did we feel? Well, rather scared, or should I say awed, and awfully green? The Sophomores eased our situation somewhat by giving us a respite of two days before starting their heckling, but this didn't last long and before we realized it, we were being a constant source of amusement to our dornineering upperclassmen. Since we, as the future Class of 1939, needed some sort of organization, we assumed our official duties by electing of- ficers. lack Daley was elected Presidentg lack Tilley, Vice- Presidentp Ieanne Richards, Secretaryg and McDonald Heeb- ner, Treasurer. As soon as we overcame our awe of the Sophomores, we settled down to the daily routine of school life. However, rea- lizing our majority in members and wishing to show our in- dependence We became overly excited, took off our dinks, and THE NOKOMIAN OF

marched in a body down Sophomore Lane. Our march was halted by a group of Sophornores who were determined to stop this revolt. Not Wishing to cause any serious troublevand understanding the Sophornores' position, we decided to dis- perse and to resume our original status. As a result of our undue excitement we were forced to write an apology to the Sophomore Class and were penalized by the extension of Freshman Rules for one month. Although we were defeated in this enterprise, We soon won a victory over the Sophomores in the interclass football game. Our triumph caused further rejoicing because it meant that Freshman Rules would be suspended for two weeks. More- over, the vanquished had to give a dance for the victors. In appreciation of one grand year at Keystone, the Class of 1939 Will bestow upon the College a gift. This gift has not been decided upon as yet, but we have been considering an electric scoreboard for the gymnasium or some useful contri- bution to the new science building. And now, since we can not dwell forever upon past glories, let us look toward an even more glorious future. May we be worthy of the place left to us by the Class of 1938 and may we perform our duties as well as they performed theirs! NINETEEN THIRTY-EIGHT
