SIMMONS Vicefllresident-H. B. FREW Historian-JBANNB DEWAR CLASS HISTORY T was in that memorable year of 1924 that we took up our new work as stu' dents of osteopathy. We realized that we were green, but took the scorn of the upperclassmen with the idea that we ourselves might some day pass beyond the Freshman class. p The way looked 'dark and mysterious before us as we gazed into the future, and at that time the four years of preparation seemed as the greater part of a lifeftime. When we returned the following September, it was to enter the new school of The American School of Osteopathy and Andrew T. Still College of Osteopathy and Surgery Combined. Again the pathway seemed obscure, but with the aid of our worthy instructors, we were soon completing another se' mester, and had climbed over that first great hill of the pathway to rejoice over the fact that we were Sophomores. p Our Sophomore year was rather uneventful, except for a wedding or two, and we had the privilege of initiating the Freshmen-rather conservatively. It was about this time that the class of January '28 gave a dance in the gymnasf ium, preceded by a basketball game with the Freshman class. A little farther up the hill we find the mound which marks their fate. There lies the remains of the Fresliman Class 7 Of the 'noble K. O. C. They did their best, may they he blessed In the 'realms beyond the sea. With great difficulties we waded through chemistry, dissection, and other mystical obstructions, to End ourselves at the top of another hill, ready to begin our journey through the Junior year. We regret the loss of a few of our class' mates, but it is with our best wishes that they may continue their work. In January 1926, it was an eager group of Juniors who took up their burf dens to start up the third steep hill. We now find that we are halfway to the top still endeavoring to do our best. During our life in K. O. C. we have been well represented in athletics, band, social life, and various other activities. The Junior class hopes for a delightful Senior year, and a prosperous future. We feel that we will win through diligence and perseverance. . r . ' ' V11 ln ,Q is Q, o la l r Q r Q fx, 7 . - f- f. o1fr5,.,,, l,f-csrj-r ' ' w' ' 3- V l s -e 1927 Cf! Page 84 arf
