He must tell it- in such a way that he will not arouse the enmity of '16. Many states contributed to what we hope to make the most notable class in the history of the college, and on September 30, while the sophomores were gloat- ing to themselves about the easy bunch of HfI'OSl1H they had to handle, tfor we were comparatively small in numberj we held a meeting in the railroad tunnel and elected our class officers. Cheerfully the men bore the horrors illltl vicissitudes of that first week, the fun- nel game, the dreaded gym-pond, and the class scrap, and cheerfully t'?J the women stood the strain of Black Friday. Une of the first things we learned was to re- gard with reverence and to faithfully obey all college traditions, but when the sophomore-freshman football game was played, tradition slipped a cog somewhere and the most the sophomores could do was to hold us to a scoreless tie. The beach party was a great success in the history of our class. The eats tdogsl and the drinks teiderJ were fine, and the class will long remember the fine time they had. The exuberant spirits of the party were mightily dampened though when we reached our rooms, for the Paramount t'?J class of '16 had worked overtime on tl1en1 and scattered our belongings far and wide. The Paramount class also worked overtime on our curly locks because we failed to wear out little green caps as long: as they thought we should. To show them how we felt about this unealled for act of violence we gavea freshman-sophomoreopen house at Lois Hall which was one of the social successes of the year. We were well represented in football and basketball,and although only one man received a monogram in football, there were seven others who showed up well and hold great promise for next year. Our varsity center in basketball is a fresh- man and two more freshmen are on the squad. The Freshman class is Well repre- sented in the tllee Club and the dramatic society, and two of the class were in the final round of the discussion contest.. The year is fast coming to a close and we have long since learned to love Lake Forest and her traditions and in succeeding years we shall endeavor more and more to do things which will refiect honor and glory to her name. 18
