Class History FRESHMAN YEAR I rubbed my eyes, I stretched my arms and legs, “Ha,” said I, “And what day is this, pray?” The poor long suffering little brother replied, “May first.” “What year?” I asked. And he responded laconically, “1920.” So four long- years have rolled by since I first entered the Law¬ rence High School. How everybody has changed Yet as I look over the class, I realize that there are very few faces entirely unknown to me. But whefe are all the nice, shy, little girls with the beautiful curls whom I met on that first day in school? And where— Oh tell me where— are the little, freckeled, bashful, blushing boys in short trousers? Don’t you remember that first day of school a beautiful, sunny, balmy day in September, 1916? Meekly, and timidly, to heart beat, but not to drum beat, (on tiptoes, indeed) we looked around and wondered, “Whither now ?” We did the obvious thing, that is, we followed the noble Seniors. Wherever they went, there also we went. After climbing up flight after flight of stairs, we entered the Assembly Hall. There we met the “tympan” (alius the piano) the statuary, and— Mr. Horne. There also, we met with our first rebuff— many of us. Those taking the Col¬ lege or Normal courses were sent home and told to return in the afternoon. Very early that after noon we assembled in the hall and were told to sit down, which we did. This illustrates the ab¬ ject obedience of the Class of 1920 in the long, long ago. Then the girls immediately set them¬ selves to wondering who on earth those boys were, standing up against the wall. May be it wasn’t very flattering, but then, how did we know that they were to be our teachers? And how did we know that “that Senior with the big voice” who called out our names in an awe inspiring voice, was none other than our own beloved teacher, John Hogan? After a week or so, we settled down to hard work for the rest of the year. Every night we brought home all our books, for the public must know that we are now High School students. Then too, Freshmen, are just exactly what they should be, studious, faithful, obedient; in other words, we were so good that we began to observe little wings sprouting out from our shoulders. miiimiiii!.iiimimi..innnununiiinnnunnnnin...iiliiiiiiinm...I...inn...I...a.........uni...inniininnunnnii.unnnnnnniinn.innininiiin.il...uninnnnnnnnnnnnninnunn.unnnnnnnnnuninnnnnnnn...mi.... 11 mm................nun...mm.....mm................nnnuununn.........
