B L UE and GOLD The Class of '27 has made its importance felt on all sides. Socially, the Sophomores starred in a Freshman reception given in October. Both new teachers and new pupils were initiated, some unusual and amusing stunts figuring in the ordeal. As a climax, they fed the Freshmen with milk and animal crackers. Then, too, the class went to Surf for a picnic-supper, lNIay ninth. After an unsuccessful attempt to forget the chaperon by leaving her on the tennis court, the class motored to the beach. There, several of the more daring of the girls boarded a rowboat and succeeded in rowing upon and sticking fast to the onlv sand bar that the river held. After an hour of hysterics and swaying about, the stranded ones were eventually rescued. A supper followed. and after that both Sopbs and teachers skipped about in an enthusiastic game of Dare-Base. In the field of drama, the class presented f'The Dyspeptic Ogre before the A. S. B. They achieved most notable success in athletics by taking the hlarathon Cup offered by the Lompoc Record and Review, while they captured second place in the inter-class track meet, and third place in basket ball.
