history of tJje Mentor Class Three long years ago, in the fall of the year, about sixty new faces might have been seen entering Textile ' s gates. Somewhat timidly but with an outward air of importance, each one approached the office and signed up for the year. Ha ing fulfilled the first duty without being harassed, it was with a little more courage that we started to look about the place where we were to spend most of our time for the next three years. The first thing that caught our attention was a notice on the Bulletin Board, Mass Meeting downstairs at 9.30 a.m., for all students. We were ushered to this meeting by a couple of boobs called by courtesy Sophomores .

Our second term started with the class banquet. The latter was a great success. The Sophs tried hard to capture our president, Fred Heney, but Fred was too clever for them.
