44 THE MEDILLITE Class History, June, 1929 On that eventful day of September, 1925, the sun was shining brighter than usual, for once Chicago was free of smoke tif that were possiblej, the 14-16 street car came on time, the trains restrained their noise and everyone was ready to welcome the guests. Guests did I say? Well, I'll say it again, for into the city of Medill, in quest of Knowledge, we came-ninety strong. ' How we shivered when we first came to Room 307! Soon Mr. Hall, Mr. Thoren, and our dean, Miss M. Joice Adams, set our minds at rest, and everything was arranged for our comfort. In vain we looked for the elevator which the upper classmen were telling us about, in vain we looked for some sophomore, junior or senior whom we could trust. Then, like the green fi-eshies that we were, we labored over our homework, burning the midnight oil. Why do two negatives make a positive? Why is not 2 x equal to x 2? Please tell me how to conjugate 'amo'. Such were the questions we asked of everyone. Finally February came. Ah, glorious world, how good to be alive! We were advanced freshmen! Slowly we were losing the green color and taking- on orange. Did you hear the news? Why those Sophomores are clever! I mean they ACtually are , of course THEY referred to US. Besides trying to prove that two triangles are similar when one is the size of J eff and the other the size of Mutt and learning the divisions and subdivisions of the pteridophytes, we were taking part in school activ- ities. The Students' Council was organized and its doom was forseen unless WE helped it out. The girls joined the Sophomore Girls' Clubg and helping the Milk Fund and tag day were familiar to us. Like the seeds that we were studying about we had taken root and were growing. All things come to an end, and so did our sufTermore days. Those green youths and maidens of two years ago were big-shots. Athletics and social activities, Honor Roll and ditching were our mid- dle names. But suddenly all is quiet as Medill mourns the loss of her beloved principal, Avon S. Hall. Mr. David M. Davidson soon came to govern over us and then we, the Juniors, were in the midst of the throng. Yea, Seniors! Yea Seniors! Yea Seniors! How they all looked up to us! Again we received anew principal, Mr. Davidson having been transferred to another school, and in his stead came Mr. Thomas C. Johnson who guided us through our Senior year. H2SO4 and word signs were forgotteng especially so in the last semester. After class elections the air- was electrified with pins, rings, photographs, ban- quet, picnic, and prom. After breathless anticipation and eager Wait- ing it arrived at last--Commencement Night. Oh, the pride of it- the sturdy, well-carriage of our bodies as we were wearin'g our caps and gowns and receiving our coveted diplomas-having expected them for the last four years. We had finally reached our goal in High School. And now good-bye, Medill. Through the years to come we will miss you, dear school of our youth. Medill, adieu, adieu, adieu. ANNIE BRODSKY.
