M iddler History 'When I was told that I had been selected to write the history of the Micldler Class, it came to my mind that a great many greater minds than mine had spent years and volumes in tasks not nearly so important as that which I must confine to this page. The fall term began rather sadly by the death ol' our classmate, Harry Hargis, but we must learn, not through joys and pleasures alone, but also through grief and sorrow. . In athletics this has undoubtedly been the greatest Midcller Class that ever was in llT01'C01'SlJlll'g, for did not our men, Moore, Leavitt, Ames, Mc:Cnlloeh, Landis, von Taeky and NValling come nearer to winning the fall meet than any other Middler Class? What would the Football Team have amounted to without Otero, Ames, Townsend and Staley? On the Baseball Team we again see that the Middler Class is well represented by Birmingham, Hoch, I-lamaker, King, li. Patterson, l'errault and Staley. In numbers the Class of 1904 is the largest elass that ever entered Mereersburgg, being the first- elass to reach the eentury mark. This class is by far the most important in the sehool, which will easily be seen when you note the fact that whenever anything of importance is to be done, a member of the Middler Class is always ehosen to do it. Our Midcller year is now drawing to a close, but we have aeeomplished many things during the past three yearsg we began with less than twenty members and now have one hundred and thirteen. If this increase keeps up we will have over one hundred and fifty in our Senior year. ,lf our llliddler year in any way shows what our Senior year is to be, it is impossible to prophesy how great this most illustrious Class ol' 1904 will be. Thus we can only say in closing that the pos- sibilities of the Class of 1-90-1 are unbounded and beyond the comprehension of the human mind. H1sToR1AN. 37
