udjr Annual iHtli-Umter Prntr of Engineering VII at Haslgngtnn Park Engineering VII. the class that has the reputation of always starting something new, requested its chief weather forcaster Pung Reynolds to sug- gest a suitable Sunday for the picnic at Washington park. Pung, by his secret methods of atmospheric control caused January 11, to be an ideal day. The class, six strong, assembled at the bachelor apartments of Schroeder and Sabatke. Havlick, a car company employee, financed the fares at the company’s expense. At the park we encountered our miniature member Ervin Riebe, making a party of seven. Reynolds and Sabatke had a thrilling ride on the toboggan slide. Fritchell tried to imitate and took a scat behind one of the fair sex. His ride was thrilling because of the many slaps encountered. Schroedcr suggested that we follow him to the home of our ancestors. The journey ended in front of a monkey cage. After watching the monkeys for a while, we decided to imitate some of their jokes and tricks. Riebe scrambled into a vacant cage, pursued by Havlick. Suddenly the screaming of a baby attracted us. On investigation we found that the baby’s carriage was used by Smith, who used Schroeder as a substitute for the baby. About this time Sabatke. by his farmer instinct, discovered an ancient horse hitched to a sled. The assistance of Schroeder and Smith was necessary to make the horse move. The fair sex about the park were getting pretty attractive to the party. Smith and Schroeder made a bold attempt to get pictures of a pair and were given a cold reception. We stopped on a hill and Havlick tried his luck on Skis. Schroeder demonstrated his ability in sliding on Skis. Reynolds delighted in watching the young ladies taking tumbles while coasting. We left the ski slide, and were determined to get acquainted with some of the “dames” around the skating rink. Fritchcl discovered two that he termed most compelling to look at. Before he could get familiar, Smith and Schroeder, carried olT the flowers of victory. Sabatke discovered two of his acquaintances, and Started off to Highland boulevard, a region very familiar to him. The rest of the party disbanded by a unanimous vote, having in their possession three reels of pictures of events of the day. E. G. S.
