Freshman Class History All aboard! All aboard! A group of one hundred ten “bright green Freshmen”, getting tickets the year before, entered the fourth-class coach of the “Morris Harvey Special” in search of knowledge of the bigger and better things of life, September 1 1, 1934. Our passenger list was the biggest in history to board the Morris Harvey Special. An eager, jolly and carefree group of Freshmen on board the Special were preparing for the four-year journey of continuous riding and studying in dif- ferent places along the road. By the end of the first several weeks’ travel we began to feel somewhat used to the way the “engineer,” President Riggleman. was driving the train over the rails of education; to the “fireman,” Dean Walton; officers of the Special,” the student council; the train crew,” the faculty; and to the second, third, and fourth class “mail cars,” Seniors, Juniors, and Sophomores, who gave orders while traveling. The jolly Freshmen made their first stop at dear oY M. H. C. auditorium and elected Dean Glenn as the “conductor.” We decided to be a history- making class for M. H. C. With this aim in view we elected Bernie Hope president to lead us on our journey, and Roy Fulk vice president to take his place if the president should happen to want to stop in Maytown. Rachel Snyder, our secretary, who once was secretary to “Lord Van Buren Vargo,” was aided by Ruth Jarvis, treasurer, who carried our money. Hon. Franklin Leggett, the world’s greatest newspaper editor, was elected publicity director to publish all news aboard the Freshman Special. Leggett, an honor member of our group, belongs to the Z. K. fraternity. Clara Thompson and Paul Shumaker were to join the “officers of the Special” as Freshmen class representatives. Our journey was brightened the night we stopped at the Wallace Farm, October 15, for the first Freshman weiner roast. We seemed green enough, for the girls were carrying big paddles. Bright green ribbons were tied around their ankles. On the boys’ heads were parked bright yellow and red caps, making them look as ridiculous as court jesters in the time of King Alfred. What fun the upper classmen have at initiation! That night the Freshmen seemed to be the peppiest group aboard the Special. One of our members, Dayton Detamore, stopped off at White Sulphur Springs. He was the only Freshman representing the Special tennis team at the state intercollegiate contest. “My cow,” why shouldn’t I talk about him? He’s a hero. Of course, I am talking about tennis! We made several stops to see the famous Golden Eagles bring victory to our dear oY Alma Mater, in football. We witnessed one of the greatest games of the season, at Fairfield Stadium, with Marshall College. We were very proud of Baldwin, Clay, Fulk, Lookabill, Miller, Morris, and Vaught, foot- ball heroes who received letters aboard the Special. □ 1935 - SEVENTEEN
