ass ilst iry 906. .179 .25 The history of the Class of 'o6 so far, has been a brilliant and varied one. The Sophomore Class is surely the cynosure of envious eyes It diffuses from its chapel pew an air of indefinable radiance and supremacy both intellectual and physical. The Class could not be other than distinguished for every member is a genius in himself. It is true the junior Class excels us in bliss, but Ignorance is bliss. The alacrity and perseverance which so characterizes the Sophomore Class was displayed at the so-called Freshman party which can hardly be dignified by that title After dining hurriedly on a few oranges and buns, they were served with UI scream by the Sophomores on thzir way home. Their delicate frames being chilled by the atmospheric conditions of the Literary Hall, not having a good time in general, and fearing the attack of the invincible Sophomores, they decided to adjourn early. Screaming for help from the alreadv frightened Juniors, they were easily captured, bound and dragged back to the college where they were lowered into the old tank, from which could be heard groaning and gnashing of teeth a-la-Messick.

Meanwhile the juniors, who had assembled for the supposed purpose of aiding the young and inexperienced Freshmen, became alarmed at the quick work and military ability of the Sophomores.

Thus the Sophomores celebrated St. Patrick's Day with another glorious victory. By far the most successful and daring social event of the sdhool year was the Sophomore banquet held April zgrd, at Hotel McKinley, Canton. This energetic class together with Prof. and Mrs. Lee boarded the tive o'clock car to Canton, easily escaping the observation of the green-eyed Freshmen who learned too late of our triumphant departure After reaching the McKinley, all repaired to the dining room where a bounti- ful supper was served. The only similarity between this banquet and the Fresh- man was the calf brains on toast. It is unnecessary to dwell on the merits of the repast as the McKinley is famous for such. The evening was passed in t e hotel parlors and on the balcony, with the pleasant diversion of music and college songs interspersed with evening walks in the moonlight, It will remain a never-to-be forgotten occasion, rendered so by the vivacity of all present and the keen enjoy- ment spiced with messages of an ever increasing number of students who were
