1' Sminr ltiainrg The Class of '16 was born Sept. 6, 1912. Its memberS, about Seventyiive ,in number, gathered in the U. P. S. from the four corners of the earth. They were one of the largest and greenest crowds that ever trod the halls of an insti- tution. The second week after the opening of school announcement was made' ln chapel for all classes to organize. The Freshmen met in the History 1'00m of old Wilkin Hall, and elected Frank Brewer, president, with Willimae Crawford as Secretary. As Crimson Rambler boosters they were 110i SUFOUS- In football they managed to take fourth place. In basket ball they won second Place- In track they managed 'to getthird place. The girls won second P19-Ce in basketball- At last they were sophomores. Now they were far advanced in their estima- tion over the preceding year. This year Virgil Haldeman was made the executive over the uncontrollable crowd. This year they thought more about grades ,and social life in -severalty. At least no social affairs were given, .3l'0h0l1gh Pic- nics and parties were considered many times in the class meetings. t The athletic work was more progressive than that of the P1'eVi011S Yeaf- In football, with Bob Schwab, captain, they escaped with third place. In basketball, under the leadership of Captain Smith, they received second place- In track with Barclay captain, they won fourth place. The class returned in September of 1914,with almost the same members as the previous year with a few additionals. Ohticers were elected at our first, meet- ing, with Wesley Ricks as President. Our first social function came the second month of school, when the class on two large hayracks, took ajaunt to the placid shores of the Chikaskia. Football season came and went. Again the Juniors outpointed their rivals, and won the inter-class football championship. - Again another victory was added, when the Junior lads by their speed and accuracy on the basketball court, won the championship. In the interclass meet the Junior tracksters were forced to content themselves with second place, being pitted against old and more exy cf-d rivals. The first thing the class did after it had started on the it year's work was to elect A. Ray Smith president of the class. The class soon realized that they were to put out the Boomer. After some discussion, and a few caucus meetings of- ficial consent was given from the ofhce for the Seniors to put out an annual., The staff was next elected, with George A. Parker as Editor in. Chief and A. Ray Smith, Business Manager. When the class football games were started it was soon found that the Seniors chance for first place was slim, as they had eight men wearing emblems. This weakened the class team, but with this hand.icap, the Seniors won second place in football. The boys won the championship in basketball, and had four men on the school team. The girls Won second place in basketball. In track they will un- doubtedly win firstfplace as the majority of track men are Seniors. On March 17th the Juniors entertained the Seniors with the Annual Junior- Senior Banquet. The class started in with 63 members and if physics doesn't cast them by the wayside, there will be sixty graduates in May, the largest class in the history of the school. i 42
