We thought we were a pretty wise bunch of sophomores as we shoved ourselves along, some ZOOO more of hustling high school humanity that first morning in Sep- tember. After all, we, the first peacetime class since 1941, had been briefed on the vital statistics and facts of life at Tech the Saturday before. It didn't take long for us to get thoroughly confused, however, and, just to make mat- ters worse, our counselors seemed to be doing their best to separate us from our buddies. All were feeling about as low as a snake's hind leg, when along came Hello Day. That afternoon we discovered we could even say hi to a senior, and glowed with purple and gold pride when Technites dancing with us took us for upperclass- men. ln short, we became part of Technical. Games made up a large part of our afterschool life. Our first term of football showed us out in front fighting tthough afterwards we didn't do so noblyl. The most irritating moment in our sports history, however, was the day we missed the O.A.L. track crown by one half point, avenged, however, this year. Of course, there were courses We had to take, like geometry, chemistry, and U. S. history, but they had their lighter sides, too. Who could forget about pi, Miss Forsyth's lichen, or the trip to the Naturalization C?l Court? But whenever studies or grades got the best of us, We immediately racked out to Chris', the Bulldog, or Fentons' to drown our sorrows in a coke. Ever on the go, we joined clubs and boards and sooner or later got to a Dux Picnic. Some of us even rcbn for office. But our senior year, spangled with activ- ities, whizzed by and left us, in cap and gown, wistfully wishing we had it to live all over again. SINI Ks
