orate banquet given at the ho111e of Mrs. Vance, the royal reception tendered by President and Mrs. Scott. and tl1e decisive victory gained over the Juniors in a gallle of baseball. It was during tl1is ganie that Wilson and Good became famous. The fall of 1902 found this class occupying the seats back of the Seniors. This tinie there was but six boys and six girls: several dropped out and three joined the Senior elass. But what they lacked in quantity they niade up in quality, and under tl1e leadership of Lorin Ulrich as president, the work which was done by this class during its Junior year will go down into history as inarvelous. Joining hands with tl1e Freshinan class. tl1ey administered a severe defeat to the other classes in a gaine ot football. They were royally entertained by tl1e Freshnian elass at tl1e Hotel Holmes, which served to strengthen tl1e bonds of union between these two classes. The SIBYL of 1903 is the pro- duct of this elass and we refer the readers to this noted hook for further information of that year's work. The Senior year of this class began when tl1e class of 15102 received their diplomas, and to show tl1at they were Seniors, they marched i11to tl1e chapel in a body wearing their caps a11d gowns 1llllCl1 to the chagrin ot' the class ot '02, but to the delight of all other classes. The ranks ot' the class increased to seventeen during tl1e Senior year, with U. B. Brubaker as president. They appeared frequently during the fall ter111 in their caps and gowns and in 1nany ways added dignity and influence to the class. The year was inarked with a number of social functions. inost notable of which was a reception given to the Sophomore class in the Association building. As to the future of this class we can truthfully say no other has a brighter outlook. It has within its ranks those of unusual ability and will be represented in ditferent professions. Watch tl1e class of 1904 as its lll9ll1iJE'I'S enter the are11a of life. You will hear from tl1e111 later. HIS'FORl.AN.' 25 xf'
