C74 550115 0451150113 of His 75 Unit I: PRIMITIVE MAN. Chapter IeThe hundred or more Freshmen who entered Mercy during that eventful year of 1938 were indeed a replica of primitive man in his wildest state. They did everything Freshmen are expected to do: went to the wrong classes, lost their way, couldn't find the library, and failed to recognize their upper-classmen when they met in the halls. Chapter II-They were at once divided into three groups, two classes located on the second floor, and the other in Room 16. The Freshmen took part in every activity, such as: stamp drives tFreshmen C won the coveted pennanti, candy sales, school assemblies, essay contests, etc. Chapter III-During the course of the year the Freshmen classes partici- pated in the operetta, The Toymaker. and the Latin play, Patricia. The year was brought to a Close with an outdoor party given for the Senior Class of '58. Unit 11: THE DAWN or CIVILIZATION. Chapter I-It was during this time, that primitive man began to see the light. The former Freshmen, now Sophomores, were being civilized! The dominant feeling was one of pride and superiority, and they could look with sad little smiles at the new Freshmen. Chapter IIiHistory repeated itself as usual, and they were again divided into three separate classes. As Sophomores, they were faced with their first important decision, whether to study Biology or Modern History. But the Choice was eventually made, and the rest of the year passed smoothly, ending with a tea dance given by the Sophomores for the Graduates Page 32
