211,10 nhe SAB RE ’27 Ill Class History O you want me to tell you the history of the Sophomore Class. Well, at first — But gosh! There’s not much to it. As you already know we ' ve only heen together two years — anyway, as long as you wish it. I’ll try my best to relate to you the history of the Class of ’29. When the first roll was read, it had the names of Andrews, Deal, Denanlt, Ewell, Ford, (i., Horner, Kolipinski, IMcGhee, Moffet, i Ioody, Phipps, Rodgers, Walker, Wood. Tlu ' oificers were: Moody, President; Walker, Vice-Presi- dent; Kolipinski, Secretary; and liodgers, Treasurer. The opening of Football season saw one of us — Alvin iVIoody — playing for the Varsity. He received his letter. In Basket hall, no Freshmen played on the Regulars, hut several made the squad. After (diristmas we were joined hy Warren and Priester. dnst as the cool, heautifnl Spring days began. Track started and Horner succeeded in getting a berth. During this time the dances were at their height. Many of the Freslnnen received bids. The clnhs and literary societies were also going good, and on the ])rogranis of the latter. Freshmen’s iianies appeared often. No member of our class made the Baseball team, and thus ended the first year, one which the Cdass of ’29 hel})ed to make a huge success. The first thoughts that crossed our minds when we again set foot on the beloved old (’ampus were: I’m a So])homore — Where are those Freshmen? That was half the fnn of onr second year — to give orders to the Freshies. However, as I gness you already know that. I’ll continue with the ac- complishments of the Class. When the roll was called for the Sophomore Class,, we found we had been joined by twenty new hoys: Arwood, Duncan, J., Echols, Elder, Elliott, Em- mons, Graham, W., Lowther, Velson, Smith, Sohral, Stanley, W., Talmage, ' bhrift, Vick, (r.. Ware, Watkins, Whipple, and Williams. Kenneth Graves enrolled with ns after the Christmas Vacation. The beginning of Track practice saw many of ns out, hut, as the team has not yet been picked, the fact that I’ve reached to the present day will end my story. Bnt before we go — here’s wishing Inck to the Cdass of ’29 ! A. L. Kolipinski Class Historian.
