Looking Iyacic over our Freshman days, we recall time stern and over-awsing Senior Committee, who informed us that we were now 'slowly Freshmen-'mere crawling worms in the eyes of the sophisticated uppercIassmen.

EDXVARD D. KELLY Treasllref ALLAN IVI. ZIEGLER Secretary for more than 5 terms, who are not included in either the Junior or Senior divisions. This group consists mainly of Teacher Training, Business Administration, and Journalism students who are pursuing four year courses. Qur enrollment includes students from ten states: New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Georgia, Maine, Mhflassachusetts, Vermont, West Vir- ginia, and North Carolina. Due to the newness of the class, we have accomplished little this year as a group. However, certain individuals have put the Sophomores down in the history of the college hy aioly filling offices and achieving success iooth in scholarship and extra-curricular activities. Among the outstanding personalities in the group are Claire Timhreil, star of comedy in the Dramatic Guild, and Theodora Grems, who portrayed most of the leading roles since her matricuiation. In the athletic field David Rowan, Edward Gishurne, and Edward Kelly, all of Philadelphia, won iaureis and new records for the swimming team. Rowan, who holds many swimming titles, is considered one of the hest natators in the East. Numerous other students have achieved success in many branches of college activities, including such organizations as the Rider News, college paper: the Student Council, of which hoth Richard Smith and Claire Timhreii have heen president, the athletic teams: the debating ciuhg and the glee ciuh and orchestra. As the organizers of the first Sophomore Class at Rider, we hope and helieve that those students who follow will capahiy carry onf, VVe feel that our own attempt to establish traditions for future sophomores has not heen in vain. 93
