GUje lloire (Elaafl Miatury And thus we laid the foundation of the class of ,192(5. An army of frosh on that magnificent fall day of October 1.5, li)2i), met as strangers for the first time, 211 strong. We registered ourselves as students of this noble institution. We were soon put to work for the first two weeks by learned professors, and informed by wise and experienced seniors of our subjection to freshmen rules including the wearing of green caps. We wen also welcomed by a party given by the faculty. Despite these friendly considerations we were mindful that—in union there is strength—and so organized the class of ’2(5, with the following officers: Vice Pres., Thomas Yates; See. and Treas., Charles Freebern; Faculty Advisor, Mr. Wheeler. When the call for basketball was issued “we frosh” contributed Yates, French, and Howard to the varsity. We also organized a class team which showed a fighting spirit and was fairly successful. On Halloween evening came the annual frosh and upper classmen rush which took place on the village green. Although we green caps scored a bit under our superiors, it. was a thing of joy and beauty to be remembered. The big social event of our frosh year was the Frosh .Jubilee in the form of a dance. Kveryone had a fine time and it was a financial success. The fall of’21 found us with these officers: President, Harry 11. Knight; Vice Pres., Arnold MacMillan; Sec. and Treas., John Prcssey. Our class basket ball team although handicapped by a late start, had a fairly successful season. We were also represented on the Voice us well as other school activities. According to the general policy of the year our class held a dance on Dec. 1.3, 1921 and an Uncle Josh play which went over in fine style. Ami so we are brought again to the end of another year. At the start of the final lap on Oct. (5, 1925 in the completion of our third milestone we soon got together and elected our officers once more: President, Howard Gilman; Vice Pres., Margaret Sigsbcc; Secretary, Florence Cole; Treasurer, H. Chester Williamson; Faculty Advisor, Mr. Wheeler. Added to these were the members elected to the Student Council; Avry Dean, Howard Gilman, Albert Pahnnteer, Russel French, ('lenient Moore. Also a senior committee was chosen to arrange and conduct assembly programs. Again our classmates took an active part in the Voice, Orchestra, Clubs and Fraternities. Our class has been socially inclined which included a very successful Senior Dance on Jan. 23, 192(5. Also on April 1, was presented the Senior play, entitled, “Professor Pep.” 'i'he realization that our stay on the Hill is ended fills our minds with memories that will cheer us in years to come. We bid all a hearty farewell. 25 M. (1. 11. 2(5.
