■ THE PIONEER OF SACRAMENTO JUNIOR COLLEGE Sophomore Will To the Freshmen: As the time draws near when we must bid farewell to the college, we, the Class of 1925, deem it necessary to make a will to the class who will take our place. At this time we will turn over our sacred rights and traditions to the Freshmen, who by their persistent efforts and studious endeavor, have attained the position of Sophomores at the Sacramento Junior College. 1. The Sophomore Cap: Worn only by those men, who, by their merits, have been admitted to the Sophomore class. May you wear it with a dignified air, and confine its sacred brim to the noble head of Sophomores only. 2. Rights and Traditions: In passing we give you the right to all privi¬ leges of a Sophomore, and to those traditions which you see fit to dedicate to your class. Consider it your sacred duty to take the lowly Frosh under your wing, and to instruct them in the traditions which every Sophomore class must lay down. Let them not adorn their bodies in the Sophomore Cords; let no form of headdress be seen upon their green skulls except the traditional hat, which hat shall not be worn in the building; consider it your sacred duty to keep the upper lip of all male Frosh free from foreign matter. As a Sophomore it is your duty to set a standard in class work far superior to that of under-classmen. Take your new place in life seriously; uphold the honor that the upper-classmen have established. Co-operate with your fellow classmates, and instill in the incoming Frosh the spirit of love and respect for their college. Strive to make S. J. C. stand out as foremost among the Junior Colleges in California. —CLASS OF 1925. 18

THE PIONEER OF SACRAMENTO JUNIOR COLLEGE Society The social activities of the school year just passed have proven to be the life of the college. The social calendar for the year 1922-1923 is: The Sophomores gave the Freshmen a warm reception on September 13. The reception was in the form of a dance and initiation and took place at the Washington School. On November 22, the Freshmen, wishing to establish themselves in the good favor of the Sophomores, gave their Frosh Glee. Christmas is one of the biggest events in a child’s life. The Freshmen, as yet but children, had to have a Christmas tree and a real Santa Claus. On December 15 they invited the entire college to share in the gifts and merrymaking. The Sophomores sent out invitations to their semi-formal dance, the date of which was December 16. This was the most exclusive affair of the year. On February 12, the boys gave a smoker and invited their fathers. Ways and means of promoting athletics in the Junior College was the theme of the evening. In order to carry out plans made during the smoker, the boys gave an Athletic Dance on February 16. This dance proved a success, both socially and financially. The college closed all day February 22, so the girls thought it a good time to give a hike. The hike led along the H Street road to the American River. Although it was early in the spring, the hikers had a nice day for the occasion. The Sophomores received the 1923 Frosh at a reception on February 28. This reception was the first social event to take place in our own recreation room. On March 16, the Faculty entertained the students with a dance and entertainment. This occasion proved valuable to both student and professor, because the students were able to meet their instructors in an unofficial way. The Annual College Picnic was held at Smith’s Mound on the Natomas road on March 29. This was the second annual picnic of the Sacramento Junior College. College Nite took place on April 26, at the Tuesday Club House. This was one of the most important events of the entire college year. The Dramatics Society put on two short one-act plays: “Standing Room Only” and “Sallie-For-Keeps.” The Boys’ Glee Club gave a skit entitled “School Days,” and the String Quartet rendered several delightful instrumental numbers. The Sophomores will close the college social year with a formal dance just before graduation. Commencement exercises will take place on June 1, but the exact date of the dance has not yet been given out. 20
