September found us Juniors. “How much more elder were we than our looks!” We entered into our school work with such vio- lent ardor that all the faculty — even Mr. Held — became strong supporters of the theory of optical illusions. We selected our class rings with notori- ously good judgment, characteristic of our famous class. Then April 25th came and with it the
