CHARLES D. WHITWAM EVA ROSECRANS HARRV BAKER Ouviz Bukcnrusr. Treasurer P1'e:1'de1zt Secretary If'1'ce-Pn'rz'dent Sophomores Colors SORREL AND DRAB. H Sophomore History HE girls in the Sophomore class outnumber the boys. Doubtless, that is the reason we are called Hthe jolliest class in all the school. The Freshman year was a continual round of new experiences. We then had much to learn, and many were the pitfallslset for our unwary feet. That we all escaped alive is a cause for continual thanksgiving. But with the advent of our Sophomore year came a conndence before unknown. With Rosecrans for President and Baker for class Fool, things were sure to hum. Our President is indeed HRosy in more ways than one. Many times in the darkness the Ere from her brilliant head struck terror to the hearts of our foes. Gur motto has been, HSomething doin. Our Hl'St serious blunder, CFO1' even we, Htell it not in Gath, have made blundersj was in holding out the olive Cbranch not Burchtiell to the Freshies. Inviting them to our President's home, we did our best to entertain with games and toys, but it all proved to be merelylcasting pearls before swine, and no return reception was ever given. 28

Certainly no one will ever forget our boat ride on the classic waters CU of the Walnut that moonlight night in October. That the boats were stolen by some Freshmen while lunch was being eaten, thus compelling us to walk back in the moonlight, but gave an added interest to the occasion. Then, who of us can forget those semi-monthly gatherings at our Presidentls home? Surely there was never known another class President such as ours. Courageous, resourceful, daring, and ingenious, an ideal parliamentarian, with great inventive powers for the new and original in methods of entertainment and plans for outwitting the Faculty, ably seconded by her committee, Marshall, Andrus, Crump and Wells, she so planned that the memory of these occasions will ever be stored away among the fond recollections of the blissful past. Such yells! Such fun! Such games! Such songs! Such frolics! Surely the like was never seen before. HFren'zied Sophomores indeed were we. Twice our watchful foes attempted a raid upon the Uviandsn prepared by our Fair ones for the inner man. Each time they were discovered by our Sentinel HOld Sharp Eyes CF. Torrance! and compelled to retire baffled and defeated. In these contests Sling 'em Hard tCrumpD and HCuter CHottenD wrought magnificently. Recently one has been missed from our meetings-Our Bell. She was loved- certainly by one of us, but she is gone,-deserted to the juniors. We now have a vacant chair which by order of our class poet CBoehmeU is draped in crimson. She was loved but now fhlllf have her, We Shall hear her laugh no moreg We had trusted to retain her, Now our hearts are sad and sore. And now with a confidence in ourselves that we are equal to all emergencies, superior to all our foes, with a scholarship and learning as yet unsurpassed, and a feeling that we are wiser than we have been or shall be again, we pass on to the Uuntrodden mysteries of the year before us.
