History of Sophomore Class aw T HE 18th of September, 1900, is one of the most memorable dates in the - annals of St. John's College. On that day there came here a band of youths such as had never been here before. Qur historian of last year has told the history of the beginning of this noble class, and it has been given to me to continue the great work begun by my most worthy predecessor. Of course, the first thing to do was to organize ourselves into a body. A meeting was called and we elected the following class oflicers: John F. Mudd, president 5 J. Wirt'Wilmer, vice-president, and P. C. jones, secretary and treasurer. The part we took in football, and how we studied during the winter and boned for our exams., has already been told. I Before the close of college we had attained such a degree of superiority both in the classroom and on the athletic field that President Fell pronounced us to be the best all-round Freshmen class that had been here during his presidency. We certainly have proved this to be true. In our field meet with the upper classes we came out in the fourth place, yet in our other games, as in' baseball, we came out with flying colors. In our field meet, notwithstanding that fourth place is the lowest place, we 'scored 25M out of the I46 points possible, against 2 points made by the Freshman class of the year before. Cooper did good work putting the shot, and would, undoubtedly, have taken flrst place had it not been for his sprained wrist. All three places in pole vaulting were taken by Halbert, Mudd and Revell. Tarbert won the quarter-mile run and Halbert, Cronin, Burwell and Scarborough easily won the mile relay. The relay team that was sent to Philadelphia included two of our members-Halbert and Cronin. The inter-class baseball games now engaged our attention, and we practiced very hard every day before the games. There was slightsdoubt as to the out- come of these games, but, of course, we expected to win them. The junior class f'o2j', called the Banner Class, only by themselves, however, supposing themselves to be superior in every respect to all the other classes, thought, or at least said, that they would have a cinch with us. But, alas! Poor Juniors! Beaten by a team of measly, contemptible, insignificant Freshmen. We defeated them by the score of I4 to 2. In our other games we were equally successful. The Seniors forfeited to the Sophomores, and we defeated Sophomores by a score of 6 to I, only one man reaching third base. We also defeated the Preps. by a score of IO to 4. Much credit is due to our pitcher, and also to the men who backed him, for these brilliant victories. The teamwas made up as follows: 76 '
