They aim to always have her banner floating above all others. Gold her love for wisdom tokens. YVhite her hope of spotless fame. These two things these colors stand for.

Class History POLITICAL CAMPAIGNS In 1924 the Hrst campaign for the officers was held by Class '28. There being two provinces to govern, each province held separate elections. All officials were to be elected by the people and excitement ran very high. There were many candidates, fully able to rule the subjects and the supporters very loyal. The following officers were chosen, however, as most capable: President, F. Bangert, C. Beckstedt, Vice President, F. Morbitzer, L. Gress, Secretary, D. Thomas, F. Dwyer, Treasurer, M. Bagley, VV. Hieman. The election of officers for 1925 was a very interesting one. As in the preceding year there was to be a group of officials to rule each dominion. The ballots showed these returns: President, C. Kauderer, F. Eyerman, Vice President, VV. Bierburg, F. Dwyer, Secretary, V. Connors, H. Fischer, Treasurer, D. Thomas, G. Langenfelt. These officers proved themselves very capable of the position and were duly rewarded by the faith of the class. In 1926 the election was one of the most important ever held, chiefly because of the important affairs which were to be taken care of during that session. Again? the officers were chosen wisely, the choice being: President, C. Beckstedt, Vice President, T. McGuire, Secretary, V. Connors, Treasurer, E. Betts. The little community prospered under this regime and the prospects for the coming year were very bright. The most important election ever to be held by this community was in September of 1927. The polls were opened from 9 to IO A. M. and were very much rushed with business. The responsible positions again were to be centered upon one set of officers, who would take care of both social and financial diffi- culties. The electioneering was done in a friendly manner and wonderful results were obtained. The ticket was decidedly democratic as the results show: Presi- dent, S. Mundy, Vice President, M. Loviner, Secretary, F. Dwyer, Treasurer, C. Gloeckner. MILITARY CAMPAIGNS The allied powers of Studies declared war against the Freshmen of '28, early in the fall of 1924. The Freshmen were confident of victory because of their earlier conquest of Elementary Studies and they began the battle with the same vim which characterized all their later actions. Their enemies represented the united forces of Spanish, History, Science, English and Algebra, lead by the fierce Latin tribe. These were powerful enemies and they presented a bold front, but in the terrible war which ensued they found that the Freshman hordes were not to be scorned. Battles raged almost constantly for ten months, but at the end of that time the Studies were completely subjugated. In a peace treaty, signed in June, 1925, each of the conquered tribes agreed to pay to every Freshman soldier one credit as a sign of servitude, and the possession of which would gain them deference from the tribes. After the treaty had been signed, the tribes withdrew from High School Land. A period of two months passed in peace, and during this time Class ,28 dropped the name of Freshman as its suggestion of novice,' was put to shame by their recent victories and adopted the tribal name of Sophomore, as they deemed this more fitting to their achievements. 98
