SENIOR HISTORY ,N E X CLASS history is unlike all other kinds of histories, in that it does not attempt to describe 3 ' the past, but merely to recall it. It is a sort of reminder, touching only on the more salient incidents of .our college course. The unabridged -history of our class has been gB written, where it will never be destroyed, in the memories of all our classmates. f 5 ' Let us reconsider for a moment the three short years 1'eco1'ded by former historians, which have brought us to the grave responsibilities ot Seniors. From the day we entered the 'Stute, one hundred and twenty strong, 1906 has been a bulwark to the name of Stevens in thc athletic field and elsewhere. All great things come in pairs. Therefore it was very fitting that, simultaneously with the advent of '06, should come to the Presidency one of the greatest of Stevens's sons. We wish to acknowledge here that part of the rapid advances and marked prosperity of Stevens during the undergraduate life of 1906 may be due to his influence. Our first introduction to Prexy was on the day we both entered. He came out to congratulate us after we had taken the baby carriage away from the brutal UD Sophomore class. And the affectionate spirit which was then instituted between us has continued and grown ever since. Well, our Freshman year was a fitting start for the glorious career which has since been ours. In class athletics we shut out the Sophomores, winning all three canes and all the Lacrosse games. 1906 has also the distinction of being the only class which has never been sentenced to serve a term of summer work. It was apparent to the powers that be that a supp term was not necessary for such an ex- ceptional class. In the Sophomore year we not only exceeded our record of the previous year in class athletics, but supported the varsity teams to a greater extent than is usual for an underclass. A welcome change in the faculty came at this time in the extermination of the Gink. For once the classes of 1905 and 1906 united to do a good work. With the usual demonstrations in the annihilation of the arch-fiend, etc., Calculus, our under- class career ended and in the fall we took up the role of Juniors. It did not take us long to find out how little we had to know to get along in Jimmy D., how little it was possible to learn in Furman and how much was expected of us in Ganz. The social event of the Junior year was a Prom which manifestly surpassed any which had ever been held at the Institute before. The ingenious electric fountain and light effects gave a glimpse of the inventive and engineering ability of our marvelous class. But the great success of the Prom depended, not on this, nor on the large number who were present. Mere prose will not describe the Stevens girl. Here our pen fails and every man is his own historian. Let's hope it's not past history. 26
