GET TOGETHER Every train filled to the aisles, cars coniing and going . . . Magill a steady stream of prodigal sons and daughters drag- ging over-stufted suitcases up the long trek and about to die of the heat in new fall clothes with the thermometer wavering between 85 and 90 . . . Parrish, Wharton, Worth agog with, How ' s the boy? ' ' Darling, how wonderful to see you! Nice summer? Great to be back! Halls filled with trunks, buildings and grounds filled with people. In short, that fateful Tuesday had arrived and with it the Great Awakening; for the College in awakening from the sum- mer solitude of quiet buildings and deserted lawns; for the freshmen an awakening to the hard, cold fact that all is not as it seemed during those past five halcyon days in what had the appearance of being the Ideal-Week-End ' Resort on the Banks of the Beautiful Crum; for the upper- classmen an awakening to the responsibilities that a new year and a new position on the ladder had placed on their shoulders. Freshmen go about a little bewildered by the excitement of it all and a little disconcerted to find that all sopho- mores, juniors, and seniors do not fall under one of three headings, namely. Smiling Mortar Board, Helpful Book and Key, and Interested Athletes. And the most un- kindest cut of all, they find that everyone doesn ' t eat every meal at mixed tables nor dance every night in Collection. Their eyes are opened. The upperclassmen, the impression gained by the frosh notwithstanding, are a little bewildered and disconcerted, too. The gentle proddings of time have become increas- ingly more persistent. Where have the years gone? Is it possible that we are sophomores . . . juniors . . . seniors . . . already? Gradually, however, that newness of it all wears off. The new groove is formed quickly, imperceptibly. The only big change, really, is that last year ' s seniors have gone and this year ' s freshmen have come. But adjustments are made easily and life goes on much as before.
