Treasurer IIISTOHY OF CLASS 'I'llBliE Aided by the oft-reiterated descriptions which form the introduction of every Well- regulated class history, we can still remember our A' prep i' days, although four years have passed since we began our ardent pursuit of knowledge at Thayer. As the sixth class, we elected class officers, presented three scenes from Dickens' Christ- mas Carol, and published the 6' Now and Then,', a class magazine. In the fall of 523, our ranks were swelled to twice their former number by graduates from the Braintree and Quincy grammar schools. Our class, in spite of the inevitable changes time brings, remains on the whole as it was then. During our third year, we worked hard, both scholastically and athletically. Our boys began to be represented on the football and baseball second teams, and our girls showed the upper classes there was need to look to their laurels. This fall, after a series of thrilling hockey games, our girls lost the championship, one ill-fated day. We take consolation in the fact that the victors will still be here next year. Beware, '27! Several of the boys made the football team, which played in the South Shore League. The games were thrillers! Both boys and girls are working hard for '28 in basketball. Another exciting event in the third class year is the award of the Lincoln Essay Medal. We listened with both pleasure and protit to the reading of the essays by Katherine Mac- Kinnon, Bobert Hutton, Frances Baker, and Carolyn Ferris. We, the class of ,28, still look forward to the time when we shall be august seniors, but as the years roll on, some of the golden haze has vanished, and we try in vain to hold the joyous mist that eludes us and slips through our fingers.

Treasurer HISTORY OF CLASS FOUR T. A. '29! With this honorable Lille to write proudly after our names, We felt we might even dare this untried world of learning, might pry with curious fingers into the secrets of the Ancients, and try for ourselves the tongue of the Caesars! XVe were the sixth class! During that first year, We gave a presentation of 'S Master Skylarkf' that met with success beyond our wildest hopes, and we contributed a long list of names to the Honor Roll. Next came another year of baby olass,', and now we are Juniors, placed at last out of the clutches of our all too present older brothers and sisters, who expound the theory of Fresh is the freshman, who doesn't need salt. We are not yet notables of the gridiron or track, but We try, and keep on trying, and some day - who knows what fame We may not win for ourselves, and for dear old T.
