Sophomore Year “Will the court please come to order!” A hush settled over the dining room as our Soph- omore Court took charge. Then followed a long list of charges and penalties. Were those Freshmen scared! And well they might have been when they beheld the stern looks of Gloria Seely, Carrie Slack, Malcolm Brown, Harold Howard, Stanley Bean, Joan Osthaus, Travers Sloyer, and Mr. Davies. Remember the early morning prayer meetings? Were they really at 6:45 as the notice said? Not many of us know—we never got there that early! Oh, yes, it was in our great Sophomore year that we had some rare escapades. Tom Evans probably will never forgive one of our members who aided in making the Boys’ Dorm, or the Farmhouse, really live up to its name. We understand Mr. Evans woke up with a chicken perched on his toes! Then later in the year one of our fellows, also feeling in the barnyard mood, decided to convert Lexington to a similar mood by slyly filling (so it seemed to Mrs. Springer) the phone booth with white chickens and also a small pig. When the telephone rang no one dreamed it was a joke, but, upon answering the phone, Mrs. Springer soon discovered it. Out flew the chickens and out ran a squealing, four-footed animal. They couldn’t find the door fast enough—neither could she. Not only were we possessed of a strange attraction for barnyard animals but also of pyro- mania. We girls then living at Lexington won’t forget the fiery cross the fellows put out on the south campus one night. Then just a few days later there was another fire. This time two fire engines came to the scene and all the girls ran out in pajamas—some with buckets of water. It was only another joke but the fire got a little too big so near the chapel. Then there was the time Mrs. Springer’s chair was put on the top of the windmill. Every- one came to the scene when it was lowered to the playing of “Taps” and brought back to its original place while Gordon MaclIntire and George Standard played “Retreat”. One of the best “Lit” programs, “The American Dream”, took place this year. Remember Bernie’s green light effect when Gene Wentling solemnly recited “I Have a Rendezvous with Death” and how well Harold Howard impersonated Abraham Lincoln? It was in our Sophomore year that the Student Council took over disciplinary matters and we students had to sign a pledge of co-operation (?). Remember the monitor system? Remember the Child Evangelism Rally at Ballbach’s church where Charles Anderson spoke and we all had to file out in the middle of his talk to get the D. C. bus? Remember who was on the bus that night? Mr. Luckman—for the first time in 2144 years. We were glad to see him; and, even though we didn’t know him ourselves, it didn’t take long to get ac- quainted. None of us will ever forget the Luckmans. Then came mid-term exams and the departure from our class of Harold Howard, Bernie Grunstra, and Stanley Bean. The next big event was the Valentine Formal—Pete and Kathy’s first date. It didn’t take them long! Then there was the basketball game with Princeton Seminary. Playing a big team was nice but it would have been nicer to win. This year, though, marked the beginning of a promising baseball team. Remember the game on the swampy Dobbinsville playground? Commencement marked an important event in the life of our second-year Spanish teacher, Miss Frank—her engagement. So ended an eventful Sophomore year.
