I Qy.,p2.Tag,.-aids: -1- HE first occasion upon which all fi- 2 es- . :uf three classes meet together 111 col- ,ff-T: lege is the Freshman Recep- tionf' The word Reception,'l if V T i 557 55:1 l, I . . . . . 111 .5-Y gg: .QQ as applied to this affair, IS practically C a misnomer. gf Everyone goes and is supposed to ' f make themselves at home and there is no ,,.1','a ' X receiving outside of the work done by 5 the Reception Committee, which consists T5--1 , . . ' XE of three Seniors and three juniors. The if S Reception is really a dance, and the one in 1 Z ' X . ,K f QQ honor of the present F 1CSh1T1CI'1 took place X i in the College Building on Parnassus E Ave., in the early part of the term. All the upper classmen certainly felt very big as they strutted around with heads thrown high and chests expanded, seeming to say, Look upon me with awe, I am an upper classmanl' When some inquiring Freshman would want to know where the punch bowl was, a Senior or junior would say, My boy, this is a Reception to F1'c'slz1f1ze1z, who are not allowed to indulge in anything stronger than lemonade, so help yourself, and the crestfallen Freshie would wall: slowly, but sadly away. Lemonade was king that night, and that was before Carrie Nation came to town, too! It wasn't even circus lemonade, just plain, ordinary, everyday lime-juice, sugar and water. However, outside of a few cases of gastritis from the lime-juice, a case of seasickness from the water, and some sweetened dispositions from the sugar, nothing serious resulted. Gonzalez, the floor manager, was in his glory, and earned many a fair young lady's gratitude fand perhaps the musicians' displeasurej by his cheery 'fToot! toot ! for a few more bars of a favorite tune. To the Committees on Arrangements and Decoration a great deal of credit is due. Miss Marshall, as head of the Decoration Committee, made a record, and without her and Miss Bacigalupi much of the artistic ar- rangement and beauty of the decorations would have been wanting. The Freshman reception and dance has now acquired the dignity of a college custom. May succeeding classes keep alive this social func- tion, where Freshman meets Freshman, as well as upper classman. Outside of the lecture room. 54

if you are fond of the game, or to watch the others, sitting in lazy contentment drinking in the pure fresh air? An organization of some sort should be perfected, either among the dental students alone, or better, among the students of the allied depart- ments, whereby inter-class games and tournaments might be played. This would offer one vent for the healthy rivalry existing between the classes, and our common rivalry for the pill rollers and medicos . ln the spring the fever gets us and no thoughts of exes menaceg In the spring a young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts oftennisf' f' has mx.
