Loyd Elliot, Pres. Claka McNkii., V. Pres. Harry Lusk, Secy, and Treas. Suniorfi In the minds of at least a dozen people on the campus the spring of 1911 has been marked by two memorable events. The first, on the tenth of February, was the birth of the Junior Class. On that day the dozen who had held aloof from class organizations throughout the year, met together and elected the officers for the class. As president, Lloyd Elliot was chosen, Miss Clara McNeil was selected for vice-president, and Harry Lusk for secretary. The second great event was on the fourteenth of March when the President, on calling a meeting, informed them that a pennant had been offered by the strongest baseball fan in the University, Professor Henly, to the class team which should make the highest percentage in a series of games to be played during the next five weeks among the classes of the University. The proposition was received with great interest; O. C. Geringer was made captain of the team. Practice was begun that afternoon and should the improvement continue which resulted from the first day’s practice, the final outcome of the series of games is easy to foretell.
