tf ft e iass tf ' HE undergraduate career of the Class of ' 92 is all but closed, and for the last time are we permitted to narrate to the world through the BLUE AND GOLD some few of our many glorious achievements and numerous virtues. Be it known, then, that we are and have been a most remarkable class. There never has been, never will be, or never could be a similar aggregation capable for a moment of being compared to us in anything noble, lofty, distinguishing, or soul-inspiring. Ninety-two will stand forever as a model, an ideal toward which subsequent classes will forever strive, but which, approached as near as may be, they can never hope to reach. Having thus prepared the reader to expect the great things hereinafter to be related, and that he may not doubt the truths here written, we shall proceed to enumerate some few of the great events that have transpired since ' 92 has graced Berkeley ' s grand old halls of learning. What a career we had as Freshmen, we knew it all from the start, the Juniors could not teach us anything. We were bold, brave men to fool with, as our friend, the enemy, too soon found out. What, though our most esteemed President forbade the rush and desired not the wild and woolly midnight scrimmage, we honorably disobeyed, and downed the enemy at every turn. Our first glee was a huge success, unmarred by any of the attempted acts of violence and strategy on the part of our not much lamented nor yet all- departed friends of ' 91. Our grandest first-year success, however, was our Bourdon burial. We had a real crema- tion of a real coffin (life size) on a real pyre. The distinguishing feature of all our class affairs has been the boldness and magnitude of all our concep- tions, together with our unparalleled unanimity of spirit, bravery and surpassing strength in bringing them to a successful culmination. 29
