16 THE PANDORA OF ’87. T is with a great deal of difficulty that the historian of ’87 collects together enough matter to present a pretense at a readable piece. Our class was born in October, 1883, and is, of course, very near three years of age. In the Freshman year ’87 was rather below the average, in the opinion of others, but not of ourselves. The voyage through the first year was, however, calm and serene, and landed about twenty-five safely into the Sophomore Class. This class is generally the largest and one of the best in the University, and it remained for ’87 to show up as preceding Sophomore Classes have done. We were increased by about fifteen men, which made us number fully thirty-five, or about half the number ’86 possessed in the Sophomore year. But we found great consolation in the fact that we possessed quality, and not quantity. Our class was never composed of many fine orators, but we depended on deep-thinking and sober students. When the Spring Debate Election roiled ’round in early ’85, both the Demos-thenian and Phi Kappa societies were made aware of this fact. It was impossible to secure the requisite number of debaters from the class. So the debate was killed—at least for one year—and Class ’87 did the work. The year ’85 passed gently by, and when the fall term was upon us new sheep were ready and anxious to enter the “ flock,” We now number forty. Looking over the names of the present members of the class, I see but few of the names of those who started away back in the Freshman year. Time has worked many changes, as has also “ Soph. Math.” As the Sophomore rises to be a Junior, he finds one great bugbear, “Junior Math; ” and to avoid it, the B. C. S. course is resorted to by many, and it is found to be a great advantage towards securing a “ sheepskin.” As to the composition of this class, it possesses moral boys, im-
