®lje (Elaafi of ’23 OFFICERS May Gay ...........................................President Richard Tong .................................Vice-President John Matsumuba ....................................Secretary William Wolters....................................Treasurer It HEN the class of ’23 hit the University of Hawaii in their fresh- man year, they hit it with fifty-nine strong. Of that fifty-nine there were thirty-eight who weathered the stormy year and were able to return as Sophomores. A few more were battered down during the Sophomore year and so the present Junior class has but thirty-five members. It must not be thought, however, that just because the class of ’23 has only thirty-five members that it doesn’t take an active part in school activities. We were represented on the Varsity football team by Jacoljson, Alexander, C. Searle, Lambert, and Kinney. This quintet certainly did their share toward the success the Varsity at- tained during the past season. Next year’s football captain has been selected from the roster of ’23. The honor fell to Jacobson, who played a consistent game as guard on the Varsity during the past season. In basketball, the Juniors furnished two strong men. We also entered a team in the Intermural contests. Aside from these two major sports the class of ’23 produced a swimming team that cleaned up on some of the other classes. It hasn’t been the boys only, who have helped make the Junior class notable. The girls, of whom we have very few, have certainly done their bit toward making the class year a success. The shining light of the class has been May Gay. She has reigned supreme as president of the class and is in entire charge of girls’ athletics. Another branch of activities which the Juniors have taken part in is dramatics. Juniors have not only acted on the stage, but have been very instrumental in the success of the plays by working for their production. ■ thirty
