X an tax A it MLM We were the last class to participate in the annual uPants Fight. That great tradi- tion was sadly abused and we can truthfully say that those who have not had the op- portunity to participate in a Mljants Fight, have missed a part of their college Educa- tion. The big event in our Sophomore year was our class banquet, which was held in the Adelphia Hotel. On this great occasion speeches, good fellowship, and upeppy enter- tainment contributed to the success of an evening that will not soon be forgotten by any one. Our athletic standard-bearers of '28 were represented on the gridiron, the court, the cinder path, and the diamond, proving themselves excellent ,varsity material. The first part of our next year was given over to the Junior elections, and after a long and arduous campaign, we elected the following officers: Dorn Stewart, Presi- dent, Fred Gentsch, Vice-President, Brad Shea, Secretary, Milt Hofkin, Treasurer, and ack Du Vinage, Historian. Our school year advanced rapidly and soon the traditional MJunior Week en- thralled us. Jack Sebastian was the General Chairman and on Monday morning, No- vember 22nd, Junior Week officially opened. VV e can still feel that thrill of walking to a nine o'clock with our canes proudly displayed to a serene collegiate world. At eleven o'clock we were dismissed from our classes and we gathered on the Junior Balcony for our class picture. This was followed by the uCane Marchi' led by Dorn Stewart and Folwell Scull, to Houston Hall, where Jack Sebastian offered a good sales-talk for whole-hearted support of the Prom. Monday evening we all reas- sembled in Houston Hall for the Junior Smoker, which had been planned by Bill Smith, long to be remembered because of vivid impressions and first row blushes. Wednesday night, in accordance with custom, the University Musical Clubs gave their 'annual concert in the Academy of Music, followed by a formal dance in the Foyer. Thanksgiving Day gave place t0 0116 of the biggest events of the week, when Juniors, escorting their fair ones, witnessed the ten-ten tie with Cornell. After the game, the remainder of the day was taken up largely by Fraternity Tea Dances and Theatre parties. Friday night was the culmination of the week's activities. The Junior Prom, under the able direction of Bob Vlfitter, took place in Weighman Hall, where many a fair heart throbbed with the wonder and splendor of the occasion. While enjoyable memories of Junior Week still lingered, Mid-years Were upon us, and then pushed into the background. The Chris- tian Association conducted the annual Memo- rial Hall Dinner and our class responded nobly to the call. The Juniors that were honored by being members of Phi Kappa Beta Junior Society Were: Davis, Douglas, Button, Gates, Stevens, Sanford, Connell, Hake, Malone, Matthews. ll Q1 McDowell, Scull, Stewart, Talbot.

' l l M OUR short years have passed since we, the Class of 1928, paid our first humble re- aff, spect to our honored founder, Benjamin Franklin. We wonder at the passing of 5 I time and our four glorious years here at Pennsylvania. j j It seems but yesterday that Leonard Dill was elected Temporary President in our fiaifiil Freshman year, and Bill Brennan, Temporary Secretary-Treasurer. Later in Novem- ilfrrji ber, we can well recall J ack McDowell campaigning in the Dorms for the party which elected Bill Dern, President, Joe Podger, Vice-President, Jack McDowell, Secretary, ljf' U gf' , Wo1'tli Button, Treasurer, and Bill Shore, Historian. ,3f Of course we put up a valiant fight to win the Penniman BoWl,tunder the leader- 4 l ship of Ed Irish, but our arch enemies, the Class of '27, were victors by a narrow 5 S+ ' margin. jr Our Freshman year was filled with fond memories and our yell, l9You're the Fish, il Welre the bait, Pennsylvania '28,,' will linger on in our minds for many years to come. ff 7' Hey Day climaxed our activities as Freshmen. It was at this time that many of QQ1Ej,.., our classmates and a great many of our rivals were immersed in the frog pond, and we fry still rememloer Johnny Bogdan doing a triple somersault and landing in the famous j i! ff J. ooze. 4 . .. y Many obnoxious and loquacious Sophomores were made to feel their presence on the Campus was undesirable. Be it said, that because of the too strenuous action on l gvij the part of both classes, the activities were curbed for further classes. j.. j At the beginning of our Sophomore year, we returned to the Campus to find that f l our President, Bill Dern, could not be with us, and the Undergraduate Council filled .lx his vacancy by electing our Freshman Vice-President to carry on as temporary Presi- Qj i Q dent of the Class of '28, until our Sophomore Officers could be elected. 'A Now we had arrived at a dignified station in life, no more black, socks, dinks, or 1 Ji matches to adorn our person, and to weigh us down with infinite responsibilities. We could throw out our chests and feel that we were now somebody. 2 f J A X Soon our class elections were held and we chose as the leaders of our class, Worth X259 K Button, President, Sumner Davis, Vice-President, Fred Goodwin, Secretary, Bernie p Lowy, Treasurer, and ,lack Berry as Class Historian. 'Ft n ,lack McDowell was chosen chairman of the Vigilance Committee, and he, with 7' swift and firm justice, exacted from the yearlings the respect and attention due our jj j' class. Weekly meetings were held and stern, yet just disciplinary measures were QQ meted out. Q rv In the early part of our Sophomore year we easily obtained the lead in the Penni- il. ty' man Bowl contests. Our conquests were the MFlour Fight, MRope Fight, and the . j, 5 majority of the Athletic conquests. Unfortunately the contests were called off early l i' : I j in May, thus preventing us from gaining possession of the coveted Bowl. , t ,153 , l . -t.1 .

We could not have se- lected a better man, for he has served the interest of our class well, and to him we owe many of the triumphs and distinctions that have been accorded to the Class of '28, The Undergraduate Council was selected and the following men represented the various schools and departments: Baxter, Mead, Smith, Wvitter, McDowell, Wvright, An- derson, and Samson. The third milestone had been passed, we returned to .our homes for a most delight- ful vacation and rest to fit ourselves for the biggest year in our whole college career, a year that will remain in our memory throughout our entire lifetime. On our return to the University in the fall, the minor class officers were elected: Haggerty, Vice-President, Hausman, Secretary, and Rosen, Treasurer. Milt Hof- kin was appointed Chairman of the Blazer Committee. Our football team was piloted through a good season by Captain MEd Hake, ably assisted by Sanford, F. Scull, McGinnis, Darby, Lenzner, Downey, Wascolonis, Hoff- man, Moore, Kashowitz, Titzell, all of the Class of 728. L'Tom Gates was the capable Manager with Stevens as his associate. The basketball team was headed by Captain uGene Connell, who, with the aid of his valiant teammates, Lukaswitz, Matthews, and Chapman, brought our basketball team to thrilling victories in the Palestra and then the Intercollegiates Championship. Rowing-the aristocrat of all-with Manager Mitchell at the helm and Fred Gentsch holding the captaincy, found a wealth of material in the class. Stan Sweetser, Herman Jordan, ,lim Bailey, Don Coates, .Tack Oerter, and .Tack Sebastian pulled the Red and Blue oars for old Penn. Jack Berry served as mcoxw most of the time. Baseball saw an almost complete '28 Team on the field, Captain Sanford, Herb Tashjian, Matthews, Hook Walker, Berney Deutch, Gene Connell, Pete Cole, Pearl- man, Darby, O'Hara, Thomas, were members of this great Pennsylvania organization. 4 MBob7' Barker and Norman Malone were 'the Manager and Associate, respectively. The varsity Soccer team was aided by Captain ulerryw West, Vollmer, Shelmire, Matthews, and Pratt. .Tack McDowell was on the scene of action as Manager. The Track team under the direc- tion of Manager Douglas and his As- sociate, Ralph Estus, produced the following wearers of the Red and Blue on the cinder path: Captain F olwell Scull, Heilprin, Fletcher Moore, Greene, Kannick, Lowey, Franks, and Martin. Our minor sports teams were largely selected from the ranks of '28: in fact, the class contributions are going to be sadly missed next year.
