LeBoeuf Secretary (Elaaa Sjiatnry On Sept. 13, 1913 Rhode Island flung wide her portals to admit a heterogen- ous mass of humanity which has since crystalized into the class of 1917. Un- der the at.acks of the upper-classmen an intense class spirit developed among us that enabled our class football team to down the Varsity in practice games bin as individuals, however, we were so green and lacking in confidence that little was heard of our class the first half of our freshman year. We were beaten by the Sophs in track 62-50 and in football 6-0. In basketball we came back and beat the Sophomores by narrow margins in two games. Our first Varsity letter was won in track thai spring and we also had men on the baseball team. We placed two men on the Varsity debating team and were represented on the Beacon Board. Several members of our class were in the Glee Club and the College Orchestra and two of the freshmen were members of the Dramatic Club. In September of the following year, we sent out fifteen men for football, six of whom made the Varsity. That winter the discovery of a dark horse among the Sophomores made an unbea.cn Varsity Relay team possible. As Sophomores we continued our good work in literary lines, placing two men on the Varsity debating team and winning two of the prizes in the Kingston essay contest. We also pro- vided our share of Varsity men tor the track and baseball teams. The class suf- fered severely from the College sieve that year. 19
