ZIk Cl ass of jRtneteemCtoentp Uonorarp Member Professor Samuel Harvey Webster Officers Frederick Robinson Briggs President Mildred Elizabeth Edwards Pice-President Elsie Law Thackray Secretary Arthur Edmond Haslam Treasurer HI )f liistorp of j15inctrcn=Utocntp In the fall of the year 1916 we came to Rhode Island, a group of grown-up high school children — wide-eyed and open-mouthed. After carefully looking us over, the older studes decided to give us a trial. Proudly we donned our Freshmen Caps and the work of the worthy upper classmen was cheerfully accom plished. The result was that we made good. We were unsuccessful in both the rope pull and football game as the Sophs showed a little more experience. In basketball our latent ability in athletics came to the surface and we were successful in defeating all comers. As Sophs, our Hop was a great success and our athletic ability increased. We took the Freshmen into camp by defeating them at football, but in return we received a ducking, as we were unsuccessful in the rope pull. About this time the Great War was precipitated and our ranks were rapidly diminished. In January, 1918, part of the class reassembled to continue its work, but before the end of the year our ranks had increased considerably. Despite the uncertain times and decreased numbers we put forth a Junior Prom that was a great success. Later in the year we staged the Commencement Ball and Play, which added another laurel to our crown. Our Senior year found many old faces amongst our numbers, but due to the war some have never returned and for them we have a deep respect. Our Senior year is fast dying out and the day is coming when Commencement shall be the only thought in our minds. We have all been tried and true Rhode Islanders, and it grieves us to part with old friends and familiar scenes. However, we all have a task in this world and must say good-bye to our dear old Alma Mater, Rhode Island State College. 21
