VERDANT FRESHMEN 10 Having been collected from Oskwagachee, Mudhollow Junction, and Bangup Corners, we found ourselves ,here- at State. So what? So we go to Freshman Camp. So We get pushed around by the sophomores, and scowled at by upper-classmen. But it doesn't take us long to catch on. By the time schoo starts we know pretty much what it7s all about-didnit we elect Tom F eeney as our president? And Shirley Eastman's a cute' little number-as our vice-president she'd make a good date. F I V Comes Campus Day. And boy, do We show these kids around here what a real class can do! Not only do We give the Sophs the Worst fight they'll ever 'see in pushball, but, believe it or not, we put on such a beautiful stunt that night-we Win the Whole thing and take first prize-N ow what do you think of that? And thatis not alle-not by a long shot. Because you see, there,s a lot more to come-a lot more. ,lust for instance, We've got a Freshman basketball team this year that's really something. All We've got to say is, try and beat us. And speaking of athletics, we broke all precedent in this place. Did you ever before hear of a Freshman team 'I've seen greens of every shade, I've seen greens of every hue-- Olive, emerald, lettuce and jade, Nile, aqua and greenish blue, The green that covers the hillside The greens that are bizarre, But never have I seen a green, As green as Freshmen are! F eeney, Bradt, Eastman, Wal'ter
