THE GLEAM. 25 CLASS HISTORY. The first thing that happened to us, the class of '12, was that we hap- pened to be Freshmen. H-ow could we be other than Green Freshies, when most of us hadn't been in I, H. S. since the Annex had been built? How could we find the studio, or the laboratory without first ,getting into two or three wrong rooms and how on earth could we tell that thoise blanks on our enrollment cards meant the study hall? We managed to get through the first few weeks of school, with neither loss of life nor injuries to anything except to our feelings, and soon felt as much at home in I. H. S. as if we'd been there all our lives. Then we organ- ized our class. The ideal Freshman president must be very imposing, taller than the Sophomore's and as tall as the Senior's, therefore we elected Fred Pitt for our president. Before we realized it, the last day of sch-ool was at hand, with our cards telling us that we were no longer Freshmen. 4 Isn't it 'glorious to be a Sophomore l we all thought when we came back to I. H. S. It took longer to get the Freshmen out of our assembly seats than itidid to find out what everyone thought of the Sophs. Just imagine us having to listen to a forty minute lecture on the Great Junior Class, or worst of all knowing that orations on those awful Sophs were being de- livered in a certain Freshman Class, not by the Freshies, of course not, but by the illustrious dame who taught that class. All this only made us work the harder and aroused our slumbering class spirit until we even dared to yell in assembly one morning. But we had a good reason to yell, for hadn't We defeated the Iunior's at Basket Ball? Our picnic out at Elizabeth Bellis with the customary Sophomore rain, closed our second year in I. H. S. ' - i VVe returned to school with the intention of i-mpressing everyone that we were a class of great importance. We had always had plenty of class spirit, but for some reason or other, we could'n't make anyone believe it. Soon we made the Sophs and Freshies very envious of urs, for anyone who did not attend our Hallowe'en party, should never mention to us the good times they have had in I. H. S. It would take all the pages in the Gleam and more too, if we tried to tell everything about that party, but we simply must tell of one incident. In the midst of a very exciting game of drop the handkerchief, in which Prof. Bryant. and Prof. Palmer were taking prominent parts, the door noise- lessly opened, a ghost came in-, then another and another, t-hen we lost count, and a silent procession of ghosts was soon marching around the room. At first we were too dazed for words or action, then we heard Prof. Sex- ton yell, f'Come on J'unior's and come we did, as we're certain any of the
