Let me say to you who expect to enter; do not allow your knees to knock together. If your teeth are prone to chatter, clinch them, put on a bold front, for it is the fearful ones that get hazed. How we passed the fi.rst day without any se:ious blunders is still a mystery. ~o one :::ugge~ted where to find the ~lain Assembly so we followed the mob and used our common sense. In two weeks we held a class party and elected our officers. Harold ... e1hofl' was the natural choice for president, as the majority of the class were girls and he was the fairest of the male sex. Before the end of the year five of our classmates dropped out. Such was ou_· freshman year. \Ye entered the Sophomore class with thirty-two mem- bers. \Ye determined that we would study so hard this year that when examinations came we would be exempt. The only rea son some of us didn't get exempt was becau::~e \\'e did not study hard nough. Our spare time was taken up in watching the Freshmen. The only excitement we had was the Freshman Reception we gaYe after about three weeks of school. Although we- do not claim to haYe the largest, we do claim to have the be. t class in Iligh S<.:hool.
