it did during this year, we shall all be "P's,' The most renowned of all these "P's" is Polly. This great combination of Cicero, Calhoun, and Clay can stand off any man in the building, where it comes to logic, debate or forensic discus- sion. He has, after three years of hard work, convinced the class that he knows nothing. But nevertheless we ex- pect to hear great results from our Polly, leading man of the P's. It would not be Wright to portray any other man's abilities after showing those of Polly, because they wou1d cer- tainly suffer in the contrast. Therefore we will beg to be let down easy in relating the history of our other members. Next, we have the judge, who with the gravest aspect and most astute countenance, preponderates concerning the fundamental principles of jurisprudence, and, as it were, ceases the discussion by deciding the prodigious case. Then we have the son with his two Papa's, Pete with his Bill Bailey, Petite with his ravings of John McCuHough, Cretan, the renowned football hero with his record of killing three men, and several others whose deeds and titles would fiH a book. But coming now to the real progress made by 1905, we can proudly show our achievements and justly uphold them as being worthy of the emulation of any class. We have our share of athletes, orators, elocutionists, debaters, actors, lovers, in fact anything that chances to stand upon College Hill. We have had a remarkable year of peace and enjoyement with the other classes, and hoping that this peace will continue throughout our remaining course, we turn onward to the path which says, "Higher, higher must you go." In our athletics we have been somewhat handicapped by losing two of our ablest men in that department, Messrs. Tredway and Wilson. Certainly their absence is to be deplored, but 1905 will strive to do her best, and since the god of fortune has always crowned our efforts, we still hope to succeed. Her deeds in the past will stand the test for the future, and 1905 will always hold a place on the lists of victory in her career at W. M. C. How can we go on without attempting to show forth the many qualities of our girls, To portray correctly and ful1y what they are, is a task that calls upon the pen of a Shakespeare. Therefore we must make apologies in under- taking to do justice to them in these pages. United they stand, unequaHed and unrivalled. From the day of their entrance into college, through three years of trial and discipline, they have stood the test, and stand today the symbol of true union. And in pronouncing them as the most united class of W. M. c., we claim another advantage for 1905. They are studious when it is necessary and as fun loving as the name "Jolly junior" implies. Now we turn to trace the progress of 1905 as a whole. We came together in our freshman year an army of raw 94
