The History of the Class of '28 A s was the first the Class of '28 made a splendid record. We Our. foot~all team FreshmcI.l, the Sophs. did to conquer this to the 10 SIX years playing usually Season in the of the "Post basketball Later teristic tune of SIX to nothing, Classic" in a sea of mud which the boy's is charac- year team walked over the competition in the college to win the crown, but the now extinct "Brutes" trimmed us for the championship of the Hill. The girls' team nas always been a good one, and up in the fight all along. In our Sophomore year we were just as successful. We went through with the usual "Rat Catching" but did not let it take all of our time. In athletics, we were not as strong as in the previous year. We had lost many of our best men, and the Frosh beat us in football, seven to six. In basketball we were weakened also, but .managed to keep out of the cellar position. Along other hues we gave promise of being a class of "Starters" The girls handed down the first set of Freshman Rules in the history of the college. We published the first volume of the Students-Faculty Directory. With the co-operation of the Freshman Class and the Faculty, we standardized a college ring, something long needed on the Hill When we opened our Junior year that OUf President, "Denny" Young, who so successfully guided us as missing. In his stead we elected Mr. Hubert Johnson, who has a capable leader. Befitting our position we have branched out in many activities. On the Gold Bug staff, we are well represented, we gave several members of the Debating Team, and we are represented in all other college activities. Now, at the end of this year, we can only wait for the time when we shall be "dignified Seniors" with the assurance that our successes will be with us then as in the past pllge 011( hundred twwty-six
