THE GAVELYTE. 33 Sophomore History The hot wind of 1909 had ceased to blow and the eool breezes of a beautiful September came in their stead. With the coming of these. came a cla s to edarville College that will never be forgotten. Twenty– four new tudent added their names to the roll, forming the large t class eyer attending Cedarville. Yet was the class great in number a] one ? o ! Attempts for the usual initiations ,vere made, yet the Freshmen of 1909 could hold their own. In athletics they were looked upon as the coming tar '. In the cla s-room they clearly and surely revealed their ability and were recognized as authorities by many. In dramatic arts they were there "with the goods". everal of our number after the first year realized their ability to teach, and since that time have proven their competency. For this rea on the first semester of the next year opened ·with several of our number missing, only thirteen being with us out of that glorious twenty-four. It i unneces– sa1-y to say that we are doing just so much the more to keep our "rep". Have our efforts been in vain 1 Ask the professors. Both boys and girls have easily maintained the honors of class champion- hip in basket ball . . The Sophomores furnished three of the stars to the gir]s' state championship team, and the varsity with three of their reliable '' goal tossers''. '' Cedar Day '' would have been tame without the Soph 's waving stunt and their array of flashy colors. 7 May "onward, upvvard" be our motto still, And Ne' er one task may we slight, May "red and black" oar to some high hiJl Always the emblem of truth and th right.
