In September 1946, a group of thirty-three
small, quiet, sheepish little boys entered the
halls of Concordia. They were recognized as those
stupid little freshmen, The first few weeks they
remained rather quiet, but then a few turned out to
be real livewires. As the years moved on, a few of
our good friends fell by the way-side, but we also
&athered into our midst Herring, and J. P. Schulz.
Of those that left the fold, we distinctly remember
si~ch people as Wiesner, Hertel, raiser, "Salsky",
and "Bloody Iary".
In their freshman year, the class rartici gated
in the Senior's favorite pass-tine of shagging.
During their second yerr sha:ging began to grow
mild, and in their Junior year, there wasn't much
of it left. Now when they're Soniors, it is a
thing of the past. Although the Class put up a
great fight for the revival of this sport, it, like
the Aerican Buffalo, quickly disappeared,
One of our classes' favorite pass-timyes -seemed
to be antagonizing the professors in class. This
was especially truo in the German and Latin classes
and many great memoriesof thomtinies will .,o with
the students when they leave. There are also many
other memories to carry them throu'.h the years. We
remember such incidents as going swimrninr, in the
icy waters of Barton Springs in Februcry, xnd class
socials down in the wine cellar of Old Seville,
Te distinctly remember the picnic on top of Mt.
Bonnell when -any of our esteemed wcre burned in
effigy. And then, too, Then we stopped the cir-
culation of the ENTEfLRP7IZE on our very first issue
in our Junior year --- and poor Teddy and Larry
meekly saying "But Prof. L Professor Linse read the
dummy "
A:ltho-gh there was much foolishness, the class
didn't participate in this only. They proved that
they could hold their own early by winning four of
the five prizes offered for high scholastic
averar;es in their first year, and have had someone
in there ever since.
