Sept. 24, 1923: I've arrived at college! My first impression was caused
by a flying brick from a building that they are tearing down. Then I melted
and ran along in a long line the remainder of the day. Judging from the rate of
speed of the lines, they don't want us in college any more than we want in.
Sept. 25, 1923: I finally got to the beginning of the line, only to be sent to
another one, with my purse feeling like I do now, for I missed my supper. I
guess I'll have to be more punctual if I stay here.
Sept. 28, 1923: Classes have started. I have a term's work already as-
signed. They must expect us to study all of the time. Everyone scoffs at Fresh-
men and calls us green, slimy fish, but I'm mighty glad I'm one, for to be in style
in this college you had better be a freshman.
Nov. 2, 1923: Fish party tonight! We dressed the barracks in its Sunday
best of purple and white and went there for our first party. The class was well
represented, and we are not only in the largest, but also the peppiest class in
college.
Nov. 20, 1923: The president of our class told us that there was one studio
left down town that the Juniors, Sophs, and Seniors had not visited, and that the
man was willing to risk his camera on us. So we are all going down town and
pose for our pictures to be made for the Yucca. We are not all going at the same
time, however, for even cameras sometimes get too great a shock.Seventy-three
