Last week we received our invita-
ton to the annual Junior Reception,
/ in honor of the Senior class. We
never thought much about it until
Monday evening, but we have thought
considerably about it since. 1t was
one, If not the, most enjoyable occas-
/ ions in our whole school life. When
we entered the high school building
almost the first thing that met our
view was the word "Welcome. 4" Then
we thought of the spirit it must take
to prompt such feelings on the part of
a class. On the blackboard in the
] laboratory was printed in large let
tiers, our motto, Crescent today, full
I orbed tomorrow" 1t has been the
first time, to our knowledge, that any
| other class has written the Senior
motto. Juniors, we were entertained
right royalty, and the Juniors of next
year will have to hustle to entertain
you as royalty. The entertainment
was well executed from beginning to
end.
OF course, a. is BETTING Juniors
and Seniors, we had plenty to eat and
drink. The old laboratory was trans
/ formed. After refreshments toasts
were in order. Mr.. Bergen and the
three assistant teachers replied, but l
don't dare mention the efforts of the
rest of us, 1t is probably the last time
that we shall meet as class but it was
one that will be long remembered by
every Senior, without exception.
| Sophomores and Freshmen, you
will have Senior class next year
that will be one to be looked up to-
If we haven't. they WILL set you a
good example. Sophomores, we, the
Seniors of 1902, depend upon you to
repay the Juniors for what they have
done for us, but we hope that you
won't have to do it in the same build
1 ing. Though we leave you, don't for
get that we still have an interest in
you. Juniors, kindly accept from the
Senior class of 1902, individually and
collectively, their heartfelt thanks.
ON Saturday last the base ball team
met vhe Platteville state normal team
on the fair grounds and defeated them
by score of Il to t. The game was
a hot one, from start to finish, the
pitching being Ovits VS. Ovitz. Ernest
Ovitz showed his big cousin John that
height and might are not always iden-
tical. At the end Of the first inning
the score was , to |, in favor of the
nOrmalS; but N the third our boys
nlade it i TO Ia favor OF the home
team. Platteville seemed to grow
gradually weaker, and our boys trot-
ted around the diamond for eight
more scores before the end of the
game. The Normal beat us in foot
ball, but they found our base ball
team an entirely different proposition.
Oyitz showed thirteen of them that he
could pitch curve once in awhile;
but the other Oyitz could do little of
the same thing. The visitors ex-
pressed fair and square deal; but
they did not express desire to play
base ball in our yard any more.
