But the spirit of the school then was not the A. and M. spirit. It was not until after Chirst- mas, when the S. A. T. C. men were discharged, that the college life took up its usual course. Even then the disruption caused by the war was so far-reaching in its influence that, for a time, it seemed as if the old pep would never come back. What every the fish considered a very unwise ac tion was carried out by quartering the Sophomores in Goodwin and Bizzell. We knew then, as we know now, that the Sophomore class has more to do with the building up of the charac teristic A. and M. spirit than any other class. However, the Junior Banquet came and, breaking all the restrictions, both Sophomores and Fish cut loose with the old pep. The Fish were especially annoying with their flags and slides at the picture show and terrible were the threats hurled at us. But it proved to be the awakening of A. and M., and from then on the old spirit gradually came back. Last fall we entered as Sophomores and within a month had gathered a reputation of the hardest hitting class in years. But we were deter mined to make our part go—and we did. The wonderful year we have had in athletics has found its sequence in the best college spirit that has been here in years. The fish have enough pep to made working on them inter esting. The whole atmosphere of the place is progressive. And we claim a large part in making it so. As a class this year we have shown, we believe, remarkable unity of purpose and action. The men who directed the fight against the Juniors know that the energy and loyalty and de pendability of the Sophomores as in dividuals wer the best in the world. We do not take to ourselves pride, but we feel that the spirit and ability and power of the Sophomore class, as a whole and individually, can not be beaten. It is for us to hold it and increase it in the two years before us, when we shall assumed places of responsibility in the College. ’22 ARE YOU ONE OF THE SIXTY PER CENT Historical: 1.
