16 ACORN Freshman Quibbles Our news is not all bad this time. We defeated the Sophomores in the Sophomore-Freshman debate, and now have the opportunity of meeting the Juniors to decide the ownership of the cup. We have also discovered that our athletic manager is not dead, but was only taking a nap after the basket-ball season. We are now going to have a track team. The Freshmen don't pretend to be athletes, but we will try to give the other classes a close race. Class Poem. We Freshmen only want to know What you will do when we all go. You may heap scorn upon our head; But you'll be sorry when we're dead. The German Club Der Weber Deutsches Klub has been fully organized and an evening of enjoyment has been spent under the direction of the club officers. About forty members met one Wednesday evening in the domestic art rooms of the Academy and listened to a short German program that had been prepared. Immediately following the program, the crowd repaired to the dance hall, where, between intervals of dancing, a delicious German supper was served by the officers.
