done for the last two years since we started on the right track. Somehow before
that we got side-tracked and to avoid a collision we were forced to see our upper
classmen thunder past on the inside track, while we stopped at “Overbrook, Ardmore,
Bryn Mawr and all way stations.” But for the last two years we have had that inside
track, and have in our turn dashed past, waving our hands to the locals.
Track is essentially a class sport. That may sound like a very peculiar statement,
but I venture to assert that more of the class has been more earnestly and more often
urged to participate in it than in any other of our numerous pastimes. And the class
always participated in one body. In fact, the unity of the class on nights of track practice
was remarkable. In most events, as one woman 1911 came to the gym to practise, and
as one woman carried off all the honours in the meets.
