| The freshman and sophomore Iowa State College
classes engage in a tug-of-war competition on September 20, 1907.
This annual competition was often held on Briley's Pond. If this
photograph is at that location and oriented in a northeasterly direction,
the area where the crowd is standing may be what was to become Hyland Avenue
with the Olson farm seen on the hill. Dean Anson Marston said that
the freshmen won the tug-of-war in 1907. |

| After Briley's pond was filled, the contest
continued, but was relocated to an area just off central campus.
Morrill Hall and the old Dinkey station can be seen in this 1915 photo. |
