Q-fi 'KTXO f J 4555: ,....g1q SEQ? ..V4??ETE4i?o Tforworb 1 You have before you the annual publication of the Class of 1919, the 4'Signuin," the sign of the seal. Each year a Year Book is issued by the Senior Class as a record of its last year in E. F. A, This year it has been the purpose of the editors to present a book which will be a history of the year not only for the Senior Class but also for every person in any way connected with the Academy. In doing this our aim has been distinction. In past years there has been a tendency towards sameness. This year we have changed radically. In pursuing our aim We selected a name for this book which we think represents its full meaning. The first meaning of Signum is "the seal" and we use as representing our school, its seal. The significance of Equality and Excellence add to the reasons why we have chosen this name. So you have the Signum as a record of the Academy for the year 1918-1919. Each member of the staff has done his best to make this book as nearly perfect as possible as a means of adding to the pleasant memories of the Class of 1919 in the years to come. F RELILTY X EEE .

Irva 15 1409121113 up the reputation of her home town "shur nuff' There 1S one greaii mystery about her though, and that is how she keeps so silent and composed. She never seems ruifled orlexcited in the least. Pie?- h 11-'S as one famous Hshai-k" said several years -ago, "I aps, simply keep my mind on my vvork.'l Anyway our best wishes for a successful career go out with Irva. MARIAN LOUISE ARGUS. "Better late than never." We are very glad to have had Marian as a classmate even though she has been with us for only two years. Marian manages to get her lessons and have good times outside in the meantime. Her course in domestic science will prove to some man how ef- ficient she is. We are eonident that Marian will also be a credit to the business world. DOROTHEA ATWATER. f'Moclest and shy as a nun is she." She is so very. quiet that sometimes we don 't know she is around. Nevertheless, Dorothea likes the boys, one in particular, but we promised we wouldnlt tell. We haven 't found out what she intends to do next year but we ar-en't worrying about Dot 's success if she makes as many friends in the future as she has here. GET-TOGETHER PARTY COMMITTEE GERTRUDE B. BARTON "A true friend is one worth having." This little lady even had the audacity to ask our reporter what she is especially noted for. The first thing is thatiheathen- ish yell that startles us out of belief that she never makes any noise. Then, haven 't we a comfortable feeling when we're with her that she is listening to what we are saying, and isn't going to "rake us over the coals?" Her ambitions are of a higher sort than many of ours and point to a college in Ohio. GET-TOGETIIER PARTY COMMITTEE MARIE A. BEARDSLEY "A daughter of the gods, divinely tall and most divinely fair." Marie is another of the girls, who has given much life and enthusiasm to the Senior class. Besides belongine- to gl U1-eat nuinber of things, here at sghool, 5119 is a Ven, ,famous yfmug lady as a memlzer of the ,jazz baud, and Whig of us has not danced to her music? Marie is I1 H110 H311 1-Oumlrv girl amd We are proud that she is a member of the c-lags of 1919, STUDENT COUNCIL SENIJR RECEPTION COMMITTEE LITERARY EDITOR Sigmlm er:- Tgg.....qg get 5 U: if C5 EH 5 2550? 973 A EVELYN YVONNE BEEMAN "I just can 't make my eyes behave." Evelyn is one of the girls that hails from across the river and no doubt that is her excuse for being late so often. Her first thought is to ha.ve a good time and as far as we can see, shc certainly accomplishes it. We hear rumors of her keeping com- pany with the son of one of our well known grocers but we ad- vise you to go to Evelyn for more definite information. ANNA BERNSTEIN "Another person whose good deeds shine as far as the proverbial candle." Anna is another one of our ,good students. She never acts as if her schoolwork troubled her much but when it comes to reci- tations, she's right there. Anna has one great accomplishment and that is her singing. She certainly has a wonderful voice. Her good nature is her chief characteristic and it makes one feel good to be with her. Anna has a twin for, wherever you see her, you see Harriet. We know that Anna will have great success in her future life. CLASS PLAY HARRY VV. BLANK "Give to the world the best that you have And the best will come back to you!! If you see a very energetic young man dashing through the halls, you may be sure that he is Harry Blank. He is certainly one of the Inost industrious young men that we know. As Edi- tor-in-Chief of this book, he has again given us proof of his ef- ficiency. He has taken an active part in everything connected with school life, either in business or pleasure. So We all hate to think what the class of 1919 would have done without him. SENIOR RECEPTION COMMITTEE BRONZE TABLET PARTY COMMITTEE EDIToR-IN-CHIEF S-ignum STRING BAND ORCHESTRA STUDENT COUNCIL KATHERINE G. BLYLEY "A person of business." Just to hear "Kat's" firm, decided footstep as she goes down the hall, one would know her to be a girl on Whom all un- consciously rely. It has been thus ever since she came to thc Academy. Her business ability has made her a necessary factor in almost every enterprise that the class of 1919 has undertaken. She is also genuinely interested in all social events. We all wish her great success in whatever she does. VICE-PRESIDENT or STUDENT COUNCIL VICE-PRESIDENT on SENIOR CLASS VINDEX BOARD TALITHA BOTSFORD " Thy music charms. 7' What would the Senior class have done without Talitha? Our class would not possess such an original and appealing song, if it had not been for her. One can hardly believe that such a lit- tle person could do such big things. Talitha is not only a finc composer but also a. clever little violinist and artist. She is never idle a moment and from her sketches we conclude that her favorite animal is the pony. With all of hcr talents, Ta1itha's future holds a variety of things in store for her.

Just come in Yergil and hear Aileen recite, she will take Your breath away. She always has her lessons and yet has a good time too. She lives out of town and that accounts for her absence at many of our social functions. She is a very good friend and has helped greatly to raise the standard of the class of 1919. LILLIAN BULLOOK "As steady as the Northern Starfl Nothing is too diiiicult for Lillian to do. Did we ever become so entangled in the meshes of an Algebra. or Physics problem that Lillian could not straighten out each difficulty and lead us out safely? She is so willing and cheerful in giving such help that she is sure to succeed as a teacher. It is very evident that Lillian Will also be an excellent housewife as reports of her ability in needlework and the culinary art have proven. MARJIORIE CLARA BURK "Blithe and bonny and gay." Marjorie is quite a shy little girl and so quiet at times that we hardly know she is with us. Her thoughts run in deep channels and her mind is continually grasping valuable and worth-while information. The attentions of a certain young man do not seem to interfere with Mai-jorie's lessons for her standings always hover around the nineties. RING AND PlN'COMMlTTEE Snxron Rncnrfriox OoMM1'r'rEn B ERN ICE M. BUTLER liF1'Olll morning till night lTis Bernice 's delight To chatter and laugh Without ceasing." Bernice is always ainnsed. WVhen you feel tired and cross, her genial good-natnred giggle restores you to your former gay spirits, So you just naturally feel jolly when she is around. So for this and many other good reasons, she is a good friend to everyone and a great addition to the Senior class. 'I HAROLD C. Cl-IAMBERLAIN "A merry heart goes all the way."

We never have, but one thing we know is, that should he crack one it would be worth listening to. One must really know Bernard to appreciate him. In his studies he is an all around man, not fast, but steady, always doing something that counts. As we look into his horo- scope we see him a. prominent man of the future. FORUM HENRY FRIENDLY "Knowledge comes and wisdom lingers." Henry's wisdom so overwhelms the rest of us that we can only sit amazed and speechless. Can any of us ever forget that mem- orable day when Henry was giving a very eloquent exfplanation in Ver-gil? Of course we could hardly be expected to understand some of his more lengthy words but when he had finished, we were even more firmly convinced of our ignorance. Then Miss Tash- jian very cleverly said, ' 'What he means to say is ........ " and she gave us the explanation in language that We could at least understand. But Henry is as true a friend as he is a fine student and he has greatly helped to make this last year a successful one. CLASS SONG .NND Morro COVMMITTEE EDlTOR on XTINDEX DEBATING TEAM STUDENT COUNCIL GERTRUDE E. GEIB "A merry heart doeth good like medicine." No one can be blue when around Gertrude. She is a sure cure for the blues. She always seems to enjoy everything and if you should hear the words "Wasn't that great?" you can be sure it's Gertrude talking. Did you ever see her dance? She seems to understand how to " trip the light fantastic" and besides that, she has many other accomplishments. We know that "Gert" will succeed in the future. STRING BAND FRANCES H. GOLDBERG ' 'Just sweet with human kindness! ' Frances is always so quiet that we don 't know much about her. But we do know one thing and that is that she is a good student. Her recitations are always a joy to the teachers, and her name usually appears on the honor roll. Frances isn't selfish with her knowledge either for she will always help her friends. May she be successful in her future life! AGNETA GRADWELL "What is more rare than a good disposition! " Agneta is a very quiet and studious person. She has a very sweet likeable manner and has made many friends. Agneta never pays much attention to her lessons b-ut yet always manages to get through.

Perhaps we would if we were so thorough as to he able to greet teachers with such a confident smile. Louise's wonderful class and school spirit is exhibited at all games, parades, parties and other school functions. Success to you at college, Louise, and may you continue to he a joy among your classmates and friends. g STUDENT COUNCIL SENIOR RECEPTION COMMITTEE VENNA B.

She inspires every- one that she talks to and her quick witty replies liven the spirits of all. vienna. has a great passion for books-and more books. Her greatest fault is her liking for moving pictures. She has taken such an interest in them that she knows the life history of every prominent "movie'7 star. But do not get the impression that Venna does not believe in work. She is a very energetic young lady.

She is always a good sport, ready for anything that her friends might suggest. She is also said to be very fond of hills, especially around Ithaca. Dorothy is also a noted violinist and a great ad- dition to our school orchestra. ln all, by her modest and unas- suming manner, she Wins her Way into all our hearts. WVALENTINE PARTY COMMITTEE ORCHESTRA ELIZABETH EVANS "Exceedingly wise' is she.'l Elizabeth is one of the mainstays of our class, for she is truly a girl to be relied upon. t'Soher, steadfast, and demui-e" are three adjectives that might Well be applied to this young lady and We would especially emphasize the second, for above all else Eliza- beth is really unchangeable. She is also quite iamous for her fine recitations, especially in Yergil. We wish her great success in Whatever she undertakes. GETATOGETHER PARTY COMMITTEE ELEANOR FISHER EVVING "Time, place and action may with pains be wrought, But genius must be born and never can be taught." Eleanor 's honor marks prove that she not only possesses wisdom but also knowledge. While We are laboriously struggling along with one lesson, Eleanor has mastered three, with apparently no effort Whatever. To convince yourself that she is one of our gifted young artists, please glance at the initials of some of the drawings in this book. Eleanor ls clever ideas and school spirit have made her one of our valuable classmates. BRONZE, TABLET PARTY COMMITTEE Sigaum BOARD SONG AND MOTTO COMMITTEE WALTER- J. FERRIS "Bore not his cheeks the apple 's ruddy glovv'?'l We do mean to make "Walt" vain but everyone admires his rosy cheeks. VValter is one of our E. F. A. farmers and for two years was a member of our farm brigade. This accounts for the above. He never Was a "shark" but he manages to get through just the same. He is a. silent youth who seldom ventures an opinion unasked, but we feel safe in prophesying a very rosy future for him. THELMA FETTER "She is gentle, she is shy But there's mischief in her eye." . Thelma lives in a sphere apart from the rest of us, in a little World of her own. Thus it is rather a hard task to tell what We don't know about her. But certainly no one enjoys a good time more than she. In all, she is a good student and a loyal one, too. ,YE It sf ' 7' 3 yg ,QP rjfysef HELEN LOUISE HOOPER H There is nothing like the wish to scatter joy around us." Every time that you speak to Helen she will greet you with a smile. To hear her talk, one would think that she never eXpe1'-- ieuced ditliculties or trouble of any kind. If you wish to have her become interested in something, start to plan a party. Helen is very fond of them, especially when there are to be "lots of eats." We can 'hardly blame the girl for we admit that we like such things ourselves. IDA S. HORDES 'iKnoWledge is the wing wherewith we iiy to heaven." It seems to us that Ida must believe this motto, for she lives up to it. She is more fortunate than the rest of us mortals, for she finished in January. While here she took up business sub-jects and was very conscientious in her work. We hear now that she is using her knowledge to advantage in business and We are sure that Ida's usccess will be complete. JOHN 'WENDELL HOWARD 'Haltl one, two, Right, dress! Front! At ease! " Wendell has spent much of his brain energy this year drilling the stalwart youths of Company A over the Armory floor. Who would guess from this that he is a parso11's son. Rumors are re- peatedly reaching us that Wendell keeps company with a charm- ing young lady in both the lower and upper halls. This is rather a surprise to us but it is only one of many. In later life Wendell intends, so he says, to become a forester or soldier, at either of which we are sure he will be successful. 'VINDEX 'BOARD CAROLYN J. HOWE 'AA sweet, attractive kind of grace." Carolyn believes in "packing all her troubles in an old kit bag and smiling." Although very quiet, she is always busy and doing things worth while. She is very much interested in church work and we have heard that she has a kindergarten class We can picture her conducting a kindergarten and we do not doubt out that all of her pupils will love her and bc attracted to her just as we have been. Signum BOARD CHARLES ANTHONY HUGHES p "An Originator of fun." Charles is another of the young men who has helped to make the Senior Class the fun-loving one that it is. His impcrsonations of that well known character "Charlie Chaplin" are quite mar. velous and for that reason are known far and wide. He is also noted a great debatcr and we believe that he would have Q very successful career as a lawyer. He is excellent in working on party committees and his help has been sought very often, VVC all wish you great success, Charles, in whatever you undertake.

He not only has spent hours searchs ing for jokes for the Vindex and Year Book but he also has origi- nated some. His wit and humor help to make him a model toast- master and entertainer.

A., some of us to begin life 's battle, and others to go on to higher institutions of learning. We have successfully passed over all obstacles placed in our way, and we have ac- complished our tasks. In the glow of graduation and peering into the future some of us, perhaps, forget the life in E. F. A. for the past four years. Let us pause for a moment in our mad, twentieth century rush and review our carrers in the Academy. Freshman! How we dreaded the name as we timidly entered the Academy for the iirst time on that fateful Tuesday in 1915! How many mistakes did we make in those first few days? How we were laughed at by the upper-classmen! Yet we managed to exist and as we began to get acquainted with teachers, Alge- bra, and each other, we were soon enjoying ourselves. Shortly we attended our irst mass meeting and nominated our officers. We began in politics. George Diven was elected presidentg Esther Lois Shoemaker, secretary, John Lynch, treasurer. We June Regents' with nothing in particular happening. urged to subscribe to wonderful papers, and to go out to receive instructions Booth, vice-president, drifted along towards We were frequently for games which men played and whi-eh, they said we would have to play some day. But we wisely stuck to our studies and under the safe guidance of Miss Calkins we had a picnic late in June before we tackled our grim semi-annual visitor. Sophoinores! And new we had our turn to tease those green children! We held our election early and elected Mortimer Sullivan president, Marion VVest, vice-president, K. Blyley, secretary, George Diven, treasurerg Miss Hopkins, patron saint. Between our work, and our activities into which some of the more venturesome now began to enter, we thought we were very busy but we managed fee? r ,s ax f l : 5 if' ,H 731205 to hold a party which was very successful. NVe were now accepted into that very powerful body of upper-classmen and we began to feel much taller and more potent as we gripped with the Giant. Juniors! Our assumed dignity almost overburdened us but we managed to keep up-right and managed with great eiitort to get our hats on. Under the cap- able guidance of Edward Young, president: Susan Holleran, vice-president, Marie Beardsley, secretary, Carlton Stanehtleld, treasurer, and Miss Quinlan, patron saint, we early began to assume our inherent duties. We even began to ehum around with SENIORS! We held a. big Junior party with a vaudeville show in the fall, which was quite an undertaking. We planned and Worked and studied, besides having a little fun now and then. We were ,right "in the swim." To crown our successful career we held a. party in May and then-on to meet our Destiny, the Regents! Seniors! Wonderful, hoped-for name! Title of dignity! How many of us looked any different from what we did as Juniors? Yet we thought we did, as the burdens of our elass and school fell upon us. Under our capable oflicers we soon entered upon our tasks, the Vindex, parties, committees, the Signuin. And now we are at the end. Our memories of fair E. F. A. are many and fond. Our friendships are dear. And so, in our busy rush, let us not forget our motto, "He profits most who serves best,'7 and strive to keep on as we have begun. ..,,-t- - A -2.-p .

The hall was decorated with the class colors includ- ing the class banners and a few American flags. For the feature dance, a large American flag was suspended by the four corners in the middle of the hall. The flag was Hlled with baloons and at a given time these were allowed to float down upon the dancers. The refreshments consisted of punch and wafers. During the intermission the Fidelman sisters gave a delightful little dance. The following committees were responsible for the success of the party: Ticket Committee-Chauncey VVright, Rogers Churchill.

The room was decorated with red crepe paper, and the lights being cov- cred with it, giving the room a soft glow. Along two sides of the room were small white-covered tables each bearing a vase of red carnations. After the ice cream and cake was served, "Reverend Rogers Churchill, D.D.," gave a very interesting sermon. Then Herman Leupelt and Charles Hughes ,alias Charles Chaplin, gave a very amusing dialogue. The remainder of thc evening was spent in dancing.

P 'EEEEA The Seniors produced a great play this year which everyone enjoyed. Con- ! .,.. bfrxief trary to the usual custom the play was not of ancient times but strictly modern. The story has to do with the present war. The place is an inn on the coast ol' England, the time, September 1914. It concerns the edorts of an English secret service man, Brent, to discover the German spies in this English inn, owned by Mrs. Sanderson. Brent suspects the Sandersons but needs proof. He is aided in his Work by Miriam Leigh, a widow. Brent ls love for Molly, and the quarrels between Miss Myrtle and Preston help the action along, while secret wireless stations, tires. guns, revolver tights, etc., furnish plenty of thrills. Innis Lyon, as the English secret service man, Christopher Brent, masque- rading as a dude, did well. He showed talent. Dorothy Todd as Molly Preston, Who, in love with Brent, 'has her patience sorely tried by his secret Work with Miriam Leigh, was the typical English girl. Alice Grinnell as Miriam Leigh, was the star. Her impersonation of the part of the sympathetic widow required talent, and Alice was "there'l every time. Edgar Tillman was a typical Englishman. Blustering, nervous, and easily excitable, he played Mr. Preston, Molly's father, to perfection. At the hotel there is also an old maid, Miss Myrtle, a "maiden lady" Who will never again see forty. She is the typical boarding-house "old maidn and she has set her cap for Preston. Venna Decker was Miss Myrtle and was the hit of the play. She was a scream. The difficult German parts required exceptional acting and each member of the German cast was excellent. Irving Hall played the villain, Carl Sanderson, as modern villains should be done. In the first part he was the suave, pleasing Englislnnan, but he quickly changed in the last to his real character. Helen Flynn as Fraulein Schroeder, the pseudo English governess, was very good. Edward Young made a great butler, his talent surprising everyone. His Ger- man dialect Was perfect. Mortimer Sullivan as the English recruit Pennicuick, Anna Bernstein as Mrs. Sanderson, and Alice Price as Daphne Kidlington, took their minor parts Well and deserve much credit. Daniel O'Nei1l had but a line in the last act but he took his part Well and he comes in for his share with the rest. The scenery was exceptionally appropriate and the properties very fitting indeed. Lawrence Fitch was the stage-manager and he surely was the man for the job. He showed that he knew how to make things perfect. Cornelius Sulli- van Was the business manager and he is responsible for the financial success. The greatest credit for the success of the play, however, goes to Mrs. Doyle, who so very capably coached the cast.

NVith mem- bers representing all activities and all interests of the school, the Council is a direct medium for helping E. F. A. in many Ways. The Council this year undertook the task of raising money to buy a bronze tablet upon which will be inscribed the names of our heroic dead. Katherine Blyley is chairman of this committee and she has accomplished a wonderful work as nearly 39200 has been raised already. Before school closes in June the entire sum will be at hand to pay for this fine tribute to the memory of the Academy boys who died in the service. Another committee was the Thrift Stamp committee. Mr. Parker after Regents gave the management of the Thrift Stamp campaign in the Academy to the Student Council. This campaign was continued till the middle of April when the Home Room Representative plan went into effect. Altogether the Student Council Committees sold many dollars worth of Thrift Stamps. The officers of the Council are, Arthur McMahon, presidentg Katherine Bly- ley, vice-presidentg Marie Beardsley, secretaryg Mortimer Sullivan, treasurerg Margaret Beardsley, Vindex editor.

Henry Friendly showed much skill and insight into school conditions by his excellent editorials, which were looked for from issue to issue by all the students. He was assisted in his work by Madeline Eoak and Harry l-Blank, whose serial story, 'The Secret VVay," was very thrilling and created a senastion throughout the school as it ran from December to May. The Literary Editors also supplied much material for the Vindex. Alice Grinnell wrote several excellent short stories, Edward Young was responsible for some clever essays, while the following wrote short articles of importance: Elizabeth Epstein, Dorothy Matthews, Esther Leonard, Ethel Maclnerney, Arthur Keeffe. VVhen lnnis Lyons returned to school in February he assumed the editorship of the Bungle which has been a source of much en- joyment to the students. The Class Notes were capably handled by Katherine Blyley and Naomi Davis, the jokes, always a source of much laughter, by Rogers Churchill and VValter V ieweg, Athletics, Mortimer Sullivan, Forum, James Deegan, Exchange, Susan Holleran, Orchestra, Dorothy Hays, Student Council, Margaret Beards- ley. Alfred Zimdahl was assisted by Cornelius Sullivan and Anthony Delario. The ads were solicited by Williaiil Lutz. Chauncey W1'Tg'l1t and Wenclell Howard acted as circulation managers, while Everett Howes and Booth Crise, George Merrill and Donald Thomas cared for the interests of the Sophomore and Fresh- man classes respectively. Mrs. Doyle acted as Literary Critic and adviser, Miss Youmans furnished some excellent new covers from her classes, and Mr. Neuwirth assisted the business managers. The two big numbers of the year were the Girls? Number, issued in April, and the big May issue of '52 pages which was quite a novelty. The Girls' Num- ber especially showed that the girls can do things as well as the boys even in get- ting ads as the girls with Katherine Blyley as business manager almost doubled the usual amount of advertising. So the V index has passed through another successful year, which we know will be a stimulus to greater efforts in the years to -come. NLE- ' ,,g3,,u.AgO EE' 11:5 pf 1 gp 4?3,w..5fI Qi?

FORUM 'STKE 330 E15 5 I E N V M 3 Ik 76,5 Ebe Tforum E The past year has been an unusually successful. - one for the Forum Debating Club. The member- ship was very large, and the membeis were most enthusiastic in their work. The Forum aims to "a V l '55 ' develop good speakers by holding debates on im- ,41 portant questions of the day. A debate is held each week of the school year, and the discussion on any question is open to every member present. The manner of holding the debates is also invaluable training to any person. This is as follows: Each member on entering the club is assigned to some particular state, as a senator from that state, he MISS JANE M- BIRCHARD may brng up bills, discuss motions and vote on them exactly as is done in the Senate of the United States. Thus every member is not only trained to speak in public, but also receives at good knowledge of parliamentary law. Debates, however, were not the only affairs held during the year. The mem- bers found time on two occasions to enjoy themselves. This enjoyment was in the nature of dancing parties which were held at the Federation. Both events were well attended and all enjoyed themselves immensely. Last year the members decided not to hold the annual Forum banquet. The money that would have been spent in this way was given over to the Red Cross. This year, the members voted to hold the banquet. This will be held at the end of the school year. The success of the club, this year, is largely due to the untiring efforts of Miss Birchard, the faculty adviser, who so willingly took up the work formerly carried on by Mr. Hill. Also we must not forget that credit is due the officers of the club for their work during this term. These officers were: Daniel O'Neill, president, XVilliam Lutz, vice-president, NValter Tieweg, treasurer 5 George Connelly, recording secretary, Vtfilliam McCarthy, corresponding secretary 5 Cornelius Sullivan, sergeant at arms, James Deegan, Forum editor.

TDebaling Beam The Debating Team was chosen during March and was composed of the following: Henry Friendly, leader, lnnis Lyon, Arthur Keeffe and Raymond Howes, alternate. Miss Birchard, the faculty adviser of the Forum, acted as coach . The question submitted to Binghamton was, Resolved: That the estab- lishment of a League of Nations as defined by the covenant of February 14, 1919, would be for the best interests of the United States. On this question our team supported the affirmative. The debate was held on May 16, in Binghamton. The team this year was quite remarkable, as all but the leader, Henry Friendly, had never before been in a formal debate. Henry Friendly was a member of last year 's team which debated the railroad question with Binghamton in Elmira. The Amherst prize cup offered as a permanent gift to the winner of three suc- cessive debates was in the possession of Elmira this year, and because of the wonderful fight that our boys put up we shall have the cup again next year. It is the first time in the ten years of Elmira-Binghamton debates that a team Won away from home. The team deserves great credit. E. ,fg.

"Billl' Hoffman was captain, and 'fRed" Tillman, manager 5 and they both had much to do with making the season such a success. The largest share of the credit goes to Frank Ross, the efficient coach and staunch supporter of E. F. A, football.

It is true that they lost more games than the football squad but they also won more and made up for every game lost by beating the team that had defeated them by a larger score than it had secured against E. F. A. There have been many claims for the Championship of the Southern Tier but when Elimrafs is considered the others must take second place. Coach Harry Shepherd was one of the main factors in making the E. F. A. basketball machine a success.
