We have not satisfied our own ambitionsg perhaps we have fallen far short of the expectations of others,' but we have done our best. We have compiled this book with a three-fold purpose in mind .' To give an accurate and interesting record of this school year that our book may give pleasure today, and that in future years it may bring memories of the past, revivifying friendships and activities of days gone by,' To portray the student life and activities of the college to students, faculty, alumni and friends of Geneva, that they may one and all take an increased interest in her welfare, and ever aid her on her upward way, To foster an appreciation for the spirit of our Alma Mater-democratic, scholarly, progressive, vigorous,--- the spirit that lives with ever-increasing vitality. With these objects in view we have given you 'l'Hli GENEVAN. ' We will be profoundly gratefulifor its cordial reception. ltll llllllll llIllIlIIIIllWIIIlllIIIIllIlIlIIIlPIIIWIllIIlIIllNIIllllIllIIIIlllllllllllllllllllllll llllIIIHIIlIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII llllIlllllllllllllllllllllll I Eight f The Genevan ,20 IIlklIIVIHIllIIIIllllIIHlllII1IlllllIIII'VIIIlllIIIIIlllllllIIllllIIllllIIlIIIIIIllIIIIIIlllIIIIIIlllllIlIIVIIIIIlllKllllllIIIllllllIIlllllllIllllIllllllIIIl'IIIIlIIlIIIl!lIIlIIl JVM11 'lilfilding IHlIillllHllIll!lUIHIIIIHIIIIHIIlIINIIIIHINIIKIHIIIIHINIIHIIXIHIIIIUIWIIIIIIIINIIINIIIIHIHIQIIHIINIIIIHIHIINIIIIHIIlIINIIVINIIEIIHIIIIHIIQIWKINIIPIIHIIIIHIII Ninn 9 EihlilllglimglgmmllIllgglllIllllllllllllblllllll IlIIlllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllllllllllllllllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII Illllllllll! !7Wylx'ee Hall Rcsidcmrc lla!! for Wmuvn I1 ll lllll lllll lllllllllll llllllllllllllllllll II ll lllllllllllll Illllllllllllllllllll ll I lllllllllllfllllllllllllllllllll Il IIIIIIIIHIIIIIII lllllllllllllllll ll I 'l'vn l Hlll The Genevan '20 I i 1 IllIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHIIIIIIIllllllllllllllllIllIllllllllllllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllll'IlllllllllllllIllllllllllIIIIlllllllllllllllllllIIlllllllIllllllllllllllllllIlllll l'if'1llia111.

For several years past the war had seriously interfered with the work of the college. The loss in students and members of the Faculty had been heavy. Col- lege standards had been lowered in more ways than one. This year ue are getting back to a pre-war basis. College life is again normal. First of all, several members of our Faculty, who had been given leave of ab- sence to engage in war service, are with us again. New members have been added We now have a Faculty of which we are justly proud-a Faculty which in scholar- ship and teaching ability has never been surpassed, if indeed it has been equalled. in Geneva's history. The efficiency of the members of the Faculty, their co-opera- tion and self-sacrifice have been important factors in making this a banner year. The Board of Trustees recently gave expression to the Faculty's service in a way which I am sure the latter will appreciate. The year is marked by additions to the College curriculm. New courses have been added in History, ficonomics, Physics, Chemistry, Education, French and Spanish. The Board of Trustees recently voted to divide the Department of fidu- cation and Psychology into two separate departments, to add new courses in each. and to place these departments Linder two teachers instead of one as heretofore. A chair of linglish Bible has been established. The Extension Department-a department in which College subjects are taught in evening classes by members ol the College Faculty-has grown this year beyond the growth ol any former year. ln the number of our students also this is our best year. Geneva has always placed the chief emphasis upon the School of Liberal Arts. The attendance in this school for this year is 280. Last year, including the 95 men in the S. A. T. C, it was 246. ln the last four years, it has increased from 152 to 280-an increase of 84 per cent. ln all departments-in the School of Liberal Arts, Music, Public Speaking and the Normal School---the attendance this year is 5-fo. We are fortu- nate not 'only in the number of our students, but also in the character of our student body. lt is our banner year in the number of students in our graduating class. The thirty-six Seniors who will be graduated this year will be worthy representa- tives of Geneva in the great world of affairs. Their capabilities and College spirit are attested by this Annual which has been prepared and published by them. lt has been a favorable year in the extra curriculum activities. The annual contest between the Literary Societies has been revived, stimulating literary work as carried on by these Societies. ln lnter-Collegiate Debate, Geneva won in three contests by the unanimous decision of the judges, and lost in the fourth by a majority decision. In athletic contests also the year has been very successful. We have won the majority of our Foot-ball and Basket-ball games even though most of the opposing teams were from schools much larger than ours. Yale and Prince- ton were on our Basket-ball schedule. The religious element in Education has always been emphasized at Geneva. We believe that The Soul of Education is the Education of the Soul. ln view of llllllllllllllllIIllllllllllllllIIIIIIllflllllllllllllllllIlIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllllllllllIIllllllllllllllIllllIllIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIlllllllfllllllllllllIlll Twenty-seven The Genevan '20 lIIllIIllIlIlllllllIIlllllllIIllIIllllIIlIlllIlIIIllllIlllIIIIIIlllIllllIllllllllIIIIllllllfllIllllIlllIllllIlllIllllllllIIllllllllIllIlIIllIllllIlIIIllllIIIlllllllllllllllllllllll the Forward Movement in the Churches and the great need of college trained men and women to carry out the enlarged program of the Churches, more than usual emphasis has been placed upon the religious this year. After a week's preparation, a series of special religious services were held. A number of vesper services have been held on Sabbath afternoons. Frequently outside speakers have been brought in to present the claims of Christ and the Church upon the life and service of our students. That these efforts have not been without effect is evidenced by the fact that many of our students have signed life service cards, dedicating themselves wholly to the Master and promising definitely to seek to discover llis will concern- ing their career, and having discovered it, to carry it out. At one time it may have been true that Mark Hopkins on one end of a log and a student on the other made a college. That time, however, is past. Physical equipment is no longer unimportant. Geneva has made great advancement along this line in the past ten years. This year progress has been made. The removal of the library from cramped quarters to the two large rooms formerly occupied by the Christian Associations, where there are ample accommodations for books and magazines, for reading and study, has materially increased our facilities for good work. The addition of over 3000 volumes to the library within the year is worthy of note. A new wireless instrument has been installed in the Science Hall. A dor- mitory annex has been purchased. An agreement has been entered into by which the late j. L. McCartney property, adjoining the Geneva campus on the north, will become the property of the college The McCartney house has been moved to provide a suitable location for the new dormitory for young women. This dormi- tory, to be known as McKee Hall in honor of Mrs. M. E. McKee ol' Clarinda, Iowa, whose generous gift made it possible, will be a fine three-story stone struc- ture with accommodations for eighty-five young women. lt is now in process of erection. The body of the College has been well looked after in recent years. lt is now time to make adequate provision for her soul. ln the near future it will be neces- sary to add several members to her present teaching staff. To secure and main- tain a liaculty, sufficient in number and unexcelled in efficiency, will mean more for Geneva's progress in the immediate future than anything else that can be done for her. ln the next few years the endowment must be doubled if not trebled. Something has been added to it this year, but our hope is that plans already under way for increasing the endowment will result in adding to it many times the amount added this year. No resume of the College year would be complete without a reference to the loss sustained within the year. l'n one of his books, Newell Dwight Hillis says that the character of Washington is worth more to the United States than all its territory lying west of the Mississippi. Geneva's greatest asset is not in her build- ings and endowment in money, but in the great and noble men who have moulded her character and held her true to the ideals and purposes for which she was estab- lished. One of these noble men, our beloved President Emeritus, Dr. W. P. john- ston, who for seventeen years was the honored president of the college, left us this year. The candlestick of his life was of beaten gold. He loved Geneva as he loved his-own soul. He gave her the best ol' his life. lrlis sacrificial service has not gone without reward. Today hundreds who have come under the moulding influence of his personality, teaching and friendship, rise up and call him blessed. Though dead he still lives in the lives of those whom he has inspired to better things. lt is fitting that this Annual should be dedicated to him. May Geneva ever keep his memory green! lllllllllllllllllllllllllIlllllllllllllllllllllllIIIlllllllllllllIlllIIlIIlllIllIlllllllllllllllllflllllllIllllllllllIlllllllllllllllIlllllllllllllllllllllllIllllllllllllllllllllll , , Twenty-eiglit The Genevan '20 IlllllilltlltllIlllIIVIllillllIlllVltllltllllIIIIIIVIIltllllIllllltllltllllIlllIltlIllllllIlllIllllllltlllililllllllllll llill VIillItliIIllllIlIIllllilIIIliIllllilllilllllllllltll ROBERT CLARK, A.M., BD.

Naturally diffident, we found that registra- tion and meeting those first classes had horrors of their own. Rumors of Miss lVlacDowell's linglish classes and Dr. Colwell's math classes did not add to our peace of mind. At the Thousand Mile Walk-there one learned that all men are mor- tal, even professors-there one learned the willingness of the Y. M. and the Y. W. to serve-there one found that it was good policy to ask if those met were Seniors- and there one had to devise a method of eating ice cream without a spoon. Soon green placards appeared in various prominent places dictating to Fresh- men-to those who had been so recently Seniors-what they must do. Somewhat appalled by the audacity of the Sophomores we offered but slight resistance, which promptly met with a cool reception at the dorm pump. lt was then that the Class of '20 learned to reverence the power of the Student Senate and of its executive force-the Sophoniores. A Freshman class meeting was called by the President of the student body. lt was an important meeting too, for not only were the officers elected, but plans were made for the Freshman feed. The plan of meeting was arrangd, the date set, and the Sophoniores informed. Darkness fell and stealthy figures crept across the campus. No Sophomore interference was niet. Fate could not deal so kindly in everything--someone stumbled-investigations were postponed until we reached the gym-Ruth Ruhe's broken toe did not add to the enjoyment of the feed. The Sophomores did not improve our lights but all in all the feed was a great success. And the Sophomores feed? The results of that, unsuccessful though they were, haunted us until spring. Those first few Friday nights were divided between the Aletheorian and Adel- phic literary societies. Then came the receptions and the rushing season when all fell victims to one or the other of the societies. Soon the idea of being on the pro- gram lost its terrors and the fun we had during the social hour made every one of tis glad of our decision. Good lungs or the willingness to develope them is one of the unwritten require- ments' for entrance to Geneva College. livery Freshman was willing to root, for our class was well represented on the gridiron. Those who did not play were kept busy with the fence around the athletic field, and the Freshmen girls served sand- wiches to help the work along. ln those days there was a gathering at the gym- nasium every Saturday night to hear about the Geneva game and other games of interest, to discuss our prospects and to have a social hour. lt was this same year that Bethany lost to us, and the victory was celebrated by burning an effigy. A long procession followed the remains from the gym to the athletic field, where after a few words from Sam Steele the funeral pyre, made of what was left of the old fence, was lighted. Then came the basket-ball season with no vacancies on the girls' team, but a class which boasted a player like Martha llunter did not worry. She made her own place and has been holding it ever since. This class also had a representative on the men's team which took the championship of Western Pennsylvania the fol- lowing year.

The annual battle for the protection of our class rights and for the privilege of enjoying a few of the Sophomores rights was held, and resulted in a glorious victory. lt was spring, which always means dates, canoeing, and picnics. April showers did their best to spoil one of the latter which was to be held at Schutte's, but the showers failed to ruin the party, for who can imagine anything more delightful than an indoor picnic in front of a huge open fireplace? This particular springtime was different from all others. Nature did her best to make the world a beautiful place to live in, but across the seas the war cloud overhung Europe, and on April 5, America awoke to the realization that she must do something to bring back Spring to the world. Although we had long been expecting this, it came as a shock, as little by little we realized the cost. lt meant that almost all of the men must leave college to join the army or to produce food for the army that was being mobilized. lt meant checking the exuberance of youth by grave forebodings. lt meant real work for everyone because of the uncer- tainty of the future. The student body rose to the occasion and the Freshmen loyally did their part. The presentation of our beautiful national flag and equally beautiful college banner marks our Freshman year with distinction. The raising of the flag on the new seventy-foot pole reminds us each day of our duty to our country and our college. National colors floated everywhere. Even May Day was turned into a patriotic celebration. Our May Queen was substituted by the Goddess of Liberty, our May pole dancers wound the pole with the red, white and blue, our pageant was the Star Spangled Banner and Columbia, the Gem of the Ocean, and the March of the States was added because of its appropriateness this year. Commencement time in l0l7 was just a little sadder than usual, but triumphing over this was our joy in being admitted to the rank of Sophomore. Little wonder this year that commencement visitors should inquire if this ,were a co.-educational institution, for the men had practically all vanished. The Autumn of 1917 admitted the last year Freshmen to the rank of upper classmen and even invested them with the ofhce of police. The ranks were much depleted and the work of managing such a large class of Freshmen offered many difficulties. lt required careful use of all our man power and led to many heated discussions in our class meetings. One such discussion was in regard to the attitude of a certain Freshman when asked to remove his cap in the hall. The question was whether he had complied with a horse laugh thus subjecting himself to the clippers or had he complied with a benignant smile. Wisdom prompted a decision in favor of the latter consideration, but while we tarried, our younger brother, haunted by a guilty conscience visited Sammy, and saved us from such a shame- ful decision. The Freshmen had a very nice feed that year, and the Sophomores-theirs was quite expensive but no less enjoyable. This class of Sophomores will go down in history as the one class who entertained the entire student body. The gymnas- ium was too small, so some of the guests were entertained on the athletic field and the hosts kept the gym. lulnIlun:ululuInluuuInluunumilnlnnulnlululullulululunuuulinnumIInminijl:mlnallIlulululululululuuulinlull:lululnlululululululu . 'l'l1irty-eiglit The Genevan ,20 lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll This was a busy year at Geneva. Everywhere the clicking of knitting needles was heard, and the halls were deserted for the Red Cross room. As to the men- there were not many-but Coach Bridenbaugh used them well, and made a won- derful record for Geneva in athletics. The Sophomores were represented by four letter men on the foot-ball team and by two men on that champion basket-ball team. That was the year our old friend Westminster was defeated Z3 to 7 in foot- ball, and the never-to-be-forgotten game with Allegheny was staged in Trees gym- nasium, Pittsburgh. lt was a difficult year for the Sophomores, becauses, faced by difficulties, everyone knew the future of the college, the future of the country de- pended on everyone's doing his daily task as well as possible. The food situation led many to suggest discontinuing the customary Sopho- more-Senior banquet. After careful consideration the class decided that the privi- lege of banqueting the Seniors was not to be ignored. Eight of the Seniors were already with the colors. We were justly proud of the privilege of entertaining a class which represented the spirit of service so nobly. April ninth was the date set for the annual combat between Freshmen and Sophomores. This was indeed an exciting event for it seemed that there was to be a break with precedent, and the Sophs were to win. Destiny interfered, at an inopportune moment for us, ami the lireshies were victorious. College opened to the sound of martial music in the Autumn of l0l8. Soldiers roamed about the campus in civilian clothes. Class identity was almost com- pletely lost in the S. A. T. C. This first semester is well dubbed the period of darkness in Geneva's history. Nlen without equipment were supposed to conduct themselves like soldiers. They were subjected to K. P. for trivial offenses, they were kept busy from 7:45 a, ni. to 3:30 p. m. with classes. They were compelled to take Physical Torture from 3:30 to 5:30, and besides having regulation army drill work were expected to study. Literary societies were discontinued and the regular college activities sadly interfered with. Then came the epidemic of influ- enza to add to the darkness of the times, but on November eleventh Dawn cast rays of peace over the campus and all Genevans joined the world in rejoicing. With the close of the S. A. 'I' .C. days, college activities became somewhat nor- mal again. The literary societies resumed their meetings, the receptions were held, and the new members were initiated. The basket-ball and foot-ball teams were entertained several times. Receptions, teas, picnics, and numerous parties made up for the lack of social activities during the first semester. The faculty re- ception was held in the college building. The gold and white were artistically used for decoration and the affair was acclaimed the most elaborate and enjoyable of the season. Another commencement time drew near and a most unusual class was graduated, consisting of a host of girls and only one man, who had returned from the army service in time to be graduated. What was their loss through war conditions has been our gain. This commencement was indeed a happy one, it was a joyous re- turn of the old regime. May Day was again celebrated and Class Day was insti- tuted. The commencement concert was given the night before by the Girls' Glee Club. Class Day proved such a success that it has come to stay with us. Follow- ing the morning exercises a picnic was held on the campus for the students and friends of the Seniors, and in the evening the play 'fYellow jacket was given by the Senior class. Commencement followed the next morning and the Alumni luncheon in the gymnasium closed the year. llllllllllllllllllllIIllllllIlIllllllllllllIlIllllllIlllllIIIIIlllllIlllllllllIllllllIlIIIIIIllIlllllIlIlllllllllIlllllllIllllllllllllllIIlllllllllllllIIllllllllIllllllllllllllllll Tliirf y-nine The Genevan '20 llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIlllllllllllllllllllllllIllllllllIllllllllllllllIllllllllIllllllllllllllllllllllll Many things were changed when we returned to take up our last year's work. We found the inside of the main building had been redecorated and electric lights had come to dispel the dimness of former times. We found a roomy library newly equipped and much more conducive to study than the former crowded one. Uur class had grown from thirteen members to thirty-six. We welcomed all but especi- ally those six men who had left their former classes to serve our country. lt has been a great year for Geneva in foot-ball, especially considering the weather. The men became quite adept in the laundry business. Some have even considered taking up that line of work on completing their college course. Our class has been well represented in the lineup by Captain Smith, Forbes and Schutte. We are not quite willing to forgive l5a'te for depriving us of a representative on the basket-ball team. following Bob liorbes' foot-ball accident. 'lihe Senior class very much appreciates the privilege of selecting a standard ring for all graduating classes and of presenting the dies for them to the college. Certain conditions prompted the Seniors to issue the Annual this year but we do not wish to establish the custom because we feel that the duties of the Seniors are sufllciently numerous and the responsibility would he better assumed by the junior class. We hope, however, that our efforts have not been in vain and that the Geneva year book will be a continuous affair through the coming years. We appreciated the efforts of our athletes but no less did we appreciate the efforts of our classmates who took part in the intellectual contests. We are proud to have furnished four out of eight debaters who were able to win ten out of twelve judges this year, and we are also glad to claim the orator in the 'l'ri-State Oratorical contest. 'lihe versatile genius of our class is 'further shown when Alice draws the bow across the strings, when Bill inspires us with his oratory, and when 'fDisraeli is presented on the stage. A little green shamrock in our memory book will always recall the delightful entertainment accorded us at the homes of Dr. and Mrs. Colwell and Nlr. and Mrs. Clark. Each told a vvee lrish tale but we willingly conceded the first place to Dr. Colwell for telling the cleverest. 'l'he decorations were beautiful and very symbolic of the limerald Isle. Another gay occasion was the party at Dr. lVlartin's. Our college days are over but they are filled with memories which, after we are separated, will often lead us to wish, l2ackzeard, fztru backward, O Tiwze, in fbi' flight, liack in GI31It37Jl1. jus! for tonight.

What can l say that can do justice to such a merry crowd of juniors? Shall I tell you of our hopes, our dreams, our successes and our failures? You would probably tire of such a recital, so l shall tell you only of the main events. Perhaps you would like to know about that morning in September, l0l7, when we first entered Geneva. It was a lovely day with the sun shining brightly down, filling the campus with lights and shadows. About the shaded walks, Lipper class- men stood, laughingly inspecting the new bunch of freshmen. We then entered the college doors, and our new life commenced. After the chapel address, welcoming us to college, each heart was bursting with a desire to do something for Geneva. And l think that we have helped-some have excelled in study, some in athletics, some in literary work. We entered Geneva at the time when our country was calling for soldiers. As we watched the boys go, we were sorry to lose them, yet we were glad that even in the World War the class of l0Zl- had its part. The thrill that comes once in a life time came the night of the Freshmen feed. ln a pouring rain about seventy loyal Freshmen stole up a dark, lonesome path. As we stealthily approached the gym, we heard blood-curdling yells, and a great dark mass fell upon us. Soon the ground was covered with struggling forms while the girls stood near tightly clutching the baskets of Heats. At last we were victor- ious, gained the gym, and ate our hardly-retained luncheon. Our Freshman year passed very quickly. There were receptions and teas, hikes and picnics, lessons to be studied, games to be won. lt was then we discovered that Pat could handle a foot-ball very neatly, and could cage a shot from the middle of the gym. We also discovered that jack Acklin and Don Parsons could be depended on for dow ns, that Foy Curry could sail gracefully to untold heights, with the aid of a pole. We came within one point of licking the Seniors for the inter-class bas- ket-ball championship, but we had too much respect for their dignity to do such a thing, you see. . The next great event was the flag rush. All the rivalry of the year came to its crisis in the rush. l he Sophomores attacked bravely, and for twenty minutes they fought, at times our flag being in danger. lhe battle ended with our colors still floating, however, and our fellows buried the detested green caps. We love to remember the many good times we have had together. We have had two picnics out near Galilee: others at Violet Rock, where by a glowing camp fire we sang our college songs. There have been feeds at the athletic field, once when we ate the cake and ice cream which some thoughtful students of another class provided. ' just as we look back over the three years with pleasure, we look eagerly forward to our Senior year, a little unwillingly too, for it will mean that our college days will soon be at an end. We offer our best wishes to the present Senior class. And as we take up the task, which you are laying down, our hope is that we may accom- plish it as well as you have done. Farewell, Class of l020.

The first few days were spent in getting acquainted with each other and with those upper classmen who were to be our associates dur- ing our sojourn here in search of knowledge. As was customary recitation sched- ules were arranged, but we all wisely vowed not to let our studies interfere with our regular college education. First in the order of social events was our class party. Our dormitory girls were clever enough to outwit the Sophs, and to steal away to Nlorado Park. where we had our feed. A few adventure-seeking Seniors swelled the crowd. Not a few ol' our lads lost their fair locks during the next few days, for the Sophomores were out for revenge. How many of tis can ever forget the class party held in lVlr. Glover's store room in Beaver Falls? We borrowed a victrola, played some games, enjoyed a fine lunch and then came the toasts. Mr. Adams gave us such a fine talk on Arbuckle's Coffee, our president, Mr. Nlerrillees, on The Future of Our Classgn and then Miss Campbell responded with a little talk on Freshmen After the speeches we sang the college song and departed. During the first days of October, l0l8, students came from all parts of our land to enlist in the S. A. T. C. at Geneva. We well remember the first meeting of the company on October eighth in the chapel. Almost ninety boys had signified their intention of joining the organization, and the ranks of our class were swelled by the newcomers. On October l l, the influenza epidemic made itself felt in our midst, and classes did not convene. Not a few of our number spent the next two weeks in bed, and when we came back, old Geneva had been changed. The dormitory dining-hall had become a mess hall, the gymnasium was converted into barrack rooms, the Y. M. and Y. W. rooms into the company office, the male members of our class were sergeants, corporals or lowly privates. 'Twas then that we forgot we were Freshmen and all classes became one. On November eleventh news came of the signing of the armistice, and soon the S. A. T. C. was disbanded. We Freshmen had become much interested in foot-ball, and not a few of our fellows added to the strength of the first and second teams. Besides these, there were the Freshmen on the bleachers who proved to the Lipper classmen that the members of the class of '22 had good lungs. Then came basket-ball season, and Freddy Loeffler and Ren Galbraith from our class helped Geneva on to victory. Spring came before we knew it, and the stage was set for the class fight. The Freshman flag floated from the pole, on the famous plot of ground by the banks of the Beaver. The old bell rang for the hour of start- ing. and the Sophs made the rush. Alas, the ,Sophomore classmen lost the day, and we were victors. On May nineteenth we had the field meet with Allegheny, and on june seventh we met Carnegie Tech Among the Geneva track men were jones, Frazier, Miller, Lathom, Axtell, Boucher and McCracken, all of the Freshman class. Springtime passed all too quickly. Graduation day came, and three of our classmen carried off prizes. On September fifteenth, nineteen hundred and nineteen, we entered Geneva's halls as Sophomores. We organized our class, made rules for the Freshmen, and planned our feed. The feed 'was held at Partington's on College Avenue, and the juniors and Freshmen failed to disturb us. Little of excitement has taken place in our class this year, and today we have arrived at the point where we banquet the Seniors, and usher out another year of our college life as the class of '22, BERNICE lJAR'l'lNG'l'ON, '22, 1 lltliiIulltlitlull:IullIIitlulitllllulnutlillItlt:luIItlnlnInlulltlitlullilItlulliluIitIitlullllulitIlllislnIItlnlrlllllltlulnliilulululllllllululnltllli Seventy-four The Cenevan '20 I1IIllHIHIWIIHIINIIKIHIHIIIINIIIVIINlHIIIIHIWIlHIIKIVIIINIHINIIINIHIIIINIHIWIINIHIININIIIIIIIHI!lVIlHIlNl1llIlllIlVll NIHIHIINIHIIII WIN IWIII ll I I I I FRESHNE 5 2 f I V I I Y y - ' , V ' fl K I 'H 1 I af I I 4' 1 4 . i V 1 I X 2 I ll X E X ' 1 r ffl I 'f I WI vw 'I fl' X U ' 4 F' rim 1 I ' ul J' A 7' , ,I f, , I , .I 1, . , . .1 eEf.lf,,g Lf' -' 4 ' ' 7,1 ,rv 1 X ,. -..--Im-.- If-.,,, ,,,...- f V H- ,,-, ,, ,,,. -., ,... .Y-.-. - Y --in - - ' - fat, . .Y-N4 F ff ff Q l I Il IIIIIIIIIIHIIIII IIIIIIII IIIIIII lll IIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIII IKIIIVII I ll llll Ill lllllll IIIIIV lllll I ll I II I II llllllll IIVIHIIIIIVIHIIIII IVIIIII IIHI N I ntx lx The Class of 1923 alll 091199 UD 0Zg The Genevan '20 llllIllllllllllIllIlllllllIllllllllIIIllIllllllllIlIIIIIIIllIlllllllIllllllllllIllIlllllIlllllIllllIlllllIllIIIIIIllllllllIlIIIIlllllIlIllIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII 0115155 uf 1 9 2 3 -fIHrvsh'111v11 DOEIIICERS CLARENCE DUNCAN LESI.IE XVILLSON MARY NVALLACE CHARI.ES ANDERSON IIOWARD BAIRD ELEANORE BARNES MARGARET BEATTIE FORD BOUCHER RALPH BRUCE MARIE'I'I'A CARSON I-IARRIE'I I'E CALHOON ELLEN CLARK GRACE CLYDE MAR'I'I-IA COIJELAND CHARLES COLE l..l,IClLI.E CUMBERLAND MARGARET CUMMINGS El.lZABE'I'l-I CUNNINGI-IAM PAUL DAUBENSPECK CLARENCE DUNCAN MARGARET DAVIS ALVIN EDGAR LEONARD ELLIO'I I' SARAH EWING FRANCIS FARMER JAMES FASH DONALD FLEMING EARL FORNEY I-lAz-EL FOSTER CLASS ROLI.

Arid to the telling of this tale awakes. The liall of the year l0l0 saw the coming of a new class to old Geneva, the class of '23, The fading months of the old year saw the class, already bound together by the ties of growing friendships, unfolding the abundant promise of a happy future. The early days of our class had' for us a particular pleasure in the business of getting acquainted. The main hall, the library, the campus, the dorm porch, and other secluded places served in promoting our adventures in fi'iendship. The society receptions gave the work a boost, as did the Thousand Mile Walk, although aliases current on every side were slightly confusing. The lireshman feed crowned the process of getting together, and was our first expression of class spirit. Not more than half of the school knew beforehand when the feed was to be, and a smaller number, including many of the Freshmen themselves were rather at sea to know where it was to be held. A goodly propor- tion of us got to the scene of action, although adventure dogged the heels ol' every- one. One would gather that all the Sophomores came from llomewood. We owe the success of our feed to the excellent planning of our committee ap- pointed by Patterson of lllinois, the temporary president. llis government lasted for six weeks, through themore arduous part of the foot-ball season, until the regu- lar election early in November, when Duncan was chosen to be Figure-head and Mary Wallace the Controller of the Purse-Strings. u The green caps and the much contested green ribbons marked the next step of our infant history. The green ribbons produced a great deal of discord among the girls, ending in a battle royal. Reports from the scene of action told of a consid- erable amount of hand-to-hand fighting, and a number of the combatants assumed camouflage for a few days, until peace settled again in our midst. A goodly number of us enlisted in out-door activities, and for the period of the foot-ball season did our bit constructing major earthworks on the foot-ball field. Still later in our academic career we found it necessary to turn our attention to a modest degree of study, but a week or so'of such difficult labor sufiiced to carry us through the perils of exams, and we enjoyed once more the even tenor of our ways. Certain of us are also coming to be great authorities on the doctrines of spiritualism, and the ways ofthe colored Baptist. . The class games found us ready to back our team with all the resources at our command. We won an exciting game from the juniors, 37-35, and also from the Seniors, 35-lo. Owing to the vtay the games were arranged this year, we may claim the championship in collaboration with the juniors and Sophomores. Since then affairs have pursued their quiet way with only occasional flare-ups. Now as our Iiieshman year draws to a close, we look forward to three more years of still greater growth and closer comradeship, and feel ourselves a part of old Geneva. A. M.

The way has been pleasant, it is true. and it is no tnore than fitting for us as we say good-bye to express our appreciation for the joys we have had, for the friends we have gained, and for the knowledge which has been spread out before tts by our teachers. Naturally enough, we wish the years to come to be just as prosperous for Geneva as the years which we have spent within her walls. 'l'he college authorities have tnade great plans for these cotning years, to make Geneva greater and grander than ever. Without the efforts of the students, however, the work of those who direct the school will lose its power, so we express as one parting wish, that the students of Geneva who have yet to finish their course. will spend their days in the college as they would wish to have spent thetn when they come to the hour of parting. 'l'o most people the class of 1020 will pass out from Geneva as the other classes have do 'e but we have a peculiar individuality. Our class is composed ol' but few of those who entered Geneva in the Autumn of lfllfm. Among our number we find several who were upper class- men then, sotne who left the college for a titne for a greater education somewhere in lirance, sotne who stayed away a time for other work, and sotne who have joined us from other schools. With'this composite construction, more accentuated than in most classes at Geneva. we hzyve united to present a solid front to our tasks and toils. We leave Geneva not with the wish to discourse with tnuch warning and admonition to those who are to follow, but with the desire that those who follow will appreciate what a college really means, and what Geneva means land has meant to so many. So on gridiron or floor, track or platform, and then out in the busy world, which ts after all not so very different from school, the Geneva spirit will carry on. lirom the four corners of the Nation we will be watching next year for news from Geneva, and in imagination we will hear the bell ringing, and the students cheering, just as when the members of the class of l02fl were attending classes here, We are thankful for the good which has come to us from our stay in college, and express our appreciation to those who helped us to come here, our parents, who are too often forgot- ten: our teachers, who have been patient with us all along the way: and those who have made it possible for Geneva College to continue its wot'k by supporting it so generously. We cannot take with us more than memories. ami perhaps that jewel which is called college spirit.

'l'wo years ago xx hen the Geneva Cabinet was gradually becoming extinct as a result of the war and other things, the suggestion was made in its parting spasm that the student body as a whole should back a college monthly magazine, and that tfie subscription price for it should be collected with the tuition. We believe now that that is the only way that a college paper will ever be possible at Geneva. At any rate, some settled plan should be adopted in regard to both the collexle annual and any other publications, so that they may have a good financial stand- ing, and speak vt ith official sanction. and be truly representative ol' the student body. With a steadily increasing student body, with continuously improving condi- tions in other lines, and with more material to write about than ever before. it seems logical to suggfest that Geneva should issue a student publication lor its collegiate standing. ' ,A.lZlilll1lIllDhQllIl2lllI Our work in publishing the college annual has been made a pleasure through the help given us by many contributors. 'l'here is such a large number of these who have given us assistance that it would be impossible to acknowledge them in detail. Special thanks are due, however, to Dr. C. C. Arbuthnot for his article ol' appreciation ol' Dr. johnston. and to William Denbart, john Curry and Miss Gladys Porter lor drawings for the art department. ' We thank heartily those who have aided us by taking advertising space in our book, and those'who have subscribed. Our aim in organizing the material for this annual has been to reflect as completely as possible the lile and environment ol' Geneva College, and if we have presented this in its true attractiveness we have ac- complished our purpose. To those ol' the lower classes ol' the college who have worked with us we express our thanks for their zeal and co-operation, which was given with no desire for selfish praise, but with the sole idea of benefitting their alma mater. . And finally we thank those friends of Geneva College, both alumni and other interested readers concerning our work and play. whose interest was our inspiration. whose tastes we tried to please, knowing that they would view these pages which we have compiled through our unskillful toil.

MARTIN These are times when one day is as a ' - thousand years and one year is as an epoch: with such startling rapidity has the old order changed and all things be- come new. But yesterday Russia was the domain of mediaeval despot. To- day her tyrants lie in unknown and un- honorecl graves. The mighty war ma- chine of Germany was a century in the making. Today its proud lords are cowering in exile. Presidents now rule where, for ages preceding, the haughty .scepter of the llapsburgs held dominion. Peoples and races everywhere, whose I lives through all history have been made l bitter with hard bondage, are now revel- T ling in their new found freedom, dazzled with their new opportunities. But their revelry of freedom has become the drunkenness of anarchy and the bright- ness of their new vision has made them blind followers of selfish ambition. Those who through defeat gained free- dom from tyranny have become the enemies of all forms of government. Those who through victory have warded off the threatening danger, are now hag- gling over the spoils. Whether victor or vanquished, everywhere selhshness, un- rest, anarchy. Nor has America escaped this mighty breaking up of the fountains of the great deep. The very foundations of our social and national life have been burst asunder. We have been made rudely aware that there are thousands dwelling among us who are not of us, who sought the blessings of liberty but hated the spirit thereof. The laborer's voice has become articulate and he now dictates to his erstwhile oppressive employer, The ancient shrines of school and church at which our forefathers worshipped and for which they cared with such earnest devotion has fallen into neglect. The American dollar has become the center of our own life and sovereign in the world's exchange. For long we had imagined our peace loving land free from the entangling alliances of Europe. But in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, we were changed from a tranquil land with a maritime force of compara- tive insignilicance into a naval power which threatens the supremacy of the mistress of the seasg we were changed from an army of a few thousand to an armed camp of four million trained warriors. After a policy of isolation, sacredly adhered to for generations as the most fundamental of our national ideals, we transported two millions of men across two thousand miles of sea to join hands in common cause with those very nations whose entangling alliances we had formerly so greatly feared. We became the very center of the world's life, the hope and ideal of its future. 1 lllllllllllllllIIIlllllllIIIlllllIIIllllllIIllllIlllllIIIIIIIllllIlIlIIlllIIIlIllIIllIllllllllIIIIIllIlllIllIlllllllIlllIllIIIllllIIIIlllllIlIllllIIlllllllIIlllllllllllllllllllllll , l'Qiglity-four l The Genevan '20 lllllIIllIllIllllllllllIllllllIllllllllllIlllllllllllllllllllIllIIlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIllllllllllllIlllllllIlllllllllllllllllllllllIlllllllllllllllllllllllllll With what wisdom and dignity will America meet this new situation? A century and a quarter have elapsed since this nation's birth. ln those years its growth has been without' parallel but its youth has never been lost. Absorbed by provincial problems. disturbed only by growing pains, moved in turn by youthful generosity or by fleeting selfishness, America had failed to notice the extent and power of its great growth and to realize its mighty strength and its new position in the world. But rudely awakened hy the sudden shock of the World War it was aroused to a consciousness of its full manhood. Now gigantic problems assail. Now old standards and ideals are inadequate. Now more critical examination of fundamental principles must be made. Now is the time for us, citizens of America, to cast out from our country everything that would hinder or destroy, to weigh carefully every force that would seek to control our national life, and with discretion and with dignity to choose such a stand- ard of life and action as shall be the hope and ideal of all peoples. We entered into the World War with the very noblest and holiest ideals of self-sacrifice and service to human kind. We have emerged from that war only to have its backwash overwhelm us with the debris of selfishness and unrest. Indeed the very conditions of the war, the shortage of man power, the greatly increased demand for manifold commodities, opened the way for the most fiendish exploitation of the people and their government. Eighteen thousand capitalists have joined the ranks of the millionaires. Ten million laborers have carried to equal extremes their eflorts at extorting every increased wage a wild imagina- tion can picture. Provincial self-interest and a selfish nationalism have seized hold of the minds of our nation's legislators. They counsel universal military training and a huge navy to ward off the hostile attacks of foreign countries, jealous of our prosperity. They urge an immense merchant marine to guarantee to us a major share of the world's commerce. They advise that we avoid taking upon ourselves any of the obligations which the ransomed backward peoples bring to the stronger peoples of the earth. ,They idealize that splendidly selfish isolation which was ours before. Truly liphriam has returned to his idols as the dog to his vomit and the sow to her wallowing in the mire. lt is all one and the self same spirit, the spirit of self aggrandizement, of bloody anarchy. of shallow atheism. lt was that spirit that brought on the World War. lt was that spirit that caused the war to be carried on with such barbaric ruthlessness and heartless cruelty. lt is that spirit which still keeps the world in turmoil. lt is that spirit that robbed the dead on the battle-field and the living in the factories and the homes. lts weapons are darkness, the secret caucus, the dagger and the bomb. lts followers are those who believe neither in govermnent nor in God: however much their lips may praise llim their hearts are far from llim, for under pretense of granting succor and providing protection they would rend all hope from the broken-hearted and steal the soothing pillow from the dying. Would it not be better to emulate openly those grosser jacobins of the Commune of Paris who, in establishing the New Order after the Great Revolution, flung the dust of their kings into a ditch, violated the tombs of Saint-Denis, obliterated the Sabbath, declared as the oflicial cult an aetheistic worship, and crowning a shameless actress as the Goddess of Reason marched in red Liberty caps to the violation of the Cathedral of Notre Dame? But if these great forces which today are actuating men's hearts and seeking to control the destiny of our nation will but lead us to doom and disaster where shall we look for de- liverance? ln this hour of hopelessness and despair, of unrest and turmoil, it is indeed fitting that we look earnestly at the nobler moments in our country's history and take sincerely to heart the lessons they teach. Before Columbus and his brave followers embarked on their ,perilous voyage on the Santa Maria, the Nina and the Pinta, they knelt and partook of the lloly Sacrament: and when they first caught a glimpse of the New World, there arose from every deck that inspiring, holy song, Gloria in lixcelsisf' The lluguenots in Carolina. the llolland refugees in New York, ami the Pilgrim fathers in New lingland, with holy devotion and fervent prayer took possession of the land in the name of the Mighty Ruler of the Universe.

At our nation's birth we hear yonder in the first truly American Congress in Carpenter's llall the reading of that heaven-inspired song- Plead my cause, O l.ord, with them that strive against me: fight against them that perse- cute me -and the chaplain, contrary to all accustomed forms of supplication, breaks forth in an extemporaneous prayer for deliverance, in the fervor and Christian faith of which the whole Congress as a body united. Nor was that prayer unheard. At the darkest hour of our struggle for independence, when disease and desertion and treason had almost consumed his army, we catch a glimpse of the noble Washington at Valley Forge, calm and assured he-cause of his faith in the righteousness of his country's cause and in the justice of lleaven. At the hour when our country was rent with civil strife both government and people put up a united cry to God of Nations for help in time of need. lle heard and saved. Those in bondage were set free and this nation again united to serve as a chosen vessel to carry the message of liberty, law, and justice to all peoples. ln its bitter moments it has showed itself a vessel made unto honour. Cuba, China, the Phillipines, the oppressed peoples and threatened democracies of liurope and Asia all bear witness to the high principles and noble spirit of America at her hest. lt was at such moments as these that the spirit of those that gave her birth and ol' those who fostered her so zealously during her growth as a nation became the dominating spirit of her life and action. lt is because of moments such as these that the nations of the world look to us as an example and conhde in us as a protector. lt is in such moments as these that we are to find the earnest of our own and of the world's deliver- ance, Ours then it' is to cast out the spirit of the self-seeker, the anarchist, the atheist and to accept that of the Prince of the Kings of the earth to make room for whose sway all kings are falling. Ile was the God of,the lluguenots and the Pilgrim fathers, the God of wars that has brought us safely through so many storms and the God of peace that has blessed our land with the bounties of the store of his great riches. llis spirit would dispel anarchy and infidelity and set up the brotherhood of man. The acceptance of his spirit would mean that we must lay the foundations of our social, industrial and political life on the great religious principles lle taught and that we must bring that life into the closest relation, not with any established church or creed, but with the broad, non-ecclesiastical fundamental truths of llis religion-l.ove, Service, Brotherhood. And Oh, what a blessing the acceptance of such a spirit would mean to a stricken world. H The millions of Europe who have been left homeless and hopeless by the bloodiest orgy of war that vile greed has ever perpetrated, struggle for existence in a world all distorted with the darkness of confusion and discontent. Materialism gone mad has poisoned the life even of this nation which for them has been the ideal of freedom and of liberty. You, Americans, are their hope and their salvation. lf you would drive from America the forces of self- interest, of anarchy, and of infidelity, if you would free your country from all the forces that threaten its destruction, if you would make this nation the fulfillment of the dream of men and women who for centuries have toiled and sacrificed and died for humanity, il' you would hold tip to the stricken multitudes of liurope the light of hope and salvation, lay hold of the teachings of llim whose life and death epitomized the ideal of service and of love. Then truly will come the time when the voice of discontent and. unrest shall cease in our land and all the peoples of the world shall live together as children of one lfather, bound by the ties of human brotherhood to lives of love and service. Then shall the nations of the world no longer be filled with the spirit of self-interest and greed, but all shall strive for the betterment of the world. Then-shall we hear as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia, for the Lord Cod Omnipotent reignethf' Nami: This oration won first place in the twenty-fifth annual Tri-State Oratorical Con- test, held at Geneva College.

The boy believed in the man's friendly interest and never lost that belief. ln all the time since that day the promise of that first greeting has been re-alized in disinterested counsel, affectionate guidance, genial stimulation and inspiring expectation. Multiply this youthis experience with that of hundreds of boys and girls and there results some idea of the scope and richness of a life that flourished by enriching others. The stretch of time during the length of the preparatory department and the years of the college course gave the students of the period a prolonged contact with their teachers not now possible. The central figure in the group of influences that made the college was the president. lle entered into every interest. lle urged on every good work and skillfully steered away from the matters of less account. ln his classroom the love of the best in books was so prevalent that it was con- tagious. The world of English literature was made a real treasure land. When a student confessed that he had not explored a certain section he was told. Ahl but you have a long way to go before nightfall! The door of opportunity to get acquainted with the great work of the great writers was invitingly opened so often and so persuasively that it was nearly impossible not to enter in. Any trace of intellectual curiosity was kindled into a flame by the breath of inspiring apprecia- tion. Once in a while the desert island with the Bible, Robert Browning and Shakespeare looked almost' alluring. The cultivation of a taste for the good and true in the writings of the immortals was raised to the level of a major human in- terest. The quenchless devotion of a fine personality lit up the minds of the stu- dents who made the contact, and the glow of the wisdom of the past was handed on to another generation. The hrst paper you write for this course should be the best that you can do. ll' you write a good one at the beginning you will be ashamed to do less at any later time. This was the injunction that sought to lift every member of the class to the height of his own best in the knowledge that this plane would lift itself in progressive improvement. The goal was held far ahead, but the next step was not put beyond the individual's stride. lt was this blending of idealism and practical methods of progress toward the ideal that awakened in young hearts the notion that a thing could be done, and that it was worth doing. lt was a process of teach- ing the students that by exhausting their possibilities they could approach the impossible. The proving grounds for self-initiated intellectual effort in college in those days were the literary societies. They were an integral part of the educational system and brought out the ability to handle what was acquired in classi'oom and study. The criticisms and encouragement in these halls by fellow-members was valuable but when members of the faculty attended the general tone of the performances was raised. Especially was it true that the presence of the president, of even the expec- tation that he would appear, would put new vigor into the performers. llow his busy life allowed the time he spent in coming frequently to these meetings is a puz- zle to this late day. Truly the eye of the master did more than his hand in this case. lt was not the fear of rebuke that roused the latent energies of the performers. That would have been given gently, firmly and constructively, were it called for. lllllllllIIlllIlllIIlllllllIIlllllIlIIlllIlIlIllllIlIlllllllllllllllllllllllllIllllIlIlIIllllIIIllIlIIIIlllIIIIllllIIIIlllIlllllllllllllllllllllllIlllIllllIllllllllllllllllllllli' V liiglity-st-von ' The Cenevan '20 lllllllllllIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIlIIllilllllllllllllllllllllIllIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIIIIIllIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll Rather the hope that the visitor would not have cause to be ashamed, that he would be justified in feeling satisfaction at the progress exhibited, these were the motives to which Dr. -lohnston's piesence in the hall appealed. lt was no small privilege to have such a man listen to our efforts, crude and immature as they wereg listening eajgeily to find a good point from whose praise he could go on to constructive crit- icism, to encouragement to do better without llatteryg heartening the timid and rounding off the rough edges of our unfinished work. T During the excited days just after the blowing Lip of the Maine in 1808 when feeling ran high in college, Dr. johnston came to a meeting of one of the societies. The extempore class was called to the platform and a member was given the topic The Present Crisis. One look at the visitor and the speech turned to a plea for coolness, self-restraint, and a willingness to await the results of investigation ingo the cause of the disaster. ln this minister's breast there must have dwelt an unshaken confidence in the power of divine grace. Knowing all of us as well as he did, he still thought the most of LIS should enter the ministry. lt is doubtful if ever this idea was absent from his sub-consciousness. lt put vigor into all that he did to quicken our powers and bring out glimmers of decency that his eye of faith could detect. A minister ought to know and love the finest in literature. He ought to be able to present his ideas in the best form and with the greatest effect. He ought to have the sound mind in the sound body. This vias the great calling and no man had a right to think of any other without having given this his first consideration. This idea was never lost sight of and turned tip in all sorts of forms that made it impossible to overlook it. One day he declared, There isn't a man in this class whose mother doesn't wish him to be a minister. l'll give any man here a hat if this isn't true in his case When a brash youngster claimed the offer, he got an indulgent smile and the injunc- tion to go home and ask her. The slendernes of his ovt n frame seemed to impress him with the importance ol' physical development. The exhilirating effect of games and exercise on mind and body seemed to him to be of prime importance in fitting for the wear-and tear of after years. The gymnasium and athletic field were essential parts of the institution whose business it was to contribute to the development of all-aroun.l men angl women. Not only was his support official but vi Qo.ously personal in cheers and rooting that would have galvanized a locust post into action. Not the college only but the whole community was enriched by his life. His touch awakened ,people to their better selves, and sent them about their ordinary affairs as if they were on the king's business. He talked, to a teachers' institute in the Valley one time and left these over-advised, over-supervised and over-worked women with the feeling that they had the ability and opportunity to open the kin g- doin of heaven to the children in their charge. The routine faded from the class- room. The least attractive of the pupils became a possibility of unpredictable importance. fxddresseus like this renewed the life of the hearers. Radiant with an inner light, they dispelled discouragement, and drove avt ay the fogs of hesitation. An adequate survey of Dr. johnston's work and relationships would make it easy to know the chiel end ol man, the durable goods of time and the high road to immortality. l he life he lived contained more than the books he loved.

These performers are modest and have thus far nobly refrained from making formal announcement of their talent to the general public. Accordingly, it falls to our lot, through the columns of this book. to give to the orchestra its proper place in the Sun. Composed as it is of such accomplished musicians as Mellon, chief instigator of the Mellon Symphony Noise-makers of New Brighton, and Fife Sterrett, of Downie- ville fame, and their fair accomplices, Miss Patton and Mrs. Self, we have here an organization capable of producing jazz that would delight the hearts of all lovers of the terpsichorean art. As incontestable proof of Sterrett's ability as a cornetist, we submit evidence that on two occasions he was stoned out of his home town of Downieville by the irate citizens on the ground that his practice periods conflicted with the established hours for slumber in the surrounding neighborhood. 'Tis now rumored that even Mellon has incurred the wrath of numerous housewives in a vain attempt, before breakfast hours, to acquaint himself with the mysteries of the lula- paloozer which you see in his clutches.

Out ol' a total of sixty-live competitors lor places on this club, nineteen were chosen. Prof. Ernst Lunt, vocal instructor in Geneva, was chosen as trainer. The concert season has covered a wide range ol dates, beginning with the first of the year, and including engagements almost every week. Through the kindness ol several ol' the students, it was made possible to arrange concerts in several ol' the local towns, such as Conway,'Koppel, Patterson lleights, Chippewa, Oakville, New Galilee, Darlington, and Rochester. One ol' the best assurances that Geneva singers are still appreciated, was the en- thusiastic way in which the audiences greeted our club. The history ol' our eastern trip might occupy a volume in itsell'. The club lelt Beaver Falls on March 30, giving a concert in lVlercer that same evening. During the next two weeks eleven concerts were given in such centers as York, N. Y.g Walton: Bovina Centerg Syra- cuse, New York City, Boston, Thompsonville, Conn.: and Philadelphia. On Mon- day, April IZ, we completed our trip and arrived back at Geneva. ln every respect we must consider this trip one ol' the most successful ever un- dertaken by a Geneva College Glee Club. The presence ol the ladies ol' the club enabled us to give a more varied type ol' program than heretofore. Financially speaking, the trip was also more than a success. As members ol' the Geneva College Choral Club, we wish to thank the congre- gations and our hosts and hostesses who so kindly entertained us. We also express our appreciation lor Prolf ll. ll. Wylie, who sang with us and who was director in our concerts: also to Nlrs. lVlary lVlcConagha, who was our reader. We have enjoyed this glee club season very much and have considered it an honor 'to represent Geneva as entertainers. D. L. S., '22 GLEE CI.L1B. PTERSONNEI. P7'6Sidl37If-li. li. Sterrett.

The subject used was: Resolved, That the Government should control the prices of all foodstuffs, constitutionality conceded. Lawrence Gilmore captained the Afhrmative team, and he was supported by Leonard Duncan and Lawrence Patterson as speakers and George Robb as alternate. Taking the unpopular side of the question, these men on the Aflirmative built up sound, constructive speeches, and were especially able in their rebuttal speeches. As a result, in the contest at home with the Mt. Union Negative team on March I6, Geneva received the decision of all three judges. On March 25, our Affirmative team again won a unanimous decision, this time in a debate with the Bethany Negative team. Our Negative team was led by Clifford Mathews. Dther speakers were Eugenie Curry and Donald Martin, and Clyde McCarroll was alternate. Although this team was not so successful in convincing all the judges, it deserves as much credit as the other team. ln our debate with the Mt. Union Affirmative at Alliance, we convinced ourselves and most of the Mt. Union audience that we had won, but un- fortunately only one of the judges saw it that way and so we lost the decision two to one. Not daunted by their failure to convince the Alliance judges, these same fellows journeyed out into Ohio the next week and met Muskingum at Zanesville. Although the opposition worried tis more than at Mt. Union, we had the better of the argument, especially in rebuttal, and vxon the unanimous decision of the judges. We were fortunate this year in having such seasoned material with which to work. With four Seniors, Gilmore, Duncan, Mathews and Martin, all of whom had experience in lnter-collegiate debate, it was unnecessary to spend time on the funda- mentals of argumentation. Curry and Patterson were also experienced men, and with the assistance of the alternates, Robb and McCarl'oll, these teams built up a strong case on both sides of the question. Hard work in training with many practice debates was another factor in success. But especially noticeable this year was the ability of the Geneva men to come back in rebuttal ami smother their op- ponents. Without wasting time on unimportant details, our teams proved effective in picking out the vital parts of the arguments of their opponents, and hammering away at the most important issues. ln the home debates Capt. Gilmore was especi- ally strong in his final rebuttal speech. Pat used some humor to get the judges in a receptive mood and then Duncan and Gilmore came along and piled up the arguments. On the Negative team Capt. Mathews started the ball rolling, and Curry and Martin followed up in good shape, Martin being especially effective in his last rebuttal against Muskingum. lt is very pleasant to look back on this season's record but we should only look back long enough to get inspiration for the future. What are next year's prospects? With four of this year's speakers graduated, the coaches will have a different prob- lem to face. And yet we have confidence that Geneva will again be represented by strong teams next year as we have in past yars, because vte believe that a realiza- tion on the part of Geneva students of the great value and real enjoyment in lnter- collegiate debating will lead them to strive to fit themselves for places on the college teams.

The enrollment for this year totalled sixty- eight, twenty-eight ol' which were new members. The committee of the older members have directed the work well. The finance com- mittee reports a substantial balance in the treasury due partly to our Tag Day. japanese sales, handiwork booth and County liair, The social committee has successfully managed the teas lor new students and lor the downtown girls, lunches lor visiting loot-ball teams, and receptions for debating teams. The social service committee has done all the work possible in Americanization and in helping with census reports. The cabinets ol' the Y. W. and Y. lVl. co-operated in holding evangelistic meetings the second week ol' january. Dr. Acheson and Dr. Samson were our able leaders and gave very interesting and appealing lectures. Seventy-live students signed the pledge ol' personal sur- render. Delegates were sent to the Student Volunteer Convention at Des Moines, and to the conference ot' the Student Volunteer Union ol' Western Pennsylvania. which met in Pitts- burgh. We also sent one delegate to the National Y. W. C. A. convention held the lirst ol' April in Cleveland. The reports from these conventions and from the liaglesmere con- vention last summer have helped us much in making plans lor next year, which we hope will be even more successful than the present one has been.

Qi. Qt., 151211 The Y. M. C. A. was rather slow in getting under way due to the fact that otlicers lor the current year were not elected till after college opened in the fall. But as soon as possible the new Cabinet met with the liaculty Advisers and outlined a plan of action that has been very helpful to those who attended. Two discussion groups were organized-one Linder the leadership of Walter Smith, studying the Faiths of lVlankind and the other under Dan Stormont, studying the Social Principles ot' jesus. The most helplul meeting during the Hrst part ot' the second semester was that ot' April l4th when Rev. N. li. Richards gave us a stirring talk on The Importance of the Will in the Religious Life. The social events ot' the year such as the Thousand Mile Walk, the llallowe'en Mas- querade, etc. were piloted through to success under the leadership ol' the Social Committees ol' the two Associations. A new stunt, The County Pair. was worked out this year for the purpose of helping raise the expenses ol' our delegates to the Des Moines Student Volunteer Convention. Due to the tireless efforts of liasson Mclielvey lor the Y. M. and Margaret Robb for the Y. W., almost flliltltl was cleared for this purpose. The co-operation ol' the Student Body made it possible for the two Associations to send three student representatives and one lfaculty representative to the Student Volunteer Convention in Des Moines, Iowa, Dcember 3l-january 4. lilction of oflicers for l920-l92l on April 2l resulted as follows: President, ll.

December 31 to january 4, was the first one held since the Kansas City Convention in 191-1. The Des Moines Convention was made up of over seven thousand delegates repre- senting colleges, universities, the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A., from every corner of the earth. The foreign delegation was very large. Each college was allowed to send one delegate for every one hundred students and Geneva had four, who consid- ered themselves fortunate indeed in having the privilege of attending. - The purpose of these great international conventions is to inspire students and young people to missionary work. One of the greatest inspirations of the whole meeting was the sight of such a great number of students, each representing one hundred more at home, all interested in this great cause. john R. Mott, at the head of the Student-Volunteer Movement, presided at the convention. We were privileged also to hear Robert li. Speer, Dr. janvier, Dr. Wilde, Sherwood Eddy and many other of the foremost men in our own country, England, Canada, India, japan and other nations. Through these speakers with their whole life's work and experience behind them, along with all the returned missionaries who were seated on the platform, came a very forcible call to mission work. The absence of anything sensational, and the emphasis put on the fact that in the future missionaries must be men and women specially fitted and trained marks a great change in the missionary movement. The evangelization of the world for Christ cannot be brought about by sudden inspirations and starts ,but by the action of the thinking students of America. lt was the aim of the convention to instruct and inspire, but not to carry the hearers off their feet in the zeal of the moment, with later regret. So from the Des Moines convention there went out seven thous- and students who saw the great need of nations for Christianity, and who had been made to feel the'responsibility of the colleges and students for the evan- gelization of the world. I rv f, , 1 f- when Svtlrhent llluluntvrtf jltiainh The Student Volunteer Band started out the year with only three of the old members left, Alice Patton, Remo Robb and Lawrence Gilmore. Following the Des Moines convention we took on new life, and our band was strengthened by the addition of Charles Anderson, Frances Magee, jane Goltlen and Sarah Wells. Professor Charles Lee has been our mentor in this work. The outstanding events in the work of the band this year were the Des Moines convention and the Conference of the Pennsylvania Student Volunteer Union' in Pittsburgh, February 10, ll and 12. We have not had many meetings, but those which have been held have been very helpful, and have indicated sincere purpose, and great love for the cause. A former member of the Geneva Student Volunteer Band. Alvin W. Smith, of the Class of 1016, has just completed his first year in the Reformed Presbyterian Mission school at Larnaca, Cyprus. With him is F. Victor Tweed, of the Class of 1017. The work we have done this year will help to prepare us to follow in the footsteps of those whose lives have made Geneva known as an evangelizing force in the world of missions. , llIIIllllllIIllllllllIIllllIIIllIIIIlllllIIIIIIIlllllIIIlllIlllIllIIlllllllIIIIIlltIIIIIIlltIIIIII1IIIllIIllIIIIIlllIlllIIIllIlliIIIllIlllIIlllIlIIIIIllIlllIlllllllllllllllllllllll One liundrul ten The Genevan '20 llllllllllllllllllllIllllllllIllIllllllllIllllllllIllllllllllllllllllllIlllllllllllIIlllllIllllllllllllllllIllllIllllllIlllIllllIIllllllllllllllllllllllIlllllllllllllllllllllllllll Serial 4 1.121115 F7 Qtlre filiuusanh ,L ,ilv .Illiallt The annual Thousand Mile Walk was held oct the evening of September IO, in the college gymnasium. More students than at any previous year were there, as, owing to the ending of the war, a large lireshman class was enrolled, and many of the old students were back who had been absent for a year or two. A brief program was given. 'Miss Alice Patton, president of the Y. W. C. A., gave the address of welcome for the girls: and Lawrence Gilmore, representing the Y. M. C. A., gave the welcome speech for the men students. A At the sounding of the gong the customary circuitous pathway was formed, and at each succeeding sound of the gong the gentlemen stepped forward to get acquainted with the next fair lady in line. The lireshmen discovered that fictitious names were plentiful, but got along as best they could. ln an hour or so, after walking so far everyone felt the need of food, so the committee came to the rescue hy serving ice cream, cake and punch. The happy evening closed with the singing of the college songs, and everyone left, tired perhaps, but with the assurance of having formed many friendships to be valued in the future, Qllrtttfrlpt ieizvptiun The college students were the guests ol' the R. P. churches ol' College llill at a reception held in the Geneva R. P. church October 7. Meeting all the church people, who always know someone back home, helped take away that lonesome feeling which affects new students at the first of the year. A dozen or so groups were formed who furnished amusement during the rest of the evening hy staging various stunts. After a delicious lunch-and there were seconds too-the students echoed their thanks amid cheers and songs for the college and their friends. S9uply.t111tt1.ve I rch The Sophomore class organized their forces early this year, and much to the surprise of the lfreshmen, held their class party at the home of Miss Bernice Partington on College ave- nue the evening of September 22. All members were assembled before there was any inter- ference, and after much conflict the friendly Seniors were admitted within the threshold. Amid threatening shouts from the outside. the upper classtnen consumed quantities of sand- wichesg pickles, ice cream and cake. After this excitement the Sopliomores went over to the College gymnasium, where they spent the rest of the evening playing games. lllllllIllllllllllllllllIlllllllllllllIlllllllllllllllllllllllllllIIIlllllllllltIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIlllllllllllllllllllllnllllllllllllllllllIllllllllllllllllllllllllll Une nuitilretl eleven I The Genevan '20 illIlllllIIllIIIlllllllllllIIIIlllllllIllIIIllllllllllllllllllllllllllfllIlIflllllllllIlllllllIII'lllllllllIllIlllllllllllIllllllllllllIllIlllllllllllllllllllllllIlllllllllllllllll Zflrcahtttmt Zfieeh Thinking that distance lends enchantment the lfreshmen held their first class party at llomewood, the evening of October 2, having secured a hall in the town. The lzreshmen claim that all of the refreshments were consumed before the Sophomores heard they were out there, but it is rumored that a gallon or so of ice cream was taken by the Sophomores who succeeded in breaking into the hall before the evening's festivities were entirely over. At a wee small hour the Freshmen wended their way toward College llill, heaving huge sighs of relief, that they all were still in possession of their wavy locks. jjtmimf Eileen The more sedate junior class held a picnic at Violet Rock on Thursday evening, October 4. A big camp fire was built, and after satisfying their appetites the juniors sat around and told of their various experiences during the summer months. Neither a fire nor an evening is complete without songs, so the juniors ended their program for the evening with songs, and some cheers for their Alma Mater and their chaperons, Mr. and Mrs. Chester Lewis. The ZHallutuc'cn arty The annual llallowe'en party was held Saturday evening, November l, in the college gymnasium. The affair was in the nature of a masquerade and many spectacular costumes were in evidence. One amusing representative was C. Brainerd Metheny, playing the part of a cannibal and frightening the young lassies with his wild groans. Another clever impersona- tion was that done by john Sterrett, who was attired as a very well dressed young girl. About ten o'clock the masks were removed and everyone joined in merriment over the mistakes made in identifying the guests. lior instance, two girls chased a clown around the gym two or three times and then discovered. much to their amazement, after he had un- masked, that he was a member of the dignihed faculty. A regular llallowe'en lunch was served, pumpkin pie being the special feature. Q The college orchestra furnished the music for the evening and the music was thoroughly appreciated. Qn the whole the evening was one of the most pleasant of the social season. Eflnut-Blall Batty The toil necessary for a successful foot-ball season was rewarded by a party given in the reception hall of the main building by President and Mrs. R. ll. Martin on Thursday even- ing, December IS. The hall was quite transformed with palms and decorations in the college colors. The foot-ball men held a short meeting at which Freddy Loeffler was elected captain of the IOZO foot-ball team. The time passed quickly with charades and other games. A dainty lunch was served in an adjoining room where Christmas colors added to the brightness of the scene. Doctor Colwell acted as toastntaster, and members of the team and faculty responded to toasts. The old main building must have been startled at the cheers which echoed through its halls at such an hour. All present voted the affair one of the most successful of the whole year. , lllllllIIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllillllllllllIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIllllllllllllllllllll One lutnrlrcd twelve The Genevan '20 HllllHllVIIIIMIIIIHIIIIVIIIIIIVIIIIIIIHIIIIHIHIIIIHIIlIIIllIIIlII'IIIIIIIINIIIIVIIINIIIIIIIIllKIIHllIlIIIIIlVIIIlllIlIlIIIlHIHllIlVIIIYIIIIIIIIIIHIIIIIIIIllllllllll All Elngal 621121151115 'Ns , Wx, .

'lihis was the first attempt to hold a fair on college property, but its success would justify making it an annual event. A Rf? A lfllyiltrsnplpicall msning This was a very special occasion, a party held February 2, l92fl, by the philosophy class, in honor of the faculty. Since philosophy was considered such a stale subject and the mem- bers of' the class found it hard to spend the evenings quietly at home, they decided to put new spirit into things by showing the faculty a change. After a very gracious reception at the home of Mr. and Mrs. j. B. l.ytle, on liighth avenue, the evening was spent in various diversions. The ladies of the faculty were especially favored by a trip by aeroplane from which they got a good view of Beaver lialls, particularly Geneva College. 'lfhen by various tests the mental capacity of the faculty members was figured out. Refreshments were served and the party broke up with the customary singing of the college songs, and a very good rendition of the college yells by the faculty. St. 1Hab:islz's ,Iflay llparty The members of the Senior class were royally entertained at a St. Patrick's Day party given in their honor by Mr. and Mrs. Robert Clarke, and Dr. and Mrs. R.

Dr. Colwell seemed to have an unlimited store, with which he kept the party in gales of merriment. After the singing of Should Auld Acquaintance he Forgot? the Seniors departed with the memory of a very pleasant evening in their minds. llllIIIIllIlIIllllIlllllllIIIlIlllllllllllllllllllllllllllIlIllIlllllllllllllfllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIIIIIllllllllllllllfllllllllIlllllll One hundred fourteen ' The Genevan '20 llllllllllllllllllIIIlllllllllIllIlllllIlllllllllllllllIlllIllIlllllllllllllllIlIllllIlllllllllllllllllllIllllllllllllllllIlllllllllllllllIlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllld Flelraters Enttvtffaitteh at meme uf tfufessuv ,iiiarfiir - . t, X As a fitting close to a very successful debate season, the Geneva debaters and their chosen friends were royally banqueted by Prof .Sloane C.

The enthusiasm of the old members was much in evidence at the reception given for new students and faculty on October l0, A short program was given in the chapel-some of the original numbers being the presentation of a japanese song. and the shadow pantomime of the two college songs, There is a Tavern in the Town, and Solomon l.evi. After the piogram, partners were selected by the gypsy fortune tellers, and a delicious lunch was served by an eflicient committee. The interest of the programs has been increased by the work of new members. The entire roll is ninety, of which thirty-nine are new mem- bers. The inter-society contest stirred up much enthusiasm, as did the purchase of the new pins. The Victory Banquet for the contestants was held at the Elks' Club o:1 Thursday even- ing, March IH. A sumptuous five course dinner was served, after which the following pro- gram of speeches was given, with Dr. R. C. Colwell acting as toastmaster: Victory, Gentry llosack: Eyes Front, Paul White: Our Gold 'G'. Margaret Beattie: Readings, lidith O'Niell: l.eap Year Achievements, Mary Ryan: Nuts from the Campus Squirrel, Lois Patterson: Cloudland, Mary Kennedy: violin solo, Alice Patton: The Victory Cup, M.

This emblem will be in their possession until the next contest. ln retrospect, we may say that all the oflicers and committees have been faithful in the performance of their duties. The departing Seniors wish the old and new members alike the best of success in the work of the coming years.

The first part of the evening was spent in the college chapel, where two very interesting plays were presented by members of the society. Mrs. Marguerite lflower llemphill gave a very clever reading, and musical numbers completed the program. The hrst play of the two given was Pawns, a one act tragedy depicting peasant life on the Russian and Austrian hor- ders at the outbreak of the World War. The second play, entitled Food, was a one act comedy with three characters. Following the program the guests retired to the Aletheorian hall, where a delicious lunch was served by the refreshments committee. The hall was deco- rated in pink and white, the society colors, three booths, cleverly constructed aiding the COIN- mittee which served the refreshments. Pink roses were used as favors. The evening was brought to a close with the singing of the college song. This year has been a very successful one for the society. liollowing the reception many new members were added to the roll making a total of eighty-live in the organization. The programs have been very good, and have shown careful preparation on the part of the performers. One improvement which added much to the attractiveness of the hall was the converting of the platform into a stage, where several plays have been given hy members of the society. An important event was the annual contest between the two societies.

By defeating Thiel, Muskingum, Iliram, and Allegheny and tieing Westminster and Grove City, during a season when all the teams in this section were far above the average standard, Coach Bridenbaugh's proteges made a record of which everyone connected with the institution can be proud. The defeat suffered at the hands of Bethany at the last of the season was taken with good grace, the only regret being that the tremendous struggle with Grove City the Saturday before had left the team in rather bad condition to win. The climax of the season was the game with Grove City at Beaver lialls Satur- day, November l5, when the Geneva team, many pounds lighter than the Crimson aggregation, made a desperate stand to prevent Grove City's wresting from it the college championship ol' Western Pennsylvania. The game ended in a virtual de- feat for Grove City, for its team, picked to beat Geneva by twenty points, was outgamed and outplayed for practically the entire contest, and had to accept a 6 to 6 tie score as the verdict. The quality of Geneva's team this year showed that the high standing gained during the past few years is not an accident, and indicates that Geneva's athletic prominence is a phenomenon that is due to continue. The season record for l0l9 stands with four victories, two defeats and two tie scores, as follows: Geneva 2, Pitt 333 Geneva I3, Thiel 05 Geneva 2, Muskingum 03 Geneva IS, Iliram 03 Geneva 0, Westminster 01 Geneva 3, Allegheny O3 Geneva 6, Grove City 6, Geneva 7, Bethany l-l. The scores were uniformly low', showing that the games were hard fought all the way through. Geneva opened the season with Pitt at Beaver lfalls High School liield October -T, before the largest crowd that ever attended a foot-ball classic in the Beaver Valley. Coach Warner of Pitt, started his full string of champion warriors against Geneva, Stein, Aschman, Davies, Dehart and Hastings showing up to good advan- tage. lt was Dehart who Hrst got away from the Geneva gridders for a touchdown. The day was fearfully hot and the field was dusty, both teams having to play under hard conditions of climate. ln spite of this the Geneva defense held up well con- sidering the class of the attack it was subjected to. ln the second half, when both teams had several substitutes in the line-up, the Geneva players practically held their own, and forced Pitt to commit a safety. Pitt failed to score during the third quarter, and in the last quarter got a touchdown on a blocked punt. Although the Geneva team was unable to hold Pitt to aclose score, the Gold and White foot- ballers gave a good account of themselves, as is evidenced by the fact that the University of Pittsburgh management was very willing to schedule another game with Geneva at Beaver Falls. - Nothing daunted by failing to hold Pitt, the Geneva team got ready for Thiel. Before a slim crowd of rooters which sat through a drizzling rain, Coach Briden- baugh's men defeated.T.hiel by a scorelof l3 to 0. Miller, fullback, and Ransom, halfback, were the individual stars for Geneva, and Stanton, a Greenville lad, show- ed good generalship at the quarterback position. Stolowitz, a new backlield man, Illli:lnI:alilltlIitlinlI.:IInlilluIinlinIItIlllllluIItIliliulisIIiliIIliliillII.IIItlirlxlIIillnlIIiaI:IInlill:IliIIinII4llIIrlIItIIrliIII:IitlitItlIInlillilllileilllllllltlu One liuntlretl twenty , The Genevan '20 IllllllIllllllllllIIIIlllllllllllllllllllIIIllfllllllllllllllIlllllllllllllllllllllllllhlllllllllIllIllllllllllfllllllllllfllIlllllfllllllllllIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll 4. added strength to the Geneva attack. lVliller and Ransom scored the touchdowns, and llarr kicked goal. T Bad weather conditions at New Concord made it necessary to postpone the Geneva game from Saturday, October l8, to Tuesday, October Zl. The regular Muskingum gridiron was under water, so the game had to be played on an impro- vised field, which was a sea of mud. Muskingum threw a scare into the Geneva team when the Gold and White was unable to score any touchdowns, and was held to a 2 to 0 score. The two points came when Captain Smith blocked a punt, and Loeffler downed his man for a safety. The Geneva team had to put up a liardfight to win this game, but determination to win, whether by a small score or a large one, enabled the boys to mark the score up on the right side of the ledger. The team developed a real punch at lliram on Saturday, October 26, and won over the Ohioans by three touchdowns. The teams battled through the first quarter with no scoring, but in the second quarter Geneva worked the ball to the fifteen- yard line, where Curry was turned loose. A sprint around right end resulted in the first touchdown of the game. ln the third quarter Miller plunged the line for another touchdown. The third touchdown was made with a brilliant attack in the final part of the last quarter, when a series of fake plays and two line plunges carried the ball across, Stolowitz scoring. The figures for the contest showed that lliram made only two first downs to Geneva's seventeen. Westminster's far-famed collection of grid stars found Geneva too tough a proposition to defeat Saturday afternoon, November l, on the soupy Geneva field. and had to battle desperately through four periods of play to keep Coach Briden- baugh's determined warriors from shoving the ball across the Blue and White line. The crisis of the game for Geneva came in the third quarter, when the locals had the ball on Westminster's ten-yard line, where forward passes failed to secure the necessary score. The Geneva players had the best of the struggle with the exception of a few minutes in the final period, for the Westminster goal line was continually threatened. The Westminster team put up a grand defense, and fought hard, as all Westminster teams do, The Westminster undergrads occupied the north end of the stand and kept up a continuous competition with the Geneva rooters who were located at the other emi of the bleachers. For a wet day the crowd was large, and all friends of the team were pleased with the support accord- ed it. . The Geneva team turned the trick of defeating AllegIieny's eleven on its own field, Saturday, November 8, by a score of 3 to 0. The winning points came in the third period of play, when halfback Curry ran the ball thirty-five yards around Allegheny's left end to the 30-yard line, and Gig Thomas, Geneva quarterback, drop-kicked the oval squarely between the bars. ln this game the strength of the Geneva line was demonstrated. The time when Thomas scored his successful drop-kick the Geneva forwards held like a stone wall and blocked Allegheny com- pletely. Nliller and Stolowitz hit the line hard in this game, and Tippin, substitut- ing at end, made a good impression. Armstrong, brother of Kirk Armstrong, of former Geneva fame, appeared at guard in this game, exhibiting a fine brand of foot-ball. Paul lVlcCracken, sent in at guard, made a fine bid to keep up the repu- tation of the family as won by his brother Spud n The ponderous Grove City aggregation was the next attraction on the Geneva card,-and the Crimson gridders landed in Beaver Falls November l5, prepared to defeat the local team by at least Z5 to 0. When the tw'o teams got on the held the lighter eleven bewildered the visitors with a varied assortment of intricate plays, IlllflIIlllfllIIIflllllllllllflllIlllIllllIllIIlllllflIlllllIllllllllIIIllllllIIlIfIlIllllllllIllllIIIIIllllIllIIllllIllIIIIlllllIllIlllIIlllllllIIIIlllIlIIIlllllllllllllllllllllll Une hnnclreil txvenly-one The Cenevan '20 IIIIIIIIlllllIIIIIIIIIVIIIIVIIIllIlllllIIIIlllllllllllllllllilIIIIIYIIIltlllllllllIllIllllllllIIIIIIllllllllHIIIlIIl!IlIIIlllllllllllllll!IlIIII!lIIlIIIIlllllilllllllllllllll I IIIIIIlllllllllIlfllllllllllllllIIIIIIllllllllIllIlllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIl'IlIlllllllllllIIIIllllllllllllllIllllllilllIllllllllIIIIllllllllllllllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVIII Om- humlrcfl iwm-my-iwo The Genevan ,20 llIlllllllllllllllIlIllIllllIlllIlllllllllllIllllllllllllllllllllIIllllllllIllllllllllIllllIlllIlllllllllllllllllllllllIlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIllllllllllllllllllllllllll and outcharged the heavy Crimson forwards, the contest ending o to 6. 'l'homas registered two beautiful drop-kicks behind the steady Geneva line for the local aggregatiorfs points, and Grove City scored after a march up the field that used up all the pep the visitors had. With the ball inside Geneva's five-yard mark, Grove City made three unsuccessful attempts to crash through, and on the next play started what looked to be a lateral pass close up to the line of scrimmage. Instead of passing laterally, however, llodge of Grove City, shot the ball across the goal line to Sellers, who registered a touchdown. Refe.ee lvlcliarland ruled the pass legal, and the score stood. A feature of this game was the frequency with which Geneva vtorked the triple pass for long gains. Thomas. Ransom, Curry and Miller in the Geneva backfield. worked like a machine, and with the Geneva forwards charging too quick for the slow-moving Grove City linemen and this backfield combination starting fast and hitting hard, the plays that the men had been drilled to were very effective. This game which was one of the feature athletic events of that Saturday, prove.l in fact a triumph for Geneva. The great shovring of the team xt as celebrated that evening in a rousing pep meeting in the gym, at which several of the college cele- brities spoke, and refreshments were ser'ved by the Freshmen girls. The Geneva triumph was somewhat marred by the fact that in the second quar- ter of the contest Bob Forbes was hurt following a punt, and suffered a broken leg. ltle was taken away to the hospital, but the other fellows on the team braced up, and played harder than ever. Bob's injury kept him out of basket-ball too, vthich was a great loss to the school, for the foot-ball end was also the basket-ball cap- tain, and one of the best guards Geneva has ever produced in the floor game. The final game of the season resulted in a defeat for Geneva, for Bethany came to Beaver Falls with a fine team, and managed to get away with a I4 to 7 victory. Bethany was unable to gain consistently through the line but worked the ends to advantage. Geneva scored when llarr recovered a fumble on Bethany's 45-yard line and ran for a touchdown. Bethany scored her touchdown as the result of fumbles and one blocked kick. Geneva's defeat may be partly accounted for by the reaction after the hard game vrith Grove City the Saturday before, and the fact that injuries necessitated rearranging the Geneva lineup, but the defeat was accepted vtith good spirit. A critical examination of the Geneva team shows that its strength came from the way each man was used to make the niost of his ability. A great factor in the team's showing was Captain Walter L. Smith, who played right guard throughout the season. Smith is a big chap, weighing about l9O pounds, and was able to keep his side of the line anchored in such a vray as to be dependable. The presence of such men in the line is the reason vt hy Geneva could do so much scoring from the field, for the backs could have time to get their kicks off properly. Nluch was expected from Smith on account of his fine showing with the Chicago Naval Re- serve eleven, and the big captain did not disappoint those who believed in him. He proved an able leader as well as a fine player. ' For the other guard position Smith had several running mates. Schutte was the regular performer at that place. Although having only one year's previous experience Schutte developed into a player of championship caliber. lle had un- limited pep and fight, and was one of the most aggressive players on the whole team. Armstrong and McCracken substituted at guard, and Bob Forbes was used there in one or two contests. lull:lulllllllllluluIlllulnlllllallrlulllluluInllllullrllllrlIIllulnllllllIlllrrInllllululnluInllrlulillulllllllullllltlrlllllllllllullrlululllllllllluln Une lrunrlrcd twenty-tlrrve IIIIIIIIIIIIlllllflllIIIllIllllllllIllllIlllllllllllIIIIIII'IllllllllllIlllllllllllllllllllllllIlllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII'IllIlIIlllllllllllllllllllllllIlIIlIIlIIllIlIllIll'lIl The Genevan '20 ululnllllulnlullllxllnlnlllllllulnluluIlllxllullllullllulul:allllullllulullllulullllllllllnllululllllllnlullllllllxllllllllxllllllllllulullllllllllll 1 Um' humlrwl hvcnty-fmlr Illll The Genevan '20 llIllllIllllllllllllllllllllllllIIIIllllllllllllllllIlflllllllllllllllllfllfllllllflfllllIlllllIIIllllllllllfIlllllllfllllllflflllllllIIIIlllfllllllllfIlllllfllllIlllllflllllllllll Patterson played center for the entire season after the Pitt game, and developed into one of the best pivot men Geneva has had. lle proved to be a good passer, and on the defense was very effective in breaking up plays. ln Loeffler, Boulding, Mclsaacs, and McCracken, Geneva had tackles who could be depended upon in every play. Loeffler was one of the finest performers in inter-collegiate circles. ln the Pitt game several times he tackled the fleet Davies before he could get started with the ball, and in all the games of the season showed up brilliantly. Boulding performed with the same brand of foot-ball that made him a star last year. Mclsaacs and McCracken did not get into as many quarters of play as the others, but proved valuable in a pinch. 'fBob Forbes, whose regular position was end, was used as a tackle in the early part of the season. For ends the team had Harr, Forbes, Atwell, Tippin and Baird. The experi- ence of Harr and Forbes made them very valuable men. Atwell showed up well this year, and appeared in almost every game. Tippin and Baird, both new men. while not very big, played a great game. Both were good tacklers, and proved vigilant guardians of the terminals of the line. Geneva had some of the best backfield material this season that Coach Briden- baugh has ever had to work with. f'Gig Thomas, who played quLu'terback on one of Bridenbaugh's Beaver Falls High School teams, was the regular quarter- back this year, andproved one of the best field generals who ever wore the Gold and White. Besides, he showed great ability in kicking goals from the field, and won the Allegheny game and tied the Grove City game by means of his educated toe. Stanton, an acquisition from Greenville High School, proved a valuable quarterback, and was used at times as a halfback. Curry, Ransom, Stolowitz, Allison and Baker were the halfbacks on whom Geneva depended this year. Curry, who is a ten-second man, proved a sensational performer as was expected on account of his work last year in the few games in which he had a chance to show his worth. Running the ends was his specialty but he was heavy enough to break through the line, and to run well in a broken field. Ransom proved to be as hard a line plunger as ever, and was chosen to do most of the punting. Stolowitz, a Beaver lad, was a find this year. After practice had started and the Pitt game was over, he appeared on the scene, and was injected into the Thiel contest, the very first one after the Pitt game. lle used his weight well, and hit the line hard and fast. Until he got his ankle broken in the Allegheny game he was a regular performer behind the line. Allison, substitute halfback, showed real speed in the games in which he appeared. Miller, the versatile athlete who played fullback in every game this year. played first for Geneva in the .Autumn of l9l6, and was away two years in the aviation service. Playing on an aero camp eleven gave him good experience, and as a result, he put up a great game at fullback. He was relied on to plunge the line. and with his partner Stolowitz, made great gaps in the opposing ranks. Miller scored two touchdowns during the season, which is a good record considering the hard opposition which Geneva met, and the fact that the kicking game was relied on to win. Besides these first string men, the second team fellows whose work was a great' factor in making the Geneva team what it was, should not be forgotten. A large squad of players reported throughout the season, and the reserve players hammered the first string men into shape for the big games. llllllllllllIIIIIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIlllllllllllllllllIlllllllllllllflilllllllllllllllllllIllllllllllllllllllllIllllllllllllllllllllllfllllllllll One liumlred twenty-five The Genevan '20 lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllllllllllllllllllllllllIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll On the whole the Geneva team was characterized by speed rather than by weight. The strength of the attack was based on charging hard, and using varied formations and open play. The team did not average any more in weight than last year, and had to meet teams which outweighed it completely, the only excep- tion being Muskingum. Geneva lost only one of the games which the team might have been expected to win, and that was the one with Bethany. lt was too much to hope for a victory over Pitt. All of the games except these two were either won or tied. The fact that they were real games is shown by the smallness of the score. The ability of the Geneva foot-ball team to stand up against such heavy and well-trained teams as appeared on the IQIO schedule cannot be understood with- out reckoning with 'the character and ability of P. ll. Bridenbaugh. The Geneva players were coached in all the art of foot-ball. The linemen were drilled to charge hard and fast, and the backlield and ends were coached to work in co- operation with this line in a varied assortment of plays which were calculated to advance the ball under almost any conditions. The brilliance of this attack came to light morein the Grove City game than in any other, when the light Geneva players were able to take the ball down the field for the first score from the kickoff, without losing possession of the ball to Grove City. All through this game, even when the lighter team should have been worn out with the hammering received from the heavier players, the speed of the Geneva attack remained unimpaired. Without doubt, even with the good material that was available this year, Geneva's foot-ball record would have been different had it not been for the skill of Briden- baugh. ' Graduate Manager M. Rutherford Glover conducted foot-ball affairs this sea- son with his customary care and enthusiasm. The schedule was well balanced, and Pitt was by no means the only big attraction. Every game was worth seeing, and there were no second rate teams on the card. The members of both the first and second teams were equipped with the best material obtainable, the regulars received the customary letters and emblems from the college as a sign of apprecia- tion of their efforts. Manager Glover's presence is a sign that athletics are being conducted in the right way, and a speech from him always generates enthusiasm. Taken as a whole, the season of l0l9 is one on which we can look back with a feeling of satisfaction and pride--pride in the college which the team represented, pride in the team itself and the way it fought for Geneva, and pride in the coach and management, andthe student body which stood behind the team. Looking 'forward to the season of IQZO from the standpoint of the season of l0l9, it seems that we have good cause to anticipate even greater success in the future, and that Captain Smith, Schutte, liorbes and Nlclielvey who will be graduated this year, may hear next year of the success ol' their former team- mates in the hard games of the l9Z0 schedule.

B. Barrett and Arthur McKean. Special attention was given each candidate by Coaches Bridenbaugh and Mc- Carter. just here a word should be said about the excellent work done gratis by Harry McCarter at camp, assisting Coach Bridenbaugh with each man individually. Also l want to say a word about the wonderful eats prepared for the boys by Mrs. R.. G. Forbes, Miss Mary Downie and Miss Mazie Glover. These meals we.e a most enjoyable part of camp life, and were greatly appreciated by the squad ol' hungry foot-ball men. ' Ten days in all were spent at camp. Only one practice session was missed between the breaking ol' camp and the first practice on our own field, September IS, when a squad ol' sixty men reported to Coach Bridenbaugli and assistant coaches Martin and McCarter. Much interest in foot-ball activities was shown the opening day of college and grew as the first game of the season drew near, 'the Geneva-Pitt game at Beaver Falls. The fact that we were able to bring Pitt to Beaver Falls was considered a wonderful boost for Geneva's athletic standing. The game was played on the Beaver Falls High School Field, October 4, before the largest crowd that ever attented a loot-ball game in the Beaver Valley. Our fellows soon overcame their nervousness, and in the second hall' played as good a game as Pitt, losing by a final score ol' 33-Z. The Saturday following the Pitt game, Thiel came to our own field and on a sea of mud during a heavy rain that fell all through the contest went down by a score of I3-0. The following Saturday, October IS, we were booked to play Muskingum at New Concord, Ohio, but owing to the fact that their field was under water the game was postponed till Tuesday, October Zl. We were able to win only by the hardest kind of work by the score Z-0. Our fourth game on the schedule was with Hiram at Hiram, and with similar weather conditions as before we won out 180 ' Our next opponents were our good U. P. brethren from New Wilmington, who came to town with a train load of loyal rooters, confident that they would take the measure of the Geneva team. When the final whistle blew we were compelled to be satisfied with a 0-0 score, instead ol' a victory which we well deserved. The next Saturday, November 8, we journeyed to Meadville for our annual game with Allegheny. For the first time since the Pitt game we were greeted by an ideal day and the best playing field we have had in Meadville for years. Our team went on the field with the determination to bury the old hoodoo on that Held, which was done, by a score of 3-0. The game of November I5 will go down in the athletic history of Geneva as one of the greatest games ever played on Geneva Field, for on this date Grove City brought to Beaver Falls the finest team they have ever gotten together. When they walked out on the held we all held our breath for we surely saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of giants, and we were in our sight as grass- hoppers, and so were we in their sight also. But with the exception of a few minutes in the first half Grove City was outplayed by the smaller Geneva gridders, and the contest ended in a 6-6 tie. This was a victory for Geneva and was con- ceded as such by the Grove City manager, coach and players.

The curtain rang down on our 1910 foot-ball season Saturday, November 22, when the strong Bethany team dropped into town just long enough to take oL1r scalp and then disappear to the victorious tune of 14-7. ln summing up this sea- son of 1919, we lind that we have won four, lost two, and tied two, a creditable record. Immediately at the close of the foot-ball season our attention was directed to basket-ball. Our schedule opened a month early due to the fact that we had games booked with both Yale and Princeton. The Yale game was scheduled for December 30 and the Princeton game for january 1. This necessitated the start- ing of basket-ball practice at once so that we would be in condition to give these two big teams real contests, which we did, although losing bothg Yale winning Z8-27, and Princeton Z8-16. We played twenty games in all, winning twelve and losing eight. The Girls Basket-ball team with an entirely new lineup, gave a good account of itself in every game played. Miss George has worked out a good combination this year for which she deserves much credit. Miss llunter is the only one lost by graduation this year and next year the girls should be able to win nearly every game. Miss Stewart as manager of the Girls' team, has worked very efficiently. We now come to the Spring sports, and for the first time in twelve years Geneva will be represented by a base-ball team. We have at present games booked with Pitt, Tech, Westminster, Grove City, Bethany, St. Vincent, Kiski, with the possi- bility that W. and j. and the University of West Virginia will be played. Our track prospects are very bright as nearly all of last year's track men are in school, and several new candidates are showing up remarkably well. Fred Miller captains this year's track team, and has proved a splendid leader. Our foot-ball captain, Walter L. Smith, was a man certainly worthy of the honor given him by his team-mates. We are all glad that Geneva had such a good year under his leadership. Leslie llarr, who was called upon to captain the basket-ball team when Forbes, captain-elect, was not able to play all season, 'did everything in his power to keep the combination working well. This article would not be complete without reference being made to Coach Bridenbaugh, Assistant Coach S. C. Martin, Cheer Leader Donald Martin and Student Managers Eugene Curry and Willard Conner. Coach Bridenbaugh has finished his third year as coach at Geneva and has demonstrated to all that he is far above the average college coach. Assistant Coach Martin can give as good an account of himself on the foot-ball field as he does in the classroom. I-lis work has been that of developing a good second, team. Scouting seems to be his strong point in the coaching line, and such a man has a real place in athletics. The student managers, Eugene Curry in foot-ball, and Willard Conner in basket-ball, have proved to be above the average student manager. The work of Don Martin as cheer leader was a main factor in keeping the Geneva spirit and pep in working order. The year of 1910-1920 has been in every respect a very successful year, not only in the results of different contests, but also linancially. The co-operation of the Alumni and local businessmen has been a leading factor in solving our financial problems, and has permitted us to bring many teams to Beaver Falls otherwise unobtainable. Our Alumni Association at present numbers 125 members, but this can very well be doubled at once. lf every one backs Geneva athletics loyally, we will be able to do more in the future than in the past.

H. BRIDENBAUGH As was predicted, foot-ball, the most popular American college sport, enjoyed the best season in l9l0 of any since IQI3. As soon as the armistice was declared, college men in the service planned to take up their work again, and this provided the colleges with more and better material than they had had for several years, Then, too, colleges, having learned from the war the value of athletics, gave more encouragement to sports in general. All that Geneva lacked in the way ol' material was weight, and to a great extent this was made tip for in speed and grit. ln only one of the eight contests did Geneva have an equal advantage in weight, and that was with Muskingum College. So, when we consider that Geneva was pitted against teams that were well coached, and that had a marked advantage in weight, we realize that to win four, tie two and lose two is no mean record. The good record we made this year, however, will not help us to win games next year. ln fact. it might be a handicap. The teams we defeated will strive harder than ever to get even. Even now some of the colleges, if not all of them. are making extensive plans for next year. Star high school and preparatory school athletes, who expected to be graduated in june, have already received information from several colleges. So it behooves every one connected with Geneva athletics, yes, every one connected with the college, to put foi'th every effort to induce pros- pective college students to. choose Geneva for their Alma Mater. ln making a survey of the material for next year, we find that we lose three men by graduation, Captain Smith, Forbes and Schutte. We will not only lose these men, but we shall miss them. All these were excellent players and hard fighters. Boulding and john Curry have already dropped out of school, although it is rumored that john will be back next fall. So out of fifteen letter men we may expect ten or eleven to be available. On the second team we have the follow- ing men who displayed enough of foot-ball to warrant recognition next year, lVlcGracken, Baird, Armstrong, Nlclsaacs, Allison, Baker and li. Gurry. lt is quite evident that we have enough veteran matei'ial to build up a good team. But it is far from being enough. Our schedule for next fall is much harder than this year, 'for in addition to the Pitt game, we have added W. and ll. which will have one of their old time big teams. To compete successfully with teams of the caliber ol' those which we must meet, we must have two or three good men for every position on the team. ln winning twelve out of twenty games the basket-ball team held up the standard of Geneva teams of the past two years. The record of games won does not look so large, but we must remember that this is a banner year in all sports, and that the caliber of basket-ball displayed in the Tri-State district was much better than in past years. We do not lose any of the regulars of this year's team by graduation. lf all return next year, Geneva should be represented by one of the best basket-ball teams in her history. Geneva today holds a prominent position in Western Pennsylvania athletics. This has not been attained without some effort. To hold this standing will require still greater effort. We cannot expect to win victories on our reputation. We must have even better teams than in the past. So let every loyal Genevan bear in mind that next year we must not only have better teams, but better support, and better spirit. , D IlllllllllllIIIIIIllllIIIIIIIllllIIllllllllllIllllllIlIllllIlIIIIllllillIIlllllIIlllllllllllllllIIIllIllllIIlllilllllIIllIllllllllllIlllllllIIllllllllllIllllllllllllhillllllllllll One hundred thirty-one The Genevan '20 llIlllllllflllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll IHI Ill Ill I N- L I I flu L , tj E 1 ' i f g x 3 i K rl lx 3 X .4 X 'x' 'f La I K x L ' - 1 'X 45,1 .ffl V x 5 IZ! 6 fs' 'Ag 45 xi 'N -x V 1 I . xxx , .r , K if K1 v W4 K ,, 2 3 VarsiL,v linsleel'-Hall Team, 1920 I I il I IIIIIIIIIINIIIIIIllllllllIVIHIHIIWIIIIYIII II I Ill I I ll!

Games were scheduled with Yale and Princeton, West Virginia Wesleyan and Pitt, besides the regular attractions from the colleges in this section. The success of the team measured in terms of victories was not such as to war- rant any claim for having a championship team, but our team played excellent basket-ball, however, proving a tough proposition for both Yale and Princeton and breaking even with or mastering practically all of our Western Pennsylvania opponents. One of the most signal successes of the year was the victory over the strong West Virginia University team at 1Vlorgantown, a team which later was a strong contender with Pitt for the sectional championship. Our season opened with a victory over the Alumni by a score of 32 to 27. Pol- lowing this Dick Guy's Collegians from Pittsburgh were subdued by a score ol 42-16. Yale was the next on the card, and before a crowd that jammed every nook and corner of the gymnasium, Geneva lost a most stubbornly contested game by a score of 28 to 29. Such was the closeness of the contest that the result was in doubt until the final whistle sounded. Princeton came to Beaver liialls on New Year's evening, and displayed a better basket-ball machine than did Yale. The passing and team work of the Tigers left nothing to be desired ,and few if any teams have ever appeared to as good advantage in Geneva gymnasium. Geneva played better during the second half than in the first period, and fought gamely till the end, when the final score stood 26-16 for Princeton. Following a 46-33 victory over Sewickley Y, the Geneva passers went to Morgan- town to play West Virginia, january 9. Early season reports indicated that West Virginia had one of the best teams in the country. Close guarding marked the en- tire contest, Patterson and Loeffler showing up well in this department for Geneva. liield goals in the last minutes of play pulled Geneva ahead and our team won 25-23. A - On january 25 the team went to Bethany to help dedicate the new Bethany gymnasium. Coach l3ridenbaugh's charges descended on Bethany with a variety' ofthe floor game which had not been seen in that vicinity heretofore, and effectually dedicated the new gym by a count of 36 to 22. Following this game Geneva won over the Westinghouse Club on the home floor, +12 to 31. Grove City was our next opponent, january 28, the Crimson team appearing on the home floor with a line-up of stars for every position. Geneva played desperately but finally went under by a score of 32 to 20. The feature of this game was the tremendous comeback staged by Grove City after Geneva assumed a lead in the second half. ' The Westinghouse Club won out over Geneva by a narrow margin on the return trip to Pittsburgh. The K. of P. team from Bridgewater was trounced by a score of 42 to 19.

Snowed under the first half, the Blue passers came back with a rush and almost got away with the game before the home team could get into its stride again. The final score was 35-27. Grove City proved better than ever when Geneva played the Crimson passers on their home floor, and won out over our team 43 to 26. Geneva was unable to sub- due Pitt at Trees gymnasium, although outplaying the Panther team all but a few disastrous minutes of the game, and lost by a score of 40 to 3l. On a long jaunt East and North, Coach Bridenbaugh's men stopped off at Mead- ville and defeated Allegheny by a score of 34 to 23, which, with the previous foot- ball victory, made two defeats for Allegheny at Meadville by Geneva this year. A sad fate awaited Geneva at Buffalo, however, and on an immense fioor whe.e one basket could be viewed from another only by means of a telescope, Bufialo tri- umphed by a count of 53 to l9. Two thousand spectators are said to have witnessed this game. West Virginia Wesleyan brought a fine team to Beaver Falls, and won out, -f0 to 25. ln the following game, the return game with Allegheny at Beaver Falls, we saw the Geneva combination working mote smoothly. ln a desperate comeback Geneva caught up with Allegheny after the Meadville passers had assumed a lead, and, with the gym rocking with the noise from the stands, Louie I-louston forced the game into an extra period by tying the score, with a goal from the foul line. Scoring four points in the five minutes extra, Geneva won with a final figure of 30 to 26. ln spite of the fact that two Harmony cars filled with Geneva rooters went to New Castle for the Geneva-Westminster game at the Y, M. C. A. gymnasium, the Geneva team was unable to pull through with a win, losing by a score of 33 to 28. The splendid fight put up by Geneva, however, made it possible to view the loss without undue regrets. ' The season was brought to a glorious close by a 46-28 win over juniata. ' The individual work of the players was very fine. Captain Forbes was missed from the line-up, but his place as still guard was ably taken by Patterson, and later by Miller. ln the absence of the captain-elect, Leslie llarr, our tall center, filled the position of captain in a very creditable manner. When it is remembered that lelarr played all season with weak arches, his playing was rema1'kable. Our forwards were both diminutive, but very speedy and versatile. Thomas was conspicuous for his splendid floor work and passing. l-louston, who was ex- pected to be a star from his reputation gained in Beaver Falls High School, fully lived up to expectations. lelis deadly accuracy from the foul line, and his aggressive play on the floor were responsible for several victories. Loeffler at guard was better even than before, and his play caused much favor- able comment from opposing teams and sport writers who had occasion to see him in action. Patterson made a fine still guard, and on occasion proved to he a very dangerous man coming up the floor. Two long shots which he executed at Morgan- town did a great deal tow ard 'winning the victory over West Virginia. lt was with regret that the athletic authorities at Geneva let him retire on account of an over- strained heart. Fred Miller took his place, and played a brand of basket-ball that won the admiration of the whole college and also visiting teams. The others who played, Galbraith, Stanton, Allison and Atwell, should not be forgotten, and also the second team, as their work was also a great factor in making the season of IQIO- l920 a success. . i IIIllllllllllllllIlllillllllfllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllllllllllllIllfllllllltlllllllllllIllIllllllllllllfllllllllllllIIlllIlIllllllllllllllillllllllIlllllflllllllllllllIIIIII Une liunrlrul thirty-four The Genevan '20 lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIllllllllllllIlllllllllllIllllllllllIlllllllllllllllllllllIIIlllllllllllllllIIlllllllllllllllIlllllllllIIllIllllllllllllllllllllllIllllllll x 1 I Varsity Team, Girls' Basket-ball, 1920 X lxllIlIllllIllIIllIllllIIIllIllIllIIlIIlIIllllIllllIllIllIllIIIIIIllIlllllIIlllllllllIIlIlllll-llllllllllllllllllIlllllllIIlllllIlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIllllllllllllllllllllll One hundred thirty-five The Geneuan '20 llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll I llllllllllllll Stiaixstxrs FOOT-BALI- STATISTICS, 1919 Player 7-l7IllflI1T0'ZUIl.Y Goals lficlzl linalx Safely Tal Miller ................ 2 I2 Thomas ............ 3 9 I-larr ..................

Allegheny placed in every event, and crowded Geneva out altogether in the l00-yard dash. With only fourteen entrants in the field, Geneva went up against Allegheny's twenty-five man team. Allegheny started off by taking first and second in the 220 hurdles, Stringer. Geneva's captain, won the hall' mile in 2:2 Z-5. Geneva failed to place in the 100- yard, but lioy Curry gamely fought his way to second place in the broad jump. Welty, Allegheny's crack weight man, took first in the hammer throw, shot-put and discus, but Miller managed to gather seven points for Geneva out ol' these events. Stringer, although badly used up after the half mile, got a third in the mile. The thrill ol' the meet was the sensational finish ol' the two-mile between Axtell, Geneva, and lfaulkner, Allegheny, the former winning after a sprint for the final hall'-lap. Geneva won the relay, Patil jones, lirazier ,Stringer and Curry composing the quartet for this event. Miller and Curry were Geneva's best point winners, Miller getting I3 and Curry l0, not counting the relay. Captain Stringer won six with a Iirsl in the half and a third in the mile, besides running in the relay. GBc11v11a-Qlaltfltvgic meth 'ilrarlt ,jllllvvt On ,I une 7, IOIO, Geneva track and field men lost out to Carnegie Tech, 73 to -l-l. in a meet that was fought through on pretty even terms until the last. The Plaid runners won seven first places and a tie, besides taking the relay. Geneva man- aged to come through with six firsts and a tie, but lost out by failing to place men second in the events won. Russell won the l00 and 220 for Tech, and Captain Schmidt and Gare copped both places in the quarter. Captain Stringer ol' Geneva starred for his team, win- ning the half mile in l:50 2-5, breaking the college record, and finishing the mile lun ahead of Sacks. Axtell of Geneva ran a pretty two-mile race, running in the lead all the time and winning the event in 10:52. Foy Curry showed up well for Geneva, only a bad fall preventing him from taking the 220 hurdles, and he won the 120 hurdles and the high jump as well as showing class in the-pole vault and the relay. The relay was-a nip-and-tuck afl'air until the last quarter when Captain Schmidt ol' Tech got away from Curry, who had already been in five events. Miller, the Geneva weight man, garnered I5 points from the shot put, the hammer, the discus and the hij:,h jump.

Too many Millers on the Geneva team spelled the defeat of the Meadville aggregation, for Captain lired Miller, with first place in the IUU-yard, the 220-yard, the discus and second in the shot-put and hammer throw, collected Zl points for his team, and T. li. Miller garnered l5 more, with first place in the mile, two- mile and the half. Besides they both ran in the relay, which won the meet for Geneva. The meet was fast throughout and replete with thrills, the score being close up to the last event, when Geneva started the relay with the count of 64 to 6l in favor of Allegheny. Captain Miller ran the first quarter for Geneva and secured a good lead, the most of which Curry saved for Tippin. Tippin ran neck and neck with his man but in the finish, T. E. Miller, with the crowd yelling and stamping wildly in the stands, cut loose with a sprint for the last 220 yards and won the meet for Geneva. Allegheny presented a fine, well-balanced team and it was only by working hard for every event that Bridenhaugh's athletes managed to pull through. The sensation of the occasion was the performance of T. li. Miller, who is one of the hnest distance runners Geneva has produced in years. With this score for Geneva the local college presents a most unique record of victories over Allegheny this year, having defeated its ancient rival once in foot-ball, twice in basket- ball and once in track.

RUTIPIERFORD GLOVER Perhaps the most noticeable factor in the athletic affairs of Geneva College is the work of Graduate Manager M. R. Glover. Mr. Glover is one of the leading business men in Beaver Falls, and he has a wide acquaintance in the Beaver Valley, Pitts- burgh' and beyond. Mr. Glover has finished his seventh season with the Gold and White. and under his management the Geneva teams have been admirably equipped and cared for, and the athletic finances administrated without a deficit. Last autumn the Board of Trustees secured Mr. Glover to devote his entire time to the management of athletics at Geneva. l-leretofore our indefatigable manager had conducted a large confectionery business downtown, and had managed the athletics on the side. This year Geneva has been put in a higher standing in inter-collegiate athletics than ever before. Geneva was the only college in this district able to book both Princeton and Yale on their holiday basket-ball trip this year. Mr. Glover also secured games with the leading schools of Western Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Eastern Ohio. Besides he entered a Geneva relay team in the Penn relays at Phila- delphia this spring. A glance at the foot-ball schedule for next year will reveal the fact that lVlan- ager Glover is still improving Geneva's position in athletics. It is the fervent hope of all friends of Geneva that lVlr. Glover may be retained for a long time at Geneva, for his personality and business-like methods in maintaining athletics are a priceless asset to Geneva College.

BRIDENBAUGII Our athletic coach is a native of the Keystone State. He was born at Mar- tinsburg, Pa., and received his prelim- N inary education in the public schools there. He spent one year in Altoona lligh School, and completed his preparatory work in Franklin and Marshall Academy. lt was in Franklin and Marshall Acad- emy that Bridenbaugh early exhibited the qualities of a line athlete. He was a member of all the athletic teams of the institution. He ran on the relay team that competed annually in the Penn re- lays. ln 1908 he was a member of the team which won first place in that meet. Having completed his preparatory work in the Academy, he entered Frank- lin and Marshall College. ln that insti- tution he won his letter in foot-ball, bas- ket-ball, base-ball and track. ln addition i to this he was prominent in the gymna- sium classes and took part in many exhibitions. Following his graduation he was elected to teach in the department of mathe- matics, and to coach the athletic teams of Oberlin Academy, where he remained one year. For two years following this he was coach at Kiskiminetas Springs school at Saltsburg, where he turned out many stars, among whom were several who later were members of the undefeated University of Pittsburgh foot-ball team. The past five years Mr. Bridenbaugh has spent in Beaver Falls, two as mathe- matics instructor and coach in Beaver Falls High School, and the other three as coach at Geneva. No one conversant with Coach Bridenbaugh's splendid record needs to be told that this man possesses a keen knowledge of all sports, and has all the requisites of a wonderful mentor. ln his work here at Geneva he has given added proofof his wonderful ability in turning out winning teams, and in fostering in his men a high ideal of sportsmanship. Wherever a Geneva team goes, the reputation of our coach makes it a team to be respected and feared. ln the few years that Coach Bridenbaugh has been with us, he has gained the conhdence and support of the entire student body, faculty and the friends of the college. A school to succeed must have athletics, to win honorably it must have clean athletics, and a coach such as this one, who can produce winning teams that can command respect as well as fear, is a priceless asset. Our hope is that he may be kept at Geneva for many years to come.

The location of the college is particularly fitted for this type of work. ln a com- munity such as this there is usually quite a number of persons who are not in a position to attend the regular week day sessions, but who are interested in the kind of work that is carried on in a college of this sort. lt is for this class that the Ex- tension work is offered, and from this class it draws its students. The beginning of this work was very humble. The enrollment for the first year totalled thirty-one. lts growth also has been slow. The enrollment for the present year will total forty-two. lts humble beginning was very largely due to the fact that its inception and organization was the fruit of the effort of but one or two mem- bers of the College Faculty, and not the college organization as a whole. lts slow growth has been due to a number of factors. liirst, the whole-hearted backing of the college authorities had to be secured. Then. the people who could be benefitted by this type of work had to be convinced of its value for them. The war turned the attention of many such into other lines. The regular college teachers were already pretty heavily loaded so that little time and energy could be given to the extension work. ln spite of its slow growth, this branch of the college gives promise of becoming one of the most worth-while activities of the institution. Already many of the reg- ular day students who desire to work their way through school find an opportunity of taking part of their work in the Extension Department, thus leaving a certain portion of each day free to do gainful work. Also as the number of students en- rolled in this department grows the work will become better known. and further growth result. Quite a few have already been graduated who did the great part of their work in the lfxtension Department. This fact gives encouragement to many others to enter in and to continue until the course is completed. The organization of this department is but a move in the direction of making the college serve the community in which it is located as far as lies in its power. Thus far two main classes have been helped through this department. The first class consists of teachers who are anxious to improve themselves and advance in their profession. The largest part of the enrollment thus far has been from this class. The second class consists of young people who are unable for financial rea- sons to g.,o to college in regular day session, and who can attend the ni tht sessions. As the Education courses are expanded to meet the growing needs of teachers, in- creasing numbers of them will be found who will take advantage of the opportunity afforded to get work at night in this study. lixpansion of courses in other depart- ments will also attract increasing numbers of the second class mentioned. Those who get their education through the Extension Department deserve the greatest encouragement. lt is difficult after working all day to spend one's evenings at study. Besides they miss much of the social life that gives to college days their greatest attractiveness. To keep on in spite of weariness and absence of such amelioration as is furnished by the social side of college life is the mark of strength of purpose. l-I. H.

For some weeks l have been the innocent victim of repeated attempts on the part of certain girls to vamp me. Until recently l simply ignored them or else frustrated their evil designs by looking cross-eyed at them with a cold and stony stare. But one of the more attractive vamps having caught me unawares, nudged her companion under the spare rib with her elbow, grinned eloquently, and then winked at me. Before l thought l winked back. Really, john, l was so fussed l could have bit my linger nails. lmmediately, how- ever, I realized my horrible mistake, so l rebuked her with a look that would freeze an oyster then went to my room and had a good cry. Did l do right? How can l protect myself from these designing women? Earl li. Answer- My poor boy, you did perfectly right. My heart goes out to you in sympathy. So must we all guard ourselves against these feminine attacks. l bet you were a pretty baby, Earl. Tell your mamma if the girls persist in bothering you. Dear john: I U . What can l put on my mustache to make it grow? l have tried Pitk1n's l'lLllI' Tonic and Bowker's Fertilizer but as yet results are discouraging. Will-l marry early or late? What qualities should l look for in a girl? l beg you, show me the right path, john Tippin. A n swe r- You look just too sweet for anything with a mustache, Waldo. lf all other fertilizers fail l suggest that you clip the bristles off a hair brush and having insert- ed them carefully in the pores of the epidermis cement them in place with library paste. Don't worry, son, you will marry sooner or later. lf you can't find one to suit you now, remember that there is a nice crop of young ones coming on. As for me, the shortest way to my heart is through my stomach. This is the first quality to be looked for in a girl-can she fry your daily ham and eggs? j.
