The Drudge Bv William Lowe Bryan. IT is unhappily true, that many good and useful men are forced by cir- cumstances to work at one thing, while their hearts are tugging to be at something else. They have not chosen their tasks. They have been driven by necessity. There must be bread. There are the wife and the children. There is no escape. It is up with the sun. It is bearing the burden and heat of the day. It is intolerable weariness. It is worse than that. It is tramping round and round in the same hated steps until you cannot do anything else. You cannot think of anything else. They sound in your dreams those treadmill steps arousing echoes of bitterness and rebellion. You cannot escape from yourself. You cannot take a vaca- tion. You may grow rich and travel far and spend desperately, but the baleful music will follow you to the end, the music of the work you did in hate. This is the tragedy of drudgery, not that you spend your time and strength at it, but that you lose yourself in it. But at the worst this man is no such poverty stricken soul as the crank, the tramp at the jack-of-all-trades. If his occupations were worth while, those hated habits are far from deserving hate. If the}- are habits by which a man may live, by which one may give a service that other men need and pay for, their value is certified from the sternest laboratory. The drudge has a right to respect himself. He has the right to the respect of other men and I give mine without reserve. I say that he, who holds him- self grimly for life to a useful common-place work which he hates, is heroic. It is easy to be heroic on horseback. To be heroic on foot in the duty, lost in the crowd, with no applause, that is the heroism which ha - borne up and carried forward all the work of civilization. The Drudge By William Lowe Bryan.

The Hoosier University A PEOPLE who, by the strength of their arms and the stability of their character, created from dense forests and unpopulated fields a great commonwealth rich in material things and known to dis- tant parts for the products of its minds, is the Hoosier people. A people that has marched ever forward in steady progress while others talk of progressivism ; a people who move with a unity of action. The work of Hoosier brawn cleared the way for the work of Hoosier brain, which has made itself a living part of literature, art, politics, education, and all the branches of science. Yet, with all his accomplishments, the Hoosier is a man of home. While the people of other States are loyal, the Hoosier loves his soil with a passion that ever remains wherever future residence may take him. Anyone who answers to the same proud name is his neigh- bor and welcome to his goods. And Indiana University is the Hoosier University. It, too, had the humblest beginning, passed through the stern- est difficulties, and emerged a great university on the high road to still greater success. On her wide campus today, as on her smaller one of former years, there is no aristocracy of birth or wealth, and if one there be, it is an aristocracy of individual worth and proven ability. Theodore Clement Steele O ER in Brown Count}- where Na- ture paints the In- diana skies and the Indi- ana hills with the most delicate brush, there works a master. His name is Theodore Clement Steele. In turn, with a delicate brush he transports the wonders of nature that lie ' ' w I - before his eyes onto canvas to be viewed by men where- ever they are and whatever time the} ' live. Born in Indiana, he was educated abroad and returned to paint his own State. A thousand beau- ties which we have passed by, he has seen and made permanent. This is the work of an artist. It has been remarked that the Indiana school of artists, no less than her men of letters, holds high rank in this country only because of merit. Nlany honors have come to him and great praise has been showered upon him, but Mr. Steele is as the Indiana people think him to be, a citizen and modest gentleman of fine and scholarly tastes, who is inclined to shrink from public praise. However, it is well that his merits be recognized. So Indiana University at the 1916 commencement admitted him to academic fellowship by conferring upon him the degree of Doctor of Laws. The following beautiful tribute to Mr. Steele was made by President W. L. Bryan inconferring the degree: He was born nearby, in Owen County. He was educated as a painter in Munich. He did not, like Sargent and W ' hi.stler, leave America to live in Europe. He returned to Indiana. He painted E r a n k 1 i n County. He painted Brown County, He painted parts of south- ern Indiana in everv month of the year, in every kind of weather, under a thousand different exquisite skies. He revealed the thrilling beauty that plays over our home land every day of the year. His art has been recognized by those who know. He has won prizes in high competition. He has served in three international juries for the acceptance of American paintings for exhibitions in Paris, St. Louis and San Fran- cisco. He has received the highest honors which can come to a painter in America, — election as associate member of the National Academy of Design. He is one of those who have come up from among us to learn from the academic East and then to do line things out of their own genius at home. He was born in Owen County. He works as Master in Brown County. And now, Theodore Clement Steele, this University which lives to find the upward ways for this people. Joyfully invites you to fellowship. By the direction of the Faculty and Board of Trustees of Indiana Uni- versity, I confer upon you the degree Doctor of Laws. - w ' ' ' ' - ' • « « fj3 fc j ' — ' S i T-A . i wt • . . ■m ■ Wk L t-; - j.

Once more the axe descended; day by day The clearings broadened, work was mixed with play. Again we heard the chorus of the pack, Lusting to kill, but ever driven back; Adown the corduroy the oxcart came; The swamps were drained, and cities rose to fame. Two rails were laid, and through the thicket broke A magic monster, wreathed in lurid smoke. Troubles there were, avd ruin all about. But Hoosier courage put them all to rout. Insidiious snares, encircling bit by bit, Were met and torn apart by Hoosier wit. Full days of peace and plenty, wondrous cheer, And years of war, to make the goal more dear.

Avd iwcv, with flag. ; of glory draped, The century ' s monuments greet the dawn, The curtain falls, the passing years move ARBUTU5 ; The Story of the Pageant A MIGHTY spectacle was enacted on Indiana ' s campus last spring which brought a breath of the past to sweeten memories for those whose work is almost done, and suggested a f)rophesy of the future to awaken ideals and am- bitions in those whose work is yet to be. The Pageant of Bloomington and Indiana Uni- versity was the iirst of the series of historical pageants given over the State in 1916 in cele- bration of Indiana ' s centennial year, and was taken as a model for those that followed. The presentations were given May 16, 17 and 18 and again May 20 of 1916. The last perform ' - ance was by special request and was taken complete in moving pictures. INIr. William Chaun- cey Langdon, who has given his life to this art, was the writer and director of our pageant. Six months he spent in preparation for the opening one hundredth anni- versary celebration. The result was the work of an artist; both a great outdoor drama in portrayal of the past, and a delicate suggestion of the glory of Indiana ' s future toward which all the characters march at the end of the last episode. More than 1 ,000 characters, including Governor Samuel M. Ralston and President William L. Bryan of the University, completed the cast. In nine episodes the pageant portrayed the events of local history from the coming of the first settlers in 1818, through the period of whiskey-barrel politics in early Indiana, the lickin and larnin ' days of Hoosier school- ing, and through Civil War times up to the founding of the Bloomington Chamber of Commerce. Interwoven with the realistic scenes were danc- ing, pantomime, and massed choral and orchestral effects to show symbol- ically the essential thought and achievement of Hoosiers during one hundred years. Three hundred University students took part in the danc- .angdo Page Thirty-Thn iQ±7 ARBUTU5; ing, and the University orchestra of forty-five pieces furnished the music. Dr. Charles Diven Campbell, Professor of Music in Indiana University, wrote the entire musical score for the pageant. All the scenes, properties, characters, and in some cases even the dia- logue, were painstaking true to the past, as revealed in available historical documents. Long-Tom squirrel rifles, coach horns, an ox-team hitched to an old hand-made hickory cart, a Conestoga wagon made in North Carolina in 1815, and a hand engine fire fighting apparatus of the sixties were among the things dug up from attics and museums to become prop- erties of the pageant. The identical rifles used at the outbreak of the Civil War by a volunteer company of Indiana University students to repel Morgan ' s raiders were in the hands of those who portrayed their parts. The parts of those who made Indiana history during its one hundred years of statehood were taken by their de- scendants in almost every case. The man who carried the stars and stripes for the volunteer company and the woman who presented him with the flag were present to see this dramatic incident of their lives re-enacted. Approximately 10,000 people, com- ing from many distant points, wit- nessed the performances. 191Z 12S5480 Indiana 8 New Gipmnasium ARBUTU5: The New Gymnasium IT WAS at the Basketball Tournament two years ago that President William L. Bryan stepped onto the platform and announced the deci- sion of the Board of Trustees to erect a new gymnasium for Indiana University. This announcement, which brought a realization of the University ' s greatest desire and hope as well as need, acted as the opening of a dam on the students in the room where a spontaneous outburst of cheering arose. Since then a magnilicent structure of white limestone was gradually raised from the ground, until now, a finished building, it dominates the surrounding neighborhood from the top of the slope on which it rests. No longer must Indiana endure the cramped quarters of the old frame gymnasium which has handicapped Crimson athletics for over a score of years. On October 23, 1915, the faculty and student body marched to the site of the new Gymnasium and cleared the ground for the building. A few days later the ground-breaking was held by the University body. Work began in earnest about the first of 1916, and the first athletic contest to be pla -ed on its floor was a basketball game, won by Indiana over Iowa, January 19, 1917. 191Z ARBUTU5; IQiZ ARBUTU5; The new gymnasium is in the Tudor Gothic style. The building itself is 240 feet by 328 feet, facing the west, and forming the west end of the athletic field which is to be constructed in the near future. On the west of the building are two main entrances leading into wide corridors, at the end of which are stairs to the basement and second floor. These corridors will also lead to the large indoor field to be constructed at the back of the G}Tnnasium. The building was erected at a cost of $250,000. The Gymnasium floor is 190 feet long by 90 feet wide. It occupies the central part of the second floor. Special measures have been taken Page Thirty-Seven 1917 ARBUTU5; Pasc Tliirty-EiRht 1917 ARBUTU5 ' arsity Team Room to make this apartment well lighted and ventilated. The room is opened to the roof, which is supported by steel trusses. The walls are of a light buff colored brick. The old trouble of inadequate room for the crowds at basketball games is entirely eliminated now. Balconies are constructed at each end of the room in such a position as to give an excellent view of the floor below, and comfortable bleachers are placed about the side lines, which, with the balcony, makes a seating capacity for 2,500 people. The varsity and freshman team rooms are located on opposite ends of the first floor. The rooms have special lockers and shower baths for the use of the athletes. The well lighted, well equipped and roomy quarters to be enjoyed by Crimson athletes of the present and future is in strong IQIZ ARBUTU5 191Z ARBUTU5 Shower Room contrast to those from which they have just passed, and are among the things that mark a better day for Indiana athletics. The swimming pool is located on the first floor. The room is 114 feet long by 52 feet wide and the pool is 90 feet by 30 feet. There is space in this room to construct seats accommodating about two hundred spec- tators. The pool is lined with white tiling. This room is fast becoming one of the most popular features of the new Gymnasium, and varsity and freshman swimming teams have already been organized. Swimming will probably be put on an intercollegiate basis within a short time. Some good material has already been discovered. Between the room which encloses the swimming pool on the west side of the building and the main locker room on the east side, is the main shower room. Twenty-four showers are placed here. It is lined with white tile also. The locker room contains a sufficient number of lockers for all the men of the University. P.ige Forty-One 191Z ARBUTU5; The Trophy Room This is the room where Indiana stores the scalps of its foes won on the lield of combat by the Crimson teams. The Trophy Room is located on the north end of the second floor of the building. This is one of the most beautiful features of the new structure. The woodwork and the heavy hanging baskets of the inverted lighting system give evidence of an elegance of taste, and the open fire-place at the end of the room adds a touch of home-like comfort to the scene. The room is not yet furnished, and the trophies have not been moved from their present resting place in the ea.st parlors of the Student Building. This will be done immediately. After this room is prepared in the way that is intended it will become a general lounging place for the men of the University and it is e.xpected that Crimson athletes will make this room their second home. Page Forty-Two 1917 ARBUTU5; l r The Future THE above picture presents a glimpse into the future. When the Board of Trustees decided to erect the new Gymnasium they in- cluded in their decision that an indoor field should be built in connection with it, joining itself to the rear of the building proper. Since then, however, so much more money had to be expended on the building than was originally expected, that it was found inadvisable to complete the indoor field at this time. It has not been given up; its erection has only been postponed. The building has been pushed up according to the plans providing for the indoor field. Whenever the Board of Trustees feel in position to build it, it will be erected at the rear of the Gymnasium along the line shown in the picture where the rough stone and the light buff brick meet. The brick portion will be one of the walls of the indoor field. Doors have been built which will lead from the building proper into the field when it is completed. Our new Gymnasium, as it is now, is one for which we need make no apology. One can visit many a college and university and not find a gymnasium that in any way compares with ours. A piece of massive beauty on the outside, the interior possesses a mark of distinction along with the evidences of the useful purpose it is to serve. But when the in- door field is erected in its proper place at the rear of the building Indiana University will be equipped with the best. 191Z; ARBUTU5 Soldiers of Indiana A time there was when mighty armies marched Across the playroom floor, and fought, and died ; Or sailed the hearth-rug sea to alien shores And there laid waste a happy countryside. ' A time there was when in a well-thumbed text I met again the hosts that Caesar knew; Or heard the clamor and the cries that rang Across the fateful field of Waterloo. But soon my soldiers turned to bits of lead; My sliips, dismantled, fed the cookstove ' s flames; And all the martial minds my schoolbooks told Became forgotten phantoms, empty names. Today I left the Land of Make Believe, Came back to actual things, and found again My boyhood ' s idols turned to flesh and blood, Wearing the khaki, classmates and college men. A. B. 191Z Indiana UniVersitp Soldiers on the Mexican Border ARBUTU5: War Times A GLIMPSE into what war means to the men in the field and those who stay at home was given to those who were enrolled in the summer session last year. Only a few days after the session had commenced the order was given for all national guardsmen to mobilize, and within a short time campus and city was peopled with khaki clad men, our schoolmates. Many were already in far off states, where they had gone for summer employment, but all returned in answer to the call. Those days seemed a repetition of the Civil War times described by our grandparents. We realized these were not such stressful times for us as had been experienced in our history, but nevertheless, when going to classes we met soldiers in the uniform of the Indiana National Guard with guns over their shoulders marching through the campus in military order; with every issue of the papers bringing news making us more cer- tain that they would be marching off under the stars and stripes; going to bed with the sounding of the bugle and hearing its notes again when tirst waking — we were at least able to appreciate the seriousness of such occasions first-hand. Then we went to class, and a seat which the day before had been occupied by a companion was vacant. When the pro- fessor called his name another replied, He has answered the call of his country, sir, and the smile which greeted this was not altogether one of mirth. Next came the day of entraining. x s the long file of familiar faces marched by to board the trains, the impulse of the man on the plat- form was to fall in line. All thought then that it would be only a matter of days before they would be forming another company to go, and our schoolmates were these men. We followed their actions closely: dur- ing the time they were at Fort Benjamin Harrison, on their way to the border and their experiences there. Indiana University had the honor to be represented by three units in service on the Mexican border, Com- pany I, the First Regimental Band and the Hospital Corps, all were recruited from Universitv students. 191Z APRUTU5: The Story of Company ' T ' Co: !5 '  ' ?f Jot kOMPANY I, First Regiment, Indiana National Guard, was mustered into the service May 2, 1916. Seventy Indiana University students were enrolled in this unit at the time of its organization, with the Rev. T. R. White, Presbyterian Student Pastor, as cap- tain, and Dr. K. P. Williams, Assistant Profes- sor of Mathematics, as lirst lieutenant. The company was required to meet once a week for drill out of two regular drill periods. June 19, 1916, Captain White received or- ders to mobilize the company, and on June 24, Company I, together with the other Indiana University military units, entrained for Indian- apolis, where they remained at Fort BenjamiTi Harrison until they were ordered to the Mex- ican border, July 11, 1916. The First Indiana was stationed at Llano Grande, Texas, and here Company I remained with the snakes and Greasers for the rest of the summer. The company was returned to Indianapolis, September 23, 1916, under the ruling con- cerning student units and was mustered out of the Federal service, October 3, 1916. The next day they were in Bloomington, and the weekly convo- cation hour was given over to a welcoming exercise for the University ' s soldiers of the Army of the Rio Grande. Dr. E. H. Lindley acted as chairman of the meeting. Alumni Secretary R. V. Sollitt spoke for the alumni and Harry P. Schultz extended the welcome in behalf of the stu- dents. First Sergeant Ralph F. Kurtz responded for the soldiers. 1917; ARBUTU5; Company Roll AS R, WHITE Sergeant RALPH E. KURTZ Richard G. Scribner Byron T. Post Henry R. Springer Cyrus A. Hay Elmer Wray Archie D.

The Band THE Indiana University Band was mustered into tlie Indiana National Guard three years ago and was named the First Regi- mental Band of the Indiana National Guard. The band was made a military unit largely through the work of T. J. Louden, who was at the time Colonel of the First Regiment of the I. N. G. Tlie band grew in numbers and efficiency when it became a military unit until it received an excellent rating from United States Army Inspector Captain John J. Toffey, Jr., U. S. A. In his inspection of the band, February 15, 1916, he gave it the highest rating of any military unit in the State of Indiana. Carl F. Brand filled the position of chief musician. Like the members of Company I, the band musicians were scattered in many distant points when the order to mobilize came in June last year. They entrained, went to the border and returned to Indianapolis at the same time with Company I, but they were mustered out of the Federal service a few days earlier than the men of the company. The band members were released September 26, 1Q17, and most of them returned to enter the University the next day. While at Fort Benjamin Harrison, before leaving for the border, the band made Indiana the most popular song at the camp. 191Z APBUTU5; Top Row — JIcCool, Brigham, Hepbui Bottom Ro — McHenrv, Bailev, Palfr Schwarz, Ross (First Lieutenant), Wright, French, McCIure.

Hospital Corps THE third unit which represented Indiana University on the Mex- ican border was die Hospital Corps of the Second Regiment, I. N. G. Dr. Frank HoUand, of Bloomington, was in command with the rank of captain. The enrollment of the detachment was largely made up of medical students of the University. Before it was called to the serv- ice regular drill periods were held and occasional week end hikes were taken to give the men a touch of a soldier ' s life. The order for the Hos- pital Corps to move came at the same time as that affecting Compan - I and the band. On the same day with these units, the corps entrained for Fort Benjamin Harrison, and remained there until the date of departure for the Mexican border. The Hospital Corps was the last of the Univer- sitv units to be returned to Indianapolis to be mustered out. It was not included in the special ruling under which Company I and the band were returned in the fall. It was not until February 9, 1917, that the Corps reached Indianapolis with the Second Regiment. 191Z ARBUTU5; Preparations W H I L E the U n i V e rsity units were in Bloomington before mobilizing at Fort Benjamin Harrison the time was spent in drill- ing and preparing the men for the duties of a soldier in the field. Long hours were spent on Jordan Field each day mastering not only the form but the tech- nu[ue of military drill. At 5:30 o ' clock in the morning, the work of the day began and at 5 :30 each evening the University soldiers performed the ceremony of retreat on the public square. This consisted in the lowering of the flag on the south side of the court house lawn, while the band played and the bugles sent forth their blast. At almost any time in the day, the citizen was kept reminded of the militant trend of the times. If there were not straight columns of kakhi-clad men marching in military formation through the streets, he would hear from some distant part of the city the stirring notes of a bugle which carried some message to those versed in its language. The men for the most part were cjuartered at the various organization houses. They ate at the Plrst Presbyterian Church, where their food was prepared by the regular company cooks. sfe ii l : lOlZ ARBUTU5; Life on the Border NEWSPAPER reports gave the people back home two views of the soldiers ' life on the Mexican border last summer. On one hand it was a case of sharing tents with snakes, lizards and big spiders; living afloat on a sea of mesquite with no canopy between their baked heads and a merciless sun, except when the heavens mobilized all its vapor from an unseen reservoir and emptied it in torrents to drench the camp and everything in it. But we were also told of the little side lights of a soldier ' s life; of the opportunity they had of improving their bodies; of the facilities that were provided for the entertainment of the men; and of the school in patriotism that the camp consisted of in itself without any teacher. But those who were there, in addition to their stock of stories that will last the rest of their college career, say that the life on the border was neither as bad nor as good as those who were not there have been led to think. They look upon it as a novel and somewhat pleasant experience; not a picnic and not a life of drudgery. There were numerous bugbears in that life on the border. First call was one of them. First call was the prince of bugbears. It sounded every morning before sun-rise, often while the moon was yet shining. It said Get up! Get up! Get up! And get up the soldiers did, everyone down to the last of the ten thousand. First call was universally and most cordially despised. Among other bugbears was drill. To this joyous pastime about four hours a day was devoted. Then there were those long hikes through miles of adhesive Texas mud. Also those rigid inspections that could have been discontinued and never missed b} ' anyone. But all was not one grind after another. As it had a dark side, it also had a sunny side. Within a stone ' s throw of the camp there were three moving picture shows. In addition, there were ice-cream parlors, soft drink concessions and shooting galleries. Most wonderful of all W :U 191Z ARBUTU5; there was a regular barber shop with real Itarbers inside making it possible to pro- N ' . ,. _ i _ fMW ' - ' ' ' 1 civilized shave ever and anon. ' ■ I ' j5 ' ' Mj Sometimes, especially when the soldiers . vVW ] ;j [ j o money to spend, they would ram- ble over to the spacious army Y. I. C. A. building. There they could write let- ters, read magazines or play checkers un- til Taps. On the whole, the conclu- k iM tt Hi ' ' ' reached by the University ' s soldiers IHeB - Wwrt flil ' three units that represented her -  ► f 1 fr border last summer, is that they -- T I 1. A g thankful to Uncle Sam because of the wider scope this border life gave them. Although the guardsmen were not called upon to tight Greasers, they stocked up on enough snake yarns, and yarns of other sorts, to last through many a pipe and fireside evening. And they tell them so realistically that their hearers cannot help but let! that it would be an uncomfortable experience to wake in the morn- ing and tind that they had been sleeping with a friendly reptile who had tired of sleeping in holes like his kind and craved human companionship. But it was hard to believe that our friends could grow so attached to these creatures as to never wish them to be out of sight. Then they described the land of all good things when they said tobacco was so cheap that no one cared for it. That re- mincled us that we had sent a box of cigars to a friend at Christmas. These men declare that this exf:)erience will always remain with them. They hold it an incident of pride that they have been soldiers of Uncle Sam and have hel[)ed defend the nation ' s borders from outlaw attacks. When the time comes again that arms are needed to enforce the country ' s rights there will be a little group of Indiana University men who will be read}- to offer services in an expert man- ner. 191Z ARBUTU5; The woter s f ii 191Z ARBUTU5; Mjy - te BaS= ' iJ--, ' -l ' «« BiiaBiiuiiitt - ' I - hr-: 1917 APBUTU5; Foundation Day, 1917 THE Foundation Day exercise , which are held annually near Janu- ar - 20, call for a serious retrospect of the path over which our l niversitv has passed. Our minds are carried back to January 20, 1820, when the act establishing the old Indiana Seminary was ap- proved. We see the first students approaching the little building when its doors were opened in May, 1824. Then in 1828 the standing of the institution was raised to a college, and in 1838 it was dignified by the name of Indiana University. There passes before our mind as a great pageant, the loss of the old college by fire, the difficulty of securing funds to maintain the University at one time, the removal of the University to its present campus, the addition of departments and schools, ever widen- ing the University ' s scope of power and influence, the increased acres of the campus, the growth in number of students and professors, until we come to the present. .A. contemplation of the past brings visions of the future. On Foun- dation Day, 1917, the future Indiana appeared to us greater and grander than we had ever seen her before. During the last few vears, the Uni- =1917 ARBUTU5; versity has been casting off from its old moorings and emerging with the characteristics of a great University. The greatest monu- ment to this progress is the mag- nilicent new Gymnasium. The lirst contest ever played in it was the Indiana-Iowa basketball game, won by the Crimson, which was ' played on the evening of the Foun- dation Day celebration this year. The celebration of the University ' s ninety-seventh birthday was marked by the appearance of Dr. Romulo S. Naon, ambassador from the Republic of Argentina to the United States, who delivered the principal address of the day on Pan-Americanism. Friday, January 19, wa.-; declared a holiday and the day was devoted to the exercises. Promptly at Q:15 a. m., the students assembled by classes and schools at various meeting places and began the procession about the campus to the old Gymnasium, where the exercises were held. The chimes pealed forth the Hymn to Indiana, which was followed by Gloriana, Frangipana from the band. Speakers, trustees and facult}- assembled at the west par- lors of the Student Building and reviewed the long procession as it marched by. After the procession had entered the Gymnasium, the fac- ulty, led by Dr. Bryan and Dr. Naon, marched down the aisle. As they passed by, the students arose and gave an enthusiastic ovation to the South American diplomat. The exercises were conducted according to the special Foundation Day order of exercises, written for the University by Dr. Charles D. Camp- bell, of the Music Department, and William C. Langdon, pageant master last year. Dr. Bryan presided at the exercises. At the close. Dr. Ervan and Ambassador Naon led the recessional march from the Gymnasium while the students remained standing until the faculty had passed out of the building. The festivities began with the presentation of The Importance of Being Ernest on the evening of January 18. The play was pro- duced under the direction of Pro- fesor E. G. Frazier and acted by his class in the .staging of plays. At noon Friday, members of the faculty and guests of the Univer- sity assembled in the commons for a luncheon in honor of Dr. Naon. At 3:30 o ' clock the annual Bryan Prize discussion was held. r.igc Fifty-Si3 191Z ARBUTU5 Indianapolis Alumni Banquet THE Indiana University Association of Indianapolis gave a banquet in honor of Ambassador Naon in the R iley Room of the Claypool Hotel, on the evening of January 18, before his departure for Bloomington, where he delivered the Foundation Day address the next day. Over three hundred guests were present at the banquet. They in- cluded prominent men of the State and their wives and professional men interested in South American trade. A number of Indiana graduates in . the legislature, then in session, were also at the banquet. Frank C. Daily, an alumnus of Indiana, acted as toastmaster. Speakers at the banquet included Ambassador Naon, Governor J. P. Goodrich and President W. L. Bryan. Twenty-six members of the University glee club sang at the banquet. They sang a number of college songs, and as these were sung, the men who were present from those colleges arose and sang the song with the club. Ambassador Naon may be seen at the speakers ' table, the tenth person from the right end. 191Z ARBUTU5; The Alumni Office ONE of the greatest marks of a Univer- sity ' s strength is the strength of its alumni body. The relations between one and his alma mater consti- tute continuous ties. It cannot be said that as soon as one has passed from the station of an undergradu- ate to that of an alumnu , he no longer has any obli- gations to his University, nor the University any in- terest in him. Rather it is true that as an alumnus the individual begins a period in which he should serve his University most, for he is in better position to do so. Indiana University has recognized these lasting re- lationships, and three years ago secured an alumni sec- retary through whom the University and the alumni may move in common ac- tion. The man selected is Ralph V. Sollitt, ' 11. The office of the alumni secretary is located on the tirst floor of Maxwell Hall. Largely through the energetic and efficient work of this man since he has taken charge, the alumni of Indiana University have come to realize their importance as such and to understand what a powerful body they constitute. There is not a county in the State without its Associa- tion of Indiana University Alumni and Former Students and these make themselves felt as an active force in the life of the various communities. A great amount of correspondence is carried on in keeping the alumni in touch with each other. It is one of the most important dutie of the alumni office to advertise University events among the alumni. Mr. Sol- litt conducted one of the best publicity campaigns that Indiana has ever seen for the Washington and Lee-Indiana football game at Indianapolis two years ago, and repeated it again last fall for the Tufts game, when IQIZ ARBUTU5; the Crimson crossed the eastern invaders ' goal line for the lirst time of the year. Foun- dation Day means a lot of work for this office. Each of the local alumni associa- tions over the State holds meetings one week before Foundation Day which is addressed by a member of the faculty sent for that purpose. Again at commencement it is the alumni secretary who directs the class re- unions and takes charge of the many details that present themselves at this general meet- ing of the alumni. The official publication of the Alumni Association is the Alumni Quarterly, which is considered one of the best alumni papers published by the graduates of any school. Ir. Sollitt also is its editor. The official name of the association was changed last spring to the Indiana Univer- sity Association of Alumni and Former Students. The change was made on the grounds that there are hundreds of loyal men and women who have been unavoidably prevented from finishing their college courses, and it was felt that these should be placed on the same basis with the alumni. Mr. Sollitt is now engaged in compiling a Register of Former Students similar to the Register of Graduates. 1 1 1 HHH MH I IPg 191Z ARBUTUJ; Recreational Sun ey THE Ex- tension Division of the Univer- sity directed a city-wide recre- ational plan last fall. It was planned that recreational fa- cilities of vari- ous kinds would be provided for every man, w o m a n and child in Bloomington. In order to determine what activities the majority of the people desire, a survey was made by one hundred and sixty volun- teer students and citizens of Bloomington, who visited every home with the purpose of learning what activities were desired in order to report to the Extension Division. Among the activities listed were athletics of all kinds: indoor games, such as chess, billiards and pool: domestic work, such as cooking, sewing, embroidery and millinery: club work, including debating, dramatics and current events: study, such as bookkeeping, stenography, English: industrial arts, such as painting, drawing, manual training and leather work: social, such as folk-dancing and social parties: educational, including lectures, entertainments and motion pictures: and musical entertainment, such as that provided by orchestras, bands and chorus singing. An interesting experiment was tried at the McCalla school. The pupils were given two recess periods each half day. thus providing ten minutes of recreation at the close of each hour of work. Those who con- ducted the experiment found that a higher grade of work results from such a plan. The Extension Division plans increased recreational activities that are designed to give Bloomington citizens the greatest possible advan- tages and to provide a first class laboratory for students in playground work. Beginning next fall the Extension Division, co-operating with the Department of Physical Education and other departments of the Uni- versity, will offer a detailed theoretical and practical course in playground work. The full course will cover a period of two years. In addition to a careful study of playground theory and practice, the course will pro- Page Siny 191Z ARBUTU5; vide work in academic subjects, such as history and mathematics. Such a combination of training carries some very important advantages with it. School superintendents often write for the services of persons who are able to supervise play and recreation in the community and also teach a few subjects. Sometimes such persons are able to secure employment on a yearly basis, by assuming charge of playground and other recre- ational activities during the summer months. The schedule of studies is now mapped out. The work of the first year will be partly theoretical and partly practical. It takes up the fun- damentals of the playground movement and takes up in some detail the problem of recreation as it is met in the United States and other countries. Psychology, physiology, physical education and English are subjects which will come in this part of the general course. During the second half of the first year, students will consider the practical side of the question, in which they will act as assistants at the various playgrounds and com- munity recreational centers in Bloomington. Gymnastics, games, dancing, industrial work, gardening, nature study, story telling, discipline, hygiene and first aid to the injured will make up this part of the general work. With the second year, the course will deal with the planning and secur- ing of recreational facilities; the construction and equipment needed; the selection and training of teachers; and the provision for festivals, pag- eants, tournaments and other aspects of community social development. The practical work will continue in advanced form. From this outline it is to be seen that the course is really one in community welfare, for it deals with community music and dramatics, as well as community ath- letics and physical education. 1917 ARBUTU5 The Placement Bureau INDIANA University maintains a Placement Bureau to assist three classes of persons to find positions. First, recent graduates of the University who are looking for ward to going into business, journalism or public service; secondly, alumni and former students who have had experience since leaving school and who are qualified to fill more responsi- ble positions; and in the third place, students who wish temporary em- ployment during the summer vacations. Dr. William A. Rawles is direc- tor of the bureau, which is now only in its second year. In spite of the short time it has been in operation, however, it has been ver}- successful. It has the record that every member of the senior class last year who filed an application succeeded in getting a position after his graduation. From other sources it has been learned that a number of these men have alread}- been promoted, and all are doing well. The Placement Bureau is founded upon the belief that the obliga- tion of the University to her students does not cease with their graduation, but that there is the further responsi bility to assist them to fit themselves for their proper places in society. Often, one of the biggest problems that stares the newly dignified graduate in the spring is what he is going to do with all his education he has spent four years and more or less money in getting. For these students who have not continually had a definite object in mind, the Placement Bureau will take into consideration the gifts of the individual and prevent him from wasting them on something for which he is not fitted. This institution is fast becoming one of the most important departments on the campus. Then— tlu- f..l(l World 191Z ARBUTU5: The University Christmas Tree FOR the first time on any college campus, so far as is known, the In- diana University body, as one great family, gathered around its Christmas tree on the evening of December 19. The pine tree near the west end of Biology Hall was lighted with hundreds of vari-colored electric bulbs. While the words of the famous Holy Night rang out over the campus, students and faculty members assembled about their tree. Santa Claus was there and distributed Christmas greetings in the form of beautiful eight-page programs, printed in red and green with a Christmas design. On the inside pages were the words of three Christ- mas songs to be sung by the audience with the accompaniment of the University Orchestra, and with the assistance of a chorus from the com- bined men ' s and girls ' glee clubs. Mrs. Alice D. Goss was the originator of the idea, which was as unique as it was appropriate. As soon as the idea was suggested to President Bryan, he appointed her chairman of a general committee to take charge of the affair, and urged everyone to attend in the Christmas spirit. The ceremony proved successful. Around this great tree the binding cords of our common brotherhood drew u ' to a deeper understanding of the whole meaning of Christmas. 1917 ARBUTU5 A Milestone ON Friday, November 17, 191(), the number of students in actual attendance in Indiana University was brought to tlie two thou- sandth mark for the first time in the history of the institution. William Penn Nash, of Sharpsville, was the student who brought the en- rollment to two thousand. The attendance reached the one thousand mark in the spring of 1905 and on that occasion a photograph was taken in the Registrar ' s office as the student enrolled. That day was regarded as a milestone in the progress of the University. .A picture was also taken of the two thousandth student as he took out his card. Both of these pictures are in the files of the l ' niversit . Tiie second milestone was reached in the comparatively short period of eleven years, giving evidence of the period of growth Indiana is now experiencing. Page Sixty-Four 191Z ARBUTU5 IN MEMORIAM Ralph N. Ruddell J. Harold Schuler Fred P. Miller 191Z ARBUTU5 Ralph N. Ruddell RALPH N. RUDDELL lost his life in an automobile accident, June lo, 1916. He was born at Robinson, Illinois, and attended the public schools there. He graduated from the Robinson High School in 1912, and entered Indiana University in the fall of 1913 where lie intended to pursue the study of medicine. Rudd, as he was commonly known, was a student, friend, and a gentleman. His sunny disposition was remembered by all who came in contact with him. Through sunshine and rain his mood never changed; and his character was an inspiration to all his comrades. Who is there who can forget, or be insensible to the nameless graces, and various traits of character such as his short life had cultivated? By his modesty, generosity and hospitality he held the respect of his friends, and the affection of those about him. He gave his life in an honest effort to do a little deed of kindness for another. He was held in the highest respect by his instructors and classmates in the medical school. His work was characterized by the conscientious- ness and thoroughness that give evidence of one ' s ambition to lead in his profession. He was a member of the Dalethian Club and the Plii Chi medical fraternity. He was twenty-two years old at the time of his death. IQIZ; ARBUTU5; 191Z ARBUTU5; J. Harold Schuler J HAROLD SCHULER died in the Methodist Hospital at Indian- apolis, October 4, 1916, just one month after the day he entered the hospital for an operation for the removal of tonsils. Pneu- monia set in after the operation, causing death. Jack was never strong, but so much grit and determination had he that neither his family nor nearest associates knew in what a weakened condition he was in. Jack was known by practically every student and instructor on the campus. He was one of the moving factors in dramatics at the University; was president of the Garrick Club, and appeared in practically every ama- teur dramatic production that was staged on the campus while he was here. He was president of the Writers ' club and editor-in-chief of its new magazine. He held a position on the Arbutus staff, and would have conducted a column in The Daily Student last fall. On all these things he was working, and planning, and hoping, while suffering great physical pain on the si.ck-bed. All that was rerjuired to enlist his store of energy and bright enthusiasm in any activity was to prove to him that it was best for Indiana University. Jack ' s was one of those faces that death cannot take away. For those who knew him, he has not left the campus; he is seen every day by the work he has done. Jack was not yet twenty-two when he died. He was a member of the Phi Gamma Delta fraternitv. His home was at Wavnetown, Indiana. Page Sixly-F.ighl IQIZ ARBUTU5; 1917 ARBUTU5; Fred P. Miller FRED PAUL MILLER was born January IQ, 1893, at Middletown, Indiana; died November 26, 191 1) at Bloomington. He attended the public schools at Middletown, and in June 1912 graduated with high honors from the Middletown High School. On September 2S, 1912, he entered Indiana University, and attended regularly until the fall of 1913. During the years 1913-1915, he taught in the public schools at Anderson, Indiana. In the fall of 1915, he re- entered the L ' niversity and attended regularly until his untimely death. He would have graduated with the class of 1917. He was in his usual health and good spirits until a few hours before his death at the home of Mrs. S. C. Dodds, -where he was rooming while attending the University. Death was due to acute indigestion. From the time of his entrance into the L niversity, he was a student of the highest rank, and continually carried extra work. His major subject was English, and, just before his death, he was preparing to take up practice-teaching in the Bloomington High School. He was a loyal member of the Phi Delta Theta fraternity. He was of a very sociable disposition and made friends wherever he went. Especially was his popularity marked in his home town, where he was known and loved bv evervone. 191Z ARBUTU5; 1917 ARBUTUJ; a ■Phizzv — Professor of P ep. Page S ;vemy-T« 191Z; The Well House ARBUTU5: Athletics ARBUTU5; Page Seventy- Four 191Z; 1 Ewald O. Stiehm Director of Athletics ii J UMBO STIEHM came to Indiana last fall from the I ' niversity of Nebraska with a string of victories attached to his name. Dur- ing the five years that he was in charge of the Cornhuskers his teams were defeated but twice, then by Minnesota. Stiehm comes with a reputation of being one of the best coaches in the game. A writer in Collier ' s magazine classed him among the first five football coaches in the country. Jumbo is a graduate of the Uni- versity of Wisconsin, where as an undergraduate he won his letter in football, basketball, and track, and was a member of the baseball and tennis teams. As assets to his coaching ability he has his giant physical stature, which gained him his nickname, and a strong, determined per- sonality. The forcefulness of his work at practice, of itself, grounds the fighting spirit in his men. He is a resourceful coach, who gives the impression of always having something up his sleeve, and usually has, which he springs at the proper moment. Coach Stiehm is director of all athletics at Indiana, and takes per- sonal charge of football as head coach. On the ver}- day he appeared on Jordan Field with his men for the first time, he commenced the train- ing of body, and the drilling of spirit and attitude that has made suc- cessful teams for him before. It was Jumbo Stiehm ' s aggregation that crossed Tuft ' s hitherto uncrossed goal line, and it was Stiehm ' s coaching that enabled them to do it. The new director realizes that there are two recjuirements for a suc- cessful athletic season; a strong team and a loyal backing. He was prepared to spend the whole season with the players in order to meet the first, and for the second he issued a statement to the whole student body, on the very first day. The statement was: With the assistance of the student body in the line of spirit, interest, and enforcement of training rules, Indiana should have a strong football team this season. He has laid the foundation for both. Indiana University is back of Jumbo Stiehm for the season of 1917, as they have never been back of a coach before. Page Seventy-Five 1917; ARBUTU5; The New Regime THE year 1916-1917 has ushered in a totally new period in Indiana University athletics. A year that has brought about more big things, with more far reaching effects, with greater promises for the future, than any other period of more than twice its length in the history of the University. The tirst and most important chapter in this story of progress is the completion of the magnificent new Gymnasium. Over on the hill north of Jordan Field the great structure extended its roots deep into the soil, and gradually and steadily grew until now it dominates the whole campus. Then the workmen put on the finishing touches that made the boast of the best gymnasium in the west an actual fact. Every con- venience and every facility was provided ; and not only that, it is a work of beauty within and without. Truly, as the home of future Indiana athletics, it must mean that new records will be written in the days that are to come. Already it has made possible the introduction of a number of new branches of sport, which are in time destined to extend Indiana ' s name to further fields. . new system in the conduct of athletics has been put into practice. Stiehm has been appointed Director of Athletics; a position that makes him responsible for everything athletic concerning the University. Before this year there was no single man to dictate the athletic policies of the University. Each sport had its own coach, who was only responsible 1917 ARBUTU5; for the conduct of that one branch. The new director, however, is in charge of every sport, thus giving a real opportunity for the success of a system to be tested out accurately and fairly. This organizes athletics on a business-like basis as the schools and the departments of the University are organized. Prominent in this new regime in Indiana athletics is the coaching staff. For his assistant in the coaching of football, and coach of baseball, Stiehm selected Ray M. Whisman. Whisman blazed his name all over the West playing football and pitching baseball in his college career, and while coach at Drake College he gave Stiehm at Nebraska some stiff competition. Guy S. Lowman also was in charge of a team that yearly met Stiehm out in the Missouri Valley. He coached at the Kansas Agri- cultural College at Manhattan, Kansas, before coming to Indiana. Stiehm brought him here to coach the freshman team in the fall, and he was afterwards given a permanent position in the Department of Physical Education. He also coached the basketball team. The third member of the new staff is Harvey Cohn, who was brought to Indiana to coach the track athletes. Cohn was formerly an amateur distance runner of note, and he comes here from a coaching position at Colby College, in Maine. But the most striking element in this new day dawning on Indiana athletics is the awakening of the student body to a realization of the part it must play if successful teams will ever be turned out at Indiana. The students are beginning to see that loyalty is not merely a matter of form that expresses itself in cheering and singing at contests, and following the team on its out of town games. Real loyalty consists in the spirit that will not tolerate the violation of training rules on the part of the athletes, and the start is being made now in building up such a spirit at Indiana. Page Seventy-Seven lOlZ ARBUTU5; Intramural Athletics W HEX all the attent i o n i s given to inter- collegiate athletics the training is centered on only a few, and a large part of the student bod}- is left without any m e a n s of improving their bodies. One ob- jection to college ath- letics is the claim that those who are most in need of physical training are left out altogether. But there is no room for this criticism under the system of intramural athletics that was put into operation last year under the directorship of A. H. Berndt. It is the idea of this system to give every student in the University, who wishes, an opportunity to participate in some form of athletic competition. Interclass and interfraternity games and meets in football, baseball, basketball, track, swimming and wrestling have been held during the year. The system has been developed now to the extent that everyone who wishes to take part in some kind of athletic contest can do so. Guy S. Lowman has been in charge of intramural athletics this year. The new Gymnasium has given an impetus to this branch of athletics, as it has to all others at the University. ISIore space and facilities have been placed at the disposal of the contenders and directors. Another advantage of this system lies in the fact that it serves to build up an athletic reserve strength in the University. When intercollegiate athletics is the only form given, the squads must be cut down to a number that can be easily handled. The rest must be discarded, although there may be some among them who might be developed into good material if there was any way of giving them special attention. But where prac- tically the whole student body has had the benefit of some athletic expe- rience, the University is able to maintain a much stronger position in intercollegiate competition. The holes in the ranks are more easily filled. Page Scvcnly-KiRhl 191Z ARBUTU5; Scholar-Athlete George J. Shively, of South Bend, son of the late Senator Shively, and an I man in baseball, was awarded the athletic scholarship medal offered annually by the Western Conference to the athlete of the senior class making the best scholarship mark during his college career. The Con- ference has set aside the money to purchase the medals for one man in each Conference school. The student who is awarded the medal must have received his letter in at least one branch of intercollegiate athletics. Shively was on the varsity baseball team for three years. He was one of Indiana ' s most reliable pitchers, and a good batter. He was elected to Phi Beta Kappa the fall before. The Gimbel Prize Russell G. Hathaway, captain-elect of the 1917 football team, was awarded the Jake Gimbel prize on Foundation Day. The prize is given annually to the student in athletics, of the junior or senior class, who shows the best mental attitude towards ath- letics. Other things taken into considera- tion are merit in habits, college spirit, appli- cation and sincerity. The prize consists of the interest on $500 for one year, and a gold medal. 191Z ARBUTU5 Sigma Delta Psi [ ' HE MEMBERS ( .

PaRe F.ighly-One IQIZ ARBUTU5 New Branches of Sport THE new Gymnasium, and the increase in the coaching staff, has caused an extension of the athletic activities of the University in a number of ways. The most noticeable incident of this widening process is the introduction of a number of branches of sport that had never been given here to any great extent before. The pool in the new building furnishes the facilities for a swimming team, and it was not long until Coach Cohn issued a call for candidates. Soon after, varsity and freshman swimming teams were organized. The sport proved popu- lar, and some excellent talent showed signs of developing before long. Attempts were made to schedule some meets, and it is the present plan to put swimming on an intercollegiate basis next year. The handball courts in the basement of the building have aroused an interest in this form of exercise, and a number of faculty members and students have taken up the game. Boxing also is being given in a systematic way this year for the first time. Under the tutelage of Coach Cohn, a number of candidates are learning to give without receiving blows, and this sport will probably be put on an intercollegiate basis next year along with swimming. A room in the south end of the basement has been reserved these new sports, and the participation of the students in them, will be built within a short time, and still another sport will be thrown open to the students. It is expected that a valuable result of the introduction of these new sports, and the participation of the students in them will be the building of a .strong athletic reserve in the University. Before, train- ing had to be centered on too few of the student body on account of the lack of facilities. Page Eighty-Two 1917; ARBUTU5; The Bleachers COACHES insist that a loyal following is essential to the success of their teachings and the players ' efforts. The players themselves declare that the cheering from the sidelines gives them doubled strength when they are pushing the ball through every resistance; and when they are fighting with the ball on their own three-inch line it is the encouragement of the men on the bleachers that gives them the courage and determination that makes a stonewall of their line. It is the following that never accepts defeat until the last whistle has blown that makes teams of the same quality. The men of the bleachers do not have the honor of fighting for their university in the same way as those on the field, but they feel as deeply and do as much as is in their power to gain the same end. The Indiana bleachers constitute one solid mass of loyalty at an - athletic contest. The student body has supported both successful and unsuccessful teams with equal eagerness, knowing that whatever the result, their players were doing everything in their power, and they must do the same. Special trains to Chicago, Indianapolis and Lafayette for the annual games cause an exodus of the student body. There is some- thing of the old Hoosier spirit on the bleachers as on the field that fights to the end, and if success does not come in one game or in one season they begin building and hoping for the next. The above picture shows the Indiana bleachers in battle array during the exciting moment when Erehart crossed Tufts ' goal line for the first time in two years. Page Eighty-Three 1917; ARBUTU5; Mac Says, There are three reasons why we are going to beat DePauw : We have the best coach in America; we have the hardest fighting team in the State; and we have the grandest school in the country to fight for. 191Z; ARBUTU5: 4 Foothall 191Z ARBUTU5; i V ' H Review of the Season FOOTBALL at Indiana in 191o va marked by the coming of E. O. Steihm as head coach. The tall mentor from Nebraska took charge of his Hoosier squad September 20 along with the other coaches of the Big Nine and immediately commenced putting them through the rigid training and exacting drill by which he had won his games in the past. Thirty-four men composed his scjuad at the begin- ning of the season, but this number was augmented b}- the return of the University military units where a number of the stand-bys were held the first part of the season. The sky above Jordan Field was far from bright those first days. Such men as Erehart, McCoy and the Wiley brothers were still tied up in the army; graduation had cut a wide swath the spring before, leaving the team to be made up largely of 1915 .substitutes and freshmen; and added to all this an epidemic of sicknesses and a series of injuries made a disastrous visit to the camp. Captain Mcintosh himself was ill, and did not recover sufficiently to play his old game throughout the whole season. But determination and hard work can accomplish much, and both the coaches and the players had the quality of one and the capacity for the other. The result of the season was not the success in games won that we alwavs hope for, but we had a team which we were never ashamed to call our own, antl when it showed the fighting qualities that aided it to cross the Tufts ' goal line for the first time in two years, no one could withhold his respect The daily [)ractice was behind closed gates ex- cept on Wednesdays. Wednesday afternoon were made gala occasions. The band and yell leaders were out and scrimmage was the order - 191Z ARBUTU5; of the day, that the fans might see what kind of a team was being formed during the week. Indiana 20 — DePaiiw DePauw came down the Monon September 30 for the opening game on the Crimson ' s schedule, as she has done for time immemorial accord- ing to western standards. Her hopes were high for victory this time, but she met a similar fate. The Methodists were blanked, while the Indiana warriors were able to cross her goal line three times. The score was 20-0. Captain Mcintosh played throughout most of the lirst half, although he was not in the best physical condition. Erehart played a star game while off on a furlough from his company. Many time-outs and substitutions caused a lack of snap to the game, but it was valuable in giving the coach an opportunity to test his men. 19iZ ARBUTU5 Indiana — Chicago 22 Chicago ' s powerful machine out- classed the Crimson in the annual game played on Stagg Field, October 14, and won by the score of 22-0. They used a baffling shift play by which the Maroon backs tore through the line, dodged through holes at tackle, and skirted the ends consistently for l)ig gains. The Crimson defense was weak and offered serious resistance only a few times. The redeeming feature of the game was the brilliant work of Erehart. Arch played the greatest game of his career. He was the prime factor in every gain Indiana made and every Chicago play that was broken up throughout the hard struggle, until he was carried off the field near the close. Indiana ID — Tufts 12 It is the game with Tufts College at Indianapolis, October 1 ' , that Indiana fans will point to as one of the best exhibitions of football ever put up in the State. The eastern invaders came with an uncrossed goal line and a mighty reputation. Only two short weeks before, the Crimson age Kighty-Eiglit 191Z ARBUTU5: had been decisively defeated by Chicago. So our outlook was far from bright. But the light was in that team that had never been surpassed by any Indiana team. The Crimson outplayed their opponents through- out most of the game. In the last quarter, after Tufts had already scored its twelve markers, Hathaway booted a drop-kick for three points. This sent the fans wild, but their greatest treat was yet in store for them, for in a few minutes Erehart gathered in a Tufts ' pass and bounded across the enemy ' s line for a touchdown. Hathaway kicked goal with only a few minutes of play left. Iiidiaiia ( — Xortliwcsteni 7 Indiana lost to Northwestern, 7-0, on Jordan Field, November 4. The Methodists relied on straight football entirely, and after crossing the goal line in the first quarter, played a safe game, and staved off the assault to the end. The Crimson defense was nothing like that presented against Tufts the week before. The Hoosiers were forced to play the aerial game to a large e.xtent, but many of their passes were intercepted. However, Indiana fought to the end, and there was a possibility of her tying the score to within the last minutes of play. Indiana -Ohio State 46 The Conference champs overpowered and crushed the Indiana eleven at Columbus, November 1 1. When all was over the score stood 4o-7, all in their favor. In the short time that Harley played with the State eleven he gained about 180 yards for his team. Indiana made her only marker in the second quarter after Pope had fallen on a blocked punt on Ohio ' s 191Z ARBUTU5: fourteen-yard line. Witli fourth down and five to go, Hess tossed the ball to Hiatt, who caught it directly under the goal posts. Hathaway kicked goal. Imliana 14 — Florida 3 The Horida .Alligators, from far away in Di.xie, came north to battle Coach Stiehm ' s men November 18. Although handi- capped in a number of ways, they did battle, and battle hard. They outplayed the Crimson in the first half and took a 3-0 lead. Stiehm was saving some of his best men for the Purdue game the next week. Captain Mcintosh was sent in in the third period, and after a couple plays carried the ball over for the first touchdown. Hathaway repeated the performance in the last riuarter and the ame ended 14-.i for the Crimson. Indiana — Purdue It was probably due to costly mistakes of the officials that Indiana did not defeat Purdue in the annual game which was played on Stuart Field, November IS. But as it was, the battle raged throughout four hard-fought periods with neither team scoring on the other. A soggy field slowed up the action. The Purdue line counted for nothing against the fierce fighting of the Indiana forwards. The Boilermakers gained ground on a few well executed forward passes, while Indiana made most of her distances between tackle and tackle. While of course the result was not satisfactory, the Crimson was glad to break up the string of Purdue victories. 191Z ARBUTU5; Football for 1917 Captain Hathaway RUSSELL G., or rather Tubby Hathaway, of Dugger, Indiana, will lead the 1917 football squad. He was the unan- imous choice of his team- mates at an election held shortly after the close of the season. Hath has been a regular on the team for two years. The past season was the best of his career. He not only played a fine defensive game, but displayed unusual ability as a place-kicker and line plunger. He made a total of twenty out of the fifty- one points scored by the Crimson last fall. Prospects Prospects for the next season are the brightest they have been for years. This year ' s freshman squad was composed of some of the best football material in abil- ity and experience that has ever come to the University. Coach Stiehm will enter upon his second year in charge here, and the com- ing season will thus put his system to the test. The following favor- able schedule, with five home games, has been announced : 1917 Schedule September 29 — Franklin Col- lege at Bloomington. October 6 — Wabash College at Bloomington. October 13 — St. Louis I ' niver- sity at Bloomington. October 20 — Minnesota at Min- neapolis. November 3 — Ohio State at In- dianapolis. November 17 — DePauw at Bloomington. November 24 — Purdue at Bloomington.

Page One Hundred Two 191Z ARBUTU5: Review of the Season INDIANA won four out of seven Conference games played in 1916, be- sides winning two from DePauw, and one each from Marshall Col- lege and the State Normal. The feature of the season was the brilliant victory won from the Illinois champs in a twelve inning battle. The squad received valuable pre-season training by the stay of the Indianapolis Indians here from April 10 to 13 for a series of four exhi- bition games. Of course, the professionals won all the games, but the Crimson improved so much that the fourth game, instead of being a run- away for the Indians as were the other three, was barely won by them, 7-6. The season opened officially on April 14 with a 4-3 victory for Indiana over Northwestern. It was a big day with the stick for the Indiana batsmen and it was their timely connection with the leather that won the game. But it was not an easy victory. The score stood 4-1 until the ninth inning, when the Methodists rallied and almost tied the score, but fell short one run. Marshall College from Huntington, West A ' irginia, visited Jordan Field April 17 while on a western invasion. This was another big day for the Indiana men and they won again without trouble. The score was 12-3 with the second team playing the greater part of the time. Next came the prettiest game of baseball that has ever been played on the local field. The Illinois nine, fresh from a southern training trip, stopped in Bloomington to meet the Hoosiers. It was a dark, ugly day with a biting wind and low clouds threatening rain all afternoon. But the two pitchers, Ed Ridley and Red Gunkel, pitched wonderful ball in spite of weather and in spite of everything. The Crim- son scored an earned run in the fourth, and by the assistance of a wild Hundred Thn 191Z ARBUTU5; throw the Illini tied the score in the seventh. By the time the extra innings began a drizzling rain had settled. The break came in the twelfth. The bases were full and there were two outs when Isenhower stepped to the plate — at the ps}xhological moment. He cracked out a beautiful line drive over the head of the first baseman, sending Whitaker home with the winning run. Weak attack and loose defense caused the downfall of Beebe ' s men to Purdue, April 29, on Stuart Field. The Boilermakers won 7-0. The Crimson won an easy victory from DePauw on Jordan Field, May 6. They slugged the ball at will, and Sev Buschmann drove one to the far corner of the lot that was good for the circuit. But when the Chinese University of Hawaii team .came to town on May 9, they showed no mercy for the Crimson. When the festival was over the score was 17-6, all theirs. Shively and Smith, Northwestern pitcher, battled for seven innings May 12, but in the eighth the Crimson bunched their hits and won 2-0, making the second victory over the Methodists. The Illini took revenge when the Hoosiers stopped on Illinois Field May 13. The Crimson were blanked while their opponents amassed a total of eight runs. Another battle royal was staged on Jordan Field May IS while the Pageant was being presented. Ohio State took a fourteen inning struggle 8-5 from the determined Hoosiers. Indiana did not have much trouble administering DePauw a second defeat May 22, at Green- castle. Ridley held the opposing batters scoreless while the Crimson made twelve runs. The Hoosiers last Conference game of the season was won from Iowa 3-0 on Jordan Field, May 27. Captain Guard turned the little home run trick himself in this game. The contest was called on account of rain at the end of the sixth. The final game with Ohio State at Columbus had to be cancelled on account of rain. The last game of the season was played against the State Normal School at Terre Haute, May 31, and was won 7-6. The greatest credit is due Coach Beebe for the showing of the team. He is a college man who has played professional ball. His lighting quali- ties are shown by a little incident that occurred in the Illinois game. Ridley returned to the bench in a cloud of blue after the unlucky seventh inning. The coach looked toward him and said in a sharp tone, Fd, clean off them spikes, and git ready for the ne.xt innin ! 1917; ARBUTU5;  • 1 Coach Beebe Coach Beebe Whitaker A baseball player who makes Whit takes a post about first baseball players.

WHISMAN was Coach Stiehm ' s first choice for assis- tant football coach when he assumed charge at Indiana. Whisman is a halfback, pitcher, hockey player, pro- fessional baseball man and football coach, who has gained a wide reputation for his athletic ability. He has had a varied experience as a player on western teams. He has been half- back in the fall and pitcher in the spring for four west- ern colleges. He has played professional baseball with two teams in the Pacific Coast League, and has also played in the Central and American associations. Whisman comes to Indiana from Drake College where he was coach for two sea- sons. Stiehm has a high opinion of Whisman ' s abil- ity as a football coach, for his Drake team made Stiehm ' s Cornhuskers hustle to win last season. Whisman also coached the freshman basketball sciuad last winter. He has charge of the 1917 baseball squad as head coach this spring. It is widely agreed that the ideal baseball coach is a college man who has played professional ball, thus giving the coach expert experience on one hand and a knowledge of his field on the other. Coach Whisman measures up in this respect, and in all respects it seems he has the qualities of a successful coach. He has the confidence of his men and sets an example as a hard worker. He had his squad out early in the winter in order that he might get acquainted with his men. Indoor work in the Gymnasium was commenced early and the squad rounded into fair pre- .season form before the southern trip this spring.

LOWMAN was Coach Stiehm ' s selection for fresh- man football coach last fall. Mr. Lowman came to Indiana from the Kansas Agricultural College at Manhattan, Kansas, where he was an annual opponent of Coach Stiehm at Neb- raska. At the close of the football season he was given a permanent position in the Department of Phys- ical Education, and at the beginning of the basketball season took charge as head coach. He has had four years of playing experience in football with the Iowa State Normal and the Springfield Physical Edu- cation College. He has also played baseball and worked on the track. Lender his direction, the team stored away the games in the won column, and succeeded in eciualing the previous year ' s record of annexing three Conference games, two from Iowa and one from Ohio State. He had Captain Buschmann, Nash and Mullett to start with. Each of these three men played the best game of his career. Mullett characterized himself as an air-tight guard. Lowman switched Buschman from floor guard to forward where he distinguished himself this season. Nash could be relied on to take the tip-off at center, and he was always good for his share of the baskets. Of the sophomores on the squad, Williams, Byrum and Schuler distinguished themselves especially. Much is expected of them in the way of basketball in the next two years. Lowman ' s basketball team helped christen the new Gymnasium by winning the first athletic contest played in it, from Iowa, January 19. The score was 12-7. 191Z ARBUTU5; CaPT.

In the first place, the games were played in the light and spacious new Gym- nasium. Then, the contending players, their followers, and the officials added to the success of the event. Good sportsmanship prevailed on the floor and on the sidelines, and no cjuestion was made as to the strict impartiality of the officials. Everywhere things went on smoothly. The Boosters Club, which had charge of the local end of the management, did its work well and thoroughly. The club published a souvenir booklet of the tournament this year, giving views about the University and a schedule of the tournament. No complaints were henrd. Several super- intendents and a high official in the State High School Athletic Association forwarded their congratulations on the way the tournament was con- ducted. Indiana ' s Basketball Classic for 1917 began at 7 a. m. jNIarch 16 and closed with Lebanon ' s defeat of Gary the next evening. Twenty teams, which were victors in as many sectional tournaments, competed. The basketball tournament constitutes one of the biggest events on the University calendar, and hundreds of high school students over the State prepare the whole winter for this week end. Through the medium of this tournament, basketball has served as one of the strongest agents in building up a community spirit in many towns and cities in the State. Besides the trophy awarded the victorious team, Mr. Jake Gimbel, of Vincennes, offered a prize to the player in the tournament showing the best mental attitude, and the Y. M. C. A. silver medals to the eight players who showed the best sportsmanship. These prizes were presented at the close of the final game when Lebanon was presented her trophy. The Gimbeil prize was awarded to Curtis of Martinsville. The Y. M. C.

The State Champions LEBANON High School ' s team won the State title in basketball for 1917. The championship game was played between Lebanon and the Emerson High School of Gary. The score was 34-26. At the start Lebanon played their opponents off their feet. The first half ended 2. -12 in favor of Lebanon. But Gary staged a come-back the second half, and ran the score up to 11 before Lebanon made anything. Here the champs took a brace and pushed their score out of reach for the rest of the encounter. After the game Registrar John W. Cravens made a short speech reviewing athletics in general at Indiana University, and closed by introducing Indiana ' s head coach. Mr. Stiehm presented the trophy shield to the Lel)anon Higii School team, as champions of the State, and watch-fol)s bearing gold medallions to the eight players com- jM) ing the victorious team. 191Z ARBUTU5; rack ±Q±7 ARBUTU5; fl The 1916 Team INDIANA experienced one of •I- her best vears in track in the spring of fmo.

Page One Hundred Twenty-One 191Z ARBUTU5: Review of the Season THE Crimson Track team went through the most successful season in the spring of 1916 that had beep experienced by an Indiana track squad in years. In the course of the season In- diana won her first conference dual meet within the memor}- of the present student l)ody. This was from Northwestern, wliich succumbed to the Crimson in two other major sport events last year. l ' ank- lin, Earlham and Wabash were also de- feated in dual meets, and Murchie was sent to the Penn Relays at Philadelphia where he succeeded in placing tifth against a wide field of competition. Several local records were lowered during the season. C. C. Childs, who coached the squad, was captain of one of Yale ' s track teams while a student there, and was one of c c. ciiikis Old Eli ' s stars. He was a member of the Olympic team in 1912, and won third place in the hammer throw at Stockholm. Coach Childs was the author of many well-conceived inno- vations, which bore fruit in the largest track squads Indiana ever had, and the most successful teams. Only a few years ago it was hard to get enough men out to have a track team, but more than eighty reported to Coach Childs in eacli of the two years he was in charge here. The result of his work at Indiana University is a solid foundation upon which Crimson track athletics may flourish in the future. Three meets were held at Bloomington before the intercollegiate schedule began. The first was called the novice meet, held in order to give the coacii a line on what he might expect of his men in competition. The meet was held in tlie track oval back of the old Gymnasium despite snow on the ground and wintry winds which tended to slow up the time. An interclass meet was held .April 15, which the freshmen took into their fold by a large score. Buckner and Tavener .set new records in the javelin throw and shot-put in this meet. Murchie eclip.sed the former Universitv mark in the hammer throw in the annual spring meet, April 21. Heuring captured the 100-yard dash in :10 flat; and Allen took the 220 in a prettv race. The first dual meet was with Franklin . pril 29. Indiana won easily, 94-41. Bailey made a total of sixteen points for the Baptists. The Quakers from Earlham were easily beaten Mav 6. The score was PaRc One Ilundrcil Tw 1917 ARBUTU5; 79 4to4634. Murchieset another record with the 35- pound weight, and Ikens made tlie two-mile run in 10:18. Another easy vic- tory was won from Wabash May 13 by the score of 77- 49. Sweet, Burns, Cauld- well and Nicholsen were the chief point-getters for Wabash. Rlurchie beat his own iLTord iii the hammer-throw, and Luther broke the Indiana record in the running broad jump, although his points did not count, as this was his first year in school here. The only dual Conference meet on the schedule was won from Northwestern May 20, by a score of 76 1 3 to 57 l i. The score was a little more than even the most optimistic hoped for, but it did not come unearned. Childs ' men were most successful in the field events, but the track men did their part. Indiana won fifth place in the State Meet at Lafayette, May 27. It was unfortunate that the relay, hammer, and javelin events, all of which were won by Indiana, did not count for points in the meet. Har- grave won a first in the pole vault. Murchie made third in the hammer- throw for Indiana ' s only points in the open Western Intercollegiate meet at Chicago, June 3. Besides these meets, Murchie was entered in the Penn Relay at Philadelphia, April 28, where he placed fifth in his two events, the hammer throw and the 56-pound weight. Hundred Twcnty-Tl 191Z ARBUTU5; Harvey Cohn H Cixuii of Trark ARVEY COHN, of New York, was se- lected as track coach to succeed C. C. Childs, by the Athletic Board of Indiana Univer- sity upon the recommenda- tion of Athletic Director E. O. Stiehm. Cohn has had a long and brilliant career as an amateur distance runner. He started his athletic career with the old Star Athletic Club of New York, but wore the colors of that noted organization only a short time until he jumped to the Greater New York Irish-American Ath- letic Association. He con- tinued to represent that or- ganization until he gave up his standing as an amateur runner to take up coaching. Running under these col- ors, he won the mile race in the fast time of 4 minutes, 2b ,i ' 5 seconds, accomplishing this feat in the junior championship games of the Amateur Athletic Union, held in 1903. He ran the three-mile race in the senior championship of the A. A. U. in 1905, in the fa.st time of 15 minutes 41 2 5 seconds, which was close to the record for that event. Cohn represented the United States in the Olympic games at St. Louis in 1904; at Athens in 1906; and at London in 1908. He has been track coach at Colby College for a number of }ears where he has turned out teams showing good from in the Maine State meets. Red Murchie, a varsity hammer thrower, received his first lesson in tossing the big weight from Cohn while both were at Colby. Cohn took up his duties here in September. He has charge of all track and field athletics, both intercollegiate and interclass. His work with the var ity track M|uad thi spring is expected to show good results. Page One Itundred Twt 191Z ARBUTU5; Captain Pope When big Murchie resigned the captaincy of the track team upon being declared ineligible to participate further in intercollegiate athletics on account of the three year rule, the track men elected G. S. Pope their captain. Pope is an end on the football team, and made his letter in track running the high hurdles. He won the decatholon in his sophomore year, thus being declared the best all-round athlete in school. Prospects for 1917 Indiana should have a successful season in track this year. Coach Cohn commenced work with his men immediately upon assuming his new duties at the beginning of school last fall. He held several out- door meets before winter weather, these being the first fall track meets Indiana University had ever witnessed. A large number of men are working out under him and there are some with more than ordinary ability and experience. The team received a blow when Captain Alurchie was declared ineligible, but it is hoped that someone will appear to occupy his shoes. His successor. Captain Pope, is a reliable man. The late return of Heuring to the University brought added hopes to the team ' s chances. Two Conference dual mc:t. appear on the schedule this year. The schedule is as follows : March 24 — Conference Indoor Meet, Evanston, 111. April 21 — Drake Relays, Des Moines, Iowa. April 27-28 — Penn Relays, Philadelphia, Pa. May 5 — Ohio State at Bloomington. May 12 — Northwestern at Evanston, 111. May 19 — DePauw at Bloomington. May 26 — State Meet at Lafayette, Ind. June 16 — Conference Meet at Chicago. 191Z; ARBUTUS The 1917 Squad THESE are the men with whom Coach Cohn expects to gain recognition for Indiana in the 1917 track season. Seven letter men form a nucleus for the team, while the rest have been recruited from the 1916 freshman squad. Top Row — Blattman, Thomas, Mogge, Barbour, Kemper, Heuring.

He finished first in the five mile race at Columbus which was held in connection with the football game between the two schools that after- noon. This is the first time Indiana ever scored first place in a cross country run. But the rest of the Crimson team were unable to finish strong, and while individual honors went to Indiana the State team car- ried off team honors by a score of 20-35. This work of Kemper ' s raised the hopes of the Hoosier Harriers to make a good showing in the annual Conference run at Lafayette Novem- ber 25. The finish was on Stuart Field just before the Indiana-Purdue football game. But Indiana ' s team was unable to be listed among the ones finishing, as five men from a school must finish in a cross country race, and two of the Crimson runners were unable to do so. Purdue won the race. Coach Harvey Cohn is in charge of the Harriers. 1917 ARBUTU5; Freshman Cross Country LAST fall was the first time a freshman cross country team had ever been organized at Indi- ana University. Coach Cohn com- menced the training of yearling harriers in order that he might have a larger group of experienced men with which to form a team next year. The men in the pic- ture are: Top Row — Grant, Clymer, Clark, McCo- ' . Second Row — . lexunder, McFarland, Smith. BoTTOii Row — Cromer, Briggs. Replogle Clements Page One Hundred T«e 191 Z: ARBUTU5; Wrestling B -• one letter man in wrestling was in school at the beginning of the mat season, and the chances of anyways near main- taining Indiana ' s long held supremacy in this sport were very dim. Probably the greatest blow to the team was the failure of Captain MacCor- mick, who was a western champion in his weight, to return to the University this year. John Red- mon, who won a championship in the heavy- weight class at last spring ' s western meet, was lost to the squad by graduation. But by hard work, a team was built up from the raw material w hich made a very creditable showing, although it did not produce any western champions. Joseph C. Hook was the lone I man who reported for the scjuad at the beginning. He was elected captain to fill the vacancy left by Mac- C ' ormick ' s failure to return to school. It was largely due to Coach James A. Kase that such an inexperienced squad at the begin- ' ning was developed into such a strong team before any of the scheduled meets. Wrestling has been a popular sport at Indiana since its introduction here, probably on account of the uniform success of its teams. While but little was expected of this year ' s team at first, its real success under these difficulties might be in part due to the standing of the sport in the University, which calls for the hardest work on the part of the wrestlers. The first meet was lost to Illinois February 5 by the close score of 4-2. This meet was featured b}- the ability of both teams, as there was not a single fall during the entire match. Tremor, in the 135-lb. class, and J. Moore, in the 158, .scored the points for Indi- ana. The Oimson scored an easy victory over Northwestern February 17, in the only home meet. The score was 28-6. Captain Hook won a decision, a draw and a fall over his opponent. Dalzell, in twice throw- ing his opponent in record time, showed himself as the classiest artist on the mat throughout the whole evening. J. Moore also showed good form in the 158-pound class, throwing his man in two fast falls. The North- western grapplers were coached by Dr. Jones, who first put the mat game on its feet at Indiana University while he was on the facult - here. The Hoosiers won a worthy victory from Purdue by the score of 20-21, in the last dual meet of the season. Captain Hook again won his ' outs in a fall and a decision. Tremor, H. Wilev and Stormont were the other IQIZ ARBUTU5: 0Pff  W ► % . J %. I. Indiana wrestlers to score. Captain Cutler and Bootv scored Purdue ' s points. Indiana seems to be under the spell of a hoodoo, so far as the Western Intercollegiate meet is concerned. Last year the championship was lost by the flip of a coin, and at Iowa City, March 23 and 24, two close decisions which were practically decided by toss-ups, went against Indiana. The result of the meet was that Indiana tied with Nebraska for second place. Illinois won. The outlook for wrestling next year is the brightest. Practically the whole team, which has done so much in one year, will be eligible. Paee One Hundred Thirtv-On e 1917 ARBUTU5: The Wrestling Squad COACH Kase succeeded in rounding a successful wrest- ling team out of the plentiful num- ber of aspirants that reported to him at the beginning of the sea- son. There was only one man of experience, but all took to the mat readily. Tlie men in the picture are: Top Row — C. Wiley, P. Moore, H. Mley, Stormont, Tatlock. Skcuxd Row — Kryder, Wall, Burton, J.

P.igc One Hundred Thirty-Two 191Z ARBUTU5; Boxing Boxing is one of the sports given systematic at- tention for the first time this } ' ear, through the new- regime in athletics and the increased facilities offered by the new Gymnasium. Coach Cohn, who is a boxer of ability himself, is directing the work of the gladiators. Only one maa turned out the after- noon of the first call, and after that first workout nothing was heard of him for several days. But when he came back, he brought some more with him, and from that time on the class took up boxing in earnest. Cohn expects to put this sport on an intercollegiate basis next year. The men in the picture are: Top Row — Davenport, Kel- leher. Wise. Bottom Row — Ploughe, Pierce, Stormont, Coach Cohn. Gymnastic Competition Godfrey M. Luther, ' 18, easily won first place in the Gymnastic Competition conducted by Phys- ical Director J. A. Kase last year. First prize carries with it a large loving cup presented b} ' the Department of Physical Education. Luther was in the lead the entire year, and at the close was thirty- three points ahead of his nearest competitor. Luther also made all the senior requirements for Sigma Delta Psi with but one trial in each event. Page One Hundred Thirty-Three 191Z; ARBUTU5 Top Row— Embich, Staples, Hay. Botto:m Row — Kasc (coach), I.uthc (captain), Anderson. The Gym Team JIMMY KASE formed a team out of hi.- workers on tlie parallels, hori- zontals and the mat, antl proceeded to teach them the finer points of the gymnast ' s art so he could enter them in intercollegiate competi- tion. The team organized and elected (i. M. Luther, ' 18, captain. Luther won the gymnastic competition conducted by the Department of Physical Education la.st year by a big margin. Each of the other men on the team, .Anderson, Embich, Staples and Hay, finished within the prize list in this competition. Kase is a gymnast of many years c |)erience, and there are 191Z ARBUTUJ; not manv things about the game that he does not know. The men on the team have all had more or less extended experience in gymnastic work, and they proved apt pupils of the coach. The new Gymnasium increased the stock in this sport as it did in all branches of athletics. More room and facilities are now at the disposal of the gym men than before. Only one meet was participated in during the year, and this for the first time in several years. Two men were sent to the fifteenth annual championship meet of the Western Intercollegiate Wrestling, Gymnastic and Fencing Association, held at Iowa City, Iowa, March 23 and 24. Captain Luther and Anderson represented Indiana University. A num- ber of Conference and other western schools participated. A g} ' mnastic team is regularly composed of ten me n, but Indiana ' s two representa- tives succeeded in compiling a score of 305 points. This is considered an excellent record, and proportionally is much higher than that scored by Chi- cago, the winner of the meet. Ordinarily one would be surprised to see someone ap- proaching on his hands instead of his feet. But over in the Gymnasium when the heavy gym class is at work, the ordi- nary person has many sur- prises in store for him. Not only do they walk forwards and backwards on their hands as well as we do on our feet, but they fly through the air on the rings, whirl round on the bars like a windmill, and tie themselves into all kinds of knots on the tumbling mat. The picture shows Captain Luther, of the gym team, and Staples, up side down. Page One Hundred Thirty-Ki 1917 ARBUTU5 The Golf Links Sl ' C ' H unexplainable words as bogey, fore, and such peculiar instruments as mashees, putters and brassies have come into tlieir own again at Indiana University. Long ago there was a golf course somewhere around Bloomington, and many tales have recently been revived of the antics of certain professors in those days. But those links have passed out of existence, and a new course was not laid out until this year. The new six hole course is located on the extreme north end of the campus, beyond the new (i mnasium. An expert from Chicago was brought down to lav out the course. The links have been continually improved all year until the}- are in fair condition now. A number of professors and students who were already adept at the game were glad to see the links built, and a number of others have taken up the game. All through the winter, whenever it was in the least possible, there would be some enthusiasts, a little further gone than the rest, on the links. One of the signs of spring this year, like the coming of the robins, was the golfers, who were called to the green in tlocks as soon as their instincts told them warm weather was in the offing. 191Z Campus Driveway Activities ARBUTUS; The Class Scrap FOR the first time in a number of years the sophomores won the annual class scrap between the second and first year men. Almost all the old pre-scrap activities which took form in hair cuttings and Jordan River drenchings have passed out of exist- ence, and the two classes must vent all their !)ent-up natural antagonisms on their adver- sary when scrap day comes. The freshmen have usually been victors in the past on account of their superior numbers. This year the method of conducting the ictor • ' scrap was entirely revolutionized in order to equalize the chances of the two classes and to eliminate any possibility of a serious accident. Contrary to the former custom, the entire male enrollment of the two classes did not go into the scrap. Instead, one hun- dred and seventy-six able bodied members of each class were selected. The scrap consisted of five events — a shuttle race, a tug-of-war, two wrestling matches and two pushball contests. The war cloud settled upon the campus with the election of scrap captains by the opposing hosts. Ralph Peckham was declared com- undred Tliirty-Sev, 191Z ARBUTU5; mander-in-chief in the sophomore camp, and Marion Borders was chosen from among a number of candidates by the freshmen. When the day of the big event came, October 7, each leader expressed, in very positive terms, his class ' s intention to wipe the other off the campus forever. The first event of the afternoon was the shuttle race which the sophomores carried off easily. In the wrestling matches, Whicker won for the sophs in the heavyweight division, but Hoffman for the frosh, and Warner for the sophs, wrestled to a draw in the lightweight. The freshmen succeeded in dragging their opponents over the lield in the tug-of-war. The most interesting events were the pushball contests. The sophs won the tirst after hard fighting, but the freshmen resorted to strategy in the second and rolled the ball across the line in a short time. The .score was 7 ' j for the sophomores to 6 ' - 2 for the freshmen. III 1Q17; ARBUTU5; 191Z; ARBUTU5: fl The Board of Editors Howard h. Houc.htox, Editor-in-Chief.

These are the people who are responsible for the hook before you. rase (liK- Ihliulred l-orty 191Z ARBUTU5; The Nineteen Seventeen Arbutus ONE year ago six persons were entrusted by the senior classes at Bloomington and Indianapolis with the responsibility of publish- ing the 1917 Arbutus. Our labors were beset with difficulties and inexperience; our labors were encouraged by a love of our task, the willing co-operation that everywhere met our endeavors, and by a determination to work with everything we possessed to fulfill the ideals we had set up in our hearts for this volume. It has been our endeavor, constantly in mind, to accurately record a year of life and activity at Indiana University. But that has been the effort of every Arbutus staff since the first one back in 1894. Of course we tried to do it better, and hope we have, but that is for those into whose hands this volume falls to say for themselves. It is the fortune of the 1917 Arbutus to appear at a time when every department and branch of Indiana University is expanding and spread- ing out to wider fields of activity, and a still more solid renown. Our loyalty to the University that has demanded our best labors for four years, and has given us benefits incalculable, has inspired the editors all the more. It is our hope that this book may take its place in the upward march. As we hope it may approach those that have gone before, we hope that it may be surpassed by each succeeding Arbutus to follow. As we see the future Indiana University, greater than can now be realized, we see the future Arbutus greater than present resources and systems can allow. Then, if the people who live in those days to come for Indiana University can pick up the 1917 Arbutus from its place in the files, and point to it as one of the upward steps in the progress that is always demanded of time, then shall we know that we have passed the test. And if, at that time, those who now dwell on Indiana ' s campus may pick up this book they helped to make and feel a touch of kindness for the old boys they knew at college, and the old times they used to have, while yet they would not have the leaves turned back to those times, we have done what we wished.

The pictures must be bought and paid for, cuts must be made of them and the whole matter must be printed and bound. All this calls for numerous contracts and an amount of business ability in letting them. It is of the most essential importance that cordial relations exist between the Board of Business Managers and the Board of Editors. The managers ' responsibility is no less great than that of the editors. Dangers abound them in number and the least slip in management may cause disaster. The}- must choose from among strong competition, and meet business firms of long standing and experience upon an equal foot- ing. All this calls for careful attention and an exercise of business skill and Judgment more than is commonly expected from behind college walls. The 1917 Arbutus is financed by a group of men who have proved their efficiency in every department. The various contracts were let with the greatest judgment, and at all times they exercised a close attention to every detail. Their expressed and ready willingness to co-operate with the editors at all times and in every way has added to the pleasure of our task. They have exhibited the highest loyalty for the 1917 Arbutus, and have shown themselves to have as high ideals for its success as are found on the editorial side.

Page One Hundred Forty-Ki 191Z; ARBUTU5; The Indiana Daily Student IT is said that the newspaper represents the spirit of tlie community, and it is likewise true that the college paper reflects the spirit of its college. The Indiana Daily Student is a prime factor of University life. It delivers the news of all University events at the student ' s door each day, and it is through it as a medium that student opinion is expressed and University events promoted. Editors have come and gone, and while each has had his own ideas about a college paper, which he has incorpora- ted, the policy of The Indiana Daily Student has remained the same; that it stands for the best for Indiana University. The Indiana Student was established in 1867 as a semi-monthly, and was made a daily about lifteen years ago. Since its establishment it has been in a constant state of progress and improvement. Now it presents a correctness of .style and a typographical appearance, besides giving evi- dence of a care in editing, that definitely ranks it among the few best college dailies in the country. Besides gathering and presenting the news, The Daily Student serves as a laboratory of journalism for students who are preparing for a journalistic career. It is maintained b}- the Department of Journali.sm, which appoints the editors and business managers. The Daily Student has had a home of its own on the campus for the last three years, since the old power house was remodeled and Pasjc One Hundred rnrty-Six IQIZ ARBUTU5; the University Press established there. The Student is organized similar to a metropolitan paper. In fact, it is a reproduction of a metropolitan daily in miniature, in order that one will not be so completely bewildered when he first starts in the big field. This year has been an especially successful one for The Indiana Daily Student. Much of the credit for this success is due to the men who have been in charge throughout the year. The department changed the number of editors from two to three each year and divided the time so that there would be an equal number of issues in each division. Frank R. Elliott was in charge until the Thanksgiving holidays. The same energy and aptitude for work that won him the nackname of demon when he was a reporter characterized his term in the chair. Philip R. Locke gave the paper the benefit of his long experience on the staff, and his own forceful writing, while editor-in-chief in the second period, which ended March 12. Kenyon Stevenson is in charge of the last lap. He incorporated many new ideas at the beginning, and has maintained the high standard of excellency throughout. The work of the business de- partment became more than one man could attend to, and an assistant was appointed this year. The business manager is Hugh Norman and the assistant Paul L. Palmerton. Under their direction The Student has experienced one of its best years financially. Prof. J. A. Wright comes in for the greatest share of the credit for the high standing of The Student. He gives the paper constant supervision, with his experienced eye, and it is he who keeps constant peace and harmony in the office.

Without it, the editor ' s task is truly difficult. In the last analysis, it is he who must accept the entire responsibility, and one unruly or unprincipled member of the staff may bring the ire of an indignant professor or a wounded fellow-student upon the editor ' s shoulders. But these difficulties have been at a minimum dur- ing the present year. A desire to learn and a willingness to work has characterized the staffs of the three editors. To show its sticking qualities, the .staff has been practically the same in the three periods. Out in the active field the newspaper man is attached to his paper by one of the closest ties known in any profession. He considers himself disgraced if he allows a rival to scoop him, and he looks upon his paper ' s advance with more pleasure than ujjon his own. This is the spirit the members of The Student staff come to have before long. 191Z ARBUTU5; The Hoosier THE HOOSIER T HE publication of the iirst volume of The Hoosier be- gins a new chapter in the lit- erary life of Indiana University. For some time it has been felt that the University should possess a literary organ. The State has cherished literary traditions which its University should seek to per- petuate. The Writers ' Club fin- ally conceived the idea last spring of an immediate publication of the magazine. It was believed that the new venture should have the backing of an organization and this was the logical one. With the beginning of this year, the Writers ' Club abandoned its so- cial side entirely, and settled down to the work of publishing In- diana University ' s first literary magazine. A number of difficul- ties were met, but all were solved, down to the selection of a name. The greatest care was taken in laying plans in order that the magazine might become a permanent institution as the other established student publica- tions, and not merely a one year venture. Its financial success was as- sured early, and there is no doubt now but that the magazine has come to stay. J. Harold Schuler, who died October 4, was to have been editor. He worked upon the first issue up until the last hours of life. Mary Mack, the vice-president then assumed the editorship. Kenyon Stevenson was business manager the first part of the year, and is largely responsible for the financial success of The Hoosier. The members of the club compose the staff. The club is very fortunate in having Mr. C. W. Snow, of the English Department, as a member. Mr. Snow has taken part in the publication of student magazines at Bowdoin College and at the University of Utah. His enthusiasm and energy are responsible for The Hoosier more than any other one thing. The Hoosier exists as an outlet for the literary talent of the University. Its columns are open to any contribu- tion of merit, and new members are admitted to the Writers ' Club upon submitting three articles worthy of being published in the magazine. Pase One Hundreti 191Z ARBUTU5; 191Z ARBUTU5; The Sta e ARBUTU5 The 1916 Union Revue C APT A IN CU- PID, a two-act musical comedy with a prelude and inter- lude was presented as the 1916 Union Revue in the Men ' s Gymnasium May 23, and at the Harris Grand May 24. The auth- ors were Paul L. Feltus, George W. Henley, Mun- son D. At water, Arthur B. Leible, and Jack Schuler. The 1916 Revue took step with the pace set by previous Revues. The men were as funny, and the maidens even more beau tiful and shapely than they had ever been be- fore. The singing, danc- ing, costuming and acting were up to standard. The production opened with a wondrous scene, announced as The Mountains of the Moon, ten thousand years ago. As the cur- tain rose, a great mountain revealed itself in the background, while the spotlight played on the waters of a beautiful lake in the distance. As it grew lighter, ancient Greeks could be seen awakening from a trance-like sleep. Their spokesman invoked Zeus to send them education and civ- ilization. Then, Zeus himself appeared over the mountain top amid flashes of lightning and promised the people an institution to be known as a university. The Genii then appeared to bring from the mysterious depths of the mountain all the people who go to make up a modern univer- sity. After the lapse of ten thousand years the reincarnated people of the mountain appeared in the Union Station at Indianapolis just before the departure of the train for Bloomington. After an interlude the scene shifted to the entrance to the campus, where the two lines in the travesty, the military and the cupid part, were brought together and the big show closed with the rollicking chorus of Gaptain Cupid by the wliole cast. 191Z ARBUTU5; George Henley George Henley, ' 13, was the director of the 1916 Union Revue. His was the task of training bold youths to step and trip as shy maids. The success of the big trav- esty was largely due to his administrative ability, which kept the large cast in hand at all times. Henley was connected with the lirst annual Union Revue.

This part of the show consisted of a dramatic tribute, in the way of side-splitting travesty, to the Shakespeare Tercentenary. Jack Schuler and Arthur B. Leible were joint authors of the skit, and Bob Stilwell acted in the capacity of pageant master, stage manager, comedian, clown, and fun-maker extraordinary. Schuler and Stilwell together with Tommy Thompson and Bill Maurer put on the performance between the two acts of the show proper. The introduction was entitled Verse and Worse. Jack Schuler was Verse and Bob Stilwell Worse. After Schuler had demanded Light 1 Light! L-i-g-h-t-I, after the style of a well known symbolic character in the Pageant of Bloomington and Indiana University, stage-manager- clown Stilwell put up his semaphore signal for the characters in Cock o ' the Walk to take the stage. Otis Skinner and Miss Bridle, ( Thompson and Maurer ) hove to and put on a sausage version of the noted actor ' s play which opened the stoppers to the spectators ' laughter tears. Episode 2 was The Post Office, in which ]Maurer, Schuler and Thompson participated respectively as Madhav, the uncle; Amal, the boy, and Udha, the flower girl. The Worse stage manager then put in the First Call for Hamlet. In strode the Prince of Denmark (Tom Thompson), but in contradiction to our usual understanding of that gen- tleman ' s appearance and habits, he was baldheaded, and was reading the Police Gazette. And when Polonius was killed, his blood poured out of a catsup bottle. Stilwell announced that the Library had closed and the great pageant ended. Page Oac Hundred Fifly-Four 1Q17 ARBUTU5 Foundation Day Play THE Importance of Being Earnest ' was the play presented for the annual Foundation Day production. It was given Thursday eve- ning, January 18, under the direction of Professor E. G. Frazier, and by his class in the staging of plays. The play is a comedy of literary merit, and was given to accjuaint people with a fine form of dramatic, humorous literature. Its theme is rather trivial, but its art is expressed in its cleverness, which consists largely in the repartee and in the bright- ness of the lines. Mrs. C. E. Edmondson, Ruth Barley, Margaret Benc- kart, Malcolm Campbell and John Hastings in the leading roles de- livered their lines in a way that kept the large audience constantly on their side. Marguerite Knotts did well in the difficult role of Miss Prism, and Archie Tracy, as the Rector, and Orville Maxfield and Floyd Hodson, as butlers, played up to the leads of their principals in fine style. The success of the amateur actors in giving the play was shown by the fact that they were very favorably received by the audience of the Little Theatre at Indianapolis, where the play was acted again some time later. Page One Hundred Fifty-Fi ' 191Z ARBUTU5 Milestones THE Garrick Club presented Arnold Bennett and Edward Knob- lauch ' s Milestones in the old Gymnasium April 13. The cast was: Mrs. Rhead, Helen Trent; Rose Sibley, Enid Eichhorn; Gertrude Rhead, Myrl Lewark; Webster, Byron Thornburg; Sam Siblev, Clifford O. Richey; Xed Pym, Ensel Knowles; John Rhead, Ira Bauni- gartner; Emily Rhead, Luella Smith; Arthur Preese, Howard Lahr; Nancy Sibley, Marjorie Suter; Lord Monkhurst, Herschel Clark; The Hon. Muriel Pym, Helen Adams; Richard Sibley, Carl Girton. Ir. H. W. O ' Connor coached the play with great success. The play depicts the continual struggle between the progressiveness of youth and the conservatism of old age. The scene is the same through- out the three acts; it is the drawing room of a house in Kensington Gore. In the first act it is a December evening in 1860; in the second it is an afternoon in June 1S85; and the third is June 1916. The plav begins with the dissolution of a partnership of shipbuilders, Sibley, Rhead, and Sibley. John Rhead sees that the ships of the t iture are to be made IQIZ ARBUTU5; of iron, but his partners re- ject the idea, and in a stormy discussion allow him to make his way to success alone, while they suffer financial decline. But with the passing of the years he becomes as unable to grasp the ideas of his daughter ' s generation, as his former partners were those of his own. But Rhead is the hard driving man of success who always gains what he desires, and his daughter is forced to give up the man she loves for another of her father ' s choosing. This period represents the height of his career and he is made a baron for his contributions to the party in power. When the scene is shifted to the present old Sir John is bent and aged. He openly tyrranizes over all in his sphere. He reveals his total alienation from the present by saying, The country is going to the dogs. ' He strongly opposes his granddaughter ' s marriage to the man she loves, but this time he is finally overruled. After peace is restored in the house- hold, and old Sir John and his wife are sitting before the open fireplace alone, he says, The women are not like they used to be. They are un- sexed. Just at that instant his granddaughter softly enters the room and going to her grandfather ' s side tenderly fastens a flower on his coat, and as softly goes away. Sir John said, We live and learn. 191Z ARBUTU5; The University Orchestra THE University Orchestra is called upon to take an important part in all University celebrations and dramatic productions. The orchestra plays the music in the special ritual that is observed for the celebration of Foundation Day. It also plays annually at Commence- ment. Besides its local appearances, it is often called, in whole or in part, to alumni functions, or meetings of a State wide character at Indianapolis. It was the official orche.stra for the Indiana State Centennial celebrations last year. During the past year, the orchestra has given a number of Sunday afternoon concerts, free to the public. Local and Indianapolis mus icians sometimes appear on special numbers. These concerts have been popular, owing to their high merit. Professor Charles D. Campbell, of the Music Department, is conductor, and it is largely due to his untiring efforts in behalf of the orchestra that it has reached its high standard of excellence. 191Z ARBUTU5; Personnel Dr. Ch ARLES D.

The University Band THERE was a time when the Indiana University band was not ver} ' liighly considered, even at home. That time has passed. The pres- ent band is recognized as one of the biggest factors on the campus. The band was reorganized last fall, after it returned to Indiana from border service, with Archie Warner as director. Under his leadership it has enjoyed the most active year of its existence. Complete new outfits were purchased and the personnel was enlarged. The band has added a social side to its organization, and smokers are held for the members frequently. At one of these smokers, plans were discus.sed and completed for holding a military ball in the old Gymnasium, Indiana University ' s first. The band is a prime factor at all athletic contests. It is only second in importance to the contending teams at a home football game, and is annually sent to Chicago and Indianapolis for the games there.

The Glee Club NEXT in order from the impractical professor and the proverbial athlete, a college figures most largely in the minds of the un- initiated by its glee club. A glee club is as necessary to a college as a pair of spectacles are to a professor. The Indiana University Glee Club has made itself known over the State as a successful one during the many years since its organization. Mr. John L. Geiger has been director of the club for a number of years, and must be given much credit for the high rating of the singin g aggregation. The first appearance of the club this year was when a selected number sang at a meeting of the Indian- apolis Alumni Association in the Claypool Hotel, on the night before the Tufts game. Another partial appearance of the club was at the ban- quet given at the Claypool by the Indianapolis Alumni Association in honor of Ambassador Naon, who spoke at the University Foundation Day. The first regular trip was taken March 1, 2 and 3, to North Vernon, Seymour and Bedford. Another trip was taken during the spring vacation to Martin.Nville, Connersville and Indianapolis. As . specialty men, the Glee Club carried with it Harry Shackelford, the whistler; Jack Taylor, monologist and magician; Ralph Luddington, baritone soloist, and Mal- colm Johnson, accompanist and piano soloist.

The Indiana Debating League AN organization composed of everyone in the University interested in debating or public speaking was formed this year to arouse a greater enthusiasm in this activity. The name of the new organ- ization is The Indiana Debating League. There are no regular meeting times, but meetings are called by the president whenever there is any busi- ness to be transacted. The officers are: Herman T. Briscoe, President; James W. Young, business manager; Clay A. Phillips, secretary-treasurer. 191Z ARBUTU5; Bryan Prize TAMES W. YOUNG, ' 18, of Owensville, J won the annual Bryan Prize contest held on the evening of January 19, in connection with the Foundation Day festivities. The subject of the discussion this year was, The Budget System for America, and the winner presented a well-prepared and well-delivered oration. Two other contestants participated. The prize is the interest on $250, given for the purpose in 1898 by the Hon. William Jennings Bryan. The subject for the contest is one relating to the principles underlying our form of government. The judges this year were Prof. E. H. Biermann, Mr. J. E. Moffat and Mr. Samuel F. Pfrimmer. The Interclass Discussion I ENYON STEVENSON, representing the sophomore class, won the annual Interclass Discussion in the spring of 1916. The time of the discussions was changed from the fall to the spring last year. The subject of the discussion was, What Conditions in Indiana Should be Considered in 1916 with a Mew to Remedy? According to the system of the Interclass Discussion, two persons from each of the four classes, winners in their re- spective class contests, participate in a contest for final honors. The honor of winning the discussion this year carried with it a silver loving cup presented by Tau Kappa Alpha, the oratorical fraternitv. 1917 ARBUTU5; Top Row— Gill, JIcGuire, Weinhardt, Endres, Blatt.

Extension Debaters THE most successful system of debating ever developed at Indiana is that under which the Extension Debates are conducted. All the Extension Debates this year have been held with DePauw and Earl- ham. According to this system two persons, composing a team, from each school meet in the various towns of the State, usually under the auspices of the high school, and debate upon a topic assigned. After the debate, a referendum vote is taken in the audience to reach a decision. The vote is supposed to represent the attitude of the community on the question debated, and not on the merits of the contending teams as debaters. Two teams debate on each of the subjects. In one, one school will take the affirmative side, and in the other will take the negative. Twelve Extension Debates have been held this year, and in interest and enthusiasm this was one of Indiana ' s best. Subjects debated were: Dual System of Super- vision of State Charitable and Correctional Institutions; Woman Suf- frage; Classification System of Taxing Property; Municipal Home Rule; Compulsory Military Training; Appointment of State Judges.

The winner of the tourna- ment has the privilege of having her name engraved upon a silver loving cup. Katherine Rawles is the school champion in swimming, and Helen Coblentz is champion of last year ' s tournament. Miss Madeleine Connor is in charge of swimming. Baseball B ASEBALL has been introduced as a new sport this spring, and about fifty girls were out for the first practice. Class teams will be selected and the championship will be played off. 191Z ARBUTU5; Girl ' s Basketball As soon as bad weather forced the girls in from the hockev lield, all attention was turned to basketball. In answer to the first call for candidates for the teams, about twenty freshmen and fifteen or twenty from each of the upperclasses presented themselves at the gym- nasium. Miss Roddy had charge of freshman practice and Miss Brown coached the upper classes. The girls were put through two practices weekly, and these practices were no laughing matter. Class spirit and a natural love of clean sport and competition upheld the girls through a long series of dislocated fingers, smashed noses and aching muscles. The teams were chosen in February, and the schedule of games arranged. The selections for the regular teams were: Seniors Juniors UxA C.A.MP, jumping center H. zel S.anders, jumping center Cl.ara Fedler, second center Katherine Rypma, second center Helen Neligh (Capt.), forward Irexe Yelch, forward Dessa Vandivier, forward Frieda Miner (Capt.), forward Majel Kureie, guard Frances Hauss, guard Dorothy Drybread, guard Hazel Wellman, guard Sophomores Freshmen Bernice Eastwood (Capt.), jumping Josephine ' ingfield (Capt), jump- center ing center Gertrude Paddack, second center Pearl Castle, second center NIiMA Huckleberry, forward Grace Spangler, forward Florence Sytz, forward Emma Schmitt, forward Lena Van Cleve, guard Ruth Simering, guard Frances Dale, guard Velma Gibson, guard According to the schedule, each class team plays all the others, mak- ing a series of six games. After the championship is determined, two teams composed of the best players picked from all the classes plav the annual Yale-Harvard match game. On February 28, the sophomores defeated the freshmen by a score of 21-12, and the juniors lost to the seniors, 18-16. Both games were interesting, for the teams were closely matched. The junior-senior game was especially exciting, for the score was tied when time was called, and the seniors won by making the first field goal. On March 7, the seniors won over the freshmen by a score of 21-7, and the sophomores were defeated by the juniors, 12-10. The juniors again held their opponents to a tied score, but luck turned in their favor this time. The W. A. A. sent two delegates to an athletic conference of repre- sentatives from various colleges at Madison, Wisconsin, in March, and an improvement in the conducting of basketball as a sport is expected next year from the new ideas gained at the meeting. 191Z ARBUTU5 Top Row— ' os, Drybread, Canine, Fedler, Janes.

The Association stands ready to give practical help to the girls whenever it is possible. Devotional meetings are held on Thursday evenings, led by the general secretary or one of the members, and addressed by faculty members, speakers from the city, or out-of-town visitors. Each year the Association gives courses in the study of the Bible, and of home and foreign missions. The social side of the organ- ization purposes to bring the girls of the University into closer bonds of friendship. Miss Marion Janes is general secretary.

The Coedition Staff THE coed edition of The Indiana Daily Student for 1917 was pub- lished April 20. The edition was in charge of the members of Theta Sigma Phi, who constituted the Board of Editors, and a staff appointed by them. Besides the regular straight news, the edition was largely made up of features, fashions and many special departments of interest to the girls of the University. The issue was composed of ten pages, with special pages for athletics, editorials, organizations, alumnae, fashions, and special features. The coedition ' has become one of the important annual customs on the campus. 1917 ARBUTU5 Theta Sigma Phi THETA SIG NIA PHI is the national honorary journalistic sorority. The active members are Portia Bell, Rachel Brownell, Ethel M. Knapp, Blanche Penrod, Lucile Worley, Munier Ragsdale and Mary Mack. Mrs. J- W. Piercy and Mrs. J. A.

The Women ' s League THE Women ' s League is the large organization of all the women of the University, and acts as their representative in advancing their interests. Its purpose is to promote the betterment of the girls along all lines. Friendship parties are given in order to acquaint each girl with her associates, and all means are used whereby a democratic spirit ma} be fostered among the girls. Along social lines, the Women ' s League gave two successful dances this year, a masked ball in October and a Wash- ington ' s Birthday dance. The League established, and supervises, weekly dancing classes in the commons of the Student Building. Probably the most important activity of the Women ' s League during the present year was the management of the Vocational Conference held last fall. The League has always worked toward the betterment of housing conditions for girls, and it now conducts five girls ' rooming houses. The officers for 1916-17 are: Alary Gallahan, President; Gladys Dawson, vice-presi- dent; Mae Seward, secretary; Wilkie Hughes, treasurer. Members of the board whose pictures do not appear in the picture are Mary Esarey and Lucile Clevenger.

The club has been very valuable for celebrations and all activities where a trained chorus of girls ' voices is needed. The Girls ' Glee Club takes part in the Foundation Day exer- cises, and at times appears jointly with the Men ' s Glee Club at the Con- vocation period, and before other student audiences. A large number of girls are attracted to this activity, and there is always a plentiful sujiply of voices with which to form the club. 191Z ARBUTU5; Top Row — Barnett, Connor, ilcP ' arland, Rhinehart, Dawson, Zaring.

A trite story it is for those busy people who have never had or who have long since for- gotten connections wdth college or gradu- ation. But a story that always arouses the same feeling in those who do under- stand it all, as fresh each year as it was the year before. A simple statement of facts, with no interjection of rhetorical sobs, carries with it a story of the part- ing of the closest friends and associates one is likely ever to have. A college campus is the scene of the tenderest friendships in life. Graduation means the drifting away from associates who have occupied a large part of one ' s life until they are merely a fond memory, and perhaps still later only an empty name. It means that the scene where the happiest period of one ' s life has been spent will become only a pleasant picture instead of an actual reality. There is a joyous side to the Commencement festivities, however. Young people always have their faces hopefully turned toward a brilliant future. While they have enjoyed their years of preparation, they have tended to chafe under the inactivity and yearn for the real world. Com- mencement marks the time when they may make their actual start, and clear off the field to build their highway to real success. But there is also tragedy in this joyous side. Not all of these whose hopes are so Page One Hundred Xi 1917 ARBUTU5 high are destined to reach their lofty desires. There will be failures even among these who have spent years in preparation. A generation hence some hopeful faces of toda_ ' will be weak, shattered and empty looking because of a life of disappointment and failure. Commencement last spring came before we could realize that the pleasant years allowed us to spend on the campus with the class of 1916 were to come to an end. No matter how long the four years of college loom up in the mind of the entering freshman, to the departing senior in looking back he cannot understand how it passed so quickly. The senior class of 1916 held some of the close.st friends we of 1917 shall ever have, and we regretted their departure while }et we hoped for their success, now that their time had come. The Commencement festivities of 1916 began with the Senior Swing- out and Peace Pipe ceremony on the campus, Wednesday, June 7, when representatives of the senior and junior classes announced their respect- ive regrets. Then all smoked the pipe of lasting peace and buried the hatchet, even as did their Indian predecessors on this same ground. The Commencement of the School of Law was held Friday evening. The address was delivered by the Hon. L. Ert Slack, United States District Attorney for Indiana. The Baccalaureate sermon on the following Sun- day was delivered by Bishop William F. Anderson. Monday, June 12, was Senior Day, and Tuesday was Alumni Day. The Commencement exercises were held Wednesday, June 14, on the campus. The address was delivered by Dr. Albert Shaw, editor of the Review of Reviews. President W illiam Lowe Brvan conferred the degrees.

I will follow that method of treatment which, according to my ability and judgment, I consider for the benefit of my patients, and abstain from whatever is deleterious and mischievous. I will give no deadly medicine to anyone if asked, nor suggest any such counsel; furthermore, I will not give to a woman an instrument to pro- duce abortion. With purity and with holiness I will pass my life and practice my art. I will not cut a person who is suffering with a stone, but will leave this to be done by practitioners of this work. Into whatever houses I enter I will go into them for the benefit of the sick and will abstain from every voluntary act of mischief and corruption; and further from the seduction of females or males, bond or free. Whatever, in connection with my professional practice, or not in connection with it. I may see or hear in the lives of men which ought not to be spoken abroad, I will not divulge, as reckoning that all such should be kept secret. While I continue to keep this oath unviolated, may it be granted to me to enjoy life and the practice of the art, respected by all men at all times; but should I trespass and violate this oath, may the reverse be my Int. IQIZ ARBUTU5 i Page Two Hundred Thirty-Four 1917 ARBUTU5; Charles E. Ferguson, M. D. Clinical Professor of Obstetrics. CHARLES E. FERGUSON was born in Indianapolis May 29, 1856. He was educated in the public schools of the city and received his degree of Do ctor of Medicine from the Indiana Medical School in 1892. He has done post-graduate work in gynecology and obstetrics at the St. Mary ' s Hospital and Great London Hospital in London; in Dr. Bumm ' s Clinic at the University Hospital in Berlin; and work in obstetrics at the General Hospital in Vienna. Before studying medicine Dr. Ferguson was interested in microscopy and in the early days was a teacher of histology and bacteriology. He was the first Secretary of the City Board of Health under its present charter, and he organized the present Department of Bacteriology. It is of interest to know that he was the author of the first milk ordinance of the City of Indianapolis. For two terms he was Superintendent of the City Hospital and City Dis- pensary. He is a fellow of the American Medical Association and a member of the State and County Medical Societies. He is now a member of the staffs at the City and Robert W. Long Hospitals, and for the past seven vears has been Clinical Professor of Obstetrics. Page Two Hundred Thirty-Fiv 191Z ARBUTU5; Page Two Hundred Thirly 191Z ARBUTU5 W. N. Wishard, A. M., M. D. Professor of Genito-l ' r ' mary Surgery. DOCTOR WM. NILES WISHARD was born in Greenwood, John- son County, October 10, 1851. He attended Wabash College from which he received the degree of Master of Arts. He began to practice at Southport in 1874, removing to Indianapolis in 1876 where he has continuous!} ' practiced medicine since. He graduated in medicine from the Indiana Medical College in 1874 and from the Miami Medical College in 1876. From 1879 to 1887 he was Superintendent of the Indianapolis City Hospital. In 1884 he was appointed lecturer on clini- cal medicine in the Medical College of Indiana and in 1887 the chair of Genito-Urinary Surgery was created of which he was made the pro- fessor, which position he held continuously until and since the merger with the Indiana University School of Medicine. He was the first physi- cian in Indiana to make genito-urinary surgery an exclusive specialty and since 1887 has confined his practice to this department. He was among th first to appreciate the importance of training schools for nurses and was chiefly instrumental in establishing the Flower Mission Training School for Nurses, in connection with the Indianapolis City Hospital in the spring of 1883. This school was the first one organized in Indiana and probably the second one organized west of the Alleghenies, the first being the Illinois School of nursing in connection with the Cook County and Presbyterian Hospitals. He performed the first prostatectomy in Indiana in 1890. He is ex-president of the American Urological Asso- ciation, Mississippi Valley Medical Association, the Indiana Slate Medi- cal Association, and the Indianapolis Medical Society; while a change of a few votes would have made him president of the American Medical Association at the Minneapolis meeting in 1914. He is also a member of the Association Francaise dTTrologie, and the American Association of Genito-Urinary Surgeons. He has been active in Medical legislative matters and as the chairman of the Committee on Legislation and Public Polic}- wrote and secured the passage of the present medical law in this state in 1897. He has been chairman of this committee for the past twentv years. Two Humired Thii 191Z ARBUTU5 Page Two Hundred Thirty-Eight 191Z ARBUTU5; Miles F. Porter, A. M., M. D. Professor of Surgery. MILES F. PORTER was born in Decatur, Indiana in 1856. He received his early education in the public schools of the vicinity with private tutoring in Latin and German. In the year 1878 he received the degree of Doctor of Medicine from the Medical College of Ohio, and in 1882 an honorary degree of Master of Arts from Franklin College of Ohio. His interests and activities have been many; he being a fellow of the American Medical Association and its trustee for 9 years; a fellow of the American College of Surgeons of which he w-as a founder and a member of the Board of Governors; a fellow of the American Surgical Association; at one time president and fellow of the American Association of Obstetricians and Gynecologists; a member of the Indiana State Medi- cal Society, and its former president; president at this time of the Northern Tri-State Medical Association ; member of County and District Societies ; surgeon and chief of staff of the Hope Hospital, Ft. Wayne, Ind., and Professor of Surgery in the Indiana University School of Medicine. 1917 ARBUTUJ; To the Doctors ' You have chosen your Genius, have passed beneath the Throne of Necessity, and with the voices of the fatal sisters still in your ears, will soon enter the plain of forgetfulness and drinli of the waters of its river. Ere you are driven all manner of ways, like the souls in the tale of Er the Pamphylian, it is my duty to bid you, poor, careworn survivors of a hard struggle, so ' lean and pale and leaden eyed ' with study, God-speed on your journey.

The didactic courses are given by the members of the faculties of the Medical School and of the College of Liberal Arts, and the practical training is obtained in the Robert W. Long Hospital. The Class of 1917 holds the distinction of being the first to receive their diplomas as nurses from the University. Small in numbers, yet we hope big in .spirit and prepared to meet the demands and bear the hard- ships of any emergency which the present international crisis may require. 191Z Bratton, Marie Mvrle.

Pyocaneus in the incubator in the bacteriology department seemed to be multiplying so rapidly that one might think from their appearance that spring had ar- rived, nature reacted by igniting the rubber tubing with a blaze that not only sterilized every culture in the laboratory, but destroyed portions of the fourth floor and roof, and so damaged the remainder that they are entirely unfit for use. As some of the boys remarked, nature ' s only weak antibody was the night watchman. Our students were scattered, after the fashion of the University of Paris, to the four corners of the city. Some of them for a time submitted to being called dentists; while the seniors actually reverted to the genus of high school students. At present through the kindness of the manage- ment of the Indianapolis City Hospital, classes and laboratory work are being carried on in various vacant nooks of that institution. What has happened since the fire is now history. Every man, faculty and student, worked as best they knew how, for the Indiana Gen- eral Assembly was in session and from it must come the appropriation for a new building in which we could continue our work and maintain the standard attained after many years of hard labor. We know the story of their support, yet we failed. There is a future and we are optimists, for there shall be a day when every man shall experience the reward of his loyalty in the satisfaction of knowing himself an alumnus of no mean Hoosier School. IQIZ ARBUTU5; The Smoke House NOT that its occupants are so addicted to the use of cigarettes, bad stogies or Piper Heidsich does it become necessary to make use of such a foul smelling name, but from the fatal elements which so ruthlessly invaded the precmcts of our castle, carrying with them de- struction and leaving devastation and a vacation in their wake. No dis- respect is accorded the old building which for years has housed many an ambitious and blushing neophyte with the virgin beard of youth still upon his cheek, certainly no disrespect for no self respecting building would even consider associating with that rioting herd which stampedes the corridors and terrorizes the neighboring community. It has labored under untold difficulties and braved many scenes which alone would make the blood of any man chill with fear or run limp with remorse; it has seen Indiana ' s pioneers in medicine grow old and die, each leaving his little share to better mankind; it has seen battles fought and victories won for the profession; from its nest many men have gone out to make names for themselves and their alma mater; and willing she stands today ruined and wrecked waiting for the burden to be lifted and its doors closed forever. Page Two Hundred I-V 191Z ARBUTU5; To the Colors Ox the twenty-seventh day of April, the Senior Class of the Indiana I ' niversit}- School of Medicine came forward and gave her share to further the cause of world-wide democracy and crush the cham- pion of t ranny and barbarism. Prior to this, however, there has been no lack of interest; in fact, material support has been given the recruiting campaign by several of the seniors in the form of their services as exam- ining officers at the Navy Recruiting Station. Upon the acceptance of any member of the class by the United States Navy, Dean Emerson sig- nified his intention to immediately give that man his diploma. Ten of the boys at least will be graduated without delay, as that number have been examined and sworn into service as assistant surgeons with the rank of lieutenant, junior grade, in the Naval Coast Defense Reserve. No sooner had they taken the oath than they applied to the Navy Department for active service. May they have good luck and a bon voyage. The following men were commissioned: I.- RTIN L. MaRQUETTF.

P or a time, the Department dealt almost entirely with the patients of the Bobbs and City Free Dis- pensar)-. But with the opening of the Robert W. Long Hospital on June 15, 1914, the work became state-wide. Its main office is in the Long Hospital. Its aims are to further the cure of those patients referred to it by physicians who recognize that their patients need more than medicine, Page Two Hundred Fifty-One 191Z; ARBUTU5; if they are to profit from their trips to a hospital or a dispensary ; to fur- nish valuable statistics which in time can be used as a basis of research along sociological lines; and to provide new opportunities for the educa- tion of students of medicine and of sociology, and for the enlightenment of all persons who are interested in social conditions — in poverty, vice, their causes and their cure. Robt. W. l.ong Hospital At the Robert W. Long Hospital the citizens of Indiana, rich and poor alike, are offered many exceptional advantages in the care of their sick. One ward especially deserves much credit for the particular good it is doing, this is the Children ' s Ward. .Although it is small and its capacity therefore much limited, yet a large number of little folks are cared for vearlv. These few beds alone are of distinct economic impor- tance to the state, for here it is that many of nature ' s little unfortunates are given careful attention and the benefit of skilled .surgerv in an en- deavor to make useful and strong citizens of them. Such conditions as liare-lip, cleft palate, club foot, hip joint and spinal tuberculosis in addi- tion to many acute medical and surgical diseases are corrected or given beneficial treatment. No more worthy contribution to the public could be madp by an institution.

Membership is based entirely upon scholarship, moral qualilications being satisfactory. The fraternity was organized at the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Chicago, August 25, 1902, and is the only society of its kind in the medical schools of this continent. It has chapters in 18 of the leading medical schools in the United States and Canada. This organization, while possessing exclusive features as regards scholarship with other exacting requirements, adds to these the definite mission to encourage high ideals of thought and action in schools of medicine, and to promote the best in professional practice and research.

The Law School MUCH of the criticism tliat is made against tlie law profession is due to the fact that too many of its members are not grounded by the rigid training that is necessary to make proficient law- yers. It is one of the trends of the times that the recjuirements for admis- sion into the profession are ever increasing. One cannot read law sat- isfactorily in the modern busy law office. The schools of law of the country, which turn out trained lawyers, are now supplying the efficient and successful members of the profession. A School of Law was first opened as a department of Indiana Uni- versity in 1842. It is believed that this was the first State University law school west of the Alleghenies. In 1877 this department was closed as a result of legislative action, cutting down salaries to such a point that competent professors could not be secured. The School of Law was re- established in 1889, with provision for a two years ' course. In 1901 the course was lengthened to three years. The school of law is now in the most important period of its development. New professors are being added, and the school strengthened in all wavs. r.agc Two Hundred -Seve 1917 ARBUTU5; !||||liil!lllllllllll!!llllllllllllllllllllllllllillllll|lllll Bachelors of Law WALL, MERL MARIOX.

It was founded in 1869 at the University of Michigan, and its roster is composed of the names of more than 10,000 lawyers. Two ex-presidents of the United States, and three members of the United States Supreme Court were active members of Phi Delta Phi while in school. Foster Chapter was established at Indiana University in 1900. Eligibility to membership depends upon a recommendation from the law school faculty in r egard to scholarship. All the members of the law school facultv are Phi Delta Phi members. The members, as they appear in the picture, are: First Column Smith W. Store}- Frederick A. Wiecking Prof. M. C. Campbell Harry P.

The fraternity strives to uplift the profession and maintain high ideals among students of the law. Since its organization it has grown rapidly among those schools which require the accredited two years pre-law work, and three years of law work for the Bachelor of Law degree. Scholarship and prominence in school activities are considered in eligibility for membership. The local chapter was established in 1911.

Every candidate for a degree is required to take part in the proceedings of these courts. The third year practice court has a complete staff of officers, and is provided with a full set of court records and such blanks as are used in the regular courts. Moot courts are organized for the discussion of legal questions for the students of first and second year classes. Hypothetical cases are prepared and submitted under the guidance and direction of the faculty. The court room is in Maxwell 35. Here it is that the embryo lawyer towers above his perplexed witness and demands such things as, Who did you or did you not see passing your house on the afternoon of April 1 ?

And to come sounding from thy trumpet ' s throat; But I would have thy glance of lofty joy Glow with the promise that in other years Thy sounding wing shall seek but not destroy My rest, as one who sang away men ' s fears, And taught the talisman of hope to ears That knew no other hope but love ' s employ. — Dr. Luther D.an.a.

A barber shop and poolroom are maintained in the Student Building for the members. At the beginning of the year the Union commenced operating under a new constitution which increased its powers and widened its scope for usefulness. It is the ambition of the Union to have a home of its own on the campus by the time Indiana Universitv celebrates her centennial year in 1920.

The newer organization is an honorary Greek- letter fraternity of national scope for college men who intend to make journalism their profession, and who have shown an interest in journalism while in school. Sigma Delta Chi has its home in the same rooms as were occupied by the Press Club, and the activities that made the organization of the old boys of Indiana journalism prominent have been maintained and elaborated upon by the present generation of journalists. The evening of the annual homecoming football game in the fall has been reserved for Sigma Delta Chi to give its annual ninety-eight cent bargain Blanket Hop to raise funds to buy I blankets for the seniors of the football squad who have played three years on the team. The fraternity also names Resurrection Day, the day everyone is to haul out his old straw hat for the summer siege. The officers for the first semester were: Noel C. Ruddell, President; Eugene J.

It fur- nishes the only distinctly interdenominational religious agency on the campus. By relating itself helpfully and practically to campus and community problems it has gained a high esteem. The purpose of the organization is to be of service to the men in prac- tical ways. Classes in the study of the Bible and the study of missions are held, and general religious meetings are held on alternate Thursday evenings. The Association gives an annual Two-bit Banquet, which has come to be one of the most important institutions of the campus. Every man in the University is invited to gather around one board on this evening before a sumptuous meal for the price of only twenty-five cents. The Y. M. C. A. directs the publication and distribution of the : I Red Book, the student directory. One of the most important activities is the employment bureau, which is maintained for the benefit of students desiring to work a whole or part of their way through school. Mr. T. A. Rymer came to Indiana last fall to assume the duties as general secretary of the Association, to fill the vacancy left by the departure of Mr. A. L. Miller, who is now in India as a missionary.

A baseball game in the spring is usually selected as the time for the spiking committee to make its way through the crowds and tie the black and white ribbons of the club on the persons chosen. The organization is purely social, and periodical dances and banquets are held. The Sphinx Club was organized about seven years ago by the Book Nookers of that dav. The club members ' claim to distinction is based upon the hats thev wear.

Mary Mack is president of the club and editor-in-chief of the maga- zine. Kenyon Stevenson is business manager of the magazine. The members constitute a board of editors. Mr. C. W. Snow, of the English Department, who was first elected as an honorary member, but soon he- came the most active member of the organization, is the most prominent figure in the publication of the new organ.

IQlZi ARBUTU5 : hJ J mf ' ' .j Page Three Hundred Seventy-Four 191Z: ARBUTU5 P.ocik Paw Always Looks Into Before He Goes to Town 191Z ARBUTU5 Chamber of Commerce THE Chamber of Commerce of Bloomington, Indiana, was organized in 1915 for the purpose of promoting the commercial, moral and civic welfare of the City of Bloomington and environs. It numbers among its membership over three hundred of the most progressive busi- ness and professional men of the city and University and also has a large number of farmer members. Realizing that Indiana University is a large and very important part of Bloomington, the Chamber of Commerce has at all times been ready to co-operate with the university, the student body or the individual student. The management of the Chamber of Commerce is vested in a Board of Directors of ten members, two of whom are members of the faculty of the University. The active direction of Chamber of Commerce affairs is in the hands of a secretary-manager, who devotes his whole time to the work. Without neglecting other activities, a large part of the work of the Chamber of Commerce during the past year has been devoted to the agri- cultural interests of Monroe County, and it has been able to secure the appointment of a county agricultural agent to look after the promotion of better farm life methods and to assist the farmer in meeting his prob- lems. A Monroe County Agricultural Association was organized with a division in each township to discuss any and all matters affecting the farmer and to enable the farmers to act as a unit in working out plans for betterments. A County Fair will be held each fall to encourage the production of better farm products. A Pig Club has also been organized, that has placed a pure bred, registered pig with a boy in each of the twelve townships to introduce and establish a uniform breed of pure bred pigs. Largely as a result of the activities of the Chamber of Commerce in securing an expert road engineer from the U. S. Department of Agri- culture, the highways of Monroe County are now in better condition than they have been for years. During the present year, the Chamber plans to devote a larger part of its energies to the study of general city and county affairs, including such matters as water rates and service ; gas and electric rates and service ; city and county finance and taxes, with the intention of suggesting such changes as ma}- seem necessary to bring about improvements that appear necessary.

We had been told time and again of the difficulty to be met in dealing with people; that individuals would seemingly go out of their way to make things harder for one. But on the contrary we have found in practically every case persons have done more for us, and have given us of their interest and good will more than we could expect and more than we could rightly ask. So few were the incidents of unpleasantness that they are scarcely remembered. The result is, that through the long hours of work we have spent in editing the 1917 annual, we feel we have a more solid loyalty and a deeper appreciation of what Indiana University stands for than we could possibly have without this training. We have labored all the way through with the view of serving our University by means of this volume, and if we have failed in all else we have at least made a better Indiana student of ourself. One thing we have learned: if we could be entrusted with the pub- lication of another Arbutus, it would be a far better one than this. We make no apology whatever for the book before you. We have done our best and sought to answer our own high estimate of its quality. But there are defects in this that would not occur again, and matters in organization and management that could be improved upon. That privilege, however, is denied one, and we close the 1917 Arbutus with a high regard f or the Indiana University body and a lasting loyalty for the institution. Tjie Editor-ix-chief. 1917
