•■Ilk TO It qOjdJuyrfiMu u'ns. mis it. .JOHN' LAIXG John Laing, President of a large number of leading coal companies in West Virginia, was born near Glasgow, Scotland, August 21. 1865, the son of Alexander and Elizabeth Laing, and where his family had lived for years and had always been interested in mining. The birthplace of Mr. Laing is the same as that of Sir Harry Lauder, the famous Scotch humorist, and he and Lauder still maintain their childhood friendship. Mr. Laing’s parents emigrated to America in 1867, locating near Sharon, Mercer county, Pennsylvania. They lived in Mercer county and Mahoning county, Pennsylvania, until 1881, when the family moved to West Virginia, where they have lived ever since. However, before 1881 Mr. Laing had spent a year or two working in the mines of West Virginia. As a boy he worked in the mines of Fayette county. West Virginia, until 1898, when he was made manager of a company store. In the next few years he helped to organize the following companies, all of which were located in the low volatile coal fields of the state, namely: Sun Coal Company, Sun. W. Va.; Royal Coal Company, at Royal, W. Va.; Lanark Coal Company, Lanark. W. Va.. and Rush Run. Brooklyn, and Cunard companies in Fayette county: McAlpin Coal Company and Morrison Company in Raleigh county. He also organized and developed Main Island Creek, MacGregor and MacBeth companies in Logan county: the McKay Coal Cmpany in Gilmer county, the Sharon Coal Company, Sharon, W. Va., and the Wyatt Coal Sales Company in Charleston, which is the sales agency of all the other companies in which he is interested. For almost a third of a century Mr. Laing has stood at the front of affairs in his community and state. He was chief of the department of mines of the state from 1908 untiy 1916, serving under Governors Dawson, Glasscock and Hatfield. While serving in this capacity he was instrumental in establishing a rule that all superintendents, mine foremen and mine bosses should have certificates of competency before serving in any of those capacities. In 1903 Mr. Laing was married to Miss Margaret Slagle of Hanover, York county, Pennsylvania. lie has two daughters living, Louisa and Gertrude, and one, Margaret, is dead. One of his daughters is the wife of Dr. Herbert Garred, Baltimore, while the other was recently married to William G. Conley II. son of Governor Conley. Mr. Laing is vice-President of the Feather River Pine Mills, Inc., of Oryville, California: President of the Capital City Bank of Charleston; a director of the Ohio Valley Bank, Huntington : a director of the Plymouth Oil Company of Texas. He is a thirty-second degree Mason, a life member of the Society of Elks, a deacon of the First Presbyterian church. Charleston : President of the Charleston Union Mission, chairman of the finance committee of the Charleston Y.M.C.A.

To you, editors of the 1930 edition of this traditional publication, the task must be particularly gratifying. The year has been one of progress and happy growth. Starting off in September with an increase of a dozen additional faculty members and a student body nearly two hundred larger than that of any previous September, the advance in spirit and power has kept up uniformly all the way through. The addition to Music Hall, the sprinkler system in College Hall, and the new library now on its way toward completion are but physical symbols of the social and scholastic growth taking place in the institution. The institution has had many good years, but none better than the present. It is a privilege to extend to you deserved congratulations upon your work, to the whole student body thanks for its loyal cooperation, and to our alumni and friends everywhere appreciation for their kind words and helpful activities. All these are playing a part in building the greater Marshall of our dreams. Morris P. Shawkey. 52 TWENTY TWENTY-ONE TWENTY-TWO JOHN L. STENDER Personnel Director West Virginia University A.B.

The first of the main affairs sponsored by the Student Council I wisn to mention, is the establishment of the Haworth Memorial Fund. This year’s proceeds came from a concert given by Mme. Frances Peralta. The valuable services rendered by Mrs. Mudge of the faculty in helping make this concert such a success is greatly appreciated. The Haworth Memorial Fund is one which future councils should strive to build into a fitting memorial for our beloved Dr. Haworth. Last Thanksgiving the council sponsored what is declared to be Marshall's greatest homecoming. This brought back to the campus several hundred alumni. Marshall College future homecomings will, without a doubt, be one of West Virginia’s greatest athletic events. For the first time in history the Student Council had complete control of the Beauty Queen election and celebration, and without contrary opinion it proved a wise and most successful move. We had a complete revolutionizing of Freshmen Rules this year. In the past the Freshmen were disciplined, not too successfully, by the Sophomore class. Seeing the need for a change in the enforcing body the Council chose the Varsity “M” Association to do the work. Too much praise cannot be given this organization for the splendid way in which they handled the situation. It seems as though next year they will be more successful than ever before. Freshmen rules should be handled right, or not at all. The adoption of a non-athlctic award, to be given students doing outstanding work in non-athletic activities, was officially adopted by this year’s council. I wish to thank Prof. E. E. Myers for his designing of this award. Many things regarding school activities and school problems were handled by this year’s council and a great work has been done by all its members, however, I wish to name a few who have done outstanding work in everything they have undertaken, viz: Tom Shirk, Charles Caldwell. Robert Rosenheim, Mary Mendenhall, Alfred Wallace, and Jay Hutchinson. As my closing words I wish to say to future council members, you have a great work ahead of you, along with a wonderful opportunity to serve your college. Go into your work with an avidity to serve your schoolmates as they wish to be served. Sincerely, Harry Wolfe, Jr., Pres. Student Body.

Caldwell ' :■ The Judiciary Committee The Judicial Department of the Student Association is represented by the Judiciary Committee. The organ is composed of seven members who are elected by the Student Council after a list of nominees have been selected from the Senior and Junior classes. Four members must come from the Senior class and three must be Juniors. The chairman, who must be a Senior, is elected by the committee. The powers and duties of the Judiciary Committee are: To have final judgment as to the constitutionality of acts of the Student Council and to try all cases referred to the committee by the Student Council arising under the constitution and rules. If a student is considered a violator of the student rules, he must first be indicted by the Student Council and if found guilty turned over to the Judiciary Committee for final decision. During the past two or three years there have been but few cases that have reached the Judiciary Committee. But as student government becomes stronger and the student body becomes larger, the Judiciary Committee will be a very strong organ of the Student Association. The members of 1929-30, are: Seniors— W. C. “Doc” Noyes, Chairman Woodrow Kckard Hite Wilson Charles Ford Juniors— Alvin llamill Myra Thomas Susanne Laing FORTY Standing Committees Besides the Student Council and the Judiciary Committee another department of student government is the standing committees, partly faculty and student. The three committees are: The Activities Committee, the Athletic Committee, and the Assembly Committee. The student members of the committees are appointed by the president of the student body, while the faculty members are appointed by the president of the college from a list of nominees named by the student president. The Activities Committee which deals with the social activities of the various organizations and makes rules and regulations controlling the same, is composed of the following: Faculty Member — Student Member — Prof. R. I. Roudcbush, Chman. Mary Sinclair Dean A. L. Beaumont Stollings Buskirk Prof. T. S. Lyon % The Assembly Committee which has absolute control of the assembly programs, is made up of the following: Faculty Member — Student Member — Prof. L. K. Wolfard, Chairman Tim Hollandsworth Prof. E. Turner Stump Janet Miller I.eonard Shawkcy The Athletic Committee which, in general, has charge of the athletic rules and regulations, appoints the managers of all sports, and in the future will name the captain for each sport, has the following for its personnel: Faculty Members— R. M. Hawley, Chairman Prof. C. E. Derbyshire Prof. John F. Cady Student Member — George Hensley Frederick Fitch rowvoNt THREE THOUGHTS If you could come to me and nay, My dear, you are to die today, I think I’d smile and not be sad, I’d only think of a certain lad, If a sonic I loved to sing, Of maybe a tear that I should bring. When I grow tired and weary Wanting something new To soothe my aching heart, I shall not ask it of you. I shall not cry again. Nor shall I sigh again, I shall only smile— And think what might have been. My heart grows heavy today. Dear, since you went away. Your chair seems to rock to and fro, Like the daisy nodding high and low. Like a fresh flower you came to me Happier for me life grew to be. But like a flower you’re withered away. Oh, isn’t there something I can say. —Boyce Yarbrough.

CALDWELL In the publication of the 1930 Mirabilia the staff has attempted to give to the students a book representative of the entire college and within the reach of all. The big aim for the year has been an “everybody’s Mirabilia.” In this we have been to a large extent successful. There arc several marked changes from the books of the previous years. The 1930 Mirabilia is increased in size from two hundred pages to two hundred and sixty pages, the athletic section is the largest in the history of the publication, the faculty is complete, the beauty section is lengthened, and the organization group pictures are more representative. For their great and willing aid the staff is deeply appreciative to Dr. M. I Shawkey, John L. Stender, John I aing, Prof. C. C. Carpenter and all the students of Marshall College who have leaded a helping hand. We hope the student body will be proud of the 1930 Mirabilia, and to the future editors we extend hearty greetings in the building of a better and better book. —The Staff. ONE MUNORCO THREE J.

ONE HUNDRED fIVE m It is an unusual honor as well as a pleasure for the editor of the Mirabilia to sit down and write a few sentences about the editor of the Parthenon. For four long years Mr. Eugene H. Brown, or just Gene, as he is known by his hundreds of friends on the campus, has held responsible positions on the Parthenon and has seen it improve each year as Marshall College becomes greater and greater. Beginning as sports editor in his Freshman year, Gene has been sports editor, news editor, managing editor and editor-in-chief respectively. In all of these positions he has served with honor to himself and the publication. Besides being connected with the Parthenon during the past four years, Mr. Brown has found time to extend his interest and personality in other school activities. He is a member of the Marshall College Press Club, member of the Student Council, has served as member of the Assembly Committee, has served as member of the Inter-Fraternity Council, is a member of the Phi Kappa Nu fraternity and is always around when there is something to be done for Marshall College. In concluding let me say that the Parthenon has had and will have great students of journalism as editors; but in my humble opinion and after a few years have passed, Gene Brown will be, and remain, the peer of them all. —The Editor.

In addition, efforts have been made to increase reader interest by the use of regular features. When the second semester is completed, thirty issues of The Parthenon will have been published and distributed. Among these were several extra page editions, including a special issue for the State Educational Association convention (6.000 copies) Homecoming-Thanksgiving Day edition (4.500 copies), an Alumni edition (5,000 copies), and a commencement edition (3.000 copies). In addition, a poll of student and faculty opinion on the subject of national prohibition was conducted. Tt was the first poll of such a nature ever conducted in the state. Paul Walker Long, acting director of the Department of Journalism, in the absence of Prof. William Page Pitt, acted as faculty advisor this year. Hearty cooperation between the staff and the Journalism Department was enjoyed. The classes of Prof. H. R. Pinckard aided materially in the gathering of news. Every student who enrolls in Marshall College pays each semester a fee of 75 cents for his subscription to the Parthenon. During the year now being completed. The Parthenon has never fallen below a circulation of 1.500. Each Wednesday, the publication date, students this year have waited anxiously for their paper, and it is needless to say that student interest in the paper this year has far surpassed that of any other in the history of the journal. The Parthenon is a member of the Intercollegiate Press Association of West Virginia. In the year 1928-29, A. P. Bryan, editor, was president of the association, and Eugene IT. Brown, at that time managing editor, was executive secretary. At the convention held in March at Elkins. Bob Jamison, sport editor, was elected to succeed Brown as executive secretary. The convention next year will l e held at Montgomery (New River State). At this meeting the editions of The Parthenon this year will be judged. At Mirabilia press time, the results of last year's contest were not available for publication. one hundred seven ONI HUNDRED CIOMT E. TURNER STUMP Head of Speech Department When one thinks of speech at Marshall College, one’s mind automatically turns to E. Turner Stump. This is only a natural and logical process of thought because the history of the creation and development of the speech department is the story of Professor Stump’s life for those few years. The name of E. Turner Stump and excellence in speech have become almost synonymous terms here at Marshall. To fully appreciate the work and ability of Professor Stump one must understand what he has done. Five years ago he came to Marshall as a part-time professor, assuming the responsibility for the development of the speech department in addition to his arduous duties as pastor of the First Congregational Church of Ceredo. Today Marshall’s speech department employs two full-time professors, two student assistants, and has enrolled annually over 500 students. The Student Council of Marshall College this year presented Mr. Stump with an award for having “rendered the most beneficial service and done the most outstanding work” of any member of the college faculty. This was given in recognition of the rapid growth of the College Theatre, which he organized and directs, and for the success of the college debaters and orators. Professor Stump is also Grand Director (National President) of the Alpha Psi Omega dramatic fraternity, the largest honorary dramatic organization in existence; a member of Delta Tau Delta, national social; Theta Alpha Phi, national dramatic; and Tau Kappa Alpha, national forensic fraternity. Marshall College is wondering what his next accomplishment will be. out Musnnrs nine Present Opportunity v A' Speakihr on “Present Opportunity,” Tim Hollandsworth, Senior in the College of Arts and Sciences, won the West Virginia Inter-Collegiate Oratorical Contest held at Fairmont, March 7. Mr. Hollandsworth was adjudged first place in both the preliminaries and finals; in the final contest he was declared winner by acclamation. Tim journeyed to Ypsi-lanti, Mich., on April 11, where he represented West Virginia in the Interstate Oratorical Contest. Although Muskingum College won this meet, Tim was the recipient of universal praise from the judges and critics. Although Marshall College has always been able to reach the finals in the state contests since joining the West Virginia Inter-Collegiate Forensic Association five years ago, this is the first time that a Marshall representative has been recognized as the outstanding orator. Hollandsworth’s victory is more significant because West Virginia Wesleyan’s orator, who was defeated by Tim, was proclaimed National Woman’s Champion at a contest at Wichita, Kansas. Through his excellent showing at the interstate contest and his decisive victory over America’s best college woman speaker, Tim has established himself as an orator of unusual ability. In closing his speech Tim said, “Oh, my friends, opportunity is not dead. In its multiplex form it stands on every side of modern youth beckoning him, urging him, guiding him on. Business and diplomacy, electricity and mechanics, medicine and the uncounted hosts which follow these await your assistance. The field is yours, and opportunity calls you to success.” Hollandsworth, besides being an orator of exceptional abality, is one of Marshall’s outstanding character actors. He is president of the Alpha Theta Chi fraternity, a member of Alpha Psi Omega dramatic fraternity, the Harlequin Club, the College Theatre, and president of the Senior Class. Prof. E. Turner Stump, head of the Speech Department, coached Mr. Hollandsworth in the oration. ONE HUNDRED TEN ONE HUNDRED ELEVEN Debate From the standpoint of victories and defeats, Marshall College stands near the top in West Virginia collegiate debating circles. Arguing on two questions, the Marshall squad chalked up four victories against one defeat; other contests were nondecision. The girls team lost to West Virginia Wesleyan, who later defeated some of the leading western colleges and universities on a tour through to Kansas. On the question: “Resolved, That the attempt to direct the public conscience by legislation is futile,” Marshall defeated Concord College, West Virginia Wesleyan men, and Glcnville, hut lost to the West Virginia Wesleyan girls. Waynesburg College was defeated by Marshall on, “Resolved, That the evils of the machine age outweigh its benefits.” Probably the most unique system of debating ever used at Marshall was installed this year when Marshall met the University of Kentucky in a series of extemporaneous debates before high school audiences in the vicinity of Huntington. A team representing each institution would go to the high school not knowing which side of the question it was to uphold. Just before the contest was to start, a coin would be tossed to decide which side of the proposition each team would discuss. However, it didn’t actually matter because both sides of the question had to In- debated by both teams so that all might have an equal chance. A contest would Ik held at one school in the morning and another in the afternoon with the same two teams talking, but taking different sides. The question discussed was, “Can the public conscience lx directed by legislation?” Marshall’s squad is composed of Evelyn Riedel. Alta Carpenter. Virginia Wagner. Charles Caldwell, Stanley Gould, Faye Campbell. Jay Hutchinson and Otis Ranson. G. Harry Wright, assistant professor of speech, is head coach. ONE HUNDRED TWELVE The College Theatre The year 1929-30 marked the introduction of a new regime in Marshall College dramatics. Due largely to the reputation built up by the college players last year, the College Theatre was able to start the current year assured of financial success. The unprecedented number joining the theatre organization furnished Director Stump a medium from which he could select a cast for any type of play. “Hay Fever” by Noel Coward, the initial performance of the season, was greeted by theatre-goers as a great comedy well presented. The noticeable improvement in stage effects over last year’s productions was largely due to the work of G. Harry Wright, technical director, who made his debut in College Theatre work this year. “Liliom,” Franz Molnar’s great poem of life, was considered by critics to be Marshall’s outstanding play of recent years. The acting of the cast of over forty people, and especially of George Todd, as Liliom, was far above the average for any college play. The seven complete sets necessary for staging the play were changed in less time than is usually required by professionals. “Cock Robin,” by Elmer Rice and Phillip Barry, a recent New York hit, marked the introduction of the double cast system at Marshall. “Cock Robin” was also the first play ever to be given two nights by a Marshall cast. “Juno and the Paycock,” by Sean O'Casey, which concluded the major productions for the College Theatre group, was a fitting climax for a successful season. This story of the trials and errors of a happy-go-lucky Irish family touched the hearts of the Marshall audience as it had those of thousands before. The Freshman Players, organized by Prof. G. Harry Wright, did excellent work in the priduction of several one-act plays. “Thank You Doctor,” “When the Horns Blow,” and “Suppressed Desires” were worked out and presented by the Freshmen at various places in the vicinity of Huntington. Freshman Players are also furnishing Director Stump’s star College Theatre actors keen competition in major productions. In fact, several of the casts included Freshmen. Other one-act plays given during the year were: “The Valiant,” “Good Medicine,” “Dust of the Road,” and “Dawn.” The Student Council award given to the most outstanding actor or actress of the year was presented to Miss Hite Wilson, a Senior in the Arts College.

However, since the formation of The College Theatre, Harlequin is no longer a producing organization. It still has for its purpose the advancement of dramatics in all its phases; and in view of this fact, it still exists as the major part of College Theatre. Admission to Harlequin is granted only to those who have merited membership through work in the Freshman Players (organization for Freshmen) or The College Theatre.

It serves as a medium lor bringing the commercial student into closer range of the business and commercial fields. Since its organization the chamber has been interested in promoting many activities that have been very purposeful. The state typewriting contest, which is held annually at Marshall College, has been unusually successful. Each year the chamber conducts scientific surveys which are mostly confined to the southern part of the state and the city of Hunting-ton. The retail trade survey of this year has been commented upon by good authority as very efficiently carried out ; and, in view of this fact, Marshall College has gained prestige. Besides these surveys, the chamber desires to extend its services to any phase of college activity which seeks to promote its general welfare. The work of the Chamber of Commerce is conducted through the entire commercial department of the college. The department is subdivided into committees of merchandizing, clerical, industrial, accounting, banking, insurance and economics.

Marshall Practice House Did you ever know that the Home Economics majors actually put into practice just what they have learned? Well, they do in a nice, cozy attractive, green and white cottage at 1729 Third Avenue, and do the girls work, are they good cooks and good housekeepers? Some day, stop in and see for yourself. For a period of four weeks the girls live and keep house for a family of six. One week as cook, another as waitress, a third week as housekeeper and a fourth week as hostess. Getting up at o’clock in the morning is a task when it’s cold and dark outside. Then you wash dishes, mop the floors and do a family washing until you feel as if you were the most imposed-upon creature in the world, but alas! life is not so cruel. Really, being in the practice house is a new thrilling, exciting, and ever-lasting adventure. We like being Home Economics majors, how about it, girls? And here are some characteristics of a Home Economics girl: She is hospitable, resourceful, healthy, thrifty, helpful, and thoughtful. She has poise, she is neat, orderly, and dresses smartly. She is honest and loyal, and is a home lover. She is clean in word, thought, and deed. ikj a - ONE HUNDRED TWENTY.SIX The Classical Association is composed of students who have had two years high school Latin or who have enrolled in the Greek or Latin departments at Marshall.

Its purpose is to promote cooperation and friendship among the fraternities, control rushing rules and any other matters which affects the Greek groups. During the past year the council to a large extent lived up to the above purposes. A new set of rushing rules were applied at the beginning of the year and have worked successfully: a scholarship cup, through the aid of Dean J. B. Shouse, was secured and awarded for the first time to the Alpha Kappa Pi fraternity; a baseball league was organized in the spring and at the time of publication all the fraternities are making preparations for strong nines, and I believe there has existed better amicable spirit of relationship than in former years. Mr. John Stender, personnel director, has aided the council in several instances.

Three years ago when 1 matriculated at Marshall College, 1 well remember the old frat houses along Third Avenue. Since then there has been a drift to superior, roomier, and more substantial homes. The Marshall fraternities of 1930 are larger and better financially. r ') In this same period we have seen three additional fraternities come on the campus: The Kappa Alpha, formerly Zeta Phi; Alpha Kappa Pi, formerly Sigma Psi; and Delta Kappa Phi, which was organized at Marshall under the leadership of Bert Anderson with the Alpha chapter locat-ed here. As retiring president of the Inter-Fraternity Council, I say that it has indeed been a pleasure as well as an honor to work with the council representatives and sec during the past two or three years such rapid progress among the frat groups.

(Less) HAWLEY Athletic Director With the coming of Roy M. “Legs’ Hawley to the dictatorship of Marshall athletics, which happened simultaneously with the sudden academic growth of the institution, things, athletically speaking, have literally “hummed” over around the gymnasium. His was the job of putting Marshall College on the athletic map, which he proceeded to do upon assuming command. Publicity was needed; Legs got it. More athletes needed to be attracted to the school; Legs attracted them. Thus it goes. When he felt that Marshall was ready for the bigger game, engagements were scheduled, with results that startled even the most ardent fans. During the past seasons such schools as Wittenberg, John Carroll, Ohio Wesleyan, West Virginia Wesleyan, Ohio State, West Virginia University, Notre Dame, Washington and Lee, Virginia Polytechnic, were scheduled, besides a long list of others. Legs was the man to fill the breach—the man of the hour—for Marshall College, and there is no doubt that it is due to his executive and organizing abilities that Marshall College has risen to its place in intercollegiate athletics. And if the record of the past is any sort of a criterion, the fame of Marshall College shall continue to be augmented to still greater heights under the direction of I,egs Hawley. ONE HUNDRED SEVENTY-TWO MANAGER RUSSELL HICKS SHAFER MAUI.BETSCH STUART Football Coaches ONI. HUNDRKO SF. VTNTY- John F. Man I hot sell, who serving as head football coach this year, gave Marshall another successful season on the gridiron. Maully came to Marshall this past fall from Oklahoma A. M„ where for the past eight years he had served as coach of football, basketball and baseball. In succeeding Coach Trusty Tallman he had full charge of football and track, and in addition was supervisor of an intra-mural program which this year was run on a larger basis than ever before. Maully came to Marshall with a national reputation gained by his coaching experiences for twelve years in the state of Oklahoma and with the personal honor of having been named halfback on the late Walter Camp’s All-American football team in 191 I when he was playing his first year as a member of the University of Michigan eleven. lie was chosen for the Big Green football coach over a large list of candidates and coincidentally was the second All-American player who was considered for the position. He has also been signed for the 19:50 season and prospects point to even a bettor team than that of the past season when we lost only three games of the nine played. Penn State, Grove City and Wesleyan were the only teams to defeat the Big Green under Maulbetsch, and while losing to the Penn State Lions a fitting tribute was paid to Maully when Coach Hugo Bezdek described the Marshall passing attack as the best seen at State College since the famous Notre Dame team played there four years ago. In addition to his All-American honors he was named as an All-State player on each of his four years in high school, and was captain of the Freshmen team his first year at University of Michigan. ONE MUNOMO SEVENTY.TOON HEAD COACH .JOHN MAULBETSCH ONE HUNDRED SEVENTY-EIVE Varsity M Club The Varsity M Association composed of men who have won their 101101’ in athletics have completed the most successful year in their history. After being dormant for several years the club re-organized March IS, 1929, and elected Johnny Watson president, Marvin Laird vice-president, and Tommy Stark secretary and treasurer. At present the membership totals 28 actives with eight honorary members. The honorary members arc men who have done something for the betterment of athletics at Marshall. They are: Dr. M. P. Shawkey, president of Marshall; Dr. Carl G. Campbell, coach of tennis; Roy M. Hawley, director of athletics; Charles “Trusty” Tallman, former football coach; John D. Stuart, basketball and baseball coach; Sereno Shafer, wrestling coach; John F. Maulbctsch, football and track coach ; and Luther Long, general manager of the Huntington Publishing Company. Extra activities of the club include the annual stunt night which is featured by a physical education demonstration and their annual banquet. The main purpose of the association being set forth in their pledge: “To create a stronger bond of fellowship and to promote athletics in Marshall.” The requirements for winning a letter in the various sports have also been established by the club through recommendations to the Athletic Board and in addition they pass on those athletes who should receive such awards. Only recognized letter men are eligible for membership. MEMBKRS Allen Huskirk Chrastina D’Auito Fjtch Gilmore Humphries Hump Laird I’.

For weeks prior to the opening of school in September the squad spent many long and seemingly tiresome hours of drilling and punting under the watchful eyes of the new head coach, John F. Maulbetsch, of All-American fame. At the opening of school several famed outstanding scholastic stars were present for the practices that were being held on the old Marshall field. The season of 1920 was the hardest that has ever been on the schedule of the Thundering Herd, and they emerged from the nine gridiron battles that were fought on foreign and home fields with five victories, one tie, and three defeats. The three setbacks coming from Penn State College, drove City College and West Virginia Wesleyan. Three of the games were played under foreign skies, and two of the three such games were the first meeting of The Herd with those teams; namely, Penn State and ONE HUNCHED SEVENTY.CIOHT Kmory-IIenry. Perhaps, too much was expected from the Herd, but regardless of the expectations of the Marshal!ites and other fans, the team delivered the goods. Glcnvillc State Normal fell in defeat to the Thundering Herd for tlu first game of the year. The final score was 10-6. The skies above were blue and Old Sol was coming down with the intenseness of summertime, in this game every one of the regulars and substitutes saw service and even after the team on the field was composed of practically second and third string men scores were piled up just the same. Center “Didge” Hensley was injured in this game and was out until the Grove City game. Captain Stark scored the first touchdown for the Herd of the season of 1020. others making touchdowns were: Hunter, Woodrum, Smith and Wilson. Many instances of this game will never lx forgotten by the members of the teams and others. The following week the Golden Eagles of Morris Harvey College fell before the crushing Herd. Much credit is due to the Eagles for their plucky fighting even though they knew tlu game was hopeless, yet wishing for a “break” which never came. Again the entire Marshall squad saw service on the gridiron and to pick an individual star of the game '11-4 v - - . ; h m V M k: .

The weather was ideal and there was more support from the Marshall fans than any other game. The score on the famous board showed the Herd at the top of the pile to the tune of 59-6. Touchdowns were made by Stark, Wilson, R. McCoy, Hunter, Smith, D’Auito, Laird and Woodrum. After scoring 99 points in two games the team journeyed to the lair of the Penn State Lions at State College and fell in honorable defeat 26-7, on October 12. Many students and loyal fans motored or hitchhiked to the scene of the game. The Herd being minus the regular center, Jelf Rife was forced to fill the key position. Had Marshall been able to stop the rushes of the Lions over center and guards, perhaps the score would have been a third victory for the wearers of the Green and White. This was the first time that Marshall had ever played Penn State and it is with intense interest that the fans are waiting for the game in 1930 at State College. The lone touchdown for Marshall was made by Hunter from a pass from the quarterback. The fourth game of the year was fought with Bethany College at Bethany. Many favorable and unfavorable comments have been said of the field by the fans who followed the Herd and the Marshall fans de- One hundred eighty CLYDE ALFORD Fullback MARVIX LAIRD End GEORGE KOZAK Tackle dared that if the field had been more like a gridiron instead of a lopsided cow pasture the score would have apparently ended with Marshall having a much larger margin. The handicaps under which the Green and White played were more than one. The close score of 8-0 does not, in reality, show that the I.isons were that near equal to the Herd. Holding true to mid-season form the Herd downed the highly touted team from the University of Louisville, 25-6 on October 20. During the game there were many thrills that caused the stands to rise and give cheers for both teams. The weather for this game was ideal and according to reports from the office of the Athletic Director, the filled stadium was absolutely satisfactory. A nice cheering squad came from the University of Louisville and they exchanged cheers and honors with the backers of the Big Green. Again Hunter and Stark turned in especial good work and to Hunter goes the laurels for copping the honors of the day. We have the University of Louisville for 1930. Loyal fans, students, the band and the team boarded the C. (). train at Huntington for the Kmory-Henry game at Bluefieid, W. Va.

Flaying in a literal sea of mud the Wasps and the Herd fought to a 0-0 tie. The substitutes saw service in this game and more than once both teams deserved a touchdown. Homer McCoy turned in his best game of the season, lighting against the Wasps. Next fall we again meet the Wasps at Illuelield and may we avenge the 0-0 tie. Two days prior to Armistice Day the Fairmont Teachers College met the Thundering Herd on the home field, and after tin close of the battle, or meelee, the score was a whitewash, :� !)-o.

The passing, punting and running of the entire Marshall team made the day end with the students saying. “This is the end of a perfect day.” On November 16 the Thundering Herd played its best game of ball for the year 1929. Odds were against the Big Green from the start, yet they did not give up when the heavy and hard-hitting Grove City College team gave them a 7-6 defeat. The entire line bore the brunt of the Grove City attack, but to Captain Stark and his buddies in the backfield a great amount of credit must lx given as they stopped the fast Waleski more than once when it would have meant defeat by more than one point. Without a doubt the Grove City team was the best all-round football machine that has ever faced the Herd during the season. Tommy Stark made the lone six points for Marshall and Hunter’s kick going wide decided the game. To Captain Rankin and his crew we give much credit and hope that some day we can again see Grove City on Fairfield Stadium. I si m, h V.

COACH STUART 5 LOGAN, MANAGER Baskelball Review As u mammoth crowd packed the Big Green gym to see Marshall come from behind and take a 41-34 victory from their old rivals, the Golden Eagles of Morris Harvey in the closing game of the year, they saw entering the record ks not one of the most successful, but the most successful court season in the history of Marshall College. Of course the members of the squad who scored the points in each game were directly responsible for the record of 12 victories and three defeats, but for their performances you can heap loads of credit upon the shoulders if Coach Johnny Stuart and then vou would not be praising to the degree which he deserves. With Rogers and Quillan missing from the 11 29 squad Coach Stuart started the the season with four regulars, Wilson. Stark. Watson and Laird, who again came through to retain their respective positions. It looked like a great year with these four men ready for another court season, but without discounting their wonderful work the real sensation of the 1930 campaign came with Ramey Hunter, star freshman forward, who filled the only vacant berth on tin- squad and displayed such a great offensive ability that he led the team in scoring with a total fo 171 p rints. “Pete” Wilson, who led the West Virginia Conference in scoring in 11 29, was second with a total of 129, while Johnny Watson ran third, totaling 120. However. Johnny did not take part in the final two games; he signed a c ntract with the Detroit Tigers of the American League, and departed for their training camp at Tampa, Fla., on March 3. With the exception of these two games the same five. Hunter. Wilson. Watson. Stark and Laird started and played most of every game during the season. After a squad of some forty men had been narrowed down. Coach Stuart retained Ramey Hunter. Pete Wilson. Johnny Watson. Tommy Stark, Martin Laird, Byron Morris, Ram Rogers. Jeff Rife, Homer McCoy, Bud DuBois, and DuMont Austin as his varsity players for the remainder of the season. Hunter and Wila� n were the outstanding forward candidates and won these positions in an easy fashion, however, when it became necessary Hunter was used at center and Stark, who with Laird held down the guard posts, was moved up to forward. Watson drew the pivot assignment and performed in great style in every game up until the time he left for training camp. Of the substitutes Morris and Austin were used at forward, McCoy at center and Rogers, Rife and DuBois nt guards. Opening the season with a 39-18 victory over Captain Jackie McKown's Alumni ONE HUNDRED NINETY five , thi Big Green were olT to a great record and copped their second game from the Golden Bears of New River State by a score of 53 21. After these two games at home the Herd t:ok to the road for a trip to the northern part of the state, where they played three conference games, meeting Fairmont. W. Va., Wesleyan, and Salem College. 1928 conference champs on successive nights. Fairmont scored one of the three victories gained over Marshall during the season when they came from behind to loop a field goal in the last minute of play and squeeze out a slim one point win bythescore of 21-23. This setback put the necessary light into Coach Stuart's charges and they won the remaining two games of their trip. Wesleyan bowed to the Big Green by the score of 34-23. which by the way, was the same score by which the Bobcats downed Marshall in the game played at Buckhannon last year. Salem bit the dust in the final game by a 36-21 count. This brought the team back to their home court where they added two more victories to their list by winning from Morris Harvey and Concord College. The Golden Eagles failed ta hit their usual speedy style and after holding them to three points in the first half the Bit Green won easily by a score of 32-19. The Mountain I.ions of oncord who always have a strong court five presented a fast moving combination that threatened for a time to finish in front of Coach Stuart’s tossors. Hunter and Watson, however, laid down a barrage of field goals that turned the tide to Marshall by the score of 10-31. A journey to Montgomery for a return game with New River State resulted in another Big Green victory by the score of 50-24, and brought the Marshall string of wins to seven, with only one defeat. Fairmont and Salem provided the next home attraction for Coach Stuart’s fast-fiying court five and two more wins were added to the list. It was the second win of the season over Salem who were defending their West Virginia Conference championship honors. Again it was Ramey Hunter who led the way to the basket with a total of 16 points as the Big Green got revenge for their only defeat thus far during the season by downing Fnirm nt 45-34. Salem went down under a score of 33-23 after holding a slim two-point advantage at the end of the first half. With nine victories and one defeat to their credit. Coach Stuart t« ok his team to Barboursville. where they turned back the Golden Eagles of Morris Harvey to the tune of 19-32. Returning home for the feature game of their home schedule, the Big Green tossers turned in the most impressive victory of the season when they downed the Bobcats of West Virginia Wesleyan by a 36-28 score. In more ways than one this was the outstanding game of the year for Marshall as it drew the largest crowd that ever saw a basketball game in Huntington, and it was necessary to play it at Vanity Fair instead of Marshall gym in order to take care of the more than 1800 fans who witnessed Coach Stuart’s crew perform to perfection in a late rally to gain a six-point victory. It was the second victory of the ONC HUNDRED NINETY ONE year for Marshall over Wesleyan on the hardwood court and partly made up for the defeat suffered last Thanksgiving in football. Although a non-fonference game, the Thundering Herd lost a heart-breaker to West Virginia University by the score of 18-35 in the last away-from-home-gamc of the year. Glenvillo won their right to a claim on the conference championship for 1930 when they nosed out Marshall in another game played at Vanity Fair, by the score of 36-32. Glenvillo was undefeated at this time and sailing high, wide and handsome for top honors in the championship race. They later dropped a verdict to Concord and finished the season with a slim one-game advantage over Marshall for the West Virginia Conference championship. Marshall brought their season to a close the night before the annual high school basketball tournament when they copped their third straight victory from Morris Harvey by the score of 41 34. With the exception of the defeat by West Virginia University this left the Big Green with only two set-backs to their credit to finish in second place. A one-point defeat by Fairmont and a four-point defeat by Glenville were the only blots. Of the eleven men who took part in the games this year all but three will be back for the 1931 campaign and from all indications next year’s five should overshadow the great work of the 1930 team. Johnny Watson, who left school for a career in the big leagues, is the only regular who will be absent next year, while the other two are Homer McCoy, substitute center, and Bud Du Buis, substitute guard. Ramey Hunter, Pete Wilson, Tommy Stark, Marvin Laird, Byron Morris, Rogers, Jeff Rife, and DuMont Austin are the men who will lie back next year. The season’s record of games won and lost is as follows: Marshall 39; Alumni 18. Marshall 53; New River 21. Marshall 23; Fairmont 4. Marshall 34; Wesleyan 23. Marshall 36; Salem 21.

Johnny would have finished his college work this year but decided to take his chance in the big league, however, he plans to return this fall and complete his work for a degree, lie came to Marshall four years ago from Gary, W. Va., and since that time has grown to be one of the most popular athletes in school in addition to starring in baseball, he also made quite a reputation in both basketball and football. ONI HUNDREO NINETY-FOUR ONE HUNDRED NINETY-FIVE fi '■«p k'vi Baseball Review As customary, this review will be of the 1929 baseball season in which the Marshall College nine won the West Virginia Collegiate Championship, instead of the present season, which has just gotten under way and finds the Big Green running true to form by dropping the first game and then coming back to win their next three starts. Again we find as in basketball. Coach Johnny Stuart giving Marshall the greatest season they have ever enjoved on the diamond. One defeat in the opening game and tt en a record of thirteen straight victories was the mark hung up by the Big Green diamond stars during the 1929 diamond season which they closed with a twin win over Xotre Dame University. Opening the season against Morris Harvey they found that luck was against them end the Golden Eagles got away with an 8-6 victory after a h« ctic ninth inning, which netted them three runs. This thov gained on two hits, an error and several bad plays. Tt was a touch one to lose, but what followed more than made up for this one setback. Morris Harvey proved the victim in the next game as Marshall. Indiind some clever nitching by Earscl Toler, who onlv allowed five hit , turned the Eagles hack with a 5-3 defeat and started the string of victories that ran for the rest of the season. Guy Fisher got revenge for his defeat in the opening game when he turned in a 6-1 v'etorv over Morris Ho evev in th . third nine of the season. Glenville. Fairmont and West Virginia University were downed in order on the annual trin to the northern part of the state. However, all of the games were close and saw the Big Green d� «nlav a fighting team that would not lie defeated. A 3-2 victory over Gh-nviUe onened the trin ami saw Earscl Toler turning in another victory and onh allowing the Pioneers four scattered singles. Carter’s trin' --marine Toler counted for Marshall’s first run and doubles bv Watson. Ko7.«k and Taird coming in that order resulted in the first two scoring for the other pair of runs Fairmont also gave the Big Green a close shave when they held them to a -� -3 ‘■'•ore. Russell Smith was the mound for Marshall, and while be was touched for eight hits he had them well distributed over the route and Fairmont’s throe runs were aided he Marshall errors. Carter with a home run and Watson with a trinle led the attack for the Big Green. Each scored a run while Kozak and Smith collected the ether two. The sbigfest with West Virginia almost turned into a merrv-go-round and when thn dust had settled Marshall was on ten by a count of 14 to 11. Both teams displayed some heavy hitting, the Mountaineers getting 14 and Marshall collecting 21 safe blow The extra base blows registered bv the Big Green was the feature of the game and the fact that a maturity of them came in oneinnlng is very unusual. Going into the third inning on the short end of a 2-1 count the Big Green staged .a rally that netted them five runs that resulted on five doubles, a single, a base on balls ONI HUNDRED NINCTV-SIX and a sacrifice. Carter opened with a double but was out trying to take third. Noyes drew a base on balls and was sent to second on a sacrifice by Watson. Kozak doubled scoring Noyes, Laird doubled scoring Kozak. Pierson singled scoring I.nird. Binns doubled scoring Pierson. Burgess doubled scoring Binns and Fisher was out on an infield roller. The Mountaineers scored two runs in the second, two in the third and four in the fourth inning to take the lead at eight to six, but the Big Green came back to tie it up at eight all in their half of the fourth. Marshall took the lead with four more runs in the next two innings and two others coming in the final two innings brought their total to 14, while the best the Mountaineers could do was three runs in the last five innings. The other game scheduled with West Virginia on this trip was rained out. Coming back home Kio Grande proved an easy victim for Coach Stuart’s fast flying tossers and they added their sixth win of the season in seven starts by the score of 11-2. In the third Morris Harvey game of the season Guy Fisher of Marshall ami Steve Zclazo, of the Eagles gave the fans a reul pitchers battle with the Big Green winning by a 1-0 count. Fisher almost broke into the hall of fame when he limited the Eagles to one hit, that a double coming from the bat of Zclazo. Marshall’s winning run came in the second inning when Kozak opened with a single over second. Laird struck out. Pierson was retired on an infield tap and Gilmore singled to right scoring Kozak. Carter. Watson, Kozak and Gilmore collected the four Marshall hits. In the fifth ami final game of the Morris Harvey series the Big Green turned in another victory by the score of 6-4. Fairmont also became the victim of the Big Green for the second time during the season when they came here and dropped a 5-2 verdict. As in their previous meeting Marshall and West Virginia University were only able to play one of their two scheduled games because of rain. The Big Green made a clean sweep of the series when they took the Mountaineers into camp to the tune of 6-3. Captain Johnny Watson was the star of this game ns he poled out a home run in the third with the bases ful with what later proved to be the winning runs. The Mountaineers were able to collect three runs in the latter part of the game, but could ONE HUNORrB NIMTY StVlS vVb e. ■ a Vr not overcome the six-run lead set up by the Big Green who opened with a score in the first inning on a double by Carter and a single by Watson. In the third inning Fisher singled to right. Carter attempted to sacrifice but was safe on an error. Noyes laid down a perfect bunt and was safe at first, filling the bases. Watson drove a home run to deep center. Singles by Gilmore and Carter netted the other Big Green tally in the fourth. West Virginia scored one run in the fifth, sixth and seventh innings. With ten victories and but one defeat to their credit, the Marshall tossers started west for a three-game series that would test their strength and bring their season to a close. Jumping over to Ada, Ohio, for the opening game of the trip against Ohio Northern University, they added their eleventh straight victory when they finished on the long end of 12-8 count. Johnny Watson and George Kozak were the stars of the game with two triples each that counted heavy in the Big Green’s run making. Marshall took an early lead with two runs in the first inning when Noyes singled and Watson and Ko .nk tripled. Ohio Northern came hack with three runs in their half but only held their lead a short time as the Big Green cranked the scoring machine in the second to push across five runs tostay out in front the rest of the game. The four-run lead held at this point remained unchanged as each team collected five runs in the remaining seven innings. .Marshall getting two in the fourth, two in the fifth and one in the seventh, while Ohio Northern got one in the fourth, two in the fifth and two in the sixth. Moving over to South Bend. Ind.. for a two-game series with Notre Dame University the Marshall nine brought to a close in a fitting climax the most successful season in the history of the diamond sport at the Big Green school. Karsel Toler was sent to the mound to uphold the honor of Marshall and he came through in line style to hold the Irish to five hits and give the Big Green a 4-3 victory. Johnny Watson, George Kozak and Bill Pierson provided the punch at the bat for the winning scores. Watson singled in the first inning to drive in ( after who had doubled with the first run. Kozak’s single in the third sent Noyes across the plate for the second run and in the fourth inning Watson drew u base on balls anil scored on a double by Kozak. Pierson singled to score Kozak with what later proved to he the winning run. ONC MUNOMKO NINETY - EIGHT Guy Fisher drew the pitching assignment in the final game and backed by airtight playing shut the Irish out to give Marshall a 1-0 victory in the final game of the season and bring the Big Green’s string of victories to 13. Johnny Watson collected two of Marshall’s five hits in this game and also got credit for driving in the winning run with a double in the third inning. After one was down Fisher singled to left. Carter died to left for the second out. Noyes singled to left. Fisher stopping at third. Watson sent a sharp double to center scoring Fisher with the only tally of the game. What might Ik- considered another victory was the annual circus game with the Alumni nine on Commencement day, which ended according to the last check with tin-score keeper something like 8 or 10 to nothing in favor of the Varsity. However Caesar Ferguson, the distinguished judge from Wavne county, who was once a great pitcher at Marshall and University of Michigan, covered himself with glory doing mound duty for the Old Grads,” by holding the West Virginia champs to three hits and one run during the four innings that he pitched. As this year’s Mirabilia goes to press the Marshall nine is off to what looks like another great season and are running true to form, having drapped the opening game to Marietta College by a 1-3 score and have now come back to win the next three. They have hung up a record of collecting 55 runs in the last three games played in which they defeated Morris Harvey 19-1, University of Cincinnati 16-15, and Fairmont College 20-5.

Approximately fifty men answered the first call of Coach Sereno Shafer and after close competitions in many of the weight classes Halbert, Massey, Harrah, Curtis, Binns, Kincaid, Ward, A. Sortet, Bowles and Humphreys found final berths on the team, the weights running from 115 pounds to the unlimited class. Allen was the manager and it is the first time a separate manager has been for wrestling. The first college wrestling match ever held in the Marshall gymnasium was held on February H, when the Big Green Grapplcrs lost a close decision to the fast Waynesburg College team. The large and enthusiastic crowd proved that even though there was competition from other sides, wrestling in Marshall College would soon prove a popular winter sport. Coach Sereno Shafer is to be given unlimited praise for his untiring work and success that he has had with those who were so greatly interested in wrestling. Starting the season with but a few seasoned men he developed a team that not only had regular matches, but exhibition matches as well. Coach Shafer was forced to leave school, just after the close of the wrestling season due to illness and it is hoped that he will be able to return to Marshall in the fall of 1930 and start the third and most glorious year of wrestling in Marshall College.

Marshall College Tennis Team When Coach Carl Campbell issued the call for the 1930 Tennis Team there were fifteen who answered the call, and of this group there were only four who had experience on the tennis squad of 1929. Daily practices were held both on indoor and outdoor courts. All members of the Marshall tennis squad are lower classmen but two. The schedule for the 1930 season is: April 12, Morris Harvey College at Huntington, resulting in a 1-2 victory for the Big Green team; April 19, Charleston Tennis Club at Charleston; April 26, Huntington Tennis Club at Huntington : May 2. Marietta College at Marshall: May 9, pending; May 10. Huntington Tennis Club, home; May 17, Morris Harvey College at Barboursville: May 21. pending; May 29, Marietta College at Marietta: May 31, Charleston Tennis Club at Huntington. The tennis team for the year of 1930 has the honor and distinction of having for the first time a girl on the team, that girl being Miss Lucy Newberry, the champion of West Virginia for two years and the Marshall girls champion for 1929. The squad personnel is: Coach Carl Campbell, Wilkinson. Turner, Holton, Newberry. Arnett, Hamlin. Brothers, lxnve, Schmauch, Walls, Dobos, Mayberry, Brubeck, Burgess, Arnott and Manager Starkey. TWO HUNDRED THREE Track After a lapse of many years track has again been added to the sports program of Marshall College and the 1930 Big Green cinder stars opened their season with a 74-61 victory over the West Virginia Wesleyan Bobcats. This is the only meet that was hold up until the time the Mirabilia went to press but it gave indications that Coach Johnny Maulbetsch would have a great collection of stars before season was over. Marshall has been graced with some real good track material in recent years but the lack of a place to perform has hampered any work in this direction. With Fairfield Stadium now available the return of the old track and field meets should become quite popular in a few years. At this time it is a little early to say just who the stars of this year’s track squad will be but Coach Maulbetsch will collect plenty of points with such men as Pete Woodrum, Raymond and Homer McCoy, Ram Rogers, Ramey Hunter, Lyle McComas, Otho Greenlee, Orlo Connor, Allen Peterson, Jack Metree, Ben Bush and Alva Ball. In addition to the dual meets the entire squad will go to the first annual West Virginia Conference meet to be staged at Morgantown under the auspices of West Virginia University on Friday and Saturday, May 9 and 10. IWO HUNDRED FOUR Intra-Mural Sports ALPHA TIIETA CHI “A” TEAM Top Row: Hcnzman, Noyes (coach), Brubcck. Bottom Row: Bump, Spotts. Bush. An unusual interest has been shown in the past two or three years in intra-mural athletics, and this situation is a matter much desired by the college and students. It tends to make better men and women and creates competition among the various groups. The chief sports are: Basketball, wrestling and track. Added to the number this year is baseball. Through the Inter-Fraternity Council a league was organized and a schedule arranged with each fraternity playing each other. To the winner of each sport there is given a cup with two consecutive wins or any three times necessary for permanent possession. Then, the organization having the highest percentage for the year for all the sports receives the Student Council victory trophy. Two consecutive wins or any three times is necessary for the council trophy. During the past year a greater interest was shown in basketball than any other sport. Competition was keen and some very good teams were entered in the round tournament. There were two divisions: Class “A” and class “li” teams. TWO MUNOKtl) If i if r-'iv ■ ALPHA THETA CHI B” TEAM Top Row: Laird (coach), Jackson, Noyes, Smith. Bottom Row: Greenlee, Alford, Davenport. The Alpha Theta Chi fraternity, winners of last year’s basketball cup, were again easily the victors in both class “A” and “B” divisions. Wrestling for 1930 was not carried out, due to the sudden illness and withdrawal from college of Coach Sereno Shafer. The Alpha Theta Chi fraternity repeated their 1929 performance and won the intra-mural track meet; the Kappa Alpha fraternity being second. Thus Alpha Theta Chi is the permanent possessor of the basketball and track cups. At press time for the Mirabilia the inter-fraternity baseball league is just getting under way, and from the interest being shown by the fraternities the league seems certain to be a success. Intra-mural athletics for this year have been greatly aided by the loyal and consistent services of Coach Maulbetsch. TWO HONORED SIX two Nusnnco stvrN ININ OJMONnH OM1 The Beauty Contest The annual Mirabilia beauty contest and ball for 1930 marked a new step in such events at Marshall College. The matter was strictly a student affair; and from the observation of the writer, who has more or less closely noticed the races in the past two or three years, the whole afTair was one of the greatest, if not the most outstanding, in the history of the school, as well as the cleanest, honest and straightest pulchritude election. The contest was directly under the supervision of the Student Council and the Mirabilia ball was sponsored by the council for the year book. On February 26, in the class meetings of the four classes there were elected, from a list of nominees, two girls who represented their respective classes in the entire student body election on March 12. These eight beauties were: Seniors—Kloise Magee and Mary Frances Davis; Juniors— Lelia Hill and Nancy Wood; Sophomores—Louise McMahon and Jene Leckie; Freshmen—Lucy Diggs Proctor and Beryl Pomeroy. In the election on March 12, Miss Lelia Hill, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. C. Hill of Ronceverte, W. Va., and member of the Pi Kappa Sigma Sorority was elected “Miss Marshall” for 1929-30. One of the outstanding features was the secrecy surrounding the winner which was not announced until March 14, at the Mirabilia Beauty Ball. The coronation ceremonies were preceded by a grand march, led by Harry Wolfe, student president, and his sister, Miss Frances Wolfe. The honor of crowning the “Miss Marshall” for 1930 was given to President M. P. Shawkey, who graciously performed the duties and announced the winner, presenting Miss Hill with a fine loving cup as a gift from the Student Council and Mirabilia. Miss Hill represented Marshall College in the Annual Ohio River Apple Blossom Festival held at Point Pleasant.

Hope everybody has a great year. This goes for all the new faculty members too. Beware, you Freshmen, we mean business around here. Yes—the Thundering Herd is ready to crash through, and Glenville State is the first victim. President Harry Wolfe was formally inaugurated into the office of student president by our president. Marshall mourns the sudden death of one who held a sturdy faith, and will always be Marshall’s—Dr. Clarence Everett Haworth. The Y.W. and Y.M.C.A. had a grand success in their reception for the Freshmen, and 1 know of some Juniors and Seniors who were glad to bow to such an occasion. The fraternities have had their squabbles—rushing is over. Every organization is pleased. We have lost Morton Watson, and we shall always feel the loss because he was a prominent youth who was active and had a smile for everybody. The “Prexy” says we can have our assemblies back, and we’ll support every one, wont we? Class elections are on, plays are on, contracts for Morrow Hall are on, and Marshall is going on, and on, and on. Everybody was invited to the K.A. dance which was given September 27.

Fairmont State loses to the Thundering Held by an overwhelming score. What's the use to fuss about the fraternity assembly being canceled? That’s nothing; let’s go on to something bigger. The grand and glorious homecoming, and it was a giant celebration. Result of Thundering Herd and Grove City was 7-( in favor of Grove City. The Big Turkey Day game suited the Marshallites and the Victory Ball O.K. too. Miss Janet Miller was elected “Victory Queen.” A happy Thanksgiving holiday season was enjoyed by all.
