Page Forty-three Page Forty-four jenior lass mstorg 53 W Vx And now in a few lines we will give you a history of the most wonderful class that ever entered tithis historic institution. Classes have gone and classes will come, but none will ever attain the distinction we have attained or be missed as we will be missed. From the bright September day, nineteen hundred and three, when we made our initial appearance at Miami, until the present time, nineteen hundred and seven has always been especially noted for the tthappy-go-luekyi, spirit with which it received all Victories and defeats. We can, however, boast of the fact that Victories have been numerous and defeats scarce. TheFreshman Class of 1903, in number far exceeded the expec- tations of our enthusiastic president; in fact, was the largest Class that ever entered Miami, and we must admit, not quite so verdant as some classes. At the kind suggestion of the faculty, we gave up the time-honored tttower rushil and entered with added Vigor into a more gentle strife 011 the gridiron. The Sophomores were easily overcome and a high score run up. One Of the most pleasant surprises of our Freshman year was the neat, little Ml bill that was handed to us for paint, repairing, and a dilapidated fish-wagon. On the evening preceding the football game the boys of the class had enjoyed a little ttbarbarism? As Sophs, we were unfortunate enough to be overcome by the new Freshman Class, but it could by no means be considered an overwhelming defeat when you consider that they had double our number and all other advantages on their side, but they honestly defeated us and we willingly give tthonor where honor is due? When we recognized ttJuniori, 0n the northeast corner of our registration cards, we added the necessary dignity which is always becoming to those of that rank. We started the custom of a Junior Prom, which to our sorrow we see is not carried out by the Q present Junior Class. Freshmen and Sophomores havenit experi- ence enough and Seniors haven,t time enough for society, so that function must fall to the Juniors. We gladly accepted the respon- sibility and, Will admit, made quite a success of it. Our Recensio far surpassed the one gotten out by the Class of 1906, and theirs was not bad by any means. We entered the Senior Class forty strong but the faculty seemed to think that too large a class was not beneficial to the welfare of the institution, for three of our mighty band iishow up missing? What has been U. CBS, Ann Arboris, and Ohio Stateis gain most certainly has been Miamits loss. Messrs. Gaines and Eidemiller are gone for good, but we hope to welcome Messrs. Markley and Lawrence back for the spring term. Our great interest in, and love for Miami causes us to pause in the midst of all our rejoicing and wonder What will she do With- out us? Who can take the places of MacLaughlin, Meeks, Swan, and Schweickart in the orchestra? What Will football do Without Stephenson and Hartle; baseball Without VVeHiver, MacLaughlin, Markley, and Robinson; Y. M. C. A. Without Ralston, Pye, Swan, and Schweickart; Y. W. C. A. without Misses Green, Miller, and Brandenburg; the Honor Roll Without Colburn and Welliver, and the many other organizations that will suffer similar loss? It certainly is a serious question, and Miami has our heartfelt sym- pathy. Nineteen Hundred and Seven also boasts of an inventor, Mr. Barrow; and Champion sprinter, Mr. Markley; and a political leader, Mr. Welliver; and a professor, Mr. Boring. This is but a brief outline of what. might be said of this class, but time and modesty prevent our saying more. The reader can, however, form some conception of our value and realize how Miami will mourn for the class of 1907. C. F. - r .- 'I..

Page Fifty-seven janior Q55 Once every generation Miami produces a class which has within it the men and women who are destined to become famous. No dif- ficulties are unconquerable, no obstacles impassible, no obstruction insurmountable to such a class. Victory is blazoned on their bane ner and they must bear it aloft and fulfill their destiny. So it is with the class of Nineteen Hundred Eight. We would wish for the sake of the Greater Miami that. these periods of great classes were oftener, but greatness is rare, and when fou lid in such whole- sale quantities as in the Junior Class it is still more rare. Starting with an enrollment of sixty or more, the class to-day numbers less than forty. This loss is not due to a dislike of the class nor to a desire for any other class, but to the fact that ours is so high a standard of exeellency in scholarship, behavior, etc., that many who could not measure up to that standard have gone elsewhere. We excel not in. one department alone, but in all-physical, mental, and spiritual-all are led and upheld by Juniors. The mem- bers of our class have won more medals on the track in the past three years than any other class; have gained fame in debate; are Page Fifty-ez'ght istorg .- learned in science; are masters of philosophy; have achieved re- nown as organizers, and are preeminent in every phase of college life. We have the unique record of having never been defeated in a class rush, a thing which no other class can boast of. We initiated the new form of flag rush and are always guided by wholesome advice, our own judgment, and the welfare of the University. No class stands closer to the professors and the president, for they never fail to recite when called upon and never ttcutii without a good reason. Miami is glad that she will be brightened for one more year by the presence of this class, but when the time for parting comes she will be both glad and sorry. Sorry because she will miss their cheery presence, and glad because she will be sending out a class which will represent the Greater Miami in a way in which she deserves to be represented and in a way the world will pay trib- ute to. So, if ttcoming events cast their shadows before? i08 is a class of future honor. H. C. B. lumen dEampuz Malkg Page Fifty-m'ne Gags 0f Nioefeen xI mdred Nine Class Colors: Gold and Black.

In times that now seem olden, We, a band of youths and maidens, Homes and kindred left behind us, VVaked amid a maze of buildings Such as weld ne,er seen before. Structures to us labyrinthine, With their passages and stairways Leading on from floor to floor. . At ease in these surroundings, Soon a leader we had chosen Who should lead us on through combat, On through battle fought for colors, For our banner black and gold, Which throughout was kept untarnished, Spite of onsets hot and heavy, Made by rivals stout and bold. 1907eWe are Sophomores now. 3. But now those times are past and gone, And many conflicts have we known, Demanding strength that would not yield In class-room, gym, athletic field; In ball With basket, ball With bat, And football strife and all of that, But harder task none need to seek Than worsting foes like Math. and Greek. . Of Victories we would not boast, But may this ever be our toast: Long live the class of Nineteen Nine, And bound With cords unworn by time, May each to each be ever true, And each and all in all they do Their loyalty and truth proclaim T0 Miami and her honored name. .H. mammal QHZraining Shop ; .

Now in the year of our Lord Ninteen Hundred and Six; in this year entered the Freshman Class. 2. And following them will come the class of Nineteen Hundred and Eleven; and before them goeth the class of Nineteen Hundred and N ine, the class of wax figures. 3. And this Freshman Class was large and they numbered eighty-three, and 011e-third of these were women and two-thirds were men. 4. Then, on September nineteenth, this class registered in this University, and they were the largest class in the history of this historic institution. 5. And after this, Class meetings were frequent; and the whole class attended these meetings, for they were interesting. 6. Then the day came; and it was the day for the Freshmen- Sophomore pole rush. 7. And on this day the men of this wonderful class were de- feated; and on this same day the Sophomores won. 8. Then these Sephomores became suddenly very wise; and they thought they were the greatest class in this University; but they were not. 9. And in this Freshman Class are two men on the football team; and these two men are Shultz and Clustenborder. $$$$er 2K J.p 10. And in this Freshman Class are three men in the orchestra; and these three men are Gillespie, Kilgour, and Carter. 11. And then comes the Thanksgiving vacation; and all the Freshman Class have returned; and they give thanks to Doctor Benton that they were not detained at. home. 12. And now this is between Thanksgiving and Christmas, and the Freshman Class have still held more than their own; and all of the professors are proud of this large and well-trained Class. 13. And this Freshman Class is the leader in athletics; and in the social life of this University; and in the intellectual life. 14. And now the Christmas vacation is almost here; then the exams. are here; and the Freshman Class have all passed these ter- rible exams. . 15. And now this vacation is over; and this Freshman Class has returned; and they have returned in the same numbers as they were at the beginning; and the professors are still proud of them. 16. And now is the sixth week of the second term of this Uni- versity; and from now 011 this honored and esteemed class will win everything; and in the year Nineteen Hundred and Ten will be written this history of the four years of this class.

Page One Hundred and Twenty-one It was 011 the morning of October second at about hve o,eloek, that the students and inhabitants of Oxford were aroused from their slumbers by the ringing of the University bell and also inei- dentally the fire bell, but on this occasion no one stirred, for they knew that the Freshmen were out and that the time for the annual flag rush was at hand. , The flag rush is a form of contest between the Freshmen and Sophomore classes that was instituted years ago. Until recently it consisted in a tower rush, but the University authorities deemed Page One Hundred and Twenty-two 0 this very dangerous and generally undesirable, and finally sue- eeeded in displacing it by introducing the pole rush in its stead. The first trial brought out a number of weaknesses in this plan, and the following year a code of rules was drawn up by members of the faculty and representatives of the two contesting classes for the better regulation of the interelass struggle. They provided, among other things, for the Choosing of a certain number of ref- erees from among the upper Classmen, who were to be on the ground at the time, with power to decide all points in question and The Freshmen then arranged themselves in such a compact order around the pole as to most effectively resist any attempt on the part of the enemy to reach the pole. The SOphomores soon collected on the upper campus, and, after taking in the situation, immediately began a discussion of some mode of procedure. At last theydeeided on the close wedge forma- tion, with a View to pulling out one or more Freshmen at a time, until the number about the pole would permit of an onslaught. The first few attempts, which were made soon after six olclock, met with no success and the Sophomores soon withdrew for break- fast and a further discussion of their proposition. During lulls the Freshman girls did all in their power to pro- Vide some of the economic necessities of their enthusiastic heroes who were bunched arou nd the foot of the pole, cautiously guarding The Sophomores the Purple and Gold. rule out any one who happened to Violate any of the rules, the president of the University reserving at all times the supreme right to oHiCiate in any momentary matters of question that might pre- sent themselves during the contest. The time limit of the rush was to be from twelve until twelve, unless the Freshman flag should fall somewhere within this time. The contest this year was regulated by rules similar to those of last year, and was, on the whole, accompanied by the usual amount of excitement and enthusiasm manifested on such occasions. At midnight the Freshman flag was raised, and at five olclock the University bell was rung as a Challenge to the Sophomores and as an announcement of the tight. The Freshmen Page One Humlrml mu! 'Ilu-cwty-thrce At about seven otclock the Sophomores returned, seemingly deter- mined on making the wedge formation serve their purpose, and this time, after giving the man at the point of the wedge a goodly coat of lard, thus making him more undesirable in the eyes of the Freshmen, their attempts were more fruitful, and in a short time they had reduced the number of Freshmen by about twelve. Then, as if suddenly possessed of some mysterious spirit, the remaining The Tieing-up Freshmen broke ranks and flew at their torinentors like hornets attacking a bear, and in less time than would be required to tell it, one of the fiercest and, to the spectators, most interesting hand-to- hand fights known in the history of Miami flag rushes, began. Each one in his turn tried to tie his opponent, or itput him out of busi- ness? At the end of about half an hour, a Sophomore finally suc- ceeded in making his way to the pole, and before intervention could follow he was rapidly speeding toward the top. Before reaching the flag, however, he encountered a last and lonely Freshman Who had been sent up beforehand as a final precaution against the Sophomores. This last Freshie, by accident or otherwise, struck his advancing opponent on the head with his foot, and as this was against the rules, the fight was declared off with the Sophomores victors. It. was all over by nine dclook, and the Freshman flag, which had been securely spiked to the pole, was soon taken down and the Orange and Black banner of the victors unfurled to the winds. Thereupon the president declared a holiday, and a day of pleasure The Pole and rejoicing for all followed. H. B. Page One Hundred and Twenty-four HORACE BALLINGER The first name that appears on the alphabetical list of the class of 1908 is that of HORACE BALLINGER. He is one of the quietest and most studious persons in the class. He was very prompt in handing in his Recensio itcopyfi and that speaks well for him. He hails from Bradford, if any one has any idea where that is. However, Oxford seems to hold quite an attraction for him, for he is often seen here during vacation. We wish him success in this affair, as do we of everything he undertakes. As Horace is essentially a ladies7 man, probably his infrequent appearances at Hepburn Hall and the College are no doubt due to the superior Charms of a certain dark-haired maiden who calls this classic Village her home. HORACE TANGEMAN HORACE TANGEMAN is that long, rangy, white-haire-d youth from Cinoy. His sunken eyes and the prominence of his nose make him the most marvelous of all the ossilied specimens that have yet come among us. He talks all the time because he cannot help it. Since he cannot talk in church, he sings in the choir so that his vocal apparatus will not become rusty from disuse. We are satisfied his tongue is loose at both ends. His numerous duties as a political leader prevented his accepting the position of Assistant Manager of this book. There is a difference between being iisupei, and the whole show. His chief hangout is the. bacteriology lab, where he is rearing a pet microbe. CHARLES BORN Come here! What is the matter with you, Chick? We want to introduce you to the people. Ladies and gentlemen, this is CHARLES BORN. The reason he is so nervous in the presence of ladies is be- cause he once received a terrible scare from a bunch of summer Normals who were out on a man hunt. No, we will have to take that back, for he is a society man, through and through, having had more girls than any man in the class. He is the young man who got nine hoursi credit in summer school for instructing a class of young ladies in campastry. EDNA ESTELLE UNZICKER MIss EDNA ESTELLE UNZICKER claims this classic Village and its Vicinity as her paternal home. She studied for two years at the Miami Academy and so knows well this ttold historic institutionii and its traditions. 1908 is proud of Miss Unzickeris ability as a student and is glad to have for its secretary and treasurer one so faithful to every duty. We have heard that she is prejudiced in favor of Delta Rho, but as to thateask her. She is a young lady who would like to have her name changed. Page One Hundred and Twe'nty-five TAYLOR BORRADAILE TAYLOR BORRADAILE has proved himself to be a man of unusual powers of organization and leadership. The class, recognizing this, elected him manager of the Recensio, and later on president of the class. Owing to a concatination of circumstances, Taylor resigned the business managership; but the good start the Re-oensio received is to his credit. As Eaton has produced Several well-know men, we expect to hear more of Taylor in the future. MARY ARMINTA BAUGHMAN MARY ARMINTA BAUGHMAN, the subject of this sketch, is one of the all-round, wholesome girls it does you good to meet. She spent two years at Oxford College, but the good times of the Co-Eds and the deference and respect shown them by Miami men induced her to enter Miami for her Sophomore year. Miss Baughman is marked by a sweet disposition, a sweet, childish smile, and an interest in Smiths. HUGH GORDON HUGH GORDON can hardly be placed with the common herd. He belongs to the immortal few who have taken straight As. He is one of the stay-up-all-night-and-study young men, as his grades prove. Hugh claims Georgetown as his home; that may account for some of his ways. However, the class is proud of him for his intellectual accomplishments, and we predict the world will hear more of him. The records of the North Dorm. Senate show that he was once found guilty of owning a moustache. In chapel he prac- tices closing his eyes and folding his hands in anticipation of the day when he shall appear as leading tenor in the comic opera, iiVVhy is Every One Queer but Me ?,i JOE STANLEY EMERSON Bellefontaine, as the name might imply, must have a sparkling fountain of beauty and youth, for when JOE STANLEY EMERSON came to us he was the most youthful and vivacious individual we had seen for some time. At times he would become unable to con- tain himself and would disturb all out doors with his wild yells. But after a couple or three years the quiet and simple life of Ox- ford has tamed him down, and he has finally become civilized and quite respectable. He has the finest build of any man in school. Page One Hundred and Tu-enrty-siay All the girls admire his broad shoulders and general athletic appearance. He is our star basket-ball man, and is generally well liked. A girl was once heard to say she thought Red handsome, but it was afterward learned that she had only seen him from a dis- tance. ARTHUR C. OLSON There is no other man in the class of 1908 with such business ability, no other man of such personal attractions as ARTHUR iiOHAUNCEY DEPEVV,, OLSON. This is, to be sure, rather a bold state- ment to make, but it is done on the authority of iiOlieii himself, so we do not consider it too great temerity. He is one of the biggest fussers in the class; in fact, we are not in the same class at all when it comes to fussing. If you do not believe it, ask the cb Tls. As manager of the Miami Co-op store he has made a world-wide repu- tation for himself. On the whole, his career here has been a marked success, and the wedding will take place in June, 1908. HELEN LAVERNE DANIELS MISS HELEN LAVERNE DANIELS comes to us from Western Reserve. She may be recognized by her bright smile, her engaging manner, and her short sleeves. She devotes herself especially to German and Latin and is a faithful member of iiDer Deutsche Vereinf, Socially, she is a general favorite, and though she claims to be heart whole and fancy free, we have our suspicions. She says she has a sweet disposition if you know how to take her. Who wants to take her? iiOh, you ,re too young to know? 1 CHARLES GARROD There isn,t very much of anything disgraceful that we can say about CHARLES GARROD because he is so quiet that no one has ever been able to find out very much about him. He made his debut in athletics this year when he came out for football, but unfortunately his promising career ended after the Cincinnati game. iHe once spoke to a girl, but the shock was too great and he never tried it again. He works at his own business almost exclusively. CLARA MAY FEENEY MISS CLARA MAY FEENEY is renowned for her knowledge of bugs, and though she declares she intends to study Osteopathy, there are those who think she will probably turn her talents in the direction of domestic science. Proof-the Senior and the pin. Miss Feeney is interested in athletics, has lots of class spirit and good sound sense, and is a severe critic. She may be characterized as the girl who has the spunk to think and act for herself. WALTER HOFFMAN It is with painful feeling that we turn upon our next Victim, WALTER HOFFMAN. He is a very quiet and unassuming fellow who never did any one any harm. He has never been known to crack a joke and very seldom smiles. Do not think hard of him because he comes from Hamilton, because no doubt he feels the disgrace. He has a deadly fear of girls, and has been known to go a block out of his way to avoid speaking to one. He spends much of his time about the lab., and we hope to hear of him as a great Chemist some day. MURRAY SHEEHAN When you see iiDR. SANIiY,, SHEEHAN strutting across the cam- pus it is diHicult to tell whether he is the faculty or the board of trustees. ttSmall in stature but great in mindii is the doctors motto. He is an intellectual wonder. As a musician, artist, writer, an actor, and other things too numerous to mention, he is far above the average. His soft and gentle touch adds much to the general uproar of the University band, for he is hard to beat on the bass drum. He teases the piano while the orchestra performs, but that does not seem to make any difference to the orchestra except when he gets the wrong number. His interest Hi in athletics is only surpassed by his interest in the German Department. He is said to hail from Hamilton, but that is pretty hard to believe of him, for he is really a pretty good sort of a fellow. He expects to be a big man when he grows up. EDNA LOUISE CJOOKE MISS EDNA LOUISE COOKE joined us at the beginning of the Junior year, having previously obtained a diploma from the Nor- mal College. She is best known for her musical ability, and at present is instructing the youth of Liberty, Indiana, to warble sweetly in her wake. Miss Cooke is prominent in Y. W. C. A. work and in literary society, is small of stature, keen of intellect, and sharp of tongueeone whom 1908 is proud to claim. A remarkable characteristic of one so young is her deep affection for tabby oats. HARVEY BRILL HARVEY BRILL appears to be a very unassuming youth, and no one would take him for the great man he really is. Harvey is a very steady and conscientious worker and does his work thoroughly. He has not found his calling yet, but we are sure it will be some- thing worth while. Harvey may not be well known to you, but cheer up, girls, you will have a Chance to make his acquaintance next year when he appears in the role of business manager of The Student. He has shown the ability of tending to one manis affairs, and as a result can count many friends. i PEARL MAHAFFEY MISS PEARL MAHAFFEY formerly ruled in a sehoolroom with a rod of iron; now she devotes her energy to Y. W. C. A. work, Classes, and athletics. She is another one of the business-like, clear-headed girls, so many of whom honor i08 with their presence. Miss Ma- haffey is very reticent about her affairs, but we doubt not that, like every lassie, she has tther laddie comini throi the rye? She is a general favorite at the Minnich household, and is quite frequently entrusted with the care of ttlittle Dwighti, at matinees and things. STANLEY MOORE STANLEY MOORE made the mistake of trying to graduate with the Class of ,07, but fortunately discovered his error in time and has now joined the ranks of 708. He has quite a reputation in school as an artist, and is responsible for many of the drawings in this book. He wears an everlasting lack of brightness on his face, and naturally is a continual kicker. He is a social star and has class honors in public speaking cinched t D. ETHEL HOUSER Mlss ETHEL HOUSER deserves to be called the intellectual genius of the Class. Her capacity for mathematics and physics is unlim- ited, and her ability as an instructor in these subjects is worthy of mention. Miss Houser has on most subjects a mind of her own, and we predict for her a brilliant future. She is a proprietor of the upper mill-room of Hepburn Hall, which continually grinds out a superior grade of gray matter. She is always seen in her seat at chapel, working math. or Dutch. Page One Hundred and Twenty-se'ven OMAR SMITH OMAR SMITH can be passed over without much comment, for the simple reason that we cannot find out anything about him. His chief aim in life seems to be to avoid all evil, that is, work, and he is successful to a remarkable degree. We predict a bright future for him should he ever wake up. He smokes quarter cigars mostly, but would rather have whole ones. JOHN G. SNYDER J OHN GROVE SNYDER, the genial manager of the basket-ball team, comes from Liberty, Indiana. Report has it that he is one of the few of our number who has taken the obligation of future matri- mony. Congratulations! This explains why it took J ohn two days longer to get home from an up-State basket-ball trip, than the rest of the team. He had never told us that he was interested in Akron. It was not his fault that he is not an athlete, because he has been very faithful in his attempts. John is a good-natured fellow, a little too eifervescent, but perfectly harmless, in spite of his self- importance, swagger, and kind condescension. EDNA PITTS MISS EDNA PITTs has been so worried about her Recensio ttwrite up,, that we have decided to cut out all the horrid things we might say and stick to facts. ttBillyi, has become famous for her football ability and for her addition to the science of Psychology by her research work on the subject of iilip pressure? tSee GrindsJ She is a regular attendant at sorority meetings, missing neither the one before or after chapel. She is the Junior member of the firm of Pitts and Coulter, which has been recently enlarged and is now operating under the iirm name of Kappa Theta Sigma. J OHN F. HILL iiGol darn? here is J ACK HILL, the Big Chief Editor. He is noted especially for his many clever puns. The Elizabethians wouldn,t be in it with him. He is also very strong with the ladies, having them in Lima, Toledo, Oxford and the Western College, and Co-eds. Oh, my! Just think of the hit made in the iiQuest of the Quezarrel, and with Boola. We don,t see how he ever found time to get out such a splendid Recensio as this. In fact, he never Page One Hundred and Twenty-eight could have done so much had it. not been for his exceptional abil- ity of concentration on short acquaintance. He has not decided yet just what he will do for a living, but report has it that he is going to take up medicine. Then, again, he may take a notion to marry that $100,000 girl of his and let the servants do the work. But that would be rather selfish, and at heart we really think that- he wishes to do the thing that will help others most, so we feel quite sure that he will devote his life to medicine and public serv- ice. After all, Dr. John Frederick Hill looks pretty good. LEWIS RUPERT LEWIS RUPERT is that quiet, good-natured youth from Spencer- ville, Ohio. He has gained particular distinction as football cap- tain and for having the worst ticaseil in school. Hepburn Hall becoming the home of the young lady this year, caused him to dis- pense with his usual before-breakfast calls. He was honored with the presidency of the Republican Club, and the Victory of that party at the polls no doubt is due to this fact. tiLouieil is advertising man- ager of this Recensio, and the great success of that department is entirely to his credit. The florists of Oxford might as well quit business when he leaves school. DWIGHT BRITTON DWIGHT BRITTON, the second of his line to do honor to Miami, is a very versatile young man, being captain of this Springs Track Team, pitcher of the Champion J unior Indoor Baseball Team, a leader in society, and a prominent member of the basket-ball team. His wonderful ability to absorb all rumors and gossip assures him success if he should ever enter anything in the reportorial line. He is marked by his devotion to his iitinyli little sister Boyd. WILLIAM A. TRIMPE We are glad to introduce WILLIAM A. TRIMPE, MiamYs yell leader, and the man who has more of that. college spirit we hear so much about than any man in school. Though not a star athlete, Bill has made a creditable showing and has done much toward bringing honor to both the Class and college. His enthusiasm is not confined to athletics, but. is prominent in the Erodelphian and the Debating Association. He is always ready for an argument, and when no one Will ttargufyii with him he talks to himself. We understand there is quite an attraction in Dayton for him. This explains why he often misses the train there when on his way to Oxford. ALICE LEAH MILLER MISS ALICE LEAH MILLER claims Gibsonburg, Ohio, as her home. After completing the High-Sehool course there she spent two years at Heidelberg University. Desiring a change, Miss Miller cast in her lot with us at the beginning of the Junior year. Though she has been with us but a short time, we are glad to give Miss Miller welcome, because of her sterling worth. FRANCES RAGLAND MISS RAGLANWS first two years experience of Miami life were obtained in the Normal College, from which she received her diploma in 1906, and not deeming herself yet sufficiently wise to instruct the youth of the land, she decided to join this class and absorb for two years more the culture of Miamiis classic atmos- phere. She is renowned for her musical ability t ?l, her scholar- ship, and independent business-like manner. She is an honored member of Phi Tan and bids fair to become an honorary member of - - e. A well-known Senior and an equally prominent Junior hold frequent discussions as to her father7s name. Wonder why? iiBut, my dear Iii BARNEY RADCTLIFFE When BARNEY RADCLIFFE came to Miami, it. was Without any promises for the future. But he has made good in many ways, and the class is proud of him. In athletics, classroom, and as a good fellow Barney is right there with both feet. He is an excel- lent hypnotic subject, although iUiekii claims he was only fooling. He used to have a deadly fear of girls, but has gotten over that, as he even dares to brave the tido-you-love-me, W spirit of Oxford College. G. W. BARNES G. W. BARNES came to us as a graduate of New Lafayette Col- lege, expecting to begin work upon his M. A., but after a consulta- tion with the faculty he decided to enter the Senior Class. Owing to his brilliant intellect, he was early promoted to the Junior Class. WTe hope by the time the Reeensio is in your hands he will have been again promoted to the Sophomore Class. He is an advocate of reformed football, and owes his promotions to his wonderful feats in that sport. He honors the first day of the week with a clean collar. ALPHEUS K. M ORRIS ALPIIEUS MORRIS is a typical model for the Freshies to follow, and all others who would avoid the broad and well-paved road. He is business through and through, and as a result is one of the busiest men in the school. The presidency of the Y. M. C. A., Head Marshall of the University, the Student and Reeensio Boards, and many other responsibilities keep iiBeckyl, jumping. When he gets angry he says, ttOh, fudge P and, ttVVell, what do you think of that ?ii and other awful oaths. His college education is sorely lacking in that he neither smokes, Chews, drinks, dances, nor plays cards or billiards, etc. This year has disclosed the fact that he is very susceptible to the Charms of the fair sex. We hereby confer upon him the degree of High Chief Fusser. He has not taken all As yet, but is going to next term. He once sold Success. MARY BELLE MARTIN MARY BELLE MARTIN such a beautiful name, and how appro- priate! And she came from a beautiful town, Versailles, near Greenville, Ohio. Miami has had many from the same city, but Mary Belle,s queenly bearing and dignity, together with an inde- pendent spirit, make her by far the most popular of them all. Dev spite her independence, Miss Martin showers her favors equally between Sigs, Phi Belts, and Dekes, but the earnest pleadings of barb Stover came near winning the heart of this matchless German heroine. We are sure he would have been successful had it not been that Miss Martin tthates the boys who specialize? This being true, where do the candy and flowers come from? She is inter; ested in all activities of college life, Y. W. C. A., Liberal Arts Club, Kappa Alpha Theta, and still finds some time to devote to Law. Page One Hundred and Twenty-m-ne BRUCE LLOYD. BRUCE LLOYD calls Oxford his home, and in summer his interests are here. During the school year he has devoted his time to cap- taining the Champion J unior Indoor Baseball Team and in giving employment to the postal clerks at Greenville. CLINTON BOYD CLINTON BOYD is honored in the fact that she comes from Brown County. You can recognize Teny by her wiggling walk and her Winsome, girlish smile. She is the popular heroine of many ath- letic meets. She holds the unique distinction of being the only one in the class who has won-a gold medal. Teny is now collecting material for a valuable treatise entitled itA Woman in the Ring of College Politics, or How We Beat the Combination? We know of no one more capable to edit such a work. ROI RISINGER Roi RISINGER is the eliieient Business Manager of this book, so we must be careful what we say lest he refuse to pay our bills. When he first arrived in Oxford the military bearing and athletic build of the Captain attracted the attention of Phi Delta Theta. N othing short of a pole rush has been known to disturb the equilib- rium of his self-poised and dignified manner. He has demonstrated his business ability by taking the management of this annual at a very late date and making of it a financial success. Aside from his numerous duties, the foresaid Captain is able to find time to devote himself to the Phi Taus. He is fond of all flowers, but Daisy is the favorite. CLARENCE MARTIN CLARENCE MARTIN is a man we cannot help but regard With sus- picion, although we know nothing particularly to his discredit. Prexy thought seriously of tying a can to Red once, but decided that the salvation of his soul might be accomplished if he be allowed to remain, and, anyhow, he was needed in the orchestra. His social activities of last summer were carried on to such an excess that it was necessary to go into a state of hibernation from which he has not yet returned. He will probably get busy next summer if she is in summer school. GRA CE GLASGOW G-G-G-Geel How does that sound? It doesnt sound like GRACE GRAND GERARD GLASGOW, for she never talks like that. He-he he-he e110, he never bothers her much. Miss Glasgow always says she would much rather be independent than a ttelinging vine? She is such an industrious individual, being always engrossed in instill- ing knowledge, in some form or other, into the mind of some be- nighted youth who lacks her capacity for study, that one knows scarcely more than this about her, except that Doctor Brandon tells her pwhaps some day she ,ll be as smart as he is.

Cameron Clifford Riner THC: Wham Oratorical ksociafiop Feeling the need of some organization at this institution Which should have full Charge of inter-soeiety and intercollegiate 0011- tests in oratory and debate, in October, 1906, committees were appointed by the two meifs literary societies, the Miami Union and the Erodelphian, Who, With the help of the Director Of Public Speaking, Prof. A. L. Gates, drew up a constitution for an organ- ization to be known as the iiMiami Oratorieal Association? This constitution was adopted by the two societies and an organization was perfected as provided for in that instrument. By this constitution, the membership of the Association is to consist of the membership of the two constituent societies. Its officers are a President and Secretary, these not to be members of the same society. At present Mr. A. R. Mead, 0f the Miami Union, is President, and Mr. E. F. Colborn, 0f the Erodelphiau, is Secre- tary. The governing body of the Association is an Executive Com- mittee, consisting of two members from each society, with the President, Secretary, and Director of Public Speaking as eX-Ofiicio members. At present Mr. Morris and Mr. Trimpe represent the Erodelphian, and Mr. Frank Dilley and Mr. H. R. Brill the Miami Union. This committee has arranged for the intercollegiate debate With DePauW, that is to occur some time in the spring term, as per agreement of last year. The question is, TiResolved, That the power of the individual State's constitutes a better means of reform than does the power of the Federal Government? The preliminary intersociety contest, on the same question, occurs on Saturday evening, March 9. The Miami team Will defend the aHirmative 0f the above ques- tion. E. F. 0., ,07.

Now we are terminating a very successful year, showing that this society or any other society so organized and so constituted will forever endure. To-day we have met in a worthy cause. We have met to give due honor and glory to the girls who- here gave their debates and orations that others might hear and be uplifted. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this, but in a larger sense we cannot honor, we cannot venerate, we cannot exalt their names. The learned girls of past and present who struggled here have done honor to themselves far above our power to add 01' detract. The world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us in our meeting rather to show them what we can do in the way of quotations, current events, and. impromptus. That we here highly resolve these girls have not striven in vain; that the society of the Normal College has stood for the best in literature and presentation, and that the Pierian by the girls and for the girls shall not perish from Miami University.

Weatqjm KWUWQW The Young Menis Christian Association feels very grateful to the men of the student body and 0f the faculty Who have so loyally .0. stood back of all our work With their moral, financial, and other $0; support. We cannot help but feel that this organization is coming W to have a larger and more influential place in the life of the Univer- m0? sity each year. We believe that the moral tone of the student body is much higher than it has been for several years, and that there is a more Wholesome and genuine attitude toward the things that are highest and best in life. A more representative bunch of fellows is allying itself With the Association as time goes on, and we hope that Christian principles Will come to have the place they should have in the student life at Miami. During the year 1906-1907 the Young Men7s Christian Associae tion has been very fortunate in having very strong speakers for its Sunday meetings, and a much larger attendance than usual has been the result. Such men as J. B. Tarney, of Chicago, Doctor Hayes, Professor Upham, Professor Feeney, Doctor Hall, Rev. Harry Vail, 0f Fern- bank, Ohio, C. C. Hatfield, of Columbus, Frank V. Slack, 0f the International Committee, and Rev. Mr. La Flammer, 0f the Stu- dent Volunteer Movement, in the fall term, and Hon. R. W. Burns, Wk 01 West Carrollton, Ohio, Doctor Melendy, of Cincinnati, and y$ Doctor Vance, of Lane Theological Seminary, thus far this term, aw the men of Miami have been able to hear, and their messages have ?O? been most inspirinoa We are planning to have a series of life talks ARTHUR H. PARMELEE, General Secretary Page One Hundred and Fifty-siac $4 N V 40$ n it many; 911321115 mlbtigtian aggntiatinn toontinuedi the rest of the year by men who are actively engaged in the work of the world and competent to talk on such subjects. While the meetings this year have been better attended than last year, still there are many men who are failing to take advantage of the oppor- tunities they have here of coming in contact with strong men and thus getting new and valuable ideas for their lives. The Bible study work of the Association has suffered somewhat this year through inability to lind enough competent leaders for the classes, but although the number of men enrolled in Bible study has not been so large this year as it was last, still we feel that more men have actually been doing the work than did last year. The following classes have been and are now being conducted: tiStudies in Life of J esus Christi, leader, A. R. Mead; itStudies in Acts and Epistles of Paul? leader, Doctor Eckels ; iiStudies in Life of Christ According to Mark? leader, A. H. Parmelee; iiStudies in Teach- ings of Jesus? leader, A. H. Parmelee. The total enrollment of these classes is about fifty at the present time. We feel that the Bible Study Department of the Association is gradually laying a foundation for a strong and comprehensive work. The growth in the number of men studying the Bible in the colleges of our coun- try has been remarkable in the past five years. Men are coming to realize the importance of an intelligent knowledge of the Bible, as never before. . Some work has also been done this year toward interesting men in what is being done for the cause of Christianity in foreign lands. Mr. C. C. Hatfield, of Columbus, Ohio, spoke at a Sunday meeting last fall on the importance of mission work. Two groups of fellows have been studying different mission fields; one Class, under the direction of Alpheus Morris, has been studying a book of biographical sketches of missionaries, and another group has been studying J apan. A group will soon be organized to study the ques- tion of immigration by use of Groseis book, iiAliens or Americans W The reading-room of the Association has been very largely used this year, and we are very much in need of better accommodations. We hope that when some of these new buildings are completed there will be more oommodious quarters for this feature of the Association. A. H. P. V m0? 40$ .

It is altogether fitting that Old Miami, the ttmother of states- men? should bring forth, as its child, that organization known as the Civic League. There exists an Intercollegiate Civic League composed of such institutions as Chicago, Harvard, Columbia, Brown, Dartmouth, etc., which is a federation of local clubs and leagues of the various institutions. The organization of the Miami Civic League came about as a result of an invitation to join the Intercollegiate Civic League. On the evening of February 14, 1907, Dr. E. C. Hayes appeared before the two menis literary societies and explained the aim of the Intercollegiate League and presented the invitation to join it. At the same time a joint committee, consisting of Messrs. A. K. Morris, H. D. Fitzgerald, and W. Welliver, of the Erodel- phian, and Messrs. A. R. Mead, C. G. Mohler, and Wm. Markey, of the Miami Union, were appointed to effect an organization of a local league. This committee met Tuesday, February 18, and Fri- day, February 22, during which time it drafted a model constitu- tion, and selected Dr. E. C. Hayes to preside at a mass meeting for organization. This meeting was held in the chapel Wednesday, February 26. At this meeting Messrs. Risinger, Pattison, and Ralston were added to the old committee, and it was directed to prepare a final draft of the constitution. This committee met the following evening and prepared the new draft of the constitution. At a later meeting of the interested students this was adopted. $$- Page One Hundred and Eighty tr 0Q: .. .. .. .. .Lewis Rupert . . . . . . . .Harvey Brill . .Leonard Fels ... .. .. .Chas. Mohler The objects of the League are best set forth in the constitution itself in the following words: ttTo serve as a bond of union to those members of Miami University, and others, who believe in the intelligent study of public affairs as a means of increasing the interest of students in the duties of citizenship and of raising the standard of public life in the United States. Non-partisan in membership and aims, it stands for honest and efficient public service? It will be seen from the foregoing that its scope of work is broad and comprehensive. The membership consists of students and faculty members of the University and such eminent men as may, because of their interest in the work, be elected to honorary membership from time to time. It will receive from time to time letters written by such men as President Roosevelt, J acob A. Riis, etc., on important topics of the day, and will also have addresses from time to time by eminent men. But with the brilliant achievements of the past in this institution ever The future of the League is what the members make it. before the minds of the members, it seems impossible that it should have other than a successful and brilliant career. It begins its career with a membership of over eighty. A. R.

Oxford, Ohio. BIRDSEYE VIEW OF THE CAMPUS THe Eomlard WVement at HOld Miami University is distinctly a small college. This word ttsmallii is here used in no sense as a term of disparagement. Our institu- tion has always been great in its smallness. To be small in numbers and great in the quality of achievement is the highest ambition any college can cherish. It is this ambition realized that has made Dartmouth and Amherst and Williams great, and it is in such company that Miami University marches. Our classical tra- ditions are strong and our institution has always stood for the highest type of culture. Culture in its broadest and best sense stands, not for preparation for a particular vocation; it is for that culture which means the development of the whole man, physical, intellectual, and spiritual, and which furnishes a foundation broad enough, deep enough, and strong enough for the best possible superstructure of specialization that iiOtld Miamiti has always stood. Page One Hundred and Eighty-two iamij, Daring the erept Year Miami University Claims the right to grow. It has, in recent years, added as a feature of its work the Ohio State Normal Col- lege, from which have already gone into the public schools of our State better-equipped teachers than the former years have known. The Normal College, to perform its mission, should have an enrollment of at least twenty-five hundred students, and the State is pledged to its liberal support. If, in the near future, there can be the segregation of departments that is de- sirable and the Normal College can be given a larger measure of independence by placing it in its own buildings, on its own sepa- rate grounds, it will have the distinct individuality that will allow it to grow without limit. While, under existing laws, we can- not seek State support for any other lines of educational work than those now maintained, there is nothing to prevent us from enlarging our educational borders by the addition of self-support- 1113b: formatn glaohzmznt at QDIn 919mm ing medical, law, dental, and other professional colleges; and this we hope to do in the very near future. The College of Liberal Arts, the historic department of our insti- tution, must forever be regarded as the nucleus around which all things else gather at Miami University. The College of Liberal Arts must be kept small and exclusive; small in order to secure the personal contact of teachers with students, which is the most val- uable asset of real college life; exclusive only to insure those stu- dents who give promise of large usefulness. There is no real college life where the teacher is not a personal factor in the lives of his students, where every student does not know by name every other student, and where all are not aspirants to the best that life has to offer. The great university cannot, with its ponderous under- graduate body, meet these conditions, and the student that does his college work in such an institution never knows in the fullness of its sweetness the meaning of iicollege life? We are quite willing that the other departments of our univer- sity work should grow without hindrance, but it will be a fatal day to the ideals of tiOld MiamYl when the College of Liberal Arts, which is its life center, numbers in excess of six hundred students. We have made our small college the greatest of the Middle West by employing in our faculty as teachers the greatest scholars the universities of the world can provide. These teachers, by the in- spiration of their personal interest in their students, have sent the graduates of Miami University out into life to make their Alma Mater known as an honored name throughout the circle of the globe. What has been done in other days is being done to-day, and the current year 1906,and 1907 is the best itOld Miami,, has known in tContinuch W 40$ 39$ all its glorious history. There is no doubt that the splendid galaxy of ripe scholars making up our educational staff is the greatest col- lege faculty in the State of Ohio. These teachers, with their lives consecrated to the service of youth, have found a ready response to their appeals for higher living from our magnificent student body. 011 every hand are to be found evidences of the material pros- perity of Miami University. The State has provided us by legis- lative enactment with the largest income for support that the insti- tution has ever enjoyed. A new central heating and lighting plant, costing over thirty thousand dollars, is nearing completion. A new auditorium, with a splendid pipe-organ and an entire modern equip- ment, will be erected during the summer at a cost of sixty-tive thousand dollars. The grounds are being improved and the line old college campus will be more beautiful than ever. It is in the progressive march of the true college spirit, though, that the present year is most distinguished. Miami University has always been an aristocratic college. It is more aristocratic to- day than ever before. It is the aristocracy of democracy that makes tithe Miami man? He is aristocratic in his ideals of high attain- ment and democratic in the interest he feels in his fellows. Our college life would be a failure if it should produce a coterie of top- lofty snobs. It would be equally a failure if it should develop the brutal spirit which fails to recognize the obligations of due respect from man to man. It must needs be that in college the student, as the man or the woman in the outside world, shall find somewhere the small group of congenial spirits towards which he gravitates. The college frae ternity of some name is the group toward which certain students move. The literary society attracts others. The non-fraternity Page One Hundred and Eighty-three 'thhz jfntlnaw giaommmt at QDIn 99mm group draws yet others in its direction. All these groupings are natural. All are honorable so long as they are each generous in spirit and tolerant of the other. There may have been times in the past when one fraternity was meanly elannish and arrogant in its attitude toward another organization of like nature. That day is in the past. This year has witnessed the organization of the Pan- Hellenic Council, which binds the four national fraternities of Miami University together, not for political purposes, but in the spirit of generous toleration and good will for the highest interests of college life. The humblest non-fraternity student of Miami University is worthy of as great consideration as is accorded the member of the Oldest fraternity in the institution. The non-fraternity groups of the institution, knowing this to be our spirit, have shown them- selves willing to clasp hands in friendship with the Greek-letter societies, and henceforth, as the result of this return to the concep- tion of old-fashioned college democracy, we fully expect that stu- dents will be elected to college ofiice, not because of itpullfl but rather because of recognized merit. tOOntinuedl The revival of class spirit Which has been a distinct movement of the present year is contributing in no small measure toward the larger democracy which does not diminish the affections of the smaller group, but which does accentuate the interest in the larger group, thereby developing the breadth of View essential to the largest success in life. Miami University has always been marked as an institution where a iine religious atmosphere has prevailed. The prosperous work of the. Young Men,s and Young VVomen,s Christian Associa- tions and the special religious meetings of this year evidence the fact of growth here. It is in the response to the appeal for truth and sincerity that our progress has been most pronounced, and the friends of iiOld Miamiii may look toward the institution, strong in the confidence that the future will show, as the product of the institution, a race of men worthy to tread in the footsteps of those who have gone before. GUY POTTER BENTON. Page One Hundred and Eighty-four 192mm ngmnatsium Page One Hundred and Eighty-sia: GED: dEpmnagium Page One Hundred and Evighty-seren Page One Hundred and Eighty-eight It can hardly be said that Miami University occupies, at the present time, a very prominent place in the athletics 0f the State. if turning out Winning teams in the various lines of sport consti- tutes the claim upon which athletic prominence is based; but it cannot be maintained that turning out winning teams is the sole and only legitimate basis for a claim to success in athletics. Athletics exist primarily for the physical education and recreae tion of the student, and not as a means of intercollegiate compe- tition. If, however, in the development of the physical side of the student body, men or teams are evolved Which typify the athletic prowess and skill of the institution and can compete With teams of other colleges also representative in the same respect, we have intercollegiate athletics 0n the proper basis. Unfortunately it is not true that the athletics of many institutions are upon this basis, and in many cases those colleges most successful in Winning games are the most fiagrant offenders against honorable sport and 919mm in athleticz tOOntinuedl legitimate athletic effort. Teams are composed of men secured for their skill and ability, and are not in any sense representative of the student bodies under whose colors they compete. It is true, perhaps, that the fact that of late years the teams representing Miami have not been of the latter sort accounts for our not being higher up among the institutions of the State prominent in ath- letics. As it is, we are proud of the fact. When the demand for athletic reform swept over the country last year, especially for football, it was not necessary for Miami to change her tactics or alter her policy. She had already done so. Athletics at Miami are on the square, and we trust always will be. Geographically, Miami is isolated from the more prominent col- leges of the State, and this renders it somewhat diHieult to main- tain athletic relations with them. This fact, together with lim- ited financial resources and a small student body, constitute three obstacles to Miami becoming as prominent in athletics as she ought to be. But it is encouraging to know that these obstacles are not insur- mountable or even so serious as to compromise to any great extent our chance of becoming one of the strongest schools in the State, from an athletic standpoint. Determination and spirit will over- come them, and make of them simply incentives to suit the effort necessary to success. And this spirit and interest in athletics is growing, growing pereeptibly and decidedly, and is the most hope- ful sign of the glorious athletic future that lies before Miami, if the student body but desires such a future and sets itself about securing it. Page One Hundred and Eighty-nine as Page One Hundred and Ninety IVEami thletic PLSsociatiOD It is the unfortunate predicament of many colleges to have the control of their athletics either Wholly in the hands of student associations 0r of faculty boards-unfortunate because When con- trol is thus 011e-sided it is very apt to be exercised, as is quite natu- ral, from entirely one point of View, and the result is lack of har- mony and sympathy between faculty and students on a matter of very Vital concern to both. The Athletic Association of Miami University is composed of all men in this University of college rank. This membership elects annually three student members to the board of control, Who, With three members of the faculty and the President of the University, constitute that body and is the governing committee of the Asso- ciation. The officers of the board are the oflicers 0f the Association. By this arrangement both faculty and students are united in control of the athletics 0f the University and eoiiperate for the success of the institution in this regard. The arrangement is a most happy one, and is very successful. N0 membership fee is charged, but it is beginning to be felt that it might, perhaps, be a Wiser thing to have such a fee for the pur- pose of raising much-needed funds, and as a means of insuring a more active interest in the support of athletics. We believe the charging of a reasonable membership fee would be conducive to the best interests of the Association and the furthering of its object. Board of QnTmI Qthitew ' XVm. Shideler F. B.

This demand last year grew so overwhelmingly that in order to save the game, in the estimation of the public, and prevent its being discontinued by the faculties of a great many institu- tions, it became absolutely necessary that the game be changed to comply with the vehement and persistent demands of the friends of the game as well as of its enemies. To so change the game as to eliminate the objectionable features and yet not mutilate it, was the difiieult task of the rules committee which took the matter up for consideration. The principal objections to the game were the frequency of mass plays, made necessary by the preeariousness of end runs and the comparatively easy possibility of making the necessary iive yards by straight attacks on the line for two or three yards a down. There was science and generalship in these plays, but the premium lay on the side of weight and brute strength, and the heaviest team had, other things being equal, the best chance to win. It is needless to say that spectators got little out of the game played with such tactics on a series of eoming-togethers and pile-ups repeated again and again. These mass plays were also needless and dangerous, and a majority of the serious injuries were received in their execu- tion; but, worst of all, the number of men employed in each play, $?cE '0? 40b it $$$e the violent physical contact, tended to rouse personal animosity in the players which the close formations, the crowding quickness of mass attacks gave exceptional opportunity for foul tactics. The committee, realizing that a game demanding high degree of skill, strength, daring, quickness of perception, loyalty, obedience, and self-eontrol was too good a game to sacrifice to a few bad, though not necessary desirable features, set about its work with intelligence and sympathy, and, by changing the rules under which the game is played, we believe, have accomplished their object in an altogether remarkable manner. The logic of the mass play lay in the principle of about iive feet to a down, or an aggregate five yards in three downs; destroy the logic of the play and you destroy the play. This was done in in- creasing the distance to be gained in three downs from five yards to ten. To establish the effectiveness of this rule, a rule was made- whereby the side in possession of the' ball must have at least six men on the scrimmage line when the ball is put in play, and iive of these must be center men, this to present the bringing back of heavy guards of tackles and using their added momentum in iismashingii the opposing line. To render it possible for this weak- ened offense to make in three downs not iive yards but ten, new priviliges calculated to give distance by means of open formation Page One Hundred and Ninety-fi've QED: 312m jfnotslBall gag? g; Were provided for. For instance, in regard to kicking, now any one may take possession of the ball as soon as it touches the ground. It accordingly behooves the defense to post enough men in the re- mote rear of their line to be certain of getting an unexpected punt. This rule works doubly; it tends simultaneously to weaken the de- fense by reducing the number of men in the line and by increasing the likelihood of a long gain to oppose open formation on the part of the offense. Another privilege is that Of the forward pass once in each scrim- mage; a player back of the line may pass a ball toward the oppo- nents, goal. This is a splendid play, but extremely difficult, requiring great accuracy on the part of the passer and him to whom the ball is passed. This play was, on the whole, more success- ful in actual play than we would think possible, and constituted one of the most spectacular features of the revised game to further encourage open play. Tackling below the knee is forbidden, to give the runner a better chance tc dodge his opponents. These are the principal changes in the rules, which have varied the technique of football, and they are along the lines of science and strategy, the points where improvement was wanted. To secure fair and gentlemanly conduct and to protect the players against assault and unnecessary injury, penalties were made more severe and the number of oflicials increased. A con- Page One Hundred and Ninety-sia: t00ntinuedl 0Q Oily $ZW testant guilty of foul play is at once removed from the game and his side obliged to lose heavily in distance. To prevent the shoving, pushing throughout the game for advantageous position, and in- dulgence in innumerable annoyances calculated to arouse ill feel- ing, which nearly always took place before the ball was put in play when the teams lined up shoulder to shoulder and eye to eye, the committee made a provision that the two lines be separated by the full length of the ball. This makes things more Visible to the officials and prevents most of the old-time petty warfare and wrangling, and with them much of the bad blood and ill temper which was formerly all too characteristic. These changes in the rules of the game have, without doubt, resulted in a great improvement in the game from every point of View. Mass plays have not been completely abolished, but their terrible force has been destroyed, and between equally-matched teams skill, quickness, and resourcefulness are of greater avail than mere beef and brawn. Strict enforcement of the rules by officials and the support of college men and the public in such enforcement, will result in a clean and more honorable game. When this result is obtained, football-the new footballewill truly be the sport which of all others will tend to develop manhood, courage, self- reliance, and self-control. a w THE GEORGE'MHVN GAME The season 0f ,06 opened with the team lined up against George- town. The beginning was certainly auspicious, for the game resulted in a Victory, the score being 16 t0 0. Miami had little difiiculty in piercing the opposing line, seldom failii'ig to make the necessary gains. MiamYs line was invincible, however, and George- town found it impossible to score. CINCINNATI GAME The next game was played at Cincinnati at Burnett XVOOds field. The team was accompanied by a hundred and fifty rooters, who showed the Cincinnati people up in this respect and made the trip lively from beginning to end. The University Band made a great hit, giving a concert at Fountain Square before the game. The game was very hard fought throughout, being replete with spectac- ular plays. Had the game been played under the old rules, Miami would have undoubtedly won, as she found no difficulty in going through Cineinnatfs line for five and six yards, but not quite the requisite ten. Lack of practice made the new features of the game, especially the forward pass, ineffective. All the men played good ball; C'ustenborder and Schlenek both distinguished themselves by some brilliant work. Though most strenuous eHorts were put forth by both teams, neither was able to score, and the game closed with the goal lines unpassed. Page One Hundred and Ninety-seven Page One Hundred and Ninety-eight WITTENBERG GAME On the twentieth of October, Wittenberg and Miami came to- gether 0n the home ground. The team did not seem to have been in nearly as good shape for this game as it was the week before in Cincinnati. We were also compelled to labor against the disadvan- tage of an official who was inclined to see things only one way, resulting in our getting the ttshort end,, of it quite frequently. The game closed with Wittenberg the Victor by a score of 11 t0 0. CENTRAL GAME The game between Miami and Central University was played October 27, with conditions very unfavorable for football. The wind was blowing a gale, and it was impossible to punt against the wind and equally impossible to judge punts accurately. Central won the toss and chose the southwest goal with the wind at their backs; thus they were able to keep the ball in our territory. Cen- tral played fast and consistent football, and by heady work brought the ball to our twenty-five-yard line, where they tried for a place kick, but failed. Miami kicked out, and Central by rapid work brought the ball down to our one-yard line, where Miami held. The ball went to Miami on her one-yard line. Here Miami showed great spirit and brilliant work by carrying the ball Iifteen yards in three downs, where she kicked out of danger. Central came back at us and drove us back to our twenty-yard line, where Miami pro- cured the ball, and in an attempt to kick out of danger the ball was fumbled by the full-back and the wind carried it across our goal line, where Stephenson fell on the ball, thus giving Central a safety, counting two points. After Miami had kicked out from the twenty-five-yard line, Central got the ball and by a series of very fast plays brought it down the held and scored a touchdown; Central also kicked goal, making the score 6 t0 0. After this Miami took a brace, and with the wind in her favor kept Central hghting in her own territory through the remainder of the game. Miami put up a remarkable defensive game, but lack of team work was in evidence in the oEensive, and the failure to get together and carry the ball was the cause of her defeat. Miami could do little with her end runs, but by bucking Centralts line was able to make first down frequently. At one time, in the second half, Miami had the ball on CentraPs two-yard line, and on account of the plucky defense of the Ken- tuckians, combined with Miami,s nervousness, failed to get it over the line. It was a clean game and hard fought from start to finish. The speed of the Central backs and ends won the Victory for them. T HE MARIETTA GAME The most satisfactory game of the season was played on Miamits field, November 3, against Marietta College. Weather conditions were favorable, a good crowd was out, and the team was in good The Cincinnati Game Page One Hundred and Ninety-nine Page Two Hundred physical condition, all our men being in the best condition of the season. Marietta had one of the best teams of the State this year, and there were few who thought our team would be able to do any- thing with them. The men on the team were not at all optimistic, but were determined to hold their opponents down to a low score. How well they did this we all know. Marietta started in with a whirlwind attack, but she found her- self up against something she was not looking for. During the entire first half the ball was shoved, carried, and kicked back and forth, neither goal being in very great danger of being crossed. Twice in this half Mariettats star kicker dropped back for a kick from placement; each time he failed, Miami blocking one and the other going wide. The half ended with the score nothing to noth- ing. The next half Marietta came back with a determination to win, and Miami had the same determination that they should not. Both teams played like liends; Miami could do but little in carry- ing the ball, while Marietta worked her forward passes and line plunges to good advantage; but when Within twenty-five yards of Miamiis goal they could do nothing with our defense. Another place kick was tried by Marietta in this half, but it failed. Stephen- son always punted well and it looked as though the final score would be nothing to nothing. About eight minutes before the end of the game, Jones received a severe blow in the head and had to be taken out; Shultz was sub- stituted. Marietta had carried the ball to Miamils thirty-yard line when Miami recovered the ball on downs. Miami called for a punt, the ball was passed high, Stephenson failing to get it, and a Mari- etta man got the ball before it could be recovered. Marietta realized that the time to score had come, so with a forward pass of eight yards and a series of fierce line bucks she succeeded in putting the ball over, with five minutes left to play. Marietta kicked goal, score 6 to O. For the remainder of the game the ball was in the middle of the field most of the time and the score at the end of the game remained the same. Miamils entire team played with spirit and determination; they were all stars and the offense did better than at any time previous. THE EARLHAM GAME The Earlham game was played at Richmond, Ind., on a field covered two inches deep with mud, and with rain pouring down during the entire game; fast work was therefore impossible and it resolved itself into a game of luck. Miami by very stupid and unspirited playing allowed Earlham to cross the goal line for the first touch-down within two minutes of play, by straight line plunging and short end plays. The loss of Smith and Stephenson in the line of defense was keenly felt. Miami stiHened up her defense at this time and played better ball, although lack of spirit was evident, due partly, of course, to the disagreeable conditions under which they played. About twelve minutes of ttnip and tuck playing elapsed before the next score was made. Miami had the ball on her own twenty-yard line; a forward pass to Schultz was tried; the ground was so slippery that he was un- able to get the ball, an Earlham player getting it, and by dodging along the side lines he succeeded in eluding all the Miami men and in scoring the second touch-down. Earlham failed to kick goal and the score stood Earlham 11, Miami 0. For the rest of the first half the ball was mostly in Earlham,s territory; our fellows A Tackle were putting up a much better game by this time. The feature of the first half was Custenbordeids thirty-yard run on a delayed pass, which would have resulted in a touch-down had the field not been so slippery. The second half was uneventful as far as sensational playing goes, but Miami played a much better game than in the first half and Earlham was unable at any time to gain consistently, Radcliffe punted well and kept Miamils goal free from danger. Schultz and Schlenck both tackled hard and sure and several times nipped in the bud what would have been a long run. On the whole, the teams were pretty evenly matched, and on a dry field Miami should have won the game. Page Two Hundred and One Page Two Hundred and Two THE DEPAUW GAME The last game of the season, November 24, with De Pauw, was, the most disastrous for Miami. Continued hard luck of the two weeks previous had deprived her of three of her Very best men and s0 weakened the line that the defense, which had been so solid all season, was materially compromised. Nevertheless the team fought well and the last half did some very good work. The De Pauw team had been very much underestimated this season and it was a surprise to Miami to find that she was so strong. The day was ideal for football but the field was a little slippery, making it hard for the men to get started quickly. In the first half Miami showed great lack of team work and did not. get together in the defense at all. The half closed with a score of 14 t0 0 against us. In the next half the men took a brace, and, with the exception of the first three minutes, held De Pauw well. De Pauw run in four or five new men at times during the last half; but still they were unable to increase their score. Their team was well trained, and in team work they clearly 011t-classed us, but their team was at its very best while ours was far below its condition at the time of the Marietta game. This game closed the season which from the standpoint of games won could hardly be called a success, but on the whole we were pretty well satisfied. A new game, quite a lot of absolutely new material, and stiff opposition were among the principle causes of our defeats, none of which were severe. With a splendid lot of material which the season developed, we can be justiiied in looking forward to next year as one of vastly increased success. CAPTAIN RUPERT Egrsonnel 0f the Film Hi.

Earmzlze Coach That When Parmelee undertook to coach Miami last fall he was tackling a hard proposition, no one will deny; and that he handled this position exceedingly well, every one is willing to at- firm. Parmelee never coached before and had been out of the game a year, and, moreover, the rules under which the game was played this season were entirely new. As a coach ttHanki, was as popular as he is as secretary of the Y. M. C. A., which is saying a good deal. Miami has never had a coach who applied himself more assiduously to the work of making a successful team, nor one more faithful in the performance of his duty than Parmelee; nor has she ever had a coach who at the end of the season held the respect and affection of the team and of the students as did Parmelee at the Close of the season of 706. Erottgant Qtnne Trainer XVhat doesnit tCap? know about athletics? Precious little that is worth knowing. Though not strictly a football man, Pro- fessor Stone knows the game, and as an auxiliary adviser and coach, is indispensable. ttCapW always accompanies the team as chaperone when they leave home, and in this difHeult capacity is pronounced as entirely satisfactory.

PROFESSOR STONE RADC LI FF F. mbc IJBacIafielD 99m 23mm; Kanclittz, hos Right Half-back After a yearis retirement from the field of football endeavor, Radcliffe again made his appearance on the gridiron, and, being the best all-round man for the place, made the position of right half- back, Which position he played practically throughout the entire season. Barney lacks somewhat the nervous snap and force necessary to make a really good half-baek, but he is a hard worker and plays consistently to the best of his ability. He, in all prob- ability, Will be in the squad next year and a lively candidate for this or some other position. 31. dEatI Giugtmhornzt, .10 Left Half-back Custenborder, like so many serious Freshmen, was possessed dur- ing the first part of the season With the illusion that he did not have time to play football, but having a powerful iihankeringh for the game he finally decided to come out for practice. Quickly demonstrating his ability he made left half without much dif- ficulty, playing for the first time in the Cincinnati game. iiCus- sieii held this place during the remainder of the season, playing a thoroughly good and at times brilliant game. He Will be back next year and we conclude, quoting Doctor Hayes When presenting Custenborder With his iiMf qu have not seen much of you as yet.

Stephenson has always played a consistent game, making good to the best of his ability, which is not inconsiderable. It is up to somebody to fill his shoes next season, as he graduates with i07. 19am Stblentk, tog Quarterback It is a matter of no little difiieulty With us to decide just how to Classify iiPatf, Whether to put him down to end or quarter.

By observing a little more the rules of training, he ought next year to make one of the best men on the squad, and able to make good at either end or quarter, for that matter, and we are expecting nothing less of him than that he will do this very thing. SCIILENCK SMITH mhe dBuatns William Smith, '08 Left Guard Another impregnable spot on the line was that occupied by ttBilY, Smith. For two seasons ttBilPi has been a stone wall on defense and a smasher in the offense, and his withdrawing from college along toward the latter part of the season was a loss ex- ceedingly difficult to make good. We are not assured that Smith will return again in the fall, but we hope, however, that when Sep- tember comes the desire to get into the game will bring him back to his old job of holding down left guard. lenmaz 521.13.:2m2t, ,10 Right Guard Among the annual crop which is commonly termed ttraw ma- terial? there was no one better than Rymer. ttTommyii was not persuaded to come out for practice until the season was consider- ably advanced, but he learned quickly, and his playing at right guard was of such a character as to predict for him a great future in football. We are expecting great things in the future of Rymer, and feel confident that he will make good in all expectations. RYMER Page Two Hundred and Seven COFFMAN Page Two Hundied and Eight 7112b: madam: 190mm minimum, .09 Right Tackle iiBudiVsi? very laudable ambition to make the team materialized this fall and practically every game of the season found him plug:- g'ing away at right tackle, a position which he filled very well. XVith this year7s experience and the brawn acquired of climbing telegraph poles during the summer vacation, we may reasonably expect to see Cioffinau in great shape to hold down his old job at tackle 01' perhaps elsewhere, but wherever or whatever it is, we know if it is in him he will make good, which is all that can be expected of anybody. lemiz 18.11pm, t08 Left Tackle On the whole line there was no more impregnable spot than that occupied by Captain Rupert, who set the pace for his team by putting up a splendid game during the entire season. As a captain, Rupert was conscientious in the discharge of his duty, being a splendid model for his men and an inspiration to a stren- uous effort. The fact that Rupert is to he with us next fall is one of the reasons why we may prophesy with some confidence that the team of ,07 is going to be a winner. RUPERT, CAPTAIN JOIINSTUN 7113b: QEnhg cheater Johnston, tog Right End Wyhen in September, t04, Johnston, since dubbed ttBig Johny landed in Oxford, he had only seen two football games in his life. He, however, straightway presented himself for a place 011 the team. After a few weeks of work he showed up the latent possibilities which were rounded into shape to the extent that he made the team the first, season, holding down guard in a very thorough man- ner for two years. This year, however, by a, strange feat of neces- sity and policy, despite his six feet and over and nearly two hun- dred. avoirdupois, Johnston landed on right end, and there he played as good, if not a better game than he did atlguard. There has not been a more consistent 0r faithful worker on the whole squad than Johnston, nor one who deserves more credit, for whatever sue- eess Miami has had. Kitbatn 310mg. .09 Left End Jones was seriously handicapped in a eonniiendable attempt to make the team by a sprained ankle received early in the season.

JONES Page Two Hundred and Nine BLYTHE Page Two H undred and Ten dtbe minim tContinueda William 2512th Among those Who may be looked upon as possessing some good football possibilities, Blythe must be counted. In the first three games of the season he put up a very scrappy game at right end, and may be considered as good football material. Ability to co- operate better and more experience in the game Will do wonders for ttBilPt and make him a football player. dibweg dBartnn, t08 Garrod must also be counted among those out of whom the coach next year ought to develop a team. For one new to the game and altogether Without experience, Garrod showed in the game in Which he played possibilities Which, When developed, ought to make for Miami a player capable of advancing her interests in a football way.

Booth, at center, plays a splendid game, always being there with the goods.

As quarter-back and end, Schultz has shown that, though lacking in size and weight, energy and grit are pretty good substitutes, and, despite the ab- sence of beef, we believe there are more real good quarter-back possibilities wrapped up in Schultis diminutive form than in many much larger.

In the short period during Which he was on the squad, along toward the end of the season, Brewer made good to the extent of playing in several games, his work being of the sort that looks good to one on the watch for material. With the knowledge and experience gained this season, next year ought to witness the beginning of a very successful fooball career. 05. w.

The first game was played with Georgetown on April 18, and lost by a score of 12 t0 4. The team then journeyed to Lexington where they received a second defeat at the hands of K. S. 0., score, 12 t0 6. After a Very pleas- ant night in that city, Manager Reed conducted the remnants of his team over High Bridge to Danville. Here two games were lost to Central College on April 20 and 21. Scores, 14 t0 7 and 14 t0 3 respectively. The poor showing of the team on this trip may be attributed to many causes: In the first place, our grounds had been in such a condition that practice on them was impossible. There was be- lieved to be much good baseball material in school and it was prin- cipally on this faith that a term was picked to'represent Miami against the Southern colleges. The day before the trip, by action of the University Senate, five men were asked to stay at home. And so the team went and tried to play a number of units, each 01 which may have been all right in itself, but taken collectively were unable to cope with teams that had had teamwork and training. Our next game was played in Cincinnati, April 30. Our team was given a drubbing by U. of C. to the tune of 16 t0 0. It seems useless to offer any apologies for such a score, but we might say that it was partially due to the poor grounds at Burnett Woods. and much more to the poor batting ability and lack of practice of Miamiis team. On May 5, we were a second time defeated by Georgetown, and this time on our own grounds. There seems to be no excuse for losing this game. The Visitors came here to play the last game of a weeks series and should have been easily defeated. The one redeeming feature of the season was our game with U. of C. at Oxford. This was supposed to be our hardest game, and because of this all men on the team worked hard for a week before. Each man was determined to do his best against our Old 2566! 253 1906 t Coniinumh rivals, and even the invincible Bob Caldwell could not stop the Miami Sluggers. In the field, Miami played an errorless game, and when the smoke cleared away the score stood 5 to 4 in our favor. Danville was scheduled to play us at Oxford, May 18 and 19. On account of rain on Friday, both games were played on Satur- day, the nineteenth, and both lost by Miami. Scores, 7 to 2 and 9 to 2. Lack of practice was again in evidence in these games, hence the outcome. The two games against Franklin should have been won by Mi- ami. Grineris pitching in both games was iirst-class, but his sup- port was poor. Both games were lost by close scoressthe game at home 6 to 4 and at Franklin 10 to 9 in a thirteen-inning contest. The game at Franklin was won and lost several times. In each of the extra innings, when it seemed that Miami was a sure win- ner, the lack of judgment of some player who had not been in uniform for a week before, showed itself. In this game, too, poor management on the part of some one, as in many of the other games, contributed largely to the result. A good batter lost his place in the batting order to one who distinguished himself by striking out whenever a hit was needed; a man was played on first base or some other base who probably never played baseball before, but with a weeks practice and the exercise of his ttgoati, qualities could get in the game. The team was weak for want of sleep as well as practice in many games. For these and many other rea- sons, the scores of 1906 show a failure in baseball. As we go to press it is impossible to say anything definite with regard to prospects for the present season. There seems to be a good deal of material in college, and Miami ought to have a splendid team. The lessons of last season might impress upon the team the necessity of hard and persistent practice during the entire season, as the primary requisite for success. Unless the team comes to a realization of this fact, there will not be much doing. t Page Two Hundred and Seventeen iami IBaEMBaII ileum 1906 Page Two Hunder and Eighteen Faro and .cord $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ Coach, Professor Stone Manager, Roscoe Reed Captain, John Markley Catch67 DeMand First Base MCLaugh1in Second Base Timberman Third Base--Emerson Short-8t0p WeHiVer T.

The game is fast and ttserappyb and capable of develop- ing a great deal of the skill and dexterity which makes the great game of outdoor baseball s0 universally popular. For the last several years teams have been organized on a fra- ternity and non-fraternity basis and a series of games played for a pennant. This year, however, it was thought that it might be more conducive to the development of a stronger class and college spirit to have teams representing the various classes compete for the championship of the college, and the teams were organized on this basis. It is impossible to tell at this time which class will be Victorious, though the Juniors seem to have the best. team. The first game of the season between the Juniors and Seniors was one of the best games ever played on the gym floor, and resulted in a Victory for the Juniors, the score being 6 t0 5. The other games have been equally interesting, and we believe the new scheme will be as sue- eessful as it deserves to be.

SCHWEICKART, MCCRORY, BRANDTEL, Forward Center Reserve Guard For a game so recently introduced Gast year being the first time it was recognized on the same basis With football and basebalD, basket-ball is assuming quite a prominent place in the athletics 0f the University. .There is no game Which deserves to be more patronized and fostered than this strenuous Sport Which combines in such harmonious proportions those elements Which make a game valuable-skill and dexterity, together With Vigorous bodily exer- tion, and the putting Of a premium on generalship and head work. A large number of men are devoted to the game, and every afternoon the gym is the scene of some lively contests for the sphere and the basket. There are two or three teams in the Page Two Hundred and Thirty University and Academy and the competition for places on the first team is pretty lively, a condition of affairs Which is conducive to the development of the best possible team. Basket-ball is a game Which Professor Stone especially delights to coach, and we may expect from his efforts that a Winning team will be evolved; It is quite impossible at this time to predict the outcome of the season, but from the Character of the games played up to this time, which on the whole have been good, it looks as if, after the last game has been played, Miami will have made a very creditable showing. lBagketdBall tConrtimwdt ttOld War Horseh Sehweiekart, captain of the team, is playing a fine game at center, and always manages to have listed to his credit a goodly number of the baskets thrown. Emerson, Britton, and Jones, of last yearts team, are playing ereditably as forwards, While Bandtel and MeCtrory, two new men, are making good playing guards, With Feeney and Gamble not far behind. Snyder has been a thoroughly efficient manager, having arranged and carried out a vet'y well-balanced schedule. Whatever success the team may achieve can no doubt. be ascribed in no small degree to the good work of Snyder as manager of the team. The interest manifested in the game and its increasing popu- larity tend to point to the conclusion that Miami will soon excel in this very commendable brand of athletics, and send out teams capable of meeting the strongest colleges in the State.

Igdies, Basket : 5311 If basket-ball is a splendid game for men, it is certainly true that it meets the requirements for an active and yet not too rough form of sport for women, to a degree not possible by any other game. The sport is very popular With the CO-eds, and their annual game with Oxford College is an event eagerly ariticipated and Which always results in a Victory for the Miami girls. The team also played a game With the girls of Wilmington College, who, we are very sorry to say, defeated our team. This defeat will no doubt be retrieved at the first opportunity, and despite this reverse the en- tire institution is interested and loyal to the girls basket-ball team.

For some reason or other these meetings were discontinued and local meets between either the fraternities or the classes came into vogue. The result was that there came about a steady decrease in the interest of the student body in this very delightful and impor- tant branch of college athletics. The management last year, however, determined to revive the old method of intercollegiate contests, and arranged a meet with the University of Cincinnati for the 12th of May, to be held at Miami. Interest in track athletics increased immediately, being stimulated also to a considerable extent by Markleyis brilliant work in getting a worldis record for sixty yards in a meet at Chi- cago, with the result that quite a number of men went into train- ing to win places on the team. The trial event to select the Varsity team was held Saturday, May 5, and was an exceedingly interesting aHair-interesting be- cause so many of the events were hotly contested, showing a very active interest in the coming meet with U. of C. The day for the long-looked-for contest with our old rival, Cin- cinnati, dawned clear and beautiful, and remained so. There never turned out for any athletic event a more enthusiastic audience than graced Miami field on that splendid May day. The Varsity was out in force and was supplemented by large delegations from the college and Western, as well as the town. The field and track had been put into the most perfect condition, and a corps of marshals kept the crowd within the bounds and prevented the usual flooding of the field with spectators, which so frequently mars the pleasure of such an occasion. The first event called was the 50-yard dash, and Markley won for Miami by an exceedingly small margin in 53:; seconds. The 100- and 200-yard dashes were both won by Markley, with Maddox, of Cincinnati, a strenuous competitor. The 100 yards was won in time equaling that of the worldi s record, 933.- seconds. The, quarter, Page Two Hundred and Thirty-Iive 7112mm athletics: tOontinucm B sag half, and mile races were all won by Miami, she being also second in the two latter. Cincinnati won the discus and the shot put; Bifiami was Victorious in the hammer throw, pole vault, and broad jump. The high jump resulted in a tie, MiamYs contestant Clear- ing the bar immediately after, however. In the final event, the mile relay, Miami finished a great days work by winning this event in the very excellent time of 3.46;. At no time was the issue in doubt, as it soon became apparent that the opponents were completely outclassed, and the tinal score stood 30 to 14 for Miami. A beautiful satin banner had been pro- vided for the winning team, and Doctor Benton, in a very neat speech, presented it to Captain Boyd. It is now the Chief decora- tion in Professor St0ne7s office in the gymnasium, and, we trust, is the first of a great number of such evidences of Victory which will in the coming years be gathered into the trophy room as evidences of such splendid Victories as Miami7s track team won in this Cin- cinnati meet. JOHN MARKLEY, JR., XVORLD'S CHAMPION FOR 60 YARDS. Page Two Hundred and Thirty-siw attack atblztiw tOontinuedi L1 This successful revival of intercollegiate iield meets is worthy of enthusiasm, and deserves to become a permanent feature of our athletic activity. With the prestige of such a propitious beginning, the track team ought to go right 0n developing strength until we can meet and defeat the best college teams in the State. Nothing less than this ought to satisfy us, and there is absolutely no doubt as to our being able to do this very thing if we will but take advan- tage of the unexcelled opportunities we have here at Miami for this sort of athletics, in the person of Professor Stone, one of the a world,s greatest track men, a splendid gymnasium, and fine grounds for outdoor work. The annual indoor meet was held on the evening of March 2. The gymnasium was crowded to its full capacity. The meet did not come up to the standard of those held during the past two or three years, there being fewer entries than usual and the competi- tion much less strenuous. Shideler was awarded the iirst prize, a handsome gold medal. C. Markley and E. Wilson tied for second. Markley won in the toss-up and received second medal, Wilson 6 getting the third. By far the best feature of the meet was the exhibition of club swinging given by a class of twenty-four co-eds, under the direction of Professor Stone. The various movements were executed with a degree of skill and precision which showed much practice and final mastery of the art. At the conclusion of the rather long and difficult list of evolutions, the girls were given a well-deserved ovation by the delighted spectators. With regard to prospects for success in outdoor field work this spring, it is difiicult to be very definite at this time. A very con- siderable amount of athletic ability of various sorts has been mani- fested in the gym this winter, and there is, without a doubt, material in college for a winning track team. We understand there is a reliable prospect for our entering into relations with three institutions for field meets this spring. This is altogether as it should be, and a knowledge of this fact will no doubt serve as a stimulus to such effort as will develop a team which will do valiant battle and gloriously Win for old Miami.

Miami is fortunate in possessing a beautiful, nine-hole golf course, which is in perfectly good condition during the season. The tennis courts on the front campus are very inadequate to supply the needs in this respect, and at least three more courts would be very desirable indeed. The eo-eds have their courts near Hepburn Hall, and they are well patronized and much enjoyed. : The interests of both golf and tennis suffer very much at Miami because of the lack of any organization among those interested to take them in Charge, stimulate interest, and arrange tournaments, ette. If an organization were effected we might look forward to regular tournaments with other universities, which would serve greatly to arouse and stimulate the interest of the student body in these Splendid sports. If the friends of both golf and tennis take this matter up and form such organizations, it might be the means of securing better facilities in the way of better courses and more and better courts, in themselves worthy objects of organized and systematic interest. ; w mkwhww , 1107-; Iilwvol tittwwew 2111131121: drampuz Mama Page Two Hundred and Forty-nine m mthologg $0 Rarely can such a group of great poets be found together as recently was with us, and never before has the peculiar spectacle presented itself to mortal vision of such great men, all inspired by the same theme, all writing on the same topic. But such a theme and such a topic is among us, and I now present with great pleas- ure the effusions of these various poets as inspired by a lofty Miami topic. First, that ever-present abomination, the limerick: There was a young man named Mayne. Who did not enjoy the rayne. Said he, ttIt is so wet, I hate that, you bet? Now, wouldnit that give you a payne? He fell in love with a maiden, His knowledge of Greek was paraiden: To her he did write, He wrote all the night, And the postman was quite overlaiden. Next, an account will be found in the Chronicles of the Fresh- man, Testament of Miami, as follows: 1 Now, in the days after the fast. of the vacation was passed, there came to Miami a youth; and they called him Virgil, which is, by interpretation, a straw. 490 i? 06;: 2 And Virgil was out of West Elkton, which is in the land of Preble County. 3 And Virgil purposed that he should grow exceeding wise under the eyes of Guy Potter, who at that time was ruler over the Miamianites. 4 Now it so befell Virgil that with him there entered into the abode of Greek, a maiden. 5 And hunto Virgil this maiden, which was out of Gallipolis, was of an exceeding grace and comeliness. 6 And Virgil spake unto the maiden, thinking to talk with her. 7 But the maiden saw it not so, but turned her back upon him, which signifieth, in the language of maidens, three and twenty, O stranger, get thee hence. 8 And straightway Virgil sat himself to write epistles unto the maiden, which he did with exceeding zeal. Kipling, in one of his happiest strains, hit upon this: Virgil Bevis Mayne. sir, iWest Elkton is his homeJ Left his parents roof-tree-to Miami chanCed to roam. He hoped weld educate him, but, Lord! it wasnit long iFore Virgil Bevis Mayne, sir, could teach us all a song. He met a blushing maiden, together they read Greek; He lost his bloomini heart to her inside one bloomin, week. An' then he up and starts to write, and morning. noon, and night, His daily love he writes to her-ani you know that isnit right. 06: Page Two Hundred and Fifty-one 52m anthology $0 Poor Edgar Allen never wrote but one stanza, and then went off into one of his terrible iispellsf, brought on by morphine. I give you the exquisite morsel: Once there came a lad so dreary. with a look so weak and weary, And with eyes so very bleary--things we ne'er hadiseen before, That a maiden, little knowing what a heart therein was glowing, Did not know what she was sowing as she smiled and crossed the Iioor; Did not know what love was growing as she passed the classroom door-- Only this, and nothing more. Longfellow, our American Prince of Letters, sweetly expresses his thoughts thus : Away from home one Virgil Mayne Away to school went he; Like a little star in the big blue sky, He went to Miamee. To her whom there in class he met, Her whom he soon held dear, Sweet words of love he soon did writee Sweet angel words to hear. Isnit that characteristic of our gentle poet? See how different are these words of immortal Milton in their impressive roll: Thus Virgil. with his slighted love intense, Which burns as bright as e'er Apollo's car Gleamed down upon the deserts Ethiop sands tContinuedJ Page Two Hundred and Fifty-two I am ashamed of myself concerning Chaucer. exquisite little poem of 14,000 lines which accidentally fell in the fire.

Among them may be mentioned the following: STONEMERYA-gen'us athleticus.-A peculiar specimen with a round head resembling the full moon. It moved at a rapid pace With a marked swinging motion and made a noise loud as a fog- horn. HAYESTARIA-genus easternus.-A dapper-looking little bug which made a peculiar noise almost recognizable as human language; also seemed to delight in making this noise. $V W35 POWELLYMPUS-genus psychus.-A rare 01d bug, very stately and dignified. Had peculiar hair-like growth on lower part of tifacefi which it preened continually. Use of this growth not known, un- less tvery unlikelyi it be for adornment. GATESICUSu-gen'us talkibusf-An immoderately long and slender bug, especially so as regards its legs. Had remarkable power in opening its jaws tit was proved impossible to hold them closedi and emitting queer noises, at which time it would gesticulate in a truly ridiculous manner. PHELANUS-egenus p0liticus.-This truly remarkable creature is not native to the vicinity, and it terrified the natives When first here discovered. Most striking feature seems to be that the thing carft get enough to eat. Has special predilection for beefsteak. W4. 5:0 MO ms mmsxi Page Two Hundred and Siwty-one Rtaeatcb Mark $WVI4 30 ,2 WIN ROBINSONIAegenus paddyslrzmus.eA bright red bug, which sleeps during the daytime, feigning sickness, and is quite active at night- time. Likes best to be with horses, preferring boxstalls to human habitations. PYENUSegenus innueeA new genus, nothing like it ever having been found before. MARKLEYN.A--ge'nl.ts sprintus.-Must be of the grasshopper fam- ily, for it would ttspit tobaccot, whenever requested. Preferred the night time for its activities. tUOntinuem X $Mlez ?mmxxe SWANNUS-genus mucker.-T00k delight in biting people when- ever it got a chance, often dealing a deadly, poisonous blow. The University has decided to keep it as an interesting specimen. KELLERINUS-genus postgradus.-A cute little bug making a very pleasant noise, and seeming at times almost able to carry a tune. Seemed rather old and that accounts no doubt for its sloth- fulness. DUD CLEA Page Two Hundred and Siwty-two ERS.

Page Two Hundred and Eighty-three N ORTH DORH SENATE Fire in Oxford ct? Late in February, 1907, a most noble demonstration of the bravery and true heroism of Oxford,s gallant firemen was per- formed before the admiring gaze of unnumbered multitudes gath- ered to witness the spectacle. But let me begin, not in medias res t1 hope Heppy sees thisl, but at the proper end of the thing, the front end. About 9:00 RM. tbeware of this lateness in Oxford; it breeds crime, eth, ancient and honored Mrs. Betty Parsons, of Ethiopic descent, residing above Bill Riehardsorfs cobbler-shop, discovered a spark in her bed. This was so unusual an occurrence that she immediately stepped to the window, raised it, and called for others to come see the spectacle. By this time, however, the spark, nour- ished by the life-giving oxygen of heaven-sent air, entering through the opened sash tof the windowl, had grown into a nice little flame of about the size of a mans hand. Men, entering at this point, carefully refrained from doing any Violence to the fire, deciding, upon consultation, that it would be better to do way with it by means of the more ceremonious fire brigade. They departed, taking with them the fainting coloress, now colorless from fear, leaving the luckless bed to its fate. ago es: All was confusion. Down the middle of the street dashed the Beta firemen, singing their stirring anthem, iWVe are, we are the firemenis band? and trailing in their wake was the hose-reel and all the rest of Oxford. Above their heads clanged the fire-alarum, while over all the flickering light of the now husky little conflagra- tion made shadows dance in ghostly figures. Hastily the hose was attached, connection was made sure, the nozzle screwed on, the crowd fell back in anticipation, four strong men grasped firmly the nozzle, yelled the signal to their waiting comrade at the iire-plug, who thereupon turned on the full force, andea cunning little stream trickled from the nozzle and collected in a puddle at the feet of the four strong men who were grasping firmly the hose. The fire-pressure was not on at the water-works! 96 96 96 96 96 96 96 '36 96 96 Half an hour later, with a warning stiffening of the hose, a noble stream of water shot from the nozzle, generously distributing its volume upon the unnumbered multitudes gathered to witness the spectacle. The nozzle was quickly recaptured, however, and trained upon theeno, there wasnit any, for in the meantime a bucket- brigade had been formed, and long ere this the fire of that night was dead. es: Page Two Hundred and Eighty-five Oxford Qllege QGTSC in erespoodence 1113b: 7mm My Own Sweet Miami: I have the blues to-night, and you know you once told me if you could ever do anything for me in that line, you would; so please just listen to me, dearest; that is all I want. When I think of our living right here in the same little town and yet so far away, I almost die. I saw you this afternoon and you reminded me of Greenland. Darling, do not cut me that way -you know I love you better than all this world. I would not want to be here a minute if it were not for you. Oxford has meant so much more to me since I met you-I hate to leave it. Think, dear, the other night when I got here and no Miami at the station to meet me-oh I-I wanted to go back again and stay forever and try to forget you. Of course, I never could do that. No girl ever could. One can tell so quickly what you are. They know that back of those wonderful brown eyes is the grandest soul that God ever made. Oh, Miami, how can I live without you-I cant, you are my all. I have known it all along, but have been trying to cover up my feelings; but, Miami, dear, I cant any longer. I could hardly control my tongue the night you came to see meewhen you were sitting there by the fire with a cigar and the reflections of the tire played across your strong face, my desire was to slip down at your feet-and just gaze and gaze at you. That itself would be heaven. Oh, Miami, don,t you love me just a little bit? You must tell me-of course, if you donit, life is one dark cloud; and if you do, just a bit, then a bright streak will light it up. Oh, my God, I have got to have you or die. I cant help it-I must close now. Forgive me, darling, for this, but I can,t help it. I am yours with the love of my whole heart and soul, forever, Your COLLEGE GIRL. Page Two Hundred and Eighty-siw QDrtnrn aroma: drums: in cottespnnuzntz taontinuedl 'dlibz angina Sweetheart .' Do you know that you have written me the most beautiful letter that I have ever received in my life? I have read it over and over and over, and now that I know it by heart, I know, too, that you are dearer to me than ever before-4if that be possible. I am not ashamed to tell you that part of it I have read through tears. It has made me happy ; it has wrung my heart; it has made me under- stand you even better than I ever did before, and I thought I knew you to your heartis sweet core, my love. What has this letter'done for me? It has touched my ears and thrilled my heart with the sweetest music God gives man to hear on e'arth-e-the melody of a true woman,s love crying for tenderness and perfect faith. I know that I am the one love of your life, as you are of mine. I shall always feel the same for you forever, forever-I know it. Thrilled through, as it has always been, With an intense longing, ever since I met you, my love for you has been to me a holy and sacred thing, and I know that you love me with all the purity and strength of your character. Is it only for an experiment that you have done this-is it only to test your power? If this is all, then you are more cruel than you are beautiful-and I am just one more fool. I have felt more rapture crowded into one brief hour of this day than in years of hopes and dreams. There is more of joy for me in the soft pressure of your little hands, there is more of heaven in the radiance of your eyes than any heaven that hope can ever bring. They are eyes that a man might look into during his last hours on earth and think his Whole life well spent because of them. It seems to me I could write you thus forever, but the golden moments are flying. Write me very soon, dear heart. Until then my life will be a dream, and that dream the sweetest woman in all this world. Your own, MIAMI.

Page Three Hundred and One Et GD bmiami HthorD, QDIJI'D This famous institution of learning was organized in 1824, at Oxford, Ohio, forty miles north of Cincinnati. Its foundation was laid in I792, while the Ohio Valley was almost an untrodden wilderness, the Congress of the United States reserved a tract of land to be located between the two Miami rivers, to be devoted to the support of an institution of learning. This tract was located by the State Legislature in the year 1803, and consisted of a township in Butler County, Ohio. In 1809 the legislature passed an act establishing the University. The whole country at that time was heavily forested and almost a wilderness, consequently the advance of population was slow, so that the year 1816 had come before the hrst school of the University was opened. The University proper was organized in 1824, and the first class graduated in 1826. From the beginning Miami University stood for thoroughness and high standards, and drew into its classes a high order of talent, which explains why there are so many distinguished members in its alumni, namely: The great War Governors of Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, and Illinois; eX-President Harrison, Prof. David Swing, Sam Galloway, Hon. Whitelaw Reid, William Dennison, Caleb B. Smith, John W. Noble, Theophilus Dickey, Benton. J. Hall, Murat Halstead,' Dr. W. C. Gray, Bishop John Walden, and many others. Such was the inhuence of the college, direct or indirect, that Ohio was for a time the leading State in the Union in the number and ability of Page Three Hundred and Two fit QDIn Qlaiami her generals, jurists, legislatures, diplomats, orators, educators, ministers, lawyers, and physicians. In fact Miami graduates have filled every important part in the country,s service from the Presidency down. What Miami has done for the country in a past generation she is doing now for the future. She stands for equal development and discipline of the mental and moral, as well as the physical powers, thus perfecting the highest type of manhood. The magnificent campus of sixty-iive acres is studded here and there by its splendid buildings, such as Brice Scientific Hall, furnished with the most modern apparatus and facilities for teaching science; Herron Gymnasium, equippedl with all the latest and most improved gymnastic contrivances. The Main Building, which is 250 feet long, includes the beautiful chapel, recitation-rooms and' offices, and the two dormitories for young men, which have recently been litted up with the latest improvements. The Library occupies a part of the second iloor 0f the Main Building and consists of some 20,000 volumes, among which many rare old editions may be found. The three departments of the University, the Academy, the Normal School, and College of Liberal Arts, afford all the advantages obtainable at the best universities of the land. While advantages of learning at Miami are of the highest quality, it is possible to obtain them at a moderate expense, as the tuition is free and the cost of living reasonable. The present administration maintains the policy which has dominated the school from its infancy. For catalogue, address PRESIDENT GUY POTTER BENTON, LL.D., Oxford, Ohio.

Phone 43 STRICTLY FIRST-CLASS LADIES WELCOME Page Three Hundred and Nineteen DONlT itSCRAPEll YOUR FACE-SHAVE IT! So-called safety razors either scrape your whiskers off, or partly chop and partly pull them out. This leaves your face sore and irritated. And it is all on account of such razors being built like hoes. Their handles are set so that you have to pull the blades over your face with edges set at an angle slanting toward your face. That scrapes, chops, and pulls your whiskers, makes your face sore, and not even the safety device can keep a blade set with the edge toward you from gashing your face occasionally. The Eureka Safety Razor is different. It is not built like a hoe. It is worked with the same old-fashioned downward glid- ing stroke of the clasp razor. It gives you a smooth, clean shave and leaves your skin smooth and your face unirritated, because the handle is set so that the blades cut your whiskers off squarely with the blade edges turned up and a little away from your face. This, with the safety device, protects you absolutely from cuts and gashes. Look at the cut. It shows the only Safety Razor that works with a razor stroke-that really shaves you. THE EUREKA RAZOR CO. FOUNDED IN 1852 To prove thise- The Eureka Safety Razor is Sold on 30 Days Proof Test F R E E Your dealer will make good this offer, or, if he has no stock of Eureka Safety Razors, we will make it good direct fr01n our factory.
