Herron, 0f the class of 1845, President of the Board of Trustees of Miami, died at his home in Cincinnati on Aug. 5, 1912. Mr. Herron was the last survivor of his Class, which numbered twenty-seven members. He was noted for his love for his Alma Mater. F or fifty-two years he was a member of the Board of Trustees, and from 1880 he was the honored president of the board. It has been said that Miami owes more to Mr. Herron than to any other man. Mr. Herron was very largely instrumental in bringing about the reopening of the University in 1885. He has been described as the greatest college trustee in America. After his graduation from college he had a distinguished career as a lawyer. He was a member of the Constitutional Convention of Ohio in 1878-74, and was U. S. District Attorney under the Harrison administration. He was married in 1854 and had a large and very interesting family of children, one of whom is Mrs. William H. Taft. Mr. Herron enjoyed the distinction of being the first lawyer admitted to practice before the U. S. court of appeals for the Cincinnati district, estab- lished in 1901. l- ,1 : i. 4' 'Z i, i 13 . .4 1. i i i ii e i - 1- . -- .nT?-.nw .--..,...--.-I-.. 1r. .1 ....Ha.s's.;. A k HON. JOHN W.

Kersting Secretary EfIie Eby Treasurer Ear1 Anderson 52 i 3.1;3 GEORGE TAGGERT EVANS, .1 i', Toronto, Ohio. A vaudvillain and a 10W-brow come- dian! A court clown and a destroyer of hearts! iTis said that the top of his chiff looks like a photographers advertising case. It has also been said that nthe world is too much With him late and sooniieespecially late. Tags is the author of that popular ballad entitled tiT he Good Old Summer Term. Other of his accomplishments are mentioned elsewhere in this volume, With illustrations. SIDNEY ERNEST GRAEFF, J It IS, Oxford, N. Y. Heis been all over the United States and part of Kentucky. ii Dutch peace- fully bathes in Chemistry and Spanish and works in football. To see him eat chestnuts and drink cider one would know he is an iiEasterner. He makes friends just about as hard and fast as he hits two hundred pound centers in a football game. Since iiPug saw to getting some of the grind pictures he has developed greatly in the art of self-defense. This fact helped him greatly while on guard duty in Hamilton. 53 WILBUR ETC. DAVIS, JR., 1! 'I'l', Oxford, Ohio. W. L. Y. Davis iJuniori, unlike most ministeris sons, follows the straight and narrow path of Virtue. We know from frequent remarks that he con- siders his father the ideal business man and man of lettersea genius in fact, and we hope that Wilbur, too, may have this versatility. He has a wonderful knowledge of electricity and sparking is at present his chief accom- plishment. Because of his extreme self-confidence and his capacity for making money talready provedi we feel sure he will make a stir in the world and be a credit to his Alma Mater. WILLIAM DOELLER, 'P J H, Columbus, Ind. Yes, that fellow right over there with the red and white hat, the red sweater and the white trousers, thatis the one. Who on earth is he? This is one of the common questions during football season and it refers to iiBillii Doeller. The ilCount is right there on the cheer leading and dresses as loud as he cheersait helps out. Bill likes to study but he has hard luck in finding time to do so ; with his piano and other arts his time is pretty well taken up. The girls all say that he is good looking, and this, along with his good smile, makes him one of the martyrs to the cause. JAMES CARR, '11 .4 '1', Oxford, Ohio. Wow! Bangll Crack!!! 21 military salutes, the band and three Miami Yip Yips. James Gates Carrabeg pardon, Captain Jim. He was picked for manager of the Recens10 by the girls because each one thought that she was giving a vote to her soul mate. And then he went out and made good: first, by getting ex- perience selling aluminum ware and the Home Life Magazine; secondly, by going after ads and subscriptions as if he was preparing to break the Cincinnati hoodoo. This write-up must be brief but you may get the remainder any time from Whipper himself; only be careful not to get his summer school version which is always much perverted. 54 LESTER JOHNSON WHITLOCK, If H 11,. P1qua, Ohlo. Lester is so slender that he has been said to resemble the shortest distance between two points. iTis also said that he would be 0. K. if he hadn,t sprained his intellect in Doc. Powellis metaphysics class. He says that it is his chief ambition to be connected with the U. S. Steal Company or to become private secretary to a blind millionaire. Lester, in fancyis nick- eloden, we see moving pictures of your finish. STANLEY PALMER, J Ir 12', Auburn, Ind. Stanley is one of our artists, notice it in his romantic countenance CD iiCap at one time was under General Runkle; traces of this early training are now noticeable in his gait. As for scholarship he passed an English 2 exame-what more can we say? During the flowering days of the Miami band, Cap held the position back of the bass horn with an ease only discernible in Wagner or it Heine? who plays with the ltGermans. RICHARD NEWBOLD, J l', Toronto, Ohio. N ewbold, the unassailable. The Miami girls for two years tried to attract this pompadoured, literary, athletic per- sonage, but with no success. And then he fell for a Western girl. She holds the secret of the seducement. It is said that his quiet demeanor is all a bluff, and that in reality he is a rough- house fiend, and the perpetrator of many notorious crimes. Oh, yes e and Dick is Recensio editor. 55 CHARLES STUART CLARKE, :2 'li' P, Kane, Pa. Clarke is a man of startling charac- teristics. He talks Spanish like a native and has other peculiarities of the race. When wandering in the light de la luna he contracted a Violent case of armor de senorita and now he devotes his time to pipe dream- ing. Stuart is very fastidious about his personal appearance. He has been known to wear evening clothes to class and uses his finger nails for a mirror. We have heard he has a private pharmacy. MARY FOSTER, .1 .1 .J, Higby, Ohio. Mary started out in prep school and has grown up with the institution, though she still wears hair ribbons. She shows her love for sweets by her daily Visits to the Chocolate shop. If by chance you have criticized this giddy dame, remember she is a Junior takingi, Senior privileges, for she wont be with us next year. The famous red hat which is immortalized in another section of this book has since been destroyed in the Phi Delt fire. CHARLES MCGREGOR SCHULTZ If H II, Wellsville, Ohio. ttPuss,i owes his fame to his iiOde on the Imitations of Immorality, and his nickname to the fact that he is some cat With the femmes. iTis said that once Bob Graham barely rescued him from going to the Western with a dress suit and a red tie on. tiIsnit it a shame; heis such a cute little fellow, too, remarked a Senior girl. What did she mean? Considering the fact that he comes from Wellsville, itPuss is a pretty good guy. 56 DELLA ELIZABETH HARVEY, Carlisle, Ohio. This little girl is one of Colbornis admirers, so you see she is just a little bit different to start with. She dotes on history, dancing, and basket- ball. She has traveled extensively and is an interesting conversationalist, but because of her retiring disposition few of us have had the opportunity to appreciate her real worth. She is good at deciphering Vogtis black- board lectures; this shows wonderful mind development. ill. . In .l nsltyp PARKE G. SMITH, lb J H, Oxford, Ohio. P. G.-Procter and Gamble Smith. No, girls, not soft soap; not soft in any particular, and anyhow hels s-sh Hels m-m-married. The Juniors are happy to have him in the class, first, because of his many sterling characteristics; and second, because he's an ever present example to the student of the results of the historic college romance. He will some day be a surgeon, for he learned as a Prep the famous double-cut, now the curse of the Deans Office. IRIs ENOLIA MAXWELL, Indianopolis, Ind. Enolia is one of our new Junior girls. She came to Miami last fall from Butler, and we are glad of it. They say that she has an artistic tempera- ment. If you don,t believe it, just look through the Recensio. Enolia also has great executive ability. She rules with an iron sway; no one thinks of disobeying her. Among other things she is a basket-ball enthusiast and simply dotes on Greek. 57 b u-un nu. .. Kmnno nu nun. .- LOUIS FRANKLIN HAMMERLE, d! .4 4;, Hamilton, Oth. Lou was encouraged to cultivate his oratorical ability, first because he could not write legibly or spell correctly. Then he practiced his convincing art of speech as treasurer of three organi- zations at Miami. Now as Y. M. C. A. President, he has the rare speaking ability to imitate, by means of gestures and staccatoed words, a cursing try- out all without saying even Hfudge? In spite of his verboseness, he has been able to keep one secret- Viz., he wrote those ltAggie Dove diaries for the Student. BURTON DEBENEVILLE KEIM, .1 Ir Ia, Miamisburg, Ohio. The personification of versatility. De Beneville can sprint, sing, play foot- ball, throw his voice, and make a noise like any animal in the menagerie. He qualified for the Piper Heidsick Ornery Fraternity in his Sophomore year, and as a member of the 3rd Miami Volunteers, served with dis- tinction in the third and fourth battles of Lower B streeteuntil the Major ordered the place closed. BEULAH FRANCES GREER, .1 Z, Indlanapolis, Ind. Everyone at Miami knows Boots! Though small in stature she can talk almost as much and as big as a certain professor in Logic I, and she sometimes does. They say this comes from having been a school marm out in Indiana. Beulah has the usual grace of the Hoosierethat of Winning friends. She is fond of picture shows and loves Economics, and some say, the boys. Look at that picture. What do you say? HOW about reversing it. 58 J ESSE HUGO BRILL, Phrenocon, Camden, Ohio. The thought of Jesse makes us posi- tively ashamed of this wicked world. The saddest incident in his life was when, on his arrival at Miami, he saw pool tables in the Y. M. C. A. room. Jesse expects to spend his life in a fight to exterminate that awful intem- perance, the use of tobacco, and he will probably succeed if he doesnit kill himself eating pie. ALPHONSE ADAM KERSTING, I: 1-; ll, . Ottawa, Ohio. That may be our Presidentls name, but we hope not. Anyhow, we call hlm ttDutch. He was elected to lead us through our Junlor year by an over- whelming maJorlty. In fact, no one ran against h1m. He says he used to be very bright When he was young. We are glad that he has such happy days to look back upon. Please understand that his nickname$ uDutchlledoes not signify any infatuation for a distinctly German beverage. We don't know where the epithet originated, but it is decidedly better than Alfy. ttDutchl, is a good athlete, a social lion, and a first-class student, besides being an all-round good fellow, so why worry about a name? Herels to our President. MARCELLINE H. ROBERTS, .1 z, Rensselaer, Ind. Marcelline isewell we just cant begin to tell you everything about her. Itls this way. We all like her but she keeps us guessing, for instance, we donlt know when she will appear wearing a D. K. E. pin and when she will appear wearing a D. U. pin; of course its none of our business, but we are a little anxious. N 0, she isnlt fickle, sheis just friendly. Mareellinels good fellowship and smile make her one of the real Junior type; and were glad to have her in such a noteworthy class, tlnuf sedfl 59 BENJAMIN FRANKLIN SWEIGART, Phrenocon, St. Marys, Ohio. We cannot write him up in prose. At thought of him, the language flows in rhymes and metaphors and feet. He has a case that cant be beat. At chapel time and ,twixt each class he roams the campus with a lass whose name is Ann. And it is said she has completely turned his head. We have here cases by the brood, but this one takes the angel food. EARL C. ANDERSON,$3 '1 P, Oxford, Ohio. Here is an honest man. He is treas- urer of the Junior class. For two long years the ordinary,. high finance, etc., members were looklng for a man who could and would handle. the sum of money incident to a Jimlor Prom and still come across Wlth a. plus balance. Andy is the first Mlaml man who has done this thing. There was no excuse for miscalculatlon in his books, because here is another of those per- secuted members of Doctor Young's Rogues Gallery. Who cannot tell from his picture that this honest fellow has had more than his share of trouble? Above are the reasons. LEE W. FOX, S! 'I;' It, Brookville, Ohio. One of the members of the Miami Zoo. His ability as a speed merchant usually keeps him out of fights; his inherent shyness prevents him from being captured by the Co-eds. He first gained fame as a deserter from the ranks of Ohio State, and this reputa- tion was added to by Doc. Young who made him a member of the Rogues, Gallery. Foxyis Bertillon thumb print as recorded in the Gallery resembles closely a scrawled F. 60 CLARENCE LEROY MAGILL, ID J H, Eaton, Ohio. Well, for the love of Michael tas Doc. Powell would express it in slangi! What Christmas tree did this drop from? A combination of Irish name and Dutch appetite! High Mogul of the L0 Brous, Past Grand Master of the Piper Heidsick Ornery Fraternity and a perambulating cold storage for humorous anecdotes! Mac is said to be the most popular Phi Delt in the Junior class. Why? Ask us not. WALTER MILLER, Phrenocon,Tr0y, Ohio This is Walter Miller, but we shall call him Jack so that you may know Who is meant. Chronologically this tale should start With J ackis birth, and Jack was a pretty baby. But aside from his beauty he did not amount to very much. His sole efforts seemed to be to cause an increase in the Miller family laundry bill. This propensity should have revealed to Miller senior, the future tendency of his little Walter, for, true to early tendencies, this promising Junior has gone into the laundry business. At present he is the only full-fledged, manis size business man in the university. PAUL LEROY DILDINE, Dayton, Ohio. Paul seems to be a demure little man but still he has fight in him, perhaps Colborn can back us in this from what we heard. Another thing, Paul stayed over Spring vacation and had to make some money so he started chopping wood. This was all right as far as it went, but it went pretty far. He could be seen at qulttlng tlme eagerly scanning a meal ticket. He told us afterward that a three-dollar meal ticket and chopping wood didnit coincide. Paul is some baseball player, and the result of his wood chopping showed on the baseball diamond. He has the best chop stroke of any one on the squad. 61 RUSSEL BAKER, If H II, Oxford, Ohio. Known by the newspapers as tithe great Baker. When Bake takes the swine skin something happens, and it usually happens to the opposing line. His passes were the talk of the middle west last year. Rustle is the roughest, best-natured and sometimes the nois- iest guy on the campus. And every man on the campuseyes every man in town - is his friend. He is due to score frequently in the game of life. 0 69 TGQEQQT ERNEST A. GRABIEL, Phrenocon, West Mansfield, Ohio. Of course everybody knows Ernie is F renchy Youngis pet ball pitcher, but his other accomplishments are equally remarkable. He has the happy faculty of creating smiles and laughter when- ever he wishes. Many a time a glum professor has warmed up in response to his irrepressible good humor. His most obvious faults are his desire to attract public attention and the unus- ual development of the ego in his nature, what? ARTHUR FERGUSON SHUEY, .1 A If, Camden, Ohlo. Heis going to be a great man some day, some of us think so, and he is positive of it. Arthur has one Miami record. He can make two dates, break one and get away with it. To hear him iibum tobacco in French, muddle theorums with love lyrics and bid itno trumps, one would easily know that he is getting a liberal arts educa- tion. His wonderful executive ability is shown by the manner in which he handles sandwiches and coffee at the ii Smokers. i i 62 ERNEST H. VOLLWEILER, Phrenoeonh Shandon, Oth. Ernest comes to us from Shandon, Ohio, where they still take seven meals per day. He arrived in Oxford with wooden shoes on and porting a suit case full of pretzels, but you wouldnt suspect it now. He has reduced his waist to normal proportions, banished sauer kraut from his menu and limited his feeds to four per. He has the usual Teutonic profundity of intellect and is a strong bidder for Phi Beta Kappa. Hoch der Vollweiler. ESTER YOUNG, Indianapolis, Ind. Ester is particularly well known because of her very warm heart. Its so easily affected that she has a new fiance once a year. And yet she isnlt a flirt either; shels in dead earnest. She goes in for all the sciences, botany and campustry in particular. We imagine she met Lee thi'u her interest in these two. At any rate we know she didnt register for gym. last year because her work in campustry with her Senior man took so much time. MORRIS GRIFFITH TAYLOR, J A 12' Hamilton, Ohio. ? Prof. Todd found it in EC. IV. ytis whispered, and we miss it if M. G. Taylor appears not on a flashy insur- ance blotter within the next few years. IIMoseii has four hobbies, Economics, Insurance, Spanish UN, and Girls. The last named has his most hearty support; but we should blame him when he cant decide. Another whole year containing a spring and a fall is coming, ItMosefi lots of time. 63 t :; ewwvwwwweww 4s t RUTH STEVENS, Grand Rapids, Ohio. Gee, I almost fainted when I heard it. I had known Stevie for a long time, but ugh! I didnt once suspect her of bai'bai'ism. Why, she is an assistant in Zoology lab. and pickles frogs, and skins the cat, and puts the do-dads 0n crawfish. Golly, I donit know whether I believe in education or not when it takes a sweet, pretty girl like Stevie and teaches her to do such things. Qlem$ MADGE WAKEFIELD, J J J, Loveland, Oh10. So straight and stiff she marches by, that her fellow students tremble t0 accost her. Unbend just a little, Madge, remember a smile Will carry you farther than an icy stare. Madge is noted for her dancing as well as the ease With Which she gathers in the As and Wins the professionial pats 0f approbation. She is very fond of travel and her chief ambition, so ,tis said, is to own a Carr and know how to run it. PEARL BELLE AYERS, Hamilton, Ohio. When Pearl became old enough to talkeand didnttethe elder Ayre added an tts t0 the family name because it would never do for his daughter to carry a name which was a slang term for talkativeness, and then to so betray the name. So Pearl may now be called Ayres. T0 suit this name the elder Ayers now took another stab at destiny and sent his daughter to Miami, the place where aristocrats are made to order. 64 BERTHA A. MEMEL, Hamilton, Ohio. ttTootie has the distinction of being the only coed in school Who appreciates English 2. So she deserves to be placed on an even more fiowery back- ground than this one. She wears spectacles and tries to look like a ttschool marm, but they say that she is a live wire in Bishop Hall. And what more could be said for a coed. EARL HETZLER, Phrenocon, Germantown, Ohio. ilRed is a product of the evolution of the human race. When in class room he shows one feature of the evolution. When wrasslinl he displays more evolu- tions. iiRedli hails from Germantown, better known as Mud Lick Distillery District. To hear Red talk one would imagine that he has been in other towns than M. L. D. D., but we know that his bicycle has not carried him farther than Oxford. On the plat- form itRedl, is equalled only by Mutt and Jeff. Nuf sed. MILDRED SNYDER, J .1 J, Oxford, Ohio. Mildred is the only truly lers we have in the class, although there are quite a few with good prospects and a still larger number of tlhopefuls She is the busiest person about the Uni- versity, not even excepting the presi- dent. When we catch her smile and her word of iisass as she whizzes by with a stack of books under her arm, we can appreciate the Freshmanls mistake when he said, llare you entering first year normal or domestic science? 65 WILLIAM DIEHL, Phrenocon, Dayton, Ohio. You should see William eat. His gastronomic feats are the pride of the University Commons. He is not par- ticular what, when, or how he eats. He simply craves masticatory action. William says Hthere is nothing like a good, healthy appetite, and all wit- nesses of his practical demonstrations admit that if there is they havent seen it. Cc; CcEmgw EFFIE EUGENIA EBY, West E1kton,0hio. Would you guess that this dignified- looking young lady is Efiie Eugenia, a demure looking little maiden but one who has just quantities of determina- tion when it comes to having her own way about anything? We wonder how one small head can contain so much Math and Chemistry; and she speaks French like a native. GEORGE ALBERT MCNEIL, Loveland, Ohio. iiThere is more in heaven and earth, Albert, than is dreamt of in your philosophy . Mac is noted for the fact that he is the only man in the class who is not noted for anything. He is the one self-conscious man in college who is able to get away with his assumed air of dignity and intelli- gence. Handsome from birth, he came to Miami, not to be educated primarily, not to imbibe of the Miami spirits, but to acquire a set of manners which make him a marked man. But beneath this exterior there is e-What? It is doubtful whether Mac himself knows. 66 HELEN LINDSEY, If 'I' 2', Piqua, Ohio. Dignity did you say? Why, justia bluff. Whether making fudge or attend- ing meetings she is always right there with her order-book. Deliberate in all her actions, she expects the opposite of everyone else. But underneath this deliberateness and false dignity, we still find an unselfish, tolerant, and good natured Helen. MARY HEATH, HI, Hamilton, Ohio. Mary has one ambition: to ,find some one who can dance better than any man in school, and then to dance for a week. But there are other things that interest her. This smile orignated when some one mentioned the law as a profession-for men, not women. Donit imagine that May is a suffragette, or at least, dont tell her so if you want her to continue to be amiable. CATHARINE MORRIS, X 5!, Liberty, Ohio. This is our Kitty in one of her infre- quent, serious moods. She should be .. reproved for imposing on the public in the way she does. Sheis really very fond of fun and has a keen sense of humor. tShe could even smile when Prof. Culler gave her D in Physich Another of her most admirable, most enviable characteristics is her happy faculty of being able to talk when she has nothing to say. Her small talk helps her out of many a difficult situation in the class room, and others less gifted marvel at her genius. 67 MARGUERITE WALDEN ROYAL, X 52, C1nc1nnat1, Ohio. Marguerite entered our Junior class this year a finished product of the Ohio State Normal College, although she may not be so well known to some of us, it is only necessary to iind the Madrigal and Y. W. C. A. cabinet pictures or to hear her give an announce- ment to know whether she is making herself heard. Marguerite never ven- tured very far into love, but some people do wait until after they have received a liberal arts education and read at least sixteen Chamberis stories. o Qing BLANCHE ALTMAN, Bryan, Ohio. Miss Altman came to us this year from Defiance. Though apparently reserved, she has been known to stir up things in general in some of the rooms in Bishop Hall. More ambitious than one would imagine, choosing journalism for her future work, her one desire is to see her name on the scroll of fame ranked with that of Ida M. Tarbell. FLORENCE BRYANT, Oxford, Ohio. Who said Florence chooses snap courses? Does she look it? Not much. ' She goes in for Greek, heavy things like drama, art, and literature. Thatis peculiar, too; they say opposites make the best of friendsebut we have large proof that there are exceptions. 68 IDA REINHART, .i' 53, Cincinnati, Ohio. Ede, did you say? Why, of course, sheill be glad to do it for us. Yes, anything from Recensio write-ups to prom work just as long as it doesnt interfere with those frequent Visits of some of her Cincinnati friends. Here she is now With her quiet smile and cant you tell just by looking at her that she is competent and worth While? J OHN O,HERRON, Phrenocon, Covington, Ky. John celebrates two days of the year; one Saint Patrickls birthday anni- versary, and the other his own. He has an extensive knowledge of bookse- library books. ilOiHerron. I believe, John, that I should prefer to use just plain Herron myself? And she said itjas if she meant it. ALFRED EVERHART, Phrenocon, Greenfield, Ohio. Alfred the Great wasnlt in it with this boy. Hels got a job with nearly all the profs. and it is said that many a time they have asked advice of him. In the Glee Club, Alfred is a shining star. His voice peals forth like the roaring thunder and Burke claims that he has a find. Everhart shys at girls to a certain extent; we think that Uncle Sam is his cupid and some say he has gone pretty; deep. We are looking now to see him go without several meals because of the diamond. N ow just look, Alf! 69 LELAND W. HAINES, J Ir 1;; Bloomingsburg, Ohio. A little fellow, but we should remember the saying about good things in little packages. liPug likes the girls. It is said that he has one in almost every town the Glee Club does not hit, and in those which the Glee Club Visits, he has two or more; but we cant hold this against him; they all say its those big eyes. '-:',..:. AZa' f3, v H 3 ix SINAH PRISCILLA THRIFT, Oxford, Ohio. The one student in Spanish I who has immediate need for it. Self-instruc- tion was insufficient; so Spanish I was necessary. Why? Well, if you received nice long letters in Spanish, wouldn,t you want to read theme what! Priscilla is all that her name implies, thrifty along with a very pleasant manner. SAMUEL CARR, '0 A4 'I', Oxford, Ohio. You can listen to Samis line of talk for fifteen minutes, and when you write down what he has said it will fill a space about the size of the sporting column of the Christian Advocate. Whoa, Sam! Doggone it, hold still till we get through with you. His only claim to notoriety is the fact that he is Jimis brother and that he writes near-jokes for the Student. well have to admit though that he is the confectionery child with the ladies. 4i.,v s HELEN BRADLEY, Milford, Ohio. She flits among us, nodding here and there, but seldom talks. Quiet and somewhat bashful, yet into everything and a good steady worker. She has been known to have a date with a MAN, but how true this is we cant vouch for, because she seems to stay away from any masculine humanity while attending college. But we heard of the case at home, Helen; no its too far down on the page now to mention it. But go ahead, dont be afraid. MILDRED FOWLER, Union City, Ohio. bA girl of unexpected likes and dislikes. Isnit afraid of any one except her Math Professor. You might think her favor- ite character in literature would be Hamlet. But she expresses a pref- erence for iiSentimental Tommy. She possesses rare volubility, a gift which she inflicts upon no one except her roommate and a few others of the iirst floor when she expounds iiwomenis rights. Is determined to match her sister,s recordeto be obligingeand to be a suffragette. ELSIE MCCHESNEY, J .1 .1, Terrace Park, Ohio. If you see some one enter the station like a hurricane, hat over one ear, suit case under her arm because of missing strap, trying to catch a train Which left 15 minutes beforeewell that,s Else. Although she is on the Y. W. C. A. cabinet, she is a iisolitaireii fiend and has been known to say darn traised to the nth degree on more than one occasioni. Else has four claims to fame, her bobbed hair, dimples, masculine stride, and her daily letters from Pittsburg. 71 JENNIE HARBINE, Liberty, Ind. Hear that voice reverberating down the hall, its hollow tones sounding like the clap of doom iiAll Hail, Macbeth. Itzs J ennie practicing her Public Speak- ing and incidentally getting in training for her life work of elevating the stage of America. e $ bow GRACE BAKER, .1 Z, Oxford, Ohio. Grace is an Oxford product and is really a credit to the Village. She has the talent of always being the same and her optimism can always be counted on. Whether her brown eyes are truly demure or hiding mischievous thoughts, we don,t know, for she keeps us guessing. MICHAEL FERRANDO, Youngstown, Ohio. He was home under the sunny skies of Italy but soon afterward moved to the Irish part of America. There he was raised,,named and partly educated. He is finishing it at Miami in quite a successful manner, and we have heard it whispered that he is conducting a love affair in the same way. LEAFY J ANE CORRINGTON, It' '1' 2', Mason, Ohio. Miss Corrington is one of our dignified, studious members. All the girls stand in awe of her-she has such an unnat- ural taste for the iologies. She thinks receptions are a bore, and does hate ceremony! However, she may take exception to one because she has a. ttLiddil interest up at Northwestern that is quite absorbing. And still we call her loyal to old Miami. RUTH ANDREWS, If 'I' 2', Conneaut, Ohio. Ruth is known to us all as a sweet, demure little maiden, but to whats-his- name she is known as-well we are not saying, lcause shels part of the Recensio staff. If Shakespeare could just come to life and look us over he couldnt find one who appreciated his works more than Ruth. Ruth has taken an active part in all college activities both for girls and boys, because at one time she was very busy assisting a certain manager of an athletic squad. Thatis all Ruth, just keep it up. .f... EDWARD E. ELDER, J T, Pioneer, Ohio. Elder, of Hawr-Hawr fame. One of the Ancient Order of the Permanently Attached. Perhaps this accounts for his happy chuckle, which can be heard all over the campus. He is one of that coterie who have worn before-and- after-chapel paths of their own. Eddie was chief engineer of the best Prom in Miamiis historywand the only one that didnit cause a rummage sale and four special assessments. 73 a ' . I. v' i . ,f - ii ' 1;v 2: a .6. 'l h Ir '3 'i'c GRACE LAURA DU BOIS, It 'I' 1', Piqua, Ohio. Grace has the merriest disposition of any girl in college ltis said, and such a contagious laugh. Isnlt it a shame her hair is curly? Her two greatest likes are German and Math, with mice as a close third. She is very fond of entertaining, and as a hostess she surely deserves her pet name of thracious.

Margaret Ralston Treasurer .................................... Roscoe Saylor History of The Class of 1915 As each Sophomore class before us, we can claim the distinction and honor of being the best ever existing Within the walls of Old Miami. As a class passes from year to year, we watch its growth and improvement, which While individual, adds its parts to the great wholeethe University. Like the rest of our kind, we propose to toot our own horn, and to claim our undisputed place in the Hall of Fame. With the laying aside of the grey cap with its green button, which made us its Victim, we, the class of 115, as martyrs, step forward into a field of greater opportunity. It is not to be forgotten that we were the first to be given the privilege of wearing a distinctive cap, and so necessarily we were the first to be subject to the ruling regarding dress suits and Freshman caps. But the class of 1915 was not to be easily conquered; mere regulations held no fear for us. Our spirit was unquenchable and defiant. It has shown itself in many ways-once it meant a splash in the fountain for two of its 76 members. But the class succeeded in showing the rest of the students that it had powers of fight and will, which lead them to 100k for greater things. And now we have passed into our second year with added strength of which Morris Schneider is a large quantity, and we have not been disappointed in the career of our second year. Well represented on the football squad, on the track team, in basket-ball, and in all other student activities, literary and social, we have brought in spoils to hang in our trophy room. We have made innovation unknown to classes before. It is with a great deal of foresight and business ability, that we have in our Sophomore year elected a member of our class as assistant manager of the Recensio; the idea being that more efficient management may result in our Junior year. Everything that the class of 1915 has done, has shown ability, foresight, energy, efliciency, and spirit, which we believe unequaled by any preceding class of Miami. 1f: mint; 3 . -I:. I F1.

Indeed not, for she is. She could not feel other- wise, when such a large class was guided by Fortune to her very gates. You may think, since this class is great in numbers, it is not a brilliant one. Some classes must make up in size, what they lack in knowledge; but not so With this one. They have not yet been working one year, and their duties have been so performed as to be satisfactory from every point of View. Their advisors feel that they Will be successful, and their influence will be greatly felt in the future. MARJORIE MCNAMARA 109 Q Ghenag Ayers, Mary Battin, J essie M.

Q QEmg 152 the Student forum SENATE Elwood Reeve Warren J . Smith R. A. McMicken Thomas W. Reilly . Fred Black The most evident thing about student self-government at Miami is that it itworks. Consistent success of this one- time experience has resulted in an implicit trust in the Forum by students and faculty with the result that more powers have been given to it. Meetings are held once a week at which are presented those matters of interest to the student body, both of a large and of a minor importance. The purpose of the Student Forum is to bring the students into a closer relation with the university administration, and to create a deeper and more personal interest in the problems which are constantly arising in connection with the college life. The consideration of student problems by the students themselves is a step in the direction of the creation of an ideal college community. The Forum may consider, upon the recommendation of the Senate, any question pertaining to the welfare of the university, and by so doing inform the administration what is the majority opinion of the student body upon the question. In the past year not a single instance has been recorded 0f the refusal of the administration to follow the wishes of the Forum where it was possible to fulfill such wishes. The most important action of the Student Forum has been the adoption of the honor system, which applies to all final examinations held at Miami. This year the matriculation Wallace Prugh, President Ruth Cameron, Secretary Ernest Grabiel, Vice-President A. A. Kersting 153 Ida A. Reinhart Ernest W. Myers Helen Bishop Marvin Pierce 0f the Freshmen included the compulsory signing of a pledge to support the honor system. The system was extended this year to include chapel attendance. Each student is expected to be in his assigned chapel seat and to report all absences upon his honor. Another duty of the Senate has been the regulation of all class contests. The rules for these contests and their enforcement have been entirely in charge of the members of the Senate. Although it has long been the desire of the Miami upper- classmen to compel the F reshman to wear some sort of class insignia, it was not until the organization of the Forum that this action was taken. Last year for the first time the men of the Freshman class were ordered to wear distinctive caps. All obeyed and were to be seen strutting in true first year style, at all times surmounted with a small grey cap bedecked with green trimmings. This year a more formidable design was chosen and again the Freshmen were to be seen, distinguished. Student Self-Government will persist at Miami. Its value has been well demonstrated Its duties may be compared to those of the doctor who, sitting by the bed of his patient, hand on pulse, is ever ready to administer to such needs as may arise. Greater success and greater power is predicted for the Forum when its value to Miami becomes fully appreciated. 9 Ten? the Politics Zlub The Politics Club, organized this year, is an informal organization of Miami men who are interested in current questions and problems of a political nature. The purpose of the Club is to afford opportunity, every two weeks, for free, informal discussions of such questions, by men who are suf- ficiently interested to take active part and to contribute real enthusiasm. The Club developed out of Professor Colbornis class in Political Science. As conducted this year, the main feature of the organization has been the lack of formality. A steering committee of three members constitutes the only office of the Club. There has been no definite fixed meeting place. And the meetings themselves have been characterized by absolute informality, the aim being to preserve Vitality and to arouse real interest. During the year very interesting and instructive dis- cussions have been held on such problems as iiThe Mexican Revolution? iiThe Chinese Revolution? and iTTroubles in the Balkan States? Interesting talks have also been given to the Club by capable men, such as the talk on itSingle Tax by Mr. Joyce, Superintendent of the Hamilton Schools, and the talk on HPolitical Conditions in Germany? by Professor Hoke. The Politics Club has been very efiicient in affording valuable instruction in live, current affairs, and its infiuence has been for the good to Miami men. STEERING COMMITTEE Professor E. F.

The executive committee for the past year was composed of President Frank Sweigart, Secretary and Treasurer Louis Hammerle, Prof. A. L. Gates, W. J . Miller and Omer Thacker from the Miami Union Literary Society, Ernest Grabiel and Spencer Montgomery from the Erodelphian. . The annual oratorical contest was not held thls year, due to the breaking up of the OhiO-Indiana Oratorical League. The Old triangle with Denison and Wesleyan was also broken up, and a new triangle formed. The new trlangle is composed of Miami, Denison, and Oth Unlversity. The question debated this year by the ti'langle was the commission form of government, Miami winnlng the trlangle with four points. Miamiis affirmative team was composed of Messrs. A. R. McMicken, John Finley, and O. S. Thacker. The negative team was made up of Messrs. Fred A. Hinkle, Clarence Kerr, and Harry Freeman. A tentative plan is being considered for the formation of an extemporaneous speaking league among the colleges of the state. It is not definitely known which colleges can be inter- ested. The plan is sure to meet with success next year if not carried out this year. The breaking up of the Ohio-Indiana Oratorical League will not prevent the holding of the regular local oratorical contest for the $25 prize awarded by the trustees. It will be as usual and will be open to the students of Miami. the triangular Debate OHIO UNIVERSITYiDENISONeMIAMI March 15, 1913 QUESTION RESOLVEDzeThat all cities of Ohio having a population of 15,000 or over should adopt. a commission plan of government.

Smith, Alternate the Years work The Ohio Wesleyan-Denison-Miami Triangular League f ormed last year was this year broken up. Because of Wesleyanls disagreeable attitude in regard to the selection of this yeafs question for debate, both Denison and Miami withdrew from the league With the intention of holding a dual debate. How- ever, this idea was later abandoned. And after some nego- tiations, a new triangular league was formed. This league consisted of Denison, Ohio University, and Miami. The question selected for debate was: ResolvediThat 157 all cities of Ohio having a population of 15,000 or over should adopt a commission plan of government. A large number of speakers took part in the debating try-outs which were held early in the season so that the men might have ample time for preparation. From the candidates eight men were chosen, six regulars and two alternates. The debate was held March, 15, 1913. Miamils negative team won from Denison on our home platform, and our affirmative team lost to Ohio at Athens. 0 69 501550 Qt: w kt? miami Defeats Dennison at oxford Unanimous in favor of Miami was the decision of the judges of the Denison-Miami debate held at the Miami Audi- torium, Saturday night, March 15, 1913. The judges were Hon. Howard Bratton of Dayton, Judge H. T. Mathers 0f Sidney, and Judge George L. Gray 0f C0nnersvi11e,1nd. These men are each of prominence in the legal profession, and the justice and fairness of their decision goes without question. The debate showed very careful preparation on the part of both teams. The subject was handled in a thoroughly masterful and intelligent man- ner. The argument was snappy and very much alive at all times and held the close attention of the audience. AFFIRMATIVE DEBATING TEAM Denison put up a good scrappy fight, but it was Ofno avail against the superior work of the Miami debaters. The Miami team deserves special commendation for their excellence of team work and for their ability in forceful refutation. In these points they easily excelled the Denison team. 158 miami Loses to mm at thens NEGATIVE DEBATING TEAM Miami 10st at Athens by a split decision of the judges. The vote was 2 t0 1 in favor of Ohio. The debate was intensely interesting from start to finish, the burden of proof constantly shifting, and the outcome was in doubt until the last minute. The battle of wits and words was fast and furious, for both teams were keyed up to the breaking point. It is hard to say which of the two teams was the better prepared. Both teams gave evidence of very careful research and study. They had collected a great fund of knowledge on the subject which was very ably handled indeed. The clash of opinion was very evident at all times, and the teams met with a head on collision over the question of the fusion of the legislative and administrative powers. The rebuttal speeches welfe especially spirited and keen, each side striving to gain the last advantage. The Miami speakers were much the superlor 1n thls particular phase of the debate. Professor Gates deserves great credit and special commendation for the very careful and effic1ent manner in which he coached and directed the Miami debating teams. He saw to it that they worked and worked hard. The results of the triangle were: Miami, negative, won from Denison. Miami, affirmative, lost to Ohio. Denison, negative, won from Ohio. Denison, affirmative, 10st to Miami. Ohio, negative, won from Miami. Ohio, affirmative, 10st to Denison. 159 o EDD Erodclpman On September the twentieth, 1912, Erodelphian opened for the year of 1912-1913. The meetings of the society have been marked by fine programmes and good attendances; and the interest of the members has run at a high stage from the very first. And Erodelphian made a good showing on the debating teams this winter. Harry Freeman and Louis Hammerle represented the society on the negative team, while Revelle McMicken and John Finley were the Erodelphian men on the affirmative team. The inheritage that the society received from the last year members has grown beyond the hopes of even the most optimistic 0f the 01d members. The spirit of the organization has been forward and upward to higher ideals. The spirit OFFICERS Presidents; R. A.

The society has witnessed a good healthy growth since the opening in September. At the opening of college last Fall, Erodelphian had but twelve active members. But Miami had received a good supply of real live literary people in the new men who found their way to this historic institution. The number of members advanced from twelve to twenty-threee all real, live, active members. The present outlook for the future of Erodelphian is of the brightest kind. The society under its new constitution, has received new strength, and with the members who will return next year, Erodelphian ought to go onward to a grander heightlthan it has ever gained before.

With a smaller membership than that of last year, Miami Union has indeed succeeded in advancing its historic high standard of efficiency in literary work. Meetings have been regular, and attendance good. And every program rendered has been entertaining and helpful. An effort has been made by the Program Committee all through the year to prepare programs which would arouse the interest of all members, as well as furnish good, practical experience to those taking part. Variety of program has been a feature. There have been debates on live questions of the day ; there have been discussions of political and social problems; there have been orations, declamations and readings; there has been extemporaneous speaking on local questions of interest; and there have even been mock trials and spelling FIRMAM CONSENSUS FACIT ColorsaRed and White. matches. Least stress, perhaps, has been laid on music, because of comparative lack of talent. Another feature of interest and helpfulness, too, has been the Parliamentary Law Class. This class, held before regular meetings, has afforded excellent training in the proper modes of conducting public meetings of any kind, a training valuable to any man. As a proof of efficiency rendered, Miami Union this year was proud to own and contribute four strong members of the garsity Debating Teams, namely Hinkle, Kerr, Thacker and mith. Thus, Miami Union still continues to contribute a large, important share to the sum of Miamils activities, affording a training that will help make true men of ability. OFFICERS Presidentse J . H.

Due to the interesting topics taken up, an unusual amount of enthusiasm was shown by the girls. The meetings were scheduled to meet every two weeks and the program, planned at the beginning of the year, was faithfully carried out. The work of the first semester included a study of Interior Decoration, while the second semesterts work dealt with Civic Art. The large membership and the regular attendance at the meetings indicate the deep interest which the girls of the Liberal Arts department take in this, one of the most active literary societies at Miami.

It was the aim of the society to arrange a program Which would prove of interest to all the departments of the Normal College. At first the society held open meetings and there quite a bit of enthusiasm was shown. Then the second semester the programs were divided among the four departments represented in Pierian, the Music, Domestic Science, Art, and Normal. Pierian is growing rapidly, and surely it deserves to, for through the constant effort of the girls it has come to be one of the most prominent literary societies at Miami.

Four years ago the Student was changed from a monthly magazine to a weekly college newspaper. Each volume, since that time, has become more and more a true mirror of the activities of the university and a moulder of public opinion. Although no course in newspaper work is offered at Miami, the Student was fortunate in having on the editorial staff this year several experienced newspaper men. They have sought to include in the columns a complete record of the college year together with such news as is interesting to its readers. With the growth of the university it has become impossible for each student to be familiar, through personal contact, with the many activities and happenings at Miami, and it is for this reason that the Student has come into more and more importance as having a definite and responsible part to fill. It is only natural, therefore, that this weekly 170 is being improved from year to year so that it is now credited with being the second best publication of its kind in Ohio. Reviewing the issues of the past year, the athletic write- ups have perhaps been most prominent. A special effort has been made to secure good stories of the foreign games and for many of the games a member of the staff has accompanied the team and has written complete and Vivid accounts which brought to subscribers knowledge of just what the college representatives were doing. Several changes have been made on this weekly. The staff has been increased and for the first time Freshmen have been given a place on it. Editors have been appointed to have charge of the society, athletic, and exchange departments. The itCollege Lifei, page, previously consisting of personals from the various organizations, was changed in its structure so that society events are given an assigned column, and the most important personal items selected and printed under a separate head. 171 Honors and Prizes FRESHMAN HONORS Those Freshmen who receive no grades lower than B in any of their courses are eligible for Freshman honors. The five students from this list who pass the best examination in the Freshman lecture course are considered to be the honor students of the class. The names of these students are read at the annual commemoration chapel service and are recorded in the minutes of the University Senate. SENIOR HONORS Students who maintain a high grade of scholarship through- out their course of study are graduated with honor, cum laude, those who attain an extraordinary high rank in scholarship are graduated magna cum laude. The standard is not fixed, but honors are conferred only on those who make exceptionally high grades, and who show marked ability. Honors are conferred by a formal vote of the University Senate, and are announced at Commencement. PHI BETA KAPPA Phi Beta Kappa is an honor society with high scholarship as the essential qualification for membership. In April of each year, the Miami chapter, through the Phi Beta Kappa members of the faculty of the College of Liberal Arts,e1ects from the J unlor and Senior classes a limited number of students who attain a certain standard of excellence in scholarship. 172 TAU KAPPA ALPHA Tau Kappa Alpha is an honor society with marked ability in oratory and debate as the essential qualification for membership. The winner of the oratorical contest and the members of the inter-collegiate debating teams are eligible for election to membership in Tau Kappa Alpha. PRIZES The Miami chapter of Phi Beta Kappa offers two com- petitive examination prizes of $25 each. One prize of $25 goes to the Freshman obtaining the highest averl'ige in an examination covering the last half of the year s wor The other prize of $25 goes to the Sophomore obtaining the highest average in an examination covering the whole years work.

Three such meetings were held. One was held on the night before the Denison football game. Its object primarily was to stir up enthusiasm for the game. It was as successful as ever and the rooting that resulted from it was all that could be desired. The second was held following the Ohio Wesleyan basket ball game. The Delaware boys were the guests of honor. Although she had just suffered defeat in her own gym, Old Miami proved a royal host to her Visitors and showed them that she could bear defeat in good spirit. Both teams were cheered to a finish. 173 The third meeting was just spontaneous. It was its own reason. Enthusiasm was never higher. A special feature was an exhibition by two local colored gentlemen with educated fists. Local boxers from Prof. Handschinls class furnished two bouts. The refreshments were the best yet, apples, sandwiches, pop corn, cocoa, etc. These meetings, held in the University Commons, are among the bright spots in the careers of the men of Miami. They all come together for an evening with a common purpose etc have a good time and to express the spirit of Old Miami. To this end are the talks, the cheers, the eats, the yells, the music, the songs, and the vaudeville stunts that make up a menls meeting. Next year they will be better and more numerous than ever. 9 QER$ Young mews Qbristian Hssociation In reviewing the work of the Young Menis Christian Association for the past year, we may divide its activities into the religious influence and practical services. Weekly devotional meetings, Bible classes, and modified gospel team- work were the methods of religious infiuence. A meeting was held each Thursday evening discussing some subject of interest to the men of Miami. Bible classes were held in connection with the churches of the Village. The members of the Asso- ciation assisted in conducting revival meetings in a neighboring church. Practical service was rendered the University by the Association in a variety of ways. Receptions were held to give an opportunity for forming new acquaintances. An employment bureau was conducted. A banquet was held in honor of the football team. Kiyoshe Tomizawa, a graduate 174 of Miami, was assisted in his work in Japan. Boy scouts were organized and other practical things accomplished. A new spirit was aroused in the Association work during the past year. The membership was greatly increased. Men became interested in the devotional meetings. Bible study was given greater emphasis. An interest in a practical religious life was awakened. The president and Vice-president 0f the coming year attended the conference at Delaware for new presidents. With the new ideas obtained at this con- ference the work for the coming year has been planned. The object of the Association for the coming year will be to promote religious life among the men of the University, to encourage expression of religious ideas in devotional meetings and Bible classes, and to be of service to every man in the University. g$v .0 7.

With an increase of membership there is a deepening interest in the work, and an enlarging field of activity. Weekly Sunday meetings are held, led by members of the Association, with an occasional faculty speaker. Bible classes are held in the churches. We are also having this year, two series of mission study classes, and several short courses each 176 Band was organized this- year and holds weekly meetings. This is a very important phase of our work. Much inspiring and practical help is gained from con- ferences. This year the Miami Association has been represented by Cabinet girls at the summer conference at Eaglesmere, the Ohio Student Christian Leaderis Conference of Otterbein, Biennial Convention at Richmond, Va., and a Student Volunteer Conference at Denison. pw 1 Girlsl Selmwcrnmcnt OFFICERS Ruth Cameron ...................................

Secretary COUNCIL Zola Zell Winnie Shafer Ruth Duffy Marie Gillespie J ean J ones Kate Husted Myrtle Woodmansee Harriet Gregg Anna Claude The housing of all Miami women in the university halls and cottages this year has made the reorganization of student government necessary. A student council, chosen with the idea of representing as nearly as possible all the interests of the Miami women, forms the sole authority in making and enforcing all regulations. A representative from each of the student activities in which the girls are interested, was selected to serve on the council. The new plan has worked remarkably well. The members of the council have assumed the responsibilities which their offices have required, and the girls as a body, appreciating the new and more advanced ideas in student government, have respected the regulations and observed them faithfully. The regulations which were formulated were only such as were felt to be necessary and not of a restrictive character. Their enforcement was done with a View to liberality and fairness. The girls were divided into two groups, one com- prising the Freshmen, and the other the members of the three upper classes. The Seniors were, however, granted additional privileges. Among the more important rules may be men- tioned the following: 178 Helen Lindsay J osephine Andrews Especial permission must be obtained for all engagements or parties in private homes or fraternity houses and for dancing parties. All girls must sign up for invitations to dinner in the homes of the town, chocolate shop, fraternity houses, engage- ments with men for athletic events, lectures, concerts, and other college entertainments held on the campus. Friday and Saturday evenings are open to callers. No university girls except Seniors may go down town after dinner. Walking with men in the evening is not permissible. Freshmen are not allowed evening dinner engagements, either with university men or out of town men. Freshmen girls may have only two social engagements a week. Freshmen must sign up before going to the library in the evening, stating time of departure and return. Seniors are accorded some privileges not accorded to others. They may have dinner and social engagements during the week, and also are allowed Sunday engagements with university men. 180 QEE$ GM Elub Officers President .................................. R. M.

Burke 182 the University Orchestra The Miami University Orchestra may be described by the following adjectives: sporadic, temperamental, versatile, adapt- able, and a lot more which would come under the head of ttwhat-notsfl The fact is, there is no university orchestra. However, the instrumentalists who persist on their Violins, or flutes, or saxophones, constantly organize and reorganize with a View to giving the best of the old compositions, and the most swinging of the new. A student combination furnishes the music for the monthly varsities, an orchestra is an adjunct to the Glee Club, commencement season is usually accompanied by an open air concert by the assembled musical, and last but not least, every once in a while a few sleepless fiends plan and execute a serenade. And so, with this motley array of bands in mind, it may be truthfully said that Miami has an orchestra, even though it is still in embryo as a finished organization. Some day in the distant future somebody will buy some music tat present unnecessary and unthought ofl, and then some of the musicians will get together for some practice on some of the latest and best, some of the more aspiring will secure some engagements, some dress suits will be secured, some notes will be distributed to the waiting audience for the sum of fifty centsev-and then Miami will have SOME orchestra. Che Uarsitv Band Whoopee! Music. No, mistaken again, its the Varsity land. The call for football candidates last fall was no sooner reverberating over the hills of the Miami Valley, than a second call, one for band volunteers, was sent out. Forty-one men applied for the position for bass drummer; ten were pseudo cornetists; four were alto players providing the instruments were furnished; two were trombonists, while not a solitary wanted to carry the bass horn. And then there was Sam Carr and his diminutive piccolo. Sam had nerve if not a super- abundance of musical ability. The reason the other members marched in public was not because of a possession of nerve but because of the frat pledge requirements making it necessary for them to do so. But the band served its purpose and now that the bass drum is gone, having been burned in the Gibson 183 House fire, the band of 1912 is but a memory. Nevertheless, it is a spirited memory. o o Qliensg 18.1 e hem? mammal Qtluh SOPRANOS Esther Gaskill Kate Husted Wilhelmina Lehman Helen McKay Mary Morrill Dorothy Sloane Helen Stover ALTOS Martha Bell Harriet Gregg Marion Howard Ida Reinhart Marguerite Royal Celia Smith Hazel West SOLOISTS Walter Vaughn Kate Husted I .

The Miami graduates and former students have been able to attain not only the highest stations in the field of politics, but have demonstrated their ability to win renown in the professional and business world as well. An examination of the biographical sketches of the alumni catalog of Miami University, reveals an honor roll of distin- guished sons that will compare favorably with the honor roll of any other institution in the world. Few colleges, if any, can lay claim to as great a percentage of distinguished public men as Miami has among her graduates and former students.

The larger movement in America is represented by itThe Drama League of America. With this larger league tt Ye Merrie Players is affiliated. The local society was represented at the convention of the Drama League last April and the literature, courses of study, and bulletins published by the National Society are on file at the University library. 188 Mrs. Arthur Loren Gates Dorothy Sloane Eleanor Fike George Evans Richard Finley Ernest Grabiel Membership in 11 Ye Merrie Playersii is based on connection with the plays given at the University, and is determined largely by competitive try-outs in the fall term of each year. The fact, however, that a majority of those taking part in the plays each year are Seniors makes it probable that in the near future the qualifications for membership may be broadened. With the enlargement of the membership should come also an increase in the usefulness of the organization. o e hem? winzigear iglap ttTHE SERVANT IN THE HOUSEt, The ttServant in the Housett was one of the most interest- Mr. Montgomery, the central hgure 0f the play, showed ing plays GVGF presented by ttYe Merrle Players 0f Mlaml- marked ability.

Miss Sloane, as Mary, made a strong appeal to her audience. She acted the part of the drainmanls child with grace and simplicity and proved to be a favorite of all. The part of the old Bishop was especially well taken by Mr. Richard Finley. He gave a splendid illustration of the selfish, scheming old man who planned affairs only to the injury of his own character. Miss Fike, as the Vicarls wife, was very strong in her role. She acted her part with a great deal of charm and proved to be most successful. Mr. George Evans, as the English page boy, was very popular. By his clever manner he helped to uphold the humor of the play. THE CHARACTERS Rogers ..................................... George Evans Manson ................................ S. B.

French Plav This year the F rench cast presented itLianglais tel qu,0n 1e parle. It was very cleverly given and proved to be quite a success. A great deal of credit is due to Professors Kuhne and Young who worked hard to make the play the best ever given by the French department. Mr. C. W. Walters as the interpreter, who carried out most of the humorous part of the play, acted his part remarkably well. The role of Hogsen, the father, was well taken by Mr. Robert Taylor. Margaret Ralston as Betty, and Harry Stiles as Julien, were both good in their parts, their acting being natural and their enunciation clear. Ruth'Andrews, as cashier, presented her part well and the character of the bell-boy was well brought out by Milton Wright. Mr. Ernest Vollweiler was successful in his role of com- missioner of police, giving us a true picture of a French policeman. normal Plavs Last year the Sophomore Normal class presented three short plays ttThe Hour Glass? tTCathleen Ni Hoolihant, and TA Pot of Broth? The plays were well presented and were very interesting. ttThe Hour Glass? as the author tells us, is a morality play showing the salvation of a Wise Man through a Fool. Milsls Greensmith, as the Wise Man, played her part remarkably we . Miss Cosler, as the F001, was very good and. brought out the strong contrast between the F001 and the Wise Man. Miss Mann, as an Angel, was good and the parts of the pupils and the Wise ManTs wife were well taken. tTCathleen Ni Hoolihan is a symbolistic play portraysng the fate of Ireland. Miss Nesbitt was especially good in her part of the Old Woman. At one time as an Old Woman, then a young girl, she represented the rise and fall of Ireland. Miss Madden was very good in her part as Peter Gillane, the miser. Misses Royal, McKean and Hughes helped to carry out the idea of the Irish setting. The last play, TA Pot of Broth, was the only comedy and it was for this reason perhaps that it was best received. As a Beggarman, Miss Steele acted her part exceedingly well. Her manner was pleasing and her success was declared from the beginning. Misses Lemon and Young, as a good-hearted old man and a stingy house-wife, were good. The plays were produced under the direction of Mr. Calderwood and a great deal of credit is due to him for having accomplished so much. Dramatis Personae HOUR GLASS A Wise Man ......................

Anderson Music by Parkeris Orchestra of Columbus, Ohio. It seemed as though the Prom star had this year reached its zenith. The class of 1914 capped the climax when it gave its Junior promenade. Nothing but praise and expressions of satisfaction were heard on all sides. The biggest and grandest event of the whole social season at Miami was a great success from all possible View points-financial as well as social. The Juniors realized what a precedent had been set by former Proms, but nothing daunted, they set to work to make their Prom the best yet. Did they succeed? Well, if the expressed admiration and satisfaction of the guests is any criterion, they sure did. They set a standard that the future classes will do well to approach, let alone surpass. It was distinctly a Junior Prom. Practically all of the decorations were made and put in place by members of the class. Much credit is due to the efficiency of the committee and also to the willing assistance rendered by the other members of the class. Pat Huston, an ex-Miami man, supervised the decorating which was planned by Miss Mary Eck, a Miami girl. And what a change was wrought in the old gym! Surely nothing less than a magic hand could have accomplished such wonders. On entering, the guests found themselves in a beautiful English garden house. It was a scene of almost awe-inspiring splendor, where staid divinity and rustic simplicity united in conveying an impression that could not readily be forgotten. The steel girders of the loft were hidden by white muslin, arranged in such a way to look as if the roof rested on immense square beams. The entire superstructure appeared to be supported by huge snowy pillars. The railing of the running track formed the sides of the house and was entirely screened with white and covered with green Vines. The bare walls 198 of the gym were hidden by a fence of lattice work from behind which peeped hundreds of many colored hollyhocks. A pro- fusion of green vines coiled and trailed everywhere. Back of the lattice work were the narrow walks and seats for the dancers. There were four arches or hooked gateways supported by large round columns of white. A small doorway led into the cozy retreats at each of the four corners. Under the canopied archways at the ends polite attendants served punch and ices from great bowls. In the alcove, back of the gateway, directly opposite the main entrance were the card tables. On the running track, sequestered nooks were conveniently fixed up with sofa pillows, whither the romantic couples were wont to betake themselves for a quiet little tete-a-tete. The many old fashioned square colored lanterns hung from the rafters diffused a soft hazy profusion of light, in perfect harmony with the setting. An extension had been built out from the running track at one corner, and from here the delightful strains of the two- step floated down to the dancers below. The Promenade began at 9 oiclock with 122 couples in line. After the formation of the M, soft leather programs in gray and goldathe class colorse-were given out. The grand march wound up in a waltz. After sixteen numbers the dancers paused for a half hours intermission during which time refreshments were served. The program scheduled twenty-eight dances, and not a single one of them was omitted. The dancing continued on into the early hours of the morning. As the hands of the clock pointed to the hour of three, the last strains of 1Good Night Dear died away and Miamiis Fifth Annual Prom- Miamils greatest Promewas over. um:- I ..4. 1 ' u; I u ... u PROM COMMITTEE 2C0 THE VARSITY SOCIAL CLUB Herbert Pine,. . . . . . , . t , , . t , . . . . . . .

German songs are sung and members present really feel as though they were in Germany.

In some of the past years, with promising material at the opening of the season, the team met with only a fair success. This year the squad, of whom little was expected, sprang a big surprise and played some great football. The year brought forth some of the best demonstrations of the famed Miami fighting spirit that have ever been seen. To the Miami spirit, to Coach Donnelly and to Assistant Coach Young is due the credit for this development of a good team from much new mate- rial. Captain Russel Baker made an excellent leader for the squad. The team, though exceptionally light, made up in fight what they lacked in weight. The spectacle on the Lexington held, when the little Miami team out-fought and defeated Kentucky, was one that never will be forgotten by the thousands of people that crowded the field. WILMINGTON - The season opened as usual with W'ilmington on September 28th. The contest was a typical opening game. There was not much difference in weight between the teams, but superior coaching and speed told from the first, and Miami had no trouble in scoring five touchdowns. Wilmington was powerless before the Miami line. WITTENBERG a On the following Saturday Miami played a scoreless tie at Springfield with the best team that Wittenberg ever put on the field. Miami went on the field a little over-confident and the Springfield boys put up a much more aggressive game than usual. Largely through the individual work of quarter-back Shaefer, the home team managed to hold Miami to a tie. The game was probably the best ever seen in Springfield. KENTUCKY a The greatest and scrappiest game of football ever seen in Kentucky was the Miami Victory over the WVildcats in Lexington. There was probably not a man in the State who would have taken a one-to-two bet on Miamils chance of winning. The Freshmen class of Kentucky hauled the Miami team through Lexington on a float, and this coupled with the reputed bitter rivalry between the teams, brought out an immense crowd to the Kentucky field. Kentucky started with a rush and put the ball over for a touchdown in the first few minutes. Miami came back admirably and with the terrific line bucks of Baker tore her way across the field for a touchdown that tied the score. The score was a tie at the end of the first half. Kersting was forced to retire with a sprained ankle and, with two subs in the back field Miamils chances looked small. Early in the second half Kentucky scored a safety. The Miami team came back fighting like tigers. The rooting grew hysterical. As the teams fought, darkness was falling upon the field and the moon came out. The little red team forced the Wildcats back against their goal where Keim blocked a kick and Carr fell on the ball for a touchdown, making the score thirteen to eight in Miami's favor. In the last ten minutes, with the band playing ffMy Old Kentucky Home, and with the southerners fighting the fight of their lives, Old Miami fought her big rivals to a standstill. ST. LOUIS - With Baker out of the game with an injured arm and Reed still unable to go in, Coach Donnelly had no hope of winning from St. Louis. Miamils defensive work on open playing was poor and the westerners ran up thirty-five points. The Miami line, although outweighed thirty pounds to the man, played St. Louis even, and the center of the line even out-played its husky opponents at times. In spite of the difference in the score, it was seen that had Miami been at her best St. Louis would have had her hands full to win. Prugh distinguished himself in this contest. Through his running, Miami made six first downs in the last quarter. DE PAUW e Over-confidence was a factor in preventing another victory at DePauw. With Baker and Reed back in the game it looked as though Miami would line up strong against her Indiana rivals. But Baker was in poor shape after his long lay-off and Reed received an injury to his head in the first half that left him in a dazed condition throughout the game. Miami scored a touchdown early in the game and was leading when the second half opened. The Hoosiers came back in the second period, however, and scored twenty-three points on the crippled Miami team. OHIO e Miami had little trouble in defeating the husky Ohio Univer- sity team, 18 to 6. An injury to Baker and the crippled condition of the team kept the score down somewhat. Baker made two of the prettiest passes ever seen in this section of the state. On the first, he heaved the ball at least forty yards to Keim for a touchdown. A little later he passed another of the same kind to Keim, who was downed on the five-yard line. Baker played a great game, leaving on account of serious injuries, but going in again in the last quarter when he was seriously injured. DENISON e The Denison game was one of the best seen in Oxford in a long time. Twice in the first quarter Miami bucked the ball the length of the field only to lose on a fumble. Denison finally scored on a forward pass to their center on a line shift play. Miami came near scoring several times on straight football but Denison was strong under her own goal posts. Denison kicked two goals from the field making the score 14 to O in her favor. CINCINNATI ! Miami killed the Cincinnati hoodoo but was tied after getting a lead of 14 to 0 in the first quarter of a heart-breaking contest. A record-breaking crowd saw Miami start with a rush and overwhelm Cincy. One of Bakeris famous passes made the first touchdown. A few minutes later, Reed picked up a fumble and ran thirty-five yards for another. At this point the team was weakened by an injury to Keim, who was forced to withdraw. Cincinnati scored once in the second and once in the third quarter on straight football. Miami again took the lead by scoring on a forward pass, Baker to Carr. Cincinnati tied one minute before the end of the game, by the phenomenal line bucking of Hench. o Cc?

His watchword from first to last was F IGHT. And a fighting team was the result. When strength and ability could do no more, fight carried them further. This was the case at Kentucky. Donnelly,s methods are of the famous Foster kind. He can drive his men like slaves to the goal of Condition, and still win the friendship of every one of them. And in that last minute before the shriek 0f the whistle he can say those words that send every man into the game to give his neck for Old Miami. When he returns next year he will find Miami and Oxford back of him to the last individual. And if Miami does not have the best team in her history it will not be Donnellyis fault. Hssistam Qoacb Young Prof. A. E. Young has done more for athletics at Miami than any other man. His name has been so connected with Miami football that articles in his praise in the student pub- lication have become trite. Not satisfied with developing the material at hand he has gone out and secured better material. This years Freshman team, the hope of the future, was the result of his efforts, and it is safe to predict that of next years class a goodly portion Will be football men who chose Miami to play under Wesleyanis greatest end. 210 OPm 9me w tLMING TON M scum goes around and- 211 M IO m. through Wu: hue W L'M ING'TON WALLACE PRUGH A fast, scrappy, heady quarter; equally good on offense or defense.

It seems that Coach Donnellyls ambition to have two sets of back iield men and two pairs of ends will be realized this year. For several reasons past lack of good utility men has been Miamils great weakness. It is difficult to use names without omitting some that deserve mention. There were about thirty men on the squad regularly and most of them trained faithfully and played some fine football. Probably the showing of Pierce, Butterfield and Pults should be specially mentioned. The two former men had some football experience before entering college. The latter played a great game in the back field for a first year man and with coaching should develop wonder- fully. Rogers was a fast, husky tackle and looks good for next year. Landry, McGinnis, Ross, Owens, Herbert, Brown, Wack and others should be heard from in the future. The team showed its mettle by giving the Varsity all they could handle many times in scrimmage practice. ;.'r l ' 'v' s id, 'x- l ,'T' XI. .17 . 13:43.; M, . bx . r C Hr 9 .' 3' o lneli. T 0 CC? Kismg' 3mm 19231135 $tbehule The schedule for next year is one of the best Miami has had in recent years. All of the games are with Ohio teams. All of these teams are in the Ohio Conference except Wilmington. A clean slate would probably mean the state championship; and a clean slate is what Miami is looking forward to. The back field should be the speediest, and the line the heaviest, that Miami has ever had. From all appearances the much desired extra set of good backs and ends will be available. The first two games Will be easy. Wittenberg will probably have a weaker team than that Which tied Miami last year, while Miami Will be far stronger. In the past Miami has usually been at her best about the time of the third game. This Will be at Oberlin next year and it is safe to predict that it will be a great battle. Three years ago Miami defeated Oberlin in a game that neither college Will ever forget. This will be the first meeting between the teams since that game. After the Oberlin game comes an open date and the team should be in good shape for Denison. itRevenge for the defeat of last year? will be the slogan. The same slogan will apply to Ohio Wesleyan. Ohio University Will be easy. In 1911 Miami out played Reserve in a game that resulted in a tie. The Cleveland boys will know what to expect and will not suffer from over-confidence on Nov. 15. After this hard game will come a two weeks rest in preparation for Cincinnati. The famous llCincy Hoodoo was broken last year. Next year it will be demolished.

The material was not all that could be expected, but the results obtained were good. Hoskins, trainer for the Cincinnati Reds, was the coach. Regular practice began some time before Christmas, and the team was in shape early in the season. The up-state teams played were ltout-of-our-classli and although Miami played a hard, scrappy game, some of the scores would not indicate the fact. Hoskins left for baseball work the latter part of February, and itJimmy Young finished the season in his place, with much credit. The season was also a financial success. The first game was played with Ohio Wesleyan at Oxford on January 18. Miami lost by the score of 34 to 13. The six hundred and fifty spectators enjoyed a very clean game. No fouls were called on Miami and only five on Wesleyan. With the exception of the swift team work of the Delaware boys the game was listless. Miami handled the ball poorly. Ohio Wesleyan presented practically the same line-up that won the state championship last year. Their game was almost flawless. Their Christmas training trip had perfected their team work. On the Saturday preceding prom week Miami defeated Wittenberg at Oxford by the score of 40 to 25. The Visitors were out-classed and Miami showed fine form. The pass work of the Lutherans was good but they seldom got near enough to the basket to shoot. The shooting of Kersting was a feature. 221 The team fittingly celebrated the prom by defeating Cincinnati 42 to 26. The usual big crowd enjoyed this game and enthusiasm was higher than ever. Pruden and Kersting both starred at shooting. Stewart played a fine game for the Visitors. The up-state trip was a failure. Miami lost to Wooster, Denison, and Wesleyan. The trip was a fatiguing one and left the team in poor shape. In each case Miami faced a better team and was not at her best. On February 15th, Denison defeated Miami by the score of 53 to 19. A better exhibition of basket-ball than that put up by the Denison team was never seen here. Every man was a star and they played together. Their game was perfect. Black and Jones were the biggest point winners for Ehekvisitors, while Kersting played a fine game and caged five as ets. In the last game on the home floor, Miami beat Kenyon 38 to 10. Kenyon did not even score until five minutes had been played in the second half and were never in the game. MiamYs defense was perfect. Pruden caged nine baskets and the whole team played good ball. On the Southern trip the team played good ball. Kentucky State came out on top of a 24 to 16 score; Miami beat George- town 34 to 16; and lost to Central 38 to 30. The shooting of Pruden and Kersting featured. Miami lost to Cincinnati in the last game by the score of 44 to 20. The game was rough and brilliant in spots. Pruden and Gooseman were the stars. 9 QOQR$ m mmp' uyv .wm v a 2bthu?

The courts were kept in good shape and there was continued interest throughout the season. Kenyon and Butler played here; Miami played at Indiana State and went to the Conference at Oberlin. The Tennis Association, under the Athletic Association, had charge of the tournaments and the care of the courts. The ofhcers of the Association are Ashton, president; H. Rosencrans, Vice- president; Kraus, secretary and treasurer. The local tournament aroused some lively competition. Ashton won the singles and a leg on the Walter Tobey bowl. H. Rosencrans was runner-up. Ashton and H. Rosencrans defeated Kraus and G. Rosencrans for the doubles title. Ashton defeated H. Rosencrans: 7-5; 6-3; 6-2. H. Rosencrans and Ashton defeated G. Rosencrans and Kraus: 6-4; 6-3; 6-2. The Varsity team was composed of H. and G. Rosencrans, and Ashton. KENYON AT MIAMI Kenyon, having lost the redoubtable Marty, was ttdoped out for a defeat, but proved much steadier than Miami, and carried off the upper side of the score. H. Rosencrans won over J enkins of Kenyon, 6-2; 6-4. Ashton, badly out of form, 10st to Man- chester, 6-3; 9-7. In doubles, Jenkins and Manchester defeated Ashton and Rosencrans in three hard fought sets: 10-8; 6-4; 6-4. CONFERENCE AT OBERLIN Miami took part in the Conference Meet at Oberlin, May 30, 31 and June 1. All the Conference teams of Ohio were represented. In singles, Ashton was defeated in the first round by Henderson 0f Oberlin: 4-6; 6-4; 6-2. Rosencrans defeated Phelps of Wooster, 6-0; 6-3; but he was defeated by Manchester of Kenyon, 9-7; 6-3, in hard fought sets. In the doubles Miami defeated Wooster: 6-0; 6-3, Reserve: 6-4; 6-2; and lost in the final round to Kenyon in an exceedingly close match: 6-2; 6-4; 4-6; 8-6. Miami then defeated Wesleyan, winners of the consolation by the close score of 6-4; 1-6; 6-1; 4-6; 6-4, taking second place in the tournament. Manchester of Kenyon defeated Henderson 0f Oberlin for the title in singles. At a meeting of the Conference teams, the following officers of the O. L. T. A. were elected: Manchester, Kenyon, president; Ashton, Miami, Vice-president; Small, Reserve, secretary-treasurer. It was decided to hold the next tournament at Kenyon. Manchester has since left college, the presidency of the organization falling to Ashton. INDIANA STATE-June 5th, Miami played Indiana State at Bloomington. G. Rosencrans was defeated by Stoddard. Ashton defeated Creman, 9-7; 6-2. In doubles, Ashton and H. Rosencrans defeated Creman and Stoddard, 8-6; 6-0; 6-4. BUTLER-During Commencement week, Miami played Butler 0n the Miami courts. Brown defeated Ashton, 0-6; 9-7; 7-5. H. Rosencrans defeated Brown, 7-5; 6-4. Baker defeated H. Rosencrans, 6-2; 6-1. Baker defeated Ashton, 6-4; 3-6; 6-4. Ashton and H. Rosencrans defeated Baker and Brown, 10-8; 6-4; 6-1. 223 Eb: Wrath Track at Miami was not as successful in 1912'as it has been for the past several years. This was due partly to bad weather and injuries and partly to the carelessness of some of the men who were kept off the team by conditions. Some of the eligible competitors did not train as they should have done. Clarkls weak insteps and ankles kept him out of the running all spring. Miamfs showing in all of the meets that she entered was good. There was no lack of ability in college. Otterbein was defeated by a score of 73 to 36. The five men who entered the Cincinnati Gym. meet made an excellent showing and the same five performed well at the Big Six meet at Columbus. Clark would probably have represented America at the Olympic games at Stockholm had his weak insteps not kept him out of the preliminary try-outs. 225 OTTERBEIN Miami opened her track season on May 4, by defeating Otterbein in a dual meet. The score was 73 to 36. The Miami team was badly weakened by the absence of several men, but showed up much better than was expected. Keim starred, winning both hurdles and the 100 yd. dash. Of the twelve events, Miami won eight firsts and tied one first. BIG SIX Miami had but five men entered in the Big Six meet at Columbus on May 24. Keim, Kersting, Wolf, Bowen, and Sollars wore the big red Mls which have earned so much respect in Columbus. Keim took third place in the 100 yd. dash and second in the 220, losing the latter race to Copeland of State in 22 2-5 seconds. Keim had just won his preliminary heat in 22 1-5 seconds. Sollars took fourth place in the pole vault. Q C63m$ ham wins Hrs EMT mike. 220 Mle 4;; THE. E5161 5IKMEET The. 95$ 91; the. 100 wand X ten 5w when x Saw W0? 5K3 rQeA M ;n VkE.

Silver cups were awarded for first place instead of g e e . , medals. ; em .- , 4 In the 220 yd. dash, Keim won first place, establishing the new local record at Miami and Cincinnati 0f 22 seconds flat. Another local record was made by Keim in the 220 yd. low hurdles, when he won this event in 26 seconds. Kersting took third in the 100 yd. dash. In the mile handicap Wolf surprised the Cincinnati athletes by taking first place. The first man to start had 10 yds. handicap. Wolf had 55 yds., but won easily with a lead of 70 yds. in 4:41. Sollars took third place in the pole vault. 227 'u' 'T-he WB'QO roundv The. diamond I Baseball Earlhal-A I 1 Baseball was perhaps the most successful of athletic sports at Miami during the year 1911-12. And this in spite of the fact that baseball had not been played at Miami for three years. Not much was expected of the team by the student body or even by the coach; so four Victories out of six games came as a complete surprise. The strongest teams on the schedule were defeated. The Kenyon and Wittenberg teams, each of which won from Miami by one run, would have been easily defeated a little later in the season. The event of the season was Miamfs defeat of Cincinnati University in a hotly contested game on Decoration Day. The strong Earlham team was also defeated in a snappy eleven- inning contest. All of the games were played at home, and, as every one of them except that with Wilmington was won or lost by one point, there was no lack of interest or good rooting. 229 ' Wl lml ngl'oh . H uaeg-Lu-wrzim . . .',7 .y..;v Too much cannot be said in praise of Coach ltJimmy Young for the successful baseball season. Credit is also due to men like Webster, Pixler, Grabiel and other lovers of the game who worked long and earnestly to have baseball re-es- tablished here. Every man on the team played good ball and worked hard. Grabiel pitched good, steady ball throughout the season. llDan Websteris fine work behind the bat contributed largely to the seasons success. The batting and all-round work of tiJim Clark was a feature. Levering played an exceptionally good game at first. Prugh on second and Pixler at short performed consistently all season, the latter successfully relieving Grabiel in the box in the Earlham game. Gee handled the ball well in left field and featured with his throwing. He batted well. Kelly and Fox both batted and fielded well. Roudebush played good ball in the out-field. o QEW?

' urday the strong Earlham .g' 3X34Q team was defeated by a score y if y of 9 to 8 in eleven innings. fry T WV ' By a batting rally in the third inning Miami scored six runs, taking what looked like a safe lead. But the Quakers came back strongly in the sixth and seventh, tying the score. In the eleventh, Clark hit towards third and stole second. Webster hit to first, Clark taking third. Clark then scored on GeeTs grounder to short. Clark. Webster, and Roudebush were the heavy hitters. The Miami team did not have a single error during the Earlham batting rallies. Pixler relieved Grabiel in the sixth inning and pitched fine ball. WILMINGTON Flushed with their two recent victories, the Miami team went after Wilmington from the first and the plucky defenders of the green and white never had a chance. The whole team batted like fiends and stopped everything in the field. Grabiel was too much for the Wilmington boys, who managed to score only three while Miami was rolling up thirteen runs. ALUMNI The alumni team was headed by Charles Welliver. Chas. brought with him a star semi-pro. shortstop and a pitcher of American association fame from Indianapolis, who were not alumni. Varsity began by taking a big lead, but the old boys showed the good old Miami spirit by coming back and making the undergrads fight some to win by a score of 7 to 6. 230 Miami lost her opening game to Kenyon on May 3, by the score of 7 to 6. An extra inning was needed to decide the victory. The Kenyon team was only a fair one, but Miami showed her lack of experience by nervousness and poor head-work at critical moments. Gee had two two-baggers and brought the crowd to their feet by a long throw from left which cut off a score. Pixler batted well. On the whole, the game was satisfactory for the first in three years. The pitching of Miller of Wittenberg defeated Miami on May 9. The Lutherans had a ttone mani' team. MiamYs workin the field was much improved and Grabiel pitched good ball, but inability to hit Miller tells the story. The catchlng of Webster was a feature. ttJim Clark broke into the game and made good in the out-field. Pixler Old Miami celebrated the 30th by winning her first and biggest victory of the season. The score of 4 to 3 tells the story. of a close and exciting contest with a thrill in every inning. The Miami team played great ball throughout. Grablel pltched a good steady game and got two clean hits. Webster starred behind the bat. Clark pulled off three circus stunts at third, and Fox made a great running catch between center and right. The team showed that it had struck its stride and caused the fans to regret that there were not four or five more hard games on the schedule.

About sixty men participated in the meet, representing the following high schools: Walnut Hills and Woodward, 0f Cin- cinnati, Madisonville, Steele of Dayton, Washington Court House, College Corner, Covington, Ky., Hartwell, and McGuii'ey High of Oxford. . A good crowd attended the meet and showed much enthusiasm. The prizes offered were gold, silver, and bronze medals for first, second, and third places respectively. A banner was given to the school winning the greatest number of points. Walnut Hills won first place and the banner with 58 points; Steele was second with 24; Washington C. H. third, with 17; Covington and College Corner tied for fourth, with 13 each; Madisonville fifth, with 9; Woodward sixth, with 4; McGuffey and Hartwell, 1 point each.

Shideler and C. D. Boyd offered a fine silver cup to the organization making the most points in the Cross Country Race. The University offered gold, silver, and bronze medals to the individuals who finished first, second, and third in the number of points. Four races were run. The course this year was out past the Western t0 the cemetery entrance and return, a distance of three miles. The first fifteen men to finish in each race made points; thus the first man getting fifteen points, the second fourteen and so on down, the fifteenth making one point. The Phrenocons won the cup by a margin of 72 points over their nearest competitor. Robert Edmiston won the gold medal, Howard Ross won the silver medal, and Carl iogart won the bronze medal. This is notable in that all three men are F reshmen.

By means of this League more men were gotten out to participate in Athletics than ever before in the history of the institution. Early in the spring representatives from each organization met and elected M. J ohn MeCaslin, President, and W. R. Engel, Vice-President of the League. A schedule was made out in which each team played every other team one game. The University offered a silver cup to the team finishing with the best per cent. The Phi Alpha Psi Fraternity won the cup and it now graces theii' parlors. Organized fraternity baseball, if kept up, promises to be of great service to Varsity baseball. New material is con- stantly being developed and new stars discovered. Thus Inter-Frat ball promises to be a constant feeder t0 Varsity ball. Besides this, interest is amused and maintained among practically all the students, which shows itself so intensely when a Varsity game is played.

Qrino .Eoitoris giament Now Editor, I did deny you no copy; But I remember when the write-ups were done- When I was weary and faint, Exhausted and grumpy, leaning upon my penb There came a certain fellow, neat and trimly dressed. His chin, new reaped, shone like a stubble field To bare feet. He was perfumed like Lehenbauer, And twixt his finger and his thumb He held a Luxury, which ever and anon He gave his mouth and took away again; Who therewith being angered when it next returned Refused to pull. And still he laughed and talked. And as I bore the sheets away, He called me untaught, unmannerly To bring such stuff betwixt his eyes and the table. With many holiday and lady terms, He questioned me; amongst the rest He asked about the J unior write-ups.

Strangling Statistics The water wasted during the running season of the fountain would float six lGl battleships the size of the Texas and one pair of J ohn Finleyls shoes. It has been calculated that the winner of both cross country runs has run six miles during the tWO races; figuring on the basis of a three mile course. The number of rabbits killed this fall about Oxford by students alone, totals up to the startling number of three,-four, counting the one that McMicken found dead.

During the last three yearse,10, 111, and l12-the March varsities have been held during the month of March. The Wildmen, since organizing four months ago, have chewed 100 packages of Honest-fifteen were paid for. 2Red Hedges, since his debut into iipooldom, claims to have won eleven games out of 428; he tied three of these. The amount of work done by the squad of illeft-overs 245 during spring vacation would not quite compare with the work done by Sid Cheeks during his career at Miami. The number of cuss words issued in the Recensio office by the gentlemen of the staff of 1913 would fill about three volumes. The amount of time spent by Wallace Roudebush in trying to show the various managers of student activities how to save twelve cents five mills would amount to $12,062.43 computed from his present salary. The number of words sorrowfully used on Western girls in regretting the no-dance rules, would serve an Oxford Herald editor for 13 obituary notices. 13 girls from the Liberal Arts, 1 from the N ormal College, comprised the editorial staff for the Girls Issue of the Student.

He stuck to the bunch like a rose in the bush and we appreciate this greatly. It is probable that the single immediate cause of the disease will never be known. But when he fell out of the third story window in the south dorm, it is probable that he received exterior and interior injuries, which acting together, helped to snap the thread of life.
