M. LAWRENCE Metallurgist and Acting Superintendent The laboratories of the Mississippi Valley Experiment Station of the U. S. Bureau of Mines are maintained on the campus, I he activities of this station are o! a general character, covering the lead and tine fields of the Mississippi Valley and dealing with problems of a mining, ore dressing, or metallurgical nature which arise in the lead and zinc industries, the solution of which problems would tend to increase efficiency, encourage economic development and prevent waste in the territory served by this station. THE STATE MINING EXPERIMENT STATION MARTIN H. THORN BER R Y B.S., Mct.E. Associate Professor of Metallurgical Research in Charge of Station It is the object of the station to conduct such original researches or to verify such experiments as relate to the properties anti uses of mineral products; to investigate the engineering problems connected with the mineral industry, the economic methods of mining and the preparation of mineral products, the methods ot preventing waste of the mineral resources and the methods of preventing accidents in mines, mills, and smelters; to assist in improving the conditions surrounding the labor in mines, mills, and smelters; and such other researches or experiments as bear directly upon the application of mining and metallurgical engineering to the mineral industry of the Stare of Missouri. The new building which occupies a space of about llf)xl25 feet between Parker Hall and J sickling Gymnasium is the Mississippi Valley Experiment Station of the United States Bureau of Mines. The plan of the building is H shaped, making it essentially in two parts connected by a passageway. The front wing is occupied by the offices and fine research laboratories of the Bureau of Mines on the ground floor, by rhe Mining Department of The School of Mines on the top floor, and the offices and laboratories of the State Experiment Station in the semi-basement. Most of the rear w ing is occupied by a laboratory 28x80 feet on the ground floor and extending the full height of the rear wing. The equipment is complete with heavy machinery and apparatus for large scale experimental work. It includes a ten-ton Milwaukee floor operated traveling crane. In rhe north end of the rear wing are the electrolytic and the electro- thermic laboratories. In the semi-basement is the rock drill testing laboratory. At the south end is the crusher room, and in the basement below that is the cement testing laboratory of the C. E. depart- ment. MISSOURI BUREAU OF GEOLOGY AND MINES STATE GEOLOGIST H. A. BUEHLER The Missouri Bureau of Geology and Mines— or The Missouri Geological Survey, as it is more commonly known — has its headquarters at Kolia, and occupies the Roll a Building on the School campus. The Geological Survey has at the present time a library of approximately five thousand volumes and pamphlets on geological and allied subjects, and a museum of seven thousand specimens of clay, coal, barite, lead and zinc ore, iron ore, and other mine and quarry products of Missouri. The Geological Survey is organized principally to aid in the development of the mineral resources of Missouri. Information concerning these resources is gathered through observations in the field by members of the staff. Geologic and topographic maps are prepared of different parts of the State and the various formations are accurately described in accompanying reports. The relation of geology to the ore deposits is also worked out and detailed reports published concerning such investigations. The Bureau, in co-operation with the United States Geological Survey, also maintains a water resource branch tor the investigation of water powers and flood prevention.

The rushing roar of rivers brings Hoods for him to choke and grapple, No petty butterfly, however pretty, Crosses the purpose His singing voice thru canyons rings Vibrant, ecstatic as a dynamo. Against great mystic forces Are his sinews, thews, and muscles Tightened, in silence; I he implacable defiance of mountain silence Moulding form, he is molded; Utilizing greatness, he is made great. Static thought changes state, Becomes dynamic. His dreams beat like hammers On the red hot plan that rests Upon the anvil of his mind. + His dreams presage what is to be, Down yonder, in the canyon. Juniors Pa$t Forty-tkttt V ' mO.C f VTfV- rvl|V fy| J V ' ?5fcV J U NIC) RS Unquestionably, the Junior year at M.S.M. is most doubtful period of the four years grind. After lying around the previous year the student faces the delightful task of conquering Prof. Frames 1 E.E. course and to accept without an argument the courses of the chosen profession. The idea that a Junior is hut one year away from R.O.s Power Plants is enough to kill the joy of the year. The professional fraternities and scholastic societies begin to work on the third-year men and this only lends more hardships for the time being. I hen last, but not least, is the putting on of St. Pat’s. Nith everything else taken into consideration, this is the most important part of the daily work of a Junior. This celebration concerns the whole school and many outsiders. If the event is put on in real style the Juniors have made their reputation and so it is a hard life after all [he class of 28 had the surpreme honor of starting the wearing of sus- penders by freshmen. I his fact is not of much Importance, except that they must have done a good job because the classes of the following years are still trying to out-do their predecessors. The St. I at s celebration was great and shows that the class of 28 are worthy of their name as Juniors. Credit must be given the committees in charge of the decorating of the gymnasium and the music. The gymnasium was done up in a very clever fashion while the music was probably the best ever heard at this institution. We all hope the Class of ’28 carry their good name thru the year and become diligent seniors in 1928. CLASS OFFICERS G. T. MlCrqrev, President L F. Sewell, Vice-President S. A. Lynch, Secretary P.

Young Sophomores PaRf Forty-seven SOPHOMORES CLASS OF ’29 This old world has traveled all the way around Old Sol nearly twice since the class of 29 began making history at Having survived the critical and gruesome days of a freshman with only a few casualties; we took up the more pleasant duties of the conscientious sophomore And, as every present freshman will tell you, we have pursued and executed our duty with unusual diligence. The annual class fracas was a huge success; thanks to the shanghai squad, whose excellent work made the victory possible The evening follow- ing the fight we entertained the bewildered and mutilated feeshmen in the gym and found that quite a few of them were really human. In the football game with the frosh, fate favored them with victory. But this hard fought battle only served to increase our vigilance for suspender- less freshmen Aside from the foregoing diversions, 11 precision of measurements ' and the art of hand-shaking” completed our “college curriculum”; and we hope you will hear much more from us next year and the next.

Old students returned reluctantly, but with a desire to conquer one more year. With them, came some hundred odd so called freshmen. It did not take long for the Sophs and the unorganized Freshmen class to come to blows on the first Monday of school, after a two day sojourn in the Ozarks. Alter the fight and circus peace reigned about town. Football began to be the discussed topic of the day. Several of the fresh man class distin- guished themselves. Among these are “Sharhe” Ray and I.acy, who made their M s. Dover, Dehoe and Kirkpatrick made the squad, and if not for hard luck DeFoe would have probably made his letter. Aftei football season the Freshman-Sophomore game was held, and the Freshman squad led by Dover conquered the Sophomores, by a score of ‘ to 6, and as a result green caps were abolished. Toward the middle of the second semester the class became socially inclined, and the Freshmen Hop was given the 26th of February. From the opinion of the school, a grand time was had by all. At the time of this writing track season is yet to come and nothing can be said definitely. From the looks of prospects the track team will be made up with quite a few Freshmen showing their ability.

R. Lee — Fullback. The Miner ' 26 Captain proved to be a true leader lor his teammates. His line-smashing anti tackling in the secondary defense have been a shining light in Miner victories for the past three years. Captain-Elect M. C. Ledford — Halfback. “Monty” was the fastest man carrying the pigskin for the Golden Wave last season. Ability as a leader aided by passing, punting, and open field running versatileness speak for his worth as ' 27 Captain. H. IX Thomas — Halfback Tommy com- pleted four years of varsity grid ironing last fall. This 160-pound halfback was the most elusive ball carrier on the McCollum eleven. In addition, “Twidge was a fighter every second till the final gun. J. O. Lemon— Halfback Toting the ball thru the line or off tackle smashes, “Jimmy” gave Miner opponents lots of worry. An eighty-five yard dash for a touchdown from scrimmage last fall is an example of Ids yardage gaining for the past three seasons. Lnoch V o u no — Center. Accurate passes are the main cog in the present day direct passing football machines. “Skipper” fulfilled this requirement very handily besides his fine work defensively. Young is a three year le Herman. O. D. Neidermever— Tackle Tall and well proportioned, Neidermeyer took advantage of his 195-pound physique in breaking thru opposing lines and opening paths for the Mc- Collum backfiekl. “Red will be present next year to bolster the ' 27 dented warriors.

P Berry — -Quarterback, After an absence of a year, Berry returned to bit the quarterback berth- “Art” was especially adept at tossing the pigskin into the arms of Miner wingman. Berry qualified as a heady field tactician thru- out the season to climax his proof in the final game. H. C. Bo lon — -Tackle, As a freshman, Rolon won a regular position and his playing last fall showed even greater improvemnt. This left tackle used his 190-pounds to good advantage, being fast and shifty despite his weight G, C. Johnson — Tackle, George had hard luck thruout the past season because of a shoulder injury but he played good football when he was in the game Johnson ' s stalwart play for three seasons has been a rampart in the Miner line. M« A Sharp — End, The lightest man on the varsity, Sharp ' s grit and alert pass receiving earned him a letter for the ' 26 season He made his presence known to opponents regard- less of physical handicap. K. A Allebach — End. On numerous occasions when Berry ' s short passes went into a crowd, Allebach emerged with the pig- skin tucked under bis arm. Coupled with his adept ness at breaking up end runs, Karl was a real factor in the Golden Wave ' s forward walk C F Herbert — Guard. Undaunted by his two previous failures, Herbert came to the fore as a guard to win the coveted “M.

His faculty for diagnos- ing enemy tactics was more than helpful. E. M. Ray— End.

Ray is a very likely satellite for McCollum’s future elevens. S, LX Hodgdon — End. For three long fall seasons Sammy” toiled with the scrubs but the ’26 season saw him in a varsity place. Grabbing passes was his long suit netting length ly gains time and again. Persistence is the epitome of Hodgdon ’s football play. Page Sixiy-tzvo Football THE 1926 FOOTBALL SEASON The results on record for the Miners 1926 football season show five victories and three defeats. Washington U., St. Louis U., and Arkansas Tech, turned in the only defeats chalked against the McCollum clan during the past season and only the two point margin of a safety gave St. Louis a victory. This points to the fact that the 1926 season of the fall sport ranks with the best performances of M.S.M. elevens in a number of years. The Miners ’26 eleven opened the season on slippery, muddy gridiron at Jackling Field opposing the McKendree College warriors from Lebanon, Illinois. Despite the uneven footing the Golden Wave rolled up six touch- downs and Captain Lee added five extra points to triumph 41 to 13. Lemon scored three touchdowns, one on a forty yard sprint across the striped field across the visitors goal line. The McKendreeites were held to a mere twenty- two yards total yardage gained in scrimmage. A pass and a recovered fumble gave the losers their only points of the sixty minutes of play. Off- tackle plays and straight football were the Miners tactics that gave the successful results. The M.S.M. eleven met the Washington University Bears in their annual fracas at Francis field in the second game of the year. The St. Louisans showed unexpected strength and succeeded in gaining a 25 to 2 victory. Ledford got loose for a twenty-five yard sprint in the third quarter placing the ball on the Bears twenty yard line and Thomas’ thirty yard gain again put the Miners in striking distance of the goal but the final drive was lacking. The ability of the Washington U. linemen to outcharge the Miner linemen providing openings for their fleet backfield was the deciding factor in the Bears triumph. The golden-jerseyed McCollum eleven started the Homecoming game with Arkansas Tech, by carrying the pigskin sixty yards down the field to the visitors three yard line. The Tech ' s heavy line proved equal to the task however and held on their goal line. The Miners held the Arkansas eleven to nine points for the first three quarters but Nemecek and Conley, the visitors’ backs, ran wild in the final quarter to score three touchdowns and clinch the set-to 30 to 0. A fast, heavy set of backs supported by an equally heavy line worked well in scoring a voctory for the Tech, gridders. Page StxtyJhn FOOTBALL T he Golden Wave came from behind in an uphill battle against a strong Kirksville Osteopath team in the next game to win 14 to 6. Lemon entered the line-up with the McCollum cohorts six points behind and proceeded to break away on an eighty-five yard brilliant dash for a touchdown From this point on the Miners held off the plunging Docs and a short pass, Ledford to Lemon, scored the second Miner touchdown Captain Lee halted the visitors thru out the second half after being on the sidelines for the first thirty minutes Ray gave a fine exhibition of receiving passes on the Miners left wing with Lacy putting up his usual valuable defense work at guard 1 he visitors ran thru the Miner defense time and again in midfield but when they approached the twenty yard line they faced a stone wall defense Ledford gained considerable yardage from a spread formation which caught the visitors napping more than once, [he St Louis Lb game was a hard contest to lose with the Bill i kens holding a 9 to 7 verdict when the final gun shot Thruout the game the Miners revamped line held the onrush ing Bi I likens but a 22 yard pass in the opening minutes of play gave the St Louisans their lone touchdown and subsequently, victory. The St Louis eleven ' s success at passing all during the game was the only thing that kept them in the running. Where the Miners aerial attack had previously done so much damage it failed to gain a yard against the Billiketis, I homas smashed his way from midfield for the Miners touchdown in the last quarter when he ripped thru the St. Louis line in short oft-tackie thrusts, A blocked kick gave the Billikens a safety in the third quarter which proved to be the winning points. Evansville College of Indiana received the brunt of a smashing Miner offense in the next game and were forced to acknowledge defeat 32 to 9 Captain Lee led his teammates in the attack by boring thru the enemy line for large and numerous gains. Berry and Lemon also took a major part in totalling up the Miners score. Thomas received a wrenched ankle in the first quarter that kept him on the injured list with Ledford and Ray who were injured in the St Louis game The McCollum eleven ' s battering attack met little resistance from Evansville while an intercepted pass was the means of the losers ' only score. Pa t Sixty-jour li 1 ! v 1 1 1 1 w i 1 IV . . w Football The Drury Panthers invaded J adding Field for the Miners annual contest in the next game The Panthers did the unexpected and held the Miners to a 6-6 tie in the first half after pre-game dope had given the Golden Wave the benefit of a much stronger team. Coach McCollum, however, held out the regular backfield in the first two quarters When Captain Lee, Lemon, Thomas and Berry started on a rampage in the second halt the Panthers soon found themselves unequal to the task of holding the Miners in check The final score stood Miners 26, Drury 6, when the final gun went off. Berry s passes to Sharp and Allebach proved very effective thru out the game after the visitors got the first score Captain Lee broke thru for two touchdowns while Thomas and Lemon toted the pigskin very dexterously in the last two quarters This was the twenty-second meeting of the Miners and the Panthers since 1893 and gave the Golden Wave 13 victories to 9 for Drury The elated warriors of M S M. put the finishing touch on the season ' s eight game schedule by turning in a brilliant triumph over the Springfield Bears at Springfield in the annual Thanksgiving Day fracas. After being on the defensive for practically the whole first half the Golden ave began to roll and scored twenty-one points in only a minute over one quarter Ledford ran wild from a triple pass formation, stepping thirty-five yards for one touchdown and two twenty-five yard gains in succession put the ball on the two yard line to result in another touchdown. Captain Lee plunged over for six points, kicked three perfect placements with a mud- covered ball and played a stalwart game to lend the finishing touch to his career in Miner moleskins. Thomas finished up his four years of varsity play by scoring the third touchdown with line-breaking plunges Berry s forty yard pass to Sharp also featured the Miner scoring rally. Bolen, Neidermeyer, and Allebach also performed well in the line and only darkness prevented Lemon from scoring a fourth touchdown The Miners come-back qualities in the second half resulted in victories over Kirksville, Drury, and Springfield in the last three games of the season and thruout the schedule in practically every game the golden jerseys outscored their rivals in the last half. This alone gives plenty of evidence of the fighting qualities of the 1926 M S.M. football eleven Page Sixty-fitt t y agc Svtty-six Basket Ball Page Sixty-seven tevvi iw yyvUr .- ' V BASKET BALL Page Sixty-tight i uVflfrwii i Iiv v ?y uwV rwuwW jj SVwM wV SfeVvi i w% %CVvi i w | BASKET BALL THE SQUAD The basket ball season proved to be an unsuccessful one but we put the blame on no one. “Spike” started out with a few lettermen hut these men soon dropped out of the running and the task of reorganizing the team con- fronted him. Captain Orchard was lost to the team after the mid-semester and his loss was keenly felt. Niedermeyer and I homas returned to the squad and it was through the work ot these two men that kept up the team s scoring punch. The development of several new candidates proved successful and we are looking forward to the next season when these men will form the nucleus of the team, Considering the games won the season was quite unsuccessful but of the games lost several were unfortunate. I wo of them were lost by a single point and in both cases they were lost because Dame Fortune refused to look kindly upon the golden-jerseyed men. All the lettermen will return to school next fall well grounded in the art of basket throwing and Spike should produce a winning team. Page Sixty-nine Basket ball LETTERMEN H.

Page Seventy-eight Baseball INTRAMURAL BASEBALL, 1926 Since there is no varsity baseball team an Intramural Baseball Series is held every spring. The winner of this series receives a cup for that year. After winning the cup three times it becomes the property of that team. There is keen competition in these games and holds the interest of the student body for the spring semester. The Faculty are well represented every year since they are allowed to play the employees of the various organizations located at the school, such as the Bureau of Mines. However, with all their star players they have failed to win the coveted prize. It seems as though the good pitching of “Doc” Schrenk is for nought since the other members ot the team are constantly thinking about school work and how they can flunk some poor freshman and make it look as though it were not his fault. May the faculty win when they have the best team. At the end of the regular playing schedule in the intramural baseball series the Kappa Sigmas and the Independents stood tied at nine victories apiece and one defeat. With Smith on the mound and Young catching the Kappa Sigmas won their second successive baseball pennant by a 10 to 6 score.

I he Missouri School of Mines Student Chapter was organized in the spring of 1924 by C. . B. Sitzler. Soon after its beginning it promoted the first inspection trip for Civil Engineers. At the suggestion of the Student Chapter this C. E. Senior Inspection T rip was made a require- ment for graduation becoming effective in 1926. The purpose of the Student Chapter is to further the study of Civil Engineering in the school. I he Society has a 100% enrollment of all Junior and Senior C.E. students. It is not unusual for the members to make talks before the organization. This gives the men a chance to become accustomed to speaking before an audience and to keep well informed on engineering subjects. I rominent engineers have been persuaded to speak before the local organization but this year they only succeeded in procuring one outside speaker, Mr. VV. G. Heltzel, who is promient in the oil game. Mr. Heltzel also spoke before the student body and the A.I.M.E. Association. HONORARY MEMBERS E. G. Harris J. B. Butler C. V. Mann H. C. Beckman T. G.

This worthy organization not only furnishes the school and townspeople with good amusement hut manage to help the juniors put on a bigger and better St. Pat ' s and to support themselves. Due to fact that no girls volunteered to take the female parts in the plays, these parts were very well taken by some of the Weaker” members of the Stronger Sex.” Since the member- ship is competitive a strong organization has been perfected.

Scheer P age Ont H undr td Txvinty-four The m. s. m. players The two plays “In the Zone and “The Glittering G ate were presented to the student body by the M.S.M. Players as their initial attempt of the year. Both plays were under the direction of Prof. L. W, Currier who is to be complimented on the excellent performances. I hese plays were of a little different type than the usual run of plays presented by the Players in that there was little or no humor in either ol them. “In the Zone was typical of all the rest of Eugene G, O ' Neil s plays, in that it was realistic, and dealt with man ' s relation to his fellowmen and with strife among men. As he drew his plays almost entirely from his own numerous hardships and experiences while working at various occupations all over the world, it is no wonder that they are the strongest type of drama and that they arc realistic and sordid. The setting for “In the Zone is the forecastle of the British tramp steamer, Glencsiirn, about midnight in the fall of 1915. On account of his shady actions, Smitty is suspected ol being a German spy and this suspicion grows upon the members ot the crew to the point that finally they tie him and open his strong box which, instead of containing the expected explosives, contained only some of Smi tty’s private correspondence which told the story ot his life. The cast included R. S. Pittmer, A. C. Adolph, R. L. Campbell, J. V- Sundstrom, L. W. Currier, T D. Murphy, O, W. Morris, and S. A. Lynch. The second play given was The Glittering Gate, written by Lord Dunsany. Dunsanv s plays are all highly imaginative, full of strong effective unfamiliar lands and characters. He works much for atmosphere and his plays are somewhat fatalistic. 1 his pi as was no exception to the rule. The play takes place in a lonely spot with none present except two dead burglars, Jim and Bill. Bill finds the gate of Heaven close at hand and while Jim discourages him, goes ahead and forces it open with a “jimmy.” Both men quickly drag open the doors only to find that nothing on the other side. Their limited intelligence does not allow them to realize that they can never find Heaven on account of their wickedness in this world and they finally decide that there is no Heaven. J. A, Spalding, as “Jim and I.. W. Currier, as “Bill,” made up the cast. The St. Pat ' s play Wappin’ Wharf,” was excellently presented by the Players only to be received in the most disheartening manner by all those present. The play was long and drawn out and for this reason most of the audience failed to appreciate the fineness of the acting. The action takes place on the windswept coast of Devon. The wind howls, the Pirates cuss with broad masterful cuss words, and the grog goes round and round the circle. Darlm’ makes grog like Anheuser-Busch used to make, the Captain drinks like Falstaff used to, love ,s made like Valentino used to; and the mystery compares with one of Sherlock Holmes’ stories. The cast included; O. W. Morris, R. S. Dittmer, S. A. Lynch, W. R Schweickhardt, H. L. Harrod, A. L. McRae, D. W. Smith, and J. V. Sundstrom.

I he Reserve Officers’ 1 raining Corps comprises the units established in schools and colleges throughout our country as feeders for the corps of reserve officers needed by our national defense policy. The training course as offered by the government through the schools is not only helpful to the government as a source of supply of future officers, but is an education in itself to the student. The United States is divided up into corps areas and the R.O.T.C. unit at the M.S.M. is in the Seventh Corps Area. At the present time there are about two hundred and fifty R. O. I.C. units in the leading colleges and universities of the country. These units have produced about thirty thousand reserve officers and expect to produce about five thousand more each year. I he unit at M.S.M. consists of one hundred and sixty men. Of this number, thirty-nine are advanced course students consisting of Juniors and Seniors, while the remainder of the unit is made up of basic course students consisting of Freshmen and Sophomores. The military course offered at this school is strictly engineering and when the full four years have been complet- ed the student receives a commission as Second Lieutenant, Engineer Section, Officers Reserve Corps. There are nineteen seniors in the advanced corps and all of them will probably receive a commission. The highest honor that can l e received in the advanced course is to be appointed Cadet Major. Through the Director and with the consent of the Board of Curators the student receiv- ing the rank of Major is exempt from all fees and deposits required during the Senior year. This scholarship was won by Ned O. Kraft who is Cadet Major of the Battalion. The unit is organized into a battalion of four companies with a battalion staff and company officers. All Seniors are cadet officers; Juniors are non-commissioned officers; Sophomores, corporals and first class privates. In this manner the men receive a higher rank every year as they advance in the work and is the ideal way of organizing the students. This system was started last year At eight o’clock every Saturday morning the entire battalion is formed for drill. At this hour the cadet officers take full charge of the drilling with the aid of the regular officers of the army. The work for the morning has been previously outlined for each commander and this schedule is followed for that period. By allowing the students to do the drilling, they receive well directed instruction in leadership and the ability to appear before others in well poised manner. It is the general impression among outsiders that the course offered consists entirely of drilling. As a matter of fact the drilling is the smallest part of the training. Three hours a week are spent in the class room where the technical subjects concerning military are taught. 1 his training is of much economical value to the student as well as instruction in a military course.

CAMP, 1926 On June LI the inhabitants of the Swedish settlements of St, Paul and Minneapolis were astonished startled , bewildered and surprised by the invasion of their peaceful Scandinavian communities by a horde of collegia tes from the middle west, some arriving by train, riding either the cushions or blinds, while others came in more elegant style of piloting slightly extinct yet tastefully decorated flivvers. Among this mob of embryo soldiers on the wav to Fort Snelling were nineteen students of the Missouri School of Mines, who, having performed various feats Lor the medical department, were then properly clothed and domiciled in Colonel Welsh VCamp Lor Collegiate Cadets, W hereupon began the search for knowledge of soldiering. Major LentK began this training in in bin try drill by the introduction of his famous leather-lunged cadence system, altho one of the majors present objected to so damn much noised Another joy spot ot camp was Colonel Mumma ' s rifle range and it is said rhat such hills as there are in Minnesota are still reverberating to his vocal booming, “With Ball Cartridges Load! Demolitions, trenches, entanglements, recon naisance, sketching, and bridges filled the program Lor the engineer platoon, D-J, which consisted of Engineer students from Iowa U., Ames, Kansas U., and M.S.M., under the excellent leadership of Lieut. H. J. Casey. In connec- tion with the construction of a pontoon bridge across the Minnesota River, a boat race using the awkward pontoons was held. This race was won by the Miner ' s stalwart crew, consisting of Wightman, Cammack, Slates, Mariner, Livingston, Hodgdon and McCauley. Athletics played a prominent part in the Camp activities. The Miners showed up well in wrestling, baseball, track anti swimming. The Miners achieved most instant fame by virtue of their exceptional vocal accomplish- ments, and the chorus composed of a selected cast of tenors, baritones, monotones, and under- tones, with Dingus McReynofds on the banjo, received immediate acclaim. Captain Moore anti Lieutenant Walter accompanied the Miner aggregation and were apparently well pleased with the showing of these nineteen members of the class of P 69, particularly the perlect 1 00 per cent record in discipline which the Miners rated. Page One ft undred Thirty-fix o Page On t Ilundrtd Thirty -ftvfr t Page One Hundred Thirty-eight Page One Hundred Thirty-nine ST. Pat’s ST. PAT’S, 1927 It is customary that men of a certain profession should celebrate and pay homage to the greatest man of that profession. It is more than that. It is fitting and altogether proper that they should do this. 1 hat is why the biggest day in the M.S.M. Engineers 1 calendar is March 17th. W hen that day came this year all daily toil was stopped and all true and loyal engineers paid homage to the one and only St. Pat., who as every one knows, visits this school annually on the day when with the greatest of engineering ingenuity he drove the snakes from Ireland. In this way he acquired the title of saint and became the patron of all engineers tor never before nor since has such an engineering feat been attempted. It deserves the utmost of attention and his visit to Roll a is an honor which the most distinguished of men strive to secure. 1 he venerable old hard, accompanied as usual by a retinue of his faithful followers garbed in fitting costumes, arrived at the Grand Central Station, where many of his loyal enthusiasts wept with joy at seeing their far famed leader. After a stirring welcome St. Pat. mounted his chariot and accompanied with guards and pages, lead the parade through the streets of fair Rolla and finally to Parker Hall where he gave greetings to the school and its guests. Once more great credit is due to the ignoble Quo Vadis “Kids” for the safe-guarding all year of that ancient and far famed ninth wonder of the world — the Blarney Stone. Several times in years gone by, the Blarney Stone has been stolen but each time, after a great expenditure of mind and money it has been recovered. Once it was taken just before the date set for St. Pat s visit, and on arriving here and hearing of the great catastrophe he was very angry and exceedingly harsh with the M.S.M. students. It is said that he threatened never to come back if it was lost again and so every one is more than glad to see it safely guarded. Then in due form St. Pat knighted, presented with a pin ami sheepskin, and reprimanded in a fatherly way all of his senior sons. After the last one had kissed the Blarney Stone, the ceremony in due reverence ended. That afternoon the comedy, “Wappin Wharf” was presented at Parker Hail by the M.S.M. Players. Its presentation of pirate life in the days gone by was portrayed with no little ability and it won the applause of the pleased house. The crowning feature of the St. Pat ' s festivities was the St. Pat ' s Ball that night, which rivaled in beauty and splendor any of those of his previous visits. The Gymnasium was turned into a joy-hunter s paradise, decorated in the most ingenious way with a pleasant arrangement of color combinations. I he lighting effects could in no way have been better, and it could be easily seen that St. Pat was pleased with the efforts of his juniors. Red and green and gold doth was suspended around the walls, anti the ceiling, dome shaped, was studded with the vari- colored lights, that kept up a constant change and produced a very pleasing effect. And such pretty guests! Fair damsels from the world over came to make this a bigger and better celebra- tion and it is due these joy-makers that the dance was the astounding success it was. Beauties of every description were there. Blonds, (gentlemen prefer them, they say) brunettes — dark ladies, light ladies— every type was represented. Lovers, perhaps since childhood, were seen in an evident state of bliss. Other couples less fortunate, (or is it more?) while not in the same sort of bliss were enjoying a thrill of a lifetime. Just before mid-flight St. Pat was announced and the crowd gave way as he approached his throne The dancers were then commanded to Kow tow, and the three hundred joy imbibers fell to their knees and made ready for the grand entn ol the past queens, maids of honor and the Queen and her attendants. The procession then started and in a stately manner moved down the aisle. Miss Helen Underwood, St. Pat ' s Queen 1925, entered first. Next came Miss Dorothy Keisler, St. Pat ' s Queen 1926, followed by the two maids of honor, Miss Helen Bowen and Miss Lucia Keisler, At this moment a great hush fell on the expectant crowd as the 1927 Queen made ready to make her appearance, ftp- ceded by the crown bearer and the little flower girls, Miss Lorame Love, this year ' s Queen, accompanied by her train bearers, entered, and to the strains of St Patrick ' s favorite ballad, I he Wearing ot the Green ’ moved in a most pleasing and winning manner down the aisle way Page One Hundred Forty ST. PAT’S The dancers could not he restrained longer from their expression of awe and enthusiasm. 1 hey refused to remain Kow-Towed at the sight of so glorious a spectacle as that of Miss Love in all her lovely beauty, as she slowly and with Queenly hearing moved gracefully to the foot ot the throne where amidst great applause, she was crowned by St. Patrick as the 1927 Queen ot Love and Beauty. For the first time in the history of the St. Pat ' s festivities a former Queen s sister sat on the throne and ruled supreme. Miss Nancy Love received this highest compliment of the Junior Class in 1920, and now her younger sister has followed her as holder and ruler ot the hearts of the M.S.M. students. After a short stay on the throne the Royal Party, led by St. Patrick and Queen Lora me, lett the ball room through an aisle way formed by their admiring subjects. This marked the most important event of the evening and the costumed merr - makers seemed content to resume their dancing. Speaking of costumes: I here were all descrip- tions; Desperados, highwaymen, preachers, kids, and what-nots, mingling with lair ones disguised as bewitching nymphs of all kinds. Not until four o ' clock did the guests begin to weaken and then the orchestra played a final Strain and rhe tired but happy merry-makers wended their weary way home. But the following morning— Ugh! Everybody sure look ed dead. I he celebratory did not seem to appreciate it as much as they might have, had it not been for the strenuous night before. Much complaining of sore feet, etc., was heard and many expressions of regret that the wonderful time of last night was gone. But as the afternoon came along the dead faces liegan to liven up with anticipation of the oncoming tea dances. 1 here were two, and from a! reports thev were as good as a million. The M.S.M. Varsity orchestra spilled the music at the K. A House all afternoon and the Varsity Club fairly rained syncopation on rhe now fully recovered joy hunters at the Sigma Nu House. It could be easily noticed, as the yells and laughs, etc. indicated, that the cele bra tors were again started on another complete day ot pleasure. In another part of our fair citv of Kolia, while It was much more quiet and dignified than the dances then in progress, a delightful reception was being held. Mrs. Emily Diehl was hostess prettily decorated home at a reception in honor ot Miss Lorame Love, the 1 M. atnek s Queen: just one more event to help make the St. Pat ' s celebration a complete success And by the time the dances and the reception were over everyone was all set for another glorious night. All the complaining of sore feet had long since ceased and no one had a thought except for dinner and then a big formal dance. The guests at the tea dances departed around . :A to clothe themselves in their finest for the last formal dinner and the big Jumor Prom. At nine-thirty the doors of the Gym were thrown open and the revelers began to fill the ball-room once more. But what a contrast to the dance of the night before. Gone were the reckless costumes of the mask hall and the red-necked cow-hoy ot the night before turned, as If by magic, into a stately figure clothed to perfection in the formal black and white. s arm, instead of the lady who last night was known as Lou, was a fair damsel arrayed m a beautiful gown fringed with pearls— a rival to any majestic and dignified beauty that history might de- scribe to us. The contrast between the two nights is almost unbelievable It was indeed as beautiful and interesting in its dignity as the night before was m its recklessness. he fairy- figures flitted here and there across the hall room, on, or m the arms of the transformed M.S.XL students. Music has never before been so thrilling or inspiring as that produced for the fun makers that night. It is a funny Miner who did not, during the whole ot the time lose his hen t to love. And an almost impossible feat to restrain from casting a cupid inflected eye m th direction of one (or more) of these beautiful visitors. The crowd danced as t hey never toced before and everything seemed too good to be true. However there is an end to al and as the bell struck three times rhe Cinderella began to vanish with them Princ s an l he ld gym took on its silent cloak once more. With the departing of the guests, this year s chapter in Great Celebrations” came to a close and thus ended a glomus celebrat.on of the coming of that great old bard — St. Patrick.

Not all of them came hack but those that did enjoyed one ot the best home-coming celebrations ever held at M.S.M , The Home-coming held on October 14, 15, 16 saw an ingathering ot a total of 103 of the former students of the School of Mines, and from reports on all sides was in every way a decided success. Rolla, as was to be expected, had the largest representation, but St. Louis and vicinity was a dose second with 20 alumni in attendance. The Lead licit, Joplin, Chicago, Tuba, and Kansas City, were all well represented. Registration was the 14th. On the 15th, the first general meeting was at mass meeting hour. A. D. I errill 98, announced the I au Beta Pi pledges. Following this was a general pep meeting getting ready tor the Arkansas Aggie battle. Thorny called on various alumni present tor a short talk and they all responded nobly. That night the alumni, 75 in number, gathered at the Baltimore Hotel for a luncheon, hollowing this they went to gymnasium tor a smoker, wrestling and boxing demonstration by the students. Saturday afternoon was too bad for the Miners who could not stop the strong Aggie team and lost 30 to Q. That night proved to a glorious night for all Seniors and Alumni when a dance was held for their benefit at the gymnasium. Rather wet, yes, but then no different from any other Home-coming dances.

Pap Out H undtfd F vrty-six Station msm STATION MSM BROADCASTING The Roll a mo Board wishes to announce that the following students have proven that they are in class by themselves and are hereby recommended to Rolla ' s Hall of Fame, C. F. “Bobo” Boismenue, the only one man in the wide world who would ever undertake the task of dating so many large women and expecting to handle them Of course Bo ho is of superior stock to the general run of M.S.M. students and should have some confidence in his work. F. H. “Satch” Conley, student and politician Thereis no doubt that Satch has put more men into office than any other five men put together. He has that come hither appeal in those Irish blue eyes that no one can resist and with his shining countenance he painlessly forces all to his will Just what “Pinky” Conley will do to the world after graduation is a question. Unquestionably, the Republicans and Democrats are too weak tor him and we are looking In- ward to a new political party Prof. L. V, Currier, dramatist of no mean ability and an instructor who knows his rocks Besides being one of the proud members of the faculty, he has one of the neatest crops of hair in Phelps County — yes! Both of them arc worn like all artists wear them. Our only recommenda- tion is to use some of Fred Lane’s famous swamp-root H. H Marrod, the only student who went to a Miner dance sober with the idea of dancing- Now there is no sin against going to dances sober, but to think that this young man goes with the sole idea of hot- footing it around is absurd. We suppose that he docs not realize that the gentlemen present would care to dance with their own dates once in a great while 1 lugo s day is coming but we do not know when, W. A. “Mac” McCanless, the greatest hand-shaker the school has ever acquired. Of course “Mac” does not do this to get a grade in any of his subjects, he just can not bear so see the wonderful results of his various jobs go unseen or talked about 1 hey say there is nothing like knowing your Prof and “Mac” is following it extremely well Captain K, M. Moore, our bright soldier boy who has at last converted the government over to the idea that officers pants should be college as well as in any other profession, II ts latest garment shows the lull bag beginning at the top and getting bagger as you approach the knee. We give full credit to “Cap” for establishing this style. Jack Weber, the man who is still a cross-word puzzle to his profs. It questions ever helped a man to success, Jack has passed the successful stage at least a year ago. Perhaps he forgets there are several others in the course who came to listen to the prof, and not him. It will be a great day when Jack becomes the prof, and can ask himself plenty ol questions C, L, Zane Grey,” the last of his line. We admire that dashing young look in Zane’s eye as he imagines he is after the Indian again One more pistol and be will be back to the days of 49 A man who can raise a mustache like that rope of Zane’s should go west and make a name for himself. May we see the day when Zane will be riding a white horse in some circus.

A crave for fun without paying the price, I want to be naughty and yet he nice; I crave for the thrills of a long, close kiss, I want the things that good girls miss; 1 crave the heart and arms ot a man And yet stay single, it I can. i ve come to you now tor advice In how to lie naughty and still be nice, 1 crave to do what other girls do; Tease ' em, cuddle Up, bill and coo, Blacken my eyes and powder my nose, Rouge my cheeks to look like a rose; Tango a little and shimmy a lot, Bark mv corset when the weather is hot; Ride and swim, and golf and skate, fake the fence instead of the gate; Break all records — yes- but one, And be good and true when the game is done. 1 don ' t like the pepper but ! do like the spice. Oh, 1 want to be naughty and still be nice. AND THE ANSWER This advice, dear girl, is good and true, You can ' t eat your cake and have it, too. If you want the man and you want the wine. Why someone must pay when you wine and dine, The next must he but a longer kiss, If you want the things that good girls miss. You’ve got to be wiser than most girls, Sis. So watch your step is my advice, If you want to be naughty and still be nice. Go to it kid, with powder and painty To make you look like what you ain’t; Shimmy and dance to your heart’s content. Be hugged and kissed till your ribs are bent; Park your corsets on a hickory limb, But never, my dear, go into swim, Bathe if you will on the dewy green, But you can’t use mud and come out clean. The game you ' d play is man’s long suit, Since Eve first nibbled on forbidden fruit. Whatever you get you must pay the price; You can’t be naughty and still be nice. — Phi Chi page One Hundred Fijty-onc w 1 Jokes Clubman: My wife doesn’t like the portrait you did of me at all — says it isn’t natural.

What are your qualifications?” “Well — my father is a bad shot.” — Virginia Reel. The vaudeville performer was giving her interpretation of the hula-hula at the church festival. The scandalized minister hurried- ly sought the chairman of the entertainment committee. “I think,” he said severely, “that dancer is out of place.” “It does look like it, sir, but that’s just the way she’s dancing,” returned the young man.
