1915 RAVELINGST ety? itfantlti}. S Kl ' SSELL GRAHAM D. D. Social Science. When Prof. Graham was in school the boys used to call him Russ. We would like to call him that too for he seems like a com- rade. He has has seen a good many student generations come and go but he still retains his faith in humanity. j. h. McMillan, a. m. Litt. d. Latin. John Henry ' s dearest delight is to get etwas reams of red, yellow, mauve, helitrope Alice blue, pea green and Tango yellow paper, cut same into strips and then distribute them among the long-suffering students. When it comes to making red tape the man who made rope out of sea-sand never had anything on the noblest Roman of them all. This Prof, is the kindly gentleman who salutes his classes at the door. JOHN NESBIT SWAN, A. M. Ph. D. Chemistry and Physics. Here is the man whom the University of Mississippi tried to swipe from us but who wouldn ' t stay swiped. He is the original cold-blooded, keep-your-distance, 32-below- and-getting-colder member of the faculty. He is the sworn enemy of the yellow dog and the chief thorn in the mongrel ' s side. Don ' t, don ' t get entangled with his committee. m

1915 RAVELI NGST m ALICE WINBIGLER, A. M. Mathematics. Permit us to present the Dean-o ' -wom- en. She is variously known as Lady Alice, Alice in Wonderland, or Sweet Alice Ben Bolt. She has some very decided opinions which she occasionally airs at meetings for girls only. It is a problem how she will spend her time after the Dorm, is finished. LUTHER EMERSON ROBINSON, A. M. English. Prof. Robbie is the man who says he doesn ' t feel the need of a watch. Sometimes when we look back over our shoulder to see lim stumbling up the slope five minutes lat for class we are glad he doesn ' t. This gentle- man is the inventor of the famous interpolat- ed what? RUSSELL McCULLOUGH STORY, A. M. History. Story left us in February to sing Illi- nois Loyalty down at Champaign. He was the Roosevelt leader of the faculty progressives. Well do we remember his doctrine of too-much- paternalism. He was a good friend and ca- pable professor. DAVID CARL SHILLING, A. M. History. This prize package we got from Miami University. We might make a pun and say that pound of guinea or sovereign would de- scribe him better than Shilling but we are pre- vented from doing this because he insists on calling himself Silling. He is the well set up, blue-eyed Saxon who hangs out at the History room and the ball park. Definition — The faculty is a body of members paid to help the Seniors run the school. n m
