If appreciation for this memento of well-known scenes, portrayed in various ways, shall increase more and more as time advances, we will be amply rewarded for our labor in its construction. We desire to express our thorough gratitude for the united, untiring efforts of the Class, the loyal support and encouragement from the faculty, the patronage and assistance from many of the student body and alumni in general.

Pgg AT1EMA A Semi-Centennial Message to the Class of Nineteen Hundred and Twelve Being young people with your faces to the future, you may feel reluctant to listen to a Voice from the Past. In your calendar fifty years gone are an age. whose beginning seems last in the midst of intiquity; and a man who graduated fifty years ago probably appears to you as one of the last survivors of an almost extinct race. The class to which I belonged was not put to the test to which I am subjecting you; for there was no graduate of 1812 to send greeting to the class of 1862. Classes by years were not organized in the University until 1820, and no diploma was dated earlier than 1815. The stage in your college career which you have now reached should enable you to see as never before the meaning and value of it all. It is true of all growth that its true significance is revealed, not at the beginning, but at the end. And, since college life is but a small part of life as a whole, you will attain a still deeper interpretation of it as your years increase. At seventy your undergraduate days will seem to you richer in prophecy and potency, though not, I hope, in actual result, than any other equal period of your lives, and will be enshrined in your memory as instaT omnium the days of light and hope. What is the purpose of college life? To impart knowledge, and thus en- rich the mind. To beget the love of knowledge, and thus lead on in a perpetual search and struggle for it as for food. To furnish discipline, that our powers may perform their tasks with grace and beauty, with strength and skill. To implant in our souls ideals great and high which shall constantly draw us upward by theii compelling attraction. To imbue us with wisdom, so that we shall sacrifice what is low for what is high, what is base for what is noble, what is transient for what is enduring, what is visible for what is invisible. In a word, its aim is spiritual transformation. Do you know Thomas Davidson ' s definition of education? I ihink it is one of the best. Education, in so far as it depends on consious exer- tion, is that process by which a human being is enabled to transcend his original nature and attain his ideal nature. How much of what you were when you en- tered college you have now ceased to be! Opinions, manners, habits, ways of looking at life, which seemed then as bone of your bone and flesh of your flesh, have dropped away; and others of which you had never dreamed or which you had viewed as absurd and impossible, you now hold as part of your most precious possessions. Subjects then unheard of are now familiar. Mental tasks then in- superable are now done out of hand. Your eyes have been anointed, so that whereas you were blind you now see. Where before there was total darkness you now see knowledge, truth, power, possibility. Your ears have been unstopped, so that whereas you were deaf you now hear. Where before there was total silence you now hear voices of wisdom and instruments of music. Powers that were sleep- ing unconscious withou you have felt the magical touch of Science or Literature or Philosophy, and have leaped forth in newness of life; so that whereas you were as dead you are now alive. How many fine enthusiasms have been born in you during these four years, and how the finest of them are glowing in your breast to- day! If you have derived from your education all that it should have yielded, it has done for you what Dr. W. T. Harris says the dialectic of Socrates did for the Greek people; This made possible the ascent from opinion to truth, from soph- istry to the vision of God. And yet no spiritual transformation, however complete, can annihilate or eliminate the past. What we have done and what we have been still abides in us in some form of consequence. our present gathers into itself all your past. Chiefly, it perhaps seems to you, it gathers into itself the experience of your col- lege years, these years of adolescent awakening and reconstruction. You are what you were; the same, — and yet how different! 10 ATW. The good that you have gained is good in itself, good for its own sake. But it is also preparation. Momentous as your college life has been for what it has already brought you, it is still more momentous for what it will bring you in that wider world into which you are about to enter. The quality and issue of your whole future will be dyed through and through with the hue of your life in college. As your present dreams become reality and your present purposes crystallize into action, the hue, bright or dark, will deepen. As time passes and years accumulate, you will feel the ichor or the poison of youth still throbbing in your veins. If your life hitherto has been pure and strong and your tasks have been performed und;r the inspiration of great aims, your student toils and triumphs will open the way to results far surpassing any that you have yet accomplished; so that fifty years hence you may look back on a record of fine achievement and noble service, and will find that the best of the wine has been kept till the last of the feast. Grow old along with me! The best is yet to be. The last of life, for which the rest was made. Our times are in His hand Who saith, ' A whole I planned; Youth shows but half; trust God: see all, nor be afraid. ' William H. Scott, Class of 1862.

Within the Chapel Within the empty nave I sat While evening shadows gathered round. And heard the swelling organ peal With majesty of prayerful sound. The organist above me seemed An airy spirit from afar, But on her face I thought I saw A darkened blotch, a shapeless scar. E en as I wondered at the sight The setting sun ' s last ray of fire Came struggling through an oriel, Illumining the dusky choir. Her head, half-turned to greet the beam. Revealed what gloom wouid not disclose; The blemish, bathed in light, had fled. For from her hair there drooped a rose. — C. R. Ridenour. 30 ath: GEORGE CROMWELL BLOWER. A. B.. B. O., Glouster, Ohio.

It remains to future historians to revise such chronicles and to give them their proper setting among the movements of the world ' s history. It is with the hope that some historian of the future will find a basis upon which to work, that the following history of the Class of 1 9 1 2 is written. It is the fall of 1908, and every incoming train is bringing its crowd of stu- dents to Athens. Watch those streams of humanity as they leave the station and move up Union Street. See those groups that were so warmly greeted by friends who were awaiting their train ' s arrival. How happily and self-confide- i trey look as they go along, talking and laughing. But not all of the pi ture is so pleas- ing. See those individuals who make up a portion of the crowd and yet are left so distinctly alone by the larger band of merry-makers. But no! among this smaller group there are a few exceptions. That was kind, Mr. Sophomore to re- lieve that little girl of her large suitcase, and at the same time to relieve her heart of the anxiety of finding Boyd Hall. Of course you have recognized among this crowd the Freshmen of the Class of 1912, who are as it were, entering upon a new life Most of us were keenly aware of this transition and as the weeks went by we had cur trials. Everything was so new and strange, and pictures of home loomed so constantly in mind that, at times, the experience was for most of us rather trying. Then too, we must be the butt of ridicule for the upper classmen, especially the Sophomores. But we had not been long at O. U. before these Scphs., con- scious that we were fast becoming their superiors in intellectual keenness, resolved to put our physical powers to the test by challenging us to a game of football As a mark of deference to their superior rank, we tendered then this victory, but that they might not feel too highly elated, we defeated them in basketball liter in the year. By degrees we took on new customs, learned to see things diTerertly, and when we came back after the Christmas holidays, we began to feel that we were distinctly a part of O. U. Only time and the passing of those dreadful finals were necessary to our becoming Sophomores, and the fall of 1909 afforded that opportunity to those who had successfully weathered the storm. Now it was our turn to break in the Freshmen and be assured we di i not miss the opportunity. Surely we had not been so credulous and unsophisticated just one year before. 54 ATHE During this year our class was criticised for inactivity. One morning the blackboards of the different classrooms were disfigured by the boastful statements of the various activities in which the other classes were engaging, t g Cer wit ' t the question. Where, O where are the Sophs.? We made answe- that we were the students of the University and we have always tried to live up to tfn reputation. In how far we have succeeded it is not for us to say. We must leave that to the tender mercies of our professors. That we were not wholly a minus quantity in college affairs the following will prove. In athletics our boys were much in evidence, showing generesity and good will towards the Freshmen by allowing them a victory in the Sophomore- Freshmen tug o ' war. That our underclassmen did not appreciate the spirit of our self-sacrifice was not to our discredit. During this year, t:o, we were greatly elated over our victory in the first inter-class baseball game. Our Junior year dawned under auspicious circumstances wit ' i a large class enrollment and a close organization which was maintained and strergthened throughout the year. Our class meetings were, for the most part, of a social na- ture, which tended greatly towards feelings of goodwill and fellowship. Of course we worked a little, or we would not be Seniors today, but we had good times along with the work. Arrong the pleasant memories of this year are, the reception given by President and Mrs. Ellis, the Junior From, and the picnic on East Hill, where the Seniors of 1911 were the guests of honor and where the only antagonism shown was that of a tug o ' war between the boys of the two classes and another between the girls. When summer school opened there were about forty of our w:uld-Se Seniors among the enrolled. For various reasons the ranks of cur class had been depleted, but owing to the new recruits who had come to us from other coll-ges and through the agency of the summer school, our class reached seniordom, wit ' a nuaabers almost equal to those of our Freshman yeai. Under the guidance of our presidents. Beckley, Armstrong, and tlson, we have passed through the different years of our college course, and now with Stailey as our president, we are pushing on, seventy strong. We are prcud of our married men, proud of our single men. proud of our young girls, proud of those who are not so young, proud, too, that we are the largest class that has ever passed through the doors of O. U. But a sketch of this class would be incomplete W ' thnut the ment ' on of one who has taken such an active interest in the affairs of the Class — one whes ' qual- ities of heart and mind make him respected and admired bv all who fnw him Need we say that we refer to our Class Professor, C. M. Copeland? Foremost among the pleasant memories of our Senior year is the class dinger, given by Pro- fessor and Mrs. Copeland last December. None can forget the spirit of god-fel- lowship and class unison displayed on that occasion. We must not close without a word to the faculty, those who have been our friends and instructors during our college days. May the example they have set, and the teachings we have received from them, aid us in aiding others as we dedi- cate ourselves to the world ' s service. May the future work and accomp ' ishments of its members sound the praises of the Class of 1912. 55 $P£ 5$|g at: EASg - o 55 IORS m Pp§ ath: [A.as9£g b 58 Clarence A. Matheny, Classical.

There was a class in the Ohio University whose name was Junior, and that class was perfect and upright, one that feared the faculty and kept all rules. 2. Now there was in that class thirty-three boys and twenty-two girls. 3. Great was the genius of that class so that it was the greatest of all the classes in the whole state. 4. Now the boys and girls of this class went and feasted and made rnerry with Dr. and Mrs. Claassen, the Class Professor and his wife. Everyone had his fill. 5. And it was so when the hours of their feasting and rejoicing were gone, that they rose up and offered great thanks to their host and hostess, according to the number of them all; for they said: It may be, and it is so that this is the fin- est hospitality to be had. Thus did they continually. Chapter II. 1 . And it did come to pass that the men of the different classes were to compete in athletics, and the winners should represent the Varsity team. 2. And lo! were not the men of 13 in the majority. And there was great rejoicing. 3. Now there came a day in 1911 when the men of O. U. did conspire to conquer the men of O. W. U. 4. Now it being a great distance, those given to revelry chartered a special train, that they might the more easily reach their destination. And the company was two hundred strong. 5. And was not all this due to Marshall Fawcett, the great cheer leader? Chapter III. 1 . And now it came to pass that an evening was set aside for the men of ' I 3 to compete with the men of ' 12 in basketball. 2. Now it chanced that the men of ' 1 2 were victorious, and great was their rejoicing. 3. But lo! on the following morning not a Senior could be seen. And the faculty did ask: Where are these Seniors who have by chance, even over- come the mighty Juniors? 4. And they heard behind a great voice as of a trumpet and they turned to see the voice that spake, and being turned, saw one with authority, the mighty Micklethwait. 5. And he spake thus, saying: They lie stricken with a great plague, from the greatest even unto the smallest of them. 6. And they asked: What sort of a plague is this? 7. And the deep voice spake again, saying: The swell-head. 8. And it was so. Chapter IV. 1. But thou, O Junior Class, hath found a pearl of great price. True knowjedge is thy heritage and wisdom is thy portion of all good things. 2. No longer shall it be said that out of the mouths of babes and sucklings shall there come forth wisdom, but henceforth shall it be said of the Junior Class. 3. For has not the Class of 1913 the best President in the University, who is known by the name of Matheny, and is not that of sufficient recommenda- tion in itself. 4. Thy strength shall be as the might of many hosts, and thy renown shall spread to all corners of the earth. The name of the Class of 1913 shall be called blessed and its members will rule the fertile regions of all lands. 5. And if any students shall doubt the words of this book, great shall be the wrath upon him, and his name shall be blotted out. 6. I, who testifieth to these things, am done. Amen. 9 iSSftg ATMEMA : Class Officers Virgil Falloon President Rollin E. Guttridge Vice President Lillian Esther Terrell Secretary J. O. Grimes Treasurer Edwin H. Pake Sergeant-at-Arms E.

When in the autumn of 1910 we, two hundred and forty strong, entered Ohio University as Freshmen, the entire college stood and stared at us. The Sophomores, although envious, stood abashed before our wisdom, the Juniors cheered and praised us loudly, the Seniors growled at our learning, and when college closed in June, the Faculty was fairly paralyzed at our brilliancy. The Sophomres had special reason to regard us with fear and trembling, for not along intellectual lines alone did we distinguish ourselves. Did we not, one glorious day in June 1911, tear the flag of the haughty Sophs, from the flag pole and bear it in triumph off the campus? Did we not literally wipe up the earth with them in football, basketball, and baseball? And who can ever forget our thrilling victory over the Class of ' 1 3 in the Tug of War? Nor were we behind the other classes in our social activities. We shall long retain the mem- ory of the delightful party given by our Class Professor, Dr. Wilson. In the autumn of I 9 I I , we came back to college looking eagerly forward to the acquaintances we would renew. We were not disappointed, for many of our class returned and a number of new students joined us. Early in the Fall Term of 1911 our class was reorganized with Mr. Falloon as President. Since that time we have met regularly every month and at each meeting a short literary program has been given. The inspiring talks of our Class Professor together with these literary programs have done much to arouse the interest and enthusiasm of the members of the class. We have kept up our reputation in athletics by defeat- ing the Juniors in basketball and winning the in-door track meet. Now that we have so gloriously passed through the first two years of our college life, we feel that our success is assured. So with high purpose and true aims, we are striving to do our best so that wherever we may be in the years to come, we may look back upon our college career as Sophomores with pride and pleasure, not with regret. , 69 ATHEHA SOPHOMORE TUG O ' WAR TEAM THE TUG-OF-WAR. The Tug-of-War is an annual contest between the Sophomore and Fresh- man classes. It is held on the State Hospital Grounds. The teams, averaging about two thousand pounds on a side, are arranged at the ends of a long rope which is stretched across the lake. The team that pulls the other through the lake is declared the winner. Last year an immense crowd gathered to see the 1914 tug-of-war team not only defeat the champion 1913 team of the year before, but also prove their sup;r- iority over the sturdy Hospital attendants. For a half-hour, neither side gained any advantage, but finally the Freshmen, headed by Captain Long as anchor man, gained a little headway which the Sophs, were unable to overcome and finallv the Sophs, dripping with water were pulled upon the opposite bank. Great rejoicing reigned that night in the 1914 camp. THE FLAG RUSH. The flag-rush victory together with the football, basketball, baseball, and tug-of-war victory gave the Class of 1914 last June the title of champions of the athletic arena at Ohio University. This being the last contest between the 1913 and 1914 Classes, the Sophs, after nailing their flag on the lofty flag-pole in front of Ewing Hall, stood guard awaiting the assault. The first attempt was made at one o ' clock, but the Sophs repulsed the attack. At this juncture, the Sophs secured a hose and attempted to scatter the Freshies by water bombardment but the Freshies soon captured the hose. While the Sophs were holding council, a sturdy T 4er by the name of Robert Rucker leaped out of the crowd and amid the cheers of the spectators and Freshies ascended the pole and quickly tore loose the Sophomore emblem and let it flutter to the ground where the fight over the flag was taken up with renewed vigor, finally resulting in its capture by the Class of 1914. The 1913 flag was torn to pieces and distributed as mementoes among the Freshmen warriors and their ladies fair. a s iPgl PlgS ATKEM 3bg EZS FRESHMEN Class Officers Blaine R.

For many of us this was our first experience in braving the sea of life. But what of that? Could you imagine a body of young people just out of high school, and teeming with lofty ambitions and ideals to fail in an undertaking of this nature? If so you are badly mistaken, for it was not long after school commenced that we were known in college organizations as a rival worthy of the name. No sooner had we become located in our new home than we felt the need of a more perfect organization. A meeting was called at which Mr. Blaine R. Goldsberry was elected president, a choice which we have never regretted. At a later meeting we chose Professor Treudley Class Professor and selected maroon and old gold as class colors. The social side of life is not to be neglected and it is with this end in view that the social committee, appointed soon after organizing, has already formulated plans for several social events during the Spring Term. Of our results in athletic activities we are justly proud. Not only did we defeat the doted Sophomores in the annual football game, but our basketball team also won the class championship during the Winter Term, having defeated by a safe margin every team it met. We are now looking forward to the Spring Term when we shall endeavor to uphold our colors with strong track and baseball teams. Thus has passed our first year at college. As we look forward to the three remaining years of our college course it is with the hope that they may be as profit- able as our first has been pleasant. At the same time we believe that this ideal is attainable if we but follow the advice of the poet when he sings: Press on! surmount the rocky steep, Climb boldly o ' er the torrent ' s arch; He fails alone who feebly creeps; He wins who dares the hero ' s march. 73 ms mm. at: wszsm x y CO D 74 ?JX£JI 75 X NORMAL I iiC OLLLG EJ 77 ■ s kM ?

History of State Normal College Ohio University took a new lease on life when the Ohio General Assembly decided in March, 1902, by the passage of the Seese Bill, to attach to the Uni- versity the State Normal College for the training of all students desiring to pre- pare themselves for the work of teaching, quoting from the law referred to. The law further authorized the Board of Trustees to organize a school which shall be co-ordinate with existing courses of instruction. The law further pro- vided a separate mill-tax support for the State Normal College and this mill-tax has been assessed each year since the passage of the Seese Bill. Hence, the State Normal College is not a Department of Ohio University, but a co-ordinate College with its own direct tax levy independent of any levy that may be made from time to time for the support of the College of Arts and Sciences. In 1906 the law was amended so as to provide that all special appropriations for new buildings shall be made to the State Normal College, and all buildings erected since then came to the University through the Normal College. These acts of the General Assembly indicate the state-wide recognition of the permanency of the State Normal College as well as the confidence the Stale has reposed in the character and efficiency of the work done by this institution. During the Summer and Autumn of 1912 a handsome and commodious Train- ing School building will be erected, work having already been begun. This building will cost about $65,000, and the Science Hall is now nearing comple- tion at a cost of $125,000. The State Normal College has already added about $425,000 to the campus in buildings alone, including the above-named buildings, the beautiful Gymnasium, the Domestic Science building, and Ellis Hall. More will follow, and the new departments of the State Normal College, (Manual Training, Agriculture, Domestic Science, and Rural Training) will soon add much more. A practice and demonstration farm for use of the De- partment of Agriculture is an early possibility. The State Normal College was organized in the Summer of 1902 without a studen t, opened September 9, 1902. with 47 students, enrolled a total of 102 the first college year, and the 1 0th year, ending March 18, 1912, enrolled 713 students during the three regular terms, and of the 883 students enrolled in Summer Term of 1911 at least 740 were students in the Normal College. Count- ing out those enrolled m the Summer Term who were also enrolled at some time within the three regular terms, there were about 1 400 different teachers and prospective teachers enrolled in Normal College courses within the year. The courses of instruction lead to diplomas in Elementary Education, Kin- dergarten Education, Agricultural Education, Manual Training, Domestic Sci- ence, Public School Music, Public School Drawing, and to the degree of Bach- elor of Science in Education. The class of 1912 numbers 98, including 21 who will receive the degree of Bachelor of Science in Education and three who will receive the degree of Master of Science in Education. Teachers trained in the State Normal College receive State Certificates valid in any school in the State for four years, and after 24 months of experience they may receive life certificates from the Ohio State Board of School Examiners. These diplomas are accepted by at least one-half of the States of the Union with- out examination. Graduates of the State Normal College are in great demand at good salaries. The courses of instruction compare favorably with those of the best pro- fessional schools in the country, and the graduates of this College are known for their thorough scholarship, their wise training, their culture and refinement, and the high grade of work they are prepared to do for the public. ATIHIEMA S?® 5 P History of Training School The very center of a Normal School is its Training School. A theory of teaching must stand the test of actual practice under normal conditions. The Normal College of Ohio University has maintained a Training School ever since its establishment in 1902. At first this was a very modest school consisting of but three grades, two teachers, and a principal, occupying two rooms in the basement of Ewing Hall. As it grew in size a.-d importance the North Wing of Ellis Hall was added for its use. Soon larger quarters were necessary and the South W ing. somewhat larger than the North, was built. But even this has proved inadequate and the coming year will see the beginning of a well-equipped modern building exclusively for the use of the Training School. The school now covers the work of the eight grades and the Kindergarten, added in 1 908. Students desiring training in High School teaching may obtain it in the Preparatory School. Music and Drawing have been taught from the first, and lately Manual Training and Domestic Science have been added for the seventh and eighth grades. Each of these subjects is under the supervision of the instructors of these departments in the Normal College, and students pur- suing these courses are given practice teaching. After September. 1912. Dr. Matheny. Professor of Nature Study and Elementary Science, will have super- vision over the teaching of these subjects in the Training School. The Training School comprises all the pupils of the portion of the city in which the College is located — about one-third of the city of Athens It is not a small school of selected children, but a school in which real conditions exist, and in which the same problems are to be solved that are found in almost any school. After the studer.t has chosen between Primary and Grammar Grades her course in Observation and Methods is conducted as follows. The class meets with the instructor, who discusses the lesson for the day and the method of pre- senting it. At the close of this lesson in Methods the class is taken directly to the Training School to see an application of these methods in an actual lesson gi en by one of the Critic Teachers. During the second year the student is required to teach, effort being made to adapt the work to her taste and ability A plan for each lesson must be writ- ten in adva-ce and presented to the Critic Teacher. The pupil teacher usually teaches under the supervision of the Critic Teachers and the Training Super- visor, but is sometirres left alone to test her power of discipline. Too much carnot be said in praise of these who are devoting their be-t efforts for the success of the Training School President Ellis has shown his interest in many ways, especially in obtaining funds for its use. Dr. Williams. Dean of the Normal College, co-operates with the School in every way. The guiding hand must be that of a strong, efficient person. Such a one is our Prin- cipal. Miss Emma S. Waite. who has the best interests of the Training School very near her heart. Working shoulder to shoulder with the Principaf are the Critic Teachers who are ever found ready and willing to help the pupil teachers. They are doing a noble work and it is impossible to estimate the influence of such training upon the schools of the future. ?5 RURAL TRAINING SCHOOL ATMEMA Sgl MS Rural Training School The University authorities recognizing the rights and needs of rural teach- ers, expended a large sum of money in fitting up a model school — a real country school. This department was organized in the year 1910. Its purpose is to do for the rural teachers what the regular normal work does for high school and grade teachers. Not only do students learn the theory, but they observe the theories be- ing put into practice. At the head of this branch or normal work is a strong school man, a grad- uate of Ohio University, having had a number of years of successful experience as superintendent of centralized rural schools. Under the management of Prof. J. J. Richeson this work is and will continue to be a success. The modern rural school is situated somewhat more than one-half mile from the University and is easily reached by paved highway. The school consists of two rooms over which are two wide-awake, up-to-date normal graduates. Miss Gross and Miss Buchanan. These teachers are showing that country schools need not be inferior to any, if proper conditions be brought about. In this school are taught the ordinary subjects and the children are instructed in draw- ing, music, domestic science, and manual training. These school rooms are supplied with single, adjustable seats and desks, good black boards, ideal heating and ventilation, pictures, globes, charts, cloak rooms, and last but not least a large number of bright country boys and girls. Anyone visiting this school will be convinced that some good schools exist outside city limits, notwithstanding the adverse criticism so often heard. 87 : £ OF sfe 89 u.

It covers a wide and varied field and includes all forms of public address and the art of the spoken word. In the regular collegiate course the work is taken up in the most practical way possible, in order that college men and women may be fitted to fill larger places in life by being able to express themselves and to impart to others from their store of knowl- edge. Many a well-educated college graduate has utterly failed in life through this very lack of being able to share his learning with others, or to say what he thinks in a persuasive and convincing man- ner. There is no power greater than that of the spoken word. Body and voice are also trained to aid in the expression of the thought. One of the important outgrowths of the work has been the increased interest in debating, which is now very popular at Ohio University. During this last year sixteen were chosen from the class in argumentation to represent the University in intercollegiate debates. Two triangular contests were arranged ; one for men with Otterbein and Wittenberg, the other for women with Otterbein and Muskingum. For those wishing to specialize in literary interpretation and dramatic art, there is a special course arranged, which may be com- pleted in two years. The graduates of this Department are fitted for either teaching or platform work, as they may prefer, and most of those who have graduated are holding responsible positions. Diplomas are conferred by the University upon these graduates. Too much praise cannot be given Prof. H. R. Pierce for his untiring efforts in upbuilding this Department. In this work he has been ably assisted by his talented associate teacher, Miss Mane A.

Department of Civil Engineering The Department of Civil Engineering at Ohio University was established in 1904. It began operations on the third floor of Old West Wing with an enrollment of less than a dozen men. Owing to the increased enrollment, it was shifted from one place to another, until it eventually found permanent quar- ters in the East Wing, where it makes use of the entire third floor, three daught- lng rooms on the second floor and a cement testing laboratory on the first floor. The equipment is all new and complete. The appropriations for the De- partment have always been ample to provide everything necessary in order to keep the equipment adequate to the increased enrollment. The requirements for admission to the Civil Engineering Course are the same as those for admission to the Freshman Class of the College of Liberal Arts. The course covers a period of two years, and is made up of those subjects that will be most helpful to the practical engineer. Many students in the Scientific Course of the University choose their elec- tives from this department. Since the organization of the Department, nearly forty men have completed the course and have found pleasant and profitable positions in their chosen professions. CLASS OF 1912 J. V. Donley H. C.

The purpose of the organization is to familiarize the members with current engineering practices and to accustom them to express their thoughts before bodies of men. All members of the Department of Civil Engineering are eligible. Meet- ings are held bi-weekly, at which a major and a minor paper and current events are presented by students and discussed by the Society. Professors Addicott, Hoover, and Atkinson have on different occasions given interesting talks before the Society. This organization has been especially prominent in athletic circles, partic- ularly at the Civil-Electrical game. Officers for Fall Term: President H. C.

The Mill — Besides the several courses in Physics — Preparatory Physics, one year; Freshman Physics, one year, optional with Freshman Mathematics; ' Sophomore Physics, semester, optional with Chemistry, or Biology, the second semester elective; Junior Physics, which is purely an advanced laboratory course; and other special subjects like Thermodynamics. Wave Theory. Molecu- lar Physics, etc., there is in this Department a special elective group of studies leading to a certificate, and known as the Electrical Engineering Course. This requ.res two years for completion, after meeting the Freshman requirements for admission. It requires Mathematics, two years; English, one year; Commercial Law, one semester; Descriptive Geometry, one year; Civil Engineering, one semester. This is in addition to the Engineering studies proper, including Me- chanical Drawing, Shop Work, Station Practice, each two years; Direct Current Engineering. Alternating Current Engineering, each one year; Mechanics, Stean Engineering, Electrical Calculations, Gas Engineering, Direct Current Labora- tory, Alternating Laboratory, each one semester. The Kind of Flour— The nature of the work and the method of instruction are such that the student develops his highest efficiency as a thinking being and as a productive worker. Nothing in the lessons is taken for granted so far as the basis for it can be gotten at. The highest intellectual efforts of the student are constantly being exacted until he acquires the mental habit of analyzing every fact, or set of conditions put before him. Also in the laboratories, shops and elsewhere, in which the physical skill and mental insight are developed, the same persistent effort is made to avoid routine and mechanical repetition; and to ex- ercise forethought, judgment, and independence of method and thought. As a result of this principle of work and study the independence and initia- tive of the student are developed to the highest degree, the ideal being an engineer whose mind is keen, and original to devise, and his hands intelligently skilled to execute, so that he will be able to take care of himself with credit when thrown into any set of conditions with no guidance outside himself. The success of the product of this course justifies the efforts required to carry out the principle just explained. 77ie Eating of the Pudding— To eat the pudding set before you is not so niuch you may do that out of politeness; but to call for the second piece be- gins to recommend the pudding pretty well. To ask on your next visit for some more like the last you had speaks volumes for both the pudding and the cook Such is the experience with employers of the graduates of the Engineering Course. They repeatedly ask for more like the last you sent us. The graduates them- selves are tried out repeatedly along side those from other institutions and are fully able to hold their own. They become superintendents, foremen, elec- trical engineers, chief engineers, construction men. operators and electrical inspec- tors. They earn salaries varying from $75 to $ I 50 per month. Somebody will be disappointed this year for there are only a few pieces of the pudding left. First come, first served. Ill ATM! Electrical Engineering CLASS OF 1912 As a part of the body of new students that came to Ohio University in the fall of 1910 was a small group of young men who comprised what is known as the Electrical Engineering Class of 1912. The recent increase in the en- trance requirements reduced the number that entered the Freshman class of that year to thirteen. But this class has demonstrated the maxim that quality and not quantity counts, and that thirteen is no longer unlucky. We were soon informed by the upper classmen of the dark future that lay before us in the shape of Fourth Term, and Direct Currents. This warning merely spurred us on to harder effort, and at the end of the Fall Term we had Fourth Term behind us, but since none of the class showed any desire of spe- cializing in this branch of mathematics, we quit as soon as we could. In the Electrical Society our class showed such enthusiasm and aptitude that, for the Winter Term, one of our number, Mr. Davis, was chosen vice president of the Society. The Spring Term brought its woes in the form of Mechanics and Magnetic Calculations. In this latter study it was proven conclusively that an author is greater than his book. We distinguished ourselves in the Stunt Carnival as usual, much to the discomfort of the Civils. That intelligent body of gentlemen, lacking talent of their own, were obliged to borrow a Freshman Electrical to assist them in putting on their stunt. Again quality counts. When the Class came together again in the fall of 1911 we were fewer in numbers but stronger in spirit than before. We well knew the hard work that lay before us, and therefore were ready for it. By Christmas we had met and conquered Alternating Currents and Dynamo Lab. The Winter Term came and passed. We had now come to realize the vastness of our work. The lot of an electrical engineer did not look nearly as much like a bed of roses as when first we entered college halls. Now after two years of faithful work in Old O. U., the Electrical Engi- neering Class of 1912 comes to the close of its career. Its members have shown themselves students in every department in which they have worked. May each future career reflect naught but credit on our Alma Mater. 112 9 t m gs at: assepi y 113 OHIO UNIVERSITY ELECTRICAL ASSOCIATION Motto: Science Rules the Universe. ' ' The Ohio University Electrical Association has been in existence for a number of years. The object of its founding was the advancement of the en- gineering students ' knowledge in the science of elctrical engineering, special at- tention being given to the practical problems that are apt to confront the student after he has taken up the duties of his chosen profession. That this purpose is still appreciated is manifest from the interest taken by its members in keeping the quality of the programs at a high standard. This is brought about largely through the efforts of the senior members of the society. The meetings are held each week of the school year, the programs consisting of a paper on some phase of engineering, followed by a general discussion on the subject and current events. Faculty members of the Department address the club each semester. The value gained from these addresses is not merely the amount of information on the particular subject, but the influence m keeping up the spirit of the society. The Electrical Association always finds a place in the life of the engineer- ing student of the University. It is the wish of the association that through its spirit and influence the student shall be a better student, a better engineer, and a better citizen. 114 v ATM: 115 PUSSpilS ATHEMA ssssiik CO z Id o iik ath: Young Men ' s Christian Association CABINET ROLL General Secretary Harry L.

In October, 1 890, a number of students, feeling that there should be an organization of the Christian young men of the University, met and effected a permanent organization. They were assisted by a number of the faculty for we note the names of Prof. Dunkle, Dr. Hoover, Prof. Evans and Dr. Super as charter members. Since that time the Young Men ' s Christian Association has occupied a peculiar position in our University, being the only organization, since this is a state institution, to look after the moral welfare of the college men. But stating that this is a state institution is not saying that ours is a Godless University. Far from it! For by the co-operation of a Christian faculty of men and women who are leaders in their respective churches, the Young Men ' s Christian Association has assisted in raising the moral standard of our students, not only in the class room, but in various college organizations and on the athletic field. The pioneer cabinet of 1 890 had only five chairs, but since that time chang- ing conditions and increased membership have necessitated adding more depart- ments until the newly appointed cabinet of 1912 contains fourteen members. The department of Music was the last to be added. In pursuance of the plans of previous years cur Association sent 1 4 dele- gates to the Lake Erie Student Conference at Linwood Park. This was the largest delegation representing any college at the Conference. It might add a touch of interest to report that a baseball team selected from our delegation car- ried off the championship pennant. Likewise, O. U. was represented at the Southwest Student Volunteer Convention at Springfield in November, 1911, as well as at the Gospel Team Convention at Delaware in December, 1911. As usual, the newly elected president. Mr. Morton, attended the Presidents ' Train- ing Conference at Ohio State University in March, 1912. It has ever been our policy to send delegates to all meetings that vitally interest Christian Associa- tions, thereby keeping in close touch with the best that is being developed along these lines. One commendable feature of the Y. M. C. A. work is the Conference Loan Fund, which has been derived from the proceeds of the Spring Carnival. At present the outstanding loans amount to several hundred dollars. In a few years the annual returns from these loans will always insure a large delegation of O. U. men at Eaglesmere Conference in Pennsylvania. Another feature worthy of note is the remarkable interest shown by college men in the Friday evening devotional meetings where various topics are opened for discussion by student leaders and members are urged to participate. Fre- quently faculty and out-of-town talent is secured for these meetings. 1 1 is ever the policy of the Association to strive for religious and moral uplift and be a means whereby men become actively affiliated with the church. It is a means to an end but never the end in itself. 1?0 3W at: UJ U z UJ OS UJ u_ Z o u OS UJ D Q O O z 13 121 Y. W. C. A. The Young Women ' s Christian Association, as the name implies, is the link which binds the girls of Ohio University together with a firm, endearing clasp; it is the molding influence which rounds off the edges of the square of ed ucation with its intellectual, physical, social and religious sides into a complete and perfect circle. Membership in this Association, connected as it is with the great Christian Association movement, means more to a girl than can be real- ized, but we feel that the help the Association tries to give is rightly valued and appreciated by the large enrollment of the past year. We feel that the Association has not only the support of the students, but also the faculty of the University and their sympathy and aid we appreciate highly. To make this relationship closer, we chose an Advisory Board from among the lady members of the faculty and wives of members of the faculty which, together with the President and Treasurer of the local Association, or- ganized themselves October 7, 1911, and have proved themselves a great help. The present Board is composed of: Mrs. Chubb, President; Mrs. H. R. Wilson, Secretary; Mary Evans, Treasurer; Miss Ann Hughes, Miss Winnie Williams, Mrs. D. J. Evans, Mrs. H. R. Pierce, Mrs. W. F. Mercer, Mrs. C. M. Copeland, and Ethel Lumley. The connection with the Christian Association movement is best realized by the various conventions held, to which delegates are sent from each Associa- tion. The delegates from the O U. Association to the various conventions of the past year were as follows: Bi-ennial Convention at Indianapolis, Ind. — Elizabeth Murphy and Etta Ayers. Summer Conference at Granville, Ohio — Ethel Clark, Stella Van Dyke, Ethel Boyles and Virginia Crisenberry. Missionary Conference at Springfield, Ohio — Mella Van Meter, Delia O ' Connor, Hazel Reed and Mary Powell. Territorial Conference at Toledo, Ohio — Carrie Ricketts and Mary Evans. The interest in the Mission and Bible study has been evidenced by the en- rollment in the different classes under Y. W. C. A. student management as well as in the classes under collegiate faculty instruction. The devotional meetings have been of high character, some of the special features being the Recognition Meeting in early fall for the new members espec- ially, conducted by the Missionary Committee. The Y. W. C. A. plans to give three social functions a year at which all the girls come together in a social way to become better acquainted and manifest the feeling of hearty co-operation. These consist of a reception in the fall for new girls, a membership banquet in the winter, and a fruit spread in the spring. 122 m 3 ATMEMA A UJ-- 5 o o C « sr 5-3 £ u s.h Su . .2m g.S_ 5 i2 123 AT3HIE: Twilight Recitals A delightful course of Twilight Recitals has again been offered this year under the direction of the Y.

Student Volunteer Band This is the first time in the history of Ohio University that we have had the opportunity of presenting to its students and friends the Student Volunteer Band. This Band was organized during the Fall Term of 1911 by those students who purpose being foreign missionaries. It will be necessary, in order that you may fully understand the nature of our Band, to give you a condensed history of the Student Volunteer Movement for Foreign Missions, of which we are a local Bard. This movement had its origin at Mount Hermon, Mass. in the year 1886. At a Students ' Conference held there at that time, an even hundred students dec ded for the foreign mission- ary work. Dr. John R. Mott the present chairman was one of that number. The Movement spread very rapidly, and so two years later they were organized into what is known now as The Student Volunteer Movement for Foreign Mis- sions, and adopted as its watchword, The evangelization of the World in this generation. Many wonderful things have been accomplished by the Movement since its organization. Some of these have been the holding of several great conferences, and the opening of the way to the organization of the Laymen ' s Missoinary Movement. The Movement has spread to other lands, until it now covers all Protestant Christendom. The greatest contribution the Movement has given is that nearly five thousand students of North America have gone out as Student Volunteers under the missionary societies of the various churches. To become a Student Volunteer one must sign a declaration which reads It is my purpose, if God permit, to become a foreign missionary. Only one Volunteer, Miss Evelyn Adams, has gone out from our University to the foreign missionary field, but may the efforts so far here at O U. be only a beginning of a greater movement for, The evangelization of the World in this generation.

With the addition of the Department of Public Speaking came also the need of such an association. In fact, attempting to teach public speaking without such an organization would be about as efficient as to teach chemistry or physics without a laboratory or apparatus. Thus the Association fills two most important places in the college activities, first as a work-shop for those who are devoting all of their time to studies in the Department of Public Speaking, and second, it offers to other students advantages and opportunities which they cannot secure in the regular literary societies of the University. It has become a well-known fact that anything like proficiency in this art must come from long and persistent labor and practice. It is something to be noted that the men who do the most work in debating and public speaking are always the men who represent the University in Intercollegiate contests. Thus it is readily seen that proficiency in this work, as in any other, comes from a study of methods and the ability to put them into practice before the public. Our Intercollegiate debaters this year are for the affirmative, Lewis H. Miller, Samuel S. Shafer, Clarence A. Matheny, and Herman H. Young as alternate. The negative team is Marshall L. Fawcett, Louis H. Foley, Rollin E. Guttridge, and Virgil Falloon as alternate. The question, That the Initiative and Referendum Should Be Made a Part of the Legislative System of Ohio, will be debated in a triangular meet with Otterbein, Wittenberg and Ohio. Much credit is due Prof. H. R. Pierce for his untiring efforts to make this one of the prominent features of old O U., and we can only hope that the future holds a rich reward for men and women who can present a subject in a forceful, convincing and persuasive manner 131 m ATM! English H g£SS$$g ath: For more than twenty years the English Club has enjoyed a flourishing existence and is without doubt the oldest club connected with Ohio University. There are no records extant showing when and by whom the club was organized, but early in the nineties, under the name of The Columbiad. it had already attained a prosperous condition. Since 1900 the club has been conducted under its present name. At present the English Club is composed of fifteen members, selected from among those students of English who are especially interested in doing original work in short stories and poetry. The club meets once a month at the home of Dean E. W. Chubb. Two or three members appear on each program, reading their own pro- ductions, either stories or poems. Each production is then discussed by the club as to its style, use of words, faithfulness of characteriza- tion, or whatever elements of literary worth it may possess. At the last meeting of each vear each member is allowed to bring a guest, and these favored mortals are permitted at that time to hear the best of the year ' s productions. It is indicative of the character of the productions to note that several of them have appeared in some of the leading magazines of the country. For years the winner of the Emerson Prize Poem Fund has been a member of the English Club. Every winning poem and short story in the annual inter-society contests has been written by a member of the club. Without a doubt, the members of the club are a talented lot of individuals, but you do not have to prove it — they admit it. 137 Ipg lgs atm: The Booklovers ' Club On Wednesday afternoon, October 18, 1911, several young men met with Dr. Hiram R. Wilson lor the purpose of organizing a literary club. This plan was duly carried out, and The Booklovers ' Club became one of the permanent organizations of the University. Its purpose is to enter into a more exhaustive study of the great thinkers and writers than the limitations of the class-room af- ford. Each member must appear upon the program once during the year. He is given a subject early m the year for special investigation, the results of which he brings before the Club at one of its regular monthly meetings. Usually a general discussion of his subject follows. The Club is of recent birth, to be sure, but it is a precocious child. The merrbeis have taken a deep interest in the work assigned them and have received great benefit from their careful research. It is the hope of the organization that each one may know his special subject thoroughly. The number of members is limited to sixteen. This enables each one to take a more active part than he could if the membership were larger. Dr. Wilson, himself a member of the Club, is its adviser. His assistance has been of inestimable value in many ways. Samuel S. Shafer is President of the Club, and Theron W. Ward is Sec- retary. The following is the list of the members with the subjects discussed through- out the year: Dr. H. R. Wilson Rare Old Books. I. H. Comstock The Text of Shakespeare. C. E. Stailey Dramas of Browning. H. O. Tidd The Philosophy and Essays of Bacon. S. O. Welday Dante ' s Divine Comedy. C. A. Matheny John Stuart Mill. W. R. Blumenthal Spencer ' s First Principles. C. E. Skinner Charles Lamb. H. M.

In dieser annemlichen Weise lernt er sowohl sie zu verstehen als auch zu sprechen, was schheszlich doch das Endziel des Lernens einer Sprache bleibt. Da die Gesellschaft sich nur aus solchen usammensetzt, die sich schon als ernste und erfolgreiche Studenten erwiesen haben und es auch zur zeit sind, was der wachsenden Zahl und der mangelnden Raum- hchkeit wegen, in diesem Jahre notwendig wurde, so dient ihnen der Verein als ein Antrieb zu besserer Arbeit in ihren deutschen Stunden. Folglich hat sich die Zahl der Fhrenschuler, d. h. solcher, die hoch in ihren Klassen stehen, seit der Verein als Sporn gedient hat, in merkwurdiger Weise vergroszert. Wahrend fruher die Zahl solcher Fhrenschuler nur klein war, vielleicht hochstens em Viertel, betragt sie jetzt fast zwei Dnttel von den Studenten der hoheren KJassen oder elwa sech- zig Mitgleider aus ca. durchschitthch ein hundert und (unf vorgeschrittenen deutschen Studenten.

It is purely a student organization, although the valuable advice of Doctor Bentley and Professor Morton is gen- erally proffered at all times and is always welcome. The general plan of the meetings is to have a major and minor paper followed by current events by two members. The officers for this year are: R. G. Webber, President; J. R.

They have been very interesting and up to the usual high standard. At one of the meetings Miss Gaffner was present and gave a very interesting talk on the Froebel Pilgrimage which she attended last summer. On this Pil- grimage all of the leading Kindergartens abroad were visited. Kindergarten Club Officers: President Kate Dover Vice-President Ethel Lumley Secretary Lillian Baker Treasurer Ruth Covert 155 156 Teachers ' Club The interest in the Teachers ' Club, which started out with so much promise in the Fall of 1910, has in no way diminished. It does not simply exist, but it lives, and has been an inspiration to many. In the busy college life, with its numerous clubs, literary societies, and social affairs, those who are interested in things that are helpful to the teacher feel that the hour given to this Club each week is time well spent. The aim of the organization is mutual helpfulness and interchange of ideas — the work being especially valuable to young teachers. The social side is usually limited to one I unction a year. Some very excellent addresses have been given by Dean H. G. Williams, Dr. W. F. Mercer, Dr. W. L. Card. Di. H. R. Wilson. Dr. W. F. Copeland, Prof. E. M. Mills, Prof. J. J. Richeson. and Prof. F. C. Landsittel. At other times the members of the Club have presented some of the prom- lems that confront the teachel, the discussions calling forth many practical sug- gestions. The most important service the Teachers ' Club renders is through the open- forum feature. Here teachers are kept informed on the course of progress in the educational world, and some of the great unsolved problems engage the attention of the student to such an extent as to arouse a genuine and lasting interest in the cause of public education and in the profession of teaching. The participation in the programs often proves the most valuable means of unfolding a teacher s hidden resources and helping her to discover herselt. The meetings are held every Thursday afternoon at 3:30. Interest in the work of the teacher is the only qualification necessary for membership. I he Club now numbers seventy-two. The officers are: President Jennie F. Dowd Vice-President Jay G. Hickox Secretary-Treasurer Mary J. Morns Executive Committee: Fall Term Gertrude Bartlett Leanna Shadduck Jay C. Hickox Winter 1 erm Theron W. X aid Amy Evans Marjorie Cattell 157 The Story Club The Story Club which makes its initial appearance in this Annual is here to stay. It is a prospective law club named after the famous associate justice — Joseph Story. This organization was founded at Ohio University on October I 4, 1 9 1 I . Its members are those students who have definitely decided to follow the legal profession as a life work. Meetings are held every Saturday evening for the discussion of present-day problems and legal questions of an ele- mentary nature. Every other meeting consists of a lecture — on a legal topic — given by some professor of the institution or a practising attorney. The club was organized in order to develop our legal knowledge and for- ensic ability, and to enable us to become better acquainted with parliamentary practice. ROLL OF MEMBERS. M. D.

It grew out of the organi- zation known as the Ohio University Union, which was an effective organization in most respects, but which lacked a definite completeness of many ideas cherished and set forth by the Phrenocon. By the movement of a similar organization existing in Miami University, delegates were brought together in the spring of 1911 and a constitution was agreed uopn for the organization of the National Phrenocon Association, thus merging the two organiza- tions of Miami and Ohio University into one national body. The spirit has been taken up by many colleges in Ohio and elsewhere. The young men belonging to this Association strive for the highest attainments in religious, social, scholastic and athletic circles, and at the same time foster a true spirit of fratermsm. Up to date the activities of this chapter have been commend- able and encouraging in every detail. Besides having some of the strongest men in the University as members, new ones are manifesting the spirit and increasing the number of accepting the name Phrenocon. 166 H IJ Win H H ■ m m Hk ' fl a v . r , r LliJiiii -l 167 fg $k at: oc HB ' v ' f l - ■ W z 3n. fl 1 mL i KTH 1 ;•. ,, wrs J 1 1 , , F ' ' 1 C9 VTT? ! i m 168 g§g ! g. atm: The National Phrenocon Association Ohio University Chapter.

Hinaman is now in charge of athletics at Ohio University. After the closing incident with the unlamented Doc Freeman , Jim Wood was dispatched into the outer world with instructions to get a coach, and from Case he secured — Hin- aman. He came among us, square-jawed and straightforward, and from the first day he landed in Athens he has identified him- self heart and soul with our athletic ambitions and worked untiringly for their realization. Too much credit cannot be given him for the splendid showing which was made in football in 1911. Coach Hinaman drilled into the men a thorough knowledge of the science of football, inspired them with the unshakable valor of the game, and, more than all this, instilled in them the finer principles of true athletics — fair play, hard fighting, and courtesy. Handicapped with all new material, he developed a basketball team which came within an ace of defeating Western Reserve at the close of the season. Athletics at Ohio are secure as long as he is in charge, and a good season of baseball can be safely predicted. One of the most noticeable changes which the preceding year has wit- nessed has been the increase in spirit shown by the student body in athletic af- fairs. Although by voluntary consent students no longer receive admission to athletic contests on their A. L. E. tickets, there has been no apparent falling off in the attendance. The more spectacular outbursts of this new enthusiasm have been the classy rooting at all the contests under the direction of Cheer Leader Fawcett and the celebrations after the Kenyon and Marietta football games — bonfires, cheers, songs, speeches, and everybody happy. An innovation in the management of athletics is the Athletic Council composed of faculty and stu- dent members. One word in closing about a man who is too often forgotten — Faculty manager of athletics, George C. Parks. He has given us good schedules and his forethought and business ability have carried us through without a deficit. 210 Captain Ralph H. Lewis, Buck . Fullback The man who came back — came back to lead Ohio through one of the best seasons football has seen in many a long day. kicked the goal that won the Marietta game. Great old mud-horse; starred against Wittenberg in that great naval encounter. Clyde O. Gibson. Gibby , Halfback. Cap- tain for 1913. He was the recognized star of the team, and it was a delight to see him play. He was the best ground gainer on the team, and scored the most of Ohio ' s touchdowns. With the peerless Gibson to lead and inspire, next year ' s team is sure to succeed. Ralph C. Kenney. Fritz , Center. The one who was born with a foot (bawl) in his mouth. One of the gamest men on the team. Although he played in the cen- ter of the line, he was a wonder at pulliny down the runner in any part of the field. In the Marshall game he broke up play after play, Ohio will be a long time finding the equal of Ralph C. Kenney. A very popular member of the Strollers Club. be- ing chairman of the committee on the reg- ulated lighting of the campus. Dwight A. Riley. Mike. Right Tackle. One of Ohio ' s veteran linesmen, and as dependable as the day is long. At Mari- etta he condescended to show an old rival Fossil Drumm a few points of the game. Noted for a sweet, innocent smile, generally followed by a request for Honest Scrap. 211 SP S AT Mostyn L. Jones, Bump , Quarterback. He played a hard, heady, nervy game. A bright shining light of the ruddy, zig- zag lightning kind in the running-back-punh department of the game. Although handi- capped in weight, he outplayed many a heav- ier man through sheer grit and speed. A fancy warbler in the quartet. Gilbert R. Micklethwaite, Si , Left Tackle One of the most steady, faithful men on the team who worked unflaggingly for its best interests. A good man on both offense and defense. Member of a mutual admi- ration society limited in membership to one each from the boys ' and girls ' Glee Clubs Louis Long, Big Long , Left Guard. A lower of strength on the defense and a Hercules on the offense. This was his first year on the Varsity, and he will undoubtedly be one, if not the best, of the guards in the state next fall. NX ' hen not engaged in foot- ball, the reverend ' s chief occupation is man- aging ladies ' church bazaars. Benjamin W. Millei. Ben , Left End. One of the surprises of the season. He put up a very classy article in the football line, his specialty being to get away with the Icrward passes for long gains. His abil- ity was recognized by all who saw him. Wears his laurels very modestly. 212 va $U £B atm: Buren R. Shields, Pockets . Right End and Tackle. One of the big men on the team, and strong on the defense. With his graduation this spring Ohio will lose one of her best dl-arcund athletes. A great fusser among the feminmes. Edgar E. Bean, Ned , Fullback. He showed wonderful improvement dur- l.i the season, and at its close was one of the brilliant players in the back field. He put up a great game at Marietta and truly merited the universal praise which he received for it. The village cut-up. Sam Renshaw, Little Sammy, Left Half- back. He was counted on to be one of our best players, and as long as he was in the game he surely delivered the goods and lived up to expectations. In the West Virginia game, probably his best, he was injured too ser- iously to finish out the season. Owns a very fetching grin. (Note: The girls claim it ' s a smile.) Eugene J. Voigt, Dutch , End. He played a good, steady game, and will ■nake fine material for next season ' s team, bameus for his good humor. Willis is wil- ling. 213 James H. White, Jim , Guard. This was his first season at football, and he proved a faithful performer. He soon showed that he possessed the fundamentals of a football player — nerve, steam, and speed, and with another season should dr- elop into a star player. Boasts of an imper- ishable good nature and a one-focus attach- ment for the fair sex. George R. Burrell, Mother ' , Guard. He played a good, nervy game, the serene tenor of which nothing seemed able to shat- ter. Very fond of chestnuts. Zera G. Taylor, Zerry , Guard. Taylor ' s playing cannot be classed as of the sensational order, but he did good con- sistent work whenever called upon. A slick one from the oil country. Roger J. Jones, Rooster , Quarterback. He was our best man in the kicking de- partment, and got away with some excellent punts, especially in the Marietta game. In the Marshall game he made one of the ner- viest tackles seen on Ohio field, and saved us from a certain touchdown. A very debonair gentleman of leisure. 211 rMi wsS ATis NA- asasati © a -L - ' |2 . 215 [A S li® Football Scores, 1911 October 7 — At Delaware; Ohio 0, Wesleyan 10.

In addi- Jtion, they faced the strorgest teams against which Ohio has yet been pitted, as can easily be verified by a glance at the schedule. However, a machine was produced by Coach Hinaman, which was full of the vim and determination which fought to the last ditch. Those who attended the ganes were treated to a series of clean, fasi games. The last one with Western Reserve was the most exciting, Ohio losing by one unlucky goal 1.1 the last thirty seconds. Miller at center captained the team very well. His work was of the stel- lar variety, and in several of the games he was our chiel point-gainer. He also presided on the foul line in the majority cf cases, and bom there tossed many a pretty basket. In the Wittenberg game he was seven field goals ahead of the next man, and also netted us three points on fouls. Shively at right forward played a whirlwind game His light weight was more than made up for by his lightning speed and skill. He gave some amazing exhibitions of dodgirg and showed hew rruch territory one man can cover. Bethel, the other forward, did some very fine basket shooting, frequently making the most field goals for us. In the Wesleyan game his ability to locate ll e basket was especially marked. Gibson starred at left guard. His specialty was capturing the ball and tearing down the rloor with it, and, if he got reckless, winding up by tossing a basket. His teammates, who should know his ability if anyone does, have shown their confidence in him by electing him captain for next year. Nutting, right guard, put up a fine, scrappy game. Determination stood out on him as thick as bristles on a bulldog. ' Nut played great defense, be- sides tossing a basket now ard then for good luck. 217 218 gpg @feg ATHEMA tg g Basketball Scores January 6 — At Athens; Ohio 14. Alumni 17.

However, lack of harmony on the team was | t not one of them. j0 - : The pitching staff, composed of Knight, — Wood, Kenney. and Griner, were good men to bank on, but owing to an imperfect work- out at the beginning of the season none of them struck their real pace until the last few games. Wood pitched his best game against the Alumni, winning it 6 to 5. rvnight pitched great ball all season, but at times was poorly supported, especially at Ma rietta. Kenney surprised even his admirers by pitching three whirlwind innings in each of the Wooster games. Griner never really got into the game, but showed good form when we crossed bats with the Ohio Medics. Roger Jones played a consistent game at first, and especially starred in sacrifice hitting. Captain McCorkle held down the second sack, and, on the whole, played good ball, although undoubtedly he was playing out of his real place. Beckley. who was captain-elect for this year, was our star infielder. He played a brilliant game at short, and was generally certain to get on the sacks. Nutting, the popular third sacker, played fine games at Marietta and against Wooster, and was also a reliable batter. The receiving end of the battery was composed of Blythe and Kilbury, both of whom, although admittedly playing out of their natural places, did good service. Flood, who performed in right garden, was a fine fielder, but was most fa- mous for home runs. Stailey did not strike his gait until late in the season, and then developed a speciality for three baggers, finishing with a batting average of .333. Tewksberry played an errorless game in left garden. Starr made a valuable addition to the team, getting into the last few games. His work at second was excellent, and his batting average was .250. Sharp started off with a great record at the bat, but only played in a few games. 221 :.ema Sig tSB ; : 22 Baseball Line-Up, 1911 Pitchers C. K. Knight, L. S. Woad. R. C. Kenney, H. G.

Cap- tain Strait of the 1911 team was largely re- sponsible for this awakening, and for the or- ganization of systematic training which has since been carried out. Several meets were held last year, namely, an indoor meet with Denison March 4: outdoor with Kenyon. April 11; Otterbein, May 6; Denison, May 20. We were also represented in the Big Six meet at Columbus by Strait. Fry, Shields, and Gillilan. Shields was our strongest point-winner, and in the Otterbein meet carried off the honors. An indoor class meet is held in the winter term. The Sophomores won in 1912, and Cole, Freshman, secured the most points, 8J 2 , while Cooperrider Sophomore, was a close second. This meet brought out some very promising material for the regular track team this spring. A. W. Hinaman is coach of the 1912 team and L. R. Fry is captain Captain Fry is our long distance man. and one of oui sure winners. In the winter meet at Denison this year he won the two mile run, and incidentally b.oke their gym record with 1 1 min. flat. Most of last year ' s men are still in school and with the interest shown by captain, coach, and candidates, a good team should be developed. When one speaks of track and field there is always one personage who comes to mind— Jimmy Osmond. You ' ve all heard that joke about Jimmy go- ing over the track with a carpet sweeper, but if you tell it to one of the track men. besides the smile provoked there is a genuine feeling of gratitude that goes out to James K. Osmond for giving us one of the best fields in the state. 225 |Pg tP$S AT2UEMA 3g § 226 l g PSS ATMEMA SSl g Track Team, 1912 Coach Arthur W. Hinaman Captain Lester R. Fry Manager George W.

A face with features remarkably reg- ular but plentifully besprinkled with freckles, golden-brown, which seemed to vie with each other for the most prominent and elevating position on the end of her nose. Hair as black as midnight, invariably combed back tightly in two straight pigtails. For Aunt Jane preferred beauty of character to charms of per- sonal appearance. Great black eyes as quick to flash with merriment as with fire. Her dress, quite as invariable as the style of hair-dressing and quite as expressive of simplicity, was a rainbow plaid with a long straight waist and a long straight skirt. In fact the general impression was long and straight. And this was Sue. Fortunately or not, as the case may be, Sue was left an orphan at the age of five and after having been critically examined and tested and questioned and thumped by her Aunt Jane, who all the time had a presentment that she was as- suming a dreadful responsibility, she was finally deposited on a lonely farm among the hills of West Virginia with her two maiden aunts. And there under the direct supervision of Aunt Jane, and the less critical though far more invigorating influ- ence of Aunt Harriet, she grew up like a mountain daisy. And Sue was a daisy. And she was a terrible disappointment to her puritan aunt ' s notions of how any young girl ought to carry herself. Not that she was lacking in the card- inal virtues. She was generous. For had she not given Benny Lee a whole apple pie, picked up by chance, as it were, from the kitchen table, where it had been set to cool? And she was obedient. For had she not dutifully made another face at Deacon Kent when Aunt Jane, catching her the first time, had said, Just let me see you do that again, Susan. And she wasn ' t lazy. Why how many millions of times had her aunt wished heartily that Sue would not be quite so active. No. In all these admirable qualities she was perfect. Then what was it that had lead Aunt Jane to declare time and again that the hope of Susan ' s salvation was a relic of the past? Why Susan was a tom-boy. There were glaring examples to prove it for she never had the grace to try to conceal her fault and day after day it had developed in the very face of Sunday School, home training, and Rev. Allen ' s splendid sermons. And what made it harder to en- dure was Aunt Harriett ' s attitude. While Aunt Jane scolded and threatened and predicted, Aunt Harriet stood, hands on hips and laughed until her sister steadfastly believed her possessed of an evil spirit. Now Benny Lee lived on the next farm and being a lad of leisure and of good intent, he always helped Sue drive the cows down to the barn where the two aunts waited with milk-pails and stools; for Aunt Jane was what Benny confidently labeled a tight-wad and insisted on doing the chores herself. ?38 atme: One evening as they waited thus and Aunt Jane, in her usual role as Sybil, was mercilessly revealing to Harriet the dire fate of their unpromising niece, she was suddenly and without ceremony or warning swept into space, and not too gracefully or gently deposited quite a distance from her original position. When she recovered her poise mentally and physically, he. ' astonished gaze fell upon the fast retreating forms of Benny on old Brindle and Sue on old Red, doing a bareback race down the hill with a determination and a perfect joy in the dif- ficulties of the performance that would have put a trained circus rider to shame. And Harriet laughed. Yes, she laughed. Arms akimbo, head thrown back, utterly unconscious of any injury, and Aunt Jane ' s feelings at least were injured almost beyond repair, she laughed iust as she had when for one of Sue ' s most choice misdemeanors she had chased her through the orchard, disgracing herself forever by climbing the tree after the young culprit who perched her nimble frame on a limb too feeble to support her jolly aunt ' s avoirdupois. And last winter hadn ' t Aunt Harriet saved the egg money to buy Susan a new sled in spite of Aunt Jane ' s remonstrances and prophecies? And then driving past the school-house one day with Mrs. Deacon Kent, the weekly bulletin for the Snowville Aid Society, were they not, with the exception of Harriet of course, horrified to see Susan, instead of sitting up straight like a lady, give a jump and a piercing shriek and landing dorsal side up on that sled, come tearing down the hill regardless of elevations and depressions in the lay of the land, amid shouts of admiration and encouragement from the youthful spectators and Benny ' s voice above the rest cry- ing, Sue ' s got the record. And Sue ' s punishment when she reached home was also a record breaker. And so matters had gone on and Sue had gone on and now she had reached the adorable age of sixteen, had graduated from the village school and to Aunt Jane ' s amazement, had secured a certificate and a position to teach in the district school four miles from home. Susan a teacher! The very idea caused Aunt Jane ' s facial expression for once to take on the semblance of a smile. But again the oracle predicted falsely, for Sue did teach and she loved it. Four miles she walked every morning and four miles home again every evening. How she loved to set out on a crisp winter morning when the snow fairly creaked under her firm step and all around her the world, her world of hills and trees and fields, lay passive under a mass of soft white flakes ! And who knew or cared when, with Aunt Jane at a safe distance, she accepted the proffer of a sled ride down the hill in winter or in summer climbed an apple tree for an apple, too high to reach and too obstinate to be conquered by a shaking. Coming home one afternoon, Sue met chubby little Joe with his sled just at the top of the hill. The old desire was aroused within her, the fierce longing for one last ride in the good old tom-boy fashion. Seizing the sled, with never a thought of Aunt Jane or the dignity of a school-mistress, away she sped down the hill, coming to a stop just in front of the barn door. Then it was that a groan from within suddenly stemmed the tide of her exultation. Aunt Jane must have seen her! How could she have been so thoughtless? Flinging open the barn door she ran in and found her Aunt lying in a heap on the floor. She lifted her head and terrified at the white face, tried to get her on her feet. Real- izing that she could not manage such a burden alone, she rushed to the house and almost dragged poor Aunt Harriet to the scene of disaster. Together they car- ATini. ' TUT ' iSl S l ried Aunt Jane, now unconscious, to the house. hat was to be done? A doc- tor must be had and no telephone, no one near to send. No one but Sue. She must go herself. Running to the barn, she bridled old Dolphin and springing on his back, away they sped down the road at a rate that would have surprised the lazy beast could he have seen himself. But Sue wasn ' t thinking of Dolphin, not even of his marvelous display of speed, unprecedented as it was. She thought only of Aunt Jane. Her entrance into Snowville was somewhat shocking to the villagers to say the least, but she finally succeeded in arousing the sleepy old doctor to a sense of the seriousness of the situation and after seeing him actually on the road, she sprang on her own horse and again they sped home at a pace that was strictly against his principles. Aunt Jane ' s injuries proved very serious but fortunately not fatal but only repeated arguments of Aunt Harriet and the testimony of the sick woman her- self could convince Sue that paralysis and not her own wild escapade had caused the accident. Some days later, sitting at the bedside. Sue suddenly saw a mental moving picture of herself astride old Dolphin racing down the road. Now the picture of herself astride old Dolphin, riding horseback, wasn ' t so novel even if it was unladylike. But old Dolphin racing! The idea was so ludicrous that she laughed, but the sound of her own laugh in the quiet room startled her and she turned to look at Aunt Jane. She was ashamed to tell why she had laughed. Aunt Jane would think her so foolish. And to know that her niece had ridden bareback clear to Snowville and had passed Deacon Kent and his pious wife on the road, for Mrs. Kent had kindly spread the information at the Aid Society, would without doubt prove fatal to Aunt Jane. But the questioning gray eyes demanded an explanation. With lowered eyes Sue confessed her guilt, too truthful even to omit details. Susan, said her aunt, if you hadn ' t taken that sled ride, you wouldn ' t have passed the barn and I might have lain there an hour longer, and if you hadn ' t jumped on old Dolphin without ceremony, the doctor might have come too late. Susan, after all, perhaps there is such a thing as a lady-like tom-boy. E.A.M. 240 ATMEMA 3§9 9 ts es e b The Dream of the Sandal Tree In the tangled heart of a wooded isle. Away in a tropic sea, Where the summer suns forever smile. There grew a sandal tree. When day leapt forth like a living flame Out of the restless sea — NX ' it h the crimson flash of morning came — This dream to the sandal tree. O, I shall dwell in my island bright, Caressed by the ocean breeze, Where the fire-fly ' s light illumes the night Near coral tinted seas! Where the air is heavy from jasmine bowers. And the orchid lifts her head, Where the cereus fair, the queen of flowers. Sleeps on a lotus bed. Where a tropic bird with plumage bright Rests on my moveless bough; A nightingale to the amorous night Carols her fondest vow. But when leaden sheets of fire and rain Obscure the yellow moon, I ' ll wave my boughs and revel again In the breath of the mad typoon. O ' I will dwell in my passion land And drink me deep of joy! For there ' s none to lift a careless hand. Or my happy dream destroy. ' ' 211 f m But there came no more the dream at morn. The sandal had supped with pain; For an iron hand rts heart had torn, And cleaved its satin vein. And then ' twas cleft in pieces fine. And sent o ' er the silver seas. Far from the land of palm and vine And its life of wanton ease. But O, the scent of the sandal wood Was sweet as the breath of myrrh. Or some fair field-lily that might have stood At the door of The Sepulcher! And the smallest piece of the sandal wood The finest fragrance bore. And it was borne o ' er the farthest sea And through a cathedral door. And to them who would list in aisle or nave. From its place at the altar low, The sandal wood its story gave. And its dream of long ago. — Bessie M. Gorslene. 242 ATHENA 9§9$!8B8B Sherlock Holmes Comes to Ohio University From the English Club. The voice of Sherlock Holmes came to me sharply through the night air. Hurry, Watson, a bite of breakfast and we are off. I had not seen my fnend so excited since he had ferreted out the Paris murderers, some months before. We had but stepped into his new air-ship and shot out into the dark- ness when Holmes handed me a cablegram to read by the light of his glowing night lantern. It was very brief — Athens, Ohio. Mr. Sherlock Holmes, London, Eng. Help save remaining elms and professors ' good names. Faculty. Holmes, I said, that ' s the sort of cablegram you would expect a college faculty to send. What do they mean? As Holmes answered, the roar of the breakers and the twinkling light of Gravesend Lighthouse beneath, showed that we were well started on our journey across the great Atlantic. I hardly thought you would grasp that, Watson, but evidently valuable elm trees belong- ing to that college have been destroyed and probably some of their professors have been accused of the deed. But there is nothing we can do until morning, when possibly the New ork papers will throw some light on the matter. The first streaks of dawn were in the sky, when our air ship drew alongside a Hud- son River ferry boat and Holmes seized a Herald. Little news for us here, Watson ; one little paragraph, that I shall read to you — Athens, Ohio. Sev- eral historical elm trees, pride of Ohio University, ruthlessly destroyed. Two professors of the University are suspected. Whole community aroused over the affair. In profound thought Holmes remained with his eyes dreamily fixed up- on this paragraph, until our air-ship had crossed the Ohio River, thundered into the valley of the Hocking river and lightly settled upon a bold promontory over- looking the city of Athens. In a few moments time. Holmes hastily examined the half dozen ruined elm trees, which were part of a row extending the width of the campus, announced his presence and demanded the facts in the case. A local police officer hastily stepped out from the crowd which was fast gathering about the world famous detective and gave us his statement of the affair. On the morning of the day previous an early passerby had noticed the bark completely stripped from the trunks of the elm trees. This row of elm trees was very valuable and the whole community was aroused lest the outrage might be continued and more trees ruined. Holmes inquired. Had any one been seen about the grounds the night the deed was committed? Yes, a man in his shirt sleeves was seen going into the Campus, but nothing further was heard of him. Very clearly stated, Mr. Officer; what steps have you taken to apprehend the offender? Imme- diately, we got out the bloodhounds and had some success with them, sir. They seemed to take up the scent immediately and ran to a pile of partly corrected history examination papers, tied up with some sheets of music. Mr. Holmes inquired: I suppose, Mr. Officer, upon these substantial grounds you suspect this despicable deed to have been done by some professor of history who also 213 atm.: has use for sheet music? Well, we think there is some reason in thinking so, Mr. Holmes. Very possible, very possible, officer, any one else suspected? You will notice, sir, that the tracks of one man who chopped at this tree in removing the bark, are some two feet away from the tree and behind one of those tracks was part of a page of a rare Greek book; conclusions of course, sir, are that the man could not get close to the tree because he is fat and that he is in close touck with Greek literature. Thank you, Mr. Officer, you have been very diligent to involve two men. As Holmes left the crowd and rapidly neared one of the large buildings, I ventured, No wonder these college people are so worried about the reputa- tions of these professors. Tommy-rot whispered the great detective, That officer hasn ' t accom- plished a thing. Take the case he has against the fat man; foolishness, Wat- son; rank foolishness: a man as fat as that couldn ' t do a hard night ' s work, such as this was, if his life depended upon it. I hadn ' t thought of that, I answered, but surely they have something on that history professor. Noth- ing to it, Watson, nothing to it ; those papers couldn ' t have belonged to him. In all my vast experience never have I seen a profound student of history and a musician combined; a man may be one or the other, but not both. Yes, Holmes, I answered, but the people here seem to think that such is the case. Wonderful, Watson, wonderful; some day we must take a day off and make a special trip to see the gentleman. Holmes in his impetuous manner, had pushed his way into the office of the main building, passed through a group of much perturbed college officials and hurriedly grasped a telephone. Hello, hello, is this the State Hospital? This is Sherlock Holmes, of London, England. Mr. Superintendent, have you a patient who has mysteriously acquired some badly blistered hands? You have? Good. He was away all of night before last, wasn ' t he? Yes, yes, I thought so. Thank you. Gentlemen, said Sherlock Holmes, rising and addressing the faculty members and trustees gathered about him. The wretch is found. The blame of this dastardly deed rests upon one of the present inmates of the Asylum; the honor of your institution and brother professors is preserved; the safety of your remaining beautiful trees is assured; Good day. As we neared the air-ship, Holmes was kind enough to relieve my tremendous curiosity as to how he had so easiiy located the miscreant. As usual, you missed the most important clue, Watson; the fact that a man without a coat should go about those trees on the night of the outrage, a very cold night, you remember, showed plainly that he was not in his right mind and acting under a delusion. For all we know, Wat- son, he may have iniured those trees because of some schoolboy grudge against McGuffey. With that point established, the remainder was easy — of course the man would have blistered hands, and the Asylum was the only place to expect to find a crazy man with blistered hands. Well, here we are my good fellow. Just an hour since we left cur ship. And as the huge engines began to throb These new conveniences such as telephones and air-ships, make our work much easier. Watson, thap in the old Baker street days. — Raymond M.
