It was under the leadership of Professor Chapin until 900. when it was taken over by Dr. William F. Mercer, who continues at its head. When the department was organized the school was small and had meager funds, as a consequence it had a slow growth for several years. As the college increased in numbers of students, funds were supplied for the normal growth of the department until, at present, more than six- hundred students receive instruction in the subjects offered each vcar Year after year equipment and teaching force have been added until the department is well supplied with both for the courses offered. A new laboratory in Physiology has been operating for the past two years under the direction of Assistant Professor Emmett Rowles. This year a lab- oratory for Anatomy has been added and is under the direction of Assist- ant Professor Rush Elliott. Bacteriology is under the direction of Instructor Carl A. Frey. The special field of the head of the department is Histology and Embryology and Neurology. All the men referred to above have done and are doing special gradu- ate work in their lines. Mr. Rowles did graduate work in the University of Minnesota. Mr. Elliott, in Cornell University. University of Michi- gan, and Ohio State University. Mr Frey. in Cornell University and Ohio State University. There are now more than one hundred Pre-Medic students and a large number of students looking forward to graduate work in other lines cf Biology, as well as the large number of students in general subjects of Biology.

College. 10 15 Henry Fletcher Scott Illinois College. 1896 University of Chicago, 1904 HE Department of Classical Languages and Literatures was formed in 1921 by a combination of the Department of Greek and Latin which had previously been maintained separately. Pro- fessor Hill came to the University in 1920 as Professor of Greek. The combination of the two departments was effected during the follow- ing year and Professor Scott was added to the teaching staff. The Dafydd J. Evans Prize is awarded annually for merit in this Department. Department of Drawing and Painting Marie Louise Stahl RT is self expression; writing is self expression: music is self expression. Anyone wishing to express himself by any of these mediums must learn that language. A teacher can teach the language and inspire the student, but only God can make an artist, a poet, a musician. This Department seeks to teach the language of art. and to teach appreciation of works of art by the use of numerous reproductions. Also it has each year a loan exhibition of original works by noted artists. Art has arrived in America. An amazing number of artists are producing interesting works. Men of wealth are giving their millions to buy these, works and to build museums: colleges are requiring the study, since those who are not wise enough to choose must have it thrust upon them for their own food. Elie Faure. a noted French art historian, says: If I wish to know anything about a people, past or present. I study their art. We study it then from the historical point of view. This involves not only the effect but the cause. We study it from the aesthetic, that we may appre- ciate and enjoy: from the practical, that we may have the trained eye and hand to express ourselves. Art is involved with every phase of the life of men — with his religion, not merely because the artist chooses a subject from the Bible or story, but because art expresses the spiritual state of man. It is involved with his everyday life and with his love of nature. If you are not in the procession you arc behind the times. Art has arrived in America. 26 3s TWENT THE Department of English Edwin Watts Cm i i I in D Detm of the College ol Liberal Vrts. Professor ol English Literature A. B.. Lafayette, 1887 A. M..

The Public, has the belief that a college graduate ought to know bow to speak and write his [ Q native language, since that ' s the language he is likely to use more than any other, and that by taking a course in English Composition he ' ll attain clearness and fluency in his mother tongue — Tis a consummation devoutly to be wished. So all Freshmen take English Composition, and all instructors in English groan and sweat. — falling back again on Mr. Shakespeare. — as they patiently red ink the disjecta, membra. the mangled fragments, strewn thick as the old-named leaves of Yallombrosa on the pages of Freshmen themes. So when the sad instructor is the saddest and the maddest and falls into his most pessimistic mood, he cries with Omar: With them the seed ol wisdom did 1 sow And with my own hands wrought to make it gi And this was all the Harvest that 1 reaped, — 1 ain ' t learned nothing what Id ought to know But that ' s when our instructor is dyspeptic. In his gayer hours he rejoices in the choice spirits who choose his electives, — those sweet- scented, light-giving courses that exhale sweetness and radiate light: courses that are as attractive to the saving remnant as the honeysuckle is to the bee and the flame to the moth These courses range from Chaucer to Robert Frost, from Shakespeare to Shaw, from Fielding to Galsworthy.

Professional courses in commerce emphasize the individual point of view in an examination of problems of business. Economics examines them from the public point of view. The latest assumption is to promote economic welfare. The department aims to acquit students with Methods of Economic Analysis and with such information about the economic organization as every good citizen should have.

After two years of elementary and inter- mediate German, a course in the Survey of German Literature may be taken as a basis for later excursions into various rich fields: or if the student ' s interest lies chiefly in some branch of science. he may take a course in Scientific German as a fit preparation for later research. A German Club has been organized- At the meetings this year German is being spoken. German games played. German music heard. German current events related, and short German dialogues of excerpts from longer German plays are being presented. Anv student is eligible to this club who has completed at least one year of German and has graded A or B. The club meets the third Thursday of each month at the home of Mrs. Matthews. 28 NINETEEN T vVE NTY SEVEN HE ATHENA Department of History Wit Ml R C. HARRIS. Ph. D. Professor of European History Ph.

As a result, the Department of History has placed special stress on the study of European History, leaving the discussion and study of American History entirely to the History Department in the College of Education. We cannot understand the problems of America as a World Power without first being acquainted with the background in European History. Therefore, as an aid to a better understanding and more compre- hensive citizenship, the study of European History is encouraged Department of Journalism Gl 0RG1 M ARK I ASII1 R. A. M.

The city room in the fine new building of The Mes- senger has been equipped to take care of the student reporters and editors. This gives Ohio University what is generally regarded by newspapermen and teachers of journalism as ideal opportunities lor the training of young men and women who desire to enter the newspaper or the publicity field The past year the lournalism curriculum has been increased decidedly Besides the laboratory work, courses are offered in reporting, editing feature and magazine writing, the writing of criticism, high school jour- nalism, the editorial page, the community newspaper, newspaper problems. and the newspaper as a social institution. ■ TWENTY THE ATHENA Department of Mathematics Robert Lacey Borger.

BORGER came to Ohio University nine years ago as the head of one of the oldest as well as one of the strongest and most important departments — the Department of Mathematics. Dr. William Hoover had occupied the position the twenty-five preceding years. Some of the courses offered by this department are: Trigonometry. Analytic Mechanics. Mathematics of Finance, and a number of other courses. In the past few years, very helpful and instructive courses have been offered by this department in theoretical and practical astronomy. Department of Philosophy Walter Sylvester Gamertsfflder, Ph. D. Professor of Philosophy and Ethics A. B.. Northwestern. 1910 B. D.. Evangelical Theological Sem- inary. 1912 Ph. D.. Ohio State University. 1920 Ho some, philosophy is what Plato called that dead delight. and intellectual joy forever; to others, it is the soul ' s sincere quest for an answer to the imperious problems of life: and to still others it is the persistent effort to overcome the fragmentary character of our specialized forms of knowledge by a co-ordination of all forms of experience. Following the argument where it leads in any of the specialized fields of knowledge is certain, sooner or later, to carry the inquirer back to the assumptions and presuppositions of his thinking. The problems which lie at the roots of experience are to be examined if candor and the spirit of science are to be respected. Questions about the nature of mind and the conditions of sound thinking: man, his place in nature and the significance of cultural values; the meaning of the working concepts of the sciences, e. g.. matter, force, energy, life, cause and effect, freedom and necessity, evolution, change and permanence, fact and law, appearance and reality: good and evil, and God. — such are a few of the problems of philosophy. To seek an answer to these questions inductively and by a synthetic interpretation of all experience. — to see life and the world whole, this is the never ending task of philosophy. The presumption implied in this gigantic undertaking is exceeded only by the assumption that man can carry on civilization without philosophy. The courses which have been added recently are American Phi- losophy. Comparative Religions, and Business and Professional Ethics. 30 TWET THE Department of Physics and Electrical Engineering A A A I .

M. Stine. who began to place more emphasis on Electrical Engineering, and under whom was graduated the first class in engineering, in 1891, on through the incum- bency thus far of Professor A. A. Atkinson, who took charge in 189V at which time it became a separate department, the Department of Physics and Electrical Engineering has enjoyed a growth in equipment, in enroll- ment, and in importance as a college department commensurate with the expansion of the Ohio University itself. Student enrollment in Electrical Engineering, not to mention Physics, increased 30 ' . in 1925-26 over the previous year; ami in 1926- 27 the growth was further increased 3 V, over 1925-26. while the in crease in the general enrollment in all departments was 10 ' .. Likewise the facilities for conducting the various phases of the work have improved especially when, a few years ago, Science Hall was erected, and still more recently, in the occupancy of Super Hall with its special facilities adapted to department requirements. One-half a floor is retained also in Science Hall for engineering laboratories, where old equipment has been reset on adequate concrete foundations, and much new machinery added. The purchase of around $10,000 worth of new machinery and apparatus within the last biennium will indicate something of the growth in equipment. This purchase includes several different types of motor- generators, phase convenors, transformers, rotary convenor, sine wave generator, meter testing board and full equipment, oscillograph, direct reading spectrometer with photographic attachment, polyphase watt meter, watt-ammeter, radio motor-generator set. Fahy permeameter. power factor meter, frequency indicator, and other equipment ol ma chinery and apparatus of smaller sizes The course has been entirely revised, amplified, and raised in stand- ard, so that it is fully comparable with the best of the slate institutions in the United States, and should make an appeal to young men of high character and seriousness of purpose who think of Electrical Engineering as a profession, and to those desiring to pursue Physics as a major course of study.

In each of these branches, actual platform practice is afforded as a part of the classroom work, in the public presentation of standard plays in the University auditorium, and in the intercollegiate debates with such insti- tutions as Miami University. Denison University, and the University of Cincinnati. The Intramural debates last year included eight of the strongest social fraternities on the campus. The plays presented last year were Shakespeare ' s Much Ado About Nothing. Barries Passing of the Third Floor Back. Emerson ' s The Whole Town ' s Talking. and Kelly ' s The Show-Off. The Department holds active membership in Tau Kappa Alpha, a national honorary debating fraternity. The Na- tional Collegiate Players, and Phi Delta Gamma, a national forensic fraternity.

Harvard, 1912 HE Department of Romance Languages is one of the oldest of Ohio University Besides giving training in the elements of the three great languages. French. Spanish, and Italian, the Department offers a number of advanced courses giving the student an opportunity to acquaint himself with these great literatures. The Department aims to instruct students so that they may read and enjoy the literature of each language, translate it easily, and be able to use the language as a medium of communication. In this day of Inter- nationalism a knowledge of foreign languages is an asset not to be lightly treated. To do further study in the arts, sciences, medicine, history, and Comparative Literature, ability to read the Romance Languages is not only to be desired but is essential. The Department endeavors to prepare students in the idioms so that they may adapt them to their own imme- diate needs. 32 r I ITSIETE ETSI TWE NTY SEVEN THE ATHENA ' A ' , Department of Commerce RLES MOI 1 VI COPE1 AND.

About one-half of each course is made up of studies in Commerce and Economics, and the remainder is made up of studies usually denominated cultural. The major lines of instruction are Accounting. Advertising Finance. Marketing, and Secretarial Studies. The offerings of the other departments of the University are open to students in Commerce. The courses in Commerce require studies from the Departments of English. Foreign Language. Economics. Logic. Physical Education, and Psy- chology. Commerce students elect studies in practically all the depart ments of the University. An increasing number of students from the College of Education are majoring in Commerce The present Senior Class has thirty one members who will receive the A. B. in Commerce degree. Graduates from Ohio University with the Commerce degree give a good account of themselves in the various graduate schools of the country, and also in the business positions in which they are employed.

Valuable additions to the faculty have been made from time to time, together with a considerable increase in equipment to accommodate the steady increase of students. The student organizations are all functioning under able leadership. The prospects for further service of high order are enhanced by the pros- pects of occupying the new building assigned to the School of Music in September. Indicative of the growth is the fact that while in 1922 there were three students majoring toward the Bachelor of Music degree, there are now twenty-four pursuing the same course. Comparative figures of those students taking music as an elective, and as required work from the College of Education show nearly the same percentage of growth. During the present academic year a careful survey indicates that over five hundred are engaged in some form of activity under the direction of tha School of Music. 34 College of Education THOMAS ( MC( R V ' !■ I N Ph 1 ) Dean of College ol I ducation THE ATHENA.

Wallace has been employed to co-operate with county and village schools and farmers in making this department of Ohio Uni- versity of more service to those interested in agricultural problems.

In the past few years a co-operative plan between Ohio University and the public schools of the city of Athens has been worked out so that at present many of the classrooms throughout the city are teacher-training situations. In September. 1926. the department moved into its new quarters in Rufus Putnam Hall, on East Union Street. This hall was especially designed to serve as a center for the teacher-training activities of Ohio University. It was erected at a cost of $200,000. Kindergarten Education Constance T. McLeod.

The purpose is to extend the opportunity of University training to those students who are widely scattered, and who find it — ' necessary to be employed part ot the time. In the year 19 10-1 1. only seventy-nine students were working in this manner: in 1925-26. the number had grown to more than 900. Classes are organized in various centers in twenty two counties of southeastern Ohio. Twenty students are required in each class. Two professors give their entire time to teach ing these classes, and a number of the members of the Faculty make one trip away from the campus each week for such work In 1124. the Division of Correspondence Study was organized In the first year, fifteen members of the Faculty taught by mail more than 200 students who live in sixty counties of Ohio and in six other states. I he interest in this type of University work was so great that opportuni- ties were increased the second year, with the result that at this writing there are more than 450 students pursuing home study courses under the instruction of thirty-three members ot the faculty. Among students are residents of 73 counties of Ohio, eight other states of the United States and one foreign country. About one-fourth of any four-year course offered by the University may be done in University Extension Classes and Correspondence Courses. 39 Department of English Hiram Roy Wilson. Litt. D.

The department has had from its beginning a threefold aim: first, to offer work which will adequately equip the prospective teachers with a knowledge of geography: second, to cause work in geography to be a legal substitute for the science requirement in the College of Liberal Arts: and third, to afford the opportunity for full development of special teachers in geography. A still further aim is to correlate many of the courses with the work in the school of commerce. The department sponsors a club. The Melting Pot. which has as ts purpose the bringing together of students who are especially interested n the field of geography. 40 rE EN ETsJTY HE A T H E N A Department of History Thcmas n.

The various shops are a veritable bee- hive of industry throughout the day. We find the new quarters with its large, light, and airy rooms ad- mirably suited to the need of the work. New courses being offered this year include sheet metal work and home mechanics, and for next year the department hopes to be able to offer courses in printing. Industrial Arts work is becoming more and more a work dealing with a number of tool operations and materials, and a body of information concerning these materials and tools, rather than the former idea, which meant wood-work only. There is an increased demand for well prepared and thoroughly qualified teachers for this type of public school work. Department of Mathematics Mrs. Blanche M. Goodwin Student Assistant Ri IB] !.

This means that about ten percent of the entire enrollment of the University are majoring in Physical Education. With this increased en rollmcnt comes an increase in staff and physical equipment. The demand for Ohio University trained men and women is steadily increasing and is keeping pace with the large increase in enrollment The Sophomore requirement in physical education went into effect this year. This requirement has about doubled the number of students taking general physical exercise. It gives the department a much better opportunity to be of real service to the great number who are handicapped through minor or major physical defects. During the past year the intramural program was enlarged upon. A larger percent than ever before availed themselves of the opportunity for exercise and recreation and participated in some form of intramural activity. Intercollegiate athletics as a part of our physical education program should be mentioned in this article Athletics have a very definite place in our educational system and therefore should not be considered as an activity apart from the general education program. During the present year our teams have shown improvement not only in the percentage column, but also from the standpoint of better sportsmanship on the part of our athletics and student body. 45 THE ATHENA Department of Psychology James p.

How- ever, the growth of the institution soon made the continuance of such a plan practically impossible. Therefore, in 1886. Dr. John P. Gordon was given the Professorship of Philosophy and Ethics. This arrangement was followed until the year 1905. when the De- partment of Psychology was combined with the newly organized De- partment of Paidology under the direction of Dr. Chrisman. But. in 1922 the two departments were separated and Dr. James P. Porter be- came head of the Psychology Department. The department has grown to such an extent that Dr. Porter has as his assistants. Prof. J. R. Gentry. A. C. Anderson. H. P. Longstaff. Dr. Worcester, and Dr. Fenton. 44 NINETEEN TWENTY SEVEN :s THE ATHENA Department of School Music ELIZABHH G. GARBER, B.

It remained in this department until 1920. when, combined with Economics, it formed a separate department called Economics and Sociology. In 1923 this department was divided and Economics was placed in the College of Liberal Arts while Sociology remained in Education. In 1924, Mr. W. R. Snavely was employed as assistant in Sociology. but he remained only until 1925, and was then followed by H. J. Jeddeloh. A total oi twenty-one courses are offered in the department which include. General Sociology. Rural Sociology. Educational Sociology, and Social Technology. The total enrollment for the first semester 1926-27 was 333.

History of the Senior Class N the autumn of [923 some six hundred young men and women expressed their interest in higher education by registering in Ohio University. They constituted the largest freshman class that had ever entered the University up to that time. The members of that motley group who were fortunate enough to continue their scholastic careers at Ohio University constitute the present graduating class. The present senior class has the distinction of being the largesl class graduated here during the entire history of the University. At the opening of the freshman year Hewitt Matthews was chosen president of the class; after the death of Mr. Matthews. Esther Nause assumed the duties incumbent upon the leader of the class. The sophomore year was characterized by careful organization and much success. A strenuous effort was made to establish some records and precedents for the class. Under the careful leadership of Dudley Foster, the class organized and carried out the first Sophomore Hop ever given on the campus of Ohio University. It was during this same year that the Sophomores combined to give the Freshmen the first defeat for several years in the annual Tug-of-War. At the opening of the junior year about three hundred of the class returned to resume their activities at Ohio University. Hubert Huddle was chosen President. Upon Mr. Huddle ' s leaving school at the end of the first semester. Dayton Wise, who had been chosen Vice President, assumed the leadership of the class until the opening of the present school year. Soon after the opening of the present year, the class assembled and elected William Rochester to be President during the last year of its existence at Ohio University. A meeting was called very soon after the new President assumed his duties. The chairmen of the standing com mittees were appointed: a very careful organization was effected to realize certain objectives for the class. The six hundred that came to the Hocking Valley in 1921 were be- ginning their march to the strains of a new air. Fortunately for us and for society not all of the six hundred have fallen by the wayside. Some were unable to cope adequately with the problems of scholastic lite But for its security and protection the State looks to those who have not only found the fundamental problems of life but have also acted in the face of these problems so as to realize the greatest good for which man is capable. May the members of the class of ' 27 never shirk the resnonsi- bilities which they have assumed during their four years ' residence within the portals of their Alma Mater. 51 NINETEEN TWENTY V LEADING WOMEN ' Kaiser 1927 Coulter Vcod Ujorth Al T WENTY St THE ATHENA _jm •_■ :-:■:•:■!■:•:-:•?-+ WMHMW:«MK «vM3Sv-i Virginia Harrington Rock Creek.

In the center of a large group of her fellow- workers, stood an aged gypsy, her watchful eyes intent upon the varying colors of her crystal. As the colors changed to green and white, she mystically began to repeat the tale that was there reveale d to her. In the year nineteen hundred and twenty-four there came to the portals of Ohio University a class to begin its career in that institution by beginning as every one does, even the dignified Seniors, as Freshmen. I see the upper classmen making fun of the new members of the school of knowledge, and now and then I see a rebellion led by the wrath- ful youths of the first year class. I also see many persons wearing green headgears, taking a plunge in the depths of the hospital lakes. But all in all the colors show the class of eight hundred members completing a successful year under the able leadership of Frank Howard, from Cleveland. The name of Joe Pitts stands as the leader of the group for the next year, continued the crystal reader. During this time the colors show many bright spots. A large number of the men appear on the varsity football, basketball, and baseball squads, as well as in track. The girls are sharing in the beauty honors of the Silver Mirror. To insure a good scholastic standing for the class. Scarabacus. a Sopho- more Honor Society, is being organized. It has promises of a future of benefits to its members. Coming as a grand climax to the two successful and enthusiastic years. I see the Sophomore Hop being held at the armory. (The colors in the crystal are suddenly intensely bright, as the fore- teller of fate with a knowing nod of her head, concludes her story.) I see a class of ambitious men and women entering upon their third year of varying activities. The Junior Class as a group is under the guidance of four class officers which were chosen early in the year. They are Jack Robeson. Danville. President: Gene Tilton, Hamilton. Vice President; Walter Forrest. Cleveland, Secretary: John MeCracken. Belle fontaine, Treasurer.

Shall we ever forget that feeling, that peculiar quickening of the heart as we climbed slowly down from the train. To the right of us. to the left of us. every- where, fellows and girls were shaking hands and an interchange of kisses. Glad to see you back. Jack Well, old roomie, djaget my last letter? Sure, had a peach of a summer. How many times ' Well, had a big one the night I left. Sworn off though until Christmas. She did ' She would, she ' s just the type. Hi. Don. here ' s my thumb and four to go with it. Kid. Many of the gang get in yet? Little early. iMy God. I never saw so many fresh- men at one time in all my life. And Green! Say, boy. they are so green they think Rex Beach is a summer resort. Oh. well, the first thousand years is the hardest. Sure. I wrote to him. the bum. And we were green. Dazedly we wandered over the town: found a room: and helplessly registered for five eight o ' clocks. Then came mysterious upper classmen who whispered confidentially to some of the 116 1SIITSIETEE TWENTY SEVEN K fellows and without giving them much chance to answer, whisked them off in waiting cars. We saw them the next day. proudly displaying curious little pins on their lapels. Life was full to overflowing for them: theirs a life of a king — until after the first week. We filed miserably into the auditorium and heard President Bryan greet the student body. How we longed for home! Our little bubble was being slowly pricked: all our wonderful pictures of what college was like began to fade away. Then one day we elected officers John Algeo was voted president A fine fellow. Johnny. We were to discover that he was capable of better things the following year. Days and weeks passed quickly. We settled down to the routine of classes. Came initiation time. The Neophytes became actives and life looked rosier. Then came our run-in with the Sophomores and we. like white swans, gracefully were flung into the muddy, cold water of the lake Our greatest peril was over: we took life easy until the week prior to final examinations. The midnight oil burned, notebooks changed hands, and lo! our first year of college was over. Back we came the next September, anxious to get back We greeted old friends and commented on what a green freshman class had entered school. Boy, were they green! Why, they were so green — . What a relief. Now to enjoy a nine months ' vacation after working hard all summer. We watched the pledging of new freshmen. Cocky at first, that ailment was quickly eradicated. Life was good. After the two upper classes had elected officers, the Sophomore ( lass was quickly marshalled and we elected Dave Todd, that busy, hard to find man of affairs, as president Glen Httinger. the boy who glories in aiding preps find their summons, was made vice president Glenn Smith the six-foot basketball player was elected Secretary. The honor of Treas- urer was conferred on little Joe Dando. and who later made the B. A A All-star football team. Joe also sings on the Male Varsity Quartette. With such efficient officers the Sophomore Class did big things The freshmen were successfully taken care of and there now but remains for us to accomplish even bigger things next year as Juniors. The largest class to ever enter Ohio University, it is for us to carry on its traditions. Here ' s to the class of ' 29! 11 NINETEEN TWENTY SEVEN THE A T H E A bobenmeyer. bob Carpenter.

This group, composed of eight hundred and two freshmen from far and near, entered the portals of Ohio University September 23. 1926. On the threat of being thrown into the lake by the upper classmen the boys were compelled to wear Freshmen dinks and the girls green arm bands. We first made a name for ourselves on the night of the annual Freshmen pajama parade, when four hundred Freshmen participated in the biggest parade in the history of the University. After struggling through a month of college life without any or- ganization, we were called together by the officers of the Men ' s Union to choose our leaders for the coming year. Wallace Johnson was elected President: James Berry. Vice President: Clayton Kline. Treasurer, and Pauline Jones, Secretary. The first social function held under the auspices of the class of 1930 was the annual Freshman dance. It was not only well attended by the Freshmen, but also by a large delegation of upper classmen. We are proud of the men who represented us in the different branches of athletics. A great number of promising candidates responded to the call for Freshman football, basketball, track, and baseball. With its reputation firmly established, the class of 1930 will enter the second year in order to gain new laurels for its most worthy head. The class is endeavoring to follow the trail of those who have pre- ceded it and to set an example for those weary toilers who are to come after it. 130 TsIITMETEEN TWENTY S EVE jM U w THE A T H E N Morgan.

BIRD HE plan or athletic organization at Ohio University is somewhat different than that found in many of our universities. We have a Department of Physical Education, and athletics are considered as a part of the whole program. This means that the admin- istrative officers at Ohio University recognize the educational values to be found in a sound athletic program. They realize that athletics are not entirely separate from the educational program of the institution, but a part of the whole scheme of education. Athletics under this sort of a program mean much more in the life and training of the individual. With this general idea in mind, athletics are becoming much more valuable at Ohio University. The past year has been the best athletic year this institution has ever experienced. The men representing the athletic teams were the finest of men and always ready to sacrifice for the sake of the institution. This year has proved to all that the formation of the Buckeye Athletic association was right and that through it we will have better and fairer competition. Through the formation of this association, the spirit between the several institutions has been much improved, and we are look- ing forward to even better relationships between the Buckeye schools. Last year our football team was the best team that Ohio University has put on the gridiron during the last five years. 138 NINETEEN TWENTY SEVEN m The basketball team started slowly but finished the season strong. Next year should be a big year for basketball, with several veterans back and a strong Freshman team. The baseball team won a large percent of their games last season and at times looked like big leaguers. It was necessary for the coach to build around two or three veterans and he succeeded in developing a line team. We are making rapid strides in track and this year will see the best efforts in this sport ever shown by Ohio University. A good track team is always an indication of a well balanced athletic program Our wrestling team came across again this year and won much glory. They not only won the Buckeye Athletic Association tournament at Athens, but also won all but two of its dual meets, winning from the strong West Virginia team and losing only to Ohio State and Michigan State. 1 he tennis team finished another very successful season. They won i practically all of their matches and with the wrestling team, finished high. [ntramular athletics enjoyed another very successful year, a larger percent of students competing this year than ever before. Again. I wish to congratulate the student managers of the different sports. No institution can boast of a finer group of managers than we have at Ohio University. Their work this year has been highly efficient and they deserve much credit for this most successful athletic year. MET THE ATHENA Coaches Don C. Peden. a forceful and courageous young man. has been responsible for the making of Ohio ' s football [cams. He is the same Peden that skirted the ends, dashed off tackle, passed and kicked for Illinois during the seasons of 1920-1921. By the unanimous choice of sport writers and coaches he was made All Western half-back. Walter Eckersall has the following to say about Peden in the Chicago Tribune: Don Peden. of Illinois, is placed on the All Western because he is one of the greatest backs ever to be in the game. He is fast, clever, can pass. kick, and gets under way in faultless fashion. On top of all. he can clean the path as an interferer for his team mates. Peden ' s last year in college brought the highest award achievable be- cause of his character, personality, and exceptional playing ability. He was made captain of the 1921 Illini. Besides being Head Football Coach, he also acts in the capacity of Baseball Coach and instructor in several coaching classes. Ohio University is very fortunate in having a man like Don Peden. B. T. Grover. Head Coach in Basketball, and Assistant Coach in Football, has the enviable reputation of being an authority on basketball throughout the country. He at- tended Ohio University and while there was basketball cap- tain all conference forward, and a plaver of wide reputation. Popular as a plaver. he has since become more popular as a coach Upon hi s graduation from Ohio he was made Athletic Director at Harvey. Illinois. The following year he was called back to his Alma Mater as assistant basketball coach. He was made Head Basketball Coach in 19 2 2. and has enjoved no little success since that time. He has developed such players as Wright Herron. O ' Daffer. King, and Burkett. Besides being a coach. Grover acts in the capacities of Instructor in Physical Education, coaching and officiating. Butch is a man among men. W H Herbert, one of the best football players ever to be turned out at Ohio University, is serving his Alma Mater as Head Coach in Track. Freshman Football Coach. and Instructor in Physical Education and Track Coaching. While attending Ohio University, he was a member of the football three years, playing guard his last year and winning the honor of being chosen as All-Ohio guard. He aiso was a member of the track squad three years, starring as a dash man. Upon graduation in 1924. he immediately went to Marvs- ville Missouri, in the capacity of coach. He remained here one year, and established enviable records with his foot- ball and basketball teams. The following year he was called back to his Alma Mater, whom he is now serving in the above named capacities. Bill is a fine young man of sterling character, with all the necessary qualities that are needed in the athletic business of today, and he is doing his utmost to instill these qualities in the younger athletes of the University of todav.

The Pcden boys were pessimistic about this game, because in the past the Red Men had thrown a scare into Ohio ' s team. However. — the game was hardly under way before Ohio ' s offense began to function. The Rio Grande boys were completely outclassed in every department of the game, being defeated by the score of 40 to nothing. This was the best showing that the Ohio team had made in the opening game in years past. y H4 TsIITnIETEEN jty sea THE ATHENA M N SWI 1 Nl V AKRON D ISPI.AYING a wonderful defense, the Pedcn machine went down to defeat at the hands of Akron by the score of 3 to 0. A drop kick from the thirty-five yard line by Johnson, quarterback of — ' the Zippers, spelled defeat for Ohio. The Pedenites held the Akron boys for four downs on the one yard line, proving that their defense was superb. Captain Wise bore the brunt of Ohio ' s defense. while Paisley substituting for Dando. proved the tower of strength when Akron tried to score a touchdown from the one yard line V 1-15 NINET % I A T H E N A. DENISON HE following week Ohio met Denison on Ohio ' s field. Although they had defeated the Big Red the previous season by a big score, they were not overconfident. Both teams displayed won- derful defensive of ability, although neither of the teams had the punch to put over a touchdown. Two drop kicks from difficult angles. one coming from the first quarter and one in the last quarter, from the educated toe of Sweeney, was Ohio ' s margin of victory. The final score was 6 to in favor of Ohio. 146 _ : =3 THE A T H E N CINCINNATI CyllNCINNATI was the guest of Ohio at Athens for the annual Home Coming game. Unleashing a pow erful offense, the Peden ma- chine ran rough shod over the Bear Cats, winning by a score of — I 8 to 7. Incidentally, this broke a jinx that had been trailing Ohio in her Home Coming games in the past. One of the features ol the game was the interception of a Cincinnati pass on the fifty yard line by Jarvie, who raced the remaining distance of the field for a touchdown Sayles, Kennard. and Doran were the cogs in the Pedenite offense, the former making long gains and Doran furnishing the punch lor lour touchdowns. The blocking of Kennard was very outstanding. The score of this game was the largest to be registered bv .ins B A A team during the cnlire season. 14 . iHIS was Migration Day for Ohio, fifteen hundred students and I townspeople following the Bobcats to Delaware. Playing in a sea of mud. Ohio Wesleyan and Ohio Uni- versity, time honored rivals, battled to a scoreless tie. Both teams were very evenly matched, although the Bobcats had no chance to display their powerful offense. Had it been a dry day. there is no doubt in the minds of the spectators but what Ohio would have scored early in the game. Blyth and Longley. selected on the All-B. A. A. second team, were the mainstays of Ohio ' s defense. THE ATHENA. JEFFFRY OHIO NORTHERN CJ UFFERING from the strain in preparation for the crucial battle with Ohio Weslcyan. the Bobcats played a listless game with the Polar Bears. The offense of the Pedenites could not get started. They scored a touchdown in the first quarter, but failed in their attempt for point after touchdown. In the third quarter. Sweeney registered a field goal from the eighteen yard line Then the Polar Bears came back with a strong forward pass attack, scored a touch- down and the extra point. Shortly after, the game ended with Ohio on the long end of a 9 to 7 score. THE ATHENA P MARIETTA LAYING their ancient rivals on a water soaked field the Pedenites defeated Marietta in the Pioneer City by the score of 1 2 to 0. The first score came early in the game, when Captain Wise blocked a Marietta punt recovered the ball and took ii ovei lor a touchdown. Ohio failed to kick the goal after touchdown. From then on. Ohio contented themselves with holding Marietta. However, they scored another touchdown in the third quarter, as a result of a long run by McKinley. Doran taking it over for the count. u 150 NINETEEN TWENTY S E i WITTENBERG EETING the Lutherans at Springfield in the last game of the season, to decide the championship of the B. A. A.. Ohio ' s team went down to defeat, in a well played game, by the score of 7 to 6. Both teams were very evenly matched, as was shown by the score. Wittenberg scored in the first quarter and made the point after touchdown. From then on both teams seemed to be satisfied to remain on the defense, until the last quarter, when the Ohio team opened up with a powerful passing attack, which resulted in a touchdown for the Bobcats, but failed to kick goal. In the last game of their college career. Captain Wise. Kennard. Doran. Longley. BIyth. Duncan. Sayles. Sweeney and Paisley, played brilliantly, bringing a great amount of credit to Ohio.

Coach Bill ' Herbert issued the call for candidates for the Freshman football team. This resulted in 70 men reporting for work Men from all sections of the State as well as several neighboring States, were included in this group. Soon after the season opened, the squad was divided into several teams and each team was given various phases of each opponent ' s plays week by week- Alter these plays were perfected, the various teams were pitted against the Varsity nightly, both on offense and defense. This type of work was very valuable in the development of the Varsity for their weekly games. Some of the outstanding men this year were Forrest, Brammer. Maibauer. Rollin. Kraft. Iafalice. Abbruzzino. Tracey. Berry, Young, and Seedhouse. One of the most important things accomplished by the Frosh Team this year was their learning of the fundamentals of football under the supervision of Herbert. Here- tofore, this phase of Freshmen football had been neglected. As a result of this work, this year ' s Freshmen team should prove a fine nucleus around which to build the Varsity of 1927. WILLIAM BILL ' FORREST William Bill Forrest, a graduate of Cleveland East lech, was elected Captain of the Frosh football team soon after the season opened. He is a half back of good quality, being very aggressive both on offense and defense. He is especially sensitive on forward pass defense, thus making him a very fine type of material for the Varsity. Night after night he led the Freshmen against the Varsity and gave a good account of himself. Bill is eligible for three years of Varsity competition, and should prove a tower of strength in the Ohio backfield. FORREST.

J 157 NINETEEN WENT THE ATHENA w ITH the loss of three veterans from List year ' s team Ohio ' s hopes were not the brightest for a successful season However. Coach Grover found a com- bination that looked good in the pre- season games Wittenberg was the first B. A. A. foe to be met. and in a close game they were victors. The next game was pbved against the Ohio Conference Champions. In a torrid game that went into an overtime period Muskingum won. Ohio Wesleyan handed Ohio their second B. A. A. loss a few days later At this time two of the members of the team were found ineligible, and Ohio was forced to play the remainder of the season with only one veteran in the lineup. Cincinnati and Miami were both met the following week and the games resulted in victories for our foes. The second game with Muskingum was another overtime battle with the champs again on top. BURKHOLDER 158 WETSJTY S EV A T H E ENISON winners of the B. A. A. defeated Ohio by a single point in .in exciting game that was plaved on the home floor. The next game with Marietta re- sulted in a win for Ohio, and showed that a winning team was again in the — ! — making. Denison won the game played at Granville, and Ohio chalked up their first B- A. A. victory four days later when Miami was defeated. The Washington Birthday game played with Ohio Wesley an was won by the Bishops. Ohio got revenge on Cincinnati by giving them a drubbing, and proved to the fans that they were again in form. Marietta dropped their second game to the Bobcats a few days later. The season was then dosed with a pleasing victory over Wittenberg. A summary of the season shows Ohio with a lower percentage than in former years, but too much cannot be expected from a green team. live of the last seven games were victories, and next year ' s team should win many games BONII 159 THE ATHENA BUD DUBOIS.

He deserves this recognition be- cause of the fact that although he plaved a guard position throughout the season, he was placed on this five in the position of forward, because of his uncanny ability to hold his man to a low score and at the same time bear the brunt of the offense for his team.

The batting power of the men was surprising. they gathered thirteen hits from the Miami moundsmen. Sweeney did the hurling honors of Ohio, along with Gamber. the two allowing Miami ten hits. Both teams played ragged ball in the field, but hit fiercely at times. In the seventh inning, after trailing Miami for six innings, the Ohio steam roller started to function, resulting in a lead of one run. when the inning closed. Miami staged a late rally in the ninth 166 r [ ITSTETE EN- TWENTY SE THE ATHE inning, but it was too late. Theisen. Fuller. Wise. Robeson and Sweeney formed the bulwark of attack for Ohio, each gaining two hits apiece. If first games are any predictions. Ohio should come through with many wins this year- The following week Ohio, with a badly crippled team, journeyed to Oxford and Cincinnati, respectively. The first game was played with Miami and Ohio lost by the score of 1 5 to 1 . The offerings of Christy and Wakcly were pounded to all corners of the lot. while Ohio was unable to hit at all. Beazell being the only man on the Ohio team that was credited with a safe blow. The next day Cincinnati was met at Cincinnati and Cincinnati went down to defeat by the score of 8 to 5. Sweeney, hurling for Ohio, was very effective with all the Bear Cats, with the exception of Allen, who was credited with four hits out of as many times to the plate. Beazell again led the Ohio attack this day. being credited with three hits. Ohio met Denison in the nexl game at Ohio Field and played miser- able ball, both in the field and at bat. being defeated by the score of 9 to 2. Three Ohio hurlcrs were ineffective, the Big Red garnishing eleven safeties from them, while Ohio was getting six. Beazell. Fuller. Wise. Sweeney and Over were the only ones to connect safely. It was just an off day for the Bobcats, but it proved disastrous in the end Marietta aided Ohio in continuing her losing streak by crushing Ohio 11 to 1. With both Sweeney and Gamber on the shelf. Coach Peden was compelled to reach into center field and take Fuller for mound duty. He proved to be very ineffective, while Eggenberger, for Marietta, baffled the Bobcats with his offerings, allowing them only five hits. The next game was with our old rivals. Ohio Desleyan, at Dela- ware. The game resolved itself into a pitcher ' s battle, between Sweeney and Kalbfus, the latter obtaining the decision by the score of S to 3, as a result of two terrific home run drives by Pratt. Wesleyan shortstop. 167 Sweeney gave a very good mound exhibition, but the Ohio batsmen were unable to cope with the offerings of the Wesleyan pitcher. Theisen. Beazell and Bayless being the only ones to hit safely. The tables were turned in the next game, and Ohio at last got into the win column. They defeated Wittenberg at Springfield, by the score of 7 to 2. Fuller, pitching for Ohio, was very effective, while the bats of Wise. Theisen. Beazell. Eweeney. Bayless. Fuller, McNabb and Rhodes provided the margin for victory- This caused the outlook for Ohio to look a little brighter. Ohio lost the next game to Ohio Wesleyan in a slug fest at Ohio Field, by the score of 1 2 to 8. Sweeney did the hurling for Ohio, but was not very effective in the pinches, the Methodists getting fourteen hits from his offerings, coupled with poor support. As for the offense. Ohio garnished ten hits but not at the right time. The Bobcats that were able to hit the offerings of Swartz were Fuller. Wise. Over. Sweeney. Bayless. Robeson. Shields and Rhodes. In the best game of the season. Sweeney turned the Marietta team back in big fashion, on Ohio Field, to the tune of 3 to 2. Both teams gathered seven hits, the Bobcats having the fortune of collecting their hits at an opportune time. The work of the entire team was way above par. and McNabb at second base, stood out as the man in the Ohio infield, who bore the brunt of the defensive work. His powerful arm whipped the ball over to first base on a number of close plays. On the offense, the same three men who had been bearing the brunt of the work this year, came through again. Captain Theisen. Beazell and Sweeney each earned two hits, while McNabb collected the other bingle. The regular manner in which Sweeney mowed the Marietta nine down, after the Pioneers had given the Ohio nine a terrific lacing on the Marietta home field a couple of weeks ago. was pleasing. 168 NINETEEN T WETSJTY SEVEN Cincinnati was met in the next game and Ohio lost to them by the close score of 6 to 5. Fuller did the hurling for the Bobcats, but received very poor support. Ohio out-hit Cincinnati, the Bobcats getting 1 1 hits while the Bearcats were getting 6 hits. Errors were very profound in the Ohio line-up and after leading Cincinnati for eight innings, fell by the wayside in the ninth inning and lost the ball game, because of their inability to hit. In the next game Ohio overcame a five run lead, and defeated Wittenberg in a loosely played game by the score of 8 to 6. Fuller and Johnson did the mound duty for Ohio during the early part of the game but Sweeney was forced to relieve the latter in the fifth inning. Wise played a good game for Ohio, scoring three runs and having a good day in the field- Rhodes played a very creditable game behind the bat. being a tower of strength on the offense. The last game of the season resulted in a twelve inning battle with Denison. Ohio losing out in the twelfth by the score of 1 1 to 10. The hitting of both teams was very strong. Denison getting theirs when they needed them The hitting of Theisen. Beazell. Sweeney and Wise was very creditable. Theison getting a two-base hit. Beazell a three-sacker and Wise a home run. This game was a very exciting one. and although it did not result in a win for Ohio, it was a great game with which to close the season. 169 NINETEEN TWENT iyi BRUBAKER. Captain OS. U O v MIAMI U. C.

Season Review P U7 RIFFITH made his first appearance on the wrestling squad this year in the 1 15 pound class. He gave a good account of himself winning 21 points and losing 8. He won the Buckeye Cham- pionship. He should make a good showing next year because he is a faithful trainer. Stocker was out for the featherweight class but failed to find him- self. He is apt to make a good fight for a regular place next year, his last. Glass, a new man in the 125 pound class, made a wonderful record, winning all his matches up to the Buckeye Tournament. He scored a fall in all bouts except one in which he gained a decision over his man. He lost by decision to this same man during the tournament principally because of weakness due to a spell of sickness. Fall over State. V Ya . and Michigan. McCurdy represented O- U. in the 125 pound class at Miami, getting his man for a decision. He has wrestling ability but failed to train con- sistent enough to win a regular berth on the squad. Breed finished his last year with a record of 21 points won and 13 points lost. He won all his Buckeye meets by a fall, and the B. A. A. championship in the 135 pound class. Freddy is to be commended on his clean training which enabled him to make such a good showing. 172 N ITSTETE EN TWENTY SEVEN THE ATHENA MCCURDY Shafer won all his meets except those with West Virginia and Mich- igan. He made a good showing in the tournament, winning for himself the championship in the 145 pound class. Shaf has the old fight which makes him a reliable man much admired by the steadily increasing numbers of wrestling fans. Captain Brubaker was the high point man of the team, with a record of 29 points won and three lost. He received an injury at the outset of his Ohio State match, but fought out the contest in a dazed condition to lost the decision. He ended his college wrestling career by retaining the welterweight championship. Bru has been a clean, well conditioned athlete throughout his college life, and well merits the admiration given him both at home and abroad. Duncan ended his career here by appearance in both the heavyweight and light heavyweight classes, winning the championship in the latter Duncan has never been thrown, his record being 21 points won and one decision lost. Although this was Duncan ' s only year on the squad, his football tactics showed themselves, and he delivered in the pinches. Begola battled in both the 175 pound and heavyweight classes- Although light for a heavyweight, his great strength and fighting spirit gained for him a regular place on the squad and later, the B A. A. heavyweight title. Begola has shown that he has the ability, and should be one of the leading scorers with this year ' s experience to his credit. Roberts showed considerable improvement in his work this year. He has the natural ability and aggressiveness necessary for a good wrestler and will stage a game fight for the regular 1 J 5 pound position next year. He is a sticker and a clean fighter.

However, with the return of Bill Herbert to his Alma Mater, in the capacity of track coach, these events have been revived. The squad of thirty-five men has been working out daily under the supervision of Coach Herbert and. at present, the prospects are very bright. With Hudson and Percelle of last year ' s team, along with the men from thi s year ' s Cross Country team as a nucleus, the squad is fast rounding into shape. Outdoor meets for this spring include competition with the follow- ing schools: Ohio Relays. Denison. Cincinnati. Wittenberg. Muskingum. Kenyon. the Buckeye Conference Meet, and the Ohio Conference Meet. Ohio ' s track teams in the future should be of the best, because of the ever-increasing number of men that turn out for the team each spring. 174 NINETEEN- TWENTY SEVEN THE ATHENA Cross Country Squad Zimmer, Coach; Percelle, Schall, Mosher, Wiegand, Weaver CROSS COUN I RY ROSS COUNTRY running as an intercollegiate sport, was added to the school program for the first time this year. It was there fore an inexperienced squad made up mostly of Sophomores that carried Ohio ' s colors in the two dual meets and the conference meet. Percelle, veteran two miler. was the only candidate with running experience. The team made a very creditable showing running the meet with Denison and losing to Wesleyan in a triangular meet with that institu- tion and Ohio State. The team placed fourth in the Conference meet, finishing behind Ohio Wesleyan. Miami, and Cincinnati. Schaal was the outstanding man of the team, but Percelle. Weaver, Mosher and Wcigand were to be depended upon, all showing great improvement as the season progressed. A number of promising Freshmen worked out daily, and a great deal of credit can be given them in helping to round the Varsity into shape. Shaw, a prep scholar star from Pinkcrton Academy, with three years experience, proved to be invaluable. With the addition of this Freshmen material to the veteran squad of this year, much can be expected next vear. 175 NINETEEN TWENTY ATHENA -Bird. Coach: Martin. Lutz. McConihay Sitting— Walton.

Only two matches were lost last season, one to Wesleyan and the other to Denison. Considering the newness of the sport and the fact that old time tennis players were men. the boys did remarkably well. At the present time the squad is working out daily in preparation for the matches this spring. If pre-season dope means anything. Ohio ' s tennis team should have another successful season. 176 INETEEN TWENTY SEVEN h 1 I % THE ATHE N.A MfKMl¥£ 177 m EEN TWENTY THE ATHENA GROVER. Director KITTLE. Manager (nri Intramurals HE past year has been one of the most successful seasons ever enjoyed by the intramural group. The Physical Education Department has attempted to attain the record of having a place for every man student in some phase of intramural sports. This is the second year that a student manager has had to be appointed to handle the many duties of this department. Dean Kittle, under the direction of Director Grover. has efficiently taken over this duty and managed it in a businesslike manner. He has been ably assisted by undergraduate student managers. One of the chief benefits derived from the sports is that it enables the coaches of Varsity teams to look over prospective teams. This gets men into Varsity athletics, that otherwise would be lost to the teams. Another benefit of importance is that members of the student body offi- ciate all games, thus giving these men confidence in themselves. We arc all hoping that the coming years may be as successful in Intramurals as this past one has been. 178 NINETEEN- TWENTY SEVEN THE ATHENA DEI I A TAU DEI I A Class Baseball National League III!

It is the purpose of this organization to offer to every girl in college some kind of physical activity in which she may participate and in so doing learn the values which come from intimate association with girls on the athletic field, gvmnasium floor, and the open road and field. To become an active member il is necessary tor a girl to win 100 points bv actual participation in activities offered by the organization. To maintain membership 100 points per year must be earned There are four regular meetings of the association, these meetings taking the form of business and social meetings.

These three girls were the first women on the campus to wear a Varsity O. Thus began the present O club, which is a part of V. A. A. To be eligible to wear an O a girl must win 1000 points by par- ticipating in the various athletics on the campus. The coveted letter is then awarded on a basis of scholastic standing, and sportsmanlike and democratic attitude on the campus. Up to the present time 14 O ' s have been awarded and it is hoped that there will be several more before the end of the year. There are n ow upon the campus seven girls wearing O sweaters. 190 N INETE ETsf TWENTY SEVF THE ATHENA Hockey Squad Fourth Row — Fouts, Edmunds. Black, Iekes, Taylor, Walsh. Cooper.

To each girl who had been out to six practices and had played in the tournament, one hundred points were given, which went toward her much desired O and W. A. A. This is the first year that a hockey field has been marked out for the girls. Much enthusiasm was shown for hockey when the girls played their games in mud and ice. Considering the spirit and the success of this year, we expect hockey to become one of the leading sports for the women of this campus. 101 NINETEEN TWENTY HE ATTHENA Swimming s jlWIMMING again held much interest for the girls who were out for the team.

After this was accom- plished, a constitution and bylaws were drawn up and submitted to the men of the University: they accepted the work of the committee, and thus created the Men ' s Union of Ohio University. Soon afterwards a three -story building opposite the North Entrance of the Campus was purchased to be used as the home of the organization, and became known as the Men ' s Union Building. The facilities of the building include a reading room, ball room, pool room. Torch ' ' room, band and orchestra room, and the offices of the campus publications: the officers of the Union, who are elected by popular vote of the men students to supervise its functions and facilities, occupy apartments on the third floor. Four boards of control are also elected by popular vote to aid the officers in carrying out its activities. Every male student who is properly matriculated at Ohio University automatically becomes a member of the Union, and is urged to take an active part in all of its meetings and activities and to promote its purposes. These are as follows: To provide the machinery of organization for efficient student government, to promote the interests of the men of the student body so as to make this campus an attractive place for men students, and to unite all groups into a solid unified student group with a GREATER Ohio University Spirit. 196 NINETEEN ' TWENTY SEVEN THE ATHEK Junior-Senior Governing Board HrueniJ.

The first public appearance of the Orchestra was at Chapel on December 1 Tth, where they made a most favorable impression. Under the leadership of Professor Ingerham. who succeeded Mr. Andrist. a continued improvement has been manifested which was borne out by the remarkable reception the Orchestra received in Ironton. Ohio, and at their home concert, given April 27th. With Ohio University ' s enrollment well past the two thousand mark it is not outside the expectations of the authorities of the School of Music to foresee an organization next year with a membership of one hundred in the Orchestra. Trials for admission will be held next Sop tember at the opening of the first semester.

Built around two men of last year ' s quartette, it has credibly carried the name and fame of a grand old school throughout Ohio and adjacent states. A Kiwanis or Rotary Banquet in the Hocking Valley was not complete unless these entertainers were included on the program, and many were the pleasant undergraduate moments recalled in the minds of our Alumni, when these Songsters helped organize and perpetuate Alumni chapters. Competition for this much-sought activity was close and plentiful this year and only after careful and studied eliminations were the best four chosen. David K.

And now we are within the boundaries of our Alma Mater, walking beneath great trees, which have looked down on many long-forgotten scenes — old customs which came and went with the changing of the times. It is hard to believe that our school has calmly watched the advance of civilization, to us. past us. and on into the west. That it has lain, peacefully bus v. while wars were fought and peaces made: and while our country grew from a new. weak republic to the most powerful nation in the world. Surely there are many forgotten secrets which this old campus could tell if it would. Shall we rest here for a while and think of some of the traditions which have been handed down through the years ' Records show that in the good old days chapel was held seven days a week and twice a day. If whisperings were heard during prayers, expulsion was not too great a punishment for the offender. The President was frequently called upon to address the students upon the pro- fanity and indecency of whispering in time of worship and other disorderly behavior He was also requested to forbid the throwing of water, ashes, or anything else from the windows of the college buildings. This was all in 1837 when military discipline was the thing, and if the young men left the college without permission his absence was made permanent. They were strict in some ways and gloriously broad-minded in others. When the boys drank beer, they were let off with a reprimand, the faculty thinking, no doubt, that they obtained it from godly men of good standing and were not so bad after all. But if they whispered in chapel, and were unashamed, they were sent home in disgrace. In 1837 it was the custom of the professors to meet at five o ' clock in the mornings to study French. On February 22, 1851, elaborate preparations were made for the observance of the Day of Prayer for Colleges — the first record of its kind in connection with the Uni- versity. The following is taken from the records. At the suggestion of the President it was voted that morning prayers be attended at 5:45. and that recitations be held immediately after. But those .are very old customs and have not quite withstood the test of time. 328 NINETEEN TWENTY SEVEN THE ATHENA SENIOR PARADE The traditions which we still hold today arc of a somewhat later adaption, although their origin comes down to us from very old New England customs. One ol these old traditions is the parade oi the Seniors during the last of The school year. Members of the faculty and the Senior class, wearing caps and gowns, lead the student body beneath the McGuff) I 1ms and up the main walk to the Chapel. Our founders would be more than gratified, could they see this imposing procession. Even the Freshmen have an ail ol dignity as they march two by two, at the end oi the line. This dignity is sometimes lost, however, not only by the Freshmen but by a few of the Sophomores in their attempt to find seats for the exercise which follows. At each succeeding Convocation until Commencement the Seniors appear in caps and gowns and occupy a reserved section. TAP DAY Tap Dav is usually Senior Day also. At this time selections are made for Torch- As every one knows, this is the men ' s honorary organization on the campus and it is the ambition of every man to be tapped. Not only must you be efficient in your studies and prominent in campus activities, but you must have an outstanding pcrson- alitv. If you are tapped for Torch you may be sure that you are receiving the highest appreciation for your effort extended toward your University. The procedure used in tapping is beautiful and mysterious. No one knows, not even the candidate, who is going to be chosen until the tapper marches down the aisle in Assembly and taps the fortunate youth. The girls also have something to work for. Their honorary organization is Cresset, and their requirements lor membership are very similar to those of Torch. Both organizations are commendable and have done much to raise the standards of Ohio University. TUG-OF-WAR Another event which is looked forward to with glee by some and dread by others is the annual tug- of- war between the freshmen and the Sophomores. Many people assemble to witness this struggle which is the result of a year ' s accumulation of enmities between the tun J asses The beauty of the State Hospital grounds is lost lor the members ol one ot the classes as they feel the icy water creep up around their waists. Defeat is bitter at any time, but especially so in cold water and at the hands of your worst rivals But. on the other hand, victory is glorious, and it ' s all a lot of fun. We vondering who will win this year. 329 N iiNb l t TWENTY THE ATH ENA SKIT SHOW Color, laughter, dances, songs, and happiness! That describes our Skit Show. A riot of fun for every one. This is one of the few things that is enjoyed by both the spectators and the performers. The various women ' s organizations on the campus prepare and give the skits. They are almost without exception, original and clever. The proceeds go to the League Loan Fund. The fourteenth big annual Skit Show was given March 25 and 2 6 at the Majestic Theater. This year we had an additional performance earlier in the season. The Sorority Pledges gave The Prep Follies, which was a great success. We hope it will become a tradition along with the Annual Skit Show. If you have never attended one of these events do not miss the next one for it will be a college memory which you will always cherish. FRESHMAN INSIGNIA If you are a Freshman, you will not have to be told what this insignia means, for upper classmen will have impressed you with both its meaning and its necessity. It means primarilv, that you are a Freshman. Its bright green shouts that to all the world. There is a green and white cap, with an especially long beak, which may be worn, but which is not ex actly the sort of thing recommended in What The Young Man Shall Wear. The more fastidious of our first-year men prefer the little green wool cap. and some of them are even rather good-looking in them. The girls wear a green arm band with a white O in the center. Most of them feel very proud of it. So when they have lived through their Freshman year and find that they must give up their childish things, they have it transferred to their bathing suits, or put in their Memory Books to serve as a pleasant memory of early college days. FOUNDERS DAY One hundred and twenty-two years is a good many, but through them all we have never forgotten our Founders, nor can we forget them. This was wild. Indian country when our first college brothers attended Ohio Universitv. What a privilege that was — to be the first men to attend the first college west of the Alleghenies. It was our Founders who made that privilege theirs and have given It to all of us who have followed. What could be more fitting than that we should officially recognize Founder ' s Day. This we are doing with exercises suitable for the occasion. The early life and history of the college, and its aim are usually brought out at these celebrations. 330 NINETEEN TWENTY SEVEN THE ATHENA.
