After days and nights of dreams, intermingled with great toil and almost cease-less trouloles, an annual is crystallized, which is, alas, much different from the one We thought would startle the world. But, after all, we have had in mind to produce for the student lnody what would he a memorial to its life spent on the campus and also to present to their minds in after years rememloran- ces of their joyous, happy and glorious college days.

'Twas last September, gone four years ago, They took the greenest timber fromethe woodsg And term by term they! hacked, and hewed, and 7 sawed, Cut off the knots, and set the planks in place, 1 Until at lastf they built the Senior Fleet. But ships they are of ultra-diverse kinds, As cruisers, gunboats, scows, and submarines, Launches and liners tramps' yet every one Designed for its peculiar freight and found Seaworthy in that same particular. And they shall sail upon an element Where islands strange and unfound continents Lift up their heads above the crested deep. And some perchance shall drift by pleasantly Through even seas Where placid atolls be While others drive along the dreary waste Where foamy thunder breaks on stormy reefs, Yet never again in any port shall they Be all assembled as they are today. So come that day to Commencement Bay When they launch this class in Spring And well speed each ship on its farewell trip With a happy christening. - Class Poet C265 ? il!

Under his administration the class has made some marked steps in progress. Everyone has worked for the betterment of the class, as well as for the welfare of its individual members, and much of this must be accredited to his superior executive ability. Old MQ. O. has no favorites, but is a friend to everyone, and in this way has won the esteem of the student body. lile is quiet and seemingly unconcerned, but is always on the alert and ready to grant a favor if it is in his power. He has held responsible ofhces in every organization with which he -has been connected and has always proved himself worthy. Rather frequently we hear him Hscaldn the profs, especially H-Iinglesf' and for this merit he has gained a distinction each year. It would not be fair to speak of his student life and not mal-te mentioniof his social career. During the first two years of his college life he was notlbothered with the fair sex, but in his Junior year Dan Cupid stepped in and, stung the boy aniawful pop, from whichllhe has never fully recovered, and indications are that he never will, Quincy expects to study for the Lutheran ministry, and we predict for him a bright future crowned 'with laurels of success and happiness. ,L .- . .,-jf r . l l Senior Class OSCAR FISHER BLACKWELDER Concord, N.

HK'-IJ This fairfheaded youth, one of the orators of his class, hails from The Land of the Long-Leaf Pine, and takes great pride in impressing this fact upon his hearers whenever the opportunity presents itself. l-le is' a very busy man, a good student, and his even flow of speech permits him to scald Professor Morehead with great regularity. One of' the best vocalists of the class. Belongs to the Glee Club and warbles in the Chapel Choir. Blaclcy is a warm-hearted fellow, wearing a smile so resem- bling Big Docs' that some are led to believe that the two smiles sprang from a common source. The fact must not be overlooked that Blaclcy has developed a decided taste for Southwest Vir- ginia apples, andwhenever he goes to Wytheville in quest of this favored fruit he never fails to overbicl his one competitor. Blaclcwelder has been with us only two years, but his free and easy manner, his genial nature and attractive personality have won him a host of friends. l-le expects to enter the min- istry, a work for which he is eminently fitted. 1 ' ' ' x '1 1-: 1 f ,. swf- . r !e,f5.ef2i. - .r- ,, ,. -f-.tc v'-I . it ..: I ll ir A.

Het has not only been adjudged by some as one of the handsomest men in the Cvlee Club, but also has the reputation of being the most dignified member of the Senior Class. In spite of this, he seems to have a great desire for classics, for he has pursued the study of Latin and Cureelc throughout his college course. He always responds to questions in class in the most deliberate and elfective manner. Besides this, he is a consistent and earnest worker in literary society and is a singer of no mean ability. There is, however, another side to this son of the Old Penn State who came to us as a Sophomore. His by heclcsu and twinkling eyes'are good indexes to his inner nature. Although naturally conservative, he has a warm heart and a kind and amiable disposition. We do not know whether it is his good looks, good rnature, or courtesy, that has .caused the downfall of certain Elizabeth College girls for whom he seemsrto haveia great affinity, but we do know tliat at tii-ribs he swearsfoff .and decides to live a studious and peaceable life.

Behold our Senior Kane! Excuse the pun, for Kane reminds- us of a senior cane in more ways than the sound of his name. There's nothing short about Kane. Oh, that his picture could reveal his true length! Short-story writer, poet, comedian, speaker, scholar, good sport, and gentleman. Though apparently very thin, Kane is hard to see through. Indeed, one of the most complex personalities in college. By unanimous vote he is .the wit of the college- community. The ideal exchange editor for a college magazine. Woe unto an exchange if that blistering sarcasm lets loose! Kane's sparkling wit in his after-dinner speeches in the gymnasium and delaatesin Literary Society has won the admiration of all who have been so fortunate as to hear him. A friend to everybody, a polished and cultu-red gentleman and a master at entertainment. He and his editor-in-chief lay for hours on inviting lounges and read poetry to each other, as Milton and Tennyson have often done, we fancy. ' We have often wondered just why they called him E.lisha. But, after all, there's nothing in a name. Kane demonstrated his horse sense when, having attendedlcornell two years, he returned to Old Roanoke for his 'bachelors degree. Elisha has a good capacity for .extra-curriculum work, his exchanges and short stories having contributed much to make the Collegian a success this year. But when He becomes famous as 'a short-story writer, Roanoke and Cornell will have to get a Solomon to decide the molheii of the child.

Qtten is a name that will linger long in the memories of many of Roanolce's sons. His genial, warm-hearted nature has Won its way into the hearts of many and there awakened an interest that will follow him as he goes out into the world. Recollections of the many happy social functions of the college community will always be made fonder as in our imagination we catch the melodious strains of Il Trovatore or Beethoven's lVlinuet and see again those big blue eyes turned upward as if to ring down from heaven some strain from the angel's harp. As a violinist he has rendered his full share to the Cllee Club and Orchestra. His development as an artist, however, has not prevented symmetry in his other attainments. I-le has won honors as a speaker and has maintained a standard in his college work of which he may be proud. Strong convictions, steady determination and systematic effort have been 'the characteristics of his college life, and are the qualities that will commend him rin his entijy iirltofthef Lutheran ministry.

DBX A Shenandoah Valley man, a humorist and singer of note, a brilliant student and speaker, and an all-round man--that's Cacl. Entering the Class of 'I7 in his Freshman year, he soon made a favor- able and lasting impression upon his professors and fellow-students as a man of clean habits, sound judgment, and deep convictions. HJ. A. is nnaturally gifted with an enormous amount of pep, which often reveals itself in the expression, Won't that get lem? He is also the possessor of a genial and obliging personality, which has won for him the reputation of being one of the most popular men in college. This popularity, however, is not confined to Roanoke College, for admirers of him are found among the students of the College on the Hill. Although Cad spends tlie time not alloted to his curriculum work of twenty hours per week behind the fountain at Dillard's Drug Store, he has taken an active part in most college activities. He is a member of the famous Campus Quartet, which holds its sessions on the Roanoke College campus, and which has been heard at unseemly hours of the night serenading the fair damsels of Elizabeth College. ,His work as Business Manager of the 1916 Roenlgen Rays is an excellent tribute to his business abilftyh and hisfreputation 'as a hard worker.

QBX Jerush has been a prominent figure in athletics at Roanoke during his entire college career. We shall always have vivid recollections of him as our Old Steam Roller fullback. He not only pos- sesses the honor of being the best fullback Old Roanoke ever produced, but was picked as a member of the all-star team of the South Atlantic championship for the season of 'l5, during which time he was Captain of Roanoke's team. His athletic ability is again 'revealed in the fact .that he has played the whole of every gridiron battle, excepting two, during his stay at Roanoke. Of all this may he be proud. But we quickly turn' from his athletic prowess to present his greater qualities both in personality and in his wooing ability. Quiet, modest and reserved, he is a man whom everyone admires, and his attractive personality has.won'for himixtlfle admiration and esteem of all. He remained immune to Cupid's darts till in his later college lifealwhen he surrendered more or less unresistingly.

QBX Ole 'Ady, or Reid, is one of the most popular students ever graduating -from Roanoke, his refined and genial manner having won for him the vote of the student body as the most popular student in college. ln athletics he has been a tower of strength to Old ,Roanokeg withou-t him she would never have reached such prominence in this sphere. Having won his R , in track, as well as in the three major sports, he may be considered the best all-round athlete in school. Football, track and basketball he has generaled, and during his leadership of basketball f'l6, the best team that Old Roanoke has ever hadj was turned out one which holds just claims to championship, both to Virginia and North Carolina. As a student he showed the same determination and will power that distinguished him in athletics. l V His wooing ability is too great to leave out, and in his pursuit of l..ove's young dream he has taken in consideration these three facts: A little Child shall lead them, Mprecious things are wrapped in small packagesg'A'i Of evils choose the least.

Bill is one of the most popular men of the Class of 'l7 and of R. C. as well, his cheery smile and hearty greeting having won for him a place in the hearts of all. Although he has been unsuccessful in winning a place on the Varsity teams, he is an ardent supporter of athletics and has taken a big part on the baseball team of 'l7. But it is in musical lines that he is a star, and for three years Bill has been a valuable member of the Glee Club. This year he won a much coveted place in that shining organization, the Chapel Choir. Bill is very much of a ladies' man, and here is where he cuts a big figure. One of his 'favorite songs is I Love the Ladies, and he surely practices what he. sings. Gazing into the crystal globe of the years to come, we see a brilliant future for this scientist, for Bill has been ,specializing in this work, and we cannot fail to see a great chemist or geologist in lhim.

Keys joined the Class of 'I7 at the beginning of the Junior year, coming from uthe great South- west. Az first he had no thought of entering into the pranks around College, but now there is no fellow in the class who-enjoys a joke better or delights more in pulling oft some college activity than Two Guns. He is rather quiet and unassuming, but beneath the exterior one finds a sound student and an untiring worker. Starting at Roanoke under a heavy handicap, he was able toihnish three years' work in two. Since his time has been greatly occupied with his studies, he could not deyote much of it to athletics or the fair sex. He is about the only member of the class who has not thus far succumbed to Cupid's darts. He has been, however, a hearty supporter of athletics and has managed to play with the class football team. Keys has taken great advantage of the literary society and has come to be numbered with the few good debaters of the College. He is an extremely logical thinker. Has a big, warm heart, and is a true friend. Keys expects to teach-fog a few' years and then take up law, in whicliprofession we ifeel sure that success awaits him.

Arthur is ihe energetic class member, fond of organization. l-le has the reputation of possessing 'iplenty of steam, and at class time it usually displays itself in the form of a l00-yard dash across the campus. Arthur is a strong student and has developed his intellectual powers into avenues of keen thought and decision. ln his Junior year he was awarded the prize scholarship for marked attain- ments in English, and he may look upon his scholastic record with a feeling of satisfaction. But Linn is also a great supporter of college activities. l-le has managed the Collegian and Braclfeiy-Acff during their most successful year, and has been of great value in aiding the class in its business affairs. This Tar Heel 'has a great appreciation for anything aesthetic. l-le is the ubasso .profunclou in the College quartette and is a firm believer in organizing the harmony about the campus. We believe he likes to Serenade Elizabeth, and we take it for granted that there is someone there from the South- west who especially inspires his song. ln the Glee Club, Arthur is a valuable man and has given every aid to the success of the organization.

EP Watts, although young in years and youthful in appearance, is a well-all-round developed college man. He has wonderful powers of concentration, is noted for his capacity for worlc, and more especially as a curlern in HStumpyls history class, which is rather a' unique distinction. He is popular because there is some real worth in'all he has to say. l-le is opinionated, confident and volulole, though solid and instructive. He is tireless and conscientious in labor. and his cheerfulness is constant and contagious. Both inside and outside of the curriculum, he is somewhat of a wonder. When it comes to debating, it makes no difference which side Watts is on, hex delivers the goods in a most effective and forceful manner. I-le is a most reliable friend, and one to be desired. Though slow in forming friendships, they are of nature. He possesses a charming vein of manly good fellowship.

This sturdy son of the soil came to us four years ago fresh from the farm in the upper Shenandoah Valley, and, according. to his own expression, was too green to burn. He has been distinguished from the very beginning by his brilliant success as a student, and a Napoleonic ability to 'imalce his own circumstances. In spite of a tre- mendous budget of work every year, he never fails to pull down the high ones, 'iscaldingn his beloved professors with astonishing regularity. But being a distinction man every year has not made Doodle a boolcworm. Far from it. With a guitar in his lap and a light in his eyes, he may often be found entertaining a most appreciative audience with a seemingly inexhaustible supply of popular airs and old Southern folk songs. L Womel belies his Dutch name by displaying on all occasions a wit and humor that is almost Irish. pls skillful in argument and relentless in repartee. Takes a friend's advice and does not try to put anything over on him. To know this young sprout is to'like him, and the longer you know him the better you like him. 7 Doodle has not been very active in Salem social circles, butvfor this there's a reason.

QBX The- old saying that the best things are always wrapped up in small packages is indeed exemplified in Little Sol. Ever since the beginning of his college career he has rapidly and surely won the respect and friendship of his fellow-students. His pleasing personality, his fairness and honesty in his dealings with others, coupled with a tinge of friendly sarcasm, have won for him the esteem of all with whom he has come in contact. Although not a letter man, Fred is an athlete of no mean ability, having played successfully on class teams of all the major sports. In the classroom he is noted for his brielistraightforward and right- to-the-point manner of answering, which has always made the profs sit up and take notice, and has enabled him' at all times to malce creditable grades. ' Little Sol has not especially starred as a Usociety king since his advent in Salem, the reason we are unable to guess, for when occasion demands he is always there with the goods. Perhaps a fair ,damsel awaits him in his home town, or possibly he is only biding his time until a more favorable maxtrirrgonialz gpfportunity presents itself. , 4 Q X I 5' lperseveifariceq and deterjjiinationig We-precgct for him awsuccessful future in his chosen pfdiiiisiqxifdf sivillmjpeeringgt A E ,EF - t l ' - ' ,s . - V, - W 1. t 1 t- , - .. .., 'wi-gf .N - . . -r 1- I .' .I 4 s 3 .-- F .A -wi Senior Class Dom.

DBX When you meet a rather tall, brown-eyed, handsome fellow, it will surely be Zirkle. A congenial, interesting conversationalist, a good sport, an athlete, a student and gentleman. l-le has taken a part in all the lmajor sports, and as a track man has won some honors. As a student he is industrious and possesses a lot of ability. l-le is a live wire in literary society and very active in those organizations of which he is a member. He has accumulated quite a great deal of practical business ability through his representation as agent of the College Novelty Company: If you run across him, his smile and pleasant manner will at once win you as a friend. When he becomes animated several by gums are sure to slip into the discussion. His cheerful disposition has won for him many friends among the fair sex, of Elizabethjtgollege and of Roanoke. l 1 ' ' Zirlglle- decided definitely' just,what vocation he will elect.

' A f Sf H' l Y Y .a' A L Senior Class Prophecy HE summer was well nigh spent and the rich green foliage was rapidly being changed into a golden brown The birds had changed their springtime greeting into a song of approaching farewell The crystal sky showed no signs of an approaching storm and large crowds of school children who had just been enjoying the pleasures of vacation, marched reluctantly up the steps of the schoolhouse. The whole atmosphere was filled with fond recollections of the pleasures which the summer had afforded. Amidst all these changing scenes I found myself deeply buried in the thoughts that stillecl my voice-the thoughts of my college days. A chill of happiness swept over my whole body as I began in silence to call the old class roll. The names and faces were so familiar that I could see them all seated in the classroom just as they were fifteen years ago. A moment's pause, and I walked slowly down to the hospital, where I was engaged most of my time. Upon approaching the bedside of one of my patients, who was rapidly recovering from an operation which I had performed several weeks before, I was asked to accompany him home for a few days until he was entirely out of danger. I was sur- prised at his request, for he lived in Charlotte, VN. C., which was several hundred miles distant, so I told him I would give him a definite answer on the morrow, when he was expecting to leave. 4 I went to my office, and while thinking the matter over it occurred to me that on my return trip I would get a chance to see some of my former classmates, so this made me all the more determined. ' I resolved to go, and the next morning we left Baltimore at 7:30 and arrived in Charlotte late in the evening. It was a nice trip,,but my patient was almost worn out from its effects. I stayed at his home for four days and was satisfied that he was safe under the care of his local physician, so I left for the station early on the morning of the fifth day in order to see some of the city before train time. At the corner of Trade and Tryon Streets l met old B. Miller, and at once felt that my expectations were being fulfilled. He was employed as a civil engineer by the Southern Power Company, and was going to Salisbury on the same train with me. We talked over matters on the short trip and arrived in Salisbury about noon. l found that the United Synod of the South was meet- ing there, and resolved to attend the afternoon session. Upon entering the church I was surprised to see Rev. O. Lyerly, D.D., presiding over'the synod with no less dignity than he had over the old class meetings. The first speaker of the afternoon was Rev. O. F. Blackwelder, of Concord, N. C., who had lost none of his flowery eloquence. The second speaker was Rev. K. P. Otten, whose address on Constructive Religion was both elevating and inspiring. After the afternoon session we all went to the hotel and C553 had a pleasant evening until time for the last session, which was held at 8 o'clock. I had intended to leave that evening, but was forced to stay when I learned that Rev. Walker, of Roanoke, and Rev. A. Linn, D.D., were to make the final addresses. After hear- ing the two celebrated speakers of the evening we all had a most pleasant social gathering, talking over old times. V The next morning I took the first train for Roanoke, and whom should I meet but C. O. P. Trexler, now President of M. P. C. I. I-Ie was soliciting students for the institution, and came with me as far as Lynchburg. Upon arriving at Lynchburg, I found that my train was three hours late, so I walked up the street to see the sights, I noticed a sign which read, B, G. Watkins, Mayor, and immediately proceeded into the office of the distinguished executive. I found him talking with C. E. Stone, one of the most prominent farmers of that section. It was a real pleasure to see these old friends again, and during, our conversation I learned that A. L. Stone had just been made Common- wealthis Attorney of Campbell County. It was now about train time, so I hastened to the station in time to catch the train. I came on to Roanoke, which, of course, was no strange place to me. Upon arriv- ing I saw Rev. F. W. Shirey, D.D., who was one of the Trustees of Roanoke College and had been in Salem on business. He was the same old Doc,,' and still had that intelligent look. I talked with him until his train left, and then walked downtown to see whom I could find. On passing the First National Bank Building I noticed a sign on one of the windows-HL. L. Rishell, Attorney at Law. Immediately I approached his office, only to findlhim working up a very mysterious murder case. I was later told that he was one of the best criminal lawyers in Southwest Virginia. It was onlyinatural for me to want to see the Trout Hospital again, and after leaving Rishell's ofhce I walked around to this well-known institution. Upon entering I was told that Dr. H. M. Powell was the head surgeon. I-le was very busy, but after much protest I was admitted to his office. Henry had not grown much, but I could see that he was an important man from the number of interruptions that were made during our conversation. As I-lenryi' and I were both in the cutting business, you can imagine that we had no little pleasure in relat- ing our experiences. just after dinnerDr. Powell took me out to Salem in his machine, and we at once went up to see the old Alma Mater. It was not the same, by any means. The atmos- phere was filled with progress, and the institution showed marks of wonderful development. After a long talk with E. K. Kane, who was now President of the Young University, I found that Dr. Lloyd Womeldorph. Ph.D., was,at the head of the Department of His- tory and Economics, and that Dr. D. M. Zirkle, Ph.D., was Professor of Moral and Social Philosophy. I talked with both of these renowned professors and was gratified to note the progress which was being made in their respective departments. Dr. Powell had been called bdck to Roanoke, so I walked down town to see some of my friends. On Main Street I met George Moyer, who was home on a vacation. I-Ie was now employed I C565 as an electrical engineer by the N. fx W. R. R. I asked him about Hjoshy' Wood, and was gratified to know that Josh had a large family and was enjoying life as Commis- sioner of the Revenue of Roanoke County. After a most pleasant afternoon in Salem, I went back to Roanoke to catch a train for Washington. All the'old scenes of the city looked familiar as I walked up to the station. just before train time I saw Jews Bonham. I-le was attending a farmers' meeting in Roanoke and was going to Washington on the same train with me. Hjerusn was now State Commissioner of Agriculture, and was one of the most prominent men in the busi- ness. We took the train, and though the trip was rather long, it was a very enjoyable one for me. I learned that Reid Duncan was head coach at Harvard and that W. C. I-luddle was Professor of Geology at the University of Pennsylvania. I asked Jews if he met any of the boys on his journeys, and he told me that he had seen C. M. Gardner, who now owned one of the best farms in Northern Virginia and was very successful in his work. We arrived in Washington early the next morning, after a night of conversation instead of sleep. ' After breakfast we went down the street to see the sights of the Capital City. Later we attended a joint meeting of Congress, which was now in session. There we saw Carson Keys, Speaker of the I-louse, and Robert Lee Rosenbalm, a Senator from Virginia. Instead of Congress, it seemed like home to see these former classmates again. Later we saw William C. Robinson, a celebrated, silver-tongued lawyer from South Carolina. He was now Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. Willie still retained that dignity which was characteristic of him during his college days. The pleasures of the morning now being spent, I was forced reluctantly to say farewell to the boys, so I hastened to the station to get a train for Baltimore. On the way I met Fred Wyse, who was now in the Government's service as a civil engineer. Old Fred and I had a fine chat until train time. I-Ie said that he had just received a letter from Max I-Iuddle, and that he was President of the Chase National Bank of New York. I boarded my train for Baltimore and arrived in time for a late dinner. After eating a big meal I went to the Peabody Institute, where R. R. Buck was Instructor of Instru- mental Music. I told Raymond, about my trip, and just the thoughts seemed to make him enjoy it, too: ' After hearing him play a fewg classical selections I went back to my office only to hnd about two weeks? work awaiting me. This did not offend me, for I felt as though I could go to work with new Zeal, since I had spent the most enjoyable vaca- tion of my life, seeing and talking with my old classmates of Roanoke College. I sat down before my desk to look over the letters which were lying there. In a moment I found my whole being usurped by a state of solitude. Gazing blindly through the wind-ow, I realized that my whole heart was longing for the return of the happiest days of my life-my college days-and as I sat there amidst the bustling noise of the city my only hope was for the welfare and success of each member of the Class of 'l 7.

Like aH classes vve are pasdng slomdy, but surely, through the inevitable grinding stages of college life, gradually nearing the climax. - - The Hrst period of our history was- the era of verduref, ln this stage we were large in thoery, yet small in intellect. But we soon found ourselves, rnade necessary adjushnenm, and began to broaden our hneHectual honzon. ' Besides, we managed to tuck away the basketball championship and beat the HSophsH nithe annual debate As is usually the case, many of our number lost step and failed to enter with us into the era of imperialism. Yet we were a husky band of Despots.,' We could look tough, talk boldly, and show our pep The baseball championship and the debate honors again went to us. But old Father Time only looked with a chiding, smiling countenance upon our peuy folhes and hurded us joyfuHy on, a sniaHer band, kno the mera of pendveness We are now in the midst of that era and have at last arrived at the great realization that life requires more than trembling submission and noisy suppression. Substantial thought and achon have been the resuhs. Vve are ahnod ready for that MMI broader era of college-life, the era of so-lemnity and wisdomf' A brief, concrete description of the record we have established will show that we stand for the development of the college man in the broadest sense. As for athletics, the Class of '18 can shovv her fuH, equal share of representadves on aH the Xfarhty teams, while several class championships have come her way. ln scholarship, we have indeed established an enviable record, always showing more than our proportional share of distinction men. As previously stated, we have been invincible in debate, easily win- ning both contests that we engaged in. To complete our ideal of college life, we are well represented in the Glee Club, Orchestra, Y. M. C. A.-in fact, in all college acdvides that are vvordi vvhde. Although we are comparatively small in number, we are large in spirit and action. And when we shall have completed our fourth era of college life we shall and will go out into the world with that same broad view of life that we have maintained in our college career. HISTORIAN.

NIINNICK C717 I Sophomore Class History LMOST two years have elapsed since the Class of 'I9 met on the campus for the first time. We gathered there as a struggling bunch of Rats,,' and I guess we were about as green as St. Patrick's emblem. We were soon efficiently organized, however, and under the colors of gold and maroon have ever remained true and loyal to the class. While it is not in con- formity with college traditions to allow Rats to sport, yet the Rats of 'I9 were prominent among the fairer sex, and more than one pair of eyes glared at us with envy while we were making merry with our fairer com- panions. At the opening of the session of l9l6-l9l7 this former Freshman Class, minus a few prominent members Qincluding the former President and Vice-Presidentl, arrived at Old Roanoke, this time as Sophomores. The men of this class have demon- strated their attainments in numerous ways, only a few of which can be mentioned here. ln the first place, the ordinarily knotty problem of controlling the Rats presented new difficulties because of the recent ruling of the college authorities against hazing. The Sophomores were, however, able to cope with the situationg indeed, so skillfully did they manage the matter that the Rats gave practically no trouble. And under the tutelage of the Sophs these awkward specimens of humanity are beginning to look like Roanoke students, and in time that which now seems impossible fthe moss that per- sistently clings to themj may be permanently brushed away. Not only have the Sophomores acquitted themselves creditably in handling the Rats, but they have also maintained their record of the preceding year in athletics. This year we beat the RatsH in football, but lost out to the Seniors. But it is a safe bet that we are going for the championship in both basketball and baseball. Not on the athletic field alone did we win numerous victories. In our classes we have exhibited the same dauntless spirit and determination. Notwithstanding the fact that the Sophomores have been prominent in many outside enterprises they have not been found wanting when weighed in the class-room. Recognizing the true aim in college life, we have pursued it in the proper spirit, our athletics serving to make the work more interesting and beneficial. The men of ,I9 are men who shirk no duty, however dis- agreeable it might beg men who, in all college struggles, may be found where the smoke is thickestg men who may be relied upon to go. out into the world and cope with life's problems. And now, almost at the close of this session, when we look back upon the year's dihgent edorm, H is vvhh genuine sadsfacdon that vve recognize that our class has been one of energy and acdon, and not one of duggkh despondency. XXGth dns bdefrnen- tion of the events in our history as they have occurred, the present historian is content to let the facts speak for themselves, feeling that nothing could add or detract from the reputation thus far secured by the Class of l9l9.

JOHNSON L. P. KLOPP 6779 Freshman Class History N the fourteenth of September, l9l6, a large band of green young men gathered on the campus of Old Roanoke, coming to reinforce that already large army that has preceded us in the quest for knowledge. Immediately my on our arrival we paid a visit to the Business Room, where we greeted Big fb Doc and matriculated. We soon were sent to Prof. Mann, the treasurer. Gb 'who at once divested us of nearly all, our cash. After this we were left to the tender mercies of the Sophs, the professors and the daily routine. Our first few nights were enlivened by the visits of the Sophomores, who came to welcome us into their midst, and, incidentally, to give us some excellent training in extemporaneous speaking, debating and singing. This, of course, frightened us some- what, but very soon our fears were calmed by a refreshing walk under the starry heavens to either gather some apples for our Sophomore friends or visit the cemetery. During the third week of college, when we were becoming bolder and thinking of fixing on our watchfobs and pennants the significant symbol of '20, we were properly dressed for the annual Rafi parade and marched through the streets of Salem yelling l-log-Ratf, At Dillard's corner we were persuaded to give a programme which con- sisted of almost everything from the playing of a g'Steam-Pianol' to dancing a jig. From there we marched to Elizabeth College, where we gave a similar programme. We then returned to the dormitory, feeling that after all it was no bad thing to be a Roanoke College 'LRat. I On September 20th we assembled in Prof. Carpenterls class-room for the purpose of electing officers. At a later meeting we selected our class colors-Purple and Gold. The Class of '20 has done exceedingly well in athletics. We played the Sopho- mores in a close game of football, and we are looking forward to the basketball and baseball games with much enthusiasm, feeling sure that we will come out on top in at least one of these, if not in both. Two of our men made their R's in football, and several more were represented on the second team. Likewise have we performed well in our class-room work, as our grades for the first Semester show that several among our number have made distinctions. The Class of '20 has two aimsg the first to make its mark in the wide world, and the second, to glorify Old Roanoke. HISTORIAN.

'V I 'ifn 'i':i' ii'fff'f7i if K' I -Q-4 : EDITORIAL T this juncture let us be permitted to add a word of apology. There have been many changes made in this year's book, and we sincerely hope they will meet with approval. The great majority of changes, we take the courage to admit, are of our own thought and initiative, but several conditions have intervened during the course of the year which have necessitated our making several additional changes. We regret very much our inability to present to our readers a special picture of Coach Spruhan. A picture of the interior of the library is also wanting. Added to this is the fact that we are obliged to use cuts of the two literary society halls which have, with the exception of last year, appeared in previous Annuals with much regularity. Cur only excuse is that we were unable to get the proper cuts to hand before the book went to press. Wim?

Unlike our classmates, we're forcecl to ride, Not Latin ponies, that you mount astride, But the Old Trolley Car with all her shocks, Round Salem curves the olcl thing rocks. But herels to our home, Old Roanoke Town! Try all you may, you can't keep her clown. You can het your boots if you haven't a shoe Though you can'l come up to us, we do come up to you. mm 1?

In every branch of sport Roanoke has conducted herself in a manner of which she might well be proud, and she has continued to turn out teams which would be a credit to much larger colleges than Roanoke. There is no question but that strong and well-rounded men have repre- sented Roanoke College in every phase of her sporting activities. It is dem- A onstrated year after year that in spite of loss by graduation of high-grade stars, there are always other sturdy and sterling underclassmen who can step in the ranks and fill the vacancies with honor. Coach Spruhan, as usual, must be given the credit for moulding teams of unusual merit. No matter how good men may be in natural talent, only the best results can be achieved by good and proper teaching, and in this field of endeavor our Coach is a master hand. No small honor is due this son of Indiana, who has entered into the Roanoke spirit with characteristic energy and loyalty. FOOTBALL Football at Roanoke College for several years past has been of an exceptionally high order. Having met and defeated during this time such formidable teams as Catholic University and Gallaudet, and holding North Carolina A. 8: M. and Virginia Polytechnic Institute to tie scores, our elevens have been looked upon by other institutions as one of the strongest college teams in the South, and Roanoke students have not been slow to realize the honor which is due Roanoke's football warriors. Perhaps it was this that prompted the large number of would-be gridiron heroes to report for practice at the beginning of the season. But whatever the motive, enthusiasm ran high among Varsity adherents when the 1916 squad of football artists presented them- selves for the season,s campaign. Many of the l9l5 heroes were missing from the ranks, and the Coach and students alike felt the loss of nine R men of the previous season, all of whom were towers of strength in the greatest team that ever represented old Roanoke on the gridiron. And it was Coach Spruhan who realized more than anyone else that it was an almost impossible task to fill the places of Norman, O'Flaherty, Roe, Hoffman, Davidson and others. Only four letter men remained as a nucleus around which to build a team that was to face one of the hardest schedules a Maroon and C-ray team has ever known. Within a few weeks, however, two veterans of previous seasons, Anspach and Krieger, had reported, and Duncan, whose illness had kept him away from college, put in his appearance, then another Maroon team began to evolve. 41503 Among the number of aspirants who reported were stars of the l9l5 class teams and new men who had already attracted attention in their respective schools. Foremost among these were Easter, of Randolph-Macon Academy: Chapman, of Massanutten Academyg Smith, of Susquehanna University, and Hollingsworth, of Fitzgerald and Clarke Academy. The season opened on our home grounds, September 23, with Randolph-Macon Academy. Roanoke experienced little difficulty 'in winning by a 28-to-7 score. This opening game was a rather poor exhibition, owing to the frequent fumbles on the part of both teams, but it served to show up the strong and weak points in Roanoke's line-up. Jerusalem Bonham was the bright star of the game. He plowed Randolph-lVIacon's line at will and scored three of the four touchdowns. Easter, also, played a fine game against the team on which he starred the year before. September 30 found the Maroons at Raleigh in what promised to be the first real test of their strength. A. Sc M. was their worthy opponent, and this strong Southern team, which was held scoreless the previous season, knew that a fierce battle was in store for them. But excessive heat and a foreign field proved fatal to the hopes of all Roanokers. The entire team fought gamely in spite of adverse conditions. ln fact, the Maroon team completely outplayed her heavier opponents in the first half, but was finally forced to accept a I3-to-3 defeat. When we remember that this first big game was played so near the beginning of the season that Anspach had not yet arrived to don a uniform, and that Jerusalem played while his temperature was soaring above the IOO mark, we do nlot wonder at the final score. . The third game resulted in a 42-to-Z victory over the Belmont Athletic Club of Roanoke. Straight football was resorted to in this uneven, though interesting, contest on the Collegian's field. Bunting, Bonham and Anspach were the particular stars of the game, and Krieger's kicking was perfect. Roanoke College suffered her second defeat of the season on Cctober Zl at the hands of Washington and Lee at Lexington. The game ended in a 33-to-0 victory for the Generals. The contest from start to hnish was hard fought and much more exciting than the score indicates. W. 61 Lfs superiority in the execution of the forward pass was mainly responsible for her victory, only one touchdown being due to straight football. The Maroons gained more on end runs than her much heavier opponents. In this game the work of Bunting at quarter, Jerus at fullback and Sam Bonham at tackle featured. October 28 proved to be another disastrous day for Roanoke. Davidson College, with the best team in her history, journeyed to the city of Roanoke to battle with the Maroons. Our team was not in the best condition for the game, owing to injuries to several of our men, and seemingly lacking the teamwork by which they had on previous occasions won fame, the Maroons battled to a final acceptance of a 20-to-0 defeat. Anspach's offensive playing and tif work of Easter on the defense were features of the game. It was the game with Gallaudet in Roanoke, November ll, that the Maroons showed the best form of the season. They completely outclassed their opponents from C1515 the Capital City and won by the score of 45 to 0. The teamwork, which was lacking in the Davidson game, was again in evidence. The playing of the Maroon backheld featured the contest. Captain Duncan played in his old-time form. Anspach at quarter handled the team in great style, and his broken-field runs were spectacular. Bunting, playing at halfback, made several long gains, being especially efficient in receiving for- ward passes. Jews showed his Steamroller tactics and made consistent gains through Gallaudet's line. On November I8 Roanoke lost the final game of her season to V. P. I. at Blacks- burg by the score of 4I to 0. Although outweighed fifteen pounds to the man, the Ma- roons fought hard throughout the contest. In the third quarter, with four of the regular players out of the game, they advanced the ball to the Tech's twelve-yard line. This last game was marred by accidents to several ofthe Maroonsg Bunting, Duncan, Chap- man and Cadwallader sustaining injuries which made their early retirement from the game necessary. Anspach and Bonham starred for Roanoke, and the defensive playing of Rhyne and S. Bonham was notable. The victory for V. P. I. has been accredited to Gardner, a professional player, who was later ruled off the team, for it was his great playing that brought defeat to the Maroons. ' The l9l6 foo-tball season is passed and is now a part of history. The team which represented Roanoke College on the gridiron was not the best she ever had. Neither was it the most successful. But it was a team that never gave up or lost heart even in the face of overwhelming odds. The defeats registered against it were the inevitable results of football battles in which greater strength, weight and experience of teams rep- resenting much larger colleges and universities were called into play, and it is not to the dishonor of Roanoke football reputation to have had the doughty warriors of l9l6 step on the field. BASKETBALL When the basketball season opened, prospects for a winning team were exceedingly slim. No-t only did we have the unprecedented success of the great champions of last year to maintain, but we also faced the fact that only two men of that team had returned to college-and one of them was handicapped by a severe knee injury. Yet, withal, the prospects soon began to brighten. With Sam Bonham, Reid Duncan and Cy Brown, an R man of two years ago, as a nucleus, Coach Spruhan began as usual to mould another winning aggregation. Jerusalem Bonham easily took a regular place at guard, his brother Sam being shifted to center, while the ever-reliable Duncan kept to his old position at guard. Cy Brown was assigned to his former position at forward, with Benn Painter, brother to the great Ced of champion fame, landed the other forward job. Verily, here was the making of a team to be feared, especially since it had such splendid reserves as Rhyne, Wilkes and Burch to H11 up any loopholes. C1521 It was soon evident that Roanoke would be on the basketball map again. Out of eight Varsity games played during the season, only one showed that we were on the small end. Qur usual practice game with Daleville was easily won by the score of 51 to I6. Hampden-Sidney College gave us a little scare on the lZth of January, but the Maroons, presenting the old fighting stuff, came out victors I4 to 9f The URed Men from Wil- liam and Mary College came next. No little interest was manifested in this game, since the Williamsburg men won the championship in the Eastern Collegiate League last season. But Roanoke started with a rush, and the Indians never had a chance of winning. The final score stood 54 to 8 in Roanoke's favor. The Yellow Jackets from Randolph- Macon came to us on the Znd of February. Although they had defeated Hampden- Sidney, our hitherto strongest opponents, we had little trouble in defeating them to the 'tune of 48 to I3. The next two games, with Virginia Christian College and Shepherd College, were comparatively easy, and the results were one-sided scores of 55 to I6 and 69 to 9, respectively. During all these games 'Sami' Bonham, Painter and Brown per- formed in brilliant style, while Duncan and Ulerusn were covering themselves with glory by keeping their opponents from their baskets. Our biggest game of the season was played at Lexington against Washington and Lee University. The Fates were against us. With Duncan out of the game because of tonsilitis, and Ben Painter out because of a bad eye, we were unable to present our usual strength. However, the Maroons fought nobly and the Generals were more than tglad to get away with a 38 to I5 score. The final game of the season, played at Lynch- burg against Virginia Christian College, resulted in another victory when the scoreboard showed that we had 46 points to their l4. Thus another successful basketball season has gone down in history for Old Roanoke. To say that our I9l6-191 7 team compares favorably with the old champs is indeed say- ing enough, but when one considers that this year's team was practically new, while the previous years' team was made up of veterans who had played together for three years, it reliects more than a little credit upon the coach and the hard-working men who have upheld the reputation of Roanoke in basketball. BASEBALL Inasmuch as the annual is obliged to go to press before the opening of the baseball season, we can venture to say little about this great popular sport. We can, however, give a brief of conditions and perhaps suggest a few predictions. All the letter men of last year are back with the exception of Tavenner, last year's captain, who graduated, but his loss will be keenly felt. The battery is again on deck, with Captain Craft on the tiring line and Jerusalem Bonham or White Rhyne receiving behind the bat. lnhelders Wat- kins, Beach and I-lorine are out for their old jobs at first base, second base and shortstop, respectively, while the veterans, Max l-luddle and Reid Duncan, are sure to look after left field and center Held in their old-time style. These men are augmented by a host of new 41533 candidates, several of them showing up in brilliant fashion. Muse is likely to land the third base job, as he shows all the earmarks of a promising player. Wingert, Wilkes, Lyerly, Peters and several others are likely to make it hot for some of the veterans. Indeed, although this article is written after some days of practice, we cannot help but feel that this year's team is going to keep pace with Roanoke's athletic activities and help to keep its fame on that high plane which it has established for itself in the last few years. TRACK This form of athletics, which has been given a great impetus by the splendid show- ing of last yearfs men, is swiftly mounting to take 'its place beside the major athletics at Roanoke College. Almost the only form of track athletics which heretofore made its appearance around the campus was the field day 'held around commencement time, and then there were so few students around that the sport was regarded very lightly. Last year the first successful effort was made to have Roanoke represented at a competitive scholastic meet, and the boys acquitted themselves very creditably, considering the infancy of conditions, by taking third place at the Richmond meet. Although the first call for candidates goes out in a day or so, Physical Director Morton and Captain Zirkle are confident that some valuable material will represent Roanoke this year, inasmuch as the excellent nucleus from last year's team will be increased by some very likely men who have entered college this year. At any rate, we expect the Roanoke track team to be prominent in this sport this year, and as time gives us more experience we hope to turn out some real champion teams. fu fill W f . . ,ig s -il C1545 Coach Guy l-l. Spruhan F we will but take a retrospective view of athletics here at Roanoke Col- lege and follow where our mind's eye leads us, we will soon discover at that we now stand on the highest pinnacle of l:ame's fair temple, gaz- -vu . . . . ' ,' mg down into the Valley of Rejuvenescence, where the Athletic 5 ' Flower sprang up as a rose in June and continued to spread and develop I until at present we behold it, full grown, standing out in all its splendor, XJ beauty and magnificence. The downcast visages of Roanoke students are seen to brighten and take on a brilliant luster as they allow their minds to be filled with the thoughts of the wonder and charm of this splendid scene. Where the effect is great, the cause must needs be great! However well developed and highly polished is this beautiful picture, it is of no great antiquity. For ,four long years the artist has been laboring to win for himself and his master the pride and fame which the completion of this masterpiece brings. So-upon you, Coach Spruhan, do we bestow all honor, praise and credit, as you proceed to put the finish- ing touches to this image. ' I To develop a scene like this we must know the constituents and different tints that enter into its makeup. The materials must be at hand. But this is not enough. The artist must be able to mix these different paints in their proper proportions to give the desired effects. I-le must also be capable of handling the brush so as to delineate and give a high touch of refinement. We do not hesitate for a moment in attributing the notable achievement in large measure to the faithful and efficient serv- ices of Coach Spruhan. We not only admire his artistic traits as revealed in his ability as a coach, but we are equally proud to relate that his telling sarcasm, cour- age, persistence and manliness have won for him the admiration, respect and benevo- lent affections of the faculty, students and friends of Roanoke College. We salute you, noble Irishmen, and place upon your deserving brow the laurels of Athletic Honors! You have done your part well, and may the next gale that sweeps from the Old College in l9l7-l9l8 bring the good tidings that another painting has been successfully finished by the great and wonderful hand that now sways the brush! 41559 Football Schedule for Season l 91 7 DATE OPPONENTS PLACE Sept ct Oc! ci Nov Nov Nov Nov 29 Randolph Macon Academy Vlfglllla Christian College North Carolma A Sz M Kmg College VIYQIHIB Mxlltary lnshtute Washxngton and Lee Umversxty Cmullforcl College fpenclmg Vlfglhla Polytechmc Instltute 156 At Home At Home Away At Home Away Away At Home Away -A I-Y 'VP-N, 1 pr igv 'W 0'-'m'I1 X 'gil'-.2551 ' H ' -.Q'i-iff -' I ' I l V x 'w K 1 j A 'yo A . fjQQ 'i1iQ- I il I i QQ l 'C O ,. 20- 'V I A, ...... . .' . . . f ' Oeil 27-Catholic?

DUNCAN-Manager, Captain and Right Halfbaek-The remarkable record of receiving twelve letters during his col- lege course proves Ol Watly's title to being the best athlete in college. For five years his excellent work both at halfback and tackle has featured. Reid's power- ful stride and 185 pounds of solid muscle have made him the hardest man on the team to tackle. Is an adept at solving opponents' plays and intercepting forward passes. An all-around man, a member of basketball, baseball and tracks teams. Graduates this year and will he sorely missed. L. BONHAM-Left Tackle-Captain-elect. Sam, with his six feet and 180 pounds, is beyond a doubt the hardest, surest and swiftest charging man on the line. Stands in a class by himself when it comes to opening up a hole for a line plunge. Has outplayed every opponent he has faced this year. The opening left by the grad- uation of big Norman of last year has been well filled by Sam, and he can't be stopped when he st-ts out to get his man. A quiet, unassuming, big-hearted fellow. Third year on the Varsity and unanimously elected to lead next year's team. H. SPRUHAN-Coach-The man behind the guns. B. BONHAM-Fullback-Captain of the 1915 team. 1Ve have yet to see 'a line which he cannot plough for consistent gains. Je1'ush this session completes five years on Roanokes Varsity-years of glorious achievement centering around this star among stars. Roanoke's won- derful fullbackf' Jerusalem's steam- rollor tactics, Mentioned for All- South-Atlantic honors, fail to con- vey a full conception of the playing ability of this hero and the universal admiration, esteem and confidence with which he is regarded at Roanoke. Bonham plays a remarkable game, whether smashing an opponenfs line or on defense. The graduation of Roan- okc-'s Greatest Football Player will make an awful gap which will bc hard to fill. BUNTING--Left Halfback-Captain of the 1914 team. Chine was one of the team's mainstays, a beautiful broken- field runner, a fine man to lead the inter- ference and an unsurpassable defensive player. Has played quarterback for sev- eral years and has the reputation of be- ing the best in the State, but shifted to halfback because of his adaptability. Can outgucss an opponent nine times out of ten. Weighs but 145. fast as lightning, and possesses a superabundance of gray- matteri' One of the stars around whom has been developed Roanoke's great teams.

VV. KRIEGER-Center-Used his 196 pounds of muscular energy, together with his knowledge and experience, to great advantage. Played almost every position on the teanl. 'Was a tower of strength at center, and, in addition, did the punting. In this he never was outdistanced, and often approached the sixty-yard mark. Has a word ol' encouragement and shows lots of pep in every game. The only Roanoke man who has ever carried the ball across V. P. I.'s goal line, perform- ing this stunt two years ago. The mar- ried man of the squad, a musician and all-around good fellow. Third year'on Varsity and next yea:-'s prospect. F. CADVVALLADER-Right Guard- Frank is a living example of what hard work and stick-to-it-iveness will do to bring success. Weiglis only 160, but is one' of the hardest charging men on the line, Landed his berth after three years-of fight, and has since proved his worth. Has faced some of the strongest linemen in the South with lots of credit. Quiet, unassuming, a hard student and a man of excellent parts. First year on Varsity and finishes next year. G. B. ANSPACH-Quarterback-After an ab- sence of three years from a Maroon uni- form, the call of the blood brought Cookie back to Roanoke. The inval- uable and brilliant work of his previous stay was handed down with awe to every Rat, so that when Anspach blew in here this season he received a hearty welcome. His sensational runs of thirty and forty yards were the stellar features of many a game. A seventy-yard run from the kick-off for a touchdown in the Gallaudet game will long be remembered as the most remarkable'play on the Roanoke gridiron. Always a terror to the opposition, and holds the distinction of being the best offensive player on the team. A wily general and wonderful dodger and open-field runner. Second year on Varsity. Next year's prospect. D. HUl,L-Centex'-When the call went out for more candidates, Hull was one of the first to respond. Although a trifle light in build, is brimful of tight and grit. and is a match for most of 'em. Puts evc-ry inch of himself into the game and has given much heavier men considerable trouble. Considering his comparative in- experience, Deck played remarkably well whenever called upon. Inclined to have some fun, and is quite a lady's man. First year on Varsity and next year's pi ospcct. W. C. M. HUDDLE-Left End-Huddle is the only man we ever heard of who made a football team in a day. Never was spectacular, but one of the most consistent and dependable men on the line. Especially fast and a sure tackler. Quite often featured in breaking through the interference and getting the man with the ball. Put every bit of his 140 pounds in a tackle. Not only a letter man in football, but also a brilliant outer guardian in baseball. We regret that Max graduates this year. First year on Varsity. 41623 1 ' ' 1 v 4 D. P. .. .ag ..---Z..-,?.- -. -.- G. CHAPMAN-Right End- Dug's football training at Massanutten Acad- emy has stood him in good stead. Is a hard tackler, good in smashing interfer- ence, and a most consistent player. Also dabbles in basketball and baseball, and gives promise of being one of the best athletes in his class. Modest and good- natured. President ol' the Freshman Class and held in high esteem. First year on Varsity. NVill be back. B. SMITH-Right End and Guard-As a defensive end Smith is one of the best. He is also an adopt at receiving forward passes and breaking up interference. Has speed in ample abundance, and with 152 pounds of supple, well-developed muscle makes a formidable player. A rather ver- satile man, and has demonstrated his ability to play guard as well as end. Al- ways enjoys a joke and is a remarkable linguist, but shows a decided preference for the coach's language. A thoroughly gentlemanly student. First year on Var- sity. Will be back. FRED EASTER-Left Tackle-One of the S. J. most brilliant and heady fellows on the squad. There is no surer, gamer and deadlier tackle at 154 pounds in the coun- try. Nuts gets into every play, and gets there first. A wonderful tackler: can certainly grab forward pases and block-kicks to. perfection. Shifted to end at times and shone like the brightest star in the firmament. Played a remarkable game against Davidson and never lost any part of his reputation. A genial and well-liked fellow who always played fair and hard. Fred and Cookie became such chums one couldn't tell them apart. First year on Varsity and next year's prospect. YV. RI-IYNE-Halfback-Aceording to a football critic, the fall of 1916 was a sea- son for midgets. In spite of his diminu- tive stature and 125 pounds. Rhyne showed up in fine style. Headwork. fight, grit and speed are a few of the qualities that have earned him a well-merited po- sition on the Varsity. Featured in the YV. K-L. and V. P. I. games. Filled an important gap this year, and, with the experience gained, should be a valuable man for next year. A quiet and kindly chap. First year on Varsity. XVill be back. HOLLINGSVVORTH-Halfback- Holly, by reason of his speed and clusiveness. has been a consistent ground gainer for Roanoke. Has the stuff in him, and if he continues as he has begun there is no reason why Joe should not make an ex- cellent man for the Varsity next year. Indeed, he bids Fair to be a mainstay in the future. YVeighs 150 and makes up by his marvelous speed what he lacks in weight. Never loses his temperg is a quiet and universally liked student. First year on Varsity. XVill be back. X 1.x . C163 1- 1 gl .

A more efficient leader we have yet to find. H. DUNCAN-Guard- Ole VVady is the old reliable veteran of the team. Suffered a severe injury in football and was barred from most of basketball practice, but was always able to come through with Flying colors when a game was played. Al- though a guard, he generally gets more goals than his opposing forward, as' the scorebooks will show. For four years has held his job well, and We hate to see him graduate. A football, baseball and track star, and will be sorely missed. Fourth year on Varsity. Graduates. ll. BROWN-Forward-''Cy left us' for a year, but was persuaded to return. The lightest man of the regulars, but a tower of strength. Does a fellow good to hear Cy's cheery voice calling out to 'his teammates during the progress of a game. Small in stature, but perhaps the headiest man on the team. A systematic, swift and sure player. and excellent in team- work. Junior. Third year on team, and good material for next year. L. BONI-IAM-Center- Sam'' is the pivot on which the whole team works. Passes, shoots, guards and works the rloor with every ounce of his 190 pounds. A big and able man, fast and accurate. His shoot- ing has been one of the main factors in Old Roanoke's victories this year. Played guard last year, but this year shifted to center to fill Ced Painter's shoes, and has done it remarkably well. A kindly, goodly fellow, with a heart as big as a barrel. Junior. Second year on Varsity and next year's center. . - ' Q ' x C1691 , . I ' l T l Q.. ' Q, . Q , ..Qs.I. QM. fm- Qu I I I I ,I I , I B. D.

Is going to keep up the rep of the Painter family which was established by his brother Cecil, One of the strongest scorers of the year, and has starred the I season through. Ben is a worker, an accurate shot and a great floor man. Improves in his work more than any man we've seen.

They are handed down from year to year with a sacreclness and solemnity unsurpassed. Each class vies with the other to maintain the high and noble standards of their Alma Mater. Good or A bad standards they may be-nevertheless, standards they are, and as such they are injected into the student life regardless of race, color or previous condition of servitude. Some are of the noblest type imaginable, but from here, we regret to say, they dwindle down through the good to the question- able. To this latter class belongs the incident which we now sadly relate. It was a bit- ter cold morning in December. The sun was peeping out, and signs of activity were manifested here and there by the appearance of a student anxious to get to the library or some other part of the campus. Among the unfortunates who were required to move about was our illustrious and dignified friend, Senior Gardner, he with the cane, the immortal derby and the graceful air. Senior', Gardner was enjoying the day. He wasn't like the rest of us, cuddling in our rooms and shivering at the very fear of going out. Proudly he disported himself before the dormitory, anxious that his bravery in facing the cold be a matter of public interest. Why don,t some of you fellows comel, Splowffll Poor Gardner. Oh, gentle reader, words fail us! That we could adequately portray this picture of injured pride! The Hpoken was so well aimed-and the water was so cold! It was such a big poke, too, and it struck him so squarely amidships! You-H blurted Gardner-but we won't print what else he said. First of all, the Words were naughty, and, last of all, they weren't spoken in the calmest and most dispas- sionate mood possible. Wherever the words were aimed, and they poured' forth in a steady stream for several minutes, we cannot tell. Probably he meant them for a certain individual, but we couldn't see anyone on the scene. And we haven't found out yet who wet 'Senior' Gardner? C1861 The Seven Wonders of Roanoke College I. Utt playing fullback. 2. Barger making a first distinction. 3. Kronk keeping quiet. 4.
