Whose efforts. Unheralded by popular acclaim, Have so successfully launched this institution On broader seas of service, Making it a State Teachers College— To these men We, the Class of Nineteen Hundred Twenty-eight, Gratefully dedicate this SAXIGENA. JPnreuturh In preparing this volume we have endeavored, with the highest of aims and ideals, to include those things which will recall the cherished memories of student days. Yet the result of our striving is, after all, only another Saxigena. We hope that it will please you. (Oriter of Contents ADMINISTRATION CLASSES ATHLETICS ORGANIZATIONS FEATURES IHltat Iiall 1ft When June slips in with each oncoming year And greets us with the book so long desired. The Saxigena, magic name! “What means this name?” we ask: “What does it mean, the name which for the years Has designated this, the seniors’ book?’’ ’Twas years ago that first a name was sought. The seniors asked, “What shall we call our book?” No name could they agree upon; And so to the wise Doctor Hamm they made appeal, The wise one who then taught the Latin tongue. “Saxi, from the Latin saxum, rock,” he mused: “Genia. from the verb gigno, to spring.” Then. “Call it Saxigena!” straight he cried. “’Tis strong and able, springing from the rock.” And Saxigena then it was. Today it is. That name we love. Is there a better one? Alma mater Where the Slipp'ry Rock Creek wanders, With her sparkling falls. There in stately grace and beauty, Stand old S. R. halls. All thy halls the day in dying Crowns with golden light, And the morn with waking splendor Greets thee in thy might. Long may you, our Alma Mater, Shed your light abroad. 4s your many sons and daughters Live for you and God. Chorus: Sing her praises loud resounding. Speed them on their way: We'll be true to thee. O S. R., True for aye and aye. � V A Towers and Battlements “The Children’s Hour No Sky Above No Earth Below A Universe of Sky and Snow and Health “South” Time Cannot Dim Nor Age Destroy J.

In sheets of paper pass the night, And issue pmk slips with delight. Here’s to our faculty, the best in the state. They get up early, and sit up late. They propound deep questions, possess great knowledge. To make us study while ice’re here in college. They work very hard, but receive small thanks. Oft labor with pupils whose minds are as blanks. So here’s to our faculty long may they live! Yea, even as long as the lessons they give.

Although hardly a custom, yet it has become customary lor Coach Thompson to turn out a successful football team. Ilis teams, in the past, have won a large percentage of their games and. at the same time, have built up a reputation for fairness and clean playing that cannot help but be a tribute to their coach. The team this year was no exception to the rule. The boys won eight out of nine starts: decisively defeating all of the Teachers Colleges in this section. To top this performance they were conceded the state championship by eastern schools. They carried the Green and White into Ohio, defeating Kent and Mount I nion. The game with Mount I nion proved, beyond all doubt that Slippery Rock s days as a prep” school are over and that it must now be classed with the colleges. They invaded West Virginia and showed their lighting spirit by beating a team that was bound to win. Their only defeat was at the hands of Carnegie Treshmen, a team that defeated the Carnegie varsity in many practice games. With such men as Captain Duff. Sager. Tee. Pearson. Pulling. Mitchell. Hartman, and White from last year’s squad, reinforced by A. Graham. Seigler. Wilson, and Ott. Coach developed a hard charging line that was neither out-played nor out-fought. Kruger. I mm. Mehringer, Storer and Gumbert from the '27 team, and Lutz and I . Graham composed a backfield possessing both speed and the necessary punch. The biggest factor in the success of the team was the attitude of the men towards their work. Every man. new m kri-kt k11 i■ i k or ° � ,rom ! lc beginning of the season, refused to yield a Man o place to any other without first giving the best in him. KI RR THOMPSON Coach Ninety-five SLIPPERY ROCK 13 MOUNT UNION 7 Mount Union started out beautifully. Dunn kicked oil for the Purple, and alter an exchange of punts, with the ball in Slippery Rock's possession, a terrific drive was started which ended in the first touchdown of the game, Kruger scoring. Lutz failed to kick the goal. In the last quarter Mount Union, after a break, scored a touchdown and the point after the touchdown, making the score 7-6 in favor of Mount I nion, but Slippery Rock with more determination than ever came right back, and within two minutes scored seven more points which brought the downfall of our opponents.

Drumm I The Reserves Heretofore, the scrubs have been a neglected bunch at Slippers Rock. Coach” was forced to spend his entire time with the first team, and the scrubs went their weary way receiving the bumps but not the credit. If one of their number worked his way up, it was through his individual brilliancy, or else through an injury to a regular. But this year it was different. I'rom the- first day of practice they were efficiently and capably coached by “Ted Marnen. a former varsity player. Great credit must be given to him for his work in developing the reserves into a well coached team. Coach” called upon several of them at different times and they were not found wanting. Not only were they able to give the varsity stiff competition in scrimmage, but they also defeated the Grove City College reserves 7-0 in a well played game on the former's field. - Unc humltril four 1 Its . Starling off with only the loss of Meg-lathery Irom the l‘ 27 championship team ol the western Pennsylvania Teachers Colleges prospects were bright for the 1028 season. But the ' received a severe jolt when Barnett Captain-elect. was declared ineligible through the new athletic code. Kruger. 1927 Captain, was re-elected to lead the team again. Practice was called immediately after Thanksgiving, and about forty candidates appeared. After two weeks of practice, the squad was cut to eighteen men. all of whom showed marked ability. The first game was at New Wilmington with Westminster College. Westminster, with a veteran team of six-footers, easily defeated the Green and White 52-30; but it must be remembered that this same team won the 'Tri-State Conference title, defeating all the leading teams of this section. But the boys soon got this defeat out of their system by administering a 32-19 defeat to our rivals. California, on our lloor. Their passing was erratic, but they gave promise of developing into a wonderful team. Kruger was back in his old form, registering seven field goals. Then the squad journeyed to Clarion, w here the second team, playing the greater part of the game, won 39-27. The second home game was with our Ohio rivals. Kent. They displayed a fast back court passing attack; but they seemed unable to work the ball under the bucket. Coupled with quick cutting and accurate shooting our boys kept far enough in the lead to remove all cause of worry. The next Saturday West I ibertv brought an undefeated team to our floor. This game proved to be the best game of the year. In fact it was so hot that the Gym almost burned down later in the evening. Campbell played best for Slippery Rock, scoring 16 points. It was his foul in the last few seconds of the game that brought home the bacon 30-29. WILLIAM OVLRAND I B. COTTRELL Coaeh One hundred five Next came our bitter rivals; Indiana.

But what about the large group of the boys whose love of the game was perhaps as strong as the few on the varsity? In order that these boys may play, it has been the custom to have an inter-class tournament in which each class enters as many teams as they can form. This tournament is held at the close of the regular varsity season, and the varsity players act as referees, not being allowed to play as they have been participating in basketball. The main purpose of the tournament is and has been to give every boy who desires to play a chance regardless of the outcome. Much interest was aroused as the various classes fought for supremacy. At the opening there were fourteen teams representing the four classes. Irom the start the contests were hard fought, each team cheered on by its loyal classmates. Team A of the Sophomore I lealth Education drew a bye in lir t bracket and easily won their following games to become the new inter-class champions. But the “surprise team of the tournament was the Sophomore Junior I ligh team A. Not recognized as a particularly strong team they fought their way through a difficult schedule to the finals where they fell by a large score to the merciless attack of their I lealth Education classmates. They put up a game light, never quitting till the final whistle and proving their worth to the high standing they had achieved. Games this year were well attended, and if conditions this year arc any indication of the feelings of the student body it will be only a few years before inter-class basketball will be a regular part of the winter program of our school. One humlred Jen Il 2( 27 brought lour athletic teams of championship calibre to Slippery Rock during the spring and summer, and baseball headed the list. King Winter had not yet departed when the boys stepped down into West Libert) Normal s haunts and dropped the season's opener in a snow storm 7-4. The following week brought a trip east and games were played with Bellefonte Academ) and Indiana State Teachers College on successive days. The result, after traveling close to five hundred miles, was an even break. The Bellefonte game was closely fought and were it not for “Lefty” Williams' spectacular catch of Roth’s liner into deep right center field in the last inning, with the bases loaded Slippery Rock would have been returned victors. Williams was a former Slippery Rock student. Ripper pitched a good steady game, having eight strike outs to his credit. After losing 4-2 the boys became feverish for revenge and scalped Indiana State Teachers College by the overwhelming score of 27-1 in seven innings. Lutz led the field with two homers and a double and Palmer connected for five singles. An interesting feature of the game was that Dull was hit by a pitched ball four imes in his six trips to the plate. Slippery Rock gathered nineteen hits while Rankin held Indiana to six with his portsidc slants. Kiski prep took Slippery Rock over the following Tuesday 7-0. in a rain-storm.

West Liberty, touted to have a fast club and owning a victory over the college lads on the former's field, were no match for the prospective teachers who hit almost at will and ran the bases with utter abandon. Kipper hurled a steady game allowing only five hits, and sending seven men to the bench bv the strike out route. Lasley turned in the best catch of the game when he grabbed Style’s bid for a homer near the foul line. The left fielder was going at top speed as he pulled the ball into his glove. West I iberty contributed six errors anil Slipper) Rock two during the game. Lutz led the sluggers with three hits. Slipper) Rock lost a tough one to St. Vincent College by a 3-2 decision in the best game of the season. The game was played at Beatty. Pa., before a large crowd.

Bellefonte was the next victim at Slippery Rock by a 0-5, score. Rankin struck out seven men and was touched for six hits. Monaca fielded well while Hasley led the hitters.

Ripper pitched a steady game allowing nine hits. The following week Slippery Rock repeated its victory over Kent State Teachers College by a score of 5-3 in a well played game. Ripper pitched good ball, with fine support behind him. I le allowed eight scattered hits. Sermin. playing short for Abrahams, contributed two timely hits. On Saturday. May 28. Slippery Rock ended a very successful season by defeating their traditional rivals. California State Teachers College. 18-3. California was unable to score until the scrubs entered the fray late in the game. Tight misplays were charged to California while Slipper} Rock had none.

Rankin and Stoops pitched well allowing but four hits. The Saxigena this year has launched upon a new policy. W e believe that here-to-fore baseball has not been given the prominence and credit which it so richly deserves. So since it is an impossibility to picture and write for the P 2S squad, we have gone back and pictured and wrote of the ll 27 squad. Since all of those are not now in school, we have the pictures of only eight letter men. Palmer, a catcher, and Abraham, the captain and short-stop, are missing. It is our sincere wish that those who may compose the 1( 2( Saxigena will give recognition to those who bring glory upon our school this spring. Once more in Slippery Rock Slate Teachers College, basketball ruled among the sports for the girls. With practically the same lineup that won fame last year, the success and popularity of the team was never questioned. The day Coach Compton called the first practice, a large and eager group of girls was found ready and willing to do their bit for old Slippery Rock. Due to the large number it was necessary to start eliminating at once and by Christmas vacation the squad consisted of twenty-four members. As the first game with California on January 20 approached, the choice for the Green and White varsity fell almost automatically upon the six letter girls of last year. However, the members of the second, third, and fourth teams must not be forgotten. There could have been no successful varsity without these reserves, and the games won were no more outstanding than the splendid sportsmanship and co-operation manifest among the girls of the squad. The season opened with the game at California. January 20. which our girls won. being on the long end of a 22-12 score after a rather strenuous game. Then the girls from I'rostburg. Maryland arrived with an impressive record, but they looked no different from others to our girls. After four periods of being out-jumped. out-passed and out-shot they left the floor on the wrong end of a 38-13 score. Then California came to Slippery Rock for a return game but found themselves unable to break through the defense of the Green and White to secure a single field goal and had to be content with four foul goals while our lassies were gathering thirty-seven points, the final score being 37-4. The season ended with a trip to Maryland, and again the score board showed a balance on the Green and White side, the score being 23-10. Although Coach Compton was unable to guide the team throughout the year, her line coaching was evident to the end. In her absence Miss Bruckheimer had charge of the squad and was an able and well liked substitute.

Such one-sidedness may have had its effect upon hockey as a whole in this part of the country, and it may not. but when Slippery Rock sought opponents this year none were to be found without going a great distance. That the girls might have opportunity to play the game even though no outside rivals were to be found a round robin tournament of class teams was arranged. The spirit for hockey was keen from the beginning, and no words can describe the fun and enjoyment that was prevalent each day on the field. As the elimination began more spirit was manifested until each game began to end not onl with small scores but sometimes end in a tie. As the season advanced toward Thanksgiving the two teams which had been undefeated were the Sophomores and “The Worlds . Rain stayed off this final game but each team knew who the winner would be? The hours of practice and coaching under the able direction of Miss Bruckheimer were well worth w hile and truly appreciated by each player. After such a successful season it befell Miss Bruckheimer’s lot to choose an Honorary Varsity from all the teams. After much work of watching and balancing, the varsity was chosen, letters were awarded, and the girls were accepted into the Varsity Club.

I‘he social and athletic events, the droll happenings in the classroom, the club activities, items of personal interest and Sparks made up the material found in its pages, but these reports were all executed on the gallows of poverty.

During the past year the Slippery Rock't M. C.

Main expressed appreciation of its efforts. Membership is limited and is obtained through the ability of application in the line of vocal music. Miss Gerbrich was successful in finding girls who were capable and willing to make the club this year a success. The ready and willing response of the members, and the constant effort of the director has made the club what it is. The statement made last year by one of the state officers that. “ I hey are hard to beat. still can be held as a true statement this year. Members of the club, who are graduating certainly do extend a hearty wish for the good work and success to continue throughout the coming year. l I ICI KS ’resident 1 ice-President Secretary-Treasurer Business Manager I it v Preege M RTIIA VADDINGTON Zoh Barsmart Ruth Mii.i.ek i me hnn.ln-.l lInin Men’s Glee Club The Men's Glee Club, though a comparatively young organization, has done considerable work in building up a better spirit for chorus singing in Slippery Rock. This group of two dozen voices under the leadership of Mr. Seiler worked hard to carry out the excellent work of previous years. Their success can best be measured by the line programs which they rendered in the college chapel. Their concerts were enjoyed here at Slipperx Rock, as well as at several high schools in the western part of the state. These trips serve as incentives to the club and are always looked forward to. There was no strong quartette worked up this sear, as there was last, but not because there wasn't the talent. It was decided that this would be neglected and the entire group featured. However, they did have several dialogues which brought laughed unto tears.

This never-tiring organization probably represents the best musical talent in the school. I his talent, molded by Miss Gerberich's professional hands, every Sunda evening culminates in beautiful music presented b the choir which is a great attraction on the Vesper program. The choir furnished an appropriate selection for the Chapel program held on Armistice Day. Next followed its all-musical program of the Armistice-Thanksgiving season. Just before the holidays, a beautiful Christmas program won the hearts of a large audience. In view of the fine work the Choir had been doing, its members were given the privilege of journeying to the New Castle Cathedral where they heard a cast from the Metropolitan )pera in I he King's I lenchman. I he choir greatly appreciated this musical opportunit.s and pleasure. To Miss Gerberich and the members of her Vesper Choir goes much credit and praise for much of the harmony found in Slippery Rock. � nc hunJrot thirty-two The Baton Club One of the most interesting, as well as instructive extra-curricular activities on the campus, is the Baton Club. The aim of the club is to study the directing of ensemble singing and playing. Mrs. Arnold, the s|x nsor of the club, has made the work interesting and instructive to all the members by making it practical. Although the club is not very old it has made great progress. It furnishes directors for the student chapel, for the junior and senior high school chapels, and for Parent-Teacher Association meetings.

W hen the members returned this year, it seemed that all had come back with a new enthusiasm. All were eager to give all the help they could to make the club a success. After the new members had been initiated, a special meeting was held. I:ach new member had to perform some act. When even thing was settled, all felt they could get down to work. The Art Club feels that they have accomplished quite a bit this year. During the course of the semester, art was discussed in a broad sense. Pictures, architecture, flower arrangement, and dress were some of the topics up for discussion. They also took many hikes for the purpose of studying landscapes. 01 1 ICIKS President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer - I IKS I SHMHS'I l l Ai.ich Cm aims’ I.toil I I C AI I K Anne Schneidek IJaRBAKA VHOMANS SI •COM) SI MI:S I I K Anne S hnf.ider M: dki.ini- Smhi.tzik .Mrs. Haines Mrs. Haines - I nr limiilic.l lhirt -four Lidra Club The Lidra Club is organized to provide an extra-curricular activity for students especially interested in literature and dramatics. Because of the limited time and staging facilities, the club's activities are directed largely toward general criticism and investigation of modern literature. Recent books, new plays, prominent poetry, and present-day trends in literature furnish ample topic for review and discussion. The bi-monthly programs are occasionally varied by the presentation of a brief play or a group of readings. The club is included in the regular schedule of extra-curricular activities and meets on every other Thursday afternoon. Membership in the Lidra Club i determined on the basis of scholarship anil literary interests. Students w ho maintain an average grade in all their studies and do better than average work in English are invited and urged to join in this worth-while activity.

One must have not only athletic ability, but good scholastic standing as well in order to participate in any of the sports. At the end of the season, the coach recommends that those who have done the. best work be given the school letter. This automatically gives to the possessor of the “S” membership in the V arsity (dub. I here are a number of sports in which the coveted letter may be earned. I'hesc are hockey, basketball, and tennis. This has been the second year of the club's existence. Several new members were added, but the higher quality and greater number of competitors has made the club harder to enter. This club aims to bring about a better spirit for clean sportsmanship in competition. better scholarship among the athletic teams, and added health for everyone. OFFICERS Sara Dardis Ruth Miller Elva Mc.Casi.and Oik hundred ihinv-m I resident Secretary Treasurer The Boy’s Varsity Club It is necessary to have athletics in our school. Sports create the spirit of manhood. of fair play anti loyalty, and of strength and determination. I o promote this, the Varsity Club was organized. To obtain membership in this club, one must have been awarded a letter in one of the following major sports: football, basketball, baseball, or tennis, or any other sport which is recommended by the Athletic Council. Subject to the approval of the members of the club. Some of the functions of the club are the printing of schedules of the various sports and giving financial aid to worthy and needy athletes who must have the recommendation of the head coach and three members of the club. Nicy must have good scholarship, athletic ability, ami character. The personnel of the Varsity Club includes some thirty members who have succeeded in winning their letter in a major sport recognized by the thletic Committee.

A large, eager group awaited the organization of such a club, and the real co-peration of the members, their willingness to work, along with the true leadership ol Miss Strunk, the faculty adviser, the club was brought to the close of a very successful season; successful not only within itself, but in the eyes of the school, the laculty. and students alike. Guided by a strong constitution, which demanded the payment ot a small amount of dues, and above all the regular attendance of all members, which law it broken to the extent of three absenses brought suspension from the club, the Dramatic Club met its problems bravely. The club met regularly on Thursday afternoons at -CD and the programs produced included, besides the large variety of plays such as I wo Crooks and a Lady.’ Fame and the Poet. and Nevertheless. mam interesting discussions of famous modern dramatists and their plays, which chiefly contained the setting, characters, and background.

In accordance with this aim. its programs have been planned to be instructive interesting, and entertaining. In these have been included studies of birds, animals trees, and fall flowers. Many of its programs have been held out of doors, thus combining pleasurable and educational activities.

Familiar Campus Scenes One lunulti'J loriy-six I HISTORY Slippery Rock Normal (sub) the hind-runner of the State Teachers Coll itch, was discovered at Slippery Rock the year before the flood. Such courses were offered as would enable the prodigys who attended to hold on by their tails and to earn a living without working. The campus, although said to lx- donated, was stolen from the Indians with the aid of a little soda water. LOCATION Slippery Rock is located mid way between the Ohio River and Lake Erie, and is practically cut off from any contact with civilization such as theaters and breweries. It is sixty miles north of Pittsburgh, but try and get to Pittsburgh It isn't far from Butler or Nov. Castle, but the bumming is terrible. The nearest train is at the Deserted illage, but no trains slop there. o try and get awa from here once you are here.

One hundred (ortv-eiichl ais Courses of Instruction Offered Since Slippery Rock has become so popular and there is a greater demand for subjects and so. being handicapped with inefficient teachers, we have decided to let you take care of yourself and choose your own course. You are young only once in your life and you live only once. Why spoil it with work? What did you come to college for? To work? No. I should say not. l-'veryone’s ambition when they come here is to have a good time and to see how much they can get away with. All we ask is that you are not too open with it. You see the idea of “education is far different than it formerly was. Lducation is derived from the Latin word “educo which means to “lead out. so why not lead out to dances, parties, etc. This is your chance, so why not take it. Opportunity knocks but once. Listen! You know education is not gotten by work but by experience. Get out and get some experience. You see our courses are not meant for work but merely as a blind to the public so that they won't feel so badly about our getting away without working. If you don’t believe us. ask the seniors or those v ho have already left this place. Come up and find out for yourself, but don’t work, or something awful is liable to happen. One student worked more than enough to just get by. and died from over strain. Beware! ! ! ! Linn ie I seen berg Nemo Tomsing Requirements for Graduation Degrees of B.

They have sung everything but the blues and they sing that in their rooms. There are about sixty-six in the club, being evenly divided among the different parts, some sing terrible, some awful, and the best sing like-—. They made their first appearance on April L and we heard that they made their next appearance at New York. (They never stopped running.) Among the contributions they received were, cabbages, lettuce, eggs. etc. The benefits of the concert were for the benefit of the poor artless girls who were unable to date and pursue the art of gold digging. BYES The Byes Glee Club were a marvelous success, making long trips to sing at well known places such as Aunt Kates. Jim’s Place, and many other popular night clubs. They were a howling success.

SCIENCE CLUB A scholastic society and consists of those who are well known to the teachers and who are known to have a heavy correspondence with several said teachers.

Paul Bark, and several others. VARSITY CLl’BS There are both boys and girls clubs. These clubs are for the purpose of helping the worn out. burnt up and stale athletes which the high schools within our radius are sending us. You see. being tired having them hang around, they are only too glad to get them off their hands by sending them to our collitch. OPEN ROAD Cl I B The name suggests its activities and purposes. It is for the sole purpose of opening up new roads, that the couples might have somewhere else to walk than down the Keister rode or out the Wolf Creed road. As yet the club has not been very successful for it seems no matter where the new roads are discovered, some couple has been there first. It seems the more secluded and hidden the road, the greater the number ol discoverers. I wonder why.

Wl IAT-TO-DO CLl B This What-To-l)o Club is ail the bunk because they never do what you want them to do anyhow. Much good advice is offered to those who want to take it. but how main do? I lowever. we have found from experience that the following are the accepted rules at Slippery Rock. 1. Drink liquids from jour saucer such as juice from peaches, coffee, tea and cocoa. I f latter is hot fan it with your hat. 2. Begin to eat as soon as you receive your plate for there might not be enough seconds” for all. }. l eave the table immediately after you are through, no use wasting time. •1 If the waiter has omitted tooth pick, don't he so impolite to mention it. I se your fork or your finger. 5. Always tuck your napkin in your collar, it saves laundry. ( . If there is something you like, and you can't eat it all. don’t he so rude as to leave it, take it to your room. 7. If you have trouble in disposing of your feet, wrap them around the chair legs. 8 Never eat pie with a fork. It is very impolite, the accepted style is to use both hands to convey it to your mouth and to see how few bites it takes to eat it. ). W hen at the teachers table, express yourself freely on the happenings of dorms. I'he teachers like to hear of our innocent pastimes anil derive much pleasure from the recital of the students merry pranks. 10. If you want something on the other side of the table get up and reach across and get it. no one will object. 11. If the lettuce on your salad is unmanagahie. pick it up with your lingers, it saves time. 12. If a piece of meat should escape from your plate capture it as quickly as possible to avoid confusion. From the efforts of this club the following satistics have been gathered win students attend Slippery Rock. . . . 1. To make a hit. 2. I d go skipping especially on Sunday. 3. To hear “Doc” rave. 4. To show how little they know. 3. Because the boy friend goes there. 6. To take Fresh Air. Campustry. l ectures. I ovology. 7. To make a hit. 5. To get a swell head. 0.

BETTER MAI VESSQl I LCII Al l STARS IN BENEFIT GAME Proceeds given to starving rats and roaches of North I lall. Little mercy was shown by either side in the benefit game between the Better I lakes and the All Stars at the stadium on the hill last fall. Excellent playing at every stage of the game gave the spectators the greatest thrill which they witnessed at any time in the last five seasons. During the entire game there was little advantage shown by either side, anil only when the final whistle blew was it sure who the winners were. The game by spasms and convulsions is as follows: First Spasm Brown kicked off for the better halves to Porter who received but stopped to raise a question and was downed where he stopped by the battling Captain McKay. On the next play Doc carried the oval but was stopp'd before he gained the full measure of his manhood. Cider next worked his way around left end for a first down. This spasm ended as Ruff called for water. Score 0-0. Second Spasm The second spasm started with Cottrell kicking. Arnold, gauged the distance accuratedly. and made a beautiful catch. She advanced the ball thirty yards, but Gallager, deciding that she was too impertinent, downed her for a loss on the next play. Time out was called to regain some lost wind for the Better Halves. When the game was renewed. Rice, the quarterback, threw a long pass to Mary who passed up all of her interference to score a touch down for the Better I lalves. In the try for point. Gallager presumed to block the kick, but his efforts were of no avail. The All Stars being accustomed to the Better Halves running things, took Doc” Hamm's advice and quit, since there was no use fighting over a football when one could be bought in any local 5 10. l inker tried i remonstrate with the All Stars and tried to show that they couldn’t quit, but his book of “Guidance in boot ball Rules was of an 1898 edition, and so did not carry weight.

BB HE real mission of the Class Book is to provide for each graduate a permanent record of all that was good in the “happiest days of life - It is a completed album of those friends of memory who will never, never grow old—and therefore the pathway back to youth. Custom has now firmly established the publication, yearly, of a Class Book in nearly every school and cob lege in the land. As the worth of the earlier Class Books becomes more and more evident to their owners, the urge to make bigger, finer and more complete books becomes stronger in the younger college folk. Thus, today, we find among the biggest and best executed examples of the Designers’, Engravers’ and Printers’ arts, the Class Books of America's great educational institutions. The Colleguite Section of our organization has helped to build some of the very finest of these booths Complete sympathy with the real purposes of the Class Hool( and genuine appreciation of college sentiments and traditions form the groundwork upon which we have built this section of our business.
