He received his early education in the Public Schools of North Platte, and at the St. .Iohn's Preparatory School of Annapolis, Maryland, entering St. john's College on the completion of his work in the .Preparatory School. While he was a student at St. john's, Mr. Neville took an active part in all College departments. He was half-back on the football team, and held high positions on both the Rat-Tat and the Collegian Boards. During his Senior year he was Captain of Company A Q He, with other members of the Adel- phian Club, a local fraternity, applied for admission to the Phi Sigma Kappa Fraternity, and became one of the Charter Members of the Phi Sigma Kappa Fraternity in 1903, when the local chapter was installed. In June 1905, he was graduated, receiving a Bachelor of Arts degree. Since leaving St. -Iohn's, Mr. Neville has been actively engaged in many different branches of business in and around North Platte, but has specialized in Ranching, Real Estate and Banking. At present, he is Vice-President and a Director of the First National Bank of North Platte. On October 21, 1908, Mr. Neville married Miss Mary Virginia Neill of Charlestown, West Virginia. , Mr. Neville has always been interested in outdoor life, and is exceedingly fond of hunting and sports. In addition to his membership in the Phi Sigma Kappa Fraternity, he holds memberships in many clubs and societies, among them The Florida Yacht Club of St. Petersburg, The St. Petersburg Tarpar Club, The Nebraska Commercial Club of Lincoln, The Lincoln Country Club, The Carter Lake Club of Omaha, The University Club of Omaha, and The North Platte Country Club. Mr. Neville has been as successful in politics as he has been in business. Endowed with a wonderful personality and a great love for reform, his energetic methods brought him into prominence in the political world at an early age. Starting with minor civic positions on the Board of liducation and the City Council of North Platte, he quickly ascended to his present pinnacle of success, the Governorship. He was nominated for Governor on the Democratic ticket in a state-wide primary, defeating the I-lon. Charles VV. Bryan by a large majority. The climax of Mr. Neville's career came on November 7, IQIO, when he was elected Governor of Nebraska, defeating judge A. L. Sutton of Omaha. Twelve years have passed since Mr. Neville was graduated from St. John's. Although he has rapidly climbed the ladder of success, he has never lost any of his love for his Alma Mater. Each year finds him more and more interested in the work that she carries on, and finds him ever ready to extol the benefits of St. John's. 6 W 1' I. .... ..,,, ..., .... .. ..,ff.Z.,, ..... .... ..... 7 ' QS Alma illllatvr 9. 11. 01.

THOMAS l lCl.l., the twelfth president of St. john's College, was born in Liverpool, lingland, on july 15th, 1851. V, XVhen he was six years old he was enrolled in the Royal 9 lnstitution School at Liverpool, and here studied for nine years--1857-1866. ln the latter part of 1866 he went to London, and was matriculated at Kings College. Four years later he entered the University of London, and remained there three years. He was also a student at the University of Munich for one year. Dr. Fell began his active work in life in tiduciary capacity in lingland, serving under the Bishop of London as lay reader from 1876 to ISSO. For two years thereafter he traveled through India, China, Formosa and Ceylon. In 1882 he came to America, and two years later he was elected Professor of Ancient Languages at New W'indsor College, New Windsor, Md. Dr. Fell in 1886 became president of St. john's College, and has held that position since. This yea1', 1886, marks the beginning of a new era for our institution. Dr. Fell's untiring energies soon asserted themselves, and the mortgage of 830,000.00 was paid off. He also succeeded in raising money to build three of the tinest' buildings on the campus, namely, XfVoodward Hall, Randall Hall and the new gynmasium. The number of students has been increased, and as a whole the College has been strengthened both in discipline and in the character of the work done. Dr. Fell is an active member of the following organizations: The American Philological Association, The American Academy of l olitical Sciences, The National liducational Association, the l'hi Sigma Kappa lfraternity, The Uni- versity lilect of Baltimore and The Cliosphic Society of Princeton University. The following honorary degrees have been conferred upon him: Doctor of Laws, by Hampden-Sidney College of Virginia, in 1889g Doctor of Philosophy, by St. .lohn's College, Annapolis, Md., in 19o7g Doctor of Civil Laws, by the University of the South, Suwanee, Tenn., in 1907, and Doctor of Laws, by the University of Pittsburgh, in 1912. The affiliation of St. John's with the University of Maryland, Baltimore, is one of Dr. Fell's accomplishments. Since this he has been prominently connected in the University, and in january, 1913, he was chosen provost by the Board of Regents to hll the place left vacant by the death of Bernard Carter. This position gave Dr. Fell a wider Field to display his talents, and already a project is on foot for a State University. If it is accomplished, it will be mainly through Dr. Fell's ability as an organizer. ' 17 W bk ,,,, ,,,, ! ,,,Zm,,Q,,,j l'1'ofr'ssor of Biology and Geology. .Sit't'I'CltlI'j' of lllc l:t1t'lIUj'.

At an early age he came to Annapolis and entered St. CM, johns Preparatory School in the spring of 1898. In 1900 he left Annapolis to attend school at the 'Rockville Academy. In the fall of 1902 .. he matriculated at St. .Iohn's, and was graduated in 1906 with the degree of Bachelor of Arts. Since his graduation Mr. Sturdy has been engaged in educational work, and has shown much ability as a teacher. 1-Ie taught at Wiln1er's and Chew's Preparatory Schools of Annapolis from 1906 to 1911. In 1911 he answered the call of his Alma Mater and became Assistant Professor of Mathematics. The next two years were spent at johns I-loplcins University, from which he received the degree of Master of Arts in 1912. Professor Sturdy returned to St. -Iohn's as Professor of History, Political Science and Political Economy, and faithfully held this chair until 1916, when he was appointed Instructor in the Department of English of the United States Naval Academy. Professor Sturdy is a recognized authority on basket-ball, and served as a Member of the Basket-ball 'Rules Committee of the National Collegiate Athletic Association in 1916, and as a Member of the Advisory Basket-ball Rules Committee of the National Collegiate Athletic Association for 1917.

Since leaving St. john's, Dr. Steele has divided his time between teaching and research work at the johns Hopkins University. 'lfhere he prepared a dissertation, in the Latin fllepartinent, in connection with the study of Ovid, This dissertation has been approved by the head of the department and is now ready for publication. Dr. Steele has taught in Cecil and Carroll Counties of Maryland, in Tennessee, Maine and in the lialtimore City College, where he holds the chair as Professor of Greek and Latin. At the close of his term of service in Tennessee he received an honorary doctorate, and in 1916 he was given the degree of Doctor of Literature by the Board of Visitors and Governors of St. .lohn's College. lCOl ii,f.. z 1 , 3 qw, -. 2. .

At hrst the school consisted of but one simple lg brick building, and its first president was the Reverend Edward E Butler, Rector of St. Anne's. Although King Williams School ,. r '5f55f'f satisfied a long-felt want, it was by far not all that the colonists desired and needed. WL? , What was needed was a college where one could obtain a higher education without crossing the Atlantic. It was proposed to found such a college as early as 1671. Although several attempts were made to push a bill through the Legislature, a charter was not granted until 1784, due to the Revolution. The college was named St. john's College, and at first, and, in fact for seventy-one years, the only building was I3laden's Folly, later called McDowell I-Iall, in honor of the first president, Dr. McDowell. The first thirteen years were prosperous ones, but in I806 the Legislature withdrew its support. From then until 1831, when Dr. Hector Humphries tool: charge, the College saw hard times. In his administration, which lasted until 1857, two new buildings-'Pinkney and Humphrey Halls--were added by his untiring efforts. In 1861, during the Civil NVar, St. John's ceased to exist. It was reopened in 1866, only to stumble along uncertainly until 1886, when Dr. Thomas Fell became president. NVe owe to him the school we have today-a school honored and respected by all. During his administration VVoodward and Randall Halls and the new gymnasium were built, and McDowell, which burned in IQOQ, was rebuilt. In her long and enviable career St. John's has turned out many alumni of whom any institution might well be proud. One of the most interesting features of the campus is the old Liberty Tree, which experts say is nearly a thousand years old. It has been reinforced with concrete, so that it stands as sturdily as ever. Tradition says that under this old tree a treaty was signed between the colonists and the Indians. The Daughters Of the American Revolution have marked it as a spot of historical interest. 31 THE CAMPUS 5,52- vie- MCDOWELL HALL PINKNEY HALL WOODWARD HALL 'F r I . 11 .K .1 h HUMPHREY HALL.

Among his victims was Pris , in whom he used to take great delight in sending down town on various errands, and the very next year Pris returned good for evil by taking him for a roommate, even until now. Junior year found Fats studying hard, and having a little fun on the side. He learned, very cleverly, the art of balancing oneself on the ledge outside the windows, and thereby making escapes from Prying Profs . He made trips to Baltimore once in a while when school started, and these week-end events still continue, and even oftener. We wonder if you know why? Note his characteristic! Fats has won, honestly, for himself a place among St. John's famous athletes, having played on the 'Varsity football and basket-ball teams for several years, being picked as all-Maryland end. He was captain of the 1916 basket-ball team, and of the IQI6 football team. In the band, Fats is the slinger of the Big Stick this year, and even Hop Plummer could well be envious of our Drum Major of 1916-1917. liars is a man of sterling character, and has a mighty cheery dis- position at all times. 'l'his, no doubt, with his many other good qualities and athletic activities, has helped to earn for him the rating of one of the most popular of St. Jol1n's men. 44 C l9l7 HARRY HUBERT BOWERS, Heine FRIZIJERICK, Mn.

Dont tell Heine kggjii that though, for there'll be war sure, for Heine says he's All-American, so we'll take him at his word. Looks are deceiving, you know. Heine and Frederick are synonomous terms. Frederick eonlcln't exist without him, Find he iouldrft exishivitlititit Fredrick, or at least that is the impression one gets after a ew worms with tiis aron einricl von Frederick. The object of this narration is an athlete of both the American and Mexican style, quite versatile, indeed. It is hard to say in which kind he excels, though we are inclined to think that his Mexican athletic skill surpasses the American methods. Nevertheless, even with all of this Heine does blow his own horn. Now, don't misunderstand me, kind reader, I mean his bari- tone. He uses this to swell the volume of his group of harmonious ihscorclers, who imagine that they are getting music out of their tin iorns. Let us now turn to 4'Heine's good qualities, and really he has many. A man with a bigger heart cannot be found at St. ,Iohn's, a than always willing to help you when in trouble tif the Dutchman likes youg but woe if he cloesn'tD, a man truly altruistic in spirit. Let us then all join and drink a toast to Heine -the future Mayor nf Frederick or Kaiser of the German Empire. 45 l9l7 JAMES HAMILTON BROWN BRASHEARS, a4Jimmyvv ANN,tt'ol.is, Mn, l.ulift-.S'cl'c1llifit'. l'l1i .Yzigtzttz lfufvfvtl Fl'tlft'l'lll.l.V.

As a student, John started off like a whirlwind, standing among the first three in his class in the Preparatory School, but this couldn't last, for in his Freshman year he learned to dance, which is fatal to so many, and it was then that he found out how attractive he really was. But John has always had a special turn for the work in some of thc departments, as German C?1, Mathematics C?1, and Military V Science C?1.

He has a good memory for the ages past. He laid the cornerstone of Pinlmey, and was a good friendof Francis Scott Key. His only regret is that he forgot the planting of the Liberty Tree. Doug Thompson and Harry An- drew say they remember distinctly that Pee-VVee and Metliuselah used to shoot marbles in front of the White House on Fifth Avenue in Eastport. Poor Pee-Wee, we are afraid that we are creating the impression of not giving the devil his due. But we can't help it, Pee-Wee likes to be kidded so much. Although he has had a little tough luck in some departments, Pee- Wee is not by any means slow of comprehension. He used to shine in history, economics and Bob White's Latin. Irle is an ardent rooter whenever a St. John's team plays, a good Philomathean, a conscientious clriller, and has that stick-to-it-ive- ness that always means final success. 56 l9l7 ROBERT H.

HILE the presidency of the G. O. H. was still in existence, there appeared upon the St John's campus a till lanky youth who soon became the worthy oblect of atten- tion to the holder of that office It was not long before this slick individual soon learned the tricks of the trade and Sam Freeny's cupboard soon became his haven ' in time of trouble. ' However, during this year Pris made quite a record for himself in scholastic work. Since then he has been on a sliding Scale with the arrow pointing downward until now he is a member of Ducky's veteran class. In his first year he had neither athletic ambition nor desire. The next year he showed he had the old St. Iohn's spirit and went out for track, and since then he has been a loyal supporter of all athletic teams. . Early in his sophomoreiyear he was the main factor in the organ- ization of the firm of Maddox, Storm and Jarman, manufacturers of DOGS and HEADACHES. From this time forth he has shown marked ability in other business endeavors, culminating his career by well esteemed service as Business Manager of The Collegian. Pris is a shining star in all social circles. The ladies are his long suit. A serious crimp was put in his hopes for a trip to Sudlcrs- ville when a two-thirty return from a pass caused John Storm and our hero one month's confinement in Annapolis. Ou the whole, however, Pris has only to continue his traits of St. John's days to insure him a happy and successful hereafter, which is the earnest wish of his class. 57 l9l7 ALFRED HOUSTON NOBLE., Ouston Ca Mnrunoa, Mn.

As luck was with him he turned out to be one of the fastest men in college. This year when the track team needed a captain and no one else would take the job Ouston was elected by a unanimous vote. His great ability was recognized by making him manager also. They thought that with such a man at the head a coach was useless, so Ouston is captain, manager, coach and everything but the track itself. ln the military department his great ability was not recognized until the latter part of last year when he was made a corporal, but this year he has become a distinguished lieutenant of ll Company. Ouston likes military so well that he enlisted in the Machine Gun Company of the First Maryland, and spent the whole summer on the Mexican border.

He has mastered this so thoroughly that he can talk almost an LESS?-23: hour on nothing. 1-lis favorite stunt is to start a bum argument with the lXlonarch of Senior Floor, and it is needless to say that Spick always comes out with flying colors. Reds came to us three years ago, and deceived all of us. At a first glimpse of him we concluded that we at last had a typical rough neck in our midst. But he electrified us the first morning by leading the singing in Chapel. He has been a Martin Luther to St. John's College, and his reforms are evident. I-le claims that Galley Wilson's improvement is due to his activities. The people of West Annapolis recognized Spick's ability, and called him as their parson. He must have succeeded very well, for now they call him Doctor. Spick was a great friend of Dr. Sehumacher's, but Adolf became envious of Spick's newly acquired title, and there has been war ever since. Dr also admires Spick's ' highly cultured voice CPD. The subject of our essay is also affected by the fair sex. He never returns until after I2 P. M.. and takes dinner out every Sunday. Don't ask him who it is-we all know. Spick has made a lasting impression on all of us. and we predict for him :i bright and happy future in his chosen work, the ministry. 61 S l9l7 H. L.

Strange to say. he was not often caught visiting, but seemed to have an instinct as to when the O. C, was going to take up an inspection. I-le always admired studies from a distance-never made any rude approach to them. Mose possesses many literary talents, having published the Colleg- ian successfully during his senior year. He thinks Variety is the spice of life, for he changed the date of its appearance many. yea. many times. I-lis ambition is to become a Judge, and every afternoon Nose can be seen wandering aimlessly to the Short Line Station, not being particular what time he gets to his lectures. His course at the Law School causes him to neglect his militfu-y duties, which results in no little embarrassment.

But, after that date, it was a ease of bottlin- mores to the right of him, Sophomores to the left of him, Sophomorcs in front ot him, Sopho- mores behind him. His every endeavor met with opposition, and he was mangled, mutilated and all but massacred. - In a few months, however, his trials were past, and the then per- fect Johnnie wept, Alexander-like, because he could see no new worlds to conquer. Then by chance he turned his gaze upon the feminine world, and from thenceforth, he has ever endeavored to untie a Gordian knot, which seems to him impossible of performance. Many a better man has met defeat in tackling this same proposition so Murdock need have no cause to feel downeast. This year to the surprise of everyone fincluding himselfj john sud- denly blossomed forth as the leader of the Junior Class. lint, after receiving the congratulations of Dr. Fell and holding the center of the stage for a couple of months, John, like the comet that he is, retired into blissful rest and oblivion. In june the comet will reappear above the horizon of his studies, a victor over all his tribulations. Then will follow a second retirement into the mountains of Washington County, and a final and far greater appearance in that county as the supreme success of them all. l 63 l9l7 IRA BRYANT TALTON, ull'8,n uRedB,, Pocomoiclz Crrv, Mn.

To this we have only one objection, feeling as we do a certain amount of sympathy for the fair sex. We dread to think of the broken hearts he would leave behind him in the many ports of his cruise. Indeed, in recent years, he has been quite a bird in his feminine conquests, and like a bird Hitting from place to place. just as one thinks he and some nice girl are settled down, away he Hies to another and so it goes.

Nothing pleases him more than to shoulder his gun, assemble his dogs, and with one or two amateurs to praise his efforts, to hunt and hunt and hunt-until Kingdom Come if necessary. ln his Freshman and Sophomore years, Doug was. to speak a la slang on the blink insofar as the military life did not interfere with the other necessary phases of college activities. But when the mil- itary life interfered with other things, then Doug dropped the mil- itary life. But today he is a full-fledged lieutenant.

Some may think so, but just listen to him when he explains how, in case of war, he would not fight against Germany, proving him- self, through the principles of International Law, to be a Loyal German Citizen. Well, the authorities at the Navy Yard have sent out the destroyers and Bailey and Biddle to search the Severn in the vicinity of St. Helena Island to ascertain whether or not he had established a wireless station thereabouts to signal his Fatherland's sub-sea-ships. Vonnie never has much to say about the war, mainly because of the fact that it is useless on Senior tloor or because he, like the other Deutchmen, hates to ad- mit that he is wrong in such a vital question. CIt appears that he is looking ahead, does it not?1 From all appearances, our Friend Pretzels has little to do with the ladies, but we dare not certify anything in this line, for as you know he lives next door to Sherwood Forest, where so many fair maidens dwell.

EORGE NOAH WEAVER, the brusqnc youth from the shores of Lake Owasco, New York State, entered St. john's Preparatory School not unused to the ways of the world. After serving one term in this department of St. Iohn's he entered into the toils of college life, bearing with him an excellent scholastic record, but this attainment was doomed to sudden destruction, in view of the fact that 'college life offered so many more interesting objects to draw his attention. Upon the opening of the college in George's Sophomore year, we Gnd him a renowned corporal. After serving this office diligently, the King of Military Tactics saw in Fats a future general, and in his junior year he was made a sergeant, and so we see that George is gradually coming to the front. Finally Shorty appreciating the good work of Sergeant Weaver bestowed on him the same dis- tinguislied rank that he had held in the previous year. This young man has not been completely ignored by the fair sex, for he has been successful enough to secure a fine young wife from the land of his origin, old New York State, and that is not all - ?. With all of his many faults, we cannot but admire Fats for his good nature, his benevolent disposition, and last but not least, his great ambition to be a marine officer, and in his future life may there be nothing to mar the happiness of George and his loved ones. 68 l9l7 NICHOLAS DODGE WOODWARD, unodgen AN NAl'0l.l s, Mn.

The faculty bravely shel- tered the poor little homesick lads who entered St. john's that fall. lly the way, it was a cruel fact for us that the g'duster was cremated and the G. O. H. buried. NVQ were the last class to be valets and the first class to do without, them. And we were awarded twenty-five demerits per capita because the kind Com- mittee on Discipline did not approve of our method of officially augmenting the class, as will soon be mentioned. Our ranks looked somewhat depleted as we began our second year, but we soon found a young multitude to take their places. Six f'regulars and eight pre-medios were added to ,I7. The former were Cox, Crum, AX. ll. Noble, Stanford, llurgess and Spicknall: the latter, llrown, Gleason, Sheppard, l l. Mc' Comas, XVest, Dunphy, llorine and llowen. All these became sophs,', but not without due ceremony, which took place on the instalment plan. Holy Cross Dunphy et al. did the Statue of Liberty act, and some others in Number one. Number two was featured by a musicale in which Cox's yodeling was accom- panied by a Victrola, consisting of a trunk and Houston Noble. An outdoor party to Dick llurgess in March completed the initiations. Carey Jarman was chosen to pilot '17 in her Sophomore year, and we have not permitted him to leave the bridge to this day. 73 N3 5?

C.'s on the basket- ball teamg Brown was the third of the class to make his mark on the diamond, Fell and Goldsborough were one and two on the tennis team, and the two Nobles shared fourth place on the relay team. Qn the drill grounds we had nine corporals. The opening of Junior year found a goodly number of the class on the retired list. The embryo doctors had gone to the University, and others saw fit to enter business. Those who returned won- dered what the year had in store for them in the H y 4 way of non-com appointments. Jarman and Freeny were the two First Sergeants, Sommer- ville was Battalion Quartermaster-Sergeant, and l'rice was Principal musician. This gave us four positions often held by Seniors. Our R.x'1'-Tiw, of which Cox was editor-in- chief, was an exceptionally good one, as it was full of new ideas. Our June Ball Committee made the Farewell Ball a brilliant success. The middle of that year was clouded by Som- merville's untimely death. He was one of the truly loyal members of the class, and one to whose jovility we owe many a pleasant hour. In athletics four mo1'e ,I7 men received,monograms-Crum and VVoodward for football, Burgess for baseball and A. H. Noble for track. In studies Cox, von Schwerdtner and Curfman received certificates, and Hnished in the order named. The advent of the Senior year found our class increased in number.

There- fore, looking back over our College career, let us say that we have done our duty in upholding the honor of our Alma Mater, and a little more. We have helped to put St. john's in the big ten twice, and are doing our best to repeat this year. Twelve lI7 men have won their monograms while rep- resenting the College in one sport or another. VVoodward and john Noble have spoken in inter-collegiate oratorical contests. The debating team had the former as a member last year, while this year the latter, Stanford and von Schwerdtner are counted on it. ln the noble art of fussing, nobody excels john Storm and .l ris Nad- dox. Bees Wachter used to hold a monopoly, but since he left and Snooks broke in, the majority have also become past masters. Houston Noble and Dick 'Burgess are a howling success as comedians. The last two RAT-TA'l'S owe much to drawings and cartoons from I-Iouston's skilled hand. Wfe expect to see this hand poke fun at everybody in general and nobody in particular in the newspapers QPunkville Gazettej some day.

Marion Cox is now a colonel, and is in line for 78 K 4.09 ,,,, A .Jimi ,,,, Q lM,,,Am,,Q,,,W promotion to Brigadier-general. Carey reached the rank of captain, but after two years' service he grew tired of overwork and resigned to take up another profession. For the simple reason that he knew no one expected him to do so, he began the study of theology, and is now a full-fledged minister. His specialty is the performance of marriage ceremonies in Elkton, which is the get- ting-off place of so many young about-to-be-man ried couples from Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Who would have thought it of him? And who knows what Carey may undertake next? On June I, IQ33, a man with light red hair and medium build approached a rather pretentious farmhouse in South Carolina. He bore a Bible under his arm, and his features reminded one of-no, not of Reds Spicknall-Ira Tarlton. And it was he. I had veen visiting Jimmy Brashears, who owned this colonial house, and Ira had just arrived in town, not to preach, but to sell Bibles. And he had been remarkably successful. It is said that many a family who hardly knew what the Bible was had purchased one after Irais glowing account. That night we had a regular St. John's reunion, and, be- lieve mc, Jimmy's wife sure is some housekeeper. The next morning, when the mail came in, I ran across a package of Government seeds, addressed to e i Jimmy, whose broad and well-cultivated fields proclaimed that he needed them not. But what I noticed in particular was the following inscription in the right-hand corner, Compliments of N. Dodge Woodward, Representative from the Sec- ond District of South Carolina. Dodge had moved down in that country and had convinced the people that he knew something about the art of statecraft. And his participation in Congres- sional debates had about proven that the people were right when they believed him.

That was back in 1925, when I ran into him coming out of the Independent Pawnshop as I was about to enter. I-Ie had no coat on, despite the fact that it was winter weather, and though tact forbade me to inquire the reason, I guessed that the grasping broker had separated him from his jacket in ex- change for a few bits. fTact should also prevent your inquiring as to my own reason for entering the pawnshop. The law is such an uncertain busi- ness.j After congratulating Ray upon a particu- larly fine work in Munsey's and discussing old times for fifteen minutes, I entered the shop, only to encounter behind the desk Prism Maddox. Not having the courage to transact such an em- barrassing business with an old friend, I told him that I had known that he was in there, and had come down to chat with him. I-le told me that he and his partner, John Noble, had developed a big business, and that john was now away on a business trip. It developed later that this business trip was a visit to a prominent building in Baltimore for charging illegal and exorbitant rates of in- terest, and that the visit would extend for eighteen months, the maximum allowed by the law at that time for this offense. We expected Noble to take up the law, but it has unfortunately developed that the law took up Noble. Let us turn to the New 'York Sim of April Ioth, 1932. A glaring headline tops the front page: , KAISER ABDICATES. Pinsivnlzu VON SCHWERDTNIQR Talclzs REINS or Gov1aRNM1zN'r. This news was, strange to say, no surprise to me, for ever since his return to his native land Vonnie had been rapidly rising. But our inter- est in the paper is not yet exhausted, for written on the sporting page we discover the name Freeny at the head of the batting averages with the mark of .382. The paper's comment was, The veteran First baseman is still leading the league, and if he continues his present gait, the prospects for his sixth consecutive year of honors are exceedingly 80 -, .... ..., .... .... . . .5 10'-I.,, ,.... Z .7 ..- ..... 7 ,,, bright. The back page held still another bit of news: Spicknall Nets fElO0,000 in lfinal Collec- tion. Evangelist Converts Old Schoolmatef' The first paragraph of the article read: pathetic scene was enacted today in the now famous sawdust trail, when the evangelist, Spick- nall, in the greatest sermon yet delivered by him, before Hfty thousand people, converted an old schoolmate, 'Heinie' llowers, a member of his class at St. John's College. It appears that the latter had for years been selling patent medicines in much the sensational method now employed by the evangelist, but he declared that henceforth he would devote his life to just such work as the famous 'Reds' is doing today. lt was my pleasure a year ago Christmas to enjoy my Christmas dinner with Fats Andrew and Fats Wfeaver and their respective wives. They, too, took a short fling at the Marine Corps, but left and entered the business of road cont- struction with llarry's father. Now Harry is president and George vice-presi- dent, and the business has gained a national reputation. Two members of the class hold prominent positions in more or less well- known cities. Shorty Curfman and Dick Burgess both settled in the towns they liked best, and today the door to the ollice of XfValter R. Curfman bears his name, followed by the inscription : Mayor of Lib- ertytown, justice of the Peace, Town ltlailiff, Life Insurance and Plumbing.

Ralph Crum studied law, and practiced, too, until he discovered that running a matrimonial agency was more profitable. He still spends his leisure hours playing gleefully on the clarinet. One of his most recent clients was Pee Wee Jewell, who still meekly runs his father's store. ' .He discovered in business that It pays to adver- tise, and decided to advertise for a wife. Ralph Crum saw his advertisement and came to his rescue with a successful termination. Snooks Harrison studied medicine and got married at the earliest opportunity. He is now engaged in separating fellow-humans from their various useless organs and their various useless simoleons. Qlohn Fell has had a rather adventurous existence. Ile played tennis until he was twenty-two, at which age he was' runner-up in the National tournament. He then took up war correspondents work, at which he was able to do a rushing business, but as the war correspondent business has now gone on the decline, his literary work is confined to writing magazine articles. Associated together in later life, just as in College, we find Doug Thomp- son and Davy Davidson sitting side by side in Exhibit 1, Barnum 81 l3ailey's Most Sensational Show on Earth. Doug is the circus fat man and Davy is the human skeleton. They are both very successful theatrical people, as it may be seen that they have reached the highest ambition of a theatrical troupe- to be with Barnum 81 Hailey. 82 VVe have seen the future history of each member of the class except the Prophet, and modesty forbids further comment in this respect. Some of the class were very successful, some were more or less successful, and some were less successful. But let the truth be told-it was a grand old class. 83 f f f 1 f W f lIidito1 s Note.--The following tablet, erected in IQIS by the Class of 1917 tells a sud story all its ownl : IN MILMORIAM lcklccrl-Ln IN nla1.ov1c1m R1f:Mm1R1xANc1a OF HENRY LAURIZNSON DASI-IIlCl.L STANFORD, JR.

When Clyde starts getting off his jokes, it is hard to keep the squir- rels away, as they think he is a nut, and most people agree with them.

However, he must be a fair noise producer as is evidenced by his recent election as leader of the orchestra, a band of young men who frequently infest McDowell Hall, supposedly for practice, in the most advanced way to make a noise.

To say the least, his stay here has been a most beneficial one in this respect. sfsfsfw lzver since l'lon1er'l plod his weary way up the Sacred Walk three years ago and thrust himself upon us, he impressed us especially with his power ot' speech. ln his tirst year here he was never known to speak a word.

The only words uttered hy him were I am glad to meet you and Good-hyefl lie- tween these words he continuously shook his head in approval, or laughed when it was necessary. . ln his second year he gained considerably in this respect, for our questions were answered with a grunt and occasionally with a muftled word. This year, since his habitation with Dutch Schuele, one often hears him engaged in a heated conversation now and then. In spite of his quietness, however, since he has been at St. Johu's this youth has learned of some of the pleasures that make a student's life happier. 1-le indulges in a social correspondence with utmost excessivencss, and is rumored to be the recipient of twenty-page letters.

He always likes to get in an argument Of SOIUC li111d,-and If lille other fellow refuses to take the opposite side he will take it himself and so start things going. Matty is a rose of the old regime, to use the expression of the Bcntztown Bard, for he has been around here long enough to write a good history of St. John's in ye olden days. His stay traces back to the time when hazing was an uncensored pastime, and when mous- taches and beards were worn by the students. But he has adv?-11CCf1 considerably in this time-showing the marvelous effect of St. Iohn's on a country boy. And Matty loves his bed as no one else does. Reveille and mess call mean nothing to him in the morning, and as a result many Maddox absent 'breakfast' reports are read out in the chapel. Never mind Matty, there are many iuore in the same boat as you..

Shep is determined to have an audience. When his .orations fail him he resorts to a laborious but yet a renumerative practice. He opened up a barber shop on Junior floor. This seemed to gain him popular favor among his fellow students when he offered to do things which had to be done at reduced rates. Everything is most modern in this unsanitary tonsorial parlor, and a model for Annapolis barbers to go by. 1-lis first chair is of the rare Gothic architectural type, and, as the poet says, a thing of beauty is a joy forever. He uses hacksaw razors, curry combs, pblarine axle grease, Du Pont powder, in fact all the necessary and unnecessary tools and cosmetics that help to make the physiog- nomy beautiful. However, he has the nerve, grit and get there determination, and we hope as he climbs the lofty heights of success no obstacle will be too great for him to dispose of, and that the Gods of Fate will always smile upon him. 1918 RUSSEL EVANS SMITH, Dutch RouNn BAY, Mn. .S'r1'c'i1Iific Course.

The thoroughness with which he executes his present military duties leads us to believe that later he desires to join the personnel of the commissioned officers in the United Stats Army, but what- ever walk of life he pursues. Wig will make a success. 114 1918 THOMAS NORWOOD WILSON, Buster , Tommie 1'lEllRON, Mo. l.atin-Scivnlific. Kappa .fllplla Fra1m'n1'1y.

SZ4 WL INCE Hliuslerl' came into our crowd, we have noticed several of his faults, the chief one being his inability to hear reveille. At tirst the bugle only had to sound and he was awake, but week by week his ability became weakened until finally the united 1 efforts of the bugle and his room-mate scarcely had any effect upon him. The climax was reached when a second reveille blown six inches from his ear, left Buster still sleeping on. His great love for sleep caused him to lose his Corporal chevrons-for one day when he was O. G., Assembly sounded and the post tlag was still down. To late! Too late! to take your postg This morn you dine on poor milk,toast. ' gf, During his wakeful moments he has acquired in his own opinion quite a reputation as a pitcher. ln fact he almost made us think so by his sterling performance against Navy, for a third inning, but alas, his sad performances when pitching for the Reserve team has driven all such ideas from our minds. To hear him telling the time when he batted the ball over the fence on Tucker we are lead to he- lieve he is some batter, but to see him swinging at a ball one can easily believe that his bat has a repulsive feeling ,toward the hall. But with his few faults, Buster has many noble traits, and we all join in wishing him a happy and prosperous career as he goes forth into life. v:zf3-gpg-4 52315-Z7 115 1918 RICHARD R. P.

Motto: His gwrztcst failure is l1'if'l'I'-'Et'l1l'd'.U lNDY , we must admit, is a peculiar person, for he has ideas, habits and hobbies all his own. and it is diftieult to nmkc him change-them. Q,g,4,g,Q He has an optimistic way of looking upon his studies, believing most lnghly in Sfsfs'x'v his ability to pass off work by means of exams instead of class work. He very seldom attends classes, he cares not whether he gets soaked for he has charge of the demerit book, and at the end of the term one finds him working away, trying to pass the work off. lf everyone carried out VVindy's theory there would be no need of this extraneous paraphernalia around college, including' Jack, Bob and Duckey. All this great C?D expense would be saved, and the honor system would only be tested twice a year. ' ' Windy is a military man. When one hears his melodious voice squeak out f-o-r-w-a-r-d m-a-r-c-h, thought of the happiness oi this world vanishes, while those of pestots, poison and rope spring up in order to end this miserable existence. Some day he will learn. His experiences and troubles on the border were many, and from these have originated that motto which has trailed him throughout the year: 4 Oh death, where is thy sting? Oh grave, where thy victory! Yet with all these slight imperfections Windy is a true St. John's man, a man always ready to help his fellow school mates, and has the interest of the ,lunior Class at heart.

IWENCKIS. .... .......... l -Iistorian Eluninr liiztnrg Ellie Sinus Age f 'Lag N LY three years ago a band of youths landed and took up their fi 1 abode at this place, called St. john's, and since that time they 4 3 have labored here, working hard, so that they might prosper in the future. It has been three rounds of constant fighting and -- HY' plugging. VVith only one more round before them, with pleasant remembrances of the past, and with that same love for noble Kadim a St. john's which has moved more than one man to action, they still continue to push on toward that goal called Victory. To write a history of such a class is a difhcult proposition, since it is a continuous series of achievements and successes. The arrival of this Junior Class of today in the fall of 1914 was a quiet one, since all forms of hazing had been obliterated. However, since the Royal Persuader was abolished several receptions were given in our honor in Pinkney Hall, to which we were invited, and at which meetings we were gently reminded of the rules and traditions of St. john's that must be obeyed. These we obeyed throughout the year, and thus when our Sophomore year came We were able to give this little advice to our younger brethren at College. But our nume1'ous activities as Freshmen must not be overlooked. In athletics Turner, Maddox, W. J., Holmes, Nathan and Gardner were on the football squad, Turner starring as fullback on the first team and winning a place on the All-Maryland team that year. Tucker, in baseball, played on the first nine, while Wilson, Wigton and Mack made the second team. In track, Holmes showed considerable prowess, being on the relay team and the 440-yard runner. In academic work also our class upheld its reputation, a goodly number of the men getting on the honor roll each month. L. Hall carried off high honors in this line, with W. E. Mack second. 119 ai' Ant ,,,, A .MHA .,., 4 ,,, Zhll 1 Uhr Grunge Age With the pleasant thoughts of the past year in our mind, we returned in the fall of 1915 only to meet a number of new faces. Wfe soon broke them into the mysteries of St. John's, telling them not to walk on the grass, down the sacred walk, etc. A few, however, luckier than the rest, were taken into our class before Christmas, and are with us now. They are Cook, Mencke, XfVhite, Magruder, VVinslow, DeVries, NVatson, Lowman and Bradley, with Quevedo, Matthews, Holden, F. B. Smith, Broadrup and Costas of the pre-medical class. In athletics our class still pushed ahead. In football Turner again was a 'Varsity man. Cook made many of the trips, while VV. Maddox, DeVries, Magruder and Holden worked hard on the squad. Basket-ball season found Cook and VVatson as substitutes on the first team, each of them promising great things in the future. Tucker, Iilzey and Lowman held regular positions on the baseball team, while Mack, VVigton and Shephard played on the second team. Academic work in our Sophomore year was of high standing, L. Hall still leading, with Mencke, Cook, Bradley and Mack closely following. . Uhr Svilurr Age Alas, we have come to our junior year, the year which means so much for the class and for the College. Our RAT-TAT 1nust be the best ever publishedg our june Ball must be a success. Are we capable of succeeding in these lines? Taking into consideration the men that are managing these enterprises-first, the RAT-TA'r Board, which consists of J. XV. Knighton, editor-in-chief, a man of diplomacy and rare business abilityg J. R. Sheetz, assistant editor, a hard worker and true St. QIohn's mang men as Mack and Mencke of the business staff, and VVigton and Maddox of the advertising department, an important essential of such a publication-you will agree with us that nothing short of a Busy Bertha can stop us. The June Ball, too, is being thoroughly attended to by five able men-Knighton, chairmang Sheetz, secretary 5 Mencke, DeVrics and Tucker, elected from our midst. This year when we returned many faces were not here that should have been. It was not their fault, nor can it be blamed on Uncle Sam, but they answered the call to the colors when the United States troops were needed on the Border, and there they were when September 20th rolled around. Those men of the junior class who returned from this service in October and whom we have unanimously put on the honor roll of this class are Sheetz, Tucker, 120 gli A ,A ,,., A ..'1,,,.Q.,,f A 4 ,,,Zm,,Z,,,W i I-Iolmes, DeVries, VVinslow and NValbeck. With the addition of these men our class was able to come back to its original form again, shining in all branches of school activities. Cook was a mainstay in the backfield of the 'Varsity eleven, getting in many of the games and shining in his old-time form. W. J. Maddox, DeVries, Watsoii and Magruder worked hard for the team, although they were not able to make it. However, their chances for getting on next year's team are very bright. In basket-ball Cook played forward on the team throughout the season, while Watsoii also played in many of the games. Baseball season found Tucker again as the 'Varsity pitcher, with lilzey and Lowman on the hrst team, while Mack and Wigtoii were on the second team. In track Holmes and Sheppard were practically the foundation of the squad, both of these men being on the relay team. The academic work, due to the many other school activities that arise in this year and hard schedules, was not of so high standing as in the two former years, but we still managed to get some of our men on the honor roll. Among these are Wilsoii, Mack, Mencke, Knighton and Cook. Naturally in our stay here we have all become interested in military affairs. As a result, many of the men of this class came back this year and saw positions thrust upon them calling for increased duties and responsibilities. Of the higher ranking men are Tucker our Adjutant and VVinsl0w as Quartermaster- Sergeant of the Battalion, with Sheetz and Holmes as First Sergeants and DeVries as Color Sergeant. Chiefly upon these men will fall the highest honors in the military department next year. In literary lines, too, members of this class have shown exceptional ability, VV. J. Maddox, Sheppard and Mencke have taken the most interest in this kind of work, going out each year for the debating team and oratorical contests. After this review of activities in which our class and the College have been interested and concurred, it will perhaps be well to comment on the activities of the men themselves-1Jersonally-about their love alfairs, peculiar character- istics, etc. The first thing that suggests itself is love. The Class of 1918 boasts of many of those fellows of the amative and celestial lines of Shakespeare of many types and of different degrees. Some of these have already worked for and earned their Ph.D.'s in this subject. After looking through the members of the class, three men stand out prominently-- Bill' Knighton, Bob Sheetz and Bill DeVries-and then each of these men have been overcome by the fumes of this fascinating disease in different ways. We have, too, some brilliant authors of love letters in our midst, who, it seems, wish to surpass those delightful lines written by our old ancestor, Gov- ernor Wintlirop of Massachusetts. J, Russelln Cook leads in this department, 121 k i da ,,,, L ,,,, receiving, as someone has put it, more mail than the rest of Junior floor put together, and writing more than than anyone else. But our friend, Owen Friend of Friendsville, is a close second, for many times you can see him reading letters received from a nearby State. You cannot imagine how quickly Owen has been thoroughly civilized by his stay at St. jol1n's. Hard workers a1'e very evident among us. Shorty Mack, who has charge of the bank account, is always busy doing one thing or the other. R. E. Smith, Bradley, VVatson and Schuele follow on closely. Among the jocular and optimistic ones Lowman, who is the source and supply of all slang expressions used at St. John's, leads, Nelson, Tucker and Bourke supporting him in his pleasant endeavors. Maddy, White, VVindy and jake Pearce are put in the easy-going class, since they seem to drift along slowly, contented with the world, and the world smiles back and enjoys their contentedness. N-o-r-w-o-o-d VVilson and lilzey and Watson are perhaps the biggest sleepers, with Nutty Holmes, Northan and Otis Gardner following on. Of dancers we have many, but Magruder, who is chief exhibitor of the latest dances at Ocean City during the summer months, and Bill VVigton have shown conclusively that they know a whole lot about this indoor sport. There are also two men in our class who love to argue and talk, who cry out loudly, An augument, an augument! My kingdom for an augument! In this line Azel Sheppard leads. He is always ready to start an argument of some kind, whether it be on free love or cutting hair. The other one is the Duke Mencke. He generally has a good line of talk on hand that is enough to overcome any ordinary man on entering his room. There is still one remaining, who, the writer must admit, cannot be classi- fied. This unusual creature, our expert on military affairs, is Greasy Nathan. To quote him directly, he is a man of the world, a humanitarian, a blessing to all mankind. Just look at his write-up, gentle reader. and you will learn the peculiarities of this so-different man, and will see why he is put under this head. ' These are the members of the Class of Eighteen as they stand and are commented upon by the writer in a light manner. And so we have labored hard in this our Junior year, since it requires more time, energy and even pecuniary funds than any other yea1'. In this work the RAT-'l'Afr, we sincerely believe that we have taken a step forward in present- ing the friends of the College a publication worthy of the strictest attention, and worthy to be called a product of St. John's. It has been a difficult task, but with men in our class who were ready to make personal sacrifices in order to make this book a success we were bound to present it in good form. 122 W A fa ,,,, L ,,,, 4 One Ill01'C round now lies before us, the most important one so far as the Col- lege and ourselves are concerned. Upon us, the juniors this year and the Seniors next year, depends whether we shall keep up the high standing of this institution in academic, military, athletic and literary lines. 'l'o look through our class and to analyze each member separately as to his own particular quality and type we are sure that you will agree with us that St. John's next year will again go forward with a leap and bound, as in former years. And thus we all think that the Class of IQIS has upheld the dignity and honor of this noble old College to its loftiest height, and we think also that when we leave here next year with our diplomas in hand the College will feel deeply our departure and realize more than before the good effects of our having come here. H1s'roRIAN. ibm' iinnvgmnnn, nr a Zlnurnvg tn :Swv ibm' Gllzummatra One balmy spring day I decided to take my bride, ELZEY, down to Annapolis to see the sights of the quaint capital of Maryland. Fully prepared for a pleasant trip, we set out, and had not gone very far before we passed a nice row of HOLMES, in one of which we spotted our old FRIEND SCI-IUELE, sewing bachelor buttons on TUCKER'S full dress. Of course, this was a very strange action, but it did not prepare us for the unique sight of President NVILSON watching the GARDNER and his son NATHAN trying to PEARCE the WALBECK of the black-SMITH shop. A little further on I met MAGRUDER wrestling with MENCKE, who quickly secured a half NELSON, and then said: Mister, doesn't the LOXVMAN lose? -lust outside of Annapolis I saw a COOK trying to cross a meadow in which was a MADDOX. The infuriated beast charged upon the helpless per- son, who turned VVI-IITE as SI-IEETZ, but the SI-IEPIJARD NORTHAN, fol- lowed by his dog Doo Little BRADLEY, rushed to her aid. I-Iurrying away from this awful scene, we were stopped by Patrolman BOURKE, who asked me for my license. Fortunately enough, I was able to produce the license that showed we had been duly married. I-Iowever, it was too dark, and he could not read it until the town electrician, XVIGTON, turned the WATSON. Wie proceeded down the boulevard, escorted by a KNIGI-ITON horseback and his squire DeVRIES. The two nobles acted as our bodyguard, and we finished our trip to WINSLOW junction without further adventures. 123 J Ellie Svnphii' igartg I Ah, how clearly I remember! Twas the tenth day of December That the Class of ,IQ launched upon An errand of renown. From the rated men and doctors Ten men came, the would-be proctors Of the Freshmen and unrated men That have to be kept down. And like sheep led, to the slaughter Came these men with many a falter To the dread initiation that the Sophomores had prepared. Believe me, folks, but they were scared! II 'With many a palpitating flutter First came Gross, and then Archetto, Followed by the valiant Tilghman, Burton, Higgins and O'Rourk. Then in mood by no means merry Gattens, Jumblatt, johns and Terry Stood before the awful spectre, and In mind and body shook, For the great ordeal impending Through their frames cold chills was sending And the moment was before them, Should they stop or Let's go, men? vi 'Twas O'Rourk once again. III In our class was a committee, Gathered both from farm and city, XV ho had made out quite a program For the entertaining show. NVe looked on while CVC1'y actor Took a chew of Schnapps tobacco, And the outcome of the matter I think everyone should know. For our class had sadly fated, And no one expectoratedg Thus the juice accumulating Slowly trickled down their throat. And that juice sure got their goat. fcontinuecl on page I3-0 124 A 8? X xv .

D, as Columbus said when he discovered the tube under the -,V X Hudson River, That is more truth than poetry. XfVith varying ambitons and emotions we, the Sophomore ew' Class of ,IQ, of john's College, returned once more to the old Alma Mater in the fall of 1916 and took up our abode 1n Vy zx the halls that have sheltered many great men even before our time. Some were looking forward to the fame with which they were to cover themselves with 'glory in athleticsg others of our number were making resolutions to distinguish themselves in the academic departmentg still others were wondering how it would feel to walk on the grass or up and down the Sacred VValk now that their Rat year was over. As we gazed affec- tionately upon the initial stripe of which our sleeves boasted we realized more strongly than ever that we were really a unit of this grand old College. liven while we were still students of the infant variety, otherwise known as Freshmen, we felt that we did very well in athletics, as well as with the work of a more serious nature. During the baseball season two of our number-- Lowe and Polk-won their C. by playing on the Varsity, while M. C. Turner and Smoky Joe Smith played very well on the reserves. On the track squad Trayer and C. C. Holmes did very good work. Upon our return to College this year we found an unusually large number of Freshmen to look after, so we lost no time in showing them all the pleasures of college life. The following experiment has worked wonders so far: To one green Freshman Class add some concentrated discipline, heat well Qwith rulesj under strict supervision until a solution is made. Set aside for a week to cool. VVhen green precipitate forms, throw it away. The remaining solution is found to be a very good specimen at the end of the year. The following rated men were taken into our class: Archetto, H. V. Brown, Fisher, Gattens, Gelhaus, Gross, Hargest, Hernandez, F. Hitchcock, Johns, jumblatt, Klebach, Lentz, McCann, MacMannis, O'Rourk, Plasnig, Raub, Slade, Steele, Terry, Tilghman and NVolf. Most of these men have been doing very good work in every branch of college life, and we are glad to have them members of our class. The '16 Varsity football team had several of our representatives. Bennett, M. C. Turner, Lentz and Plasnig were permanent fixtures throughout the whole season, while the squad was greatly increased by other members of our class. Also in basket-ball 0L11' men are a great asset to the team. Lentz is doing particularly good work, while Harris and MacMannis are giving the squad their earnest support. As for academic work, a glance at the honor rolls will assure you that here, as elsewhere, we are not lacking. In fact, there is no mark or ideal too high for us to strive to attain in behalf of our beloved Alma Mater. With the thought Duty, Honor, Country ever before us, and the motto Be sure you're right and then go ahead, we feel that we cannot fail, and in our success only reflect greatness upon this old institution 'hat we have learned to love.

V The best thing in our endeavor- And it really was quite clever- Was the way we all turned barbers And their hair was shaved and shorng For upon each victim's topnot We cleared off a lovely bald spot, And the sight which they presented Was, to say the least, forlorn.

These were to compose the Freshman 1 Q Class of 1916. We came from the East, the West, the North ah, 4 and the South, some were accompanied by mothers and fathers, QQQQ 9 , . f w.,-.g,,,v.,i:ii r- 1 fp, 'wg while others made the perilous journey alone. But what mat- ter from where we came, how we came or with whom we came? The fact remains that we were here. WWM M I The tirst three days passed in a perfect round of joy. We were, truly, in our own minds, the lords of all we surveyed. The Sacred Walk was often desecrated by ignorant Freshmen, and many an alien foot trod upon the forbidden grass. But this life of ignorance was soon to end, for the Sopho- mores kindly invited us to a social gathering which was held in Room 35 Pinkney Hall, and during the course of this meeting they, acting the part of gentlemanly advisers, pointed out to us the course of the straight and narrow path in which we were to tread during our Freshman year, and gave to us our inspiring motto, Speak when you are spoken to, and come when you are called, which we have tried so hard to follow. Then for many months we heard of Freshmen buying reveille buttons, seats in chapel and many other things necessary for our advancement. Though our trials were many, nevertheless we, with the assistance of our worthy predecessors, elected our class president, George Barnes. By this time we were getting into the swing of affairs, and when the call for football was sounded many of our members responded gallantly. Ligon Coyner was the only candidate from our class who was able to make the team, yet several others showed marked ability, and they will no doubt be the stars in the years to come. ln basket-ball our class is not represented on the tirst team, but we have several men, Larrabce, Coyner and Recher, who are on the second team. These and a few-others in our class, with a few years' experience, will possibly become the members of a very strong aggregation. On the cinder path our representation is small, but such men as Hitchcock, Sellner and Davis will augment the prospects of the squad for this season. 138 tx - .... ..., .... ....... Q 1 f '-.,, ........ .... ........ 2 XRWWFWWTXWTX Qt 4.,r,,Q,L.1,,,,Q ,,,, 4 Baseball season has not yet opened, and as I am by no means Ll prophet, I cannot predict what the season will bring forth, but from the number of candidates who have expressed their intention of going out I am thoroughly convinced that we will make as good, if not a better, showing in this sport than in any other. Last, but of greatest importance, we have done good work in the classroom. Among the best in the academic line are Recher, Fryer, Hall and Lloyd, who exempted every study the first term. Several others had to take but one or two examinations, and most of the remainder passed safely across the turbulent waters of the mid-year exams, deciding to break the record during the present term. All these achievements, both in athletics and academic work, are but small in comparison with what we hope to do. Our class is one of the largest that has ever entered the College, and we certainly intend to make it one of the greatest, so that when we, the Class of 1920, leave dear old St. john's she will be as proud of us as we have been of her.

McNeill, St. john's sprang into prominence by being classed three consecutive years by the War Department as one of the ten distinguished military institutions of the United States, the highest possible rating any college or university may win. Our present com- mandant, Lieut. John Millikin, 5th Cavalry, U. S. A., is maintaining the high standard set hy Lieut. Mc- Neill, and has promulgated many changes worthy of note. Under his direction a unit of the Reserve Officers' Training Corps of the Army has been established. Training begins with theoretical in- struction, closely followed by practical application, under which the ability to shoulder responsibility is formed. Besides our daily drill, practice marches, maneuvers and gymnastics, an annual camp is held. During past years St. John's has put one honor man in the Army each year. However, this year the VVar Department re- quested ten men from the present Senior Class and ten from last yea1 s class to accept commissions as second lieutenants in the Army, ten men to be com- missioned in the Marine Corps and three in the Pay Corps of the Navy.

But the Devil went down to look at the truck, And said if he took it as a gift he was stuck, For after examining it carefully and well He concluded the place was too dry for a hell. So in order to get.it off His hand, The Lord promised the Devil to water the land, For He had some water, or rather, some dregs- A regular cathartic, and smelled like had eggs. Hence the trade was closed, the deed was given, And the Lord went back to His home in heaven, The Devil said to himself, I have all that is needed To make a good hell, and hence he succeeded. 1 1 , ,q no 158 :N . i f .... ..., , .,.. , .... .7 ..,7f.:.,0 .....

He lengthened the horns of the Texas steer, And put an addition on the rabbits' ears, He put a little devil in the b1'01lCl1O steed, And poisoned the feet of the centipede. The rattlesnake bites you, the scorpion stings, The mosquito delights you with his buzzing wings, The sand burrs prevail, and so ,do the ants, And those who sit down need half-soles on their pants. The Devil then said that throughout the land He'd arrange to keep up the Devil's own brand, And all should be Mavericks unless they bore Marks and scratches of bites and thorns by the score. The heat in the summer is a hundred and ten- Too hot for the Devil and too hot for men, Tl1e wild boar roams through the black Chaparral- I 'lfis a hell of a place that he has for hell. 160 if ,,,, L .MM ,,,, QBLI1' flings nn thv Enrhrr TURDAY night, June 15th, 1916, was a jovial one at St. Iohn's. The t'gym, all decorated with pennants, banners and pretty- ' colored lights, welcomed a large crowd to join the Kappa Alpha's and Phi Sigma Kappals in a much-enjoyed dance. Most of the girls were to remain in town to join in the merriment of our Farewell Ball and the good times of Commencement. St. m john's was tense with excitement, caused by the anticipation of the good times in store for June week, when on tl1at memor- able Sunday night as one approached his dormitory after a pleasant evening with his fair one he heard the familiar war song, Just Before the Battle, Mother, being sung throughout the buildings. Wliat could this mean, he asked himself, only to be answered by a passer-by, The First Regiment, Maryland National Guard. has been ordered to mobilize at once, and for the first time since Moss drilled him in a baseball uniform in a down-pouring rain did he realize that he belonged to the St. john's platoon of the First Maryland Infantry, Machine Gun Company.

You see, we were heroes, or about to be anyway, which was just as good. NVe arrived at Laurel at 3 P. M., and were greeted by a grand drenching thunderstorm. And, to cap the climax, our Sibley tents did not arrive until after dark, when we put them up by lantern light. It was IO P. M. before we got our supper, and you can bet we did justice to it. Incidentally it was at this meal that we ate our hrst mashed potatoes made from skins and all. Qui' stay at Laurel was at first very interesting, but after a week of it, it became the most tiresome place in all the world.

Never before had the reality of being a true soldier appealed to us as it did at Laurel. Everybody told us how brave we were, and how we would be missed. Our importance in this world had never seemed so evident. Bundles, which we called letters, arrived daily, the majority of which, in many cases, were in the same handwriting. How hard it was to lay one of them aside when detailed for kitchen duty! On June goth our stay at Laurel ended. At last we were to leave. XVe broke camp and marched through Laurel to the railroad. And did Laurel sit up and noisily send us away? Not at all. But nevertheless we were glad and anxious to be on our way, though we knew not where. Sundown found us speeding on our way to Texas. To relate the many interesting events that happened on our trip to the Border would be a book itself, so we must omit the greater part of them. At every station we were hailed as the brave men who were going to light the Greasers. Sometimes we were led to believe that this was true, for at Cin-- cinnati the lfzfjzzirer published, VVar with Mexico Inevitable. Upon reading this our blood tingled with eagerness to get on the tiring line Qor back homej. Y IN CAMP 164 2 etii ill 95' da ,,,, L ,,., 4 i HARNESSING A MULE Our rations consisted chielly of hardtack, and for the iirst time we realized the reason for undergoing such a strict examination of our teeth, and wondered why the examining board was not more particular as to the ability of our digestive organs. However, the hardtack was in abundance, and served very well as name cards on which our addresses were written. These were tossed to some fair, one who, by chance, might be standing along the line as we passed through. The greatest disappointment imaginable was to spy the queen of the town, and with all exactness possible sail the would-be name card in her direc- tion, only to have it caught by a teasing breeze and carried to the feet of some old negro mammy, who, thinking it to be a chip, carried it home to start the fire in the morning. In time we came to Memphis, Tenn., which we thought was almost to the Border, and then the great, Hat rice-raising State of Arkansas. This was the hrst State that looked altogether different from our dear old Maryland. Cotton fields and rice fields passed by in rapid succession. Every now and then we would come to a little town. invariably the whole population was on the station platform to greet us. Few stops were made in iArkansas, and at 5 P. M. July gd we crossed the line at Texarkana into the great State of Texas-Texas, that l . .. e, I REsTlNc V 165 ig K 40.6 ,,,, ,limi ,,,, A 4 ,,, AMll 1 ggi-mi SEARCHING A MEXICAN grand old State of our imagination, clothed by forests in the northern part, covered with cotton fields in the central and composed of sand in the southern. At last we were there. In truth, some of us expected to find it a great desert as soon as we crossed the line from Arkansas, but we were mistaken. All night we rode through the forest. There was no end to the trees. They stretched all around us, and, except for the narrow path of the railroad, covered the ground as a. carpet might cover a floor. NfVe went to sleep that night thinking we must be mistaken about Texas and wishing for the wide-open places, even though they might be nothing but sand. Alas, how we later wished for those same trees! But ignorance is bliss, so let us continue. Bright and early the next morning, July 4th, our three trains came to XVaco and were greeted by the noise of firecrackers and the tiring of guns. Some of us, being rather timid now that we had almost gotten to our journey's end, thought perhaps Villa was making a 1'Zl.iCl, but the appearance of many young ladies caused our fears to abate, and we found it was the Fourth of July. It was here in Waco that Bill DeVries and Bull Turner iirst learned what the term military discipline really meant. Hearing the noise of the fireworks and fearing the worst, these two brave lads ducked back under cover Cbed coversj, and consequently missed reporting for the detail to which they had been assigned, and as a result were put under cover Qguardj the remainder of the trip. NVe left NVaco shortly and started south again-south, ever south. You see, we wondered about this time where we were really going anyway. But we knew that we were rapidly coming to our journey's end, and sure enough the 166 ,,,, Then came payday. Ah! the most pleasant day of all. Forgotten were our troubles, the heat, mules and all. Money verily worketh charmsfl Pres- ents from far away Texas began to travel homeward. After payday, another month. But the months seemed to go faster now. St. John's began to become well known in liagle Pass. First one, then two, then four, six, a dozen of our number began slipping away in the evening to call upon some pretty senorita. liagle Pass became a pretty good spot, after all. Lucky were they who knew a little Spanish. They could enter into conversa- tions forbidden to the others. Many parties were given by the fair young ladies of the town. One had an automobile, which was in demand most every evening. There was never any argument as to who should occupy the front seat beside the fair lady, for we knew that it was no other than our corporal, namely, Bobby Sheetz. , Gradually our stay in Texas became longer and longer. VVe began to turn longing eyes toward the North. Although the attractions of Eagle Pass were very fascinating, those of home were more so. At' last, on October 5th, the long-looked-for orders to leave came. The regiment went wild with enthusiasm. But before we could leave we must needs take a farewell hike--a big one this time, supposed to last a week. W'e took it. In looking back over our stay on the llorder this last hike will always remain the most prominent thing in the memory of our Border service. It lasted eight days. All the troops of liagle Pass, ten thousand in number, participated in the meneuvers. Battles were fought every day, in addition to our scheduled length of march, usually from fifteen to twenty miles. At last it was over. Our ,liorder service we knew was ended when, upon returning to liagle Pass, we saw our fifty Pullman cars waiting for us. On October 17th we left our camp site, preceded by the Thirtieth - ' -g X fl rf? ' L E , M . llll - Ti U . .

Our last farewells we1'e given and we pulled out, amid the cheers of the First Tennessee, for dear old Maryland. NVe will not dwell upon our trip home. VVe were far too glad to be coming home to pay much attention to the details of the trip. After eight days of riding we heard the word Baltimore l and our journey was ended. Baltimore greeted us royally, but we we1'e seasoned veterans UD and acted as reserved as possible. NVithin ten days the magic words, You are hereby released from the service of the National Guard and of the United States, ended our Border service. Then it was farewell to our captain-a man who helped to make our Border service as attractive as possible, a man with the biggest heart in the service- Capt. Samuel B. Riggs. We of St. .Iohn's who served under him will always remember him as OUR captain. VVe thank him for all that he taught us, and for all that we learned under him, and hope that if ever we are called out again, it will be under his guidance.

MESS LINE started on our journey to NVashington, from which place we were to go to our destination. Everyone was happy going over on the train. Who would not be, when all class work was Finished and a pleasant weelc's encampment in the open lay before us? Arriving in VVashington, the battalion was formed in line to await the cars which were to take us. to Arlington. In a few minutes they came and we boarded them. We left the cars at Fort Myer and marched to our selected camp site. Tents and furnishings for the camp were furnished us by the cavalry stationed there, and under the direction of Lieutenant McNeill and two watchful regulars our company streets shortly presented a tidy appearance. Putting up the mess tents and digging drainage ditches occupied the remainder of the day.

But alas, how we were mistaken! Shortly after taps had sounded and all had become quiet through the battalion a violent thunder storm broke over the camp. The rain came down in torrents. It seemed as if the heavens had broken loose and poured all the stored-up water in the world upon us. The little insignihcant ditches that we had made around the tents proved inade- quate for the occasion, and we were promptly Hooded. To add to our discom- iiture, the rain gave way to hail and the tents gave 'way, with the result that we appeared to be inside a sieve. Not a dry spot was to he found anywhere. No matter where one turned, a little stream of water from the leaking tent invariably sought him out.

Of course, it went awkward, but in an hour or so we got the hang of it and things went better. The day following we performed at a trot, and the next day at the gallop. Our time in between drills was spent in touring the country adjacent to the fort. Wasliington proved to be the great attraction, some of us getting back in camp in time for reveille. Camp was broken june 19th, and the battalion set out for home. But instead of riding into VVashington, we hiked it, whence we took the train to Annapolis and St. .Iohn's. Our camp at Fort Myer is now nothing but a memory. W'e shall remember it as a very pleasant one, and hope that we may enjoy all our future outings as much as Fort Myer.

The first play given was a three-act comedy, Fun In a Flat , and was a howling success. liveryone in the cast played their parts particularly well. Besides the cadets who exhibited their histrionic ability, four young ladies from Annapolis ably assisted, and had it not been for them, our tirst endeavor in the iield of dramatics would have been a failure. Misses Edith Woodward, Marie Brooke, Margaret Claude, Julia Douw, and with Mrs. L. T. Downes, who assisted Prof. Handy in coaching the young actors and actresses, were unani- mously elected honorary members of the Dramatic Club. These ladies worked willingly and unceasingly to make Fun In a Flat the success that it Was. This year, the Dramatic Club with the Orchestra and Glee Club presented a Christmas Farce before the holidays which was very successful.

JOHN'S, 05 GEORGE WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY, 6 On October 7th St. -john's lost the initial game of the season in the last two minutes of play to G. XV. U. on our field. The character of the game was not indicated by the score, for it was slow. St. john's made thirteen lirst downs and G. XV. U. one. The lirst three quarters were replete with fumbles on both sides, St. 'Iohn's being on the aggressive throughout. The fourth quarter was a battle from start to tinish. Forward passes, end runs, line plunges and trick plays were tried by both sides, but in vain, until the last two ill-fated minutes for St. -lohn's, when George XVashington completed a long forward pass and carried the ball over the line for the only score of the game. Pepper of George Wfashington stood head and shoulders above the rest of his team.

St. Mary's and liuker carried it back Fifteen yards. St. john's held, and Euker punted on the fourth down to Darley, who was downed in his tracks. On line plays St. John's planted the ball on Mt. St. Mary's fifteen-yard line. At this point, however, when St. -lohn's had just made first down in two plays and in two more plays had made seven more, the ball was given to Mt. St. Mary's on downs, due to the fact that Mr. Sayler had not seen that St. John's had made hrst down, the lines having been moved by the head linesman. Mt. St. Mary's then kept the ball out of the danger zone for the rest of the half. In the fourth quarter Mt. St. Mary's carried the ball down the Held to St. AIohn's five-yard line. St. John's held, and on fourth down Mt. St. Mary's fumbled, but recovered the ball, making it first down. On a neatly- mapped-out crossbuck Mt. St. Mary's scored, but failed to kick goal. Plasnig and Andrew starred for St. john's, while Rogers and liuker starred for Mt. St. Mary's. . ST. JOHN'S, 0g P. M. C., 6 For the third time, St. John's lost by one touchdown. This time P. M. C. was the victor by blocking and recovering a punt behind our goal line in the first quarter. The rest of the game was decidedly in St. -Iohn's favor, as we made twenty-four first downs to P. M. C.'s sixteen, but each time we were within striking distance the fatal punch was not delivered.

The feature was a long forward pass by Weaver to Noble, which gave St. John's fifty yards. lllasnig was the star of the contest, carrying the ball around the end or through the line whenever called upon. Darley and Cook also did good work. ST. JOHN'S, Og WASHINGTON, 0 After a very tiresome trip of six hours St. .lohn's encountered W'ashington at Chestertown and played them to a standstill. During the First half the ball kept close to the middle of the field. One dropkick was tried by VVashington, but it was a failure. In the quarter Washington worked the ball to St. John's fifteen-yard line, only to be held for downs. Then it was that St. John's started their march toward VV. C.'s goal. With the ball on W. C.'s half-yard line a score seemed certain, but by hard luck Plasnig fumbled and VVashington , . , i 534 ,. X- . 15 ? Zi ,t ff LZ il' 11 fr Ni 0 Fi Q. P1 T JL lkw 9 D1 5. V. ., X, v AC.

They kicked to their thirty-five yard line, and from there Jarman tried a dropkick, but it failed. Neither side got within striking distance in the third period. Near the end of the game Brown tried a dropkick from near the middle of the held, but Coyner, for St. John's, blocked it, and St. John's recovered. After a few rushes the game ended with the ball in St. john's possession on VV. C.'s thirty-yard line. Jarman, Darley, Andrew and Collinson played excellent ball for St. john's, while W. Wallace, Frampton and Brown played best for VVashington. W. C. made four first downs and St. John's made fifteen. ST. JOHN'S, 6g M. S. C., 31 Maryland State College scored the greatest number of points in the history of our football relations when she defeated us thirty-one to six. M. S. C. kicked off. St. John's was unable to gain, and Andrew kicked to Smith. From this point M. S. C. started a steady march to the goal line, but failed on the kick-out. M. S. C. again kicked off and St. -Iohn's was again unable to gain. It looked as though it would be another touchdown for them, but our team held like a wall on our five-yard line. By the ball being carried alternately by our backheld, it was placed within a few yards of the goal-line. Here State held twice, but on the next attempt Heise carried the ball across for our first score. In the second quarter, State scored two touchdowns by the good work of Brewer and Fletcher. The third quarter did not register points for either side, St. John's being on the aggressive throughout.

At this point the play became very rough, and Oberlin, State's tackle was put out of the game. The game ended with the ball in St. john's possession and in her own territory. Maryland State's line did great work for them, while our backtield starred for us. ST. JOHN'S, 03 DELAWARE, 14 XVC again lost a close battle when we encountered the Delaware eleven on their gridiron. All during the tirst quarter the hall see-sawed back and forth near the middle of the lield, neither side having the advantage. This lasted until the last of the second quarter when Delaware started a series of rushes and carried the ball to St. .lohn's lifteen-yard line, where the timer's whistle ended the half. ln the third period, St. 'lohn's carried the ball in Delaware's territory, but were held and Heise attempted drop-kick but failed. At the last of this quarter Delaware scored on a low-pass to Wfcldin who dodged several men for a run of twenty yards. Delaware regained the ball when Selby intercepted a pass from Jarman. On the next play, a forward pass, XVeldin to Clancy, was successful and Clancy scored. Jarman and Darley played good ball for St. -lohn's, while NVeldin and Clancy played best for Delaware. 199 5 K A .4 ,,,, ..' ,,,Z,,, 4 ,,, 1 xv XVOKVONI xx xv sv :V xv xv sg: xv sf xg, xv xy sv xv sv xp xy: sy: :yi sf Lv: Lv: lv: Lv: 9l6.f:'i'.'fu'.7'n fn nx'.7f'1.7F.f'R.fR.'ni'75.f'u.9'fAT9?n'97i'9 s fn'9's fF5'. a'9'x 1A'9'x fl'9't fR97u4'.n.9fis9'l 9fi.9,i.9.i.9,i. 51 7: i El HM -- 1 fe L' li E-1 34 xx fi. . , 'Hi E+- ik' EEO? 31 iff 5, it rlw+r.1f:.:'?lE 0 -P05150 51501661609l2+?Zi0?lE'?li+?!?'?li0?li4?li0 0916 ST. JOHN'S, 174 WESTERN MARYLAND, 7 St. John's scored its first victory of the season on Saturday, November 18, when W1 M. C. was played on Vtfoodward Field. After kicking off to VVestern Maryland, St. -Iohn's held and forced them to punt, a fumble caused St. John's to lose the ball, but they held again and XVestern Maryland punted outside. By two well executed forward passes S. J. C. placed the ball on W. M. C's Fifteen- yard line. Here we were penalized fifteen yards for holding. Heise dropped back to the thirty-two yard line and dropped one over for three points. In the second quarter S. J. C. recovered a fumbled punt and with a twenty-yard run by Clark placed the ball within striking distance of W. M. C.'s goal. Plasnig made several yards through tackle, and Clark took the ball over. Heise kicked goal. Western Maryland made their only score in the second quarter with but a few seconds to play by two long forward passes, Keller to Miles, and Keller to Meyers from the forth-yard line. Keller kicked a difficult goal. In the third quarter Western Maryland was penalized fifteen yards for holding. Keller kicked to Clark who was downed in his tracks. From kick formation Clark ran seventy-eight yards for a touchdown. Heise kicked goal. W. M. C. planted the ball on St. John's thirteen-yard line in the fourth quarter, but as S. J. C. held, Keller tried a drop kick which went astray. The game ended soon after this with the ball in our possession in midfield. Garret and Keller played fine ball for VVestern Maryland, while Turner, Collinson, Lentz, Coyner, Clark, Heise and Jarman played well for St. John's. Clark and Lentz especially played brilliantly. 200 I is Ziff A1114 ,,,, Z ..'1,,,M,,,fW 4 ,,,Zm,,Z,,,W I ST. JOHN'S, 65 JOHNS HOPKINS, 3 Although defeated before they went on the field according to dope, St. john's won from Hopkins hy that never-say-die-spirit for which the old insti- tution is noted. St. john's received the kick-off and advanced the bail to Hop- kins' forty-live yard line, where Hopkins held. Clark kicked and Leadbetter's return was ten yards short. Clark, jarman and Plasnig advanced the hall to the ten-yard line where a fumble gave Hopkins the hall and they immediately punted out of danger. In the second quarter St. John's brought the ball back to the thirty-yarcl line, where Hopkins held and from this point their heavy line began a steady march down the lield to our twenty-live-yard line. Here the St. ,lohn's spirit showed itself by our line holding for three clowns against their mass of flesh, which saved a touchdown. On the next play, Hoffman dropped back to our thirty-live yard line and booted the hall over the bar for the hrst score of the game. Hopkins kicked off to Plasnig who ran the hall hack to our forty-yard line. Here Hopkins held again and Clark punted to Purcell, who fumbled and after several attempts at recovering the ball, Lentz, our tackle, finally captured it against the fence. 'l'his inspired the team more than ever and the St. john's stands went wild when a few moments later a forward pass from Clark to Bowers gave us twenty yards. Carey jarman's head at this point, aided by our do-or-die line and fast hacklield, instigated the greatest accomplishment of our seasons-a touchdown. On every play he was out-guessing Hopkins, until after a well mixed series of end runs and line plunges, the hall was placed on their one- yard line and carried across by Jarman himself on the next play.

In the Grst place, T St.'John's, although victor in but half the games, defeated nearly all her stronger rivals. Tucker and Lowe started the season as the main pitchers of the squad. However, Loweys arm went before he could show 'ii 'l::':'l ' ' T his ability, and upon Tucker then fell most of the work of the season. This sturdy pitcher again defeated Maryland State College twice, and for the first time in eight years, due mainly to his superb pitch- ing, St. John's was able to defeat johns Hopkins University. In the annual game with the U. S. Naval Academy, Lowe, although his arm was still in bad condition, held the strong Navy hitters scoreless with the exception of one inning. Freeny, Jarman, Heise and Lowman formed a stonewall inheld. They did not have to bow to any inlield in the State. All of them played faultlessly in the field and were among the strongest hitters of the State. The outheld must not be overlooked. Stromeyer, Polk and Elzey formed a trio hard to beat. They were constantly on the alert and helped St. John's win more than once. Lastly, but not least, St. john's was blessed in having a good catcher. Most of Maryland's Col- lege teams have good iniielcls, but good catchers are few and far between. Bur- gess, by his untiring work and cheerful disposition back of the plate, did as much if not more than any other man to glorify St. john's. The utility jobs were cred- itably filled by lfVeaver, Hartsock, McComas and Noble. St. john's cannot give too much credit to our coach, John N. VVilson, for his untiring work in the devel- opment and betterment of the team. In conclusion, we may say again that our season was successful and that it promised much for the future season. 205 BASEBALL TEAM, 1916 ST. JOHN'S, 23 ROCK HILL, 1 In the initial game of the season St. ,Iohn's won from Rock Hill at Ellicott City. The game was closely contested throughout and there was no scoring until the sixth inning. Both Schmidiger, of Rock Hill, and Tucker, of St. John's, pitched superb hall, each allowing few hits. MOUNT ST. MARY'S, 155 ST. JOHN'S, 14 Mount St. Mary's won from St. john's at Annapolis in a closely contested game by the score of iifteen to fourteen. lfrrors were numerous and the fact that it was early in the season could easily be realized. Rice's batting featured for the Mountaineers, while Freeny's home run in the Iirst inning and Tucker's batting throughout the game were the bright spots for St. John's. - A ST. JOHN'S, 83 GALLAUDET, 3 St. john's defeated Gallaudet in a well played game at Washington by the score of eight to three. The Gallaudet pitchers were wild, giving nine free passes to Hrst. Tucker, of St. john's, allowed Gallaudet but six hits. The hitting and fielding of Freeny and Jarman for St. -Iohn's featured the game. ' MOUNT ST. JOSEPI-PS, 45 ST. JOHN'S, 3 St. john's met defeat at the hands of Mount St. Joseplfs in a good game .at Annapolis. Lowe started pitching for St. j'ohn's and allowed but one hit in live innings, when he was forced to leave the game on account of a sore arm. Tucker succeeded him and pitched good ball, but received poor support. The batting and fielding of Nolan featured for the Josephites, while the fielding of Freeny, Heise and Jarman did credit to St. john's. ST. JOHN'S, 145 MARYLAND STATE, 4 St. John's won from her old rival in a loosely-played game at College Park, the score being I4-4. Tucker pitched for St. john's and held the Farmers at his mercy throughout, allowing only six hits. The State pitchers were wild, and walked eight men. Knode's lielding featured for State, while the batting of Freeny and Tucker did likewise for St. John's. 1150 915051505159 515i E15 0515 0 E15 4 51505150 9195156154 +?154?15051'5'?150515 0?15'4?150?154515 615 0 ?15 OE? 0 51 49l5991505i50515 3 ,, 215+ r fi. .. ,,. iii i - if -- I ' h.: 71? cf f' ' 'Q' 1 - -. -6 - 1 '- -- ' ' ii 1 ,. 1. 1 'S '- P' 1. .

Tucker held them well in check throughout the game while our wrecking crew was piling up runs on McHugh and Gleason. I-Ieise and Freeny starred for St. Johns MOUNT ST. JOSEPH'S, 85 ST. JOHN'S, 4 In the second game of the season with the josephitcs the Cadets were defeated in a well-played game. Herbert started on the mound for Mt. St. joseplfs, but was forced to retire, and was succeeded by Kittle, who pitched superb ball. Freeny's batting again featured the game. ST. JOHN'S, 85 DELAWARE COLLEGE, 6 Delaware College met defeat at the hands of St. john's at Newark by the score of S-6. 'l'l1e game was slow, due mostly to errors, Delaware having six to her credit. Doherty's and O'Daniell's batting featured for Delaware, while Lowe, both in the box and at the bat, won the game. Although touched for ten hits, he kept them scattered, and was given good support. ROCK HILL, 95 ST. JOHN'S, 8 In the second game of the season with Rock Hill we met defeat. St. John's made many errors, which always resulted in runs. Schmidiger pitched good ball for Rock Hill, while Hartsock of St. John's deserved by his pitching to win his game. lilzey, Freeny and Burgess featured at the bat. WASHINGTON COLLEGE, 53 ST. JOHN'S, 0 Due to the superb pitching of linright, St. john's met her first shutout of the season at Chestertown. The game was fast and interesting, linright allowing but four hits. ln the sixth St. -lohn's gave XVashington the scare of the game by getting two singles, a walk and a passed ball, all in succession. However, the next man drove one right into linright, who, unable to get out of the way, caught it. Freeny and Heise played best for St. jolm's.

Lowe pitched line ball, and with the exception of the fourth inning neither team was able to score. St. j'ohn's surprised Navy by making two double plays in the first three innings. I-Iad I..owe's arm been in good condition, things might have been different. XVilson relieved him in the eighth and fanned two of the next three batters. Mclfall of Navy pitched good ball, allowing but six hits. In the infield, Calhoun and Rodgers played best for Navy, while the fielding of Ifreeny and Jarman featured 'for St. john's. ST. JOHN'S, 2g JOHNS HOPKINS, 1 In a superb pitcher's battle, Tucker proved superior to Pythian of Hopkins, and our old rivals went down to defeat by the score of 2-I. 'llhe game was well played throughout, each pitcher allowing but three hits. lfreeny, Heise and Jarman starred in fielding, while l'flzey's hit in the second inning scored the winning run. College baseball rarely produces the caliber of ball played at Homewood in this game. ST. JOHN'S, 95 MARYLAND STATE, 4 In the second game of the season, St. john's again defeated Stale College. State's pitchers were again wild, four being used during the game. Tucker pitched fine ball, keeping his hits well scattered, while the rest of the team opened up on State with the heavy artillery. Knode again played best for State, while Burgess, l'olk, Ifreeny and Heise were our bright lights. WESTERN MARYLAND, 35 ST. JOHN'S, 2 For the first time in a number of years Wfestern Maryland defeated St. .Iohn's in a close, well-played game. lloth pitchers were at, their best, and few hits were made. The fielding of this game was unusually good. Myers starred for the Methodists, while 'l'ucker's pitching and l7reeny's and .Iarman's batting were in the limelight for S. .l. C. WASHINGTON COLLEGE, 9g ST. JOHN'S, 0 Again linright proved too much for us, and the last game of the season was lost. linright allowed but one hit, while Tucker allowed but three. .larman's lielding stood out prominently during the game. 314o5:so51sv?I2v.-Ze'FF0?Z6vfI+v1160550HE01!6v1i:0+l4f5I:'?Z4f?Zif OEISOGIEQEISHQQEXQQEZEQEIE0EIivE!60?if4?IfH40 -If ' o 'f ,ii IK' 1154. tiny 4-L+: Q 04:1 Q 1:1 T164 Qi Cr 6 . , H50- ' 171 ff 1160- ,T E+' X150- zfz Q M1 M + Q ,S is 'E' Q 2150- 0550554521 0030150421 :Z6+9E+5l'5+?lE+ 0 515'EIS61203160EE05l6f?l?0?IS0?ZE+?lS0?l?'?l5+ OGIEOEISOEEO EE EIS OEIS 4415 0215626 61505140 HE 4915 209 bs. Efvnniz The tennis season of IQI6, while comparative scores may not show it, was successful in more ways than one. Our schedule comprised a great many teams that had never before been en- tertained in Annapolis by us. Man- ager Bielaski had arranged a series of ten matches, more than had ever been played before, but due to the weather several of these were can- celed. The principal teams that we met were George Washington Univer- sity, Fordham, Trinity, Georgetown and Navy. As a whole, the squad was very good, and there was always doubt who would play, with the exception of Captain Fell and Downs, who were the mainstays, but Bielnski and Price played the whole season. Downs and Bielaski were lost by graduation, but the following candidates, viz., Metz- ger, Bowers, Harrison, Coughlan, Gardner, Plasnig and Cole, bid fair to place the team once more upon its feet. Manager Price has arranged an excellent schedule, and the members of the team, we feel sure, will do all in their power to rellect credit upon themselves and the College.

V Our basket-ball season was a success, our team ranking second among the State colleges for the State championship, being defeated by only one State team. Captain Jarman and Andrew were the mainstays on the odiense and defense. ST. JOHN'S, 313 ALUMNI, 11 St. John's opened her season with her Alumni, and captured it by the one- sided score, 31-II. Lack of training on the part of the Alumni was the main cause of the large score, for they held their own during the tirst half, though time was taken out quite frequently for them. The team played a :fairly good game, considering it was the initial one. Jarman, Freeny and Cook played well for S. C., while VVilson and Thompson starred for the Alumni. ST. JOHN'S, 165 NAVY, 26 St. John's started off like a whirlwind, caging two goals before Navy made an attempt at their basket. However, this was not to continue, for Von Heim- burg caged one for Navy's tirst score. Jarman shot a foul, making the score 5-2, in our favor. Navy again put on an extra spurt by running the score to 16, while we were only 7, and the half ended. In the second half it was a race be- tween Calhoun and Jarman, as they scored all of the points with the exception of a Field goal by Byers. Our team did well, considering it was the lirst real contest of the season. Captain Calhoun, for the Navy, and Captain Jarman, for St. John's, were the stars, each scoring I2 points. ST. JOHN'S, 215 GALLAUDET, 19 By a close margin, St. John's missed defeat at the hands of the mutes of 'lVashington. Though the score was close throughout, the game was slow and marked by much poor playing on both sides. Gallaudet got a three-point start, but held it for only a few minutes, when St. John's caged two field goals, and they were unable to overcome this lead. Jarman and Freeny played best for St. John's, while Bouchard and NVillman played well for Gallaudet. ST. JOHN'S, 355 MOUNT ST. JOSEPH'S, 19 St. John's moved up its first peg in the State championship by defeating Mt. St. Joseph's in a very rough game at Irvington. The First half was nip and tuck. for with three minutes to play the score was 9-9, but during this time Freeiny and Jarman made goals in rapid succession. The second half was very similar to the first by starting out with both scores keeping very close together. 213 gi? I .... ...,, .... , v,f,...W .,... .7 ,..7 ..... .7 X'Vith six minutes left to play and the score 26-19, Captain Jarman called time out. From this time on the game was all St. John's, as Mt. St. Joseph's was unable to score, and our team added nine points. Our whole team played basket- ball of high caliber. X'Vl1ile the forwards, Jarman and Cook, and center, Freeny, were the scoring stars, they were continually fed hy the guards, Andrew and Lentz. Hart starred for Mt. St. Joscph's. ST. JOHN'S, 153 UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA, 29 After a tiresome trip, St. Jolm's was defeated for the second time of the season. The first half was marked by close guarding, ending S-7, in favor of Virginia. The second half was all Rixey's. U. of Va.'s giant center was all over the floor, and could not be stopped. In the last few minutes he shot six goals, which put the game on ice. ST. JOHN'S, 255 STAUNTON, 18 The second game of the Virginia trip was played at Staunton Military Academy on the following day. Staunton played a clever game during the hrst half, and held our team to a I0-Q score, but the second half found all of our regulars in the lineup, and the game was made sure for St. John's. Captain Jarman starred for St. John's, while Cohy was the shining light for Staunton. Lieutenant and Mrs. Iglehart met the team at the station, and gave them II dinner and reception after the game. Lieutenant Iglehart is an alumnus and a former commandant of St. Jolm's. The SL John's spirit is as evident to him now as it has ever been. ST. JOHN'S, 31g ST. JOHN'S OF BROOKLYN, 24 The game started like a house afire, and Brooklyn scored four points before Jarman made a free shot for our first score. All through the first half it was a see-saw affair, which ended with our team in the lead by two points. The second half was not- so close, though there was no time for loafing on either team. Jarman again was in the limelight, caging five from the floor and seven out of nine from the foul line. ST. JOI-IN'S, 315 ROCK HILL, 14 Rock Hill was defeated by St. John's on the latter's court, 31-I4. St. John's led all the way, and the winner was never in doubt. Most of Rock Hill's points were made through long field goals. Jarman played best for St. John's, while Barella did the best work for Rock Hill. ST. JOI'IN'S, 44, MOUNT ST. JOSEPI'I'S, 16 St. J'ohn's showed splendid teamwork when she defeated Mt. St. Joseph's, 44-16, on the former's court. Freeny and Jarman starred for St. Jolm's, the former getting nine field goals. Hart played best for Mt. St. Joseph's. ST. JOI-IN'S, 613 JOHNS HOPKINS, 2 St. John's defeated and outclassed her old rival, Johns Hopkins, by a 61-2 score of the former's court. The visitors had a hard time to even get their hands on the ball, as our teamwork was so good. Jarman brought the spectators to their feet many times, by his speedy and sensational dribbling. The whole St. Iohn's team played well, while XVoodland played best for Hopkins. 214 M ,,,, ,,,, ST. JOHN'S, 34, WASHINGTON, 15 St. John's outplayed Washington on the former's court and won, 34-I5. The work of the St. John's guards, especially Andrew, was of the highest order. Jarman and Cook played their usual strong game. Brown did the best work for Washington. ST. JOHN'S, 153 DELAWARE, 28 Unaccustomed to a small floor, St. John's was defeated by Delaware, 28-15. Jarman and Freeny played best for St. John's, while Horsey, Clancy and Pierson starred for Delaware. ST. JOHN'S, 229 P. M. C., 13 P. M. C. was defeated by St. John's on the former's floor, 22-13. The work of Captain Jarman and Freeny for St. J0hn's was of high order. Peters and Compuzano played best for P. M. C. ST. JOHN'S, 235 WASHINGTON, 28 St. John's lost her iirst State game when she was defeated by VN-'ashington at Chestertown, 28-23. With Andrew, our star guard, out of the game on account of sickness, we could not put our strongest team on the floor. However.. the game was thrilling throughout. Jarman and Cook played best for St. John's, and Cain and Caldwell for NVashington. ST. JOHN'S, 173 WASHINGTON, 20 St. John's and Washington being tied for the State championship, it was agreed that the deciding game should be played on the Central Y. M. C. A. court, in Baltimore. Our team did not play in its usual form, while NVashington played a fast game, with good teamwork. The guarding on both sides was of high order, and few field goals were made. The game was interesting through- out, each team being in the lead several times. Washington did some good team'- work in the last few minutes of play, when they kept the ball away from St. John's and played for time. Jarman, Cook and Andrew played best for St. John's, while Caldwell and Cain starred for Washington. Washington's victory gave them the clear title of State Champions. ssfeaeleezw l9H9?E' W?E'H99K'9E'H?929HQ6Kfl9 5s is sk i 5, i t . ., ,E , ,N . as .i .f ww QQ swf ff+C t .,-+--.. + Ei 2. sf 3. 9 E6 ? 215 W 9---41 fl x K X ' . tn?

VVith very poor prospects for a standard season, Fields, the mainstays of the previous year, took big job of keeping St. John's in the running material. However, this they did well, for, untiring efforts, which were bacl-:ed by all can possess, they succeeded in making this among our athletics than it has for many On the lst of April our team met Navy in a handicap dual meet on their lield. Handicaps were given to both teams, and, though Navy won by a large Illilfgill-48-24-Olll' team was not at all discouraged, for from the new men several appeared to be future winners. Holmes and A. H. Noble were our chief point-winners, the former winning the 440 and SSO-yard runs, while the latter came in second in the ICO-y3.l'Cl dash and third in the 880-yard run. On April 29th our relay team, composed of Captain Fields, Noble, Holmes and Cook, entered the Pennsylvania meet, and did well to capture even the fourth choice, as they were against seven exceptionally good teams. Our track and Held team on May 6th entered an open meet at Maryland State College and captured I7 points, Noble and Holmes again being the chief point-gainers, gathering 7 each. Cook and VVatson did well in the mile and shotput, respectively. At the time of writing little can be said concerning the prospects for the '17 season. Captain Noble nevertheless has a right to believe that it will be a success if the men continue to improve as they have since the opening of the season. cf 218 E '. - lil fdntrr-011211111 illlvri In the afternoon of May 2d, 1916, an Interclass Meet was held on Wood- ward Field with Professors Grove, Gray, Sturdy and Scarborough acting as judges. The event proved to be very interesting, and brought to light many track men of whom the coaches were ignorant. Great rivalry existed between the different classes, the members of each striving to cover their class with glory. Medals were given to the man of each class who made the highest number of points for his class. Holmes proved to be the greatest point-winner in the final reckoning, lead- ing all other contestants with a total of 18 points. Close behind came A. H. Noble, with a total of I4 points, more than half the number scored by his class. Fields of 1916 was third, with 8 points, and Cook was fourth, with a total of 6. SUMMARY IOO-YARD HURDLES A. H.

Never before does it seem that the weekly meetings have been more successful and interesting. ivimistei-S from Annapolis and prominent men from distant cities have contributed their best observations for our spiritual good. The unusual progress of the Y. M. C. A. made it possible this year to have the Con- ference of the Student Volunteer Movement at St. -lohn's.

CllAl l'ER I--Tun GENERAL NUISANCIE The hrst notes of fatigue inspection have hardly sounded before junior and Senior floors are treated by the sight of-----i--running up the steps to the third floor of Randall Hall. The call is scarcely finished before he knocks at the hrst door. Into the room he goes, carefully on the lookout for dirt. Be- ware, my comrades, if your electric light is not dusted, your washstan-'l cleaned, and your book shelf arranged just so you are sure to be soaked. just after break- fast, you can hear everybody tell everybody else to be sure that their room is clean, for Alexander Selkirk, is O. C. Alas! one poor Freshie forgot to see a broom straw that had fallen from his broom. The Monarch of Senior Floor dis- dainfully turns to the O. D. and reports him for dirty floor at fatigue inspection. No hope for you, Freshie, if you go to the ofhce to try to get the report off, you will fmcl that the Great Alexander has already ordered that you be placed before the Committee on Discipline for Gross Neglect of Duty. Here endeth the first lesson. CHAP'rni: II-Tun RAmA'1'oR FHQND Again, on another morning, we find the boys are very industriously placing the table and the chairs at the foot of the beds. VVhat is the cause? Apparently, there is only a superficial attempt to brush out the dirt. Ah! the cause now appears in the omng. Most peculiar is he indeed. Never have we, and never do we expect to see such a sight again. A monstrous head upon which no hat could ever fit comfortably. He shambles slowly on. With methodical tread he enters a room and starts for the innocent radiator. This time he halts in amazement. Quite impossible it seems to get past the remarkable barricade of cots, chairs, table and boys. Not in the least is he dauntedg every obstacle is he able to sur- mount. Forward he steps, upon the table he leaps, over it he climbs, to the radi- ator he goes. Shocked, astonished and dismayed is he, for every man has care- fully cleaned behind the steaming conductor of heat. Too bad, old man, they're on to you. No more should you put your hand into the corners that are diflicult to reach. Next time, try your hand at some other point. Perseverance deserves bette1' success, but always remember that they're on to you, and look not more in 243 5 W ff fa .,,, L 4 A odd corners for dirt. The old adage, Seek and you shall End holds good no longer, 'Fessor , because they're on to you. Here endeth the second lesson. CHAI-'VER III-Tun PorU1.An1'rv Pnsr Although these chapters are arranged in no particular order, it seems pecu- liarly appropriate to discuss the Popularity Pest next. Some men are horn to be popular, others possess the ability to make them- selves popular, still others try to make themselves popular and don't succeed. lt is such a character that we now bend our efforts towards. This particular person has by his efforts rendered himself very obnoxious to the Student Body. He tries to force himself into everything. His pride is due a mighty fall, indeed. Ah! Hem! Good morning, here he is taking up the daily inspection. Carefully he looks theroom over. As he leaves he says, Your room is in very good order . What is he doing? Nothing less than trying to make a good impression. Again he takes up an inspection during study-hour. He slides softly into your room, asks foolish question No. 999, Are you studying hard? Of course, every room has the same answer, Yes, Professor C U. What else could you expect? Is this a conscientious performance of duty? lVe do not think so. Still again at 10.30 P. M. he takes up another inspection. just cover up your head. He will come over and tuck the covers around you in much thc same manner that a mother fixes the bedclothes of a baby's crib. Is this his duty? Most emphatically we say, NO. What is it then? Surely nothing less than some more popularity soft-soap. His activities along this line have earned him the name of Conscientious --1---3 but has he gained any popularity by these acts? NO! Here endeth the third lesson. C1IAP'rlf:R IV-Tum M1DN1c:n'r PRowL15R The halls are quietg everybody is diligently at work preparing for the morrow I everybody but one. The Spirit of Spring is strong in his manly bosom. The desire for adventure is too great a temptation for him to resist. The soft balmy winds of the South seem to be calling him to greater activities. The call is irresistibleg he visits. Suddenly his face goes white with despair. Sounds are heard outside. The door is flung open. No longer is the professor's face sterng no longer is he dignified. Instead, his face is wreathed with smiles, and a loud tee-hee-hee, f caught you this time rings out. Again the Spirit of Spring is deeply rooted in one's breast. The fragrant air of the most glorious season of the year recalls past years. An intense longing that cannot be subdued takes possession of his soul. The Call of the Wild proves too much. Once again he is up and doing. Fitting tribute must he pay to the season 244 53 Q' 5. M 'F J 31111410111 AIU X 4 , ill!

The midnight prowler is doing 'his duty. Once more he sees a lightg once more he soaks the author of these noble words for lights after taps. Here endeth the fourth lesson.

Corporals reporting Senior Privates will be found guilty of gross disrespect to Section I of this order, and will be reduced to ranks for violation of the same. First Sergeants will hereafter stuff cotton in their ears to avoid hearing absentees from formations. All letters written or received by Freshmen must be censored by the Presi- dent of the G. O. H. before reaching their proper address. No commissioned officerwill rise before chapel call.

Someone thinks it's naughty, Another thinks it's wrong, All agree it's jolly NVithout its lasting long. A kiss is an insipid and tasteless morsel, which becomes delicious and delectable in proportion as it is flavored by love. The sweetest fruit on the tree of love, the oftener plucked, the more abundant it grows. A thing of no use to one, but much prized by two. The baby's right, the lover's privilege, the parent's benison and the hypocrite's mask. That which you can't give without taking, and can't take without giving. The food by which the flame of love is fed. The flag of truce in petty wars of courtship and marriage. The acme of agony to a bashful man. The only known smack that will calm a storm. A telegram to the heart, in which the operator uses the sound- ing system. Nothing divided between two. The only really agreeable two-faced action under the sun-or the moon either. The sweetest labial in the world's language. A woman's most effective argument, whether to cajole the heart of a father, control the humors of a husband or console the griefs of childhood. The thunder-clap of the lips which inevitably follows the lightning-glance of the eyes. l2verybody's acting edition of Romeo and Juliet. VVhat the child receives free, the young man steals and the old man buys. That in which two heads a1'e better than one.
