Piu e One HiirnhrJ Sixteen ORGfmiznTiom Page One lluiiJreJ Eighteen Young Men ' s Christian Association In every college, the life of the student should center round Christian Experience. The purpose of the Y. M. C. A. is to help each student cultivate this Christian life thru its social and devotional activities. In this manner, leadership is developed which results in broadening Christian influence in college life as well as in the world about us. Under the direction of our energetic president Ross Boner, the Y. M. C. A. has experienced one of the most successful years since its organizaton at Wesleyan. The devotional services, held on Thursda - evenings, have been of unusual value due to the high intellectual and spiritual plan of the services. The year of 1921-1922 was not devoid of mountain peak experiences. The as- sociation was brought in touch with post war conditions in Europe thru the interesting and instructive lectures of Drs. Richard Aspinall and S. K. Arbuthnot who were privileged to visit Europe during the summer of ' 21. Also the special meetings conducted by Bishop McConnell, which were of great value in upbuilding the spiritual life among the students. The visit of D. M. B. Fuller upon Feb. 9 the day of prayer for the colleges was a high inspiration to the spiritual life of the institution. Thru the efforts of the cabinet the Y. M. C. A. Hand Book was made possible. It was published and made ready for distribution to the incoming Freshman class. It contained information that was valuable to the new students as well as to the upper classmen. This year the Lecture Course was bigger and better than ever offered the col- lege before. The course consisted of eight numbers, among them were such inter- national attractions as John Kendricks Bangs, Dr. S. Parks Cadman, and Ida M. Tarbell. Due to the management of A. F. Shomo the financial success was marked, w ' hich makes possible the enlargement of the course next year. Officers Ross BoNAR President Orin D. Curtis lice President ThOS.

The Cabinet has ably cooperated in helping to make the organization a vital force in student life. The aim has been to strengthen the organization. The constitution has been re- vised and by means of a new budget system the organization has been put on a sound financial basis. Thus a wiser and more constructive policy for the conduct of the Y. W. has been developed. We were able to send our full quota of delegates to the State Cabinet conven- tion at Phillippi and we hope to send four representatives to the Summer Conference at Eaglesmere. All this added to the fact that the new cabinet is capable and enthusiastic, fore- tells that the year 1922-23 will be a year of brilliant accomplishments in the Y. W. C. A. of West Virginia Wesleyan. Officers 1921-22. Helen Sil.m.an President Inez Workman f ' ice President Berenice Wells Secretary Myrtis Dlffield Treasurer Committee Chairmen.

The aim of the Association is to deepen the spiritual lives of its members and to help equip them for the calling they have chosen. The meetings of the Organization are held once each month, at which time papers are read and helpful talks are given by prominent men. The follo wing men have addressed the Association this vear, Prof. L. H. Crisman. Dr. Wallace B. Fleming, Dr. G. D. Smith, Prof. Richard Aspinal, Dr. J. B. Vorkman, and Dr. H. D. Clark. On the second Sunday evening of each month the services at the First Methodist Episcopal Church of Buckhannon are held under the direction of the Association and one of its members delivers the sermon. This has been one of the most successful features of the work of the Asso- ciation and has had the decided approval of the people of Buckhannon. There perhaps falls upon no other organization in Wesleyan heavier responsi- bilities than those which fall upon this group. The manner in which the Associa- tion is conducted reveals the fact that the members appreciate these responsibilities. They are striving to prepare themselves in such a way, as will enable them to render the greatest service to their Great Leader and to their fellow-men. Officers Prof. Aaron H.

HoLLOWAV Membership Committee Joseph Babyak Winfield Patterson Enola Howett The VesIe an Debating Club, pioneer debating; club of Wesleyan, and winner of the Harding Cup, will soon complete one of the most successful years of its history. During the past year the club has risen to the highest pinnacle of debating attainment, due to the fact that the membership is a selected one, and from the best talent avail- able. The attainments of the club have also been due to the innate desire of each member to maintain the enviable record which the club has established. In social as well as forensic attainment the club stands in the forefront at Wes- leyan, for the annual banquets are looked forward to with joyful anticipation, and re- membered as landmarks in our college career. The third annu al banquet, held on January the thirteenth, proved to be the outstanding social event of the college year, with the possible exception of the Junior-Senior banquet. True to its standard of standing preeminently for all that is best for Wesleyan college, the club early in the year voted to admit members of the fair sex as active members. Almost immediately eight of the most accomplished young ladies of the college united with the club, and their presence has been an inspiration. Owing to the loss of three of the personnel of last year ' s Inter-Collegiate team by graduation it was deemed best not to engage in inter-collegiate debating this year. However, inter-club debates are being planned with the Webster Debating Club, and the Wesleyan Club will be well represented in these clashes. A number of our members will graduate in June and with them goes our sincere best wishes. We are confident that just over the hill success awaits them in their chosen fields of endeavor.

At the present date there is a membership of forty- seven. Early in the fall the young men decided that a valuable addition might be made to their already efficient and well organized body and as a result seven members of the fair sex were taken into the full and active membership. Not only has the Webster increased in size but in quality. It stands at the highest pinnacle of forensic attainment and has publically proved this fact by a unanimous victory over Wesleyan her sister debating club, in an inter-club debate that took place in the college auditorium on the morning of Jan. 21. Thanks to the victors — A. F. Shomo and M. L. Husted who upheld such a splendid offensive. On March ninth the Webster debating with its many guests met for a pleasant evening ' s entertainment at the clubs first Annual Banquet. The extreme success of the festic activity proved very promising for the future ears of the club. We wish to thank the debating seniors for their hearty participation in all the club activities. Viewing their future prospects we might say sail on nor fear to brest the sea, Our hearts our hopes are all with thee, Our hearts, our hopes, our prayers, our tears, our faith triumphant o ' er our fears, are all with thee, are all with thee.

An unusual large cast produced this triumph and all the difficulties incident on such a large number were bravely overcome. The finished production is one that the world will not willingly let die. Some of the fondest memories and reminiscences of college life twine about this old hall and some day it will be our proudest boast to say to our descendants I be- long to E.xcelsior — go thou and do likewise.

It furnishes an outlet for many forms of talent which might otherwise find no expression except for the existence of the two literary societies. Those mem- bers who possess sparks of genius in oratory, elocution, dramatics, debating, music, leadership and various forms of humor find in Chresto a place where such abilities are fostered and allowed to develop. Besides the luyal efforts of our scores of old members, this year we have had the advantage of over a hundred new members, all of them talented and willing workers. At no time during the year has Chresto spirit lagged. Ever - meeting has been well attended, in spite of other attractions which often existed on Saturday nights. This has no doubt been because Chrestomatheans are loyal to their society, and Chresto occupies first place with them on this night. Another explanation of the unflagging interest is to be found in the excellent programs which have been offered each week. According to the testimony of mem- bers of long standing the programs this year have on a whole surpassed those of many years. In addition to this triumph we feel justly proud of the success scored by the group of talented members who, early in February, presented Stop Thief — a most brilliant performance in every respect. Chresto ' s plans for the future are to hold what we have gained in our literary lealm, and to climb still higher, ever holding aloft the ideals of Chrestomatheanism as an incentive to literary achievement in Weslevan. Page One Hundred Thirtv-seven Page One Hundred Thirty-eight p. K. C. They say that misery loves compan and that birds of a feather flock to- gether acting on these principles, we the preachers kids of Wesleyan, drawn together by the ties of sympathy and the bonds of suffering, conceived the idea of forming an organization for the purpose of candolence and reflection on our bitter lot. So we assembled ourselves together in solemn conclave and formed the il- lustrious society- which we have designed to call the Preachers Kid Club . The officers elected at our first meeting were — Orin D. Curtis, President — Gladys Daw- son, Vice President — Gladys Beddow, Sec. and Treas. and Ruth Kemble, Historian. Since we have so much in common we have a very congenial group. The or- ganization is for social purposes. We hope that the P. K. C. will continue from year to year. Wesleyan may well be proud of such an organization. To the dignity, grace, and the goodness that every one expects from the sons and daughters of the marse, we have added our own brilliant achievements. We number among our group the most brilliant and profound intellectuals, glittering stars of the social world, musi- cians whose fame will eclipse that of Paderewski and the writers who will startle the world with literature. But modesty bids me say no more. Our careers speak for themselves. Surely we will reflect glory on old Wesleyan and the parsonage from which we came.

The Pharos, published bi-weeklj during the college ear hy the students, is one of the most valuable contributions to the student life of Wesleyan. All of the college news that is fit to print is found between its sheets, and original contributions from the leading literary students of the college are published in every issue. Through its columns the alumni are adequately enabled to keep in touch with the many activi- ties of their Alma Alater. New features have been added this year, such as the Jesters ' Colyum and the Ramblings . The contributions of the athletic editor this year have been largely responsible for the exceeding popularity of the paper among the students; the athletic news being of an unusually high character. In general The Pharos of ' 22 has been of a higher calibre than ever before, due to the excellent cooperation of the staf . Wesleyan ' s most notable achievement, is the verdict of a leading alumnus of Wesleyan. Those who have enjoyed reading its columns will agree that it has merited this commendation.

We wish to extend thanks to all who have assisted in the compiling of this book : to all the members of the Staff : to all who have assisted us with their advertise- ments: and especially to Miss Jo MacAvoy for her untiring efforts, and the use of her Studio and work rooms where the engraving copy was prepared, and the book Edited.

Page One Hundred Forty-three Page One Hundred Forty-four Page One Hundred Forty-five Benzene Ring The Benzene Ring was not the result of spontaneous combustion, but was the outcome of much thought and planning on the part of Prof. Hyma and his class in quantitative analysis. The idea was weighed out carefully, on the analytical balance and compounded to an exact formula Viz: — Work -j- Loyalty = Good Society -|- Success The experiment was then carefully heeded. Vigorous action began at once. As reactions depend largely on the catalytic agents used, the now bubbling Society elected Floyd Bonar as President, Torlock Rasmussen Vice President, and Nelle McLaughlin as Secretary and Treasurer. These catalytic agents reacted so rapidly and effectively, that by the second semester a Chemistry Library was on the way to formation, with by products of interest, pep and fun. At the beginning of the second Semester, due only to custom, new catalytic agents were used, namely Nelle McLaughlin, President, Ruhl Custer, ice President, Willa Latham, Secretary, Katherine Hart, Treasurer. The entrance re- quirements are merely that those desiring admittance, are willing to work for the So- ciety and that they be in the second year of Chemistry. New elements are introduced in the Chemistry Society with much pomp and ceremony, and many harrowing experiences behind closed doors. Bi-Monthly Meetings are held at which interesting Lectures by men prominent in the Scientific World are given to the public. Oh, we are an active effervescing bunch.

On this Board the Tru stees will be represented by having one of their number who is a graduate of the school. In the same way the Faculty will be represented. Then the students will have two repre- sentatives, as perspective Alumni. In accordance with this plan. Rev. Roy McCuskey, the President of the Alumni Association, appointed the following members of the Board. Mr. Clyde O. Law, of the Class of 1909, Wheeling, W. Va. ; Dr. Jesse F. Williams, of the Class of 1904, Clarksburg, W. Va. ; Prof. O. E. Karickhoff, of the Class of 1905, Buckhannon, W. Va.; Hal F. Alorris of the Class of 1906, of Charleston, W. Va. It is altogether probable that the other chief centers and population in this state will be represented on this Alumni Board. But it was thought that the present mem- bership would be sufficient for the planning of the work of next year, and that the full number desired could be elected at the Annual Meeting, of the Alumni Associa- tion held at Commencement time. The students were authorized to nominate their own representatives on this Board and they chose Mr. Paul Forman, of the class of 1922. and Mr. Cecil B. Ross of the Class of 1923. The members of the new Board met prompth- and elected their own officers, Clyde O. Law being elected President, and Dr. Jesse F. Williams, Secretary-Treasurer. Local Chapters of the Wesleyan Alumni have been organized in a number of the sections of the State, and these have pledged heart ' support of the plan. With R. W. Shumaker of the Class of 1917, as permanent Alumni Secretary, and Graduate Manager in Athletics, and with such an Alumni Athletic Board or- ganized, and with Kelcel Ross of the Class of 1920 as Professor of Physical Educa- tion for men, and with Bob Higgins as Foot Ball Coach, the Athletic outlook at Wes- leyan was never brighter.

The fact that the scores are marked up on the wrong side of the slate is no fault of the players or of the coaches who di- | rected the team. Due to the heavy schedule se eral valuable men were severely in_ ured and were unable to play in later games, this weakened the team to a great extent. 11 While the season does not seem to be a success in reality it was. We are now on a sound basis financialh ' and the material we had this year has been developed to a great extent, and will be able to start right in under the tutoring of BOB HIG- GINS next year.

In all these games Wesleyan superiority was shown in the fact that they led in the scoring until the second half, when the wear of the trip and games began to show on them. In a game played on the eve of the ninth annual High School Tournament WES- LEYAN won the undisputed CHAMPIONSHIP of WEST VIRGINIA by de- feating the strong West Virginia State Quintet by the score of 30 to 27 in one of the most thrilling games ever staged in the large Wesleyan Gym.

While not annexing the State Championship which Wesleyan had held ever since 1916 — the season was one which the school could be justh ' proud. Wesleyan played a series of games with Bethany — - Moundsville Collegians — Fairmont Normal — Morris Harvey — Salem College — - West Union Independents — Wanesburg College — Glenville Normal. Out of sixteen games played of this number only four were lost, a very creditable record for any school. The personnel of the team was: Infield — Beech Dunn, Jimmie Johnson, John Knight, Cebe Ross, Mahre Stark (Capt.). Outfield: Bill Dunn, Lorentz and Young. Wesleyan was exceedingly thankful in having Ken Ash, Lefty Lewes and Curtis as the pitching staff. Page One Hundred Sixty-t o Page One Hundred Sixty-three The 1922 Tournament The 1922 tournament, known as the Ninth Annual High School Basket Ball Tournament of West Virginia, was heralded weeks before it happened as the best tournament in the history of state high school basket ball, and at its close was pro- claimed unanimously the best floor entertainment yet held with state high school fives competing for championship honors. The 1922 Tournament was a new departure from the past annual tourne -s in that the endurance trials in the elimination games were reduced to a sensible mini- mum. Thirty-two teams, held by twenty-five leading state athletic authorities to be the representative championship contenders in the state, met and played in a division classified for convenience as Division A. Thirty-two other teams with well matched rec- ords were selected and played in a division classified as Division B. While the winners of the Division A tournament became state champions and were awarded state champion- ship trophies, the winners in Division B were accorded similar honors and won several beautiful cups. Playing in a field filled with some of the snappiest organizations in the state, Buckhannon High School by defeating Parkersburg High School, Fairview High and Clendennin High, took the state title for the second consecutive time and became owners of the Silver Basket Ball, offered by The Reitz Jewelry Co., of Buckhannon as the state trophv. Through the hearty cooperation of the basket ball coaches of the state, the people of Buckhannon, and the untiring efforts of Director Abe Upton, his assistants Harold Cutright and William Ward, the Basket Ball Tournament, by far the biggest ath- letic event of its kind held in West Virginia, was this year crowned with success.

Paye One lliuiilred Srvcnty-fnur Seven P. M. By Buys Teets. There are twenty-four hours in every day. Somebody either invented or dis- covered this fact even before Noah ' s Ark landed on Ararat. Perhaps, at first glance the fact within itself is of insignificance, except for the mere assertion. To Tommy Doyle, a College man of Wythmore College, rated as a Sophomore, but in truth a four hour Freshman this fact meant much. Twenty-four hours, each one composed of but sixty fleeting minutes was too short a period for Tommy to crown the events of existence into. Tommy was the sort of chap whom companions call a good fellow, but whom more experienced men mark as a listless ne ' er-do-well. At Wythmore Doyle was a popular grid-iron artist. He had the uncanny ability to add five yards just when those five yards were needed most. His lucky toe often was successful in sending over the bar a drop kick for three points when scores were tied and the game nearly done. He had the unfortunate knack also of being able to flunk at examination time just when his Professors most wanted to see him make a pass- ing grade. When dinner parties, week end camping trips, nocturnal prowls or club dances interfered with Tommy Doyle ' s routine school work, Tommy promptly can- celled that source of worry least necessary to his existence. It so happened that usually the school work was least necessary, in Tommy ' s idea of his earthly welfare. The turning point in Tommy Doyle ' s career came in the form of a tragedy. Tommy had just started the regular evening jaunt down street with three companions on the habitual Coca Cola tour, which always ended up with a pie and ham sand- wich fete near midnight. A messenger boy found him and delivered a telegram. When the youth with a thousand wonderful flowry-beds-of-ease theories of life • opened and read the small yellow sheet, his face grew pale. A companion caught the telegram as it fell from qua ering hands, and sensed a catastrophe. Each, boylike, offered sympathy as best they knew how, after each in turn read the telegram. Tommy ' s father had been killed in an automobile accident, and his mother had wired her son to come home at once. Two years later Tommy Doyle was trying hard to make a success at selling life insurance. It was a last despairing effort at making good, after having tried to do everything from being a machinist helper to being private secretary to a Theater Manager. The last position Tommy managed miraculously to hold for four days. He had learned the insurance business in one afternoon and evening from an old ex- perienced field agent representing an old and well established firm. The education he received in this short time consisted of learning to interpret rate tables, how to fill in blank applications, how to approach prospects and how to forward the volume of business which would crown his efforts and swell his bank account by many thousands of dollars annually. After three months of brilliantly prophesied, but dismally result- ing success, Tomm - began to look for something else to do. Daily he sat in his rent ridden office, now a rendezvous for creditors, patiently scanning help want advertisements in daily papers. Well meaning friends sadly shook their heads, and marked Tommy Doyle as a young man who would not stick . Only two people in the world believed in Tommy. One of these was his mother, and the other was a fair creation of humanin-, whom Tommy always sent post cards to when away from home over the week end, or out of town for an evening. Page One Hundred Seventy-five Doyle was forced to action at last when the little home he and his mother were trying to hold became endangered. A new man had grown up in the place of the care free Tommy Doyle who idly had thrown away two years of college life at Wyth- more. Necessity demanded action, but Tommy seemed powerless. At last he saw in a want advertisement an opportunity. A well established firm wanted a young man, energetic and resourceful to manage one of its branch offices. Tommy applied for the position, received the appointment, but after three months was forced to give it up. with another stigma attached to his career. He was honest, tried hard, was popular, but could not deliver the goods demanded by his employers. Often a letter from an old friend brings a ray of sunshine into the darkest and bleakest day, warming up and giving life to dormant ambitions and transposing dis- pair into hope. Tommy received a letter of this sort from an old team mate, formerly a tackle on the Wythmore eleven. Leonard Bailes had often tore great gaps in op- posing lines, and had paved the way for Tommy Doyle to dash through with the ball for many spectacular gains. Doggedly fighting up on the line, few noticed Bailes, and unthinking Tommy failed often to recognize the work of Bailes as the foundation for his success as a foot ball player. Bailes was now coaching in a small college in the west, and making good. Bitterly Tommy Doyle measured himself with Bailes. Unconsciously he was jealous, and cursing the mythical Lady Luck, placed all blame at her feet. Eventually Doyle found the cause for his failures, and for Bailes ' success. He was as good a man as Bailes, but did not have the equipment to work with as did his college day companion. Acquaintances of Doyle ' s first missed him at the club where he was wont to spend evenings. Next a city bowling club missed, and hnallj- began to get along without Doyle ' s services. Some advanced the theory that Tommy was stricken with a love affair, while others simply explained that the boy was not to be depended upon in anything. Tommy was rapidly losing the respect of his well meaning home town friends. Today, in a large city in New Mexico one may find Tommy Doyle very busy sitting at a desk in the main office of a conveniently appointed suite in a large office building. On the outer door in plain black lettering one may read, Bailes Doyle, Mining Engineers. Behind a door marked, General Manager, Private, sits Tommy Doyle. In his eyes sparkles the fire of battle, and his conversation over the telephone indicates that some important business enterprise is under way. For several months Bailes Doyle had been completing the opening of a cinebar mine, a lode of which had been discovered by mere accident. By Doyle ' s quick work and far sightedness, an option had been secured which would control the output of the mine. A competing firm however was in the field, and were standing ready, backed by the gold of a New York syndicate to purchase these rights, the minute Doyle ' s option expired. With the mine opened, Bailes Doyle could procure loans enough to close their deal. It was a race upon which Tommy Doyle ' s future hung. Unless Bailes received certain parts of machiner - and equipment on time, there was danger of the enterprise failing. Business men in the New Mexico cit - marvelled at Tommy Doyle ' s rapid rise. Speaking before the board of Directors of the bank of which Tommy had just been elected President, Tommy Doyle told a quaint story. His first sentence shocked his hearers to attention with its simplicity. There are twenty four hours in every day, said Doyle. One of these is the keystone to all the rest. What a man does at this Page One Itundred Seventy-six hour marks the success or the failures bound up in the other twenty three. When the day ' s activities are over, one seeks leisure and recreation. Some choose recreation that makes for aid in the affairs of tomorrow while others choose that form which holds them within the limits of yesterday. I have found this hour to be seven p. m. As the Directors listened Tommy told the story of his frivolous college days, his tragic failures in the school of experience and his eventual awakening. Unable to again enter college, he took the next remaining step and obtained a correspondence course in mining. He worked in a steam laundry from seven until six. At seven he regularly commenced his study, and thus got his first grip on Tommy Doyle. After a few months of this old Coach found him, and Tommy was given another chance in the University where the old V thmore Gridiron coach was now located. Tommy made good, for he had learned the secret of Seven P. M. and after graduating, went into business with his old team mate, Leonard Bailes in New Mexico. Doyle was dictating when a message was brought to his office. The rhythm and music of the typewriters in the various rooms seemed to cease for the moment as Doyle opened the telegram. All sensed that on the little yellow sheet of paper was the answer to the months of struggle, which Tommy and Bailes had been making against the gold of a larger firm; success or failure, depended upon the contents of the tele- gram. The telegram was worded ; Equipment O. K. First ore up today according to plan. Owners want cash. McCreary ' s men are here. Am holding them one more day. Bailes. While Tommy ' s old friends in his old home town gathered at their club and while the Bowling team warmed up for the last game of a thrilling series, the follow- ing message was being enthusiastically read by Leonard Bailes: Fine work old man. Give them cash, sight draft on company O. K. here. Perhaps it was just an afterthought, perhaps it was premeditated, perhaps it was just one of the strange idiosyncrasies of man, but Tommy Doyle with an air of satis- faction and confidence called up a familiar number over the long distance telephone. Tommy talked for some time, to the fair creation in his old home town ; to the younger of the pair that had always believed he could and would make good. A few days later he was visiting his mother, and when she happily asked the time and date. Tommy ' s peculiar answer brought a smile to the aged face. Tonight, Mother, at seven p. m. was his reply. Strange hour for a wedding, son! was the only com- ment his mother made.
