West Virginia I niversitj New York I niversity, Boston College, l)a is and Elkins, I he Navy, and St, Xaviet defeated the Bobcats, while victories over Salem. Broaddus and Marshall, and a tie with W aynesburg graced the ledger The following summary of the schedule shows the formidable array which laced the Bobcats upon entering the 1027 season : 7 — West Virginia U 7 7 13— New York U 20 7 — Salem 6 6 — W ' avnesburg .6 Wesleyan.

A wealth of material left over from the 1020 squad and a likely group of first year men brought a total of forty men to camp. Led by Captain Dick Alvis and surrounded by Reiter, Bachtel, Canterbury, Bullington, Nutter. .Marsh. Rader, Reemsnyder, Pugh, 0. Young, X Anderson, W Anderson, .Miller. Davis, McClung, Roderiguez, I hud. and Kolopus, and augmented bv some star high school performers, the 1927 season was looked on with a great ileal of high hopes The first game of the year was with the old and time-honored foe from West Virginia University. The Bobcats rated . n even chance to stop the Mountaineers, but failed to live up to early predictions and went down to defeat 27 to 7 111 a game that thrilled thousands of spectators who filled the stadium for the contest.

An intercepted pass on the thirty yard line for a touchdown and Kolopus ' place kick gained a one point victory over Salem in the first win of the year. Wesleyan earned a o to 6 tie with the Waynesburg Yellow Jackets when Peck Reiter intercepted a pass on the 211 yard line and raced SO yards for the touchdown that tied the score in the last three minutes of play. Another jump into the East and another defeat Boston College, flying like the eagle of their emblem, pushed over five touchdowns and the Bobcats returned loser by a 3 3 to score. The ancient rival from Elkins came next. Wesleyan journeyed to that citj and there fell 13 to 7 in one of the greatest games ever played on the gridiron Dame 1 uck smiled on the Hurricane late in the game to turn the tide to victory. Next came the strong Navy team, undoubted!} one of the strongest teams in the I asl eslej an fought gamelj . hut was defeated 26 to 0. The overwhelming victory for Wesleyan in U 27 was the 58 to win over Broaddus College. In this game the .Methodists displayed superior strength in every phase of the game, scoring almost at will, in spite of the lighting qualities of the game little Baptists. Just as the win over Broaddus was the greatest win of the year for Wesleyan as far as score was concerned, so was the next game the worst defeat of the year. In this game the Bobcats failed to git going, and St.Xavier took their annual home- coming game at Cincinnatti, from eslej an In a score of 41 to d. The last game of the season was the Turkey Daj game against Marshall College I he Green and White had had a very successful season, and were very confident of victory, but the Rossmen journeyed to Huntington with a firm determination to return winners, and they were not disappointed. Wesleyan defeated .Marshall 19 lo before a packed stadium. 1 hus ended the 1027 season for the esleyan Bobcats. It was not verj success- ful, but with that true Wesleyan spirit the squad will start out next year v.ith a determination to avenge this year ' s defeats, and they will know that the best wishes of everyone connected with Wesleyan go with them One hundred eleven THE MURMURMONTIS i icX - Hud -Guard ■ft ■s.r o t One hundred twelve NINETEEN TWENTY-NINE E.n.d -r 1J ClTRiO IVlm-sh lacfcAe tJJat itis ©avis - Hall bacK SpatafoK One hundred thirteen THE MURMURMONTIS Unc hundred fourteen jy s NINETEEN TWENTY-NINE Wesleyan Basketball, 1928 Seven victories and fourteen defeats was the record of the l l )2,s West Virginia Wesleyan basketball team. A record none too good as to cause over-enjoyment, but a record of which the) are justly proud. Led by the spectacular Micke) McClung, the Bobcats faced a hard twenty-one game schedule. The season opened with a 47 to 19 victory over Broaddus College on the home floor early in January. I his was a good start but it took the ancient foe from Morgantown to dampen the spirits with a 36 to 26 defeat, a. few nights later. A thrilling 4 to 2S win over Glenville Normal a week later made things take on a brighter light, but this v as short lived as Marshall started the Bobcats on a long losing streak when they toppled them here at Buckhannon 26 to 17 Four straight defeats followed the .Marshall downfall. The Archdeacon ' s ol Grafton, West Virginia University, Waynesburg, and Salem took the scalp of the Orange. I he Graftonites opened the semester by trimming Wesleyan 7 to 50. A two day trip to Morgantown and Waynesburg, found the Bobcats losing their second tilt to the Mountaineers 4 to ?4, and falling before the Yellow Jackets 24 to 17. A return to the Bobcat lair was not enough to cause them to take the same from Salem College, for the Ten Aiders were ' licit ' and won 44 to 23. Bethany College then came to Buckhannon, and permitted the Bobcats to break their long losing streak, when Wesleyan won in a beautiful last minute spurt that brought victory. ( ebe K ' oss then took his passers into the Panhandle lor a three same series Wesleyan lost to the Frankel I nion live of Wheeling the first night 04 to 47. Bethany got revenge lor then loss of the previous week and sunk the visitors ' hopes with a 42 to 21 victory. Coming back to Fairmont on Saturday evening the Wesleyanites lost the thud straight game 4 to 31. ( n Washington ' s birthday the Bobcats succumbed to the Hurricane at Clarks- burg in a game that lacked the old time thrill so evident when Wesleyan and D. and I: play. Again, a two day trip saw us losing another pair of games. The strong Charleston Senators of the capital city took the Wesleyan men over 4i to 41. while Marshall College, playing at her best, was a bit too strong lor the Bobcats and they lost then second game to the Big Green. Victory was a sweet thing to the Bobcats, but siill Lady luck refused to smile on her and Wesleyan was defeated again 40 to 55 at Salem. Glenville was the next foe . tn fans from every section of Upshur and Gilmer counties packed in the Bobcat gym to see the Orange humble the Glenville quintet J9 to )1. rhen at the climax of the season Wesleyan nosed oul the Scarlet Hurricane on the Elkins floor -32. Two more victories followed in short order. Broaddus look her second licking 3(1 to I ' ), and Fairmont Normal fell at Buckhannon 25 to 52. On the eve of the Fifteenth Annual Tournament, four thousand fans packed the Bobcat gym, only to see the giants from Elkins trim the Rossmen m a real game from start to finish. It was a great opening for the high school classic, and ended the Wesleyan court season for 1928, 1 ' ii. hundred lUteun THE MURMURMONTIS Tennis Team, 1927 The Tennis Squad for 117 was an all-veteran aggregation, bolstered up by the return of two former men who were awa) I rem Wesleyan for a year and returned. These gentlemen were Cobourn and Westfall. The feature of the season was an eastern trip on which the team played some of the leading universities of the East The outlook for the coming season is very bright, the team still having four letter nun, about which to build a combination worthy of the state championship as in the past year. Last season ' s letter men were Gene Modlin, John Haught. f-red I taught, Frank Sigafoose, A. W. Ritzinger, John Cobourn and 13. F. Westfall. Cap- tain.

This past year has been one o! experimentation with a co-ordinated program. The scope of the program has been limited to those events which could be well organized. The program was divided into Fall, inter, and Spring sports. Each sport was given a set number of points, based on the comparative importance of the event, and each class received a certain number of points, proportionate to its final standing. One of the most interesting events was the Basketball League for men. Two leagues, class A ami B , were played. After a very close, and exciting series of games, the Juniors were declared the champions in both leagues. Dr. Wark is presenting a trophy to the class having the largest number of points. This will be a yearly trophy and well worthy of real competition. It is also planned to award individual prizes to the winners The program of sports, as played, was as follows Fall Touch l : ootbal Field I lockey Soccer Winter Basketball i Mem Basketball I omen ) Foul Shooting Sw miming Voile} Ball (.Men) ollev Ball i Women ) Indoor Baseball Spring renins Track i Men I Track I omen ) Baseball The standing of the classes at the close of the basketball season gave the Fresh- men, Inst place; the Juniors, second place: the Seniors, third; and the Sophomores last. One hundred se entccn THE MURMURMONTIS Girls ' Athletics Each year girls ' athletics, under the able supervision of Miss Alice Nason, are becoming more popular and better organized. 1 leretofore, there have been no niter- collegiate games between the girls of the different colleges, hut the adoption of inter- class sports for the girls has created a desirable form of exercise, and shows the department is keeping abreast with the tendencies of modern times. The Girls ' Athletic Board has not been active this year, due to the fact that Intra-Mural activities were in complete charge of the Intra-Mural Athletic Board which is made up of the four class presidents, a girl representative from each class, and the athletic directors. Mr. Simons and Miss Nason. The girl representatives ,ne as follows: Annis Ross. Senior; Eva Swisher. Junior; Ruth Cunningham, Sophomore, and Genevieve Gauds ' . Freshman. The interest in basketball was centered around the class teams for the first part of the season. The final matches had not been played when the year book went to press, but from the way the Freshmen team played it looked like they would be the champions of the year. After the final class games are played, a team from each sorority will play in a basketball tournament. The basketball managers wen- as follows: Virginia Caudy, Senior; Maxine Thacker, Junior; Mrs. Shumaker, Sophomore, and Roberta Peterson. Freshman. A full program was carried out the first semester which included besides basket- ball; hockey, volley ball, soccer, rhythms, and swimming. Quite a bit of interest was shown in the extra-curricular activities this year as each physical education student had to elect an Intra-Mural sport lor one of her regular class periods. Plans are under way for an interesting program the second semester. A tennis tournament will be played off before spring. Swimming and hiking will enter into the program. Track will be introduced and one afternoon will be given over to a track meet, which will include such events as a basketball throw, rolling pin throw, relax- races, and dashes. Miss Nason is planning a stunt day contest for the physical education classes in the spring. The exhibition will be a display of the work done in the gymnasium classes during the year. There will be two groups, thus causing rivalry for first places in the various events.

Beginning as a Chemistry Club it soon became interested in the related sciences. Other departments entered to strengthen the organization. And now it is the sole extra-curricular representative of the School of Sciences of Wesleyan College. Its purpose may be understood from a review of its activities. During the past year several industrial trips have been made to nearby cities, speakers of ability have appeared before the Ring and interesting discussions have been held and experiments performed by its members at arious meetings. Notable among the speakers was Mr Perkins Boynton. Chief Chemist of the Clarksburg Water Board of Clarksburg, West Va. Mr. Boynton delivered an excellent paper on What Price Water Purification. While science organizations are usually considered serious organizations the Ben- zene Ring believes in having a downright good time occasionally. Colorful, combustive and reactive initiations of new members are held at the be- ginning of each semester. An initiation banquet is usually tendered the new mem- bers. Second semester plans of the Ring include an open experimental meeting in At- kinson Chapel during the month of February, industrial trips to Weston. Clarks- burg. Charleston and Grafton. Several speakers are scheduled to appear at meet- ings this semester.
