HE opinion generally obtains that it is at colleges and uhivereities where educated men are mm'le. And yet, paradoxical tho it-wouhi seem, we do imi often, at these institutions. hear of educators, in the more profound and comprehensive sense 01' the term: we hear very much of professors, specialists, experts, authorities, et. alwethere are specialists in physics, specialists in Chem- istry, authorities in Em'ptology and authorities in mythology, experts in economics and experts in dinlectir-sj e- but to refer to an expert on ornithology, say, or a muster 0f bugolog'y, as an educator would be to speak inmngruously and to invite mirth. Neither are these specialists themselves very often desirous of having any such ttadditionnlv obligation, as seems to be implied in the apellation ul' educator, super- imposed upon their oihce: their business is not to educate, - they have agreed to no such extra-duty upon accepting their professorships: their business is to impart fecteefaets in physics, facts in mathematics, facts in whatever the special science may he to which they have demlied themselves. All the specialists, moreover, make the student feel that their respective sciences are in themselves the ali-in-all, the end of life And then follows the complete hewiidemient of the student as to which one of these muititudiuous ends of life it may be the desire of Providence that he should attach himself to; he is directed to the vocational expert who is a master in the interpretation of Providential intentions with respect to individual cases. e e But the educatorewho is he? What does he consider to he the end of life? In what Capacity does he oiliciate?--We deem it that the educator is, in the iirst place, himself an educated man. And an educated man, someone has said, is tone with :1 universal sympathy for everything and a certain amount of knowledge about everything that is known, and who still is 011 the line of evolution and is learn ing to the end.n An educated man conceives the end of eirei'y 111211175 life to he one. A true educator will define the purpose of education to be the unEolding of the noblest that is in :1 man, the creating and nurturing of high ideals in each individw e1 soul; and all pursuits and exercises in the manifold arts and sciences, he explains- to he of importance only in so far as these are contributory to this grand and univer- sal end, of making life great and beautiful for all of us upon the lam . m? 90 we have iem-nt it from 0111' Doctor Bartholomew: he is himself just such an eduvated man, and such an edueatm-ze A man: the catholiuity of whose imowletige, and pro fouuchiess and extensiveness of whose sympathies, tempts us to qunte the words of Messala, in Tacitus?

A philosopher: not satislied alone with the specialistic and analytic tendency of science, its destructive and disintegratix'e methods, its prejudice for niateriality,H but animated by a desire to construct, to synthes LE, to comprehend into a. wholes- D. unity, he becomes a philosopher. He would see all. things, at bottom, interrelated: the world is a harmony; each ostensibly separate and individualistic manifestation is after all, directly ni- indirectly, concordant with this universal symphony. There is, in the last analysis, but one Fact; one is the pause: one animating force. This force, he explains, is a spiritual principle. A critic: a. man with a kemi perception of artistic proportion; a broad under- standing of human nature; at psychological insight into the motives that actuatc and propel human expression. A A poet: in his emotionalism, and passion for beauty, qualities which often find eloquent expression in his speech and take completely captive his audience. A poet, too, in his lofty idealism. A11 optimist: a believer in health of body, and the immortality of the soul; the latter from, what he would assert, a logical 01' psychological necessity. He would agree with Piot'mus, that the soul W11 ic-h i5 piu'iii ed by philosophy here below, continues to be purified beyond the grave.,, A mystic: Yes, with all his passion for rationality and demonstrability there is, withal, it touch of the mystic in him, too You have but to study a little the certain distant and contemplative look in his eye, to observe that there is that in him. And in his eiucidations how often have We not heard him, When human logic has seemed insumcient, refer to a certain mysterious and oriental power called intuition. A Christian: in his faith in Christ as the redeemcr of humankind. An intelli- gent Christian; a Christian from a reasonable-phiiosophicnl necessity, A Chris tian especially, in his attachment to the personality of Christ.-4We said he is a Christian because of philosophical necessity: mg were wrongsho is ii lover of and believer in Christ first, and a philosopher r-ouc-erning His mission, secondarily. His devotion to Christ is the serious fact to him; his philosophical cogitations, like a great man, he will cheerfully smile away. 15 not of supreme importance. A11 educator: in teacher thru personal inspiration; he believes in interesting his students in the pursuit of high and ideal things. by being interested in such pursuits himselfi Au educator he is 1101023 i'ol'cns, as it Were, by virtue of his per- sonality. There is somewhat of the Emcrsonian in him. He believes and promul- gates, and personally cxemplih'es the truth. that wherever :1 great and good man moves and acts and speaks among men. there is an educative force. m 4$.

Hasselquist 1816e1916 HE memory of Dr. T. N. Hasselquist is dear to us all. With his name are linked great memories of our past history, for he was. one of the pioneers and staunch workers in the estahlishment of Swedish Lutheranism in this- Jand of ours. 0m- parents, who loved and revered this name, instilled us with the same love and 110110? toward him and thru them we have hecnme attached to him. Toichiy, as students at Angustana, we are enjoying the fruits of his labors, for he was vitally interested in uphuilding and maintaining a center at Christian education. He was untiring in his .eli'm'ts to Promote the cause of Christ in this way, and thru our college he has made his influence felt everywhere within our Church. D'r. Hasseiqnist was president of August mt for about 28 years and during that time he built her 1113 on solid foundations. The interests of Augustann. were riear to his heart. He nourished her well. He was anxious for the well being of her students. He was in truth theii .. 1ide, their friend, in short, their father, and so he was anxious 1'01 their progress and he rejoiced to see his progress come. Surely it has come, mail as we look hack on the past we cannot but feel grateful for such a man as Dr. Hasselquist. Is it any wonder that we love him, revere him, who did so much that she might prosper? He was a. godly 1mm, simple and profound, severe and yet sympathetic. He had a great personality. He was a consecrated, diligent, and upright laborer in Go: is vineyard. In this he meant much for our Church and thm this he exerted a powerful infiuence upon his own generation and those that have followed since. He had a noble character: and we cannot but feel that this character speaks to 115, as if he lived among us but yesterday. Years have passed since D11 Hasselquist was active in these halls of 0111's. Several generations of stuc'ients have since then gone out from these halls into the various walks of life, and they, too, like us, have felt the inHuence of him as a power, an incentive to a greater and a better life. . As we go about 0111' work, our duties, day by Clay may we remember what he stood for. May his memory inspire us to greater things. May it he an incentive to he more diligent and earnest. May it show us what we may become. How we may also be servants in the same Masterk work Our work is a continuation of What he began, it. is along the same line-the advancement of Goths Kingdom among menea pointing and a showing of men the way unto salvation. May the same spirit actuate and stir us tn cheerfuliy enter into the work which lies before us, to apply our hearts and lives to the greater things of life, that 0111' lives may have a wider and more far-reaching influence for the muse of right. May the memory of Dr. Hasselquist be blessed among us and the generations of students who are to follow us in these dear old halls of 0111' Alma Mater! $ Page Twenty-mle Greeting Class of 1916 to the mmiy friends of Augustmm whose homes this book will reach. The Class of .1916 is one of the large classes, which have com- pleted their College course at our institution. As teachers we have learned to apple- ciate the work the members of the class have accomplished both as pupils ill the elass-reem, and also as prominent factors in the various student activities 0E their Alma. Mater. We feel assured that they will ever look upon their college thys at Augustami as happy and heueiieial; during these days their horizon has broadened end they have caught the vision of high ideals, which they go forth to attain and to exemplify in their lives. We congratulate them upon the opportunities which lie before them and hope that they shall prove worthy soldiers in the cause of righteous- ness. Year after year the college family ehanges rapidly; as one class goes forth new recruits are needed to till the ranks, and hence we hope that the ROCKETY-I, reach- ing the homes in various putts of 0111' land, may give bnth the parents and those young people who are contemplating going to college, such an impression of Angus- tsnm that they shall feel that. it is the best place possible for the preparation of young men and women for the duties which lie before them both in church activi- ties and in CiVlC life. During the school year, which is past, we as an institution have celebrated the hundredth anniversary of the birth of Dr. T. N. Hesselquist, who for twenty-eight years was at the head of Augustunn; we have also remembered the seventy-iifth anniversary of the birth of his successor, Dr. 0. 0155011, who was connected with our institution during a. great. number of years and during nine was its chief executor. These men laid the foundations breed and wide: were interested in all these things that belong to development of the powers, which God has euclowerl us; both of them loved music and were instrumental in adding a cenaervatory to our departments. They gave their lives unstintiugly t0 the serviee oi God and t0 the advancement of the institution, with which they were connected. They were men of deep culture and broad sympathies and served as an inspiration both to those who knew them personally and to generations living after them, who will benefit by their lifets work. In contemplating the life of such leaders we learn to admire their singleness of purpose, their devotion, their ability and their success ; and in our own hearts there rises hoih the sense of responsibility and also the appreciation of the fact that We are called to perform an important work, and we feel that the problems which face us. in our day are as diliieult and as important as these with which the fathers had to wrestle. The call, therefore, to all of us, including the Class of 1916', is to go forth and be laborers in the work, strong in the strength of the Lord, that we by His guidance may accomplish much in the great soaiel service to which He summons us individually and unitedly. We all join in greeting the class welcome as co-laborei's in the great field of lifeis activities and. wish them now and in the future Gndts abundant blessing.

And does it not make you tingle with a. sense of pride that we, , ma, have a theological seminary? Then, too, when we think of the 51.x Iive rich years at its history all studded with grand old landnmrks! The Seminary n: the crown of the educational work 01' Ulll' own Augustana Synod and out of her loins have come all our eolleges and aimdeinies. She was the Alpha and is now the Omega 0t 0111' educational work But she is more than that. For sixty-I'n'e years she has been milling young men to her side and they have come from the South, East, North, mid West. Anderson, Carlson, Johnson, Petersen, these have come and sat at her feet. t1A. book, a wilderness, and Then! A wilderness is no mere ehmuaa This has been their discovery, for they have received from her a new world- view. No, not new, For it is as old as the story of mankind, but it was new to them -the view of 21 sin-sonked world and its only hopefthe risen Lord! Cut into the gleat world have they gone, and Church spires, orphanages, and hospitals have arisen to testify that her teaching has been true. She has recog- nized 119 East, no West, no North, no Smith! Her admonition has been: Win ye into all the world! In threeAi'oui'tlm 0f the states of our own Union, in Canada and Alaska our people have responded to her tenrliing'. Nay: more. for in Porto Rice, India, China the chains of heathendom have hecn broken and natives have come to the knowL edge 01' the Word oli tod. And there is the same appeal to our ytmng mm or to-thly. Vie will go it step fuither and say that the eomplexnty of the modern civilization has made the appeal more urgent today than ever before. Many believe that the problems before our own Augustana Synod are far greater and more difficult of solution than these which farzed mn- pioneer Fathers. Dr. Theodore E. Selminnk recently expressed the idea that the forces of human intellect nnd science are being- marshalled together to pro laim to the work? that they are greater than the wisdom OI God. At nm- event the tell to the ministry of the Gospel is suffircient to challenge the biggest and the hest in the college mam.

From the founding of the institution iteclf, the students 111m: felt the need of various societies, to compliment their regular- work in the chissrnmn. This need was first. met by the organization of the Phi'enokosininn literary muiety in 1860, with the purpose of developing literary talent and to foster literary it'len'ls. that time the Adelphie and three Swedish literary societies have been organized.

Thus we find in ghmr-ing over the student urganizatimls at Augustana that every phase of college life is represented.

An. examination of the is. 10s 01' the past several years proves that in respect to s .8, quality and popularity, the history of the Observer has been a steady fnrwardqnnrch. The Iinnneinl condition ol' the paper has never been better than it is at present, thanks to our many onai alumni subscribers and our liheml advertisers, We aim to make the Augustmm Lyceum Course an educational institution of the highest merit. We hook only the very best talent II: our choice at musieal attractions we consider only xm-h talent as has, and is presenting prugmnw of pieasi ing quality and variety. Our readers, interpreters and entertainers are people who have established, and are maintaining the very host reputations: in their respective lines. Our lecturers must be men who have something important to say: and who mu also deliver themselves of that message in an interesting, hnpressire amt etfcr-tive manner. Until we are sure that an attraction can measure up to thi. standard we sign 1m contracts. The spirit of the Lyceum is progressit'e. A resolute determination to make each successive Course decidedly better than any of its predecessors has ever been the dominant spirit. That this aim has also in past years been realizea is evident both tram the rereipts at the hoxiofIiee and from the testimony of hundreds of pleased and enthusiastic patrons: The Lyceum Course is not it 1110110y4naking enterprise, but it has never failed to pay for itself. This years Course wns the biggest, the must expensive, and it has proven itsell' by far the best that has ever been presented at Augustnna. The Course was , composed of twelve numhers, inehtdiug Gay Zenotn Mac-Lnreu. Judge Marcus A, Kavunaugh, Bohumir Kryl, Tahnn, the Hon. Roht. B. Glenn, Lomdo Taft, John Kenrick Bangs, Dr. Claude W. Fuss, the Eduardo Clark Company, Edward Am- herst Ott, the College Orchestra and the Wennerberg Male Chorus. A Course for thW, inc'lmting Myrna Shm'tmr. John Tempte Graves, Henry II. Hyde, the Hon. Henderson Martin, - Ell'iam Newem. the ther Mule Quartette, Np; P0011 Chew. Ft'nnl: Dixon amt James Watt- Rnino. has already been hooked with the Redmth Bureau of Chicago. In elusing we deem it fair to state that the surcess of our Course in :1 huge part has been due to the exwllent talent furnished us by the Rrrtpalh People. and also to their eon nt cooperation and nsttetanee in the promotion of the Course.

Augie Wants Football HERE are thiIty-two leading colleges and four state normal schools in the I staterof Illinois, and all but four of these play intercollegiate games and every one of the four favors the sport and expects to resume the game this coming fall. Is it necessary to say that our own Augustana is one of the four? Again let us look at the Lutheran colleges. The ones which play football are Bethany, Wittenberg, Thiel, Roanoke, Newberry, Gettysburg, Susquehanna, Midu land, and Mnhlenherg. On the other hand those not having the intercollegiate game are Augustana, Gustams Adolphus, Luther tDeeorah, IaJ, St. Olaf, and Upsahl. It should he said 1'11 regard to the last two mentioned that Upsala has permission frum the Board at Directors to play secondary schools, and at St. Olaf they favor the sport but not the intercollegiate genlesl Last fall St. Olaf haul ten i'nterci'tws games and boast of the fact that 91 men were feetball suits. Let us examine a little further in regard to the number of schools and colleges playing football. The latest statistics have been received by the Committee from Parke H. Davis, a prominent attorney of Easton, Pan, and a member of the Coup mittec on Football Rules. He says: tiLast fall football was played by 7,000 schools and colleges thmnut the United States. 160,000 players participated in the organ- ized games and 7,000,000 people attended these games?: Now, we may argue as long as we wish to against fuutball, but we will have to admit that there must be some exceptional quality in the game itself when it receives almost universal favor from our schools and colleges and appeals to so many millions of American people. The quality is there and, what is more, the students at Augus- tam feel it and are always asking for the game. One of our professors has said that the real argument for football at Angustana is that the students want it and therefore we should offer to them the same advantages which are offered in other schools, and it is a fact that a. student feels hurt when he sees that other college students have advantages which he does not have. There are, however, real reasons why we Augustana students want football. We know that it is the one sport which must fully enters into the feelings of the students, alumni, and faculty and evokes the largest and most intense expression of institutional loyalty and the student with ref! blood in his veins does not wish to face the fact that the students of other colleges are more loyal than we are. It hurts us to read columns in the 03in press in the fall about other colleges and to see that our own coilege is omitted. We believe it to he a fact that the college receiving the must publicity is the college the must talked about and for that very mason attracts our high school classmates and friends. The college without feothall does not attract the stutlents with athletic ability and therefore it seems lmpoasible to win much recognition in any other of the sports without the popular gridiron game and we want more rccugnih'an for A-ugzeztmw.

Swede still maintains the position of center on the varsity 1111a. He has been in the game from start to finish and has by his Playing always spurred the boys on to vie tory. He has the distinction of being can, taiu of his squad and in that uapacity he has served well. as shown by his popularity with the boys. Emma Jonxsox '18 Ed has been in the game, showing up in his old time form. As a. guard Eddie is right on the Job, very few baskets are caged when hats around. Eddie has become our star guard, and when yuu see him in action you'll know the reason why. We all like Eddie because of his playing and good spurt- manship. CLARENCE SAMUELSON, '18 During the past season Sam has been our star forward. He has displayed speed and accuracy in caging baskets, especially when they count must, Sammy is quite a favorite with the boys. not to mention the girls, so to this we can attribute quite. a bit of his success. Fellowship and good spirit always help to make a good all round player. FAKE Emma Reeves is a new ,man, mining to us from Ruck Island high, where he was a basket ball star. He broke into the game in fine style this season and has been a. great factor in our winning machine. We are sorry, how- ever, that Reeves won't be with us again, but there's a reasun-Fayc's got a Wife. HJALMAI: BEILGH Bergii is a. veritable mountain and crack guarti an the varsity squadi Berg's always on the job. and his smiling uountenance as he breaks up the plays of the npponeuts thrills with spirit and gives renewed effort to the game We expect Berg on the job yet for awhile and greater things are expected or him. Page One Hundred and. Eighzytwo J$. ijxuux JOHNSON. '18 Franklin comes from Molina. He has made his way thru consistent, hard playing tn the varsity squad. Franklin plays a steady game and is fast developing into a star guard. In the games he played he was quite instrumental in kaeping down the opponents' SCUI'B. CLARENCE BLOOM BERG, Y1:3 Bloom'i is small but must be taken into consideration when it comes to playing basA ketball. that's where he counts. Altho small he wiggles and squirms and comes out on top with the ball shooting thru the basket. This is Bloomis second year on the squad, a, truly valuable asset in the making of next years varsity. WM. GLEASON, '19 Gleason is a new man and. from Rock 15- land. I-Ieis a second Berg. He showed fine floor work, and aitlm a. guard he was quite successful in dropping the ban thru the net- ted basket. This is his first season with us and we hope to retain him. because he is a valuable asset to any team. Roam: CAliLsox, 19 Roger broke into the game in line style this year, so we are sure of 9. good man for the coming year. Roger has rapidly come into favor with the routers, and. well he might. for be displayed great accuracy in basket shooting and skill in floor work We bespeak success for Roger. $ Page One Hundred and Eighiy-tm-ec 4 2355.

During the year the regular schedule of thirteen games was played and Augustana came out the winner eleven times. The squad this year was composed of reliable men and who filled their positions creditably. Captain Swedberg was the central figure in the Tzlreity Five and with him out of the game the squad would certainly be handicapped. F01- forwards we had such men as Samuelson, Reeves, Bloomberg and Carlson, and of their playing all that need be said is that it was of championship caliber. The guard positions were well held down by such players as Berg, E. Johnson, Gleason and F. Johnson; they made their playing count as we C2111 see from the small number of baskets caged by 0111' opponents. Basket hall is the leading sport here at sehoel 11ml it was well supported by the fans. The only trouble was the same that has handicapped our team nml fans in the past and that was the lack of playing space and seating capacity. This we hope shall be remedied next season, but dare We hope to see a new hgynft replace the old worn out structure which now occupies ground 011 mu- campus? Regardless of this fact our boys have done their work well ; perhaps things could have been better, but we shall not complain nor criticize. To 0111' mach credit must be given for the way in which he hrot the team into shape. theient coaching has infleed been a factoi- in the winning of games. Next season we look fonvard to :1. championship five as must of our 0111 men will be hack on the job. The girls have this year proved themselves loyal representatives of Angie coeds and they have upheld the good name and fame of Angie in their line also. Not a very elaborate schedule of games were played, but those that were played were inter eating and lively contests. The girls have proven that they too are interested in the game and that they can play it also. Altho not so lively as the boys, game it has afforded interest and pleasure to 0111' many fans. We feel that the basket ball season has been a credit to Augie. The games played have been good, :1 credit to the loser as well as the winner. The we did not win the championship we shall not murmur but stay in the game and try, tr;r again. We feel proud of our boys and giris and hope for greater successes in the future.

' ' xEm $ Page One Hundred and Ninety-ome JULIUS JOHNSON, Orlptm'ni Here's to our captain, ready and eager to lead his men to the track at the first sign of spring to train tham far the iitrnck contests. Julius is our Hwinner in the long distance runs. He's a dependable sort or a fellow and a good all round track man. Julius is cer tainly a point winner for Augie. V. Nommlu-lx. '17 A stellar performer at clearing the bar and a consistent point winner is Nordgren. He is a star when it comes to high Jumping, ox- hihiting all those qualities that make for perfection in this eventispeed, spring and quickness. It is our good fortune to have him with us next year. There are possibili- ties of him developing in other fields also. E. BENSON. 16, Benson has been a member of the Track Squad 3. number of years. Although not a star, Benson is a. dependable man in the half and mile runs. His record is one of steady and noteworthy progress. He has exhibited marked qualities of determination and en- durance. LOUIS ECKSTRDM Red is a new addition to our Track Team and a. most valuable one at that. HB has shown his caliber as a middle distance rum ncr and is deserving of much credit for the excellent record which he made this season. Eckstrom is a star performer at the 440. Without any doubt; he will continue his stel- lar work next year. PAUL JOHNBDN, 19 Paul is a new man at Augie, but has be, gun to show considerable class, especially in sprinting. Paul is no doubt a comer, and we are in hnpes that he will stay With us a few years. The hundred yard dash and high hurdles are his specialties. Being light and limher, he makes a good hruad jumper. Page One Hundred and Ninety-two .$. Amzxnxmcu ELMHLAD, 17 Alex, or Mercury's rival, was a reliable and dependable man. Speed is his special- ty, and he made use of his powers to the best advantage in every cuntest. Alex ran the 100 yard and 220 yard dashes. He is a hard man to beat. Consistency has been his watchwcrd. Roam: CAuLsox, '19 This is Carlson's first year in Track. How, ever, he measures up to his usual good record in athletics, by running a persistent and. plucky race in the 440 and other distance runs. He is a sure comer, and all expect him to make a still more brilliant showing next season. T. Joln'soh', '16 Johnson is a. worthy man to run the 220 and 440. He enters a. race With great an- thusiasm and a resolution to win. He is a runner of no mean ability. He aisplays con- siderable endurance and speed and has made himself a formidable opponent in every con- test he has entered. H. FMXELL, '17 ' Hurdling requires the best possible in a. track man, Fryxell is our own local per, former. He has shown to good advantage in every contest he has entered His ranking qualities can be summed up in the word 'Perseverence. A. Luck, 16 Lugn, our dependable 880 yard runner and miler, is a beacon light on the Track Squad. His furry crown befits a man of his nary energy and. indomitable spirit. There is nothing sensational about Lngu's Work. but a, bull day determination to get there has made him a distance runner feared by all his opponents. Page Om: Hundred and NincTy-Uzrcc W. Spencer G.

EDGAR JOI-INSON,. 18 Captain Edgar is one of the veterans on the team. This season he has done the receiving, but nevertheless Edgar is right there when it. comes to pitching. Edgar delivers the ball with plenty of steam, which puzzles many a batten He demonstrated this in the Eureka game. KNUT ERIGKSO'S, '16 Knut's our veteran sacker, and none better is to he found. He covers the initial corner to perfection because of his long reach. We are sorry that Knut leaves this year, because we will have to look far and wide to find a man to ml his place as he fills it. During his stay at Augie he has proved a valuable and dependable man and has won a place in the hearts of the Augie fans. EGXER LABsox, i1 ! Lars played at short last season, but this year we find him holding down the second berth. He helds the ball in great style, and he has been in the game from the start to the finish. Lars has a great batting eye, and he has been hitting well this season. He's the fear of many a pitcher. CLARENCE Emmi 15mm. '18 Bloom not only stars in basketball. but 1165 right in the game when it comes to base- ball. Bloom interchanges With playing third base and doing the pitching. As a third sacker he is on a. par with anyone and covers lots at ground. He has been showing up well in the pitchers hox also. Page One Hundred and, Ninetysiw Rocketqal Mn Rolu-zii'i' POISON HBob is back in the game again this year and is showing cld time form. Bob is cur utility man. but has been holding down third base when uBluum has done the hurling Bob fields his position well and before the season is over will have shown his capabili- ties as a baseball man. ELLIOT LUNDHEKG Cub has been playing left field this sea- son and has made great catches out there. Whenever a ball comes into his territory it's a sure one for UCub. This is accounted for because of his being fast on his feet. Cub has a good eye for betting. and. when he gets on bases he needs watching or else stolen bases will he to his credit. CLARE . SAMUHLSON, iIS Sammy has been playing right field most 0: the time. He caught his first game for Augie against Eureka. He did the receiv- ing in fine style and looks like a comer. This is his first season as a regular man, and 1m, doubtedly he has won a permanent place on the team iiSammy hits the ball well also. EHEN Fousmxu, Y18 Bah has shifted from second base to shortstop, where he gobhies up the liners from off the bat. Bab handles the ball quickly, and with his timely assistance many double plays are pulled off. iiBah moves about with case and receives and delivers the ball at will. i'Bah is one of the strong men in our infield machine. u J$u 4.3 Page One Hundred and Nincry-seven thoxium KENDALL. '19 Kendall cumes from our sister state across the river, from Ottumwa, Iowa. Kendall broke into the game this spring and secured a position in center field. Althu a leflhander and the oniy one we have, lie makes his thruwa good. He fields the hall fast. and lanks like a corner both in the field and with the bat. PAUL RANDOLPH. '18 Paul broke intu the game last season and quickly gained a iirep by his brilliant field- ing and timely hitting. When Paul hiis the ball WE a sure one for a long hit, either a, two hagger 01- a. three sacker. Paul has gained the confidence of his team mates. REUBEN PALMER, 18 Palmer is another one of our new men, but has as yet not. been given the chance to show what he is good for, because he has been onei of the subs. As a utility man Palmer ought. to make good, and in the years to come at his stay at. Augie he Will undoubtedly prove his worth. RALPH BENGSTDN Bengston is an Illinois boy and since the beginning of the school year has made his home permanently in Rock Island. Heis a new man, but has succeeded in landing one of the sub positions on the baseball squad. Bengston hasn't been seen in wutking yet, but we expect to see him do things when he gets into a regular game.

The material that we hich at hand looks good and the prospects for a good representative team are flue. To be sure, we shall miss and do miss some of the old main stays of the team, but then there are several new finds that make us cheerful. Edgar J eh'nson will do most of the receiving, the he will undoubtedly be found at the mound in several at our games this season. A valuable assistant in the slab department we have found in Bloemberg, and when not doing the heavy work nBloom will cover third base. At the initial corner we have our old stand by Erieksnn, who plays his last season of baseball at Augie. Larson is playing at second and Bah at short. In the outfield we find some capable baseball men, so 0111' outlook is indeed very promising. 0111- team, however, is not made up of brilliant individual stars but good hard- working men who work consistently together and play good steady hall that wins ball games. After all that is what we want, a. team that wins and can uphold the good. name and fame of Augustmm in athletics. Certainly when we have such :1, team in the iieid we can feel proud, because we know that they represent Augie might. In the games so far played we have had a. chance to see the real worth of the team. The Bradley game, the first. of 'the season, showed that our team was well balanced and dependable. The game with Eureka showed a marked improvement, for the boys played errorless ball and every man seemed to have gotten his eye on the hall and so they clouted it, slow and steady, and drove in one run after another.
