LAK averting 5MSION If art ttinrft Four years of horror and misery have passed during which the College had to divert much of its attention from its academic duties to givo its energy to the service of humanity. At last the trumpets of War are stilled, and the World, wearied by the gigantic struggle, rests for awhile before it shall rise to rebuild its wasted cities and devastated fields. The Class of 1919. having struggled through College while the Great War sapped at its vitals, emerges at last, triumphant, and at its graduation from this most liberal of institutions, it presents as a token of its love this book. Since 1916 no Microcosm appeared, and it is hoped that this one shall be only the first of a long line ot publications which will leave in word and picture a record of the College's activities. It has fallen to the lot of the Class of 1919 to be a pioneer, and creditably has it blazed the trail. It saw the quiet gravness of the College walls take on a martial brown, and when Peace had settled again on St. Nicholas Heights, it bound together the once dissociated organizations of the College into that now well-established institu- tion. the C. C. N. Y. Union.” It was the Junior Classes which formerly were wont to publish “Microcosms” but the Class of 1919. profiting by the experience of former classes, has brought out this publication in its Senior Year. The Class of 1919. nurtured carefully by Alma Mater, must now leave her encircling arms to take its place in the World. And if it but tries to live up to her ideals, no matter what the consequences arc. it feels that she will always be proud of her sons. Many have died to hold the Torch of Knlightenmcnt high in the air. and the members of the Class just graduated enter Life just in time to grasp the Torch, God's own I-ight. from the “failing hands” of these dead heroes and to “carry on.” 6 3tt UUmnriam AiolpJy ttJrnm Born, Franfcfort-on-4he-Main, Germany, Jan- uary 5. 18.59—Came to America in 1850—Re- ceived B.S. from the old Free Academy as Val- edictorian of his class in 1857— M.S. 1860— Ph.D. Rutgers Female College. 1880—Tutor at the College of the City of New York 1857-1861— Professor of German language ami Literature 1861-1915—Acting President 1910-1911. 1914- 1915—Kmeritus Professor 1915-1919—President of the Gamma Chapter of Phi P.eta Kappa— Died.

The long-felt necessity of the college since 1916 is here at last. “Necessity is the mother of invention.” 10 J Cliiir (ttnllwjp in t r Hkr The war was a test of many American institutions and it was also a school. It tried the spirit of bus- iness. of tile professions, and of political parties, and it also proved the colleges. Though actual warfare was for us very short in duration, its experiences taught valuable lessons. While, to be sure, there were in- dividual cases of politicians, business men. college professors,- and students who revealed grave defects of char- acter under the test of war, our institutions as a body responded, to the call of war in a most inspiring manner and acquitted themselves gloriously in the struggle. The students, alumni, faculty, and trustees of our own college made an enviable record and the College has learned lessons which will bear fruit in the future. It will be recollected that in the latter part of March and in the first few days of April, 1917, the Gov- ernment seemed to entertain some doubt concerning the feelings of America on the question of entering the war. Our student body was one of the first to pledge support to President Wilson in the crisis. Mass meetings were held by the students of the Day Session and of the Evening Session at which resolutions of loyalty were solemnly and unanimously adopted. These meetings were not noisy or boisterous or tilled with thoughtless expres- sions of schoolboy enthusiasm; they were calm and pervaded with a deep feeling of loyal responsibility and obli- gation to dedicate all to national service. On the fifteenth of February, the Faculty resolved to place itself and all the resources of the College. Iioth physical and intellectual at the service of the National Government, and the Hoard of Trustees, on April 3, joined in the resolution and transmitted it to the President of the United States. The College had. earlier than this, organized a Department of Military Science with a course of study outlined by the War I epartment. and Professor Herbert M. Holton was placed in charge of the work. When Professor Holton left with his regiment for France, after the Declaration of War, Captain King. D. S. O.. Canadian Army was made Professor of Military Science. The Evening Session organized the first battalion for college men in the country, to which were admitted men from any college. This battalion drilled in the Stadium at night and had representatives from twenty-six American institutions and five foreign universities. Hcforc the Man-Power bill was passed, the College was giving military training to its Day Session students, those of the Evening Session, those of Townsend Harris Hall and the College men’s battalion. After the Declaration of Whr. many of the upper classmen of the Day Session and of the Evening Session enlisted as volunteers in various branches of the armed service, and those who remained at home con- tinued energetic preparations of drill and study. Two hundred and sixty-five Day Session undergraduates entered the service before the Student Army Training Corps came to turn the whole College into a great training camp. Even more of the mature men of the Evening Session left college to join the colors, but here it has been 12 impossible lo get an accurate record of each case. Thirty-seven members of the Faculty entered military service, ten obtained leave of absence in order to take up cx|)erts’ work required by the war activities of the country or sen-ice with the Y. M. C. A. and Red Cross, while a great many who remained on duty at the College did war work besides. In September, 1917. the State Military Law (Slater Law) made military training compulsory for all students between the ages of sixteen and nineteen. This included many students of Townsend Harris Hall and some of the lower classmen of the College. The drills began on September 27 in the armory of the Twenty-Sec- ond Engineers with an initial attendance of about twelve hundred. At this time organizations all over the country were raising funds to send ambulances to France. Our Alumni raised such a fund and sent a College of the City of New York Ambulance to France with the Metropol- itan Unit which was being assembled by the City Club. Malcolm I� . Schloss. a sophomore, was sent with it as driver. The unit was twice decorated for gallantry in action, awarded the eroix dc guerre with palms and permitted the honor of wearing the fez. Schloss also was individually cited and received the eroix dc guerre. Other students were cited in like manner as soldiers. At this writing the complete roll of honor has not been made up and it would; therefore, be best to refrain from giving a partial list. Our College was especially honored when, in the summer of 1917. the Signal Corps. Department of the East, selected it as the place in which to conduct the first Signal Corps School established in the Country. The technical work was under the immediate care of Professor Alfred N. Cold smith and the school was part of the Division of Vocational Subjects and Civic Administration. Beginning with a group of about fifty men. it grew rapidly, until, at the time of demobilization, it had over five hundred men. These soldier students were well selected and of a high grade of intelligence. The course of study was for seventeen weeks, new groups being taken in each month—a hundred at a time. Responding to an emergency call from overseas the College equip- ped an entire multiplex telegraphy laboratory in less than a week. This necessitated the complete demolition of the forge and founderv room, refinishing, and the installation of elaborate electrical equipment with all neces- sary wiring. In less than two months the first contingent of multiplex ojicrators was on its way from the Col- lege to France. The Navy Intelligence Bureau established one of its wireless stations in the North or Bell Tower of the Main Building, utilizing our radio plant for the detection of submarines and for other secret work of the Navy. The Navy Department also established at our College, as part of the Division of Vocational Subjects and Civic Administration, the only Radio Compass School in the country. Petty officers who had completed the radio course at Harvard received post-graduate instruction with us before l cing assigned to duty at sea. The importance of the-work of this school in a new field of naval warfare i.an hardly be measured. After the Armistice, the school was transferred to Pelham Bay to be continued as part of the Navy's system of officer training. 13 With the opening of the College in October. 1918. the War Department made arrangements for the conduct of units of the Student Army Training Corps. All men over eighteen at the time had been required to register with the Draft Hoards. Those who were qualified for College had the privilage of immediate enlistment for the purpose of assignment to the Student Army Training Corps. At our College the enlistment was very large. All the students under eighteen and those rejected as physically unfit were sent to the old Twenty-Third Street Building for civilian instruction. Fortunately that huilding had been renovated as a College of Commerce and was in condition to he used for the teaching of over seven hundred civilian students. All the buildings on the heights were devoted to the Student Army Training Corns. This corps was divided into two great sections. The Signal Corps School, which had formally been conducted by the College in direct contact with the Signal Cor| s. now became a part of the Vocational Division of the Student Army Training Corps. It was known as the “B” section of the Student Army training Corps. The “A” section was made up of our own students who were to receive general training to fit them for officer service in the infantry or for service in certain special branches, such as ordnance, engineering, artillery and chemical warfare. The College authorities were faced with the problem of not only instructing but of housing and feeding all the men of the Student Army Training Corps. The general arrangements and responsibility of this work rested with the Vocational Division of the College which had already made similar arrangements for the Signal Corps group. At this | oint the Trustees of the College provided funds on their own personal guarantee to enable the Di- rector of the Division to finance ojierations connected with housing and feeding. The Trustees authorized a loan of $50,OCX) from the Corn Exchange Bank, and Messrs. Baiuch. Kohns, Lydccker, and MeAneny personally endorsed the note. The Loth Building at 150th Street and Amsterdam Avenue was quickly leased and within three weeks con- verted into a very thorough- equipped barracks which cared for over seven hundred and fifty students. The Great Hall was cleared of its chairs and turned into a barracks as were many of the classrooms and corridors of the College. The Students Concourse was strip| ed of its moveable equipment and turned into a great mess hall. The gymnasium became Military Headquarters. In a surprisingly short time the college group on St. Nich- olas Heights were turned into an Army |K� st and no civilian students were cared for during the day with th e only exception of the preparatory students who continued their recitations in Townsend Harris Hall. Of course the Evening Session and Vocational Division of the College continued work as usual, and even grew during the jieriod of the war. The division of the student body according to the courses of study taken was as follows: The Army sec- tion was made up of 834 men pursuing courses prescribed for candidates looking forward to commissions in the Infantry and Artillery: 149 in the Air Service; 79 in the Chemical Service; 44 in the Engineering Corps, and 25 14 in the Medical Service, or a total of 1,127 men. This A section of the army was organized in the military manner as live companies. The Naval section of the Student Army Training Corps, in which were included men looking forward to commissions in the Navy, comprised 225 students organized as a single company. The B section, or Signal Corps, had 556 students at the time of demobilization. Adding to these the commanding officers. Major Harold H. Flower. Captain Harry J. Fee and thirty-nine second lieutenants for the A section. Captain John H. Cunt and six lieutenants for the Signal Corps, as well as the non-commissioned officers and the medical staff of the Army, it can be seen that the College had a military personal of nearly two thousand. The organizing of the military instruction in harmony with the academic requirements of the College had just progressed to the point where excellent results were becoming evident when the Armistice was signed and the Students' Army Training Corps were ordered to be demobilized. Very promptly the college established a short winter term of eight weeks, beginning Decemlier 10. Students were allowed to carry one-half as many credits as those usually contemplated for a full length term, and the Faculty arranged to give some credit for work done under the S. A. T. C. plan of study. With the o| ening of the February term the College of the City of New York was back to its pre-war basis, and with very little academic loss because of the interrupted Fall term. Very rapidjy were the mess halls dismantled and sleeping-quarters changed back to their pre-war con- dition. construction of the new barracks adjoining Compton Hall wtis stopped, and the Ixrtli Building was sublet to the United States Motor Transport Corps. The rapidity with which the college mobilized for war was equal- led by the celerity with which it returned to its jieacc organization. Besides these direct activities which were common to all colleges, our College had certain other war ex- periences which may be of interest. It is always pleasant to reflect upon what might have been. In Scptcmlicr of 1918 the U. S. A. Medical Corps at the Port of New York, working with the College authorities, planned to utilize the entire College plant as a hospital. After some negotiation an arrangement was worked out whereby the Army might have the large Main Building for hospital purposes, while the College would confine its activ- ities to the other buildings and leased space. It was thought that .the use of our building, for this purpose might relieve the Army at a time of serious distress in the matter of caring for wounded men, and that future students might look back with pride at the real sacrifice which their institution had made. Although the College was willing to make this sacrifice, the medical department of the Army found-the pressure less than if had supposed so that it was unnecessary to act upon the patriotic suggestion of the College. During the month of October. 1918, the Signal Corps requested the Director of the Vocational Division to care for a body of two thousand men. At the same time the War Department Committee on Education and Special Training asked him to care for the instruction of a large body of tojiographical draughtsmen, surveyors, airplane mechanics, and gas engine men. The Trustees approved plans which would have involved the leasing of a complete hotel in the neighborhood of Van Cortland Park, and of acquiring property of enormous size near the College. However, lieforc the War Depart- 15 incut could gather together the persons who were to he instructed, peace rumors were current, preparations were held in abeyance, and finally, at the signing of the Armistice, the whole matter was dropped. In co-operation with the Vocational Division of the College the Alliance Francaisc conducted courses in spoken French in tile various armories throughout the city. These courses were designed to give the men of the regiments a s| cakiiig knowledge of French within the short time preceding their orders to sail. Professor Downer, who is also President of the Alliance Francaise in New York, took a personal interest in the matter and taught two of the courses himself. Me also prepared for the National Security league a handy volume for the instruction of soldiers in French. Our college was one of the charter mcmliers of the American University Union in Europe. This organi- zation established the Union houses in Paris, and later one in I-ondon. Here, among other American colleges, it found a simple club and home. In the Union houses were established information bureaus which kept the ones at home informed concerning the others “over there.” The College participated in every conceivable war activity. Though we shall probably never have correct statistics concerning the numbers of men from the College who entered active service, the figures given out at the time of the Alumni Dinner may Ik of interest. Of students leaving courses at the College conducted by the Day Session, the Evening Session and the Vocational Division to enter the Army and Navy active service, there were 1.779. The Alumni in active service were 956. The Faculty in active service were 37. The students en- listed and in training at the College at the time of demobilization were 1.927. making a grand total for the whole College in active service, so far as we can learn up to date. 4.701. Besides these there were many students. Facul- ty members, and Alumni who served with the Y. M. C. A., with the Jewish Welfare Board, and the Knights of Columbus and smaller organizations, and many others dropped from ordinary pursuits to take up technical or professional work directly related to the demands of the war. AW shall not attempt here to give a rc| ort con- cerning those killed, those wounded and those who received decorations. This information cannot be given out before the complete returns arc at hand. Of course we cannot close the account of the College in the tcur without some reference to the work of our Alumnus and Trustee. Mr. Bernard M. Baruch, of the War Industries Board. So also arc we proud of the work of our President, Sidney E. Mezes, as chief of the Board of Experts of the Peace Commission. Five members of our Faculty. Professors Stephen Pierce Duggan. I-ewis Freeman Molt, Nelson P. Mead. William Bradley Otis, and Justin Hartley Moore, left this country only last Spring to take up work with the Army Uni- versity in France. I.ikc America as a whole, the American colleges in general and our College in particular took up the challenge of war. conducted themselves heroically and effectively for the duration of the war. and then, when the war was over, set aside those things which were military and quietly rc«urncd to the task of making democracy fit to survive in the world. 16 Site (JnUrijr nf thp fflittj of Nnit $nrk P.EKNAKD M.

Histury nf tlir (Elass nf 1U10 In September, 1915. a few hundred students walked up to the dean’s office at City College and announced tint they were in the field for a college education. The office staff looked them over, thought that they | o$sessed the intelligence of the average freshman, which is pretty close to nothing, and these few hundred from then on to eternity became the class of 1919. A grand and glorious class was good old '19. It had its ups and its downs, its defeats and its victories: but it always remained faithful and stuck to the end. It started its college career against one of tlic strongest classes of the college, '18. The sophs took it as their mission, in life to harass the precious freshman class that had just made its debut at Alma Mater. Oh, those freshman days! ’Wbuld that we sedate old grads could live once more with our former vigor: the care-free days of a freshman. Ivightccn soon found that it had its hands full in taming the new- comers. We soon grew to know each other and to establish our rights as freshmen. Under the guidance of '17 we set the college precedent and seized for ourselves what is now known as Eternity Rock.” Each morning, at half-past eight, wjc assembled there in our Frosh caps and marched boldly on the sophomore-guarded college. These scenes of strife went on till the classic events of the season, the Flag Rush, came along. For ten long minutes we attacked that | o!c doggedly, gamely, resolutely. Time and again our men mounted the heads of our adversaries and soared toward the flag; but the ten minutes | asscd and the flag still waved. Nineteen shared honors equally during the freshman year. We took all the athletic events, especially the basket-ball games. Here was our greatest contribution to the college: we put out the strongest freshman team ever seen on our courts and gave four men to the Varsity. We double-crossed '18 when we ran our feed success- fully at the Hollywood, while two '18 men entertained. One week later, the sophs held their smoker and found to their surprise that the whole frosh class were guests. And so the first year of'19’s stay at college gradually passed and we soon found ourselves saying good- bye for a summer. And. as is the wont of vacations, that one passed hurriedly and when we reassembled on the Campus, we found our Selves much fewer in numbers than when we had said farewell-” The next year was spent largely in taming the freshmen. We found '20 a pretty refractory proposition: but we finally made them learn their place. The youthful point-of-view of our initial year was giving way to a more staid and serious idea of college. Despite this, however, we had as many men come out for our Flag Rush as the freshman class had, though their registration doubled ours. But of that sad event let us say no more— we lost. 32 And then, when ’19 was finishing its sophomore year, the clouds of war began to darken the horizon; in April, the cladi on call sounded and petty and local thoughts were put aside to take up the big job.” Daily the men began to leave college to join the colors and the honor roll, posted outside the dean’s office, began to grow longer. Each day showed that another leading spirit of the ’19 class would be with us no more. The term ended with a grand rush for the farms to help solve the nation’s food problem and incidentally the student’s credit problem. The college was a changed place next year. The air was pervaded with uncertainty. Activities were plan- ned and started, but suddenly the coal order or the draft would cause the postponed sign to be posted. Nineteen during this year ran three projects. One was its how famous formal Junior “Prom” at the Hotel Netherlands another was its inforntal Junior Hop” in the gymnasium, adjudged to be the greatest social success at the college; the last, was that it started work on its “Microcosm”. The ’16 class has been the last to put out a “Mike.” So '19 elected its board and started earnest work to make the book a success. And just when things began to look bright and roseate when '19 was going to end its senior year and. then, enter the service, then, the college towers helmeted the citv with frowning fortress walls. All projects were drop- ped. all plans were changed, as the khaki and blue l ccame the City College colors. The “Rah. Rah. Rah” gave way to the “Tramp. Tramp. Tramp” and ’19 was lost in the rush. Of course, recent observation has proved l cyond the shadow of doubt that the C. C. N. Y. S. A. T. C. ended the war. Hardly.had we accustomed ourselves to Army mess and hammocks of the good ship U. S. S. Lincoln Corridor, when they called the war off and on December 7, we were all given certificates for the sixty dollar dis- charge bonus. We returned to the old-time curriculum and in eight weeks, we made up a term’s work. Poor old February '19 finished its term and very unceremoniously left the college to enter the world. The Upper Senior term of June ’19 saw the college reconstructed. The boys were coming back day by day and the old days were being relived. Nineteen started things off with a brilliant Senior Dance. In fact the Scniot activities of the class, perhaps, have been the most striking of all the four years of activity. ’19 had the class graduation pin adopted by the college as the standard C. C. N. Y. pin. Besides reviving the “Microcosm, ’19 combined the time honored “Numeral Lights” exercises with the Burial of the Curriculum.” After an inspiring program in the Great Hall, the Numeral Lights painting was illuminated and the honorary pall-bearers in cap and gown, bearing the Student Council coffin, led the funeral procession to Eternity Rock, where the chief mourners pronounced eulogies over their pet subjects and with cries of sorrow committed the text-books to ashes It was a picturesque sight to the hundreds of spectators ground around the flickering flames bemoaning the death of their beloved curriculum with the young moon peeping at the strange wailings over the vise of Eternity Rock. But as soon as “tai s’’ was blown over the smoldering embers, all were merry once more and snake danced to the campus where |K)sfmortem rites were celebrated to the patron muse Terpsichore. 33 Commencement morning, the class was inducted into the Alumni Association in the Doremus Lecture Hall by Mr. Lee Kohns. its president, and Thomas W. Churchill. Then followed the academic procession to the Great Hall where the class was sent forth upon its ‘'commencement” in life with sound words of advice from Pres- ident Mezes, who had just returned from his mission as head of The Committee of Experts at the Peace Con- ference. The members of the class parted that evening at a Commencement Banquet at the Cafe Boulevard with words of rousing cheer from Professor Gurthrie, and echoes of Break-up”. Break-down”, “Integrity” were heard throughout the evening. A permanent alumni class organization was effected. So passes good old Nineteen from the walls of Alma Mater. Four years, though they may seem long, are but a dream when we look back upon them. But a pleasant dream it was. As Nineteen leaves Alma Mater, it turns back otic moment to gaze affectionately at the home of its best four years and then sets forth on its life’s work with love and affection in its heart for City College. In later years, may we all return, richer by our experience, to live again the scenes of youth in hours of reminiscences and to sing again the glories of Nineteen. (fUaea JJiifm of lillil Farewell.

Of course, the corrupt ele- ment of the class offered us many favors, but these were all rejected with scorn and contumely. So. we ate and drank for a week without much personal expense and, then, arrived at this decisionone vote for each member of the class, two votes for exceptional members, and no more than three votes for anybody. The results showed S. N. Cohen to be Best Student, with Orliansky a close second. George M. Hyman was declared Most Popular by the decisive majority of one. The honor of the Shimmy Shoes was intrusted to our Dancing Demon. “Mortic Wilpon. Almost everybody in the class ran in the Handsome Harry” contest, but ‘‘Artie” Asher managed to get some other vote besides his own. The line forms on the right, girls. Stan” Tunick came in as Flashiest Dresser. Some envious ones claim that he is a flash : but we know that his checked suit must have been the result of an explosion. Harvey” Marks was crowned Queen of the May, for he is loved by the ladies.” The Hardest Worker is our editor, Mike” Goldberg, and lie deserves the honor. But, dare we say that lie also deserves the next honor to which he was unanimously elected: namely, Biggest Politician? All great men have jealous enemies. Console yourself with this. Lionel S.

Y. which during its stay has earned a reputation that is a great credit not only to itself but to the college as a whole. A class is known by its deeds, and by these, 1920 has come to be recognized as one of the most sportsmanlike, most active, most representative and dignified class in the college. That is why loyal '20 men arc justly proud of their achievements. 1920 started its athletic activities in September 1916 by issuing a challenge to the sophs in the form of Ruby’s specially cultivated beard. The scraps that ensued in the alcoves and on the Campus completely proved '20's superiority even in the matter of bearded freshmen. This was manifested in the Flag Rush when 1919. although slightly outnumbering the freshmen, quickly succumlK'd to the furious onslaughts and the superior tactics of 1920. The Tug-of-War contests gave '20 the wel- come opjK rtunity of wiping the Stadium with the weakened sophomores. It was nothing now but '|x or soph beaten to a frazzle.’ Freshman athletics flourished. Our basket-ball team had a very successful season, among its victims being our 1919 friends and tho freshman teams of Rutgers. St Johns, and Stevens. 1920 carried off the honors in the intcrclass track meet. Our cross-country team made a truly remarkable record, which, up to the present time has not been equalled, by winning everyone of its matches with the New York City high schools. 1920’s social affairs during the present year were cpoc-making in their success.

Greatly diminished in numbers. 1920 returned next fall to give battle to the incoming class of 1921. Out- numbering us by 100 men and by employing our original flying wedge formation of the previous year. '21 was easily able to win the Flag Rush. We retaliated by pulling '21 off its feet in the Tug-of- Var matches subjecting the class to a bath at the hands of the Juniors and Seniors, who were directing the hose across the center line. We celebrated Columbus Day by lxrating them in baseball. In the Fresh-Soph track meet. '20 continued its victorious streak. These contests conclusively showed that '20 by far out-classed '21. Interclass track honors again went to the '20 class, and we also came away victorious in the intcrclass swim- ming tournament. 58 Of all the social affairs of the Sophomore year, none was more successful than the '20-'21 Peace Banquet. This banquet will long be remembered as a classic by those who were fortunate enough to l c present. The war record of the class of 1920 is indeed glorious. From the very outbreak of the war. many of our men answered duty's call, until by October 1918, 86 | crcent of our class were in the military forces of the country, both here and overseas. Considering that of the remaining 14 percent may had been rejected for physical unfitness, the showing of our class was an enviable one. Although a winter session was held in the college immediately after the demobilization of the S. A. T. C.. student activities were not reorganized until the opening of the spring term in February 1919. Not every one had returned. Still every departure, although it narrowed our circle, tended to unite more closely those of us that were left. 1920. now the smallest class in the college, determined to make the best out of what was left of its Junior year. The biggest affair during the past term was our Junior Hop. This event marked the height of the spring social season, which was an extraordinary one, dances taking place week after week for a long time. The Junior Hop of the class of 1920, by its many innovations, broke precedent and will set the style for sim- ilar affairs for many years to come. To show the versatility of '20 men and incidentally to advertise our Junior Hop. the journalists, col- umnists. artists and poets of the class edited a '20 Camf us which was judged by competent critics to be one of the very best of the term. 'Hie fact that ’20 is continually losing men means added responsibility for those who remain in the effi- cient management of the class and the maintenance of its ideals. '20 will be at the helm of the college this com- ing year—and all indications point to a year of unprecedented activity; the biggest year in the history of the class and of the College. 59 ffllass of 1021 February Charles W.

Spirit is the motive power in college life—the fervent animation and pride in its glory that gives to the College the biggest corner in the heart of man. Spirit makes for zealous activity, keen competition, and origi- nal enterprise, and these constitute the scholastic fabric. 1921 is famed throughout the College for its impetuous vigor, its head long spirit that carries all before it as an irresistible tidal wave. Its men have engaged in all fields of College activity—the newspapers, the teams, the societies. With one exception the Varsity basket-ball team is coni|)oscd of men of 1921 ; and so with Baseball. Track. Swimming. Chess and Tennis. In our Freshman year our Basket-ball five emerged from a fifteen game session with but one loss—to the West Point Plebs. Time and again the lion’s share of banners fell to us. and it was only through non-participation of our Varsity men that we were finable to put up our old time front this season. A brief review of our Freshman year will not be amiss—though to our Classmen it will Ik- quite unneces- sary. The happy times of Fresh-Soph activities will always l c borne in our memories, and will bide with us. forever undimmed. Can we forget the days, when, with temporary misgivings, we first entered our alcoves; when, with characteristic good will we fought the Sophs, and sometimes the College, and always our indomitable spirit triumphed, and battered down the opposition? Can we forget our night-prowlings when we sought to break up Soph hazings, and when occasionally we succeeded? Can we forget how we painted Eternity Rock, how we bat- tled in the Push Ball, how we hauled the Sophs completely around the Campus in the Tug-of- Var, ami how, finally, we won the Flag Rush, and thereby trampled tradition and ’20 underfoot? These are precious bits of memory that have grown with us intimately, and they can not lx: long removed from our thoughts, and then, the jolly old Stag in Webb Room last May where a bigger assembly gathered than had ever graced a King Cole, and where good fellowship held us in sway throughout the evening. And the Fresh Feed, where we had first come together as a class, and discovered wltat a fine group we were, and the Soph Smoker that served as a reunion of the class when it had been broken up by the S. A. T. C. To only the younger men who were com- pelled to attend sessions at the Commerce Building was the sweet of Sophomore existence and activity per- mitted. Well did they carry on the traditions of the College and the class, and well did the Freshmen came to fear and respect the name and power of ’21. The Soph Smoker was not jointly engineered, but invitations were extended by the downtown men to their brothers in the S. A. T. C. and they responded to a man. It was a high old time we had at the Smoker, and the only regret was that no Freshmen appeared to mingle in the festive spirit. In the past semester we centered our activities on a Dansant we had projected. It was a difficult affair to manage, particularly as three other Dances were being conducted, and ours was billed for the last. Never- theless. the task was prosecuted with unalloyed vigor. The Gym. on the evening of the affair was unrecogniza- ble in the atmosphere of geniality and scenic beauty that transformed it. The 1921 Dansant was pronounced the most enjoyable dance of the season by those who had also participated in the other. Financially it netted over 02 a hundred dollars. By unanimous decision of the Council this money is being banked as a trust fund, the interest accruing to Ik- awarded annually for excellence in some branch of scholastic work. To what subject or activity it will l e devoted has not yet been divulged. 1921 has the distinction of inaugurating the practice of intendas� debates. The first debate of the year was between '21 and '22. on the question of the extent ion of the manda- tory principle to Armenia. Despite the evident balance of the teams, the decision was unanimously awarded to the '21 team, consisting of Under. Kliscu. and Altschuler. So now, for a s|x� cc, the history of 1921. must end. lint soon it will Ik- resurrected, and more achievements for the College, and more glory for the class will be registered. We have j Kissed ship-sha|K through the initial stages of our sojourn in the College, and much more remains for our willing hands to carry through. There shall be a vast harvest of glory that we shall sow, and C. C. N. Y. shall reap all honor and fame from our labors. 93 February Kbvib Schwartz Abraiiam W. Hurstkin Lou Sussman .

College building on 23rd Street. No other class, since the erection of the “Castle on the Hill. may justly claim the distinction of having lived a part of its college life in what was known, in days gone by, as the Free Academy. Too young to join with the other classes as members of the S. A. T. C. unit. '22 was exiled to the down- town building. A Freshman class, without advisers, separated from College atmosphere, from the men. who were to acquaint it with College spirit and College tradition. '22 entered the sombre halls with an equally sombre outlook. Soon came the realization that instead of being unfortunate, the class was really afforded a marked distinc- tion. The realization that within these crumbling walls men, whose names are now synonomous with College tradi- tion. had studied : that customs Mill in vogue at the new College, had their origin in the old : that of the professors uptown, many had assembled in these same rooms as students; that professors whose memory is now highly revered had lectured under the same roof; brought forth the latent spirit to do its share and help preserve the traditions of the College. Its Isartles were fought there. It won and lost. The class organization was successfully begun and completed there. The Freshmen Feed was a great success. It returned to the College fully initiated as City College men. ready to take their pro| er place in the sphere of activity. Of this distinction, 1922 is justly proud. 64 OFFICERS OF 1922.

From the day the class of 1923 stcp| cd within the walls of the College of the City of New York four months ago. it not only told, hut showed every other class the way. winning every inter-class meet and capturing every banner offered. W ithin this short time it has developed victorious track, basket-ball and swimming teams, and is so strongly organized and full of spirit, that it bids fair to ljccomc the most powerful class in the College. Tile reasons for this exceptional strength arc manifold. First, the class excells in numbers. 1923 brought in four hundred students. Filtering after the war and after the S. A. T. C. the great number of students was but a natural result. Yet this is only half of its strength, for in September another host is coming to reinforce these already here. The second reason is its officers. The proof of the wise choice made by its members is conclusively shown by the efficient administration of the officers. In this shorr time ’23 has had a Smoker, has organized its members and has participated in all activities. College and Class. This is due to the aggressiveness of its president, Bernard Katzen. uj on whose shoulders rested the moulding together of a motley assortment of unacquainted, disorganized Freshmen. What the future holds in store for them is yet to be seen. But if they continue following the path which they have set out upon, there is no doubt but the College of the City of New York will l e proud of them. Sljp $nuikrr Some affair, we’ll tell the world! Two hundred Freshmen and visitors tilled Hammond Hall and enjoyed a wonderful Saturday night. Sandwiches, pop. and cigarettes were had in abundance along with songs by little Pat Rooney and jazz by that master pianist. Joe Santlcv. Jokes rattled, corks popped, and the crowd, having entered into the spirit of the occasion, enjoyed every minute of the grand and glorious evening. 66 OFFICERS OF 1923. H. Rabinowitz, A. Sclimcl. S.

The award of the Interclass Track Banner was the signal for added shouting and cheering. But we must not pass over little Pat Rooney so easily. Little Pat is one of Vaudeville’s most versatile juvenile entertainers. Joe Santley. of Santlcy and Norton, at the piano in popular songs, was also very entertaining. Aside from having a very melodious voice, Mr. Santley showed his wares by singing one of his latest songs “Friends,” which scored an immediate “hit.” The crowd broke up at a late hour and put a head on the occasion, by hilariously “snaking” down 125th St. to the tune of 1-9-2-3. C.-C.-N.-Y. iB auk c tint 11 Basketball. C. C. N. Y.'s major sport found hearty support in the memliers of the ’23 class. Not only in actual attendance at the game, but in the manner in which they developed a championship team. In the first game of the season 1923 trounced 1921 by the score of 18-11. This victory was unexpected in that ’21’s was rated as a very strong team. But to prove that the Freshmen had an invincible combination they defeated '19 in a close game by a score of 12-11 and followed it by taking the Sophs into camp to the tunc of 10-4. At this point in the tournament George Aaron. ’23's i owcrful guard left school, weakening the team tem- porarily to such an extent that they lost to '20 in a hard fought game by the score of 10-6. The loss of this game resulted in a tie between ’21 and '23. In the exciting and thrilling game that followed the Freshmen led by the attack of Happy” Halpem defeated 1921 by the close score of 15-14. Fach memlicr of the team starred.

Though the Freshman had not worn off their greenness, they beat the upper Freshmen corraling forty-tree points, which more than doubled their nearest competitor ’22. ’23 started off with a rush, capturing all places in the eight-pound shot put.” “Bernie” Katzen. the Presi- dent. heaved the weight with all the force of his right arm and took first place. “Hen” Rabinowitz took second, with Mac” Klein close behind him. 68 THE CLASS OF 1923. In the hundred yard dash, “Syd Prerau took first after a neck to neck race. When the two hundred and twenty yard final was called for, Syd” Davis and Dave” Becker of '23 toed the mark. Although he made a slow start, “Syd” Davis captured second place with Becker close at his heels. In the four hundred and forty yard dash Shaefifer took second place after a hard fought race. Not being used to the track Schaef” could not make the turns speedily enough, hut he did his best and added three points to the score. The half-mile was a closely contested race and I.aeey” Bonyay only lost at the finish to a Varsity man. In the two-mile Wyderwitz took second, bowing only to “Mac Ross, captain of the Varsity. Georgic” Aaron, our diminutive all-round star, easily took first place in the pole vault. Red Fass took third after vainly trying to put a hole in the flt or by his falls. The high jump saw another five points added to our score. Rogers, our elongated jumper, cleared the bar, victor after a nip and tuck contest with a '20 man. uritstmittg On May 8. C. C. N. Y. held its far-heralded swimming meet. Before an audience that filled the natatorium, a large number of human fishes” sought to gain the honors of the day for their respective classes. '23 was there. In fact, it showed it was there to such an extent that the meet practically resolved itself into an elimination contest between '23 amphibians. After the slaughter was over, '23 had amassed 41 points while its nearest competitor.” '20. had scored but 9. Among the shining lights of the crack'23 team were Lehrnian, Mullen. Mcycrcs, Glynn, Phyllias and Essncr. The result of the meet showed that '23 has by far the strongest class team and is practically in line for capturing many future meets. 70 1023 JferBmtalfi ani JUte? (Erarka (Bought and Paid For.)

Y. in 1903 the Student Council has been the representative governing body of the students of the college. Through its regular sessions on the first and third Fridays of the month and its various subsidiary committees it has been enabled to work for the welfare of City College to such a marked degree that the faculty has expressed its appreciation in the official bulletin for 1919. The first task of the Student Council during the Spring semester was to establish activities on a pre-war basis. This meant a complete re-organization as though the college were to l egin its life all over again, although a few activities had been maintained by the Student Council at the Twenty-third Street Building during the war. An adjustment to reconstruction conditions was necessary. One of the first problems was the physical rehabili- tation of the buildings. A new and enlarged lunch room was o| ened under faculty and Student Council supervision. The Co-ojier- ativc Book Store was rc 0| encd i� permanent quarters in room 16 A. permitting of the display of a large variety o: merchandise. A great improvement has been made both in the Lunch Room and the Co-op.” Store, but further advantages arc to lie derived from increased financial sup| ort. Employment bureau and the Student’s Aid licgan work over again and the Alcove Committee re-assigned the Class and Society Alcoves and the organization bul- letin lioards in the concourse. The men who had been in service were welcomed back to the college in a monster Welcome Home Assembly, at which the S. A. T. C. students sat by Companies and the overseas and commissioned officers graced the Great Hall platform. Lieutenants Holton and Coulton and Private Healey were among the speakers. At the remaining Student Council assemblies Professor Chase of the Art department told his experiences in painting the dougli- l oys and generals in France and Walter Lippman gave an outline of the Political Science at the Peace Conference. At the latter assembly Student Council and Athletic Association Insignia were awarded. This year the Charter Day exercises, at which Dr. Finley spoke were combined with the revived High School Day. A Fa- culty-Senior baseliall game was arranged for the afternoon and the Soph Skull men were formed to show the high seliool visitors about the buildings. This is a custom which should lie vigorously carried out in the future years as it gives the high school men a true understanding of City College. It was found that not much good could come of Fresh-Soph activities in the Spring term, so a Fresh- Soph committee was appointed to lay plans for the Fall. There was a marked tendency, however, to unite the February and June, classes under one class organization. 74 The annual Finley Hike was held in May. A committee was appointed to raise subscriptions to the Victory Liberty Loan and a substantial bond was bought by the students, which was donated toward the C. C. N. Y. Library-Social House Fund. The Student Council Soiree was held at the City College Club, where extra-cur- ricular activities were discussed. Mr. Rurchard was the principal sj)eaker. The Discipline and Student Affairs committees co-operated with the faculty with the usual effectiveness. Perhaps the most important work of the Student Council this term was in reviving the Microcosm, the Lavender Book, and the Varsity Play. The result of the work of the Microcosm committee with Meyer Gold' berg at its head, you have before you. The Lavender Book will be given to Union members and will till a long felt want of the college, being a distinct improvement over the previous Lavender Book. The Varsity Play is an institution that does much to add to the reputation of C. C. N. Y.. should be carefully planned, and should Ik the work of many months of preparation. Notable this term has l een the absence of factionablc politics in the Student Council, so detrimental to extra-curricular activities. The spirit during the past year has been that solely of service to C. C. N. Y.. Let this policy continue in the future and the work of the Student Council will be unlimited in its possibilities for true service and unselfish devotion to the fame and glory of Alma Mater. fctu rnt (EuutirU 3tt0ujttta Awarded to the students who as undergraduates have done most for the College of the City of New York in extra-curricular activities.

The Athletic Association, The Student Council, the Class Organizations. The Campus, and the College Mercury, formed the C. C. N. Y. Union. The U” entitles its members to all privileges to the above organizations, and its members dues are divided according to the needs of these organizations. By subscribing to these activities at one time, the delay and expense of solicitation for membership is eliminated and the circulation of the periodicals becomes more efficient. A student who is not a member of the Union is ineligible for any and all extra curricular activities. 76 Ci.hr Alumni Amuuiatinn uf tlir ffiullrijc uf tlje (Eitij uf Nrui fork (Incorporated) Leo Kohns, '84 ...

Its work began among the medical stu- dent who were studying and living near I-exington Avenue and Twenty-eighth Street. Gradually, however, many of the downtown schools moved their quarters uptown, until today, instead of having one large student center there are five or six in the city. Thus it was necessary tor the Intercollegiate to follow the schools in their northward march, and to organize in each a Christian Association that would care for the religious work in the various centers. The old Club House at 129 Lexington Avenue still remains the center of the religious work in that section of the City, and, little by little, other buildings have been secured to promote and house the work in other student centers. In addition to the eight Undergraduate Associations, there has gradually been built up a work for spe- cial students; the Preparatory School IXpartmcnt for School boys. The Graduate Department for Alumni corn- ing to New York for business, the Industrial Service Department for Engineering Students, and the. Cosmopol- itan Club for Foreign Students. The main purpose of the Associations is to develop men. This end is obtained through Bible Study Classes, the Deputations, and Social Service. In addition, many dinners arc held each semester, and opportunities given to '‘get acquainted” with the professors and the fellows. Our membership is composed of Alumni ami Associates; the latter divided into Active and Contributing Members. Dues arc one dollar a year. The members are bound together in a common purpose for the welfare of their fellow students and their College.—to foster Christian ideals and character.—to promote the ideal of social service.—to uphold by word of mouth as by personal example the honor of our Alma Mater.—to band together in a common social bond all those men whose acceptance of the above principles shows a desire to join the Association and to work for a greater har- mony and union among the societies of the lavender ‘‘triangle.” namely the Newman Club.

Corresponding Secretary When the year opened and the Menorah Society saw that the bayonet was to replace the text-book in the City College curriculum, it was felt that the Menorah’ function would have to be altered. The library, consisting of more than 300 volumes, was moved up-stairs and the alcove, where once men argued out the burning problems of the world, became the mess-ball of hungry sergeants. The Menorah realized that it had a great opportunity to further the Jewish feeling among the student sold- iers and it decided to co-oj)cratc with Mr. Magui, the Jewish Welfare Hoard representative at the college, and Mr. Burchard. of the Y. M. C. A. Every Friday evening Doremus HaU was filled to the doors with men in kakhi and in blue. Leon Licbrcich was the official cantor and in beautiful tenor tones he led a most beautiful and touching service. Rabbis Solomon. Cohen, Fricdlandcr. Mr. Burchard and Major Flower delivered lectures. With the return of the college to a peace-time basis, the Menorah immediately took up its work again. Co- operating with the Zionist Society, a joint educational committee was formed. The annual classic the Menorah Prize Essay excited keen interest this year. The limiting of the essay to five subjects of a general nature, with the ample bibliography afforded by the Menorah library was reported by the Committee, consisting of Louis M. Levitzky. '20, and Fred Sommers. '19. to be eminently successful. The prize of one hundred dollars, awarded at Commencement, was given by the Hon. Bernard M. Baruch. '89. 84 THE MEXORAH SOCIETY.

Plans for the annual dinner were cancelled. Nevertheless, a smoker was held in the Webb Room in November which was well attended by the members of the Army and Navy units. After the disbanding of the S. A. T. C., however, an informal dance was held in the gymnasium on Feb- ruary 21st. Many of the boys home from overseas were present. On March 9. the first Sunday in Lent, the Club received Holy Communion in a body at the Church of the Blessed Sacrament. After the mass a breakfast was held at the Motel Margrave. With the return of the 27th and 77th divisions and the 69th (Irish) Regiment many more of our heroes resumed their activities at the college. In their honor another informal dance was held in the gymnasium on May 9th. On May 15. The Federation of Catholic Clubs held an informal dance at Delmonicos. Clubs from all over the country were represented. Asa windup of the college year, a smoker was held in the Webb Room on Saturday. June 21. Professor Coleman (without whom there would lx- no Newman Ciub). gave a short sketch of the life of the club and proph- esized greater success for the future. The formation of the Evening Session Newman Club was started under the auspices of the Day Session Club during early days of March, 1919. The new Club held its constitutional meeting on April eleventh—clearly too late in the term to allow of a great expansion, but an event notable enough to lx recorded in its history. In fact, neither religious nor social gatherings took place, but the efforts of all were bent on trying to gain members, of whom there are eighteen at present. Quite a good prosjxct lies ahead of the Club, however, and it is confidently expected that during the next two terms this organization will both increase in strength and attain the realization of its purpose. 86 THE NEWMAN CLUB. 31 (Eirroln Bant Alighieri “O noble heritage of Italy infused with strong American ideals.' ■a (Qfttcrrti Spring J.

These rash students, inspired by their love for polemics, met secretly outside the college. It was the survival of the fittest, indeed. On June 1st. 1919. members and pul members of the Clionia Literary Society met to celebrate the seventy years of the society’s existence. Gloriously indeed had Clio stood the test of time, the test of interest, and the test of love and recollection. Julius Lichtenstein. 81 acted as Toastmaster.

In its long history stretching hack sixty-seven years, many illustrious men have inscribed their names on its membership ledger. The most prominent is that of Colonel Gocthals, constructor of the Panama Canal. Indeed the number of world-famous scientists, artists, dramatists, and poets spell legion. Who has not heard of the playwright. Louis Anspacher; the poet, Arthur Guitcrman; the novelist, Upton Sinclair: the musical leader. Wal- ter Damrosch: the historian, John Bach McMastcr;and the financier. Bernard M. Baruch? And from among our faculty such names need only l c mentioned, as Professors Downer. Duggan, and Hartmann, to indicate the mettle of Phrenocosmia. The undergraduate members of the Society arc proving themselves worthy of their forbears. Phreno- cosmia made up for last year’s defeat at the hands of Clionia. by defeating her in the time-honored debating classic this semester—thus re-establishing Phrcuo’s lead by three debates. Phrenocosmia may indeed look hack with pride at her past record. But. with the influx of new blood the overflowing condition of her treasury, and the zeal ot the frequently visiting alumni, the future holds in store for hfcr a golden promise. Theodore Liciitman.

In 1891. we next hear of this group of players pro- ducing Little I.ord Fauntleroy,” a burlesque on a play of that name. A jieriod of several years’ inactivity fol- lowed, and we have no record of affairs histrionic until, in 1910. a l� ody of undergraduate students organized and produced “The Heir at Law and “The Rivals,” with tremendous success. In 1914 dramatics, as an extra-curricular activity in the College, became practically extinct again, making a last struggle for life in 1917 with the production of Goldsmith’s “She Stoops to Conquer.” and remained thus through the period of the war and the S. A. T. C. In May 1919. their efforts resulted in the production of four one-act plays, instead of a single play ot several acts, and the presentation was attended with remarkable success. “The Crimson Flower” by Harry I. Shumway, “The Sweeps of '98. by John Masefield. “The I-ost Silk Hat” by Lord Dunsany, and “The I .one Stone” were the plays presented, the last of which was written by a student of the College. Francis Edwards Faragoh. and was publishes! in a previous issue of “College Mercury.” The Society was particularly fortunate in securing the services of Miss Muriel Hope, the prominent actress, who coached the I.OSt Silk Hat.” 94 THE DRAMATIC SOCIETY.

It was felt that the numerous problems of a political and social nature which had arisen needed consider- ation which could not be given them in any class room, and that the Civic Club would provide a means for the pres- entation of such problems. The aim of the Civic Club is to set forth an impartial and intelligent view, and in the past semester it has succeeded in having various speakers address its meetings. 99 Ztmtiat iwictij X. S.

De II. Kaufman Melvin S. Brotman . President Vice-President The Ccrclc Jusse rami is a society of the students of the College of the City of New York, founded for the purpose of furthering the student in his desire to continue his acquaintance with the French language and spirit outside of the class room. It thus meets squarely the complaint of the student that he has no opportunity to indulge in practice in an interesting fashion and in accordance with his own ideas of utility and pleasure. Several times during the term, theatre parties are arranged to see French dramatics at the Theatre du Vieux Colombicr. where the student has an opportunity to appreciate from the histrionic angle what he has studied in the class room. In addition, from time to time members of the faculty of the College arc invited to give lectures on vital subjects. During the past term. Prof. Weill on Alsace-Lorraine and Prof. Downer on Internationalism spoke to capacity audiences eager to imbibe these messages of French culture and characteristics. The society also sent its president as representative to the Conference of the Alliance Francaisc of America. At this function resolutions of extreme sympathy were drawn up over the demise of Prof. Louis Delamarrc. which are echoed by the members of the Cercle. who keenly realize their great loss in the death of so good a friend of the society. The French Department recently unveiled a huge portrait of Profcssoi Delamarrc and his memory will continue to live in the hearts of all who knew him. Great possibilities are entertained for the future of the club. 101 (UuUegp (SIp? (£lub The College Glee Club was organized by Professoi Baldwin in the Fall of 1907, it then being known as the College Choral Society. Its membership has been limited to students in College classes. Its first public apjJcarancc was at a concert with the College Orchestra, given in May 1908, as a part of the exercises in connection with the dedication of the College buildings. At this concert a Cantata, Wisdom,” written for the occasion by Professor Baldwin, was sung. Since then the Glee Club has co-operated with the College Orchestra at all annual concerts, and has been heard at Assemblies and on other special occasions. The main purpose of the organization is to encourage as many of the College men as possible to sing. Any one with a fair voice and the will to work is welcome. Such a nun will be a help to the Club, and will find the Club a help to him. The intimate acquaintance with much good music, which comes from singing or playing in any such organization, opens new vistas to the student, and is an incalculable aid to the aj prcciation of good music of all kinds. The Glee Club will resume its activities in the Fall of 1919. (EnlUgr ©rrljpstra The present organization was formed in the Fall of 1907. u|x n the coming of Professor Samuel A. Bald- win to the College, with the opening of the new buildings. Membership in the organization has been open to stu- dents of the College and capable Townsend Harris Hall students as well. During these years much valuable work has been done. On the programs of the annual concerts will be found such works as Beethoven’s 1st. 5th, and 6th Symphonies: Haydn’s “Oxford” Symphony: Mozart’s Sym- honics in C and R flat: Schubert’s “ Unfinished Symphony: Overture to “Don Giovanni. Mozart Overtures to Prometheus and a| ostople “Coriolanus. Bcctltoven; Overtures to “Der Frcischiitz” and “Furyanthe”. Weber; Overture to Rosamude. Schubert: Overture to Ruy Bias. Mendelssohn; and many lesser works by Tschaikow- sky. Massenet. Gounod. Boicdicu, N’icode. Ncvin and others. The activities of the S. A. T. C. during the past season interfered with the work of the orchestra, and owing to a late start no concert was given. The work will l e undertaken with renewed vigor in the Fall of 1919. and with the sincere co-opcration of the student body it is hoped that it may be greatly expanded and strengthened 102 (Cant;uts Staffs Editor Seaman George M.

THE CAMPUS A WEEKLY JOURNAL THE COLLEGE OF THE CITY OF NEW YORK Vol. 25 No. 1. THE CAMPUS. SEPTEMBER 15. 1919 Price. Three Cents EXTRA! THE 1919 MICROCOSM HERE AT LAST. JOIN THE ••UNION'1 AND GET THE 1920 LAVENDER BOOK. The Campus, in the twelve years of its existence, has earned for itself the distinction of being the most potent unifying influence of the College. Published regularly, week after week, it records accurate and concise reports of all college events. Thru the instrumentality of The Campus, the student body is thus kept informed; the alumni have the College brought to their very door; and both the undergraduates and the alumni are welded together by the inseverable bond of a mutual love for that institution which sounds the clarion call for Democracy in higher education, I The general effect of the war on the colleges was to put a damper on all extra-curricular activities; the coming of the S. A. T. C. practically did away with student activities. This was the case in C. C. N. Y. with but one happy exception: The Campus. Not only did The Campus manage to exist, but it flourished as it had never up to that time. Under the editorship of Seaman George M. Hyman and with Corporal Dick Tocplitz as business manager. The Campus did things that made everyone sit up and take notice. The following were a few of the achieve- ments of the S. A. T. C. period: The Campus was one of the very first pajxrr in the country to appear from an S. A. T. C. college: eight and ten page issues were common, when previously a. four page sheet was the rule: the company issue idea originated and was carried out with great success; cartoons galore were contributed by home talent; practically a hundred per cent circulation was attained; and unusual business activity and pros- |ierity made The Campus financially comfortable. Such was the glorious record that The Campus of the S. A. T. C. left behind, when it sus| endcd publication for a few weeks after the disbanding of the college’s war units. This was done to allow the members of the staff to adjust themselves to academic conditions. During the Winter Session The Campus made its appearance primarily to atutouncc the coming of the C. C. N. Y. “Union and to give the 23rd St. men a chance to express themselves in print. 106 George M. Myman was again editor and Abraham W. Burstcin, managing editor, and Stanley B. Tunick returned to take over the business management of the paper. In spite of the vast improvement of The Campus luring the S. A. T. C. period, even greater progress was made during the Spring Term. A permanent art department was organized, and as a result, not a single issue during the past term failed to have at least one cartoon. The company issue” idea was followed up by the class issues of the '22 and '20 classes. An exchange department was also established. Among other benefits of the exchange system, C. C. X. Y. gets country-wide publicity through The Campus. The leading college papers arc on The Campus exchange list, which is constantly growing. Another humorous and personals column by Leigh Sandford was started to supplement Gargoyle Gargles.” As usual the Alumni issue appeared every month. The corres- pondence columns have been given much attention and now provide a real forum for the exchange of college opinion. The work of the circulation staff was greatly reduced, as the “Union” guaranteed the circulation. The business department, with a very able head and capable assistants, accomplished progress unheard of in the history of the pa| cr, leaving at the end of the season a substantial sum to the credit of The Cavipus. The Campus has come to be the most successful extra-curricular institution in the college. Outside of the college it has earned the reputation of being one of the very best college papers at any price, and has been rated the best college weekly in the East. It has received high praise by the government for the part it played in Lil crty Loan and other advertis- ing campaigns. To those who in the fall will direct the destinies of the paper, the message of the outgoing statt is “Carry On.” 107 Issued editorial Council I sidor Schneider Francis Edward Farago Auraiiam W.

Bux m After an enforced rest of almost a year. College Mercury reappeared in March of this year with all the glory of former years. The adoption of the Union” guaranteed a circulation greater than ever l eforc. I lowevcr. in view of other existing conditions, and by maintaining a very high standard and paying particular attention to form. College Mercury did not manage to keep free from debt. This deficit was made up by the profits of a very successful Mercury Dance. The Cap and Bells” number which appeared in June is considered by many, one of the best issues of Mercury in its history. The institution of an Editorial Council, which accepts and rejects all contributions, makes the management of the | apcr more democratic. This is. indeed, a change fot the l etter and assures the contributers and the readers more careful consideration. 108 THE COLLEGE MERCURY STAFF. Win. Sicgd, A. W. Burstein, L. S. Auster, R.

Frank Joseph Q. Jonas Michael Garvey Nat Krinsky Alfred Haas Leo Lehrman Scott Shapiro Soph Skull was founded in 1914. It was the outcome of an idea conceived of by a few members of the T6 class that an honorary society should Ik- organized to stimulate college spirit, to increase and enliven extra- curricular activities, and to reward students who had rendered service to'the College during their freshman and sophomore years. In the spring term of each year the mcmlicrs of Soph Skull elect their successors from the next class: a number not exceeding twenty is chosen, the electors becoming mcmlicrs ex-officio. Mr. I-cwis Sayre Burchard 77. has been made an honorar)' manlier of the organization by the '21 men. Soph Skull men act as ushers at commencement. Varsity shows, Student Council assemblies, and at other College functions. They arc distinguished by the skull-shaped pin and the lavender arm band. 116 A. J. Roscnblum. H. Harsany, A. Haw. S.

Polytechnic Institute ' 143 $Ijp fobium ffloumta The College of the City of New York did a great democratic service in raising the standard of musical appreciation on the part of the American people by providing for the second summer of popular concerts of the Stadium Symphony Orchestra, under the auspices of the Music League of the People’s Institute, of which Adolph Lcwisohn, donor of the C. C. N. Y. Stadium is chairman. Fifty-five concerts at popular prices brought to the College an average attendance of over four thousand persons an evening. Arnold Vo1|m: was the conductor of the Stadium Symphony Orchestra, which was made up of the pick of the Metropolitan Opera and other Symphony orchestras, and among the guest conductors were Gustave St rube of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra, Rene Pollain of Paris, ami Henry Hadley the noted American composer. Among the soloists were Max Rosen, Harold Hauer, Margaret Matzcnaucr. Rosa Ponscllc. Idclle Patterson and a host of other operatic stars and world famed musicians. The Stadium was converted for the purpose from an athletic field into a huge concert theatre, and the effect of the stillness of the starry night with the moon coming up behind the College Tower lent added charm to the music. In case of rain the Stadium Symphony Concerts were held in the Great Hall. Dr. Thomas Storey of the Hygiene Department was on the Field Committee and Ernest Henkel of the Metropolitan Opera House was General Director. AABOARD te At ©fttrrrii George Lbiirman, ’19 J.

Reynolds The- year 1918-1919 marks a | eriod unprecedented in the annals of City College sports history. The conflag- ration which destroyed the prospects of most American institutions for a successful year in the realm ot sports suddenly set on fire the hopes of enthusiasts at the announcement of the Students' Army Training Corps. Many of our most prominent athletes had enlisted and had torn irreparable holes into our very weak squads and this War Department decree resulted in retaining the remaining wearers of the Lavender and saved the College from inevitable suspension of curricular activities for the period of the war. In this period of “storm and stress.” our activities other than the prescribed military duties, were confined mainly to intra-mural games. The manly and sportsmanlike spirit which pervades the military service of Uncle Sam. 152 D. Nasanow, L. Sherman. G. Feifiin. I. Projan, M. C. Ross. G. l.ehmun. J. E. Landis. 153 established itself very deeply within us. Very keenly contested and interesting exhibitions of athletic skill were held, and new material was unearthed. Our basketball team, still retaining the service of Mussy” Holman, who had graduated and of George Schmidt, easily defeated its opponents in the three contests in which it took part. The soccer team, which had established such a remarkable record the previous season, contained its victorious sweep by trouncing Columbia and holding the champion Crescent eleven to a tie. The year becomes doubly iiu| ortant because it marks also the return of the College to pre-war status. The S. A. T. C. had left those who had been in the service with a heritage of increased enthusiasm and interest. The less fortunate individuals who were continuing their academic courses at the old building, in their eagerness to return to our beautiful home on high.” gladly tenderd their aid. together with their student soldier brothers and those who had. returned from the field of conflict and army cantonments, all full of the patriotic zeal of the war period, were united in their determination to make the banner sports season of C. C. N. Y. Whether it was due to poor student leadership, to a lack of material to make up the teams, to indifferent coaching, or to.a sudden tightening of the reins of faculty supervision, who can say? The year hardly turned out to be the success which had so eagerly been planned. All of these drawbacks played parts in the numerous de- feats of an unprecedented year. The basketball team was only left with two veterans and the numerous experiments of shifting men from one position to another, trying out new combinations at each game, handicapped the squad during such a short season. The happy combination was not used until the close of the season and not until many contests, where the decision hung fire until the whistle blew, were lost because of faulty teamwork. In spite of all these difficul- ties hani| cring it. the team captured fifty percent of the encounters, playing eight games, losing two by a single tally, and a third by two points. The tennis team, which is gradually gaining more prestige at our institution, passed through a season of five matches without a defeat. This feat even by a minor sport is deserving of much praise. The men and their manager working in harmony and displaying exceptional skill arc to be complimented. The great storm is over and the college will again resume its pre-war activities; but let us not forget the role athletics has played in the war and keep well in mind the place it has rightfully earned for itself in peace. Amer- ica’s youth has thrived on this pleasurable exercise for half a century. Athletics 'ill continue to play its part in the raising of our manhood. Let us. therefore, hope that the coming years may see an increasing interest dis- played by the faculty, trustees and alumni of the college and great strides made to develop the athletic ability of the individual members of the institution with the idea of creating for ourselves the leadership in American Inter- collegiate sports. 154 1919 in tljp 3Mi� of %torta With the graduation of tlie class of 1919, the college will lose some of the most brilliant individual stars; but these stellar performers receiving their sheepskins aic only a very small part of the class that represented Unvender on the field of sports. The class started its career on the sports arena of the college by smashing tradition. “Tich” and “Dash, ’19 men, played such skillful ball that they made the Vaisity in their first term. In spite of the loss of these court artists, the 19 freshman team turned out to be the most powerful combination wearing the numerals of a freshman class in intercollegiate competition, and passed through the season undefeated. The team consisted of Projan and IJpton, forwards: Miller and I'ricdman, guards; and Lunney, center. Towards the close of the initial season. Projan and Upton made their debut with the Varsity. In the season of 1916-1917, after defeating 1920 by an overwhelming score in the Fresh-Soph game, the 1919 court stars turned their attention to the Varsity. “Tich, Schmidt, and Projan formed a combination that will be the pride of City College sons for many years. In the season of 1918-1919 “Pro was elected captain. During this season another 19 man who had been too modest, heretofore, came into the limelight in the person of McNulty, who performed at guard, and ably substituted for Mussy” Holman. In track, a 19 man was inscribed in the college annuals as a record maker. William Rosenberg, an all-around athlete, of soccer fame, was the first C. C. N. Y. man to take first place at the Penn” games, when he captured the intercollegiate ‘‘hop, step, and jump” event at Philadelphia. Rosenberg was also the metropolitan champion of this event. Other 1919 men starring on tnc cindcrpath were Wcttlcs, who established a record in the short distance run; Murray in the sprints; Mac Fisher, track captain; Henry Cohen in the quarter mile; and Greenberg and Cy Cohen in the distance events. Rosenberg was also a member of the mile relay and established a new record in the Finley Hike. Other 1919 men who distinguished themselves on the field of sports were “Fritzic Bachr, Walter Grasheim, “Marric” Meyer, Mitchell. Auerbach. Sam Shoenberg, “Dave Uebner and George Peppis in the tank. I.cbow became captain of the bascliall nine, with Matthews a member of the same team, and Roberts made his letters on the Soccer team. 155 Manager Sidney Goodfriend, ’20 Forwards Irving Trojan, ’19 William Ball, ’21 6' uards Hyman Fliegel, '20 John F.

It is the only institution in the country where a baccalaur- eate may be obtained through evening work only, without cost to the student. Under the direction of Professor Robinson the Session now has four branches: Main Building. Commerce, Brooklyn, and Municipal Building. Speaking at the Tenth Annual Dinner. Professor Robinson said, Before long the Session will have so increased that it will have a building in every liorough of the City of New York. The registration of the Evening Session has increased tremendously. tu rut Arltnttira 1916- 17. During this year the Council was reorganized, a new constitution adopted, and a plan of action formulated for the guidance of future Councils. The alcoves were opened for the Evening Session students at the request of the Student Organization. The Evening Session Dance, held on March 16th, 1917, at the College Gymnasium, broke the record for attendance at a college function, over three hundred and fifty jicoplc being present. The social spirit at the affair was excellent, and friendships cemented, not only between student and student, but between student and instructor as well. A basketball team was organized in the Session, and in spite of the limited opportunities for practice, suc- ceeded in defeating the 1919 Freshman team at the end of the season. The team was managed by George G. Lake and captained by H. Cohen. Professor Baldwin gave his semi-annual recital for the Evening Session. President Mezes and Mr. Otto IT. Kahn were the guests of honor. The “Evening Star”, the official song of the Evening Session, was particularly well received. The Eighth Annual Dinner was given at the St. Denis on the evening of May 19th. 1917. The affair was very successful. The war activities of this as well as the other years arc taken up under a separate heading. 1917- 18. The aims of the Council for this year were to aid the students in whatever way possible; to bring about a closer connection between the student and the faculty and the college, to arouse a true college spirit and. finally, to gain recognition for the Council. In following these lines the Council was very successful. 177 The Annual Evening Session Dance, held in the College Gymnasium on the evening of January 18th, 1918. broke the record for attendance set by the previous affair, and therefore, of all college affairs. Through the efforts of the Evening Session Student Council, the Gymnasium was reopened for the Even- ing Session students. “The Evening Circle.” a Student Council weekly, was published by that organization. The Editorial Staff of this paper consisted of George G. Lake. Editor-in-Chief. and Leo C. Schwartz and Samuel L. Markowitz. Associate Editors. I-atcr an arrangement was made with the Campus for a page of Evening Session news, edited by a staff of Evening Session men. Leo C. Schwartz was the Editor, and Samuel L. Markowitz was Business Manager. The rest of the staff consisted of Messrs. Harold J. Blackman. Edward P. Shalvcy. Jr.. Morris Grccn- l crg. Stanley Farrell. Joseph M. Levinson. George A.

For the first time in the histon,- of the session, the Brooklyn and Commerce branches were represented. About two hun- dred and twenty-five people were present and enjoyed some excellent speeches as well as the dinner- 1918-19 Because of war conditions and the difficulties of reconstruction, student activities were naturally restricted. However, the Tenth Annual Dinner, held at The Commodore on the evening of June 7th. 1919, was a tremendous success. Over two hundred and seventy-five |)crsons were present, representing the Commerce. Main Building, and Brooklyn Branches. The following were the committees from the various divisions: Commerce: Dennis O’Sullivan, Chairman, Claire Singer. Sam B. Eigen.
