O'er the mantel glimmer silv’ry thru my briar’s curling hate, Banners, cups, a ragged pennant-relics of old college days. Relics of old college days gleaming thru the soft blue hate. Cherished mem'ries cluster round you. mem'ries lime can ne’er erase. Cares were few then, life teas gay; song and laughter held full sway. And the skies were blue and golden in good old college days. Thus, when ttvilight shadows deepen, when the pipe and hearth are lit. Banish years and care and sorrow as the melting smoke-wreaths flit. Once again, 1 hear old voices, once again the dear old cry Faintly rings its dying echo. Rah! Rah! Rah! C. C. N. Y. Rah! Rah! Rah! C. C. N.

NCE again a Microcosm appears to chronicle the doings of a year. To the College at large it is nothing more than a Boole of the Year;” to us of the class of 1921 it means the history of four years spent midst gothic walls under the constant teaching and blessed with the friendship of professors who have striven to inspire us to attempt nothing but the best in later life. Fast and firm arc the bonds of friendship formed in the classroom, in the alcove or at the athletic contests. .We trust that further association will strengthen this priceless friendship as the years roll by and we grow old together. In after years pleasant memories of college days will make us young again. Some will stand out distinctly forever while others will have faded into the ever-deepening twilight of the past. The Editors of the 11 21 Microcosm have labored with love to make this the best book of its kind. They have striven to create an artistic remembrance of our life at the College “with towers that melt in the sky and gates that stand open for- ever.” This is their own humble contribution to freshen the memory and quicken the heart as. old and careworn, we manage to snatch a few moments from the toil of the day to fondle caressingly the pages of the Microcosm. May the thoughts that will thus be called to mind bring nought but smiles and chuckles of joy. M. W. Sir Deiirateii In •flrnf. ftamuri A.

URBS CORONATA 7.7 fear in Seutnu 7.V The collegiate year of 1920-21 was one of unprecedented activity and growth in every department of the work of the College of the City of New York. Never before in the same space of time had the institution at- tempted so much and accomplished such great things. It has truly earned for itself the title bestowed upon it by Dr. Henry Van Dyke—'“The City’s Crown.” It is indeed the “People’s University.” From its modest beginning some seventy years ago as The Free Academy, the College has developed into one of the foremost institutions of learning in the country. In number of students enrolled in its various courses, it surpasses all others. In breadth of work, in the wide scope of its departments of education, it is equalled by few. The College of the City of New York is now made up of four schools—the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences (comprising the old collegiate courses first established at the institution), the School of Business and Civic Administration, the School of Technology, and the School of Education. Each of these schools has its own administrative staff and faculty—all. however, closely related to each other. In addition, the College maintains an evening session, various extension courses, and a preparatory school. The past year is important because it saw the establishment of two of the four schools of the College. In September, 1920, the Board of Trustees took a long step forward when it organized all the technology courses then given by the College into the School of Technology, and authorized the granting of the degrees of Civil, Chemical. Electrical, and Mechanical Engineer. These degrees arc obtainable after the completion of a year of work beyond the four years necessary for the bachelor’s degree. In February, 1921, the Board of Trustees added a fourth school by organizing the new School of Educa- tion. in which arc included the extension courses formerly given by the College in co-operation with the New York Board of Education. The other schools of the College have kept pace with the movement towards expan sion. 'I'he School of Business and Civic Administration, which offers the degrees of B. B. A. and M. B. A., has enlarged its facilities, and the old College of Liberal Arts and Sciences is still carrying on the work that origin- ally raised the institution to its high place among the universities of the world. The curricular work of a college is, of course, its primary reason for being, but there is nothing that so expresses the spirit of a college and its students as their extra-curricular activities—the things that the students undertake and carry on outside the lecture rooms—the activities which mean more, perhaps, to a student, in the way of closer friendship with his fellows, than mere book-learning. Student activities at the College went through a new birth during the past year. In every branch of activity—in athletics, in dramatics, in publications, in debat- ing. and in numerous other things that students are interested in—there was a tremendous awakening. Never before has the College possessed so many organizations devoted to student extra-curricular interests. CCNY liltttH ♦ • (Uti Urar in SUnmuu (Conii niMvl) The outstanding feature of this period is the gain in prestige, by the Student Council, the students’ self- governing body. The Council has established its supremacy in all student affairs, and that supremacy has been recognized by the faculty. It has been the policy of the faculty to allow the students free play in the direction of their own affairs, and discipline in the College has in a large measure been put into the Council’s hands. When the College celebrated Charter Day on May 6, 1921, the Student Council had complete charge of all arrange- ments. The confidence displayed by the faculty in the Council gives rise to the hope that in the near future the students may be allowed a voice in the settlement of curricular problems—an attainment which, after all, is the culmination of all student self-government. The achievements of the College in athletics arc reviewed elsewhere in this volume. Debating has occu- pied its share of interest. Two debates, one with Brooklyn Polytechnic Institute, another with Manhattan Col- lege, were held. The Prize Speaking Contests were well-contested. The literary societies of the College con- tinued to draw into them the students who were interested in literature, and several new societies were organ- ized to foster literature and the arts. The Social Problems Club and the Civic Club have devoted themselves to an intelligent study of the social and economic problems of the day, and under their auspices the College heard many prominent speakers. The Dramatic Society did a splendid piece of work in its presentation of the annual Varsity Show. The publications of the College have maintained their high standard in the face of increasing costs of production. The Campus.” last year a five-column weekly, has become a six-column semi-weekly. With the increase in size has come an increase in interest, in accuracy, and in timeliness. College Mercury” continues to be the goal of the literary men of the College. The “City College Quarterly,” the alumni publication, is as good as ever. The Student Council has authorized the publication of a new edition of the “Lavender Book.” to be issued in Sep- tember, 1921. An agitation in favor of the publication of a comic periodical is gaining strength, and the new magazine bids fair to become a reality. All these developments show the intense interest in student activities— an interest that was displayed materially in the record-breaking membership in the “Union, now thoroughly re- organized as an efficient financial agency. In line with a general movement toward centralization of effort, the clubs of the College organized the Club Council, which sends its delegates to the Student Council. A notable step was taken by the Student Council when it formally abolished hazing among Freshmen and Sophomores. For the first time in many years an entire schedule of Fresh-Soph activities was run off without an interruption. During the same year, the long campaign looking toward the restoration of football at the College was successfully carried out. This means that City College will be represented next fall by a Freshman Football Team. The fund for the City College Library reached its quota, and work on the building will soon be begun at the site on Convent Avenue. CCNi MAIN BUILDING Thirltfi 7.7 Sty? $?ar in SUumu 7.7 (Concluded) When Professor Albert Einstein, the distinguished discoverer of the theory of relativity, visited America on behalf of the Palestine University, he made City College his headquarters and delivered a scries of lectures there. A panoramic group photograph of the entire student body was taken on the occasion of his visit here. Before concluding this summary of the year, which is, of necessity, rather fragmentary, a word should be said about the evening session of the College—a branch which exceeds the day session numerically and is fully as important. The College maintains its evening sessions at various centers throughout the city. At the Main Building on St. Nicholas Terrace it conducts most of its liberal educational courses, vocational courses, and ad- vanced professional courses. The enrollment in the sessions here has had a remarkable growth, the number of students increasing from 201 in 1900 to 2,437 in 1920. The School of Business and Civic Administration has its headquarters at the old college building on 23rd Street, now called the Commerce Building. Here are given the professional courses of the College. The Brook- lyn branch of the College, located at the Bovs’ High School building, offers similar courses to those given at the Main Building. Established in 1917, it now has more than 800 students. In the Municipal Building, the Col- lege gives courses for the benefit of city employees. The student activities in the evening session of the College has developed considerably in the past year. The Main Building, the Commerce Building, and the Brooklyn branch all have their Student Councils. Several clubs arc maintained, and recently a baseball team was organized. An evening session magazine, “The Owl,” has been successfully started. The future of the evening session is indeed a bright one.

IlSl® Forty-Fire PRIZE SPEAKING The semi-annual Prize Speaking Contests, which have become such an interesting feature of our College life, took place this year on Friday, November 12, 1920. and Friday. May 13, 1921. respectively. Large audiences attended l th the Fall and Spring contests, and the quality of the declamations and orations was fully up to the high standard set in previous years. In the Fall contest. Francis E. Corbie, '24. speaking on “Justice to the Negro,” was awarded the prize of the Hoard of Trustees for the best original oration. Corbie’s speech was a stirring plea for the extension of civic opportunities and educational facilities to the colored man. The Freiberg Prize for the second best oration was won by Samuel Rosenblatt, '22, who made a Plea for Open Diplomacy.” Other orations were delivered by Joseph Hloch, '21, who spoke on “The Release of Political Prisoners;” Leon Liebrcich, ’21. who delivered a speech on The Hebraic Spirit;” and Emil Schlcsingcr, ’21. who spoke on “The Great Injustice. On the same occasion, the Roemcr Prize for poetry declamation was won by Hencdict Siambler, '21, who gave an exquisite rendition of Schiller’s The Diver. H. A. Tynes, ’22, offered Edwin Markham’s “.Man With the Hoc,” and A. W. Lewin, ’21, recited Como,” by Joaquin Miller. All the pieces were well received. The judges of the evening were Professors Hall. Crowne. and Morse, and Professor Hatch of the Public Speaking Department acted as chairman. During intermissions, Professor Baldwin rendered several selections on the organ. In the contest held during the Spring term. Edward M. Swift won the Board of Trustees' Prize for his oration on “The Solution of the Negro Problem. The Freiberg Memorial Prize went to Benedict Stamblcr. who spoke on The Meaning of Nationality.” Other addresses were delivered by Emil Schlcsingcr, who spoke on “Understanding the Industrial Problem, and Nathan Green, who made a strong Plea for Disarmament.” In the declamations contest, the Roemcr Prize was awarded to Adolph Glassgold for his excellent inter- pretation of Silver’s College of the City of New York.” Tennyson's The Revenge was delivered by Gus- tave Sokol, and Abraham Frost closed the contest with a declamation of Herbert Kaufman's “The Hell Gate of Soissons. The chairman of the evening was Professor Mosher of the Public Speaking Department. Professor Horne, Dr. Taaffe, and Mr. Hughes acted as judges. Professor Baldwin played during the intermissions. 1Q21| CCNY Mk |psM.

No further dues arc required. The Club now carries about 700 members on its mailing list. The activity of the Club consists in occasional dinners at the College with an informal smoker and sympo- sium in the Webb Room, with “talent both from within and without the membership of the Club. Many of the Alumni projects, plans and problems arc discussed in an informal way. The Secretary-Emeritus of the Club is Lewis S. Hurchard, '77, under whose inspiration the Club was formed and has been carried on. The last dinner of the Club was held on May 18th, 1921. The Cluh has rendered the Alumni a real service by contributing a portion of the money necessary to carry on the Alumni Bureau. • For membership, address Professor Burchard at the College.

S., June Eighty-One NUMERAL LIGHTS In accordance with the traditional custom, the class of 1931 bade the College and the curriculum a mourn- ful adieu on the evening of June second. The Numeral Lights exercises were held in the Great Hall, at the foot of Eternity Rock, and on the campus, and every feature of the program was in keeping with the more or less “solemn tone of the occasion. A large group of mourners, made up of Seniors and their friends, gathered in the Great Hall, and as the lengthening shadows overcast the wide reaches of the gothic structure, the funeral ceremonies began. Ed- ward Eliscu, Chairman of the Numeral Lights Committee, acted as chief mourner. His eulogy of the dear de- parted curriculum was sacreligiously witty. He was followed by Morris YVeintrob, President of June, ’31, who reviewed the important events in the history of the world, touching lightly upon Alexander Caesar. Napoleon, and the World War. but laying great stress upon the four years spent by '31 at the College. Weintrob’s inter- pretation of world history filled up the gaps in Wells' Outlines of History.” Professor William B. Guthrie added a serious touch to the occasion in a stirring address to the Seniors, and immediately afterward came “the event of the evening. As Professor Baldwin, at the organ, led the as- semblage in the singing of “Lavender, the class painting was slowly unveiled. With colored lights playing up- on it, the picture, the work of Kenneth Nunes, evoked long and hearty applause. Then, with the coffin bearing the dead curriculum, the mourners began their slow, measured tread to Eternity Rock. Here, bv the fitful light of a huge bonfire, the favorite plaques of the student—Chemistry, Mathe- matics, Latin, and Physics—were consigned to eternal damnation by David Lindenaucr, Edward Swift, Herbert Skach, and Kenneth Nunes, respectively. The solemnity of the obsequies was in continual danger of being brok- en by the laughter of the assemblage. As the bonfire died down, the coffin of the curriculum was cast upon it, and then, while the mounting flames rose around it and consumed it, the mourners all joined in singing that time-honored dirge, Another Little Job for the Undertaker.” The evening, begun so sadly, ended joyously. The campus, decorated with streamers and colored lan- terns, was the scene of merry dancing to the strains of jazz. It was well toward morning before the last reveler took his (or her) way home.

Fox Chairman The Class of 1921 of the Commerce Building was organized during the early part of the fall term. The Seniors took a large part in the organization of the Student Council, which had not met for two years. As a matter of fact most of the Seniors were elected delegates to this body. On Christmas Eve the class held its first Dance at the College gymnasium. The affair was so success- ful that another had to be promised to take place soon after. The Banquet at the Arkwright Club was the next affair which all Seniors attended. By this time one term had already slipped by. During the spring term the membership was greatly increased. All of the officers were retained with the exception of Mr. Tanner, the Vice-President, who had left the school. .Miss Mary Goldman was elected to take his place. Mr. A. M. Fox was then elected Associate to the Faculty Advisor. Mr. Green. The following committees were appointed; Diploma, History, Pin and Fob, Publicity, and Dance. In fact almost every member of the class had a job and a duty to perform. All did their work well. The Farewell Dance was held on May 7th. Was it successful? Anybody who attended can answer that. The next thing the Seniors did was to vote a gift to the College Library Fund. A present was also voted to the Commerce Building. The last official act of the class was the Commencement Banquet on June 23, 1921. Eitkiy-Sir Solomon Brosi.au Menorah. Favorite occupation—Put and take. Sol Harry M.

If we do not meet again, why we shall smile, If not, why then this parting was well made. —Shakespeare. In the '21 alcove that overlooks the plot of ground outside our windows now so hcautful and green, we shared our joys and sorrows, triumphs and defeats. The reminiscences of our days together wc cherish in our hearts—the tend crest recollections of youth. In the quiet of twilight shadows when the memories of bygone days arc recalled, wc shall think of Alma Mater and ’21 with admiration and love. Why should I recount all the glories of '21, or proclaim it the best class the College ever had? I will not gloat over each trivial triumph, as classes have done in the past. Rather let me tell of the times wc spent together where contact of man with man did more for us than track meets and swimming matches. I shall never forget registration day of September, 1917. The class of ’21 had organized itself during the summer at the home of Joe Jonas where Norman Marks, '19, taught us how to stand our ground against the Sophs and especially the notorious “Butcher Squad or Dirty Dozen,” as it was called. On registration day a group of about eight freshmen walked into College with Haring red tics, feeling somewhat bellicose but acting timidly. Uninitiated in the custom of the College ways, they had no conception of the monstrosity of the crime they were perpetrating. After registration '20 assembled and '21 did likewise. The inevitable resulted. A savage tussle followed during which the Sophomores succeeded in getting the red ties from the Freshmen and incidentally collars, socks, shoes, skin, hair, etc. The class, nevertheless, was not dispossessed of its alcove, the goal of the Soph attack. It was great fun while it lasted. Then followed a snake dance, songs and cheers—and fisticuffs. The whole affair brought closer the scattered individuals and solidified the class for the struggle to come. The Freshman year was chock full of activity. Who can forget those memorable meetings in the Bronx and the grand expeditions in search of unsuspecting Sophomores? Who can forget how Leo Lchrman was rescued from the Sophs on the night when he was to be hazed, how wc scouted the East Side in search of hazing parties, how wc sought after the hall where the Soph Smoker was being held? There was the Fresh Smoker with,Charlie Frank and Nat Krin, headliners, and Billings as the Ha- waiian Lady.” The Fresh Feed and Peace Banquet bring back particular pleasant memories of ante-prohibition days when beer flowed like water and it was in bad style to get drunk! Ah, well! The class displayed great prowess in athletics. 11 triumphed over ’20 on the track. Won the interclass swimming and basketball tournaments, interclass track meet and other events which gave evidence that ’21 was taking part in athletics with success. But the triumph of triumphs desired was the capture of the flag in the flag rush between '20 and ’21. For weeks before the event e nthusiasm ran high. Fiery circulars were issued to 19 Hccny Mic ;®psAV S'lnety-Fotn Freshman proclaiming;—“Freshmen break tradition”!! Odd numbered classes in the past had lost flag rushes way back into the good old days.” At last the day of days came. The flag was captured in record time. '21 had broken tradition. Then the world war and the division of the class! Some of the boys went down to the 23rd Street branch, while others were inducted into the service. At 23rd Street, the class organization was exceptionally strong and encountered little opposition from '22. At the Soph Smoker the class gathered together again—dough- boys in khaki, gobs in blue from uptown and the staunch bunch in civics from 23rd Street. How we did cele- brate! And what memories are ours! , The return to the Heights was celebrated by a dance in the gym, the novelty and the delight of which took the College by storm. We called it a “Dansant”—don't you know? Every one was anxious to be present, and I believe that cvcrv one who came was. Jerry Complimentary Ticket” Jonas was there. So were his girl and two complimentary tickets—one for him and one for his girl. (Oh, no! Jerry didn’t hand in his tickets. He frames all his complimentary tickets in a lavender setting). About this time radical changes began to take place. Some of the boys had elected Abnormal Psychology and showed it. Dan Dudley” Scheinkcr would argue and argue about Dementia Praecox; but Steve Brodie could never follow Dan’s logic. Steve, having specialized in Professor Mott's course in Poetry during the Nine- teenth Century did very little else than smoke a pipe (and cigarettes if he could get them from the boys). Steve seemed to have that habit real bad—from gimme a match” to “gimme a pipe-full. Mush” Wcintrob, our Prexy, almost bankrupted Hammond's Lunch Room whenever Steve hove into view. He just had to instruct Dave Levinson to put another ball of cream into Steve’s plate—Steve being so eloquent as he recited a pitiful poem to the open-mouthed diners. Steve and Abraham De Witte Cohen and some of the other boys began to cultivate mustaches and to “take on” with girls. Of course, this being the case, we decided to run another dance in order to show off our girls and mustaches. Wherefore, the Junior Hop with its saporific dreaminess and shaded lights. Oriental music and multicolored streamers! How proudly we glided over the gym floor! Great times, weren’t they? In the Junior year a considerable number of our pals “deserted the ranks. Some went to other colleges, some to medical and dental colleges while others left for the business world. And it is true that those who re- mained were not bound so firmly as when Fresh-Soph activities demanded union for self-preservation. Perhaps, the increased responsibilities and maturer tasks were responsible. At any rate, we met daily in our sun-lit alcove, at the games and contests, in the classrooms and at the dances. On the basketball field, Nat Krinsky never failed to bring fame to '21, nor Chick Feigin. nor “Steam- ship” Lamm. Nat's spectacular falls on the court were so consistent that they began to be looked for. In the literary activities, Mush” Wcintrob, Eddie Eliscu and Abe Franzblau as Editors of the Microcosm, “Mer- cury” and Campus respectfully added more glory to our class. We were represented by leaders in all branches of extra-curricular activity and can look backward to an enviable record of accomplishments. inelj-Fis-e At last the heights were attained. As Steve Brodic so aptly exclaimed. “We reached the pinochle of our desires. We became Seniors! A feeling of superiority seized us as we trod our daily course, spurning Fresh- men. looking down upon the Sophs and jeering at the Juniors. We occupied the front rows of the Great Hall when at chapel meetings, the cynosure of all eyes—even the Professors’ seated on the platform. In spite of our heavy programs and extra-curricular activities we found time to attend our farewell dance at the Motel St. Regis. There, on April 30th, we gathered together for one of the most delightful dances ever offered to lovers of the nimble art. With most artistic surroundings, heavenly music and ravishing partners to to aid us in our precipitate flight to the heights of enjoyment, what wonder that we bid each other adieu with exultant hearts! Then came our revenge when we met the faculty nine on the baseball diamond. Wasn’t Big Bill Guthrie funny as Umpire? And wasn’t “Monarch Brownson funnier? Numeral Lights were splendid but were followed by the exams much too soon. But, exams were over soon enough and then came the week of preparation for Commencement, the day that saw our entrance into “the world beyond the gates.” Commencement eve marked our Banquet at Mur- ray’s where City College classes have dined for years and years. Then came the final adieus and the parting of the ways. My pen falters and my throat swells so that 1 must come to a close for emotion has got the best of me. Ah. the four long years of untrammelled joy and experiences! Adieu, Alma .Mater, our debt to you is infinite—our tics indissoluble. We shall meet again and again as the years roll by and ever shall we drink to and strive for the best of colleges—dear, old C. C. N. Y.

Henry Sicular .Barney Wilkes ..A. M. Lcvier. .. . Henry Miller .. W. Licbowitz The extraordinary success of the 1921 class was due to the splendid spirit of co-operation shown by the February and June class organizations. Four years ago, when the June ’21 boys entered, they found their February classmates fully organized and ready to welcome their brother freshmen. Then they united and have remained so ever since. So effectively did they get together that as freshmen they decisively smashed the sophs and as sophs they vigorously lambasted the freshmen. As upper classmen both 1921 classes continued to act as a unit, successfully running a most brilliant scries of social events. When the 'Twenty Class had been graduated and had bequeathed to 'Twenty- one the prestige and dignity of seniors, the same spirit of class loyalty prevailed, though necessarily, the major part of the activities concerned with graduation were cheerfully carried on by the June class, who received the wholehearted support of their February classmates. After Commencement, at the Senior Banquet, all 'Twenty-one men renewed their vow of friendship and of loyalty to Alma Mater. They left the College as they had entered it—united for the greater glory of 'Twen- ty-one and City College. • One lluHdrrJ FEBRUARY ’21 OFFICERS Gilooo Ont Hundred and One ©fttrrrs nf 3Jmtr (Class nf 1021 .

Still wc managed to keep the Sophs more or less worried and to partake of a Frosh feed to the tune of crashing glass and breaking (Sophomore) heads. And when, the term after the war was over, we united with our classmates who shed the uniform and pro- ceeded to take out the kinks of K. P. and Twenty-third Street on the incoming freshmen. Freshmen entertained theatre audiences in Harlem and held forth on the Whichncss of the Wliyforc” on street comers. A Twenty-two issue of the Campus” commemorated our glories. Then came the organ- ized events. Having won the tug easily we decided that the gym building was not large enough to hold the two classes. In the ensuing difference of opinion several doors were smashed, a few windows broken while cas- cades of water ran through the building in accordance with a well known physical law which states that if a party on the inside turns a hose on a party on the outside, someone will get wet. The members of the faculty not being blessed with a sense of humor, wc languished in inactivity for the rest of the year while the officers mort- gaged their futures to pay the bill. Wc forgot our troubles in a dance. Thus ended our sophomore year. One Hundred end Four FEBRUARY 'U OFFICERS Gibtofl Out undrfj and Firf History of Twenty-two Class Sol Brin Moc Vcscll .

To fittingly celebrate this great event a Junior Festival Week was ordained. To quote from the Festival Week Book which the class issued: “An entertainment novel both in character and concep- tion to C. C. N. Y. A Festival Week snatched from the daily round of study, and dedicated to laughter, good- fellowship, and College spirit.” “From Christmas to New Year while Freshmen and Seniors lived in the library and ate in the Automat a happy throng of Juniors forsook the customary holiday grind of essay manufacture and alternated days of slumber with nights of joyous festivity. A theatre party, a prom, and the basketball game with Toronto filled a happy week. This past term brought with it the Junior Hop held on May 14th in the College gymnasium. 'Twenty- two is proud of its record in College and is eagerly awaiting the coming year, its Senior year.

As Freshmen, '23 had had its hands full dealing with the Sophs, but had managed to come out victorious. That never-to-be-forgotten “Battle of the Hose, which had resulted in the suspension of Fresh-Soph activities for a term, did not dampen ’23’s enthusiasm. When, in the Spring Term, the ban was lifted, ’23 was quick to respond with a record of achievement that few other clashes have equalled. That was last year, and its history may be found in the 1020 Microscosm. This year, if anything, added still more to the glory of the story of 1923. The class came back to college, no longer Freshmen, but Sopho- mores, and as such they possessed a most lamentable but nevertheless cherished duty and prerogative. It was their task to take hold of the innocent and untamed Freshmen, lay them across their knees, and give them a figurative spanking. How '23 subdued the Fresh is a story that per haps can never be told in its entirety. Only the high spots can be touched on here. They will suffice to show the stuff that ’23 is made of.

Starting with the Pushball contest, in which, outnumbered, but full of grit. '23 pushed back the Freshmen, and going through the list to the Fresh-Soph basketball game, in which a determined team of Sophs snatched a victory by sheer pluck and perseverance from a vastly superior Freshman five, '23 went through the term with victory after victory. In the Tug-of-war, '23 won. Then, in swift succession, came victories in soccer, in track, in debating, in the Cane Spree, and even in chess. The Fresh- Soph baseball game resulted in a tic. Not content with beating '24 in the formal contests. '23 conducted a scries of hazing parties, in various sections of the city, that arc still the talk of the College. For the first time since pre-war days, '23 held a Soph carnival. '1'he class wound up its activities for the term in a blaze of glory with the liolding of the Soph Smoker at a resort on City Island. 'Flic affair was one long to be remembered—a pronounced success from start to finish. The Spring Term came, and the class of 1023 became, technically, a Junior class, but the old spirit that had animated it as a Freshman and Sophomore class was still alive. It devoted itself to training its successors, the class of 1925, which had just entered the College, in the art of defeating '24—an art in which '23 was unusually proficient. On the athletic field '23 still maintained its supremacy. It romped away with first place in the annual inter-class track meet, '23 is well represented on all the Varsity teams, and in the non-athlctic fields of chess and debating it has earned the right to call itself the best in the College. 'Flic Spring Term came to a close on May 14, when '23 held its Junior Hop in the gymnasium. Like all '23 social events, the affair set a high standard for succeeding classes to aim at. We look forward to next year with supreme confidence. um CCNY ►sAV One Hundred and Ten JUNK 23 OFFICERS Gibson 0«f Hundred and Elevfu History of the Class of ’24 JFail Cerm February Joe Fagin . . .

William Finkcl The Class of 1934 made its debut at the College in February, 1930, and they had not been here a day before they came in contact with their traditional foes of ’33. The latter, but recently themselves Freshmen, but now Sophomores, cocky and self-assured, were out for ’34'$ scalp. The newcomers, however, were not slow to organize against their enemy, and in the many contests between the two classes '34 had by no means the worst of it. September brought with it the other half of the class, and ’34, recruited to its full strength, threw its hat into the ring. '34's record in the Fresh-Soph contests of 1930 is one that the class can always look back at with pride. True, they lost the Student Council and A. A. banners to the Sophs by narrow margins, hut the spirit of dogged grit and determination displayed by the Freshmen was the admiration of the College. The Fresh-Soph struggles started badly for '34. Sophomore strategy and organization won the Pushball Contest for '33, and in the Tug-of-War the second-year men again gained the victory. Then the tide turned. In swift succession, the Freshmen came across with victories in swimming, in cross-country, and in tennis, and ’33 began to worry. All eyes were now turned on the Flag Rush, the supreme struggle of the season. Four hundred strong, thoroughly organized and well-drilled, the Freshmen entered the Stadium with exultant hearts and eager voices, supremely confident of the outcome. Their confidence was well-placed, for they broke through the Soph lines and grasped the precious bit of bunting in the quickest time ever recorded in the history of the College. The Sopho- mores simply could not resist the terrific pressure of the attacking force. It was a glorious exhibition!

The winning of the Rush by '24 had brought it into a tic with ’23 for the Student Council banner. The cane spree decided the issue. The Sophomores gained the victory. Soon after, the Freshmen met '23 in debate. Here again they were forced to taste defeat. Hut '24 was game to the core, and though defeated in soccer and in track, went on fighting. 'Fhc struggle for the A. A. banner had resulted in another tic. and the annual Fresh-Soph basketball game decided the winner. ’24 was proud of its team—a team that had represented the College throughout the season and had rolled up a long string of unbroken victories. It was this very fact that led to the team’s undoing. Over- confident and reckless. ’24 let the game slip by one point into the hands of '23, and the A. A. banner was lost. ’23's Soph Smoker came next, and here ’24 was not at all backward in making its presence felt. A score of Freshmen discovered the Soph rendezvous, but. small in numbers, were unable to do anything. Then came the Frosh Feed, and ’24 did itself proud. Held at Murray’s during Christmas week, not a solitary Sophomore knew of the affair. It was a complete success! 'Fhc Fall term was wound up with a Frosh Dance, and ’24 entered upon its career as a Sophomore class. ’2.' bears mute witness to what '24 has done in the way of establishing its power over the newcomers. Next term 'Fhc Spring term was notable chiefly for its social events—the scries of three “Arabian Nights” run off will bring more eloquent testimony! by the class. A novelty entertainment, a smoker, and a dance make up the list of affairs held by ’24 last semester —a really remarkable achievement for any class. The same term witnessed the Fresh-Soph Peace Banquet, at which ’23 and ’24, meeting around the festive board, buried the hatchet. Recquicscat in pace! June F. Eugene Corbie Murray Teitclbaum Paul P.

The class is. of course, in its infancy, and as a result, all the facts about its existence to date can be marshalled quickly and without very great trouble. With the aid of the Junior Class. Freshman elections were held within three weeks of term open- ing, and were completed in one-twothrcc fashion. Class activities for the semester began with the holding, on March 20, of a Freshman Smoker, which was a considerable success; a large number attended the affair, very good entertainment was provided, and “a good time was had bv all, including Professor Guthrie. The Fresh- man Dance was the next class function; this was held in the College gym Friday evening. May 13, and despite a drizzling rain, which somewhat spoiled the evening, may be ranked among the best dances of the season. At this affair, as at the class smoker, a large gathering was present, including a number of old-time alumni who ‘‘dropped in. In the held of athletics. ’23 has made an impressive record. At this date of writing, the Freshman base- ball team has played thirteen games, and has emerged victorious in all but one. Some of the best of the city high schools have bowed in defeat to the Frosh team, which is the best in years, and, best of all. the N. Y. U. Fresh- men also fell before the team’s onslaught. Morris Abrevaya. a former player on the Dc Witt Clinton H. S. team, captains the Freshman. In the interclass basketball tournament, the Freshmen made a rather poor show- ing. finishing fourth, defeating the Seniors, hut losing their other games. In tr.tck, however. '25 once more forged to the front. In the first meet of the year, that with the '24 class, the Freshmen defeated the Sophomores, but due to an error in scoring bv a reporter, it was announced in the Campus that ’24 had won. In the Annual Indoor Inter-class meet, the Freshmen captured second honors, bowing only to '23, and once more leaving ‘24 be- hind. In the Outdoor Meet the class made a rather poor showing, this being due to the fact that not sufficient men could be induced to compete at the time. It may be interesting to note that the five men who represented '2.' in that meet—Fiuri. Connell, Burnett, Spiegel and Bluestein. all placed in their events. A new thing in class activity has been instituted by '25 with the founding of a class magazine, The New- comer. one number of which has been issued to date. 11 is twenty pages large, contains stories, verse, editorials, an article, a hit of sporting news, and so on. 'File magazine has met with quite a cordial reception, and the ’25 Class hopes to continue publication next term. l92i;iS(ILCCNY ViQP «|psAV One ItunJred dint Sixteen FEBRUARY ’«5 OFFICERS Grtiton One Hunited and Setetileei The Associate Alumni of the College of the City of New York (Incorporated) Officers Thomas W.

Hitherto, the Student Council represented every extra-curricular organization in the College except the Club Council, which is comprised of representatives from all the clubs and societies. By an amendment to the constitution, the Club Council was permitted to send to the Student Council two representatives who were to act as ex-officio members in the latter body. Thus the Student Council became truly representative of every student organization and incidentally gained control of an organization representing hundreds of students not interested in activities other than that of clubs and societies. The “Union.” the financial organ of the Student Council, was given an impetus and gained materially in the number of its members, since an agreement had been made between the Student Council and Club Council that a U ticket should be prerequisite to membership in a club or society. In the matter of Fresh-Soph activities the Student Council took a bold step forward by prohibiting all forms of pledging and hazing with the exception of that done for the Soph Carnival and Class Dinners. The action taken by the Council cannot be too highly commended, for it has done away with a foolish tradition. In all prob- ability the other colleges and universities will, sooner or later, follow this sagacious measure. The faculty, however, favor all other Fresh-Soph activities and stand ready to uphold the decisions of the Student Council. A long-felt want has at last been realized in the erection of a large bulletin board in the concourse. Space has been apportioned to every organization, signs arc to be painted by the Art Society only, and the Bulletin Board Committee is vested with discretionary powers as to what signs are to be posted on the board. Publicity has thus been standardized and the concourse will no longer look like an art gallcrv for amateurs. For the purpose of keeping the alcoves and concourse clean the Student Council adopted the following plan: All Presidents of classes, marshals, student councillors, and members of Soph Skull and Lock and Key arc to report to the Student Affairs Committee any student found guilty of impairing the cleanliness and tidiness of the concourse and alcoves. The Student Affairs Committee is to investigate the ease, pass judgment, and if the student is found guilty, the committee is to recommend him to the Dean for suspension. In the College Tower on the eve of the 20th of April took place the Student Council Soiree, this time an informal dance, at which the prominent men of the College gathered together with their lady friends and skid- ded over the floor of the Webb Room in time with the atmospheric vibrations produced by a four piece syncopated One Hundred and Tteentf-Tteo JUNE STUDENT COUNCIL _____ Gibran 1Q21«CCNY VVigip fpsAV One llxnJrtJ a j Ttrtnlr-Thrtt jazz hand that caused the venerable pictures themselves to participate in those oscillatory motions so character- istic of jazz.

Charter Day exercises this year were under the jurisdiction of the Student Council. An account appears later on. Arrangements for a new edition of the Lavender Hook are well under way at the time of the present writing and, when completed, a copy will be distributed to every U member. The Co-operative Store Committee has been meeting regularly and working faithfully with the Faculty Committee, transacting the business of the Co-operative Store and always keeping a watchful eye open for im- provements. installing those that might benefit the students. For recognition of conspicuous and valuable servi:es rendered to their Alma Mater the following men were awarded the honor of honors, the Student Council Insignia: George Fcigin. Abraham Franzbl.au, Nathan Krinsky, David Nasanow, Leo Sherman. Morris Wcintrob, Sidney Emmcr, and Isidor Glasgal. Acting on the report of the Insignia Committee that some sort of insignia be given to those men who, not deserving the Student Council Insignia, still deserve some recognition for their work accomplished, the following amendment was passed by the Student Council: Minor insignia shall be given to men who take part in (1) Club Council work. (2) Debating, Chess or Dramatics, (3) Publications, or any other branch of extra curricular activity except athletics not herein provided for which the Council may decide upon.

By an amendment to the Student Council constitution, the Club Council was admitted to the Union on a par and with the same privileges accorded the Athletic Association.

Faculty Treasurer Spring Term David L. Nasanow Sidney Emmer Prof. W. Williamson Since its inception, seldom has the Union faced and solved with a fair degree of success so many problems as confronted it this year. A new plan of campaign for membership, the admission of the Clubs through the Club Council and addition interest in the Union has added greatly to its prestige. The collection of a single fee for membership in all the student organizations of the College eliminated the expense and overlapping efforts of many individual campaigns and brought into play the facilities of all the extra-curricular activities with the result that a unified, efficient campaign was effected. Since a student who is not a member of the Union is barred from every extra-curricular activity, this year has witnessed a tremendous increase in membership. This, of course, has done much for that much overworked college spirit” that seems to be the banc of all collegiate editorial writers. The biggest accomplishment, by far, has been the establishment of the Club Council’s guarantee thus putting the various clubs on a firm financial basis. The Union has undertaken during the past year many items hitherto not in the scope of its work, and the trend is conspicuously toward expanding its influence more and more.

Seniors in the high schools will be informed by means of circulars and bulletin that the engineering courses lead to full degrees. The Society is eagerly awaiting the completion of the new Engineering Building so that it may focus all its effort on the problem of associating with the Faculty in order to produce a modern, efficient School of Engin- eering that will attract more and more students as its reputation increases.

The literary activities of the society gained added impetus during the past year. There were consider- ably more readings of original poems, essays and critiques. 'Flic banner event of the year was the banquet held at La Maisonette. The food was choice, but the stories were choicer. Judge Mulqueen, I)r.

With the aim in view of doing purely literary work, the society stands before the student body as a unique organization, soliciting membership from all the literary men of the College. The “Seven Arts arc: Architecture, Dancing, Dramatics, Literature, Music, Painting and Sculpture. Since its conception the society has held open meetings addressed by outside speakers and members of the Faculty. Club meetings, at which the members presented original work, were featured on the term’s program. The papers dealt directly with one of the fine arts. They were prepared thoroughly, and were discussed and criticized by the members. Besides these two phases of its activity, the society occasionally takes trips to vari- ous places of interest, theatres, lectures and museums. Professors Coleman, Von Klcnzc, Hunt and Stair have been very much interested in the society. They have all lectured upon some phase of art and literature. 'I'hc project is a new one. Never before in the history of the College has such an organization been formed in the day session. With a keener appreciation of the fine arts comes a more wholesome existence. The club, aiming for purity in literature and art, attempts to fulfill this object, and desires to interest all students in what has formerly been merely names to them.

The Society had its inception at the organization meeting held on February 25th, at which the most active College artists were present. The great problem confronting the Art Society in the achievement of its program of furnishing artistic publicity for all College activities was the proper and symmetrical arrangement of posters in the Concourse with- out having a suitable bulletin board. The action of the Student Council on March 16th in providing for the con- struction of this bulletin board cleared away this difficulty. A committee was appointed with discretionary pow- ers in the apportionment of space and the selection of signs. The supervision of the board was entrusted to the Art Society. A special appropriation by the Club Council has made possible the maintenance of the bulletin board on which publicity for all the Societies and for the Student Council is posted. Each member of the Art Society is assigned to a particular publicity task. The successful substitution of symmetrical and artistic publicity tak- ing the place of the former garish and inappropriate Concourse decorations speaks well for the future of the Society.

In the fall term of 1920, a council of ten Freshmen and Sophomores professing interest in things liter- ary, was organized by Henry Zolinsky, erstwhile Freshman poetical genius. These organizers became charter mem- bers and drew ut a constitution establishing Bohemia, a literary society for lower classmen. Bohemia has lived up to all that its name suggests, and has by far eclipsed the old Adclphian. Original poems, short stories and articles were read and discussed in a manner which indicated a keen appreciation of good literature. Modern poets, authors and playwrights were studied and discussed. The College publications were also subjects for general discussion of a constructive nature. In the Spring Term, Professor Bird Stair honored the Society with acceptance of the position of faculty ad- visor. He also delivered an excellent talk on “The Impressionistic Technique in Modern Literature.” A spirit of friendship and good-fellowship which is indisrensablc to the intelligent and amicable cultivation of literary talent and any intellectual development, has been evident from the very outset. Bohemia is a recognized success, and will continue, in the future, to maintain and advance the high literary standards which it has estab- lished.

Today, the Circolo has a membership of more than fifty. During the past year the society has been active in social and athletic fields. The Circolo held its Annual Smoker on December 2?th, at Wallace Hall, and its annual dance on April 2nd, in the City College gymnasium. The C. D. A. Basketball Five defeated the team of the N. Y. U.

Professor Robinson, the faculty advisor, immediately set about securing prominent business men to address the Club. As a result a scries of interesting and instructive lectures were given. Problems were discussed by the members informally. This discussion, which by its very nature must be theoretical, enabled the business students to help one another solve problems which came up in their class work. Thus, the Business Administration Club enables the men of the College to receive academic and also practical views of the tasks that the business world must face. Though the Club is still young it feels assured of a growth that will keep apace with the rapid enlarge- ment of the School of Business Administration. 1Q21 CCNY UlQpPpsAV One Hundred and Fi ly-'ltro THE PSYCHOLOGY CLUB Prof. John Pickett Turner Max Ncwficld Frederick R. Littlefield, Jr. Israel Oseas Faculty Advisor President Pier-President Secretary and Treasurer The Psychology Club is a new society formed last term in response to popular demand. Its aim is to provide a congenial circle for the scientific study of psychological theory and its applications. Professor Turner ltas sponsored the society and has done much to stimulate interest in its proceedings. Due to the activity of a number of earnest members, various branches of psychological thought have been expounded and vigorously criticized. Among topics treated might be mentioned intelligence tests, psycho-analy- sis, dreams and vocational psychology. During the coming term it is proposed to offer a scries of lectures by a number of men prominent in the field of psychology.

Guthrie The Civic Club, representing those interested in the social sciences, in law and in government, has just com- pleted its most successful year at the College. Many interesting lectures have been delivered at the College un- der the auspices of the Club. These lectures have supplemented the work of a great number of students in all branches of the institution. The work of the Club, however, has not been limited to lectures in the College. Members of the Club have been enabled to study civic problems in the outside world. Research trips have been made to the Penal institutions in the city, to Sing Sing, and to a number of the courts so that the members might secure a first- hand view of conditions. All this work was undertaken under the guidance of Professor William B. Guthrie. It was thru him that prominent speakers were brought to the College and that permission to inspect the city's penal institutions was secured. One Hiin4rtJ and Fifty-Foui P«I - 0 amo diaid DEBATING Twice during the past year was the Great Hall filled to capacity by the “multitudes” that periodically at- tend the City College debates. Nineteen twenty-one was a banner year for attendance. Perhaps Manager Wolf- sohn's innovation in the form of Varsity Dances held in the gymnasium following the debates had a good deal to do with this. Whatever the reason, the affairs were eloquently successful. The first team, consisting of Maloff, '21, Schlesinger, '21, and Greenberg, ’22, met the “Daniel Websters from the Brooklyn Polytechnic Institute on the evening of March 4th, upholding the negative of the following proposition: Resolved, that immigration into the United States be absolutely restricted for a period of two years—close kin of present residents to be exempt from this restriction.” C. C. N. Y. assumed an invulnerable position. “Your plan of restriction,” we said, admits to the coun- try G0% of those seeking entrance, by means of the exemption of close kin. If immigrants arc harmful, then your plan is far too lenient. If they arc not harmful, then your plan is unnecessary. In cither ease, it is unwise.” And we won by a unanimous decision. But the Gods did not always smile upon us. On May 20th. our debaters. II. Wolfson, ’21. Zorn. '21 and Greenberg, ’22, fell in an attack on the Principle of the Open Shop, before the forces of Manhattan Col- lege. The burden of proof was upon us, since we had to attack the existing order of things and propose a new one. We found the burden too heavy. The audience, however, followed with breathless interest what seemed to he the chief issue—an argu- ment as to the status of Mart Schaffncr and Marx. The negative gave this firm as an example of the ideal con- ditions in an open shop. Zorn, in opening the rebuttal, admitted the ideal conditions but quoted a lit 10 authority to the effect that Hart Schaffncr and Marx was a closed shop. MacCaffrev, of Manhattan, countered with a 1914 authority, citing the firm as an open shop. Wolfson closed for C. C. N. Y. with a 1918 authority estab- lishing the firm as a closed union shop. The judges, after a twenty minute conference, gave the decision to the visitors. Out HunirtJ and Filly-Sit DEBATING TEAM Gibton One Hundred and Fifly-Seren The City College unit of the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps set a new standard for itself during the past year. The quality of the work done has been steadily improved under the efficient direction of Colonel Arnold, who succeeded Major Coslcel as Professor of Military Science and Tactics. The staff has been increased, and a new system of rating has produced admirable results. Fourteen men from the unit attended the R. O. T. C. Infantry Camp at Camp Devens last summer. These men were all in one platoon under the leadership of Lieutenant Crandall, the platoon being adjudged the best in the company. The same company earned first honors in competition during the encampment. On the range in record shooting. Cadet Captain Louis Hoefflinger qualified as a sharpshooter, and was chosen to represent the camp at the National Matches at Camp Perry. The R. O. 1'. C. team from Camp Devens earned premier honors at the tourney, and Captain Hoefflinger shot third highest on the team. The following C. C. N. Y. men qualified as marksmen at Camp Devens: William E. Hcrrlich, Myron J. Kleban, Daniel O'Connell. Edgar Reinhardt, Raymond Sass, Lawrence Sophian, George Tekulsky and Jacob Yankowitz. One Hundred end Fifty-Eight R. O. T. C. IN CAMP Oxe lluxdrtj and Pi ly-Nin V VARSITY EXCURSION It was glorious! The weather was wonderful, the Hudson was beautiful, the lunch was delightful, and the girls were—oh. my! Which is all preliminary to saving that the annual Varsity Excursion up the Hudson, held this year on May 21st, was a tremendously successful affair. Some two thousand young people of both sexes stand ready to back up that statement. How they raved about the excursion, and cried for more! As some- one elevedy put it, If there were four summers, there would be four Varsity Excursions!” The annual excursion of the College is an outgrowth of the famous May Regatta of the early Seventies, when everybody (and his sweetheart) went out along the Harlem in a rowboat and rowed, rowed, rowed. Now- adays, it would be rather difficult to hold a regatta on the Harlem, and so the Varsity Excursion serves as a sub- stitute. Ever since the revival of the old custom, the affair has been run off under the auspices of the College Y”, and the success of the excursion may be attributed mainly to the good work of that organization. This year’s trip was made on the Robert Fulton, of the Hudson River Day Line. The steamer, espec- ially chartered for the occasion, left Desbrosses Street at 1:4. P. M., and 129th Street at 2:15 P. M. Then, laden to the top deck with boys, girls, lunch, and Professor Guthrie, it proceeded on its way up the Hudson. Hoboken, with its own peculiar atmosphere, and Yonkers, with its pretty girls, were soon left behind, and the magnificent scenery of the Hudson was disclosed in all its splendor—for those who were not too busy to look! At five o'clock the “Robert Fulton reached Bear Mountain, and the voyagers disembarked. From then until eight o’clock, the time was spent in various ways. Some couples hastened to the lake and plied the oars till the blisters appeared. Others played baseball on the meadow. Still others made merry on the swings. The youths who had come stag pitched ltorscshocs with Professor Guthrie. Two or three couples were observed climbing the cliffs near the lake. Many, many twosomes” were noticed in cozy little nooks, secure from peep- ing eyes, doing nothing but sitting—and sitting! Of course, everybody—even Professor Guthrie—ate lunch! There was nothing to mar the serenity of the day. The Physics Department had predicted rain, and so the weather was superb! And the trip home! Words fail one! Indeed, words were superfluous. A large, bright, glistening, opu- lent moon graced the occasion, and the Man in the Moon is still laughing at what he saw. Some sang; some danced; some neither sang nor danced. But it was all good fun—everyone enjoyed it—and the 1921 Varsity Ex- cursion is a memory that will not fade for a long, long time! Our Hundred end Sixty Murtftttsm W Staff R.J.

Singer The past year has been a very successful one at the Commerce Building. The registration has been larger than previous Spring Terms, nearly 4(H) women and about 1,800 men registered this Spring Term. The demand in courses at the old Free Academy Building” was so great this term that numerous applicants were unable to be accommodated on account of the physical limitations of the class rooms. Not only has there been a growing increase in registration, but since the Board of Trustees decided to confer the degree of Bachelor of Business Administration and the degree of Master of Business Administration, and enlarged the curriculum, there is a demand for courses at the 23rd Street Building which Dean Robinson could hardly expect would be realized in so short a time after the opening of this branch of the Evening Session. Student activities have also been affected by some impelling force, which is leading them on to success, and will create a real C. C. N. Y. spirit of the Evening Session. The Fall Term saw each building organized and developed strong representative student councils. The Spring Term is marked by the fact that even more attention was directed to the growth of new interbranch activities, among which were the establishment by the Main Building, Evening Session students of the “Owl and of the Baseball Team which represents all branches of the Evening Session. Two of the most successful undertakings of the Commerce Building were the banquets. On January 16th, the Commerce Building held a banquet at the Arkwright Club at 320 Broadway. Mr. Thomas W. Churchill, President of the City College Alumni (and now Trustee of the College), Mr. Frederick P. Bellamy, of the Board of Trustees and Dr. Joseph J. Klein, special lecturer on Income Tax were among the guests that evening. During the Fall Term, an Evening Session banquet was undertaken which proved a very great success. This was held at the Fifth Avenue Building. In all these undertakings the Student Councils took an active part.

One Itundred and Siilj-FiW SENIOR BANQUET The Senior Banquet held at Murray's Gardens on the night of June 23rd, fittingly closed the activities of the class of 1921 as an undergraduate organization. The affair was another splendid demonstration of the everlasting devotion of '21 men to their class and College. Never before had any affair been dominated by such a spirit of good fellowship and good will. The chairman, Edward Eliscu, performed his function with a charm that proved he fully merited his title of class genius. The first speaker was Prof. Ix-igh Hunt who delivered a talk quite different from those heard by the men at the Commencement exercises that morning. The audience showed in an unmistakable way their appreciation of the professor's delightful speech. Nat Krinsky then followed with one of his characteristic orations in which he combined humor with a strong appeal for proper provision by the College authorities for an annual reunion of the alumni at Commence- ment. The President of the June class, Morris Weintrob, spoke earnestly and effectively, asking for practical and actual proof of class spirit. He got it. Of course the ever reliable Prof. William B. Otis was there with his incomparable stories and witticisms. So impressed was the professor with the spirit of joy that prevailed at the dinner that he could give no better advice than the students go all through life with the same feeling. Prof. Samuel Baldwin gave an inspiring talk calling on '21 men to do their best to help others in the great struggle of life. Among the guests was Ray C. Thompson, President of the Twentieth Century Club and honorary mem- ber of the '21 class. Mr. Thompson gave some very humorous reminiscence of his college days. Delighted with the jovial spirit of the men, Mr. Thompson informed his listeners that they all qualified for membership in the Century Club with its prerequisite of good sportsmanship. A class prophecy in which Jerome Jonas foretold, with the correctness of a Coney Island fortune teller, the future of some of the prominent men of the class, was read by the inimitable Ken Nunes. Throughout the evening the College songs and cheers were given with such gusto that even the noise hard- ened frequenters of the Gay White Way had to stop and take notice. A snake dance and Varsity cheer at Times Square closed a memorably pleasant evening.

The old craft started last September under the guidance of William Hurston, its editor of the previous term, with a somewhat changed staff. The first issue was brought out by the editorial staff consisting of Morris White and Henjamin Levine, a business staff organized by David Schcinkcr and its lone art editor, Sol Dickstcin. David Scheinker resigned on account of outside work, and was succeeded by Julius Mcrkclson. Before the term was out. Jacques Valency was added to the editorial staff. The issues brought out by Hurston, despite many handicaps, were considered equal to any ever issued. Spring came and with it an entire change of staff. Hurston, desirous of a rest, having served Mercury for two years, handed the editorship over to Alvin Bruch who called in Bernard Hurwitz, William Needles and Henjamin Levine to aid him. The new staff brought out but one issue being compelled to resign because they would not join the Union. A council was called by Professor Mott, president of the Mercury Association, and Edward Eliscu was elected editor. The College’s literary endeavors were signally noticed this year in the Poets of the Future,” an anthology of college verse gleaned by Professor Schnittkind from college magazines published all over the country. The College ranked second highest in the number of poems by City College men selected for inclusion in the an- thology and first in the number of men to receive honorable mention. Those given places in the “Poets of the Future” are: To the Star Near the Moon. Max Diamond; Crosstown,” Leo Drachslcr; Dreams, Harry Edelstcin; The Subway,” Ralph Gordon; Futility,” Henjamin Levine; “Images Japonaises,” M. Walter Sol- omon. Those receiving honorable mention arc: “Sonnet to God,” Emanuel Gold; “Fantasic,” Howland Hood; “In Memory,” Sigmund J. Levy; “Spring and—” W. R. McLeod; “The College,” Fred Miron; “Spring Nights, William Needles; Madnesses,” William Siegel; Indian Lullaby,” H. H. Sussman; “False Idols, Henry Zolinsky. Agitation during the latter part of this term was started for the permanent clothing of “Mercury” in his Cap and Bells.” The subject, however, was brought no further. A definite desire for a serious magazine exists in the College. One, equal to any in this country, can be brought out provided there is no improper interference. Men must sink their personal differences in the interest of good literature. That is Mercury's” goal; it asks but good-feeling to get there.

The small live-column weekly of last September has developed into the present progressive six- column semi-weekly. The change from one to two issues per week was inaugurated in December, 1920; but it was not until the beginning of the spring term of 1921 that the semi-weekly Campus” emerged from its experimental stage and was firmly established as a permanent College institution. The increase in available news space made pos- sible the introduction of many features which contributed greatly to the general attractiveness and interest of the paper. “The Campus has been expanding its activities in other fields. In March, 1921, it took over the publica- tion of the “City College Quarterly, the official alumni organ. During the last year the Evening Session Page has been re-established, and with the co-operation of a capable staff of Evening Session men and women, has be- come a permanent weekly feature.

Whynman, ’24 The third edition of the Lavender Hook is now on the press, and will be issued to all members of the Union immediately after the beginning of the Fall term. The volume will fill a long-felt want at the Col- lege, for the last edition of the Lavender Hook, published just two years ago, is sadly out of date, and much of its content is misleading. The new edition of “The Freshman Bible” is published under the supervision of the Student Council by a board selected by the Council. A fixed percentage of the U” membership fee has been apportioned to the Lav- ender Book, so that financial difficulties have been eliminated. The book to be issued next Fall is almost as great an improvement over the second edition as that edi- tion was over its pioneer predecessor, which appeared in 1918. The 1921 Lavender Book is practically a new book. Every' bit of information contained in it has been scarchingly investigated and brought up to date. New cuts, drawings, and photos have been introduced, and the addition of several new features makes the volume one of the most complete of its kind ever issued. The handy vest-pocket form of the second edition, with its stiff, durable binding and its extra pages for memoranda, has been retained in the latest edition. The quality of the paper used, however, has been greatly improved.

William Prager, ’23 Seldom have sports prospered with the success enjoyed under the supervision of the recent officials. Man- agers were required to attend all meetings regularly and frequent reports were requested. For the first time in several years, a complete Cross-country schedule was arranged. The baseball program savoured of “big-league” opponents and was the choicest ever offered the Lavender fans. The wrestlers were officially recognized as a minor organization and immediately engaged in Intercollegiate competition, thus bearing the City College ban- ner into a new field of athletic endeavor. . The school of assistants inaugurated the year before, has been improved and enlarged. Track, Basket- ball, Baseball. Swimming, and Tennis now have their Junior Assistants. The scope of the several departments has been broadened. To the duties of the Vice-president have been added those of the Property-manager. The decision to charge admission to the ball games in the Stadium has greatly increased the work of the Treasury of- ficials. The usual intcrclass contests were successfully staged and the victors rewarded. A bronze placquc bearing the numbers of the winning classes in such tourneys is to be erected in the gym. The impetus given Football assures a Freshman team next Fall. - Various radical reforms arc under consideration at the present writing. The code upon which Insignia awards arc made is being carefully revised. A movement is now on foot for the abolition of the Faculty Athletic Committee. In its stead it is desired to substitute a Faculty Advisor. This would eliminate all the tedious red-tape now undergone when F. A. C. consent is necessary on any measure. 7 no Hundred end Ttrenly-liigil A. A. BOARD GiW.II Tied Hundred and Ttrenly-Sine Coach Nat Holman Centers F. Murray, ’21 A. Anderson, ’22 Manager David L.

Edelstcin, '24 The GLOBE’S sports writer says: One of the most conspicuous figures in basketball is Nat Holman. He enjoys a national reputation both as a player and as an expert on the game. Twenty-four years old, he has been playing the game half his life. In reviewing the past basketball season it is only proper that we first comment on him who has made pos- sible brilliant court combinations, both Varsity and Freshman, for the last two years. Congenial and smiling when pleased, grinning and ironical when vexed; that’sNat. His attractive personality and extreme modesty has made him one of the most popular figures ever connected with the College. The initial call for candidates issued soon after the return from our various vacation haunts, was ans- wered by a host of seekers for court honors. Capt. Feigin, Nat Krinsky, Stan Lamm, Frank Murray and “Tubby” Raskin, veterans of the previous year, reported for their preliminary training. Within a week, the many pounds of superfluous beef acquired during the lolling hours of summer pleasures were dripping to the floor. With sufficient first string men on hand for a good varsity aggregation, Coach Holman turned his entire atten- 1921 PfLCCNY MlcW )sA . Tttv flundr J and Thirty I02O «02I’ 1021 CCNY r« Hundred and Thirty-One tion to the new material. By means of his careful coaching Red Klaubcr, former Captain of the yearling team, was developed into a speedy, shifty forward and upon Krinskv's graduation in mid-season, sifted in as Lamm's running mate. Clif. Anderson, who until taken in hand by the Lavender basketball mentor, had never handled a ball with any degree of skill, was carefully groomed as Murray's understudy at center. Frank Sal ., Irv. Kdel- stcin. Jackie Nadcl, Dutch Prager and Archie Hahn, all of rather diminutive stature, formed a capable re- serve squad. 1 he warmup squabble with the Alumni brought out the glaring weakness of the varsity’s offensive. A week of hard practice failed to eradicate the deficiency, for Princeton, unlike its reception the preceding year had more or less of an easy time with the Lavender cohorts. With a new determination to subdue the elusive Tiger, by one supreme effort. Princeton was invaded seven days later by the City College quintet accompanied by an amiable and enthusiastic group of followers. The Nassau lads, again copped the bacon, this time, bv the merest margin. “Next year!” we muse. Next year! Cathedral, Seton Hall and our English cousins from Toronto University proved easy meat. Columbia, however, more fortunate in its awards from the referee, annexed the most bitter conflict of the season. A battle royal from start to finish, the issue was settled by a toss from the fifteen foot mark. Fordham showed surprising strength but succumbed to Krinsky’s uncanny field shots. West Point was otherwise inclined for in an extra session affair, the future generals outmanouvering Captain Feigin’s warriors by a matter of three points. Brown and Yale were taken into camp during the New England jaunt and soon after hitting the city, Brook- lyn Poly was swept into the bag mainly through Slam” Lamm’s brilliant foul-shooting. Syracuse was smeared late in February and the stage was put in order for the N. Y. U. fracas. It is needless to outcome of this contest. The Violet, in every way more physically capable of playing the game, again inflicted a scathing defeat.

The success of their efforts has re- moved one of the chief objections of our Alumni against the addition of football to our scope of activity. In the interim. Prof. Williamson was waging a one-sided battle with the other members of the F. A. C., who were decidedly averse to the proposition. As a proof of his contention that the students of the College really wanted and would be willing to support football, a referendum was held during one of the regular weekly gather- ings in the Great Mall of the College. Fifteen hundred and forty-three promised their aid. The faculty com- mittee finally agreed to meet in general conclave with the students and the meeting was held soon after. Several important questions were thoroughly discussed and satis factorily disposed of. Several weeks later at a joint meeting of the Student, Faculty. Alumni, and Athletic Association Advisory committees, ways and means were concocted for making a Frosh eleven a reality. Prof. Williamson was de- tailed to make up a schedule and at the present writing, has already booked the N. Y. U. yearlings. New Utrecht, Fordham Prep, and Stuyvesant. Replies arc daily expected from other city schools. As a possible means of drawing a great part of the football material now in High Schools to City College next year, an open letter has been sent to the editors of the various school weeklies informing them of our prospects for a gridiron team. A feasible and simple solution of the “money problem was adopted. The sale of combination season tickets to the Alumni has proved popular and assures us of their hearty support. The appropriation of S3.500 by the Hoard of Estimate for a screen to be erected about the field during the summer months will assure a substan- tial financial return from the spectators. Following is what the “Proxy himself opines about the matter: I take pleasure in expressing my warm approval of football as a college sport and my belief in its wholesomcncss and value to any institution where it is well played. When I say “well played I am not thinking of the development of a champion team, but rather of playing the game enthusi- astically and squarely and enlisting the entire student body in support of the eleven. If these condi- tions are fulfilled, football is not only a most useful discipline and experience for those who play, but a force in promoting unity, loyalty and sportsmanship among all the students and in enhancing the reputation of the College.

The Univers- ities of North Carolina, West Virgina and Niagara were among the strangers who were accorded a reception in the Stadium. Two Hundred end Thirty-Four Ttt Hundred and Thirty-Five As experienced the preceding year, the workouts held in the gym failed to serve their purpose. Few pros- pective players reported for these preliminary training sessions. Obvious reason—our pill-tosscrs were still busy on the court. The shift of activities, however, to the outdoor field found them ready to take up their new burdens on the diamond. Captain Murray was on hand to receive the offerings of our veteran slabstcrs, Axtell, Feigin, and Anderson. Tubby Raskin and Hob Kelly cavorted about the corner sacks with their customary spryness, while Frank Salz and Archie Pep” Hahn, members of last season's Frosh aggregation, completed a fast, snappy in- field with considerable batting strength. The gardeners presented a difficult problem. Jackie Nadel, a flash in the field and always sure of knock- ing down a fly in his neighborhood proved weak with the stick. Littcnbcrg and Eiscnstcin were similarly effected, while Martin and Wrenn fell rather short at both ends of the game. The use of Axtell and Anderson in the gar- den, when not slated for slab duty aided materially in patching up the trouble. Perhaps internal friction between the several members of the team or just poor pitching by our moundsmen may have been responsible for the cratic performances of Mac’s proteges on the diamond. At times nary a ball would escape our pseudo inficldcrs—at others, their laxity would prove disastrous. To wit. the iN‘. Y. U. and Columbia ir.elees. The opener with West Point found Axtell in the box for C. C. Airtight pitching and flashy fielding se- cured a three run lead early in the game. In the fourth frame, however, the Army sluggers nipped Fred for two runs, driving him from the mound in the seventh with a bevy of swats. Chick was equally ineffective, two tallies following his appearance on the field. Then came N. Y. U. intent on avenging last year’s defeat. Chick drew the assignment, but was removed in the fourth inning in favor of Axtell when six of our opponents crossed the plate. The latter allowed them only two scratch hits during the remaining five innings. Manhattan next visited the College to cross bats in the first of their scheduled games with the Varsity. Anderson twirled excellent ball and drew down our initial victory of the season. The Columbia fray proved a heartbreaker to the Lavender fans who visited South field. We beg to be excused from further detail. A fortnight’s respite, due to bad weather, conditioned the men for the Brooklyn Poly fiasco. Feigin held the Brooklynites powerless while the College batters found the opposing slabstcr for eight hits and seven runs. The New York Aggies were drubbed 16-1 at Farmingdale, while Scton Hall annexed a close contest played in the Stadium. Charter Day exercises were properly augmented by a game with the University of North Carolina. The big raw-boned Southerners, made our ball tossers seem pigmies. Axtell sick in bed, Mac decided to use Tubby in the box—Feigin worked at first. His admirable pitching limited the visitors to three runs despite the “mean way in which they handled the “sticks. The following day St. Francis was con- veniently trimmed and Manhattan was duped a second time the next week. Statistics on the individual accomplishments arc not available at this early writing but we surmise that Tubby, closely followed by Hahn, is hitting at a .300 gait. Anderson and Murray arc also doing efficient work with the bat.

Only three times were they balked in their endeavors to carry off the bacon. It was while practicing with the Varsity that the Lavender youngsters were inbibed with that spirit of go-and-get-’em, a spirit so characteristic of the Holman school. AND THEY DID. In Rosonowitz, Salz, Kdclstcin and Prager, one found the excellent stamina and hard playing qualities of good basketball men. The insertion of that little bundle of offensive Capt. Jack Nadcl, turned a hitherto unpolished group into a smooth-working machine-like team. Nadcl possesses an unusual eye for caging the ball and accounted for the greater part of the Freshmen tallies.

One would call it tough luck. In Bluestein, Weidsberg and Sternberg the yearlings had a reliable pitching staff. Rosonowitz, the for- mer Clinton backstop, scooped them up behind the bat. Lenkowsky at first, Abrevaya at second, with Weiss - berg or Sternberg at short when rot engaged in mound duty and Reiser at third constituted a well-playing, hard hitting infield, lngoglio, Oshinsky and Bluestein took care of the garden and seldom left the high ones pass. At the present writing it seems as if the cubs had once more started on their relentless way. April 2....................... Newton High ...... April ’ ......................'Boys' High ..........

Derby Crandall, Jr. George Bisgicr, ’21 Beginning early in the fall, with a goodly number of veterans, Lieut. Crandall produced, for the first time, an indoor mile relay team that took two firsts and one second place out of the four times it started, in each case running against the best club and college teams in the metropolitan district. Too short a preliminary practice period prevented more than three men from getting into sufficiently good shape to run in individual races; but those three more than made up for this deficiency. With Capt. Bisgicr, '21, and Frank Horne, of the same class, and Sidney P.erau, '23, in the running, the Lavender was brought out in front in five important races and second on two occasions. Of all these individual performances none, however, was more gratifying than Capt. Bis- gicr's winning the Junior Metropolitan Indoor Championship at 300 yards, bringing to the College the first A. A. U. title it has ever held. The season so auspiciously begun was as successfully completed outdoors, in spite of heavy losses of men. Two of the best men, one of them the crack long-distance runner of the College, left for another institution; an- other took sick early in the season; still another had to stop running because of a weak heart; the best high jump- er had to perform with a spiked right knee. Yet, with all these handicaps, the team won two of its four scheduled meets very easily and lost another by a small margin. In the first two contests the team depended for the greater part of its points on the track events, with Capt. Bisgicr, Fagin, ’22, and Factor, ’23, winning consistently in the century, furlong, and quarter mile events; Fagin and Milutinovich, ’22, doing the same in the half, while Levinson, '21, Bonyay, '22, and Patten, ’24, placed well in the long distances. The last two meets saw the development of a really balanced team, one that, in addition to its runners, could take care of itself in the field. Glassgold, ’22, proved an excellent hurdler and broad jumper when pro- perly acclimated to the sport. Rosenwasser, ’23, and Barnett, ’21, showed that they could throw the discus well enough to place up front, Schapiro, '23, and Goldberg, '21, easily took care of the shot put, and Lindroth, ’21, Ashworth, '21, and Rosenwasser performed so well in the high jump that, against Fordham for example, nine points—first, second and third—came to the Lavender via this event. In reserve Lieut. Crandall had Rosen, ’22, and Jones, '22. At least three records were broken during the outdoor season. Against Stevens. Capt. Bisgicr, running in three events and taking first in each, lowered the mark for the century by two-fifths of a second and that for the “440” by three-fifths of a second, the new marks being 10.1-5 seconds for the “100” and 52.4-5 seconds for the quarter-mile. The third record to go by the boards was that of the mile-run which, although finishing second, Dave Levinson, ’21, lowered by twenty-one seconds to 4:59.4-5 minutes. 1Q21 CCNY sAV msm Ttto lluirdrfj «nil Fortj-Fom Taro Hundred and Fartj-Five Manager Vescll, ’22 HANDBALL TtAM Cib n Captainf Blum, ’21 Levinson, ’21 C.

Harkavy Levin Kraus The close of the 1920-21 swimming season found our Natators once more snugly nestled in the cellar position of the league. Eight times were they defeated by members of this Intercollegiate group. Quoting Dani- els of the Sun, we arc a bit out of our class” and though it may be a solace to our injured pride to 1« called plucky and gritty, still it is not proper that we endeavor to keep company with the fast ones.” Until we can beat colleges of our own standing in the swimming world, it would be advisable to withdraw from the league. An encouraging factor of the past year tending to prove an increasing interest in swimming was the con- sistancy with which the members of the squad practiced. Diligent work under Coach MacKenzie’s watchful eye moulded Joscphcr into one of the best divers seen at the College for some time; while Fink’s repeated attempts from the box marked him as a capable plunger. Two City College records were broken during the course of the season. In the home engagement with Co- lumbia. Goldfish Lehrman lowered the time for the 50 yard swim to twenty-five seconds flat, four-fifths of a second lower than the world’s record for that distance. In the Penn contest at Philadelphia, Fink “waylaid the old plunge mark by floating seventy feet. A word of appreciation is due Captain Ashworth.—a capable, well-liked fellow, with the ability to inspire in his teammates the true spirit of College service,—a hard worker and although not a constant winner in the water, a steady performer. Also, a word of gratitude to Kraus, Thuor, Levin, Murray. Haas, and McTaguc for their untiring efforts. For the first time in several years, a Freshman team came to be a reality. Members of the T. H. H. champion amphibians who had entered the College, formed the nucleus for a speedy yearling group. In prepara- tion for big things next fall, Bob Harvey, '25, was elected to pilot the Freshman team to the top of their league —we hope!

'23 Harry Weinstein, ’23 For the first time in many years, a City College player has been chosen as a member of the mythical All- Intercollegiate sextet. Captain Menkes was the popular choice of the New York City papers for center-for- ward on the imaginary group of all-stars. Using his height and weight capably against his opponents, Menkes earned the plaudits of his collcgcmates with the excellent performances that won him the coveted honor. For a short time, he topped the league scorers; but dropped back to second place at the close of the season. Met by a band of veteran Polo-men at the opening of the year. Coach MacKcnzic had little difficulty in presenting a fast, scrappy line-up. Drilled thoroughly in the fundamentals of tackling and taught the value of teamwork, Mac’s” proteges submerged Penn in their opening engagement. Prospects of winning the Intercol- legiate title, however, were soon effaced, for the successive bookings with Princeton. Columbia and Yale left us further behind in the race. The Lavender SEADOGS,” despite the superb playing of several of its members, proved no match for the fast, well-trained athletes of those institutions. The Quakers were defeated a second time when the poloists made a jump to Philly to fulfill their schedule obligation. Ornstcin, Dondcro, Seligman, Hayter, Filling and Mulreadv with Caprain Menkes constituted the regu- lars. Ornstcin proved a heady goaltcndcr, carefully sizing up his opponent before clamping on his tenacious head-lock. Dondcro, similarly, was gifted with a deadly strangle and worked havoc with the opposing backs. Seligman, Hayter, Lilting and Mulrcady formed the bulk of our defense, their strength and weight fitting them for underwater conflicts. We cannot close without a word of gratitude to Coach MacKcnzic for his untiring efforts with the Polo team. With practically the entire personnel back in College next fall and with Captain Menkes to lead them again, we arc confident that “Mac” will be able to mould a non-beatablc combination. J.
