Without the valuable suggestions afforded by previous volumes of The Microcosm their task would have been herculean. They trust, how- ever, that the readers will view with indulgence any departures from the old standards. Whatever new features have been introduced and whatever characteristics of previous volumes have been eliminated they believe to be for the best. seven To Stephen pierce 3)uggan Teacher and Friend This volume is respectfully dedicated eight 4U . ffitr Cxillrxjr of tbr (Citv of Jfettr $hrk (Dffirr o£ ibt Ifirt xjbcnt 6T. NICHOLAS 7ERRACC AND OMC HUNDRED THIRTY HIMTH STRICT inarch 29, 1923. To the Class of 1923: The Spartan mother was a heroic figure. She forgot agonizing pains, remembering only that she was giving a courageous son or an enduring daughter to Sparta. The memory of the privations she suffered in the upbringing of her children was soon lost. She dreamed only of making them worthy of Sparta. And when the day came to give her son to the state, she suppressed her grief, and sent him forth with the proud prayer, Go, njy son I Come back with your shield or on it.” For four years you have been the grave concern of your College. She has labored and fought for every advantage that might make you a worthier son of your city; and because of her labors and sacri- fices and of your own achievement, she has developed no little attachment to you. But the hour for departure is ap- proaching. Alma I ater takes courage in the thought that you have dedicated yourself, through four years of preparation, to useful service in our city. She rejoices in what she did for you, and sends you forth with the of service. eleven twelve thirteen asiw m'i fourteen fifteen sixteen seventeen eighteen nineteen turn Iy Poarb of fErusitees Thomas W.

PROFF.SSOR THOMPSON thirty The Men of ’23 SING then. 0 Muse, of these far-off half-forgotten things, and battles long ago! Rehearse the glorious deeds and of the olden Titans tell me. that when Eternity Rock shall have mouldered away—yea, e’en after the tribe of Bonncy is no more—children may listen wild-eyed to tales of these mighty men of ’23 . . . Tell how all the domains of King Rcdmikc gave their choicest youth to form the mighty host and how even from the abiding place of the dead. Brook- lyn, beloved of Morpheus, came many men of valor (chief of whom was earth- shaking Shapiro, the cunning teacher of history). With loud acclaim were they welcomed by She, who looketh both up and down: awe-compelling was the greet- ing of brazen-throated Mac, and so fascinating Burchard’s tales that great 1-ouie, 'tis said, for threescore seconds held his peace—a marvel which transcendeth all other deeds of Olympians. Now monsters lived in those days, savage creatures with human form, vul- pine hearts and the heads of wild asses. Sophs” was the name of this ill-favored tribe, with whom heroic '23 waged strife so remorseless that its mere mention appalls the decadent youth of modern times. (Indeed, to this day entering classes enact mimic conflicts in commemoration of these olden bloody battles; but such modern exercises have less substance than consomme which one hath made by boiling the shadow of the wing of a chick that starvation hath killed.) Valiant were the leaders of those days, skilled in the stealing of tables. Men still sing of Herb Gadc and of Marty Jcrkowitz, who, in the course of time, deserted his class and now, within the roped-off square, triumphantly wields the cestus (changed is his name to Mcjcrk). And Johnny Flicgcl there was, leader of the sinuous snake dance. But mightiest of all was the Strong Arm Squad, six men, of whom the slightest exceeded in weight eleven score pounds. Hither and yon they rushed, wherever the battle was thickest, and great was the slaughter riiey wrought. Tell, Muse, of ponderous Shapiro, chief over these tyrannosauri, when alone in the enemy alcove the attack of all '22 he withstood—not only in the alcove remained, but of its hundred occupants cleared it! In Harlem was a temple to Thespis, the “Opera House” men called it. Once did guileful Antovillc, most cunning of all '22 men, speak winged words to the theatre's director, contracting for that evening to furnish skillful amateur actors. Of the flower of ’23 he planned by stealth to seize a dozen, and into galling service to press them. His scheme succeeded—the luckless stammering Fresh- men were thrust ’fore the staring eyes of the audience. Terror seized the men of '23, congealed was the flow of their blood. . . . When lo! through the gates of the theatre poured rescuing hordes of their comrades, vengeful heroes who recked not of the place wherein they were fight- thirty-tWO LEO KLAUBER President of the Student Council; Captain of the 1923 Basketball Team Most Popular fi }C 1023 ing. Up the aisles they surged, throwing the house into panic. On the boarded stage itself sought they out Antoville’s followers. Fierce raged the combat that night—loud were the shrieks of the audience (who knew not the cause of this uproar). At last the battle was ended by the blue-coated minions of Redmike, but not till the Sophomores thoroughly knew the taste of rankling defeat. And tell yet another talc, of a struggle more frenzied than that one: Ended was the tug-o’-war, wherein the mighty sinews of '23 had availed not ’gainst fickle Fortune. But though theirs was the coveted victory, the craven Sopho- mores now lied the field in haste, barring themselves from pursuit in the castle whose lord is Woll. Nothing daunted, the Freshmen followed. Vain was their hope to shatter the massive iron gates! Meanwhile the besieged had discovered hoses of large dimensions, with which they shot torrents of water on all who dared to come near them. So great was the rush of the water that, like straw, the burly attackers were torn from their points of vantage and lightly tossed aside. But wise beyond their years were the Freshmen. Through subterranean passages toiled '23, until the crash of falling doors in their rear foretold to the Sophomores their approaching doom. After its own manner of fighting was ’22 attacked—with countless four-inch hoses before whose roaring flood neither Sophomore nor Hygiene Building escaped destruction. Ever higher rose the swirling waters, ever fiercer fought the contending hosts, till, as night began to fall, someone saw the stately anger-shaken form of Bonney swimming through the broken gate. . . . Sing of the wrath of Dean Brownson, of the awful dooms he dispensed! Tragic were the months that followed, full of woeful enforced inactivity which crazed the mind, driving some men even to study. Came a new term, and with it an end to verdant Freshmanhood. Many were the doughty warriors who were now no more. Some had fallen before the thunderbolts which issue from Room 121, some had been lured to ex- tinction in law and mcd. school, some had slipped into that Tartarus which awaits the good and the bad of us alike—that unspeakably loathsome existence called holding down a job.” Conflicts raged again. The presumptuous youths of '24 were taught their abys- mal inferiority, their transgressions were duly punished, and the autumn sun saw strange things done to a group of Frosh named Zukcrnick. Yet sick of heart were our blood-craving heroes, bemoaning the ease of their triumph, for the olden bloody traditions had already begun to fade. Nor knew they then of the dismal worst—that in years to come Albert and Dave and Zuk and count- less more of these striplings would lay unhallowed claim to the title of “ ’23 man”! And once again was Louie made President, man knoweth not how or why. The usual dances were danced, the accustomed banquets were eaten (wild was thirty-four ftye 1025 RicrociCT g tubent Council Snsftgnia 1923 MAJOR Professor William B. Guthrie Albert H.

But Sophomoric minds were turning to weightier things—to women and “Campus” and sports (in ascending degree of importance). Having humbled the Freshmen’s boasted quintet, and settled old scores in the Carnival (of which Saturnalia was Valency the leader, he the sweet singer, the bard of the purple Andes.” Great, in truth, are the virtues of a summer’s traveling), '23 winged its way to upper classdom. Many, many were the doughty warriors who were now no more. Some had fallen before the thunderbolts which issue from Room 121, some had been lured to extinction in law and mcd. school, some had slipped into that Tartarus which awaits the good and the bad of us alike—that unspeakably loathsome existence called holding down a job.” But for those who remained, how merry was life! Like sparkling new wine the blood effervesced in their veins; unheeded all thoughts save that ’twas well with the world and that to live was good. Intoxicated beyond restraint were all —which may be why they yet another time raised Louie to the Presidency. Nor was joy in any way confined during the rapturous days and nights of Junior Week. Scorning the rcpellcntly sensuous appeal of such entertainment as the Barrymores’, the theatre party was stimulated to philosophic meditation by a performance of Bluebeard’s Eighth Wife.” No less Platonically temperate was the Prom which followed at the Hotel Pennsylvania, when Cupid all evening ex- hausted himself trying vainly to wean Sakolsky away from the volume of Kant which he stonily studied. But merriest of all was the banquet night, with its baker’s dozen of diners. A well-known major was present, ready of wit and skillful in rolling the cubes. Of his jokes history is silent, but ’tis very plainly recorded that '23 scored finan- cial victory over West Point that night. Vet stay—For extremely painful is it to speak here of matters financial. Jealous, no doubt, the gods were of the joyful days that had been and they griev- ously burdened our heroes with deficit pressing and great. Gray from care grew the officers’ locks, metaphorical wolves howled loudly at the alcove’s figurative door. But of such sordid cares we stop not to sing, passing over that dance of Klein’s with its fifty-three cents of profit, neglecting even to mention how, with precious gold nuggets from Louie’s mouth, creditors at length were appeased. . Months of waiting dragged on. till dawned at last that glorious day when the class could call itself “Senior.” Many, many, many were the doughty warriors who were now no more. Some had fallen before the thunderbolts which issue from Room 121, some had been lured to extinction in law and mcd. school, some had slipped into that thirty-six GEORGE SHAPIRO President of the A. A. Best Athlete Tartarus which awaits the good and the had of us alike—that unspeakably loath- some existence called holding down a job.” Hard for most were the days which followed, filled with ominous fears wherein sixteenths of a point bulked large. Ed studes flocked in droves to hear Examiners’ lectures and paled at thought of duties soon to be theirs, biologists earnestly toiled, dreaming of impossible fellowships; only among them who sought the B.S.S. was there peace and freedom from care. And now. reflectively stroking their long white beards, the '23 sages looked back, finding that a very good class had been theirs. Many the jewels they added to fair Alma Mater’s crown. Athletes had they in scores, heroes of many a contest. With proudest boast they point to Shapiro, whose broad breast bears four letters his quadruple ex- cellence in sport to proclaim. Nor is the A.A. Presidency, which he adorned, an honor lightly to be won. Next in fame is red-topped Klaubcr, without equal in dribbling and basketball court gymnastics. (What in future games will compare with the cunning cx- Captain's tumbles?) And that brazen-throated center, the voluble Jimmy Curran, looms too high easily to be passed over. In hurling with crooked curves the ball was Captain Axtcll most skillful. Glory also to Archie Hahn, player par excellence, a beloved giant was he! Joscphcr, lord of the springboard, was leader of a team not nearly as bad as previous years’ had been. As mainstay of the sextette Dondcro shone, ably sup- ported by Tanncnbaum. Fleet of foot beyond belief were the men of ’23; unending the succession of championships gained for the class by Rosemvasser, Factor, Bayer and an imposing list of others. Equally high distinction did they win in fields intellectual. Aronson and Bercs were Campus Editors, and Sakolsky guided the Mercury—as to how he guided it different opinions arc held by Boccaccio and Justice Ford. Louie (what- ever his last name is) and Leo Klaubcr, in turn, presided over the Student Council. And finally, not unknown to fame were Greenberg. Fass, Flamm and Mi- chaels— utility men” whose varied activity proved indispensable to ’23. A stately dance at the Waldorf, a farewell banquet and the revived Nu- meral Lights celebration prepared the way for Commencement Day and the bitter parting that followed. Gone now were the last of the doughty warriors. Some few had fallen before the thunderbolts which issue from Room 121, many others had been lured to extinction in law and med. school, and all were inevitably slipping into that Tartarus which awaits the good and the bad of us alike—that unspeakably loath- some existence called “holding down a job.” thirty-eight A I 1023 ffixamm i 1 1 rr.SN MKSS1NG DONDKKO IIOCIIBKRC DEUTSCII XI.I.NK J'ASS I8COI.

In 1917 the technical courses were organized into a separate Department of Engineering. In 1919 the Board of Trustees authorized the reorganization of the work and all the courses in Engineering and Technology were put in a School of Technology with its own dean and faculty, with the subsequent approval of complete courses of study in four branches of Engineering: Chemical. Civil, Electrical and Mechanical. The school is now giving a series of ten Building Courses in the evening session. This scries, when completely developed, will consist of twenty courses. In addition to the large group of building course students, there arc a number of matriculated students in tlie evening session working toward engineering degrees. Since the School of Technology was established thirteen men have graduated with engineering de- grees. The group which is graduated this June indicates the rapid growth of the school and gives great promise for the future. eighty-seven MAX AMRON B.S., M.E. “Mac Engineering Society; A. S. M.

Bars hay Harry Shapiro Meyer Newman President Vice President Secretary Treasurer Seryea nt-at-Anns THE Class of 1923 started on its active career shortly before the 1922 class made its exit; and im- mediately, upon resumption of recitations in September, stood ready to shoulder the burden of school activity and with what spirit the class went at the job is shown by its accomplishments. Every activity was ardently supported by the Seniors. The “Reporter” staff. Student Council and library owe their success mainly to the men who held their seniority rights as sacred privileges. On the eighteenth of November the class made itself both conspicuous and popular by entertaining the school at tlw College Gym. On April 21 the class showed its line spirit by canceling all plans for a spring term fete, going to the annual school banquet en masse instead. This threw its whole sup- port with the Student Organization and the Evening Session. The class has not merely supported extra-curricular work to the l est of its ability, but has sought to establish fairness and tranquillity in every branch of activity. The outstanding feature of this policy was the effort made to gain recognition for the graduates in Accountancy at Commence- ment. The matter was taken up with the authorities and much has been done towards receiving mention of the Diploma men at the exercises. This will stand out a a monument to the Class of 1923. ninety-one ANTHONY S. N. ADAMO Graduate in Accountancy. MAURICE AMCHIN “Moe” Graduate in Accountancy. Accounting Club.

Junior Festival Week was the big event of the year. The Theatre Party hugely enjoyed “Little Nellie Kelly” and, after the show, more diversion was sought in the Village. Many Juniors arc of the opinion that because it was the night of their Basketball Party, the ’Varsity defeated Brown University in a thrilling contest. The Junior Promenade was held at the Hotel Commodore. And what a bevy of beauty was there; what a time of gay festivity! bar into the night could the soothing strains of the music and the gliding of couples be heard, and sorry they were when the time came for leaving.

The year was replete with the historic Fresh- Soph scraps . . . until the supremacy of '25 was assured. '25 entered the Fresh-Soph events with a great deal of zest and. to prove its supremacy over '26, proceeded to win the tug-of-war, pushball and cane spree. The only event of consequence that the class did lose was the Hag rush, but this setback was not enough to keep the Student Council Banner from its possession. The Sophomores also won the debating banner by defeat- ing their rivals in the annual debate. In the realm of athletics, however, the upper class was not so successful. The Sophomores won the baseball game and the tennis, but lost the basketball game in the last ten seconds of play, and consequently the Athletic Association Banner. It is only fair to say. however, that this was the first time that any class was not permitted to have men on its team who had made the ’Varsity squad. one hundred eleven THE CLASS OF 1926 1 f jtijC , 1023 ttrwrn KLEIN COLOSTRI N TARU0 I'ARSONS JESKOWITZ 111.OCX MEYERS KRAUT '26 CLASS COUNCIL The Class of 1926 JOSEPH HERO CANHKI.I.

Rules were enforced so well that within a week, red cravats, varying from scarlet to maroon, met the eye at every turn. The alcoves witnessed many a gory battle, comparable, as the Cam- pus put it, to Thermopylae and Alamo.” One thing that seemed lacking was real class spirit. In every Fresh-Soph event, the same handful of men represented the class. Nevertheless, every contest, from debating to the tug-of- war, was fought to the bitter end. Upper classmen and class officers succeeded in mustering to- gether about two hundred Freshmen for the flag rush. Outnumbering the Sophs two to one, the Yearlings gained the flag after one minute and forty-seven seconds of desperate fighting. After it was all over, the Stadium was filled with tics, shirts, trousers, caps and shoes. The struggle for the Athletic Association Banner was long and hitter. The Class of 1926 won the swimming and track meets, but not until the whistle put an end to the exciting basket- ball game was this award assured to the Class. Without doubt, however, the crowning event of '26’s career was its Feed. Menu pleasing, spirit overflowing, speeches short, what more could he desired? Furthermore, it was planned and finished before the Sophomores even heard about it. one hundred thirteen THE CLASS OF 1927 II El. LINGER PECKER WHITFIELD POST HKLSKIX E. SIEGEL UERNSTEIN M. SIEGEL M.OCK '27 CLASS COUNCIL The Class of 1927 SPRING TKRM Max Siegkl President THE Gass of 1927 has been at City College less than one semester, but already is well versed in the ways of the College. Its members, voluntarily or otherwise, obeyed the Freshmen rules from the day of its entrance and, although but half a class, it more than held its own in its scraps with '26. In the intcrclass track meet, several '27 men placed first in various events and the class finished in third place. With sufficient practice, many of the men will be able to make the Varsity in time. At the date of this writing, the Freshman baseball team has played six games and has won them all, allowing their opponents an average of less than two runs a game. The chances for a crack football team arc good. There arc many men in the class who were stars on their high school elevens. ■ The first social affair held by the class was a Dance. On May 5, all Freshmen who were «able to come, and many from outside of the class, were present in the Gym to step to the latest jazz music. This term saw the largest number of candidates trying out for the “Campus,” most of whom were '27 men, and in all other fields of extra-curricular activities this newest of classes is well represented. one hundred fifteen The Associate Alumni of the College of the City of New York (Incorporated) OFFICERS Robert F.

Roberts, '19 Secretary John S. Battell, '73 H istorian Howard C. Green, '02 Associate Historian THE Associate Alumni of the College of the City of New York was organized by the Class of '53, the first class graduated from the Free Academy. On March 17. 1913, the Association was incorporated under the laws of the State of New York. There arc three classes of members: Active, Associate and Honorary. Graduates and former students paying dues are Active Members. Any former student who has completed one year of credits at the College and whose class has not been graduated is eligible to Associate Membership, and, upon graduation of his class, automatically becomes an Active Member. The dues arc Three Dollars; life membership Fifty Dollars. Members in good standing arc supplied with the City College Quarterly and the monthly “Alumni numbers” of the Campus. The corporation holds one regular business meeting and one public banquet each year. The last public banquet was held at the Hotel Commodore on November 25th, and was attended by over 600. President Robert F. Wagner, '98, presided and the speakers were: Professor Purges Johnson of Yassar, Dean Brownson, Judge Samuel Greenbaum 72, Arthur Guitcrman '91. George H. Taylor, Jr., '92, Dr. Walter M. Brickncr '93, and William E. Grady '97. In 1919, by contribution of certain classes and by the personal contribution of certain Alumni, an Alumni Bureau was established at the College for the purpose of stimulating and organizing Alumni interests and activities, collecting addresses, archives, etc., and generally representing the Alumni at the College. During the first two years of its existence this Bureau had proven to be of such great value to the Alumni that the Association had taken over its financial maintenance. one hundred sixteen Directors TO SERVE FOR LIFE Everett P.

But he, with a chuckle, replied That maybe it couldn't, but he would be one Who wouldn't say so till he tried. So he buckled right in, with a trace of a grin On his face. If he worried, he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn’t be done, and he did it. AX I) lie did it far exceeding our wildest hopes. That house on East Fiftieth street, with its foyer and dining hall, library and lounge, billiard room and card room, gym and lockers and showers, from Artie Taft’s genial presence greeting you as you enter to the radio on the roof, everything was brought into being over- night just as magically as ever that palace the genic built for Aladdin. But far more lastingly is it builded. For years and years there had been talk of the need of a house where the alumni could gather socially, of the crying lack of opportunity for just that thing; but there was nothing more than talk. Every time some pessimist got busy with pencil and paper, figuring the cost of city lots and of construction, or of rents and taxes and the rest, heads wagged gravely and the talk quickly ceased. Especially when the war came along and in its train the high prices that still cause us concern. But college is college, and the bond formed there is not easily or readily severed, and when the crowd started to meet once a month in the Tower rooms for supper, the Twentieth Century Club grew from month to month, until the Tower had to lie abandoned for lack of space. Talk of a clubhouse not only revived, but strange symptoms appeared that had never been seen before, for instance, the Twentieth Century was actually dealing with real money. The old City College Club, homeless, mcmbcrlcss, apparently past the moribund stage, Ixad tried to reach out from its grave to catch the new youngster, but without success, until, until, well until one Saturday late in 1920 at Stewart’s, on Park Place, Bernie Naumburg, who couldn’t be kept out of the present century, suggested that we get the club first and members after. It sounded wild enough to appeal to the imagination, and impossible enough to challenge effort, so the fools rushed in. and three weeks later we held a luncheon in the new clubhouse, and the rest everyone knows. There in the heart of the City is the Club drawing to itself tlic College’s youth as they come down from her heights, keeping ever alive within them the lofty ideals and high resolves Alma Mater instilled. otic hundred turenty Varsity Club WEARERS OF MAJOR VARSITY LETTERS Theodore Axtell 1923 Leo Klauber James Curran William Prager Abel Elk William Ringel Arthur N.

A. BOARD The Year in Sports-—A Review NOT A BLR among the Lavender’s sports achievements of the past year were the re-establishment of football as a varsity sport and the winning for the second consecutive year of the metropolitan collegiate basketball' championship. Other sports kept apace. The baseball team and the track men performed up to the usual varsity standard. Minor sports teams worked diligently and consistently in the pool, on the cinder paths, on the mat, and on the handball and tennis courts. Never in the past lias the athletic prowess of the “sturdy sons of City College” been more clearly shown. Football became a reality last fall after a fifteen-year absence from the list of Lavender athletic activities. The first varsity eleven, while it did not turn in an impressive record of victories, made a creditable showing in the face of overwhelm- ing odds. The game with the Violet, conquerors of the Columbia eleven, found the one hundred twenty-three ••• the 1023 fflxam lavender in top form. The Hall of Fame men were lucky to get a lone touchdown against their traditional foes. The work of the varsity eleven gives much promise for the future. The 1922 team centered its attention on defensive play. Next fall, with more emphasis on offensive play. Captain Jack Schtierman’s cohorts should have no difficulty in ending up with a balance in the winning column. The new schedule is an exceedingly difficult one for an inexperienced team and may prove too much for Joe Neville’s moleskin wearers. The basketball team held its own against the increasing popularity of football and duplicated the 1921-22 five’s brilliant record in once more annexing the metro- politan intercollegiate crown. Nat Holman's midget marvels this year were recog- nized as one of the leading Eastern court combinations, on a par (or rather far above par!) with West Point and Yale, the Intercollegiate League kings. Syracuse was the only five to score a win over the Lavender and that one point victory of the Orangemen was later more than avenged when the Salt City five took a beating from Nat Holman's flashes on the college court. Cornell, runner-up for the league title; Dickinson, conquerors of Penn State; St. Francis, Eastern Catholic champs, and N. Y. U., Columbia and Fordham all bowed lx-fore Captain Red” Klauber and his diminutive cage artists. 1924 looks like another Eastern championship year for the Lavender. With a veteran five Captain Doe Edelstcin’s men look to make it three years straight for the titular honors. The baseball team achieved distinction at the expense of second raters and lost regularly to teams of really first class ability. With Teddy Axtcll pitching in top form and Curly Wigdeson an effective emergency boxman the varsity could have won easily were it not for the complete absence of any hitters. In addition to weaknesses at the plate, the team fell down regularly before big games” with a consequent increase to the list of defeats chalked against it. The swimmers had their most successful season in a decade. The elimination of the plunge and 220 and tlx substitution of the fancy swim events proved a great boon to the Lavender natators. The water poloists were not up to usual form. Captain Shapiro had a squad of capable individual players but lack of effective team play and inadequate practice were the undoing of the team. Track and tennis were up to the usual standard of achievement, the trackmen suffering defeat in every start, while the racket wiclders won their annual victory from Brooklyn Poly tech. Cross country and wrestling were not very successful. The harriers went through their schedule with only one victory. Wrestling, one of the Lavender’s two-year old entries in the race for athletic fame, was more successful. The mat artists did not win often but their hard work and the fact that most of the men one hundred twenty-four BERG FINK BENJAMIN LEVY KATZ FL'LD SCHWARTZ KATZ ZUKF.RNICK ARONSON SAKOLSKY SI GE1.SC )l 1FFER PRESS BUREAU will be back next season gives City College fandom greater hopes for victories when Willie Finkcl’s grapplcrs try their holds. The college received into its folds a new sport when the R. O. T. C. rifle team entered into intercollegiate competition. 1926 did not turn out any world beaters but the yearling teams on the gridiron, the basketball court, the track and the diamond gave very good accounts of themselves. The varsity coaching family received a very welcome addition in the person of Doc” Parker, former U. of P. star, who coached three successful first year major sport teams. To the credit of the college athletic authorities be it said that eligibility rules and scholastic requirements were enforced and that only men who were bona fide students were allowed to represent the Lavender on the field of sport. one hundred twenty-five II.TAN KIN BA l M LI INO WIT CLANCY MCCAftTNYCBOWXMIUI SCOY1L dlIMftIKC M lB.WILLf AM CO ACM MAC Kt « II COAC Mv IVILLE TUIXMlVAl'Kt C 1VIY lAim, i.

C. N. Y. men—metamorphosed from the most visionary and sustained of dreams into an actual reality last September. 1922-1923, accordingly, was written large and golden in City College history. The return of the great gridiron game, after a sad absence of more than fifteen years, had been accomplislicd the year before, but in the modest guise of a freshman team, and it was not until the past season that the first varsity team was established. It was in 1906 that City College’s football dream first began, for it was in that year that the great sport was abolished. At one time, indeed, the sport seemed about to be resurrected from its oblivion. This was in 1917. Hut the war, breaking out in this country and shattering among other things, with its cataclysm, all collegiate sports, ruined whatever chances foot- ball had of being restored to the athletic curriculum. With the return of peace and the gradual resumption of normal activity, how- ever, another campaign was started which, handled by some of the mo' t able men the college lias ever had, was carried on with a vigor, perseverance and unanimity which surpassed all previous attempts. A referendum on the question of the re-establishment of football was put before the students in 1920. The result was an overwhelming, practically unanimous, vote hi favor of restoration. In 1921, fifteen years after its abolition, football again became a college sport, a freshman team being established to serve as the founda- tion for future varsity teams. At the end of the freshman football season preparations were instituted for the first varsity team for the following season. A schedule of seven games for the 1922 gridiron season was announced by Professor Williamson, secretary of the Faculty Athletic Committee, and City College men could feel a glow of pleasure and satisfaction at the thought that their long dream and fond hopes were now certain of realization. It was now time for the appointment of a football coach. The freshman team had gone through its season successfully, it is true, but without the services of a regular coach, relying on whatever coaching was available within the college itself. It was therefore with great eagerness and curiosity that the appointment of a foot- ball coach was awaited by the college. Together with the announcement of the appointment of Coach Neville came the news that spring football practice would be held to give the new mentor an opportunity to acquaint himself with and to size up his material, and, also, to hold some early drill in fundamentals. In April the first spring football practice in the history of the college was held. For fully a month a hundred candidates for the team went through their preliminary drill. Spring football practice was quite a novelty at the college, but a warmly welcome and pleasant one. A few days before college opened for the fall term the football squad started practice. For three weeks the squad held strenuous practice sessions. The work was, of necessity, of an almost purely fundamental character for. while the ma- terial had weight aplenty for any college team, it was nevertheless, extremely inex- perienced and lacked genuine talent. Thoroughness in fundamentals as the proper foundation of a winning system was Coach Neville’s aim. Great stress, also, was placed on defense, for the t' am was to be primarily a defensive combination. It was absurd to think that a football team, in its first year and competing with top-notch elevens, could win great victories: great, rather, would lx? the accomplishments of the team if it succeeded in hold-’ng its opponents to low scores. With this end in view, while not in any way neglecting the training of the backfield candidates. Coach Neville devoted most of his time to the linesmen, the bulwark of the defense. In his work of building un the team Coach Neville was aided by several former football stars of various colleges who. keenly interested in the progress of City one hundred hventy-seven ROSE N' WASSER BRING TACKI.ED PROVIDENCE GAME College football, volunteered their services. These men were Ed. Jolley, of Spring- field Y. M. C. A.; Ed. Harkins, of Williams; Tex Schwab, of Virginia Military Institute, and Bill Galvin, of Yale. Coach Neville was also assisted by Coach Mac- kenzie and his colleagues, Lieutenant Finnerty and Major Herrick of the previous car’s freshman eleven. On October 7 the team made its formal debut on tlie gridiron in the opening game of the season against St. Stephen’s College. The line-up of the team was as follows: Brauer, left end; Elk, left tackle; Kudin, left guard; Schticrman, center; Shapiro, right guard; Brodsky, right tackle; Ross, right end; Flaxer. quarterback; Farber. left halfback; Oshins, right halfback; T. Tannenbaum. fullback. The show- ing of the new varsity was extremely satisfactory and praiseworthy. Playing a strong defensive game it held the speedy St. Stephens eleven to a 7 to 0 score. The touch- down scored by the visitors was made in the very first quarter, before the Lavender eleven could find itself. At various times, indeed, the home players seemed about to score, but lack of experience and sufficient offensive drill proved a mighty handicap to overcome, and they were held to downs. Seldom was a game more cleanly played. The men, well-drilled in fundamentals, handled the ball in excellent fashion, keeping the game from being marred by fumbles. The team tackled Providence College the following week with hopes for victory high. And victory it might have been if it had not been for the fact that Lavender got off to a poor start. The strong Providence players, greatly aided by the varsity’s inexperience, scored thirteen points on two touchdowns in the first half. The second half, however, told a different story. By dint of superlative defensive play by the Lavender. Providence could do no better than score a field goal the entire half. The varsity, on the other hand, surprised the visitors with a sparkling overhead attack which accounted for a touchdown. The Lavender's superiority was clearly marked, but Providence’s lead was too great to be overcome. The final score was 16 to 7. The fine showing of the team in the second half of the Providence game seemed to presage victory over Drexel Institute on October 21. The keenest disappointment of the season, however, was experienced when the Philadelphia eleven handed the varsity its worst defeat thus far. The Lavender clearly outplayed the visitors from start to finish, but Drexel, favored by more than the usual run of breaks, succeeded, in spite of a flimsy offense, in annexing fifteen points while tl c varsity went score- less. These points came in the first half as a result of two touchdowns and a field one hundred twenty-eight GARVXY running for touchdown DREXEL GAME goal. Several changes were instituted in the college line-up. Garvey and Rosen- wasser started at the ends in place of Braucr and Ross, while Mottey replaced Flaxer at quarterback. Not much hope was held out for the Lavender in the next tussle with Hobart, scheduled to take place at Geneva on the 28th. The up-Statc eleven, a powerful combination, had already given indication of its ability by defeating N. Y. U. 20 to 0 on the latter's field. In spite of the tremendous handicap of playing away from home, the varsity eleven played a remarkable game, albeit a losing one. The score, 24 to 0, does not indicate the true nature of the contest. In the first half the Lavender eleven actually outgained the powerful Geneva team yard for yard, scoring eleven first downs to three for its opponents. Hobart's greater versatility, how- ever. carried off the victory. Harry Tannenbaum, making his debut as a regular varsity back in place of his namesake, Turk Tannenbaum, featured the game with his ripping line plunges. On November 4 the New York Aggies eleven became the varsity’s first and only victim of the season. Displaying noticeable improvement the College players outfought and outplayed the Long Island visitors and won 14 to 7. Kudin scored the first touchdown in the second quarter, while Harry Tannenbaum scored in the third quarter. The victory served as a bracer for the N. Y. U. game. On November 11. Armistice Day. the varsity eleven gained its most notable achievement of the season by holding N. Y. U. to a 7-0 score. In doing so the team upset the current predictions that the Violet would win by at least three touchdowns. After the first few minutes of the first half when the Bronx team, due to unsteadiness on the part of the Lavender, scored its only touchdown, the game resolved itself into a stubborn struggle waged on an equal basis. The feature of the game was the brilliant defense of the Lavender line. The season was brought to a close the following week when Catholic University came down for a 21 to 0 victory. The-college defense was not at its best. It evi- dently felt the strain of the N. Y. U. game. The Washington team, with a varied repertoire of forward passes and trick plays, had an easy time under the circum- stances. Statistics show that of the 97 points scored by opponents against the ’Varsity, 80 were made in the first half.

CAME to prove tliat during the first half the varsity, because of greenness, experienced dif- ficulty in solving opposing offenses, a difficulty which disappeared in the second half. The team went through the season without the services of a regular captain. Oshins and Schticrman acted as temporary captains in the various contests. At the end of the season. Jack Schticrman, who almost won the unique record of being the only regular to play every minute of every game before he was taken out in the closing minutes of the Catholic U. game because of injuries, was elected captain for the next season. He has the unique honor of being the first varsity football captain in sixteen years. The men who composed the 1922 football squad were the following: Schticrman, Oshins, Miller, S. Brodsky.

The team went through the season with only one defeat, a one-point victory earned by Syracuse, which was later avenged. The winning of the metropolitan title in the third game of the season and the ranking as Eastern championship contenders for the second successive year were the evidences of this season’s court achievements. The Lavender leads the claimants for the Eastern college basketball crown (with the honors accruing to royalty), having suffered only one defeat, while Yale, kingpins of the Intercollegiate League, took three beatings, and received two of its setbacks at the hands of a varsity victim—Columbia. The opening of the season found the 1922 Eastern champs with sadly de- pleted ranks as a result of the graduation of Captain Tubby” Raskin and Cliff Anderson, and the departure of Lou Fahrer and Jack Rosonowitz to dental school in search of higher knowledge. With a squad averaging only 5 feet 7 inches in height and weighing 147 pounds per man, Nat Holman faced the task of dupli- cating the previous year’s triumphs. The initial encounter with St. Francis found the congenial court mentor with the problem of turning out a victorious quintet with Klauber and Edel- stein, the two smallest members of the 1922 five, and a host of capable, under- sized substitutes. After a long period of shifting lineups Nat hit on his reg- ular combination with Jackie Nadcl and Frankie Salz, the two smallest players in intercollegiate basketball, at the forward posts; Jim Curran, a new man at center, and Doc” Edelstcin and Captain Red” Klauber, erstwhile for- wards, playing in the backfield. This combination remained intact until the P. M. S. and T. in his infinite wisdom that Salz, although a star at the cage game, would not do his colonel’s army with the result that Leo Palitz, first sub, became a regular forward in the place of the Blond Tiger,” who was thenceforth to con- fine his activities to “Squads right!” and machine gun tactics. St. Francis College, which later won the Eastern Catholic Intercollegiate championship, was the Lavender’s victim on opening night. The Franciscan vet- erans fell an easy prey to Nat’s midget marvels by a 33-21 score. The lightning fast playing and accurate passing of the varsity proved the undoing of the speedy Brooklyn five. The following week found the varsity with an unknown quantity as an opponent in Dickinson, conquerors of the U. of P. The Lancastrians dis- played a superior attack and at times threatened the Lavender with defeat. Led by Wallace, their 6-foot-4-inch center, who toyed with the ball.” the visitors rolled up 27 points to 39 for the home team, whose 12-point margin of victory remained unapproached. Columbia, whose quintet had already vanquished N. Y. U., Rutgers, St. John’s CAPT. KI.AUBKR one hundred Ihirly-four V y % 1 1923 Mimmmt and Brooklyn Poly, sought to impede the Lavender’s titular progress on the follow- ing Saturday evening. Joe Dccring’s combination had been widely heralded as prospective Intercollegiate League winners and looked to the contest with the City College midgets as another step in its championship procession. But the pre- dictions of the dopcstcrs and the fond hopes and lofty aspirations of the Blue and White were in vain against the superior play of the college five which led at the half time by 17-8. The Lion roared more in the second half, hut the effec- tive work of Edclstein at the foul line tamed the beast. The varsity’s 32-26 triumph practically assured the Lavender of its second “met” title in as many years. Brown was once again the Junior Week victim, when on December 23 the snappy Bruin team, although ahead at half time to the tunc of 13-9. suffered its third consecutive defeat at the hands of the City College whirlwinds when it lost by a 38-23 count. The varsity made it a Happy New Year on the following Saturday evening in allowing Holy Cross, lone winner over “Tubby” Raskin’s 1922 marvels, to emerge on the short end of a 43-24 score. The Worcester lads played a rough game throughout. Only the astounding failure o'f any of Nat Holman’s foul-shooters to work effectively from the fifteen-foot mark allowed the visitors’ infractions to go unpunished. Fordham, another metropolitan rival, proved a surprise in the first game of the New Year. The Maroon five, which had been downed by Holy Cross in its opening tussle, was expected to offer no serious opposition. The good work of Captain MacMahon and his cohorts availed them not a bit in the face of a 42-29 drubbing. The next week-end proved a hard one for the varsity. On Friday evening, fresh from a trip from St. Nicholas Heights, the Lavender engaged Rochester University at the upstate city court. The advanced play of the visitors proved too much for the Kodak City” five and its antediluvian court efforts. Basket- hanging” tactics availed the upstaters in the first period, but more effective guard- ing won out and City College emerged on top by a 36-25 margin. The next evening found the Lavender’s diminutive flashes engaged to meet Syracuse at the Archbold gymnasium. The Orange five, which had a one-point victory on its home court over the previous year’s City College quintet, succeeded once more in exerting sufficient in- fluence to win in the last minute of play by 31-30. In winning the Salt City team continued its feat of defeating the Lavender on its up-State campaign for the third successive season. With the gloom from the Syracuse defeat still weighing them down, the Lavender pill tossers returned home to meet the crack Cornell five, winner over Columbia and Syracuse by large scores, in the first court engagement between the City College and Red and White quintets since 1919. The game was fiercely contested, the varsity’s margin of superiority always standing out. A last-minute foul shot and an opportune goal clinched the victory for the college team at 21-18. Frank Salz made his last appearance in the varsity lineup against Ortner’s “Big Red” five. Edclstein, captain-elect of the 1924 varsity, achieved an unusual one hundred thirty-five distinction in holding Jimmy Luther, Cornell’s ace and leading scorer in the league, scoreless from scrimmage. During the following two weeks Frank Salz engaged the colonel in a hectic battle, but lost out on the short end of an R. O. T. C. count. The ineligibility of the flashy blond star was the occasion for the promotion of Leo Palitz to a regular berth. The first game after the mid-year examinations found Palitz ineligible because of failure to take the required green card examination. Hahn broke in as a regular against F. M., Klaubcr going to right forward. The Pennsylvania team was completely outclassed, allowing the varsity to score at will. Klaubcr, Edel and Jackie scored twenty baskets between them. Nadel in getting his sextet of cagcrs won the “B. J. K.” Junior Week award for scoring six baskets and the promise of a silk topper. The entire squad went on a scoring spree, getting 51 points to F. M.’s 21 tallies. On the evening of February 17 the varsity avenged the defeat by Syracuse upstate by downing the Orangemen in a hard-fought engagement by a 20-14 count. The Salt City quintet played its usual rough game. The failure of the new lineup to work harmoniously accounted for the low score of the college five. Northeastern rang down the curtain on the home season in a miserable ex- hibition. The varsity, in the absence of Nat Holman, suffered an off night. The Boston five was lucky to get off with a 42-24 pasting. The traditional encounter with N. Y. U. on the evening of March 3 saw the Lavender reaffirm its claim to the metropolitan championship by taking Ed Thorp's tossers into camp by a 30-27 margin. The Violet, playing an unorthodox game, resorted to close guarding and surprised even the fondest Hall of Fame enthusiast in coming out on top in the first half by 18 to 12. The Lavender found itself in the closing period and won out by a three-point margin. The victory was a fitting close to a glorious season. “Doc” Edclstcin led the scorers for the season with a record total of 200 points. The lanky guard was especially effective from the foul line with 134 free tosses to his credit. Captain Red” Klaubcr led the scrimmage scorers with 40 baskets. Jackie Xadel was close behind the bricktoppcd leader with 3S goals from field. The team ran up a total of 466 points to its opponents' 321. On April 24 the varsity made its last public appearance against the Alumni for the benefit of the Long Island College Endowment Fund.

As it was, the 1923 diamond aggregation won half of its scheduled encounters—a rather uncommon performance in recent years. Never, except per- haps in the Colgate game, did the team approach the standard of the team which conquered Fordham and William and Mary. Yet the season was not an unsuccess- ful one, thanks to the number of second raters on the card. Weakness with the stick spelled the undoing of Captain AxtclPs players. The pitching was quite up to standard with Captain Teddy once more bearing the brunt of the mound duty with “Curly Wigdcrson as an assistant on the slab. The season opened with a defeat at the hands of Columbia. Lou Gehrig, now of the Yankees, was on the hill for Blue and White, who made the Lavender swallow its first defeat to the unpleasant taste of a 15-5 score. Insufficient batting practice and poor catching helped in the undoing of the varsity. The Army at West Point next triumphed over Nat Holman’s charges by an 11-3 count. The traveling season was successfully brought to a close when the rearranged line-up, with Archie Hahn shifted from his accustomed post at third to serve behind the plate, won a loosely played game from Stevens Tech by an 11-10 margin. A 3-1 victory over Brooklyn Poly helped inaugurate the stadium season. The Brooklyn Engineers proved easy prey before Axtell’s offerings and the varsity was able to avenge a previous year’s defeat. Manhattan Collcgc was the next Lavender victim succumbing before the heavy City College batting and the effective pitching of “Curly” Wigdcrson, who turned in his first win on that occasion. The game marked the return to the nine of Frankie Salz, the sturdy little blond shortstop, who had been out because of “marks.” Cathedral College dropped by the wayside at the short end of a 10-3 count for the fourth straight Lavender win. The scheduled encounter with Trinity failed to materialize when the elements at Hart- ford gave way to one Jupc Pluvius, who held both teams in check. Two saintly institutions from the City of Churches were the next to fall before the temptations offered by the Sturdy Sons of City College.” On Wednes- day of that memorable week St. Francis College yielded after a stubborn ten-inning battle. The Franciscans led in the ninth by a 4-3 count when, with defeat staring him in the face, Nat Holman sent in Bastian to pinch hit. That the mentor’s trust was well placed was evidenced when Bastian tripled and scored when Jackie Nadcl brought him home for the tying run by a squeeze play. In the tenth, with the crowd on edge, Teddy Axtell duplicated his William and Mary feat by poling a homer for a 5-4 triumph. St. John’s bowed on Saturday for the sixth successive varsity victory by a 4-2 count, thanks to the fine support afforded Wigdcrson’s erratic pitching. New York University forced the Lavender to feel the sting of a shut-out defeat in the annual diamond engagement by a 9-0 count. The Violet nine was one of the best Eastern aggregations this year, a fact which seemed to be in part responsible for the almost complete collapse of the infield against the Hall of Fame pill tossers. The slugging “Generals” from Washington and Lee cast further gloom in the Lavender Camp by an 8-2 victory. Axtell turned in one of the best games he ever twirled in shutting out Man- hattan by a 5-0 route and allowing only three scattered binglcs in a return engage- onc hundred thirty-nine mcnt with the Green and White. St. Stephen's was completely outclassed by an 11-1 score in an Excursion Day engagement. Of the closing games of the season little can be said. Fordham won easily from a demoralized City College aggregation by a 10-1 margin; Drcxcl, a team which should have l ccn easy picking, emerged on top of a 7-5 score; R. P. I., a team which had been consistently swamped, won an extra-inning engagement at Troy by a 4-3 margin. The Colgate game alone showed the team making a satis- factory showing against high-class opposition. Colgate, fresh from a victory over Princeton, at that time as yet undefeated, came to the stadium a heavy favorite. A shut-out victory for the Maroon would have been no surprise. But consistent playing and a ninth-inning rally which was only stemmed by inserting Kinney, conqueror of the Tigers, to pitch the last third of the inning, brought the varsity to within a run of the Colgate total and gave the up-Staters the scare of their happy and successful diamond life. Colgate won by a 6-5 score, hut the laurels—the moral victory—was the Lavender's in the final home tussle. The defeat by Rensselaer closed the season with eight victories and a like number of defeats. The team as it lined up during the major part of the season was: Nadcl, left field; Weisherg, second base; Hahn, catcher; Axtcll, pitcher; Trulio, center field; Bongiorno, third base; Salz, shortstop; Bastian, first base; and March, right field. Wigderson was the only other pitcher. When not in the box Axtcll played first l asc. Healv was in the right during part of the season while March was out. Joe Moses played short and Keidans first with Ginsberg catching in the early part of the season. The other members of the squad were: Eisenstein, outfield, and Licbcrman and Friedman, utility. Bill Prager managed the team. Bill Trulio, captain-elect for next season, was the leading batter, hitting for .367. Hahn led the base stealers with fourteen pilfered sacks. Captain Axtcll and Archie Hahn arc the only regulars who will be lost by graduation, although the three-year rule deprives the team of the services of Jackie Nadel and Frankie Salz. The freshman nine may make up the losses, so that at this writing a successful season may he predicted. The record of the team follows: C. C. N. Y.

In the three dual meets City College ran second, but ended up the season in a blaze of glory when the team took third in the Penn Relays. Stevens was the first to defeat the college speedsters, though by a very close margin. In the meet with Brooklyn Poly Tech the Lavender came within an ace of winning, 55-53. The victory was not assured until the third throw of the javelin, and then was decided by a mere three inches. Against the crack Fordham team the college had very little chance; it was in the field events that City College surpassed in this and the other meets. A picked team consisting of Parisi, Murphy, Dickson and Licbcrman was sent down to the Penn Relays; pitted against seven other college teams, the Lavender had to be content with third place. The bright light of the team was its captain, Harry Rosenwasscr. In every meet he accounted for at least ten points. During the entire season he did not fail to win the broad jump; and in the javelin and discuss throws he placed either first or second. Upon Rosenwasscr’s graduation. Parisi was elected to lead the team for the next year. As the college’s sprinter lie was certain to put up a fight for every inch of the way. George Shapiro and Brodsky covered the shot-putting assignments. The former has been grad- uated after having placed his two hundred-odd pounds at the service of the college for four years. Brodsky broke the college shot-put record with one of his heaves. This team, as well as the cross-country team, was managed by Alex J. H. Whynman. If the team is reinforced by several good sprinters, a thing which seems very probable, the chances for track next year are certainly very promising.

In opening the season with the U. of P. aggregation the ’Varsity mermen succeeded in win- ning second place in the breast and backstroke events. In the Tiger engagement Wallace, the Macmcn’s newly discovered breaststroke ace, not only won his event but established a new college record. In the Yale meet, Dundcs took first in the hundred and created a new C. C. N. Y. mark at 1:04 4 5 minutes. The Lavender then traveled to .Yew Haven only to suffer defeat at the hands of the Elis. The first meet of the Spring Semester—that against Columbia—was the bright spot of the sea- son’s schedule. Coming from behind, the ’Varsity swimmers captured the breaststroke, tied for first in the century and took enough other places to he on the short end of a 23-31 score before the relay was contested. The ’Varsity quartet decided to do a little lion taming of its own and romped off with the 800-yard event, tying the meet at 31 all. In the meeting with the Blue and White, Wallace established a new 220-yard breaststroke record for the 100-foot pool. A victory against Columbia or even a tic would have kept us out of the cellar apartment. But the fates would have it otherwise, and on the evening of March 21 the college’s hopes for victory against the Morningsidc Heights swimmers were dashed and the Lavender once again took up its last-place apartment. one hundred forty-two the 1 1923 toorpcosm ASST.

Dondcro and Tannenbaum, however, Coach McCormick, from the material afforded him, developed a combination which did not fare so poorly as might have been expected. The team opened its season very auspiciously on December 15 by defeating the University of Pennsylvania quite easily by a score of 31 to 21. When, following this, the champion Princeton sextet had a hard time in squeezing out a 44-13 victory, indications seemed plentiful that the strength of the team had not really been impaired by its losses, and that it might again be in the runner-up position. Such expectations were rudely shattered, however, on January 19 when Vale, exhibiting vast improvement over her 1921-22 form, took the Lavender by surprise and scored a 32-19 victory. Henceforth, the decline of the team was rapid. In the return engagement with Yale the Lav- ender six exhibited a decided loss of morale and was defeated 55 to 9. Columbia, taking the tide of affairs at the Hood, was victorious in the next meet 30 to 14. Princeton also took advantage of the Lavender’s shattered condition and swam to victory by the one-sided count of 63 to 11. The team pulled itself together for the second encounter with Penn on March 2 in a desperate endeavor to keep out of the cellar position.

The fact that no victory whs recorded by the team does not detract from the praise due it. The 'Varsity grapplcrs showed remarkable spirit in sticking through the season in the face of the most overwhelming obstacles. Through the instrumentality of Irving Chabon, manager of the 1921-22 team, two voluntary coaches were found who were interested enough in the activities of the wrestlers to offer their services for part of the season: a Mr. Knight, former heavyweight champion of Canada, and Mr. Horowitz, a former captain of Stevens. All difficulties notwithstanding, the season finally got under way on December 13 with a practice match against the Washington Heights Y. M. H. A., which the college wrestlers succeeded in winning by a 24 to 0 score. On December 16. however, the regular season opened with a defeat by Columbia. 26 to 0. The next meet against Stevens resulted in a tie, 9 to 9. In the remaining matches, Brooklyn Poly heat down all opposition and was victorious. 23 to 3; while in the return match with Stevens, the Hoboken Engineers possessed a sufficient margin of advantage over the weakened Lavender matmen to win by a 13-9 score. It was in the various individual championship tournaments held at the end of the season that City College supporters could point with pride to the achievements of the Lavender wrestlers. The most remarkable accomplishments were realized by Captain Bialostosky. who, in winning the Metropolitan and State championships in the 118-pound class, rose to fame as one of the greatest wrestlers in the country and as a very likely Olympic prospect. one hundred forty-five 1922 Cross-Country HTHE record of the ’Varsity Cross-Country team was no improvement over that of last year’s team. The season was a lifeless one and lagged in interest. Much was expected at the begin- ning of the Reason from Captain Patent’s men, who made up a practically veteran aggregation, but lack of sufficient practice and coaching, maladies which have become chronic with City College hill-and-daling teams, crippled any possibilities the harriers might have had. If there is any way in which the 1922 team can serve as a model for future teams, it is in the matter of pointing out what to avoid—or what to seek—for it has been proved that there is no dearth of material at the college, and all that is needed is strong organization to get the full benefit out of the material that is present. The team opened the season by absorbing its annual beating at the hands of Lafayette, 19 to 36. Brooklyn Poly., however, was downed, 27 to 28, thus avenging the previous year’s defeat in- flicted by the Engineers. N. Y. U., which was just barely nosed out last year, proved a little too strong for the Lavender, and ran off with a 21-34 victory. On November 18 the team entered a six-team Intercollegiate Metropolitan Run held under the auspices of Columbia. The college harriers made a creditable showing, finishing fourth in the standing, close behind N. Y. U. and well in advance of Fordham and Brooklyn Poly. On Novem- ber 27 the team took part in the intercollcgiatcs and finished in twelfth place. The team was composed of Captain Patent, Captain-elect Rcisman, Dain, Orlando, Hamburger, Bernhardt, Parisi. Seon and Maday. All of these men, with the exception of Hamburger and Parisi, will be back at college next Fall, and, accordingly, with the addition of several Freshmen stars, prospects for the really best team in the history of the college arc very bright—provided, of course, that the handicaps of training and coaching are successfully obviated. The team was man- aged by Alex. I. Whvnman. The record follows: C. C. N. Y.

The plebe eleven won three of its games and lost two. Scholastic difficulties worked havoc with the first-year men, and at mid-season two regulars and a first-string sub were forced to withdraw from the team. “Doe Parker, making his debut as a Lavender coach, succeeded in turning out a combination which for speedy play and offensive skill was the equal of any scholastic eleven. With a backficld that would do a 'varsity team credit, a pair of capable ends, the Cubs needed only a heavier line to be a perfect team. The opening game with Evandcr Childs High School resulted in a victory for the college first-year men. The Bronx team got a touchdown early in the game and led by 6-0 up to the third quarter, when a forward pass for a touchdown and a placement kick for goal gave the yearlings the contest by a 7-6 count. The next engagement with Mamaroncck, Westchester champions and conquerors of the 1921 Freshman team, was soft picking for “Doe Parker’s gridiron stars, who romped off with a 39-6 triumph. After these two successive victories the Frosh hit a snag in Fordham Prep., a victim of the previous plebe eleven. The lighter weight of the college players told in the contest with the Maroon, and the Bronx team, aided considerably by the poor work of the officials, emerged on top with a 14-6 margin. At this time Captain Moc Cohen was forced to leave college for failure to attend classes, and Epstein, a regular lineman, quit for similar reasons. Demoralized by the loss of its captain and backficld star, the Frosh aggregation faced the strong N. Y. U. yearling team at Ohio Field on Election Day. The yearlings worked hard but could not succeed at the polls. When final returns were received the Violet was declared elected by a vote of 7-3. The season came to a close against the Fordham Freshmen. By the use of an effective open-field attack the yearling team, though considerably outweighed, succeeded in downing the Maroon Frosh by a 7-0 score. Roy Plaut. the Cubs' sensational quarterback, and Captain Moc Cohen were easily the stars of the backficld. Bob Phildius and Rosenberg on the ends, and Weiswasser and Hockhauscr on the line were the stars of the forward delegation. Smith was effective with his toe when called upon. Sawickey, Kalish, Levistag, Hertzenberg, Maltcr, Vogel, Charley Cohen, Gussow, Finkelstcin, Schiller and Klein were the other members of the team. Much is expected of the yearling players on the 'Varsity next Fall. Captain Cohen, Roy Plaut, Phildius and Hockhauscr look like sure 'Varsity men. Most of the other Freshman “grid- ders” are sure to be in the running for senior team berths in the 1923 competition. one hundred forty-seven M —T 1 1 flion IICffSM SIB® i1 -— St 111 i'- —.'. 11 v -=d Freshman Baseball FRESHMAN BASEBALL TEAM April 3 Morris High Schooi.....................

After decisively defeating Morris, Mount Vernon, Textile, Richmond Hill, Townsend Harris, Boys’ High and Stuyvesant the Lavender cubs hit a snag in the Maroon Prep nine and suffered the sting of defeat for the first time in the season. In their first three engagements Doc Parker’s yearlings lambasted the opposing moundsmen for a total of forty runs to three for their victims. Richmond Hill proved a harder foe, but the plebes got the liettcr of the pitching duel between Katz, their own hurlcr, and Nippcl, the Long Islander’s ace, and won by a 2-0 score.

On the following Saturday Boys' High was added to the list of freshman victories when a last minute rally bv the Brooklynites was cut off with the home team on top of an 8-7 score. Stuyvesant was another team to fall before the snappy bunt- ing and heady cub nine. The victory made it seven straight wins for the Lavender. Then came the ill-fated Fordham Prep game, and whether it was due to the superior pitching of the prep twirlcr or the lay of the Bronx team's field the college frosh saw their clean slate marred by defeat. The freshmen seemed to have returned to winning form in their game against Dc Witt Clinton, whom they had little difficulty beating by an 11-4 margin, and once more a Fordham team obstructed the yearling road to triumph. This time it was the strong Fordham Freshman aggregation which put the college repre- sentatives down for the count. The score was 13-6. The cubs returned to the home diamond for another victory at the hands of the Evander Childs nine to a 5-3 tunc. Commerce was the victim in the tenth frosh win by a 3-2 count at the stadium. As part of the Charter Day celebration the first year men trimmed Concordia Prep, Doc” Parker’s former proteges, at the Bronxvillc field by a 16-8 score. The defeat by the championship George Washington nine in an uphill battle closed the cubs’ very successful season. Doc” Parker showed his versatility as coach of the plebc diamond aggregation. Mac Hodesblatt was captain of the team. On the team were Katz. Moder and Siegel, pitchers; Hodesblatt, catcher; Fried fold and Raskin, first base; Slatkin, second base; Plaut, shortstop; Fragner. third base; Kaufman, left-field; Halpcrn and Goldberg, center field; Raskin and Moder, right-field, and Bernstein, Levy and Robbins, utility men. one hundred forty-nine Other Freshman Sports HTHE career of the 1926-1927 freshman basketball team was a checkered one. The Yearling baskctccrs oscillated from the one extreme of playing good enough to hand the Commerce High players, champions of Manhattan, their only defeat of the season, to the other extreme of losing to such mediocre teams as George Washington High School and Fordham Prep. The explanation for this curious phenomenon seems to lie in the fact that several times in the course of the season the line-up of the team had to be changed. When the second half of the season came around, in fact, Coach Parker, of football fame, and the new yearling basketball mentor, found himself deprived of the services of four of his regulars, who had either been graduated from the freshman ranks or had left college. Around Goldberg, the only available regular, therefore. Parker was forced to build an entirely new combination, which, though it improved rapidly with each game, could not overcome the handicap of playing against veteran teams. The record of the freshman five stands at six victories, two of them by default, and seven defeats. NEW page was written in the history of wrestling at the College, when a freshman team was organized for the first time last season. The yearling grapplcrs were eminently successful, in spite of the fact that they labored under almost the same handicaps which hampered the varsity team. Without the services of a coach, the freshmen garnered what instruction they could from the varsity men, and were kept together as a team through the tireless efforts of Manager Chaudruc and through their own love of the sport. The purpose of the team, that of affording the varsity good material, was certainly realized, for many men of ability were uncovered who gave ample promise of becoming future stars. Out of four matches the yearlings won two. 'T'HE freshman cross-country team, following the example of its 1921 predecessor, plodded through an unfortunate season. Lack of practice, coaching and material were potent factors in the failure of the team to capture any of the four meets engaged in. The schedule, which originally consisted of six meets, was reduced to four engagements when cancellations by New Rochelle High School and Newtown High School occurred too late for the scheduling of other meets in their stead. The teams met were Yonkers High School, Brooklyn Poly Freshmen, Horace Mann School, and New York University Freshmen. The showing of Lober, captain of the yearlings, appears as the only bright spot in the drab record of the freshman hill-and-dalers. Lober gave promise of becoming valuable varsity material. He finished in first place in the meets with the Brooklyn Poly Freshmen and Horace Mann School. Competing for individual honors in the Intercollegiate Freshman Cross-Country Run for 1922, he finished before many of the best runners in the country and first for the metropolitan district. one hundred fifty The Campus lUercunj The microcosm The Lavender Book % Citg College Quarterly Jusi icjMuons By RAYMOND M.

'23 Henry Rogatz, '23 T7F.W changes of a radical nature marked the Campus year, attention being concentrated on realization of the exacting standards formulated in times past. Recognition of Campus as the leading extra curricular activity at the College was general, as was strikingly evidenced by the more than threescore candidates who, each term, sought places on the paper. Albert Aronson and David Bcrcs, in turn, filled the Editorship. Particularly strenuous efforts were made by both men to emphasize the important role of Campus as the ofiicial organ of student opinion, with its consequent right to a considerate hearing in the councils of both faculty and students. Thus no subject, whether connected with student organizations or college curriculum, was deemed too sanctified for searching editorial comment. News was efficiently gathered and presented, and, at all times, those in charge endeavored to restrict comment or opinion to the editorial page. The sports depart- ment, also, ably maintained its traditions, seeking, in particular, to find a golden mean between a stilted style and the questionable colloquialisms of the usual sports writer. As much as was consistent with its journalistic character, the paper published literary reviews, human interest stories, and fraternity gossip. The news columns were, from time to time, still further supplemented by other special features, most noteworthy of which were the frequent professorial contributions. one hundred fifty-four MERCURY STAFF EXECUTIVE HOARD H.

Conversion into a humorous magazine—by an entirely new staff, to boot—leaves nothing save its name unchanged. No sooner had H. L. Sakolsky been elected Editor by the reorganized Mercury staff than his willing ears detected popular clamor for a radically altered publica- tion. Very promptly, therefore, the wing-footed god was decked out in a permanent new garb of motley, and the first issue of what was almost a new magazine ap- peared. The long-awaited College comic had at length arrived. As yet, the quality of the work produced has hardly surpassed that of the professional humorists. An inevitably amateurish tinge, liberal resort to the trial and error method of determining what readers enjoy and not a little artistic crudity have marred the early issues of this year’s Mere.” Even the most grudg- ing critic, though, must admit an immense improvement in recent months, so that already the publication falls but little below the standards of the best college comics. Chiefly responsible for the very rapid improvement is a small, highly capable staff of writers. They have sought, not so much to say sprightly things and to make clever puns,- as to deftly hold the mirror up to a most comical universe, to cartoon, if you will, existence. And as their experience grows, deeper and deeper bites the acid with which they etch their vignettes. Quite the equals of the literary men are the indefatigable artists whose droll sketches adorn each Mercury page. Not a little work of real merit has already been produced, and the art board, too, is benefiting by increasing practice. All in all, it’s not so bad, this rejuvenated Merc.” One hundred fifty-six MICROCOSM STAFF The 1923 Microcosm Bernard Benjamin, ’23 Edilor-in-Chief Ai.kx J. H.

The Council began this year, for the first time, to take its own work seriously, and late in the spring semester actually succeeded in winning a measure of respect from the student hotly. To no small degree responsible for this change in the character of the Council was the constitutional change by which membership in that body was reduced one-half by the elimination of class presidents and several class representatives. In the fall term, in addition to serving a useful end as a source of weekly amusement to members of the student body, the Student Council, under President Warsoff, set itself to remedy existing conditions all over the college. The Co-op Store was the scene of one field of the Council's activities, while the Student lunchroom and its improvements were also considered by the Student repre- sentatives. Much enthusiasm was aroused by the Council's drive to secure a revision of the college charter in favor of compulsory membership in the Students' Union. The “C. U.” drive met with the approval of the Student body and the project was approved by a vote of 1,183 to 560 and recommended to the trustees for action. one hundred sixty-two COTTI N lll.BSON COI.DMAX PENN SII API KO LEVINSON BAUM SAKol.SK V CORBIE KI.AU HER WIIYN M AN BENJAMIN SPRING STUDENT COUNCIL During the same term the position of the Student Council and its relation to other parts of the Union was clearly defined. After a long struggle with repre- sentatives of Campus, Mercury and the Athletic Association the Council suc- ceeded in having passed by the Faculty Student Affairs Committee a ruling re- quiring these organizations to submit financial statements. These statements were to be used for the allotment of funds by the “U” and not as a means of controlling the policies of these organizations. The conflict between the Council and Campus, based mainly on the refusal of the editor of Campus to publish what lie deemed a personal rather than an official communication from the President of the Student Council, was concluded finally when Albert II. Aronson, editor of the semi-weekly, was suspended from the Council. Other attempts on the part of the Council to control the policy of the college newspaper proved fruitless and only served to weaken the Council’s own, none too secure, position. In the spring term, under President Klauber, the Council set itself to work to improve lunchroom conditions. To this end an investigating committee was appointed to examine conditions at other institutions and make recommendations on the basis of such a study. The investigation had the very desirable result of getting the present owner to invest a considerable sum of money in improving and renovating the concourse eating places. Notable among the body’s accomplishments during the spring months was a decision which will go down to posterity. The Council solemnly averred at its first meeting by a vote of 8 to 1 that six is a majority of nine, and that five can under no circumstances be considered such a majority. The usual Charter Day festivities were held under the Council’s auspices. one hundred sixty-three COMMERCE COUNCIL Student Council COM MERCE BUILDING Louis Grkenbaum Nathan C. Enc.ki.

In the several matches during the season, the results were all very favorable to City College. Rice Progressive, Staten Island and Newark Chess Clubs were unable to gain victories, while the Brooklyn Chess Club could only achieve a tic. In the Metropolitan League Tournament, pitted against men many years their superiors in practice and age. the City College made a very favorable impression. The few matches that the team did win only served to illustrate the fine game of chess it was capable of. It was a great surprise—but a pleasant one, withal— when Max Levine tied the United States champion, Frank J. Marshall, in one of the matches. When the Intercollegiate Chess League Tournament opened, City College was not given much consideration by the chess experts. The team, composed of Howard Grossman. '23, Max Levine, ’25. A. Edward Santasierc, ’25. and Krling Tholfson. ’25, Captain, were rather confident of making a good showing. All the expectations of the team’s supporters were surpassed when the team came out on top. The former champions, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, were decisively beaten by a score of 3} i to : in the other matches, Columbia. Cornell, New York University and Pennsylvania were forced to admit that they were “checkmated.” And so for the second time in its history, City College won the intercollegiate title. If in chess there is a star—or is it a king?—he is surely Captain Erling Tholf- son. In the Metropolitan League, he was the high scorer, losing one lone match. He was even more fortunate than this in the Intercollegiate League Tournament: on that occasion, playing at the top of his form, he won every match he took part in, being the only player of all the teams not to lose a single one. On the team we had the champion of the Marshall Chess Club for the year 1922 in the person of A. Edward Santasicre. In the matches for the championship this year Tholfson came out the victor, and City College again possesses the champion of the Marshall Chess Club. Harry Slochower, ’23. a former President of the Club, had very little time to devote to chess in the past year, but strenuously applied himself to the game whenever he was called upon. For four years he played on the team and this year in the tournament of the Metropolitan League he did not lose a match. Another man to graduate is Howard Grossman. During his four years at college he was a member of the chess team. Last year, playing at second board, he was the highest scorer of the entire league, with three victories and one tie. He, too, has devoted much time to chess, always with the desire to serve City College. In spite of the losses by graduation. City College will place on the board a formidable array of chess men next season, and if it is possible will enjoy an even more successful year. one hundred sixty-five The Varsity Show Presented at The Hcckshcr Foundation Theatre, April IS, 1923 FREE SPEECH By William L.

LEVY 1IALPKRN FRESHMEN DEBATERS Freshman Debating FOR the first time in the history of the college a Freshman Debating team, which engaged in intercollegiate debate, was organized. On April 27, 1923, the Frosh took part in a triangular debate with the Freshman teams of Washington Square College and New York University. On that evening three debates on the ques- tion, “Resolved, That the present three per cent immigration law be extended for a period of three years,” were held. The Lavender Frosh defeated the W. S. C. team in their home debate and the other C. C N. Y. team lost to N. Y. U. in its contest at University Heights. The College Freshman team that argued the negative side of the question at home consisted of M. Halpcrn, Captain, S. Licbovitz, A. Bclskin and S. Jacobi. The team that journeyed to the Heights was composed of Charles Levy, Captain, N. Bernstein, Harry Levy and S. Hasson. The teams were managed by the Debating Council, consisting of Milton I. Levine, '23, Chair- man, Irving J. Levy, ’24, and David Katz, ’25. Professor Palmer, of the Public Speaking Depart- ment, coached the teams. The practice of organizing Freshman teams for intercollegiate debating will probably be con- tinued in the future as its first year has been satisfactory. one hundred sixty-eight R. O. T. C. T'HE City College Unit of the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps, collateral with the growth of the College, has had this year the record enrollment of over 1,800 cadets and 22 cadet officers. Ten cadet officers of the C. C. N. Y. Unit received commissions in the Officers’ Reserve Corps. The work of instruction has been taken over in large measure by the cadet officers, under the leadership of Cadet Major William E. Ringlc, and the work done by these students has been efficient and commendable. With this large growth of the R. O. T. C. its activities have extended to many other fields. The Officers’ Club, organized last year, has been continued with much success during the current year as a social club for the cadet officers. The R. O. T. C. Band has been developed into a well-organized group of musicians, who entertained at several football games and pep rallies’’ in Chapel. The band journeyed to University Heights with the football team and helped create that fine spirit that characterized the N. Y. U. game. The Unit also started a Rifle Team, which acquitted itself ably in the Intercollegiate Rifle Tournament, and in its meets with several other R. O. T. C. Units. In the Plattsburg R. O. T. C. Camp, Irwin Murray, ’24, was the individual high scorer, with a score of 173 points out of a possible 200. A Fencing Club has been started this year, which will probably engage in Intercollegiate Meets next year. The club is being instructed in the gentlemanly art” by Lieutenant Jacobs. In the celebration of the seventy-sixth Charter Day, the R. O. T. C. took an active part, as they did in the celebration of the three-quarter century birthday of the College last year. A competitive drill was held between the picked companies and some deft maneuvers were executed by the well-trained cadets. The teaching staff of the City College R. O. T. C. Unit consists of: Colonel Samuel B. Arnold, Professor of Military Science and Tactics; Professor H. M. Holton, Accountable Officer; Captain Richard M. Winfield, Lieutenant Newton N.

More and more of the many hundred biology students at the College have availed themselves of the opportunity for informal and unhampered discussion of matters biological. Men of such national prominence as Dean Darrach of the College of Phy- sicians and Surgeons, Dr. Goldenwciscr of the New School for Cancer Research, Dr. Marine of Montefiorc Hospital, and Dr. Woglom, Professor of Cancer Research at Columbia, have addressed crowded club meetings. Each week, also, were heard members’ reviews of biological periodicals, of scientific meetings, and of recent advances in biology. During the Spring Term the Club conducted an especially successful drive to increase its Scholarship Fund, on the interest of which the department is, each year, enabled to send two students to the research station at Cold Spring Harbor for post-graduate work. Several hikes and field trips were made to nearby places of interest. Students and biology faculty met at the annual dinner which was held on May 5 at the City College Club. one hundred seventy-five Radio Club Richard W.

Within the tower is installed a radio telephone and radio telegraph of the latest design and of the highest power, capable of sending messages hundreds—and under favorable circumstances, thousands—of miles. The receiving ap- paratus is even more complete, including large amplifiers for special occasions. The club operates under a government license; its call is 2XNA. Constant planning and construction of new-apparatus has featured the work of the year. So deeply engrossed are many of the members that often the set is not stilled until an hour or two after midnight. Messages arc exchanged with all the colleges of the East, and particularly frequently with Princeton. President Carlisle is organizing an Intercollegiate Radio League which will link together all radio-equipped colleges. A dozen institutions, including Princeton, M.I.T.; Boston College and Fordham, have already responded to the invitations, and by Fall the League will have been extended over the South and the West. Next semester the Club will take over a college assembly and entertain with a radio concert. World Scries results will, of course, again be received here. No less than twelve code practice classes met regularly during the year, as a consequence of which much improvement was manifested by the members in the April code examinations. Weekly Thursday meetings have been addressed on timely subjects by prominent engineers and by students. The Club confesses itself deeply indebted to its faculty adviser, Professor Goldsmith, for his invaluable assistance in securing equipment and in helping solve technical problems. on • hundred seventy-seven The Baskerville Chemical Society OFFICERS 1922-23 FALL TERM SPRING TERM J.

It was only after strenuous efforts on the part of Professor Bruckner and the students that the school was finally recognized by the committee on student affairs. The establishment of a student branch signifies that City College is now recognized by the A. S. M. E. and by engineering circles in general as a full- fledged school of mechanical engineering.

New London. Conn., Aug. 24. 1922, under the auspices of the National Shorthand Reporters’ Association, Mr. Nathen Behrin, an ISAAC PITMAN writer, and without any preparation, won the WORLD’S SHORTHAND TROPHY CHAMPIONSHIP at 280 words per minute, breaking ALL PRE- VIOUS RECORDS WITH AN AVERAGE ACCURACY PERCENTAGE OF 99.48. Mr. Behrin was also first in the 240-word contest. Mr. Samuel Powsncr, an ISAAC PITMAN writer, was first in the 220 test, and Mr. John Daly, an ISAAC PITMAN writer, was first in the 200 test.

The Twentieth Century has rained wonders on us: The Telegraph, Telephone, Phonograph, Aeroplane, Wireless, Pian- ola, Movies, The Great War: It is hard for any ONE wonder to stand out prominently against a background of so many other extraordinary devel- opments. Ycl CHIROPRACTIC lias out-surprised surprise.— It has jerked a miracle-satiated world to its feet.— And it has done so by making the so-called impossible possible. CHIROPRACTIC has jumped into the forefront of Healing Sciences. Tens of thousands of sick people—after they have tried pills and powders, and drugs and medicines, and sanitariums, and operations, and trips to Europe, and changes of climate--turn at last to CHIROPRACTIC, and get real results. Statesmen, Business Men. Bankets, Brokers, Grand Opera Stars, Actors, Singers, Architects, Ministers, College Presidents. Educators, Doctors, Lawyers, Authors, Journalists and other people of more than average intelligence, make it a practice to visit a CHIROPRACTOR regularly, because they know that CHIROPRACTIC not only makes them well and keeps them well, but also increases the energy, the pep. the vitality, the nerve power which they need to accomplish their work. Intelligent, Ambitious Men and Women Can Become Chiropractors Thousands of men and women- of all ages—are studying this Wonder- Working system of lighting Disease Condition , and of bringing the Human Mind and Body up to as near perfection as they can go. Astonishing results can be obtained, even in cases that have been aban- doned by all other systems of Healing. YOU can join the Profession. YOU. too, can do these things after you have received the proper training. You can study morning or evening to suit your convenience.

City What Gregg Shorthand Would Mean to You To begin to STUDY Gregg Shorthand is to begin to WRITE it On account of the ease with which Gregg Shorthand can be learned, the fluency with which it can be written, and its legibility, you can become proficient in much less time than with the older and more complex systems. Gregg Shorthand does not employ position, shading or disjoined vowels. All the outlines arc of the same thickness and arc written on the line of writing. The vowels represented by hooks and circles arc written in the order in which they occur in ordinary spelling. Mr. William Wheatcroft. long-time editor for Sir Isaac Pitman Son, England, recently said: I have come to the conclusion that Gregg is as superior to Pitman as the modern aeroplane is to the gas balloon.” Gregg Shorthand is tanght exclusively in all but twenty-three small high schools in the great State of New York outside of New York City. In New York City Gregg Shorthand is offered by the High School of Commerce. Itushwick, Far Rockaway, Haarcn, Textile, Evandcr Childs, Julia Richmond, and the Girls Commercial High School of Brooklyn. Also in twelve junior high schools and in a number of evening public schools. The system has been approved by the New York City Board of Education and may be taught in any public school in New York City.
