R. p COLONIAL ECHO- 1920 WIT J. 1 AM IIL ' RD ROYER 1 Here is a curler of the old time type, a chap who has wrung a degree from the obstinate faculty in three college years. His record is one to be proud of, as he has only three C credits chalked up against him and the majority of his work is in the A class. fl Boyer. we are jjroud of you as a student and are sure if hard work and determinatidn bring success, you cannot fail. Our only regret is that we have not been able to know you better, for your books have been too much yoiu friends. The senior class (jf 1920 and your Alma Mater ex])ect much of you and hope for you a future filled with ha])])inehs and success. JULIAN ARLINGTON BROOKS Gentlemen, we invite your attention to an all-round college man. Judy has proved to us that there may be exceptions to the usual opinion that one is never found who possesses the combinations of an athlete, a good student, and a literary man. He has displayed wonderful abilities in all these lines during his sojourn with us. Although small of stature, he is a Hercules in every branch of athletics. His y ' s on the Registrar ' s book speak enough for his mental abilities. It is rumored that Judy is considering the possibilities of entering politics as soon as Woman Suffrage seems assured. He is known to possess those peculiar qualities that make a man acceptable to that sex, so we predict a wonderful success for him in his new adventure. COLONIAL i;,,J£CHO- I920 ' i i — JAMES DURETTE CARNEAL, JR. Although J. D. has left us at the time of this writing, yet his influence for good is still among us. Ha ing secured his Bachelor of Arts degree in February, he has now launched into the great world of business. If he goes after his business as he did after good things while in college, we have nothing but the highest hopes of his ultimate success. Q This youngster took part in all college activities while in college, and every- thing he attempted, he did well. Many organizations and publications can proudly claim him as a member of their staffs or as a business manager. Amid all his duties, he always found time and opportunity to assist in any literary attempt around college. Among the femmes, no explanation of Carneal ' s standing is needed. He is always found among them and can draw them to him by his magnetic powers. However, he never allowed this to detract from his college duties, and hence we find him taking his degree in the short time of three years. Carneal, we expect a great deal of you : march on and don ' t disappoint us. 23 COLONIAL - 1920 JOHN ROBERT CHAPPELL. JR. Chappell blew into our midst just three years ago and in June he leaves us with his sheepskin tucked carefully away. We are hardly surprised, for any man who can grab ads for THE FLAT HAT with the ease that he does, would consider stickmg A.B. after his signature in three years time a small task. As soon as he had registered in his Freshman year, he joined the literary society and ever since his voice has rung throughout the Halls of the Phoenix. She now claims him as her prexie. In his due year. Chap won the right to repre- sent W. and M. in the State Oratorical Contest. He didn ' t win, but he made a good attempt. In the classrooms Chappell is a twister, and on the campus he is known and liked by all. The class of ' 20 considers itself lucky in being able to claim him among her members. We know he will succeed, and wish him good luck. 24 COLONIAL ECHO- 1920 WAI.TKR HU(iHART CHEATHA I fl Now there is no connectidii hot ween the face of the Charlie you see on this page and that CharHe whose name is posted in flaming colors on the front of every movie theatre, and for many weeks no such connection was formed on the campus. But one day there appeared on the upper lip of the above gentle- man a growth of fuzz, the beginning of a moustache. Then and there the wire- less flashed through the mind of every student on the campus, Charlie Chaplin, and it stuck. fl But seriously, the senior class of 1920 expects great things of its black-haired President. An ability to lead men, a keen and energetic mind, backed by a cherry hail-fellow-well-met are characteristics which must carry him to the summit of success. And his accomplishments in college very strongly verify such a predic- tion. His numerous activities attest his interest in aiTairs surrounding him and a mountain of A ' s in the registrar ' s office deny any imputation that he has neglected his classes. fl . character strong as Gibraltar and a heart that is the truest of the true are (|ualities that will ever win him friends. Here ' s to you Charlie! But live up to what the senior class expects of you and William and Mary will have an aluniiuis before whom the world nnist bow in reverence and respect. COLONIAL ECHO- 1920 EDGAR LINWOOD CONNELLEE Here ' s the boy from the land of the Rappahannock, and a fellow worth know- ing to be sure. Few men indeed have made more friends and done more good, sincere work than this light haired lad. fl Connellee believes there is a time for work and a time for play, and he knows how to do both very well. Steady, calm, always in full possession of himself, he is a man to be admired and trusted. When anyone wants anything done, he may readily call on this gentleman, for he is ever ready and willing to lend a helping hand. This characteristic has gone a long way towards making him many friends. Our friend formerly was quite a star among the femmes, but for some reason, perhaps known only to himself, his pursuits have ceased to lead him in that direction. We trust that his estrangement will not prove fatal and hope to see him soon back at his old habits. But whether he returns or not, we predict for him a life of success and distinction. 26 COLONIAL ECHO- I920 ROBERT WATSON COPELAXD fl We present, herewith, the ladies man of the class of ' 20, Copie. Doubtless, if you were to ask him for his candid opinion of co-education, you would get a favorable reply. There ' s a reason ! He is one of our most frequent intruders of Tyler Half. Besides being a ladies man, he is an athlete of no little ability ; he won con- siderable fame on the gridiron the past season. fl Copie is a quiet, unassuming fellow, who generally gets what he goes after. He answered Uncle Sam ' s call and was commissioned a first lieutenant in the regular army. After being released from the service, he came back to College for two reasons : first, to play football ; second, to get his degree. Since he has attained his two ambitions he is ready to leave us. CiO. Copie, success is yours. 27 COLONIAL ECHO- 1920 WILLIAM WILKENS FARMER fl The bearer of the above cognomen is better known as Ciric on the campus. He has been with us so long that we cannot see how the College is going to do without Gric Farmer. Farmer is an ex-teacher of the Virginia young. Al- though he had gotten a good start in this profession, he returned to college this fall to acquire the coveted B.A., degree, which he has striven so long for, by curling the professors, and thus making them realize that the crimson dome which he possesses is only a shield of a large quantity of gray matter. Gric bears the reputation of being the only married man in the class, but this fact does not keep him from being a loyal son of the College, and a man that the class of ' 20 is proud of. 28 COLONIAL ECHO- 1920 HERBERT SMITH FENTRESS We are all willing and glad to admit that we know Specks. He is the kind of man who it is a pleasure to meet, an ever-increasing joy to know, and a source of deep regret to part with. Specks has always been prominently asso- ciated with all phases of college life. He is an all-round athlete and pronounced by a member of the fairer sex as, the best looking man in a football suit, that she had ever seen. Never think, however, that all of Specks activities have been confined to the college. There are many who will tell you this and Specks himself might be forced to admit it. We all feel that in losing Specks we lose one of the best all-round men we have ever known and a gentleman in the high- est sense. We wish him all the success which we think he deserves, and look forward to hearing ' great thinsjs from him. 29 VAN FRANKLIN GARRETT, JR. fl Ladies and Gentlemen : We have before us the petite figure of Van Franklin Garrett, Jr., better known around the campus as Van. He is the ladies ' man of the class. Ask anybody around Tyler Hall if they know Van. He is hard to know, but once you know him you feel that he is well worth knowing. When it comes to pulling down A ' s in his classes, he is right there. We entertain no fear as to his future success. Here ' s to you. Van. We predict for you a future filled with happiness and prosperity. Don ' t get discouraged because you are small, for smaller men than you have often moved great mountains; we are sure of your success. 30 COLONIAL m li ;, ECHO- I920 .MAJOR -AIcKINLEY HILLARD Here comes Major McKinley, who is widely known on the campus for his achievements in pedagogical research. In other activities in which he has taken a spirited part, he has easily reached the summit. Hillard is a gentleman and an inspiration to all those who come in contact with him. and he is wel- comed all over the campus as generous, well met fellow. Hillard, may your future be as bright as your past, and may you add glory and prestige to the class of ' 20. You are able to give a good account of yourself, so why not launch out in the great business of life. We feel sure you can do all any son of William and Mary is called upon to do. 31 COLONIAL I ECHO- 1920 CLAUDE ALEXANDER JOYCE fl ' We would like to dub him the grind of the Senior Class, but for the fact of his natural ability in the mental line. The seriousness and earnestness with which he started on the road to his degree stamp him a thorough and not-to-be- dismayed man in all he undertakes. While diligent and industrious in all the many activities that claim his efforts here at William and Mary, he has ever a winsome smile which displays a row of pearly teeth for any vho chance his acquaintance. His specialty is logic. And his reasoning on any matter is of the best : hence the rush he gets in answering many important ciuestions pertaining to all phases of student life. Above all he is a true and loyal Lidian, and that places him above reproach. He won ' t tell us her name, but we have the goods on him in the evidence of his numerous letters. Joyce, you have proved your worth to us. It is only left for the world to know your good qualities as we do. 32 COLONIAL ECHO- I920 •rtiiiiiiiLtini HENRY MARTIX LEWIS, JR. fl Behold the gentleman who liails from Lynchburg. He is a science shark and a debater as well as an athlete. During his stay at William and Mary, he has stored away as many A ' s as any man of the class. Curling seems to have become chronic with him. although he frequently takes time to visit Tyler Hall. Lewis is a typical ' irginia gentleman, possessing a high code of morals as well as a Little Age. He has an inexhaustible supply of knowledge forever on hand and can use it to good etfect. He has had experience in everything from mili- tary tactics to teaching, and success is his wherever he goes. Lewis, the class of ' 20 is honored to claim you. and is expecting great things of vou. 33 COLONIAL ECHO- I920 JOHN CORIDEN LYONS John C. swooped down upon us three and a half years ago from the wilds north of the Mason Dixon ' s line, and in that brief time we have almost trans- formed him into a real Virginian. He didn ' t come to us that cold February night with any blowing of horns, but it didn ' t take the Faculty long to realize that a mighty curler was among them, and they were compelled to solemnly decree that A was his regular mark, and no deviation from that standard has been noted. To impress these facts upon the public he has been known to reach up and pull down one of those coveted scholarships, and it is not a wild predic- tion that he is fulfilling the requirements for another. . Aside from his conquest of faculty, French verbs and an unfaltering pursuit of biological facts through the study of catalog, no one can predict the outcome of his teachings when the girls are heard to say Plus je le connais, 4)lus je I ' aime. He, with others, is also a past master in water tossing. Here ' s to you, J. C, an agreeable companion, a good friend, and a student par excellence ! 34 COLONIAL RAYMOND SISSON fl Here we have a fair-haired, hlue-eyed Senior who has come to us from the quiet seclusion of the Rappahannoci valley. A man of the calm, unruffled type with a genial smile for all he meets ; hut that he can frown as well was proved when he sailed across the sea to help France wipe off the sort of smile he does not like from the face of von Tripitz. Fighting Germans was not the only thing he did in France. He learned some things as well, and when Professor Williams wanted some one to help him teach his French, he called on Raymond. His best friends have heard a good deal about the many excellent traits of the French people from him, and he is particu- larly fond of expatiating upon the virtues of a certain little Madamoiselle some- where in France. fl He is also chairman of the local p ost of the American Legion, and introduces the illustrious speakers, who come to address them, with consummate ease. 35 ' ? ' Ssiiiismias sxsRf! X!f fK s Mi HOWARD CHANDLER SMITH fl Smittie, or Dimples, one of our frizziest curlers, and the idol of many a fair one ' s heart, came to us three years ago, and has proved that he can twist by taking a degree in that short time. As for the idol part of this brief biography, one glance at his dimples, his never failing smile, and an earful of his mountain dialect, are obviously enough to set any sweet young thing ' s heart acrobating. Howard, as his family call him, has the face of an angle, but bum — bum — you ' d be surprised. He had the honor of managing the championship nine of 1919. It was largely due to his efficient leadershij) that the team enjoyed such a successful career. Q Smittie can get down to work and do more in a short while than most peo- ple, and due to this, we are looking for great things from our classmate at_Johns Hopkins, where he expects to take an M. D. fl The class of 1920 wishes you hick, Alexis Carrell. ' Smittie. and mav vou be a second 36 COLONIAL ECHO- I920 DA 11) (iARDINPZR TYLER fl Behold the likeness of one of the illustrious sons of William anil Mary! Gardiner came to us four years ago and entered the Royal Road to Learning. Judge, by which he is best known about College, is a great ladies ' man. lli.s love stories are thrilling and you have only to consult him in order to be convinced. Besides making many hits with the ladies, Judge has succeeded in wresting a degree from William and Mary. Judge is prominent in literary circles as well as in many other college activ- ities. His record shows manv A ' s and B ' s to his credit. Without him, Cal- culus! ?) and Physics would feel lost. He is a shark in these subjects and is well known to the ]:)rofessors in charge. Judge is ready to stand up for New- ton ' s Theories in spite of the encroachment of one of Kaiser Bill ' s subjects. 111 his graduation, William and Mary will lose an energetic student, who will be missed on all sides. You can depend on ' nim. He is loved and admired by the Faculty as well as his fellow student, and above all, loves his Alma Mater. i Judge, the class of ' 20 is proud of you and has reason to expect great things of you. But in bidding you au rc oir we can never forget you. 37 COLONIAL ECHO- I920 ROBERT PERRY WALLACE Robert Perry Wallace, better known as Fats, hails from Hampton and there they have a right to be proud of him. He came here in 1914, and has been an important person at this institution since that time. fl From his first year he has stored up A ' s for the reckoning day. Besides, he has proved his ability as an athlete: The football team claims him as its Stone- wall, and the basketball team claims him as its star. In 1917, Fats answered his country ' s call. Besides a student and an ath- lete, he proved a real soldier. He was formerly a member of the famous 29th Division and showed ability as a military tactician, winning a commission in the United States Army. He returned to this institution again in 1919. In the classroom he has been a curler, in athletics, a prominent figure, and at Tyler Hall an ardent admirer. A student, athlete, soldier and gentlemen are the qualities possessed by this figure. fl Fats, the class of 1920 is proud of you as its member, and we are expecting great things of you. 38 COLONIAL ECHO- 1920 YtTTriTirfttirtjf History 6? Class 6 1920 UE history, it has been said, cannot be written until time rolls into years and years into centuries. The deeds of Washington and the life of Lee are probably more appreciated today than they were in the ears of their own lives. But the deeds and accomplishments of the class of 1920 need no centuries to brighten the record which they have established here during the four years of their work. Year after year historians have meted out the merits of their classes. They have extolled their virtues ami labored on their accomplishments. And fellow classmates, we can justly be proud that they have not exaggerated their powers nor painted too bright a picture of the things they had done and could do. For the history of ' illiam and Mary needs no corroboration from the pen of a his- torian so humble to prove the record of her sons. Theoretically, the history of the class of 1920 dates back to the year 1916, when about ninety-five green, shapeless individuals timidly affixed their names to the registrar ' s book in the office of Mr. Bridges. Every possible specimen of humanity was represented in that class, known more commonly as dues, though perhaps the farmer boy held the majority. ' Twas his lot to draw the heaped-up utterances of ridicule, for his every action stamped him as the greenest product his father had ever shipped. At the beginning of our second year we entered the gates of the campus as revengeful Sophs. We had made one round in the ladder of college life. And we assumed an attitude of all-importance to the crystals of ignorance who were just entering the path along which we had so recently passed. One fact was clearly proved at the beginning of our second year in college : that there is no royal road to education was evidenced by the decrease in our numbers. Just as we had been transformed from a green and innocent Freshman to a hard and revengeful Sophomore, so from this same Sophomore we returned the following year as solemn and serene Juniors. We had viewed now our more exalted classmates for three years. We had seen them reach the goal of their •present endeavor and sail out into the sea of life, eager to pass over its un- known depths. They had imbued in us aspirations which should have for us tluir fullillnient when the month of June rolls into its own. And here we are at the acme of our college career, proud and dignified Sen- iors. Through the four years of our stay here, we have, as classes do, de- creased. War and what not have thinned our ranks to our present number of nineteen. But with an insatiable ambition burning within us we have each suc- ceeding vear renewed and redoubled our efforts in the direction of our aim. 39 COLONIAL .Mm%m,.ECUO- 1920 P ' art of our history is veiled in a cloud of uncertainty, and perhaps, better it were, for some of the thoughtless deeds of our infancy here at William and Mary would not elevate us in the esteem of those most sagacious of mortals, the dispensers of degrees. Throughout, our record shows that we have not central- ized in any one branch of college activity. We have been characterized by a spreading influence into every phase of college life. And in this our Senior year we had four men on the football eleven, with many aspirants ; one on the basketball team ; and a reserved estimate that at least two of our number will grace the baseball team in the spring. This speaks well for an athletic record. We have the editor-in-chief, with three on the stafif of the Colonial Echo ; the editor-in-chief of our weekly, The Flat Hat with two on the stafif; editor-in- chief of the Literary Magazine, and ofificers in both literary societies ; a prestige which any class may well be proud of in the literary circle of any school. Then we have managers of teams, presidents and ofTicers of many clubs, teachers and assistant instructors, married men, near-married men, preachers, bull artists, crap artists and artists ad infinitum. We do not boast of a class of curlers. but our marks in general, have shown that we are a bunch of equals, with a possible few rising slightly above the average, and a minimum few falling below it. Our class would not be in accord with those of former years if it could not boast of a grind, calico sport and a few sons of Take-It-Easy. As for the grinds, we have two as typical as the original. However; we had to let them exist as such in order that our lower classmates might have good examples set for them. As for calico sports the whole class has been lacerated by the darts of that little bowman, Cupid. Perhaps the fact that so many of our class have become willing victims may be accounted for by the presence of our fair- co-eds. You remember the triangle ; man-woman-love. Of course we have those unfathomable beings, those sons of procrastination, who never seem to have anything to do. but who wreck our reason as to how they get by. The class of 1920 has witnessed probably more momentous issues of the world, more labor and industrial upheavals of the nation and more political and economical unrest of the state in the world ' s trend of events than any of its predecessors. And even here at our Alma Mater we have borne presence to many changes. By an act of the 1917 session of the General Assembly we have seen the first women admitted on an equal basis with men to the second oldest college in America. We have seen varying displacements and replacements in our beloved Facvdty. And finally, we have witnessed an administration under a new head — a new era — an awakening that nuist surely come when a man of Dr. Chandler ' s qualities takes up the reins in the interests of his Alma Mater. Dr. Tyler, the retired President, whose faithful and untiring efforts have kept the old college apace with those of her standing, carries with him to his newly chosen field of endeavors, the love, the respect and the wishes of those who, as students, came into this College under his administration. Dr. Chandler comes to us with our deep-seated conviction that he will add to the lustre and lore of the old school a name that will outstretch any that her past may have attained, and give to her that pinnacle of prestige among the colleges of our nation which she so much deserves. 40 COLONIAL ECHO- 1920 And hciw, dear classmates, we cmne V this, tlie curtain-fall in the last scene in tile lirst drama of life. The rocky road over which we have wound our way has been rough in jilaces, and its windings and hardships have not been over- come without a great degree of energy and determination on our part. How- ever, with a just and helpful h ' aculty to guide our steps on this upward journey, and aspirations and inspirations accpu ' red from the satellites of the sons of this, our dear Mother of Learning we have arrived at the mount of our endeavors. We have had our failures, disappointments, and sorrow, but we have emerged from the melee of those experiences better and wiser men. Our hopes and our aims have ever been of the highest, and we have labored with a determination that knows no failure and is strange to defeat. The State, the Nation, the World, looks to the colleges for men — men of trained mind, strong in thought and noble of character. And we sincerely be- lieve that the class of 1920 of the College of William and Mary will satisfv this demand to a degree that will reflect a glorious light upon her future in a manner that she has shed her illustrious light upon us in the four years of her minis- tering now past. As the doors of our beloved college swing slowly open and we pass through to leave forever her hallowed and time-honored walls as students, a feeling of pride mingled with sorrow permeates our being. May that most fickle of God- desses, Luck, bring us together and back here at times while laboring in the duties before us along the paths of our life. And may hopes, ideals and ambitions given birth in youthful hearts find a way to expressions despite the hardships of an unsympathetic world. And now the task of your scribe is done. If in the sunset glow of later years this eii ' ort upon my part to paint a picture of our four years ' stay here may recall happy events and memories, may give inspiration to any or bring a cherry smile of recollection to one of our class, then I quit my pen with the consolation that the eft ' ort is worth the prize. One long, lingering, look, dear 1920 departs. . lma Mater — a farewell — and the class of HiSTORI.VN. 41 COLONIAL ECHO- 1920 Phrophecy of Class of 1920 O SAY that I was exasperated when I learned that my squadron had Ijecn ordered to India would be putting it mildly. Sm M j) We had been in England three weeks and everyone was ex- ■ — pected to go to France; but at retreat on the 9th of November, 1917, we were told to prepare for a trip on one of the Indian liners, and it took little imagination to decide what our destination would be. India must be the hottest country on the globe, and as I look back on it I hardly see how 1 survived. The monotony was almost as deadly as the heat. However, I was able to break the former in the company of an old Hindu priest who seemed to take a sort of paternal interest in me, and often attempted to induce me to try to fathom the shadows which he claimed coming events cast before them. Perhaps it was the heat, or it may have been a natural antipatliy to things based upon such flimsy logic as the prenatural. At any rate, I was amused and nothing more. When we were ordered out of India the old priest gave me a small crystal which he said I would be able to use only once, but that a time would come in my life when nothing could take its place. I smiled, took the crystal, more to please my swarthy friend than anything else, packed it up in my barracks bag and forgot all about it, until about a year later when I was peremptorily elected prophet of my class. The position was quite a hovel o ne and half amused and half angered me to think that as intellectual a class of men as I was graduating with could seri- ously expect me to tell what the future held for each one. While trving to decide if either horn of my dilemma offered a solution, or if it were possible to escape between the two, the Indian crystal suddenly oc- curred to me. So in a whin sical mood, I went to my trunk to see ii I had brought it with me, and sure enough, down in the bottom in one comer I found the little sphere all packed away in cotton just as it had been given to me. I took it up and began to examine it. My interest had grown considerably, I found, since I left the country where such things are of daily occurrence. As I inspected it, I found written on the surface: Here lies the future of the class of 1920, as it shall be twenty years from now. 42 COLONIAL .. ta. ECHO- I920 This amazed me to such an extent that I got my pen and paper and sat down in real earnest to solve my problem. The crystal seemed cloudy at first, hut gradually became clear, until a beautiful yacht stood out before me. She was steaming ahead at about full s])eed, I imagine, from the way she cut through the light swell of the sea. There was a man seated on her after deck, reading an editorial in the New York Times. I noticed a column headed : Our editor takes short vacation on his yacht. This turned my attention to the man who was reading. I could hardly believe my eyes. There sat the lone Al. A. of our class, A. P. Elliott. When the mist cleared again, I was in the City of Washington. The scene glided swiftly along until it came to the Capitol Building. The next thing I saw was a man sitting in an elegantly furnished office, dictating a letter. Then the stenographer went to his machine, and I saw him write the following letter : April 6, 1920. Dear Dr. Chandler : It will give me great pleasure to address the students of William and Mary during your next commencement. The amazing success with which you have met as President of iny beloved Alma JNIater has been a source of constant wonder to me. I think I may be pardoned for a feeling of pride which came over me a few days ago, when in comparing the two catalogues, I noticed that William and Mary had just tw ' enty- three students more than Harvard. Very truly yours, The next thing I saw was the man who had dictated the letter signing his name. Mirable dictu, he wrote: Walter H. Cheatham. The crystal became blank and the next scene was a beautiful country home. Around it stretched broad fields of grain, and in one field there was a large herd of cattle. I was wondering who could be the proud possessor of so much world- ly wealth, when the postman came along, and as he put the letters in the box, I read: W. H. Boyer, Esq., Mr. W. H. Boyer, W. H. Boyer, Jr., Miss Ruth Royer, Mrs. W. H. Boyer, Miss Helen Boyer, and then there was a card for .Master Ernest Boyer. It was plainly evident that my old classmate had settled down and become a famil - man of the first water. The picture vanished, and the next thing I saw was the Duke of Gloucester street and on one corner of one of the bank buildings I saw a row of signs hung one above the other. Beginning at the top, I read Dr. Davis, Dr. Striker, Dr. Julian Brooks, Dentists. So 1 thought to myself that dear old Judy has his heart ' s desire, and I expect business must have been pretty good, as I saw a seven-passenger Pierce-.Vrrow standing at the curb with J. B. on the door. 43 Then followed a scene in Paris. The President of France and several of his engineers were poring over a plan which seemed to interest them very much. As the mist cleared, I read in one corner of the large sheet: Plan for the restoration of the Cathedral of Rhiems. J. D. Carneal, Jr. Next I saw an office window in Richmond. On it was written : J. R. Chap- pelle. Real Estate. Again darkness and then I found myself looking at two people walking towards me. The time seemed about 4 o ' clock in the afternoon, and judging from the leisurely manner in which the people were walking, I think it must have been Sunday. The place was the suburbs of a medium sized city, and the couple I had seen first seemed to be enjoying some old joke, and whenever they would pass a one-story building, it seemed to be especially funny. At length they passed directly in front of me, and I had no trouble in recognizing Copie and Maude. They were still inspecting bungalows. Then followed the interior of a large hall. The scene flowed along by numerous doors until it reached one marked Faculty Room. Within I saw a large number of men sitting around a long table. Glancin down the table, I saw M. M. Hilliard, C. A. Joyce, W. W. Farmer and my old friend, Lewis. Lying on the table was a catalogue, and I read : Annual Bulletin of the Johns Hop- kins University. At firs t I could make nothing of what followed, but as it became distinct, I saw it was a copy of the New York Times. The headline ran: The Prince of Wales Will Live, and tmder it, The greatest stride towards perfection that the medical profession has yet achieved was made this morning when Dr. D. G. Tyler, Jr., announced that his operation upon the Crown Prince was a success. The Prince arrived at Dr. Tyler ' s private hospital late last night by aeroplane from London. I expect Elliott was glad to write that column. After that I saw a large man sitting at a desk, and when he gave the paper that he had just signed to the man who was standing by him, I saw that it was a pardon for a circumstantial conviction for murder. He continued to gaze out of the window for some time after the man went out ; but finally he turned so that I could see him, and there was Bob Wallace, Governor of Virginia, with a heart as big as it was when I knew him at College, preferring that the guilty go unpunished rather than that the innocent should suft ' er. Again a paper ;ip]3eared. This time it was the Richmond Times Dispatch. and the most interesting article I saw was : Smith becomes senior senator from Virginia, while the junior honor is held by L. E. Bush. It is somewhat strange that both of these men should have graduated from William and Mar} ' in the now famous class of 1920. In one corner, I saw an advertisement which read: F entress, Love and Sisson, Attorneys-at-Law. 44 COLONIAL ECHO- I920 The next scene was in China. The sun was sinking behind a mountain and in the valley I saw a large crowd assembled around someone who was preach- ing. When I could recognize him 1 discovered that Van Franklin (larrett, Jr., had chosen the most noble ])rofession of any member of our class, and had become a missionary to labor for humanity among the heathen in a foreign land. The crystal became blank, and then appeared As for thyself, read the first sentence of the eleventh ode in the first book of Horace. It ran : Tu ne quaesieris, scire nefas, queni niihi. (|UL ' ni tibi Finem di dederint, Teucanoe, ncc Babylonias Temptaris numeros. bits As I closed the book, the crystal slipped from my hand, and shattered into 45 - 1920 College Years Let ' s remember every day, Every hour of the way All the sweetness of your play. College Years. Let us cherish every sorrow Even bitter memories borrow. Just to banish some tomorrow ' s Haunting fear. We have fought, forgot, forgiven.

If there can be any doubt in anyone ' s mind, especially among those who have known Leslie ' since he appeared on our horizon three years ago, about his great ability along some lines, attend French lectures ! The pro- fessor of jModem Languages admits that he saves time by asking Bush a ques- tion when he wants to find out what Zirkie knows, for conversation during lec- tures prepare Bush, to impart all that both know. If then one is not satisfied that our lad is of such ability that we feel proud to have him in our class, con- sider him as one of the chief watchdogs at Tyler Hall, though he never barks aloud — or recall his being Assistant Librarian and having had his name placed among those of our Honor Rolls with the various curlers. To graduate at Suminer Session, 1920. 47 COLONIAL ECHO- I920 VIRGINIUS JEFFRES LOVE fl And now, gentle friends, let us take a look at j Iike. He is a fellow who is loved by all those who know him and is one of the most popular fellows on the campus. He has been a member of the Monogram Club for four years and as captain of the baseball team of 1919 and as second baseman, he has won decided honors for himself. When a ball comes anywhere in his reach, he is sure to get it and his wonderful plays have meant many a victory for the Indians. Q But do not let us think for a moment that this is all due him. As a dancer he is most excellent and is a fond lover of the ladies. But how could we expect him to be other than a lover when his name is Love? Frequently he visits Tyler Hall, but he never lets the ladies come between him and his books. Here ' s luck to you Mike. We know you ' ll succeed.

Such attributes arc seldom found in one person who is also ve.y intellec- tual and studious. Martha is at once a thorough- student and a sure enough sport. Bab.s — adjectives weren ' t made with which to describe vou. LOREN BENNETT fl Can it be possible that this lad is a junior? Yes, the smiling angel of the campus is num- bered among those favored few. Bash fulness, youth and intelligence are some of the char- acteristics of the youngest junior in college. Loren has never told anyone what profession he expects to follow, but it is hinted that he will be a clock fixer. We have every reason to believe that he will make a good one. HERBERT LEE BRIDGES, JR. Lee is, beyond doubt, the curler of the cl ass. He is always in good humor and always busy, either talking to the ladies or expounding some new theory in physics, though occasionally he condescends to brave the paths of the scholars who have gone before. Lee makes a success of everything that he undertakes and, knowing that he will persist in this, the class is sure of his ultimate success. COLONIAL ECHO- 1920 LUCILE BROWN Brownie — isn ' t she cute? Brownie is small but her scholastic attainments are vast in comparison. Wherein lies the life and soul of the Whitehall Literary Societj ' in its Presi- dent — Lucile. She is demure and pleasing, full of college spirit and an interested promoter of school activities. What more can we ask of one girl? RUTH CASHION Cashion has come to us from the great wide West, bringing with her an atmosphere of its characteristic thoroughness and sim- plicity. Cashion is one of these frank, open- hearted, thorough-going girls that seem to us to typify the West. We like her for all her Westernisms and would not have her changed for all the world. AL BERNICE CLARKE •I Here is a man of untiring energy, striving conscientiously to attain those high ideals necessary for good citizenship and ' a career that will justify the consideration of men. A. B. has a tender heart which seems to burst forth in spontaneous sympathy for those who are sick or distressed. Clarke, there is no doubt but tliat success will crown your endeavors. 52 COLONIAL %.JCHO- I920 JAMES ANDERSON CONWA •, JR. Jimmy comes to us from the Academy, where he first proved his ability to obtain his portion of A ' s and B ' s. His congenial person- ality has won for him the favor of his fellow students. As a musician he leads his class. If you doubt his ability, ask him to play his violin, mandolin, or guitar. He can find your responsive chord with each of them. He is deeply imbued with college spirit and is a true son of William and Mary. iMORRIS WILLIAM DERR This majestic looking youth goes to college for his health, to wit, ere he wandered to our ancient halls. He spent a year at Nashota House, Wisconsin, but did not like the climate ; from there he went to Racine College, and after spending two years there, came to us. Since his arrival he has. done several things, iimong which is to amass eighteen credits in Greek, which is a most extraordinary accom- plishment these days. In love he is less suc- cessful. If you doubt it just a.sk Shorty. CHARLES J. DUKE I From Wake Forest has come to us here the specimen who has been accused of having such an aristocratic air. Duke does not deserve such to be thrust on him. He is well known on the campus and appears to have a talent in some lines that most Mexican Athletes do not possess. He will very likely show us later some of his talents as a physicist ! ! COLONIAL ECHO- I920 MALCOLM DEWEY FOSTER M. D., our Northern Neck product, is so congenial, so quiet, and so unassuming that we are coming to look for his broad smiles every day. He is the type of fellow you can always get along with. He is a lover of good music, dancing and athletics. He possesses the distinguishable qualities of a good student, too, as his grades will show. The class is glad to boast of him as being one out of the three of the class to get the W M sweater decoration in football. WALTER EDWARD CAREER Joe is the faithful Indian who returned ti) College this year after serving overseas; he helped to compose Coach Driver ' s football team which was made up mostly of old veterans both on the gridiron and battle field. Joe has a very calm appearance, but when in football togs this mild face is transformed and becomes one of stone, which spells defeat to his adversary. Aside from his athletic powers he curls the professors, too. Joe is an all-round sport and one who strives to put William and Mary at the top of the ladder. Meet him, fellows, he ' ll not disappoint you. ALPHEUS HERMAN GOSLEE flHere is Mutt, a shark on the gridiron. He has attained the height of athletic glory. Mutt is a scholar as well as an athlete. He has specialized in Co-education, and seems to have won a good deal of renown in that field of research. To this we might add that he is an active participant in everything our Alma Mater undertakes and will be some pumpkins next year, as a Senior. I Luck to you, Alutt, we are proud of you. 54 COLONIAL ECHO- 1920 EDWIN S. H. GREEN Q Edwin hails from the imrthcrn part of the State. During the war he developed his pugi- hstic instinct and now challenges anyone to don the gloves against him. His combative instinct, however, does not keep him from admiring the girls, and Tyler Hall is often enlivened by his smiling countenance. Edwin is an all around college student. He stars on the track team, and frequently curls in the class room. We predict that his success will do honor to his Alma Mater. RICHARD LEONARD HENLEY Now you may consider for a moment this tall, stately looking individual from the city of Williamsburg. Dignified to the last notch, he adds dignity to everything he touches. Then, too, he is a useful man to liave around, for he can always be relied upon to do what is expected of him. Here ' s to you, Dick, nothing bad can happen to a man of your character. HOWARD STUART HOLMES The object of this sketch is to introduce you to one of William and Mary ' s most loving sons. A man ' s love is seldom stronger than that of Holmes ' . If you have noticed his inte rest in his Alma Mater, you will be thor- oughly convinced. It would take a column to do him justice, although he is not the author of the Autocrat at the Breakfast Table. We can say no more than when God made !iim. He made him well. COLONIAL ECHO- 1920 EDWARD DEWEY HUDSON Behold the quiet and unassuming lad ! He is a genius, a gentleman, and an athlete. He is a S|)ccialist in biology, and, if you are seeking information of that nature, consult him. He is a charter member of the W. T. C. U. club. During his stay with us, he has not dis- tinguished himself only in science, but he has also won equally as much eclat on our quint. Keep it up, E. D., we are behind you. Who knc ' ws what the future has in store for you? WALTER ROBERT HUDSON Walter Robert Hudson, better known as Num, ' ' comes to us from Orange County. He is a hard working student and with his curling hopes to be an agriculturalist some day. He is seen at all bon fires and increases the joy of the celebration by giving us a snappy foot shake. He has a strong desire for the opposite sex. Keep curling, Num, and you will succeed. ARTHUR WARREN JOHNSON Deacon, as he is generally known, is one of those pleasing personalities who makes life run smoothly and who radiates a pleasant spirit among his fellow students. Wlien it conies to popularity, Deacon cannot be sur- passed. He is a lover of philosophy and if you are in doubt as to a philosophical question, see him. He is quite a student, too, and we hope the future has great things in store for liiin. 56 COLONIAL ■ (.i.ijO ECHO- I920 ALEXANDER DAVID JOYNER QHere we have an unusual cointiination ! Joyner is a good student though he is very seldom in his boudoir on the east side of Evifell Observatory. Red is one of the most determined of our Indian eleven. The harder he has to fight in a football game the better he likes it. Football is by no means the only branch of athletics in which Red shows ability. He has made other contestants go down in defeat in track, has knocked several out on the basketball court and played baseball abroad. Though he is not a woman hater, he must not be called a nonpareil in the power of persuasion — to say tlie least he is nonchalant. Hdw will you judge him? BLANCHE KENNEDY Straight A ' s on Calculus and Physics — can you beat that? Blanche can do it. Is there any wonder that we look on her with admiring eyes and feel proud that she is among us? Though quiet and unobtrusive, she responds so generously to situations that we feel the personality back of it all. HORTENSE LEWIS Tense is a clever little girl. Her specialty is domestic science. We wonder if she won ' t make practical use of it and that soon. School spirit, joviality, and good comradeship are personified in Hortense. Tense. old dear, you ' re a good sport and charming girl. Can we pay you a bigger compliment? S7 COLONIAL ECHO- 1920 CHAPMAN SOCRATES MOORMAN I If any of our dear readers don ' t know or haven ' t seen Turkey, why something is terribly wrong with them. His famous shriek is a pleasant sound to every Indian, and as it pierces the air, all are reminded of the time of Pocahontas and John Smith. I Socks is a killer among the fair ones, and spends a large part of his time with them. Go to it, old boy. all of us would do it, if we could. ALBERT ROSS MUSICK Before us appears the face of a Curler, who came to us from the wild, wooly South- west, bringing with him those philosophical tendencies which have been constantly develop- ing ever since. He is a Peptonist in the real sense of the word, and when there is a difficult problem to be solved, he is the first on the job. His record as a student, and in the service of Iiis country is one to be envied, and since he has been visiting Tyler Hall, some of the co-eds are becoming very Musickal. Here ' s wishing you, Musick, much success in the future. ROBIN H. OWEN Focus your optics for a moment upon the Socrates of our class. Pinkie, as the ladies call him, is always attracting attention around the campus but not without cause. His ever smiling countenance and friendly disposition have won for him a host of friends around the campus. Besides being a ladies man. Pinkie is a twister, and an athlete of no mean ability, a good all around man, and we are proud to have you in our class. No matter wliat vocation you may pursue, success is yours. We hope to hear of you later. COLONIAL ECHO- I920 THORPE L. PLRCKLL fl Allow us to present to you now the real and genuine Prodigal Son. He often wanders away to other institutions of uncertain merits, hut each time he finds his way back to dear old William and Mary. Thorpe is a great fellow to have around, and when he leaves us next year, we shall surely miss him. T. L. is a scream when it comes to politics ; he can secure more votes in an hour than every man on the campus combined. INGER SCHEIE Inger is a profound student and an enthus- iastic follower of Domestic Science training. Her marks betray the unusual ability she possesses. Although we don ' t know Inger very well, we delight in having with us such a gentle, kind-hearted and amiable girl. In her, Farmville lost a gem which it was our luck to find. LUNSFORD HALEY SETTLE Lunsford Haley Settle; how college batters do tremble before his powerful frame ! fl Hal ey is quite a quiet fellow until you get him started and then there is something doing. C| He is our star twirler and loves it dearly, l)ut still, always finds time for his classes. He is a steady and strong fellow and all of us are watching him. Take life easy, old boy, and you will reach your goal all right. h—— -tiii.i COLONIAL ECHO- 1920 JAMES BATHURST SMITH Some people call him Mr. Smith, but most of us call him J. B. And that appellation is quite sufficient, for he is not at all particular about his name. His handsome face and black hair are the apples of his eye, and he guards them with great care and anxiety. Go to it Smith, old boy, a great reputation lies in waiting for you. HERBERT L. SPAIN Espagnol hails from Dinwiddie county. He is a typical student, faitliful in all his college duties and the various activities of college life. His great outdoor sport is tennis, and he is an ardent supporter of the movies. In the social ife of Williamsburg he is well know, and always enjoys the social gatherings of the young people. Espagnol has a combination of humor and imagination along with the sterner qualities of cliaracter. His future prospects are bright. .TOSI. H ALBERT STANLEY Joe, as he is generally known, is just about as sincere and open-hearted a chap as you ever run across. He is a true Indian through and through. He is quite a student, too, and the seriousness with which he has undertaken his work spells success for him. He is going to make good. Watch him. 60 COLONIAL ECHO- I920 ' «?U, ' « l••.M()R • VOORHEES STOWITTS J A clever fellow well met ! TIioukIi lie has liccii absent from W. ■ M.

RUSSELL RANDOLPH THOMPSON fl Meet Tommy, a true Indian, a youngster who is full of real college spirit. You can ' t find a better friend than Tommy in College. He loves athletics and never tires working on Cary Field. His greatest ambition is to make the varsity team in football before he gradu- ates next year. Tommy doesn ' t feel satisfied with helping carry the banner of the College in athletics. He is a good student. We find that he is one of those fellows we like to associate with. We look forward to his success in accomplishing his ambition. He will make W. F. WARD CJ We hail you, Slim, from Emory and Henry College. Slim is a suitable name for this boy of wit and humor. He has a shapely bead, full of rare knowledge. His opinions on Genesis should not be doubted. He is a man of high ideals and aspirations. Slim is a good worker, he has the inclination to purr around the ladies like a veteran. Each term he puts away about eighteen credits for future use. Wait and sec the results. 6l COLONIAL ECHO- 1920 CARL ALBERT ZOLLINGER Here ' s the happy boy from Saxe, Virginia. Fellows, it ' s a treat to know Zollinger.

COLONIAL i ' ;A, SCV, ECHO- 1920 History Class 6 1921 O, we did not enter here three years ago and remain here until the present time. Out of our great number, there are five of us who entered five years ago, but were called away to help stem the tide of the great conflict which has just past. There were many who lost their lives, some re-entered College earlier and have graduated, but we count ourselves over very often to see if we are still here. Since returning, we find there have been many changes and many traditions broken. First, we find a new President. Second, we find our roster is not composed of men alone. Naturally the love for old College has been re-enforced since the Ante Bclliim days. It is with pride that we point to this class and say it is the largest Junior class in the history of the College, composed not only of young men and young woiuen from various parts of our own state, but throughout the United States. We are large in number, and we have no fear of what the future will hold in store for us; only wait until w e get a swing at a degree next year. Things so important and so many in number have been done by our members tha t neither by boasting could I exalt their deeds, nor could I within this space tell the whole truth, but I will say this, out of our class we find enrolled poets, priests, prophets, orators, scientists, and philoso- phers. Let me start off my story with Chief Settle, our President, the man who caused V. M. L and V. Va. to go down to defeat in baseball, and also helped to put safely aw-ay the cup last spring. Just the way he looks when crossing the campus is the attitude he assumes when there are three men on base and he strikes out the next three men that face him. Next, we turn to Joe Garber. Just ask Coach Dobson of Richmond College what he thinks of him on the gridiron. He is one that has never lost that old pep, regardless of how the game runs. Now we turn to Turkey Moorman, representing us in the Intercollegiate Triangular debate. This opportunity should not pass without mentioning the IMarys. If Dr. Geiger wants to get curled properly let him ask Miss Brown something in Psycholog} ' ; the same holds true for Miss Kennedy in Physics and Mathematics. I might go on and fill volumes with the deeds of the mighty and valiant sons and daughters of this class. I might relate to you how we have put physics, philosophy, and mathematics on a sound basis, but I fear space will not permit. Now dear readers, there is one more thing I will say even if the Editor-in- Chief does get angry at the length of my rambling: we have estaljlished a record as calicoists. When you see one of our members put on that bow tie with the orange dots in it that has caused so luany to think it was the sun rising, you may know he is Fraushack bound. Historian. 63 COLONIAL ECHO- I920 When Duty Whispers Low, Thou Must He wanted to study his Latin and Greek, But a skirt fluttered up the street, So he joyfully chucked his books away And followed with flying feet.

The further back it looks, the dearer are the recollections it brings to the minds of those who helped to make it. It is with this in view that the Sophomore Class llistory is written. It is not intended to be a history of each individual member, but of the class as a whole, as if it were a closely connected family. Let us look back to our Freshman year. We must admit that on our first arrival in Williamsburg we were confident that we should take the College by storm and capture A ' s and B ' s at our ease. It was not until we had attended lectures several times that we reluctantly watched our assurance fade away. But after recuperating we entered again into the fray with added vim and en- ■ergy which carried us through the session with honors. At the beginning of this session we entered with that grim determination that means certain success. Very few, if any, sophomores have been listed as ■delinquents, so well have their duties been performed. Of course we do not mean to classify ourselves as curlers, although several of our members wear such an appellation. Besides doing full justice to our academic work, we have taken important parts in all of the student activities. In athletics we have been well represented. In that great game, football, several of our members did honor to us by winning places on the first and second teams. The basketball teams were fortunate in having sophomores to hold important positions with such efficiency. Although at the time of this writing the baseball season has not yet ' arrived, we feel positive that some of our number will make good showings. In literary fields our representatives have done most excellent work. Executive positions in the three literary societies are held by sophs. Our debators and orators have won fame by exhibiting their talents. What more can be expected of a class? The Sophomore Class is undoubtedlv worthy of the honor of its position. We hope that next year may bring even greater and richer success to us. Historian. 68 69 r. ■r. ■X. w 70 COLONIAL ECHO- 1920 Class 1923 Motto: Esse cuiani xidere. Flower: Violet.

The tolling of the Chapel bell soon caused them to forget the rousing cry of the bugle, the shrill whistle of the Boatswain ' s pipe, and the murmuring of the wind through the pipes. Each entered the melting-pot of our Alma Mater and emerged — a Freshman. The men and women of the class of ' 23, the largest class since the founding of the College, have the happy faculty of appearing in all places where fame is to be won and where glory is to be attained. In every college activity some dues presence has been very much in evidence. There are students, athletes, orators, debators, and musicians among its members. Their influence has been great and far-reaching. When the mid-year examinations ended the first term, this class shared in the honors that were won. The burners of the midnight oil came into their own, and many Freshmen were among them. Many Freshmen spent the afternoons of their first ten weeks on Cary Field. When Thanksgiving Day closed the football season. White, Hall, Cooke, Lowe, and Davies had won their monograms. In basketball, the work of Young speaks for itself. You will have to go outside of the Virginia Inter-Collegiate Athletic Association to find a better stationary guard. In the national sport, too, there are dues who are ambitious enough to hope for berths in the regular line-up. The women have also won honor in athletics. Eifert led all of the women in the fall Tennis Tournament. The dues repeatedly thrashed the Sophs in hockev. McMurran, Green, Berger and Davis represented the College in basketball. Whenever there is anything that concerns the College going on, there you are sure to find dues. In numbers, it is the largest of the two hundred and twenty-six classes that have claimed William and Mary as their Alma Mater. In scholarship, the standard of our College has not suffered by this class. We are proud of our athletics. (Jur interest in all college activities is marked. The achievements of the individuals of the class have been many. Theirs have been records of which we are proud. But these are not our greatest pride. They are but manifestations of the real spirit that is existent with every man and woman of the class of ' 23. The love of our class is great; the love and reverence for our Alma Mater is first and perpetual. HlSTORI. N. 73 COLONIAL - I920 Campus Buttercups Ah, buttercups on the camp ' .is.

Ah, buttercups on the campus, I thought to sing you a song: But a cajoling maid in the pathzivy Hath wrought you a grievous wrong: The gleam from yo-ur petals hath faded, Your tinsel is tzi ' isted and old: Her eyes have robbed you of brightness.

Literary Societies IE many strange surroundings which face every young man entering college are naturally somewhat puzzling at first. There are forces and influences at work with which no college man can afiford not to sympathize, and in which a student must participate if he is to receive the most good to be gained at the institution. Many students spend four years in college without being able to conceive of the numerous advantages and opportunities that are at their disposal. It is my purpose to deal with, in this article, only one of the numerous college activities — The Literary Societies. I do not intend to give a lengthly review of the literary society work during the past year, reserving most of my space for discussing some of the opportunities and advantages it affords. Their accomplishments during the current year are sufficiently known. The work on the whole is to be commended. A number of students have shown a keen interest and remarkable ability in their work. We have an inter-collegiate debate scheduled with Richmond College and numerous other activities under contemplation. It is a deplorable fact, however, that the membership of both the societies is not as large as it should be. This is doubtless due, in part, to the numerous other activities which detract the students ' attention from literary society work. Possibly one of the principle reasons for the lack of interest which is manifested in the literary society halls is due to the fact that the amount of credit that one receives for work accomplished is not in proportion to the amount of credit he is accorded when he attains an honored position in some of the other activities. For the purpose of illustration, let ' s take the man who is an all-around athlete. By making use of an unlimited amount of physical energy he becomes the idol of the student body. On the other hand, the man who, by making use of his mental powers, wins a victory for his college in debate or oratory is scarcely known beyond the literary society halls. He has accomplished a fete equally as great, and until we accord him an equivalent amount of praise, we cannot hope for the attainment of wonders in this field. One of our recent speakers at vesper services remarked : If I had a son at college, the highest honor that I would have him attain, next to being initiated into Phi Beta Kappa, would be a high standing in a literary society. When the college community accepts this point of view we shall have our society halls filled to their capacity. 89. Now let us pass on to some of the advantages obtained from literar} ' society work. One of the first things that it does is to drive that sadness of tone out of the inexperienced student. Most new men, in an efYort to be serious, become so sad that if we were to judge from their tone we would believe that some great calamity was about to overtake us. The thing that they need is to get a little of that crepe out of their throats which they can do with proper training. A cheerful young fellow, having heard a speech by a new man in literary society work, remarked afterwards that he expected him to close by saying: This speech will be concluded at 2:00 P. M. in the cemetery. That type of fellow needs sufficient training within a society hall to cause him to get a little of that bottled lightning effect which is so characteristic of the American people. Again, many of us use a style that is stilted, artificial, and bombastic. These are not the essential qualities of an efliective speaker. I have also seen some new men that one would believe had mapped out all of his gestures and then wrote his speech to fit the gestures. The display that one makes of his gestures belongs to the distinguishing marks of a new man. Another is his unsteadiness of poise which forces him to seek support by leaning on the nearest object. Eloquence is not to be attained in this way, but you can make an eloquent orator out of a man of this type. Success in this field depends on cultivating unaffected naturalness and the power to express one ' s self in vigorous and forceful language. Be natural, therefore, if you wish to make progress in the direction of perfection. I am not the first to say it, but this is an age of public speaking, and America, on account of its democratic ideas, is as much, if not more than any other country, a land where the public speaker has a large amount of influence in every walk of life. Men may ridicule the popular orator and hold up the political speaker to scorn, but both are a power on the land. The living speech of the orator has more direct influence in controlling the masses of peojile than any other means of communication. The art of expression speech is only attained by those who apply themselves diligently and with a determination to overcome all impeding difficulties. We are told that Demosthenes, by declaiming against the roaring sea waves with pebbles under his tongue, overcame a habit of lisping and developed a weak into a strong voice. What shall we do? Are we going to be baffled by the few difficulties that hinder us? I would urge that one learn all possible from every speaker about the art of speaking. Be yourself in public speaking as in all other things. Imitate no man as your ideal but be the creator of your own ideal. The literary society affords a place for this which no one can afford to miss. 90 rifTlpEBATEr IW.H. HASKINS lH . .

From this humble beginning has grown the widely-known honor society, having upon its rolls some of the most distinguished men in America. The mother chapter ' s first period of existence was brief. In 1781, the scene of war shifted to the Virginia peninsula and when the college closed its doors, the few members gave up their archives and minutes into ' the hands of the college steward. The Society slumbered until 1849 ; the papers disappeared, but finally fell into the possession of the Virginia Historical Society which restored them to Alpha in 1893. In this same year. Col. William Lamb revived the Society : the faculty were initiated ; and a new era of prosperity began. Chapters had been estab- lished in the leading Northern colleges where they throve from the first, and did much to elevate the fraternity to its present high rank. For its size (there are about two hundred names on the rolls). Alpha of Virginia, is one of the largest, strongest chapters, numbering among its members the most distinguished scholars and litterateurs of Virginia. At William and Mary there are two classes of members ; men distinguished in letters and science whom the College wishes to honor ; and former students who have gone out into life and shown promise in literary or scientific paths. Any student on the rolls has it within his power to wear the key and win the honor that is so highly esteemed among educated and cultivated men of this land. Phi Beta Kappa is not a secret fraternity, competing with other fratei ' nities, but a brotherhood of scholars. 96 4 ■ ■ :-.T gv ' - W)K.yif 4:., 11.. . ■.;, , -4r M  .fttf Jli— ,t,«,., ;t. WS .

' s have never experienced before, or certainly in the same light against which they have had to struggle this session, we can at least look on our Y work and the organization itself with pride and reflect on its inspiration as advantageous.

M. service students. but in spite of hindrances, the imperfections and incompleteness of the local organizations, it has accomplished good. That like any institution that means well, performing its tasks cheerfully, seeking to help and to serve all with whom it comes in contact, and desirous that should be many and its field be large, possess- ing the altruistic and sincere spirit the influence will undoubtedly be felt. The object of the Y. M. C. A. and desire of its leaders is to promote a good fellowship among the students, to create and maintain a Christian spirit through- out the campus, to bring student and student, faculty and student in closer touch with each other, to make the school more home-like and to exercise a spiritual and moral influence in general. The Y gave its annual reception at the opening of the school year. The reception was held in the College library. It was a very joyous and beneficial occasion. One of the important features is the Y room of the second floor of the Gym which is used as a recreation center. This contains a pool-table, victrola. reading material, games of various kinds, etc. The twice-a-week movies , Monday and Thursday night? chapel, have proved ' veil worthwhile and seem to be appreciated. siven in the The Thursday Chajjel services conducted mider the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. by some student or men ber of the faculty have lieen exceeding ii spiving and hel]iful. One of the great opportunities of the students has been to attend the vesper se;-vices. In these services, great moral, spiritual and educational lessons have been outlined and presented in the addresses delivered by such able speakers as Douglas Freeman, Wyndham Meredith, and Hon. R. M. Hughes. 140 COLONIAL ECHO- 1920 Wc state with .threat |)k ' asiirc that our Y. M. C. A. and College was well reiireseiited at the Student Vohmteer Convention held at Des Moines, Iowa, hv such a eomiH-tent dele, , ' ation as Prof. J. R. Geiijer, Messrs. A. W. Johnson and K. Burden. Their reuorts were, to say the least, very upliftinjj and interestinsj. We feel that the knowledge gained at this convention is being keenly felt through their work in the org;mization. We also expect to have a full delegation at the State cimxentions which will siicm he held in Richmond and Lynchburg. Let us give due credit of our success to the several visits, much corre- s])ondence and great interest taken h Mr. J. W. (lainfort. State Secretary. Thanks to Mr. (iainfort. Probably and most likely one of the greatest features and most helpful branches of the V work this session are the Bible study course. We have a well crganized system in this course. Weekly classes are held throughout the dormitories and fraternity houses. The leaders of the groups meet in a norma! class conducted by Prof. Bennett, in which the lessons are outlined and discussed, before the leaders meet their respective classes. Great harmonv and co-ojjeration have existed between the students and facult -. without which the efforts of the Y. M. C. A. would have counted for nothing. The interest, co-operation and help from the faculty is distinctly felt and much appreciated. Taking the advice of the State Board next year ' s cabinet was elected early. The selection of these men was a matter of great consideration and careful choice. I have no doubt but that their work will be of the highest type and under their leadership we predict and hope great efficiency will be reached. 141 COLONIAL ECHO- I920 Student Council W. H.

It is the outgrowth of ideas and suggestions broached by members of the A.E.F. at a dinner in Paris. As a national organi- zation of men and women who served in the military and naval forces of the United States during the Great War. its history is only just begun, btit it has already proved itself a power to be reckoned with. That it has great potential possibilities and can wield a mighty influence in America, and therefore in world politics and policy of all kinds can not be doubted by any student of present-day conditions. The great question which the world asks is. Will this power and influence be for good or evil, for selfish ends or patriotic service? The answer of the American Tegion is found in the record of its num- bers in the v ' ar and as citizens since the armistice as well a,s in the preamble to the Constitution adopted by the first National Convention on November 12, 1919, which reads ; For God and Country we associate ourselves together for the following purposes : To uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America; to maintain law and order ; to foster and perpetuate a one hundred per cent. Americanism; to preserve the memories and incidents of our association in the Great War; to inculcate a sense of individual obligation to the community, state and nation ; to combat the autocracy of both the classes and the masses ; to make right the master of might ; to promote peace and good will on earth ; to safeguard and transmit to posterity the principles of justice, freedom and democracy to consecrate and sanctify our coraradship by our devotion to mutual helpfulness. With these ends in view and led by the calm, competent, men of America, the Legion ' s influence cannot fail to be wholesome or its power directed toward the attainment of the highest ideals of our civilization. The local organization of the American Legion in the College, now known as William and Mary Post No. 90, was unofficially organized through the interest and help of the Williamsburg Post No. 39, by Channing Hall, the commander of the latter Post. A meeting of students who had been in service applied for a charter and sent Raymond Sisson, a veteran of the 80th Division, to the first State convention of the ninety-three posts in Virginia. The State Convention, organized the Virginia Department of the Legion which on October 13, 1919, granted a charter to William and Mary Post No. 90. 146 COLONIAL ECHO- I920 I ' ersuant to this charter and the national constitution the local college post was organized officially on October i6, 1919. Raymond Sisson was elected the first commander and the official history began. In the six months since its organization the local post has had several pleasant and helpful functions for its members and the public, bringing speakers of note on such days as November 11 and February 22 to foster and keep alive the ideals for which our anniversaries stand. The organization has been perfected and has met problems and questions, not always dealing with them in the wisest way perhaps, but at least in the best way its limited experience could suggest. Holding to the paramount principles of justice and fair dealing at all times, may William and Marv Post No. 90 of the American Legion weather safely all her storms, profit by her mistakes and be a power for good to the College and the community now and in all the years to come. fA- - 147 COLONIAL ECHO- 1920 Our Campus strolled beneath the shady elms, One balmy spring-time day, And breathed the fragrance of the fioivers That bloom in merry May. The modest Utile violet And dandelion zvere there. And golden, shining buttercups Were scattered cvery ' Lvherc. The snowy avfcj that floated down. From massive cottomvood trees, And scurried o ' er the wavy grass With every baUny breeze. Drifted along the pebbly zvalk Like snow so pure and zvhite. And by the children in their play Again zvere put to flight. The live oak at the College gate, Stood pointing as of yore. With outstretched arm and stately niein, To his maternal shore. Lord Botetourt stood silent there, Majestic, grand, and tall. To guard the dear old College, With its ivy-covered wall. In the foliage overhead. And among the lilac leaves, 1 heard the bluebird and the wren And martin under the eaves. Thus strolling neath the stately trees. The noblest thoughts arise. And carry my ambitions high Beyond the azure skies. 148 ' teat jU]tlflM!l-1 - H fn jfL 149 COLONIAL ECHO- 1920 Athletic Council R. W. Copeland President A. H. Goslee Vice-Presidcni W. E.

Though the Indians did not win championships in football or basketball, their fighting spirit, sportsmanship, and a determination to give William and Mary a place in the athletic sun, are potent to observers as presaging a new era. The athletic awakening has not been confined to any one branch of sport ; rather, the three main sports, football, basketball, and baseball, have received a profound boost. Every indication is that a genuine revival is taking place here. The ability displayed this season paves the way for a highly successful year in 1920-21. The football material was gratifying to the coach ; the closeness of the scores tells its own story of William and Mary ' s hard fight. The Indians won only two out of six championship games, but they took the scalp of the Richmond College Spiders on Cary Field for the first time here in eight years. Everyone drank deep of this cup of nectar. Despite the presence of White, the Speed boy, the backfield lacked the punch displayed by opponents. It was on the de- fensive that the Orange and Black gridironists played their best game. The championship scores follow : William and Mary 7 William and Mary 3 William and Mary 3 William and Mary , . . William and Mary 6 William and Mary 6 Richmond College Randolph-Macon College Hampden-Sidney College 7 Richmond College 17 Randolph-Macon College 7 Hampden-Sidney College 7 In the exhibition contest with Richmond College in Richmond on Thanks- giving Day the Indians lost a 21-0 score. A large crowd witnessed the game Turkey Day. i68 COLONIAL y ' oj, ECHO- 1920 Injuries slowed up Coach Jimmy Driver ' s regulars after we had won our llrst two games. isions of a championship loomed on the horizon. With Ken- neth Close as cai)lain and guud material in college, the Indians will make an(jtlier clTort to ensnare a gridiron championship this fall, . tlention will dje centered in football, since ' illiam and Alary has never won a football cham]3ionship. Basketball proved a repetition of the football season, in that an equal number of victories was concerned. Captain C. Pierce ' s stalwarts lifted their banners on high in two out of six games. Of the three contests staged in the college gymnasium, the affair with Richmond College provided thrills galore. Two extra periods were required before the visitors secured a 41-38 victory. No more exciting game has been seen in ' illiamsburg in the memory of the city ' s oldest inhabitant. The championship scores follow: William and Mary 38 William and Mary 22 William and Mary 16 William and Mary 33 William and Mary 38 William and Mary 14 Total, lol ; opponents ' score, 201. Randolpli-Macon College 50 Richmond College 20 Hampden-Sidney College 24 Hampden-Sidney College 24 Richmond College 41 Randolph Macon College 42 Since the spirit in which athletic competition is conducted is of greater value in character building than the number of games won or lost, undergrad- uates and alumni feel proud of the year ' s work. The determination and clean playing of the Indians won the praise of lovers of college athletics. 169 COLONIAL - 1920 The Race for Fame upon the road of life a shining light Gleamed brightly, urging me upon my way. Nor faded ever from my eager sight. But shone tipon my pathway night and day. A golden crown it seemed beset zmth gems; I longed to gain and place it on my head. The fairest, richest of all diadems Was this to which my footsteps ever led. Upon my path oft lay a barbed thorn. Which pierced my feet and left a crimson stain. Yet on I pressed, onward, forever on, Forgetting sorroiv, heedless of all pain. Beside the path weary travelers lay. No longer to endure the strife; They cried for help in vain, I could not stay. Lest I should lose the tr ' mmph of my life. And priceless jezvels shone about tny feet, Yet dared I not to claim one for my own. Lest someone, pressing me with footsteps fleet. Might win the crozm and gain the priceless throne. I won the crown, the golden crown of fame. But as I placed it proudly on my head I felt the sting of pain and saw ivith shame That from the hidden thorns my forehead bled. With angry brow I cast the croivn azvay And turned to -help the weary, footsore men; Too late! Too late! I heard a traveler say, Another hand has sent them on again. 170 171 J Monogram Club OFFICERS Walter E. Garber r. . .President Julian A. Brooks Vice-President L.
