D. is being made conspicuous at Cornell by advance in many ways. Among his con- tributions to the development of the college may be mentioned the thought and energy which he has devoted to the improvement of the finances of the institution. ln addition to establishing valuable connections for Cornell in the East, he recently secured the contri- bution hy the Rockefeller Board of rl4100,000 additional endowment for Cornell on condition that the constituency of the College raise an additional amount. Ile has introduced a more thorough system of accounting and office management, together with the remodeling of the college offices upon new and approved plans. Under his leadership the new heating plant, so long an uneonsummated hope, has come into being and is at this writing working bravely. President Flint has done much for the scholarship of the school by his own example off scholarly industry, his unwavering insistence upon the highest standards of scholarship, and his introduction of the system of majors in the curriculum system with the elimina- tion ol? the degree leading to Bachelor of Science and the granting of a single degree, that of Bachelor of Arts. 1 The standards of scholar- ship at Cornell have never been so high as now, and never has there been so many alumni studying or preparing to study in Eastern universities. President Flint 's own scholarship, his interest in modern problems, and his unusual gift as a public speaker have made him a line representative of the college before educational bodies both in this state and in the East. Then the personal qualities of the man,-his humor, his geniality, his sincerity, his strong sane religious enthusiasm are making a deep impression upon the life of the college and rendering the adminis- tration of Charles Wesley Flint D. D. notable in the annals of Cor- nell College. 19ld- I The Royal Purple WILIJIAM HARMON NORTON, A. B., A. M., LL. D., Alumni Professor of Geology. VVILLIAM STAHL EBERSOLE, A. B., A. M., Litt.

However, such was the unusual brillianey, even vividness of the class of 1918 that even rain could not subdue it and the Freshies made their debut in Mt. Vernon in an auspicious way. They had no class banquet in their freshman year. Petty politics as evinced by their first election of officers showed that the class was in a. too superheated condition to partake of food from the same board. They were also too wise to buy tickets to tug-o-war, altho some of them were nearly persuaded by the rosy speeches of the upperclassmen. And they easily pulled the cocky Sophomores thru the stagnant aqua. It was during their infancy that the custom of scrubbing and Dutch- cleaning the pavement of First Avenue in honor of Homecoming first became quite popular with. the Juniors and Seniors-who were interested that the Freshmen perform this very necessary service. The fame of the Freshman Varsity and Football and Bas- ketball teams is sueh that it needs no repetition. Having reached the mature degree of Sophomore the individual members of the class of 1918 were hav- ing a hilarious time running the school. Had it not been for the election of President Flint, some would no doubt be in the position of executive of the school in this their Junior year. So thruout their varied and brief career, the class of 1918 has acted in a very modest way, with yet a very beneficial influence upon the mushroom growths of the other classes. FLORENCE NEFF.

This, added to the fact that the squad was smaller than i11 former years. But those men who were 'tout for Varsity settled down to work with a determination to show the campus crepe-hangers something in the line olf toothall. Things hrightened somewhat upon the delayed return to scholas- tic pastures ol? Etter, dependable punter and passer who had W011 his spurs i11 the Coe game of the preceding year. But the first game, that with Des Moines College, on September 30, which ended with a, score of 18-0, was disappointing to l'ootba1.l dopesters who had set their hearts upon a mueh larger score. The line especially proved weak and 'thc hacks insisted upon tumbling easy punts and passes. Next week saw Sherm a11d Van Buren riding rough-shod over the feelings of certain of the hulkier members ol? the squad who were possessed of too great a fondness for the lilfe ol' sloth and ease.

The first game in the drive for state conference honors, that with l. S. T. C. was a substitute for the gamelwith Knox, which had been cancelled. The school marms fell easy victims to the 110W rapidly improving team by the score of 34-0. lt was in this game that Durham litter got away with his return of a punt for a touchdown, which feat Etter has since succeeded in making classic. Simpson, altho they had been playing in hard luck in the early season games, seemed fondly optimistic of staying the Purple and White in their advance to- ward State Conference honors. But October 28 saw them fall under the wheels of the Juggernaut to the ery ol? 27-0. Only once were they dangerous, when they marehed Graves down the field, only to lose a touchdown over their goal by a fatal fumble. 1 T The next score, that of 29-13 against Highland Park on November 3, came as a special solaee to the hearts of both student body and team. For they held a little grudge against Nike Highland 's ringers for the 0-0 score of the preceding year. The only thing to be regretted about this game is the 13 points of High- land 's, which is really more than they deserved. After the game with Ilighland Park it had been planned to take 0I1Ail.,01111 Col- lege for a little praetiee game. 'Hut much to our surprise, the Quakers, buttressed with oodles of bone and beet, battled fiercely to respectably looking defeat of 28-0 on November ll. And now, dear reader, the plot thickens. No doubt you are aware of the exist- ence up-river olf an assemblage of Presbyterian youth and maidens of pronounced vocal propensities. 'Well, briefly, the eve11ts of November 17, enacted on Ash Park gridiron, Mt. 'Vernon, Qlowa, have effectually silenced the brazen tongues 'ufhieh were wont in these latter years to wag so blatantly.

But of the next game, my pen simply declines to write. With the conference t eliampionship in sight, Cornell battered by their Coe field-day, and on a bad day, lost to Grinnell, 19-0, and thereby lost the conference championship. So the season, not a had season, ended with Cornell in second place. We olfer no alibisg our chargin is too deep for words. But in eonelusion we can only say, Second berth this year-yes.

His fight and his fiery Swiss temper, finally earned for him the eaptaincy of the Varsity. Next year we will miss your freckled and blushing face, Henry, and we'll have to look far, far beyond Reinbeck to find your better. Here 's to you, Hank. XVARREN E. I-IAnTxvEI.L, '18 Quarterback Stub is to the Cornell team what gasoline is to the Ford-he keeps her running. The shiftiest quarter Cornell has seen since the days of Pony West, it was only proper that Stub should be chosen to lead the team of 1917 to a conference championship. And you can do'e1' Stub, if only you keep the flunk man scared off. Here 's luck to you. JOSEPH TRACY BIEADE, '.lS Left Guard One of the many products of Redfield is this Irishman, who hns lll0l'0 of the undomesticated fight than is possessed by al- most any other two men in Cornell. If the Redpath open- air treatment doesn't disqualify him, some Iowa Conference guard is going to have his mits full next fall. Hurry back, 'l'1':ncy. 1918 The Royal Purple . Ros Hownan, '17 Right Guard The 1916 season was Roe 's last on the gridiron and proved to be his best. Roe is big, shifty and fast, solving the plays of the opposition readily and breaking them up before they are under way. lt'll take some man to fill your shoes, Roe, as will it also to fill your position. But we 're thanking you that SOIIIG big stiifs remember Cornell with more respect because of hav- ing played opposite you. So long, Roe. CLIFFORD Box'r.AN, '17 Fullback CMH is one of those steady and quiet football players, whom his mates always feel is always there in the playg and his op- ponents canit figure out where he 's going to hit. Playing his last year of football. Cliff also played his best altho playing a new position. Here 's one more hole on the 1917 team, Stubby, and you ill have to look close to find a man who can fill it with the satisfaction that Cliff did. ARTHUR EYESTONE, '17 Center and Guard Art had it rather tough this year since he was competing with the captain for his job. With this in mind it is very creditable that he made the Varsity. And he played the same steady defensive game that he played last year. On offense Art is light, but y0u'd never guess it when he hits you. Another landmark gone! 1918 The Royal Purple COTTON ETTER, 18 Half back That Cornoll's game this year was so versatile is due largely to Cot and his accurate forward pass. We optimistically be- lieve that Cot can hurl that old oval and hit a dime placed anywhere on Ash Park gridiron. Cot is equally consistent at punting and plunging the line. And say, Cot, old boy, we'lI :always love you for the way you hit some of those Cooites on November 17th, lust. We're going to watch for you next year Cot! A Anno SANDERSON, 19 Left Tackle Playing his first year of Varsity football, Sandy played a whale of a game. Shifty on his feet, powerful and fearless, he tackled many a man for a susbtantial loss. And Sandy is reliable every minute. We like the way you smear an inter- ference, Sandy, and we 'll swear by you for next year. CARL HAYMOND, '18 Right Tackle Dutch played his first full year of Varsity football this year, and judging from the way he filled the position, Cornell was in real hard luck when he sprained his ankle the year before and couldn't play. Big, heady and fast, Dutch didn't let many plays net a gain thru his side of the line. On oifeuse he handled his man like one would a child. Wycoif remembers you, Dutch, we'll bet a penny, and he at least respects the Ger- mans. We 're looking for you nc-xt year, Carl old man. - 19-T8 I- - The Royal Purple -1 1 Mumss WALKER, '18 Halfbmfk Ennnetsburg p1'oduced him and Cornell trained him, until new he 's one of the hardest plunging backs in the state. If on ever saw Mm with his head about one foot above the .Y ' ' -1 fl ' 'n the turf behind you can well ground and his feet enum g , believe that Doc is the hardest back to tackle on the Cornell team. And 0 Baby, how you did tear 'em up in that Coe game, Doc boy! We wait with impatience to see you work next year. Knxxi-:rn DAN SKIN, '18 Guard Danny was working fine until he got his sprained ankle. Even then he kept working away, and in spite of his handicap worked well in the remaining games he entered. Danny is big and he fights all the time. If you ever go to a foreign field, Danny, teach the natives football, and then remember that yon're remembe1'ed at Cornell as the most conscientious worker that ever slid into a pair of Cornell moleskins. RALL Gmosnv, '18 Left End We asked Chubby Hughes to fill this for us but he spread it on so thick that we are compelled to forego the egoistic pleasure of seeing it in print. Besides it wasn't half true, and this annual must maintain its reputation for integrity. So, we'll check the bet. 1918 Tile .Rcayczl Plurgnle WMZM. -9- dvi: 1-'H-Mina .-z+r .'.Hs M.-ff'emf.

But the sunny side of this same cloud reveals the Fact that they finished the season and were acknowledged second in the conference, that they defeated Simpson, Penn, Highland Park, and 'Des Moines, and above all that they administered a double licking to Coe, ln addition to all this, as pointed out by the Gornellian, the team amassed an enviable total number of points For the season, a bit more than 29 per game, or 292 For the season,-which is a. creditable record for any team. But the most outstanding and satisfying joy of the season is the double drub- bing given the Hcrack Goe tive. Like 'Balm in Gilead was the satisfaction which the student body, team and alumni experienced at rubbing it into Coe. indeed the experience was so wholly satisfaetory that the team has sworn to make it a. regulaifeustom. The prospects for a winning team For next year are more than rosy. Bowen, the dependable gyuard of this year, will be graduated, it is true, but the remainder olf this year's team without exception will be eligible for the race next year. With this nucleus ol' veterans together with the additions from the l'asli Fresh- man team of this year, the basketball team ot 1918 should make the commend- rble team of this year look like a Sunday School League, and should put the bas- ketball championship of tlie state where it belongs-at Gornell. Anyhow, here's hoping: ' TEAM' Forwards-lloadley, 'Walker, Grigsby Cel, Byerly Center-Kepler Guards--liowen, Sanderson, Lemon SCORES Cornell vs. Iowa, at iowa City, January 9-Iowa 28, Cornell 13.

The fact that such a large squad was 100 unwieldy, added to the very apparent lack of ability on the part of some of the candidates, soon caused Coach Mann to cut the squad down to about twelve men. These twelve men it was who regularly took the druhbing of the Varsity for three long months. But the Freshmen had some games of their own. Mt. Vernon High School with their customary ambition took it upon themselves to trim us poor yearlings, but the Freshmen in a fast game handed them a 21-12 defeat. After Marion High School 's defeat of the Coe Freshmen they decided that these Freshmen teams were pretty soft, and hence wanted to try their champion- ship methods on us. We were willing, but disappointed them in the matter of the score to the tune of 36-8. Then Waterloo High School came along with a string of sealps at their belt, but in a rough and tumble game were humbled 26-11. Then we journeyed over to Marion who had become obsessed with the idea that they could trim us on their own floor, but when the final whistle blew the score stood 32-15 in favor of the Cornell Freshmen. So the season as a whole was very successful, due in a large measure to the systematic coaching of Frank Mann. Next year the Varsity will in all prob- ability be strengthened by the addition of a lot of men who at least will show the old fight in a scrap with the old men for the positions on the Cornell Varsity of 1918.

' The ?BasehaII Seaman uf 1916 True to their heredity of a succession ol' baseball teams which either won the state championship, or finished strong contenders for the bunting, the Cornell baseball team of 1916 finished the season as acknowledged second in the confer- ence, and tied for second i11 the state. Starting with a nucleus of veterans of the caliber of Byerly, Hughes, and Turner, Coach West succeeded in unearthing enough baseball ability in the freshman and sophomore classes, that the rosy hopes of the early season dopesters were very nearly realized by the close of the season. The first game with Penn, April 22, showed that the team was composed of a bunch ol' comers, but had not as yet gained their batting eye. Accordingly it was not until the ninth inning that they got to Synhorst, the big Penn twirler, and batted in a 2-1 vietory. Then on April 27, the team tackled Chicago University, which was on its way down to play Iowa. Byerly was 'Working fine and was supported in professional 1918 l 1 I 1 ffhe Royal Purple style by the rest of the team, the game ending 5-3 in favor of Cornell. The next day Chicago beat lowa at lowa. The following game with Grinnell on April 28 was a wild and erratic contest. Errors as well as fast plays ahounded, with the result that the final score was 12- 7 with Cornell safely 011 the long end of the tally. At Iowa City the next week the team failed to hit the side-arm delivery ol' Deardorf, and as a result lowa won, 3-0. Then Cornell got kicked by the goat. Simpson, with a two-horse team, came romping dovv11 to our peaceful little village the next week, and carried off a pre- sent, which cannot be called a game, by the score of 9-7. Seldom does a team have such an off-day as did Cornell that day, and seldom does a team play so far above their heads as did that of Simpson. But next Saturday the Cornell 'bunch squared themselves somewhat by taking lowa into camp on the Donald Diamond, by the score of 4-1. Although credit for this victory is due in part to the whole team, yet particular credit is due to Byerly and his battery-mate, Chubby Hughes. Briefly, Lee and Chub had them eating out of their hands. May 15 saw the team up in the wild and Arctic regions of Minnesota, scheduled for two games with Carleton at Northfield. After the close of the games, which ended 12-3, and 7-3, in .favor of Cornell, Coach Hunt of Carleton remarked, that Cornell had the best college team he had seen that year. Adding that they could beat any college team in the state. The game with Highland Park which was to have been played the next week at Des Moines was cancelled on account of wet fields. The team therefore went only to Grinnell where they lost a heartbreaking game for Doc Walker 1-0, due to their .failure to connect with the sphere at the right moment. The following week, May 24 and 25, I'Iig.hland Park showed up with their bunch of ringers, and with them we split even in a two-day battle. fln the first, Kinsey, the Central Association twirler, beat us 1-0. ln the second Cornell knocked Reese all over the lot, and trotted away with a 9-5 victory. . On April 3, Cornell had beaten Coe at Mt. Vernon, 5-0. On June 3, they went up to Cedar Rapids and duplicated the performance, except that the score was 6-0. The Coe batsmen simply fawned at the feet of Byerly. They couldn't solve his fast ones and they couldn't solve his slow ones, in fact, Byerly remained a complete enigma for the Coeites, and Cornell hit at will. So the baseball season of 1916, like war brides, had its ups a11d downs. Some- times it seemed that it was chiefiy downs-but then as we look ibaek, we cannot but come to the conclusion that there was lots to be happy over, it was a success- ful season, from one standpoint, if no other-that Byerly fattened his pitching average on the heavy-hitting f??j Dunlap of Coe who covered himself with pers- piration and ridicule. Next year we look for a conference championship team- and we believe under the captaincy of George Turner, we'll get it. 1918 if ,pgfmz ,. la 3 i i 5 x 4 r H W I I , , ,L . X v 1 gf E f L.

Cornell took third, '1'orrancf0 and Briggs winning tho long runs and Manly giving tht- mighty Hoyt tho lmattlo ol' his lito. 1918 The Royal Purple Manly was the whole Cornell team at the State Meet, taking seven points in all, winning the quarter and taking third in the hundred. Smith brought the total to eight. Tl1e Coe meet proved a iitting climax for the successful season. The Meet was doped to 'be clmgc and the one point victory which Coe obtained represented the margin between the teams. With the short relay still to run, Cornell led by four points. T11e fresher Coe runners were too fast for the more wearied Cornellians, winning the race and the meet. But three men were lost by graduation. Captain Manly took away a whole team in himself, while Briggs is regarded as the best two-miler ever at Cornell, and Milholin was a strong high-jumper. But with the greater majority of tl1e old men left as a nucleus and a promising amount of new material, the team of 1917 should be even stronger than the successful Track Team of 1916.

MACLEOD Because of the uneeasing work of Miss MacLeod, the Cornell Department of Physical Training for Women has reached its present state of efficiency. The strong personality possessed by Miss MacLeod has been an ineentiveto every girl enrolled in her department to Work persistently and cheerfully. Perhaps no other influence is stronger and more wholesome than that of this woman who meets every girl in the school in her moments of recreation. Because of this strong and wholesome intiuence every girl enrolled in her department is ready to swear by the name of Mary L. MacLeod. 1918 The Royal Purple ,T I :muah -I 1 iiypi Qlinrnell 7!l?1Humen's Zltbletit Zlssuniatiun Cornell is proud to be included in the 80 per cent of larger colleges in which ath- letic associations exist. The Cornell Women 's Athletic Association came hand in hand with the Woman's League in the Fall of '16. It is a new feature of the Cornell Physical Training Department, and gives it a certain prestige, before unknown. Its success has not been a matter of chance but of hard work,-of hard and unselfish Work,-on the part of Miss MacLeod, who has been the pro- pelling force in carrying this organization to its present goal, and who instills interest and loyalty into every member. This organization which had as its beginning the co-operation of thirty charter members, was baptized with a spirit of enthusiasm, and is an incentive to diligent work to many more. It aims to awaken a wider and more intelligent interest in physical education among the women of Cornell and to mould sentiment in that direction. Fundamentally it is based on definite scholastic requirements, and a prescribed number of honors received from the Women's Department of Physical Training. Members are liable to suspension unless a certain scholastic standing is maintained. Its membership is conferred as a reward for diligent and loyal work. Its program is :-to create a desire for efficient work, to spread its influence in bettering its laws, to improve conditions and maintain a high standard of work, both athletic and scholastic. Valborg Jensen is President and Romaine Guild is Secretary for this year. V. L.

The evening was an assured success from the time that a wee laddie, having, looked Craig up and down, called out Hello, Long Legs. The local opera house with a, seating capacity of 300 was packed to overtiowing with fifty-five. Once during the concert some one made a bad mistake, and a woman in the audience was overheard to remark, The poor boys are bewildered. They are not accus- tomed to singing before such a. large audience. The concert was a laugh from start to finish. Two lassies on the front seat were very much interested in Mabitfs portliness. T The Glee Club trip proper opened with a concert at Killian 's in Cedar Rapids. Killian 's was a. decided success. We could not help but sing-there were so many girls present. liolcs was the center of the tlirting thruout the evening, some- times almost worshipfully. Ol' the Hirt's beauty, the less said the better. Red Hulse bit his spoon in two at the banquet. Following the banquet the store was turned over to the boys and they lounged about luxuriously, listening to an Edison phonograph. Lights were low a11d fancy free. Here the club remained until time to depart. Many thanks to Killian. ln the rain the club boarded the train for lndependence. The train was late and most of the warblers as a result wore 'flNIennen shaves to the concert, at which Harry Milholin and Dick Rainers were present. Concert went fairly well and the numbers appreciated. A wet nasty day greeted us as we started for 'Waterloo It also well-nigh proved a veritable Waterloo for Doc York and Vance were both ill and the crowd was hard to get hold of. Three youngsters in the front seat started all the applause. The club sang in both High Schools and on the return from the last one some of the members indulged in a little joy-ride on the wooden horse belong- ing to a harness maker. The fellows had a good time here. The town of Manly has a large business district. No two stores or houses are together but are sandwiched between each other. Not very appetizing sand- wiches. Some of the boys were late to dinner but all of them were late getting away. Boles refused to behave in this town. He sang thru the quartet numbers with his trousers rolled above his shoe-tops. Some faults were to be discerned in his toilet otherwise. This was the best concert give11 thus far. Snow of three inches during the night. Owatonna concert was fair, but nothing to flap our wings about. The boys had a good time. Two ot them had to run the train down the next morning in order to travel with the Glee Club. Two hours after our artists reached St. Paul, hardly one could be found. They were in pursuit ot mere pleasure. The two days spent here were days of happiness for all. The concerts were goodand the crowds full of pepper. Tuesday morning found the club aboard for Redwood Falls. The jump from 1918 ATIIB leoofal f'ur19le Redwood to Redwood Falls had to be made in automobiles. After a tedious wait some of the men piled into a car and were in the good fortune enough to have -a tire blow out. Several Cornell people live at Redwood Falls, and everyone had a nice time in the town admiring thc wonderful scenery extant thereabouts. Next stop was made in the slumhcring town of Sleepy Eye. Unpatriotic. Some of its so-called citizens would not rise when the Star Spangled- Banner was sung. Only nice part about the town was the post-office where the flag waved and where some of the boys got letters from home. However, the city has some high class entertainers, as some six of the boys wanted to stay over. On the jump to Emmetsburg the club had to change cars at New Ulm. This is a German settlement which flies no American flag except on government build- ings. They have a large new armory at which troops from other towns are placed. After tearing around a bit the trip was resumed. The boys also had the joy of serenading and ricing a brand new married couple. At Emmetsburg everyone had a splendid time. Scotty was presented with flowers. It was here that Sones said, Yes, if it is cooked I'll take some oatmeal. Next morning we passed a pond 011 which were many ducks. Sones remarked thatthe ducks surely must get their feet very wet. After this bit of natural philosophy, he folded his hands in a satisfied air and beamed cheerfully about. After traveling thruout the day we reached Mitchell. On the way a very fiashily faced and dressed girl got aboard. There was an immediate scramble for ringside seats. The boys sang for her, tlirted with her and received a hearty welcome. They continued to eavort about in a very unassumed child-like manner. At Mitchell the largest crowd of the trip was assembled. Shortly after the con- cert we boarded the Pullman for Des Moines, which we reached the next day at two o'clock. Again a dispersal took place. At the concert that night All Des Moines welcomed us with 103 people. They sat at the 'back of the church. The organist would not let Prof. Shaw play the organ for fear he 'd spoil it. Hence they failed to get the complete sacred concert. Happy were all when they mounted the steps of the home-bound train. The trip had proved a success in every way and credit must be given to Craig Arbuckle for the thoroughness with which it had been planned. Tired and sleepy the club returned to Mt. Vernon. The weight of their grips didn 't matter and the distance seemed very short as they splashed along in the rain. , In the rain the club had lefty In the rain they were returning. 1 iii: I , g 1918 8161 .

As a special favor to the citizens of Tipton, however, a concert was given there. A special limited Qvery much soj met the club at Stanwood, whirling like a one-eyed meteor across the boundless prairie to Tip- ton. As the Ingersolls registered the hour of eight, the pink, blue, and yellow dresses made their first harmonic appearance. Everything went well until one of the girls in the gypsy stunt attempted to read the palm of the bald-headed gentleman who sat behind the post. Following: this brief interruption, the pro- gram continued to the end. Then it stopped. The Home Concert came on May first, VVllCl1 once more the girls tripped over the time-worn carpet of the chapel platform. The applause from the balcony and the next issue of the Cornellian proclaimed the concert the most successful in the history of the club. And we all know that the success of the Girls' Glee club this year is due largely to the efficient direetorship of Miss Edna Traxler.

A - At 3:00 P. M., April 2, 1917, the Cornell College orchestra scrambled one by one thru the aperture left above their baggage and into the aisle of the Lisbon-Cedar Rapids Limited. The admiring friends waving their tear-stained kcrchiefs caught a last glimpse of Rosy Howard reposing on the arm of a girl beladeu seat, and Professor Miller wandering aimlessly down the a.isle searching for his ample chaperone. The journey at Cedar Rapids from the interurban to the Illinois Central Station was a dangerous move but was accomplished without accident swing to the efficient training in traffic dodging about the streets of Mt. Vernon. April 2-at Coggon. Supper and breakfast is served up to us at the church in fine style by Willie A. Buell, with the assistance of many fair damsels.

Q. in 1916917 When Our Yearlings arrived on the opening day of the college year and met the fellows with Information badges, they first felt the influence of the Y. M. C. A. The particular work of the Association is to maintain and strengthen the religious side of the men of Cornell. Altho the regular meetings on Thursday night have been broken up by the Freshman Associations meetings, held alter- nately every secend Thursday i11 connection with the Y. lil. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A. the men have gained a great deal thru the influence of the meetings. Some of the specialized work of the Y. M. C. A. this year, has been to organize the Bi-ble study in connection with the Sunday School, getting every man in school enrolled in the Association, and sending gospel teams to neighboring towns over week ends and during Xmas and Spring Vacations. Altho hindered somewhat by unpreventable causes the monthly Vespers have been H11 inspiration to all who attended. The special meetings held by Dad Elliott put new religious vim and life into every branch of the school and especially the religious life of the men. The men of the school contributed H4900 as their share of the 582,300 raised for prison relief in Europe, which showed the true spirit of sacrifice which exists among the men of the school. The Y. M. C. A. entertained the State Gospel Team Training Team Conference this yea1', besides being well represented in other conventions held in other col- leges. The employment Bureau of thc Y. M. C. A. has -been on the job all year, doing a real service to Cornell men in providing work for the students who wanted it and needed it to help them work their way thru school. The dreamof a Y. M. C. A. room is at last being realized, and it is hoped that in a few years the college will eo-operate with the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A. in building an Association building. The Association this year has been put on a firm financial basis and it is hoped that the new cabinet recently elected will- have as successful and enjoy- able a year as the men of? the retiring cabinet have had.

A. seeks to unite the girls of Cornell in the feeling that Jesus Christ is their constant friend and helper. This year the work was started with a. great deal of enthusiasm. A new enrollment, larger than usual was taken and each girl seemed to feel more than ever the purpose of the association and her individual responsibility as a member. To interest the women of Mt. Vernon in our Work, a campaign was carried out for honorary members, which enrollment of honorary members has now reached fifteen. Early in the year a reception was held for the new girls in Bowman Hall parlors, and the old girls sought to make friends with every new member. The Y. W. C. A. has fostered the interest of the girls in the Geneva confer- ences. Last spring the Geneva luncheon given at Mrs. Flint 's was a great suc- cess. Nearly all of the girls in school were present and enjoyed the luncheon, but especially enjoyed the interesting toasts which made the Geneva spirit a thing of real and vital importance at Cornell. As guests of the association, Miss Long, of Chicago Training School and Miss Robinson, of the foreign field visited Cornell. Both, in addition to speaking to the girls at the regular Y. W. C. A. meeting, held individual, conferences with the girls. The Freshman girls have met with us only once every two weeks, the other meetings being held as a joint association of the Freshman Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. Then a fine rest room in the main college building has been furnished under the direction of the social service committee. Here are held all of the cabinet and sub-cabinet meetings. An annual bazaar and candy-sale was held as usual this year and all of the students responded finely. Then the Y. W. C. A. holds a sandwich sale every Thursday at chapel time, at which the students generously choke down their boisterous appetites. The success of these sales, as Well as the success of the other enterprises undertaken by the Y. W. C. A. have shown whatever the Y. W. C. A. turns their hands too, will invariably be a success.

We have aeeomplishecl the former by an occasional open meeting ol? the band at which all students were welcome, and by personal eontaet with our fellow studentsg and the latter by our weekly band meetings. Notwithstanding the handicap of small numbers, and the interference of mili- lary activities during' the last two months, the Band has had a good year.

It injected pep into the student body who swung into line behind the team, which gave Ames the fiercest battle for state honors. It was promptly dubbed the Pep Club, and a constitution was formed and adopted. That Constitution is now in a class with the Magna Charter,- it does not exist in written form. From the position of a club which was formed to select boosters for athletics, the Pep Club has turned its attention to every phase of college life. It more nearly approaches a student council than any other organization which Cornell possesses. The administration has encouraged this branching out, which so far has included everything from chapel attendance to the annual Home-coming. The students who started this organization on its career believed in lucky numbers. The membership is fixed at thirteen. These are elected by the student body from the candidates nominated by the club. Ths candidates are selected in an honest endeavor to free the club from petty politics and the steam roller. Any member of the Pep Club can assure you that membership in it is an educa- tion if considered alone. Money is spent and raised in all ways imaginable- quite often it is spent and not raised. V Take as your slogan- Boost the Pep Club, for they boost Cornell. DON KREGER. 1918 The Royal Purple vu -- R M ,T R i , + be QE Klub 2 1 l , . N . i 4 1 M N OF 11' l1C IC RS LE!-1 ,ISYRRRV .... .....

Only those men of the school who have won their honor C in one of the majorwbranehes of athletics at Cornell are eligible for membership. So the membershipof the club is always exclusive and never becomes too bulky for active service. Next to the Pep Club, the C Club has charge of most of the 'student matters of local promotion and importance to the welfare of the school as a whole. One of the most important of these is the annual Inter-scholastic Track Meet, of which the C Club has had charge for the last six years. Invitations are sent to all the high schools of the surrounding territory, and responses have heretofore always been so general that one of the best inter-scholastic track meets of the state has always resulted. Last year the track meet was better and more oiheient than ever before. The value of this service to Cornell is evinced by the number of track athletes, who are at the same time good students and good fellows, who every fall following this event enroll in Cornell as a result of the 'favorable impression the school makes upon them at this time. Nor does the C Club neglect the cultivation of the social graces and ameni- ties. Each year it holds its official banquet, at which time it entertains the friends of the men themselves. Hence the girls of Cornell have a certain definite and warm interest toward the Club. The banquet this year on March 30th, was the most successful of the long list of C Club banquets, at least from the point of the cuisine-CHank Frei insisted that I use that word.j And so it is that not the least of importance of all the ,organizations of Cornell is the Cornell C Club.

'l'houg,l1 the service asked by the editors sometimes seemed difficult Cskillful ,purveying of photographsb, yet it was always performed eheerfuly and for the most part on time. If there is, therefore, any excellence in this volume of the Royal Purple, we want to divide the praise with the members of our staff. If on the other hand any blemishes or bone heads appear in this edition the editors want all the blame and abuse. So there you areg blame the entire stai if it's goodg blame the edit- ors aloneif it's rotteng but in either event remember that either praise or blame will be forgotten ten years from now.

McCoM1xmN'v 1918 Tfze .RrJyc1l f'urgJ1e Last year, after an investigation of the plans used by other colleges for unit- ing the girls in their activities, a constitution was worked out and adopted by the Cornell girls, and The Woman's League of Cornell came into being. Its purpose is to direct matters of student life pertaining to the women of the college 5-to further a spirit of unity among the women, to increase their sense of responsibility toward one another, and to form an official body for the expression of the opinion of the women in matters of general college interest. In spite off its exceeding newness, certain definite things have been accom- plished by the Wo1nan's League this year. The point system has been set in motion for regulating the number of outside activities each girl may carry. Three parties have helped to realize the unifying purpose of the organization. The first, Pal Day, promises to hold a permanent place among the annual stu- dent events. A St. Patriek's Day stunt party at the gymnasium, and the Girl 's Grex, held i11 connectionwith the vocational conference, and at which not only the college girls, but many high school girls from many parts ot the state were guests, further fulfilled definite social needs. Perhaps the most thoroughly constructive of the league 's activities has been the two-day vocational conference, at which such speakers as Miss Helen M. Bennett, of the Chicago Collegiate Bureau of Occupations, and Judge Mary Bartelimie of the Chicago Juvenile Court, spoke on the subject ol? vocational. opportunities for college women. Witli no precedents to guide it in its first year of existence, the NVoman's League has, nevertheless, already begun to fulfill its purpose among Cornell girls.

Hincites the youth of the college to bloodthirstiness, and is inimieal to the highest and noblest interests oi' the college . So the tug ol' war was unearthed as a mild substitute-also as liurnishing a substitute for a swimming pool. Besides a couple of hundred l'eet ol' hemp rope figures up very little in the year's Vlllllllllg 0Xpl'1lHl S. Saturday, October l4, ol' last fall lound the members ol? the Freshman and Sophomore classes whom their brothers thought most in need of a refreshing bath upon the banks ol' that classic body ol' water, known to tame as Abbey Creek and to l'ussers as the nesting, ground of mosquitoes, and other pestil7erons insects . Besides the members ol' the respective classes there was also gathered together a goodly company ol' those possessed of a love ol? aquatic sports. The 'field ol? Farmer Bryant, supposedly a goodly soul, was invaded, and all went merry as a marriage hell-until the appearance of the person of Nr. Bryant himself. who very forcibly made know11 to the assembled multitude that they'd have to beat it from oit n his ground . Strange to say, the multitude quietly and sweetly obeyed. The field ol: Mr. Stockwell was next invaded and the guests arranged themselves about the scene ol' the pull with hilarity and abandon. No irate farmer appeared to clear his sacred acres ol' their noisome pestileuee, so the Master ol' Ceremonies began proceedings by requesting all members of teams who had not yet said their prayers to do so--and the battle started. The Middleweight teams, it,was, who had the first opportunity to win tame and honor for their classes by show of manly strength and endurance. Grouped gracel'ully about the strands ot' the hempen rope, the young warriors awaited the signal olf the Master ol' Ceremonies. The word came, they threw themselves back on their haunches Cfiguratively speakingj the rope drew taunt, and the battle was on. Straining sinews, etc. are very awkward things to possess for any considerable length of time, so finally the Sophs capitulatcd and gracefully entered the aqua in long, aesthetic dives. And then after a briel' struggle 011 the opposite bank, their tired and exhausted bodies appeared above the turf and the Froshies had won the first pull. The second pull, between the lightwcights of both classes, was a complete re-enactment of the middleweiglit tragedy, except that the Froshies it was who did thc high diving acts. Score new stood love all , with the heavyweights yet to pull. But here a dilemma arose. For lo, the Sophs were without a heavyweight team. I-Iow distressingg how thoughtless, the guests along the bank fairly wept for more plunges, so a pickup team was found. Positions were taken, the rope tightened,-thc Sophs went thru, but refused to come out. Se the Master of Ceremonies called it a draw and everybody eame home, tired but happy-yessur, that's it Professor, tired but happy. 1918 e Raya!

It is related that a student Qwhose name need not be mentionedh asked his mark of Miss Riley ol? the Latin llepartment, Cwhose name must be mentioned as the story is built around it.J Upon being told that he received a B, the student expressed sorrow at not being able to take further work under Miss Riley. The professor replied,-HWell, you know a change of masters is good ,For one. Whereupon they both laughed heartily. Not to be outdone by his mentor in this clash of wits, the student eudgeled his brain for an apt retort. ln a few minutes he came back hurriedly saying,- 1 guess you're right. There probably is some danger of my idea of Latin becoming a hit Riley. ' lt is said that the l'rol'cssor, not being prepared with an adequate reply, lowered the student's grade to a O. NOTE OF EXPLANATION-As our more discerning readers may have per- ceived, the joke consists in a play upon the words Riley and roily Qtrom the old French, meaning muddy.

'I'RATNlVIR COACH-We have nothing hut praise lfor the man with temerity enough to assume the responsibility, il? not to say the humiliation of l'a,ttening into shape a squad of this collective calibre. The position oi? coach to this herd of raw beef demands any amount ol' patience, not to say a sense ol? the ridiculous, which can he developed only in seerot chastening of soul.

The doctor cannot be complimented too highly for his judgment of football by-products, and his zealous devotion and un-tiring efforts to make an example of them. Congratulations Doctor, you'11 make good yet. 4 Tha'sall Chester, drive on. THE ENDS-Old Grace Williams deserves his position by reason of his extraordinary qualifications. Both by nature and habit Duke is the end man on everything, whether it be at the dinner table, grades or otherwise. Wlieii the trump of Gabriel blows we may well believe that Bro. Williarns will be the last saint to step jauntily upon the celestial cloud and claim his brace of wings. He received a Chas. Horse in the beginning of his career among the chalk-lines, probably caused by eating five meals and sleeping 17 hours a day in his room at the Wand house. He has ridden this alibi, however, for a full page of firesicle- touchdowns since then and has almost succeeded in convincing himself that he is . .,.. .1 ' X NX in ,ln RORDORF, GUARD BEARSE, GUARE 1918 The Royal Purple ar candidate for the All-American. At the other e11d we place Vernon Shippee as the logical man for thc position. Also worthy of mention is Leslie Welch who has shown his proficiency in starring in the end of many a perf-hic day. Played on the other end of the tecter, Vernon and Leslie will just about balance with Duke consistently. THE 'llACKL1QS-COttlHg,ll21lI1 is on this team because he asked to be. He Fairly revels in publicity and We could not find the heart to resist his untiring efforts in that direction. The way he hits the first note in Glee Club practice is delightful-not. His attack is pert-hic. He and Mr. Ellinwood, by the natural compatibility of their temperaments should work together splendidly. At this juncture it might be mentioned that Mr. Ellinwood has no qualifications for the position but was put there simply to satisfy his infinite yearning for athletic honor,-and as furnishing a fitting running mate for Mr. Cottingham. THE GUARDS- 'l'he scales now stand at balance. On the one hand we have J. 'Wilbur liearseg on the other Rordorf. Bearse is back from another suc- -f .1 , . .. ly , ' Il ,VI . A I Q.. A . ' x .. J mf ' ' .fi M.um1'r, 1-r,u.mmcK or-ms. nnooxs, rUr.r.1sAcK cfessful season as gospel-slinger. His chief qualification is his remarkable ability 10 he always in the same place. Besides he holds the best prayer of any man on the team. We choose Rordorf as his running mate because Oscar knows all the words ,-besides their football usage, which we fear Mr. Bearse does not. liordort' is the only man who stands a chance of losing his position next year. In fact he is so deficient in the form required for this team that he is apt to be ejected in favor of Harry Board, who also knows the words. CENTER-Experts and fans all stand agreed on the choice for this posi- tion. The Rev. Dr. Hoiman stands head and shoulders Civory and alll above W- M 1918 - -Q- The Royal Purple Y The rest of the candidates for this position. He stands a winning chance of win- ning his B for the 11cxt ten years or so. He should be in the running three years from now if the college doesn't lease the gridiron to Miss Madison for flower beds. As a possible second choice for this position we would suggest Shcrm Finger. if some of the boys were not under the necessity of cajoling him out ofa few German credits. ' QUARTER--Here lies the brains of the machine. The man who occupies this pivotal berth must possess both mental acumen and athletic erudition. Curtiss is the logical man for the position. Ile has lots of brainsg he never uses them. Ile is the most reliable jumbler and pre7cminent crahber of the bunch. Is strong on the breeze stui. Strongly im'ia.ted, and the sails of his halfbaeks 'nnreefed and well up, he should he able when in his best form to windjam his team against any verbal opposition. Bill also knows the words. THE HALFBACKS-Mabbit is a fair contender for this position. Ile has developed an immense capacity for taking punishment, while taking the open-air treatment with the Ellison-White people. If the Hunk-killer doesn't rap him on the head and he gets back safe from the geysers and things, we expect to sec him an All-American bone for the coming season. Again we have left over our friend Craig Arbuckle. He is the cream of the lot, bar none. On a smashing end run, he can dig up more turf than a sewer gang, and is shifty on his feet, just like an ice wagon in a swamp. He is indispensable to the success of the team. FULLBACK-Chas. Brooks ot' Col. Junction. There is no palaver over the wisdom of this choice. Brooks wants to coach a High School team and we are going to give him a lot of valuable experience playing on our team. However, we don't doubt but that he could manage it simply by the ardor of his person- ality, doncher know. Just because we've said some little things That someone said before, and sunned the funny side of things- Don 't get sore. We like you. Honest truth we do! 'Tis fun and nothing moreg And sure, we're only teasing you- So don't get sore. 1918 if fx e Q if .7 in ll r ff I e ', A A. .:: . . -.... V Y V 4 Y-A- A---,. :uu- f-.,.,.............,....--fr.--.

The pa,g'eantry consisted alike of pantomime, song and daneing'. Solo dances were given by Miss Muriel Betts, Miss Lois Hoel, Miss Dorothy Hutchinson, and Miss Helen Cromer. For openingr, the Goddess l'lrde reeeived the girls represent- ing grain, fruit, and minerals at her eourt. 'l'hen followed the three episodes ol? the Indian, Puritan, and finally the Modern period.

We believe that you will save the editors- of this annual from becoming the objects of charity, which indeed they will be, if they have received the good United States coin of these advertisers and you fail to re-imburse them by your pat- ronage.
