Chamberlain, dear to Denison because he is one of her own alumni, it could not be forgotten that it was Professor Cole who made our scientific department what it is, and that with almost nothing to work upon, save his own persevering genius and unselfishness. And Dr. Watson, a Cornell man, who is Professor Tight ' s successor, is all the nearer to our hearts because he was brought to Denison through Dr. Tight himself, to whom we owe so much. Another old Denison boy has this fall been welcomed back as a member of the faculty. Profe ssor Neil represents to us the reincarna- tion of the Oratorical Department. Interest in this class of work, which had sunk to a very low ebb indeed, has beeii wonderfully revived by the help and enthusiasm of such a teacher, who is already winning for himself a name on the platform. At least one evident change has already been made in consequence of the revived interest in this branch of the University ' s work. The Oratorical Association, whose membership ha.s I heretofore included only members of the Franklin and Calliopean Literary Societies, has been enlarged, and now embraces every member of each of the six literary societies of the school. Among these re Philomathean and Euterpean Societies of Shepardson College, and Horn this step has been taken another still more advanced. This year, for the first time, Deni- son sent to the State Oratorical Contest a woman representative, thereby following an example which other colleges have set. But is oratory our only boast? Not so. Is there a young man, a.t least, whose mind does not first and foremost turn to athletics? Denison need no longer wince at the word for under Holste, the much-needed coach who was at last procured, a new era has opened, in which nothing seems impossible. Coming to us from the University of Chicago, where he is now a law student, backed by a record of which anyone might be proud, his one term ' s work here was such as to make us fondly dream what another year may bring to our foot ball team. With a 1901 showing the best for years, is not a coach worth while? Yes, the Athletic Department has a future ; and just at the right moment, a fairy god-father has appeared with a gift which has its part for every student of the University. After years of forced endurance of the old athletic field, one of our loyal friends has supplied the need with a generous gift, which is surely appreciated. Last June, Mr. F. P. Beaver, of Dayton, presented to Denison, for use as an athletic park, the ground immediately opposite the T. O. C. R. R. station, on the Lancaster road. It is expected that within a year this ground will be ready for use, and the general rejoicing over this good fortune made seem as nothing the fee of one dollar for athletics which this year is levied upon every young man student. In return for this, each stu- dent is counted as a member of the Athletic Association. On last Commencement Day there was also made the announce- ment of another gift, much needed, and hailed with especial delight by the music pupils. The long-wished for pipe organ, soon to be placed in Recital Hall, will be only another reminder of our endless obligations to Dr. Wm. Howard Doane, of Cincinnati, the kind friend who has never failed us. In view of this encouragement, it is not strange that 16
