He was a great teacher a loyal friend of student and colleague alike, a faithful and efficient administrator who be- lieved that the interests of the students should be the first care of the University. I T is difficult to think of a greater George Washington University without thinking of Provost Wilbur. He has been so inherently a part of the institution and has made so many contributions to its life that we feel that his fine spirit will carry into the future as an ex- ample to guide us to the perfect ideal we are striving to reach. 4 18 W E all chink of Dean George Neely Hem ning as one of the loyal old guard of The University Through his efforts chiefly the Graduate School of Letters and Sciences has become an institution of the highest type. Dean Henning has gained our sincere admiration in his role of scholar executive and teacher. A r - Crandall, of the Fine Arts Division, 15 one of chose rare individuals who in- spires his students with his own enthusiasm and talent. His division stands out as one of the most hard-working and progressive in The University. Schmidt very efficiently guides the des- U ' tiny of The Division of Library Science. He is always available to students and they enjoy going to him for help as he is pleasant and sincere in his co-operation with them. T r. West is a very busy man as acting head of the School of Government. Through his constructive efforts, we have promise of a bril- liant future for this fast growing department. 19 Je- X Trs. Barrows is Director of Women ' s 1VJ. personnel Guidance and although a re cent addition to the administrative body of The University she is well known to everyone Her office is a place where all can go for informa- tion and help and be sure to receive a welcome. T r, Bolwell has alw-ays been one of The University ' s most outstanding professors and this year has been rewarded for his fine work and active interest in all George Wash- ington ' s affairs by being given the posts of Ad- visor to Students from Foreign Countries, and Director of the Summer Sessions. As expected, he has been successful in these positions. A fter an absence of a year we are more Ti chan pleased to welcome Dr. Elmer Louis Kayser back to George Washington. In his new- position as Director of The Division of Special and Extension Students Dr. Kayser is proving himself the same tactful, helpful, cheerful friend he has always been to us all. 4 20 M ' B Mi rs i J • i i l 1 9 l 1 1 1 1 i «Rti AukW ' -r £.‘ I ' lil ) 1 ' ■ Utumwi ' , ihie in- ' Htli ktwwt ' ' «■■; ' • m I 11 ! 1 oJtire ik a platti M� lwr at! i«u‘i ••• :| f ; ’’ l!l1 ' 1,1 1 NiiSin Mt ' d I ' lifMl luwt hi i. min � .:• iiw h ' r jpnilii i i| D ,!

The careful consideration and personal interest which Dr. Donaldson displays in the students under his jurisdic- tion has been a fine example of the man ' s character. W B wondered for awhile just what was w T rong around school and decided it was Dean HilPs absence. The students in his classes have felt even this brief de- parture keenly and all of us have missed his kindly un- derstanding and wisdom even though we know he will return in the fall all the richer for his year of study. T ' Xean Doyle is still man- D ' aging his various in- terests in his ever-brilliant manner and he seems to be able efficiently to take on extra responsibilities from time to time. The heights have been predicted for this capable man. Despite his active life he is always readv with a pleasant smile to as- sist all. HISTORY OF COLUMBIAN COLLEGE T uther Rice-Columbian College in the District of Columbia,, Columbian University, The George Washington University: a man — his lengthening shadow, an institution. While still a student at Williams dedicating himself to the service of God and his fellows, becoming a missionary to Burma, then a missionary to his own countrymen, conniving the idea of a college, pioneering up and down the states in his gig seeking friends and supporters, material- izing his idea, and struggling for its maintenance until death overtook him — such was the career of the college’s founder. First there was failure when a charter was sought from Con- gress, and then stopping in the midst of the debate on the Missouri Compromise that same Sixteenth Congress sent forth the charter which guaranteed to teachers and students freedom from all interference on matters of religion. 21 p On a lot of forty-seven acres, north of Florida Avenue and between 14th and 15th Streets, overlooking the young capital city the college plant was built, and to the streets which were laid out around it were given from time to time the names of college notables; but one, that of the second President, Chapin, still remaining On January 15, 1822, thirty-nine students having presented themselves, the faculty was formally inaugurated, and three years later the first graduating class, with three members, was sent forth into the world, while Lafayette, President Monroe, John Quincy Adams, John C Calhoun and Henry Clay looked on. In 1836 died Luther Rice, founder of the College, Those first fifteen years had been arduous ones for the Presidents and for Rice, during most of his time the financial agent. Difficulties had harassed from the beginning In 1827 the professors in dismay had resigned in a body Writing to President Chapin from Georgia in the year of his death Luther Rice had said; I request you will not mention in the District any expectation of my being there the first of June: merely because, if it should be known, it will excite the creditors of the col- lege to bestir themselves ” An increasing number of students was about the only source of encouragement, but after 1836 the fortunes of the College seemed to take a turn for the better. Each year a graduating class of around ten w T as going out, about half of them into the Christian ministry. At the outbreak of the war between the states the college was at the peak of its prosperity but of the students the greater part soon left for military service, a majority under the Stars and Bars. The College buildings were turned over to the Federal Government, but in spite of all, instruction was still offered for those who remained. After Appomattox the sections found speedy reunion in the College. One graduate, William L. Wilson, later to become Postmaster-Genera! under Cleveland and President of Washington and Lee, returned to his Alma Mater as an instructor still wearing the uniform of a Confederate cavalryman. Under the presidency of James C Welling, at the time of his election a Professor in Princeton College, Columbian moved from its old home on College Hill into the heart of the city at Dth and H Streets and changed its name to Columbian University, adding somewhat later to the old College and professional schools, the Corcoran Scientific School for part-time students. In 1888, hesitatingly and begrudgingly, the first woman was admitted to the College and a year later coeducation was adopted In the early years of the present century the University changed to its present name and for a period of a few years the College lost its name and identity when merged with other Schools into the Department of Arts and Sciences, only to reappear some twenty years ago under its old name and fulfilling its old function as a college of liberal arts. When the United States entered the World War eight hundred students were on the rolls of the College, and then came a speedy transformation. In the sudden movement toward Washington, regular enrollment increased fifty per cent and a Student Army Training Corps Unit or over two hundred and a Naval Unit of forty were formed. Barracks and mess halls were provided. Liberty Loan campaigns staged and Red Cross units organized. Then came peace, new growth in numbers, in physical equipment, in teaching strength, new determination to follow old ideals, new challenges to larger ideals A University to which the youth of fortune and talents might be sent for the comple- tion of their education in all the branches of polite literature in arts and sciences,” such as Washington had sought unsuccessfully by bequest to make possible, now existed.

From the large number of applicants who applied for membership at the beginning of the college year, the Club has been moulded by its director. Dr. Harmon, into a compact, well-balanced unit representing a high type of musical devel- opment. In the Fifteenth Annual Inter-collegiate Glee Club Contest, held in Carnegie Hall, New York City, on March 14, 1931, the Club demonstrated its ability by winning third place. The numerous engagements during the year included concerts over local radio stations, at the University Club, at the Shoreham Hotel in the local contest with Catholic University, and before state and various other societies. The annual spring concert which concluded the very successful season was held at one of the well-known hotels of Washington. 59 Front R j iV - — Left to rif hti Mary McCall, Sarah Me Elroy, Ella Eraser, Lynda Edwards, Mrs Harman, Martha Buchanan, Sarah Casteel, Mary Warrington, Grace Bauer, Deborah Daniel, Eleanor King Second Rote Left to rifjht: Marum Fowler, Louise Conrad, Virginia Coffman, May Brooks, Dorothy Shaffer, Virginia Hughes.

The Club is a member of the National League of Masonic Clubs and through the sale of Cherry Blossoms on Washington ' s Birthday each year and by other means is contributing to the fund of $250,000 which the National League has pledged to George Washington University for the endowment of two chairs in the School of Foreign Service, 61 THE GENERAL ALUMNI ASSOCIATION Tt is the earnest hope of the General Alumni Associa- tion that members of the Classes of 1931 will main- tain a close and lasting association with their alma mater through membership in the Association. Every graduate of the University automatically holds membership in the Association for one year following graduation. Thereafter, membership is continued upon payment of one dollar a year in annual dues, or ten dol- lars for life membership The graduates of The George Washington Univer- sity have a very definite part in the life of the institu- tion. They are represented on the Board of Trustees by six members of their own nomination, two of whom are elected each year for terms of three years. The priv- ilege of the ballot is extended to members of the Asso- ciation in good standing, who have held a degree for three years or longer. Washington alumni of the University meet each month at luncheon and from time to time throughout the year at social functions of the Association. In many of the large cities groups of alumni have formed chibs, and newcomers from the University are made welcome.

The welfare w T ork is conducted under the guidance of the Reverend Dr Dow, Superintendent of the City Missions with whom the Club has visited many char- itable institutions during the year. 4 66 r m Meredith, Cartwright Fincgao NEWMAN CLUB ' T ' he Newman Club is an organization of Catholic students of The George Washington -L University. It was founded in the spring of 1925 as an authorized center for the re- ligious, intellectual and social life of members of the Catholic Faith attending the University. From a nucleus of nine members the Club has become one of the most active organizations at George Washington, having an active membership of over one hundred students One of the paramount aims of the Newman Club is complete cooperation with the school authorities in advancing the welfare and standards of the University. Each year an elaborate social pro- gram of dances luncheons card parties, etc., culminating in the Newman Prom, is sponsored by the Club. The meetings of the Club are addressed by some of the most gifted speakers of Washington. The Newman Club is an accredited member of the National Federation of College Catholic Clubs. Club publications are the monthly Newman Bulletin and the annual satirical sheet, The New-Maniac. OFFICERS Richard Meredith Frances Ha mill Mary Kerwin Marian Roberts Charles Ferry .

W s -coed to her friend from little Northwestern one Novem- her day in 1951, that’s the way we do things here at G. W. after a football victory. Now we’ll just run over to rhe Student Union Ballroom and as soon as Jerry Sickler and his St. Elizabeth Symphony Serenaders arrive, the dance will start. But wouldn’t you like to get a bite to eat in the Union Grill, You know, no one dreamed we could beat Notre Dame 7-0, but if Billy Wells, Jr., hadn’t come through with that last run, it would have ended in a tie. He’s a regular chip-of-the-old-blotk, as his daddy was a good quarterback here in 1950. Oh, say, here come Dr. and Mrs. Cole. I guess they left little Caroline at home tonight. I believe they are with Mr. and Mts. Hawkins. You know, Marion never did care much for football. Why, say, here comes Mary Hudson, There’s one girl that never did get married. You know, Mary’s one of those philanthropists. She hates to disappoint anyone, so she wouldn’t break the heart of any of her four suitors. Oh, yes, I think the food is fine here, too. You know. Vivian Ward sure made a success of the position they gave her as the Union cuisinere back in 1932. She’s been there ever since, Wouldn’t you like to go up and rest awhile after dinner? If those over-stuffed chairs aren’t all occupied by the K. A.’s, we might rest awhile. The K. A s? Oh, yes, they always have been able to hold down the easy chairs. Look, here comes Bucky Herzog with that other New York millionaire. Did he make money? Lissen, ever since he helped Mary put the Cherry Tree over back in 1931, his finances have been on a continual upgrade. Why; he helped finance that $2,000,000 gymnasium that took the place of the Tin Tabernacle. Re- member when they only had room for a basketball court in it? Why, they’re even playing the National Conference, games in it this year. If Coach Burgess’ team can only maintain its form, it ought to win its fourth successive national title. The swimming pool? Oh, that’s in the basement. No, it’s not large — only 3,000 can get seats at a swimming match. But in the summertime, they hold the swimming meets out- doors, just off of the baseball diamond on the H street side. Yes, Clarke Griffith wanted to play the World Series at the Pixlee Stadium this year, but our game with Army fell on the date of the last game, and we had to have room for all of the 75,000. But the profits of Jack Dishman’s programs were even greater than what the rental of the Stadium would have been, so we didn’t lose a thing. Sh! There’s the Glee Club starting to sing. This makes the twenty-fourth successive year that they’ve won the national championship. What’s that they’re singing, ' Good Night Ladies?’ What time is it? Gosh, it’s three a. m. I must run and dress for my six a. m. class. Yes, dearie, you see, we must get our classes over with early these days in order to have time for our education. Slong, my dear.” 71 ■4 72 FRATERNITIES S. A h E — Even with a majority of such half pints as Gerald Free, Don Iglehart, and Ray M oulden, S. A. E. is still on the campus. Sigma Chi — As has been the case since 1921, the Sigma Chis are still getting a new house Sigma Nu— When Archie Burgess and Jimmie Mitchell graduate, what will become of the Sigma Nu complex? (Henry Nestor was also in the show ) Theta Delta Chi — This chapter brags conservatism in expansion, but does not brag so much about their radicalism in rushing Phi Sigma Kappa — Weitzel, Weit le, Whicezel, and the University Hatchet. Kappa Alpha — WeVe all heard of Joe Howard, but none of us have heard of this lodge Kappa Sig — W e have absolutely nothing to say. T. U. O. — When bigger and better T. U. O s are made, Jimmie Surer will be them. Acacia — After Ots Krimelmeyer decided that no Fraternity was good enough for him, he pledged Acacia, Delts. — Here we have the D. T9s. What are the Greek letters for seeing pink monkeys? S. P. E. — If S. P. E. wouldn ' t maintain a fraternity house, Moanin ' ” Lowe might attend classes. Phl Alpha — Phi Alpha is so exclusive that they won ' t even let Marvin come to their smokers O, A. T, — Sowing their wild OATs Sigma Mu Sigma— These boys pass Poly Set. Page Howard Payne. The Friars — With all respect to its age, this group is still crying for Castoria. We hear they aspire to Beta. 73 h ■4 74 SORORITIES Kappa Kappa Gamma— We hear Kappa doesn’t approve of rushing with men, therefore they have no Rush Dances. Could the difficulty he financial? Pi Phi— What Pi Phi dropped the cigarette butt that started the fire during the holidays? Chi Omega — Last year the cup for the best Chi Omega pledge went to Bluffe [bower; this year we suggest Rus Coombs. Sigma Kappa — What goes on behind the locked door of the Sigma Kappa kitchen? Bertie doesn’t know. Kappa Delta— T he Kappa Delta House is Open All Night. The wives and sweet- hearts of the Phi Alpha drunks request that they pull down their shades at night. Phi Mu— We suggest a new banner for these girls or abolition of the chapter. Alpha Delta Theta — E leanor Kise, author of Marriage and Morals ,, is a member of this club. A. D. Pr — The musical Adelphian Club now ' specializes in chin music. We recommend a change in the Greek letters to S. S. and G. Z. T. A.—Zeta wasn’t good enough even for Peggy Cook. Delta Zeta — Any Freshman girl who didn’t get an invitation to Delta Zeta’s opening tea let them know. It was an oversight. Phi Delta — -A re they exclusive or just young? We don’t know. Phi Sigma Sigma— Still Inter-Sorority basketball champions. A. E. Phi — Real exclusiveness is found in this chapter. They boast 5 fur coats, 3 road- sters, and innumerable diamond and rhinestone earrings — also red fingernails. 75 AS 1951 FINDS OUR PROFS Dr. Richardson — Three able men — Dr. Marvin, Provost Wilbur, and Dean Hill— now assist this illustrious philosophy professor in compelling students to attend classes, the trio send- ing out regular notices of meetings of the class and being on hand at each to check the attendance. Discovered if they are not at class, this present generation is unable to use the old fraternal and sisterly system of 1931 of having freshmen sign the complete chap- ter roll. Exams are of the essay type. Compensating for the removal of the attraction of enrolling in this course, overstaffed furniture has been placed in the classroom, thus giving that studious atmosphere to the cultural discussions taking place. Dr. RagaTZ — Turning introvert, this old favorite of co-eds and eds, has now no time for extra-curricula activities, devoting all of his spare moments to the copying of lectures from i860 textbooks, which, he claims, present history in the best form. These he reads to hts classes without comment. Realizing that his dignity was not all it should be, Lowell has added to his austerity with a black pointed goatee and sideburns. The old master” has slowed up considerable, and now hobbles to classes on a cane and bundled up with wraps and furs whenever it turns the least bit cool. He has just dedicated his 1951 supply set to A student body with less outside interests.” Elmer Louis Kayser — Our toastmaster of strictly male banquets” is no more. Sponsored by rhe Sunday School League of America, Kayser has just finished a book entitled, Guid mg steps for Little beet”, the new text for Sunday School pupils between the ages of 5 and 9. Kayser is also acting in his new capacity of censor of Earl Carroll ' s Vanities, bur banning an entire production as soon as he has noticed the least bit of vulgarity, the erstwhile history professor has yet to see the finish of the first act in any instance. He will continue to conduct chapel services in Corcoran Hall. Allan Thomas Deibert — Dishevelled in appearance, the former fashion plate has a hard time filling up his classes with the required number of pupils, the strain on their eyes being too much of a handicap. Losing all interest in socks, ties, and handkerchiefs, Allan was seen last week with red socks, a yellow tie, and a green handkerchief, with an ex- tremely rumpled and ragged suit visible from a great distance. His adoption of wing collars have not helped matters, either. Bridge has been entirely forgotten by the erst- while Mr Work, or George Washington, who has found a more seasonable recreation in wrestling. Fred August Moss-Denouncing the current type of true-false” examinations, the aging psychology professor has lauded the new style of test, in which a student writes all he knows and some which he makes up. He cares not for accuracy if the paper is inter- esting and provides amusement for the afternoon. He now has two sons in the institu- 4 76 cion in which he is teaching, St, Elizabeth ' s. My aim is to create imaginative writing, not a contributor to True Story ”, says Moss. Provost Wlbur — Another prof who has forsaken his own individuality for that of the crowd. Forgetting that rhetoric is self-expression through language”, Wilbur advocates the prin- ciple self-expression may best be expressed on the back seat going home. He advises that books are unnecessary, and education should develop from actions not words. He has followed the campus in its craze for Baby Austins — in his he drives Prexy to and from his home every day. Ample parking place is provided under his desk in the Administration Building. Mrs. Carroll — That dear old archaeology professor ess” has suddenly assumed a stem, fore- boding role, forcing each and every one of her students to recite every day and tell why. Knowing that all of the archaeology her pupils have learned may not be expressed in two hours, she has obtained permission to extend the length of her final exams to four hours. The irony of the whole situation is that she uses the pen presented her by the class of 31 to assign E’s and F ' s to their children. Daily quizzes give her an opportunity to have plenty of marks on the books by the end of the year. Dean Henning— Noticing that co-eds are not what they used to be, this Dean has all shades and varieties of lip stick and rouge resting on his desk, which may be distributed to the ladies five minutes before the bell rings. His insistence on the upkeep of the beauty” of George Washington, is therefore, doing its bit toward keeping the Colonialettes in the public eye, all of his girl students being recognizable by their ominous war paint and colorings at 200 yards. Courtland Drake Baker — Having just completed a course in the Speed-Talk School . Baker has radically altered the system of taking notes in his classes ,the students being forced to employ shorthand in order to keep up with his remarks. Their only breath- spell occurs during his uh-uh-uhs which, however, are rapidly dying out. Last week he only uh-uhed four times. He was last seen in class in a dark green slip-over sweater and knickers, having just come in from a round of golf with Professor Delbert, James E. Pixlee — Stationed in white linen golf knickers, this former sedate director of ath- letics of the University back in 1931 is now acting proprietor of the George Washington University miniature golf course, built by his aides, Jean Sexton, Len Walsh, and Max Farrington last year, Jimmy charges only five cents a round to all students and is fre- quently employed in the role of instructor to all beautiful co-eds. The tall, lean individ- ual is always cordial to those making known their desire to learn the game which he considers as far superior to that bruising, rough sport — football. 77 p -4 78 September: 20 Student Council Dance October : 4 Rutger 5 Game I I Delaware Game IT South Dakota Game November : l-ll VJbmeri5l?u5hing 14 Gate KeyPo5h Dance 21 CU Dance 29 Navy Game December: 6 County Fair 10 Inter- Fra t Fledge Pnom t£!3,l4Troubadours January February. 5 Porr-Hel Dollar Dance 27 Glee C lu b Concert Dorce 79 b- March: 6 Interfraternhy Prom 27-?fiPrama Club Produdion STUDENT COUNCIL DANCE { {l jVBftYBQDY” was at the Student Council Dance on September 26 , I ' ll say they were! And why not? It was the opening social event of the season , a chance to meet old friends and best of all a chance to look over the freshmen. And better than anything else — a chance to dance — for nothing, mind you! — to the music of Johnnie” Slaughter ' s Band, of Powhatan Roof fame. Many amusing things happened that night. The Troubadours tried to put on a program of entertainment, but the crowd was too thick and noisy — Sickler couldn’t even get floor space for his famous Snake Dance. Johnnie” had to call on Prexy for help because the crowd was swamping his hand and cramping his style. In spite of the crowd in Corcoran, the Campus, which was really beautiful wih lanterns and blooming flowers was peaceful and quiet. An Hawaiian Stringed Quartet strummed all evening in a secluded nook, and over behind the Library, punch flowed lavishly. Girls in pretty summer frocks strolled with young men in white suits. It was really one of the pret- tiest evenings that the good old Campus has ever seen. GATH AND KEY npHE Gate and Key Rush Dance at the Sigma Nu House in November, during Non- Communication and after sorority rushing, was a most amusing party. The freshmen girls spent the evening trying not to communicate with the sorority girls in the dressing room and autos. The Kappas arrived late en masse — we can ' t figure out what they were trying to prove by that. The rest of the evening the Pi Phi’s and Kappa’s spent counting noses to see who had the greatest number present. The Gate and Key rushees were relatively unimportant amid all this excitement. 4 80 INTERFRATERNITY PLEDGE COUNCIL PROM PALM COURT, SHOREHAM HOTEL December 10, 1930 O N Wednesday, December 10, at the witching hour of eleven, we sauntered through the lobby of the Shoreham, feeling all round-shouldered from the weight of our first corsage of the season, and meandered up to the closely guarded door of the newly opened Palm Court, and there was Zachariah Deminue Black is tone, third. There he stood in his tail coat and white gloves, pinning little flags on black coats to prove that the black coats had a right to be there. We could see that with such a beginning this was going to be a very closed affair and a very distinguished one. Edward G, Crouch And it was! Those Inter fraternity youngsters put on a prom that could make their lords and masters blush. It was held at the smartest hotel in town, with good music and was at- tended bv the pick of the co eds on the campus. The Leadout Dances” when each fraternity had the floor for a few minutes and danced to its own sweetheart song, was an interesting inno- vation and a good way of showing off the girls and the representation of each organization. The favors were novel and useful besides. We couldn’t help wondering if the doggie on top meant anything except that this was a very doggie” affair. The committee responsible for the party and the young ladies with whom they shared honors were: Edward G. Crouch, Chairman , S. N,, led the prom with Martha Liles Robert L. McCormick, K. S., Madeleine Duncan John B. Lathrop, P. S, 1C, Mildred Burnham C. A. Christianson, Acacia, Maude Hudson G. W. Van Demark, T, D. X,, Harriet Ryder Z. D. Blackistone, 3rd, S. X., Mary Jane Allen MIDDLE ATLANTIC GLEE CLUB CONTEST February 27, 1931 The large ballroom at the Shoreham was Idled with proud parents and schoolmates of the G. W. and G LL Glee Clubs. And what a showing our boys made in the contest with the C. U. Club! Bob Harmon’s boys sang with spirit, in perfect unity and with a control and clearness of tone that the other club simply couldn’t approach. Those G. W.-ites present were mere than proud of their justly famous choral group. The dance afterw-ards was a lot of fun, and after the older folks left it turned into a regular G. W. whoop-it-up party, with a lot of pep breaking loose. It was amusing to observe that the crowd which thinks itself the G. W. Smart Set” — that cream” of the fraternities and sororities that brags so about its support of campus affairs — was but sparsely represented. Strangely enough we found that in spite of their absence it was a very chic”, attractive and gay crowd. Those that didn ' t show up surely missed a gr-rand time! And— we have heard that the Club more than made its expenses to New York. How’s that for support? 81 fc- THE COUNTY FAIR O N December 6 the Y W C A. County Fair hit Corcoran Hall This year the booths lined the corridor in order to leave Corcoran I free for dancing. The general idea was good, but the practical effect was crushing, to say the least The attendance wasn’t as great as usual because of the bad rain-storm but the percentage of dimes wrung ftom each man was high. In the booth competition, Pi Phi’s was the most popular; Kappa’s was most attractive, and Alpha Delta Theta’s received honorable mention. Late in the evening Winfield Weitzel and Midge Burnham entertained svith songs The Chaperons and Patronesses for the affair were Mrs Barrows, Professor Cooper, Mrs. Harry Hull and Miss Daisy Watkins COMMITTEE IN CHARGE Mary Weaver and Helen Swick Jane Hill .Winnie Beall Lee Anna Embrey Booths Dancing ...

After we reached the Phi Sig box and had a chance to catch our brearh we noticed that as usual the Sig Eps had the best box in the room, that the faculty box was not very thoughtfully placed but was unusually well populated, and even Prexy appeared for a while. The Prom music was radiobroadcasted for the first hour, and Slaughter forgot to an- nounce a couple of the dances, so our program was all mixed up. But that really did not matter for a few stags managed to wander in around 11.30 and mess up the programs any- way. Ar midnight Arthur Darton and Eleanor Herzog, and Bob Gray and Peggy Borjes led the Grand March. Then to prolong the agony of waiting for the Razzberry the Interfratern ity competition cups were presented. For the next twenty minutes everybody saw red or rather pink as they anxiously looked the Razzberry over to see if the ride they got was so bad that they wouldn ' t dare take the pink sheet home where the family could see it. Then they turned the lights down and speeded the music up and we really began to enjoy the Prom. 83 Xndel Little Cecils Harrington PAN-HELLENIC PROM T HE Pan-Hellenic Prom, the last formal affair of the season, was held at the Shoreham on April 24 , from ten to two. One of the Shoreham bands furnished the music. The attractive lighting arrangements in the Ballroom made a lovely setting for the girls ' new spring dance frocks. As usual the men were generous with corsages, so everyone was happy and had a gay time. The Committee for Prom Arrangements was: Cecils Harrington Alpha Delta Pi Indel Little. — Chi Omega -=4 84 Ji HIGHLIGHTS Here we have the two very efficient managers of our Calendar of Social Events conducted under the auspices of the Stu- dent Council, Maude Hudson had the job of getting the thing started last fall.

Each fraternity drew fifty matches from the box when play begun. Sigma Nu was way ahead until refreshments were served, but when their regular went out (not on fouls) , the substitute couldn ' t cope with the situation. Elimination of the other representatives this year was fairly easy. Three teams were kidnaped on the night they w f ere to appear, while the other four were shot for cheating. John Thacker ' s strategy in the imerfratemity skating events won a cup for Phi Sig and two bright neckties for himself. Bob Gray and Barney Conger laid out the course for the finalists, Brad Swope of S. A. E,, jack Dishman of Acacia, and Brother John. The first route led past a [oral undertaker where Swope lost fifteen minutes on account of a fu- neral. It is against the District vehicle law to break through a funeral and Brad didn ' t want to be in it, so he waited. Knowing the race was scheduled between 5 and 6 o ' clock, Dishman ' s course u ' as 100 times around the school block Dodging in and out between double parkers for 10 minutes dulled Jack ' s alertness so Skipper Wilbur Wins Yachting Trophy much that he w as run over twice and forced to retire. Thacker’s lane led directly uptown and back to the starting point. He hooked on to a car at the beginning, was towed uptown, and then coasted back to win the race. When questioned on this means of travel, Mr. Thack- er said, If Mr. Swope wishes to protest the race because of motor assistance, I will gladly forfeit the neckties, but the cup will not be returned unless Mrs. Barrows decides the contest illegal on account of lack of chaperones.” =4 86 MINIATURE YEAR BOOK, 1931 Barrows, Vinnie G.

In 1909 che designation was changed to Teachers’ College and this was changed to The School of Education in 1928. The school will enter upon the twenty-fifth year of its oper- ation in September 1931, which makes it peculiarly fitting that we direct our thoughts at this time to its history and development. The persons w ' ho took the initiative in organizing the Division of Education were Pres- ident Charles Willis Needham and Professor Wilhston S. Hough. Professor Hough was designated as Professor in Charge of the Division and his title was changed to Dean with the elevation of the Division to a College in 1909. In this position Dean Hough continued until his death on September 18, 1912 at the age of 51. He was succeeded by William Carl Ruediger, who has been at the helm ever since. The staff of the Department of Education for the year 1907 1908 consisted of eight persons. Professor Hough devoted the major portion of his time to Philosophy but offered also one graduate course in Educational Psychology. Commissioner Elmer Ellsworth Brown gave five lectures on educational theory, a practice that he continued annually until he resigned as United States Commissioner of Education in 1911 to become Chancellor of New York University, a position that he still occupies. William Estabrook Chancellor, Superintendent of the Washington Schools, gave courses on School Management and School Administration. He left Washington in 1908 and is now in the Department of Economics of St. Xavier Col- lege, Cincinnati. George Edmund Meyers, Principal of McKinley High School, gave a course on the History of Education and announced two courses, Manual Training in Education and Moral Aspects of Education, for future years. Dr. Meyers is now Professor of Vocational Education in the University of Michigan. Willard S. Small, Principal of Eastern High School, gave courses on Child Study and School Hygiene. Dr. Small continued on our staff until 1922. He is now Dean of the School of Education of the University of Maryland, William Wesley Black, a Supervising Principal of the Washington Schools, gave courses on Educational Psychology and General Method. He became Professor of Education in Indiana 89 h University in 1908, a position from which he retired as Professor Emeritus in 1925. He is living in Bloomington, Indiana Stephen Elliott Kramer, then a Supervising Principal, gave a course on Classroom Management, a practice that he continued for a number of years. He is now First Assistant Superintendent of the Washington Schools. William Carl Ruediger, Assistant Professor of Educational Psychology, gave courses on Educational Psychology Prin- ciples of Education, History of Education, Elementary Education, Secondary Education, and he initiated the work in Observation and Practice Teaching In 1907 the affairs of the Division of Education were in charge of an Administrative Council which reported its actions to the Faculty of Undergraduate Studies for approval or rejection The first Administrative Council consisted of Professor Hough, as chairman; Professors Paul Bartsch, Charles S. Smith and S, I. Franz, Assistant Professors Croissant and Ruediger, and Dr. Meyers. Four members of this Council are still active in the University. Dr. Franz is now Professor of Psychology in the University of California at Los Angeles. During 1907-08, 100 students registered in the Division of Education as follows: Graduates 12 Candidates for a Bachelor ' s Degree and Teacher’s Diploma 34 Special Students in the Teacher’s Course 29 Special Students in Arts and Crafts .. 25 Total 100 The courses in Arts and Crafts were Started in February, 1908, under the direction of Mr Harry S. Michie, and continued through the following year, after which they were dis continued. At the close of the first year, June. 1908, the degrees were conferred upon Claus J Schwartz and Alvin W. Miller. The roster of students for the first year contained a number of persons who later attained high position in the Washington school system. Among these are May Paul Bradshaw, Robert Lee Haycock, Agnes Inch Little, Alvin W. Miller, Viola Offut, Claus J Schwartz, Henry White Draper, Charles A. Hart and Edith Lee Compton. From these modest beginnings has the School of Education grow r n. The School now embraces the departments of Education, of Home Economics, and of Physical Education (for teacher training) and it has representatives on its faculty from all the departments in which students are likely to specialize for teaching purposes Including the summer session, upwards of 40 courses in education are given annually During the year 1929-30, 694 students were registered and 60 w r ere granted degrees. 4 90 Katherine Abends Washington, D.

Administrations came and administrations went but the families who lived in the neighbor- hood of which the present Education building was the center, remained in their respective places and continued to officiate as leaders of the social set. Originally the house was the property of Dr, May, prominent physician and surgeon and one of the consultants at the deathbed of President Lincoln. Dr, May had three sons, one of w T hom died at an early age; of the two remaining, Wm. C. May moved to New York and is living there at present, while the other, Frederick May, stayed on at the G Street house until his death a few years ago. There were also three sisters in the family, prominent in society and internationally known beauties. One of them married an English peer and after his death married again, this time William C, Whitney, father of Payne and Harry Payne Whit- ney, They made their home in Aiken, South Carolina, where Mrs, Whitney met her death while riding horseback. The other daughters were Mrs, Carrie May Wright and Mrs, Ram dolph, both of New r York City. Frederick May was a prominent Capital realtor and was well known as a collector of rare Chinese porcelains. At his death the collection was sold by the heirs of the family The house remains in the hands of the heirs whose desire is that it shall not be dismantled, but shall be allowed to crumble as the passing years shall dim the memories of the gayety which once enlivened its halls. 97 EDUCATIONAL BRIEFS A mong the alumni of the School of Education attaining prominence are Stephen E. Kramer, first superintendent of the Washington Schools; Charles Hart, principal ot Eastern High School; L. Hardy, assistant superintendent of the Washington Schools; Edward Wiest, Professor of Economics at the University of Kentucky; Mr. Patrick, also on the faculty at the University of Kentucky; Wm. Carson Ryan, Jr., Chief of the Indian Service; Francis Crowley, Dean of the School of Education at St. Louis LJniversity; Dr. Shinn, De- partment of Agriculture; and W. C. Johns, U. S. Bureau of Education. £ 4 = Claudia Sutton, practice teaching at Gordon Junior High, told an incident that happened in one class she was teaching! A little girl gave a talk about killing a pig. Afterwards a little boy in the class asked the girl, Where did your grandfather stab the pig?” She said, In the backyard, of course!” £ It was Christmas Eve that the School of Education, the hottest department on the campus, finally went up in smoke. Fire engines clanged down G Street, and ambulances hooted up Twenty-first, The crowd of spectators was almost as great as the multitude that turned out for the senior elections this year and the excitement was wild Inside, however, all was calm and well-organized. Building D burned as a hot-bed of educators should — with dignity and restraint. Dean Ruediger, still in the robes of Santa Claus, stood in the middle of the staircase to preserve order among the lines of students filing past him, clutching the presents he had given them. Judy Wood played the exit march, so that none would lose step, and Dr. French stood outside and smiled at the photographers. The fire broke out in the basement, where some sorority girls from upstairs had retired to smoke a few peaceful cigarettes with the janitor. In a short while the whole building was ablaze. Little fingers of flame caressed the delicately tinted walls of the best classrooms, and scorched the expensive mahogany desks and cane-bottomed chairs. Millions of dollars worth of books were destroyed. Dr. Powers, who was out, as usual, when the excitement started, w F ept mournful tears into his w-oolen muffler, when he discovered that his famous collection of high school texr books had been cremated. The Student Council, however, has promised to solicit pledges from all University students, as soon as the Student Union campaign is over. 4 = They w ' ere showing slides of the old Court House in Concord.

Why haven’t you been at school?” Before Abbott could explain the teacher proceeded to tell him what she thought of him for skipping school. Finally Abbott managed to say: ”1 am a student at G.

For two days I argued with my inclinations and fate. My inclinations brought up the possibility and even probability of knowing less than nothing, being quizzed in that, stammering, fainting, and fleeing. Fate said it was an opportunity, and even a privilege, that others had done it, that it would be a good laboratory experiment and, most important, that it must be done. Somewhat weak and scared from the last metaphorical bat- tle fought on the street car en route to the high school, I meekly presented myself to the teacher whose understudy I w’as to be. She told me to get my breath and seat myself in the back of the room. The student in front of me turned around just before the last bell rang and asked: ff What did she assign us for today?” Mary Warrington The incorrigible and fresh child. I have met him One day while I was trying to put over a tedious grammar lesson, Tracy insisted upon talking gaily on At first T tried to act as though nothing was going on. Finally I said, ' Stop talking. 77 He gave me a lop-sided kind of smile and said ”AI1 right, grandma V 1 1 was so bowled over at his superb impertinence that my mind became an utter blank.

She also is a sculptor. Moulding the soft clay in her hands, punching it here, smoothing it out there, giving it a pleased look an- other place, the teacher in approximately forty periods turns out a firm foundation or model of what the finished product will be with a few years ' experience. All of the city school officials and the principals of the senior and junior high schools have been more than willing to co-operate with the School of Education of George Washing- ton University- Observing a teacher and taking her course are two different things. When in high school the teachers who set a high standard and held us to that standard often seemed merciless to us and we tried to avoid them. Going back and observing that same teacher four years later let us see the thing in a different light We wonder how she can possibly know so much, how the students could try to get away from her Tt all depends on which side of the fence you are The teachers the students have observed have been more than anxious to help. They have answered inane questions, they have taken time from other duties to discuss the class observed, and they have fired the student teacher with ambition. Studying the practice teacher, analyzing her weak points and correcting them are jobs of the teacher. A girl with a weak personality is developed into a person with force that is felt in the school room Student teachers weak on planning ability are taught how to strengthen their daily lesson plans. Besides all the mechanical things connected with the classroom the teacher trains the student teacher in ethics and character building. The sympathy, the help, the interest and the loyalty to her profession that the teachers in the city schools have given will always be remembered and deeply appreciated by the prac- tice teachers ■4 102 OBSERVATION!

Dean Lap ham, C.E, The Dean holds membership fraternities, A. S. C E-, A, C. L, Engineers. T ean John Raymond Lap ham became affiliated with the George Washington University in 1916 and has been with it since that time. He started as an Assist- ant Professor in Civil Engineering and has been pro- moted through the different positions to the present place as Dean of the Engineering School. This year the Dean is on sabbatical leave and is doing research work at Johns Hopkins University. He has had numerous outside interests such as work in the U, S Housing Corporation, construction work, and special investigations and tests for manufacturers and users of cement and allied products, in the following organizations; Acacia and Sigma Tau S. P. E. E., A. A. E. t and the Washington Society of T ' Xean Arthur Frederick Johnson received his de- gree in Mechanical Engineering here in 191 L He returned to the University in 1916 to head the Depart- ment of Naval Architecture until 1918. He left then to take the position of Marine Superintendent of Trans- port Service in the Government. In 1923 he accepted the position of Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineer- ing. and has passed through the intermediate positions to the Acting Dean of the Engineering School. Dean Johnson has been active in the literary held in that his books, Design and Construction of Power Work boats” and the Bibliography and Complete Digest on Wire Rope have been published. He did some ex- tensive work in the field of research on high speed Diesel engines at Langley Laboratory. In addition to these he has written a book on Descriptive Geometry”, which is to be published this year. Acting Dean Johnson, M.E. He is a member of the A. S. M. E., F. A. A. M., and R, A. M. 103 !-♦ HISTORY OF THE SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING T HE School of Engineering of the George Washington University originally bore the name of the Corcoran Scientific School. This Corcoran Scientific School was founded in 1884 and was located on the corner of Fifteenth and H Streets, Northwest, in the old University HalL The engineering school continued under the name of the Corcoran Scientific School until 1903, when it was combined with the School of Graduate Studies of the Columbian College under the name of the Department of Arts and Sciences. This name was retained for two years. In 1905 all of the engineering courses were placed under administrative or- gamzation and the name of the school was changed to the Washington College of Engineer- ing. but the location remained the same. Ac various times throughout all of these years the school at this location was enlarged and improved due to the increase in the study of engi- ne ring courses at the school, and due probably to the fact that the school was rated high by other engineering schools. In 1909 the name of this Washington College of Engineering was changed to the College of Engineering and Mechanic Arts. The school functioned under this title until 1914 when, no longer located in the old University Hall, the name was short- ened to merely the College of Engineering. The College of Enginering ran smoothly and without any great change from 1914 to 1928 when the name was again changed, this time to the School of Engineering, which name it still bears. This School of Engineering is located at Twenty-first and G Streets among the other University buildings. The courses given throughout the whole existence of the School of Engineering were civil engineering, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, and starting in 1913 courses in architecture were given.

Turner 111 THE GRIST MILL W ELL, boys, Paul Revere snags rhe mi tide wed shirr for the second year in succession. {Note: This valued trophy is offered each year by this august tribunal to the prof who - — bur go on with the story.) Yes, he bore down rhe hardest on the old grindstone this year. What did he grind? Well, anything will do, but he majors on us poor suckers noses. It wasn’t entirety the quantity of work prescribed by Mr. Nash, but rather rhe diabolical thought- fulness of detail which induced him to mimeograph a schedule of torture for each of his classes. That velvet finishing touch of providing something to look forward to places him at the head of the list of those whose slogan is They shall not pass. 7 ' That by-word of the profs just sort of grew out of thin air, but Dean (Acting) Johnson grabbed it like so much cheese, and has made us forget there was a moon. Dates? Oh, noth- ing doing. There’s too much romance in engineering. Let ' s get down to cold facts. Of course there are a few who just won ' t be ground into dust, or at least put up a kick about it. Nash had to kinda ignore one Mason, who tried to throw Nash with a back-handed jiu-jitsu more than once, and so nearly succeeded that he marred an otherwise unblemished record on the part of the gentleman from New York. Another factor in Paul’s success was a slight accent, which he acquired in some unknown country, and which sometimes gave some doubt as to whether he was saying Dis” or ' r Dat.” With due reverence for the mastermind, the poor boys did nothing more than snicker with every accented word. This tended to divert their minds, though thus tending to further accentuate Mr. Nash’s powers. So you see, my children, Prof. Paul Revere Nash is naturally gifted for his office and verily deserves pre-eminence. Prof. Nash’s success was no doubt inspired by the keen competition given him by Dean Johnson. In taking over Dean Laphams problems of state, Johnnie probably handicapped himself in the race by diverting time which would otherwise be spent in stretching a freshman on a tension machine to see what makes him go. Undoubtedly Johnnie could have at least tied his lieutenant at this game if given the proper material with which to work. But unfortunately he has willed that the freshmen and seniors are to be hor’s d combat for him. Everybody knows that one class is too dumb to know they’re being slaughtered, and the other class is too broken in body and mind to care a whoop. A. F. J s chief millstone around the neck is the Paul Brown of Frank Merriwell fame, who saves the day for the freshman basketers year after year. Johnnie s worry is to deter- mine just how late in the season Brown can play before he declares said Brown ineligible. Johnson evidently does not recognize the sterling worth of this phenomenon who has re- peated the performance of in-again out-again enuf to deserve a better fate. Any freshman can tell you that Johnson has a mighty big help in that old descrip book, though. It is better to let the dead bury the dead, however, since nothing can be done about it. Norman B. Ames is a theorist. His choice of this unheard of engineering application is still a mystery to himself and to his students. As Billy Caul says, before and after an explanation by Ames, Please, professor, I don’t understand.” Bennie Cruikshanks has a unique method of crossing them up. Very simple, too. He just runs down the alphabet in asking questions. This gets a pupil’s mind so worked up wondering where he’s going to start and stop that the question just passes over his head, and another f Can you tell me” is wasted. Chadwick qualifies for the original bump on the log Mechanics students just si: in their chairs at .10 p. m., watch Chadwick roll in and fasten himself to the professorial chair. Then the game begins. Every student in that class has tried to get Chad up from that seat and to the board for a lecture, but it ' s no soap. The boys just have to get up and go to the board with those problems. And the old boy just parks in that chair rill 6.00 p. m The blight of the C. E. student’s life is Barney French. His courses are particularly helpful to those suffering from insomnia and such diseases. His criterion is to make the course as dry as possible and never to give more than a rr C” in any class. ' On to the primer class, fellows’ Hitchie is here today. Prof Hitchcock gives us reading lessons to improve our English and our knowledge of bridges, but the job is hopeless.

He has been on the faculty of the Law School since 1912. From 1912 until 1916 he w-as an Instructor in Law He was made an Assistant Professor in 1916 and served in this capacity until 1919. He was Secretary of the Law School from 1912 until 1920. In 1923 he was made Acting Dean, and has been Dean since 1924. Dean Van Vleck is a member of the following societies: American Society of Interna- tional Law, American Law ' Institute, American Bar Association, Sigma Phi Epsilon, Phi Delta Phi, Order of the Coif. Dean Van Vleck is a member of the committee of advisors to the reporter on the restate- ment of the conflict of laws of the American Law Institute. During the academic years 1930-31, he has been doing r esearch work on the subject of conflict of law T s at Harvard Law School, w ' hile on sabbatical leave from the University. 115 £- HISTORY OF THE LAW SCHOOL C olumbian College later to become The George Washington University, was chartered by act of Congress approved by President James Monroe on February 9, 1821. The law department of the College was organized in 1826 with a two-year course, Hon, William T. Carroll and Hon. William Cranch were its first professors, the latter being the compiler of Cranch’s Supreme Court Reports, and Chief Justice of the Circuit Court of the District of Columbia. Rev. Dr. William Staughton was President of the College at this time. All branches of the institution occupied buildings erected on a forty-seven acre tract of land on ' Col lege Hill”, in the part of Washington now lying between Fourteenth and Fifteenth Streets, extending from Florida Avenue to Columbia Road, Owing to financial difficulties, the Law School was discontinued in 1827. The operations of the Law School were resumed in 1865 and have continued ever since. It is the oldest law school in the District of Columbia, During the early periods, the course was two years in length, and classes met for one hour sessions on three evenings of the week. From 1865 until 1884 the School occupied the Columbia Law Building on Fifth Street, N, W., between D and E Streets, the site of the Columbia office building. By act of Congress, Columbian College became Columbian University March 3, 1873. At this time there were 103 students in the Law School. In 1877 a course leading to the degree of Master of Laws was added to the curriculum. In 1884 the College proper, the Law and Scientific Schools, moved to the University Building erected at the corner of Fifteenth and H Streets, N. W., the site now occupied by the Woodward Building, In 1898 the course leading to the degree of Bachelor of Laws was increased from two to three years. In 1899 a building was erected adjacent to the University Building, on the east side, for the use of the Law School, In 1900 the Law School became one of the charter members of the Association of American Law Schools and has remained a member of the Association since that time. It has always borne a high reputation among the law schools of the country. It is approved by the Council of Legal Education and the American Bar Association, In 1902 Dr. C. W. Needham, of the District of Columbia Bar, and Dean of the Law School, was elected President of the University. During his term of office Columbian Uni- versity became The George Washington University by act of Congress, January 23, 1904. Admiral Charles H Stockton, U S, N., retired, succeeded President Needham in 1910. President Stockton served until 1918 and the present Law School Building is named in his honor. The Law School became co educational in 191 L In 1915 it was moved to the Masonic Temple Building at Thirteenth and H Streets, N. W., where it occupied the fifth and sixth floors. At this time the enrollment was 424. In 1920 the location of the school was changed to 1435 K Street, N. W. This building had previously been occupied by the Department of Justice. Stockton Hal! was dedicated to the use of the Law School on November 14, 1925. Dr. William Mather Lewis, President of the University, presided at the ceremony. Dean Roscoe Pound of Harvard Law School delivered the dedicatory address, and the keys of the building were delivered to Dean William C. Van Vleek. The Maury Memorial Library of 14,000 volumes is housed on the fourth floor of Stock- ton Hall. This law library is dedicated to the memory of Professor William A. Maury, who served on the faculty from 1877 un til 1906 Professor Maury, who died in 1918, was one of the most loved professors of the School The Order of the Coif, the national honorary legal society, established a Chapter at the Law ' School in 1926 A prior honorary organization, The Benchers, founded in 1923, formed the nucleus of the new Chapter. ■4 116 P rofessor Charles Sager Collier, Acting Dean of the Law School for the academic year 1930-31, was born in Kinder hook, New York, September 21, 1889. Professor Collier received his preliminary education at public and private schools in Kinderhook, and at Worcester Academy, Worcester, Massachusetts, from which school he was graduated in 1907 with the second highest honors in his class. He was awarded the Bucknell Prize Schol- arship. He was graduated from Harvard College in 1911, with the degree of Bachelor of Arts, summa cum laude. While at Harvard he was awarded the Ricardo Prize Scholarship in Economics and the Sheldon Traveling Fellowship Professor Collier spent the years of 1911 and 1912 in Europe, traveling and studying at the Ecoles des Sciences Politiques at Paris He received the degree of Bachelor of Laws from Harvard Law School in 1915. After his graduation in law, he practiced in New York City until coming to The George Wash- ington University as Assistant Professor of Law During the World War he served in the Coast Artillery Reserve Corps, and is a First Lieutenant in the Coast Artillery Reserve Corps. Professor Collier lectured at Cornell University after the war. He returned to the Law School in 1919, and w-as made Professor of Law in 1920. Professor Collier was Acting Dean of the Law School for the Summer Sessions in 1927 and 1930 and has been Acting Dean for the academic year 1930-31. Prof $or Collier is a member of the Cosmos Club The Harvard Club of Washington, D. C , The Torch Club of Washington, D. C., Harmony Lodge, F. A. A, M , Phi Beta Kappa, Harvard Chapter, The Order of the Coif, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Phi Delta Phi, The American Society of International Law and the American Academy of Political and Social Sciences 117 T Telen Newman, Secretary and Librarian of the Law School, was born in Washington , D. C, Mav 23, 1904. She artended the District of Columbia public schools, and was graduated from Western High School in 1022. Miss Newman was valedictorian of her class. In 1 923 the University conferred upon Miss Newman the degree of Bachelor of Laws with distinction, and in 1927 she received the degree of Master of Laws. Miss Newman was Assistant Librarian of the Law School from 1923 until 1925. In 1925 she was made Secre- tary of the Law School, and in 1927 she was made Law Librarian. Miss Newman is a member of the Order of the Coif. Delta Sigma Rho, Chi Omega, Kappa Beta Pi, and the Women ' s Bar Association.

Following his graduation, he was appointed First Lieutenant in the Medical Corps of the Army. He passed through the successive grades of the army to that of Lieutenant Colonel, which rank he held at the time of his retirement in 1909. During the Spanish-American War, he was the commanding officer in the General Hospital at Key West, Florida; and from 1898 to 1907 he was commanding officer of the Army General Hospital in Washington, D. C., which has since that time become Walter Reed Hospital. He has been Professor of Surgery and Dean of the Medical Department of George Washington University since June 15, 1909. During the late war he was Chief of the Surgical Service at Walter Reed Hospital, 129 HISTORY OF THE SENIOR CLASS D ifferent That ' s it! We arc different! It all started at Freshman Class elections. The machinations of the dominating political combine had failed to provide more than three officers, when, alas and alack, it was found that there were four offices to fill. With the ready resourcefulness that is characteristic both of a doctor and a politician, a motion was made that the offices of Secretary and Treasurer he combined Ah!” said the keen-witted Sophomore w f ho was conducting the elections. You want to he different!” It didn ' t come out immediately — the Freshman year (and indeed all the years) of med- ical school being calculated to form all students into a single pattern of sameness However, in the Sophomore year, the class became triumphant over a battle about weary hours spent on notebooks” and decided to waste the time chasing around to dairies and water- works. Different again! for whoever heard of medical students drinking milk? In the Junior year the frolic continued in earnest. The Bull-pen” was turned into a gymnasium; Major Bocock’s chairs were broken; and then the big boys ' went out and formed the Varsity football team! Now’ in the Senior year, this oh-so-d Liferent class starts in with the largest enrollment heard of in years Incidentally, it will be the first to graduate (?) under the new regime of Triple Deans hip. They even want different diplomas. That ' s the word — ” different”. ■ 130 OSCAR BENWOOD HUNTER, A.M., M.D. Assistant Dean Professor of Bacteriology and Pathology 131 p=- ■4 132 Jose Angel Ayrar San truce, Porto.

This concludes my radio talk on Cancer of the Stomach. This is Robert M. Bolton, Chairman of the Publicity Committee of the American Medical Association, speaking. Now I have an important announcement for the physicians of America. The next annual Convention will be held in the beautiful new medical school of George Washington University on February 29 to 31, 1950. We want to see every one of the 500,000,000 doc- tors throughout the country at the meeting. The hospitals have agreed to turn all patients over to the chiropractors while the doctors are away. You are requested not to bring your wives, as female escorts will be provided for all occasions 7 I glanced guiltily at my wife, but she had heard; and said scornfully, Some of that Billy Martin’s work, I suppose. 77 Poor Charley Mohr 7 I mused. He have to drag his wife along. He married Fofo Mezitis, you know ” Yes, and you married me, and you’ll take me along ' replied my fiercer half, or I’ll advise all your patients to turn Christian Scientists ’ And so we went to the convention. Where to ? 77 queried the taxi driver at Union Station. Oh, hello, jimmy Green!” I cried. What are you doing — aren’t you practicing medicine?” Sure,” he replied. I do that for fun, but I have to drive a cab to make a living,” As we swept up to the convention hall, there was a Z-o-o-m in the sky above and a gaudy yel- low and red gyroplane rocketed down to earth just in front of us + Out of the machine climbed a man with a huge pair of shoulders. Hurry up, ' Gummy’,” I shouted. There’s Bevo Miller — we must be late.” 141 All three of us hurried into the hall in time to find the staid and somber clerk Dr Michael Cu- ozzq, calling the roll Alabama.” Here 5 Immediately a hubbub arose and when Pres- ident Mattingly had finally quieted it down, it was found that there were no delegates from Ala- bama but Dr Ay bar had merely answered as usual the first name on the roll Someone thrust a program into my hands, but before I could open it an insistent voice demanded ' Two dollars, please,” I looked up to see Dr. Amos Andy Jarvis Since you’re an old classmate of mine ’ he said, PIl let you have two programs for 03 99 ' Having disposed of him adequately, I leafed over the first page of my program and saw the plastic countenance of Dr. Charles Troll Carroll staring at me from the center of a tooth-paste advertisement, which bore the legend, How Smiles and Sepsident Have Won Me Fame. Did you ever use one of these?” asked my neighbor on the right, pointing to an ad- vertisement reading, Dr, Dengler’s Multiple Underliner — -will underline 100 pages of any medical textbook in one hour,” They tell me 1 added my neighbor, that this chap Dengler has invented this underliner to help him in his work.” What is his work? 55 ' Why don’t you know? He intends to read every book in the Surgeon GeneraPs Library be lore he begins to practice medicine. He has gotten as far as the sex books but has had to stop there, because Doctor Caprio has a corner on them all and won’t give them up The Librarian, Col, Arthur Smiscal, had a lot of trouble over it- — so Dr. Eisenberg, the Chief Translator down there was telling me,” ' How interesting!” I murmured; but my attention had already been caught by die start- ling announcement on the next page: Crow the r’s Concentrated Cracked Corpus Spongiosum Troches — To be used in cases of Som- nambulism, Masochichism Orthogyrinesia, Dysdia- dochokinesis or Plain Constipation.” Making a mental note of this marvellous rem- edy, I turned to the book notices, and read: A Complete System of Gynecology, or All I Know about Women by Dr. G. P, Wyman beau- ti fully illustrated by that incomparable artist of w ' omanhood, Armadeo Vincente-Mastellari.” ' Personality and Success, by Joseph lohn Nicosia M.D 5 Go West, Young Man, by Dr. A. F, Heath.” Looking at the Patient with a Telescope and Treating Himwith a Shotgun, by Dr. Philip D’Ambola 5 ' The Sex Cycle of the Female Erythrocyte in Porto Rico, by Doctors Fernandez and Rojas ” - 4 142 The President, who had spent all his time ad- justing a cgarette daintily on his ten- foot holder, now called on the Chairman of the Program Com- mittee, Doctor Maurice M, Sehreiber, who an- nounced loftily that he had a varied program for the opening day. After considerable difficulty, he said, he had enticed the reticent Hon, Vernon B, Beam of Canada to speak on, -Why Canada Has No 18th Amendment,” to be answered by Dr. Win. H. Clements, on Dry Humor.” The next speaker was to be Dr. Zilch” Camp- bell on, God Help the Medical Profession, for the Public Won ' t,” A personal reminiscence followed— Dr, Bur- hidge on ' Diseases I have Had,” Next a debate on Resolved, that I should get all the money I can, in all the ways I can, from all the people I can,” the affirmative being upheld by Drs, Campus and Gary, with Drs. Fortgang and Dowling defending the negative. For a diversion the next number was a Song and Dance Act by the Vodvil Doctors”, Let of sky and Pet rap in to. Then came talks on The Importance of Music in Medical Education” by Drs. S. J. Rosenberg and A. D. Cooper, followed by another on the Perils of Ambulance-Riding”, by Dr. Call Calandrella, Then Dr. Rough” Diamond would be called on to give the address of the day, The Technique of Human Experimentation,” Several delegates in the front row were assiduously scribbling all this down. I recognized them as Drs. Henson, Weitzman, Greenburg, Segaul and Maggio. Are they reporters?” I asked my omniscient neighbor, Oh, no, they are just taking that down in order to memorize it. See that fellow there,” and he pointed to the smiling countenance of Dr. Sammy Breslow r . He’s the reporter. He ' s not paying any attention to what’s going on, hut hell have a full story in the paper tomorrow.” The Hon, V. B. Beam began to talk, but after he had changed color several times for each word he uttered, I decided to go visit the various sections. I made my way out with some difficulty, almost stumbling over Dr, LeHew, who was asleep by the door. The Section on Medicine was wsll filled to at- tend a case demonstration by the D” Clinic (Drs. DiFino, DiLorenzo and DiStephano) . Professor Di Stephana had just finished his demonstration and had stepped back to be questioned closely by Dr. Ershler of the Mayo Clinic when a voice broke forth, I think the patient is cross-eyed, crazy, and has fiat feet” — a brilliant diagnosis which I iden- tified as coming from Dr. Irving Friedman. Dr. Culpepper next stated that, with the co- operation of Radio Announcer Purpura, he had arranged a radio hook-up to transmit to the Con- vention the heartbeats of certain senoritas of Mexico whom he had been studying. I heard Drs, Cardona and Sichi grumble to each other that they preferred to study those hearts at closer range, and being of the same opinion, I followed them out. 143 fc- Outside I me: the great proctologists, Drs, Schubert and Lewis, who shook hands w ' ith me and modestly confessed that they had gotten their start in proctology by rushing the boys in front of Old 1335 H.” In the Psychiatric Section Dr. Casey was giv- ing a talk on, Nuts and How to Grow Them.” I did not stay long. In the Laboratory Section I heard most of a talk on The Value of a Medical Education in the coat, and then I knew it was Dr. Joan McGreevy, In the Gynecological Section Dr. S. M. Miller spoke on, Through the Fallopian Tubes on a Bicycle, and Dr. Martone on The Use of Canes as Sounds.” The Section on Dietetics was my last port of calk Dr. M + M. Boyer gave an excellent dissertation on, How White Milk From a Brown Cow Eating Green Grass Makes Pink Cheeks and Blue Eyes.” Dr. Bugle” Kossow spoke on, The Administration of Raw Eggs Parenterallv.” Dr. Carotenuto spoke on, Carrots — my favorite.” Most amazing of all was a talk by Dr. Dorothy Lee Scarborough telling us how to make children quiet and mild-mannered by a diet of platinum and iridium. After a long day of such elevating clinics and lectures, I finally wandered back to the hotel. In one of the smoking-rooms I found an uproarious poker game in progress, and who should be the participants but my bid friends, Doctors Jacobson, Seckler, Slipyan, Vardebe- dian, Mollica and Fox. What ' s the matter wit ' i you fellows,” I cried. Aren ' t you going to the Convention?” While I had been speaking, Dr. Weber, who had been asleep in a corner, began to stir. When I Lirterd the las: words, he opened one eye and murmured, What Convention?”-— and then dropped off to sleep again. Training of a Technician.” I did not recognize the speaker until I saw r that she wore a white lab” 4 H4 THE MEDICAL SCHOOL OF THE FUTURE In keeping with the theme of this year ' s Cherry Tree, The University of the Future, ' we of the Senior Class are presenting our idea of the Future Medical School. This school’s greatness will he measured, not by its marble columns nor frescoed walls, but by its spacious laboratories, amphitheatres and lecture -halls, so necessary to the training of the modern doctor. The true worth of this school, however, will be found in its teachers — men of serious pur- pose, of untiring ambition, of unquestioned ability, and, above all, of high ideals; devoting their entire time and all of their energies to the interests of the University and its students. These men’s work will serve as an inspiration to all who work under them. Through their associations in the operating rooms, the wards ,the dispensary and in the home’s of the city’s poor, these teachers will become conversant with all aspects of the practice of medicine, and thus further their common aim — the Uplifting of Medical Science and the Betterment of Mankind. Sir William Osier said that it is the function of a University to teach men to think Thus it will be that this School will include a group of men whose function it will be to reach afar into the Fields of Research and unfold for us those many elusive Truths that have thus far evaded the searching eyes of men. Major changes in the curriculum will include the addition of new subjects and a flexibil- ity in the program of study. Such subjects as Anatomy, Physiology, Biochemistry and Path- ology will be required. Beyond this, the student ' s course will be builded upon the basis of bis future specialty — subject to the advice and guidance of the head of that department, himself a prominent specialist. As old as the everlasting hills are the two subjects which will certainly be added to the curriculum — Psychology and Economics. Learning the basic principles of Psychology in his first year, the student will then be taught to apply them, in their various shadings and modi- fications, not only to the tangled skeins of Psychiatry, but also to the frazzled threads of every- day existence. The neophyte in medicine will also be taught Medical Economics. He will — especially if he is to become a general practitioner or help maintain a group clinic — to use the homely phrase, learn on which side his bread is buttered.” He will learn how to manage an office, to buy supplies, to send out bills, and to take the proper steps to collect them. There will be no examinations in the Future Medical School — at least no formal written examinations of the present type. Instead, at the end of his four year ' s training, the student will be required to spend one month in the wards and dispensary of the hospital. There, under close supervision, he will meet patients, diagnose and treat them, and if he does this tactfully, sensibly and willingly, he will be given his license to practice in any part of the Globe. And all men will learn to respect, and all hearts to Jove, this Ideal Physician from the Medical School of the Future. 145 146 .ILih — ll.-_. jaU — lU -Hi- .HT JU :Lu ”7 m r PROPHYLACTIC HORSEPISTOL HISTORY AND PHYSICAL EXAMINATION Chief Complaint: That ' s for you to find out, doctor, History of Present Illness: Patient ace cherry pie two years ago and suddenly remem- be red seven days ago that she forgot to take out the seeds. One day later, developed pain in left little toe, and something which to the writer seems to be a pain in the neck. Then her hair stood on end, she vomited three times, winked her left eye, turned a complete somersault and produced an 11 -month fetus. No dyspnea except after an argument with her husband; palpitation at times when she sees Ramon Novarro in the movies. No swelling of feet, but slight swelling of left ear. Nose runs sometimes, but not far; tonsils taken out twice and ready again. Past History: Had the usual childhood diseases (i.e., Kala Azar, Tsutsugamuchi Fever, Splenic Anemia and Rat-bite Fever) . Operation at 5 years for cancer of Meckel ' s diverticu- lum. Had ischeal furuncle following girl-scout initiation. Married at 24; grav. 3 — and then learned what it was all about. Had two tapeworms in lower sixth grade and three when in the eighth, so quit school. Wrist broken after the third worm was extracted. Family History: No evidence of Periostitis nodosa. Pick ' s Disease, Splenomegaly or Clubbing of Toes in family. Mother — living and well at 120. Father — certainly, she knows who he was. Doubtful history of actinomycosis in her third cousin ' s husband. PHYSICAL EXAMINATION Patient asleep, but awakened with the help of the nurse. Patient in lateral decubitus po- sition, sitting up. Looks as if she has gall-stones (fair, fat, forty and can ' t eat cabbage). Skin and Appencages: Wet and warm. Hair in the expected places. Nails tinted green. Head: O. K. on outside (ONLY). Chest: Right Jung sounds pathological. Left lung nearer normal but distant. Cardiovascular: Heart — beating. Blood pressure estimated at 7 11, but machine broken. Abdomen: Inspection — plenty fat. Palpitation — No liver; and spleen absent on percus- sion. Tenderness over appendix (if it were on left side). Percussion — Sounds like kettle drum. Auscultation-Sounds resembling stones clicking together over gall bladder. Nervous System: Patient is intelligent (as far as women go), oriented (although never been to China), and co-operative (very! she just loves these young doctors. ) Reflexes— -Knee- jerks, exaggerated; Babinski, not successful — patient too ticklish; Cremasteric, out of the question. Diagnosis: (1) Pseudocyesis; (2) Encephalosclerosis; (3) Chronic passive congestion. 147 K WHO’S WHO IN THE SENIOR CLASS (Decided by that grand old American custom— tbe ballot} Title First Choke Second Choice Most Popular Mattingly Dowling Best Looking Nicosia Culpepper Ladies’ Man Mohr Schubert Brightest - .... ... .Dowling Carroll Ershler Biggest Weasel .. .... _ ....

The purpose of this society is to provide opportunities for its members to participate in discussions of problems relating to their profession; to read papers on original scientific work; and to promote unity and friendly intercourse among graduates. Students of the Senior Class are invited to the meetings, and this year presented papers at the February meeting of the Society. Additional interest is stimulated by frequent invitation of guest speakers prom- inent in their fields. At the annual banquets the guest speakers are chosen from those en- joying international recognition in their fields. Last years speaker was Dr, George W. Grile of Cleveland, Ohio, This year’s speaker was Dr. Elliott P. Joslin of Boston, Massachusetts. 157 b HISTORY OF THE JUNIOR CLASS G enghiz Kahn, barbaric Mongol, who with his sons and grandsons planted his standard from Pekin in China co the Volga in deep Russia, first saw a seal in the hands of a cap- tured Ugar prince. Sensing the power of such a symbol, he at once had one fashioned for himself of green jade, inscribed: God in Heaven, the Kha Khan, the Power of God on Earth: the Seal of the Emperor of Mankind. We, too, have a seal and upon it is inscribed: God in Heaven, Friendship, the Power of God on Earth: the Seal of the Emperor of Mankind 1 Three years of contact under the same trials and difficulties, each of us aiding the other over the un level ground, have made us into one homogeneous group. Our one regret is that our school careers are slowly but surely coming to an end, and some of these friends will never see each othr again, for they go to far corners of these United States and its Dependencies— to the places whence they were hailed to learn the art of healing. At the present time we number sixty -one students, among whom are three young ladies — future pediatricians, no doubt To the male members they are our three sisters: Faith, Hope and Charity. We fear to mention which is which. Unlike so many others to whom a word of praise is their downfall, the Juniors are only spurred on to higher goals as each professor in turn declares, Never have I taught such a precocious class (Where have we heard that before? — Ed.) In closing, let me quote the words of our well-known friend, Mr, Webb: The Junior Class always conducts itself with dignity and decorum and applies itself with assiduity, alac- rity and precision; and if it continues to base all its actions on unalloyed courtesy and from now on if everything it does is exhibited by a spirit of humility, why some day it is going to rise to a pinnacle of fame and shout its triumphs in the ears of the world at its feet. In other words, no man is defeated until he vie Ids the citadel of his own will.” 4 158 MELISSA CHAMBERLAIN Assistant Superintendent of Nurses Graduated from G. W. U.

Bradley Dean William Paul Briggs Assistant Dean, Executive Officer HISTORY Ewald Witt Instructor in Pharmacy T HE origin and history of the George Washington University School of Pharmacy is one which we can look upon with pride. It was founded by a group of pharm wished to perpetuate the profession, to advance the scientific and material interests - maey, and to furnish better and more elaborate means for the education of young men embarking upon careers in this held It was through far seeing eyes, looking into the future, that these men saw when they took die necessary steps to found this school. For this we owe them a debt of gratitude and we hope that this school will long remain as a monument to their efforts. On July 15th, 1867, the members of the Apothecaries’ Association of the District of Columbia met and passed the following resolution: ' ' Resolved: That a committee be appointed by the chair, of which the President shall be one, to organize a College of Pharmacy in this city, and obtain a charter from Congress for the same.” The committee was appointed and work to organize and establish a College was 169 Thk Dispensing Laboratory of the School of Pharmacy started. In April. 1871, this group reorganized, forming the Columbia Pharmaceutical Asso- ciation of the District of Columbia At this rime the Congress of the United States granted a charter under the provision of an act of Congress for the incorporation of institutions of learning etc. The organization then disbanded again and reorganized as The National College of Pharmacy of Washington D. C ’ In November, on the 11th, 1872, the doors of the school were thrown open for the benefit of all desiring to enter. Many well known and prominent Pharmacists have held the President ' s chair of the National College of Pharmacy. Dr. William S. Thompson was the first President, his term of office running from 1872 to 74. Following him were sixteen other men, the last being Dr. Henry E. Kalusowski, 1903 to ' 06, Dr. Kalusowski had been associated with the College for many years prior to his appointment to the President ' s chair. He held the Chair of Theory and Practice of Pharmacy from 1881 to ' 93 and from 1903 to the time of his death in 1926, The College was located in a large and commodious building of its own from 1888 to its change to its present location. This building is a well known landmark located at 808 I Street N. W., and stood for many yeats as the Alma Mater” of many prominent Wash- ington Pharmacists. In 1906 the National College of Pharmacy became affiliated with the George Washington University and at that time became a part of its educational system. Coincident with its affiliation the name of the school was changed to The George Washington University Na- tional CoILge of Pharmacy.” With Dr. Kalusowski in charge under the supervision of the President of the University, the school ran smoothly on for many years, until the advent of the World War. From this time there was a general decline in the school ' s attendance and the professors left one by one until only Dr Kalusowski remained. He made a heroic attempt to bring the school back to normal, but his untimely death in 1926 brought his efforts to a dose Havoc reigned for about two years, but with the 1928-29 session there emerged into the limelight Dr. William Paul Briggs, whose gallant efforts, with the aid of our Dean, Dr, Louis F. Bradley, brought the school from the depths of disorder to its present condition, a grade A school of Pharmacy, with modern laboratories and equipment and with facilities that far exceed those enjoyed by any other School of Pharmacy in the country To Dr. William Paul Briggs, now Assistant Dean of the College, who made possible the present standing of our school, we dedicate this section. He has the undying gratitude of this class of 1931, who have seen the school moulded from a shapeless mass by his hands to its present condition of order and discipline, and may his efforts in the future be crowned with success, giving us a still finer College of Pharmacy 1 4 170 Edward j.

H., and as the ten-minute bell rang filed noisily into the class- room. Here this group of freshmen received their initial introduction into the realm of Phar- macy. They listened intently as their work was outlined for them and wondered how they could accomplish so much. In February, 1929, there emerged from this same room a group of bright-eyed, bright- faced students, with mouths set and chins determinedly raised. They had encountered the Demon Pharmacy” and had come out unscathed from their first tilt with him. Spring came, with the urge to play and lay aside worldly cares, but the boys struggled on. Summer, then June, and exams. Again the portals of this fateful room opened and again a yet smaller group of students emerged. They radiated with the light of success. Their second encounter with the Demon” had been successful. Summer passed; September, 1929, came. And what a sight met their eyes. A building, a school of their own. Modern equipment, laboratories, and their own classrooms. With light hearts they entered and the doors dosed behind them. What noises, what disturbances? Ah, only friendly competition between the upper and lower classes in football, and general sports. This class of Sophomores triumphed. They were impregnable. And what is that? They have organized. They have founded the Mor- tar and Pestle Society” and are planning great things. But now January is here and the heretofore distant rumble has grown into a roar, and lo, the storm is upon them. Are they so impregnable? The Demon” has called, has taken his toll. The doors open, there they are, unharmed, happy, with only a few missing from the ranks. Spring is just around the comer. There are signs of gaiety, music, speeches. A banquet, given by the Mortar and Pestle Society” in honor of the faculty. Baseball is upon us, intra- mural sports. Games, good times, and work. But the clouds are gathering. Again they are encompassed by the storm. The Demon” strikes. The clouds clear away. The doors swing open. They file out, silently, slowly. The mortality was high. The Demon’s” mark is left upon them. But they are determined. Summer, vacation, is upon them. They scatter, only to meet again in the fall. The big year, their year, is here. The doors take them in once more and close behind them. Muffled sounds, noises. Bugs, bacteria, synthesis, prescriptions, first aid, post mortems. The final fight is on. January arrives. Exams. Another encounter with the Demon.” His fury is terrible. Few escape. But the conquerors travel on. Into the spring with pleasures, sorrows, and work, June. They have outfought the Demon.” He passes by the way. No more will he molest them. Sheepskins, the joy their lives. They are out, free from the toils of labor, successful in their endeavors, and a credit to their school. Soon will be for- gotten their trials and tribulations, but ever will they cherish the memory of their Alma Mater.” 173 The Class of 1932 of the School of Pharmacy Top Line Afgjjgifby, S. Levin, Popluclei , SflYan Sccpiui Line- Hfium. Series. Smvser, [lofUerg, 1). Levin HISTORY OF THE SECOND YEAR CLASS T ROM scattered parts of the globe came the men and women who comprise the class of 1932. Contributions were made to this class by Siam, Panama, Ireland, and Brazil, as well as by Utah, New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Maryland, and the District. Never before has so unique a group of kindred spirits gathered within these haughty halls of ours. There is Sister St. Henry, who is preparing herself tor the position of Pharmacist in the dispensary of the Georgetown University Hospital. Sister Harley, direct from Ireland, hold- ing a B, S. C. degree and seeking further enlightenment in the field of Pharmacy. Sister Harley is a member of the Society of Catholic Medical Missions’ of Brookland, D. C., and is preparing herself for dispensing work in the ”HoIy Family Hospital” at Rawalpindi, Punjab, N, India, where she will go upon receiving her degree in Pharmacy. Sister Harley is to be congratulated upon her excellent work as she is graduating with the class of 31, The boys” have various pursuits in mind covering research work, teaching, Commercial Pharmacy, and Medicine. Gabriel Sosa, of Panama, and Thong Dee of Siam, intend to enter the gov- ernment service w r ork of their respective countries. During the first year in school the extra curricular activities of the class was rather lim- ited due to the heavy schedules they were fated to carry. However, they found time to lick the other classes in football and basketball. Following the lead of the Senior class, they or- ganized and elected class officers and a class representative, which has enabled them to estab- lish themselves firmly as an integral part of the school. 4 174 The Class of 1933 of the School of Pharmacy f op Lino — Koutsoukos, Schneider, Keahey Sooond Lino- athanson, Butler. Chamberlain HISTORY OF THE FIRST YEAR CLASS W E, the freshman class, early in the fall of this year, gathered for the first time in the halls of the School of Pharmacy. We were not bewildered so much by the immensity of the corridors as we were by the curriculum that was imposed upon us. After the first few days we began to feel as though we were a part of the school and that each student had an interest in each of the others, as they were striving for the same goal in spite of the fact that they were from various parts of the country. Ches. Chamberlain hails from Skalheegan, Maine, and Jimmie Edmonston arrived from the Shenandoah Valley. The class boasts of the Big Man from the South,” Bill Keahey, who blew in from old Alabama, and also of its brilliant student, Benny Goldman, who carries an A.B. degree. Of course, our class is noted for Kris Koutsoukos, who is proficient in getting out of trouble with the ' Profs.” Sid Nathanson expects to open a chain of drug stores his first year out of college. Sam Pearlstein is the optimist of the class and last but not least is the sailor, without which no class could be complete. This honor goes to Louise Northrop, who upholds the traditions. Class work started and we all were infected with the spirit to raise the standards of Pharmacy to even higher levels. Class officers were soon elected. Milton Butler, who is spe- cializing in feminology, was elected President. Ches. Chamberlain was the choice for Vice- President, and the Secretary-Treasure ship went to James Edmonston, We are ending this first year with only a few r casualties and we hope that every one will be here to graduate in 1933. 175 ■ P LANS for the erection of the American Institute of Pharmacy are fast being brought to a close Negotiations for the land on which this building is to stand have already been completed and there remains only the breaking of the ground to start the building that has long been the dream of Pharmacists all over the United States. John Russell Pope, well-known architect, has drawn up the plans for the proposed build- ing and it promises to be one of tbe most beautiful buildings of its type in the United States. Under its roof will gather the most important bodies associated with Pharmacy, including the executive offices of the American Pharmaceutical Association, the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy, the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy, the Committee on National Formulary, and others of this character. The building will also contain research laboratories for working out the problems relative to the interests of the profession. Here will gather the cream of the profession, forming a nucleus about which will function tbe vari- ous interests associated with Pharmacy, giving to it a sense of orderliness and unity never before known, and without a doubt will propel it to heights of scientific attainment never before reached in this field.

Already, in the two years that have elapsed since our present coaching staff was installed, the calibre of our teams has improved and the records are more pleasing to consider. And in addition to this our teams have gone forth to carry our banner in inter- collegiate competition within distant sections of our country where our name has been here to fore unknown. So it becomes easy to visualize in the near future athletes representing George Wash- ington traveling across the continent to engage in competition with men from other great universities. Yet in all of our progress we must remember that success is due largely to the efforts of Coach PixleCj so ably assisted by Leo Walsh, Jean Sexton and Max Farrington, 249 b VARSITY FOOTBALL T HE 1930 season of the George Washington University football team was successful, particularly w ' hen compared with the previous season in which the Colonial team did not win a single game. G. W., with four victories, four defeats and one tie for a five hundred percent average, had the best record of any local collegiate team, due largely to the efforts of Head Coach Pixlee, who was ably assisted by Coach Walsh. Notable victories were scored over Catholic University and New York Agricultural College, while the battles with Tulsa and Navy were valiant tussles, though ending in defeat. The Colonials opened the season against the powerful and experienced Rutgers eleven. In this game die Buff and Blue aggregation showed its lack of experience, and although it out-played the New Brunswick team in the second half, its efforts fell short of gaining vic- tory, Kriemelmeyer’s punting w f as the bright spot in the play of G. W. In the second contest, the Hatchetites brought home a victory over the light Delaware team. However, due to a lack of punch b ythe G. W. squad the 9 -to- 6 victory was decidedly too small a margin. Mulvey and Kriemelmeyer were outstanding in their play. South Dakota battled G. W. to a scoreless tie in a game played under adverse weather conditions, but replete with thrills for the spectators. The Colonials outplayed their oppo- nents, carrying the ball most of the time, but failed to take advantage of numerous opportu- nities to score. Three ti mes the G. W. machine fought its way to within ten yards of the Coyotes 7 goal line amid frantic cheering of more than seven thousand spectators but each time a mere mishap deprived Coach Pixlee of a score, Kriemelmeyer played a fine game, being a very consistent ground gainer. In the next game the Buff and Blue team gained its first impressive victory in two years by defeating Dickinson, 27-6. The victory was especially significant since the Colonial outfit was defeated 7 to 6 in 1929 by the Quaker State team. The G. W. squad was far superior to the Pennsylvanians and virtually the entire squad saw action. Mulvey, Wells, Carter, Carlin and Kriemelmeyer starred in this contest. Taking the longest trip ever made by a George Washington team, the Colonials went out to Oklahoma to encounter Tulsa U. Although they were defeated 14-6, the Hatchetites played the best game of the year against the Westerners, who, incidentally, went through their season without defeat, G, W s lone touchdowm w r as the result of a pass from Wells to Carter, 4 250 Playing at home, the G W griddets massacred the woefully weak New York Aggies, 86-0, and sent hopes for the future soaring in the greatest grid victory in the history of the school or ar least since 1908, when Maryland was trounced, 77-0 The entire squad took part in the fracas, hut several regulars received injuries which later proved costly. Going to Reading, Pennsylvania, the Buff and Blue players received a terrific jolt at the hands of the strong Albright team bowing to a 33-0 defeat. The Colonials failed to click and were outplayed and dazzled by the aerial attack of the Miners Some little consolation was found in the fact that later in the season Albright tied the powerful Western Maryland team who, heretofore, had not been tied or defeated. The crucial game on the George Washington schedule was the Catholic University con- test. The Colonials downed the Cardinals in a terrific up-hill fight with the score of 18 to 13, thereby gaining their first victory over the Brooklanders since 1924. In view of the fact that this game was the concluding one in the series of traditional battles with C. U., it was par- ticularly fortunate that a G. W. victory resulted Fenlon was the star of the game, scoring the winning touchdown by a 45 -yard run to the right side of the Cardinal line. Hale played a heroic role finishing the game with a broken elbow. The season was brought to a close when the Naval Academy team was played at Annap- olis The first half was scoreless but G. W. was handicapped by lack of reserves and weak- ened in the second half before the onslaught of a fresh Navy team thereby going down to a 20-to-O defeat. Johnny Fenlon starred on the offense while Mulvey and Galloway out- played their midshipmen opponents A large group of rooters supported the Colonials and found the game of decided interest when the Washington team showed such surprising strength against a team of the calibre of Navy. Looking into the future — Coach Pixlee has arranged a most interesting and unusually strenuous schedule. During the 1931 season a number of first-class reams will be encountered including Iowa U., Tulsa, North Dakota, Boston U. and Butler. Two of these intersectional contests will require Coach Pixlee and his squad to travel several thousand miles and will spread the name of George Washington across sport pages from the Atlantic to the Rockies. Negotiations are also already under way for the 1932 season during which George Washing- ton will play some of the greatest teams in the country as part of the Bicentennial Exposition. 251 Varsity Football Squad Stnudiu f Hanhack.

In this game with the Panthers, the Colonial Freshmen failed to get started until the second half, thereby coming out on the short end of a 19 to 6 score The next two contests found the Buff and Blue Frosh emerging victorious from the fray Massanutten was swamped on its home field, 31 to 0, while Citadel was also beaten, 12 to 0, in a well-played game. Fours, Florence, Nixon, and Durbeshire showed to advantage in both battles. On two successive Saturdays the Hatchetites fell before their opponents’ attack, St John’s B ’ squad displayed a dazzling aerial attack and a number of trick plays to garner a 20 to 7 score. Even more disastrous was the loss to the Catholic University Freshmen who outplayed the Colonials to gain a 23 to 6 victory. Hickman and Fours did well for the Cubs In the final game of the season on Thanksgiving Day, the Freshmen played an excellent defensive game against the Naval Academy B” squad. However, after they had held the Midshipmen scoreless in the. first half, the G. W. Frosh weakened in the second half and were submerged in a 23-to-0 defear. 4 254 G„ W.

The team won 1 1 games and lost only % gaining outstanding victories over Vi 11a nova and St. John’s and losing to Navy by a score of 42 to 38. Although most of last year’s varsity was lost, their places were very ably filled by jack Conner, Forrest Burgess, Arthur Zahn, and Fred Mulvey of last year s fresh, with the addition of Johnny Fenlon and Wayne Chambers, two of the football stars of this year s team. The season opened in the home gym with a victory over Shenandoah in which Conner, Burgess and Zahn were the outstanding players. The second game also found the Colonials on the long end of a 30 to 18 score, with Baltimore U. only once on even terms throughout the evening. After emerging victorious from their first two con- tests, the Bull and Blue journeyed to Annapolis, de- termined to sink the Navy. There was quite a con- trast to the past Navy games and the Midshipmen soon realized that they were in for a real battle. The work of Chambers, Conner and Burgess kept George Washington on nearly equal terms until the second half, when Loughlin, the Navy ace, rang up nine points in succession and finally gave the Middies a four-point victory with a score of 42 to 38, The next two games were played in Philadelphia, The contest with Villanova gave G. W. a 31 to 29 victory, due to accurate foul shooting and the efforts of Conner and Burgess. On the following evening, Drexel was downed, 47 to 23, Zahn and Burgess being big guns in the fracas. With four out of five games in the bag, the Co- lonial five journeyed to Brookland to encounter the Catholic University tossers and met an unexpected de- feat, largely due to poor shooting and their inability to penetrate the Cardinal defense. 4 258 Resuming their early season form, George Wash- ington, on a trip in Virginia, trounced Randolph- Macon to the tune of 46 to 38 and scored over Vir- ginia Medical College, 44 to 27. Burgess and Con- ner led the attack against Randolph -Macon, while Zahn was the brilliant light against the Medicos. In the next contest, the Colonial tossers had as their guests the five from Elon College, who managed to upset the dope for the Buff and Blue by landing on the large end of a 26 to 23 score. This battle was a nip and tuck affair, with G. W. losing through its failure to take advantage of its chan res to register from the foul line. Just before mid-year exams, George Washington staged a return battle with Randolph- Macon, which proved to be one of the thrillers of the season by going into two extra periods. Burgess, Fenlon and Chambers came through with baskets to give G. W. the victory in che second overtime period after Zahn and Conner had kept the score equal. Led by the flashy attack of Burgess, the Buff and Blue tossers pulled up from behind to down the Wake Forest courtmen in the next game, thereby chalking up their eighth victory. In the following contest, the crack Rider five proved to be a thorn in the side of the Colonial courtmen. George Washington suffered in this game by not taking advantage of foul shots. Chambers showed up well, while the work of Burgess and Zahn kept the Hatchetites in the running until the closing minutes when Rider was able to come out on the long end of a 28 to 20 score. In two contests in succession played with St. John’s of Annapolis, the Buff and Blue quintet crashed through w r ith victories, winning the first game at home 30 to 26 and the second game away, 33 to 23. Zahn, Burgess and Chambers performed cred- itably in these games, with the whole team playing in good form. The season was brought to an early conclusion when Catholic University cancelled the final game. In the final games the Colonials got an even break, beating Virginia Medicos, 33 to 33, and losing to Drexel, 31 to 29, with Zahn and Fenlon providing most of the action for the home team. 259 R- Freshman Basketball Squad Front Ron Farhorifc.

With Coach Len Walsh directing, the team not only distinguished itself as a whole, but developed a number of men who may be looked to for varsity victories in games of the future. Among these men, the most outstanding were Fours, Robey, Hickman, Brown, Woodward, Cordova, and O Iverson.

With four of last years varsity marksmen back, a team has been built up which gave promise of going through its intercollegiate competition without defeat, although it was outranked in its first match — that with G, W. Alumni, In this match the scores were identical, but the alumni excelled in the standing position, thus gaming the victory. Captain William Barr, a medical student, and Henry Boudinot are two excellent shots, who have been con- sistently chalking up high scores. In the Varsity- Alumni match Barr shot the highest score ever made on a George Washington varsity team, that of 287, The previous high mark was 286. shot by Coach Parsons when he was competing for George Washington in 1926 against Navy. However, Barr clinched the highest of honors by winning the National Individual Intercollegiate Championship with a score of 576 out of 600, while Boudmot and Jackson lived up to expectations by getting fourth and eighth places, respectively, in the same competition. Dudley And and Harry Me leer are also counted upon to uphold the high standard set by the squad this year. In the year 1927-28 George Washington University won the Intercollegiate Team Cham- pionship. Not a single member of the previous year’s squad returned in 1928-29, and as a result, the team placed thirteenth. Last year two varsity men returned, and the Colonial rifle- men finished in sixth place. This year there were four of last year’s lettermen back and the team seemed slated to place in the high three.

W.” Club. This club had been organized with national standing as its goal and, by hard work on the part of these girls, the goal has been reached. The W. A. A. is an active, responsible organization, working to further student participation in, and control of athletics. Eligibility for membership is based on participation in athletics to the extent of making one s class team or by becoming the manager or assistant manager of a sport offered by the Physical Education Department. In exceptional cases, membership may be granted by vote of the Executive Board. At the beginning of the school year, the association formulates its policy for the coming year and these specific aims as well as the national aims of the organization become the responsibility of the Executive Board and of the association. This year, the W. A. A. has sponsored many soda! activities. Three banquets, one at the end of each season of sports, have been held at which awards have been presented to those girls who have earned them during the past season. A hobo party was the form chosen for the annual party for freshmen women. The association also presented Miss Gertrude Prok- Qsch in an interpretive dance recital at the Arts Club. The success of all of these enterprises was very encouraging to the association and shows something of the work it is doing. 266 Top Line Grosvenor Hill, Kagiit. Warirtn, Me Call uni.

V- Smith, Donnelly Weaver THE EXECUTIVE BOARD OF THE WOMEN’S ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION T HE Executive Board of the Women’s Athletic Association is composed of the officers elected b y the association, the publicity manager, and the managers of all of the sports. It is this group which formulates the rules under which the sports are organized. The Di- rector of Physical Education, the instructors in the department and the Secretary of Women’s Activities act as advisory members of the board. The members of the board are Roberta Wright, president; Mary Hudson, vice-president; Louise James, secretary; Grace White, treasurer; Inge von Lewinski, publicity manager; Kath- erine McCallum, manager of basketball; Edith Brookhart, manager of swimming; Eloise Lindsay, manager of hockey; Jane Hill, manager of soccer; Carol Simpson, manager of incra- murals; Mary-Virginia Smith, manager of golf; Ruth Warren, manager of track, Stacta Donnelly, manager of archery, and Jean Fugitt, manager of baseball. This year, the board has sponsored play-days with the district high schools and with other college groups as well as having directed all of the other activities of the association throughout a most successful year. The Women’s Athletic Association has from its first organization been a hard-working conscientious group with ideals to work for and a determination to gain the best for the bene- fit of the most. This policy is a worthy one, which will doubtless guarantee its continued existence and fulfill the faith that has been placed in it as a representative group of able college women. 267 HOCKEY I nter-class games were the center of attraction for the hockey season last fall. Under the new athletic system, all varsity competition has given way to inter-class and intra -mural games In the inter-class tournament, there were three teams — Freshman, Sophomore and a combined Junior-Senior team. About forty people came out for the various teams. The Junior-Senior team won the tournament, triumphing over both Freshmen and Sophomores. Class numerals were awarded the members of this team. At the end of the season, an honorary varsity team was picked. Of these girls, Kath- erine McCall urn, Martha Benenson, and Judith Wood were awarded major letters in rec- ognition of their outstanding work. The others, Louise Linkms, Louise James, Florence Hedges. Helen Chafce, Eloise Lindsay, Elizabeth Morrow, and Inge von Lewinski received minor awards. A large group of the girls out for hockey participated in the sports day with American University, and G. W, was also represented at the Inter-sectional Hockey Tournament which was held at William and Mary College in the fall. The events of the season were under the guidance of Eloise Lindsay, manager; Helen Hall, and Dorothy Heflebower, assistant managers. Eloise Lindsay Manager 268 BASKETBALL I N accordance with the new system under which the Physical Education Department is working, there was no varsity competition in basketball this year. The first season using the new plan was most successful. An Inter-class Tournament was the center of basketball activity. From the original class teams, there were chosen two combination teams— Fresh- man-Jumor and Sophomore-Senior. These teams played in the Odd-Even game, after which an honorary varsity was chosen from the most outstanding players. These girls received major or minor letters, according to their ability. A Play Day was held at Hood College on February 7 with Gaucher and Hood Colleges. Six class teams were taken from George Washington. On February 28, there was a Play Day at the Wilson Normal School in which George Washington, American University and Wilson Normal participated. A number of the girls majoring in Physical Education have taken the Referee ' s examina- tion, both written and demonstration, which is sponsored by the National Basketball Commit- tee.

Altogether, over ninety people came out for the sport this year. Matches of all sorts were arranged and carried out by Miss Helen Lawrence, coach; Jane Hill, man- ager, and the assistant managers- — Louise James, Christine Spignul and Bessie Buchanan, The inter-class games attracted, perhaps, the most attention. The Junior team, consist ing of Louise James, Helen Hall, Sarah Casteel, Neva Ewin, Martha Buchanan, Mary Ma- nilla, Helen Haves, Frances Kahn, Etta Weaver, Katherine McCallum and Janice Hyatt, won the championship by defeating the Sophomores, 2 to 0. These girls were awarded their class numerals. Class captains were Neva Ewin, Junior; Edith Brookhart, Sophomore; Julia Fick, Freshman. Several intra mural games were played whose scores were not recorded. On November 20, the Shin Kickers defeated the Wrecking Crew, 2 to 1 ; and on November 24 , the Creeping Crickets tied score with the aSnd Fleas, 1 to L After the season officially closed on November 21. there was a special game in connection with the sports day with American University, The score was tied, 0 to 0, On December 4, a play day with the Maryland University girls was held at which Miss Ball, of Mary- land, was hostess. Many girls from George Washington attended. Jane Hill Manager ■4 270 Marion Lum M anager TENNIS T HE spring of 1930 saw another successful season for our record-breaking tennis team. With such old standbys as Mary Detwiler, Jenny Turnbull and Mary Sproul still with them and such new material as Alice Mayo and Judith Fishburn, the team made a splendid showing wherever they played. With varsity competition eliminated from this sport as well as others, tournaments of various sorts are the order of the day here as elsewhere. The fall tournament brought out a large number of girls and many of the matches called attention to the great amount of material at hand. In the semi-finals, Katherine Wasserman won from Katherine McCallum with scores of 6-1 and 6-2; Marian Butler defeated Marian Lum with scores of 6-4 and 6-2. Marian Butler was the final champion of the tournament, beating Katherine Wasserman in the finals, 6-2 and 6-4. In the fall intra-mural tennis tournament, Alpha Epsilon Phi was the winner with Kappa Delta running a close second. Inter-class and Intra mural tournaments are scheduled for the spring season. It is hoped that many girls who heretofore have not been out for tennis, perhaps because of their hesi- tancy to try for the varsity team, will come out and show their ability in tennis by playing just for p!ay s sake.” 271 h VARSITY RIFLE SCORES 1930 G + W. u + 497 University of Pennsylvania 476 G. w + u. 493 Cornell 478 G. w. u. 495 Drexel 46“ G. w. u. 492 Penn State ... 480 G. w. u. 596 Maryland University 595 G. w. u. 595 Carneate _ __ 490 G. w. u. 494 University of Washington 495 1931 G. w. u. 496 Louisiana State 472 G. w. u 491 Alumni 493 G. w. u .... . „ ......

This is the fourth consecutive ear that our team has won this match. Not only is the team known in this country as the national champions but pictures of the George Washington girls have been shown in Mexico, Canada and Paris. The team has even broken into the Talkies! This winter, the Fox Movietone took talking pictures of the team in all of its activities, even to Bertie W right’s shooting her usual perfect score. The varsity team this year is under the tutelage of Helen Taylor, a former member of the team. Dr. Walter Stokes has also been of very great help to them again this year. Dr, Stokes, former Olympic champion and an internationally-known nfle shot, was instrumental n establishing the Women’s Rifle Team and has aided them greatly in attaining their high position during past years. A beginner’s match was held in February in which May Beattie shot the highest score and Ruth White the second highest. The members of the varsity rifle squad are Roberta Wright, captain; Indea Bell Corea, manager; Evelyn Johnson, Elmira Johnson, Kitty Lane, Marie Clark, Virginia Sheffield, Jo Ravsor, Caroline Siebert and Lois Corea. The assistant managers are Pauline Schaub, Evelyn Kerr, Annabel McCullough, Helen Moudy and Helen Chafee. At the end of the season, the assistant manager whose work has been most satisfactory will be awarded her class numerals. 273 b INTRA MURAL SPORTS A FTER their introduction last year, intra-murals really got under way this year. The whole affair is under the direction of a manager, an assistant manager and a board whose mem- bership consists of one delegate from each of the organizations concerned. One intra-mural match is planned for each month. In the tennis contest in October, Alpha Epsilon Phi won over Kappa Delta in the final march. In November, Kappa Kappa Gamma won over Alpha Delta Pi in the finals of the bowling match with a total score of 356 to 324 In the December teniquoits match. Alpha Delta Pi proved victorious over Kappa Kappa Gamma with scores of 15 to 12 and 16 to 14 February saw a heated ping-pong en- gagement in W 10 in which Pi Phi were the winners Volley ball, swimming, and tennis matches make tip the program for the rest of the year. Interest in mtra -murals is increasing all of the time. It is here that girls who for some reason are not in varsity sports have a chance to show their ability. People who otherwise have not shown any interest in athletics come out for intra-murals if for no other reason than to help their organizations. This method of dealing with athletics has completely replaced the old inter-sorority competiiton but has in no way lessened the interest of the Greek groups in it. The main difference is that non- fraternity groups can also enter teams m intra-mural matches The events of the year are ended up with a picnic or some other suitable social affair to which any girl who has taken part in any intra-mural match is invited The Intra mural Placque is awarded the group which has made the most points during the year. Suitable points are awarded the winner and the runner-up of each match This coveted prize has the name of the winner, together with the date engraved on it and is kept by the winner until the next award the following spring. Carol Simpson M anager 4 274 INTRA-MURALS CLUBS S PLASH! Flop! Squeek! Swimming Club Lour again. AH winter long these nautically in- clined maidens have faced the blustering winter weather of Washington once a week to indulge in their sport. The Physical Education Department secured the Y. W. C. A, pool for the club for purely recreational purposes. The girls 1 swimming season officially opens on March 19 and promises to be one of the most successful. With many of the old varsity people back and many capable new aspirants, the telegraphic meets which we are having this year should be most exciting. We hope to have telegraphic meets with colleges we have participated with before, namely: Harrisonburg State Teachers ' College, Swarthmore and New York University. Iowa University has also been written to for an engagement. With the coming of warm spring days, many of George Washington ' s co-eds will be found ft working out tJ in the 17th Street pool. The equestriennes forming the Girls ' Riding Club, under the supervision of Miss Janet Jones, rode once a week in Rock Creek Park until cold weather. Plans are under way for a Riding Show to be given this spring. The organization of Columbian Women has offered a cup in honor of the horse of the first president of the George Washington University which will be presented to the girl winning the show. Under the new regime of clubs, one of the most active is the Fencing Club. This club meets at night so that all students, both daytime and evening, may have a chance to come out for it. It is one of the few athletic student activities for which night students can come out 275 f - as well as day students. The club is divided into two sections, those who began to fence in October and those who entered the group in February A tournament within the club is planned for rhe end of the year in which the two groups will compete separately The manager of the club is Adelaide Kline Under the coaching of Miss Janet Jones, Archery is becoming one of the most popular sports offered to women students by the University. During the fall and spring months, any number of fair co-eds can be seen bending their bows down on the Elipse. In the fall of this year, two mai n competitions were held. The first of these was an inter-class tournament in which the Sophomores, captained by Doris Troth, w r on over the Freshmen, whose captain was Anna Berger. Later, George Washington met American University in a shooting match, which the Colonials easily won. In Track, the idea has been to emphasize team accomplishments rather than individual Over thirty people came out for this sport last year, prominent among w f hom were Wilhelmina Gude, Louise Berryman and Inge von Lew- inski. The Dancing festivities presented this year have progressed by graceful leaps and bounds The program varies with different classes. In natural dancing, the aim is to develop in each student a sincere self-expression through simple body movement. In this form of the dance, the student is given the opportunity to express something that is all her own. Clogging and tap are drawing more and more interested pupils. The intricacies of this phase of the work are being overcome with rapidity and the classes, as a whole, have progressed to a remarkable degree of efficiency Folk dancing adds colorful glamour to the dancing festivities. Many foreign festival and occupational dances are studied and performed. Early in March the students in the natural dancing classes plan to give an informal program for the Columbian Women. The spring demonstration will exhibit some of the work accomplished in the clog- ging and folk dancing classes. 276 Un ii | i r j i jp, i i as well as day students, The !ul in dn uM l to - ?

Professor Elmer Kayser was then a student and elected the first secretary-treasurer of the Council. This Council set out to eliminate the athletic deficit and did much to help university spirit during war-time The present Student Council was elected in April, 1930, to establish and formulate a student government for the purpose of controlling and regulating student activities and rela- tions, acting as an intermediary between the faculty and student body. The first officers of the Council were: Maude Hudson, president; Hearst Duncan, vice-president; Edith Norris, secretary; John Kennedy, treasurer. The main objective of the Council is to aid in the establishing and furnishing of the Student Union Building, 277 I Top Line ( -n tie, WYitzel, Kuddiman, Wdhe Second Line Mittimily, Fraser, Rad tie, Dorsey, Kcim SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS President Frank Weitzel (Columbian College ) Vice-President.

A stu- penduous task demanding much time and labor, the construc- tion of this Volume has not been without its compensating joys. The Chairman wishes to express appreciation: To the Business Manager f whose invaluable assistance has made possible the completion of this Volume, To the Board of Editors and the Cherry Tree Staff, whose loyalty has sustained us in our efforts. To the Photographer, the Engraver and the Printer for their untiring efforts and wise counsel. DRAMATICS t QMlLE, girls! Smile! One, two, three, four — One. two — Julia Denning three years ago, two years ago, one year ago to the tune of Elmer Brown’s music, Bill Je mi son’s music, Dan Beattie’s music. Some of them were hits and were sung around the campus because people couldn’t help themselves— some of them stood the test of only three nights The books, coo, as we look at them with gentle reproach in our retrospect, give everyone in the many casts (and these, by the way, thought they were headed for Broadway when they evoked their first titter from the audience) competent memories of thrills in the wings or before the footlights behind which friends stared and grinned, and applauded — (at the wrong time, perhaps, but then, they did applaud). From the wistful collegians in ' Sharps and Frats”, George Washington’s legion of actors, authors, song writers, etc., look up to the endeavoring patter of Sometime Soon”, where Harriet Rissler carolled, and Midge Burnham broke our hearts (this only lasted for a year — after that we heard it too often) with Dan Beattie’s What Care L” Each of us in those casts could, if we had the time, trace the histrionic development of Jerry Sickler and might try to count the times we saw the beloved snake dance which came into flush bloom in Frank Westbrook’s and Midge Burnham ' s Gyped in Egypt.” Here was a time when Jerry could execute his masterpiece in character, for he appeared as Mussle Abdomen, the dear old Egyp- tian fakir in the dear old hotel in the land of the dear old pyramids (permission of Mr. Bernie, of Chicago). Here we remember Carolyn Brasch’s leap to the approval of audience and campus with her charm, hidden before her debut in the slaving choruses And the legion sees that Gyped in Egypt’ was just as much of a bit of romantic humor as Good Gracious God- frey” was a touch of whimsical sanitary nonsense. This last bit was Frank Westbrook’s and Fletcher Henderson’s effort Soft music, please, while I extol the hidden charms of this opera. Hidden is appropriate here Its chief fault was that they were too well hidden But in our passing— in review the legion is pleased with it -=Sl 290 And while we are smoking our pipes beside a fire of Cherry Tree wood, does anyone remember the silver loving cup which was offered the fraternity which participated most in the production? And how fifty whole points were offered to the fraternity which sold the most tickets! And — the fight which ensued between the Theta Delts and the Sigma Chis because at one minute to twelve the dear old K’s bought up all the tickets (privately of course) which their individual pockets could stand. And two Theta Delts nearly had angina pectoris because the library clock and Corcoran Hall ' s clock differed one minute! Jolly! The Chi Omega s got the women ' s cup. The legion still wonders what became of those tickets!!! And the last show! We missed Jerry Sickler and he stood by with good grace while Billy Phillips did the honors — dividing them with Willie Gude — the incomparable Desdemona. The fire is getting low, but there is one thing more which we should remember Some of the legion are going to leave us Some of them are commandants and some are privates — but all good ones. And while we hope for some things even better in future production sea- sons (sounds right professional, doesn ' t it), let us regard those who have heard their final cue, and have made their last entrance. When the final curtain rings down in June, 1 ’mid bursts of applause ' let us give them a last and most graceful carta in calk 291 b lop I .hit ' t rosin. Mills.

Isaac Davis in 1847, are awarded annually to mem- bers of the Senior class having made the greatest progress in public speaking since their connections with the University. The prizes are in gold. The award of these prizes is determined by a public speaking contest in which the par- ticipants deliver original orations, which are judged by a committee of three members, chosen by the Department of Public Speaking. The winners in 1930 were James Wingo, first; Virginia Frye, second, and Lewis Dembitz, third. FRESHMAN ORATORICAL CONTEST The Freshman Oratorical Contest was inaugurated by Phi Delta Gamma, which is a national professional forensic fraternity. Three prizes are provided and competition is open to ah Freshmen. Awards are made on the basis of a contest at which original orations are given. The decisions are made by the members of the Department of Public Speaking. The winners in the 1930 contest were: Clara Critchfield, first; Grant Van Demark, sec ond, and Ralph Gilby, third.
