He is a real optimist and a close observer of human nature. He believes the best in people and is always ready to assist in any worthy enterprise. Prexy believes in students and does not hesitate to transfer responsibility to their organizations. He has said many times, You students can make of yourselves what you wish to be, and his reaction to students ' requests bears him out. The S. S. G. A. has been organized and put on a sound basis during his administration. Action and service are the president ' s great goals. He believes in serving a great student body and through them serving our great state and nation, and he insists on doing it now. President Jardine has K. S. A. C. close to his heart. He has turned down ofl ' ers for more money with great opportunities because his heart is with the Aggies, and he wants to see our campus continue to grow and develop, and our Alma Mater spread in fame by the class of men and women who go out from it to serve mankind. 26 i o c Zy x j i= i: je; 41 1 2. 2l, v Division of ' l V.grlculture ; v= . i i iL : i=i y= ! jy I T Z JE7 t immmmmm Tir Lambs Ready ft.r„ ' ' 1arl et Tnpst-PnzeXerd i An Cxcreise in Pruning Jjaijin Quarters ' ' g YX.v!. i . , ,.«li ,.•- . . ; . ..■!, j o: c s jpiyj i z E iDivision of engineering The division of engineering has for its chief purpose the training of men for the various branches of engineering. In recent years the tendency of professional engineering practice has been toward specialization ; but successful specialization must be based upon thorougli general training. The division of engineering meets these reciuirements by giving instruction in the fundamental sciences and arts upon which all engineering is based and imparts such special and technical practice of his profession. MACHINE SHOP The shop practice department has, in addition to the machine shop, extensive shops in foundry, blacksmithing, woodworking and automechanics. Few college shops are so well provided with modern equipment. i o:y::: ' Zy j jj j i ji j = = i :2. Division of Engineering Four year curricula are offered in the division of engineering in agricultural engineering, architecture, civil engineering, electrical engineering, flour-mill engineering, and mechanical engineering. In addition to the four year curricula, special instruction in a number of vocations is offered. A three-year curriculum in mechanic arts with trade practice electives in blacksmithing, carpentry, concrete construction and stationary and traction engines is given. Short special courses for automobile mechanics, tractor operators, carpenters, machinists, blacksmiths, electricians and foundrymen are designed for those who desire training in these trades and who find it impossible to take advantage of any of the longer courses offered. ARCHITECTLKAL DRAUCHTINC, ROOMS The architectural department is one of the popular depart- ments of the college. Its enrollment has shown a marked increase in the last few years. i o:y i:y jRjyi j i E i 2 ' ' jjrr jfefe gS-S t Division of Hn incorimj The division of engineering at the Kansas State Agricultural collejjte occupies an honorable place among similar divisions found in other collegiate institutions. Few engineering schools in the middle west are so fully equipped and so well prepared to con- duct efficiently the instructional work. The effectiveness of the course may be measured by the fact that a very large percentage of its graduates are engaged in technical pursuits. The growth of the division has been remarkable. In the last ten years the number of students enrolled has increased to three times the number at the beginning of that period. At the present time the division has the largest enrollment of any of the divisions at Kansas State Agricultural college; an enrollment larger than that of any other engineering school in the state of Kansas. DYNAMO LABORATORY The electrical engineering department has, in addition to the dynamo laboratory, extensive laboratories in illumination, tele- phony, electrical measurements, and dynamo winding. i o:y j r xj ' i i= z iPivision of (banavai Science P r )UlV 1 : SAS STATE ' b )t J VJJ l ENGINEER In writing, editing, printing and distributing college publica- tions students get interesting experience and valuable training.

In home economics, art and science are applied to the problems of living and of home making. Students prepare for responsible work in the world whether it be as wage earners or man- agers of their own households. Work in household economy was announced in K. S. A. C. as early as 1874. A curriculum in home economics has been olTered since 1898. Textiles are studied under the micro- scope and tested for permanence of color and for wearing qualities. The final fitting.

[jF ojyr- jz j= iyj i z E I stay my haste, I make delays, For what avails this eager pace? I stand amid the eternal ways, And what is mine shall know my face. Asleep, awake by night or day. The friends I seek are seeking me; No wind can drive my bark astray, Nor change the tide of destiny. What matter if I stand alone? I wait with joy the coming years; My heart shall reap where it has sown. And garner up its fruit of tears. The waters know their own and draw The brook that springs in yonder height; So flows the good with equal law Unto the soul of pure delight. The stars come nightly to the sky ; The tidal wave unto the sea; Nor time, nor space, nor deep, nor high. Can keep my own away from me. — John Burroughs i o: c j: r xj j t z e, HRoai-I ATH««SAIMD TU°i)5AA o YBAFiS THE EARTH FORM ' W M THOUSAND THOUSftNP YEAKy IN BECOMING A MftN Adam ano Eve were made the HONoRftRV i-areni or the place Ey the tike China had DEVELOfEP into AflAiiort or piotails.

' fie Cla of 192Z ! - r Senior (Tlass UfistorY Ho HUM. Gosh. Well, here we are at last. Seniors — soon to join the ranks of the alumni. Just what we have been working for all these years. We ' re at the end of our collegiate rope, if you please, and now that we ' re here we don ' t feel a bit stuck up. According to recorded history, all the classes that have been graduated from K. S. A. C. were select bodies of assorted geniuses. We are workers, and now that we are about to graduate are looking for a job. Say, you don ' t happen to need a handy man around the house, do you? Our class believes in success via steady plugging. In the autumn of 1918, when the Great World War was yet in full swing, we entered our college course. No one can doubt that the war, with its subsequent period of depression, has had its sobering effect upon us. It taught us to see things in their proper perspective — stripped bare of their usual glamor. We have learned to appreciate the value of honest toil, and have displayed this realization in our unprecedented interest in school and class affairs. The class held its first meeting in the old chapel — now recreation center — in the fall of 1918, and elected Dewey Houston president. Unlike the cases of more recent freshmen classes, there was but one election, and the guiding hand of a faculty member was not needed. This same and interest has been potent among our attributes ever since. Many of our boys were in the army, and a large number — softly now — were in the S. A. T. C. Maybe it was the rest the boys got there that has kept them going ever since. Let us mention a few of the things we have accomplished besides making good grades. In the first place it was the seniors who really showed the world what honest-to-goodness class politics was, when in the election last spring more votes were cast than ever were cast by any previous class at K. S. A. C. At every class meeting since that time the room has been filled. A senior class, you know, is composed of both boys and girls. Senior girls have been promi- nent in class athletics, in politics, in beauty contests, May fetes, and— well, what haven ' t they had a hand in. This year four out of the six girls chosen in the popularity contest were seniors. Athletically speaking, here is more evidence of our importance: Brady Cowell, Murphy, Freddie Williams, Schmitz, Clapp, H. Brown, Guilfoyle, Griffith. Those names are self- explanatory. Nor does all our fame come from the gridiron, the diamond, or the cinder path. On the platform in both deb ate and oratory seniors hold the foreground. Interest in forensic affairs at K. S. A. C. is growing rapidly, and largely because of the impetus given by this year ' s class. Howard won the intersociety oratorical and Barger took second place in the Missouri Valley contest. The Ag Fair is another thing which the seniors have developed for their alma mater. Practically all the student executive offices on the hill are held by seniors. We have accomp- lished these things by plugging. Good-bye everybody. You ' ll have to get along the best you can without us.

Fresh from our homes, timid and suspicious, the class of 1923 first appeared on the campus in tlie fall of 1919. Who can forget that registration? At a third or fourth class meeting we succeeded in nominating officers. Politics appeared early with plenty of help from the upper classmen. First semester officers were Ellis Kimball, president; Faith Martin, vice-president; Frances .Johnstone, secretary, and Earl Chappell, treasurer. Those for the second semester were: R. C. Spratt, Mary Fitzgerald, Irene Shoe- maker, and Renna Rosenthal. The Freshman-Sophomore hop, given in the spring, was a howling success. At least we thought so when we successfully escaped with the key handed down by the Sophomores. Much Ado Aboiil Nothing. We came back to our sophomore year much more sophisticated. We had learned that permits to roam the campus need not be bought, and that Phi Kappa Phi pledging is not done the Freshman year. Our usual elections were held both semesters as follows: President, vice-president, secretary, and treasurer for first semester, H. L. Sebring, N. V. Platner, Mary F. Turner and .Joe McGuire; second semester, L. G. Grandfield, Gretchen Rugh, Lucile Smith and M. R. Getty. Another very successful Freshman-Sophomore hop was held spring of 1921. The key was again handed down to the Freshmen. Thus ended our sophomore year. the gymnasium 3uuior year .Af You Like It. Here we are back in our junior year. Much more sedate and dignified, for we are upper- classmen now! Our first election was very quiet, every officer unanimously elected. Under careful administration the first semester ended without a stir. Second semester ele ction was not so quiet — a second voting on vice-president and treasurer was necessary. In athletics we have always stood high. In fact, most of the athletes in college are Juniors —Sebring, Sears, Schindler, Matthias, Erwin, Hope, Constable, Franz, and McKee are only a few of them. We took first in the track meet with Hope high point man, and our girls won the championship in basketball. Not only in athletics but in any worth while organization on the campus whether it per- tains to oratory, debate, dramatics, journalism, college band, or orchestra you will always find members of this class on top. Next year we will return and it is safe to say, will again prove our sterling worth. i oiy j: j jyj i JOJE: Officers of vTlass of 1923 ir C 4 c v V.

We write those words with a feeling of exulta- tion and satisfaction. We are no longer designated by that odious appellation Freshmen! We have pushed forward until now, at last, we decorate your pages as Sophomores, and such words as chemistry laboratory, freshman caps, and paddles have only historical significance in our minds. Now about this history of us. Eight hundred and seventy-eight boys and girls, potential engineers and journalists, Greek pledges, ags., and home ec ' ers, athletes, musicians, debaters, cynics, daters, and students, enrolled as Freshmen one sweltering day in the fall of 1920. We soon became bold enough to pass daily through the aisles of the standing market in Anderson. Later, after several desperate word battles, we elected the class officers. We then started out to express ourselves and make our mark on college life. During that first year our one achievement was borrowing money from the Sophomores. But now, near the end of our second year, our influence is felt in all college activities. Our lounge lizards are of the fiercest species; our athletes are helping make victorious Aggie football, basketball, track, and swimming teams; our students have startled the professors by their application; The Brown Bull and the Collegian could hardly be pubhshed if it were not for our Newsies, artists, jokesters, and satirists; and our girls well, at the present rate there won ' t be any frat pins left for the frats by the time we are Seniors. Our presence is essential to the happiness of the music department because our actions at the Artist Series are perfect. The literary societies recognize our ability in debate and oratory, and dramatic organizations are enlisting a number of us. With such a past can we fail? No! We modestly admit that we are des- tined to be the greatest class at K. S. A. C. 2 c: s ' j:y i Tj i T= z E Officers of tl)e (Tlassof 1924 L. W. Grothusen; Alma Hallowell; J. M.

Myrle Barnhisel REFLECTIONS lone Aspey We came to school a motley crew, Believing thoroughly we knew Just how a college should be run, And good advice we sought from none. So many things we could improve. And guide them through a brand new groove. Among them was assigners ' speed; They moved as if the course were treed, And took so long to get it down, We pulled up chairs and parked around, Sometimes an hour, sometimes all day. They had you there; you had to stay. The football season soon began, And introduced a two-fold plan. One meant a cap of purple hue, The other brought the wood to you. They sent us down two long, long lines — We traveled down the Rue de Pines. The question ends where it began — To wear the cap or dodge the fan. The bright headgear with button green Will really make a Frosh look keen. And next fall may the saints protect Each capless Frosh that we detect. — H. E. Monroe. I C C jry .f Jjrj 2 jr ACKARS.

S. A. C. athletics. This was the unanimous verdict of the followers of the great college game, and the record of last fall ' s football team certainly justifies the decision. Dating back to the last game of 1920, when the scrappy Aggies tied the champions of that year in a thrilling battle, a fighting spirit was born that could not be denied. During the following winter and spring it spread rapidly through the student body and when college opened in September everyone was shouting This is the Aggie year. Real, unadulterated pep was rampant and the first mixer of the year held in the Y. M. C. A. building, started the campaign for a winning team. Facing the stiffest schedule ever procured for an Aggie team called for all that was best from the players and students alike, and may it be said to the everlasting credit of both that they delivered the goods. The team finished in a tie with the University of Missouri for second place in the Valley, but the Wildcats had previously twisted the Tiger ' s tail and knotted it with a 7 to 5 score. Washington University bowed to the superior team work of the Aggies in the first game of the season and was decisively beaten 21 — 0. Two games escaped Bachman ' s net — one to Ames and the other to K. U. The season ended in a blaze of glory when the Wildcats, playing true to name and form, outplayed the fine team coached by Bennie Owen and representing the University of Oklahoma. It was the Homecoming game and the best ever from an Aggie viewpoint. Old grads and visitors, attending the dedication of the Engineering hall, were in attendance at this game. Bachman ' s proteges, inspired by their pre- sense, played a whirlwind game that sent every loyal Aggie home with his head in the clouds. A wonderful football machine, well coached, finely trained, working as one for the best interest of the many, backed by the most loyal student body in the country, was bound to result in the best season ever enjoyed by an Aggie eleven. Next fall the Wildcats will have nearly all of the 1921 bunch with the addition of some promising material from the freshman varsity. Let ' s go, Aggies, the old fight and every student a loyal rooter.

Stauffer Big Stauff was crowned with hard during the football season. Early in the an injury to his knee kept him on the side-lines. He was shot into the fray often enough to show flashes of his old time form, and the Wildcats are counting strongly on Stauflfe r ' s tackle play to help bring home the Missouri Valley title in 1922. P. S.— Marion Stauffer is busy writing journal- istic yarns and putting on flesh. Nichols Nick reported for football in 1921 with about 165 pounds of flesh and bone, a smile, and a fighting spirit. Injuries to veterans gave the youngster a chance and he made good. It is a pleasure to watch this boy play tackle. He is endowed with everything that a good athlete needs in his work. Heady, aggressive, and fast. The way he sizes up the opponents ' strategy is uncanny, and many a time Nick has broken up ing plays before they were well under way.

There may have been better students than Henry in the Valley, but it would be hard to make the Aggie Profs believe it, and there may have been better tackles in the Valley but you could not make the Aggie rooters admit it. Schmitz has been carrying the ball for consistent gains in his class room work and if he doesn ' t watch out he ' ll graduate in three years and lose one year of athletic competition in the Missouri Valley. College of Emporip . .t i j as .. Wash _.,,{. He was a hard driving runner, a good passer, and the possessor of an educated toe which did excellent service on several occasions during the season. Called upon as he was on numerous occasions to kick from behind our own goal line he showed that he could be depended upon to turn the trick when under fire.

Never flashy but always in the right place when needed. He has a valuable cog in Bachman ' s machine. He was a fierce tackier and a keen student of the game and should rank high in Valley circles in 1922. Steiner A new find -playing his first year of college football, he proved himself a satisfactory under-study for Ray Hahn. With the e.xperience gained last fall and in spring practice John should develop into a star lineman. He is built like the Sig Ep Bungalow, but is astonishingly fast for a man of his avoirdupois. A running mate to Hahn and, therefore, needless to add, a sterling football guard. Schindler was handi- capped to some extent by injuries, but his game was al- ways sound and at times it was brilliant. With Schindler and Hahn back next fall the Wildcats are bound to have two of the best guards in the Valley.

Burton was the most spectacular half-back in the Missouri Valley. He was especially brilliant on the receiving end of a pass, and many a gain was made by the aerial routes, Starke to Bui ton. or Swartz to Burton.

The graduation of a team which had played together for three years left only one regular player and three substitutes around which to build a new team. That the team was a coming one was proved when it gave Nebraska and Missouri very close decisions at the end of the season. A return of all but two of this year ' s men will mean a more experienced team with which to start the 1922-23 season. i o c ry j jyi i z E Ray Halm In basketball Ray showed that same fight and ag- gressiveness that made him a terror on the football field. He was particularly good at taking the rebound from the back board and made the most of his size and speed. Andy McKee Andy was a consistent worker at center, playing par- ticularly good games against K. U. and Oklahoma. However, he was handicapped most of the season by sickness contracted during the Christmas holidays. Hank Webber Hank was an example of the Old Aggie Fight and played a hard, clean game at all times. Webber was the backbone of the Aggie defense, doing stellar work at the guard position until sickness put him out at the end of the season. He should be one of the most valuable men on the squad next year. Maurelle Dobson Dobby was not eligible until the second semester but started right off by shooting baskets from all the floor in the game against Missouri. Dobson was of the most spectacular players in the Valley and should prove a big help to the team next year. j= o:y j:y j jyj T= j:ujE: 1 s. 2 0 m - ' t 1921 OracK Season Featured by one or two strong men rather than by a winning combination, the track season of 1921 from the standpoint of Aggie victories was not particularly successful. With the excep- tion of two or three such strong men as Watson and Gallagher the remainder of the team was made up of new material. The season opened with a meet with the Haskell Indians who were the winners of the contest, while Missouri and K. U. later defeated the Aggies by scores of almost two to one. The ability of the Aggies to take points in the long distance events was the strong point of the team. In the hurdles and sprints the work of Gallagher featured at the beginning of the season. Several new men showed up with promise of future de- velopment. Riley did some nice work in the hurdles, Hope and Axline in the pole vault, and Von Reisen and Kuykendall in the distances. New records for the Aggies were set by Watson in the half two mile runs, and by Gallagher in the 100 yard dash. -?e,o3 srz j iyj j= 2: E Wal.fon Captain Ray B. Watson has completed a unique career at K. S. A. C. When he first trod the campus of the college four years ago, none, himself included, would admit that he was an athlete. But in the three years of his track competition he has blazed a trail in track ath- letics that has given him an international reputation as a middle distance and a general all-around man in scholastic attainments. In his junioi year he earned the right to represent his country at the Olympic Games in Antwerp, Belgium, and in his senior year he closed his careei by elea.ly demonstrating that he was the class of 2 the collegiate world by winning the mile at the National Inter-Collegiate meet in Chicago in record time. Bill is one of our star distance runners and was inianimously elected captain of the 1922 track team. His specialty wt winner. Bill w;: country teams. Kuykendall the mile in which he wt a member of the four n consistent Kyk was Ray Watson ' s running mate in the mile and two mile. He was a member of the cross-country team and the four-mile relay team. His best time in the two mile was 9:51 made in the dual meet with Haskell. Clapp Clapp ran the half-mile in dual meets and was one of our most consistent point winners. He was also a mem- ber of the cross-country and four-mile relay teams. ' i o:y: 3 j:y t x i j z Axline The Swede was the surprise package of the track team. With only three days ' practice, because of heavy assignments and outside work, he vaulted 11 feet 9 inches at the Missouri Valley meet and won second place. Riley During the indoor season Riley ran the quarter and was a member of the mile relay quartet. During the outdoor season he was switched to the 220 yard low hurdles, and finished the season with a third place in the Valley meet. Hope Mollis ranked as one of the most versatile track ath- letes in the Valley. The pole vault was his specialty, yet he won many points in dual meets with his hurdling, high jumping, and broad jumping. At the K. C. A. C. he vaulted 11 feet 10 inches. Heme Henre, our diminuitive two miler, came to the Aggies with a reputation of being a distance runner and has more than made good. He was a member of the cross- country and four-mile relay teams. I Oiy Xy :F ljrj Z= Z jE; 1 2. :2. Jenninga Competing his first year in track, Jennings developed rapidly as a high jumper. He has an unusual amount of strength and spring. CoUom CoUom was our lone representative in the weight events, and while he was not a big man, he more than mude up for lack of weight by speed and form J 1 throwing Von is a middle distance runner of no mean ability- He shows promise of being a worthy successor to Ray Watson in the middle distance events. Von has records 1:59 and 4:31 in the half and mile respectively. He is sophomore and has two years of competition left. Stally showed great promise as a ' broad jumper. He is a faithful worker who can be depended upon at all times to exert all the energy at his command for the college. i c c 3 j:y T xyi T i: E: m Uitli 1 lu|.. ,1 u| I h I 111 I runni r- to work with, the coach started early in iht m isor to dLvtlup a n_la ttani When the trjouts for the Ilhnoib Relay were held in the gymnasium, the competition for places on the team was so keen that six men ran the mile under 4 minutes and 40 seconds, which is a faster average time than the Armory record made by Illinois in 1919. At Illinois we finished second to the Illinois quartet. Both teams broke the Armory record. At the Drake relays, held the first Saturday in May, we again placed second to Illinois, defeating Wisconsin, Minnesota, Chicago, Ames, Kansas, and Drake. Ray Watson is the only member of the quartet that was lost by graduation and with such men as Von Riesen and Price to fill his place, we may look for our relay team to bring added laurels to K. S. A. C. :F c c i:y :f x j jp z je: (Tross (Tountr 1921 f The second year of the revival of cross country running showed a marked improvement in interest and team ability. There were no outstanding men, but rather a group of evenly balanced runners. The s()uad was finally singled out from about 45 aspirants. In the handicap run, which was open to freshmen and varsity, the Aggie followers of this sport saw the beginning of the hard grind of the daily running. Bill Matthias, captain of the team, was first man in despite his handicap of two and one-half minutes. M. R. Henre, handicapped the same, was second, and E. H. Bradley was third. The team which ran against K. U., and which met the big defeat of a 17-38 score because of the unknown stretch of almost a mile of brick pavement, was composed of the following men who placed according to the number following their name: Matthias, 3; Chapman, 7; Bradley, 8; Clapp, 9; Bryan, 11; and Ibach, 12. Just previous to the meet with Nebraska university, November 5, the team was greatly strengthened by the addition of M. R. Henre. As a result, the Aggie men won a decisive victory over their opponents by the score of 17-38. This team was composed of Clapp, Matthias, and Henre who tied for first, with Chapman, fifth, with Bradley sixth, and with Bryan ninth. The final meet which the Aggie antelopes entered and which gave a good comparison of the relative merit of the individuals in a valley setting, was the M. V. meet at Lincoln, Neb., on November 11. The team which made the trip was the same as the week before, and among the thirty-six entries made the following places: Matthias, Henre, Clapp. Bradley. Chapman. Bryan. The placing of the teams was: Iowa State, first with 31 points: K. U., second with 50: Kansas Aggies, third with 75: Nebraska, fourth with 80: Grinnell, fifth with 8S; and Washington sixth with 140. Captain Matthias, M. R. Henre, and W. J. Clapp reached the requirements for monograms and were presented with the cross country sweater. 2 c: c j: jRTy i i= z :E: m i! Although the team gradually improved throughout the season, 1921 was not, in consideration of games won, a particularly successful baseball year for the Aggies. The season opened with a tie game with St. Mary ' s. A week later, St. Mary ' s played a return game, making it 11 — 1 in their favor. Then followed a game with Haskell with a 7 — 5 win and Kansas University with two wins. The Aggies finally found their stride and held Nebraska to close scores in a pair of games on the home field. Missouri next visited the Aggie camp and a pair of games was split between the teams. Oklahoma came along and was defeated in two games. Nebraska took the next two on her home grounds and the season closed with divided honors in two games between the Aggies and K. U. The combination of a change of coaching system and poor weather conditions for training made itself felt at the beginning of the season. %i c : i jry j jy i T z , T % Guiltoyk, Luke (Captain) Captain Luke was the backbone of the Aggie varsity last spring.

Captain Guilfoyle displayed a brand of catching and qualities of leadership that stamp him as one of the best receivers in the issouri Valley.

Mershon, C. F. Last year Rosy was a mighty good third baseman but Racely placed him at short-stop and he performed like a big leaguer in his new role. A dependable hitter, a classy fielder, and an all around good fellow is the verdict of the fans. Otto, Merton Mert pitched his final game for the Aggies last spring and the fans are still in mourning. When Riley ' s fast ball was working there was nothing to it but to chalk up a win for the home team. Mert was one of the most willing slab artists that ever wore an Aggie uniform. Hewey, Geo. Dutch Big Dutch was a crafty slab artist. He has a fast ball but depended largely on his slow ball to win games. Hewey was a student of baseball, and pitched with his head as well as his arm. Many an opposing battrr whiffed the air because Dutch outguessed him.

KNOTH Assistant Professor of Physical Education ltttra.: uraimtbUtlC5 Intra-murals have become permanently established at the Kansas State Agricultural college. Great impetus was given to this branch of physical education when the department of physical education secured Prof. E. A. Knoth to take charge of gymnastic work and intra-murals. Through his efforts intra-mural events in basketball, baseball, track, and swimming have met with hearty response from the student body and much interest has been manifested by faculty and public in the results of these games. In the fall of 1920 the first intra-mural games were scheduled at this institution and now at the end of two years the physical education department possesses a thriving young enterprise that seems to be winning its way with the student body. The success of intra-murals at the Kansas Aggie is due to Coach Knoth and the hearty cooperation of the student organizations. I OJ C j jyi jr z E.

The Pan Hellenic division was composed of the 12 national fraternities. Each of the two independent divisions had eight teams competing. Good competition in all the divisions resulted in some very snappy games. That the interest was at a high pitch was proven by the crowds which packed the gym- nasium for the games. The Pan Hellenic division ended the season in a four cornered tie for first place, namely: Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Delta Tau Delta, Sigma Nu, and Beta Theta Pi. In the play-off Sigma Alpha Epsilon turned in the winner. Pan Hellenic champions— Sigma Alpha Epsilon. Division A Independent champions — Triangulars. Division B Independent champions — Elkhart Club. In the play-ofT between the two independent champions the Elkharts duplicated their record of last year and are hailed as the independent champions. The Sigma Alpha Epsilons and Elkharts battled for the college cham- pionship and it was anybody ' s game until the final whistle blew when the score stood 11 to 12 in favor of the Sigma Alpha Epsilons.

Bad weather and lack of playing space caused the season to drag out but after the shuffle was all over, Sigma Nu was holding the honors in the Pan Hellenic and the Veterinary Medical Association in the independent division. The college year ended before the two champions could meet and as a result the college championship was not decided. This year baseball bids fair to be every bit as popular as the basketball, 25 teams having entered with still a week ' s time for entries to come in. Oennis Thirty-six men were entered in the tennis singles which were conducted on the elimination basis. C. A. Downing and J. E. Burge battled their way to the finals. Downing defeating Burge in the finals. Twelve teams were entered in the doubles. C. A. Downing and G. Wann defeated E. Wareham and L. T. King in the finals. Boxing, wrestling and hand-ball tournaments are under progress and the spring will see a big intra-mural track meet. 158 i oix z i un z z JE:] :2 2 X omen ' s Athletics Miss l ouise Tausche Miss Mary Worrall Miss Tausche, head of the department of physical education for women, came to K. S. A. C. in 1920 and has been responsible for the growth and popularity of women ' s athletics. This is Miss Worrali ' s first year here, but in true Merry Whirl fashion she has made many friends and is an enthusiastic athletic coach. As honorary and advisory members of the Women ' s Athletic asso- ciation both have been very valuable. Miss Ruth Kittell and Miss Frances Johnstone are student assistants. The department prides itself in that it encourages girls to engage in the various sports and also gives them a chance to play in a large number of games thus not limiting the sport to those who have made teams. Every girl who wishes to try out for a sport is placed on a team which is designated by a color. A color tournament then is played before the class teams are picked. i o:y:: 3 z K 1 2. sT l; Obe -A mcrican e6 (Tross Grace Gardner Lucille Whan Louise Tausche Ruth Kittell Elsie Berjjstrom Julia Caton Faith Martin Betty McCoin LIFE SAVING CORPS Chartered May, 1920 The national t-ommittee of the Life Saving corps.

Turing its history, the Alpha Beta literary society has led other organiza- tions in promoting worthy activities, whether in forensics, oratory or dramatics. In 1920 the Alpha Betas won first place in the annual oratorical contest, re- cording for the fourth tim.e a victory. Alpha Beta has many K debaters on its roll. Never has there been a time when the society was not represented on the college debate squads. The Alpha Beta literary society has been a place of training for many widely known people. J. T. Willard, vice-president of K. S. A. C.and dean of the division of general science, was one of Alpha Beta ' s first presidents. J. W. Zahnley, assistant professor of farm crops, Mrs. C. A. Kimball, president of the Federation of Women ' s Clubs in Kansas, and Ed Shellenbaum, editor of the Manhattan Nationalist, were Alpha Betas during their college days. Major General J. G. Harbord, the most distinguished graduate of K. S. A. C., and one of the most distinguished citizens of the United States, was an Alpha Beta. In a recent visit to the college General Harbord paid Alpha Beta a tribute in saying that Alpha Beta was a worthy organization and that he derived much good from being a member of the society. These men and women are only a few of the Alpha Betas who have gone out into the world and made good. This year Alpha Beta has 53 enthusiastic ms.tibers. They are active in athletics, Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C.A., debate, dramatics, and in the men and worren ' s glee clubs. Alpha Beta is represented in the honorary fraternities of debate, oratory, athletics, dramatics, architecture, engineering, agriculture, home economics and veterinary medicine. This year the Alpha Betas have participated in the various activities with success. They were fifth in the oratorical contest, third in the intersaciety debates and second with their Aggie Pop stunt. The members of Alpha Beta will ahvays ho true to thei;- motto: Slowly but surely we progress. i o c z :f xj ' i 2 z e, tl)eniaR Clterar Society Motto — We strive to conquer. ' Colors V and Old (lold HISTORY The Athenian literary society was organized in 1907, and is the youngest s society on the hill. Due to increase in enrollment in the year 190G-07 societies then existing were unable to meet the demands of the students •ing literary work. Accordingly a group of students met December 15, ), at the Park Place dormitories, to consider the problem of forming a new ■ary society. At this meeting a committee was appointed to draw up a constitution, and secure a meeting place for the society. Sixteen men were present at this eting, and each member was allowed to invite one additional man to form • charter members of the society. The society first met on January 12, 1907, in a cla.ss room in the library Iding. 0. A. Stevens was elected as the first president and under his guidance society started its career. At first no permanent meeting place could be Lired, but in 1909 the Athenians secured what is now known as the Forum m, in the basement of Fairchild hall, as a permanent meeting place. The minutes of that day contain many interesting references to the condi- 1 of the new hall. At one time the marshal was instructed to catch the rat I ' as interfering with the program by running across the stage. At another was asked to keep frogs that were living in the damp corners, from tak- active a part in the evening ' s program. October 10, 1910, the Browning society was organized. The Athenians tely adopted it as a sister society and on October 29, invited the mem- joint Hallowe ' en party. With the advent of the Browning society iortant social events were started, among them the annual Christmas pring Owl Bake, the Daisy Hunt and the fall hike in honor of kporta |Uprii erlTi enian-Browning societies bid the old hall in Fairchild farewell, •ember 4, 1911, and moved to their present quarters in Xicholas gymnasium. ; event was the occasion for a big joint meeting. During the 15 years the Athenian society has been organized it has pro- ■d five winners of the intersociety oratorical, has won consistently the inter- !ty debates, has placed men 63 times in the intercollegiate debates, and at present time furnishes half of the college K debaters. The society was founded primarily to promote literary and forensic work, I this idea has been kept in the foreground throughout the history of the iety. The succe.ss that the Athenians in and out of the college have attained be attributed largely to the training which they received within the anization. i cny:: z j jy i jpz E !! rownlng TLlterarp Society Charlotte Russell, Gail Roderick, Gladys Roderick, Rachel Stewart, Lola Gudge, Luella Sherman, Grace Herr Nettie Pfatf, Mary Maroney, Ruth Reed, Ruth Pasley, Ruth Webb, Clara B.

Moreover the Athenian society felt the social need of a sister society and encouraged the movement. The society was named for a woman who stands high, not only in literature but in truest womanhood, Elizabeth Barret Browning. The Bluebird, the symbol of true happiness was chosen as the emblem of the society, and the brown and blue of its plumage became the colors of the Browning literary society. Organization was completed on October 10, 1910, and Harriet Dunn was elected the first president. Twenty-eight girls signed the constitution as charter members of the new society. On October 31 of the same year, the Athenians invited the new society to be their guests at a Hallowe ' en party and at that time the Owl and the Bluebird became brother and sister. The first meeting in the present society hall was held over a year later, on November 11, 1911. A joint meeting of the two so- cieties is held on Hallowe ' en and Christmas. The Daisy Hunt, Owl Bake and Princess Feast are annual events of the societies. The first years of the organization were marked by a spirit of cooperation in the society and by helpfulness from the faculty. There was room for a third girls ' society, and being smaller than the others it was able to assign real active work to every member. In the years that have passed the Brownings have ranked among the first in debate. In 1917 and 1918 the debate scholarship was held by Lola Sloop. In 1917 the Brownings had over 75 per cent of the K debaters on the squad. The Brownings have also made great progress in oratory, for in 1921 Gladys Addy won second place in the intersociety oratorical contest. The society owes much to Prof. J. E. Kammeyer under whose direction the organization was perfected and who has since been chosen God-father. i oiy - Zv jPTyi r n E JF ranKUn Citerar Society 4 c; lv ti i . f . 1 p . f Joe Thackrey, Hazel Lyness, Margaret Nettleton, Chester Herrick, Lawrence Reynolds.

A constitution was drawn up, which was adopted on January 13, 1902, and the first regular meeting was held on January 18, 1902. During the fall of 1903 the society was legally incoq orated and obtained a charter from the state. During the first year the society had no permanent meeting place, and met first in one place then another. For a time meetings were held in a room on the second floor of Anderson hall, later in the history room on the second floor of Fairchild hall. Then the society obtained the Franklin hall in the basement of this building. This hall was shared with the Eurodelphian society, and re- mained until the fall of 1911, when the Franklins moved into the new Franklin hall in the Nichols gymnasium. About 1907 it was decided to have an outing and a committee was appointed to plan this affair. The committee succeeded in keeping the rest of the society in suspense as to the nature of the outing, and when the day arrived and the members met at the scheduled place, they beheld a steam engine hitched to a hayrack waiting to convey the members. This event proved so successful that it was made an annual affair. Some very interesting events are always connected with the engine ride. On the second trip for a reason now unknown, the driver ran into a windmill on a farm a mile or so from town. The engine being a substantial one rather demolished the windmill. Another year, as is so often the case, it rained and the engine slid into a ditch where it remained, so the members were obliged to walk back to town. There have been only two years since the engine ride was organized that it has not been celebrated in the original style. The Franklins in 1913 won the silver loving cup in the intersociety spelling contest, and in 1916 won the banner for selling the most tickets to the Lyceum. ! I i c c Zy j= jyi i iiy E 1 :2.

The name Eurodelphian meaning sisterly love was chosen for the society. The society adopted While we live let us live, as its motto; brown and gold as its colors, the sunflower as its emblem, and the Delphi as the society paper. The first program was given Saturday afternoon, January 14, 1905. In the business meeting immediately following, the constitution was adopted and the following officers elected: President, Ethel demons Nicolet, ' 05; vice- president, Elva Akin Shepard, ' 05; recording secretary, Artie Edworthy Berk- ley, ' 06; treasurer, Lula Rannels Adams, ' 07; critic, Lora Perry Chestnut; marshal, Irma Davis, and chairman of the program committee, Helen Huse Collins, ' 08. In 1907 they were represented in the intersociety oratorical con- test for the first time by Helen Huse Collins. The society has grown in membership until it now stands at 71 with a limit of 75. In 1921 the society was granted a national charter with the Alpha chapter at K. S. A. C. and the Beta chapter at Purdue University, La Fayette, Indiana. The national literary society took for its motto, Row, not drift, its colors brown and gold, its emblem the sunflower, and its society paper the Delphi. In February, 1922, Kalamazoo college at Kalamazoo, Michigan, was grant- ed a charter as the Gamma chapter of the organization.

Its origin dates from October 12, 1868. In January, 1871, a charter of the society, setting forth its name, object and standards, was placed on file in the state auditor ' s office. The society grew rapidly and soon became an influential factor in the college life. A library was started which at one time numbered 250 volumes. This library was sold when the college library was opened in 1898. In 1878 the first monthly edition of the Webster Reporter appeared. The publication was soon changed to a semi-monthly which it continued to be until 1895. At this time it was changed to the weekly which it is at present. Upon the completion of Nichols Gymnasium in 1911 the Websters secured possession of the southwest room on the third floor. This room they now jointly occupy with their sister society, the National Eurodelphian literary society. In the fall of 1921, this being the fiftieth anniversary of the chartering of the society, the Websters affiliated with the Webster society at the University of Minnesota to form a national organization. The chapter at K. S. A. C. is the Alpha member and that at the University of Minnesota, the Beta member. The nationalization was announced at the annual Web-Euro homecoming ban- quet held at the Gillett hotel, November 19, 1921. Since 1887 over 2,000 Aggie men have sworn allegiance to Webster. As a national organization the society promises to foster and promote among college and university students a greater interest in literary activities and to provide for college men a greater opportunity to obtain that development which will insure their own success and which will enable them to be of the greatest benefit to their fellow men. i oDO z j jyi i 2: Ej 1 :2. :2.

IMII I O C Zy J jyj I Z jE, igfi Q : DoRlaix Citerarp Society Motto — Diamond Cut Diamond Colors - Silver and (iold During the spring of ' 87 a number of young women discussed the afi- visability of organizing a literary society. Under the leadership of Mr. Kerizie the plan was tried in the fall of the same year, developing into the Ionian literary society. As this was the first and only society of women, its develop- ment was watched by everyone. A constitution and by-laws were adopted. Twenty-three names were enrolled as charter members. From among these, the following officers were elected: [ ' resident Julia K. Pierce Vice-President Dora Van Zile Recording Secretary Carrie K. Hunter Marshal Tina Louise Colburn The preamble of the constitution well states the object of the society, For our mutual improvement and the cultivation of the forensic art, music and literature. The society held its first public entertainment in chapel, April 25, 1890. lonians have not been backward in oratory and debate but have taken an active interest in both since they were established. Out of the 22 annual inter- society oratorical contests, the Ionian society has placed twelve times, of which five have been first place. In inter-collegiate debate they have had 22 representatives, some of these girls making more than one team, thus giving a sum total of 34. The society has witnessed changes in its surroundings. During the first year of its existence the society met in the north corridor on the second floor of Anderson hall. From ' 88 to ' 94 the southeast room on the third floor of the same building was allowed the lonians and Hamiltonians. Then both societies moved into the room gi-anted them in Fairchild hall. They occupied this until 1911, when they moved into their hall in Nichols C.ymna.sium which they and the Hamiltons now occupy.

Sixteen names were enrolled on the list of charter mem- ber. The society grew so rapidly that within three years it was compelled to place a limit on its membership. During their first five years the members had no society room, but since then they have occupied successively what is now Dr. Siever ' s office, then the reserve room in Fairchild hall and finally their present place in the southeast room on the third floor of Nichols gymnasium to which they moved in 1911. But these chronological events do not tell the true history of the society. To know this one must know the men who have made it, the ideals that have guided it and the traditions that have grown up about it, only a small part of which can be told here. The Hamiltons have long been known as the rag chewers. The term was originally applied to the long parliamentary battles, over the discarding of an old Hamp rug (snapshot page). Since then all parliamentary battles have been officially known as rag chewing. Another custom which is suiTounded by a great deal of tradition is the Hamp-Io egg roast. The lo ' s started things in the fall of 1904 by throwing a hen into the Hamp hall during meeting. This hen was fed and cared for by the Hamps. became their mascot, and was known on the hill as the Hamp hen. She produced so bountifully during the winter that in the spring the Hamps invited the lo ' s to the quiet nooks of Cedar Bend to help devour the eggs. They termed it the Hamp-Io egg roast, and each spring the Hamps invited the lo ' s to help devour the eggs laid by the old Hamp hen (snap shot page). About the year 1909 a very pleasurable custom known as the Hamp-Io banquet was started. The first banquet was held in the old gymnasium or what is now the chemistry annex. The aims and ideals of the society have been literary in its broadest sense. These ideals naturally have led the society into a prominent part in oratory and debate. This year the Hamps were very ably represented in the intersociety oratorical contest by Donald I bach who placed third. In inter- collegiate debate, the society was represented on the K. S. A. C. rs. Ames debate by Ellis Kimble, and on the K. S. A. C. vs. Colorado debate squad by R. H. Moran, J. W. Farmer and H. I. Richards. This brief history may account for the definite and distinct character which the Hamilton literary society has built up, and which is known as Hamp type. Hamp Yell Role, bole, 0! Role, bole, 0!

It was felt by that group that there was a place in college life for an organization which had back of it the traditions and ideal s of the oldest secret organization in the world. The local organization to which a charter of Acacia was later granted was founded March 5, 1910, by a group of Master Masons. This organization was known as the Masonic club. The Masonic club became the Kansas State chapter of Acacia on December 6, 1913. The house at 821 Osage was the first to be occupied by the fraternity. In 1917 Acacia completed its new home which is located at 340 N. 16th. In the fall of the same year they took pos.session. During the war period which followed, Acacia virtually ceased to exist, there being only two members of the chapter in school. The house was used for a time by the government for housing members of the S. A. T. C. Later it was turned into an emergency hospital. In the spring of 1919 the men began to return from the service, and by the next fall fraternity affairs were almost back to normal. £4 : i . -g I O:y . Zy T Trj 7:r r . 5 1 :2. 2. lpl)a Oau Omega 1.

A. room, April 6, 1912, six students with common interests decided to or- ganize a club to be known as the Red Tie Club iR. T. C.i. In 1917 the Greek letter name, Alpha Theta Chi was adopted for the purpose of working for a charter of a national fraternity. Since the organization as R. T. C. a house has always been maintained. The first house was at 1211 More. For several years as Alpha Theta Chi, the fraternity occupied the house at 1408 Laramie. During the spring of 1920, the local fraternity purchased the house now occupied at 1642 Fairchild. Near the close of the spring semester in 1920 the petition to Alpha Tau Omega was granted and the Kansas Delta Theta chapter of Alpha Tau Omega was installed October 22, 1920. i c c zjo :f xj ' 1 i= z je:j 1 Q .

The next chapter to be formed was Beta Chapter of Cornell university. It was April 5, 1912, that a chapter of Alpha Psi was granted to a group of men at K. S. A. C, the chapter at this school being Eta chapter. The first chapter house was at 909 Fremont. In 1918 several members of Delta chapter came to Kansas State and took an active part in school life. The last of these men graduated in ' 21. It will always be felt that these men had a very prominent part in making Eta chapter what it is today. i o:y::: j j jyi i= iL r 1 s. :2. m : eta Bbeta T l Founded :it Miami University, Oxford, Ohio, 18:!9 GAMMA EPSILON CHAPTER Installed October. 1914 Flower — Red Rose Co(or.s— Pink and Blue P )?(ra((OH -The Beta Thetii Pi HISTORY Gamma Epsilon chapter of Beta Theta Pi had its beginning October 14, 1901, and was known as the Sphinx club. It was the oldest existing society of the nature of a fraternity organization to be installed at K. S. A. C. Its first definite step toward a fraternity came in 1906 when it moved out of its club rooms down town into its first home on the corner of Nmth Street and Poyntz Avenue. Here the Sphinx club first became known to the public as Tau Omega Sigma, a Greek letter fraternity. In 1908 the alumni of the organization formed a stock company and built a home at 821 Osage which was occupied by the fraternity until 1913. The organization first formally peti- tioned Beta Theta Pi in 1913 and again in 1914, at which time the charter was granted. In- stallation as a chapter of Beta Theta Pi took place on October 17 of that year. At the time of installation the fraternity home was on the corner of Sixth Street and Poyntz Avenue. The present home at 1614 Fairchild was purchased and occupied in 1916.

Application for Delta Tau Delta was made at the next annual conclave, but the charter was not granted until 1919. Sixty-five Aztex were initiated into Delta Tau Delta when Gamma Chi chapter was installed, June 6, 1919. The fraternity now carries 148 men on its rolls. The Aztex first home was at 1030 Fremont, a later residence at 901 Moro. The present home, 1224 Fremont, was bought in 1916. During 12 years of fraternity existence, Aztex and Delta have taken a pride in doing their share in college and intercollegiate activities. F o:y Zy i= iyi T z E, 1 Q :2. 27% _ Founded at K. S. A. C, April 20, 1920 Colors — Brown and Gold HISTORY The Kappa Phi Alpha fraternity was officially announced at its spring banquet, April 20, 1920. It was organized for the purpose of promoting fraternal spirit, mutual helpfulness and social enjoyment among its members. In the spring of 1915 several of the leading non-fraternity men of the college began working toward the organization of a new social fraternity at K. S. A. C. While the plans for the or- ganization were still incomplete, these men entered the military service and did not return until the fall of 1919. They then took up their work where they had left it, and in a short time the constitution for the organization was complete. The fraternity is incorporated under the laws of the state of Kansas, its charter being dated June 4, 1920. The fraternity was first located at 1126 Bluemont Avenue, but soon outgrew that domicile and was moved to 1116 Bluemont where it is housed at the present time. The house mother, Mrs. Alice E. Marcotte, has been with the fraternity since its organization. i c : jL J jy j i z m Founded al the University of Virginia in 1869 GAMMA CHI CHAPTER Installed June 6, 1919 Colors — Scarlet, White and Emerald G reen Flou IKappa Sigma -Lily of the Valley Publications ( Star and Crescent Caduceus HISTORY The Kappa Sigma fraternity was first organized at the University of Bologna in Italy during the fourteenth century.

During the first decade of its e. istence in the United States it made a rapid growth in the southern states, later spreading to all parts of the country. At present there are 91 active chapters.

The men forming this chapter re- turned in the fall of 191 ' 2 and rented a house. Membership continued to grow and with added strength the critical point of a new fraternity was passed. In 1912, 20 of the men returned and through their efforts a petition was presented to Pi Kappa Alpha for admission as a chapter of that order. After a long period of waiting a charter was granted and all the members of Phi Gamma Theta were initiated into the Alpha Omega chapter of the national fraternity. The fraternity occupied the house at 1104 Vattier Street for four years. In the fall of 1918 Alpha Omega opened another house at 931 Os age Street which was occupied only about two months when it was turned over to S. A. T. C. The latter organization was disbanded in December. At the beginning of the second semester, activities were resumed. During the summer of 1918 several of the men spent a great deal of time selecting and buying a hou.se. The present home at 331 North Seventeenth Street is the result of their efforts. f ■  : yW ' ' ' rr , i oyc jiy j xj-i j iL Sigma Ipha HEpsllon Founded at Tuscaloosa, Alabama, March 9, 1856 KANSAS BETA CHAPTER Installed January 24, 1913 Flower — Violet Colors — Purple and Gold Publicalion—-rhe Record HISTORY In the fall of 1905 six Manhattan boys who had just entered the Kansas State Agricultural college met and organized a local academic fraternity. Later the local petitioned Phi Sigma Chi. Meetings were held in a room which the members had rented over a down town store. Phi Sigma Chi continued as an active chapter until 1909. During this year the members decided to petition Sigma Alpha Epsilon but were advised that the liklihood that their petition would be accepted would be greatly increased if they petitioned as a college local rather than an academic national. The result was that the organization turned its charter into Phi Sigma Chi fraternity, although the members retained their membership, and reorganized as a local college fraternity known as Phi Alpha Theta. The down town room was abandoned and a house rented near the college. In December 1912 Phi Alpha Theta was granted a charter at the Sigma Alpha Eisilon national convention. The chapter was installed January 24, 1913, and was the first national college fraternity to enter Kansas State Agricultural college. The members of Sigma Alpha Epsilon were also the first at the college to build their own fraternity house. It was completed in 1915. It is a three story stucco structure of Spanish Mission architecture. Since the installation of the chapter 191 men have been initiated into the chapter. if i iif j oj c j: j= Tyi T z JEij tl O:y: :F Tjrj T Z E, Sigma ytn Founded at ' ir(;inia Military Institute, January 1, 1869 Fhurr -White Rose BETA KAPPA CHAPTER Installed May 23, 1913 Colors — Black, White and Gold Piiblinilion— The Delta HISTORY On October 28, 1901, Iota chapter of Kappa Delta Pi fraternity was established.

By the end of the academic year the club was put upon what was virtually a fraternity basis, inasmuch as new members could be admitted only by a unanimous vote. This club maintained a house during the school year 1915-16. During the spring of 1916 the name of the organization was changed to Epsilon Epsilon Epsilon and recognition as a fraternity was obtained from the college authorities. The formal announcement was made at a banquet held June 7, 1916. During the fall of 1916 the question of nationalization was considered and a formal petition was prepared and presented to the Grand Chapter of Sigma Phi Epsilon. A charter was granted to this local by the national organization and installation services w ere held February 23, 1918. The fraternity chapter house, which was purchased in 1920, is located at 221 North Delaware Avenue. More than 100 men are now members of this chapter. i oiy Zy jPTyi jpz E, iDclta Oau Organized May 21, 1919 Flou-er -Sweet Pea Colors -Purple and Gold The Phi Delta Tau fraternity existed as a club for some time, but changed its status to that of a local fraternity on May 21, 1919, with ten charter members.

The dual character of the organization continued until 1915, when the Catholic boys rented a house and conducted it under the name of Knights of Columbus House. The boys lived in this house until the fall of 1918 when the war necessitated its abandonment. The organization remained active, however and in the spring of 1920 it reorganized under the Greek letters Phi Gamma, and purchased the present home at 1031 Bluemont Avenue.

Sigma Tau was founded in 1904 at the University of Nebraska for the purpose of grouping together those students who had the schola-stic. social and practical requirements of a successful engineer. The mother chapter spread her influence to other schools where chapters have since been established, until the national fraternity is now composed of twelve chapters and two alumni associations. Epsilon Chapter at Kansas State was chartered in 1912 by 18 men. Its membership consists of men in the junior and senior years who rank in the upper third of their class in scholarship and who are deemed to meet the other requirements of Sigma Tau.

At present Phi Alpha Mu has 18 active members who are promoting leadership and scho ' ar- ship among the women students at K. S. A. C. Since there is no other national fraternity for women of this type in the colleges of the middle west, Phi Alpha Mu is looking forward to nationalization. 276 First How— McPherson, Plyley.

HISTORY Theta Sigma Phi as a national organization dates back to 1909 when the Alpha chapter was established at the University of Washington. Mu chapter was installed at K. S. A. C. June 8, 1916. The membership of Theta Sigma Phi, which is an honorary and professional journalistic sorority, is limited to upperclassmen who are doing creditable work along practical as well as scholastic lines of journalistic endeavor. The Matrix is the national publication of Theta Sigma Phi. The recently organized Women ' s National Journalistic Register, which is open to all wo- men engaged in journalistic work, is supervised by the national organization of Theta Sigma Phi. One of the principal activities of the local chapter of the sorority is the work done in cooperation with Sigma Delta Chi, on The Brown Bull, the college humorous magazine. -?e.c: p -Z j Tyi i 2: E, 1 :2. 2.; Sigma iDelta (11)1 Top «0H ' — Prof. H.

Blackledge Sigma Delta Chi was installed at Kansas State May 4, 1914. Since that date it has been continuously active. The chapter has always been composed of the most active and the most able men of the li journalism department. It has been the special aim of this group to encourage journalistic en- deavor in the college, and to uphold the highest standards ;uiil ideals in the public press. To pf! fiirnish that great institution, the public press, with leaders ami workers who are men of the highest type morally and mentally, and who recognize and ai rept the i;reat burden of responsi- bility which falls upon those who would serve the public through the printed page; this has been the high purpose of Sigma Delta Chi. The eighth national convention of Sigma Delta Chi will be held at the Kansas State Agricultural college in the fall of 1922. The local chapter and the school looks forward to this convention as one of the great events in the life of the school and the department. ' i o:y: iL j i i j z Zeta Kappa Psi, a national honorary forensic fraternity for women, was organized at K. S. A. C. in the spring of 1914, by eight girls who secured a charter from the state and perfected a local organization. Early in 1917, the absolute success of the organization as a local being established, the fraternity became national with Gamma Zeta of the University of Oregon and Kappa Rho of the University of Minnesota as the Beta and Gamma chapters. Chapters have since been installed at the Iowa State Teachers college, the Kansas State normal, and the Oregon Agri- cultural college. The first national convention was held at K. S. A.

KANSAS GAMMA CHAPTER Co(ors— Cerise and Cream Puhlication — The Forensic ' Pi Kappa Delta is a comparatively young fraternity having been established at Ottawa University in January, 1913. In 1914, a group of men who had won letters in debate were igranted Kansas Gamma Chapter. Conspicuous among the early workers were President H. J. ' Waters and Dr. J. R. MacArthur, now national president of Pi Kappa Delta. Before being considered for membership to Pi Kappa Delta, a student must have partici- ' pated in at least one inter-collegiate debate contest, which means at K. S. A. C. the winning of a debate K. Pi Kappa Delta, nationally, is a fraternity composed of both men and women the matter whether men or women may be members being left to the individual chapters. At K. S. A.

Holcombe HISTORY Purple Masque, honorary dramatic frateinity, was organized in December, 1915, from the old K. S. A. C. dramatic club. In the spring of 1921, the organization was changed into an order of three degrees so as to give more students a chance to become associated with dramatic work. Green Masque, first degree of Purple Masque, elects to membership students who do good work and show promise upon their appearance in some college play. Purple Masque confers its second degree on Green Masque members in good standing who successfully carry a promi- nent part in a college play. Star Masque, third and highest degree is conferred upon Purple Masque members who have been faithful in all fraternal duties and have shown exceptional ability in several college productions. Purple Masque added another play to its list of successful productions when it presented during festival week, Saturday, May 7, 1921, Clyde Fitch ' s The Giri With the Green Eyes. Rowena Thornburg starred in the original Clara Bloodgood role of Jinny. It required the versatility of such a girl as Rowena to portray the part of the charming bride in such a way as to make every one love her and yet portray her cruel jealousy. Rocky Bryan played opposite Miss Thornburg in the role of John Austin, her husband. The supporting principals of the cast were Kennith Carter, as Geoffry Tillman, brother of Jinny; Adelaide May Smith, as Ruth Ches- ter; and Lucile Whan in the role of maid. Claramary Smith and Herbert McClelland did ex- cellent character work in the roles of Jinny ' s parents. Clever comedy work was done by Hamilton Riggs as Peter and Gladys Newton as Mis. CuUingham.. Other members of the cast, all of whom played finished parts were: bridesmaids, Mildred Wright, Margaret Ansdell, and Gertrude Conroy; housemaid, Faye Strong; butler, Clifford Jolly; Mrs. Lopp and daughter, Osceola Burr and Queenie Hart; French couple, Renna Rosenthal and Marion Smith; German couple, Alice Husted and Floyd Works; tourists, Marie Correll, L. L. Haggart, Anna Best, and Helene Bentley. Manhattan audiences have come to expect much of a Florence Heizer play. They were not disappointed in The Girl with the Green Eyes, which in artistic stage setting and capable characterization of its unusually large cast was fully worthy of her genius. A Belasco interior could hardly have been more complete than the drawing room in which was the wedding scene of the first act. -? oj : z J iyj 2= z , 1 :2. 2, purple !Jttasqui 2!)ramatic Jratcrttitv ((tont ' 6) In the spring of 1921 Purple Masque, under the direction of Miss Heizer. presented two one-act plays, Zona Gale ' s Neighbors and The Wicked Winder of Clocks, for the benefit of the student loan fund. During the fall and spring of 1921-22 the members of Purple Masque coached and presented a series of one-act plays for the purpose of selecting material for Green Masque and college plays. On November 12 Vorin Whan, Rowena Thornburg. and Kenneth Carter represented Purple Masque by giving in chapel the one-act play The Strike. directed by Ray E. Holcombe. On December 12, 1921, Prof. Ray E. Holcombe, who had become a member of the public speaking department in the fall, made his debut in Aggie dramatics by successfully presenting the first Purple Masque play of the season, Clarence, the Booth Tarkington comedy. Herman Fleming splendidly portrayed the character role of Clarence, the soldier who had been in the army. Maurice Laine, as Mr. Wheeler, Margaret Ansdell, as Mrs. Wheeler, James Al- bright, as Bobby and Louise Mowry, as Cora, played finished parts. Other members of the ca.st all Purple Masque members who lived up to their reputations made in former productions, were: Claramary Smith, as Mrs. Martyn, Renna Rosenthal, as Violet Pinney. Queenie Hart as Delia, Vorin Whan, as Dinwiddle, and Clifford Jolley, as Hubert Stem. This cast was seni on a tour to advertise K. S. A. C. successfully producing Clarence at Marysville.

Founded at Kansas State Agricultural College in 1917 Insignia — Official Athletic K The purpose of this organization is to promote friendliness among the women of K. S. A. C. who have won honors in Athletics, and to promote all things pertaining to the welfare of Women ' s athletics. The K sweater is an emblem of achievement in athletics and is awarded by the Wo- men ' s Athletic association. K sweaters were first given to K. S. A. C. women in 1917 and those who earned the required number of points to possess this award were organized as an honorary group of the W. A. A.

The petition wa.s accepted, and on May 23 installation took place, the local Quill becoming the Beta or Ur Rune chapter of the National organization. Mr. E. A. Vaughn, ' 14, became the first chancellor. The installation services were held in the dungeon- like Forum room where the black and white bunting, the black shaded lamps, and the black robed installing officers from K. U. sufficiently impressed the 48 initiates. The banquet was given at Harrison ' s Cafe. At present the society is limited to 30 members, chosen on merit of manuscripts presented. This year our local chapter is honored in having one of its members as the High Chancellor of the High Witan, Professor N. A. Crawford, a writer of note.

On June 2, 1911, President Henry Jackson Waters attached his signature to the constitu- tion of the Forum and it came into existence. All of the credit for the founding of the society is due to Professor Searson, father of debate at the Kansas State Agricultural college. It was through his earnest efforts that the society was sanctioned by the president. The society is open only to those students who have either represented their society in a regular contest of oratory or won a place on an inter-collegiate debate squad. The Forum has the authority to grant K ' s to the official inter-collegiate debaters. Winning a K in debate is as great an honor as winning one in athletics. During the eleven years of its existence 377 students have become Forum members and have repeated the Forum slogan: The Forum owl sat on an oak. The more he saw the less he spoke, The less he spoke the more he heard; Let us strive to be like that old bird. j o os ' z j jyi i z B:, Oriani | !%liviti « s ' s fis H ' W-i-i 1 o :2. :2 m Clubs and paMcotMs 2 o:y i x i T z £: - Opal Seeber, Esther McStay, K.

The Federation of Co-operative clubs has for its purpose the fostering of good feeling and fellowship among the members of the various co-operative clubs. It also serves as a medium for the interchanging of mutually helpful ideas. The Federation of Co-operative clubs was organized in the fall of 1920. During its brief existence it has grown in influence and prestige in college affairs having received recognition from the S. S. G.

At the suggestion of Dean Farrell, Alpha Zeta called a mass meeting of all agricultural students at which it was decided to organize, and a committee was appointed to draw up a constitution. At the annual smoker held in the Community House, the constitution submitted by the committee was adopted. Permanent officers were elected at a meeting on March 3, and the association settled down to fulfill the mission for which it had been organized. It was organized for the purpose of uniting the efforts of the students of the division for more effective work, maintaining and supporting all meritorious student activities of the division and conducting such other business as might from time to time come before the agricultural student body. Since its organization, the Agricultural Association has undertaken two projects: the annual Ag Fair the first one of which was held on May 3, 1921, and the publication of The Kansas Agricultural Student, a periodical, which first appeared last fall. So far, both have been successful. i c c u r jyj T z E C. M. Wilhoite J. S. Stewart B. Roberts Fred Ir Karl Means J. W. Farmer Ol)e IKansas Agricultural Stu6ent Editor Earl Means Associate Editor J.

HISTORY The Klod and Kernal Klub, commonly called Tri K, was organized in the fall of 1916 by Prof. R. I. Throckmortin, W. E. Grimes, and G. C. Gibbons. It started with 20 charter members, and has increased to a total membership of 120. The purpose of the club is to develop a spirit of goodfellowship among the students and faculty members of the agronomy department. Social meetings are often held at the homes of the faculty members. The first Grain Judging contest was put on by the club in 1917, and this has become an annual event at K. S. A. C. Tri K is now cooperating with similar clubs at other agricultural colleges in a movement to form a National Agronomy club. FACULTY MEMBERS R. E. Hensel S. C. Salmon J. W. Zahnley M. C. Sewell E. S.

Student branches of the Institute are maintained at the larger technical schools for the same purpose. The branch at Kansas State was organized in 1908. Its work was carried on separately from the regular seminar, which was added for juniors and seniors in 1912 as a required subject. Meetings were discontinued in 1917 on account of the war, and in 1919 the A. I. E. E. and re- quired seminar were combined, with the A. I. E. E. officers taking charge of the seminar meetings. The present branch was organized in April 1921, its regular bi-weekly meetings taking the place of seminar for the juniors cni seniors. ROLL Abbott, Earl David.son, C. C. Hopkins, H. D. Nordeen, F.

The Kansas State Engineer, the official publication of the Engineering association, is pub- lished by the students enrolled in the division of engineering. It is issued four times during the school year: October, December, February, and April. It is devoted to the best interests of engineering, and reaching, as it does, every engineer enrolled, has become a potential factor in the promotion of engineering at K. S. A. C. The Kansas State Engineer is a member of Engineering College Magazines Associated. Through exchange service it goes to all important universities in the United States. It also goes to the larger high schools and to the county engineers of Kansas.

Pratt HISTORY Alan Dailey The Kansas State Collegian, official organ of the student body at K. S. A. C, had its beginning in The Student ' s Herald, the first issue of which appeared January 8, 1896. It was a weekly publication of four pages. In the early days of the paper it had from five to seven editors and one reporter. Long and scholarly articles on various subjects, written by students, were printed. These all appeared on the middle and back pages. No headlines were used then and all the news was placed on the front page in the form of locals. Sport writeups comprised one small paragraph. The Student ' s Herald continued as the students ' publication for the next 17 years. In April, 1913, the name of the paper was changed to that of The Kansas Aggie, the first volume of which appeared April 3 of that year. By this time the growth of the college had warranted a semi-weekly paper. The Kansas Aggie survived until April 25, 1914 when it became known as the Kansas State Collegian which title it still retains. The Collegian is published twice weekly and has a circulation of 2.000. It exchanges with every other publication of any size in the country. Herbert F. Hemker, H. D. Collins, Vice-President President George D. Morris, Harold P. Wheeler, Business Manager Condueior R. Bainer, Treasurer E. E. Huflf, Secretary « Last April the band made a tour of eastern Kansas and Missouri, playing seven concerts in 40 hours. Concerts were given at Topeka, Atchison, St. Joseph, Kansas City and Argentine. During the past year the band has made over 50 appearances at formal concerts, ' open air concerts, pep sessions, parades, and send-offs. This does not include the activities of the military band. Last fall President Jardine succeeded in securing 80 blue dress uniforms for the band. When Prof. H. P. Wheeler came here in the fall of 1919 the band began a new era of develop- ment, and due to his ability, personality and tireless efforts, the band has become what it is today. In September, 1921, feeling that a closer union should be formed between the first and second bands, a committee drafted a constitution which was presented and accepted at a joint meeting of the two bands on December 12. 0. F. Fisher was elected the first president. The band has thus far held two social events. The first, a banquet in honor of Mr. Fisher, and the second a smoker at which 60 members were present. The Band association, although still in its infancy, is bringing the band members into a closer relationship with each other and is doing much to foster good fellowship and to advance band music at K.

This organization opened up a field of activity for women in the various sports, and we now find such events as swimming carnivals, indoor gymnastic meet, and tennis, track, basketball, hockey, baseball, and tennis tournaments. Hiking is an important activity and the W. A. A. girls take five- and ten-mile hikes to vicinities around Manhattan. In May, 1920, Miss Louise Tausche secured a chapter of Red Cross Life Saving corps for the college girls. This organization encourages the college women to engage in the various sports and gives points to those making class teams and other awards. A K sweater is given when 800 points are earned and this year there have been twelve sweaters presented. To aid in financing its activities the W. A. A. gave an entertainment, November 10, called Frivol which was a great success both as an entertainment and financially. Other good times have been the Annual Costume party for new girls. Hockey Spread, Basketball Spread, and Hare and Hound Race. The Athletic Conference of American College Women was held in Boulder, Colorado. April 14 and 15, and Miss Lillian Rommel and Miss Hattie Betz represented this chapter. I O ' Z J XJ ' I F Z Ol)e ! ro V!i ! ull HISTOIIV It was in the early spriiiji of 1920 that the iirst forces, event- ually resulting in the creation of a college humorous magazine, began to stir themselves. After mature and careful consideration the apt title of Brown Bull was bestowed on the publication and the initial number came forth in May of 1920. Milton S. Eisenhower was the guiding spirit of the first three issues and much credit is due him for the firm base upon which the Brown Bull is now established. His successors have ably upheld the standards he set. Edward Shaffer was responsible for the Chaperone Number. R. L. Palmer directed the Wampus Cat Number. Homer G. Bryson dictated the policies of the Knickie Knumber, while R. C. Nichols was the master mind behind the early spring issue, the Dumb-bell Number. The Brown Bull was started by Sigma Delta Chi, professional journalistic fraternity, and the first two numbers were published under its auspices. With the February, 1921, issue, Theta Sigma Phi, women ' s honorary journalistic fraternity, began to participate in the publication of the magazine. Now a Brown Bull board is being organized, composed of repre- sentatives from both fraternities, to take full charge of the magazine. Contributions to the Brown Bull are received from all students of the Kansas State Agricultural college. In this way the publica- tion is made truly representative of the student body. Banquets for successful contributors to the magazine have adfled much interest to each issue. The Brown Bull goes out to many Kansas high schools. It has been quoted by magazines in all sections of the country, and quotations for use on the screen have been reserved by the Inter- collegiate Films Company. i Lillian Ayers Frances Batdorf Marion Brookover Georgia Belle Crihfield Batdorf Watts Crihfield Peck Thornburg Dickens Zeller Ayers Sherman society for Senior Women founded in 1916 MEMBERSHIP Elizabeth Dickens Luella Sherman Esther McStay Claramary Smith Jean Moore Florence Stauffer Ruth Peck Rowena Thornburg Helen Thayer Thayer Brookover Manglesdorff Evans Sybil Watts Lulu Mae Zeller Louise Mangelsdorf Clara Evans i c c j:y j jyi 2 2: Top Row -Laine.

Simpson HISTORY The Disabled War Veterans club, composed of men at K. S. A. C. who are under the jurisdiction of the Federal Board of Vocational Education, was organized January 18, 1921. The club was formed with a view of furthering the spiiit of fellowship and cooperation resultmg from service in the United States Army. The club is a social organization. Its activities extend to all the disabled veterans. The club makes possible unified action in all matters of policy affecting the vocational students. The organization at the beginning of the year 1921 was only local. As conditions affecting the disabled veterans extend beyond the immediate jurisdiction of the college, the Veterans decided to affiliate with the national organization which has headquarters at Cincinnati. Ohio, and Washington, D. C. The veterans voted to apply to the national organization for a charter. This was granted July 1, 1921. About 50 Federal Board men entered school at the opening of the Fall semester in 1919. Since that time the number has increased to over 300. The men are enrolled in every depart- ment of the college and in various trade courses. Dean J. T. Willard was supervising the men at first until the numbers grew so large the St. Louis district office installed a representative to take charge of the trainees. His duty is to look after the matters relating to the work of the men. O. W. Price held this position until the beginning of the second semester, when he was transferred to another school. He was succeeded by E. L. Littleton who held this position until the beginning of the spring semester, 1922. Howard A. Joslin represents the Federal Board at the present time. i c c Ji i= xj ' i i= z :e:, 4 Adee, James — Manhattan Azbell, John T.— Fredericktown, Mo. Aikens, E. L.— Manhattan Aspley, R.

The association was then, as now, directed by a cabinet of earnest students and an advisory board of loyal and faithful town and college women. Soon the need of having some one person to devote all her time to the organization became apparent and in 1898 Miss Ellen Norton, a graduate of this college, became the first secretary. Ever since its formation here the Y. W. C. A. has grown. In 1905 there were 240 members and at the present time there are 630. The Young Women ' s Christian Association is responsible for two of the most important college events of the year, the May Fete and Aggie Pop night. The former was first organized by the Y. W. C. A. in 1912. and the latter in 1915. Throughout its history the organization has sought to make the principles of Christ real on the campus, to cultivate world vision, and to be ready at all times to be of service to the college and especially to the women of this institution.

M. C. A. started. It was in 1885 that a national secretary of the Y came to Manhattan and started the organization. C. A. Murphy of the class of ' 87 was elected the first secretary and D. G. Robertson of the class of ' 86 was the first president. This first organization started by providing some non-sectarian form of religious instruction. The Sunday meetings which the Y started thrived for many years, and grew until they placed the Y first among the organizations of the college. In 1890 the Y published the first student ' s directory and the same year the custom of meeting all new students at the train was started. These two move- ments did much to relieve the inconveniences of the freshmen. One of the big tasks undertaken and pushed to a successful end was the building of the Y building at the corner of Eleventh and Fremont Streets. The campaign to raise this fund was started in 1904 and completed in 1908. The student body during this period donated an average of forty dollars per man. Other funds came from Manhattan business men, alumni, and the national Y. For several years after the completion of the new building it served as the center of school activities and as a gymnasium for all the varsity teams. At this time the Y employed in addition to a general secretary an athletic director. The big man in the history of the local Y is W. W. McLean, who was the moving spirit in the building movement. He organized weekly religious meetings and Bible study classes, and his administration of Y affairs is one of the brightest pages in college history. In 1918 McLean resigned, and to work with the boys in the S. A. T. C, two men were employed Cool at the building and J. S. Daniels on the campus. At the end of the war Daniels resigned and Dr. A. A. Holtz was called. Since that time Doctor Holtz has continued as general secretary.

TEpwortl) League The Manhattan churclies have as a part of their program, organizations and activities especially jjlanned to meet the needs of the students. The Senior Epworth League of the Methodist Episcopal church is such an organiza- tion. The Sunday afternoon fellowship hours of friendly good cheer and the week night parties help to drive away that homesick feeling, to furnish excellent opportunities to meet young people from other Christian homes, and to form those congenial friendships that make college life so vitally worth while. The Epworth League is a laboratory in Christian Leadership. This year Henrietta Jones is the president. Belle Hagans, K. W. Miller, Gail Roderick, and Hubert Collins are the vice-presidents who carry the responsibility of the work of the different departments. However, each member has the opportunity to crown his college education with the highest type of religious development. He may plan devotional services, attend mission study classes, do social service work, go on e.xtension trips, or lead recreational groups. Throughout this entire program the Epworth League strives to keep before the members the motto, Look up, lift up. LIFE SERVICE LEAGUE OFFICERS First Semester Florence Johnson Second Semester Frances Knerr President Vice-President Alice Jennings Recording Secretary Orpha Russell Lois Willson Corresponding Secretary Lois Willson Esther Russell Treasurer Albert Bridenstine Penn Chambers The Life Service League was organized during the school year of 1920-21 under the direction of Rev. and Mrs. M. S. Collins. The membership consists of those individuals who are contemplating entering Christian life service and those who already have chosen their specific field. It afi ' ords its members an opportunity to study conditions, problems, and opportunities for service as they exist in both the home and foreign fields. In addition to the study and preparation for future service, its members now give of their time and service to various forms of work at Manhattan and over the state. xv4-4- 4yx vit .?e,c: ' j iyi i z E i liL Top Row— Myrtle Dubbs, Beth Hepler, Orlena Baker, Eileen Davis, Claramary Smith, Katy Feary.

Harbord, ' 86, major general in the United States army and assistant chief of staff, is one of the most prominent and popular alumni of the Kansas State Agricultural college. As assistant chief of staff. General Harbord is outranked only by General John J. Pershing. General Harbord ' s army experience reads like a romance, comments I. D. Graham, honorary alumnus, who wrote An Appreciation of Harbord for ' 86 class book of 1921. He and William Allen White both lost out in the same competitive examination for entrance to West Point two years after Harbord received his degree from K. S. A. C. The Aggie enlisted in 1889, received a commission in 1891. Following service in Cuba, he was sent to the Philip- pines in 1902, where he remained 12 years, helped organize the constabulary, and was active in pacifying the Islands. He sailed for France in May, 1917, with the rank of lieutenant colonel, served one year as chief of staff, commanded the Marine brigade at Chateau Thierry in June, 1918, and was placed in command of the Second Division in July, with the rank of major general. Need for greater efficiency in the Service of Supply called him to reorganize that department in August. By the time the armistice was signed he had that department functioning efficiently. In 1919 General Harbord was appointed head of the mission to Armenia and the Near East, Returning to the States in 1920, he was commissioned a major general in the regular army, in command of the Second Division, and a few months later was made assistant chief of staff. Among the decorations received by General Harbord are: Distinguished Service Medal (United States , Commander, Legion of Honor iFrancei. Knight Commander, St. Michael and St. George (Great Britain i. Grand Officer, Order of the Crown iB Igiumi. Croix de Guerre with two palms i Francei, and decorations from Italy. Montenegro, and the Republic of Panama. The college has had the pleasure of honoring General Harbord twice since the Great War. He was given the honorary degree of Doctor of Law by his .Mma Mater at a special convocation in 1920. Last fall he dedicated the memorial tiag pole in the gvmnasium (juadrangle, presented to the college by the class of 1920. .M ' f i o:y:: zZy j xyi i z , Emma (Haines) Bowen, ' 67 Manhattan Our First Girl Graduate It is rather an interesting commentary on alumni in general that the alumni association of the Kansas State Agricultural college was first organized by students instead of by alumni. Also that it originally had an unwritten motto, strong as the unwritten law: Let the treasurer foo. the bills. The class of ' 79 started the Alumni association, 12 years after the first class was graduated from the college. In other words, Harry C. Rushmore, ' 79, is the Dean of the Alumni associa- tion. Under his leadership, the cla s of ' 79 wrote a constitution and by-laws, and declared the Alumni association in existence, while its members still were seniors. No meeting of the iation, as such, was held in ' 79, but the first annual meeting was held under this consti- tution First Reunion in 1S7U There had been several alumni reunions previous to this time, the first one in 1874. No records of these meetings are available. At the 1880 meeting the following officers were elected: George H. Failyer, ' 77, president: A. N. Godfrey, ' 78, vice-president; Harry C. Rushmore, ' 79, j o c i= i i 2 i je: 7 2r secretary; A. T. Blain, ' 79, treasurer: Noble A. Richardson, ' 80, marshal. The marshal seems to have been an heirloom from the literary society whose constitution was adopted bodily by the enthusiastic Seventy-niners when the association was formed. The Industrialist, ever alert, carried the following account of the first meeting: We understand that the alumni meeting, called for last Tuesday afternoon, was largely attended, and that a thorough organization was perfected. We have received no report of the meeting thus far, but are informed that a grand reunion of the alumni will take place at the college at next Commencement. We hope to be able to give the names of the oHic rs ne.xt week. Evidently the secretary took the hint, and furnished : e of the Industrialist carried the names of the ofiicers. report of the meeting, for the An alumni banquet, with an address by W. D.

The principal address at the 188:3 ban()uet v;is (Iclivired liy John J. Points, ' 67, a member of the first class graduated from the college. Mr. Points, by the way, writes that he expects to attend the commencement exercises and annual alumni-senior dinner this year. Mr. Gilbert, whose illness in 1880 prevented his appearance on the program, delivered an excellent address at the commencement reunion in 1884. A Shortage of Treasurers A dearth of candidates for treasurer in 1884 apparently caused a readjustment in the as- sociation. The custom was to finance the dinner and reunions by contributions from those present. This left the treasurer with a deficit of from 15 to 20 dollars to be met from his own bank account after each reunion. At the 1884 meeting it was decided to hold the li:iiii|iii ' ts triennially. This custom was followed for a quarter of a century, when the annual fai-ulty- alumni banquet replaced it, to be again replaced in turn by the present annual alunini-scnior dinner, commencement day. Alumni Association in 190(S An article in the ' 06 Banner — one of the ancestors of the Royal Purple — tells the story of the objects and attainments of (he Alumni association up to that time, and in fact until a decade ago: In the language of the present constitution the object of the association is the promotion of the interests of the college and of acquaintance among its graduates. The latter point has been well attained, not only by means of the triennial reunions but by the informal ones held in the intervening years, which are to many more enjoy- able than the triennials and nearly, if not quite, as well attended. There is now in progress a movement looking toward the publication of an alumni magazine by the association. This college has no more active and helpful friends than some of its alumni, yet while individual ' promotion of the interests of the college ' has been accomplished, it can scarcely be maintained that the Alumni a.ssociation as such has done much. From the nature of its present organization, l y wliich action must depend upon the .sentiment of those who happen to be present a ' the business meeting commencement week, little continuity of effort can be expected, since those present one year are likely to be almost entirely different from those present the previous year or the one following. Re.sident alumni may be present with some regularity, but they should not expect, nor be expected, to direct the affairs of the association. It seems evident hat no sustained poli,cy looking toward promoting the interests of the college, or carrying out any large plans, will be possible until means are adopted whereby all alumni, whether or not in attendance at business meetings, can have equal opportunity to propose action, and to vote on proposed action. Such plans are in suc- cessful operation in other large societies. Struggles for Recognition Not that the work of the Alumni association had been confined to annual reunions, tri- ennial banquets and addresses, and the election of officers. The foregoing article in a way does not do justice to the association of 25 or SO years ago. . s far back as 1894 the Alumni associa- tion had taken action toward ha ing alumni appointed on the board of regen s. This board was replaced by the board of administration for all the state institutnons of higher learning in 1913. Resolutions were adopted in 1894 urging the appointment of alumni on the board. A committee presented the names of five alumni to the governor the following winter for ap- pointment, but the recommendations w-ere placed on file. In 1898 W. H. Phipps. ' 95, was named on the board of regents. He was the first alumnus so honored. : .- ! i oiy Zy r jjrj 2= z £:. H M Harry Umberger, ' 05 President of the Alumni Association In 1899 it was voted that a committee of seven (afterward increased to nine) members be appointed to appoint a committee in every county to help keep up the work for our college. This was the first step in the creation of the present advisory board, and led finally to the em- ployment of a full-time executive secretary to work in conjunction with the advisory board and under the board of directors in promoting the interests of the college. This first committee issued a circular to alumni pointing out the following ways in which the alumni could work for the college: ( 1 1 By bringing the work of the college before the leading farmers, business men, statesmen, and newspapers of the state, and (2 ) by helping the college to place its cata- logs and circulars in the hands of the teachers and in the schools of the state. Detailed suggestions also were mad e as to the furnishing of news of alumni, extending mailing lists for experiment station bulletins, working up farmers ' institutes, and so forth. Settled Engineering Policy Ten years later the need for such a program was made evident. A systematic campaign to limit the sphere of work of the college culminated in a bill in the legislature to abolish engineering courses at the college. The campaign was opened by the calling of a joint confer- ence of the members of the boards of regents of the three state institutions of higher learning to define their spheres of work. This conference was called in 1908. It soon developed that the real purpose was to annihilate the engineering courses of the college. The conference itself got nowhere in particular. Af er the fall elections, it was recommended by the head of another state institution, in his biennial report to the legislature, that the legislature settle the matter by abolishing engineering at the Kansas State Agricultural college, or, better still, by combining the two institutions under one board and one executive. The bill was introduced to do away with engineering. It had been preceded by a barrage of news- - : i ?

Will E. Smith, ' 93, now practicing law at Wamego, is given credit by Harry C. Rushmore, ' 79, for originating the idea. This was in 1903, and as Rushmore notes was promptly followed by the Kaw flood of ' 03. Smith still believes it was in ' 01— the first meeting, not the flood. Other prominent persons in the organization were: S. L. Van Blarcom (now deceased); Phil Creager, ' 91, news editor of the Kansas City Journal (now deceased); Dr. A. T. Kinsley, ' 99; Mrs. Anna (Smith) Kinsley, ' 01; Frank Yoeman, ' 98; and Horace G. Pope, ' 94. Smith was the first president of the association. He was followed by Rushmore, Doctor Kinsley, Mrs. Kinsley, Eusebia (Mudge) Thompson, ' 93, Yoeman, W. H. Phipps, ' 95, and others. This year the presidency has worked its way back to Rushmore. Harry Rushmore of Kansas City generally is known as Dean of the Aggie Alumni. It was Rushmore who organized the first alumni association the year after he was graduated. In fact Rushmore was accused by the old timers of his day of having organized the alimni association before he was graduated. It is a fact that when the class of ' 79 was graduated they had arranged for the first meeting of the alumni association the following commencement and the constitution presented in 1880 was written before the authors were alumni. I am serving my last terra as president, Rushmore wrote in a letter this spring. I have been so often stuck for the job that I am worm eaten, flea bitten, and corrupt. I have sworn an awful swore, that nevermore will this local have for president, Harry Rushmore. Our children down here are in need of a new and younger man. I am going on the turn table, but believe me some other fellow will get on the main line and make this local what it should be. The Kansas City association has held an annual dinner during the winter or early spring every year since it was organized, except during the World war. It also has held a number of summer picnics. The ' 22 annual dinner was held at the First Christian church, Kansas City, Mo., April 21. Among those on the program were President William .Jardine; Dean J. T. Willard, ' 83; Dean Helen B. Thompson, ' 03. The officers of the Kansas City association for the past year were: H. C. Rushmore, ' 79, President. Roy M. Wyatt, ' 09, Vice-President.

The college, which consisted of one building, Bluemont Central hall, was established by the Methodist Episcopal church of Kansas. In 1863 the college was ceded to the state for use as a land grant institution. The ' .Bluemont college building was built on the college farm of 100 acres near the old site of the anti-hog cholera serum plant, which was located about a mile north of the college. The corner stone of the building, which was built of the native stone, was laid May 10, 1859, the construction of the building being in charge of J. H. Brous, the father of three college graduates. Included in Bluemont Central hall was a chapel, with curved ceiling and a cupola where hung the same bell that still rings from Anderson hall- The lettered arch and roof truss are now on the Marlatt farm, in the large stone barn owned by the college and used by the animal husbandry department. Hospital First Building The first building to be erected on the site of the present campus was one wing of a stone barn, which, under President Anderson ' s administration was used as a class room building. This first building was used for a long time as the armory. It is now occupied by th agricultural engineering department. Though the first building to be constructed on the campus, this structure is not the oldest, for when the land was purchased by the college, the farm house which later was used by President Anderson and President Fairchild, as a residence, and is now used as the college hospital, came with it. That the buildings to be erected in the future might have appropriate landscape setting, a design for their location and the improvement of the campus was made in 1872 by Professor Henry Worral of Topeka, but his designs were never used. A second set of plans which provided for a semi-circular court of buildings w.ls drawn up bv Professor Ma.ximilian Kern of Columbia, and his plans were the ones used in the first plant- ings made on the grounds. These plans were followed out by Professor E. A. Popenoe in planting the shelter belt and the main tree groups. T rs.c : rj:, i xyrs,r r E ' a. 1 s, :2. Kislorkal h irt,t. building tu be built on L .impUh Besides the building now used by the agricultural mechanics department which was built in 1872, three structures on the campus were completed before Anderson hall, which was the first of the semi-circular grouping of buildings. These other three buildings were the main part of the shops, built in 1876, the building now used as the chemistry annex, built in the same year, and the old horticultural hall now used as the illustrations building, built in 1877. The cornerstone of the north wing of Anderson hall was laid in 1878 and the wing completed in 1879. The central part of the hall was finished in 1882, and the south wing in 1884, both during President Fairchild ' s administration. An enlargement of the Chapel was made in 1887. The entire building was planned by Anderson, and the three wing construction was necessitated by the fact that it was impossible to secure sufficient appropriation for its entire construction during one fiscal period. E. T. Carr of Leavenworth was the architect for the principal structure, and the plans for the chapel addition were made by Prof. J. D. Walters. Later Buildings Fairchild hall was finished in 1894. Kedzie hall, at present the home of the cafeteria and the journalism department, was completed in 1897. The old agricultural hall, now used as the school of agriculture building was completed in 1900, and Denison hall in 1902. In 1904 both the auditorium and the dairy building were finished. The present horticultural building was completed in 1907, and the home economics hall and the veterinary building in 1908. In 1909 the east wing of the engineering building was finished. In 1911 Nichols gymnasium was com- pleted and in 1912 one wing of the new agricultural building. Waters hall. In 1913 the stock barn was completed. Appropriations have been made for the construction of a cafeteria building to be completed by next fall and for the completion of the west wing of Waters hall, as well as for the construction of a girls ' dormitory and of a building for veterinary cUnics. The engineering building was completed in the fall of 1921. Throughout the construction of the various buildings, the old semi-circular group plan has been kept in mind, and with the completion of the cafeteria at the south entrance of the campus, it is planned to construct a drive which will emphasize the plan. In 1888 the city of Manhattan built a complete system of waterworks with a pumping station near the Blue River and a reservoir on Bluemont Hill. The fo ' lowing winter the legis- lature appropriated $3,000 for an extension of the pipe Une to the college and in July, 1889, the buildings, greenhouse and nursery plots were supplied with an abundance of water. This was a real factor in the experimental work of scientific agricultural research and afforded protection in case of fire. i oiy Zy j iyi F i , 1 2. :2 historical Thi- ( unpus when V ui an.! ! W.-R- Kids The excellent library of K. S. A. C. is of long standing. Early in the days of Bluemont college a library of nearly 3,000 volumes was accumulated, chiefly through the efforts of Mr. Goodnow. who wrote hundreds of letters to eastern publishers, philanthropists and personal friends asking for books. THE PRESIDENTS A broad understanding of the forces that have contributed to the growth of the Kansas State Agricultural college cannot be gained without a knowledge of the men whose lives have been bound up with the history of the institution. The Reverend Joseph Denison who was nom- inated to the presidency March 5, 1863. retained the position for ten years after the conversion of the old Bluemont college into a state school. During the administration of Denison a one-year preparatory course was ofTered. In the four years of the college course there were just four recitations a day. For two years and two terms, one was Latin and another Greek. These studies were replaced by mental and moral sciences during the rest of the course. There were four years of natural sciences and three of mathematics, rounded out in the fourth by more natural sciences. In 1864 President Denison instituted a three year agricultural course, including such practical subjects as soils, plant physiology, care of domestic animals, and horticulture. In 1868 a military course of five terms was added and the preparatory work was lengthened to three years. Later a course in veterinary medicine was added, but these changes were short lived. In 1871 a four year course in mechanic arts was added and the work in agriculture lengthened to four years with two years preparatory. Following his resignation in 1873 President Danison bacamj th? head of Baker university, Baldwin, Kansas. Upon the election of .lohn A. Anderson to the presidency in 1873, ideas completely at van - ance with those of the previous administration were adopted. The new board discontinued the school of literature and reorganized those of agricultural and maehanical arts. The college was one of the first to include instruction in manual training, which wa? mads obligatDry during Anderson ' s administration. It was during AndersDn ' s administration, too, that ths Industrialist was established. The first issue appeared April 24, 1875, and has been published contmuously since that date. The Industrialist was at the tims of its founding, and still is, edited by ths faculty. . John A. Anderson was a vigorous executive with keen insight into the possibilities of vo- cational education. The catalog of 1874 states: Radical changss have bean made since the 1 o Kislorical ■ V- W Joseph Denison, 1863-1873 publication of the last catalogue, and goes on to explain the value of practical training. Three courses are listed in the catalogue of 1874, one for farmers, one for mechanics and one for women. Each is six years in length and requires grammar school examinations or certificates for entrance. One hour of practical hand work is introduced. The courses are chartered, comparing thj time given to three elements: 1. Practical work. 2. Knowledge used in practical work. 3. Aids to practical knowledge. The order of grouping was characteristic of Anderson. But resent- ment was stirred in the souls of many by these revolutionary ideas. Most of the students at this time lived in Manhattan, and the town was torn in factions for and against Latin, which had no place in the new curriculum. The feeUng subsided when time proved the wisdom of the new president ' s policy. Later, as conditions called for economy. President Anderson felt it wise to reduce all the courses into one of only four years. During Anderson ' s administration attendance at chapel at 8:30 each morning was compulsory. The rest of the morning until one o ' clock was divided into fifty minute periods. This same system was continued with little change until the resignation of Anderson in 1879, and all through the administration of President George T. Fairchli, which lasted until 1897. The first elective course appeared in the announcements of 1890-91. In 1897 the brief sway of populism in Kansas resulted in the ousting of President Fairchild. His administration was more conservative than Anderson ' s, but under him the work did not lose any of the progressive character it had gained under Anderson. Thomas Elmer Will was chosen to take Fairchild ' s place. His administration lasted only two years. During this time the work was separated into four courses, agricultural, household economics, engineering, and general. Because the populist regime demanded more practical work in economics and political science, these subjects were increased 300 per cent. :!6l F O C ZZy I= jyi T ILy JO, jKistorical I John A. Anders It was in 1899, during the administration of E. R. Nichols, 1899-1909, that short courses were first introduced at the college. A commercial creamery short course, a farmer ' s short course, and a general agricultural short course were offered. Dr. H. J. Waters became president in 1909. He organized the work of the college into five divisions, placing a dean at the head of each. The divisions organized at this time were agriculture, general science, home economics, mechanic arts and college extension. The summer school was lengthened and work was offered by all departments instead of by the home eco- nomics division alone. Entrance requirements were raised from four high school units to eight, and later to fifteen. The school of agriculture was organized with three year sub-collegiate courses in agriculture, mechanic arts, and home economics. Short courses were extended and developed. In 1918 Dr. VV. M. .Jardine succeeded Doctor Waters. Since the beginning of his adminis- tration courses in agricultural chemistry, biochemistry, industrial chemistry and rural commerce have been added. AGGIE TRADITIONS To talk of starting an . ggie tradition has a futile .sound to the majority of folk to whom spontaneity is an inborn quality of true tradition. Perhaps, properly speaking, few of our Aggie traditions have sufficient age to be termed traditions, and are rather customs. Certainly two so-called traditions of the Aggie campus are little more than slogans which the students have lived up to with more or less faith. These are the slogans No Smoking on the Campus ' which is in reality not a tradition at all, but is based on an act of the board of regents, and .■}f« George T. Fairchild, 1879-1897 Loyal Aggies Use the Walks, probably invented by some ingenious member of the horti- cultural department for the preservation of the campus beauties. On the whole it is probable that the first slogan has had the better observance. Its observance even stood the test of the S. A. T. C. days at which time it was infringed upon more than at any other. The Loyal Aggies Use the Walks slogan originated in the days when the first sidewalk on the campus was an old stone walk along Lovers Lane. This walk was used by the entire student body, as going any other way necessitated crossing what was then a corn field. Even at this time it was the aim of the faculty to have the students use the sidewalk instead of making unsightly paths across the campus, hence the slogan. The year 1906 saw the construction of concrete walks on the campus, the first being in front of Anderson hall. The tradition that the freshmen shall wear specially constructed caps during their first year in college, perhaps one of the most sturdily upheld of college traditions, was begun by the class of 1916 who of their own accord purchased and wore the caps. The class of 1917 re- fused to follow the example of the class of ' 16, but the class of ' 18 revived the custom and in the spring of 1915 freshmen caps were again seen on the campus. The caps were sold to the fresh- men by the sophomore class until 1921 when the sale of the caps was turned over to the ath- letic association. In the year 1919 the freshman class was unusually strong. When the upper- classmen tried to make them wear the caps they met with great resistance. Among the means of force used to compel the freshmen to wear the customary headgear were duckings in a large water tank. After a number of freshmen had been ducked they organized and ducked a number of the upper classmen, and also a young professor whom they took to be a sophomore. This organization was called the Kan ' t Soak Me club. Since at this time there was a mania for painting class signs on the campus and buildings and other conspicuous places, K. S. M. was given considerable publicity. The letters still remain on the arch above the entrance to Ahearn field. : i = = i oiy Zy j jy i T= z y 1 :2.: KislorUal Thomas E. Will, 1897-1899 The custom that each class leave some sort of memorial, is one that has been generally observed at K. S. A. C. Sometime during the nineties one of the graduating classes decided that a tree planted on the campus would be a beautiful and lasting memorial, so a tree was planted. The graduating classes following liked the plan, and a tree was planted each year up to and including 1905. The tree planted by the class of 1904 was uprooted and burned by the juniors. The mystery of the location of the tree of the class of 1905 has been kept inviolate until recently when it was disclosed by Dean Harry Umberger of the extension division and Miss Gertrude Nicholson, who is connected with the department of horticulture. The tree, a pin oak, stands 25 yards south of the main walk and six feet west of the cinder path which inter- sects with it. The tree was secured from the horticultural department by .1. B. Thompson, Harvey Adams, Helen Bottomly, Mamie Cunningham, Gertrude Nicholson, Harry Umberger, and Lena Finley. One of the causes of the cessation of the tree planting custom was the advent of the year book, but many classes have left some memorial. Some of these are, the stone pillars at the south entrance of the campus by the class of 1911; and those at the entrance of the athletic field, class of 1916; the lights in front of the auditorium and the gymnasium, 1912 and 1913: the drinking fountain in front of the home economics building, 1908; and the flag pole which was donated by the class of 1920. The College Colors The report of the committee on college colors which was made in 1896 was officially approved by the faculty in 1921. This official approval has served to disillusion the large pro- F OyC- Z J Z J 2= Z j Kislorical ! Ernest R. Nichols, 1899-1909 portion of students and alumni, who have believed that the college had two colors, purple and white. One color, the royal purple, is all that the college has. The white was the idea of some decorating committee. Officially, however, the college did not even have the purple until the faculty ' s action in 1921. The body that selected the colors, Miss Ina E. Holroyd of the college believes, was composed of two representatives from each class, but only four are known today. They are Frank Uhl, ' 96, now hving near Las Cruces, New Mexico; Winifred Houghton Buck, ' 97, Topeka; Ina E. Holroyd, ' 97, K. S. A. C; and Minnie Copeland, ' 98, New York City. One color was chosen because it was believed that, as each of the classes had two colors, two would be superfluous. Thus the idea of brown and gold, sunflower colors, was discarded. Both because of the beauty of royal purple, and because it could not be found in use in any other school, it was finally selected as the official college color. Shepherd ' s Crook and Wooden Key The memory of each senior who has graduated since ' 98 probably holds a place for the shepherd ' s crook and the excitement which its presentation to the junior class always causes. The class of 1898 made a large shepherd ' s crook on which were tied the colors of the class. Upon graduation they presented the crook to the class of ' 99. When this class graduated the crook was offered to the class of 1900, but this class scorned to receive it, whereupon the class of ' 99 tied a piece of black crepe where the colors of the 1900 class should have been. A year later the crook was presented to the class of 1901 by a committee selected from the class of ' 99. Thereafter the crook was handed down by each graduating class to the class graduating the succeeding year until 1907. In the spring of this year the crook was stolen from the senior girl i o:y j[j j Tyi j z £ Henry J. Waters 1909-1918 ■who was keeping it, by the sophomores, and was held by them until they graduated in 1909 when it was presented to the next class. Although the presentation of the crook has resulted in considerable excitement it has been handed down at the junior-senior since that date. In 1918 some sophomores again succeeded in stealing the crook from George Gibbons, and its hiding place was a mystery until the spring of 1920 when it was brought back at junior-senior prom and presented to the class of ' 21. In 1921 the ambitious sophomores once more laid plans to make themselves famous by capturing the crook, but while they watched for it to be handed out thru some door or window of the gym, the coveted symbol slid quietly along a wire above their heads to the home economies building and the juniors successfully guarded it until presented to the class of ' 23,, at the prom on April 28. The freshman key is a large wooden key made by the class of 1915 and given to the freshman class at the freshman-.«ophomore dance. The key was stolen in 1917 and did not reappear until 1920. The sophomore class of 1921 made a duplicate key which was presented to the freshmen of that year. The original key was presented by the sophomores of 1920 to the freshmen of 1920 and it is now held by that class. Probably the best established annual event which is held at K. S. A. C. is the oratorical contest which has been held every year since 1901. Contestants are chosen from the literary societies, now eight in number. Other annual affairs which have been held for a number of years are the May Fete under the auspices of the Y. W. C. A.; Aggie Pop Night, first held in 1916; and Roughneck Day, first held in 1917. Probably the most interesting feature of the annual May Fete is the crowning of the May Queen, who is usually elected by popular vote sometime before the day of the fete. At Aggie -? o j tltj i i je: John Daniel Walters Professor of Architecture, Emeretus 1876— I! Pop Night seven stunts are presented by organizations whose stunts have been voted on as most promising by a committee who judge the stunts in preparation some weeks before the date of Pop Night. A silver loving cup which was given by the Y. W. C. A. advisory board is the reward of the organization with the best stunt. To keep the cup as a permanent possession, an organization must take first place at Aggie Pop Night three times. Roughneck day which is celebrated on the Ides of March is a day of intense freedom, when classes are cut at pleasure and great informality of costume is allowable. The first Homecoming day was held October 23, 1915, the game with K.U. being the occa- sion for the celebration. Coach John Bender was head coach at that time and Guy Lowman was head of the athletic department. The junior-senior which was first held in 1910 originally took the form of a banquet, but in 1915 the banquet was discarded as a feature of the entertainment and dancing now occupies a large portion of the evening. The popularity contest which is conducted annually under the auspices of the Royal Purple ■was first held in 1915. In the first contest, the most popular girl, Ruth Hill, and the most popular man, Walter F. Smith, were elected. Since then no most popular man has been chosen. The senior pin design which is now used was adopted by the class of 1910. The present centralized system of registration was put into use in 1913. Before the advent of this system the students had enrolled at the offices of their respective deans, and considerable confusion had resulted. .z o: p .i i jyi F i: E, Top Row— Clarencp Paul; F.

Roll call wa.s taken in chapel on Monday mornings and each student was required to answer the roll by telling where he or she had attended church the day before. A public plowing match was a feature of the comencement exercises in 1880. The first ivy is believed to have been planted on the campus in 1879 by Prof. H. E. Van Deman, then professor of horticulture. The first roads of the campus were gravelled in 188.J. The first trees in Lovers ' Lane were planted before the land was a part of the campus. In 1871 when the city of Manhattan bought a quarter section of land to re-locate the college, it purchased in that tract the beautiful homestead of Prof. Elbridge Gale who had preached trees so long that he was known as the orchard authority of central Kans;is. The large maple trees that sentinel Lovers ' Lane and the north college creek, and the cypresses and spruces directly north, were planted by the tree-loving professor before the college bought the land. The lane got its name about 1879. At that time it was actually a lane, three of four rods wide, fenced on both sides, and ran across the farm east and west. The old stone walk, since replaced by cinder, was the only access to the college grounds. I O C JTy J JJ J I J r ! ' :2. ' 2j Kislorical Top Row—Harvey Roots, ' 11, R. T.; Bunt Speer, ' 11, R.

Davidson, yojS-i n ' ' tVAiiiELL The Kansas State Agricultural college is a land grant college, which under the law main- tains a course in the mechanical arts, practical agriculture and military science. Under the provision for maintaining a course in military science the War Department has established three (3) units of the Reserve Officers ' Training Corps — namely: Infantry, Coast Artillery, and Veterinary. In the last war it was found that trained leaders, who knew something of the science of war were not available, and much of the delay was caused because of the necessity for training these leaders after war was declared. With England and France holding the enemy at bay this was possible; but in the war of the future with an enemy knocking at our gates, a serious situation would arise without leaders ready for battle. Realizing this, Congress created the Reserve Officers ' Training Corps to be placed in col leges, thereby making it possible for college graduates to receive military training, which would fit them to be officers in time of war. At present this college gives training to about 1,000 students each year. This training is an asset to the nation ' s scheme of national defense, as it is democratic. It is also beneficial to the individual student in many ways. r o c jo I First RoivSgt. M. Coffee, Sgt. Connolly, Capt. D. Norris, Capt. C. N. Jackson, 1st Lieut. J. V. Cole, Sgt. Wilson, Master Sgt.

In the matter of examinations the old l rinter is particularly wise. He that knows nothing of it, may by chance be a prophet, while the wisest that is, may happen to miss, he says. Moral: don ' t cram; take a chance. 15ut professors as well as students can draw comfort from him, for he also says, The learned fool writes his nonsense in better anjiuage than the unlearned; but still ' tis nonsense; and Great talkers are little doers; and What signifies knowing the names, if you know not the nature of things? Though he is gi-eat in knowledge of these matters, old Ben rises to a state of tran- scendent genius in giving a few final advices about taking tests. Better slip with the foot than with the tongue; and The first le- gree of folly is to conceit one ' s self wise; the second to profess it; the third to despise counsel; and finally, Blessed is he that expects nothing for he shall never be disappointed. In the matter of high finance Poor Richard knows whereof he speaks. Fo;- instance, he says: He that drinks fast pays slow, probably referring to coca-colas; and Learning, whether speculative or practical, is in popular or mixed governments, the natural source of wealth and honor. Another side of the financial question will be of in- terest to Manhattan merchants. He ' s gone and forgot but to say farewell— to his creditors. But then Manhattan merchants ought to remember that There ' s none de- ceived but he that trusts. In matters of morals the old printer has some very definite opinions. Be ten perate in wine, in eating, girls, and sloth, or the gout will sieze you and plague you both; and again he discourses wisely in the same vein, Wom.en wine, Game deceit. Make the wealth small and the wants great. The truth of Keep flax from fire, youth from gaming, is especially realized when one has put too mv.ch confidence in two pairs, tens high. i o:y ' i:y J= Tyi T z je:, iil When the trousers of the old suit have gotten thin, and new suits are shouting at one from every store window let him memorize this and repeat it over and over: Fond pride of dress is sure an empty curse: E ' re fancy you con- sult, consult your purse. And lastly let all Vets remember that He that lies down with dogs shall rise up with fleas. As to affairs of the heart, old Ben gives much sound advice. To parents he says, Marry your son when you will, but your daughter when you can. Girls will find their own porch-swing opinions reinforced by Though modesty is a virtue, bashfulness is a vice; and perhaps they are not so sure that Men and melons are hard to know. But surely they will concede the truth of Keep your eyes wide open before marriage, half shut afterwards; One good husband is worth two good wives; for the scarcer things are the more they ' re valued; and lastly, Let the maid servant be faithful, strong, and homely. But it is to men that Franklin off ' ers most of this tender wisdom. He that goes far to marry will either deceive or be deceived, which means do your trading at home; Would you persuade speak of interest, not reason, or talk in terms of mahogany suites and forget that dad has always footed the bills; Happy ' s the wooing that ' s not long a-doing, which brought up-to-date means to make it short and snappy; You can bear your own faults, and why not a fault in your wife, or don ' t be mean, let her smoke too; A man without a wife is but half a man, and generally no man at all in her opinion after a year of married life. But with all of these remember that He that takes a wife, takes care; and Why does the blind man ' s wife paint herself? and If Jack ' s in love, he ' s no judge of Jill ' s beauty; and that Three things are men most likely to be cheated in, a house, a wig, and a wife. A fitting summary of marriage from the mas- culine view point is this: Epitaph on scolding wife by her husba nd, ' Here my poor Bridget ' s corpse doth lie, she is at rest — and so am I. ' Finally, is it possible old Benjamin was thinking of unmarried members of the ancient and honorable teaching profession when he said: Old maids lead apes there, where the old bachelors are turned to apes?

We take this opportunity to thank those who have assisted so kindly in gathering material and planning the Annual. We especially want to thank Miss Louise Everhardy who ar- ranged snap shot pages and assisted in choosing the color scheme of the book. Others who attributed much to the success of this publication, in a business as well as editorial manner, are: Prof. N. A. Crawford, Prof. H. W. Davis, Prof. J. W. Searson, Dean J. T. Willard, Prof. Albert Dickens, Miss Ada Rice, A.sso. Prof. E. T. Keith, and Asso. Prof. C. E. Rogers. The plan of the book is conservative. We have tried to get something of every happening of interest during the year. We started early and continued late. After going to press, we have pulled a page, and on next to the last page you will find the story of the Stadium Drive. We have done our best to keep this volume free from error?. We have not succeeded, but trust that we have reduced them to a minimum. Some of the copy that came to us was illegible, much of it was late, and in a few cases we were ignored and had to gather what we could. We have labored long and faithfully, and hope our errors will be e.xcused and our effort accepted. i c c i: II As THE U.S. Veterans ' Buriiau dopes MAIN STREET. 1930 1 II ' ' ' II??:!

Through it have come many of the engineering ideas that have made this an electrical America. The story of electrical development begins in the Research Laboratories. Here the ruling spirit is one of know- ledge — truth— ratlier than immediate practical results. In this manner are established nev theories — tools for fu- ture use — which sooner or later find ready application. The great industries that cluster around Niagara Falls, the electrically driven battle ships, the trolley cars and electrified railways that carry millons, the household conveniences that have relieved women of drudgery, the labor- saving electricol tools of factories, all owe their existence, partly at least, to the co-ordinated efforts of the thousands who daily stream through this gateway.

During that time the students and faculty of the college assured a Memorial Stadium on Ahcarn field. In a ((uick, enthusiastic, and decisive campaign the students raised $76,000, and the farully raised $25,000, of the $350,000 which the completed Memorial will cost. All but $10,000 of the student contributions was contributed at the Student Memorial Assembly called by Charles C. McPherson, president of the S. S. G. A. Council and chairman of the Student Mtmorial committee. Speeches by Prof. H. H. King, chairman of the General Memorial Stadium committee, Mike Ahearn, physical director, Coach Charles W. Bachman, and W. A. Biby, of Topeka, father of Ernestine Biby, ' 20, were followed by the appeal from McPherson for funds. You know the situation, McPherson said, It is up to us to decide whether we will have a Memorial Stadium or not. I am going to ask all w ho will contribute to the stadium to rise. It looked as if the entire audience arose. Ushers distributed pledges which were signed and turned in immediately. The total contributions made at that assembly were $66,000- By 9:00 the ne.xt morning this was increased to $75,000. A holiday was declared by McPherson and approved by President W. M. Jardine. A parade over most of Manhattan practically marked the close of the campaign so far as the students were concerned. Seventy-nine college organizations were the backbone of the Memorial Stadium campaign. A checking of the subscripions on April 27th showed that fifty:two organizations pledged 100 ' , of their members in the drive. These organizations are: Acacia, A. I. E. E., Alpha Beta , Alpha Delta Pi, Alpha Psi, Alpha Tau Omega, Alpha Zeta, Architect ' s club, Athenians, Men ' s Athletic fraternity, Beta Theta Pi, Block and Bridle, Chi Omega, Dairy Club, Delta Delta Delta, Delta Tau Delta, Delta Zeta, De Molay club, Edgerton club, Fairchild club.

A. A., Women ' s Pan Hellenic, Zeta Kappa Psi. Three hundred fifty members of student teams organized by divisions put over the cam paign among the students following the special assembly. Working under McPherson as di- rector were the following majors in charge of teams in their division: Division of Agriculture Tim Murphy Division of Engineering R. C. Spratt Division of General Science Ruth Peck, Paul McConnell Division of Home Economics Marian Brookover Division of Veterinary Science Tim Foley School of Agriculture Paul Briggs H. H.
