ROYAL PUR PLE WILLIAM MARION JARDINE President of the College K. S. A. C. is indeed fortunate in having as its president a man whose sound judgment and idealism has made him a prominent figure in national affairs and an authority in matters concerning the vital industry of the national agriculture. President Jardine has the distinction of being Chairman of the Kansas Commission on the Relation of Electricity to Agri- culture, which is one of the first of its kind to be organized. He is also a member of the Executive Board of the National Food Research Council, organized under the Carnegie Founda- tion. Under Doctor Jardine ' s administration the institution has expanded rapidly and is now one of the leading schools of its kind in the United States. ROYAL PURPLE Laboratory Class in Farm Crops A Fort Hays Round-up Co fege Dairy Cows on Sweet C over ROW- PURPLE The Division of Agriculture Typical Cows of the Four Leading Dairy Breeds An important mission of the Division of Agriculture is to train young men to apply the principles and facts of science to the enterprises of agriculture and country life; to the various branches of stock raising, dairying, crop production, fruit and vegetable growing, landscape garden- ing, poultry keeping, marketing, and other agricultural activities: and to the improvement of rural commu- nities and the solution of numerous agricultural problems. The Division is admirably equipped to fulfill this mission. It has more than 50 well-trained, ex- perienced teachers; 5 well equipped farms (1,300 acres) adjacent to the college campus; commodious build- ings containing class rooms, labora- tories, and reading rooms: a modern electrically-operated flour mill an up-to-date creamery and cheese and A Class in Farm Organization Page 28 ROYAL PURPLE The Division of Agriculture ice cream factories: and numerous representatives of 20 breeds of live- stock. The Agricultural Experiment Station, with a staff of 80 scien- tifically trained and experienced men, helps to keep the instructional work abreast of the latest agricultural science. The agricultural graduates of K. S. A. C. are engaged in more than 100 interesting and profitable agri- cultural occupations, on the farm and in many scientific fields, in nearly every state in the Union and in several foreign countries. The work of the agricultural cur- riculum is well balanced, practical, in- teresting, and effective. It includes training in chemistry, botany, geol- ogy, bacteriology, zoology, and other basis sciences, and in history, liter- ature, journalism, business law, and economics, as well as in the agricul- tural applications of the sciences. Prize-winning Yearling Shorthorns Page 11 A Clans Judging Shorthorn Coivs RO AL PURPLE Division of Veterinary Medicine Twelve universities and colleges in the United States offer courses in Veterinary Medicine leading to the degree, Doctor of Veterinary Medicine. From the standpoint of enrollment, the Kansas school ranks fourth, though it is not situated in a densely populated region. There are enrolled for the 1923-24 college year students from Arkansas, California, Indiana, Iowa, Kan- sas, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Wisconsin, Philippine Islands, and China. The Division of Veterinary Medicine is housed in a three story stone building, and in addition, at the beginning of the 1923-24 college year, occupied a new $100,000 veterinary hospital. Fifteen acceptable units of high school work or its equivalent are required for admission to the freshman class. The curriculum requires four years for its completion. Lobby lo Veterinary Hospital Page 30 OTRO AL PURPLE Division of Veterinary Medicine I m Clinic Room The old school of non-graduate practitioners is everywhere disappearing, and the places taken by the modern graduate veterinarians. So rapidly is this process taking place that at the present time only one graduate is available for every four veterinarians retiring. Furthermore, there are enrolled only a few more than 500 students in all the veterinary colleges in the United States so that there can be no more than 125 graduates a year for each of the next four years. Also, statistics indicate that in 1910 there was one veterinarian for every 17,000 head of livestock, while in 1920 there was one veterinarian for every 24,000 head of livestock. Young men genuinely interested in livestock and in a professional career will find in Veterinary Medicine unusual opportunities. Veterinary Apparatus Page 31 R0 AL PURPLE Division of Home Economics Mcchiae for testing tensile strength of fabrics Problem in Interior Decoration The Applied Art Department em- phasizes the fact that The study of design furnishes a means of exercising and thus developing good taste in connection with the things which make up environment of everyday life and of awakening appreciation in nature and in art. In the design and interior decoration courses a knowledge of color, line and form is applied to those problems incident to the well furnished home. The work of the department of Clothing and Textiles is planned to develop in the minds of students clear ideas of the relative importance of suitable clothing in the life of the individual and of the family. Qual- ity and beauty of fabric is studied along with purity of composition. The textile laboratory is well equipped with machines for testing the tensile strength of fabrics, yarns, and fibres and with a conditioning oven to prepare the fabrics for the various tests. Page Division of Home Economics 1 Foods II Laboratory The department of Food Economics and Nutrition is designed to supply a high type of training adapted to the needs of the foods worker of today. A study of food requires the application of a knowledge of several kinds of science, and the student who completes her work is equipped to perform her home duties to the best advantage or to be economically independent if she so desires. In the foods II laboratory students work with food problems of an experimental nature. The Household Economics department emphasizes the successful admin- istration of the home. Whether it be for the family or for the larger in- stitutional group, it depends upon the wise expenditure of time, money, and effort, the maintenance of healthful and comfortable home conditions, and an appreciation of the importance of the family and the home and their relation to the rest of society. In the household management laboratory students work out methods of reducing fatigue in the kitchen, test the efficiency of labor- saving devices, and the proper placing of equipment. Household Management Laboratory Page 33 R0 AL PURPLE Division of General Science The Division of General Science includes most of the oldest original de- partments of the college in which the fundamental and general subjects are taught upon which the special technical and vocational instruction is built. In it is also given instruction bearing directly upon a number of vocations such as teaching, journalism and various lines of scientific service or investigation. Activities in charge of departments of this division are extensively illustrated in this volume under athletic, military, musical, oratorical, dramatic and forensic organizations. The work of some of the departments can scarcely be presented in pi ctures. That of the science department is often of such character as to require con- siderable explanation for its understanding. The opportunity for work and study in the various sciences is exceptionally good. Not only are hundreds of students constantly under instruction, but original research in many lines is in progress continuously. May Fete Page 34 ROY L PURPLE Division of General Science In the department of entomology not only is important work going on in the repressing of noxious insects, but an especially interesting phase of work has been developed in recent years, that of apiculture. The possibilities of the state in this industry have scarcely been touched, and the facilities for instruc- tion in the principles and practice of beekeeping are excellent. In connection with all of the sciences extensive laboratories are maintained, their capacity being sufficient to accommodate several hundred students simultaneously. The equipment and maintenance of such scientific laboratories is accomplished by an educational institution only at an expense which is prohibitive to small colleges. This division is thus the center of education in the college, and the nucleus about which the technical, distinctively vocational departments cluster. More- over it has under its oversight the administration of several curricula the char- acteristic work of which is given by departments of the division. Field Day Page 35 ROY L PURPLE The Department of Student Health Treatment Room Dispensary The slogan of this department is HEALTH FIRST. For that reason our chief business is to keep students well. We aim to do this by inocu- lations, vaccinations, isolation, and by enforcing quarantine regulations and disseminating informa- tion on personal hygiene and public sanitation. We also make physical examinations of all students entering school and offer suggestions for the cor- rection of defects. In addition we take care of the sick students. This part of the work has grown rapidly during the past few years. At first we had only a nurse with a one room office and no means of caring for the sick. Now we have a staff of three physicians, one a woman, and four regular ____ _______ nurses, with a five-room office and dispensary in Anderson Hall, and a sixteen-room well equipped hospital with a contagious annex on the campus. The following is a report of last year ' s work at the dispensary. Hospital Building First Semester 8,818 Second Semester 9,069 Summer School . 1,378 Total ...19.265 This number means that we have cared for an average of more than 94 cases each school day, not including the cases at the hospital. Since the opening of the hospital last year for general cases we have handled more than 409 patients. Many of these cases have been of a serious nature, such as pneumonia, scarlet fever, and appendicitis. X-Ray Room Dispensary Page 36 RO AL PURPLE The Department of Student Health Within the last year a modern X-Ray ma- chine has been added to the office equipment. Our policy is to keep both the office and the hospital supplied with the latest and best instruments for our work. Contagion Annex Students are urged to keep in touch with this department concerning their general physical wel- fare and to consult with us regarding any question of personal hygiene which may be causing them trouble.

Four-year curricula are offered leading to a degree in agricultural engineering, architecture, chemical engineering, civil engineering, electrical engineering, flour mill engineer- ing, landscape architecture, and mechanical engineering. In addition to the four-year curricula, special instruction in a number of vocations is offered for those who desire special training in these vocations and who find it impossible to take advantage of the longer courses. ROY L PURPLE Division of Engineering Machine Shop One and two-year trade courses in automobile mechanics, carpentry, black- smithing, foundry practice, machine shop practice and tractor operation have recently been added. Short special courses of eight and twelve weeks ' duration are given for automobile mechanics, tractor operators, carpenters, machinists, blacksmiths, electricians and foundrymen. The Engineering Experiment Station of the college, organized for the purpose of conducting tests, surveys and research of engineering and manu- facturing value to the various industries of the state, has proven itself of ma- terial benefit to the citizens of Kansas. In addition to the various research problems solved by the Experiment Station, it has been made the official test- ing laboratory for the Kansas Highway Commission, and all materials used or contemplated for use in hard surface roads built in Kansas under the super- vision of this commission are tested by the Station. Similarly the state has looked to the Engineering Experiment Station to test all lubricating oils pur- chased for use in the various state institutions.

South America ' s a long way off, and no telling when we ' ll get back to talk over old times with you and Doris and Pat and Bernice and Skete .... Class of ' 24 is a pretty good class, I ' d say. Yeah, some class. It seems only yesterday I came up here from Cedar Vale to enroll. Stood in the rain with Jim and Guy for three hours. Even got some kick out of that, when I was a freshman. I ' m willing to bet my hand lettered sheepskin we ' d give fifty dollars this time next spring to be here, singing ' Alma Mater ' with the rest of the gang Funny how a fellow gets attached to h is school, and thinks it ' s the only one in existence that amounts to anything. And his classmates are always the most prominent, too. Ever notice that? Look how we put over Campus day that is, Alice did. She wouldn ' t have her name in the paper, but she was responsible for the affair. Worked hard, too you know Alice. You ' ll have to hand it to her. And remember how Tex got away with the Ag fair, and Doc with the prom. And how about that cribbing investigation of Posey ' s? Oh, we ' re a smart class, all right. But somehow, I don ' t care so much about those things now. Being president down at the house, secretary of your ' lit ' society, and treasurer of something else, are good enough while you ' re in college give you something to work for, and all that. But the things I ' ll remember longest are different you know the first prom, where I met I know. The sociology prof who rescued me from the Slough of Despond last fall, and the time Prexy straightened out a little matter that didn ' t seem so little right then. Say, Prexy ' s a Aw, don ' t get sentimental. . . . See how pretty old Anderson looks tonight, that soft purplish color against the sunset, and the deep shadows on the east. . . . Guess we won ' t need to keep any postcard views of K. S. A. C. in the front parlor, Johnny, as long as we have pictures like this in our memory. ' Till the sun grows cold, and the stars are old ' Gee, when I reach the poetry stage it ' s time to leave. Page 42 R0 AL PURPLE Senior Class Officers First row RlDDELL, HEYWOOD, RAFFINGTON, CHARLES.

ROYAL PURPLE i ' -2ls- r .iJi:5i ' % J5i ' fll. -i( oWj RO AL PURPLE 1925 Class History By CORINNE SMITH In the fall of 1921, the good ship, Perseverance, set out upon the Sea of Knowledge, manned by a valiant crew and safely piloted by Captain Charles. For awhile the sea was rough, there were many difficulties and some returned to shore, while others were washed overboard by the waves, never to be found. But not all was hard- ship for mixers were given and much gaiety was to be found upon deck. In the second year of their voyage many were missing after the storm of finals, but others not disheartened by these things continued their voyage under the leadership of Captain Staley. The travelers had become more accustomed to sea life and only a few were lost by the piratic raids of spring weather, marvelous moons and too much deck laboratory. Their third year was sobered by the thought of only one more year ahead of them, yet with it all they did not lag behind. For were not two on board selected as most popular on all the voyage? Many of the crew distinguished themselves in various sports and those who received their letters were Bunker, Staley and Perham. We will leave them now on the third year of their cruise and see what 1925 will have in store for them. Junior Class Officers Top row COLBURN, HALE, THOMPSON, FREEMAN.

In the first place, he may turn his eyes backward and survey the accomplishments of the last two years. Having surveyed them to his own satisfaction he may hold them up to the public gaze by commemorating them upon paper. This is the procedure which has been followed by the majority of class historians in the past and on this basis the class of 1926 claims its share of the honors. We might go into detail concerning our four representatives on the varsity foot- ball and three on the varisity basketball roster of letter men. When track and baseball letters are awarded later this spring the ability of the members of the class of 1926 in these lines also will be at- tested. We might go further and enumerate our representatives in the other college and departmental activities such as debate, dramatics, music and the journalistic field. However, we feel that at this stage of our career as a class organization we should not stress our past achievements too much as has often happened in the case of classes before us. We feel that should we rest on our laurels now there might be a corresponding let-down in the coming two years. This brings up the second source of material, that of looking into the future and portraying our possibilities, from the half-way point where we now stand, until graduation day in 1926. We would not prophesy great records for individuals or groups of in- dividuals who are within our scope. Rather we would set as a goal, every person working in his own field to the best of his ability, to the end that we may show a great many beneficial results, which, collectively taken, will keep the standards of our college ever rising in the eyes of the people.

When this throng was assembled, it was discovered to be the Fresh- man Class. At their first meeting they elected their officers and, ' tis well they did then for they have not elected since. The class meetings have always been well attended and the business speedily transacted. Soon after Christmas, the Freshmen decided to have a dance. They advertised well that they had a good orchestra from Kansas City engaged but, lo when the eventful night came, the orchestra proved to be one composed of local talent. The dance proved to be a success both in pep and finances. The Freshmen made a generous contribution towards the stadium, which was a big help to the College and placed them in good standing. On the 25th of April the Class, together with the Sophomores gave the Fresh-Soph Hop, which proved a great success. They have never been lacking when it comes to pep and ability to work. The Freshman boys faithfully won the purple cup when they had to. This class promises to be the best that has ever entered K. S. A. C.

GROVE Bigeloiv D. O. WILSON Manhattan R0 AL PURPLE RO AL PURPLE Four years ago when Mike Ahearn was given the steering wheel of Aggie athletics the opinion was expressed by many that the Wildcats were headed for the top in the Missouri Valley. Since then sport lovers have watched Aggie teams fight their way to victories in valley contests. Bachman, a second to none football coach has won fame for himself and the Aggies of Kansas by developing a winning team on the gridiron. More than being the best football mentor in the Missouri Valley, Bachman is a finished expert in teaching track and field sports. Corsaut has come to the Aggies more recently and in one brief season, despite injuries and a serious lack of veteran players, brought the Wildcat basketball team from the undisputed cellar championship to an even 500 per cent position in the Missouri Valley team standing. With a baseball record not quite as good as that of the football, basket- ball and track squads, during the last three years, the Aggie baseball men have no discredit coming to them. They fought all the way and are still going with prospects for a brighter season ahead under the direction of Coach Corsaut. Under Manager Knoth who introduced intramural athletics here in 1920 this form of athletics has increased in popularity. Knoth has won greatest honor in developing strong swimming, boxing, and wrestling teams.

JC ROVAL PURPLE j@Sj Football K Men f Varsity Squad ROYAJL PURPLE CAPTAIN RALPH MERRILL NICHOLS ROY L PURPLE 1923 Football KNOTH After a season marked by tie games, upset dope, and muddy fields the Aggies stood fifth in the Missouri Val- ley percentage column, having won two games, tied two and lost two. There is no argument as to the superiority of the Cornhuskers over other Valley teams. In the Thanks- giving game the Huskers proved their claim to the Valley Championship by defeating the Aggies, who had previ- ously outplayed Kansas University, also undefeated, in a tie game. ROOT Due to the upset of Valley dope the rating of the other teams was hard to decide and after all perhaps the standing of the teams at the end of the season best tells the story. The wonderful passing system developed last year was used to advantage and again was one of the outstand- ing features of the conference season ' s play. The veteran passing combination of the previous year, Stark, Swartz, and Axline in the backfield and Munn and Webber at the ends of the line, puzzled their opponents and made the Aggie aerial attack spectacular and thrilling to a high degree. The famous Notre Dame shift was slightly modi- fied to a lock-step shift which worked with beautiful pre- cision and prevented the backfield from being in motion. A variety of end runs and off-tackle plays formed the ground attack and coupled with the aerial offense in many cases proved the undoing of Valley opponents. A feeling of good fellowship and unselfish co- operation on the part of each individual was in a large measure responsible for the success of the 1923 machine. HOLTZ Page 131 ROY L PURPLE Washburn o Aggies 25 Opening the season with four regulars. Captain Nichols, Swartz, Stark and Clements out of the game the Aggies romped through, over and around their opponents from the Capitol City. Playing on a wet field in a drizzling rain and a cold wind de- tracted from the excitement of the first game and served to prepare the players and spectators for sub- sequent games played under the same conditions. CAPTAIN NICHOLS An able aggressive leader, a student of the game Butcher was the bulwark of the Aggie offense and scored all of the points. Other new players, Mildrexter and O. H. Wilson at halfback positions showed promise of developing into good material and exhibited some nice line plunging and broken field running. The Ichabods under a new coaching system advanced the ball well at times but never did they endanger the Aggie goal. CAPTAIN-ELECT MUNN A deadly tackle and a strong offensive player RCTrAL PURPLE Creighton o Aggies 6 Handing defeat to the Creighton team, rated as one of the best in the Middle West, the Aggies proved to their followers that they had the punch and fight. It was the first game of the season for Swartz, Stark and Clements who had been kept out with injuries and the insertion of the latter two into the line-up in the second period started a victorious march to the Creighton goal. The passing system AXLINE The speed merchant who knew the game from A to Z CLEMENTS A good line plunger and wonderful on interference of both teams was hampered by a muddy and slippery field. Both teams completed a reasonable number of their passes, notwithstanding the con- dition of the field. In the last period Creighton opened up with a passing offensive which carried them far into Aggie territory where the Wildcats tightened and held them for downs. RQY L PURPLE Ames 7 Aggies 7 The Wildcats opened their Valley schedule with the Cyclones on the lowans ' gridiron. The game came very near being detrimental to the Aggies for not until the last quarter with 1 7 seconds to play did Bachman ' s men score their only touchdown. Clements produced the extra point which tied the score. Ames scored first, late in the second quarter by means of spectacular end runs on the part of J. o COACH BACHMAN Whose popularity increases from year to year Behm, assisted by line plunging by N. Behm and J. Anderson. Immediately after the touchdown the Wildcats started a furious offensive and when the whistle blew to end the half had the ball on the Ames ' two-yard line. Three times within the last half the Aggies were within the Ames ten yard line but not until the last minute of the game did they cross the Iowa goal. I KEEPER A sophomore who made good at right tackle ROY L PURPLE Kansas U. o Aggies o Outplaying the Jayhawk in every department of the game and gaining a net offensive of 320 yards to his opponent ' s 75 yards the Wildcat was unable to secure anything better than a tie out of the Kansas-Aggie fray. The work of the Aggies ' backfield and line was superb. Time after time Stark and Axline reeled off long gains around the Kansas ends and through the much touted K. U. forward wall which gave way before the perfectly timed smashes of the Aggie linemen. HARTER 168 pounds of fight. Al ways talking it up HUTTON The ideal type. Speed, fight, aggressiveness The Wildcats served notice of the dangerous air game almost at the start when a 23 -yard pass, Stark to Swartz, put the ball on the Kansas 4-yard line. However, a 5 -yard penalty for offside and an incomplete pass over the goal line gave K. U. the ball. The Aggies again threatened in the second quarter and in the last period had the ball on the Kansas one-yard line, where the Jayhawk recovered on a fumble. ROY L PURPLE Missouri U. 4 Aggies 2 Playing on a sticky field of Kansas gumbo Bachman ' s men first tasted defeat at the hands of Mizzou Tiger in a slow, uninteresting game in which the only counters were three safeties. It was the Homecoming game for the Aggies and 6,000 fans watched two sockless teams battle for a victory which meant much to the winner. Both teams were handicapped on account of the four inches of mud which covered the entire field. BUTCHER Butch hits like a ton of bricks Neither team had a decided advantage on the field, but two Aggie fumbles behind the goal which were recovered but not in time to avoid being downed before crossing the line, netted the Missouri team two safeties. The Aggie score came late in the last quarter when a Missouri halfback donated two points to avoid losing the ball and the securing of a possible Aggie touchdown. STEINER Hahn ' s understudy who made good in 1923 RQY L PURPLE Grinnell 7 Aggies 34 The Aggies won their first Valley victory when they hit a belated stride and romped over the Pio- neers to the tune of five touchdowns. The varied attack displayed by the Wildcats was brilliant. The triple threat work of Swartz and Stark kept the Grinnell defense puzzled at all times while the work of the Aggie backfield was spectacular throughout. STARK ' The best in the west All-valley choice SCHINDLER A power on offense, a stone wall on defense Axline stood out as the leading ground gainer for the Aggies hitting the Grinnell line for good gain at almost every attempt. He was ably assisted by Stark who plunged the line well, ran the ends and was on the receiving end of a number of good passes. Grinnell scored their only touchdown in the third quarter as the result of a long forward pass, Sweet to Taylor, who also kicked goal. R0 AL PURPLE Freshmen o Varsity o On November 17 while Coach Bachman and his first string men were in Lincoln, Nebraska, en- joying a rest and scouting the Nebraska-Syracuse game, the freshmen and varsity fought a scoreless game on Ahearn Field. It was the first home game of the season on a dry field. The closest thing to a thrill occurred when the freshmen held the varsity a foot from the goal line. The frosh made a good showing and the results of PERHAM A strong man who was a utility worker the game indicated that Bachman would find some good material among the freshmen to fill the shoes of the varsity men who graduate this year. The kicking of Cochrane was a feature of the game. Hoffman played an outstanding game for the freshmen, his return of punts and wide end runs gaining many yards. Feathers, freshman fullback, also showed up well. He is a line plunger and good on defense. BALLARD A good man for both tackle positions ROYAL PURPLE Oklahoma 2o Aggies 21 In a forward passing classic, the nerves of more than 8,000 spectators taut during the entire game, the Aggies barely nosed out Coach Bennie Owen ' s warriors from Norman. It was the first ideal football day on the home field. The forward passes of both teams predom- inated. It was in this game that Bachman ' s men earned the title of being the best forward passing team in the Valley, when they completed 1 8 flips out of 27 attempts. WEBBER An outstanding and spectacular end WILSON Axline ' s understudy who will be heard from in 1924 Just when the Aggie fans were beginning to feel comfortable with a 14-point lead, Bristow, Oklahoma fullback, intercepted a pass and ran 90 yards for a touchdown. Strengthened by this un- expected turn of events the Sooners by a series of passes and end runs scored another touchdown. The failure of Bowles to kick goal at the crucial moment cost them the game. R0 AL PURPLE Nebraska 34 -Aggies 12 Playing a losing game but fighting every minute until the final whistle had blown, the Aggie Wildcats went down in glorious defeat before the furious, smashing attack of the ever driving Ne- braska Cornhuskers. It was a question of who had the ball, both teams being able to score when in possession of the ball. The Aggies were supreme in the aerial route while the Huskers had full sway in the ground attack. SWARTZ For three years he skill- fully directed the Aggie machine Twice the Wildcats went down the field with dazzling brilliancy. Snappy passes, fast end runs, and smashing line bucks enabled them to penetrate the Nebraska line for two touchdowns. Despite the fact that it was a Nebraska victory too much credit cannot be given the valiant Aggie line which withstood the powerful drives of the hard-hitting Nebraskans. MlLDREXTER John demonstrated ji ' ability to Aggie rooters Page 140 ROYAL PURPLE Freshman Football ASST. COACH CORSAUT ASST. COACH HOLTZ Coach Bachman ' s problem next fall will be to develop men who can take the place of the eight veterans who played their last football game for the Aggies at Nebraska Thanksgiving day. With a wealth of material from the freshman squad his worries over that particular puzzle should approach the zero point. With an entirely new backfield it may result that Bachman ' s aerial offense will suffer somewhat for it is almost too much to expect that a backfield that will take the place of the Stark, Clements, Axline, Swartz combination can be molded in one year. However, the material in the freshman squad indicates that the 1924 backfield will be heavier and faster than that of the 1923 team and that a ground attack may be the main offensive. The line will also be heavier and although it will lack the experience of the line that worked in the 1923 team, there is every reason to expect that the 1924 squad will be one of the best in Aggie history.

At the start of the season the team took a pair of beatings from Oklahoma and Nebraska, who finished second and third in the conference, but obtained sweet revenge on the Cornhusker before a home crowd, 29 to 26, the first home victory in a couple of seasons. }i 146 P 1 ROY L PURPLE 1924 Basketball The Wildcats gradually improved as the season went on. Grinnell, the Champion Jayhawks, and Oklahoma took them to a double cleaning. The squad split with Washington and Nebraska, and de- feated Drake, Ames, and Missouri twice, earning a percentage of .500 and a tie for fourth place in Valley standings. Only six letters were awarded, the honors go- ging to Captain Howard Webber, Dodge City; Gil Wann, Hays, forward: Kirby Bunker, Kansas City, TEBOW The curly-headed With an accutate eye for baskets forward; Eric Tebow, Scandia, center; Art Doolen, Manhattan, guard, and Fritz Koch, Manhattan, guard. The last four will be back in 1925 with a year of experience together behind them. The short pass, five-man defense style of play used by Corsaut proved popular with Aggie fans, and home crowds were always the largest. Atten- dance seats were at a premium in the last two home games against Ames and Drake, when the Aggies finished up their season, the Bulldog game being the fourth consecutive victory in as many games.

C. is superseded only by his success as a football coach. It was Bachman who made Riley into a hurdler that led the valley in 1923. Bachman it was who found and developed Erwin to the point where he led the Missouri Valley century flash men. Him- self a Notre Dame star in the weights, Bachman made Gartner who has already broken the K. S. A. C. discus record.

Captain Kuykendall was the class of the valley distance runners and had things HOPE All-around track man. His best was the pole vault. BALZER Broke into the limelight as teammate to Kuyk all his own way at both indoor and outdoor Mis- souri Valley meets. Erwin earned his title as the Aggie flash when he won the 100-yard dash at the Kansas and Drake relays in 9 4-5 seconds. He was also an easy win- ner of the 100 and 220-yard dashes at Ames. In the century dash two timers caught him at 9 3-5 seconds but a difference in the other watches gave him the official time of 9 4-5. RQ AL PURPLE 1923 Track Ivan Riley, perhaps, was the most outstanding athlete in the Missouri Valley in 1923. He it was who won the 70-yard low hurdles at the Illinois relays. At the Kansas relay games he was high point man of the meet with a first in the low timbers and a second in the highs. At the Valley meet he dupli- i K RILEY A hurdler of national reputation. cated the latter feat. Last summer he set a new American record for the 440-yard low hurdles. Since then he has equalled the world ' s record for the 60-yard high hurdles and set a new record for the 40-yard high hurdles. Many students of track sports pick Riley for an Olympic champion. HENRE A relay team runner and a cross country man J . 1 ' Jh- Two-mile Relay Page 156 R0 AL PURPLE 1923 Track Hollis Hope was a good running mate for Riley in the high sticks. Hope could also usually be count- ed on for a point in the pole vault. At Ames, in running the hurdle race he met with a severe acci- de nt but continued in the pole vault and placed second at twelve feet. Hope ' s best achievement was his vault of twelve feet three at the Valley outdoor meet. 1 WILLEY An unknown who de- veloped into a runner of ability VON REISEN A member of the four- mile relay team and a good half-miler. A. E. Balzer, F. E. Willey, E. von Reisen, and K. Knouse broke their way into the ranks of Aggie K men by way of the middle and long distance races. Henre of the last year ' s squad was also in the distances and the Aggies were almost always sure of points in these events. CONSTABLE He turned the Aggie-M. U. dual meet into an Aggie victory GARTNER Cat promises to be one of the best M. V. discus throwers 1923 Track In the jumps and field events the Wildcats were not as strong. Constable tied for first in the high jump at Missouri, but an injury to his ankle the year previous kept him from doing his best work. John Gartner won his niche in the Aggie Hall of Fame by establishing a new Aggie discus record of 127 feet. He also placed fourth in the discus throw at the Kansas Relays. KNAUSE Jumped into the lime- light in the Aggie-M. U. meet The Aggie four-mile quartet composed of Henre, Willey, Balzar, and Kuykendall placed sec- ond at the Kansas Relays and the same team with von Reisen substituting for Henre won third place at the Drake Relays. At the latter place the time made by this team was the fastest ever made by an Aggie four-mile quartet.

The 1923 baseball team did not show up any too well as athletes of the great American pastime. The squad got off to a slow start due to the fact that early spring practice was held up on account of bad weather and a poor prac- tice field. Pitcher Conroy was the outstanding player of the season for the Aggies. He lost only one valley game and that to Kansas University in the final series. The Curtiss clan won one game from Kansas, one from Oklahoma, and two from Missouri. They lost one to Missouri, three to Kansas, three to Oklahoma, and two to Nebraska. The one game won from Kansas University at Lawrence was the best game of the season for the Aggies. Ed Cunningham hurled this game and it proved to be a pitchers ' battle all the way. The game was to have been a seven-inning battle but went for extra innings before the Wildcats won out by a score of 3 to 2. The hitting of Lyle Ernst and Glen Aikin set the pace for their team mates while the fielding of Earth was faultless. Page 161 RCTYAL PURPLE ROW. PURPLE Swimming Team The Aggie swimmers made a very credible showing in the 1924 season. Only two letter men returned from the 1923 team, Colburn and Mackay. The new men on the team were L. C. Miller, P. Carter, Paul Stuenkel, B. C. Harter, C. W. Schemm, and Schaal. Colburn, who has been the big point winner for the past three years will be lost through graduation next year, as will Mackay and Schaal.

C. are continuing to increase in popularity. This year finds larger entry lists in all the branches of athletics. The race for the season awards is considerable closer this year than was the case last year when the Aggieville Athletic Club walked off with first honors. At the present time at least six or- ganizations are within striking distance of the championship and the winner will probably not be known until the results of the out- door track meet are in. Following are the results of events to date. The first varsity boxing team in the history of the school was formed this year and participated in only one regular dual meet, that with Ames. The Aggie box- ers made a very good showing al- though the meet was lost 5 to 2. Four of the matches went into extra round before a decision was reached. The team was composed of the following men: Shepherd, Rose, Hoelzel, Carmean. Schopflin Pearson, Bachelor. Rose and Hoel- zel won their matches at Ames. Walgren who was not eligible for the regular team because of the residence clause in the valley rules. and Hoelzel. will compete in the Olypmic tryouts at K. C. A. C. on May 7th and 8th.

This is her first year with the Aggies. Under her direction the department has advanced very ma- terially and athletics have been greatly stimulated. Miss Morris coached hockey. She has introduced archery and clog dancing into the curricula. Miss Myra Wade, who has been a member of the department for the last two years, is a graduate of Oberlin College. She has charge of corrective gym- nasium classes and interpretive dancing. May Fete was given under her direc- tion. Miss Wade is tennis and baseball coach. In baseball she has instituted the use of indoor rules for the combination of outdoor-indoor play formerly used. Miss Geneva Watson, another new member of the department, is from the University of Chicago. Miss Watson is the best basketball coach that Kansas Aggie girls have ever had. She has added a new feature to the elective classes character dancing. Miss Watson is track and tennis coach, and she hath a way with her that makes girls get out and work. The new system, introduced the second semester, of requiring two hours of elective and one hour of regular floor work has proved very popular. Many new courses archery, track, character dancing, and clogging are now offered in addition to the old standbys hockey, basketball, baseball, swimming, tennis, folk and interpretive dancing. The department offers courses that ap- peal to all types of girls. Physical education is rapidly becoming a more vital and interesting part of the life of the women students of K. S. A. C.

On every Tuesday, members of the corps had charge of the pool and as- sist in teaching the methods to applicants. Those eligible were then passed by the examiners, Laureda Thompson and Corinne Smith. Captain Law of the Southwest Division of the American Red Cross came to Manhattan early in the spring. He gave instruction to the corps in the new methods adopted by the national organization. He also gave an exhibition of these methods in the men ' s pool. OFFICERS CORINNE SMITH... President LEONORA DOLL. .__.,_- ...V ' ice-President LAUREDA THOMPSON...

There were enough girls out for hockey in each of the two lower classes to make two teams, so that they were assigned separate nights for practice.

S. A. C., had its beginning January 8, 1896. in The Student ' s Herald, a weekly four-page paper which had from five to seven editors and one reporter. In April, 1913, the name was changed to The Kansas Aggie, and April 25. 1914, the first issue of the Kansas State Collegian, a semi-weekly, was published. The increasingly large number of students enrolling in journalism, made necessary a new plan of operation which was inaugurated at the beginning of the second semester. The editorial responsibility was divided between an editor-in-chief and a managing editor, and the reportorial organization was completely revised. The inch requirement was abolished and now the fifteen students selected as reporters are excused from a certain amount of class work.

C. this year than ever before, discussing not only the official Pi Kappa Delta question, namely, the League of Nations, but also the World Court, the Occupation of the Ruhr, and the Transportation Act of 1920. We have had in all, eleven decision debates, of which we won eight. The men ' s varsity team participated in seven debates, of which they won six, the women ' s varsity team won two out of three, while the Frosh men succeeded in bringing home the vic- tory in their one decision debate. In addition they participated in three no-decision debates, and the varsity women participated in three no-decision debates. These were with a variety of schools, in- cluding Iowa State College, Kansas State Teachers ' College, West- minster College, Warrensburg Normal, Kansas University, Wash- burn College. Oklahoma University, Michigan Agricultural Col- lege, Baker University, Ottawa University, Park College, Bethany College, Southwestern University, Colorado Agricultural College, and Montana State College. Negotiations are under way for con- tracts with even a larger number of schools next year, including the larger colleges and universities. Professor H. B. Summers, who came to K. S. A. C. in Septem- ber, 1923, from Park College, where he had coached many winning teams, has been our coach this year. Professor H. A. Shinn of the Department of Public Speaking has helped with some of the teams. Randall Hill, senior in General Science, coached a girls ' team which by contract was to be student coached. We are sorry to say we cannot report the decision since it was a no-decision debate, but we know that there would have been no bad news. At any rate. Professor Summers has very definite plans for ex- tending debate at K. S. A. C., including the possibility of a Kansas Debating League, and of a trip to the western coast for the men. The co-eds are trying to convince him that they, too, are deserving of more trips. Page 319 Page 320 RGY L PURPLE Inter-Societv Council Top row HILL. DOLL. FREY. JUSTICE, B. J.

A. has been under the leadership of Dr. A. A. Holtz, who as general secretary has extended the activities of the association far beyond our campus limits. The Y. M. C.

The purpose of the school was to offer vocational training to boys and girls of less than college rank. Three courses were offered. Agriculture. Mechanic Arts, and Home Economics. During the first school year there were 658 students enrolled. The enrollment has steadily decreased, and during the past school year there were less than 100 students enrolled. During the eleven years of its existence it has enrolled students from practically every state in the Union, and from seven foreign countries. Ten classes have been graduated, totalling 125 graduates. Forty-eight per cent of the graduates have entered college. More than 300 Veterans ' Bureau students have been trained in the Vocational School, and more than 2,200 students have registered in the school during its existence. Professor H. L. Kent, now President of New Mexico A. 8 M. College was the first principal, and Professor A. P. Davidson succeeded him. ROY L PURPLE Basketball Team Top row DICKENS. HUGHES. LUTZ, ERIKSON.

BRANDJESKY Treasurer The Lincoln Literary Society was organized October 27, 1913. The college societies limited their members to college students, thereby eliminating the vocational students. The vocational students wishing to gain the education derived from a literary society, organized the Lincoln and Philomathian literary societies. The number of members of the two societies diminished until it was necessary to merge them. The merging was accomplished by a slight revision of the constitution. The diminishing of the membership at the end of the semester of 1923 and the cessation of the vocational school necessitated the complete dissolution of the society. MEMBERS CARL HARTMAN s. A.

The fraternity strives to interest college girls in the profession and to maintain the ideals of good fellowship, work and ambition.

C., but there came a time when stage-craft became of such interest to the student-body that a special dramatic organization seemed necessary. The K. S. A. C. Dramatic Club was formed. From this club in December, 1915, the Purple Masque was organized, under the supervision of Professor James G. Emerson, then head of the Public Speak- ing Department. The Masque continue to work in conjunction with the department, a member of whose faculty is designated as coach of the Purple Masque productions. Page 381 ROY L PURPLE Purple Masque The Purple Masque Players celebrated their ninth anniversary this year with their masterful production Three Wise Fools. The play was taken on a tour to Concordia, Salina, Chapman, Junction City, and Hutchinson. The cast was composed of Harold Sappen- field, Fred Voiland, John Wray Young, Gladys Sandford, Wini- fred West, James Lansing, Melvine Thompson, Jack Kennedy, and Milton Eisenhower. The cast was accompanied on tour by Mrs. W. West, the chaperone, Professor Ray E. Holcombe, the Director, and Clifford C. Jolley, the Business Manager. This year the Players formed an apprentice group called the 56 Group because all tryouts are held in G 56. From this group the casts for the one-act plays are chosen. The first group of one- act plays included The Brink of Silence, directed by Blanche For- rester, and played by Dave Hervey, Newton Cross, and William Car- penter. The second play, also directed by Mrs. Blanche Forrester, was The Trysting Place, played by Lillian Kammeyer, John Wray Young, Forrest Whan, Velma Lockridge, Kathryn King, Gene Conk- lin, and Magnum Fox. The third play, Sham, was directed by Miss Quennie Hart, and played by John Fuller, Mary Kimble, and Magnum Fox. The last play on the program, Three Pills in a Bottle, was directed by Miss Dorothy Sanders and played by Charlotte Swan- son, Ruth Falconer, Dorothy Whan, Bernice O ' Daniels, Gene Stevens, Alex Van Pelt, Ira Call, and Cecil Archer. RCttAL PURPLE Purple Masque HAROLD SAPPENFIELD The second program of one-act plays included The Golden Doom, The Wonder Hat, and Wurzel Flummery. The Players presented The Admirable Crichton, a very am- bitious undertaking for the Festival Week Play. Special scenery de- picting the very beautiful island scene, was secured from an out-of- town Scenic Firm. This year the Players inaugurated the custom, pursued by some of the larger schools, of holding a very distinctive and exclusive func- tion called The Players Ball. Gala attire for the women, formal dress for the men, weird and colorful lights, dreamy and unusual music, and En cores Dramatiques was the vogue of the evening. The Players Ball will become an annual event, and take the place of the annual Banquet held at the end of each school year. As a further evidence of the interest in Dramatic work at the college, the Players report that the course in Dramatic Production in the Public Speaking Department now has a capacity enrollment. A second course in Dramatic Production II was formed the second se- mester, which also served to increase the enrollment of the Depart- ment.

Sig Alf The Sig Alls Clean House The Stucco fraternity entertained this afternoon for the active members of the organization with a tea dance at the chapter house, the music being furnished by the Arch Tickler orchestra from Cedar Ridge. The rooms were tastefully and beautifully decorated with violets and trailing hop vines, while strings of raisins were gracefully festooned from the ceiling. Sister Diefendorf, famed through- out seven states as a brewer of orange pekoe, poured, ably as- sisted by Mesdames Dowd, Ware- ham, and Claybaugh. Tiny gold flasks bearing the fraternity crest. and cakes of yeast neatly wrapped in tinfoil were given as favors. The entire program was broadcast from the powerful KFKB station. Since the dance, several telegrams have been received from each of the 94 active chapters, and hundreds of com- munications from alumni, congratulating Beta chapter on the success of the party. One man in Portland reported that the sipping of the tea was as audible as if it had been in the next room. Phi Delt Here ' s to old Burr, the chieftain of our band. He never yet has held a losing hand. In athletics the Fie Delts reign supreme. Thanks to T ' s able coaching, they were able to win the basketball tournament, and to place second in baseball. African golf and poker, how- ever, are the chief pastimes of this group of Has-Beens, Would-Bes. and Might-Have-Beens. Many are the parties held behind closed doors, which break up in the wee small hours of the morning. Af- ter the last one Bill paid a three months ' board bill, purchased a new suit, and took a date to the show. Johnie, Clark and Allen usually share in the Max might win sometimes were his generator not always beyond control.

Roberts when interviewed for publication let fall the following pearls of wisdom: We fully realize the responsibility which rests upon us to watch and report the dongs of the Alpha Delts. We are also aware of the duty which devolves upon us to polish and per- fect the tender youths entrusted to our keeping. Even in infancy we begin to teach them that vulgarity and crudity are not to be tolerated in the best circles. In furtherance of this noble and unselfish policy round table discussions with practical demonstrations are held each Wednesday evening at the chapter house. Hound Page 386 Sig Ma New Cards please. muttered the butler, as he threw open the door of the spacious New home, and upon producing the proper credentials and giving the password, one is escorted within, where he is per- mitted to view the greatest collec- tion of Reginalds, tea hounds, and social stars ever known in Aggie history. Three barber shops are kept running night and day in the chapter house basement, and a spe- cial corps of manicurists and beauty experts are in constant demand. A diligent and painstaking search into the annals of the chapter, the present membership, and the mys- teries of the order has failed to re- veal a single outstanding man whom the chapter has produced, with the exception of Starkie and Spud, who are both mentioned in Who ' s Who in Ladyfussers. For this reason the chapter must needs seek publicity far and wide, and woe betide the careless editor who neglects to give them less than 1 9 top heads in each issue of his paper. The fratres are said to possess the most pins of any organization on the hill, and all but two of them are out. I It Can ' t Be Woler. ' Klix Almighty Cupid, great god of love and of lovers, there are many things which we have not. yea a goodly number which we earnestly desire, namely ( 1 ) dates, (2) Greek letters, (3) pledges, and (4) social standing. Of these, dear friendly little god, the first is the most im- portant, but we pray thee, if it be possible, give to us the second also. Darken our eyes like thine, that we may overlook the faults of our sisters. Link our name with that of some fraternity, we care not whom, and for god ' s sake let us go national before the year is out. All this we ask in Polly ' s name. Amen. Lambda Chi Alpha A Clean Slate for the Future The babies of the Greek letter world have finished cutting their eye teeth and are now turning their attention to learning a few dance steps. The organization has had a surprisingly rapid growth. Baird ' s Manuel, 1920 edition has the fol- lowing to say: A society having a chapter at the Massachusetts Agricultural College. It is reported to have chapters at Boston University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, but letters addressed to its chapters at these places were returned undelivered. Nothing further is known. The fraternity now numbers 63 chapters. Gamma Xi boasts such local lights as Kimball. Healea, Harris. Scholz, McWilliams and Ballard. Pag, 387 Installation Ba Kappa Delt The Kappa Delts gave a party and bade many. And they sent Max at evening to say to those that were bidden, come: for all things are now ready. And they all with one consent began to make excuse. And the first one said, My mother is ill unto death, and 1 must needs go to Kansas City for the week end. I pray thee have me excused. An d another said, I have bought a Ford, and must go to prove it; I pray thee have me excused. And another said, I have a date with a Pie Fie. I pray thee have me excused. And another, I will Sunday Morn.n, a: :he Kappa Del: House hous( , mother ;f j mus[ but a pledge I will not take. I pray thee have me excused. So Max returned and told the girls these things. And the girls were very angry and said unto Max: Go out quickly to all of thy friends and bring in hither the Kappa Sigs, the A. T. O. ' s. the Sig Alphs, and the Sig Eps, that our pledges may have dates. And Max said, I have done as thou commanded and there is yet room. And the girls said. Go out into the highways and hedges and compel them to come in. And behold, when Max came again into the highways and hedges, the Greeks had got wind of her coming and there was not one to be found.

So ardent is their devotion to what is, for them, a new pursuit, that they secured two orchestras for their spring party. One was stationed at each end of the hall, and they played continuously with no intermission between dances. This plan had an added attraction in that it saved them the painful necessity of making conversation for ten minutes at a time. No wonder they love to dance. Triangulars Peach Blossoms and Lemons Having tired of the moronic gib- bering of the student body, and dis- liking the rare altitude of the hill. the Triangulars left their old abode and ventured into the wiles of the wicked city. The wicked- ness has not as yet palled. But imagine their dismay to find, after a year ' s residence in their new home Three Sho.s lor a N,ckc, ' { ' d Ser , tO Gr f than they were before. In fact they are now much closer to decadent Rome than they are to the land of the Hellenists. But even yet the brethren do not despair, and perhaps they may ride to fame on the broad shoulders of Vernon Oswald Clements. Page 388 ROY L PURPLE Alpha Xi Delta Parking space, both indoors and out, is the one thing which is lacking at the Alpha Xi Delta house, for strange as it may seem, they rate not only dates, but dates with cars. This in spite of the fact that dates are required to leave promptly at 1 1 :30 except on dance nights, and even then they must go at 2. The house rules provide that at least one girl shall put on a pin each week, and a regular schedule is posted in the bathroom at the beginning of the semester showing when each girl is to be ready with chocolates. Thus each member can count on one thrill a week when she is permitted to kiss her newest brother-in-law. s.sift Knight? Kap Alfalfa See the nice big au-to-mo-bile. children?

But a Bunch of Live Wires got together one night, and brought all their little Sun-day School Banks with them. How the Pen-nies rattled on the Old Red Car-pet! Karl had Fif-teen Pen-nies, and Paul had Sev-en-teen. and Russell had a Can-ad-ian Quart-er. and Jack had Two Bits! (You see, children. Jack was getting ready to Set Up House-keeping.) The Other Fellows wrote home to their Rich Papas, and Borrowed a Little from their Friends, and by and by they had enough to Rent a Nice Big House on Anderson Boulevard. Wasn ' t that Splen-did? And then they worked Hard, and Saved, and Scrimped, till they had enough to buy a Second Hand Packard Pud-die Jump-er. and that meant Soc-ial Stand-ing! Isn ' t their story Thrilling, children dear?

LEONARD Killed in an engagement March 7, 1924 Page 389 RO AL PURPLE Phi Sigma Kappa Step right up ladies and gentle- men and gaze upon the stronghold of true democracy. Bargie, the pride of this group of intellectuals, is now president of everything but woman ' s Panhell. and he refused to be a candidate for that office. Bates, his understudy, and candi- date for next year ' s offices, is said to be the best looking man on the hill. His successful elimination of Roughneck Day from the Aggie calendar may be taken as a promise of the heights he hopes some day to attain. Kappa Konsider the Kappas. How different they are. Quite superior, don ' t you think? Seem to come from A better class of people; Have lots of tone, And style. And everything The most superior person Could wish for. In fact. There is no other bunch Quite in their class What??? You don ' t mean to sa ?? Can ' t see any difference ?? Well. well, well! Even the Kappa pledges Are taught that difference The very first thing. Betah For countless years the Betas have prospered under the steadying influence of Zim and Neal. With their passing, however, the organi- zation has sunk to the depths. No longer does the coed pledge ' s heart flutter at the mere thought of a phone call from a Beta, no longer is the order the self appointed keeper of the young and innocent Pie Fies, no longer do they aspire to be the social guardians of Pan- hell. Simplicity is the keynote of the new regime. Social leadership being out of the question, an effort is being made The Can Gang to appear democratic. In further- ance of this policy, and in order to give the boys a fair chance when they return to the harvest fields in the summer, there has been no matron at the Beta house since rush week. ROY L PURPLE Numbers Where ' s the Fire? LADY WITH A PIN Shadows play upon the silvery platinum arrow as the encrusted diamonds catch, hold, reflect, and make a lovely composition in light and dark. The arrow is long and slender, an interesting arrangement of straight lines. On one end is a point, on the other the characters of Pi Beta Phi. The pin, painted on a dark background, is the cen- ter of interest. The background has the lustrous texture of lovely material and upon closer observa- tion it is found to be the gown of a lady, a lovely lady, the First Lady of the Land, Mrs. Calvin Coolidge. The subject is indeed worthy of all the skill of even so great an artist as Howard Chandler Christy, for Mrs. Coolidge is the first president s wife who has been a member of a Greek letter organization. How fitting then that Pi Beta Phi of which she is a member should present her with this lovely portrait. The local chapter is indeed fortunate to have had a part in so meritorious an enterprise. Gamma Phi Delta See all the pretty girls, children? They are pretty be- cause they are good. They belong to the Y. W. C. A. and the Young People ' s League, and have never missed prayer meeting in their lives. They know which fork to use and how to eat soup, but they never, never dance or play cards or say d n. If you are very good, perhaps when you grow up you, too, may be overlooked by all the Greeks, and then you may be a Gam-ma Phi Del-ta Pledge. Delta Taw Look Us Over Wake up . dear, said little Harry, interrupting Blackie ' s snores by a gentle shake. The Delt Sheiks Lemme alone, said Blackie crossly. But.

Oh goodie, good Ah, thash nothin, said Chig, who was busy washing behind his ears, I ' ve got two bronze ones already, and next Sunday I ' ll get a silver one. I haven ' t missed for two years. Well, come on, said Sid. appearing in the door with his little Bible under his arm. It ' s time to go. So the dear little boys trouped out. their little faces shining, their knickers neatly pressed, and their little Windsor ties flowing in the breeze. But just as they were nearing their destination, the circus, which had appeared in the town the day before, passed by. and the boys, never giving it a second glance, went up the steps and into the church. Page 391 t L ROYAL PURPLE Spreading the Bull Is this the Acasiah house? inquired the reporter timidly, entering the yard of the dingy dugout disguised as a radio set.

How after meeting and conquering three traffic policemen, he was coasting blithely down Seventeenth street when he encountered the Ford which was to prove his undoing. But why repeat the gruesome details which arc even yet so well remembered? Nels has recovered, and after a summer of work was able to pay for the car, but the rushees were never pledged. Delta Zeta Canned Dates The Dizzies may not be much on grades, but when it comes to Society, just watch them step. For evidence of this fact see the society column, found on page five of the college scandal sheet, which begins each time with the following item: Miss Ella Wilson. Paxico, and Miss Renna Rosenthal. Topeka, spent the week end at the Delta Zeta house. Had they been fortunate enough to gut another pledge who could make her grades, their future would have been much more secure, though they will probably never recover from the depths to which the loss of Renna plunged them. Next year, however, a last dying struggle is to be made to raise the status of the organization. A fast working team is being put into the field in an endeavor to snag some of the Delt heroes, and the slogan which has been chosen for the coming fray is Beauty and popularity, and to hell with the overhead. A School of D.Z. fish Waiting to Be Caught Page 392 ROYAL PURPLE Chi Omega The Chi O House was looking awfully vacant at [he beginning of the year until the surviving members sent out a bushel basketful of bids and finally roped in a crowd of dear innocent little girls like Janice ind Ruth. When the sisters saw the ruddy glow of health on the face of Calcimine Russell they became alarmed at their own pallor and set about to remedy it by exercise. Doris and Bern ice and Jessie and Margaret and Lucile and Donna all went together and bought a set of Victrola records on Health in Three Counts, but found it too thin- Eight Feet of Chi Omegas rung. Then they tried walking past the Sig Ma New house four times each evening, t but as this didn ' t bring the blush of dawn to their cheeks, they were in despair. Then George stepped in and solved the problem. Dear, faithful, trustworthy, house papa, George! He pur- chased a croquet set and installed it across the street in the park. Thoughtful George! Now each evening the Ki Omigaz spend their time hitting the wooden croquet balls, and chasing them into the far corners of the park. Thus it is that the roses of Piccardy have come back to their faces, and blonde little Mildred is no longer queen of the reds. Omega Taw Epsilon THE FABLE OF THE MUCILAGE BOTTLE AND THE MUSTARD POT It UMS Hell Week at the O. T. E. house many moons ago. Great was the wrath against those in high places among the Neophytes. And it came to pass that the theft of the mustard pot was re- ported by the Cook, and the Mucilage bottle disappeared from its resting place, and the records show that these two were united in matrimony. When the race for positions at the dinner table began. Rex and Jack were late, being thus caused to sit down without looking. And a feeling of extreme warmth assailed portions of their anatomy, and Rex, it is said, excused himself, and was enabled to escape, because the glue had not yet hardened. But Hathaway, being president, was forced to stick it out. And the glue waxed cold, and the guests departed, leaving the president still sticking. Then like a crab departed he from the room backwards, resem- bling the tortoise in that he carried his chair with him. And great was the weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth among the O. T. E. Neophytes that night. The Long Long Trail You see here the home of the chief of the tribes.

A tale is told of the Knights of Kappa Sig, that in the days of their Glory, they gave a Feast, and in- vited many to their Banquet Hall, where they made merry on meats and rich viands and nectared sweets. There was in truth a Feast of Reason and a Flow of Something Stronger than Soul. And Sir Gat, who loved forsooth his Brother Knights, entreated them to Lay Off the Cup that Cheers, and Sir Peter the Piper cautioned them to Leave It Alone. Ivan the Turrible pleaded with Sir Aching to Re- frain, but he was repulsed rudely. and so there was much revelry in the Hall of Kappa Sig. And the King heard about the revelry, and he was Wroth he was more than Wroth, he was Peeved, and ordered his Henchmen to take away the Coat of Arms of the Knights of Kappa Sig, that they be no longer known as Men of Renown, but as of the Common Herd. Thus it is that henceforth the Fallen Knights of Kappa Sig must explain in sorrow to their Ladies of the Court why they can have no more Royal Sprees, and it grieves them sore.

Later, however, an estrangement arose between the two groups, and the insignia of A. T. O. was changed from the fiery cross to the cross formee. The proudest boast of Delta Theta chapter is. we are the finest chapter of Alpha Tau Omega.
