D. FARRELL since it was founded in 1863 the Kansas State Agricultural College has been helping to establish an educational ideal. The ideal still is comparatively new. It is based upon the conviction that the common things are the great things and that labor and culture are not incompatible. It is an ideal that can be reached through good scholarship and intelligent labor. Those who believe in it esteem people for what they are and not for what they possess or for their method of gaining a livelihood, so long as it is an honest method. The College exists for the benefit of the people who help to do the world ' s work. Its aim is to help them to learn to work effectively and to live happily. The graduates of the College number nearly seven thousand. Those who have attended the College but have not been graduated, number several thousand more. These people are demon- strating both the soundness of the ideal to which the College is committed and the effective- ness of the work the College is doing in promoting that ideal. In virtually every state in the Union and in many foreign countries these graduates and other former students are applying their college training as engineers, home-makers, veterinarians, bankers, architects, merchants, and in many other capacities. The College is proud of their records as men and women, as citizens, and as useful and productive workers. Page 15 The Board of Regents W. Y. MORGAN Hutchinson C. B. MERRIAM Topeka EARLE W.

Since Commencement in June, 1927, thirty- eight hundred and seventy-seven students have passed through this portal on their way to a larger life and opportunity. First, there came the summer-session students, numbering nine hundred fifty-four graduate stu- dents, teachers from Kansas schoolrooms and students from her own classrooms ready to plunge again into college work that would bring them the rewards they seek. Then, when the bitter-sweet berries were scarlet and the grapes of the ivy hung purple, the regular student body came. Thirty-two hundred eighty bright-faced young freshmen, care-free sophomores, serious-minded juniors, seniorsweighted down with the responsibility of meeting the last JESSIE MACDOWELL MACHIR Registrar requirements for that coveted degree, and graduated students eager for re- search all have trooped through the wide doorways of the college this year. Four hundred eighty-nine students of agriculture, twelve hundred seven pursuing various curricula in general science, nine hundred sixty-seven students of engineering, five hundred forty students of home economics, and seventy- seven students in veterinary medicine made up the thirty-two hundred eighty enrolled for the regular session. The combined enrollment of summer session and regular session was forty-two hundred thirty-four, but three hundred fifty-seven were more ambitious than the rest and attended both sessions, and even though some of them may have had dual personalities, they could only count as one, which gives a net enrollment of thirty-eight hundred seventy-seven for the year 1927-1928. This familiar doorway, hung with scarlet and purple, will swing open hospitably for the return of many of these hundreds of students next autumn, and only the Class of 1928 will miss its welcome may other portals hung with the scarlet and purple of happiness, success, and prosperity open before these young men and women who bear the banner of 1928. Page 27 J The Division of General Science UST a few years ago in the history of Kansas State Agricultural College, all students took the same course of study, with such modifications as were necessary due to difference of sex. About the dawn of the present century the movement for specialization reached the institution, and the various technical curricula began to be set off, and the basic course, from which the new curricula had branched off, came to be distinguished as the General Science course. The process of specializa- tion continued and eventually the General Science course became differentiated into several more or less closely related courses which are administered by the Division of General Science. Within this Division there are now twelve distinct curricula, one of which retains the old name of General Science. This curriculum, of all those offered at the college, most nearly resembles the Liberal Arts and Science curricula of other col- leges and universities and, with little or no modification, could be made to lead to the A. B. degree. The General Science Division is the only one of the five divisions of the college with which every student comes in touch because all the technical curricula rest upon the foundation work in English, Mathematics, History, Science, Economics, Modern Languages, etc., all of which departments are in this Division. So, in addition to the fact that the enrollment in this division is larger by several hundred than that of any other division, the teachers of the General Science Division, numbering more than one hundred and seventy, have enrolled in their classes at some time all the students of the other divisions also. This explains why the number of teachers grouped in this division is greater than that in all the other divisions combined. DEAN J. T. WILLARD Page 28 The Division of General Science A QUESTION frequently and very properly asked is What does graduation from the General Science Division lead to? The answers must be at least as varied as are the different curricula offered in the division, but in general the basic courses introduce the student to the best thought and the greatest achievements of humanity in the fields of physical, biological, and social science, and in those studies that are designated as cultural, such as music, art, and literature. One who has properly completed such a curriculum sees all civilization in true perspec- tive and is equipped to live on a higher plane and to enjoy and appreciate the finer things of life as he could not have been with- out such training. The wide elective privileges of the curricula in this division offer the students opportunities to specialize in any of the fields that appeal to their interests. Many take the necessary sub- jects that prepare them to enter the teaching profession. Those who take the work in Commerce have the equipment with which to begin business careers for themselves or to enter the employ of some of the greatest business corporations. Each year representatives of large concerns interview seniors in Commerce personnel and office positions. Many students become interested in scientific research and go on to other institutions to do graduate work, or take up research in commercial laboratories where their success attests the high character of their basic training. Others use their college training as the foundation for professional study in medicine, pharmacy, law, dentistry, etc. The curriculum in Industrial Journalism sends its quota of graduates to good newspapers and magazine positions. Music g raduates who do not care to teach begin their professional careers, and Industrial Chemists find ready employment in the manufacturing world. The educated person will find or make for himself a worthy place in the world, and it is the chief purpose of the General Science Division to educate young people by developing latent abili- ties, revealing lines of opportunity, enlarging visions and stimulating high purposes, to the end that its graduates may be prepared to live useful lives of leadership in whatever special calling they may enter. C. W. CORRELL Assistant Dean and place some of them in Page 29 The Division of Agriculture BY DEAN L. E. CALL E of the chief objectives of a college education is the development of qualities of leadership. There is ample evidence that college-trained men and women more frequently become leaders than do those who have not had the advantages of such training. Only about one man in 100 in America has had a college education, but this very small part of the population fills more than one-half of the positions of great responsibility. In no industrial enterprise is an educated leader- ship more essential for the welfare of society than in agriculture. This leadership is needed both on the farm and among business men who serve the farmer. The Agricultural College in offering training for agri- cultural leadership has, therefore, a twofold obligation to provide training for both of these groups of future citizens. To meet this twofold obligation, four-year curricula are offered by the college in agriculture, agricultural administration, and in agriculture with special training for landscape gardening. A combined curriculum of six years is also offered in animal husbandry and veterinary medicine. The four-year curriculum in agriculture is designed primarily to meet the demand for training of the student who expects to return to the farm. The American farmer today need s not only the skill which comes from the training of the mind in the sciences underlying production practices, but he needs also thorough training in the business aspects of his profession and in the inter- relationship that exists between farmers and between farmers and other groups of society. The curriculum in agriculture is designed to provide such training. The curriculum in agriculture trains not only for the farm, but the student who completes this course of study will have had the basic training necessary for many lines of specialized agri- cultural work. The demand for men thus trained is constantly increasing and many positions offer attractive opportunities for men who by nature and training are adapted to the work. The United States Department of Agriculture, the state colleges, the state departments of agriculture, high schools, private institutions of secondary and college rank, and many commercial concerns are demanding men with such training. L. E. CALL, Dean Page 30 The Division of Agriculture curriculum in agricultural administration, which was -U- first offered during the present school year, is a new course of study planned to meet the needs of students preparing for work in the industries that serve agriculture in which basic training in both agriculture and business is desirable. Among such occupations and industries are rural banking, milling, de- velopment and sale of land, the hardware and implement busi- ness, farm livestock and crop insurance, agricultural writing, and the teaching of vocational agriculture. The value of boyhood training on the farm for a business career has long been recognized. The habits of industry, self- reliance, and thrift learned so well on the farm in the boyhood days furnish an ideal foundation upon which to build a business career. In the past such a preparation was about all that was necessary. Modern business today, however, is more exacting. It is demanding more highly educated men to fill responsible administrative positions. Such positions are going to the college- trained man. The demand, however, for men with both experi- ence and a knowledge of agricultural practice is just as great as formerly, providing such experience and knowledge is combined with a thorough education and satisfactory business training. The curriculum in agricultural administration provides an opportunity to secure at one time a thorough well-grounded education and a knowledge of agriculture and business methods. The curriculum in agriculture with special reference to landscape gardening and the com- bined curriculum in animal husbandry and veterinary medicine are designed to give special training to students desiring to engage in these responsible fields. The industries of Kansas have develo ped greatly during the past score of years, and will continue to do so in the future, but farming must ever remain the most important among them. As the population of the world continues to increase so much the vast expanse of fertile, rolling prairie that is Kansas increases in productivity to supply food and raiment to the world. Kansas has been fortunate in her heritage. Her Kaw valley may be compared in richness and productivity to the Nile valley of the eastern world. Her grasslands produce some of the world ' s best cattle, and her plains the world ' s best wheat. HUGH DURHAM Assistant Dean 31 The Division of Engineering DEAN R. A. SEATOX NGINEERING plays an exceedingly prominent ' part in the modern life. Most of the conveni- ences and luxuries of our civilization are the direct result of engineering effort. The work of the engineer is chiefly to utilize for the benefit of mankind the forces, materials, and phenomena of nature. Each new discovery of the physicist and the chemist, and each new practical application of physical and chemi- cal phenomena presents new opportunities or further extension of the field of service of the engineer, so that his work is constantly broadening and expanding, and the number of men required to carry on the engineering activities of the country is constantly increasing. College education has become the normal first step to professional engineering standing, although some men still attain to the status through self- education. Forty years ago less than one-fourth of the members of the national engineering societies were college graduates. Now more than two- thirds of those entering their membership hold college degrees and more than four-fifths have had a substantial amount of college training. Engineering education at K. S. A. C. has had a remarkable growth in recent years. Nearly twice as many engineering students are enrolled at K. S. A. C. as at any other school in Kansas, and the number is exceeded in only two schools between the Mississippi River and the Pacific Coast States. The growth of engineering training at K. S. A. C. since 1920 has been greater than at any other school in the United States, so far as it has been possible to learn. The extent of this growth is shown in following table: Engineering Enrollment at Year K. S. A. C. 1919-20 556 1920-21 646 1921-22 753 1922-23 . 756 1923-24 ,- ' ' . 840 1924-25 893 1925-26 972 1926-27 .... . . . 1,019 Page 32 D Division of Engineering Engineering Division now is second in the College in -11- number of students, being exceeded only by the Division of General Science. About two-fifths of all the men in College are enrolled in this division. Notwithstanding the rapid increase in the numbers, no difficulty has been found in placing all K. S. A. C. engineering graduates in attractive positions, with favorable opportunities for further development of their abilities and for advancement in salaries and responsibilities. Engineering graduates of K. S. A. C. now occupy highly responsible positions in many of the leading industrial concerns in this and other countries. Each year many companies send their representatives to the College for the purpose of employing our Senior students for work in their companies after graduation. Four-year curricula in engineering and architecture, each leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science, are given in the Division of Engineering as follows: - PROFESSOR M. A. DURLAND Assistant Dean Agricultural Engineering Architectural Engineering Architecture Chemical Engineering Civil Engineering Electrical Engineering Flour Mill Engineering Landscape Architecture Mechanical Engineering The Engineering Experiment Station of the Kansas State Agricultural College is maintained to carry on tests and research work of engineering and manufacturing value to Kansas, and to collect, prepare and present technical information in a form available for use by the people and the industries of the state. The road materials laboratories make all tests of materials for use on the roads of the s tate, co-operating with the State Highway Engineer. Tests of lubricating oils used by all the state institutions are also made in the experiment station, co-operating with the State Business Manager. Twenty-one bulletins have been issued by the Engineering Experiment Station, and about thirty research projects are being actively prosecuted. I Ml. II i If ft Page 33 The Division of Home Economics HOME ECONOMICS at the Kansas State Agri- cultural College celebrates its fifty-fifth birth- day in this year, 1928. From a small beginning in the Bluemont Central College it has been variously housed as its work expanded and for the twenty years since 1908, its activities have been centered in Calvin Hall. An unwritten rule of the Division of Home Economics is that all that it has in either space or equipment must be used by one department or another or it shall be passed on to one who will use it. Such a rule stimulates use and from ground floor to roof of Calvin Hall it is difficult to find space enough for needs as they arise. The curricula of the Division are administered by six departments having a staff of 26 full time in- structors and 11 graduate assistants. The 500 students enrolled are majoring in Home Economics, this year ' s graduating class numbering 100. To give these students with their many interests and varying capabilities that which will serve them best and make them happiest is the constant aim of the Division. A degree is a definite goal, but it fails if it represents only hours of college credit, but with this there should be trained abilities that will be able to meet new situations and find joy and stimulation in the real problems of living. In the department of food economics and nutrition some new courses are being offered. One of these is an applied nutrition course open to those who are not enrolled in home economics, a course in which men students would find much of interest. The research problems in the vitamin content of foods and the utilization of calcium are being extended further. The department of clothing and textiles has carried on some important research on the rela- tion of bacteria to fabrics. The Purnell project on the protection afforded by fabrics in still and moving air is to be completed this year. It is important to note that this is the only college in which accredited research in clothing is in progress at present. The department of institutional economics is in its second year as a separate department and the twenty-five students majoring in this department give evidence of its growth. Many other students choose electives in this department, especially those who plan to teach in high schools to whom the course in quantity cookery is invaluable if there is a cafeteria in the high school to which the student goes, or the possibility of establishing one. DEAN MARGARET JUSTIN III f Page 34 3z Division of Home Economics VAN ZILE HALL, the women ' s dormitory, is filled to capac- ity in its second year. The comfortable living conditions and excellent food are equal or superior to any others in Man- hattan. To live in a harmoniously decorated building is an edu- cation in itself. The Ellen H. Richards Lodge houses successive groups of six girls for a period of four weeks so that some fifty girls have the excellent training offered by the practice house during the year. The department of child welfare and eugenics, newly organized this year, is the sixth department within the Division. Health, family relationships and the welfare of children are especially important for those who are to be home-makers or as a basis for advanced work leading to a position in this field. The nursery school is of increasing interest. Two groups of children are cared for: One comprised of those from eighteen months to three years, the other and older group of three to four years. More space has been added to that first used and the sunny rooms with ultra-violet light coming through the vita-glass in the windows give pleasure and health to the children. The development of graduate work in the division is of special importance since the passage of the Purnell Act approving Federal aid for research in the land grant colleges. Nearly every state has set up projects and there is a demand for trained workers. The work in Home Eco- nomics at the college in its growth through the years and in its staff and equipment is looked to to supply many such workers, even more than in the past. Ellen H. Richards was one who first saw clearly that subject-matter such as that now taught as Home Economics could be organized and taken out of the haphazard class of being trans- mitted only from one worker to another. She said that the prosperity of a nation depends on the health and morals of its citizens; and the health and morals of a people depend mainly on the food they eat and the homes they live in. Kadzie hall, the first college buliding in the United States to be used exclusively for Home Economics instruction, was built in 1897. The present Home Economics building, now known as Calvin hall, was erected in 1908, and the college Cafeteria in 1921. Ellen Richards lodge, used as a practice house for students in household economics courses, is located off the campus. Page IS SA DEAN R. R. DYKSTRA Division of Veterinary Medicine IN THE Kansas State Agricultural College th e following curricula in veterinary medicine alone or veterinary medicine in combination with other curricula are offered: I. The regular four-year curriculum in veterinary medicine, in which after the successful completion of the various courses the degree of Doctor of Veter- inary Medicine is conferred. This is the curriculum selected by most of the students interested in veter- inary medicine and entitles graduates to recognition by the state and federal bodies. II. A combination curriculum in veterinary medicine and animal husbandry. In this the student enrolls in the Division of Veterinary Medicine, and in two additional years may be eligible for the degree Doctor of Veterinary Medicine. This combination curriculum is very popular with those interested in the raising of livestock. It not only prepares the candidate for a wide knowledge of conditions as they affect livestock, but places him in position to maintain them in the best of health. III. A combination curriculum in general science and veterinary medicine in which the prospective student enrolls in general science and at the end of four years, by a certain combination of general science and veterinary medicine courses, he may be entitled to the degree Bachelor of Science. Following this, an enrollment is taken out in veterinary medicine, and the curriculum in the latter may be completed in two additional years. This combination curriculum was formulated for those wishing a broader knowledge of general scientific and cultural courses in addition to a knowledge of veterinary medicine, so that they may be more thoroughly prepared for responsible research and teaching positions. This is an unusually valuable combination and is bound to grow in popularity. Taken as a whole, the Division of Veterinary Medicine in the Kansas State Agricultural Col- lege continues to enjoy the enviable position of being one of the leading American Veterinary schools. It has received this distinction because of its physical equipment, its excellent faculty, and because it is located in the very center of a livestock producing region. The demand for its graduates continues to exceed the supply. Page 36 The Division of Veterinary Medicine NO VETERINARY school in America has physical equip- ment excelling that of K. S. A. C. Its buildings and laboratories are new and fully equipped with modern appliances necessary for successful teaching. The veterinary hospital, erected at a cost of 8100,000, is a model of its kind, and in it large numbers of animal patients are treated every year. The teaching staff is unique amongst veterinary faculties in that its members are graduates from a large number of different colleges. There is no inbreeding in the K. S. A. C. veterinary faculty. All members have had extensive teaching, research, and practical experience. Demands for veterinarians are constantly increasing. The livestock of the country is improving, and there are immense herds of purebred domesticated animals. The total value of livestock in the United States is more than eight billion dollars. Veterinarians are also employed by cities, counties and states, as well as by the federal government for inspection of human food products of animal origin, and regulation of animal diseases. Not more than 125 new veterinarians are graduated every year, which is less than the number being lost through death and retirement. It is therefore perfectly evident that with increasing numbers of livestock and decreasing numbers in the veterinary ranks, there is no lack of employ- ment for those entering this vocation. Veterinary education in the United States has advanced with rapid strides. Originally a trade, it is now a science with a foundation as broad and thorough as any of the learned profes- sions, and has attracted to its ranks many of the best of the high school graduates. Like human medicine, the teaching of veterinary medicine is carried on entirely at public expense, the various states recognizing that prosperous agriculture depends to a great extent on healthy livestock. The first degree in veterinary medicine conferred by K. S. A. C. was given in 1907. From then until the school year 1925-26 there were 268 degrees granted. The importance of veterinary me dicine to Kansas is recognized by the organization of the K. S. A. C. instruction in that subject as a separate division of the college. Unlimited opportunity for the gaining of practical knowledge in connection with the theoretical work is offered through the veterinary clinic, which draws a great number of cases from the farming country surrounding Manhattan, and from the rest of the state as well. Page 37 In the Veterinary Haspit.il DEAN EDWIN L. HOLTON The Division of Summer School SUMMER instruction at K. S. A. C. first was offered in 1904, when 17 students took advantage of the facilities thus made available. Enrollment has increased from that number of nearly a thousand, with 337 courses offered in 1928 in graduate and under- graduate work. For the past three summers, a special session has been held for the teachers of Vocational Agriculture and for superintendents and principals. This session is being offered in the 1928 Summer School during the month of July. The chief purpose of the Summer School is to provide opportunities for study on the part of those who can not make use of the regular sessions. Teach- ers and professional people are thus given the privilege of advanced study during the summer months, and students who desire to study eleven months out of the year instead of nine, are encouraged to stay for the session. The percentage of graduate students in Summer School is much greater than during the regular semesters, and conditions are very favorable for good scholastic work. Courses are offered in all departments of the college. A maximum of nine credit hours may be carried during the two months. Special lectures, conferences, special courses for teachers, for coaches, and for com- munity leaders are offered in addition to the usual social affairs; are made a part of the summer school. EQUIPMENT. The facilities for the Summer Session include the entire plant of the Kansas State Agricul- tural College, consisting of laboratories, shops, farms, libraries, and experiment stations. The material and equipment is in keeping with the wealth and dignity of the state. The College campus occupies a commanding and attractive site upon an elevation adjoining the western limits of the city of Manhattan, with street-car service into town and to the railway stations. The College campus contains 147 acres of rolling land, adorned with flowers, shrubbery and trees. It is a delightful place in which to work and is most satisfactory for recreation. On the campus is an extensive array of tennis courts, hockey grounds, baseball fields, and other spaces for athletic sports. The College owns 1,399 acres of land at Manhattan. This land is the site of the College farms and agricultural experimental work. In addition there are the laboratories of the engineering plant, and all this equipment is fully at the disposal of the Summer School students. There is no larger or better equipped plant devoted to the teaching of arts and sciences than may be found in the Kansas State Agricultural College. H Page 3ft Division of Extension THOSE who are fortunate enough to have the advantages of a higher education are obligated to the general public which has made it possible for them to secure these advantages. This is particularly true of those who attend the Agricultural college, an insti- tution supported almost wholly by the general public. That this obligation which one owes is realized by those among whom he goes to live is indicated invariably by that attitude wherein those who return from these institutions are generally expected at once to assume minor responsibilities of leadership in community activities. Leadership determines the standards of any community. Without leadership the community lacks both ideals and purpose; it does not establish up-to- date schools and churches, nor does it contribute up- to-date standards of individual citizenship. One of the most important functions of the Extension Service is not only to carry new ideas to the farm and to the home, but to assist those who should be in a position to fulfill their responsibilities in leadership. While it is generally recognized that progressive practices increase the financial returns to the individual and to the community in general, yet, this is not the end. If profit does not produce better communities in which may be produced the best characteristics of American citizenship, it fails to produce its largest return. Increases in financial returns enable communities better to build those things which promote a better life. These cannot be attained, however, without leadership which inspires higher ideals and which insures effective accomplishment of these purposes. Consequently the Kansas State Agricultural College, through the Extension Service, should expect that those individuals who have derived benefit by attendance here are those who will rea lize their obligation and will establish their leadership through which the institution may express higher ideals in individual and community life. In co-operation with these leaders the extension service is accomplishing a definite program of organization whereby these communities may study their problems and intelligently apply available facts to their solution. In Kansas last year there were more than 800 communities so organized, and which served not only the purpose of applying knowledge to the economic phases of production, but to the social needs of the community as well. DEAN HARRY UMBERGER Dean of Women THE position of Dean of Women is based on the ideal for students of the highest physical, intel- lectual, social, moral, and spiritual development. The objective of the Dean of Women is thru co- operation with the various campus and community agencies to contribute to the realization of this ideal. Her problems of living conditions, of student employ- ment, of vocational guidance, of student discipline, of social and religious life and of the extra curricular activities are but the different aspects of this objective. The problems of living conditions, of health, of social life, of employment, and of vocational guidance are her special concern. She serves on committees, secures employment for self-supporting students, recommends students for loans, supervises the living arrangements for women students. She sponsors special talks for students, Big Sister programs, house mothers ' meetings, personal and group interviews, and social events. She fosters in the students the president ' s ideals for the college and presents to the president the student viewpoint. She assists in making contacts between men and women, between the sorority women and the independents, between students earning their way through college and the others, between the students and citizens of Manhattan. The routine duties of the Dean of Women ' s office do not express the deeper significance of her work. It is a service the influence of which is recognized as an essential factor in the life and ideals of the College.

STUDENT GOVERNMENT Student Governing Association ' i G FRANK CALLAHAN, President STUDENT GOVERNMENT at Kansas State is under the control of the Student Governing Association, membership in which is contingent upon payment of the varsity activity fee. Most of the business of the Association is carried on by the stu- dent council of seven members, elected each spring to serve the following year. Among the duties of the council are apportion- ment of the varsity activity fee; control of the special fund set aside for support of activities not covered by the fee; supervision of class elections and activi- ties pep meeting organization; control of varsity dances, and handling of all student discipline with the exception of cribbing cases. In discipline cases the council sits as a court for trial and passes sentence, subject to review by the faculty council and approval by the president of the college, which has been given in every case coming before the council operating under the present con- stitution. In 1927, the seven-person council plan wasadopted, the former council having consisted of 17 members. STUDENT COUNCIL OFFICERS President FRANK CALLAHAN Secretary . . .... VESTA DUCKWALL V ice-President . . , JOE HOLSINGER Treasurer PAUL PFUETZE Page 114 87. Student Governing Association nr HE smaller council can be more easily called together than the larger -1L body, and each member is forced to take much more individual interest and responsibility than was formerly the case. Council members are nominated by petition, any S. G. A. member being eligible. Officers of the council are elected by the council, and serve as officers both of the council and the association. A business meeting of the entire governing association is held once a year, in April, at which time nomination petitions for the new council are read and any necessary business transacted. Funds set aside for special administration by the council are used at the council ' s discretion; among the activities sponsored in this manner being the Go-To-College teams; the trip of the Men ' s Glee Club to the Missouri Valley contest; college publicity and class election expenses. The Kansas State S. G. A. is a member of the Mid-West Student Confer- ence of Colleges and Universities.

They came for the purpose of boarding the various steamers in which they ex- pected to make their voyage across the ocean of College Education to that new land beyond the Wharf of Graduation. There were 560 who boarded the steamer General Science, 222 girls scrambled into the steamer Home Economics, 417 chose steamer Engineering, while steamer Veterinary Medicine contained 24, and steamer Agriculture ' s crew numbered 168. These pilgrims had come from every hill and dale of the United States. They represented all types and classes of American youth. There were numerous reasons for their coming. Some came for study (example: Wampus Cats), some for play (those making Phi Kappa Phi), some were sent, while many hardly realized what they were here for, but all make up this notable chapter in history. The personnel and number of the passengers has changed somewhat since the year 1924. Upon arriving at the harbor a few were examined and found wanting, others saw too much and became sea-sick, while still others had weak hearts and returned home to be reinforced by another heart, the two of which could beat as one. Then Tom, Dick, and Harry found it necessary to withdraw because their alarm clocks failed to go off on too many mornings. Conditions at home, ill-health, and lure for adventure captured still more of the crew. A few fell overboard because some of the Ship Mates left the lower bar off the E railing. (F).

SCHVVINDLER C. E. CREWS DICK BRADLEY PAUL PFUETZE President PASSENGERS from other harbors have joined the group and likewise a small portion of the voyageurs of harbor K. S. A. C. has gone to other ports. The total number has decreased until at the present time there are 437 of them left approach- ing the Wharf of Graduation. During the four years voyage the Class of ' 28 has given men and women to every kind of activity. They have taken a prominent part in athletics, dramatics, honorary organizations, and social and religious activities. As freshmen they saw the Kansas Aggie football team defeat the team of K. U. for the first time since 1906. In their Senior year one of their number received the Rhodes scholarship to Oxford which was the first scholar- ship of its kind to be granted to a student from K. S. A. C. As they were sailing thru the calm sea of Senior-Dumb they received an S. O. S. call from mid-ocean where an underclassman was shipwrecked by a collision with the Brown Bull. Huge waves of indignation circled out from the wreck carrying the man out of sight who had waved the red flag. Futile efforts of rescue with petitioned lifeboats were made, but he was lost. Later reports came from harbor K. U. of attempted landing, but the logbook records the storm-tossed lad a sailor at Port K. S. A. C. again on the second lap of the year ' s journey. By the end of the four years the ' 28 sailors have developed wonderfully in knowledge and power. They have often felt weary of their voyage, but now leave for future passages with mingled feelings of regret. They have been loyal to K. S. A. C. and will always be so. This is only a record of their travel over the ocean of College Education. The balance of the voyage across the Sea of Life is still held in the secrecy of the future.

S. A. C. a timid bouquet of greenery. As the fall wore away the green underwent a gradual change as did the leaves, the Freshman became bright and shining, caused by many a frequent dipping into studies. Time passed; we rolled up our sleeves and entered fearlessly into battle in the front ranks. As a historian I should mention all our achievements, but since it would cover too much space I will say that we have not only had representatives in all school activities, educational, athletic and social, but leaders in all.

Terrible we can ' t print the annual without a history of that class, one of the four best in the college. There was one turned in ; proba- bly the janitor got it. Somebody ' s going to have to write one awful quick. It ' s up to the staff, I guess. Read this at your peril. The Freshmen of 1927 hit the hill with a bang they shook out the hayseeds and wheat- straws and commenced right away to show the college what an enterprising group of youngsters could do. Scholarship, athletic, society they became topnotchers in everything. Just a whole- some, industrious bunch of boys and girls, willing to work and anxious to get ahead.

S. A. C. It was a gala day as they filed through the mazes of enrollment and were thoroughly shorn of all their superfluous and some not so superfluous cash. This was the beginning. Soon they were all absorbed in the whirl of College life, football games, parties, dances, studies; Rec Center Lab, hikes and all the pleasures, duties and activities that form the life of the hill became everyday affairs to them.

Yet from time to time such achievements as a dashing football team that could give the varsity all the competition it desired and more, and a basket ball team that for a time threatened to overshadow the performance of the regulars, a Freshman Panhellenic and a Freshman-Sophomore Hop that were real parties, brought to the more advanced members of the student body not a small flicker of genuine pride and satisfaction. What is a general idea of the group? It is now a power on the hill. Its members include orators, dramatists, debaters, scholars and as a proof of the previous returns of the beauty con- testants, three out of six were the college beauty queens. It promises everything in the way of achievement, and more than that, it gives to the world at large proof that from the class of 1931 big things can be expected.

L. MACINTOSH, Coach THE Kansas Aggies this year for the first time were represented by a meats- judging team which competed at the American Royal Live Stock Show, Kansas City, and the Inter- national Live Stock Exposition, Chicago. The Kansas City contest was won by Illinois with Kansas ranking fourth and Missouri and Iowa ranking second and third, respectively. Eight teams competed. H. H. Brown was high man on the judging of pork and third high man in the entire contest. The three teams placing above Kansas had special training in this work which was impossible for the Aggies. The Chicago contest was considerably larger than the Kansas City contest with 12 teams competing for honors. Kansas came in third in the entire contest and ranked first in the judging of pork. Iowa placed first in this contest and South Dakota, second. V. E. McAdams was high- point man of the entire contest and high man in the judging of beef. The introduction of a meats-judging contest is a new phase of judging, as it is just being realized that such judging contests are important factors in meat production.

The team displayed a fighting brand of football at all times, and the season was, on the whole, successful. After an impressive victory over the Hays Teachers, the Purple squad entered the Valley race immediately with a hard- fought game against the Missouri Tigers. Sixty minutes of mud-battling gave the Tigers a six-point victory to the disappoint- ment of a fair crowd of Aggie followers who went to Columbia. The ancient enemy, Kansas, was put to rout in a thrilling game at Lawrence. This was one of the season ' s best games, with the Wildcats going at top speed all the way. The 6000 rooters who made the trip to Lawrence were more than repaid for their time. Another great victory was the one over the powerful Sooner squad. The flawless football displayed by the Wildcats on that memorable day will be long remembered as a football spectacle. Then the Nebraska game. The Wildcats lost but they were great in defeat, forcing the great Crimson team to the utmost and fighting every inch of the way. Victory is not everything in football, as the 1927 Wildcats proved. C. W. BACHMAN Head Coach Page 157 DOUGLAS James Douglass, football captain, 1927. The hard-hitting captain of the 1927 Wild- cats could always be depended upon for a gain. Douglass could wriggle, squirm, and batter his way through the most stubborn of lines, and his off -tackle smashes featured many of last fall ' s games.

TOWLER A SQUAD of 50 Wildcats, made up of 16 letter men, a few reserves from last year ' s squad, and 25 candidates from the freshmen team greeted Coach Bachman at the first workout of the 1927 season. Early season reports rated the Aggies an ordi- nary team, fairly heavy, but not exceptionally fast. Little was actually known about the 1927 grid machine when it took the field for the initial fray of the season with Hays Teachers on September 24. The heavier Aggie team plunged and passed its way to a decisive victory over Hays team, showing a fairly smooth offensive and some very poor punting. The score was 30 to 6. Next Saturday the Aggies went to Columbia, lair of the Mizzou Tiger, expecting trouble. On a field made slippery by a drizzling rain, the Purple and White backs crashed through the heavy Missouri line for an early touchdown, the first score of the game. The Wildcat offensive looked good almost good enough for a victory. The second quarter effectively dampened Aggie hopes. A Flamank-Tuttle combination solved the Purple defense, and despite a grim stand by the Aggie forward wall, swept to two touchdowns before the half ended. The second half of the game was scoreless, but Pagz 160 the powerful Tiger juggernaut gained almost at will, battering its way down the field time and again but lacking the final scoring punch. Captain Douglass ' punts did much to save the Purple from being routed in the second half. Kansas was next on the schedule, and what a game it was! The Aggies were at their best; the Jayhawk must be downed. And downed he was, but only after he had kept six thousand Aggie rooters in two hours of constant suspense. The Wildcats started badly. A fumble gave Kansas the ball on the Aggie 10-yard line. Three times the speedy Crimson and Blue backs thrust at the Purple line with the pigskin only a few inches from the goal line. The Aggies braced and held! Springer punted to mid-field, but stepped back of the line, giving Kansas two points. The Wildcat offensive came to life. A series of plunges, smashes and end runs and Holsinger goes over, leaving in his path several would-be Jayhawk tacklers. A few minutes later, Springer dashed 25 yards through the entire Jayhawk team for a touch- down. Dee Householder, Aggie star tackle, stepped back and booted a field goal, making the Aggie day complete. The score was 13 to 2, when after a final fruit- less passing attack by the Jayhawkers the game ended. Page I 1. FLECK 2. DAYHOFF 3. PEARSON fe 11 Using an effective passing attack, the Aggies turned back the Oklahoma Sooners on Stadium Field the next Saturday. It was Dads ' Day and the Okla- homans displayed a flashy and thrilling style of foot- hall for the dads in attendance. The game was marred by many fumbles and passes were plentiful, the Wildcats having a little more luck with their aerial attack. The game was replete with thrills, with the Purple team having a slight edge throughout, although the Sooners always threatened with a dangerous passing offense. The following week the Wildcats went to Ames, where the Cyclones upset the dope bucket to win 12 to 7. Douglass made the first score of the game when he smashed over the line after four successive plunges. Householder kicked goal, and that ended the scoring as far as the Aggies were concerned. Ames unleashed a brilliant offensive and the Wildcats were helpless before the fast charging Cyclone backs. The lowans swept down the field for two successive touchdowns, with the Purple line slowly crumbling in the second period. The Aggie offensive could not get started. The Holsinger-Springer-Anderson-Douglass combination was unable to get under way at any time during the game, and numerous substitutions helped none. On Armistice Day, the Wildcats went down South 1. HOUSEHOLDER 2. ENNS 3. SANDERS Page Ih2 llz to battle the Texas Longhorns. Disaster awaited them. The Texans not only brought out a heavy and powerful football team, but proceeded to get every break of the game and therewere many. Asaresult, they amassed 41 points, while the Wildcats were making 7. The Longhorns intercepted passes, recovered Aggie fumbles and did everything else to make the day unpleasant for the Wildcats. The saddest thing about the disaster was that the Wildcats made eight first downs to Texas ' 3. The Texas fans praised the Aggie line and pointed out that their team got all the breaks. Only once during the afternoon did Captain Douglass and his teammates play real football. In the second quarter, the Aggies had the ball on their own 22-yard line. Douglass made 33 yards through center, then 4 more, then 1. Enns made another yard, and Douglass tore through center for 21 yards and a touchdown. The details of such a game should probably be stifled. The Wildcats left Manhattan in a badly- crippled condition and in a rather pessimistic mood. Holsinger was in the hospital with pneumonia. Enns and Fleck were injured. Neely had left school. Bachman was forced to shift his backfield around and many linemen had minor injuries. Page lt 3 HAMLER Hi) WARDS SFOVEK November 19 saw Memorial Stadium field in- vaded by a crimson-jerseyed host from the north the Nebraska Cornhuskers. The thousands of Aggie Homecomers and students who saw the game will remember it as the best of the season, though the Wildcats suffered a crushing defeat. A sturdy Aggie line, holding stubbornly against the onslaughts of the powerful Husker backfield, halted the Nebraska offense during the first period. Howell and Presnell, Husker all-American candidates, plunged into the Purple line time and again, only to be halted in their tracks. Just before the half ended, Nebraska flipped a beautiful pass from midfield, somebody caught it, plunged ten yards and slid over the goal line and the Huskers scored. That was the beginning of the end. At the start of the second half Nebraska seemed a different team. The off-tackle smashes and end runs of Presnell and his mates began to subdue the Aggies. The Husker backs delayed their speed until their linemen had torn great holes in the Aggie forward wall then swept through for large gains. Three Nebraska touchdowns quickly resulted. Only the fighting spirit of the Wildcats saved them from utterextinction. Coach Bach man used every ounce of football strength in the squad and every Wild- cat gave all he had. The Huskers earned their victory. 1. DOUGLASS 2. LYON 3. DOYHOFP Page lt 4 The Oklahoma Aggies furnished the opposition for the season finale. The game, played to a meagre crowd of 2500, was one of the most thrilling ever witnessed on Memorial Field. Long end runs, bril- liant line plays, spectacular passes; every thrill known to football was crowded in that sixty minutes of chilly November afternoon. The Oklahomans had an ace in the person of Wright, demon forward passer, who completed his passes just about as he pleased. Once he caught a pass and raced past four Wildcat tacklers to a touchdown. The scoring was scattered over four quarters of play, with each team making four touchdowns. One of the Wildcat touchdowns was ruled illegal. For the Purple, Monk Edwards and Chief Sanders performed most brilliantly, Edwards staging an exhibition of pass-snatching in the final quarter which worried the Oklahomans considerably. Sanders got away with several long runs, once circling the end for a 50-yard dash to a touchdown. The two teams were equal in power, but the Purple weakness against the long forward passes brought disaster. The score was 25 to 18. The game was easily the best seen at Manhattan during the season as far as thrills were concerned. 1. HOLSINGER 2. CHIEF SANDERS 3. McBuRNEY Page 16f MERLE EVANS Of the 23 men who were awarded letters at the close of the season, eight will be lost to the squad next fall. These are Jim Douglass, Ted Fleck, Richard Hamler, Monk Edwards, Karl Enns, Joe Holsinger, Donald Springer and Dayhoff. Providing all of the remainder of the lettermen return to school, next year ' s squad will have 15 veterans. Ten of the returning men this year were Sophomores, showing that the Wildcat eleven will have experienced material for two more seasons at least. Five of the lettermen are Juniors. Although the attendance at the football games at Memorial Stadium field shows a decline this year, the Missouri Valley has had its greatest crowds in history in 1927. Valley grid games were witnessed by 382,700, a considerable increase over last year. Nebraska University carried off honors in having the largest total attendance for the season, with 82,785 admissions. The Kansas State attendance at home games was estimated at 21,000, which ranks sixth in the valley. This is considerably under the attendance for the 1926 season. Athletic Director Ahearn blamed the broadcasting of games over station KSAC as a partial reason for the smaller crowds. Despite the number of games lost, the Kansas State eleven of 1927 displayed a brand of football that was worth going to see. Especially in the games against Kansas and Oklahoma did the Purple squad win the favor of Aggie fans. And again on that cold November day when the Cornhuskers were given a first half battle that brought cheer after cheer from the west stadium. And when the powerful Sooner squad was defeated after a thrilling battle of forward passes. The season just passed had its reverses, but the 1927 Aggies proved themselves worthy representatives of Kansas State. Page 166 : All-Valley Elevens KANSAS STATE football players were represented on nearly every all-Western team and all-Valley team picked at the close of the season.

McMillian comes here from Geneva College at Beaver Falls, Pa. Bo McMillian has an unusually successful record both as a player and as a coach. He was star quarterback of the Centre College team that defeated Harvard in 1921. His teams at Centenary College, Shreveport, La., and at Geneva College have played a total of 58 games. Of these 58 games McMillian ' s teams have won 49, tied one, and lost eight. His teams have been victorious over some of the biggest elevens of the east. In 1926, Geneva won from Harvard and also holds two victories over Boston College. Coach McMillian will change the Notre Dame style of football used here under Bachman ' s regime. He has a system which he originated from his own experience as a player and coach the McMillian style. Page 168 Coach CHARLES W. BACHMAN Head Coach of Football, 1920-27 seven-year regime of Coach Bachman as head football and track coach at Kansas State has witnessed a steady and rapid growth of Wildcat athletics. Under Bachman ' s tutelage, Yildcat teams have risen, from comparative obscurity in the Missouri Valley, to a place among the leaders. Bachman and his Wildcats have become a familiar term to Valley and Mid- West football fans. Bachman has made the Purple a feared opponent in Western football circles. In short, he has put Kansas State on the athletic map, and his years of conscientious work here will not be soon forgotten. Certainly his influence will long remain. From here, Bachman goes to the University of Florida, where he has accepted a position as head football coach.

CORSAUT Coach Corsaut began court practice early this year in preparation for the Valley court campaign, which opened December 16. With three veteran lettermen to use as a nucleus and a large but inexperienced squad of candidates, Coach Corsaut made no predictions for Aggie basket ball fortunes in the season ' s race, but promised a fast, smooth-working squad. Valley basket ball fans conceded the Kansas State squad very little in the way of championship possibilities, and expected little more than an average team. The season was an up-and-down affair throughout, with the Aggies striking and winning streak for a few games and slumping for three or four straight losses. The opening game against Kansas spoke well for a successful campaign, but four losses in a row soon dulled Aggie hopes. Coach Corsaut used three or four different combinations during the season, but was unable to find one which could win consistently. The team kept Aggie rooters in suspense in every home exhibition with alternate spells of almost flawless basket ball, and woeful slumps. They could show great offensive power in one game, and on the following evening would sink into basket ball oblivion. Despite its somewhat erratic playing, the team could be depended upon to give any Valley opponent a good fight. In several games, notably the one with Oklahoma played in Nichol ' s gym, the Purple squad showed its real power, and proved itself a factor to be reckoned with in the Valley race. Next season ' s basket ball prospects are bright with several returning lettermen and a strong freshmen varsity. The 1929 Aggie basketeers should be in the thick of the valley pennant race with a fast and powerful squad. Page 177 12 The All-Star Team THE Kansas State basketeers finished fourth in total number of points made in all the conference games during the 1928 season and averaged a score of 32 points per game. The championship Oklahoma team averaged 39 points per game.

Page 179 Basket Ball ,pU)ACH CORSAUT was faced with the problem of moulding his court team from almost wholly inexperienced material at the start of the 1928 basket ball season. Three returning veterans brightened Wild- cat hopes, Captain Monk Edwards, Red Mertel and Ed Skradski. With the exception of these three men, the large squad of candidates did not present an entirely promising outlook for the season. Dopesters in the Valley generally predicted that the race would be decided from among the Kansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma teams. Kansas State was figured to have a chance, with Washington as a team to be watched. The Wildcats trounced the Jayhawk at Lawrence to win their first Valley game, 20 to 13. The Aggies were said to have displayed a crashing offense, and an airtight defense, and outwitted the Kansas team all the way. The next start against the Washington Bears proved more unfortunate. The Wildcats faltered in the last half and allowed the Bears to forge ahead to the tune of 29 to 19. The game was rather slow and uninteresting. The following contest with Missouri was different. 1. SKRADSKI 2. MERTEL 3. JONES Page ISO The battle was fast and furious, with the score tied six times during the first half. The teams were evenly matched, with the Tigers having an edge in endurance. The Aggies wavered in the late moments of the game, while the Missouri team became stronger. The tem- porary slump cost the Wildcats the game, 44-33. Mertel was high Aggie scorer with five field goals, with Skradski hooking three goals and two free tosses. The following week the Wildcats went down into Oklahoma to see what kind of talent the Sooner state had. The result was disappoint- ing but not to the Oklahomans. The Aggies dropped a pair of games, one to Oklahoma A. and M., by one point, and one to the university, 40 to 29. It was at about this stage of the race that the Sooners commenced to loom as the probable Valley Champions. Business picked up greatly the following week. The Aggies, showing complete reversal of form, took the measure of Iowa State on the home court, 38 to 28. Then, on the Nebraska court, they toppled the rather downtrodden Cornhuskers, 29 to 24. The victories over Iowa State and Nebraska gave the Aggies a rating of .428 in the Valley or sixth place. 1. EDWARDS 2. BROCKWAY 3. BROOKS Page 181 Drake proved to be weak opposition, the Wildcats having little trouble in tumbling the Bulldogs, 34 to 22. The contest was extremely slow. The next one was a thriller. The Oklahoma Aggies brought a lightning-fast and accurate team to Manhattan, bent on exterminating the Purple. When the whistle blew, the visitors were one point ahead, with a well-earned victory. No faster, hard-fought exhibition of basket ball has been seen in Nichols gymnasium. The lead wavered back and forth, and only ten seconds before the end did the Oklahomans score the winning counter. On a three-game invasion of Iowa, the Aggies easily turned back Grinnell, 43-29, but lost to Iowa State, by one point, 29 to 28. The Drake team was defeated on the same trip, 46 to 30. Returning to Manhattan, the Aggies flash- ed a brilliant offensive to turn back the Corn- huskers in a hard-fought contest. The Grinnell team, so decisively defeated in Iowa, ran the Wildcats ragged in the next game. The Pioneers won by four points, and deserved a larger margin of victory. An invasion of Missouri the next week was unsuccessful, the Wildcats yielding to the offensive power of the Tig ers. A game was also dropped to Washington. D 1. SlLVERWOOI) 2. FREEMAN 3.

Under the direction of Coach Frank Root, the red-jerseyed frosh developed into a smooth-working court team, giving the varsity drubbings during the season. On recognition day at chapel numerals were given to twelve men. A world of basket ball material is represented by these freshmen, and several are expected to gain berths on the varsity squad next year. COACH FPANK ROOT WINNERS OF FRESHMEN NUMERALS H. J. BARRE P.

Page 187 -VT-r u A m The Squad The 1927 Season npHE 1927 track season was the most successful JL that has been enjoyed by a Kansas State squad for several years. By smashing three indoor and seven outdoor records, Coach Bachman ' s men completed a season ' s performance which rivals that of any recent Aggie squad. The season opened when the mile relay team broke a long-standing record to win a first at the K. C. A. C. meet in Convention Hall. Running against the valley ' s best, Fairchild placed third in the high hurdles and Ryan won second in the 440-yard dash. Kansas State was represented next at the Illinois Relay Carnival at Urbana. In the face of stiff com- petition, the two-mile relay team placed third, losing to Haskell and Northwestern. A disastrous meet indoors with Nebraska fol- lowed, the Huskers winning with 69 points to 35 for the Aggies. Fairchild was high-point man of the meet with firsts in both the high and low hurdles. Moody won the half-mile, Burton tied for first in the high jump, and the mile relay team won a first. The Cornhuskers made a clean sweep in the pole vault, high jump and 50-yard dash, but the Kansas f 1. WINBURN 2. BURTON 3.

Oklahoma upset the dope bucket to win the valley indoor meet at Des Moines with llVi points, Ne- braska following with 26} and Ames third with 26. The Wildcats finished with 8 points to win sixth place. The mile relay team won first place. Moody captured second in the mile run. The Texas Relays at Austin gave the Purple squad its first chance to perform out-doors. Against fast competition, the Kansas State half-milers won second place, with Gartner, Axtell, McGrath and Moody running. The next day, at the Rice Relays, the two-mile team won second, with Axtell, McGrath, Smercheck and Moody running. The one-mile relay team placed fourth, but set a new school record of 3 minutes, 23 and one-tenth seconds. Gartner won second in the 220-yard low hurdles, being barely nosed out of first place by a Texas opponent. At the K. U. relays at Lawrence, the Purple half-milers won second place. The annual Drake Relays at Des Moines found the Wildcat relay teams pitted against the nation ' s best. The two-mile relay team won third, losing by narrow margins to Chicago and Iowa State. The one- mile team placed third. An outdoor triangular meet brought together Kansas State, Kansas and Nebraska. 1. BROCKAWAY 2. SMERCHEK 3. MOODY Page 189 I The Mile Relay Team N OUTDOOR triangular meet brought together Kansas State, Kansas and Nebraska at Manhattan, May 6. The meeting ran true to dope with Kansas nosing out Nebraska by a narrow margin and the Wild- cats trailing a poor third. Burton, Aggie high jumper, registered the only Purple first of the meet. Gartner. Aggie hurdle star, and Doornbos, a Jayhawker rival, outdistanced the rest of the field and raced over the sticks in a dead heat almost to the tape, where the Kansas runner forged ahead a scant inch to win the event. The two universities brought well-balanced teams to Manhattan, and although the Purple squad showed flashes of speed, they were outclassed by the Huskers and Jayhawkers. The Missouri Valley meet at Lincoln was another juicy victory for the Jayhawkers, with Oklahoma a close second. The Purple squad won two first places, setting a record in each. Paul Gartner lead the 220-yard hurdlers to the tape and set a new college record to win the event in 23.8 seconds, which also equalled the world ' s record for 220 low hurdles on a curve. The record was not allowed because of wind. The Aggie quarter-milers won an easy first at the Valley meet. Fairchild, Purple high hurdler, and Dunstan, Oklahoma runner, ran a close race which the Sooner won by a fraction of a second. Gartner and Fairchild were sent to the National Intercollegiate at Chicago, but failed to place. - : 1. GARTNER 2. McGRATH 3. LYONS Page 190 Cross- Country Wi T i : THE Wildcat harriers closed a successful season this year considering the fact that Moody was the only letterman on the squad while the other schools in the Valley had teams made up of experienced men. The Aggies won a dual meet with Nebraska and lost to Kansas and Ames. In the Valley meet Kansas State runners tied with Ames for fourth place. This was an excellent showing, as Moody, captain and ace of the Wildcat squad, was unable to run. Prospects for next year are good. Several non-letter men ran this year and the freshman material was considered as unusually promising. Captain Moody and Bond will leave the team this year.

Page 1 94 13z 1928 Varsity Baseball Squad THE Wildcat Baseball Squad started the 1928 campaign with a large but inexperienced squad, only two lettermen being among the candidates for team positions. Twenty-eight men survived the first early season cut, leaving Coach Corsaut with an unusually large squad to face the St. Marys team in two pre-season games. The Purple was routed in its first conflict with the powerful Irish squad, losing a slugging match 17 to 5, with St. Marys doing most of the slugging. Five Wildcat pitchers were touched for twenty hits, with Hoxie Freeman showing up to the best advantage. The Aggies also lost a second game to St. Marys at Manhattan. The regular season opened when Kansas University came to Manhattan for two games. The Jayhawkers displayed some fast baseball and the Wildcats lost the opening game, 9 to 5.

Brian also made two football letters. Page 196 An old hand at the national pastime, Huey ' s steady play has proved a source of inspiration to the Wildcat squad. 1 Page 197 The metal of the 1927 baseball squad was given an early-season test when it met the St. Mary ' s batsmen in a non-conference affair on the Irish dia- mond. The game was a pitcher ' s battle, with Hays of the Aggies holding a decided advantage. Bunched hits in the eighth won for the Wildcats, 11 to 5. Next week ' s games were scheduled for Columbia, where the Corsaut men were to meet the Tigers in two valley tilts. Columbia proved to be the dampest place in the valley, and in the face of a heavy down- pour, both games were called off. The rain also caused cancellation of two games with Washington at St. Louis the same week. Sadly lacking in practice, the Aggie squad re- mained in Manhattan to face an experienced Okla- homa Aggie squad, with two conference victories to its credit. John Hays upset the dope, and pitched the Wild- cats to a masterful 5 to victory behind air-tight support. The Oklahomans could do nothing with Hays ' delivery and none of the foe reached third base. Next day, the puzzling slants of Tarzan Marsh completely fooled the Redskins. A barrage of Aggie hits in the seventh put the game on ice and made the game a complete success. The score was 4 to 0. Page I9S r These two victories over a team ranked as a Valley pennant contender boosted the Kansas State stock considerably, and the outlook was bright for a double win over Kansas the following week end. The Jayhawkers had played six Valley games and were doped to finish high in the final stand- ings. Their star pitcher, Swenson, rose to the occasion in the first game of the twin bill, and the Aggies were beat, 3 to 7. Hays pitched the game and was touched for nine hits. The second game of the Kansas series found a different Wildcat team on the field. Marsh was in fine form and backed by excellent support from his mates, turned in a 5 to 2 victory. A series of Kansas errors in the second resulted in three Aggie runs, and the lead was held through- the game. A double-header with Iowa State was the next attraction. The lowans were holding down last place in the Valley percentages, and a double win would place the Aggies in a tie for first place. Corsaut chose Hays to start the first game, and John sailed along nicely until the third when Ames bunched hits and scored four runs. Snyder was rushed in and effectively subdued the enemy. His mates gathered five runs to win the contest 5 to 4. 1. BRION 2. MILLER 3. EDWARDS Page 199 7 r r. I It K 1927 Varsity Squad SNYDER started on the rubber next day for the Wildcats, but was retired in the second by an Iowa batting attack. Tarzan Marsh saved the day for the Wildcats with an exhibition of burning speed which held the Cyclones in check. The victories put the Wildcats in a first place tie with Oklahoma and the twin bill with the Sooners the following week end was the crucial series for both teams. The two games with Oklahoma found the Wildcats in their worst slump of the season. The Sooners had everything their own way, winning both games by small scores. Snyder and Marsh were ineffective. The Jayhawkers effectively wrecked whatever title hopes the Aggies may have had the following week. Two games were dropped to the University nine, to the surprise of fans. The first was closely played, but the second game was a slug-fest, with both teams smacking the horsehide to every corner of the lot. The K. U. series marked the last appearance of the Wildcats on their home diamond. Two games remained to be played, both with the unfortunate Iowa State team. The Cyclones produced a surprising offense to win the first game by a small score. The Wildcats finished the 1927 season by winning the second of the series, the last game on the Valley schedule. The 1927 nine demonstrated more than once a powerful batting attack, and in early season games played baseball worthy of a championship team. I III 1. HAYES 2. SNYDER 3.

As a means of encouraging wrestling at Kansas State, a statewide wrestling tournament was inaugurated this year. Nearly 100 high school wrestlers took part. It is expected that the tournament will be made an annual affair. The high school tourney was won by Wichita High, with Kinsley second and Manhattan third. Letters were awarded to John Richardson, W. L. Doyle and C. B. Crews at the close of the season. Richardson is captain-elect of the squad for next year. CAPTAIN HINKLE 1 RlCHARDSON- 205 LONG MELIA DOYLE SHERWOOD ALLEN MR. L. P. WASHBURN Director of Iniramurals Intramural Athletics TNTRAMURAL ATHLETICS have been in existence at the Kansas -JL State Agricultural College for six years. The work was started in the fall of 1921 by Mr. E. A. Knoth. The first activity was basket ball. This was followed by baseball and tennis in the spring of 1922. Each year since then has seen a growth until a total of twelve types of activities were offered in 1925-1926. In December, 1925, Mr. Knoth accepted another position, and Mr. L. P. Washburn was placed in charge of the Intramurals, beginning the first of February, 1926. The form of organization was not changed to any extent, but beginning with the fall of 1926 several changes were made in the activities included in the program. The bicycle rac e first introduced in 1923 was dropped and horse- shoe pitching and soccer football were added. The first schedules of these sports played during the fall of 1926 were a decided success. Intramural athletics are designed to meet the needs and requirements of that large number of students who do not take part in varsity athletics through lack of time, ability or inclination. The aim is to furnish recreation, exercise, social contacts, and the development of good sportsmanship. The backbone of the Intramural Athletic Association is the group of fraternities which form the principal membership. Independent clubs and teams and individuals are also included in the membership of the association. Any male student in the college is eligible to compete in the intramural activities, except varsity men who may be eligible under certain conditions. The department attempts to provide facilities for all types of sport in which there is interest shown on the part of the students. During the year 1926-27, thirteen sport activities were in- cluded in the list of schedules. In each one there was an increase in the number of entries over the previous year, especially in the tennis, cross-country, boxing and wrestling tournaments. Sweaters and intramural emblems are given to the 10 men who score the greatest number of points during the year, and emblems only are given to the next 10 high-score men. Gold medals are given the winners of all individual events. Trophies are awarded to the organizations winning the team sports. Page 20 Intramural year a large and beautiful challenge trophy was offered JL which will become the permanent property of the organization which wins it three times. Each year a small trophy emblematic of victory is given to the organizations winning the largest number of points during the year, which remains permanently with the organi- zation. A trophy is also given to the team finishing in second place. It is the hope and aim of the Intramural Department that every man in school will take part in at least one of the activities of the intramural program. The intramural trophy for the year 1927 was won by Sigma Phi Sigma. The cup given for second place was won by Delta Tau Delta. The track trophy was won by the same fraternity. Intramural high-point men for 1926-27 were as follows: PAUL HOWARD Horseshoe Champion L. M. F. B. W. J. M.Q. H. B. C. P. R. R. W. I. E. R. W. J.

The soccer championship was won by the Delta Sigma Phi fraternity. Page 207 M Horseshoe Doubles Champions Intramural Program FALL THE fall program of intramural activities is well filled with a horseshoe pitching tournament, a soccer schedule and the cross- country run. The first two sports were used for the first time last year and were very successful, 285 men competing in the horseshoe singles and an equal number in the doubles. Twenty teams were entered in the soccer schedule, which was played in full. In the cross-country race 140 men competed; a large increase over any previous year. The intramural course record was lowered by almost a minute. WINTER Basket ball is probably the favorite winter sport. A total of 27 teams played out last winter ' s schedule. Two basket ball courts are available for these games and more are needed. The number of entries in each event from an organization has been limited to three for the indoor track meet and to five for the swimming meet in order to lessen the over-crowding. The boxing and wrestling tournaments showed a very large increase in number of contestants over any pre- vious year ; a total of 139 swapping punches and rolling on the mat. An admission fee is charged to the finals of the wrestling and boxing tournaments and to the final championship basket ball game, the money being used to defray intramural expenses. SPRING The spring intramural sports include baseball, tennis, outdoor track and handball. A total of 278 men competed in the tennis singles and 252 in the doubles, this being an increase of 48 in each case over the previous year. These matches are played on the sixteen clay courts located west of the gymnasium. In baseball 27 teams, including a total of 340 men, played an unusually close race for the cup. Baseball is played on two diamonds located in the city park. Plans are being made to establish an Intramural Athletic Field on college land which can be used for both soccer and baseball. Delta Tan Delta Track champions, 1927 Page 208 Intramurals REATER interest was shown in boxing and wrestling this year than ever before. The entry lists were much larger and contest- ants more evenly matched. A large crowd saw the matches, especially the finals. Boxing this year had an entry list of 152 as compared with 135 last year. The interest taken by fraternities in boxing and wrestling promises to make them foremost in intramural sports. Individual winners in boxing were as follows: Finish of an Intramural Final Race Class 115 125 135 145 158 175 Heavy Winner R. WILSON R. PAYNTER F. BOND . J. LIMES L.

An increasingly large number of men compete in the intramural track events each year, both indoor and outdoor. Competition is keen among fraternities and other campus organiza- tions for the trophies which are awarded and this year unusually fast time was made in all the races. The intramural meets do much toward developing varsity material and their popularity should prove a great aid in promoting better athletics here. Below The start of two intramural races Page 21 14z Intramurals intramural swimming entries this year were held down to JL three men in each event in any one organization, and no man could compete in more than four events. Eighty men were entered in the swimming meet. The competition was close between Delta Tau Delta and Alpha Tau Omega, the former winning by a score of 54 to 50. Lambda Chi Alpha was third with 24 points and Sigma Alpha Epsilon was fourth with 18 points. Individual winners in the swimming meet were as follows: A n Intramural Point Winner 40-yard free style R.

The chief justification of the emphasis now placed on the major sports, which allow competi- tion on the part of only a limited number of students, is that the facilities and funds thus provided may be utilized for the physical betterment of all students at the college. Kansas State carries on a very extensive men ' s intramural program. Each organization competing is a member of the Intramural Association.

Strong competition was demonstrated by the classes and organized groups in hockey, volley ball, baseball, swimming, basket ball and horseshoe pitching. Over 100 girls participated in each of the several sports. The first class in the physical education course will be graduated in 1929. Beginning three years ago, the curricula has been enriched until the full four-year course of study will be completed next year. At the present time 47 girls are en- rolled in the new course. The fall and winter sports offered by the department include : Hockey, swim- ming, dancing, volley ball, clogging, basket ball and floor work. The spring sports are tennis, track and field, archery, and baseball. Two changes were made in the department personnel during the past year: Miss Katherine Geyer, graduate of Sargent and Ohio State College, has charge of the intramurals and swimming. The other new member of the faculty is Miss Dorothy Sappington of the University of Missouri, who has instructed the dancing and corrective classes. Miss Myra Wade and Miss Geneva Watson, former in- structors, resigned during the past year. The new physical education course, installed at the college three years ago, was introduced largely through the efforts of Miss Ruth Morris, head of the Women ' s Department and a graduate of the University of Wisconsin course. The course is intended to train not only for the specialized work of teaching physical educa- tion, but also to give a well-rounded general education. Two years of elementary physical education work are required of all women students in the college. Page 2 J D zS W. A. A. Council OFFICERS President .

The Dining Room Page 220 i3 Van Zile Hall ' i HORNER Cox PAULSEN ANDERSON S TAN ZILE HALL, first dormitory for women to be built at K. S. A. C. is the result of a v movement started in 1919 to establish dormitories at the five state schools. In 1921, largely through the efforts of the Kansas Council for Women, a bill was passed, but the appropriations were not sufficient to provide each school with a dormitory. Kansas State offered to wait, allow- ing the other schools to build, with the understanding that the K. S. A. C. dormitory would be built later. It was not until the 1925 session of the legislature that the combined efforts of the Kansas Council, the A. A. U. W., and others were successful in getting the dormitory plan through- The hall is named for Mrs. Mary Pierce Van Zile, Dean of Women, who was active in support of the project and in making the dormitory as completed an ideal college home. The hall stands on an elevation in the northeast corner of the campus, the location being admirably suited to future improvements with drives, walks, trees and shrubs. Space for two other dormitory buildings, to be erected when the need for them is felt, was provided for in locating the building.

Reserve Officers Training Corps is organized under the National Defense Act of 1920, JL and has for its purpose the qualifying of selected students at civil educational institutions as officers of the Organized Reserve. Two years of basic training are required of all male students at K. S. A. C. who are physically fit. Students who complete both the basic and advanced courses are offered commissions in the Officers Reserve Corps, acceptance of which is optional.

CHURCH Cadet Colonel A PPOINTMENT as a staff officer of the Cadet Corps of nearly 1,200 men is one of the highest - - honors which the College can bestow. Selection of a Cadet Colonel, Lieutenant-Colonel and two Majors is made each year on the basis of scholarship as displayed in Military Department work, appearance, and leadership, and all-round executive ability as displayed both in R. O. T. C. work and in all college activities. It is customary with the artillery and infantry units to alternate in furnishing the Cadet Colonel, the Lieutenant-Colonel coming from the branch not furnishing the Colonel. Standards were tightened up considerably in the advancement of cadet officers during the past year, and very few promotions were made. Selection of the cadet staff officers was not made until some time after the beginning of the fall semester, in order to give the department officers time to confirm their selections by watching actual performances. BENNE FISHER HAZZARD Page 224 Honorary Staff Officers EACH year, the cadet corps at Kansas State holds an election, with every cadet participating, to choose an honorary cadet colonel as sponsor for the regiment, and an honorary major for each of the three drill battalions. The girls selected as honorary officers are the reign- ing queens of the annual Military Ball, and also review the regiment at the annual parade given in the spring. Candidates for honorary staff positions are nomi- nated by a committee of advanced R. O. T. C. officers, elected by the entire advanced course. Sixteen girls were nominated, to provide in addition to the four staff officers, a sponsor for each of the 12 cadet companies. Each member of the cadet corps votes for four candi- dates, with no order of preference. Miss EL DELLE JOHNSON Honorary Colonel THE HONORARY OFFICERS Honorary Cadet Colonel ....

M. PETTY, Infantry, U. 5. Army M 1 ILITARY instruction at Kansas State has made con- sistent and notable progress since the inauguration of the Reserve Officers ' Training Corps in the leading educational institutions of our country. The efforts and team work of the cadets, and those in immediate charge of their instruction, coupled with the hearty __ _ support of the head of the institution, finally placed this k. H college, in 1927, in that selected class officially recognized 1 --I H and designated in orders by the War Department as Distinguished. Although this instruction has its op- ponents in the faculties and student bodies of several colleges, I have never seen any examples of its alleged injurious effects. In addition to the train- ing given in the technical and tactical handling of weapons of war, students are instructed in command, leadership, teamwork, respect for constituted authority, and citizenship. This de- partment, therefore, not only aims to prepare its students to take their proper places in a time of national military emergency, but endeavors also to assist them, in a measure, with information and guidance designed to be valuable in the more usual times of peace. The regiment this year has maintained the high standard set by its predecessor and has reflected credit upon itself and the institution by its work. The Coast Artillery Corps By MAJOR C. D. PEIRCE, C. A. C., U. 5. Army The missions of the Coast Artillery are numerous. As its name implies, it is the protector of our coast line. In addition to this, it protects our inland towns from aircraft raids and furnishes protection for all branches of the military service and their establishments from air attacks. This protection is now very effective, since the improvement in the accuracy of anti-aircraft weapons, which has progressed tremendously in the past two years. The Coast Artillery Unit at this institution was organized on July 1, 1920. Its general object, like other units, is t o qualify students for positions of leadership in time of national emergency, thereby enabling them to be of greater service to their country. Upon completion of the basic course a student is expected to possess the necessary qualifications to perform the duties of a qualified non-commissioned officer; upon completion of the first year of the advanced course the student should be able to function in the expert gunner positions. This course completes the theoretical knowledge the student is expected to acquire prior to his attendance at camp. The Coast Artillery Camp is normally held at Camp Knox, Kentucky, thirty miles from Louisville, and for a period of six weeks, beginning about June 15th and ending about July 26th of each year. At this camp the student puts into practical application the theoretical knowledge obtained during the preceding three years. The second and final year, advanced course is designed to round out the general military education of the student and to give him the training necessary to fulfill his duties as a second lieutenant.

After all is said and done, we realize that it hasn ' t been just work. Instead it has been a genuine privilege to chronicle, as best we could, the events at Kansas State during the year 1927-28. At best, we can only touch upon the features of the year a mere glimpse behind the scenes. We cannot, in one volume, record the life of a mighty institution, even for so short a time as a year. It would require a good many volumes to do that. We have left much unsaid. The staff sincerely hopes that you, as students at the college, will find enough of interest in the book to justify its publication. Realizing that the Royal Purple is essentially a book of the campus, a record in picture and print of scholastic, social, and athletic activities at Kansas State, it has been our chief purpose throughout to transfer the spirit of the campus to these pages. The motif of the book is one of college life. If we have given to our fellow students any- thing that will bring closer and help retain in their memory the most wonderful of all days college days this volume has achieved its purpose. If we have recalled in one way or another, the joys, the heartaches, the hard times and the good times of going to college, this staff feels amply repaid for its labors. THE STAFF GORDON S. HOHN, Editor-in-Chief ROBERT F. JOHNSON, Business Manager MARIAN DALTON, Treasurer EULA MAE CURRIE, Assistant Editor ELSIE HAYDEN, Feature Editor HELEN KIMBALL, Organizations Editor MARY MARCENE KIMBALL, Advertising Manager JAMES CULLUM, Assistant Business Manager FOREST WHAN, Circulation Manager CULLUM CURRIE HAYDEN Page 366 The 1928 Royal Purple We regret not at all the lost vacations, the neglected classes and the thousand and one cares that are con- nected with the publication of a college annual, if we have made brighter in your recollection your college life. We have tried, as has every other staff before us, to give Kansas State its best year-book. The defects of this volume are the result of the double handicap that besets every staff: lack of time and inexperience. We have no chance to profit by our mistakes, nor by the mistakes of previous editors. If we had it to do over again . We mourn with those of you who paid for pictures and do not find them in the annual, or those who find them in the wrong section, or those who forgot to have your pictur e taken. These things happen every year; we usually try to blame them on the janitor, and, failing in that, take the blame ourselves. The staff wishes to express its sincere apprecia- tion for the co-operation of the student body and faculty in completion of the book. We wish to thank the organizations on the campus which so kindly aided us in gathering material. And we get down on our knees to the kind pro- fessors who neglected to register our cut classes, or who generously skipped us in the morning recitation because we looked so sleepy. And so saying, we ' ll lock up the office. Turn out the lights, will you, Johnson? Just a minute, girls, and we ' ll walk home with you. And, oh yes we hope you like the book. R. F.

' 1 Prominent Dean ' s conception of Creek life (Name on request) Page 172 A oocio.1 kaaoer TOT ov-ce K M High and Dry HERE we have the official water-wagon of the Hill. Reading from left to right: Earl Crocker, the Sigma Nu Idol, has unquestionably won the place of driver. Marshall Ross, big A. T. O. Papa, has been inclined to settle down this year, but his excellent record for past seasons gives him an honorary place for life. Vic Meseke, the Acacia Play-boy, needs no recom- mendation. Frosty Hagenbuch, the Sig Alph Sponge, started it all. (His contemplative expres- sion is the result of his defeat for Senior Devotional Leader by Paul Pfeutze.) Huck Boyd, the retiring Phi Delt, has so benefited by his associations with the other boys on the wagon, that he has applied for a position as prohibition agent. Les Platt is the organization mascot, and was given his place as a blind to the authorities. Since Toot Charles has had such a difficult time trying to equal his record of last year, he is undecided whether to remain on or off the wagon. (The management regrets to announce that owing to the fact that a big party was given the night preceding the taking of this photograph, the rest of the chapter could not appear.)

The company has appreciated the extensive orders on case lots received from you, and trusts that they will continue in the future. Every effort will be made to fill them satisfactorily. With best wishes for the New Year, The Goetz Sales Porce KA:SH From the Sig Alph files - - A Guide To The Use of Fraternities For The PHI DELTA THETA The Phi Delts aren ' t what they used to be. Since Max graduated their social prestige has fallen off alarmingly and the girls have ceased to thrill with delight at a bid to one of their parties. The brothers are anxiously comparing schemes to regain their lost glory and wondering just how it all happened, anyway. Picture of a Phi Delt pouring a heavy line BETA THETA PI Now that the Betas have forsaken the big he-men from the farms for a more frivolous type, their stock has been going up by leaps and bounds! Yes, the Betas are coming back this year. Since Billy Jardine was pledged, he has been running the chapter in fine shape. Now we ask you, isn ' t it strange what mere politics can do? A Beta Athlet? DELTA TAU DELTA Master James Douglass wishes to announce at this time that it was really he who sent the life-size portrait of himself in a track suit to the Pi Phi chapter for Christmas. The touching little incident did much to establish the fraternity on a firm social foundation, and the Pi Phi house will never have a greater treasure than the precious memory of the sweet occurrence. A Delta Tau out for track KAPPA SIGMA The words Kappa Sigma were originally in the Black Feet language. Literally translated they meant anybody and everybody. There are some archaeolo- gists who insist that Kappa Sigma means heavy lead, but they largely are of the behavioristic branch. Kappa Sigma is now considering the founding of a new trust fund to be used in the establishment of a new college so that a new chapter of Kappa Sigma can ' be founded. Kappa Sig promoting stock Page 376 Prospective Aggies of Next Year PI BETA PHI This year was open season for the Pi Phis. Anyone who had the where- withal to assist in paying for their new mansion on the hill could wear an arrow. Several of the little girls with fathers who were big business men in Bunkum Center were almost killed in the rush. It is rumored that the chapter is seriously considering the adoption of Horses as an official song. Picture of a Pi Phi looking mo dest KAPPA KAPPA GAMMA The Kappas have been riding on their national reputation for some time now, but they made a noble effort to come back this year. By underselling all the other sororities on Royal Purple subscriptions, they managed to get four girls (none of whom placed), up for the beauty contest. With the assistance of Minnie Lee Marks they hope to raise their chapter rating to a pre-war standard again. Picture of a Kappa going to a party CHI OMEGA With the new Pi Phi house over half finished, the X Horseshoe girls were hard put to it this rush week. However, they covered up any deficiencies by going out for quality rather than quantity, and, as one of the sisters quaintly remarked: At least we didn ' t have to take in half the freshmen class! Nevertheless, it is an open secret that they speak of next year with bated breath. Chi Omega in formal dress DELTA DELTA DELTA The sisters Tri Delt are still ably living up to their chapter slogan of Beautiful, but Dumb. In addition, they this year seem to feel that they are the best aspirants for a K. S. A. C. interpretation of campus aristocracy. So far no one has been able to discover just what they have to get so high-hat over, though there have been several surmises to the effect that it may be for lack of anything better.

DORTHEA WATTS Because her taxi service for fraternity men is the best in town; because she holds the Pi Phi championship for late dates; because she believes in making the most of leap-year. HAROLD WITT Because he is living up to Kappa Sigma tradition by growing a mustache; because he has the worthy ambition of being the campus man about town; because he has such beau- tiful self-confidence. MARY L. EVANS Because she offers conclusive proof that silence is golden; because she is this year ' s entrant for the annual Tri-Delt Publicity Stunt.

Page 378 D An Aggie Travelogue (Aboard a Rubberneck Bus) By L. N. G. T ADIES and Gentlemen, we are now entering the campus of the far-famed Kansas -H ' State Agricultural College, with the emphasis on the Agricultural. Here on our right we have Nichols Gymnasium, not named for Bill Nichols, however. The gymnasium contains the Delta Tau Delta trophy room, lockers, and shower baths. The next building on your right is not the slaughter house, much as you might think so from the sounds pouring forth from it, but is instead the auditorium. At the present moment the college chorus is rendering ' No brave and free on land or sea. ' Facing the auditorium on the left is the department of Home Economics classes in child welfare are taught there. Now, isn ' t that optimism? Courses in every con- ceivable household subject are conducted. The girls coming out of the building have just been dismissed from ' Little Johnny II ' and ' Rolls and Buns III. ' We are now approaching Fairchild Hall, wherein is housed the collection of toads and turtles that each year are placed in the beds of the Alpha Delta Pi ' s by boisterous Pi Kappa Alpha boys. Blushing boys and girls fresh from the billowy plains of this great commonwealth are here taught the hidden meaning of life. The next structure is Anderson Hall which contains the President, Vice-President, and Secretary. Here is where all the money is handled with the most up-to-date methods, for it has been nobly said by Andrew Mellon, ' To save time is to save money. ' So the rooms in this building are constantly being moved around so that the men can never find it. And here is the Chemistry and Physics building well, well the two men you see behind it, trying to hide a couple of cigars, are none other than Mike Ahearn and Professor H. H. King. They are probably trying to get together on jokes on each other for next year ' s freshman watermelon feed. Hello, Doc. Hello, Mike. Fine day, ain ' t it? The next building is the new Library. Two million dollars and not finished yet. Twelve men were prostrated by the heat while carrying heavy books records of college bulls and stallions from the old building. The Agricultural buildings that you see dimly in the distance, Ladies and Gentle- men, are the best equipped buildings in any college in the world it has been estimated that each Kansas farmer has to pay the equivalent of two bushels of wheat or a load of corn every year to keep this fine building in typewriters and adding machines. It was in the little building between the two wings of Waters Hall where Royal Lady Pond Lily IV, the famous Guernsey Jersey hybrid, gave 23 gallons of milk in one day, the third of August, 1923 which if dropped drop by drop would reach from the college to Nome, Alaska, and back one hundred and twenty-eight times. And now making a return trip over a new and different route we have here the greatest the little lady there the dean of women.
