In attempting to express through this book the love and de- votion which our Alma Mater has inspired in our hearts, we have had but one object in view, namely, to present an accurate picture of Kenyon life in all its phases, with its numerous joys and hallowed traditions, and with everything else that tends to place the Kenyon man in a class of his own. Due acknowledgement must be made of the services of Mr. Sant, who was compelled by illness to give up his position as Editor- in-Chief, and who is responsible for whatever of merit or originality there is in the plan of our Reveille. :---=-------- The life upon our college Hill. The red-blood glorious life of youth. The life of jest and pleasant truth. Whose golden hours our memories thrill. Has thoughts and deeds it were a shame To lose as lightly as they came.

Doctor Theodore Sterling, President Emeritus of Kenyon College, died in Gambier on the twenty-seventh of July, 1912. While not unexpected, his death had inevitably to come as a shock to many friends, both in Gambier and elsewhere. Those men who attended Kenyon between the years of 1867 and 1896 will recall with pleasure and deeper emotions their acquaintance with Doctor Sterling. His kindly and practical interest in them exercised a rare influence over the life developments of those under him. And an equal enthusiasm for the good of the College itself made the years of his administration notable ones for Kenyon. Doctor Sterling attended Hobart College, and while there attained mem- bership in the Sigma Phi and Phi Beta Kappa fraternities, graduating in 1848 with the degree of Bachelor of Arts. As an alumnus he received the higher degrees of Master of Arts and Doctor of Laws from the same institution. He later graduated from the Western Reserve School of Medicine and estab- lished a considerable practice in Cleveland. Between the years of 1856 and 1867 he served as Principal of Central High School and in 1867 left Cleve- land to become a professor in Kenyon College, where he later held the chair of Physics and Chemistry. In 1891 Doctor Sterling became President of Kenyon College and during the five years following, a critical time in the his- tory of the College, he administered its affairs with ability and success. 7 he thirty-one Reveille for 1894 and 1895 gives interesting testimony as to his work during this period. At the time of his death he was Professor Emeritus of iVlathe- matics and Civil Engineering and Dean of the College Faculty. The last few years of Doctor Sterling’s life were saddened by affliction; the strenuousness of his services to Kenyon was telling upon him. But when there was no longer need for a more active demonstration, his strength of character showed itself in patience and fortitude that were truly inspiring. In appreciation as Kenyon men of the work he has done for Kenyon, and in gratitude for a firm and noble influence, we dedicate this page to the mem- ory of Theodore Sterling.

Far from realizing that you were prompted by interest in our welfare, and little dreaming that our experience was one which our immediate successors would be the last to enjoy, we en- tertained harsh thoughts against you and spoke despitefully of you behind your backs. Time has shown us that wc were in the wrong and that we are better Kenyon men because of your earnest efforts in our behalf. And now with nothing but kindness in our hearts for you, we bid you farewell. As you quit our ranks, justly proud of your past achievements, may you go filled with the true love of Kenyon, the mother of all of us, and fortified against life’s hardships with the realization that those who have ac- complished one worthy object arc better prepared for the next duty that is to be fulfilled. May you always feel the undying, unifying Thrill of Spirit that bends us to a high endeavor. thirty-five Nineteen Hundred and Thirteen CLASS OFFICERS Clan Crawford Irvin John Koehnljne Franklin Edgar Hauck Donald Wonders William Frederick Koehnline Donald Wonders President Vice President Secretary I reasurer .

For its ill-omened name, in the annals of fame. Will attest a plain case of hoodoo— Hoodoo! It’s a dreadful state, to be frowned on by fate. But it’s all of it legally due To the working unseen of the number Thirteen, As of course is well known to you. REFRAIN Good signs or bad signs arc all the same to us! Hearts without fear make hearts victorious! This is our watchword, against the unforeseen.— We’re the unconquerable Class of Thirteen! II Some will be rich, it’s a destiny which Is enough to make anyone sad! And misfortune, perhaps, for a few of us chaps. To our miseries marriage may add— 1 oo bad! Till the midnight’s ridge we shall have to play bridge. Or it’s whatever else is the fad! And it’s three meals a day till we’re all of us gray— And so how can a chap feel glad? REFRAIN III ' Some of the class will most probably pass. Although strange it may seem to be; And as likely as not ’twill be somebody’s lot To get “one in the place of a ‘’three!’’ W'hoop-ee! And you may presume ’twill be somebody's doom To display a big Phi Beta key; So it’s clear to be seen, it’s the number 1 hirtcen Which has made all of these things be!

Va. Robert Cummings Wiseman. A A [ . Classical.......................Springfield ——— Junior History O write about ourselves is a task which parallels that of the poet who penned his own modest epitaph, but that we may not appear to ex- ceed the bounds of legitimate autobiography, let it be known ah initio that we are driven to it. We came to Kenyon as all freshmen come; we experienced those exciting hours of hazing which are now but fleeting memories to us and incredible myths to the class of '16; we bemoaned the loss of each congenial member of our original fifty; we have matured into upper-classmen; we have given our Hop and our Prom, and this is our Reveille. But our record contains many hidden truths inaccessible to the casual observer. Old traditions we have shelved and new ones we have inaugurated. Hazing died from mal-nutrition. Ascension we spared from the lowing kine. At our dances we have set the pace—which doesn’t connote too much speed—for our successors. In these and many other instances our influence has been cursed or blessed by our fellow students, as the case may be. Only a few of us are left, a shattered remnant of a numerous band. Some have departed by edicts of the English king or of the German kaiser, others as the result of chemical explosions. Some few have tired of the hand of Jacobs and the voice of Stanton, leaving behind them the gold of the mine. Three wise men have deserted the Middle Path for the middle aisle, which, like the straight and narrow road at Kenyon, leads to altar and priest. Another year and we shall kneel for the purple hood, with feelings not dissimilar to those with which we knelt before the S. C. I. judge for the mercy of the black cap. And. as we sing after the nightly feast, the time will come only too soon, when we must enter the ranks of alumni. But in every memory, with every vision of the I lill and every fragmentary strain of the harmonies we hear today, our first thought shall be of the Toast—“To our classmates of dear Fourteen. B.

Being deprived of the administrative machinery that was previously in use at Ken- yon, you have had to rely solely upon the use of persuasive words and the as- sumption of a dignity that is hard to maintain under such circumstances. We believe, however, that you have done as well as could have been expected. You arc unfortunate in having lost so many men that your class is an unusually small one. But don’t let that discourage you. Rather let it be an incentive to renewed efforts to prevent further loss. Always bear in mind that ten earnest men can do as much for Kenyon as fifty indifferent ones. If you live up to the sentiment expressed in your class song, your presence will be of benefit to Kenyon and Kenyon will reward you graciously. When you advance from the admittedly difficult position of Sophomores to the happier one of upperclassmen, let it be with the determination to hold together and to fight for Kenyon and for Fifteen. 1 IE Sophomores of former years have been known chiefly as the up- holders of Freshman discipline, a title that was often only too well deserved.

We regret to note that the air of seniority has been too much in evidence wherever you were present—a deplorable coincidence. Tradition and propriety demand more or less humility on the part of the Freshman. But we pass that by. For years it has been the custom of the entering class to decorate certain buildings in Gambier with its numerals. We cannot with a clear conscience place your splotching of the village in the class of decorative art. But we pass that by, too. and turn to the more pleasant side of your career. With real satisfaction we commend the manner in which you have entered into the various duties of college life. Your representatives on the football field acquitted themselves with credit and and helped to bring a new spirit into the college. You have wrestled manfully with many of the serious things and have entered with zest into all of the diversions. We hope some day to be proud of you. But don’t try to be Juniors when you arc only Sophomores; and don’t prepare your Senior theses until you have met the Class of 1919.

We have have said adieu to rooted worl( and wandered far away; But amid the strife of our vagrant life one thing is always true— Old Kenyon, wistfully our hearts return, return to you. Wc may wander far. and the swiftly-moving world may count us lost: We have shipped success and forsaken the golden search—hut we've paid the test. The rutty, common paths know not our feet, hut in dreams wc hark Back to that old majestic Path that traverses the Kenyon Park. We can’t come hack to banquets—that night, as the sun went down Behind the Hill—but once again we see, in field or town. Serried ranks on the Middle Path, again we march and sing Arm in arm and heart to heart—the songs and their echoes ring. You. my classmen, friends so true, firm and staunch and leal. Brother knights whose steadfast cause is ever Kenyon’s weal. On the moonlit Path, or in stately halls, or beneath their lofty towers. Oft. in fancy, I weave again our garland bright with flowers. lorn is married—happy Harcourt saw him every day; Harry’s a banker—his bakery bills he can now afford to pay; Dick’s in Congress—Worthy Ghosts in Philo, he’s talking still; But with all their gain, still reign the memories of Gambier Hill. Life moves swiftly—’twas yesterday we held both place and rank. Do you steal across to Hazel Dell beyond the river bank? Do you tether cows in Ascension Hall, then blush at the thought of it? How stands the old Backbone?—Heads out!—How keeps the Gravel Pit? On the banks of the frozen Nipissing, where the Winter King is do i-g. I dreamed sweet dreams of the olden days beside the fair Kokosing. In the warm and fairy breeze from o’er the lazy Spanish Main. Came to me. merrily, the I brill’s sweet harmonizing strain. A fid the hustle of the ci'y, beneath the Northern S'ar. Under the prairie's blazing sin, cr the Southern Cross afar— Kenyon, Avatar for us of all that's good and true.

While the men representing Ken- yon in football have never failed to fight to the utmost of their ability in every game, the team has undoubtedly suffered from lack of material and of systematic training on the part of the men themselves. Hence the dis- couraging number of Kenyon defeats. With such a proposition staring him in the face Coach Mathews took charge of our athletics. Mr. Mathews came from Notre Dame, where they make football a business and a science. After a year’s coaching ex- perience at St. Edward’s College, Austin, Texas, he tackled Kenyon ath- letics in an effort to introduce some much needed element that should put Kenyon teams back on their old basis of the pluck that wins and docs not have to confine itself to glorious defeats and moral victories. He began his fight for a good football team by making his authority supreme. He then taught the men real football. The past season is sufficient evidence of his success. Mr. Mathews began the season with raw material, of whose individual ability he knew nothing, and naturally the first few games were somewhat dis- appointing. But as soon as the season wore on, these green recruits began to show some of the football knowledge acquired and to show it to a purpose. The season ended in a “blaze of glory, and without a dissenting opinion it has been decided that this was due to the fact that Mr. Mathews had carried out his two purposes. The men under his discipline did train consistently ; and they learned football. It is a system that is not limited to football, and the coach that can maintain it is a man whom Kenyon will do well jealously to retain. ninety-six The Graduate Manager Some few years ago ihc office of Grad- uate Manager of Athletics was instituted at Kenyon. It is unnecessary to enumerate the causes for the introduction of such a system. The chief among them was the lack of re- sponsibility with which the undergraduate managers handled the financial side of the various athletic departments. Doctor L. B. Walton was the first to administer the duties of the office and his efficient service went far towards decreasing the heavy athletic debt under which the Assembly has for so long labored. Upon the resignation of Doctor Walton the Assembly chose .Mr. B. H. Reinheimer to fill the vacancy. Though Mr. Rcinheimer has not had time to prove his full worth, he has thus far done excellent work. His one purpose is to make possible the lifting of the debt which hangs over the Assembly. Having accomplished that he will be satisfied. With the aid and co-operation of every man at Kenyon, together with the Faculty and the alumni, the debt can be paid. The Reveille appeals to all—the student body, the Faculty and the alumni—to aid in this attempt to free the Assembly from so great an incumbrance. Mr. Rcinheimer has assumed the duties of this office with all the ear- nestness and zeal at his command and we feel that there is no doubt of his proving himself a competent successor of Doctor Walton. ninety-seven H. D. BOWLUS. Caplain Football D. C. Wl 1EATON. Manager HR season of 1912 marked what all hope is a turning point in Kenyon football history. Since 1908. that date of glorious memory and tiresome reference, the course had been steadily downward until it seemed that Kenyon football and athletics in general were fast ap- proaching the point of demoralization. If an attempt was made to lighten the schedule, the team seemed to invariably suffer a corresponding loss of ef- fectiveness, and thus Ohio University won by a larger score than did Reserve. Indeed the only consolation in it all was the fact that when pitted against really strong opponents, the men braced up and made a semblance of the old time showing. This situation was gloomy enough in itself, but there is some pleasure in looking back to it now that the change seems to be at hand. I he solution to the problem appears to have been reached in the person of our new Coach, Mr. R. L. Mathews. His discipline and training took hold of a bunch of recruits even greener than usual, and in the face of early defeats and disap- pointments, molded out a consistent football machine which before the end of the season was able to win an unusual share of well earned victories. Another potent factor in the improvement was the permission generously granted by ninety-nine the Ohio Conference to play Freshmen. This increased the material avail- able. though it did not lighten the task of whipping it into shape. After a little more than a week of practice, the first game was played against Millersburg High School. The object was to try some of the men in action and get a line on their abilities, but the game was too easy to serve either purpose, and Kenyon swamped her light opponents by a 100-0 score, without gaining much in the line of experience. The second game was with Ohio University at Athens, and resulted in a 7-7 tie, which was an improvement over the crushing defeat of the previous season, but did not fulfill the expectations of the Coach. In this game the men learned something of real football, but as Adrian College cancelled the game scheduled for the next Saturday, an inopportune day of idleness re- sulted. 1 hen followed the disastrous nineteenth of October, and a 42-0 dcfe.it at the hands of Reserve, the worst in the history of athletic relations between the two colleges. Lacking in experience and fighting spirit, the team went to pieces at the first onslaught, and Kenyon sympathizers were forced to console themselves with the wonderful individual playing of Gayer and Thompson. In this game the former started a series of star performances that finally landed him in a deserved position on the theoretical All-State team. 1 he next game was with Wittenberg, and the hoodoo was still with us. Wittenberg nosed out a victory, the score standing 6-0. Muskingum played at Gambicr the next Saturday, and without putting up an extraordinary game, Kenyon was able to run up a total of fifty-two points. The Case game which followed was another defeat, but there seemed to be a large element of luck and those on the inside began to take heart. At C incinnati, on November 16, came the great surprise of the year. I o many the situation now seemed hopeless and the result was awaited in Gambler with gloomy forebodings. But when the news of a clean cut victory over the really strong University of Cincinnati team was announced, all were ready to believe that the team had at last struck its real stride. The victory was highly appreciated in Cincinnati, and the Kenyon alumni of that city en- tertained the team and its supporters with a banquet after the game. The climax and end of the season was a profoundly satisfactory one, and took place in Gambicr. Wooster was the victim. An unusually large crowd attended and the team went into the fray with a new confidence that left but little chance for Wooster. One touchdown was secured in short order and by one hundred straight football, and though unfortunate fumbles allowed the next to go to Wooster, and a successful attempt at goal put them one point in the lead, the final result never seemed in doubt. Before the game was over, two more touchdowns had been made, both goals kicked and three points added through a beautiful place kick by Quarterback Tasman. The feature of the game was easily the line bucking of Captain Bowlus, who concluded his college football career by playing in All-State form, and was carried to the dressing rooms on the shoulders of enthusiastic rooters. The final score was 23-7. Immediately after the last game. Eric Tasman, ’14, was elected Captain for the next season, and under his leadership and the direction of Coach Mathews, football possibilities for Kenyon become probabilities, and so far as their individual energies can determine, they approach certainty. The victory at the close of course set everybody to figuring on the excellent out- look for next season, and it should now be our endeavor to have every avail- able man return for next year and so seize the opportunity of getting back into the front rank in the Ohio Conference. Consideration of the net results of the season is encouraging. The team played always against representatives of larger colleges, yet managed to win three games, lose three and tie one. In the Conference it got well away from the doormat position, with a percentage of 400, losing only to Case, Reserve and Wittenberg. That the team, as it closed the season, was clearly superior to the Wittenberg team, is shown by the result of the Wooster game. Taking the Millcrsburg score into consideration, Kenyon scored double the number of points made by her opponents, and without that game is still two points ahead, —a narrow margin but one that stands for much under the circumstances. one hundred and one Season of 1912 H.

November 22 one hundred mid three Basket Ball HU maintenance of basket ball at Kenyon as an intercollegiate sport is an open question. As yet there has been no team which could be accounted a successful one, if success or failure is to be judged by the number of games won or lost. The team of 1912- 13 was little different from former ones. Let it be understood, however, that this so-called failure was in no way due to any lack of consistent work, either on the part of the team or on that of the coach. Rather it resulted from the scarcity of natural basket ball ability together with lack of experience. During the past season Kenyon won but a small percentage of the games played. Because of this inability to win at basket ball there has been some talk of abolishing the game as an intercollegiate sport. On first thought such action might be deemed wise, but when reconsidering the whole matter it takes on a very different aspect. In the first place, the doing away with basket ball would remove the one compulsory midwinter exercise, it having been shown that class teams are inadequate. Moreover, the men who go out for basket ball are among those who usually try for football. 1 he exercise and practice due to basket ball become, therefore, a material aid to the develop- ment in these men of a speed and an ease of handling the ball to be obtained in no other way. Thus it appears that to abolish the game would be detri- mental to the college, and that such agitation should be stopped. one hundred and five E. M. Tasman R. L.

Left Forward Right Forward Center Right Guard Left Guard one hundred and six Baseball S has been the case in previous years, baseball holds the second place in Kenyon athletics so far as enthusiasm is concerned. Base- ball is not a sport which arouses as much emotion as football does, and for that reason the bonfire and the rally are not the typical sights of spring and early summer. Nevertheless, there is a quiet but deep loyalty to the team in the hearts of Kenyon undergraduates, and the interest shown by the baseball fans is just as real, if not as vociferous as that of the football rooters. The season of 1912 was a curious one. For several reasons the outlook for a winning team was so pcor that no games were scheduled when open dates were plentiful. When, with a change of plans, it was decided to organize a team, the season was so far advanced that only six games could be scheduled, and two of these could not be played on account of rain. So far as coach- ing was concerned there was no cause for complaint. Coach Waters, who was with us last year, is a master of the science of baseball and was formerly catcher on the Williams College team. Out of very ordinary talent and in one hum!red and nine the face of generally adverse circumstances, he succeeded in turning out a team that played far from badly. We won from Wittenberg in spite of the fact that their star pitcher struck out twenty-one men during the game. The work of Captain McMastcr is worthy of more than ordinary men- tion, since he was directly responsible for the victories gained at Springfield and Oxford. In each case he relieved a pitcher who was weakening early in the game, and brought Kenyon out victorious. In two consecutive days he pitched almost seventeen innings, shewing not only ability but also a willing- ness to work, which proved to be an inspiration to his team mates. The 1913 season is now before us, but as baseball “dope is a very uncertain quantity, we cannot pose as prophets. Certain facts, however, are known. Coach Mathews will undoubtedly prove himself to be the same enthusiastic worker in baseball that we know him to be in football. To balance the loss of four men by graduation or withdrawal, we have new material in the two lower classes that is expected to turn our well. With the support of the whole college, which is expected as a matter of course, the coming season cannot be a gloomy one. one hundred and ten SEASON OF 1912 V. C. McMaster W. H. Coolidge C.

Manager Track ENYON, as a member of the Ohio Conference, has, with varying degrees of success, maintained a fair track record, but the season of 1912 found such a dearth of material as to leave us practically unrepresented. And any discussion of track athletics must deal chiefly with hopes and prospects. Beyond all doubt the outlook for the coming season is the brightest of years. Captain Tasman is our veteran track man, and having looked over the material now in college, has grown more than optimistic. Kenyon’s use of her Freshmen will materially strengthen her track team, as this same use has already added to her football resources. Moreover, among last year’s ineligibles there are a number of men. who, eligible this year, arc expected to break some of the conference records. Tasman and Gayer will presumably take charge of the weights, and judg- ing from their efficient work in the last season, we feel certain that they will show up well. Buck Carr and Rockwell, stars of last year’s interclass meet, will make all comers hurry in the sprints and hurdles. These and other events will be sought after by dark horse Freshmen as well as by the men whose ability we have seen partly demonstrated, and under Coach Mathews’ efficient guidance a first-class team is well within the range of possibility. one hundred and thirteen Tennis ITH another season as favorable as those of the last two years, Kenyon’s success in tennis will have become traditional. It is with satisfaction that we recall the prowess of Marty and of his worthy successors, Beatty and Manchester; and the task of reviewing briefly the season of 1912 is a pleasant one. Last year’s team was composed of Captain Benton A. Beatty, who the year before had worked with the celebrated Marty; Manager Sherman A. Manchester, who in his freshman year showed such remarkable form; and “Bill’’ Jenkins, whose first year in intercollegiate tennis was a very creditable one. Matches were played with Minnesota, Michigan, Ohio Wesleyan. Ohio State, Miami and Chicago, of which those with Minnesota and the Uni- versity of Chicago were the only Kenyon defeats. In the Ohio Tournament at Ohcrlin Beatty reached the semi-finals, while Manchester won the state championship in singles from Henderson of Oberlin. Neither Beatty nor Manchester, however, were content with winning one event for Kenyon, and together they wrested the championship in doubles from Miami, thus putting Kenyon at the head of Ohio intercollegiate tennis. To make any prophecy concerning the season of 1913 is rather diffi- cult. Both of the champions of last year have left us, but Captain-elect Jenkins made such a favorable showing last year that we have all confidence in him. High Moor and “Sherin Clark will undoubtedly do good work and there is no telling how many Freshmen may develop into good material. We are extremely hopeful, to say the least, and see no reason why the com- ing season should not be a good one, even if we should not be able to hold the pace that was set last year. one hundred mid fifteen Season of 1912 B.

At no time during the past year has the roll of members fallen below twenty-nine, and the weekly meetings have been well attended. This year the Stires Debate assumed an im- portance in college affairs hitherto unknown, and bids fair to become one of the most important events of the college year, due to the increased activity of Philo and Nu Pi Kappa in stirring up interest in literary matters. Here- after. following the precedent established this year, the debate will be held on the twenty-second of February instead of during Commencement Week as here- tofore. I his action insures that the men in college will have ample time to devote to the event instead of being compelled to slight it on account of the numerous activities of Commencement Week. The society has revived the cus- tom of awarding the Philo 't ’s to the men of the society doing good work. one hum!red and twenty-four Philomathesian President Vice President Secrctary-T reasurer H.

During the past two years the policy of the society has been to take only those men whom the so- ciety believes will by their work make for its betterment, and also to create a real, live interest in the regular meetings. The success of this policy in the year 191 1-1912 was only partial. In this year of 1912-191 3. however, by a strict adherence to that same purpose, the average for the regular attendance at sessions has far exceeded that of any year of the last decade. The members of the society have shown what the word work means. The meetings have been short, interesting, and so much worth while that the men who came to the first out of curiosity, out of interest returned, soon to be found among the society’s most ardent supporters.

Relying on their own efforts for entertainment the students support all plays, operas and other productions offered on the Kenyon stage, make an entertainment what it is. Puff and Powder Club is the dramatic association of Kenyon Col- lege. Membership is limited to those who have shown ability in college dramatics. The club practically supervises all productions, whether class or otherwise, and from time to time stages purely Puff and Powder Club pro- ductions. Those interested in dramatics at Kenyon feel keenly the need of a pro- fessional coach. Handicapped as the men are by not having any such help, the entertainment offered by the students on the stage of Rosse Hall is truly remarkable. During the past year the men of Kenyon have shown enough interest in dramatics to warrant great hopes for the future. Next year should see marked advancement in this line of entertainment. The stage is now well equipped and with the addition of permanent footlights will be in a condition to accomodate any performance that is desired. From minstrel shows to light operas the productions at Kenyon have with very few exceptions been highly successful. Ve hope for a continuance of this success in the future. and they The one hundred and thirty-six Puff and Powder Club OFFICERS President..................................E. M.

Regular meetings are held once each month. During the past year the Assembly has abolished hazing, has established an advisory council, has instituted the college Commons, has raised college office from the plane of politics to that of merit, has obtained permission from the Ohio Conference to play first-year men on athletic teams, has limited the expenditures of classes in social matters, and has secured Coach Robert L. Mathews for two years. The Assembly Council and the Executive, Dormitory, Honor, Commons and Student Lecture Course Committees are sub-divisions of the Assembly. OFFICERS J. A.

Strict adherence to this con- servative policy has caused the building up of a society which, though only in the third year of its existence, occupies a prominent place among the ac- tivities of the college.

Two features, however, made the season an espe- cially gratifying one to all friends of Kenyon. One of these features was the fact that an unusually large number of enthusiastic alumni returned to par- ticipate in the festivities, an item which proves most conclusively that loyalty to Kenyon endures after undergraduate years are gone. The other was the formal opening of the new Alumni Library, which occurred on the afternoon of Saturday, June 15. The speaker on this occasion was Doctor Talcott Williams, Dean of the Pulitzer School of Journalism, Columbia University. His scholarly address was an inspiring tribute to the lasting power for good that books possess. Naturally the events of greatest interest centered about the graduates from the college and from Bexley Hall. The college seniors, among them six honor men, displayed their dramatic ability very creditably in a production of Bernard Shaw’s The Devil’s Disciple.’’ At the Ordination Service three men were ordained to the Diaconate by the Bishop of Ohio. The ordination sermon was delivered by the Rev. Robert L. Harris, Rector of St. Mark’s Church. Toledo. At the College Baccalaureate Service was be- gun the new custom of having the President of Kenyon College as the preacher. President Peirce’s sermon was in substance a protest against the indifferent spirit of the age, which he called the Laodicean age.” The social side of Commencement Week was by no means insignificant. The reunions and luncheons of Bexley and Kenyon alumni and the literary societies were well attended and inspiring, while athletic contests afforded di- version for the visitors. President and Mrs. Peirce’s reception for commence- ment visitors was held in Norton Hall, the large reference room of the new library and the gift of the Hon. David Z. Norton of Cleveland. I he last and most brilliant event was the Senior Reception in Rosse Hall, which brought to a close a Commencement than which no more pleasing one has been seen in years. one hundred and fifty-seven Events of Commencement Week 7:30 9:30 3:00 4:00 8:00 9:30 7:30 10:30 7:30 9:00 9:30 12:30 3:30 5:00 7:00 Friday, June 14 p. rn.—Annual Meeting of the Board of Trustees.

Bishop of Oklahoma one hundred and sixty-two Junior Promenade—1913 FTER a strenuous week of examinations Prom week came as a time of joyful relaxation. The festivities were opened on Saturday afternoon with a basket ball game between Ohio University and Kenyon. On Saturday night an informal dance was given. Pretty girls were in evidence—a characteristic feature of Kenyon dances-—and as for handsome men—well, we are modest! Sunday came as a pleasant interval. On Monday the Chi Chapter of Delta Tau Delta entertained with the annual reception in the East Division Parlors. On Monday evening came that event of all events, the Prom. By the efforts of the Junior Class Rossc Hall had been transformed into a perfect bower of beauty. The class colors were cleverly involved in a false ceiling of maroon and white bunting. The floor decorations were unique and strik- ing. On entering the hall one passed between two large pillars representing the college gates. Around the hall were smaller posts connected by chains, thereby giving one the impression of being on the campus itself. The posts were surmounted by alternate maroon and white electric light globes Sus- pended about the hall were cleverly executed transparencies representing Old Kenyon, the college coat of arms and other symbols of Kenyon. I hese were displayed during the singing of Kenyon songs. As to the music it is sufficient to say that Johnston was there. The dances were heartily encored and the entire program was not completed until the break of day. On Tuesday afternoon the Kenyon Chapter of Alpha Delta Phi enter- tained with the annual reception in the East Wing Bull’s Eye. Earlier in the afternoon Miss Merwin entertained very delightfully at Harcourt. On Tues- day night was produced a play termed “The Junior Frolic,” which was ex- tremely original. The vacation on the following day. Ash Wednesday, al- lowed a little time for recuperation before the resumption of studies. one hundred and sixty-three Sophomore Hop—1912 [TH the Hill shrouded in the transcendent beauty of a Gambier Spring, and with the arrangements for the entertainment of visitors and the college as nearly Utopian as possible, the Class of 1914 made its initial bow as hosts in the presentation of the 1912 Hop. The two days of gayety were started off in great style by the Kenyon team’s defeating the players representing the University of Michigan in clean, well-fought sets. It was indeed a victory to be proud of and served as a very effective opening for Hop. That evening the crowning event of all—Hop itself—came. For months the committee had planned and worried. It realized fully that there was bound to be criticism, no matter how excellent the offering might be. To eliminate as much of this criticism as possible an entirely novel scheme of deco- rations was worked out. This consisted in a return to the old style of decora- tion by means of bunting, but with more brilliant illumination than usual. It goes without saying that the floor was in good condition and that the music was all that could be desired. One feature, however, must not be omitted. This is that the class of 1914 sang in perfect harmony and time all of its own class song—an unparalleled feat for a Sophomore class. I he following afternoon was given over to the tennis match between Kenyon and Ohio Wesleyan. Here Kenyon was again victorious. As a fitting climax to all, an original minstrel show was presented .n Rossc Hall on Saturday evening under the supervision of Mr. E. M. Ander- son. The show was unquestionably the “hit” of the Hop events and added another event to the glory of 1914. w one hundred and sixty-four WAILS OF A WAITER Mv table’s set. I’ve had my lunch And now I’m waiting lor my bunch. Down in the hall hear Peley yell: “We crave nutrition—ring the bell!” Swarming upstairs, the hungry troop Demand some service on the soup. I grab my tray and fall in line I o feed that Sophomore bunch of mine. I he line of I Iapsburg couldn’t be As long as that ahead of me. And when I get my soup at last, Says Mrs. Molcn: “Not so fast!

But when I reach that Sophomore smear Some kicker growls: Took you a year, Or yells this message ’round the room: You re slower than the crack o’ doom. one hundred and The College Commons A new feature, and one which will, wc hope and trust, be a valuable and in- fluential agency in the advancement of Kenyon, is the Commons. Located conveniently near the chapel, halfway between Bexley and the college, with the postoflicc and other rendezvous close at hand, it has proved the stopping place for all. The building formerly owned by “Bill Hunter has been transformed into a modern hall, with all the latest comforts and conveniences. A spacious covered veranda extends across the front and one side of the edifice. The first floor contains a lounging room, office, storing rooms and kitchen. Almost all of the second floor is given over to the dining hall. ‘1 he men sit by classes and are served by ten student waiters. I he room is furnished in pleasing colors and a newly established custom places on the wall a pennant of each defeated opponent of the gridiron. At present three such trophies are displayed. The picture of every eleven will be hung in the lounging room. A military gong, the gift of Canon Orville E. Watson of Bexley, sounds forth the invitation to meals. The food is transported by two dumb-waiters to the serving room at the rear of the dining hall, and is kept warm on a steam-table. Each waiter dishes portions for the ten men for whom he is responsible. Breakfast is served from 7:15 to 7:45, lunch- eon from 12:15 to 12:45 and dinner from 6:00 to 6:30. On Sundays, however, the heavy meal is at noon. The waiters are clad in white coats, and have acquired a degree of dexterity and efficiency which enables the management to handle the entire number of students with reasonable speed and systematic accuracy of accounting. I he waiters also take care of the linen and set the tables, and a student custodian keeps the hall and lounging room in order. A student cashier handles the sale of tickets, payment for which is strictly in advance. one hundred and sixty-seven The Commons is essentially the product of the co-operation of trustees, alumni, faculty and undergraduates. It is well equipped and is entirely satisfactory to the present needs of the college. So far it has proved a success in uniting the students and in intensifying the esprit de corps. The nightly singing of college and class songs testifies to the value of the present system in comparison with the one formerly in vogue. Every day evolves some pleasing experience, some diverting trifle, or some notable episode. The collapse of a chair occupied by a dignified senior, the dropping of the lid of a salt-shaker into a bowl of soup, the hurried departure of a breakfaster with no chapel cuts to spare—these arc a few of the elements that unite to make life at the Commons what it is. The experiment has turned out successfully, and we can see no alternative. BOARD OF MANAGERS President Peirce Dr. Allen Professor Dcvol R. A. Houston, ’14 Mrs. E. V.

E. w. one hundred and seventy ‘‘Then We’ll Remember” On a spring day in the year cf our Lord 1955 the clcetiic pullman rolled noise- lessly into the Gambier station, hesitated a moment, then stopped. I he Honourable William Webster Sant, author of “Triple lax.” Chimerical Encomiums. and other works of international fame, stepped off. He smiled affably about him and then started for the Hill with an air which bespoke familiarity. Pardonncz moi. but you’re not going to walk up. are you? some one asked. Mr. Sant continued walking. The question was repeated in a higher tone, and turning abruptly Mr. Sant found himself squinting into the face of a young man well past twenty years of age. I didn’t see any bus. so I accepted the alternative he answered. The car will be down in a minute and I thought you would prefer to ride. How’s that? Mr. Sant was a trifle deaf. T he car. said the young man. pointing to the top of the Hill. What about it? When it comes down we’ll ride up. You’re a stranger here? Mr. Sant chuckled. Well, I hardly believe I’d say that, and yet I am a stranger, considering the length of time since I was here. Oh, you’re an alumnus. My name’s John Astor, Jr. I don’t know yours, but I’m glad to know you anyway.” Sant. The Hon. William Webster Sant, the cclc------------ Mr. Sant raised his hand protcstinglv and nodded. “I’ve always been interested in your books, but I never expected to have tho hon------.” Mr. Sant humbly remonstrated. Did you come to sec any one in particular, may I ask? Not a soul. I was delayed in Cclumbus, and being unable to get a train east before to-night I utilized the time by coming here. It’s the first opportunity I’ve had to get back since graduation. Then you’ll be my guest during your stay, if my meagre hospitality is accep- table? With pleasure. At this point the car arrived and they boarded it. A few moments later they alighted at the top of the Hill. Well, that’s certainly extraordinary. Many a time I trudged up that old Hill! Mr. Sant suggested. one hundred and seventy-one Were you on the crew?” Astor inquired admiringly. Mr. Sant eyed his escort somewhat suspiciously. The reason I asked. Astor explained, “is because no one ever thinks of walk- ing up the Hill, except the crew. They run up on rowing nights for exercise.” Mr. Sant edged a little further off from his companion, wondering if it would not have been better if he had gone to the hotel instead of fooling with this young man. Astor did not notice Mr. Sant’s distressed expression, but continued his questioning. “So you haven’t been here since you became an alumnus?” “No. I haven't been in this country since the thirties. My work’s confined me pretty much to England and the Continent. I’m in this country now to back a cause which I hope you young gentlemen are putting forth every effort to aid: and incidentally, one of my classmates has been chosen by the people of this nation to lead them. Mr. Bowman! Was he a member of your class? Astor appeared somewhat awed. He was: and knowing him personally as I do. I’m convinced that he will lead the Prohibition Party to victory.” As they walked towards Old Kenyon Mr. Sant observed a stately Gothic struc- ture standing where he had expected to find the remnants of Gustave’s former abode. What’s that? he inquired. 1 he Exalted Omnipotent Freshmen live there, Astor said in an awed under- tone. Mr. Sant passed his hand over his eyes like a man haunted by morbid sug- gestions. He felt decidedly uncanny despite his English descent. “Why the adjectives? he demanded. Out of respect, sir.” 1 hey were now standing directly in front of the sacred building. The door opened and a young gentleman attired in a frock coat and plug hat, carrying a gold mounted cane, the very essence of dignity and self-satisfaction, walked sedately past them. John Astor, Jr., and the Hon. Win. W. Sant raised their hats respectfully. What a young looking professor,” Mr. Sant commented. 1 le s not a professor, Astor replied: he’s an Exalted Omnipotent Freshman.’’ Astor noted Mr. Sant s sudden change of color and suggesting they go to the suite and rest he led the way into Old Kenyon and pressed a button. An elevator descended and a moment later they were on the top floor. They passed to the front of the hall and Astor rang. I he door opened and an attendant bowed as they entered. Mr. Sant mastered his feelings sufficiently to ask: How large is the enrollment now?” l our hundred.” one hundred and seventy-two “Forty?” Four hundred!” Mr. Sant stooped and picked up his glasses. How long Iras it been so large? Ever since I can remember, Astor replied. A number of years ago. before the present entrance requirements were established, the attendance reached four hun- dred and eighty. The authorities felt that a crisis had come and realized that if Ken- yon still desired to maintain her unique position among the institutions of higher learning in this great country of ours, some action would have to be taken immediately. There- fore. the present system of admitting students was adopted.” “Before you go any further. Mr. Astor, let me ask you a question. What is this system? The gentlemen wishing to enter this institution submit their names to the proper authorities, together with credentials and testimonials as to their mental, physical and moral qualities. If their credentials are accepted they arc permitted to take the examinations. By limiting the enrollment to four hundred, and giving preference to the sons of loyal1 Kenyon alumni the plan has worked out beautifully. I presume the exams are very hard. “Not so very hard. The petitioner must be able to read Homer at sight and to render any three of the books of the Old Testament into Hebrew, selected at random by the examining officers. I he examiners in Mathematics require that he demonstrate the ex- istence of the fifth dimension besides writing out rigorous proofs of several advanced theorems in Differential Geometry. Mr. Sant recalled his own struggles with the first principles of the Calculus, but said nothing. “You know. Astor began wistfully. I’ve often thought what a great honor it must be to have graduated with a class of men who have all become illustrious in one field or another. Take, for instance, the men in your day who fought in the war with Mexico. Lieutenant Tayler. who brought so much fame to Kenyon, was in college about your time, wasn’t he? Mr. Sant straightened unconsciously. “Lieutenant Tayler was a member of my class. I remember as if it were yesterday the time young I'aylcr—’Shrimp.’ we used to call him—stood on top of the Prayer Cross and called for volunteers to go to the front and save the country. Every man in the dear old Class of 1914, responded, but it was possible for only five to go. Wc drew lots. Gregg. Houston. Retlig, Harper and Dobie went to the war under Tayler’s leadership, some of them never to return. A tear trickled down Mr. Sant’s worn face and splashed on the inlaid floor. I remember hearing President Hauck speak of those men when I was an Exalted Omnipotent Freshman.” Astor said. one hundred and seventy-three ‘‘All of my classmates made good, continued the distinguished gentleman. ‘‘Quite unexpectedly I come in contact with one of them during my travels. I remember —it must have been fifteen years ago—while browsing about the Latin Quarter I came across Professor Wonders in the Rue Vaugirard. In a stuffy little back room he was teaching several select young souls the art of painting. There he was. willingly sacri- ficing fame and honor in order to raise the thoughts of these young disciples to the true appreciation of the aesthetic. I anticipate meeting Judge Langmade and Distiict Attor- ney Carr in New York next week. These two men are doing all in their power to aid Mr. Bowman and will undoubtedly get places in his cabinet.—Astor, my boy. grasp your op- portunity now, for she’s never been known to batter the door down. Speaking of battering —Mr. Sant laughed quietly at the thought of some old occurrence. Do the boys still sing ‘There is a Hell for Freshmen’? You say. ' I here is a Dell for breshmen'? “Hell! Not Dell! Mr. Sant corrected. Surely it still exists. I presume so.” Astor volunteered. You presume so? Don't you know? Pardon me. I don't want to jar on your beliefs, but I am certain there arc not three men in college who believe in the existence of such a place. I didn’t make myself clear, perhaps. Mr. Sant explained. “I asked whether the Freshmen still sing the song entitled, ‘There is a Hell for Freshmen’. No, I never heard of the song.—By the way, I do believe the old alumni have mentioned a song about Hell and Freshmen which existed about the time of St. Christo- pher’s Institute. What? St C hristopher’s Institute. A number of years ago they found in the back of a hymnal in the Sterling Room the letters S. C. I.’ They decided it stood for ‘St. Christophers Institute, which they believed to have been a companion society to the Brotherhood. Mr. Sant tried to speak. Conflicting emotions overpowered him. Suppose we take a stroll down town. Or would you prefer to ride? Mr. Sant preferred to walk, so they went slowly down the broad walk together. Mr. Sant proved an active interrogator. Athletics managed in the same old way?” No. everything is on a strictly modern business basis. Fach year we buy as many shares as possible from the Athletic Department, and at the close of the season divi- dends arc declared. It works splendidly and you’re always sure of good returns on your money. We more than doubled on the Yale game last year, when we tied them. 6-6. one hundred and seventy-four Bless my soul! exclaimed the honored alumnus, if there isn't the old chapel, and not a stone changed. Many hours I spent in there. How many cuts arc you allowed nowadays?” Before the bout is stopped?” No. no. no. How often can you stay away from services?” Why. whenever we want to.” The attendance is no longer compulsory? I never knew that it was, Aslor responded. Mr. Sant assured him of lire contrary, whereupon Mr. Astor was sore amazed. But you believed in Free Will, didn't you? Assuredly, but we practiced Predestination. I wish I could attend chapel to- morrow. just to sec how the old place looks on the inside. Good! I’ll be glad to loan you a Prince Albert coat if you haven’t one with you.” Why Prince Albert?” Why. it’s one of the old traditions. I believe the custom originated back in '13 with Father Dickinson, later rector of St. Hilary’s Church, Peoria. Maybe you recall him? “I can never forget him.— By the way. what time is it? Just 5:30. Aslor answered. And the next train leaves? At 5:45. The southbound cars leave fifteen minutes before the hour. By taking the I (ill car the Hon. Wm. Sant reached the station just as the train was pulling in. He got aboard and as the Pullman rounded the curve he stood alone, on the rear platform, looking steadily up at the heights. Oh George.” he called to the old porter. Is that Old Kenyon up there on the Hill? Oh yes! Ole Kenyon, sure nuf. Dar’s Ole Kenyon. You're sure that’s Old Kenyon?” I he Hon. Mr. Sant removed his glasses and wiped away the moisture. Oh yes. I’s sure—Ole Kenyon! All right. George. I wasn’t sure.” E. L. T.. 15. one hundred and seventy-five The Apparition This is the tale of the men Who saw the sign in the night. The fearful apparition That stalked in the fading light. This is the story they tell. Tell and repeat again, A story of grief and woe Of three young Kenyon men. One was short and small. Another so tall that he bent. And the third with his reverent air Was a worthy Bexley gent. On a Saturday night in the spring Over from town they came. Singing and shouting with zeal. Telling of glory and fame. Singing the songs of Kenyon. Raising the Hika on high. And the year of that spring was a year When never a man went dry. Out through the town they drove And over Campbell’s hill; The road was dark and lonely. The night was calm and still. With an Alexandrian twist 7 he man who was short and small Was the whip, and a wonder it was They ever returned at all. On through the tunnels of trees. On by the hill and the vale, I hcy galloped with song and with yell Like the wind of a rushing gale. When they reached the old Backbone, With the Bexley man at the rein, 1 he speed was decreased to a walk And under a moon on the wane one hundred and seventy-six The descent of the hill was begun. Down they went by bend and crook And had almost reached the foot In the dark and gloomy nook. When with a cry and a shriek The tall man and the short Shrank back upon the scat And the horse sprang forth with a snort. And this is the tale they told. I old to their sleepy mates: We are cursed, we arc haunted and marked. Marked for the food of the Fates. We’ll flunk and we’ll miss and we’ll fail. Be plucked and left in the cold. Remember the hound in the story. The story the sires have told. The hound that walked on the hill. Ugly and fierce and alone: Well, we saw him to-night. On the Bishop’s Backbone. Remember the grad of the sixties. And his tale of the fearsome hound. How they saw him one night And then how they found T he body all mangled and torn. Remember the end of the tale: Whoever sees hound on the hill Is surely bound to fail. Their story was heard with a laugh. And Andy said with a frown. Don’t go near Bill Weaver’s When next you go to town. And the Bexley man with a smile Mused as he went to his bed. “If a horse’s shadow frightens. I’ll keep it in my head. The end of the tale runs thus: At nine on the morning next Good Titus West with reason Was sure most rightly vexed one hundred and seventy-seven At the blunders gross and many Of the man so short and small. With a grunt and a shrug he hissed. ‘‘You’ll never know German at all. Go out and sit on a fence. Go whistle and play if you will. Go plow and work on a farm. Your mark now in German is nil.” The man of the taller stature. At ten on that fateful morn. Was heard to say with a sigh, ‘‘1 wish I had never been born. Barker had spoken to him: Really it is rare, Umph-humph. it is 1 vow. Umph-humph. I do declare. Humph, now why you study Every day in the week Is what I cannot grasp. So much you know of Greek.” And from that day of woe. Never again were they found Returning from Vernon town By the hill of the fateful hound. — 07.

Baird: Has a fine line that recalls the Toreador song from Carmen. Handsome and studious. Quiet as a meeting of the chess club, but congenial and sincere. Black: Never makes a sound, except by ringing the bell. Inclines to science and spends his waking hours, six a day. in the lab. Freedom from care has preserved his beauty and his unruffled disposition. Bowlus: Enthusiastic disciple of Ted Mercer. Pctey plays football for fun and says more trite things than any man on the Hill. A statesman whose opinions carry weight and influence. Crawford: Keeps Wickham fumbling Roberts' Rules of Order, and delights in twisting the Assembly into a parliamentary knot. Disciple of Matt Quay, leaches (?) Latin to the girls up the line. Celebrates his birth on St. Patrick's day and swears by the Emerald Isle. Clark. Fred: Bangs off ragtime and leads the singing at the Commons. Once a potent factor in Kenyon cheering, but now a stately and sedate business man. Grace- ful at a dance, and as handsome as Senator Beveridge. Dickinson: Cheery and light-hearted. A reliable and practical manager, and a dispellcr of blues. Accomplishes all he goes after, and succeeds where others fail. A man more sinned against than sinning. Hauck: Bellows around a la Cuslav and keeps Rocky in a state of frenzy. Works hard, sometimes on people. Has an inordinate ambition to be a bishop and show his ability, a specimen of which we all saw not long since. Koehnline. Irv: Very cautious and afraid he’ll say something. Gets in his own road like ( rawford. but generally gets where he wants to be. Logic and method- ical. with a trace of his brother’s business skill. Koehnline, Bill: Portly and plump. Never was skinned in a bargain. Takes to politics like a duck to water, and is as well posted as Bowman. A jovial companion and a reliable friend. Matthews: Just as the Assembly is ready to acjjourn. Fitch gets up and the de- bate breaks out in a new place. Always has something to spring. Would pay half of V onders term bill to get in the choir and thus obtain more sleep on three mornings of the week. McMaster: Secluded within his cloistral retreat amid the monastic precincts of Bexley. Sings when he feels like it, and seldom says much, but what he utters is worth hearing. A favorite at Harcourt and a model for students. one hundred and oighty-two Sprague: Laughs and smiles and eals and sleeps and otherwise enjoys life. Decor- ates his room after the fashion of a Chinese puzzle, and has a taste for the beautiful, hence the presence of the bishop of Bellefontainc. Never known to get back from a vacation less than two weeks late. Weida: Happy Doc! Nothing to do but live. Moved to Ohio State last fall, but burned his O” button after the Penn State game. Bridge fiend and apostle ot Gummy. Pitches a la Mathcwson and secures the batter’s angora in a creditable man- ner. Wheaton: Edits the Collegian, plays for the musical clubs, manages the football team, runs the library, and gets away with all of it. Spends half his time in Cleveland. Neat and sprightly, with a taste for ragtime. A good boss to work for and a slude as well. Wickham: Presides over the Assembly with dignity and originality. Plays a little football and argues over anything with two sides to it. Loves those little gatherings where thought flows free. Wonders. Don: The Church’s one foundation. Runs the choir with an iron hand and imitates the Lord Bishop of Lichfield in the recessional. Sings like a thunderstorm and guards the morals of the college along the lines prescribed by Led Mercer. The Constellation ’14. Anderson: Imitates a Yid with accuracy and insight. A capable chairman and a roaring basso. Very much at home on the stage. Has stayed longer than the allotted sojourn of a Chicago man. probably due to the fact that there is no one else to represent the Windy City. Bowman, Dave: Poet, printer and politician. Survivor of three personally-conducted trips to the Reserve game via the Cannonball. I lasn’t missed a Collegian meeting or a choir rehearsal in three years. Never saw the inside of Harcourt and swears he never shall. Can name your congressman, bound your county, or tell you how to get home from anywhere. Carr: Works hard in everything he does. Sings with vehemence and writes with much exertion. Buck talks like an Indian and plays halfback like Ole Skjarscn. Keeps Harcourt ever before the college and sets an example for ambitious freshmen with hopes of becoming fussers. Dobic: A modest musician with a taste for the classical. Plays the fiddle like Kubelik and cops ’’ones from force of habit. Looks like a Bexleyitc, but claims it’s a mistake. Keeps the freshman noses down to the test-tube and juggles formula; a la Walt Coolidgc. one hundred and eighty-three Gregg: A silent Swede from Minnesota. Has a ready wit and an unfailing reply. Tinkles the mandolin and fakes a fair baritone. Always up in his work, but ever ready to party-sip-ate in a convivial gathering. Let Minnesota send more men of his type. Harper: Has a big brass horn concealed in his throat, hence the volume of tone he emits is overwhelming. You can hear the rest of the choir when Ham pauses for breath. Headed for journalism, in which he ought to be a second Wattcrson. A staunch Democrat and a shrewd diplomatist. Houston: A man of great ability. Kept under cover for two years, then blossomed forth m a hurry. Rog is a frank, open youth with a penchant for pulling down offices, which he fills with success. Books numerous dates for the glee club. Jenkins: Russet-haired son of the northwest. Exponent of the baritone beautiful and I ite West of the glee club. Bill is very adaptable and fits in any environment. Plays tennis all spring and often scores for the college. Kinder: Rosy-chcckcd and rugged. Plays a fine game at end, and deserves more credit than the scores indicate. Keeps diligently at work, except when offering sugges- tions to the Reveille board. A good scrapper in the Assembly, and just the man to lead the fight for or against a measure. Langmade: Laconic and blunt, Sam is full to the brim with pointers. He’s getting this book paid for and we’ll go easy on him. An athlete from Culver, all shoulders. If an idea once takes possession of him, gun-cotton can’t dislodge it, and he generally prevails. Rcttig: Math, shark. Fusses quite a bit at Vernon, and tells remarkable talcs of the size and importance of Chicago Junction. Some line, that B. O. Flies up in a hurry and cools off in the same manner. Sant: Head star of the constellation. Bill should be on the job as editor, but sick- ness got him. Smiling, yet serious, a rare combination of study, society, literature and business, he ha« done a lot for Kenyon. lasman:. I hree years ago nobody would ever have seen in slow, easy-going 1 assy a future football star, but Eric can return a punt or tackle an opponent as well as any. A cool head, good sense and a knowledge of the game make him a real quarterback. But he docs other things as well and should pull down a Phi Bet key some day. Uni- versally liked and respected. layler: Luckiest man in seven states. Can draw four kings to an ace. Never hesitates to say what he thinks, and there s never any doubt as to what he means. An old tradition had Shrimp headed for Bexley, but it seems to have died. one hundred and eighty-four Wonders, Weary: “If you seek his monument, look about you. He illustrated most of this book. A good treasurer at the Commons, he never lets an unpaid meal get by. Impossi- ble to keep him quiet, for he’s always whistling, singing or thumping the box. Has a K” and earned it. Lights Out in the Sanctum Our work is done— Throughout the year we’ve written and corrected. Revised and changed. If aught has been neglected. Look past our errors for the better end Of w'hat we offer. ’Tis too late to mend A work completed. Seek not for an error; To search for merit would to us be fairer. Our work is done- Linotype, press and binder now may cease To rob us of our sweet repose and peace. The Juniors’ arduous task at last is finished; Our cares—and pocket books—have been diminished. The only job that’s left concerns the sales. So buy. and may your orders choke the mails. Our work is done— Let Dobic spend a month or two in bed; Let Bowman celebrate—the proof is read: 1 .ct Wonders draw his breath, cheques, corks or aces Instead of campus scenes and human faces: Let Houston dun our friends who advertise. And Langmade watch the flood of finance rise. Thank Heaven, it’s done! We thank you all, who lent a ready pen In verse or prose. We hope you II write again. To Phillips, son of Kenyon, gentle master Of picture girls—your star rise all the faster. And Sant, whose hand this little volume shaped. You lucky chap, just see what you’ve escaped. one hundred and eightv-five Contributors To The Reveille ART C. Coles Phillips, 1905 Fred J. Wonders, 1914, Art Editor LITERARY Dr. Orville E.
