Weaver Page seven i DEDICATION ENYON has heard the war-call of the Cause of Civilization and has answered. Kenyon will continue to answer this call in deeds and action until Right has triumphed, and the “world has been made safe for Democracy.” The men in the khaki and the blue who claim Kenyon as their alma mater, are deserving of every honor that the College can bestow upon them. That Kenyon’s sincere appreciation of their loyalty to Humanity, and her own sacrifice be understood, this Kenyon Year-book, the 1918 Reveille, is dedicated to the men for whom there are stars in the College Service Flag. Page eight “Le Jour de Gloire est arrive” O Kenyon, ’tis a quiet nook In which thou dreamily dost sit: And, Kenyon, ’tis a fairy book In which thy history is writ. And yet within thy small seed-cup Strong embryos of life are curled: And in thy Teachings out and up Is all the largeness of the world. So when thou weavest of thy best A wreath of blue concentric stars. It shines among the splendidest To crown the glowing head of Mars. And Cambier Hill, cherishing still Dim memories of Lindisfarne, Is proud to feel a fiercer thrill To be a hill-top on the Marne. A hill-top on the Marne! Thy heart. O Kenyon, doth the view enhance. All proud to think that now thou art Forevermore a part of France. A part of France! So when again Thy voice shall rise in peaceful days, Thy most-sung song shall still retain An echo of the Marseillaise. Le jour de gloire est arrive! Thy most-sung song shall own a thrill From deeper sources on that day When thou shalt sing on Gambier Hill, Remembering what Time’s treasure-lids Securely keep of thine apart. Beside the Seine or Egypt’s pyramids. Or in our home land’s mother-heart: Remembering how thy sons could spring To enter battle, glad and gay. To make free life a surer thing!— “ Le jour de gloire est arrive! —O. E. W. Page nine Old Kenyon Page ten Hanna Hall Page eleven Page twelve The Faculty The Rev.

Although small, “Kitty is mighty, and when he gets behind a thing, it generally goes. He even had two big orchestras at Prom, to be sure of music. He has a way of fooling all the professors except Barker, and is “Gummy’s” loyal satellite. The chief of his bad habits are smoking long black stogies and chewing Mail Pouch.

It is said that Bill stops in at Harcourt on each of his trips home to Bexley Hall, where Baird and he keep house. He is a good clean-cut fellow, and shows marked ability as an orator and as an ath- lete.

A confirmed bridge devotee. Arthur Benjamin Parker Gambier Art is a quiet fellow, and keeps pretty much to himself, but every once in a while, breaks out in the unexpected moment with something snappy.

On Tuesday nights, he goes to Phi Beta Kappa meetings, and does his share in creating “food for thought.

Believing that he was sent to College to work, Tom has given a good account of himself. He is graduating in three years, and will take a Key away with him. But for “Bugs’” untimely return, he would even be a member of the faculty. His one weakness—women—is sure to be his undoin,’ though, if he doesn’t take a brace.

O. Page turnty-five Page txcenly-seven The Class of Nineteen E class which defeated the Sophomores in the can-rush on the third Saturday in September. 1915, was one of the largest and best that ever took part in that contest at Kenyon. They had the numbers, and proved their quality as time rolled on. The next fall nearly every member of the class returned to college, a very unusual record for a returning Sophomore class But the following spring came the war: and with it the breaking up of the Class of Nineteen. A large number of its members left before the close of the year: still more failed to return in the fall: and one by one they have gone during the passing year, until at present less than a quarter of the original number remain. For the constantly dwindling number of us that continue on the Hill, the outlook is at times a dreary one. When we gather for a meeting most of our classmates are many miles away, some are across the water, and one has already made the supreme sacrifice for the cause of humanity. However, in spite of all this, the Class of Nineteen at Kenyon stands firm and united: determined to carry out all the duties and responsibilities that fall on us as Juniors and upper classmen: resolved that while we are fortunate enough to be able to remain in college, we will do the work that lies before us to the best of our ability, so that we may better serve the world and our country when our time comes to join in the fight for the sacred principles of Freedom and Justice.

And this most aptly fits “Lee. In fact, he spends so much time making good friends that the rest of his college work suffers—yet isn’t he better off in the long run? His art work in the Reveille testifies as to his ability as an artist. In addition, he is a devotee of good music, a patron of literature, and an admirer of all things beautiful. Raymond James Harkins Cuyahoga Falls Philomathesian Secretary (3); Brotherhood of St. Andrew (1) (2) (3). Raymond could be singled out in a Bexley sum- mer school by his saintly expression, and yet the book that he always carries under his arm is not a Bible. He stays behind a book most of the time, and as a result can manage to stay in courses like Fat’s Philosophy, a feat not open to everyone. Robert U.

Elects snap courses under the pretence of acquiring a cultural education. As a founder of the Canfield Club, he feels obligated to maintain the regularity of its meetings to the best of his ability. Paff thirty Romayne Bradford Hill Tacoma, Washington If “Romev” always used his head in Dr. Cahall’s history courses as he did when he chose to come all the way to Kenyon for an education, he would have his old side partner Carter backed off the boards for grades. Always cheery and full of life. Hill has made himself a part of the “hill’s every-day life. Wendell Calvin Love Fremont, Ohio Beta Theta Pi: Kappa Beta Phi; Football (3): Basket-ball (1) (2) (3): Captain (3); Dormitory Committee (3): Coach Committee (3). When it became impossible to secure a suitable coach for the 1918 basket-ball team, the executive committee didn’t hesitate to invest “Lovey with the entire power of the department, and his excellent work more than satisfied everyone. His one com- plaint of Kenyon, however, is that the bothersome requirements of class and chapel attendance spoil, somewhat, his leisure hours. His consistent backing of the Canfield Club has made it possible for that body to declare dividends in spite of the war. Thomas Mabley Winslow. Arkansas “Tom” was at one time good natured, but Greek art abstracts have entirely robbed him of that quality. In spite of this, however, he keeps regular hours, puts Remy to bed consistently, shoos Romey” out of the halls, and acts as general Division White Wing. Tom hears so many stories about the “slow trains through Arkansas that he’s getting to believe some of them. Page thirty-one Carter Smart Miller Bay City.

Carter is a firm believer in being “distinctively individual.” But with it. his ability and willingness have made him a valuable man to have around. His spontaneous humor and ready wit are always on tap. and cleared for action. He has traded an awful red coat for a motorcycle, and when the wheels will stay on. and the engine will go, he spends his time in running down perambulators and running up gasoline bills. Yoshiharu Mineo Tokyo, Japan “Minnie” is no more satisfied to be at Kenyon than Kenyon is to have him. A keen student of matters fare over the ordinary college man’s head. Mineo has attracted a lot of respect, and his good humor and congeniality have made him well liked. Our hats are off to a man who can stand impregnable before “Tite’s” volleys. Robert James Murphy Williston, North Dakota Sigma Pi; Philo.: North Dakota Wesleyan (1) (2): Choir (3); Glee Club (3). Get it done” seems to be Bob’s” motto, yet why he did not act more quickly in coming to Kenyon from the West ought to be explained. Bob is quiet and reserved, and is not given to the disease of exces- sive loquacity. In this day of feverish excitement, such fellows are a pleasant relief. Pate Ihirty-tXLO Edward Benjamin Pedlow Ravenna Beta Theta Pi; Kappa Lambda Mu; Kappa Beta Phi; Philo.; Class Secretary (3); Hop Com- mittee (2); Dormitory Committee (2); Execu- tive Committee (2). Time was when “Peddie” persisted in playing (?) either a cornet or a ukulele, but it is fondly hoped that he has outgrown both. He has been susceptible to advanced chemistry for some time, but can dis- tinguish ethyl and methyl alcohol by the taste alone. He bids fair to follow in Carpenter's wandering footsteps. b John Lloyd Snook Troy Delta Kappa Epsilon; Nu Pi Kappa (1) (2) (3), President (3): Science Club (2) (3).

President-Elect Kenyon Assembly. Snort is a good-natured cuss, whose athletic ability and participation in nearly all college activi- ties, together with his loyal sense of duty to the College nave put him high on the ladder of popularity at Kenyon. As basket-ball manager he brought the team through a bad year in fine shape. Succeeded in creating the false impression among the faculty that he is a hard worker. Nevertheless, he is expected to take away a Key with him. Francis Wharton Weida Gambier Psi Upsilon; First Sophomore English Prize; Rifle Club (2) (3).

Assistant slave driver to Captain Remv, profound student of military affairs, and general favorite at Harcourt since the arrival of his uniform. It is whispered that he even goes home between classes so that the institution at the west of the path may have ample opportunity to fully appreciate his mili- tary importance.

He acted as a very capable nurse to the Babes in Chemistry 1. and seemed to be destined for the career of pedagogue, but the war call was too strong, and he has transferred his athletic ability to the service, where he will soon be gathering “straffed” Bodies to their forefathers. George Benjamin Schneider Hartland, Wisconsin Sigma Pi: Philo. (1) (2) (3): Rifle Club (2) (3): Executive Committee (3); Dormitory Com- mittee (3): Collegian Board, Junior Editor (3). Football (3). George likes electives, but he soon will have exhausted the supply, and will have to enroll in a few requireds. In spite of his title. “Schnapps,” he does lots of things around college. He makes the library desk his stronghold, and presides over the latest copy of Life with the full dignity of his posi- tion.

Robert Brown, New Philadelphia As a musician, we much prefer Harry Stoyle’s cat ! “Bob takes delight in waking the College with that Malay piccalo of his. He came here the second semester from Ohio State, but is only to be here one semester, already having enlisted in the N. R. Pane forty-one Russel Vance Eastman, Alpha Delta Phi, Mt.

Zanesville A quiet and seldom heard from fellow is “Andy,” but now and then he comes through with something trite that “goes home.” We wish he’d tell us what he is thinking about; we can venture that it is well worth while. Alfred Leonard Hohlfelder, Beta Theta Pi, Cleveland There's no getting away from it. “Al” is certainly the biggest man in College. Bed and a Stutz are APs best friends, and “now look at ’im!” They say that nobody loves a fat man. but “ ’tain’t so.” Chester James Holley, Sigma Pi, Martin’s Ferry “Chet” has become a professor this semester, and in order to complete the delusion, has acquired an extra eyebrow on his upper lip. He is a hard worker, and he gets results. Whenever he starts out for somewhere, he walks as though he meant to get there. Arthur Orell Howarth. Sigma Pi, Cleveland If everybody tried as hard as “Art does to make everything go that he attempts, we all would get a lot more done. He has a fund of knowledge that would fool one. John Magnus Jerpe, Delta Tau Delta, Norwalk “Jack is bound for Bexley, although one wouldn’t always believe It of him. He has a good line and usually gets away with it. Spent his spare time coaching the Mt. Vernon High School athletic teams, and did a good job of it. John Marshall Knox, Alpha Delta Phi, Lima “Charlie” is happy-go-lucky, with an occasional streak of lean. He tried to enlist for ten months, and finally got in the navy as coal passer. He expects to land a job as captain within the next two months. Had a mania for getting his head cut.

He was a foreign language “shark.” Sam always paid his board at the Commons by the day. James Herbert McMurray, Marion A loyal member of The Prohibition Party of Kenyon College is “Jimmy.” He is an inveterate pipe-collector. Jim never says much, but he is always ready for anything “once,” he says—but “any time. say we—and is well liked even by Harcourt. William Walsh McNeill, Delta Tau Delta. Dayton We hated to see “Bill” leave College at the end of the first semester and we hope he will be with us again next year. Except that he came from Dayton, he’s all right. Lloyd Larkin McCartney, Beta Theta Pi, Cleveland “Yes. there's an automobile down here billed to L. L. McCartney, said the station agent one day. Ask “Doc” to tell you about it! He was the most amiable man that ever lived, when it came to taking the butt end of a joke well. Maybe he never saw the point! He has also left College for the Service. Edgar Barton Read.

He gained fame by writing the words of the 1920 Class Song: he dabbles in athletics with enthusiasm; he tenors in the choir; and he isn't afraid to work hard enough to get his work done well. Glenn Preston Vinson, Sigma Pi, Lima It’s too bad that “Vins got a late start in College, but he is certainly making good now. He is monarch of all he surveys” at the Commons, and we don’t envy his job. Surprised the Assembly by talking at the first meeting of his Sophomore year, but he did have something to say. Harold Graham Walton, Alpha Delta Phi. Gambier For a “man of Science,” “Hal” has the most vivid imagination and the wildest theories in surveying that one ever heard of. He is a profound German student, as well as an exceptionally brilliant light in the Telegraphy laboratory. Dickson Heinell Wells, Delta Tau Delta, Dayton With “Bill” McNeill, “Dickie reminds one of “Mutt and Jeff. He is the flag bearer of the College W. C. T. U. You’re in love, you handsome little devil, but you can’t help it.” Walter Frank Wright, Delta Tau Delta, Lima Blondy enlisted in the “mosquito fleet,” but decided that he liked College better than scrubbing decks, so came back after Christmas.

Chorus The Blue Division OMEWHERE in France there is a strategic road called the Chemin de Dames”; there is also an army corps known as the Chasseurs a' pied. who have been given the name “Les Diablis Blues.” These Blue Devils are young fellows, and good in mind and spirit, and it is said that they strike the greatest fear in the German’s heart. Not long ago the French slashed their way across the Chemin de Dames; the Chasseurs, as usual, bore the greatest share of the charge. Charles Edwin Kinder. ’16, was at the front when that noble division won the day for France. Let him tell you of it. A hillside is traced by a ribbon of road, In the heights which protect the Aisne, The armies of France face the Boche abode From the scarred and broken plains. Down in the vale sounds a bugle call. And dances up on the hill: Echoing back from the German wall. To the Chasseur camp so still. Encamped is the Division called the Blue. Blue-black they rise tonight. As softly they go to carry through.” For France, and the Cause of Right. O. army of soldiers named Chasseurs, .0, Division called the Blue, The rolls are emblazoned with heroes of yours. All honor to them, and to you. The shattering roar of the fire wall. The spiteful Boche reply. Lifts their heads, like a bugle call, Gives a gleam to each sunken eye. A moment the blue line quivers there. As their teeth the bayonets grip. A moment the blue line shudders there. As their bomb-pack straps they slip. As the wolf hound leaps, so the Blue lines rise. At the sign of the rocket's glare. Charging the slope where the ribbon lies. For the ghosts which beckon there. A thousand men. two thousand strong. Drive across the Chemin de Dames— The Wotan line, like a rotten thong. Breaks as the Blues come on. Slowly the lines of heroes form: Stooping shoulders, and heads bent low. What do you hear in the spirit storm? Why do you listen so? O, ribbon of road on the hillside traced. They’ve given you back to your own: O. tattered ribbon, flower-laced From the seeds their lives have sown. In deadly tile they march along To the edge of No-Man’s-Land— Each hears the pleading spirit of Song. Ghosts at each shoulder stand. Though medals and ribbons are given you All by the hand of man. The ribbon worn by the Division Blue Is the sacred Chemin de Dames.

Kenyon has sent to the Western Front a Red Cross ambulance. On the twenty-sixth of March, 1917, at a specially called meeting of the Assembly, President Pierce presented the details of the propo- sition whereby the College might be represented in this Field of Honor. Aided by contributions from Mr. E. C. Wright, of Newark. Ohio, and three or four other good friends of Kenyon, the amount necessary for the purchase of the ambulance, together with upkeep cost for a year, was subscribed within an hour after the announcement had been made. 1 he American Ambulance Field Service, an American organization, sup- ported by American contributions, assumed practically the entire ambulance work of the Western Front, working in conjunction with the Red Cross hospital work for the whole period of the war, until just prior to the declaration of war by the United States. After two years of exhaustive expenditure, however, funds became depleted, and this work of Christianity stood in imminent danger of collapse. American institutions leaped to its rescue, and the noble work continued. A large number of colleges and universities took upon themselves the support of this work, and immediately sent completely equipped outfits into the held, and it was only natural that Kenyon should’fall in line. With her unsurpassed record of percentage enlistments, it is altogether fitting and proper that Kenyon should be the first college west of the Alleghenies so to subscribe in the interests of humanity. . The ambulance has been operating with regularity, and reports are periodically made to the College by the operators. Page seventy-six The Kenyon Assemby Warrhn H. Catt...........................................................President Luther H. Tate......................................................Pice-President Ayden A. Remy............................................................Secretary Professor Walton.........................................................Treasurer SN YON is an ideal commonwealth, a sort of Utopia, whose citizens are students of the College, and whose administrative, executive and judicial bodies are chosen from its citizens. In every sense of the word. Kenyon is a man's institution. The Kenyon Assembly is the body politic of the College. At its regular monthly meetings, controlled entirely by the students, the various committees which carry out the Assembly’s wishes are elected, and the questions which concern student activities are discussed from all angles, and solved after the order of the majority vote. The standing committees of the Assembly are five in number, and each has its definite work laid out for it to take care of. These committees are made up one member from each “Constitutional Division. in which are housed the different fraternities and the independent men. The Assembly Council is the advisory committee of the larger body, and is one of the most important of the committees. In it are informally discussed the questions of importance which will come before the Assembly at its regular meetings, and recommend to the Assembly action which seems best after informally digging into the matter.

Kenyon was the first college to establish such a system. The Honor Committee is one which exists in name only, since there is little if any work for it to do. Its function is the care against the violation of the honor system of examinations, a problem which never worries the real Kenyon man. Practically all of the students at Kenyon eat at the College Commons, where board is secured much more reasonably than obtainable elsewhere. The Commons is one of the things which makes the Kenyon man what he is: close fellowship with each other at all times of day. give rise to a common spirit that is distinctively Kenyon. The Commons Committee is the representative of the student body, whose chairman meets with the Board of Managers, in regular meetings, where problems which appertain, are freely discussed.

Baldwin-Wallace. 0 was Tuesday, and the football season was to open on Saturday with Wooster, at’ Gambier. But the new coach had not yet appeared, and practice had assumed no greater proportions than mere kicking the ball around the campus. Prospects for a winning team were not especially good: there were but nine eligible men in college who had ever been inside of a football suit. But on Wednesday morning the coach arrived and by Wednesday after- noon there had been sounded tne war-call for volunteers to take the mauve over the top against the orange and black. Every man in college who could be of am advantage to the team reported. Men went down the old hill to Benson Field who hadn’t the least idea of the science of football, but there wasn’t a single man in the lot who would not have been willing to have fought to his last breath for Kenyon. And it was just this spirit that made the 1917 team what it was. Coach Patton had but little to use as a nucleus. Captain Abbott. Remy and Snook were the only veterans: practically all of the other candidates were unknown quantities. Yet even in the first night of practice, the critic of the game found that for which he searched: the “old fight” which always char- acterizes Kenyon’s best teams. Men who had scarcely ever had their hands on the ball before rushed madly into the midst of things. The whole squad fell on the ball.” blocked and tackled with zest: it was evident that everyone was putting his whole soul into the work. And Saturday’s game proved the team’s real merit. Wooster descended upon Kenyon with a team superior in weight, experience, practice. Yet from Pate eighty-seven start to finish, the game was all Kenyon. That the result was a scoreless tie. in no way gives a comparative estimate of the teams as they fought that day. (Wooster, at the end of the season, tied Miami for the Conference championship.) The result of the Wooster game was encouraging, and the men buckled down to business, full of confidence. At Mt. Union, Kenvon walked awav with the victory by two touchdowns: at Otterbein, there was the same story, inflicted with just twice the severity. Then came the break of luck. Western Reserve was shaking in its shoes, for Kenyon was scheduled to play her fourth game at Cleveland. But on the very day before the team took the train for Cleveland, in the very last practice. Captain Abbott was carried up the “hill” with a broken leg. and the spirits of the team couldn't help but sink quite a little. The annual rally helped to cheer up the spirits of the team, but the loss of her captain, and the realiza- tion of its effect on the Reserve team, hovered about over the Kenvon camp like a harpy. The game was a good one. and, according to the Cleveland papers, should have resulted in a scoreless tie. Rut Reserve came through with a forward pass over the goal line for the only score of the game, after Kenyon had re- peatedly spilled line bucks and off-tackle smashes in her characteristic “goal line stands. and the team knew its first taste of defeat. Kenyon has a hard time explaining the Wittenberg game, played on a terribly marshy field, in a cold drizzle. Even though the ball was inside Wittenberg’s thirty yard line practically the entire first half, Kenyon was unable to hold the slippery oval long enough at a time to carry it across. In the second half, the weight of the red and white began to tell, and it was only by sheer “fighting to the last ditch. that thev were kept from scoring until the last few minutes of play. Then came the “black sheep ' of the season, the only game of the seven in which Kenyon was out-played. At Athens. Ohio University presented a perfectly drilled machine, and an experienced set of players with disasterous results to the mauve. Only once in the game was Kenyon able to stage a come-back, when Snook and Captain Abbott swept the Athenians off their feet, and bucked seventy yards up the field for a touchdown without losing the ball. The season ended with a rousing victory over Baldwin-Wallace at Gambier. although the score should have been several times a mere two touchdowns. The credit for the excellent showing of the 1917 team is due two sources: the quiet, compelling personality of Coach Patton, and the ever present “fight tor which Kenyon teams of the past have been famous. Coach Pattons work with the team firmly fixed in each of the plavers a solid respect for him which, of itself, begat enthusiasm for success on the gridiron. A gentleman himself, he was the ideal type of coach for gentlemen. Page fighty-nght The Team Left End. . . Left Tackle. Left Guard . Center...... Right Guard. Right Tackle Right End. . Quarterback.

Hack was the mainstay of the team and throughout the season he was a worthy leader of the team he piloted so successfully. He also has the unique honor of being the only man reelected captain of a Kenyon football team. Richard W. Maxwell “Dick “Dick said that he believed there must be some mistake when he got his “K. because he had never played before, but it was his hard and con- sistent work at guard that won him his letter. Dick is a Senior. William V. Mueller “Bill Bill did good work at quarter and always knew what play he wanted— and they worked, too. Bill has never explained just why he waited until his Senior year to go out for the great old game. He certainly belonged on the gridiron more than one short season. Ayden A. Remy “Crock” A letter man from last year and a tower of strength on the line. Crock was always “there doing more than his share at tackle, even though handi- capped by a badly sprained ankle received during the first game of the season. The team will miss him next fall, for he, too. is in the graduating class. Patt eighty-nine Wendell C. Love “Lovey” An all-around athlete, capable of playing a steady, consistent game either in the back field or on the line. Lovey could always be counted on when it came to busting up the other fellow's game and he was equally as agressive on the offensive. He was given a berth on the Honor Roll by All-State critics for his reliable work throughout the season. Tackle. A. B. Champion Rowe Champ After watching the first game from the side lines. Champ said he could not stand it there and, disregarding “orders. he appeared in a uniform from then on. Champ played like a regular veteran, although it was on the “Brown Derby team of the year before that he had seen service. Tackle. George B. Schneider Schnapps George first announced his football aspirations in Executive Committee, when the season's prospects were discussed. He never had progressed beyond the rooters’ row. but was anxious to try the game, he declared. The Belgians haven't a thing on George when it came to holding his own against big odds, for. though lacking weight and experience, he could be depended on for the old tight all the time. His work against the heavier Reserve line was especially good. Guard. Paul F. Seibold Monk” Monk declared that he never knew football was so much fun and showed very conclusively that experience is not pre-requisite if one has the grit and persistency of sticking to it. He could always be counted on coming up with a determined grin on his face and he couldn’t be killed. The “Monkey filled the position at guard to everyone's satisfaction. J.

Lawrence Berkey “Berk” “Berk was a hard player and although he did not play all the games on account of injuries, he was on the job, putting up as scrappy a game as the next one. Berk should prove a valuable man at center next year. Russell V. Eastman “Russ” Russ” played a remarkable game at end all season. He had a way of sifting through the opponent's interference that seldom let a man slip by. Russ will also be back to help build a winning team. Another man to be men- tioned for the mythical All-Ohio. Barton H. Graves Bart” Bart” was one of the most willing and steady workers on the team. He played an end and was especially good at going down on punts and in open field tackling. And next fall we expect to see Bart in a football suit again. James H. Greg Jimmy” Although Jimmy did not come out until the third game, he demonstrated his ability in this game, as well as in all others, both on offensive and defensive. Jim’s speed was a great asset, gaining much ground for the Mauve and White, and he was always willing to give everything he had. Edgar B. Read Waldo” Waldo” showed that he possesses the stuff that real football players are made of, even though he is a little light. Eddie played both in the back field and at end and always gave a creditable account of himself. Handicapped by a seriously sprained shoulder practically all season, he only had a chance to show his real worth in the last game; Baldwin-Wallace finally gave up their unsuccessful attempts to get around him. Page ninety-one Page ninety luo Basket-ball W. C. Love. Captain J. L. Snook. Manager HE prospectus of the 1918 basket-ball season was even less encouraging than that of the football season just passed, had been. Until the God Mars intervened. Kenyon had looked forward to the return of the entire stellar team of the previous season, but when the 1918 call for players was issued. Love was the only one of the six veterans to step on to the floor, and around him it was necessary to build The problem of a coach for the season was only solved by burdening the newly elected captain. Love, with these duties. To him belongs much credit and the appreciation of the College. It being impossible to secure a suitable man by reason of the wholesale enlistment of athletes, the Executive Committee invested him with the additional worries and responsibilities of the position. After much experimentation with the candidates at different positions on the team. Captain Love was forced to leave his regular position at guard for the center job. where he played a good, consistent game all season. The other positions were hotly contested, the several men on the squad who pos- sessed little or no knowledge of the game, quickly learning the ropes and pushing the more experienced men for the regular berths. The season opened at Alliance, where Mt. Union gave the Kenyon quintet its first reverse of the season, largely through the uncanny basket-shooting of their center. At Gambier, the following week, however, the highly touted aggregation from Ohio Northern was walloped in a game that was Kenyon’s from start to finish. Immediately after examination week, that Nemesis to Kenyon basket-ball teams. Reserve won by three points in a game that at any other time would have resulted in a Kenyon victory. The two trips the following weeks were not a success from the standpoint of victories, but the games at Miami and Camp Sherman, against teams that played a much supe- rior brand of basket-ball, demonstrated that a Kenyon team will always fight, and fight hard, no matter what be the odds against it. the team. Page ninety-three Cincinnati and Ohio University were disposed of easily on the home floor, and Miami, the state champions, were given the scare of their lives in perhaps the best game played in the state all season. That Kenyon should attack in such a blood-thirsty manner a team that had handed her such an overwhelming defeat but three weeks before, is proof of the team’s caliber. Wooster won the final game of the season on their own floor. That this first war-quintet can be viewed with no small amount of pride, even though victory fluttered less over the side of the mauve than might have been desired, is due entirely to the indominable fight which Captain Love and his men always possessed. Whether twenty points ahead, or as many behind, there was never a lessening of the attack. Any signs of quitting or discouragement, or a deviation from the standards of clean, fair playing which so characterized the team, were never to be seen. That the team played as a real Kenyon team should play is the greatest compliment that can be paid it. THE TEAM Left Forward Right Forward Center....... Right Guard. .

Managing Editor Leland Cecil Gunn............................................jrl Editor HR 1918 Reveille has not taken for its model the standards from which Reveilles of former years have been constructed. Just as the present day demands many things different from those which were demanded before the United States entered into the war against the Hun, so Kenyon demands an Annual which is different from former Annuals in many respects. The 1918 Reveille is believed to have filled, to an extent, at least, the requirements as they appear. In former years a Reveille Board was elected by the Junior class from among its own number, which would take over the responsibilities and prob- lems of editing and financing. But by reason of the small number of men in college, the class as a whole has put its common shoulder to the wheel, and worked together for the common cause. Each man in the class has done some part of the work on the publication. The Junior class is indebted to Doctor Watson and “Chatz” Kinder. ’16, for their literary contributions. To Mr. Jerpe, '20, belongs a great deal of credit and commendation for his work on the advertising. Appreciation is also due to Mr. Harper and Mr. Walton. '20. and to Mr. Olds and Mr. Krejci, '21, for their assistance. Without the kind suggestions and thorough interest in the book, of Mr. Ditzel. the publisher, the work would have been far more difficult, and much that has been attempted, impossible. The policy of the editors has been the construction of a volume that will be, fundamentally, a record of the work and play at Kenvon during the past year. However, this record of the College does not fulfifl its purpose unless it reaches Kenyon’s interested alumni—and most of Kenyon’s alumni are enthusiastically interested. When the mere publication of the book becomes the end and not the means to the end. unless an attempt is made to make these records a part of Kenyon alumni, then the book has not carried out its entire duties. It is this endeavor to reacquaint Kenyon's alumni with the “Hill, to take them back for a little while to the happiest days of their lives, that the builders of the 1918 Reveille have made. And the surest means of preserving an alumnus’ interest is by making him always-a part of his college, giving him a chance to be familiar with the everchanging stream of collegiate activity. And since Kenyon men are ever guided by the same traditions that guided our oldest alumnus, Kenyon men can always understand each other. The usual supply of literary material has been omitted in the construction of the 1918 Reveille, because such was not deemed sufficiently valuable in Kenyon’s first war annual. “Rather let it be a record of Kenvon's year, and a simple monument to her enlisted men. was the sentiment. The many pages of wit and humor, with which practically every college annual abounds, were condensed to one small department, and concentrated. As a whole, the Reveille has been transformed into a book of that more serious type which best expresses the emotions of the men it represents.
