To Our Former Teachers We, the class of ' 26, with due respect, dedi- cate this space to those teachers who, at some time or other, have contributed toward our education at the Seminary, but have not been with us during the past year. Mj II li i II li li II Sixtcn THE 1926 DART 1 - Congratulations, Class of 192,6 You have made some records of which you may well be proud. In scholarship you have established standards which others may well emulate and which will be difficult to surpass. On the athletic field members of your class have helped to achieve notable victories and to restore rightful athletic prestige to the school. In numbers you will doubtless rank first in the history of the school, in loyalty to the school and devotion to its ideals you rank second to none. In your Year Book you have achieved a notable success; in its origin- ality of design, the care given to all details, its richness and variety of con- tent, the financial success of the undertaking and the hearty cooperation secured from the whole school as well as from the members of the class, give it high rank as a class publication and demonstrate that ability and leadership which we expect of Dickinsonians and of which we are justly proud. It has been a pleasure to observe your progress in learning, your grow- ing powers of discrimination, your increasing appreciation of things of real merit, your enlarging capacities of body, mind and soul and your increasing evidences of self mastery. It is my earnest hope that I have been not only an onlooker, however interested, but that I may have had some little share in pointing out what Wlilliam Watson calls in his poem The Things that are More Excellent, and have afforded some stimulus and encouragement to their attainment. After you shall have received your diplomas and left the school to enter directly upon some useful endeavor or to continue your academic training, remember you are still Dickinsonians. Let no later loyalties make less bind- ing your loyalty to your first Alma Mater and no subsequent circle of friends dim the friendships found here. May the true Dickinson Spirit — honor, truth, service — hold you steady and lead you to that worthy goal, the attainment of useful and happy lives, is the wish of Your sincere friend. ■ Seventeen Mi THE 1926 DART 11 ■ ' • ' ' il ll II ll il il il it li ■! ll il li l ' v.

Her winning smile, her charming personality, and her loyal devotion to the class have en- deared her to all. She has contributed very largely toward our success and renown. Sure- ly our fond recollections of Miss Kapp and the happy days spent under her enlightening guidance will never fade from memory ' s page. Twenty - mMM THE 1926 DART Vincent Amicarelli Agone, Italy ' •Mickei ' - Knowledge comes, hut wisdom lingers. Kappa Delta Pi 4; Belles Lettres, 2- 3-4,- Y. M. C. A. 2-3-4; Treasurer 3; Assistant Secretary 4; Dramatic Class 3-4,- In Walked Jimmy 4; Choral Club 2-3-4; Track Squad 2; College Prep; Ohio Wesleyan. These isn ' t much that Mickey can ' t do, or doesn ' t know. He ' s always on hand and always right there with the information needed. Helen Elathea Allender Helen A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance. Williamsburg, Pa. Williamsburg High School Tripartite 4; Choral Club 4; } ' . W. C. .4. 4; Orchestra 4; College Prep. Williamsburg contributed Helen and a right good gift it was for her cheerful ways have endeared her to everyone. Charles Bailey Froggie That Bailey boy sli igs the most serious line. Philipsburg, Pa. Kappa Delta Pi; Belles Lettres; Foot- ball Sqjiad; Baseball 4; Basketball 4; In Walked Jimmy ; College Prep; University of Illinois. If you hear a wee sma ' voice issu- ing from the sixth hall you can be pretty sure it ' s Froggy. This boy lately underwent the sad bereavement of losing his sheba, and he only ap- pears happy when he gets that letter from Maryland. Sara Bailey Bailey For e ' en tho ' vanquished she could argue still. Morrisdale, Pa. Morrisdale High School Choral 4; Dramatic Class 4; In Walked Jimmy ; Vice-Vrrsident Girls Athletic Association 4; Tripar- tite; Toast — Greater Dicki}isoH Ban- quet 4; Dart Board; College Prep.; Ann Arbor. Kid is always cheerful Never blue is she, For some are glad, but sometimes sad, Kid ' s always full of glee. Twenty-two mM - ' - - ' - - ' - 1 Courtney C. Baird Let me have aboxt me men that are fat. Avis, Pa. Avis High School. Theta Pi Pi; Belief; Lettres 3-4,- Foot- ball 3-4; Baseball 3-4; Class Bas- ketball 3; College Prep. The angel factory produces many angelic creatures, not the least of whom is Courtney. He ' s a quiet boy though he does have hard luck in baseball. Pearl Marie Baker There ' s joy in street music. Muncy, Pa. Muncy High School Music Course. We have never become acquainted with this young lady, as she is at school so seldomly, but we know her ability as a pianist. Raymond E. Best Best Rare compound of oddity, frolic and fun. To relish a joke and rejoice in fun. Middletown, Pa. Middletown High School Kappa Delta Pi 4; Belles Lettres 4; Football 4; Basketball 4; Baseball 4; Unholy Three. One of the six hallers and a loyal member of the A, B. Club. Best has a smile and a gold tooth ; both of which add to his popularity. Oliver Behm Behm Such a I ' ll fellow. Hershey, Pa. Hershey High School Theta Pi Pi 4; Belles Lettres 4; Leopard Club 4; College Prep; Dicki ison College. Dutch and noisy is this little boy who goes around the halls so quietly. Behm and Tiny are the world ' s ideal roommates and to see them play together upon Fifth Hall is a fearful and wonderful sight. tu ' wenty-three George Franklin Boggs, Jr. Boggsij If he be not in love irith some wo- man, there is no believing old signs. Renovo, Pa. Milton High SchopJ Theta Pi Pi; Belles Lettres 4; Chainnan Dramatic Club 4; Choral Club 4; Senior Class Play Commit- tee; Union Board 4; Dart Board; An Easy Mark ; College Prep; Cornell. There ' s no one in school who can handle the English lang-uage like Boggsy. And whatever career he may choose to follow, we ' re sure we ' ll see him in the Hall of Fame — or at least in Who ' s Who. Charles Brewer Charley Has it come to this? Rahway, N. .J. Rahway High School Belles Lettres 3-4; Dickinson Union Prize 3; College Prep; Dickinson College. Charley is the original wise cracker. He always has a new one to spring. It ' s rumored that he takes a decided interest in the fair sex and he breaks hearts with cruel abandon. Frances Bubb Bubby It ' s not what you know; it ' s what you get away with. Williamsport, Pa. Secretary of Senior Class; College Prep; Smith. Bubby ' s your best companion for an idle hour, for she always knows all the dope about every one, or if she doesn ' t know, she soon will. William C. Cadle Bill The world knows nothing of its greatest men. Williamsburg, Pa. Williamsburg High School Gamma Epsilon A; College Prep; Dickinson College. Bill is a quiet boy and proves the old adage that still waters run deep, for have you ever seen him tickle a typewriter? He leads his class in speed tests. Twenty-four mn Y ? Paul Cassidy Con Newberry, Pa. The hero is not fed on sweets. Williamsport High School Theta Pi Pi 4; Dart Board; Football 4; Class Basketball 4. Here we have one of the Three Musketeers hailing fi ' om Newberry, Con ' s rather quiet, but very well liked. It must be that the right girl just hasn ' t happened along yet, but it ' s all right, Con — The longer they wait, the harder they fall. Foster A. Charlton Tiny Carlisle, Pa. Like two gentlemen rolled into one. Carlisle High School Theta Pi Pi; Belles Lettres 4; Dart Board; Dramatic Class 4; Orches- tra 4; An Easy Mark ; Senior Class Play Committee ; College Prep; Dickinson College. Fashioned so slenderly, Young and so fair. Tiny is the boy with the big, broad smile and his two accomplish- ments are, playing the sax, and Char- lestoning, which he does with vim and vigor. Marjorie Elizabeth Coates Marj I think that ' s dahling! New London, Conn. Y. W. C. A. 4; Tripartite 4; Dramatic Class 4; An Easy Mark, and In Walked Jimmy 4; English Course; Boston School of Domestic Science. If you should be aimlessly wan- dering through the hall and you see a petite young creature approaching with a coldly aopraising look on her face, and a shock of decidedly up and standing curls on her head you have been glanced at by Marjorie. Milton B. Crist His ready speech flowed fair and free. Baltimore, Md. Kappa Delta Pi; Pres. Senior Class; Chin. Greater Dickinson Ban. 3; Bel- les Lettres Pres. 3-4; Hymn Reading 4: Bible Reading 3-4; De Wart Scholarship; A. A. 2-3-4; Vice-Pres- 3; Dramatics 1-2-3; Pres. Student Body 4; The Dust of the Earth ; In Walked Jimmy ; Union Story Prize 3; American University; Min- isteri il. Talking is something Crist doesn ' t do nothin ' else but, for like the brook he goes on forever. No one has a chance at Dr. Haas ' prize for cheer- fulness, with Crist around. Mr. Crist, You ' re just handsome when you smile like that! Twenty-five Reba Blanche Decker Born for success she seems, with firace to win, with heart to hold, with shining gifts that take all eyes. South Williamsport, Pa. Rich Prize 1 ; College Prep; Smith. Ever see Reba when she wasn ' t talking to Gummy? Neither did we. Between times she must study, for she ' s always on A ' honors, but she ' s always ready for a little fun. Frank Derk Hard Coal Let your conscience be your guide. Trevorton, Pa. Trevorton High School Kappa Delta Pi; In Walked Jiinmi 4; Belles Lettres 4; A. B. Club 4; Dart Board; Unholy Three ; Football Squad 4; College Prep. This mysterious A. B. Club seems to be inspired by Derk and his spon- taneous good snirits were unexcelled until he decided to quiet down and stay around the campus a bit more. — Derk — the man with the wicked eyes! Dorothy Louise Edler Dottie Lou That voice heard so oft. Williamsport, Pa. Commercial Course; Dre.rel Institute. Dot shines in the Commercial Department, but her sunny smiles and disposition are felt all over the school. It is said she is one of Mrs. Allen ' s stars. Anna K. Egan Ann And still they gazed, and still the wonder grew. That one small head could carry all she knew. Harrisburg, Pa. y. W. C. A. 4; Dramatic Class 4; Tripartite 4; Dart Board; Choral Club 4; Union Board 4; Senior Class Play Committee; Prizes — Spelling Contest, Bible Reading Contest ; College Prep. Here is the lady who writes the best themes, does the best work and knows the most about everything. In spite of her manv activities she al- ways has time for a cheery word for everyone. I i: ' ' : ' I IJ A ll iJI IIJUL _1I. ll-JI -L ' . Twenty-six James N. Elliott Jim A fellow of infinite jest, of most ex- cellent fancy. Baltimore, Md. MacDonough Military Academy (1st Lieutenant) Theta Pi Pi; Belles Lettres 3-4; Junior Union Board; Class Foot- ball 3; Class Basketball 3; Class Baseball 3; Cheer Leader 3-4; Col- lege Prep. Jim can ' t be beat as a cheer lead- er! And for pure pep he ' s also fore- most. Of course, Jim isn ' t here as much as we ' d like, but we know his affiliations in town occupy a bit of time ! Nancy Jane Ferguson Nance Nothing great ivas ever achieved without enthusiasm. Williamsport, Pa. Williamsport High School Choral Club 4; Dramatic Club 4; Tri- partite 4; Class Basketball 4; i ' . W. C. A. 4; College Prep; Syracuse. Nan ' s a friend of everyone for everyone tells her their plans and troubles and gets expert advice in re- turn. She ' s the jolliest of playmates, too, and as she ' s going to Syracuse next year we wish her the greatest luck, happiness and success. Louis Garcia, Jr. Macgui Love always makes titose eloquent that have it. Fajardo, Porto Rico Tome School Gamma Epsilon 4; Track Squad 4; College Prep; University of Penn- sylvania. Luie, the sheik of Porto Rico, has smiled his way into the good graces of all the students as well as faculty and if he ' s an example of Porto Rico we hope we can have a trip soon. George Albert Gehron Make your stride a steady one. Williamsport, Pa. Williamsport High School Dart Board; College Prep. Some of you pessimists have George to thank for the nice things he ' s at- tributed to you in the Class Will and Prophecy. Thank you, George, for all your trouble and work ! Twenty-seven --r fzt Francis R. Geigle Bud I love — Oh, how I love. Tievorton High School Class Treasurer 3-4; Kappa Delta Pi 3-4; Belles Lettres 4; Union Board, Assistant Editor 4; A. B. Club 4; Senior Banquet Committee 4; Greater Dickinson Banquet Toast 4; Senior Play Committee; Varsity Football 4; Football Sqiiad 3; Bas- ketball 3-4; Track 3-4; Miss Some- body Else ; In Walked Jimmy Commercial Course. To Bud belongs some of the credit for the noisy nights of sixth hall. For when he isn ' t quiet writing letters home (and elsewhere) he ' s preparing to be a successful teacher to the young mind. — Right? Bud! Robert Edwin Gibson Bob But sucli as are yood men can give good things. Cassville, Pa. Belles Lettres 2-3-4; Choral Club 3; Orchestra 4; Class Football 4; Track Manager 4; Track Squad 3; College Prep; Dickinson College. Robert would be sought after if he didn ' t bring the mail but that act sim- ply endears him to the girls and makes him more valuable to the boys. We appreciate his faithful work all through the year. Newton Griffiths Newt No man at one time can be wise and love. Girardville, Pa.

Red Grange has lived the life of Riley but his living days were short — He ' s recuperating now and takes his daily constitutional around the cam- pus with his partners. Helen Mae Hand Helen Full many a flower is born unseen. Pine Grove, Pa. Tremont Township High School Y. W. C. A. 3-4; Tripartite 3-4; Class Basketball 4; Class Baseball 3; Col- lege Prep; Syracuse University. She ' ll never take the prize as the noisiest member of the school but her helpful presence is always felt. So, hats off to Helen! Trventy-eight Millard C. Hayes Bye Love, honor, and be gay. Wayland, N. Y. Wayland High School Kappa Delta Pi; Varxity Football 3-4,- Track 3-4; C oss Baseball 3; Dart Boa I ' d; College Pi-ep; Penn State. Bye ' is in school it ' s true but we feel his thot ' s are westward. Rinkie may not recognize her boy friend if he wears these disguises he ' s been sporting around the campus lately ! George R. Huston Feet Be . ' iilent or let thy words be worth more than silence. Seaford, Del. Seaford High School Kappa Delta Pi 4- Belles Lettres 4; Football Squad 4; Baseball 4; Class Ba. ' ketball 4; College Prep; Buck- nell University. He ' s quiet but he ' s all there and as lots of nopular eople come from Del- aware we ' re not surprised at his suc- cess at Dickinson. We don ' t know him well but we hear he ' s full of wit when he ' s once started. WiLMA Louise Huntley Billy Oh, that this too, too solid flesh u ' oitld melt. Covington, Pa. Covington High School Y. W. C. A. 4; Tripartite 4; Choral Kappa Delta Pi; Belles Lettres 4; 4; Dra)iiatic Class 4; College Prep); Randolph Macon College. Here is Winsome Wilma — the ex- ponent of all Southern graces and charms. She ' s the best friend you could want and don ' t you love her soft Southern voice? If you need anything else to be convinced of her superiority, ask any of the Fourth Hall Annex girls. They ' re always ready to sing her nraises. Mary Margaret Kauffman A fair e.fterior is a silent recom- mendation. Mifflintown, Pa. Mifflintown High School Y. W. C. A. 4; Tripartite 4; Choral Club 4; College Prep; Hood College. A petite stature, a perfect complex- ion, curly brown hair, pearly teeth — doesn ' t she sound like a magazine cover? She ' s very much flesh and blood though, and lots of fun as any of our swains could tell. Twenty -nine THE 192 6 D AR Emma Medford Leo Emmy Lou Never do today lohat yov cnii put off ' til tomorroir. Philadelphia, Pa. Gerniantown High School Y. W. C. A. 4; Tripartite 4; Choral Club 4; Dart Board; Dramatie Class 4,- Varsity Basketball; Col- lege Prep; Ursinus Collef e. Tall — Athletic — Curly brown hair Here is Leo, fresh and fair, A hearty laugh, a ready grin. Name a sport and she ' ll be in. Jean Mahoney Jean I sing of amis and a man. Philadelphia, Pa. Dean Academy Y. W. C. A.; Tripartite 4; Dramatic Class A; Greater Dickinson Ban- quet Cominittee 4; The Tri stinr Place ; Commercial. This competent young woman spends most of her time at the tele- phone conversing over the long dis- tance with her mother (?) .Jean is a big help when it comes to commit- tees and old lady ' s parts in plays and it ' s mighty fine to have her among us. Elizabeth Crooks Maitland Je7 ry I am to be married within three days; married past redemption. South Williamsport, Pa. College Prep; Swarthmore. .Jerry is rarely seen without Bubby , and both of them are seen around school. Jerry is often here in spirit only when her thoughts are with Jack. Edgar Manherz Ed I see the right and I approve it too. Waynesboi-o, Pa. Gamma Epsilon, Treasurer 4; Choral Club 4,- Dart Board; Chairman Commencement Invitation Commit- tee 4; Y. M. C. A. 4; Track Squad 4; College Prep Course; American Ihiiversity. Quiet but cagey! You don ' t hear him, but if you take a look up you may see him climbing among the raft- ers! Ed can certainly give a mean exhibition of the dolphin and the can- non-ball. He was very indispensable at the Dickinson Banquet and exer- cised his climbing ability then. i i. II (• .1 .. i! ii li ii Thirty 1 Margaret Ann Mansel Peg Williamsport, Pa. But still her tongue ran on, the less of weight it bore, with greater ease. Waycrosse ' Ga.) High School Junior Union Board; College Prep; Piatt Institute. Peg has the most infectious laugh to be found in school, and she has it almost continually. When she isn ' t engaged in school and numerous out- side activities, her thoughts are in the Dear Old Southland. Leslie C. McClain Les Robertsdale, Pa. The windy satisfaction of the tongue.

Thirty-nine Forty TT :3 ii TI n j JLi Jiinior Class Officers Foster Pannebaker President Mitchell Hammond ' ice President Miss Fllmino Advisor Alyce Crago Secretary George Hohensheldt Treasurer Forty-one v THE 1926 DART Junior Class History IN THE early fall of 1925, October the ninth, a meeting of the Juniors was called. Milton Crist, the president of our superiors, the Seniors, presided over the meeting. It was at this time that Foster Pannebaker was elected president of our class, Mitchell Hammond, vice-president, George Hohensheldt, treasurer, and Alyce Crago, secretary. At a later meet- ing called by our own president. Maroon and Gray were chosen for the class colors. Miss Fleming was elected class advisor. As a class, our first victory was gained on the football field. On the eighth of December the invincible Juniors met the proud and haughty Sen- iors on the gridiron to decide the class championship. After a well fought battle the outcome favored the Juniors with a score of 13 to 3. Likewise, later on, the Juniors proved themselves victorious on the basketball fioor, after a series of games had been played. But we must not forget to tell what the Junior girls did for the honor of their class. The Junior girls ' basketball team was not defeated during the entire season. The Junior class began its social activities by giving a banquet to the Seniors on their return from their Sleigh Ride. Our president, Foster Panne- baker, competently filled the position of toastmaster. Several members of the faculty and student body delivered short speeches, including Miss Kapp, the Senior class advisor, and Milton Crist, president of the Senior class. Our class launched a new plan in regards to the Junior sleigh ride. For the first time in the history of the institutional sleigh rides, the Juniors spent an entire day on their outing, due to the fact that Saturday was chosen for the event in preference to the customary afternoon of a school day. So on the first fair Saturday, February 20, we set out for the Evergreen Tea Room, with the highest expectations for a good time. Our chaps, Miss Van Dyke, Miss Cunningham, Miss Fleming and Prof. Markle proved them- selves to be such good sports that we should like to have them with us on our Senior sleigh ride. There was a perfect ending to our wonderful day. A banquet, given to us by the Seniors, awaited our return. You may be sure we did full justice to the elaborate repast, even though we had eaten only a few hours before. Dr. Long delivered the main address of the evening, after which a number responded with toasts. About the first of March a meeting was called by our president at which the staff for the Junior Union Board was chosen. Joe Bechdel was elected as Editor-in-Chief and a very efficient staff to assist him was also chosen. Further events are yet to be recorded in which we will aim to uphold the standards of the Class of ' 27. Forty-two Forty-four m FRV5h 3Wh Sophomore and Freshmen History UPPER-CLASSMEN, consider with great regard the achievements al- ready credited to worthy representatives of the classes of ' 28 and ' 29. Surely we have followed the fine example which you have set for us; thus, you may be proud for we will help to a high degree to form the Dickinson in the Future. That work which you have performed with so much diligence and success, we hope to equal or, if possible, surpass. We have worthy members of our class on the Football field, on the Diamond and on the Track. We are proud to have produced next year ' s manager, Johnson, from our group. We are indeed proud of Good, our lone representative on the Varsity Football team, also one of the Varsity Basket- ball quintet. Our class was also represented at the Thanksgiving Day Ban- quet by Miss Mary Bryan. We are but starting in our march to the goal but we have made a cred- itable beginning. Although it is considered impossible to foretell what the future contains, we cannot help but feel our course will be brightened by the success of our members. For the honor of Dickinson, for the honor of our class, we shall forge ahead with our best ability in anticipation of that day which marks the climax of the history of the classes of ' 28 and ' 29. Forty-five 3 E y?o .ev 1 Hnt Hlm Dedication In recognition of the physical endurance, the mental bravery, and the school spirit, which enabled Dickinson Seminary to defeat Wyoming on the gridiron, we, the Class of nineteen hundred twenty-six, dedicate this section of the Dart to that noble team. Forty-eight !■ -T ffl THE 1926 DART Football Summary WHEN the student body of Dickinson Seminary arrived at school early in September, they found that a squad of some thirty grid- iron warriors were already hard at work under the direction of Coach Swartz. There was a wealth of fine material and prospects for another wonderful season like that of ' 24 were brilliant. In fact, the squad and stu- dent body were very confident of a wonder team. Our first game was with the Altoona Apprentice School eleven. This husky crowd of railroaders handed the Gold and White gridders a stunning defeat by the score of 2 to 0. Sem entered the game very confident of a victory, for the visitors had been forecasted as easy picking. We were greatly subjugated by this setback, but our hopes did not die. The following week our team traveled to Mercersburg. In an unnec- essarily rough game, in which several of our players were severely injured, we were defeated 42 to 0. But we were not disgraced by any means. It seemed that all of our long gains, which on two occasions meant touch- downs, were declared null and void by the officials for various reasons which the spectators were unable to understand. There was much rough playing and consequently many disputations which resulted in a very unsatisfactory e.xhibition of football. The next Saturday, the Dickinson College Reserves held a patched up Gold and White eleven, due to injuries received at Mercersburg, to a score- less tie in a hard game on our field. Next, our boys traveled to Ithaca, N. Y. to meet the Cornell Freshmen, a team of veritable giants. In a clean hard fought game the Ithacans triumphed 23 to 0. This series of defeats somewhat dampened our spirit but there was a firm resolve to win the next game which was with Mansfield Normal School. True enough our boys proved themselves to be regular Seminary Ducks since they played in a heavy rain, and on a field that was a puddle of water. Nevertheless they handed Mansfield a 32 to 6 setback. This victory started us off at last. In four inches of snow the Gang trounced Keystone Acad- emy at Factoryville by the score of 9 to 0. The feature of the game was a thirty-yard field goal by Bye Hayes. The following Saturday our boys were idle. They were waiting for our old rival Wyoming and no game was scheduled so that no one might be acci- dently injured. We would have to show our strongest to the Kingston boys. Then came the day of days, November 14, 1925. It was a great day for football. The sun shone brightly, and it was neither too warm nor too cold. Wyoming ' s big blue and white team arrived that morning. They were picked as easy winners by everybody but the Seminary students. We seemed to feel somehow th at we were going to Beat Wyoming. On paper the Fifty a TME 1926 DART it visitors were far superior; they were undefeated and their goal line had been crossed but once. Before a large crowd, which jammed both sides of the field on that day. occurred one of the greatest and hardest fought of gridiron battles. In the first quarter, the visitors lost their only real chance to score. They had made a long march down the field by terrific line bucking and placed the ball on the 15-yard line. Here the Gold and White line turned to a wall of stone. Three times the Blue and White backs were stopped without gain. On the final down the visitors tried a forward pass. It was accurately thrown tut the visiting end let the ball slip through his waiting arms and Wyoming ' s one and only threat failed. Wyoming gained a lot of ground in the second quarter but they were unable to seriously threaten the Sem ' s goal line. During this quarter Granny Nye made the longest punt ever seen on this field, from near his own goal line over the opponent ' s goal line, 85 yards in all. The half ended with a score to 0. Then came the great third quarter. About the middle of this period Dickinson held Wyoming for downs near the center of the field. The visitors punted and the punt fell into the waiting arms of Bye , then on the 25-yard line. Then, behind a marvelous inter- ference along with his own ability as a broken field runner, he zig-zagged his way 75 yards for a touchdown, amid the cheers of joy from the mad throng. He kicked the goal for the point, making the score 7 to as it remained. The last quarter as hard fought, Wyoming vainly endeavoring to score by the use of passes, but it was not their day, and at the end of the game they walked off the field with tears in their eyes. True, they were defeated but they went down fighting and they deserve great crdit for their fine playing. On Thanksgiving Day, Perkiomen invaded our lair. The Gold and White with Jew Good bearing the brunt of the attack pounded out a 13 to victory over the visitors. Good scored both touchdowns mainly by his fine individual ability. On one occasion he caught a forward pass and hop- ped, skipped and jumped his way to the goal line. His other touchdown came after a dash off tackle. So ended our season. The scrub team with Newt Griffiths, performing like Red Grange scored two victories over St. Joe ' s Catholic High by the scores of 21 to and 39 to 0. Results of the Season : D.

' i!:i ' .i;jjij.iai-.j- bb zrii s ,,, , ■5 rfi Fifty-two Our Football Team FROM away up in New York, from a town known as Wayland, came our captain of the football season that has just passed. Millard (Bye) Hayes proved a very capable leader for our successful aggregation. Bye rose to great heights, indeed, when he scored the lone touchdown and afterwards kicked the goal, which beat our traditional rivals, Wyoming. Great things are expected of you in college, Bye and good luck to you. Flanking Bye at halfback was Jew Good of Williamsport High School. He proved a running mate par excellence for Hayes. In fact these two formed the nucleus for the team. Jew starred in every game he got into but he attained his greatest perfection in the Perkiomen game when he scored both of our touchdowns. There is no need of us worrying over the future of Jew Good in athletics, he ' ll get there. Backing up this pair at fullback we have the one and only incompar- able Granny Nye. Will anybody who saw the last Wyoming game ever forget his wonderful punting or his equally wonderful defensive work in that game? Football fans are wondering if the Seminary will ever have an- other fullback quite like Granny. At quarterback, Dick Hohensheldt proved to be the brains of the back- field combination. Dick alternated between quarterback and tackle. He is a capable defensive man and a good quarterback. Everyone will be glad to hear that Dick expects to return next year. When Dick was playing tackle, little Jimmie Swift-foot Geigle was at the signal calling post. Bud played a big man ' s game despite his little boy ' s size. Geigle showed us his real worth in the Mansfield Normal game. His chief delight was in spilling men three times his size by breath-taking, shoe-string tackles. Best of luck to Bud in his future course of action. Hailing from Girardville we have the famous Griffiths ' brothers, Newt and Jim. Jim starred all year at guard. The gains that were made through this minature Goliath were few, while opening holes for the backfield was just pastime for him. We all know that Hime will make good both in sports and studies when he gets to college. Brother Newt played an excellent wing game for the team all year. Considering that he only weighs as much as a pound of nails, we must say that Newt does his stuff when it comes to playing end. He acquired his nickname of Red due to his likeness of the famous red-head of Illinois. On the other end we had the famous neck-twister Raymond E. Best, otherwise known as Besty . He came to us after the first two games were played but easily earned his letter in the games that followed. Best ' s sterling defensive work was a pretty sight to see. Another regular end to whom great credit is due is Johnny Lindemuth. John was never fiashy but al- Fifty-three 1 S THE 1926 DART ' a ways a steady, dependable end. A fast run and a deadly tackle are two of his strongest points. Good luck to Johnny in the future. At tackle, we had another Newberry star in the person of Con Cas- sidy. Con played a nice defensive game at all times and was apt in open- ing holes for the offensiv-e. Con will make good in college both athletically and scholastically. The tackle on the other end was little Artha Flannigan, the Mill Hall flashy player. Hoot first learned football in the Lock Haven high school and under the further direction of Coach Cardy Swartz, he developed into a mighty fine tackle. Hoot is one oF those fellows who can give a mean look on the football field and has t!ie goods to back up that look. Joe Bechdel, at guard, was always a tower of strength to our line. He was to our line what the great Chinese wall is to China. Best evidence of Joe ' s work can be gleaned from the fact that the letter men have selected him to be their leader for next year. May all success bs yours, Joe. On the other guard was Todhunter. Tod is a fighter from the word, go. His work is in evidence at all times when he is in the game. It was Tod ' s fine interference in the Wyoming game to whx ' i Hayes ' touc ' ndown was largely responsible. Not many people saw this piece of work due to the ex- treme excitement, but all due credit must be given to him. Thanks a lot Tod. In case you don ' t know who that little fire-eater was at center, we ' ll tell you that it was Earl Z. McKay, lately known as Isaac . Mac proved to be a bear at the pivot position. A man of his stature must present a ter- rific amount of fight in order to hold his own against the odds our team en- countered this year. Mac has this in him as most of our opponents will testify. May things come your way, Mac. Athletic Association The Athletic Association of Dickinson Seminary has completed the third successful year of its existence. It was organized in the beginning of the 1923 term and has shown increasing improvement with each year. The association conducts the election of all managers and governs the awarding of letters. It also helps to advance the cause of athletics and to maintain school spirit. Every student in the school is a member of this association and should show the proper spirit by trying to advance the cause of the association. OFFICERS George R. McCahan President E.

Our team was handicapped by the absence of a star guard, Jew Good. In spite of this disadvantage, we defeated our opponents by a score of 21 to 17. The game pointed out bright prospects for the coming season. On January 29, 1926, Bucknell Frosh journeyed to the Seminary and a fast game was staged which kept the spectator on his feet nearly all through the game. The score at the half was 13-16. This indicated that it would be a hard struggle for the rest of the evening. Our team was dazzled by the tall and fast moving team from the University and were finally de- feated by the score 37-20. We visited Mansfield on January 30. 1926, and met their team led by Captain Brace. His shooting featured the game, and he was the main cause of the Seminary ' s defeat. Seminary went into the winning column when they met Bloomsburg on February 5, and defeated them without much difficulty. The next week, Wilkes-Barre Business College also met their Waterloo. The first game with our ancient rivals, Wyoming, played at Kingston, resulted in a victory for Wyoming. Hrisko was Wyoming ' s high-scorer and he very effectively led the attack against our team. The next two games, the first with Bloomsburg and the second with Mansfield, resulted in defeats for the School Upon the Hill-Top. Seminary appeared to have fallen in a slump and was unable to play winning bas- ketball. On March 6th, Coach Swartz took his court luminaries to Wilkes-Barre and there administered the second defeat to the Wilkes-Barre Business College. The final and most exciting game of the year was played on March 13th with Wyoming Seminary on our own floor. The teams were evenly matched throughout and the contest was not decided until Donchess caged a two- pointer in the last five seconds of the play. Tempus Fugit! Before Semi- nary could retaliate, the referee ' s whistle blew which ended the game. Fifty-six The T ,a 111 WHEN Coach Cardy Swartz sounded the call for basketball, about sixteen candidates put in their appearance. After the first week ' s practice it was evident that there would be a fight for every posi- tion on the team as the men were nearly all of equal ability. Consequently, there were many substitutions made in every game and a grand total of nine men made their letters. The centers who earned their letters were Raymond Best, a big, rangy boy from the sticks who will make good any place with some experience, and Bye Hayes, who proved to be a capable man at the pivot position. Alhtough heavily built, Hayes could out-jump any man on the squad. The forwards who earned their letters were Froggy Bailey, Newt Griffiths, Bud Geigle, and Jew McKay. Bailey, the Philipsburg High School flash, was a consistent player, being the sharpest shot on the squad. Newt Griffiths, the plumber of Girardville, was a much improved player over former years. Give Newt another year and then watch him go. Little Bud Geigle, Trevorton coal miner, played a flashy game at all per- iods. Although of small stature Bud showed up best when the going was rough. Jew McKay, who first shone as a luminary of Harrisburg Tech basketball, caged baskets in all games, on all floors, and from any angle. He is a versatile cage man. The guards were Jew Good, Granny Nye, and Dick Hohensheldt. No one who watched the games during the year will forget Jew Good ' s marvelous dribbling. A player of much experience, Jew proved to be the axis on which the team revolved. Granny Nye and consistency seem to be synonymous. He was always giving his best for the school and much credit is due him. Dick Hohensheldt, who first saw the light of basket- ball last year, proved to be a capable guard. A little more experience and Dick will be an outstanding cage star. The summary of the games is as follows: Opponents Played Seminary Opponents Stroehmann Kew-Bee Home 21 17 Bucknell Frosh Home 20 37 Mansfield Normal Away 12 17 Bloomsburg Normal Home 35 27 Wilkes-Barre Business Cc liege Home 34 21 Wyoming Seminary Away 30 43 Bloomsburg Normal Away 7 16 Mansfield Normal Home 25 34 Wilkes-Barre Business C allege Away 43 23 Wyoming Seminary Home 21 23 Fifty-seven Fiftjj ' eight s Iiiinior School Basketball THE Junior Basketball team of the Seminary has been by far the most successful team thus far this year, losing but one game in a total of ten. The team which was responsible for this defeat was from the Roose- velt School, whose boys were older and consequently larger and more ex- perienced. All the other teams that the Juniors played during the season were by far outclassed. Emery school held them to a 10-5 score but the score does not tell the relative merits of the team. The team was at its best the night they played the preliminary game before the varsity lined up against Wyoming. These boys of ours practiced any time they could have the noor and they usually played their games after the girls ' gym practice. Interest was shown in the group of youngsters by a large part of the student body who turned out each week to see them play. Seminary can look for ward to a championship team in five years if all of the boys stay in school here and continue to show improvement as they have in the last year. Coach Swartz is to be commended on the interest he has taken in this team and the improvement in their playing. Fifty-nine pr ' . %u Mt, i y I . : I. BASEBALL prospects this year are as bright as usual. About twenty men reported to Coach Swartz to try out for the Gold and White nine. Games are to be played with Mansfield Normal, Bloomsburg Normal, Wyoming Seminary, our old rival, and also with Montgomery High School. Cold, windy weather hindered the progress of practice somewhat but the team and student body are hoping for a successful season in spite of these drawbacks. The squad consists of several veterans, and many promising new men, some of whom have had previous experience on the diamond, under the colors of other schools. For catchers we have Dick Todhunter, a veteran of last year ' s team. Bowen, a new man, is also trying out for this position. Baird is a first string catcher, also a first baseman. He is a heavy hitter and one of the best men on the squad. Sixty Cuddy, Winegardner, Evans, and Smith are the pitching staff and look good. Nye and Huston, the former a last year ' s man, and the latter a product of Seaford,, Delaware, High School, are a pair of fine first basemen. Hohensheldt and Hunt are holding it down at second base, while Bailey is a fine third baseman and also a heavy hitter. In the short stop position are N. Griffiths and Rich, both hard fighters. In the outfield are Best, Briscoe, Shearer, Humphrey, Russel, and Winegardner. Best, Shearer, Russel and Winegardner form a fine bathing outfit, all being players of former experience. With this collection, the Coach has the material for a fast nine that should prove its mettle for the Gold and White. Track Prospectus AFTER the grand and glorious Easter vacation was all over, Coach Cornwell called all track candidates together and told them his plans for the coming season. He has arranged an attractive schedule, larger and better than it has been for some years. Four meets will be staged this year. The first to be held here at the Seminary with Coudersport High School, who placed fifth at State last year, while Sem- inary placed seventh. The second meet, in which our boys participate, is the Interscholastic Meet at Statg. We finished sixth last year and were keenly disappointed but we hope to do much better this year. The next meet in line is the tri-school meet; Bloomsburg, Wyoming, and Seminary at Bloomsburg. The week following we will try to conquer the strong Bucknell Frosh team, this meet should be very interesting. Finally on Monday, May 31, we go to Dickinson College for the annual Scholastics there. We hope to hear of more records being broken by our school at the Methodist Institution. The team this year will be built around Hayes, who start in the pole- vault, shot-put, discus, and the sprints. He is a veritable track team rolled Sixty-one THE 1926 DART into one. Joe Bechdel and Himmie Griffiths will ably assist Hayes with the weights. Himmie, besides being a good discus thrower is also a hurdler of no mean ability. Other hurdlers who look promising to Coach Cornwell are Geigle and Poulson. Johnny Lindemuth looks good to all as a sprinter and quarter-miler. He has already established quite a rep at Williamsport High School, so great things are expected of him. The coach has an abundance of halt ' -milers and milers, of these, McClain. Man- herz, Joseph, Hartman, Taylor and Larrabee look good. Joseph, the boy from Java, looks good to the coaches in the mile and half-mile. He also ex- pects to do some pole-vaulting. Quarter-milers intent on making good are Crist, Whitaker, Willard, Myers, and Johnson. All in all, the coach has a well-balanced group of candidates for the coming season, and if they all live up to his expectations, we can expect a successful track season. Sixty-two YA OA Y, M, C A. SEPTEMBER 15, 1925, when the Old Tower Bell spoke forth again the command Go to your rooms, the Y. M. C. A. realized that a great responsibility rested upon their shoulders. The cabinet held its first meeting Thursday evening, September 18, at which time arrangements were made for the reception to the student body. The president of the Y spoke to the new students Wednesday afternoon. He explained some of the cus- toms and rules of the school to which all students were asked to adhere. This proved helpful to the new students in preparing them for the discipline of the school. In keeping with the schedule of the school, the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. reception was held Friday evening, September 19th. Bradley Hall be- came the center of activity for the evening. This gathering served as a get acquainted party. Many acquaintances, made that evening, developed into real comradeships through the school year. Other social events which the Y. M. C. A. helped to sponsor, were the Hallowe ' en Party and the Valentine Social. At both events an enjoyable time was spent by all. Games were played during the evening and at the close, refreshments were served in keeping with the occasion. The religious work in the school consisted of weekly meetings held in the Y. M. C. A. room, at which time the Y president or other interested Sixty-three ' ( ' students served as leaders. The first of the meetings was addressed by the ' school President, Dr. Long. The height of the religious activities in the I school was during the Week of Prayer. The Y Cabinet and the student t body were greatly inspired by the chapel talks and the personal interviews given by Dr. Haas, of the Philadelphia Conference. This man of God re- ' vealed to us some of the real essentials of the Christian life. He has so won a place in the hearts of the students and of the members of the cabinet, that whenever his face appears in the chapel, shouts of joy go out to greet him. May he continue to come to us and inspire us in this great life. The workout in the town is carried on by the secretaries of the Y . Three regular appointments, which are at the Colored Home, the Home of the Friendless, and the Limestone M. E. Church, keep these members of our cabinet busy throughout the entire year. They are either in charge themselves or send out other students who are willing to share in the work. All three of these points serve as training grounds for the ministerial stu- dents of our school. This year closes with joy in the hearts of all and yet we feel that the year might have been a better one for Christ. We feel that much good was accomplished for which we are thankful and as we leave and hand the bur- dens to others, we pray that the blessings of God be with them in keeping alive the Christian organizations of the school. Y. W. C. A. THE girls of Dickinson Seminary during 1925-26 found the Y. W. C. A. a source of inspiration and help in developing a life on the plan of the blue triangle — giving attention to the training and culture of Spirit, Health and Knowledge. At our Recognition Service on October 25, 1925, Miss Herrington gave us a very inspiring message, representing t he four candles of Spirit, Ser- vice, Health and Knowledge. To light the candles of our lives at these four great candles, will be to illuminate our lives with the Light of the World. This Recognition Service marked the beginning of a very successful year for the organization. We feel entirely safe in saying that there is not a single girl who was not interested and who did not take some active part in the devotional meetings of the Y. W. which were held on Sunday evenings. Much of this interest and enthusiasm can be accredited to a contest which was conducted for ten weeks before Easter vacation. During this contest, every member was eager to do all that she was possible to do to Sixty-four VV OA make the meetings better and more interesting. The contest closed with a Backwards Party given by the losers. In addition to the work within the organization itself, there were sev- eral parties held by both associations. These were well planned and added greatly to the social activities of the school. We feel that, although our work this year has been a great success, there is still a wonderful opportunity to forge ahead in the future. We feel that we have helped to make more firm the foundation which our prede- cessors have laid, but our work will not have reached the ideal until every Y. W. C. A. member can sincerely say: pledge allegiance to my Flag, and to the Sai ' ioiir for whose Kingdom it stands, one brotherhood uniting all mankind in service and love.

Every Saturday night the girls meet in the Tripartite Room in Bradley Hall where they are entertained by their schoolmates. Many very clever and original programs are prepared, in which vocal selections, piano solos, book reviews, poems and extemporaneous speeches help to compose a very interesting evening. These little appearances have much to do with helping the girls to overcome self consciousness and gaining confidence in appearing before the public. One evening this year we were very delightfully entertained by Miss Minnie V. Taylor, an Alumna of Dickinson and one who had the honor of being the very first Tripartite President. Our season has indeed been very successful and we wish the Tripartite Society of the coming year all the success that we have had.

Its purpose is set forth in these words of its founders, in the opening lines of its constitution ; Whereas it is necessary, in order to fit ourselves for the varied duties of life, to cultivate a correct mode of speaking and to qualify our- selves by practice to express our opinions in public in a correct manner, etc. Within the last four or five years, the tremendous and vital activities, characteristic of this society, have practically died out. When we examine the records of the meetings in the good old days, and when we stop to think of the lively debates and enjoyable times they used to have, we wonder why it is that such an interesting and educational feature in the life of the school has almost come to naught. Perhaps the best explanation which could be given for this lack of in- terest is the old saying, Times have changed. There are numerous other organizations and activities that now occupy the attention of the students. JM mm Sixty-seven Furthermore, athletics have recently come into greater prominence and consume still more of the time of a large number of students. However, a successful attempt was made this year to rejuvenate the Literary Societies, following the Christmas vacation. The Belles Lettres put on a series of programs in which some foreign country would be the subject for discussion each week. In this way, not only the speakers, but also all members of the society have had their minds enriched and broaden- ed by an imaginary tour through a number of countries, among them being England, France, Italy, and South America. An attempt was made to stage the traditional inter-society debate, but it was found to be too late to prop- erly conduct such a contest with all its necessary preliminaries. Now the responsibility falls upon your shoulders, students who expect to return next year, to see to it that old Belles Lettres keeps going. Per- haps if you could catch a glimpse of former times and realize what a tra- dition has been handed down to you to uphold, then you would have a desire to carry on the beneficial work of this society, even if not on such an exten- sive scale as of old. That the literary meetings can be very instructive and helpful to everyone may easily be seen: that they can be made very inter- esting has been demonstarted throughout the last few months. Now for some pep to arouse the interest of next year ' s incoming students! Let ' s go, undergraduate Dickinsonians! Gamma Epsilon Literary Society WHEN our Alma Mater was in its infancy, our predecessors estab- lished a literary society in this institution, namely, the Gamma Epsilon Literary Society. From the day our elder brethren brought forth our society until now, the records show that the history of the Gamma Epsilon is one that every Gamma should esteem. The Gamma Epsilon Literary Society extends its heartiest congratula- tions and best wishes for future success and prosperity to this year ' s grad- uating class, publishers of this year book, The Dart. Of the goodly number of her own in the graduating class that she now sends forth to the world, she is justly proud. The record of their attainment in this school is an example that many of their successors will follow. Like- Sixty-eight wise, they are proud of the eminence they have attained in being known as Gammas . They bid adieu to their society, as to their Alma Mater, with a keen sense of profound gratitude and indebtedness for the delightful times and pleasant associations, made possible by membership in the Gamma Society. It may be of interest to the readers of this book to know that our liter- ary society convenes every Friday evening, if nothing interferes. The pro- gram is planned a week ahead. A member is not required to take part, but it is to his advantage to make use of all opportunities that train one to speak with ease before an audien ce. Former students, both graduates and undergraduates, tell us of the wonderful time they had in the Old Sem, and especially with the Gammas. Records show that many really worthwhile programs have been rendered in the Gamma Epsilon Literary Society room. With all the opportunities that our society has and with the majority of this year ' s active members returning and scores of new students entering, the future of our society can be all that it now is, or ever was, and more. Fellows! it ' s up to you to keep up our standard. Sixty-nine Kappa Delta Pi Fraternity Amicarelli, Vincent (Micky) Atkins, George T.

Seventy-two tW- Seventy-thre m THE 1926 DART PLAY CASTS Seventy-four a THE 192 6 DART V ' - ' The Dramatic Class UNDER the direction of Miss Marion E. Fleming the Dramatic Class meets every Thursday night for instruction in Expression and Public Speaking. During the first semester Miss Fleming taught the rudi- mentary principles of stage directions and the proper tone and quality of voice necessary for acting. The Class read over several plays and finally elected from among its number a committee which should read over other plays and select for the Class one or two to present during the year. Upon their committee were Mildred McCahan, Jean Mahoney, Vernon Whitaker and George Boggs. The committee chose two short humorous plays: The Trysting Place and An Easy Mark. Try-outs were held for these plays and those who received parts acquitted themselves in such a way as to uphold the reputa- tion of the Dramatic Class. The plays were given Thursday evening, De- cember 17th. They were played to a large audience whose many comments were all gratifying. The Trysting Place was given first and its many clever dialogues and humorous climactic points rendered it very enjoyable. The cast included Mildred McCahan, Jean Mahoney, Marjorie St. Pierre, George R. McCahan, James Johnson, Vernon Whitaker and Edward Sheldon. An Easy Mark, which followed, was likewise a great success. It was full of fun and wit, and to Ellsworth Morgan, who took the part of a young lady, goes a great deal of the credit for the excellent performance. He escaped from many embarrassing situations and tragic, yet funny, entangle- ments with remarkable ease and contrived to escape from the tiresome roommate after many spontaneous excuses. In this play were: Margaret Comely, Marjorie Coates, Earl McKay, George R. McCahan, Ellsworth Morgan, Foster Charlton, and George Boggs. George McCahan, who took who took a part in both plays and spent much time in practice, deserves many thanks. Also to Miss Fleming, the Dramatic Class express their thanks for her kindness and untiring energy toward the making of the plays a success and the class a pleasure and a great benefit. ' Seventy-jive telta Pi r 44TNTO the hearts of men and women walked Jimmy said the program, and the entire audience agreed with the author at the close of the play. Not for a long time has such an enthusiastic gathering witness- ed a more cleverly acted performance than that given on March 5th in our gymnasium. Under the careful and thorough direction of Miss Marion E. Fleming, the Kappa Delta Pi Players presented In Walked Jimmy. The play was an ideal one for such a group of players as each character was portrayed by actors who rendered their parts with such naturalness of poise and speech that the audience entered into the spirit of the story and breath- lessly awaited the outcome. The plot centered around a down-and-out shoe concern, and when the play opened, the head of the concern was almost desperate, about to com- mit suicide. At this point, in walked Jimmy, and from his entrance to the close of the play, everything took on a brighter aspect, including the head of the firm, and through Jimmy ' s cleverness and his sunny disposition, every- thing turned out all right. The part of Jimmy was taken by Milton Crist. He contributed a noteworthy performance and much credit should be given to him. Marjorie Coates took the part of Kitty, the stenographer, and eventu- ally the sweetheart of Jimmy, with her customary poise and easy manner. To Sara Bailey goes the honor for the fun of the evening. As Delia Rogers, also a stenographer, Sara could not have been better and her part was not an easy one to portray. The supporting cast was very adequate and Bud Geigle and Jim Griffiths contributed greatly to the success of the play. To Miss Fleming belongs the credit for the entire production. Her competency as a director was made manifest in the action of the players, the stage settings, and in short, the entire play was made a success by her tireless efforts to make it so. Seventy-six The STRANGE indeed were the sounds which emerged from the Voice Studio on the evenings when Miss Bredenberg tried out the voices for the Choral Club. It was with a feeling of great timidity and indescribable awe that the ones outside the door awaited their turn. At last, the dreadful ordeal was over and proud indeed were the future prima donnas and as- piring Carusos who constitute the Seminary Choral Club. This organization, which is such an important factor in the school, not only in the Sunday evening Vesper Service, but especially at the holiday seasons, made its first appearance on Thanksgiving morning in the Chapel Service. They rendered a very creditable piece of work and showed evi- dences of the great possibilities which were being patiently developed by the director. On Sunday afternoon, December 12, the Cantata, The First Christ- mas by Ira B. Wilson, was given in the Gymnasium before the students and friends of the Seminary. This was certainly well done and much praise is due the entire Club. The Easter Cantata, The Resurrection Story by Carrie B. Adams was sung before an appreciative audience on Sunday, March 21st. The Seventy-seven Jt THE 1926 DART Cantata was repeated in the evening in the Newberry Methodist Church. The auditorium was filled to capacity and many kind and complimentary remarks were made to and about our Club. This Cantata was very fine in- deed. The solo parts were especially good and every member doing his very best, made this second big work of the Club a crowning success. Thanks is due to our new director, Miss Bredenberg, who made our work a delight and who considered nothing less than the best in Choral Club work. Thanks also should be extended to our accompanist, Miss Van Dyke, who very faithfully and competently performed her part at the piano.

Schlichter, Marvin ONE of the organizations that has gained the deserved esteem of the student body this year is the orchestra. Not only has it won the favor of the student body but wherever it has made its appearance, the performances have met with approval. Professor Owen, who comes from England with a wide musical ex- perience, is the person who deserves the credit for raising the Seminary Orchestra to its present standard. He has aimed to make this organization one of the best of its kind among those of its class. With the hearty co- operation of students, who could play their respective instruments well enough to meet the requirements, he has reached the expected goal. This year ' s orchestra is one of the largest in the history of the school. It is composed of only those who are capable of handling their instruments Serenty-eight li with skill. Much more was accomplished this year than in previous years because of the wide range of instrumentation that is necessary to make up a good orchestra. As a result of these two necessary factors, worthwhile programs were presented throughout the entire year. This year ' s orchestra played for the Greater Dickinson Banquet, for which event, in the past, outside orchestras were engaged. This event re- quires good music because of the learned musicians and critics in the audi- ence. This fact, alone, shows the rapid progress that this essential organ- ization is making and its future progress is evident. THE PERSONNEL Frank E.

' sB ■a - j i Mfl iu 1 K ' I F The Angel Factory NEAR the placid waters of the broad Potomac stands a colossal monu- ment, a silent tribute to perpetuate the memory of America ' s illus- trious son whose sense of honor placed him first in war, first in peace, first in the hearts of his fellowmen. Corresponding to this towering struc- ture, whose cold gray walls seem to pierce the very dome of the sky, reviv- ing in the passing traveller the memory of that patriot of Revolutionary fame, Dickinson Seminary boasts a monument erected to those signally hon- ored and trusted who dwell within its time-honored walls. What is this imposing structure where dwells the Syrian host and honor is the rule and spots the exception? To those who have once exper- ienced its attractive privileges, it is a haven of peace, a refuge far removed from the vigilant eye of that slightly necessary body labelled faculty. To those who have been on the factory ' s pay-roll, but because of a super- fluous usurpation of its enviable and gratifying advantages, have bid fare- well to the Statue of Liberty, there comes in the days of evil oppression the haunting words of Milton — Paradise Lost. Eighty The Angel Factory, as it has been cleverly termed, is in a peculiar sense the half way station between elastic freedom and personified confinement. Sometimes among that happy and energetic Angelic Host are those who forget their angelic bearing and perform certain fiendish pranks that come to light. The unfortunate prodigal, chastised verbally by the Dean, is officially ostracized from that exclusive domain and becomes a sixth hall hermit. Fondly his memory turns to that stately dwelling, sequestered at the southwest corner of the campus, where a homelike atmosphere pre- vades its scarred and initialed walls and the spirit of good fellowship prevails. Here this cosmopolitan group of angels plan their nefarious schemes and hold their numerous feeds and as the iron tongue of midnight peals forth its doleful message that old gang of theirs sing Sweet Adeline (although they have no voice in the matter) and then take their tents like the Arab and steal silently away. When do we eat is their enduring motto and fervently do they cherish the hope that that same label may adorn the door of success. Embarking from this safe port, some Dickinsonian may launch his ship and winter in Greenwich Village or pause at the world famous rendezvous, Monte Carlo, but where ' er he may anchor, he will look back upon the fac- tory with fond memories. Many have gone out to play a man ' s part in a man ' s world but we venture to say that not one of those privileged angels will neglect to meditate, as he sits before the glowing fireside in his palatial mansion and listens to the melancholy note of the lonely whip-poor-will, on the old days and the many pleasurable moments of complete happiness that were his in his private residence at old Dickinson. To that departed brother and to all those who have enjoyed this unique pleasure we feel safe in predicting that the Angel Factory will eventually be baptized the eighth wonder of the world. Vn Fft Eiyhty-une 11:1 The Varsity Hasli-Slinging Cre w ONE of the most indispensable, yet perhaps, least applauded groups in Dickinson Seminary, is that of the waiters. This efficient force of hash-slingers, headed by their capable chief, James T. (Curly) Johnson, render a most necessary service to the faculty and student body three times a day. Curly has the double duty of serving tables and calling to the ' phone booth such individuals as receive calls. For this reason he is quite the center of attraction when the ' phone rings, all the students eyeing him with the attitude, Is it 1? To Milt Crist and Newt Griffiths is intrusted the responsibility of supplying the Seminary ' s athletes with sufficient food to insure their superior performance upon the field. As Milt and Newt are athletes themselves, they are especially adapted to their task. Tiny Charlton, despite his enormous size, manages to give service to the Dean and Prof. Owen without blocking an aisle for more than five minutes at a time. mmn Eighty-two S THE 192 6 DART 1 Prof. Aker ' s and Miss Bredenberg ' s tables are ably served by Harold McCune, who evidently has decided to speed up his service by going out to make the track squad. During the evening meal, the school is honored by the presence of Dr. Long and his family, whose wants are attended to by Charlie Brewe r. True to tradition, Brewer never lets anyone go dry, hence he works his water pitcher overtime, as either Dr. Long or Mrs. Brunstetter will testify. Country Bowen, an aspiring baseball star, waits upon the Misses Manley and Kapp, with whom he must have made a hit, as neither have any- thing but commendation for his meritorious services. Perhaps the most quiet of all the waiters is George Gibson, whose place in the picture is taken by Marvin Schlicter, who subbed for George during the latter ' s illness. The palm for efficiency goes to George R. McCahan, who always finishes ahead of all the other waiters and then trots out the food for the rest of the crew. Doc Artley has assumed the task of supplying the wants of Miss Herrington ' s and Prof. Greene ' s tables, where he has distinguished him- self by the hackneyed expressions, I forgot and excuse me. Bobby Pumphrey, by his winning smile and prompt services, has en- deared himself to those who sit at the tables of the Misses Graham and Walker. As a whole, the waiters ' force of Dickinson Seminary is most efficient, rot only in serving others, but also in serving themselves at the famous Second Table. The L H THE Latin-American boys, this year numbered eleven, and they were from Cuba, Porto Rico, Mexico and Spain. These boys were good friends of the American fellows, and many interesting moments were spent with them when they would tell us about the customs and happenings in their particular land. The majority of these boys are enrolled in the Commercial Course but a few of them are in the College Preparatory Course. Some of them have studied in schools in their own land, and are continuing their work here, learning the English language. Some of them are hoping to continue their education in college. With this, we are sure that they will make good when they return to their native land, and make a name for themselves. Nevertheless, the faculty and student body were glad to have them among us, as Variety is the spice of life, and wherever they may go, and into whatever field they may hope to enter, Dickinson Seminary extends to them their best wishes for their success and happiness.

Each year a different society elects the editor-in-chief. Seven issues of the Dickinson Union are published during the school year, the final issue being put out solely by the Junior Class. This year the Board has had very good success with all the issues, some being excep- tionally good. For this, we must give credit to those at the head of each department, who labored so diligently and successfully; also to our editor- in-chief, who kept the unity and cooperation among the Board. Then to our Faculty advisors. Miss Louise Van Dyke and Miss Ruth Kapp, we must give credit, for their work and care in seeing that the magazine was up to standard and in line with the faculty ' s point of view. Every year this staff gives prizes for the best poem and story written for the magazine. In this way, the Union Board has received many interest- ing poems and stories, which helped in making the Dickinson Union a real success. - ' ■j— - -«.- - Eighty-five LSI THE 192 6 DART To give you an idea of the magnitude of tfie wori on the Board, we will mention the different departments in this paper. First, we have the edi- torial, written by the editor-in-chief, in which may be found some good ad- vice, or some valuable information that is inspiring. Then we have the literary department. This contains stories and poems written and contribut- ed by students of the school, and we have found some real literary geniuses among us. Following this department, comes the athletics. Here we get a detailed account of the most recent games played by the Seminary teams, and we have developed some good sports writers. Now the Seminary has social events, parties, banquets and plays. To keep these events fresh in our memories, the Dickinson Union puts them in the form of locals, where we can obtain a complete idea of any one of these happenings. But we cannot put out a paper without some outside criticism and thoughts. Therefore, in the exchange department are found the ideas and the criticisms of other schools of our magazines. Their suggestions from time to time have been helpful to us in improving our paper. But we students must have an idea of what our own Alumni are doing and what Dickinson Seminary has done for them, and what it might do for us. This is all found in our Alumni department, and it is sometimes interesting to read over this and see what some of our old pals of years gone by are doing. Last, but not least, we must have something in our paper, as in all papers, that will make the reader smile. We have accomplished this end very well in our exchange jokes and Seminary Hash. And may it be added here that this year this department was exceptionally good, and it helped considerably in making the Dickinson Union a success. As the year comes to a close, the Union Board passes its labors and pleasures on to its successors with best wishes for the publication of a creditable magazine next year. hr iim III I 4T!iiTTTiiblli irTrii ■ ' Eighty-six S) THE 192 6 DART %n The Day THE day students at Dickinson Seminary comprise about one-third of the entire student body. At the beginning of the school year of 1925, these students were organized with John Lindemuth as president. Although they do not have any activities of their own, they enter into those offered by the school. The day students have an advantage over the board- ing students in that they enjoy the opportunities offered by the city of Williamsport. Besides the older and more advanced pupils, there are Jun- ior, Academic, and Kindergarten departments made up almost entirely of town students. In athletics, the day students are well represented. Some of the best known athletes are Jew Good, Con Cassidy, and Johnny Lindemuth. Both boys and girls have their own class basketball teams and take an active part in the class games. But athletics are not the only activities in which the day students excel. They are well represented on the weekly honor roll. There will be about fifteen day students graduating in the class of twenty-six and we know that there will be some of them represented as honor students. I; I; in Ml!! ' :: mmm ighty-seven Sixth Hall Rouglineclcs BA-A-B-A-A, m-o-o, m-o-o, mei-ow-o-w, me-e-ow, cock, o-doodle-do; no, it wasn ' t in the country farm-yard — but it was on Dici inson Seminary sixth hall. It happened after ten bells, and every person on this hall is given six spots, and ten if I hear another yap. Such was the expression of a professor after the so-called farm-yard had their celebration. This was the climax of a slowly rising spirit like that which motivated our forebearers as they shook their clubs in defiance at the sun, but civilza- tion in the person of Prof. Owens quelled, as it always has, this display of wildness and recklessness. However, from this occasion arose the title for the gang that occupies the place that is nearest Heaven in Dickinson Sem- inary, (but, that doesn ' t mean anything), SIXTH HALL ROUGHNECKS. Contrary to the fact, that the fifth hall was treated a little rough at the hands of this Hall of Fame and that a few of the boys of the lower stories, have run a gauntlet of shoes, slippers, paddles and pillows, the sixth hall bunch is one of the finest at Dickinson Seminary. On it, this year are found most of the athletes of the school, and the boys that keep the spirit of school life and fair play, imbedded in the lives of the other students. Eighty-ciyht The A. and THE A. B. Club, otherwise known as the Anthracite-Bituminous Club, is composed of members from both hard and soft coal fields of Penn- sylvania. This club was first brought before those interested students by Derk and Geigle, both of Trevorton, backed by the Griffiths Brothers of Girardville, both towns being in the heart of the hard coal region. It was decided by these charter members to unite with the soft coal miners and form what is now known as the A. B. Club. Buttons were at once secured, and all too well can we remember the large buttons with the large numbers, worn by this independent order of Dickinson Seminary in ' 25 and ' 26. Meetings were held once in a while in Derk and Geigle ' s room. It seemed that during the progress of business, or after business was over, the consumers wanted to take part and have their say in such meetings. This was flatly refused by the miners and consequently, fifteen minutes later, or thereabouts, one of the Profs had to come and stop the free-for-all which would have eventually ended up in the entire devastation of the room. The main subject of discussion of this club was the hard coal strike that over- whelmed the hard coal fields at this time. Heated arguments over this, and how it could be settled, were often heard on the halls, in the classrooms and practically all over the campus.

E bovf No history of Dickinson Seminary could be considered as complete without having recorded the achievements of the illustrious class of ' 26. While it began its career in 1922, even then its fame became so well known that it was immediately recognized as possessing greater capability for becoming world-famous than any other class. These early signs of promise have not been disappointing. Pages would fail to do jus- tice in describing the actual accomplishments which four short years have produced. From the standpoint of athletics we claim distinction. As Freshmen, we combined with the Juniors against the Sophomores and Seniors in an inter-class football game, and won. As Sophomores, we combined with the Seniors and won from the Freshmen and Juniors. As Juniors, we were awarded a silver cup for receiving more points in athletics than any other class. Our class also ranks high in scholarship, several of the members hav- ing maintained an average of ninety per cent, or above. Our career as an organized class started at the beginning of our Junior year, when we had our first meeting and elected the following officers: Milton B. Crist, President; Lou Elizabeth Ross, Vice-President; Frances Bubb, Secretary; Francis Geigle, Treasurer. Miss Ruth Kapp was chosen as Class Advisor. Deeds, Not Words was selected as our motto. All the officers returned last fall except Lou Elizabeth Ross, who was succeeded by Helen Reeser as Vice-President. Though some who started with us as Freshmen are not now among our number, others have joined us from time to time, so that at present we have the largest enrollment of any class graduating from Dickinson, giving us the superior charm of quantity, as well as quality. Among the most notable events in the career of our class were the Junior and Senior sleigh rides. On each occasion, we went to the Ever- green Tea Room, near Cogan Station, where we were served a chicken and waffle dinner, to which, it is needless to say, everybody present did ample justice. Upon our return from the Junior sleigh ride, we were given a sumptuous banquet by the Seniors, and upon our return from the Senior sleigh ride, the Juniors also furnished us with a splendid banquet. Judging from the past, a brilliant future lies open to the members of the class of ' 26. Who knows what positions of distinction and honor may be filled by members of this glorious class! — Catherine C. Porter. Qt ' Ml Ninety-one mmwrsmm Class Will WE, the Senior Class of 1926, being of mature age and sound and disposed mind, do hereby indite this, our last Will and Testament: And we do hereby direct that our funeral services shall be con- ducted by our friends and well-wishers, the Faculty, only enjoining that the funeral shall be carried on with such dignity and pomp to which our stand- ing in school entitles us.

Sara Bailey, George Gehron. Attorneys. Ninety-five As the class of 1926 was contemplating its coming commencement exercises, it fell to my lot to forecast the future of these fair dam- sels and gallant young men. After vainly endeavoring to cultivate what is commonly known as second sight, I concluded that prophetic vis- ion was not my strongest point and the actual revelation must take place. However, in the summer of 1954, nearly a quarter of a century later, it was my good fortune to learn the fate of those young ladies and gentlemen who were once careful and happy school girls and boys in the dear old his- toric town of Friendship. It came about in this way: I was called out West on business, and while passing through the State of Wyoming, the train was wrecked and the passengers were obliged to alight at a small station. I wandered about the p lace, impatiently waiting for the outward-bound train, when 1 noticed a big, black cloud in the north. Almost immediately everything grew dark, and I felt myself being whirled around and lifted very rapidly upward. When 1 dared look around I espied an old man coming toward me. He inquired who I was and whence I came. I told him, and he said: You are now on one of the inferior planets, of which I am the high priest. You came to me in a cyclone, and there is but one way to return; that is, by allowing yourself to be put in a trance and whirled from place to place. To this 1 readily consented. The high priest made some cabalistic signs, and soon I became very drowsy. The first thing I realized was that I was in a strange city, and lo! as I walked up the street I met an exceed- ingly stout lady pushing a go-cart. She immediately recognized me, but it was some time before I could convince myself that it was my old class mate, Billy Huntley. The city then changed, and I again found myself in Friendship, where I met Peg Mansel, who had just driven in from Nesbit where she said she was keeping a store and living alone. Les McClain, I afterward learned, had played her false and she remained an old maid. From Nesbit, 1 went to Boston, and while wandering about the streets was attracted by a sign which read: We Can Increase Your Height, Short People — Do Not Despair. I realized how disagreeable it was to be tall and hoping this condition could also be remedied, I walked in. I opened the door of the tumble-down shop, and there stood a brunette lady, very slim and tall. While I was trying to think whom she resembled, she said: Don ' t you remember me, Sara? Sure enough, ' twas Marjorie Coates. Ninety-six I made my way to Catawissa, where I met Gladys Tyson. She had taken unto herself a husband, and together they were demonstrating the value of cereals of all kinds and descriptions. Then the scene changed and I found myself in New York, where I met my old chum, Peg Sterner. After she left school, she formed a beauty show, herself being the greatest attraction. Associated with her were Eliza- beth Roney, ' ' Peg Kauffman and Gladys Weston. New York seemed to change to a small town in China, where I met Anna Egan. Imagine my surprise when 1 found her head of the Women ' s Suffrage Bureau in China. While in Philadelphia, there arose before my eyes in one of its most prominent business sections a sign which read Marriage Broker, Room 502, 5th floor. Of course, being an old maid, I was attracted by this sign and immediately made my way to room 502. I asked for the manager, and when she appeared I recognized the voice and exclaimed, Why, jean Mahoney! Is this sod-covered mound found in the cemetery of the same city and marked by a granite stone at one end, the final resting place of one of our number? Ah, the inscription of the stone reads: Emma Leo Born 1844 Died 1946 She died from the fright of a green grasshopper. In Harrisburg, Pa., I found Earl McKay filling the Governor ' s chair. (He had expanded greatly since I last saw him.) In a small town, I saw Helen Hand going from house to house, enter- ing and remaining but a short time in each house. Is she a book agent or patent medicine seller you ask? She was the State Button and Sus- pender Inspector for Arkansas. (Name c hanged by act of Legislature.) What next loomed in sight? A woman who was standing on an eleva- tion — a platform, or a box, perhaps, gesticulating frantically and evidently talking, or rather shouting loudly, to a large crowd on a street corner. But why was I interested? It was merely Berry Ross, soap-boxing against the high cost of straw hats and face powder. While in Chicago, I was entertained by two of our classmates. Miss Baker and Miss Shirley, who had become great friends of Paderewski. While in Harrisburg, I met Alberta Parker, Helen Travelet, and Dorothy Edler, who were private secretaries to our present governor, Mr. McKay. The scenes changed and I found myself in Trout Run, going to Barnum Ninety-seven THE 1926 DART and Bailey Circus, but my surprise was unlimited when I found two old friends, Nancy Ferguson and Helen Reeser, the largest and smallest of the Seminary, performing in the side shows. Helen accompanied Nancy on the piano while Nancy entertained. My next town was Hughesville and there I found Helen Ritter, celebrat- ing her silver anniversary and Howard was at her side, still casting longing looks toward her. While in Maryland, 1 met Mary Resh, who has a barber shop for ladies. While passing through Salt Lake City, I met the following: Brewer, Cadel, Weitzel and Woodruff conducting a matrimonial agency for the Mormons. When on a visit to the home town, I saw a great side show at Johnny Jones Carnival. One of the main attractions was Omar Paulson, the toughest man in seven counties. In New York I also met Bye Hayes, Newt Griffiths, Huston, Derk, and Best playing in the Four Horsemen. Tiny Charlton was the horse. All our hard-working, calloused, tough workmen I saw in the wilds of Alaska digging gold. Those present were Boggs, Rothrock, Sheldon, Baird, Behm and George Taylor. Mr. Roberts I saw on a western sugar-beet plantation painting tamed sunflowers. Today he is one of the most noted daubers shoving a brush. In passing through Faxon 1 met Jerry Maitland. She was very Good. Chink Young and Bud Scott were met in a quiet section of New- berry, both being old maids. They seemed to have no time for men, what- soever. In Hollywood I visited Frances Bubb at the Bureau of Social Standards where she is dictator. I also found Elizabeth Watkins, mistress of Big Branch in South Dakota. While passing Broadway I noticed Catherine Porter was running a beauty parlor. I also saw Reba Decker and Peg Schuyler in New York. Both claimed that they couldn ' t find any men to fall in love with. I found Charles Bailey has an interest in Jones Milinery Shop on West Fourth Street, Williamsport, Pa. I returned to Trout Run and met Denny Smith who owns 10 9 of the town and supplies wood to provide heat in the summer time. Ninety-eight THE I9Z6 DART Down in Baltimore, I saw Mr. Crist. He was working on an invention, which would remove all the wall-eyed pike from Chesapeake Bay. Out in St. Paul, Minnesota, 1 met Vernon Whitaker, who is a large stockholder in an aluminum company. While up in Moscow I met Doc Harrington who is running a Patent Leather Hair School for the benefit of the Bolshevists. Stopping at Hono- lulu I went to the Y. M. C. A. and was surprised to find jimmy Elliott was secretary. When I was in Coaldale, 1 saw an office door which had on it the fol- lowing: Undertaking Parlors, Coaldale Hardware Co., Coal Mines, Wow News Company, Crooked Hair Pin Co., all owned by George R. McCahan. In Huntingdon, I saw Les McClain who was conducting a ladies ' wear- ing apparel shop. Upon arriving at Monte Carlo, the first acquaintances I met were Willis Willard, Gibson and Rohrbaiigh, all members of famous Moss-Covered Seven-Come-Eleven Club. They were doing a rushing business at the time. I also found Paul Cassidy in Paris running an elaborate art gallery. While in Havana, 1 was surprised by the headlines in the newspaper printed following a riot. They contained the following, Luis Garcia and Vincent Amicarelli arrested last night for trying to induce people to organize a Ku-Klux-Klan Society. Back in Montoursville I was entertained by old timers — Noel Smith, Manherz, Snyder, and Sireppenheiser; better known as the Red-Hottest Jazz Orchestra between Muncy and Montoursville. I was getting very tired touring so thought I would rest awhile and stopped in Kentucky v here I met Bud Geigle one day, this particular day being his 61st birthday. He said he had just learned about Floyd Collins ' death, and was hoping for a chance to see Floyd again before they buried him. With a sudden thud I became myself and landed in my home town! This ends the prophecy of the class and you will be true, O Class of 1926, true in the greatest and true in the least; and looking into all futures, I feel that in the Great Tomorrow which you are to help make, I can put the invocation of Tiny Tim into a solemn affirmation that God will bless us, every one! Ti ■Ninety -nine 5) TM E: 1926 DART S-t One Hundred : w One Hundred One SOCIAL is an agreement between a boy and girl student of Dickinson Seminary, with the consent of a faculty member, to sit in the Cnapel between the hours of 6:30 and 7:00 on Tuesday evening to whisper sweet nothings and to speak about the happenings of the day, (mostly the former). In order to enable an outsider to visualize our weekly thrill, 1 shall proceed to relate a few of the conversations one would hear if he were sufficiently invisible to pass by the various social couples. In the row next to the last (the farthest permissible section) and at the far end of the row might be heard these words: Really, dear, I — I — won ' t you — er — ? Oh, Tod, you know I will! Then two seats away in the same row: Betty, abso- lutely I — Not another word, Jack. 1 can ' t be convinced. Nearer the front in the same scetion : Honestly, Dick, I just love footballs! Nearer the girls ' entrance, not by choice but because he had been delayed at the waiters ' table, sits an entranced young couple. The girl looks soulfully into his eyes saying: Please, Newt, don ' t joke. That takes away the sacredness of the whole thing. Some people are extremely curious to know just what goes on in chapel during this exhilarating period. It was even rumored that Bill Huntley used the alibi that she was being pursued by her roommate just for the privilege of falling at the entrance of that hallowed room. But woe to the couples who are so unfortunate as to find at the end of the week that they are on campus. This means that social privileges are taken away. On such occasions, one may frequently find the spotted per- son in the library studying diligently until the bell rings for her to pass from class. In the beginning of the year when some of our big, handsome football heroes organized an at ' iletic circle, it was really pathetic when the Dean reprimanded Granny Nye for the blood-curdling noises which came from Big Joe Bechdel ' s bass voice-box. So, stranger, if you should ever happen within the confines of Dickinson Seminary on a Tuesday night at the stated time, do not miss half of your life by keeping away from the Chapel door.

One Hundred Five Bill Cross Our Dart would not be complete without devoting a page to the one whose cheerfulness and ever willingness to lend a hand has endeared him to the hearts of the entire student body. Bill knows absolutely every- thing that has happened at the Sem since time immemorial, and his value cannot be estimated. With affection and loyalty, the Class of ' 26 dedicate this space to Bill Cross. ne Hundred Six M i: t Prof. Markle (After explaining very carefully a long problem in Alge- bra II. and going into every detail, at length, asks) : Is there anyone here who can ' t see that? Luis Garcia: I can ' t, Frof. You ' re between me and the board. Prof. Sterling: How did he exercise? Cuddy : He had two dumb-bells. Prof. Sterling: He ' s lucky he didn ' t have as many as I have. Prof. Markle: Please put the date on your papers hereafter. You know we like dates. McKay: So we hear. Ode to my Room-mate: 11 Bucks. Every dog can have his day, all we fellows want are our Saturday nights. The reason some athletes never train is because the faculty keeps them in condition all the time. Sheldon (On way to Penn State) : Hey, I ' m going your way. Motorist: So I see, but I ' ll get there first. Love lies in a woman ' s eyes, and lies, and lies, and lies. FAMOUS SAYINGS — If you fellov s don ' t soon start to study, you ' ll be reading the same textbook next year. — After chapel I would like to see the following. — You look handsome, when you smile like that. — Get out of here, I ' M trying to study. Prof. Greene: I certainly hope I won ' t hav ' e to pro mpt anybody today. Neal: So do I Prof., so don ' t call on me. P of. Markle: Brewer, what seems to be your trouble with Algebra? Brewer: ' Well, as far as radicals and rationalization are concerned, they ' re altogether too radical for me, and I can ' t see anything rational in them. Miss Kapp (in History) : Mr. Charlton, your notebook is due!

One Hundred Eight UENVOI The Senior Class takes this last oppor- tunity to bid farewell to dear old Seminary. The years we have spent here are now but a series of memories and the years to come an uncharted sea, but the spirit and les- sons we have learned here will pervade our entire life. So good-bye Sem, we ' ve loved you while we ' ve lived here, and will always remember the School Upon the Hilltop.

The generosity of one of our distinguished citizens, Dr. J. K.

B. H. Crever of the college class of 1840, and the following Dickinsonians were Presidents of the Semi- nary: Bishop Thomas Bowman, 1837; J. H. Dashiel, 1840; W. L. Spotts- wood, 1841; Bishop W. P. Eveland, 1892; and John W. Long, 1907; all perhaps, but three. The Dickinsonians who have taught in the Seminary are too numerous to name, Professors Green, Cornwell, Skeath, VanDyke and Markle being the present representatives. Many Seminary graduates have gone to Dickinson for their college course, and many of them are now in the College.
