ADMINISTRMIOH Thirteen To The Members of the Class of 1927. Life is largely a path-finding process. Maps and guide posts are abundant but they ofl ' er little help for every life is a new course with its own objective. Walking wins if you walk on the right road. Dur- ing your college career you have proceeded in para- llel lines but your commencement is an order to break ranks. From this point on your course will be more individualistic. You will choose your own way, or make it. You will go ahead bravely, insist- ently. Sometimes you will halt for a moment to look back. Perhaps you may fondly envison Mar- shall as a lighted temple, — on an eminence, — which has helped you keep the lay of the land in mind. May the Marshall memories, like the monk ' s ben- ediction to the Alpine traveler, cheer you on the way. You are off for the journey! Our hearts go with you. Good luck ! M.

It has been a successful and an earnest year for the student council and all those interested in a greater Marshall ; the crucial years are yet to be passed. Student government has and must depend upon the sincere efforts of every student to lend co-operation to its leaders and to govern themselves. I would urge the acceptance of this responsibility by each student, so that there may be a greater Marshall College. Bob Goff, Student President.

On that date, the largest freshman class that ever made its appearance on the beautiful campus crossed the his- torical threshold of the Administration Building. From the first memorable day the school seemed transformed, for real college spirit was evident in th enew class. Among the six hundred who donned the green and white insignia of their rank were many who were to become envied Marshall heroes. Neither the football team, nor the baseball team, nor the basketball team would have been complete without the material drawn from the freshman class, and the publication staffs, the dramatic club, and the debating teams furnished fields for freshman action. The Freshmen soon made a name for themselves. Their football and tug of war teams proved too much for the lordly Sophs, their thuses and pajama parades put Marshall spirit before the city. Nor did they lose their spirit as the year progressed, but continued to find fresh fields of endeavor. ' ■hill - Eighty MIRABILTA ' f C Eighty-one I I A new era in athletics . at Marshall College has been instituted by ' Legs ' Hawley since he came to the campus last fall. His enthusiasm for greater athlet- ics has communicated itself to the student body and to the football, I basketball, and baseball teams. The athletic board has ROY M. LEGS HAWLEY een changed to in- Director of Athletics elude two seniors and two members of the alumni. Thus athletics have come to be an all- student affair, instead of a closed institution. ' Eighty-two MIRABILTA COACH TRUSTY TALLMAN In two years of coaching at Mar- shall, Trusty Tallman has brought far more victories than defeats. He has instilled into the Big Green a fighting spirit that has made The Thundering Herd a by-word. DAVIES In his first year, Davies has won a place in the hearts of the boys he helps to coach. His kindly interest has kept the subs fighting for a place until the whole squad is in fighting trim. CAPTAIN CY MEREDITH Tackle-End ' Varsity ' 24, 25, ' 26. A three-year veteran and captain of his team, Cy Meredith has been a demon at tackle and an impenetrable barrier at end. His fighting courage never let his men halt in the assault on the enemy lines, and he fought whether winning or losing. m0ii ■ 4 j t MIRABILTA . 7 yi! ' Eighty-three NICHOLS End ' Varsity ' 25, ' 26. A charging or passing end, Nichols was a consistent fighter. He carried the Big Green colors with a vengeance and his attacl s were hard and fast. McKOWN Center ' Varsity ' 24, ' 25, ' 26. The fighting Scotchman waged his battles in silence, but they were none the less effective. His passing was always direct to the backs, even while the enemy line was piling upon him. iJhi ' I ii tiNli Eighty-four CASSEL Quarterback ' Varsity ' 25, ' 26. Fighting with calm precision, Frog Cassel, hump-te-diddy quar- terback, was a brainy field general all the way. Against Grove City, when defeat was inevitable, he continued to call his play with the same calm judgment. € MIRABILIA i ., ' McCAFFERY End ' Varsity ' 23, ' 24, ' 25, ' 26 An end who could hold his own against the best of them, McCaffery never failed to come through with a gain. His speed placed him in a class alone. I POLING Fullback ' Varsity ' 25, ' 26. Poling ' s battering ram rushes brought him face all year with long gains, but the Hampden-Sidney game brought him into the limelight as a brainy quarterback who could call the plays as well as run them. ' , GREEN Halfback ' Varsity ' 25, ' 26 A speedy little halfback who can run, pass, and kick the ball is Green ' s claim in the hall of fame. A fleet- footed demon in moleskins, Willie had the guts and the fighting heart. -ip«i M1RAB1L.TA, Eighty- five SHEETS Tackle ' Varsity ' 25, ' 26 A tackle who for two years has held them all at bay, Sheets is one of Tallman ' s finds in whom the men- tor has great pride. BLAINE Center ' Varsity ' 25, ' 26 The fightingest center to wear the Green and White in many moons, Blaine was a bearcat on the offense, showing no mercy to opposing lines as he led the interference. 1 ■h II ' I ii bu; Eighty-six D ' AUITO Halfback ' Varsity ' 25, ' 26 The fleet-footed D ' Auito made the record run of the reason when he stopped a Fairmont back within a yard of the goal line after a fifty- yard dash. In the same game, Uke made two touchdowns in as many min- utes. MIRABIMA ; c=- ' Pt p f PORTER Guard •Varsity ' 26 to the Green and A newcomer White, Porter won his colors with a fighting exhibition at guard against every opponent. He was in the fight every minute. MARTIN Guard ' Varsity ' 26 Another newcomer was Martin, who won his colors by a dogged battle for guard and vindicated himself in ev- ery game with yards gained and op- ponents blocked. McCOMAS Guard ' Varsity ' 26 Not only in short stories does a ' varsity man win his letter after four years on the squad. McComas came through in his last year with the most brilliant guarding game on the team. MIRABILIA Eighty-seven 00 BUNTEN Halfback ' Varsity ' 26 A tow-headed lad who was the sea- son ' s phenom when it came to tearing through the line or cutting the ends. Against Hampden-Sidney he was a fighting flash who twice carried the ball within a yard of the Virginian ' s goal. SPARKS Guard ' Varsity ' 26 Not last among the newcomers was Sparks, hard-hitting guard, who won his spurs at the cost of injuries that kept him out of several games. I FETTER Manager And all their victories were hard- earned by the earnest little manager who kept them in fighting trim with scrupulous fidelity. ' , ifc«- Eightij-eight MIRABILIA ■tf«l m 4] 4 YOUNG Tackle ' Varsity ' 26 A stone wall that could also move with surprising swiftness was the 230-pound tackle who will pilot the Big Green in 1927. His team mates confidence and honor is his best rec- ommendation.

But the Tigers did not find their prey ; instead they became the prey themselves, and the Big Green Thundering Herd charged and rushed them across a muddy field to a score- less tie. But the game was scoreless for the Big Green only because a halfback slipped in the mire one foot from the goal. The Tigers went back to their lair chastened and subdued and the Big Green had won a victory over their highly touted enemies. I ' A BIG GREEN CHARGE i «- Ninety M1RAB11.TA .

The flash of the season was McKown, whose great floor work and timely shots saved the Big Green from defeat many times. Jackie was the fan ' s idol from the first game.

GOFF Business Manager THE 1927 MIRABILIA I One Hundred The 1927 Mirabilia is meant to be a faithful mirror of the collegiate year. No effort has been spared to make it the reflector of every phase of Mai ' shall ac- tivities. It has been a long and assiduous task, but its com- pletion has compensated the toil. The editors take this opportunity to express appreciation for the assistance — unhonored and unsung — of every staff member and all the others who have aided in its making. In its building, several changes have been made from previous annuals. They have been well consid- ered, and the staff awaits the judgment of the student body. ' , •4 MIRABIMA ' lc d ' ASA W.

Beginning with the second semester of this year, The Parthenon was placed in the regular college budget by a vote of the student body, thus making it possible for every student in Mar- shall College to be a subscribe)-. The paper was this year changed from a bi-weekly to a weekly, the change making it evident that The Parthenon is steadily gain- ing in importance as an organ of the student body. The Parthenon is a member of the West Virginia Inter- collegiate Press Association.

S. Wiiite, has grown to be one of the largest departments in the college. Its students place in accredited law schools with distinction every year. The department, while it does not intend to do the work of a law school, endeavors to prepare students for entrance and work in the leading law schools of the country. The courses of study are so organized and presented as to give the student a background and a point of view that will enable him to handle more clearly and efficiently the work of a law school. To this end, the most of the courses given deal with the origin, na- ture, and sources, and purpose of the law; an effort is made to acquaint the student with legal phraseology and terminology, and to give him a preliminary introduc- tion to the juristic method of thought and procedure.

One Hundred Eleven Pre-Medic Department The Pre-Medic Department was organized in September, 1920, under the direction of Professor W. I. Utterback. Only ten students were enrolled at the start; now there are fifty-six. Many have graduated from our two-year course and are now doing well in such medical colleges as Jefferson, Richmond, Louis- ville, Ohio State and our own state university. Some of our graduates have received the coveted M.D., and have started suc- cessful practice. Nine of our numbers have received their A.B. from Marshall and others intend to follow their example. For the last three years certificates of graduation have been granted by the college; this year there are ten eligible candidates for graduation. Our motto has been Preparation for Production and we have been endeavoring to lay down a firm foundation in the brick and mortar of chemistry, physics and biology. The facilities whcih have been placed at our disposal are the best that can be found anywhere for this very valuable preparatory work. In ad- dition to the well-equipped laboratories we are glad to have a departmental library in the director ' s room where information can be secured on the latest work in medicine, surgery, etc., and where, too, we may learn concerning the requirements of the lead- ing medical colleges and j yg pare acco rdkiglv.

Levering, Secretary of the Huntington Chapter, early in June of the same year. The American Association of Engineers is a nation-wide organization of Engineers working for the welfare of men and women in this profession, and the students of the Marshall College Chapter are very fortunate in being brought into close contact with those practicing the profession. This year the Marshall College Chapter won the silver loving cup offered by the National Board of Directors to the chapter first to make its membership one hundred per cent of the enrollment in the engineering school in which it is located.
