W. B. SMITH THE DRAGON, 1919 In Memoriam ILLIANI BALLARD SIVIITH was born in Augusta County, Virginia, on May 27, 1863, and died at the lXflcDonogh School, February 19, 1919. He completed his education in 1887 at the Washington and Lee University, Lexington, Va., where he won the degrees of Nlaster of Arts and Civil Engineer. Immediately upon graduating he was selected by Col. VVilliam Allan, then Principal of N1cDonogh, as a member of his staff of instructors. He was then twenty-four years of age. His classes were those in mathematics, physics, chemistry, mechanical drawing, and manual training in the wood working shops. This last subject became a passion with him, and he so inspired his workers among the boys that it was often hard to tell which was the more eager for per- fection, the instructor or the pupil. In fact, he entered so earnestly, completely and cheerfully into his work, and was so happily in sympathy with his pupils, that their progress was unusually rapid and sustained. NVithout detracting for a moment from his decided ability as a teacher, it can be said that a great void will be felt at hlellonogh at his loss as a man and a friend. In his presence one felt the sincerity, the clean, pure trueness of the man, and was at ease, knowing there was nothing to fear, nothing to doubt. To be with him gave one such a comfortable, companionable feeling. The young McDonogh boy felt it without perhaps knowing why, the older boy would call it in his boyish vernacular being straightl' or on the level, while the Alumni soon knew it as Nthe soul of honorf' Add to this a charm of manner, enriched by modesty, simplicity, warm-heartedness, and you have a man who drew others unto him and won their respect, admiration and love. And the home life, how beautifull Its hospitality radiated over the entire NleDonogh community and drew the teachers, boys of the school, Alumni and their friends to its flreside, where they were ever welcome. On June 23, 1391, Klr. Smith married Kliss Klary lifmmette Brooks, of Augusta County, Yirginia, and on July 8, 1891, they came to Klcllonogh. She brought with her the charm of manner and the warm hospitalityof a truedaughter of the Yalley of Virginia. For nearly twenty-Five years they lived in what was 5 THE DRAGON, 1919 known as the Old House, the beautiful old colonial home with its spacious porches, wide halls, and large rooms, the original h4cDonogh School. lVhat delightful entertainments were held at the Old I-louse,', so Well adapted for that purpose! hffr. and hflrs. Smith had the school boys in groups to supper, to play games, and the older boys of the school naturally drifted over to enjoy the porches in summer or the open fires in winter whenever they had a spare hour. At these little parties no boy was younger than Nfr. Smith, no boy entered more into the spirit of the evening or fun than he, and no laugh was more cheery than his. It became a custom years ago for them to entertain the grad- uating class each year, and these delightful parties were looked forward to far in advance. As hfliss Nfary Lyle Smith grew to womanhood she ably assisted in this part of the social life at hfIcDonogh which meant so much to the boys and the younger teachers. So much for the lighter and brighter side of their home life. hrlany a boy in need of advice or in boyish trouble knew where to go. Let there be sickness or sorrow, the Smiths were there to help and comfort. VVhen the boys left NfcDonogh they came back to talk things over with lV1r. and Nfrs. Smith, and into their homes they went as dear friends when death or trouble had entered. For some time the Alumni had realized that their admiration for the whole Smith family was too great not to be shown in some appropriate public manner, so it was decided that on Founderls Day, November 21, 1917, it should be done. The committee selected a very handsome hall chime clock. This was secretly taken to hlcDonogh, set up on the platform the night before, curtained from view, and during the exercises was presented. On a silver plate attached to the case is the following engraved inscription: Presented to MR. AND MRS. WILLIAM BALLARD SMITH by the Faculty and Alumni of McDonogh School as a Token Of Appreciation for Thirty Years' Splendid Work Done by Them at McDonogh, 1887-1917 November 21,' 1917 It was a happy occasion. The h'lcDonogh boy gave vent to his feelings for the Smiths, and they in turn were made happy in knowing the richness and satisfaction of appreciation. 6 THE DRAGON, 1919 A valuable life is ended--all too soon. VVould that his influence could have been spared to NIcDonoghl He made life better, richer, purer, for many. No work could be finer. No tribute could be greater than the feeling of loss which is felt by those who have the love and welfare of NIcDonogh in their hearts. All that was mortal lies at rest near his old home in Virginiag but his in- Huence as man, teacher and friend will be reflected in the lives of many lXflcDonogh boys for vears to come. f sz .

BRANDAU THE DRAGON, 1919 History of the Class of 1919 N the year 1912 a solitary athlete decided to start to prepare and to perfect a team which would make a name for itself wherever it went and one which would be helpful and hard working as well as hard-playing. He thought for a long time about the number of members he should take to make up the team At last he decided to let circumstances establish the number, as he could not tel at that early date just how many athletes would make the best and strongest combination. This sturdy beginner was Hlkeyll h-lichael. He was a strong, clean-limbed bright boy, and he was starting early in order to have more time to work and plan for the success of the team and himself. He soon proved by his example and ability that he was well able to cope with the different problems and difficulties which would arise during the term of practice or during the next seven years. He forged his way to the head of the school and was on the way to making a name for himself on the athletic field of the school as he will make a name for the team and school on the field in the game of LIFE, which is the game for which he was practicing and working so hard. In 1913, when Ikey was in smooth-running order, he took a new member into the work, and together they practiced and labored to prepare for the other members whom they knew would soon join them. The new athlete was fresh and eager, and he brought new hope and energy into the work and turned to with a will to help perfect the team. Although he did not forge ahead in his school work as rapidly as Ikey had, he proved to be a steady and reliable aid to lkey. This new boy was Billy', Buck. The pair, Ikey and Billy, carried on the work as swiftly and smoothly as possible. They had many faults and failures in this year, but they learned and profited by their mistakes, and they also learned what things were good for them and which ones were bad. They were hope- fully Waiting, working and looking forward to the day when they would be able to take in more members who were made ofthe right stuff and who would stay with them and help work for the beneht of the team. The fall of 1914 came in with a rush and a vigor that made one feel like accomplishing great things, and it brought with it a few of the members so 20 THE DRAGON 1919 long looked for. There were five in this group of strong, healthy, vigorous young men who had been strengthened by the spirit of the weather which had put vim,' and pepH into them. They came and shook hands all around with our two beginners, and then after having given this sign of their intention to push the team ahead they got down to work swiftly and sturdily. The comrades who joined the beginners were Archie7, Eden, Hlohnniev Eggen, 4'Schoene Harvey, Georgie,' Gantt and Nlarts Bayly. They all turned to with a will and to accomplish the task as set before them by the two beginners and as improved by their suggestions. Of this number Archie Eden soon showed that he would give us all a little light in the school end of our work. He did, and it was a hard matter to decide which was the better, he or Tkey. WVhile Archie was forging to the top in school there was another one of our comrades who was gaining the good will and esteem of all the members. This was hffarts, and he kept on getting his prestige until he was chosen to be the leader and head of the team. He was unanimously elected president in school and leader of the team. The others, Johnnie, Schoene and Georgie, settled down to be sturdy and reliable athletes as had Billy. By this time the team was recruited to a little over half its full strength. There were still some others who should belong to the team and who would soon become members. They came in with a cheer in 1915, and as most of them were pretty well experienced the team went along smoothly and without any mishaps until the day when it was to start on the great game of LIFE. The new members were Drafty Asehemeier, Opie Brandau, 'fSammy hloore, Sue', Randolph and ChauneeyH Tuttle. They sprang to their places with such zeal and with such a determination of purpose that the whole team benefited by having their help, and surged forward smoothly and victoriously both on the athletic field and in the sehoolroom. Opie soon proved his worth on the held and was the best athlete in the combination. He worked his way to the top in all school athletics and at the same time worked with the team to prepare it lor thc game which was to start Very soon. The other members all Worked together, and although individually they did I1Ot turn out to be quite the equals of lkey, Archie, Gpie and Klarts in the school or on the field, they all were a credit to the team and to the school and they came pretty near the limit set by the other four. 2l THE DRAGON,-1919 The team was now recruited to its full strength of twelve, so there would be no more stopping and inspecting of new material for membership. It proved trustworthy and efficient, so that when the time came for it to take the responsibility of being the leader of the school the teachers, who were its coaches, had faith in its ability to lead and to help by its example this grand old place. In the last year of its preparation it proved as never before its worth, and every man on the team worked to perfect himself and so to help the team that it would be such a one that h'lcDonogh could be proud of. It struggled to perfect itself, knowing that as it left the home grounds it would have to play on a much harder field, where the stands are packed with spectators and much is expected of the players. Wie, the members of the team, are now prepared to go out into the game of LIFE, and wherever we are, wherever we go and what- ever we do the old team spirit and the hfcDonogh remembrances, lessons and advices will always be our standby in the game. lfVe all have this one highest aim and purpose to make of ourselves such men as the school shall be proud to have under its care to make the greatest name possible for this grand old team. As they fought their way to the top at school through many hardships, so will they Hght in whatever they may undertake after they have launched forth into the world where the best men come out on the top. The team had its faults and trials, but altogether it was a strong one and will always hold up the name of the school which has meant so much to it and which has given it the chance and training that is coveted by so many and that can only be given to a few. it V .ferr .6 .gg - 'asa t Qfrifwxwll-fvllff foo ' rf- ' r N: 22 x'UI1l1R1CI1I tunmrlt n .

The Germans had been driven back to the Rhine defenses, and our guns were now engaged in hammering away at them. I was sitting in the doorway of my dugout, smoking and reminiscing of by-gone days, when our officer came along and told us to get ready to go over the top. 'We were all excited and nervous-waiting for the signal. It came at last, and we swept over the German trenches as a flood sweeps over the land. We left nothing standing-everything was wiped out in our victorious advance. VVe had driven about ten miles into the German lines, and were taking prisoners by the hundreds. Imagine my surprise when, on passing a wounded German officer, I recognized one of my classmates, Otto Brandau. At first I was not allowed to speak to him, but after I told my superior officer who he was he permitted me to speak to him, warning me, however, of the penalty I would have to pay if I let him escape, as he was a big prize. He and I then went into an uninhabited dugout and talked over our past school days. I learned from him he had come over to Germany to study con- structing engineering, and that the German Government had seized him and put him in the Imperial Army. I-le had fought in various battles, had been promoted to be a colonel, and had been awarded the Iron Crosses of the First and Second Orders for his bravery and for his knowledge of warfare. I-le went on to tell me how he had often met Alu Aschemeier, who was also in the German Imperial Army. He had been awarded different medals for bravery and had fought on several fronts. The last he had heard of him was that he had been shot for disobeying orders. As Brandau was wounded, I got permission to go to the hospital back of the lines to have the wounds treated. While I was looking about the hospital who should l meet but Xlartin Bayly and his old chum and crony, klohn liggen. liayli' and lflggCI1 had both studied engineering after leaving Xlcllonogh, and had made quite a name for themselves. Bayly had been promoted to :1 captaincy 29 THE DRAGON,1919' on his arrival in France, and was getting along well. Eggen had been offered a commission, but he had refused it, as he would have had to part from his friend Bayly. They were in the hospital seeing some wounded soldiers who were in their company. The four of us, Bayly, Brandau, Eggen and I, after seeing that Brandaufs wounds had been properly attended to, sat down and had a pleasant chat about hIcDonogh. They had not seen any of their classmates, but had heard that Sammy hIoore, another crony of theirs, was somewhere near their sector, with a rank of lieutenant-colonel. The splendid training he received While he was at h'IcDonogh had stood him in good stead. He had been decorated with the Legion of Honor and the hrlilitary hiedaille for conspicuous bravery. After several hours, which were spent in talking over our past days, we parted-Bayly and Eggen to their company, and Brandau and I back to our trenches, where I turned Brandau over to the guard. Since then Ihave not heard of him, whether he has escaped or not, I do not know. About six weeks later, one fine morning, I Was called up before my superior officer and was told that I could have six Weeks furlough. Imagine my delight- I could go back to America, see my old friends and the good old school once more! On my arrival in America, after I had passed the necessary examinations, I got off the boat and was on my Way to a restaurant, asI Was nearly famished. I happened to cross a street Where they were fixing up the street car lines and my eye was caught by one of the laborers, who Was supposedly busy digging up the earth between the tracks. In order to get a better look at this certain individual, as his figure looked strangely familiar to me, I walked over to Where he was digging. As I got there he looked up and lol it was Ikey hlichael. Ihappened to know the man in charge of the gang in which Klichael was working, and got permission from him to take lXIichael aside and have a talk with him. After I had told him everything I knew about my other classmates, he finally began talking about himself. It seems that, after he had entered high school, preparatory to going to Yale, he found that it Was a hard thing to Work his Way through college, and when he at last got to Yale he had to work so hard in order to meet expenses that he fell to the bottom of his class. 30 THE DRAGON, 1919 He had gone to Yale with the intention of becoming a civil engineer, but had repeatedly drifted down and down until the best he could do was to hire himself out as a laborer. I was greatly astonished at what he had said, because while he and I were at lNfIcDonogh he had always proved to be the brightest and smartest fellow in the class. I then told him that I would keep on the lookout for a better position for him, and that as soon as I found one I would let him know. As I was hungry, I asked him to direct me to a good restaurant. He pointed out a capacious- looking place to me, and I said good-by, feeling very sorry that one of my class- mates should drop as low as that. As I drew near I looked in the window and saw on it, in large letters, Harvey,s Restaurantf' I was puzzled at first, as the name was familiar to me, and the thought came to me that it might be another of my old schoolmates, VVilliam Harvey. VVhile I was standing there, meditating, the proprietor came to the door, and lol it was NVilliam Harvey. I asked him why he was in such a profession, and he confessed that since he had left McDonogh he had never been able to get enough to eat and had finally decided to go into the eats business himself. I was no more overjoyed to see him than he was to see me, so he took me inside and Htreatedn me, as I had done him many times while at school. IVC talked over olden times together, and he made me tell him about the fellows I had seen while I was in France. YVhen I started to tell him about Michael he laughed, and said that he often saw him. Wfhile I was eating-I was sitting near the orchestra-I happened to see two faces that looked familiar. I asked him who they were. He laughed and said: Don't you recognize them? IYhy, they are 'Chaunceyl Tuttle and II-'illiam Randolph. He then took me over to where they were, and we talked over past days, I learned from Tuttle that after leaving hlcDonogh he had tried to go through college but had been unsuccessful. :Xfter wandering around the country he had come to Harx'ey's, and had accepted a position as head of the orchestra, not because hc wanted to, but because it was the best he could do. 31 IHE DRAGON, 1919 Randolph told me that he also tried to go through college after leaving hfIcDonogh and had been unsuccessful, and had fallen back to his old habit, that of playing the cornet-he was a wonderful player-and had got a position as solo cornetist. He also had finally drifted to Harvey's, and was now occupied in tooting the cornet. Between the pieces Tuttle and he played several selections for me that brought back happy memories, such as 'LAll Hail to Our lVIcDonogh, When I'm an Old Alumnus,'l and many others. I said good-by to them and started to go in search of a room. BeforeI got far, however, Harvey called me back and told me to go to No- Wall Street and I would be given a surprise. I thanked him and, dismissing the subject of getting a room from my mind, set out for No. -- Wall Street. On my way there who should I meet walking down the street but George Gantt? I was very surprised to see him, and took him into a cafe near by and made him tell me about his doings. He told me that he was now occupied as private secretary to W. H. Bell, the well-known banker. His experience in the office at McDonogh proved so valuable that he had not found it hard to get a position as secretary. We talked over old times together and he told me many interesting things about the school. He had recently been down to Maryland on a visit to some of his relatives, and had stopped off at IVIcDonogh for a day. He told me that everything was changed except the 'fOld IVIan, who was still running the print- ing office. He said that although the '4Old Nlanw was much older, he was still able to go the rounds in golf and still gave out buds and Happlesl' to the old boys who came to see him. He went on to tell me how the printing office had changed-instead of feed- ing the press by hand, they had two self-feeding presses, two linotype machines and a big press to print pictures. All this brought back memories to me when I used to run THE WVEEK off by motor and had to feed it by hand. I was very glad to hear of the change, because I knew that the work was much easier on the boys' eyes than formerly, when I was in the printing office. Although I would have imagined he liked the position as private secretary, he repeatedly said that he was going on the stage. I looked wise and smiled, 32 THE DRAGON, 1919 but nevertheless it came true, for several years later heading the bill at one of the big theaters of New York Was the name George Gantt, the celebrated comedian, etc. I said good-by to him and started out once more for No. -- Wall Street, and eventually got there. I Went in and the first person I met was William Buck. I was certainly glad to see him, as I hadn't seen him for several years. I learned from him that on leaving school he had gone to Hopkins and taken up mining engineering as a profession. He had risen in life, and was considered one of the best mining engineers in the country. He Went on to tell me of a plan he had made. He Was going to give Mc- Donogh 5,500,000 in return for the wonderful training he had received While there. I was very much surprised, and also very pleased, becauseI knew if any school deserved it, it was McDonogh. I left him with the hope that some day I Would also be able to give something to the school which had done so much for me for five long years. The reader has by reading this Prophecy had a chance to see the doings of each member of the class, after leaving school, except the Prophet, who from modesty refrains from saying anything about himself. But, although some have achieved fame and some have not, on the Whole it has been a glorious class- this Class of 1919. 1039 sr 0 my ' I kia? gg eefgo 0 I ao e x 35 THE DRAGON 1919 Senior Class Elections VVho has done most for 1919-Eden, Gantt.

They fought hard against overwhelming odds and at first did not take much interest in athletics. These two are known as Smitty,' for VV. B. Smith and Doug for Douglas. In 1914 one more student joined hands with the two founders. He started in fighting hard with Smitty close beside him. He did not take as much interest in athletics as did the other two. This one was known as '1SpibM for Bryan. As the big three fought on the way became easier and they formed a strong foundation for their future lives. In 1915 there were ten new and energetic students added to the three. Out of this group three took an interest in athletics. These were 'LCrazyU Fidel, jake', Kinsey and Hokie Horchner. The three started in to do their work with whole heart and soul. The two leaders, Spib and Smitty, found two new opponents to battle with in studies. These two were Nutty hf1cShane and jew Geitz. One of the ten took an interest in Fords. He likes to take them apart and put them together again with enough left over for two. This highly honored student is known as Gasoline Gusn or A. Friend. In the same year came Sleepy,' Storke, Chesty,' lVIcKnight, Nig Norris and PercyH Snyder. In 1916 two more students were added to the industrious thirteen. These were L'Dago', Otto and Butch7' Ingham. Dago started out by leading the class, leaving the rest of the class struggling on behind, while Butch stayed with the rest ofthe class and became sociable. The class now having a hrm founda- tion, the better part of its members became very interested in athletics. The ones that made the best showing on the athletic field were jake, Hokie and Crazy lidel. In 1917 one more industrious student joined the growing fifteen. He stepped forward and started the fight with the other part of the team. He is known as Clamfoot', Schneider. A As 1918 rolled around we see Smitty, Spib, jake, Hokie, Crazy, Nig, Butch, Nutty, Sleepy and Gasoline Gus all taking a great part on the football field- Smitty, jake, Hokie and Butch on the team, the others helping to make the team what it was. In the baseball season of 1918 we find jake, Crazy, jew, Doug, Nutty and Butch all lighting hard for the team. ,lake and Crazy were on the team. while the four others helped the team along. The basket-ball team of 1918-19 was well represented by jake, Holcie, Crazy. blew and Butch. 'S CLASS OF 1920 THE DRAGON, 1919 Class LUCIUS C. BRYAN CARL H. EDEL FREDERICK VV.

SINCLAIR IRA VON BRIESEN -li THLETI ATHLETIC EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE FGGTBALL THE DRAGON, 1919 Review of the Football Season RACTICE started immediately after school began in September. 'We had practice for over a month, which consisted of falling on the ball, charging up and down the field, and running off signals. Our first game scheduled was with the Gilman Country School at Roland Park, on Saturday, October 19th. Saturday, October 5th, the Spanish Influenza, which was raging in and about Baltimore at the time, broke out at hf'lcDonogh. Several more cases broke out in the next few days and the school was placed in quarantine, thus necessitating the canceling of the Gilman-hlcDonogh game. The influenza came and went long enough for us to play and be defeated by Polytechnic Institute, the score being Polytechnic 21, McDonogh O. On account of the lack of practice lXflcDonogh lost the game, but showed the football fans that she had a team to be reckoned with. After suffering defeat at the hands of Polytechnic the team buckled down to hard practice, and when they encountered Klarstorfs eleven at McDonogh on VVednesday, November 6th, they were quite ready and defeated Nlarston to the tune of 28 to O. Overhead work and long end runs were the cause of hflcDonogh making her points. I On November 16th Donaldson visited hlcllonogh and was overwhelmed, 87 to O. Again h'lcDonogh's points were scored by the aerial route and also by tearing large holes in their opponents, line. During the latter part of the game Coach Bowman put in nearly all the second string men. The last game of the season, November 22d, found us at lliest Forest Park, where in a very ragged and loose game we defeated Friends, 20 to 13. Our team was overconfident, which caused many breaks throughout the game and resulted in our opponents scoring. ln spite of the one defeat by Polytechnic, the football team of 1918 deserves great credit, and too much praise and honor C211111Ot be given to Coach Bowman, who helped to make the team what it was.

THE DRAGON, 1919 p The 1918 Baseball Season RACTICE started on the 19th of Nlarch. Coach Bowman had about twenty-five players out trying for the team. Twelve games were scheduled, the first being at Tome, April 10th. Owing to rain and cold weather this contest was postponed until the following week. The second game was carded with the lvlt. St. Joseph Preps., at hic- Donogh, April 13th. Owing to snow this was postponed until lvlay 1st, On the 17th of April a team was chosen to go to Tome and play the first game. hflcDonogh played this game under a handicap from the loss of pitcher Greason and outfielder lVIcCabe. Greason was ill at the time and NIcCabe was busy preparing to enter the Naval Academy. Moxley was selected to twirl, and he did very well for his first try-out. Tome was Victor by a score of 8 to 1. Not discouraged, McDonogh was ready for the next game on the program. The next game was booked with Donaldson, at NlcDonogh, for April 20th, which was Visiting Day. After an inning and a half had been played in the rain the game was called. In the next game lVIcDonogh came back with a 6-to-4 victory over Franklin High. This was a ragged game, there being fourteen boots made altogether. The game was played at Reisterstown, on li'ranklin's diamond. The Polytechnic aggregation was McDonogh,s next opponent. h'lcDonogh was held hitless by Nesbit, who meantime was starring with the club, poling out a homer, a double and two singles, out of four trips to the plate. The final count was 8 to 1, hlt. St. .loseph's was downed in a slow game, played on the home diamond, by the score of 6 to 3. This game showed McDonogh,s real fighting spirit and strengthened the team for further contests. Captain Dick Greason left McDonogh, Moxley took up the burden of flinging, and George McCabe was elected to the captainship. Dunham canceled again. Same old excuse! No use scheduling games with thcm. ln a weird seven-inning competition KlcDonogh defeated Donaldson. at Sl THE BASEBALL TEAM THE DRAGON, 1919 Ilchester, hfaryland, 26 to 12. No box score was kept of this game. It simply fattened the batting average of the team and gave them a fine practice g21I'11C. Playing .an altogether better brand of ball, McDonogh defeated Loyola with lvfoxley on the mound. h'lcFadden started it for Loyola, but was relieved in the latter part of the third inning by Holeu. On the first ball pitched by iVfcFadden, Sammy Price was hit in the eye when the ball glided off his bat. He retired in favor of Douglas. Score-hffcDonogh 9, Loyola 4. Gilman 18, McDonogh ll The team just went to pieces. Every player' had an off-day. One hit was secured off Hamill's delivery. Gilman collected fifteen safeties off Moxley's curves. Gilman was in the best of form, NIcDonogh sound asleep. Nlay 17th the lVIcDonogh outfit journeyed to Towson and was defeated 6 to 5. It was a peppery contest and Towson didn't win without hard fighting. In the eighth inning Wheeler lifted a Hy over hfIerchant's head into a patch of briars, and made the circuit for the winning run. The 22nd of hffay found the City College warriors at hffcDonogh. Vifhen they returned they had a game chalked up to their credit. Score-City College S, McDonogh 3. B. Thomas started on the mound. Vilhen he got in danger in the seventh stanza he was relieved by Tommy Thomas, his brother. In the eighth and ninth periods, City counted six times, running away with the game. In the last game of the season McDonogh scored a victory over Friends School, at iNest ForestvPark, the latterfs ground. This was a well played and fast game. In the fourth inning four hits and two errors netted NfcDonogh four runs. hIcDonogh registered again in the seventh. The final count was 5 to 2. hfloxley allowed the Quakers five scattered hits. Owing to some misunderstanding Xfarston canceled the game staged for May 29th. A summary of the games will show that KlcDonogh scored 63 runs, while the total runs scored by all opponents netted 73. KIcDonogh won five games out often played. Considering the handicap of the loss of Greason and Xlcfabe, it was a successful season. The players and their positions were: C. I-I.

NIACCUBBIN THE DRAGGN, 1919 Review of the Basket-ball Season 1918-19 CDONGGH is steadily improving year by year, as shown by reviewing the last season. The school and team can be well satisfied by the record shown below. When practice started on December 2d the prospect was pretty dark fora suc- cessful season, owing to the lack of a coach, but nothing daunted Captain Brandau and he went to work with a will and had the team in good shape for the game on the 10th with Polytechnic Institute, in Baltimore. KTcDonogh lost by a score of 42 to 19, not for lack of spirit and fight, but, as said before, on account of our being unable to procure an efficient coach. It was not until after our Christmas holidays that we got a coach. The result was immediately apparent in the showing made by the team when they came up against the Emerald Athletic Club on the home floor January 11th. The Emeralds had a hard time and had to fight for all their points. The result of the game was a victory for them by a final count of 20 to 16. Our next game was on the 15th with Friends School, on their court in Balti- more. They won the game in the closing period with the score 27 to 14 in their favor. NIcDonogh was still on the outs when on the 20th Loyola walked away with things on their own court. The North Calvert Streeters had an easy time, allowing lNIcDonogh to score only 12 points while they rolled up 64. Nlc- Donogh was anxious to see the result of the return game, but on account of some misunderstanding Loyola did not show up. On the 24th we split honors with Polytechnic Institute in the return game of the season, on the home floor. The varsity score was 32 to 24 for the En- gineers, while our reserves had 37 points to their opponents, 16. hfIcDonogl1 started the game on the jump, scoring the first and last points, but Polytechnic held her own by a close margin. The reserves were outclassed, for lVIcDonogh caged baskets at will until the closing period, when Polytechnic braced up and scored her points. The lXfIcDonogh basketers had a soft time on the 31st with the Nlarston 56 THE BASKETBALL TEAM THE DRAGON, 1919 quintet, the score being 70 to 9, on the formerfs court. The losers were unable to penetrate the McDonogh defense, scoring only three tallies from the field. On February 1st NIcDonogh ran up against the Alumni. The veterans were unable to do a thing, losing by a final count of 48 to 10. R-fIcDonogh had things easy on the 7th, winning handily from Park School by a 63-to-21 score, on the loser's court. Throughout both periods h1cDonogh caged baskets at will both from the field and foul line. Un the 12th lV1cDonogh set a new high water-mark in local scoring when she defeated Park School in the return game of the season by a 92-to-2 count. Substitutions slowed up our team play in the last period, preventing it from reaching the century mark in scoring. By this time hflcDonogh was showing a decided improvement in handling the ball, but on the 15th she had a hard time with the Donaldson five, winning only by a close margin. The final score was 30 to 27. NlcDonogh always enjoys a game with Donaldson, not only from the hard fight she always gets but for the sportsrnanlike conduct of Donaldson's squad. The reserve team also suffered defeat at the hands of McDonogh by a score of 31 to 4. The school's reserves had things easy throughout the game. 1XflcDonogh suffered defeat for the second time at the hands of Friends School on the 26th, by a score of 30 to 19, on the latter's court. Our reserves saved the day by their victory over the Friends' reserves with a score of 19 to 16. hf1cDonogh was hampered by the sick list, but put up a strong game from beginning to end. The next two games were scheduled with Nlarston and the Saint Paul Schools respectively, but were canceled by the former teams owing to their sick list from Spanish Influenza. On NIarch'4th the season was brought to a close. Our basketers went to Ilchester and were defeated by Donaldson in the return game of the season by a score of 34 to 23. After the game lVlcDonogh felt that she had fought a good fight and the members of the team, all of whom will be here next year, with the exception of Captain Brandau, look forward to an exceedingly successful season. The summary below shows that we won six games and lost seven and have 430 points against the 338 points of our opponents. Our reserves have a clean 58 THE DRAGoN, 1919 record, having won all the games they played and scoring 87 points while their opponents scored only 36. Coach hflaeCubbin deserves rnuch credit for the showing his team made, and next year h'lcDonogh will be in the first rank among basketers. The players of the first five and their positions are: Center, Captain YV. O. Brandaug right forward, A. Horchnerg left forward, C. Edelg right guard, L. D, Kinsey, left guard, YV. Ingham. The players of the second five and their positions are: Center, VV. Buckg right forward, H. B. Davis, left forward, H. E. Rein, right guard, G. N. Belt, left guard, F. W.

RANDOLPH, '19 THE DRAGON, 1919 Dragon Editorial N compiling the third volume of this book the editors have tried to collect everything that might be of interest to the members of the school, and especially to those ofthe Senior Class. Although THE DRAGON is not strictly a class book, yet the major part of it is devoted to the interests ofthe graduating class. For THE DRAGON is a memory book, to recall in later days the pleasant experiences passed here in our last year at NlcDonogh, VVith this idea in mind the editors have compiled this book. The school has always been divided in regard to the question of humorous material, some claiming it is the only part of the book worth reading, others saying it distinctly lowers the tone and dignity of 'THE DRACEON. Vlfe have listened to both and have done our best to make the quality better, and the quantity less, of our humorous section. lVe grant you it may not be howlingly funny, but it may serve to produce a chuckle now and then, and that is all we want. We offer this issue of THE DRAGON as a testimonial to the Class of 1919, and we trust that now, and in the future, a perusal of its pages will always kindle a flame of pleasant remembrances, or recall some happy experience ofthe past. 6 .1 THE DRAGON BOARD THE DRAGON, 1919 The Week I-IIS is the title of the little four-page boys' paper published by kIcDonogh School. Its first issue appeared July 7, 1883, ten years after the school opened. It is now, therefore, rounding out the thirty-sixth year of its life. This makes it one of the oldest schoolboy publications in the country. Its editors, writers, reporters, type setters, pressmen and mail clerks are and have always been boys of the school. THE VVEEK is sent regularly to the mother or guardian of every boy in the school. As it contains every month the record of each boy's standing in schol- arship and every Week his record in conduct, it becomes in effect a weekly letter to the boy's friends concerning his progress and behavior. Other matters of interest, such as -the dates set for Commencement Day and other public days, lectures, addresses, entertainments, and the like, are recorded, and serve to keep the school and the boy's parents in unusually close touch. The boys, mothers or guardians are the only persons, speaking generally, other than the boys themselves, to Whom the paper goes free. Others who get it pay for it. Naturally nearly all its subscribers are old McDonogh boys, These are kept informed, through its columns, of happenings at the school and ofthe fortunes of their former schoolmates and other IVIcDonogh alumni. Many of them read regularly every Word in the paper and raise Cain with the mail clerk if their copy comes to them an hour late. hlany of them declare that THE XYEEK, with its notes concerning the Old Boys' rise in the world and its record of the honors that have come to them, has been a stimulating influence in their livesg and some even declare that this little paper, more than any other one agency, is responsible for the very unusual interest of the Old Boys in the school and for their truly remarkable love for it. rlwlll-I XYEEK has some rather special features. Unlike most school p.:blica- tions. it seeks no advertisements. Xkiith its income from subscribers and its printing of catalogues and addresses and miscellaneous papers for the school. it about pays its way, and is content with that. It accepts no articles on general subjects. prints no selections. no jokes. lt lrowns on any attempt at line writing. 115 THE DRAGGN, 1919 It aims to set down in simple words what is going on at the school. Each writer signs what he writes, and writes only of his games, his Work in shop or class' room or field, his sports-things he knows about and is interested in. It was these special features of THE XVEEK'-DO ads., no fine writing, writing on things the writer knows about-that won the Commendation, one might say enthusiastic commendation, of the late Major Venable, of Baltimore, of Presi- dent 'Woodward, of the St. Louis Nfanual Training School, of Albert Shaw, founder and editor of The Review of Reiviewr. The same features caused the head of a famous boys' school near Boston to take THE VVEEK as the model after which he fashioned somewhat closely his own school paper. For many years Nfr. Thomas P. Perkins, of Baltimore, has given annually to the three best boy writers for THE 'WEEK three handsome prizes, each a set of valuable books. H 6,1-xt if-ww M ll' - - 1 ' Nf ses, 66 Rrrom.

DURBIN STEXVIXRT BILLB-TIRE Born December 2, 1903 Entered McDonogh September 1914 Died February 4, 1919 80 THE DRAGGN, 1919 In Memoriam CHARLES REGINALD ANDERS Born January 5, 1903 Entered N1cDonOgh September 1916 Died june 22, 1918 Nl THE DRAGON, 1919 Military Activities CDONOGH SCHOOL has had military training for several years in the past, but there has been no attempt made to write up or review the work until the present time. For that reason we must ask our readers not to judge too harshly this first attempt to bring to their notice the good work of this department. So much has been accomplished by the iive successive com- mandants, under whom the boys have worked for the achievement of those things that are best in life, that it would be almost impossible to tell of it all in detail. We will, therefore, do our best to give a faint idea of what we have accomplished in this line, through the merits and with the help of our splendid instructors. The Military Department of lVlcDonogh School has in the past, due to the short periods allowed for this work, been greatly handicapped. It has been possible to obtain only a general idea of military science, but what has been learned has been learned well. Military science was established in this chool to instill in the student a patriotic feeling and love for his Creator and country, and a definite aim and ideal in life. The lives and work of the boys who have gone out from lVlcDonogh prove that the ideal held by the originator of this work has been gained and is being upheld. In 1914, through the efforts of Second Lieutenant W. A. N. Bowland, United States Army, our first commandant, we were issued riiies by the United States Government. The military work, which is monotonous at best, was greatly stimulated by the distribution of these rifles. VVe were taught the rudiments of drill under arms, guard duty and the use of the bayonet. It was hard work for the commandant, much harder than for the boys. They thought they were having a hard time, but the man or men who had to teach these raw recruits, and some of them mere boys, had a very big job on their hands. During Lieutenant BoWland's command, 1914-1915, and part of 1916, calisthenics were introduced in connection with the military work, Some of the more advanced forms of drill were also introduced-namely, battalion parade and review. In 1916-1917 Second Lieutenant Nl. A. R. Loth, V. NI. T., now captain, 102 Inf., 26 Division, A. E. F., who succeeded Lieutenant Bowland, instructed us in extended order drill. The battalion had about exhausted its energy on the old close order drilling to which it was accustomed, and was therefore eager and willing to learn, so the work progressed rapidly. . 82 THE DRAGON, 1919 In 1917-1918 Nlr. C. Fell, now top sergeant, Air Service, Aeronautic Radio, A. F.. F., and Mr. F. H. Johnston, commandants successively after Lieutenant Loth, carried on the work begun by the former instructors. A great deal was accomplished by lVlr. Fell during his short term as commandant, but, owing to the shortness of his term, he could DOI do all he would have liked to do. In January, 1919, Acting Second Lieutenant H. H. lXfIacCubbin, United States Nlarines, was made commandant. He has just been mustered out ofthe Marines and he is teaching all the new tactics that he can in the time allotted to the drilling. He is carrying on the good work begun in the guard duty, and is also making it very interesting, so that it is a pleasure to be at drill. He has also established a small signaling corps, which will steadily grow as the boys take interest in the work. At present we have as oflicers the following: A comrnandant, in charge of military work. A major, in charge ofthe battalion. Two captains, as company commanders. One first lieutenant adjutant. One first lieutenant, in charge of the band. Four lieutenants, as platoon commanders. One second lieutenant quartermasterfin charge of all stores, such as am- munition and riiles and all other equipment. Oflicers' meetings are held at frequent intervals, and it is at these meetings that non-commissioned oilicers have been appointed. All orders are originated by the commandant and published by the adjutant, and the entire routine is on the United States Army plan. VVe hope this year, through the National Board for Promotion of Rille Practice, to be able to qualify a large percentage of the students in the Junior Alarksman Course, and the equipment for target practice is rapidly being gotten ready.

WILLIANI ALLAN was a brave and eflicient ollicer ofthe Confederacy in General Jackson's corps. He served his general wisely and well as Chief of Ordnance for the corps. He is well known for his part in the war, but his life after the war was as great a credit as that during it. He is also well known for his Life of General Jacksonf, which was written from his affection for his superior officer, and which the critics have wisely judged worthy of appre- ciation both here and abroad. After the war he was a professor of mathematics at VVashington and Lee University, Lexington, Virginia. He wished to practice law and on Nlay 21, 1873, would probably have begun to do so had he not been called to a far greater work, that of training and teaching boys to be men, which he did in the highest and best way possible. He understood the value of debating and public speaking, and so in 1877 he lirst tried to start a debating society in the school. It was unsuccessful, as the boys did not take to the idea at first, but in the next year they got together and worked out a society which has been a very great success up to this day and we hope will always be so. lt was not until after Colonel Allan's sad death that the society adopted his name for its own. 'Several names had been suggested, but when this one was S5 THE DRAGON, 1919 brought forward it was instantly accepted, and it is still known as the Allan Debating Society. At first there were very few members in the society, but as it became better organized and was such a help to them more boys joined it until it gradually became larger. The boys eligible for the society are those in the three highest classes, and they must be elected by a two-thirds majority of the members present at the meeting in which they are nominated. There are now more than forty members in the society, and there are more being taken in as the year advances. In 1917 the society reached the highest mark of its good work. hfr.Cameron, who was the history teacher and also the critic of the society for that year, took an active part in the contests between the two camps. Under his teaching and Coaching some fine speakers were turned out and there were a good many very hard contests. Nlr. Brent succeeded Mr. Cameron, and he also did some good work for the society, bringing out some very good speakers in the short while he was with us. lVlr. Holbrook is now helping the society along in hffr. Brent's place, and he is following closely on the footsteps of his predecessor in making some fine debates and debaters. At the end of each year the three final contests are held. For the best debater a prize of a gold medal is presented by hffrs. Allan in memory of Colonel Allan. The society also gives to the second best debater a prize of a gold piece amounting to 32.50. lWr. Lyle, the Grand Old lVlan of hTcDonogh, presents to the best lecturer a silver medal, and the society also gives the second best 32.50 in gold. To the winner of the final declamation contest there is given 3252.50 in gold by the society. These contests are held on the last three meetings of the society for the year, and many of the members strive for the prizes and it is often very hard for the judges to decide which of them should win. 86 I YM.C.A.I V Y.

CLEVELAND HERE are times when our thoughts can hardly be expressed by our tongues, when our vocabulary fails to supply those Words which express the feeling that dominates the heart. And so, as words fail to express our feeling, we will plant this ivy as a token of our deepest gratitude to our Alma hlater. Here it will cling and grow, despite the storms of Winters, till it reaches that strength which will assure it final attain- ment of our expectations, which is to reach the top of this old Chapel wall. And even as the planted ivy stand we here together-Class of 1918. To- gether we have taken root in the soil of hlcllonogh, together We have been imbued with the principles that make sturdy men, staunch and true, to God and Country. Together We have learned those things that mean true worth, ideals that make a man look far beyond the petty needs of self-to think, as did the great hlcDonogh, of others he can help. Qur home on this hill is one of such beauty that it evokes the admiration of all who come here. Amidst surroundings congenial to mental and moral develop- ment, our minds have been enriched with longings to better ourselves so that in the time to come hflcDonogh will be as proud to call us her sons as we to call her Alma hflater. lt is, then, with varied feelings that We stand here today. Our hearts are sad, and yet the gladness that possesses us is inexpressible. VVe are sad because the time has come for us to leave forever our cherished home of many years, but glad because we now have a chance to prove all our many faults and failures of the past years were but stepping-stones to higher things. VVe see our errors all too well and wish that they had never been, but even as the strength of the ivy is proven by the storms it weathers, so shall We hold with firmer grasp our precious ideals from the knowledge of our former weakness. To you, our principal, teachers and friends, We offer our tribute of gratitude. We thank you for your patience with us in our strivings-for your devoted labor 9-1 THE DRAGON, 1919 for our good. Especially do we thank you for your tolerance with us during those periods of Weakness and downfall. To you, companions of our happy school life, Class of 1919, we commit the trust we love and hold most sacred, the leadership of the school. Profit bv our mistakes. Let each graduating class leave With the firm conviction that the old school is a little better for its having been here, and thus realize those hopes which we all have for this, our well-beloved horne, BlcDonogh. . .,, 'i-fx,-ggi: ji - - is 'f',.

We licked all the others, l rom the 5th to the 31'LlQ And xvlmitcwaslred the juniors, A thing too absurd. Then Captain l'3l'Z1I'lLl2il1 loilcd in the gym llllh the lnzlslict-hall team.

And now that our athletes Are out of the way, Let us turn to the youth To Whom Work is but play. lVe refer to our Samuel,', The head of the school, lVho can show any teacher That he's but a fool. But of all the great freaks That our class has possessed, The midget, George Gantt, Sure beats all the rest. But time won't permit us To go on forever, And so let us close Vtfith this one great endeavor To make this our class, Of nineteen one nine, The class of the ages, The class of all time. 102 THE DRAGON, 1919 Seniors Study all their lessons, Eat everything in sightg Never shirk their duty, In the school or outg are On time to school always and Right on top in everything.

The Sophomores are driving With hopes that soon they may, With a little extra striving, Reach that longed-for day. The Freshman Class is boiling On the four long years that count, And to this end theylre toiling To make their class win out. The Rookie Class is learning Their A B C's and such, For they know their time is turning- But for URABBLEH they know much.
