We realize that there are many im- perfections in this book, certainly many things which do not come up to our ideals and no doubt many more things which do not come up to yours. However, we are but mortals and are not perfect. Nevertheless, we have done our best to minimize these mistakes and to overcome the many difficulties as far as possible. Our constant aim has been to represent Old Miami as she has appeared to us during the past year, and to this end we have spared neither time nor money. The many pictures within these pages were intended to show every phase of college life to better advantage. ' To you, students of Miami, we desire this book to be a constant reminder of your labors and pastimes while in school. After you leave these historic halls the pictures of classmates and familiar scenes will keep you in spirit if not in body still at Old Miami. To you, students and friends of the Miami of the clays gone by, we wish to introduce the New Miami, so that you may see that while time goes by, your Alma Mater still grows and prospers. We owe a lasting debt of gratitude to Dr. Brandon, to Dean Hughes, and especially to Dr. Upham for their aid and advice during the year of preparation. We also wish to express our thanks to the Nicholson Printing 81 Mfg, Co. and to the Electric City Engraving Co. for the assistance and efficient work which they did for us. Although it is impossible to mention every- one who has aided us in art work or otherwise, we wish them to know that we appreciate their assistance. And now we present to you this book: if you are satisfied, it has fulfilled our fondest hopes; if not, we pray that the Class of 1912 will profit by our mistakes and leave a better book to Old Miami. i Seven University Calendar FALL TERM September 14 ............

Rah, Rah, Rah I Sixty-ciglzt A Clippillg from The uMars Heraldti noticed a particularly bright looking bunch of humanity which appeared associated with a particularly eminent bunch of red buildings of gigantic proportions. Their actions being unusual, I determined to observe them. One cloudy day they appeared to be extraordinarily active, be- having, in my estimation, decidedly queer. They hrst grouped them- selves around a tall pole-like affair on which floated a scrap of some gray material sprinkled with odd scarlet insignia. Soon another roaring bunch attached them from all sides, and after a terrific struggle in which both seemed to be trying to eat each other up, the wother bunchi, appeared to be uppermost though sadly dis- heveled. Then these two bunches, together with a larger motley mass, proceeded to an immense open space. The majority sat down on slanting structures and the rest, amidst deafening roars, proceeded to kick a small oblong object over numerous white lines, and since the first bunchathey of the less green aspect-seemed to get the object between the two posts the most, they received the loudest noises and appeared to be greatly elated. Next a huge round object was placed in the middle of the open IN THE course of my travels as a representative from Mars, I space and was suddenly attacked from both sides by the aforesaid btmches. It seemed to be an offending monster, for both sides vigorously pushed it away from their side of the area. But my particular bunch seemed to conquer the monster the most and were conseqently again rejoicing in an obvious manner. Sometime afterwards I followed both bunches and some stragglers into one of these red structures where they again fought over another small round object. It seemed to be quite hot judging from the way they threw it from them. I suppose it is well to have an object, for this bunch always did and, moreover, they had an aim, for they tried repeatedly to throw it in a small round ring. Indeed it was remarkable how many times my bunch succeeded. In. fact, I believe they were ahead this time, too. Not many moons later I saw this same bunch enter another structure where they met a bunch of charming females. A11 ap- peared to have a grand time judging from the gurgling sounds issuing from their mouths. Such were the principal things I observed about this extra- ordinary bunch. Truly remarkable! I shall continue watching them. MARJORIE R. HULICK. 521732-1117: c Seventy Sophomore Class Roll Baum, Vera Hall, Helen Mohler, S. D. Smith, Geo. B. Beldon, Gertrude Harley, Howard Morris, J. W.

Never before had quantity and quality been so delightfully blended. Dean Minnich said it was good that at last such a class had come unto them. Miss Logan and Professor Feeney were de- lighted to train a Class of such unprecedented ability. They linally had a class that could be depended upon to carry out efficiently their ideas. The nrst year passed pleasantly and the class showed signs of being a record breaker, but this fall only a part returned. The absent members had at this early date been demanded to fill positions as teachers all over the State. SO much for the ability of the class at the end of the first year of work. The Class began the second years work ready to fulfill the promise of success predicted in the first year. It is with all due modesty that we make this statement. It is good that such a Class should begin the work in the new Normal Building, for a beautiful building demands excellent teaching, and as Miss Logan can bear witness, the teaching has excelled expectations. Never before has a Class been able to remain sane and sensible and to teach at the same time. Plans with definite aims, logical reasoning and com- plete summaries seemed to be our delight. Then when the plans were put into practice, the Children were able to comprehend the aim, grasp the content of the lesson, and in the end give an intel- ligent summary. The results were all that could be desired and because of the results we were justly honored. The Chief fault of this remarkable Class is thatsat times they fail to live up to the motto of the school, KtGet the Attitudeii. Even if we fall short in this we hope some time in the future to be able to attain the delightful qualities of the llAttitudeli and leave out the undesirable ones. At many times, we know, we have been a sore trial to the long sufferingprofessors and critic teachers; But we .have always tried to do an especially brilliant piece of work after one of these unthoughtfnl lapses. This is our last year and we leave with regret, but long will we Cherish a happy remembrance for Miami. We know that upon our departure we shall leave a place hard to fill, but we have done our best to be such an example to the lggheslnnen that they will be worthy successors of such a class as ours: ' Eighty-seven $16 , WCEK man? bunny 3.32, Vlrkit 32:? 12, t . -ezg Eighty Sophomore Normal Class.

In quantity and quality this Class of blushing maidens has had no peer. The question which confronted the university was, Where did these wonderful creatures come from? As the fall term progressed a great change was noticed. Their heads grew until they resembled, in size, the prize pumpkins at county fairs. For information concerning this abnormal growth, see Professors Feeney and Heckert. But during exams. so much of their iisuperiiuosityii of knowledge had to be given out for the edihcation Of the professors that their heads underwent a sudden collapse, like a punctured balloon, and now they have returned to their normal size and resemble Bermuda onions. At any time you may see them wandering around the campus searching for more work, something to keep them busy. The pro- fessors insistently demand that they do not over-work but take care of themselves. Their Chief aim is to get the intangible ac- complishment called 11the attitude?

Five years have passed since the Manual Arts Department was opened up in connection with the Ohio State Normal College of Miami University, and the progress it has made in that time has been. wonderful. Thanks is due to Professor F. C. VVhitcomb for this forward movement, it being through his inHuence and ability that the department is what it is today. This year it has more than doubled itself in the number of students enrolled, and it is our hope and aim that it may keep on this rapid advance in the years to come. Last September another branch of the Manual Arts work was added to the department so we now have three two-year courses offered, each leading to a Special Teachers, Diploma. The hrst of these is the one for liTeaching and Supervising Manual Training? second for tTeaching Public School Art? and lastly, the new course for ilTeaching Domestic Science? In Miainiis centennial year, nineteen hundred nine, this depart- ment graduated its first Class. Diplomas in the Manual Arts work were granted to Messrs. W. C. Wilson, E. H. Petry, and H. E. Roberts, and Miss Dea Carr Murray received a diploma in. Public School Arts. As to the qualifications of these alumni for their efficient service in the American educational field of today, we can say nothing but the very best of them, for three of them are hold- ing very prominent poSitions while the fourth, Mr. Petry, is still with us, seeking for higher knowledge in the university work; and I feel quite sure that if the number of graduates this year-which will just about double that of last yearewill do just as efficient work when they begin to teach next fall, nothing but the very best will be said about them. Not only has the Manual Arts department been in the pro- gressive movement, but also the Manual Arts Club. Last year the meetings were held once a month, but this year we found it neces- sary and advisable to hold them every two weeks in order to get in the educational work that we were planning for. The work done at these meetings is along literary lines and problems which are re- lated to the Manual Arts subjects. Much interest is shown in the meetings and all have taken part when asked. We might consume pages telling of the progress our depart- ment has made, but as this would become tiresome, no doubt, we will conclude by saying to next years class that it is up to them to carry out the high standards of their predecessors; but we feel assured that this very promising Class wil make their hnal year as progressive as we have ours. H. G. R. Ninety-nine Miamils New Department NOTHER step in the progress of Miami has been marked this year by the inauguration of the department of Domestic Science. The course mapped out by the able and efficient head of the department, a Pratt graduate, covers the science and arts underlying the two chief heads, Cookery and Sewing. The work is consecutive and with proper equipment will give a finished course to the student. The first yearis work covers Psychology, English, Manual Training, Drawing, Physiology, Elementary Cook- ery, and Sewing. The second years work covers Dietetics, House Construction, Decoration and Sanitation, Millinery, Dressmaking, Economics, Bacteriology and Household Chemistry. Cookery has erroneously been named as the only branch of Domestic Science. Perhaps so because cookery gives a broader field for experiment than Sewing and Household Arts. The true meaning of the word Domestic Science is the Classified and applied knowledge of the home, including its duties and its pleasures. To perform these duties a knowledge of the underlying scientific prin- ciples must be had that the work may be done in the proper way. Cookery has behind it the sciences of Chemistry, physiology, and bacteriology. It is not enough to know how to cook, we niustknow why we cook. Modern scientists give us help in dietetics and value of foods. We have but to apply this knowledge in making up our dietaries. Ruskin says, llCookery means the knowledge of Medea and of Circe and of Helen and of the Queen of Sheba. It means the knowl- edge of all herbs and fruits and balms and spices, and all that is healing and sweet in the iields and groves and the savor of meats. H undred It means carefulness and inventiveness and willingness and readiness of appliances. It means the economy of your grandmothers; it means much tasting and no wasting ; it means English thoroughness and French art and Arabian hospitality; and, in fine, it means that you are to be perfectly and always homemakers and ladies as well as loafgiver'sf, Since the introduction of Manual Training as a necessary part. of education, sewing has been raised to an art of great importance, Outside of the practical advantage of being able to use the needle, the mental training through ear and eye has been proven to have a permanent effect on the character. The training of the hand makes it dextrous in other employments. Habits of thrift, clean- liness, patience and accuracy are inculcated; economy taught and inventive faculty developed. Attention and power of observation are increased by work in sewing. Sewing and attendant forms of household industries may be valuable in that they present strong sociological, economic, and ethical arguments for their introduction into our schools and col- leges. The educational world is waking up to the fact that Domestic Science and Household Arts are of greatest value to the school and college course. The well trained teacher has brought this about by correlation between general academic work, art, and handicraft. The logical development of the stitches in sewing is an insignificant aim in comparison with the logical development of the mind which follows. According to Socialistic writers, young women are Hocking away from the slavery of the kitchens, dining rooms, and sewing machines, to the shops and ofhces. If we could credit their fore- bodings, the disappearance of the American home would only be a matter of a short time. But we are in a new age of housekeeping. ment for industrial education, which is worldwide, the Claims of household technology are at the very forefront. Whatever pertains to economy and the reasons therefor, whatever makes for individual health, strength and happiness, whatever is destined to add to the general comfort and well-being of home life, all these things are of immediate concern to the homemaker. To provide and serve wholesome food day by day, to conduct successfully a modern sanitary home with all its appointments requires the application of no inconsiderable acquisition of scientihc knowledge; and this knowl- edge should be attained, in part at least, in the schools. In no wise should its attainment be left entirely to the exigencies of later ex- periences. The young woman of today should be able to conduct a home along with what other accomplishments she may attain. In the great move- She may or may not be an artist or a musician, she may or may not be a scientist, but she must make herself capable of making fit application of the latest data of scientific knowledge in the prac- tical management of a household. Schools of Domestic Science are multiplying rapidly and the ClC- mand for graduates far exceeds the supply. The Teachersi College of Columbia University; Simmons College, Boston; Pratt Insti- tute of Brooklyn; Margaret Morrison Carnegie School in Pittsburg; Chicago University; the University of Illinois; these and many others are doing for the home of the future what Harvard College did nearly three centuries ago for the public school system of the nation. One of the foremost topics of discussion at all the educational meetings of the country is the need of Domestic Science. So long as women and girls hunger as they do now for knowledge of house- keeping we need have no fear of the future American Home.

The term itPhrenoconi, is now an established one in the vocab- ulary of the Miami student body. It is a name of which each member of the organization is justly proud, for it stands for unity among those it represents. That which has conduced to this unity more, perhaps, than any other cause is the opening of the Phrenocon House, on Campus Avenue. It has served a splendid purpose in that it has become a center for the Phrenocon itboysii where they may gather at any time. ' There is nothing which so aids in bringing about unity in any group as the opportunity for occasional social gathering. Such tend to a closer fellowship, a greater interest in the mutual welfare of the body, and last but not least, the widening of ones horizon beyond mere selhsh interests. Moreover, because of the closer organization, scattered energies are being unified and directed towards the definite ideals of a higher scholarship and purer moral standards. Justly then, the Association feels that it no longer stands an isolated, cumbersome body. It is now receiving the social and political recognition that it can justly Claim, and which it has been so long denied. Since it includes so large a number of the student body, its Hundred and tlzirty-two problems are necessarin large in proportion, but because of the Vigorous, denfocratic spirit fostered, each member has a voice, and consequently an interest in the solution of them, Thus as the organization gradually becomes perfected it aids in harmonizing and bringing about a greater equilibrium among the various interests of the students at Old Miami and, despite the dangers and difficulties that beset it. it goes onward with bright hopes for the futurealoyal to its motto, $411 for Miami, Miami for All.

J. IDDINGS, COACH We were compelled this last year to choose a coach to take Mr. Fosterls place and ii- nally settled upon Mr. Iddings, one of Chicagds great halfbacks. Mr. Iddings came to us early in the fall and whipped the team into the best possible shape for our first big game with Reserve. We lost that game, but in no way felt that it was due to any failure of our coach to do his work. Mr. Iddings kept the men hard at work, won the next hard game, and showed himself an excellent coach. He talked little, but everything that he said counted. Before the close of the season the men had the highest respect for Mr. Iddings as a coach and gentleman. We are conhdent that he will come here next fall and, with the advantage of knowing his men from the very first, build up an excellent team. and one which will meet with few defeats. DR. YOUNG Dr. Young again appeared on the football held last fall arrayed in his famous baseball suit and ready to help whip the seconds into presentable order. His trials were even greater this year than last, because the squad was larger and more obstreperous. However, he tri- umphed over difficulties and produced a second team which gave the varsity two or three hard lights each week and which won a game from Miamisburg. It is scarcely necessary here to again recount the innumerable ways in which he has been of valuable assistance to the head coach and t0 the team. Although it is impossible for the school to show its acknowledgment of his services in any tangible form, we believe that in the hearts of all the students there is a deep and sincere appreciation of what he has done. In every organization there must be some one or few who fail to receive the praise due them for their loyalty, and as one of these, Dr. Young stands at the head of Miamiis list of liunrewarded football heroes? Hundred and forty THE FIRST SQUAD Hundred and forty-one Hundred and forty-two The Season Chronologieal OCTOBER Miami 35; Wilmington 2 I On October second the nrst varsity selection met and defeated the Wilmington eleven in the opening game of the season, Our opponents proved to be stronger and faster than last year, but Captain Rymer and his team sueeeded in puncturing their line for consistent gains. The individual playing of the men was good, especially that of Custenborder and Chapin, but as was to be expectedat that early date, there was a noticeable lack of team work and an unnecesary amount of fumbling. Miami 0; Reserve 3 The following Saturday Miami tackled Reserve at Cleveland in what proved to be one . 0f the fiercest and hardest fought games of the season. As the result of a weeks work on the part Of Coach Iddings, spent in unifying the team and in eliminating a few apparent defects, the players showed more of their old form. The game was fought desperately from beginning to end, each side struggling for every inch of ground. At no time was either team able to make consecutive gains through the lines or around the ends. Reservet's stone- wall defence especially proved impenetrable. Throughout, the latter team had some advan- tage because of the wonderful punting 0f Portman, but it was not suffleient to enable them to score a touchdown. Miami appeared strongest when hardest pressed and twice held on the ten-yard line, though outweighed ten pounds to the man. The nrst half ended in a O to 0 score and only in the last few minutes of the second half did Reserve win by a Huk-e drop kick from the 25-yard line after she had been held for downs. ON MIAMI FIELD Hundred and forty-threc Hundred. and forty-four Miami 45; Ohio 0 Determined to have revenge for the defeat at Cleveland, Iddings put his men through a hard we-ek,s work and on the sixteenth won from Ohio University on Miami Field by a score of 45 to O. In weight the teams were evenly matched, but the visitors were unable to stop our line smashes or to solve our trick plays. The backfield was in splendid condition and made gains at will through the line and around the ends. Two touchdowns were scored in the flrst six minutes of play and the half ended 29 to O. The second half was sim- . ply a repetition of the flrst, with the addition of a sensational run 0f 60 yards by Custen- border through a broken held for a touchdown. Miami 10; Marietta 0 On a slippery held and in a driving snowstorm, MiamiTs 01d rival, Marietta,- was beaten in the last game of the month. Captain Rymer and his men proved to be excellent Ttrnud horsesh and won by the margin of two touchdowns, both in the first half. The weather prevented the use of anything but Ttstraight football? The line, though outweighed, showed more stability and determination than at any previous time and blocked the Charges of the heavy Marietta backs. NOVEMBER Miami 0; Si. Louis 22 At St. Louis, on the sixth, the Crimson and White met her first serious defeat of the year. Little was known of the strength of the western team until it trotted onto the field. Fighting against tremendous odds, Miami succeeded in holding it to a 6 to 0 score in the flrst half, but in the second superior weight and punting ability began to count and 16 additional points were annexed. Custenborder and McCoy several times made substan- tial gains around the ends but failed to push the pigskin over for a touchdown. Our line- men did splendid work, several times holding St. Louis for downs near our goal line. Lind- say, Dockery and Painter starred for the opponents. THE SQUAD 10R Hundred and forty-zivc Hundred and fortyesix Miami 0, Notre Dame 46 The above score spells the result of an afternoon spent with llShortyll Longmanis liWild Irishil aggregation at South Bend, Indiana. In the words of Cap. Stone, llMianii had at last met a real football teamf, Fresh from their Victory over Michigan, by which they had won the Western Championship, Notre Dame came on the field confident that they could mow down Iddings men and, with the assistance of a red-headed individual named Miller and two giant tackles, they, in a measure, fulfllled their expectations. Nothing but admiration can be had for the magnificent machine which represented the Catholic school, and nothing but words of praise for the manner in which Miami played against men who outweighed them almost 25 potinds to the man and were their superiors in every department of the game. The Miami team fought as Miami teams should always light, and was playing the game when the whistle blew. The work of our men brought forth unstint'ed admiration from all who witnessed the game. The terrific Charges of Notre Dame were seemingly ir- resistible and could only be checked after gains of 10 to 15 yards. Once only did Miami come near scoring and that was just before the end of the first half when Levering by re- peated bucks took the ball to within a few yards of Notre Daniels goal, but was' stopped by the calling of time. The bright particular stars were Rupert, Brower, Prince, Engle, Harley, Ryiner, Eldredge, Chapin, McCoy, Custenborder, and Levering. Miami 6, o. of C. 10 In strong contrast with the work of the team at Notre Dame, was that displayed against Cincinnati in the last game of the season. After a somewhat varied season of victories and defeats, Coach Burchls lads, when they went to League Park on Thanksgiving Day, had yet to win their spurs in the opinion of many of their adherents. They accordingly llgot to- gether? played fifty per cent. better than at any previous time, gave a splendid exhibition of football, and won. Miami, over-eonhdent, and with two injured players, slumped, played much less football than she knew how to play, and lost. Levering and Harley were the only men who played'up to form and deserve great credit for the showing they made. The most sensational work of the day was done by the three hundred loyal rooters, who yelled and cheered and sang and never doubted but that Miami grit and determination would prove successful in the end. AT CINCINNATI Hundred and forty-scvcn Hundred and forty-eight The Team CAPTAIN THOMAS A. RYMER TACKLE A sketch of this years football captain must inevitably resolve itself into appreciation of the man and his services. The election of Rymer to lead the 1909 team was ample assurance to his fellow students that if loyalty and devotion to duty on the part of a captain could win games, then Miami would have one of the most successful seasons in her history. Always a hard player, he held his own against the best of them and at the same time won admiration be- cause of his fairness and manly work. He was especially strong on defence, and opposing players will remember him as the individ- ual who broke through the line and in Characteristic fashion gave 9 their backs the ttbear-hug . With such men as Tommy at the head of our college teams we cannot but command the respect Of other institutions. BROWER TACKLE , For four years Brower has been a stumbling block in the path of opposing teams. He is as strong as he looks and always handled his man in fitting fashion. Future generations of Miami students will not remember llBull, as a sprinter and a drop-kicker, which achievements only his Close friends can properly appreciate, but everyone can and does appreciate what he has done for Miami ath- letics and the spirit of loyalty which he has manifested in all his college activities. CUSTENBORDER LEFT HALF g llCussygi Four years ago that name became a part of the vocabulary of every Miami student and as such it is likely to remain for some time to come. The modest and unassuming man who hears it will not soon be forgotten by his fellow students. Unprejudiced football men have willingly recognized him as one of the best half- backs in Ohio and, had our team been a member of the conference, i he would undoubtedly have had a place on that mystical organization known as the llAll-Statell eleven. His points of excellence need scarcely be mentioned here, every Miami man knows them. Faithful and conscientious training, fast and effective offensive work, clean playing, loyalty to the team and t0 the SChO-Ol-thCSC are some of the qualities which have won for him a lasting fame in Miami foot- ball annals. Hundred and forty-nine Hundred and fifty RUPERT END Next fall, when the squad assembles on Miami field, there will be one familiar figure missing, that Of Rupert. For three years HSi has been one of the niost loyal and reliable men on the team. 33' his strong, hard playing and consistent training he has won the respect and hearty support of every student in school. He always rendered valuable service in smashing up interference and in getting down under punts. For him a game was never won nor lost until the Whistle blew. His place will be hard to E11. CHAPIN QUARTER Chapin is exceptionally well fitted for either quarter or half. He is a splendid general and a good ground gainer when carrying the ball. As a defensive half he is a hard taekler and by intercept- ing forward passes he always makes himself obnoxious to Opposing teams. He did the pnnting for the team this year in highly creditable style. ttfRurlyt'i is a hard worker and a player Who fights to the last. In football season the team's interests are his interests. N0 small share of the record Of the past two years is due to his efforts. MCCOY RIGHT HALF In picking a representative baCk-held man, one could find but few better than McCoy. COOl-headed, fast, strong as an OX, a sure, hard tackler, a stickeraa factor to be reckoned with in every game he plays. He is strong in offense and particularly so as a defensive full back. If a man ever broke through our line, itIrishi, was there to meet him. His teammates have honored him with the captaincy of next year's eleven. He has the confidence and united backing of the school. We believe he feels keenly his responsibility and will prove himself a successful leader. ELDREDGE END Eldredge began his football career at Butler, but, luckily for Miami, saw his mistake and last fall joined our ranks. Needless to say, he'iinniediately proceeded to iimake gOOtV and has proven a valuable annex to our team. He has a powerful physique and on the trip was usually the center of attraction though that fact is entirely irrelevant here. In breaking up interference and in receiv- ing forward passes he did splendid work and was a sure ground gainer when carrying the ball. With this seasons experience ilute, should be one of the stars in next years eleven. The services he has already rendered are appreciated by all. Hundred and fifty-one Hundred and flffy-two HARLEY GUARD A stranger seeing this modest little fellow on the campus would scarcely recognize him as our ferocious little guard. During foot- ball season Harley sees to it that nothing impairs his effectiveness as a member of the eleven, and as a result he is at all times llright up and coming? He is a sure, hard fighter and always contrives to outplay his opponent who, as a rule, outweighs him. Strong on offence, he is yet stronger on defence, almost invariably breaking through the opposing line. Harley doesnlt think much about the grandstands and only those who work with him fully realize what he means to the team. LEVERING FULL BACK ltJimli must have been born with the true Miami spiritehe never gives up and always lights to the end. He is a terrific line- smasher, difficult to stop. His ability in solving the opponents plays and in intercepting their forward passes, as well as his strong, hard tackling make him a formidable defensive half. Anyone who witnessedthis playing in the No-tre Dame and Cincinnati games could have no hesitancy in rating him as the best full back of his weight in the state. KlJinf, has two more years here. In that time he can not only bring honor to the school but can win for himself a name among Ohio football men. Whatever success the team may have next year will depend in no small measure on Levering's efforts. Miami expects much of him. PRINCE GUARD Like many another man who has won renown 0n the gridiron, Prince came to Miami with practically no football experience. He showed up well at the beginning of the season, however, and made wonderful improvement from the hrst. Although a comparatively small man, he has an abundance of strength, endurance, and grit- qualities which go a long way toward the making of a successful football player. After this years coaching he should develop into a steady and reliable guard and should greatly strengthen next years line. ENGEL CENTER Although he has made somewhat of a record as a high school player, Engel did not don a uniform until this, the second, year in college. He was early picked by the coach as the man to occupy the center hole left vacant by the graduation of Booth. This position was entirely new to him, but he filled it in a creditable manner. iiBillii has the hghting spirit and is a fast and aggressive player. He is only a Freshman and with more experience will make a strong and indispensable center man. He should make a valuable member of the 1911 team. ' Hmtdwed and fifty-three Hundred and fifty-four AGERTER Although he entered school late last fall, after the squad had already had three weeks of practice, Agerter again made his tiM? He was still the boy of the team, but showed much improvement over the 1908 season. Harry can fill almost any baek-held or end position and has it in him to nfake one Of Miamiis best football men if he persists in consistent training and regular practice. In the games in which he took part this year he showed the same old grit and determination which have always Characterized his playing. He will be back next fall and should make a permanent berth on the team. CHRISTOPH This was Christophis hrst year with the squad. He showed up well early in the season and took part in some of our hardest games, hlling in at guard, center, or tackle. In the Marietta game especially, he did very commendable work. His build and weight make him a valuable lineman and one who will naturally make much improvement if he continues in the game, With a little better self-control 0n the held he can become more effective in perfecting the teamwork and thus be of even greater service. He has two more years and should greatly strengthen the team. LEACH After subbing for two seasons, Leach has earned his letter. He is very small for a football man but he is full of speed and tire and energy and always makes himself known while in the game. He played for a time against both NO-tre Dame and Reserve and put everything he had into each contest. Leach is liked by every member of the squad and can do much at any time to preserve harmony among all the fellows. So long as he trains conscien- tiously and practices regularly as he did this year, he will have; little trouble in making the eleven. BAKER It is unusual to find a Freshman who has made his letter, and as deservedly as has Baker this year. iiPigU appeared on the held last fall, attired in some remnants of his high school days, but soon demonstrated that he was worthy of something better. He prac- ticed hard and delivered the goods in a creditable manner. He is small in stature but heavy, and has a wonderful amount of speed for a man of his build. Better than anything else he is endowed with an abundance of unadulterated grit. Coaches and football men are anticipating great things of him next season and do not expect to b be disappointed.

After the slump of the past two years a successful team was scarcely to be hoped for, and indeed during the early part of the season the predictions of the. critics b were apparently verified, for the first game with W ittenburg was distinguished by the absence of any semblance of team work, speed, or spirit on the part of our men. As a result of this defeat iCalf Stone and the men put in some hard work and from this time there was a noticeable improvement in the playing of the members of the team. Hundred and fifty-cight Mazzagew-RAYMOND BROWER The northern trip was not altogether successful, but this fact was mainly due to weather conditions and delay of trains which necessitated the playing of the Denison game at ten dclock at night after a trip of fourteen hours. In the return game at Oxford, Miami triumphed, defeating the up-state quintet for the first time in many years. Perhaps the most gratifying result of the entire season was to be found in the two decisive defeats administered to U. of C., the one on the enemyis Hoor and the other at Oxford. This latter game was played on the night following the Prom and was witnessed by the largest and most enthusiastic crowd which has ever filled Herron Gymnasium for an athletic contest. Thus the final record of the season showed that Miami had won all of the games which counted for most in the minds of the school. The work of the individuals composing the team cannot be too highly commended, but lack of space forbids anything but the briefest mention of them. Brown, as captain, by his splendid play- ing httingly closed his athletic record at 'Miami. Martin again gave abundant evidence of his ability as a basketball player. Levering showed a wonderful improvement over his work of last year. Smith and Herald, alternating at guard, played snappy games and should both be valuable members of next year's squad. Karg, captain- elect, iilled the other guard and showed consistent improvement throughout the season. ' More interest was shown in basketball this season by the student body than in any previous year, and with this sort of encouragement prospects for winning teams in the future are materially increased.

MARKLEY Hampered by a short schedule and working under discouraging difhculties, the baseball team of 1909 was unable to get itself into winning form. Two of the seven games were called on account of rain, and to the poor condition of the diamOnd before some of the others, may be attributed the loss of one or two more, which otherwise might have been won. The players themselves worked conscientiously, and for them individually there was no criticism. In accord with the present tendency among colleges to eliminate baseball as an intercollegiate sport and because of the fmancial failures of our baseball teams of the last few years, the faculty at the close of the season of 1909 decided to abolish the game at Miami. This action was taken with the feeling that if instead of dividing the student interest between baseball and track, all the energies of the school could be thrown to the latter, a larger number of fellows would be benefited and the school would really profit be- cause of the possibility of better work on the Cinder path.

MCCOY M anagew-HOMER BALLINGER The track record for the past year shows a series of continuous successes for Miami athletes. Not only was the team victorious in its dual meets, but the individual members from time to time showed their Ciprowess when pitted against the men of the Central Meet at carnivals in Cincinnati and elsewhere. Owing to the lateness of the spring and the consequent difficulty in training, the interclass meet held on April 24 produced nothing phenomenal. The Sophomores easily carried the day with a total of 61 points. The Seniors took second place with 27 points, and the Juniors followed with 23 points. The Freshmen suc- ceeded in accumulating 11 marks to their credit. On May 1 occurred the first dual meet on Miami field in which we triumphed over U. of C. with a score of 77 to 40. Adverse weather conditions and a muddy track precluded fast time or unusual records. Of the iifte-en events on the program Miami took ten firsts and nine seconds. There was not one event in which our men failed to score. McCoy startled the crowd by running the 100-yard dash in 9 4-5 seconds, equaling the varsity record, and Markley broke the record for the broad jump, 21 feet 9 inches. Chapin and Sollars tied in the pole vault at 9 feet 6 inches. The second meet of the year was held June 1, with Wittenberg, and resulted in an overwhelming Vic- tory for the Red and White. It was expected that Miami would take the contest, but so complete a walk- away had scarcely been hoped for. Our men took 14 firsts and 10 seconds and finished with a total of 97 points as compared with 14 made by Wittenberg. tContilmcd 011 page 1681 H mzdred and sixty-s-ix .- ,H tContinued from page way On June 19 liCaph Stone entered several men in the C. G. A. C. Meet held at Carthage. McCoy took hrst in the lOO-yard and the 220-yard, breaking the varsity record in the latter with a time of 22 1-5 sec- onds. Pults captured the .lOO-yard novice and Markley won first place in the broad jump and second in the high jump. The relay team took second. Miami again sent representatives to Cincinnati this year to compete in the First Regiment Meet held in the Armory on February 26. The results are well known to all who had the pleasure of seeing the llbunch of jewelry, which was brought back to Oxford. McCoy won the 50-yard championship and Pults the 60-yard hurdles. Perhaps the greatest event captured, however, was the intercollegiate relay which Miami easily took, beating the U. of C. team by 50 yards. The annual indoor meet held in the gymnasium, March 12, was enthusiastically supported. The meet was of especial significance inasmuch as it brought out a number of men who have not taken a prom- inent part in intercollegiate athletics. The Freshmen were in evidence in all of the events and succeeded in carrying away one of the medalsaa fact which augurs well for the future. Leach won the gold medal with 17 points and Boring and Clark tied for the silver medal with 14, Boring capturing the prize on the toss. With such a large number of men interested in track work and with llCapii Stone at the helm, Miami should do well in her meets this spring with Cincinnati, Earlham and Denison. Track WV!

MIAMI, 97; WITTENBERG, 14 H mzdred and sixty-m'ne Girlsl Athletic Association The Girls Athletic Association, founded in the spring of 1908, has prospered beyond all expectations and has already become an interesting factor in Miami athletics. The university has taken an interest in the organization and through the board of control awards lTMisll to the girls of the basketball team, the association itsehC fur- nishing sweaters. The team by winning all Of its games this year has made a record which Miami teams will. do well to accept as a standard. All girls of the school are eligible to membership in the associa- tion, the members of which are distinguished from those less for- tunate by a small neat M pin. During the spring a tennis tournament is open to all the girls and this year the Board of Control has bought golf sticks for the use Of the members. The organization as it now exists does something worth while and because of its activity in the interests of its members and 0f the school, it deserves the hearty support of everyone.

Membership in the Tennis Association, which has control of the sport at Miami, numbers about forty. Already the organization for this year has been perfected and the courts have been completely remodeled preparatory to early practice on the part of those who expect to compete in the spring tournament. Matches are being arranged with other colleges and support by the students is assured. Ashton, Anthony, Robinson, and others of last year's best players are back in school and should put up a much better game. In addition, there are a number of new tennis enthusiasts enrolled. Ashton and Anthony were the winners of the doubles and Anthony the winner of the singles in last yearts tournament. H undred cmd seventy-thrce The Varsity, Golf Club 3 RT organization, known as the Varsity Golf Club, was formed in the university early in March. Owing to the great revival of interest this year in the old Scotch game, it was thought best by those interested to organize in order to further the interest in the game. The course has been improved to some extent with new greens, tees, Hags, etc., the playing distance of the course has been increased to 1,800 yards, and the bogie for the nine holes has been Exed at 35,. The last record of the course, 45, was made by Lyle Kaye, 06, when he won the Championship Cup furnished by the Peters Arms C0111- pany. The cup passed into his possession as he won it for two years. Now that the course has been rearranged and improved, a new score will go as the record. A menis tournament 0r championship will be held in May for some appropriate trophy. It is also planned to run some mixed foursome contests to include the girls, besides some sweepstakes, Hundred and seventy-four and driving and putting contests. Golf at Miami should receive the same support from the univer- sity as does tennis, for it is a good healthy college sport and de- serves tolbe given the support it had a few years ago. As for the future, great improvements can be made upon the present nine- hole course, which though considered sporty by many, penalizes in some cases gootl shots. An eighteen-hole course here in full swing is what we want and are confidently looking forward to. The membership is open to all students of Miami University. A constitution has been drawn up and adopted as well as ground rules. The thcers for the present season are: PTCSidC7lt+WILLIAM BLYTI-IE SCCVetCWy-HALSEY E.

ML- 4254114429 Hundred and seventy-five Hundred and seventy-six The Annual Class Conlesl one of the most exciting battles of recent years. Long per- secuted by the Miami tribe of the Associated Order of Gobblers, the Freshmen came forth in their llglad ragsli with bit- terness of heart and a wholesome hate for their haughty enemies. The Sophomores came like wolves, seeking whom they might devour and departed like lambs garnished with mud instead of mint sauce. When the pistol shot was bred about 7 :30 a.m., the Freshmen were gathered loosely about the pole and McMicken, of Wyoming, sat on the top. On came the Sophomore wedge with Schramm at the front. Slowly at hrstithey came, with rhythmic: movement, swinging from side to side, heads bowed low,-a human battering- ram. Breathless suspense! But the Freshmen were too wise to wait for the clash. They rushed from the pole and began the at- tack. Then the fun began. For over thirty minutes there was the most awful struggle recorded in all the annals of warfare. Heads were rammed into the ground and shirts torn to shreds. Two men would clash and hit the slippery earth like a ton of lead. The ground was soaked'with rain and they all got damp quick. Fifty wrestling matches were going on at once. It was a continuous performance, and must have been very discouraging to the flghters. Time after time warriors were carried from the held, only to return and per- haps tie their former captors. At length there came a lull, and someone remarked that there seemed to be a scarcity of Sophomores in the immediate Vicinity. It developed that some of them had gone to the gym and finding that they had a quorum, had proceeded to hold a Class meeting and make plans for annihilating the Freshmen. When discovered, they were reading the minutes of the last meeting. They finally adjourned and attack number two was made. It was a rather lktackyli attack, and the Freshmen were again too many 12R rrHE unpleasantness occurred on Monday, October 11, and was for them. With the blood-curdling yell, llSit on the Sophomore! Sit on his faceV they rushed at their Victims and before long the Sophomores were being carried off the field by the wearers of the yellow and black. The list of heroes is too long to be included-get the Freshman and Sophomore class rolls and youill have it-but Christoph, Baker, Poggendick, Schramm, Junk and Sollars were among those present. Early in the game Himmelright and Hill tied Robertson to the pole, but before long he was back in the game fighting three fellows at once. One of the amusing features was the wrestling match between llLengthyb White and one of the Rosencransis. Their arms were wrapped lovingly about each others necks, their legs were mixed up in several other conflicts, and their feet spread havoc in all directions. McMickenls position as birdis-eye Viewer from the top of the pole became rather uncomfortable in the course of time, so he called for a pillow and lived happy ever after. Jersey Bryant had rather a hard time of it. He had one eye on the flght and the other on his milk wagon. He had to go over and drive the Freshmen girls away sereral times. The girls were much in evidence, and always proved an inspiration to their light- ing classmates. This is enough about the rush. Oh, yes, we forgot, Dwight Minnich wore overshoes. The football game was played in the, Athletic Park, at 2:30 p.m. The Freshmen had won the first event so it was liup to the Sophsii to do something. They did. The weather was rainy, but a large crowd appeared notwithstanding. Captain Pixler won the toss and the Sophs kicked off. The game began with a rush, Butler, Baker and Monson making three star tackles. Both lines held pretty well, but at several times Webster made eight and twelve-yard gains on bucks. End runs, punts, and line bucks were the plays chieHy used, though the Freshmen tried Hundred and seventy-seven some forward passes. Schramm and Roudebush did most of the printing, and made repeated end runs for good gains. Likewise did Clark and Gee. During all of the first half the ball was in Freshman territory. Webster made the hrst touchdown for the Sophs on a line buck. 'Pixler missed goal. In the second half, iiShortyi, Herald made a brilliant 55-yard run through a broken field for a touchdown. Pixler kicked goal, thus making the score 11 to O in the Sophs, favor. Without any more scoring, the game ended with the ball on the Freshiesi 15-yard line. The game was very satisfactory.

Herald The pushball contest was inter- esting, exciting, and novel. Both Clases entered the struggle with bull- dog determination, and there was a splendid exhibition of Class spirit. There were some spectacular effects and also some very funny happen- ings. At times the ball behaved in a most exasperating way, and both classes discovered that there was scia ence in manipulating it. The Fresh- men were outclassed in the hght and their determination was changed to a forlorn hope before long. Shirts that were good enough for a fire sale before the contest, were hardly worth while for the rag man afterwards, and some had disappeared entirely. The Sophomores won by a score of 24 to O and the day was theirs. x x K- m-EEEEEV LE1 ,...... - W ? xx ' '7 w; m; Veagx W Iggy; A. ' I'K X g f . Vx i N , ,' I , , ; , ' '.' I .

Montgomery Hundred and eighty-one The Junior Prom HE Second Junior Premenade was held on the twenty-fifth of last February. It was conducted on much the same plan as the one Of last year, but two features were changed somewhat. a Last year the decorations were so arranged that they hid the roof of the gymnasium from view to some extent. Instead of con- cealing or adorning it they served to attract attention to the upper part of the building. This year there was no attempt to cover the rafters. Large fern baskets hung in the corners of the ball-room, and from these were draped red streamers to form canopies over the ' Qlarmll Hundred and eighty-two booths. Miami pennants and baskets of cut flowers decked the gallery simply but effectively. Around the upper and lower railings were hundreds of electric lights, ground glass above and red and green alternating below. These lights of course made the roof very bright but instead of marring the effect, its bareness seemed to add to the attractiveness of the whole. The very walls of the room helped to fulnll the color scheme with their broad expanse of red and green, and the plans for decoration really turned out better than the committee had expected. Instead Of in the dancing hall, as last year, the luncheon was served in the rooms below, and the dancers went clown in groups. This plan is better than the old, and having been tried once can be carried out mere satisfactorily in the future. Mrs. Tudor furnished the luncheon. The music was by the Simon Orchestra, Of Middletown. It was good, but was criticised by some as too rollicking for such a formal occasion. This may be true, but it is also true that the class of music played was more enjoyed than music of perhaps a better type. The Junior Prom is a problem. Some fea- tures of it are satisfactory, some are not. The standard set thus far is high for a school of this size, but not too high. If the Junior classes in the future work as conscientiously as. have the two in the past, and if like success rewards their efforts, the problem will be solved in a few years. Long live the Junior Prom! llllll ''''' ..: V.?B 'W'i .

Business Manager After considerable discussion in and out of the pages of the Student, it was finally decided to Change the Alia'rni Student from the monthly paper, which had such success, into a weekly edition. Last spring a committee was selected to draw up a constitution in regard to editors, manner of electing, etc., for a weekly issue. They recommended one managing editor and two associates who were to take alternate numbers. This constitution was adopted and the above named editors were chosen to pilot the infant publication through its first year of life. , That the conhdence of the student body in the ability of Miami to support a weekly paper was justihed is shown by the results. Through the work of Managing Editor Fels and his associates, Johnston and Smith, the 11ew publication rapidly improved and is ready to take its place among the best college weeklies of the State. Manager Brown has put it on a paying basis this year and Assistant Manager Roudebush has great'plans for next year. It would be too much to expect a new project like this to be perfect after only one year of trial and we can see that the Student is no exception, but it has made far greater progress than even the most optimistic of us dared to hope. With the experience of this year as a guide, there is no reason why the Student in another year or so should not be as good as any college paper in the land.

KINDER, Assistant Hundred and eighty-eight The Press Club URING the winter term of 1910 the students of the univer- D sity who are interested in journalism and journalistic work, organized themselves into a club known as the University Press Club. For a long time it has been the desire of 'some to have some such organization where those who are looking toward journalism as a flflld fer life work, might study the newspapers and magazines of the country, compare them with the aid of men who have been engaged in that work and who have had experience, and gather ideas which will help them in the future. It is the object of the club to assemble periodically and discuss questions relating to the press today, and whenever possible to have some man prominent in newspaper work or in magazine circles, address them upon such subjects. Each member of the Club must be willing to give some of his time to the preparation and reading of a paper on some phase of journalism. The organization was by the students themselves aided by Dr. Upham, the head of the English department in the university. The following are the ofhcers and members: OFFICERS President-HAROLD B.

Past H istoryeln the season of 1908-1909 the Club was headed by three cheer- leaders, Stiles, Langdon and Harrell. At present there is but one leader, Blythe. The club has grown in strength and effectiveness and bids fair to be of much help in supporting Miami athletics and in keeping up spirit. At present its function is too narrow. It should be a factor not in athletics alone but in other contests between Miami and other schools, and we predict that in future years it will be. The leaders that have been namediare fellows of worth, and the school owes them a large debt of gratitude. ' DEMECRATIC CLUB President W. C. HODGES Vice-President-W'. F. SIZELOVE .

T IS the object of Der Deutsche Verein, by means of its meet- I ings on every other Tuesday night, to enable the students to gain greater skill in German conversation. The society is open to all students of German H and aboye, and all faculty members and students who speak the language. Since its reorganization last year the ofhcers have acted as a regular prografn committee. The pro- grams are usually short, consisting of musical numbers, vocal and instrumental, readings, recitations, etc. General conversation and singing takes up the remainder of the evening. Frequently the meetings are varied by an illustrated lecture by the German pro- fessors. The title of the annual play given. this Year was, llEr ist nicht eifersiichtig?

Unfortunately the club has not been able to present as many little French plays as usual. One evening Dr. Brandon gave a very interesting lecture on Paris, illustrated by lantern slides.

T hose in charge, realizing the importance of the law pro- . fession, propose to engage speakers of national reputation, such as the dean of some good law school, a judge, or practicing attorney, to address the law men from time to time. It also affords an opportunity for these men to ask and answer such questions as they see fit. Besides this, advice is offered by various professors relative to the best law schools, scholarships, courses, etc. It has not been advisable to organize this group, into a Law Club for two reasons: In the first place, we believed to effect an organization would be sacrificing our interest; and, secondly, we realized that without an organization we would be free and inde- pendent of corruption in office and the torment of petty politics.

Franz Paul Dildine Business Menis Club MONG the clubs organized by the faculty for the men going into the various professions, there was none for which a greater need existed than the one for prospective business men. Many complaints have been heard from practical business men in regard t0 the training received in the colleges in preparation for business life. To meet this need the university established several courses in Sociology and Economics which are of especial aid to those expecting to enter business. This year the authorities have gone even farther and gathered all those expecting to enter business into an organization where they may discuss in a more or less informal way those problems which they will be apt to face in practical life. In answer to a call by Prof. Hoke those students expecting to enter business met in his class room. After a very practical talk by Prof. Hoke 0n the needs of a business man, and one by Dr. Todd on the opportunities in the field of business, the club organized by electing W. T. Glass president, B. W. Gillespie Vice-president, and Anthony Poss secretary-treasurer. These officers were constituted an executive committee to prepare programs for the meetings of the club. Two weeks afterward Mr. Yerg-er, General Manager of the Provident Life and Trust Company in Cincinnati, spoke to the club on the opportunities in life insurance. His address proved very interesting and instructive. It is the plan of the executive commit- tee to have men representing the various lines of industry speak to the club. All these meetings are to be strictly informal, cul- minating perhaps in a smoker. MEMBERS W. T. Glass H. A. Burgett F. E. Stiles Hi A. Moore B. W. Gillespie T. A. Rymer C. R. Heeter H. R.

PIERCY, Pianist Luther Eldredge Two hundred and three The Glee Club Banquet On the tenth of last February was held, in Hepburn Hall, the third annual Glee Club banquet. There were lifty-nine persons present. After the usual short reception the company went to the dining hall and spent an evening that was surely a record-breaker for enjoyment and good order. The room was bright with white and crimson and at each plate lay a large red rose, the Glee Club flower. Throughout the even- ing the strains of a harp mingled delightfully with gay talk and laughter, and Mrs. Tudor did herself proud. Everything was in excellent taste from the place-cards to the cake. Miniature music racks and little horns shaped as mandolins and guitars were given as keepsakes and reminders of the very pleasant aHair. After the feast itself had come to a close the guests were treated to a banquet of eloquence and humor of as rich a Havor as the more material one just ended. As toastmaster Mr. Piercy was very satisfactory and his remarks were vagrant enough to suit the most Epicurean taste. The Erst toast was by Dr. Upham, and he handled his subject, llReminiscencesf with a delicacy of humor quite delightful. Drl Hokels talk was charmingly exasperating in its indeliniteness. He chose a very suitable title, IIWeill know in a few clays? Mr. Hitchcock followed with a burst ofesomething or other on the subject IIAt Home? Then rose Mr. Langdon and spoke entertainingly on ilThe Grand Finale? The last toast was by Mr. Calderwood. His theme was wBring the wagon home, John? He had no discoverable motive and his talk was rather analytical in nature. After the toasts the club sang a selection or two and that broke up theeno, that doesn,t sound at all well. Anyhow, there wasnit anything after that. The Glee Club Trip or Innocence Abroad Though saddened by the absence of the beloved-umph-bird, last springs trip was a very pleasant one. The towns Visited were Middletown, Loveland, Eaton, Piqua, Union City, Tippecanoe City, Sidney and Dayton. If variety is the spice of life, the trip was a spicy one as to hotels, theatres. tor churchesy and audiences. Also some towns were wet and some were dry. The club started out with the inspiring motto, ilIf you see a note, hit itii and the corollary, llDonit spit on the footlightsii We ended at Dayton with lilVIiami! Yip! Yip V all through the night. IIWell, sayfi it was in Loveland that four of the members went to Sunday school tnames given on requesD. Prof. Hoke had to borrow a dime to. put in the collection plate. The Glee Club Sundayed partly in Loveland and partly in Cincinnati. In the last named city we gamboled in the parlors of the Grand Hotel, and had star-strangled bananas for breakfast. From there we went to Eaton, the town that gave the club its first Two hundred and four start in life, for Eaton was the first stop on the first trip that the club ever took. Here it was that Prof. Hoke advised us to play the nickel-in-the-slot machines and get pointers by listening to the quartettes. In several towns social affairs of various kinds were given in honor of our coming. Needless to say we were there llwith bells onii. In the words of Bob Calderwood, the matinee idol, IIMiami friends pursued us ever in our Flight? EX-president Jones followed us around with the spirit of the institution and in Dayton brought his ilbetter-halfi, to hear us. These little journeys in the early spring are perhaps enjoyed more in memory than while they are being taken. In years to come the odd little happenings of college days will be treasured, and things that now seem trivial will be enriched by the magic touch of time. Then with a new meaning we will say the words now dropped in fun, Holly good things, these Glee Club trips? Two hundred and five Home Concerf PROGRAM Part One 4.

BURKE, Director Two hundred and seven Madrigal Club The second year of the Miami Madrigal Club has passed most successfully. Last years Madrigal girls left a reputation which had to be sustained. This meant work. Rehearsals began with the opening of the fall term and continued until the night of the concert. On February third, under the patronage of the Faculty Women,s Club, the concert was held in Bishop Memorial Alumni Hall. The hrst part of the program consisted of classical selections. In the second part the girls in informal groups rendered typical and original college songs. One of the features of the evening concert was a burlesque on the Glee Club. The girls strode in with a masculine stride feeling most uncomfortable in stiff collars and dress coats. The concert as a whole was undoubtedly a great success, the girls had accomplished their aim. After the concert was over the audience, consisting of Miami students, faculty mem- bers and out-of-town guests, met and enjoyed with the Madrigal girls a pleasant social hour. Regular Madrigal rehearsals were renewed the beginning of thespring term to prepare for Moon- light Serenades.

Young Two hundred and thirteen Erodelphian Literary Society Scimztlia, Eloquevlztia, et Amicitia A natural death of the literary societies has been presaged for the last decade by their critical observers, but the time is not yet; on the other hand, facts seem to indicate that we are emerging from the latent into incip- ience. When we consider that such men as Cal- vin Brice and Whitelaw Reid were once mem- bers, we hesitate to suggest that Erodelphian is today greater than ever before, and yet it would be phenomenal if she had not in some measure kept pace with the new growth of Miami. This much we are doing and more-not only are we profiting by the advance of our own university, but we are beginning to feel the effects of an- other-perhaps a cosmopolitan movement-namely, the return of College Literary and Debate. The last quarter century has witnessed an unusually low ebb in college literary throughout the country. Such depressions come Two hundred and fourteen and will recur from time to time as the periodical sway of social approval comes and goes. It is the experience of all perennial activities, there have always been successive growths and decay in art, religion, commercialism, and statesmanship. In this, the college literaryathough perhaps of less prominence-ais no exception to the rule. With this revival we have increased our membership, we have gained in attendance, we are enjoying a higher standard of literary work and effort, we have remodeled the constitution and adopted a secret ritual and form of initiation which is one of the most inter- esting as well as profitable features of our literary experience. Erodelphian has its meaning, its ideals, its bonds, and liThose who love it? Last spring we won first and second in the oratorical contest, this year we defeated Miami Union in the annual inter- society debate. For this Victory we accredit Anthony Poss, Warren Glass, and Wallace Brashears. For intercollegiate debate this year we have two men on the regular teams and one alternate, Leonard Fels, Bryce Gillespie, and Wallace Roudebush respectively. Erodelphian has always stood well, but she stands even greater today than ever before; the present is always greater than the past, just as the full blown Flower is superior to the faded. The influence of the faded is manifest, but who can predict the outcome of the present? Who can tell what the next generation will reveal from Erodelphian P HARRELL.

Frazer Two hundred and Wieen Two hundred and sixteen Miami Union Literary Society The present school year is placing upon the records of the Miami Union Literary So- ciety a long list of achievements. More than ever before has there been displayed an eager- ness and earnest spirit in every branch of ac- tivity. Miami Union has been versatile in the variety of her efforts. This year there was established an orchestra and a quartette and both of these have done much to augment the literary work done. In the Spring term the Society has staged a burlesque grand opera, given for the benefit of the Oratorical As- sociation. A majority of the members assisted in this production. But the best work has been done on oratory and debate, and Miami Union has a proud record to display. Of the twelve men who tried out for the intercollegiate debate, seven were Miami Union members, and of these, hve won places on the teams. A large number of mem- bers also tried out for the Oratorical Contest and as gratifying a result appeared here also. Among the progressive steps which the society took this year, was a revision of her constitution; the purpose being to encourage membership for the sake of literary work only. Under it the membership almost doubled since the beginning of the year and the programs have been of the highest standard. The hall has also been improved and the platform ex- tended to permit the delivery of addresses to better advantage. The revival of interest in literary work seems to indicate that cognizance is being taken of the training which has proven invaluable to so many successful men. A. FISCHER. Two hundred and seventeen Tau Kappa Alpha HE Ohio Chapter of Tau Kappa Alpha was installed at Miami I University, June 11, 1909. Lieutenant-Governor Hugh T. Miller, of Indiana, who for years was president of the Phi Delta Theta fraternity, and new president of Tau Kappa Alpha, was present and led the initiation. Tau Kappa Alpha is a national honorary fraternity to which only men who have represented their college in intercollegiate de- bate 0r oratory are eligible. It thus stands for merit and not choice, and to be a member means national recognition with the many active college debaters and orators, as well as with the host of alumni whose college training of leadership in thought and persuasion has made them foremost in the pulpit, press, and State. Let Tau Kappa Alpha be an incentive to higher literary work at Miami; let it be a recognition worthy of emulation; let it ever mark the men that think and do. HARRELL. Members Of Ohio Chapter Dr. G.

It consists of the members of the Miami Union and Erodelphian Literary Societies, the president being elected from one society and the secretary from the other. Each society has this honor in alternate years, the Ero- delphian receiving it this year. The Association, acting through its Executive Committee, in conjunction With the heads of the departments of Public Speaking, Sociology, and Economics, has charge of all intercollegiate debates and oratorical contests as well as the local activities.

It now has arrangements completed for a minstrel show to be given by the Erod'elphian and a mock opera by the Miami Union Societies. It is expected to realize enough from these enter- tainments to put them completely out of debt. The association does not receive the support from the university that athletics and. other college activities receive, but there are a number of loyal and hard-working men behind it, each doing his utmost to help literary work at Miami. As a result the association is doing good work. The results of last years dual debate with Ohio University are exceedingly gratifying. Neither team lost. the teams: The following are Negative .at Athens BOWMAN, HARRELL, PICKREL. SESSAMAN, Alternate. Two hundred and nineteen The Debalmg Teams AffirmativeeJOHNSTON, SESSAMAN, FELs.

ROUDEBUSH, Alternate PETRY, Alternate Question-ellResolved, that the United States should establish a system of Postal Savings Banks, ments for a triangular debate with Butler and Ohio Univer- sities, the Butler team coming here and Miamiis team journey- ing to Athens. Upon the call of Professor Taylor about twenty men came out for the first preliminaries, each prepared with a five- minute speech upon either side of the question which he preferred. From these, twelve men were chosen who were to compete for a place on the team in a later preliminary debate. On February 9 these semi-fmals were held. The debaters were divided into affirmative and negative teams and two debates, one following right after the other were held, those in the first debate not being permitted to hear the second one. The successful debaters were those named above. Mr. Johnston came to Miami from Walnut Hills High School, Cincinnati, where he left an excellent record in literary activities. He has not heretofore taken a very active part in debating and oratory, but has served on the RECENSIO and Student staffs and this year is doing good work as associate editor of the Student. He joined Miami Union this fall. Mr. Sessaman was alternate on the team last year, and had no difficulty in making good this year, Although a quiet and un- obtrusive person, at most times he is right there in a debate. He has one of the easiest and most convincing deliveries of any person in school. He is a member of Miami Union. Mr. Fels has always been an active worker in the Erodelphian Literary Society, having held various offices from president down. He is managing editor of the St'zrtdevnt, being in no small measure re- sponsible for its success this year. In his Sophomore year he was alternate on the debating team but did not try out in his Junior I EARLY in the year, the Oratorical Association made arrange- Two hundred and twenty year. He spent the summers of ,08 and ,09 speaking for the Ohio State Board of Commerce before the business men over the State. Mr. Roudebush is a Junior who has never before tried to show his debating powers. He is an active worker in the Erodelphian Literary Society and will undoubtedly be one of our strongest men next year. Mr- Gillespie is also just making his initial bow to varsity de- bating. He entered Miami in ,06 and immediately became an active worker in Erodelphian. As a result he is now rewarded with a place on the varsity team. Mr. Coyner, a Junior, has always taken an active part in liter- ary work although he never tried out for the debating team before. He is a good student, several times having made all As. In the three years he has made an excellent record in Miami Union. Mr. Vollweiler, after teaching two years, came to Miami in the fall of 07. He has been president of the Oratorical Association and also of Miami Union. Last year he won an essay medal given by the llSons of the American Revolution? He never tried for the team before but easily won his place. Mr. Petry, a member of Miami Union, has spent most of his time in the Manual Training department until this year, but it now appears that he should have given more time to the literary side of college life for he has much ability in this line. Miamiis affirmative team, before an enthusiastic audience, won their debate from Butler, but the negative team at Athens could obtain the decision of only one of the judges and consequently lost. But although we were victorious in only one of our debates, we feel equally proud of both teams for they have worked long and faith- fully with nothing at hteartivexcept the best interests of Old Miami.

Two hundred and twenty-two The annual debate between the two literary societies took place in the Auditorium on the nineteenth Of October. 011 the day before the debate, badges bearing the name of the society and its debaters were distributed after chapel among the members and supporters of the rival organizations. These badges, together with Chapel talks made by Dr. Bedford and Prof. Taylor, brOUght out quite a crowd in the evening. ' The Erodelphian and Miami Union societies were gathered in the front rows of the Auditorium and their yells livened things up considerably. The monotony of the debate was lessened by selections from the Miami Union Orchestra and 50105 by Mr. Robertson 0f Erodelphian. The debate was decided in favor Of the afhrmative by the three judges, Dean James, Prof. Stewart, and Dr. Frazer, so according to the agreement only Erodelphian colors were worn next day. For an inter-soeiety affair the whole program was of a decidedly high grade and was a good omen for the success of the varsity teams. MIAMI UNION TEAM The Oratorical Contest sociation, Miami became affiliated with the State Oratorical Association. Each college selects a representative to appear in the State contest. The rules of each contest by which these men are selected are left to the college, with the exception that all orations must be on some subject relating to Arbitration 0r Universal Peace. The State contest will be held at Miami this year. Eleven colleges will send representatives and there will be two sessions, one in the afternoon and one in the evening. A prize of seventy- five dollars will be given to the winner of this contest and also the privilege of representing Ohio in the inter-state contest to be held later in the year. Miami,s contest was held on Friday, the twenty-second of April. As in previous years, a prize of twenty-five dollars was given to the winner, but with the added incentive of being allowed to par- ticipate in the State contest, additional efforts were put forth. The night was rainy and this kept several people at home, but neverthe- less a large and enthusiastic audience was present. THIS year, through the efforts of the Miami Oratorical As- The following are the contestants with the subjects of their orations: War and Tradition ................... JAMES W.

HEETER After the contest the judges, Dr. John Grant Newman, of the Western; Dean L. B. James, of Oxford College; and Rev. A. F. Hale, pastor of the Methodist Church, left the room for a few moments. V ery soon Dr. Newman returned and announced that Mr. Heeter had been unanimously chosen as the winner of the con- test. He will now be Miamiis representative in the intercollegiate contest on April 29, and we hope to see him bearing Ohiois colors in the interstate contest. Two hundred and twenty-three Liberal Arts Club I I XHE Liberal Arts Club has prospered greatly during the year 1909-1910. An unusual enthusiasm has been manifested by all the members and all the meetings have been well attended. The Club has been fortunate in having Mrs. Williamis home as a place of meeting and in having her continual interest and help. A large number of new members have been taken in during the year, twenty-nine in all, making a total membership of forty-three. In accordance with the requirements for admission all the members are students with a 13 average. Because Of her interest in the work, the girls elected Mrs. Clark a patroness 0f the club. Meetings have been held regularly every two weeks and the program planned at the beginning of the year has been faithfully carried Out. The country of Holland has been studied throughout the year. The work of the first two terms was a general survey of the country with particular emphasis on the customs of the people. The last term was devoted to a study of Dutch Art, the work being directed by Mrs. Clark. The programs of the last term were varied by the introduction of special music and readings. Looking back over the year the members of the club realize that they have acquired added facility in speaking before others, that they have gained considerable knowledge, and that they have be- come better acquainted with each other and their patronesses.

Two hundred and twcuty-fivc Pierian Club ' N THE school year of 1903 and 1904 a society wasorganized I by the girls of, the Normal College under the name of the l Pierian Literary Society. In 1909 the club was received into the Ohio Federation of Womanls Clubs and has since been known as the Pierian Club. This school year did not start out in a very encouraging way, for we were left with only three active members. Fortunately we had the present Freshman class who contributed several good members to our club. With the help of our new members and the faculty our club has steadily progressed, until now we have thirty active and several honorary members. In October we sent two girls as delegates to the convention of Ohiols Federated Clubs at Lima. These girls brought us ideas of what the Clubs were doing in all cities and towns of Ohio. Our programs are varied. Last term we devoted one evening of the month to the study of Norway, and the second term, of Italy. Of these countries we have studied the geography, literature, and art. Other evenings have been given over to the working out of social problems and the discussion of Current Topics.

On the cabinet are represen- tatives 0f the best men in Miami and to their efforts and infiuence the success of the past year is due. The game and reading rooms in the Auditorium received more than their usual patronage. The meetings in the Association Chapel and Auditorium were attended by an earnest body of Christian men. Among the leading speakers were President Fess of Antioch College, Tad. Jones, Mrs. Richards, Mayor Brennan of Xenia, and Dr. Benton. Most of the meetings were led by Miami men. The meetings were made especially attractive from time to time by special musical features. . The appeal for Bible Study met with an enrollment of eighty- four and an average attendance of about seventy. All classes were held at the regular morning hour for Sunday School which accounts in large measure for the unusual interest in Bible Study. No Mis- sion Classeswere held. Two meetings were held. in the interest 40f t missions aiid liberal hnancial support was given. 3 S SHOWN by the picture on the opposite page, the work of The Student Volunteer Convention at Rochester was attended by Messrs. Roudebush, Day, and Chiu. Messrs. Rymer and Simpson represented Miami at the State Y. M. C. A. Convention of which Dr. Benton was president. President Fels and Treasurer Day were delegates to the Presidentis Convention at Dayton. From a social Viewpoint the association did some excellent work. Among the functions given were a reception to Coach Iddings, The Stag Informal last September, the Joint Reception with the Y. W. C. A., and the Annual Football Banquet. The Association is stronger today than it was a year ago. Al- though the percentage of its members to the number of men in college is not as high as a few years ago, yet no reproach can be cast on its present membership. The men on the Association roll at the present time are active, earnest, Christian men, following out only the highest ideals for college students. As Christian gentlemen they stand for a square deal and fairness in all college activities, Clean living, and loyalty to the traditions of the-institution.

The association has received an impetus from the Visits of Miss Souel, the territorial secretary, Miss Dickey 0f the Hamilton As- sociation, and Miss Osborne, a missionary from China. I The eight committees are divided into sub-committees. Every member has some active duty on one of these committees. The association has been kept up by systematic giving and by the good work done by the Finance Committee. The budget this year Will exceed $500. The association is surely an association for the girls, as is shown by the spirit manifested, the well attended meetings, the social affairs and the way in which the rest room is kept up.

HELEN SANFORD The Mid:Year Play YOUNG MISS GRANT HARRELL HITCHCOCK CALDERWOOD FITZPATRICK MINNICH BINGHAM HEETER MISS BUNYAN M155 FINK Two lmuzdrcd and thirty-seven The Mid:Year Play HE ntid-year play was serVed to us as a distinct novelty- a farce which carried us away from our historical reserve which we associate with our classic ideals, and let our funny- . spots be tickled to the limit. Now, when we go to see a farce we do not, at least we should not, expect to see something elevating, majestical, or overpowering- if it were a play with these characteristics it would not be a farce. The mid-year play was a'farce, it was written as such, advertised as such, and given as such, so neither the director nor cast owe any apologies for any misrepresentation. We enjoyed it, so the farce lived up to its requirements. Perhaps tlThe Private Secretaryii is not the greatest farce that has ever been written, but it has a good theatrical history. It is a German translation and has been used by Tree in England, and Gillette in America; in fact, the latter in his final tour for next year intendsto revive it along with his other plays of the past, and whenever a man with such a reputation deems a farce good enough not only to use but also to revive, no one need be ashamed of it. As for the Miami presentation of this play, it is beyond all doubt the best thing that has ever been given by, the dramatic club. Mr. Fitzpatrick and Mr. Calderwood share honors in the male roles- The former showed us what excellence an amateur can attain when he really throws himself into his Character, while the latter, who is Two hundred and thirty-eight always good, gave a better interpretation to the role of Catterniole, the cross old uncle, than anything he has ever done at Miami. lVlr. Hitchcock, as the social aspiring tailor, again proved his histrionic ability, while Mr. Heeteris work was well appreciated. Mr. Minnichis part was very difficult for he had to change back and forth from the real nephew to his assumed character of the private secretary. This is always difficult to do, and considering this, his work was very satisfactory. The dramatic club will lose a valuable member at his graduation this year. Mr. Bingham gave exceptionally well the reserve of an old English gentleman. Mr. Young's part as the servant will serve him valuably in stage-practice for the future. The girls parts in this play are poorly written but were very well played notwithstanding. Miss Washburn as the rooming- house keeper, and Miss Grant as the old maid, were in every way equal to their roles; while Miss Bunyan and Miss Fink gave a coquettishness to their work that was delightful. deserves great credit for his excellent directing. . Judging from its hearty reception, we want more plays like The Private Secretaryg Let the graduating classes of the College of Liberal Arts and the Normal School give us Classics, but let the mid-year play be one of pure fun.

FITZPATRICK T790 hundred and llzirlyninc Literary Dramatics called a revival of that ii01d time spirit? The Miami Union Society presented a mock opera with most elaborate stage setting and costuming. Hazlett Moore and Jesse Robinson sang the feminine roles With much ability, while Fitzpatrick, Sizelove, and Souers did their parts equally well. The large corps de ballet assisted wonderfully in the effectiveness of the production. The entire work was done under the direction of Joseph Clokey who has exceptional musical ability. The Erodelphian gave a minstrel show-the first one given here for four years. The end-men were Hitchcock, Langdon, Lamb, Sullivan, Smith, and He-eter, with Bachelor as interlocutor. They were assisted by a large chorus. The parody songs and local hits created great fun for the audience. The olio was. a farce written ON APRIL 28, the two literary societies gave what might be by Joe Bachelor, tiThe Value Of a College Educationii ttwenty years lateri.

F HERE'S more sense in trying to keep down expenses than in F trying to keep up appearances. You can't run an automo- tbile on a bicycle income. Money may be the root of all evil, but like other roots it has medicinal properties. Being a root you have to dig for it. Its a good thing to have in your business if you dont want your business to run away with you or go to the wall. Paper-hangers are the only folks who succeed by going to the wall. Money talks but a roll calls. It seems to be the rule of this world. Each person has what he doesnt want, and the other people have what he does want. Life is mostly made up of praying for rain and then wishing it would Clear off. It is just one darn thing after another. Life is too short to be taken seriously. The young man who thinks that sowing wild oats is a prerequisite to being a real man hasnlt sense enough to pour water out of a boot with the directions on the heel. He has just about as much chance as a dog with tallow legs Chasing an asbestos cat through the future land of eternal summer. A chicken T200 Izmzdred and fifty-six is the only thing that gets praised for laying around all the time. Common sense is the uncommonest thing under the sun, and some people entirely lack tact. David said in his haste,l llAll men are liars? W-e clonlt see why he was in such a hurry about it. A man is a conhrmed liar when nothing he says is confirmed. Living to be old takes up too much valuable time for a busy If you want to keep young fall in love. Love never reaches the age of discretion. You will make and keep friends by being ' pleasant. Kind words will never die,eyou have to slay them. But be like the oyster, know when to keep your mouth shut. Remem- ber, there is one thing you should keep after giving it to another,a that is, your word. When youive found work, clon,t say you have a position. Say you have a job. I had a friend who wrote that he had a position as draft clerk in a bank. I found later that his duty was to open and close the door. Whatis in a name, anyhow?

Thou Shall Nol Thou shalt not smile nor make any excuse for laughter when prayers in chapel exceed lifteen minutes in length. Thou shalt not prevent thy affections from being designed upon any of the Delta Zetas, for they are love-sick maidens and need the remedy which only a masculine heart can administer. When thou hast a 7 :30 thou shalt not eat any pickles, nor peanut butter sandwiches, nor Badens banana pie before retiring, for verily if thou do these things, thou shalt not be ,able to arise in time for that 7 :30. y Thou shalt not walk on the grass, neither shalt thon molest the fountain, nor the bricks which compose the fountain, nor any of the water which is in the fountain, for if thou do thou shalt have thy name bawled out in chapel. Thou shalt take the Student for what it is worth. If it slam thee thou shalt take another stroll and give it a chance to slam thee again. For the Student is a Meddler and will verily disclose thy most sacred secrets if thou choose to stroll with a Co-Ed. In chapel thou shalt put away all thy Spearmint from thee, neither shalt thou criticize the absent faculty, nor shalt thou cause thy neighbor any pain by attempting to sing.

Dr Parkhurst was the xpresiden't of Co,1bert and the girls, togethei' with J Louelline Parkhurst, had been studying during the greater part of a rainy afternoon. hAllirightf said Louelline, tithe sun is out and I do not be Ilieve it wiil sprinkle any more.

Slamming down their books they rushed out the door keeping 11p an excited chatter ' all the way to the held, about the fellows on the team, the new coach, and the Chances for winning the coveted state Champion- ' .ship cup. tiDo you think Alton is as good this year as he was last ?,, asked Josie. . ' iiBetter than ever, replied Louelline. It was known that Alton called at iiPI'CXiBWS whenever he deigned, and it was rumored that he was 11101e favored than any other of the numerous admirers of Louelline.

The second team Was to receive the ball. iiWho is that man playing fullback on the second team ?ii L011. 1 iiYou mean that littl'e man with the black hair? said Josie.

Quit this mooning around in front of the grandstand and get busy? This last was too much for Stubbs, and he replied quietly, III slipped? III will not have any lying excusesa Just then the coach thought his head had collided with the front end of a battering ram, and amid the shrieks of the girls he picked himself up from the midst of the wire fence which surrounded the field. Stubbs, already regretting what he had done, was standing with clowncast eyes, examining his bruised knuckles. IlYou may leave this field instantly, and never come back again? screamed the coach. Without a word, Stubbs walked to the bench, picked up his sweater and slowly made his way to the gym. Although there was no chance for St'ubbs in football at Colbert, it was then too late for him to enter any other college, so he c011- tinuecl in school, paying little attention to anything but his studies. Meanwhile, the glance which Stubbs had cast at the grande . stand had cost him more than being downed in any football scrim- mage. As Louelline had watched the lonely ligure leaving the field, a sense of sympathy for the stranger had come to her. day, as she walked to class with Jim Alton, she said, It you to bring that Mr. Stubbs over some time. and quiet, and I believe he is a nice fellow?

However, one clay not long after that, he saw Alton coming toward him, and noticed that Alton had just left Louelline. ilWell, old boy, your time has come? said Alton with a grin, as he towed Stubbs across the floor. After the meeting with the charming Louelline, it was not long until everyone noticed the 1111111- Stubbs waited around after class, and iIaccidentallyil walked down the campus with Miss Parkhurst. In fact, it seemed that Lou was almost the only friend that Stubbs had in Colbert, and that he paid little attention to any of the fellows. Perhaps his action on the field had not a little to ClO with this. However, the incident had some effect, and served to bring more unity between the different factions, so that Colbert won most of her games that year, including the big game with Kennard on Thanks- giving. To win the Thanksgiving game from her old rival was most important to Colbert, for the next time that either Colbert or Kennard had a championship team defeating every team until Thanksgiving, the winner of the Thanksgivingb Oa111e got the magnihcent state cham- pionship cup, to be retained pe1111a11e11tly. Duiing Stubb s year at Colbert, there had been no championship in the state, but everyone looked forward to the next year to determine between Kennard and Colbert which should keep the cup. At present the cup rested in the trophy room of Colbert. It was much admiredby all who saw it, but by none more than by Louelline Parkhurst, daughter of Colbertis president, and ardent partisan of that school. I11 fact, she had been heard to say in jest that she would almost sacrifice her life to keep the cup at Colbert. 1: :2: :1: :2: :k After a summer during which he had not failed to write once a week to Lou, Arthur returned to school, but not to Colbert.

Two hundred and Izivzefy-four Stubbs was made to feel more and more welcome by these three most pleasant people, and he began to have greater conhdence in the project which was in his mind. Very soon after dinner, D11. Parkhurst, pleading an important engagement, said goo-d-night. It was not long until Mrs. Parkhurst retired for the evening. Say what you please, a 00011 dinner will O1ive any man 111o11e H11e1ve ,but even with that Arthur Stubbs began to tremble as he thought llNow is a chance, if I only had the couragef But all he could do was to blush and' answer llYesli, and lINo , to Louellinels commonplace questions. On the other hand, she began to wonder if some of the commonplaces of hospitality had been omitted, and said, lllVIr. Stubbs, I am afraid you have not had a good time this eveninng ith, no, that iseIa-that wasn't it, , said Stubbs abruptly. If he could only get the flghting courage for which he was famous on the held! Although Louelline had been obliged to tell one or two men that she would be a sister to them, in justice to her it must be said that she was not prepared for these symptoms during a man's hrst call. IiWell, Mr. Stubbs, if that is not it, perhaps there is 50111ethi11g you wished to confide in an old friend of yours? May be an affair , in which you wished to ask the advice of one who stood by you at Colbert ?li Altho1101h she knew that Stubbs admired her, she had little idea of the words strugolino for utterance. She believed that she was helping this man of few confidences to ask her advice on some commonplace subject. All of which was perfectly natural to fem- inine curiosity, as they say in the Western stories. With hands tightly gripping the arms of his cl1ai1,l1e began: lIYou do not- you cannot understandaa l 1 ilWhy, tell 111e, and maybe I can help youfi said Lou, liWelleLou'elline,I-I love you? blurted Stubbs, Ilnot like '1 Now dont say i110? , a Colbert 111a11,-ayou will be doubly so if the other fellows around he1e,.-butl love you e-I have from the iirsttime I saw you. He strode towards her, reading in her frightened eyes the be- ginning of a comprehension which gave 111111 hope. This was indeed, not like the other fellows, nor was it like any other declaration she had ever heard. 1 Grasping her hands, he poured out these words, llLouelline, do you remember the first time I ever saw you,athe day you came down to the field? Since that time I have loved you,ethought of yo11,writte11 only to youedared to hope that some day my courage would come to 111e, and I could ask you to marry me.

He started to kiss her lips, and failing, pressed a kiss on her 11 8,11 d . :3: :3: 2:: :2: :2: It was Thanksgiving eve. Arthur Stubbs was wide awake, although the hour was eleven, and by all training rules he should have been asleep at nine. During those two hours, he had gone over and over the events of his college life. He had thought of the happy hours he had spent with Louelline, walking about the Colbert campus. He thought of the words she had spoken at his last meet- ing. His mind had been confused since these words. It shrank from considering the thing requested, and dwelt on the pleasure of the kiss which would be his reward. Then another scene recurred to his memory. It was that of his coach, as he had appeared on the held the night before. What were those last words of iiBudgetisil? Oh, yeseethat was it! Those were the words which would decide himw-llThe H 07207: of Kmmawd, boys, remember, you are lighting for her honor! Not for individual honor, not for personal glory, but for the old school which has brought you up,-wl1ich has. treated you right! All I have to say isaWin! or come off that field dead to the world Vi Arthur Stubbs arose, wrote five words on a slip of paper, and then was soon asleep, with the paper under his pillow. As Louelline eagerly tore open the telegram which she received 011 Thanksgiving morning, consternation took the place of eX- pectancy on her face as she read the live simple words, ill will not do it. , Signed, Arthui Stubbs. Dropping the yellow slip, she 1an to the telephone, and called the number of Jim Alton s club. iiHello, Jim? 011, Jim! I am just frightened to death about that game! You will have to play likeelike Purgatory, Jim! You will now, wonit you, Jim Pi, ' Lou was the pet of the school, and had privileges which no one else thought of taking. As Jim turned away from the phone with a sigh, he returned to a table on which was a litter of pawn tickets, poker chips, cards, and cigar stubs. In a cleared space was a paper on which Jim had been figuring how much he stood to win if Colbert won the game. He had bet every available cent on the outcome of the ga1ne,-had lisoakedii his own possessions, his friendsL-everything to get money to bet on Colbert. If he won, his poker debts could all be paid. If he lostea ?,, :2: :1: :1: :2: :1: At ten-thirty the two teams lined up for signals. The crimson of Colbert on the west waved in time to the blood-stirring Colbert song. The Kennardites on the east Haunted their purple and tore out their throats in a vain effort to drown out the enemy. After .. the preliminary signal practice was over, and the two rootersi crowds had already yelled themselves hoarse, the teams took their positions opposite each other. . Every neck was craned as the referee shouted, liCaptain Cross ready? Captain Alton ready ?i, and the shrill cry of the whistle announced that the great game for the championship of the state was on. As Arthur Stubbs sped down towards the ball, he had 1n mind an entrancing Vision of a girl 111 a white coat, adorned with a cream- colored Chrysanthemum. He had seen her leaning far out over the box with glasses scanning the field. He gritted his teeth, and booted the ball clear back to the Colbert fullback Alton. 1. iiConiJe on, Alton; come on, Alton? sang the crimson. When the whistle blew, Alton was under the mass of Kennard men, but he had brought the ball clear back to the center of the held. Lou was shrieking at the top of her voice, with heri'arms around her fatheris neck. Dr. Parkhurst had an eager liO'ht in his eyes as he watched the eXcitingb Otame. tCould he but have known the many things which depended upon that gan1.,e he too might have been less quietj iiNow, Lou, do .try and keep a little more quiet? said he.

Oh, Jim has the ballehe iseno! he is clown! Only three yards ll, b011, come on, Jimlll cried Lou, as the big fullback took the ball for a second time. But it was no use. The Kennard ends played perfectly. Alton failed to gain his distance, and on the third down, was forced to kick. As the ball soared through the air, every person of the thousands in the stands leaned forward as far as he dared, to see the fleet quarterback of Kennard gracefully catch the ball, and dart down the field like a wild thing, dodging here and there. The purple went crazy as he spun along for forty yards or more. At last he was downed near the center of the field. Then Kennard tried the crimson line. Three times did those waves of men strike together, but no impression could they make. There was a llbuntll as inoleskin struck on moleskin, a pile of indis- tinguishable forms, which would sway for a minute, then the whistle. Alas for Kennard, the ball had moved only a few yards in those three downs. And so it went. Time and again the stands were brought to their feet by a spectacular return. The game was a beautiful exhi- bition of the noblest of sports, between two evenly matched teams. It was two downs and then kick, for both teams. After what seemed but a few minutes to the spectators, and an age to the players, the whistle blew time for the first half. The ball was still near the center, and the score-board said, C O; K O. Louelline sank back exhausted into a Chair. ltIf I could only talk to Jimlil she exclaimed to her father. TlTake me around to the players, will you, papa .7, llIt is impossible? replied Dr. Parkhurst, TTBesides, the coach will be doing more good than you possibly could, my girl? The people in the stands were almost mad with excitement, and yell after yell volleyed out between the two sides from those who had any voice left. The Kennard team came running back on the field during a pandemonium from the purple side, and took their places on the bench. Then, from the other end, Came the Colbert bunch, led by the handsome Alton. As the team turned to take their seats they all saluted the box above, and a cream Chrysanthemum came Hutter- ing down at the feet of Jim Alton. He placed it under the rough canvas, next his heart. The. motion did not escape the eyes of a very sad Kennard man on the other bench. At the shrill blast of the whistle, the two teams, freshened by rest, made desperate by their coaches, and even almost to the pound, took their places to decide the most magnificent contest that had ever been fought on Colbert field. ' No one thought of sitting down now. Lou. was standing on. a Chair, Haunting a crimson banner, and gazing at Jim, as he coolly made ready for the kickeoff. Again the whistle blew. The ball spun around in the air, and was hnally caught by the Kennard half. He made a short return, and the ball was Kennarch in her own terri- tory. Again for a time the ball was kicked back and forth across the center line. i Once more the twenty-two forms bent low, the ball was snapped, and a fleet figure flashed out from the mass, disengaging himself from tacklers on the right and left. The crimson stand Went mad. Harlon, the fastest man on Kennard, was looseeloose for a touch- down, unless they stopped him. llNail that man! Nail that man Vi came from the crimson side, in a sort of hopeless Chant. At last, Jim Alton, running from behind, tackled the halfback on Colbertls twenty-yard line. However, the ball was far to one side, and there was but little Chance for a kick for goal. Two more times the purple tried the crimson line. It held like iron, under its own goal. Aftkick was the last Chance for a score. The Kennard fullback missed the goal, and the crimson was to kick out from the twe-nty-five yard line. Scoree C O ; K 0.
