Chanld Miami! New Miami! Days of old and days to be Weave the story of thy glory: Old Miami, herehs to thee! Aging in thy simple splendore Thou the calm and they the storm- Thou didst give them joy in conquest, Strength from thee sustained their arm. N ow of late, thyself envigored, Larger usefulness awaits; Hosts assemble for thy blessing, Youth and maiden throng thy gates. Thou shalt stand, a constant beacon, Crimson towers against thy shy; Men shall ever seek thy guiding, Power like thine shall never die. 1am1 Symphony 9 T0 hallow the traditions of the ttOld Miamih, treading With reverence the paths of her mighty sons of yore; To build honorably my share of the ttNeWK exemplify- ing the teaching of Bishop, Harrison and Swing, T0 revere every name and place of her history-woven past, consecrating my life to the development of her noblest future; To exalt her College T rinityeFaith, Love and Courage; faith in our fellows, faith in 0urse1ves,faith in our Alma Mater, faith that shall inspire zealezeal that shall conquer; Love of duty, love of fellow man, love of Miami; love that through us brightens the world beyond.

Now, judge him for yourself. HRaniyis', work in the elass-room is above reproach. The Profs say he is the least of their cares. His attitude, when on the campus, is always that of a gentleman.

SHAWER Shaffer is a BachelorsiiPh. B? we mean. Ango College is his Alma Mater. Shaffer can talk. Indeed, he can give a better eX- alnple of perpetual motion in that respect than any girl in the Normal School. This art was acquired up home in Spencerville literary societies and in the Franklin Literary Society. Ernest is also a vocalist of note and his favorite song, itO Gee , I Wish I Had a Girl? is a constant reminder to him of lost opportunities. This being his hrst regular year at Miami, it may be that some- one Will take pity on his tender age before June, 1912. ERNEST NELSON LITTLETON 51 This man not only looks and sounds like a Senator, but really is one. When tiErniell is not making addresses before the Senate he spends his time fluttering up and down High Street, selling aluminum. When men come to Oxford we often hear them warble-xWho is iErnief What is he, that all our swains sur- round him? Then comes the thundering Chorus-iiWhy donlt you know that man, heis first lieutenant in Joe Bachelors com- panyfi KIYOSHI TOMIZAWA This representative of the land of the Chrysanthemum is known throughout the University simply as iiTommy? This obviates all difficulty in introducing him.. Not only on account of his enormous strength but also on account of his knowledge of Jiu Jitsu, has iiTommyii been very valuable in class rushes. The most touching thing in the University is to listen to this little cherry-blossom read German With that rich Japanese accent. Tommy is the essence of the grit and pluck of his countrymen aren,t you, Tommy? EDWIN OWEN CHAPMAN, A Y Edwin comes to us from the city. We would expect him to be far more solphisticated than he really is. But he is uns0phis- tication personified. To see him strolling through the campus in the springtime, his genial smile casting around peace and con- tentment, as the reaper doth his scythe, is a picture only sur- passed by the rising sun. When this little glow-worm has ceased to glimmer round these historic walls, the catacombs of Rome Will seem as a Parisian cafe in comparison to Miami. Vale iiChappieP JOHN MXHIICRS MCCASLIN, B GD II iiMathersii comes to us from that famous town of Sidney, Where nearly everybody is a Democrat. Ever since his advent into this community he has been striving to find out what the Profs donit know. He is the ttHead-Knockert 0f the University. This ac- counts for his amiable disposition. His favorite expression is ttMucha Bligelit Through long practice, he has at last succeeded in rendering this expression With the true Bowery twang. Up to date this is his greatest achievement, though we are expect- ing something startling from his research work into the great question, ttWhat the eee there, we almost told the secret of his highest ambition. Oh, well, Mathers expects at least to be a Justice of the Supreme Court. HUGH BALLARD SOLLARS, A Y Behold the man Who wields the big stick in Miami University. Modest Hugh. We notice that Hugh shows a marked preference to the Western girls When usheringeWhatis the dope on this, Ballard? Hughis versatility is remarkable. His prowess is shown in athletic Circles, in the administration of the University and in all social gatherings. But in spite of all his heavy cares and duties and worries, he bears it like a Spartan With a face absolutely devoid of any expression whatsoever. CARL EVERETT VVHITICSELL Steady, stout, stocky Whitesell is a business man, as many of the ads in this book demonstrate. Aluminum ware is his real line, however, and his experiences in this business have been used quite often to pass the hours away at Miami Union Hall. Carl does not make much noise, but he usually gets What he goes after.

CLARE N ClC TRICBICR S PROULL 53 Let not appearances deceive. Clarence Treber Sproull, better known as iiBillyii is a star in whatever he undertakes. He made quite a hit in the French play and Greek was a cinch for him. Billy has a most bewitching smile which will not come off. He was especially fortunate in remaining in Oxford to vote for tiIkei, Huffman, and thus escaped Judge Blairis grand jury in his home town. XVILLIAM DELAWARE HARRIS. B to H Bill is the most immaculate in his appearance of any man in school. However, we love him for more than his immaculate- ness. Chiefest of his lovable qualities is his consideration for all those with whom he comes in contact. To hear him when under Morpheusi charm one cannot refrain from calling him tiSteam- boat Bill? Delaware, may your various toots remain with us until they join in one exquisite harmony with the great final toot of Gabrielis horn. Bill is waging a losing fight, at Miami against tobacco. But this is only one of those little tragedies which wrench our every heart. XVALTER JOHN LEACH Walter has achieved quite a reputation in timing ohapel-prayers. To see his inSpired countenance when he is holding the stop- watch is remarkable. This propensity for watches, eto., dates back to a time when Walter traded a mule for a large block of stock in a now defunct Oxford clock factory. The stunning ver- dure of Walteris overcoat lends color to his story that he bought it after night. Walter is a hero of many battlesmpugilistic, economic, athletic and summer-soholastioeknown only to himself. GEORGIA RELLA ANDERSON J. WESLEY MORRIS, cb A x1! Georgie has come to us after two years in the normal college and one of teaching. Therefore she does not enter into the frivolity of less sober minded people. Yet once in a while she does like a good time with the girls. No man has as yet gained her favor for she is too much in love with her career; unless perhaps it is a iiman back homeii who has made all Miami men lose favor in her eyes. In our three years acquaintance with Wesley we have been able to find little out about him because of his modest and retiring nature. He is a man of action rather than words. But he is a man of splendid action. liWesfi on first acquaintance, impresses one as taking himself too seriously, but to know him is to love him. Wesley, may your gentle disposition and faculty of minding your own business win you many times as many hearts as they have here at Miami. tMy, but its warm this eveningJ OSCAR WAYNE WHITEMAN A quiet man; indeed a man of very few words.

We do not feel that it would be a breach of promise to state at this time that Gordon for some time past has been under the personal supervision of Ringling Bros. For many years this firm has been anxiously awaiting Gordonis arrival into their midst, whereupon they expect to put on one of the greatest loop- the-loop stunts and human basting thread imitations known to the circus world. To say that Gordonis future is tirosyt would be putting it mildly. EMMA VVASSERMAN 55 Once there was a girl who was a Junior and she went to school at Miami. She lived out in town and never came around except to Classes. Then she only spoke very meekly when she was spoken. to, or maybe she only nodded her head. And she was German- nicht wahr? MARJORIE REBECCA HULICK, CD T Hm! speaking of spring-how is your left eyebrow? Be calm, dear reader, this is merely a snatch of Marjories conversation with one of her numerous admirers. Her ttpictureii look was put on to deceive the professors, for in real life she is about the luckiest girl going. You can always trace her path by the ink spots, or broken furniture-or discarded lovers; which she leaves behind. C. O. SESSAMAN iiSessy,, is an orator. Alternate in his Freshman year, he made the Debating Team when a Sophomore, and this year he is again in the line-up against Butler.

ERNEST FREDERICK MARCH, B 69 H Ernieis heart has been burnt almost to a cinder by the internal raging of that. great question, iiTo be or not to be?

And then at other times he raises his deified face, and, his eyes shooting fire, like a Roman candle, he shrieks iiViotoryII I shall beV Of course, this may be a very common thing up at Wooster, but it certainly is very annoying to all WhO come in contact With him. We hope this question of his will be decided in the very proximate future. But Frederick, our arms shall always be open for you, so any time you feel that you are going to be overcome, just stumble over. NELSON SCHWAB, B GD H Here is the Miami representative of tiThe Idle Dutch? If Docis actions spoke louder than his words we certainly should be all deaf by this time. But it itwas ever thus from childhoodis earliest hour? Doo,s crookedness is accounted for by the fact that he had early training in a pretzel factory.

Paul has loved, and we are glad to say he has not lost. Love hath claimed this child of nature as her own. When his heart was touched, way back in his Freshman year, he was fairly jerked from out the un- derbrush. And now he bears so well tithe grand old name of gentleman? Giffin is not to be blamed for all this, for he comes from a place where love is the staff of life. Paulus, may. this sweet dream of love continue until it becomes necessary for a harsh voice to say, itsay, Deany! Wake upIW JAMES STUART LEVICRING, B 69 II 57 tiLazy, laughing, languidii Jimmie. James has the jaw of a cracksman, but fortunately he uses it to break the line of the enemy instead of safes. For many years he has imbibed the love inSpiring atmosphere of Piqua.

But, Stuart, hear this carefully-iiLook not upon the cigarette When it is lit, for that protoplasmic will-power of yours will not stand many more dents. lRUCE MCDILL, CD A x1! This blue-eyed lad reminds one of one of the princes held cap- tive in the London tower. And to say that he is a prince would be saying the least that we could. The only fault we can iind With Bruce is that he is continually butting into other peoples business. And he never stops talking. Remember, Bruce, when you have departed this life, that the old world will still revolve, and not seem to feel the loss of your constant Chatter and ad- Vioe. Bruceis strength, however, lies in his ability as a grocery clerkeand he can really be the ice man, too. LUTHER M. DAVIS tiDaviesii hails from Jackson, Ohio, iiby goshii and Jackson always sends good men to Miami. Luther is not so terrible as he looks, for his tastes run toward literary work, and the journalistic field is the scene of his life-work. Having already had valuable ex- perience as printers devil on the forces of the newspapers of his home town, he will rise quickly in his profession. The itMiami Student is indebted to him for his staff work; but most of his time is consumed in North Dorm, in keeping nAndy and iiTonyii in the paths of righteousness. EARNESTINE ELIZABETH ROUDEBUSH When this girl came to school last fall she wrote in every one of her books, ttMake hay While the sun shines? and then went to work. So far as anyone knows she has never stopped a minute, yet. She has worn a private path from her room to the library and keeps a seat reserved there day and night. She is not a relative of Geraldine, the giggler, either. THOMAS JAMES SIMPSON T. J. Simpson, hah! hah! hah! ttSunny Jim? ttThe Little Min- istertt of the Junior Class. A good boy-indeed, the model boy of Martins Ferry and Miami. Jimmy means well and we respect him for his standards and like him for his everlasting good nature. What the Presbyterian Church of this Village Will do When Mr. Simpson transfers his smile to other diggings is a matter of much interest. Wherever he goes though, we cannot imagine ttJimmyti doing much harm, for he strikes only at the services of things. ADA CLIMER Did you know that all school teachers WhO wear glasses are not cross and sour? Well, though your experience back in the little red school house may have given you that impression, you would not forget it if you saw Ada smile. The only reminder of her profession Which she has kept is the dignity Which one gets from having exercised authority. HOWARD NICHOL KRAMER The classical atmosphere of Oxford nas produced in the fellows of the town, an inclination for hard study, Which, however, is never satisfied on account of the diversity of their other interests. Kramer, though not a resident of the city, lives near enough to be olassiiied as from Oxford. His inclination for study has re- sulted in the mastery of Greek. However, his chief claim to glory is the fact that he can and does drive in from the country and beat the seven-thirty bell. How it can be done is a mystery to many Who cannot get across the campus in time to accomplish this. 58 HAROLD MAISH When Harold came to Miami he was so light that he had to walk edgewise to keep from Iiying. But heavy service on the g m floor has made a veritable giant of him. In the spring and fall he keeps everyone in a state of nervous anxiety by his reck- less riding through the campus on his famous 01d ttIron Horse? Harold speaks French beautifully with a delightful German ac- cent. He is a general favorite of Mick Baderis. We are expect- ing great things of you, Harold, at the Rosencrans, wedding. HARRIET BRANDON EARLY 59 This is one-half of a sort of twice effect which has been floating around the University for three years. Helen Sanford is the other. So far no man has ever had the courage to try breaking it up- and perhaps it is better so, for we have an idea that this dainty aristocratic little person might be very hard to please in the mat- ter of men. GUY ALLEN LITTLE Guy is from Remington, Indiana, wherever that is. We hope all the people there are as Cheerful as Little is. Some people call him an tiOld Man Grumpf and as yet he has done nothing to free himself from the accusation. Guy was always to be seen report- ing for practice during the last football season and Calf, Stone has in him a man handy with the weights. GERTRUDE BELDON, Q?

AVA FLORINE SWEITZER Ava has what you would call a heavenly smileebeeause she is so good and her conscience never need trouble her over slighted lessons. It may be, too, that smiles and good nature go with her name. Anyway, she can smile and she does smile and when we see her do it we wish she would smile some more. HARRY E. FRANZ We are all proud to call Harry our friend. Good natured and ac- oommodating, he can always be counted on to grant a favor or help someone out of a diflioulty. Class spirit and school spirit he has in abundance. Much of Franzls time is spent in the Manual Arts Department, where he is quite an accomplished workman. And last, but not least, may it be said, Harry is one who wears a pompadour beoomingly. MARTHA GERTRUDE FOWLER Gertrude loves her books so much that no one knows her very well. Mathematics seems to be her favorite studyefor she has been overheard night after night lovingly repeating ttimaginary points on the line of infinity or phrases of like nature. But if we all made an A grade in mathematics, we, too, might rave over it in our dreams. EDWARD DAVIS CROMLEY It was through this man that Amanda now cuddles up amongst the hills of Fairfield County, Ohio. ttDoot, loves to sulk around the tortuous recesses of the library, seeking whom he may de- vour.

He does not wish to place himself under the spot-light, but on account of modesty and reservedness prefers, as the little flower in Grayls poem, ttTo blush unseen and waste his sweetness on the desert air? 62 ALMA STEVENS Alma can certainly make things moveewhy, you ought to see the way she works physics problems. In the proper costume she makes the best specimen of the itradical suffragettet, that ever appeared in life, and she actually believes that women should have the right to propose. But, Alina, from the number of times that out-of-town man has been here this term, we judge that you Will not need it. ERNEST E. SCHWARTSTRAUBER, Cb B K 63 This crumb of the long lost loaf of Puritanism has won the hearts of all the Co-Eds, WhO, to a girl, have absolute faith in his utter harmlessness. His resonant voice shall ever echo among the halls of the Literary Society. He is Virtuous as the Roman, he dares not be otherwise. iiSohwartzielsi, friends have now for a long time been urging him to become a bar-tender that he may study more closely the social conditions of the day. ttErnie, here is every success. HAZEL ELIZABETH HEATER See this pale little girl With such a frightened look? Well, no wonder she looks so frightenedefor she has a dark secret to hide. This horrible thing she cherishes deep down in her heart-over in the darkest cornerebut at last she has been discovered. Listen! it is the love of money! And if you doubt it, just notice how closely she guards the treasury of the Y. W. C. A. HERBERT MINTON ROSENCRANS, tb A Q! That itPeggylt Maish has been asked to be best man for Herbert is all that can now be deiinitely learned of Herbertts future nup- tials. It is rumored that the bride is to be Miss Wona De Men- sion. The athletic field, as the only suitable place for the wed- ding, has been secured and the telephone men are already at work putting up the triumphal arch. iiMiCkii Bader is to direct the bridal Chorus from a monoplane. Many people hesitate to con- gratulate the future bridegroom for fear of embarrassment in mistaking him for the Ringling Bros. blind? R0514: PARKER PIERCFU A Z ttLady Indifference? how we long to see you smile! Your face promises that you might be charming if anything could arouse your interest. But alas! nothing has yet been able to excite you unless perhaps we have not been mistaken in detecting the quiver of an eyelash at the sight of a certain large and manly form Which so often happens to be near. BERYL MARIE ZEMER Did you ever notice this sad-eyed little creature-and do you know What is the matter With her? During the two years she was at Wooster some horrid old professor must have frightened the child out of a year or two of her growth. Our only hope is that the peaceful quiet of this classic Village Will restore the color to her Cheeks and courage to her heart. HELEN LOUISE CLARK Hats off to the only girl in Chemistry 111! Her rosy cheeks and merry eyes deny that she is guilty of the Chargeenothing but spectacles and angles seem suitable for such a course. But behind her merry looks there lurks also a faculty for making things go and a loyalty to anything once begun, which will one day be dis- covered by the public just as it has unearthed her chemistry record. HELEN Rosr: SANFORD The other half of the Early-Sanford combination is now before you. If they were not both so quiet and studious and so very ladylike, we should be tempted to call this an awful tterush? They always do the same thingsebut it might be interesting to know Which one decides What these things are to be. 64 65 EFFIE MAY JONES, cp T Some one has said that a philosopher is one ttwho gropes around in the dark for something Which is not. there? The only differ- ence between Effie and a philosopher is that she gets ttith Whether it is there or not. From her meek little walk you never would guess it, but she is as mighty as if tther footsteps approached on horseback? MARCUICRITE STETTICR This is the tall statuesque blond who glides along With the air of a queen. This dignity she no doubt acquired from her position as assistant to the Dean of Women. Anyway, she takes her po- sition and herself more seriously than anyone else in the insti- tution and if she does not manage everything it isntt her fault.

The brilliant youths and the maidens. Noted for prowess in all things and for excellence in their studies. Striving toward a lofty goal, and leading all the other Classes. Loud from the near neighborhood comes the noisy roar of the Seniors. Trying by surplus of spluttering to drown out all of the others. And Closely following them, and trying in vain to excel them Struggles the Junior class, weighed down by its numerous burdens. And far away in the distance, the feeble, shrill pipe of the Fresh- man, Makes a faint sound for a moment, and then dies away into si- lence. Lo, midst this confusion and turmoil, calmly stands the Sopho- more Class, And needs not the aid of much boasting to bring them forth into notice. They spend not their time in shouting itBehold, were the class that does things, With sound judgment and good common sense, they talk not but really do things. In their secret aSpirations, they hope not that they may equal. The present Junior class, for already do they surpass them. The Class of ,thirteen stands together; they believe that liin union there is strength. And with hearty co-operation, they work for the glory of all. From the very Iirst day of the year they made a hit with the Profs. By being prepared to recite whenever occasion demanded. But not alone in intellect does this wonderful class excell, On the held of other exploits, they take first place as well. There was a mighty conflict, waged between Freshies and Sephs, The men doing battle together, the maidens cheering them on. In three events they contested: the struggle was gory and grim, The Freshmen put up a brave fight for lads so young and green. But after the struggle was over, and the wild cheers had some- what subsided The SOphomores held the field, and they were proclaimed the victors. 67 The Sephs on the football team are among the best players: The girls have a basketball team that can be surpassed by none other; The Madrigal Club and the Glee Club simply cannot be run with- out them. Even some of the worthy Faculty might follow their good ex- ample. For in matters of Chapel decorum, this class has set up for a model, And all of them sing the hymns and time the prayers of Dean Minnioh. Without the aid of a dictionary, they understand all his allusions. And appreciate his description of the beauties of art and nature. Newton, so history says, found out by the fall of an apple, That gravity was a great force, and ought to be studied, etc., But a law that is much more important in this present age of advancement. Was but recently discovered by one of this class of such fame. While out on a basketball trip, in a moment of direst need, ttBustertt Ashton discovered that telegrams could be sent from swift moving trains. This Class heeds all Prexyis demands: they do not make paths on the campus. They list to the voice of the Dean, and break not her rules for the maidens. In the future that lies before them, therets work for each one to do. Some of them will be doctors for they,ve already had several cases. Some of them will be lawyers as they possess great powers of persuasion. And several of them will be artists, who are good at making faces. But whatever they choose to become, they will be the hrst in their line, As in present college activities, they are superlatively ultra. In fact, if you will observe them, without prejudice or malice. And compare them with the others, you Will say Hats off to the Sophsfi HELEN BOWMAN. 68 69 Harvey M.

IIWell, poring over your books as usual, I see. It is always pleasant to hear words of well merited praise heartily spoken, so we smiled modestly at our uninvited guest. IIMyfl he said, as he glanced about the room, then curled himself luxuriantly into the depths of his big chair, tIitls fine, I can tell you, to be at home once more? ltAt home ?ll IIYes, at home.

I call them arrogant autocrats, and, mark my words, my dear, they never reverence me till long after theyIve left their Alma Mater, and gone out into the world, and then some line day I happen to run across one of them on the street of some far off city-for I get pretty much all over the world in the course of my travels-eand this once indifferent and haughty Senior immediately Clasps my hand with such fervor that it brings tears to my eyes. Funny old world, isnit it? IISpeaking of the Juniors, I really consider them rather prom- ising, why they actually show signs of sometimes appreciating my presence while I am still in their midst.

C. 96 Enter, Class of N ineteen-Twelve HE sun smiled clown upon the Miami Campus, Sept. 21st last, more brightly than it ever had be- fore. The roof of the Auditorium was gilded with its beams, but still its interior was being lighted up by a eounter-illuniination which fairly equaled it in its brillianey. This dazzling light was radiating from a body of about one hundred-twenty girls who hail registered the day before in the Freshman Class of the Normal College of Miami University. They stood, on this day, awaiting with hushed breath, the appear- ance of the long. forinidable-looking file in which the Faculty advances to the rostrum. And thus was the Freshman Normal Class launched upon its brilliant career. An inereditably short period of time elapsed before they were absolutely aware. when starting out. of just what room they wished to reach anrl where it was situated. Only a possible once or twice did any of Professor Burke's music students find them- selves in Doctor TYilrhnan's habitat hearing the llOrles of HoraceH when they should have been rapturously drinking in every word of a dissertation on llpiteh, duration and pulse presented with pianola illustrations. Soon were they able to sing the HMiami Hymn and llMareh Song with great pathos tto the hearersl and, in fact, they caught that intangible something referred to as llThe Spirit', with little rliHieulty and in almost no time. Indeed, by October, they were witnessing the star plays on the gridiron with as many thrills as could possibly be felt, even by those who were here as 97 far back as when the Institution actually contributed to History. To be quite frank, they were prodigiouseantl Prof. Feeney will corroborate the statement, for was it not they who solved the colossal problem of the actual Hutilitarian value of Arithmetic in the grades? Doctor Heekert. no doubt, would also agree for he said, himself, that, by means of their examination papers, many of them had contributed entirely new ideas to the Science of Psychology. One event which marked an epoch in their social history, was the reception given by the Sophomore Normal Class for the Fae- ulty and the Freshmen. The affair was both delightful and surprising. The latter because the Sophomores had the audacity to invite the faculty and then turn around and take off their pet Characteristics right before their faces. The Freshmen looked around with awe to see the anger surge into the faces of the lTrofsll but met with merriinent inexpressible instead. And so it was not long before the llClass of 1912', was well initiated into the intricacies of life in Miami and though they faced many problems and met with many stumbling blocks, such as llhnal exams? they, like the proverbial llhttest? always sur- vived. In truth, they became the pride of the Faculty for they not only outnumbered any of the preceding classes that have registered in the Normal College, but they surpass tthey think, if nobody else doesy all the others in quality as well. Time will tell and they are willing tnowl to have time inspect their achieve- ments.

Thanks is due to Prof. F. C. VVhitcomb for its forward advance. The number of students enrolled in this department is constantly increasing. The Manual Arts classes have a joint Class organization known as the Manual Arts Club. They believe in the training of Tithe Head, the Heart and the Hand? and to this end regular meet- ings are held every two weeks in which problems relating to various phases of the Manual Arts are discussed. The meet- ings are also social affairs and with their ardor for arts, good times are interspersed. OFFICERS President ...................................

The loss of nine of the 09 ttM men would almost dishearten any coach, or squad, yet this was hardly the case when such a situation existed in the Miami camp last September, for about McCoy and Levering in the backfield and Harley and Engel, as veterans of the line, Coach Iddings began the process of build- ing a team which should uphold the gridiron honor of old Miami, and toward this end he worked faithfully, by a long, slow process developing speed and eliminating fumbles until the six new men working with their more experienced comrades, could perform the functions that would complete the workings of a true football . machine. But Rymer and Custerborder and Brower had been men of experieiice$111en who had met together on the football field for four years and their positions were not to be filled by a few weeks of training, hence the fact that ours was not a winning team is no disparagement upon Mr. Iddingis ability as a coach, for no Miami coach was ever more faithful in the performance of his duty. 108 109 Upon Dr. Young again fell the re- sponsibility of developingr the second team, anrl also of coaching the first true Freshman team that the school has boasted. Kut the praises of this squad are to be mentioned later, so the present will be devoted to men and games that made up Varsity's season of 1910. Of course the man toward whom all eyes were turned when school op- ened last fall was illrishtH McCoy, the man who ha:l filled the position of left halfback during the three previous seasons, and the chosen leader of the 1910 squad. Anrl upon ilMacf'i from the very first fell the brunt of the back-lielrl work. During the previous seasons his defensive position ha'l Coachlddings been that of fullback. but now. in the absence of Custenborrler, he was obliged to assume the position of defensive quarter. For this his remarkable speed made him especially well qualitietl. Few Miami captains have played a harder and more consistent game, a game for his team's, not for his own glory, anzl the way in which he has borne his many athletic laurels has placed him in a position of the highest respect and esteem of every Miami student. The other experienced man in the back-tield was Levering, who had playe'l the fullback position in every game in which a Miami team ha:l participated since his arrival at Oxford in September of 1908. TlJini'U is an all round athlete. having won his liMil in football, basketball and track, and his highly com- mendable work during the past season has demonstrated his ability to care for the responsibility thrust upon him by his teaniniatesethe captaincy of the 1911 team. Under adverse conditions, and having to cope usually with larger schools whose teams were under the direction of graduate managers, we consider Manager Pults as having clone all that a manager could do for his team, and, although the schedule which he prepared was somewhat lighter than usual, it was well adapted to the team for which it was prepared, and makes Mr. llults worthy of Miainils thanks. After a week of winrl-sprints, half-inile trots and scrimmages, in weather better adapted to tennis than football, the first con- test of the season was held-October 1st, on Miami field, VVil- niington being the team to start hostilities. The race for posi- tions harl been a merry one an'l there was as yet no tixerl line-up, but the event was in truth a coming-out party for several new eligibles as White- man, Wilson, McGiniiis, Clark, Her- ald. Rourlebush and Parker here made their initial appearance in Varsity cir- cles. The team which had in previous years been merely a matinee perform- ance, consisting mostly of farces and light comedy, this time proved to be of a more serious nature bordering upon tragedy tfrom the Miami point of View for the Quakers had sent over a stronger team than usual, be- sides having the advantage of a week more of practice and an additional game. The playing on both sides was decidedly ragged and of the true olcl style, line-plunging type, the only features introduced under the new Assistant Coach Young 110 rules being the numerous penalties. Baker being out because of hoonsii the team was without a punter, and in this feature Varsity was clearly out- classed. Harley, Engle and Leach showed occasional bursts of their old- time form and the work of the trio of new men filling the center of the line is worthy of eonnnendation. Par- ker's work at half and Clark's at end was also good. Levering scored the only touchdown in the third quarter. A week later Coach Iddings moved his squad to Danville and laid siege to the goal of Central Uiiixreiisityis team annexed a safety, thus making the final score Central 12, Miami 2. Then followed a week without a game, but not without the customary sessions with the tackling dummy and Freshman squad. Johnston was sent to guard, while Herald and Routle- bush shared honors at quarter, so with this lineup DePauw was met OC- tober 22nd in what proved to be the fiercest game of the season. It is also interesting to note that the 10 to 0 score recorded the First defeat of Var- sity on the home field since 1906. Miami was clearly outplayed, as well and for the first time in several years was forced Capt. t'Irishr McCoy, Halfback to return with the score against the invaders. The green line failed to stop the bucks of the heavy Central back- field, which, before the Close of the second quarter, had scored twice. In the third quarter, however, that true Miami spirit that never fails, came to the rescue, and line men were able to put up an almost impregnable defense, while the backs made their distance time and time again. Baker had been placed at right-half, and to the distance gained by his long, high punts the safety of the Miami goal was largely due. Near the Close of the game Uimii Clark 111 -the blue ribbon team of Kentuckye as out-weighed Whiteman and Harley, Guard and Tackle and out-generaled, but still in'TiVid- ual, stellar work was in evidence, f o 1' repeatedly did Harley and Engle break through the DePauw line and nail the runner before he was fairly started, and seldom have the rooters seen a pair of ends perform better than did Leach and Clark. Now we are to approach true tragedy, enterethe dark lady tCineinnati, by namei. Again the Miami supporters moved, almost en masse, to the River City, not quite so boisterous in singing Varsityis praises this time, and leaving more of their excessive cash safely stored in the old steins over the mantles and offering less at five to one Jim Levering, Fullback bargains to the sons of old lsrael, more commonly known as the HAcad- emsfi and llCo-Opsf, For this display of caution much commendation may be given, for it was not necessary to be a direct decendant of Walter Camp to see that Ciney had decidedly the better of the argument, especially as far as officials was concerned, for though she fumbled frequently, al- lowed Clark and Leach to spoil her forward passes and was outpunted by Baker, she succeeded in keeping the ball in Miamils territory during most of the game, and thus made possible Heuekls field goal from the 28-yard linee-the only score of the game. lakeris sensational, though not sue- eessful, run following his interception of a pass to Cineyls left end was the most spectacular feature of the game. llBill Engle, Tackle Nor did November 5th bring a Change of luck. Fighting till the last whistle blew and playing a rather hard luck game, Miami was defeated by Marietta. Four years ago the strong eleven from that college was beaten for the first time in seven years on its own held-and it lost to Miami. Twice since had it suffered similar humiliation, but this time revenge came and when the hnal count was taken seventeen points were discovered to have been accumu- lated by the Ohio llBoilermakers? while the Oxford score sheet re- mained Clean. This game marked the permanent shift of Clark to quarter and Whiteinan to guard and only the highest praise can express the faithfulness with which these two new men fulfilled their duties during the rest of the season. Once more the scene Changesethis time more action was added, the more spectacular appeared and very naturally greater appre- eiation was showed by the audienceefor all this, thanks must be extended to Wittenberg, which team Closed the home season here on November 12th. The Visitors were at no time able to destroy, by their line Charges, the defense established by White- man, Wilson, McGinnis and the two tackles, nor to withstand the Charges and successful passes of the Varsity back-tieltl. Prugh replaced Parker at right end thus making his debut in the football world. Of the nineteen points scored, Levering may claim fourteen and Clark hve. It was the only decisive Victory of the seasonathe only time that the rooters were enthusiastic enough to proclaim victory and count the score. The following Saturday being an open date, a little performance was scheduled with Doctor Youngls first year menaancl it was worth going to see, for the way that bunch of Freshmen fought and protected their goal made a better game in many ways than had been wit- nessed this season by most lljliaini en- thusiasts. In the second half Varsity rallied, but the new men had also aC- quired this faculty, so as far as being able to score was concerned Varsity was but little more fortunate than be- fore. To make a long story short, the game ended in a scoreless tiea Varsity had had a good practice and the Freshmen had cinched their fame. All season had rumors floated down from lnillanapolis telling of a won- derful man named Thomas and of his Leach, End 112 113 intentions to defeat Miami by his excellent kicking and line plung- ing abilities. On Thanksgiving day the Chance came and indeed it was a case of 2Thomas vs. Miami? Had this man been behind a strong line, affairs might have been more serious for the Oxford bunch, but as it was, his place and drop kicks were repeatedly smothered and his bucks stopped, not, however, until he had made good gains. Both teams were somewhat weak on defense, but still able to make the desperate stand that would save their own goal when occasion demanded. The contest was featured by the splendid work of McCoy, who played throughout like a demon. Dodging, twisting and using the other tricks of an open-held runner, he called for the unwilling applause again and again as he ran back Butler,s long punts, twenty-flve and thirty yards. The forward pass was used but little by either team, both preferring to gain by bucks and end runs; place and drop kicking was resorted to whenever either eleven got within striking distance drop kick failed to count for them. In the last quarter Miami, encouraged by the reappearance of McCoy at right half, rushed Butler off their feet, but several ill-timed penalties spoiled Chances for a touchdown. Finally, in the last few minutes of play, Lev- ering dropped back for a place kick, but before he could make it, time was called, and the season ended with another scoreless tie. As a result of their nights of practice and hours of contest, eleven men now wear the coveted football 2M? McCoy Clark - Harley Levering McGinnis Engel Roudebush VVhiteman Leach Baker XVilson But this does not mean that they, alone, deserve praise, for three other men lacked only a few halves of play, and a full second team worked equally hard, but received honors decidedly less. To them real thanks is due. 1910 Record of the goal posts. All of these at- tempts, with the exception of Lev- ering,s first place kick, went wild. It was a bitterly contested game, the ball see-sawing back and forth across the field. The red and white threatened repeatedly to score, but the Butler line held like a stone wall, twice just in time to save a score for Miami-a once on their five-yard line and another time on the three-yard. Butler then kicked out of danger. In the third quarter McCoy was injured and taken out temporarily for rest. The Hoosiers looked strong during this period, but a iiJimii Clark.

To devote much space to elaborate praises of individual achievements and excep- tional merits would hardly be prop- though playing his first year as a regular on the varsity, his four years of high school experience and the training received under Coach Iddings in 1909 had given him a good knowledge of the game. He was the heaviest man on the team, strong, and of a builrl well adapted er here. The past was not a spectacular sea- son, nor was it marked by the great displays of bucks and clashes that make the players of today the heroes of tomorrow, all this be- Baker, Halfbuck cause it was a new team, the majority of the men playing their Erst season-eall did their bestr this can be honestly saideand most of them played consistently. V llRecii lVilson, ill, was perhaps the newest to the game, for few Miami men had ever seen him in football togs before the night that he reported for practice and stated his determina- tion to make the team. Yet he played well the center position, passing accurately and proving himself a worthy opposition to the offense of the rivals. Guard McGinnis is a Sophomore and al- 115 McGinnis, Guard for line work, and, had his speed and aggres- siveness equalled his size a more ideal guard could not have been desired. thitemain and Roudebush, Quarter Johnston, of the class- es of ,12 and ,13 respective, also possessed the physiqnes of good linemen and either was well adapted for the guard position, had he but pos- sessed more experience. That a rosy-Cheeked, Glee Club star would attempt football was some- what of a surprise, so when iiCLll'len Johnston, by mere pluck and hard work succeeded in land- ing a place on the first squad and became one of the linear-Mi, men, he could not but win the ap proval of his schoolmates. XVhiteman possessed more experience and was the better lighter, and the ability that he dis- played from time to time and such occasion- a1 bursts of strength and speed as the eonw test at Marietta brought forth, mark him as promising material for the 1911 squad. Four new, or practically new, men were candidates for the ends. Leach, who substituted in enough games to make an 11M1, last season, was this year enabled by his gain in speed and tack- ling ability to offset the advantage lost by his lack of weight and so easily claimed the job on the right Hank. His work was as near to the spectacular as any of the season With the shift, Parker, substitute half- back, was sent to end, where he remained un- til replaced by Prugh before the Wittenberg game. Both of these candidates are Sopho- mores and both bid fair to a future football career. Prugh had spent the first of the season in the second team backfield and from his work there has been demonstrated his ability to fill any position open to a man of one hun- dred and forty pounds. Next to the ends, came the quarter, as far as complications were concerned. Herald, 111, and Rondebush, 113, alternated at the 1iShortyh Herald, Sub Quarter and his ability to place himself in positions danger- ous to his oppo- nents showed his natural tendencies to the game. itJimh Clark was first Chosen for the job on the left, and filled it sat- isfactorily, being a sure taekler, a speedy runner and a person capable of receiving difficult passes, but near the middle of the season was placed at quarter, where he played the remaining games. In both posi- tions his work was highly commend- able and it can truthfully be said that the degree of success attained by the 1910 team is in no small measure due to the work of this Sophomore. ParkerfandJPrugh. Sub Ends p i V o t job during the hrst half of the season. In Octo- ber, Agerter, of 108 and 109 f a m e , came, played part of one game, re- ceived an injured hand and was forced to withdraw. Similar misfortune fell upon the other two, so that by the time the contest at Cincinnati was ended it was evident to Coach Iddings that he must train a new field captain. Uim'i Clark was the man. Russell Baker, 113, like Leach, won his iiMh in ,09, but from a line position, so he may well be considered a new man as a halfback. But he was one of the coach,s best, for, although not being able to perform the feats Of Open fleld running that made iiCussy-U 11Curleyi1Johnston, Sub Guard 116 ehis predecessor-famous, he did possess a punting ability not equaled by a scarlet player for many years past. Adding to this his line plunging and defensive qualities and you have a worthy position-mate for Captain McCoy. Mention must also be made of the work of Himmelright at guard and Butler at quarter. It is not necessary to give further words of praise to the work of the veterans, Harley, Engle, McCoy and Levering;- they were the necleus about which the new team was to grow and by their former experience the new ilelevenil must be bound until time and experience should give it strength. But we have seen enough of the past-now for a look into the future and a glimpse of the coming season. Almost on the Varsity 117 PROSPECTS At the close of the 1910 season prospects for the greatest team in the schools history in 1911 were so bright that Manager Pixler felt justified in securing for Miami a real football schedule. Much objection was raised by the student body when Miami en- tered the Ohio Conference, and the complaint was in no way lessened when last seasons schedule showed no games with im- portant conference teams. In company with Mr. Bartlow, Man- ager Pixler made a trip, visiting up-state conference colleges, and from this trip the following schedule resulted: Sept. 30-VVilmington at Oxford Oct. 7eOhio State at Columbus Oct. MaKentucky State at Oxford. Oct. ZleVVittenberg at Springfield. Oct. 28e-Open. Nov. 4--Ohio Wesleyan at Delaware. Nov. ll-eDePauw at Gretencastle. Nov. l8-Cincinnati at Cincinnati. Nov. 25-Reserve at Oxford. All the 1910 team, with the exception of McCoy and Wilson, will return, and the wealth of material available from last fallis Freshman squad will insure the best array of football talent seen at Miami for many seasons. Koontz, Hunsinger, Morris. VVitt- kamper, Evans, Carr and others of the Freshman team will surely make contests for places on Varsity more than lively in the fall. The schedule means hard work and real footballl, but every one is confident that the Miami team for 1911, under the leadership of Capt.-elect Levering, will be equal to the task. 118 The F reshman Team e.tt- .- .1 F we dont have a champion team next year, it will not be on the account of lack of material, and I if the boys on this year,s Freshman squad return, the public will sit up and take notice when the pig- skin is put in action next fall. This yearis Fresh- man Class had an unusual amount of football ma- terial in it as was shown When they held the regular varsity team in a 0 to 0 game at the end of the season. The Freshman squad, under the careful coaching of Dr. Young, showed signs of real football at the beginning of the season, and with faithful practice on the part Of both their excellent coach and themselves, developed into a team that certainly surprised the W7arsity and tickled iiCapf who said Tinext year we will be able to lick Notre Dame, sure? The Freshmen deserve much credit for their faithfulness in going out every night to give the ,Varsity practice and their stiek-to-it-iveness shows the real football spirit, and With this 119 and consistent training next year, Ohio State will pale into in- signihcance and Cincinnati wonit stand ace high. In fact, we are expecting great things from them and together with Old men that will return, there is no reason why Miami should not win every game next fall. The usual lineup was as follows: Ends, VVithrow brothers; tackles, Hunzinger and Koontz; guards, Newbold and Isley; cen- ter, Bowen; quarter, Carr; halves, Morris and Anderson; full- back, VVittkamper. Those deserving special mention are Hunzinger as tackle; Jim Carr as quarter and Anderson, Morris and Wittkamper in the baCk-held. Our football manager has secured a most excellent schedule for next year, and its up to this years Freshman team to enter next fall with a determination to do or die, and in the words Of TiCapf, TiWer show ,em where to head in at?

V ,f ' . ; ts 4,9 m Mm M Q Wm HERRON GYMNASIUM llE season of 1910 proved to be a bright one in the history of track athletics at llOlrl Miami,U de- spite the loss of one meet by a seemingly over- whelming score. In defeat there may be Victory, and although Earlham, who usually defeats us, turned the trick this year by a score of 77-35, yet the events of the preceding day proved without a doubt that the red and white was a worthy opponent for any track team in the Middle West. But that is another story. The first meet of the season wasn't. We shall always hold that our Cincinnati friends were afllietetl with a touch of yellow on May 7, and when a slight rain fell on that day, made this as an excuse for not holding the meet. Such a slight amount of rain, however, could not have warranted such action. Thus was a chance for additional payment on the debt which we contracted Thanksgiving day, lost forever. On May 14th, Dennisonls track team Visited classic Oxford, to do battle With llCapll Stonels husky athletes, and for their pre- EEHEDNPIEIU sumption. went down to defeat. 75-34. Miami captured nine lirsts and in addition scored both first and second in six of the fourteen events. McCoy, our ltpeerless leader, took First honors, with three firsts and a second. Sollars was next with thirteen points. Of the three features. probably the most sensational was the quarter mile in which Anderson of Dennison tlefeateil Glass. n The race was a pretty one all the way round, with the men side by side on the home stretch. Anderson won out by diving into the tape, taking the event in 53 2-5, which, considering the con- dition of the track. was goozl time. Sollars broke the school record for the pole vault, clearing the bar at ten feet, and Soule lowered the half mile record to 2:091-5. 011 May 6, the HBig Six meet was held on Ohio Field, Colum- bus, with athletes from thirteen Ohio colleges in competition for honors. Not only did Miami acquit herself well and rank in fmal standing well up with the winners, but she also proved a big surprise to the up-state colleges. The big man of the day was our own ltIrishll McCoy, who won 122 3 both the 100 and 220 yard dashes, in the former breaking the 11Big Sixii record with 94-5, within 1-5 second of the worlds amateur record. In the 220 yards his time was 22 3-5. In the pole vault, Bone Of State and Perryville 0f Wesleyan tied for hrst and second places at 10 feet 6 inches, and Sollars took third place with 10 feet 3 inches. In the relay, Pults, Sollars, Glass and Wilson finished fourth, with Wesleyan, Oberlin and State ahead of them. The time, 3 :28, was a new record. Through a mistake in entries, Pults was kept out Of the low and high hurdles, which undoubtedly lost us six points at least. Considering the small number of men entered, the teams per- UNIVERSITY RECORDS ESTABLISHED DURING THE. 1910 SEASON 100 yards, 9 4-5 seconds ..............................

Earlham again defeated us, this time to the tune of 77-35. The strain of the trip to Columbus and the work done there was evi- dent. Our men were in poor condition and this is sufficient cause for their poor showing. Conrad, for Earlham, was the particular star, scoring 23 points for his team. He won the 100 yards from McCoy in 94-5, Cleared 11 feet 1y; inches in the pole vault, 5 feet 5 inches in the high jump and won the broad jump with 22 feet 4 inches. Miami took both first and second in the half mile, Soule and Wilson running beautiful races. The relay race went to the Visitors after a hard and exciting fight. Big Six Meet, 1910 McCoy Winning the 220-Yard Dash. 124 The Winter Work 6 y Alw has not allowed the winters cold to seriously in- terfere with his pre-season work. Perhaps you may have noticed a little group of four shivering ath- letes coming from the direction of the Cinder path Well, they were the first to don the spikes and if we are to judge from their scoring in the Cincinnati meet, Miami has something worth watching. The whenever the weather was at all fit. following is what the Studmzt of February 9th had to say con- cerning the first 1911 track efforts: HSeven medals and a cup, were Miami's share of the trophies distributed to the winners of events at the Celts Carnival, Cincinnati Saturday night. Miami entered in but four events, and took one first, two see- onds and a third. The Victory of the Miami team in the mile relay was the most sensational event of the meet. Ohio XVes- leyan and the University of Cincinnati. had entered teams, but the Cincinnati aggregation developed a case of cold feet at the last minute, and withdrew! The crimson and white quartette, composed of Pults, Parker, Glass and Clarke defeated the Wesleyan team and brought home the much-eoveted cup, which has been held by Ohio Wesleyan for the last three years. The last quarter of the relay was run by Clark. Day, the XVesleyan wonder. who holds the state quan ter-mile record, had a lead of more than flve yards, but Clarke came up from behind on the First lap, passed him on the second, and won the race by a margin of seven yards. Leach in the novice fifty yard dash, took third place, the time being six sec- onds. Boring s performance in the 111011 Jump was also remark- able. Both high men failed to Clear 5 feet 8 inches and 1n jump- ing the event off. B oring took second place. Sollars came second in the pole vault at 10 feet 5 inches, the event going to 10 feet 6 inches? It is concerning this relay team that every Miami track enthu- 125 siast is now prophesyingb 0treat things. and indeed their prophesies are well founded. ln Claik and Warker, both Sophomores, who are now eligible for their hrst track work ltCapB Stone declares that he has made great finds and this is not llCapls ll opinion alone, for both men have demonstrated in the indoor work of the winter season that they possess those track qualities which nature only can furnish, but whose training to efficiency depends upon the ability of the coach. As to this point there is no fear. Parker's all-round ability was in evidence in his work in the indoor meet of March 2nd, where he won hrst in the shot. sec- 0an 1n the 880 and placed 111 the high jump and pole vault. How- ever, the sprint and hurlles are his long suits, so his efforts added to those of McCoy and Captain Pults will almost assure Miamils strength in these departments. Indoor Relay Team Win? Clark is the only man in the university who has won his llMii in each branch of athletics this year. Moreover, he has been an exceptional player in each, so it has not been a case of lteomplimentary letterii at any time. but always won strictly on the basis of merit. Clark is an Oxford high school man, and bears the name of Oxfordls best baseball artist, so the Chances are that in that sport, too, he would win a letter if the university had such an opportunity to offer. He is a medium and long distance man possessing more than ordinary powers of endurance and speed. The other eouplet of the relay team are by no means new to track work, Glass having already collected three ltMsl for his work done in the relay and quarter in previous years. Pults is primarily a sprinter and hurdler. who is also participating in his fourth year of track, and as every Miami man or girl knows of this athleteis record it is not necessary to restate it hereein short, he is captain of the 1911 track team, holder of the high hurdle record of the university and runs the clashes second only to NIrishll--and that is saying something. The Inter-Scholastie Meet N May 21st an innovation was introduced into Ox- ford athletics in the form of an inter-seholastic held meet. Seven high schools of Southern Ohio were represented with over fifty entries. Walnut Hills, of Cincinnati, carried off first honors with 31 points; Steel, Dayton, second with 26, and Hughes, Cincinnati, third with 22. Woodward. Cincinnati, earned 18 points; Washington C. H. 16; Oxford 9 and Hamilton 4. Harry Martin, the colored athlete of VVood- ward, and her only entry, won the individual honors with 18 points to his credit. He took first place in the 100 yards, 120 yard hurdles, 220 yards and second in the 220 yard low hurdles. This last event was the most exciting one of the meet, Reed, of Washington C. H., winning by a small margin. On the whole, the meet was a grand success, and Manager Stiles is certainly to be congratulated in planning and carrying out this event. Manager Gee began work on his schedule early in the second term, and as a result was able to announce, even before the season proper had opened, that twelve or fourteen schools had signifiecl their intentions of sending representatives, all of which goes to prove that the movement toward establishing closer relations be- tween Miami and the Ohio and Indiana high schools is thor- oughly appreciated by the lower institutions, as well as being im- mensely profitable to the University. In connection with the meet those functions are held which will best give the high school Visitors an insight into real Miami life. a ltIrishli Ready for a Trial Hundred 126 11E basketball season of 1911 was not altogether a sue- Cessful one, yet Miami is proud, and justly so, of the men who so faithfully worked and trained, even though facing unpleasant positions. Not as much interest was manifested in the indoor sport this season as in previous years, the student body seemed somewhat less eager to offer encouragement and trouble occurred in the xwrrking out of the schedule. yet the team was not discouraged. and several times deserved to win when fortune rather than skill favored the opponents, and the game was lost. Captain Lever- ing deserves much credit for his leadership. The season opened auspiciously on January 14th with a game on the home Hoor-Frank1in College being the Visitors. Previous years had recorded scores to show this team to be a worthy foe and Miami realized that this, too, would be a hard game. ,But the Visitors were light and for this reason handicapped to a large extent, still the playing was hard, more like an exhibition of in Toor football in fact. and a 25 to 21 Victory remains as evidence. In basketball, as well as football, this season a new team had to be developed and consequently Pults ,11, Pine. '13 and Clark 113 made their initial appearance in this game. Hoping to keep up the good reputation made in the start. the team worked hard and consistently. still the first sally abroad was disastrous, and both of the games played recordezl a defeat for Miami. On Friday, January 20th. Earlhani was met at Richmond. and the sad story can be hriefest told by the figures 31-11, the Quakers claiming three-fourths of the points scored. Nevertheless, Var- sity remembered that a return game would follow. swore ven- geance and did not lose courage. 128 The following evening Franklin was met for the return game, but this time the one lone, deciding point favored the Hoosiers, and so the season's hon- ors were divided evenly between these two teams. The smallness of the Hoor was a great handicap, but the inability to throw foulsaonly one out of four teen attempts being successfulareally lost the game. The chance for the above mentioned vengeance in the Earlhani case came January 28th. The team hail not forgotten the humiliation of a week before, and every man put up a fast and furious fight, the result being that the Quakers were forced to return to Richmond with a tale of defeat. Both teams played well, the Visitors being by far the more aC-- curate and consistent in t h e i r basket-throwing caused much discomfort at times to the local sup- porters, but Miami's passing was by far the game was won. As the final' score TTHerbTT Pine, Center superior, and on this Very point the ence xyere much pleased and enthusiasm a large and enthusiastic crowd gathered and a true gladiatorial exhibition waseyes, was hoped, in this case. But in fact the game was very tame in com- parison to the free-for-all scrap of last year. The U. C. players seemed entirely lost on the large gym Hoor, and their passing was really pathetic, to say the least. Their six-foot center was completely out' played by Pine, and their forwards were at no time able to elude the Miami guards. The team work was almost perfect. and basket after basket was registered with beautiful regularity. On Thursday, March 2nd, Dennison visited OX- ford wihle making a down-state trip and encoun- tered a team which de- feated them 25 to 20. Since the Baptists had defeated Ohio State, Ohio Wesleyan.

Then followed a long period withw out a game-not without practices, however-which ended when our friends 1.911 from Cincinnati came to do battle the Saturday night of Prom week. Because of the all but innate enmity existing between the two schools a stiff argument was expected, for the time being ran high. The game was full of sensational work and frequent spectacular plays called forth unusual applause. Honors were about evenly divided, as far as scoring was concerned, between Clark and Levering, while Black Claimed four teen of Dennisons twenty points.

Neither do these same gentlemen permit their class room dignity to mar in the least the strenuousness Of the athletic contestareference t0 the Senior Faculty basketball game tso-calledl, is sufficient to prove this point. Now Faculty athletics may be divided into two Classes: first, the H'white tlannelsH or more aesthetic kind, and second, the tlgyin-suit-knee-pad ' variety. Each claims its due portion of fol- lowers and each prospers.

To be sure there were gymnasium classes and some inter- Class basketball, but as there was no organization back of the team tif there had been oney, it was impossible for the Miami girls to play intercollegiate games. From the time of the founding of the Girls Athletic Asso- ciation there has been a wider recognition than ever before of the girls of this institution, not entirely due to the Association, of course, but in a large measure aided by the Opportunities which it provides. It is open to all the girls of the University, each member receiving a neat little llMli pin as a recognition. The Association is controlled by an executive committee of 135 nine members, which passes on all minor matters for the Asso- ciation at large. Its members may use all its properties, such as golf and hockey outfits, tennis rackets, tether and basketball equipment. Members only are eligible for the tennis tourna- ments or the basketball teams. At present there are two tennis courts belonging to and kept up by the girls. Before the end of the year two more will probably be added. BASKETBALL As the team is not permitted to leave town, all four games were played on the home floor this season as usual. Financially, the success attained was not of the same degree as last year, due probably to the fact that the dates occurred during the bus- ier weeks of the term. The first, the Cedarville game, was the only one lost. With all honors t0 the opponents, the Miami girls never played a poorer game than this. Although the score sounds like a fast contest, it was not. The ball was in Miami territory almost three-fourths of the time, still a large score seemed impossible. The first half ended 5-5. The second was a repetition Of the hrst, and although the Visitors were outplayed as to passing and team work, it ended in a ten-point tie. 1n the play-Off the Ce- darville guard recovered one of Miamils wild throws, sent it over center to their star forward, who made the winning basket. The second performance was a game with the 1lSubs,,i which, beside being the fastest of the season and recording a 26-14 Vic- tory for the regulars, showed a very promising bunch of 1912 material. Undismayed by former experiences, the girls from Wilming- ton again journeyed to Oxford 011 February 18th, and again were easily defeatedethis time to the score of 18-6. Besides the pleasure of the Victory itself, there was the satisfaction of knowing that this team had won from Cedarville a five-point victory on the latter,s floor. The game was Clean, and marked by little fouling or excessive roughness, and reflects much credit on the Quakers. Again the Miami girls found an easy Opponent in the Leban- on team. Strange to say, they also had defeated Cetlarville. which further proves that Varsity was not playing in its usual form in the lirst contest. The F ranklin game, March 11th, was another walk-away for Miss Hendersons girls, was the last Of the season, as well as the last in which any of the members of the present team will par- ticipate, as Misses llrugh, Bayes and Neukom are Seniors in the Arts, and Misses Henderson and Guinall are Seniors in the Nor- mal College, while Miss Beaman will enter an eastern school next year.

That she is somewhat behind the majority of her sister colleges claiming modern organization and methods in athletics is here in evidence, yet when the number of students is considered, and the fact that Varsity must always receive first attention, is duly noted, it is not at all surprising that class teams are rather neglected. The fact that the number of suits is not sufficient to supply both Varsity and class men is the first handicap placed upon inter-class football. To further complicate matters, the practice space is inadequate for both sets of teams. For these reasons this branch is confined to the lower classes, the first- year men possessing an especially strong aggrega- tion. Kasketball has been longer established, each class supporting a team. A better schedule is arm ranged and the sport is, in short, in a more organ- izetl state. The track squads are Of a rather spontaneous nature. existing as Class teams only during the weeks just preceding the inter-class meet. The granting of class numerals is as yet unsys- tematized. but when such rules are made as will cause the possession of these insignia to be regarded really as marks of merit, there is little doubt but that the interest in this department Will greatly ina crease. 137 FOOTBALL SOPHOMORE TEAM.

Substitute FRESHMAN-SOPHOMORE GAME The game to decide 11whois who,, in Miami under-Class foot- ball circles occurred as the third feature of the Class scrap of 1910, and as the decision of the day rested upon the winning of this event, it may be well surmised that both contestants put forth every possible effort. And it was a good exhibition-in truth, there was no reason why it should be otherwise, for 1913 was represented by nine men who, later, made Varsity positions and 1914 had as its Champions practically the same squad which a few weeks later caused so much trouble for that same Varsity. The Sophomores began hostilities by kicking to the follow- ers of Koontz, who returned the ball to their own twenty-yard line, and there lost it on a fumble. After two unsuccessful line attacks Clark was given a chance to test his speed, and as a result accomplished that thing of most importance to his side, for his end run for a touchdown not only won the game, but also the contest. After this the Freshmen braced and, although the Sophs came dangerously near, they were never able to again score. In the second half Agerter and Baker changed positions, and Miller replaced Badgeley at half. No other changes occurred. Long runs were more frequent than successful, and on sev- eral occasions did bits of really spectacular playing occur. The game was witnessed by one of the largest crowds of the season, and at no time was its display of enthusiasm surpassed. 138 BASKETBALL Despite the fact that enthusiasm runs high and that the Class flves are well supported, certain other interests arose this year which prevented the completion Of the class series. Early in January the Seniorsaafter declaring ineligible Cap- tain Clark and Center Pine-met and defeated the Sophomore quintet. A couple of weeks later the Juniors were able to take the Freshmen into camp in a beautiful manner, but the Victories failed to incite either of the upper-elass squads with desire sufhcient to cause the fmal game to be played. There-- fore, n0 Victory banner has made its chapel appearance to proclaim that another class Championship has been won.

Both proved Victories for the under-grads., and both were marked by that quality most desired by the spectatorseaction, plenty of action. In each game the faculty proved to be the superior in passing and Hoor work, but their inability to elude the Senior guards made scoring impossible. It is a noteworthy fact that but two fouls were called during the hrst game. mt the reader must decide for himself whether or not this resulted from the so- called higher education.

It is for the distinct and sole purpose of reviving a great, though now quiescent Chapter of a great fraternity, which, during the days of its activity at itOld Miamiii gave her a long and honored roll, that Phi Alpha Psi was formed. If it succeeds in its object-and it proposes to continue until it does succeede-it will mean a Wid- ening 0f the honor and prestige of Miami and the enhancing of its Alma Materis repute the country over through the revivifying 0f the Beta Chapter of Alpha Delta Phi. In 1835 Samuels Eels came West by stage coach to Cincinnati. there to engage in the practice of law. While in Hamilton College he was intimately associated with the founding of the Alpha Delta Phi fraternity, and it occurred to the young lawyer just out of college that at MiamiiUniversity he could perpetuate ' the name and ideas Of his brotherhood by the institution of an organization sim- ilar to the band then Hourishing in the iiEmpire Stateii college. He formed the second, or Beta Chapter, of Alpha Delta Phi, and it continued its honorable eX- istence here until the institution closed its doors in 1873. Unlike other fraternities now represented by chapters at Miami, this organ- ization did not see its way clear to revive its chapter When Miami reopened in 1885. It is, then, for the purpose of securing a re-establishment of this dormant Chapter of Alpha Delta Phi that Phi Alpha Psi was formed.

In Oc- D tober, 1902, the sorority was organized with the aim and purpose of be- coming a national organization. Beta chapter was established at Cornell in the spring of 1908. In May of 1909 the Delta chapter at DePauw. and the Epsilon chapter at Indiana were established. The next fall a Charter was granted to a local sorority at Nebraska University, and the Zeta chapter was added. La-a ter in the same year a local at Baker University was enrolled as the Eta chapter. The hrst step toward the aim was taken. The next step was gaining admission into the National Pan-Hellenic Conference. In the summer of 1910 thcial notice of the admission was received by the Alpha chapter, and Delta Zeta sent her first representative to the convention held in Chicago in September. In January, 1911, the Beta Gamma sorority of Ohio State University was received as the Theta Chapter of Delta Zeta. .I I ,Iwnyvmm II I. IIIIII IImIIII VIII m1 III.I, I, I . III I.

Phi Tau was one of the first of these organizations to come into existence at Miami. It had its beginning when on the night of April twenty-ninth, nineteen hundred and three. five Miami girls banded themselves together under the name of the tTE. T'SX; The society existed sub rosa for the rest of that year, but when the university Opened again in September the girls who remained put on their pink and brown and initiated six new members into their sisterhood. Through that year, in spite of hardships and disappointments, the organization prospered, its bonds grew stronger and the next fall the coffln-pin appeared worn by sixteen girls, vowed to be loyal to Phi Tau. For several years Phi Tau was the only sorority at Miami, but as the number of women enrolled in the University increased, other organizations have sprung up. It might be said that Phi Tau has had a continuous existence since its founding. 'Z ' -.,,,',M..wu Harm gm , , 1..;..

It was or- ganized by Dea Muray, Esther OByrne, Leah Miller, Ryrie Cole and Helen Sherer Lamb, and existed sub rosa for a little more than a year. In the fall of nineteen hundred and seven, the organization was duly recognized by the University as a local sorority, and became known as Alpha Gamma Chi. The membership of the sorority during its early life was limited to girls who were enrolled as students in the Normal College. Later on, however, this was Changed, and members are now taken from all departments of the University. In October of nineteen hundred and nine, a reception was given announcing the admission of Alpha Gamma Chi into Pi Delta Kappa as the Beta chapter, Alpha Chapter being located at Ohio University, Athens, Ohio, and the Gamma chapter at the Uni- versity of Cincinnati.

Three of the best-known and most prosperous of secret brotherhoods had their inception here. During Miamils first decade she was without a fraternity of any description. Literary societies were all powerful. But it was in 1835 that Lemuel Eels came up to Miami from Hamilton College-fthought the prospects were favorable and, entirely on his own authority, founded the Beta Chapter of his secret or- ganization, Alpha Delta Phi. They reigned supreme for a time, and in fact, became so 1arrogant and conceitecil that John Knox and Sam Marshall conceived the idea of starting a rival organization, which was to have all 8the good qualities of Alpha Delta Phi and none of its bad ones? The Alphas and Betas grew to be bitter rivals, but pride cometh before the tumble, which took the form of a tremendous snow-fall in 1847, which even the 8oldest settler cannot remember. However, every true Miami student knows of the 8snow-ball Rebellion? which re- sulted in the ostracism of a goodly number of the old-timers. Indeed, all the Alphas were annihilated and only a lonely duet of Betas remained. But the faculty,s shoulder wasn,t so cold that fraternities were completely frozen, for at this critical moment, Phi Delta Theta, came into existence, presented by Morris and Wilson. There was no need of rivalry when they started, hence they must have had other reasons. The Dekes made their debut when Jacob Cooper came down from Yale and became acquainted with a little band recently ejected from Phi Delta Theta. But iere long there was dissension in this crowd and soon half a dozen former Dekes Haunted before the public the white cross of Sigma Chi. Delta Upsilon appeared in 68, but died out when school closed in 1871, and was re-chartered in 1908, and last year much sur- prise was experienced when an infant local christened Phi Alpha Psi, was founded on Miamfs doorstep. There was no Greek suf- fragette movement until 1902, for you see Miami has not always been a co-eduactional school. Delta Zeta and Phi Tau were among the first. They united for a joint purpose, then later went their several ways. Kappa Theta Sigma had a short life. Kappa Alpha became Alpha Gamma Chi and now we behold the Pi Delta Kappas. 165 PHRENOCON ASSOCIATION Organized at Mimni Dccmnbcr, 1907 MottOWJQWiami for all, all for Miami?

Hughes 169 The Student Forum N the establishment of the Student Forum, Miami took a step which characterizes her as a most modern college. The day of the iiguard-house and st1'aight-jacket,, as a means of student discipline has passed away and in its stead has come a mightier regulating power known in University circles today as iistudent self-governmentf, Recognizing the merits of the movement and believing that the students of Miami were capable Of discharging the duties and responsibilities of democratic college Citizenship, Dr. Benton recommended a general plan to the Senior class and suggested that, if the class saw fit to do so, it be taken up and put before the student body for adoption or rejection. This was in Septem- ber. After some slight modifications, the Seniors unanimously adopted the general plan. Accordingly, a committee was appoint- ed by the President of the class to frame a constitution. After many weeks of research into conditions in other colleges and Of a study of Miamfs special conditions, a constitution was drawn up and presented to the student body on February ninth at four p. m. It was adopted Tiin totofi The Senators were elected on February tenth and the Forum officers on February fifteenth. The Forum consists of every student in the University. Its executive committee is composed of thirteen members and is known as the iiStudent Senate? The purpose of the organization is to create a deeper and more personal interest in the problems of student government, thereby encouraging sane, independent thinking and individual initiative, and t0 CO-operate with the administration of the University in the attempt to create an ideal college community. In accord- ance with the above named principles, the Forum may consider, upon the recommendation of the Senate, any question pertaining to the welfare of the University, and by so doing inform the ad- ministration what is the majority opinion of the student body upon the question. T hrough the Forum, the students may now feel confident their desires may now be expressed in an effective manner. Even though they live in an artificially protected environment, they will now have an opportunity to make the environment of HOld Miam? approach as near as possible to the state of a real demo- cratic society. By systematizing student elections, the Forum has already taken a long step toward the attainment of this end. 170 Girlts Self-Govemment N 1905 When Hepburn Hall became the home of the women students of Miami, it was decided to place the government of the house in the hands Of a representative group of the students. To this end the s0-called House Committee was organized. The Committee consists of a Chairman and eleven members. The chairman and five of these members are appointed by the Dean of Women at the beginning of the school year. The other six members are elected. In each university cottage one girl represents her group on the board and thus a unified plan of self-government is extended to a larger number of students. The duty of the chairman is to preside over the weekly meetings of the House Committee and to consult with the Dean concerning important questions. The legislation of this Committee is enforced by a system of proctors. A11 ofhces are honorary, yet are performed with faith- fulness.

To gratify this desire she might attempt one of two things-flrst, to enter an already organized association, or sec- ond. to assume the lead and with the co-Operation of some of her 175 DePauw University Miami University sister institutions, establish a new league. The latter seemed the more feasible plan, and toward that end the local committee drafted a constitution which was submitted to the other three schools. It was adopted with a few slight changes and Mr. James Coyner was chosen as the first president. Miami was further honored by being the place selected for the first con- test, May 19th being the date. Each school is to enter three contestants and entertain the contest once each four years. The delivery, not composition of theme, being the main point in the judging. With its present happy start the success of the new institution seems almost assured. The State Oratorical Contest Of the Ohio Intercollegiate Peace Conference, held at Miami University, April 29, 1910. HE hrst contest of this association to be held at OX- ford may well be considered a grand success.

He was also winner of the Michigan contest. The second place and the hfty dollar reward went to Mr. Lowe 0f the Ohio State University. The orations were as follows- 11A Plea for Peace? H. E.

Mohler, alternate URING the fall term the Oratorical Association made arrangements for a dual debate with Butler, to be held April 21. Last year one of our teams defeated Butler in the triangular debate. This made Butler very anxious for another Chance to defeat the red and white and spurred the Miami teams on to greater effort. Soon after the holidays, a p11eli1ninary debating contest was held for the purpose of selecting twelve men from which to Choose six debaters and two alternates. This contest, however, did not bring out as many men as the corresponding try-out last year. The question was a difficult one and drew men almost en- tirely from the economics department. On January 31st the semi-finals were held. The debaters were divided into two negative and two affirmative teams. Two de- bates were held, one immediately following the other. The two yvarsity teams were then Chosen from the men making the best showing. 177 Charles 0. Sessman Walter I. Easly James MCK. Coyner Roger C. Smith, alternate Mr. Junk is an all-'round man. He entered Miami in 1908 as a sub-freshman, nearly a year below collegiate rank, but will graduate with the class of 1912, without any summer school work. He has shown himself to be a leader among his class- mates, being the hrst president of the Class of 1913. He is also an active member of the Commonwealth and Miami Union so- Cieties. Mr. Duncan is another man that can do four years, work in three and do it well. He has made a splendid record for him- self here at Miami. Mr. Duncan was elected president of the newly-formed Student Forum and has for three years been an active member of Miami Union. Mr. Petry was alternate on one of the teams last year and this year made the regular team with ease. Mr. Petry has also made quite a record as a student and has been an active member of Miami Union during his college course. He is captain of the afhrmative team.

Her methods are perhaps less spectacular than those employed by others, but her sons going out into the world have always shown themselves prepared to meet lifeis problems. Although the fall term of this year appeared unsuccessful in several ways and interest seemed to be lacking, the society at- tracted to its fold some Of the best men Of the Freshmen class. The second term has been much more satisfactory, and the FoundedaNovelnber 4, 1825 interest taken by the younger members has assured prosperous future for the grand Old society. Of late years the policy of llOltl Erodelphianl, has been some- what changed. Instead Of essays and debates upon subjects whose only merits are their age, there has been a tendency to discuss the live questions Of the present, the questions whose solution is largely awaited by the country at large. As long as this policy continues there is no doubt but that the society will maintain its high position in the student life of Miami and realize the hopes of its founders.

It has sounded the keynote in the prevalent cam- paign for a wider interest in debating and ora- tory, and has laid down principles, the pursuance of which lead to those qualities most needed by the man of the arts colleges of the present. That the hours of training spent within Miami Union hall have not been wasted was amply demonstrated when the final choice of the inter-collegiate debating teams was made for the ColorseRed and White six regulars and two alternates were all from the roll of this society. During the past year the society hall has been repaired, a hardwood Hoor added and new furniture purchased. The col- lection 0f bookseso many of which are relics Of the days when both the society and university were young-has been removed to a safer place--the new university library. The membership has been almost doubled and indication bespeaks a live and pros- perous society. OFFICERS Presidents ..................... W. C. HODCICS, E. F.

The hrst speech for the negative was by Mr. Parker. who showed that the proposed scheme was uneonstitutitmal, and therefore, could not exist. Mr. XVebster followed and empha- sized by the aid of statistics the fact that the plan had not worked in other countries and thus it was reasonable to infer that it would not meet the requirements in America. The last speaker, Mr. Xiroung. advocated a revision of our present liability laws as a means of securing the desired result. 011 the whole the debate was a great success, and the enthu- siasm accompanying iteboth that demonstrated by the eagerness with which the members allied to the support of its team and the base-drum-toreh-light kind appearing on the night of the hostilitiese-showed that the true literary spirit still pervades the old society, and that the call of the platform is now, as of old. uppermost in the minds of the members of Old Erodelphian. Next year the tables are to he turned and the opponents are again to bow to the Purple and Gold, the colors of the oldest society west of the Appallaehians. 184 The Miami Union Team of the Inter-Soeiety Debate ziljjimzatit'ceE. E. SC11WARPZSTRXUBER E. H. PICTRY J. M. COYNICR I',I,AT Miami Union is the leading spirit of the Univer- sity in debate was again in evidence on December 1, 1910, when the annual inter-society debate was held. During the latter part Of last year the society selected Coyner, Petty and Schwartzstrauber as its debaters, the object of this early selection being to give the team ample time to pre- pare for contest, and it is safe to say that the object for which this plan was founded was accomplished. Mr. Schwartzstrauber opened the debate' by showing the in- adequacy of the present system of insurance and the out-Of-date condition of the employers liability laws. Petty followed by refuting the arguments for the negative, as advanced by Mr. Parker, and advocated a system of compulsory insurance based on co-Operation between employer and employee, and the use of an arbitrary board. Coyner did the customary act of summing up the arguments of his colleagues and added the advantages gained over present because of the lessening Of the woman and chilzl labor of the sweat-shops. And the judges' decision speaks best for the rest of the story. T I I E MID-WINTER EXHIBITION Bent on showing the public that the society could produce ora- tors as well as debaters, Miami Union revived the 01d custom of holding a mid-winter exhibition and 011 the evening of February 22nd, presented the following program. For the idea Of this old-time custom, thanks must be extended to Judge Fisk, 0f the 185 Altm'natceE. E. DUNCAN class of '63. The society orchestra was no small factor in the success of the evening.

Miami as well . as the Club itself may be proud of this, for high scholarship is the admission requirement. This year the meetings have been held at the homes of its patronesses and in the Greek room of Main Building, and the good average attendance and the faithfulness with which each girl responds with her part Of the program, are indications of the appreciation of literature mani- fested by the members of the club. The topic for the year is, iiFields in Which Women Are Working? and its discussions have proved interesting to all, since each gave a glimpse into a sphere Of life Open to the American girl. An innovation was introduced this yearathe Closing of each program by the rendering of a humorous selection, which, be- sides varying the line of thought, prepares the members for the social session that follows. A retrospective glance 0f the passing year may well cause the Liberal Arts girls to feel proud, both for the addeil facility of speaking before others and the broadened knowledge of a woman's duty and ability.

As soon as a need is felt there is activity, and these girls were not slow in searching for some- thing to meet their need. The faculty of the Normal College greatly encouraged this spirit, and advised the girls to organize a literary society. There- fore, NOV. 6, 1903, a meeting was called for this purpose, and with the assistance of Prof. Feeney as Chairman, the foundation for the Pierian Literary Society was laid. Since that time the society has been active. The literary element holds the more prominent place, but the social side is greatly encouraged. In 1909 this society was received into the Ohio Federation of Women's Clubs, and has since been known as the Pierian Club. In October a delegate was sent to the convention of Ohiois Federated Clubs at Oberlin. She brought back very interesting and instructive reports of the work done by the Federation. This was an inspiration to the members to take a more serious View of life and need of services extending beyond college life. The Club meets every two weeks on Friday evenings. It is divided into three groups or round tables this year: Arts, Liter- ature and Civics, the members Choosing the table to their own liking. After the discussions of the round tables the whole club holds a business meeting, then devotes a short time to the social side. The membership is large, and much interest has been mani- fested throughout this year. The spirit of the organizers still lives and heralds the success of their labors.

Since there has been 80 great an increase in the number of students taking normal work, the neces- sity Of another club has been felt. SO it came about that the Thalian Dramatic Society was organized. Nine girls of the sopohomore class organize:1 and drew up a constitution, then sent out invitations to the two Classes of the Normal College. Cora IEEOggs Nora Blakeley Lu Marie Brown Lucille Kraft Rose Clippinger Helen Cookston Grace Englebeek Nell Dollinger The members of the Club now numbers twenty-six. The firstbofhcers were Chosen from these nine charter members. Nell Dollinger was elected presi- dent. She did much to put the society on a firm basis. For a society so young, the Thalian Club is doing remarkably well. There is a friendly rivalry between the Pierian and Thalian C111b8. The work of the Thalian society consists of a study of the drama from its beginning. The Greek form will be studied anil some of the dramas read. More attention will be given to the later dramas, Shakespearian works taken up in particular. OFFICERS President ...................................

HENRY BECKETT T is a lamentable fact that the Miami branch of the Young Menis Christian Association is one Of the weakest in the state. To explain this condition would be difficult, for none of the many assigned reasons seem to be adequate. It is also a noticeable fact that in state univer- sities the Y. M. C. A. is usually weaker than in sectarian schools, not due to a lower standard of student morals, but prabably to theilack of emphasis placed upon the religious life of the students attending. At Miami during the past year the Association has not at- 203 tained the standing that it should, and although there were no deterioration in any of the departments, there was not the de- sired advance of the organization that might have been expecte:l. The devotional meetings were on the whole much more satis- factory than those of the previous years antl the social features equally successful, but the work in the Bible Study and Mission departments was not given the desired student attention. However, it is hoped that there will be an awakening of in- terest during the ensuing year that will cause this association to advance to a position equal to any other in the state.

Our Sunday meetings in the Auditorium are usually led by members of the Association and the girls help themselves in the efforts to help others. Miss Sewall, the territorial secre- tary, Miss VVardle, president of Cincinnati Missionary Training School, Dr. Benton, Mrs. Richards and Prof. Feeney gave us very helpful talks during the year. Special meetings have been given to the study of Missions this year and they have been more Of a success than the classes were. The Bible classes have been quite well attended and a great deal of interest manifested in them. 205 The general, wide-awake spirit of our Y. W. C. A. was dem- onstrated in the Christmas Bazaar given December 3, 1910. The girls showed the true Christian spirit in their determination to help others. The budget for the year 1910-11 was $500, but the income far surpassed that, and we were able to do more for missions, settlements and various phases of Y. W. C. A. work than we had expected. Our membership is the largest it has ever been at Miami, and we hope our Y. W. C. A. will grow in spirit as rapidly as it has in membership.

Burke The Banquet HE fourth annual Glee Club banquet was held in Hepburn Hall on Monday evening, January 29. After an informal reception, beginning at seven- thirty, the sixty guests went to the dining hall. Red roses graced the five or six very artistically arranged tables, and at one side of the room was a bar of music, fancifully designed upon a back- ground of white. At each place was a souvenir in the shape of a guitar or mandolin, filled with confections. Mrs. Tudor has always been more than kind to the Glee Club, but on this last occasion she furnished a menu that was a triumph. As the meal progressed, wit and merriment passed, and at the close came toasts of an order not often heard here. As toastmaster, Mr. Cushrnan presided with an ease and flow of hyperboles altogether delightful. He presented President Benton, the first speaker, with an imitation of the latterls own manner in introducing speakers. President Benton had llThe Glee Club,, as his subject, and paid several tributes to the organ- ization.

On the dainty little menu cards Secretary Bartlowls name was printed, in the list of speakers, with l The Business Endll as his topic. Because he could not be present, Professor Burke spoke impromptu about the prospects for the spring trip. ilThe Charter Members, was the subject of a toast by Mr. Beckett, and Mr. Gee followed with one on llThe New Members? Opposite Mr. Calderwoodis name was a series of question marks, and his remarks were of so questionable a shape that they will go uncommented upon. This ended the formal list of toasts, but by request of the toastmaster, Professor Hoke, as the former manager of the Club, made an impromptu talk, dealing with the present state of the group and the hopes for the future. A selection by the Club, llDrink to Me Only With Thine Eyes? brought the banquet to a close. It would not be too much to say that the festivities of the evening were perfection. In every way the affair was the most delightful of the four banquets the club has had thus far. Dates Tuesday, March 28 ........................................

Burke The Madrigal Concert Thursday evening, February 9, 1911 HIS year for the first time the Madrigal concert was made a public affair and given in the Audi- torium instead of Bishop Chapel, as formerly. Fearing that twenty-hve voices would be insuf- hcient to fill this larger hall, Professor Burke in- creased the number to thirty, the result being very successful. As usual, the first part of the program was the more Classical, and contained solo and quartet work of a quality seldom heard on the amateur stage. Part second was made famous by at least one featureethe 11Grasshopper OperaU conducted by Miss Hu- lick. This was distinctly novel to an Oxford audience, both in the general scheme. songs and stage settincr, the latter being made possible by the art work done by Misses Miller and David- son. Of course the Limericks were eagerly awaitedefor in truth the Miami man or professor who is offended is the slighted one, not the one receiving this type of publicity. Few were slighted. The assistance of Miss Norris, both as pianist and in the ca- pacity of an assistant director. was of the highest benefit to the entire club. Yes. the Madirigal is now an established institution, and a successful one. 214 - IN SIDE.- O WWW XW gwmm; Wifzjgg 5?: llYe Merrie Playersll n a A 1-. :' '- p sult of numerous attempts during the last few years, to establish a dramatic club at the University.

It is preposterous as a rule for untrained college students to undertake even one of Shakespeareis lightest plays, yet this perform- ance was anything but amateurish. It is surpris- ing how much material is discovered and brought forth in just one Class, and Class plays are perhaps a good safeguard against letting talents be hidden in napkins. The cast of this play was an efhcient one and a credit to the University. Mr. Rymer, as Orlando, played that part admirably. His nat- urally pleasant voice and splendid physique aided him much in the role. Miss Gaddis was pleasing in her role of the heroine and showed much ability. Audrey, the country wench, a rather difficult role, was taken by Miss Allen, who was very clever. Mr. Martin, as Touchstone, was splendid. Mention should be made of the foresters, Messrs. Graham, Price, Cromley and Bingham, who furnished sweet music. Much credit is due to Professor Taylor, who trained the cast. CHARACTERS Duke, living in banishment .......................

HE Sophomore Normal Class always stages a play essentially different from either the mid-year or Senior Class play, and the Normal Class Of 1910 presented Jane Austin's 11Pride and Prejudice? The time Of the play is about 1796, hence in aC- Cordance with the fashions of the times, the cos- tumes were not elaborate, but certainly Charming. They deserve especial credit for their rendition of this play, be- cause of the fact that the masculine parts were taken by the girls themselves. Miss Mitchell, as Mr. Darcy, was splendid, and made a very good hero. Miss Heath, as Mr. Bingley, played up to Mr. Darcy admirably. Mrs. Bennett was a very laughable character and 'in that role Miss Haines was certainly good. Miss Perry will be long re- membered as Lady Catherine. Misses Booher, Cowen and Miller as daughters of Mrs. Bennet. were graceful and Charming. The quaint play, under the direction of Mrs. Kate MeCluskey, was thoroughly enjoyed by a most enthusiastic audience. CHARACTERS Mr. Darcy, 0f Pemberly, Derbyshire .............. C.

BARRIE Presented Thursday Evening, February 23, 1911, by the Students of the University ttThe Admiral Criehtonii HE Admirable Crichton, aside from Shakespearean plays, was by far the most difficult play that has ever been attempted at Miami. The comedy by J. M. Barrie, is essentially a problem play, the motive being iiif its natural, it is right? The fact that the scenes are laid in England and the South Sea Islands, shows that there was necessarily an elaborateness of scenery and indeed, the stage set- tings were entirely different from anything ever before attempted here. The play was hilariously funny from start to finish, but never- theless, there was ample opportunity for hero worship. The title Character was taken by Mr. Kinder, and he certainly was the admirable Crichton. Mr. Heeter, as Ernest, kept the play moving with his spirit. He was always greeted with roars of laughter. Misses Knapp, Beaman and Nesbit were splendid as the lan- guid daughters of the Earl of Loam, that part being taken by Mr. Calderwood, who is always good, especially in the role of an old man with a sense of humor. Mr. Fitzpatrick as usual showed much ability, and played well the type character of the English dude. Eliza, a iitweenyf a character with many opportunities, was very well taken care of by Miss Neukom. Mr. Young, as Tre- herne, was a good minister. Miss Huliek, as the Countess of Broeklehurst, gave us a good interpretation of that character. The servants, flfteen in number, were suitable, their cos- tumes were very appropriate and aided much in the success of their parts. The large number of characters in the first act was well managed. Professor Gates directed the play, and to his ability and earnest endeavor, together with the happy selection of the play, is largely due the great success of the play. It has been said that never has a Miami audience waxed so enthusiastic as they did over this play. , CHARACTERS Crichton, the butler ............................ Jean Kinder The Rev.

Junior Prom has served its term of probation at Miami and now. after its brilliant success under the management of the Class of nineteen twelve, this function will no doubt be a permanent affair. That this. the third annual Prom. was a success was the opin- ion of every one who attended. it was a representative gath- ering of Miami men and women and their friends a gatheringr with one object in vieweto have a good time and this object ms realized. 229 it was realized from the moment when, upon entering the Gym, the scheme of decorating came into View. Around the tails Of the track were two rows of lights, the upper a row Of gold, the lower a row of green and white. Between the two was a band Of red, which added the final touch to the color seheme- the red and white for the University, the green and gold for the Class of Nineteen 'iiwelve. At each end of the hall were clusters of ferns in squares of red lights. 1n the four corners great golden halls of light shown through trailers 0f smilax and, as a back- ground to these, the pennants and banners of the different or- ganizations gave a college-like touch to the spacious booths. The special feature of the grand march completed the scene of beauty and gaiety. Here it was that one hundred and fifteen couples, marching to the ttMiami March Songf' formed a line about the entire hall and then by skillful leading, the ladies formed a gigantic figure one and the men a two of equal pro- portions, thus presenting to the admiring onlookers the numerals of the Junior class. Then the two lines joined and the grand march broke up in the first dance of the evening. The dances that followel were enjoyed for the dancing itself, and for their inforinalityaa quality so often lacking at such a formal affairabut the intermission. though coming too soon as it seemed to most, was a welcome diversion. The refresh- ments were served to the different groups gathered in the booths and other places of vantage. Though the service was rather slow, every one was reached and the call for the fourteenth dance found every one eager for the continuation. Two oiclock came and went and the orchestra played on, at the direction of the committee, until the last number on the pro- gram brought to a Close the greatest social affair ever he1:1 at Miami. To those who were present this Prom will be an event to be long remembered; to those absent, the loss of a true college pleas- ure and one that has passed forever. As this Promenade surpassed those which have gone before. may next yeale be superior to this one, for at Miami there must be no ttgoing backward? Music by the Heidelberg Orchestra.

The freshman feels it the first week he is hereethe Soph already has some of it and the C0111- bination of the two is responsible for the informal 11iee-creanfl and 1gpenny-pushingii parties so dear to the heart of some fresh- men. And spirit is spirit when a band of bloodthirsty Sophs, under its influence, welcomes the Freshman guest to his new home by washing his pedal extremities in the sacred waters of Thobe's fountain. But all good things must have an end, and the annual Freshman-Sophomore scrap clay is the end so far as this Class spirit is concerned, for many succeeding days. Scrap day, at Miami, is an institution. The three events used at present are a degeneration of the old, all-zlay, free-for-all. slug and drag em out Hag-rush through the successive stages of the tug of war and the bean bag contest. The events of this year's contest furnished quite a little amusement to the crowds of town people and upper-classnien. The latter. especially, were in great spirits after the innocent pranks which they had indulged in as members of the Ancient and Honorable Order of Gobblers, during the previous night. MUCH has been said of the wspirit of the institutionf' FLAG RUSH One old-timer rises to remark that the Hagarush of today is a tame affair. We do not dispute his word for he was one who fought in the tower in the days when a traction engine was used to Climb the pole, until it was put out of commission by the rocks hurled by the doughty defenders. Still, excitement was not lacking when, on the morning of the thirteenth of October. the Class of ,13 met the Class of 114. The first period opened with half the Sophs about the pole. The other half were in cyclone cellars--so far we know. The Freshmen just ran up and caught hold wherever they could. 3L1t a gentleman from Wyoming was up the stump and he stayed there long enough to save the flag for that period. The second period was a series of ups and clowns. Montgomery was both. Fin- ally a grandson of Italy went up on a TTCarrll and the flag of ,13 came down. One notch in the Freshman gunstock. PUSH BALL CONTEST The Sophomores came out in increased numbers for this con- test, but only thirty of them could play at one time. This was too bad, considering that so many of them had voluntarily IniSSCCl the fun of the early morning. The thirty Chosen ones knew that it was up to them. The thirty chosen Freshmen were conhdenta so they said. Still a Freshman, in the fall terin especially. is afraid of anything larger than himself. Now a push ball is big- ger than any Freshman. Therefor, the Freshmen didn't like the looks of that ball. However, they put up a good scrap, and that was what counted, especially with the onlookers. The game was any ones until the last whistle blew. The ball moved slowly back and forth across the held. Now up in the air, now out of bounrls. Neither sirle seemed to have the ad- Vantage, but once when the Freshman defense weakened and Sophs rushed the ball across the goal line. Again it was the same old struggle, with no advantage to either side, until the whistle blew. Score: Sophomore 6, Freshman O. A notch in the Sophonier gun this time. FOOTBALL GAME The football game was to decide the Championship and excite- ment ran high at 2:30 when Captain McCoy blew the whistle for the kickoff. The Sophomores kicked to the Freshmen, who re- ceived the ball on their hve-yard line and advanced it a few yards only to lose it by fumbling. The Sophs on the third down gave the ball to Clark, who went over for a touchdown, after a short 611d run. Neither goal was in danger from that time on, though Koontz was often called upon by the Freshmen to boot the ball into safe territory. Game ended. and the day was thus decided for the Sophomore class-by the one lone touchdown. However. the Freshmen find consolation in the fact that 1911 will bring another contest and then they shall find revenge, if 232 233 A F ew of the 1910-11 thurple Patehesll PRESIDENT BENTONAS RETURN T is true that the volume of Miami spirit in its ebb and How is responsible for things both good and bad, for things beneficial and things harmful to the school and to those participating in its various forms. At times Miami spirit breaks forth in one grand upheaval which will brook no resistance, and which, in times of wareon the football fieldeand in times of peaceesuch as in the matter of holidays, usually procures the desired results. Now all Miami was alarmed in the spring of 1910 for, with the rejoicing over the return of Dr. Benton-eour Prexyethere also came news of his call to the presidency of Boston College. Clearly, something had to be done by some one, and this some- thing resolved itself into one of the finest exhibitions of spirit that has ever been seen in this town. VVllCn Prexy came to OX4 ford there was a demonstration. A reception was held in the evening at which practically every one in college and many of the town people greeted the returning president and after lin- gering before the Auditorium went quietly to their homes. A few days later, however, on Tuesday of commencement week, the trustees of the University, upon arriving at Oxford, were met at the depot by a hundred Miami men with Nagells llMonarch? With the boys all on a long towline the Honorables were taken through town at a gallop. Up College avenue, then down High street to the main entrance to the campus. Acting President Tobey, with all his weight on the brake-lever, could not stop the mad rush down the slanting walk to the Auditorium. Once there, Tom Rymer, in a speech which represented the feele ing and spirit of the assembled students, briefly reviewed the work Doctor Benton had done for Miami, and asked the trus- tees to do all in their power to keep him as our President. Mr. Tobey, speaking for the trustees, promised that that body would do all that it could do to follow the wishes of the students, and thgresult was that Prexy remained at Miami. DEDICATION OF THE ALUMNI LIBRARY. Preliminary to the commencement exercises for the class of 1910 the newly completed Alumni Library was dedicated with short but impressive ceremonies. A procession of trustees, fac- ulty members, Visiting alumni and friends of the University moved at nine-thirty from the Auditorium where W. L. Tobey, the act- ing President of the Board of Trustees, as presiding officer for the occasion, briefly stated the history of the building, which they had come to dedicate. Dr. Hepburn was then introduced to speak in behalf of the faculty. Because of his long connection with the University as teacher and officer, he was ably fitted for his task, and seldom has he appeared to better advantage. James R. Patterson of the class of 1858 was then presented to speak in behalf of the alumni. It was from Mr. Patterson that the committee having in charge the solicitation of funds for the building of the library received a gift which encouraged them in their work and enabled them to meet the conditions Mr. Carne- gie had imposed. Among other things Mr. Patterson said: 111 cannot express the gratification, the delight which this event brings to us all. It is an achievement for which we have hoped and toward which we have worked for many years. First of all I want to acknowledge our great indebtedness of our worthy President for his invaluable efforts in the initiative of this move- 234 '3 mid ment, in securing the aid of the great library builder, Andrew Carnegie. thhile grateful to all who have in any measure contributed to this success, sons of lOld Miami' and of lNew MiamY-ait is with especial interest and gratitude that I acknowledge the gen- erous responses from my associates of lOld Miami, Led by our distinguisheil alumnus, VVhitelaw Reid, of the class of ,56 with a donation of five thousand dollars, followed by the donation by another alumnus of five thousand dollars, then by donations each of one thousand dollars from our distinguished and belovetl alumni, the late Samuel F. Hunt, Nelson Sayler, John B. Smith, Robt. C. Schenck, the heirs of William Beckett, and by Phillip N. Moore. the memories of whom will ever be Cherished and hon- ored by the sons of Miami and whose names are to be perpetuated in the reading rooms and alcoves of this library? The formal acceptance of the library building for the Board of Trustees was made by Hon. Walter L. Tobey. At the Close of his speech the procession was again formed and the march made through the main building an:l around to the north entrance of the Auditorium, where the commencement exercises took place. PROGRESS ON THE NEW DORMITORY. An item in the budget presented to the legislature during the last week of April, providing for the second installment of the total appropriation for the building of the new girls, dormitory, calls attention to the work already done upon that building. The successful bidder for the contract of carrying out the plans of Architect Packard, of Columbus, was Geo. A. Abernathy, also of Columbus. The open weather which Characterized the latter part of the past winter allowed Mr. Abernathy a good start upon the build- ing, and at this date practically all the walls, both inside and out of the basement Hoor are completed. At this rate the contractor hopes to have the work under roof by September. The pushing of the work in this manner is as commendable as it is strange to those familiar with the progress upon similar buildings on this campus. Still the building cannot be completed too soon, for the number of girls at Miami demands suitable accommodations as soon as it is possible to procure them. SCHOOL SPIRIT ANDTTHE DEPAUKV GAME. Miami is like other schools in that as long as there is a win- ning team to cheer for there is plenty of cheering. During the season of 1910 with a team to Cheer for that was not above the average, college spirit was on the decline to such an extent that drastic measures were seen to be needed, especially to arouse en- thusiasni for the DePauw game. On the day before this, the best game of the season, notice was given that a revival meeting would be held in the Gym at seven-thirty delock. Tom Glass presided at this meeting, but was spared the labor of presenting the succeeding speakers by the assembled men, who called for those whom they wished to hear. llCaptaini, Stone, the first speaker of the evening, told in a few Choice words the old, old story of the spirit of Miami at thoter Dam? Charles Heeter next came upon the scene with a slam for everyone and everything in sight, excepting, of course, himself. Captain MC- Coy, a man of few words, was as brief and to the point as was Harley, who succeeded him. Martin Morris spoke for and to the Freshmen class and from all reports he is still talking-for and to himself. Miss Neukom pledged the support of the girls, and they sealed the pledge by the singing of llOld Miami. The DePauw game was a defeat for Miami so far as the score was concerned, but when two hundred men, the best at Miami, leaving all that is dear to them on the opposite side of the field. march bravely over to rooters row and goaded by the 236 237 cheer leaders taunts, yell their voices away and then yell them back again in the face of overwhelming defeat; it is a Victory for the college. Such was the cheering at the DePauw game. It was an exhibition of school spirit in the face of defeat of such a quality as is seldom seen, and having been seen it will be remem- bered by many in the days to come when they hear talk about gthe spirit of the institution? THE BAZAAR. It is a peculiar fact, but none the less true that give a Miami man an opportunity to use his money for some sane, educational return to himself and he will think twice before making the investment. On the other hand, give him a chance to spend it foolishly so far as the return to himself is concerned, and he will lose his last cent without one remorseful look at its departing hgure. Of course the Bazaar given for the beneht of the Union Bethel of Cincinnati, was worthy of the patronage of the fellows and they took the opportunity of foolishly purchasing for them- selves and friends a supply of everything they did not want or could not use. The Bazaar was the success, both finacially and as an enter- taining diversion which it was intended to be by those who had it in charge. The Y. W. C. A. girls designed and carried out their plans with the help of only three menePrexy, Bill Cushman and Tom Glassewho had minor parts in the big show. Among the articles sold were clolls, drinks, eats, lampshacles and fortunes. The dolls proved quite an attraction and the stock was soon depleted with the exception of one beauty which Poss auctioned off to himself for a quarter. The domestic science table was under the management of Miss Ross, and the tempting array of good things spoke well for that department. The Junior booth was the place of distribution for lampshades and other knick-knacks so useful in the student world. Of course the re freshments were varied and many and were liberally partaken of by the thirsty and hungry throngs. Fortunes were distributed in wholesale lots by a palmist, a crystal gazer and a card reader. Disappointed in the future as presented by one exponent of the magic art one had merely to go to another booth where everything would be made right. Or perhaps still disappointed one had but to go to the third when without fail, life would be made worth living by the promise of the golden opportunities of the future. Besides these three games of chance the grab-bag was another proven means of un- certain gain which was an object of interest until the bag itself was sold to the highest bidder for use as a Christmas stocking. In addition to these attractions and several free exhibitions of some little worth, the picture show, the best event of the eve- ning, was presented in the big tent. The film for the evening was entitled, 1The Reveries of a Bachelor? is a rare one as it is said that the pictures cannot be duplicated in this country. With such attractions the success of the Bazaar depended upon the spirit of the patrons and everyone responded nobly to his duty for the betterment of his slum brothers, and when it was all over everyone was satished with himself and with the efforts of the Miami Y. W. C. A. A TRIP TO THE CIRCUS. On the evening of Saturday, March 18, 1911, we beheld the greatest galaxy of arenic glories ever gathered together under one gym-roof. Bill Cushman, in a uniform of Prussian blue, intro- duced us to circusdom by shouting llticketsi, at us in a commend- ably professional tone. When we had got our breath, and had recovered from the sight of Tom Glass spieling for the side-shows, we saw that the old gym had undergone a mighty transformation. A bald-headed wizard had blown his magic whistle, and had there- by conjured up clowns, spielers, side-shows, peanuts and pop-corn, 238 a brown-and-white goat and Jessie Robinson. There was a real circus-ring filled with real sawdust, there were trapezes and Hying rings, there was a tympanny orchestra playing an overture. We gasped. We had our photo taken by T om Law and gasped again. Then we grew really enthusiastic. The shouts of the ven- ders, the music of the tynpanny, the crunching of peanuts; all these things took us back to childhood days-days of wood-ehope ping and of bottle-selling, and of waiting. We attempted a shout. It was a feeble one. We heard Heeter, and tried once more, and succeeded. The circus proceeded as Circuses do-athere was a grand par- ade, twice around the track; there was a suspiciously high dive, the most renowned ringmaster in the world was then introduced; Marcelline, the clown, was assisted tpart of the tiniel by a rather reticent goat; there was a really talented juggler; there were two pleasing Terpsichorean turns; a troupe of acrobats; a rope dancer; a neat sword-swallowing act, and a very convincing per formance. The comedy features were the Ump! Ha! Ha! Family, the Ledchian Polar Bear, the Maishian Monkey, the- School-days Troop, the Minstrel Maids, and iiRetlii Johnston and His Band. The most remarkable zoological specimen was the Ashtonian Stork, very Cleverly introduced by an overworked ringmaster. After the customary announcement of the concert, the gen- tlemanly robbers passed through the audience, and THeiniei, Becket left in undignihed haste. Then poor little Lizzie was cap- tured from the i1croolii Indians to the accompaniment of a dozen young cannon; the Chariots came and wentfand the concert pro- longed the sound of deviltry by night with Spanish dancing tby a Dutchmany, mind-reading, hypnotism, and blank cartridges. Then we wandered from the Circus-grounds, down the fire- trap stairs of the gym, and we did not awake until we had de- parted afar from the shouts and shots and side-shows. Then we looked into our pocketbook. ' N. B. OVe forgot to say that the Circus was given by the girls of Miami, that it earned over $100 for them, that they will invest their $100 in gym apparatus, and that the triumphant suc- Eess of the Circus was due largely to the efforts of Cap. and Mrs tone. 239 a THE GLEE CLUB TRIP. And a Little of the Past and Future of the Organization. Of the eight towns visited on the spring trip of 1911, only one was new to the Club. It is an interesting fact that this one, Ken- ton, Ohio, is the place where the most satisfactory concert was given; perhaps the best concert of the four years, existence. The tour did not take the club outside of the state. Be- ginning with Hamilton, on Friday, March 24, concerts were given in Troy, Piqua, Greenville, Sidney, Kenton, Bellefontaine and Middletown. In Troy, on the Sunday during the trip, the club gave a sacred concert in the Presbyterian church, consisting of several selections. with Prof. Burke in the solo parts, organ solos by Miss Helen Cosley and Joe Clokey, and a talk on 11The Col- lege Communityfi by Henry Beckett. There were the usual social affairs given for the Glee Club, dances and parties, some for everybody and some for just a part of the club. In several towns the members were entertained and lodged at private homes. Press notices were full and favorable everywhere, and au- diences were enthusiastic, almost without exception. As manager Mr. B. S. Bartlow accompanied the club on its journeys. Because of his careful arrangements about trains the Glee Club had plenty of sleep during all of its week-an-a-half on the road, and the trip was really a rest after examinations. In the past a debt from traveling has been considered inevit- able. It was thought that the only possible way to make ends meet was to apply the Clear gain of the home concert to the deficit from the trip. But last spring the concerts abroad were a proht. and with the new form of contract proposed for the future they will continue to pay. The Oxford concert was exceedingly well attended this year, and the receipts amounted to over three hun- dred dollars. This financial success of the Club has been due in large part to the splendid management of Secretary Bartlow, with the knowledge that has come from experience of the past. A week before the trip proper there was a preliminary concert at College Corner, and the club gave a special at Liberty on Friday 14. The home concert occurred a week after the return from the travels of vacation, on April 11. A GLANCE BACKWARD. This is the fourth year for the Glee Club. It is the passing of the first generation. It brings the clay of reckoning. This organization has made a place for itself in a way truly remarkable. and a place unique and enviable. The home con- certs, the first a glorious surprise, have come to be looked for- ward to with eagerness as important events of the year. Abroad the Glee Club has been an advertisement to the school and has been worth while for the satisfaction given. Prof. Burke has set a high musical standard. Each year the First Part of the concert has consisted of selections of high qual- ity; difficult pieces. The Second Part has been a mixture of sen- timent and humour, college songs lyrics, and ilstunts. ,, It has always proven more attractive to audiences as a whole than the heavier music that preceded. Next year theie must be a change in the kind of funniness the club tithanrls out? J. Robert Calrlerwoorl has taken a part in the entertainments that no one else can fill. It is not likely that there will be another of his sort for yeaii. He has been the limatinee idol. L' Next year the organization will have to taX its resources for another kind of thing. Although this year s Glee Club banquet is treated elsewhere in those pages that belong to the organization, these events should be mentioned here in this restrospect. To the members of the Club no affairs have been so delightful, and the last was the best of all. These functions have been almost perfection. On the program of the last concert in Oxford were printed the names of Glee Club men who have gone. It is odd that the eighteen names divide into four to each part, with the exception of six in the baritone. At commenceinents to come there will be reunions of the liolcl guard? A number of Glee Club men have said, toward the Close of the Senior year, that their connection with this group was more precious than anything else in their school life. Each year a few testify their undying interest through letters of best wishes at the time of the trip or the home concert. One of the facts that makes the Glee Club the most perfect student activity here is that the manner of its management has been so exemplary. The oilieers of the Club have not been taken as honors but as 0171507tmzztivs for SCI 'zu The members have al- wa ys been bound into a tine unit of congeniality and factionalism has not entered to a dangerous extent. LOOKING FORWARD. The Glee Club has worked the territory that its trips have covered almost too thoroughly. HencefOrth the journeys must be more extensive. and rather more pretensions, since thereis money in the treasury. The club deserves better things than a vacation spent among the small towns of southwestern Ohio. All who are acquainted with the Glee Club appreciate its worth, but few know how much it has meant to those who are members. The hours of comradeship together, the songs and the fun. the yearly sojourn among strangers and the thirty-nine audiences that have been. all have a high value to them. May the Glee Club entlure and grow in efficiency. 240 C 0107'5-9G01d and White The Miami branch of the Allaince Francais, an organization purposing to better acquaint students of the Romance Languages Le Cercle F rancais ORGANIZED, 1899; REORGANIZED, 1909 F l owereFIeur-de-Lis with the French as it is spoken and with life:past and presente 0f the French nation.

Iv Commonwealth Club ORGANIZED JANUARY 10, 1910. With the View that educated young men should be inSpired with a sense of what their Civic duty is, and that they should have a better understanding of political questions, the Commonwealth Club, of Miami, was organized. It is unquestionably the hope of every democ- racy that those who are best fitted to govern should not shirk their responsibilities, and we believe, also, that the reins of government should not be placed in the hands of those who are not fitted to deal with the problems of legislation. This club is afiiliated with the Intercollegiate Civic League, which has its headquarters in New York. There are over forty Clubs in the League, representing some of the largest and best univerSities in the United States, notably among which are Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Cornell, Columbia, Dartmouth, Northwestern, Michigan State, Wiscon- sin State and the University of Chicago. The object of this League is best set forth in its constitution, which is as follows: iiThe object of this League is to serve as a bond of union to those members in American universities and colleges who believe in the intelligent study of public affairs as a means of increasing the interest of students in the duties of citizenship and of raising the standards of public life in the United States. Non-partisan in membership and aims, it stands for honest and efficient public service? It will be the policy of the local club to follow two definite meth- ods; iirst, it is the purpose to have lectures delivered by men who have won distinction in their respective professions; and, secondly, to allow the members to discuss assigned topics touching on all phases of political life.

The membership is not limited in number, but is restricted to those who have a liking for the journal- istic profession, and have a bent in that direction. The organization has possibilities, and there is no reason why it should not become the strongest of the vocation clubs at Miami. OFFICERS HENRY BECKETT ..........................

Through some very important evidence given by cer- tain memebers of the Phi Delt fraternity and the Beta Zeta sorority an exciting bit of scandal has just been brought to light. 810 Feaston, a Charming debuttante from one of the suburbs of the great metropolis of Cincinnati, came to Miami last fall, knowing nothing of either the fraternity or sorrority situation, fell innocently into the nets of Alpha Chapter of Delta Zeta. As a result she was forced to take upon herself their obligations, the least of which was to avail herself of a fraternity pin before the evening of January 28, 1911. Further developments show that Miss Feaston had been seen frequently in company with one of the tileading young men,, of the University, Halter Billy by name He is a senior in his alma mater, prominent in baseball, track and piano circlesesome say orchestra circles also. He being a Phi Delt, perhaps for this reason, and the fact that she knew him better than any other man in the University, led her to go to him in her dilemna. Billy has the reputation around the school of being a conservative, but her innocence and Childishness melted his cold heart, and he willingly gave up his pin to her cause. With a hasty itmueh-a-bligedit she hurried tr1 umphantly to gloat over her prize'in the privacy of the Delta Zeta House. What was done with the pin or to what use it was put that night can only be conjectured. However, it is apparent that the Child had no con- ception of the value of the pin, or how others had pin. From the Original Photograph. l-Portion of Miss Feastonls waist showing the. newly acquired A Z 2-Mr. Billyls CIJAB on the interior of Miss Feaston's coat. 3-iiRougell Yohnsonls arm. X scheemd in vain for years to acquire what she had ac- quired in but a few minutes, for the very next morning she was caught in the act of returning it. In company with her roommate and Messrs. Litmer and Yohnston, of the Sigma Chi companyewhieh in itself is sufficient to call forth an editorial in this paper, she was seen walk- ing down Walnut street about eleven otcloek. At this point a sudden gust of wind, blowing open Miss Feas- tonis coat, revealed a Delta Zeta pin in all its glory, but on the inside of her coat another pin gleamed forth. On investigation this proved to be the same Phi Delt pin. Fortunately for this paper, our staff photographer hap- pened along at this point on his way home from a night spent in photographing slum conditions, and snapped an excellent picture showing the eoniiicting pins. However, the picture was obtained only after a des- perate struggle in which our photographer won out as he always does. Credit must be given, in a measure, to ttRougei, Yohnston, for the manly part he took in the affair. Further developments show that he is a rival of Mr. Billyis for the hand of Miss Feaston, and no doubt desired this picture as evidence. Those in company With her made a Close investiga- tion of the pin and ascertained the real owner through the engraving on the back of the pin. Whether she succeeded in carrying out her intention of returning the pin or not, is still a mystery, but it is the opinion of the majority of the girls in school that if she did return it, she is guilty of an unpardonable sin.

But then he has good reason to beein fact he knows more than any prof in schoole-he is here simply reviving his innate knowledge. Twenty-five hours of work is as easy as fifteen for the average man. He is thoroughly educated and highly niagniiied. His com- ing to school is a mere favor to the profs as well as to the rest of us. He is originator of the uSociety of the Brays. HREIY, HALLIDAYeThe above Classic face is a profile of one Frances Halliday, Who has been brought into the limelight because of her successful conquest in acquiring a fraternity pin. It is true that at the start she met with reverses, but after repeated efforts she is at the zenith of her glory, and stands in position Which is envied by her classmates. Wonderful it is that one so young and tender should accomplish her purpose so soon after entering Miami. For this reason, and this reason only, do we put iiRedii in this hall of immortals. itMARK ANTIIONYii-This is Mark of the red ears. That is his chronic ?, iiHONKUS MARKLEY Last of the noble B. N.

Try as hard as he Will, he cannot help but be a brilliant student, although no one has ever accused him of looking the part or acting the grind. But tell us, Honkus, why your Classic countenance does not appear With those of your Class- state, at least he always assumes that attitude When bluiiing in class and that is What heis generally trying to do. Needless to say the profs can see through his game as easily as the proverbial small boy sees the game through a knot hole. Look anywhere on the campus, leaning out of a lab window, bobbing over a tennis court or swinging down the Sig path and you can always see mates?

It is expected that the student will use these cuts when Dean Minnich occupies the pulpit. SOCIAL LIFE IN THE UNIVERSITY The student at Miami is afforded every opportunity for social inter- course with his fellow students. Many college organizations, such as the Golf Club, Oxford College, Honkus Markleyis Stump Dodgers, Dis- ciples 0f Mick Bader, itFreshmen Lectureii Course, Fountain Dippers and the Cobblers, exist for the purpose of promoting good fellowship among the members of the student body. HONORS-ST. PATRICKiS DAY SPEAKERS The six seniors who have attained the greatest proficiency in slipping back from Hamilton, are appointed to deliver orations on St. Patrickis Day. A term of chapel pie or two years subscription to the ttAestatii is awarded to the speaker who gives the best treatise on Doctor Clark,s gestures in three movements. THE PHI BETA KAPPA SOCIETY Those who at the end of the second term of Junior year have sue- ceeded in blufiing the largest number of professors and have taken the largest number of cuts from recitations without being found out, are, if their favorite professor has a sufficient pull with the faculty, elected members of the Phi Beta Kappa Society. Those who at the end of the Senior year have the. darkest circles under their eyes, and whose clothes smell of midnight oil, are also elected to this society.

Fraternity and Sorority Decalogs FRATERNITY DECALOG I Brother, in the beginning say we unto you: Behave thou, when rushing a man as if every other Frat were thy mother-in-law. 11 Even when the lad thou has bid sayeth iiyeaf flaunt it not before thy fellows till it be down in black and white. III In choosing a new brother, covet not his Chalmers-Detroit or his meerschaum for thy bunch. For verily, the former may not be paid for, and the latter only a four-flush. IV Blow not thine own horn when thy frat brother will do it for thee. V Remember, thou, that a man is known by the girl he keeps, be she Western, College or Co-ed. VI Thou shouldst not strut about the Frat-House with thy hat on, nor shouldst thou have a jag on. VII Smoke not in one day more than forty-eight Cigarettes: be they either Pall Malls or Fatimas. VIII Forget not to study occasionally thinking that a iismokerti will insure thee an iiAf, for thy Prof may surprise thee. IX Attempt not to carry on a flirtation with more than one girl in the same sorority for they may compare notes. X And Iinally say we: Judge thou a man by the way he shakes hands. SORORITY DECALOG. I Sister, take not the pledge ribbons of a sorority because they seem pleasing to thine eye; nor say nay to another because their pin is not a seemly pattern, for verily, these be vain things. II When thou woulCYst bid a friend to thy sorority, speak not of the others with scorn and contumely, for she may not go thy way, and may later cause thee to be disliked. 111 When thou wishest a girl compliment her on her high. arch and her short upper 1ip-thou shalt win her for sure. IV Forget not to study occasionally for what will thy charm and p0p- ularity avail thee if thou art expelled from college. V Remember thou that giggling is not holy, even though smiles are the soqu kisses. VI Remember thou also that Platonic friendships with men are beau- tiful possibilities-when thou art about eighty. VII Afflict not thy sisters with thy musical accomplishments, singing iila, lat, even to the eleventh hour. VIII Vote not iinayb upon a charming damsel because thy steady looks upon her with eyes of approval, for of a truth, thou shalt receive thy reward. IX When the maiden thou biddest sayeth tinot to thee, go not among the multitude saying, iiBehold we are glad we joined those people, for thou shalt deceive no one by so doing?

DELTA ZETA It was late in the afternoon of one of those beautiful autumn days, or it might be said autumnal, just as the sun was sinking behind the western hills, showing only the splendor of its mighty power, that the speedy Delta Zeta aggregation lined up against the powerful Phi Tau team. As stated above the weather conditions were ideal. The old athletic ii-eld looked its best. The grass had been neatly trimmed in order that no fine point, in the game should be overlooked by the critical crowd. In a box on the west side of the Iield was seated the Pi Delta Kappa team, which had previously lost to the Phi Tauis and was now especially anxious to see their rivals defeated, for this game was to decide the championship of the sorority league. The faculty occupied the stand on the east side. Prof. Burke was in position to lead the cheering. The student body filled in around the edges and itShorty,t Herald took all comers at three to one on Delta Zeta, while the Phi Tau backers were no less loyal, Sullivan and Kinder covering all bets. A ripple of excitement ran over the crowd as iiJackti McVey led her team onto the iield. Heavy sweaters were cast aside and a speedy signal practice was indulged in. This merely caused a slight fluctua- tion in the betting, and tiShortyt, began to take in money at five to one. At this point Hoes Mann led her warriors upon the field. They circled the track twice in an effort to gain the elusive iisecond wind? To the delight of her comrades tiRedi, Gaskill landed the prize and the Phi Tau team trotted triumphantly onto the gridiron. A moment later a coin glittered in the soft sunlight and iiJacki, McVey had won the toss. She decided to defend the south goal, claim- ing that it was nearer home. Mrs. Stone had thoughtfully placed the pigskin in the center of the held on a beautiful battenburg doily, to the delight of Prof. Carter. The refereess sounded her whistle and the teams lined up.

It was a beautiful kick, but a trifle too high. It was caught by iiMaggiel, Shera, who was downed in her tracks. iiDocti Benton got busy and the Phi Tau attack was something fierce. All in vain, however, for the Delta Zeta line, remained as firm as the proverbial oak. The game from this point became a series of punts and poorly executed forward passes.

It was a marvelous feat and was applauded by an appreciative audience. ttHershie,t Walker stepped to the front in a very gentlemanly way and announced that the necessary time had expired. His noble ser- vice was generously applauded. McVey failed to kick goal, and the iirst half ended 5 t0 0 in favor of the Delta Zetas. During the intermission Prof. Burke entertained the crowd by a wonderful muscle dance and incidentally led a few cheers. Time was called and the play resumed. Only one feature marked this half and that was the touchdown made by ttSpeedyt, Bridge after a neat forward pass. The Phi Tauts attempt at a goal was in vain, and thus the score was tied. After this the playing became very fierce on both sides and as a result the whistle blew before another point was scored. The line-up: A STUDY IN ARMS Phi Tau. Beta Zeta. itlvey Beaman ..............

By a decision of Judge Prexy last week the Girls Athletic Associa- tion is sentenced to pay out of its overflowing coffers a fine of $75 for a cow killed on golf links by one of its members while playing golf. An inhabitant of Oxford some time ago filed suit against Audrey Richards for striking with intent to kill a perfectly good Jersey cow. The cow was alleged to have been hit between the eyes. Evidnce for the plaintiff showed that the cow was a very valuable animal, and gave four pounds of butter a week. Also that he paid high price for pasture and that he understood included protectionage. Showed that cow was unobstrusive and never ate the flags. Evidence for defendant show that Miss Richards invariably hit nothing but the dirt, and that the cow wasntt near the golf course at time of action. Also proved that the ball she used was not a iiRed Dotti and therefore could not kill the animal. Laurie Swan was attorney for plaintiff and Mrs. Tudor for the de- fendant. GUARDIAN APPOINTED Miss Morris has been appointed guardian of iiDickii Benton. His cuts are valued at 45 per term. POLICE DOCKET tSpring Term of Courti James McKee Coyner, alias Jimmie?

But part of any success we may have achieved is due to generous co-operation on the part of some not directly connected with the staff. We take especial pride in the drawings and art work. The staff is indebted to Huston, i13; Mace, 14; Law, 14; Hitch- cock, ilO; Misses Underhill, i12; Botts, 12; Duffy, 12, and Swan, Miss Miller and Miss Davidson 0f the faculty. For assistance in the way of obtaining photographs, we wish to thank OiByrne ill, and Professor Hoke. Misses Laxford, 12, and OiConner, ,12, have been of service in collecting Sophomore N ormal statistics and photographs. The staff wishes to thank Dr. Benton, who has ever been ready with thought- ful and practical suggestions. The work of the Stafford Engraving Company and the Aetna Press, both of Indianapolis, has been highly satisfactory, and we do not hesitate to recom- mend them to our successors.
