I myself uill be your teacher, Teach you how to put sigu-language 0n. the shins of deer and bison, How to tell a tale in, bead-work, 11070 to bind the shins urith sinews That you may preserre forever All the deeds of the J1 iamis. ,l Thus concluded the Great Spirit, hearing me awake and troubled. Tuelre long moons hare passed above us While I labored at this record, Saying nothing of my rision. Now at last the task is .hm'sherla Here, 0 Izvarriors of Jliami, Head of all your deeds of ralour, Read the deeds of all the people: Who are bravest of your young men. Ulho are fairest of your maidens, 11720 the quickest are at learning All the lore of all the forest, Who are best at story telling.

Gym 21 0.827211: PA f W2 TVVENT Y- FOUR Celebration of F ounder,s Day F the many well worth things which B'Iiami has brought us this year, that of the celebration of Foundefs Day is one of the most important. It has left in the minds of the entire student body a knowledge of the early days Of the University, and an insight, however small, into the lives of those men who helped make our Alma BxIater an institution of enduring strength. T hursday, February 17, was the 107th anniversary of the incorporation of BIiami Iiniversity by the State Legislature and con- sequently this day was set aside as Founders Day, and appropriate exercises were held in chapel under the direction of Dean Brandon to celebrate the occasion. The services were opened with an a 'ademic procession of the faculty. and the choir and student, body enthusiastically sang BIiami songs. The history of the University in its early days was outlined by three talks given by three members of the faculty. Professor Bradford spoke on the events that led up to the founding of BIiami, told of the sparsely settled country, and pictured for us life as it was then lived in the rough log cabins, which, nevertheless, were the homes of the first true and loyal sons Of Old BIiami. PAGE TWENTY-FIVE PAGE TWENTY-SIX V V D D MIAMI l9l6 Founder's Day Interesting, too, was the sketch Dean Brandon gave of the first year of University activity from 1824 to 1825. There were not so many students in those days, but the vigilant professors even then took keen delight. in marking down absences, and the habitual class cutters were as surely ear-marked then as they are today. Professor Upham told the history of the founding and activity of the literary societies. The celebration of the anniversary did not end with the seven- teenth, but for the remainder of February part of the west room of the library was utilized for an exhibit of particular interest to all who were concerned with the history of the earlier days of Old :VIiami. This Miami Historical Exhibit contained maps showing the resi- dence of students and the distribution of alumni at different times in the college history; also graphs of attendance showing the growth of the University, the Old peace pipe, and various other exhibits of historical interest. Thus the Observance of Founders Day with a renewal of all the wealth of history, legend, and anecdote which makes Miami famous, has done much to make the students of the New Miami understand and appreciate the life of Old Miami as it was in the days Of her early history.

Willis who made the commencement address. An unusual number of alumni attended the various class reunions and the campus, always beautiful in commencement season, was the scene of hand shaking and well Wishing on all sides. The Village Of Oxford suspended business and decorated High Street in honor of the Governors Visit. E'g'hty-seven students received diplomas from Ohio State Nor- mal Collage and sixty-one received the degree of Bachelor of Arts from the Liberal Arts College at hiiamfs seventy-sixth Commence- ment. The academic procession formed in front of the Auditorium and led by the University Band it marched through the campus. The procession paused long enough on its line of march to dedicate the new Chemistry Laboratory. Dr. J Ohn 1W. VVithrOW ,7 5 made a brief address. When the procession reached the auditorium the ad- dress was delivered by the governor. Following the address and the conferring 0f the degrees on the graduates of both colleges, the follow- ing award of prizes was made:- Bishop Latin prize, $25, Harold LeRoy Hoffman, of 1Vest Car- rollton; Elliott Greek prize, $25, Julian Price Love, of Oxford; Trusteest Oratorical prize, $25, Victor Schmidt, of Trenton; BIC- Farland Mathematical prize, $25, J ohn S.

NLY THE vainglorious enjoy the writing of their own epitaphs. It is indeed a heavy task to steer a straight course between the Scylla of conceit and the Charybdis of self effacement in the writing of a class history, particularly in the writing of a senior history, which is certainly an epitaphv-unless perchance it be a phrophecy. If the history of the class of 1916 of BIiami University were to be written by the hand of one not of its number, the Class would wish that the resume of its activi- ties and services be full and fair yet couched in no grandiloquent language. It would wish that due mention be made of the services to Alma Mater of its athletic members, that it be not forgotten that it numbers among these, one Howard Ross, who has the unique distinction of having won nine V arsity BPS. It would have it remembered that to tell of musical, dramatic, literary and social activities of the University it has contributed its due quota both of individual talent and group support. It would desire that one seeking to form an estimate of the services of the class would consult the pages on which the senior honors are recorded and those on which the various activities of undergraduate life are depicted or reviewed. As a group the class of 1916 has served BIiami according to the best of its 001- lective ability. It has helped in the making of certain Chapters Which will shine bright in the great book of the history of Ohiois most splendid college. Yet in the hearts of those of 1916 there is no whispering voice of self commendation but rather one of regret that the service has not been greater, the gift to Alma BIater infinately richer. With all this goes the hope that each succeeding class may far surpass the achievements of 1916, that each year lliami may be better served by her children. Last of all the class of 1916, in parting, pledges to Bliami love and fealty in the years to come, promising that good or brave deeds Which its members may do in the great world outside the campus gates shall be done-all in the holy name of Alma Blater.

We all realize that. You see if you haveift faith in yourself youire a goner. The same is true of a live class in a real college. We of the Class of 1917 have faith in Miami, and we have faith that she will keep faith in us. That is why this class is some class. There isn't so very much to say about our- selves that all of you dont know already. The idea of the Sophomore Hop at BIiami was con- ceived and first given by us. In athletics, dra- matics, society and all other phases of student activities the pace was mostly our own. Our scholastic standing is a high one. tlDonit think conceit is on me tongue. l, You see we are merely doing our duty. ttClass histories are little admiration societies in themselves? Can you blame a some class then, for only stating facts, to living up to traditions by doing so, for merely admitting it is the original little self- starter, eight cylinder class of the university? We think we should not be blamed now, or next year either, perhaps. R. L. R.

Gordon takes the blue ribbon in the funny combination contest. He has a face like a hippogriff, and a voice like a cathedral bell. For the past three seasons his bellowings have added a creditable amount of volume and eclat to the bass section of the Glee Club, While his handling of the big stick on the big bass drum in the band has added so much to his rep as an occasional squire of dames that he has Don Juan looking like a bashful bohunk. Y ep, he is to be business manager of the Miami Student next year. It is hard to picture the future of such a paradoxical being as Gordon. Some day he may be the owner of a department store, religious scruples, and a second Wife. . M. BARKLEY, CIDAG, COLLEGE CORNER. You get that, do you? It is not Harry BI. or merely Harry, but H. DI. Barkley. Just that. Perhaps that is the way of doing it down at Bloomington. You know Harry, like most Hoosiers, is vigorously proud of anything in, or concern- ing Indiana, and especially the University, Where he spent his fresh. days. A member of the Chocolate Shop army, an occasional fusser, and here of late a crusader in Dr. Fink,s movement. If that doesnit size you up half way, Harry, why just come around and let us get acquainted with you. Honest! FRANK C. BEEKS, cIDAG, OXFORD, OHIO. Perhaps some one may eventually assassinate F rank, but not for the same fault that caused the mob to make a cadaver out of the noble and efficient Julius. F rank prefers inertia to activity which might cause discomfort to any one concerned. His pulchritude is of the wistful, flower-like variety. On rare occasions Frankie may be seen promenading about the campus, a beatific smile graven athwart his countenance, and seemingly very much at peace with the world. In addition to these accomplishments, he plays the Hute and some- times smokes a pipe. D MIAMI o 7' BIG 4 r Juniors E. L. BOLENDER, OXFORD, OHIO. Ladies, may I present BIr. Bolender, E. L. Bolender? Yes, this is his first year in our classic midst. No, I donit know where he came from, or just ex- actly where he is going. Suffice it to say he is on his way, he is, he is indeed. Perhaps we all Will get acquainted With him some day. He looks like a married man, you say. iVell, we don,t know as to that, but the mere thought of E. L. does somehow make us more ashamed of this wicked world than ever. LEDA M. BIGONY, AAA, LEBANON, OHIO. ii Gott in Himmel, dieses AmerikaW No, that's not some little local Columbus pulling some discovery act. In fact it is our own little quiet Leda iigetting intoi, her part for the BIid-year Play you know us actorines have just got to feel our parts! Getting off this real stuff though, Leda, like llaggie in iWVhat Every iVoman Knowsfi has charm. so like Barrie we sum up the characteri- zation in just that. HARRY W. BROWN, B811, Grail, GLENDALE, OHIO. Harry produces a luminous reflection in more than one line of endeavor. Last January he achieved a stupendous marvel of social engineering when he put through the Junior Prom. As a member of the Glee Club he has shown that he possesses a voice which goes well in a varsity quartette. There was a girl once, but Harryis efforts were not attended by the usual success. Besides all these estimable qualities, he wears clean collars and doesnit carry matches. PAGE FIFTY-SEVEN O 0. MIAMI V t me i Juniors HARLEY PROCTOR BROWN, AKE, CINCINNATI, OHIO. wSmile and the world smiles with youhethatis Harley. If you didnit recog- nize him by that, youid know his cute little toboganned head and Prince Albert overcoat, as he comes hurrying down High Street, a half bushel basket filled with products of Brown,s Grocery and Burkhardfs on his arm, which tthat is the contents of the basket, not the arml is to save tiBIawtha and her friends shut up in the Normal Building from slow starvation. Then thereis his pro- pensity for Botany, Sunday School, and galoshes, but the greatest of these is Botany. We all like you, Harley; so donit pout now. HAROLD L. HOFFMAN, AAE, cIDBK, WEST CARROLLTON, OHIO. Some people can see the plainest and commonest things through the eyes of an artist, and what is more can voice such pleasures in poetry. That's Harold. He is considered one of the best scholars in college too, since he has practically llcinched,i that key this year. Quiet to a fault, perhaps, yet he is-a scholar and a gentleman. J . EDWIN HULL, CDAG, Grail, GREENFIELD, OHIo. liIndeed, I haven,t any dimplesfieeand then a smile disproves the statement. But modest little Ed, after spending a long half hour before the mirror, says both the smile, dimples, and curly locks, were wished on him, so we mustn,t blame him too much. But there are more reasons than one why he was chosen our president, and although Ed. seems immune against the attacks of even the fairest of co-eds, follow the glances of most of them at any football game, and you'll soon find the licenterll of attraction. tA girl wrote this clever little write-up, Ed, so keep your thoughts to yourself and donit blame usJ PAGE FIFTY-EIGHT a MIAMI a V ISIS 4 r Juniors NIEL A.

Away back in our freshman days Buck used to be noted for his abilty to get out Of the usual work expected of fraternity pledges and the like. Curiously enough some proofs still insist on recognizing that same ability in regard to class work. Cheer up, Buck, most great men are misunderstood, ytknow. You Will always have a host of friends and followers, for besides being ttBuckh you are, on the piano, the original ttRag Time Pickint Elan? VICTORIA CARSON, AZ, OXFORD, OHIO. In a moment of rare inspiration, Victoria deserted the ranks of the barbarian culturists and decided to acquire a real education. As a result of her meteoric career in the Normal College, she is well versed in the various phases of academic agriculture and can quote extensively from the ttWeed Catalogue? Her thoughts and conversation are apparently unsullied by any masculine in- Huence. A. MALCOLM CLARK, WP, EAXII, KANE, PA. When Mullie came to us three years ago, a sweet, innocent, little man of a boy we little guessed that he was to make a name for himself in both the dramatic and musical world. Then, too, Mullie is quite the little globe trotter, While journeying on that little road ending With the planting of ones fraternity pin was taken some time ago. Eh, Mullie? PAGE FIFTY-NIN E PAGE SIXTY D D MIAMI l9l6 Juniors FRED W. CLIMER, WP, Grail, WINCHESTER, IND. Away back in our sophomore days F red sought to intervene in romance. Then something happened that made him one of the local disciples to the god Ef- ficiency. He also became more interested in the local press than ever. In fact he soon became editor-in-chief of that staid and conservative weekly, THE MIAMI STUDENT. Owing to kindly stupidity, prevalent hereabouts, it is not generally known that Fritz is Phi Beta Kappa stuff. Oh, hes a Junior all right, all right. LESTER D. CONDIT, URBANA, OHIO. Lester's most valid claim to manly beauty lies in his disposition. His conduct toward his co-aspirants in the field of learning has been replete with instances of gentleness and courtesy that cannot be surpassed. He has a mind that can contain as many statistics as a congressional record. F urthermore he is a typewriter virtuoso. He is the statistical factotum of our department of physical education. We regret that we have not the space to record his ac- complishments in more detailed form. HAROLD K. COULTER, AKE, OXFORD, OHIO. Harold is still famous for that vigorous remark he made in our dorm days dur- ing the arduous life of our first rushing season, ltFellows, congratulate me, I,Ve gone Deke, and believe me, were strong in the East? Nor is this his only Claim to the rank of the immortals. Your spectacular playing on the basketball floor, Harold, even exceeds your versatility in your trying to make us misunderstand you. Anyway, here's to you! u. o MIAMI a V l9l6 t r Juniors ROBERT H. CRANDALL, AT, DAYTON, OHIO. Bob Crandall, dreamy, mystic, yet impassionedi is famous for the polish of his dancing, his classic figure, and the inspiration he affords other artists on the campus. The sensational success of his amazing fantasies of current exotic happenings in the local press would lose half their significance in a common- place setting, or aceomapnied by banal music. Ditching those crandalesque phrases, we merely wanted to say that all the above is pure bosh-all but that about his success with his ttAround About lliamii, in the Student. That column is like Bobefrank, clever. and inclined to hit the nail on the head when it comes to philosophizing. LILLIAN DAUGHERTY, KTE, HAMILTON, OHIO. Lil is from Hamilton, but we have it from good authority that she should not be blamed for that. And could you imagine that one would consider a Hamil- tonian other than being demurely sweet and coquettish? lVell, some do. In- deed we overheard someone tell another party that they had heard it said that it wouldnt surprise them if Lil Daugherty made a sensational success on the stage owing to the supreme technical and lyric excellence of her voice. XVe certainly dOIft know what that means. But it must be orful! VIVIAN F. CRAWFORD, BGII, Grail, EAXII, VVoonsrooK, OHIO. This is it Chief ,i, one of our all-round athletes, and charter members of the Piper Heidsick Ornery Fraternity of ttthose good old daysii, according to some of our younger alumni. Sidestepping, as it were, for the stast sob sister, tthithin the past year Chief has become a veritable demi-god, and instead of going to church on Sunday evenings, the girls of Bishop Hall assemble in dark, secret places and kneel in adorationbefore some blurred clipping of Chief in a football suit. But Adonis goes his own sweet way ii lVe are glad of that last, Chief. You know us girls cant be to careful. PAGE SIXTY-ONEZ D MIAMI a ,l9l6 Juniors MAX G. DICE, AT, WASHIXGTON, C. H., OHIO. Blax is one of those little devils that delights to give forth melodious tones in the mellow moonlight. YouVe guessed it, girlseyes, hes the second tenor famed in Delta U,s serenades. Likewise, he is one of the few real literary lights of the school. Perhaps that accounts for that teinpermental sniffling and biting of nails he occasionally gives vent to. W'ell, they say he has sundry adventures, while his calling list at Western, the College, Dayton, and Hamil- ton was, well, quite large. All this was before a certain J unionebut we guess that would be telling. MARGARET DEVINE, AZ, OXFORD, OHIO. ilThere are a few things I couldna be, if men wad let me, and I tried. ii T hat,s Marg, all right. Like Bunty herself, she has a habit of itpul inl 2f the strings, it for we all know she can be depended upon in student activities. She is quite athletic too, and occasionally deigns to play this society game. But even at that, Blarg, they do say that it is better to be your friend than,ewell the object of some of your frank statements. PAUL G. DEEM, 613MB, EATON, OHIO. One glance at the hardened expression upon this manls face stamps him at once for what he is: a rogue, a breaker of hearts, and a cynic. lVe have been told that a cynic is a creature that thinks with its stomach. As a result, we have a good deal of trouble trying to figure out just what purpose Petey,s head was meant to serve. Yet, he has a strong and dominating character. Indeed, it is said from authoritative sources that he will stay up all night in order to be the last one in bed. Imagine! PAGE SIXTY-TXVO '7 D MIAMI a BIG 4 r Juniors GITY BFRDETTE HARLEY, AKE, JAMESTOWN, OHIO. Burdette is descended from an almost extinct race of aboriginal giants Who are said to inhabit the wilds surrounding the picturesque hamlet of Jamestown. For two seasons, his physiognomy and gridiron ability have struck terror into the hearts of Bliamiis football Opponents. Despite the ferocity of his appear- ance. he is very Iiiild-mannered and can be fed and watered in the ordinary way. Considering all the things we could have but didnt say, don't you think the above a Clever little write-up, Burdette? Believe us, Xantippe, you'd better. RALPH F. EHLER, DAYTON. OHIO. Here we. have six feet, two inches of sweet disposition. Ralph is assistant track manager and was the Shylock 0f the Junior Prom Committee. Ralph came to lliami with the intentions of getting a year of Arts before entering the field of equine homeopathy. The virus of the place got into his blood, however, and he is still here, and is proving to us that he is an asset to the J unior class. His sterling worth and Virtue are wondered at, even in this abstemious com- munity. Drive on, is right! MYRON B. ELLS, chB, OXFORD, OHIO. lVIyron looks like a professional gambler, full of ways that are dark and tricks that are vain. In the Winter time, society absorbs much of his attention, but When the weather gets warmer and the 01d bench reappears in front of a certain prominent hair-cutting establishment, he resumes his position as autocrat 0f the Overholtz Clique. It is in this position, it is said, that his scintilating brilliance of intellect and dominating personality are shown to the best ad- vantage. Yes? PAGE SIXTY-THREE PAGE SIXTY-FOCR V D C MIAMI l9l6 Juniors HERBERT F. ELLSXVORTH, AKE, BOWLIXG GREEN, OHIO. Herb is an excellent example of that peculiar species of flora which does not blush in public. He knows how to use his brains and always acts on his own initiative. In fact, Herb, youire so darn quiet and such a likeable cuss, we couldnit knock you if we tried. So, run along. ALMA M. ERBS, HAMILTON, OHIO. This is Alma, one of the pluckiest girls in school.

Dur- ' ing the winter months Mr. Fox has a position on the Oxford College Faculty as Professm' of Female Basketball.

Clarence, himself, isnit real positive, that the burden of the nation Will rest on his shoulders alone.

Here at Miami we have Anna Haigh. She can impersonate any one from threxyll down to itGrouchil, and What is more she does it too. The famous llMidnight Fire Drilll, and numerous other clever escapades are due to Anna. You can see for yourself that the above miss is some liwonderil girl herself, nor is this press agent stuff either. EARL D. HANSBARGER, QDAW, ANSONIA, OHIo. This is Hans, an Irishman With a Dutch name. He is noted for his genial dispOsition, and his stick-to-it-iveness.

ELSIE HUDSON, X9, BUFFALO, N. Y. Elsie is an honest to goodness metropolitan. She hails from Buffalo. but never brags about it. She is not as demure as she looks. She has Bohemian tenden- cies, a temperament and common sense. But her tendencies are things of the past. She has become one of the members of the Student Council, the august and select body Which controls the moral and otherwise destinies of the female contingent. The confines of Hepburn Hall are no longer startled by her charming giggle ringing down the corridors in the still watches of the night. Elsie now resides at Bishop. RICHARD H.

If the fable of the tortoise and the hare is ever dramatized, Joe Will star in the role of the amphibian. A wondrous metamorphosis has indeed taken place in Joeis exterior. He arrived here a marvel of verdancy. He was aware of this and possessed a great Willingness to learn. By means of a great many foolish questions, he acquired a partial knowledge of the Wicked world Which F ate had chosen for him to inhabit. In spite of his hard and cynical exterior, Joe retains those upright and sterling qualities Which he acquired on the farm while he was but a boy. He is exceptionally honest and conscientious. He didnit even cut Chapel until his J unior year. He is becoming more abandoned as the years go by, however, and has been known to carry matches and commit other acts of depravity.

Even at that, Loudy, you arenit afraid to say what you think in the right place. For Which we occasionally give thanks. STUART LOWE, AT, PIQUA, OHIO. Stuby is a charmingly pessimistic youth Who is perpetually undecided as to Whether to be an athelete or to cultivate his intellect. He is perpetually wrapped in the sable cloak of skepticism. While quite young, he hit upon the idea that he possibly possessed the same faults Which he found in others. This lugubrious discovery has filled his days With woe. Stuby is commonly known as a youth of common sense. Like the rest of us, he sometimes slips up. T W0 of his fraternity brothers once found him busily writing. A smile of the con- sistency of recently cooked mush lay encamped on his thoughtful countenance. iWVattche doini Staffordfw inquired his brothers in refined accents. iiOh, I am writing a train letter to Fay.

There,s always a mystery about the fellow Who keeps his mouth shut, yet is always doing things worth While. Ralph is somewhat of a mystery. We can remember though iway back in those old J ohnson Hall days When he was one of that coterie that delighted in perpetuating notorious crimes and rough houses, to hang out of a Window at midnight and talk naughty little cuss words to some one a square away. But Ralph has reformed. He is echient. He even fus- ses, not the girls, but the girl! l9l6 Juniors OLIVE MAC CUNE, AZ, PIQUA, OHIO.

However, we carft say we know her exactly well enough to tell of her actions in full.

But to get back to and finishing up Oscar. we have said everything sayable so Will do the usual passing on, and this time to no lesser personage than Guinn BIattern. GUINN MATTERN, BGH, DAYTON, OHIO.

One would never dare imagine that underneath Guinnls somber, meek exterior lies the soul of a mystic and the mind of a philosopher. lVell, they don't. It is on the football field that BIattyis claims to greatness arise, and believe us he sure has some claims. No, boys and girls, Matty doesnlt have that air, the sorter aloof cynicism all the time.

Be that as it may she,s giggled her way successfully thru all her classes, and even Sociology had no terrors for her, so hats off to Emily, the giggler, for she gets by successfully With all she undertakes. ALLEN POAST, GERMANTOWN, OHIO. Allen is another member of the class you wouldnit exactly accuse of being a, Beau Brummel or a ladies, man. He, too, goes his own sweet way and lets the co-eds go theirs. In the class room, Allen is perfectly content to let the prof do the talking. In other words, he doesnlt bluff by being everlastingly on the jump trying to get the prof. off on a tangent. But you needn,t be so ap- parently melancholy, Allen, or is it merely a pose? FAY M.

But all that is neither here nor there. a MIAMI a 7' ISIS 4 r Juniors FRED PRUDEN, cPAiII, SIDNEY, OHIo. F ritz is a Sidney product. Loudenbaeh calls that his home too, while Bob.

But that smile is one of the things that itDoch Young shows all prospectives. Yes, itis some smile. Daily attendance at chapel is Fritz,s long suit, and he gets as much pleasure out of iitiming the length of prayersii as other people derive from watching his antics at a football game. GRACE M. REEVE, SOMERVILLE, OHIO. To say that Grace knows the meaning of italnoi is putting it mildly. She conjugates it in the terms of a certain football star, a man from home. She never misses summer school, although she has been known to cut chapel. And Greekeperhaps the least said about that subject and Grace the better. 9 LIOYD G. REESE, EAST LIVERPOOL. OHIO. Another one of those quiet juniors about Whom we have nothing sarcastic to say. For three short years Lloyd has tended strictly to his own affairs, ap- parently. He has not fussed the ladies, or if he has he certainly hasn,t run any one a race for the big dav. on a Saturday night over in Bishop Hall, nor has he attended any of the numerous money-making schemes that the High street Female Institution give for the purpose of raising their precious little endowment fund. In brief then, Lloyd is quiet and seems industrious. That is all. PAGE SEYENTY-FIVE MIAMI 0' l9l6 Juniors ROGER L. ROTHXVELL, EX, Grail, CITRONELLE, ALABAMA. Roger always has more business to attend to than a whiffinpoof with seven noses and a cold in the head. He is the editor of this book and the members of this staff take this opportunity to announce that anything in here which the reader does not like is Rogeris fault. Roger has a conscience which he sometimes exhibits publicly. Also he has a way of getting what he wants and has very lofty ideals, perhaps. He is a purposive fusser, and about as romatic as an alarm clock. As a literateur, his style is clear, forceful and impossible to imitate. The same is true of his broad-jumping. In conclusion we would say that Roger is a respected and beloved member of our community; that he gets by on his ability and apparent wlllingness to work, and, so far as we know, he has never been caught doing anything he ought to be ashamed of. MINERVA REEVE, SOMERYILLE, OHIO. 31inerva hails from Somerville and like the goddess she is named after has unusual talents. It is reported that she has strong likes and dislikes. then- ever she can,t endure a prof. she simply drops his course. Just like that. Summer school is one of her pet diversions. You see summer school is some- what noted for the good times you sometimes have along with the work you sometimes do. E. L. SCHNEIDER, BQH, EXCELLO, OHIO. This is the man that managed this great undertaking, the dollars and cents part that is. And since he had to be the immediate successor of such hardened disciples of the almighty dollar as Hinkle and Schattschneider you ll all 1ealize that he had some job. But making Phi Beta Kappa keys and 111anaging year books are just like that to WSchnitz . As it has been said of another member of the Reeensio staff on this page so it can be equally well said of ttPeck'P- he too, has a conscience although he successfully hides it by a cool, reserved, cynical manner and a mask-like countenance.

Ruth turns up her nose at the men-says she can find enough of them at home,-and she came to Miami for a change. Why canit the rest of us feel like Ruth about this? E. TURNER STUMP, SHIP, ZANESVILLE, OHIO. Turner is the only man at Miami WhO can boast of a physiognomy as pie- turesque as that of Abraham Lincoln, and Whose brevity and simplicity of oratory can rival that of the Great Emancipator. He is a debater of rare accomplishment and a Doric column of righteousness in the Y. M. C. A. While serious to a fault, he has a subtle sense of humor. More than once has he play- ed practical jokes on his more unenlightened fellow students. For evidence of this, search the files of the Student for poetry appearing over such nommes de plume as iiEternal Bill,i and tiPifHesii. And to think his hat is no longer in the ring. Yes girls, he has fallen in love. PAGE SEVENTY-NINE D MIAMI a V l9l6 PAGE EIGHT Y Juniors RAY SL'NDERLAND, OXFORD, OHIO.

Any- how hels true, for many an unsuspecting Freshman tries to lure him with her glances, but all to no avail. The Juniors learned that long ago.

Theres never any doubt left in anyone's mind when hels finished that he couldnit take the professors place and improve on his method of recitation. lVell. perhaps he could, who knows? CHOMING TSAI, PEKING, CHINA. I believe you would call Choming a modernist. It doesnt make so much difference if it is a new phase of the feminist movement, or a new novel; if the thing is new and up-to-date, Choming delights in it. And all the while she is delightfully loquacious. She tries to please, and since she is always interestingly charming the while, we all like her. It is rumored that there is a proverbial man liin the old home townl, in this case also. According to Chinese customs is it a case of ilCongraits or just ilBest wishes , Choming? NORMAN VAN AUSDALL, EX, OXFORD, 01110. A prejudiced, narrow-niinded, and spiteful individual once remarked to the effect that iiBillii would some day be a fusser. Let us hope he was a false prophet. Norman hasnlt gone out much for student activities, preferring, it seems, to he in the employe of Uncle Sam in his local domicile up on Govern- ment Square.

In other words, Bill, when are you goin' to fall in love? ISIS Juniors LOIS VANDERHOF F , CAREY, OHIO. The man who can move the depths of Lois, soul or get her to talk about her- self has some job.

W'ell, better there than not at alleand perhaps if we all knew her better, weld know that she is usually happyeat any rate, we all like her and thatis the main thing. RAYMON D WAGNER, AT, KENTON, OHIO. Raymond is an ex-cut-up of Hiram College and a living proof that the devil ever lurks within the shadows of the cross. Raymondis seraphic countenance often adorns the personnel of the llethodist choir, while the history of his crimes, misdemeanors, and breaches of the peace would fill a set of encyclo- pedias. Last year he figured in a contest to determine who was the handsomest man in lliami in his own estimation. Raymondis efforts were superhuman, but he could only make second best. In spite of this blow, Raymond still has a great deal of confidence in himself. Besides an exciting present, Ray- mond has a purple and palpitating past. He was once a promising railroad Clerk and a stellar performer in the Sunday School Basketball League. Ray- mond served his college well on the Glee Club Christmas trip. He did the solo work for the Club, while Professor EIartin carried the grippe. DIXIE WAKEFIELD, AAA, LOVELAND, OHIO. Ha! ha! Ho! ho! Hereis Dix. Not that she is a joke. I should say not. for Dix is occasionally a very serious minded young lady. If you doubt that just look on the iiBig Chier i17m page. Dixie has had one bully time ever since she has been in Oxford. She has got some corking good grades, and withal we never heard any one who didnit like her.

We are those beautiful beings WhO g0 robed in sweaters of green and gold, and in headgear 0f the same harmonious hues. The freshmen de- feated us in their barbaric sports, but they en- croached upon our superior dignity. We ignore them. Was not the Sophomore Hop the most mag- nificent social function of the year? We gave it YVe planned it. we executed it. The seniors we revere, but pityethey can never be divine sophomores. The juniors we con- demnethey question our prestige, and seek to humiliate us, who are all-powerful and omnipotent The freshmen, 0h glorious and wonderful readers, we cannot stoop to consider.

Those worthy gentlemen made our acquaintance the hrst couple of days, much to their sorrow. We have had many a harrowing experience since our advent into college like, and some of our men got off the main road somehow. At least they didntt pay the right kind of toll at examination time. Our journey along the road to commence- ment has been short, but look What we have aC- Complished in the way of athletics, scholastics, social activities, cheese spreading, dorm burning, etc. In all, the life of a Freshman is a jolly one. and we have lots of fun passing up BIath 1 and English 1 along With numerous side-shows.

Buntings were displayed in profusion, red and white pennants were exhibited galore, and the incoming autos were bedeeked with streamers. The why of all this is now history. It was the morning of the Miami-W'esleyan Home-Coming game. At about 9:30 oiclock that same afternoon, Oxford had reached her zenith, for a certain iiChieft, Crawford had scored the first 3113,1111 touchdown, and from that time on the fate of Wesleyan was decided. Before dusk the Big Reds had won a 10 to 7 Victory, as much to the satisfaction of the 3000 spectators, alumni, stu- dents, and townspeople, who packed the stands and crowded the side lines, as to the sorrow of the several hundred W'esleyan rooters. The spirit shown by the Miami rooters on that day has seldom, if ever, been surpassed on the Varsity field. The band, the cheer leaders, and the crowd, never once lagged in their enthusiasm, which was the most effective way of showing the honor and praise due the Big Reds. The history of that game, upon which the eyes of all those interested in Ohio Conference colleges were turned, does not need re-telling, but the loyalty and res- spect that the hundreds of alumni showed for their ALBIA RIATER that day must be chronicled. From far and wide they came, young and old, all efferveseing with that old Miami spirit, coming not only from their hearts, but from their throats and lungs. llany of them said afterwards that they were more used up than if they had played the game themselves. In the evening a big football pow-wow was held in the Commons. It was well attended and made enjoyable with lots of lively music, speeches, and an abundance of eats. The theme of all the talks was Victory, of course, but there was also a just amount of praise given to the creditable manner in which the lVesleyan team achitted itself. The program as well as the day, was brought to a close with 001d Miami? The crowd passed out into the night, the glare of Thobe,s lire- works blasted heavenward in the final effort to prolong Miamiis Greatest Home- Coming. N. C.

PAGE ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY t V D MIAMI D b l9l6 4 r Christian Associations Aim of the Young Menis Christian Association at Miami ANY opportunities for real service are open to a Young Blensi Christian Association on a college campus. As the educational and physical develop- ment of the men is well provided for by the college itself the activities of the Association are almost entirely of a religious or service nature. Although not all the Opportunities offered in this realm have been de- veloped, nevertheless the Bliami Association is doing some excellent work and is making sure strides in the direction of the ideal. Among the more distinctly religious activities, the first to be mentioned naturally are the regular devotional meetings held each week and the special meetings of a more or less similar nature. These meetings are designed to deal directly and in a practical manner with the problems of the college man, and for the presentation of these subjects the best leaders obtainable are secured, from the faculty, student body, and outside sources. Of the last class such men as iVIr. ti Ted i, Mercer, of New York, Dir. John W. Pontius, Secretary of the Y. BI. C. A. at Columbus, BIr. Harry N. Clarke, a prominent business man of Cleveland have been used this year, These meetings are proving very popular and are without doubt a strong factor of the work. Another form of religious activity is the promotion of Bible and Blis- sion Study classes of a discussional type. These classes are held in connection with the various Sunday Schools and in the various college homes. Finally the Association cooperates with the leaders of the churches in their endeavor to inter- est the students in the activities of the church. The service activities of the Association may again be divided into two Classes, those Off the campus and those on the campus. Of the former type, Gospel Team work, and work for the boys of the town is being developed with good results. Of the latter class there is first the reception of new men and the helping them to feel at home at Miami and to get into the spirit of the institution. Contributions to the social life of the college are made through general receptions early in the year for men alone, and men and women together, and through smaller group parties. An employment bureau is maintained in order to relate students who need to earn money to aid them in meeting their college expenses, to the jobs to be had. A club room for the men is also maintained upon the campus. The Association through these various activities enlists a large proportion of the men of the student body in its work. It is the great aim of the lVIiami As- sociation to enlist every man in college in some form of Christian service or spiritual activity. ARTHUR C. WICKENDEN PAGE ONE HUNDRED TVVENTY-ONE o MIAMI y ISIG 40 Christian Associations The Aim of the Young Womenis Christian Association ROBABLY in no other year has the Young lVomen's Christian Association been so conscious of its real aim, for this is its Jubilee year the time when we look back at fifty years of growtth and forward to the great untried future that lies ahead. Throughout the month of February, Associations all over the United States have been attempting to get before the public eye statements summarizing their great ideals and aims. The Miami Association has not been behind in this Jubilee spirit. Never before have Miami girls so fairly faced the question: iWVhat is the big aim of our organization:w In the fall, when there is such a host of new girls, the social aim of the Asso- ciation is most in evidence. The problem of helping over two hundred new girls find themselves a contented part of a strange college environment is not an easy task. T hen one of the biggest aims comes to the fore-front,--that of true friend- liness and unselfish friendship. For this end there are parties and receptions, but these after all are but superficial means through which we hope to promote a genial eompaniosnhip, which is the only foundation for real college democracy. But after these lirst days have passed another aim comes into greater promi- nence. There exists in every girl a deep religious sense that the rush of college life is apt to deaden. Here is our second problem. How can the great Christian ideals of living be kept before us in the midst of so much that seems sellish and lit- tle in college life. To answer this there are the weekly devotional meetings, the Bible and Mission study Classes, and the committee meetings. However, these first two aims but lead to a greater, and that is service. If the Y. W'. C. A. is not training girls to go from college with an overwhelming desire to serve their com- munity in its social and religious life, then it has failed to accomplish its greatest mission. It should be one of the best means in college of training girls for leader- ship, for if a girl has become the best type of Association worker, she is a good ex- ecutive, a keen judge of people, and an enthusiast in constructive work. She is just the kind of person for which the church is looking, and her devotional life has grown so that she herself feels the need of the church. Briefly stated then the Y. W'. C. A. at Miami has three big aimSeto awaken in girls a real appreciation of the people around them, to arouse a sense of the great spiritual value of life, and as a result of these two to send them out into the home and community with a great passion for service. To say that we are far away from accomplishing these aims is trite. But if we look back through the thirteen years of the life of this local association, we trace a gradual growth toward bigger things. And if we look with keen enough eyes into the future, we may see glimmerings of the greater Miami, whose watch- word is brotherhood, and whose criterion of values is service. One of the factors which shall be Vital in ushering in this greater college community will be the Young VVomenis Christian Association. GEORGIA RICHARDS.

Naturally it is not all that we have wished and planned, but we do believe we have accomplished a part of that which we have always striven for--a reproduction of that environment in which the sons and daughters of iiOld Miamii, have lived, are living, and will continue to live in each succeeding year of the new and greater iiOld Miamiii It was a grand task, bigger than we thought, or you think, yet we have enjoyed doing it. It is bully good fun doing your best, trying to make your own product measure up to your own ideals. We hope you like our book. That, also, is natural.

At least you cannot criticise our enthusiasm or the 1300le organized unity. And those, you see, were our keynotes. So as W'alter Brown,s well known Nobody of Ever'yzcoman fame would say, 11If it offend, mine be the blame, And if it please you just the same I promise you that Nobody will care, The staff of the present Recensio have at all times worked together in perfect harmony and co-operation. By limiting the staff to a comparatively few members a greater degree of efficiency was not only obtained, but much 11dead woody was eliminated. Nor is this the work of the staff alone. There have been many Who have aided us, not only in the giving of valuable suggestions, but also in the writing of articles as well. We wish to acknowledge our indebtedness to the members of the staff of last yearls Reeensio, and to Bliss BIary Edna Flegal, head of the Art Department, for the time She always willingly gave. To Miss Elise Eek, Miss Gertrude Wallace, and Miss Florence Reed, of the Art Department of 1914-15, credit is due for the brush lettering, the cover design, the illustration for the 1lSealp Songll, the Indian head-piece of the pages, and the arrangement of these pages. The picture of Robert Crandall, who has done some of the best work and to whom we are especially indebted, was inadvertently left off of the staff panels. We are sorry, Bob. We wish to thank all others who have in any way aided in the assembling of this Recensio. ROGER L. ROTHWELL. E. L. SCHNEIDER.

There is in us all a tendency to- 11'a1'd dramatic expression not far be- neath the surface, and it was to con- trol this tendency, to direct it into channels Which would make possible an adequate expression, that there has. grown up here at lliami since 1905 an organized effort which provides for the selection and production of at least three pla1's each 1'ear. These pla1's are produced b1' a carefullv selected student east; and the production 1s undertaken 111th the idea that the highest possible degrees of perfection be attained. And there 1s much to be derived from a highly st1i1' e11 effort for perfection. I11 the first place, behind all dramatic production is the idea that a C1oss- section of life 1s being brought out into the light, and if thele 1s to be an adequate- interpretatien there must be almost infinite pains taken 11' ith the production. I101 e- 01' er in st1111ng for perfection the members of the cast learn something of ac- euracy, something of the technique of detail necessary for the successful accomplish- ment of any enterprise. In the next place, the audience, seeing a play,carefull1' Chosen by competent judges as are all those produced here, 11' hieh has been prepared 101 111th all possible care, comes to ha1' e a heightened appreciation for 11 hat 18 good. in the drama and more and more is able to demand that nothing but the best bet3 pIO- dueed; hence When those thus trained t011'a1'd such desires go out into the 11' 011d, the drama they see lit to patronize Will be only of the best and sanest procurable. In this manner, themeby insisting upon perfectionecan the drama at BIiami best serve the students, and through them, in small degrees to be sure, can she serve- that ever increasing theater loving portion of the American people. Out of that originallv organized effort,11'hieh has made possible 0ur rapid; strides in dramatic achiev ement since 1905, has evolved Ye 31errie Play ers. ' a society affiliated with the Drama League of America. PROF. ARTHUR LOREN GATES PAGE ONE HUNIRED AND TWENTY-EIGHT V o MIAMI u 7' l9l6 4 r Dramatic 11 Ye 31errie Players 1, sprang into being as the result of the interest and enthus- iasm Which centered about the production of the 11Admirable Crichtoni, in 1911. It was thought at this time that dramaties at hliami could fill a much larger niche in university affairs than theretofore had been the ease; hence the founding of the society and the success of the movement down to the present. It is to Professor and Mrs. Arthur Loren Gates that the credit for the high standard of 1Aliamiis dramatic productions belong. T heir ability and untiring enthusiasm have made possible the rapid strides in dramatic achievement since 1905. This is realized and appreciated by Bliami men and women, but those Who have been fortunate enough to work in a play under Mr. Gates can understand this fact even better. As a member of one of the mid-year play casts once said, 111 have had more pleasure and got more real good out of working in this play than any other one thing in my college life? As regards choice of material for the productions there has been a variety utilized Which covers the entire field of dramatic writing. Nothing had been barred on account of its age; and as for freshness, the last year but one saw the production of Mr. Galsworthyk ttJusticeii, Which presentation anticipated the appearance of this play on Broadway by about two years. Attached is a catalogue of the plays produced in the past which W111 illustrate the scope of Miamiis abilities in dramatics: Shakespeare: The Comedy of Errors The Taming of the Shrew The Merchant of Venice Twelfth Night J .

Not much longer can we thrive here, Brothers of the bow and spear, Two. three moons and all is ovene IVe must wander homelessly Over dry, dust-coyei'ed deserts, Forest, mountain. river gone; Ever toward the land of sunset Must our aimless footsteps turn. Here 110 more well track the bison, Never hear the bulls deep roar, Never follow feud-strewn war-paths, Never tend 0111' council-fires. All the grounds of the great Spirit IVhich we've hunted now so long IVill be crowded soon with pale-face, Red man wandering 0n alone. A11 0111' race will be forgotten.

As we vanish ever faster F mm the tracts weye loved so well, In this 'ast expanse of forest Grows a nation great in power, I see many million people Building here, expanding there, And a race, their children's children, Come to rule the white manis world. Ever grows this race in progress, All it touches turns to gold. 3Iany seasons hence it conquers This whole land from sea to sea; And the murmur of the forest, Long a song to savage souls, At the will of busy builders, IVill have ceased long, long ago.

Yet the law which serves the strongest IVill have prospered mightily, And the nation which Oieri'ules us IYill be served by all the world.

The Blusic Department, Of BIiami University was original- ly organized to meet those conditions and all students preparing to teach in the grades are required to take courses in Elementary and Public School Music. At a later period the Department added a. Supervisoris Course to meet the growing demand for special music teachers and quite a number of stu- dents have been attracted by this course. It will be seen from the above that the primary Object of the Department is the training of teachers and supervisors in the subject of music as related to the public schools. But, it is through its secondary activities that the work of the Department has become such a popular and Vital factor in the college life. At the present time there are four musical organizations, embracing students from every depart- ment of the University, working under the direction of the thsic Department. They are as f0110ws:-T he Arion Choir, The Glee Club, The Bladrigal Club, and The University Orchestra. Each of these organizations was founded for the serious study and the public performance of standard musical works such as ora- torios, cantatas, Operas, part-songs for men,s voices, part-songs for womenis voices, and the larger instrumental works. A great, many fine works have been performed, thereby promoting the musical culture of the members of the various organizations and contributing materially t0 the artistic life of the community. The present season has been a fortunate one for all of the organizations. The big feature of the year, however, was the production, on April 14, 0f the opera, ithtarthai'. This was done without the assistance of visiting soloists and was the most pretentious thing ever undertaken by the Music Department. In summing up, it may be said that the sole aim of the thsic Department of hIiami University is the promotion of musical culture, in its various phases, among the students of the institution and the people of the community. In common with the other departments of the University, the Blusic Department has for its primary purpose the dissemination of information through its class-room instruc- tion. The greater part Of the time is devoted to those musical subjects which are directly related to the work of the public schools. AUBREY TV.

The entire student body is organized into a Student Forum which meets once a week. Its purpose is to regulate and to establish stu- dent customs at Miami, to express in definite form the undergraduate opinion on important issues, and to act in co-operation With the University Senate in 0b- taining a larger measure of self-government. For several years the F orum has successfully administered the Honor System, and has crystallized the sentiment of the undergraduates on other important matters. One feature of Miami life Which fosters a spirit of good fellowship among the men of the University is a series of three or four meetings held each year for men. The meetings are informal social gatherings at which college songs and speeches are special attractions. They often precede important athletic events, and do much to organize student enthusiasm. Many of the students have very limited means, and as a considerable portion earn their expenses While here. This has not interfered With the general recogni- tion given those students WhO have shown ability in the line of any student activity. The phases of college life are organized so far as possible With a View of securing the most capable students for each responsibilitin WVITH BIIABII NIEN.

The minutes read as follows: ti MIAM I UNIVERSITY ii Minutes Of the Union Literary Society. itFor the cultivation of the moral and intellectual faculties of the mind, we on the 14th day of December 1825, formed a literay society for our mutual good. ,, Another item of interest is the form of the questions for debate. Such ques- tions as, Resolved, iiThat the pen is mightier than the swrordii, iiThat poets are more beneficial than statesmenii, and similar topics abound. NIeetings were frequent. There were always two each week. One of these was on Saturday afternoon, and the other on Saturday evening. F ines, absence from meeting or deficiency in debate were invariably twelve-and-a-half cents. Many interesting motions were made. Benjamin Harrison, later to be President of the United States, was author of the following: tiBIr. Chairman, I move that every man who spits tobacco juice on the floor of this hall be fined six cents and that the money thus procured be saved for six months, at the end of which time a spit box be purchased for this society? By means of these records we are enabled to transplant Miamiis wealth of literary tradition into the realm of historic reality. Happily, the historic truths but prove that our cherished traditions are true. PAGE ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY-SEVEN MIAMII ' V I .

MCCORMICK ELMER KAESER THEODORE DOUGLASS PAGE ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY-SEVEN Vb r O D MIAMI ISIS The Platform Debate and Oratory ATER even than 1900, debating at BIiami attracted but slight interest. That condition has changed, however. Oratory and debate have ceased to be things for literary societies alone, and have attracted the keen inter- est and loyal support of every loyal Bliami man and woman. The for- ensic art has risen from a thing of minor import to a place Where it ranks high in both collegiate and intercollegiate activities. This year especially has greater interest been shown in debate than ever before. There have been more and better contests, larger and more enthusias- tic audiences. lliami was represented by two teams this year and each debated three times, two of Which were on foreign floors. Our aHirmative team debated in Dayton on BIareh 27'. Three days later they clashed With Butler College in Oxford, and on the 7th of April they again debated Cincinnati in Cincinnati. Our negative team met Cincinnati's affirmative in Hamilton on March 17, debated Wiabash College at Crawfordsville, Indiana, on the 30th, and met Cincinnnati once more in Oxford on April '7. BIiami is very democratic in the choosing of her teams. Every man in the Uni- versity is eligible to try out and is urged to do so. A question is assigned to the vol- unteers and after ample time is given for study these men compete in a preliminary debate before competent judges. F rom these contestants six speakers and four alternates are chosen to represent the University in the intercollegiate contests. BIiami does not engage in intercollegiate oratorical contests, but her trustees offer a prize of twenty-hve dollars each year to the winner of a local contest. This is also democratic in its nature. Any leIiami man may submit an oration not to exceed eighteen hundred words to a body of faculty judges. The owners of the six best manuscripts submitted, publicly compete before another body of judges. In this try-out delivery is judged as well as the style and contents of the oration. The Winner receives, a prize of twenty-five dollars. Victor Schmidt, of Trenton. Ohio, won the contest in 1916. Great interest is also shown at Miami in exteniporaneous speaking. Presi- dent Hughes annually donates a prize of five dollars to the best extemporaneous speaker. The contest is held in chapel, each contestant being given a subject about ten minutes before the time of speaking. The entire audience acts as judges. Summing it all up, lliami, famed for her eloquent sons in her early days, seems to be reviving the old time traditions, and in the days to come Will be famed for the men WhO take interest in her forensic opportunities of the present in debate, oratory, or extemporaneous speaking.

After a stormy night, during Which a ceaseless watch was kept, the cringing freshmen stole forth from their hiding places to find the glare of manyeslander-iilled posters gazing into their inner-most selves. Quick to anger, they rose to the situation and in a short time only a remnant of these bitter impeachments remained. The anger of the freshmen did not subside, but merely suffered a temporary relaxation during a ball game, coming back with ever renewed Vigor, and driving them on until the track and field meet were won, and the sophomores were ignomin- iously drenched, soaked, and disgruntled, by the stagnant waters of the Tal- lawanda.

PAGE ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-FOUR V. n MIAMI a 7' ISIS 4 r Athletics The Aim of Athletics at Miami T BIiami for the past four years athletics have been developed With a three-fold aim. First, for the physical development and training of the students. We believe that athletic games, Wisely selected for the individual, afford as fine exercises for physical development as gymnastics or any drill. Second,for the moral development of the students. To play his part in a game, to play his best, to play a gentlemank game, to develop the grace to be a good loser. and a modest winner; all this will go far to develop strong moral fiber in any one. Third, for the social development of the student. The associations With others in a game gives unusual insight into their characters; it gives each player the finest chance in the world to Win respect, confidence, and admiration of his fellows; it brings students of every type together, and accustoms them to meet each other on the fine democratic footing 0f the play-ground.

A better conditioned team than this years never represented Miami; this was Clearly shown by its endurance in every contest. True enough two defeats defaced a clean record, the one by Indiana was ex- pected perhaps, but that by Denison was unexpected, being not a disgrace, but a disappointment. Credit is due the team and the coach for Victories over Mount Union, Ohio Wesleyan, Ohio, and Cincinnati. Each man seemed to work harder this year than ever before, but unlooked for obstacles kept us from having a, state Championship team at Miami.

His ability lies in open play. Elonk is a true sport and a clean athelete; and in him Miami loses one of her very best. CARLOS BAER 1lTeddyh Baer, cap- tain-elect of the Bliami football machine of 1916, has made a name for himself as the most feared tackle in Ohio. Ted was brought up on football. Having lived near the campus of Old Bliami all his life, he has im- bibed her spirit and will lead us to a championship in 1916, we are sure. H OWARD FOSTER ROSS liBuddyl, Ross, for three years, has been our most con- sistent athletes; before spring is gone, he will have earned nine 1131's , a record to be proud of. 11Buddy has been shifted fron fullback to end and from end to fullback and delivered in each instance. In losing Ross, we lose as strong a man as has ever played on a Miami team. CARL PRESTON HERBERT llPresi, Herbert, the second of that combination, Ross and Herbert. A little end who has handled his position in a big style. x h Catching passes or blocking runners were fix, equally easy for Pres. He is another senior we are to lose, and whose loss will be heavily felt by the students as well as the players. RALPH THOMPSON LOWRY Ralph is a junior and has played his second year Of varsity football. He is not the fastest man on the team but he hits the line low and hard and can be depended upon for consistent gaining. When the suits are handed out next fall, we hope that he will be back in the line-up again. PAGE ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY-FOUR u mam u 7' b l9l6 4 Football JACKSON TITL'S BUFTERFIELD Wlaek Butterfield has made an unique rem'd in football having played three years without being out of any game all that time. tiJaekH is big and powerful and always will he remembered as one of the cleanest and hardest playing tackles we have ever had. Jack graduates in June. lVe will always remember his fighting nerve. SAM L'EL GRIFFITH ROGERS iiSam' Rogers commonly known as llLittle Sam., is known to BIiami's no opponents as iWVhitey the big right tackle. Sam is one of Docs innocent pets. He has earned his letter as a track man, too. When Sam graduates next J une, the team loses one of its mainstays 0n the field and the source of most of its amusement when off of it. WI LLAR U PA IfL ZIM M ERM AN liZim and Earley proved to be an impregnableemnbination at the guard positions. Zim is our hammer thrower as well as one of our Chubby linesmen. He has enough pep to put the fighting spirit into any two football teams. He is a junior and has another year to play. How much more he will do next year we cannot say, but that he will equal this year's performance we are more than sure. G UY BI'RDETTE EARLEY Burdette came to Miami from Jamestown, coming to play football and to study. He has done the former, whetE or not he has done the latter, and Will leave a year from next June. He stops the aerial attack of opposing teams as easily as he tackles runners. He has one more year to play, and we expect to see his name again on the All-Ohio eleven. PAGE ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY-FIVE JOHN EDWIN HULL Ed began to play football in Greenfield,l;0hio, and as captain and fullback of the high school team he was about the best of that city. Now he is the pivot 0f Miamiis tried and proved line, and as a snapper-back he has no equal in the state. With one more y e a r to play, Ed will surely make that position in the All-Ohio w h i C 11 he came so n e a r making this year. G UINN WHITEH CRST MATTERN itllattyii has played his second season at end. In break- ing up end runs, running down punts, and in taking passes llatty is one of the cleverest little ends we have ever seen perform. Blatty is a game fighter, and always plays his best and hardest. XVeive seen you taken out cold, Matty, but you are always ready for the next game. There isnt any doubt about next year being your best year. VIVIAN FAIRCHILD CRAWFORD ttChief'i, as we call Vivian Fairchild, is a much more suitable name for this line-plunging, end- running and punting halfback. Big Chief is the unanimous 'choice for left half-back in the All-Ohio eleven. Chief has earned his leter in baseball, and is of no mean ability in basketball and track. He will wear the Red and White one year more and we expect many things of him. EARL HANSBARGER ttDutchii is the smallest, nerviest and fastest open field runner on the team. Injuries have followed him until last fall, when he made good his ttM . Dutch is an ideal half back in the open style of play, though he is rather light for the more massive attack. He has one more season, so he too will show us his same some speed next season. PAGE ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY-SIX n MIAMI a V IQIG 4 r Football LEWI S OLIVER MCVAY Lewie 3130 started out to make an end posi- tion, but soon found himself as a halfback. He can pass and run, and with a years more experience should be one of the best players wearing the Red and White. He is the youngest man in Ohio collegiate football, and has two more years to make Sidney famous. EAR L HE NRY B LAIK tilted was one of the hardest fighters and workers 011 the team. He graduated from Steele High and made good as and end on the Freshman team of 1914. ttRed can run down puntsrand take passes with equal skill, and next year and the year after he will put the finishing touches to the fine work so well shown in this years playing. LESTER ALLEN C OWEN iiLesi, has made good in his freshman year and Doc Young credited him with a chance for the Varsity. His speed and quick work won for him his tch and the doctors expectations were realized. ttLesii will play for two more seasons, and should develop into a real back field man. DON VEASY FITZGERALD Don Vesy 0r Don Quixote eit makes no difference in foot- ball. Fitz defied the customs of Hamilton High School football players and came to Miami rather than Ohio State. Injuries have kept him out of the game to a certain extent, but when in condition to play Fit generaled the team and bucked the line in fine shape. Don will play two more years, so hereis to you, Fitz! PAGE ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY-SEVEN r O O MIAMI l9l6 Football F reshman Line-up DIENST ................... .Left End BICKIE ..................

F ull-bacl: w r U MIAMI 0 mm 4 r Football 1916 F ootball Prospects IAMI again established her claim to football honors last October when she duplicated her feat of the previous year and once more defeated BIt. Union, this time by the decisive score of 17 to 0. on the latte1 s field, before thousands of her supporters. The followers of Ohio football then realized that the Eliami team for two successive seasons would be a stronger contender for Championship honors. The loss of the game to Denison, played two weeks later under an unusual handicap, cost Miami a clear claim to the state Championship. However, a team that can play five Championship contests with the best teams in the state of Ohio on successive Saturdays and win four of them by decisive scores is certainly one to be watched. Only a very serious loss by graduation coupled with very poor incoming material could ruin such a, team. Surely the loss of Capt. Pierce, But- terfield, Ross, Herbert, Rogers, etc. is heavy and would spell ruin for Bliami were it not for the fact that these men are evidently going to be replaced by some from a squad of incoming players which has never been equaled here. Such old backfield men as Crawford, FitzGerald, BICVey, Hansbarger, Pruden, Lowry and Cowen, together with the new men, Burt, lchinnis, Munns, Kerst- ing, etc. make up a squad such as no coach at Bliami has ever had. Butterfieldis loss will not be felt asmueh in the line if Hull decides to return, for he will doubtless go to tackle and leave his place at center for Hale to care for. Blaik has been Herbertls understudy during all the present year and has the marks of a great end. BICKie and Dienst are two new men who are destined to gain fame on the ends of the line. If Hull should fail to return, Carl Perrone, it would seem, has the best chance to make the tackle position. He is big, powerful, and fast, and is destined to become a first class linesman. Shupp, first line sub for the past year, Mitten- dorf, and Leyshon, will supply plenty of able substitutes, or even regulars, if any of the others should fail us, for the heavy line positions. But after all no first class eleven can de developed from any football squad, however able the men are individually,without the aid of a capable coach. In Mr. Geo. Little, late of Cincinnati. University, we have a man famed all over the state for his good sportsmanship, high morals, and abilities as a coach. He comes to Biliami under the most favorable circumstances, and will, we believe, develop Miamfs greatest football team next fall. ARCHER EVERETT YOUNG PAGE ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY-NINE h r O D - MIAMI l ISIS Athletics Coach C. S, Roberts ARLY in January, Coach C. S. Roberts definitely announced that he did not intend to coach at Bliami, or any place for that matter, next year, his plans including the study of medicine exclusively. The football season was easily one of the best that Miami has ever had, defeating Cincinnati, W'esleyan, Mt. Union, and Ohio Universities. Every one connected with Miami, both students and alumni as well as her friends over the state,were proud of that li Big Red Team from down state ii and the man that coach- it to Victory. Although the baskeball season was not a howling success, it was not by any means a discredit to the University, since with only two experienced men, Coach Roberts succeded in building up a machine that was defeated only by some very close scores. It. is too early in the season to give definite information as to track, but pros- pects are bright for the continuing of the good work begun by Coach Howard F lack last year. Coach Roberts has made many a friend while here at Miami, not merely because of his coaching ability, but also on account of his Characteristic manner of making friends. Wle wish him well in his new undertaking. Coach George Little NDER the careful management of Rh. Wallace Roudebush, we have been able to announce that Mr. Little has decided to accept our offer, and will begin his work here at the opening of the fall term. Mr. Little needs no introduction to the alumni of Miami who are located in this section of the state. To the others let me say that we have yet to find a Miami student or a Bliami Alumnus, acquainted with Mr. Little, who does not believe that he is just the man for the place. 3h. Little is a coach and a gentleman, and will turn out this coming fall a real football team. A. E. YOUNG PAGE ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY D MIAMI 0 BIG r Basketball Varsity Basketball 191 6 . CAPTAIN JAY W. MINNICH PAGE ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY-ONE V1 7 U D. MIAMI t l9l6 Basketball Review of Season HE 1915-16 basketball season ended with a Victory over the University of Cincinnati. Even though the team won only three games of the twelve scheduled, the season was in no manner a failure. The games lost, we lost by only a few points in nearly every instance. This goes to Show that the team always played good basketball and made its Opponents work hard for their Victories, even though it did not win as many games as we would have liked for it to have won. At times the team suffered greatly on account of the inability of certain men to play, yet it never gave up, but played hard with the hopes of winning. Most everyone will agree that the Victory over Cincinnati on her own floor meant al- most in itself a successful season for our team, especially since this has been the first year in many that we have been able to defeat Cincinnati at Cincinnati. 69am, WM PAGE ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY-TVVO 1'8 a MIAMI a 7' 1916 4 r.

He was the mainstay of an offense, and has a keen knack of sizing up the opponents' tactics. This was Blinniehis last year of varsity basketball, and hIiami loses in him one Of her most consistent players. HARDIGG SEXTON Hardigg showed up very well in the inter-class and intra-mural games last year and it was predicted that he would make the varsity this year. True to these expectations, he has made good, being a most valuable addition to the team. As a guard he has a good eye for baskets and can run the floor or stand on the defensive against both short 01' tall men. MARION ELMER COULTER DIarion's ambition for years has been to play varsity basketball. This year he has had his first chance. As Sextonis team-mate in the guarding position. he can hardly be beaten. His ability at shooting baskets is equalled by his guard- ing capacities. His long shots and fast work will long be remembered. HOXVARD FOSTER ROSS Ross has just finished his last year on the varsity basketball team. He has played forward for three years. His versatility 0n the floor and the bracing influ- ence he gives the team make him a valuable man 011 any team. Hard work and plenty of snap have kept Howard going. We are sorry he wont be with us again next year. PAGE ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY-FOL'R D MIAMI D l9l6 r Baseball Varsity Baseball 1915 CAPTAIN EVERETT R. BOLLINGER PAGE ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY-FIVE ' G V. D MIAMI 1916 Baseball Review of Season 1915 HE baseball season of 1915 was probably the most successful that hliami has ever had. Of the fourteen games played but two were defeats and these incidentally were lost by one run in each case. During the spring vacation trip Kentucky State won 7 to 6, while 31ia1ni, with Landrey in the box, came back the next day and beat the XVildcats Q to 1. The other defeat was at the hands of Ohio University later in the season for the state Championship. The score was 1 to 0. Two of six games were lost on trips, while every home contest was a Victory. The team itself was composed in a great part of experienced men. Landrey was almost invincible in the box and Pierce was a most capable second Choice. With the exception of Crawford at third, the infield of 1914 remained intact. In the outheld hIattern and 1Vonsetler were new additions. In every contest the team outhit the opponents and suceeded in taking several shut-out Victories. Cartwright, Crist, and Landrey have been lost to the team for the 1916 season, but the other veterans remain. R. C.

DAVIES PAGE ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY-- INE PAGE TXVO HUNDRED ta 0 MIAm o r t l9l6 Track 1 Review of Season HE track season of 1915 was the most successful one since the days of iTCaph Stone. Not only was the season a successful one from the stand- point of the number of meets won, but from the standpoint of the number of men competing for the team and the different places offered in track and field athletics. During the Winter months, the squad trained indoors, and under the very efficient coaching of Howard Flack, was able to place several men in different events of several open indoor meets in Cincinnati. This gave an opportunity for those who had never been under fire to gain a considerable amount of exper- ience, and as a result of this indoor training and the experience gained throughout these Open meets, the team was able to defeat Ohio W'esleyan in the nrst outdoor dual meet 0f the season. In a few weeks after the W'esleyan meet, the team jour- neyed t0 Granville, where it administered a very decisive defeat to Denison,s track team. The following Saturday was an off day and the team rested, while high school men from all over Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana contested in a tri-state inter-seholastic and championship meet. The team then suffered a set-baek at the hands of the University Of Cincinnati, but was able to come back, and made a very creditable showing at the Ohio Inter-collegiate BIeet at Columbus, Ohio. 011 the whole the season was a most successful one and the credit for this good work is due Coach Flack who, by hard work and a complete knowledge of track and field athletics, was able to bring together a winning combination out of a class of inexperienced men.

V D MIAMI 0 BIG 4 r Intra-BIural Intra-Mural Contests DECADE ago the object of each department of the University was to train at least one man to achieve nation-wide reputation in the subjects taught by the professors of that department. The English depart- ment concentrated its efforts upon the students best adapted to that line of work in the hope of turning out one great author. The aim of the Public Speaking department was one great orator; that of the Scononiics department, a millionaire; that of the Chemistry department, one expert Chemist. thile they often succeeded in their aims, the result was that the college sent out too many men from its doors unable to write a business letter free from bad dic- tion and misspelled words, Inen unable to express themselves before an audience, men unable to make a careful analysis of business conditions. Today the aims of these departments are radically different. T hey still desire to turn out experts, but they are still more desirous of turning our every student enrolled in the course with a practical knowledge of the subject. Although somewhat delayed, we may trace the same evolution recently in the development of college athletics. lVe no longer concentrate our entire at- tention upon our Varsity squads, but are attempting to get every Miami man out for some form of exercise. It may be that we will have less star athletes, but we are aiming to send out every Miami man from this institution with a sound and well-deveIOped body. Such is the aim of the Department of Physical Education in arranging intra-mural contests. Each year we are making progress in organizing and arranging these contests, and this year we have succeeded in getting 98a? of all Miami Men interested in some form of athletic activity. But while we have been quite successful, condi- tions are far from ideal. If we are to push farther this idea of athletics for every man, we find that the intra-mural system requires a larger budget and more ex- tensive equipment. lVe find that there are two factors to be considered: first, that 9070 of the students want to play in the games; second, that in organizing them, their affiliations and associations must be recognized. XVe are unable to accommodate all the students desiring to play because of an unsufficient number of tennis courts, baseball diamonds, and gridirons. We are handicapped in basket- ball, indoor track, and indoor baseball by lack of floor space in the gymnasium, and in football by lack of football shoes and football jerseys for intra-mural players. A. D. BROWNE PAGE TtVO HUNDRED AND THREE PAGE TWO HUNDRED AND FOUR VI O r D - MIAMI t ISIS Intra-Mural Intra-Mural Baseball The intra-mural baseball championship was won by the Sigma Chis. How- ever, in commenting upon the baseball race, mention should he made of the In- dependents and the Alpha Delta Sigmas. The Independents started With the best team in the league and never until the final game With the Sigs were they out of the race. They won their first four games With ease, but on account of heavy drains on their material by the fraternities, were forced to drOp their fifth game to the Phi Alpha Psis. Just at this point Harry Kumler left the Varsity and kept them in the race, until that last memorable game. The Delta Sigs started With a poor team, but during the course of the season they were able to deveIOpe inside baseball to such an extent that they won their last game from the champion Sigs.

Physi 111 development must go hand in hand with mental development in order that we may have a sound mind in a sound body. In their choice of amusements many girls are inclined to avoid strenu- uous exercises. Their interest is games centers in seeing others play. It is the policy of our department to revolutionize this View and get just as many girls as possible to take an active part in all games and sports Offered. Active plays and games and outdoor recreations tend to increase alertness and improve the physique. Such exercises are popula' among those who have had an opportunity to know them. It is an honor to be Chosen a member of a class team in tennis, hockey. base- ball 01' basketball. Every girl has a chance to make one or more Of these teams. Inter-Class, inter-organization, and inter-dorinitory contests are scheduled. Just as competition is the life of trade, s0 competition in athletics gives zest and spirit. Our usual fine Open fall afforded Opportunity for a tennis and hockey season lasting almost until Thanksgiving. A splendid weather-proof and padlocked Chest for the hockey sticks was placed on the girls field. BIany girls have come ont for basketball. 1Ve have dispensed with iiprae- tice games? Every team has its name: Olympians, Corinthians, Spartans, Athenians, Indians, Pirates and a list Of others. Every color in the rainbow is pressed into service. The annual inter-dormitory game between Bishop and Hepburn Halls is the quintessence of rivalry. Bishop was Victorious in 1911 and Hepburn Hall in 1915. C6 The requirements to be met for winning an M sweater have been stiffened considerably. The Old rules were carefully revised by the Girls Athletic Board. As a fitting Close to the formal indoor class-work the annual gymnastic demon- stration was given on Saturday evening, March 25. The program consisted of military, calisthenic, bar ball and Indian Club drills; folk and aesthetic dancing; and games. This is the annual Open night when all interested are cordially in- vited to attend. The services rendered by F lorence 1Vasser1nan, as assistant, and Elma Tucker, as pianist, have been valuable.

For a number of years the women at Miami have been assuming an in- creasing Share in the duties and responsibilities of student life. It was With the View of giving some recognition for these services that a group of girls of the present senior class formed the secret society, the Pleiade. The word Pleiade suggests a body of seven illustrious persons. The seven seniors Who have been most prominent in student activities are the Charter members.

We Will go through the back campus; so you can see the squirrel house and get a glimpse of the Retreat in the distance and then we will come up High Street and turn down Campus Avenue. We will have to do a lot of walking. as the taxi is out of order. Anyway you want to get used to the scenic values of the place right at the start. You will appreciate the back campus more on winter afternoons when you informally make the acquaintance of the Western girls. Twilight comes here at three oiclock in November. Well, yes, the summer school students enjoy it too, but then that stuff is more lowbrow, that is, with some few exceptions. If you ever have to come to summer school and expect to enjoy yourself, get next to the exceptionsii the first thing. Yes, the retreat is good looking. Oxford College used to hang out there before it went on the rocks. No, of course it wasnt the Retreat then. Some of the faculty may have been nutty, perhaps. Yes, it was built for girls, that is why it has a bell tower. Go on, now-I don,t pretend to be a wit. There was a Sociology prof I knew who used to brighten up his speeches with remarks of about that caliber. I was in one of his classes and sort of picked it up by association. There are some swell nuts at the Retreat now. The son of the president of the Ideal Automatic Peanut Cracker Company was here last year. He got the willies from too many Camels. Yepethatk the athletic field. Best in the sta.te-you can look it over some time. nTake a look at the magnificent brick edifice up here. That is THE SIGMA CHI HOUSE T hat is where the Alpha Chapter of that glorious fraternity eats, sleeps, practices dramatics, and enter- tains the women. The Sigs are the most consistent honest-to-God fussers in school. Staley, Van Ausdell, and Joe Neff are Sigs. Donit ever try to outfuss one of these Sigma Chi experts. Fussing is a vocation with them, not an avoca- tion. Years ago the Sigs used to be independent and go to Oxford College every NIonday afternoon. The quaes- tor or scribe or whatever they call their secretary used to call the roll in the sun parlor and fine the absent brothers. Rothwell abolished this custom when he came to school. You see, the co-eds vote. Roger found that out and now he makes the Sigs fuss the co-eds too. The Sigs have two men who donit fuss, Herbert and Thompson. They are cynics and annoy the other brothers. Jo W'on- settler is a Sig, but you can never see him around. I guess he thinks there isnt anybody there who has brains enough to talk to him. iiYou like the house? Itis out here! It was presented to them by the N ational F raternity. You see the Sigs were founded here. Way back in 1855, the Dekes had some intercine trouble, or Whatever you want to call it; so some of the brothers told the others about their faults rather candidly and then went up town to a room over Adamsi Drug store and founded Sigma Chi. That,s the way the story goes, at least. No, I dont know what style of architecture it is. It looks like Ptomaine. I took Greek six and learned about that. PAGE TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTYeSIX t. o MIAMI a 7 mm 4 Mllhis ascetic looking mansion is THE DELTA KAPPA EPSILON HOUSE Did you ever hear of Commodore Peary? He is a Deke. He put their flag at the North Pole. Ask Bill Sexton to tell you about it, if the Dekes should happen to rush you. Sort of irony of fate for them to be so near the Sigs, isnit it? The Delta US are going to build between them in 194-0, but that won't relieve the situation to any great extent. B. S. Bartlow told me the architecture was eighteenth century German. Yes, B. S. is a Deke. Most great Miami men are Dekes-Prexy Hughes, Sam Brandenburg, Prof. Finch and Paul Zimmerman-all Dekes. The Dekes are most always profuse. If you were a girl, you could get any kind of a Deke you wanted-tall, short, fat, thin, ignorant, studious, athletic, talk- ative, or quiet. The Dekes win lots of athletic contests and other things, because they all get out and go after Dixrirkmnxnv mum. omen 0m them as hard as they can. They are activity sharks and they discover a. young manls athletic abilities. Take Burdette Earley, for instance. Last year there was a Deke named Finley. He was a vest pocket edition of Mark Hanna, Senator Lorimer and George B. Cox. Hinkle and Piggy Gard are trying to be like him. The girls think Piggy will succeed. Harley Brown is the only married Deke we know about. However, they don,t plant their pins; so there may be others who havenlt money for a solitaire like the one.Harley bought. I ' ' . X ' 1'34 ; h s' inn? 3 I n...-.-i.'5.'. rum! 2 The house next door is THE PHI DELTA THETA HOUSE That is where the Phi Delts smoke and hold philosophical discussions. Naw, they,re not high-brows. I was just being sarcastic. N otice the architecture here. The house is modeled after the Alamo. The Phi Delts have defended it just as bravely as Davy Crockett defended the Alamo, too. Once the chapter was full of soicety-mad plutocrats. Those were the days! The boys lived on their rep for a while, but now they do things of another sort. Ed Hull is a Phi Delt. They didnit know he was going to be suchaprom- inent athlete when he was a frshman. Alphonsus Fox is a Phi Delt too. He is going to be an efficiency expert. Barton is going to get married. The Phi Delt Alumni control all the vil- lage small change receptacles and some of the brothers show their loy- alty by loafing in relays on West High Street. I wish I could tell you more about some of the boys here. Theyire a mighty agreeable bunch and are mighty hospitable. We are on Campus Avenue now. There are some beautiful dwellings here. PAGE TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY-SEVEN V D O MIAMI l9l6 ttThat brick house with the damp aspect is THE PHI ALPHA PSI HOUSE I don,t know the style of architecture. I don,t think it has any, to tell the truth. The Phi Alpha. Psis have designs on an Alpha Delta Phi charter. Dontt let em hang any of that stuff over on you, though. They have a chapter band and a full orchestra to make a noise for themselves. They perform every . Sunday afternoon. Most of the ac- IQgiiHiai'ffig tive members of Tri Delta are Phi 4': 43,23; .5 Alpha Psi patronesses. Do you know , t , , Tom Law? Yes-he is a Phi Alpha Psi. The Phi Alpha Psis are athletic. Witness Pruden and Hansbarger. They have some likely freshmen too. George Stutsman, Dearbaugh, Doles, Gillette, and a lot of other rare tropical plants live here. When the boys get tired of George Stuts- man,s line, they throw him out of doors and he wanders around till he finds Marc Goldman or George Carver. T h e y appreciate him. Harlan Schwab W a s the m o s t phenomenal Phi Alpha Psi ever seen. He has graduated too. a o itThis yellow looking house is not an abandoned stable. It is THE DELTA UPSILON HOUSE David Swing built it in 1850. He was a Scotch man and watched the pennies. The house has not suffered much improvement since, although the boys have had lots of heart-to-heart talks With their landlady. The Delta U,s are always get- ting into trouble. They are misunderstood, so they say. Years ago they had a would- be poet named Newbold and they have been trying to be temperamental ever since. Bob Crandall has the best temperament. He lives on meat and sugar-bread and pre- tends to understand Schopenhauer. He and Stuart Lowe are the champion pessi- mists in school. There used to be a Delta U pin planted every spring, but that hasntt happened lately. The Delta Us and the co-eds are mutually mistrustful. Every time a co-ed passes a Delta U, she regards him curiously, and if you are close enough, you can hear the object of her curiosity mutter something about burlap. Lots of Delta U,s attempt to be literaryeMarc Goldman even pulls the universal erudition stuff. Crock Armstrong is a Delta U and has flunked English I, twice; so you see there are some exceptions. Some of the boys try to be Bohemians, but Cowen and Jimmy Moore do not. Back in the old days, the brothers used to be scholarship sharks, but now they are really intellectual and dont care about grades. PAGE TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY-EIGHT VT 0 NIANI :1 7' l9l6 4 r Let us turn down Spring Street here. The yellow brick house on the next corner is THE OMEGA PSI RHO HOUSE It is the hanging out place of a number of ambitiousboys who have been known to refer to themselves as our frat. They have among their number a lot of track men and Y. M. C. A. magnates. This is the residence of T ommy F oulkes and Everett Bollinger. These men are religious. However, some of the boys are religious and Gordon Creecraft is a philosopher. You can see him philosophizing in the barber shop most any time. You ought to hear him orate on the futility of en- deavor. F red Climer lives here. He is a politician and a journalist. Also he is one of Doctor Toddis racehorses. The Omegas are great lovers. They like to go to Oxford College. They do most of the work that the Sigs and Delta U,s used to do there. Mully Clark and Hock Davis are real lovers-just like the men who write to Beatrice F airfax and Laura Jean Libbey and sign themselves iiLeoniC E. Turner Stump lives here. He is a better orator than Demosthenes and a better lover than Dante. Some day the Omegas are going to be Delta Taus and every time there is a Varsity game, they kidnap the members of that fraternity on the Visiting team and give them chicken to eat and show them the town. Sometimes the Omegas give serenades and then the peaceful villagers wish to kick those who told them Oxford was a nice town to live in. But, as I said before, the Omegas are ambitious. iiNow we will have to walk a few squares without seeing anything worth noticing. We will soon arrive at the next object of interest. Look yonder! That brown-green house on the corner of Main and Beech Streets is THE BETA THETA PI HOUSE Euphonious thing, isn,t it? That is Where Alpha of Beta Theta Pi keeps its attitude. Don F itzgerald is the best attituder of them all. Down at the Teachers, College they talk about another kind of at- titude, but the Tri Sigs think of the Beta kind all through the lectures. With the attitude goes a certain walk which is a cross between that of a landsman on shipboard in a storm and of a tired business man on his way home after a bit of nocturnal recreation. Beckel has it correctly and Schnitz Schneider also does it very well indeed. He shows what three years practise will do for a man. When the Betas like a woman they annex her. The process is beau- tifully simple-just putting up a iiSoldi, sign on a vacant lot. How- ever, the Alpha Chapter is not re- sponsible for all the Beta pins in Oxford. The Alpha boys are con- oisseurs of the sex, if nothing else. As a matter of fact they are some- thing else, namely, athletes. The . Dekes have been bothering them lately-sort of blasting at the Beta Rock of Ages, as 1t were. You will like the Betas if they rush you-unless Crawford tries to sing iiThe Loving Cup,, and Monk PAGE TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY-NINE PAGE TWO HUNDRED AND SIXTY i o MIAMI l9l6 D r Pierce feels it his duty to be funny. If you want a composite picture of the Betas, take note of Becker walk, Jawn Whitlockis gash, and Fitz,s attitude. Therein lies the quintessence of Betaism. Lets stroll on a little way, I want to show you a few more places. That brick house there on the west side of Beech street is THE PHI KAPPA TAU HOUSE These gentlemen were formerly the Alpha Chapter of the Phrenocon As- sociation. Most of the long distance runners live here, probably because it is a long way from the campus and they can practise on the way to their seven-thirtys. Snakes is a Phi Kappa. He is a photographer, Humorist, and last of the Pseudo- Roughnecks. Carl Bogart is captain of the Phi Kappas because he is the best runner. Before the A. D. S. arrived, the Phi Kappas were gentle- men and scholars. N 0w they are more human. There was once a chemistry tradition in Phi Kappa Tau. It is chiefly tradition now, with the exception of Bob Edmiston. iWVell, lets go shoot a game. There is one house I havenit shown you. It is THE ALPHA DELTA SIGMA HOUSE It is out in the suburbs somewhere and I am afraid I would lose my way. It is the home of the honorary ecclesiastical fraternity. Pearl Gast is the most ecclesiastical of the Alpha Delta Sigmas since J ulian Love graduated. Doctor Upham has officially recognized the Alpha Delts as the only real ii gentlemen and schol- ars. ,i This happened on the occa- sion of the first presentation of the scholarship cup to this bunch of in- dustrious boys. The presentation has become an annual affair. As long as they have a bunch of en- thusiastic young fellows like Courtney Allen, Victor Schmidt, and J 0e Kneisley. Harold Hoffman is an Alpha Delt and a poet. He wooes the sacred muse and doesn,t associate with the vulgar rhymsters who hang around the Student Oche. Some years ago the Alpha Delta Sigmas were the Adelphic Association, but that was While Dr. Fink was still their guiding genius and before they got McCormick. In those days the boys didn,t smoke and had prayers morning resent being called Adelphicsfi and evening. Since then they have degenerated and u. o mam a 7' l9l6 4 r Peevish Pullings of a Potted Palm They told me, IIYou Will get just as much out of a thing as you put in it?

I have found that ninety per cent of the men and ninety-five per cent of the women around here think a man WhO likes poetry is a species of fool. I have met Doctor Fink and Pearl Gast. ItlrIany a man Who is a live Wire in his own organization carries a mighty small current on the University switchboard? What happens around here When a student springs a joke Which has a classi- cal or literary allusion in it. His hearers laughebut not at the joke. Seriousness is a disagreeable attribute in most cases. When things are sup- posed to be serious, you must reverence them. If you do not, the men call you a fool and the co-eds say you are horrid. Go to some of the meetings of the Com- mercial Club, attend a Y . M. C. A. Pep BIeeting, watch the Student F orum pass a fool resolution, go to an expurgated Varsity Dance or to an Oxford College re- ception: consider these things objectivelyethen you Will know What I mean. lIaybe. Nietzsche was raving about the institutions within the state. He said, IIThey vomit bile and call it newspaper. i, What would he have called the things that fraternities say about one another? I have spent the greater portion of four years in this glorious co-educational institution. I have seen that most women shed culture like a duckis back sheds water. Every time a co-ed prances into the library and transforms an atmos- p'here of study into that of a cosmetic shop, my instinct of chivalry takes a vaca- tion. I have to keep out of the library if I want my instinct to be with me more than twenty-four hours at a time. Snakes Moore once wrote a near-epigram that was pretty good. iiThere are two kinds of professors-those that work to do good, and those that work to hold their jobsf, PAGE TWO HUNDRED AND SIXTY-ONE r C VT 0 MIAMI l9l6 A Trip Through Bishop Hall ADIES and gentlemen: Get a fresh grip on your chewing gum, hold your hats and prepare yourselves for the unfolding of the mysteries of the House of a Thousand Candles, that den of the fair sex known as Bishop Hall. Perhaps you have heard dread cries, still-born giggles, shrieks, imprecations, snores, and various other noises emanating from its depths at ungodly hours of the night. You may have wondered and feared; proably cold chills ran up and down your spinal column; so if you have a heart of iron and nerves of steel, grit your teeth and enter With me.

Probably it was influence of environment. Donit waste your sym- pathy. She likes to act that way. Listen to the dulcet strains beneath Lady Reyendalis window. Some Betas are singing to her. The fair recipient leans from her Window from time to time. and murmurs in her resonant basso, ttOh ma Chere, je yous aime, je yos adore! Oh, mon couer, oh bouillon dioignon, oh etceteraW We Will now pause before the door of the room belonging to two of the most physically insignificant members of the co-ed body.

They are very capable however, Fay is particularly capable. She knows heaps and heaps. If you are in need of advice, go to her. She will probably give it to you anyhow. Hark! The door bell rings. Sounds of preparation within-the heavy thud of talcum powder on a velvet Cheek! The door flies open. Fugit Miss Perry. She is met in the lower hall by a lank cavalier in a Latonia dress-suit of ill-suppressed plaid and a shreiking green tie. He has a near-cynical expression and wears an expression like the morning aftereso different from his childish beauty. No, sir, I dont know What, she sees in him. The loving leviathans pass into the music room, Which they Will accupy till dinner-time. Miss Allen is now tearing madly about the room, seemingly laboring under great excitement, holding in each hand a picture of thtt and Jeff. Let us pass on. PAGE TWO HUNDRED AND SIXTY-TVVO BIG 4 r Ssh! Listen! From behind this door come yells of appreciative ecstasy, sympathetic groans, giggles, and other sounds not classified as such.

Also an odor of fudge. The Trovillos are at work. Donit try to get in, it is absolutely useless. We will now ascend. Tread reverently here, ladies and gentlemen: Behind yonder door crouches the House Chairman, note book and pencil in hand and ear to the keyhole. She is waiting for an opportunity to inscribe the name of some sinful sister in her Books of Jobs. They say that the second floor is haunted by a red-pigtailed ghost. Gladysis cares wont let her sleep and she paces tirelessly up and down, up and down, waiting, waiting, waitingeAha! A sound is heard.

An expression of Chagrin and hope-deferred spreads over the features of the Chairman. It is impossible to censor a. lady for an act of this sort. And now a strange procession passes. Several women in modish kimonos pass sedately by us. Do not be alarmed. These strange creatures are the den- izens returning from their nightly trip to the fountain. This misanthropie bunch of sour grapes originated the idea of having a barnyard Chorus on :1 midnight in January. They are a very original bunch. Let us pause before this room. A delicate odor of formaldehyde and hydrogen sulfide is wafted to our nostrils. C ries of distress and stem commands issue forth, some What in this wise; iiOw-oooV' mNow you arerft hurt a bit. Shut up and you,ll feel better? A pale, hollow-eyed sufferer staggers weakly out of the door, bearing in her hand a box of White pills labelled iiSix every hour. ' Ladies and gentlemen: A few words in conclusion and our trip is at an end. It is unsafe for 11s to ascend to the third floor. TVhitey and Else, the onion-epicures live up there. The neighborhood is very unsavory and the weaker members of the party are likely to be overcome by the atmospheric conditions. There is very little to be seen there that would be interesting or instructive. Let us descend to the first floor and disperse. The readers are getting tired of this thing.

MINUTES OF LAST MEETING The president called the meeting to order in his usual pleasing manner. He then proceeded to open the meeting by explaining how he accounted for his success this season. He attributed most of his success to his athletic fame and his ability to make that last dance unforgetable. He gave the AAA dance as an example and said that he felt that he had his next years bid cinched. Calderwood and Craver thought that their success was due to their unusual position of being faculty men and unmarried. Chaperons must be taken care of, you know. Most of the other brothers gave similar excuses except J ohn Wimmer who was unable to account for his success in any way. After some discussion the club came to a similar conclusion.

I studied medicine And my grave demeanor, Together with a little knowledge Gained me a good practice. But I gave Paul Zimmerman a dose of arsenic, Thinking it was castor oil. BEN CLAYPOOL They always linked my name with BIarc Goldmans When they printed a bum joke in the II Student. II That was embarassing to both of us. F unny thing, 31am finally married One of my boyhood sweethearts. I was tending bar in my fathefs hotel at that time, And I went on a spree to celebrate his wedding- Of course I was a bit careleSSe And I didtft see or hear the street car That put an end to me. pAGE TWO HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-FOUR I regretted this Because we had been good friends.

Ninety feet to the ground And nothing but a pile of bricks To break my fall! MARC GOLDMAN Everybody said I was a foole Sometimes I even thought so myself. However, I managed to get most of the things I went after. I managed to abolish co-education in BIiamie And the barbaric culture at B'Iiami. In the case of my Wifew It was she who did the going after, not I- I never could resist a woman. Oh welleShe was a good woman. I went to a reception and forgot to put on a tie, And, as a result, I died of embarrassment. PAGE TXYO HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-FIVE D MIAMI l9l6 o r GUINN MATTERN My life was like a bowl of soup Too highly seasoned. I married and began practising law, But my wife deserted me And afterward married a second rate author named Miller, Whom she had loved in her girlhood. Then I took down my shingle And went to Ecuador, k Where I hunted boa-constrictors for two years. Then I set out for Australia; But the boat was wrecked And I landed on a cannibal island. The natives made me king because I was fatter than SNAKES MOORE 31y humor was the death of me. In college everyone laughed at what I said and did, And afterwards I used to amuse the yokels In St. hIarys XVith my drolleries, One fourth of July I went to Columbus And met up with a bunch of fellows in a cafe. I said: iIVVhy is a tin can on the end of a dogis tail like death?,, IWVhyPI, said some one. iiBecause it is bound to happen,i I answered. T hen some one hit me in the temple IVith a billiard ball. I should have said; IIBecause its bound to occur. ,i Then they would have understood. ELSE HUDSON I tried missionary work in China. It got on my nerves; So when a young mandarin proposed to me, I accepted him And lived happily with him Until I starved to death. PAGE TWO HUNDRED AND SEVENTSPSIX Any of them. I had seventy wives, Which caused me less trouble than the one Iid lost. After some years I escaped and made my way to Singapore And spent the next ten years Running a soda fountain in Thibet. Then I wandered westward With a Bhutanese tribe of gypsies. At last in Italy I married a countess Who thought me handsome and rich, But I was only handsome. She poisoned me When she found this was so. MARIE WELLER lVIy fatal beauty involed me In numerous adventures of the decidely amorous varlety. I got my start in Miami University Playing at love with Dekes and Phi Delts. Afterward I went to St. Petersburg And earned a place in the Imperial Bal- lete Life really began for me then. I had three ambassadors, a general, An ex-vodka merchant, and a beer taster, All wanting to marry me. They were generous but boresome, So I skipped to Vienna. T here the Emperor took a liking to me. This was a bit embarrassing As you can not kid emperors as you can mere nobility. Hence I migrated, And after several years of wandering, I came again to the old town of Oxford, Where I married Marc Goldman. He had prospered in journalistic nelds And was editor of the Oxford Forum. iiGrandama Goldmanii they called me- I died of old age. THE SHEET VOUNG THING. A Sum OF Spmue. Tm. NUDE 0g SmNEY.

But I married a grass widow, She was a flame of my boyhood and stung me, But she left her husband on my account anyhow. She nagged me half to death And killed what little rudimentary genius I may have possessed. I suppose she was disappointed in me- She was romantic And I was inordinately fond of onions- And she thought me artistic. I often envied her first husband IVho died somewhere in South America. Pshaw ! Her incessant nagging Drove me to drink And then I became a snow-sniffer. No man can last long at that game. W. PAUL ZIMMERMAN I had a benevolent uncle Who gave me a thousand dollars when I graduated. I borrowed another thousand dollars from Sam Rogers And purchased a modest cafe. Business was good and I prospered. I married and waxed fat, Weighing three hundred and ten pounds In my bartendefs costume. I was feeling badly one day- T here had been a party Given by the Improved Order of Red Men The night before- I sent for Doctor Edwin Hull Who was an old friend of mine. The damn fool gave me arsenic! PAGE TWO HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-EIGHT MIAMI r O RAYMOND WAGNER Live was a joyous affaire- I sang in the Howald on Saturday nights And in the Methodist Church on Sundays. While in Miami University I was fed at the University Commons With the rest of the live stock. Shortly after graduation I died of acute gastritis. MAX DICE You little thoughtre You of my brothers who said I had the itch, And laughed at me bacause I had St. Vitus Dancee You little thought That there was anything in my head Except the hair Which came pushing through at intervals. But when I found A general method for solving equations of the fifth degree, And built a wireless telephone to Mars, And carried the Cubist ideals in to the art of bricklaying, And proved that Peary was a liar And never discovered the North Pole; And then I wrote an American opera- You flocked around me, Reviving what you called the dear old friendships. But I swallowed my hatred of you And let you bask in the warmth of my genius Along with the rest of the bootlickers. I was glad when Death claimed me, For I was growing weary of fame.

And those I hit Not lightly Called me Pharisee And said I held myself As not like other men.

Two years later, in a raid on Berlin, My machine was wrecked And I was perished. But I dropped a bomb on the roof of the Imperial Palace, That killed the Kaiser, the Crown Prince, Four generals, and the cook. Harmless! ! 3 !

I remember those things- Particularly the forceful way in Which they were told me By Doctor YoungePoor Doc! He never understood my restless temperament. After leaving college I drifted southward And discovered a radium mine near hIcGonigles Of course that made me secure from want. I did numerous good works with my money'e I remember I loaned Paul Zimmerman a thousand dollars So he could buy a cafe. I built a girls gymnasium at DIiami, Pensioned Doc Todd, And sent a set of A B C blocks to Fritz Pruden Who was in Germany at the time. I was fooling around in my mine one day When the whole gallery caved ine They dug me out ten days later, But it was too late to do any good. Sorority Scandal ! itOh! The Tri Delts tell me how strong they are nationally! Show me the moon and stars at night and say they stand for secrets. Then they take me on a ride and come back in the moonlight. And I like them, but the Delta Zetas have sung me their wonderful song about a lamp in front of Armsteads, fireplace and then told me how in a very few days here they had learned to love me With that wonderful Sisters, love. But the Chi Omegas, too, are just dandy. They seem to be such good scouts and they know such good stories; but if I go Chi Omega, I can,t be a Kappa Tau Sigma and someone said that they Will be Pi Phi some day, and then they can turn up their noses at AZ, X9, and AAA, toof, tEd.
