We have attempted to place before you a few of the more significant events, the incidents and some of the people who have assisted in making the year of 1916-17 the most successful year in the history of the college. We relinquish this chronicle of the year’s happenings into your hands and hope the various changes and new features introduced to tone up the book will meet with your approval.

Elliott elected Chancellor of the University of Montana; 1915. Did you see the Juniors working. In the heat on the mountain side? Did you see a single one shirking? Xo. the task was his greatest pride. They were planting a token of homage In the earth on that mountain high: A token of love for their college. The sign of a lasting tie. So they toiled from morning till night. Their bodies were weary and aching. But there in the last rays of twilight Shone the M, the M of their making. Their spirits arose at the sight Of the tribute that thus came to be. And echoing far in the night They sang praises to M. S. C. History of the M. Early in the fall of 1915 some members of the present Junior class conceived the idea of constructing a huge M on some adjacent mountainside within full sight of the college and town. The purpose of this undertaking was two-fold: first, to leave the college an enduring monument to the loyalty of the class of 1918. and second, to perpetuate the name of the class of '18 and to set an example of achievement to the classes in years to come. The plan was brought up in class meeting and the entire class at once became enthusiastic and straightway set about making the necessary preparations. A preliminary survey revealed the fact that the most available site for the M was on Old Baldy on the southwest slope just above the Fish Hatchery, but in plain sight of the town and the surrounding country. This was five miles from town, but possessed many natural advantages, and it was therefore accepted. The committee of five appointed to lay out the letter toiled up the steep slope one morning with transit and tape and after taking a few sights and engaging in much calculating and discussion they set the stakes for the outlines of the letter. A week later the Sophomores were granted a holiday and nearly sixty boys made the trip to the Fish Hatchery on bicycles, buggies and automobiles. From six-thirty in the morning until sunset they toiled without ceasing. Each man busied himself with carrying the slabs of stone which lay thick on the mountainside, and placed them on the M. The outlines as marked by stakes set by the survey party were first filled in with the larger rocks and then material of all sizes was dumped inside to fill in the letter. The enormous amount of material required exhausted the easily available material and in the afternoon lines were formed and the rock passed from hand to hand from the ledges to the letter. The task was not without its amusing features and dangers, for. owing to the steepness of the slope, the rocks had to be placed with care, for if a large rock was dropped the chances were two to one it would start down the mountainside with ever-increasing velocity, taking fifty to a hundred feet at a bound. Late in the afternoon automobiles brought out the girls of the class, who had been laboring all the morning with no less spirit than their classmates on the hill, to prepare the evening meal for the toilers. The entire class gathered around a big bonfire in one of the picnic groves of Bridger Canyon and feasted and frolicked several hours before returning to the city. Last spring the class decided to complete the letter, and May 8th saw the Sophs staggering up the hill loaded with pails of water, lime and other equipment. The morning was spent in filling in the letter with rock, and tlie litters constructed for the purpose proved an invaluable aid in carrying small rock. As soon as a section of the letter was completed the whitewash gang took possession and proceeded to lay on a thick coat of substantial white with a spray pump, while a crew carried water up the hill to mix the whitewash. 1'he completion of the M was followed by another picnic in the canyon and about fifty of the class returned to town on Taylor’s truck. It has now become an established custom for the Freshman class to repair and whitewash the letter every fall. The M is constructed entirely of limestone rocks and boulders carried by hand from the surrounding mountainside and laid in position. 1'he size of the letter cannot be conceived without an actual visit to the mountainside. The U at the University of Utah was reputed to be the largest in the world at the time of its completion, measuring one hundred feet square. The M far outstrips these dimensions, being two hundred and forty feet high by one hundred feet across the legs, with blocks measuring forty by ninety-six feet. The success of so herculean a task rests entirely with the loyalty and industry of the entire class. May the M stand long as a symbol of our loyalty to Montana State and a reminder of what a united class can accomplish. Faculty JAMES M. HAMILTON, M.S.

In addition to presiding o er class meetings, he toots a horn in the band, defends the honor of the class in tennis and makes grades in engineering. He is also the unimpeachable gatherer of absence re-ports and a member 01 the fussera club. Forty seven Junior Class Elmer Arxesox Olio of the strong winds for which Bigtimber is famous blew Elmer our way and M. S. C. gained another good Aggie student. Elmer does not spend his time talking—in fact, he is generally about as loquacious as the Sphinx at midnight—but he exercises his ability in pulling long grades from the profs, and frosh thru the frog-pond. Harriet Arxesox A little branch of Big Timber quite able to stand alone. “Mattie.” like her brother, believes that silence is golden, but is generous with her smiles, and eloquent smiles they are. too. Not being inclined to be frivolous. Hattie” makes use of her time, and her grades and standing among her fellow classmates testify time well spent. Wayne F. Bowlex Wayne joined the militia ami tried life on the border last summer, but decided that he likes Montana State better. While on the border lie gained some knowledge of the eccentricities of Ford’s which stand without tying. However, Wayne is a quiet, shy, model young man quite occupied with his own affairs. Jon x J. Burke Whenever you see a happy-go-lucky, smiling, six feet and a half (more or less) of Irishman going down toward “Red’s” you can be sure that it is Burke. John rejoices in being from Butte, but tried the simple life on the farm last summer and incidentally added several inches to his chest expansion. In former days John was very shy, but Sergeant Burke of the Life Saving Crew is now often seen at school functions. I r e x e Abraiiam so n Irene is a little girl who hails from Red Lodge, who gets acquainted and makes friends readily, gets her studies and doesn’t seem to have many troubles worth mentioning. It is rumored that “Abe has a special reason for being anxious to return to Red I.odge; in fact, he visited Bozeman this year. Ercell Buxxell Kreell is generally a silent lad. but will talk readily on mechanics, automobiles, hunting or Ashing. “Bunny” once hied himself Hast to school, but decided that M. S. C. was the place, and joined forces with the Juniors. Ercell plays an alto in the band and draws grades with little difficulty. Page Forty- Junior Class Blanche Border Hlanche is a Gallatin Valley lass, so never lias to worn- about writing home, which is fortunate, for besides attending to the heavy duties of being assistant county superintendent, she has to find time to get good grades and have a lot of fun. Hlanche lias never been known to sit out a dance or have a grouch. Albert J. Burton Al” is a young man with considerable capacity (mental, of course), and therefore has some difficulty in finding enough diversions to keep him amused. At present he writes special stuff for the Exponent, and occasionally for the Annual, counts a few million seeds per month, goes out for football, baseball and track and. in fact, everything but fussing. Carl D. Borton Skinnay prefers football to fussing or studying, but will’ submit to either on sufficient provocation. Carl decided that the life on the farm was not for him and registered Engineering. Skinnuy” is tIre best-informed man in school on the subject of coo-education and college romance, as he has patrolled the campus as night watchman tor three years, but if daisies won’t tell, neither will Skimmy.” Minnie Babbitt Minnie is a quiet girl, who ’tends strictly to business and does not believe in taking this life too frivolously. She believes in applying what she learns in college, and it is said on good authority that there are not many better cooks this side of Paris. Llewellyn A. Luce “Doc’s” long suit is talking. In addition to being a crack debator, he will converse freely on life insurance. the weather, etc. Doc is one of the original fussors. However, lie is somewhat handicapped this year, as he has i keep me • on Chicago. Perhaps you didn’t know it. but Doc’s Holm is in Chicago. Ora C. Mudd That old threat. Do this or your name will be mud.” has no terrors for Ora. Mudd came here from Hillings Poly and started to show the boys how to draw grades in Engineering. O. C. is always on hand to run for the Juniors. He once made a hit with Prcxy (in Economics) by volunteering to thaw out a frown radiator. Forty-nine Junior Class A. L. Christensen Christy” has the reputation oi being the biggest man in the class. He holds down a position as center on the football team and in his spare time pounds boards and saws nails for J. C. Park. Christy” has tried out two classes in his college career and decided that he likes the Juniors best. Chris steps out once in a while, but complains that lie cannot find a girl whom he can look up to —literally speaking, of course. Clifford Cor kins Clifford started his college career as as Aggie, but seems to have gone Hugs this year. Rusty has a certain liking for all kinds of insects and prefers to view life tlmi a binocular, lie is the junior member ot the firm of Kink and Kork. but seems to have fallen victim to one of the dangers of his pro. fossion. as he has been badly bitten by the affinity bug. Mary Danielson Maty Dee. so called to distinguish her front the Mary M's, Mary K‘s and Marry lie's, is a very versatile young lady. If there is anything in any line that Mary can't do it has not yet been discovered at M. S. C. Her great delight is to walk about forty miles or so. ski all day and then walk home in time to take in a dance for the evening's entertainment. Harold Dickson Even tho Dick” couldn't stop a pig in an alley, he certainly convinces the business men that they ought to advertise in the Exponent, of which lie has been Business Manager for two years. But just to show that he i an all-around fellow, Dick won hi letter in baseball and participated in class basketball and track. Dick is popular with the ladies and uses his opportunities to good advantage. Warren C. Drummond A musical lad is Brick. as evidenced by his title of Commissioner of Interest Musical. Ho leads the band in Lou’s absence, presides over M. E. meetings and is a slab artist of no mean ability. In fact. “Brick is one of the mainstays of the Junior nine and i a real booster for anything which pertains to the clas or to the college. Elizabeth Emiioff ••Betty is a perfectly gentle, extremely jolly maiden who is always on hand tor class meetings, and her opinions are often heard in those sage gatherings. Betty is the undisputed champion fudge maker on the hill, not excluding Miss Harkins herself. She is often seen strolling on the campus, and is a great believer in the affinity of certain chemical compounds. especially the salt .. Page Fi Junior Class Medra Hall Mcdra is another one of Gallatin High's products. She made quite a reputation in her Freshman year as a qualitative analyst, and since then she has been upholding her reputation for grades. Media is not adverse to taking in college dances and is always on hand when the Bobcats play. Joiix Collett John is the artist of the class. lie can draw you anything from a potato bug that looks real enough to walk, to a frontispiece for the Annual, and much of his work decorates this book. Johnny is proverbially persistent and industrious and bids fair to attain his ambition to draw a good -.alary. Jl Ctl always be depended upon to help out the Junior baseball team in the spring. Carl Helstrom “Skinney” and Rocky” are usually seen together, for they are the best of pals. Carl went to Belgrade last spring with the Engineers who surveyed the swamps and has never been the same boy since. Skinnev” is always modest and surprised everyone, including himself, in the cross-country last year. Since then he has willingly lent his prowess as a runner to the Juniors. Russell Jackman Russell joined our class this year after being out a year, and seems to like the change. This tall and genial person is Bud’s first assistant in McIntyre's establishment, and as a result of long winter evenings with nothing to do but study, lie pulls his share of grades. Arne Johnson Arne was once a fusser. hut found himself outclassed. and has tried ever since to find where he belongs, lie has at last become a believer in single blessedness and an ardent member of the Stags. Once in a while Arne can be found in the Y. M. C. A. Beulah Haller “Beulcr from Butte takes Home Economics and docs well in it. altho it seems superfluous, for she apparently already has a Cook, but you couldn't convince Beulah she has one too many. Beulah is assistant librarian this year, but finds it difficult to look stern enough to suppress the noisy Freshmen who violate the sanctity of our cemetery for books. 'ifty-one Junior Class Marie Flood The V. V. C. A. decided last year that Marie was the logical executive for their organization, and she has very capably filled the position as president since that time, so Montana State need not be surprised to find another Jeanette Rankin among the alumni in a few years. William P. Finlay When it comes to talking. Bill'’ is sure there with the goods. He prospers during the summer by convincing farmers that lie has just the books they need in their libraries, and in winter persuades the Faculty that they are overlooking a good bet if they don’t pass him. •'Bill believes in the fair sex and captures the hearts of the Freshmen damsels whom he escorts to the campus in the College bus during registration. Albert Ford Whenever you see a fellow in overalls carrying a couple of big pipe wrenches or a twenty-foot length of pipe to some distant spot on the campus, chances are it is Ford. Park’s right-hand man. Albert is a studious fellow who manages to pull the best grades among the Engineers. He has been here a long time, as he started in the Preparatory Department. Helen Gray When it conies to a contest for the sunniest smile in school Peggy” will hold her own with the best of them. She is occasionally seen with Medra Hal! hurrying to make an eight o'clock class. Helen is studying Home Economics, but seems to have a liking for Bacteriology and Chemistry. John Hastings Jawn is a Red Lodge product with a strong arm. as is evidenced by his college record with the spear. He was one ot the unfortunate who took part in that awful Mexican War. but returned with only superficial injuries. He gets good grades without undue fuss while holding a non-member certificate from the fussers’ club. E. Roland Glass A wit of the dry sort—extra dry, Doc is not adverse to the co-eds. hut usually prefers to gather with the boys. Roland is an Electrical, but as a pastime puts in a full shift each day mixing pills for the sick ones. In spite of bis diminutive size, lie is prominent in class athletics, starring in football and baseball. Page Fi Junior Class Arthur Hoem Art is well named, as he is responsible for a good many of the artistic signs which appear from time to time on the bulletin hoard and show windows downtown. Altho Ait” is not superstitious, he believes in signs. He also sings in the Glee Club and spends his spare time tickling a mandolin at the College Club. Some of his work appears in this book. Ruby Hodgkiss Rube” from Choteau—another of the famous Hodgkiss family, whose names appear prominently in the annals of M. S. C. Ruby believes in the outdoor life and convinces others, as she always has company whether climbing mountains, wading rivers or walking ties. Her grades are the best to be had and her attendance reconi at college dances is seldom beaten. Louis K. Jolley Louis deserted the Seniors to pilot the Bozeman street car system, but decided that it was all wrong and transferred his affections to the Juniors. Jolley stars in football, drill and track, having won a letter in football, a credit in drill and a point in the Missoula track meet. He is quite a lion with the ladies, especially on the train. Kenneth M. King Kenneth joined us as a Soph after doing time at the C. of Washington. Kink” is a bear when it comes to the pursuit of knowledge and regularly expects an A Hush. From football to singing “Gypsy John.” he always puts forth his best efforts. Athletics and the Y. consume a greater part of his time, and Bugs” the rest. Martha Johnson Martha’s summer address is Clancy, and she resents any slur against the infant city which she has adopted. But even at that, you will discover that Martha is about as jolly a girl as you will find in seven states. Martha was very partial to Public Speaking when she was a Freshman and has been at a loss to find a subject to fill its place ever since. Jean D. Kelley Jean claims Anaconda as his borne town. Kelley is one oi the star orators and debaters of the institution and always turns out for class athletics, where he was an able member of the famous Junior back-field. In his spare time he serves as first lieutenant in the Cadet Corps. J. 1). does well in his studies and has a decided preference for A. I. 2. Junior Class Helen Lund Helen is a dainty little maiden, who from the vantage point of a high stool paints Japanese jugs and landscapes with equal ease. She can design you anything from a bookmark to a genuine oriental Persian rug, and it is bound to be good. Helen makes friends readily, for she smiles even when she gets mad,” which is not often, and her enthusiasm in school affairs is very contagious. Harold Pippenger Here is a quiet chap, one who has patience and perseverance that is not often found. Harold wields a bow in the orchestra, but otherwise does not create any great commotion. Altho he lives a long way from downtown, Pipp” is not adverse to attending Hodecker's latest thriller on Saturday night. Frank J. O’Connor Honesty is Frank’s most recent official moniker, but when he talks of Red Lodge we have our doubts. Frank took a whirl at .Junior football and declares tii.a it i' some game. He lives up to Brother Bill’s reputation in regard to the fair sex, which accounts for his popularity among the boys and his election as chief stag for the coming year. Carter C. Ribelin Carter once took a flier in grain and later one from a pet motorcycle, and has never been the same boy since. However, he gets by in Engineering and is a devil with the ladies. Carter spends his evenings patrolling the barren wastes of the campus with a ukalelee to see that no one runs away with any of the buildings. Louise Langohr Whenever the Juniors plan a sleighride. a trip to the “M or any other event requiring “eats” for a successful culmination, you can count on Louise to see that the proper brand and amount of calories is supplied. Louise always does her share, and more too. in anything that pertains to school or class, and Montana State does not hold a more loyal booster. Alger Pope Pope is seldom heard from, as he spends his nights bossing the circulation department of the Daily CYocodile. his days in drawing grades in Engineering and his summers working on the campus. Pope turns out for interclass track and is hard working and conscientious in everything he does. Junior Class John H. McCabe After a year at Gonzaga, Whizz decided in favor of a life with the wild and tree, so registered at Bozeman. Whizz was a model young man until he discovered that he had a way with the ladies: since then he has been incorrigible. Mac starred at end on the memorable Junior eleven and took a whirl at basketball. Myrtle Kuhns Kuhnsic —strong on the Dutch Cleanser. Wastebaskets were made to put crumbs in, books to bang clothes on, keys to lock doors with—is her motto. Myrtle is assistant Dean and welcomes with a smile the trembling Freshmen on their initial visit to Hamilton Hall, which accounts for the popularity of that institution. Myrtle exacts obedience from the dormitory girls and leans heavily toward the Y.— both M. and W. John Y. Minar Long. lean, lank and limber, an unassuming sort of a duffer.’- John can always be counted on to do bis share in class athletics or to write up an article for the Exponent. In fact, he was captain of our famous Junior football team. He started with the engineers, but soon came to the conclusion that the “back to the soil movement was a reality. Shorty says that the real life is the bachelor life, and goes about practicing what lie preaches. Paul Xye Paul registered Aggie and then started in to get solid with the Dean of Agriculture. This winter he decided that owing to the high cost of living he ought to make some money, so he has spent all his spare moments pushing snow off the skating rink, so that the next storm will have clean ice to fall on. 1 I RTEXSE KlRSCH NER Hortense has a smile and greeting for everyone, and was never known to be at loss for the proper thing to say or something to be enthusiastic about. Hortense is musical, in fact she was once graduated in music, but decided there were other things to be learned so she is now taking Home Economies. Lee Park Whenever Lee opens bis mouth he usually savs something, whether he is debating or merely expounding the fallacies of trying to fuss a girl, work up debates, be assistant librarian and manage a fraternity house at the same time. Because he is a good debater he usually wins his arguments. I.ee is also president of the Dramatic Club and a member of the famous Guide Post Company. TTl ... «... Junior Class Jack Sweat “John” is a versatile young man from somewhere near Great Falls, lie plays a squawk stick in the band when not acting as drum-major, steps out with the ladies occasionally and spends most of his spare time ’tending Prof. Whipple’s pet flowers in the green-house. If Jack was ever worried it was this semester, as he is business manager of the Annual and had to solicit all the advertising. Marjorie Quaw Marjorie is ordinarily very good natured, but appears somewhat worried, as she lost much sleep last semester working up artistic designs for the Annual, as she is the art editor. In addition to being an artist of no mean ability, “Marj” can drive a car, skate, ski or play tennis among the top-notchers and is never far away when a frolic is staged. Clinton G. Stranaiian “Stranny breezed in from Fort Benton and registered engineering, but at the end of the first semester climbed on the Aggie boat. Clint's long suit is preparing heads for the Exponent, and by his art along this line secures the perusal of the lowly cub’s efforts. “Stranny ' answers the call when men are needed for interclass athletics, and his blond head takes well with the ladies, altho he is not a charter member of the fussers club. Mary Rowe Away over in the Bitter Root Valley there is a little town by the name of Victor, and it is certainly veil named if Map- is a sample of the students of that young metropolis. Mary specializes in Stenography and writes letters for Prof. Holst for practice. However, her interest in the Shorthorns does not prevent her from taking an active part in class affairs. Edward Sutherland Shorty” has already tried several classes and will finish with the Juniors if the militia is not called out more than two or three times more, for he served in the Mexican War with the Second Montana. Shorty” wears the original undefaceable smile and shows a marked affection for two things: his pipe and chemistry. Ulmont Swan I'lmont was made unusually large to carry around his unusual name without discomfort, lie hails from Butte, but not being Irish, has some difficulty in proving his claims. I'lmont once turned out for football, but decided the game was too strenuous for one with his easy-going disposition. He has a stand-in somewhere, as he may be seen driving a car at times. Page Fifty- Junior Class Alice McCone Mic-ky” is a demure little blond from somewhere near Glendive, seldom seen alone on the campus, but apparently always in pleasant company. Alice is an enthusiastic promoter of class parties, sleigh-rides and so forth, but she, too, seems to hold the secret of how to get grades and still have a good time. Thomas A. Ross Tom hails from the metropolis of Ada. which is quite a small town to put out such a large package. President oi the class in his Sophomore year, a whiz at basketball and a good student make up only a few of Tom’s attainments, all of which make quite a good record. Floss believes in single blessedness in spite of his popularity with the fair sex. Howe Roth well The bane of Rocky’s existence is one Prof. Conk-ling. but nevertheless he seems to get along all right in Engineering. Rocky is a full-fledged member of the Ho Club (our local Travel Club): goes out for class athletics, especially baseball ami basketball: and is an ardent supporter of rallies and intercollegiate games. Hubert Rice Slicker joined our cla s this year as a full-fledged Junior and the class became enriched to the extent of one booster, one basketball star and one all-around athlete. Rice gained quite a reputation as an extemporaneous speaker this year as a result of being the captain of the victorious Bobcat quintet, averaging at least one speech a week for quite some weeks. Otto Roberts “Sunshine” is certainly � he proper name for this big kid. for his disposition matches his facial contour. Otto has decided that the best way to get acquainted is just naturally to go out and get acquainted, and and so he does. Sunshine specializes in football and Agriculture and makes good in both. Florence Noble Florence is another Bozeman lass. She claims to Ire both Irish and German, but that the Irish got the upper hand. Flo” is one ot the Junior artists and spends much of her time designing tapestry, Dramatic Club posters, church windows and jewelry. Florence is an enthusiast for class parties and stunts. Junior Class J. Gordon Sewell Gordon seems to enjoy Economics, which is Quite a boost for anyone, as is also the fact that he gets grades in Chemistry, altho his evenings are spent away from his room, lie was also active in the Krosh-Soph difficulties when we were underclassmen. Sewell plays tennis for recreation, which in Bozeman means that he doesn't get much recreation. His favorite book is Alice in Wonderland. Gladys Ritz A little bit of Paradise from Anaconda, who joined our class as a Sophomore. Gladness is as cheerful as her name would indicate, and even the theory of complex ions and instability constants have no terror , for her. as Chemistry is her hobby. She also sings in the Glee Club, plays a good game of tennis and is a booster for class affairs. C. B. Sherry Sherry joined our class this year, but seems to have been in error as to which class lie really belongs to. as his no slight prowess in basketball and football was given to the Seniors. Cameron spends most of his time at the Y. and is a booster for that organization and. in fact, a booster and hard worker in anything he tackles. Rubert B. Streets Hubert arrived in a snowstorm about three years ago, but soon found a nice quiet spot in the Biology building where he could work and study undisturbed. He once edited the Exponent and is now chief of this volume, but never lets activities interfere with his grades. Moderation in all things is his motto, even to his attentions to the fair sex. Elvis P. Stearns Stearns came to Montana State from the same school as Hud and Baldy. and just as readily fitted into our school life. Although he left college in the middle of the year, his quiet but pleasing personality had already won him many friends. E. 1 . plays football and was a member of the first squad last fall. Georgia Knott Georgia came to M. S. C. with some advance credits ami is now being claimed by two classes, but being loath to lose so promising a classmate we have put her with the Juniors. Her grades come very near being expressed in three figures, and as a conversationalist she would get about ninety-eight. Georgia is usually seen around the Rook Store or lugging a milk pail to or from the Aggie building. Page Fifty Junior Class Fred Wallace ritz is Dick's right-hand man in gathering ad- for the fcxponent. He drives a big car in his spare time ami is popular with the fair sex. Fred is taking a course in Secretarial work as a preparation for the future, and seems to he making good. Harold M. Werre Wliitey or 4'Worry spends his spare moments in doing the manual labor connected with McC'hord’s feeding experiments, and for this reason is supposed to have a stand-in. “Werre is a loyal Junior and always shows up at class functions and athletic events. But aside from all this. Harold is a hard worker and always manages to draw a good share of A’s. E. Francis Wooldridge “Wooly’’ hails from the wilds of Chinook. E. Francis was strong for the Y. and took an active part in the extension work of that organization. He left us at mid-year and returned to Chinook, lie was always on hand to help with class athletics and we hope to see him back next year. Palmer H. Tubbs Several years ago Palmer arrived in our midst from somewhere in Southern Wisconsin. He registered and stayed, and has been registering ami staving ever since. He used to have quite a lot to do with the fair sex, but she left town ami he has apparently become a hopeless bachelor. Sophomore Class Leo Humphrey. Stella Solberg .

Although one of the youngest organizations, and the only literary society at Montana State College, whose success depends on the efforts of its members alone, there being no outside speakers, it has become one of importance. 'l'h purpose of the society is to further the interest in debate and public speaking, as well as to secure practice in parliamentary law. The membership is limited to the students in Home Economics and Mechanic Arts Department. Page Seventy-l ight School of Agriculture The three-year course in Agriculture is one of the most thriving departments on the hill, and each year sees a substantial increase in enrollment. The short course fills a demand for a practical course in scientific agriculture for students who could not get away from the farms for more than six months in the year. The members have a permanent organization which holds meetings once a week, at which topics of general interest to the school are discussed. The S. of A. has athletic teams and each year a joint dance with the Preparatory Department is held and is considered one of the most popular social functions of the short course.

Pa si Kighty-tliree mmm Associated Students In the spring of 1916 it was decided that the old Student Senate had outgrown its usefulness and was becoming too unwieldy to properly manage student affairs. The organization was changed to the Associated Students of Montana State College and a more workable executive plan outlined. The Council of the Senate, consisting of the President of the Associated Students, the Councilman-at-Large and the Presidents of the three upper classes, carry on the executive duties. In addition, seven Commissioners whose titles explain their duties were chosen to represent the various activities. The Commissioners attend the Council meetings and join in the discussions, but have no vote. The plan thus far has been very satisfactory.

The Montanan, popularly known as the Junior Annual, is published by the members of the Junior Class at great cost in time, money, work and worry. Little needs be said of the book itself. It is well understood to be a combined written and pictorial record of the events of the college year, including the lighter as well as the more serious side of college life. It is also a record of the progress of organizations and individuals from year to year, showing new enterprises and achievements and the growth or decline of old activities. Each Annual Staff has its quota of problems to solve, but this year has been exceptional in the number of new conditions to be met. The Annual has reached a stage where the cry is for retrenchment, but the demand for space is steadily increasing, and some radical changes are not only advisable but necessary. The Staff wishes to thank those who have generously given their time and energy to aid in the preparation of this volume. We wish to thank Roy Strand and Manfred Snow of last year’s Staff, whose timely advice has enabled us to steer clear of many pitfalls. We also wish to thank especially Miss Baldwin and Miss Moore of the Art Department, John Collett. Helen Lund, Arthur Hoem, Gladys Leckliter, Clifford Corkins and Howard Seamans. Hubert B.

But this year the Does was reorganized as a costume party, and was strictly safe, sane and sober. All of the instruments of torture were discarded and the purpose of the organization now is to promote the acquaintance of the Freshmen and upper class girls. The Does has always been one of the most popular organizations on the hill and since its reorganization it bids fair to be still more popular. Stags OFFICERS John Whiteside Wayne Bowi.en. Arthur IIoem .. Henry Mvntzkr .....President Vice-President .....Secretary .....Treasurer The Stags is an organization composed of all regular college men and was organized in February of 1904 for the purpose of celebrating the weathering of the mid-year exams. It is a get-together party in the first sense of the word and is the only organization at M.S. C. which satisfactorily accomplishes that purpose. The 1917 celebration and initiation was a success in every sense of the word, the largest and liveliest bunch of fawns in years taking the oath. The performance began in the usual way with the preliminary street initiation features, some of which were: the bootblacks, Coxey’s army, and sandwich men. etc. These preliminaries lasted until evening, when, after a short respite, the Stags-to-be were tested with the Burning Sands, the Arch of Hell, the Burning Brand and the rest of the special torture devices which make up the nerve-racking initiation. After the Fawns had become full-fledged Stags, the crowd adjourned to the Bozeman, where the cravings of the inner man were satisfied, and from there they journeyed to the Lyric theater, where a feature picture and picturesque amateur vaudeville were enjoyed. Some few returned to the hall after the show and celebrated until morning. Pag? Nil •. ty-two I'a arc Ninety-?' e Engineering Clubs The students in each of the four major branches of engineering taught at Montana State have a separate organization for the purpose of aiding them in their course and to broaden their training by emphasizing the practical side. Meetings arc held at irregular intervals and matters of special interest in the engineering world are discussed. The clubs are often able to secure practicing engineers or lecturers of renown and derive much benefit from lectures given by these men. The Electrical Club, the oldest of the engineering societies, was organized in 1907 and has had a steady growth until at present it is the largest of the clubs, having an active membership of forty-six. At the same time a Student Branch of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers was installed in the college. Membership in both organizations is open to all electrical engineering students. Each year toward the close of the spring semester the club stages an electric show which always proves quite an attraction. Novel electrical stunts afford considerable amusement to visitors. Working models explaining the principle underlying phenomena such as the X-ray, electric storms, and electroplating are seen in operation. Demonstrations of some Page Ninety-lftur of the interesting and little-known commercial uses of electricity are given. The show is fast becoming one of the most popular affairs on the hill. The Civil Engineering Club, which was organized in 1908. has done much to aid its members along the lines outlined above, in showing the relationship between the theoretical and practical side of the subject. Actual practices in the engineering world are discussed and lectured on. The Mechanical Engineers likewise have a prosperous organization, which has existed since 1914. They have at present petitioned the American Institute of Mechanical Engineers for permission to establish a Student Branch at Montana State, and it is very probable that the request will be granted. The youngest organization is the Architectural Engineering Club, which was formed just a few months ago. ten years after the organization of the Electrical, the first engineering club on the hill. The Architectural course was only recently established, but has already seven members, with every prospect for steady growth in the future. • Sinetv-iKe 1‘usrc Nim-ty-six Electrical Engineering Club Carl Ladf.nburg.

The Chemists are notoriously live ones and when they get together they get results. Meetings arc held at regular intervals and some member of the Chemistry department of the College or Experiment Station gives a talk on some phase of chemistry. The club has also held a number of very successful social meetings during the past year. Page One Hundred One Home Economics Club OFFICERS Edith Fowler.

It has for its purpose the development of the interests of this course and it is one of the most popular clubs, especially about lunch time. The club gives dinners and lunches to distinguished visitors, and one of its annual affairs is a lunch given to the contestants at the basketball tournament. Meetings are held at intervals, at which practical problems relating to Home Science questions are discussed.

As this objection has been removed, on the occasion of the consolidation of the state institutions into the University of Montana, it was decided to admit Greek Letter societies. Montana State has now seven prosperous fraternities, four for men and three for women. These fraternities play an important part in the social life and activities of the college, and in the absence of a dormitory for men the fraternities’ houses provide comfortable accommodations and congenial environment for the college men. At present only one fraternity has been granted a national charter, but within the next year or so it is expected that several more will be granted. Honorary fraternities also will not be long in coming. Page One Hundred Six Alpha Omicron Pi Founded at Barnard College, Columbia University, January 2. 1897 ROLL OF CHAPTERS Pi—H.

Regimental Band The band, under the able leadership of Lou Howard, has developed into a thoroughly competent, well-trained musical organization. The band has grown wonderfully in the last few years and now has a membership of over forty. It is one of the most popular organizations of the college and one of the best. Last March the band made a tour of the larger cities of the state and gave a series of concerts to crowded houses in the interests of the college. Stops were made at Big Timber. Billings. Lewistown, Great Falls. Helena and Anaconda. At every one of these places the boys were accorded a royal welcome and an invitation to return in the future. The trip was such a success that it was decided to make it a permanent affair if possible. Besides making the big annual trip, the band gives two concerts and several dances, which always rank with the most popular social functions of the school year. The band also plays for rallies and nearly all the athletic contests and never fails to arouse an enthusiastic following. The band has already made hundreds of friends for the college and is making more each year. As an evidence of the enviable reputation it holds throughout the state, the band was invited to play at Helena at the mustering out of the militia, which had just returned from the border, and the impression created was to say the least very favorable. Much of the success of the band is due to the untiring efforts of Director Lou Howard, who has for a number of years trained the band boys. Orchestra and Glee Clubs The Orchestra and Glee Clubs, while not as often heard in public as the Band, are just as much appreciated when they do appear for a concert or recital. The Orchestra, under the leadership of Professor Jackson, gives one or two concerts in Assembly, and record attendance is the rule on these occasions. The Orchestra is also in demand for receptions and dramatic entertainments, and never fails to please. The Glee Clubs, trained by Professor Currier, likewise give annual concerts in Assembly to appreciative audiences, besides appearing in special numbers at debates and other occasions.

The Dramatic Club was organized in 1911 as the Jack O’Lanterns and in 1915 the name was changed to The Footlighters and membership made competitive. The club, which now has fifty members, made its debut in October in a farcial court trial entitled “Bacon vs. Shakespeare.” On December 16 a capacity crowd witnessed a vaudeville performance in the Drill Hall. Among the attractions were a musical comedy tabloid. “O You Bug,'’ and a one-act drama. “In the Dark.” In the month of February a four-act comedy. “The Guide Post.” was presented for the especial entertainment of the guests of the college during Farmers’ W eek. This last production proved so popular that the troupe, at the invitation of the Extension Department, went to Havre, Montana, where they played to a large and appreciative audience of farmers and townspeople. “The Guide Post” was written especially for the Dramatic Club by Una B. Herrick and Miss Mignon Quaw. Five productions in all will be given during the college year 19lb-1917. and the Dramatic Club has already made a name for itself as one of the livest organizations in M. S.

Twelve men entered the try-out for the squad and out of these twelve it was indeed difficult to pick out the eight best. Although all the debates were not won this season by the College, nevertheless Montana State made a good showing in every debate. To Professor E. A. Duddy. coach of debating, and to Lleyellyn Luce, commissioner of interests literary and forensic. belongs the greater part of the credit for Montana State’s success in forensics in the last year.

Pag One Hundred Forty-two The spring of 1916 saw the first revival of interest in military drill since Montana State’s drill instructor was recalled to active service about ten years ago. During this period many efforts were made to secure a competent officer, but the War Department did not have enough such men to go around. Last spring many students volunteered for drill and Prof. E. L. Currier and J. R. Parker of the Experiment Station gave instruction. Last fall Captain Hollis C. Clark of the United States Army was detailed as Professor of Military Science and Tactics by the War Department, and later Sergeant Fred Bloss. also of the United States Army, was detailed as his assistant. A battalion of four companies was formed from the Freshmen and Sophomore classes and many of the Juniors and Seniors who elected drill. All upper classmen who were in the volunteer company last spring were eligible for positions as officers and non-commissioned officers in the cadet corps this year. Altho seriously handicapped this year by an inadequate supply of antiquated equipment and the lack of a suitable place to drill, the cadet corps has made good progress in learning the rudiments of military science. By next year it is planned to have adequate equipment and facilities for drill, and in the course of a few more years Montana State will have a stellar military organization.

They have for their purpose the boosting of M. S. C., and with her. the athletics which she fosters. Several banquets were given this year by the club. A trophy case has been placed in Montana Hall by the members and is rapidly filling with trophies of athletic contests. The club also has the care of the teams entered in the interscholastic basketball tournament in their hands. The organization was founded in 1912 and is one of the hardest working and most energetic associations on the hill. J_L ft.,.. U.Mi.i, ...1 I ..in -■ i.ii Coach Fred Bennion Coach Bennion has put Montana State on the map in at least two of the major branches of athletics since his arrival at M. S. C. The first time was two years ago. when our football team enjoyed the most successful season since the foundation of the college. Just to prove that it was no accident, he repeated this feat, with additions, by putting out the best basketball team that Montana ever had, a team which in competition with the best in the country was victorious in nineteen out of a possible twenty games. In addition to this. Bennion was the first coach to develop responsible athletic managers, men who could handle things right. Coach Bennion is successful because he really knows the things he teaches and has the ability to teach them to others: and also because he has the loyal support of his men and every student on the hill. Page One Hundred Fifty I'aco One lliiwlred Fiity-iwo Review of the Football Season When Coach Bennion issued the call for football men the prospects were anything but bright. Only a few experienced men remained for the team, as graduation and Uncle Sam in the form of the Mexican expedition had removed most of the older men. At the end of a few nights of practice, however, several likely men had showed up and it began to look possible that Montana State would have a winning team. This prospect became a certainty when the Butte East Side Athletic Club were taken into camp by a score of 27 to 0. Several rough spots in the lineup were smoothed out and the following Saturdav the School of Mines was humbled 22 to 7. Altho the team at this time was far from a perfect machine, the men were showing good fight and spirit, but were a little overconfident, as was attested when they were defeated by a lineup up old stars and Alumni. The presence of Bennion on the All-Star lineup made it possible to locate the greatest weaknesses of the team. It was a greatly humbled and determined team which went into the big game of the season on November 4th against the heavy aggregation from over the hills. That game will without doubt be long remembered as an example of what an inexperienced team with unlimited fight can do against a vastly stronger team. Every man was an individual star in that battle and the people who attended the game were given an exhibition of real football. The feature of the game was the Bobcats’ advance to a touchdown by a series of four spectacular forward passes in succession, netting in the aggregate sixty yards. The following week the Bobcats suffered the only intercollegiate defeat of the season when they lost to Gonzaga by a safety. The two teams were almost equal in weight, but the team couldn’t get an even break in luck and was suffering from the game of the previous week. The last game of the season was played against the Utah Aggies on their own field, resulting in a tie score. 17 to 17. This completed the season’s games, leaving the Bobcats with a remarkable record, considering that the team was formed almost entirely from green material, with only three or four men around which to construct a winning lineup. With four of the regulars lost by graduation and one ineligible next year, there will be plenty of opportunity for new material and this year’s subs to land a berth on the team. There should be at least ten or a dozen of this year’s squad available next fall, and prospects of a winning team are much brighter than last fall. FOOTBALL TEAM Jay Duquette—Captain, Tackle Jav was the most experienced player on the 1916 eleven and was chosen as the man to lead the team on the failure of Gatton to return to school. Jay’s last year at M. S. C. was also his best year, and he never failed to show to advantage, altho the majority of the time he played against men who outweighed him from ten to twenty pounds. As captain of the team. Jay made an enviable reputation for himself in the Missoula game, and it was in this game that he was pitted against the 230-pound Keeran. Montana State will lose one of her hardest fighters and most aggressive players when Jay graduates in the spring. Page One Hundred Fifty-five Carl Bortox—Tackle When Benz passed the remark that Carl was the hardest man that he had ever played against, he summed up a good many of SkinnayV attributes in a few words. An aggressive, heady player, with all kinds of fight and go. Carl was one of the best men on the 1916 eleven. Skinnay” has yet another year to play on Montana State teams, and it should be his best year. Everett M acSiwdden—Guard Playing his first and also his last year in intercollegiate football. ‘'Mac was one of the strongest defenders of the line. He played the whole season with an ankle which would have made many a man give up, but even with this handicap was one of the hardest fighters and most aggressive players on the team. Graduation will take one of Montana State’s best men from the team. Hjlmer L. Daiil—Guard After four years on the “scrubs,” Hilmar stepped up and made good on the team. Unfortunate injuries kept him out of some of the games, but in those in which he played he was always the aggressor. One of the things which Phat has always coveted has been an M” sweater, and this year he reached his goal. Dahl is another man who will be lost to next year's team by graduation. Pace One Hundred Fifty !'- A. L. Christensen—Center A safe and accurate passer and an aggressive player, in addition to his weight, made “Christy” an excellent man to build M. S. C.’s line around. “Christy” was shifted from guard to center and made good. Supported by his team-mates, he smeared many a play, and his long reach aided in knocking down passes. “Christy” played a great defensive game in the Missoula battle. Christy” will be with the team again next year. Hubert Rice—End Rice has been fast developing into a good end. but has the misfortune to be ineligible for next year's team because of four years in basketball. “Slicker” was undoubtedly the fastest man on the team and this, coupled with his weight, made him one of the best natural types of players on the team. Rice’s great drawback was his inexperience, as he had never attempted to play before last year. Washington Boberg—Quarterback “Wash” was the man selected to fill the quarterback position in the back-field and displayed the best of generalship in every game. Starting the season with little experience, he rapidly became one of the dependable men not only to run the team, but to carry the ball as well. “Bo” was an excellent deep-field man and did the passing on the Bobcat’s advances by the air route. With two more years to play, he will be one of the stars of future teams. I lm. Him.h.'.l l-'inv--.t «-ll Thomas A. Ross—Halfback “Tom” got his chance on the first team because of his excellent showing in the interclass series last fall, when he played in the backfield of the Junior team. “Tom” is fast and has the weight to hit the line hard. When given a chance in the Utah game, Ross gave a good account of himself. He will have the best of chances to win his letter next year. Nelson Graves—Halfback “Gravy” was a willing worker, but lacked the speed and experience necessary for a regular berth in the backfield. In those games in which he played he put up a good brand of football and should develop into a good man. Mark Yheeler—Halfback Wheeler, without a doubt, would have made his letter but for early season injuries which kept him out of the games. He showed fine promise and plenty of fight, but did not get back into the game until nearly the end of the season. He will doubtless be seen in the backfield next year. Paec One Hundred Fifty-eighl T| Elvis P. Stearns—End A hard fighter and a heady player, although handicapped by lack of weight, Stearns was always in the game. An early season injury kept him out of several games, but in those in which he participated he demonstrated his worth. With one more year to play. Stearns should be a good man. Otto Roberts—Guard Roberts had two monikers which gave a good index to some of his qualities: “Sunshine’' because of the smile that never came off. and “Rockpile” for the feeling that a person received on bumping into him. “Sunshine” was rather green at the game, but developed wonderfully and has good promise for next year. Albert J. Bortox—Utility Lineman But for his lack of weight “Al” would have become an excellent man, for he had plenty of fight and determination and used his head to good advantage. He has played all along the line and with a little more weight and experience should land a berth in next year’s squad. David S. Thomas—Utility Lineman “Dave” was another man with plenty of fight, but handicapped by lack of weight. Dave” spent three years on the “scrubs.” and was one of the most willing workers on the team. He is unfortunate in that graduation will destroy his chance for a regular place on next year’s team. Waldemar Hansf.x—Halfback Altho lie was the least spectacular of all the backfield men, “Baldv” was ‘Old Reliable” himself when it came to making that much-needed one more yard. Hansen played an excellent game the entire season and displayed real nerve at all times, one of the best-remembered examples being his finish in the Missoula game, when his arm was thrown out and reset on the field. “Baldv” will be lost by graduation. Clarence Bergman—End Bcnnion’s verdict of Bergman is that he is the best end in the state and the find or the season. “Herman was shifted from guard to end and fell into a niche which had evidently been made to his order. He played a wonderful defensive game all season and was a sure receiver of the forward pass. With two more years to play. Bergman should develop into an all-Rocky Mountain end. Lewis Jolley—Halfback After having been out most of the season because of ineligrbility. Jolley came back in the Missoula game after only a few nights’ practice and put up a wonderful defensive game. Jolley is one of the very few men remaining from the old 1914 eleven whose playing won for M. S. C. a place in the Rocky Mountain Conference. Jolley has one more year in football. Page One lhm li'e l Sixty Kenxeth King—Quarterback King’s chance came in the Utah game, and he displayed his true worth. He handled the team in fine shape and displayed good generalship in the pinches. King will have an opportunity to make good next year. Melvin Sex z—IJ neman Senz lacked maturity and experience, but displayed some real spirit. He is a steady worker and with a little more time and seasoning he should develop into a good man. Lawrence Price—Utility End and Center Price was almost totally lacking in football knowledge when he turned out for football, but soon learned. Price is big and rangy and willing to learn. He will bear watching next year. Clarence Bryan—Fullback Besides having the distinction of being the only Freshman to make his letter. Bryan put up an excellent game. He was the best broken field runner on the team and was a good man on defense. If Bryan returns next fall he will be a good man for the backfield. CLASS FOOTBALL Altho but three games were played, the interest in the conflicts was at a high pitch and some real football nerve if not science was brought into view. The Juniors came away with the championship, decisively defeating the Seniors and Freshmen. The latter held the Sophomores to a tie. so the Juniors laid undisputed claim to the title. The Juniors went into the field in the first game to meet the Freshmen expecting defeat, but their team showed unusual strength and they found it easy to run up a 24-0 score. The Juniors next mixed with the Seniors and administered a drubbing to their old rivals 19-0. The last game of the series was a feature contest between the Sophs and Freshmen. resulting in a 0-0 score, neither side having an advantage, altho they fought like demons.

S. C. was the most successful since the foundation of the college is merely to repeat what every student knows. The wonderful team built up thru the efforts of Coach Reunion has won for M. S. C. a reputation and a recognition as among the best in the country in at least one branch of athletics. A record of nineteen victories with only one defeat, and that by the world champion Illinois Athletic Club team, is an enviable one for any school. A promising bunch of material was in evidence at the beginning of practice. Rice. Ross and Burgess were back at school from the 1915-1916 team, while Taylor, Jorgenson and Bergman reported from the second string. An exceptional lineup of Freshmen was also called out. among whom were Harris, Pitts, Bush and Crum, all of whom were selected for the first squad. After a few days of practice the team journeyed to Helena, where Montana Wesleyan was taken into camp by a 4 to 1 score. The team was in poor shape and many rough edges were in evidence. Two weeks of hard practice, however, enabled them to take the measure of the team from the Oklahoma Normal, which was on a victorious tour, by a score of 45-15. A week later the Yellowstone All-Stars, an independent team, were trounced 32-10. On the first of February the team began their Western tour. The men were in fine condition and the most effective lineup, with Ross and Harris at guards. Rice at center and Jorgenson and Taylor at forwards, had been discovered. The first two games were with the Universitv of Missoula and resulted in two decisive victories for the Bobcats by the scores of 35-5 and 31-15. These games were exceptionally rough, and as a result the next game, that with Whitman College, came within a nai-row margin of resulting in disaster. However, the game was won by a two-point margin. The next scalp to be added to the collection was that of the Dayton Athletic Club, the game being a walkaway for the Bobcats. The University of Idaho was next in line, tasting defeat 26-20 at the hands of Bennion’s warriors. The game was followed by another easy victory over the Whitworth College quint. The last two games on the trip were played with the speedy five of Gonzaga University at Spokane. both resulting in victories. The team was given a rousing reception on their return home and the following Friday saw the Chicago Crescents, an independent team, take an awful beating 52-1 at the hands of the Bobcats. The Crescents’ one point came on a free toss during the last minute of play. The last four games of the regular season were played in Bozeman and were witnessed by an enthusiastic student body. The Utah Aggies were the first victims, losing both games to the Bobcats, but contesting every point. These two games were probably the fastest ever staged in Bozeman. The Utah quint had been conceded the Rocky Mountain championship before their trip to Bozeman, and by their defeat the home team automatically became the champions. The last two games of the season were victories for the Bobcats over the Bruins from Missoula. A little overconfidence was evident in the first game, but the Bobcats came back in the second with a substantial victory. These games cinched the state title. These games made a total of sixteen victories without a defeat and because of this record the invitation to compete at the A. A. U. tournament at Chicago to decide the national championship was accepted. The trip was made possible by the loyal support of the business men of Bozeman, who advanced the necessary funds. That their confidence was not misplaced was shown by the way in which the boys acquitted themselves at the big tourney. Four of the strongest teams in the tourney were pitted against M. S. C. three of these tasting defeat, while the fourth, the Illinois Athletic Club team, the winners of the world’s championship, gave the Bobcats their only defeat of the season. Bennion’s team came away with the third place by defeating the Seward Park Blues 16-9 in what is spoken of as the bloodiest battle in the tournament. Waterloo Y. M. C. A. and Kalamazoo College were taken into camp in the preliminaries, while the Bobcats met defeat in the third game, but came back strong and won the fourth. The team that won second place was the Brigham Young College of Provo. Utah. This team played some of the same teams that the Bobcats did and comparative scores show that the two teams were very nearly on an equality. The fact that both Montana State and Brigham Young College placed in the tournament speaks well for the brands of basketball played in the West. PoirA ftn.i llnudivwl Qivir.fiua Basketball Team Hubert Rice—Captain and Center Rice, playing his last year at M. S. C., was a large factor in Montana State's success. A great leader and an unsurpassed center. “Slicker” will long be remembered at M. S. C. Rice and Ross were the nucleus around which this year’s team was built. He is mentioned by most critics as all-Xorthwest center. Page One Hundred Sevent. Thomas Ross—Guard Ferocious guarding made Ross one of the best men on the team. “Tom” combines his great speed and endurance with a consistently heady game and can always be relied on. One of “Tom’s” specialties in a close game is to tear down the side lines and roll one in from the corner of the field. As a reward for his stellar work “Tom will captain next year’s quintet. Ralph Jorgenson—Forward After spending three years on the second team. “Jorgy began the 1916-1917 season with a rush and easily earned a berth as a regular. “Swede was an aggressive player and willing worker. A shifty forward and a sure scorer, he was responsible for a great many of the Bobcats’ tallies. “Jorgy” will be lost to the team by graduation in the spring. Mom er Taylor—Forward Tavlor spent one year as substitute forward, but was never in danger of failing to land as a regular this season. Homer was the hardest man on the floor for an opponent to keep track of. and made about half the Bobcats’ points against the best guards in the Northwest. Time and time again he would slip away and blend himself in with the scenery around the Bobcat basket, preferably in a corner of the floor, from which position lie was a steady and sure scorer. Homer has two more seasons at M. S. C. Fra n k H akkis- -Guard Harris was the only Freshman on the squad to win a letter. He alternated with Burgess in playing team-mate with Ross and, like the latter, he was a consistent scorer. A long reach and a willingness and ability to mix made a valuable man of him and a very material help in the success of the Bobcats. Three more years under Bennion will make a wizard out of Harris. PifeOneHui Ire ' enty-two Ralph Burgess—Guard Burgess won his “M” last year and acted as first substitute guard on the Bobcats’ victorious 1916-1917 lineup. His fioorwork was always high class and he always used his previous experience to good advantage in finding out his opponents’ weakness. “Fuzz” has two more seasons at M. S. C. and will make a valuable man for next season's quint. Raymond Cannon—Forward and Manager Acting as manager and first substitute forward. Cannon did not play in many games, but in those in which he took part he exhibited a willingness to mix it and to score. Thru his efforts and those of Coach Bennion. athletic relations were opened with schools in Idaho and Washington. “Ray’' graduates in the spring. i fli • • Hun.!:- - ewtyjlgg Raymond Pitts—Forward This speedy little forward, tho handicapped by lack of weight, is always game and full of fight. His greatest fault was lack of experience, but that fault was largely overcome during the past season. He will probably land a regular berth in the coming season. Elmer Bush—Guard Joe” always gave Slicker” a good workout whenever the first and second teams mixed, and that is quite a lot to say. He has a good eye for the hoop and plays the floor well. Bush lacked in experience, but he has improved wonderfully under Bennion and will be a strong contender in the three years before him. Clarence Bergman—Guard Bergman was one of the cleverest men on the floor. Ability to keep a cool head in critical moments is “Bergic’s” greatest asset. He worked hard the past season and earned a place as substitute guard. He was used in a few games and showed unusual ability in passing. Leibert Crum—Guard Crum was used as a substitute guard and exhibited considerable promise. He lacked experience and maturity, but has improved greatly. His good work on the Freshman team earned him a place on the squad. One more year should make an excellent man of him.

Captain Jack Milburn, Craig Ingram, David Steel and Manfred Snow represented M. S. C. and carried away sixth place, which was a good record, indeed, considering that only four men were entered. Montana’s men were such close contenders in the events in which they were entered that two conference records were broken. The record for the two-mile run was lowered seven seconds and the one-mile record was lowered two seconds. The quarter-mile was also run in very fast time. Ingram was the highest point winner, taking second in the mile. Steel carried away third in the two miles and Snow took a third in the quarter.

The interclass series between the Freshman and Sophomore teams attracted considerable attention because of their bearing on the final result of the seven-event contest between the classes. The Sophs, represented by Llewellyn Luce and Roy Hagen, were easy victors. Freshman-Sophomore Scores Davidson vs. Luce—6-2 and 6-0. Luce winning. Davidson vs. Hagen—9-7 and 6-4. Hagen winning. Bergman vs. Hagen—6-4 and 6-0. Hagen winning. Bergman vs. Luce—6-1 and 6-0. Luce winning. Tennis is more in vogue in the summer or even in the fall than in the spring and the courts are usually well filled during good weather. Marv Danielson and Gladys Ritz won the doubles and Miss Daniel- son the singles in the girls’ tournament. Page One llumlrw) Seventy.seven Baseball The 1916 baseball team made a good showing in spite of various mishaps which cut down the schedule to three games, one with Gonzaga and two with the Black Rocks of Butte, reputed to be the fastest semi-pro team in the state. Only five men remained from the 1915 lineup—Cottier. Clarkson. Dickson. Bullock and Sherry—and C. Borton and Drummond from the second string, but sufficient new material was available to till the gaps. In the first game the Spokane boys piled up a lead in the opening sessions, but the Bobcats came back and won handily, 14 to 11. A second game was started, but a downpour of rain prevented its completion. The next game was played with the Black Rocks and the result was in doubt until the finish. Butte taking the long end of an 8-6 score. The last game, played in Butte, was lost by a score of 10 to 6. the Bobcats' pitching staff being weakened by injuries.

They cannot give a glimpse into the intimate associations, the friendships, frolics and frivolities which are inseparable from college life, and which do so much to tide us over the rough spots. So in order to complete the picture of college life we have gathered in the following pages a few choice morsels in prose, poetry and picture of a more or less facetious character. The follies here introduced are the product of the fertile imagination of some of your schoolmates and were written without remuneration, monetary or otherwise. While in securing our local color we have played upon some of the characteristics, eccentricities and errors of our readers, we have endeavored to render our quips as painless as possible, and trust no mention therein will be considered personal. Of course we refrained from writing as well as we could because we felt constrained to leave room for improvement. Our snapshots have been gathered from as many different sources as possible, but many deserving snaps had to be rejected owing to similarity and duplication. We do not expect, gentle reader, that every one of the little gems of local color submitted will meet with your approval, but if they succeed in portraying student life they have fulfilled their mission. The Follies of 1917 In this passing year of college. Though we’ve gained a lot of knowledge From our lab’ratories, text-books and our teachers, There’s a wisdom not concerning Any written books of learning We’ve imbibed from campus, ballroom, gym and bleachers. So with your kind attention Permit us please to mention A few of this year’s hobbies, styles and passions. Though we’ll state but few examples. They will serve perhaps as samples Of our college fancies, follies, fads and fashions. There’s the midnight raids and rallies, And the Soph and Freshman sallies. And the tug-of-war across the frog pond water! There’s the football celebrations. And the “frat” initiations, The doin’s of the •’Does” and ••Stags big slaughter. With dignified demeanor Every man who is a Senior Has donned the dapper derby, black and shiny, While they deem it wise and prudent That the verdant Freshman student Should wear a cap as green as it is tiny. Kis’htv-tlirft I’aee On Hundred Eighty-four One of this year’s fleeting fancies Is the newest craze in dances; To “Walk the Dawg” is now our ruling passion! And our recreation daily Is to strum the ukulele, For Hawaiian songs are now the reigning fashion. Studes in overalls and jumpers. Dressed as hoboes, “ride the bumpers.” It’s the style to journey thus on some excursion. And when our classrooms cramp us We go “twosing” on the campus, For fussing is the popular diversion. We mask in “Yama-vamas,” Drink tea with fair “Phi-Gammas;” Our professors “rush the can” down to the dairy! Clothes for men are voted tackv Unless they’re made of khaki. For we’re imbued now with a spirit military. Though we’re prone to flirt and frivol And to learn a lot of “drivel.” Yet we’re wide awake and full of “pep” and scrappy: We can live on love and laughter. Without a thought of the hereafter. Though we’re foolish, you can bet your life we’re happy! Paso One Hundred Kightv-six College Follies LIGHTS The subject of lights is an exceedingly bright one. and can evidently be discussed with a good deal of illumination for those who are apparently in the dark. We have of course the usual variety of lights, such as bright lights, spotlights, searchlights and lesser lights, and now and then a starlight. Let’s get down to brass tacks and sec where we're headed. Now getting into the technical definition, Prof. Ham says light is wave motion. That isn’t the idea at all. because all wave motions are not light. Emotional waves or waves of emotion rest rather heavy at times, hence the heavy-heartedness of Chief Carr. Chief says that light is a bright spot, and that there are a few light-headed profs, on the hill. Perhaps so, Mr. Carr, but why refer only to profs.? Are there any questions ? After this short digression, we will light back onto our subject. What are bright lights? You are wrong. Mr. Benepe; we are not now referring to Broadway. Since no one seems to answer correctly, we will say that they are lights which arc brighter, more luminous, and stand out more clearly than others. There are few of these, two in front of Montana Hall, and several inside. The outstanding feature of these is that they shine. What’s that, Mr. Bush? No. just because a fraternity pledge shines his superiors’ shoes, he does not belong to this class of lights. A Freshman is merely a shiner, a black eye on the face of things, as it were. Yes, you are right. Prof. Powell is a bright light, as he shines in all phases of public life. There are some lights who shine only part of the time and cannot come into this class. Some of our athletes are of the bright light type, but soon burn out until next season. Jorgenson says it’s great to be a Bobcat, because the greater illumination makes it easy for students and faculty who never could see him before, to find him and become solicitous about his health. Doc. Luce is a bright light, since he shines in society, debate, track and between times has been known to polish a strip down the center of the hall floor in Montana Hall. No. Mr. Undent, a cinder is not a bright light just because it is always in the public eye. Neither is President Strand a cinder, for the same reason. We will now take up spotlights. What is a spotlight, Mr. McConnell? Correct; a light turned on for the purpose of spotting. However, don’t you think you’re not spotted before the light is turned on. Several of you people were spotted at the first roundup, but the light !’) «••� An.- iiiiii.livil Fielitv-pSarlit mm hasn’t vet gotten into action. Mr. Whiteside, please come up and fix the spotlight. Thank you. Now we will have a demonstration. Miss Sweat, the spotlight is on: will you kindly wake up? Tell us what you know about lights. “Oh. I just love 'em. I danced both of them last night.” I do not understand. Will you please be more explicit? T'm talking about lights. You know—moonlights. ’ Now we will go on with the lecture. If we cast the spotlight around what do we see? Here is the proposition — “Ontogeny recapitulates phytogeny.” What is that. Mr. Ronne? You don't see it? It’s right in front of you. but then engineers never do see it anyway. Prof. Spaulding says we need more light on it. I believe so myself. We will now turn the spotlight on the cosine of the angle Theta. What’s the matter? Why did the spotlight go out? While Mr. Whiteside is fooling with the spotlight, we will have Mr. Ingram demonstrate the searchlight. What! Do we have to wait until commencement week? Oh. 1 see; you are using it to study mechanics. Very well, we must wait, but I must caution you each and all to walk alone on the campus during the demonstration. Among the lesser lights we have many—too numerous to mention, in fact. They shine separately and collectively at periodic intervals, some being snuffed out by the spotlight and others becoming submerged in the frog pond, where no light can exist in its true brilliancy. Some, however, shine forever and become starlights of the dim, distant future. The brightest constellation of lesser lights is the Freshman basketball team. Have you discovered what is wrong with that spotlight? What? I see. Mr. King has just come in and has completely submerged the spotlight in a brighter glow. Class dismissed.

I just got fixed when I heard someone Haller in the Park outside. I went to the door and discovered it was one of those professors who went to Mystic and got lost in a Cooley and was forced to DeCamp in search of shelter. He hadn’t eaten anything but Ham and Rice, which he could not even Cook. I think he was Xye Luce in the head and had little Senz. for he said he was a Seaman, but a Flood put his Shipps to sea. I brought him in. but got a dreadful Shock when he began to rave about going to W'arr—he would cross Westlake and Ford impassable places—he would see the Pope if he had to Rowe across the ocean and brave Cannon. 1 saw some cold Sweat on his brow and retired to the Hall to think. I decided he couldn’t get Hoem, so I put him to bed. I gave him a Glass of water, but he asked for Sherry, but I didn’t have any. I saw his lip Curl, so I ran to the Baker and Taylor to get some. When I returned he had picked up a Stone from the woodbox and said he was going to throw it at the King. Fearing that he would Mashin my head or that I would sustain other Minar injuries, I ducked behind some Tubbs, hoping they Woodward off the blow. Then I got him some bread, but he ate not even a Crum, for he could neither break Xorcutt it. So I prayed my guardian Angell to make poor prof, sleep, and thank goodness, he did.

He bred for beef production, and used Tees Water cattle mainly in the improvement of his stock. In May of the year 1792 he took a trip to Fairholne. where he bought five heifers and a bull from Robert Codings. The heifers’ names were Blossom. Bright Eyes, Isabelle.

We have never breathed a word of it to any mortal, but as the genial warmth of the spring sun has softened our icy heart, our secret refuses to hibernate longer, so we must shout it from the housetops. We have long felt that the Annual would be incomplete without a story contest—it is done in the best literary circles, you know. However, no ordinary contest would suffice, so we started out on new lines. Typical contests are waged with great publicity: ours was kept secret. Generally the world is invited to compete: we admit only the select. (Are you enduring the suspense well?) In short, we inaugurated a short story contest among the members of the faculty. The competitors were unaware of their being entered, and the stories were perpetrated entirely without provocation. Rules of the Contest (1) All stories must be original, or at least never heard on the campus before. (2) All stories must be told during regular class hours to a class assembled. (3) The judges will score the stories on the following points: Probability, 30 points; Delivery, 37I � points : Spelling, 13 points: Punctuation. 4 points: Age. 3 points: Plot. 2V2 points: Literary Value. 4 points. The judges, after deep meditation through eight o’clock Saturday classes for the past six weeks, announce the following awards: First prize. Professor Howard Welsh: second prize. Professor M. H. Spaulding. Professor W. F. Brewer’s story was disqualified for running over time limit, one hour and fifteen minutes, but he was awarded Honorable Mention for earnest endeavor. Professor W. M. Cobleigh was disqualified for entering a stock story. Coach Reunion’s description of the Chicago Armory deserves mention, but was disqualified because the perpetrator was obviously excited. Limited space permits the publication of only the winning entries. ——— JOHNNY HOLMS £ A few assorted SMILES WINDY SH HAT ONI) HIS PIP .

In fact, it is so bad that the farmers got so tired of pushing cannulas into cows to keep them from exploding that they just leave the cannula in the cow’s side, so whenever she starts to bloat she pops off through the cannula like a steam engine exhaust. Some of the more progressive farmers have even improved on that by soldering tin whistles on the cannula, so when the cow starts bloating the whistle blows and the dogs come and drive the cattle out of the alfalfa. Class excused.” Second Prize Militants vs. Meat “Speaking of interdependence between species, we have the classic case of the relation between cats and beef production in England. The production of beef in England depends upon intensive pasture, and in England pasture means clover. The clover crop depends upon the production of seed, and seed production depends on fertilization of flowers by bumblebees. Now the number of bumblebees depends on the number of field mice, for the mice dig out the bees’ nests and destroy them. Also the number of mice depends on the number of cats. We may go on and say that the number of cats depends on the number of spinsters and the spinsters are mostly militants, so we may say that the militants control the beef production in England. But more of this anon.” The path of A’s is hard and fast. The man of ease has never passed. The path of A’s take work of days, The man of ease makes D’s and E’s. From Ax Observation Notebook “The man who said American dyes were inferior to the German dyes must have been related to Zimmerman, for after a preliminary survey of the spring modes in feminine apparel, I venture to suggest that it still snows in Bozeman instead of raining because the rainbow is ashamed to show itself.” 'Lt? W5 2 K JUNIORS C RLS ALPHA PHI PH EPS JUST MAR Y DEC Pago One Hundred Ninety-eight nnuH WITH THE MOST PROFOUND APOLOGIES TO RUDYARD KIPLING W hen the verdant, blatant Freshmen strut to English in their pride, They sometimes find their knees wobbling and would like to turn aside. But the teacher thus encountered rends the Freshmen tooth and nail. For Duddy’s Freshman English turns the Freshmen’s faces pale. W hen Sal. the scientific housewife, goes to Duddy to confer On the themes o’er which she labored, he leaves no peace for her. W hen, at verbal war or conflict, he uplifts his able hands To illustrate his system which no Freshman understands. When the Engineers and Aggies hear him talk with scarce a pause, They often haye to wonder whether ’tis effect or cause. 'Twas the themes and not the lectures made those gaunt old veterans fail. For the English of Prof. Duddy turns the Freshmen’s faces pale. The Freshman’s heart is bursting with the things he cannot say. For the English of Prof. Duddy does not easily slip away: But when Junior meets with Senior, each confirms the other’s tale. 'Tis the English of Prof. Duddy turns the Freshmen’s faces pale. Tears or foolishness impel him. e’er he lays the boneheads low. To concede some form of fairness to the boys who do not know: Mirthful themes divert his anger: wit and pity oft control Him in dealing with a Freshman—to the welfare of his soul. But the job that Prexy gave him. though it’s called another name. Proves him launched for one sole issue, armed and fitted for the same, And to serve that single issue, lest the institution fail. The English of Prof. Duddy must turn the Freshmen pale. Those who flunked in High School English: those whose heads are mostly bone. Oft resort to cribs and bluffing lest their ignorance be known : And to trap these brilliant infants, lest Prexy stop his kale. The English of Prof. Duddy must turn the Freshmen pale. He cannot do more for Freshmen than he has done up to date As tutor of the Infants and the master of Debate; And when themes and briefs are lacking and he strives unclaimed to claim His right to be a wise one. is unquestionably the same. They are told to get convictions, not the latest new spring ties. For convictions make debaters. Heaven help him who denies, He will meet no mere discussion, but the instant white-hot zeal: The declamatory statements which will sound to him quite real. And they know it. know moreover, that the English Duddy gave them Must be written, does not slacken, will enslave but not enthrall them. And they know because he warned them, and the warnings never fail, That the English of Prof. Duddy makes the Freshmen’s faces pale. - BILLY SUNDAYS ONLY RIV ILS JO GOAXINC SPAIN MUCH E BUCKS ONLY BO ON THE HRING LINE COACH BEFORE RE WAS MOBILIZED ALL DRESSED UR SI A REAL ACC E S3K5?.: Page Two Hundred AN AUTOBIOGRAPHY When 1 was a kid and a livin’ at home, every stray turkey, fish or old chicken bone would get caught in my throat on the ‘‘auspicious day” when swell folks had come to our house to stay. And when I got bigger and started to school, every time I was jokin’ or try in' to fool with a feller, he’d scowl and pass by. but he’d most always hit me a lick in the eye. All my teachers despised me and most every time that 1 was exchangin’ two cents for a dime, or a tyin’ a girl to her seat with a string, the teacher would spy me and spoil the whole thing. And of all the diseases that ever was out. I’ve had ’em. from diphtheria clear down to the gout, typhoid, consumption, erisipilis. roup, lumbago, chickenpox. measles and croup. I’ve been packed in ice. I’ve been burned up with heat, and many’s the time I’ve had nothing to eat for months at a time, till I thought I would die. And Oh! how I felt when I had the pink-eye. There’s been snakes that’s bit me and poisoned me bad. and breakin’ my nose has been simply a fad. Every cow and old nag that could stand up alone has kicked me or hit me and mashed up a bone. I’ve been in runaways, train wrecks and fires; I’ve climbed onto churches and fell from the spires; I’ve been stealing apples and started to run. and got shot in the rear with an old gatling gun. I’ve had boils and ringworms, hydrophoby once. too. from a dog that belonged to a ornery old Jew. I ve been mighty near drowned in our old swimming hole, and the wind blowed me oft from a telegraph pole. And that time us kids had sneaked into the morgue, and was foolin’ and playin’ that I was a orge. I got shut in a coffin and they near buried me, a thinkin’ that I was old Grandma McKee. Then there’s millions of other things that I could recall; it would take me forever to tell you it all, for I sure have had a eventful life of heartache, bloodshed, terror and strife. And if you was to get all the facts that there is. and to search back and find out all of my biz. you’d find, for it would sure be easy to see. that a “unlucky sort of a feller” is me. B. Y. Heck, with apologies to Walt Mason. OUR JITNEY BUS Did you ever call up 500 Y and then discover that you had the exact sum of one dollar to spend on a riotous evening? Undoubtedly you have. And then, did you ever fail to take into account Bozeman’s ideal spring weather and have a nice, soft, fluffy snowstorm come up about 7 P. M.? If you ever did. you appreciate the true value of that time-worn, road-racked. erratic but dependable sunny, rainy, snowy weather conveyance, the jitney bus. She may be tattered and torn, have one flat tire, water in the car- wmmmmmmmmmm Pace Two Hundred Tw' ■Mm buretor. and gasoline on the seats, but she is always the fond hope of the lovelorn but poverty-stricken swains. Did you ever tramp down town to buy a new pair of rubbers and discover, to your horror, that you have precisely seven minutes to make Prexie's semi-annual Economics quizz? Did you ever run six blocks after the Bozeman street car system, with a suitcase in one hand and a ukelele in the other? Didn’t you plant your suitcase in the middle of the road and frantically wave your ukelele with one hand while holding on those new horn-rimmed goggles with your other? Didn’t the old one-lunged dyspeptic jitney come roaring around the corner at the rate of 4l 2 miles an hour and save the day so you made the train to Siwash Junction as per schedule? Did you ever—oh. well, of course you have. OUR LATEST FOLLY Some regrettable specimens of the genu Homo, species sapiens, upon more or less cogitation have geniously contrived many abominable adornmentations for the dome of their private cathedral, not the least of which are horn-rimmed spectacles. The stampede for this particular article of commerce has proved contagious and diseased individuals in this epidemic assert in oratorically brilliant language that they are amazingly substantial and exquisitely becoming to their particular physiognomic contour. Substantial? Granted! Becoming? Our good friends, the aborigines entertained an inherent conviction that their capacious ear and nose rings, as well as the vast brass rings that encircled their tawny necks, were exquisitely decorous. Were they right? Yes? Then so are they of the tortoise shell brigade. But meditate a moment and contemplate the impression your decorations will have on the future generations! Although greatly prized in ancient times as an ornament for household furniture, the promotion of tortoise-shell to the adornment of the human sort by the male sex is unprecedented. But in spite of all your convictions, in spite of your trying to look like that wise bird, the owl. my friends, you should surrender vanity to the honor of your native land. As a preparedness measure never submit your arrogant person plus those ghastly spectacles to the scrutiny of a physical examining officer in an attempt to align yourself with any military organization other than the Red Cross. On general principles your lamps will be condemned and you will be assigned to the scare-crow division of the home guards.
