The groups of strolling Seniors each other pass, Memories and pictures of scenes gone by each sees. Some think of the gridiron's battles gloriously lost and won, Others of classroom precepts duly learned. They all are thinking of masters wise and firm, Of their Alma Mater now so proud of each manly son. They gather beneath a tree, in the west the sun sinks lower. Fellows, cries one, Utomorrowls Commencement Dayg Together we've worked and suffered our sorrows away. Before we go let's sing together one last song more! Against the orange sky the men's young voices ascend. The orb of the sun meets the line of the darkening west, And sinks below quietly to its rest As the song so fades and hushes away to its silent end. f Tags' lfoirty-twoil + ,. . ff!

In walked the students, as they had done for over a hundred years. Mr. Henderson stood in the doorway of Middlehouse, Q J receiving, greeting, and giving them their rooms. Some little urchins, who walked timorously in the portals, often grasping the hand of a protector, he guided in fatherly manner to their chambers. As the unreality of adjustment went on during the following days, these were the ones he gave especial attention to. For their sake was the long line of teachers introduced in Study A its ff. tl ff NY ,549 2 fb Q' -4,0 I Qfigfgibcrjiigy Hall the evening of that opening day, for their enlightenment did he explain away to simplicity the system of classes and periods. A rather motley array of persons, insignificant in knowledge and stature, a Senior of that year may have remarked. Yes, and not at all homogeneous were they. Young squires from Maine and New Hampshire mingled with aristocrats from Boston, New York, and Chicago. In the daytime they mixed with the cream of Providence. The straggling group was to pass through the melting pot of Moses Brown. Their Senior Master knew this, and took care to start them correctly. The group, the beginnings of the Class of 228, found five subjects to apply their willing minds to. A quiet minister's son taught them the pleasant ways of Latin nouns and verbs, indeed, to make it more pleasant, he allowed his pupils to sit in juxtaposi- tion with beauteous damsels in his classes. Perhaps he enjoyed seeing some with more fortitude than he had, for at the table, when he received feminine glances from a dis- tance, he would blush furiously. In order to relieve the humdrum of school life and to exercise his own mighty intellect, I am told, the year before this classls inception this same Latin teacher used to accord certain members of his own corridor an unusual privilege. Long after the bells had driven other scholars to bed, this man would secretly and illicitly play chess qt l:?uge lfaifty-lhree QilllllllllllllllllllllllllIllllllllllllllllllllIIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll 41 4 vvl 4!

All went well for a while, till our Senior Master's unerring sixth sense led him to the master's door. With awful majesty he opened it and gazed upon the quaking teacher and pupil. The pupils had another teacher from a little college in Pennsylvania. To them he showed some wisdom in matters of arithmetic, but often delighted them for an entire period with strange tales of rampant mill machinery and many other marvels. Another red-haired one taught them history, a blond, handsome man rectified their conspic- ousesf' and another handsome one taught them a good deal of English history. While an elderly savant would describe ameboid processes, some boys, I am sorry to say, would pass notes and converse with certain maidens, who had the bad taste to reply. Soon, however, one bad urchin fit could not have been the authorj was caught, guilty in the act. A threat of one demerit, however, soon had him in control. Outside the classroom many of these same teachers guided the pupils in sports. Most of the fellows took up tennis or football, two took track, one the son of a Prince- ton professor. Everyone worked hard under the tutelage of his coach, and the autumn air resounded with the shouts of Mr. Waughtel. He was welding new material to the half-team left from the preceding year. Names in the first line-up may sound familiar to some: Milliken, Breed, Towle, George Delano, the brother of Bill. George was quarter-back on the team, when he called out signals he plucked blades of grass with his right hand. All but two games being won, the football season was successful. Soccer followed, and soon the class began to realize how life hurries in school. After a bountiful prelim- inary Christmas dinner with tables apple-piled, they were all off for vacation. That spring they enjoyed a thrilling detective-story comedy of the Maine woods, produced by the juniors. Successful enough baseball and track seasons wound up the year, and after the grand ceremonies of Commencement the class parted itself. It looked not much different from when it came, but the seed had been planted and the good work started. It was on the road to fame. 1928 came back again- real Freshmen they were now. They found new men awaiting them in some of the departments. One was known as the man with a silver plate beneath the skin of his forehead. Another man taught them the mysteries of algebra. It was his boast that he never failed to work out the answer to a problem. Of course, when the problem failed to proceed in the direction of the answer, he could still show that in theory his method Tage thirty-fourj + QIIlllIllllllllIllIIllIIllIllllIllIllIllllllllIllllIllllllIlllllllllllllllllllllllf if 1 Qsiqlhaau 'U' I I fl Qvl ll'l7'gll,,, : lf?l I Q. :1gI'1ll' IU I 3 0 nf' ' ' x Q V D l Q 4 0 l I 0 ,QI 9 O.

Regrettably he concealed this fact from all till he had left school. Under the able tutelage of these men and others, however, the Class managed to advance a little further in the fields of learning. One of those who exhorted them, who had a keen, kindly, fatherly interest in every one, was the principal, Dr. Gifford, who shortly after was forced to retire after twenty years' service to the School. Sadly all heard the news. A collection was taken up, from the proceeds of which a comfort- able arm-chair and a handsome pitcher were bought and presented, as small tokens of the great regard all who were connected with Doctor Gifford felt for him. Another came to take his place, a man younger in years, yet wise and comprehend- ing. Pupils were attracted to him, were pleased by his democratic spirit. With busi- nesslike vim he took his work, decreeing several measures for the good of all. All hereafter took the trial college boards on Saturdays, Chapel began the school day, in- spired all, fitted them for the day's work ahead. Many other things did this man ordain, it was seen that the School would prosper as before. In spite of these and other great events, the inexorable calendar of the school year moved on unhesitatingly. The new principal awarded letters to the victorious gridironers, and after as successful a soccer season Moses Brown dissolved into individ- uals, who made their way homeward for the Christmas vacations. There ensued upon their return the middle period between Christmas and Easter. During the long interim some youths imagined that they wished a vacation from sober Quaker life. Three of them, one a blond piano-player, left one night for parts unknown. They returned, as they had planned, in time for breakfast. However, this they had not planned: they found the assistant headmaster awaiting them in one of their rooms. He was quite irritable, since he had waited for them all night. They were never seen again at Moses Brown. To relieve the tedium of the middle season in a less fatal manner, the Seniors decided to prepare a book, to fill it with many of their exploits and with a few imper- tinences. A political rally held in the School excited popular interest and approbation. The speakers swayed the people, amused them, but did not dent their prejudices much. Both national and state candidates were perorated over, Toupin, the Historian believes, held the imagination of all as the candidate of the gas-bombing Democrats. A straw- vote taken forecast President Coolidge's landslide election. The juniors amused all with a burlesque of juliuy Cae.wz1'.

It seemed so to Miss Pitman also, yet in spite of the untoward occurrence, she enjoyed the occasion, as all did. Afterwards the Freshmen essayed converse with their feminine counterparts. The Historian regrets the fact that he had a tendency to blush when savoir-faire was most needed. The excitement was soon over, and soon the Easter holidays began. They were over again about as quickly as it takes one to carry his eyes from the last paragraph to this. The usual last-lap-of-the-year editorial appeared in the Delphian, and the Freshmen knew from experience that the end, temporary, was near. The first junior banquet was given, and everyone did himself justice. Joe Freeman received the wooden spoon from a pretty girl Senior, and had his speech applauded throughout. The impressive ceremonies of Commencement were finished. The cars that had carried away the boys had left a coating of white dust on the shrubbery. Mr. Hender- son stood watching the help bringing in the tables, clearing up the debris from the Commencement lunch. He was pensive. The year is ended, he thought. As Vergil says, the year with its circling months rolls on, so 1928 found itself metamorphosed into the Sophomore class. The first night back the usual ice cream, speeches, and faculty were served. The faces of Mr. jacob, Mr. Howe, Mr. Paxton, and other long-to-be-remembered ones filled the spaces left vacant by departed peda- gogues. Adjustment to school life now had become easier. The Class was rounding out, becoming more homologous. The School experienced a rather disappointing football season. The high spots in the pre-Christmas section of the school year were made by the appearance of Oxford bags on a Senior track star, and of a light fuzz of new hair on the cranium of a mem- ber of the mathematics department. Nightly he might be seen in his room on the corridor correcting papers, while carefully turning his head, on which was balanced an aluminum helmet containing a buzzing blue bulb. Some of the occupants of the corridor had a desire for entertainment picked illegally from the ether. Not a few boys began to use ingenuity, long felt wanted in the classroom. Aerials were carefully concealed behind banners and picture mould- ings, ground wires attached to scissors were sometimes surreptitiously plunged into the ground after nightfall. So, finally, at the cost of a good deal of labor and ingenuity, the Tage tfairly-Jixj 4- QIl!lll!ll!!llIlgllll,gllllllgarlllgg-!,r!ug!IIll,!l!:lIIlg!-!l!l!lllllllllll!lllQ aansvnlllaafhgfayfnwglif n -l..'gl'a,-an ga lni..Q5 !X'wf'n':6.g -01 vi -z- 41 'ie 21 ' A--S' vw' me iw - .51-'4 . ,Q v. .S-fi'-5a.25 .,' -a.'a ea'1'557.

Some were caught, however, and others found it inconvenient to keep up the practice. Studies were improved as a result, and everything was up to the mark at the approach of the middle of the year. The Senior play was superb, and Mr. Koelz felt glad he hadn't chosen as a hero the fellow who departed from the School shortly before the play. In other things he wasn't quite so lucky, having to work for a day, a night, and a day, in sequence, before the play to repair the work of a negligent crew. Of course Christmas vacation was welcome respite, as short as welcome. On its heels came Easter, almost crowding out the junior plays - one artistic, one amusing. The scholars, denied social intercourse and food, were sensibly packed off to bed. After Easter many labored seriously every Saturday morning on Trial College Boards, while passing Sophomores looked on with wonder and awe. Shall I, some- time, sit down and scribble on paper for three hours? Is it humanly possible? Many a boy asked himself the question. Commencement came, and the blithe Sophomores went, pitying those who would return to tutor a week, to take College Board Examinations inside the portals of Hope High. Away they went, unaware that they, who were boys, must become men before they returned. The class re-gathered when leaves were reddening and cockleburs falling. Names were now in its roster that were to become famous, that were to be recorded in that Book of Fame, the Mosaic. With high hearts, all set out to attack the year and its problems. But alas for them, they found the girl students, who always lent a touch of Romance when all else turned prosaic, were gone. The corridor that once had re-echoed with shrieks and titters now felt the unwonted step of heavy men feet within its portals. What magnificent chambers the Seniors found awaiting them. Their abode was glorified with the name of Senior Hall , however, lest they become too proud, they found their privileges all wrapped in strings. Noise they made in the night to wake the little boys sleeping just overhead was returned to them the next morning with all the scrupulousness of good sportsmanship. Indeed, some of the more enter- prising of the little Lower School boys took delight in pushing bureaus about, or in jumping off them so that in the end as much matutinal slumber as nocturnal was lost. The juniors on the former Senior corridor took delight in having two rooms for ff fikzge thirty-reven QI4 Qi! !!.!'g,Q-l'a!L,'5 'El W'5!5!'!,lg!-'WP digg!-'I1QQl1'!l5l!

One chamber was dignified by the name of Studyl'g the other was the Sleeping quarters. Many were the rough-houses that were peacefully carried on there, so that the boys could arrive in study-hall drippingly sweaty, just in the mood for serious study and profound thought. The Class did strive well on the athletic field. Some of its members constituted quite important cogs in football. Johnson did admirably as quarterback, and Captain Gilbane was very ably seconded by Bill Delano. A large proportion of the scrub team was recruited from the ranks of '28, it did important work in fitting the team to make its season as successful as it was. At the end of the season Mr. Thomas gave letters to twenty-one fellows. Under the coaching of Mr. Hanscom the swimming team, with johnson, Curry and Delano in its ranks, prospered well. To soccer '28 contributed Squire, Delano, Paige, johnson and Porter. In study-hall the Classical Orchestra entertained with selections. Squire managed his saxophone capably, Kingman, Richardson and Wood made up the stringed depart- ment, Fielding played the piano. Of course, with '28's sterling support the recital was a success. '28 held a meeting and elected its officers. Rightfully johnson became president, Delano vice-president, and Louis Wright treasurer. Harrison acted as secretary. To oversee and guide all things Mr. Hanscom was chosen. The Class amused the school with a batch of three plays. Vilas shone as a bold, bad robber, Walter Deemer as a natty French military detective, and Davis pillowed himself to fill the role of a Southern mammy. Then at last came that life-saver, Christmas vacation. The interim began again, the famous Mosaic set itself in motion. After Mr. Paxton had outlined his plans for a magnificent Year-Book, the class voted to install William Speers in the Editorial seat, to have Dick Lincoln for Managing Editor, and capable George Read for Business Manager. Robert Rice was to make the illustrations. Track was in the midst of a successful season. Among those who ran at the meets were johnson, Freddy Burk, Eddie Wood, Louis Wright. Louis especially showed nice form on the hurdles, and was looked on as good prospect for next year. The Senior Play, produced in the Spring so that it might include members of the class who played football, was a four-act melodrama. Lerch was memorable as the lazy jailer. Spring vacation came and went. The students sitting on the hard benches in Tags thirty-eigfafl + Q'2'3Il'2P'g,'?5 ,52f5 W'H7'QSSEFPF2923252-!'!l!2l?222l125 a:,E!'11,-L Ugg!

Soon it came time for the secretary and the treasurer of the Class to seek out a seneschal caterer. The decorations were quite marvelous at the junior-Senior banquet, the food was excellent, the speakers good. Mr. Hanscom told a joke whose scene was laid in a dance hall, Bob Rice was toastmaster and referred to the speech of an aspiring school- boy radical a year before. Commencement came on a clear day, as it had for three years previously. Dr. William H. P. Faunce, President of Brown University, was the speaker. Blue skies arched over the luncheon, after which we left. But not for long. After a week's grace, we returned, in loosened bonds of authority and amidst summer zephyrs. All took and passed, or took and flunked, the awful examinations, then dispersed. The semi-final annual dissolution had been accomplished. The final year opened in September. The boarders entered their rooms with the comfortable carelessness that comes from long habit, and the day-boys entered study- hall and greeted Mr. Henderson in the same way. Those who were new to the School were affected by its simple, quiet dignity, and felt at home within its hundred-year-old walls. In every member of the whole Class there was the feeling of something nearly finished, that needed but one more period of working on for its finishing. He realized, in more serious moments, that work and play at the good old prep School had but a short length of time to be enjoyed and done. They keenly felt the loss of their former president, Don Johnson, who had left the School. The Delphiafz wished him luck, and the Class sought in its ranks individuals to fill his place. The annual trip up the Ten-Mile was forsaken for a football game the School had been invited to. We were sorry to see the old custom go, however, the camping trips of late years had perhaps become a little unwieldy. Those of us who have been on them can never forget them. The swim in the lake marked No Swimming, the upset canoes and occupants, the supper with its steaming coffee and hot dogs,-these things will always be remembered. Who can forget Mr. Waughtel ladling out coffee, as master of ceremonies, or Mr. Henderson supervising the distribution of doughnuts? Mr. Battey, being in the Middle West, was present in the first chapel only in spirit, but the school body was keenly reminded of him by his telegram, beginning: The sixtieth consecutive opening of my Alma Mater since I became a teacher there finds me absent in the West. f'Tage floirly-nine Illllllllllllllll llllll llllllllll lllll I ll lllllllll llll llllll I ll l'h?gU Eg.1:!M ECW! ll Iwi!

Quillan, distinguished himself by saving a boy from drowning. The event inspired many of us. The jazz orchestra started well, despite the fact that its first rehearsal sounded something like a conglomeration of wild static. Mr. Gray supervised the Classical Orchestra, which soon was proceeding very smoothly. In athletics the season started encouragingly, since Moses Brown won its first game from Central Falls, twenty-five to nothing. The season kept on in this wise, and wound up triumphantly, showing the School Team to be Rhode Island State Champions. In Alumni Hall two gentlemen from Connecticut amused us by performing various experiments with glass. In Y. M. C. A. the defaulting President provided an overdue service by reading from a book. Although he pronounced Hanthtopomorphicallyu cor- rectly, some other words rather threw him. Another amusement was the showing of moving pictures in French Class. Eugene Kingman afforded the boys a welcome respite from French grammar. The soccer season's two games were duly won. The football squad were the guests of Mr. Thomas on December third, Mr. Waughtel was presented with a token delivered by Bill Delano. Bill also gave a customary short speech. The unchristened jazz orchestra gave a small concert to the admiring students during recess. This was the first main event after Christmas vacation. Mr. V. L. Granville provided our electricians with chances to point spotlights at him, and our students to appreciate a few of the Drama's well-renowned characters. During an omitted third period we enjoyed hearing the Hampton singers. Our only regret was that they failed to sing to us that ineffaceably famed saga: Juber Dis, and juber Dat, juber killed a yellow cat to make his wife a Sunday Hatf, The election of the Momic Board officials had been delayed to wait for the elec- tion of the Class officers. Finally the election proceeded anyway. Editor-in-chief was the deserving George Whipple Porter, his right-hand man was Ernest Lyons. Walter Deemer was made Managing Editor. Kingman was commissioned to draw the Book's illustrations and to choose a troup of menials to do the minor details. As the worthy Delpbiazn says, 'Others elected to the Board were H. Richardson, W. Pearce, H. Graves, P. Cook, H. O. Lewis, R. Squire, H. Squire, F. Lawrence, L. Wright, J. An- drews, E. Wood, A. Paddock, Y. King, M. Hicks, and S. Mott.', The idea of having the Squire Brothers work on the same task suited the Class so well that it elected them to write up Athletics. We heard some better music, as sung by the Radcliffe Choral Society, at Lincoln Tags fortyilf Q Ill qgi?2QEFSQ,-g:?554w!'51a2E4'M!2'353-gig..QQEEEIQQEEEIQEQHIEQJIAEFQE .gag ', I '-2 ,216 10 www .

The program they gave us was admirably suited for the writing in of satirical comments. During the course of the evening an interesting discussion came up as to whether one was able legitimately to split an infinitive in Italian. One of the songs on the program was written in Italian, and we scrutinized it carefully. Mr. Howland gave us an interesting lecture on Whaling, and Dr. Dorizas enter- tained us with two illustrated lectures on Mexico and the Central American countries. Later he gave us exhibitions in the gymnasium of his marvelous strength in wrestling and weight lifting. Under the leadership of its captain, Louis Wright, the track team went down to defeat at the hands of the former Moses Brown track team. We were defeated by the Brown Freshmen. On the icy floor of the Auditorium our hockey team lost its initial game to Technical High by one point. Our score was zero. However, this newly formed sextet managed to win one game out of five, although a fine showing was put up in each. Sand had been dropping in the hour-glass all the time. The boys eagerly counted the days and crossed the calendar a little more hopefully each day. Suddenly scarlet fever descended upon the School. An impromptu vacation ensued, bringing joy to many, sorrow to those few whom the fever touched, fortunately not more than lightly. The baseball practice started amid rain, rain, rain. The Seniors sat down to the study-hall seats dutifully each Saturday and took the doom-laden College Boards. When clear days came for practice, the students trooped hither and thither, in groups and singly, to have their pictures taken. The great annual rush of getting the Mosaic together is on, feverishly the students work at their appointed tasks for the honor of the Class. The Mosaic goes to press, a great book, it fittingly extols the virtues of a great Class. In behalf of it, I salute you: Have the most enjoyable vacation, may your years in college and life itself be prosperous and happy!

He seemed not to notice that, however, for he was speaking again. Let's see now-there's your class president, Stan Paige.

Instead of tieing one game and winning all others, we lost one game to mar our otherwise clean slate. Tabor Academy of Marion, Mass., gave us our only setback of the year. The spectacular playing of the 1926 team was lacking. There was an absence of Rices, lngersons and Kelleys on the team. There were no individual stars. Everyone on the team was a real football player and knew how to play the game. Of course, as on every team, there were a few who were a little more outstanding in their play than others. Among these were three former interscholastic stars, Gerald Adams, a halfback from East Providenceg Leroy McDonald, a center from East Provi- dence, and Fred Mooney, an end from Pawtucket. As in former years Don Gardner starred in the line along with Bud Kelly, Nat Gifford and Fred Burk. Al Merritt, brother of the famous Bob Merritt, governed the team well from the quarterback's position. Dick Squire, a newcomer, was the best forward passer in the state and was an excellent runner as well. Morris Hicks, the team giant, knew how to open up holes and used his knowledge to a great advantage in every game. Last, but not least, we have Bill Delano. W'hen Captain Gilbane returned in the fall to tell coach that he was out of the game for the season because of an operation, a great question con- fronted Mr. Waughtel. Who was going to fill Gilbane's shoes? The answer was Bill Delano. Bill was elected captain and led the team to the top. i The opening game of the season, with Central Falls, proved later to be the one that determined the State Championship. The High School team claimed the High School Championship, so M.B. automatically became state champions. This game was slow and tiresome from the spectators' bench, but to the men on the field it was a good opportunity to find the weak spots. The score was very one-sided, being 25-0. The second game, with Thayer Academy, was the only out-of-town game. It was in this game that M.B. gave their first exhibition of fast football and showed that a real team was in the making. The heavier Thayer team was completely buffaloed by the fast shifty M.B. backfield and the low charging line. After several long passes had been completed and a long Thayer pass had been intercepted, the final whistle blew and M.B. was on the long end of a 19-0 score. The big game of the year was next. St. Georges arrived at Moses Brown confident of revenging them- selves for the last minute defeat that we gave them in 1926. Of course, the opposition was strong, but Moses Brown again came out on top. When the game was finally called after an overtime of about two minutes, M.B. was leading by five points, but defeat was near at hand. The timekeeper had forgotten his watch and St. George tried to take advantage of it, but was stopped on the two inch line for three downs when the time- keeper arose from his slumber and saved the day. The next game was most disheartening. It was played on a Friday afternoon and the entire team was tired out. Many of the varsity had just used their strength on term exams and were still trying to solve prob- lems on the field. Eleven men were on the field, but the M.B. football team was not present. It was an off day and Tabor took advantage of it. An intercepted lateral in the first half decided the game and Tabor returned to Marion the proud possessor of a 7-0 score over M.B. The East Greenwich game turned out to be one in which the varsity took a rest. The second team played practically the entire game and made a very fine showing. The much lighter but very fast E. G. team fell to the overwhelming score of 44-0. The final game of the season was a good climax to a successful season. Hunting- ton turned out to be all bark and no bite. Feared by all Massachusetts teams as a demon, Huntington was met here fearlessly. The first ten minutes of play decided the game. The Moses Brown team was eleven strong on the field, and walked through, around and over the heavier Huntington team. The visitors were tackled and blocked as they had never been before. Not once was the M.B. goal in danger and not once was a break offered to Huntington. The boys from Boston left this city in a sad and gloomy mood. The Quakers had given them an 18-0 defeat as a climax to a most successful season. Who was responsible for your championship team? is a question often asked. The answer is Coach Waughtel and his assistants, Mr. Young and Mr. Andrews. To these men and the M.B. student body belongs the credit. With only two letter men as nucleus Mr. Waughtel molded the state champions into shape. This team was spurred on to victory by the best cheering section that we have had in years. What was the cause of the success? It was cooperation between the players, the coaches, and the student body. It was cooperation that caused success, and in future activities, whether it be football, baseball, or dramatics, if the M.B. students and faculty give the cooperation they gave to the 1928 football team, success will always be the result.

On May 21 our boys traveled to Marion, Mass., and proceeded to take the Tabor Academy nine into camp by the score of 8-7. Our pitchers limited the Tabor team to five hits and were accorded fine support by the rest of the players. The following Wednesday we were defeated by our ancient rivals, Hope, 8-5. Barber pitched a steady game and was not hit hard, but our errors made it possible for Hope to score the winning runs. On May 28 the team journeyed to Windsor for a game with Loomis. With steady pitching and bunched base hits, Loomis came through with a 5-0 victory. In the final game of the 1927 season we defeated Suffield on our own diamond 7-3. Don johnson twirled for us and held the Connecticut aggregation to four scattered hits. The 1927 season was somewhat of a failure, but we have hopes for the coming year. At the first call for the 1928 candidates the following veterans reported: Paige and Gilbane. Among the other hopeful candidates were: Gardner, Austin, Delano, Porter, H. Squire, Anthony and Towle from last year's squad, and Pearce, Mooney, Lofquist, Flynn, R. Squire and Lynch, the newcomers to the School. The early season found us hampered greatly by inclement weather, which forced us to call off our opening game with Noble and Greenough after four innings had been played. The following Satur- day we gained our first victory at the expense of Kingswood. George Porter pitched splendid ball for us in spite of the rawness of the day and was ably relieved by Maurice Lynch, who pitched hitless and runless ball for the remainder of the game. Moses Brown played a steady game afield and deserved to win. On the following Wednesday we met disaster at the hands of the Brown Freshmen. R. Squire, Lynch, Porter and Delano all twirled for Moses Brown, and all appeared equally easy for the Brown sluggers, although Porter man- aged to check the run scoring after the damage had been done. The following Saturday the weather was still against us, com- pelling us to cancel the game with Huntington. That Wednesday, however, Central Falls, with their star pitcher, Molack, came to our field and returned home with an 8-1 victory under their pelts. Molack's pitching was too much for the M.B. players, and the Central Falls team did not lack hitters either. The season thus far could not be called a success, but better results are hoped for in the remaining games of our schedule. 'Page fifty-zwoil ?

This year the team has not received a single break. To start with, only one letter man returned, Capt. Louis Wright, our star hurdler. Other men who were left over from last year's squad were S. Wright, Phil Ferris, Wendell Austin and R. Schwarz, distance men, Swift, Syme and Hunt, hurdlers. The new men included H. Lewis, W. Pearce and Wells, dash men, King and Kellett, distance men, and Morris Hicks, M. Lynch and R. Squire, weight heavers. The season started off with M.B. taking a defeat at the hands of the Brown Cubs. In the hurdles and in the dashes M.B. was strong, but all the distance runners failed to place, with the exception of Phil Ferris, who took third in the thousand. In the hurdles M.B. captured every place. Captain Wright led the contestants over the timbers with Bill Hunt and Syme close behind. Horace Lewis came out ahead of Troy in the dash. In the 600 and the high jump M.B. failed to place. Dick Squire gained a point in the shot put. The second meet, with Dummer Academy, was heartrending. With all events run off and with M.B. on the top side of a 28-26 score, a member of the relay team dropped the baton and the team was defeated by the score of 31-28. Lewis was the star performer, gaining Eve points in the dash, three in the 600, and three in the shot put. Temple was the star for the visitors. It was after the Dummer meet that the team suffered a bad setback in the form of an unexpected two weeks' vacation called because of the presence of scarlet fever in the school. Four meets were called off during these two weeks. The next appearance of the track team was at the R. I. State Meet at the Cranston Street Armory. It was here that Moses Brown fooled the public and showed that it still had a good track team. We either had to win the meet or lose several trophies, including the Governor Pothier trophy and the B. F. Keith trophy. Coach Howe worked hard and obtained every available track man in the school for the meet, with the result that M.B. was crowned victor. The meet was a fitting close for a disappointing indoor season. Horace Lewis was again the star performer, capturing two firsts in the 45 and 300. In the former Lewis broke the record established by Bob Rice last year. In the first event, the 45-yard dash, Lewis placed nrst and Pearce placed third. Captain Wright, in the hurdles, placed second behind Cole of Hope. In the 1000 and the standing broad jump we failed to score. Lewis took an easy first in 38.2 seconds in the 300. In the 600-yard run the dark horse appeared in the form of R. Schwarz, who captured second place. Lynch of M.B. took the gold medal in the shot put. In the final event of the meet the M.B. relay team came in second. The first part of the outdoor season was a repetition of the indoor season. The first meet of the season was with the Brown Cubs. Once more they handed M.B. a severe trouncing. We were outclassed in every event with the exception of the 440-yard run, which Lewis won. R. Schwarz ran a very pretty race and finished third. Captain Wright hnished second in the high hurdle event and third in the low. Swift ran a fine race and placed third in the former event. In the hundred Lewis placed second, being beaten by inches by Hood of Brown. M.B. was once again completely outclassed in the distance runs, placing in none. In the field events Ferris placed third in the javelin throw, Merritt received third in the pole-vault, Lynch gained second in the shot put, and Hicks won third in the discus throw. In the annual tilt with Hope, M.B. again took defeat comme l'ordinaire. Lewis was the high scorer with 18 points to his credit. Captain Wright placed second in both hurdle events. john Balmer was second in the century, with Lewis first. The 220 was taken by Lewis, with Cook third. In the 440 Lewis again led the field, with Schwarz a close second. In the 880 Wendell Austin received second, and in the mile Phil Ferris finished third. Steel Swift placed behind Capt. Wright in the high hurdles, and Bill Hunt repeated this performance in the low hurdles. Al Merritt placed third in the broad jump and second in the pole-vault. Ripley captured third in this event. In the discus throw Hicks placed third and Lewis heaved the shot for a second. The track season thus far has not been very successful, but where there is life there is hope. Coach Howe has in the making a wonderful team. Although 1928 will go down in history as a poor season according to scores, it will, without doubt, also go down in history as a season in which a record-breaking team was born, for the majority of the 1928 team performers have still two or three years to remain at Moses Brown.

However, in spite of everything, the boys worked hard and gave a good account of themselves in the meets in which they did partici- pate. Fine spirit was displayed by the squad at all times, and in view of the fact that swimming is not a letter sport, the team deserves all the more credit. Five veterans turned out at the first call for practice, and this group was augmented by swimmers who represented other schools last year. After two or three weeks of intensive training our team engaged in a practice meet with the Brown Freshmen and came out on the short end of a 44-12 score. This was expected, however, and as it was the first meet it did not serve to dishearten the team in any way. Reed Anthony took Hrst place in the breast stroke, which event proved to be the best race of the afternoon, and Gifford, Stephenson, Dryden, Curry and Champion were the other Moses Brown boys to place. The following week the Moses Brown mermen journeyed to Pawtucket, where they handed the High School of that city a setback to the tune of 41-20. Anthony, Curry and Dryden secured first places in the breast stroke, two hundred, and dives respectively, while Glenn Hall and Mc- Clung, the Pawtucket star, swam a dead heat in the fifty-yard dash. The team showed great im- provement over the form of the previous week and was confident of taking St. Georges into camp the next week. Then for the second year in succession the Moses Brown-St. Georges meet failed to occur, because of a shut-down of the School for two weeks. Upon their return to School and with only one week's practice behind them, the squad traveled to Franklin, where they ran into defeat at the hands of Dean Academy. Reed Anthony won his usual first place in the breast stroke, and Hunt, Champion, Scott and Curry were busy capturing second places. With the losing of the relay our swimmers lost the meet by the final score of 31-20. Next followed the all important Brown Interscholastics, and once again we found the relay jinx on our trail, with the result that St. Georgels won the meet. Nat Gifford swam a wonderful race in the fifty-yard event and succeeded in breaking the record established last year by Don Gardner. The team received fine support at this meet. Let us congratulate Coach Hanscom and his boys, not perhaps on the record of meets won and lost, but certainly on the sportsmanship and the determined spirit of his team.

When the Thanksgiving recess was over a good sized squad reported to Coach Finlayson for the first prac- tice. There was a goodly number of veterans present, among them were H. Squire, Porter, Paige, Gifford, Delano, Snow and Kelly, all of last year's squad. With this material Coach Finlayson started training for the first game of the season, which was played with St. George's on our own field. Witlm a mere two days of practice behind them our players entered into a combat with St. George's and enjoyed a 2-1 victory. Captain Hoot Squire and Mott scored for Moses Brown, the former on a penalty kick. The game was close throughout, and the one point margin clearly represents the merits of the respective teams. Captain Squire was the offensive star of the game, while Gifford and Austin played a strong defensive game. Two weeks later the team journeyed to Newport for a return game with the St. Georgels eleven. The result was an exact duplicate of the first game, and the Moses Brown forward line played its same fine game. Snow scored for M.B. twenty minutes after the start of the first half on a corner kick. The second goal was tallied by Captain Squire on a pass from Horton. Stan Paige turned in an excellent exhibition at goal, making several fine saves. Each member played very well. Because of the intense cold there was only a handful of spectators present to watch the teams battle. After an unsuccessful effort to book a game with one of the local high schools, it was decided to end the season with the second St. Georges game. Thus, with the fine record of two victories and no defeats, the 1927 soccer season closed. Gauge fifly-eighlj Soccer Schedule Dec. 3 St. Georges School . . . Dec. 10 St. Georges School ar Newport .

It is still rather early for sound predictions, however. Although Mr. Erickson, the coach, has only two veterans to work with, he is getting into shape a good team. Captain Al Horton, last yearls star performer, is back again, and Phil Ferris, a last yearis letter man, is also back. At first it appeared as though Capt. Horton would not be out for the first few matches because he was troubled with water on the knee, contracted while playing hockey last winter. However, Horton appeared at the first match and played wonderful tennis, although his leg was still bothering him. Among the others who turned out for tennis were Harry Kellett, F. Quillan, Bob Whitaker, Frank Callahan and Alden Wilson. Of this group H. Kellett and Wilson are Seniors, F. Quillan and Whitaker, Juniors, and Callahan, a Freshman. Young Billy Ferris, a first former, gives great promise of being a marvelous player and likely to follow in his brother's footsteps. He is prac- ticing regularly with the team. The first match of the season was exceptionally successful. M.B. took Thayer Academy into camp to the tune of 7-1. Al Horton put up a wonderful fight and defeated Thayer's number one man, 6-2, 6-4. Phil Ferris easily defeated his man, 6-2, 6-O. Harry Kellett and F. Quillan, play- ing their first school tennis matches, defeated their opponents, 9-7, 6-4 and 8-6, 6-4 respectively. Frank Callahan, the Freshman wonder, had a little trouble with his man, but finally finished him in the third set. Callahan's scores were 6-3, 2-6, 6-4. Bob Whitaker received the only setback of the match. He was apparently nervous at the start of his first public appearance, and his oppo- nent got the jump on him. However, Bob put up a great fight, and his man had to work for his victory. The score was 2-6, 7-5, 4-6. In the doubles Horton and Ferris starred. The play was fast and both teams played great tennis. Ferris deserves much credit in this match, for Horron's knee was troubling him, and it was up to Ferris to cover a major portion of the court. After many brilliant returns and volleys, this double team took the victory by a score of 6-3, 6-2. In the second doubles match Wilson and Callahan very cleverly took their opponents into camp. The final score of this match was 6-4, 6-2. Although the team is composed of young players and has been greatly handicapped by the weather conditions, it is in all appearances going to have a fairly successful season. With Phil Ferris and Al Horton on the top of the list, every match is going to be close. These chaps are real tennis players, and it is going to be difficult for anyone to defeat them. Coach Erickson deserves much credit in producing the team. With only two veterans back, he has shown that a team can be found if one goes looking for it. The coach also deserves credit for looking into the future. He has placed on the squad many first and second formers who give promise of being great players in future days. The result of the efforts of Coach Erickson will, without doubt, be many championship teams. Tuge rixlyj- Q. Tennis Schedule M.B. Opp. April 28 Huntington at Boston . Called off.

P :iff :P ri 1 r il'n39 Hockey ISTORY was made at Moses Brown this winter when, for the first time, a hockey team wearing the blue and white skated on to the ice to represent the School. The organizing of this team was entirely due to the efforts of the students themselves, and much praise should be directed toward the group that brought it about. A schedule of five games was drawn up, and practices were in order under the supervision of Coach Curly Oden. The team received its baptism at the Auditorium in a game with Technical High School, and displayed some fast hockey. Although outskated, and with the results showing that their goalie was forced to make twice as many stops as ours, nevertheless Tech scored when the opportunity presented itself. Our players failed to make the most of their chances. The whole team played excep- tionally well, with Paige and Porter leading the attack. Next in line came the Worcester Academy sextet, and these boys were a little too fast for out newly organized team. Moses Brown threw a scare into the opposing ranks by slipping over the first goal, but after that the Worcester team had things its own way. Our team showed magnificent spirit and made its presence felt throughout the contest, but greater weight and superiority in team work eventually told. Still another loss was in store for our athletes when they met Tabor Academy on the following Saturday. Once again better team work prevailed. Our boys still had the spirit and their individual efforts were untiring, but the lack of cooperation was all too noticeable. At last, this hard working aggregation was rewarded with victory in a game with Hope High. Moses Brown was easily the better team, and the work of Paige, Maynard and Peckham was outstanding. Peckham, playing his first game, did especially well, having nine difficult stops to his credit. In the final game of the season we once again met with disaster, this time in the form of Cranston High School. The Interscholastic League champions were far too fast for our boys, who were forced to play defensive hockey most of the game. The outstanding factor of the entire season was the fighting spirit of our team which made up in many instances for the lack of practice which we were compelled to cope with. It seems that we should congratulate the team and that each one should make it his personal duty to see that another team represents the School in hockey next year.

The work in each department was done well and willingly by capable persons who worked with an effort to keep up the excellent reputation of the magazine. The student body cooperated by contributing articles to be placed in the literary department. The editorials have been very well written and have contained information well worth knowing. At all times has the general appearance of the magazine been excellent. From a financial standpoint the Delplaian did well. The business depart- ment worked hard to make enough to cover expenses. They not only accom- plished this but also had a little sum to spare. There were always enough advertisements to fill the magazine, although there were less in some issues than in others. All the members of the Board feel that they have gained much by their experience in taking active part in the work on the Delplaian. Those in the literary department, together with the members of the business department, have felt their time spent in a worth while fashion. The Board wishes to express its hearty appreciation to Mr. Paxton for the aid he has given. His unceasing efforts have done much to make the Delpbian the magazine that it is today.

In nineteen hundred and twenty-five the work was revived, given its present title, and again set forth as a record of the year's achievements. Since that time two more books have been publishedg and the fourth book is written by the class of 1928. It would seem that the Mamie is now resting on a firm and permanent foundation. The fact that at this time nearly all secondary schools of note have a year book should be an assurance of continued production, if only for the simple reason that no one likes to see his institution lagging behind the pace set by its rivals, for most loyal students will do almost anything to prevent such a happening. Moreover, as time goes on, the volume will become more and more of an institution and will continue to live in spite of any temporary indifference on the part of the students. Thus it is that the class of 1928 has undertaken the task of giving to the world this fourth annual edition of the Mosaic. In doing so it has attempted to equal or surpass the standard set by its predecessors and, we hope, has suc- ceeded. The staff has worked faithfully with the excellent advisory ability of Mr. Paxton and believes that this year's book will be worthy to rake its place with those of the past. The new Mosaic is now presented to the student body and its friends with the best wishes of the departing class for the continuance of the volume in the future, Tags Jixly-eiglotj +- Mosaic BOaI'd fditor'-ifz-Chief Jvlafzagifzg Editor GEORGE XV.

The performance started at eight o'clock and a large crowd was present to see the plays. All the seats were filled and some of the people were standing. After a few selections by the Classical Orchestra, led by Mr. Koelz, the performance began. The first play, a melodrama by Kenneth S. Goodman and Ben Hecht, was entitled The Hand of Siva. This was an Oriental play with a setting in India. The cast of the play included Walter Deemer, Donald Johnson, John Parnum, Hooton Squire and Taylor Phillips. The second play, Lijah, by Edgar Valentine Smith, was about a poverty-stricken judge, a Southern planter, who insisted upon showing his hospitality to two Northern travelers. The members of the cast were Rowland Crowell, Bradford Calef, William Davis and Kempton Harrison. Davis made a good Southern negro woman servant. The last play, but not the least, a crook comedy by Percival Wilde, was entitled In the Nerf, Taking part in this play were Stanley Paige, Edward Wood, Charles Vilas and Philip Ferris. Paige was a perfect Irish copper. The stage was well set and the lighting system was very attractive. The credit for this accomplishment is due to the committee from the class: George Porter, Stanley Paige, Walter Deemer, Kempton Harrison, Harold Richardson, Bradford Calef, Eugene King- man and William Davis. After the play the cast presented Mr. Koelz, the director, with a present in apprecia- tion of his coaching. Between the plays and after the performance the Banjo Club played several popular selections. The entire performance was a success. On April 4, 1928, the Class of 1928 gave the annual Senior Play. It was the comedy Clarence,', in four acts, by Booth Tarkington. A large crowd always attends the Moses Brown plays, and as usual Alumni Hall was filled to the utmost. The performance was creditably coached by Mr. Erickson. Clarence, an easy going ex-soldier with a touch of romance which appealed to the ladies, was very well interpreted by Daniel Dryden. The female parts were performed with great skill. The comedy as a whole was extremely enjoyable. The business affairs and the stage setting were looked after by the committee from the class, Hooton Squire, Samuel Mott, Philip Ferris, Eugene Kingman and Harold Richardson. After the play Mr. Erickson was rewarded for his services by a present. Between the acts the audience was entertained by the Classical Orchestra, under the direction of Mr. Robert Gray and Mr. Philip M. Hood, and the jazz Orchestra, under the leadership of Frederick Lawrence. These musicians also performed before and after the play. A fine cornet solo rendered by Cloudman lent variety to the program. Tage I61f'6l1lj'2l 4.- THE SENIOR CLASS OF MOSES BROWN SCHOOL Mrs. Martyn, a secretary. Mr. Wheeler ...........

This year, especially, under the able leadership of Mr. Gray, who is a notable musician in Provi- dence, the orchestra achieved much in the production of light classics and marches. Mr. Hood has also been instrumental in the leadership of the orchestra. The piano was successfully handled throughout the whole semester by Harry Kellett. The stringed instruments added to the strength of the orchestra, the violinists being Fred Lawrence, who has proved his musical talent, and Edward Wood, another able violinist. Harold Richardson and Henry Palmer also excelled in the use of this instrument. The cellos, played by Eugene King- man and Alexander Burgess, made this section complete. Hooton Squire, an excellent musician, filled the position of saxophonist. The remainder of the orchestra consisted of five wind instruments. These were: the cornet, played by William Cloudmang the flute, played by Knight Robinson, the trombone, played by Russell White, and the bass, played by Charles Vilas. Among other performances the Moses Brown Classical Orchestra distin- guished itself by playing at the Lincoln School Senior Play, as well as at the junior and Senior Plays in our own school.

Saxophonists, violinists, a cornetist, a banjoist, a drum- mer, and others were eager for action and organization. Fred Lawrence saved the situation by calling together and signing up an excellent nine-piece orchestra. This merry jazz team started to work with an honest effort on orchestration after music given them by Mr. Gray, leader of the Classical Orchestra. When the harmony started to clear up and six or eight pieces were mas- tered, the jazz Orchestra surprised the School one morning in an assembly. This debut convinced the student body that a very good jazz orchestra could be made out of Moses Brown amateurs. With the help and occasional coaching of Mr. Hood, and the never-failing baton wielded by Fred Lawrence, the nine jazz hounds improved constantly, playing now and then until the evening of the Senior Play, when their success was acknowledged by all their heaters. This jazz team was composed of the following: Fred Lawrence, leader, and Edward Wood, two violinists, Bill Maynard, a first class banjoist, who also played with last year's orchestra, William Cloudman, a fascinating trumpeterg Hooton Squire and York King, who worked well together on the saxophones, Tom Fielding, who rendered great service on the piano, 'lPansy Crowell, who kept perfect time on his drums and traps, and 'lCharlie Vilas, who added his tuba of many squeals and sounds. The year has been a successful one for the jazz Orchestra, and we hope that the work may continue with even more enthusiasm next year. Tage seventy-fowl Q'-l'iil'!!'g,'E-:J ,!

A., N interesting part of our Sunday program is our Y. M. C. A. meeting, which is held from 7:00 P.M. to 7:50 P.M. Sunday evening. A member of the Board usually conducts the meeting, although a student wish- ing to become a member of the Board is often allowed to take charge. The program consists usually of an opening hymn, the recitation of the Lord's Prayer, another hymn, a talk by a speaker who is on hand for the occasion, and a closing hymn. The address is the main part of the service. Our speakers are mostly members of the faculty, although men from the Brown Union and the Providence Y. M. C. A. are often obtained. Sometimes people interested in the School or ministers from near-by churches consent to address the students. The subjects of these talks are varied. Some men tell of their college life and experiences, others tell of their travel and happenings at home and abroad, still others point out the way to shape one's life. Also an entertaining subject of these meetings is the Blairstown Conference, to which we send delegates to join the discussion of the problems of everyday student life. This Conference is held the week following College Board Examinations. Thus the variety and interest of these meetings make us anticipate our Sunday evenings with a great deal of pleasure.

In competition for the Class of 1914 Prize for the Lower Forms were the following speakers, whose selections accompany their names: S, Reed Anthony- Anthony's Funeral Oration from jzzlizzr C'zzem1',' Arthur Martin- The National Flag' from the works of Henry Ward Beecher, Robert Colomy-'lThe Ballad of the Harp Weaverj' by Edna St. Vincent Millayg Knight Robinson- The American Flagf by joseph Drake Rod- man. From among these contestants the judges, Mr. Waughtel, Mr. Hanscom and Miss Sawyer, awarded first prize to Arthur Martin, and second prize to S. Reed Anthony. In competing for the Alice A. Razee, Class of 1875, Prize were the follow- ing, and their selections: Charles H. Vilas- A Scene at the Rainbow Inn, from Silaf Mmvzen' Robert Moeller-a selection from Dickens' Clarirzfmaf Carol, Edward Wil- liams- Happiness, from the works of Robert G. Ingersoll, Gordon Ingerson- The Cripple, by Guy de Maupassantg Clinton Williams- The Brothersj' by W. W. Gib- son. Edward Williams was awarded first prize, Gordon Ingerson second, and Clinton Williams was awarded Honorable Mention. This year it was found that for various reasons there was not enough interest in the contest for the Upper Forms, and so none was held. There were, however, four boys who participated in the other contest. These, with their selections, were as follows: Knight Robinson- The Death of Charles the Ninthf' by Maude Moore, J. Arthur Martin-'lThe Death of Abraham Lincoln, from the works of Henry Ward Beecher, Frank Swan- The Unknown Rider, by George Lippardg Francis Keeney- The Inchcape Rock, by Robert Southey. The contest was held in Study Hall at recess on the morning of May tenth. Each speaker was loudly applauded, especially Arthur Martin. The judges, Mr. Cate, Mr. Hanscom and Mr. Patterson, awarded the first prize to Arthur Martin, and the second to Knight Robinson. The contest was interesting and well appreciated by the School. It is hoped that there will be a large number turning out next year in all Forms to follow the example set by these four contestants this year.

A' fe ,sat ,e ats l l S Moses Brown Athletic Association HERE are probably many of us who wonder who awards the letters, who makes out the schedules, who elects the managers of the teams, and who, after having done all this, asks no credit and, indeed, receives very little in comparison with what they deserve. All of this work is done by no one person, as many suppose, but by several on a committee called the Moses Brown Athletic Association. The personnel of the Association consists of seven members, three of whom are from the faculty, one from the Junior Class, and three from the Senior Class. The nominations for these ofhces are made by the Association for the following school year and are put to vote before the School for hnal selection and approval. For the year 1926-27 the officers were: Gordon Ingerson, Presidentg William Delano, Vice- Presidentg Donald johnson, junior Member, Robert Rice, Secretary, and Mr. Waughtel, Mr. Pratt and Mr. Hanscom, faculty members. This year the student body elected William Delano for President, Nat Gifford for Vice-Presi- dent, George Porter for Secretary, Albert Horton for junior Member, and Mr. Howe, Mr. Hanscom and Mr. Waughtel for the faculty members. The main duties of the Athletic Association are three-fold: first, the Association makes nomina- tions for managers and their assistants for the School body to vote ong the second duty is to arrange the schedules. In this Mr. Waughtel and the manager of that particular sport make out the schedule as they see best and give it over to the Athletic Association for hnal regulation or approval. The letter games in which a player must contest to be awarded the insignia are then chosen on recom- mendation of the coach of that sport. The third duty is to give the awards. The names of those who have appeared in the specified contests or have scored a fixed number of points are given to the committee, which makes the awards. They also award a gold football or sweater as well as a letter to one fellow who, in their opinion, is deserving of one but who has not been on a varsity team. The Association undoubtedly performs work of great value to the School and is deserving of high praise for the thoroughness of its performances and its devotion to the athletic interests of Moses Brown. 4 f'Page .tevenly-nine IIIII I I I gm v l54?!5fRE!2FHW!f.5?I5 gl'!f3'92Inf5Q:2'l!!2l ':u23!.!!'2'!I'3Q lt' IW if Q in .JI 603 3 V L bl- ' 1 U A D- I Q6 DI 0 Quia g.,,,,.., Fw -' gum 'c , 4 6 s Oo lglllliliialiliwllllailllllllllllifiilgigglllalmillilglglalilzairillle:egl' 4 . - - - .. - - . - - ' 16 he i Q i .D ,C I l .
