UNIVERSITY 1 2.6 Hill Memorial College of Education 1871 is marked as the birthyear of Ohio Northern University. At that time it was established purely as a Normal School for the instruction of teachers in the art of teaching and the best methods of governing schools. As years passed, enrollment increased, more departments were added and the Normal School was placed under the College of Liberal Arts. For those completing a two year ' s teaching course, the degree of Bachelor of Pedagogy was conferred and for a three year course the degree Master of Pedagogy. Since that time the Normal School has been made a distinct department and at the present time the College of Education two degrees, a two year course in Pedagogy and a four year course leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Education. The work of the College is recognized by both the American College Association and the Ohio State College Association. The College of Liberal Arts The College of Liberal Arts originated during the transition of the Ohio Normal School into the Ohio Northern University. With a small student body and a scant teaching force at the beginning, it has developed until majors and minors are offered in all phases of Languages, Sciences, Mathematics, History and Religion. The expansion program has been effected by the untiring efforts of Dean Huber, and in a few years we will see the conferring of the Masters Degree in this department. This college in its purpose to broaden the horizon of individuals to develop the intrinsic value of high citizenship and prepare them for life ' s work has been doing for humanity a great service. Dukes Memorial College of Engineering Engineering has been the art of creating material things for centuries and not until the 19th century did it come into its own. Our 20th century has fully realized the value of Engineering Science and now we have Mechanical. Electrical. Civil. Chemical and Mining Engineering as the major group. Ohio Northern early recognized the value of this science and in 1881 Engineering was established as a separate course. In 1884 the Mechanical school was established. Then followed the Electrical school and later the Chemical department. With all these established the work began to build these courses and in 1903 we find them lengthened to ten terms. Under the able leadership of Prof. D. D. Ewing and Dr. T. J. Smull, the college grew rapidly and many other men well versed in Engineering have been a great aid to this department. The fall of 1925 brought another new era by increasing the course to four full years and placing it on par with other four year institu¬ tions. The college was fortunate at this time in securing Col. H. C. Boyden as Dean. Col. Boyden is a widely known engineer of great repute and adds considerable prestige to this department. The Engineer must be equipped to handle all problems of life concerning humanity. Being the man the world must thank for our present day con¬ veniences. he must be a leader in his community. He must be well versed in mathematics and mechanics, must know labor problems, and be well versed in current events in order to accomplish his work economically. He must be a great studen of humanity and create his achievements for the betterment of man. -Jll j r .Xii? ! IP ! page fourteen Warren G. Harding Memorial The Warren G. Harding College of Law Ohio Northern has long been famous for the eminence of its graduates in the legal profession. Many of the country ' s most able statesmen including at the present time three United States Senators, are products of this institution. The College of Law is one of the old departments in the University being organized in 1885, Its rapid growth necessitated the building of a modern structure which was completed in the spring of 1924. Beginning in the fall term 1926, one year’s attendance in a School of Liberal Arts will be required to obtain entrance into the College of Law. In 1927 two year ' s of Liberal Arts will be required. The faculty, under the leadership of that able jurist, William Price Henderson, has been steadily increased in the last few years, and is considered one of the best in the country. The purpose of the College of Law is to give a thorough systematic grounding in the history and fundamental principles of the law, and to incul¬ cate the principles of legal ethics and of the lawyers public responsibility to the end that the young lawyer may take his proper place as a leader in his community. I ' Pharmacy Building The College of Pharmacy Dr. Lehr founded the College of Pharmacy in 1885, shortly after it be¬ came compulsory to pass the state board examination to practice Pharmacy. The first Dean was Mr. Charles Ashbrook. He resigned after a short time and not until the University secured the service of the Hon. Brigam Young did this department make a successful showing. Mr. Young proved himself a great organizer. He was succeeded by David C. Moehler who remained at the head until 1917. In 1917 Rudolph R. Raabe. the present Dean, took charge. He has been a very successful builder since he became Dean. The many improvements are in evidence every where and to Dean Raabe should go the credit. He now has an able staff to aid in this work by having such men as Sleeceman. Hampshire, and Kuester. The work done by this department is evident by the good records made by all students taking the state board examination each year. The majority of high honors in the past years have gone to men from Ohio Northern. The aim of the school is to graduate Pharmacists who will be competent, intelligent and safe. The motto taught typifies the spirit of the school “Service.” «= } ' pa ie sixteen lehr Memorial The School of Commerce Lehr Memorial, which was built in 1914 in honor of the founder of this University, is situated in the center of the campus. In this building are found the administrative offices, the library, the Y. W. C. A., the Y. M. C. A., and the college auditorium. On the third floor of this beautiful edifice are the light airy rooms of the Department of Commerce. This department has grown rapidly in size since it has been organized and it has necessitated the enlargement of several of the rooms. Students com¬ pleting the Commercial Teachers Training Course are granted a diploma with the rank, Graduate of Pedagogy in Commerce”; and those completing the two year course are ranked Graduate in Commerce. In 1914 the Commerce Club was organized and was reorganized in 1924. Since that time it has been one of the live organizations on the campus and is one of the most helpful phases of the Department of Commerce to the students of this school. Under the guidance of Dean E. E. Long and Prof. E. E. Elliott, the School of Commerce has a glorious future ahead of it. Music Hall A. D. Julliard School of Music In 1879, the ninth year after the founding of the University, there was established, with Theo. Presser as director, a School of Music, later known as the A. D. Julliard School of Music, in honor of the late A. D. Julliard of New York, one of it s generous donors. Progress has been made from year to year in the nature and variety of instruction offered, and plans are now being made under the able direction of Dean Dalton, to associate more closely this school with the Colleges of Arts and Education. Assisting Dean Dalton, is an able corps of talented directors: Professors Lamale, Mowen. Willis. Brewer. Warren and Mazulla. paye eighteen Brown Gymnasium The School of Physical Education The School of Physical Education was organized under the direction of Dr. Newton in 1922. The comprehensive development of the program since the organization of the department has placed us in an enviable position among the colleges of our country. Two distinct courses of professional study are offered to those who wish training for the physical directorate and athletic coaching. A two-year Normal course recognized by the State Department of Education is offered. Upon the completion of this course a diploma is granted and the State Department furnishes a special certificate to teach Physical Education in public schools and institutions. Graduates of this course are now filling responsible positions. During the last year a second course of professional training has been arranged. This course covers four years and in the arrangement and selection of subjects compares favorably with like courses in the best institutions in the land and upon its completion a degree of Bachelor of Science in Physical Education is conferred. A large Freshman class enrolled and the most optimistic outlook for the future of this course is justified. In addition to these courses the department has general supervision of athletics, both inter-collegiate and intra-mural, and of the physical educational program required of every student in the University. page nineteen Campus, Looking South The School of Expression The School of Expression originated with the organization of an Elocution Department. Since 1887 Mrs. Mae Deming-McCoppin has been connected with the School of Expression with the exception of four years. In 1902 Major A. Cliffe Deming became associated with the department. He has served as assistant director since that time except for the three years in which he participated in the World War. In 1921 a Dramatic Club was organized which is known now as the Northern Players. In 1923 a National Dramatic Fraternity known as Theta Alpha Phi was organized in this department. It is designed to give special credit to those meeting with certain qualifications in dramatic work. These organizations are open to the entire student body. They have charge of the annual Commence¬ ment Play and stages productions throughout the college year. page twenty Jldminl f ration Albert Edwin Smith. D. D.. Ph. D.

At every step or turn she came to guide my wandering feet; For my happiness she worked and prayed, my cares were her cares too. There was nothing within that power of hers my mother would not do. But there came a day those growing feet would turn from the mother’s lead, And seek, with other children’s feet? new haunts in wood and mead. The mother still would guide the mind, but the feet would often stray Through the open door, across the lawn, and with other lads away. I thus had a child then a’leading me, the young leader of our small band, A lad of strength and courage bold, who dared to take a staunch stand. In those days of youthful play and fun, he marshalled us about, He said, “Go,” and we went, and, Come,” and we came, at command we fell in and out But he couldn’t do things that the rest could do; he couldn’t talk big and kind He couldn’t answer questions that kept coming to my mind, He couldn’t drive a nail straight, he couldn’t man the saw. So my footsteps turned to the carpenter who inspired my childish awe. 1 then had a hero a’leadingme, who my youthful trust inspired, A man who built great things of wood, whose sight my being fired, A hero who could talk as well, and sell his talents rare, T o be like him, to work like him, this was my only care. But alas for my worship — my hero, it seems, was found guilty of fraud and deceit My hero who built those structures tall, known and branded as a cheat. Gone my personification of worth, for vanquished was my knight. But in his place a’tripping came a maiden fair and bright. Then 1 had a maid a’leading me, a maiden good and true, A fairy in my land of dreams, with eyes of deepest blue; A rose she wore in her golden hair, a rose of crimson hue, She wore a rose and her name was Rose, and she was my rose too. For I wooed her in the garden when the roses were in bloom, And she promised me her hand that night, under the smiling moon. But before we were wed, an angel came and took her away from me— The rose of my dreams, the rose of my heart, the rose of my life to be. Then there came a river a’leading me, away from my sorrows sore. Away from the scenes which every day, saddened me more and more, Through forest and glen, past city and spire, it led me ever on. Now fast, now slow, now in, now out, a flash, and then we were gone. We were the victims of wanderlust, we were never content to abide. But eager to see what lay beyond, along the river’s side; But there came a day when the river flowed into the deep blue sea. Which ended the journey for it, alas, and ended it also for me. M I O=0 c =O p £ =U3«r page forty-five Then a dream there came a’leading me. a dream of wealth and power, A dream that soon became desire and grew in strength from hour to hour: It led me into foreign ports, I dealt in jewels rare, I followed in quest of my desire through castle and marble stair; Till at length the world called me wealthy and shrewd, though I was not satisfied, I had not collected nearly enough: I could gain as much more if I tried. But alas for my dream, in an attempt to double my wealth on the turn of the lot I lost, and with nothing of earth ' s goods left, a life anew I sought. Lo, there came an ideal a’leading me. inspired by a crippled lad. A lad of poverty, but a lad of worth, a truer friend none ever had: This boy who so quiet his suffering bore, had learned of the Father above, Tho ' the night that he wandered away from his home to the house of prayer and love Had cost him the use of his limb so strong, and a cripple made of him. At the hands of a drunken father, angry at the absence of Jim. But I forgave him gladly, for so Christ did you see, He whispered, and at that moment. Christ became the example for me. An ideal has been a’leading me throughout the recent years To live to love, to lift, to lull to rest, the world’s fast-falling tears. To give my life in service full, to those still in the dark. And scatter joy through all the world by smile and kind remark. It has taught me to remember that first leader of my youth. With love, respect and tenderness, my mother dear, in truth. It has given me an interest in those childhood days again. I now see in each gang leader, a potential leader of true men. An ideal has been a’leading me, and now I can clearly see In the downfall of a carpenter, a chance to save and set him free. A sorrow such as the loss of my Rose, leaves me no longer lacking in zest. ’Twas only a taste of life’s sorrow, as compared to the Savior ' s death. It imparts to my period of wand’ring. a feeling of emptiness thin. The wanderer true is he who goes to overcome suff’ring and sin. The dream I now dream has since become one of far nobler mien. And the folly of wealth for wealth’s sake alone, is easy to be seen. I have an ideal a ' leading me. it has brought me a friend sincere. Little Jim and I are inseparable now, and we’ve no time for sighs or tears: We are doing our best to climb the heights of success in its truest sense. And we lend each other a helping hand where the slope is steep and dense. And when we reach the top of the hill, we look for a steeper one To ascend anew with the vigor and zest we’d have if we ' d just begun. But content. I shall ever keep climbing up the pathway of life, For I ' ve an ideal a’leading me, the ideal set by Christ. —Maurinf Rudolph duc ation Edward Clinton Darnell. B. S., A. M.

A shadow falls on college hails, But golden memories stay Of those four years of smiles and tears That quickly sped away. In twenty-two we came to you, For knowledge we were yearning. Sometimes we shirked, oftimes we worked. And midnight oil kept burning. Through all the strife of college life We have acquired some learning. From pals so true at O. N. U. Commencement now does sever. After today, each goes his way; No longer we go together. Those friendships dear, that we ' ve made here Will last, we know, forever. T o Northern now, we make this vow, Our dear old Alma Mater, In after days we’ll loudly praise And ne ' er forget to laud her. Forever true we’ll be to you Each loyal son and daughter. Within each heart, as we depart, There’s quite a bit of grieving. Accustomed places—familiar faces, Already we’re bereaving. Now with a sigh, we say goodbye: Dear Northern, we are leaving. —Lee D.

As Freshman we merely looked on. College life to us was quite new. But it wasn ' t so very long ’Til the spirit of Northern we knew. We felt mature the second year. Our joys were many, cares were few, Firmly launched on our school career Our love for dear old Northern grew. As Juniors we appreciate, The responsibilities we bear. Duties we had both small and great. Opportunities quite rare. Next year our burdens will increase, And we will meet them with a zest. May our loyalty never cease. May it withstand every test. To the Seniors we bid adieu. May good fortune on you fawn, Where you ' ve left off at O. N. U.

Miller Dorothy Whitworth Donald Kempton President Vice President Secretary Treasurer The raising of the standards in the different departments, and making courses longer necessitated the organization of the Sophomore class which here¬ tofore had not been organized.

U. page one hundred ten a. Dr. J. Otto Newto n Dr. Newton, our director of athletics since 1921. is still at the helm in this department and has filled this important position in a very capable manner. There is no branch of the University in which more difficulties are encountered than those looming upon the horizon of athletics. Dr. Newton has been untir¬ ing in his efforts to bring Northern to the front, and the standards have been raised to a marked degree under his guidance. He holds visions of a still greater Northern and is to be complimented and encouraged in the difficult task he is undertaking. May he enjoy complete success in the fullfillment of his plans for future athletics at Northern. ratii one hundred twelve Ben Roderick Roderick Ben has been with us for the past two years as head football coach and the records speak for themselves as to his ability. Start¬ ing his career on the gridiron at Massilon High, he played brilliant football at Wooster, Boston Col¬ lege, and Columbia University thus bringing an abundance of football experience to Northern, and has made a worthy name for himself as a coach. His quiet, even-tempered, and unassuming ways have endeared him with the student body and it is with regret that we receive the announcement of his retirement from athletics for the more renumerative pursuit of business life. Here’s to you Ben, we wish you unlimited success in your new field. page one hundred thirteen Claude Sharer Sharer Claude is completing his third year as instructor in the depart¬ ment of Physical Education. In connection with this work he has very capably filled the positions of Freshman football coach, wrestling coach, and track coach. Under his guidance the track teams are stead¬ ily developing, and this year’s team will no doubt make a strong bid for Conference honors. He is primarily responsible for the intro¬ duction of the intra-mural track meet which is now an annual Spring attraction that creates much friendly competition and interest. page one hundred fourteen Athletic Board Newton, Roderick Sharer, Long.

This was his first year and he proved himself a kicker of high order. He should be among the top-notchers of the conference next year. He is fast and makes things uncomfortable for safety men after he boots the leather. Capt. Theodore Herge Tackle A good big man is better than a good little man. Ted was big and just as good as he was big. He knows football from the ground up and proved himself a good leader. He was a pillar in the line, opposing line¬ men bouncing off his frame like water from a duck ' s back. FIRST GAME—BLUFFTON—OCT. 3 The 1925 season was opened at Bluffton with the stalwart athletes of the Mennonite College. The Norsemen encountered unexpected opposition lrom these boys, and did not get down to business until the fourth period, the score standing six to three in favor of Bluffton at the end of the third. Anspach, our tufted Indian Chief, went on the war path and invaded the sacred hunting ground twice in succession. Seely made his debut by booting the pigskin between the uprights for the extra points, proving that his difficult field goal in the second period was the result of a highly educated toe, and not dame fortune. The final score was Northern 17, Bluffton 6. page one hundred nineteen Cecil Livingston Fullback Livie played consistently throughout the season and could always be depended upon to gain a few yards when most needed. He was a valuable man on the defense, being a hard sure tackier, and adept at analyzing plays. This was his first year with the Varsity and he should be hard to stop next year. Fred Garmon Quarterback Freddie fulfilled the fondest hopes of his many friends by the way he performed on the gridiron. He directed the play of the team with keen judgment, and shouldered a good part of th; burden himself, carrying the ball for consistent gains quite often. When filling the safety position, he returned punts in a commendable way. and stopped many runners where failure would have meant touchdowns. HEIDELBERG. OCTOBER 10 It was a cold and miserable day. this tenth day of October, and contrary to what one would naturally expect of a squad with the sobriquet Polar Bears the boys seemed unable to thaw out and get going. We were handicaped by the absence of Garmon. Anspach. and Capt. Herge. on account of injuries, and the reserve backfield was unable to check the onrushing Lutherans. How¬ ever the regulars after failing in a valiant effort to hold them on the one yard line, played them off their feet for the remainder of the game, although unable to cross the chalk line. Garmon entered the fray in bad condition, but played a stellar game, and had the T iffin boys worried sick. This is the only solace we get from this game as the final score was Heidelberg 7, Northern 0. auye one hundred twenty Russel Anspach Halfback Bud” was injured early in the season and did not take part in some of the early games. He was a man who put a lot of fighting spirit into the squad and played consistently himself. He was a great line plunger, known and feared by all opposing teams. As a tackier he was sure and hit them so bard he jarred their ancestors. Wm. Haase Guard When the victims cast their gaze upon Bill ' s be-whiskcred face you could see their hair stand on end. but when Bruno” hit ' em. be knocked both ends together and you couldn ' t tell one from th; other. He smeared many embryonic touchdowns at the line of scrimmage, and played fine ball throughout the season. WESLEYAN—OCTOBER 17 The squad accompanied by practically the entire student body, trekked to Delaware to meet our ancient foe. The score did not indicate the thrilling play exhibited during the entire game. The crowd arose to its feet many times to applaud the clever work of our backs and ends when they smeared the powerful attack of the Bishops. Those who witnessed the game will long sing praise of the way in which Garmon handled his team, and can never forget the long spiral flight of the pig skin as it sailed far down the field after being propelled by the unerring toe of Seely. The entire team could not be praised too highly for their work in this game, but the breaks were against us, and had Fortuna played fair the story would have been different. The final score stood Wesleyan 24, Northern 0. page one hundred twenty-one Walter Rohrs Halfback This flaxen haired gent played football according to the teaching of his profession, he just couldn ' t keep from rollin ' ’em and rollin ' ' em hard. Wally also specialized in tucking the oval under his fin. executing steps similar to a turkish dance and at the same time be on his way toward the goal posts He will no doubt be back next year for further performance. Russel Mason Center Mason in name was mason in fact. He was a wonder at keeping the line straight and assisted his fellow linemen when in jeopardy. He furnished solid opposition to all attempting to invade his private realm and will be remembered as one always in the center of the fray. ST. XAVIER—OCTOBER 24 Once again our squad inarched upon the field to engage in a three cornered struggle to wit: Norsemen, J. Pluvious and St. Xavier. Between the former and latter, it was an even toss, but the Musketeers came from the regions of the Ohio river and were more experienced in combatting J. Pluvious ' warriors, mud and water. Fumbles were too numerous to mention, but St. X. profited most in this respect. Individual play was out of the question, but Livingston was able to penetrate the line for several nice gains. The entire line did exceptionally well, but the game ended with the shades of evening closing upon the field, and the score 19 to 0 in favor of St. X. one hundred twenty■ two D ' HER Kenneth Graham Guard Those unfortunates who attempted to pass Graham will always remember the error in their judgment. He was endowed by nature with a generous supply of brawn and knew how to use it. With a little touching up by the backfield he could open holes large enough to send a truck through. A good man throughout. Kenneth Still Guard Still does not personify his name. He showed lots of action and filled his position well. Ever willing, ever ready, not even the enemy could hope to successfully invade his territory and they didn ' t. He will be back next year and should go good. OHIO U.—OCTOBER 31 Before a crowd of three thousand loyal sons and daughters of former days, the Bears hit their stride and started a winning streak that lasted through the season. The teams were evenly matched and was not decided until the eagle eye of Mason guided him to the pig skin on Ohio ' s fifteen yard line without an escort, so he politely tucked it under his fin and romped across the line for the only tally of the game. Rohrs proved a menace to the Ohio defense, as did Morgan and Anspach while Garmon and Capt. Herge proved efficient at snaring Ohio’s passes. This proved a delightful Homecoming, being our first conference win. page one hundred twenty-three Frank Morgan Halfback “Blackie” was a dangerous man on offen¬ sive play and made many nice end runs during the season. He was equally effective on the defense, being a sure tackier and one that stopped them without ceremony. He was dependable in all parts of the game and a valuable man to the squad. Captain-Elect Walter Boyer Tackle Walt played his usual brilliant game at tackle, and as a reward was chosen to lead the squad next year. He will no doubt prove to be as good a leader as a lineman, and that speaks well for next year ' s team. CASE—NOVEMBER 7 After the experience gained in the previous games the “Ben Rods” were able to meet Jupiter P. on even terms, and being evenly matched with Case a tie game resulted. The field was a vertible sea of mud, and Mike’s Band was forced to use boats when they appeared upon the field to announce the arrival of the gladiators. The Scientists could not work with muddy fingers but Ocean’’ Lehman was right at home and made some nice gains. Petro dis¬ played his ability as a navigator when he followed the coveted leather down the field and anchored his hulk around it and proceeded to drift across the goal before hauling down his sails. Nothing else to it but mud and water. Final score six all. page one hundred twenty-four S. W. Kormendy Tackle When teams tried plays through Steve ' s ' ' side of the line they found it tough going and few gains were registered. This was his first appearance in the Varsity role and every one was pleased with his work. He should make things hum next year. Carl Lehman Halfback Ocean was called upon in the pinches and always came through. He was able to gain ground consistently and upheld his portion of the defense. This was his first year with the Varsity and there will be much disappointment if he does not perform brilliantly next year. FINAL GAME—WITTENBERG For the conclusion of the season the Norsemen journeyed to Springfield for the annual turkey day game with Wittenberg. The day was an ideal one for a football game, and the large stadium was filled for the occasion. Matheny. Seely and Garmon were easily the stars of the day. Matheny broke through the defense of the Lutherans and blocked the first three punts attempted by them. The first one Seely scooped up and with a clear field raced thirty- five yards for the only score of the game. The game was featured by his excellent punting and the clever generalship displayed by Garmon. Although winning by a narrow margin the contest was not as even as the score would indicate. While the Bears threatened to score many times during the game their own goal was never in danger. page one hundred twenty-five Ames Campbell Halfback This was “Snipes” first year with the Varsity and he performed brilliantly as utility backficld man. He should prove a valuable asset to next year ' s team. Joe Petro End “Pete made his debut in Varsity sport with smiles and crashes. He was uncanny in piloting his averdupois to the proper spot, cooing the runners into his loving embrace and—then dropping them with a dull sicken¬ ing thud. Pete smiled: the play crashed. Few gains and several losses were the result of designing quarterbacks when they hit Pete. Oct. 3 O. N. U. 17 Bluffton 6 Oct. 10 O. N. u. 0 Heidelberg 7 Oct. 17 O. N. u. 0 Wesleyan 24 Oct. 24 O.

Trcbv © © © FRESHMAN FOOTBALL When the call was issued for Freshman Football about forty men responded. Out of this wealth of material. Coach Sharer selected a squad that furnished plenty of opposition for the Varsity. They took kindly to their task, and under the tutelage of Coach Sharer they developed into one of the best Freshman squads of many years. Their s is a difficult task, as they must use new plays every week and prime the Varsity for the various games. Ike Nuusbaum was elected to guide the destinies of the Frosh squad and performed his duties to the liking of all. Out of this large squad, fourteen were able to win their numerals as a reward for their untiring efforts. Coach Sharer is chiefly responsible for the fine showing made by the yearlings, and to him belongs the credit for uncovering many men that will carry the Varsity banner to victory during the next few years. fiag i one hundred ta ' entg eight Captain Dickson Varsity Basketball Team Newton Coach, Sweeney Manager Goldstein. Cohn, Baum, Shelly. Manges Campbell. Silbaugh, Smith. Dickson Review of the 1925 Basketball Season A formidable array of material responded to Dr. Newton ' s call for basketball. Captain Dickson, Garmon, and Shelley were the only veterans in the fold, but coming from last year ' s championship of the Freshman team were Cohen, a former cage star from Cleveland; Baum. Smith and Campbell, Ada high products, and Manges, Silbaugh and Goldstein. Quite a problem confronted Coach Newton in moulding these athletes into one of the finest team in the Ohio Conference. This quintet finished in a tie for third place, a feat that has not been accomplished in Northern athletics during the last few years. Three or four preconference gam es with such teams as the Kenton Reds and Lima Bantas, initiated the 1925-26 season. During the holidays Coach Newton took his proteges to Bluffton to indulge in a practice game to keep their hand in the sport, and ran into a surprise party, bowing to Bluffton College in a hectic combat. page one hundred thirty Having defeated Northern in Brown Gym last year the speedy Ashland tossers appeared following the vacation season confident of repeating the per¬ formance. Much to their surprise however, they were defeated by a score of twenty-four to twenty. The Polars defense proved to much for Ashland’s attack. Every man on the Northern squad played a classic brand of Basket¬ ball. Cohen, with thirteen points to his credit was the star on the offense and played equally well on the defense. The game with Capitol U turned out to be one of the closest and the best fought struggles of the season. Coach Katheman brought an exceptionally clever aggregation to Northern. His team jumped into a lead in the early minutes of play and was never overtaken by the Polar Bears. Coach Newton used twelve men in a vain effort to break through the strong Capitol defense. The game ended with Capitol leading 22 to 18. On January 14th, the Norsemen journeyed to Wooster where they met one of the strongest teams in the conference. This game proved a heated struggle from start to finish, with Baum and Dickson leading the way for Northern in the scoring. Every man on the team did his best, and Wooster ' s two point victory did not belittle in any way the prowess of Coach Newton ' s proteges. The final score was 27 to 25. Another conference game at home with Kenyon forced the Polar Bears quintet to their utmost to score a 33 to 28 victory. The game was replete with thrills. Some rare playing by Cohen and Baum aided by the clever long range shooting of Captain Dickson were the main factors in returning North¬ ern the victor. Heidelberg, a bitter rival, went down to a decisive defeat at Tiffin before the whirl-wind attack of Coach Newton’s athletes. The Bears won this game by the score of 31 to 12. A man to man defense pivoting around Cohen was a spectacle of rare beauty for the fans and turned out to be the undoing of Heidelberg. Next came the battling Bishops. By an outburst of speed at the beginning of the game Coach Newton’s hoopsters swept the Delaware quintet off its feet, leading at one time by the score of eleven to two. At this stage of the game Wesleyan called time out and when play was resumed the Bishops slowly took the lead and continued that pace throughout the game. Unaccustomed to the long floor, the Northern squad was at sea. Cohen’s injured ankle rendered him practically unfit to play in the game. Northern was unable to shake off its temporary lassitude in time to get properly set for the Otterbein and the Westerville lads romped home with a 38 to 19 decision. Cohen was the Bears’ high scorer in this contest, and his sparkling dribbling was pleasing to behold. Baum and Shelly were tied for second honors, while Dickson, Manges and Goldstein played a good brand of ball. page one hundred thirty-one NORTHERN Tv In the Hiram and Baldwin Wallace contests our basketeers staged a remarkable comeback, outplaying their opponents at every stage of the game. Baldwin Wallace was vanquished by a 44 to 22 score and Hiram by a 26 to 21 score. In the Baldwin Wallace game Baum scored 18 points and with him Dickson, Shelly and Cohen were the outstanding stars of these games. The feature of the Baldwin Wallace contest however, was a clean cut two plier shot by Ben Smith from mid-floor. On February twentieth the team journeyed to Springfield and engaged in a fray that was featured by poor officiating. The game resolved itself into football in the early stages and continued as such throughout. The final score stood 39 to 28 in favor of Wittenberg with majority of their points being scored upon fouls seen only by the referee. The second affray of the season with Ashland proved to be a repetition of the first. Northern won easily, the feature of the game being the excellent shooting of Captain Dickson. Only the regulars were used in this contest and they all aided in the scoring. The season was brought to a fitting close in Brown gym by a two point victory over St. Xavier. The visitors could not get their offense effectively organized and this resulted in a slowing up of the game. Coach Newton’s man to man defense in the final period failed to add much speed to the contest. Baum and Cohen with six points each tied for scoring honors. Shelly following closely with five points. Captain Dickson deserves much credit for the success of the team. His long and sensational career as a basketball player of the Northern quintet was never brighter than throughout the season just closed. His remarkable shooting was feared by the opponents at all times, and his leadership leaves nothing to be desired. His place at forward will be a difficult one to fill. The first year on the varsity proved a very good one for Ray Baum. His exceptionally clever floor work coupled with his ability to toss free throws made him the individual high point scorer of the squad. Ray took advantage of every opportunity and started the team on the road to victory quite often. Lew Shelly was a very capable man at the pivot position and made many contributions to the score sheet. He has been selected to lead the team next year and will no doubt prove to be a good leader. He is a hard and consistent worker. Vic” Cohen needs no introduction. He was an outstanding star of the Ohio Conference in his first varsity performance and deserves much credit for the Bears winning combination. Fortunately, he will be available next year and is expected to shine more brightly, which is asking a lot. Ben Smith played his first year of Varsity basketball this season. His performance at back guard was very creditable and his playing throughout very consistent. He will be with the team next year and should prove valuable. page one hundred thirty-two Earl Mange was the real find of the season. His speed and consistency were factors in inning him a berth. With the experience gained in the past season he should x a tower of strength for next year’s team. For Camp 11, Coach Newton had a reliable substitute for a guard position. Spil ” shows much promise and should be a regular on next vear’s team. Silbaugh started the season like a whirl-wind. Unfortunately, he received an injury to his knee in one ' of the early games and was kept on the bench until late in the campaign. .He will be with the squad next year. Indeed he would have to be a star of the highest rank to displace Cohen Or Smitf bur this did nor disronraop Ruhe Cioldsfpin He was out fhprp fighting ar one of the guard positions and showed well in several games. ill Hi iH Hi ( Qhfcl a( a ©Ya!

It was impossible to pick a first team because any of his fourteen men could step with the others. A finer group of athletes than the Northern Freshman squad would be hard to find in any school.

Cbaccy Bertles. Grimm. Jenkins. Boulton Brown. Livingston. Garmon At the close of the season the Theta Nu Epsilon team was the only undefeated team in the fraternity basketball league. The past season has probably been the most successful since the league was started. The close scores signifies the competition, and the sportsmanship and clean playing added to the success of the season. Large crowds were present at every game and cheered vigorously for their respective teams. Due to the strong competition encountered this year, the Theta Nu team deserves much credit for going through the season with a clean slate. The fore¬ most quality of the victors this year, as last year, was their team-work and it would be unfair to pick any one player as the individual star. Their fighting spirit probably carried them through to victory as much as any one quality. This makes the second season in succession that the Theta Nu’s were champs, having won the championship last year. Coach Roderick’s utireing efforts were instrumental in the success of the league and much credit is due him. We are sure that the student body looks forward to next season with great expectancy. page one hundred thirty-five ORTHfiRN h 1 2.6 “Tom’s Pets” Basketball Team Top: Franz: Tollman, Mgr. A. Smith, H.

Dunwoodic, Nuusbaum TOM ' S PETS When the Intramural Basketball league was formed last fall Tom ' ' made his debut and entered a quintet which he christened Tom ' s Pets. We feel that this team was very well named as they walked right through the other teams of the Campus League in a rather rude fashion. We therefore conclude that they were Tom ' s pets as they would not stand for petting from any other teams. Tom selected Nuusbaum, Smith. Livingston. Dunwoodic. and McElroy as his cherished ones, and they formed a combination that was unbeatable. The last game of the season was played with the Theta Nu Epsilon team, who were champions of the Fraternity League, and proved to be one of the fastest games ever seen in this class basketball. The contest was carried into three overtime periods, and resulted in a tie. the score standing at 21. The boys all received medals in honor of the successful season they went through. page one hundred thirly-six CAPTAIN ElGHMY Varsity Track Team Top Row: Graham, R. Bowers. Bowycr. Sillbaugh.

Clark VARSITY TRACK Due to the untiring efforts of Coach Claude Sharer it looks as though the Polar Bear track squad will cut a figure in the Ohio Conference this season. Last year ' s Frosh squad are back in school in the best shape and only one man from last year ' s varsity was lost by graduation. Providing the team is not handicapped by injuries, some record breaking performances may be expected. At the time of writing, only one meet has been held, that ending in a decisive victory for the Norsemen from BlufTton College. During this meet Bluffton was able to register first place in only two events. This tends to show the strength of Coach Sharer ' s squad. Carl Lehman was elected Captain and Max H. Aarons as manager. Meets were scheduled with BlufTton, Bowling Green Normal. Muskingum, Heidel¬ berg and Kenyon. For the mile and two mile events M. Anderson, R. Jones. M. Torigue. H. Manges, C. Merkle, G. Cullings. and F. Bowers are the most likely can¬ didates. Of this group Manges and Anderson are the outstanding men. both having broken Northern records during their Frosh year. With more experience and maturity, they are expected to win many points for their Alma Mater. The 100 yard dash will be well taken care of by Cliff Kerchner. Heft and Hartley, all veterans of last year’s squad. Matbeny. L. Jones. Mathews, Baum and Maloney will carry the colors in the 440. Maloney broke the school record during his freshman year and will no doubt repeat during the coming campaign. page one hundred thirty-eight Cross Country Team Clark. Maloney. Jones. Manges. Anderson. Goldwasser. Aarons Manager Another branch was added to the sport tree during the past year. Coach Sharer selected Manges, Anderson, Maloney, Goldwasser, Jones and Clark to form his cross country team. Max Aarons was elected manager and scheduled meets with Ohio Wesleyan, Muskingum and Dennison. We lost the first two by a narrow margin, but the boys came romping home in the Dennison match. This match was held during the Homecoming Football game and served as an additional treat for the Alumni. Freshman Track The Freshman track team appears to be very strong. It is a little early to make predictions regarding the yearlings, but it looks as though next year’s Varsity will receive some very good material. Grimm looks very good in the 100 and 220. Stoner looks like a comer in the mile and two mile events. A1 Smith is a likely candidate in the 100 and low hurdles. Craig shows good form in the 100, broad jump and high jump. Franz is no slouch when it comes to heaving the discus. April 24 1926 TRACK SCHEDULE Bluffton—at Bluffton. May 1 Bowling Green Normal—at Bowling Green May 8 Muskingum—at Ada.

This had a two fold purpose, first, to create and maintain an interest in competetive manner, second, to develop and discover new material for varsity competition. Each of the various Fraternities entered a team besides several non-fraterniety men entering for individual honors. After meeting with opposition the Theta Nu Epsilon fraternity carried home the cup which was offered to the fraternity collecting the most number of points. On their team were such men as Manges, Anderson, Eighmy, Dertles, Chacey and Shelly. The Delta Sigma Phi fraternity had a fine relay team and won the trophy offered for this event. Walter Eighmy had the honor of taking the gold medal which was offered to the person making the most number of points in the meet. $ $ ❖ G.

The game was played in a drizzle and after the seventh inning was called on the long end of a 9-7 score. On May 1, two weeks later, Capitol visited Northern and also took away the ‘’bacon’’ 3-1. The following day Wittenberg repeated by 10-4. These three defeats rather took the fight out of the crew but they had revenge on Bluffton, May 5, winning from them 6-5. The team had pepped up some after the Bluffton game, but again were the losers when Ohio University went on a batting rampage which resulted in an 8-5 victory for the visitors. And again we had revenge on a visiting team when Bowling Green was taken into camp 5-3. After a few days grilling the team started out on their first foreign invasion. On May 1 3, they suffered a hard defeat at the hands of Dayton University, 7-5. But the following day they had their fling at Wittenberg and took a stin ging revenge with a 14-3 win. They repeated the next day on Capitol 12-5. These two days of victory gave the team plenty of fight but when they met Bowling Green Normal at Bowling Green the following day they had the worst set-back of the season. Here they were overwhelmed 4-0. The last game of the season was played with Ashland at Ada and again the team suffered defeat 7-4. Although the team lost the greater share of the games played, much credit should be given to the men for the work that they did. Their practice periods were taken between showers and the team was practically new. Of the old- timers, only five were left. Three of the pitchers were new but under the tutelage of Dr. Newton and “Sonny” Winters were rounded out into Varsity material. Many favorable results may be expected of them when the 1926 season rolls around. p age one hundred forty-three ORTHE-RN Northern Managers Perhaps the most important, and least mentioned persons connected with College athletics are the managers. Were it not for these men it would not be possible for the student body and others to witness the many contests which apparently move along without effort. On the contrary there is an abundance of work connected with each game, and these are the men who plan and carry out that work in a way in which everyone is familiar. Northern has been fortunate indeed in having the services of such men as Moses, who looked after the business interests of the football squad: Sweeny, the basketball manager: Arrants who managed the cross country team and track: and Ault who are caring for the baseball interests. The importance of these men is not underestimated by the Athletic board, and they are each given the Varsity “N” as a reward for their services. page one hundred forty-four Tennis Team w ®),y o ln Solomon, Kaufman TENNIS Th ee Varsity men from last year’s tennis team reported to Coach Newton when h( issued the call. These men were Carlyle, Solomon, and Kelly. Kaufmar was the newcomer on the team. Tei nis as we all know is becoming more popular each year and will soon be a ma or sport on the calendar. However it is next to impossible for the players t a round into form during the early days of Spring due to the bad conditior of the courts and inclement weather, Th first match of the season was played at home with Bowling Green at home and resulted in a defeat. Our only win in this engagement was registerec by Carlyle in the singles. Th : next match was played with Otterbein, and the result was more encourag ng. We were able to register wins in all the matches and come home with a c lean slate. Th.; final match of the season was played at Bowling Green, and proved more disastrous than the first. We were not able to score a win. paqe one hundred forty-hoe Girls’ Basketball Team Top Row—Hoover. Edwards. Newton Center Row—England. Stepleton. Mckibben. Campbell Front Row—Yarn. Wilson. Kiblinger.

When the call for players was issued about twenty-five girls responded. Out of this number twelve were retained. At the end of the season eight sweaters were presented _ page one hundred fortg six Girls’ Basketball S) p The girls selected as their captain Amba Kiblinger, forward, and Betty Stepleton acted as manager for the team. Before coming to Northern, C?P tain Kiblinger played at Belle Center H. S. and was the star forward of K°g an county. The team came through their season undefeated after playing such teams as Lima Y. W., Bluffton, Ada H. S. and Alger H. S. The total number of points scored in these games by the Northern team was 103 as again st 09 scored against them by their opponents. With such a record and many pf the players remaining the prospects for the next year’s team could not be brighter. page one hundred forty-seven Girls’ Hockey Team GIRLS HOCKEY 1925 Much interest was shown by the girls in Hockey during the Fall term. The girls were not organized into regular teams but they played on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons. When not playing at Hockey they went on hikes. The teams were under the direction of Miss Verle Marie Holt, head of the department of Physical Education for women. Miss Holt has had instruc¬ tion in all fields of this work and handled the team in a very capable manner. No regular games were played but plans have been formulated for a team next year so they can compete with teams of other colleges. Top Row: Edwards. Detrick. Hoover. Seitz. Campbell. Wilson. Clear.

Kiblingcr page one hundred forty eight The Athletic Plant The Athletic Program of i3hio Northern University perhaps came to life in 1916 when the school was admitted to the Ohio Conference. This action came about through the work of several men who are yet quite prominent in the school issues. From that time to this, athletics have gained by leaps and bounds until we can well say that we are rated among the best in the state. But all this was not done in a day nor by any one man. Unceasing toil by a few whom we all know, and constant and loyal support by the student body and alumni have placed us where we are now. Tradition has linked us with other schools that have, too, gained rapidly in this great physical program. Tradition has placed many men w hom we knew in previous years on a pedestal of hero worship that proves the goal for many of our future athletes. In the spring of 1923 it became apparent that we must increase our program to meet the advance made by other colleges in the conference. T o this end a drive was instituted to raise funds for the establishment of a better athletic field. Students and alumni responded loyally and as a result the present field was purchased. Work was at once started to finish it in the ap¬ proved fashion. Football, baseball, track and tennis were provided for. Substantial bleachers were raised to accomodate the loyal supporters of the various teams. And provision was made for any further expansion that might be necessary in the future. It was well indeed that the future was seen by those who were fostering the program of the athletic department. The time is here when we must expand or go to the mat in the final struggle for college athletics. The gym¬ nasium has proven inadequate for the great increase in students. The field was unable to maintain all the sports that were being taken up by the school. Interest has been aroused again aiid the former patriots have responded to the call. We are to have a new gymnasium. We will have better sports. We will have more attractions for the new students. Work will begin during this year on the construction of the new gymnasium. It will be after the approved style with all the necessary arrange¬ ments for college sports. We are in the morning of a new athletic program at Ohio Northern University. The future looks brighter than it ever did before. We are assured that our teams will be of the best and their support will be better than at any other time in the history of the school. Tradition has assumed great propor- ions. What has been done in the past c an be repeated in the present and the future. Let us all get our shoulder to the wheel and help. Help to make this the best school. Flelp to make our teams the best. And the future will hold greater pleasure for all of us. a. -q _ rv_ page one hundred forty-nine In Conclusion Northern has completed another year in the field of sports and a successful one. Our teams have been in the thickness of the fight against College com¬ petition. Each team has fought hard to win and that is the spirit that every one likes to see. They took their knocks and gave them in a sportsman like manner. They h ve every where established prestige throughout the Con¬ ference by good fair play. Our coaches have worked diligently for better teams and have met with much success. The students as a body have been behind the teams in every sport, and with this spirit we will continue to have the best teams that can be put on the field. The ideals and aims of the Depart¬ ment of Physical Education have been to build strong verile bodies and manly character. Even though at times we have lost, our spirit has been predominant and this has and will take away the sting of defeat. Let us maintain this spirit as we did this year and each succeeding year will spell accomplishment for our teams. nmip nnr hundred fiftu ORGANIZATION Greek Letter Fraternities In order of their establishment Name Chapter Established Theta Nu Epsilon Omicron Omicrcn 1903 Sigma Phi Epsilon Ohio Alpha 1905 Delta Theta Phi - Marshall Senate 1910 Sigma Pi ----- - Zeta - - - - 1912 Kappa Psi ...

J. Weber Harold R. Sponseller Harold Mull Chairman Secretary T reasurer The Pan-Hellenic Council in the past few years has taken its stand with all the other potential organizations on Northern’s campus. The primary purpose of its organization was to take cognizance of and govern all inter¬ fraternity relations. To this end it has been highly successful. Besides this original purpose it has branched into other activities in the interest of Northern’s campus life. A plan has been adopted whereby a loving cup is given to the fraternity having the highest average grades per quarter. The fraternity winning this cup the greatest number of times in threr years or winning it three times in succession shall retain it permanently. The Council has initiated the movement for class distinction on the campus, and the code of Freshman rules have been put into effect. In the social life of the campus the Council has been very active. During “Homecoming Day” in the Fall quarter, it was arranged through the Council that each fraternity keep open house for the entertainment of returning “Old Grads.” A program was also given for their benefit, each fraternity presenting a small act. The annual Inter-fraternity Smoker was given during the Spring quarter, entertainment being furnished by the enacting of‘stunts by various organizations. It is to be hoped that the Pan-Hellenic Council will continue to function as well as it has been in the past. Everyone wishes to see a bigger Northern and a better campus life. The Council is the organization leading the field in accomplishing this end. page one hundred titty-tour ORTHE- Pan-Hellenic Council Ford, Codding Cohn, Weber. Kaufman Mares. Kyle.

The new organization has petitioned the American Society of Civil Engineers, the oldest and most influential engineering institute in America, and hopes soon to be awarded a charter. page one hundred ninety-thi American Institute of Electrical Engineers First Row—Heft.

Bi-monthly meetings are held, at which time talks dealing with electricity are given by various students. A smoker is held at the beginning of each term in order to keep up the social phase of the engineers education. page one hundred ninety-four American Society of Mechanical Engineers Under the honorary chairmanship of Professor Campbell the local student branch of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers passed through another successful year. The Society began the year with the following officers: Pres. Ralph E. Harrison, Vice Pres. Philip H. Hanrahan, Secy. John A. Schurman, and Treasurer Gilbert Strong. These men worked very hard for the Society and proved very capable officers. At the end of the Fall quarter Mr. John H. Seaton was elected to fill the unexpired term of Treasurer Strong who had left school. Due to Mr. Harrison’s entrance to the College of Law, Mr. Hanrahan succeeded him in the presidency. Mr. Theodore Spoeri was unanimously elected to the vice presidency. The Seminar hour credit which compelled the mechanicals to attend all meetings and give two talks a year was dropped and in its place was put a credit of one hour for attending eighty-five percent of the A. S. M. E. meetings during the year. This plan caused a temporary drop in the attendance at meetings but in a short time it had risen above all previous records. President Harrison and Secretary Schurman were sent as official delegates to the A. S. M. E. regional meeting at Altoona, Pa. On their return they gave a very interesting account of their experience.

McCann Stanley Whittlesey President Vice President Secretary T reasurer The Northern Society of Chemical Engineers is the youngest society in the Engineering College as it represents a department of recent origin. Early in 1919 Prof. Sleesman of the Chemical Department saw the need of such a society to bring the increasing number o f students together so that the problems of the industrial world might be discussed and incidently a better leeling of friendship and understanding might arise between the Chemical students. To such an ending the society was formed and much credit is due to the untiring efforts of Profs. Sleesman and Harrod. Weekly meetings are held in which students give talks, usually on some industry in which they are well versed and which the others do not know. Much knowledge is gained in this way as to how the chemical problems are solved in the commercial world. page one hundred ninety-six Commercial Club First Row—Marks, Jones.

The purpose of the club is to give commercial students an insight into business problems and practices. Practically all students of the School of Commerce are members of the club and the experience they have gained by appearing on the programs has proven of great value to them. Meetings are held each week and much interest has been manifested by every member. The club is a social organization as well as educational, and parties were held at regular intervals during the school year. A ym i page one hundred ninety-seven Y. M. C. A. First Row—Overmycr.

Austin Potter who acted in a creditable manner as our General Secretary. In addition he has been a member of the faculty of Religious Education. In the very beginning the Y. met with some adversity in the fact that the President and Secretary did not return to school which caused some delay in the perfection of the organization. For the first time seniority was considered an essential in the choice of the president. Dwight Solomon, a senior in the college of Liberal Arts, was chosen. As soon as he was elected the Y. began to function in a smooth manner. The attendance at the meetings increased due largely to the efforts of the officers. In cojunction with the Y. W. C. A. the second All University Mixer was held on the first Friday, proving to be a great success. A chess and checker tournament was conducted drawing attention to the Y, and evoking much interest. For the next year a bigger and better program is being planned by the new officers who are Mr. Harold G. Wood, president: Mr. Carl Eversman, vice president: Mr. Fred Ham, secretary. page on? hundred ninety-eight Y. W. C A First Row—Weible. Hern i, McArthur Second Row—Chiles, Engle, Boi ham, Herr, Dickson Third Row—Kennedy, Mrs. Whittcd, ippincott, Wilson, Moore The spring of 1926 ends one of the most successful years that the Y. W. C. A. association in Ohio Oorthern has ever seen. In the drive for member¬ ship last fall, more new girls signed the cards than had ever done so before in the history of this organization, especially was this true of the freshman girls, who had become acquainted with the Y. W. in the summer before they came to Northern, through the big sist er movement. T o the very efficient President, Rachael Lippincott, and her co-operative Cabinet, is the success of the past year owed. This group met every Thursday evening at six o’clock, with the advisors, Mrs. Mary Whitted and Miss Carrie Wilson, and through the little Circle of Prayer, and the faithful and earnest work of its members the Y. W. C. A. is now one of the best girls organization on the Ohio Northern campus. The Cabinet brought into use the new idea of not assessing the girls any definite dues to be paid, but let them give of their own tree will, and it has proved most paying to the local group. The past year can be looked back upon, and into each of the Y. W. C. A. girls life the National purpose of “to live unreservedly God’s law of love in every relationship on the campus,” will fit. page one hundred ninety-nine Homiletic Club First Row—Guras. Bitters.

Garn The Homiletic Club at Ohio Northern was organized during the fall of 1923. and has sought to promote the interests of the cause of Christ on the campus and in out-of-town churches where several gospel teams have served. The membership includes ministerial students and those who have dedi¬ cated their lives to Christian service. Meetings are held weekly on Monday evenings where the members enjoy the privilege of fellowship and prayer. “Man needs a vital faith placing him under the compulsion of a moral code, commanded by a loving God, whose infinite and beneficent purpose slowly unfolds through the medium of personal fellowship. Religion must stand for a faith in a controlling God.” © © © page two hundred Spanish Club Top Row—McNamara, Sponseller. Ashcroft. McCoppin. Kenyon, Breck Middle Row—Wilcox, Poling. Clear. Manges.

The members of the club receive not only pleasure but also instruction at the meetings, which are full of interest. At the gatherings, the officers and members are forced to speak Spanish only. Although this is our first attempt to organize a Spanish Club, much interest has been shown due to the indefatigable efforts of our instructor Miss Helen Willis. We hope that in the future years the club will continue the work which has started so well. page two hundred one Educational Association First Row—McCay, Tidd, Mustard. McKibben. Quinn. Miller.

Meetings are held each Monday evening at 6 o’clock in Philo Hall. During these meetings Superintendents from various schools of the county and other prominent speakers addressed the association on subjects of interest to those in the teaching profession. There are more than one hundred members, all of whom are aware of the importance of their profession and its growth, thus increasing the interest in the work of the association. The youth of the nation is in the care of the teacher for almost twelve of the most important years of his life. It is such important facts as this that the Education Association endeavors to bring to the attention of the teacher. page two hundred three Ohio Northern Pharmaceutical Association First Row—Raudcbaugh, Baxter.

The purpose of the organization is to create the highest standards and ideals possible for the profession. The meetings that are held at regular intervals are of an educational and social nature. They also serve as a means whereby the students and professors arc brought into a more personal contact. The organization has enjoyed a steady growth, since its origin in 1905 with a mere handful, to its present day status of 1600 members, of which about 165 are enrolled in the College of Pharmacy at the present time. page two hundred four Ohio Northern Pharmaceutical Association First Row-—Fall.

Under the auspices of the association a series of very worthwhile lectures has been given by professors Berger, Harrod, Hamsher, and by interesting speakers not connected with the University. It also made arrangements for an inspection tour to Detroit for the senior Pharmics. This trip included a visit to Parke, Davis U Company, the largest pharmaceutical and biological manu¬ facturing house of its kind in the world, and to Frederick Stearns U Company. Tours of this nature give the student a fuller vision of the great field of pharmacy and of its possibilities. page two hundred five Ohio Northern Pharmaceutical Association First Row—Roth, Althoff.

Instead of the customary exhibit, a series of lectures and illustrated talks of pharmaceutical interest were employed as a means of instruction for the pharmics and entertainment for the interested public. The faculty and student officers of this year hope that all members will remember that the profession is worthy of the best we can give it and that we discharge our obligations with honor to our Alma Mater, to our profession, and to ourselves. page tuJo hundreu six O.

Hall, the latter part of September. Here, the men students enrolled in the college of Law became more intimate and the smoker brought about a true spirit of friendship. A few weeks after school had convened, the Law Association began to hold its regular Tuesday afternoon meetings where the programs for the ensuing year were compiled. During this quarter, many cases were argued in the Moot Court which were a great help to the students in getting acquainted with court routine. page two hundred seven O. N. U.

It was during this quarter that many speakers were secured, who were most inspiring to the embryo lawyers from the standpoint of advice and general information. Not only did the lawyers help fill the Court Room to capacity during these series of lectures, but also the students from the other colleges on the campus took advantage of these treats. The Association was deeply grieved in hearing of the death of Judge Pettit, father of Prof. Pettit, during the month of January, and the Law • Association extended to his bereaved family its extreme heartfelt sympathy during that time. The officers of the Law Association during the Winter quarter are to be well complimented upon the way the affairs and management of the Association were carried on. Too much credit can not be given to Prof. H. J. Weber in his enthusiasm shown in taking care of the Moot Court work. During this quarter there were more Moot Court work than ever before in the history of the Law school. page two hundred eight O. N. U.

So closed the work of this organization for the year 1925-6, which can be said to be the most successful in years—both from the standpoint of Moot Cases tried and speakers heard. It is with hope that the organization next year, and in years to come, shall continue to bring about the good feeling of fellowship amongst the law students and help them in preparing for their future profession. page two hundred nine Physical Education Club Association Top Row—H.

This club was organized, principally, for a social purpose. The spirit of friendliness and good fellowship has been created among the members and the bonds of state loyalty are made stronger. The aim of the club is to keep alive the spirit of interest and devotion for the Keystone State and for our Alma Mater. page iwo nunareu eleven Pre Medic Association Emmons. Anderson. Jackson.

Membership in the club is open to all students interested in journalistic work. The club is active, bringing different noted journalists to speak at the weekly meetings. This serves to create and keep alive the interest on the part of the students.

In a conjoint meeting with the Philos during the Fall term, the Adelphians won the debate. A revival in the societies was instigated by Dr. Freeman in the Winter term which added many new members to the society. The society was well represented in the Washington Birthday program by Mr. Wayne Schwab. Let the Adelphian Literary Society live on and convince coming students that the founders have formed the “Ad Astra per Aspera” and that work must precede the realization of success. page two nunarea nineteen Philomathean Literary Society OFFICERS FOR 1925-26 Summer term I 925 Clifford Schweinfurth Elbert Eibling Sarah Bonham President Vice President Secretary T reasurer Fall term 1925 FIelen M Webb Guerin Buonpane Eileen Bliss.

A humorous pantomimic perform- ' ance entitled. ‘‘And the Lamp Went Out.” was one of the outstanding features of the program given. During the fall term the society revived such vigor and enthusiasm that many declared that the good old days had indeed come back. Under the efficient efforts of the officers over a hundred new members were added to the society. Feature programs were given, aided by a twenty-five piece orchestra bringing crowds and interest to the highest pitch. A girl tells us what to do. no wonder! The winter term continued to bring Philoism into prominence when the good work was continued. Short, but worthwhile talks were given at every meeting and several forensic contests were waged bringing girl debaters into prominence. An Oratorical Contest sponsored by Hon. Homer A. Ramey brings the achievement of the society to an acme. The year closed with the greatest suc¬ cess it has experienced in many years. page two hundred twenty The Franklin Literary Society McNamara.

TURNER Abe Friedman Treasurer Abe Friedman During the Winter term the Franklins were reorganized through the efforts of Dr. Freeman. About one hundred new members were taken into the society. The programs this quarter were indeed worthwhile. Several peppy debates were held. But the programs did not stop at that. Even though the Franklin Literary Society is known as the lawyers society many other colleges of the campus are represented in the membership. The society has a great deal of talent in the membership which was shown by the piano solos, vocal solos , and readings given at the meetings. This spring the society will be in the hands of the lawyers in keeping with the old tradition. The outstanding feature of the programs will be the debates, several of which are arranged with the sister societies. ❖ page two nunarea iwemy-one Men’s Debate Team Affirmative Team Marz. Solomon. Schwab Ohio Northern Intercollegiate Debating Association Dwight Solomon ------ President KENNETH STILL . Vice President Derrole Miller. Secretary Prof. W. E. Binkley ------ Coach The Ohio Northern Inter-Collegiate Debating Association arranged a very long schedule of debates for this year. Through the efforts of Professor Binkley new material was added to the association. The varsity teams were composed of experienced men who fought through the schedule like veterans and were on the whole victorious. As a result Northern stands fourth in the conference. All debates were on the question: Resolved: That the pending Child Labor Amendment should be ratified.” The Negative team has perhaps the most remarkable record of any debating team representing Northern for many years. In conference circles the team is undefeated, having won both of their debates by unanimous decisions of 3 to 0. It has a consecutive win of five debates and has lost only their first debate. The Affirmative team also has an enviable record. Northern has dual wins over both Kenyon and Dayton. tu.’o hundred twentu-twn Men’s Debate Team Negative Team Staley. Moreland. Winkler.

Hall. Brook The Dramatic Association of Ohio Northern University, known as the Northern Players, has. within a comparatively short period of years, attained an enviable position among the many and live activities on our campus. Because of the many benefits that are derived, it is. perhaps, petitioned for membership by more students than any other association or society. The meetings are held each week on Thursday night. At these the business of the club is discussed and then varied programs consisting of dramatic sketches, readings, and music are presented. Much is learned at these meetings. Perhaps the most helpful are the addresses made by Major Cliffe Deming, the director. Occasionally the club is favored by talks from various outside sources, and these also are most inspiring and helpful. page two hundred twenty-eight Northern Players Though many plays were reviewed and studied by the Players there was only one produced. Second Childhood. The Whole Town is Talking, the popular farce by John Emerson and Anita Loos, is in preparation and will be presented late in the spring. The summer quarter shall find Julius Caesar in presentation. The outstanding success of the season was Second Childhood, a brilliant comedy which presented many thrilling moments and some rare humor. Verle Wstw VLoVl, Vofk Owranras, Gatova Ckvws mv4 E A ' « ; ,t, A. Capell as the shining stars sparkled brilliantly, while the rest of the cast sup¬ ported splendidly. The play was presented to crowded and enthusiastic audiences, both in Lehr auditorium and at Brown theatre at Wapakoneta. Many offers have been received for presentation in surrounding cities and some of these will be accepted. Beginning with the summer quarter and continuing thereafter Major Deming will instruct a class in the Art of Play Management and Direction. This is the result of the many requests made by students for just such a course. This year as in previous years, all of the dramatic direction is under the supervision of Major Deming and much credit is due him for the success of the plays. His knowledge and ability has served as an inspiration to the players. Much also is due Mrs. Deming for her expert aid in stage settings and decor¬ ations. page two hundred twenty- Washington Birthday Orators Murlin. Schwab. Buonpane According to an old tradition of O. N. U. on Washington ' s Birthday four orations arc given. From the three Literary Societies and the Law Asso¬ ciation a representative speaker is chosen. This year on that day the addresses were delivered to a capacity audience in Lehr auditorium. Raymond Dacek. the first speaker and representing the Franklins, gave a fine speech on John Marshall whom he said was The greatest jurist of the Supreme Court.” From early life Marshall founded a habit of order which was one of the guide posts on his road to success. Querin Buonpane representing the Philomatheans was the next speaker. His subject was. Theodore Roosevelt, the most astonishing dynamic soul that ever entered the White House.” His oration was given with his habitual force and clearness. Wayne Schwab, the Adelphian representative, followed. His topic was Americanism. “Americanism he said, was a machine for building up progress, and represented justice, mercy, service, and equality. The Law Association was represented by Lee Murlin who spoke on Washington. Washington took the reins and gained control. Murlin gave us a graphic account of the beginning of a battle during the World War which was taken from his own experiences. He also quoted from Washington ' s Farewell Address that passage in which we arc warned against entangling alliances.” page two hundred thirty Ohio Northern University Band Blanden, Fitzpatrick, Simmons, Sandy, Fezzler, Solomon Milliken, Rinehart, Kennedy, Caldwell, Haagcr, Bush, Clinton, Rccd, Stincman, Hansaker.

The alumni had many opportunities to see the band in action on the trips that the band took with the football team, as well as at the Fairs that the band was engaged to play at. Appearing in Hussar uniforms of orange and black, the band was complimented for its showing as well as on its playing ability. Cricits throughout the state still rate the Ohio Northern Band as the best dressed and is far above the rest of the Conference Universities for playing ability. At the home concerts the Band was supported both by the students and citizens of the community. In all the concerts the auditorium was filled to its capacity. In fact the standing room sign was in evidence at every appearance of the Band. One of the outstanding concerts of the Band was over the radio at Cleveland, station W. T. A. M.

I I I I I i i i i i i She Did Her Bit Early in the spring a hen laid 15 eggs and in due time hatched ten pullets and five roosters. After several weeks of industrious scratching she made up her mind that they were able to care for themselves and said to herself: “It’s pretty early to stop and I’ll just lay some more eggs and hatch out some more chicks.” And this time there were ten roosters and five pullets. Well, she scratched for the second brood as a good mother hen should and finally decided that they no longer needed her care. “I’ve worked pretty hard this summer,” she reflected, “and I believe I’ll just take a day off and look up my first children. Accordingly she rambled about the barnyard, picking up a pullet here and there, but could see nothing of the roosters. So she turned to the pullets and asked, “Girls, where are the boys?” “Why, mamma, haven’t you heard?” cried the pullets in chorus: “About a week ago the neighborhood was full of preachers who were holding a conference at one of the churches and all boys entered the ministry.” “Say, Professor, I don ' t think I ought to have zero on that recitation.” Prof. Harrod—-“No, neither do I, but that is the lowest mark I am allowed to give you.” SPORTING GOODS Visit our new store.
