The Franklin Society, established in 1871, and the Philomathean Society, 1879, comprised the two oldest literary groups on the campus. In 1880, for the purpose of creating a medium between the two, the Adelphian Literary Society was formed by Dr. Lehr. Besides acting as sponsors of the 1-lankinson and Deeds Orator- ical contests and the Haskins Debate, the societies also took active part in the intercollegiate debating teams. As an antecdote to this serious acquisition of knowledge, the groups entered in intramural sports and enlivened the campus with their antics.

One of the long remembered customs of the University was the Enqineers-Pharmics Day. Since its origin lay in the rivalry be- tween the two rapidly qrowinq colleqes, combats between both individuals and groups resulted. In 1910 the leaders of the two departments were persuaded to bury the hatchet , which was actually done with pompous and impressive ceremony. For several years an anniversary service was observed in commora- tion of the lost feud.
