This act provided land liurpose of aidlns in the maintenance of col- the several States, for the purpose of in- 1 in Agriculture and Mechanical Arts, with- ut excluding scientific or classical branches, and in- hiding Military Science. By an act, approved March 6, ISGo, the State of under obligation to the United States by accepting and claiming the benefits of the above mentioned act of July 2, 1S62, and agreed to comply with all conditions and provisions named therein. John Purdue and other prominent citizens of Tippecanoe county as- sured the location of the University at Lafayette by their liberal offers of land and money. John Purdue gave $150,000 and 100 acres of land, while 130 acres of land and $80,000 more were subscribed by others. Through the provisions of the Hatch, Morrill, Adams and Nelson acts, Purdue receives annually $09,000 besides the legislative appropriations from the general government, and has non-productive property in land, buildings and equipment to the amount of $1,253,000. Instruction was first begun at Purdue in 1874, and the first class, con- sisting of one man, was graduated in 1S75, Since that time the develop- ment of the institution has been remarkably great and the stu- dent enrollment has increased from one to nearly 2,000, while the instructional corps has increased from six to nearly 200. Since its foundation the following presidents have directed the affairs of the university in a careful and conscientious manner: Richard Owen 1872-1874 Abraham C. Shortridge . .1874-1875 Emerson K. White 1875-1883 Richard Owen guided the university very carefully through its first two years. At this time there were only three courses — Science, Engineer- ing and Agriculture, the engineering course being a general one at that time and all work was done in what is now the Pharmacy building. During the next year under the direction of Abraham Shortridge, six buildings were finished on the campus, two members added to the institutional corps and the enrollment increased front one to sixty-four. During the following eight years, under the leadership of Emerson E. White, the university developed quite rapidly, due possibly to the introduction of military science. The courses were systematized, University hall and the Agricultural building were completed. The faculty numbered twenty and the enrollment 254. For the seventeen years following 1SS3 James H. Smart occupied the presidency and great things were accomplished. At this time the Pharmacy course was added and the Junior Preparatory course abolished, shops were erected, schools of Civil, Mechanical and Electrical Engineering were established and the Experiment Station was built with an annual ap- propriation of $15,000, besides a general appropriation by the legislature. It was during this period that the new Mechanical building, which had just been completed, was burned and the present one erected. During the past ten years President Stone has guided the university successfully and has seen the completion of the new Experiment Station, Fowler Hall, Control Power Plant, Physics building. Civil building, Me- morial Gymnasium, and last, but not least, the new and extensive shops which will still further increase the efficiency of the university as an edu- cational institution. q History of the Past Year Ml-: man of philosophical mind has said that history should be the statement of the effect of events upon a Iieople. rather than a mere record of those events. In siuh a combination of past performances and present londitions affording a basis for future predictions, it ould seem that the desired result had been attained. And so. in our own chronology for the past year we see past influences involved in the present, which will ill turn mold into form what is yet history unmade. For the last time returning in the autumn to Old Purdue and her fa- miliar scenes, we could not but note the obvious changes which have taken place in our brief career of four years. We could not but note, mentally, our first impressions of the campus, the buildings, the faces which are now so familiar, and the absence of the faces of some who have since passed from within our midst. We have seen the completion of more than one new building and the addition of much new equipment, all of which is toward the ever rising standard of the institution and the men which she turns out. We have seen on the athletic field seasons of varying suc- cess. We have contributed from our ranlcs to all the activities of a college life. So ends a brief retrospection. September of 19n9 dawned upon the Class of 19in as Seniors. The for- malities of registi ' ation over, and hav- ing become well initiated into the rou- tine of school W ' Orli, attention was cen- tered upon the prospects of the football field. But only disappointment was to be our lot for another and our hist year. The absence of former stars of the gridiron, together with other causes, seemingly unknown and irreme- diable, brought us no semblance of the old-time success of which we might well be proud. In mid-season Coach Speik ' s resignation was requested by the Athletic Board, and Coach Jones 17 vas put in control. The results were no mere gratifying, and at the end of the season the Athletic Association voted to grant no football insignia for the year. The night of September 17 saw the sixteenth annual contest between the two lower classes. The usual and ever strenuous melee being over, three hundred-odd painted and bedraggled Freshies were led in chains to Stuart Field where the customary antics were performed. The Tank Scrap, time-honored and unique, will ever hold its place as preeminent among college class scraps. Although now pulled off under a new system which is obviously the better, nevertheless in the minds of older classes the contest has lost some of its strong features by being under the regula- tion of a fixed set of rules. But may the Tank Scrap ever remain a fea- ture of the annual history of Purdue, and may lack of spirit on the part of no class ever let it die. Chief among the material changes about the campus has been the addition of four new buildings, viz.: Farm Mechanics. Stock, Judging Pavilion, and the New Shops. During the summer of 1909 the large stack of the power plant was torn down and replaced by a new structure, and a new Custodis met our eyes as we re- turned. In the faculty organization a few- changes have been made. The depart- ment of Applied Mechanics has been separated from the Mechanical Engi- neering department, and Professor Dnke.s. of Case School of Applied Sci- ence, placed in charge. Professor Han- cock left us early in the year to accept a professorship in another college. Dr. Herman Babson has been made head of the German department, while several other new names have been added to the instructional corps. The football season and Thanks- giving over, now came a lull in athlet- ics and other activities, and all awaited with pleasant anticipations the holi days which should break the monotony of class-room work. Then a brief two weeks ' respite; and the long grind, the last lap for us, was begun. With the coming of the basket ball season and the loss of one of our best players, things began to look gloomy: but the cloud raised after the first game, and the student body as one man stood back of Coach Jones in his effort to turn out a good team. Due to the efficiency of this ma- chine, I.afayette saw two monstrous Night Shirt Parades, one after the Illinois game and one after the Minnesota game. The team was so good that it was thought unnecessary t o have a parade after such an insignifi- cant game as that with Indiana. Our debut into indoor track meets resulted in second place in the Conference for us. The development of Myers, McWayne and Calvin, in addition to the old standbys — Hench. Richards, Gannon and Wason — has helped our track prospects wonderfully. Then came the warm spring days, and with them the call for baseball. There ar ' j several stars missing: but as we go to press no one doubts that Xick will be able to develope men to fill all the vacant places, and natu- rally w ' e look for a comfortable place near the top of the list when the But the im))ression should not be gained that athletics receive all our attention, for such is far from the real facts of the case. Throughout the year we have had from time to time the pleasure of listening to many of the foremost men of the country upon various subjects. And nside from lectures of a more or less technical nature, through the good offices of the Purdue Lecture Course, we have had the opportunity of hearing many men of world-wide fame. Among our Uiusical organizations the band has played a very impor- tant part, and has won only praise from every source. The selection of Mr. Emrick as director, after his leadership for the four years while he was a student in the University, has made the high standard of the organi- zation assured. While the Glee and Mandolin clubs have not been very active durin;; the year, the Orchestra has played its usual important part in the musical programs of the year. Along dramatic lines, the Harlequin Club has had the most successful season in its history. The City Chap, George Ade ' s latest musical comedy, was presented to three record-break- ing houses in Lafayette: and the performance at Indianapolis was in every sense a hit. With tlie opening of spring and all its accompanying activities, then we first began to realize that our college careers were nearing the end. Enjoying for the last time the athletic events, the convocation exercises, the 1911 Junior Prom, and the various other social and entertaining fea- tures, we say goodby, for the last time as students, to the scenes which fo.- four brief years have been so closely interwoven with our lives. So has closed the year 1909-10 : and we can safely say that it has been the most enjo ablc of our college years, and one of the most brilliant and successful in the history of Purdue.

In 1SC9 a change in this college was made possible by donations of John Purdue and others, the new institution being dubbed Purdue Uni- ts benefactor, and including in its curriculum the me- is agriculture. From the Mechanic Arts grew our Along with the rest of the University, ived its first great impulse under the Mechanical Mechanical Engineering at Purdue attempts to give. first a solid theoretical foundation and then as much jiractical application as time will admit. This year marks the initiation of a new subject, The Theory of Gas Engine Design and Operation : and tlie fact that Professor Ludy has charge of the course insures its suc- cess. This move, however, left the Mechanics department without a head; so Professor Dukes was imported from Case School of Applied Science, and placed in charge of the department. At present the Mechanical Laboratory is crowded beyond its capacity. In some cases the engines are so close together that the students are handicapped considerably when trying to test them. Next year this will all be eliminated, by extending the Engineering Laboratory into the space at present occupied by the Practical Mechanics department. Each year engines have been added, until now there is not a single foot left which does not support a steam engine, steam turbine, gas engine, air com- pressor, pump, condenser or some other piece of apparatus. The latest addition is the engines from a compound Baldwin locomotive. Their power is absorbed by two of the largest prony brakes in existence. „. • I The Electrical Engineering School secured a new lab- oratory first, and now has plenty of room for generators, motors, switchboards and other apparatus. One of the conspicuous adorn- ments is the large interurban car which occupies the east end of the lab- oratory. Many spare moments are spent on the overhead traveling crane, which is made to go through all sorts of maneuvers, in transporting chairs and small boxes about the laboratory. The practical Telephone depart- ment still holds out in the thin atmosphere of the upper regions. A visitor is impressed most by the size of the laboratories and hum of the machines; but any Senior Electrical could tell of more weary hours spent in poring over abstract theories, than spent in operating electrical machinery. Civil The Civil School is. in many ways, not the least of the three. They originated the idea that in union there is strength; and at almost any class meeting that idea may be seen cropping out. the beauty of the scheme being that it works. By this time the Civils have become well settled in their compara- tively new building, and are progressing so rapidly along all lines that they are on equal terms with any like school in the country. They have as good a corps of instructors as any other of the schools in the Univer- sity. A very popular branch of the subject, which has developed recently, is Sanitary Engineering. The graduated students are making good, and there is a demand for more of them. Chemical Purdue offered in the school ye indergraduate stu cal Engineering. ; first course in Chemical Engineering of 190G-1907. Those who complete the receive the degree of Bachelor of Sci- Although this department has never been organized formally into so-called School, as have the departments of Mechanical, Electrical an Civil Engineering, yet it is recognized as being on practically the sani basis. At present Prof. P. N. Evans, of the Chemistry department, is i charge of the work in Chemical Engineering. The course is designed to prepare men for those commercial Industrie wliich involve chemical operations on a large scale; and therefore not onl the principles of Chemistry are emphasized, but also those of Mechanics and Electrical Engineering. During the first two years the students r ceive about the same work as those in the Mechanical and Electrical d partnients. In the Junior and Senior years the course includes the fund; mental work of the other engineering departments. Graduates may expect to begin work in the Chemical Laboratorie but later to enter the works as chemical engineers; this experience is tl: best preparation for subsequent connection with the management.

' fJ C The Purdue Alumni Association AST June there were 250 alumni here for Commence- ment, the largest number being from the class of 190fi. The business transacted at the regular meeting of the Alumni Association consisted of routine work, such as the hearing of reports of standing committees and of reijresentatives of local associations. The chief fea- ture, however, was the election of our first Alumni Trustee, Mr. George Ade. Ever since The Fair Co-Ed Mr. Ade has been the patron saint of the Harlequin Club, and of the undergradu- ates in general. The members of the class of 1910 may felicitate them- selves upon being the first class to be graduated from the University under his trusteeship. Among other matters, the Alumni Ring was offi- cially adopted, as was the Purdue Song, Back to Old Purdue. The Alumni Magazine was discussed, but no action was taken, it being the sense of the meeting that there was not sufficient interest shown. The election of officers resulted as follows: Carolyn E. Shoemaker, ' 88, President; J. D Hoffman, ' 90, Vice-President; R. B. Trueblood, ' 02, Secretary; W. M. Nye ' 00, Treasurer. From the Treasurer ' s report of .June, 1909, it was learned that the As sociation had at that time $800 loaned on notes bearing six per cent, in terest. This money is loaned in the form of scholarships of $100 each For each scholarship the student beneficiary gives three notes: one for $33 payable one year after graduation; one for $33, payable two years after graduation; and one for $31. payable three years after graduation. This $800 is distributed among six students, indicating that in several cases the Executive Committee has deemed it advisable to grant more than one scholarship to a student. So tar no money has been lost through a de- faulted payment. These scholarships are awarded by the Executive Com- mittee as fast as money is available. They are given, preferably, to seniors whose standing is such that the members of the Committee are reasonably sure that they can complete their course. The character of the applicant, his aims, and what he has done toward paying his own way, are also taken into consideration in making the award. In addition to the $800 in notes, the Association had on hand $76.88 in cash, making the total assets $876.38. A few words more on the matter of scolarships. Last year there were five applicants for the available scholarship. This means that four men had to be denied help. When we consider that there are at present over 3,000 graduates of Purdue, and that there are only 250 active members of the Alumni Association, we feel impelled to ask, Where is the Purdue spirit? This state of affairs is due partly to a misunderstanding. Many alumni have felt that membership in a Local Association entitled them to membership in the General Association. This, however, is a mistake. The Constitution reads: The annual dues for members who pay through local chapters shall be twenty-five cents. These dues shall be forwarded by the Treasurer of the Local Association to the Treasurer of the General Asso- ciation. Greater and more varied demands are being made upon us every day. In this connection 1 beg to quote from an article by President Stone. 48 which was prepared at the request of the Executive Committee for inser- tion in a bulletin to be issued to the alumni. The extract is as follows: The University has a right to expect much from its alumni in many ways: in its defense, in its support, in kindly advice and criticism, and in the endorsements of its efforts to achieve higher and better things. Evidences of this new and broader interest are apparent. The appoint- ment of a graduate to the Board of Trustees is an important event in this connection. But it is important that this new interest be based upon a full knowledge of. and sympathy with, the University at present, and with large conception of its future, else it may hinder rather than help toward better things. In closing. 1 shall take it upon myself to prescribe the duties of the class of 1910: First, come out to the campus lunch, come one. come all: secondly, as soon as you are permanently located, whether in Mexico, in Cuba, or in the Panama, rustle around until you find another Purdue man and form a Local Association; and, thirdly, affiliate with the General Association by sending in your name and your dues. And now for a couple of Dont ' s. Don ' t ever get so busy as to force us, when we issue an alumni bulletin, to print unknown where your address ought to be. Don ' t ever fall to pack your suitcase at commencement time, every year if possible, once in every five years at least, with this inscription after your initials, where in bygone days the P. U. used to be: Back to old PunUie. ■s.s. General Alumni Association C. E. SlIOEMAKKR J. D. HoFrM. . LOCAL ASSOCIATION- OF CHICAGO. John Gillette Roberts, ' 94 President Louis Joseph Flint.

Con- sulting Agriculturist of the Purdue E. periment Station Indiana Farmers ' Institute At the present time the Indiana Farmers ' Institute is under control of the State and is governed by the Board of Trustees and faculty of the School of Agriculture of Purdue University. Each year in October a Normal School is held at the University for the Institute workers and speakers, in which the course of work to be pursued during the following year is outlined and discussed. In this manner the different Institutes throughout the State are enabled to work in harmony with one another and produce more efficient results. Since the Institutes have received State support, results have been produced that have never been paralleled elsewhere in agricultural devel- opment. One or more Institutes are held each winter in every county throughout the State, and these are largely attended. The results are improved conditions in the homes and on the farms. The work of the year is planned and carried out in a scientific manner, the soil and live- stock are better cared for and are productive of greater yields. With the ever-advancing demand for agricultural products, this means of obtaining knowledge is of great value to the farmer and has proven an excellent investment on the part of the State. The Farmers ' Short Course The Farmers ' Short Course in Agriculture, popularly known as the Corn School, has for the past eight years been held at the University in connection with the State Corn Show. At these meetings the farmers are enabled to obtain instruction in the modern methods of agriculture and to observe the results of the work as carried on by the Station and University. Prominent agricultural educators from all over the country are present and address the meetings. Special attention is paid to corn judging and culture, and to this fact may perhaps be attributed the won- derful success of Indiana corn growers in the last few years, when over eighty per cent of the winnin.ss at the National Corn Show have come The Winter School of Agriculture The Winter School of Agriculture consists of an eight weeks ' course of instruction in Agriculture and Horticulture, Animal Husbandry, Dairy- ing and Household Economics. This course is designed to meet the needs of those who lack the necessary preparation to enter in the regular courses or for those who are unable to attend during the whole year. Tlie instruction given is thoroughly practical in every detail and consists of class-room and laboratory work accompanied by lectures and demonstrations by the instructors. The School is now in its twenty-second year and is steadily increasing in popularity. Many of the students become Interested and return in a year or two to take up the regular University rour.se. fe hQwT rmus Poea Tu it: k mt Zbc CorburoiP6 Purdue has the distinction among the colleges of the United States of having the greatest number of unique college customs, all of them original and copied after none.

But it was an auspicious opening when some one hundred and fifty couples entered the new Memorial and lightly danced away the fleeting hours ' till Old Sol proclaimed another dawn. The gymnasium was artistically decorated with a profusion of Amer- ican flags, state, college and fraternity banners and pennants, and in the center was the orchestra hidden in a forest of palms and green. Buffet lunch was served in the lower rooms, and at last when the strains of Home Sweet Home marked the close, there was no one but felt that an evening fraught with pleasurable moments had passed into history.

On the train that October members of the football team, accompanied by hun- ing down to Indianapolis to see Purdue play the annual football game with Indiana University. Through some mistake a switch engine was on the main line and a collision occurred in which seventeen were killed and many others seriously injured. The building of the Memorial Gymnasium grew out of the desire to erect a fitting monument to their memory which would be something real and concrete, — a reminder to the students of future generations of those brave fellows who lost their lives in that fatal wreck. The building was put up by subscriptions of the Big Four Railway Company, the Citizens of Lafayette, the Alumni Association, the Student Body, the Harlequin Club, the Board of Trustees. George Ade. and many others interested in Purdue and her affairs. Slowly but surely the building took shape, until on May twenty-ninth it stood forth to the student body as a livins thing and soi-iething that will always be the center of student activities and athletic events. The formal program of the day was in the hands of Dr. T. F-. Moran, and the opening number on the program was music by the University Band. Addresses then followed by: For the Faculty President Winthrop E. Stone For the Trustees Mr. George A. Jamison For the Alumni Mr. John F. G. Miller For the Students Mr. Burr Oswald Fink A musical selection was then rendered by the University Band, and the following addresses were delivered: For the Citizens Mr. Charles C. Pyke For the Indiana Colleges President Robert L. Kelley For the Conference Colleges Prof. H. J. Barton The exercises then closed with the singing of the Purdue song. Purdue University lacked for a long time a gymnasium that was worthy of the name. The old building was little better than a barn and was too small for the needs of the student body. No monument could have been erected which would be a more fitting memorial to the memory of the wreck victims. May it never be scarred by the hand of the vandal, and may it always be an inspiration to the athletic teams that are to come in the future. fn ■iJ ' JrF tmM rtHiy lHiHriM] The I. H. S. A. A. Track Meet H.S,A.A On Saturday afternoon, May 22, 1909, occurred on Stuart Field the an- nual State High School Track Meet. The weather conditions were ideal in every respect for a big time and ex- actly suited the large crowd in the bleachers. In the number of athletes entered, this meet was by far the largest ever held under the auspices of the I. H. S. A. A. There were thirty- nine high schools represented by the one hundred and fifty-two athletes who took part in the events. Five State high school records were broken. Manual Training captured first place with 23 points. Shortridge was a close second with 19 ' -2 points. Mon- j ticello and Richmond made good show- ings with 11 and lu points respectively. Next came Hammond with 8. and then Fairmount with 6. Harold King of M. T. H. S. easily took the honors for points scored individually. He took first in the 100 and 220-yard dashes, in the broad jump, thus scoring 13 of the 23 points made by Harold Morrison of Shortridge came next with a first in the and second in the broad jump, thus scoring S points for his PURDUE UNIVERSITY MAV22,I909 ' ONE MILE RELAY RACE WON BY - ile relay M. T. H. of 3: ith a lead of 30 feet over Hammond, who came in second. A large silver loving cup and a handsome banner were awarded to them. Dr. Herman of Chicago, who has charge of the conference meets, was the oflicial referee, and his work was, as usual, above criticism. The meet was secured for Purdue through the efforts of Hugh Nlcol, who saw in this event a chance to show Indiana high school athletes our school and our splendid new gymnasium. Before the events were starte.l the embryo athletes were treated to the sight of a big parade, which marched on Stuart Field, as classes, with President Stone and the band in the lead. When all were in the center of the field, the Purdue series and other yells were given with a force that caused Mechanics to turn over in his grave and tremble. After the yells a general run was made for the bleachers. The high school boys were ably taken care of, and were entertained by the fraternities, clubs and individual students. The plans as they were laid by those in charge were all worked off smoothly, and every man left Purdue with a good impression of her hospitality. One sad accident occurred to mar the success of the event. Prof. B. M. Hoak, professor of Mate- ria Medica in the School of Pharmacy, was called from the bleachers to assist in conducting the hammer throw. He was struck in the abdomen by a 12-pound hammer hurled by one of the athletes and received injuries which caused his death a few days later. This fatal accident has caused several schools to abolish the hammer throw. gOAJbA WjBJBK I it was with Gala Weeli of that June in 19119.

On Saturday afternoon there was a baseball game with Earlham, and as usual with Nick ' s machine the score was in our favor. On the bleach- ers were the Seniors with their parents or their sweethearts, seeing the last game of their college days. For soon, ah, very soon, those days would be only a pleasant memory, and they were swiftly drawing to a close. At seven in the evening the band gave a concert on the campus. Sunday morning dawned warm and hot. It was Baccalaureate Sunday and at three o ' clock in the afternoon the Class of Nineteen Hundred and Nine gathered at the Agricultural Building and marched to Fowler Hall. Miss Linn rendered the processional on the organ, a hymn was sung by the audience, and the prayer was given by the Reverend John P. Hale. Mr. Beard then sang Lord God of Abraham. The responsive reading followed, after which Mr. Beard sang In My Father ' s House Are Many Mansions. The sermon was delivered by the Right Reverend John Ilazen White. and it was indeed a masterful address and an inspiration to all. After the sermon a hymn and the benediction followed, and the recessional was played by Miss Linn. Another Baccalaureate Sunday had come and gone as those before and as will go those that are to come. In the evening Vesper Service was held, and as the music drifted over the campus twilight had fallen and the moon was rising slowly with all her majestic splendor in the East. It was something that left an impression. It was quiet, peace and grandeur everywhere. Monday had no school event, and the day was spent for the most part in trying to keep cool, visiting and saying good bye. In the evening the Theodore Thomas Orchestra gave a concert in the Memorial Gymna- sium. Our famous alumnus, George Ade, also appeared and later in the evening a reunion of the class of ' S7 was held at the Lafayette Club. The tales those old grads told of the Old Dorm and Pat Tracy, Prexy anil many others, would make the under-grad of today open his eyes with wonder. On Tuesday morning at half past ten o ' clock was held the annual meeting of the Alumni Association. Under the new law in this State, enacted at the last session of the Legislature, which allows the Alumni Association of each State school to select from their number one to serve on the Board of Trustees. George Ade was unanimously elected, and this marks the beginning of even better things for Purdue. George Ade is famous the country over, and whatever be does, it is with his whole heart In the evening the Senior Ijanquet was held and the pent-up enthusi- asm of four years was let loose; and in the wee sma ' hours as the Seniors, now graduates, came across the levee it was with a full apprecia- tion of the word Finis that they looked backward over their college days. Thus Gala Week closed and passed into history. Friends of four vears were to part to enter the various walks of life, some of them to part forever, but with their hearts loyal to Purdue and ever ready to rise to her defense or need, and like the words of the song. Back to old Purdue, To the dear old campus, Back where skies are blue; Back to old Purdue, Back where friends are true. Gee, I ' m glad I ' m going back To nlrt Purdue. and : thi! the Alui in Command, Back to Old Purdue Campus lunch was served at n( the afternoon the Senior-Alumni Field, and in the evening the Fac lopted the song from 1 the official Alumni son oon and the band gave a cc baseball game was played Ity held their annual recepti members of the graduating class. After this was over, the Senior Hop was held in the Gym. Wednesday morning came, the goal of four years of hard work, of toil and pleasure, sorrow and joy. Commencement day had come at last for the class of 1909. Some had fallen by the wayside, others had dropped out, and some had died. It was the survival of the fittest, and they were there to hear the final word. Abstracts from the different theses were read and the address was delivered by Andrew D. Sloan. LL.D.. Commissioner of Education of the State of New York. The degrees were then conferred by Dr. Stone. The coveted diploma was theirs at last. --Per astra ad astra. The Tank Scrap ' Tis saiil that the freshman knoweth not, and know knoweth not. Be that as it may. we have no evidenee the wearers of the green certainly had their eyes opened Friday. September 17. 1909. The time-honored custom which occurred on that night has un- dergone a purification as in every process of evolution, and is now known as the Reformed or Debrutalized scrap. Possibly it is for the best. However, it is certain that it will re- main an important factor in the history of the underclasses. The freshmen this year took the bull by the horns and published a date for the prelim- inary, but the sophomores, feeling that their rights were being encroached upon, refused to heed the ultimatum of the first year men, with the result that only one preliminary bout was indulged in. The outcome of this first skirmish brought upon the ' 13 men the indignity of chains and much paint. Both classes put up a scrappy fight, and indications bespoke a hot engagement on the night of the final event. For a week preceding, the night air was rent with cries of Freshmen Outl and a marching of many feet, and when at four o ' clock in the afternoon of the seventeenth some four hundred yearlings assembled behind the Civil Building, the feeling was at its height. The freshmen, under their leader Owens, then re- paired to the scene of battle and prejiared for the fray. Promptly at eight, the appointed time, the ' 12 men took up their point of van- tage at the top of the hill. Their num bers, three hundred and fifty strong, luade a formidable appea in Grecian Phalanx style, and at the signal from theii boldly descended on the yelling ranks below. The impai 63 th not that he ance. d awn up leader. Ha.N t of the masses resulted in a pot-pourri of feet, arms and legs, which for many minutes seemed unable to become disentangled. When, however, the dust lifted from the field of carnage, the ' 12 yell was heard on the breeze and it was known that the battle had gone but poorly for their opponents. After the victims had been securely bound, the snake-like procession re- paired to Stuart Field, where many customs handed down from time immemorial were in- dulged in. The defeated braves in paint were put through a variety of weird dances to the accompaniment of Indian tom-toms, much to the amusement of the onlookers. One unlucky youth, who thought discretion the better part of valor, was extracted from within locked doors, and gaudy with paint (not much more) required to give his interpretation of Eva Tan- guay in her Dance of the Seven Veils. By the time the embers of a monstrous bonfire had burned out, the night revels were over, and thus passed into history the sixteenth annual Tank Scrap. With the graduation of the present Senior class, there passes the last of those who knew the combat as it once was. But 1 let us trust that the members of classes yet unborn may. in the years to come, look back to pleasant memories of this well-tried custom. It is interesting to note the attitude of those concerned, when considering college customs, the Tank Scrap in particular. The very name brings a thrill to the student and alumnus, a vague dread to the parent, and resignation to the faculty. To the public at large, the rough- ness is objectionable, but as the old saying Is. Boys will be boys, and though we retain much of ancestral barbarism, shall we not. so long as no serious injury is sustained, take the event as an indication of red blood in the rising young American?

Keb. 24. 19111— Arrangements are now being made for the biggest and spiciest mechanics burning ever pulled off at Purdue. During the afternoon of the day the final services over the body of 1. P. C. are held, a monster parade and pageant will be seen in West Lafayette. Ani- mals from all parts of the world will be there, although monkeys will predominate. A huge steam calliope is now on its way here from New York City, and is expected to reach Tippecanoe county some time during the middle of April. Ike Merriman, who was put in a straight-jacket and sent last week to the sanitarium for cal- loused cocos. will attempt to escape in order that he may be executed here at the time I. P. C. is hung on the lemon tree. Monk Ed Davis is also expected to be one of the features of the parade in his singing, dancing and flea-picking specialty entitled. I Am the King of the Cocoa- nut Grove. It is expected that a large number of the fac- ulty will run along under the animal wagons. After I. P. C. has been duly burnt and Merri- man has hart his orifice plugged forever, the ex- celling Seniors will attend one of the classiest theatrical productions ever brought to I,afayette. ANOTHER WIRELESS. Feb. 2. ' j, Ullli.— On the twenty-second a se- ries of inharmonic impact vibrations, ema- nating from the west end of the campus in waves of varying amplitude, disturbed the equi- librium of I. P. C. Mechanics to a very high degree. The sympathetic vibrations set up throughout the feeble man ' s frame worl caused such a high temperature and consequent stresses that six expansion joints reached their elastic limit before he could roll an I. While the results of the recent tests have not been disturbed, it is known that the energy spent in friction during active life was too much a function of the normal loading. Too much neglect of the fatigue of mind and matter seems to have been made by those in charge of Mac during his college career. Low efficiencies and lost powers are the results. Shades of Euler, Navier. Chezy, Newton and others recently made a call on the sick man. During the visit Newton discoursed quite freely on aerial equilibrium. While the talk was being made Mac ' s lamps gleamed like new rivets, and his front looked more like a shear diagram than a force polygon. The real motive of the Shade ' s call was for the purpose of spik- ing I. P. C. to the Hades Research Club, which at present is engaged in making intensive ther- mal efficiency tests on Mechanics ' instructors. Merriman is completely at rest after having an inverted siphon placed in his principal man- hole. His fixtures are in pocr shape, however, and liable to cause the loss of his effective head at any minute, necessitating the installation of a new pump in his deep well. His run-off for the last week has been above the normal for this season of the year, making the amplitude of back-water so large that his spillway section will have to be changed. IMPROVEMENTS. March 4, 1910. — Since receiving the last mes- sage from the Half-Way House, I. P. C. Me- chanics has improved rapidly, the doctors in charge calculating his improvement as varying directly with the third power of his resilience. The return of Mac ' s last energy has been ac- companied with such abnormal bursts of speed in the reciprocating mechanism that n in his |)ower formula has become so high as to en- danger the cohesion of the rotating parts. In consequence a fly-ball governor and safety stop have been added to his make-up to stop the an- gular acceleration and cut out all possibility of racing. At ijresent the top chord members of his cantilever span are causing the most trouble. The span was originally designed for the sani- tarium, to carry dead load only, and the sud- den application of live loads and their vibra- tions have made this a very dangerous section. However, two new factors of safety have been ordered and are expected to arrive this week. Merriman ' s left reaction has been partially washed away by the recent heavy run-off, leav- ing the arch ribs over his flrst lateral inclined to the vertical at an angle of thirteen degrees. .4fter making a recent call. Bernoulli or- dered that no spiking rtele.gations for research clubs be allowed to see the patient, and no equa- tions be given except his own, and those to be taken in a steady flow without friction. He also claims that the flow in the main channel has become so scanty as to materially change the wetted perimeter. RECEIVES SERIOUS INJURY. March 11. 1910.— I. P. C. Mechanics was ap- parently well on the road to recovery until late last night when he attempted to put on an in- verted catenary aerial sketch that would not have appealed to his old friend Newton at all. Everything went fine, in Uncle Mun order, until the point of contra-flexure was reached. At this point the horizontal component at the foot of his battered support became so high as to produce a state of unstable equilibrium, pre- cipitating our catenary friend to earth, describ- ing a parabola as he fell and alighting on the knife edges of a testing machine. At first it was thought that a state of permanent equili- brium had been reached, but the application of extensometers indicated vibrations in the main diaphragm. On further examination a deep fracture was found in the extrados of one of his roof arches, allowing 13,000 B. T. U. to es- cape before repairs could be made. It is not likely that the old boy will be able to get around for awhile. A letter from Merriman to his son was re- cently intercepted, and among other things con- tained the following: It has always been the dream of my life that the day would come when 1 could have the opportunities of dampening those electricals. Although the pleasure isn ' t mine, it rejoices me greatly to know it is still in the family. Show them that there are other currents besides polyphase that don ' t cause one-half as much loss of head. Above all, create a lasting respect for your father and his teach- ings, for I fear the overflow is near at hand. LATEST FROM MARBLETOP. March 2.5, 1910.— A recent communication from Marbletop Sanitarium concerning patients Merriman and I. P. C. Mechanics is filled with words telling of extreme suffering and awful fiirfliodin-.

The animal is one of the Dukeyreis famil.v, and at times is al- most human. Under the tutelage of the trainer it has been taught many interesting tricks. Most notable among these is its ability to cause profound slumber among its audience while in the midst of a more or less intellectual dis- course on any old thing. For some time the animal amused the pa- tients very much; now, however, both have grown morose and sullen, and nothing short of hot web plate applications on Mac and the water cure for Merri seem to have any ap- preciable effect. The latest bulletins are to the effect that it is only a matter of a few days before the end will come, and that life is being prolonged by the aid of applied mechanics gas. It is to be hoped that the sick men give out be- fore the supply of gas is exhausted. SERMON. O. all-wise Victims, remember ye that a column eccentrically loaded is subjected to compression (W=fA) even as it is involved in flexure (M= ' ' ' ) Then wilt thou exercise great discretion in the bowing of thy topmost governing ball, lest at any time its frail support should snap asunder.

O gentle hearers, our deceased friend, McAnnix, is of doubtful origin; whether he be evolved with arched ribs by the approximate laws of Simpson ' s rule in the convulsed convolutions of the brain of I.

MERRIMAN ' S ORATION ON I. P. C. Friends, Seniors and Studes. lend me your ears. I come not here to honor I. P. C but to denounce him. The evil that men do lives after them; And so it is with yonder nut that lies so stiff and cold. The good is not interred with his bones, And so it is with I. P. C. He was a compounder of bum formulae And only lived the student to confuse. This is so. and it is a most grievous fault. He knew not of the laws of fluids flowing. And much did leak at weir and orifice. Here, under leave of yon funeral director. For he is a dishonorable man tor interring such a stiff. And so are all who taketh part in these last ceremonies, Come I to speak at Church ' s funeral. He was no pal of mine, a niut and nut. and most unjust to me; For Tommy Eyre says he was ambitious. And Tommy is an honorable man. He hath brought many flunks unto the Zoo. And Monkey sent them home to dad and mother. Did this in I. P. C. ambitious seem? And when t he stude has cursed in accents long and harrl. Old I. P. C. rejoiced. Ambition should be made of sterner stuff; And yet, Doc Hatt says he was ambitious. And Doc ' s a High Brow of the type most hopeless. You all did see that at the book stores I handed him a package. Which put him on the blink and gave the Faculty some cash: And the wild-eyed Duke sa ' s he was ambitious, And sure he is another nut that chaseth o ' er the campus. Speak I to let you know that I am it. And drinketh Vermuth like even unto Doc Hatt, Who scowls and frowns on high. wreck from Cornell You hate old I. P. C, and well you may that ramblii town, With notes and problems, nuts and beams and cords that break. And flexure, tension, torsion — all the rest a hopeless miscellany. But I am he, the man who made the orifice and put Na CI into the sea. O judgment, thou art fled to the brutish beasts, And Jimmy Hoffman has his reason lost. Bear with me yet a little while; My hated rival in yonder casket lies with that thick book; And I must pause and draw from yonder keg some amber liquid, T. and W., famous of the beers that students drink when through with that poor tool.

C. might have stood against Mike Goldeu ' s; now he lies here a rigid body. And these poor fools do him much reverence. Profs, were I to stir the whirlpool Of your grafting, thieving natures to mutiny and rage, 1 should do Myers and Joey Quick a grievous wrong. Who you all know have ponied long and ponied well; But I will keep my face shut. For anyone who by that monster there did ride Has my respect and reverence. Know you all the formulae of Iky Newton? I remember; It was a summer evening in his garden, The first time the apple hit him on the conk, The day he overcame the foi ' mulae that vexed him much. Look in this book; and there this sneak and thief cohort. Liken unto Ferr ' , that knoweth nothing ' cept his trustv steed is bv his side; Even liken unto Cocky, that rants and raves and knows the least of all. Bear this in mind, for generations that are to come will curse old I. P. C. as you have done. But now, O time and change! For now Cock Wiley will expound my learned theorems. Much improved and easier. I hope. Go burn this nut, this fraud. This vampire, who on bones of studes in generations past did feast and fatten. With me and Baldy.

The City Chap relates the adventures of Jack Hamilton, scion of a wealthy family. His father. Colonel Hamilton, desired to give his son a plentiful store of hook learning, hut Jack thought otherwise. He made a rapid circuit of Brown, Princeton. Cornell and Harvard, to no purpose, except a general one of leaving at the request of the Faculty. When Jack retired from Brown, under stress, this was the last straw. The rcil.in,.] tnM -.rack he would have to face the music and hustle for himscir hi, k li,hl fallen in love with young Annie Belle Willowby, a proiluii Ml a i;i lii.iiialile finishing school. He follows Annie Belle to her home, tri.s in rniiivate an acquaintance with her, much to the chagrin of the illnwliy family. While engaged in this pursuit of love, he learns that a sviliway will lie built through the town of Byway. He secures em- ployment In the nttiee of a land speculator, Burleigh. While there he gets a tip through the innocence of Tanzy Lippincott regarding the prospect- ive subway through Byway. He seeks to buy property along the route of the proposed subway, anticipating a rise in value. His father happens to come to the town, pays a visit to Burleigh, advises him to sell all the B. L. K. which he owns. Jack comes into the ofBce. hears his father ' s advice to Burleigh, takes the tip. forms a clique to purchase the unloaded B. L. K. Jack succeeds in manipulating the deal with the help of three fellow-employes of Burleigh. They sell the shares to great advantage. With his share of the gain, Jack buys the desired property owned by Mr. Updike, a competitor for the hand of Annie Belle. He sells the land to the subway company, realizing a handsome profit. Jack is now a wealthy young man in his own right, and presses his suit for the hand of Annie Belle. He is accepted, marries her and provides a beautiful home for his bride and her family. Jack becomes reconciled to his father after he has shown that he is able to make his way in the world. Colonel Hamilton is e.vceedingly glad of the success of his son. and gives to Jack and his bride his pa- ternal blessing. From a foolish and aijparently hopeless intercollegiate circuit riiier. Jack becomes an energetic and successful man of affairs. ACT I.-— Street in Byway. Saturday afternoon. ACT 11.— Burleigh ' s office. The following Saturday afternoon. ACT 111.— The new residence.

The family moved West in ISGG. locating at Pittsboro. Indiana, and at this place and Danville he received his early education. After teaching for five years in Ihe public schools at Linton and Pittsboro, he entered the Purdue School of Pharmacy, graduating in 1S92. Imme- diately after graduation he became a member of the instructional corps of the Pharmacy department, and at the time of his death was Professor of Materia Medica. No member of the Faculty was more popular, or more deservedly so. He possessed a personality that made friends for him. not alone among his colleagues, but also among those who had the privilege of knowing him in other walks (if life. He was broad minded and public si)irited — an honor to the university and the community alike: sincere in all that he did, and ever ready to do more than his share. He was a deep student, an efficient teacher, and the author of a number of text-books on pharmacy. His ability as an instructor was due in a large measure to the personal in- terest he manifested in the students and his influence was always good. His death was one of the saddest and the loss one of the keenest that the university has known. MOSES COBB STEVENS. The news received at the University of the death of Professor Stevens, on .March 2 , 1910, brought grief to a _ large circle of his friends and former students. He had been sjjending the winter at his residence in Talla- poosa. Georgia. Professor Stevens was. of course, unknown to the present generation of students, but those who were in the University during the years prior to 1902 will remember him with true affection. He was head of the de- partment of mathematics for many years and withdrew from active service as the result of increasing age ami infirmities. Moses Cobb Stevens was born at Windham. Maine, July 5, 1S27, and was eighty-three years old at the time of his death. At the age of seventeen he entered the P ' riends ' school at Providence, R. 1., spending four years there. . t this time four or five months each year were sjjent in teaching so as to defray expenses. After teaching several years he came to Indiana, but while at Earlham he was appointed Professor of Mathematics at Harvard College. In 1880 Professor Stevens came to Purdue, following nine years of service as superintendent of schools at Salem, Ohio- After acting as librarian and registrar he became Professor of Mathematics, continuing in that position for a period of twenty-two years. It is impossible to convey to those who did not know him personally a sense of his fine character and estinuible qualities. He expected thorough work from all his students and had no tolerance for the negligent or incompetent University. 1910 Gala Week Program 3:30 p. 111. Milligan College Game 8:00 p. 111. Band Concert.

The New Practical Mechanics Building Before request waf of Practical Meeha slightly modified. ■« IHT years ago the number of students in the shops equaled the capacity for which the department had been originally designed. The next year it was evi- dent that the space was inadequate, and a request was made to the Legislature for relief, but not until the winter of 1909 was action taken. At that time one hundred and seventy-five thousand dollars were appropriated for the new shops and their equipment, nade a design had been prepared by the Department cs. and the funds being available the original design, s forwarded to the architect. The arrangement was to provide for lecture and drawing rooms in the front building, with wings in the rear for four shops, a large hallway connecting all and of ample size to serve for museum purposes. The wings were planned to have two identical rooms as to size laid out for the machine and wood shops, and two smaller ones for forge and foundry work. In planning the building as a whole the principal objects in view were ample lighting and ground floor convenience. Next in importance was a proper heating and ventilating system. These considerations led to the covering of a large ground space, thereby making the cost greater than for a building of several stories. It also rendered the arrangement of the heating system more difficult, but at the same time aided materially the solution of the lighting and ventilat- ing difficulties. In caring for these it was decided to separate the heating and ventilating system, as under the conditions of intermittent use more economical results could be obtained. The heating is accomplished by direct radiation all over the building and the ventilation by air from a system of distributing ducts, the air being tempered to about sixty degrees in winter. In the main, or rather the front portion of the building, a three-story structure, the drafting rooms are located, provision being made for two hundred students at one time without crowding. The upper drawing room, which is directly under the roof, is for the freshman work. It is nearly an ideal place, being provided with ample top light, high ceiling, and no dark spots. It is separated into two parts by a large ; that will serve as a cloak room and also for the offices. The blue print room has south and west exposures, and is also fitted with electrical print- ing apparatus, and equipped with the necessary washing tanks and drying racks. The second floor is to be used for the sophomore work in Descrip- tive Geometry: the rooms are high ceiled, the light being obtained through side windows. The ground floor has a lecture room for three hundred students, two large recitation rooms and the main offices. Directly back of this three-story building is a large passageway that is to be used for museum purposes. In the basement under this portion of the building are the wash and locker rooms, one for each wing. These will be of ample capacity to accommodate eight hundred students. The north wing contains the wood-working rooms and the foundry, separated from each other longitudinally by smaller room to be used for lecture, tool room and storage purposes. The south wing has a similar arrange- ment for the machine and forge shops. The basement space under all of this portion of the building is to be used for storage purposes. Some of the special features that are developed in the new shops as improvements over the old conditions are as follows: There will be elec- trical drive for all of the machinery, thus making it possible to arrange the machines in smaller groups, and the addition of some motor drive machines of the heavier type tends to .still greater economy. The combina- tion of the several methods of distributing power will have an educational advantage in itself. The artificial lighting is taken care of by numerous individual incandescent lamps, in conjunction with Cooper-Hewitt lamps for some of the larger areas. Another point that was looked after with considerable care is the arrangement of the shop lecture rooms. These have a seating capacity of such a character that every student in the sec- tion has ample opportunity for seeing all the demonstrations. The seats are very steeply tiered, and turntables installed for exhibiting the heavier pieces of machinery during the course of a lecture. Taken as a whole, aside from the individual advantages offered, the new Practical iVIechanics building will fill a long-felt want, and alleviate the crowded condition which has so long been In evidence. ..I ' lhijiiii:: 1911 JUNIOR PROM COMMITTEE Dyer ButterHelJ.

My sub-consciousness was trying to adapt itself to the overwhelming fact that I was about to venture into the arena and fight for my life. The master-minds of the nineteenth century were awaiting to discover me in the roadway and then crush me beneath the Juggernaut of infinite su- periority. The h igh-school lambkin was headed for the jungle where the wild animals roamed. The train had come thirty miles, and already I was homesick. Wedged between my feet was a glittering valise of the kind that will stand up un- less the rain happens to strike it. In my left hand I clutched a worn copy the Annual Catalogue and Register. One section was charted with information for the guidance of those struggling toward the light. Board would cost $2.50 a week. With due economy as to the items of laundry and sundries the annual expenditures could be held down to ?185 —or say $200 a year when accompanied by riotous living. It seemed a lot of money to spend foolishly. The courses of study were eNhibited as towering pyramids, supiiorted by brackets. The lower planes invited to geometry and botany. The top- most heiglits, uii among the clouds, four years away, were marked Psy- chology, Analytical Chemistry and Political Economy. The more I looked at them the more evident it became that they were inaccessible. The cry of Kxcelsior! rose very faintly within my timid soul. My vision see myself in 1SS7, seated o Albert suit and preparing was not sufficiently lu ' ophetic to enable i the topmost pinnacle, wearing a $30 P thesis on Literature in the West. The train rolled into the broad bottom-lands of the Wabash, and I saw- above the corn fields the clustered spires and massive walls of a great city. It looked like London. Paris, Vienna and New York welded together into one gigantic capital. To this day I never visit Lafayette without stopping to gaze at the court house and wonder how it is possible to trim dow-n a building to one-third its former size without destroying the symmetry. I looked down at the river and identified it as the Rubicon, after which the valise and 1 found ourselves in a multitude of thirty or more persons on a long platform at Second Street. All of these persons seemed especially hardened to city life and Indifferent to the trembling uncertainties of young persons from far-distant points. The Annual Catalogue and Regis- ter had given no specific directions to govern one suddenly alighting from a train, so I stood on the platform holding firmly to my property (daily newspapers had told much about thievery in the metropolis) and waiting for the next turn of Fate. Then Charley Martin came into my life. Years may come and years may go, and memory may fail me regarding people and incidents of a quarter of a century ago, but Charley Martin will always stand out in the solitary splendor of a landmark, silhouetted against a purple sky. Charley drove an express wagon. He named a price for delivering my trunk to the dormitory, and said he would let me ride on the wagon. 1 had no trunk. He allowed me to substitute the valise. Why no trunk? Well, I had yet to pass my entrance examinations. and it seemed advisable not to stock up witli all the shirts, underwear and towels carefully set down in the Annual Catalogue and Register until I felt sure that I could squirm through the portals and be enrolled on the heav- enly list as a real Freshman. Any one familiar with conditions on the Purdue campus in the autumn of 1SS3 will tell you that I should have brought the trunk. There was no possible chance of my not landing as a Freshman. Along about that time any human being between the ages of fifteen and twenty who ventured any- where near the Purdue campus and showed the slightest symptoms of ac- quiring a college education was roped and dragged into the registrar ' s ofBce. A few conditions more or less cut very little figure. Purdue needed students, and needed them badly. Those on hand were to be treated kindly and fed with the spoon as long as they gave reasonable evidences of human intelligence and came to recitations once in a while. In those happy days there was no merciless weeding out — no cruel and terrifying flunk tests. The sword of Damocles was not doing busi- ness. The man who wanted to leave school had to commit arson or homi- cide or something like that. One commander had left and another was just coming aboard. He had not been given time to organize his crew, set things to rights and get the ship back into her course. Purdue seemed to be wobbling, not to say floundering. The storms had buffeted, provisions were running low, and the hands had not been paid for months. A good many wise people pre- dicted that Purdue would land on the rocks and stay there. Having offered these figurative allusions, I will get back to cold facts. Dr. James H. Smart and I arrived on the scene at practically the same moment. He came in a phaeton and I came in Charley Martin ' s express wagon. That day marked the turning-point of the struggle to establish a school of technology in Indiana. Dr. Smart found a weakling and trained it into robust manhood. The first great task confronting him was to build up the attendance. We lived by favor of the legislature, and the legisla- ture had a way of dividing the total outlay by the enrollment, the result showing a per capita expense that was simply staggering. In order to reduce the per capita extravagance and smooth the way for shops, labora- tories and more professors, the university needed more students. Profs, stood at every entrance to the campus waiting to welcome them. I was not acquainted with these facts. As we rode through the old boxed-in Main Street bridge and across the narrow levee, with a board walk of it, I felt sure that I was approaching the hor- I expected to be tried and found unworthy and propped against rors of the Inqu sent back home. At the foot of Chauncey Hill was a little cluster of wooden buildings. The long grade was sparsely bordered with dwelling houses. At the top of the hill was a lonesome drug store, the only student rendezvous of the period. That part of the campus lying east of the carriage gate was then a field of grain. South of the main roadway was a thin procession of boarding houses. The old main building held the center of the campus and seemed a trifle larger than St. Peter ' s at Rome. The other buildings were the Ladies ' Hall, the Chemical Lab (now used by the School of Phar- macy, I believe), the engine house, that venerable ark known as Military Hall, and a neglected annex across the roadway devoted to what was trying to be a School of Agriculture. Snoddyville was a wilderness of corn stalks, and the present site of Stuart Field was away out into the country. Mr. Martin delivered me at the dorm. A soft-spoken prof, with gold spectacles, a pink-and-white complexion and a complete set of auburn whis- kers took me by the hand and told me I was welcome, and suggested that I send for my trunk. He was afraid that if I went back to get it they might lose me. He conducted me to a room on the third floor of the barracks, where I met two Comanches from Sullivan, Indiana, who were to be my cell-mates. He pointed out a straw stack in a field to the west, and gave me some helpful suggestions in regard to filling the bed-tick. Then he led me to the registrar and helped me to remember my full name, and also steered me to the Boarding Hall, where I burned my bridges behind me and paid a month in advance. Returning to my room in the dorm., I found awaiting me the two from Sullivan, Indiana, who informed me that the sterling drama Fogg ' s Ferry would be presented at the Opera House that evening by Minnie Evans and company, and that gallery seats were twenty-five cents each. As we went down the hill together I began to feel almost like a regular. Within a week I was leaning out of the window to pity the fresh fish that Charley Martin delivered every day. I lived in the dorm, for four years and — such is the durability of early- formed habits — to this day I never pass the building without making a wide t urn into the roadway to avoid being ducked. Georue Ade, ' 87. at OUR POLICY Perhaps it may be presumption in a Ijook of the heterogeneous nature of the Dkrris to even lay claim to a policy. However, since every- thing that goes into print may arbitrarily pur- loin a policy from someone else, we have se- cured a policy that is entirely up to date and adequate for all our needs. In fact, our policy Is a source of great pride to us. and we are will- ing to allow it to compete with any policy on the market, save that of the Registrar ' s office. In the first place, our policy is to present things in their true light, as we see them. Other volumes of the Debris have either been vicious in their knocks or have dropped into the lukewarm habit of wishing each Senior a most prosperous and happy voyage through life, with all the automobiles and private cars ap- pertaining thereto, attached. That we have There are some Seniors who would defy the powers of a Baron Munchausen to predict their future. In truth, all we can see for them is the drafting board or the forty-acre farm. To say that these men would undoubtedly be a mammoth success is too much of a stretch of the imagination; and for this reason we have predicted no brilliant futures for any of our Seniors. Now, in regard to faculty roasts, it is a trifle difficult to define our policy. There are some men in the faculty concerning whom enough could not be said, both pro and con. We have too many two-faced men in the faculty that never show their true colors, except in a faculty meeting where the student never hears of their weighty discourses. Many times one word in a meeting of this sort would give a student an- other trial, and yet the word is never spoken. Heartless, absolutely inhuman; what can be said of the head of a department that will not speak one word for a student who is down. The 81 poorest wretch on earth is entitled to more than one trial, yet some of our Seniors have felt the loss of just one word at the opportune time. On the other hand, there are big. broad-minded men in the faculty that would rather lay down a few red tapes than ruin the viewpoint of a student. These men we will remember when something brings us back to the scenes of our college days, while the peanuts, the faculty scrubs, will be remembered only in contempt. RED TAPE Verily, verily, it cannot be otherwise sinc-e it is written in the Book; so sayeth Monkey Davis and Miss Purdue. The Bible of the Chris- tian and the Koran of the Musselman fade into insignificance when compared to that Holy of Holies, the Mystic Shrine of the Registrar ' s of- fice — The Purdue Catalogue. The most ardent churchman never gave a more literal translation to his Bible than these two characters give to the Catalogue. The story of Jonah and the whale and the old moss-grown fable of the flood were never swallowed by the ignorant novice with more avidity than that which characterizes the interpretation of the Book by Monkey and Miss Purdue. The old Puritans believed in their Bible heart and soul. If it said the sun stood still for a space of twenty-four hours, why, the sun did stand still, that was all there was to it. If it said one must prepare for an awful sojourn in hell if certain small details of traditional rites ■were not observed, why. one could almost begin to smell brimstone. They believed in their book word for word as it was written. So the in- separable inmates of the Registrar ' s office in- terpret the Purdue Catalogue. The modern conception cf the Bible is entirely different. It is considered the truest and most valuable guide we have to a moral life. Instead of being an ironclad, arbitrary code of law s. it is now interpreted as being merely a blazed trail to assist the traveler in finding the way. He may deviate from its course in minor by- ways, but it indicates the general direction of his destination. So is the modern conception of catalogues. They should not be arbitrary regulations for the various courses offered in a university, but should be guides to these same courses. In the main the Purdue Catalogue lays out the best course for Purdue students, but there are scores of exceptional cases, where, as the instrument of Monltey and Miss Purdue, it becomes a damper to progress and an infernal PASSING OF THE ROUGHNECK. Years and years ago. when a cornfield flour- ished over the spot where the remains of John Purdue are now resting, and tall, uncouth youths came to school with copper-toed boots on their feet, it was an honor to be a rovighneck. The man who could drink his companions un- der the table was invariably the best athlete in school and was entitled to all the honors clus- tering around the athletic hero. It is a gratifying fact that this old-time idea has completely died out and that the rough- neck has disaijpeared from all student activ- ities. He simply cannot stand the pace. Oc- casionally a roughneck is elected to lead a tank scrap and be chairman of the mechanics burning committee, but aside from these not altogether honorary offices, the old type has passed from our peaceful halls. The DEimi.s certainly wishes all members of the senior class who have so loyally supported the staff in its work the very best success in life. AVe sincerely hope that the only true happiness which can come to anyone, which is none other than love for everyone, will mark the progress of our seniors through life. r oUOANJXATlo v SBIN I O ft CU A S iWent Howland OFFICERS.

Although this is the feeling of every mem- Ijcr of our class, at the same time we are anxious to take our places among the wcirld ' s workers and give back something inHiiijl ill return for what has been I si Freshmen four years seems a im- iiMM.

Our Freshman football t vnih such success that we were able to claim ! it ear and show the upper-classmen that i-nii. Our football record was followed by .11 and track, our class winning twenty- . 1 1.1.1, meet. Our first year ended gloriously, sbi|i also in the hands of the gray and blue. Besides the contributions that we, as Freshmen, made to athletics, that year Purdue was fortunate in securing the services of Coach Nicol, who is one of the best known athletic directors in the West. Nic has alrea.l done wonders for athletics here, and we are proud to claim him as one . i the men who came with us and wore the corduroys, and we are proud tn show his picture at the end of our own class roll. The only unpleasant memory of that year is the epidemic of mumps, which caused many a poor Freshman to wish to be back home. When we returned to school in the fall of ' 07, after a short vacation, we found the Chemistry Building finished and ready for occupancy. Al- though Science Hall had been the center of chemical activities the year before, we found our test tubes and flasks moved to a more imposing struc- ture, and there we betook ourselves to engage in the dramatic production of ions and atoms of every size, shape and color. By this time our number had dropped to four hundred and eighty-one. but this was more than sufficient to win the scrap from the ' 11 class, which was as sadly lacking in military tactics as we had been the year before. No victory was ever dearer to a Napoleonic army than this one to us. and it remains forever emblazoned on our memory. That fall six of our football men won their P ' s, and although we did not repeat our football championship, we made a creditable showing, con- sidering the fact that we had given so many men to the ' varsity. The fol- lowing spring we won the track championship with a total of forty-four points. The Junior year of every class is a very important one, but for us it was doubly so. While we were away during the summer a new building was erected, and we returned to find the finest United States Experiment Station in our very midst. Then, too. the foundation for the New Memorial Gymnasium had been laid, and we now grew to watch with eager eyes the placing of each new brick and piece of steel. Late in March it was finished, and we were per- mitted to use the building for the first time. Here, on April the twelfth, we assembled for our first and last Junior Promenade. The building was beautifully decorated with state seals, college banners and the red, white and blue, all of which made an ideal setting for the most enjoyable evening of our Junior year. We are proud of the committee that planned the affair so successfully that it was pronoimced the most brilliant social event in Purdue history. We can not fail to mention our distinctive gray and blue hats, for, dingy as they may seem now, they still look to us like the best class hats ever worn at Purdue. A little later in the year we went to Chicago on our annual inspection trip, and the tired-looking faces that returned indicated that they had been kept busy while away. One noteworthy change in the faculty was the coming to Purdue of Professor Henrietta Calvin from Kansas State Agricultural College. Pro- fessor Calvin is one of the most prominent teachers and lecturers of domes- tic science in this part of the country, and her coming to Purdue means the success cf the newly established department of Household Economics and a larger number of girls in the Univers ity. Our class championship in track was maintained, and we left school at the end of our Junior year feeling tliat we had spent the most profitable and enjoyable year of our career. And now, as we return to the present and look at ourselves as Seniors, our attitude changes. The time has come when we may wear corduroys and put on the dignity which distinguishes us. Most of our departments have taken their Senior inspection trips — the Civils to Louisville and Bedford, the Mechanicals to South Bend, and the Electricals to Indianapolis. Even the girls in Household Economics were given an inspection trip of three days in Chicago, which was a new privi- lege, and one that they entirely appreciated. The number of buildings for the University has been increased this year by the construction of the new Stock Judging Pavilion, the Farm Engineering Building, and the new shops. We know the classes that come after us will profit by their use. and we are glad to see them on our campus. The annual Mechanics Burning, which was held in April, was unique and spectacular, to say the least. Church and Merriman were both eulogized according to their individual merits. Our Gala Week committee promises a program that will fittingly end our college days, and it is one we look forward to with pleasure. Besides our activities that have been mentioned in this history, there have been many others. We are proud to say that out of the twenty-nine P men in school, nineteen are Seniors, and although sixty-five 1910 men are now wearing their class numeral, we have not neglected other things for the sake of athletics. Our class has devoted itself to the enlargement and interests of all the technical, literary, musical and social organizations that go to make up one of the most important phases of college life. We are near the end of the race, and as we say farewell to our friends now in school, and to each other, we pledge our undying loyalty not only to them, but also to everything that bears the name of Purdue.

Contributions to Athletics by the Class of 1910 proud ui both ' va bettering intercollegiate co been the motto from the st; E Class of .Nineteen Hundred and Ten, so dear to all those who go to compose it. has made a very i redit- able showing in athletics since entering Purdue in the fall of 1906. A goodly number of men have played on the ' varsity teams, and have done a great deal to maintain the standard of athletics during the last four years. A class is rated largely by the part it plays in athletics, and be it said that the Seniors can feel rurd made by their fellow-classmates in athletic contests, d class. The graduating class has done a great deal toward s, for clean athletics and clean athletes has The spirit of rowdyism has been absent on all occasions. This one fact alone is enough to make the class one to be remembered. It has been the policy to fall in line and uphold the Confer- ence rulings, and only a very few men failed in this respect. As Freshmen, 1910 suffered a very severe beating at the hands of the Sophs in the Tank Scrap. The sting of this defeat was carried in the hearts of the men, and when the two classes met on the football gridiron the Sophomore colors were dragged in the dust. That fall the team was the best seen in school for many years before or since. They won every game, and only a very tew points were scored against them. Many a time they were called in to work against the ' varsity, and on several occasions bested the regulars in practice scrimmage. It was a great team, and many of the men that went to make it up have shown up later as stars. It will not be a hard matter to remember the men of the team — Tex Bryan, Cupid Kirk, Kassebaum, Kelley. Shade, Hanna, Eisensmith, Fauber, and a few others. The basketball team that first year was strong, but failed to land the interclass championship. Basketball was at a disadvantage. The only place available was the old armory, and with four class teams clamoring for its use. it is no wonder that the standard was not as good as might 91 have been under different circumstances. The track team also failed to land the coveted first place, but made a very creditable showing. The baseball team followed in the steps of the football men and made things hum. Ninety men responded to the call. Captain Hodges and Man- ager Sargent had a hard time selecting a team from this number. By the time the first game was played a fairly well-balanced team had been chosen, and trotted out on the diamond amid the cheers from the throats of the Freshmen. As the season advanced it was easy to see that 1910 was a baseball class, and the team that year won a clear title to the interclass championship. With McQuire, Hodges, Bush, Creed, Forsythe, Guepel, Myers, Jahnke and Sargent in their respective positions, the team played a consistent game at all times. In the Sophomore year a number of men went out for the ' varsity teams, and hence the available material for the class team was limited. A number of the men won their letter that year, and made a fine showing for the school. The football team could do no better than hold its own. Kirk. Hanna. McFarland, Shade and Kassebaum were on the ' varsity squad, and made excellent records. The basketball team that same year was exceptionally strong, and lost the pennant by one game, the class of 1911 taking first place. Bert Westover made his appearance, and more than made good by his work on the basketball team. About this time several men from the class were beginning to do things in track. Knapp, Diener, McFarland, McWayne, Hench, Gardiner, Stockbridge and others were on the ' varsity squad, and were attracting attention by their earnest work. When the baseball season opened most of the stars that had made the Freshman team were on the ' varsity, or had withdrawn from school, and the season was a disappointment to the followers of the blue and gray. Tragesser, Myers and Dalton made regular places on the ' varsity, and Sar- gent was carried as a substitute. Trag on first and Myers in left field were towers of strength in their positions. Myers was a terror to oppos- : ' ' -«t- 1910 NUMERAL MEN |-r(ieliih. .1. H. Swisert, F. C. ' Ols;.-. R, K. Speck, W. ( llnwl:iTHl. R. 13. Templin, E KiiK. K. T. Dalton, C. Franks, J. Ki ' ll.v. 1 ' .

As Juniors, the class teams had recuperated from the losses to the ' varsit;-. and once more 1910 was among the best. Captain Speck handled the football men in good shape, and had a fairly fast combination on the field, which succeeded in making a good showing. Big Christiansen held down the center position in great shape. Fauber and Doc Smith also re- ceived training which enabled them to land a Ijerth on the ' varsity the next fall. Eggeman. McFarland. Kassebaum. Goebel, Stockbridge, Hanna and others were on the ' varsity team in the season of 190S. These men gave all there was in them, and helped make the season as successful as possible w ' ith a team of inexperienced men. Eggemen. at taclvle, was a veritable Rock of Gibraltar. He was a veteran, and handled his men to jjerfection. Goebel delighted the school by his good work at end. and made a great record for speed and level-headedness. Kassebaum became one of the fastest line men in the West. He could break through the op- posing line and go down on punts as fast as an end. He was strong on defense, and played big Captain Van Hook, of Illinois, to a standstill. The armory was out of condition in the fall and early winter of 1909, and so there was no class basketball. Westover played his first and last game on the ' varsity team at the guard position. His playing warranted his election to the captaincy for the season of 1910, but he was declared ineligible by the faculty. Great was the disappointment over this fact, for every one expected Westy to make the All-Western Team that year. •Petie Creed failed to make a permanent position on the team, but worked hard and was a faithful man in training the ' varsity as a scrub. The Sophomores tied with 1910 for the class supremacy in track that spring. Longfellow as captain and Lommel as manager of the baseball team got together a fast bunch of men and tied with the Freshmen for the high place in the league. A large number of the present Senior class re- sponded to the call of Coach N ' icol for candidates for the ' varsity. Shade. Tragesser. Guepel. Sargent. Myers. Westover and Brown landed positions on the team. Shade and Tragesser formed a battery that made an excel- lent record as the season progressed. Myers played left field and Sargent his first year in right field. Westover landed the third base position, and Brown was carried as utility man. Guepel took care of second base in good shape. With six of the nine positions filled by ' 10 men, it is easily seen that the class of Nineteen Hundred and Ten did a great deal for landing the Western Championship for the Old Gold and Black. As Seniors a number of the class were trained athletes, and were mak- ing records for Purdue. All the Seniors in ' varsity athletics have made good showings. Class athletics during the last year have been up to the standard, with good prospects for the spring sports. When the ' varsity football call was issued twenty Seniors responded and stayed the entire season. Goebel, Guepel, Mitchel, Fauber, Smith, Kassebaum, McFarland. Doc Smith. Speck and Hanna all made the team. The hardest part of the whole football season is in the fact that, after going out and laboring hard for the whole time and winning the P according to the requirements as set forth in the Constitution of the Athletic Association, they were not granted the letter. Some of the men will have to graduate without the honor. To some of the men this was a marked injustice, as it was their last chance to win the distinction, and their playing merited it. It will take a long time to drive the sting of this action from the hearts of man.v. Eggeman worked hard under a big handicap to make a winning team, but was unable to do so. Petie Creed was the only member of the Senior class to make the ' varsity basketball team. The basketball season, the first in the New Gym. was one of fast games and thrilling victories, and Creed played a consist- ent game throughout, winning his letter, and words of commendation from every one. On the track this spring the 1910 men should show up well. Gardiner has been elected captain, and has the squad hard at work. In the outdoor meets Gardiner, Hench, Diener, McFarland, McWayne, Heekin, Stockbridge, Garrett, Blasser and Myers will do all they can for the fame of the Boiler- Myers was unanimously elected to lead the baseball team this season. At the time of going to press the squad is working well. He may not be lucky enough to captain the Conference Champions, but it is a settled fact that Purdue will hold her own, and the teams winning from this aggrega- tion will have to play gilt-edged ball. Sargent is holding down his old position in right field. Guepel is a fixture at the keystone sack, and Myers will play left field. Brown has the third sack position cinched and looks good, while Clasgens. Smith and Dalton are fighting it out for center field. Shade and Westover are out of the running, as they have been barred on the grounds of professionalism. Tragesser has dropped out of school. The class has made its best showing in baseball, and a great showing it has been. More good baseball men have come from the ranks of 1910 than any other class on record. When the men graduate this spring many a hole will be left to be filled. Every man in the class has a right to feel proud of the achievements of his class in athletics. Always responding, always working, and pulling together for the good of the class and the school, those who are true to the blue and gray can leave Purdue with a feeling of satisfaction that their class has always done its best and held a high position in the athletic world at the University. fCompiled After a Trip Through the Hall of Famei Hy I he (in;.), ' LK right IliiK way, gentlemen; tickets on your riglit ; jtienty of time. Please leave your cigarettes on the outside, as the smoke may offend the delicate nostrils of the faculty members within. Above you, in the dome of this magnificent entrance, you will see the name of the generous ( ?) man who made this build- ing possible. He was known among students as the tightest and hardest professor on the roll. He never fnil.-.i If) ir. In iirevent all student enterprises. May this building be a lasting memorial to his Great and Memorable Tightness, Sir Sackett the Earlhamite. On the right and on the left you will see the likenesses of two of your classmates. Seniors C. S. Grover and A. McWayne, who are placed here as being the most ardent followers of the policy of the great man just mentioned. Immediately upon entering the main gallery you will see the smiling face of one who is well known, and one who was always looked upon as the best natured man in the faculty, gentlemen — our old friend. Daddy Cole. Below the large picture we have one of the sunniest men in the 191 n class, Stubby Broadwell. Although heavy laden at times, he generally wore a smile and sometimes a shirt. It is with a feeling of awe that 1 now point to a man who has ever been the terror of the Freshmen, but who is seen by the Seniors in a different light. 1 refer to Michael Joseph Golden, the most eccentric cf professors. In picking a man to fill the frame on the left, there was much discus- sion. Arthur Taber Jones was finally awarded the honor of being the funniest member of the faculty, and no one who has ever seen his genial face and actions can question the decision. The Senior class has been very fortunate in having four men who were able to dispense sunshine and pro- voke laughter at all times— Broadwell. Krieger, Howland and L. D. Brown. Being unable to secure the pictures of the homeliest men about the University (owing to photographic difliculties), we have placed their names on a scroll which you see on the column ahead. Profs. Bates and Gunn each claim the honor, but most people declare that it should be evenly divided. F. AV. Smith. G. W. Becker and Kaminsky have been chosen to represent the class in this place. In contrast to the foregoing, you will see in the large gold franv : painting of Prince Charley Beckett, acknowledged as the best looking ni;ii around. He has two seconds among the ranks of the Seniors in H. c Thomas and B. C. Creed, men who have made the hearts of the fair y of Lafayette thump, and who have been the objects of admiring glances on every occasion. It faces are fortunes, these men might be millionaires. The picture next, with the marshal trimmings, shows the nerviest man in the instructional corps. Again I have the great honor of mentioning the name of Mike Golden. Let me also call your attention to the two men on either side, J. A. Diener and .J. V. Anspach. two men who have never been afraid to say and do what they pleased and whenever they pleased. And now, gentlemen, we come to a man well known to every civil engineer — that is, at Purdue — Professor Hatt. As the lives of great men all remind us that we can make our lives sublime, the example of Prof. Hatt seems to have impressed Adams. Hench. McNally and Diener, and they strove to imitate and in parting leave behind footprints in the sand like his. It is with a feeling of entering a tomb of a departed comrade that I now reveal to you a professor of the Mathematics department, one who ever took things seriously, the meekest of them all — Westlund. Below is F. C. Weaver. He was never heard to speak above a whisper, and went about making his A grades in church-mouse style. Westlund and Weaver, models of men who believe that the meek shall inherit the earth. Let us now turn our attention to the pictures in the small room on the right. Four well-dressed men. men who might vulgarly be called sports, and men whose clothes were an asset. I refer to Mr. Hutchinson immedi- ately in front, with Speck, Goebel and Lee. The only other likenesses in this room are those of the most popular men about school, in faculty and class. Again I have the pleasure of show- ing you King Cole. As he holds the place in the faculty, so does Dick Howland in the class. Mr. Howland is conceded to stand alone in this regard, and merits the honor and confidence bestowed. On again entering the main room from the west, you will see two men, one of the high brows and one of the class. These two, it is said, thought a great deal (?) of each other; and we are fortunate in securing the pictures of the two greatest bluffers together, Professor Golden and .lohn Props Drabelle. The three best good fellows about the university are portrayed in the large frame at the side. Professors Burrage and Bridge Smith were ever known as two of the best liked men in school. When we mention Sargent as a running mate, enough has been said. In contrast to these mentioned just now. let me present to you T. Foxy Moran, the most unpopular man on the Faculty at the present time. He has won distinction from his zealous efforts in ferreting out every man who ever witnessed a professional ball game and treating him as a criminal. Each school of Engineering is represented in this class: Vitz of the Electricals, Black of the Mechanicals and Busch of the Civils. The rest of the notables you will sec in the west wing. We have de- parted from the usual custom and have life-like statues of the rest. The large figure and the smaller ones on either side represent the neatest of our acquaintances. Professor Beckett. Losey, Lee and Stevenson. The sculptor who modeled Johnson, known as the most careless man among the instructors, and Coles, of the Senior Class, had a lot of trouble in copying the style of dress and color schemes these men were wont to wear. After dint of hard work you see the results he has attained. The next two figures you see are the most conscientious men in the University, Professor Topping and Adam Dull. Topping is always sin- cere, and Adam has made a record that has seldom been equaled in stay- ing with his books on most all occasions. It was seldom that he could tear himself away, and hence the name of Stienmetz. We have had the likenesses of Professors Latta and Shade made in somber colors, the better to harmonize with the religious trend of the lives of these two men. Ever hard workers in the cause of Christianity, may they ever hold the esteem of their fellowmen for their efforts. Do I see you smile, when I point to you a man famous about the school for making the air blue? It seems almost sacrilegious to place Mr. Klipsch by the side of the two men going before. If this worthy gentleman could make things ring, so also could three of our fellow-stu- dents, for Bush, Koerner and Drabelle were all accomplished cussers. The last group of four are figures well known to most of you. You will see by the inscription that they are the rough riders. Each was a ponyer of no mean caliber. Professor Evans and his able understudies, Koerner, Myers and L. D. Brown. The management wishes me, as the guide, to state that the places awarded to the men whom you have just seen portrayed has been in accordance with the vote of the class. They hope that none have been disapjiointed. and that all have attained the honor for which they strove. So with this parting word we will leave the Hall of Fame, hoping that every Senior will pull for Old Purdue and try to place his name among the famous men who are proud to call Purdue their Alma Mater.

History of the Junior Class EPTEMBER days and the close of summer again brought us back to the (old ; and most fortunate were we that joined the ranks of the class of 1911. Glad days were these, yet filled with the responsibilities as well as the privileges of upper classmen. Our first and chief duty was the guardianship of our sister class, the class of 1913; in their first uncertain steps and initiation into the customs and traditions of Pur- r privileges outnumber our duties; and first of these are The l at of white, encircled by a brown band, made its initial appear- ance at the Northwestern football game as we followed the wearers of the corduroy on the field, and since then it has been worn as a mark of dis- tinction of which to be proud. The selection of a pipe followed, and to us stands as a symbol of comradeship of the best year of college life. In athletics 1911 can always be counted on to do her part, giving her best to the school at all times; and is now doing a lion ' s share In raising the standard of our teams, which are ever demanding more respect from our opponents. Three of our number were awarded championship medals. because of the fine work done by our ' 09 baseball team; and we are fur- nishing capable men in other branches of athletics. More than this, the class, as a whole, ably supports tiiese sports in all ways: and when called upon, contrary to custom, was able to turnish a captain for our basketball Purdue has reason to be proud of her literary and journalistic opportu- nities, and the class was ever quick to seize them. Our members are con- tinually gaining more control of these publications, furnishing the busi- ness managers of two of them as well as man% members on the staffs of each; while the literary societies find them in attendance and taking a leading part. The class average would compare favorably with our predecessors in standard of scholarship, and this is the prime function of the University. However, the social life is not neglected; and though some are counted among the leaders in Lafayette society, all participating in the deeper so- cial life, entering heartily into the fellowship of comrades working to- gether with the same purpose in view; and we only wish that all may stand the test, together gaining that high di.stinction of being a Senior. 0R0ANI2 AX10f or a Colors — Maroon and While.

History of the Sophomore Class irMPIiAXTLY we, the loyal supporters of the maroon mill white, are approaching that era in a student ' s life when he is no longer looked down upon as an under- classman. While we look forward with much eager- ness to onr days as upperclassmen, it is with the urrari 1 iil.asnre we review our past record. i;.:ili irm that the time had again arrived in wliirh «r iiiiuht proclaim our existence to the world two dibits ul the Arabic numerals on the famous old tank, we determined to make the 1909 tank-scrap a glorious Sophomore victory. Only those who were on Stuart field Friday night, September 17. can fully appreciate the extent of our success. The scrap won, our energy was next directed toward athletics. Owing to the Purdue spirit among our men we sacrificed a winning class toot-ball team in favor of a good showing on the ' Varsity eleven. With such experienced material as we will be able to contribute to the gridiron next year we may hope for a foot- ball team worthy of her Alma Mater. That we furnished three men on the Purdue basket-ball team during the past season, and were still able to defeat the two upper classes in the battle for class-championship, fur- ther indicates our athletic ability. With a record of having tied with the Jtmiors for baseball championship in our Freshman year, we enter the new- season with the brightest of prospects. The track has also attracted men from our number, who have maintained a good standing. Sophomores are conspicuously numerous in student organizations. The band, the orchestra, literary, engineering and debating societies and clubs of various natures have all realized the importance of enlisting a goodly number of ' 12 men in their ranks. To suppose that athletics and other student activities have caused our standards of work to deteriorate would be an injustice to the class of 1912. On the contrary, our gray matter has developed directly, as our interest in all things pertaining to the University. Endowed from our infancy with an enormous amount of class spirit, we determined in our Sophomore year to distinguish ourselves by appear- ing on the campus in an insignia of maroon and white. To have this plan shattered by the upperclassmen was rather disappointing. Our loyalty remains undaunted, but with our Junior hats so near in sight we are willing to forgive the ' l(i and ' 11 men for their decided action against our innocent project. Wherever an opportunity has been afforded the class of 1912 has made good. The officers of the class have faithfully performed their duties, and have at all times been given the hearty support of their classmates. We have received liberal consideration at the hands of our upperclassmen and the faculty, whom we have endeavored in a measure to repay. With a past embracing so many pleasant remembrances, we will enter upon our Junior year in the fall with a bright future looming up before us. It will be with awe that the 1914 men will listen to the enthusiastic: Riff, rah, riff, rah! Riff, rah, well! Whoo-rah, whoo-rah! J O Sop ioiiioie, forget your pride, Lay down your bold conceit.

With this m view the class of 1913 began immediately to make history and establish records. Soon rumors of Tank Scrap spread over the campus, and almost as soon did the Freshman class prepare to meet their Sophomore rivals on the field of battle to fight for glory. Although de- feated in the tank strap by more e.xperienced men, at every moment we were at the front losing gamely. True to the reputation of odd numbered classes. Nineteen Thirteen started in to make a record in athletics, and up to the present time we h.ivp established a lecord to be proud of. Our laurels on the football field were many, the team playing the clean-spirited game that is always sure to win. Having annexed the interclass football championship to the fame of the class, we turned our efforts to the same goal in basket-ball, which indeed we obtained. From the showing made up to this time we will fur- nish plenty of good varsity material next year. Not only in athletics has our true worth been recognized, but in the various organizations of the University we constitute a prominent factor. In the literary and musical organizations we find the Freshmen well rep- resented and holding their own with the upperclassmeu. From the above facts it can be seen that our past has been very suc- cessful and that our prospects for the future are very bright. We hope to continue in making rapid progress and to hold and ever increase our prominence in the history and welfare of Purdue. HlSTOKHN. CTtz SENIOR PHARMACIA OFFICERS. B. Haynes Presiden C. E.

Only two-thirds of the original sixty-eight, however, will graduate. The weedingout process, which was started early in the Junior year, eliminated quite a few. A number have also left us because of reasons not attached to class-grades. A number of those we have lost were good men, and the class regrets that they will not be in the receiving line when the sheep-skins are passed out. Two have been picked up from the ' 09 class, and two ' OS Ph, G. men will receive their Ph. C. degree with us. So, after all, our number will about equal that of formi ' r graduated classes. As Purdue students, there have been no other classes in the past who have shown more spirit. In our .Junior year four men won their class numerals in athletics, two of whom defended them in their Senior year. Others have held important and responsible positions in University affairs. The class as a whole have taken active part in the University traditions. We fought both our Junior and Senior years with the ' 12 class in the annual tank scrap In our Junior year a custom was established to wear a black cap with a red Rx emblem upon it, and we hope that each succeeding class will adopt the same as an official headgear. The annual trip to Indianapolis as guests of KM Lilly Co. of that place was the one event of our Senior year, to which everyone looked for- ward with great anticipation; and there was no disappointment. The class went in a body, accompanied by a portion of the faculty and a number of friends. The day was spent in inspecting the local wholesale houses and the enormous plant of our host. . s a culmination to the day ' s pleasures a banquet was served in the evening, at which many interesting talks were heard. The toast list included many persons prominent in the pharmacy circles of the State. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed himself, and deemed the trip very beneficial. Our relation with the instructional corps has been pleasant and sociable. One ot the features of our Senior year was a smoker tendered the class by the genial Nick Carter at the S. P. E. House. The tragic death of Prof. Hoak, regarded as one of our best friends, was lamented by one and all, Mr, Kennedy, who succeeded him, met with the popular favor of the class. Professors Green and Sturmer, the wheel horses of the department, we regard as indispensable to the success of the school. Prof. Green has tendered his resignation as dean of the de- partment. For a quarter of a century he has had charge ot the pharmacy school and the steady growth in attendance has heen due much to his ingenunity. He will still remain in charge of his classes, and in a way is still controling the department until his successor is appointed. There is a tendency among the faculty now to centralize the va- rious branches of the course, and in the near future all chemistry will be shitted to the chemistry department and the biology to the science depart- ment. These changes, with the addition of several new subjects, promise to make the course even more efficient than at present. The Zodiac tells us that the future of the Purdue School of Pharmacy is bright. We hope that there is no mistake in the prediction. In our obituary we wish to say that we are proud of our career. The individual good fellowship of each member of the class has been noticably appreciable. We are proud of our class work, of our connection with Pur- due University and of our reputation as boosters in every respect. We will remember with pleasure our associations vith Mr. Thomp Miss Griggs, Mr. Berghnis and Mr. Cook. Our best wishes are extended to succeeding classes. HisTi.rii.v . W.

The most vital of the traditional duties of the Seniors was to secure our yell and give it before we learned it ourselves, but. thanks to the promptings we received, we proved victori- ous in that respect.

However, if the usual spring malady does not interfere, those who are now with us expect to return next fall as full-fledged Seniors. —HISTORIAN. Winter Course in Amculture THE SHORT HORNS lAT the interest among farmers in all lines of agri- cultural eduration is not in any degree diminishing lb shown by the continued large enrollment in the Winter Courses in Agriculture. The Short Horns came from widely scattered farms to the University to learn of the new order of things only to return to the farm with greatly in- creased enthusiasm, knowledge and determination to succeed in the world ' s greatest laboratory — the field. Soon after New Year ' s they gather to spend a few weeks in intimate touch with the work of the University in class rooms and laboratories. They find a sched- ule prepared that is full to the last hour and they undertake it with a degree of interest and enthusiasm such as it not shown by any other group of students in the institution. Their interest lies mainly In the practical side of agriculture and instructors are kept busy answering questions that are intended to fit them fcr actual conditions on the farm. This led one member of the Faculty to remark that the interest shown by the Short Horns could not but be an inspiration to the Instruction al corps. This year the classes in Agriculture and Horticulture, Animal Hus- bandry, and Dairying were filled to overflowing and the Domestic Science course had a larger representation than last year. That their work was not below the standard is shown by the fact that more certificates were granted than last year. The Winter Course Agricultural Society was organized as usual and it enjoyed a large membership. Following the precedent established by last year ' s class, it decided to retain a page in the Debris. As they remain but a short time they have little chance to enter activities outside of the class room. That they were willing and anxious to participate as far as possible was shown in the Tug-of-war, where their knowledge and strength ma- terially aided the regular A.g. men in pulling the engineers across the line. Many of them came here from other schools and colleges. For vari- ous reasons they feel that they cannot enter a longer course, but during their short stay many are able to so adjust their view point that they plan to return and enter the regular four-year course and thus become an Im- portant factor in the University life. The farm needs them — the University has a iilace for them— they ap- preciate their opportunity. Long live the Short Horns!

Sixteen young and prom- ising, hrawny, athletes, developed physically aud mentally as well, were carried into the vast beyond without a moment ' s warning. It was on October 31, lltii;!, that the ' Purdue Special, carrying the football team and hundreds of loyal Purduites to the scene of the greatest of the State ' s foot hall con- tests of the year, crashed into a cut of cars as it was nearing Indianapo- lis, Never in the history of Purdue athletics had such an appalling dis- aster come to her and there are few, even to this day, who can resist shed- ding a tear for those beloved athletes when the accident is mentioned. Almost immediately afterward there hurst forth the feeling that some sort of memorial should ■ . r., (, i in .n.l.r to partially show the feelings of those connected with (n . : i : ' I ' m.Uie. The Lafayette Morning Journal contributed a nciit i. i ■ .1 the ball rolling, which finally resulted in the magnificcTii un. im. Imwu on the preceding page. The Big Four railroad was a large contributor to the building fund. Many Lafayette people responded in a substantial manner and each class in school since then has given a small sum. usually five dollars per man. The Building Committee had considerable difficulty In meeting the type of building desired with the available funds. They decided to curb their hopes and to erect a building as near their idea of what a memorial should be as their limited funds would permit. The money was spent wisely, and today the student body is reaping the benefits of the hard labor of the Building Committee, and the generosity of the contributors. This handsome building is spacious, conveniently located with reference to Stuart Field, well equipped, and modern in every detail. It is well lighted and ventilated and affoi ' ds a place of recreation to all those de- siring such. The interior is divided so as to utilize every inch of space. It will comfortably seat two thousand spectators at basket ball games and other events, at the same time, affording to all an unobstructed view of the game. Every student in school can have his individual locker in the locker room, as there are two thousand iron lockers installed. Besides there are the ' Varsity quarters in the North end of the basement. The showers occupy the south middle section of the basement and just beyond them is a large pool, which is usually well filled with swimmers. Re- cently a batting cage was installed for the use of the baseball men during winter months. At hours when the ' Varsity teams are not using the floor it is open to the student body and is generally well filled. Athletic and Physical Director, Hugh Nicol, and Assistant Athletic and Physical Director, Ralph Jones, have their hands full in caring for the throngs of athletes during spare hours. Those desiring physical development have been arranged in gym classes, and receive systematic training under these two men. Wrestling and boxing are being taken up by the students quite extensively, and many interesting matches have been pulled off this year. Another feature of the gym work is the ladies ' gym class, which meets one evening each week. With such a handsome and well equipped gymnasium Purdue should hold her own with other Conference teams. Any athlete casting his lot with Purdue will find things in his line first class in every particular. Every convenience for systematic training is at hand and no longer are Purdue athletes to be hampered with cramped quarters. The gym fur- nished a first class place for indoor track meets and judging from the records of the indoor track team this year, the fellows are not letting the opportunity pass to improve in this department of athletics. Water polo is about the only indoor gymnasium sport that remains to be taken up. and it is only a question of time until some of the water dogs will have a chance at water polo teams from the other Conference schools.

The Purdue Athletic Association ; rurilne Athletic Assotiatioit is coniposed of all per- ons connected with the University who are legal I S -j yw holders of a coupon book and all merchants who r ® 1 ISi ?S have purchased a window card. The membership, including practically all students and professors, be- sides over one hundred and fifty merchants, is en- tirely an optional one. there being no compulsory athletic dues or fees connected with matriculation. To be onie a member a student pays five dollars tor a coupon book, and is given an athletic button as an outward sign that he is a member. The coupon book entitles the holder to free admittance to all athletic contests throughout the year. This makes the price of admission per student a minimum, being about seventeen cents per game. This system has proven a great success since it was adopted and practically insures smooth sailing financially for the Athletic Association. Other large universities are tak- ing up the same system and it is proving a success elsewhere as well as here. The Athletic Association is protected by being incorporated under the State laws of Indiana. The officers of the Association are elected by votes cast by the members of the Association at an open meeting each year. They consist of the following: President, vice-president, secretary, mem- ber from the faculty to serve on the Board of Directors, and five members on the Insignia Board. A yell leader is also elected once a year, usually from the Senior class. Other business of general interest to the members is brought up at these meetings. Since the membership is too large to handle all the business quickly and too inconvenient to assemble as a body, the Association has its power invested in a Board of Directors composed of ten members, a president, vice-president, secretary, a student representative from each of the four classes, one man to represent the Alumni, a director at large and a representative at large A manager and a treasurer are selected by the Board, both of whom are salaried men. The treasurer is assistetd by a student treasurer, also appointetd by the Board. His position also carries a salary. The Board of Directors meets once each week and disposes of all busi- ness pertaining to athletics. The powers of the Board are practically un- limited. They can dispose of any and all business without further appeal to the general association. They select coaches, choose the athletic and physical director and assistants, authorize the e.vpenditure of all money, and transact all business which bears any relation whatever to the ath- letic association. The decisions of the Board in regard to coaches is sub- ject to the approval of the faculty athletic committee, of which Dr. T. F. Moran is chairman. The manager acts in all cases under the direction of the Board. He is detailed to purchase all materials and supplies, provides for all help needed about the gym and Stuart Field. He looks after the uniforms and supplies for all teams and purchases same. He is directly responsible for all teams while they are away from the University. It is his duty to make out playing schedules in all the branches of athletics, arrange for the contetsts, and secure proper oflicials for such contests. The manager attends to I he whole business of the Association, subject to the approval 182 of the Board of Directors, and is the only man who is authorized to t)e- conie a party to a contract which involves the money of the Association. The treasurer is compelled to keep an itemized account of all receipts and expenditures and to submit an annual report, giving a detailed state- ment of all receipts and disbursements. He is under heavy bond and has charge of all money belonging to the Athletic Association. His books are kept up-to-date in every particular, and he can furnish at any time a statement of the exact condition of the treasury and the amount of money taken in or expended under any one branch of athletics. The student treasurer assists the treasurer in all ways possible. He assists in the selling of memberships to the Association, and has charge of the advance sale of seats for all home contests. He also has charge of the gate at the home contests. All money collected by him is turned over to the treasurer. He is also under bond. The treasurer pays all bills only upon the order of the finance committee, composed of the president of the Board and the faculty member of the Board. The bills are sent to the manager, who, in turn, presents them to the finance committee, which authorizes the treasurer to pay them or not, as it sees fit. By the fore- going method of carrying on its business the Athletic Association oom- the ' a fide ill who deal Physical and Athletic Director Mr. Nicol is never known by dents, instructors, and town-peoph Nick. He came to Purdue in th so to speak, which shows that his lis real name, but is saluted by stu- as well, by the old familiar name, spring of 1906 and has won a home, efforts have not gone by un- noticed. Prior to coming to Purdue, Mr. Nicol had a wide and varied amount of experience in playing on and managing athletic teams. The lessons learned during this time have stood him well in hand since being at Purdue, for by shrewd management and close application of facts learned, he has placed the Athletic Association on a sound financial basis. His experience includes the following: Two years with the Chicago White Sox; five years with the St. Louis Browns (world ' s champions in 1SS5-SG1: five years with Cincinnati in National League. He has man- aged the St. Louis Browns iu National League, coached, managed, and owned the Rockford. 111., team in the Three-1 League for seven years, and coached and managed the St. Joe and Rock Island teams in the Western League. Nick was the first big league player to attempt the head first slide. While with Cincinnati he made a record of stealing 14G bases in 140 scheduled games, one which has never been equalled since. Base ball is Nick ' s long suit, and his record as a base ball coach while here is one to be justly proud of. He came first to coach base ball alone, but was soon boosted to his present standing. His experience in fast company made him acquainted with every detail that wins or loses HUGH NICOL games, and his knowledge of these details has been drilled into Purdue teams since he has been here, so deeply that there could be but one re- sult. Last year when the dope artist had the base ball situation here painted pretty black Nick reversed the order of things by taking a bunch of green men and whipping them into a team which won the un- disputed title of Champions of the West. Mr. Nicol has a wonderful amount of hustle up about him. Plenty of pepper and dobbers up are his favorite expressions of what he desires to see in an athlete. He plays no favorites and has a personality which induces men to work for him without abusing them. This being Nii ' ks fourth year here the Senior class voted him a pair of cordur which he wears with as much dignity as a real Senior would. Assistant Physical and Athletic Director .Mr. Jones has not bteu at Purdue lous euouah for the student; learn his nick name, if he has any. Since his sojourn here he has for himself a warm spot in the hearts of the fellows. Upon the con RALI ' H JONES of the nesv syni the duties of the athletic departuieut increased ■as necessary for Nick to have an assistant. When tlie Board i lected Jones they hit upon the right man, for his ability as a coach has been proven over and over again. His long suit seems to be basket ball and there are few. if any men, superior to Ralph as a basket ball coach. Jones has coached about everything on the athletic bill of fare, and has had a wide experience in other institutions before coming here. He started out coaching Shortridge High School track and base ball teams for four years. He has coached Butler and Indiana basket ball teams. In 1901-02-03 he was with the Indianapolis Y. M. C. A. basket ball team as coach. From 1904 to 1908 he was athletic director at the Crawfords- ville High School, where he turned out a championship basket ball team three years, and tied the fourth year. He was physical director at the Crawfordsville Y. M. C. A. at the same time. He turned out a champion- ship team at the Y. M. C. A. tour years and also a championship team four years while with the Indianapolis Y. M. C. A. Ralph made a record for himself while at Wabash by winning the basket ball championship of the State four years out of five. It was his team that trounced Yale for the championship of the world. While at Wabash he coached base ball two years and toot ball one year. His wide experience at coaching different branches of athletics makes him a very valuable man for Purdue. He is one that remains here throughout the year and in that way will become intimately acquainted with athletes here. The development of a green bunch of basket ball men into a team second to none speaks for itself. The same team with a little more confidence earlier in the season would have won the Confer- ence championship. He took the indoor track team and more than made good in coaching them. Jones will coach the bask et ball and track teams in the future. a II • fjr. ■ a k£ ■ 1 1 ' ' i t i t 1 t t.  f § i 1 1 ft A ■« M « V 1 «-tfft.

WESTOVER double r Iften Rr i 1 ■ ' f1 f L - ¥rf Football Season 1909 The foot ball season was a failure from the standpoint of number of games won by Purdue. It was a bitter pill all the way along to both players and students. Deprived of a coach in mid-season, and getting continually drubbed, it is a wonder the players stuck it out till the last as well as they did. It was the hardest kind of a season for a player and certainly every man did all in his power to turn the tide of defeats. The fault lies somewhere else than with the players. They were a will- ing bunch, and the blame cannot be charged up to them entirely. To sink the humiliation deeper the Athletic Association refused to grant P ' s to the men who had complied with the requirements to secure the P, on the grounds that the work of the team had been so inferior that it was not in accordance with the spirit of awarding P ' s. The Asso- ciation was about equally divided on this matter and the insignia board also failed to agree. The individuals whose pictures are seen in this de- partment are those who have complied with the requirements for ob- The foot ball coach question is as much un- lur years ago. Purdue has coaches in other 3 stay here the year round. Why not have a same conditions? It is the same old story again. Purdue going up to Chicago and getting hopelessly walloped. The season for several years back has been opened in this same manner, which is highly unsatisfactory to Purdue supporters. The green Boilermakers found themselves confronted by a taining a foot ball solved now as it ; branches of athletit foot ball coach und( team with plays galore and plenty of foot ball endurance to bunt our feeble opposition out of the way and run up a big score. It was a plain case of being out of our class. When the smoke of the battle had cleared away, the three or four hundred faithful Purduites on the bleach- ers realized the fact that we had been beaten and beaten unmercifully. 40 to was the score handed to Purdue. In the line Capt. Eggeman seemed to be the only one who could hold his own. Doc Smith did some neat defensive work in backing up the line, and was about the only man who tackled like he meant business. Goebel did the kicking and did better than had been expected. On October 9 the Purple eleven succeeded in adding another scalp to their collection by beating the Boilermakers 14 to 5. They were exceed- ingly fortunate, however in having the luck all their way. Both of their touch-downs came as the result of flukes. Their drop kick, as well as Purdue ' s touch-down, was earned. Purdue started badly in the first half by allowing Northwestern one touch-down and a drop kick. However, in the second half, Goebel was better able to keep his men together, and ran off plays so fast that it took the Purple warriors oft their feet. Miles, at end, handled the forward passes in phenomenal style. It was clearly a case of Northwestern being out-played, but still winning on flukes. The Purdue eleven came within an ace of allowing DePauw to go home with the big end of the score safely tucked away. The game was played October 1.5, on Stuart Field, and was a big scare to the Gold and . sfesiiH, :,t 4 A Northwestern Hitting Purdue ' s Line p Northwestern Forced to Punt foiislii IJkt ' demons to maintain tliat lead. l)ut the Boilermaliers had awalc- ened stifflciently in the second half to realize their danger, and put up an article of ball that simply couldn ' t be checked. Goebel was injured near the middle of the Urst half, and was forced to submit to being taken out. Soon after he was out DePauw made two touch-downs. Fletcher, who was substituted for Goebel put up a line game, especially in the second half, after he had gotten his team together. Score 15-12. Illinois was met on her own field October 30 and given the scare of her life. Dope had it figured that Purdue was destined to be walked over, but dope was badly upset. Purdue played her best game of the season, and made Illinois feel blue during the first half. Every man on the team did his best, and it was a source of much satisfaction to the five hundred Purdue rooters to see the splen did game the boys put up. Purdue started out strong by scor ing a touch-down after four luinutes had elapsed. Hanna seized one of Siler ' s onside kicks and raced seventy yardt through a broken field for a touch-down. The teams see-saweil up and down the field for several minutes without scoring, but the heavier Illinois line proved too much for Purdue ' s line and began to hatter if down in the sprnnd half.

The Purdue team fought hard all the time, and put forth their best efforts, but were unable to stave off defeat. The Rose Poly game, played on Stuart Field, resulted in a more satisfactory score from the Boilermakers ' standpoint than did some of the other games. The Purdue back fields put up a game that the Rose team simply couldn ' t stand. Their : plunges were driven with such force that they were a effective. When the second set of backs were sent in it took them just four downs to plow through the Rose oppo- sition for a touch-down. The Rose team started out strong, and were the first to score, when they worked the ball down to Purdue ' s twenty-yard line and made a place kick. The Purdue line held well and sifted through well on punts. Captain Eg- geman was much in evidence in this game. Urwitz and Tavey were fast, and nabbed men who seemingly had gotten away for i(MM II ,i(iwns. The final score was 24 to 3. On the day of November 20th came the last game of the season, with Indiana at Bloomington. Fully 1,200 people from Lafay- ette took advantage of the l ow rate over the Monon and spent a day in Bloomington. This unusually large body taxed the eating places of the down-state town to their capacity. Several of the churches served meals, and even some industrious women served meals in one of the buildings on the campus. This manifestation of hos])ltality was not passed by unnoticed by Purdue people, and nothing but praise for the courteous treatment re- ceived could be heard. Bloomington was crowded to the suburbs that day with visitors who had come from far and near to see the great state con- test. The Purdue rooters formed in line and escorted the team from the train to the hotel, and then, after several rousing yells, quietly disbanded until early in the afternoon, when they again appeared at the hotel. The team appeared after lunch and were given a rousing ovation as they piled into cabs and started for Jordan Field. The entire Purdue dele- gation fell in line behind the team and paraded out to Jordan Field. The specially prepared bleachers were all taken, and stand- ing room was at a premium. It was the greatest and largest crowd ever seen on Jordan Field that came to see the closing game of the season. Dope had it that Indiana would run away from Purdue, and it finally settled down to a question of what the score would be. The two teams were given a great ovation upon entering the field. After a few min- utes of warming up they faced each other in the center of the field, and the game was on. The Bloomington lads soon proved their superiority by long and repeated gains, which terminated in touch-downs in rapid succession. Purdue ' s defense was weak and her offense weaker. When the smoke of the battle had cleared up and the rooters hart yelled themselves hoarse. Indiana hart chalked up 30 point s to Purdue ' s 3. It was a clear case of the better team winning. This game ended the season, which was very unsuc- cessful to Purdue. Fletcher Passing to Sebal V. EG ■:MA ie ' came to Purdue after having served very creditably Noire Dame team.

Last season he had his last and only chance to make good, which he did in a manner pleasing to the students. He has romped about under a headgear his last time for Purdue. Speck was about the hardest tackier on the team. Whenever he hit a man squarely he usually made him feel like losing his lunch. He was al- ways in the play, and took care of his line position in good shape. He was a clean, gentlemanly player in all games, and was never guilty of any dirty work. Besides being fast on his feet, he always maintained a cool head inder the most trying circumstances, a thing which can- not be said of all on last year ' s team. F. SMITH.

Kassie has made good in football ever since he cast his lot with the Boilermakers, but played his best game in his junior year. From a position in the line, where he proved to be one of the fastest linemen Purdue has had in years, he was yanked out and forced to try for one of the hair back positions. He was not of the right caliber for a half back, and could do nothing to speak of in that posi- the coach found out that he had been partially spoiled as a linesman, and did not play up to his former standard when placed in the line. Drewery is very fast on his feet, and suits the new game admirably. He was almost always the first man down on punts, and usually nailed the man before he had gone many steps. He was a very hard tackier. In the line he invariably outcharged his man, and as a rule got under him ami dumped him. He K. MITCHELL, Right Guard.

URWITZ, Half Back. Urwltz played his first year on the team in a manner that speaks well for his career next season. He developed from a very ordinary player into one of lie fastest halt backs Purdue had last season. Wheneve r a short gain through the line was necessarj- to make Srst down, Ur- witz could usually make the required number of yards. He was fairly fast on his feet, and got down the field well on punts. A good tackier in the open made his work stand out prominently. Very rarely did his man get past him, and lots of times he has pulled down men from the rear when they were tearing away for what looked like a sure touchdown. His work along this line showed up best in the Rose Poly game. A bad hand kept him from putting forth his best efforts in the latter part of the season. Urwitz gave all he had in him for the team, and that is all any man can do. He has one more year to play on the team, and should be faster than he was last D. FRANKS. Left Guard.

' V3q;f A ' Si Baseball Season 1909 CONFERENCE CHAMPIONS IE baseball season of ' 09 was by far the most brilliant in the history of baseball at Purdue. The team that represented the Old Gold and Black on the diamond last spring was without doubt the best one Nick or any other baseball coach has ever put out at Purdue. It was well balanced in every detail. It there were any weak positions it would be hard to pick them out. Besides being well balanced in the field, the team was equally balance.l at the bat. There wasn ' t a man on the team that was a poor batter. Whenever any one stepped up to the plate and took his posi- tion facing the pitcher, it was a guess as to whether he would get a hit or not, for not a single man was a chronic wind puncher. The real worth of the team as a whole lay in the fact that they never considered themselves beaten, no matter how far behind they were, until the last ball was pitched in the last inning. Many games were pulled out of the fire by keeping cool and not losing their ner e at critical stages. The squeeze play was one of the Boilermakers ' old stand-bys. and the games were very few in which at least one run was not scored by this popular play. This play won a couple of games for Purdue by the narrow margin of one point. When indoor baseball practice began, the prospects for a winning team were not very bright. With only three of the old men back and a star pitcher and catcher graduated, Nick was up against it, and the student body in general conceded that if one-half the games could be won Purdue would be doing all she was capable of doing. When the outdoor season came, various combinations were tried, and by the time the first Big Eight game with Wisconsin came the best material at hand had been placed where Nick thought they should be. It is interesting to note that the team which faced Wisconsin vas the team that played together the re- mainder of the season. This demonstrates a coach ' s ability in being able to pick at short notice the best at hand and place them properly. Too much credit cannot be given to Coach Nicol for the splendid manner in which he handled his men, both on trips and at home, while coaching them. It was his knowledge of the game instilled into a green bunch who were willing to absorb and learn that made the team what it was and enabled 199 them to justly lay claim to Conference Champions. The batting averages of the team were high, and won for them the title of The Slugging Boiler- makers. The batting average for the team at the middle of May was .319, with the leading man, Myers, batting .500. The team made the remark- able record of winning ten straight games before being defeated. This practically cinched the Western Championship for them. This was the first Purdue baseball team that ever won a clear-cut title to the Confer- ence Championship. The Athletic Association, in recognition of the splendid record which the nine made, had handsome gold medals suitable for watch fobs cast, and presented each man who won his P with one. They bear on the face of them the Purdue seal, with the inscription, Conference Cham- pions 1909, Baseball, around it, and on the back the man ' s name and posi- tion in which he played is found. The first game of the season with Rose Poly had been scheduled as a sort of practice game, but up to the sixth inning it looked as it the Champs were going to get the smaller end of the score. The lads from Terre Haute romped across the home plate three times before the Boiler- makers could push a single man home. The slaughter came in the sixth, when Purdue scored five runs and knocked Backman out of the box. Three more scores were chalked up for Purdue before the game ended. DePauw was the next victim. This game was never in doubt from the first, and was only a question of whether or not the Methodists would score. Binder was out of the game with an injured eye, and his place was ably filled by Brownie. There was considerable shifting of ; the men in this game, in order to try them out. When the smoke of the battle cleared away, Purdue had annexed four runs to DePauw ' s one. Wisconsin was the next team to bite the dust. They gave the Boiler- makers the scare of their lives before they were finally downed in the ninth. Six of the Purdue men had never played in a Big Eight game before, and naturally had a touch of stage fright at the outset. Wisconsin took the lead and maintained it until the last two innings, when Purdue scored a couple that saved the day. Myers won the game in the ninth by squeezing Charters. Score, 7-G. lie to Stuart Field hoping t je the strenuous game the day before with W be bothering N ' ick ' s machine. They were ■ all but pounded out of the box. Each man oi the from Purdue lie- n would probably for their pitcher ;eam got two safe hits except Trag, who couldn ' t connect at all, and Myers, who got with three safe ones. This was the fourth game won. and the PurdU ' were rapidly rounding into a finished ball team. The final score .S to 3. Indiana was next given an awful drubbing on her own field. The field, composed of yellow clay, was thoroughly soaked by heavy rains ami prevented any fast base running, or the score might have been bigger than it was. Hier and Shade each found the mighty Johnson for three sate hits. Boltz made a phenomenal catch and scored three runs himself. The team played like veterans and came back with the long end of a 7 Illinois came to Lafayette determined to break the winning streak of Nick ' s Sluggers if su(di a thing was possible, but were forced to go home disappointed, with a 4 to 3 score against them. Purdue got two runs in the first inning, and the Suckers forged ahead with three in the third inning. Nick ' s machine got busy in the eighth and brought two more runs across, thus away putting the game on ice. This was the sixth conseculive victory for Pur- due, and the fans had begun to figure on the Conference championship. The seventh game was with DePauw, at Greencastle, and nearly re- sulted in a victory for the Methodists. It took the Purdue bunch just five innings to settle down to business. In the sixth they went in for blood, and forced five runs across the plate, thereby winning the game. Char- ters was in the box and Sarg caught, owing to the illness of Trag. Score, G-4. With seven victories to their credit, the Boil- ermakers were beginning to feel invincible, and with this feeling of confidence hanging over them invaded hostile territory in the northern three- game trip. Wisconsin was the first team met, on Thursday afternoon. It was an ideal day and a large crowd was on hand to see Knight ' s warriors bang one on Purdue. The game went on for thir- teen fast innings, with the score tied at 2 and 2. It was the record college game of the season, and the better team won out. In the thirteenth inning the Champs displayed their knowledge of the inside game by making the winning run on a perfect squeeze play. This was the secoml game won on the squeeze play. The following day the team went to North- western and succeeded in beating the Purple nine in an easy manner. The Purdue fielders took every- thing that came their .i. . ;iiiil ;iii rnur in ihr nullirld is all iluit s iv.-d Northwestern from getting a goobe egg. Tlie game was tuo easy fur the Boilermakers, and they tooli it by the score of 12 to 1. This was the ninth straight game tor the Champs. The team, in glowing spirits, went to bed that night at the Chicago Beach Hotel and dreamed of drubbing Chicago. The following day, Sat- urday, Chicago was met on Marshall Field and disposed of by a score of 2 to 1, in a very close and exciting game. Thus ended one o£ the greatest baseball trips ever taken by a Purdue team. It was the second season in succession that Nick ' s machine had taken all three games on the northern trip. The students pulled oft a night shirt parade that was a dandy that night to show their appreciation of the team ' s efforts. It remained for Illinois to break the winning streak of the Purdue nine at Champaign. The Lafayette boys did not play in form at all that day, and allowed the Champaign nine to run away with the big end of a 5 to score. Chicago next came nded them at home b; ; game sewed up. 2 to s score on a couple of ( o Stuart Field and evened up for the defeat winning a t ' ourteen-inning game.

In the fatal fourteenth the balloon went up, and Chicago scored five runs, thus win- ning by a score of 7 to 2. This was the last Big Eight game of the sea- son, and left Purdue high and dry in first place, with Illinois second and Chicago third. The successful season of 1909 ended with a victory over Earlham by a score of 3 to 0, Saturday, June 5. The work of the team as a whole throughout the season was excellent. They were a hard-working, willing l unch. and well deserve the honors which they won.

His knowledge of the game, coupled with a very aggressive nature, made him a valuable man to receive a new pitcher. His batting eye was good, and as a result he brought the bleachers to their feet many times with home runs and three-baggers. His batting average for the season was well up toward the top of the list. The greatest drawback to Trag was the fact that he tried to pull through school on too little studying, which cost him dearly in the end. He was unani- mously elected captain for the season of 1910. but did not remain in school long enough to serve in that capacity. When the team was ready to start on its northern trip last spring Trag was in bed sick, where he had been for a couple of weeks. He couldn ' t stand to see the rest of the boys pull out without him, so he got out of bed, packed his suit case, went along, and played three of the best games he has ever played. He enjoys telling how he caught a Chicago player trying to steal second, between first and second, and held him there by repeated motions until he ran across the diamond and tagged him himself. Tragesser was a valuable man to lose, and his position is going to be a hard one to fill as he filled it. ll CHARTERS S. SHADE. Pitcher. Big Newt was on the job all the time from the day Nick his baseball gym. class together early in February u was safely put on the shelf. June 5. There never was a more con- scientious worker that ever donned a Purdue uniform than was Shade. He worked just as hard in practice as in a Big Eight game. When the fans came out on the field early in the season and watched Oyster Smith ' s Yannigans land on Shade ' s benders fur three-baggers and home runs, a universal howl went up. and all ex- pressed the desire for a second Jimmie Rice to appear on the seem . This did not last long, for Elmer showed the kind of metal of which he was made by winning game after game. At first he was inclined to be eri-atic, and easily became worried when a man would cliance to reach the initial sack safely. This wore away as time went on, and Shade settled down and became one of the best pitcli- ers in the conference. His quick drop was a puzzle to most oppo- nents, and proved to be the undoing of many a young willow artist. He had plenty of speed and a fairly accurate control, and fielded his position in an acceptable manner. His greatest trouble came when on bases. To put it in a characteristic phrase, he ran bases like he was in a swamp. His steady work in the box in close games was a large factor in landing the championship rag on Stuart Field. Newt just couldn ' t resist the temptation to get a little practice during the summer months, and as a result will not be seen in his customary position this season. CHARTERS. Pitcher, I Coach Nicol of the pitching staff. He j life. at Kokomo. In spite of the fact that his baseball education had been sadly neglected before coming to Purdue, he blossomed out into a pitcher of real ability before the season was very far ad- vanced. Big. genial, cool-headed Dave created quite a bit of amuse- ment in his coming out baseball attire, for the pants were as short as basketball trunks and as tight as jockey pants. But his work in the box was consistent, and Nick gave him a chance to see what he could do against Northwestern up there. The way he toyed with them and kept their few hits scattered demonstrated that he was a comer. The 13 to 1 score in Purdue ' s favor speaks for itself and louder than words. He pitched the DePauw game at TRAGESSER the Wisconsin game on Stuart Field, and finished up v rdue in the lead 1 point. Dave ' s greatest asset while on und is to be absolutely at ease, no matter what the score is V many men are on bases. He has speed to burn, and can ball any place called for by the catcher. Besides working h the baseball squad, he went in for track, and won his P Indiana meet at Bloomington. He should make some one hu the mound position this season. mr % J. WESTOVER.

HIER, First Base. Doc played his first year of ' varsity baseball in a way that speaks well for a brilliant future with tfie team if he escapes the flunks. The Tall Handsome Blond, as the Indiana co-eds dubbed him. proved himself to be an able first baseman. His height is in his favor, and en- ables him to pull down the high and wide ones. He has the distinction of being the noisiest first sacker Purdue has ever had (?). Doc clouts the ball with a ven- geance. He is not so sure at the bat, but when he does meet it squarely he usually sends it to the woods. He cuts straight across at them and swings hard. He has two more years on the varsity, and it will take a fast BOLTZ, ' iekl. Cy played his third and last year on the ' varsity in a way that was pleasing to all the fans. The big center fielder and captain was respected by all his team mates, and his per- sonality was such as to get the most work out of them possible. His work at the bat was better by far than it was any year previous ; in fact, he became one of the hardest men to pitch to on the team. His waiting qualities and ability to pick out a ball or a strike when they were extremely close made him a valuable man to lead the batting order in games. He drew more walks than any other man on the team. Cy kept his batting average up near the top throughout the entire season. Home runs and three-baggers were not uncommon things in his column of hits. As a fielder he was above par. Always on his toes, ready to start the instant the ball was met, enabled him to take care of the center garden in tine shape. Whenever a fly went toward center field, the fans felt at ease, for Cy never muffed em. He could cover more ground in the field than any of the other fielders, and as a result he spoiled many long drives which looked like sure hits for the opposing bats- men. His fielding average was nearly perfect throughout the entire season, for he was never known to miss one that he could get his hands on, no matter what position he had to take it in. Besides being fast on his feet and a sure fielder. Boltz had a whip that was a peach. His long throws to the plate spoiled many chances for a victory for the opponents. Cy, on account of his general all-round good playing, was one of the greatest outfielders that ever wore a Purdue ba.seball uniform. He made a splendid captain, and wound up his baseball career in a blaze of glory here. His position is going to be hard to fill as ably as he filled it. 1 C. MYERS, Left Field. Jimmie played his second year on the ' varsity in a way th: pleased all the baseball fans. He sliowed much improvement ui der the tutelage of Nick, and his playing was much better tha it was the year before. He is a good fielder, and is fast enough c foot to cover his garden in fine shape. His long run and catch « a hard one in the Wisconsin game at Madison, which looked ticl eted for four bases, brought the crowd to their feet amid repeat cheers. He is a constant worry to the opposing infield from tl time he steps up to the bat until he is disposed of. His ability i bunt and heat them out has upset the infield more than once, home run in the Northwestern game and several two-baggei throughout the season demonstrated that Jimmie can do sonn thing rise brsides hunt. He had the highest batting average on tl learn for the .season of 1909. As fast as greased lightning on base he niade a dangerous man to be allowed to reach first base, took a mighty good catcher with a quick, accurate whip to prevei Do Camp from stealing second and sometimes third base. He hi been training for indoor track prior to the present baseball seaso an d should be even faster on his feet this season than he was la; year. The fact that he can bunt so well makes Myers a valuab man to pull o(T the stick work in a squeeze play. When it came 1 selecting a captain for the season of 1910 Myers was the unanimoi choice of all the baseball men. He is capable of handling th: position, for he enjoys the confidence of all the men and knows tl game from A to Z. BOLTZ. Captain R. SAKGENT, Right Field. Sarg played his first year on the team in a manner that is going to make some one hustle to beat him out of his position this season. Nick started him in behind the bat, where he played the first few games, but later shifted him to right field. His playing was of tlie caliber to warrant his holding that position the rest of the season. His work with the stick was such as to land him well up in the bat- ting average of the team. The games were few in which he failed to add a safe hit or two to the list. There is nothing exceptional about Sarg ' s playing, but he is one of the hard-working, con- sistent types of ball player, such that contribute to the making of a winning team. All through the season he covered the right garden in good shape, and allowed none of the drives to touch the ground which could be gotten under. Besides being a sure fielder, he backed up the throws to first in handy style. While Trag was sick Sarg took his place behind the bat at Greencastle, and put up a good game, in which he annexed a couple of timely runs. At Northwestern he pulled down a long drive over right field which looked like a home run sure, and which would have meant three runs for the Purple. Sargent ' s ability to catch a creditable game in case of an injury to the regular catcher makes him a valuable man to keep on the team. This season is his last one, for he grad- Sh Track and Field 1909 ndpoint, ot 1909 was a success from a Purdue ?n if she failed to win a majority of The meets on the schedule. The team showed an iniprovement over the team the year before, which reflects creditably on the worlc of Coach Wilson.

The Freshmen con- test was about the same as the ' varsity meet all the way through, except slower records were made. On May 16 the Boilermakers journeyed to Bloomington and pro- ceeded to wipe up the earth with Indiana. The day was a very bad one for a track meet. The evnts were run off in a rain and hail storm, which slowed down the time considerable, besides being very uncomfortable for the spectators. The Purduites took the lead from the first and main- tained it until the finish, finally winning by the overwhelming score of 79 to 47. In this meet five Purdue men won their P. Wason, Gannon, McFarland, McWayne and Charters have all worked hard and consist- ently, and easily deserve the honor of wearing the P which they earned in this meet. The hundred yard dash proved to be the big race of the day. Hench beat all his former records and even surprised himself as well as every one else by running the hundred yard dash from one yard behimi the line seconds flat. Two of the timekeepers caught the t at 10, which makes the result a certainty.

In the weight events Purdue carried off all three firsts by three different men, all of whom won their P. The Boilermakers also took all three seconds in the weights. In spite of the fact that the tf DR. HERMAN day was very disagreeable, the meet was a success, and the Purdue bunch were treated royally by the Indiana students. Chicago was taclcled next. May 23. on Mar- shall Field. The meet was close and exciting from start to finish. Purdue started out strong and was in the lead until the meet was two- thirds over, when Chicago forged ahead and maintained her lead until the finish. The meet was exciting from the spectators ' standpoint, lis all the events, with the exception of a couple, were very closely contested. Purdue lost the meet by being weak in the weights. Charters was needed on the baseball team the same day and was not available tor the track events. The Maroons took all the points in the shot put. Hench duplicated his record at Bloomington by winning the 100-yard dash in 10 seconds flat, three yards ahead of his closest rival. He also took the 220 dash in Tl :;-5, with a trio of yards to spare. Dan Heekin came to the front and won the iii.irter mile in 52 2-5, with a ten-yard gap be- ven him and the closest man. He also won ■ ond in the 220. Captain Kinkead, after ing beaten by a few inches in the half mile. ' line back strong an d ran a beautiful race in I III ' mile, winning it in easy style. Purdue was wfuk. as usual, in the jumps. Chicago took lliirtcen points of the eighteen in these events. The meet was a clean one in every way and was run off under ideal weather conditions. In the Conference meet Purdue only took six points. Hench won the 100-yard dash from a large field of entries, thereby making five out of the six points. The track season of 1909 was good, but the season of 1910 promises to be better if we can judge by the records made by the men indoors. Ralph Jones will coach the track men this spring.

Basketball Season 1910 SKETBALL has risen until now it occupies a liigh place in intercollegiate athletics. This great indoor game at one time was considered very tame and of a secondary nature to other athletics. Time has Iiroven the worth of the game as a great indoor win- ter sport to break the monotony between the foot- ball season and the track and baseball season. Play- ers have been developed to such an extent that now par with football when it comes to requiring endurance Purdue the game has continued to grow in popularity, the entire student body, as well as numerous city people, emorial gymnasium, with a seating capacity of fo or three and wind until at present tl attend the games. approximately 2,000, has been crowded to the doors, hundred standing on the track at all the Big Eight games. With a splendid floor on which to play, a good bunch of material and the best coach in the West to coach them, the prospects looked exceed- ingly bright tor a winning team before the season opened. Coach Jones, formerly of Wabash, took charge of the men about the first of December, and by the time Xmas vacation came around he had them going at a fast clip. Westover, captain, was forced to drop basketball on account of being declared a professional about this time. This dampened the prospects, as Westie ' s ability was well known to all. Dave Charters, the only other old man on the team, took charge of the squad as acting captain until he was elected permanent captain, and assisted Coach ,Tones in placing the men. With such men as Stockton, Miller, Creed, McVaugh, Fatout, Exton, Wil- son, Coster and others to draw from, the coach set about to pick a team and whip them into shape for the first game. By the time for the first game to be pulled off with Earlham came around the coach had a toler- ably smooth running five to put on the floor. All of them giants in size, they made a formidable appearance as they trotted out on the floor, and were given a rousing series of yells.

The trip up there, which at the very best, was made a misery for the s in the Northwest, which had entirely obliter- was one long, continual fight against the snow all the way up there, and the train made miserable time, sometimes only going a mile or two in an hour. To add to the uncomfortableness of things, there was no diner on the train, and the team was almost forced to live on snowballs. The train finally pulled into Minneapolis about two hours after the game was scheduled to be played. The crowd waited un- til the Boilermakers made a lightning change into basketball togs. AH worn out from the long trip and hungry as bears, the Purduites were a miserable bunch to meet a rested team. In their tired condition they were unable to stave off defeat, and were beaten, IS to 10. Stockton alone seemed to be at himself, and played a great guarding game. After a week ' s rest from the long trip, spent in putting the team work going better and rounding off the rough corners, Wisconsin was met on the local floor. The Purdue Giants were too fast for the Badgers, and almost doubled the score on them. The final score was 29 to 17. The game was fast all the way through, and went to the better team. The Wisconsin team used short passes and the dribble all the time, while the Purduites used the Jones style, long passes down the floor. The Badger coach ran in sub after sub to check the strong Purdue five, but to no avail. George Ade was at the game and presented his alma mater with a handsome silk American flag, 30x17, made in Japan, to hang in the gym.

The score was 35 to 9. the schedule was with Illinois at Champaign, and proved to be the downfall of Jones ' five. The Purdue team played an ex- ceptionall.v poor game at passing and goal shooting. The floor was much darker than the one here, and caused the boys no little worry. Creed was injured in the second halt by running into a dumbbell hook on the wall, but pluckily stayed in the game. The final score stood 33 to 17 in favor of the Suckers. The Boilermakers were again forced to bite the dust when they met Chicago on their own floor. The Maroons proved to be exceedingly strong in defense, as well as offense. Pat Page guarded close and refused to allow the Purdue forwards to get many clear shots at the basket. The team went into the game with a lack of confidence, and got what they were expect- ing — a good drubbing, the final score being 30 to 19. Indiana was met next at Bloomington and disposed of to the entire satisfaction of every one except Indiana supporters. Still remembering the crushing defeat in football game last fall, the basketball team went down with the determination to partially balance that defeat, and did a good job of it. Purdue took the lead early in the game, and maintained it throughout the second half. Indiana made a strong finish, hut were unable to forge ahead. Babe Charters played an exceptional game at center. He was pushed by his man all during the game, and as a result lot out some real basketball playing. Their team work was almost perteci and the coaching of .lones was beginning to bring noticeable results. The score at the end was 23-lS in Purdue ' s favor. Rose Poly was next given a severe drubbing at the hands of the Boilermakers in the Memorial gym., by the overwhelming score of 50 to 9. After the first three minutes of play the question became, not who would win, b it how big would the score be. Creed played a brilliant game. He was all over the floor, and succeeded in getting five beautiful field goals. McVaugh also annexed five, and big Dave rolled ten over the rim. He had an easy time of it, and at no stage of the game was pushed. The team loafed in the second half a lot after the game was cinched. Chicago again took Jones ' pets into camp when they came down to Lafayette, this time by a score of 2G to 17. The game was hard fought every second of time, and the Maroons won out simply because they were a shade better team. Charters was guarded too closely to score many. Indiana was given a sound drubbing when they came to Lafayette. The Boilermakers let themselves loose and ran up a regular track meet score. Every man on the team played a fine game, and the whole team played as a unit. The scoring kid proved to be big McVaugh. He did not stop until he had made eleven pretty baskets. When the Purdue quintet finished toying with the Crimson lads, the score board said 62 to 1,5. In a preliminary game the Purdue Freshmen beat the Indiana Freshmen 28 to 20. By the time the Suckers came over for a game the Giants had an- nexed another requisite to their list, confidence. The Illinois team had looked for pickings because they had just beaten Chicago o n her own floor the night before, but they were handed the short end of a 28-10 - of Gy score in a game that was spectacular from start to finish. It was not the poor playing of the Suckers that lost the game, but it was the jihenomenal work of the Giants that did it. The Minnesota game on the local floor was the closest and hardest fought game in which the Giants ' figured. The final outcome was in doubt until the final gong. Time and time the two teams were tied, but near the end the Boilermakers, by clever team work, forged ahead, and finally ended the game with a lead of two points, the score being 17 to l,-i. 216 The Gophers were a rough set and spoiled the Giants ' team work time and time again by deliberate fouling. The season closed with Wisconsin at Madison. The Badgers were strong and had little trouble in disposing of the Boilermakers by a score of 34 to 18. The past basketball season was a success, even if Purdue did land well down in the percentage column. The position in the percentage column does not indicate the true strength of the team. It does indicate, how- ever, that the quintet were too slow in acquiring confidence in themselves and lost out in the first few games. Every man on the team was an in- dividual star, and Coach Jones worked them up into a team that was sec- ond to none before the season closed. The fact that he could take a green bunch of men and make them into such a team speaks well for his meth- ods of coaching. Charters was given center on the All-Western team and tour of the men made places on the All-State team. A clear title to State championship was conceded to the Boilermakers.

Dave has an excellent eye for the basket, and on iucoiint of his towering height is able often to go in a crowd under the ba.sket and put tlie ball in by keeping it in the air above their heads. This past season was the second year for Charters on the team, and he showed much improvement over his playing the first year. He played under the basket most of the time, and rolled them over the edge as fast as they could be fed down to him. He became good in picking the long high passes out of the air. By virtue of his past experience lie was chosen captain when West- over was forced to quit the team. The greatest trouble with Dave lies In the fact that he is apt to get lazy and loaf on the job if tlie team gets several points ahead. He threw most of the foul goals last season, and made quite a record at it. By virtue of his all-round playing he was given a place on the All-Western team at center., and given the same position on the All-State team. He has one more year to play, and will have his position cinched for CHARTERS ?. CREED. Peetie played his first and last year on the ' varsity in whirlwind style, which makes all the fans wish to see him back next year. He made a splendid running mate for big McVaugh because lie was fast and could cover the floor in great shape. Creed was the runt of the team, and he was not so small, either. It was his duty to and limited quantities. His eye for the basket was fairly good, and he played the signals just right all the time. He did not get many field goals during the season in comparison to Dave or Mac, but this is L STOl KTON. Stock- was the old wai dog of t are of any two men in a pinch le team. He could take and many times proved this by guarding two men and coming out with the ball. He was about the hardest worker on the team, and never let up until the final gong sounded. Any one trying to rough it with Stock found out that they had butted their head into a stone wall. Whenever he broke loose with the ball and started down the floor, he was a dan- gerous man, for he had an eye for the basket that was exceedingly good. Strong of build, fast on his feet, and a good basket shooter, all go to make Stockton a valu- able guard. His all-round work landed him on the all- State team.

HSia The Stanley Coulter Cup BACK in the nineties well as she might ii come forward with : certain mark in track woi terested in Purdue athletii games even more closely track work probably and is invariably se uniew liei (■ I ' liidu ' ' didn ' t seem to be doing as track work, and this tact led Dean Coulter to handsome medal for those who would reach a . Stanley Coulter is a man who has been in- for a great number of years, and follows the han do a number of the students. He loves ell as any other man connected with the faculty. the idea of stimulating track work that he offered the medal. It was in 1900 that the offer of a handsome gold medal costing ap- proximately $30 was made to any Purdue student who would run the 100- yard dash in 10 seconds flat or better, while competing in a contest with some other school. The same offer was made to any one equaling or lowering the conference record of 21 3-5 seconds for the 220-yard dash. The offer still stands and will continue to stand as long as Dean Coulter is with us, or until the demand becomes too great for his pocketbook to stand. No man can win the medal twice. Very few people (in school) know of this standing offer, and this article may be hard on Dr. Coulter ' s pocketbook. 219 This offer stood for two years before any one became proficient enough in the 100-yard dash to come up to the requirements. In 1902 ' Victor Rice, ' 03, clipped off the 100 in 10 seconds flat, and thereby won the medal. There have been several aspirants for the same honor since, but for seven years no one became good enough to win the medal. From 1902 until 1909 Doctor Coulter ' s bank account was not diminished by buying medals. During the track season of 1909 H. B. Hench, ' 10, carried away the honors for the second time. In the Indiana meet at Bloomington on a strange track, he made the record of 10 seconds in the 100-yard dash. One tinier caught him at 9 4-5 seconds. He was a sure point winner in all the meets throughout the season, and wound up the season by winning the lOM-yard dash at the conference meet at Chicago. Doc has made a name tor himself in the dashes, for he is equally as good in the 220 as in the 100. He will complete his course this year. Hench chose a cup in prefer- ance to a gold medal, and the one shown on this page is the one he re- ceived. Here is a splendid chance for dash men of ability to win something more than points for their school. Out of 1,500 young men there should be more than two who can win this cup in ten years. The cup is a hand- some affair and ought to stimulate men to try for it in the dashes. A few more trophies of a similar nature would be perfectly in order. Hench. Winner of Cup. 1 CmSS COUNTRY 3SS COUNTRY running has become more and more poijular at Purdue each year. Last season a large squad trained faithfully by taking long five- mile runs over fields, down roads, up lanes, etc., as long as the weather would permit. I urdue has been interested in cross country running for the past three reasons and has sent a team to the annual intercol- legiate cross country run held at Chicago each year. The squad began early in Seiitember to take short runs, and by the time the team was picked to go to Chica go they were running the regulation distance in record time. Five men constitute a team, but a si. th was taken along as a sub. The individuals shown on the next page are the ones who made the trip to the annual run last fall. In this run Purdue secured third place, with Minnesota in the lead and Nebraska second. The wind was blowing a gale and cut the runners ' wind considerably. Wason, of Purdue, ran a great race, and finished first, well in advance of his closest competitor. Hoover. of Wisconsin. He covered the five-mile course in 27: OS, which broke the Conference record. The record will not stand, however, as all the run- ners cut a slice off the course in rounding the last turn at Cottage Grove Avenue and the Midway Plaisance. If Wason had been supported by his team, the race would have gone to Purdue. Minnesota won first place by bunching their men in the front ranks near the finish of the race. The race was the severest on the contestants in the history of the event, because of a westerly wind which blew against the runners most of the time. Several collapsed near the finish as a result. Since the new gym has been completed those who take part in the cross country runs each evening can have a place to dress. Before the men dressed in their rooms, which kept a great many from coming out. The value of cross country running is too often underestimated. It af- fords a means of exercise to those who do not get in other branches of athletics, and it strengthens the wind of the track men for the distance run. The university does not grant a P in this branch, but it does grant a C. P. C. to a man coming in first in the annual cross country run at Chica.!;o. J DEMAREE CUNNINGHAM McWAYNE.

Old Gold and Black. Wl Indoor Track Season 1910 |l -■) ij IIK indoor track season of 1910 proved to be very sue- Ui Sr I r i 1 essful from a Purduite ' s standpoint. The new gym iiffords an exrellent place to run oft the different ■vents in plain view of all the spectators. Winning I wo out of three meets by very decisive scores, and ;ilniost tying the third, is a record to be satisfied with, to say the least. This is practically the first season Purdue has had a chance to compete indoors in Uie i-vt-nls, and considering that she is new in the game, it was A re- markable record which was made, and speaks well for the future. The only lamentable fact about the entire season was that the Boilermakers did not get a chance at Chicago. Coach Jones took charge of the indoor track squad and coached them every chance he could get room in the gym. It was a faithful bunch that stuck by his rules and training do ' s and don ' t ' s. and the result can be seen. Besides developing the track men and getting them in condition tor outdoor work, the indoor season permitted Jones to become acquainted with the men. If we are to judge by their indoor performances, the track season of 1910 should be a success. The crowds at all the indoor meets far exceeded expectations. The gym was crowded at all the meets. The DePauw meet was the first and most poorly attended meet of the schedule. It was simply a case of the Methodists being out of their class. It soon became evident that the Purdue team was going to have a walk- awaj-. Purdue allowed DePauw only two firsts and a second. Grady took first in the 440 and second in the 40-yard dash. Walker took a first in the high jump. The two-mile run and the relay race were the most exciting races of the evening. Wason ran in great form, jiassing his man twice, and finishing two and a half laps ahead of him. The relay race was also wen by Purdue, with Myers. Nicol, Tavey and Gardiner running. The pole vault was not included in the meet. The team work of the men in the long runs was almost perfect. When Indiana caihe up to Lafayette the Boilermakers seemed to de- light in showing the Crimson track artists their heels. The Indiana dele- gation were allowed but two firsts and three seconds. Bonsib took first in the 440-yard dash and Johnson got first in the high jump. Richards was easily the star of the meet. The popular Purdue athlete won 14 points for his team, and showed his class in the hurdle races. His time in the hurdles was phenomenal. In the low hurdles he made the 40 yards in five seconds flat, which equals the world ' s record in this event and clips one-fifth of a second from the intercollegiate record. In the high hurdles he made the 40 yards in 5 2-5 seconds, which ties the fastest time up to date. He ran in grand form, and took the hurdles perfectly. Hench, in the 40-yard dash, made the fast time of 4 3-5 seconds, winning easily. The mile run was won easily by Cunningham, with McWayne second. The two-mile run was pie for Wason and Calvin. McWayne took the half mile from Bonsib, who was touted to win it easily. Richards and Gan- non tied for first in the pole vault, and Charters and Gardiner took first and second respectively in the shot put. The indoor season was closed with Illinois at Lafayette, February 26. The meet was exciting from start to finish, and until the pole vault was won by the Suckers, was anybody ' s meet. The Champaign team came over with the idea of having a walkaway, but instead were given a scare that they will not forget soon. The final score of 50i4 to 351;. is a true record of the relative strength of the two teams. Purdue failed to place in the high jump, which gave the Suckers a big boost. Purdue made four firsts and Illinois made six. In the 40-yard dash Purdue made a clean sweep Hench. Hoffman and Myers crossing the tape in the order named. Richards had an easy time in the high hurdles. The low hurdles were omitted, which meant the loss of another point by Purdue. Wason ran a pretty race in the two mile and won it by about one-half lap in 10 minutes 20 2-5 seconds. McWayne ran a sensational race in the mile, and nosed his man out by a few yards. His time was 4 minutes 44 2-5 seconds. The pole vault was the most hotly contested event in the sched- ule. To win two places in this and win the relay race meant a victory for Purdue. Murphy, of Illinois, finally won on a vault of 11 feet 6 inches. Gannon was second at 11 feet 3 inches. The relay race was won by the Suckers, after a hard fight. The largest crowd of the season wit- nessed the meet.

To meet this growing ilesire, the university appropriated the large field ' north of the Mechanical and Electrical Buildings for class athletics. A football and baseball field was graded off for each class. In this manner the maximum number of students derive the beneficial side of ath- letics. Regular schedules are made out in each branch of athletics and played out with a snap and rivalry that almost equals the varsity games. The athletic association stimulates class athletics by offering a handsome cup to the winning team in each of the branches. Each class offers extra inducements for those of its members who make the team by awarding each man the class numeral in much the same manner as the athletic association awards P ' s to ' varsity men. The beneficial side of class athletics is partially offset by tendencies which work against the ' varsity teams. Some men who think they are not quite good enough to make the varsity leave the squad and go over to the class team, where they are sure to win their class numeral. This leaves the regular varsity without a strong scrub team to urge them on to better playing in order to hold their positions on the team. Some men of ' varsity caliber go im- mediately to the class teams and do not even try out for the teams. ■While class athletics are no doubt beneficial to the student body as a whole, too much stress should not be placed on them. It should always be the ' varsity first and class teams secondly. The erection of the new shops has spoiled two of the class fields, and a shift will have to be made. The baseball diamonds will be moved north of Stuart Field, where the class football gridirons are situated. The new gym furnishes an ideal place for class basketball and the intense rivalry which existed last season between the different class teams shows that the big floor was put to good use in practicing. After many hard-fought games, the Freshman team succeeded in winning the class championship. The same class also took the football cup. The ' 10 and ' 12 baseball teams tied tor first i)lace. and the ' 10 and ' 11 track teams also tied at 44 points each for first place.

The organization, however, which for many years has taken an active part in the technical and scientific affairs of the University, was not changed in any important particular, and under the new regime promises to see a period of un- exampled prosperity. During the past year the society has not only given the members and others an opportunity to hear several good speakers, among them fac- ulty members and students as well as men in active engineering practice, but has maintained a reading room in the society ' s office, where the latest engineering periodicals have been con- stantly accessible. Besides thus stimulating interest in technical and .scientific subjects allied to Mechanical Engi- neering, the society gives its members an oc- casion for that interchange of opinions so bene- ficial in engineering lines. Indeed, its impor- tance and value to the undergraduate can hardly be overestimated. F. T. OFFICERS FIRST SEMESTER. KiuK. ' in Chairman Kku.y. ' 11 Vice Chairman J. CKsox, 10 Cor. Secretary .

Stage Carpenter .Assistant Stage Carpenter Electrician Musical Director History of the Harlequin Club : 1907 the Harlequin Club had its inception as a col- legiate dramatic organization with the presentation of The President of Oolong. From small begin- nings the club has steadily grown to a position in which it ranks not only among the first organizations ot Purdue University, but has taken a position among the first student dramatic organizations in the coun- try. During the space of three years, from 1907 to 191(t, the Harlequin Club has advanced from an original e.xpenditure for stage production of a few hundred dollars as a maximum to an annual expenditure of several times this amount. The Harlequin Club is the immediate successor to the Purdue Minstrel Association. It immediately departed from the production ot minstrel shows to plays of a more pretentious character. Mr. George Herbert was secured as dramatic coach, and under his direction The President of Oolong was staged and performed in Lafayette for two nights. May 15 and 16, and in Indianapolis on May 19, 1907. Mr. George Ade, the noted playwright, an alumnus and trustee of Purdue, saw the play and was so impressed by the good work of the club that upon the request of Mr. D. A. Reel, he wrote for the club The Fair CoEd, which was iiresented during the season of 1908. The general interest in the club, both on the part of the students and the public at large, increased to such an extent that Doc Harshaw, of the class of 1905, wrote The Junior in Command, which was staged in 1909. Mr. Ade in 1910 wrote The City Chap, and it is this play that the club presented this year. Through the efficient services of Mr. George Herbert, The City Chap has proven a fitting successor to the plays previously staged under his direction. The membership in the club includes all those who have taken part in the casts of all plays given and those who have been members of the mechanical and executive staffs engaged in the production of the plays. The board of control consists of two representatives from the faculty, the manager, the assistant manager, the treasurer, the musical director, the stage carpenter, the property man and the electrician. Believing that amateur dramatics are a valuable means toward a general education, the members of the Harlequin Club have chosen this form ot organization tor the accomplishment of this purpose.

Being a True Record of the Adventures Into Mysticisms of A. Shortliorn. On the 10th of January in the year of 1910 tliere arrived in Lafayette fresh from the thriving village of Aurora. Indiana, a young man by the name of James Deane Hill. With his keen, fearless eye, his light, jaunty step, and his glowing, innocent face, young Hill attracted much attention about the University. Although in Lafayette with the avowed intention of securing more knowledge with reference to proiier methods of hog- currying, sheep-shoeing, and calf-skinning, our young friend was not nar- row minded enough to confine his attention entirely to such menial pur- suits, but being of a somewhat devilish and sportive disijosition, chose rather to mingle with those of rather shady reputation who lurk in the shadow at Father Towsley ' s Emporium. On the 13th of January while loitering in said Towsley ' s Tavern, having bought well of salted peanuts for all of his new-made friends, and having laughed loud and long at specimens of his own Aurora wit, our friend Hill found himself in a pleasant if exceedingly unexpected position. A number of young men, seemingly of that same devilish and care-free disposition that he regarded as one of his greatest assets, entered Towsley ' s Tavern and at once recognizing in Mr. Hill a young man of exceptional possibilities, after some preliminary discussion proposed that said James Hill become a candidate for initiation into the mysteries of the K. K. G. Fraternity. Inasmuch as membership in this fraternity is at times com- pulsory and at no time desirable, it was indeed a surprise to see with what Joy Hill pinned upon his manly breast the fraternity colors. The K. K. G. yell resounded loudly throughout the Tavern and Hill was ushered forth into the night and led away to the local bean distillery and livery stable at which he was staying. On the 14th of January Candidate Hill was conducted to the Temple of the Mystic Order that he might worship at the Shrine of the Sacred Sirens. Before further proceedure was made, a test of the candidate ' s nerve was made. The President of the Inner Circle told of a sad accident that had happened in the University machine shoj). It seems that a young student had been attempting to sharpen his teeth upon the emery wheel in order to be able to eat the food furnished him in the West Lafayette boarding-house at which he was attempting to be nourished. Having sli:irpened all of his teeth but one large molar, he attempted to bring it ■ iIm ' hiIm . iiHiMi.iii. Unfortunately a small remnant of one of Julius Eck- li I ii I- nff the hoot came in contact with the wheel. It is need- le I ' I III! itie wheel was broken in fragments. Remnants of both in-l.iii :iini «iir,.| were hurled in all directions, the remnant of tender stc:il pcni ' tniting the brick wall of the machine shop and killing a cow two miles away on the Purdue Farm. Candidate Hill seemed much inter- ested in the narration of this bit of Purdue hi; recital did he show the least sign of fear. A number of statistics were now taken. Name in full— James Deane Hill. Age Average grade at high school — 90 per cent. Diameter of head — 7 inches. Birth|)Iace — Aurora. Dearborn County, Indiana. Deportment — Devilish. Weight — 165 pounds. Candidate Hill then paid over to the Inner Coun 51.50 and was congratulated by all present. As ' ; time signed the following document: 1 1 COHTBAOT. I ' James fil l desiring to booone K. K. G.

Section of SiiNi 7:55 A.M. — Seniors quietly assembled in tlie class-room. 7:58 A.M.— Senior: Wish that guy would hurry! 8:00 A.M.— As the last echo of the chimes die away, the indignant Seniors in chorus: Let ' s go! Grand march begins. In the hall they are met by Albright yiolently waving his arms and shouting, Stop! stop! Seniors, crestfallen, stop, execute an about face and slowly in funeral style file back into the class-room. Albright— I shall not attempt to describe how such conduct grieves me, so we will go immediately into the lesson. Mr. Schonert, tell all you know about the lesson. ScHOKERT (stifling a yawn) — I don ' t know nothin ' ' bout it. Albright — That is very good so far as you have gone. Anything SCHONEET — Nope. Albright — Best recitation in si-K months. A low rumbling is heard, which increases to a roar mingled with the rattling of window panes and violent swaying of the building. Faint indi- cations of a smile play over the faces of the Seniors, for this is an indica- tion that the Juniors are disturbing one of Mike ' s freshmen shop lectures. Albright — I believe there is no immediate danger, so we will proceed. Mr. Quick, what is a slope stake? 337 Quick (scratching hi: stake is a stal e that whe means that the dirt must of the track.

It was so large that it had a four-inch vitrified sewer pipe for a reach rod, took eight men to ring the bell and had a dinky engine attached to blow the whistle. I went out one night to oil up and found four hoboes playing cards in a grease cup. Albright — Well, that was a whopper! Class excused.

Before him. in solemn conclave assembletl, sat the members of the Midnight Club. The air was blue with tobacco smoke and euphonious accents of a deep purple floated carelessl.v into si)ace. The question before this Most August Body was the selection of the All-Class Water Boy. The Dopester had just finished a large cut of cranberry pie and was fast declining into a state of anaesthesia, the members being on hand to take down his ravings. There was an Electrical there, to prevent the Dopester from taking an ampere turn should his ravings reach 8 K.V.A.: a Mechanical, to prevent condensation in the cylinder with constant entropy; a Civil, also to prevent dangerous flexure. The smoke grew thicker and thicker, and, as from the Delphic Oracle of old. came the voice of the Dopester: Hear ye, all ye assembled bunch of Rough Necks, who at the witching hour of night fire the faculty and make night hideous with your yarns, have ye not observed that one. who in a green cap marreth the appearance of Stuart Field, and who hunteth up the coach and demandeth a football suit in order that he may carry H.O to the members of his team? Such industry merits reward. There- fore I declare one Lowry the All-Class Water Boy. The mutterings grew fainter and fainter, the smoke thinner and thinner, and the lights dimmer and dimmer. ' Tis over.

' s) absorbed by the ice cream? Parody— If the same man did eat the ice cream, how high wmiM hr have to climb to nie ' .l the cream? Another — Assuming that this man was up a high ladder and drank ' :; pound of cream, how far would he have to come down to freeze it?

Where rough-neck students feed; And there were men ot colors strange. And every different breed; And fearsomely they cussed and lied, And burned the filthy weed. They lied about the folks at home That gave them scanty cash; They lied about the Profs at school, (Their words were very rash, For they had eaten all too long Of Father Towsley ' s hash). They told their tales ot wreck and wrong. Of Highbrows stern and tight. Of flunking out and other griefs, They moaned their bitter plight. They cussed and swore — when in the door There came a joyful sight. ' Twas unsophisticated James, A Short Horn bold and rash. Who carried in his pocketbook His scanty store of cash To pay for penny postal cards And necessary hash. And there was Boom of football fame. And Brother Richard B., And other members of the Frat. Ot noble K. K. G. And Brother Cramer egged them on To spike this prodigy. For there were men of other Frats Who sought this candidate. They longed to take him in with them — They sought him for a mate. They strove, they strained to win his smile, They offered all their bait. 343 But James deliberated long, Xot knowing what to do; He looked at both, he longed to join, He pondered o ' er the two. The more he pondered o ' er the Frats, The more their ardor grew. The K. K. G. ' s grew They swore they ' d have their way; They gave their yell, it cast its spell. For them it won the day. And James D. Hill, with throbs of joy. Became their willing prey. (That yell I ' d scarcely dare repeat. It was so wild, and wierd, and sweet. It draws men ' s hearts from out their breasts It casts a mystic spell; And even tight wads such as James, It draws them from their shell.) They pinned the colors on his breast With joy they shook his hand; And James D. ' s head grew twice its size. His smile serene and bland. That B. S. they were handing him He did not understand. That night in Brother Richard ' s room The candidate we see. Before the Council he had come To take the first degree- But first of all they asked for his Initiation fee. They took his name, they took his age, They took his place ot birth; They took his color, height and weight. The size of chest and girth— They took all data they could take. No matter what its worth. They hooked the unsuspecting James And pocketed the dough; They gave him his certificate And told him he could go. The proceeds suited very well To take them to the show. Comparative Efficiency Test of Mechanical Engineering Professors. The object of this experiment linown machines and mechanisms, usually carried. Apparatus used: Venturi meters, wage scales, mind readers, slip sticks, B. T. U. catchers, carburetting governors, calibrated log boards, CO detectors, Orsat apparatus, card indexes, faculty rules, rope drives, toggle joint presses. Smart ' s manual, whistle jumpers, left-hand monkey wrenches, old man, dice box, midnight oil, and IngersoU watches borrowed fro m KHpsch and Cole. Sample calculations: Efficiency is equal to the ratio of the work that has been performed to that which should have been performed x 100. Taking Veal ' s efficiency as an illustration. Po=0 P—1. _Po_0 i=0 efficiency 2x Conclusion: From the results of the tests we are rather surprised at the Dean ' s low efficiency. However, Percy, by using the well-known com- ])Ound, fell below the Dean, but escaped an absolute zero by a narrow mar- gin. Two of the readings had to he thrown out. We refer to that of Veal and Johnson, who are continually running at no load, trying to find some escape from work so that they can scheme against Seniors in Graphic Statics. Another peculiar point in the test is the low efficiency of Jimmie. The only way we can account for this is the use of the pepsin pills. We would suggest that further tests be made with the pills elimi- nated to find the drop in efficiency due to the pills, or else determine the B. T. U. value of the pills. The tests on Klispch and Ludy are very startling, and their methods ought to be observed by those who want to improve themselves. Cole ' s heat value no doubt had something to do with his high efficiency. It is recommended by the delinquent committee that Benjamin, Hoffman, Munro, Percy, Brommer and Raber take the test in March, and that Veal and .Johnson be politely, but firmly, sent home.

Plumb gave up the ghost in his house on Waldron Street, And a spirit came to his bedside and grijiped him by the feet. A si)irit gripped him by the feet and carried him far away, Till he felt the jolt of a millivolt as they passed the Milky Way- Till they heard the roar of the Milky Way lie down and drone and cease, And they came to the gate within the wall where Peter holds the keys. Stand up, stand up, now H. T. Plumb, and answer loud and high The good that ye did for the Studes of Purdue, or ever ye came to die. The good that ye did to the bunch of Studes who say ye did them dirt. And the naked soul of H. T. Plumb grew white as a hard-boiled shirt. O 1 had a job in ' Lectric Lab, and it was my chief delight To load the Studes to their very ears and work them day and night. For that ye strove to make them flunk, it shall be written bad; But now ye wait at Heaven ' s Gate and not in ' Lectric Lab. Should we call your class from the earth tonight they would but curse ye sharp, For none may hope by ' Lectric Dope to earn a golden harp. Then H. T. Plumb looked up and down and little gain was there, For the naked stars grinned overhead and he saw that his soul was The wind that blows between the worlds it cut him like a knife. And H. T. P. took up his tale and spoke of his good in life. Xow this I have read in Karapetoff and that was told to me. And that I have read in Hutchinson and that in the A. I. E. E. The good souls flocked like homing doves and bade him clear the path. And Peter twirled the jangling keys in weariness and wrath. Ye have read, ye have thought, ye have lied a lot, and ye wish to pass the gate. Though ye flunked five studes in ' Lectric Lab on a grade of GS. Then H. T. P. looked back and forth and little good it bore. For the darkness stayed at his shoulder blade and Heaven ' s Gate before. Oh this I have thought and this I have guessed and that I have heard men say. And this they wrote that int in Germany. ' Ye have guessed, ye have blulfed, ye have lied enough. Ye have hampered Heaven ' s Gate; There ' s little room between the stars in idleness to prate. Oh none may earn by ampere turn or gilbert, volt or ohm To pass in state the noble gate that guards the Heavenly Home. Get hence, get hence to the Lord of Wrong, for he will greet ye well. If he Hnds ye worth an upper berth in a single room in Hell. The Spirit grii)ped his unshorn locks and sun by sun they fell. Till they came to the belt of naughty stars that rim the mouth of Heli. The first are red with pride and wrath, and the next are white with pain; But the third are black with clinkered sin that cannot burn again. They may hold their path, they may leave their path, with never a soul to hark ; They may burn or freeze, but they must not cease in the scorn of the outer dark. The wind that blows between the worlds it nipped him through the hide. And he yearned to the flare of the Hell gate there as the light of his own fireside. The Devil he sat behind the bars where the desperate legions drew. And he caught the hasting H. T. P. and would not let him through. Wot ye the price for B. T. U. that I must pay, said he, That ye rank yoursel ' so fit for Hell and ask no leave of me? I ' ve many a friend on earth, I ' m sure, that I do not recognize; So I would learn if ye ' re fit to burn before ye pass inside. Sit down, sit down upon the slag, and answer loud and high. The harm that ye did to the Studes of Purdue or ever ye came to die. And H. T. P. looked up and up and saw against the night A three-phase ohm and a microphone, and it made his head feel light. And H. T. P. looked down and down and saw beneath his feet The passing ghost of a misspent fiux, and he longed to feel the heat. Oh I had a job in ' Lectric Lab and I played with ' lectric sparks. And if ye deign to let me in I ' ll wire all Hell for flaming arcs. All that ye spout could be true no doubt, but from what the students tell I ' d hardly choose to let ye loose in a single spot in Hell. Though ye ' d promise me to do it tree and pay a sum beside; Unless ye ' ve sinned ye can ' t come in to the light and heat inside. The wind that blows between the worlds it cut him like a knife. And H. T. Plumb took up the tale and spoke of his sin in life. Oh I am one on the Cheating Com., and many a flrst-class man I have sent your way in the hope some day of joining your noble clan. The Devil he blew on a branded soul and set it aside to cool. Do ye think I would waste my good pit coal on the hide of a brain- sick fool? I see no worth in the hobnailed mirth or the jolt-head jest ye did That I would awaken mv gentlemen that are sleeping three on a grid. ■ Electricals, to a man, deny absolutely Well, this I can tell to admit to Hell, and I ' m pretty sure ' twill do; I stuck one Stude in ' Lectric Lab and flunked him on 72. The Devil cursed and he shook his head, and questioned him afresh — Have sinned one sin for the pride of the eye or the sinful lust of flesh? Then H. T. P. he gripped the bars and yammered. Let me in — For I went to the vaudeville one night, and that is a deadly sin. The Devil he grinned behind the bars and banked the fires high. Did ye copy that sin from a Stude? and H. T. P. said, Aye. I ' he Devil he bowed his head on his breast and rumbled deep and low. I love Purdue too much, ' tis true, that I should let him go. Yet close we lie and deep we lie, and if I give him place My gentlemen that are so proud would flout me to my face. They ' d call my house a common stew and me a common host: And I would not anger my gentlemen tor the sake of a shiftless ghost. The Devil he looked at the long-horned Plumb who longed to feel the flame; And he thought of Holy Charity, but he thought of his own good name. Now ye could baste my coal to waste and sit ye down to fry; Did ye think of that sin for yourself? said he, and H. T. P. said Aye. The Devil he blew an outward breath, tor his soul was free from care. Ye have scarce the soul of a louse, he said, but the roots of sin are there. And for that sin ye should come in were I the lord alone, But sinful pride hath rule inside and mightier than my own. For college men are thick within, and if I ' d let you through They ' d wreck the place before my face and surely kill me too.

Talkin ' about ridin ' portation outfit in Lafaye Icnowledge of that car sys o( yours, slip me your trc he bumpers. Pal. take It from me. that trans- te has anything wliipped to a standstill. If the :em has never penetrated that perpetual vacuum jbles, and I ' ll bet your grudge against ridin ' the bumpers won ' t last as long as a snowball in Hades. The saddest experience of my valuable life. Pal. was the night I rode on the Lafayette car system. I was a young and promising chap then, taking a science course at Purdue University. Now you see I ' m an old, hoary headed man of twenty-nine. Purdue is some place, I ' m tellin ' you, and if it hadn ' t a been for the Faculty, I ' d a been there yet. But comin ' back to that night. I got one of them go-carts at seven forty-five. I waited on the darn thing one hour and twenty-three minutes. In that time I run out of cuss words, and had to throw in a few of them similes and metaphors what 1 learned in White ' s English Class. Finally, when I couldn ' t think of anything else to say, I just set down on the track and said. Why don ' t the damn thing come? Well, finally the street car came, er that is. that ' s what the company calls it; but it looks more like a box car with a candle for a headlight than anything else. Looks like a box car all right, all ' cept in the color. Say, Pal. you ortter see the color on them things; it certainly would rattle your slats some. Kind of a purplish yellow dotted with mahogany blue, and striped with Rhode Island red. The whee:s were like one of them things 1 read about when I took geometry, called a ellipse. I think they must ha ' been donated by that guy called Ben Hur. what won all them chariot races. Must ha ' been after he ' d had a wreck though. Springs? Hor! Hor! Pal; all they got in that line is in the cash register. What does it look like inside? Well, when you first get on the darn thing you find yerself in the smoker. Gee, but its a whopper. Almost big enough for a folding tooth brush, and the floor is all covered with to- baccer juice mixed with nicotine. From here you go on into the next room, which is the most uncomfortable place I was ever in. The ventila- tion is just about as good as in -Doc Bond ' s classroom, and yer can set down it ther don ' t happen to be anybody else in there. In the other end of this power wagon is a man what coaxes the juice from the unknown. The juice comes now and then, but when it comes to a hill the darn thing stops right along side of one of the Humane Society ' s signals. Sometimes it refuses to leave its restin ' place, and just rotates its old. flat wheels; but she never moves. Finally the head oarsman, if he has sand enough, will let out a few curses, and the thing is off at a speed of about six meters per hour. When the blame thing once gets started, it can only be stopped by the commandin ' matism till he can ' t ring uj: is the second place the Co this vehicle yer just signal meral of the rear end, who usually has rheu- fares; but he can reach the bell rope, which ' has a pull. When yer want ter get off of the guy on the rear end, like a woman bids at a auction of dress goods; he pulls the rope, and the Lord High Protector of Human Life on the front end does the rest. The time schedule is a corker. Cars wobble sometimes every fifteen minutes; but now they say it has come to be better late than never. But when you do get the thing, say, it ' s great ridin . You can only get the same sensation by ridin ' a three-wheeled stage coach over the Rocky Mountains through a snow storm, and then there is somethiu ' lackin ' . Say. Pal. don ' t ever let me hear you kick about a few bumps on this steam road. Why, ridin ' these bumpers is sleepin ' in a feather bed com- pared to that street car system they got up there. Lay over, Pal, you had all the bed last night. A Dream. Scene: A quiet little poker game. The Players; Ransom, Moran, Ferry and Marshall.
