Here we have mingled favorable comment with gentle jibes, cajolery with truth and fact with fancy. If we have been over- zealous in our effort to jest or to commend, we crave the reader ' s indulgence. Should the content oj this volume suffice to recall pleasant memories on a long winter evening, should it help to rejuvenate the old Purdue spirit and bring back happy recollections of Jour years in college, we shall be well content, for so it is intended.

This act appropriated public lands to the several States for the purpose of aiding in the main- tenance of colleges where the leading objects shall be, without excluding other scientific or classical studies and including military tactics, to teach such branches of learning as pertain to agriculture and the mechanic arts. The State accepted from John Purdue and other citizens of Tip- pecanoe county donations amounting to $230,000 and pledged its faith to the ade(|uate and perpetual maintenance of the institution. The name Purdue University was established bv a legislative act of 1869. The purpose of the University is to offer to the young men and women of Indiana an opportunity to acquire a good college educa- tion along general lines and at the same time to secure instruction and practice in such lines of work as will fit them to engage in the practical industries. 1874-1912. Instruction was first begun at Purdue in 1874 and the first class, consisting of one man, was graduated in 1875. Since that time the growth and development of the institution has been very .remarkable. The total number of alumni has increased from one in 1875 to over four thousand in 1912. The enrollment of students now appro.ximates 2,000, while the instructional corps has steadily increased to nearly 200. From the general Science, Agriculture and Engineering courses offered in the early days of the institution the University has grown to maintain schools of Civil. Mechanical, Elec- trical and Chemical Engineering, Agriculture, .Applied Science and I ' liarmacy. PRESIDENTS. Richard Owex 1872-1874 Abhaham C.

The following year, under the (Hrection of Abraham Shortridge. six buildings were completed, two members added to the instructional corps, and -the enrollment in- creased to sixty-four. During the following eight years the Uni- versity developed rapidly under the leadership of Emerson E. White. Military Science was introduced, the courses systematized, and Uni- versity Hall and the Agriculture building completed. In 1883 the faculty numbered twenty and the enrollment of students two hun- dred and fifty-four. James H. Smart occupied the presidency from 1883 to 1900, and during this time great things were accomplished. The Phar- macy course was added, the Junior Preparatory course abolished, shops erected, schools of Civil, Mechanical and Electrical Engineer- ing established, and the Experiment Station and Mechanical build- ings built. The Mechanical building burned soon after completion and the present one was erected. During the past twelve years President Stone has gtiided the University successfully and efficiently. These latter years have witnessed the completion of Fowler Hall, Civil, Electrical, Physics and Chemistry buildings, besides the central power plant. Memorial gymnasium, new Experiment Station, Applied Mechanics building. Judging pavilion and numerous farm buildings. Provisions for a new $100,000 library have already been made and building opera- tions will commence soon. A large amount of sane state legislation has been secured and others are being petitioned for. 13 — I I SIC 31 THE 1 12. i: EBF I S IC aim History of Past Year eks in September, 1 ' ' 12. saw the influx Imnfh nf Seniors in anticipation of the 0 ' ITJ lonsj-desircd enrduroy years and what the harvest l yl ll ll Ve started in on the last lap on September II i lf ril2 t II I4t],. liut nut until we had helped swell the annual ])arade which marches up the stone steps to the Den, from which only a few of the lucky ones were immune for tlie remainder of the semester. Due to the small demand for campus tickets by the Freshmen, the proceeds of which help reim- burse the upper classman for his registration fee, our trips across the levee were not so frequent as they might otherwise have been, Ml we were content with Tank Scrap preparations. These were of little avail, however, as the Juniors ' proteges were victorious after 2i minutes of honest endeavor, turning a trick never before known in Tank history — that of defeating a bunch who had been victorious the previous year. Following this first great excitement, college work along educa- tional lines interfered with history making; but even here our path was not without monotony-breaking details. Due to a shake-up in the Civil department our advance along hydraulic lines was com- promised by rapid-fire changes of profs, until we received one who piloted most of us safely across the dams and eddy currents to the end of the semester. We were sorry to note the absence of two of our old friends. Prof. Hofifman and Prof, Ludy. Prof. Hofifman, we fear, is lost to us completely, having gone to Nebraska to accept the position as dean of the engineering schools ; but we await the return of Prof. Ludy from Wisconsin, where he is now located on leave of absence. The course in Chemical Engineering has received a boost, also, as it now can boast of its own instructional corps, which it lacked in the past. The new library approached a more concrete form, due to the letting of the building contract, which, in the fitness of things, went to a Purdue alumnus. After a few such minor details football season started in with a rush — downward. On October 7th the two upper classes marched on the fi eld in distinctive corduroys and hats, only to sit in agony and see Wabash pull the long end of a 3-to-O score, a defeat wliich G, D, Miner — Convocation has improved this year — so I have heard. 31 mil! Ill THB i iz. e e:br i s ice mm no amount of yelling was able to turn to victory. The very next Saturday, however, justified our confidence in Big Bill Horr. when 600 rooters went to Chicago and returned feeling that Chicago ' s ll-to-3 victory was but another indication of Chicago luck, and not of our strength. After a lapse of two weeks, calculated to brush up our football science, we managed to nose out DePauw by the score of 5 to ; but again on November 4th Old Gold and Black showed her true quality wlien Illinois, considered for a while as prospective champions, could not do better than 12 to 3 and, in the last quarter, were played oflf their feet by one of the best exhibitions of whirlwind attacks put through by Purdue in many years of football history. November 11th was a big day and night. Iowa 11, Purdue — upon which we shall not dwell further, and the big levee storm, sur- passed only by the big wind of ancient history in Ireland. Build- ings were leveled and college studies made impossible by the destruc- tion of six blocks of electric light and telephone lines on the levee. A return to old-time form on November 18th tumbled Rose Poly ' s victory aspirations to the tune of 33 to 6. And then came the biggest day Purdue has had in athletics for many a moon. Two trainloads of Purdueites overran Bloomington and the team ran over Indiana 12 to 5, with several more touchdowns resting in the shad- ows of the goal posts. Only the sea of mud on the field kept Horr ' s wonderful repertoire of plays from running the score sky-high. It was a day for the Seniors to look back upon and congratulate them- selves upon being present at the killing. With the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays to break the monotony, we looked forward to the basketball season and. having four veterans to build a team upon, could see nothing but a string of victories ahead. They came with no defeats interspersed to spoil a 1000 per cent, season, the first in conference basketball since 1908. The stories of the games are all alike — possibly a little more or less opposition here and there, but in the final count the championship five took in strange teams and strange floors without ever being able to test its true strength. Outside of athletic events, interest was afforded by the Ex- ponent by the war on express and street car service. The effect in the first case is easily seen by the presence of three express offices on the West Side, but up to the present time, the street cars still re- tain their resemblance to Noah ' s Ark of old. The Student Council, also, got busy, and through their efforts and Exponent co-operation, a ban has been placed upon the whole- sale erection of class memorials about the campus, an excellent sub- stitute being offered by the establishment of a Purdue Union fund, which, it is assured, will grow to useful proportions in the near future. Burrage — We l □ IC Tuesday, but probably on ■Wednesday. ' 31 mic 31 THB I IZ. E)EBFCI S IE Slim At the present writing we, as Seniors, may claim a most varie- gated year in which we are completing our college career. We have lived through the most successful foothall and basketball seasons, worst storms and longest winter that any Senior class has had the pleasure of experiencing for many years, and we look forward to the remainder of the year, anticipating winning baseball and track teams, inter-scholastic baseball and track tournaments, conference meet and Gala Week, which marks the parting of the ways. We leave in the hopes of returning at many reunions to watch the prog- ress in which we, at one time, took part. Schuler — The Tau Bates are good in spots, but there are few spots. 31 EDIC II THE ic ia r BF RKS I T jQSTEES OFFICERS DiEi:] BOARD OF TRUSTEES. George Ade Brook. Charles Downing Greenfield.

While the original school at the University was tor the purpose of teaching agriculture, the growth of the engineering schools has been so rapid that at the present time they bid fair to outdistance the agricul- tural department. There are opportunities here for a student to fit him- self for any of the engineering professions, such as Civil, Mechanical, Electrical or Chemical Engineering. While these courses have more or less in common, they each have in their own buildings the necessary equipment to give a most thorough training in this department, and to give ample facilities for specialization. The courses are so outlined that the worl of all who enter the University as engineers start alo-g t i ' same fundamental lines, with a slight differentiation during the second year, a greater one in the third year; until the fourth and last year, when the courses are so arranged that they give ample opportunity for special- ization. The equipment of the various laboratories is such that they permit the application of theory to direct practice to a greater degree than most of the schools of this nature. The equipment at the present time is so elaborate that the tendency now is more towards the refinements than towards new and heavy machines. In this connection might be mentioned the establishment in the gas engine laboratory of the equipment for a complete gas and coal analysis; the new oil-testing machine in the heat- ing and ventilating laboratory; and the balancing transformer that has recently been installed in the electrical laboratory. Beginning with the present school year the School of Chemical En- gineering was put on the same footing as the other engineering schools, with a head for the department and a faculty separate from the chemis- try department. With this new arrangement the School will be much stronger than ever before. The Purdue locomotive, Schenectady No. 3, has recently been equipped with a modern superheater, so that it is now possible to make investiga- tions of the performance of a locomotive with a high degree of superheat, a feature tliat is attracting a great deal of attention in the railroad world. The apparatus and equipment used in connection with the electric street car has been increased, so that it is now possible to ascertain the performance of a car under any condition that is possible in road service. The engineering faculties have undergone but few changes during the past year, as a result of whicli the organization has become more thorough and the administration more efficient. It Is due to this organ- ization that the Purdue Engineers are always in demand and the high standards maintained. 31 - ' - ' D QQI J I JJJU j: j 1 1 COIC ai THE 1 12.

E)EBR I S IE aim Another year, anrl the interest in the Agricultiu ' al Shurt Course is well evidenced by the increased number in attendance, the Class of 1912 having the largest enrollment in the history of the course. Almost every county in Indiana is represented and the vi lespread- ing advantages of the work brought to us this year several stu- dents from Illinois and Ohio. Each year the Winter Course reaps better material where many fertile seeds are sown and from whence much good is harvested. The science of agriculture is yet in its infancy and we are coming to realize more and more that we must equip ourselves for that great factory, the field. A good foundation is absolutely essentia! to any structure and so our Winter Course, which was completed recently, will doubtless prove to be a most worthy sub-structure upon which to erect a scientific knowledge of our chosen occupation. The Winter Course Agricultural .Association was again formed and a great deal of benefit and pleasure derived therefrom. Sev- eral debates were held in which the general student body took quite a considerable interest. The Domestic Science Department had a very creditable enrollment and. as two of its students were claimed as brides, some of its theories and teachings will very probably re- ceive practical application in the near future. Ve placed our insignia, S. H. on the tank but our desire for a second tank scrap vanished as our interest began to center in the gymnasium, where the tugs of war and pushball contests absorbed our surplus energy. During our stay in the University we have made many profitable acquaintances which will form a bright spot in our memories in time to come. It is with pleasure that we shall look back upon our short term as members of the University and, after we have left the dear old campus, we shall ever be glad to speak a good word for old Purdue.

The Clore bill, providing for this deiiartment. placed the farmers ' institutes, which had previously been maintained by a separate fund, under this department. Although the extension work is not entirely new with the University, under the new organization and with the additional appropriations much greater results are being achieved. The work of this department is to carry the work ot the Experiment Station and School of Agriculture to persons not in attendance at the Uni- versity. The different lines of extension work taken up are greatly varied in character, some cf the more important ones being Farmers ' Short Courses, Educational Trains, Demonstrations, Exhibits and Contests cf various kinds. The influence cf this department is wilely felt; and it is doing much for better agriculture in Indiana. JICORGE IRVING CHRISTIE. AZ. Superintendent of Agricultural E::tension. B.S.

EDI ' i m m sii THE 1 12. de:br i s ■ ■- - j M ii uu n t Albright — In general, It ' s done this way. iNl nuELLEn-_ Eom The Purdue Alumni Association anEZ] ll«S ' w5 ' 3Pll ' ' interesting to the Akunnus to trace the growth l l of the University. The first grackiating class, L l l C ' ' ' ' ' 1875, had one member, J. B. Harper. tj ' M ' WsV The Class of 1885 had eleven members. The L s f Class of 1895 had one hundred and twelve. The | |Jg ° i-: J (gC|| Class of 1905 had two hundred and twenty-six. l!y way of general information. I may add that it took twenty years to reach the one hundred mark, there being one hundred and three members in the Class of 1894. In the next ten years, we doubled, there being two hundred and seventeen members in the Class of 1904. The question naturally arises : will we double again, or in other words, will there be over four hundred members in the Class of 1914? It seems safe to predict that there will, as the Class of 1911 had three hundred and thirty members. Now, it has often been said, that it is not quantity but quality, that we are after. I am willing to grant this, and yet it is quantity that counts when there is work to be done. Four Thousand alumni, if they get together, could move the world. The only way to accomplish this is by way of close organiza- tion. At present there is a General Alumni Association with seven- teen local Associations. The General Alumni Association was founded June 11, 1878. The four offices were filled by the four alumni in orrler of their class seniorit) ' . President. J. I!. Harper. 75 ; Vice President, C. J. P.ohrer, ' 76 ; Secretarv, W. K. Ehlridge. 77 ; Treasurer, F. P. Clark. 78. At the Charter meeting were all the alumni of the classes of 75, 76, 77, four in all. The general constitution provided that all who received the B. S. degree would be entitled to membership, while graduates of special schools should be eligible for election. The General Alumni .Association today has a membership of line thousand two hundred and fifty, out of three thousand eight hundred and seventy-four alumni, the condition imposed being the payment of an annual due of fifty cents. In case one affiliates with a local branch, the fee is divided, one half going to the local chapter. The present officers of the General Association are: President. W. J. Jones, ' 91 ; Vice President, G. Spitzer, ' 89; Secretary, R. B. True- blood. ' 02; Treasurer, W. .M. Xye, ' 00. These officers also consti- tute the executive committee. Of the local associations, the oldest is the Indianapolis branch, that having been founded in 1890. The next oldest is the Chicago branch. The Chicago Association has three hundred and fifty members, any one who has attended the University being eligible fur incnilicrsliip. The two latest branches are those of Milwaukee and S]ii kanc. tliey having been organized only last year. The mu-t important matter now before the General .Associa- tion is in connection with the loan scholarships. In order to bring the members of the present graduating class, it may be well to give a brief resume. In 1872 the Alumni Association had a balance of sixty dollars available for the scholarship fund. It was voted that one half the balance in the treasury each year, be used as a basis for a fund, the interest of which should be available for scholarship uses, and that the other half of the balance should be at once avail- able for the scholarship fund. Today there is a scholarsliip fund of $1,200 which is loaned at present to thirteen men. I might add, as a matter of great pride, that there has not been one cent lost since the fund has been in existence. In regard to the scholarships. I might explain that the money is loaned to deserving stui ' ents, preferably Juniors or Seniors. These scholarships are thus the means of enabling men to graduate who w-ould otherwise be forced to give up. The Executive Com- mittee awards the scholarships. The candidates are judged by these three points: scholarship, character and wliether thcv are deserving — every candidate filing his crcikntiaK inv thi purpose. And now for the part tliat the Local Ahiniiii Assnciatinns play in the matter: during the past year a sclmlarship of unc hundred dollars was subscribed liy the local associatinii of Cleveland. The Class of l ' ' ll(. also subscribed one hundrcil dollars. The local As.so- ciation at I ' uriiuc is also soliciting at present for a scholarship. As there are over two hundred alumni in Lafayette, it woold seem as if a scholarship were assured. In conclusion, I beg to state that we should like to infuse the Purdue Spirit into every person who goes out from Purdue. Join the General Association before you leave in June, and as soon as you are settled in your new location join a local chapter. Carolyn E. Siiokmakkr. :ir EmiE Zll THE 1 12.

DBBF I S IE aim TER a vacation of two weeks the 1911 Seniors returned to the campus for one of the most en- joyahle festive occasions ever experienced at Pur- Alumni, old and young, had arrived to take the place of departed undergraduates. The whole University had taken on a new asjject. and instead of a place for the pursuer of knowlc lge fiiiind a resort for the care-free seeker of jjleasure. The Daccalaureate sermon of June clevcntli will long lie ronicm- d by the Seniors and their friends. ( )n this occasion tlic gradu- ates met together fur the first time in one complete body, and thev began to realize that the beginning of the end had come. ' esper service in the evening of the same day was simple and impressive. ] Ion(lay was set apart for Athletics and Dramatics. At three o ' clock the base ball game between the Japanes e team of Waseda University antl Purdue was called. An immense crowd witnessed this unique game and Purdue spirit was greatly in evidence. Base- ball fans were impressed with the ability .shown by the little dark skinned ]ilaycrs frnni across the waters, and Japanese field talk furnislied no little annisenicnt for the spectators. In the evening EDIE 31 THB 1 Q12. DEBF I S IE HIEHB Hr. S. U. Clark showed great talent as a rcailer, ami his interpreta- tions of Chanticleer, Pheasant Hen, Black I ' .inl and other of our feathcred friends were extremely realistic. Tuesday was Reunion Day. After an enthusiastic alumni association meeting came the campus luncheon. The day was ideal, and gala week spirit was at its height. Everywhere long parted friends were renewing their old friendship, and one had the feeling that absence makes the heart grow fonder. The University Dand was there with Back to Old Purdue, and its usual stimulat- ing effect. The aeroplane exhibition of Tuesday afternoon was a splendid success. Thousands of people saw for the first time machines able to convey man through the air, circling about, and finally coming to earth again. At eight o ' clock the faculty recep- tion was given in the agriculture building for the Seniors and their friends. The Senior Hop in the gymnasium followed, and a large number of the dancers enjoyed a delightful evening. Wednesday morning at 9 :30 came the reward for the four years ' effort put forth by each member of the ' 11 class — namely, graduation exercise with the accompanying sheepskin. Every Senior appeared at his best as the class marched into Fowler Hall on this occasion. After the reading of the abstracts of theses by representative members of the class, an address was given by the Honorable Joseph Wingate Folk. Following this the degrees were conferred by President Stone. Thus it was. with a feeling of pri ' e. joy, and regret, that the class of l ' )ll went from Purdue University. So ended the thirty- seventh annual comnicnceinent. IC 1 1 Viwi IQ J j jjm I I r 31 Spencer — No, I ' ■. miE m THE 1 1 aiET] Class Parade October 7. 1911 was a gala day for the class of 1012. The occasion was the annual class parade on the day of the first foot- ball game of the season. Corduroys had been conspicuous by their absence since the beginning of the year, and this date gave the Seniors the exclusive right to the whistling cloth. The fourth year men thus came into possession of the insignia which tliey were to wear during their final college year. Preceding the Wabash game the Purdue P.ainl marched around Stuart field followed by the seniors, — distinguished by their cor- duroys, derbies an;l dignit} ' , — and the Juniors wearing their class hats of blue and white. For the first time in the history of the class parade the senior and junior co-eds joined in the procession. Upon this dav the Sophomores and Freshmen were impressed with the importance of the upper-classmen, and the significance of the cordurov. 12.

The greatest social event of our college career took place on April 21st, 1911, in the form of the Junior Prom. About ten o ' clock the orchestra filled the gloriously decorated ball-room with moft ins piring music, and everyone began dancing the liglit fan- tastic. Nor did they cease until dawn announced the approach of another day. The ' 12 Prom, was ]M-onounced by all as being the best ever, and seemed to be the final connecting link of our Junior and Senior years, which we had looked forward to for five long semesters. The decorations were unusually brilliant, the Japanese effect being carried out to a T. Lanterns were strung from every light ; ■ parasols were hung at regular intervals and yards of Old Gold and Black bunting beautified the track railing, so that the general effect was very tasteful. And the music encircled by a hedge of palms and ferns came out in volumes, the like of which had never before been heard in the ball-room. Beautiful gowns and spotlessly dressed men added to the splendor of the occasion, and marked a period we shall not soon forget.

Xight after night tliey came- out in tlie Imi., ' ..f ,Ii,umiil; the Suphomores out for a preHminary, but at first withuut success. Ilcjwever on the night of the 18th the 1914 men, feeling that they coulil not endure the bokhiess of the yearlings any longer, came quietly out, two hundred and fifty strong, to meet the badgering brigade. A hard battle ensued and it was only through good gen- eralship that the Sophomores, after a nineteen minute struggle, suc- ceeded ill tying up their ymiiiger upponcnts. This quited things con idcralily ami all efforts were put forth to prepare for the big fight. in tin- c c f the a]ipointed day the 9 5 men began, at 4:30 o ' clock, to collect lichind the Civil building. By si- o ' clock they were on their way and, when the long procession of four hundred and twenty-five Freshmen came marching down the street, the s])irit seemed at its highest. As soon as thev arrived on the battlefield they inovcl to the bottom of the hill and ' the lead- ers arranged the lin:d jilaiiv of ilie liattlc. The line was formed across the bottom o| the hill with end- lica il_ ' masked ami a thin center. The camp wa- apjiointcd ilirectly back of the line. At 7:30 o ' clock the Sophomores came upon the field with a rush and quickly lined, four (Ve]i. on the top of the hill. Eight minutes later a skyrocket si n;ded the charge and immediately the line swoo])ed lown upon the waiting Freshmen. The weak center of the yearlings gave way and, as a large number of Sophomores rushed through, the heavy ends of the line closed in, to the great disadvantage of the entrapped second year men. Immediately after the first rush came the Sophomore reserve, one hundred and fifty strong, which endeaxoiel to break through the ends of the Freshman line and establish their camp at its rear. They were, however, so weakened when they reached the Freshman camp, which was also situated at this point, that they were unable to accomplish their purpose and, in the confusion, one could see Freshman and .Sophomore side by side, both firmly believing that they were guarding their own camp. For the first five minutes the outcome seemed doubtful but as the struggle continued the outnumbered Sophomores began to give way. The persistent cry of Sophomore help. soon began to pre- dict the result of the fight. The untied 1914 men were, however not to be discouraged and their stubborn resistance prolonged the struggle to twenty-three minutes before the Freshmen could be truly declared the victors. By 8:40 o ' clock all the defeate:! men were securely tied to the chain and the procession started to march ofif the severely con- tested field. As they approached Stuart Field the huge pile of inflam- iiKilile nialerials collected there was set ablaze and in a few seconds the whole field wias brilliantly illumned. Encouraged by their lead- ers the vanquished yielded readily to the wishes of the victors and performed various stunts for tlie amusement of the spectators. When all was over and the crowd, which numbered over ten thousand, had turned homeward, all felt that they had witnessed a real college scrap, one that has no equal, and one that will long remain a fond recollection in the memories of the outgoing class. 68 11 3 iiiiiiiiiiii p 3J552]3| E3IC 31 Me big Macedone Man, ' ' raic 311 THB 1 OElBFL Ta 1 15= ::! =!

ADDRESS OF ATTORNEY SONNTAG TO THE JURORS Gentlemen of the Jury: Friends, Romans and fellow-students. Lend me your ears. I will try not to worry you to long, but there is about to be perpetrated cne of the most dastardly arraignments that this Univer- sity has ever known. (Aside: to Attorney Carothers: No, you damn fool, I mean the one by the Prosecutor.) You are gathered here to hear the clamor of the rabble at the bar of justice. They are so blamed used to clamoring at bars that they can ' t get over the habit. You know the merits and the demerits of the case as well as I. They want to bring degradation and sorrow upon the treasured classics of our boiler-making days — those noble concepts which are endeared to us — our fellow-compatriots, mechanics and hydraulics. They want to, well, nobody knows just what they want to do. They are just obsessed by a fantastical synaptical and neurotic idea that from their complaint something is going to happen. They are as irre- sponsible as Kid Glove Kate Thale when he ' s tampering with an East Side magnetic flux and trying to swap a little intrinsic energy for a enthropy factor. What have these two defendants done that is so offensive to the engineering body? Of course, it takes some brains to get away with a credit in the dope, and some of our most prominent students have been found in the wrong end of the balance. Look at E. Harrell and Si. Sebald! Yes. even I am a victim of the pixometer and venturi tube gags, and I ' m not complaining. Let them alone, and watch some other poor devil writhe and wriggle his way into the Science course. Lots of us have managed to bluff Doc. Coulter into believing that we have a little bit of cerebellum filling that will save us from becoming bar-tenders or red- light piano players. Why, gentlemen of the jury, the very fact that the path of a jet describes a hyperbola is of minor significance as a mitigant when it is considered that the department was relieved of our presence. Let me tell you, gentlemen, the defendants are entirely in sympathy with the student public. Does not Merriman say that a static load is a load at rest on a bar. Think of the static loads that wend their way over to the Murdock Flats shortly after midnight Sunday morning. Their deformation is natural. Doesn ' t a sudden load produce double the stress and double the deformation — and that Murdock crowd can scrape up a sudden load as fast as anybody in school, according to Faculty records. Why should not a homogeneous parallelopiped be subjected to tensile forces acting normally upon its six faces? Does a cylindrical roller roll, and why doesn ' t a long roller towel? Isn ' t W equal to 4-3 IdS (S-E) 1-2? And yet, who would have known it were it not for the defendants? Ask S. R. Miller what he thinks of losses of head. He ' ll agree that Tubby Lawrence is a frequent living example. Handsome Benny could get work from a moving van if he used the right process, and eliminated the trancendental conception from his parallelogismatic successivity. Consider the polar moment of inertia. It toils not, neither does it spin, but it plays hell with the shearing unit stress. Who hasn ' t made an investigation of joints since studying Merriman — riveted and otherwise — even Nifty Neff is now a master in the calculation of lap joints and side- wise compression. IC iw ■mil I p iiiiiiimiii rni c The Purdu tine thingr — after you have 31 miiK 31 THE i ia de:br.i s ic Slim Take a look at a Miner ' s inch. You ' d never imagine it liad such an important role in life, if Poorman hadn ' t worried about it. Of course the constant head may be easily maintained by placing the module in a chamber, and then minimizing the velocity of approach. Ask any of the Sunday night levee drillers — Fitzgerald. Hudson or Bud Brier. Any of them will tell you how to do it. It Tubby Lawrence puts up his Dukes, Doc. Hatt immediately Greaves, and Tommy Eyer, poor man, immediately toots, ' ' Ferry comes to the Fore and Ayers the whole matter? But why should the defendants be blamed for this. It Monkey Davis should Miss Purdue wouldn ' t he naturally think that she had Ransom? Certainly, just as though, if Miss Shoemaker would ask, What is Bursar Ellsworth, wouldn ' t Dean Skinner? There isn ' t a member of the jury who wouldn ' t gladly wear a Cippo- letti trapezoidal weir as a watch charm in preference to a Two Bit pledge I)in. The influence of dams in a class room is too well known, a posteriori, to demand your consideration here. Say it a few times with proper emphasis and prefixes, not forgetting the objective, and you ' ll find that G equals D plus 1 1-3 h — (q-Mb) 2-3 and a few other professional results. And now, gentlemen of the jury, before I close I wish to call your attention to the fact that neither of the defendants has had a damn word to say about clearing from the hydraulic standpoint, or the energy employed in scrubbing with Ivory soap. What a boon this is to Tubby Ruddell and others, who took their last real bathe in the early days of the first semester. We have arrived at that psychological moment when it is necessary for us to give up external work and employ a little intrinsic energy in the consideration of this case. The safety of University traditions in your hands must not be disregarded. You will be told a lot of rot by the Prose- c utor a little later on, and my colleague, Gary Garothers, who is the only living example of high-flyeritis, will offer a few aviation flights in oratory for your amusement. If he says anything that you unders tand, don ' t believe it. Wait until the prosecutor gets through telling all he doesn ' t know against the defendants, and then, if you can ' t render a verdict for us, don ' t render it against the defendants without just punishment of the Prosecutor as an accesory after the fact and worthy of the most drastic commendation. I thank you. ADDRESS OF ATTORNEY GAROTHERS TO THE .lURORS Gentlemen of the .lury: My colleague has promised you that 1 should attempt a few flights into the starry realms of oratory, but my wings are of the asbestos type and I will need them for future use. when I go to make suliihur matches in that abode for the scorching relics of a mis-spent life. It is too difflcut to essay an endeavor so empirical, despite its prior relations. The problem before you, gentlemen of the jury, is one that de- mands your soberly sympathetic consideration. Are you going to hand down a long line of your posterity an antipathy to the defendants? Remember, ,Iustice tempered with mercy is as soothing as a milk punch tempered with creme de menthe, and doesn ' t leave that dark brown, ex- crementary taste in your mouth on the morning after. We do not blame the students of former years for balking at Church! Lots of the faculty stay at home Sunday mornings. But here we have a Merriman thrust amongst us, but the merriment is so well hidden that the joke can ' t be appreciated by any of us. It is due to lack of brains, of course, and not the inadequacy of the defendants. We believe that if the Electricals would only consider the Vector diagrams as they are intended, no one would have to worry whether the elastic deflections of two beams of different lengths, but the same material, would interfere with the flexural stress on a pair of rods or thunder bolts. Ask Huebotter — that ' s the name that would sound well in one of Babson ' s lectures on German Immorality — ask Heubotter whether he favors the defendants! Watch him smile, and show his teeth. P. G. Thompson bluffs his way through easy enough, and Red Brum- fleld will swear by the Y. M. C. A. that there ' s nothing hard about the stuff. Neither of these gentlemen ever worked around a racing stable, and, besides, a pony wouldn ' t be as useful as a Sulphur match in Hades. Dan Haynes got his excellent voice swearing at Hydraulic formulae and calling for short beers at George Ghcinards. McNeal and Apple are valiant members of the midnight-oil crew, and with several other mem- bers of the Two Bits — a society organized for those who have never had to show up early for a fall flunk test — are progressive members of the Getting By Club. King Rawlins vouches for the vacuum that is alleged to have existed in Vivian Miller ' s cranium when he reached Purdue, and states that after many visits to the Knothole and Flunk Tests, Vivie has a sort of com- pulsory respect for the defendants. It ' s a toss up to see whether Vivie or A. R. Miller will flunk the oftenest. Incidentally, just to show there ' s nothing at all in a name, we might remark that there is no relationship between Vivie and A. R., except in the person of a KM across the river, who frequently discusses High Potential, and Low Frequency, with an occasional E. M. F., with them. Shannon, despite his appearance here as Prosecutor, never would have known how to appreciate a high-ball if someone over at the Mur- doch Flats hadn ' t outlined the effect of water on pipes. After careful and diligent study. Shannon now knows that: 24 hours Saturday night plus $5.00, equals Booze + SleeF+ Headache and arranges his finances accordingly. He ' d be in an awful fix if he had a bunch of revolving tubes, or a pair of arms attached to a vessel (preferably a schooner) with the vessel rotating about a vertical axis. Mosier has passed every flunk test supervised by the Monk since he entered school, including a lot of work about the projection of a roll- ing hyperboloid on a spherical plane, and an investigation of the ionic theory of the chemistry department. Of course, if we disregard the losses in foam and friction, we may have to ask Mike ' s opinion as to the distance between two windchief lines, or have Red Ruben and Burton start an argument regarding the hydraulic ram and its effect on sjuing mutton. The defendants will insist that the cultural knowledge is highly beneflcial it properly assimilated, and disseminated in a practical and coherent manner. In fact, there is no reason at all why a study of Paddle wheels, marcel Waves, Pumps and Defective Hose should not be included 71 II Ki ' i ' H nnjm P JIQQIQQj £;■ I Q 31 EOIC 31 THE l ia. DE:bF I S IE mm in the work of the Home Economics Department. N ' ot saying anythins about dams and penstocl;s. Why, it any harm should befall either of these defendants, we woull expect to see Old King Cole packing his fossilized theory of adiabatic expansions into a carpet bag, and swapping it for a pair of busted spark plugs and a caponized 10-year-old Plymouth Rock. And what would the printers do without the revenue from Toots Ferry ' s annual refined revisions, corrections, pamphlets, remodelings, text l)ocks and excerpts at $5 per year. No, the age of abolition of blood- sucking grafters is not yet upon us. and such a catastrophe would cause more excitement than if Tommy Eyer would believe one of Shorty Graefs demonstrations of the principle of least work. Gather up all of your inertia co-efficients, gentlemen. Calculate a tew kinetic energies. Combine your flexures and torsion and swallow a tew Lane and Claverino formulas. Hoop your guns and estimate your strength under fatigue. Then, gentlemen, armed with epithets as vile as the implied intent of a back-water curve, with a contraction co-efflcient and a conical convergence tangent to your pipe surfaces, fondly gather in the few fundamental ideas I have given you here. Weigh them against the howl of the kickers, and balance the equation with some of Toots Ferry ' s unexpurgated editions. Then, gentlemen, in the good name of the antagonists of college revelry, and as a step toward the elimination of Scanty Schultz ' s and the Lahr House Buffet, I ask you to acquit the defendants, and pave the way for hard study, the popularization of water for internal purposes and a mechanically material advancement for all those who now hate to work. You will not listen to the insane rambling of the prosecution, which won ' t do much good, for all this dam business was planned out beforehand. ADDRESS OF ATTORNEY HUGH SHANNON FOR THE PLAINTIFFS Gentlemen of the Jury: It is customary, in the prcsecution of a case, or the presentation of an unbelievable theory, to spread a little of what is popularly known as, — ahem! — salve. And so I will begin this address by complimenting the sheriff on finding such an excellent body of jurors, — twelve men, tried and true. (Aside: They might be found guilty, if tried, of anything, from studying for one of Davidson ' s Economic ' s tests to riding on a West Side street car. ) This is an occasion of the greatest moment. You don ' t need a formula to find this moment. It ' s right here with us, and we must make the best we can of it. A diabolical arrangement of verbosity and assininity, con- cocted by a double-barreled set of scabs called Maurer and Merriman, and labeled Mechanics, is charged with the gravest of crimes against modern humanity. Not alone, however, for another illegitimate child of the Merri- man stock, a watery individual called Hy Draulics, is charged as an accomplice before, during and after the fact. The fact is, gentlemen, that there doesn ' t seem to be a damn bit of reason for their existence, aside from the computation of a discharge, and an elliptical weir, and a few other universally condemned fanaticisms. There can be no mitigating circumstances in the case of the defendant Hy Draulics. Didn ' t it bring Buffalo Greaves to Purdue, and hasn ' t he scared the living, — as well as the dead, — ever since he ' s been here. 72 Even Slats Harding and Doc Hatt seem to lose their self respect when they are under the baleful influence of the two culprits, and are hypnotized into believing that Hydraulics and Mechanics should be a natural part of any college curriculum. Who. plus V, It ' s results we want. Not damn theories. Who cares whether the discharge for a small opening is. theoretically, Q equals AV equals A 2gh? This doesn ' t keep hot water In the gym shower room on Saturday nights. And this other vile assaulter of Univeisity traditions, — the dis- reputable procession of Mechanics. Was it not enough that the school should be burdened for years by old L P. C? What made Dukes wild- eyed? If it wasn ' t for Mechanics he ' d probably be as meek and tame as Cocky Ransom when he ' s raising a chemistry grade for a freshman co-ed. Rankine went crazy on the stuff, and when they took the iced towels oft his head, he called for beer and expatiated on the theme that S equals P over a plus P over a. cf over r2 equals . After he ' d finished the jag they found it was something about columns that wouldn ' t begin to hold Buggs Veal if he went on one of his customary toots. With beams fixed at both ends, and a reaction happening all along the line, gentlemen of the jury, it would be impossible for you to find out the strength of the stud without calling for outside help. The study itself presupposes an extraordinary degree of human intelligence, — and who would possibly reconcile such a condition in real college life? And, after all, gentlemen, — (say, will the Court wake up that hang- over in the back row?), — do the defendants really aid us in the solution of our every-day problems? Can we yet calculate the candle power of the Marstellar white-house? Who knows whether the Elastic Limit stressed the bars with its voluptuous cast until the fiow was checked by a spigot and a white-aproned bartender? All we know is that the energy was V. (P plus P2) (e — e2), — and then they rolled home in one of Jimmy ' s cabs. Now, gentlemen of the jury, can there be any punishment too severe for such delinquents as these defendants? Such generic degenerates should not be permitted to essay the roles of polite civilization any longer. They might be relegated to Dean Skinner ' s bunch of cow feeders or to Coulter ' s science bugs, — they couldn ' t be made any crazier than they are now. Bill Nye might put an efficient head on them and let them worry a troubled existence in a curved pipe, or they might be tied with some of Darwin Davis ' red-tape and used as targets for Krupp-shot cantilever beams under a longitudinal tension of 45,000,000 pounds. 1 am done, gentlemen of the jury. You have listened well and faith- fully. Ponder well the evidence of the effluvium that has been presented to you by the vileness of the defendants, the excrement of their formula- ridden carcasses, — and then, when you pronounce your severest sentence upon them, — to use the words of the Gospel, according to Buggs Veal, — Soak it to ' em, and give ' em hell.

SONNTAG Arthur liiimniingtoi), (luring the absence of his wife, is well taken care of by his mother-in-law, Mrs. Gillibrand. In order to escape her, he locks himself up in his room with a book which turns out to be The Arabian Knights. He is impressed with the actions of Haroun al Raschid and resolves to impersonate him in some of his philanthropic ideas. Accordingly, Huramingtop disguises himself and strolls into the park where he meets a young lady who has lost her way in the tog. In the character of the Arabian Knight he puts his handkerchief about her neck, which is uniirotected from the night air, and conducts her to her destination, forgetting the handkerchief. Unfortunately Mrs. Gillibrand has written Arthur ' s full name and address on this article and the next morning the girl, who is an acrobat wilh a circus, comes to return the handkerchief and have some fun at the expense of the owner. Arthur in a moment of excitement, intro- duces her to his mother-in-law as his niece whom they are expecting from New York. The designing Mrs. Gillibrand wants her son Joshua to marry the niece who is supposed to be very wealthy and thev become engaged before the truth is known. Then the real niece appears and with her a lover who happens to be Arthur ' s oldest friend, an artist in search of Scherazade. It happens also that he had followed Mrs. Hummingtop to get her picture. In the proper time all these characters are brought together in such a way as may be expected for the climax. The artist, Mr. Ormerod has once been en.uaged to the elastic acrobat, Arthur has been compelled to say Ormerod RICHEY was married to save himself, a nd all this adds to the general confusion. At last after several vain attempts to tell the truth, it comes out itself and the Hummingtop family is saved. Joshua weds the show girl on the quiet, Ormerod is acquitted and rewarded by the hand of Arthur ' s niece, and even the faithful servants join hands happily with the others. SCENE OF THE PLAY.

And to the class of 1912 belongs the honor of having been the first to give financial assurance and aid to the movement. At the beginning of our freshman year we were informed that our first duty as a class was to vote a five dollar asses.sment a man to the aid of the Memorial gymnasium which was under construc- tion at that time. This was done. During our junior year we were advised by the class of 1911 that a similar assessment levied upon its members, and hence our assessment, would not be required for the gymnasium, and then were solicited by this class to combine with them and provide a fund with this money for the erection of a gateway to Stuart Field. At a joint meeting of the two classes, the proposition was thoroughly discussed, and the two assessments pledged for this purpose. The following year, as .seniors, a number of the class felt that the money which had first been voted to the use of the Memorial gymnasium might be used for a purpose more fitting in a memorial way, and suggested the starting of a fund for a Students ' Union building. This suggestion was carried to the Student Council for consideration. The Council took the suggestion in hand by appointing a com- mittee to investigate by correspondence the Unions already existing at other universities. The result of this investigation led the Coun- cil to recommend that an effort be made to organize a Union here at Purilue, with the main idea of securing funds as soon as possible for an appropriate building. Acting upon these suggestions, the members of the class of l ' )12 met, discussed the proposition as a body, and voted the orig- inal five dollar assessment as a nucleus for a building fund. This was really the first material action taken for the founding of a Union, as it then offered a good excuse for organization. Within the week the other three classes met, and followed the lead of the Seniors, each voted a five-dollar assessment per man, payable before graduation, to go with the original donation made by the class of 1912 to start a Union building fund. Following these donations, the Student Council met and appointed a committee to draw up a constitution to present to the University body for adoption, that would proviile for a force of officials to direct and act as a nucleus around which to gather the support and aid of the movement. This constitution was ratified and adopted at a mass meeting of the students and faculty on April 17, 1912.

AccorJ- ing to the theory of evolution, we have developed from the greenest of Freshmen into the most dignified ct Seniors. During this period of transition many things have happened, certain ones of which form, as it were, nuclei for the history of the Class of 1912. For the majority of us the Freshman year involved many new and novel experiences, not least among which were the tank scrap defeat of 190S, and the green cap parade of March 17. 1909. Class spirit has always been conspicuous in our midst, and it was with proud hearts that we donned the headgear designed for the humilation of the first-year men. All activities of the campus, including class athletics, came in for their share of our attention, and June found us an older and a wiser class. It was during this year that the Memorial Gymnasium, in which we all take so much pride, was dedicated. This building has contributed advantages in our university life which were unfortunately denied our predecessors. The Sophomore year found most of us back again, ready to do or die for the maroon and white. The tank scrap victorj- of that year is fresh in the mind of every ' 12 man, each of whom fought so valiantly tor the honor of his class. The contribution of our class to the Harlequin Club helped make The City Chap the immense success that it was. Then, too. Varsity athletic teams saw the wisdom of including a number of sec- ond-year men in their squads, to the advantage of old Purdue. To our Junior year we look for reminiscences involving those pleas- ures unknown to the under-classmen. Such was the feeling of pride ex- perienced by every ' 12 man as he paraded around Stuart Field, wearing for the first time his hat of maroon and white. Such was the pride present in the heart of every Junior who attended that great social event of 1911. the Junior Prom. With a Junior as Varsity football captain, a Junior as Varsity basket- ball captain, and one ct our most able men as President of the Purdue Athletic Association, our class became a vital part of the athletic life of Purdue. Then came the Senior year, the first great event of which was our corduroy parade. This was the gala day to which we had looked forward as Freshmen, and to which we shall look back as alumni of Purdue Uni- versity. Then came the glorious football season of 1911, when the long- present hoodoo seemed to be lifted from us. Our victory over Indiana University at Bloomington, with halt the Purdue student body rooting on the side lines, marked a crisis in our college lite. The 1912 basketball season was one of overwhelming success, defeat being unknown. The two Seniors who helped make this record were the idols of every true basketball fan. One of our number has made a most efficient yell leader for the student body, and too much praise cannot be given him for his efforts to keep up the standard of Purdue rooting. Under an Editor-in-Chief from the ' 12 class the Exponent has main- tained its standing as one of the leading University papers. As a class w e have pulled together ' at all times, and much credit is thereby reflected upon our class officers and leaders. We have never been at a loss for capable men to serve in any capacity, and the names of Stockton, Nicol, Fletcher. Hays, Tavey, Cole and scores of others will always be prominent in the minds o ' f. their fellow classmates. Loyalty has been and shall al va, s be our standard. Historian. EDIE 31 THB 1 12.

Besides the P 5ilEVER on any occasion was the class of 1912 knonn to fall short of the standard set by any class, and in a great many cases has set them very much higher. This is proven very forcibly and conclusively when one stops and thinks what has been done by our class for the success and betterment of athletics. Our men have shown the very best of spirit from the start, every man having any ability going out for f he was not up to the average, he did not give up, but teams, the result being, as well as making a fine have an enviable record in class athletics r athletic sports, has been strongly sup- our P men have been point winners in men, we have a large number that have always been on the job and could be depended on as doing their best, although they never made enough points at any one time to get their letter. In Stockton, Tavey and Learning we have three men that have been a credit to us in every way. Basketball has been the sport in which we have starred. The 1!I12 ' varsity is known all over the country as the best team that ever jilayed the game. Besides having many men out for the ' varsity, we have always had good material for class teams. Three men, Stockton. Mc ' Vaugh and Miller, are in a class by themselves, and no other class or school has ever been able to produce three men their equal. The National game has not been slighted in the least by the ' 12 class. Four P men— Sebald, Summy, Miles and Marrow— are the ones that are foremost in our minds, and we are proud to say that their playing was the kind that we have confidence in, the kind that has pulled Purdue through many tight places. We look up to our four baseball men with a great deal of pride. Football, the greatest of all our games, was always enthusiastically supported by our class, and when you stop to think of the percentage of ' 12 men in that last and only successful game, you will at once realize where our men stood in football. On the first team this year we had five men, and on the second team we had three, besides having a strong class team. Including two ex- ' 12 men, v.e have eight football ■■? men, Fletcher, Tavey, Sebald, CoUen, Miles, Miller, Ball and Ogan, These men are the pride cf our class, for the ' 12 ' s respect no one more than their football men. We certainly have reason, if any class ever had, to be proud of these men and the showing they have made. Last and greatest, we have a rec- ord that can not be equaled by any class when it comes to leaders, having had a captain in every sport and two in each basketball and football. In track, Stockton has the honor of leading the Purdue team for the first time on the new track, and we have no tear but that he will be a credit to the class as well as to himself. In baseball, Summy, the man who plays the game no matter where you place him, is the captain of Nick ' s team this spring. In Nick and Summy we have no doubt but what Purdue will be heard from arounl the conference circuit. In basketball, Stockton was a very successful captain in his Junior year, and then passed it on to McVaugh in his Senior year, who, we all know, filled the position, and we hold them as the two greatest basketball men in the world. In football. Fletcher and Tavey were the two captains in the Junior and Senior years, respectively, who generated our teams in a way that made coaches of other universities look upon us with envy. This year the entire student body, with the consent of Indiana, presented Buck with a Pigskin diploma which represented the highest respect and con- gratulations of all.

E)E:BR I S IE aiEi] History of the Junior Class ITli the opening of the school year in September, 1909, a new class entered the University anl began its search for knowledge. A glance back- ward over the events which have taken place during the past three years arouses in one a feeling of admiration for the splenlid record that the 1913 class has made f(ir itself, and the hope that it may remain unmarred throughout tliL- rcniaiiidcr of oiu ' days at Purdue. Regardless of the fact that we lost both of our tank scraps, by inexperience and superior numbers, we were not discouraged, but went ahead with the feeling that these defeats should not pre- vent us from doing our duty by old Purdue, nor from having great interest in class affairs and a strong class organization, A review of the athletic records of the University for the past three ) ' ears cannot fail to impress one with the pr which the class of 1913 has gained in this branch of school activi- ties. In all forms of athletics found here at Purdue we have been ably and honorably represented. Our class teams have gained us many honors and a goodly number of our representatives have worthily filled places on the ' arsity teams. While we take great prir ' e in the laurels won liv our class teams, yet we attach greater significance to the fact that we have materially aided in furnish- ing ' arsity men. Xor has the Junior class been less active in social affairs. We take great pride in saying that our Junior Prom, the fourth ever given in the Memorial Ciymnasium, was one of the most successful and enjoyable promenades ever given at Purdue, And now we finish the year with a promising future ahead of us and sincere purpose, urged on by high ideals fixed in our hearts.

A year has passed since our Freshman history was chronicled and (!nring it many important events have occurred. Naturally the first important event of the year was the tank scrap. Lured on by our great vic- tory of last year we felt very confident, especially after winning one of the fiercest preliminary fights that has ever occurred here at Purdue. But, alas, numbers prevailed against experience in the big event. We were defeated and, although it went sadly against the grain, we were compelled to give tlie Freshman veil. We ne.xt centered our attention on athletics, in which lirancli of school activities we have made a very creJitable showing. Rep- resentatives of the 1914 class hav e found places on all the Varsity teams and filled them creditably. This fact cripple! us somewhat in regard to our showing in class athletics, but, while we did not do so well on the football field, we have won second place in both the basketball and track interclass series. Thus far our class has been fairly successful and our hopes are briglit lor the future.

DBBR.I S IE HIEO History of the Freshman Class HE class of 1915 entered Purdue as the largest ever enrolled here and as strong in spirit as in numbers. Not only did the Purdue Spirit claim us at once, but our class spirit needed no awakening, for not even a day had passed before our numerals appeared on the tank. And they were destined to remain, for although the Sophomores proved themselves to be dangerous foes, we fought a good fight and came out victorious. We immediately entered into the activities of the University and in a short time made ourselves known in social and literary circles as well as in the classrooms, where we soon evidenced our ability as students. At the opening of the football season athletics claimed our attention and the team which represented the Freshman class not only won the interclass championship, but also defeated the All Star team. Nor did we fall behind in basketball, for here our team carried oflf championship honors. Our track work has been of the best quality and we succee ' ed in winning the inter- class meet. Realizing that after all we were just Freshmen, we wore the customary green caps with due humility, and, having demonstrated our ability to sucli satisfaction to ourselves, we regretted leaving off these class emblems during the winter months and so obtained permission to wear green toques instead. Thus far 1915 has been first in war and first in peace, but it is our greatest hope that we may always give our best for the Universit ' , for first in our hearts is old Purdue. iim uiMiP 31 E13IC=Zai THE 1 12.

DBBR I IE mm History of Junior Pharmics arrived on Wednesday, September 13tli. 1911, and entered in a very dignified manner into Pro- fessor Stummer ' s lecture room. Here we sat around and looked wise, this being our first Ik Un- as Purdue students. We later learned that when we did not know a thing the best way to do is to repeat our first liour ' s performance of looking wise. The tiling that injured our vain feelings most was the fact that nobody seemed to know us — who we were or where we be- longed. We soon framed a way out of that difSculty. liowever, by selecting a label for ourselves in the shape of a royal purple sky piece. While this ornament was beautiful and undoubtedly attractive, the Student Council did not look at it with a favorable eye, and we were told to take it off. Long since those early days of rash thoughts and deeds we decided that green was a much more appropriate color, so by per- mission of the Student Council we selected our Freshman cap of green, and as a department color we chose brown, in remembrance of those dark brown tastes left after eating some of Pap Green ' s samples. L ' pon donning the green cap we were invited to the egg social on St. Patrick ' s Day. This invitation was accepted with more haste than wisdom, and great was our disgust the next morning. At the beginning uf the term our class numberetl twenty- three, but this ' diocdco number soon got the better of us until now we are struggling along with but seventeen, some quitting on account of sickness, while others went the lucrative position mute to oblivion. ddie remaining tew have succeeded in getting by Dr. Terry without knowing much, have mastered the fa mous Caspari, in his Treatise on Pharmacy, with the result that Professor Sturmer, instead of lecturing on Practical Pharmacy, asks us our opinion of it — the same opinion to be written in examination form each Hind ' s is no longer the bug-a-boo of ft rnier days and to see us spill acid oil on our hands and clothes one would naturally infer that we have been in the business some time. As a fitting close to our year ' s work we have induced Professor Enders and his understudy. Ceorge Hoffman, to believe that we are peerless in determining the method of the reproduction in several species of plants and animals. Our favorite hang-out is Dcac ' s or Pap Green ' s, but the best inducement that Pap ofifers is a licorice root or occasionally some Potassium Chlorate tablets, so it is only because of stormy weather cr one of those recognition tests that we seek his hospita lity.

DBBF I S IC HIES The Battle of Tippecanoe On the 7th of Xoveniber, 1911, the 100th anniversary of this battle was commemorated by the citizens of Tippecanoe County and the State of Indiana. Two State Governors and several other men and women of national prominence were present and delivered addresses at the various meetings. The most picturesque feature of the celebration, however, was the sham battle between the Red Men and the Purdue Cadet Corps. This battle was conducted along the same lines which characterized the original contest and was an instructive and impressive spectacle to the 30,000 people who witnessed it. It was a da ■ long to be remembered. On the 7th of Xoveml)er, in the year 1811, General William Henry Harrison crushed the power and the ambitiims nf tlie Indians in the Northwest by defeating them in the now fanmus battle of Tippecanoe. He had a force of about 910 men, wliile tlie Indians un ' er the misguided Prophet had about the same num- ber. The real leader of the Red Men, the great Tecumseh, hmk nu part in the battle. He was absent on an expedition for tlie purpose of perfecting his confederacy against the whites. General Harrison marched from ' incennes to this locality, and the battle took place on a high ledge of ground near the present site of tlie village .if I ' .attle Ground. The area is n..w enclnsed and is well trees. DIEZZ3 BnnilP .1. C. Vannattn— Now. EDIC . 12. e e:br i s ICC iim Shorthorn Class Organization Class Colors — Yale Blue and White. R. K.

E)BBR,I S IE im The Senior Girls of 1912 EXTY-SE ' EX which we began a s the fateful number with r career at Purdue University in the fall of 1508. Now as the time approaches when we are to walk up the aisle in Fowler Hall and grasp our sheepskins, we grow remin- iscent and think of the year we started out. It was a beautiful sunshiny September morning that first entered the portals of our beloved University. With a feeling almost akin to fear we stole up the steps of Fowler Hall and modestly took our places in the balcony, which, it had been rumored about, was the one place for Freshmen. What a bewilder- ing array of masculinity met our astonished gaze ! Were it not for the business-like little assignment card stowed away in our new- leather handbags, we would have felt that to flee was the one and only course to pursue. However, when the President arose to give his welcoming speech and included the girls as well as the boys, we picked up new courage and decided that we were as much a part of it as they. It did not take us long to fall into the regular routine of I ' niversity life. Before the first week was over we were plunged into the intricacies of Math, and the dreary monotony of Chemistry Lab. It did not take us long to discover there was an English theme due every Monday morning at 8 o ' clock and that biology was a place to find specimens — not to indulge in unnecessary con- versation. Many were the things we learned that eventful first year. The opening of Sophomore year found us with our ranks sadly depleted. It was in a half-hearted manner that we started out. so greatly did we miss our former classmates who had drnpiieil out for various reasons. Realizing, however, that this was a decidedly unphilosophical attitude, we endeavored to brace up and before long reorganize! ourselves. As much of the novelty of being in college had worn off and this year did not seem as full as the first year had been. We were the typical blase sophomores who have never before nor never will attain such a higli degree of self-satisfaction. As Juniors our chief thing to be remembered is the class in Human Body, where we were frightened into submission on the first day, remaining in this state until we discovered that our genial instructor ' s bark was a great deal worse than his bite. Senior year, with its mixture of sadness and gladness, has come and gone with amazing rapidity. Here we are almost at the finish and it seems but yesterday that we made our initial entry. In thinking over our former fellow-classmates, a feeling of sadness comes over us when we think that two of our most beloved girls, Gertrude Cole and Ruth Xolin. have been taken from us by death. It seems as if it is impossible for time to lessen this keen feeling of regret. Reports as to the whereabouts of the remaining former mem- bers of the class show that some have cast their lot with other institutions of learning, tliat a few are teacliing an 1 that four have been invited into the state where love, honor anrl obey is the password. What fate has in store for the rest of us remains as yet a mystery, but here is a wish for the girls of 1912 — that their future may be as happy as the four years they spent at dear old Purdue. 3l j iiiiiHiiiii T) ffTffwwn E3IC miE 31 THE 101P T T ?= R.I3 IE The Co-Eds HIEn |T has been the good luck (at least from a fe standpoint ) of the class of 1912 to see a wonderful increase in the number of girls enrolled in the University. Four years ago there were fifty girls in Purdue — a meager fifty, too, specials carrying perhaps only one subject being counted. Today there are one hundred and thirty women students in the University, the greater majority of whom are carrying regular work. Purdue, as in other schools, sets a high standard in tlie de- partment for women. They follow the course in science just the same as it is prescribed for the men students excepting that Home Economics may be substituted for a course in science. It is through this course in scientific home management that Purdue has won the reputation which makes it bid fair to become one of the largest co-educational institutions in the State. To Mrs. Calvin, who has built up and made strong this department, the credit is due, an 1 too much cannot be sairl in praise- of the efficient nrk she has done while connected with the University. As far as official cus- toms are concerned, there are very few among the Purdue girls, Thoui li they wear class insignia, they cannot participate in tank scraps and Me- chanics Burnings, and, as a consequence, are forced to devise many improni])- tu affairs, wdiich are nii -- el and interesting. Chief among these are the im- pressive ceremonies held by the inhabitants of Ladies ' Hall to celebrate the death of the old semester. Each year new features are add- ed until the rites are noth- ing short of spectacular. Over in the basement where the stray girls are wont to ■ I eat their lunches, an effort is made at the first of the year ti subdue the Freshmen. Many times hand-to-hand combats are necessary, wdiich end in a disastrous scattering of hairpins and a hurried call from the library or registrar ' s office to modify the noise. The Ancient Order of the Basement Sisters is a time- honored organization, and it is with a feeling of regret that we think our old stamping ground is soon to be a thing of the past, when the new library is completed. Flowever, we hope that un- der the tutelage of Miss Miller the same spirit will be around in the new quarters that has animated our dilapidated haunt in for- mer times. The Senior luncheon, which takes place usually some time in May, is the one affair of the year. It is a delightful gathering of all the girls of the University in honor of the Seniors. With toasts given by a representative of each class and members of the faculty, it is very interesting and an event that is always remem- bered in after years. The greatest influence among the girls is Mrs. McRae. She captures tlie hearts of the Freshmen the first day they enter in her class and each ensu- ing day serves to only in- crease the admiration and respect which every Pur- due girl feels for Mother. Through her many char- acters have been unfold- ed, and on more than one occasion latent talent has been brought to light that otherwise might never have been discovered. Her high ethical ideals have been a source of in- spiration to all her pupils, and it would be an impos- sibility to try to measure the account of good spread broadcast by our beloved teacher. imii 31 tMueuLLR- miE ai THE 1 12. e)e:bf i s IE iin3 Some of the Tau Baits are O.

DEBR.I3 IE aim Athletics at Purdue S the years roll on, and the already high standards of our colleges are mounting higher and higher, educators are c iniing tn recognize the value of a good, sound, healthy body and its relation to the mind. The knowledge of this is not new, as the old Greek philosophers maintained that the body and the mind should have a joint training, because in a healthy body lives a clean, healthy brain, a brain which is capable of thinking clearly and quickly, and a body which responds instantly. This is efficiency, either is the recognition of this knowledge by our educators of recent date. For the last quarter of a century athletic work in some form or another has been included in every well organized educational system. Cales- thenics prevail in all places because a large number of students can take part in a very smal l space. Athletics, as we use the word, means some form of game, as football or baseball. The student bodies in general are more enthusiastic over this latter form of exercise because the competitive spirit is brought forth, which is primitive. Of course it is recognized that a greater benefit is derived from an hour on the athletic field than from an hour ' s drill in calesthenics. And so wc have had the major brandies ni athletics in which e -erv imc took an intere t, liut wliicli, for lack of space, could be participate 1 in ])y but a few. Wherever the competitive spirit is prevalent it is only natural to specialize along the several lines and the few wdio participate are neces- sarily the best trained and best developed men in the school. And so the highest purpose of the educators, from the educational standpoint, is thwarted. Those who do not nee 1 the exercise get all of it; those who need it most get none. Here at Purdue the object is to provide as much as possible for the needs of the entire student body, and Purdue is foremost again. Every class has a diamond and a gridiron, so that they may practice without interference, and a schedule of practice hours is made out for basketball practice in the Gymnasium. In foot- ball, baseball and basketball each class plays two games with each of the other three, and in track an interclass meet is held to decide the championship. Silver loving cups are presented to the cham- pions and these are placed on exhibition in the Trophy Room. The tennis courts are always occupied when the weather is good. In the spring and fall, Stuart Field, which is one-eighth of a mile wide and one-quarter of a mile long, is alive with athletes and near-athletes, all in excellent physical condition. Besides fostering the general health of the community, this class system often brings forth men of exceptional ability who make valuable additions to the various A ' arsity teams. II V i Q]QQ2 J l m J If .) I 31 QIC 31 THE I QIZ I EBR I3 IE aim Purdue ' s athletics are on a par with those of any school in the Conference. Many people, when speaking of football, in which we are rather weak, use the term Athletics, thoughtlessly of course, but tending to convey the wrong impression. From the time football started in the Western schools until the wreck oc- curred, Purdue was very strong in football and won the cham- pionship several times. Since that time we have suffered a long- drawn-out slump, and our record has been poor. However, the prospects are now brighter than they have been for several years, and from now on Purdue will be heard from in football as well as in the other sports. The track team has stood high for several years and has ranked among the leaders at all times. In basket- ball and baseball the last few years have seen Purdue in either first or seconrl place in both branches. The other schools may hold widely different places in the percentage columns from year to year, but Purdue is always one-two. And so a slight glance over the records of our teams shows athletics in general as being in excellent condition, and with the standard of our football team raised a little higher one could well say that Purdue was the strongest athletic school in the Middle West. Of course all Purt ' ue men are more than anxious to have winning teams, but the commendable thing about the institution is that known as the Purdue Spirit, which may be partially defined b ' our unwritten slogans : Win, but win honorably ; Cheer in victory, and cheer in defeat ; Honor our athletes and they, knowing our spirit, will strive their best for us ; and many others, all peculiar to our institution, and all helping to make up, in part, tliat indefinalile something called the Purdue Spirit.

Furthermore, it is famous, as many of the largest Universities in the country, recognizing the superiority of the system, have triel it. some failing in the attempt by poor management, while many have suc- ' ceeded. One of the chief causes for the success is the operation of the coupon system. Every student and every member of the in- structional corps is given an opportunity to purchase a coupon book at the beginning of the school year. The price he pa ' s for the book is five dollars, and he then becomes an active member, voting as a member of the association, and is equipped with a ticket for every game played in Lafayette un- ' cr the ausjiices of the Athletic Association. The business men of the city also have the privilege of be- coming members of the Association, on a slightly different basis. They pay seven and one-half dollars per book and are honorary members, without the privilege of voting. However, the book entitles them to a reserved seat at all games and is transferable. In addition they receive a window card for display purposes so that students may know who are the loyal supporters of the Association. All members of the Association, both active and honorary, are presented with lajicl l)Uttons of a neat design, so that members may be distinguishalilc at all times. The reason for the ])heni_ menal success of this system is readily apparent. By this method the membership has been in- creased from 250 members to 1.500 members in six years. A large percentage of the active members are present at every general meeting of the .Association, thus instilling a general enthusiasm an! interest in the affairs of the organization. The officers of the Board are elected at the Fall meeting anl the strong competition brought forth by the intense interest of so many stur ' ents insures competent men. Furthermore. 1,500 men ha c in their possession tickets to all of the games, already paid for. Xat .rally they will all attend, tilling the stands, which is a great encouragement to the players. Again, as 1.500 books are paid for in the first week of school, tlie management has a financial foundation upon which to base ex- penilitures. When this system was started, six years ago. the annual report of the Treasurer showed a balance of approximately $1,500. The last report showed a balance of $11,000 over and above the amount used in making the improvements on Stuart Field, which are mentioned in the article on Stuart Field, and $5,000 which was the gift of the Association to the Memorial Gymnasium. It can be seen from this that the Bur ' uc . thletic Association is on a sound financial basis and is flourishing. The business of the Association is conducted by tlie llnard df Directors, which is. with the exception of three members, c. imposed of men elected bv the active nienilicrvhiii nf the . s-,,,ciatinn.

A ' Varsity Insignia Board, composed of five men, submits the names of the athletes who in their judgment have fulfilled the requirements for award to the letter P. The Association in a general meeting passes upon the submitted list and grants the let- ter. In most cases the report of the Insignia Board is accepted in full. In one instance, however, when the Board recommended that nineteen men (football) be awarded the P when not a single game was won during the season, the members voted it down and did not give any letters. In this case four members of the Board signed the report recommending that letters be given, and the fifth member. Professor M. J.

' miB ai THE 1 13 ie: aiEo ). j| The unquestionable rise of Purdue flMJI S . University in Western atliletic circles tor fl Bk tlie past six years can be easily traced to (i j t the master hand at the helm, who has H M BL guided the Old Gold and Black craft B B safely out of a sea of mediocrity into the Hq B ocean Hugh Nicol, better t f known perhaps as Nic, has held the V with unerring judgment, and through mountains of obstacles the flag of the Boilermakers has come unscathed. It has not been a decade since Pur- due began steadily but surely to demand the attention of these interested in athletics in the Middle West. Time was, many years ago, when Purdue ' s football teams demanded recognition for the college. Several track men of unusual ability also garnered hon- ors for their Alma Mater, but the efforts were spasmodic, and the laurels often shriveled and dried before another installment replaced them. But better things were in store for Purdue. To go back a few years, a history of the baseball world tells us that from 1881 to 190fi a certain individual by the popular name of ' Little Nic was creating history for himself by his daring work on the diamond. Easily the pigmy among hundreds of players, the little man continued for a dozen seasons to occupy the foreground in baseball circles. From a boy- hood devoted to baseball, and an association with such famous players as Charles Comiskey, Pop Anson and others, coupled with natural aggres- siveness, cool judgment and real ability, Nic stepped into professional baseball circles for the first time in 1881. From the advent of Nic into the baseball world with the Chicago Na- tionals in 1881 and 1882, there was no doubt but that he was destined to a brilliant future. In 1883, 1884, 1885, 1880 and 1887 he played with the St. Louis Browns, at the time that Comiskey was captaining the aggrega- tion. In 1885 and 188G the Browns won the vcrld ' s championship against all comers, and Nic played in every game of the world ' s series. In 1888 he was sold to Cincinnati, and until 1S92 played in the field for the Cincinnati National League team. But the managing bee com- menced to buzz in his bonnet, and he bought out the Rockford, Illinois, team of the Three I League. Until 1897 he continued to manage, with wonderful success, various teams in this section of the country. In 1897 he was chosen manager of the St. Louis Browns. Loving the game itself too well, the following season he went back to the Rockford team, and managed and played with that team, putting it in the Western League. He only played for a short while, however, when he was ready to re- Hugh Nicol tire from professional baseball circles, and while closing up an eventful season for the Peoria team, Manager Rusterholz, of the Purdue Athletic Association, decided that his school needed just such a man as Nicol, and negotiations were begun. Satisfactory arrangements were soon completed, and in the spring of 1906 Nic came to Purdue. A new era was opening in Purdue athletics. With the experience of years in the major leagues, and unusual fore- sight, he saw the possibilities that presented themselves to the Purdue Association. Serving his first season here only as coach of the baseball team, the order and system that he created from a chaotic condition de- manded attention, and at the close of the season he was boosted to the Athletic Directorship. The plans that he had been formulating were now put to an actual test, and there has been no fallacy as yet to mar his man- agerial history. From one baseball diamond and gridiron, located at that time behind the Engineering buildings, six baseball diamonds and gridirons began to appear. Stuart Field was dedicated, and there grew up one of the most perfect systems of class athletics in the country. Large colleges today, both in the East and West, are boldly copying Purdue ' s, or rather Nic ' s, plan of Interclass Athletic Contests. By far the greatest achievement of the little man was the establish- ment of the coupon system in vogue today. The athletic treasury had not been bothered with a superfluity of money when the curtain was rung down on the athletic season. Nic stepped into the breach — the coupon system was established, flourished and prospered until today, Purdue has the most perfect system of financial control of any of the colleges in the United States. Stuart Field has been enlarged several times, new bleachers have been added, a cinder running track was laid, and today, Purdue can boast of the fastest quarter mile oval running track in the West. Athletics have been thoroughly systematized, competent men are in control of every branch, the Memorial Gymnasium affords exercise of every kind for thousands of students each year. Swimming classes for Freshmen were made compulsory. Purdue ' s athletic teams have been steadily climbing to the top. in baseball, basketball, football and track. And Nic has been the man behind the gun. As a crowning event, this year Purdue will be the host to hundreds of athletes from the State and from the Western Conference. For the first time in history an Interscholastic Baseball tournament, bringing into competition more than a thousand high school boys, will be attempted. The annual track and field meet of the Western Conference will also be held on Stuart Field, preceded by the Ninth Annual State High School Track and Field Meet. Much credit and honor is certainly due Hugh Nicol. iC of 4, ' ood looki 193 31 [1I]IC ai THE 1 12. E)BBR.I S IE mm Ralph E. Jc 0 Ralph E. Jones.

He started down at the bottom by coaching BBH high school and Y. M. C. A. teams, from which he advanced to athletic director and coach of the Wabash College, where he took charge of basketball. baseball, track, and football. However, he was especially successful in the line of basketball, as his team carried away All-State honors four years, and twice won the World Championship by defeating Yale anl Columbia. The next and best step Jones took was to come to Purdue in 1909. as Assistant Athletic Director, with direct charge of basketball and track. Since Jones has been with us he has proved to be a willing and suc- cessful assistant in football also. As he is here the entire year he is of great aid to the head coach in that he is acquainted with the men and can study their ability before the regular season opens. He is also very quick and apt in explaining and in actually showing the men how the plays are to be executed. In track Jones has had rather hard luck on account of an insufficient amount of material to work with. But even in this line he has made the best of it, always making a creditable show- ing. And now track is beginning to look much brighter, and with the aid of a few more good trackmen and students, we will soon be at the top. When it comes to basketball Jones is in a class by himself. He simply knows and understands completely every point and plan of the ,:;ame. and has a secret process of instilling it into his team. The rec- ords speak for themselves and there is no question but what Jones heads the list when it comes to ability in coaching basketball. Jones has made for himself a place in the heart of every true student and athlete of Purdue University. Besides being a coach Jones always wears a smile and has a disposition that has made for him many friends and admirers.

Horr During the winter of 1900- 1910, when the football situation loolvetl so clarli, a sigh of relief was heard to escape from the loyal rooters when it was an- nounced we were to have the services of Coach Horr for the next two years. Little was known about him when he first came here as coach, but the in- stnnt he arrived in town, we M ii. well aware of his presence, mill he immediately proceeded Id wade into the hearty good will of everybody connected with the University. With Big Hill in a football suit and mix- ing it up, with his men, we all II II that a change for the better liail taken place. As that first season pro- gressed, the great showing our team made against such big odds, gave us more confidence in our big friend, and the fact that we lost those games seemed to make him grit his teeth and work all the harder. His work with the squad the next Spring impressed all that we could expect better results, the following Fall. In spite of the fact that we had such a wealth of veterans left for this year ' s team, the luck seemed to go against us as each successive game slipped into the played colunm. Later, however, Horr showed his ability as a football mentor when he changed his lineup entirely, gave Rose Poly the worst trouncing of the year, and sent a team against rom the previous yi so fortunate as to Indiana, which contained only on men, with the results so many of November 25th last. No rooter, who was at Blcomington en that great day will ever forget the huge smile of triumph upon ' Big Bill ' s face as he paced up and down the side lines, splashing mud at every step, unmindful of everything but his team and Indiana ' s. Nor has Purdue ever had a foot- ball coach who was more thought of by the men on the squad. He pos- sesses their respect as a coach, as a man who is willing to get into it with them, show them their defects and remedies for the same, and as a friend to them all: feeling just as happy as any one of them when nd getting down and working all the harder after ith us victory v a defeat. Notwithstanding the fact that Horr weighed 24.5 pounds, his athletic record while in college was an enviable one. He ran the hundred yards in 10 2-5 seconds, and was one of the quickest linemen of the Syracuse squad. In his first year at Syracuse University, Horr was picked by many prominent writers for Ail-American tackle. Three years in succession he was selected by Walter Camp for either first or second substitute eleven, and in the year of his graduation he attained the ambition of every football man, as he was selected by Camp for Ail-American tackle. Not content with football honors alone, his ability with the weights was such that he accompanied the American Olympic team to Athens in 190C and to London in 190S, where he was among the best of the partici- pating athletes. At Athens he broke the world ' s record in the discus throw. There is no question that, in Horr, Purdue has one of the best coaches in the West. He came here from Northwestern, a man capable of step- ping into the breach at the critical moment and stemming a strong tide successfully, covering with glory the Purdue team and himself in win- ning the game that every Purdue student cared most of all to win. By his physical prowess and his hearty good nature Horr has won a warm place in the hearts of all Purdue men. and we shall impatiently await the returns of the Purdue games next fall, because we are confident Big Bill ' s men v ill return with the long end of the score of each and every one of them. j { j J jj j Ei3l I raiB m THB 1 12.

Let what will happen ine that standing, and Purdue stands n the late controversy over summer .ad in a campaign against it. The lis can be found in the Aleniorial wli. - this is so, it will be neces- ;ffeot of the disaster which made tands for, possible. In the Fall of 1 ' I03 Purdue had a team which to all indica- tions could beat their old rivals, Indiana. The morning of Oc- tober 31st was bright and clear, an ideal day for a football game. The students and townspeople were enthusiastic over the pros- pects and a large, happy crowd left on two special sections over the Piig Four to Indianapolis, where the game was to be played. The team was in the first section, the place of honor as it was supposed, in the first coach at the head of the train — a place and an honor which will never be forgotten by the students of Purdue L ' niversity in all time to come. Every one was happy. Songs were being sung and yells were being given throughout the entire train as it approached the station, and preparations for alighting were being made. Running about forty miles an hour as the train nearcd Eighteenth street, the engineer, obtaining a clear view of a portion of the track which but a moment before had been hid- den by a cut of coal cars on a siding, and a neighboring shed, saw but a few hundred feet away a coal train being pushed up the main track towards him. The engine was reversed and the emergency brakes applied, but a fraction of a second later there came the crash, accompanied by the tearing of timbers, the breaking of glass, the hissing of steam and the cries of the wounded. It was over in a twinkling of an eye. but the results of that terrible moment of destruction will remain a lifetime in the mcnnir - of those who saw it.

E)BBR-.I S IE aiEi3 The first coach had borne the brunt of the shock, and its passengers furn ished the victims of the most frightful disaster that has ever befallen an American University. As the train came to a stop those in the rear coaches rushed from their cars to see the result of the catastrophe. The dead and dying- lay at all hands, and the picture of fellow classmates and friends lying with limbs and arms severed and heads crushed beyond recognition was frightful. Acts of true heroism were prevalent on every hand. On the platform of the Union Station a large delegation of Indiana students were assembled, and as the time for the arrival of the special drew near they gathered together to greet their rivals with the Indiana yell. But the cry was fairly under way when the word of the disaster became known. Suddenly a ( ' eathly quiet prevailed — a gloom pervaded the very air that ])ut a few minutes before had rung with the defiance of Indiana and Purdue supporters. Over the Crimson and Cream the fol- ic jwers of the sister school, in menmry of the disaster, draped the mourning hue of black. Within a week after the disaster a fitting memorial in the form of a Gymnasium was suggested, and plans for furthering the project were made by students, faculty and alumni, together with many loyal supporters. Through the Lafayette Morning Journal subscriptions were made from the townspeople and the liig Four Railroad gave a large amount, which, together with a multitude of smaller donations, made the building possible. The Memijrial Gvmnasiuni as it nuw stands is a memorial fitting to the brave fellows who gave their lives for Purdue. The use of the Gymnasium makes possible better teams of every kind. In every respect the attitude of the Athletic management has been conductive to further popularity. Open to all, the attitude has been for the development and improvement of all rather than perfection in a few. The main floor is 160x80 feet and is laid out for three bas- ketball courts, with nets for indoor baseball practice, four rub- ber running lanes, allowing a forty-yard straightawav, etc. It is equipped with all the latest gymnasium apparatus and para- phernalia. A Xarragansett running track, ten feet wide, four- teen laps to the mile, covered with 550 yards of cork linoleum, is suspended over the main floor. The swimming pool, 60x30 feet, four feet in depth at one end and eight feet at the other, is lined with white tile and is yours while here. Thirty-five shower baths adjoin. The locker rooms contain 1.800 steel lockers, and adjoin the training quar- ters, equipped with every modern convenience for the welfare of our athletes. . trainer and a corps of assistants are always on hand. ' ith the memory of the disaster which made possible a larger and better Purdue, with competent inanagement by clean- minded men, the Memorial Gymnasium has proven the stepping- stone to something better, a superiority on the field, the track, the gridiron, in the gymnasium, all under the regin-ie of clean athletics. All this inspired by your honor, F.rave Sons of Purdue.

Few of us realize that but several years ago our athletic field was little more than a piece of farm land, with a portion of it fenced in with a high board fence. In the Spring of 1906 the Varsity baseball diamond was staked out en the site now occupied by the Practical Mechanics Building. Just before the season opened the diamond was changed to what is now known as the Senior Diamond, just north of the Oval. This was made necessary by the fact that the gridiron was being filled with 2,700 yards of dirt. As the financial condition of the Athletic Association grew and flourished, many additions were made to the field. The four sections of stationary bleachers adjoining the covered granil stand were erected in order to accomodate the increasing attend- ance at the football games. . s Ijaseball came rapidly to the front in Conference circles, interest was stimulated and the little unpainted bleachers were found inadequate for seating the rooters. The large movable bleachers were erected, one section after another, until we now have twen ' sections, which are arranged around the gridiron in the Fall and parallel to the first and third base lines during the baseball season. In the Fall of 1907 the system of class athletics was in- augurated and has proven extremely successful. Four gridirons and four diatronds were laid out to the east of Stuart Field and back of the buildings. ' hen the Practical Mechanics I ' .uilding was built on the Freshman dianvm 1 it became necessary to make some arrangements for the class lields. I ' rcsi ' ent Stone gave the plot of ground lying north of Stuart Field to be used for class diamonds and gridirons. This addition just doubled the area of Stuart Field, making it one of the largest athletic play grounds in the A ' est. As there was no likelihood of any buildings being erected on this ground, plans for making per- manent the class fields were laid. Today there are six first-class baseball diamonds and five gridirons, and six tennis courts, with room for as many more. When the Conference Track and Field Meet was schedule 1 for Purdue, for the first time in the historv of the Conference, it was under the stipulation that a new track be built which should pass the inspection of a committee representing the Con- ference lioard. In the Fall of 1911 plans were drawn up for changing the shape of the track, and workmen were detailed U dig cut the new curve and the old straii.;htaway to a depth (if eighteen inches. , . concrete curbing was laid up on biith the outside and the inside of the track and then began the process of filling. This consisted of laying a foundation layer of the heaviest cinders, then followed other layers, each containing a smaller- sized grated cinder. The upper or wearing surface is composed of the finest cinders obtainable, sifted through screens until the selected product resembled coarse sand in size, When com- Iileted it was pronounced the finest quarter mile cinder track in the ' est. Taken all in all, Stuart Field is a playground of which we may well boast, and it gives one a mighty pleasant feeling to stand on the steps of the Gymnasiuin overlooking the field and sec sccTes of students availing tlienisehes nf the iiiporUinity tip better their idivsical sehes li narticiD.-itiiiL ' in liealllil ' ul siMirls. 3 1 ' ?

DKBF I S IB iim Intercollegiate Conference Track and Field Meet IS iiK ' el, ci inline inly kn wn as the Conference Meet, is held annually on the afternoon of the first Saturday in June, under the auspices of the Intercollegiate Conference Athletic Asso- ciation. However, the list of entries has grown SI large that it has been found necessary to lid some of the preliminaries on the Friday afternoon preceding the Meet. The Meet is open to all schools in the Conference, and to such schools not in the Conference which may receive invitations from the Board of Directors. The Meet has attained such high success and has become so famous that schools as far west as the Pacific coast enter large teams. Xotable among these is Leland Stanford University, whose ath- letes have won distinction for their Alma Mater. The cham- pionship of the Meet goes to the team having a plurality of points, which arc awarded as follows: First ])lace in each event shall count li e ])oints. second place three points, third place two points, fourth place one point, and in case of a tie the points are divided. Gold, silver and bronze medals are given for first, second and third places respectively, and ribbon is given for fourth place. The school winning the championship gains pos- session of a large silver loving cup, presented by A. G. Spaulding and Brothers. A school may gain permanent possession of it by winning three consecutive championships. The University of Michigan is the only school attaining this feat, having won the first three Conference Meets. The present Cup has adorned the trophy rooms at the University of Michigan, winner in 1904 and 1906; the University of Chicago, winner in 1905 and 1908; the University of Illinois, winner in 1907 and 1909, and is now in the possession of the University of Missouri. This is the first time in the history of the Conference that the Meet has been awarded to Purdue, and we are indeed for- IVW ■inirniii p WWWt Ffl f C 31 miE tunate in securing it. as it means that schools from all mi middle West and far West will send representatives t( campus. Great preparations are being made to make thi twelfth annual Intercollegiate Conference INlcet, lietter th: previous Meets. This Meet, held here the same Spring with the first Annua Interscholastic Baseball Tournament, and the Indiana Interschol- astic Track and Field Meet, helps to make the year 1912 go down in history as the banner athletic year of all time at Pur- due University. Our only regret is that the Meet is held so late in the year that we are imable to publish the results in this, the Year li ' ook of the Class of 1912.

' iiiiiiiiiiii mic ai EDIE I THE 1 12 r EB.R I3 IE aim State Interscholastic Baseball Tournament IGH school basketball tournaments and high school track and field meets have become so numerous in the last fe.v years that the announcement of a new one, to be held by some college or university, does not cause very much excitement or comment. But to our own school, Purdue, must be conceded the credit tor inaugurating something so entirely new and unique that the entire athletic world has been stirred. During the baseball season of 19U, while Athletic Director Xicol was scouring the country in search of promising baseball material for the Cincinnati Baseball Club of the National League, the idea was conceived of holding a State High School Baseball Tournament within the confines of Stuart Field; i. e., to bring together the high school baseball teams of the State of Indiana, and by the process of elimination absolutely settle the championship of the entire State. At first glance, the idea appeared preposterous because of its magni- tude. Immediate action was not taken, but every detail was gradually worked out until it reached a point where reasonable success was assured. Three main and important factors, there were to commend the project; first, by such a plan the championship of the State in baseball could be definitely determined; secondly, such widespread interest would manifest itself that the great National game would receive an impetus which would go far tov. erds keeping it on that high plane to which it has attained in the last decade; thirdly, by bringing together between .SOO and 1.200 high school athletes at Purdue on such a mission, the school would be benefited to an extent which can be determined only by a trial. The motive for the project being excellent, the question then presented itself, Is it possible to hold such a mammoth undertaking at Purdue? and the answer came immediately, Is it indeed and what other school is as ably fitted to do this very thing as our own Alma Mater? Purdue is the only school in the United States having six regulation, first class baseball diamonds within one inclosure. An important dis- closure, we admit, but would six diamonds enclosed by one fence be enough to play all the games? Let us see: one game of baseball can be played in less than two hours. If twelve teams started at nine o ' clock in the morning to play six games on six diamonds, they would be through by eleven o ' clock; beginning at eleven, twelve other teams would play six more games by one o ' clock; taking an hour ofi: for dinner, six more games could be played between two and four; and the time elai)sing between four and six additional games, passed down to history. Thus we would have between the hours of nine in the morning and six in the evening, forty- eight teams crossing bats in twenty-four championship games. The number of teams entered would determine the days duration of the tourna- ment. There being no argument against it, and much praise for it, the enormous plan was put into action, and the week ending May eighteenth was the week agreed upon as the proper time. As soon as the plan was made public, the firm of A. G. Spalding Brothers, recognizing its merit, presented the Athletic Manage- ment with a beautiful silver loving cup, 22 inches high, stand- ing on an ebony base 4 inches high, to be in turn presented to the winner of the tournament and engraved with the proper inscrip- tion. The Athletic Association took steps to have individual gold medals made for the members of the winning team, and a loving cup for the team finishing as run- ner-up. It was further decided to present banners to teams win- ning their semi-finals and pen- nants to teams winning their pre- liminary games. In order to perfect the system further, a corps of professional baseball officials were engaged to act as officials during the series. Mr. Mike M. •ers, famous as being the foremcst umpire of college games in the West, was apijointed chief of the umpires, and his decision in case of a dis- pute was to be final, Long before the opening day .irrived, every detail was worked (int, and the First Annual State High School Interscholastic Base- liall Tournament was an assured 2 IMMP F.

DE BF I S IE aim Interscholastic State Track and Field Meet ' ING made arrangements to initiate the new running track by holding the Conference Track and Field Meet on it, and having planned and perfected the First Annual Baseball Tourna- ment for this Spring, Director Nicol seemed to feel that Purdue might as well have evervthing there was to have in the athletic line while it. There was only one thing left, namely, the Field Meet, and that didn ' t seem awarded to Earlham she was about State Interscholastic Track an very probable, as it had alread f,,r ' l912. However, when the Atliletic Committee o High School Athletic Association was holdin f the Indiana State m the early part of the Winter, Nic appeared on deck and asked for a hearing. Before the meeting adjourned, Earlham graciously liostponed their turn until 1913 and the news soon spread around that another attraction had been added to the already large pro- gram of athletic programs which were scheduled for the spring of l ' )12. . s the date had already been set for May ISth, it was de- cided to retain that date anj use the Meet as a fitting climax to the Tournament Week by holding t he final game of the series on Saturday morning and then run off the meet in the afternoon. This was the second Interscholastic Meet held at Purdue within the last four 3 ' ears and eclipsed the former one, both in number of entries and the records made. Both the Baseball Tournament and the Track Meet were under the direct supervision of Director Nicol. with several com- mittees taking care of the various departments,, but the meet was held under the auspices of the Indiana High School Ath- letic Association. During the entire duration of the Tournament ' eek, Stuart l ' icld was dressed in gala attire and never looked better than at that time. The entire student body deserves great credit for the manner in which they stood by the helm and piloted our visitors from one form of entertainment to another. Not only did this courtesy produce a feeling of admiration for, and good will towards the school, but it strengthened the Purdue Spirit, because every student in the University was working toward a common end, for a good cause, and nothing could result other than a bond of comradeship and unity.

Will it ever be forgotten how well, how heartily and with what burst of en- thusiasm this staunch supporter of Purdue athletics and University activities led the yells of the Old Gold and Black? It was not the leading of a fanatic nor was it that of a fun seeker, but that of an honest, conscientious, hard worker putting forth all his earnest efforts in an en- deavor, and it might be added that tlic endeavor was entirely successful, to slmw his loyal Purdue Spirit. Dan came to Purdue after having become well versed in the ways of the world and upon his election as yell leader of the ' 12 Class, it was soon discovered that in this happy chap were the quali- fications of the best yell leader in school. In his junior year these qualifications be- came more marked and his rare judgment in the selection of yells gained him wide- spread approval and popularity as a yell leader. It was first thought that after the grad nation of Taylor in ' 09, a yell leader as capable would not be a possibility at that time. Soon, however, this thought was banished at Dan ' s debut as ' arsity as- sistant. Should he again decide to return to the foreign isles among the dark-skinned races, it would be no surprise to some day find him leading these southern na- tives at their festivities. Not alone do his merits lie in the lead- ing of yells, for a better good fellow could hardly be found. The black and gold sweater, the large megaphone and the fa- miliar Irish brogue w-ill long be remem- bered by all those who have yelled the series under his able direction. In all ac- tixities, either athletic or otherwise, he ci ' uUl always be found somewhere to the tore. The broad smile, in the back of which was a large sombrero, won him a ' ace in the hearts of many, and his de- si e activity a place in the esteem of I S IE aum 31 EDIE ai 1 IE aiiEi3 T ThCi BLtACI-IEB CycLODS XUCMS ni S EYt Upon TMt CjfelDlliOM QUEEIX.

The game witli Chicago was played in a drizzling rain, which was most uncomfortable to the rooters, but which had apparenth ' no effect whatever on the players. Chicago received the kick-off and for a while appeared to have a great advantage. H owever, as soon as Purdue gained possession of the ball the tide was turned, and with mighty plunges and long end runs, Fletcher and Oliphant starring, the Maroons were forced back to their 30-yard line. Oliphant was called upon for a drop kick and demonstrated his ability by booting it over, thereby drawing first blood. The Old Gold and Black goal was crossed but once during the entire game, Chicago getting the re- maining scores by field goals. The team played wonderful ball and although defeated by the small score of 11 to 3. gave promise of great victories in the remaining games of the season. As usual, die band performed creditably and proved superior to the Maroon band both in e.xecution and appearance. The following week there did not happen to be any game sched- uled, but Coach Horr sent the A ' arsity against the Freshmen, with the result that some surprisingly weak places were discovered in the backfielcl and line play. There was a lack of team w-ork and al- though the team practiced hard during the following week, when DePauw was met. the Boilermakers barely nosed out a victory, scor- ing a lone touchdown. The exhibition was ragged, and with the Illinois game but a week off prospects for further successes did not seem ver)- bright. Notwithstanding the refusal of the faculty to permit an excur- sion, several hundred students accompanied the squad to Champaign on November 4th. It was a typical football day. and with several of the mini stars out of the game, it seemed that Purdue might have IE :iD 31 iim a chance to defeat their . ' Id-tinii.- rivals. This was chspclled after the close of the first half, hnwever. Purdue put up a strong game in the first two quarters, with the wind in their favor, but shortly- after the opening of the second half Illinois, through brilliant line- plunging, coupled with long tackle plays and end runs, sent two men over the goal line. In the final period Coach Horr shifted the line- up and the Old Gold and Black swept the Suckers off their feet, car- rying the liall to within three inches nf the goal, only to lose on downs. , n e cn break in luck would have tied the score. I ' .ut Illinois won, 12 too. There was little difference the follow-ing Saturday against Iowa. The eleven that met Purdue that day was easily the best team that we had met that season and more plainly than ever was shown the superiority of team work over individual play. Double passes, fake pla s tlirou,i;li the line and long shifts were too much, and Iowa won, 11 to 0. ( )liphant showed U]) well for Purdue, on one occasion carrying the ball f.ir . . ards through tlie entire field, only to be caught from Ixhind. The Indiana game was only two weeks distant and the poor form that Purdue had shown plainly evinced the necessity for stringent work if the Old Gold and Black hopetl to be victorious. Coach Horr was equal to it. . complete shift in the lineup was made. Bigger men were put on the wings, strict practice rules were enforced, and a number of new plays were taught. Blackboard drill was instituted. The result of all this was that when Rose Poly left Lafayette after the game on November 18th extreme dejection over the prospects had given way to elation, and the result of the closing game was not in much doubt. Ro c Poly was defeated 35 to 6. Winston played brilliantly in the line and scored hve of Purdue ' s touchdowns. As the time drew near for Indiana those who had watched the team practice were asttmished at the rapid ity and celerity with which the team moved. There was a snap, a vim, an organization that had been lacking earlier. The men were playing a fighting style and moved like a machine. Indiana had been touted as a win- ner — odds were against Purdue. The gridiron was a sea of mud despite efforts to dry it up with straw and sand. The Crimson root- ers were confident, while Purdue ' s were expectant. Shortly after the kick-off, on the second play, King went over for the first Indiana touchdown in three minutes and failed at goal. ' isions of another huge defeat began to appear, but not for long. After the next kick-off Purdue men were fighting like demons, cheered on by the thousands on the side lines. Indiana held bravely for a few minutes, but it was bucking the inevitable, and when Indi- ana was held for downs and Purdue took the ball, Horr ' s brilliant repertoire of plays showed their value. Forward passes never failed and on Sheldon ' s own play two touchdowns were scored by Purdue and both goals kicked. Twice more was the ball within a short dis- tance of the goal, but lost on downs. Hutchinson played a brilHant game at quarter-back. Oliphant starred in open field work, and Tavey tackled sure and hard. Every man was a credit. Not a cliange was made during the entire game. Purdue won — 12 to 5. SUMMARY Purdue Purdue 3 Purdue 5 Purdue 3 Purdue Purdue 35 Purdue 12 Purdue 5S Wabash ... Chicago . . . De Pauw .. Illinois ... Iowa State Rose Poly .

Morrow and Sebald proved one of the best batteries in tlic Big Eight; Doc Hier on first base was an All-Conference choice; Miles on second put up a fast, classy game; Captain Binder at short- stop was closing a career in baseball at Purdue and did excellent work ; Montfort pla} ' ed his first game on the third sack this season. but was a strong player. In the field Heekin held down the left garden and handled the stick well; Summy playing in center was a sure fielder, a strong thrower and a good batsman, besides alternat- ing in the box ; Kelly put up a fast, snappy game in right, and was a good man on the coaching line. Mauck was alternate pitcher. This was the team that Coach Xicol picked fmin a large field of candidates, and the wisdom of his choice was shown in the way the ' finished the season. The first two minor games of the season with Hanover and DePauw were easy victories, Hanover getting a shutout, 6 to 0, wliile DePauw drew a 5-to-3 defeat. The next two games were called on ai stance. if rain, portunclv in one in- iteli - 31 office is Hells Ha EZ3II ai THB I IZ DEBR.I3 IE aiEiB If Xurthwcsteni came to Lafayette, only to get a lO-to-7 game taken away from them. It was a slugging bee, both teams hitting the ball hard, and errors assisting in piling up the score. Bunched hits at the opportune ti me was all that saved Purdue. Then Illinois asserted her claim to Conference rights by shutting out Nicol ' s Con- ference aspirants. 4 to 0. Kemnian pitched excellent ball for Illinois and Purdue lost on loose playing when hits meant runs, and an error allowed several men to cross the pan. It was the hrst defeat of the season. The northern trip was the next event on the ]iriii, ' ram. This trip has always been a victorious one for the ( )1 1 C.old and I ' dack, and this year it did not prove the exception. At Wisconsin in the return game Purdue won 8 to 5. It was a ragged game, neither team showing much of the class that was so apparent in their former game. The ne.xt scheduled game was with Xorthwestern at Evans- ton, and Summy went into the box. lie pitched a good game an ! was supported well, the Boilermakers winning 4 to 1. The next aft- ernoon was to have been Purdue Day at Chicago, but rain fell dur- ing the first hours of the afternoon and it was necessary to call the game otif before it had gone far enough to allow either team to claim any advantage. Wisconsin came to Lafayette on their snuthern trip, and in one of the prettiest games ever seen on Stuart Field were beaten in a 2-to-l game. Both nines played brilliantly and the spectators were treated to a rare exhibition of college baseball. ] Iorrow had his underhanded ball working to perfection, while the men behind him played errorless ball. The Suckers were listed as the next opponents of the Purdue nine on Stuart Field. Keeping up their winning streak, Captain Binder ' s men won a 5-to-3 contest. It was another exciting game, with the opposing pitchers fighting it out in the box. The lUini could not hit Heinie when necessary. After winning four straight victories it took Indiana to stop the flight, and when the dust had blown awav from the score board the Crimson had one more tally IC y ,; n 2 J mjJJ f ' { I [ ai -eyed baby doll!

In a bat-fest Purdue tallied twelve runs while Chicago was only able to score nine markers. It was the closing Conference game of the season for both teams and the players allowed themselves to relax after the first few innings. The victory meant no change of position for either team in the Big Eight standing. During Gala Week Coach Nicol had scheduled the ' aseda Japanese team for an exhibition game on Stuart Field. The Japs were not e(|ual to Pur- due, however, and were easily defeated in a 5-to-l game, their lone run coming as a result of balk. The prospects for this season are not of the best, a number of men having either withdrawn from the University or graduated. Of the infield Sebald, catcher, and Miles, last season ' s second baseman, are the only men remaining, wdiile Summy and Kelly are the only two players in the outfield still eligible to play. However, there is an abundance of good material for all positions, and there is no ijuestion that Coach Nicol will have another strong team in shape tor the first games of the season.

DBBR I S IE HIEI] Basketball Season L ' RDUE has won the basketball championship again, and it is not hard to tell the reason, or reasons. Coach Jones is the best basketball coach in the West, which explains one reason. The other reason is that the equals of the five men constituting our team were never before gathere 1 together in one unit. Stockton. McX ' augh, Barr and Johnson were all four regulars of the champion team of 1910-11, and when this season started Joe Malarkey slipped into his old place in the machine as though Fate had molded him for just that purpose. When these five well- trained veterans answered the call for candidates the rooters sat back and smiled, for they knew that Jones would whip them into as good a team as he had the previous year. Interest ran high at the outset, and mounted rapidly as the season progressed, until at the finish the school was basketball wild. . lthough Wisconsin maintained an average of 1000 per cent., the chani]iionship unddubtedly belongs to the Purdue five, fur two namely : ( 1 ) Purdue won the championship the previous year and as she did not lose a game this season, it is evident that the championship could not be taken away from her; (2) although Purdue and ' isconsin did not encounter each other, they met and defeated the same teams, and Purdue won over every other team by an exceedingly large margin, whereas Wisconsin barely nosed out her victories. Throughout tlie season the team played a fast, clean, machine- like type of ball, and continually subdued individual work for team play. Xo finer set of men ever represented the Old Gold and Black on any team, and the whole University community is mighty proud of them. The Purdue audiences were the wonder and envy of all visiting teams, as the attendance at all games averaged close to 2,500 people. This number is from four to five times as great as the attendance figures at any other school. There was never any boisterousness, and both upon entering and leaving the gymnasium the crowd main- tained an order that was commendable. The student police squad. IC II i y ■iiiiiiiml LI MMT 31 C 31 Danielson to Professor Rowell- lOlIE ai THB i ia. i:)BBF i s ic IIHB under tht abk- leadership of Captain Carl eii, was the recipient of much praise, and every bit of it was deserved, because .the work of every man on the squad was efficient to the highest degree. THE SEASON. The opening game of the season was on January 8th against the Butler College aggregation. A glance at the score of 31 to 12 tells the story. The P urdue team was in prime working order and at no time was there any question of the result, although Barr was unable to play. Malarkey, playing his first game, was the star, scoring ten field goals and playing brilliant ball. Following the Butler game a practice contest with Earlham had been scheduled, and the best that Purdue could do was a score of 67 to 8. Captain Mc ' augh came into his own in this contest and staged twelve tield goals, the largest number scored throughout the season in any one game. Every man on the team scored two field goals or more. The Big Eight season pro])er opened the fdluwing week with Northwestern at Lafayette. Although Purdue won 31 to 10, the playing was ragged and prospects for a championship five were not very brilliant. Barr played his first game of the season and tied for the high score of tlie evening in the basket throwing line. ithin a few days, however. Coach Jones had a team whipped into shape tliat had little trouble in handing Indiana the short end of a 34-to-18 score, I ' .arr and Mc ' augh together scoring seventeen baskets, Barr registering eight and Mc ' augh nine of this number. On Saturday of the same week the team went to Champaign for the first Illinois game. The result was feared, and the score at the end of the first half showed the Suckers in the lead. With only eight minutes to play the score was tied, but Coach Jones opened the throt- tle and when the contest was called Purdue was the victor, 35 to 20. Chicago was the next victim, but the contest with the Maroons proved the hardest to date. Chicago played an excellent game, but Purdue ' s superior work in the opening round was too much and the contest was another victory, 3i to 23. With another hard game but a few days oflf, the team practically laid off, but Illinois was not able to break Purdue ' s winning streak and was beaten 28 to 14 in the Memorial Gymnasium. Minnesota, with Lawder in stellar role, was unable to break up Purdue ' s ofTense and the Old Gold defense was too much for the Gopher wonder, Jolmson guarding him cleverly throughout. Superior work all the time, cmipled witli a new style of oflfense, did the trick, 30 to Id. The next Saturday at Chicago the I ' .oilermakers almost met D I f ' -i ' i QQ Q J I2 jm li I r 31 mic 211 1. IE sum their Waterloo. The game was nip and tuck for the greater part of the second half and the latter part of the first. A lead in the first few minutes proved most efficacious, and the Maroons could not batter it down. Only the best headwork on the part of the Purdue players was responsible for the victory, for the Chicago team was fighting and playing rings around us at many stages of the game. The score was the lowest of the season — 31 to 22. Xorthwestern the following night was easy — 33 to 13 — Purdue inlaying very listless and mediocre ball. There remained but a single game that niiglit be feared — Min- nesota, at Minneapolis. But Purdue was equal to the emergency, and won. 24 to 12. Johnson held Lawler to a scoreless game, scor- ing a basket himself. Indiana closed the season and Purdue playing in only a small percentage of their regtilar form, counted up 45 markers to Indiana ' s 11 points. A post-season game with ' iscon- sin proved impossible. Columbia, eastern champii ais. had disbanded and Purdue followed suit, western chani|)i.in ' - fur the second con- secutive year.

EDIEC 211 THB l Dl I S IE aiEo Track Season 1911-1912 HL ' RDUE ' S outdoor track season last Spring was one of the most successful that has been enjoyed for some time. The team was composed of excellent men, some of whom were not only Purdue stars, but Conference stars. The strong events were particularly the dashes and hurdles, the former being taken care of b ' Hoffman and Tavey, and the latterby Richards and Hauter. Hoff- man won the 220-yard dash at the Conference meet last Spring and placed in every meet held, a record to be envied. Richards, too, was always a sure point gainer in the hurdles and has always been our favorite since the ( ' eparture of Firteld. The distances were equally well taken care of by such a]ilc men a W ' ason, Cleveland. Calvin, Goss and Roberts, five men. all nf wlmni were point win- ners. The shot put and the discut throw were well provided for in Stockton, who almost invariably placed in both events. Gannon was reliable in the pole vault, and Savior and ; Ic ' augh in the high jump were dependable. Purdue ' s liniad junipers were Rich- ards and Stockton. The indoor seasmi, whicli began at the time of the meet with Illinois on February ,i, l ' M2. was not as successful as expcL-ted. due to the graduation uf ucli stars as Hoffman. Richards, W ' ason and Gannon, in addition to the ineligibility or sickness of nine or more other men who had been counted upim to fill the vacancies left by those graduated. Considering the fact that Coach Jones had to build up an entirely new team out of the new material, the showing made by the men gave proof of exceedingly splendid prospects. The men showed that un ' er the continue 1 tutelage of the Diminutive Wizard Purdue would again have a number of record-making track men. Alrea ' y there ha e fieen several star finds discovered, and with Stockton ami McNaugh from the basketball team in the fold tins Spring ' s outdoor season should bring some victories to Punlue. The team will lose Stockton, Mc ' augh, Tavey, Calvin, Leam- ing and Hauler through graduation, but with hopes of the return of Roberts and Cleveland ami the prospective Freshmen, next sea- son should again see one of Purdue ' s liest track teams. 31 EOIB ai THE I IZ.

He always ran in top-notch form, and there were no off days for this classy hurdler, thus making him one of our surest point-gainers. Richards is one of the best hurd;ers in the West. and his loss is keenly felt. HOFFMAN, G. ack uit. His ade ran the one hundred and two-twenty in record time. Quite frequently he would clip the 100- yrd dash in ten flat, a time which requires a re- markable sprinter to do with any degree of regu- larity. Quick on the start and always having a burst of speed in reserve for crossing the tape, made this man usually pass the line first.

He is an athletic enthusiast of the type of Sir Thomas Lipton : a true sportsman, whether in victory or defeat. However, he loves a winner, and in 1900 he undertook to prove it in a substantial way by ofifering a gold medal, or a loving cup, to the Purdue athlete who suc- ceeded in winning the 100- yard dash in ten seconds flat, or better, and the same offer was made to the Purdue man who should have the good for- tune to lower the Conference record of twenty-one and three-fifth seconds for the 220-yard dash, now held by Hahn, of Michigan. The rules governing the awarding were that the record be made in a regular contest with some other school, and that the prize could not be won by the same man twice. During the season of 1502 Victor Rice, ' 03, won the lOO-yard dash in a contest in the required time of ten seconds flat and was the proud recipient of the Coulter medal. For seven years no athlete reached the high standard set, as a result of which very few students in the University knew of the offer. In the Spring of 1909 Horace Bebb Hench, ' 10, stepped out uiinn the cimler path for a little recreation from a winter of hard study and iirnceoded to sur])rise himself and every one else by winning the 100-yard dash three successive Saturdays in the fast time of ten seconds flat. 1 lench chose the loving cup, and so we have the Stanley Coulter Cup instead of the Stanlcv Coulter Medal. George L. Hoffman, ' 11, running mate to Hench, decided that there was no time like the present for garnering the coveted honor, and during the season of 1911 he almost threw Dean Coulter into a panic by fulfilling the requirements of the lOO-yard dash. Four watches caught him in nine and four- fifths seconds, but ten seconds flat was given out as the official time. Dean Coulter bore up well under the shock and said that although loving cups didn ' t grow on trees, still he was willing to give one, or more, every year if Purdue would turn out such winners. Hofifman figured that Dr. Coulter was a pretty good man to tie to, and as Dr. Coulter is a great lover of winners, the present school year found George located in the Science De- partment. Throughout this year he has shown his devotion to his alma mater by lending a very helpful hand in assisting the coaches to riiuml out a gooil track team.

EDIB III THE 1 12. i: BBR I S IE aim The Nicol Cup Director Xicol is an admirer of tiie cross country run as a form of exercise, as he believes the benefits derived from it are twofold. It is a game in which the number of participants is unlimited, thus aiding the physical d evelopment of many men instead of the chosen few, as in the other games. Secondly, many men who do not know their own athletic ability join the squad for the purposes of recrea- tion and develop to the point where they are valuable assets to the ' Varsity track team. However, the daily runs, kept up for any length of time, soon become irksome to those who do not at first seem to have a ver - good chance of making the team which competes in the Conference run. With the idea of stimulating these men to further interest and renewed efforts. Director Nicol offered a cup to the winner of the local cross country run, in addition to the jersey, cap and jjennant, which have been the prizes for the winners for some time. The run is open to any student in Purdue and is over a four an 1 one-half mile course. The cup is a silver loving cup, mounted on an ebony base, having a suitable inscription engraved upon it. A good idea of its appearance may be obtained from the picture shown on this page. A new cup is presented each year and the owner keeps it in his possession permanently. J. L. Roberts, Lafayette, Indiana, class of 1913, is the first recipient of the honor. He led the field over the four and one-half mile course in the fast time of twenty-two minutes and forty sec- onds, thereby breaking the Purdue record, which was twenty-six minutes and thirty seconds, held by Wasson, ' 11. Fully two and one-half miles were run against a strong wind, which was a great handicap to the runners. However, the time made was excep- tionally fast for file course, and the record will probably stand for some time. 211 K?S?H I Q J J JJJJ K?4 l I Shute— Rowell 31 mm 31 THI Cross Country Team ic C. C. Parker EOIB HI THE 1 12. DKBR,I S IE mm Cross Country URDUE ' S cross country season was the most m- teresting and successful that has ever been en- joyed. Three runs were held this year— the Xicul cup run. the tryout for the Conference team an 1 the Conference run itself. Roberts, who had been elected captain, and his men began work two weeks following the beginning ni -.chool, and most encouraging is the knowledge of the fact that many freshmen trained with the ' Varsity men, showing a decided increase in interest and splendid prospects for next season. The first run of the season, the Nicol cup run, held on Novem- ber 4th, was hotly contested and most of the men finished close. Roberts trotted across the line first and Cleveland, Cunningham, Gilbert, Brown and Reid finished in the order named. A week later the Purdue representatives were chosen, a tryout being held in the afternoon. The weather was quite cold, but the conditions were favorable toward a fast run. Some nineteen men entered and the start was good, all the men being bunched during the first part of t e race. The finish was in front of the grand stand, with Cleveland in the lead. Roberts, who had been instructed to lie back, came in fifth. The others finished as follows: Reid, Cunningham, I ' geler and Franks. These were the men chosen to compete at the Conference meet, but Franks, not having submitted his name in time, could not run, his place being taken by Krey, who took seventh place in the tryout. On November 25th Iowa City was the scene of the 1911 Con- ference meet and the conditions were decidedly unfavorable. Throughout the entire lenth of the course there was nearly si.x inches of mud, making record time an impossibility. On the descent of the first hill Captain Roberts collided with another contestant, causing him to become semi-conscious until upon the last course, whereupon he again recovered. Purdue finished fourth, which was one place higher than the previous season. Of the Old Gold and P.lack men Roberts was the first man to finish, then came Cleve- land and Reid. With the number of Freshman candidates and all of the old men again qualilieil to compete, next season shnuld prove Pur- due ' s best.

IF; Tennis Associatiim last Spring anl Fall en- joye ' l one of the most successful seasons since its advent here at Purdue. Since the completion (if the new courts at the north of Stuart Field, last Spring, they have been in continual use. The graduation of former President Hollings- worth made it necessary for thi.s vacancy to be lillcl. M tlie last election of officers Rockenbach. former secretary, was made president and C. W. JMcLeish secretary. The important features of la.st tennis season were the State Intercollegiate Tournament held here in the Spring an 1 the tryout for the Old Gold and Black representatives. An opening in the doubles team was made by Ransbury failing to return to school. The representatives were chosen by means of an elimination tourna- ment, the rules governing being those of the National Lawn Tennis Association. The winners were Whayne an 1 Rockenbach, doubles, and Rockenbach, singles. Two weeks following this preliminary contest for Purdue ])layers the State tournament was in full sway, the entries being liutler, DePauw, Indiana, Franklin, Hanover and Purdue. The tournament was played upon the courts of the Govern- ment Experiment Station on account of recent storms and rains having washed the news courts of the Association in such a man- ner as to make them totally unfit for play. Unfortunately Hanover and Franklin did not appear, leaving the play for State champion- siiip between DePauw, Butler, Indiana an ! Purdue. Butler was represented by Cully Thomas, present title holder, in singles, and Thomas and Baker, doubles ; DePauw, Dale, singles. Dale and Cornelius, doubles ; Indiana, Cassell, singles, R. Kent and Roberts, doubles ; and Purdue by the winners in the tryouts. In tlie draw Ijutler and DePauw were matched both in doubles and singles, and Purdue and Indiana matched likewise. Thomas and Dale gave an interesting CNdiibition of tennis play, notwithstanding the fact that it was entirely too early for seasoned steadiness and accuracy. The two matches between the capitol city school and the Methodists resulted in a Thomas, and Thomas and Baker, victory. Quite a bit of interest was shown in the Purdue-Indiana matches, due, of course, to the friendly athletic rivalrv existing between the two sister schools. It again befell our pleasure to read the reports: PURDUE DEFEATS INDI- ANA ! The finals and championship lay between the Boilermakers and Butler, the latter being the defendant of the title. It was in this match that our team blew up. showing lack of practice, and Thomas and Baker, through clever stroking, again defended the title successfully in both events, retaining their hold upon the Indiana Intercollegiate championship. This year the tournament is to be hel 1 at Butler and it is hoped that the State championship title will rest with Purdue in 1912. Last Fall, at the opening of school, the courts ha 1 previously been put into good playing condition and the membership began to increase rapidly. It was pleasing to note not only the response of so many of the student body in the support of a fairly infant organization, but the popularity of one of the cleanest exi,sting sports of today among Purdue men. Soon the north end of Stuart Field became a scene of white flanneled enthusiasts and eager onlookers, proof being evinced that there is an abundance of good material for a championship team. It is to be hoped that tennis will gain a foothol 1 so as ti gain us a membership in the National Lawn Tennis Associatiim. which, if attainable, would be the highest advancement that coul 1 be desired. A decision was niaile to reserve a court for the co-c ' s, and. judging from the iiiiniciliatc r espi;nsc an! niembers1ii])s received from them, the decisinn pv. i c 1 in . l excellent and successful. The ladies of the L ' ni er-ily lia e a sininier sport now offered thcni which they have never heretnlnre enjuyed. The total membership of the Association has increased ,so that preparation is being made for the erection of some additional courts. For the first time in the University ' s histnrv tennis has gaine 1 a firm foothold and prestige as a sejiar.-itc atldetic (irganizatimi. Though but a secondary at present, conliniie I ra])i 1 strides will undoubtedly bring it to the fore as a majcr .pnrt. Ei3ir um HMLIE Here ' s to the football Here ' s to the hoy Here ' s to the man wh And the fellow wh- Inlcn-lass athletics have grown tea ' lily since their incubation. Wlien the suliject of conipetition lictwcen classes was first broached, fail- ure of the project seemed most imminent, though at last a class baseball league was organized and the ball was started rolling on a path that has been unusually smooth. Heretofore those with any athletic inclination who did not have the time, or whose abili- ties did not warrant ' Varsity competition, were forced to be content with a small amount of exercise in the gymnasium. Facilities afiforded in the gymnasium at that time were none of the best. The first baseball league brought out scores of enthu- siasts — the success was assured and ground was allotted the various classes as practice grounds. The popularity of the baseball sea- son ran into the football season the following year and then into track. Basketball was taken up. and one of the most efficient means of developing athletes and aiifording healthful and beneficial exer- cise with the spice of competition was established. The award by the classes of numerals was another step towards perpetuating the system. This past season, or the season since the preceding Debris went to press, has been a most successful one. Probably more than at any other time before, the classes were evenly matched up. In baseball, football and indoor track some of the prettiest fights of years were seen when the class representatives got together in a battle for supremacy. hero grand, .vho will slide for a o a basket can hit, ) runs a good race. Baseb. ll. Starting off like winners, the 1914 aggregation of ball tossers as Freshmen carried oflf the honors in the Spring games. With an abundance of excellent playing material and with good coach- ing, the yearlings took the lead at the beginning and held it through- out the year, losing but a single game. The 1912 class made a game fight for the honors ancl when the final game of the year was forfeited to the 1914 class, through the inability of the Seniors to get together at that time, the ' 12 men were forced into second place, without a single victory in a contested game over them. The standing at the close of the season showed the 1913 players in third place and the ' 11 men bringing up the rear. Frank Mauck was captain of the winning nine and C. E. Burton led the 1912 team for second honors. Football. When the class teams got together for the first time after the opening of school the gridirons north of Stuart Field were crowded with the candidates for positions on their respective class elevens. As usual, the 1915 class had the most brilliant outlook, with a number of erstwhile high school stars and All-State men wearing their colors. Coach Dimlap and Coach Jones, Assistant ' arsity Coach, put the players through their paces, and frequent incursions into ' ' arsity territory and against the first eleven soon put the Freshmen in prime condition. The Seniors, Jiuiiors and Sophomores also had good prospects. ' 2 j ESI C EI3IIE 211 THE l ia. E)BBF I S IE aiEi: As was expected, the Freshmen went through the season with- out a single defeat being chalked against them. Their hue was impregnable and the backfield unusually fast. It was the heaviest class team in man) ' years. R. T. Vbrell was captain of the win- ning team. Of the remaining class elevens the Juniors were easily the best. Only the Freshmen were able to lower their colors, although the Sophomore game w-as a close one. Heekin. of the A ' arsity the preceding season, and a number of old players made the 1913 team a strong one. R. C. Lowry was captain of the 1913 team. The Sophomore team finished in third place, with the Seniors bringing up the rear. B. SKETB. LL. The 1915 class also carried away the honors in the basketball league. Under Miller, a former ' ' arsity man, and with some un- usual material, the five that was whipped into shape represented the very best all-around class team ever in school. Teeple, center, had a reputation for high school work coupled with the right size and build ; Shively, forward, was an All-Ohio State forward and a fast, hard player ; Kenzler, his running mate, was a West Lafayette product, but a fast, hard player and a hard man to guard. Barry, captain and guard, was big and husky and a player on the State championship Lebanon team and also an All-State man. Schaffer, guard, had played with Barr at Rochester and had no trouble in showing his superiority over the remaining class men. He likewise had been an All-State player. The Freshmen won easily with a perfect percentage, with the 1914 team in second place, five hundred points below. The Seniors were in third place and the Juniors brought up the rear, one game behind. C. M. Barry was captain of the winning 1915 team and H. B. Reiling led the five that landed second honors. Indoor Track. This branch of athletics had received very little stimulus. The dearth of material for the ' Varsity called out the best men and after competing for the ' Varsity these men were ineligible in their own events. However, Coach Jones arranged for the annual indoor meet, and here again the Freshmen carried away the honors easily. By fifteen points the underclassmen led the remaining entries, with the Sophomores coming into the second position and the Juniors and Seniors finishing in the order named.

DEBR I S IIZ HIEU] The past year has been one of suet ess to the PurtUie Society of Civil Engineers. The worl; of securing portraits of famous engineers for the seminar room has been carried on while the custom of giving a luncheon after the first open meeting of the year has been discontinued. The attendance has been good, although, contrary to the custom of last year, the speakers have been chosen from the alumni and from among men of reputation in the engineering world rather than from the members of the student body. Such a policy has been found to be of much benefit and those who attended the meetings considered themselves well repaid. on European Tour, Prof. MEETIX October (i. S wage Disposal in Chicago.

Within the last year the society adopted the local button bearing the emblem of the national society. The purpose of the branch is to interest the student in subjects per- taining to mechanical engineering and to bring him in touch with the great engineers of the country. Discussion of engineering subjects are entered into at these meetings by professors, instructors and students. During the past year a great deal of interest has been shown in the meet- ings by both the officials and the members. The society has been fortunate in securing such able speakers through- out the year, who, in every case, presented their subjects in a clear and concise manner, making them verj ' interesting and instructive.

The latter existed as a local organization until April 27, 1903, when it became a part of the great national organization of Electrical Engineers, and assumed the new name. The purpose of the branch is to interest the student in electrical subjects and to bring him in touch with the great engineers of the coun- try. Discussions of engineering topics are entered into at these meetings by the professors, instructors and students in a way that can not be done in the class room. The membership is divided into local. student and associate, one class forming a stepping-stone into the next. The local members receive all the privileges of the branch except the official proceedings of the Institute. During the past year the branch tried out a new plan with very grat- ifying success. The monthly meetings were planned the first thing after school opened. The subjects chosen were such that they could be treated by student members in a manner very similar to the way the national branch subjects are treated. Between the regular meetings a number of inspection trips were t;il;en to points of interest in Lafayette and neigh- OFFICERS Prof. C. F. Hardinc Chairman Prok. a. N. TorpiNci Secretary V. A.

E)BBF I S HI HIES PHAIMACEUTICAL SOCIETY The Purdue Pharmaceutical Society was reorganized and put on a firni basis as one of the college activities by the efforts of the Seniors in 1911. Due to their labor, au interest was created in the society that was very pleasing to them, and this year in- terest has not been allowed to subside in any manner. During the last year the membership of the society has increased slightly, and the officers are making every effort to make this a record year, and in all probability it will be done. Too much credit cannot be given the faculty members who have helped make the organization stronger; their interest and advice has helped make the society an established success. A great deal of valuable information has been secured by the students from the discussions that were made at the meetings. An added interest in the work has been created and the members are brought into closer touch with each other and their in structors. The society has played another valuable part in broadening the students ' field of view. Subjects are presented in new ways and the effect is to make the men think of old subjects in an entirely new light, fully repaying the members for the in- terest taken. iim ■iiiiiiiii p wwwt ]| [ [I i i zh z ZIIhI I EZ IC 31 THB l ia.

OEFiR T Academic Conservation IE aiEi] By DiTAN Be age of conservation — conservation of forests, water powers, coal and other material resources ; conservation of human energy, in factory and on farm, in church and in college. Scientific man- agement in our industries is the present shibbo- leth, and the constant endeavor is to lay ten bricks where two were laid before. The workman is now geared and belted and oiled an 1 started and stopped, even as is his machine, and the item of depreciation becomes as apparent in the lifetime of the laborer as in that of the lathe. Rheumatism is as much of a crime as rust, and gray hairs point to the scrap heap. The experts of the Carnegie Foundation are tlirecting their attention to the uneconomic methods of the university and the col- lege and to the flagrant disregard of the principles of scientific management in our educational factories. It has been left to the sagacity and enterprise of Western educators to meet this difficulty and to apply modern industrial methods in the academic field. I wish to call your particular atten- tion to the wonderful success of the faculty of one such institu- tion. You will pardon me if I avoid unpleasant notoriety for these ]iioneers of progress by using in all cases fictitious names. The University of Idakota is the leading technical institution in the State of that name and a moderately generous support from the legislature insures permanence of income, but likewise compels careful .scrutiny of all expenditures. , s the number of students increase;! from year to year, it be- came apparent that the expenses of the institution increased in a corresponding ratio, while the income remained nearly stationary. The margin d iiidled and was in process of disappearing altogether when tlic Trcsicknt of the University called a special meeting of the Hoard of Trustees to consider the situation. lie showed them that various industrial enterprises which had been in danger of financial shipwreck had been saved by the intro- duction of an improved system, called Scientific Management, which had speedily converted deficits into surpluses. He tlien urged upon them the desirability, nay the necessity, of taking similar steps at the University of Idakota. After lengthy deliberations the Trustees consented to this plan and authorized the President to secure the services of Mr, Lewis Morellen Hooke, of TarrytowMi, a noted industrial expert. ] Ir. Hooke was speedily summoned and the President laid before him the facts in regard to the economics of the institution. He asked time for consideration as the problem presented some novel features. The following day he met the President again and addressed him in the following words : I am surprised and pleased to find how close is the parallel between the conditions which confront us in our industrial prob- lems and those which } ' ou have outlined to me. The manufacturer is engaged in preparing a pro(kict for which there is a certain demand. So are you. He has to deal with different grades of material, hard and soft, tough and weak, seasoned and green. So do you. He employs certain craftsmen and experts to shape the material into a form which shall find a ready market, and tlir e cr:iftMnrn and cxptrt--. each .and all. have their peculiarities aivl iilio, luia-ir . So in our ca c. ••He has a plant, ounrd ' or Ica.rl. .-onsisiini;- o| land an 1 build- ings, machinery and lool ,. all of which co t nionc and all oi which are expensive to maintain. ' •The efficiency of his establishment is increase 1 liy tlic quality and quantity of the output as compared with tlic tot.al expense of manufacture. The efficiency of your Univcrsitv can be measured in the same way. ' •Now. to apply the principles of scientific management to your problem. These principles, as I understand them and as I shall apply them are as follows : 1. An analysis of the process of manufacture into its elements. 2.

Mr. Hooke said several other things at this time, but as these will be apparent from what follows, I will close the quotation. The President was overjoyed at the pertinent remarks of the expert and saw an end to his troubles. He forthwith called a faculty meeting, which was addressed by himself and by Mr. Hooke in explanation of a coming change of method. Afte r several such meetings and much discussion the details of the change were carefully worked out and were put into active operation at the beginning of the next semester. The time element was the first one considered and an eight- hour day was adopted as the standard, nothing less being accepted on the part of either instructors or students. It was generally agreed that lectures had been the least etificient method of teaching and that improvement might well begin here. To determine a standard of performance a careful estimate was made of the number of words per hour enunciated by a fluent speaker. The athletic director timed with a stop watch lectures by -ari- ous members of the faculty. The professor of history and the professor of descriptive geometry divided honors in the contest, but preference was given to the former, as more of his expressions were intelligible to the committee. A lecture on political economy by the associate professor was ruled out on the ground that it con- tained no facts. The standard finally adopted was made somewhat lower than that thus determined, so as not to discourage the younger instruc- tors, and a small bonus was offered to those exceeding this limit. The efficiency of the lecture system was improved in other ways as well. Investigation disclosed the fact that in the lectures on economics the associate just mentioned used more motions than were necessary for a clear exposition on the subject, and the num- ber was reduced to four where fifteen had frequently been used. In the lectures on geology it was decide ' to exclude all irrele- vant matter, such as references to the Old Testament and to the dip of the strata at the Country Club. In chemistry likewise the committee found that rhetorical and humorous embellishments detracted from the efficiency of the lec- tures and should be excluded, or at least should not appear in the written notes of the lecturer. Spontaneous ebulitions of this sort, while not entirely germane, might perhajis be tolerated. The methods formerly in vogue for using lantern slides were uneconomical and inefficient. Considerable time was wasted by awkward assistants in manipulating the slides and inserting them wrong side up and t ' other side to. By means of an improved auto- matic holder the assistant can be dispensed with and the shdes put through the lantern at the rate of thirty per minute, being cnntnillcil by an electric button in the hands of the lecturer. In snme lectures moving pictures have been substituted for the individual slides. In descriptive geometry, for example, there is a decided advantage to the student in seeing a line actually pierce a plane or an ellipse actually rotating in its major axis. The committee next turned its attention to the conduct of recitations, where it found a lamentable waste of room, of time and of energy. In many instances rooms capable of seating sixty or seventy students accommodated sections of only twenty or twenty- five, while the amount of space devoted to the professor in charge was much greater than was necessary. L ' sually only one student recited at a time, with the result that the instructor and the remainder of the students were un- occupied. All this is now changed. By careful experiment it was found that a space four feet square was entirely sufficient for one student, leaving him room for his feet and also for the working of his in- tellect. For obvious reasons the space allotted to the professor is considerably larger, and in some of the Senior classes excep- tionally capacious intellects are allowed two squares. The number of students in a section is now controlled en- tirely by the size of the rooms used, and one full professor, two assistant professors or four instructors are assigned for each hun- dred students. The interval between recitation periods has been reduced to five minutes, as it has been found possible by the use of military formations to cover the spaces bet ' een rooms in that time. The students enter the classroom in ci mmn formation, march to the rear of the room, right about and deploy as skirmishers in open order. No chairs or settees are allowed in the rooms unless the nature of the work requires it. Thus no time is lost in rising to recite and, furthermore, the attention of the students can be kept strictly to the lesson in hand. Each student is obliged to keep within the limits of his square as outlined on the floor in wdiite paint. To avoid waste of time, recitations are conducted in concert as 31 much as possible. Chanting after the nature of a recitative keeps each man in time with tlie rest and prevents confusion. To those who are privileged to hear, it is an inspiration to listen to a class in thermodynamics chanting the definition of entropy or the deep chords of the second law. The class leaves the room as it entered, in columns, and on reaching the sidewalk marches in double quick time to the next building in order. A moderate use of lubricants has reduced the running expenses of manufacturing establishments and tended to a longer life in machines and equipment. On an alalogous principle the committee has advocated the use of smiles and pleasant e.xpressions to a lim- ited degree, as serving to lubricate the educational machinery. There has been considerable difficulty in enforcing this rule, but a mod- erate degree of success has been attained. One of the professors in the engineering schools now assumes a pleasant expression on entering the east gate of the campus and wears it continuously until he leaves at night, except when he visits the registrar ' s office or when the spark plug gets dirty. The friction losses in the wood shop have been reduced 10 per cent by a similar application of this rule. It has been found necessary to have some central bureau where all the thinking could be done economically and not left to indi- vidual caprice. The registrar ' s office was found the most con- venient for this purpose. The thoughts are all classified and ar- ranged on index cards, so they can be readily grouped for different subjects. A profes,sor or instructor has merely to notify the regis- trar that he desires to lecture on a certain topic and he will receive a clas.sified scheme of thoughts, arranged in the most effective man- ner for presenting that topic. There is a uniformity about this method of treatment which brings results in spite of the peculiari- ties of the various professors. Some difficulty was experienced at first in carrying out some of the rules which have been mentioned, especially those which aft ' ecte 1 the speed, and it was found necessary to have an inspector or manager who would go from room to room and watch for infringements. The superintendent of buildings was selected as the proper official for this purpose, since his experience in handling men would enable him to deal summarily with all offenders. . ny instructor who is found disregarding the rules of efficiency is warned and on a second offense is sent to the President for a reprimand. This is usually sufficient to bring the offender to his An attempt was made to locate the Deans in this system of management, but so far no place has been found which would allow them sufficient latitude without wrecking the general scheme, and the attempt was reluctantly abandoned. At present they are con- sidered as a part of the non-productive expense, or overhead bur- den, somewhat of the same nature as the directors of a corporation. The stores and shipping department has occasioned the Presi- dent much anxiety. It was at first thought that something cor- responding to the storehouse for raw material in an industrial plant might be inaugi-irated and that requisitions for such material might be drawn as it was needed. Owing to the perishable nature of the raw material in a unixersity, the scheme did not succeed. A sim- ilar difficulty attended the plan of a stock room, if it might be so called, for the finished product, as the expense of maintenance was found to be prohibitory. The shipping department, however, has proved itself a success. This is also administered by the registrar, who keeps close watch of the supply and demand and prevents any glutting of the market for graduates. By carefully adjusting the number in each graduating class to the demand, as evidenced by applications received from would-be employers, the stock has been kept at par. This procedure has involved at times rather large additions to the scrap heap, but it has been the experience of manufacturing corporations that this in itself is usually an evi- dence of thrift rather than of waste, i. e. it is better to condemn bad work at some present sacrifice rather than to depreciate the value of the output. Taken as a whole, the improvement in the methods of instruc- tion in the universitv named has amply justified the trouble and expense incurred. Today this institution graduates more students per instructor and per .square foot of blackboard than any other university in the West, while the uniformity of its product is the envy and despair of less efficiently organized institutions. Perhaps there is no better way to illustrate the economical ad- ministration of the work at Idakota than by describing a classroom exercise which was recentlx- witnessed by myself. The class was that in Junior Applied Mechanics and the recitation was held in Room A-21. Piuilding 7. This room was on the second floor and measured 32x40 feet, thus affording space for eighty student squares 4x4 feet. Three of these in the front center were reserved for Id EDIE 31 THE 1 12. DEE R IsS IE aim the pmfessor and two others for the entrance doors, leaving seventy- live available for students. The squares were plainly marked and numbered on the floor in white paint. As I entered the building at ' 1:57 one section of seventy-five men. led by a sergeant, were just marching out of the east door while a squad similarly led were filing up the stairs to room A-21. I followed the column, entering the room just behind the last man. They marched to the rear of the room, as has already been explained, deployed and came to the designate! squares without confusion. The professor stood at attention in his center square and as the men came into position he rapidly punched on an index card, containing a floor plan of the room, any unoccupied squares. He then motioned me from the entrance square on which I had been standing to square No. 17, whose tenant was missing. No textbook was in evidence, either in the hands of professor or students. Taking from his pocket a card of the regulation size, a pink card with a blue border, for that was the accepted com- bination for the first semester of Applied Mechanics, the professor read therefrom the lesson of the day, one paragraph at a time, something in the manner of the old-fashioned precentor in church. After each sentence he paused, while the class chanted it in unison, one of the sergeants keeping time with a baton, something like this : A Moment, the product of H force by a line. A yearning to twist or to turn is the sign, etc. As the class chanted the professor paced rapidly back and forth within the narrow limits assigned him, like a lion in a cage, constantly ejaculating, Faster, gentlemen, faster. He then proceeded to cover the board with lines and figures, writing with great rapidity and erasing what he had just written with his left elbow, while the crayon galloped across the board under the guidance of his right. The students copied the problems on pads of paper, all work- ing in unison as before. The files next the blackboards promptly proceeded to work the assigned problems, each student writing inside a four-foot square on the board, ' hen each file had com- pleted its work it retired, and by a simple evolution exchanged places with the next file, and the work went on as before. Perhaps no department of our universities is more handicapped by lack of economic management than that of athletics. The would- be athletic is hampered by all sorts of regulations which interfere with his development ; he is obliged to study subjects wdiich have no 370 bearing nn hi future career; he is compelled to attend laboratory exercises when he should be on the athletic field ; in short, he receives scant consideration in the preparation of the college cur- riculum. The faculty of Idakota recognized the injustice and th economic waste of such procedure and decided to put athletics on the same basis as other departments. A curriculum has accordingly been arranged for the sophomore, junior and senior years; an inconvenient conference rule prevents students from electing athletics until the end of the freshman year. In history the time is given mainly to the Punic and Car- thaginian wars, each student being required to commit to memory Spartacus ' Address to the Gladiators. A terse, epigrammatic style of English is cultivated, such as would be appropriate in times of great stress and excitement, when the ball is on the five-yard line or when the bases are full and two men out. The writings of Andrew Jackson, Rudyard Kipling and Theodore Roosevelt are accepted as standards. In mathematics a special course is given in permutations, com- binations and least squares leading up to solution of equations with eleven unknown quantities. The laws of falling bodies, inerita, momentum and impact are illustrated by daily practice in the athletic laboratory and much valuable research work is being conducted on the strength of ma- terials. A specially designed abrasion machine, large enough to re- ceive human beings, is now being constructed for this laboratory. Anatomy and physiology form important features of the course and ' ' First Aid to the Injured has been made an elective in the senior year. The School of Athletic Engineering has been allowed by the Insignia Board to adopt as an emblem a cross, gules, couchant in a field agent, surmounted by a ball rampant. Only those are allowed to wear this wlio have become permanently crippled in the lab- oratory. The good residts .if this system were at once demonstrated. The students of this school at once took a high place in athletic contests. The fact that they had consistently applied themselves to this subject and avoided the temptations of study, which have wrecked so many young lives, made them invulnerable. As a re- sult the reputation of Idakota has extended to the uttermost con- fines of barbarism and the prospective athletes swarm at her gates . D. T.

And it came to pass in the fourth year of Eddie, the Monk, tliat a great plague came over all the campus and the region round about. For a certain King of the East Side did harass and besiege the Inhabitants of the West Side and did give them sore uneasiness. And the name of that King was L. S. Car System, a noted wretch, of whose cruel misdeeds many had aforetime made mention. To the urgent supplication of the West Siders for better service, this cruel King gave small heed, but continued to harass them the more, sending flat-wheeled cars into their midst to jolt their gizzards if they would ride, or to arouse them from restful repose in the night watches. And when the cruel and inhuman treatment could not longer be borne, the people banded themselves together, saying, We will have no more of this, whereat they straightway made buttons hewn from the ebony tree and bearing in gold this inscription, PL ' R- DUE WALKING CLL ' l!. Xow it was decided that whoever out of his abundance should pay into the general fund three of the copper coins of the realm, should be marked with an ebony button set on the haw side of his vestment. And it came to pass that the people all with one accord hurried to deposit their small chink and the buttons stuck about the campus like a dark cloud. Among others came also Baldy Sackett, a patriarch of the realm, and did buy of the buttons. But there was much murmuring among the people at this deed and they said one to the other, Did he not just now buy for himself a new automobile and who ever saw him walk? Howbeit, Old King L, S. Car System was sore afraid and cursed softly to himself and said, If this keeps up and I am busteJ my bones will be scattered to the four winds of Heaven.

EZ3IB I T Another Three Twins 13 Unfortunately, the Biological Club and other noted exponents of learning and re- search have overlooked one of the greatest phenomena of the age, one which has come to light only recently, as the result of diligent work on the part of our editors to make this an instructive as well as pleasing publication. The following newspaper clipping from the Jungle Spotlight tells the story in concise and emphatic form: A marvelous family of monkeys, discovered in Africa and brought to this coun- try a score or more years ago, has by subsequent development had the tendency to dis- prove recent psychological experiments on man and beast and cause thinkers to revert to the Darwinian theory. This trio of man-like things has shown a marvelous development, each along the individual path in which his tendencies existed. The first of these strange beings now ranks among the most famous and skilled acro- bats; and his recent appearance before the crowned heads of Europe and the elite of th e United States has caused, not only admiration, but wonder to take possession of his audi- ences, such is the cleverness and skill of this monkey-man. So much for the first. The second member of this great trio, while showing no less intelligence than the first, is less exposed to the public eye, because he has forfeited the family pride to become a hodcarrier. Even in this position he prospers. He is a diligent worker, receiving all of $1.25 per; and, although a little short in stature and human brain, he is a tireless user of the pick, and has kept up the high standard of his fellow-workmen. Thus we see the second of this great family. The third of these renowned prodigies, though still retaining the intimate instinctive traits of his brothers, has attained what would seem to the casual observer a remarkable degree of culture. He no longer picks himself in public, but prefers the privacy of the innermost recesses of his cage; he smokes cigars (very bad ones); he talks (though rather aim- lessly); he walks (though still with the animal nerv- ous tread), and performs many useful little tricks, much to the amusement and satisfaction of those who must come in contact with him. ,Iust at present this marvelous link in the chain of evolution is employed at a prominent university in the capacity of ofBce boy and general disorganizer; and he discourses upon economics (so we learn from the catalogue). Beside these exalting positions, he has lately been taught the art of waiting on the table, and now is accustomed to carry meals to the various members of the faculty board of oppression at their modest repast of the noon hour. The accompanying photographs were taken by our staff photographer and are authentic. They show the members of this extraordinary Monk family plj ' - ing their several professions, which we will admit cause even the most pessimistic to reconsider and say, They really approach human mentality. This is a very interesting discussion, of which more later. IC i IE aicD The Present Crisis in England By Dr. Bond.

There was a lab. flunky named Finney Who looked like a corn-fed ninny; He made nocturnal raids And slaughtered the grades. And his friends, forsooth, were not many. There was Dickerson, Lank protege Of Far Cole ' s laboratory melee: When he told you what ' s what. You never forgot He ' d said nothing with all his say. Right on the front seat was Hog Garman, But who in the deuce is he harmin ' ? With blather and bluff He sure was the stuff. But his big noise was far from alarmin ' . There once came a terrible racket — ' Twas the imps clearing out for Bald Sackett; He terrorized them With his sickening grin. And Satan was envious to lack him. If you ' re sure that you are feeling all right, We ' ll go in and see Cocky Albright; He puts paint on his cheeks. Wets his lips when he speaks. And advises us all to do right. .lust a word of Cock Wiley the Fair, Who is eternally laying some snare; And you ' re surely a goner If in the right-hand corner He finds that your name isn ' t there. To be sure that this list doesn ' t grow We ' ll plant here Oyster Munro, For he ' d sure put the jinks On a chain of golf links. And he ' s quite oratorically slow. TRANSITION. He comes to us chock full of wisdom, With brilliancy rivaling the sun; He will make them all sit up and notice That he knows how the trick should be done. He is full of his high school traditions. And he reels off his yarns, tho absurd, Not once respecting our wishes That his kind should be seen and not heard. The second year sees him quite different; The bathtub has had its effect; The snipe hunt, the tank scrap, Mike Golden, Have imbued him w ith greater respect. He acknowledges now his transgressions. And admits his diminutive brain. But he works on the freshman with vigor. Till the poor runt is almost insane. The .Junior, with headgear imposing, Is now making good, it would seem; He is rated a jolly good fellow. And deserves our respect and esteem. He goes in tor college athletics- Takes part in all that ' s well meant; We like so well, so ' tis whispered. He ' s scheduled for class president. The corduroys tell the whole story— Of the battles, the victories, defeats. They tell of the tour years ' struggle — Of the tasted bitters and sweets. They proclaim to the three lower classes That here is one of the few. Here ' s a toast to the wearers of corduroys— To the Seniors of old PURDUE. QIC III THB KP Politicians IIQ The first politician of which there is any authentic recorl was tlie snake in the Garden of Eden, and. as he was such a good one, all the latter day members of the sect have tried to follow in his footsteps. As the world has grown older and wiser there has been a great many new wrinkles introduced into the repertoire of the candidates, but they all have as a fondant the one underlying prin- ciple. In order that one be classed as a politician he must be affili- ated with one of the parties, he must cast his lot with Re.ludli- cians, the Demonorats, the Long Whiskers. or the Anar- chists. He must always be with the progressive element, and when the occasion demands he must stand ready to repudiate the party anil go over with the oijposition at a moment ' s notice. To be suc- cessful he must be a stand-patter, and not an insurgent, altho it is allowable that he be a second or third termer if he get away with it. He must seek the nomination and not let the nomination seek the man ; he must believe in reciprocity, when it is to his advantage, and must always stay with the administration, whether it be his or some- body else ' s. If he be more than a First INIate he can think for him- self, once in a while, but if he is only a deck-hand his only chance of Heaven and Salvation lies in strict and total subservience to the machine and the man higher up. It is no more than justice to those hard workers for the party that they be given credit for their faithful service, and are hereby slated.

I S IB Mechanics Burning Uil Clerk: Call the first witness. Bailiff: Mr. Everett Richard Harrell, step to the witness box. Attorney tor the Plaintiff: Q. What is your name? A. Everett Richard Harrell. Q. Are you acquainted with the prisoners? A. I met them, — once. That was enough for me. Q. You evidently do not have a very good opinion of the prisoners. Will you give the reasons for your dislike? A. Well, I decided that Schutt, Mechanics and Chemistry didn ' t give a reaction agreeing with the laws of least work, so I decided to take Science. Q. Does the present Science course agree with the laws of least work? A. It does. With the e:;ception of the Chemical side and that takes IC hours a week. Q. Then, is it your opinion that Mechanics is unnecessary for an Engi- neer ' s education? A. Yes, judging from the way the Ag. and Science departments gain each year, due to the slaughter of Dukes and his horde. Attorney: That is all. Judge: The attorney for the defense may now question the witness. Attorney for Defense: Your honor, we feel that it would be too much justice to the lu ' iscners to question a witness who has ever listened to the rantings of the anarchist Eyre, and we therefore excuse Mr. Harrell. Clerk: Call the next witness. Bailiff: Herbert Augustus Sebald, step up nearer the bar. Attorney for Defense: Q. What is your name? Herbert Augustus Sebald, — commonly known as Si. What was the extent of your acquaintance with McKanix? Just long enough to find out 1 didn ' t like Applied. Who was your instructor in this subject? Slim Shutt. Does he know Applied? Yes, but he wouldn ' t introduce Harrell and 1. so we got sore and quit. What is your opinion of the teachings of our clients? A meaningless conglomeration of wcrds, with less sense to them than Daddy Elias ' Blue Book work. 3SC Attorney: Witness is excused. Judge: The prosecution may now question the witness. Attorney for Plaintiff: Q. What is your opinion regarding the relation of Mechanics to Athletics? A. I couldn ' t see how the application of the laws of impulse and mo- mentum will decide whether you can throw a ball down to second in time to put a fellow out when he is already on the bag, so I quit and took Science with Harrell. We found out how the Monk can do physical culture work in class, anyway. Q. What are his exercises like? A. I tried some of them in my room once and was lame for a week. Attorney: The witness is excused. Bailiff: Mr. A. Draughtsman Du Bois. Attorney for Defense: Q. Are you in favor of letting Mechanics interfere with the teaching of Electrical Railway as outlined by Slats Harding? A. Well, — Let, — me — see — er — er — err — (many grunts and groans). Q. Well, do you, or don ' t you? A. (Jumps and shouts) O, yes, sir! Q. During your sojourn at Cornell did you hob-nob with the late Church? A. Well, some. He loaned me a book and I learned all about Electrical Railways and that a car g oes faster down hill than up; also that the torque at one foot radius, — Attorney for Plaintiff objects: I object. Torque at one foot radius has nothing to do with Cantilever with constraint as applied to a bridge portal. Judge: Objection sustained. Stenographer, strike out the evidence. Attorney for Plaintiff: Q. Mr. A. Draughtsman Du Bois, I understand you are a good fellow, but that you get balled up in class. Is this true, and can you trace the cause of this to any intimate relations with McKanix? A. Now, that you ask it that way I will admit that my thoughts get be- fuddled at times and that I never could see what in the devil the Maximum Shear in a beam had to do with the I2R loss in a gen- erator. excused. Mr. Tubby Lawrence. 31 of the Juniors flunk this R. Mi for Defense: Q. Mr. Tubby Lawrence, what is ycur A. I teach the subject of Mechanics. Q. Do you think it is true that fifty ijer subject? A. Yea. verily. I fear it is true, but it ' s not my fault, as can testify. Attorney for Defense: If there were more men like you and Tommy Eyre. I wcukln ' t have any job. Attorney for Plaintiff: Q. What is your opinion of McKanix and Hy Draulics? A. As to Hydraulics, I think it is the invention of hell itself, but as 1 have to eat three times a day, I must decline to state my opinion of Mechanics. Attorney for Defense: I object. Personal opinion should have no place in this trial and be- sides Grieve has to but he eats for two. Judge: Objection sustained. Stenographer, strike out the evidence. Clerk: Call the ne.xt witness. BailifT: Mr. Bab Stingle, step into the witness box. Attorney for Plaintiff: Q, Are you acquainted with the prisoners? A. Only through hearing Gilbert Harr cuss.— I mean discuss,— him down at Ray ' s. Q. Has Dean Skinner any right to impose upon the sons of rest to the extent of requesting miniature theses weekly? A. Don ' t know whether he has a right to do it, but he hangs one on us every week just the same. Q. What is Agronomy 14? A. It ' s a mechanical drawing of a theoretical hog pen that Bill Xye dreams of over night. Attorney for the Plaintiff excuses the witness. Attorney for Defense: Q. How many kinds of Agronomy are there? A. Well, there ' s Soils. Field Crops, Ag Chemistry, Ag Botany, Science and Art of Agriculture, Drawing. Farm Mechanics, Farm Buildings and. — Attorney for Plaintiff: I object to this man ' s evidence as being irrevelant to this case in ques- tion. Your Honor. Judge; Objection over-ruled. It is the decision of the court that Farm .Me- chanics is a relative of the prisoners now under judgment and therefore the question is proper. Attorney for Defense: Q. Has Bill Nye any right to propound the theories of Farm Mechanics to the innocent Ags when he has secured his far reaching knowledge of engines, in which the combustion takes place on the inside, from sundry catalogues and farm magazines? A. Don ' t know about that. Sir, but I do know he has a hell of a time trying to prevent Conrad slipping the spark ahead when he is crank- ing the engine. Attorney for Defense: The witness is excused. Court: Bailiff, call Tommy Eyre. We would have his testimony on this mo- mentus subject. Bailiff: We ' ve already called him everything I can think of. Judge: Then announce the advent of the Gay Morning Glories and see what effect that will have. Bailiff: (in loud voice) Gay Morning Glories. Gay Morning Glories. Gay Morning Glories. Witness climbs down to the bailiff and is escoited to the witness box Attorney for the Defense: Q. So you are the notorious Tcmmy Eyre, are you? A. Yes, sir. Q. Now just what is your opinion as regards the principles and morals of these defendants, Mac and Hy ? . . Well. I must confess that I think they are both culprits capable of any deed however dark: since the members of my aeroplane failed in shear, I have no faith in Mac. Q. What are your politics? A. 1 am an Anarchist. Q. What are your principles regarding this form of government? A. Well. I thought that I ' d form a band of loyal anarchists and break up Toot ' s Ferry ' s Book Tn;st. but they all got scared out and turneJ Socialists. . ttorney: We excuse the witness. Attorney for Plaintiff: Q. What is your opinion regarding the use of telephones in opera houses? A. I consider them a detriment to all those striving to see the bright and shining way. Attorney for Plaintiff; We excuse the witness, as we feel that his presence is detrimental to the unsullied characters of o ir jurors. Bai EXAMINATION OF THE Jl ' RY IV convened.

So you are pretty strong at collecting, are you? A. Well, yes, I guess so. Q. Did you ever succeed in collecting anything from a Mechanic A. I should say not.

He never gave any one a square deal. Did you enjoy your second term as a student of Mechanics? Oh, it wasn ' t bad. I had it under Tommy Eyre. Don ' t you think it did you any good? The only ones that get any good out of Mechanics are the ] all they get is a small salary. You are a prejudiced pessin Officer, he ' s in again!

What do you know about Mechanics and Hydraulics? A. I have met both of them and they are both fall guys. I cannot un- derstand how any intelligent student could hold anything against them, for their peaceable and docile dispositions certainly made a hit with me. I expect to hold them as lifelong friends. Attorney : We accept the juror. Attorney for Plaintiff: Q. Where do you live? A. East Lafayette. Q. Do you belong to the Purdue Walking Club? A.
