FOREWORD Urged by the success ef the first Reed Grian and the desire for another such record of the schoolyear, the second an- nual Reed Griffin is offered by the staff of editors. I It is hoped that it will be the source of much pleasure to those whom it concerns. The never failing efforts of James Hamil- ton, business and photographic editor, have again helped to make the book pos- sible, and Arthur House as an alumnus has contributed to the art work. The editors are grateful to those Portland business men whose advertisements have helped pay for the book, and they thank not only those students who have con- tributed, but everyone who has enthusi- astically backed the Griflin.

Smiled on by fair hills, bounded by picturesque streams and scenic wood, our landscape is a veritable temple of natural beauties. Indeed, so susceptible are some to the enticements of the campus that they remain around the campus year after year, unable to tear themselves away from scenes so captivating. Like the fabled HIsle of Lotus Eaters, one can while away the hours enjoying the environment, careless alike of oral or thesis. I T has always been a Perhaps you have never experienced the pleasurable sensation of sauntering through our fair grounds. But a few paces will take you to a ravine rich in WOodland beauty and where, perhaps, you will find some romantic pair strolling dreamily along the lakeside path or some embryonic biologist intent on his prey. On the limpid surface before you the water fowl paddles, while squatted on a rock amid the tall rushes you may see some frog lazily blinking his golden eyes. Overhead you hear the monotonous drone of an aeroplane and now and then the meadow larkis brief song, but that is all. You breathe the fragrant air and rejoice that so close to the busy thorofares Nature is still to be enjoyed, for you have but to step out of the fringe of trees and look down on the bustling city, itself. Perhaps, you may like golf. If so there is a course stretching out invitingly before you. Now glance at the old rickety bridge. Time has clothed it with romance. To appreciate the spot you must have night with the great branches shimmering in the water while the moon rides along in the depths of the lake. Turn your steps towards the commons. The first to attract your eye is the Anna Mann Cottage, a recent addition to the campus and a specimen of archi- tecture famed for its taste and charming simplicity. It is here that persons of note are made welcome and affairs of great moment are threshed out. 3 Near by is the dormitory which fascin- ates all who see it by its majesty and beauty. One can never quite exhaust the architectural treasures ensconced in the walls of this medieval structure. The gro- : tesque figures have now seen some rivals taking their position on conspicuous parts V of the building. At night you can see the owl, lone and silent, content to blink his great eyes at you through the darkness. A little further on and you encounter the moon, which never fails in storm and in peace, to send out a cheering gleam. Tra- Y dition is at work in these house emblems and it will not be long before other sym- bols equally strange will join the owl, moon and score of gargoyles which so enrich the charm of the campus. But no one should leave the grounds un-. til they have seen one of our wonderful sun- sets. If the weather permits, which is not often, you will witness as rare a gorgeous display of color combinations as will ever be your good fortune to enjoy anywhere on the globe. Let the eye appreciate what the pen cannot describe. Certainly, the poet's fairest Vision could not be more sublime. Night does not rob our campus of any of its splendors. It only brings others to take the place of those that day takes away. Strange to say, too few are as yet aware of the rare opportunities for pleasure await' ing the golf fiend, racquet wielder and pleasure seeker amid the environs of Reed College. 161' on and you emu ch never fails in slog and out: a cheeringglz : work in these how: not be long beloreo: y' strange will jointhea: if gargoyles whichsoz. le campus.

Q5 w n w w; w 'JFaculty B it sports social events, drama, or Chorus, there is no distinction at B Reed between faculty and students. In all these activities there is a friendly rivalry or a hearty cooperation. This 1s not tosay that the 53 faculty is not respected or looked Up to; the students T681126 that in an 692 intellectual sense the faculty are their advisors and they take full advantage of their opportunities to confer with their instructors. There being but 10 students to every instructor, each student can receive all the attent1on he wishes. In every activity the faculty have won honors the past year. In sports an active part was taken in handball, track, basketball, and baseball. Mr. Gray and Mr. Turner defeated all corners in the handball doubles tournament, thereby w1nning the silver cup offered. Mr. Clark and Mr. Turner brought the faculty first place in I-Iexatholon by winning 4 firsts between them. The basketball and baseball teams made a game stand against their more youthful Opponents. The Chorus boasts as members Mr. F. L. Griffin, Mr. Clark, Mr. Gray, and IVIr. L. E. Griffin, while Mr. Gray, Mr. Bechtold, and Miss Bacon coached dramatics. Reed last fall started the school year with a majority of new instructors. She has made good her boast that she had the strongest faculty in her history. Glancing down the list of new instructors, we can see none that has failed to make good. The new instructors consisted of Mr. G. L. Koehn, Mr. G. W. Clark, Dr. T. W. Baldwin, Mr. I. Maizlish, Mr. E. C. Bechtold, Dr. G. C. Basset, Dr. L. E. Griffin, Mr. H. S. Turner, Dr. G. Rebec, Mr. C. Akerman, Dr. R. K. Strong, Mr. Eddy, Mr. Andrus, Miss R. Crellin,IVIiss I. P. Baughrnan, Miss j. Short, and Miss E. S. Heilrnan. Some of these crossed the continent, and all left good positions to come to Reed because of sympathy with Reed ideals. Reed has been benefited by contact with them. In point of service, Dr. F. L. Griffin is the oldest rnember of the Reed faculty, having been with us since the founding of the school. Dr. A. A. Knowlton came to Reed in 1915, while Miss S. E. Bacon joined the faculty in 1916. In 1917 Mr. C. H. Gray was added to the faculty, and in the following year, Miss R. B. Compton and Mr. C. McKinley. In 1919 Miss B. K. Young and Mr. M. C. Riddle came to Reed. That Reed has been benefitted by their influence goes without saying- EspeCIally is this true of Mr. Grifhn and of Mr. Knowlton, who administered Reed in the absence of a President. One of the new faculty organizations on the campus this year is the Four- F athers Club, composed of HDaddiesii Strong, Koehn, Gray, and Clark. Dr. Strong was the first member, a girl I-Ielen Margaret, being born on November 15, 1920. As a result of the birth of Anne Koehn, on january 8, 1921, her papa nOW indulges 1n nlghtly debates, HDaddyIl Gray joined the Club on March 29, when a 5919, McGregor, was born. The quartette was completed on April 13, when Mr- Clark was made a proud father by the birth of a daughter, Virginia. 8 -4. . .

Reed has been 813 N 1012.8 Senior $lass Characterized by athletic defeats, social fox passes and general inertia, the Class of 1921 entered upon its career as inauspiciously as Frosh classes generally do. To be specific, the Freshmen way back in 717 were defeated in basketball, couldrft play baseball, lost the womenis track meet, and when it won in soccer was cited for accident insurance. It lost the Oregon City relay race by several miles, and its resistance in the tug-of-war was remarkable for its brevity. T0 expatiate upon the frosh social boners, the Halloween party was accentuated by a keg of dynamic cider somewhat remote from the apple, the faculty was omitted when invitations were passed out, and this, its second party, was beautifully appointed and excellently executed and attended by no one. A promising beginning, Year Two, was cut short by a Flock of bacilli which quarantined a hundred women and several hundred SA. T. C. boys on the local eighty-six. Class distinctions ceased, and everyone drilled, knit, ate, ouijaed and turned their lights out at 10:00. Following the armistice, despite desperate efforts to restore pre-war conditions, the semester was the longest and most hectic in college history. There was a movie in which Consuelo starred, and a tug-Of-war which was the first sign of life from an athletic standpoint. The class pulled the frosh through the lake to the sur- prise of everyone, and closed its second year, with an exodus of frosh furniture on a rainy night. v The class helped the juniors win in football, snatched the basket- ball championship unassisted, and lost in chess only to underclassmen and others. ,. They wore caps and gowns to chapel, and passed out in a blaze of glory, leaving the college where they had found it, iiabout. three miles from the center of the city on the east side of the Willam- ette river, bordered on the west by Crystal Springs Lake and the municipal golf links and on the north by a ravine? i k s 9 ,0 f A a : w- s- 't-wd awww'o ham manta oysv. .9; 55 mal fox passes and gay s career as inauSpicioiii 1c, the Freshmenwaii; ln't play baseballlisi: oecer was cited for acct: race by several miles; irkable for its brevity the Halloween party: somewhat remote from ations were passedout,z aPPOirlted and excellt 'as cut short by aloci :n and several hundredl, ss distinctions ceasef turned their lightsow jesperate effo rts t0 W bal yXZ... 1.920 EUGENE VINCENT This learned person is the president of the Senior Class-also a. prize cootie hunter, and aspirant for the title role in Aphrodite. When he isn't busy juggling six subjects or quoting philosophy from Perry of Harvard, he slices up the turf with a mashie and skips the holes that require drives across the lake. His forensic ability on the middle ground at the U. of W. landed him on the Student Council here; he says he's majoring in Economics. He is papa of the Senior Statements, that scandalous document; before he was understudy as a lady-killer. As a Puritan he is a victim of repression psychoses. ETHEL COOPER Wherever the debate rages at. its highest there you will fmd this representative of Reed College's forensic attainments. Nor are these the extent of her endowments. She is regarded about the campus as the authority on all matters pertain- ing to social deportment. Her queenly dignity has often held her companions in awe, yet it is said that she is really quite tolerant with the blunders of the world and readily puts her audience at ease. JACOB HOLZMAN Jake has demonstrated to the world that he is of more than ordinary intelligence by making the customary four years course in three. On the ball room floor he fascinates all by his Vernon Castle-like movements. He is, likewise, an adept at checkers, defeating all comers with great relish. XVhen not thus engaged you will fmd this prospective luminary intent on some prey in the lab. XVateh for him in UVVho's XVho. RUTH ELIOT A representative of a distinguished American line who has upheld the family tradition. She Was the amazement of her class in the sublime in- difference with which she faced the oral examiners and the consummate ease with which she re: sponded to all interrogations. How she has mastered so many tomes and yet never taken on the pallor of the book-worm is likewise an enigma. The cheery smile of Ruth will be missed on the campus. WILLIAM B. STEWART Blair has only been with us for a year, but we have learned to regard him as one of us. His hobby is economy but he does not confine himself to that as his acquaintances can testify. Before coming to Reed he was noted as a woman hater but the fair environment has completely revolutionized him. Stew plays tennis, but it is not as a racquet weilder that his fame will live. His chief Virtue is consistency, which he demonstrates by pulling down a hundred in econ. every week. EMMA jo STEWART Emma Jo is another Senior who has proved that she could daydodge gracefully for 3 h years. Now, technically lodged in House D, she is at home with her family of rodents in the psyCh lab. She feels the need of a psychological atmosphere while performing the biological experiment of administering thyroid to innocent pink eyed rats recently imported from southern climes. ' . This is the only remaining trait of her BOlShCVlSth mental makeup which she portrayed in her coiffure of last year. WILLIAM B.

GRETCHEN SMITH The class of '21 rejoiced when Gretch changed her mind and decided to cast her lot with us. We scarcely know where to start to point out the accomplishments of this little lady. She is a basketball player, a runner, a marvel on ap- paratus, a dancer who is rushed on every sidea in brief, she is a genius. Her fame extended even beyond the limits of the institution when she was announced in a local paper as the proud owner of an Essex. We understand Miss Smith has lofty ambitions but we are seriously inclined to think her rare physical attractions will prevent their realization. HOMER SIBLEY Hail King, we neophites salute you! You who have long held sway over the commutersa awarded the imperial garter by common consent-- and sustained in office by lack of opposition. Sib. has made himself famous through his ability as a conversationalist. If asked, ulsnit it a nice dance? he will answer, UOf course, it is a nice dance. Isn't it a nice dance? and at times he regales his gentleman friends with risque stories from abroad. But it is as a college athlete that he exceeds all fond hopes--he held the handball championship for forty-eight hours, and has hOpes of repeating the feat in chess. The last antic of his genial humor and undaunted cynicism is this Griffin. It is a motto of our affluent Omar thata Uthe only way to overcome temptation is to yield to it. HENRI ETTA BETTINGER For four years Henrietta has majored in French. As a Daydodger of note, she has also disproved all the old arguments against Daydodging by taking part in every festivity on the campus. As chairman of endless dance committees and the author and perpetrator of a decorative scheme for a record-breaking Prom, she has demonstrated her executive and inventive ability. This year she has divided her time pretty carefully between the young girl in French drama since 1850 and her freshmen friends. sax :0RS7 . t n Wyma .u KATHERINE H. KERR The busiest, brightest person on the campus famed for her bright smile and just ways. She: has held offlces in the Drama and Biology clubs. In her Junior year she was a delegate to Des Nioines and secretary Of the Student Council. In her Senior year she was president of the Women of the Dormitory and Vice-president of the Student Body. She has written a thesis on Salamander's tails and is the flrst daughter of a trustee to graduate. r, , MW WM MARY WHITE The most Vivid personality on the campus. She has a ready smile, is a clever talker and a spit-flre when aroused. She has sung alto in the chorus, been an active member of the A. R. A. and a delegate to the student convention at Des Moines. In her Senior year she was a member of the council, wrote a thesis on Wm. Kemp of the Shakespearian Company and was one of the flrst strollers to announce the arrival of spring. Every- one knows Mary. ELIZABETH PEAT Beth has hair that curls eoaxingly around a little flnger, eyes that twinkle, a laugh like the call of spring, and the charm of fine manners. She is noted for her proficiency as a physical ed in- structor and for her ability to keep little boys interested in horrid old studies. She owes her perfection, in these lines, she says, to a little observation, much practise, and the ability to ward off all irrelevancies. The reader is advised to watch the Y.

LAURA PAYTON, Laura Payton is the only member of the Senior class who can lay claim to that shade of hair described as Titian. She possesses morever the name of being an all-around sport in athletics no less than in social relations with her college acquaintances She has successfully mastered the art of day- dodging and since February is taking life easy in House A. Her reliability and athletic prowess give her clear title to a physicaled assistantship, which includes among other things the teaching of tennis to amateurs and the refereeing of Scap- poose basketball games. GERTRUDE HUNGATE HODSON, MARY WHITE The most vivid personalise; has a ready smile, is a CICX'QHLE when aroused. She has sing: been an active mem refit: delegate to the student i: Moines.

Gertrude started the New Year right by leaving the group of spinsters in House C and joining herself to a single mane-Iwr. Francis Hodgson of Pullman. That charming, smile which caught her a husband and those wonderful capabilities which made her an R. A. during the war are to be found at work from morn till night on Reed campus. Mrs. Hodgson is a pillar in the lab. and a post in the gym. She boldly asserts her prior right to all vacancies on the Pullman high school staff with a view to Oi making her home in XVashington. VYELIZABE'HI EMERY HALL, Another new corner from Boston, who writes scholarly papers in Biology and English.

Her iron rule has been .ifelti' in House D where she is president and guides the young in paths of righteousness. Jo tells us Off and on that she is undecided between taking a position next year and going on to school. We predict success in either case. ARTHUR MCLEAN Busiest man on the campus. Edison has the sleeping sickness compared to Art. Mac has given himself unstintingly to every worthy cause. Carrying six subjects was Mac's business, earning his living an avocation, and lending a trained hand to student activities his recreation He was ever the personification of that term, intellectual enthusiasm.

Her thesis research has revealed the fact that the psychology and economics of the lumber industry are closely con- nected. In her spare time she devotes herself to music in which art she is very proflcient. lRVIN MARTIN GOODMAN Those who have heard this political aspirant lecture tell us that they are reminded very much of that historical personage of the eighteenth centuryaRousseau. His friends believe that he will lead some new thought movement that will revolutionize the world.

She is another of those people who wield the whistle in the gym. just to look at her you would be much more likely to think she was a Erosh than a Senior. In fact it's quite embarrass- mg at times, isn't it, Friede? But then that's nothing. Look at some of the rest of us. EVERETT ROBINSON Robbie, wide known as math. shark, graduates with a consistent record of scholarship, and a dis- tinet leaning, toward the central plank in the platform of the Bachelor clubs platform. Rob- bie has pursued the baffling quest with little regard for distracting by-paths. When in college, he rode a motorcycle, and played basketball and a saxophone, according to ths Whohs biography of the noted mathematician. TOM BROCKWAY Upon sunny days we often see perched upon his balcony and chortling to the world, the most versatile man in our college. He has responsibili- ties ranging from Student Body President to offlcial cyclist of our spinsters, and manages in his spare time to preach sermons about the Religious College Student at the Unitarian Church. Parmelee may be musical but you could never guess it from his serenades upon the Chinese Swine Horn. In working out his thesis T. B. fmds that both he and Shelley turned a deaf ear to Plato. EDITH MATTHEWS Edith, better known to the cafeteria line by her pet name of Bevo, has added a jazzy note to many college festivities. Her knowledge of the latest song hits and her ability to make them heard has made her invaluable at dances. Beside her efforts in that line, she has written a thesis on the history of Spanish literature which may SCFVC as text-book for endless generations of students. This year she has assisted Henrietta in the edu- cation of the lower classes. ' W as Elli 4 BROCKWAY Don sunny days we oftcnseex: lcony and chortling to the i: rsatile man in our college.

Nevertheless, she has joined in with the spirit of her adopted class without bemoaning the good old days, and made herself a necessary part of this year's affairs. Theoretically a psych. major, her thesis has been a combination of sociology and economics as well. Still, she has dragged many an unsuspecting friend into the psych. lab. and forced an un- desirable test upon him. She has a sense of humor and a sympathetic friendliness which have made her universally adoredl DOROTHY DICK Dorothy is probably one of our best known Co-eds on the campus. She is the lady to take your troubles to, if you have a new invention to ad- vertise, as she knows all about the ad business. In past years, through her clever work, she has amassed so many credits, that this year she has been able to play Frosh again as we all would like to do. She is also known as a writer of limerieks, and initiator of skating parties. HOWARD MCGOWAN Mac will forever bafHe the historian. His tem- pestuous nature has made him the romanticist of the campus, and an exploit a day was ever hi5 minimum. Resourceful in argument, Mac has expounded the truth against all comers, and right or wrong, he never gives up the ship. His knowl- edge of women's wiles has ever been a source of wonder to his male companions and his insight into the feminine character a cause for consterna- tion among the ladies. 'As president of House F he was an active executive, but he failed as a worm-hunter. Mac was Ever-Ready when it came to a scrap, in class or out. MARIE UTLEY Marie is a recent arrival, having come to Reed only this year. She is a math major and passes her spare time juggling ellipses, hyperbolas and parabolas in an attempt to make them behave. We donlt know her past, but we judge that it has been as brilliant as the future which we predict for her. LEITH JOHNSTON Leith occasionally donned the traditional horn- rimmed in his senior year, but he didn't loqk scholarly even then. Leith has been Reeds premier chauffeur and auto mechanic for four years, and as a social light he has shone brightly or flickered as the mood willed.

Many a painful pause in classes have been filled in by his ready solutions to academic perplexities. MURIEL JOY NICHOLS This delightful bit of femininity is famed as a gloom killer. I f anyone is suffering from the pangs of melancholia we cannot do better than recommend them to Muriel. When not strolling about the green listening to the songs of the birds and to the romantic words of a handsome youth not far distant, you will probably fmd her pouring forth lyrics, sonnets, ballads and epics. Indeed, she loves the Classics of the past not less than the present. Withal, she certainly refutes the old idea that brillianey is confined to the opposite sex. '2' CLARENCE HOGAN One of our economists who promises to make his Alma Mater famous. That he has been able to distinguish himself socially and seholastieally to. such an extent has been the amazement of his friends and no small astonishment to his pro- fessors. Once regarded as a Benedict the world woke up in his Senior year to discover their very grave error. Much of the typographical success of the Quest is said to have been attributed to this brilliant youth. ski s$THE GRIPF'I MARJORIE jEWETT THOMPSON A member of the HSororityf' famous for her linguistic talents and a lover of the rural beauties of the campus.

There are twelve people in the country who under- stand Einstein, among whom are Walter. He is especially interested in good looking women.

Next to his interest in art Walter prefers the classic game of tennis, being one of the most formidable raequet wielders the college has ever seen. How he has resisted the wiles of the opposite sex has been a source of mystery to his friends although we have a hunch that uHess. works on the outside. CONSUELO McMILLAN uCon is our campus Sarah Bernhardt. She has not only performed on the legitimate stage, but is also a movie star, having played the lead in the Reed production The Reconstruction of Mary.

In the Field of economic Cndeavor one may rest assured that the name Clifford Zollinger will always be associated with Cmciency.

Born in the stormy days Of the war, the class has in time since traversed n0 paved highway. As Uncle Sarnis war babies, the juniors worked hard as soldiers and nurses, only to have their work all go for naught with the signing of the Armistice. In the days that followed, they twice felt the chilly slime of Crystal Springs Lake due to the superior pulling power of the classes before and after. As infants, they were forced to seek their beds on the lawn one night; and it was only with the most stubborn resistance that the ordeal of green caps was averted. This year, the class returned to find its membership shattered from 86 to 38, and from the largest Sophomore Class in the history of the college, it became the smallest 0n the campus. Last March, the juniors were doomed to further disappointment with the loss by a few inches of the Oregon City Relay, which they had conquered without difficulty as Freshmen and Sophomores. But the juniors place much emphasis on the proverb: HHard knocks make the man.H In the success of Reed Day, which they inaugurated to replace Junior Week End, they feel justly proud. Their Victory in the inter-class track meet proved their superior speed and agility. The athletic, social, and literary activities of the class are indicated by the fact that it lists among its members the captains of this years and next years football teams, captain of the track squad, editor, news-editor, and business manager of the Quest, president of the A. R. A., director of the chorus, four all-star football men, a debater, and the business-manager of The Griffin. Robert Chamberlain and james Hamilton headed the class during its Freshman and Sophomore years, while William Stone was prexy during the present year until his election to the editorship of the Quest, when he resigned. The present officers are : J ames Gantenbein, President; Elizabeth Gore, Vice-President; Sibyl Lindell, Secretary- Treasurer; and Harold Robinson, Sergeant-at-Arms. 5 3: 3:28;... m SEW 93 8:2. mm? f 5353.. m Em? ma :3; a 28m; a Egg. 8 8 ma 5 3g? gnaw mogoaoim Urn 35:2 8;ng w 8 32:2 gmmwg v : Ems: wWoswmm mwa momgag 5a 03 gm Eggg a om ?8 Ex E 39 3 g g: 0PHOMORE8 at college, have occasion to rejoice over the arrival of Dr. Scholz. The greater part of their two years spent at Reed g has been during the long interim between presidents. The CW members were privileged to know Dr. Foster for only a few months in their early Freshman days. The class of 1923 started after the close of the war with their interests and enthusiasms for the things of peace. It is interesting to note that a large proportion of this group are politics, history, economics and sociology majors, while the premedics and science majors include more than a fourth of the class. When it comes to opinions on student government, and partici- pation in campus activities, the Sophomores are simply irrepressible. i Rumor has it that the next constitutional amendment will place a i y time limit for discussion by classes in student body meetings, because l there is such a superabundance of budding and full blown orators in the Sophomore class. T THE SOPHOMORES, perhaps- more than any other group With the greatest number of members of any Class the Sophomores have contributed their ilpepH and accepted responsibility in every phase of college life. They have also made a sincere effort to know all the members of their own class by holding extra class gatherings, among which was a very successful hike and roller skating party. The reception to the Freshmen at the beginning of the year, where an attempt was made to furnish amusements that all might enjoy, typifies the democratic spirit of the Sophomore class. The Class officers are: Lewis jones, President; Frances Kling, Vice-President; Florence Craven, Secretary; William Miller, Treas- urer; Anton Lindstrom, Sergeantaat-arms. 28 ix! RESHMEN ANY, no doubt, know the joys of living, but there are only m a few privileged ones who have been graced with the spirit s of fun which goes along with being a Freshman. ,The green Tiff? neophyte of first-year farne undoubtedly is in a class by g Mg himself as regards the enjoyment of ones existence. Of the traditional abuses, itis true, he receives his goodly share. He is kicked, and spanked, and taken advantage of in a variety of well known ways. He is shown his place in the social scale and is obliged to assume it under the persuading temperament of his insistent eldersa-betters, as it wereafor, indeed it were not expedient for the Frosh to seem as good as anyone else; rather is it preferable to him that he be most modest and retiring in the company of his patronizing fellows. He is, just as the lowly worm, infinitesimally insignificant, 3 even in his own small campus world. The Freshman sees his place j and he seeks it. 1'1 The aforesaid are characteristics of Freshmen in general. Now, what are the specific Virtues of the class of nineteen hundred and twenty-four? Indeed, each individual in this class is a shining light, a human nebula, illuminating the stagnant darkness which hereto- fore held Reed College in the depths of obscurity. Since the entry of this class, everything has taken a new lease on life. In the era of this class there came unto us a new president. Under the auspices of this-class novelties have sprung up. In the ranks of this class there are some of the most promising young Hwhite hopes that have ever set foot upon this campus. Under. the guardianship of this Class Reed Colleges traditions will be faithfully carried into the future. So, you sleepy-heads, open your eyes! Pinch yourselves! Be it known unto you the hidden possibilities that lie waiting in the ranks of this class, waiting to come into their own. The college is destined to thrive as never before, because the class of nineteen hundred and twenty-four is in your midst and is standing by ready to do or die for Reed 8 prosperity! 30 2. 90 .5 a E . . .8 $5 :20 7033,. 33m :9 3:33: .7 83 3:5 caocgaq . 3m 03.2302 0:3. 7 55. :m 8828 a 0..

Gertrude soon left for the seclusion of the dorm; and e in an exceedingly close election, May Borquist was acclaimed treasurer with Bess Steelsmith as iirunner-upf While the year was yet young, Howard conceived the brilliant idea of engineering a coup dietat and transforming the Republic into .i a monarchy. He performed this bold stroke and seated Homer Sibley on the throne. As a reward for his faithful services he gave himself the post of prime minister. Thus the Republic became the realm of Homer 1, the Wise. The retinue of King Homer contains many personages whose features would glorify the Hall of Fame. Homer himself is Editor of the Griffin and defies the world at handball. Then thereis jacob Weinstein, premier orator; Don Ramsdell, with those languishing eyes, Literary Editor of the Quest; Jack White, of the orange hair, tennis expert and track man; Clifford Zollinger, who gracefully yielded the glove to Sibley at handball; Howard Smyth, center on the football team who frightened opponents with his flghting seowlfi not to mention a host of other celebrities, including a bevy of beautiful girls who would send Zeigfleld 1nto raptures. The monarchytwill be left without a head next year due to the departure of Sibley for regions unknown, but Smyth expresses hope of finding an heir. 34 F course, theres no doubt about it, Daydodging is a great life.

ENO 0k A ptarsm' DAY m00NLvaaT , cucxoo, Looxmc DOWN, K y Plainly speaking, Dorm life isnit exactly what Sherman called war. Aside from an occasional water-bag bath, barber shop discord to lull you to slumber and a rumbling of ash cans to rouse you in the wee sma' hours, it is just the essence of T peace and tranquility, except perhaps for an occasional sand storm from the road- i way. Properly designated, the fiscal dorm day begins every morning at 7:13 A. M. and ends precisely at 7 :l3 A. M. on the following morning. The only occasion for such an early rising is breakfast which arrives at 7:15, but there is where the House 1-1 lazy-birds slip one over their fellow dormites for all they have to do is roll out of bed and down the stairs to breakfast while the poor farmers that live in the suburbs of Ladd Hall struggle from their beds at an unearthly hour to arrive in the commons with the morning meal. Lunch isnit so bad, because everybody gets a fair start and a strong finish. But dinner, with its white collars is the crowning Hfaux pas of the whole proceeding. L Dancing after every meal is the boast of House D and the young daughters of the Swan proceed thusly to settle their newly acquired content. Not so House F. The old owl may be a pretty quiet bird all day, but his Violent ash can exercise at night would bring grief to the healthiest swan. It seems that the time honored ' Spinster clan of House C has the watchful waiting policy. Every evening they gather timidly on their doorstep and iieockooH at the straying strollers in a half sympathetic manner. Houses A and B never make much noise on the campus, but were pretty sure that they indulge in a strenuous program of indoor sports. Poor old House H has the wrong idea altogether. They send a delegation out on theicampus to break the somberness of the evening with some harmonic selections. But they tell the sad tales themselves when they shoutfiW'e hit the notes like kangaroos? House G never makes much noise in public, but, ye dogs, when there alone. Four first class handball tournaments have been successfully staged on their third floor courts. We mustnit forget the regular staid old customs of dorm life such as campus strolling in the moonlight, eanoeing on Crystal Springs and fudge-making on rainy days. Most important is the mens nightly gab-fest in the kitchen about eleven O'clock where weighty matters of all kinds teven fried eggs and extra strong cocoa are disposed 00. We could talk and talk for pages about the charms of Dorm life, but sufficient is the evil unto the reader thereof, so we Chop. 37 W yXZx Odo 1,920 Tl'fouse 7A House A, that section of the dormitory monopolizing the View of Portland's western hillsides, is the abiding place of thirteen Co-eds and one of Reedhs most influential people-the hand that feeds us. In this group may be found representatives of all trades including biologists, physical educationists, artists, sociologists, literary geniuses, orchestras, dietitians and psychologists. House A with quiet dignity held in high esteem a constel- lation resembling a cat, had its own cat-call which terrified the campus into shrill superstition and enjoyed its own cat-song in its own quiet way.

For exactly seven reasons; Miss Bacon, Miss Compton, Miss Crellin, Barbara Elliott, Florence Holman, Frieda Krichesky and Helen Thorsen. We boast the best French teacher, the best Registrar, the best Librarian in this school, as well as the four Biggest Bums! House B has never before been occupied by undignified undergraduates; and it was really quite a shock to its staid inhabitants when four unruly underclassmen took up their quarters on the lower floor. Especially so, when it developed that these four were faithful devotees of the cause, HBe kind to animals, you are one yourself, Two dogs, a white kitten, a family of voracious rats and some pollywogs were the recipients of many kindly attentions. Only intimate friends of the house know of the existence of a most interesting Club, the B. B. B. B. which lavishly entertains its friends in a secret club-room. Though the by-word of the organization is secrecy, its generous members are willing to impart to the public at least a few things for which it stands: Buick; Bob; Bechtold; Bacon; Brothers; Bolsheoviks. 89 CXZ' 1,920 Tl'fouse Q: When the census taker came to House C this year he was astonished at its rowth. From being the smallest student house on the campus it has almost doubled its population. But increase in numbers has in no way diminished the spirit of jolly good-fellowship and fun fer which liouse C has always been noted. The endearing terms of chckoos and spinsters by which the House C girls are sometimes called merely signify that we are neither too serious-minded nor too frivolous. Student council members room with hashers, Seniors with Sophomores, the rich with the poor, the married with the unmarried. In only one way does House C lack the spice of life, variety. But whats in a name? This year the mater- nal roof of House C has sheltered three Certrudes, three Anns, two Opps, two Eliots, two Clarks, two Margarets, two Mabels, two Helens, and two Florences. Sometimes House C is musical, sometimes just noisy, but taking all in all, a spirit of harmony is most evident among all its members, There is nothing more moving than to hear the Cuckoo Song sung by the entire house.

A reception given by Mrs. Knowlton for the Freshmen 0n the 1st Saturday night in October served the double purpose of giving them a ripping good time and getting them acquainted on an extra-classroom basis with the faculty. The following Friday brought Campus Day, with an Obliging sun and an in- dustrious, collarless gang of students and faculty striving to beautify the campus. Lunch in the Commons was a riotous meal with humorous speeches by faculty members in reply to uproarious demands. At 3 o'clock work stopped and the rest of the day up to 11 oiclock was given to entertainments, including a foot- ball game, a combined dinner and stunt show, an operatic farce, and a big dance ' in the assembly hall, all of which succeeded in fading the Freshman green con- . siderably.

The Saturday following, the student body and faculty departed en masse for Forest Grove to witness the Reed-Pacific football game.

Members of the student council for 1920-21 were: Seniors, Student Body President, Tom Brockway, Eugene Vincent, Blair Stewart, Katherine Kerr and Mary Elizabeth XVhite; Juniors, Grace Linklater and William Stone; Sophomores; Arm Shepard and Forrest Forest; Freshmen, Rachel Cronquist arid Easton Rothwell.

Scholz says that history is made, not on the six days that man works, T but on the seventh day when he rests. That certainly is true of Reed College history, for on the seventh day a group of students gather to 8; 9 write the Quest, and as history is a record of the worlds happenings, S9 Mg so the Quest is a record of college happenings. The weekly gets its name from the old phrase, Comrades of the Questii used to designate Reed students I early in the career of the college. Each week all the scandal of the community, I all the events of the Vicinity, properly pruned and expanded, make their appearance in the little paper which appears on W ednesday noon. The Quest reporter is 1 renowned for the quantities of personal information he possesses, which makes no man feel entirely safe from his powers. Until the middle of this year, there was no general election for Quest editor, and he was half appointed, half-selected from possibilities about the college. Tom Brockway then decided that the Quest editorship was too much of a responsibility for a thesis-writing Senior, and so the charter was lost. This misfortune resulted in one of the most exciting campaigns of Reed history. A new regime, under Bill Stone as editor and Bill Scott as news-editor have made subsequent Quests as 7 interesting as any in the files. Hereafter the editor will be elected from the junior class, at mid-year, which will eliminate the necessity for losing future charters. , The Quest staff attacks its weekly job with amazing enthusiasm. Every 1 Sunday morning all its members gather in the little office off the chapel, laugh s over rumors, talk over the events of the week, and write the articles. The sound ,i of Mr. Becker, practicing for the next organ recital forms an effective background for the Clacking of typewriters, which is interrupted occasionally by loud bursts of laughter. Hj udas Priest, this is goodl'i quoths Mr. McGowan as he laboriously misspells out his latest Hfunny dopefi The work is efficiently systematized, so that each writer has his own special lob. Muriel Nichols spends most of the time when she is not assistant-editing in PFOdUCing master-piece headlines without reading the articles. Ellen Gantenbein and Verda McCallum, Bill Scott's assistants, write up social events and assemblies, and whenever he remembers to get up, Ted Steffen does menis athletics. Another CUb reporter, Alice Lathrop, produces a hundred and flfty words weekly about Women's sports. Nancy Gavin, scandal artist, assists Howard McGowan. Tho not an official member of the staff, Harold King makes a competent printers . devil, while Sam White holds down the mat of the office dog by boning at all hard i Jobs like word-counting and interviewing reluctant faculty. Other cub reporters ' are May Arnold, Virginia Westfall, Clinton Wrilson and Carol Cummings. Directly in line for future editor of the Quest stands Easton Rothwell, all around handy man and feature writer. H Altogether the Quest this year has presented a so COmmunistic efficiency which it has never shown before 1n a man management. lidarity of frontl' and a 11 the history of its one 51 Wmma HE Drama Club season of 1920-21 was one of accomplishment, and T while no effort was made to adhere to the original schedule of one per- K$5 formance a month, each Of the seven plays given was of a cons1stent1y high standard, and marked the work of the lclub well eut of the amateur w class. High grade direction, unexpected and exceptlonal talent, and a wide-spread and enthusiastic support by the student body, are largely responsible for the success of the year. The club was fortunate in having Mr. Bechtolds services as a director. Previous to his coming to Reed, Mr. Bechtold had had wide experiencein both callege and professional dramatics. His work in HA Marriage Proposal and in 1Hobsons Choicew was particularly effective, in both Of which plays results were achieved seldom equaled by college players. Miss Bacon in her direction of an act from the HYellow jacketH created an effect of oriental whimsy and splendor that was keenly appreciated. Mr. Grays experiment in producing Hln the Zoneai with a number of Freshman men unused to dramatic appearance once more showed his ability to mold new material into a highgrade group of players. Mr. Grays work in HRyland,H both acting and directing, was also effective. Out of the numbers of players that appeared this season, Consuelo McMillan, Arthur McLean, and Forrest Foster did strikingly good work that kept up their reputations gained in previous years. Among new members of the Club, the work of Margaret Westgate Harold King, Frances Barbey, Harry McCoy, and Howard Smyth assures continued high standard productions. Of the various groups at work particular mention must be made Of the cos- tumihg and properties groups, who were called upon for the utmost in resource- fulness this year. Officers of the club for the year were: president, Consuelo McMillan; Vice- president, Gladys Blaine; secretary, Julia Harrison; and treasurer, William Scott. The faculty dramatic committee included Miss Young, Mr. Bechtold and Mr. Gray.

CHORUS One of the most popular organizations on the campus is the Reed College Chorus, membership of which includes faculty and student alike. The position of director, which is always filled by a student, was held this year by Elizabeth Gore, a junior. Three most successful concerts were presented during the year, the first of which was the traditional Christmas concert, an event that is con- sidered as unique in the city and is one of the most attractive affairs of the calendar. The atmosphere of the holly-wreathed, candle-lighted chapel, with the singing 0 think it is not far distant, and in the meantime W5 4; ' r355 Mn mMRW I. .15rn5T 3 :3: .03? tggwiir 5M 5.5::th mV' 5 $rrp' of old beloved carols by the vested choir, leaves an indelible impression. Miss ggrrt'ww Goldie Peterson and Mr. J. Erwin Mutch as special soloists were greatly enjoyed. The Recital of Folk Songs and Traditional Melodies which was given early in April, likewise attracted a large and appreciative audience. Old favorites such as Men of Harlech, My Love is Like a Red, Red Rose and Old Black Joe won the hearts of all, while a group of Russian folk-songs arranged by Kurt Schindler aroused much interest. Miss Louise Huntley and Mr. Otto Wedemeyer were soloists on this occasion. I , The final concert, presented during Commencement Week, was a fltting climax to the years work. The beautiful HSpringtideH cantata by Rachmaninoff, with piano and organ accompaniment, formed the major part of the program. Mr. J. Erwin Mutch as baritone soloist, Miss Alice johnson at the piano and Miss Lucile Murton at the organ deserve much praise for their splendid work. Organ solos by Miss Murton added to the interest of the program. OLDS MEMORIAL ORGAN The Gothic chapel in the west end Of the Arts Building forms a rare and beaUtiful setting for the frich-toned Olds Memorial Organ which is the source of many mspirational chapel services. In addition to this daily opportunity for organ 1 music, monthly lecture-organ recitals are presented by Mr. Lucien E. Becker, F. A. G. 0. Planned to give a historical knowledge of periods Of music as well as 5 the characteristics of various composers, these recitals are of educational value. 54 '5 ent, was held thisya. :erts were presentedt; ;tmas concert, an em most attractiveafiaist idle-lighted chapel, it- eaves an indelibleii: special soloists wereg: trial Melodies which E :ciative audience. 0i; ted Rose and Old 3135. k-songs arranged bit , 975: w a:?.?' informal lectures on music appreciation given in the Anna Mann Cottage have provided enjoyable yet profitable evenings. The Portland Symphony Concerts as well as those of Visiting artists have been unusually well attended this year by college students. STUDENT ARTISTS Elizabeth Gore, chorus director, with her enthusiastic leadership, has put new life into the chorus work this year. She is a pianist of ability and her contributions to chapel services are always much appreciated, whether piano solos, or in piano and organ duets with Miss Murton. M. Lucile Murton has been organist and chorus accompanist for the past three years. Her carefully selected chapel programs, played with breadth of expression and well-chosen registration, are most worth while. The piano work of Earle G. Blew has been a great addition to musical activities of the college during the last year. Mr. Blew delights his hearers with his delicate touch and artistic interpretations. 55 1.920 A. R. A. No year since the war has seen the Amanda Reed Association as active as it has been during the year 1920-21. Every department has hroadened the scope of its works, and successfully carried on its campaigns. So dlverse and numerous have been the pursuits and endeavors that the chief executlve, Edith Turner: has nearly turned gray trying to keep track of the work being done by herlsubordlnates. The vice-president, Gertrude Opp, also chairman of the social committee, declares after her experience managing parties, that iilt isn t as s1mple to give a party as It looks? but simple or not her management was surpassingly successful. Some of the largest projects credited to the A. R. A. this year have been launched by Orpha Phelps as chairman of the social service department. Of these the distribution of Christmas baskets and the party for Industrial Girls were most notable. Carol Cummings most efficiently conducted the Bible-study group with the help of Mrs. Runyan, an alumna of Reed College. Elizabeth McKinley, chairman of the civic department, evolved a new plan for the administration of her responsibility: the HFireside Discussion Meetings, which will become a lasting institution. A hiking club was formed with Margaret Thomas as chairman. When the roll is called up yonder, Saint Paul will have a special air-express and a clear track reserved to transplant the Reed College Co-operative Store counter and cash-register into the iiHappy Abode. For the worldly existence of that institution is nothing but one kind Samaritanian deed after another. If it isn't supplying a new hair net for some luckless co-ed whose thoughtless dance partner has wrecked her last one its providing a square meal, to one of those hapless individuals whose alarm clock always beats him to breakfast Incidently, the Co-op. endures so much of Pluto brimstone on earth that the celestial Gate- Keeper will rush it to heavenly reiel ut of pure humanitarian principles. Under the astute generalship of Hobart Benson, the Co-op. has completed the eighth year of its existence with coffers overflowing and pennants flying. The iilnfant Industry, of 1913, which has progressed steadily thru two student genera- tions, reached the height of modernity during the past year with a live-Wirevad- vertising campaign and a stock of everything from tweezers to shoestrings, nOt to mention a 1930 model cash-register and a mountain of candy bars endowed with mystlc powers for inveigling stray nickels. 56 33:33.17 1 a 3,3113. l: m 31..er V691 ff :mnvw sciation 3W. ,madened the r.

Dr. Torrey, in his talk on cancers and tumors before the Biology Club, proved this dramatic state- ment by definitions. The early part Of the year the Club discussed the physiology of the blood as a tissue. The spleen as a ngaveyard in an incubator of red corpuscles caused a hot discussion. Students presented papers as foundations for informal considera- tions of such topics. Since vacation have been presented the latest developments in such problems as cancers and protein poisoning in talks by Dr. H. B. Torrey, and George Burget of U. of 0. Medical School, and Dr. E. T. Tucker of Portland and Mr. Grant of Oregon Hygiene Society and Mr. Riddle of Reed. Very welcome have been our new members, Dr. and Mrs. L. E. Griffin. The Club has enjoyed their home as its meeting place thruout the year. Dr. Griffin addressed the club and a number of Visitors upon his research work in the Philip- pines for the Carnegie Institute. These meetings were guided the flrst part of the year by Theodore Eliot, President, and Arthur McLean, Secretary. When the president was given op- portunity to work in the University of Kansas, Clinton Wilson was elected to succeed him. CHESS CLUB Chess is one of the most popular indoor sports on the campus. Those indulging in that line of activity are organized into the Reed College Chess Club, an exclusive society in that it excludes from membership all who have not been able to prove Wu themselves sufficiently skillful to defeat a member of the Club in a scheduled game. 0rd Among the many Opportunities offered by the Chess Club are that of competing in a grand tournament once a term and that Of bearing a title, the officers being 65 anWn as King, Queen, and Bishop, winners of the First and second places in the IlOumament as King's Castle, and Queens Castle, respectively, ex-Castles as Knights, and members in general as Pawns. Aspirants to membership should 5 f apply to the executive committee as soon as possible for a try-out game, so as to ants ; get an early date on the calendar and avoid the rush. For the education of those interested but unlearned in the art Of chess, there is a reserve shelf in the library devoted to literature on the subject. Although a knowledge of chess 1s not re- qUiFed for graduation, students will flnd it a very prohtable and delightful outlet for excess energy. It does not count for gym credit. 57 H3 GRIPF'I MCSbe Kimmie 5500K 473 UST where the Jimmy book ever got its nom de plume is a question that Wit: J some Senior might write a thesis on.

For undoubtedly the coming of our new Prexy was a super-Climax for a M4 b r ., successful year. Who could forget that epochal noon when Doe. Knowlton ruined ;? f H a perfectly good potato salad lunch by telling us that Reed had a new president innifi; due in about five weeks? No one, we say, no one! And breathes there a man with ... L - my soul so dead as to lose the mutual open-heartedness and friendship with which we m: m? L. met our new president when he took his place at the head of the faculty table for : the first time? Not one, we affirm, not one! There was no blasting of bells and ringing of trumpets when he reached the campus. He just slipped in one morning . while everybody was sleeping and had his carpets half laid before anybody dis- 1'- U l ' covered him. And there was a lot of Reed history made in the reception with which m z: '1 .--. we welcomed him and his little family to our midst. Yes, undoubtedly President time t? .; - Scholz is not only the crowning event of a year gone by, but a herald of a new and m . , rejuvenated Reed. , t Lulmfuz Either Cupid had such a volume of Reed business last year that he haSn't mag; recovered yet or Reed has found its place on the Minervian boycott list.

Sufhceth for Cupid. Behind the glaring array of trinkets and odds and ends and programs and such 9 ttttt ' like that are pinned, pasted, and tied on page after page of the Jimmie volume, 0 S theres a gripping tale. Tis the tale of a most successful year of parties, and debates and games and general good times. A little green star tells of the Soph reception when everybody got acquainted and re-acquainted in the game-pits and dance arena. Then theres a pink crepe flower that brings back the Daydodger party where we perambulated around in a corral of holly-hocks and ivy-strewn pickets. Say, don't you remember Halloween when the Canyonville nut asylum turned loose and raised everything but the Cider over in the Gym at the Frosh Harder Times Party? Then here's, 0h, horrors Of horrors, a scandal sheet that calls up fond tinklings of a rain-soaked torchlight parade to warm up Anna Mansion, and of an awful mixture of skeletons, niggers, and mad women that raged in the arts building. House H tried to slip one over on old Jupiter Pluvius by building snowdrifts around the fireplace, but we realized it was Christmas even if the music had a Hula-hula accent. Then theres a holly-bordered program of the Christmas Concert when Bettyls chorus earolled to our hearts content under the candles on the chapel stage. Hllm Captain Jinx of the Horse-Marines.H We didnlt mind being guinea pigs when it came to tripping the barn dance and munching popcorn balls at the Hick Party of' the Physical Ed majors.

Next thereis . $- sgme tVi igs 0f fir suggest a dreamy waltz under the moonbeams of the cat-haunted l; G. l. forest. Nobody ever suspected what hidden powers Reed co-eds possess until we toddled under the rainbowed serpentine at the XVomanls formal. 'And last, but by all means most therels the junior Prom. Even the rollicking parisher from up Woodstock way had to admit the blooming nooks and apple blossom bowers l of the quaint Old court seemed like some of the bible miracles in this modern day and age. Athletics? Sure, jimmy Books arenlt just social calendar and marriage license bureaus. Thereis scorecards that tell a grewsome tale of how the Upperclassmen cinched the football laurels after the Frosh held them to a 9-6 battle on Campus day, But, judas, remember the sloppy game the Fresh played the Sophs for second place? Only the score reveals the grim tragedy of Armistice day when some Presbyterian clergymen from Albany came up and preached a solemn sermon W1th a text called '33 t0 20H Pacific! A happy pilgrimage after the goose-egg 1 to be sure, but it was a hard-fought game and we had a wonderful time. Champions, 192V written on a picture of the Senior basketball team is a Story in itself. Our basketball season was filled with the pep of hard-fought class struggles and bitter house battles. The juniors didn't have much trouble dragging 59 a :2, GRIPF'I home the interelass trackmeet, but they suffered enough when the Sophomores shattered their dreams in the Oregon City relay. Then there was the CfOlumbia University track meet and the smokeless Menis Smoker, not to mention sonqe pretty tough tennis matches between Smash and Volley and a couple of Vletones of Oregon and O. A. C. We also recall that terrible epidemic of golf fever was cured just long enough one afternoon to stage a hexathalon whlle the Soph CO-eds took the pennant in baseball and the basement in volley-ball. Another page of the jimmy book brings home another startling fact, the fast and furious Visits of the stork to our campus. Perhaps the wild pheasants or the owl or swan or cuckoo make pretty sure bait for that significant bird. Anyhow the following young ladies and gentlemen, in order, named registered at Reed within five months at intervals ranging from one month to two weeks, Helen lVIar- garet Strong, Miss Anne Koehn,lVIr. McGregor Gray and last but not least, Miss Virginia Clark. . Surely nobody needs reminding that Reed toreadors stirred up an awful mess in the debate business. One Oregon State Championship! One sad little sister college across the border in British Columbia! One shilalahed Co-ed affair with California! One whetted ax for a Bolshevik battle with Wisconsin! But we must be modest. But the Jimmy book isnit through yet. Dont you remember that first old fire- place gathering where Mrs. Air and Grand Opera got mixed. Woodstock had a nightmare the time we outraged her sanctity with boudoir attire, and she had a rainstorm when jimmy Beard hit the lake after four minutes of terrific gasping on the Frosh end of the tug 0' war rope. And remember how Reed Supers nearly broke HSing-rnoreil Scotti when they demanded $180 an hour. Then of course there was Mrs. Knowltonis Frosh reception and the little furniture moving party that went with it. They say the harpies nearly struck when houses C, D, F, and H entertained us at open-house sessions, because the dorm closets got their annual resurrection. Deep in his chest, the little jimmy book conceals relics of roller skating parties, Klu-Klux raids at scandalous hours and Moron entertainments by wild women after bed-time hour. And therels ample evidence of a wild bonfire and weinie roast on Washingtonls birthday. Say! We nearly forgot the Drama Club plays, but the jimmy book didnit. From Ryland s studio in England they took up among the Bolsheviks and showecl us how the Bolshies act when theyire in love. Next they had us on board ship With a lot of cussing sailors, then in a Chinese castle with invisible chargers. But finally we got back to England again and got mixed up in a matrimonial br011 w1th all the Hobsons. And the tales the Jimmy book could tell of Campus day would 1Clll a library.

And again the Jimmy Books pipes in with reminders of our Cherished old Monday night and Thursday noon dances, monthly Becker organ recitals and a regular moving picture show by Amanda Reed. ' Now if jimmy books were prophets and such like we might find something about a Senior Ball, a dance drama, canoe carnivals and river days, but we'll just have to dream about these. There was Reed day though when we dressed the old college up in her Sunday-go-tO-meeting garb and showed her off to all the pros- pective frosh. And welve got to admit that it was great to return from all the vacations with their bikes and beach trips and journeys. Maybe some energetic Senior will take our suggestion and hound out the reason why little black treasure vaults with James gilded across them are dubbed jimmy Books. But for our part, we donlt care! When our great-grandchildren tell us that Reed College never amounted to much way back in 1921, well just haul out that little black book. jimmy speaks for himself.

Mrn, '5 v s. .,.M.',$m :- x , m 1.: M MN athletics HE department of Physical Education, after surviving a year without T an official head, in September opened an eventful season under the direction of George W. Clark. IVIr. Clark came to Reed from the i University of California, where he was prominent in track athletics 6Q? thruout his under-graduate career. Continuing the experimental policy adopted last year Reednagain took a stand favoring a modified intercollegiate athletic program. Followmg the demsion of . students, faculty, and alumni, voiced in questionnaires circulated during the summer, two football games were scheduled, and tennis matches and track meetings arranged. FOOTBALL The curtain was rung up on the 1920 football season when the experienced Upper-Class team trampled over the Freshmen squad in a Closely contested Campus Dav battle. An interesting intramural season, with teams representing Upper- classmen, Sophomores and Freshmen competing, preceded the intercollegiate games. The Freshman team, lacking the avoirdupois of their two opponents, dis- played excellent spirit, and after holding the Upperelassmen to a 9 to 6 score, defeated the Sophomores in a hard fought game. Outweighed ten pounds to the man the yearlings refused to be whipped, and fmally administered a 7 to 0 white- wash to their traditional rivals. The Upperclassmen clinched the championship when they trounced the Sophomores, rallying in the final quarter of a fast and hard fought game. , Football practice, under the leadership of Coach Harry Dorman, became the most popular course on the campus. With but twenty-flve inexperienced men from whom to select a team and but two weeks time in which to prepare, Dorman deserves praise for his handling of a difficult job. His graphic comments on the daily practice were ever a stimulant to the weakening hero. On Armistice Day Reed met Albany college and exhibited her inexperience by allowing a well executed split buck to completely demoralize her defense. Starting the game with a rush Reed swept the valley team off its feet, scoring two touch- downs in the first quarter. But in the next quarter Albany unloosed the split buck. Once it worked, twice it workedeReed was defeated 33 to 20. December 20th Reed journeyed en masse to Forest Grove where it witnessed a disheartening 40 to 0 defeat at the hands of Pacific University. Theteam fought hard, but was outclassed by a superior aerial attack which netted touch- downs. 'The relationships that accompanied both contests were excellent. Reed entertamed the Albany team and a score of rooters at a dance in the assembly hall, .keepmg a number of the team over night in the dorm. At Paciflc the greatest hospitality was extended and the evening will long be remembered. 64 323: g , m ,8 Egg 3; 88. g; E 333 Egg, saggy a 3. :5 Egg? mmao 05g: 3Q 35 3E 52ng g: gga ga ,- M Waggg ,. . a ,, .,,, gaggig 'WMjf$MMWRMMK.J$gmww $TARs ALL ga gggga The twenty-two men who consistently reported for practice, and Coach Dorman deserve the greatest credit for their up-hill fight throughout the season.

Special mention was made of the work of Captain Stone, Lindstrom, Gehri and Rothwell. BASKETBALL COMPETITION KEEN Reed Seniors carried away high honors in the 1920-21 basketball tOumament. f Commencing in mid-January with five teams competing, the season was replete with fast playing and exciting games. The Freshmen with a light but experienced 2 team proved the surprise of the season. Winning their first game from the Sopho- mores by a score of 17 to 15 they took the lead with the fourth year men, who had found little difficulty in disposing of the juniors, 29 to 10. Meeting the Juniors , in their next contest the yearlings again demonstrated their ability, ending a hard Q, fought game on the long end of a 12 to 9 score. . The faculty, after suffering two defeats, were forced to withdraw from the tournament, and the Victories scored over them by the Freshmen and Sophomores were not counted in the final reckoning. The Seniors closed up on the Frosh team in the third weeks play, winning a from the Sophomores in the closest game of the tournament. The final count was 23 to 21 in favor of the upperclassmen. The Sophomores clinched the cellar position ., when they failed to check thejunior forwards in next to the last game of the season. The '22 men won their lone Victory with a 22 to 19 score. The curtain was rung down on February 16 when the Seniors trampled rough shod over the Freshmen aggregation, hitherto unchecked in iynterclass games. The contest was e1ose from start to finish, and was witnessed by the largest crowd of the year. Only the phenomenal shooting of Foley and Brockway saved the day for the Seniors. The final count gave the Seniors 32 and the Freshmen 25. . All-stars, selected b'y-Dr. Knowlton, Mr. Clark and Mr. Riddle, after Close observation thruout the season, were named following the final game. The team Was composed of Foley, Senior, and Stone, Junior, forwards; Brockway, Senior, 1 ' Center; and Steffen and King, Freshmen, guards. The second team was made up 1 Of Weinstein and Ballif, forwards; Robinson, center; and 1-1. Houston and Mclndoe, guards. The Hstars failed to shine with unusual brilliancy in a post season game, When they defeated the scrubs by a single basket. There was much basketball activity in addition to the interclass contests. The house games, scheduled for 1X4onday nights, brought out much fast playing. House F, with Victories over 1-1 and G, was proclaimed dormitory champion and awarded the tin cup. Ari alumni team, with many ex-Reed stars. on its roster played several games during the season. Shumway, Gevurtz, O Neill, Workman, Wills and Fordyce were those seen most frequently. 67 batman H .

Pearson, ! star Junior miler, after running a phenomenal race made up some 300 yards on iReid, Sophomore, in the final lap and passed him less than 200 feet from the tape. :5 But the junior was exhausted by his effort, and relaxed just enough to allow the 4- ; ? underclassman to repass him and bring Victory to the Sophs. 7 .. Mayor Shannon of Oregon City started the runners on their way and supplied rl each man with a message congratulating Reed upon its choice of a new president. 3 A drizzling rain failed to dampen the enthusiasm of the day, and a score of autos i accompanied the runners over the twelve mile course. The time was slightly Q slower than that recorded last year. TUG OF WAR Despite the frantic efforts of james Beard, 240 lb. yearling, the class of 1924 succumbed to the superior avoirdupois of the Sophomores and plunged through : Crystal Springs Lake in the annUal tug-of-war. Four and one half minutes after . two tons of determined warriors had tensed into action the last Freshman had ended the contest by splashing into the green waters of the lake. Both banks 1 were crowded when the pistol nred by Mr. Clark proclaimed the battle on. James Gantenbein, Freshman coach, following the precedent of former years, swam across in the wake of his defeated team.

This year especially, class spirit has been lively and class competition keen. This year's Freshman Class, the e? men as well as the women, proved as energetic a class as the campus W0 has seen, contributing abundant Class spirit and displaying an aptitude for all lines of sports. First in order of events was the volley-ball tournament. The Sophomores and Freshmen earned the right to play in the final round after beating the Juniors and Seniors in some rousing matches. The Sophomores triumphed over the F reshmen in a three-game match which created many thrills for the gallery. The scores were 15-13, 5-15 and 4-15. But the ambitious Freshmen were not so easily van- quished. They challenged the Sophomores to another contest, but the Sophomores again emerged-this time full-Hedged Champions with scores 5-15, 14-15 in their favor. We are proud of the fact that practically every girl on the campus participated in the squash and tennis tournaments of the season. The squash tournament proved an exciting feature this year. Frances Kling of the Sophomore class and Madelaine Steffen of the junior class played their way into the finals. Undoubtedly one of the most interesting matches of the tournament and one that brought forth the most enthusuastic gallery was that between Frances Kling and Alice Lathrop of the Freshman class in the semi-hnal round. After a mighty battle Miss Kling won, the scores being 21-16, 22-20. In the final round between Miss Kling and Miss Steffen the scores were 21-1, 21-10, Miss Steffen popping the lucky stroke. Another event of the season was the indoor baseball tournament which was ushered in by some snappy inter-class games. The Seniors and the Sophomores proved to be the heaviest hitters and put up a lively championship game. The Sophomores again carried off the crown but the Seniors were close at their heels with a score of 18-16 in a nine inning game. The Spring tennis tournament is now well under way and the F reshmen again promise to be strong contenders. Tennis is one of the most popular sports on the campus judging from the enthusiasts who frequent the courts at o a. m. several times a week. The mixed doubles tournament should be very interesting this year, there being many strong teams in progress. Miss Heilman, head of the Physical Education Department for Women, and Miss Nilson, assistant, have ably directed the season's program. What proved to be quite an innovation was the stressing of volley-ball and indoor-base ball as 70 ' thrills for US Freshmen another cont ' dons with u every girl on he season.

Tobe wream-TA Wantasy This is no mansion newly-raisecl, this Palace of Dreams; for unnumbered years passed slowly in its building. Fathomless seas have beat against its high cliffs, and unknown centuries have worn to grayness its dim outlines. Dark it stands above the endless ocean, high against more endless skies. Far above the gulls pass and repass in their flight toward vanishing horizons, and far below the breakers roll against the age-old crags. There stands the lVIansion of Dreams. Few men know it is there, and those few have forgotten, for it was built before their day. To them it is but a legend once-told, and now no longer remembered. Here you can be alone; alone, with only the slow-moving sea gulls above, and far, far below, the sound of the measureless ocean. Around it are great gardens, filled with strange flowers from across the seas. Here are orchids, patterned with orange and black; moccasin-slippers with fiery, scarlet tongues, and here and there poison arrow-Howers from tropical forests. Labyrinthean paths lead between trees which sway above the flowers and speak in cleathlike' whispers of things which were but now have ceased to be. Deep pools where spotted lilies move in rythm with the murmuring above them, lie, half-hidden in the darkness. No birds frequent these lonely and deserted gardens, and only the winds breathe to them tales of lands from whence they came. And they, listening, sigh and sigh again, and are forever silent. Over all is a strangeness and a brooding quiet, the solitude of seas and boundless skies. Inside the great doors, open ever to the breeze and the murmurs of hushed . gardens, are strange rooms, filled with matchless treasures of no age and of no time. Long shadows from corners which have no beginning and no end, darken Hoors covered with rich rugs woven in colors, and marked with queer devices. There are told in their warps, tales of far-distant lands; caravans freightecl with priceless treasures, perishing under desert suns while oceans of sand sweep over them; legends of love and death in the heart of a land where only the stars are wise. and men are as senseless fools; tales of jade, and gold, and bronze; of incense burn- ing in carven temples; tales of forests of teak, of jewels less beautiful than maidens who sway to music but half-heard. All these are there on the floor in colors which are as a fragrance, and matchless beauty. Strange tapestries are hung on panelled walls from low ceilings framed in dark beamsetapestries whose working was the life time of slaves of their masters. There, too, are chairs carved in weird, fantastic shapes, bent to fit the sitter; tables inlaid with ivory, and one of blackest ebony with mother-of-pearl from bottomless caverns of the sea tinted in rose and Opales- cent hues. ln far corners are seen great chests half-opened and filled with richest fabricsasilks filmy as the foam of the sea, and more transparent; garments worked with rare jewels in dreamlike shapes, and wrought in curious designs; mantles broidered with precious metals in finest workmanship; jewels for dusky hair, and bracelets of silver set with jade for ankles white as milk; girdles of gold in- wrought with rubies, and here and there glimpses of a sandal for a foot of rosy '74 have beat'WW if i. ll W Skies. mm, and la! l W0 of l, WWWM$ 0 lOnger r W 3 gulls above,: 1' x ige flowers fmf Ckmmw: iW-flowers from g wwmmm memg the murmuring l: immma BMmeg erww admm.; eze and the W reasuresolmllf ming and MW rked Wllll WW? wmeW of sand , Q J, EM, 192 7?: His GRIFF'I W; beauty.

They told how this mighty ruler lived alone with his star of the heavens; how they spoke not but lived in love and strangest silentness; how the long days found them deep in the gardens where the flowers bent to kiss the feet which brushed them passing and the wind murmured to the trees of love which knows no end; and how in the evenin the maiden danced in the shadows for him who loved her; how her limbs showeg pale thrti their garments as she moved in slow measures and the lilies fell from her hair to lie forgotten on the moon-bearned floor; how they slept in the darkness w1th limbs closepressed on cushions soft and silken. Some say they never died but live still in the dark corners of the endless rooms, or roam without in the gardens where the flowers whisper to the winds. And some say they were but a dream, and the palace but a dream; that life too, is but a dream which has no ending, and that we who live but dream we live, and know not that ltis all a dream; that these two shall live forever in their mansion of dreams with the gulls far, far above, and far below the beating Sea against the giant crags. -M. j.

Slowly but surely, all the Spring began to ooze out of you; you subsided gently into the depths of your seat. But it is not etiquette visibly to go to sleep in class, so you kept your eyes open in glassy staree for effect. Finally, you did awaken a mild interest in the front of the room.

They scarcely have time for their meals But write English themes with one hand And eat their bread and butter With the other. They can spout Chemistry formulas By the yard And tell you the exact date Calthroanpieeous Crossed the Basaltic. They rush madly from one class to another A dozen volumes under each arm And they think they're terribly Busy. Then there are the Chronic Fussers. They are just saturated with dates, And tell you with a satisfied air They havenit gotten home before midnight For two weeks. They are simply suberb In the toddle.

So he rambles on, never truculent, curt or harcluboiled. I have heard it said of him by fellow-workers going off shift, that he inquired sorne five times of a lady, if she had succeeded in recovering a lost umbrella, always forgetting, in his thought- fulness, his previous inquiry. I suppose that under ordinary circumstances, a conductor who talks politics with passengers, would be called on the carpet. In this special case, I suppose, the tremendous influence for equanirnity and good-will toward even the exasperating street-car system, is recognized as a rare gift in a street-car conductor. So he is permitted to regale his passengers with his interesting sentiments. C. S. HERE is a conductor on the Sellwood line who is a model for courtesy i.

Howard Demosthenes Smyth of the forty faces is a man of different calibre. As prime minister, he bears up nobly under the burden of official duties which consist mainly in talking whenever there is a chance, but it is in his role of court fool that his real abilities are brought to light. His quiet, unassuming dignity wins him the admiration and respect of all. Henrietta, Marie, Edith, and Marjorie are maids of honor and amuse the king in his idle hours. These with a host of other retainers form the court which meets daily in the cafeteria where Smyth features as toastmaster. Ebat Warmbouse Crew 5323.11 Jr 31PM: WI! bu EEHh 11 fit is 33.1.! In K3 .

Meanwhile, it being after ten-thirty, the confused and negligee figures of Mclndoe, Piper, Pattullo and Henny are to be seen rushing hither and thither,vainly seeking a corner in which to catch a moments repose. Above all, with upraised arms and flowing robe like the ancient prophet of Baal, stands Holland, pleading for peace and threatening the wrath of im- patient Gods, but all pleadings are in vain, all supplication without end, for Gods are deaf, McGowan snored on and the Owl sang Bushwa from the sycamore tree. i't'rm , .4 :. int i y t I 5-13? t h'ltnt s't trtu i .VL w is, G ,1 l. k lrl.r5 wt;i HOUSE G M i parties, but put itself on the map this year with a new House emblem, ahouse song :91th and a basketball team. 51.6.

HOUSE H It must be terrible to be a roommate. Take Woodings e. g, hels Van Ettenis roommate and they are always arguing. The public has maybe wondered why these two hasnit never killed each other to end a dispute. Well, the answer is they donlt like to end a dispute SO easy. Leith and Robbie is different. They has brotherly love. They both wears No. 36 nightgowns and drive their lady friends Buick and Overland, respectfully. Mr. Hamilton and wife, Mrs. Gehri, gets along happilly except that the Swiss plumber keeps his pickled tarantulas in the front room.
