Like the saddest time yet the gladdest time that the life of a student knows. No more a)u men, so long our guides, will tread the cami)us o’er; You never more will Inick the line, as the frenzied bleachers roar; No more will students know you as unselhsh, time-tried friends, For now you pass the portals on the road that nev’er ends. As rank on rank we see you pass, our grief with gladness blends, For strong and clear the call you hear that sin-racked mankind sends; With clean, true lives and ideals high, from which you’ll never swerve, You go out now to give yourselves — to hght, and love, and serve. May strength be yours and vision clear, the right to see and do. With line flung out the world around, to Springheld still be true! Still tread the path of service, that all her sons have trod. And strong of heart, go! do your part in winning men for God! 7 i.cT- Poarb of €bitor£i Charles E. Crissey Verne C. Parker Edgar H. K. Ellis Anson T. Leary Clarence P. Hammerstein H.

Bowman, President of the Springfield National Bank, who has served now for nineteen years as Treasurer and thirty years as Trustee, not only caring for the funds with scrupulous fidelity hut generously devoting to the promotion of all the interests of the college his wide experience and his mature judgment. Mr. Bowman was one of that group of young Springfield men who learned hanking from Henry S. Lee and whose ideals were formed hy that model Christian business man, so remarkable for his integrity, judiciousness, courtesy, sympathy, and enthusiasm for every patriotic and religious cause. Serving on a number of the most important committees of the Board of Trustees, Mr. Bowman has given freely of his time and thought to all of the fundamental problems of the college, and it has often been due to his foresight and breadth of view that the right course was taken m doubtful matters. Needless losses have been avoided and advantageous arrangements have been made. The dignified furniture of the Trustees room in the Library building — the massive polished oak table and chairs and the beautiful rug — all the gift of Mr. Bowman, may be mentioned as as example both of his generosity and his fine taste. At commencement dinners and on similar social occasions Mr. Bowman is a favorite toastmaster lor he is not only a man of business but a student of the best literature, and as an after-dinner speaker is especially happy in saying the right thing in the right words. His genial good humor and ready wit give the tone to the evening. The general public naturally think most of the athletic, educational, and religious work of the college. All honor to the business men who, standing in the background, by unremitting care of its financial affairs make all the rest possible! Page five Jforetoori) To faithfully portray the life of our institution, to preserve the records of deeds done, to “render unto Csesar the things that are Caesar’s,’’ is the task that the editors of this volume have set themselves. In so far as the reader is edihed, enlightened, and entertained throughout these pages, in such degree will this task be com])lete, and the trust imposed on the compilers discharged. The 1916 Mdssasoit has iu)t l)een the work ot the editors alone. I ' he entire college has C(j-operated to a remarkable degree, and the heartiest thanks of the edit(jrial staff are due to all who have helped. Special mention should be made of the tireless work ( 1 Ahmtagu h . Modder, of the graduating class, wh(jse artistic ability and unfailing gocxl will have made the ol)taining ot suitable art work a jo ’ to the editors, rather than a task. lo Messrs. Bird, Hoskins, and Ferris, of the same class, are due the thanks of the editors for their splendid work in the Senior section ot the book. Ralph L. d ichenor, ot the ( lass ot 1917, is als( to be commended for his cle er woik with his camera. ' I ' he 1916 jMassdSoit, therefore, greets a generous public with the hope that the labor and time expended on this volume have not lieen in vain, and that it may b( ' c ' onsidered worthy of a jilace in the ever- lengthening line of annuals marking the growth of our college. The Editors. six Page seven TKL T A55AS01T --miiETEErT SIXTEEH ' oitor ; ocieti The Honor Society of Springfield College la s claim to distinction on two counts: first, the unique recpiirements for admittance to the society, and, second, the unusual way in which the candidate’s qualifications are determined. In common with the Phi Beta Kajipa and other honorar ' organizations, the basis of membership is scholarship. The Honor Societ ’ of Springfield, however, reciuircs more than the mere application to study, resulting in high grades. Its founders believed that our school of all schools stood for all-round dcvclojmient of Christian manhood, and with this thought in mind the requirements of the society were formulated. Character, Cajiacity, and Culture are the three elements entering into the considerations for membership, and are symbolized liy the (ireek letters which arc the initials of the words in translation, Kajipa, Delta, Pi.” Space will not |)ermit the defining of these terms in the detail they deserve, but the reader will readily see that no “bookworm,” no “unsocial l)cing,” or other “freak” will be admitted. This will api)car all the more readily when the system of choosing is understood. The committee from the Faculty makes out a list (d ' the fifteen men (jf the graduating class, who in their estimation are best examples of these three ideals, all-nnmd men. Similar lists are prepared b} ' the Faculty as a wh(de, and by the Seniors themseh’es, all bearing in mind the three reciuiremcnts. At the clo.se of this ' oting. the three lists are compared and 1) - an ingenious system of scoring the a ’erage results are pnjcured. This works out in j ractice in a somewhat remarkaljle wa ' , in that the three lists vary ever .so slightly as to order of ch(fice, and almost as slightly in the three columns of requirements. It will l)e seen that this is a very democratic and unusual method of securing the names. In 1915 eleven men were elected to the society, and in 1916, the second year, thirteen men received the honor. Their names and portraits appear on the opposite i)age. The matter of choosing a suitable emblem has been under consideration for some time, and the emblem which finalh ' appears as the result is a triangular key, with the Greek letters engra ed on the face, and the man’s name and year on the reverse.

This article does not purport to be a detailed history of our Alma Mater, but a l)ricf survey of the outstanding events in its past, and a statement of the forwartl ste]:)s that may reasonably be expected within the near future. It is a far cry from the little group of men, meeting in old Hope Church, under the supervision of one paid instructor, to the two hundred and eighty men who use seven modern buildings on a thirty acre campus, studying under the direction of fourteen professors. And yet all this is the growth of a little more than thirty years. And more and more one realizes that this school must have had brooding over it from its inception the spirit of ( ' lod, aiding and strengthening the men who have guided its destiny along the j)aths of success. Air. David Allen Reed, pastor of a Springfield church, realized that there was no adcc|uatc work for young men being done in the city. During conferences with various Young Men’s Christian Association secretaries regarding the founding of an Association in the city, the fact was brought out that the Association was suffering from lack of trained leadership, and that owing to this lack it was not doing the work it might do. As a result ol this conviction, Mr. Reed was instrumental in founding, in 1885, the School for Christian Workers. The few men who enrolled met in the old Hope chapel, under the super ision of Mr. J. T. Bowne, who was instructor in Association methods. It is interesting to note that Mr. Bowne has been connected with the faculty ever since. In addition to Mr. Bowne’s course, there was instruction in Bible, church history, biograidiies ot successful laymen, rhetoric, comj)osition, and light gymnastics. These courses were given by ministers, etc., who were i)ressed into service. Many prominent Association men were consulted al)oul the founding of the school and the mai)ping out of the curriculum, although the Association did not affiliate itself with the young institution in any way. The story of the years that follow is a story of steady addition to the equipment and resources of the school, and of constant broadening of scope and influence. Within a short time a Ituildlng was secured on the corner of State and Sherman streets which contained class rooms, d(jrmitor ’, and gymnasium. A little later it was realized that there was a pressing need of trained physical directors as well as trained secretaries, and so the men of faith who had Page eleven ( ' harge of the institution unhesitatingly undertook this l)ranch of work, securing Dr. Luther Halsey (nilick, then in Oherlin, to work out the course. This was in 1888. Stuck ' uts were l)eginning to come to the school in larger and larger numbers, e ' en from foreign lands, and the need of a satisfactory location for a school which wotild eventually be several times larger than it was during the late eighties was felt. With marked wischmi and foresight for the needs ot the two departments, |)hysical and secretarial, thirty acres of land on the shores ot Lake Massascjit were i)urchased. ’ear l)y ear funds were secured for the erection of buildings and the addition of faculty meml)crs, and to-da ’ a large dormitor ’, two splendid gymnasiums, axjds Hall, the boathouse, and our beautiful librar} ' building overlook the placid clearness of the forest- girdled lake. Four spacious athletic helds, one of them among the hnest in the country, and a new natatorium are included in the physical equi])ment. Otir own power house lights and heats the buildings on the campus, and the latest addition to the school i)ro])crty has l)een a home for the president. As may be imagined, the financial I)iirden of this tremendotis and almost startling increase in equipment, in addition to current expenses, has been ver - heavy. Only the loving gifts (d consecrated, far-seeing men and women and the de oted and self-sacrihcing work of the men in charge cd the scho(d ha e made it pt ssible, and the hearts of Sitringheld men the world around are warm with gratittide and lo e ha ' those who thnmgh their geiKTosity have built up the school to its ])resent position. In 1895 the c ' ourse of stud ’ was extended to three years, and many courses added. The aim throughout its history has been to giw the hnest p(xssible technical training in Association work and physical education, a thorough religious education, and the main elements ot a liberal culture. Ot recent ears it has become the ])olic ’ to re(|uire original investigation, and t this end a thesis is lunv re(|uirc“d of each man who is graduated, which is the Iruit ot his own research. h ' (jur years ago, through an act ot the Lc ' gislattire ot Massachusetts, the name (d the institution was changed to “The International d)img Men’s ( hristian Association C cdlege,” and the authorit} ' tc honor graduates ot th(‘ Sc ' cretarial Dejcartment witli the degree cd Bachelor cd Humanics, and ot th(‘ Physic al I )e]xirtmc‘nt with Bachelor ot Physical Fducaticjn, wasgi en. In 1914 the ( ' ounty W’ork Department, tcjr the training of men tor the rural work of the Oung Men’s C hristian Association, was added as a sub- dc-jjartmcmt cd the- Secretarial Division. This de|)artment is under the supc ' rvision of Mr. W. J. C ampbell, who wasadded tcj the facility at that time. We have ' strivc-n to give an idea cd what the college is to-day, with an indic ' ation of the- marvc-lous way in whic ' h its influence has broadened and ■’ugr twelve its task increased. 1916 is to see one of the most important forward steps that has been made in the history of the school, namely, the increasing of the course of study to four years, and the addition of several faculty members. President Doggett has given the following statement of the changes which are to be inau gurated in the near future: — THE FOl ' R YEARS’ COURSE The past year has been signalized In’ three things — the retriev- ing of our hnancial position, which was greatly embarrassed l)y the outbreak of the war, the more friendly and more intimate relationshij)s with the ’oung Men’s Christian Association, and the steps for the inauguration of our four years’ course of study. The introduction of the four years’ course is epoch making in its importance to vocational training for the Asscx ' iation calling. This addition in no wa ’ changes the primal pur])Ose of the college. The college aims to fit Christian students for a life service in the ’oung Men’s Christian Association as employed (officers. It also admits young men who wish to serve in allied callings. Students who desire will continue to l)e graduated at the end of three }ears with a diploma. College graduates will be admitted to the junicjr year and ought to secure the ocational degree in two years. The full course in the future leading to a degree will cover four years. This will be open to men who have a high school education or its eciuivalcnt. The four years’ course will give Springheld full college standing, enable it to do its work more effectively, and it is belie ed will attract a larger body of high grade men. We ought to have 400 students enrolled in the near future. The new course of study is based on the Association ideal of studying the all-round man in l)ody, mind, and si)irit. This bases the instruction in religious thinking upon biology, i)sychology, and soci(jlog ’. The ( ' urric ' ulum aims t( do four things — to give a religious education, a training for social ser icc, a liberal culture, and a technical equii)ment for a life of service. It gives the leading features of a college education except the ancient and modern languages and higher mathematics. This establishment of a specialized school which will bring together large numbers of young men who are fitting ffjr the same vocation is in direct line with the educational tendencies of the j)resent time. The great agricultural colleges seek to give a training for scientihe farming and the new School of Journalism at Columl)ia gives a training for Page thirteen journalism wliile one is taking his ( ' ollege course. Many of the schools ot commerce, like the Wharton School at the lhiiversit ’ of PeimsyK anki, are established on the same ])lan, and the technical institutions which seek to ht men for leadership in industrial life are in most cases tonr-year nndergradnate courses. The ])lan |)roi)osed at Springheld will estaltlish a great oca- tional college which will ht men for religions leadership among boys and young men. It is anticipated that many of the abler students will go forward for graduate work elsewhere. In securing an education one has two aims — personal develop- ment and a ’ocational training. It is possiltle to secure a training for personal development first and then one’s professional or voca- tional training, or one may major in his vocational subjects and follow cultural subjects while he is securing his professional equip- ment. This latter iilan gives a vocational motive for all stud ’. It determines the selection of one’s cultural subjects. It creates the habit of study for personal development as well as for vocational advancement. In training for social service this is, we lielieve, the better jilan liecan.se the subjects which ht one for social service also have cultural value. Such branches as sociology, psychology, history, and literature, which form the foundations of culture, are at the same time the very means when properly ai)plietl for htting a student for religious and social leadership. The danger is not that one will specialize too early, l)ut that he will become absorbed in his specialty and neglect liberal culture. Every genuine educational institution must keej) both of these aims in view if it would have abiding power. In inaugurating the hmr years’ C(jurse there will be added to the faculty for the year l)eginning in Sej)teml)er a professor in biology, a specialist in boys’ work, and a teacher in medical gym- nastics who will also have charge of the physical instruction for the secretarial men. It will be necessary soon t(j add to the faculty another profes.sor for religious instruction, an additional instructor in English, in the secretarial course an instructor in lousiness administration, and in the physical course an instructor in chem- istry. In the near future there should also l)e de veloi:)ed a course f(jr railroad and industrial secretaries and a course for men from foreign countries. It is j)robable also that the work in religious education will be so specialized as to offer more comj lete courses for training religious work directors.

Clasg Hisitorp The Class of 1916 started life with two enormous advantages. The Class was good-looking and also destined t(j graduate in a Leaj:) Year! To be born with the ability to “keep together’’ and act as a Unit, is to be born with a silver spoon in the mouth. I asked a friendly critic how he would describe the Class of 1916 and he answered promptly; “Describe the Class as }’ou would a man; treat it as an individual!’’ The historian’s problem was solved. Mr. Senior Class! He presents a curious jiaradox indeed. He has all the virtues of a Sunday scho(d teacher, and all the “punch’’ of a really desperate footl)all player. Physically he is well set ui). He has trained himself to excel in all branches of athletics, as is shown by his somewhat ostentatious disj)lay of X’arsity emblems when showing young ladies around the Campus. Football has hardened his muscles and taught him sell- control. Fencing has given him (}uickness and dexterit ' . We said Mr. Senior Class has an abundance of virtue. Listen to him as he gives his message to the little Christian Endeavorites on Sunday afternoon. He has also been known to give lectures at the Boys’ Clul) with last year’s Psychology Notes. He has taken advantage of those twenty-four lessons in paper-back covers on Efficiency; and no longer does he waste his time in shac ' ing , bathing, and the other luxuries of life! No! he abides by a Schedule. It has all been worked out, hours ahead, what he will do after supper, and what he will not do the next day, and so forth. He can only be seen by appointment. There are times when this Schedule will not work, but nothing less than a phone-call and a sweet voice i)leading for Mr. Senior to “come over and teach us how to swim this evening” will make him give up his Schedule. On Sundays he will help the rest of the world to be religious. He will teach your boys at Sunda ’ school, sing in your choir, preach an elocpient sermon, and see oiir young ladies safely home, and duh’ accept normal credits for the same. On week days, you will see him hitting from class room to class room, from gym to his beloved thesis, then sit down to re iew seven mighty volumes for Dr. McCurdy, and write Page forty one a tairly readable essa ’ on some al)striise siil)ject for Professor Best before slipiiiiig into l)ed. The performances of Mr. Senior Class in his Freshman and Junior year cannot be recorded in their entirety. It is a recorded fact, however, that he held nine of the Cabinet (jffices in his Junior year, and all the offices in his Senior ear. The faculty have from time to time expressed their confi- dence in, and appreciation of, his work. Dr. Seerley had so much faith in his good looks that he thought it unnecessary to call the roll. Mr. Senior Class was always present! Professor Hyde went one better; he wrote a song, one of the best in college, and dedicated it to the Class of 1916. In the strenuous race for the survival of the fittest, Mr. Senior Class has gone through many experiences. He has sur ived many a stern test, and what you see of him to-day is the result of sheer determination to survive. Also, what ’ou see of him to-day is what the faculty have considered “fit to graduate.” Therefore, he is of good quality, select stock! He has shoveled snow, cho})ped wood, washed dishes, and run on errands, in order to get through college. The abo e is a composite portrait of the Class of 1916. As such, it is lairly reliable. But we haven’t said all that can l)c said of the achievements of the Class. One of the good services of the Class was the institution of the Academic Committee, to look after the interests of the studies of the men. It is gratif ’ing to us to ol)serve that the other classes have followed our examj le. F ery class in the j ast has left its impress on the life of the ccdlege, and we trust that the mark we leave l)ehind us is worthy of the high ideals of S])ringfield College. The Class of 1916 has voted to make the first contribution to the Student Association Building. That is in keejiing with the spirit of the Class. The building, it is hoped, will foster the spirit of Fnity, Friendship, and Service. Our real History begins to-day. The college has endeavored to fit us for the Service of men, and what the Class of 1916 will do in the “battle line” — that is what will ultimately count! Some of us feel we can tackle some (T the problems that exist in our modern cities to-day, and there are others of us who feel the need of more strength and knowledge. But the spirit that guides us to our respective fields of activity is the Spirit of Service. In conclusion, we hope that when you have forgotten the glorious contests of old, how we beat the Juniors fourteen j oints to nil, and the Preps forty-three ])oints to nil, in football in our Freshman year, and similar olluT victories; wlam ycju ha e forgotten the strife of other days, we hope you will nanember us as felhnvs who have tried t(; do their best as they knew how. And pk-asc bcair in mind that when we meet in the world of struggle, the men of flu Class of 1916 will be most happy to be of service to you! Page forty two ®f)at ®otem Al)out this time of year, when the spring term is drawing to a rapid climax, when the Seniors have cleared awa ’ all conditions from above decks, and are preparing to plant their tree prior to graduation — about this time the Junior Class begins to meet in secret and appoint special committees of hawk-eyed detectives. Nobody knows why, at first; but the fact is evident that something is about to happen. The committee scatters itself about the campus: a part of it takes a lookout position in the Dormitor - “crow’s nest’’; amjther part of the committee investigates the attic and neighboring deserted dwellings; while a third section is detailed to act in the capacity of “sleuth- hounds.’’ And all this organization is b ' no means without a j)urp(jse. It is a “preparedness’’ scheme to entraj) the “Quaker Man’’ unawares — the “Quaker Man’’ who steals out of his hiding j lace for his annual spree, and dares the underclassmen to capture him. For the Quaker Alan, you must know, is our self-appointed and elusive Totem. We say self-appointed, because nobody seems to know how he came to be so. Tradition tells us, however, that ever since the memorable processions of the class of ’04, he has been the center of interclass conflicts without number, has stirred that healthy class rivalry into action, and made thrills of e.xcitement chase each other along the spines of the Freshmen. And elusive he is without question. His first year he passed in a loneh ' barn “up the lake,’’ then took up comfortable quarters in Catharine Street, living the life of a hermit and breathing to no one the mysterious circum- Page forty three nA55A5oir -- ' nmETEErr sixiEin stances suiTouiuiing his existence. Since then, he has had a checkered career, indeed. He has Iteen known to attend class banquets under heavy guard, has s|)cnt weary nights in coffins and pine trees, has been tincere- inoniousK’ ship|)c‘tl ’ia trolle cars and express, has wintered fashionably at Atlantic C ' ity, New Jersey, and motored by moonlight past the dorm, to the great excitement ot the sleepy inmates. His latest escapades, of last spring, were under the tender care of the C ' lass of 1915, who had Iteen guiding his fortunes for the winter. His first appearance, in an automobile driven liy some hardy Seniors, was the signal for wild excitement and plans for his capture. For the next few days life was tense with the strain of expectation, but all searching parties were without success, though tantalizing bulletins as to his whereabouts were posted in conspicuous places. According to the rules (d the game, he was not to go outside the camitus during the time of the challenge, and every square inch of the ground, except that of his hiding place, was gone over. Pits were dug on slightest suspicion of his proximit ’, but it remained for some of the members of the Cdass of 1916 to raise the hue and cry indicating his discovery. The dignified little (dd Quaker had fooled us all by climlting a tree on the opposite shore of the lake. Agile searchers soon dislodged him, and, adding fleetness of foot to agility, bca ' e him far beyond the confines of ci ilization to parts unknown. And here must rest this history. That he is still alive and healthy is generalh’ Itelieved. That he will appear this year is certain. How, when, where, the challenge will come must remain a mystery. Hist! Even now he may be within reach — and then, again, he may not! ‘‘ i ecp off tl)c (fSrnSS ” I’tigc forly four ADOLPH ANDERSON “Andy” Brooklyn, N. Y. Five years’ business experience.

Page eighty five Junior Class Jltstorj With e cr-increasing rapidity we are drawing near the close of the college year, our Junior year. A wonderful ear of progress it has been, and one full of the joy that alone comes to those who have really achieved. It becomes the duty of the historian to review, very Itriefly, some of those things to which we can look back with pride as a class. It we omit some which might seem important to those who ha e been “on the inside,’’ it must be blamed on the limit of sj)ace set for the article, and not on the over- sight of the writer. One of the ways in which our class has won a unique position for itself is along literary lines. Six of our men took |)art in the inter-society debates, and two were on the winning team, receiving medals for debating excellence. The task of publishing the Mussasoit, hitherto done by the Seniors, was this year taken over by the Juniors for the hrst time. This is con- sidered a distinct forward step. The success of our class in athletics has also been remarkable, our Freshman year furnishing a record that it will be difficult for our successors to equal. A large representation on varsity teams has l)een another contribution the class of 1917 has made to the general school life. Six of the football emblem men, including the captain-elect, are members of our class, and we have two or more men on the other varsity teams. Four ’17 men are on the college Gym Team. M ention must be made of the most important social function of the year, the class banquet. Held this year at the Coole ' Hotel roof garden, the goodly array of choice viands suited the most fastidious. At this time we had the pleasure of the company of Professor Campbell, who is an honorary member of the class. His speech was welcomed with an enthusiasm which reflected our sincere regard for him. Other speakers from the class added to (jur enj(jyment, and the good fellowship will long Ite remembered. The most important feature of our records cannot be expressed in mere words. The inspiration and interest of the facult} ' has contributed largel to the broadening of our vision and the enlarging conception of our religious mission. Our appreciation can only be shown b our eftorts to spread to others that which we have received from our daily contact with our comi)anion-teachers. It is the hope of every loyal ’17 man that we shall prove worthy of the attention that we have receixed at their hands, and that the S])irit of (Hir Alma Mater may long l)e diffused among those whom we shall touch when our days of j)reparation are over, and we shall go forth with a vision of the work of the Kingdom to l)e accomplished. Page eighty six THE. nhSSASOn - ' niHETEEn 5IXTEEH 1917 The following poem is printed by request. It was read at the Junior Class Banquet held at Cooley’s in March. — Ed. Some months ago we all slid in, a-seeking after knowledge, And soon found out that as a class, we were the best in college; Some of us were short and slim, others tall and sturdy, The smallest man was Olie and the biggest one was Purdy. We learned to laugh at Prof. Hyde’s jokes, and how to tell a story. We learned to know how Prof. Hyde flunks, for there he’s in his glory; We worked and played and laughed and sung, and grew expert at fussing. Some of us cut out our j)ipes and .some of us our cussing. And now our banquet comes along — the Juniors gral) some of us And bind and gag and tie us up, to show us how they love us. But after they had done this, our strength .seemed to redouble. So they gave up and let us go, we made so darn much trouble! Then bonny springtime rolled around — the pot of love was l)rewing. We hunted up a pretty girl and took her out canoeing. Another year has hit the trail, we tell another story. We’ve bloomed until we’re Juniors and our heads are growing hoary; Exp erience had taught us a number of quite new things — The faculty have taught us the proper way to do things; LaPoint has cut off tons of hair, Rowley teaches swimmin,’ Doc Seerley’s giving us some points on handling men and women; Though K. H. Purdy’s learned to work, he’s still not very lank ' , Hastings’ sleeve no more is used as a pocket for his hanky. We’ve learned to do quite different things — Ziel’s become a l)aker. If a chicken don’t know how to swim, Jouannet knows how to make her; We’ve learned to go to Sunday school and even to be teachers. Smith and I have riz so high that we are almost preachers, Tom Hill knows now that silver knives are not all that we eat with. We all know that a paddle’s made to pound a Freshman’s seat with. For all the old men we have lost we’re feeling very sorr ’. But we’ve got so many new ones, we’re not so bad off, are we? So at this festive banquet board, we now are realizing How high in knowledge, pep and skill, up in the world we’re rising. May every man of ’17 be happy and successful. And may our cups of earthly joy ne’er be a bit the less full! When you meet the girl you think you want, I hope that you will please her May the dishes served in your married life all be as good as these were! — H. Thomson Burtis.

And there was gathered there more than an hundredfold from all parts of the land. From the north and the sotith and the east and the west the multitude gathered to make sacrihces at the feet of the mighty King Massasoit. And upon the morning of the seventh day the King sent forth his messengers wh(j proclaimed to the assembled mtiltitude that on the evening of the third day of the new moon the children of the House of Ignorance sh(jtild l)Ow in supplication before the mighty King Massasoit and pay homage to His majesty. With a loosening of teeth and a rattling of bones, and with great fear and trembling the mighty host, arrayed in cloaks of many colors, humbly submitt(‘d themselves before the King. And the King called hjrth the wise men, aiul spake unto them saying, ‘Werily, verily 1 say unto thee; gird thy loins with a leopard’s skin and go forth and bind these sons of Ignorance to the rope of l)ondage, one on (me side and one on the other, that we may administer unto them the rites and ceremonies of the hotise of Springfield.” And the men went forth and did as the King commanded. Whereon great waxed the wallopings, and .sore great the moanings of Page ninety two the oppressed. Yet right bravely recei ' ed they the wallopings withal, for did they not expect to be wielders of the paddle in the following year? And what is a blister compared with revenge? (Jr a phinge l)ath with vengeance? erily, sitting on a cushion for a week compareth not with the joy of the cheerful giver. And as honey in the right-hand back pocket of a bumblebee, so is goofey-goof in the possession of a jo; ' ful Junior. And it came to pass that on the morrow when the moon was high in the heavens that the host entered into the King’s court and stood before all the wise men of the kingdom. And the King arose and said, “Gi ’e ear unto these wise men, for they have much wisdom.” And the children of the house of Ignorance harkened unto the words of wisdom spoken l)y the King and his wise men. And lo! behold a great mist was lifted from their eyes and they saw, and heard, and were exceeding rejoiced. And the time for the great festivals was drawing near and the King sent forth a proclamation saying, “Let us eat, drink, and be merry, for there is great rejoicing and plenty in the land. Go ye, therefore, across the great sea into the land of Gerrish and there shall ye find the apostle Hall who has prej)ared for thee some hot-dogs and doughnuts.” And the children of the house of Ignorance did as they were bid. After many days the King sent his people into other lands to learn the ways of other tribes. And the ' journeyed to Yale which lies in the great land to the southward, where they saw great battles. And it came to pass that there arose great dissension among the tribes of the house of Springfield; and the tribes of Seniors, Juniors, Freshmen, and Prejis did go torth to battle one with the (Jther, but none was so strong as to overcome the other. Hut after many days of fighting the tribe of Juniors arrayed their hosts against the sons of Ignorance on the bloody and body-strewn gridiron. And the battle waxed furious ljut as the sun dropped from the heavens the tribe of Juniors did smite the tribe of F ' reshmen and led them into camp to the tune of seven to nothing. And as the months passed many battles were fought among these tribes anti the house of Freshmen waxed victorious in Basketl)all and Hocke And the day of the feast time was drawing near. And the tribe of Freshmen did journey to the great temple of Forbes Wallace where they did break l)read and drink wine. And the wise men of the tribe spake words of wisdom, the sweet singers sang, and the harpers harped upon their stringed harps, and thus made merry the feast. And the tribe of Freshmen were filled with great joy and ice cream. And the wise men of the house of Springfield did prophesy, saying, “Lo, the Tribe of Freshmen has waxed strong in stature, and in wisdom and in favor with the rulers of the land. Let them go to it.” Page ninety three ninety four Class of 1019 Class! of 1919— 3 oU. Heiiley, K. M. S Bricldon, A. W. B Brown, Robert B Cartier, V. J. B DcLaniatcr, I). I). B Fanning, L. A.

We were fairly well lost in the shuffle last fall when we were herded in with the Freshman crowd for the purposes of initiation. But when the football season came around the whole school knew we were very much ali e and in evidence, for the Freshmen were held down to the low score of 14-0, in the annual interclass struggle for the championship. In addition to this unusually strong showing, we boast of two men on the varsity football squad, and one of these men made his emblem. At soccer, too, the Freshmen had difficulty in trying to score on us, and we finished at the long end of a 1-0 affair. The fall cross-country run was won by a Prep, the class taking 1st, vid, and 6th places, and our swimming team beat the Juniors out of third place. Iq) until Christmas time our class prayer meetings were held regularly, but at that time it was deemed wise to unite with the Freshman class in a union meeting, the plan working out very nicely. At the time (jf writing the class l)anquet has not been held, but the hazy future holds out vague promises. It might here Ije said that there are excellent j)olitical reasons for this same hazy vagueness. Strange tales have reached our ears of what has occurred in the past when by mischance the date of a class banciuet has been allowed to reach unsympathetic audi- ences. Far be it fnjm us to l)e (obliged to attend the affair by force ot arms! I ' he Class of 1919 is at {present an enthusiastic groiq3 of men striving to mould the spirit (ff the class into an organization which next year’s incoming Freshmen will feel pn ud to own as theirs, and which will rciiresent the true spirit of the school. T( the faculty and uiq)er classmen we owe not a little of the help and ins[)iration which has come to us from these months at (4d Si)ringheld, and our hearty thanks are due them. Page ninety six Page ninety seven tubent «(£(ottation fje Cabinet The guiding factor and all-controlling element in the student life of the college is the Student Association. The peculiar unity in moti ’e of our students and a strcaig loyalty to the ideals of all arc what make the Student Association jxjssible. Practically every student for the ] ast few years has been a member of this (wganization, which has grown in j)ower and influence until the treasurer’s rei)ort of the current year shows business transacted to the amount of nearly forty thousand dollars. d ' he central gcjverning l)ody is the Cabinet, elected every sjtring l)y the entire student body, and exanposed of si.xteen men, including a jiresident, vic(‘-])resident, secretar ’, and treasurer, and twelve (lei)artment heads. ' ] ' h(‘ head of each dejtartment has under him a committee of varying number, which takes entire charge of the work of the dej)artment. ninety eight THE. nA5SAsoir --nmETEErr sixteeh The Cabinet for the year 1915-16 was as follows: — President, J.

With the “call for candidates” for the musical chibs in the fall, many talented vocalists and musicians responded. After the “weeding out” process was completed, the remainder settled down to g(xxl, hard wcork, in ])reparation for the filling of the hdlowing sc ' hediile of dates arranged by Manager R. B.

March 14th, Home Concert, W est Gymnasium. In addition the clubs gave daily assistance in the singing at the chapel exercises, and at various times in other school activities. Both faculty and students have expressed their appreciation of the chapel ser ice singing, which is a new feature this year. Those men participating in concerts have long telt the need of a suitable emblem for recognition of services in representation of the college, and this year for the first time gold medals in the form of a mounted watch charm were given to the men successful in the concerts. Competition was cpiite keen, as the awarding de{)ended on attendance at rehearsals and concerts, and resulted in better attendance in both than has e er been known before in the history of the clubs. Page one hundred and one Mention might be made ot the introduction of a l)rass quartette into the musical circles ot the college. Messrs. Samson, Rhines, Bullen, and Patrick form the “ Mellowtone Four,” and bid fair to be the nucleus of a future college brass band. Springfield has hmg felt this need, especially on “Aggie Da ’.” Boost for a Band! The 1917 Class Quartette, known i)rofessionalh ' as The Balmoral Quartette, has been dispensing harmony for the past two years, and is much in demand throughout New England. Its work has Iteen much appre- ciated in the college as well. Messrs. Krtiidenier, Campbell, Crissey, and Smith conqDrise this aggregation. Sjtecial credit is due to Mr. Frank C7. Armitage for his excellent services as reader and entertainer for the clul)s. He was the center of delight at all the c(jncerts. Another artist much in demand was Mr. Arthur Hirst, violin soloist. Seldom has Springfield College been re])resented I y such high grade talent as that which he dis])la s. The general w jrk of the Glee Clul) and the Mandolin and Cniitar Clid) has im])roved both in standard (jf mtisic attempted and in successful presentation. IVof. ¥. S. H (le, the [director of Music in the college, de.serves the warmest thanks and appreciation for his “labor of love and harmoin.” Music as a desirable acquisiticju to-da ’ stands higher among the many interests of the college than ever l)efore. W ith the growth in numbers and the longer term of student life due t(j the new tour- ear course, the musical c ' lubs will be ranked among the best in Xew England.

During the past season, in the final “talk-fest,” the Philomathean team won out, obtaining medals for the indiv idual men, as well as a leg of the famous old cup, which has been the bone of contention for so many years.

Of late, however, interest has been created, plays of a dignified worth have been attempted, and dramatics begin to take impor- tant place in the college life here. Several handicai)s have prevented the attempting of more elaborate productions than those already staged. One is the l ack of a suitaltle per- manent stage with wings and lighting features, and the other is the lack of financial support to such enterprises. In sjtite of these drawbacks, however, the past two years especially have seen a steady growth of dramatic interest that is highly gratifying. Not a little of this interest is due to the efforts of Mr. Frank G. Armitttge, Prof. F. S. Hyde, and Mrs. L. L. Doggett, who have all given liberally of their time and talents to assist in many ways. Page one hundred and eleven The major productions of the |xist year were “A Midsummer Night’s Dream,” gi en last Ma ' Da ' ; “The Pillars of Society,” the 1915 Com- mencement Pla ’; “The Ghost of Jerry Hundler,” gi en by the Ibsen C’haj)ter of the club; and “The Twelve Pound Lo(jk” and “Gti ' hawkcs,” given b - the Doggett C ' hapter.

Only the fact of the multiplicity of interests and duties has kept the association from mustering a larger roll of members, as the value of the work is well known to all. Speakers have been sent out from the organization to different churches and societies, as calls have come in for such service, and the results of such extension educational work have been of a very satisfactory nature. A wider field, greater interest, and more usefulness to the community are some of the things looked forward to in the coming year.

Buck; Vice-President, Paul Otto; Secretary, Verne C. Parker. The men co-operated with Springfield City Hermon Club in preparing for the annual banquet held at the State Street Baptist Church in January of this year. It was voted at that time to elect the president of the college club to membership on the City Club Executive Committee. On March 14th the club was honored in having as a guest the president of the Hermon Alumni Association, Mr. A. E. Roberts. The membership for the year 1915-1916 is as follows: — A. E. Barrett, H. E.

' es, the whole college looks forward to May Day, for is not Commencement very near, and are they not allowed to sport last summer’s white flannels for the first time, along with the Itlue (or browm or gray, for that matter) coat and the dry-cleaned straw ' hat? Just w ' atch them carelessly saunter up to the cashier and purchase the two tickets which admit to Chef Hall’s choicest. The F. B. W. or J. B.

And b ' the time the young lady has finished telling how much she has enjoyed the afternoon, behold, twilight, and a troop of “ Armitagian ’’ actors perpetrating a few of the oft-mentioned atrocities. Ah, those spring evenings, inspiring to poetry the wry Preps themselves, enrai)turing in their tranciuil l)eauty of moon filt’ring through birch and {)ine, kissing the velvet waters Itencath with sweet caress! Oh, splash! Page one hundred and twenty four On just such an evening was the annual canoe carnival held, heralded by bustling preparation and miracles in the way of creating artistic effects from nothing. One hundred men, working with the joy of the artist, produced canoe floats of as many designs and figures, the whole line of eighty or ' -a re water craft forming the most unique of sights. Who can forget the graceful progress of the winding line of boats, the strains of the l)and music, the climax of bursting red fire from each canoe in line. ' Then summer, with the advance notes of wisdom profound sent out to the prospective Freshmen. What wisdom was there, my friends! And Echo answers “What?” The present state of good health the writer enjoys emboldens him to recall The Initiation, when the newcomers are one and all brought into close contact with the upperclassmen by the unbelievably cordial action of the latter-mentioned. Mention must also be made of the rough-and-ready up-the-lake get-together, where the evening’s performance is incomplete unless you get an eye-full of smoke and a collar-full of hot coffee. Here it is that all meet on common ground, and the seeds of friendship are sown . The president’s reception, with the gracious hospitality of Dr. and Mrs. Doggett, will long be remembered by all attending. The long hike of the fall season, on Mountain Day, was last year taken to the sparkling Lithia Springs, and later on to Xorlhamj)ton and South Hadley, where untold opportunities in the way of social normal credits are lurking. Report has it that George Sully turned in eight on that eventful day. Busy lad! Another great day with the student body is the annual invasion of the “Aggies,” six hundred strong, led by the Student ’ohmteer Band (not missionary). Wfith songs of high ho]: e, a towering bonfire for the winners, co-ed luncheons, and college dramatics, it is alwa ’s a big day for Springfield, even though occasionally our team omits winning the game. The football rece{)tion held at the end of the season is featured by attractive souvenir programs and refreshments. The latter esj ecially are thoroughly enjoyed, even Dot Whalen and Tommy Shea approving. Of course there are speeches, too, along with music and dramatics, to make up the evening’s worth. Sj)ace forbids mention of the Sunday evening fellowships around the fire at Woods Hall, the numerous open houses. Thanksgiving dinner, holiday socials, and other affairs with which the college men are only too well acquainted. And after all, the fundamental work of the Social Committee is the fostering of that s])irit of good comradeship and mutual sympathy and helpfulness which will in after years make memories of old Springfield so precious to us all. College spirit is impossible without these warm personal friendships, which, “though light as air, are strong as iron l)antls,” and in the final analysis make life realh’ worth li ing. Page one hundred and twenty five ®t)e Senate This Senate is a body of students picked from all four classes by election at the beginning of the fall term, whose duty it is to act as an intermediary body between the students and faculty in all matters of discipline or tradi- tion. They are the final authority among the students in all matters ])ertaining to l)chavior on the campus, and may recommend to the faculty for dismission or other action any student who is found guilty of any college misdemeaiKjr. The Honor System prevails throughout the school, all students sub- scribing to the conditions by membershi]) in the Student Association. The absence of other monitors than these in the dormitory reacts in a remarkable way upon the new students who enter, as it immediately throws upon them the resj)(jnsibility of restraining themselves while under no restraint. The character-building results are !) ' no means small. The tendency to disorder and rough-house grows less each year, this ' ear being the scene of but one such outbreak. In frankness be it said that that once was thonnigh enough to make up for neglect at other times. This y( ar’s Senate is com])(«ed of the following: Walter Campbell, I’resident; L. K. Sorg, J. P. Heinel, Felix Rossetti, J. F. Middagh, Leon Kranz, Harry 1 hKjgesteger, L. J. Judd, A. H. Marvill, H. T. Fice. one hundred and twenty six W oods Hall occu{)ies an important and uniciue position in the Student Life of our college. In spite of the uncomfortable cramped conditions for lack of adequate space, an approximate average of one hundred and ninety have gathered there daily for necessary nourishment and the joy of social and intellectual good-fellowship. The Woods Hall Committee is deeply gratihed that the Hall has been so successful this year, realizing the great handicap of congested conditions and the soaring prices of foodstuffs. Page one hundred and tirenty seven In actual receipts this department handled in the past year $19,250, showing an increase over last ' ear of nearly $4,000. This is the largest department of our Student xAssociaticm, and shows the responsil)ility of those put in charge. To satisfy the inner man of a critical crowd of college students is a task which is l)y no means a small matter. The rewards of accomplishing this task arc due to Mr. Hall, whose c.xpert ability has been so valual)le and appreciated. Mr. and Mrs. Hall have also won the hearts of every student, their pleasing ])ersonalities and untold kindnesses ever remaining as pleasant memories of those who were fortunate enough to make their close acquaintance. Thanks are due the Woods Hall Committee for the ungrudging efforts and time spent in behalf of the l)etterment of the Hall. May it continue to grow in numl)ers, size, and importance. employment department The Employment Department has had another ear of growth, and, although it is still not sufficient to meet the needs of all the students, it is rapidly developing into one of the livest departments of the Student Asscjclation. During the season that has so recently clcjsed, this de])artment has served a twofold purpose. Not (ml ' has it helped those stu- dents who are sclf-supj3orting, but it has at the same time brought the men of the college int(j close relationships with the business men of the city, to the mutual l)eneht of both. The season of 1915-16 has been an unusually successful one from the standiKjint of the students themselves. This college has long l)een noted f(w the large number of men who are willing to earn their education, and during this season nearly every student has had an opi)ortunity to provide means for his education as well as for a comhwtable living. ICich year the resi)onsibilities of this (lei)artment become more intense. Success in the years to come will be attained only in such measure as the men are willing t j give their hearty co-operation to the efforts of the com- mittee. Page one hundred and Iwenly eight ®f)e tubent tore It is gratifying to know that we are successors to progressive and far-sighted men. With the (jpj)osition of the usual crowd that “take all the joy out of life,” the li x“ men (d the Student Association purchased the private store of Mr. S. F. Wright five years ago and added to our association de- partmental activities the Student Co-operati e Store. By way of refutation to the doubters, the store, under the able manage- ment of Mr. Marry Whiteman, turned in at the close of the year a total sales account of $6,700.11. Wdth the sinking fund and exijense reductions, $l,05vk39 were divided among those students who had been conhdent enough to save their sales receipts, an 18 per cent dividend being declared. Success had followed the hrst venture. Succeeding managers are trained by- two y-ears’ service as assistants, and the future of the store is well established. Wdien the present busi- ness y-ear for the store is over, the books will un- doubtedly- show an increase. This is i)artly- due to the increase in thestudent body, but much credit is to be given to the manager, Mr. Ferris, for the way he has handled this (lei)artment. Several new lines have been added to meet the growing- demands of the students. Page one hundred and twenty nine deputation ®rips Many of the men at college have been on a deputation trip at one time or another. Some go to improve their talents, dramatical, musical, or oratorical; some take them as an antidote for the cynical blase attitude of mind so often acquired at college; and some go for social service. This last reason, if given at all, is usually mentioned in a whisper. Suppose we leave college with a typical delegation some Saturday morning and travel to some remote corner of the earth, and see what happens. The men chosen for the deputation team generally have some marked ability or talent, but this is not absolutely essential if one thinks he has some special gift — and thinks it hard enough. The balloon of bluff has carried many a man to unknown heights — only to collapse. Personal appearance also counts for a great deal. A lady in one of the towns visited remarked this past summer, “Scotty was such a fine fellow. I quite fell in love with him.” And she a married lady at that. The general program for a week-end is as follows: An indoor game festival Saturday afternoon for boys and girls, old as well as young; an entertainment Saturday night at which some most astonishing stunts are performed (Jimmy Stevens almost wrecked a town hall one night with his shooting gallery act); addresses in the church or churches on Sunday morning, and talks to boys and men on Sunday afternoons. If the party remains over Sunday night there are more exhortations or possibly the evening is given over to social pleasures. There is a great opportunity on Sunday to do personal work with the boys of the neighborhood. Some we might mention seem to think it more important to do personal work with th(‘ girls, but these are only the more self-sacrificing of the delegates. Page, one hundred and Ihirly The delegation is entertained in the homes of the town. The people are always most cordial and hospitable. Sometimes the ways of the country are a trifle cml arrassing to the cityd)red men. Guy Winston Churchill, of the broad vest, was one who hjiind it especially hard to understand country methods. He failed entirely to get the Yankee point of view, and they didn’t get his when he got up and announced that he would now “play Chopin’s Nocturne in F-llat.’’ Of all the deputationers Harry Kingman the Im{)erturbable, hard to knock and hard to beat, is perhaps most in demand. For ability to reach the hearts of the elderly ladies of a community Fv Cameron and Alva John Rhines easily take flrst place. As for IFll Patey, well — he can reach most anyljod ' . But to be serious, deputation trips are most valuable to the men who make the trip as well as the [)eoj)le they entertain and insiiire. The folks are glad to come into contact with college spirit and the happ ' -go-lucky ways of college men. They receive new ideas and impressions, and there is a break in the monotony of their lives, so largely made uj) of routine. Many boys especially come close to influences that have a large part in moulding their lives for better things. As for the meml)ers of the deputa- tion, incalculable good comes to them from the active engagement in social service of a high type. A man with talents can use them in no better way nor give himself more real fun than by going on a deputation trij). In all probability the student l)ody of no other educational institution of our own size in the country does as much practical Christian service as does that of our own college. True as this is, there is yet no end of room for improvement along the lines of greater efticiency in methods, and a more altruistic and unselfish spirit in the carrying out of the service. The past year has shown marked improvement both in the efticiency and the spirit with which our work has been done. That this improvement may continue, the present religious work committee, as it makes way for the incoming officers, earnestly asks the co-operation of every man in college in the making of the religious work of the coming year more vital and whole- some than ever before, that the religious program of Springfield College may steadily grow in power and usefulness. The principal features of the program carried out under the direction of the religious committee have been the following; the providing of leader- ship for the Freshman prayer meetings at the beginning of the Fall Term; the sending out of deputation teams to surrounding communities; the conducting of special meetings on the Day of Prayer for Colleges; and the supplying of speakers for religious meetings throughout New England. Page one Jmndred and thirty one JlisiSion tub0 |C®-;7 | ■ For the second time in the history c f onr colle- giate records, a place in the ’ear l)ook has been reserved hjr the brief account of onr nhssionar} ' activities here. This indicates an awareness of such actix’ities that is unusual in an ’ college, and would seem to prophesy- a larger place for missions in our future ccdlege program. In these da s when almost the whole world is in the throes of a mighty issue and when there are exhibiticms ( f awful race hatred everywhere, it is indeed refreshing to read from time to time about the other side of the stor ' . In distant lands a few noble souls are l)ravely upholding the ideals of love, mercy, and sacrifice, and are introducing those things that are constructive and that make for a world-brotherhood. For this very reason our students are turning their thcnights to other lands where these noble missionar ’ enterprises are lieing carried on, and much inspiration has come to us liecause of it. During the j ast ’ear a special Foreign Wcu ' k Institute was held for two days and was followed by a mission study camiiaign, with the idea of present- ing t(j the men the claims that foreign service had upon them, and to definitely tie up to the study of some book on the subject. Six Mission StLid ’ C ' lasses were organized, and the results have been gratiD ing. One of our number has left his native land to take up work in the Fhilipidnc ' s, and a few others are also considering such an investment of their lives in Hher lands. We of all men should be up-to-date, and the jiresent age demands of us such minds as will include all countries in the range ' of our thenight and interest. We have been thinking in these world terms, and the accomplishments of brave men who have gone out to cemntries where galling conditions have brought out the finest elements of their characters’ possibilities have been spurring us on to noliler effort and to greater self-sacritic( ' in the interests of humanity. Page one hundred and thirty tivo iBopg’ ®23iorb Seminar The students who are especially interested in Hoys’ Work in its l)roadest sense have not been idle during th e past year. The greatness of the task before the men after graduation, the opportunities (jf moulding the life of the future, and the necessity of every worker securing the best pcjssible preparation, have l een realized Ity all. The Bo s’ Work Seminar endea jrs, by providing speakers and chances f(jr oi)en discussion, to aid those men who are expecting to give their li -es to some f(jrm of work with bo s an opportunity to get into touch with various asj ccts of the work. Professor C ' heney has this ear, as l)ef(we, given liberalh’ (d his tinu and thought in helping provide suitable speakers to address the Seminar from time to time. That he has succeeded in the past ear needs onl - to Ite proved by a glance through the i)arlial list below. The officers for the past year have been as follows: — R. M. Jones, President M. A.

Association Architect r Page one hundred and thirty three iSormal IKorfe To put into practice the theory received in the class room is the purpose of the required and voluntary ' Normal Work done by the students of Spring- field College. The emphasis placed in the curriculum on the social sciences makes actual work with actual conditions imi)crativc to the man who aspires to be a leader of social reform movements in his future field. The same applies to the leading of gym classes, the cc aching of athletic teams, the teaching (T Sunday school classes, and the administration of various clubs and organizations, in college and out. It is inq)ossible to (jverestimate the value of this normal work among the boys of Springfield alone, without taking into account the work among adults in surrounding towns and communities, and the thousands reached by the deimtation work of a strictly religious nature. Hundreds of boys attend the weekly games of the Sunday School Athletic League, played in our (nvn W est C ' lymnasium, and so c(jme into contact with our students and ar(‘ inlliumced by them. N( arly evcTy Sunday schocd in Springfield and a large majority of sch(j(ds in the outlying towns have their Ix ys’ or young men’s classes taught by Springfield students. Inestimable gcxxl has come from this work in the past and th(‘ future holds still wid(“r possibilities for the college.

As one peruses the records he finds that from this humble beginning as The Springfield Student, which was made possible by a grant of four hundred dollars from the Student Association, the college magazine has grown through successix e stages to its present status as a full-fledged separate publication. Page one hundred and thirty five nurin; the ] ast ear The Springfield Student has Ijeen receiving al)le sup|)ort from all departments, and, in spite of the tendency on the part ot some to let the editorial board do the work, many helpful and interesting articles, written by men who ha e found such effort worth while, have l)een j)nblished. Other articles written in lighter ein ha e been contril)Uted to its Images and ha e added to the general character of the magazine, while the bright pages from Mr. Modeler’s able pen ha ■e far outclassed fnmi every |)oint of iew the illustrations in other New Kngland college magazines. In financial matters, the Student is in fine condition. The efforts ot Mr. Ferris have made possible the granting of a special fund by the Student Association, for the purpose of clearing up a deheit of long standing, so that the new administration recei ed the liooks with all bills paid, and a Milficient amount of money on hand to co ' er the cost of this } ' ear’s pub- lications. W hile the need for a new system ot choosing the editorial lioartl is very e ' ident in order to create new general interest on the part of all students in the magazine, it is felt that with this firm financial basis and the possibilities of de ' elo])ing latent talent, The Springfield Student should grow, as it deser es to, to become the best college magazine in New England.

The schedule was the hardest that any team here has ever had to face, l)ut notwithstanding this fact, and the additional handicap of having but three of the 1914 letter men (jn the squad. Captain Cooper and his merry men set out to make a name for themselves and most of all for the college. The two games which arc always looked forward to with the greatest antic ipation and interest each ’ear, as every student and alumnus knows, are the Holy Cross and Mass. Aggie games. dctca ' y is equally desirable tcj both j)arties, the rivalry l)eing very keen indeed. All efforts are made tcj have the men of l)oth teams in the pink of condition fcjr these contests. The game last fall with Holy Cross was a battle throughout, and it may well be imagined that not a little uneasiness was present among the small band of roc.)tcrs that accompanied the team to WOrcester. In the second pericjcl, however, Sermcm was given the ball, and with his characteristic speed} ' dodging succeeded in breaking through the entire Holy Cross team for a touchdown. He alscj kicked the goal. This was the one and only touchdown made in the entire game, and as a result our new troph}’ case will con tain a beautifully decorated football with the score, 7-0, thereon. 4 ' h(“ “Aggie” game was one of the best and mcjst exciting played cm Pratt h ' icTl in many years. Springfield had won from the Amherst team for six consecutive years, and the Aggies came down with a mighty deter- minatiem to break the string of victories. This they did, the final score Page one hundred and thirty eight being 14-13, in their favor. Both teams played magnihcent ball, before the largest crowd of the season. Dr. McCurdy solved the problem of stopping the “Aggie Shift’’ by the almost impenetrable wall of Captain Cooper’s men, but the ability in forward passing that the Amherst boys displayed came as a surprise to our men. It was this that enabled the Aggies to return victorious. Our game with Yale was third on the schedule. W’e had l)eaten Middle- bury and Holy Cross, so there was naturally some degree of conhdence and even hope on the part of the Springheld men, and a large delegation journeyed l)y auto truck to New Haven to express the enthusiasm they felt. The sjDirit of the men who took this trip, their cheering and singing, all made a great impression on the crowd at the Yale Bowl, the harmony of the singing even exciting press comment. Many times the hopes of Spring- field rose to touchdown height, and well might it l)e so, for more than once the ball was within striking distance of the line. Yale, however, tightened in the critical places, and we were unable to get a figure in the scoring column. The final score of 19-0 was far from being a poor showing against one of the largest universities in the country. This same fighting spirit followed the team through the entire s eason, every game being played with the same determination to fight it out even though against odds, and Springfield is proud of the 1915 team. If any one man more than another stood out for exceptional playing, it was “Ug’’ Page one hundred and thirty nine Pai c one hundred and forty Sermon, the fleet Missourian. His shifty work in running off forward passes through all kinds of coml)inations was one of the joys of the season. He was elected captain for the year of 1916. The Te. m (k A. Cooper, Captain L. R.

It is true that the scores show that they wcm but one game, but to offset this fact a few words may be said, not as an alibi, but as an explanation. To win games a machine is necessary and the “Scrubs” had no time for perfecting a machine, their task being an exceedingly important one. Each week a new set of signals and style of play were used, all to prepare the arsity for any attack to which they would be subjected in the following game. Thus in trying to save the Varsity, the “Scrubs” lost an opportunity to become what they might have been. They are to be congratulated on the fact that they defeated Williston and that Hotchkiss w(m only because the “Scrubs” failed in attempting to kick goals after touchdowns. In explanation of this dehciency we only quote C(jach Berry, who immediately after the game said, “I did not think you would have an opportunity to kick a goal.” In reviewing the season, i)leasant memories, connected with different trips and games, are sure to Ije recalled and when candidates are called for at the oj)cning of the 1916 football season, each “Scrub” will 1)C found on Pratt Field wcjrking for a j)lace on the Varsity team.

Professor Schroeder more than upheld his reputation and should be congratulated on his success. With his keen attention the polished work of the team was possible. The drills and dances were composed l)y Captain Esbjornson, assisted by C(jach Schroeder. The program was well balanced this year, those in charge having in mind the i)leasing of an audience as well as tlenion- strating the more advanced gymnastic work. d ' hrough graduation there were hnir acancies this year. ff. H. flilde- brand,’lb, C. K. florton, T8, L. J. Judd, ' 18, and L. (h Kranz, T7, were th(‘ men to fpialify for the team with the following eterans: A.W. Globisch, ’16, J. IT Aliddaugh, ’17, H. Roberts, ’17, K. IT Ra ’mond, ’16, Manager R. IT Peterson, ’16, and CTii)tain R. A. Icsbjornson, ’17. The nu-n c-arly in October started faithful training and were ready for their first exhibition in I)c“ceinbc‘r. The object ot the team work this ear was to make each movemeut a beautiful iiicture to be jileasing to the eye, and consc(|ueut ly soinc ' what simjiler work was done, with just as ellective J age one hundred and forty four results. The team was fortunate in having L. J. Judd as one of its members. A little bit of an Australian, small in stature though large in quality, he came to us as ex-champion club swinger and j erformed .some wonderful fancy club swinging that was much apj reciated. Two new numbers were added to the program this ear: a hand-to-hand balancing act by K. B. Raymond, under man, and A.W. Globisch, a German make, doing the aerial part of the work; and a tumbling act l)y H. H. Hildebrand and C. FT Horton, known by the team members as Mutt and Jeff, Hildebrand being .some six feet (d protoplasm and Horton a little over five feet. Both of these numbers added much to the i)rogram, giving an interesting variation. Manager Peterson has done splendid work this year. His schedule was one of the best imaginable, exhibiting in all of the larger cities of the East. The quality of the work the team does is readily understood when it exhibits in siu ' h associations as Boston and the Brooklyn Gentral, now the largest as.sociations in the world. An iinfitation was extended by the Yale Association to hold a dual exhil)ition with their gymnastic team at Yale and our boys, to say the least, held their own. Much credit and appreciation must be extended to F. Dahlgrcn, T7, pianist, for his splendid work at the piano. All the work is done to music, many changes of time are necessary, and so the pianist must have extraor- dinary abilit ' . Charlie “has talent” when it comes to meeting these needs! The appreciation of Captain Esbjorn.son ' s work was shown f y the co-operation of each member in his faithfid practice while the rough bumps were l)eing smoothed off. The captainc ' of this team requires more work than an}’ other of our college sj)orts and demands a man of ability and experience. The men that are fortunate enough to make this team gain a great experience by doing .so much traveling, coming in contact with .so many different people, as well as gaining experience from the different associations in having the oi)portunit}’ of witnessing the work that is l.)eing conducted. The men are surely much better fitted for the physical directorship b ' this acquaintance. L. J. Judd, T8, was elected captain, and L. (7. Kranz, T7, as manager for 1916-17. W’e extend our congratulations to them and wish them success in their tasks for the coming year. May the standards of the team be as high, the ciuality of work be even better, and may its members carry with them the true spirit ot Old Springfield and the character of the Ghristian physical director!

Pane one hundred and forty six ■ arsiitp hotter tEeam The prospects for a winning soccer team were not very bright at the beginning of the season, there being only four men left of the former year’s team. There were, however, four of last year’s second team men in school. The four varsity men, around whom Coach Aftleck had to build his team, were Captain Rossetti, Bird, Roberts, and Tichenor. Of these, three were half backs and one a lineman. At the first call some forty or fifty candidates responded. Included in this group were several promising Freshmen and Prcj:)s, as well as the last year’s second string men. After several weeks of hard practice Professor Affieck was al)lc to select a team which looked good. The first game was with Yale on October 16. There the team played fine soccer, defeating the Kli 5-2. In this game the team showed a strong defense, and a fine scoring machine. Particularly was this true of Bunker and Cameron. The second game was with the strong Harvard team, and Springfield lost, 7-0. The game was a closer one than the score would seem to indicate. Our team was greatly handicapped by the injury to Bunker in the early part of the game. This injury kept him out of the game for the rest of the season. The next scheduled game was with Dartmouth at Hanover. In this game Springfield showed remarkable team work, time and again carrying the ball down the field by quick short passes. The win was an easy one, by the score of 6-0. It was Dartmouth’s first X’arsity Soccer game, and a large crowd of rooters gathered to witness it. Page one hundred and forty seven The last game was with Worcester Academy, which we won, 6-0. In this game the same brand of team play was exhib,ited, both offensive and defensi e playing hue l)all. d ' he Worcester game completed what the team considers an exceptionally hne record, having won three and lost one. The team was fortunate in ha ing as a leader a player of extraordinary ability. Captain F ' elix Rossetti.

This record was not due to an easy schedule as much as to abundant material at the beginning of the season and to excellent team work throughout. The hardest and best game of the season was the last on the schedule played at Williston against their strong team. In this game, overtime play w as necessary, the score at the end of the second period standing at one-all. Two minutes more of fast work ended in a clever pass from Reid to Mann, who succeeded in putting through the winning “boot.” The team had an able captain in Ernest Benatre, and due credit must be given to J. E. Eowler for his managerial as well as scoring abilit} ' . The second team has a right to feel that it has made a real contribution to the college athletic life, in training its men so well to take varsity positions next fall.

Coach Johnson issued a call for candidates shortly after the football season closed and a large squad reported. Nearly all the old men were back and, with the large squad of new men reporting, it was a hard job to pick a first team; but a fast bunch was soon rounded into shape. Every man this year had to fight for a place on the team and not a man was sure of his position, as was shown by the number of second team men added to the first team before the season closed. No individual honors can be given any one man, as ever ' man on the team played hard and fast liasketball and all worked together as a team. The team did not seem to hit its stride until the West Point game, which we won, and from then on we won every game on the schedule. The outlook for next year’s team is very bright. W ith Bigler as a leader and the entire second team back, we should have as good a team representing the college as that of this season. The Team E. H. Burnham I. E. Bigler E. H. K. Ellis L. E.

Through the admission of the College Seconds into the Connecticut Valley League the opportunity for much valuable practice was immediately furnished, and the fact that our lads finished second in the league standing reflects much credit upon them and upon the coach, J. F. Miller. The team this year had an able captain in W. C. Parker, who set an example for the entire team in fast, clean playing. The other members of the team are: — W. C. Parker, Captain Fb B.

Only two meets were staged this year, one with the Trinity team and the other with our beloved rivals. Mass. Aggies. In both these meets, as will be seen by the score below, Springfield showed that in this branch of sport she is to be reckoned with seriously. The team this year was captained by R. B.

This winter, with the new rink on Pratt Field, prospects for a full season looked much brighter than in former years when the lake was used. The fine schedule was completely undone as far as the home games were concerned, due to the January thaw, which destroyed the surface completely. The schedule called for five games away: Williams, West Point, Rensse- laer, Mass. Aggies, and M. I. T. ; and four home games, Columbia, M. I. T., Aggies, and Trinity. Poor ice conditions made it impossible to play West Point, Rensselaer, Columbia, and M. I. T. With five of the 1915 team, and several substitutes as a nucleus, a strong team was assured. The first game at Williams showed a lack of team play. In the second half Springfield came back with the “punch,” outplaying her opponents, l)ut was unable to overcome the big lead. Score, 5-2. The second game, against the Mass. Aggies, was one to delight the heart of the most ardent hockey enthusiast. Springfield caged the first goal, and kept the lead for three-quarters of the game, when the score was tied. In the remaining few minutes of play the rubber was rushed back and forth by both teams in a final effort to break the tie. Honors were evenly divided, until the last two minutes, when the Aggies got in some clever team work, and put two in. Score, 3-1. A few weeks later the teams met again, but neither team was up to form. Snow prevented fast hockey, and the final score was Aggies 5 — Springfield 2.

Many is the time, too, that when outwardly it has meant the smaller score for him, it has none the less s[)elled ictor ' to his inner and higher nature. Pre-eminently a gentleman’s game, the time often comes in the heat of a close match when the decision rests with himself alone. The judges had not seen. His opponent could not know.

Swift comes the response, “Touche!” The fencer must first of all he a gentleman.

Under the able leadership of Coach Affleck, the few available men were moulded into a strong combination which gave battle to its opponents in true Springfield style. The season came to hand with four of the last year’s team out for further honors: Brown, Evans, Kruidenier, and Captain Jouannet. These men, with the addition of Robert Long, a new man, proved to be quite a speedy set of natators. Starting in with Andover, Springheld redeemed herself for the defeats of the two previous years, winning 40 to 13. Things now looked encouraging, Springheld’s Swimming Team having won its hrst victory since the sport was established in the college. The next event was a home exhibition which the boys put on to equip the team with suits. The audi- ence was large and well pleased as well as remunerative. The next victims in line were from Williamstown. The hnal score of the meet held in our pool was Springheld 38, Williams 12. The following meet was a reverse for our team, the score being a close one, ’orcester 29, Springheld 24. Although alibis are always fashionable in a defeat and we had several, we must pass them by and give the academy boys credit for the good team which they had. The next meet was in our home pool again, this time with Harvard. The Crimson hsh from Cambridge proved weak at our hands and the hnal score read, Springheld 37, Harvard 16. The season closed at Wesleyan University, where we were defeated 28 to 24. The meet was held under protest and it was felt that had there been more experienced and competent judging, Springheld would have had the advantage of the very close margin.

While we received the small end of the score in the three dual meets, the majority of the bouts were lost by a small margin, due largely to inexperience in the intercollegiate style of wrestling. Injuries and the evils attendant upon “making weight’’ also hindered the best work and development of the team. The year was marked by the organization of the New England Inter- collegiate Wrestling Association, with a membership (jf five colleges, namely, Harvard, ale, Technology, Brown, and Springfield. The first champion- ship meet of the association was held at Harvard on March 4th, and included entries from Tufts and Bates.

Idider Coach Berry’s able direction, the team was moulded into Class A perfection with skill and striking rapidity. This led the students to believe that they would have only a championship team representing “Old Springfield’’ on the diamond. This fact was proved after the initial game with Wesleyan, resulting in a 9-2 victory for our boys. More baseltall fans were developed after this victory than have e ’er been known in the history of baseball in Springfield C’ollege. The men of the infield developed into a most wonderful combination, real leaguers, handling the ball with accuracy and speed, and furnishing one of the best machines ever developed on Pratt Field. The outfield, as well, held uj) their end of the responsibility and gave us all they had, especially when it came to batting near the .200 mark. To our pitchers, Eddy, Lang, Souders, and Townley, we raise our hats in remembrance of the happy da s gone by. Captain Fountain truly deserved all honors l)estowed upon him during the season and especially on returning from West Point with the Army’s “goat,” after defeating them 7-6. A heavy schedule of fifteen games made up the season. On the day of the game with Trinity, however, rain played upon the diamonds with such force and endurance that it was necessary to cancel the game. It is only fair to mention the fact that the season ended with ten balls to be decorated and placed in the new trophy case as a remembrance of the team that represented us so splendidly in 1915.

With a somewhat longer schedule than has been the rule and with at least four of the eight games against teams of recognized high standing, they came through the season with eight straight victories, — a unique achievement for this institution. Perhaps the game around which the greatest interest centered was that with the Yale Freshmen at New Haven. With one out in the eighth inning a “squeeze” was successfully worked which gave S})ringfield the game, 1-0. Later, in a great “batting bee” at Dartmouth against the Freshman team, Springheld won out 11-9. They also took two games from W’illiston Seminar ’, which had in turn defeated Yale Freshmen earlier in the season. The home game was won by a single tally; the game at Williston was won by a larger score. The success of the season may be attributed to the wealth of material from which to pick and to the e.xcellent team play developed during the season. Page one hundred and sixty five I. I ' .

Williams was chosen captain l)y the meml)crs of the team competing with the local V. M. C. A. the year l)efore.

The hrst meet was held with Colby College at W’ater ' ille, Maine. Springheld was de- feated 79 3 points to 46 points. Ten of the eleven men sent to the Alaine College by C ' oach Schroeder secured points, however, demonstrating real Springfield ability, and the possibilities of a larger team. The home meet with Trinity College proved more successful, 76 points being secured by the Springfield men as against 49 by Trinity. In the last meet of the season, the Springfield Association had many good “old timers’’ pitted against our boys. Their long “lay off’’ jirevented them from doing much damage to the college ranks.
