Page Twenty-eight 7 hALCYO N The Swarthmore Alumni Association SINCE 1875 the Alumni Association has been the tie that binds all the graduates of the college irrespective of membership in the smaller alumni clubs. Alumni Day is the one day in the year when every group is united and the emphasis is laid on class reunions rather than fraternity or club reunions. Interested at all times in promoting the college welfare, the Alumni Association finds its greatest outlet in the Commencement Week Activities. Last year a buffet supper and business meeting were held on Alumni Eve. Saturday, Alumni Day saw special reunions of ' 76, ' 81, ' 86, ' 91, ' 96, ' 01, ' 06, ' 11, ' 16, ' 21, and ' 24. Some reunion classes had special luncheons. Fol- lowing the reunion there was the usual parade in costumes of the period. The Alumni Supper was held in the college dining room that evening with the graduating class as guests of honor. On the opposite side of the dining room, a less hilarious but just as loyal group was celebrating its fiftieth anni- versary with a huge cake, decorated with candles. The Supper broke up after the singing of college songs. So does the oldest of all Swarthmore Clubs serve to bring back with renewed interest those who have passed their college days forever.

At the meetings held three times a year, interest is stimulated in constructive plans for aiding and improving the college. The Club regularly contributes to the Bureau of Occupations, which aids college women to obtain advantageous positions. The New York and Philadelphia alumnae have combined in raising money for an open scholarship for women. The Club is actively engaged in aiding the endowment for the Women ' s Student Building.

I t holds a luncheon on the first Wednesday of each month, at which time the members are addressed by prominent speakers. Matters pertaining to the best interests of Swarthmore are considered at these meetings, and recommendations are often made to the President of the College and the Board of Managers. The Club enjoys a membership of approximately two hundred and twenty-five. This year according to custom, the Club held the annual Swarthmore dinner at the Bellevue-Stratford Hotel on Saturday, March 26th. Several hundred alumni from Philadelphia attended the dinner which proved a decided success. OFFICERS FOR 1926-27 President George H. Brooke, ' 93 Vice-President Claude C.

Hutchinson, ' 22 re=: J alcyon The S varthmore Club of New York ONE of the college ' s oldest alumni organizations is the Swarthmore Club of New York, which, at present, has a membership of more than one hundred and fifty. The Club functions largely as a social organization. A smoker was held early this year when Mr. Wilson Powell, Dr. Philip Hicks and Dr. E. LeRoy Mercer recounted the latest Swarthmore news and explained plans for the future of the college. Two more get-togethers are planned for the coming year. OFFICERS FOR 1926-27 President Fred N.

Jackson, ' 21 The Swarthmore Women ' s Club of New York TEN years ago the Women ' s Club of New York was organized with the purpose of keeping the Swarthmore alumnae in touch with the college and of promoting its interest and support whenever possible. The club now has a paid membership of over one hundred. A luncheon is held in the fall when some representative from Swarthmore is invited to bring the club the latest news. A Tea and Business Meeting are held in the spring. The Club contributes fifty dollars annually to the support of the Alumnae open scholarship.

It began as a Club of Chicago Alumni, but soon expanded to include in its membership all graduates and former students of Swarthmore College who resided west of the Allegheny Mountains. An annual meeting and banquet is held in Chicago during the early part of each year, and noon-day luncheons are held from time to time upon special an- nouncement. In 1906 the Club decided to offer a scholarship to Swarthmore College. The purpose of the scholarship was three-fold: (1) to stimulate interest in Swarthmore College and her ideals among residents of the western states; (2) to promote the best interests of Swarthmore College by sending to her campus students of well-rounded character and ability who would carry with them the spirit and ideals of the west; and (3) to create for the Club itself a unifying interest and a worthwhile purpose. Funds for the scholarship are accumulated by voluntary subscriptions of club members. The plan has o perated with marked success for twenty years, and selection as a Western Swarthmore Club Scholar has become an outstanding honor. OFFICERS FOR 1926-27 President Harry A.

Since then the membership of the club has steadily increased. Two regular meetings are held a year, a banquet in January and a picnic in mid- summer. All Swarthmoreans visiting in California at the time of these gatherings are expected to attend. OFFICERS FOR 1927 President Samuel Duncan Yeo, ex. - ' 99 Vice-President Fred G.

He will always be remembered for his ability and proficiency in making himself heard and felt during Freshman parties. The fact that Carl is a Junior is largely responsi- ble for the cockiness of this year ' s Freshmen. Carl comes from Newark, but most people think he comes from York — when in reality that is only his second home. It ' s she that lives in York. ARTHUR GORHAM BAKER A T 1767 Lanier Place, Washington, D.C. BIOLOGY Everybody knows Art. He just naturally has his place, and it is a pretty big place at that. He ' s only six feet four, but manages to hold his own with the bigger fellows. Art is heading for a medical degree, and by the way he ' s working now, we ail expect to see him get it with flying colors. He spends most of his afternoons playing with Dr. Palmer ' s pet specimens. But after that he always finds time to go out and get some exercise, throwing the plate around. In- cidentally, he holds the Middle Atlantic States Record in the Discus Throw. Don ' t misunderstand Art when he says he approves of the Deane of Swafthmore College. , - ALCYOIN ELSIE BATTIN 530 E. Johnson Street, Germantown, Pa. LATIN Elsie spent much time and energy Fresh- man year answering the question, Are you Ike Battin ' s sister? Considering that she has distinguished herself by keeping up the family tradition in getting all Alphas and Betas, she has firmly established her identity by now. Moreover, she can answer im- portant questions on Mr. Drew ' s Reverse English Courses, and make any Latin veto mind its conjugation. We are, indeed, be- ginning to wonder whether the dead lan- guages aren ' t really alive when we see Elsie ' s classical club. But aside from studying the education and culture of the ancients, she is well versed on modern mankind and its man- nerisms, for she is making an exhaustive col- lection of the signs and symbols of a nearby university. If you pass by Elsie ' s ro om some day stop in and see her choice assortment of Princeton banners, pillows, and what have EDNA GERTRUDE BEACH A r 421 E. Broad Street, Chester, Pa. POLITICAL SCIENCE Eddie is one of these lucky girls with a suitable nickname. Doesn ' t Eddie suggest a happy, good-natuted, cheerful gay person to you? Well, if it doesn ' t now, it always will after you have known Eddie Beach. And talking of luck, some people have all of it. Eddie has riotously curly hair that is the object of admiration of all the men, and the object of envy of all the unnaturally- curly co-eds. Eddie is an exception to the saying that curly hair flourishes above a vacuum. Anyone who has any classes with her will swear to that. 3 ALCYO r ISABELLE MAY BENNETT J II 131 Watchung Avenue, Montclair, N. J. ENGLISH While most of the rest of us are sitting quietly, we ' re just looking off into the dis- tance, but when Isabelle isn ' t talking she ' s thinking, and when we chatter and waste time, she ' s getting her work done. Isabelle hides her thoughts in an interesting way. She makes us wonder what goes on behind her big brown eyes. We can guess that there is enough, if marks are any indication. Someone once said that A friend in need is a friend indeed. As with all other things, there are many degrees of friendship. But Isabelle ' s kind is deep and lasting — the kind that makes life worth while. HAROLD SILVER BERRY K 2 Moylan, Pa. CHEMISTRY As the sun was struggling to rise over the town of Swarthmore, young Harold Berry trudged the Asphaltum on his ascent to Col- lege where he would astound gray-haired professors with a mighty show of knowledge. The crisp air radiated with his innocuous grin, as he contemplated those conquests near at hand. Then, early-rising co-eds, eager for a glimpse of the lad, would be seated at their windows. After classes, Wharton sessions sparkling with his wit, or more serious activities in the Phoenix and the A. A. office would claim his attention. What a vivid contrast the glow of this youth showed to the meager rising of the- i ALCYOmi CAROLINE COOPER BIDDLE K A 9 Laurel Avenue, Mount Vernon, New York HISTORY Caroline, of Laurel Brook, fully as de- lightful and happy-sounding a title as Rebecca, of Sunnybrook Farm. And behind the name, a girl who can entertain happy house parties of friends, who can skate and swim and theatre with them, and smile all the while between; then go abroad and leave these friends for the summer, and still be happy at ease, camping with Austrian girls and boys by the mountains near Vienna. Even looking what we might call typically Catolinean, with the golden- brown btaids, and picturesque blue bodice and skirt. Eagerly welcomed back to College for her juHior year, a busy Caroline is seen, for all tooYshort a time to talk to, since she reads f r h6nots now. We have been thinking, tHbugh, how glad we ' d truly be, if Crum ' ' reek were called Laurel Brook, art wguld leave with us its Caroline. ELLIS GRAHAM BISHOP K Swarthmore, Pa. ENGLISH HONORS Yes, little Freshman, that is El Bishop. He does look just like anybody else, doesn ' t he? Yes, even the greatest of men are lim- ited by resembling their contemporaries to a certain degree. You mustn ' t stare at him so hard, though. That is what all the girls do and you don ' t want to be called a sissy, do you now.- Why does he look so cheerful? That is because he has so many nice things to think about. For instance, he has his foot- ball team, his lacrosse team, his Halcyon, his Portfolio, and oh, lots of other things. Of course, he ' ll be president of the United States. Don ' t be silly. HALCYON VAN LEER ILL BOND K S State Road and Lansdowne Ave, Upper Darby, Pa. ECONOMICS Van returned to College in the autumn of 1926 and settled down in D Section. But outside forces (force would be the correct term, the Campus Cut-up says) exerted their pull upon him. Consequently, he has ele- vated or degenerated into a day student. This state, extremely desirable in his case, gives us less glimpses of him than we had formerly. Yet he occasionally circles the in- door track; not to be ready when transporta- tion fails on cold mornings, as many think, but to keep in form for fall and spring sports. Such assiduity cannot help but reap its own reward. JOSEPHINE SCULL BORNET X O 38 Aberdale Road, Bala, Pa. SPANISH Where is she going. ' We don ' t quite know.

VINCENT GILPIN BUSH K Riverton, N. J. ENGLISH HONORS When we began to write something for the Halcyon about Alice we thought of all the different things we could say — that she was always dressed in perfect taste, that she lived in New York, that she had a Packard car, that she was an honors student, that she was always making a flying visit home. But after we had thought of all by turns we knew that they were only an outer shell of the real Alice. Alice reads every new book and sees every new play that appears. Added to that she has traveled the world over. As a conse- quence, she can talk intelligently and inter- estingly on any subject. Is it any wonder that Alice is as fascinating as she is? But there is still something that we haven ' t s4jd:::rthething that really counts. Alice has thkTrate quality — charm. ENGINEERING Of course, it all started Freshman year when Vin told the president of student gov- ernment that as far as he was concerned he could go to student govetnment meetings. Since then he has widened his scope, and now the whole college knows just where it rates, as far as he is concerned. He doesn ' t limit his caustic execrations to verbal effu- sions alone, however, and wields a fearsome lacrosse stick and soccer shoe to the dire mis- fortune of our more confident opponents. He also condescends to put in an occasional appearance at a college dance, and was once known to speak to someone when he passed him on the campus. It later turned out to be Prexy. The president always was lucky that way. Although ' Vin has been telling us where to go for the last three years as far as he is concerned, we ' ll be glad to make the journey because we know he ' ll be there, and then natutally, we ' ll all have a good time. ABNER LINCOLN CASTLE K Croton Road, Wayne, Pa. ECONOMICS The thing that Link does best, as our rival colleges know only too well, is play football. It is said that he showed great promise of developing into a star punter while still a very young child, when he loved to exercise his right foot on his Dad ' s shins. Link lost no time in starting his college gridiron career. As a Freshman, he starred for the scrubs. The next two seasons he held down a regular quarterback job, and did it so well that he was elected captain of Swarthmore ' s pigskin warriors for the com- ing season. His great work in the last Rutgers game will never be forgotten by those who witnessed the struggle. Castle ' s life off the football field is one of studious endeavor (see note 4, pa e 76, ' Vol. 2). JULIA VANDERVEER CHAPMAN A r 731 Harvard Avenue, Swarthmore, Pa.

LOUIS KETTERLINUS CLOTHIER K Wynne wood. Pa. MATHEMATICS HONORS Behold, the champeen knock-taker of Swarthmore College. We maintain that our hero can nonchalantly stand more physical inconvenience than any other man on the campus. For example, when Lou broke his arm last fall while cavorting on the local gridiron, the first thing he said was, It ' s going to be d n monotonous to carry this thing around all the time. In short, he is what one might call a brute for pun- ishment. Beside the aforementioned disastrous ten- dency to play the gridiron game, Lou can be seen almost any afternoon after football sea- son taking his customary four or five mile,- ' constitutional, conditioning himself for rradL.- Without doubt it is this training which also enables him to hold his lively pace among the debutarites, ,i x X - v ALCYOTT I !• ' JAMES HAMILTON COLKET.

SOCIAL SCIENCE HONORS When Jack matriculated at Swarthmore, and took up his residence in F Section, he was a rough and ready man from Noo Joisey. In his Freshman year, he was al- ways one of the staunchest supporters, in the old F section arguments (very heated), of the merits of his native state against those of Pennsylvania. To show that his state de- velops athletes, he has become quite profi- cient at soccer, and this year won his letter. Reds always had a delicate knack of finding hidden food. There used to be two, and only two, ways to profit by eatables in those olden days of Freshman lore. Either food had to be eaten before Reds got wind of it, or our hero had to be fed until he could eat no more. But alas and alack, he is no longer a he-man from across the Delaware — he ' s an Honors student. OLIVE VIRGINIA DEANE X U 100 Poplar Street, Ridley Park, Pa.

WALTER FREDERICK DENKHAUS Colwyn, Pa. ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING Walt is another one of our conscien- tious young engineers. Much of his time is spent in trying to convince certain of his pro- fessors of the workability of his new meth- ods of solving their construction problems. Recently, however, Walt put one over on us. We find that, much to our dismay, Sat- urday nights are commanding much of his attention. Two years have passed in the com- pletion of this radical change, but the effect seems to be as permanent as the Saturday nights. It is not generally known that Walt is a track star. You should see his feet fly from Wharton to the station just after the 5.10 pulls in. A flash, coat tails flying in the wind, and he is gone.

Last year Jack proved he was a one man track team, when necessary, by winning the decid- ing event in the Middle Atlantics. Then, too, Jack is the speediest man on the foot- ball squad and a whiz at circling the ends, which explains why he is such a favorite with the football rooters. ,«= x ■ X- - :J ■S£H3i= u ' P ge Eighty-one EMMA PEASLEE ENGLE Clarksboro, N.

But Swarthmore ' s classics are not yet writ- . ten, and those who have a major interest in mo dern and ancient lore know that when the name Diane is translated it means the ideal of modesty, grace, and maidenly vigor, a being identified by long dark tresses equipped for all manner of work and sport. In winter, guardian of the frozen lake, grace- ful in form and free of movement, she skates with some swift companion. Or weary of the chase, she turns back to classic lore, to histories long, or songs and dancing — for the song and ukulele are dear to her. And literary scrolls bearing her name testify that like the fair-crowned queen of the echoing chase, though blithe and gra- cious, she is by no means a frivolous person- age. Protectress of out conduct, mistress of temperance in all things, we sing to her name; Bless us then with wished sight Goddess excellently bright. Page Eighty-jo THOMAS H. LATIMER FOSTER 6 S 11 Beaver, Pa. ECONOMICS Probably, until you looked above, you were not aware of the fact that Tommy comes from Beaver, made famous by Beaver College and its number of dog licenses. Tom is not one to take mattets seriously, for he scoffs at his home town, lessons and Miss Bronk. As his ambition is to be a Senator, he has al- ready purchased his campaign hat. Intimate friends speak of him as being steady, sentimental and sleuth-like. To bal- ance these qualities there are such failings as slapping people on the back, and playing a radical game of bridge. Two or more years of college and Harvard Law School should overcome these lapses. MARTHA GIBBONS X 4 Ardsley Road, Highland Park, Pa. Energetic, Efficient — That ' s the Martha of her!

SOCIAL SCIENCE HONORS George is well known around college for his serious countenance and his powerful voice. He is not at all hesitant about using this latter quality, and almost any time after seminar hours it (the voice) may be heard booming through the dorm. As you may have guessed by this time, bulling is a favorite occupation with this young gentle- man. As a glib and convincing orator he is the Dean ' s only rival. This big voice is also put to good use in the Glee Club, and Mr. Nocka is said to be looking for three or four Freshmen to fill his place after George receives his diploma. About the only other thing that may be said against this man, besides the fact that he originated in Chester, is his exceptional proficiency in Civil Service exams. He got 94 in the last one, which gave him the offi- cial rank of Mail-carrier. ANNE RUTH HERRMAN A T 3100 Woodland Avenue, Washington, D. C.

Her service for others and fellowship we note immediately. She has a large coterie of friends, and, versatile as she is, delights them all; foolish with the Freshmen, sensible with the Sophomores, joking with the Juniors, and serious with the Seniors. As for her Skill and Handicraft, we see that in the way she manages the girls ' basketball team. We can vouch for her character and intelligence, for she is straight as a die, and can procure high grades with little apparent effort.

Johnson Street, Germantown, Pa. ENGLISH Our friend Betty, or Hopper as she is commonly called, is a committee of one to uphold the social standing of Swarthmore in the great outside world. Her favorite in- door sport is that of arranging the forty-eight hours of her week-ends so as not, to slight a single party, tea, bridge or what-not that she is supposed to attend. Besides Betty ' s Sas- siety duties, however, she upholds the fam ily honor as a Student (ask her why sometime before exams), as an Athlete (being the champion long-distance runner to the Tele- phone on the hall), and as a Public Speaker (in explaining how she keeps her lovely wave) . While anyone should feel proud of such a string of accomplishments, we feel it our duty to add that the Halcyon has it on good authority (viz., Betty ' s roommate) that Hopper is the girl whose disposition is more like the far-famed California weather than is California weather itself. HERBERT SAGE HOSKING, Jr. 534 S. 48th Street, Philadelphia, Pa. POLITICAL SCIENCE HONORS Herb is a fellow who has attached his destiny to a literary star, and it certainly has shone brightly on him. He handles prose with a deft pen and poetry with a ready eraser. Herb succeeded in carrying off the big end of the prize offered by The Port- jolio last year. He also gained a handsome reward for the best collection of books owned by a student, and, to show his real intellectual interest, he spent it for more books. He destroyed the general impression that he was a professor by appearing in the Hamburg Show. t --i K A Tir Page Ninc-ty-one TiALCYOl LAWRENCE ALEXANDER HUNT Wharton Club 56 Davis Avenue, White Plains, N.

This one, however, has survived the especial hardships of this locality due to his peculiarly adapted supraaesophagal peri- cranium. Upon entering Larry ' s room, you might think you were back stage in a large theatre. No, not because of the pictures on the walls, for Larry isn ' t that kind of a boy, but because thete are so many ropes and pulleys that it looks like some scenery changing apparatus. Those who toom near him complain that they are unceremoniously awakened at seven forty-five when Larry ' s alarm-clock goes off, his window closes with a bang, his blankets are pulled .off, and the radiator starts that bumping for which ' Wharton radiators are EVERETT U.

He has three times been voted the neatest dressed man in Wharton, and his taste in cravattes is un- paralleled. When some bold brute insinu- ated that he didn ' t wear garters, Al broke out in a rash all over. It was Al who was obliged to pay for four admissions when he and Arenander brought girls to the Western Maryland game, and it was Al who borrowed an electric automobile to take a girl to a show. Kellei has eaten more early dinners and fewer breakfasts than Rus Harris and Al Cliff together. His devoutness, serenity, and poise have earned him the nickname of Pope. He is the most supeibly impervious man in this here college, but we shall never forget the time he got caught in his underwear in the corridor. ANNE KENNEDY K A 104 Fifth Avenue, New York, N. Y.

MARY FRANCES LANGFORD Croton-on-Hudson, New York There is a voung lady named Ruth A French Honor Student forsooth. She talked it so well That the froggies all fell And thought her a French girl in truth. Each day she comes out on the train And although of course she may feign, Her good disposition Disperses suspicion, The reason for liking hers plain. She studies all the history.

The classics must be fine. fmAhCYm ORA KATHARINE LEWIS JI 848 N. 65th Street, Philadelphia, Pa. HISTORY Clothes, new and lots of ' em, did you say? Just see Ora Lewis, 4th east, for that ' s where the supply of latest Paris creations hangs out. But this isn ' t the most salient feature of Ora, for she ' s not at all the high hat sort o ' person that t his suggests; she ' s the friendliest of friends and has to shove ' em out in droves from her room when she wants to study, for her room is the salon for all the gatherings and bull sessions on fourth. Blessed with a great curiosity on all sub- jeas, Ora has become a great delver into ancient lore and has joined that famous group of history majors of which Dr. Manning boasts. But history doesn ' t claim too much of her attention, for the tea-room, heatreS; week-ends home and all the big Penn proms claim her also as an ardent ] [enthusiast. Just the one to go to when a fi I feller needs a friend is Ora, for she ' s ai- rways sympathetic, and knows just how to put us in a jovial mood. - St i CAROLINE BIDDLE LIPPINCOTT K A 9 Riverton, N.

ECONOMICS Writing Dick ' s life and accomplishments in a hundred words is like confining the Dean to two minutes — it just can ' t be done. Dick is a great golf player — his endurance and stamina are remarkable. He plays all nineteen holes equally well. From country club to ranch is no small step, but Dick is both the debutantes ' rage and the cowboys ' idol. ' With regard to riding broncoes he has such an edge on the market that he collects a royalty from every picture Tom Mix pro- duces. What Dick can ' t accomplish any other way he accomplishes with his smile. Everyone laughs with him here at college. So we will say for Dick, If to be happy means I must be king — go fetch my crown.

POLITICAL SCIENCE HONORS Like Alexander of old who sighed for other worlds to conquer, our hero proved himself a versatile man by his success in various fields of endeavor at college. We might omit to say that he is manager of ten- nis, and that in debating his fame is great while as class treasurer he handled a diffi- cult job well. But there is one thing we must not leave out — he is feature editor of this famous volume. If you read with pleas- ure the pages of alleged funny stories and howl over pictures such as that of the foot- ball captain at the age of two and a half taking a bath, give the credit to Mac. HOLBROOK MANN MacNEILLE A T 140 Mountain Avenue, Summit, N. J. MATHEMATICS Holbrook, better known as Brookie, is a lad who hails from Summit, New Jersey. Brookie landed here in his Freshman year with a love of work and a shyness for the weaker-minded sex. Since then our fair hero has kept up to his reputation, and has not yet missed a football practice. Brookie has a generous heart, and for two years has handed out instruction in arithme- tic gratis to all comers, including Freshmen. Brookie is always accomplishing something worth while, and, if anyone ever filled the unforgiving moment, it is certainly the red- blooded custodian of A-1-4. His one failing is a weakness for a little bit of good clean fun at cards, and in this department Brookie is a tip-top player. WILLIAM CAMERON McCOOK A T 24 Carpenter Lane, Mount Airy, Pa.

He certainly takes up his share of the campus. But every- body is entitled to his share and he manages his portion in a capable manner. In spite of his corpulence, he gets around well enough to hold down a regular position on the soccer team. Studie has another great achievement. Any time between noon and three o ' clock, any day of the week, any week of the year you can find him in bed. And when he gets that big blonde head of his buried in a pil- low there ' s no disturbing him. So if you can ' t find Studie, use this as a sure clue to his whereabouts. ECONOMICS Exhibit M is the Big Boy who is pugi- listically inclined. If some innocent Fresh- man is talking quietly to a friend, and some- one comes up unexpectedly and tosses him half-way down the hall, the victim knows at once that his tormenter is Jim Miller. That ' s the lad. Nature has endowed him with so much energy that even such enervat- ing tasks as a cheer leader ' s duties and a base (the other kind, too) in the Glee Club, cannot hold him down. Then, Jim works out some more by hauling scenery from the Little Theater to Collection and back again. But still he is ready for all comers and has yet to meet his match.

Not content with that, he writes letters back to Nebraska telling of the joys of Swarthmore life and he goes to student conferences to talk up honors work. To remind himself that he came from the West, Doug keeps, it is rumored, a buffalo ' s thigh bone on his desk for an ink-stand.

ECONOMICS Lute got off to a bad start in commencing his college career. His first love was the University of Pittsburgh, but after a year of picking cinders out of his eyes, he realized his error and enrolled at the little college back in the old home town. Being a day student, Lute usually spends no more time than necessary around • the campus, except in the spring afternoons, when this sandy-haired lad may be observed on Alumni Field, gobbling up hot grounders with great relish. As a little side line, Owrey acts as a self- appointed censor for all Chester shows and if dtje is in quest of an evening ' s entertain- rnen he need only tell Lute the type of production preferred, and he will be directed to the theatre which has the performance desired.

His friends claim his indifference is superb. Sticky, by which he soon became known, made an appropriate designation, because, when you need him, he ' s there. When it comes down to significant things, Sticky can uphold his part in any bull session, is a past master at bridge, and plays on the golf team. Besides these invaluable assets he wears knickers with a professional touch that no one in college can even hope to approach. ' What more could one want?

SOCIAL SCIENCE HONORS Mac is one of those rare combinations of the athlete and the scholar. He e.xcels in both lines of endeavor, and also finds time to manage the business end of the Halcyon, attend to certain engrossing social obliga- tions, and pursue his duties as a Bible sales- man. If you ' ve never heard Mac give his line, you have missed a gem in the ait of salesmanship. He makes you feel that life is not worth living without possessing three or four of his best Bibles.

ENGLISH Nell has been — The leading lady in many a play. Nell might be — the heroine of many a novel according to experiences she has had with folks ftom the Tennessee mountains and points north or elsewhere. But we deal now with what Nell is— So list ye then to The southern rhythm in her voice. Sincerity and color in her actions, Variety and wit in her words Made delightful by a lyric beauty in her thoughts of life. And you will know that Nell has the fea- tures expression, voice and personal- ity of a modern poem; Essentially free and real. SmALCYO — 5 ELISABETH WINIFRED RUMBLE Rudedge, Pa. ENGLISH You can ' t judge a book by its title — right! Take Winnie for instance — to look at those down-cast eyes and that sweet, shy smile, to watch that quiet, unassuming man- ner; to hear that low voice and those soft footsteps as she comes down the hall — you ' d never think her name was Rumble!

She hasn ' t swum the Channel yet, but she ' s getting good practice managing Swarthmore ' s swimming team. She hasn ' t written a novel, but you should see some of her biology write-ups.

MATHEMATICS HONORS Ed is probably the smartest fellow in the Junior class, although he usually disclaims this role, and almost succeeds in making us think he doesn ' t do any work. After prov- ing he was the best engineer in his class, he changed to Mathematics Honors, which he enjoys hugely. He is the nucleus of any bridge game, and his mere countenance incites the boys to play their hardest. He certainly apoears the laziest and most shiftless member of his class. To see him shambling around, one would not think him the speedy swimmer he is. He is one of God ' s chosen few, who never seem to have a trouble or a care in the world. Always grinning, always ready for anything nonsensical, he certainly is the gay deceiver. For in his mind he threshes out the problems of the world. Perhaps his best trait is his insusceptibility to the co- eds, or even to good-looking women. jlmALCYO FLORENCE G ARRETT SELLERS K K r 227 McKinley Avenue, New Haven, Conn. ENGLISH I thought I saw a picture Of a maid of long ago, With (darkest eyes and tresses And her gown arranged just so. She looked so calm and quiet With poise and dignity, I wondered if, in my day Such a girl would ever be. I rubbed my eyes and marveled For lo! She was quite real They say her name is Flossie. Found at last — my quaint ideal. ESTHER SHALLCROSS K A B Middletown, Del. ENGLISH And Esther obtained favour in the sight of all them that looked upon her, said the prophet aforetime. Thus shall it be recorded that another maiden, tall of stature and comely of face, arose from a nearby land and entered into certain gates of learning. And wheresoever the maiden sojourned she obtained favour, for she was kindly of action and waited with a cheerful countenance upon those in joy or in affliction. As aforetime she passed by with maidenly dignity, clothed in apparel of royal and softened hues. Moreover, she showed wis- dom in all her work and rejoiced exceedingly in the beauties of the land wherein she so- journed. Thus is it pleasing to the people, from henceforth, to cherish the name of Esther. For the virtues of Esther are queenly and she hath obtained favour in our sight. ,, - , |mA.LCYO RUTH SHELLMAN K K r 727 Elmwood Avenue, Wilmerte, HI. ENGLISH Swarthmore ' s Shelley has not the im- prudence or impraaicality of her namesake from Sussex, England. In faa, the first thing that impresses you about our Shelley is her unassertive efficiency. It is seldom that you find anyone so efficient and clever who does not continually tell you about it. But our Shelley lets actions do their own talking, while in those big blue eyes of hers and dusky hair we catch glimpses of the poet. And of course The English Club found that they needed a Shelley so they asked her to join. The Little Theatre Club liked the way Shelley manages things and they chose her as a member. Swarthmore College wanted this Shelley from Chicago so it ac- ce:pted her and since has been very glad. ±A EDNA M. SHOEMAKER K A 6 904 DeKalb Street, Norristown, Pa. ENGUSH HONORS Edna Shoemaker, Latest edition— Frice: Weight in gold. A sparkling comedy centering about the life of a 20th century honors student. What the critics say: The children — We love the chapter where Edna tells the story about Maria and the stranger. (One of the high spots in this fascinating volume.) An old friend — I recommend Edna Shoemaker because of the admirable splashes of social color and clever discussions of the best modern music, plays, and fiaion. Of unusual interest to all ages. Any boy — I find Edna Shoemaker an in- teresting companion on any occasion. You never tire of her conversation at dances or elsewhere. She herself is an indefatigable character. All of us — If you are not familiar with Edna Shoemaker, you have missed an ac- quaintance with one of our leading char- of th ' e year. Hundred and Eighteen RUEY MAY SIEGER A T 546 V. Walnut Lane, Lancaster, Pa. ENGLISH One Point: Ruey ' s age, of which we are all jealous. She tries to disguise it under her height, but confidentially she is the youngest member of ' 28. Two Point: Ruey ' s activities, take your choice! Physical or Psychical? She balances her basketball ability with her debating prowess, and incidentally plays on both such teams in one day — if necessary. She may be aiming to be a Financial Statistician but in the meantime, she works on Halcyon and sits down with the class orchestra as our musician — or gains high tennis honors in the spring. Three Point; Ruey ' s average, another thing of which we are all jealous because we never see her plugging away or hesita- ting to go to Penn State when she has an exam Monday morning.

SOCIAL SCIENCE HONORS Thi s distinguished personage has recently honored our fair college with his presence. After spending the first two years of his col- legiate career at the University of Wisconsin, he realized our need for a genius, and promptly enrolled as a Swarthmore honors student. ' While his studies occupy the major portion of his time and interest, Bob man- ages to find time for a little dabbling in radio, stamp collecting, and swimming. But, sad to relate, even the best of us has his glaring faults and Bob is no exception. He has a weakness which, if not carefully guarded, may have serious results. I hesi- tate to mention so delicate a subject, but the truth must out, so if you ' ll come a little closer I ' ll whisper it to you. Sh-h-h. He plays a clarinet. Any Woolmanite will agree that this is a terrible shortcoming. How- ever, those who know Bob well can overlook his weakness for clarinet-playing, and we must admit, in the words of the immortal Shakespeare,:; ' He ' s a jolly good fell ALCYOTN WILLIAM LINCOLN SIMMONS, Jr. A 121 Greenwood Avenue, Jenkintown, Pa. HENRY ALBERT SMITH 9 2 n Rutlcdge, Pa. POLITICAL SCIENCE Gilda Grey and Bebe Daniels, as far as we know, never graced Swarthmore with their presence. But before they so heartily en- dorsed the Velvet Joe ads, they must have seen Bill Simmons, the most famous devotee of the briar in College. Maybe it was in Hollywood. Anyhow, while the fair stars endorse, Bill smokes. Wisps still hang in the Whittier Place trees where Bill once made his mark on the way from Woolman. That pipe ' s only rival is a decrepit can which appears now and then to make the air even denser. None other than Dean Walters, usually one to frown at all cars, is still grateful to Bill; all in loving remem- brance of the night a Ford snatched him from, the fury of the storm. FRENCH HONORS Ladies and gentlemen, you have before you this evening the one and only original bridge fiend. The Governor is posi- tively the only one of his kind in captivity. He walks, he talks, and he looks just like an ordinary human being, but listen folks; would you believe it, if I didn ' t tell you, the creature before you is not an ordinary person like you and me, but, by some quirk of na- ture, there are combined in him two most diverse oddities which make him one of the most interesting freaks in our show. Ladies and gentlemen, this man is not only a bridge expert but he is also one of those rare beings known as honors students. Step right into the big tent, folks, and see this wonder of the world give an astonishing exhibition of bridge playing and preparing for to- morrow ' s seminar at one and the same time. HALCYO ment! NEWLIN B. SMITH A T Swarthmote, Pa. SOCIAL SCIENCE HONORS Y-0-0 there! What ho! The corridor fairly rings with these deep-toned words. There is a shufBe of feet and a loud rattle of the door knob, as though a frenzied mob were eagerly seeking entrance. Suddenly the door of the Phoenix office swings wide, and in walks the cause of all the commotion. With his coat in one hand and a brief case in the other, he walks deliberately over to a typewriter standing on a corner table. Swing- ing his coat over the back of the chair, he leafs hurriedly through a great stack of papers in the brief case, and begins typing frantically. It is 9: 45 and Smitty must finish the account of his travels through Europe before ten o ' clock. TiALCYO MARGARET SOMERVILLE n B 5600 16th Street, N.W., Washington, D. C.

MATHEMATICS Gertrude is one of the few who does the serious and the difficult. She is a math, major, a function involving the two angles of intellect and courage. When at leisure she enjoys riding her favorite horse over the meadows of West Chester. In the saddle Gertrude is as pro- ficient as elsewhere. She has numerous appointments in town of such an interesting nature that they oc- cupy much of her spare time. In all that she attempts, Gertrude is per- severing and hardworking, and the envied of indolent victrola players. POLITICAL SCIENCE Yes, this room is a mess.

Page 6. — A Considerable Height Charley Tilton was loath to close his book and go outside. It was so cool and pleasant in the library that May afternoon. But the fresh blood of Spring was in his veins. So, he tore himself away to go and frolic on the athletic field. The track coach was overjoyed at the sight of the youth, and called him.

If the motion picture directors haven ' t discov- ered him yet someone had better tip them off to the biggest potential box office attrac- tion of the age, Raymond (rarely Himself) Townley. Meanwhile, Ray is limiting his sheiking to Newark and Swarthmore. Even here the girls are not insensible to his attractions and this specimen of masculine pulchritude is al- ways dated up for the girls ' frat dances about a year in advance. On almost any evening of the week, at the end of fussing hour, Townley may be seen emerging from one of the Parrish classrooms with a fair co-ed at his side, peering down into her eyes with his famous dying-duck expression. HENRY LISTER TOWNSEND Wallingford, Pa. POLITICAL SCIENCE Henry has been around college for the past three years, entertaining the Boys in some of ' Wharton ' s greatest Bull Sessions. In his smoke-filled room, he can get off some fine arguments, but we attribute a great deal of this to the influence of his pipe. He is never himself without it. ■With a headful of red hair like Henry ' s, it is a man-sized job to keep under control, but usually Reds is pretty successful. Ac- cidents always happen — last year Henry took a crowd of fellows to town in his station wagon, and they let him out and came home without him. His red hair got the best of him then, and he never quite g H.over it. J w. re Inn m Page One Hundred and Tifenly-fire halcyon SELDEN Y. TRIMBLE, Jr. A 9 1210 S. Main Street, Hopkinsville, Ky.

CHEMISTRY Why is Bob Whitten in his room on the books instead of being out in the glorious autumn air? asked the ignorant Freshman, as he respectfully doffed his cap. That comes from knowing all about the division of labor, my boy, replied the Wise Guy, and he didn ' t learn it by studying economics, for he ' s the Junior chemistry major.

They were dignified and quiet then but they knew when to be jolly and — what is it thee calls it? — peppy. They played good hockey and danced well, too. One of the things they were proud of was their sticking to a thing they believed in. I remember so well the gorgeous hair they piled softly above the fairest of skins, and the lovely clothes they wore. They were of fine old Quaker families and refinement and ladylikeness just shone from them. I wish I could show thee — why there — thee sees — they were just like that. I turned to look at Pris!

We can ' t quite pic- ture Anne behind a teacher ' s desk confront- ing little children from a nearby state, with the proverbial rod. But Anne did do that very thing, just last year. The way we can account for her success is that the children must have thought her rod a wand from the way she looked and spoke to them. But dainty people are always surprising us with their ability — that ' s one of the beauties of them. Anne is like that, too. Narrative Writing, Philosophy, and One Act Plays are only a few of the subjects into which she delves eagerly. Yet these and any of the other big and little things Anne does around college, cannot obscure a distinctly pleasant, a distinctly Anne daintiness — of dress and voice and manner.

Y. m Campus Page One Hundred and Forty-five Commencement CHILL winds, unseasonable weather and rain, which fell intermittently throughout the whole of commencement week, enhanced rather than detracted from the dignity and solemnity of the ceremonies which marked the passing of another class, that of Nineteen Hundred Twenty Six, from the halls of S varthmore College. Class Day dawned rainy and dull. It was not long, however, before the address of Class President Shuster, the class history, written by Robert Graham, the class poem, written by George Clothier, the class will, written by Dorothy Merrill and the humorous gifts presented to each member of the class by Edward Bartlett had made the day a great success. Clear skies warranted the fine performance of the Senior Play, Prunella, in the twi- light of the Magill auditorium. On Alumni Day the class of ' 16, depicting Dr. Miller ' s Sumatra Ex- pedition, won the prize for the best costumed class as well as the prize for the class with the greatest proportion of its members back. A 7-3 victory over Haverford in baseball gave the returning Alumni an opportunity to see another contest between the old Quaker rivals. The Alumni Banquet, pre- sided over by Joseph H. Willits, ' 11, brought the eventful day to a close. Dr. Stephen S. Wise, Rabbi of the Free Synagogue and President of the Jewish Institute of Religion, delivered the Baccalaureate Address on Sunday in the Meeting House. The topic of his inspiring sermon was, What Men Live By . As a climax to the services of the day Richard M. Perdew delivered the Ivy Oration after the class ivy had been planted. The commencement exercises of the fifty-fourth Senior Class of Swarth- more College were held in Collection Hall. One hundred and eight students, of whom twenty-four were honors students, received degrees. The Com- mencement Address was delivered by Sir Robert Falconer, President of the University of Toronto, on College Aristocrats. Various honorary awards and scholarships were announced by President Aydelotte and the diplomas given to the graduating class. The Ivy Medal was given to Richard M. Perdew while Lydia Roberts was the recipient of the Oak Leaf Medal. As the strains of Alma Mater rose and died away in the halls of Parrish, another chapter in the annals of Swarthmore College was concluded. ALCYON Founders ' Day THE fifty-seventh anniversary of the founding of Sv arthmore College proved an event which will be long remembered by all who participated in it. For the second consecutive year the untimely presence of Jupiter Pluvius necessitated the holding of the events of the afternoon in Collection Hall rather than, as was planned, in the Magill Outdoor Auditorium. Although the inclemency of the weather made the customary outside academic procession impossible, yet the warmth of the celebration within seemed to be not one whit lessened. There were few vacant chairs in Collec- tion Hall when the junior class, resplendent in blue coats and white trousers or skirts, marched down the aisles, completing the academic procession led by Dr. W. R. Wright who was followed by the faculty, the Board of Mana- gers, and the senior class in cap and gown. Following the singing of America, Howard Cooper Johnson, ' 96, a member of the Board of Managers, read the one hundred and eleventh psalm. President Frank Aydelotte spoke of the financial standing of the college, mentioning in particular the donation of Clement M. Biddle, Jr., ex ' 96 of $70,000 for a library of Quaker literature. He also discussed the new system adopted of holding only two required collections each week. Wilson M. Powell, president of the Board of Managers, spoke briefly concerning Swarthmore scholarship and her selective method of admitting freshmen. Roscoe Pound, Dean of the Harvard Law School, and a member of the Swarthmore Friends ' Meeting was introduced as the principal speaker of the afternoon. Dean Pound delivered a convincing address on the subject of ' ' Individualism and the Individual Life. ' ' He showed the growing tendency of our law-making bodies to treat each individual case as if there never had been anything like it before and could never be anything like it in the future. At the close of his address, alumni, friends and students of the college united in singing Alma Mater. The strains of Alma Mater had scarcely died out in Collection Hall when a cheer was heard on Swarthmore Field as the Garnet eleven ran out prepared to meet Ursinus in a football game. The game played on a muddy field resulted in a victory for Swarthmore by the narrow margin of six to three. While the football game was being played, the faculty of the college held an informal reception for alumni and friends of the college in the Mana- gers ' Parlors. The closing feature of Founders Day was an address entitled Patriotism Here and Elsewhere by Dr. Jesse H. Holmes, head of the department of philosophy. Dr. Holmes showed clearly the foolishness of narrow patriotism which, seeing no fault in itself, judges other races by its own standards. Cooper Foundation THE Cooper Foundation is a fund which was established by William J. Cooper for the purpose of bringing to the College speakers of intellectual reputation. The committee in charge of administering this fund has been especially successful this year. Its speakers have been as varied in their personalities as in the points of view which they have offered to Swarth- more. Half of the money is used in obtaining a few persons of unusual importance or interest to speak to the students as a whole and to friends of the college. The rest enables the different departmental and social clubs to secure speakers along their particular lines which they would otherwise be unable to have. Under the direct auspices of the Cooper Foundat ion, Miss Margaret Deneke gave a delightful piano lecture recital on Dance Forms, on December third. Donald MacMillan, the famous arctic explorer, entertained the college with a splendid illustrated lecture of Arctic Explorations, on February eleventh. On March twenty-second, Lorado Taft gave a lecture demon- stration on How Statues are Made. On April fifteenth, Thomas Whitney Surette came to the college with the famous Russian String Quartette in a very beautiful Brahms lecture-concert. Also, it was through the Cooper Foundation that Dean Roscoe Pound of Harvard spoke to the college on Founders ' Day. During the past year several shorter lectures in Collection have been made, including those by Dr. S. Rhadakrishna, a philosopher of India, Miss Lucy Gardner, Dr. Leon M. Pearson, Mr. W. LeRoy Anspach, and Bliss Carman, the well-known poet. Among the speakers to the student clubs who were obtained with the generosity of the Cooper Foundation are many well-known persons. Dr. Joseph S. Ames, and Dr. Arthur L. Day, Director of the Geological Labora- tory of the Carnegie Institute, spoke at meetings of Sigma Xi . Evans Woolens talked to the Swarthmore chapter of Phi Beta Kappa. An event worthy of note was the exhibition of Russian folk dancing, by Mr. and Mrs. Harry Timbres, brought about by the efforts of the Somerville Forum. The Bettis Academy Glee Club performed before a meeting of the Y.M.C.A. and the Y.W.C.A. of the college. Professor A. T. Murray, of Hamilton College, spoke to the members of the Classical Club. Under the auspices of the Forum, Kenneth Lindsay, and Harry W. Laidler came to Swarthmore. e Hundred and Forty-eight TiALCYO Women ' s Student Building THE campaign for the Women ' s Student Building at Swarthmore has been progressing now for two years. Although this drive is being carried on by the Alumnae and ex-students of Swarthmore College, the undergraduates wished to show their interest in this project. One thousand dollars was decided as the goal toward which the college women would work. There have been many ways in which money has been raised. Last spring a bridge tournament was held. Practically the whole college turned out for this and the returns accordingly were great. The undergraduates made pledges before leaving college which were to extend over the summer since the women themselves felt that it would be easier to save at this time than during the college year, while others would work and thereby earn money which they could give. In the late fall of last year a drive was made. A large percentage of the women students made pledges which amounted to about $60. Half the returns of this year ' s Hamburg Show, amounting to $132, was turned over to the Women ' s Student Building Fund. On March 10th the Players Club of Swarthmore presented Penrod, a comedy by Booth Tarkington, for the benefit of the fund. Both Alumnae and undergraduates worked to sell tickets for this. At the end of last year almost a third of the required amount for the Women ' s Student Building was subscribed. This year the work has progressed rapidly and the Policy Committee, whose chairman is Lydia Williams Roberts, ' 97, has raised almost the entire amount. Ground will be broken for the Women ' s Student Building this spring. jl ALCYO Gifts to the College SWARTHMORE IS indeed happy in having such actively interested alumni and friends. The past year has been an especially fortunate one, as it has seen the realization of many hopes for the college. First of all, Morris L. Clothier, ' 90, supplied the finishing touch needed to complete the Alumni Field for w hich he has already done so much. Through his generosity a large steel and concrete grand-stand, seating nearly two thousand, was erected, and dedicated at the first football game. It was not many weeks later that Clement M. Biddle, ex. ' 96, donated $70,000 to be used for a new library and reading room, as a memorial to his father, Clement M. Biddle, a member of the Board of Managers from 1869 to 1894. The new library will run parallel to the present one and will be con- nected with it by the new reading room which will form the cross-piece of the H-shaped building. The Friends ' Historical library will be moved to this new building and the records of many Friends ' meetings will also be kept there, making possible much valuable research work. This addition to the library will nearly double the space where students may study. And last came the gift of Mrs. Isaac H. Clothier as a memorial to her husband who has been such a prominent figure in Swarthmore history. This gift of $100,000 has since been increased by other members of the family, and will be used for an auditorium to take the place of the inadequate Collec- tion Hall. Architects have been consulted and different sites are being con- sidered for the new structure. Page One Hundred and Interfraternity Council p. BuRDETTE Lewis, ' 27 KAPPA SIGMA Harold S.

It affords an opportunitv for everv man not affiliated with a fraternity to develop con- genial friendships which may be life-long. It has opened a new channel of thought in giving the undergraduates a chance to discuss college problems, and has encouraged its members to participate in athletics and other outside activities here in college. It engenders in all its members love and due respect for old Alma Mater. To be sure one of its greatest accomplishments is the entertaining of non-fraternitv alumni who visit Swarthmore. The Torch is the emblem of the Club, but only those members who have performed real services to the organization and who have obtained a certain scholastic standing are qualified to wear the emblem. Pins are bestowed upon the potential members who show interest in the organization.

REAT changes have taken place during the past year in the field of Phcenix work although the form and content of the paper have remained much what they were when the present staff took charge. This is because it was felt that there was much more room for improvement in the mechanics of handling the paper than in its editorial and business policies. The chief purpose of the present administration has been to make the work more instructive, and consequently more interesting for the underclassmen To this end responsibility, which heretofore rested on the shoulders of one man, the editor, has been distributed, with the result of a few unnecessary technical errors, balanced off on the other hand by a great many advantages. The editor ' s senior year has been marked by a much less amount of drudgery, and the work of the juniors and even the sophomores has been lightened by adding to it a touch of the executive side of the publication. The practical advantages of the new system have been remarkable, and a marked increase in the interest of the candidates in the paper for itself rather than as an activity in the abstract has been manifest. As for the actual work in putting out an issue of the Phoenix, the time required has been lessened materially through the regular use of a dummy. Thus much that was objectionable about the work, such as late hours on weekday nights and entire days spent in Chester, has been eliminated. A gratifying improvement in the grades of those who devote the most time to Phoenix work has given ample proof of the value of this step. Likewise the atmosphere in the office has undergone a change, which may be due in part to the new fixtures which have been obtained, but on the whole could be better accounted for by a change in the attitude of the scribes to their work. Where formerly a grim and hurried air characterized the office on busy nights, there is now an air of good-fellowship and co-operation which, far from decreasing the efficiency of the staff, has instead added to it considerably. From the reader ' s point of view the best indication of the state of the paper at present is, perhaps, to be found in the number of urgent letters and phone calls which come in whenever the post office department has failed to deliver it on time. ij AhCYO The Sw arthmore Phoenix Staff Editor-in-Chief Business Manager ....

Here we have the same wealth of opportunity, the same necessity for selection, the same spirit of helpfulness and co-operation, that confront each undergraduate. It brings alike the tedium - and the novelty, the discouragement and the triumphs, ll k wlL ' work and the play that make up the life of a college. lBB|||k. Moreover, the completed book must portray accurately, EDITOR and fondly, that life as it appears to the student body. It must be, to Swarthmore, a Halcyon; not a college annual. Clearly, the changes made by each succeeding Halcyon staff cannot be far-reaching. Many interests must be included in every book; others must be omitted. The task of compilation, therefore, resolves itself into a reproportioning of the contents and a vigilance toward the improvement of detail. In this, the forty-third Halcyon, we have attempted to give prom- inence to those features of Swarthmore which are most worthy of respect and endurance, and to subordinate or omit the more frivolous elements. Perhaps we may be forgiven if a slight prejudice appears for our own class and class- mates. Further, we have made definite, if not striking, improvements in the workmanship of the book. A superior binding, better stock, and the utmost in photographic, engraving, and printing excellence have contributed. In this, our autobiography for the year 1927, the staff has endeavored to catch the spirit that is Swarthmore. If we have failed, let our error be attributed to the en- thusiasm and near-sightedness of the undergraduate mem- bers, rather than to any misconception or small intent. Yet, as the book proceeds to its final court of appeal, we have the utmost confidence in our effort. It is an inter- esting and encouraging fact that the 1928 Halcyon has already been selected as the finest edition yet published. The board of judges appears on the opposite page. a.

The need for such a publication was manifested two years ago by a group of enthusiasts who believed that literary talent existed among the undergraduates here at college. All former attempts at publication had proved unsuccessful, but this energetic group saw land ahead and created enough interest among the students to elect a staff. Parents and friends of the college gave liberally, thus providing a financial backing for the Quarterly. Since then however, a strictly independent policy has been pursued and the paper is at the present time, absolutely self-supporting. To be sure the Portfolio has received many criticisms of every conceivable nature, but the staff has acted most democratically in all respects, profiting by constructive criticisms and strengthening itself against destructive ones. Last year it was deemed advisable to obtain an office for this magazine, but so far none has been secured. The meetings of the staff are set aside for thorough discussion groups, and a suitable place is all to be desired. The Portfolio has a real place here at Swarthmore. It is an enterprize which can become a success only through the help and support of every student. Those who contribute to the columns feel they have an indi- vidual responsibility of producing something of a real literary value, while those who subscribe add the finish- ing touches of real appreciation and good faith.

M. C A. and Y. W. C A. Conferences FOR the first time the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. conferences were held together at Eaglesmere. In the opening meeting Bruce Curry spoke on the Spirit of Comradeship between Men and Women which he hoped would be exemplified there. And in the days that followed, there was plenty of social interest as well as the more serious business of the conference. In the mornings there were many interesting talks. J. Stitt Wilson spoke on the Creative Personality, Juliette Derricotte on the Race Question, and there were discussions on Law Enforcement, War, Industry, and the Church. Perhaps one of the most enlightening of these events was a three-hour talk by Dr. Edith Swift on the Problems of Young People. These lectures were followed by separate groups for discussion. There were also interest groups which planned programs for carrying on Y work during the winter. The afternoons were occupied with tennis, bridge, canoeing, and long walks through the woods. One afternoon in the pouring rain the eds and co-eds of Swarthmore were disastrously defeated in a baseball game by the representatives from Penn State. However, with the aid of a Penn State star, the Swarthmore men overcame U. of P. by a score of 11 to 4. Two tea dances were given, as well as stunt night, when the Swarthmore group entertained with the old college classic of the automobile ride. This was followed by a dance for all those attending the conference. The Swarthmore representatives were, for the girls, Marian Palmenberg, Katherine Snyder, Lois Thompson of the class of ' 27, and Margaret Somer- ville and Gertrude Jolls of the class of ' 28. The boys were represented by Richard McFeely, Robert Clothier, Sidney Johnson, Walter Simon, Nolan Kaltreider, of the class of ' 27 and Edward McFeely of the class of ' 28.

The Band under the able direction of Paul M. Kistler, ' 27, made a very favorable impression upon every audience, adding strength and volume to the concerts. The opening concerts were held in January at the Chalfonte-Haddon Hall, Atlantic City, and on one occasion the Clubs broadcast over Station WPG This effort met with the highest approval of many alumni and friends of the College, for letters of appreciation and congratulations were received from all parts of the countrv. The next concert was presented to a very appreciative audience at West Chester and on February 21st the Clubs gave their most distinguished performance before a home audience. The harmony and blend- ing of voices were particularly commented upon in Swarthmore ' s old favorite, Lassie o ' Mine. Probably the most outstanding event of the season was the Baltimore- Washington trip. The concert at Baltimore was presented to a fair audience in the Friends ' School, the most popular numbers being those rendered by the male quartet which included Walter S. Studdiford, ' 27, Ralph A. Gram, ' 29, Thomas M. Brown, ' 29, Morton Milne, ' 30. The Washington concert was given at the Raleigh Hotel. The College Songs under the leadership of Manager Burdsall, ' 27, brought hearty applause from the audience and displayed the enthusiasm of every man. While in the Capitol City it was the pleasure of the Clubs to be photo- graphed with President Calvin Coolidge. The White House served as a fitting background for the picture which will be a pleasant souvenir of the Washington trip. On Friday, March 11th, the Clubs journeyed to Elizabeth, New Jersey, where a performance was given under the auspices of the American Business Men ' s Association. The following evening the final concert of the season took place in the Grand Ball Room of the Plaza Hotel, New York City. Every man co-operated whole-heartedly with Mr. Nocka and for that reason in particular the concert was first class. To be sure the profusely decorated room and lighting facilities added a touch of refinement. The Musical Clubs owe much credit to Mr. Carl Nocka, the Glee Club leader, and to Miss Catherine Emhardt, ' 29, accompaniste. Special credit is due Paul M. Kistler, ' 27, band leader, and Elwood R. Burdsall, ' 27, who worked consistently for a successful year. hi ? - - ,« • ( ■ ' m Page Tiro Hundred and Tu imALCYO The Little Theatre Club THE Little Theatre Club, an organization designed to promote interest in dramatics and to encourage the production of the best of modern plays with the pick of the talent in the undergraduate body, completed another successful year with the presentation of two plays, one as a Founders ' Day feature, and the other the regular spring production. Membership in the club is based on worthy performance in major roles of at least two productions or ability in stage management and lighting effects. OFFICERS President Paul M.

Bartlett, ' 26, the student players, of whom several had proved their ability in former productions, gave an excellent performance. The play deals with modern home life, and reveals the college students ' attitude toward the older generation. Bernard Ingals, portrayed by Paul Strong, ' 30, and his wife Eunice, Gertrude Jolls, ' 28, make untold sacrifices to send their children to college. At the opening of the first act the three children, Bradley, Theodore Fetter, ' 28, Lois, Caroline Robison, ' 29, and Hugh, George VanHart, ' 27, all come home for the Christmas vacation. They find that their father, who has sacrificed the work that he loves in order to give his children every advantage, has lost his position. After a realization of this has come to the college students, they aid their father in his political difficulties, and the curtain falls on a household whose pro blem of conflict between the two generations has been happily adjusted. Josephine Tremain, ' 30, took the part of Mrs. Bradley, grandmother of the young people. The part of Julia Murdock, the old aunt was taken by Virginia Melick, ' 27, and Willard Grant, ' 30, played the part of her son, Roland. Noel Berby, an old family friend, was played by Ralph Gram, ' 30. William Pickett, ' 27 was the councilman, Leo Day. The role of Dagmar Carroll, Hugh ' s fiancee, was taken by Dorothy Shoemaker, ' 29. Robert Stabler, ' 27, played the part of Elliott Kimberley, a politician and enemy of Bernard Ingals. 7 halcyon One- Act Plays THIS year when Mr. Hicks let down the barrier of the prerequisite of Speech Training, battalions of students marched into his course in greater numbers than ever before. Correspondingly more coaches reported to direct the aspir- ing actors. As before, two competitive casts worked on the same play, and at a tryout at the end of several weeks practice, the better actors were chosen to present their interpretation at one of the triannual public performances of the One-Act Plays. Just before the spring vacation last year, three original One-Act Plavs, written bv Swarthmore students, were produced bv the members of the One- Act play course and members of the Little Theatre Club. Horace Smith, Betty Miller, Henry McAllister and Esther Thompson acted in The Cross- roads, bv Edith Hull. Ross Fink directed it. Mirage was plaved by Gertrude Jolls, Alice Dickey, William Howard, and William C. Pickett under the direction of Florence Hoskinson, the author. This play, though perhaps not superior in technique, acted better than The Crossroads. Auntie Up written bv Theodore Fetter, was directed bv Virginia Melick. Marietta Watson, Charles Mears, Thoburn Maxwell, Ruth Longacre, Donald Dudley and Leah Shreiner took the parts of college students, Carolyn Hearne the part of Aunt Jane, and Theodore Fetter the chauffeur. Approaching technical perfection, and offering some interesting and luminous philosophy on the younger and older generations, this play took the first Curtain Theatre Prize. Last Mav, the plav course presented a special three act play, George Bernard Shaw ' s Candida for the benefit of the Women ' s Student Building Fund. Robert Stabler, Esther Howard, Eugene Gedney, Robert E. Eiche, supported Polly Smith as Candida and Ted Fetter as the young hero poet. Polly Smith ' s acting did much to augment the play ' s success. At a scheduled performance of the One-Act Play course, on December 10, 1926, four one-act plays were produced. The Rector by Rachel Crothers, with the scene laid in a small wintrv Pennsvlvanian town durine the eighties, was directed by Helen D. Scott. It is a farce about narrow- minded, sentimental women who take a jealous, foolish delight in laying plans for the rector ' s future. The cast consisted of: Marion Harris, Albert J. Blackburn, Rebecca Hathaway, Julie Chapman, Sara Franklin, Elizabeth Jenkins and Diane E. Follwell. Julie Chapman distinguished herself in her vivid characterization of Miss Trimble. Next on the bill was The Robberv by Clare Kummer in which Betty Lou Thompson, Thomas Moore, Joseph D. Calhoun, Nell Rubens took part. This play is pure comedv mvsterv, and the character study of the father Mr. Upton was excellently portraved by Joseph Calhoun. William C. Pickett directed the production. Op-o ' -Me Thumb bv Fenn and Pryce, a play laid in a London laundry, was cast by Sara Pratt, Esther White, Edna Shoemaker, Winifred T ALCYO Rumble, Marian Hall, and Stephen B. Tily, under Esther Howard ' s and Frances McCafferty ' s direction. Marian Hall, who took the part of Amanda in- terpreted her part delightfully. Edna Shoemaker also made a good character study. The last play, George Ade ' s The Mayor and the Manicure, which was directed by Robert M. Stabler, proved the most finished production of the evening. Ralph A. Gram as the Mavor and Sylvia Windle as the Manicure played excellently. Howard Morcimcr Drake and Jcancttc Poore supported them. The last play on the bill was Double Demon by A. B. Herbert. Here there is a jury consisting of ten jurywomen and one juryman. Alexander MacDougall took the part of the juryman. Maretta King was the forewoman. Helen Scott, Mary Passmore, Helen Zendt, Marian Foberg, Adelaide Israel, Harriet Townsend, Gertrude Whetzel, Catharine Carl, Ruth Ennes and Frances McCafferty played the jurywomen. On March 18, 1927, four more plays were presented in Collection Hall. Diane E. Follwell, Anna Rose Williams and Winifred Rumble, under Carolyn Hearne ' s direction, acted For Distinguished Service. This play is about an attractive woman who proves herself conventional, by refusing to captivate another woman ' s husband. Esther Howard and Theodore Fetter directed Everybody ' s Husband by Gilbert Cannon. Betty Lou Thompson took the part of the girl. Kitty Rittenhouse, Esther Shallcross, Esther Felter and Marian Hall impersonated the spirit ' s motherly ancestors, and Theodore Fetter was everybody ' s husband. It is an enchanting sketch where, in spite of her dream, that everyone ' s husband is the same, the girl wakes on the morning of her wedding day believing her husband will be different. Marian Hall played the great-grandmother ' s part with the smoothness and under- standing of an accomplished actress. Betty Lou Thompson ' s interpretation was delightful. The Land of Heart ' s Desire, is a typical Yeats creation, dealing with Irish superstition. A sensitive dreamy Irish girl pines away for an imaginary fairyland far from her harsh homefolk and lethargic husband. Sara Pratt, Jack Leypoldt, Thoburn Maxwell, Elisabeth Jenkins, Milton Atkinson and Caroline Robison acted under Gertrude Whetzel ' s coaching. Elisabeth Jenkins as the girl was excellent in her portrayal, of the Irish dreamer, and Caroline Robison improvised a dance and song as the whirling fairy. The Dear Departed by Stanley Houghton, is a farce saturated with ludicrous, ridiculous lines of a crude and poorly educated family. Frances Porter, Joseph Calhoun, and Mortimer Drake did their parts outstandingly well. James Miller, Jeanette Poore and Charlotte Salmon complete the cast. Helen Scott was the coach. HALCYON ,; 111 Commencement Play THE class of 1926 delved into the fantastic for its commencement play which closed the Class Day exercises in the chilly twilight of early summer. The production was a Barrie-like delight, Prunella by Gran- ville Barker and A. E. Houseman, which took place amid the appropriate woodland charm of the Magill Outdoor Auditorium. Despite the cold and dampness of the June evening a certain warmth, prompted by the merit of the play, permeated the atmosphere of the amphitheater. It was meet that Prunella should have this outdoor setting which, coupled with an excellent cast, so well displayed the allegorical fantasy to the best advantage. Prunella, played with great understanding and feeling by Anna Maude Smith, is really the well-known heroine, Pierrette, who once bore the former name as the properly brought-up niece of three maiden aunts, Prim, Prude, Privacy, characterized as such persons should be by Ruth Lillian Ennis, Dorothy Dunn Bowers, and Mary Catelle Passmore. As the night follows the day, so Pierrot follows Pierrette. In this instance it was Robert Whit- more Graham, who, by a finished interpretation added this lover ' s part to his long list of meritorious dramatic portrayals. Then, there is Boy, one of the most charming and well acted parts, taken with convincing masculinity by Marretta Powell King. When Prunella is torn by a desire to follow Pierrot, Love, played by Florence Shock Kennedy, unto this time a statue, comes to life and urges the girl to go with her lover. Yet, to Pierrot there is another side in Scaramel, his darker character, portrayed by Donald Goodnow Dudley, always an actor well suited to such a role. The plot demands that Pierrot awake and finally realize his selfishness. When Prunella, now a beggar girl, falls asleep at the foot of the statue, to be soon found by the impetuous youth, there comes the dawning of the realization of true love. Other talented members of the class completed a cast as nearly perfect as could be desired for the presentation of this bit of fantasy, extremely charming though void of much substantial plot. Yet in its place there is an enchantment that carries the spectator into realms where the highly-developed imagination can play with the greatest ease. Particularly true was this in the Senior production, given adequate and intelligent direction by Allan Jocelyn, of the Hedgerow Theater, a capable coach whose work gave Pru- nella the finesse of professionalism. A play committee under the chairmanship of Arthur Haines Evans super- vised the practical work of the production. Page Two Hundred and Eight J xcYO DEBATE Men ' s Debate Manager A.

All forensic activities are usually concluded when the first signs of spring appear. After an interesting underclass tilt, the intercollegiate season opened with two debates on February 18th. One was a dual contest with George Washington University. Two men travelled to Washington to argue the question of extraterritoriality, while three men debated before a Swarthmore audience. In both places split teams were used. The other was a straight team debate upon the Eighteenth Amendment with Girard College at the citv institution. The pertinent question of intervention in Latin America was the subject of the annual debate between Swarthmore and Duke University. An open forum debate with Western Reserve University followed. The phase of the prohibition question regarding suggested amendment was argued.

There were five debates in all, three of which took place away, and the other two at home. As usual, except in the debate with Juniata College, the open forum style, with audience decision, was used. The season ' s most interesting debate was held with Wesleyan University, who sent a team of men to Swarthmore to debate on the question of Co- education. This was the hrst time the women ' s team had debated a men ' s college. Ruey Sieger and Mary Wright upheld the affirmative side of the question successfully. In the debate with Juniata College, Marietta Watson and Frances Eaton supported the negative on the question of cancelling the Allied War Debts. In the next debate with the University of Pittsburgh, on the Introduction of the Practical into Liberal Colleges, the teams were split — Marion Palmenberg upholding the affirmative, and Frances Fogg the negative. The debate with Temple University also concerned the War Debts. The team consisted of Edna Shoemaker and Ruey Sieger.

S varthmore Forum Organized 1925 THE Swarthmore Forum is the outgrowth of a combination of the Debate Board and the Polity Club, which, individually, were poorly supported. The aim of the new organization is to stimulate the thought and discussion of the problems of modern civilization, and to connect the students edu- cation with these problems. The Forum co-operates with other organizations in college as much as possible in furthering this aim. Among the outstanding speakers of the year were; Kenneth Lindsav, Social Worker and Lecturer from London, who gave an impressive talk upon the significance of the recent British general strike; Dr. Harry W. Laidler, who gave a thorough account of the events which lead to our extremely tense relations with Mexico over their recent land laws and our interference in Nicaraugua. A practical result of the Nicarauguan and Mexican discussion was the petition which was circulated by the Forum and sent to President Coolidge. Paul C. Ming, executive secretary of the Chinese Christian Asso- ciation stimulated thought on our relations with the awakening races of the Far East. EXECUTHT BOARD President Horace H.

Encountering an exceptionally hard schedule, the team won five games of eight played, defeating all the teams of its own class which were met. Susquehanna, Ursinus, Delaware, Franklin and Marshall, and Rutgers were beaten and only such powerful teams as Pennsylvania, Princeton and Western Maryland were able to overcome the Garnet. When the call for candidates was issued the outlook for the season was anything but promising. Eleven letter- men from the 1925 team, including such stars as Wilcox, Korn, Seymour, and Evans had graduated. Practically the whole backfield of the previous year was gone and the first problem facing Coach Mercer was to build up a new combination of ball carriers. Few followers of the Garnet were optimistic enough to predict five victories in one of the most difficult schedules ever attempted by a small college team. The season opened with Susquehanna at Selinsgrove. The extremely bad weather of the two preceding weeks had permitted only two scrimmages and, thus handicapped from lack of practice, the team went up against their farther-advanced opponents. Although Swarthmore finally won out by a score of 13-7, the team showed no great ability but displayed an abun- dance of fighting spirit. The game was won largely through the individual efforts of Captain Richards who made the first score of the season by scooping up a Susquehanna fumble in the first period and running for a touchdown. This was the only score during the first half. Susquehanna came back in the second half determined to win, and, on a series of passes, scored a touchdown, tying the score. The remainder of the game was bitterly fought. In the last period Swarthmore carried the ball to the four yard line where a fumble lost an opportunity for a touchdown. Fi- nally, with only a few minutes of play remaining, and the Garnet in possession of the ball at midfield, Garber shot a long forward pass to Coles who crossed MERCER, COACH m the goal-line with the winning points. In this game the inexperience of the new backfield was very evident, but the line functioned in great style. The following Saturday, the Little Quakers met the great team of the Big Quakers, which had been crushing its opponents under huge scores. In this game Penn was victorious by the largest score made by any team against Swarthmore in years. However, the game was not nearly so one-sided as the score would seem to indicate. For three periods, the Garnet held Penn on fairly even terms and it was not until the last fifteen minutes of play that the Red and Blue was able to gain freely. By this time the ■ Swarthmore players were exhausted and the constant stream of excellent reserves which Penn was able to throw into the game proved the deciding factor. In the first half Penn scored two touchdowns and a field goal. The Garnet came back strong in the second half and threw a scare into the Penn ranks by advancing the ball to the five yard line. It seemed likely that Swarthmore would keep up her tradition for scoring on Penn. The fifty thousand spectators were on their feet at the prospect of another of those great rallies for which Swarthmore is famous at Franklin Field. But the university team took the ball on downs and the threat was over. Richards again covered himself with glory by his great defensive play, and astonished Penn supporters by outplaying Butler, their Ail- American center. Pete was all over the field, making impossible tackles and backing up the line in fine style. A week later the Western Maryland team brought its ex-Quantico Marines to Swarthmore for the first home game, but Swarthmore was no match for its older and more experienced opponents. However, a shutout was averted when Palmer caught a forward pass in the last period and raced across the goal-line. This game was a costly one for the Garnet on account of injuries. A badly crippled eleven faced Ur- sinus the following week. Captain Richards, R. McFeely, Winde, Max- well, DeGroot, McGuire, Garber, and Petrikin were all on the sidelines be- cause of injuries. But the substitutes performed in an excellent manner and completely outplayed their Collegeville rivals, although held to a 6-3 victory. TiALCYO The lone touchdown was made on an end run by Dutton in the second quarter, after a forward pass had placed the ball on the 3 yard line. Only the brilliant playing of the Ursinus quarter- back, Willard Moyer, kept down the score. Swarthmore made only one substitution during the game, W. McFeely, taking the place of Richards at center. Tomlin, Castle, Coles, and Dutton played bang-up football against the Bears. DEGRooT Next came the annual struggle with ' ' Princeton. The Tigers, who later trimmed Harvard and Yale, shut out the Garnet for the first time since the two teams have met. Nevertheless, Swarthmore fought hard and outplayed Princeto n in the last period, several times coming very near scoring. This proved to be Swarthmore ' s last defeat of the season. Delaware University was the opponent in the final home game, and the Southerners were so confident of victory that several hundred students and a band accompanied the team to Swarthmore field. But the Garnet eleven had a good day and ran wild through the Newark team, scoring seven touchdowns, four points after touchdown, and a safety for a total of forty- seven points. DeGroot and Dutton starred for Swarthmore, each making two touchdowns. The whole team worked like a machine and gained almost at will. Delaware made its only score in the last few minutes of play when Loveland intercepted a pass and sprinted eighty-five yards for a touchdown. The next Saturday, Mercer took his charges to Lancaster, where for the first time in several years, Franklin and Marshall was beaten, in a rather loosely played game. The Blue and White held the Garnet on even terms in the first half, no scoring being done on either side. In the second half Richards put Swarthmore ahead with a twenty-five yard field goal and, later in the game. Castle and Barnes led a drive toward the F. and M. goal line, which ended when Castle took the ball across. The latter ' s fine punting featured the second half of the game. The final contest of the season took place at New Brunswick with Rutgers. The teams were very evenly matched, and, in a game replete with thrills and lost opportunities for scoring, Swarthmore was triumphant Page TlALCYON by a 13-0 score. The initial touchdown came in the first period, when McGuire made a beautiful run after catching a pass from Castle. Rutg ers then rallied and Swarthmore was on the defensive for the remainder of the first half. The second half was hard-fought. Both teams resorted to passing without much success. Swarthmore being handicapped in this department by the absence of Garber. The Garnet rooters were alarmed when Richards, who had been playing brilliantly, was forced to leave the game with a broken nose. W. McFeely again came through in a pinch and substituted at center in a very capable manner. In the last quarter, Castle intercepted a Rutgers pass, on the next play carried the ball off tackle, and behind perfect interference raced seventy-seven yards for the final touch- down of the year. Coach Mercer deserves great credit for the successful season, especially for his good work in molding a strong backfield out of inexperienced material. Castle and DeGroot were the only backs who had won letters in 1925. Castle played so well all season that he was elected captain of the team for 1927. The fine punting and passing of Garber, the sophomore full back, gave great promise for the future. Dutton, Widing, Unger, and McGuire also did meritorious work behind the line. Captain Richards was by far the most outstanding linesman. His tackling was the feature of the season and led to his being recommended by several leading critics for All-American honors. He was an inspiring and popular captain and his fighting personality played a great part in the success of the team. He has starred on the Swarthmore elevens of the last four seasons. Bill McFeely, who acted as under- studv to Richards, performed very ably and much is expected of him next season. Ward, Clack, Winde, and Hallowell played well at guard, as did Best, Tomlin, R. McFeely, and Lindahl at tackle. The team suffered a great loss when Dick McFeely was injured in mid-season and was unable to play in the final games. At end the most consistent players were Coles, Rickards, Palmer, Lang, and Petrikin. The greatest draw- back of the ends was lack of weight. 11 RICKARES HALCYO i ' ryic, TOMLIN W. MCFEELY MC GUIRE COLES Although nearly the whole line will graduate this year, the backtield will remain practically intact for the 1927 season, and, with the aid of several promising substitutes and freshmen, Swarthmore should have another win- ning team next year.

Tipping imALCYO 19x7 Basketball Revievs A SEASON of thrills. That describes the 1927 basketball season at Swarth- more College. Nearly every game was closely contested and five games were decided by a margin of three points or less. As a whole, the season may be considered unusually successful. Winning seven games out of thirteen is not a bad record, taking into account the extreme difficulty of the schedule. The team started off in line style by winning the first four games. Ursinus finally stopped the Garnet, but Sus- quehanna was defeated. Then, after three consecutive losses, Delaware and Princeton were soundly thrashed, while the last two games, with Pennsyl- vania and Lehigh, were lost. With four letter men as a nucleus and several very promising substitutes and freshmen players, the prospects for a great season were bright. However, a severe blow was dealt to the team when Captain Ward and Garber were declared ineligible and were not re-instated until mid-season. But Coach Fitts was fortunate in uncovering new stars to fill the vacancies. Cates filled the gap at center so ably that he has been selected to captain the 1928 team. Tipping, a freshman, also created a sensation by his fine work. These men, together with the veterans, Richards, Baum, Winde and Lippincott, and another freshman, McDiarmid, formed a powerful combination. The season opened with an easy victory over Osteopathy. Swarthmore grabbed an early lead and was never headed. Howard Cates did great work in his first varsity game, scoring fourteen points. The following evening DrexeTs highly-touted five was met and snowed under by a 40-13 score. Richards showed all of his previous year ' s form when he made fifteen points. Winde, who acted as captain, played a fine game at guard. Real thrillers from start to finish, the next two games with Ivluhlenburg and Stevens proved to be. In each case Swarthmore emerged victorious by the margin of a single point. In the Muh- lenburg game, the final outcome was not determined until two weeks later. The rooters created so much of an up- roar, in the hectic extra period, that the final whistle could not be heard. Just as the game ended Roy Baum sank a goal from the floor. Because of the noise RICKARDS, MANAGER TiALCYOl a it is doubtful whether the shot was made before or after the game was over. As Referee Sutton did not hear the timekeeper ' s whistle, and as Managers Rickards, of Swarthmore, and Dehringer, of Muhlenburg, did not see the shot it was impossible for them to render a decision on ,, . the question. If the goal was to count Swarthmore would H HpHi win by a score of 32-31, while if, on the other hand, the ■■ goal was scored after the whistle, Muhlenburg would win W V by a 31-30 count. No compromise could be made, so the ■ B coaches and referee finally agreed to refer the matter to Mr. W W Oswald Tower, chairman of the Intercollegiate Rules f _:;£ ■ Interpretation Committee. Mr. Tower ruled that the RICH.1RD3 referee ' s whistle ends the game and not the timekeeper ' s, so the decision was awarded to Swarthmore. This game will never be for- gotten by its spectators. After the Garnet led 18-12 at half-time, Muhlenburg tied the score at the end, 28-28. An extra five minute period had to be played with the exciting result just mentioned. Baum and Gates were the high scorers for Swarthmore. The Garnet team again weakened in the second half of the Stevens game. After having snatched a comfortable lead in the first period, Swarthmore was fortunate to win out. Bv a determined rally in the second half Stevens tied the score at 23-23. Tipping ' s foul in the closing minutes won the game. Baum and Gates were again the leading players for Swarthmore. Another bitterly fought game, resulting in Swarthmore ' s first defeat of the season, occurred when Ursinus was played. In this game, as in the two previous ones, the Garnet slumped after holding a large lead early in the game. After trailing for ten minutes by a 12-2 score, Ursinus rallied and was far in the lead by the middle of the second half. Then Swarthmore got working and cut down the difference to four points. How- ever, the Gollegeville team, which had conquered Penn earlier in the year, finally won, 45-35- The star center of the losers. Gates, was injured early in the second period and was forced to leave the game. With Gaptain Bob Ward and Garber back at their old positions, the Susquehanna game resulted in a well-de- served victory for Swarthmore. The team played con- sistently good basketball throughout the game. Richards scored five field goals, while the Garnet guards held the opposing forwards to a single goal from the floor. After holding an eight point advantage in the first few minutes of the next game, with Lafayette, the Swarth- ■o Hundred and Th ' n alc yon ' more five slowed down in the middle of the second half and was defeated. Baum played a line game, getting four double-deckers. For the second successive vear Haverford barely emerged victorious by a 33-30 score. In the iirst half the Hicksites completely outplayed the Orthodox team and the half ended with Swarthmore ahead, 20-14. But the old second-half jinx again showed itself and Haverford piled 4 Up eleven points after the intermission before Swarthmore • 1 could register a point. The home team had very bad luck .js with its shots in the closing minutes, several tosses rolline 1 around the rim of the basket and dropping out. The work J of Melchior, the Red and Black captain, featured the game. His six held goals spelled defeat for Swarthmore. For the losers, Ray Garber starred with five beautiful shots. The following week Rutgers was met and another close game resulted, Swarthmore finally losing out by a 30-27 score. This made three straight defeats for the Garnet. The losing streak was broken in the Delaware game, after a rough, exciting struggle. The new combination which took the floor for Swarth- more made an excellent showing. The hnal verdict was 26-18. Richards was high scorer, while Tipping, playing his first game as a regular, showed promising form. A rather unexpected triumph was registered when Princeton, leader of the Intercollegiate League, was overwhelmed, 33-18. Although Princeton ' s first five men did not get into the game, it is doubtful whether they could have turned back the Garnet, so fine was the form displayed by the Swarth- more players that night. The passing was unusually fast and accurate and the shooting was sure. The entire Quaker team starred, but Garber with five field goals and a foul shot was par- ticularly outstanding. After the win over Princeton, Swarthmore was ex- pected to give Penn a great battle in their annual contest, but the gods decreed otherwise. The suburbanites suffered a reaction after their brilliancy in the two previous games and put up a poor exhibition of basketball, losing 32-14 in a very slow, uninteresting match. Garber was the single bright light in the playing of the Garnet, getting nine of his team ' s points and playing a fine floor game. The season of close games ended with a real thriller. Lehigh, with a powerful team which had run up a streak v.mo LIPPINCOTT Page Two Hundred and Thhiy-five 4,V«%ffi, of seven straight victories, was favored to swamp the Little Quaker five, but was lucky to get off with its winning streak intact. Both teams played fast basketball and the game was nip-and-tuck all the way. As usual, Swarthmore got off to a lead at the start and was on top at the half, 14-10. Lehigh came back strong in the last period and the score was deadlocked several times. With the count 24-24 and just fifty seconds to go a Lehigh guard took the ball and dropped in the deciding goal. Tipping and Richards were the home team stars with four and three field goals respectively. ' Altogether, the 1927 season can be called very satis- ;„.£._ _ factory, although the team played rather inconsistently. tipping In every game, the five showed up well in the first half, trailing at half-time in only two contests. But, for some reason, the players had a tendency to slacken up at the beginning of the second period and several games were lost for this reason. While only two letter men will remain for next year ' s team, several var- sity players who narrowly missed getting letters will be back and should fill the gaps very ably. Much may be expected from Captain-elect Gates, from the freshmen stars. Tipping and McDiarmid, and from Garber and McGuire, as well as several junior varsity men.

Coach Mercer ' s men suffered only one defeat during the season. In the first meet, on April 17th, the Swarthmore cinder path athletes made their initial appearance of the season against Lehigh. An almost perfect day, marred only by a chilly spring breeze, brought a colorful crowd of spectators out to witness the 69-54 victory of the Garnet. Wilcox started the season in the right way by taking an easy first in the initial event, the shot-put. Cliff repeated in the pole-vault while Norton, running a fine race, garnered five more points in the 120-yard high-hurdles. Dutton, forced to take second in the 100-yard dash, more than made up by taking first in the broad-jump, with McKeag second, and first in the furlong, with Rumble second. Captain Lewis placed first, and Per- dew second, in the mile. Lewis, after a brief rest, also ran the half-mile, coming in second to Maxwell. Baker won the discus and Rumble was barely nosed out by a Lehigh man in the quarter-mile. Other points were garnered by Spangler, Clift, Clothier and Deacon. A week later the Garnet relay team, composed of Dutton, Rumble, Maxwell and Kersey, defeated teams from seven other eastern colleges to win the Middle Atlantic States Class B one-mile relay championship. The team, although unable to equal the record set by the 1925 Garnet team in winning the championship, ran the distance in the time of 3 minutes, 32J seconds. Baker, the only Swarthmore man entered in any individual event, vvon the discus with a record throw of 139 feet, 2 inches. On April 30th the Garnet trackmen decisively defeated MERCER, COACH ' y a j M he University of Delaware by a score of 82-44. Swarth- more captured thirteen out of the possible fourteen first places, losing only the javelin. Dutton was the high scorer with firsts in both dashes and a second in the broad- jump. Rumble took first in the quarter and second in the 220-yard dash. Norton won ten more points for the Garnet with firsts in the high-hurdles and in the high- jump. Lewis, running his usual race, easily won the mile. Clothier won the two mile and Max- well broke the tape in the half-mile event with Tollinger second. Wilcox won the shot-put. First places were PERDEw aisQ . von bv Baker in the discus, McKeag in the broad-jump, Clift in the low hurdles and Cliff in the pole-vault. Failure to take a first in the javelin throw, the final event in the dual meet with Wesleyan, forced the Garnet to accept a defeat, the only one of the season, by a 10}4 to 641 score. A new event, the hammer throw, in which no Garnet man was entered, was in part responsible for the defeat. Rumble took the quarter-mile, Lewis broke the tape in the mile a full twenty yards ahead of Perdew, Vander- kleed won the high-jump and Baker placed first in the discus. Maxwell took the half-mile event with Lewis third. Dutton took the verdict in the furlong and in the broad-jump and was second in the century. Clift won the low-hurdles. The last dual meet of the season was held with Haverford on the home field. The contest, which ended in a 64-60 victory for the Garnet, was another of those exciting and colorful clashes between the two old rivals. Dutton again took first in the dashes and second in the broad-jump. Captain Lewis won both the mile and two mile events with Max- well and Clothier, respectively, second in each event. Maxwell won the half-mile with Perdew second. Norton and Lewis of Haverford, fought out the high-jump, tieing at 5 feet, 9 inches. With the score tied. Baker clinched the meet by taking an easy first in the discus, the last event. MAXWELL iSlriiSl. is. ? : Page Ttro Hundred and Forty-one The Little Quaker rivals again met on the cinder path a week later when they fought it out for the intercollegiate crown. The Garnet stars carried off the honors, winning the fourteenth annual meet of the Middle Atlantic States Collegiate Athletic Association, by the narrow margin of one-half point, from Haverford, 29 to 18}4. The points were garnered by Dutton, first in the furlong and in the broad-jump and second in the century; by Norton, third in the high-hurdles; by Baker, first in the discus, by Maxwell, third in the half-mile; and by Lewis, Wilcox and Cliff who placed fifth in the mile, shot-put and pole-vault, respectively. Baker, Lewis, Maxwell and Dutton made the trip to Harvard for the national intercollegiate meet. Baker, the only Swarthmore athlete to reach the finals, took third in the discus in a field of over a hundred starters. The Intercollegiates closed the suc- cessful season. Although three good men. Rumble, Wil- cox and Perdew are lost by graduation, much may be expected of the 1927 team which will again be led by Lewis. April 17. Lehigh . . April 23-24. Penn Relays Delaware . Wesleyan .

LEWIS, COACH iHE 1926 lacrosse season was marked by decisive victories over Oxford-Cambridge, Stevens and the University of Pennsyl- vania. Coach Lewis ' team, al- though losing five of eight games, scored 46 to 42 points of their opponents. All the games were hard fought and close, being decided bv but one or two points in almost every case. Oxford-Cambridge went down to defeat 11-8, while the University of Pennsylvania, Swarthmore ' s perpetual rival, lost for the fourth straight rime in as many years, 10-1. The annual pre-season game was played with the Philadelphia Lacrosse Club. The Garnet, led by Captain Howard, and playing well, won 8-2. Blake, a sophomore, was the outstanding player, scoring three goals for Swarthmore. The opening game of the season was played with Oxford-Cambridge on the front campus, Swarthmore winning 11-8. Despite the muddy field the playing was fast, with Captain Howard scoring early. The count stood 4-4 near the end of the first half, but as the period closed Blake made a goal giving the Garnet a lead which was not again lost. Both teams fought their best and the playing kept the large crowd of spectators filled with enthusiasm. The Garnet stickmen next traveled to Maryland University, dropping the game 4-2. Swope made a goal near the end of the first half and Swarthmore fought hard, but were unable to defeat the Southerners, who scored three times in five minutes during the early part of the second period. Near the end of the game Roberts, a valuable player, broke his collar-bone and was lost to the team for the rest of the season. The next game was with the Army, who overcame Swarthmore by the count of 2-1. Both teams fought bitterly and DeGroot, playing a great game, stopped TOWNLEY, MAN. GER MC FEELY Khalcyon K f m- many shots. The Army gained their lead in the early part of the first period, while Rickards scored for Swarthmore during the second half. The Garnet stopped Baxter and Wilson of the Army for the rest of the game but were unable to tally again after Rickards ' goal. Laughing at the Jinxes of the previous two years, Swarthmore took the next game from Stevens Tech 8-3- The contest at Hoboken was poorly played in general, but Captain Howard exhibited a stellar game on defense and made three goals in addition. By excellent playing the next week Swarthmore held Johns Hopkins, Intercollegiate Champions for the last two years, to the lowest score made during their season. The game, played at Swarthmore, was lost 6-1. Penalties were numerous and Bush made the Garnet ' s only score. The following game with Lehigh at Bethlehem was lost 7-5, despite Swarthmore ' s lead in the first half. Rickards scored a tying goal as the final whistle blew, necessitating an extra five minutes of play, when Lehigh clinched the game by making two goals. The succeeding game, played with Rutgers, was also lost after the Garnet had succeeded in leading through the first half. The playing was rather slow but Bush and Blake again distinguished themselves by scoring two goals each. However, further attacks were resisted and the count stood 6-5. The University of Pennsylvania went down to humble defeat at the hands of the Garnet twelve in the next game played on the front campus. The score, 10-1, was the cleanest victory of the season. Penn was routed, while the Swarthmore stickmen, by fast and steady playing, Tuo Hundred and Forly-six HALCYO pushed ball after ball past the Penn goal tender. Blake scored three goals in succession at the start and again in the second period, making his sea- son total of 11. The last game of the sched- ule was lost to Penn State, 5-3- The Nittonies gained a lead in the first half which the Garnet could not over- come, although Swarthmore made two points to State ' s one in the second period. Rickards scored in each half, bringing his total to eleven and giving him even honors with Blake as high scorer. Others whose work was especially noteworthy were Captain Howard and Captain-elect Dick McFeely, who dis- tinguished himself by his excellent de- fense work. Ford and Palmer deserve mention, as well as Jack DeGroot, goal keeper, who stopped many a difficult ball and saved games on several occa- sions. The season, while not the best Swarthmore has had, was certainly worth while and upheld her reputation in sporting circle?. ivo Hundred and Forly-seven ' HALCYON DE GROOT RESULTS OF THE SCHEDULE Swarthmore April 8.

Bartlett HALCYON 3 6 Baseball Review K OGDEN, CAPTAIN bHUSTER, MANAGER N extremely heavy schedule was -booked by Manager Shuster, con- sisting of twenty games, ten at home and ten away. With only five letter men to use as a nucleus, Coach Dunn had his difficulties. Much credit is due him for the fine manner in which he handled the team in his first year as coach of baseball at Swarthmore. Using as a nucleus, Capt. Ogden, Bartlett, J. Lippincott, Neely, Richards and Fix, and adding such promising material as Adelman, Gates, Petrikin, Baum and Sill, Coach Dunn put out a team worthy of respect. Starting the season with a rush, the team slumped to mediocrity during the following few weeks, but finished the season displaying a fine brand of baseball. This was the heaviest schedule booked for a Garnet team in many years, and the short space between games had its effect. The season was opened with two victories, when the Drexel Institute and College of Osteopathy teams were defeated. The opening game, with Drexel, although loosely played, was a thriller from start to finish, and it was only through timely hitting that Swarthmore emerged victorious in the tenth inning by the score of 11-10. The Osteopathy game was decided in the first three innings, during which seventeen of the eighteen runs scored in the game, were registered. The final score was Swarthmore 12, Osteo- pathy 6. Swarthmore ' s next opponent was the Army. The game took place at West Point, in the face of a 30-mile gale, and under entirely unsatisfactory weather conditions. The game was loosely played, and because of the un- favorable conditions, it was called at the end of four and a half innings, the Army being on the long end of the 18-4 score. The third week of the season found Swarthmore playing three games, win- DUNN, COACH halcyonu LTPPINCOTT ADELMA.V ning one and losing two, extremely close and well played contests. The University of Pennsylvania triumphed 9-7, in a thrilling game featured by a spirited seventh inning rally by Swarthmore. However, Penn came back strong in the eighth, and the fighting Quakers were forced to be satisfied with the short end of the score. Swarthmore staged a comeback in the game with St. Johns on the home diamond, and were easily returned victors 18-5; Gates , the freshman pitcher having the visitors well in hand at all times. The Garnet was defeated by Franklin and Marshall 3-2, in a game played atLancaster. Although the game was close, it was not well played, a total of seven errors being made. Continuing a heavy schedule, the team played four games in one week, being successful in only one. In the first of these, Swarthmore defeated Wesleyan 5-2 in a game featured by Bartlett ' s masterful pitching and the ability of the team to bunch its hits. Bartlett held the opposition to two hits in seven innings. The defeat by Fordham, 14-0, was the severest of the season. The game was replete with errors by Swarth- more, and Fordham scored four runs in the first inning without making a hit. The game with Muhlenberg at Allentown was one of the most excit- ing of the season, the Garnet being downed only after a bitter struggle. This nip-and-tuck battle was won by Muhlenberg in the eleventh inning 4-3- William and Mary College defeated the Garnet on the latter ' s home ground 6-4, in a close game. The NEELi- Garnet ' s inability to take posses- sion of scoring opportunities proved its downfall. The visitors bunched their hits to advantage, and thus pro- vided the winning tallies. The Garnet next defeated Haverford 22-11, and Dela- ware 17-7. In the third game of the week, Swarthmore bowed to Rutgers 7-6 in ten innings. Heavy hitting by Baum and Richards, and effective pitching by Sill featured the team ' s victory over Delaware. The Haverford game was one of ragged playing, thirteen errors being made. f ALCYO The victors made eight of these, and it was only extremely heavy hitting by Richards and fairly effective pitching by Bartlett that made for a Garnet victory. The Rutgers game was very close, and the pitching of Gates encourag- ing. Better support in the field would have given him the victory he sought. After the first few innings, both pitchers twirled airtight baseball. BB TS best-played games of the WisatL mttetrnM year resulted in a win and a loss for Swarthmore. The Garnet defeated La- fayette 4-0, and lost to N.Y.U. 5-4. The game with Lafayette was featured by the extraordinary pitching of Gates, who allowed only four widely scattered hits. He also struck out seven men. The N.Y.U. game was a toss up. Neither team seemed able to get the upper hand. Sill pitched good ball until the eighth when he weakened, and V- - the Garnet was forced to accept defeat. - Showing a better brand of baseball, the Garnet de- feated Ursinus 8-3, and Susquehanna 12-4, before being toppled by Navy 8-1. The brilliant pitching of Eckerd featured the Ursinus game, and a fine rally by Swarthmore turned the game into a Garnet victory. The Susquehanna game resembled the Ursinus contest because in it too, the Garnet achieved success through a rally. The result of the Navy game was never in doubt, the Garnet being completely outplayed by the Annapolis nine. Airtight pitching and heavy hitting by the victors were outstanding. The season closed with a de- cisive 7-3 win over Haverford . Bart- lett pitched the entire game, and bartlett Richards and Ogden featured with some heavy hitting. Of the fourteen letter men, half this number are gradu- ating, leaving an able group on which to build a new team. In addition to these men, much is expected of Burr, W. McFeely, Gillette, Smithers and Owrey, who saw some action this season. CATES S LCYO PETRIKIN MC GUIRE RESULTS OF THE SCHEDULE Swarthmore April 10. Drexel at Swarthmore 11 April 12.

The loss of Captain Bartlett and three other regulars through graduation was very keenly felt. The season started off poorly with two successive defeats, administered by Princeton 5-0, and Navy 3-0. However, the team seemed to have found its stride after this and won four straight games in brilliant fashion, polishing off Chalfonte-Haddon Hall, 4-0, Franklin and Marshall 5-0, and after a close, well-played game, blanking the fast University of Toronto team 1-0. Lehigh followed and was upset 2-1. Then came a reversal of form. Haverford, with one of the strongest teams in years, defeated the Garnet 4-1; Lafayette was played to a 3-3 tie, followed by the Penn State game in which the Nittany Lions won 4-0. The season ended with the Penn Second Team game that decided which of the two teams would take permanent possession of the Championship Cup, for having won the state title four times. It was only after a bitter struggle on a slippery field that Penn came out on top 1-0. This year ' s high scorer was James Muir with a total of four goals, three of which he scored in the Franklin and Marshall game. Brilliant teamwork and heady playing was particularly evidenced by Captain Lippincott, Cates and Coles.

Bob Lindahl set a new college record of 2:59-7 in the 200- yard breast stroke race, and several meets were lost by close margins. The six defeats were due as much to the failu re of veterans to perform up to scratch on account of illness as to lack of capable new men. Stabler, star back stroke man of former years, was able to compete in only one meet because of an injury to his hands, while two other letter men of last year failed to score ten points. Henry Parrish, a freshman, won the fifty yard dash in the first two meets and Stidham, a sophomore, secured his first letter. Swarthmore was again strong in the diving, which was well taken care of by Captain Jack Thompson and Norton. Together they scored thirty-seven points. The meet with Delaware was perhaps the most exciting, although Swarth- more lost, 37-22. Almost every race was close and the score is not indicative of the ability of the two teams. The Garnet relay team of Mitchell, Gillette, Parrish and Shoemaker, broke the college record in the 200-yard race, but since the Delaware quartet won the event the new mark cannot be counted. Henry Parrish, a freshman, won the fifty yard free-style race by inches in the most thrilling event of the day. RESULTS OF THE SCHEDULE Swarthmore Opponents January 8.

The Naval Academy and Lehigh were the two teams to conquer the netmen coached by Charles R. Bagley. The last match of the year was plaved with the University of Pennsylvania who were defeated 4 to 3, giving Swarthmore the first victory she has ever obtained over Penn in tennis. Although winning more intercollegiate matches than last year ' s team did, the Garnet racket men were unable to hold the Middle Atlantic States tennis championship won the previous year when Seymour defeated Dudley in the final round of that tournament. Hanson Hodge was defeated in the semi-finals of the Middle Atlantic tennis tourney held at Haverford Col- lege, while Seymour, defending champion, was unable to compete because of honors examinations, and the crown went to Bucknell. The season was opened with an easv victory over Army 6-1, and Lafayette, Dickinson and Franklin and Marshall were readily overcome 6-0, 4-2, and 6-0 respectively. Then came the smashing victory of the Navy netmen over the Little Quakers 8-1. Johnson, Captain-elect of this year ' s team, scored the only point for Swarthmore. Three more easy victories followed over Wash- ington and Lee 6-1, over Rutgers 5-1, and over Wesleyan 4-2. But on Mav 11th, Lehigh administered a drubbing to Swarthmore on Wharton Courts by a score of 5-2. The last two matches of the season resulted in 4-3 victories over Haverford and Pennsylvania.

Percy. This enthusi- astic support and interest was most gratifying to the players and certainly showed fine spirit. The Varsity this year missed Virginia Brown as center half and ex-captain Lydia Roberts as full back. With the exception of these two and Mary Roberts who played left wing, the squad remained the same as that of ' 25, with the addition of several valuable freshmen. In the first game of the season the Garnet team started out with a bang by defeating Ursinus to the tune of 13-2. Mary Walton kept her last year ' s record for being high scorer. A week later the team had a chance to prove its strength in the game with Merion Cricket Club. The backfield deserved special credit for the innumerable attempts at goals they broke up. Lily Tily, Gert Jolls, Anne Kennedy and Sal Percy were fighting every minute of the game against Anne Townsend, Ail-American Captain, and Kitty Rolin, also an All-American player. At the end of the first half the score was tie, 1-1. Then Merion made another goal, only to be tied once more in the last minute of play by Anne Wain, the game ending with a 2-2 tie. The game with Swarthmore Club resulted in a 5-3 score in favor of the Garnet. Several substitutes were put on the field in this game. Temple gave Swarthmore a hard and exciting game this year. It was spectacular in that two penalty bullys were given. Betty Vaughan did some TF iV ' ■i m. ku PERCY, CAPTAIN LANNING, COACH BUCKWELL, MANfAGER Page Tii ' o Hundred and Sixty-seven no MC CAP FERT Y mighty clever dribbling and succeeded in breaking the tie made by Anna Rickards in the first half. However, Vanetta Rickards, who played for Temple, shot the ball through the goal-posts leaving the score tie when the final whistle blew. The only game lost was to Bryn Mawr. The muddy condition of the field retarded the speed of both teams. The final score was 3-1, an improvement over last year ' s defeat, 3-0. Swarthmore put up a plucky fight and if con- ditions had been more favorable, they would possibly have given the Main Liners an even harder fight for victory. The last game of the season was an overwhelming victory for the Garnet over Beaver College with a 6-1 score. Among those who received their Varsity letter were two freshmen, Anna Rickards, left wing, and Frances Bates, right halfback. Five Swarthmore players, Mary Walton, Betty Vaughan, Anne Kennedy, Lily Tily, and Captain Percy, tried out for the All-Philadelphia Team, and in the face of stiff competition from the club members it was a great honor for two of them to receive places when the teams were chosen. Mary Walton, as left wing, had a place on the All-Philadelphia second team, while Anne Kennedy was on the reserve defense squad. Swarthmore loses but two players by graduation this year. Captain Percy and Virginia Melick. With the wealth of material left to start the 1927 season, the Garnet looks forward to an undefeated team.

For two years now the team has been undefeated. The first two games were taken over without much trouble. Swarthmore Club, the only new oppo- nent this year, went down at 43-27, while the West Philadelphia Club was easily defeated as seen by a score of The next game with George Washing- ton University, on the opponents ' floor proved to be a better balanced and more exciting game. However, the Garnet sextette failed to become frightened on their huge floor and final whistle blew with the score at 27-14- The next game with Temple was played away also, but Swarthmore ' s strong team refused to be upset and showed a remarkable degree of tight and pep during the whole game, which ended 43-6. The Germantown Collegiates made the fifth victory. This game was fast and well-played and ended at 41-21. Again Bryn Mawr was played, this year in the fastest and best game of the season. The Garnet team had to fight every inch of the way. The Bryn Mawr team was much heavier and stronger than any of the other teams so far met, so that it was only by the usual accurate shooting and passing of .AlFERTY, MANAGER JENKINSON, CAPTAIN ' JOLLS enty-thr |! LCYO Swarthmore that enabled them to win by a 44-38 score. The last game was played at home against Adelphi from Brooklyn. The previous year they had given a stiff con- test, but this year they failed to get started until the second half and in the end the score found Swarthmore leading 47-16. This game ended a most successful season; Swarthmore scoring 305 points and her opponents 134. The whole team and substitutes deserve every bit of credit which can be given to them. Four girls won their sweaters for the first time; namely, Anna Rickards, the only freshman, Mary Walton, Esther Felter and Ruey Sieger. The squad will lose their captain, Alice Jenkinson, next year, who has so successfully led her team, and played such an able game each time at center. With Mary Walton as her diminutive side center the middle of the floor was skilfully managed. Gertrude Jolls played her usual alert and clever game as forward and with the help of Anna Rickards, the goals rolled up very quickly. Salmon and Sieger as guards were particular about the number of goals they allowed at their end of the floor. RESULTS OF THE SCHEDULE Swarthmore Opponents February 4.

There was an Italian Carnival with Frances Spence, ' 26, as Queen. Agnes Hood, ' 29 was her Maid of Honor and Esther Howard, ' 27, Elizabeth Winchester, ' 27, Anne Philips, ' 28, and Elizabeth Vaughan, ' 28, were the attendants. The stage of the amphitheatre was an Italian villa garden and beyond the garden wall, revellers passed to and fro for it was Carnival Day. Every- where there was singing, dancing and revelling. The revellers made way, for the Queen and her attendants had entered the garden to watch the cele- bration. The gentry were eager to entertain their Queen. For her pleasure they danced a stately gavotte. Suddenly one of them spied a flower girl. He called her and she came bearing her tray of bright flowers. Having seen the Queen of the Carnival she skipped away to bring her sisters. They came in smiling and coaxed the Queen to buy a flower as they danced before her. The peasants too did honor to their Queen. Quaintly dressed, they bowed, nodded and danced before her throne. Then in stole Columbine (Betty Miller, ' 26) but not alone for Harlequin (Virginia Melick, ' 27) and Pierrot (Virginia Brown, ' 26) followed her. There was a lively flirtation but Pierrot had little luck. From the bazaar came mannequins to display their soft and bright shawls. Suddenly there was a sound of tambourines in the air. It grew louder and louder and then in whirled the gypsies and danced their tarantella for the Queen. Two banditti (Caroline Robison, ' 29, and Olive Deane, ' 28), the boldest pair, ventured their luck at begging and then flaunted their gains in exultation. The dance burst forth anew — faster and faster. With a leap of laughter it ended, engulfed the willing Queen and followed her off to the Carnival. h , ■ [•t;- - Page Two Hundred and Sevenly-six Feature Page Two Hundred and Seventy-seven For the Very Young Staunchan Gray could drink skimmed milk, His wife could drink chlorine, And so between the both of them They licked the tumblers clean.

Ray Hustle Jays, ' 28 Page Ttio Hundred and Eighty-two TJalcyo Hundred and Eigh 192-6 Football Review The rugby football team of Swarthmore College, and its able coach Pug Pittenger are certainly to be congratulated on having completed a wonderful season, I mean, they done darn good for the shape they was in. Although the team counts among its triumphs victories over such strong aggregations as the Y.M.C.A., Home for Aged Chess Players, and The Interior Decorators Association of Shamokin, yet the heart-breaking defeat suffered at the hands (and feet) of Jenkins Institute for Quaker Missionaries to the Laplanders, rankles in the breasts of our brave fire-fighters. The picture shown above was snapped soon after the battle. It shows the boys, licked but smiling. Pride wit punishments was the title so ■well applied to it bv Lazerus Mercer, the little Jew boy who carried the bottles for the team and also the graduate manager. The men read from left to right, as is customary. They are Teddy Best, Tommy Clack, Percy Richards, Rollo Ward, and Jaimee Tomlin. Rollo looks, and is, in pretty bad condition for a Phi Bete. The burly bruiser vho played opposite him must never have seen a Sunday School, for a more unprincipled ruffian never stepped on green grass. This shut-eye bit Rollo ' s left third toe severely. Rollo, however, kept his self-control, which so infuriated the brute that he swore horribly. The vigilant referee heard him, and he was immediately excused from the game. Jaimee Tomlin accounted for his black eye by the fact that he ran into a door in the locker room between halves. His explanation is, of course, accepted. The other three open students emerged from the game with bodies unscathed, but with minds firmlv determined to win the rubber next vear. I ALCYO 192.7 Baseball The above mezzo tint is an all too faithful reproduction of the bunch of bat-boys who last year wore the college ' s baseball suits. The barge pilot in the center, with the at- tractive bicycle, one Lippincott by name, captained this cosmopolitan bunch of Concords. To the trusty piece of aluminum which he so fondly grasps by the antlers is due no small part of the credit for the rumor that John is a fast man. The classic poses struck by the deck- hands on either flank are inordinately characteristic of McGuire and Adelman, under which innocent names these two cut-throats cloak their real identity. The pair of them are aesthetic to the core. Beau Richards, the beauty with the golf racquet, has been caught by the camera in a typical mood. Pinky never so much enjoys himself as when he and his trusty little side- kick, which he so lovingly fondles in his mitts, are out for a quiet stroll in the woods. The graceful nymph in full relief answers to no other name than Gates, and is used at odd moments in catching practice. The reserved-appearing Swedish youngster at the left rear — a daffodil called McCook — is in reality a regular on the strong and mighty Travellers Club. (His picture is used here by special arrangement with his managers in the hope that a careless observer may mistake this wrecking crew for a baseball team). Disregarding the fact that their best score was 16-1 with these pansies in the air holding the big 1, the season must be acknowledged a howling success. jl ALCYO Bang! bang! and two Garnet men bit the dust The Swarthmore lacrosse clubbe ably lived up to its name during the 1927 season. In no contest was the Garnet team out-swatted. Against several colleges Swatmore, although possessing much less equipment in the form of knives, hatchets and axes, nevertheless gave more than they received in the form of personal damages. Trees and even a Bush aided the Swatmore cause by hindering the other team ' s attack. The hardest game of the season was that with the Merry Lion yellow backs. Their camouflaged uniforms enabled them frequently to sneak up and hurl a hatchet at one of our unarmed men before he could raise a finger to ward off the blow. But once more Swatmore finally triumphed, capturing 17 Merry Lion teeth, 3 heads, 4 legs, and 3 arms, to 5 quarts of blood, 2 ears, 3 eyes and one nose lost in the good cause which made Swatmore ' s margin of victory, one badly bent and rusted collar-bone.

In fact, I haven ' t any Quaker ancestors, and it ' s quite hard for a girl without Quaker ancestors to come to Swarthmore unprotected.

The safety of the Girard Trust Company, one of America ' s oldest financial institutions which has passed through the darkest days of our country ' s history, may be assumed. Some idea of the Service offered may be gained by a visit to the Company ' s banking floor. There you will see with what celerity your business may be transacted even at the busiest time of the day. The client, who finds ordi- nary banking hours inconvenient, may transact his bank- ing by mail. Another point to be considered is the desirability of estab- lishing connections with an institution, which offers not only a banking service, but a comprehensive trust serv- ice as well. Your account, whether large or small, will be cordially welcomed. Interest at the rate of 2 per cent is credited periodically on accounts carrying proper balances.

Some stockings were hung By a window -with care. Still hopelessly wet, So she ' d borrowed a pair. One nervously strutted. And powdered her nose, Another affected A state of repose. When all of a sudden Arose quite a clatter — The telephone rang, A most serious matter. All sprang toward the object Then gasped in suspense; And so it continued With atmosphere tense. The air reeked with perfume, While powder and rouge Fell on everyone ' s bureaus In quite a deluge. One girl prayed for dampness To bring out her wave. Another for drv air Her marcel to save. Some popular damsels Did not wish to go Except for the favors Which lessened their woe. Do you s ' pose he will like me? One timid girl said. Of course, said her room-mate Nodding her head. I waited and waited. Til everyone went, And it seemed half the evening Was already spent. He finally called but I told him to wait Though I ' d been all attired Since a quarter to eight. I thought, as I started. How lucky boys were To miss all this bustle And usual stir. But I know that I ' d miss it If I were a boy For without it each formal Would lose half its iov.

That, said the split pea, is Parrish Hall. Oh, don ' t be silly, giggled Alice, It doesn ' t look a bit like a Paris shawl. My goodness, replied the exponent of the 57 varieties, can ' t you understand plain English? I said, Parrish Hall. Oh, said Alice, and her eyes widened to mere slits, now that you mention it, it does look something like a parasol, but I should think it would be pretty hard to carry it with you. You don ' t carry it with you, goofy, remonstrated the split pea, The girls live there, you carry the memory with you. But what do they do? queried Alice. Oh, talk about the men. (As a matter of fact the split pea wronged the girls because they talk about lots besides the m en. Honestly they do. Clothes for instance, and all that sort of thing.) Oh, are there men at the college? said Alice. By this time she was feeling a little embarrassed for asking so many questions, but she really wanted to know. Yes, said the vegetable soup, (for a potato and an onion had been added to him). There are men at the college and also a few boys from the east. Tee hee! sniggered Alice, you can ' t fool me. You ' re an open scholar from Indian- apolis! (You see she wasn ' t so dumb after all.) The vegetable soup swelled considerably as he replied, with a smile which wreathed his whole face, Wide open.

Broad Street and Germantown Avenue (above Erie Ave.) PHILADELPHIA April 24th. We had a fire drill last night. I was already for it because Bob told me he was going to have one. He said he wanted to see how the co-eds looked when they were really themselves. But Bob didn ' t see me as I really am, because I didn ' t put my hair in crimpers, or smear my face with complexion salve, until after the fire drill. And I mean I look quite 99-44 100% better without crimpers and zinc ointment. April 26th. It was a wonderful spring day today, one of the early spring days when the halls are lined with fussers looking lovingly into °° ' ' ' beaer ' ' each other ' s eyes. I won ' t mention names like Moose, and Mac, and Herb, and Pollv, and Ted, and Bob and his latest flame, but anyway they were all there. Doc and I started to look lovingly into each other ' s eyes in the halls, and then we decided we could do it better in Crum Woods. So we went out in the Crum Woods. So then we had to go very far to get away from the rest of the college. Even the members of Student Conduct and the wild-eyed Woolman woman haters couldn ' t resist the call of the Crum. And Doc was so intreeged that he wanted me to wear his D.U. pin, and he said I was the only girl he had ever loved, so of course I didn ' t believe him, as I know he has loved lots of others — but really, I don ' t see why a girl with the good looks and the charm that I have shouldn ' t wear a D.U. pin, so I said yes I would. Anyway, a kiss on the hand makes you feel good, but a D.U. pin lasts longer. Oh — yes — I forgot we stumbled over Batsie and Abie eating their supper out in the woods. I am wondering why the rest of the couples don ' t have their supper in the woods, too, and keep them company. veiily-stx De Haven Townsend Established 1874 MEMBERS NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE PHILADELPHIA STOCK EXCHANGE 52 Broadway New York 14 1 5 Walnut Street Philadelphia ee Hundred and Titenty i ALCYO Parker ' s Music Store 1 1 East State Street Media, Pa. it is musical, U ' e have it The Orthophonic Victrola, M usical Instruments, Strings and supplies Call Media 83 1 Ye Olde Print Shoppe Gleave L.

I walked very slowly down the asphaltam with Miss Bronc today. She says she remem- bered the May Day a long time ago — about 50 yrs. when she first came here. I like Miss Bronc a lot, and I really mean I ' m sorry she won ' t be back next year, because the people who have a pull with her will miss her. And I had an aunt and several uncles go here that she was very fond of, and so I don ' t believe I will take French any more. May 4th. Really, for a girl who has the poise and sensitive feelings I have, today was an awful day. The Deans actually tried to tell me that I was in the wrong. It seems I am not sup- posed to walk along Crum Woods at night with my boy friends. The Womens Stude Gov ' t tried to tell me, but they got discouraged, and turned me over to the Dean with the blue eyes and the blue necktie to match. I was so intreeged with the blue necktie that I had to laugh. In his presents, I have to laugh that a man with such a prettv blue necktie could say such intelligent sounding words. But he didn ' t appreciate my laughing, and I was in an awful quandary. Really it was the result of fate. And so then he told me to talk to Dean Blanshard, and Dean Blanshard was so sincere that I really began to be sorrv. So now I don ' t think I will walk in Crum Woods again any more, because she really has persuaded me not to. I might be a bad example for the other members of the college who haven ' t the really noble ideals I have. Page Three Hundred and Thirty-si Theodore E.

I stood in the hall a lon g time today talking to Mr. Ross, and I was so intreeged I didn ' t see all my friends go by and wink at me. He is really too cute looking for a professor. And then I bumped into Mr. Klees going down to the Post Office, and we talked a long time. A lot of my friends went by, and I hope they were impressed. Only of course I was so in- treeged listening to Mr. Klees ' New England and Old England accent that I didn ' t notice them. It ' s really the result of fate.

( Answers on page 364 Higher Education Our setting consists of one of those drear holes surrounded by four walls in the upper regions of Parrish, which for want of a better name we call a class-room. At the front of the room stands the usual nondescript desk, bespeaking much, much better days. Suspended from the ceiling directly above the desk is a flying trapeze. Travelling rings, regularly spaced, hang about the room. A horizontal bar is erected at one side of the room, while rows of Indian clubs and exercising weights decorate the opposite wall. A motley group of the younger set are seated in the scattered chairs. The front row is composed of freshmen. That they are freshmen is evidenced by the fact that they alone of the room ' s occupants are busily poring over their notes. The more rational-appearing beings sitting toward the rear of the room — that is, the upper classmen — are either fussing with the young lady in the next seat, or engrossed in the daily paper. Sound of trumpets and hautboys. An ordinance is shot off within. Enter the professor carrying an over-night bag of ostrich skin. He removes his cretonne lounging-robe, and expertly flips the trench helmet he wears onto the gas jet. He receives a deafening ovation as he stands before the class garbed in pea-green tights, mauve jersey, and flame colored stockings.

May 15th. I didn ' t write my diary on the house party, because I was to busy. And I mean I am now another Kappa Sig sweetheart with a Kappa Sig pin. Of course, I took off my D.U. pin when people began to think Doc and I were really serious. And my boy friend wanted me to meet his mother. I am always quite intreeged at the idea of meeting gentlemen ' s mothers. Anyhow a kiss on the cheek makes you feel good, but a Kappa Sig pin lasts all summer. Oh — yes, we were playing golf, and we passed Prexie and he was actually beating someone on the golf course, and he was grinning all over. Prexie, with all his intellectual, social, and athletic accomplishments is really quite a remarkable man. May 19th. I have really got to begin studying. The Phi Delts are going to help me, for they are quite intellectual. I always like to improve my mind when I am with brainy people. May 21st. I was talking to a lot of Phi Sis today, and they tell me that Mr. Clothier is really quite a wonderful man to give the college such a fine auditorium, and I ' m sure I for one ap- preciate Mr. Clothier ' s unselfish attitude. For I mean Mr. Clothier really is playing god- father to the college, for every thing we need he gives us. ?

Higher Education (Continued from page 345 He tosses his bag backward over his head. It lands on the desk where it opens auto- matically. The professor removes great pads of dirty yellow paper from the bag and turns to the class, smiling evilly. When I went to yell, he says, and crossing to the travelling rings, he swings back and forth over the heads of the class, unmercifully showering them with sheets of the hideously colored paper. I want you, on these papers, says the professor, as he does a cut-off, and gracefully catches the trapeze, to give me some idear of the day ' s assignment. Just what was the Roman villar, and why? He exits right with a series of flip-flops. The members of the class who have not already filled their papers with pictures of battleships and chorus girls, begin to draw their conceptions of a bacchanalian revel. The professor re-enters wiping suspicious white suds from his lips. He limbers up with a pair of Indian clubs and leaps to the trapeze. He begins to swing. Green scum to Calvin Coolidge, he shouts, and falls backward from his perch. The class gasps, but he catches himself by his toes, and continues swinging, his head down, while a malicious grin over- spreads his face. The class is uproarious in their applause. With a deft twist of his body, he drops to the floor, landing by some miracle on his feet. He turns on the portable radio set contained in his overnight-bag and performs a most creditable toe-dance on the desk. The bell interrupts the performance. The class files out singing The Battle Hymn of the Republic. The professor trots to his shower.

Really, it ' s too terrible to think about but I suppose it ' s the result of fate. And next year I will have to get myself some new boy friends. But Doc said he would be my boy friend next year, and he asked me to wear his D.U. pin again, so I felt better. He said I could have it as long as I want it, and he hoped I ' d keep it forever. I mean I really am very fond of Doc. And now, having told all the events of college, I -will end my diary. I hope no one reads it, because it ' s so personal, and someone not knowing all about my brain and charm might not understand. So now I mean I will leave off thinking about Swarthmore — except for the D.U. pin. I mean a kiss on the lips makes you feel good, but a D.U. pin lasts forever. ' .

The words M font chase, platen, make-ready, pica, Goudy or Bodoni mean no more to him than the words lapa- rotomy, polyuria, myopia or cholelithiasis. This is re- grettable in a way because the art of printing is a fas- cination; and if you could chase this man in to us, he would see that fascination. He would see, now, a blank piece of paper. Then — presto! — he would have words and pictures to make him want the things they tell about and show. Ours is the business of preparing and producing this type of printed matter. There is ability here to take your product and to present it to the man of the streets in a printed form that will catch his eye, absorb his interest, stir his desire and urge him to action.
