The NaughtyaFive as Junior Class again was known as glorious. Two souls of hers, from all .the ranks, were called to'be athletic leaders: Clyde Blair, the fleet of foot, was chosen leader of the track; while Speik, the hero of much gridiron-fame. was called to lead the moleskins. Within its ranks the choice of them .who were to lead their number isthere affixed, as 'twas before, with no change in the order: j. L. Brode', the managerial prexie, and Dudley Bard, the black-eyed youth with cheeks so rosy colored, and also gracious Miss Blanche Felt, and nimble Ernie Quantrell. Such was the list. No need to ask, then, whence had come her spirit ever glorious. Long time wore on wherein great deeds of divers sorts were finished. A Cap 87. Gownfl of goodly grace, was issued fair andritimely, and for its merit praise is due to Sherman and to Riley; Sherer, known as Texas Pete, and Wiry Mort and others of much grace of soul, whose names are here omitted. tiThe Pahli Kahn, of college fame. was rendered in a fashion which, were it not for Juniors strong, had failed for lack of talent. Large measure of success was due to Blakey and to Gregory, as well as unto Henry D. and Bevan, and such others as deftly there in Mandel Hall did grace the comely theatre. And for their final year of toil and labor all together, they chose as leaders of the class those souls who most for them had done, and for their Alma Mater. Upon the rolls the names are found of toilers Blair and Riley; of Helen Free- man, as their scribe, who oft has played at basket-ball, and led in divers meetings; of stanch Lee Maxwell, strong and true, to cherish whatsoever funds are gathered in th' exchequer. And finally, as orator, by dint of many stern debates and public contests oral, one Joseph L. Lewinsohn did gain the place of spokesman for the Naughty-Five.' And thus, as Seniors well may all these souls be known as ones who did things brave and true, all for their Alma Mater. And when tradition weaves its net around their field of action within the realm of college life, deep in-vits meshes will be found the knot which ever closely bound their spirit true and loyal. Here is it, all full clear explained: HNaught-Five, be ever glorious ! 29

effort strive to hold in check those students whom it pleased to tear away so sweet an emblem. And, so goes the legend, were't not for them of elder class who dampid the ardour of the Naughty-Five, that sign, in very surety, would still be found upon its comely standard. Aye, so 'tis said. But With all candor be it said of them, they strove as it did well befit Uye glorious Naughty-Five ! And there be other feats of Naughty-Five which cannot here be mentioned, save but with merest observations. In friendly strife with Naughty-Four within the confines of the space wherein the youths of swarthy frame did build them mighty muscles, full well the lads of newer date did vanquish their opponents. V and once again they proved their claim to let themselves be known within the realm of student life and be yclept uye glorious Naughty-Five. They did record the merits and defeats of such strife-albeii the contests were conducted with a right good willeby certain honors which they named as points? So went it With the'NaughtyeFive to win this strife athletic, by the goodly margin of some fifteen well-earned points. Full well are known the names of them that did this feat, but it is meet that they should be recorded. They were these souls: One C. A. Blair and Hugo Friend, and the none Cahill, known as itMortP Aye, and also Speik and Ernie Quantrell, as well as that Magee yclept as HMag,u and Hatfield, Sullivan, et at. And so, in verity, well may they be yclept ye glorious Naughty-Five. And, whilst those men of stalwart frame did honor to their class in groups which were assembled to contest in feats of strength together, still others met and formed amongst themselves a guild to talk things over. 'Twas known of men as a debating club. and did. by dint of toil and worthy effort, full well its part in making and in bringing'out those men who found in making public speech their best endeavor. Amongst the men who labored in the guild were such good souls as Paul A. Walker, George 0. Fairweather, Vernon C. Beebe, Leo F. Wormser, et a1. Thus went it with Naught-Five long space. e And as the months woreron and glory followed glory, whether on the field of strife athletic or in the realm of strife scholastic, the Naughty-Five did play its goodly part within the field of action. The second year of their assembling found them with a right good will all vigilant and toiling. A second group of leaders they did choose, whose names are here recorded Obey being placed without disguise and following such order as was made abovey. The fleet Mort Cahill, and Fred Speik the Tackling End, and next Miss Campbell, called iiCorinnef' and lastly good old Gridf, whose name one finds is Gridleyf, Throughout its second year Naught-Five did win more glory. With noble pride they served the end of their great Alma Mater. ln track and football shone they forth, according to the records. Why, look you! Such brave souls as these were striving for her glory! Lee Maxwell, Terry, Speik, Blair, Friend and Cahill, et al. And also, in the realm of music fair, the Naughty-Five did act full well her part; one Henry Sulceris voice was heard in concert, as in opera. And Dudley French and j. Weddell and Brown and Wells and Harriseethese souls did frequently enchant, by music sweet and comely, such folk as used to come withal to listen to their rendering. 28
