SUTFIN Sizty-one TUERLUE U History of the Class of 1919 Foreword I am a historian. Yep, just like Bancroft, Gibbon, Macauley and Pres- cott; but unlike them in the respect that I have to write a history not of wars, nor of events, but a history of men. My task iz a hard one, and well I know it, for if I, or any of my distinguished brother historians attempted to chronicle all the achievements, as well as mischievements, of the class of 1919, Doc Elliott's 5-foot shelf would have to be lengthened, and his Har- vard Classics would have to be junked. You, who read this, must admit it is a difficult task to condense volumes to paragraphs, but inasmch as I am a son of 19, and '19 never quits, I am tackling the job with the true 19 spirit. Chapter IOur Infaney It was Thursday, September 16, 1915, when the class of 1919 entered Delaware College, and it took just twenty-four hours for the entire college to know that we had entered, for on the night before, one A. Marconetti proceeded to acquire the hoxing championship of the college by cleaning up the best the Sophs had, and Mike Plam proceeded to smother whatever ambitions the Sophs held in the way of wrestling. After this auspicious beginning, class scraps happened one after another, and 1919 came off vie- tor in the majority of them. The climax of the class serapping was reached when our President, Herb Weldin, went without his Freshman cap: a feat no class president before or since has achieved, We started a college precedent our first year by holding a series of class smokers. It was in these class smokers that we decided to make the Blue Hen an annual pub- lication, that we decided to hold a class banquet every year, that we planned our Prom and Farewell Hop, and that we came to know each other as classmates. Chapter IIAthletics Our contributions to the athletic record of the college have been many. We started off by trimming the Sophs in the annual football game by the score of 12-0, and followed up this vietory by winning the inter-class track meet. Our class record in athletics was not a brilliant one, but one of which we can be justly proud, for it was when fighting for our class that the 19 never quits spirit was developed, and it is that spirit that has led us to the pinnacle we now hold. Those of our number who carried Delaware's colors on the foothall field are Marston, Moore, Plam both Mike and Louie, Stewart, Mackie, Longland, Crothers, Weldin, Smart, and Fitzpatrick. To track we gave Captain'Specs Craig, Gad Hearn, Marston and Fitzpatrick. In- 18 iwizty-two TMEGLUE UE History of the Class of 1919 CONTINUED cidently, Fitz' holds the college record in the half-mile. We gave to bas- ketball Pierson and Heinie Marston. Marston captained the greatest team Delaware ever had on the wooden ways. In baseball we were repre- sented by Morrie Pierson, Mitchell, Taggart, and Bill Stewart. A record of which we are justly proud is that through the efforts of our class tennis was recognized as a sport. The feeling for tennis was only luke- warm until Humphrey and McMillan got in the game; now due to their ef- forts tennis has come to stay. Chapter IT11919 and the War When the call to arms came '19 was ready, and the response to that call cut our numbers from sixty to forty-two. As our Junior year pro- gressed our ranks grew thinner and thinner, so that when the summer of 1918 rolled around all but about twelve of our number were either in active service or attending an R. O, T. C. eamp. The members of our class whose names appear on the Honor Roll of the college are: R. B. Aker, I. H. Boggs, W. 8. Fitzpatrick, 8. A. Hamilton, V. F. Hearn, E. F, Hudson, G. G. Kalmy, H. R. Lindsay, J. A. Mackie, A. E. Marconetti, R. T. Marshall, H. McKay, E. H. Messick, M. W. Plam, T. Raughley, W. F. Scorah, W. G. Siler, 0, E. Spruance, W. Stewart, R. D. Sturgis, H. D. Suer, R. Y. Taggart, J. P. Truss, C. R. Tunnell, F. H. Tyson, C. C. Warner, C. I. Wright, R. C. Wright, T. R. Booth, H. W. Downing, E. E. Ewing, H. W. Marston, J. G. McMillan, E. E. Plumley, G. W. Wilson. Of this number, Mackie, Sturgis, Tunnell, Downing, Ewing, Marston and MacMillan have returned to college. Besides those of our own number, our class roll contains the names of three members of previous classes who gave up their college work to get in the big push. These men are L, L. Smart, '17; J. R. Gum, '18; and M. R. Mitchell, 18. Chapter IV-Coneclusion. I have made an honest endeavor to give the facts as we have lived them. In giving these facts 1 have committed sins of both omission and commission, but I erave my readers pardon. The spirit of 19 is in me, and you must remember it was the promptings of this spirit that induced me to write this history. And now that we are about to leave these halls, we point with pride to our record as Sons of Delaware. Perhaps at some fu- ture date our record will be surpassed. We hope so0, for then we will know gome other class has done something for Delaware.

READ ABOUT US SEPARATELY JoHN WHITE ANDERSON, 3RD., 1 A Electrieal Engineering Wilmington, Delaware Secretary Class Iy ; Class Baseball I0 ; Glee Club; Mandolin Club; Cor- poral II; Sergeant I11; Blue Hen Bouard, Johnnie, Jack LRI It is usually the custom when talking about our famous contemporaries to compare their work with something done by some prehistoric personage and to tell how much superior is the contemporaries work. But with John White, the third, it's different. He eclaims, and admits that his claims are justified, too, that Volta, Ampere, Thomas A., and a hundred others far too insignificant to mention, ain't got nothing on him; and as for the man who invented graphic staticsEuclid he thinks it washe just didn't know what he was talking about. That magic word, the third, tacked on to his name, is the secret of his prowess, The first two didn't know nothing, s0 he gays, but as for him, well, modesty forbids. John the Third's favorite pastime is making love, and it is rumored in high circles that he must be on speaking terms with at least two of the fair sex. When John the Third is not making love he may be seen on Frazer Field dressed as for baseball, with a bat in his hand, of course. Someone tells the story to the effect that onee John the Third was seen to appear for the class baseball team, but that the referee did not allow him to play for fear that it would be giving undue advantage to the opposing team. It is also on record that when John the Third was class secretary, he was observed to have taken the minutes at a class meeting twice. But really John the Third is a good old scout and a most efficient worker, so much so that it is re- ported-on good authority, toothat he has the largest collection of dance programs in the State, having picked them up in misecellaneous guarters. Asg soon as he gets a roomful John the Third says that he is going to throw them all away. Eighty-seven PAUL TAYLOR ARBUCKLE, JR. Chemical Enginecring Cherry Hill, Maryland Varsity Track III: Winner Inter- Class Medal for best all-around Track Athlete; Serub Track I, IT ; Engineer- ing Society; Chess Club; Footlights Club,; Class Track I, II, III ; Varsity Club; Holder High Jump Record; Class Secretary IV, Arbie, Roscoe Arbie hails from Cherry Hill, though he is in no wise related to George Washington. In his native realm Arbie oceupies a social ape-x, and is looked upon by the Hill-dwellers as the ace among Beau Brummels, but the joker takes the trick. When first exhibited at Delaware he pre- sented the appearance of a diluted drink of water, but after two years at the Commons he has developed a physique mueh akin to that of a mateh. During his first few years in school Arbie's grinning map was ever to be found peering across a checkerboard in Purnell Hall. Due to this sedentary existence Otazgo's eyes were the cause of his voluntary ?7 retire- ment from our midat. Upon his return, however- track superceded checkers, and Arhie has built for himself an enviable reputation on the cinder path. Today he is the proud wearer of the var- sity D, and also of the interclass track medal given to the best all-around track and field man in college. As a high jumper Arbie holds the col- lege record. Just as he overcame all the rough spots in his first two years at Delaware, so will Arbie revolutionize Cherry Hill when, upon graduation, he returns to the haunts of the Ar- buckle forefathers.

Big Dick, Buddy Big Dick, ex-shave-tail and promoter of Freshmen-Sophomore seraps, claims little Camden as his domocile. During his Freshman year he was a material aid in squelching certain unruly Sophs. In fact such was his prow- ess along pugnacious lines that he was elected to the exalted office of Sopho- more president, and led the class victoriously in several mix-ups. While pursuing his studies in the Arts course, Dick has plenty of time for mang- ling the ivories to the immortal tune of Chop-sticks, to the great distress of his spell-bound audience. On the basketball floor he eould, by his giraffic reach, pluck the ball from mid-air, and because of this asset was invaluable to Delaware's cage performers, He is one of the live wires of the class and always willing to have a fracas or a party. As a mem- ber of the class track, football and baseball teams, Dick has worked as faithfully for 1920 as he has done for the college by his varsity pasketball playing, his services to the Student Couneil, and his general interests and activities. In later years every member of the class of 1920 will remember Big Dick as a real man and a real friend worthy to represent Delaware in the world.

Dame MNature is a queer old bird with an acute sense of humor, and we imagine she must have grinned broadly when she first saw Alex as a most puzzling specimen of her handiwork. We are really keen about complicated things and the more compli- cated they are, the better we like them. We like them because it amuses us to try to find out how they work. This iz why we like Alex. Never vet have we been able to discover just how he works his diverse oceupations, and keeps everything going so well at the same time. Hiz foremost oceupation iz drawing picturesif you don't believe us, just examine this bookand he iz most temperamental about this hobby. In fact, rumor has it that he is totally unable to do any work unless he is robed in a lavendar gilk dressing pown lined with lemon yellow and tied with a rose colored rope. When he is not daubing souls on canvas, and in need of exercise, he takes a few turns around the campus, shooting up the mlace--wii.h a camera, of ecourse. We are plad to be able to announce that the campus has now recovered from its initial embarrass- ment, and is now accustomed to seeing his attenuated structure meandering over its greensward. When Alex iz not indulging in any of the aforementioned oecupa- tions he may be found in the Green Room directing the would-be aspirants to histrionic fame and relating his experience while treading the boards. Occasionally, when he wishes to curb his temperament, Alex doffs his robes and sojourns to the classroom where Greek and English eleven are his favorite sports. Alex says that he comes from Wilmington, and he tells many strange tales of the nativez of that curious place. We have a suspicion, however, from his eurious vernacular, that at some earlier date he must have taken a journey from Old Caledonia. Like most Scots- men, Alex is a steadfast and willing worker, and we have him to thank for the Footlights Club at Delaware today. We all have learned to like this tall son of Scotin and when we say all we mean all. A pentle- man, a scholar, a lover of the beautiful; and the pe- culiar thing is that he draws entirely by ear, never took a lesson in his life.

Charlie, 3lide Rule Charlie Charlie, peering through several thicknesses of achromatic pane, may be seen frantically scurryving thither and hence, hunting for his pet slide rule, perhaps to compute the extent of his damage to the physics laboratory Sandy McGougan and Dinty Koeber will furnizh full reference on this subject at request. But the cause of his hurry might be either a prospec- tive dollar for the Lightfoots Club, or a hurry call for another ad. for The Blue Hen. Most often the hurry is all in an effort to get some advance copy for The Review for the week after next. But Charlieworth being the only animated log table in existence, is a valuable asset to Doc Mefzougan in figuring how long it would take a man to walk off a slippery pond, disre- garding friction. Neverthewhole, in spite of the fact that his college work absorbs much of his time, he still pays some attention to the pekingese poodle and the Chess Club. Charlie has distinguished himself as a scholar, and by his ever-evident smile and willingness to help a class- mate, he has won 4 place in the heart of every Delaware student. As a member of The Blue Hen Board, and as editor of The Review, he has rendered valuable service to his Alma Mater.

Hiz enormous appetite for candy has been the cause of the advance in the cosl of wares at the book foundry ; but no doubt thiz appetite iz due to the strenuous exertions of cheer leading, for Bob is a cheer leader of no mean ability, and always has the crowd on its feet when anything is hap- pening.

Cullia George comes from the Pennsylvania town of Elkview, in the wilds of Chester County. Though from a wild country George i3 no wild man, but a quiet, earnest worker. The worst fault George has is his habit of asking when you are going to pay your class dues, a most embarrassing habit. Cully is wedded to the Delaware Farmer, and it is through his inde- fatigable efforts that so many good issues of that paper have been pub- lished. George, besides being a conscientious worker is also inclined to be a shining spot at which many fair maidens in Delaware and Pennsylvania aim their shafts. Forgetting for awhile his finances, he steps into his road- ster and it's a wiz and starts out to see his lady fair. His fame as an entertainer has spread far and near, and whenever we want George we have the operator page George at about thirty homes and we finally get him to tell him to do this and that for the class, And he can do a whole lot of things worth while. He is modest and unas- suming and as one prof. says, If he'd wake up a little oftener than twice a year he'd make a fine lad.

He is such a quiet lad that we really don't know much about him, but if he hails from Wilmington, why that settles it; he's all right. We do know that Charlie is a Beau Brummel of the first degree, for many are the stories that come to our unbelieving ears of his conguestz among the fair sex, espe- cially at the W. C. D. Just at the beginning of his Freshman wyear, Charlie met with a serious accident which kept him out of college for a full term, but he came back strong and now stands high in all his classes. We have heard very little from him, but vet we all like him because he has been plugging away developing into a fine stu- dent and a true man. As assistant advertising manager of The Blue Hen, Charlie proved to be a wizard at grabbing ads. from the T. B. M. of Wil- mington. If any athletic event went by without Charlie being present it would break his heart, we imagine. He iz a szport enthusiast, and as a swimmer he has few equals in college. Quiet, yet foreeful ; serious, yet with a hidden sense of hu- mor; we have become used to seeing Charlie get what he goes after.

Winterthur, known only to Aggies, is a town north of Wilmington, consisting of the railroad station and all the farms within a five-mile radius. George became famous and justly so when at the last mid-years he contributed we won't say how many books to the library. George is also chief source of worriment to the county road build- ers, for he has worn no less than three paths down Depot Road to the col- lege farm in his three years here. As an old maid in I Hope You Like It, George made such a hit that Hazo fell in love with him. George and Baron are also a constant worry to Doe Palmer. When George isn't eating the bacteria in the lab, Baron is running in to take George on a testing trip, a moonlight, or a straw ride. His one ambition is to make an A in one subject. Our advice is a course in astronomy as a last hope. He is full of fun and in on every- thing. A plugger who has gotten there by hizs own efforts is George Amos Ely., He'll stick and make good because he has a lot of fighting spirit and a lot of good, hard, common sense. Ninely-siz HARVEY LEWIS FELL Agriculture Wilmington, Delaware Agricultural Club; Delaware Farm- er; Glee Club; Covrporal II. Harv When Harvey Lewis Fell came to college he was a fairly reasonable sort of boy. But in those days he didn't know the women very well. Then the trouble was done before any of us realized it in time to save the poor boy, and the ladies ruined him. With tears streaming from his eyes he came to us one day in that first year of our college life and confided to us his terrible worry lest the sophs keep him down that night and make him miss his date. We knew then that he was done for and ever after we have gazed upon him with sorrowful eyes as an example of what might have been, but isn't. Harvey is a dyed-in-the-wool ag. He is one of those ags who take the course with the real intention of one day becoming a farmer,a rare thing these days. His greatest delight is to climb upon the back of some old nag being a shrimp he generally requires a step-ladder to accomplish this feat and work until the perspiration streams from his body, seeking to make said nag move. When he finally descends after his thrilling ride, Harvey may be heard to exclaim, Oh, boy, that's some sport, and then we know within our- gelves that he has a real live story of peril to tell some one of the many fair admirers who cling to him. Outside of the girls, Harvey's only other fatal habit is smoking, prohibition came in time to prevent anything worse developing. His solace in any and all cares or troubles is his pipe, and when- ever and wherever seen, he i3 generally chewing on the stem of his favorite and exhaling the noxious weed.

Ninety-nine GEORGE HENRY HuDsON, JR., 2 A Chemical Engincering Wilmington, Delaware. Class Track II; Class Football Il; Cluss Baseball I1I; Engineer- ing Society; League of Notions Club; Footlights Club. Huckie George Henry, Jr., is the victim of a fatal ambition to become a civil engineer. He iz never so happim.' as when, with a huge transit wrapped about his neck and a thick, ponderous volume of notes held lovingly beneath his arm, he strikes off with that char- acteristic stride of his that all the eiforts of the Plattsburg officers couldn't alter. George's present work takes the form of checking on his imaginary railroad through Frazer Fia:ld,h but when he leaves these halls of learning, he expects to set off for the Wild West, there to pursue his ambition undisturbed by any worry over checks. A really exciting event occurred in George's young life last year. Having nothing to do during his summer vacation, George signed up for the Plattsburg camp. But upon returning home at the end of four weeks, Huck felt a strong yvearning to return to camp and so, after smoking a few dozen of Dad'z best cigars, he again put on his uni- form. And at the close of this second camp, George received a terrible surprise. He was offered a commission! Not kmowing what to do, he Te- tired to the solitude of his bunk, smoked two boxes of cigars and then, knowing of nothing else to do, he ac- cepted the commission. George was promptly sent to the University of Buffalo, there to instruct the inno- cent 8. A. T. C. boys in the rudiments of warfare. When he returned to college in January, Mr. Burleson found it necessary to run a special mail coach from Buffalo to Newark, for the sole purpose of carrying to our young hero the sweetly scented longings for his return. And this from one whom we had formerly thought of as a woman-hater! Verily the army has wrought mighty changes! But aside from his fatal ambition as an engineer and his equally fatal charm for the ladies, Huck iz a good scout. He is always ready to do zomething for a friend, and he has a stock of original humor which has done much to lighten the moments as well ag add to the worries of Sandy McGougan in the latter's classes, One hundred JOSEPH IRWIN JEFFERIS Agriculture Stanton, Delaware Agricultural Club; Second Grange Prize IHII; Third Grange Prize II. L Jeif?! Having some slight propeller trouble the other day I alighted upon a road just be- low me. When I climbed out of the machine I saw that I stood before a pretty white gate above which, in brilliant gold letters were the words, J. I. Jefferis, Stanton's Scientific Soil Specialist. The sign impressed me strangely and, turning away, ac- costed a native who was passing, Who is thizs Jefferis? Oh, Jeff, zaid he, why Jefl's a great boy. Lived here all his life. Why stranger, he went to Delaware Col- legre, graduated back in 1820, That's what gave him his start in this here soil stuff. So this is the JefMeriz that studied ag with the class of '20, eh? 1 queried. Yes, that's him all right, replied the man. Here he comes, now, he added, turning away. I looked about me. The only person in sight was a rather important looking individual, coming out of the gate. As this man turned toward me he called out, Why, hello there, whoever thought of seeing you here? And my amazed eves realized that Jeff stood be- fore me. As I climbed into my machine a few hours later, after having gone through the well-appointed labs of Stanton's moat promin- ent citizen, I mused, Some transformation, that. Why Jeff used hardly ever to be seen when he went to college. Who'd a ever thought that he would have become one of her famous sons and such a soil specialist and citizen of Stanton?

Sphinx, Mary Pickford. LR Ralph iz the noisiest sphinx in the class of 1920. Back in High School times at Wilmington he was noted for his likeness to the great watchman of the desert of Sa- hara: and so it has followed him to Delaware. Becaose of his dainty complexion and beautiful curly hair, Rnlph has alzo been likened to Mary Pickford. For any further comparisons see Venusz Colpitts. Ralph haz one big aim in college, and that is to study and then study some more. His favorite haunts are Wolf Hall and Mechanical Hall. At the latter he has been known to work for hours at one time on a problem which he might have gotten from his namesake Gene . Useless work, Ralpg. His preat specialty is chemistry; and during the past year he was eredited with the startling discovervhow to regulate a Bunsen Burner. He also made a record in Doc Penny's class by being the only one without a cut during the vear. To show that Ralph's studious efforts have mot been in vain we refer you to the Du Pont chemistry acholarship, which is held jointly by the two Kennedy boys. There's but ome phase of Ralph's college life which we should like to criticise. He seems to nurture a deep-seated prudpe against collepe activities. So far he has held aloof from most student meetings and was rarely seen on Frazer Field. We suggest that he stay over to some of the pames during his Senior year and by so doing set a good example to the Freshmen, B virtue of hiz four years of study, we wis Ralph success in his line of work and will remember him as one who is seen but seldom heard, One hundred-three ROBERT PAUL KITE, X E Chemical Enginecring Wilmington, Delaware.

Once you've seen him you'll never forget him.

There are two f's in the middle of it, too. B-ff-o. After he receives a letter he may be seen ambling aimlessly up to the campus, where he reclines on the greensward in an eestasy of day-dreams. After throwing a spasm or two in the shade, he shuffles toward the gym and, strange to relate, dons a track suit. He steps gingerly on the track, and under the eye of the coach starts on the half-mile. Then they say, Look at that stride, as Kitey ambles along with an apparent ten-foot step. It was this stride that won for him his place on the Varsity Relay Team and also his D for track, after two years of plugging. Contented to listen rather than talk, we find him holding his peace until the time comes for him to say something. Cool and reserved he says his little piece and resolves to back inte his natural appealing self. His bursts of enthusiasm are spontanecus and contagious and he goes in for everything.

The first one is the great number of pood looking girls who infest thiz particular place, By far the greatest reason for the prominence of this small town, however, iz its one male inhabitant, under the age o twenty-one- Winfield Wilson Lattomus, the lion of Townsend's younger set. In the fall of 1916 amidst the stirring strains of the Townsend band mingled with the cheers of the Townsend High School, and the zobz of the buxom country lasses, our hero swung nonchalantly aboard the train to start on the big adventure of his life. Onece at college, Wilson began in the right way by entering into everything from class fights to Student Council dances. His delightful little stutter caused a sensation among the pirls, but despite this fact we must confess that Wilson is not a regular with the ladies. He likes them all and they all like him and there it stops, In his Freshman year this Townsend strong man de- cided that football was a game worth knowing and he started to come out regularly for practice. Despite the fact that he had never played before, he gained knowledge enough of the game to play on the class team. In his sec- ond year he showed great improvement and early in that year he was elected assistant football manager. He held this position until the end of his Junior year when he was elected manager. Last year he landed a varsity berth and he has developed into a promizing tackle. In college work, Latty is Charlie Carswell's under- study in civil engineering and he entertains hopes of being as good as Charlie himself someday. He is far from being a grind, but he studies to pet away with it and so stands well in his classes. Wilson's determination and straightforwardness, have won him many admirers and among his friends he is known as a good fellow, always ready equally for a frolic or a fight and always ready to help the other fellow to the best of his ability. One hundred five WILLIAM FRANCIS LINDELL Electrical Engincering. Newark, Delaware, Engineering Society; League of Na- tions Club. e o 1L Pt Here we have another fellow who has accomplished much in his own quiet way. It takes quite a while to learn to know him unless you are a natural frequenter of Mechanieal Hall. Although seldom heard from we are quite used to seeing him at all the games and all the doings around the college. He comes and goes with the days. As a matter of fact he's like the brook, he goes on forever, pulling down his marks which place him near the head of our very short list of real students. Whenever there was a class fight we always found this chap right in the midst of it, but afterwards when we were telling each other in those famous old leagues just how we threw this one or that one, we never heard from this quiet classmate of ours. As a matter of fact his modesty is misunderstood for lack of interest by those who do not know him. His academic work occupies the chief place in his interests and he is attaining success along his E. E. course. He iz able to set up any kind of an electrical apparatus in existence. You may find him anytime at all in the electrical lab fussing around the motors and dynamos. Some day he'll be famous. With us he is a guite unassuming chap who takes a deep interest in college affairs but who prefers to watch and not to talk. Some day he'll break out and astound us with a long speech before the Engineering Society. Sue- cess iz bound to come to this classmate who is plugging along with a definite purpose clear- Iy in view., That sparkle in his quiet eyes shows uz that still water runs deep. How deep we don't know but with another year to po we'll watch and find out. One hundred siz N 3 HARRY WALTER LOOSE, K A Mechanicnl Engineering. Wilmington, Delaware. Corporal Co.

It is interesting to note that Bob is a distinet blonde type, and it i2 mainly on thiz account that he iz so popular at a certain institution of learning located about a quarter of a mile from the College. But we believe that it iz not alone the color of his hair that accounts for Bob's popularity, for he possesses a disposition which is excelled by none in the col- legre. And his disposition does not amount to mere words, for he is always willing to aid in every way possible, whenever there iz work to be done. This may read like an advertizsement, but it isn't for Bob iz the penuine article. So here'z your man, Ladies. One time Bob teok the part of a motherly-looking person with red hair in one of the Footlights Club productions at the Women's College, and a pro- feszoreze waz heard to ask why Mrs, Whosit was assisting that evening. We say that Bob is some little deceiver.

With the same speed and dash e shows on the dance floor, our hero made a mad dash for the nearest mail box hefore the thug eould gather his senses. Quickly Phil dropped his watch, chain, and silver basketball into the slot. Meantime the terrified thug fled, knowing that his attempted robbery had been foiled by Phil's quick wit.

Frank will no doubt be a gentleman farmer, because, even though he iz an ag and familiar with EVETY one of Doc. Palmer's cows, Gudgie is always neat and snappy in appearance. In his Freshman year, Frank went out for baseball, and he soon landed a varsity berth. His playing around second has been of such high-class that in hiz Junior year he was chosen to captain the varsity. When class basket- ball time comez around, Gudgie starts training promptly and in these games he haz diplayed with won- derful gkill the K. 0., the Rabbit, and other punches, guaranteed to keep 'em down. Despite his frail build Gudgie iz always there when the whistle ends the game., We seriously doubt if you'll be able to keep this youth down on the farm, but we szhall see, We're watching Frank carefully because he claims to be an idealist. What that is we don't know. Any- way, Frank has worked hard for our class and he is one of the best-liked fellows in the bunch. As he leaves we may wish him luck, but what's the use? He'll pet it anyway. One hundred ten JOHN FrANCIE MCWHORTER, JR.,, K A Chemical Engineering. Middletown, Delaware. Manager Tenniz IV; Glee Club: Mandolin Club; Sergeant Co.

Mac of course is the more important of the twe. Now Mac iz a charter member of the Paddlefoot Club. His feet are especially adapted for accompanying his sad, melodious strommings on the banjo. His favorite songs are: The Wild, Wild Women, and Oh! How I love Her. We wonder who this her can be? Mac has had so many accompanying him and also his spats to our jazz fests that we are all up in the air. Whenever Mac starts strumming on the banjo we prepare for the sight of a new one at the next hop or prom. His fame lies in hiz musical and social ability, As a class football player Mac has shown wonderful skill in surviving with his short, stocky person the attacks of the opponents. As a wrestler he can make a preat many of the hig fellows around college say Uncle. Anybody who can survive the terrors of Aunt Nellie's when Mike, Fitz and Lou were kings, as have Mac and Laddie, deserve great credit, and we give it to Mac unreservedly. A good friend and a good sport characterizes Mac and we know he won't feel insulted if we eall him our Little Giant.

Not many years ago, Delmar, Delaware, was the scene of the largest celebration that section of the country had ever known. There were parades, speech-making and general hilarity everywhere. The papers far and wide gave the event great publicity, and in a miraculously short time the town was overrun with visitors. Many slept in barns, glad of the opportunity to be near and to see what was the cause of so great a disturbance. No one seemed to find out the exact cause, however, until about a year later when it was discovered that on that memorable occasion one, Copper Nelson had first seen the light of day. In due time the boy waxed strong and after passing millions of those down hum exams, he decided that Delaware College was the only place left for him to conguer before he was prepared to turn the world upside down, As a Freshman Copper was true to type, having a noble coat of verdigris cultivated in his home town high school in hiz senior year there, but like a good freshie he soon persuaded the sophs to rub it all off. In fact Copper became acclimated to Newark ways in a remarkably short time. Bince coming to college, George has entered into activities in general with spirit and en- thuginesm. As manager of baseball team in his senior year, Copper expects to make the 1920 team the best ever. Incidentally, he iz going to show Dinty just what a good Senior Electrical Engineer should be.

Bob is really a good worker, however, despite hiz sleepiness. His interest in the Delaware Farmer has earned him the pozition of editor-in-chief of that paper. It means a lot of work for Bob next year, but he iz capable of that and we feel sure that he will succeed in making the paper the success that it ought to be, Bob has showed some skill, too, in class football and in class track, and in each of these sports, he has made points for 1920, Above all elze, Bob is likable Ibccame his interests and his ways are as big as his body. ! l I l.

Iiwalt'll RRY Try to stretch your imagination to the extent of picturing a sawed-off New Eng- lander with the build of an athlete on an underslung chassis, a face like unto the hills of Massachusetts, and a smile as open as Doc. Rhodes bar. Well the picture is complete, and it's Walt Ritz, the New England lad who has won renown with us as an all-round athlete, a social bear, and a musical genius. Athletics is Walt's hobby, for all sports are alike to him if they require nothing more than strength, speed, judg- ment, skill and nerve. In varsity and class Tootball, baseball and basketball, we have in Walt one of the few three-letter varsity men in our midst. Then, too, we have gotten so used to seeing this chap walking around the campus with his golf club and solitary ball, supposedly practicing golf, that when he is not there we miss him. Obie was heard to remark that he would make a splendid substitute for a scarecrow, and would serve to keep the crows from the prass seed when it is planted next spring. When strenuous sports fail, Walt sings for exercise. His whiskey-tenor accompanied by the doleful strumming of a mandolin or uke hasg been the bane of our college course. When we won't let him sing Walt objects vigorously. Just to show that he is versatile he has attained a great rep with the ladies as a master of intricate Jazz steps. Walt promises that next year lessons will claim a greater share of his time, and we hope they do, for with more study Walt would be better off. A pood fellow, with a quick temper and ready smile, backed up with two pood fists to fight his own or his class battles, Walt is in on everything.

One hundred fifteen MERVILLE CHARLES SHAW, 01 A Electrieal Engineering Wilmington, Delaware. Engineering Society; League of Na- tions Club. Merv. Merv is one of the many strange produects who have come to Delaware from the wilds of Wilmington. He first entered the college with the class of 1919, but finding the environment altogether dizstasteful to his sensitive nature, and the call of the working world strong upon him, he left his classmates to their fate and went in search of big money. Hearing of the character and strength of the class of '20, however, Merv returned to col- lege a vear later and joined that distinguished group. His life ambition is to become an electrical engineer. In his desire to reach this end he has nobly acquiesced in all the statements of Dinty Koeber's, even going so far as to claim acquaintance with Polly Phase. The fact that he really does not know the young lady was clearly shown however, when upon being rude- ly awakened from his dreams of home by a slight variation in Dinty's mono- tone, he muttered something about see- ing if Carrie knew her. Despite his ambition, though, Merv has bright prospects for suecess in his chosen field, and we foresee that he will one day be- come a true successor to Ampere. In- deed, for such a frank, generous nature as characterizes Merv, such a position is inevitable. One hundred sixteen DRAPER SMITH, 2 E Arts and Seience Wilmington, Delaware.

Drape possessez all of these gualities and to top off his good looks, he has the winning ways which have gained for him a position of the first water at W. C. D. When Drape left Wilmington for Plattsburg on the first lap of his journey to a commission, twenty-three beautiful admirers waved him a tear- ful farewell, and shed tears of regret at having the idol of their lives thus harshly taken from them. This tender farewell is authenticated by the woman-haters, Mackie, Carter, and Barnard. While stationed at Camp Grant in the service of his eountry, Drape added to the number of his fair admirers, and he now has one thousand and one feminine idolizers. Nurrnnlly, Drape is a well-behaved young man, perhaps due to the fact that his father is the pn'lln:e l:crmrnmamner He has a fondness for swimming and at this sport, he is equalled by few in the college pool. His best friend perhaps, is the old pipe which is always in action scothing Drape's ruffled nerves. In studies, he always pets away with good marks without being too devoted to his books. A genial personality, coupled with an active interest in all college activities, makes Drape what we would have hima true son of Delaware. Mo, honest he's not too tough. Just right you know for the gentleman's part or for the part of a college student. One hundred sevenfeen HaAiszsoN TAYLOR TERRELL, K A Chemical Engineering Elkton, Maryland.

The former are nature's own; the latter were developed in hiz native town of Elkton, Md., and so you ses both were inevitable and the damage was done before poor Hass realized it. But despite this fact, the two together do make some combination. The W. C. D. thinks that he is a dear and is simply sweet and we'll all have to admit that you've got to hand it to him he knocks em ecold. Still, despite Hasson's conquering way with the ladies none of them can resist him, he is a good all-round fellow and he is well-liked by his classmates. Hags ig studying chemical engineering, He don't know just why himself, however, and so of course we won't try to say for him. Just the same, though, he spends a lot of hiz time down in the labs of Wolf Hall triinz to emulate Doec. Penny. It has even been rumored that Hass hopes to develop the same precise motion of the little finger of his left hand as is made by Doc. Hasson's real ambition, however, iz to become a military man. During his first two years we did not realize this desire in the heart of our hero, but in the days of the 8. A. T. C,, it eame to light in its full foree and Hasson proved to be one of the best and most pular leaders among the student non-coms. f:-'i fact, those days earned for Hass his title of Terrible Terrell, and we rather imagine that for him at least, the days of the 8. A. T. C. will always be the good old days. Hasson is a good sport though, and is deservedly popular in his class. He is al- ways ready for sports or scraps and in the first two years, Eg was always on hand whenever anything of the latter nature oc- curred.

Canterbury, Norm. AR They named a town down-State after Canterbury; at least that's what he eclaims and we never heard of the other three people who live there denying it. When the fair blonde drifted into Delaware from the Wesley Collegiate Institute, where he had gained enough knowledge to satisfy Froggy that he could make a fair showing even in Molly's trig class, he sure was fresh from the rural districts. It is even said that he early exhibited hiz astuteness by purchasing in advance and at a VERY special rate, a seat in chapel. His reformation began-a few weeks later, however, with a chicken hunt. Canterbury returned from this affair a chastened and more sophisticated youth. Once started, his progress was rapid, however. His winning manners, together with his beautiful blonde hair, give to Canterbury a peculiar and irresistible charm for the women, and many a fair heart both on Depot Road and in the nearby environs of Wilmington, has been laid low by the ruthless youth. We say ruthless, because Canterbury, like a born woman-hater, has resisted the advances of all his fair admirers. All in all, however, Canterbury is a pretty decent sort of a fellow. For three years he has plugged along as a consistent winner of points for 1920 in every track meet. He also is a member of the scrub foothall team; in fact, he has showed a great deal of genuine interest in the athletic side of his college life. Canter- bury possesses a genial personality that has made him one of the most popular fellows in the elass.

From the dozy and balmy quiet of his native Egypt, he came at once to Philadelphiathe danger zone of America. There, after preping at Exeter, Jake entered the University of Pennsylvania. Being choicy and particular about where he spent his last two years of college life, however, Jake decided to finish up at Delaware. Accordingly, after having spent a short time in giving the Du Pont Company a few pointers on efficient work, Egypt joined the class of 1920, in the second semester of the Soph vear. Jake fitted in like a brick and his deep interest in the college has gained him a host of friends. Jake is taking mechanical engineering and is consequently an ardent disciple of Gimpty BSmith. In fact it is rumored that Jake hopes to become as gpood as zimpty himself some day. Jake iz one of the best-liked fellows in the class of 1920.

We can't blame you for that, though, Whitey, if we had the money and enough cigars we might do the same. The lad threatens to pull out with the class of 1920, however, never to return from his distant home in Delaware City. This likable and good-looking chap is studying ag and in the summer he farms with great diligence in his own little back vard. Whitey's quiet and staid-looking exterior is somewhat misleading for underneath he iz a man of many moods. At times he is perfectly con- tent to put in his days back of his favorite fire- box; again, his blood aroused, he slips up to Wil- mington and indulges in a mad riot of soda waters and moving pictures; or again, on a balmy afternoon, the spirit of wanderlust pervades him and, quite casual-like, he will dive neatly out of the window of Pussyfoot's lab.

In fact he has Ireland stamped on his face, his neckties, and last but not least his pipe. Spitz is a good nickname for this Son of Erin who iz cruelly addicted to the tobaceo habit. With a chew in his jaw, a pipe in one corner of his mouth, a pack of ciparettes in his coat pocket, and two or three cigars in another, we see Spitz day after day going around the campus towards Wolf Hall to dabble with chemistry and smoke in peace. Another feature of thiz creature is the lovely erop of whiskers which he can raise in three hours time. At inspections we have become used to hearing the following: 0'Neil, why don't you shave? I did, sir., When? Three hours ago, gir. 8Sgt., dismiss that man from further duty, he's wasting his time here. Spitz is also a crack checker and chess player. He iz a member of the varzity chess team and has been a leading factor in causing interest in chess to grow. He is generous and willing to do any faver for a friend. He was always with us but it required two years for us to discover him. However he is in our midst now, on a pretty solid footing, too, and if he keeps on going at his present clip he will pull through in June, 1920, with bells and his green tie, and clay pipe on. For graduation he wants tobaceo wrapped in green ribbon, One hundred twenty-three HagroLD CAULK GRIER, 3 N Arts and Science Milford, Delaware, Arts and Secience Club; Band; Or- chestra. Skipper. Harold the Skipper, is a great believer in the adage any old port in a storm, and oft-times he may be seen plowing through the blistering December sun to that haven, strangely church-like in appearance, Rhodes, where he may be heard uttering in a hoarse whizper, Coca Cola. You ask why the appelation skipper? It happened this way. Way back in the days of the great war, when the young debutantes of that time deemed it fashionable to do something for their ecountry, Harold aspired to be an Admiral. He had never geen the ses, but what odds? The youth had sailed toy boats on the ereek of his native village at Milford, yea, and had read blood-curdling tales of the days of the buccaneers. The gatekesper at the Annapolis health resort was finally persuaded to let him in. But alas, the war could not keep on forever, and so he was forced to come back and be a landsman at Newark again. Now the Skipper is wearing out his old gob's clothes at college. Skipper is a preat stepper, with his feet, of course. And speaking of feet, Skipper got hiz full share, and he takes particular pride in them. He is a noted personage, now that he has donned civies again, in Newark; noted for his choice of footwear and vests. Never what might be termed racy, they em- body a combination of emotional feeling and a desire to play chess. In fact, some day Harold claims that he will write a book entitled, The Erotic Motive in Footwear and Vests, which will contain a number of color plates in the appendix, with tables show- ing the estimated effect in ealories of rose-pink vests combined with apple-green spats and russzet shoes, or alice-blue and lavendar, or old gold and purple, or any of the thouszand and one other chromatic combinations in which he delights. But we all admit that the Skipper is all right and a darn good chap, in spite of the fact that he studies English eleven and Steam Engines, One hundred lwenty-four GLUE Y Sophomore Class History When the class of 1921 entered Delaware College, it was the largest class that had entered up to that time. And now, as we look back over the two years that have passed, we ean proudly point out that we are also the class with the largest number of victories to our eredit. Naturally we are good in scholastics, and very few are the ones who fell by the wayside. In our Freshman year we set up an enviable record for all follow- ing classes to meet. With grim joy we squelched the Sophs in our first fight. Not a man of 1921 was defeated and then eame the mighty foot- ball game. The Sophs were so sure they could trounce us; but once more we showed our superior ability and came through with one of the hizhest scores ever made in a class game. We defeated them 20 to 0. Of course the Sophs declared it was luck, that we had a horseshoe around our neeis, but we promptly proceeded to prove that it was skill, not brute strengih such as they depended upon, and went through the basketball season with- out a loss. But while all these class games were going on, it must be re- membered that we supplied a goodly number of brilliant varsity material, such as Alexander, McCaughan and Tonkin. Joe Wilson, in his first ap- pearance in track for 1921, broke the mile and two-mile records. So, on the whole, we set the highest standard of any Freshmen elass that had ever been at Delaware College, But it seems that the men of the class of 1921 were only finding their stride in their Freshman year, for as Sophomores, we simply accelerated our pace and came through clean as a dog's tooth. It was well for the Freshies that the S. A. T. C. put a stop to class troubles, or they would have been so eowed right from the first of their college course that we would not have been able to have any fun with them later on. But we did hold a few individual athletic contests in the gym, and in these we were always victorious. I do not think the wrestling bout between Aikens, 1921, vs. Cobb, 1922, will ever be forgotten. As soon as the 8. A. T. C. was over, things resumed their natural course. In fact, things seemed so natural to us that we went right through the basketball season, winning the class championghip for the second time. This sets up a new record for classes at Delaware College to meet. It is well for the Freshies that the football game did not come off. The results would have been sad for them, very sad.

We also livened them up with several free-for-alls until we thought they showed life enough to fight, and then we smothered them in the bag rush. By way of comment, it seems strange but all the classes that have contended against us so far, have pre- dicted their fate. The Sophs last year foretold the score of their defeat in football, while the Freshies this year, announced a Sophomore Circus. It was surely a circus for the Sophs, and Irish Sank made the rats perform maost beautifully. We have the Freshies so afraid of us that when they went to the the- atre this year they were supplied with a protection of twelve policemen. But some day, when they become mighty Sophomores, they may learn how to protect themselves. When we went to the theatre, as Freshmen, we brought home with us the remnants of a fallen Sophomore banner and the picture of the crestfallen faces of our enemies. The war has taken toll of our class, but our spirit has remained true. During the influenza epidemic we were most heartbroken to lose LEE RoacH. He was a true friend and loyal supporter of Delaware College. We look forward with joy to the return of our men from the war, and the future seems even brighter than the past for us, and we truly believe that it is the spirit of the class of 1921 which is combined with the loyalty which makes us fight for 0ld Delaware, first, last and all the time.

As the day wore away and darkness came on, these sprouts gathered and waited for the Sophs, who tried to find amusement for themselves at the Dorms, but failed. The sprouts grew to know each other better and were just beginning to organize when influenza sent them all home for a short vacation. On October 15 the sprouts were temporarily recalled and inducted into the mill of the S. A. T. C., where they were to be ground into dough- boys. They were then sent home again. On October 28 they returned to l!-camp.ll On December 13, the College was put back on its original basis. The whole organization of the 8. A. T. C. was disbanded. We were then regis- tered as Freshmen and obliged to act accordingly. After the mustering out had been completed and everything settled, we were surprised to learn that only 66 of the original 140 sprouts were staying to finish the year. Things went along smoothly until March 10, when the Sophs pasted posters all over town. The Freshmen tore them down and then the fight wasg on. Class fights continued until a final rush on Frazer Field on March 24, brought the campaign to a close. The class of '22 has furnished Delaware with a large number of ath- letes for baseball, basketball and football. Stewart, DeLuea and G. Carter were the varsity football men. G.

Vallandigham, 1873 Delaware College has a history of two active periods, the earlier of 25 vears, the later twice as long, with a slumber of rather more than a decade between. Chartered by the Delaware Legislature in 1833 as Newark Col- lege, the institution opened its doors to students in the spring of 1834, It closed them twenty-five years later, in the spring of 1859, for a sleep of eleven vears. In September, 1870, Delaware College reopened under new conditions, and the approaching end of the half century since the resuscita- tion, finds the college, after varying fortunes, at the most distinguished point in her career, with the reasonable hope of a far greater future, According to Lyman P. Powell's History of Eduecation in Delaware, Delaware College was founded as the result of agitation centered at New- ark Academy, an endowed classical school established in 1769, After some vears of such agitation the Trustees of the Academy obtained authority from the Delaware Legislature to conduct a lottery in order to raise $50,000 for the founding of a college at Newark. A legislative act in 1821 granted certain taxes upon coach and steamboat travellers in further aid of the acheme, and in 1835 another lottery act permitted the college to raize $100,- 000, half of which was to be in aid of schools and for other public purposes. During the long period of strugele that distressed Delaware College some excellent persons darkly hinted that prosperity could never be ex- pected of an institution founded by the aid of a lottery, a notion, if true, that would have implied the ruin of several great and highly respected col- leges and universities. We now have a higher public morality than our an- cestors of a century ago, for we prohibit lotteries in the United States, and legalize gambling only upon the stock exchanges, which enjoy a quasi- monopoly of the privilege, If you are a Chinese you are in danger of the virtue police should you play fan tan even in the privacy of your own house, and if you are a newsboy vou may be snatched by the same police as a brand from the burning should vou be caught shooting eraps in a re- tired eddy of the public traffic. Only the lawabiding citizen may safely have his quiet game of poker for a stake in his castle, which may be his home or the cardroom of his club. The college thus founded had an academic course and a collegiate course, as determined in September, 1833, by the Board of Trustees, organ- ized April 1 of the same year. The academic course was equivalent to that of Newark Academy, and next year the academy was absorbed by the col- lege and thus became its preparatory department, so that as the offspring of Newark Academy, Delaware College has some claim to date from 1769, Thers were but two professors at the opening of the eollege, although a third had been elected. There was as yet no president. Morning prayers One Hundred Thirty-nine TMEGBLUE 4 F-'! -f' e were at daylight until February 10, and after that at six o'clock, and every- body had to keep the Sabbath strictly, and read none but good books on any day of the week. The Rev. Samuel Bell, one of the profeszors, held frequent night praver meetings in the Oratory until the Board of Trustees interfered in behalf of the over-administered students, The Rev. Dr. Eliphalet Wheeler Gilbert became President in the fall of 1834, and ruled with moderation as to the students, with great indepen- dence ag to the Trustees. He resigned less than a year later because he dis- approved of the lottery. The Rev. Richard Sharp Mason succeeded him and lasted five vears, at the end of which time the college had 42 students, 19 still in the preparatory department. The first graduates, four in num- - THE OLD DELAWARE ber, received their diplomas in September, 1836. Dr. Gilbert became Presi- dent again in October, 1840, but resigned in 1847, when James P, Wilson succeeded him, to resign in January, 1850, and become President of the Presbyterian Union Theological Seminary, New York. William Augustus Norton, Profeszor of Mathematics, succeeded President Wilson, but retired before the end of the year to become Professor of Natural Philosophy and Civil Engineering in Brown University. The Rev. Matthew Meigs was act- ing President from August, 1850, to April, 1851, when the Rev, Walter 8. F. Graham took the office until his death early in 1854. He was succeeded by Professor Daniel Kirkwood, the astronomer, who resigned office in Oc- tober, 1856. The Rev. E. J. Newlin succeeded him and conducted the col- lege to its suspension on March 30, 1859, a disaster brought on by an ex- tremely unwise financial policy and unwise discipline, and hastened by the darkest event in the history of the institution, which had occurred exactly a year before. When the college opened its first year and term on May 8, 1834, with J One Hundred Forty formal inaugural exercizes, there was only one student in the collegiate de- partment, Alexander T. Gray, admitted as a Sophomore, and thus placed in the melancholy position of having no Freshmen to haze. There were 63 students in the academic department, of whom 42 were boarders. In those early days there were but two terms, winter and summer. The former be- gan the first Wednesday of November and ran to the third Wednesday in April, when a five weeks' vacation came. The summer term began at the close of the vacation and ran to the third Wedneaday in September, when commencement was held. This plan held until 1845, when a system ap- proximating that of today was adopted. Although for the period 1834-1859 the total enrollment in Delaware College was of less than 500 students, and there were only 125 graduates, the college was far from so insignificant as its small student body, inade- quate equipment and insufficient income might lead one to suppose. Like most American colleges of the period, it had accepted a good deal of monas- tic tradition. Its sole building, though dignified and tasteful in outward form, was bare and cold within, mainly ecarpetless, without decoration of any sort, without toilet eonveniences, without svstematic heating or light- ing. A wood cut on the cover of an early catalogue shows 0ld College with- out the cupola so recently disearded, or the subordinate porticos on the front of the wings. It was a simple cruciform structure without the pres- ent rear extension from the wings, and some feet shorter as to the central rear extension. Part of the monastic tradition was the requirement of prayers and recitation before breakfast. Tuition was $10 a term, and the expense for lodging and incidentals was less than $10 more in addition. Board at the commons of that early day was $1.25, later raised to $1.75 a week, and it was zaid that board might be had in families of the village as low as $2 a week. A eareful man could get through college on a little over $100 a year., In spite of poverty and severity Delaware College of nearly a century ago was in some respects not far behind its greater neighbors, and as already noted, members of its faculty easily found places elsewhere. An agent especially sent to Europe brought back some physical apparatus fully up to the times and of great interest for illustrative experiment, and even for investigation. Professor Daniel Kirkwood, who became one of the most distinguished American astronomers, and went from here in 1856 to take the chair of mathematics in the Univerzity of Indiana, carried on in 0Old College an experiment of great interest designed by means of a great pendulum hung in the well of the interior stairway to determine irregu- larities in the motion of the earth. The literary societies organized early in the history of the college exercised a marked influence upon the student body, and surviving copies of Cur Sunbeam, a student publieation, seem to prove that some at least of the undergraduates wrote the English language with rather unusual maturity of style. When first established Delaware College was mainly a classical school. One Hundred Forty-one The eurriculum, almost solely of required studies, prescribed Latin, Greek, mathematics, history, phyzics, mental and moral seience, and little else. There were comparatively few distractions, except the traditional mischief of American college youth, and of that there was much of the time more than enough. Oratory was a good deal practizsed, and there was no little intellectual activity in the student body. Class rivalry was lively and not always marked by good taste. The annual junior exhibition was a thing of importanee in the spring, and it was the duty and pleasure of the Sopho- mores to do what they could to make this oceasion undignified and ridicu- lous. So-called sham programmes of this entertainment were sometimes issued by the Sophomores, and it was in a scrimmage attendant upon the efforts of the Juniors to destroy the whole issue of these programmes on March 30, 1858, that John Edward Roach, a vouth of 18, from Princess Anne, Maryland, was stabbed to death by a fellow student whose identity THE OLD CAMPUS was never judicially established, though it is certain that the young man accused of the crime by the dying Roach but not indicted, was absolutely innocent. Another student, indicted and tried, escaped conviction, It was this shocking oceurrence that hastened the already inevitable closing of the college doors for a period of eleven years. That long decade of slumber was one of the most momentous periods of American history. A few months after the doors of the college closed John Brown made his raid upon Harper's Ferry. A little over a year later came the popular election that made Abraham Lincoln President and precipitated secession. Then came four years of civil war, the freedom of the slaves, the beginning of re- construction in the Southern States with the newly emancipated colored neople ruling in many states under the leadership of strangers from the North. None of all this pother availed to wake the academic sleeper. RNRY One Hundred Forty-two e UL IVEGLUE UER B S T e e At length in 1869 Delaware College was designated by the Delaware Legislature as the beneficiary under an act of Congress providing for the assignment to the states of public lands in areas proportioned to their re- spective representation in Congress, for the establishment of colleges that should teach agriculture, the mechanic arts and military tactics, not to the exclusion of English branches. Delaware received 90,000 acres of land in the wilds of Michigan, which yielded, when sold, for less than $1 an acre, an endowment for Delaware College of about $83,000. Thus was superim- pozged upon an old classical institution the system of the newer education. Justin Smith Morrill of Vermont, representative and later senator in Con- gress, fathered the law that made possible the resuscitation of Delaware College. He had intended that the colleges founded under this law should OLD DORMS be especially for the education of youths wishing to acquire an education in the practical arts and sciences, though he recognized that sound English training should go with this technical edueation. As Delaware College had buildings, grounds and apparatus to contribute to the new scheme, it was thought proper that she should continue to be a classical institution while taking on the newer and more practical education. The administration of the college was long much criticised because the agricultural courses failed to attract students, and for a time the other practical courses hardly reached the importance and popularity that were to be expected of such courses in an institution refounded under a law enacted with Mr. Morrill's intent. Within the past generation, however, Delaware College haz ap- proached nearer and nearer to Mr. Morrill's ideal, while not abandoning her classical courses. One Hundred Forty-three Colonel William Henry Purnell was the first President of Delaware College. He served from 1870 to 1885, The line of succession since has been: The Rev. Dr, J. H, Caldwell, Dr. Albert N, Raub, Dr. George Abram Harter and Dr. Samuel Chiles Mitehell, the present incumbent., These five presidents have served an average of 10 years each. The longest adminis- tration has been that of Dr. Harter, from 1896 to 1914 ; the shortest that of Dr. Caldwell, less than three years. The professor longest in service in the whole history of the college was Dr. Theodore R. Wolf, Professor of Chemistry, who served from 1871 to his death in 1909, Many things have happened in the courze of these five administrations at Delaware College. The period of struggle and utter poverty lasted for almost twenty years, and near the close of that period the student body sank to 17, and the institution seemed doomed. It rose to its first largest THE GROWING COLLEGE number in the early years of Dr. Raub's administration, reached a still higher number under Dr. Harter, and attained its highest again under the present administration. : Among the notable events in the history of Delaware College since 1870 are these: The experiment of co-education begun in 1872 and aban- doned in 1885 ; the establishment of the Agricultural Experiment Station in 1888; the almost econtinuously inereased appropriations from the Federal Government sinee 1888; the correspondingly increased aid from the State; the purchase of the State Farm for experimental- purposes in 1908, to- gether with the expansion of the Experiment Station's work and the or- ganization of the Agricultural Department to include t!le station, the teaching activities of the station force, and the more active agricultural propaganda throughout the State, the founding of the Women's College of Delaware at Newark, and in affiliation with Delaware College, the tempo- One Hundred Forty-four rary transformation of the college into a military school during part of the recent world war, and finally the expansion of Delaware College as the re- sult of a movement among the Alumni for the raising of an endowment for the furtherance of administrative work, and the consequent appearance of Mr, Pierre 5. du Pont with liberal aid, making possible expansion upon a comprehensive plan of building and development. Among other events since 1870 were the establishment of the military department upon a proper basis by the assignment of an army officer to command the cadets, the gift of Frazer Field by Eben B. Frazer, Mrs. Frazer and their son Stanley J. Frazer in memory of the son and brother, Joseph Heckert Frazer, an alum- nus of Delaware College, who died in Bolivia at the age of 29, when only eight years out of college, after an unusually suecessful career as civil en- gineer and railway builder, and the establishment in the present adminis- tration of the system of student government. For those who konew 0ld College at the resusecitation, when it was called The Oratory, and who know it now, nothing so strongly connotes the development of a half cen- tury as the transformation of that bare monastic interior, without either comfort or charm, into a delightful social center, with everything that ean minister to taste and comfort, a change that is primarily owed to H. Rodney Sharp. Those who recall the discomforts of life in 0Old College when it was recitation hall, dormitory, and refectory in one, look with something like amazement upon the delightful interior of the building as it now is, and upon the beauty, comfort and convenience of Harter Hall, the new dormi- tory. It would be a mistake, however, to judge Delaware College of the period immediately after resuscitation by present academic standards of comfort, convenience and beauty, for nothing better illustrates the essen- tial fact that a college lives not solely or mainly in its brick and mortar shell, or even in the charm of its natural surroundings than the testimony of many men to the influences that reigned at Delaware College in the period of its poverty, shabbiness and discomfort. Men are apt to idealize in age the days and scenes of their youth, and for that disposition allowance must be made, but one seldom meets a Delaware College alumnus of the seventies and eighties without finding him an enthusiastic eulogist of times past. As to the author of these lines he looks back with the utmost affec- tion and thankfulness to his undergraduate days from 1870 to 1872 to the delightful free eompanionship with those of equal age, to the patient and faithful work of the few professors, to the treasures of literature that he found in the library of the Delta Phi Society. If the Delaware College of that time seems to those who were undergraduates nearly half a century ago worthy of enthusiastie loyalty, what should the Delaware College of to- day reasonably expect of its present fortunate student body? NoreNewark Academy was chartered in 1769, two years after the founding of the Academy. - THE AUTHOR. One Hundred Forty-flve Miss CARRIE STUART The Pollyanna' of 0ld College, our friend, confidant, and advisor, Miss Stuart is our big sister. Unselfish, kind, sympathetic, happy, and undeniably frank, she has won our hearts. We need not go back too far to recall the aszistance she rendered us with that true spirit of comrade- ship in solving the thousand and one problems that face us in the social and athletic activities of the year. An ardent athletic enthusiast, Miss Stuart plays an important part as the trainer of Delaware athletesan essential contribution to the enviable records made by our teams. Without Miss Stuart the student life at Old College eould not flourish az it has done sinee her arrival at 0ld Delaware. With the best wishes for future success the Blue Hen Board, on behalf of the whole student body, congratulates Aunt Carrie for the wonderful things she has accomplished. One Hundred Forty-aix Miss CATHERINE MCGINLEY We shall always remember Kitty. Introduced to us by Miss Stuart we knew right away that we had another true friend and helper. Cheerful, oblizing and unselfish she was a direct representative of Miss Stuart's insight in bringing her to our campus. As a follower of all sports Kitty alzo became known as the Assistant Trainer. It is with true feeling that we say that next year we shall miss Kitty and her ever ready smile and willingness to do those little things which make life around Old College worth living.

I, In many respects dramatic activities stand out as unique in college life, especially in a college organized and situated as Delaware is. . Drama is the great social art. Students from both colleges can act in the same cast, Faculty members and students can co-operate in the produe- tion, and townspeople and visitors from a distance can come by hundreds to see and enjoy the performance. Indeed, without widespread interest and co-operation drama cannot really exist. Dramatic work is the great unspecialized college activity. Can a track team use a cripple, or a debating team a stutterer, or a mandolin club a man who can't play an instrument, or a college newspaper a man who can't write or get advertising? But in dramatics every man in college can be used, if he is willing to do his part. The most valuable man in this activity iz not the one with a previous reputation, but the one who is not afraid of work, Dramatie performances combine work and play, There is no more valuable training than that of acting before an intelligent audience, and no greater fun. Here the interpretation of literature and the control of voice and features and motions go hand in hand with the spirit of play. The amateur learns to be a public speaker or to walk like a man while he is enjoying the novelty of the applause and lights and costume and stage setting. Good dramatic work is the most effective and the most economical ad- vertisement a college can have. Is there any well-read person who does not know of Oberammergau, the little Alpine village where the Passion Play iz given? Yet how few people know where the great athletic events of Europe take place! Indeed, Oberammergau, with its peasants acting the tragedy of the Cruecifixion, is better known than most battlefields. Less than twenty years ago a few Irish amateurs began to act good plays in a One Hundred Fifty-one THE ELECTRA ZEVEGLUE U e The Value of Dramatics in College Life CONTINUED side street of Dublin. In a short time they were touring America and play- ing to packed houses in every city; and people in China and the South Seas heard of Irish drama before they were quite sure about the existence of Ireland. There iz no reasonable doubt that good plays presented at Delaware for five consecutive years would give this ecollege a natienal reputation a reputation among the people at large such as no other college activity could possibly afford. In fact, drama is pre-eminently the popular art. For the small boy, peeping somewhat anxiously under the tent flap ; for the elderly man, walk- ing confidently down the aisle to his reserved seat; for the little girl, whose child-life is a perpetual drama with dolls for actors; for the club woman, who belongs to the Drama League and likes Galsworthy, there is nothing more human, more vital, more educative, and withal more enjoyable, than the acted play. It was a man who knew the stage, and who had more than an average understanding of human nature, who wrote, The play's the thing.

Cannon One hundred fifty-five ZEIVEGLUE UER 158 Electra The Electra of Euripides, presented on the terrace at Wolf Hall, Friday evening, May 22, 1919, was without doubt the greatest dramatic success ever seen at Delaware College, a success of which the Footlights Club of Delaware College, and the Dramatic Club of the Women's College may well be proud. Over a thousand people attended and many more were turned away from lack of seating capaecity, which shows that an apprecia- tive audience can still be found for a Greek poetic drama. The production was a singularly beautiful and artistic interpretation of one of the great poetic dramas of a vanished civilization which can never lose its force be- cause, though the ages change and the fashions of outward institutions change with them, human nature does not change, and the master of its passions of two thousand years ago can sway men still. The English ver- sion given, that of Professor Gilbert Murray of Oxford, from whom per- mission to use the play was obtained, is admirable, lessening in no way the passions and characterizations of Euripides. The work of everyone who had a hand in producing the play cannot be too highly commended. Miss Emilie Mundy made a superb Electra, hold- ing the audience tense with her passionate declamations and portrayal of the emotions of the daughter of Agamemnon. Allen, as the messenger, gave a soul-stirring speech describing the killing of Aegisthus. Broughall, as Castor, gave a fitting climax to the play when he pronounced in solemn tones the fate of the characters. The other members of the cast deserve to be praised for the magnificent work which they did. Dr. Moore, the Gen- eral Director, may well be proud of his staff, and may look with infinite satisfaction on the result of his pains. This play marks the beginning of a new era in dramatics at Dela- ware and is only the forerunner of still greater things in the future.

The Faculty Club deserves great eredit for bring- ing to Newark such a collection of artists. The concert was thoroughly enjoyed by all and perhaps concerts of this nature will become more attrac- tive to the students and the friends of the college as the Faculty Club con- tinues to afford them the opportunity of hearing these musicians of wide reputation.

My voice will ever sing thy praise, And keep enshrined in faithful heart A love that lasts through all the days! Thy grass-clad slopes, elm-shaded green, Flecked by bright sunbeams in between, Will ever in my mind's-eye be, And linger through eternity! CHORUS Oh, Delaware! dear Delaware! My heart glows warm with love of thee! Thy werdant sod, thy stately elms, Are ever green in memory ! Oh, Delaware! dear Delaware! My mind reverts to days now past, When in Minerva's realm I dwelt And brain with problem grappled fast! When on the field, undaunted, bold, We fought beneath the Blue and Gold, Then danced the merry hours away While brown eyes sought out eyes of grey! CHORUS Oh, Delaware! dear Dslaware! Whate'er my lot in life may be In sunshine, rain, in peace, in strife, I'll hold thee close and dear to me! Thy sunbeams flood my very soul! Thy verdure decks life's golden bowl! And e'en thy fleecy clouds ride high! So Alma Mater, hear my erv! CHORUS any Ly One Hundred Siziy-five II:!'I'ILL HiF duns s 'i'LHJ.'VIt. L Commencement Plans and Program A 1!

FERGUSON A Distinguished Service Cross has been awarded to Second Lieu- tenant George Harvey Ferguson, our former classmate and athlete. The citation reada: Sacond Lieutenant George H. Ferguson, 6th Infantry. For ex- traordinary heroism in action near Romagne, France, October 14, 1918. After being painfully wounded in the leg early in the attack, Lieutenant Ferguson continued forward, leading his platoon through an unusually heavy artillery and machine gun fire. Later he left a shell hole in which he had taken refuge and administered first aid to aoldiers who had fallen mear him, until forced to abandon this work because of exhaustion. Home address, Mra, G. H. Ferguson, East Main Street, Newark, Del Fergie also made a name for himself in athletics on the other side, playing on all the teams from his outfit. We are proud of this Blue Hen Chick, and we hope to welcome him back to his former place in our student body. LY One Hundred Sixty-eight Mg. HAZ0 BARTON Delaware College does not boast of a President Emeritus at the present time, but it does hoast of a Janitor Emeritus in the person of YHazo Barton. Hazo is sole custedian of Purnell Hall, the home of the English Department, and is the confidant of both professors and Freshmen alike. Even when the latter git in solitary misery and try to write Englizh thames, the quietude unbroken save for the scrap- ing of pens, the silent moving of chessmen in an adjoining office Where the professors wile away the weary hours, the whiz of Hazo's brush gtirs up the dust so that all may sneeze to clear their clogged-up craniums. Better than snuff, Hazo says. Oeccasionally, especially when your thoughts are running smoothest, which iz a rare oecur- rence, Hazo will but in with a cheery It looks mighty like rain, Mr. So-and-so. You answer a pleasant Yes, Mr. Barton, and bite viciously on the end of your pen. Hazo and his forty-year-old waste basket make their daily journey to the middle of the campus precisely at 2,58 p. m. every week-day, and if you have never seen Hazo you may get a glimpse of him at that time. He has endeared himself in the heartz of everyone at Delaware, and even Sophomores are amazed at his tales of forty-nine. Without Hazo Delaware College couldn't exist. G One Hundred Sevenly I-IOEIEH Obie is one of the standard fixtures around Old College, and without him the building would lose mueh of its charm. In fact he is so important that one famous writer put him in the category of little giants. But Obie strenucusly objects to this. No, sah! he was heard to exclaim, Ah ain't no little giant, A'se just plain Obie! Obie is always on deck when he is wanted, and sometimes when he is not wanted, too, especially at chapel times, for along with his other duties Obie iz chief gatekeeper to keep those tardy ones from entering chapel. Obie iz also chief keeper of the punch bowl, and he relates many curious tales of when in charge of this famous resort for the thirsty. One time the patronesses of the Prom were delighted with the piquancy of the flavor. Obie laughs now, for he knows the reason,prohibition was not in wogue then. But old Obie iz a good old scout, and Old College could not prosper long without his tender care. In fact he's just one of de boys. One Hundred Seventy-fwo plY Social Life of the College In the soeial life of Delaware College are to be found more pleasant memories, more recollections of really delightful moments than in any other one phase of the college life. In the social life, too, are embodied many of the oldest and of the most sacred traditions of the college. The Junior Prom, the Farewell Hop, and the Annual Dances of the Fraternities are af- fairs which at each recurrence surpass previous efforts, yet lose none of their original significance and spirit. During the past year the social life at the college took on a new aspect. Beginning at Thanksgiving time the student body found its soul, so nearly extinguished by the rigors of the 5. A. T. C., and manifested its awakening in an informal dance. That little dance, given by the students, was the be- ginning. Following the demobilization of the 5. A. T. C., the social life of the college grew until it seems that the events of the past year have ex- ceeded the similar events of any previous season. The Junior Prom of the class of 1920 was indeed an affair worthy of remembrance. The decorations in the Armory were beautiful, and at the same time they were quite distinctive, reflecting the spirit of the class of 1920, for the Blue and Gold of Delaware was subordinated to the class eol- ors, Crimson and White. These colors, arranged in an attractive way over the ceiling, with lights of blue and gold peeping out from the interstices, emphasized the fact that the prom was an affair of the class of 1920 of Del- aware College. Music, refreshments, programs and all those elements that add so much to the success of any dance, were arranged with remarkable harmony at the Prom, so that it is no vain boast to say that this dance set a new mark for the arrangers of future Proms to copy after diligently. During the past yvear the social life of the college was featured by two notable additions to the usual program. This year the Faculty inangurated a system of parties given by them in honor of each class in the college. These affairs, held as joint entertainments for the students of Delaware One Hundred Seventy-four DANCE HIGMA PHI EPSILON TUEGLUE Social Life of the College CON TINUED College and the students of the Women's College, proved both attractive and enjoyable. They served to create a much eloger bond between the stu- dents and the Faculty members, and they helped to bring the two colleges into a better understanding of one another. The general success of the af- fairs and the universal satisfaction expressed concerning them was such that their continuance as annual functions is inevitable, A second addition to the social life of the eollege was the annual dance given by the Omega Alpha Fraternity., Prior to this dance the Fraternity had directed all its efforts of a social nature to the planning of informal danees which had always been exceptionally well executed, but they had never held a formal annual danece. The affair lived up to the traditions of the Fraternity and of the college in every respect. It proved to be one of the most delightful dances ever given at the college, and in future years an an- nual dance of Omega Alpha may well be looked forward to as one of the bright lights in the social life of the college. The annual dances of the Sigma Nu, Sipma Phi Epsilon, and Kappa Alpha Fraternities added distinetive features to the social calendar. These dances have been held regularly year after year and the apirit and skill in the arrangements and the decorations of all three dances merit the highest praizse, Besides the annual dances, the four fraternities gave many in- formal dances at the Century Club, 0ld College, and the new Armory. House parties and lawn parties also called forth many visitors to our little college town during May and June. Another attraction in the social life of the college was the entertaining of the visiting athletic teams by Dr. and Mrs. 8. C. Mitchell at The Knoll. After the games the visiting team and members of the college team were One Hundred Seventy-six HONYVO VHIITY VOUWO L TMEGLUE U e Social Life of the College CONTINUED entertained at informal dances with students of the Women's College for partners. This custom was continued throughout the entire baseball sea- son and served as a means of showing our regard and appreciation for the members of the visiting team. At an informal reception given in honor of our winning basketball team, Dr. and Mrs. Mitchell proved wonderful hosts. With students from the Women's College present, an enjoyable evening was spent in dancing and other forms of amusement. The Student Council dances proved to be very popular and all were great successes due to the management of Miss Carrie Stuart. The mu- sieals, entertainments, and parties given at various times also served as a means for social gatherings. The dances given by the Women's College also afforded some of our number the opportunity of enjoying those delightful affairs. Decorations, music and arrangements rivaled those of the dances at Delaware College. The zocial season for Delaware College closed with the Farewell Hop given by the class of 1920 to the graduating eclass of 1919. This dance was a great success in every respect and was enjoyed by all. In this short space we cannot do justice to the good times we have had at 0Old Delaware. A general resume of the social life of Delaware College during the year iz a difficult thing to write, A hard task indeed was imposed upon the poor geribe when he was directed to review the social activities of the year. He can only say that every detail of the season blended into one harmonious and truly delightful whole; then he must put down his all too inadequate guill for the more able hands of the future reviewers to use in better style as they describe the justly greater glories of seasons yet to come, One Hundred Sevenly-eight L ar T TVEGTUE VER B55 DANCES EIGHTH ANNUAL DANCE Delta Kappa Chapter Sigma Nu Fraternity January 10, 1919, Armoryg Mrs. C.

While at college Coach Shipley held an enviable record in athletics. For six vears he played on both the football and basketball teams. In 1912 he was picked as all-Maryland quarter-back, and in the fol- lowing year as all-Maryland full-back. In basketball he also played four years in collegiate circles. In 1916 he was graduated from a course for athletic coaches at the Uni- versity of Illinois, and the following year he became Athletic Director and Coach at Perkiomen School. He left this posi- tion to assume similar duties at Marshall College. He then entered the service and won his commission in infantry, Upen discharge from the military service he accepted the position of Physical Director and Coach at Delaware Col- lege. We were very fortunate in securing such a capable coach. Under his supervision the basketball and baseball teams developed into the best teams that have represented Delaware for many vears. His personality, his ready smile, and his thoroughness and general all-around ability have made him a favorite, We cannot praise him too highly and it is with eager anticipation that we look forward to next year's athletic calendar arranged by our coach and our friend. Twe Hundred Seves 1918 FOOTBALL TEAM Football Resume of 1918 Another football season has passed and another team's record will go down in the annals of Delaware's athletie history. Whether or not that team was a success is merely a matter of personal opin- ion. One thing is certain, however; the team was representative af all that Delaware stands for, and it showed the same wonderful fighting spirit and determination that has always characterized our football teams. This vear's team was by no means the best that has ever represented us, but it had many handicaps to over- come, and in overcoming them and in playing out a schedule it put forth the effarts which made us proud of our team. The team was formed under the regime of the 3. A, T. C. The fact that we had a team at all was due to the interest and enthusi- asm manifested by Lientenant Milton Aronowitz. Until his per- gonality began working upon the men in Camp Delaware the idea of having a team had been abandoned. Under his influence Frazer Field soon became filled with candidates for the football team to represent Delaware College., Only the men on the squad and those who were here during the 8. A. T. C. know what valu- able help he rendered Delaware by putting out a football team. He faced a very difficult problem. Of the 1917 varsity, Cap- Two Hundred Eight g e TMEGLUE U s T Football Resumd of 1918 I:Cuh!:'nupai J CAPT. WM. STEWART CAPT. HARRY LOODSE tain Ernie Wilson was a lieutenant with the A. E. F. Captain- elect Rill Stewart was serving in the same capacity as Ernie. Secutch Lauritsen, Bess Carter, and Al Mackie, all veteran linemen, were commissioned officers in the service. Mike Plam, the varsity half-back, was with the A. E. F., and Heine Mars- ton, the other half-back, was also a lieutenant in the army. Man- ager Bench Stayton and Assistant Manager Jay Truss, were lieutenants with the A. E. F. Other members of the 1917 squad who were in the service outside of the 8. A. T. C. were Hal Young, Frank Tyson, Harry Jones, Bim Aker, and Fred Lord. With all these varsity players unavailable Lieut. Aronowitz went to work and rounded a formidable team in a very short time. Harry Loose was selected to captain the team in the absence of Bill Stewart. Besides Harry, George Tonkin and Sank MeCaughan were the only other varsity men in the 5. A. T. C. With all these varsity players unavailable, Lieut. Aronowitz went weeks the schedule was started. The season opened on Frazer Field with P. M. C., our old rivals. It was a good game and although outweighed the team fought the cadets to a scoreless tie. The cadets had the edge on the Delaware team in that they had been practicing longer and were in better condition. Two Hundred Nine VEELUE VEN BEE e Football Resume of 1918 CONTINUED Then in the next game Delaware lined up against the giant team from the battleship Minnesota. After a fierce struggle in the first quarter, Loose broke through the visitors' defense for a long run for a touchdown. Delaware could not hold this advan- tage, On trick formations the visitors carried the ball over our goal line for a touchdown. They failed to kick the goal and the game ended 6 to 6. The following week the whole battalion took the trip to Swarthmore to watch our team go down to a 29 to 0 defeat. Swarthmore had the better team and won, but the Blue and Gold fought from start to finish in a way which was remarkable. Just how Ursinus ever beat us is a problem still unsolved. Yet they defeated us 8 to 0 on a touchdown and a safety. This game ended the season which eannot be termed a failure in that from a squad of twenty-five men only four will be lost by graduation. The training and experience which the others receive will come into prominence when we look forward with happy an- ticipation to next year's varsity with our long list of in the ser- vice men back to their old positions.

With the signing of the armistice and the dissolution of the 5. A. T, C,, the college again regained its feet az a college proper. Under the supervision of the Athletic Couneil, Burton Shipley was chosen as athletie director, and he immediately started in to build up a team which developed into the best team Delaware has ever sent out to represent her on the wooden court. During the later days of the 8, A, T. C. some of the men had been working out in the gym, and when Coach Shipley took hold of the sguad he found several promising candidates in Ritz, Lord, e G L MeCaughan, G. Carter, Pierson, Wills, Plam, and Marvel. . Ritz and Lord were the only two varsity men on the squad at this time. Lieutenants H. Marston, B. Carter, W. E. Barnard, and Cadet H. B. Alexander, all vargity men of the preceding year, received their discharges from the military service and soon reported for the workouts., With but four days before the first game, Coach Shipley took the squad and formed a good fast combination despite the lack of time for conditioning and teach- ing the players the finer points of the game. The first game was with the five from Ursinus College. After the final whistle blew, ending a thrilling game, our team was on the long end of a 29 to 27 score. The team lined up with G. Carter and Alexander, forwards: McCaughan, center; Marston and B. Carter, guards. This team took the floor with but four days' practice and turned in a win over a team which has always been dan- gerous. Although not a startling beginning the flashes of fast team work displayved by the blue- jerseyed warriors gave promise of a good season. The second game of the schedule was played at Chester with our old rivals, P. M. C. The Blue and Gold completely outclassed the soldiers and took a one-sided contest by the score of 43 to 13. The entire string of varsity squad players was used and still the score mounted higher and higher. Due to the fact that no college team was R AnTEn YL Two Hundred Seventeen 1 GLUE UER 1919 - e scheduled for the next week, Coach Shipley ar- ranged a gpame with the 403d Aero Sguadron from Aberdeen, Maryland.

MCCAUGHAM tul:n flg:h COACH SHIPLEY The first defeat of the season came with the Lehigh game at Bethlehem. The team showed fine form and lost by only two points, the final zcore read- ing 26 to 24. This game was the only game in which the Blue and Gold raised any question as to the decisions of the referee. With a big lead at the end of the first half, Delaware was forced to watch the opposing team cut down the lead, not by superior play, but by the rulings of the referee. Time and time again the team play was broken up by the calling of fouls, whereas the opponents ran wild in their playing and got away with any- thing. Coach Shipley and the whole team was disappointed that another game could not be arranged under better circumstances, The team got back into ils winning streak by lacing the Muhlenberg quintet 33 to 16 in one of the fastest games played on the home floor. Muh- lenberg had expected an easy win, as victories over Lafayette, Lehigh and other colleges had been credited to their speedy five. Our five not only defeated them by doubling the score but also gave a wonderful exhibition of team work and passing. Haverford was the next attraction on the home court and our veteran team overwhelmed them with a 48 to 20 score. The game was one- gided from start to finish and points were scored almost at will. The University of Pennsylvania, intercolle- giate champions, were our next opponents. With a crowd of three hundred rooters the team jour- neved to the Penn floor and put up a wonderful exhibition of basketball. We lost the game, 30 to LI H. B. ALEXANDER Two Hundred Eighteen TVEELUE YR B9 19, but the seore does not do justice to the close playing. At the end of the first half the Blue and Gold was leading, 13 to 12, The large floor with the out-of-bounds lines on four sides greatly handicapped the Delaware five, which has been used to a closed court. Even under this handicap the Delaware team gave Penn the closest battle of the year on their home court. No team was successful in beating Penn on their own floor, and the mere fact that we gave them the best battle of the season gives promise that next year we shall return a winner. After the hard battle with Penn the team had a day of rest and then appeared on the home floor for the game with the fast-going Bucknell University, which proved to be the fastest and closest home game of the season. We trimmed the vigitors 35 to 32 after forty minutes of deter- mined scrimmage mainly through the shooting of G. Carter, who gathered 22 out of 24 foul shots and also five double-deckers. At no time was the re?iultkuti the game evident as both teams were evenly matched in weight and skill. In the next game things proved easier when the team met St. John's of Annapolis, Md. The cadets coming north with a great rep were easily defeated, 51 to 19. Delaware ran wild and smothered the visitors under an avalanche of field goals, MeCaughan, Barnard and Alexander scoring at will from the long passes of Lord and B. Carter. We met with bad luck on our trip to Swarthmore and were defeated 26 to 22 in a close game. The officiating in this game was beyond question, but onee again the Blue and Gold was handicapped by the floor which was very small and unsatisfactory for Coach Shipley's style of play. Dickinzon journeved to Newark for the last game of the home zeazson. Needless to say Dela- ware won by the large seore of 40 to 19 after using all her first and second string men. This last vietory brought to an end a most suceessful season. A hastily arranged schedule of ten games was attacked with vigor with the result that seven victories and three defeats were marked on the sporting ledger. The three defeats were all administered on foreign floors by the University of Pennsylvania, Lehigh Uni- W. E, BARMARD versity, and Swarthmore, All the home games CHLE G.

Marston, B. F. Carter, H, B, Alexander, H. McCaughan, Q. Carter, W. E. Barnard, F. Lord, and J. Pierson. Captain Heine Marston will be the only man lost to the squad through graduation. Heine will be greatly missed as the great defense put up by him and his running mate, Bess Carter, always kept the op- ponents' score down. His loss will be keenly felt as he was always a fast, aggressive player, reliable at all times. Sank MeCaughan will have two more years at Delaware, and if he gshows up better than he did this year the gym will have to be made larger. Cool and reliable Sank formed the pivot around which the team work re- volved. A good shot and a clever floor man, he always was in the game, At forwards Howard Alexander and Gray Carter formed a fast combination. Alex, a veteran of last yvear, a fast dribbler and a sure shot, played a wonderful game all season, Gray Carter, his running mate, the only Freshman on the team, should develop into one of the speed- iest forwards in collegiate ranks. As a foul shooter he filled in a place which has been our weak spot for past years. At the other guard position Big Bess Car- ter worked to perfection with Heine. Steady and reliable Bess did much towards keeping the opponents away from the home basket. Hnsk Lord, Dick Barnard, and Johnnie Pierson were three dependable players. Husk e LY Two Hundred Twealy WA HOTMHLNT could play forward or guard equally well and was of great value to the team. Dick was a sure shot and his two pointers and fast team work aided materially in several victories. Johnnie, the smallest man on the team, was a fast and aggressive player who would fit in anywhere with marked success. With a team of veterans back for next season and with the new mate- rial from the Freshman class, Coach Shipley should develop another won- derful team. At a meeting of the varsity team Bess' Carter was elected captain for next vear. Although pleased with the past season we are all looking forward to next year when with a veteran team we start through a long, hard schedule to emerge victorious in all the games, even though Pennsylvania, Navy, and other big university teams appear on the schedule.

MCCARDE.L CAPT. 1918 CAPT, 1818 That the baseball season of 1919 was a success may be seen by glane- ing at the record made by the nine. Eight victories, one tie, and two de- feats stand forth as a record which has not been equaled for several vears. At the first call for spring practice Coach Shipley met about seventy candidates in the gym and until the weather permitted, daily practice on the field was discontinued, After gradual elimination Coach Shipley cut the varsity squad down to eighteen men. By careful work the pitching staff was developed. Work, Rothrock and Carll were the three varsity pitchers who ecarried the team through such a season, aided materially by the fine work of Gz .Carter and W. Ritz behind the bat. The first two games called for a southern trip and we journeved to College Park, Maryland, and Washington, D. C., to engage Maryland State College and Georgetown University respectively. Bad weather spoiled both games, which we lost. Georgetown defeated us 10 to 0 in a poorly-played game featured by bad weather and wet grounds. Maryland State also de- feated us 6 to 1 in a game played in showers. These two games were the only games we lost during the whole season, and had we met either of these teams later in the season a victory or even two might be eredited to our team. Delaware opened the home season by defeating the strong St. John's team, our old rival, by the score of 9 to 3. St. John's had defeated many strong southern teams and had hoped to repeat her defeat of last vear's team, but Jack Work got revenge by holding them to eight scattered hits; while the Delaware team, led by Donoho and B. Carter, with three hits apiece, pounded the St. John's twirler to all corners of Frazer Field. Haverford next claimed our attention at Haverford. With a strong wind blowing across the field, Rothrock, for Delaware, and Buzby, for Haverford, engaged in a pitchers' duel for ten innings. Delaware took the Two Hundred T1:.'r?.ll.l'1ap-ji1::: 81681 IVERLUE M lead three times only to have Havorford tie it up. In the tenth inning Bess Carter hit a sharp single over second. He was then advanced to third by a long single from the bat of G. Carter, and when Skeet Wilson, batting for Pierson, lifted up a short sacrifice fly, Bess slid over the plate with the winning run, The Blue and Gold ball tossers continued their winning streak by an- nexing a victory from North Carolina State by the cloze score of 8 to 2. Joe Rothrock went well for Delaware, holding the visitors to six scattered hits, and was never in danger until the seventh, when North Carolina put over two runs. In our half of the seventh Dantz walked, stole second and scored on an error. Captain MeCardell singled and Don Horsey, run- ning for him, stole second. At this point Coach Shipley put in Madden to pinch hit for Mitchell, and George drove in Don with a smashing double. Walt Ritz then batted for Pierson and won the game by driving out a double, sending over the winning run. Burres, the N. . pitcher, held the home team to three hits but these came in a bunch and were enough to win. Ursinus next claimed our attention and we proceeded to hand them an 8 to 2 setback on Frazer Field. Jack Work and Lefty Carll had the Ursi- nus batters completely at their mercy. For Delaware, Pierson, Madden, and Ritz led at the bat with two hits apiece. The hard-hitting Villanova team stopped in our village long enocugh to allow Coach Shipley's aggressive team to make it five straight victories by the score of 9 to 4 in a fracas complete with brilliant fielding and stick work. Joe Rothrock, of Delaware, and Murray, representing Villanova, both southpaws, engaged in a pitcher's duel with Joe having the better of the argument. The hitting of Don Horsey, who poled out four solid hits, and of Gray Carter, who poked three safe drives, one a triple, was di- rectly reapongible for Delaware's large score. Don also showed his speed in the field and on the bases, and Gray caught Rothrock in fine style. For Villanova, MeAndrews and Murray starred at bat and in the field. A trip to New York gave us a weleomed change, and we jonrneyed to the metropolis and from there across to Hoboken, where we crossed bats with the Stevens Tech nine in an abbreviated contest of six innings which ended in a tie, 1 to 1, after a downpour of rain. The team played fine ball and no doubt would have won had the rain held off. Rothrock pitched a fine game and was supported in fine style. B. Carter and G. Car- ter led at bat for Delaware, the former with a triple and a single and the latter with a double. MeCardell and Horsey played a wonderful fielding game despite the fact that the field was heavy. Discontented that a week had rolled by without a vietory being eredited to the Chicks, we packed up one fine day and took a short trip to Frank- lin Field, where we defeated the University of Pennaylvania by the score of 8 to 3. Rothrock went well until the eighth inning when he walked five straight men, forcing in two runs. Coach Shipley then sent Lefty Carll to the rescue and the little southpaw put himself in the hall of fame by re- tiring the side without further scoring and by holding them safe in the Two Hundred Twenty-seven HOLLOYV Hd TIVHESYVH - e ; ..-ull.ll.-lll s T L ninth. Horsey and Pjerson each secured two hits and played a defensive game worthy of mention. Phil Marvel furnished the main offensive of the day. In the first inning, with a man on base, Phil knocked a long home run which completely routed the Penn team. Madden furnished the fielding feature by a difficult catch in center field. G. Carter held up the gitchers in great style and not a man stole a base on his dependable whip. he score: U. of P. DELAWARE B H. 0. A E R. H. D. A, E. Bohan, 2b .....-.

We won both games, the former by the score of 3 to 2, and the latter by the score of 5 to 3. V. P. 1. sent up the best team that had faced Delaware during the entire gseason, but by using inside baseball coach snatched a vietory from appar- ent defeat. On account of his good showing against Penn, Lefty Carll Two Hundred T'wenly-nins ALUE took up the mound work for Delaware, and with the exeeption of the seventh inning held the southern boys in the hollow of his hand. Delaware was the first to score on a cleverly executed squeeze play in the fifth. In the seventh V. P. I. put over two runs by finding Carll's delivery for two hits and the squeeze., Rothrock relieved Carll in the eighth and held the visitors safe. In the eighth inning Delaware took the game on several hits and two beautiful squeeze plays, the first coming with B. Carter on third and . Carter at the bat, and the second with MeCardeu on third and Pier- son at the bat. This game was by far the fastest game ever played on Fra- zer Field. Fast work by Horsey, G. Carter, and Marvel around the field cut off several hostile tallies. Delaware had little trouble annexing the second game even though Jack Work had a second string team behind him. He held F. and M. safe throughout and was never in danger. This game ended a season for which Coach Shipley deserves great credit. Under his skillful hands the Freshmen battery candidates played like veterans. He instilled into the players that aggressiveness which made them a hard team to defeat. And the scribe takes the liberty to con- gratulate Coach Shipley and every member of the team for the wonderful record it made. Two Hundred Thirly-lwo CoacH J. M. Le CATO John Marvin Le Cato took over the task of coaching the track team for 1919, His value iz only too well known by the results attained. Coach Le Cato is a graduate of Balti- more City College and of the University of Michfgan- At both of these schools coach was noted for his athletic ability in track events. His wonderful collection of medals testify to the fact that in all branches of track he proved a consis- tent winner. From 1914 to 1918 he was track coach at Mar- shall College, Virginia. Upon coming to Delaware as a pro- fessor, the love of the track game caused him to offer his ser- vices to Coach Shipley. Coach Shipley immediately placed him in charge of the track team, and Mr. Le Cato by his un- abating insistence upon results has gained the confidence and respect of the whole college not only as a coach but also as a professor.

This successful season is due in a large part to the splendid coaching ability of John M. Le Cato. Coach Le Cato took a green squad and whipped it into such shape that a very ereditable season was gone through and bright prospects foretold for next year. The season was started indoors in preparation for the Southern A. A. U. Meet in Baltimore. This was an entirely new venture on the part of a Delaware team. When the team went to Baltimore, all the other teams placed in its class had dropped out. Johns Hopkins, Maryland State Col- lege, and St. John's College all withdrew and Delaware was left stranded. As a result the team entered the open class and was defeated. The Penn Relays called for the first outdoor work., George Hearne of the 1918 varsity having sprained his ankle during the winter, was unable to get into condition for the trials for the relay team. Time trials of vari- ous sorts were held with the result that the following men won places on the team: Craig Capt., Smith, Kite and Bunten. This combination clipped a few seconds from the record made by the 1918 team but was heazten out by Colgate in the big race. In the first dual meet Delaware had no trouble defeating Haverford. Haverford proved to be a one-man team featuring Hisey, a very versatile voung athlete who did most of their scoring. Delaware won by a large margin. In this meet Paul Arbuckle broke the college record in the high jump, and in doing so won his letter. Two Hundred Thirty-six g P The next meet was at Swarthmore and it proved a disastrous one for us., Without the services of Joe Wilson in the distances and with the track a sea of mud, Delaware went down to the only defeat it sustained during the season. The Middle States Meet during the same week was also run under aquatic conditions. Delaware placed fifth due to the work of Loose and Wilson. At this meet Harry Loose threw the javelin for the first time and won a second place with a throw of 143'4 , At Muhlenberg the meet was very close due to the unfavorable weather conditions. Rain poured down during the whole meet and the eli- max for the Delaware team came in the 220-yard dash. Craig was leading and looked a sure winner when he struck a hole in the track, covered with water, and fell a few vards from the finish, thus losing first place. The final result was a tie, and had not bad luek and bad weather interfered Delaware would have won another meet. In the last dual meet of the season Delaware defeated Franklin and Marshall with ease. In fact the meet proved to be merely a piling up of points, and when the final score was listed we had more than doubled the BCOTE. Perhaps the greatest surprise of the year was the sprinting of Smith, and the broad jumping of Harper. Both of these men were Freshmen whom Coach Le Cato developed into consistent point winners. Three rec- ords were broken during the vear. Wilson broke his two-mile record. Loose broke his discus record and set a new mark in the javelin throw. Arbuckle broke the high jump record.

Why fellows, in interclass athletics in our Freshman year we were in a class by ourselves. As a matter of fact we had no competition which eould stop our onslaughts. Football! What's this clipping say? Freshmen Held By Sopho- mores to a Scoreless Tie. Well, fellows, a Soph cub reporter wrote that. As a matter of faet the Sophs had the corner on all the newspapers. Yes, we were held. Say that real fast and in two or three tries you'll speak the truth. We sure were and we sure raised it. Now for the story! The day was an ideal day for a foothall game. It was just three- thirty when Lee Roach, our class foothall captain, put in his appearance at the head of our motley erew of gridiron warriors. With Bill McCork- indale on one side and little Len Daley on the other, Gertie looked like Herculez personified. Behind these three came Walt Ritz, Johnnie Bernardo, Al Dougherty, and Big Dick Holton talking over and mem- orizing the three or four plays drilled into them in the hour's practice held the day before. Pete Chambers and Sam Lambert were busy telling each other what their side of the line was going to do to the Sophs. They were planning to double-team the opposing tackle when the whistle call- ing for speed cut them short. Phil Marvel, Brewer, Williams, and the rest of the team were going through shadow boxing by the gym. Ger- tie and the three coaches called the team ? together and advice and tears began to flow freely as the orators opened up with their soul-stirring and ear-splitting speeches, The eleven men were chosen and were ar- ranged in order and told to stay there lest they get lost in the confusion. Two or three plays were attempted and as carriers of the ball our back- field looked like good puntera. While our rooters and our participants were getting their wind and confidence for remember, dear reader, we were then Freshmen and engaging in our first championship battle the Sopho- more team put in an appearance. Such a difference in appearance as there was in thozse two teams. Ankle braces galore made the Sophs look like all-American players. With almost an entire serub backfield and with two experienced men on the LRIGH Two Hundred Forty-nine flanks they ran up and down the field like a well-oiled machine. Details were arranged and the goals chosen. Brass knuckles, lead pipes, baseball spikes, and biting were all barred. A careful inspection was made by a mixed committee. Damaging evidence to both sides was found. Through a misunderstanding of our coaching staff, lining up to re- ceive a kick-off had been left from our catalogue of football phenoma. Bess, Jim, and Johnnie were soon on the field and a respectable lay- out of our fighting material was soon evident at the far end of Frazer ield. The ball was teed up, belts tightened, headguards put on mostly backwards, and everyone was on his toes. Brrr Brrrwent the whistle shrilly. Plunk! went the kicker's foot as it met the pigskin and the game was on. With the kick-off all the awkwardness fell from the Fresh team and we started. Slam, bang, biff; first Gertie, then Walt, then Al then Johnnie, ploughed, shoved, fought, chewed ves, that's good their way through the Sophs line until the ball rested in mid-field. Then a fumble and the Sophs took the ball, Three times the experienced backs of the Sophs tried to rip their way through our lines only to be stopped by Bill McCorkindale and those men he threw into the plays. Punts were frequently exchanged, and to watch Len Daley get down under the high twisters from Walt Ritz's toe was a joy to our hearts. Time and time again he smashed Marston just as the latter caught the ball. When Aker got Len, Sammy Lambert got Marston, and when those two small ends got a man they sure got him. In the second half Gertie and Bim had a little battle all their own and the whole fields re-echoed with the grunts of these two gladiators as they met head-on in the open field. Al Dougherty, in the fourth play of the game, had his shoulder broken but continued to play until he was taken out by the coaches who knew that the Irishman was hurt. John- nie Bernardo tore men and passes down everywhere; and at one time he came out of a play almost naked. A time was called and Johnnie was made presentable again to those fair co-eds who had risked the perils of Depot Road to witness this battle royal. The first half ended with the ball in our possession on our foe's 30-yard line. A sweet young thing in the grandstand who had arrived at the last minute of play was heard to ask, What is the score? When told 0 to 0 she said, Oh, then we haven't missed a thing. We gtill claim she did. The time between halves was spent in giving more advice and in using much profanity. With an eye for business many students scoured the field and banks for the Fatimas, Piedmonts, etc., which had fallen from the war- riors during their first workout in years. During this short period Brother Henvis led the class in prayer for the success of our arms. By this time A1 Dougherty was in the hospital and about four more were wishing myay g Two Hundred Fifty they were with him. Our seouts brought word that consternation reigned in the Soph camp over our unexpected showing of football and pugilistic prowess, Forty-eight lemons and four gallons of water were used to revive our heroes. Finally the lifting committee got the team to its feet again one by one, of course, and showed them the goal that they were to at- tack, and also the one that they were to defend. The five-minute whistle blew and both teams again appeared trying to look more ferocious than Bver. The second half opened with the Fresh kicking off to the Sophomores. At the very start the Sophs pulled a thirty-vard forward pass which caused the coaches to faint on the side lines. However, when they opened their eves again they saw Johnnie Bernardo intercept a pass and romp back twenty yards. Walt then punted and the fighting was again in the enemy's territory. As time went on and wind grew gshorter the playing became more fierce and localized, When near the side lines some Soph spectator landed on Lambert and put him down for the count of seven. Lambert and Dan Casey put down three for the count of 14. Time was called, order restored and a couple of our players and the Sophs, too, who were singing After the Battle, Mother, were led gently away to have their heads baked with the much-used electric baking machine at the in- firmary under the direct supervision of Chief Engineer Miss Beck. After many thrills, hard tackles, bloody noses, torn jerseys and black eyes, the referee, observing the rules of the 8. P. C. A., mercifully put an end to the deadlock and called the mateh a draw. It took each class at least half an hour to take the debris this included the players from the field. Numerous arguments and T told you sos were in evidence, We hope never to witness such a stupendous, stirring, gripping ex- hibition of gladitorial combat as we did on that day in our first battle, We had drawn first blood in that we had held a team which was the betting favorite by 6 to 1, to a scoreless tie. And when the seniors, represented by Zeke Ruth, bet against us it was a sure sign that we were numbered as the goats, because Zeke bet on a sure thing. Our class had found jteelf and on the scarred bodies of these our warriors we swore never to lose an athletic contest in our Freshman year. We lived up to our oath. After the benediction by Brother Henvis and a Well done our good and faithful warriors, we went joyfully to our various lodgings to chatter about our class team and eventually to land in the tub or in the showers. Tawe Hundred Fifty-one OLASS TRACK TEAM The First Track Meet This first track meet and our first athletic event upon the eampus of Old Delaware is very vague and dim in our memories. The mention of a few names and a few incidents, humorous and otherwise, may serve to recall the first test through which 1920 passed so bravely. Unorganized and with no dope on the ma- terial our class contained, we were so busy observ- ing the first law of nature, namely, self preserva- tion, that a thought of anything so peaceful and dignified as a Freshman-Sophomore track meet never entered our overtaxed brains. True to form the Sophs rushed us in this matter as in all others, and without consultation the meet was set for the Monday following our entrance. Speaking very frankly, very few of our members really knew what a track meet was, but George Van Dyke, the Salem wizard, explained the matter to us and we prepared for the worst., The Sophs had told us of the fleet-footed and and clean-limbed ath- letes against whom our team would have to battle. Wishing to make Like Meet Like we called a class meeting led by our President, Bess Carter, A T. MCOOMMELL Two Hundred Fifty-ftwo - N B 1 B4 and proceeded to look around for the man to lead our track team, Away back in the corner we saw a quiet chap whom the Wilmington boys called Tom McDonnell. Tom came to us with a reputation as a polevaulter and hurdler, and in the course of events we saw Tom elected captain of our first class track team. We then asked all men who were track athletes to step out. Modesty was prevalent and no one moved. We then called for all men who thought they were track athletes. We then had a mob for sure. Tall ones, short ones, skinny ones, fat ones, and all varieties made our class look like the 57 varieties. The Sophs, confident of victory, had an imposing array of costumes, ankle braces, and track shoes. Our class, searching high and low, found a few outfits which were relies of the prehistoric times. The meet was called for three in the afternoon. Our class assembled in a body and escorted our team to the field. Our hopes arose in the first event when a chap we knew as Lyons drew a first place for 1920. This started the fireworks and our whole col- lection of misfits was transformed from a frightened and doubtful team to an aggressive and determined one. Monohan and Graves kept up the good work by placing in the sprints, and the firat part of the meet found us run- ning neck to neck with the Sopha. Gradually the Sophs pulled away from us until it looked as though we were in for a drubbing, McDonnell, however, came in a winner in both hurdle events and Williams and Chambers also scored in the high and broad jump respectively. Kite and Brewer drew first places for us in the half-mile and mile, and we were soon on an equal footing with the Sophs. Silver, Daley, Bugless, Walker, Barnard, and Ritz also turned in a few points for our side of the ledger. At no time during the meet was the outcome evident. Tom McDonnell in order to finish the day in an inspiring manner took first place in the pole vault. The scorers started to count up the score while both factions held their breath. Finally the announcer bawled, The score stands tied at 54 to 54.7 Thus did our first track meet end to the jov of every man in the class of 1920. The Sophs had endeavored to catch us asleep, but we came from behind and tied up. We are proud to state that the team which tied the Sophs in this meet has always succeeded in defeating the class of 1919 and 1921 in every track meet held up to the time of the writing of this article. And this team says: And though we hope not hence unsecarred to go, Who conquers us shall find a stubborn foe. 1 Two Hundred Fifty-three e F.B. CARTER W. E, BARMARD After tying up in football and in the first track meet we decided to get started in the right direction by a big win. With this object in view we set out to organize a class basketball team which we prophesied would be a champion and which was all that and more too. When at a class smoker this subject of getting started early was brought up, we paused for a moment to take a survey of those speed kings of the wooden way whom we ecould muster for the class team. At that time we had Johhny Selby, Jim Clancey, Bess Carter, Dan Casey, Bill Blickle, Walt Ritz, Toddy Ferguson, Dick Bar- nard, and Phil Marvel, all making a bid for the varsity team. As time passed and the varsity took form we found that Selby, whom we had elected captain of our eclass team, Clancey, his pal, and Casey were in- cluded in the varsity squad. The rest of our gang formed the nucelus for a corking good scrub team which had the varsity hopping on several occasions. Clancey, Selby and Casey, being classed varsity men, were not available for our class team. After two nights of practice we all sojourned to the gym to watch our team perform. When we said team we said something. It sure was a team. Big Dick Barnard, six feet one ineh in height, with 170 pounds of beef, was the pivot of our combination. At forwards Toddy Ferguson and Walt Ritz the old Newark high school combination worked in and out under the basket like flashes of lightning. Both of these men were ideal athletes, the former six feet tall and built in proportion, the latter five feet nine inches and set up like a race horse. At guards we sure had our prize packages for size and weight. Bill Blickle, six feet one inch and weigh- ing 185 pounds, covered his side of the floor like a net. At the other guard Bess Carter, fresh from a varsity football job, loomed like Blickle's shadow. While these two men were built more for solid comfort than for speed they could sure move and cover fast. Alternating at forward was Two Hundred Fifty-four Phil Marvel, a fast floor man and a good foul shot, ready to hop in the game at any position and play a good fast game. After a look at this aggregation we imme- diately fared forth to loosen the straps of our wal- lets in order to show our confidence in our team. We had very little trouble in placing our money as all the other classes were equally sure of winning. Of course our practice had been in seeret or it would not have been thus. Our first game was with the Sophs. THE SOPHOMORE GAME On the day of the game the gym was crowded. All chairs and dumbbells and in fact anything that L could be thrown were removed before the battle. Weapons were collected at the door by a searching committee of Seniors. Blue-capped Sophs and red- capped Fresh glared at each other from opposite sides of the balecony. After Van Dyke and Berry Franklin had fallen out of the baleony and about five yards of the railing and about three tons of Sophomores had crashed to the floor below, the spectators were ready for the game. The referee called both teams to the middle of the floor, telling them to break in the clinches without punching, and that only Marquis of Ras- berry rules would be permitted. Both teams lined up and the whistle piped, starting one of the fastest and cleanest interclass games ever played. The Soph team got the jump and by a burst of speed soon tallied five points; two well-executed plays netting two field goals, and a foul shot giv- ing them the other point. Our team seemed to experience ditficulty in get- ting started. Only the clever guarding of Carter and Elickle kept the score down. Due to the clever shooting of Truss, the Soph forward, the score soon stood 10 to 0 in favor of the Sophs. By this time our rooting seetion came to life and began to yell and plead for action. A foul was called on an offending Sops, and Walt Ritz dropped the ball through the net for our only point during the entire first half. Just as Truss shot a foul goal for the iuphs, the whistle blew, ending the first half. Secore: Sophs, 11; Fresh, 1. During the time between halves many nice things were said hoth up- stairs and downstairs. Rooting then started in earnest. Both teams re- appeared, one jubilant and confident, the other sullen and determined. The second half was an exact reacting of the first only this period saw the Fresh get the jump and start on that long pull to cut down the big lead of 10 points. Slowly but surely Walt, Fergie, and Dick cut down the lead. Aided by the long passing of Blickle and Carter they soon had the score 11 to 8 in favor of the Sophs. Time was called while the Sophs made some substitutions. Our team was just hitting its stride and seemed to be L Two Hundred Fifty-five moving around the Sophs at will. With the start of play Dick spun a long one through the net, and we needed only one point to tie. Fergie then dribbled through a broken floor and caged a beautiful field goal which gave us the lead, 12 to 11. Walt then put the game on ice by caging a field goal. Fergie then scored again and the whistle ended the game with the score 16 to 11 in our favor, After staying and watching the Juniors defeat the Seniors in a close game, we still decided to bet on our team the following week when it played the Juniors for the championship of the college, With much gusto and noise we collared the Sophs money and the Sophs' goat, which by this time was running wild all over the campus. THE JUNIOR GAME The Junior team was a fine team and we are not yet done patting our- selves on the back for handing them the setback we did. With Chet Smith, Scuts Lauristen, and Al O'Daniel of football fame, and Bowen and Holland, two basketball players of no mean ability, they presented a line-up worthy to test the strength of our team. And they did test their strength, and we did test our strength, literally and physically, as any fair- minded spectator will testify. Let us quote, if you please, a few lines from an article in a Wilming- ton newspaper, The press agent was a Soph and not a Fresh as might be supposed. The article read as follows: The clags of 1920 Freshmen won the basketball championship of Delaware College, beating out the class of 1918 Juniors in the deciding game of the series after a bitterly fought battle by the score of 18 to 12. Tt was the first defeat in the career of the Junior class, which had won the championship two years running, the present Freshmen starting off in the game manner in which the Juniors did their first year in college. Fesling ran high throughout the game and every point was bitterly fought for before it was conceded. Before the series opened it was pre- dicted that the Juniors would come through with another title, but the all- around team play of the Freshies proved too much for them. The score at the end of the first half stood 10 to 6 with the first year men on the long end. Close guarding throughout featured, with the honors going to Carter and Blickle of the Freshmen. It was due to their fine guarding that the Juniors score was kept down. Bowen, of the Juniors, had three field goals, and Barnard, of the Freshmen, led the teams with four double-deckers from the floor. Added excitement was furnished in this game by a sparring contest be- tween Holland, of the Seniors, and Ritz, of the Freshmen. The ref scored the K. 0. however, by sending both men to the showers. In fact the game was marred by rough playing throughout, although the spectators Twoe Hundred Fifty-sic Faculty included enjoyed the slaughter. At times foothall and wrestling took preference over basketball. In all forms of athletics from football to bowling 1920 had her own way. When the final whistle blew we were champions of the college.

Not being afflicted with bagh- fulness, and having cleaned up in basketball and track we decided to annex the baseball cham- pionship. This we did in a truly 1920 way. Having supplied the varsity with Pitcher Jimmy Clancey, First Baseman Bess Carter, Third Baseman Johnny Selby, Center Fielder George Madden, Right Fielder Toddy Fergu- gon, and later on when Taggert left with Second ' l Baseman Gugie McCardell, and also Infielder A EHILLAS Pphil Marvel and Outfielder Walt Ritz, we decided to take the remaining 57 ball players and pick a team therefrom. We picked a team that was a team in a class all by itself, and needless to say we won the championship hands down. Ably coached by our varsity classmates we soon rounded into form, and on one fine day we found ourselves opposing the Sophs on Frazer Feld for the first game of the series. Needless to say we were the betting fa- vorites and a sure bet at that. Art Chillas and Walt Ritz formed our battery. Both Walt and Art had played in varsity games but lacked enough innings to give them letters, and boys, this battery had the stufl. This battery was backed by a wonderful team. With Oleott on first, Len Daley on second, Phil Mar- vel on short, and Dick Walker on third, we had an infield which made the Sophs look like League X Y Z. Phil Marvel had also played in var- sity games but was still eligible for our class team. In the outfield we had Dan Casey, Dizzy Jann, and Johnnie Bernardo, all three dangerous hitters and human fly traps. The umpire, taking his life in his hands, gamely announced the batteries and the glaughter was on. When the first inning was over it was evident that the only things which might stop our scoring was the fact that our players might become exhausted eircling the bases, When the last strike had plunked into Walt's big mit the seore-book ghowed that Art had pitched us to a 16 to 2 win. wAE and Walt were invineible, and LHLE Tiwoe Hundred Fifty-eight whenever an opposing sticker did hit one on these two, Len Daley, Phil Marvel or Dan Casey were there to haul it in. The team play was flaw- less, not an error being marked against the Fresh. MeMillan, who started for the Sophs, was roughly treated by the Fresh, his offerings being ham- mered to all parts of the field for base and extra base hits, After three Soph outfielders became exhausted running the long extra base hits of Jann, Walker, Ritz, and Marvel, a new relay, was run in. Truss, who re- lieved MeMillan, was also rudely treated by one lonely Fresh. Speed and inside dope were especially prevalent among the 1920 war- riors. The only things our base-runners did not steal on the catcher were his shin guards and his jersey. As to inside dope Jann was the star. With gecond and third base occupied, Jann was instructed to bunt for the squeeze. He bunted a three-bagger over the centerfielder's head, but as we had no manager he was not fined. Fired to greater things by this victory, we determined to take the Seniors into camp in the following game. SENIOR GAME Shorty Voegler, when speaking of the Senior-Freshmen baseball game, remarked, I know now why the Seniors lost that game. They LEL didn't score as many runs as the Freshmen! Shorty never spoke a truer thing in his life. We won the inter- class baseball championship of Delaware College by handing the Seniors a well-deserved setback to the tune of 8 to 1. After five innings of hard hit- ting and reckless base-running on our part, the Seniors decided to call it a day, and packing up their two bats and three gloves they turned their minds to the far more pleasant thought of graduation rather than to the losing of their athletic prestige. The Seniors were the first to score, their lone tally coming in the first inning before our battery was warmed up. After the first inning Chillas sent them baek to the bench in one, two, three order, and if any did get on base they became easy prey for the pegging arm of Walt Ritz. When the heavy artillery of the Freshmen batting order got into action hits rattled to all parts of the field. Led in the assault by Jann, Daley and Ritz, the Freshmen scored four runs in the third, and after this scored almost at will. In the fourth, hits by Oleott, Marvel, Walker, Casey, Bernardo and Chillas' fh Two Hundred Fifty-nine NBE long sacrifice fly netted four more runs for 1920. At this stage of the game the Senior battery, Smith and Reynolds, heard the dinner bell and the game was called by request. The score: FRESHMEN SENIORS RB. H. 0. A. E. R. H. 0.

Fresh-Soph Track Meet 5 Upon returning to college in the fall we I decided to tame the Freshmen in some other way than by class fights, because we were indeed sadly outnumbered. As a matter of fact our whole class was in fine condition, having run many, many miles around and through Newark in an effort to catch or avoid the hordes of Freshmen who steadily poured in. So when the upper classmen announced the interclass meet we were ready and waiting, and we handed the proud and vain Freshies a very 220 bad defeat. As a matter of fact we almost doubled the score on them. On the day of the meet our team sure looked like champions. Tom MecDonnell, pole vaulter, hurdler, and broad Jumper: Harry Loose, shot putter, broad jumper, and discus heaver; Norm Thomas, quarter-miler and sprinter; Walt Ritz, sprinter; Paul Kite, half-miler, and relay run- ner; Hudson, Silver, I:Jl-f:;nt:ruN Daley and Bugless, point-getters anywhere; and Arbie Arhuckle, pole vaulter, miler, and high jumper; these men constituted our Soph team. Our relay team which won the guarter-mile relay was composed of Thomas, Silver, Kite and Graves. From the minute Ritz started the scoring with a second place in the hundred vard dash, Me- Donnell, Loose, Kite, Arbuckle, Thomas and the rest continued to pile up peint after point. Tom McDonnell was our star, winning four first places in the 120- yvard hurdles, 220-yard hurdles, pole vault, and broad jump respectively. After this meet we held several other meets, only they usually were informal and took place around midnight.

In short, we met our Water- loo on Frazer Field when the Freshmen, with a mighty eleven, crushed our plucky team under the score of 20 to 0. The Freshmen had a heavy line against which our light back field, composed of Ritz, MeCardell, Gordy and Oleott, could do very little. With Vita, Kleine, Jones, Ruos, Rettew, Foulk and Lord, the Fresh presented a line which easily outweighed that of the varsity. With Young, Pierson, Alexander and Spaid in the back field they succeeded in scoring 20 points. The better team won by playing better football. The game was clean and fast and more closely contested than the score implies. Forward passes which our inexperienced back field could not break up, either scored the touchdowns for the Sophs or else put them within striking distance of the goal, The Fresh kicked off to the Sophs who advanced the ball to the middle of the field by straight football. A forward pass was intercepted by Alex- ander, the Fresh halfback, who started for the goal with a clear field, only to be hauled down by Dick Barnard on the one-yard line. Although out- weighed our line gave a wonderful exhibition of football. Four times the heavy Fresh team crashed forward to score a touchdown, only to be stopped by Lattomus, Barnard, Nelson or Thomas. The Sophs kicked out of dan- ger but could not hold the advantage very long. A well-directed forward pass to Lord gave the Fresh their first touchdown. In the third quarter Young, the Freshman left halfback, broke away for a long forty-yard run which placed the Fresh in a position to score. Our team held for downs and took the ball. A forward pass was attempted and Spaid, the Freshman fullback, snatched the ball and by clever open-field running scored the second touchdown, In the fourth guarter Pierson, Alexander and Spaid hammered their way into the Soph territory, carrying the ball to the thirty-yard line. A long forward pass, Young to Foulk, then resulted in the third touchdown. Alexander kicked the goal and the scoring was over. Barnard and Lattomus in the line, and Ritz in the backfield, were our stars, bringing down man after man with fierce tackling.

TimerWhittier, Tweo Hundred Sizty-four BGL Basketball In our Sophomore year we were unable to repeat our performance of winning the basketball championship. With Carter, Barnard and Ritz of the Freshmen champion team on the varsity team and therefore ineligible for our class team, and with Ferguson and Blickle in the service, 1920 faced a serious problem in gathering a team which might successfully battle with the incoming Freshmen class with its wealth of basketball material. True to form, however, we made a plucky fight, and although the class of 1921 romped off with a well-earned championship, we had the satisfaction of tyving for second place, and this showed that we were not outclassed by the others. Phil Marvel, Gudgie MecCardell, Paul Kite, Hank Gordy and Harry Loose carried our banner through this long, hard series and came through with flving colors. To the class of 1921, captained by Sank' Mec- Caughan, we wizsh to offer our congratulations for going through a season with an unbroken record of wins. We still elaim that our original championship team could have done the same thing had it remained intact, but as we offer no alibis we can only say that the best team won. Twoe Hundred Sizty-five THE RELAY The Inter-Class Track Meet On Tuesday, May 30th, 1918, our class revenged itself upon the Freshmen for the football defeat by beating them out for second place in the inter-class meet. The class of 1918, led by Capt. Davy Crockett of the varsity, ably assisted by Harry Alexander, Buz Meyers and Scuts Lauristen, suc- ceeded in piling up enough points to insure them a comfortable lead and eventually the meet., We were out to beat the Fresh and the Juniors and we simply walked away with second place. With Paul Kite winning first place in the half- mile, and with Graves and Norm Thomas pulling down two thirds and a second in the hundred, 220, and quarter-mile respectively, we soon loomed as contenders for the championship. Harry Loose pulled down ten points for us by bagging first place in the discus throw and the shot-put. Ar- buckle finished second, and Colpitts third in the two-mile run. Boeb Poole pulled a second place in the mile after a game race. Arbuckle also placed in the high jump. Buck finished third in the half-mile run. The results were as follows: 100-Yard DashFirst, Crockett, 1918; second, Hearne, 1919; third, Graves, 1920.

Fat Man's RaceFirat, Carter, 1920; second, Roach, 1921 ; third, Hann, 1918, By winning this victory over the Fresh and Juniors we showed a flash of our old time form. In track we were unfortunate in losing Monohan, Chambers, Lyons, Wil- liams and all those old men who in our Freshmen year helped us to carry away many honors. LOOSE FAT MAN'S RACE i Two Hundred Sizty-seven IMEGLUE U Baseball Due to the war many students were leaving college to go into the serv- ice and upon the advice of the Athletic Council the interclass baseball series was abandoned, Of our original championship baseball team very few re- mained. Art Chillas, our pitcher, and Dick Walker, our third base- man, were both in the Navy. Jann and Daley, our centerfielder and second baseman respectively, were in the infantry, and Oleott, our first baseman, was preparing to go to training eamp. Of our varsity men in the Freshman vear, Selby and Toddy Fergu- aon, having won their commission, were preparing to leave for training camp, and Clancey had left college. Prospects for interest in baseball were therefore not bright. When the suggestion came that series be abandoned we readily agreed. BASEBALL RURL Two Hundred Sizty-eight FOOTBALL: W. Stewart M.

Major Ward E. Duwvall, C. A., entered upon his duties ac com- mandant of the college battalion just after the demobilization of the 8. A. T. C. Major Duvall's military career has been characterized by qualities which make him a soldier of the Arst merit. Graduating from West Point as one of the highest and youngest men in his class, he was commissioned in the Coast Artilley. Promcted rapidly he was made commandant of Fort Du Pont in 1018, in which office he exer- cizsed a potent influence in training men for service in France. Finally he was permitted to organize a battery of his own for overseas serv- ice. The organization which he then built ap arrived in France a few days before the signing of the armistice, too late to be of service in action against the enemy, but able to render valuable service in the administration of Brest. Upon the return of his battery to this coun- try in January, Major Duvall was placed among the officers for R. O. T. C. instroction and given charge of the Delaware Collegre unit. L Twe Hundred Seventy-one CoLONEL EDWIN P. PENDLETON, U. S. A., Rid. Colonel Edwin P. Pendleton, U. 8. A, Rtd., the commandant of the college battalion, and of the 8. A. T. C., has been succeeded by Major Ward E. Duvall, C. A. During his term as military instroctor, the military department of Delaware College was strengthened and improved. Due to Colonel Pendletom's effort the R. 0. T. C., which was established in September 1817, was made possible. In addition to paining the respect and admiration of the whole college, he has, in spite of his brief residence in Newark, made numerous other friends. is ability as a leader was clearly shown during the early stages of the 8. A. T. C., in which he had to meet the ever-present crisis with practical, well-thought-out plans. As a soldier we admired him. He was graduated from West Point in 1879 and was in active serviee until 1914, the time of his retirement. During his military career he gerved as Second Lieutenant and First Lieutenant in the Twenty- third 1. 8. Infantry; as Captain in the Spanish-American War, and in Indian Territory; as Major and Lieutenant Colonel in the Twenty- third U. 8. Infantry; and as Colonel in the Twenty-sixth and First Infantry. i Colonel Pendleton was an efficient officer and a high, noble-minded gentleman, We have missed him sinece his retirement. We trust that Colonel Pendleton holds the student hu:rdEof Delaware College in as much esteem as they do their Colonel. Next year we hope to see the Colonel as a visitor among his many friends in Newark. CHLH Twa Hundred Seventy-two THE BATTALION Military During the past year the college has passed through two distinet and altogether different conditions,from being a military post to returning to a civil basis. On July 1, 1918, the entire college plant was placed at the disposal of the War Department to be used in the training of mechanics for the national army, and throughout the summer classes had been busily working in the shops, taking courses in gas engines, electricity, radio, ma- chine shopwork, and bench wood work. Meantime Congress passed the bill creating the Students' Army Training Corps, an organization designed to prevent the disruption of the college threatened by the lowering of the draft age to 18, and to guarantee to the army an adeguate supply of officer material until the war should have been won. In the fall the organization of the Delaware College Unit was begun, Many delays, chief amongst which was the epidemic of influenza, operated to prevent the smooth working of the new regime, but finally, on October 12 to 14, 215 students were regu- larly inducted into the United States Army for the unit. Sixteen other stu- dents, not of age for enlistment, were also enrolled in the college unit. Academic instruction was carried on by the regular faculty. The col- lege as a military post was under the command of Captain Victor N. Camp, U. 8. A., assisted by six infantry officers, a quartermaster, and a medical officer. Drill and diseipline were in charge of First Lieut. Robert W. Glenn, Infantry, who had served with A. E. F. in the Vosges sector between April and July. The medical officer was First Lieut. Milton Aronowitz, M. C., to Two Hundred Seventy-three e whom was due the escape of the college from the worst consequences of the influenza epidemic. The personnel officer was Second Lieut. Kent Roberta Greenfield, Infantry, a member of the faculty, on leave of absence, and a graduate of the Plattsburg S. A. T. C. Camp. The unit was demobilized December 13. It was ranked by District Headquarters as one of the five most efficient units of the fifty-five in the Third District. It is difficult to gauge accurately the results of the 8. A. T. C. at Dela- ware. That it did little real good iz evident, but that it did not contain possibilities for accomplishing the purposes for which it was designed is not 5o evident. The whole fault lay in the short time which was given the organization for justifying itself, and perhaps it is best to lay it aside as a past experience and an unfinished experiment, withholding all judgment upon it. When the college reopened after the Christmas holidays, it was back upon the old civil basis. Some of the students who had been enlisted in the 8. A. T. C. did not return to the college, while a number of the regular col- lege students who had been in the service did return to their work. The military side of the college had returned to its previous status along with the other work, and Major Ward E, Duvall, C. A., had been assigned to the college as commandant. Under his direction the R. D. T. C. became a real live part of the college organization and it is now placed upon a basis which gives it great promise for future development. iii, e Fg'w!k- ! 1 e T -L THE THREE SERGEANTS YR Two Hundred Seventy-four AMBULANCE The ambulance, presented to the college by the Dela- ware Society of Daughters of the American Revolution, was in constant use during the influenza epidemic of 1918-19, manned by a faithful corps of Delaware College students. The Daughters of the American Revolution have also given to the college the handsome State banner carried in all student processions, and they are the donors of the annual prize offered for excellence in military tactics, known as the Lieutenant Clarke Churchman Memorial Prize.

ROBERT MOORE Three Hundred IUEGTUE U Epilogue And now, kind readers, you have the book, long overdue. Before condemning the work of the Blue Hen Board of the class of 1920, remember that the time was limited and that the task was difficult, This publication is the work of a few students who have given their time and energy to produce a Blue Hen worthy of their Alma Mater. We have endeav- ored to portray all the phases of college life, and if we have failed in this endeavor, the fault lies in the scope of the work rather than in the sincerity of our effort. To Mr. Edward S. Cannon, who so ably assisted us in our work, we wish to express our appreciation. We feel that much of the eredit for this publication should be given to him. To Mr. Alexander Blair, Jr., 1920, and to Mr. Charlesworth Carswell, 1920, the student body owes a debt of gratitude for the part they took in the preparing of this boolk. Our work is now finished. We trust that the Blue Hen of the class of 1921 may surpass this publication in every respect and take its place as a more worthy representative of Delaware College. Editor-in-Chief.

It iz also completing its first half century as a State institution. With wealthy and influen- tial friends coming to its assistance, with a loyal and devoted band of Alumni, its outlook is indeed bright, The Arts and Science course has recently been greatly: strengthened by a course in Business Administration and Fi- nance under Dr. Homer Hoyt of the University of Chicago, who is both a lawyer and a business man, and a course in Teacher Training under Prof. W. A. Wilkinson, an educator of wide experience. Students in Arts and Science may obtain not only a broad liberal education but also preperation to fill re- sponsible positions in the business world and in the teaching profession, The courses in Civil, Mechanical, Electrical and Chemical Engineering and in Marine Transportation are ably manned and well equipped to prepare young men for the work of re- construction following the great war. In the Agricultural Department students are fitted for practical farming and farm superintendencies and for taking positions in experiment stations. Some of our recent graduates are now filling professorships in agriculture. For entrance to the college a four-year high school course or equivalent is required. Tuition free to Delawareans: to others, $50. For catalog and information write to E. L. SMITH, Dean, Newark, Delaware, g - 0T B A R TR BT R RS i 5 o S ya AR !HH 1H'!

If a dentist eould examine the teeth of every person in a theatre to- night, he would find nearly everyone needing dentistry of scme kind. Nine pecple out of ten never go to a dentist until pain drives them. They negleet their teeth because they do not understand the rela- tion of good teeth to good health. A neglected mouth breeds disease. People who have bad teeth can- not chew food properly. This leads to indigestion. Indigestion, moving in a vicious eirele throngh many ills, leads again to decay of the teeth. A decaying tooth is a sick tooth. 1f it is not restored to health it breeds germs which carry disease thronghout the system. T Negleeted teeth hinder the growth of the child and undermine the health of the adult. Do not wait for a toothache to send ycu to the dentistlet him pre- vent trouble. Go today. The L. D.

It gives us pleasurs to contribute this space to the college anmual and to hespenk for the institution the liveliest interest of a public that has so much of a moral and material nature at stake in the college, It also affords ue specinl pleasore to emphasize the fact that if Delaware College is to grow amd prosper, the foundation for such growth and prosperity must be found in o fixed determination on the part of Delaware parents to send mir sons to Newark to obtain their higher education, It will continue to be the poliey of THE EVENING JOURNAL to promote at all times in ite editorial, news and sporting columns the very best interests of Old Delaware.
