1 WTUCKMN YBflH BOOK PUBLISHED BY THE CL JSS OF 191 UNIVERSITY KENTUCKY VOLUME 33 3 3 1 CHAMPLIN PRESS, COLLEGE PRINTERS. COLUMBUS, OHIO • • • « 1 157 8 9 3r7‘8.v?fec1 Editor s Foreword INCE it is difficult to make the subject matter in a College Annual different from year to year, the Staff this year has changed the style and arrangement of the book, wherever expedient, thus hoping to make the 1915 Kentuckian different from those preceding it. It has been the editorial policy to give each and every person a fair representation, and if we have failed in this it is due to mistakes of the head and not the heart. While it is true that the book contains more raillery than those which have preceded it, nevertheless it is done with malice toward none. “Originality” has been the watchword and while a few ideas are adaptations, the majority are original. Many mistakes have crept into the book due to its being the work of many hands and to the limited amount of time consumed in its compilation. It has been our aim to give to the Class of 1915, which is the greatest in point of numbers, good fellowship and ability, a book commensurate, in a way, with their prestige. Wc hope you will like it now and that it will help brighten passing years by recalling some half forgotten memory of the happy, care-free undergraduate days. To the Class of 1915, and to their friends, by whom and for whom this book is primarily written, with the knowledge that they will be lenient in criticism of any discrepancies, the following pages of the record of our Class and University, is respect- fully submitted.

He that doth the ravens feed, Yea, providently caters for the sparrow, Be comfort to my age!” Which may not sound very complimentary to a lady, but feeding the sparrows,” etc., is one of the best things this zealous Home Economics Senior does. A hard worker, conscientious student, and a maker of good grades, Jessie Elizabeth” will some day become known in the Ec” and Afj” world,—unless she chooses to hide her light in that large city where she spent her early years. We would like to have something to ‘‘goodtime” Jessie about, but she has been too dern sly for us. Gross Runkel Allison, B.C.E., Center Hall, Pa. - X; Tau Beta Kake; Transit Staff; Turtles; R. S. C. E. The man that hath a tongue, I say, is no man. If with his tongue, he cannot win a woman.” Tape” hasn’t been with us long, as he did his under- graduate work at Penn State, and only joined Dean Rowe’s happy throng at the beginning of his Senior year. No doubt the ‘‘fair women of the Blue Grass” was an attraction too great for Tape” to resist. This may not have been the cause, but whatever it was, we are glad that some kind fate caused this sunny personality to blow into Lexington. George Bowen Arnold, B.M.E., Earlington 11 K A; T B 11; Lamp and Cross; President Pan—Hellenic Council; Track Team (2); Vice President Dynamic En- gineering Society (1); Vice President A. S. M. E. (4); Treasurer Dynamic Engineering Society (4); A. I. E. E. Neat, trimly drest, Fresh as a bridegroom, and his chin new reaped.” George” is a true disciple of Morpheus and does not believe in going to class too early. It’s certainly nice that wc have had him all this year to lead our dances—always in his dress suit. Although “George” does not look upon the wine when it is red, lie has a profound regard for Brewers.” Joseph Guy Aud, B.M.E., Owensboro T B n, President (4); T B II, lionor Man (3); Dyna- mic Engineering Society, Secretary (3); A. S. M. E.; Treasurer A. 1. E. E.; Daviess County Club; Catholic Club. Whatever he did was done with so much ease. In him alone ’twas natural to please.” The greatest disappointment in Little Gink’s” life was the time that he failed to make Tau Beta Kake. To keep him from feeling disheartened, the Tau Beta Pi arranged to take him in. He showed his gratitude by becoming the Honor Man; nevertheless he is still in good health and has an excellent appetite. In the future, we expect to see him one of the leading engi- neers of the country. It is rumored that she will be a school “inarm” when she returns to the boundless West, but we can hardly conceive of “Esther’” as being so sedate. Everybody from the Ag. to the Ed. Building knows Esther to be a sweet, whole hearted kid. James Yost Bailey, B.S.Agr., Adairville Mystic Circle; Varsity Football (3—4); Varsity Baseball (2) ; Manager Ag. Baseball Team (3); Agricultural Society. ----“The bravest are the tenderest The loving are the daring.” “Bill” is one of the lightest linemen ever on the State team. Jt is worth the price of admission to hear Bill give one of his hearty laughs. There is nothing that J. Yost does that he does not do well—and he does many things. We “wood” that we were going to be with Bill at school another year, but he has to get a start in life during the next two or three years, doesn’t he? It would not be hard to guess why. Harold Yancey Barker, B.M.E., Le.rington, Ky. '1' 11 II; Dynamic Engineering Society; Treasurer Dy- namic Engineering Society (3) ; Class Baseball (3) ; Presi- dent A. I. E. E.; A. I. E. E.; Turtles. “Of all sad words of tongue or pen. The saddest are these, ‘Fly’s collecting again.’ ” “I-Iy,” as lie is popularly known to those of his class- mates who have so many times contributed their, iota at his solicitation, is a natural born collector and as treas- urer of various organizations has worked the boys up to such a state that whenever they see him coming, they begin to assume expressions that would put a pawnbroker to shame. Fie also finds time to mingle with the fair sex in spite of the fact that he is a Mechanical. 35 Herrert E. Barth, Louisville Lamed Pe; Dynamic Engineering Society; A. S. M. E.; A. I. E. E.; Louisville Club. “Company, villainous company, have been the ruin of me.” Barlh is the lad with the rosy dutch make-up, that you have probably seen revolving blithely around Me- chanical Hall, or onc-stepping gracefully in the Armory. Since his coming here from Louisville, which he (like most persons from that city) thinks is the center of the Universe. Barth has made a wide circle of acquaint- ances, and a fine record as an Engineer. Lois Bartlett, B.S., Rockport Honor System Committee (2-3-4); Y. W. C. A. Cabi- net (2-3-4) ; Secretary of Philosophian Literary So- ciety (2); Treasurer of Philosophian (2-3); Y. W. C. A. Delegate to Black Mountain (2); Vice President of Philosophian (3) ; Student Assistant in Home Eco- nomics (3); Treasurer of Home Economics Club (4); President of Home Economics Club (4); Pennyroyal Club; Agricultural Society (3). “She was ever precise in promise-keeping.” What more could we add? Does not this formidable list of achievements crowd all else off the page? She is living up to the static and dynamic energy one would suspect from her Titian locks. Of course she has to, because she is taking Home Economics and that is “some course.” During her scholastic career she has accomplished so much, mentally, socially, and spiritu- ally. that one would think she must be a Bartlett “pair.” Max Carter Batsel, B.M.E., Fulton A. I. E. E.; A. S. M. E.; Dynamic Engineering So- ciety; T B n. “Learning by study must be won; ’Twas ne’er entail’d from son to son.” From the western part of the State comes one with the proof that the Mississippi River Hows up hill. This “one” is known by the name of “Carrie” and although hard study is given as an excuse for gray hairs, we are prone to believe that his worry over 'the opinion held of him by his roommate’s “Booful Baby” is the direct cause. He is a good student and should make good as a professor in spite of his roommate’s efforts to make him a ladies’ man. William Stewart Berkshire, Law, Petersburg AX; Varsity Track Team (3); Henry Clay Law So- ciety; Class Representative (4). “The first thing we do, Let’s kill all the lawyers.”—King Henry IV. The Berkshire Class wins another Blue Ribbon in the Stewart entry. The class has missed the old boy since he has been in Texas most of the time, but Patt Hall “misses him most of all.” No lawyer made a better record in the department than did he. He is an all ’round success. Jeanette Torrance Bell, A.B., Fulton Sorores Amoris; Horace Mann Literary Society; Vice President of Pennyroyal Club (3) ; Captain of Class Basket Ball Team (1); Idea Staff (4); Treasurer of Y. W. C. A. (4); Vice President of Senior Class (4). ----“And my heart began to swell, As down the glen away she went, My lost Kentucky Belle.” One doesn’t have to know Jeanette very long to un- derstand why she won the popularity contest last year. She is a capable student, an energetic worker, a loyal friend—that is “why.” ’Tis strange that one of Jean- ette’s fastidiousness could tolerate_ anything “Dusty.” She doesn’t care much for the “mighty pin”; and has her own ideas about “individualism.” Robert Louis Bierbaum, B.S.Agr., Louisville Cheer Leader (4); Captain “D” Co. (3); Agricultural Society, Fruit Judging Team (4); Louisville Club. “My name’s robert Louis.” There's no doubt that “Beer’s” name is Robert Louis —he told the Commandant so! He is one of those city Agriculturists that have heard the call of the soil. While leading the yells, no situation was so tense as to cause Bob’s pomp, to be disarranged. We won’t say a single little word about that cannon episode. Horace P. Bird, B.S. Agr., Shelbyville Saddle Horse Judging Team; Class Football (2, 3); Agricultural Society; Student Representative io Y. M. C. A. Convention ’at Kansas City, ’14; Turtles. “He who by the plow would thrive Himself must either hold or drive.” “Buzzard” is sure one astute business man. That crew at Mrs. Arnett’s boarding house has never suc- ceeded in making a squirrel of Horace although he is a “Turtle.” Horace has tried all kinds of college life from Fatimas to Tango Teas, but best of all he likes to take one of bis many friends behind him on his motorcycle and strike for the open country. Albert Ricketts Blackburn, B.M.E., Petersburg Mystic Circle; T S; 'I’ B K; Glee Club; University Quar- tette; A. S. M. E.; A. I. E. E.; Dynamic Engineering Society; Turtles. “There is no voice, whose tones inspire Such thrills of rapture through my breast.” If music hath charms to soothe the savage breast, “Blackie” can hypnotize a cage of monkeys with his sweet and mellifluous chords. His warbling was always a feature of the Glee Club concerts and with his brothers of the Tau Sigma, he is still occasionally seen on Sat- urday evenings, seeking whom he may serenade. Aside from his musical ability and his propensity for athletic girls, he has acquired considerable knowledge of mechani - cal engineering. 37 Amy Isabelle Breslin, B.S., Louisville Louisville Club; Philosophian Literary .Society; Horace Mann. “Home-keeping hearts are happiest.” From the demure face and quiet demeanor of this young lady, one might judge her to be a country lass; but she has so strongly evinced her preference for “Townes” that it seems she will be happy nowhere else! The height of her ambition will probably be realized next fall when she can “cadet” in Louisville and teach the rising generation the hardest method of extracting the cube root. Evidently she is an omnivorous reader, judging from the time she spends in the library. Rexie Brooks, A.B., Murray Sorores Amoris; Vice President of Horace Mann (2) ; Secretary of Pennyroyal Club (2); Y. W. C. A. “God gave her power to soothe and bless And the calm strength of gentleness.” When she entered college, Rexie must have adopted as her motto “I should worry!” for she is always in a good humor. Due to her pernicious influence, her roommate has recently become infatuated with THE department, and gives more attention to sewing than to her own “major.” A friendly word and a smile for every ore, a quiet poise and a level head—and you have Rexie Brooks, the sort of girl K. S. U. is glad to number among its graduates. John Esten Bolling, B.M.E., Louisville A T 0; T 2; Glee Club Manager (2, 3); University Quartette (2, 3); Strollers (1, 2. 3, 4); Business Man- ager (2), President (4); Class Orator (4); Idea Staff (2, 3, 1); Dynamic Engineering Society; A. S. M. E.; A. I. E. E.; T B K. “Run if you like, but try to keep your breath; Work like a man but don’t be worked to death.” If you have a blurred vision of a young man rapidly making a hole in the atmosphere of the campus, you may know that is “Jack.” Esten is in his element in college, and he is much inevidence in everything from dancing to dynamos. Esten would have probably made good in any depart- ment in school, since his talents and attainments are so varied. He has been “Jack the giant-killer” this year. Minott Brooke, B.M.E., Veechdale T B II; Treasurer T B II (4); President A. S. M. E. (4); A. T. E. E.; Dynamic Engineering Society; Class President (3); Subscription Manager Kentuckian; Class Baseball Manager (2); Member Student Senate (3). “He was a man, take him for all in all, 1 shall not look upon his like again.” The first public exhibition of this young man’s ability was made when he led his class through the year 1913 with flying colors. Of course, his own department recognized his true worth long before this and he was wisely selected to the much coveted membership of Tau Beta Pi. He is a quiet person but beneath the surface he has ambition, knowledge and initiative stored up in the uroper proportions to accomplish great things. Marguerite Brown, 15.S., Lexington Horace Mann Literary Society; Philosophian Lit- erary Society (2-3); Library Club. “The lady protests too much, methinks.” “Marge” is noted for her originality. Her reserve, self-reliance and independence combine with her mental acumen to make her a valued member of the class. The first glimpse of her “frizzly,” red-gold hair makes a fellow want to know her better. She could never be induced to set foot on a dance-floor but leaves that frivolous pastime to the rabble. Her indifference to all members of the masculine sex is aggravating—why she even got over the “Payne” of her Junior year! Teresa Eugenia Buchignani, A.B., Lexington Catholic Club; Vice President of Library Club (4). “The light of midnight’s starry heavens Within those radiant eyes!” Teresa is “Lexington Maid” and as one would judge from her name she is a Modern Language major.—and a good one, too. If you don’t believe it, ask “Zemmie.” She is the possessor of big, dark eyes, which probably owe their brightness to the hours she spent at the observatory last fall,—star-gazing. Whether she uses her talents to guide struggling students through the mazes of a library or of foreign languages, she will do her part forcefully but gently. Mary King Burrier, B.S., Nicholasville Secretary of Agricultural Society (3); Treasurer of Home Economics Club (4); Student Assistant in Home Economics (3). “Blow, Wind! Come, rack! At least we’ll die with harness on our back.” In Mary, behold the personification of industry! Her energy is boundless ard she completes every task with the precision of mechanism. If you told her that the progress of the world did not depend on the performance of her daily tasks, she would be no less surprised than Chanticleer’ when he discovered that his crow did not make the sun rise. Mary is one of those Home Eco- nomics “bugs” that can be found any minute of the dav or night “buzzing” around in that fascinating laboratory on the third floor of the Educational Building. James Elliott Byers, B.C.E., Ghent A A; Varsity Track Team (2-3); Gym Team; Tau Beta Kake; Transit Staff; Glee Club; B. S. C. E. “And just when evening turns the blue vault to grey, To spend two hours, in dressing for the day.” The frails certainly fall for “Jakie’s jaunty jabber.” He is the lad who put the tang in tango. If you ever attended a math class or a dance, you’ve seen Jakie, lie’s been attending both for four years. We will all miss the old boy, for he has certainly made life seem brighter for many since he has been around. 39 George F. Campbell, Butler Secretary A. 1. E. E. (-1); A. S. M. E.; Dynamic Engineering society; Student Track Manager (-1); Turtles. “Mix with your grave designs a little pelasure; Each day of business has its hour of leisure.” George is one of these honest-to-goodness fellows who knows more than he tells and he is not at all stingy with his talk. As one of the incomparable trio of Snodgrass, Walter and Campbell, he plays one of Lhe lead horns. George believes that “all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy” and he is always on the “qui vive” for a little, excitement. Ella Mae Cheatham. B.S., Louisville Sorores Amoris; Secretary Louisville Club (1); Vice President Louisville Club (3). “Her face is sweet, her brow is fair With the golden light in her sunny hair.” Yes, Ella Mae began her college career as a math, major, but a few days under J. Mort., convinced her of the error of her ways and since then she has waded bravely through various pedagogical works. “Sure! Nig’ and I are going over to the observatory tonight. Howard and Harold are thinking about taking astronomy too.” Next to Logic, Ella Mac likes sewing and many dainty handkerchiefs have passed through her hoops this spring. Ella Mae is one of the girls for which our state is famed. Walter Kenneth Clore, B.S.Agr., Ludlow K A Z Fat Stock Team, Kentuckian Business Staff. Class Baseball (1-2-3); Class Basket Ball (1) ; Strollers, Turtles, Agr. Society. “----and you will smile at their believing, And theyr shall weep at your deceiving.” Although an “Ag” and they call him the “Country Boy',” he does not look the part. “Chink,” as he is familiarly known is certainly loyal. He even went to a frat house to live this year. “Chink’s” ability in agricultural matters gained recognition when lie ’ was chosen for Alpha Zeta. He deserves most credit for having acted as Slim’s guardian angel. Kenneth has made good during his stay here, and he has won a host of friends. Anna Elizabeth Colegrove, A.B., Ashland Philosophian Literary Society; Critic of Horace Mann Literary Society (4); Vice President of Mountain Club (4); Y. W. C. A. “Full well they laughed with counterfeited glee At all her jokes, for many a joke had she.” Pass “ ‘Lizbeth’s” door almost any time of day and see her tatting! Tf y0u don’t want her to get up at 5 A. M. next morning to finish that work, please forbear asking her to play “Rook,” for she cannot resist, even though she “has to hurry” and tats between plays. Of course Elizabeth took Geology for she “was always crazy about Mountains”— even before she became interested in the Presidency'—oh, I mean Vice Presidencv of the Mountain Club. James Henry Coleman, A.B., Garretsburg A A 2; T. K. A.; Varsity Debating Team; President History Club; Secretary Union Literary Society (3); Secretary Democrat Chib (4); Henry Clay Law Society; Y. M. C. A. Cabinet; First Lieutenant (4); Press Asso- ciation. “Ah, me, That I the Judge’s bride might be.” “Judge” did not decide to join us until he had spent some time at Berea, but we have already forgiven him for that since he promised never to return. He began as a lawyer, but decided he had best take A. B. first, in order to grace a high and mighty bench some day as he should. “Judge” is some military man, as you may find out if you step out on the parade grounds some day. Townsel Combs, B.C.E., Smithsboro T 13 K, Mountain Club, Republican Club, B. S. C. E. “Correct to a gnat’s heel.” “Shorty” became a shark in math in his Senior year, and we wonder why he didn’t start sooner. When he does get “on the job” you can bet that it will he done right. “Shorty” is a true friend, and ready to help at all times. So here’s hoping, “old boy.” We would like to know the name of the little lass back at Smithsboro—he sure is faithful to her. Samuel Edwards Cooke, B.C.E., Harrodsburg T R K; President Brooks Engineering Society; Business Manager Transit; Six—One Club; Managers’ Club. “Welcome ever smiles And Farewell goes out sighing.” “Tiny” and “Little Un”—that has been an insepar- able team for four years. “Tiny” doesn’t care very much about frivolous pleasures; his greatest pleasure being derived from showing Freshman Civils how much they don’t know. Sammy has improved each shining hour since his stay, and every one will have pleasant recol- lections of that old smile. James Salmon Connell, B.S., Lexington Agricultural Society. “Better late than never.” While James has been with Little joe’s joyous jays but one year, he well knew that to graduate with that talented (?) bunch was an opportunity that even an Ag. could not overlook. Fie hasn’t been here long enough for us to learn many dark secrets to disclose. 4] A . . fM Samuel Newton Courtney, I3.M.F., Owensboro A. I. E. E.; A. S. M. E.; Dynamic Engineering Society; Daviess County Club; Class Grumbler (4). ‘‘Oh, were I seated as high as my ambition. I’d place this naked foot on necks of monarchs.” Owing to some misunderstanding, “Buck” became a Tau Beta Kake instead of a Pi. It may be said that the understanding was on bis part. He is a social lion and when rigged out in his dress suit is a dream long to be remembered. He was elected “class grumbler” not on account of bis grumbling ability but on account of his argumentative nature. In the future, we expect to see him as an able engineer, whether running a street car or managing Edison’s works. Albert Gallatin Craig, B.S. Agr., Ghent Agricultural Society; Patterson Literary Society; T. K. B. “I love the cows and chickens.” And from all one could judge from Albert's effort to fuss the frails, that is all he does love. “Daddy” is one of the Agricultural students who is very interested in his work, and doesn’t care about the bright lights. “Drop in when down at Ghent—that’s where the river is.” Minnie Tolliver Cramer, B.S., Lexington Home Economics Club; Student Assistant in House- hold Chemistry and Physiological Chemistry (3); Staff and Crown; Choral Society. “To Woman was given the peculiar grace To weep, to spin and feed the Human face.” “Sissie’s” time and thoughts have always been occupied with Johnnie and her beaux, however science seems to have entered into her life. We are just that proud of being able to protect her from T U.’s grasping ways before her B.S. was won. ‘Uncle Harlowe” has played an important part in Minnie’s college life and we want to know why she has become less interested in music. Looking into her future, we can picture Minnie making use of her domestic science in a practical way (?) while her co—worker uses more theory than practice in his work. Walter Bruce Croan, B.M.E., Shepherdsville Class President (1); Lamed Pe; T B K; Dynamic En- gineering Society; 1st Lieutenant Company 13; Assistant Football Manager (3); Manager (4); Manager Class Football Team; A. S. M. E.; A. I. E. E. “None but himself can be his parallel.” These achievements tell nothing of W. B.’s popularity among his classmates. Ever since he led his “sledge hammer” cohorts in the attack upon the freshman stronghold in the gym building, he has been a mainstay of the class of ’15. Whether upon the campus, in the classroom or on the athletic field, his advice is sought by many and his presence gives to his fellow students the assurance and comfort that a trusted mariner might give to a stranded ship on a stormy sea. 42 Grace Anderson Cruickshank, B.S., Lexington Secretary of Student Government Council (-1); Sec- retary of Philosophian Literary Society (2). “Let other other hands fashion The marvels of art; To thee fate has given A loftier part.” Did you ever have her ask you: “Say. you. why don’t you come to Sunday school2 We just have the grandest times.” If you haven’t, you cannot under- stand what it is that brings success to everything Grace attempts. She came to our rescue just in time with her supply of reconstructive methods and her work will live after her. Though the ardor of “Salvation Grace” often causes a smile, we predict for her a future filled with reward for her energy and earnestness and add she is “Grace enough for us.” Ernest Darnabv, B.S.Agr. Agricultural Society. “Life is real; life is earnest.” agricola. Ernest is an easy-going, soft-toned fellow, whose greatest pleasure lies in doing you a kindness. A touch of society, and good grades have satisfied his longings entirely. Though spoiled when a child, he will make a respectable citizen, and an up-to-date proprietor of a country store. William Terry Davis, B.S. Agr., Fulton Agricultural Society; Freshman Track Team; A Z. Fresh from Fulton High, with aspirations to become a distinguished farmer, Terry entered the Agriculture course. His favorite pastimes were track and five hundred and it was that same quiet, gentle zeal which put him in Alpha Zeta, that generally made him a win- ner. Terry’s weakness for femininity is not so notice- able but lie is strong on romance and conquest, and after finishing agriculture in less than four years, has gone home to conquer the hills of Western Kentucky. f——— John Stratton Deering, Law, Nicholasville Henry Clay Law Society; Prohibition Club; Democrat Club. 7 1 ... , ., • r Is to keep married folks apart. “Mister” Dearing. of Nicholasville, Kaintuckce, is sure some lawyer, if you don’t believe it ask him. Ilis ambition is to some dav become the Concert Meister at ■ 22 Sb H the Ada Meade Theatre, that is, of course, if lie is not appointed to the Supreme Court bench. Hearing is what is known as a ‘ mightv good scout,” and we prophesy that he will be heard from in the near future. 1 Helen Elizabeth Desha, A.B., Paris A r A; Staff ard Crown; President of Women's Pan- Hellenic Council (3); Y. W. C. A. “The sweetest girl in Paris.” jMr ' 1BHF : That is what the Senior boys think. H- S If it were possible to conceive of a dance without “Disshy” there half the fellows would check the bet and not go. What pals she and “Esther” have been, and Skw4 '•' 4 7 ’ Hb . -' what times they have had together! Look at our Senior ,l picture and you will find Helen out in frui t of the Jr y bunch, where she has been ever since she has been with us. i . “Ain’t we grand?” f ' Paul Errett Dixon, Law, Lexington. 41 A N; Henry Clay Law Society; Patterson Literary Society; Democratic Club; Class Football (2). . i -- j “He sees his duty, a dead shore thing And he goes for it. thar an’ then. An’ the world ai ’t a goin’ tew be tew hard— I BBEgag w On a man wliut does things—fer men.” Paul is one of the most conscientious workers in the law college, one of those sort to whom vou want to go to with your troubles; a d if you do go to him with any trouble he is sure to take it as a joke and tel you what a fool you are. “Dix” has one weaknes. Yep. The ladies, or rather THE lady, and the funny part about the whole ffair is that she is good looking. If she does get him. the only thing we can say is that she is getting lll p a real Prince. M 1 David Dallas Donohoo, A.R., Sardinia, Ohio HEnf' jk . ' ' Lamed Pe: Democratic (lull. j “A young man married is a young man marred.” V’ Bl % I 1 . D. 1). is another one of the many who have seen the error of their ways, and left the holi’ (?) 9 7 grounds of Transylvania, to graduate from a real Uni- versity, and with a real class. It would not take a Sherlock Burns to deduce that he is married. Knowing a good thing when he sees it, Donohoo will return to State next year for more knowledge of which he now has a goodly share. Columbus Gibson Downing, B.S.Agr., Lexington. 2 X; Lamp and Cross; Mystic Thirteen; Varsity Foot- ball (1-2-3-4); Pan-Ilellenic Council (3). “......that Nature might stand up, And say to all the world. ‘This is a man.’ ” “Gip” or “Ground Hog” as he is known to his foot- ball team mates, manages his farm, plays football and attends dances, yet he has found time to make a host of friends and “manages” to graduate. Gip’s friends all swear by him—and that includes practically his whole list of acquaintances. It seems queer but here is a country boy who really is taking “ag.” Aleene Edwards, A.B., Butler Sorores Amoris; Y. W. C. A. “Oh! were she mild as she is seeming so!” Together with her fondness for languages, Aleene joins an ardent desire to “star” in the millinery world. Have you seen that “creation” of gray which adorns her dainty’head without concealing the raven locks beneath? Lav all the blame on her! She has a special predilec- tion for night classes—even this year. Judging from the number of hours she spent at the observatory last year, she ought to rival Ilerschell in finding planets, but the worlds she desires to conquer do not lie so far out in space. Robert Lee .Ehrlich, B.C.E., Ludlow 2 X; Kentuckian Staff; T B K; Strollers; Transit Staff; Turtles; Triangle Club; B. S. C. E.: First Lieutenant (’13-14): Class Basket Ball (1); Mgr. Class Base- ball (1). “A friend is one who knows all about you and loves you just the same.” There are lots of Slims in the world, but just one prince like our “Slim.” Even Math. Profs., thru long acquaintance have come to like this long, trim, carefree, yet efficient Ken- tucky gentleman. Since “the eye of man is the prince of deadly weapons,” 3rou may know what a sharpshooter he is. “Long may he wave and never waver.” Theodore Frederick Eichhorn, B.M.E., Cyntliiana T B II; T B K; A.

No doubt he hated to leave the Kakes but he felt that it was lus dutv to become a Pi. Teddy is a great ladies’ man but it is not his fault—the girls just won’t let him alone.

Here’s to Betty—may she go back and teach the “Paint-lickers” to appreciate Chaucer and his contemporaries. Denny David Elliott, K.S. Agr., Humphrey Pres. Six-One Club; Treas. Agricultural Society; Treas. Republican Club; Class Football; Mountain Club; Dairy Team. “Down on the farm.” Folks surely have confidence in “Jack,” for they even trust him with their money! He can tell you why a cow has no upper teeth—and all those interesting things. Dispatches from Chicago state that “Jack” caused grief among the frails there when he returned to his old Kentucky home, after that dairy team trip. Charles B. Elston, B.S.Agr., Turner’s Station Vice President of Six-One Club (3); Freshman Track Team. “Yon Cassius lias a lean and hungry look.” His homefolks call him “Charlie” but the fellows call him “Slim!” To him belongs the honor of being the tallest man in the class. This evening shadow is also “way up” in the estimation of his classmates and even the faculty. Steadfastly “Slim,” a silent and staunch scout, shuns “skirts!” Warren Lyddane Eubank, Law, Lexington. A X; Se'cy. Henry Clay Law Society; Strollers; Mgr. Law Baseball Team (4); Democrat Club; Law Debating Team (4). “I love the ladies.” When Warren’s dad becomes State School Superin- tendent, maybe he will delegate his son (the Law Department’s joy and our pride) to inspect the school “inarms.” That would be much more interesting than hanging horse thieves—and Warren could doubtless make a success of it. But we hazard a guess that after he has left the school room, some poor dame’s heart will beat abnormally for a long time. Vide our co-eds!

Earl Lewis Fowler, Law, Waverly Henry Clay Law Society; Democrat Club; Pres. Patter- son Lit. Society (4). “Ponder well and know the right.” “E. L.” is the silent man of the class.

His deficiency in stature is more than made up in eray matter, one of his minor achieve- ments being that of instructor in Descriptive in his Senior year.

He is a great lover of the movies and of the Kentucky products—women and long-green. Martha Fox ITieatt, A.B., Lexington Y. W. C. A.; Choral Society (3). “Maiden! with the meek blue eyes.” In these days of multitudinous student activities, from athletics to dramatics and glee clubs, it must be a joyous thing to the professors to find a student who really puts scholastic work first. This Martha has done since she entered college, and therefore she will be graduated in the record time of three years, at the same time making “Monk’s curve” bulge at the “A” end. Annie Newell Hodges, A.B., Greensburg Philosophian Literary Society; Vice President of Y. W. C. A. (4); Y. W. C. A.

Next to teaching, she likes to read German and French. Have you ever noticed her coming from church with that good looking chap? That’s her brother, and Annie is as proud of him as of the number of times the Y. W. C. A. has showered honors upon her. Ludie Estella ITollowell, A.B., ’Princeton Pennyroyal Club; Y. W. C.

Her indifference to the opposite sex is only equaled by her love of tea. One of Professor Noe’s industrious students, she still is able to find an opportunity to read all the Roman authors and to fight every germ which Patterson Hall can produce—which is saying a great deal for her energy and “stick-to-it-iveness.” Mary Christine Hopkins, A.B., Louisville K A; Cast “The Virginian” (1); Secretary of Louis- ville Club (1); President of Women’s Pan-Hellenic (2): Vice President of Strollers (2); Cast “Lost Paradise (2) • Cast “Pygmalion and Galatea” (3); Class Prophet; Editorial Staff of Kentuckian (4); Philosophian Literary Society (3-4); Journalism Prize (4). “All the world’s a stage.” We promised Christine that we wouldn’t mention Paul —so we won’t. (It would never do for those guileless Freshmen who have been under her able instruction in Eng. 1 to find out about the “letter from home she reads just before class every morning.)

Next to playing a stiff game of “five-hundred,” he likes to wear red neckties and part his hair in the middle.

Mary Belle Johnson, A.B., Johnsonville Secrerary of Mountain Club (2) ; Vice President of Horace Mann Literary Society (4). “But she couldn’t lie if you paid her. And she’d starve before she stole.” “Mollie” is one of our mountain lassies-of whom the University may be proud. She is a good student and made “Monky” recognize her worth and give her “the cov- eted white card” after only two years’ work. For this reason her Senior year has been a full one; nevertheless she has found time to devote to her beloved mountains and for one semester served ably as Vice President of the club. She can “red up” as well as her successor,and as for practical Domestic Science she can fill a “poke” with as good candy as any “T. U.” student ever ate. James William Jones, B.S.Agr., Calvert City Agricultural Society; Biological Club. “A woman is only a woman, but a good cigar is a smoke.” “Song-bird” is one of the fellows that have been known to make the Ag. course in three years. He is some critic, and that part of the universe that has not been scathed by his vitriolic oratory is indeed either very- obscure or very fortunate. When his room was de- stroyed by fire, his only cane was consumed, so since that time he has eschewed all such dissipation and fri- volity. 52 Tau Beta Kake: Club. “There’s nothing so becomes a man, as modest stillne It has been said by some, that “Slivers” has wayward tendencies, but looking over the decreased gate receipts of a certain “Hall” on Main Street, we are ready to believe the contrary.

We believe this will stand him in good stead some time, and “Slivers” will be right at the top. James Otis Kelley, A.B., Whitesville Lamed Pe; President Union Literary Socjety; Daviess County Club; Treasurer Horace Mann Society; Penny- royal Club; President Democrat Club. “While poets rave and rant—and tear their hair.” “O.

As a politician he is always alert, and at every meeting he attends he makes at least one nomination—unless lie himself has been nominted— and that has often been the case, as a glance at the above record will show.

In mat- ters of business,, however, Frank excels, and at some future dale we expect to see him established as a con- sulting engineer on all matters pertaining to agricul- ture, from the raising of tobacco to the growing of a moustache. Albert John Kraemer, B.S.lnd.Chem., Louisville A X; Strollers; American Chemical Society; Louisville Club. “Morgen, Morgen, nur niclit heutel” Sprechen alle faule Leute. Dutch? Sure, why not? Huh? Even four years in the chemistry department have not robbed “Stoney” of his ready Irish wit and sunny na- ture. It was hoped that “Stoney” would graduate with- out being distracted by the frails; but with the coming of spring his fancy seems to be lightly turning to other thoughts than the structural formula of Dibenzenesuphe- nemethylenaphenylenediamine. 53 Newport K 2; Triangle Club; Class Football Team (1); Captain (2); Class Baseball (1, 2, 3); Class Basket Ball (1, 2, 3); Brooks Society. “Say you guy, let’s go to Math.” “Kid,” with good nature emanating from his shining countenance and his auburn-topped head, is one of the best known -engineers on the campus, having supported all the class teams.

(We can’t think of any other reason why any one would want to take it.) We suppose he will, like the rest of his fellow slaves in Chem.. go back. to_ the farm—“Sunnybrook.” We could say all kinds of nice things about Owen, but space does not permit.

And despite the fact that he has drilled mist of his life, he has the ability to make himself at home at a pink tea just as well as in a sham battle. Everybody likes him as well as the ladies. Lately he has been carrying on a series of lectures and will probably become a teacher of agriculture. Seth Baldwin Mellen, B.M.E., Knoxville, Tenn. K A; A. S. M. E.; A. I. E.

Seth managed to blow in just in time for the fall races of ’1.3 and everyone liked him at first sight. “Seth” is one of those men who is per- fectly at home in any company and makes an impres- sion that is lasting and pleasant.

He was out of school for some years, but returned when we were all Freshmen, and the class is mighty glad he did. Everyone has a high regard for Bill’s opinion, and his advice is sought after and respected. He “doesn’t care for Math any more.” You can place a bet on “Peachey” making good as a mining engineer. 58 59 «aar Espie C. Parker, Lexington T B II: Dynamic Engineering Society; A. S. M. E.; A. I.

In his Senior year he took a “Taul” interest in basket ball which led up to his studying the art of campustry and we trust he will be allowed full credit in this ten-o’clock study. Roger Mills Parrish, B.C.E., Scottsville Lamed Pe: Manager “Kentuckian”; Editor-in—Chief Transit (4); Secretary 1!. S. C. E. (3); Tau Beta Kake (4); Royal Order F. L. E. (3, 4); Class Representative- lransit (1). “Toil and be strong; by toil the flaccid nerves Grow firm and gain a more compacted tone.” Few men have toiled in the interest of their fellows as has “Little ’Un,” and his toils have borne good fruits. He has ability to apply himself to any task. Though quiet and not a confirmed “mixer,” his' friends are nu- merous, and they take a deep interest in his success. He is a “hustler” and will make as great a success of engineering as he has as Business Manager of the “Ken- tuckian”—and we couldn’t sav more than that in a week. Archie Xavier Pfeffer, B.S.Agr., Somerset A Z; Agricultural Society; Mountain Club. Archie Xavier Pfeffer (the middle name is perfectly harmless) arrived at the University many years ago and matriculated in the Agriculture course. ITe has never drilled nor taken gym, yet is in perfect health. He is a member of the Alpha Zeta fraternity and has worked at the Experiment Station in the interest of poor de- luded hogs that have cholera. Many a wrinkled nosed, twisted-tailed hog can thank its lucky stars that Arch is such a good friend. Pfeffer and Pittman are the “Gold Dust Twins” of the Experiment Station. Charles John Petrie, B.S.Agr., Fairview Mystic Circle; Varsity Football (4); Class Baseball (1, 2, 3); Captain Baseball (2); Class Football (1. 2): Pen- nyroyal Club; “12” Club. “Love’s a mighty lord.” Every one is mighty glad that “Chawles” did not go to the navy, but came to State. Charles is kept pretty busy with trips to Patt. Hall and with telling about the good old days at “Hoptown,” and all the football stars that ever were. Military note: Paris has about capitulated after a long siege. Norboubn Edward Philpot, B.M.E., Owensboro T B n; Dynamic Engineering Society; Treasurer (2), Vice President (3), President (4); A. 1. E. E.; A. S. M. E.; President Catholic Club; Daviess County Club. “He knew what’s what, and that’s as high As metaphysic wit can fly.” “Pinkie” is a “strawberry blonde” of an extreme type and there is a dark rumor to the effect that he spent many sleepless nights during his early University years in the “chem lab” trying to find an antidote for it sunnv disposition is known almost as well as his hirsute aggravation, and he will no doubt conquer many ot the hard problems of mechanical engineering by beguiling them with soft speeches. Walter Joseph Piggott, B.S.Agr., Irvington Earned Pe; Sophomore Football Team; Agricultural Society; Treasurer Louisville Club (2). “His tawny beard was th’ equal ; grace Both of his wisdom and his face.” Good old “Toe” has only one great weakness'and that is to stand at the front entrance of the main building between classes and be a Beau Brummel as ‘that s one I know” passes by. “Joe” played on a football team in Louisville before coming to State and to his athletic efforts may or may not be due his daily crop of side whiskers which, like Topsy, “just growed up and like the weeds in the backyard “just keep growing after they’re cut.” Nancy Fielding Pilcher, B.S., Lexington Secretary of Philosophian Literary Society (3). “Strew with violets dim the sod, Leave her Epitaph with God.” Like all Lexington belles, Nancy is tall and stately. She aspires to make the world better through hei ped agogical abilitv. Just hear her tell those Math. Piofs. all about the fourth dimension, and you will understand why she underscored Mathematics three times in the Teacher Agency card. With enticing positions awaiting hei ac- ceptance in Oregon and the far-distant island of Haiti we are prone to woi der what lias induced her to piefer to remain in her native village. Ernest Edgar Pittman Student Assistant Hog Cholera Serum Laboratory; Student Assistant Department of Agronomy; Agncul tural Society. ‘Envy the plowman’s health and strength. “Socrates” graduates without ever having drilled and does not know the difference between as skirnusheis march” and a snake dance. He attended gym twice in his Freshman year. “Soe” is an easy-going carefree, ishkabibblety sort of fellow and mighty well liked by all During his star at the University he has worked at the Experiment Station as tobacco expert and hog cholera doctor. Henry Louis Poole, B.S. Agr., Greenville Agricultural Society; Sec’y.-Treas. Muhlenburg Club (3). “Shady nooks and quiet Pools.” Henry is a nice quiet Ag who wants to learn all he does not know about farming. Of course, since he is a Senior this isn't so very much. Who the girl is, no one knows, but can’t always tell about the quiet devils, who alway know lots more than they tell. Poole doesn’t shoot pool. Roy Dee Puckett, B.M.E., Ilodgensville A. S. M. E.; A. I. E. E.; Dynamic Engineering Soci- ety; Pennyroyal Club; Democratic Club; Efficiency En- gineer. “And, when a lady’s in the case. You know, all other tilings give place.” This chap was raised down near Lincoln’s old home and perhaps was strengthened in his inspiration by what his ancient neighbor was able to accomplish. He has a cosmopolitan head and as much ambition as any of Ken- tucky’s sons; these things with his ability as an engineer will some day add a link to the chain which we call progress. As the general trend of man’s nature turns to thoughts of love, the lad‘s inclination has followed the natural channel. Charles Stephenson Rainey, B.M.E., Mount Sterling A. S. M. E.; A. I. E. E.; Dynamic Engineering Society. “I cannot but remember such tilings were, That were most precious to me.” Charles might have gotten higher grades during the Senior year if it hadn’t been for a bad case of “girls,” but, as it was, his grades were much above the aver- age. He would stud}'—both about books and about girls, but mostly about girls. He raved about new ones every day and besides the daily new' one, he breathed, talked and whistled “Booful Baby” all the time. J. Owen Reynolds, Law, Lexington AX; A A 2; Humorist “Idea” Staff (2-3); Y. M. C. A. Cabinet (4); Assistant Editor “Idea” (3-4); Class Poet (4); Henry Clay Law Society; Choral Society; Democrat Club; Pennyroyal Club. “Law take thy victim.” Better watch out for J. Owen—he is apt to hand you a joke when you are least expecLing it. lie is the most popular man in the class, well versed in law, and a “big brother” to all the girls. Some day when be is a lawyer and all his friends take their troubles to him, as they do now-, he may get past that “big brother” stage. Wayland Rhoads, B.S.Agr., Lexington President Student Government Organization; A Z; Agricultural Society; Biological Society; Six-One Club; Democratic Club; Fat Stock Team. “Honkl Iionk!” With such a name, Wayland would naturally be a far- mer. “Shorty” is a “fast’’ youngster—‘when he is pump- ing that old bicycle of his. He is a long hoy literally, laterally; has a long head and a long line of talk and a long list of friends—particularly in the Home Econom- ics Club. Phil E. Richards, B.S.Agr., Morganfield A Z; Mystic Circle; Agricultural Society; Kentucky Dairy Team (3); Vice President Agricultural Society (3). “So unacquainted with all arts of sin.” Just to show us what he could do if he tried, Phil has made the Agricultural course up here in three years, and won the honors in Alpha Zeta besides. All this has kept him so busy that you probably have not seen him on the campus much, but people away from here know him all right, for he represented the University on the Dairy Team on its trips to the big contests. He s all to the good, is Phil; and we feel sure that he will make a big hit “down on the farm.” Esther Lee Rider, A. B , Rowletts Y W C. A.; Philosophi an Literary Society; Secre- tary'of Horace Mann Literary Society (4); President of Library Club (4); Assistant Librarian (4). “In books a prodigal, they say, A living encyclopedia!” The masses of Esther’s hair are—er well a trifle more than blond, which in turn might indicate that the above has a temper. However this is mere supposition Esther is well liked by everybody except the fussers in the Library, and you know “Silence is the law- of the Li brary,” as well as of Patt. Hall corridors Her bright hair'is but a faint shadow of the “brightness of her intellect. German, Logic, anything is simplicity itself for her, and she “kills ’em out” every tune without ever opening her book. She is even a ‘ shark at Ches. Daniel T. Roberts, B.S., West Point Glee Club (1), (2), (3); Secretary of Union Literary Society. “I’ll not budge an inch!” Dan believes in evolution! Yes, sir! And although he hasn’t convinced Dr. Tigert of all his views yet, lie is not at all discouraged, and continues to orate at length upon the merits of zoology and other deep sub- jects But to fully appreciate his charms, you ought to hear him sing—and even we who hear him argue m class can forgive him when we hear him warble some sweet little ditty about spring or some other senti- mental subject. What will the Union Literary Society do for music when Dan is gone? 63 ■ h —y -,;s ! George Clark Rogers, Lexington f A 0; T B II; Lamp and Cross; Choral Society; Lieu- tenant (3); Idea Staff (4); Business Staff “Kentuckian”; President Kentucky Mining Society (3) ; Pick and Shovel. “His love sincere, his thoughts immaculate.” Who would think, to see Clark’s innocent face, that he is such a man of the world, as the above record will attest? Not only is he a good student, mixes in all student activities, but is THERE with the frails. They like to hear him call them “Deah,” in that lazy Southern speech of his—but his speech is the only thing about Clark that is lazv. Charles Smith Rollings, B.C.E., La Center T B IT; Associate Editor Transit; Treasurer B. S. C. E. “He was wonL to speak plain and to the point like an honest man.” You never bear Pitt say much but he knows it just the same and to appreciate him you must know him well. He is a grind by ro means but is a good student and has more practical experience engineering than any other man in the department. The girls never appealed to Pitt here but every day brings him a neat letter from the vine—clad hills of Carlisle County. Abraham J. Roth, B.S. Agr., Louisville Varsity Track (1) (2) (3) and (4); Captain Track Team (4): Varsity Football (2) (3) and (4); Man- ager Varsity Basket Ball Team (4); Agriculture So- ciety; Louisville Club; “K” Association; State Record 100 and 220 yards. “The spirit of the time shall teach me speed.” It has been a keen pleasure to see Abe receive one of “Turkey’s” long passes and race across the goal line, and we regret that he can fight on “Old State’s” grid, no more. Ilis prowess on the track, too, is of unusual character and it lias aroused pleasant sensa- tions when Abe dashed under the “tape” with a com- fortable lead on the next man. It will be a fast hog that can keep Abie from head- ing him off, when he gets down on the old farm. Bernard W. Roth, B.S. Agr., Louisville Varsity Track (2, .3); Business Mgr. Strollers (4); Apple Judging Team (4); Associate Editor “Idea”; Ag. Society; Louisville Club; Student Assistant in Physical Ed. and Horticulture (4). .V very versatile man, is Ben, as the above list will show. Like all of the Roth tribe, Ben can sprint like a rabbit. And he can judge an apple with the best of them! If we could peer into the future, as Ben peers through those spectacles, we would predict a very suc- cessful career, as an agriculturist, for him, in Louis- ville. Marguerite Elizabeth Schweers, A.B., Frankfort “Kentuckian” Staff; Catholic Club; President Horace Mann Literary Society (4); Secy. Philosophian Liter- ary Society (4). “Black are her eyes as the berries that grow on the thorn by the wayside; Black, yet how softly they glow beneath the brown shade of her tresses.” “Brown” in the above is poetic license. Marguerite is one of the girls of whom the class is so justly proud. Most any afternoon you can find her in the Libe. reading the classics (?). But when Spring- time comes it will be warm enough to stay outside. Monk will stop playing with the fossils to tell you about what lovely grades she has. Card shark? Watch her play the “A. C. e.” Herschel Scott, B.S.Agr., Madisonville A Z; Lamp and Cross; Varsity Football (2-3-4); Var- sity Football Captain (3); Varsity Basket Ball (2-3-1) ; Treasurer Sophomore Class; Sergeant Major Battalion; President “K” Association; Student Member Athletic Committee. “Life is but a game at football,” so wrote the other famous Scott. It might be more interesting to tell of “Scptty’s” “experiences” in California last winter than to sing of his athletic fame—as every one knows of it. But lier- schel has served the class and school so well that we will be more kind than lie is to lus opponents on the gridiron. Very few’re like Scotty! Grover Cleveland Settles, B.S.Agr., Lexington Agricultural Society; Literary Society. “Like Socrates and Plato I think deeply.” If you would really get an insight into the depths of G C.'s knowledge, stop some time and hear mm expound most profoundly on any topic you■ eest. He does not always agree with our dear friends, the Profs, but strangely enough he never seems to suffer from it. At the outset he decided that this com pany is too slow for him, so he is doing the four laps in three. G. C. is very versatile, and was men connected once with “bookkeeping and racing. Raymond Anthony Schoberth, Law, Versailles Kappa Sigma; Henry Clay Law Society. “I have a heart with room for every joy.” Ravmond is a conscientious lad. With him, the Last Clear Chance is the Versailles interurban. It gives him an excuse to leave early and arrive ate. His Masoning has depth and logic You couldn’t imagine a more thorough student of the Code and Statutes. (We’ll catch that last car home after that.) 65 Clarence Barbour Shoemaker. B.S. Industrial Chemistry, Falmouth Secty.-Treas. Chemists ’14 Club; American Chem- ical Society. “The bur that sticks travels far.” When it comes to sticking to _ a tiling from a friend to a complex problem in chemical analysis, a bur. a bottle of glue or lint off a towel have nothing on “Gourdie.” Those who are fortunate enough to enter the charmed circle of his friendship hold that “he is a Prince.” When school days are over we do not know whether he will be fortunate enough to own a “(Brad)Ford” or not—but we have our suspicions. George Rowe Smith, Law, Central City Heavyweight Boxing Championship ’12; President Freshman Class; Varsity Track (1);. Varsity Football (-1); Union Literary Society; Democratic Club; Y. M. C. A. Cabinet; Prohibition Club. “If well thou hast begun, go on fore-right; It is the end that crowns us, not the fight.” George R. began life in the “Prep” and has had many a delightful day since he could first call himself a Freshman. He admits that he is differently con- stituted from the rest since no one can hurt him. He lias measured arms with some sturdy_ fighters_ but still holds his championship in boxing. His crowning glory came when he received his letter in football after many years of faithful toil. Ernest Deming Snodgrass, B.M.E., Eminence Class Baseball (2); A. S. M. E.; A. I. E. E.; Dy- namic Engineering Society. “He that is wise in books alone, Knowcth not the pleasures of life.” “Snoddy” is a true sportsman and believes in all “that makes Kentucky famous.” He is very fond of his voice and takes occasion to learn all the latest songs. His favorite stunt is “cutting” classes. Just call him “Dodo” and watch him smile. He is often seen in the company of “Mutt” and “Nellie” but outside of that he is a fine fellow. Elsie Margaret Speck. B.S., Paducah K A; Honor System Council (1); Vice President of Sophomore Class; President of Philosophian Literary So- ciety (2); Secretary Agricultural Society (3); Vice Pres- ident Y. W. C. A. (4); President Home Economics Club (:{); Staff and Crown; Representative Women’s Pan- Hellenic ( 4) ; Student Assistant in Home Economics. “Blue were her eyes as the fairy flax. Her cheeks like the dawn of the day.” “SYSTEM” is Elsie’s watchword, motto and text; everything she does, she does well. From mixing pies and 'beans in “The Department” (as designated by all loyal Home Economics Students) to presiding over litcrary societies and other clubs, she uses system and executive ability. But her weak point is the Germans— if you desire her friendship and respect, don’t even intimate that the Kaiser isn’t all that he claims to be (and that’s enough for even the most loyal supporter)! Claude Baker Taylor, B.S.Agr., Augusta B 0 II; Mystic Circle; Agricultural Society; Dairy Team (4). “The tailor, the baker, The dance program maker.” Thinking that Lexington was a good Agricultural vil- lage Claude came here in pursuit of knowledge and a few other things. He has been real busy and although conquered by “Alexander-tlie-Great,” his stay among us has been mutually profitable and pleasant. Robert Brooks Taylor. B.S., Industrial Chemistry Lexington A X; Pres. Junior Ind. Cliem. Society (1-2); Class Basket Ball (1)'; American Chem. Society; “Kentuckian” Staff; Democratic Club. “Excuse my dust.” “R. B.’s” favorite drink is gasoline, his favorite lit- erature is auto catalogues, his favorite flower the Buick and his favorite pastime is giving close shaves to milk- men on the Harrodsburg Road. As a side issue, Brooks completes the Chemistry course in three years besides being an 80-horsepower, ball-bearing, puncture-proof good fellow. His avowal to return to school for his Master’s, next year is causing widespread grief and consternation among the frequenters of his pike. Reuben Thornton Taylor, B.M.E., Frankfort Dynamic Engineering Society; Treas. A. S. M. E.; A. I. E. E. “A fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent company.” “R. T.” is a “Frankforter” and by no means the “wurst” they ever let out, as everyone about the Uni- versity can say, since Reuben came to town. Reuben is loyal to that home town, and that may account for the fact that the fair co-eds do not have to hear so much of that droll wit, as do his long-suffering brothers at Mech. Hall. Clyde P. Taylor, A.B., Whitesville Editor—in—Chief Idea; President of Union Literary Society; Manager Baseball Team (4); K. I. D. A.; K. T. O. A.; Class Football (1) and (2); History Club; “Kentuckian” Staff. “He loved his kind, but sought the love of few, And valued old opinions more than new.” We are truly impressed with his knowledge and force, and wonder that he could be so quiet withal. He too began under the tutelage of “Walter K.” and realizes what it means to be acquitted from the two departments of Old State, within the allotted time. It has been a true pleasure to read his editorials, and to see him preside with august mien at meetings of “The Union.” Ollie Tames would do well to “watch his steps” when “Cutie” starts to the Senate! William Preston Tuttle, B.S.Agr., Somerset A T 0; A Z; Lamp and Cross; Mystic 13; Varsity Foot- ball (1-2-3—1); Varsity Basket Ball (1-2-3-4); Varsity Baseball (3-4); Basket Ball Captain (3); Captain Class Baseball (1); President of Sophomore Class; Apple Team (4) ; Athletic Committee. “What weapons has the lion but himself?” Since all the honors possible in the undergraduate world have been his, “Squirrelly’s” achievement list has about taken all the space available. The class of '15 will never tell the under grads, to come of the thrilling games of old but what the name of Tuttle will be men- tioned. He is one of the men whose fellowship at col- lege will be treasured for all time. Henry O. Wagner, B.M.E., Mayfield A. I. E. E.; A. S. M. E.; Dynamic Engineering So- ciety; Pennyroyal Club. “Oh, but give me worship and quietness, I like it better than a dangerous honor.” “Hans” Wagner, named after the great and only “Hans” but possessing none of the characteristics of the peerless hurler, is a likeable chap who likes to punc- tuate his sentences with the stereotyped phrase, “Saw Mary today,” but even with this handicap “Ilans” man- ages' to pass away many hours far away from the mad- dening noise of the school whistle and occasionally finds time to don his “Society Rigging” and take a jitney bus to Sayre, where he allies himself with the Suffragettes— for the time being. James Rufus Watkins, B.C.E., Central City T B II; Lamed Pe; Triangle Club; Pennyroyal Club; Exchange Editor of Transit; Brooks Engineering Society. “Speak of me as I am; nothing extenuate Nor set down ought in malice.” “Azzie” was afraid that he would not get a good write-up, so we will do the best we can under the circumstances. Watkins is the best engineer in the University, as evinced by his making Tau Beta Pi; his habits are so exemplary that even Dean Melcher could not scruple at them; he counts his friends by the legion, and unless all signs fail will make a resounding name for himself. How’s that? Edford Milton Walter, B.M.E., Blair A. S. M. E.; A. I. E. E.; Dynamic Engineering So- ciety. “A merrier man Within the limit of becoming mirth, I never spent an hour’s talk withal.” “Mutt” is one of the chief fun-spillmongers of the Senior Mechanical bunch. His career here has been “many and varied” even to the extent of holding con- ferences with the agricultural ring leaders in trying to enlarge his fund of information about cattle. No one knows where, he’ll go after his diploma is served “table d’hote” but it is thought that he and George Campbell will be found together. 68 James Wrigh.t Wesson, A.B., Wingo Class Representative (3); Union Literary Society; Horace Mann Literary Society; Agricultural Society; Student Self-Government Committee (2); Winner of Bennett Essay Prize. “If music be the food of Love, play on.” ’Tis whispered by the balmy breeze that there is many a wounded heart lying along the path where Wes has passed, vet he goes along seeming unconcerned, pitying the rest' of us. He is some orator, wherefore he was elected class orator in his Junior year. But that is not the only reason why he is .well known—he owns the only ’phone in the Old Dorm, and has made some record as a student. Bessie White, A.B., Louisville Sorores Amoris; Louisville Club; Y. W. C. A.; Stroll- ers; Secv. Tennis Club (2); Staff and Crown; Secy. Senior Class; Business Staff “Kentuckian”; Secy. Li- brary Club (4); Student Assistant Gymnasium. “Vessels large may venture more, But little boats should keep near the shore. Bessie as she is known to most everybody, is an all ’round high light in the University. Not only has she distinuished herself in athletics, but also in dramatics and as a terpsichorean artist. Furthermore, Bessie is one of the best liked girls in the class. She and Nig and Ella Mae have certainly been pals during their stay here, and it is safe to assume that commencement week will live long in all their memories. John Wilbur Worthington, B.S.Agr., Owensboro Middle Weight Boxing Champion, ’12; Fat Stock Judging Team, '15; President of Agricultural Society, To. “All is vanity and a striving after wind.” “Bunny” has been ideally (?) situated for three years —next door to Patt Hall. Probably that’s the reason lie never calls there. He is a good Ag. student, and likes his little joke. No gold-brick artists need apply at “Bunny’s” door when he buys that farm. We must not forget to mention his “singing.” Natalie Wood, A.B., Maysville A S A; Varsity Basket Ball (1-2-3 4); Vice President of Phisosophian (3); Cast “College Widow” (3); Staff and Crown; Strollers; Y. W. C. A. Cabinet (3). “As merry as the day is long.” “You can’t dislike me, ’cause I won’t let you.” Nat, sometimes known as the “Clown’ to a chosen few, comes to us from Maysville. Being a good student and enthu- siastic in college activities, Nat is known to everyone on the campus. Who does not remember her as blora in the “College Widow”? Here she comes now. Notice how awfully quiet she is. “Ain’t that jes grand? The Dean has said that I can have a date with Bill any time I want to. Haven’t seen anything of Bill, have you? Oh, sav, did you see what the paper said about ?; ‘Miss Wood starred,’ the only one mentioned, too; 69 Alfred Combs Young, B.S., Elic Lamed Pe; President of Biological Club (4); Demo- cratic Club; Union Literary Society; Agricultural So- ciety; Mountain Club; Student Assistant in Botany. “He’d rather lose his dinner than his jest.” “A. C.,” thinking that a course in Agriculture would be more interesting than feeding cows, came to K. S. U. to-see if there was anything about a farm of which he was ignorant. He has proved himself an efficient time-killer, therefore well fitted to become a farmer. He intends to go back to the cows and chickens when the University “reaches” him his diploma;—that is, if assisting in Botany hasn’t too strong an attraction for him. Logan Bentley Caywood, B.M.E., TTanly Class Baseball (3); T B K; A. S. M. E.; A. I. E. E.; Dynamic Engineering Society. “Rhetoric and Mathematics, Calculus and Hydrostatics.” If you want a math problem solved, let “Button” do it. Unless it’s a very long one he’ll do it in his head. “Katie” does everything with a Hash hut he gets re- sults just the same. He made a splendid showing with the nine when a Soph, but the call of Steam Lab., etc., was too great for him to resist, and thus the career of a youthful baseball star was nipped in the bud. A fine pal, is Cady. Louis Joseph Emmery, Law, Wheeling, W. Va. A X; Democratic Club; Henry Clay Society; Secretary Junior Class; Catholic Club. “What it takes to make a classy Jane. She’s got it! Believe me!” Hearing of the wondrous beauty of the Kentucky Belles, as well as the many other things for which this state is noted, “Joe” traveled all the way from Ver-gin-iah to see for himself the truth or falsity of the above. We cannot tell whether or not he is satis- fied with what he found, but one thing is certain, and that is that he found a University here, and as he says, “What it takes to make SOME law school—U. K. cer- tainly has got it!” Merritt McCauley Hughes. B.M.E., Versailles Tan Beta Kake; A. I. E. E.; A. S. M. E.; Dynamic Engineering Society. “What care I when I can lie and rest; Kill time, and take life at its very best.” “Babe” is the holder of the unapproached record of owning more nicknames and getting by, uninjured, with more of that “down home” stuff than any other member of the class. Carrying appellations, however, did not burden him so much but that he could put in profitable time on his course with the result that he is entering into his life’s work with a good knowledge of engineer- ing, and a host of friends. 70 mm Wm M I A 0; T B K; Class Basket Ball (1); Glee Club Cl); Pick and Shovel: Vice President Mining Society (2). “A merry heart docth good like a medicine.” “Hank” has a merry heart, as any one who knows him will tell you. Flank has the Noel habit of hanging around Sayre'and one of his greatest achievements was to beat his brother Bill out of his girl. He also changed from mechanical to work with this brother Bill and later dropped out of school one term in order to graduate with him. Hank has had some good practical experi- ence and will make good in his chosen profession. Arthur E. Wegert, B.S., Louisville Choral Club; Louisville Club; President Horace Mann; Union Literary Society; Winner of Barker Prize for ex- temporaneous Speaking. He is possessed with that innate German common sense which is so fertile to reason and the like. Neither Logic nor any of the perplexing standards of mental development have dilemmas too impervious for his con- sideration. When he took one of his frequent departures, in quest of adventure, we were afraid he would not re- turn. but the tie that binds proved too strong, so the prodigal came back to the old hearthstone. Harry Croft Williams, Law, Auburn 1 A A; Henry Clay Law Society. “Patterson Hall! Where is it? What do they teach there? When a lawyer goes in for real-estate—hold tight.” “Little Willie,” one of the few youths whose spring- time fancies have never carried him into the unfathom- able mysteries of Patt Hall. No, he is not immune; on the other hand he is a “very much ladies man; however, the University-Lunch-Stand-Girls do not hold out any attraction for him. “Willie” says that lie does not intend to practice law after graduating, but that lie will go into the real-estate business “Out West. William Patrick Crawley, Louisville A. I. E. E.; A. S. M. E.; Faraday Engineering So- ciety; Louisville Club; T B K; Democratic Club. “Fain would I climb, but that I fear to fall.” Ever since he had his name put on the list of “those present” at State, “Pat” has had a peculiar penchant for tall, out-in-town blondes and his stay here has been sufficiently long for him to get acquainted with all of them. After graduation he expects to locate in a larger city, where there are more of them. But in spite of this drawback, “Pat” will no doubt carry on his engi- neering work as successfully as he has in school. William Perry Drake, Law, Bowling Green Henry Clay Law Society. “Ye bards may sing of tassled corn And prate of rock and rill— But I,” “Duck” is one of those sort of fellows who never keep you guessing, you can always tell just what sort of an answer to expect to any question put to him. His favorite in the faculty, he says, is Judge Chalkley, because he and the Judge get on so well together. “Duck” has already passed the bar examination and is ready for anything, including another examination in Constitutional Law. John McGarvey Ligon, B.S. Agt., Barbourville Lamed Pe; Agricultural Society. “Satisfaction, or your money back.” You may walk into Graddy and Ryan’s almost any time and see John’s smiling face that says “I know you have got some money. So just lay your pile out on the counter, for you can’t get away with it.” lie is some business man, just like those people associated in ancient history with the Gentiles, and he knows it. Friendship for John draws the fellows in, and if that could draw his crops from the earth he would be a famous farmer. Thomas Hart Robinson, A.B., Law, Winchester 2 N; ‘I A A. “I’m free, male, white, and twenty-one.” Robinson is a member of the Benedicts in the Uni- versity, but with it all he is an all ’round good fellow, paradoxical as it may seem. He has a Bachelor’s degree from our ancient rival, Central University, and if they are all like him over there, they are not such a bad lot after all. Taking him all in all, we will be dis- appointed if we do not have an opportunity to vote for him for State Senator. Arbor Day Arbor Day OLLO WING the custom established by long tradition, the Senior Class each year assembles and with appropriate ceremonies, plants a tree with which to commemorate its memory. Beneath these leafy boughs, the generations of College fussers to come, may sit among the waving Blue Grass and as the mocking birds, with which the region abounds, sing their happy lays, while away many happy and never-to-be-forgotten hours. And while the class will not be here to know of the activity and life of the old place, nevertheless in the slender sapling that we plant on this day with such tender care, we leave a representative that will grow and wax strong with passing time, and that will be a guardian of our interests, and a token of our interest. On the morning of this day, when Kentucky’s fair skies smile upon the landscape, the entire student body gathers, and two by twro, the classes in their order, parade around the grounds to the site. Upon this day our futures are revealed (?) to us by the class prophetess, the reliability of whose forecasts the years will reveal. A review of the proph- ecy that will be read this year, is incorporated in this book. Upon this day, the oratory, for which our State and University is so justly famous, is very much in evidence. At the conclusion of these exercises, each member of the class, with the spade handed down to us by former classes, casts a spadeful of earth upon the roots of embyro sentinel of the grounds. To the Junior representative, the spade is presented by the class orator.

E. Berkshire Commencement Address Conferring of Degrees and Delivering of Diplomas, by President H. S. Barker SENIOR BALL $CUL PTVK IflG by The Prophecy of the Class of 1915 WAS the spring of 2015, Spring, that is, on Earth. I had grown ery tired of playing with the new “angels,” and times in Paradise ad been so uneventful during the last twenty-five years. True, many K. S. U. habitues had joined the ranks of the immortal, but unfortun- ately, most of them had gone to a clime less balmy, and a place more inter- esting! Had I not been a bona fide angel with halo, harp, wings, and regula- tion “driven snow” drapery, I would have been tempted to wish I was in the crowd below -—- or, at least, on the good, old, bad, old earth once more! But instead of following the inclination of my wicked nature, which pointed to the dazzling footlights and naughtily whispered, “This is the life!” I had eked out a meager existence teaching the Freshmen of Kentucky State University the difference between narration and exposition, and that one does not spell “professor” with two “fs.” And so here I was, this spring day that, ST. FRANK KENNEDY, just returning from blessing the Y. M. C. A.’s of all state institutions, told me it was so lovely on earth. I gathered up my robes, and, giving my harp to R. E. L. MURPHY, former “attorney-at-law, Fayette County bar,” who had now a place in the Garden as the founder of the Prohibition Association at “State,” to polish up for me, after an argument over the becomingness of his green robe, I determined to pay a visit to the little globe, and see what mortals had to say on the demise of the old guard of State, who had quitted the ranks in 1915. Just before reaching one of the most interesting looking cemeteries, I had discerned on the smoke-filled earth, I met my friend of the brilliant hair, KENNETH DORIS, who had made such pithy paragraphs on earth, that one day, an equally bright-headed human being had shot him in cold blood for some — oh, faintly suggestive — remark about his character! Friend Dons informed me that His Majesty of the Everlasting Furnace had allowed him to come up to earth for a “breath of air,” as a reward for making His Majesty laugh for the first time in fifty-seven years! Being interested in my errand, he said he would accompany me, and we flew on down. Many, many former “mechanicals of 1915 were in the red company that dwelt in warmth. In this very cemetery, found we mouldering stones of BARTH and “TINY COOKE, SNODGRASS and J. E. BOLLING — Old “Jack of All Trades, who had finally worn himself to death, telling people how dreadfully busy he was! On H. E. BARTH’S modest stone was carved succinctly, under an exquisitely sculptured pipe: “BARTH, a man with his nose in everything. Guide Doris told me that, as do all who have a propensity for attending to everyone’s business but their own, Mechanic Barth had lived to a ripe old age, but in the end, inquisitiveness was “the death of him! Five beautifully designed cards surmounted one pretentious tomb. On each card was one spot in bas relief — a heart, a club, a spade and two diamonds! Below, there crumbled into ruin the lines: “Snodgrass got In a poker game And held five aces — We add his name! But upon investigation we found that this tombstone had been rejected because the sculptor had gotten the name of Snodgrass on it instead of Craig, the Ag. A huge pair of shoes next attracted my attention. Could it be? No? Yes? There in classic simplicity stood a pair of size 1 3’s, with the beautiful eulogy below: “Cooke, he died with his shoes on! By the side of J. E. BOLLING’S grave was the mound under which J. T. GELDER had peacefully slumbered until “called above. He, too, had been a “busy man, and had worked himself to death, trying to make a semblance of an army out of a succession of hopeless K. S. U. battalions! It grieved me greatly to see that MINOTT BROOKE S death, de- scribed on his vault, had resulted from his trying to make peace between two combatants, one of whom gave him a “knock out blow, which killed him, his constitution having previously been greatly weakened by his being everlasting and eternally called upon to give so much advice! And I recalled with a guilty start, that just before I had come down to earth, I had asked him. 79 enjoying the “peace he ne’er had known before,” to advise me as to the most becoming angle of my halo! BUCK COURTNEY, I learned, had not long survived, for the world had no place for a grouch, and had soon asked him to pass in his chips! For seventy-five years, now, his only legitimate complaint had been a just one — the intensity of the climate! R. D. HAWKINS, when Gabriel summoned him, had according to his custom, been a year late, and so was now delicately “browning instead of enjoying the Elysian Fields! A large monument of books formed a notable feature of this grave-yard, and peering closer at the engraving, I read: —“Batsel”— “A studious lad, A good one, too, But why he died, He never knew!” A sad fate had been “TANK” EMMERT’S. A lonely grave in the corner was surmounted by a bottle, and the stone said: “He had to have His daily beer. But he drank too much, And so he is here!” Ah, me! And well-a-day! There was yet another monument patterned from glass-ware, for under a marble flask and test tube: “TAYLOR, the chemist. Poisoned by acid, Now, lay here, So calm and placid.” At this juncture my companion informed me that this cemetery was the last of the old-fashioned grave-yards. Being decidedly more “of the earth, earthy,” than I, he had much earthly news to impart. Human beings, had grown so ultra-scientific, he explained, that now the bodies of the dead were placed in classified graves. “What type of cemetery would you like to visit first?” he asked. “Take me, oh, most courteous Vergil, second,” I replied, “to the graves of the NOISY ON EARTH, to the last human resting-place of those who have talked themselves to death!” Thither we floated. Yes, yes, there were “LEO J.” and WARREN L. EUBANK, the dashing actorine, and the Beau Brummel of 191 5’s Senior Law College. No more could Warren delight the populace with his purple and yellow ties, no more could he stroke back his Paderewski mane and make eyes at a susceptible “demazel.” They had been condemned to a noiseless and womanless department in purgatory. “Really, my dear? Only fancy!” Here also lay J. T. GOOCH, who had “orated” himself to death in the United States Senate, and GEORGE R. SMITH, who had died with the words on his lips: “Boys, I’m DEMOCRATIC! Flitting lightly over the graves of the Dancers, I encountered Tango Tem- ples, Maxixe Mounds, and Hesitation Headstones erected over many erstwhile “lightly trippers.” Under these inscriptions were “CHINK” CLORE, “JAKIE” BYERS, “SLIVERS” KARRICK, “ESSIE” BAILEY and “DISHY” DESHA. They had been condemned to sit, bound with eternal inertia, while a divinely inspiring saxophone poured out, V ou wore a tulip, and “Tipperary ; and dreamily rippled alternately, The Sextette from Lu- cia' and “’Twas in September ” From these graves, dug by frivolity, I implored my Vergil to show me those whose inmates had died from real work. Occupying the center in this CEME1 ER l OF 1 OILERS was the magnificent monument of OWEN LEE. He had given State an Annual “The Kentuckian,” but math and too much lab were more than he could stand, so cheerfully smiling, he had died with a sprig of honeysuckle in his hand, while heavenly strains: “ ‘Rebecca of Sunnybrool? Farm” were wafted to his ears, and a pair of blue eyes looked tearfully into his! In the GRAVE-YARD OF WORKERS were erected many stones to the Girls of the Home Economics Department of 1915. JESSIE ACK- ER’S inscription told how she had worn away trying to teach the shooting young idea to make “delicious cake” with a tablespoonful of egg and one of flour; LOIS BARTLETT’S, engraved elaborately with a spool of thread, and scissors, informed the passerby that the coat suit a certain Miss Buckman compelled her to make, to be graduated, had been her “finish”; and MARY BURRIER had faded away, gasping with her dying breath, to the authorities of her “home town” how all the Home Economics Departments of all the schools in the country should be managed. ELIZABETH MOORE had “Ben” wiser, and had done her econo- mizing in a practical way, figuring out for herself, the ages-old bromide that “two can live cheaper than one!” Buried also with the workers were MARGUERITE SCHWEERS, who had made it her life-work to convince “Zemmie” that Frankfort is nol what it seems; and JOHN McDONALD, who had tried so hard to looJ? the part of a lecturer on his one, first and only tour, that he had “jest bu’sted. Occupying a noticeable six feet or so in this plot, was a becomingly modest pillar, on which yellowing letters, spelling “ESTHER RIDER’ stood out. After taking all the library and journalism degrees in the country, Esther had peacefully died — there was really nothing else left for her to do! “TAPE” ALLISON also was to be placed in this category, although his death was, to be more accurate, caused more by “iporrp” over'getting his credits, than by real wording for them. RAY LAVERCOMBE had met his death in working (?) too hard for the Math. Department, and HANK NOEL, after years of insanity, had passed away muttering, “J. Mort, you and Pops Downing and Josh Rees are getting very poor in calculus. If you can’t do better, get out. Dr. Tuttle, why don’t you attend quantitative more? Dean Norwood, I called you into my office today to tell you that I am not pleased at all with your attitude toward your work. Try to do better — I would fire you out, but it is so hard to get men into this department that I really can’t afford to lose anyone!” Poor Bill! His was a sad, sad fate! By his side lay “PITT” ROLLINGS, whose brain burst finally, because “he knew more engineering than any of his instructors or employers.” Pitt, I was sad to learn, was responsible for the death of C. W. LAY, who entirely by accident met “Pitt” one dark night! Alack! “Thereby hangs a tale” that’s best untold. W. H. NOEL had won a place in the workers’ acre by diligence in bringing into bloom, eventually, the “something that, for a long time, had trem- bled on his lip!” CLARK ROGERS had worked himself to death accommodating every- 82 Nisi body, and W. F. HANLEY had devoted a long and useful life to engineer- ing, and learning to manage a “man’s size pipe.” OWEN REYNOLDS and CLYDE TAYLOR, both literary lights in their day, had merited a resting place here. Not last in the crowd of those who had toiled were JAMES PARK, famous baseball player till his death at 85; B. L. NISBET, too sensitive to live; BESSIE WHITE, who had finally acquired a gym school of her own; and JEANETTE BELL, who popular “hereafter,” as in college, had many to carry her harp and polish her halo! In the Section of Players (card, pool, etc.), we found PAUL HITE, GEORGE CAMPBELL, and ABE ROTH. In the “Plot of the HAPPILY MARRIED” were but two green mounds — one small and round, the other lean and lank. One could not read the names, but the first name on the long grave, tho’ a man’s, suggested a girl, and his last name, was not of the country! Both cheered and saddened by hearing of the fates of the best class that ever strolled over old Kentucky’s grounds, I gathered up my gown, now earth- stained, and draggled, and bidding my firey escort adieu, flew back to the eternity whence all had come, and to which all had returned. Twilight fell over the earth, the young moon came out, and soft spring stars shone kindly over the old, old, buildings of K. S. U. and over the century old, but newly budding campus. God bless you, class of 2015, and all be- tween ours and yours, and all evermore to come! Christine Hopkins, - Class Prophetess. £ SER. 006 !j ? 3 Jf 3 O f Tonsorial Artists SEmo e.

Both Mr. Enoch Grehan and Miss Marguerite McLaughlin are newspaper writers of distinction, being among the best in the profession. Mr. Grehan, one of the best paragraphers in the country, is a graduate of Transyl- vania University, and Miss McLaughlin, is a graduate of State. The course offered is broad and comprehensive, and gives the students practical experience on the Lexington dailies. 1 he Department is rapidly growing, so fast in fact, that a newspaper will be gotten out by the students in this Department, next year. Mr. Grehan is also widely known as a dramatic critic. The numerous advantages offered, together with the strong personality of the instructors will make this one of the strongest Schools of Journalism. The Fossil Hunter Percy Paul Algeron Smithers Was a quiet and thoughtful lad; But he had the “bug” of research And he had it mighty bad. He had read the works of Dante And of Shakespeare and of Poe; He was strikingly familiar With the wondrous works of Noe. But he felt his sum of learning To be yet a trifle weak; So in dry and dusty book-shelves Unknown works did Percy seek— Till at last his prayers were answered, And he found a volume rare, Filled with many hieroglyphics Of pronunciation bare. ’ 1 is a new and wondrous language”; Cried our hero in his glee. But alas! His hopes were blasted— ’Twas a mere Geology. So he pondered o’er its pages In a frenzy of delight, ’Til a high resolve o’ertook him; Filled his heart with power and might. “I will find,” he cried, “a fossil. Which will win me power and fame; I will find the ‘Condylarthra’: ‘Twill perpetuate my name!” Then he bought himself a hammer And a chisel and a glass; With a leather bag for fossils, To his outfit there was “class.” So he started one fine morning On his vast and world-wide search. Left his sweetheart “washerwoman” And his landlord—at the church. In his long and devious wanderings Over mountain, plain and hill, Of the rarest rocks and fossils Our Algernon had his fill. But the search for “Condylarthra” Urged him early, urged him late, ’Til in sad and tragic manner Our poor Algy met his fate. 113 He was hanging by his eyebrows From a steep and lofty cliff, When a mountain breeze arose And blew a gale which was quite stiff. Though his eyebrows were full heavy, They were never built for shocks, So our hero fell about a mile Into a pile of rocks. When I hey gathered up the fragments They could see that death was nigh; But before his spirit left him, These sad words did Percy sigh: “Place the dear old ‘Rhynchotrema’ At my feet and at my head; Fill my hands with ‘Pentacrini,’ When, in a short while hence. I’m dead; Put the ‘Pentremites’ near me When my spirit gains release— Lay me down among the fossils, boys, And let me rest in peace.” Dean of Men The office of Dean of Men was created at the University since the Class of Nineteen Fifteen have been in school. The venerable and beloved Vice President, James G. White, was the first Dean of Men. Upon Professor White’s demise last summer, Columbus Rudolph Melcher, Professor of Ger- man, was appointed in his stead. The office is the natural outgrowth due to increase in the number of students. It was created with the desire to stimulate more intimate relations between the student body and the Faculty. Each student selects a member of the Faculty as an adviser, who works in connection with the Dean of Men, to the ultimate welfare of the morals and industry of the students. Dean Hamilton Dean of Women Miss Anna Jackson Hamilton, M.A., came to Kentucky State in 1910 to accept the position of Dean of Women and Associate Professor of English in the College of Arts and Science. Previous to that time she had taught in all the branches of the public school system, including preparatory, elementary, high school, night school, and normal school. Her wide experience with co-educational work has been the keynote to her success in the University. Miss Hamilton has done much civic and social work in the state, having served on the Jail Board for Matrons, Juvenile Court Board, Social Workers’ Club, and the School Board. She was at one time President of the Federation of Women’s Clubs of Kentucky. Miss Hamilton s work for the women of the University in improving conditions at Patterson Hall and regulabng the social standards and functions of the campus is too well known to need mention here. Suffice it to say that no other one person has done so much for the women of the University since its foundation. As Associate Professor of English, Miss Hamilton has been instrumental in intro- ducing many new cultural courses and in raising the standards of the English Department. Her recent appointment as a member of Committee No. 7 on Vocational Training of the Southern Conference for Education and Industry is a pleasing testimony of the reputa- tion Miss Hamilton has won by earnest effort and broad experience. 118 College of Agriculture The Agricultural College is ideally situated, in the heart of the far- famed Blue Grass region of Kentucky. Many varying soils may be found within a few miles of the University, and this with the large live stock interests around the city, contribute largely to the success that has come to this college. Dean Kastle, altho a chemist, and one of the best in the country, is thoroughly conversant of all phases in the direction of the Experiment Station and the College of Agriculture. The class of 1915 has, by far, the largest number of graduates ever turned out by this college. Joseph Hoeing Kastle, Ph.D. Dean of College of Agriculture and Director of Kentucky Experiment Station.

C ivil Engineering in its various phases in all probabilities is next in importance to Agriculture relative to the development of the natural resources in the commonwealth. Highways, bridges, sanitation, water supply, water power development, and all lines of rural and municipal engineering administering to the welfare of the country and urban population finds a place in the curriculum of the College of Civil Engineering and places it amongst the first factors of the State in all matters connected with internal de- velopment. The College of Civil Engineering maintains a strong, rigid four years’ course which includes not only the branches above mentioned, but all other lines of civil engineering usually offered in a university course. The Brooks Civil Engineering Society, and the Transit, a monthly publication, are important factors connected with the College of Civil Engineering, and in a general way contribute much to the development of the College. 124 ■AW - yJ Civil Engineering Faculty Walter Ellsworth Rowe, B.S., C.E.

Captain Lavercombe led his team well, but the team did not seem to follow. In one instance they carried the ball to the Mech’s five-yard line. The referee thought they had worked hard enough for the time being and therefore gave the ball to the Mechs. The individual stars for the Civils and Miners were many. Slim Ehrlich played a consistent game at tackle, for several times he was seen in the vicinity of a play. Mick Hanley’s uniform attracted a lot of attention from the gentle sex. Mick was also quite a bother to Caywood, as he got in Caywood’s way frequently while trying to get away from plays. Bill Noel showed his old time form by making a seventy-five-yard dash while his cohorts held the Mechs. Bill would have made a touchdown, but stopped to rest (Bill’s getting pretty old), and one of the Mechs broke loose and caught him. Tiny Cooke played hard for a little fellow, but his weight was against him. Clark Rogers was generally on the sidelines while the rest were fighting for glory. Parrish lost his wind and had several small boys looking for it while Shorty Coombs took his place. Hank Noel was lined up for the Civils, but it could not be determined whether he was playing for the Civils or Patt Hall. Karrick skinned his nose and was unable to root the Mech s line. Pitt Rollings played the best game of his career, although this was his second game. Allison’s playing was an education, for he tore off several end runs, netting altogether about minus two yards. 128 r The College of Mines and Metallurgy The College of Mines and Metallurgy embraces the following schools: School of Mining Engineering. School of Metallurgical Engineering. School of Extension. Kentucky has the unique distinction of being the only State in the Union, to have two coal fields of entirely different geological age. One hundred miles to either the East or West from Lexington puts one in some of the richest coal lands in the world. With the coming of the railroads, the Eastern fields are finding outlet for their great output. Statistics show that this State in a few years will be the largest producer of fuel. The College turns out four good men this year, who under the direction of Dean Norwood, who is State Mine Inspector, have already had much valuable experience in their work. College of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering This engineering school is second to none in the country. I he Engineers turned out from this place are well trained, and efficient. The graduates all have positions with the country’s large industrial plants, before school is out. No man who is lazy or who has no natural liking for this line of endeavor should, by any means, select this as his course, as it is the proud boast of the Mechanical Faculty, as to the number of hours’ work their students carry. The Faculty is especially strong in all departments. Thirty-nine engineers graduate with this year’s class. Frederick Paul Anderson, M.E. Dean of the College of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, Professor of Mechanical Engineering. Leon Kaufman Frankel, M.E. Professor of Applied Mechanics, Head of the Department of Mechanics of Engineering. William Edwin Freeman, E.E. Professor of Electrical Engineering, Head of the Department. Louis Edward Nollau, M.E.

Lectures are given by the best legal talent in the state to the students. The number of graduates each year is large, and this year is no exception, as many of the best men in the class come from under the tutelage of Judge Lafferty. The Law Library is the pride and joy of the College, and is one of the best to be found anywhere. William Thornton Lafferty, A.M. Dean of the College of Law, Professor of Law and Comptroller.

The Graduate Club was organized in April, 1914. It includes as honorary members, the Graduate School Committee, and as active members, all resident graduate students. The purpose of the organization is to promote a spirit of good fellowship among the graduate students and to enlarge the perspective of all by bringing them into closer contact with minds of a different bent. Thus it is hoped that the Graduate Club will help build up the Graduate School by making it more of a unit, and will also help the recipients of higher degrees from this University to become well-rounded scholarly men and women.

Since he has been in the coaching game his teams have been in about four hundred contests, and have been winners in nearly three hundred. This is a re- cord that has been equaled by but very few directors in the country. It is with sincere regret that we learn that he has de- cided to quit coaching and re- turn to school. During his sojourn here he has made countless friends and admirers by his rare per- sonality and clean sportsman- ship. Dr. Tigert Dr. John J. Tigert will take up Coach Brum- mage's work next fall. This fact alone will insure that we have a winning team, as “Tige” is the best known and best liked man on the campus. He has had a great deal of experience and there is no closer student of athletics in the country. The men will work their heads off for him. The work achieved by the Freshman team last Fall, when they were scored upon but once, is a fitting attest to Dr. Tigert’s ability. His athletic prowess at Vanderbilt and Oxford, England, is too well kn wn to need mention here. So the Class of Fifteen leaves, knowing that the care and interests of the Wild Cats are in com- petent hands. 154 1915 Scores Kentucky.............. 87 Wilmington .........

Review of the Football Season HIE Wildcats started the football season in a rush by making short shift of some of the weaker prey, but when the real test came the “Kentucky Furies” were right there with sharpened claws to use on the aggressive visitors. Wilmington and Maryville were easy picking. In fact it was hardly neces- sary for the “Cat” to show its claws at all, and even the “Kittens” drove them off the playground. The score in the first instance was.87 to 0 and in the second 80 to 0. The real test came, however, when the Wildcats met the big huskies from Missis- sippi and sent them home with the impression that the Kentucky boys are “some fighters.’ The Wildcats’ sharpened claws made quite an impression on the “greased coats-of-armor that the visitors wore. When the Aggie “had flown” the Wildcat was still on the field chewing a greasy piece of rag, and the scorekeeper announced that Kentucky had won the game with a margin of 6 points, 1 9 to 13. Earlham was just like the first two and allowed the Blue and White to pile up a score of 81 to 3. Next the Wildcats journeyed to Cinci and after eating a “sumptuous” lunch went out on the gridiron and were defeated 1 4 to 7. The ball was carried over once more by the Wildcats but by some chance it got in the possession of the enemy, and the valuable 6 or possibly 7 points were lost. Jumping next to Lafayette, the Wildcat was weary and travel worn and after a game fight allowed Purdue to fix the score 40 to 6. With “Jimmy” suffering from a bad shoulder, and Hite with a bad ankle, the Wildcats were hardly in a position to put up the usual stiff fight, only losing, however, to ore of the strong teams of the West. The little neighbor from Louisville played hard and long, encouraged by a loyal band of rooters, but could not withstand the terrific attacks of “Kentucky’s Pride.” The score was 42 to 0. In the final and hard-fought contest the lads from Tennessee took the measure of the crippled Wildcat, by a score of 23 to 6. If all the parts of that wonderful machine had been in good condition the tale might have been different. This, coupled with the playing on a foreign field, was too much and the victory was theirs. 1 he sting of defeat was lessened somewhat by the victory that our Freshmen won on Stoll Field over the Tennessee Freshmen. The total score for the season was Kentucky 318 to her opponents 93, which does not sound so badly to the loyal enthusiast, and after the Thanksgiving defeat the slogan is, “We’ll get Tennessee’s goat in 1915.” In reviewing the past football season for the year of 1914 we cannot fail to men- tion the members of the second team and the “scrubs” who worked so earnestly and faith- fully to uphold the fame and reputation of the Wildcats, and to make a place on the team. Each and every man worked hard, and each and every one deserves much credit for his faithfulness to the work under the conditions in which he labored. Many of those who played so brilliantly on the gridiron this past season, in many of the hotly contested games, were “subs” only last year. It is with deep regret that we lose ten good men this year, whose places will be hard to fill—Smith, Downing, Parks, Tuttle, Scott, Bailey, Hite. Petrie, Wright, and Mc- Caulley—only leaving Schrader, Crutcher, Thompson and Zerfoss as a nucleus around which to build a winning team for 1915. Men like “Bill” Clark, Parker, Rodman, and Gumbert are all good bets for the coming season, and they all deserve much credit for the spectacular work which they have done in the past. The past season had the “Jinx” for the “Blue and White” and before the end of the season nearly every man on the team was injured to the extent that he was obliged to watch the affray from the side lines or the bleachers; and when such a condition as this exists it is impossible for coaches to build up a consistent winning team, or to specu- late on the results of a game when regular men are playing out of their accustomed positions. The fight, nerve, headwork, and the ability of all the players who defended their Alma Mater on Stoll Field this past season is a source of much joy and much favorable comment by the members of the student body and the alumni of the University. The team this year was exceptionally light for a University schedule; Purdue, Mississippi, Cincinnati, and Tennessee outweighed the locals to a man in every instance, but the “Wildcat” spirit instilled into the blood and manhood of our heroes maintained a showing excelled by none, as the scores will show. In the middle of the season Pete Rodes volunteered his services, training and ability as a coach and made good from the beginning, and as one of the coaches for the past season he deserves and receives praise and commendation for the real football he taught to the squad. Pete Rodes and Dr. Tigert were invaluable assistants to Coach Brummage. The Freshmen under the tutelage of Dr. Tigert made a wonderful showing, and the team is picked by many authorities as far outclassing any Freshman team in the South. The strong Tennessee Freshman eleven was no match for the Kittens and we romped away with a big score and the visitors couldn’t even tally here on “Turkey” Day. “Doc” Rodes was the Freshman star, and Hayden, Grabfelder, Server, Simpson and Hickerson bid fair to regular berths on the Varsity this fall. The past has been wonderful, and more than our share have been victories, but the coming season, with the heavy schedule, the prospects as we now see for an unusually successful season under the coaching direction of Coach Tigert brings us to the realiza- tion that Kentucky State will hold honors never before held by the Blue and White Stars. “SQUIRELLY! RAH! SQUIRLLEY!” mmmMS James Park, Captain and Quarterback “Turkey” was wisely chosen for Captain, and his cool head and clever handling of the team saved many points for the Wildcats. It was no uncommon sight to see Jimmy punting sixty-five and seventy yards, and hurling the forward pass with deadly precision for almost that distance. He was probably the tallest quarter in the country and when under way those long legs certainly covered the ground. Although a brilliant future awaited him in professional baseball, he did not save himself and fought valiantly and successfully like a true Wildcat leader. William Tuttle “Squirlley.” There may be others possessing this “monaker,” but to State sympathizers it means nothing but the best all-round athlete that ever attended the University. Among the stars of the grid, at State “Tuttle L. H. B.” will always be among the most scintillating. Never injured, never “grandstanding, ’ yet performing the most phenomenal deeds, he was easily the most feared man on the team. It is said that Bill could make any team in the country, but we are mighty glad that he didn’t try for we would have lost one of the best players that ever wore the Blue and White. f 159 Football Herschel Scott, Fullback “Scotty, Captain of the ’13 eleven, was the same game player, and as quick to find the weak spots in the opposing team as ever. Seeming to possess no fear of injury, Scotty would hurl himself into the flying mass plays of his opponents, and was one of the greatest blockers in the country. For a man of his weight he was a demon at h.tting the line. The stands will no longer cheer for him, but those who have seen him play will always remember his consistently brilliant game. James Thompson With a mass that withstood almost any shock “Fats” was always in the game with a heart, and in way that counts. Quite different from most big boys, he has lots of speed and made some good gains. That fateful day when “Fats made a touchdown from the kickoff will long be remembered. Several men favored him for Captain of the 1913 Wildcats, but as one of the hard- working eleven his presence will always be known. Football Paul Hite, Halfback “Pauline” trained hard and faithfully this year, and as a result he was one of the most dependable and most feared back field men in the South. His specialty was long runs around the ends. He is as fleet as a deer, and this lightning like speed, with h s ability to dodge tacklers, was his main asset. I his was Paul s last year cn the team, and it will be a long time before such a spectacular ground gainer as this debonair young man is seen in action on Stoll Field. Charles Schrader, End As a consistent worker, who does his duty without question, Dutch was a valuable man, and well deserves to lead the 1915 eleven. On end he always played hard, and handled himself well when called upon to take Park’s place in the punting. The other team always dreaded to see “Germany” coming down the field with his long strides, carrying the ball in the hollow of his arm. Always determined to work hard, he should ■■ Football J. Yost Bailey, Center “Bill” is probably the lightest center that ever guarded the Blue and White back field. No man with more nerve ever played the game. He played the open cen- ter game to perfection, and there were very few times that he failed to stop his man. Bill’s passing to his backs was at all times depend- able and although he emerged from each conflict with his face in splints, he was right back there with the fighting spirit on the following Saturday. Floyd Wright, End “Wrasty” showed his loyalty to his Alma Mater by coming out for end after Roth was injured. Although this was his Senior year and he had never played Varsity football before, Wrasty” was one of the best men on the team. He was especially adept at handling Park’s long forward passes, and at breaking up plays around his end. He is phenomenally fast, and his speed will help him when he goes to play baseball with the Cleve- land American League team, to whom he is under con- tract for the 1915 season. 162 Football Franklin Corn, Guard and Tackle Franklin, the Apollo of the team, performed Homeric service for the Wildcats. Although this was his first year as a regular, he acquitted himself like a veteran. He was quick to take advantage of an opening in his opponents’ line, and when there was no opening, why, he made one! Franklin did not possess the strength that his size would indicate, owing to his youth, but with another year, supplemented by experience gained this year, he will make one of the best line men in the State. Gibson Downing, Guard “Gip” is one of the gamest players ever on the team, as well as one of the very best ones. He plays so low that it makes his style eccentric, but it is certainly very effective. For four years he has given his best services to the team, and his place in the line will be very hard to fill, when Coach Tigert calls his proteges on the field next Fall. While “Gip” was never heavy, he has never found a man within ten pounds of his weight who could hold him. Football Charles Petrie, Guard Charles is not as long as some of the Wildcats, but he is about as wide and can guard as much territory as the next man. He put up a stiff fight in each game that he played in last season. The only regret of the team and rooters is that he did not join the squad earlier in his college career. With two or three years’ work on the gridiron, Charles might have developed into a wonder, but even then he always made the other fellow realize that he was in the game. Some of his best work was on the defensive far down the field, and he nearly always stopped his man. Karl Zerfoss, End and Halfback With plenty of nerve and a mass that was hard to stop “Weefoot” made a strong man during his two years on the team. As an all-round man he is seldom surpassed. For a while his work on end was good, and he made consistent gains when playing in the backfield. Karl always hit the line hard and with some work on the track to give him a little more speed, he ought to make one of the strongest men on the team. Football James Hedges, Sub. Quarter “Jimmy,” the watch-charm half and quarter was a favorite with the fair spectators. The opposing teams had sympathy for Jimmie—until he had made a few runs and tackles. At Tennessee, during the Thanks- giving game, the stands cheered for Jimmy, until he made a twenty-yard run on the first play, and a few moments later put the terrible “Red” Rainey out of the game by a vicious tackle. Notwithstanding his handicap due to his diminutive size, he is a valuable player, and if he was a little larger we hate to think what a terror he would be. Maury Crutcher, Left Tackle This is Maury’s second year on the team and he certainly was one of the mainstays. Crutcher s work, though seldom sensational, was consistent and consci- entious. He is the boy who believes in working hard and saying little. As Maury is only a Sophomore he will if nothing happens to interfere, return next year to show some of the more youthful ones what it lakes to be a Wildcat. He is very fast for a line man. Football George R. Smith, Guard and Center The entire University was glad to see “George R.” make the team this year, and make it so emphatically! He is one of the hardest workers that have ever “scrubbed” on Stoll Field. He has always been one of the best men out there, but has been very unfortunate in past years. He is absolutely without nerves—nothing seeming to hurt him. As “George R.” graduates this year, he will never “scrap” again on the gridiron. George Gumbert, Half-back George is easily the best all ’round athlete in his class. Although, owing to the all star backfield, he would get into the game only after the removal of one of the stars, but when in, he showed a great deal of “class.” He was injured while making a vicious tackle, toward the last of the season, but the injury has happily healed and he should make a valuable man for the team next Fall, when the “Wildcats” tackle the hardest schedule ever faced by the Blue and White. 166 Football Abe Roth, End Abe was not in good condition this year, owing to an injury sustained last year, and consequently he was not the same deadly tackier and lightning-fast end that he was, when he was watched and feared by all opposing teams. But in the years that he has been in College he has given great and valuable service to the team. It was certainly thrilling to watch his adept handling of forward passes and race across the goal line. : I WH f Ik Student Manager Walter B. Croan 167 Review of the Baseball Season OACH ALPHA B RUMMAGE, who had coached, the football and basket ball teams the preceding season, started the training of a very large squad of Wildcats, who tried out as soon as the first robin chirped. As usual, the gigantic squad that reported during the first few days, dwindled until only those of fit caliber remained. When the season was advanced, there were only a few capable substitutes to take the place of the regulars, should they be injured. The first squad, however, presented a lineup with which few college teams could hope to cope. “Squirrely” Tuttle was placed at first base, after having substituted as an outfielder for two years. He was placed there as an experiment, but after a few days’ practice, outclassed any first sacker that has been on Stoll Field for a long time. Coach Brummage seemed to know just how to shift his men so as to obtain a maximum result from their efforts. The only serious weakness of the team was the absence of a capable pitcher to alternate with James Park, and the absence of a regular second baseman. Among the substitutes who rendered valuable service to the team, were Thomas, Grubbs, and Bailey. Taken all in all the team was an extraordinarily good one, playing well together and taking advantage of all openings offered by their opponents. The fact that two men, Capt. Wright and J. Park have been signed to play in the American League shows that the Wildcat baseball team of 1914 was on a par with any college baseball team in the country. Too much credit cannot be given Captain Wright, for the manner in which he led his team, both with his fighting spirit and his example in the field. From the top of the batting order down, the team had men who were liable to break up a game at any moment with their timely hitting. During the season the team lost five and won. nine games, and amassed a batting average of .287. When this book goes to press the team is preparing for the season of 1915, and since we lost but two men last year, Bryson and Woodson, and were reinforced by the addition of several promising Freshman players, the team should make a fine record this yeai. It was very unfortunate for the team that the two best men, Park and Wright, while playing football last year received injuries that have prevented them reporting with the rest of the team. However the season will not be far advanced before these two mainstays will be seen back in the line-up. The defeat at football, the fall before, at Illinois, was partially revenged when their team was so soundly trounced on Stoll Field by the score of 14 to 2. Our team was never defeated until the last man was retired. It was a team of which the Uni- versity is proud, and it will be recalled as being one of the most famous that ever represented “Old State. 173 Base Ball Batting Averages Games. A.B. Hits. Pet.

It is unnecessary to tell you that this is some ball player. College pitchers don't grow wings skilled enough to fool Wrasty,’’ and when he does get on base, the score-boy knows there’s to be more work for him. A flash on the paths, Wright is going to play for the Cleveland Americans after his days at State are over, and Joe Jackson will have a fit running mate. Wrasty” was an ideal Captain with his coach- ing, encouragement and example. James Park, Pitcher. With Jimmy on the hurling hill the stands knew that we wouldn’t need the fire department to put the other side out. Turkey’s” repertoire includes about everything that a pitcher should have, and in addition he wields the ash to such advantage that he is placed next to the clean-up hitter in the line-up. Connie Mack of the Athletics, has signed Park to pitch for his White Elephants when school is out, and Jimmy’s ability, cool and quick-witted mind and ex- emplary habits should, under the tutelage of this wizard of the diamond, make him one of the best pitchers in the game. Bailey, Sub. While Bill did not play in enough games to make his K, he was a valuable man. When in the game he fielded his position well, though he did not punish the leather severely. He will make them move to ease him out of a position this year. Baseball Tuttle, First Base. Crum, Outfield. Senator” has the pernicious habit of laminating the old globule to far-off places, whenever he lugs that old wagon tongue to the dishpan. Crum’s heavy artillery has been the feature of nearly every game. “Senator” is a most valuable man to the team as he is a fair mask-man and possesses a good throwing arm. But the way he does blister the bean! C. Park, Catcher. Chicken had been catching Jim for a long time and came out to warm up the pitchers last spring. He got his chance in a Varsity game and developed into one of the best catchers that ever peered thru the bird cage on Stoll Field. We look for much improvement in his game as he has a lot of natural ability. Throwing well to bases, his only fault is his consistent hitting to right field, and that isn’t such a fault as a glance at the averages will show. When “Houn” was placed on the initial sack he found his natural position. His old black bat drove out many an extra-cushion wallop, and after becoming familiar with his position he fielded sensationally. Tuttle is a finished athlete in every branch of sport, and Stoll Field will be loser when “Squirrely” doffs the Blue and White for the last time. Watch him this spring. 176 Baseball Reed, Left Field. “Biscuit,” the hard hitter of last year, was unfortunate in having so many of his drives go to fielders. However, he delivered many a timely “blow. Oh yes, Reed is faster than a truck and while two-baggers were his specialty, he deserved all he got on his long hits. He is possessed of baseball sense and if there is an outfield position cinched this year that po- sition is “Biscuit’s.” The coach is also grooming Bis- cuit” for the hot corner. Schrader, Third Base What it takes to make a ball player, Dutch has it. “Dutch” was shifted from his accustomed roost on sec- ond to the hot corner and he played the bag like a Steinfeldt. They could never rattle this player and his seeming indiffer- ence at the plate has caused more than one opposing pitcher to be unwary enough to lose his old ball game. Dutch may pitch this spring. Waters, Shortstop. Waters was a highly-touted phenom before ever donning the Blue and White spangles. His fielding, especially his stops and snap-throws from deep short, were all that could be expected or desired, though his failure to tickle the onion consistently was probably due to the ‘off year, which comes to every player. We expect him to punish the leather se- verely this spring. 177 Baseball Bryson, Fielder. Dart s balling average did not suffer from obesity, nevertheless bis blows were turned in at most opportune moments. Don’t think that because Dart is in the Legislature now, stealing bases is a habit recently acquired—he’s that kind of a ball player, too. His faithful, steady work in the out- field helped to win many a victory for the Blue and White team. Woodson, Pitcher. t , “Woody had first call as an alternate for Park, though1 he couldn't always hear said call! When Woody was right, though, his smoke baffled the best of 'em. The team had his services for four years and they will have a hard time finding a pitcher with as good chewing tobacco as Woody’s.” There was never a more willing heaver than he. ’ Student Manager Clyde P. Taylor 178 Basket Ball Review of the Season HE season of 1915 was one of the most successful ever witnessed at Kentucky State. From the beginning the team showed ability and team-work and it was on this account, largely, that vve were able to cope with such strong teams as Vanderbilt, Tennessee and St. Andrews. Most of us were not able to see the games in the South, but we know that the team did its best, for it always does. Tennessee had one of the strongest teams in the S. I. A. A., and it was only the excellent work of our team that defeated them here. They had not been defeated in any athletic contest during the entire school year until they came to Kentucky. Vanderbilt came with a strong aggregation with many victories to their credit, but they were defeated by the skill of the trained Wild Cats. The two Vanderbilt games were among the most hotly contested ever witnessed here. However, there are numerous other teams which were unable to overcome the superiority of our human machine and, therefore, were added to the long list of those who “also ran.” Nevertheless, we were not able to go through the entire season without defeat, as we have done in the past. Tennessee, Vanderbilt and St. Andrews were able by almost superhuman effort, to de- feat us, but for every victory of theirs at our expense there was a corresponding defeat. In the last game with St. Andrews our team-work was good, but we were very unfortunate in locating the basket. This was true on other occasions, notably the first game with Vanderbilt, but very seldom did we know defeat. We would not think of passing over without referring to that vallianl band which is known as “scrubs.” We would not call them that for they are but little less than the team. We think it can be safely said that they could make any team in the state “work hard for its living.” And then, after all the “scrubs” of today make the team of tomorrow. It is difficult to pick the star of the season for are they not all stars? In the sixties when General Morgan and his troops were in operation all who opposed him feared the issue and were glad for even a chance to surrender after they had battled with his undaunted band for a short while. Now again there comes Captain Morgan and his men and like the for- mer warrior, to whom monuments have been erected, conquered those who dared to oppose him in athletic battle. To him and his band what better and ever- lasting a monument could be erected than the fame of Kentucky and its State University and admiration and devotion of those who knew them. But I stood still in the doorway and watched them riding by; They came; they passed; with shouts and'noise in haste they spend along— Morgan, Morgan, the hero and his band, so big and strong.” Student Manacer Abe Roth Basket Ball 1914 Schedule and Scores Kentucky State............. 37 Kentucky State.............. 1 8 Kentucky State............. 35 Kentucky State............. 23 Kentucky State............. 22 Kentucky State............. 24 Kentucky State............. 32 Kentucky State............. 36 Kentucky State............. 22 Kentucky State........... 20 Kentucky State............. 27 Kentucky State............. 15 Kentucky State.............31 1 Number of games played..... 12 Number of games won...... 7 Number of games lost...... 5 Percentage 58.333 per cent.

Of course he would not be a freshman forever and, therefore, we have for three years watched his phenomenal playing on the varsity. He was captain of the 1915 team, making an ideal leader, and we regret to say that we will lose him this year. Morgan's “long suit” was playing near the side lines and thus interfering with many beau- tiful passes of the enemy. His shots were accurate and at times even miraculous. He played in 10 games and made 108 points. Pi Karl Zerfoss, Forward and Guard Karl is big, steady, strong and unfortunate. Many excellent and beautiful shots, attempted at difficult angles, dropped into the basket, jumped about and rolled out again. But, just the same, he knows how to play basket ball. His passing is sure and swift, his eye is steady and his mind is clear. His record does not show him to be the player that he really is. He played in 7 games and made 50 points. William Tuttle, Forward “Squirrelly Tuttle has not a peer in the entire South in basket ball. His work was clean-cut, accurate and snappy yet all his moves were made calmly and surely. He is as fast as “greased lightning on ice with dogs after it. He is one of the best, if not the best, player State ever had and it is with great regret that we lose him this year. “Squirrelly’s” place on the team will be difficult to fill with another man upon whom we can rely as we did upon him. He played in 12 games and made 61 points. 183 Basket Ball .O Herschel Scott, Guard Scott is one of those game, hard-fighting members of the team who had little to say and yet attracted much attention by his brilliant playing. He was a guard of whom Kentucky is justly proud and he is so well known that any words of praise here would be useless. He worked steadily and all his moves seemed easy and smooth. Scott could always be seen in the game from start to finish. He played in 1 1 games and made 26 points. James Server, Center Server was a new man this year, but he proved to be another star addition to the team. He played an excellent game at center through- out the entire year. His great height was a source of advantage for he could strike the ball in almost any direction from the toss-up. He has plenty of strength and endurance and will make a wonderful center next year. We are certainly pleased to know that we will have him with the others to help make Ken- tucky’s fame travel throughout the athletic world next year. He played in 12 games points. and made 61 George Gumbert, Guard Gumbert is a man to be greatly admired. He is one of those who continually does his best and “sticks to it.” Though he has not long been a regular, we have already seen his speed and endurance. He is no°doubt one of the best guards of his weight, in the entire Southland. Anyone who witnessed the two games with Tennessee will recall that Gumbert’s man never made a field in either game. Though tossing goals is not his strongest point, he will make a valuable man next year. He played in 10 games and made 4 points. Girls’ Basket Ball ’ 1 5 HE Girls Basket Ball team of Kentucky State University won five out of six games played, thereby establishing a stronger claim to the State Champion- ship than any other Kentucky five. The season was a very successful one from every viewpoint—a strong varsity supported by aggressive substitutes, played a schedule of very difficult games. The team measured up to the class shown by former Blue and White stars, and in- creased Kentucky s reputation throughout the South for fast floor work and accurate goal shooting. In the first game Kentucky won a decisive victory over Louisville 27-16, excelling in every department of the game—team-work, accurate goal-shooting and speed. The second game, played against the weak Cincinnati Y. W. C. A. team, was an overwhelming victory for Kentucky—40-6, and was hardly more than a practice game. In Kentucky Wesleyan, however, the Blue and White found worthy opponents, and barely nosed out a victory—22-16. The big game with Vanderbilt proved some- what of a disappointment to lovers of basket ball; Kentucky won easily—9-5, in a game marred by fouls. Vandy failed to register a field goal in the last half. This strenuous schedule told on the players however, for Kentucky lost a rough game to Louisville on their floor—8-1 1, being unable to locate the basket successfully. Poor foul-goal throwing contributed largely to Kentucky’s defeat. The final game was another victory over the plucky K. C. W. team, 1 6-9. Kentucky is entitled to the championship of the state for ’15 on comparative scores and percentage of victories. Kentucky lost only one game; Transylvania and Louisville each lost two. 1 ransylvania tied games with Louisville, and also with K. C. W., whom Kentucky defeated decisively twice. Louisville lost to Kentucky, 27-16, and won from her, 11-8; moreover Louisville tied with T. U. From any comparison of scores and victories, as well as from the opinion of critics who saw all four teams in action, it is evident that Kentucky has a clear title to the State Championship for ’15. 1 he team, individually and singly, was probably the best that ever wore the Blue and White. Under the capable coaching of Dr. Tigert, and the energetic leadership of Captain Hughes, the team showed the effects of conscientious training and able direction in the superb teamwork which made it feared by opposing teams. The team loses Misses Hughes and Wood this year, and their places will be hard to fill. However three regulars. Misses Heller, Innes and Taul, and two splendid subs,” Misses Geisel and Bastin, are an excellent nucleus around which to form next year’s team. HMWM0V Basket Ball © Fast and strong and more aggressive even than in former seasons, Miss Hughes finished her fourth year on the team, playing a game that could scarcely be excelled. Her floor work was the best ever seen here. In the last half of the season her goal throwing improved so much that many pronounced her to be the best playet who ever wore the Blue and White. If such a thing were possible, it might be said that she was more popular with the crowd than ever before. It is with great regret that the followers of the Girls’ game see her complete her career at State. Olive Taul Forward Miss Taul has played two years on the team. As last year, her eye for the basket was perhaps the best of the State Five. When in the open she tossed baskets with deadly accuracy. Though not so strong physically, perhaps, as some of the ether members of the team she was ever in the thick of the fight and was at all times of great assistance to her team mates. Her woik in pitching fouls was of the same gilt-edged variety as in the previous season. Ilk Basket Ball Manager Elsie Heller Center Playing her third year on the team Miss Heller maintained her reputation as the steadiest and most con- sistent player on the Quintette. Taking her all-around play, offensive and defensive, she has probably never had an equal on the local floor. She was at all times de- pendable and scored points when they were most needed. She has yet to meet an opponent over whom she failed to show superiority. She well deserves the Captaincy which has been conferred upon her by her team mates for the season of 1916. Natalie Wood Guard This was Nat s fourth and last year on the team. She was the same whirlwind as in former seasons, only a little more so. Though as small as ever she seems to have added speed, though always since her connection with the team the fastest member of the squad. Perhaps no player could be found anywhere of equal size who can strike such terror into her opponent. Her gradua- tion from the University will bring a loss which all friends of the game and of the Institution feel with keenness. Basket Ball Nancy Innis Guard Although used last year as a utility player, Miss Innis played regularly for the first time this season. Her work was a revelation to local followers of girls basket ball. Very large and very powerful and possessed of great determination she combines all the essential qualities of a good guard. If she continues to develop as she has done this season, she will eventually make as great a guard as has ever represented the University. Her teammates wisely selected her to manage the 1916 Five and she has the best wishes of all for her success. 189 Review of the Season should. HE 1914 track season was not so successful from the number of meets won but it was not from the first supported as it have been. Coach Ras- mussen developed some good men from the material he had, but as in 1913, men were lacking for the hurdles, weights, high jump and pole vault. Three meets were held during the season with Vanderbilt at Nashville; Cincinnati at Cincinnati, and Ten- nessee at Lexington. The first two we lost, but when Tennessee journeyed up. Dr. Anderson The new coach. Student Manager George Campbeli the Wildcats were in better trim and the Knox ville lads were humbled in defeat. The team was greatly handicapped in the Cincy meet by the absence of Abe Roth in the 100, 220 and 440 yard dashes and Captain Sanford in the quarter and half-mile. The men who made K s were, A. Roth, Hogrefe, B. Roth, Sanford, Sullivan, K. Zer- foss, Blevins and Neuhaus. This year’s squad promises well. Dr. Wil- iam Anderson the new coach is an able track man, having had much experience at Yale and he and Captain Abe Roth should put out a first-class team.

Roth...............................................Business Manager REVIEW OF 1914-1915 SEASON At the time the book goes to press the Strollers have successfully pre- sented the farce-comedy, “Charley’s Aunt,’’ in Lexington, at the Ben Ali, on January fifteenth, in Georgetown, at the Opera House, on February first, and in Mount Sterling, at the Tabb Opera House, February tenth. As is customary with the Strollers the production was staged entirely by the members of the organization. No outside assistance of any kind was re- ceived. At the three performances “Charley’s Aunt” played to more than two thousand people. “Charley’s Aunt” was originally intended for use as a road play only, but the Lexington performance was deemed advisable by the management, hence the initial presentation was staged at the Ben All. At this writing the Strollers are engaged in the selection of a second play to be produced at the Ben Ali early in May. This production will be even more ambitious than former ones and will involve a larger cast and more elaborate settings. The second play will be staged in Lexington only. The club has existed for six years as an independent student organization, and during that time has many notable achievements to its credit. The club is open to all students of the University, although membership is dependent upon qualification and is by invitation. Every effort is made to encourage dramatic art and foster appreciation of histrionic talent. The cast for “Charley’s Aunt” appears below with a synopsis of scenes.

Coleman Kentucky at Vanderbilt Representatives J' S' Satley E. L. Fowler B. D. Sartin J. V. Chamberlain F. A. Harrison The Cincinnati-State Debate (At Lexington) Resolved, That the safety of the United States requires that we main- tain a navy equal to any of the great navies of the world, was the subject of the debate between our Law School and University of Cincinnati Law School on the night of March sixth at Cincinnati. The debate was warmly contested and many instructive and interesting points were brought out. State’s representatives, Messrs. B. D. Sartin, F. A. Harrison and J. V. Chamberlain, upheld the negative side of the question. Cincinnati was rep- resented by Miss Naomi Rasinsky, and Messrs. L. E. Conway and Wendall Keyser, who presented their arguments in a very convincing and logical man- ner. They persuaded the judges that we need not have a navy as large as some of the maritime powers, and were returned winners by a vote of two to one. The Cincinnati-State Debate (At Cincinnati) On the same night that our Law School team was debating in Cincinnati, another Cincinnati team opposed one from Kentucky University Law School in the K. S. U. Chapel, on the same question. Messrs. T. L. Creekmore, G. C. Bradley, and J. E. Torrence composed the State team. The affirmative side of the question was upheld in an able and impressive manner. The speakers carefully distinguished the different phases of the problem, and advanced strong arguments along the line of reasoning that our present navy is inadequate both in efficiency and numbers, and that conditions demand that the U. S. Navy be the equal of any in the world in efficiency, if not in numbers. The Cincinnati team, composed of Messrs. R. E. Werner, J. M. Bearman, and David Rosenberg, followed somewhat the methods and arguments that our victorious debaters at Cincinnati used. Their speakers, experienced and well-trained, debated the question in a concise and very convincing way, and were awarded the decision by a two to one vote. 4tef' w v it 284 Varsity Debaters J. N. Farmer C. V . Bailey S. S. Combs KENTUCKY-GEORGETOWN DEBATE The ’Varsity debating team won the seventh consecutive debate of the Kentucky Intercollegiate Debating Association by defeating Georgetown College in the Chapel of the University of Kentucky, March 12. The Kentucky Association was formed by Georgetown College, Central University, Transylvania University and the University of Kentucky in 1905 and since that time Kentucky has won seven debates. Kentucky was awarded the state championship for the six years preceding the last debate, when she was again declared the champion. The question for the debate between Georgetown and Kentucky was, Resolved, that the State of Kentucky Should Adopt the Unicameral System of Legislation. Georgetown had the negative side of the question, with Messrs. J. 1. Neil, E. W. Foster and R. Hubbard as representatives. Kentucky, upholding the affirmative, was represented by Messrs. S. S. Combs, C. W. Bailey and J. N. Farmer. Mr. Combs before entering the University had much experience in public speaking in the West and it is to the plains abounding with the unspeakable eloquence of Nature that he attributes his debating and oratorical inspiration. Mr. Bailey is an experienced debater from the Western State Normal. He hammers his pedagogic philosophy upon his audience with great force and power. Mr. Farmer before entering the Law Depart- ment of the University was editor of the Somerset Herald and is conveisant with the needed reforms of state government. 285 Tau Kappa Alpha Founded, Butler University, 1908 Publication—Tau Kappa Alpha Speaker Color—Light and Dark Purple.

Oh, Karl is as nice as can be, But taller boys naturally get me- My, if 1 just can get Slim.” Always so neat and so trim. Sure, George is quite clever and cunning, But his look is so hard and so grim; Give me a smile, oh, so stunning— Dear, how I'd love to get “Slim.

There’s no place in the world that’s like THE DORM. Now it's true that beds aren’t downy. And that Persian rugs are few. And that maids and butlers don’t around you swarm; But the “double decker’s” lofty. And the slipless “hardwood” floors Are a solace to the soul when in THE DORM. Though the longed-for balmy “showers” Are yet lacking, sad to say, And the atmosphere is sometimes far from warm; If you want to get a “five spot” Or to find a faithful pal”— Take a tip from one who knows, and seek THE DORM. When you’ve turned in Earth s last paper. And you’ll fizz and flunk no more On this globe with all its cruel stress and storm; Be your first request as follows, When you reach the pearly gates— “Pete, old chappie, eive me quarters in THE DORM! 299 IF SUCH IS DORM LIFE WHY DO THE FELLOWS ROOM OUT IN TOWN?

One look into a pawnshop On Water Street, or Lime, Shows movies aren’t the only place Where State guys “spend their time. A Complicated Ditty Quite a few days have come and gone, And some little time has passed; (same meaning as first line). A number of weeks have elapsed by now, (this is like the second). And we've gotten to here at last, (same thought again). A bunch of events have happened along And a number of things have occurred, (repetition of first). A whole lot of doin’s have come our way, (’same thought expressed differently). And quite a few things have stirred, (same as third line). There were numberless joys in the journey along, And the pleasures were many and sweet, (same thought). The years and the months have been blissfully spent, (again). And the time just couldn t be beat, (meaning of this line is the same as the first three). 300 Si 301 Here’s To You, Nat If someone on this confound staff Can’t write a joke on ’Nat, Said Big Boss Lee, Take this from me, We’ll cut this silly chat. Then witty Ken picked up his pen, And scratched his head and sighed: He wrote this verse, it might be worse. But h-----------, he never lied: You sit around and act so wise. And feign that knowing look; If you can’t pull some gag on ‘Nat,’ We’ll quit this doggone book. Here’s to you ‘Nat,’ you're not so fat, You’re just too cute to kill; Here’s hoping Dad e’er pays your debts. But never fools your Dill.” As Others See Us Mary, dear, I just adore those graceful, handsome Senior boys. Like Byers, Evans, Crawley, Clore, with mustache, cane and corduroys; Yes, Bessie dear, they’re mighty sweet, and always talk so loud and low, The Senior boys are hard to heat and gee, I hate to see ’em go. My lover is a Senior and when his love he speaks. From peanuts to milk chocolate, he brings me lots of eats; That Junior’s auto don’t catch me, for money care I not. For Seniors have the looks, my dear, that Juniors haven’t got.

WHEN TOBY GETS HIS CHECK The boys all come to Toby's room And ca II him ‘sweet spagett”; They pat his pate and don't forget To rub his dimple rubber neck— When Toby gets his check! Tobe's a glittering luminary Among his fellow men; The way they rush him is a sin Which no mirror can reflect— When Toby gets his check! He’s a king in simple garb, A “Royal” man they all admit, In “Justrite” clothes a perfect fit. They’re always ready to inspect— When Toby gets his check! They love the kale” as you and I, And for the “mon” they steer; They set him up to Lager beer; But Lord! the port wine of his peck- Evaporates his measly check! The days grew dark and gloomy For poor Toby O’Thunderwood; His dad too quickly understood And his decision did reflect— When Toby got his check! Now poor Toby’s down and out. And his friends are far and few; They do him not as they used to do, Nor his winning ways reflect— For nevermore does he get a check! They are preachers of safety first, And ministers of THEIR need; For this and nothing more they lead Poor Toby to a wretched wreck— After first he failed to get his check. 304 .j ,. Freshmen Attention! Ten Rules for Saving Money 1. Matriculate two or three weeks after the regular period for registration. 2. Chan ge your course of study several times. 3. Buy a Freshmans Bible. At first thought it seems as if the cost of this little volume is two bits. Not so! This is an hallucination and should not be cherished for one moment. They are as free as the air you breathe. By merely going to the Y. M. C. A. hall and contributing four dollars to the Blue Ridge Fund, you can have every penny of your “two bits refunded. 4. Procure a Campus Ticket. These may be had of any Senior for the nominal sum of twenty- five cents. A campus ticket furnishes the bearer admission to the campus and all the buildings thereon as long as they remain a student. Tickets are good every day between the hours of 8 a. m. and 4:30 p. m. (Sundays and holidays excepted.) 5. Purchase every book suggested by your prof. 6. Buy no second hand books. 7. Become proficient in the art of pool playing. 8. Attend the races faithfully and learn by experience to pick the winners. 9. Always get box seats at the Ben Ali. 10. Contribute freely and generously to everything. “Owed” to Freshmen Girls Fickle, fickle, Freshman girls, How you fool the Senior squirrels; Stuck above the rest so sly, Like you were last year at High. Senior’s taxi to a dance; Bright eyes put him in a trance; Then you wear a Junior's pin, Fickle, fickle, what a sin! Eat a Senior's candy down. Tell him he’s the best in town; Sunday with a Soph you flirt. Fickle, fickle, little skirt. Tell the Senior he’s a dear, From September thru the year, Then you turn your Senior loose, Fickle, fickle, what’s the use? 305 Bierbaum’s Escape Just a year ago it started, at the Cincinnati game. Old Bierbaum kinda on the sly had met a dainty “Jane”; But the girlie had a fellow and the fellow’s name was Pete, And he had a reputation that was pretty hard to beat. Things went on—they both were courting—each one called three nights a week. Each one knew he had a rival and the rivals wouldn’t speak. Petey’s night was always Friday, but for once he mixed his date; Bierbaum thought he’d slip one over, lowed he’d beat him sure as fate. Clothes brushed, new suit, new white collar, all joined in to make him shine. And he eased down to Marella’s, happy there at half past nine. All within was joy and pleasure. Cupid ruled; his rule is rife. All without, with stealthy stillness, tongues were stirring deadly strife. Pete had heard. His feelings gather like a soap that’s been made lather Settles to its natural slate and leaves the heart all liquid hate. Hate, that flowing, gathering, swelling, drives him after Bierbaum yelling: “Come thou forth, amorous Philander! Come do battle, noble gander!” Bierbaum, angry, on his feet starts up front his foe to meet; Then he halts—the lass is weeping—should he leave her, leave HER weeping? He thinks again his anger’s settled like the foam on beer-(bum!) And instead of thoughts of battle to a more peaceful issue run. So from the back door slipping softly while his rival longs for fight, He saves his pretty features by recourse to backyard flight. Our Mathematics Examination Paper 1. If three pink zebras could drink six Martini’s while a wrist-watched, how long would it have taken Polly Vest to graduate? 2. Calculate the percentage of water in boarding house soup; the percentage of steam heat in a dorm room when the mercury is shaking hands with the 10 degree below mark. 3. What would Max Batsel rather do for ten hours than study? 4. If the A. T. O.'s pledge a boy, how long will it take for him to be a football captain? 3. How long will it take Jimmy Moore to call Patt Hall nineteen times if he calls as he has been doing, at the rate of six times a day? N. B.—The other five questions were undecipherable. 306 ■ .....

V. D.’s (Briltingham’s Voracious Diners). Eat, drink and be merry.' Miss De Meanor was imported in 1911 from Slickaway, Ky. Before her exile she held the envious position of class poet of the Slickaway Eligh School, at which time she wrote perhaps her best work, a touching poem, The Tragic Death of a Mosquito, which is printed below. When she came to the University of Kentucky she became afflicted with the Alpha Alpha. Her hobby is the movies and there she may be seen assuming all the expression of the actresses, wor- shipping the actors, and sighing audibly as she leaves after having seen the last reel for the fourth time. She is a very popular girl and will be well missed when she leaves the University and embarks on her life journey in search of the golden fleece—a husband. With her gracious per- mission we publish herewith her soul-expiring poem: Little dear Mosquito, Lying there dead! Oh! Why did you light On grandfather's head? Now you are gone, Oh! Let tears flow! My heart is bursting, Oh! Oh! Oh!

There he delivered the valedictory address which caused the oldest inhabitant to scratch his head and say that nothing like it had been said since 55. When Cutt” arrived here, he in- quired for the best fraternity and was immediate- ly taken in by one. He never cuts a class unless he deems it either absolutely useless or necessary, but nothing short of force or money will prevent his other activities. He tried out for the Glee Club and was politely told that the club expressed its glee in a way quite different from that animal of Biblical fame and hearing ability. Cutt” is an authority on pool-room terms and rear entrances to saloons. Outside of these faults, he is a fine fellow and may succeed in life—but in nothing else. a s ci to •— to 33 Student Freshman Ivan’s Big feet Lady tO 6 15 o JU Bluffer Busy Man Irish Beanpolish All Girls U CQ S CJ in 3 o e CJ o 33 n 5 ‘c G G e G DO O G CO E T3 G 6 L CJ CJ CJ !

Frat Frothings (N. B.)—Since ihe fraternities at the University have no official publication in which to record a review of their activities, the “Kentuckian” freely gives this space to the noble purpose.) SIGMA NU The Sigma Nu’s are seriously considering taking in another auto as they have about driven the pull out of their Pullman car. The car must be big enough to hold the bunch and the owner must have no respect for tires or juice; he must also be willing to bring it out at any dear brother’s beck and call. KAPPA SIGMA The kappa Sig s, following their usual custom, met last Saturday night at their regular meeting place, the Zoo. Refreshments were served and the usual business (of paying for the drinks) transacted. Resolutions were passed boycotting the Phoenix (?) and everyone reported a grand old time. PHI DELTA THETA The annual Union Station Phi Delta Theta Convention, otherwise known as the Y. M. C. A. Reception Committee, convenes in September of each year under the main shed of the Lexington Pas- senger Depot. The sessions are usually informal and the committeemen are enabled to render much sacrificing service among the incoming students in promoting the noble work for which the Association stands The officers are selected with the utmost care, attaining their positions by the right of divine in- heritance. Being so experienced in the methods of he service, they are in a position to give great assist- ance to the new students in directing them to boarding houses on South Upper and other streets. Some of these instilled with the upright and exalted principles of the Association, soon appear with a badge significant of their loyalty and take their places that the noble work may continue. Fh R- Beginning next year the Reception Committee will be known as the Deception Committee. SIGMA ALPHA EPSILON Those S. A. E.’s are certainly enterprising chaps for it has leaked out that they already have their order in with Sears, Roebuck and Company for another dozen fresh pledges (assorted sizes) to be delivered September 15, 1915. ALPHA TAU OMEGA The Alpha Tau Omega announces their latest pledge. I. M. Strong, of Sunneyset High School, who has startled his fellow-students by his athletic prowess. He is only ten years of age, but he is touted as a sure-thing for the State football captain in ’29. DELTA CHI Next year the Delta Chi’s will depart from their custom of entering other frat goats, although there have been very enjoyable parties for the goats. They have been experimenting with a new adhesive compound which, when placed on a pledge pin, will cause the pin to “stay put. This was made necessary because of so many buttons disappearing this year. Lishen, com’mere, lishen! SIGMA CHI Owing to the difficulty of being able to have every man attend the weekly meetings at the house, the Sigs will henceforth hold all meetings at Miss Spurr’s Dancing “Academy.” This will enabh the chapter to have the full” quota present at every meeting on Friday evening. A season ticket parly rale makes it very pleasant for them since it dispenses with the necessity of the weekly drain of four bits for each member. The “Sodyjerks and “bell hops” present objected to their continual convening in the center of the floor so Miss Spurr has kindly consented to their using one of the corners of the room for a meeting place. The “Sweetheart of Sigma Chi” is one of the waltzes always on the program. Fraternity Conversational Code Have a cigarette. Have you ever seen the picture of our chapter Where are you from? Oh yes, you went to Illinois last year, didn’t you ? Have a cigarette. Did you take part in any athletics? Who are some of our fellows up there? Have a cigarette. Do you play the piano? This house isn’t fixed up very well, but we re just getting ready to decorate. Have a cigarette. house in California? It's some pippin, believe me. Have a cigarette. How long are you going to be down here? That’s Williams, who almost won the tennis tourney. Have a cigarette. Some of the fellows play the piano, but they aren’t here this afternoon. Have an Omar. Bred in Old Kentucky Studes A La Limenque A husky young Senior named “Squirrelly,” Is fond of a real pretty girlie; She started to quit, But Bill had a fit. So she came back to State again early. A good-natured Junior named Owen, For a maiden his heart’s overflowing; To him she's a dear Innis dreams he can see her, Wherever she’s at he’s a-going. An athletic Senior named Park, Had a lassie very dear to his heart; She went to T. U. And Jimmy got blue, And the air all around him got dark. A jolly young sinner named Jackson, Has a smile that s a welcome attraction; When he gets with the band. He will Delia a hand, But one smile at her means a faction. We have a young lady named White, Who is graceful and also petite; Her initials you see, Are reversed, “W. B.” Quite easy to change ’em, all right. We once had a Senior named Lail, With a voice like a hurricane gale; He could lead a good yell, And give Freshmen hell, But he left before the end of this tale. I here was a young lady named Moore, You may not have heard it before; But to rhyme it with such She s got it on “much”— Ten to one on Ben Franklin we’ll go her. A modest young Senior named Haynes, All noise and loud talking disdains; He s meek and he’s mild, Such an innocent child, But his mouth is as big as a crane’s. A chap, known as Morgan by all, Can do more than play basket ball; We 11 have, should he urge her, A Morganic merger, And “Lile” away time at the Hall. 320 %rrs . -f,.■ ■ jpaK KtJ 6s K. S. U.

Etiquette experts cannot agree on asparagus, so let somebody else lead off and follow accordingly. Never blow on your soup to cool it. Fan it with your hat. Under no circumstances, mix beer with your watermelon. Always tip your hat when speaking to a lady, unless she is a maid—then tip her. In eating soup don’t try to make more noise than your neighbor. You’ll do it without trying. When the sparkling wine is set before you, don’t drink more than six glasses. Remember where you are. Don’t put your napkin under your chin. Wear a soup-colored shirt. Never detour while telling an after-dinner story. You might lose your way and go around in a circle. Always withdraw in a crowd so your name won’t be connected with a missing hat or wrap. In dancing, don’t tread on your partner’s toe—unless she is wearing black shoes. Photographs should not be placed on the piano. The other fellow might call unexpectedly. Household Hints If bothered by mosquitos, move North. Children should not play the piano with a hatchet. Fly paper in a chair shows great stick-to-you-ive-ness. Alcohol will not remove stains from one’s character. If your husband makes love to the cook—fire the husband. Husbands are easy to get. Patent medicines are useful for polishing old furniture. Love thy neighbor as thyself—if she’s not married. Silence is golden. Get rich! Don t spend five cents car fare to buy a dollar article for ninety-eight cents. If you get bored with housekeeping, you can get board. Never make biscuits that will hang heavy on any one’s conscience. 1 o have a good complexion soak your face in buttermilk or cream over night. wrreRti 'nTf -e Jp wii -TVifTTW- I JVa.TTcB, III For, Yo rT V F)l1918 o DID THIS EVER HAPPEN TO YOU?

Br-r-r-r! (This time you wait almost thirty seconds.) TWO- FOUR!! (Long pause.) Hello, is this Patterson Hall? The office? Well, I want to speak to Miss Z-----. Thanks.

Well, second floor, won’t you please call Miss Z- to the phone? Yes, I’ll wait while you get her.

There’s some class to Mae Shigan, And I’d like to spoon again In the hammock that’s swinging in the sum- mer of the year. A lonesome “Ag” am I, Here’s the reason why: Chorus: I want to go back, I want to go back, I want to go back to the farm. Far away from “dorms” With a milkmaid in my arms. I miss the lovin’, the turtle dovin’ ’Neath the silvery moon. Your University is very pretty, Nevertheless I want to be there, I want to be there. A certain someone’s full of charm. That’s why I wish again That I was with Mae Shigan, Down on the farm. Hours With the Great JUDGE LAFFERTY “Good morning, gentlemen. (Aside—Yes, I'll see about that right away.) We want to get the rest of these cases worked off today. (Calls roll.) Mr. Monarch, you’re late. Anybody seen any- thing of Mr. Murphy? I'll just take his name off the roll. Mr. Clerk, read the minutes. Let's have order, gentlemen. (Tal es off his glasses arid puts them bacl( on.) Mr. Carter, have you filed your petition? (Tal es off glasses.) You see, gentlemen, that’s a very close question. Let’s have order, gentlemen. It takes intensive study; that’s what makes lawyers. (Puts glasses on.) We had a graduate last year who took the bar examination in New York and made the highest grade ever made up there. They were greatly impressed with his knowledge of the close points. He was a hard student. Mr. Nichols, are you ready to be heard on your demurrer? We’ll hear you now. Let’s have order, gentlemen. (Tal(es glasses off and raps on table with left hand.) What do you say, Mr. Dixon? When I was practicing law down in Harrison County, there was an old fellow named Wash Brown, who was a great mule swapper. (Just tal e the number, please, and tell him I'll call him.) They say he used to steal watermelons and paste them or his own vines. (Tittering.) You want to read the code, gentlemen. Give us your attention. (Puts glasses on.) We must read the code. There’s a conflict of opinion on that point. I’ll have to look it up to be sure. (School whistle sounds.) Now, gen- tlemen, you want to work up those cases. Write out all the court orders and come in here next time ready to carry these cases clear through to the issue.” (Talfes glasses off and puts them in case.) “TIGE” 9:15—Enter Dr. Tigerl. (Bang! Slams door!) “You-all are studying mighty hard this morning. What’s the matter? Didn’t you get your lesson last night? Where’s Mr. McKee this morning? I reckon he’s quit school; he hasn’t favored us with his presence for about a month now. How far did you read today? Well, Mr. Felix, do you know anything about this conversion? No, you can't do it that a-way. Well, I m not a-going to stop and explain all that over again; I’ve told you, I reckon, a hundred times why you can t convert an ‘A’ proposition simply and if you don’t understand it by now, I don't guess you ever will. (Aside: Don t suppose some of you ever will, anyway.) Now, I'm not a-going to argue with you about it! If you want to say that because all dogs are animals, all animals are dogs, why go on and say it. I can t help it! I ve tried a hundred times to show you why you can’t do that, but it seems like the more I try to show you why you can’t do that, the worse it gets. All I do is to make it more obscure. Well, is there anybody who can tell me how you do this? It seems to me that anybody wilb a little common sense would know that without ever looking at the lesson. (Aside: Don’t guess any of you do that anyway, though.) I don't see much use of me trying to show you anything about this if you don t ever look at the book any. I’ll admit this book don’t make this part at all clear, but I don’t see anything hard about this, do you, Miss Hayes? Well, how far do you think you can read for tomorrow? Take down to the end of the chapter then. That’ll do for today, I guess.” Exeunt Class, 9:30. PROFESSOR FRANKEL Enter Professor Fran el, 9:20. Well, what have we today? Oh yes, I remember now. (Indicating with hand.) All the men on these three rows go to the board. Mr. Scott, you d better go, too. You re here so seldom that it might do you good to recite once in a while. All take the same problem. Now I want to show' you the difference between a good man and the men who don t study. Mr. Maclean, you take the back board and show us how it is done. Hurry up, men, we want to get this explained. It’s so easy that it’s hardly 330 r vvorlh while putting it on the board. I want to give you some problems to bring in tomorrow, but before 1 give them I want to tell you about an old friend of mine I met on tbe train yesterday. He--------Excuse me just a minute, men, while I answer the phone. ( Returns ten minutes later.) Now, men, as I was saying, I’m going to give you some problems tomorrow, but before 1 give them I want to tell you about this friend of mine. He is a country doctor. (Ten minutes' tall? on the difference .between a country doctor and a city doctor, while everybody at the board copies Maclean's problem.) Now this shows what one can do if be has the necessary training. I just mention it to show you what one can do by taking advantage of his opportunities. What is that, Mr. Garrett? The third problem? I’ll explain it for you. It’s so easy that I know most of you got it, but I’ll take for granted that you didn’t. (Loo£s at problem, then around room.) Mr. Lovell, suppose you work that for Mr. Garrett and show him how easy it is. Why it’s too easy to try and I'm surprised that you didn't get, Mr. Garrett, as good a man as you are. You can’t work it, Mr. Lovell? Mr. Clark, did you get it? How long did you work on it? Two hours? Well, I’ll tell you what I’m going to do. I’m going to have all of you bring this problem in tomorrow all written out in ink. I just want you to convince yourselves how easy it is. Now, while the others are working at the board I’ll read you a letter I’ve just gotten from one of the students who graduated about five years ago. I wouldn’t tell you his name for anything; he was a poor student in his studies, but he has made good in life. He is making $8,000 a year now. As I say, this just goes to show you what a man can do by applying himself. (Last man at the board lal cs his seat.) Maybe some of you know him? Is there anybody here from E-----------------------—? Did you know a man named L----------, a black-haired fellow who always impressed me as not having much sense? He is the man. (First whistle blows.) Did any of you go to tbe Colonial yesterday? 1 very seldom go to a picture show because it seems just like a waste of time, but yesterday I happened to see a picture in which Clara Kimball Young, one of the greatest actress I ever saw, took the part of a Russian count- ess. It was remarkable and well wor h seeing. J—(And so on for five minutes.) Well, now we’ll have this problem explained. Mr. Sullivant, you’re a pretty good man. I’ll let you tell us how it is done. (Sullivan arises—second whistle blows.) Mr. Sullivan go ahead with the explanation. It won't lake but just a minute. Well take the next twenty pages for tomorrow. It’s all easy if you II study it.” PROFESSOR FARQUHAR Class enters; Farquhar seated, reading Poe. “Well, Hunt, you’re the last man in; you ou hla know what to do to that door! Where's that fellow, H. Lewis? I’m goin’ tuh save him in spile of himself. Iglehardt, you can't write these themes yet—you’ll never learn. These themes as a whole were fairly good, but the majority o’ them were rotten. Fields! Stand up! Why, man you act like a nigger. You’re not? 1 can prove that you’re a heathen. Can’t? Well, are yuh a woman? No! Well you’re a heathen! (Loud laugh from office chair in front of room.) That reminds me. Did yuh ever hear this one? Well, once there was a fellow who (joke deleted). Sit down! The man who said that Poe was drunk when he wrote “The Raven” was a liar! Why, man, that’s a fine piece of literature. Wish you Freshmen had sense enough to understand it. Ya, ya, ya, ya. Shut up, you can't prove anything! Say, don’t yuh know what a fine figure o’ speech that is? That’s a deep one. You wouldn’t know a good figure if you saw it. Don’t yuh try to tell me anything. 1 know that Poe was the greatest writer that ever lived. Man, that’s a regular rhapsody. What’s a rhapsody? A confusion of all literary forms, you mutt. Yes, shut up! These themes remind me of the time when (joke deleted). What? The hour up? We finish the book Monday. Get out o’ here!’ Note:—There’s a moral to this—The more you go, the more you learn and the less you know— in Farquhar’s English class. 331 THE LATEST WORKS OF OUR FACULTY MEMBERS Prof. Noe—“Poets May Come and Poets May Go, But I Write On Forever.” Prof. Dantzler— How I Prophesied the War.” Prof. Garman— From Your Back Yard Rain Barrel To the Back of Your Neck.” (The biog- raphy of A.

WHY MISSOURI BOYS LEAVE HOME A CO-ED HABITAT THE FRESHIE CHEMIST Under a spreading line of talk. The Freshman chemist stands; The chap a “Mighty ' flunk is he, With white and trembling hands, And the drawings of his notebook stuff Are wrong as Villa’s bands. ESSAY ON NOTHING NOTHING is an indefinite number of large tubs full of not anything, sometimes surrounded by seventeen thousand square yards of something less than Nothing, sometimes maybe, by a Hart-Schaffner-Marx suit of clothes, who knows? (It takes a diabolical sort of ingenuity to describe this subject, and that is or is not the reason you can or cannot read this vacillating descrip- tion.) NOTHING is sometimes used as currency to pay debts with, both in uncivilized and so-called civilized domains. When this is true, there are no such things as gifts for they are merely things given for Nothing! It seems that there is about to be an invasion of the realms of dress and style by Nothing, for the ladies are wearing less and less clothes each year! Perhaps this is a subtle deception, but at any rate, Infinity will be so nearly reached that the term will no longer be an unknown quantity. Then, this little word will cause more destruction to the human race than any word that has ever preceded it; men will fall off high cliffs on account of Nothing; commit suicide for Nothing; go blind on account of it; and get rich and worthless because of it! Woman will pawn her husband’s precious shaving mug to buy an evening gown. Taken as a whole, however, Nothing is more copious than all the things of worldly existence. Just think of the stuff that lies between Saturn and Neptune! Now, Star Gazers and Moonlight Patients are reluctant to admit of its presence, although they gaze right through it to see if the moon has got its eyes on them. The trouble is, like midnight, it is too large for them to notice it. After all, if you are not impressed with Nothing, the sublimity, gran- deur and reality of it, this essay is a failure. A Cat Episode (Being the lurid dream of a Freshman the night after the Mississippi A. M. game) The back-yard was lit by the light of the moon; The weather was cold and the night opportune For a dance of delight, though the frost rimmed the moon, Yet hearts that are fond make the winter time June. Maria was robed in a rich sable coat, And softly she warbled each passionate note Of a song full of heartache, so bitter and deep That it roused all her masculine friends from their sleep. Sir Tom of the hayloft, quite up to his nose, Was buried in hay when the love chant arose. And Sir Dick of the kitchen sprang up in surprise From dreaming of beefsteak, pork chops and pies. The Lord of the Hayloft, a strong agile lover, Ran out from the hay to the fence and leaped over. But Dick of the Kitchen as quick as a flash Had reached his Maria and made a big “mash.” And Maria had sworn to forever be true, When the Lord of the Hayloft sprang forth into view, With his whiskers all twisted and splendid until He looked like the spirit of Emperor Bill. Sir Thomas exclaimed, wild with rage and confusion, “Maria, what means this accursed intrusion?” Sir Richard replied with a calm, lordly air, “A coward and a sluggard can ne’er win the fair.” Then quick as a flash of the boreal light. They rushed to a clinch in the grip o’ the fight. And each voice, once like the twitter of birds, Was hoarse with the yelling of naughty cat words. For worse than the Kilkenny cats, known to fame, Each ate the other and left but his name; Poor heroes, together, no more will they fight— And another cat sings with Maria tonight. 336 Who’s Whose “Nancy” and “Tubby” just happened to be standing this way when the staff photographer in search of familiar landmarks, discovered them. Not that (hey minded being snapped. Oh my, no! They’re used to it. But if you ever again hear the old adage, “Nobody loves a fat man,” don’t you believe it—“Nancy” does! It’s really a pity to see a sweet young thing like “Lavinia” begin to “specialize” so early in the game. Bart is evidently as good a politician along that line as he is in class affairs, for he is ex-president of ’16 and he surely presides over a certain Freshman’s affec- tions. Did you ever see these two young persons together before? Of course not! However, just to be differ- ent, we took their pictures. “Fay and Amy” really do not gaze at each other thusly—all the time. Only when they are together. The next time you run in on them in the Patt Hall parlor, have a heart, and GET OUT! They’re little but they’re loud! “Jimmy” tackled “Campustry” with the same energy he used in foot- ball and knocked out his rival (even if his name was Jimmy, too, and he was six feet tall, besides). The next time you see a vest-pocket edition of a very interested couple strolling on the campus, remember this picture and label ’em “Jimmy” and “Carrie Lee.” Ah’ Where have you seen these faces before? Ask us something hard. For four eventful years, “Ella Mae” and “Williams” have synchronously adorned every dance, hop, game and chapel hour of State University. Were the cannon to depart from our midst we could not miss it more than the sight of this well-known pair. 337 My Fir l Freshman Year (This poem was originally turned in to a Second Flour English class on a sheet of Civil Engineer- ing paper and graded “C.” “Meter not very good was written on the margin. These and the name were erased, or thought to be erased, and MAILED to us. Evidently, he doesn't want his name known, so we won’t tell you who he is.) (1) When I get up in the morning The first thing that crosses my mind Is the thoughts of that chemistry lecture, Or some laboratory notes behind. (2) I have that miserable feeling, Which has a dozen names more or less, But if asked for the appropriate title I would call it sheer laziness. (3) I climb out of my bed at half past four And light the gas 'n a hurry Then draw a chair to a table near by And begin to bone on my Algebra. (4) About the time I gel settled to work My room-mate begins to snore Till I would like to take him by the nape of the neck And shake him out onto the floor. (5) 1 have another thought that beats this a block When it comes to executing this motion. For I would get a lift from the tip of his toe That would jar my whole generation. (6) You can pinch him and kick him with all your might And shake him till you are most worn out, Fie will roll over and groan as if to say: There’s not a thing doing what you are thinking about. (7) If it were that two sounds produce silence I d build a railway under his bed, On this I would place a freight train, Then I could study as if he were dead. (8) About half past seven I hear the landlady's voice, Get up children while the breakfast is warm. Then I hear that familiar ding-a-Iing-a-ling What, is that? Or nothing, just a false alarm. (Robert Shakefellow Longspere was written here and scratched out.) (9) What sins have I committed on earth O Lord! That I must bear such tortures of mind. Till I have nothing left for which to live Except the girl I left behind. A. J. R., '16. 338 Apologia Your pardon, my friend, if these lines do offend, Your pardon a thousand times o’er; The years we trust, the pangs will remove— And we promise we’ll do so no more. First Notice. To all those who have any kick coming (we trust this is not taken liter- ally), or who hope to inflict bodily injuries upon the Editor because “it wasn’t in last year’s book” or because “I never get that way” or because “I very sel- dom go with her anyway,” we wish to disclaim all responsibility as the Staff is to be held responsible. (Signed) The Editor. Second Notice The Kentuckian Staff wishes to take this space to inform all those who are under the misapprehension that they are responsible for the following pleasan- tries to please remember that the “Ouch” Editor is to be the recipient of all “language to provoke assault.” This young man is red-headed -and lives at 2 10 Arlington Avenue—more than this we refuse to make public. (Signed) The Staff. Final Notice For the pert references in this section, the rest of the Staff wants to blame us, but we want it plainly understood that we are not to blame. Tell all your troubles to the Editor-in-Chief—he’s the man behind the gun, anyway. (Signed) “Ouch” Editor. N. B.—Wait just one more day—we have our trunk packed and our ticket bought. If you think you can write better articles than we have in this book, write them here. Appreciation The Staff wishes to take this space to express their gratitude to the many persons who have contributed their time and talents toward the success of the book. We are especially grateful to: Dr. John J. Tigert, Prof. L. E. Nollau, J. Owen Reynolds, Miss Re- becca Smith, C. E. McCormick, J. F. Corn, the Journalism Department, Mr. J. B. Lyons, and to the many others who have, by their contributions and en- couragement, “helped us onward with our load.” A La t Word It is said by authorities (not State students of course), that tobacco and whiskey, two products in which Kentucky leads the world, improve with age. So it is with a college Annual. When weary and scarred by Life’s battles, may the pages of the years be turned back by the leafing of these pages, and the “Old State Grad” be again transformed in spirit to the happy years spent between the vine-clad walls, and beneath the maples of the University. And may his spirit brighten as does the Blue Grass sod in the Springtime. We have the same feeling as when the waltz-dream of the dance lilts into the strains of “Home, Sweet Home”—and we, the class of 1915, hate to leave! But let the music stop, the curtain fall and the lights die out forever on the class of 1915 as undergraduates. The last vision of it all will be hidden in a mist—the mist of our tears! “When Time who steals our cares away. Shall steal our pleasures, too. The memories of these days shall live And half our joys renew.” 346 4. “George R.” holds back Freshie mob in Armory. Reinforcements of Sophs and Juniors pass “ I he Gate.” 15. Siege continued.
