I HI:. RUBY. In its pro tuction no pains were sirred to maintain the standard set by the e litors in years past. It is hoped that this budget of miscellaneous matter will serve its full purpose, Ex-members of the class have rendered no little assistance. Without the help of many liberal advertisers the financial part of the work would have failed. May they receive due patronage through the columns of Tl IE RUBY. United class effort was stronger here than in any other undertaking. II the book proves a success, the credit is due to the class as a whole and not to a few individual members, even though there was a distinct editorial staff. Trusting THE Rl BY will be received in the proper spirit, it is sent forth on ils mission. iLDIIOR-IN-CMItP 6 AM Mu XU XJ,l4r.in.t) nf £ Ort G xxi - - X • •!• !% CAr uJf i- w, y'}’ A' V ii Vnv ' 3 h. i Sw - Arf.lt - S s X.

It was in September, 1903, when our ckt's first came together. Many of the members cattle fresh from the rural districts, and you can imagine what stout, robust fellows we were. Days of peacefulness and serenity prevailed. Me had a smooth sea to sail on until the title of the Class of ! •; struck us; this turned our ship a little, but we sailed on to the end of our Freshman year. The second year brought some new faces among our number, while a few of the old familiar ones had disappeared. There were many deeds in our Sophomore year, some which we might well boast of. others we wish were forgotten. Wc marched on. a strongly united body, into the third year's work. Having passed to the station of upper classmen, we put aside our pugilistic tendencies and became advisers instead i doors. From this time we led a more strenuous life: new battles presented themselves. Many of us were able to overcome the grave difficulties, while titers, although few in number, being weighed in the balance, were found wanting. The end of our college days is rapidly approaching. It is necessary that we prove ourselves worthy of the honor that is soon to Ik- bestowed upon us. In a few days the place so dear to each one of us will have almost faded from our memory, and we will have stepped out and tasted of life's realities. We have some things to regret, but many more things the recollection of which shall live forever in the hearts of the individual members. Me have enjoyed hours of profitable social intercourse with one another. Me have received much valuable information front our professors, but the idea that soon we must become our own instructors i difficult to conceive. M'e have in our class representatives for nearly every profession in life. M e hope each one will succeed in his vocation. and look hack u| on those dear, dead days beyond recall with fondest memories and pleasing recollections, still cherishing those lofty ideals wc set up as Freshmen, and striving harder than ever before to effect tltcir complete realization. The many other members of our class, those who have embarked upon the perilous sea of matrimony, those who have taken shelter behind other walls of learning, those who have chosen to follow in the march of industrial progress, we cannot hut wish them success. May they never forget their old classmates at LTsinus. May they hold dear the remembrances of the associations formed there; may they live usefully ami happily, being an honor to the class to which they once belonged. Our college days are over, and tints closes the history of the class. As the sun. scattering the mists of morn, trium phantlv finishes his course and leaves the scenes of his daily lal ors on the approach of evening's dew, just so wc relinquish the scenes of our college life. 14 Historian'.

JJ Junior Class History HKX tlu tn climbed slowly over the hills of Collegovillc one bright (lay in Sep’.cml ci, u X|. there was born t L'rsimis College a class. Yes! No other than of the invincible tqioS’s. When, on that memorable morning, our veil pealed forth across the campus, surely no jxirson could have expected anything but success from our sturdy band of youth, and success indeed was our lot. Comjxiscd of twenty-four small but mighty members, eight of whom were girls and the remaining sixteen hoys, we met the wise and honorable ( ?) “Sophs. Our shrewdness and diplomacy baffled them during the entire, year. Of course, the Sophs, tirst of all. had to make known their rules to ns children by putting posters over the town, but by some mysterious hand these were easily removed before the paste could dry. and consequently the rules could not he obeyed. From that time on there was naught for us hut clear sailing. The first two months passed by without the least 'ign of disturbance, although the Soph “Vigilance Committee” was constantly prowling the campus in ex| ectalioii of some sly movement. But you know the tmc |Kctcd always happens, and true enough the worst unexpected of all anticipations happened on the tglh of December, when this “foxy little hand mysteriously disappeared from the classic walls of college and found their way. one by one. to the Hamilton House in Norristown. Oh: the fond recollection of that joyous evening time has not the power to tell. But events similar to this were so common in these early years that time and 'pace do not allow me to record them in this brief history, so 1 shall pass on to the spring of this year of lucky greenness. Indeed, this history would lie most incomplete without the event that occurred one balmy day in May. All the college was in the height of excitement. At three o'clock that very afternoon the annual baseball game was to be played between the “Sophs and those “Little Grecnics. Well' the story of the game is slum; that is. the time it took for those Little Grccnies to walk away crowned with victory hv an overwhelming score of 8 to _■ that really it is scarcely worth my while to write it here. But I am sorry to say that the game still lingers bitterly in the minds of some of those overconfident. wOuld-bc heroes. With this remarkable record tor the first year in college, we next passed into a more dignified stale, becoming wise and prudent Sophomores. The events of our second year were no less important than those of the preceding year. The only disaster that befell this little duster of friends was the departure of six of its staunch members, namely. Harry Boggs. Kdna Boston, Harold Brvner. George Mitchell. Catharine Robison and Lottie Rogers. However, it seemed that in all prosperity and calamity we were just the same, and this year was | os$ihlv more successful titan the first. The time was not spent in raising a row ourselves, hut simply pacifying those little Kreshies.” who were under our care, and indeed a good father we were to that horde of infants. Once they even became so lx !d as to try and paint their flashing colors around the buildings. As our duty compelled us—nothing else—we immediately took their paint from them and placed them in a nice little house along the IYrkiomcn, in order that the Dean might not scold them at chapel the next morning for being y out m late the night before. This was the only disagreeable parental duty we had to perform. It taught them how children should act. Thc gave up all their childish follies and decided to postpone their banquet to some indefinite time. Peace and fellowship reigned through the long weary days of winter. We studied hard, attended our classes regularly, performed our duties well in the societies and in general our course was as clear and bright as anyone could expect. However, these little children again broke into our solitude ami challenged us to a game of baseball. The same foolish idea scented to have crept into their heads that had so completely upset the brains ot tltcir colleagues the gallant 1907 s. It was onlt necessary for us to teach these youngsters one more lesson. To think of nothing else to conquer, and that these nimble forms must bear the torture, was almost more than we could bear. But it was our duty to impart to the youngsters the ways of the world. The game was quite interesting to the spectators, and when the dust clouds slowly floated away, there at the helm stood )ld 1908 with another scalp hanging to her belt. From these frivolous years we jsass into the stage of serious Juniors. But. alas! time, the destroyer of all nations, has again robbed us of four more of our gallant members, the guilty ones this time being I.ida Kbhert. Kdward Hamnic. l-'sthcr Jackson and Klizaheth Ycrfccs. This leaves hut fourteen of us to plod our way for our Alma Mater. Sail to relate, our lunior year has been entirely devoid of great events, but we still maintain our high position in all phases of college life. We arc well represented in both literary societies, and csjKcially the society of Olcvian. Our athletes are few. but good, and I lest of all, we arc known for effort and ability in the classroom. Here we compare quite favorably with our prede cessors. and as to our future, who could predict anything but success?

Since that time he ha l� een pushing right on through college, winning for himself various distinctions. He is fond of working—the professors. He has not stood at the head of hi' class, but this only show s that he ts not developing himself on one side only; for iu-'tcad of throwing away his time cramming all the details of his texts, he hastily gleans the general idea and devotes the remainder of his time to outside work, such as music, church work, lodge work, social work and scientific research That he is consistently developed is shown by an enumeration of his many hobbies : Athletics, including football, baseball, tennis and gymnasium: sports, including Itorscback riding, skating, hunting and going to Pottstown: logic, especially the fallacy of the ambiguous term; biology (Herman His last but most beloved hobby is chemistry, for which he took a strange liking in his Freshman year.

IN tin- last part of the eighties the subject of this sketch made his first apjxarancc in a little village bearing the very rustic appellation i Spring House. ’litis village is situated in what is known to its own inhabitants as the “garden spot « f Pennsylvania. but as this very appropriate ( ?) name is known only to them, it may be better to call it simply Montgomery County. At the age of two, Harvey moved from the place of his birth and took up his abode on a large farm a short distance from Centre Square. Pennsylvania, where he has been living ever since Danny, for that is his nickname around college, obtained bis early educate n in the public schools of Whitp.iin Township Here he gained quite a reputation as a scholar, and after graduating from the High Scliocl with first honors in the spring of 1903. he decided to take up a college course in preference to a business course. The fall of 1903 found him hard at work-in the I’rsinus Academy, and the next spring saw him ready tor college with the highest standard of scholarship to his credit. He entered the Freshman class the next fall with the idea of becoming a great mathematician, and so became a member of the I.atin-Mathematical Group. At the end of Ills Sophomore year, however, he became aware of the fact that mathematics was not what it seemed to bo. and changed his group and bis ambitions. He now .‘hopes to become a doctor and some day manufacture a panacea that will cure all human ills. Harvey has never had many love affairs: that is. if lie had tltey are mostly unknown to his college friends. It has lieen reported, however, that when lie started out in company in his native village that he receive ’ such a had scare that he only ventures out into society now at intervals that arc few and far between. The story goes that after lie had escorted a certain young lad to her home that he was met at the door by her father, and becoming frightened t' 'k to bis heels and made his escape, loosing hi' rubbers in the muddy hack lane and arriving at home in a rather deplorable condition. The veracity of this story is somewhat to be doubted, but it may lie taken as a possible hypothesis for Harvey’s aversion to society. Although “ Danny ' does not seem to lie much interested in the co-eds. he belongs to many of the college organizations. He is an ardent member of Schaff. and has been initiated into the mysteries of the Charmidean Club, the only social organization at I’rsimis Besides, lie stands well in bis class, and we can only predict a bright and prosperous future for him. v RHEA EDNA DURYEA Hobby: Row(c)ing.

His favorite course is “Dcutch Biology, into which lie delves with the utmost industry in search of hidden truths. He spends much time with the translation 1 ?). and his study is frequently mtcrs| erscd with exclamations of delight. Still another ph ase of this illustrious character's life which dare not be forgotten is his social career. He is indeed a lion in society. Here he truly shines like the tifty-seven kinds. The results of football are clearly seen. His head has become so hardened in practice that it nr longer shows the effects of ' hutting in. Baseball has also lent a helping hand in teaching him how to make “strikes. Between liis sleep, study and attention to social functions no time remains. It is said that a wagon will be used to earn the college mail, so great is his correspondence.

Horn in Williamstnwn, New Jersey, he lived there four years, and then moved to Swedcsboro in the same State. After shifting around over his native State for a number of years, he migrated and settled at Royers ford in 1891. where he has lived ever since. The first school lie attended was at Clayton. New Jersey. He was a diligent student, and took very much interest in games and sp rts. Wherever he attended school he always became popular as an Olympianitc. The Central Y M C. A. of Philadelphia offered excellent opportunities for calis thenics,and this active youth was not slow in taking up the work, lie soon became a faithful student under the famous director . J. Herman. In the fall of 1902 this mass of herculean strength arrived at Ursinus Academy to prepare for college and direct the work in the gymnasium. His strong personality soon won for him the resjHXl of all the boys, ai d they honored him with the title of ''Dewey. As to personal characteristics tins title might lx- properly applied, but certainly the subject itself admires the qualities of the hero of the “Little ISig Horn far more than the noble deeds of Admiral Dewey. His quiet, unassuming air indicates a sign of indifference, but this is purely misleading. He is not afraid to discuss any live question, whether it he in Greek, economics, love or philanthropy. No matter what differences y ou may have with him. you can never tell when you have him down, for ii can stand on either end. Why it is he does not take to the pipe or cigar ette we cannot understand. Without a doubt hi' environment ought to show its intluence before so long. Notwithstanding the fact that he is a classical student ami a prospective candidate for the ministry, he is a firm believer in evolution. He argues that man is simply a highly developed species of tlx monkey or ape family hence the expressions dumb ape and monkey shines.-' “In a lady 's fancy Easter bonnet, he claims, we have nothing more than the result of a scries of processes of the evolution of a butterfly. When our co-cds took up the game of 1 askct-ha!l, Dewey w as engaged as head coach. After much effort he succeeded in putting out a team that made a fine showing for Ursinus.

Here it was that I«c-i«ly s|M-nt his childhood days, in the presence of tht hills, woods and valleys. Whether he was inspired with his sin cere respect tor nature at this time is not for the biographer to say. t the pr .jier age he was sent to the Mourning Glen public school to receive his first insight into the rudiments of learning. There is nothing sensational within the writer's knowledge that merits particular emphasis except that he diligently pursued Ins required studies. Now he was competent enough to teach scIkk'I in his native town, where he disseminated ideas of profound depth to his pupils When the school terms ended, in each successive spring, we find him taking courses at IVrkiomen Seminary. West Chester Normal School and I’rsinus Academy until 1904. when he entered 1'r.sinus as a Freshman. Although I.cidy lias not been captivated by any fair maid at Crsinus. with all his courtesies and attentiveness, there is.no doubt.a substantial reason for him to he so conservative in resjK-ct to bis affections It is not necessary for me to bring any proof in rcsjxrct to this matter, but it is clear when a letter of sixteen pages, as is seen in bis possession in ch� |H‘1 some times, would easily suggest the reason for that broad, thoughtful smile which annihilates all traces of melancholy. In other social spheres he is active. csi� ecially in the Zwinglian Literary Society and the Charmidean Club. In both of those organisations I.cidy has been earnestly at work developing his oratorical ability, which bids fair to claim for him in some remote period a conspicuous place in the public light. Now for his favorite pastime, which i baseball. Mthougli lie is small in stature he is able to judge the elusive sphere with accuracy when a swift ball is hit towards shortstop. I.eidv seems to possess an innate ability for business, lie lias been successful in several enterprises These demonstrations have thrust upon his shoulders the |H sition of Husiuess Manager of the Ruby, which task lie is thuroughlv competent to jjerform. One tiling in his favor is the amount of enthusiasm which he displays. He lias the qualifications and the ingenuity for a noble vocation. We arc sure that lie will lead his constituents in the path of righteousness with his persuasive exhortations. ■o JOHN BROOKE PA 1ST I would | wliat I pica-am I, and doing wliat I pleased I should have inv will, and having my will I should be contented. —Ccnvuirs. TIIK subject of this sketch was introduced to the world some time during the ‘80 s at Cornwells, a small station situated on the main line of the Pennsylvania Railroad near Philadelphia. Ills early years were taken up in bagging school and playing baseball. In fact, his athletic propensities were of such a nature that lie would often bag his meals, and as a result, when lie was placed in the tender care of L'rsinus Academy, in the fall of ujoz. he represented the munificent total of one hundred and twenty live pounds avoirdupois. However. while the llesh was weak the spirit was strong, and he soon became recognized as a coming star in athletics. The fall of 1903 found him at George School. Soon, however, the Faculty there regarded him as only a visitor, ami finally his visits became so few and far between that it was deemed advisable and ex| odient by his elders to send him hack to L'rsinus Academy, from which place lie entered college in the fall of 1901 John made the 'Varsity baseball team while still a Prep. and from Ins diminutive size soon became known as Peanut and “Kid. The next year were added such names as Nig. Indian and Gold Dust Twin. Finally, in the election of 1906. he acquired the dignified title of captain for the 1907 team. quarterback on the ‘Varsity football team he lias made the reputation of being one of tltc Inst l'rsinus ever had. In addition to these honors. Peanut captained the tennis championship of the college in 1905. He was also elected vice-president of his class in his Freshman year and captain of the class baseball team. In the cla-s-room. although not such a 'tar a on the athletic field. John is recognized as a good, steady student. He is always ready to argue a question to the last ditch, and then some.

The records of his birth are thought to have been destroyed by the Confederates after the defeat at Gettysburg. Traditi' n has it. however, that lie was born in the early eighties on a farm in the southern part of dams County. Pennsylvania. The proximity to nature furnished hint with many of his high ideals and lofty aspirations. Here he learned to handle horses with x� much agility that, whet lie r a literal or an interlinear, they never balked or refused to pull.

When I come to [ ondcr over it and think of his vicissitudes, the last seems beyond all loubt the most suitable. I suppose we arc compelled to allow Cupid t« adopt him as his own. Harry William Snyder was born in that most picturesque Dutch city of Reading, lie spent but a few of his early years there, when, t afford his mother some peace, she packed him off to Girard College in the City of Brotherly Love. Here we find him a boy among boys, alway s up to some mischief and always sliding out of some mischief without causing the slightest suspicion. Nearly nine years of his ever changing life was spent in that monotonous place, hut those nine years were not sjk-iu in vain, for when he entered I'rsinus Academy , in tin- spring of 1901. it was plainly seen that Ik- had received no mean education and was amply prepared to pursue a college course. Kntcring in the spring, as he did. baseball, of course, was his first attraction. He played on the scrubs but a short time when he was given a position on the 'Varsity, ami that position has been his ever since except when one of his weird fancies came over him and he would leave college for a month nr two. Oh! dear reader, you must not be surprised at this, for he would just as s� x n pack up some night and leave for home as to spend an evening with some fair co-ed. 11 the diamond he was a star. Many a time, in some close and exciting game, this Reading satellite, known as Suit . would hurst forth, and in the twinkling of an eye defeat would turn into victory. But if he didn't want to play hall or was angry about something, his was a hard ease to handle. hie might as well have tried to force a mule across a ditch to make even the slightest impression on this piece of set-will. Baseball, however, was not his only athletic achievement. On the hot-ball field one could often set- this ik-ct-footcl little end (lodging, twisting and squirming down the field and always working hard for his team. But here. too. his fickle passions got tin- better of him, and now instead of playing football he spends his time coaching the girls in basket-ball. I wonder why? Well, just wait. Most of his time is taken up with some fair Olcvi-anite. Here lie has always reigned supreme. It is he who wears out the new furniture and Drumms” the piano so much. But we will forgive him for those trivial things, for is it not his volition? We prefer, however, not to neglect his better qualities. Good in society, good in bis classes and good to those who are good to him. we can expect nothing else than a bright and glorious future.

November 2. 1885. he s|H-nt most of hi' life on the farm. doing � !«! jobs, such a' driving the geese to the pasture, milking the pigeon' and chasing crmvs from the cornfields. Ili' father, seeing that lie was of mall value to him on the farm, hired him out to a Philadelphia grocer. Here he spent some time eating the profit. At the age of five he entered the district scho 1. in which he was taught nothing hut mathematics. Front the district school he entered the High School at (•rccncastlc. Hraduating from the High Sell l, lie took a c« nr slat Shippenshurg Normal. With his diploma under his arm. Ik- struck L’rsinus in the fall of nineteen hundred and four. How lie “struck” this joint has heen a mysterv. and will probably continue so to the end of time, but nevertheless Ik- got here and entered the Freshman class. Anyone who could nave seen Steimy in Snyder's room the night In-fore ’lie lirst class scrap” would have surely regarded him as a marvelous prize-fighter. On account of his size and Herculean strength he was at once picked upon to lead the naughty-eight hoys in the oncoming fray. Hi- response to the summons ran thus, Waal—I—never fought much- but- I guess I can do it. The following morning when the struggle lagan, imagine the chagrin of the boys when their leader was not t he found. In the midst of the struggle. Steimy. with books under his arm. emerged from the Fast Wing on his way to class. The naughty-cight co-eds asked him why he did not enter the scrap. Steimy. with that awful expression on his face, responded: Ah -go on—and mind—ycr own business. and the leader went to class. The three years that he has spent here have worked a great change in “Steimy.” lie is now one of the most loyal members of our class. He held a number of offices and always did them honor, lie is a zealous Zwinglian. and always performs his duty. In debating Ik- is noted for his Napoleonic posture and his pointless jokes. He is a criblx-r. He was sired by such famous horses as Cicero. Virgil. Livy. Horace and Terence. “Steimy made his dehut on the diamond in that memorable game against the nineteen ten team. Ilis long hit and spectacular catch saved the day for his class. He has marvelously shined in society about the college. Steimy is a diligent student, and has won honors wherever he attended school, and from his logical reasoning he will also take honors here. After his graduation he expects to teach. 47 WILLIAM HOY STONER. Tliri-!MONT. MARYLAND, claims the distinction of 'icing the first home of that groat personage. W illiam Hoy Stoner. Hoy. as he i-known, is a minister s son and i' named for Dr. Hoy. the great missionary. a fitting name for a loyal namesake. He is his mother's pet and Ins father's pride, and these twenty years' life for him have been frolicsome and free. Kducation first appealed to him in the public schools of Kalamazoo Comity, Michigan, in the town of Fulton. Little I h decided that he wanted to see his grandnioni. and the family moved east to a village in Ferry County. Here Hoy continued his education, and was laying the foundation for his future greatness. His next ilii was to C d-legeville. where he entered the Collcgeville High School. Here his | oclic genius and his evil genii early began to manifest themselves, the latter causing a quarrel between him and his schoolmaster. I'rsinns eademy saw chance of greatness in the young aspirant, and he was admitted into that institution. All went well and the lad was progressing in his studies, working earnestly in the cause of higher education he had not yet learned to work the professors. But something terrible happened' The small] epidemic broke out and I'rsinns passed the vaccination law. Fop and Mom didn't believe in vaccinating the tender youth, and he was given a long vacation. The epidemic jKisscd and I !oy was admitted without the brand. He won the scholarship and became a verdant Freshman. Hitherto. Hoy was the most bashful of boys, (oris, however charming and sweet, had no attraction for him. But what a change! Now it is that every girl, however free from charm and grace, attracts his most ardent attention. Bashful? No! He has overcome that dreadful fault. He is now a ladies' man in so great a degree that he is fast liecoming a martyr to the cause. He himself claims an introduction to every girl within a radius of ten miles, and to have escorted all of these home who would permit his company. This accounts for late hours and drowsy recitations. Hoy is quite a musician.and his comet is his key to society, to such as even his handsome face would not permit him. At school he is brightest when he is bluffing, which means that he is generally bright. He is quite a mathematician, in which subject he is considered an authority. He expects some dav to become William Hoy Stoner. M.D.. ami we wish him abundant success in his chosen profession, as well as in his musical aspirations, and. lastly, in a goodly choice from among his many lady admirers. 49 I:VA MAY THOMPSON EVA MAY THOMPSON’ was !x rn in Northampton County. Pennsylvania. During her early life she went to Pridgewater. Ya.. where she spent the greater part of her childhood. Having an intense desire for her native State, she returned to it after a few years and settled m Montgomery County. Her first experience in education was in tile public schools at Skippack. Several years later we find her in the Power Providence schools, where she graduated with honors in 1902. Always In-ing anxious for hard study, she gave vent to her desire by entering I'rsinus Academy the same year. After two more years of earnest effort her name was entered upon the record of fame with the ‘oN's. The class has no one who is more prompt in literary undertakings. This George ftliot of the college is always on time with work that is of the finest order. Writing stories and poetry is a pleasant pastime. Not only is she much given to imaginative fancy, hut also to exposition and argumentation. While yet in her Freshman year she figured prominently in the Prize Debate. The Schaff Society is proud of a member with such remarkable talent. She is also not to Ik. found on the side line in social circles. P.eing the daughter of a minister. Kva seems to cherish quite a desire for the social side of the profession. When the balmy days of spring ap| ear this lassie delights to romp over the hills and fields and along the banks of the beautiful Pcrkiomen. In a quiet recluse she may often Ik- seen writing some |K em. story, prophecy or other piece of literature. The rippling waters and singing birds afford ln-r the greatest charm. While our subject under discussion is a true believer in literary education. she is not wholly indifferent to the more practical accomplishments. Site is a famous cook, and does all in her power to promote the cause of domestic science. We have never heard her say much about co education, but her views 011 woman suffrage are clear and concise. Man for politics and woman for the home is the way she puts it. With most of the co-eds. the Modern Language Group claims this character as one of its rare gems. She likes (k-rmaii best of all her studies. As a member of the Weekly Staff she renders a faithful service to that worthy and aggressive journal. We can see nothing else than a bright future in store for her. and hope that she may put out many volumes of literature and prove herself a bright star for her Alma Mater. ■w JOHN ELLIS TOBIAS Du’mix COl'XTV, I'EXXSYLVAXIA. lias been famed for uroat men. It lias produced men of groat prowess and reputation, and anion;' tliom we might place J. Ellis Tobias Toby says lie wasn’t horn, lie just happened. He lias been placed among tin- children of misfortune, and has been knocked about mam small towns, such as Sha-niokin, Gratz and Tremont. He received most of his elementary education m the public scliools of Scl� u Ikill County, and in the spring of 1903 he •is graduated from Tremont iligli School with valedictory honors. A mail thus favored must needs go to college. Where t go was the first important question. I;ale or Dame Fortune decreed that lie should try his luck at ITsinus. He entered I'rsinus Academy in the fall oi 1903, and in the fall of 1904 he entered I'rsinus College with the naught eights. hroin chiklhooil Toby has been of a roving disposition, and indeed tried to imitate the childish deeds of famous men. His hero was George Washington. One day he thought he would play George, and consequently took his hatchet and began to chop down trees. It was not a cherry tree that lie chopped, but his knee. This sad accident occurred at the age of thirteen I Mood poison set in. and after several operations, which endangered his life, he was left a cripple. Toby ha- always been an ardent admirer of athletics, anil, true to his Pennsylvania Dutch origin, set his mind on participating in some s|K rt. He is fond of gunning, fishing and baseball, and in the latter he has become quite an adept in that sjiort. ()w ing to his physical disability lie practiced catching, and has become very proficient. lie caught on the second baseball team for several years, anil in the season of 1906 played four games on the Varsity. He also takes an active interest in football, and was manager of the team of 1906. One of his favorite pastimes is card playing. He has developed into a shark, having haas im pfefTcr” and “ pinochle as his hobbies. He enjoys mulling I letter than smoking a pi| c of miner's extra, beggars' delight or hard to get. as it i% sometimes called, and playing Suits and Brook after meals. As a student in college he lias always been able to keep his head at the high water mark. German. French and English have no terrors for him. but Latin has always fared miserable at his hands. As we can only judge the future by the past, wc predict iwhiner ' • success for this sturdy young coal miner. GEORGE WOLFF DO not form your opinion of this boy V character when you see the name, lor ln� lis|x sitioii i far from that of a wolf, George. ' as Itc is called In the boys, made In advent into this world m New Oxford. Pennsylvania, where hi fathci was engaged in pastoral duties. When he was but a few years old his parents removed to Uluc He'll. Pennsylvania. It was in the public schools at this place that Ik- received his tirst educational training and became inspired with a zeal for a higher educa lion At the close of his Junior year in the township High School, his father decided to send him to college. So the next fall George started in at L’r-sinns as a Fourth Yeai Prep. Hi' father, fearing tluit his little boy would become homesick, thought it best for him to come home every night Thus it was that George journeyed hack and forth from scliool, a distance of alxmt fourteen miles, for a year and a half. The winter of the second year. Irowcvcr. was so severe that he was compelled to stay at college, and. to the amazement of Ins father, he wanted to stay there the whole term. Here nuk'd his role as a day student. George has taken an active part in all college work. an athlete he has gained quite a reputation, lie has become very skillful in handling the racquet, hut commands distinction as a baseball player. He always was ambitious to be a ball player. Yc arc told that when a little schoolboy lie could be seen oil the school yard at every inter mission with a glove on his hand, lie was so enthusiastic over tlic game, we are tokl. that he would play catch while going to and from school. His efforts have not l ccn in vain, for last year he won the position of centre fielder on the scrub team. Although not much of a slugger, he won fame as a fly catcher. He played in both inter-class games, ami was an important factor in the victories. He is a diligent student. He is fond of all his studies, especially so of French and “Dutch” Biology. He Irelieves in making good use of his time while at college ami places studying next to athletics and cards. In the social functions at tTsimis, George has taken quite an active part He is a loyal member of SchaiT Societv ami the Charmidcan Club, and lias Irceii elected to a jrosition on the Weekly Staff. Although an admirer of the co-ed he has not yet joined the rank of the regular . He savs that it is all right to Ire a regular, hut it i hard oil the (rocket-book. He is very ambitious to learn dancing, after which he expect' to make his debut into -Society. We wish him the best success in his love affairs as yvcll as in his chosen profession, which i medicine.

For some unaccountahle reason they had wandered out of their regular orliit—let us ho] e not fallen and were no longer visible. Tlie absence of these luininaries. many of them brilliant, naturally eclipsed our splendor and forcbc lcd gloomy prospects. Hut our course was not stopped, nor was the harmony marred. We were still a whole, hut with fewer units. t the same time came a large number of human forms enameled with a sickle green—-Freshmen, ideal hearers of the name. They greatly ouinumhcrcd us, hut in relative strength, man for man. they were not . iall all rcmcmlKT the first scrap'' occasioned by our posters with two or three zealous Frcshics. We shall not soon forget how. in the series of skirmishes, extending from the hoilcr house t Fetter dfs barn, lir-t one was on top. then the otlier. until finally, numbers alone overwhelming u , we die.’, fighting t the last. When it came to smearing their numerals around the place, the patriotic Frcshics thought their real class color too gaudy, and decorated the premises very appropriately with a sickly green. In passing, we must record the baseball game of our Freshman year, when we had 'o8 as our opponent . Although they had several phcnoms on their side we were a match for their prowess, and in a vers pretty game played them almost to a standstill. It was inspiring to see how ’07 stood In us. when their effective ” )on-.-pa-l� ooin-pa sounded, as it were, the death knell of the pinning slab artist and nearly turned the tide of vietor . It has been our privilege t introduce several innovations into college life. We were the originators of tile inter-class basket-ball game, played bv the co-eds. Our girls proved to lx- stars, and overwhelmingly defeated their rivals. All honor to our doughty little captain and her valiant teammates. Again, we instituted a feature that has been missing for a number of years, namely, the inter-class football game. This venture did not prove so successful. We were seriously handicapped. From twelve available men we were compelled to pick a team of eleven, and t. • fit and drill every man to lii | osition was no light task. We did our Ijesl. and it was amazing that we succeeded as well as we did We proved our valor, but our best was not good enough. Throughout the winter our life flowed along in the ordinary, uneventful strain until we came to the mid-wars.” Here we suffered another blow, when three of our number left ns and sought pastures new. thus diminishing our alreadv small number of faithful members. During the long hibernal months several of the masculine pcndcr took some astronomical work as a side issue. O11 one occasion it became their good fortune to w itness a lunar eclipse on skates. The report of their observation has not yet been given to the department of science. We alone can solve the myslci'vof the Undue «|uadui| ed in I loch der Kaiser's room, etc., etc. As underclassmen we have experienced so much real pleasure that we are loath to say whether the bettor half of our college course i' that which is past or which still lies before 11s 5$ SOmOMORES—O-ASS OF IW 56 The Nineteen Nines VICTOR JAY ABEI..................................................... ................................

Representatives to this class had been sent from many comities of Pennsylvania, as well as from other States, to grace it by their presence.

Ursinus. l'rsinus. 1910. These were the words which Sounded in the ears of every one on that memorable morning of September 13th and ushered into the halls of l'rsinus the Class of 1910. In answer to that challenge the Sophs came slowly forward to meet the foe. and well it was that they did not place much confidence in themselves, for it would have soon l)cen beaten out of them. As it was. they soon realized that their days of ruling were over, and the only thing for them to do was to hand over their sceptre with as much good grace as possible. This they did. It was only under the cover of darkness that the posters so carefully prepared and distributed by the Sophs could survive: Wfore the morning sun could laugh at the attempted stealth of the Bluffers” the indignant hands of our Prosit men boys tore the challenges to atoms. The painting of the 1910 Class numerals all through the town did not occasion another inter-class contest, as was expected, but the Sophs simply allowed the ’10 to stand. Mthougli wc have had many “bloody encounters with them, wc have always Weir the victors, and they have retired from the world of action with crestfallen countenances. Our second victory was one gained at Conshohocken on November 27th. The occasion, a football game. Consho-hockcn High School trrst s L'rsinus PVeshmcn. Who won? The Freshmen, of course, by a score of -'8 to o. Did the Freshmen celebrate? Well. I guess. Two weeks later our class team met the Sophs on the gridiron. During the first half of the game neither team scored, and the result scented doubtful, Imt our forces were simply reserving their strength for a final struggle, and it was hut a short time until one of our players got possession of the ball, carried it over the line and gave us a touchdown. Thus the game went on until the score stood 12 to o. It is doubtful whether anyone ever saw such downcast faces as those of the “Sophs after the game. But the Freshmen had achieved the end they longed for and were happy. Were the Sophs fooled when we had our banquet? They certainly were. They were astonished at their own stupidity in not seeing us go. and when thc lcamerl the fact at luncheon time, they could do nothing but acknowledge that they were outwitted. 0 Historian’.

The lovs of Cap lain Faringer. Kcascy. Foltz and Harman by graduation, ami 1 LTfellir.gcr. Ziegler, Culver and Garcia, who did not return to school, left but a small nucleus around which to form a new team. It is almost ini|x ssible to compare the season of 1906 with that of former years. The change f rule' presented many peculiarities and new problems to be solved. W ith the new rules to I - mastered, and the heavy schedule that was played, we can then ask the question. W as the season a success That the team had an unfortunate season every one will admit, and that this was partially the team s which will not Ik- disputed by any who have a close relationship with the facts and understand the conditions of the situation. Was it the fault of tire coach? No! There were many other causes which alone can justify the failure. Nothing, no matter what it is. can Ik.- expected to remain in perfect shape and exist in a strong condition if not taken care of and repairs made when necessary. In former years little or no complaint was lodged concerning the training table, hut this factor and other points which help make a season a success were lacking. Consequently, the physical condition of the men suffered greatly Ix-cause there was no way nor incentive to keep the players in trick training. Mam of the old men not appearing for the preliminaries, the season presented a gloomy aspect v liich did not brighten when the new material was viewed. Of the new candidates. Iscnberg and Hoover were the only promising men. The second team of the former furnished enough material to till out the team with one available substitute. Former experience was lacking on the part of many men. and the difficult) of the new system made the problem very complex: however, the men gave promise of developing into a fast and an aggressive team. The first game with Williamson was lost by a goal from the field. The next game, with Lafayette, was a surprise to lT inus. hut considering the situation we were far outclassed. After the third game, with Muhlenberg, the prosj ects brightened for a short time, only to ho cast down hv the successive defeats which followed. Of these defeats the game against Dickinson was the only one in which L’rsimts showed w-liat she was really able to do against a heavy team. Although defeated. Irsinus may well he proud of the showing she made. Misfortunes and accidents contributed toward the remainder of the defeats. Let us dismiss the record of the season with as little censure as possible anil with as much praise as is allowable We look to the future to show the effects of this season's work. Captain Hllis. Heller, Alspach. Cook and Steward will he lost by graduation. With Captain-elect I lain. Roth. Paist. Snyder. Kersclmer. Abel. Ouav. Iscnberg and Hoover to form ;; nucleus, we predict a successful team can lx- formed The new style of play mastered, another year to think and meditate upon new plays, the addition of s ine new material. I rsinus will he able to turn out a team that will surpass the record of tin- season just closed. The game a- now p aved is almost universally voted to he far stqx-rior to the old line bucking game. Unite strength has given way to quickness and to the better judgment of the players. This will increase the number of available men from which I'rsinus has to draw her football material. A little more spirit and a more active interest on the part of the student body will do much to encourage the old as well as the new men who put on the togs of the gridiron.

The Baseball Season of 1906 RADITIOM tells us that college athletic teams arc Ixnmd to take a slump some time «luriii} a playing sea son. This may last only tor a week or two, or it may follow a team during an entire season. The Ur-sinns baseball team of 1906 had to contend with the latter, and when the season was ended, it was seen that the “Red and Black had been successful in winning only three of its scheduled games. V arious reason' may Ik.- given for the px.r showing of the team. We lost the services of three good players by graduation Price, catcher, Townsend, the hard-hitting pitcher and outfielder, and I’lace, another fielder. The two former had ca|Xained the teams of 1904 and 1904, and their presence on the team added much to the life t it. The Pony Battery gave invaluable aid in the coaching and developing of young players. For five years cx-Captain Price had done all the catching, no atteniion whatever having lieen paid to the development of one who would be able to take his place in later years. This undoubtedly was the undoing of the L’rsinus team. Fenton, the big guardian of the initial sack of the 1905 team, gave up playing shortly after the season had started. Snyder, the regular shortstop, did not return to college until the latter part of May. Lastly. Faringcr, the regular third baseman, was moved from hi position to till the one left vacant by Catcher Price. This left live positions to be filled with new men. The team was well equipped, having received new suits, as well as all other “baseball paraplromalia. For these we were indebted to the student body in general for the spirit which they all manifested in the Valentine Fete, thus enabling us to make such a purchase. Manager Foltz, by his untiring efforts, had arranged a hard schedule, which included games with nearly all of the well-known Kastern colleges, among them being Princeton, Lafayette. Ix-high. Fordham, Dickinson and the Carlisle In dians. The games which were won were those against Albright. Rutgers and Gettysburg. On account of the inclemency of the weather the Princeton management canceled that game, and the season did not open until April 7. when Albright was met and defeated on tire home grounds by a score of 9 to 2. Many new men were tried out in this game, and the predictions were that Ursinus would again have a fairly good team. With hardly any practice the team left on the annual Easter trip, and were defeated bv the well-seasoned and experienced teams of the Carlisle Indians, Mcrccrsburg. Gettysburg and Dickinson. These four defeats seemed to have a demoralizing effect upon the team, as well as upon the students, for upon our return we were “greeted with “knocks and roasts from all sides. The games against Lehigh ami the Carlisle Indians clearly showed that the team could play hall, for these were two as good games as the most enthusiastic rooter wishes to look at. In the Ixhigh game the score stood 2 too in our favor up to the fifth inning, and during this time not one “Brown and White player had reached first base. In the fatal fifth baseball luck went against us. and the game ended with the score 9 to 4 in favor of Ixdiigh. The personnel of the team was often changed (only through necessity, however), this of course being a serious drawback to the development of team-work. h'aringcr took Price's place back of the bat, ami. couriering that he wav inexperienced in the | o$ilion ami had only had a little amount of practice, lie did very well indeed. I'aist and Mabry did the pitching when not in the box. “1 Vaunt'' did stunts' around second base. In this position he showed clearly that he is as good a player as can be found on any college team at present. Koerper and Crnnkleton again liekl their positions in centre and left fields respectively. t fust base Fenton was rapidly developing into a good player, but unfortunately did not finish the season. After Snyder's return the heretofore weak spot at shortstop was again well taken care of. Of the new men, Kcrschncr was without a doubt the find of the season. He was given a thorough try out at third base and held the position to the end of the season. He is a good thrower, a fast man on the bases and a fair hitter, (larcia also proved invaluable as a general utility man. Of the other new men. Abel, ('dyer. Rcisncr and Roth all showed good form in the field, hut were weak at the bat. Captain I-'llis, of the football team, deserves much praise and credit for his faithful and conscientious work during the latter part of the season.

The last season showed an increased desire to make it a ix-rmaiicnt factor in their life. We were pleased with the interest manifested, es| eciall at the beginning of the season, and. to a fair degree, the maintenance of it. Altliough three of the ’ arsitv players failed t return t college, we had excellent material to choose from the second team of the previous ear. With this nucleus, and Thompson and Spangler. Ursinus developed a fair team. Our team did not do so well in defensive playing, as this was shown in the game with Schuylkill Seminary. I’rsinus had the ball in its territory the larger part of the time, and frequently prevented the opposing team from scoring. 1 he fact that our team was defeated clearly sots forth the lack of accurate goal shooting. This phase- is always emphasized at the start, and is of vital importance for a well-balanced team. However, we must attribute the development of our team to the fierce competition of the second team. We ho| e that next fall all the co-eds who are physically endowed will report, in order to develop a bcllei team than those of previous vears. 17 - Tennis Association Officers. President. DR. C. II.

ERNEST A. THOM ASON 119 Gym nasties YMN ASTICS has been defined as “motion without motive. Our civilization, grown so overmentalized, so fevcrously strenuous. so cxhaustingly nervous, takes very little care for gymnastics. Indeed, it does not encourage a just pro-poition in its lealm of work. This conception has led on to false standards of elegance and false ambitions of success. In this connection it is necessary to remember that the human type is made up of three conspicuous natures: A nature that feels sensations, or physical: a nature that feels emotions, or spiritual or emotional nature; and a nature that thinks, or mental nature. Mind and spirit are being so strenuously applied to daily tasks, to the detriment of physical energy, that the human type is threatened, thus resulting in abnormalities. Specimens of symmetrical cultured men are more and more rate because of this twofold development. While these natures are separable, so that any two may l e developed at the expense of the other, it is necessary for us to exclude the third in the strata of the “real cultured man. There must he a co-activity of all these forces if we would hold fast to the real purpose of our being. The co-activity of our natures has been undeveloped by education liecause of our failure to appreciate the inevitable importance of their correlation. If we let our emotions run riot, or our mental aspirations imjtcach our being, it is not a strange result if we but reap a twofold instead of a threefold benefit which is continuous through our brief span. Nor should physical tyranny wield the sceptre of life, but there should be an ctjual distribution of these activities. When one is impressed with the truth and the import of the correlation of these three indispensable natures which constitute his being and the necessity of their co activity, then they become invaluable factors in the individual's life. Iiach nature superinduces the other to a greater activity which implants personal worth in the individual, and he becomes the ideal man from the universal standpoint. i� DIRECTOR HUGHES.

Therefore, let us all remember that polite usage sanctions haste in eating and reaching to help one's self. Carry all the grub you can from the table. Talk as much as possible and laugh continually. Sing occasionally for a change. If toothpicks run out, use your fork or finger as a substitute. Convey all food to your mouth by means of knife, spoon, shovel or coal chute. When eating soup smack your lips to show your appreciation. F.at bread from loaf, as you get more in this manner If your tableware is free front foreign matter send it out and have it decorated.

As we listen to the clinging And the clanging of the bell. We allow our thoughts to wander. Far and wide to roam or dwell; Then returning, next to wonder. Why that bell disturbs our slumber. But the fleeting years, unchanging. Call us from thy brazen sound. And thy clinging and thy clanging ()n our ears no more will pound. Sailing now on life's broad ocean. Seeking fickle fortune's portion. Now oft beaming, as we're dreaming. We can hear thy waking sound Kinging out in all its clearness. Pealing o'er the country round; Then awaking midst our pleasure Find that we have k� t a treasure. But the lapsing years, unfeeling. 1 )ra v us close to other shores.
