Professor of Chemistry at Ursinus College Che RUBY is respectfully dedicated by Che Class of toto as a token of esteem matthew Beardwood, fl. m„ m. D. 'TpfiftjAI THEW BEARDWOOD was born at Cape May. New Jersey, on tire 22nd of June. 1871. His father was ,M I| engaged in business in this city and was a member of the Select Councils. When the subject of this sketch was but •bree years of age. his parents removed to Philadelphia, where his father engaged in the cloth finishing business in lafC-!1 the manufacturing district of Fairmount. Philadelphia, and later at Kensington, Philadelphia. Dr. Beardwood received his early education in the public schools of Philadelphia. In his seventeenth year, he received the A.B. degree from the Central High School. Philadelphia, after his completion of the regular four years’ course. Five years later he received the degree. A.M.. from the same institution. During the years. 1890 and 1891, he specialized in Chemistry at the University of Pennsylvania. In 1891 he matriculated in medicine at the Mcdico-Chirurgical College, under the preceptorship of Prof. James M. Anders, and in 1894 was graduated from that institution with the degree. M.D. Within a very short time after receiving his degree, he was appointed Resident Physician at the Medico-Chirurgical Hospital. where he also served the internship for one year, 1894-1893. In 1893 he was elected Lecturer on Anatomy at the I raining School for Nurses, in connection with the Mcdico-Chirurgical Hospital and simultaneously received the appointment as Assistant in Gynecological Surgery at the same institution. In 1896 he was elected Instructor in Chemistry and Medical Physics and three years later appointed Lecturer on Clinical Chemistry at the Medico-Chirurgical College. In 1900 he became Adjunct Professor of Clinical Chemistry and Toxicology in the Medico-Chirurgical College. In 1914 the same institution appointed him Professor of General Chemistry and Toxicology, which position he still holds. Dr. Beardwood was called to Ursinus College in 1903. at which time he accepted the chair of Chemistry. He is still engaged in his medical practice, but his college duties confine this to office work. He is quite frequently called into the courts of Philadelphia, where he gives testimony as an expert chemist. He is affiliated with the following organizations: I he American Chemical Society, the American Medical Association, the Pennsylvania State Medical Society and the Philadelphia County Medical Society. He is also a member of the Rox-Irorough I odge of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. For the past ten years and at the present lime he is ruling elder in the Presbyterian Church. Duiing his entire career at Ursinus. Dr. Beardwood has gained the respect and esteem of the entire student body: however. he is best known and appreciated by the students of his own department. The study of Chemistry is conceded to be one of the most difficult in the college, but. due to the personal interest which Dr. Beardwood takes in each one of his students, the course thus presented is made both attractive and profitable. He is widely known as a scholar, a Christian gentleman, a professor of great breadth of culture, an instructor of such kindness and patience that he has won the friendship and honor of all who know him. 5 To college friends of many years I o those gone far away.

S3 Senior Class fiistory FTI'.R toiling nearly four years in Ursinus, accumulating for the mind those treasures which must forever he ours, we have come to the last lap of our college careers. It is a source of joy to the members of the graduating class that their school days are rapidly drawing to a close, and they will soon he ready to enter the practical work of life. Yet they are not unmindful of the pleasant limes spent and the friendships formed at dear old Ursinus. It is with no small degree of apprehension that they must leave Bomherger's “classic halls. bor many of them the past four years have been powerful factors in moulding their lives, broadening their horizons, and making them better equipped for the real work of life. The characteristic quality of the class of 1915 has more than compensated for the deficiency in quantity. Our band has been few but true. Not once, in all our brilliant, yet consistent, record, has anything been pulled over on our class. Small in number, we were able to make creditable showings in the class rushes and in the inter-class Football. Baseball, and Track events. Our class has been endowed with its share of scholastic, musical, oratorical, literary, and athletic ability, and has contributed generously to ti e various activities and organizations about the college. Since entering college in the ball of 1911, the present Senior class has shown its ability to do things. As Freshmen, they courageously performed all the honest tasks imposed uj on them by the athletic managers. Cur Sophomore year was notable for several reasons. It was during this year that Steve.” with the skill of a veritable Sherlock I lolmes, ascertained the whereabouts of our class President, and rescued him from the Norristown residence, in which the Freshmen had him incarcerated, thereby saving 'Spike from the ignominy of presiding at the b rosh banquet. As Sophomores, we abandoned the traditional, albeit foolish, custom of breaking up the Fresh-Junior shine and gave the Seniors a shine instead. With the arrival of the iunior year came upper class responsibilities. We naturally assumed that dignity which is befitting persons of this high station in college life. In addition to educating the 1917 class, attending chapel, classes in Philosophy, and library culture, and writing term papers, we found time to edit a Ruby of high literary excellence. At last the Senior year has come with its great possibilities and responsibilities of leadership. To us it has more than ordinary significance. Work h s been interspersed with pleasures. One of the fondest ideals of our college course was attained when we gathered in the Banquet Hall of I lotel Walton, in Philadelphia, on that December evening, and partook of that sumptuous spread and listened to the delightful rehearsal of past achievements and the prophecies of the future. Commencement lies come almost too soon, and, as we are about to leave our Alma Mater, let us decide to take with us into the world the spirit of Ursinus. and no matter how widely separated our paths may be. we feel certain that our classmates will cherish the fondest memories of dear old U. 34 X Hf.nry Kulp Ancona Pottslown, Pa.

Rah! 47 48 'junior Class History T is with pleasure that we contemplate recording the history of the class of 1916. for. taking a retrospective view over our past deeds, we find that we have accomplished many things worthy of mention. We have established a record, which is unparalleled by that of any other class which has hitherto entered the halls of Ursinus. and toward which future classes may do well to aspire. Although we were, upon our arrival here, somewhat inexperienced along certain lines, we immediately showed our pluck and mettle by downing the Sophomores on the green in front of Bombcrger and by painting our numerals and putting up our posters about college and throughout the town. The Freshman-Sophomore Football game was the next event of importance to demand our attention. The “Sophs. although they trained and practiced for two weeks in preparation for this contest and exerted themselves to their utmost to vanquish us. were unable to cojk with our gridiron warriors, and. consequently, went down to an ignominious defeat, losing to their superiors by the score of 20-0. Suffice it to say. we had no difficulty whatever in solving their famous “1 lip plays. The girls showed their class spirit by giving the boys an elaborate feed in commemoration of the victory. In the early part of December, when the appointed time had come for us to depart to the City of Brotherly I ove. where we might partake of the sumptuous banquet which had been prepared for us at the I lotel Walton, we marched boldly down the main avenue, and. after drying up the muddy campus with the Sophs. boarded the car. Although we were foiled in our attempt to have the Sophomore President with us. “as guest of honor” at the banquet (the Sophs having secured his release through the mediation of the Norristown Detective Agency), we all enjoyed ourselves immensely and returned to the college as a more firmly united class. In the Spring we paslimed with the Sophs on the diamond. I he Sophs. after we had run wild on the bases for a few hours, gave up in disgust, convinced that it was useless to attempt to vanquish an unconquerable foe. That we. thereafter, had their “goat” beyond the shadow of a doubt, was evinced by the fact that not one of them could be found in sight to prevent us from tendering the Juniors a reception at the end of our freshman year. ITe next Fall, after a most enjoyable vacation, we again arrived on the scene of battle and immediately made preparations to show the Fresbies a few tricks in rushing. 1 Icre again we were victorious. This defeat, together with the acrobatic stunts •19 of (ho “Frosh. which afforded us much amusement, even (hough it appeared lo some of (lie “Freshies to be “out of the bounds of reason. had such an effect upon their undeveloped craniums that they forgot to paint their numerals. But the best must eventually go down to defeat, and so. to give the Freshmen a little inspiration for future effort, we bowed to them in the inter-class Basket Ball game. However, in order that they might not ascend to too lofty heights, we accepted their invitation to a Baseball game on Patterson Field. After seven innings of cavorting upon the green, the class of 1916. through the masterful pitching of Captain Kennedy and the heavy hitting of the entire team, was again victorious. However, we would not have our readers infer that we devoted all of our first two years to inter-class activities, to the utter neglect of our social and intellectual life. Cn the contrary, we have always taken a very active part in all the college activities. We have contributed largely to both Societies, to the Glee Club and to the various other organizations about the college, while our class has maintained a record for scholarly attainment. During our Freshman year, we showed our college spirit by working hard and incessantly in order to attain that goal which is the object of all who enter these classic halls. Now. that we have become Juniors, it behooves us to assume that dignity which is becoming to upper classmen. We have given up those things which were characteristic of our childhood days, and are devoting our efforts more earnestly than ever to real intellectual work, spending much of our time in the writing of term papers and in solving the deep problems of Philosophy. We have, as a whole, proved ourselves to be efficient in all college activities. On the athletic field, in the class room, in our Literary Societies or at some social function, the class of 1916 has always been prominently represented, and we now eagerly await the time when we shall go out from our dear Alma Mater, true lo our motto. In Omnia Paratus. 50 'john Arthur Adams A little nomense non- and then. HOHN ARTHUR ADAMS, th- Pretty Boy o( our class first yelled for his milk bottle at West Sunbury. Pa., on August 18. 1891. in this | ejceful little village Arthur passed th; hr t years of his life. When he had arrived at the proper age. he was sent to the public schools. Having completed his preliminary education, he was graduated with honors. H s patents, deeming it wise that the education of llus mischief-loving youth should not cease at this point, he was sent to the West Sunbury Academy, from which school he graduated in 1909. The next two years were spent out in the world, learning some of th mere practical lessons of life. Arthur now decided to prepare for college and in keeping with his resolve he entered Slipprry , , Rock State Normal School, from which institution he was graduited in 1912. “Babe. as he is generally called by his associates, came to Ursinus in the ball of that year. Upon arriving in town lie endeavored to make Shreincr Hall his place of abode for the night but was thwarted in his attempt by tbe rjuick action of th- preceptress. He finally landed in Freeland. where he still continues to hang his hat. Babe connected hmself with Father Hirsch’s Bird Seed Group and got down to work. In the class room he listens very attentively and usually handles the shovel with sufficient dexterity to get away with his recitations. Arthur has distinguished himself to a considerable degree as a society man. having attended shines at both Olcvian and Shreiner Halls. He also traveled with the 400 of Collegeville and F.vansburg during his first two years at school. Ibis year he has registered for Library III and IV, and thus far has only two cuts. His melodious voice can be heard almost any hour of the day. floating over the campus, frightening th; birds and causing his loommatc. Grind Stugie. to cry out for mercy. In the college activities we find Arthur a valuable asset. Zwinglian literary Society, the Historical-Political Group, the V. M. C. A., and th; Vs'sity baseball team; all come in for a due portion of his consideration. He has always been a loyal member of his class and in recognition of h:s ability he was elected President of the class during h:s Sophomore year. Af'-r Arthur receives his sheep-skin. lie expect: to teach and our heartiest wishes for his success shall go with him. 51 miles fiowetb Jlusterberry Thou loo hast learned to love. ILES HOWETH AUSTERBERRY was born at Skulville. N. J.. on December 31. 1893. Here he ‘pent hi early childhood day. in happiness and innocence. At an early age hi. parents moved to that wonderful town of I rappe. Pa., over which Zeus Fegley presides, and to which many of our young gallant, have gone forth in earch of matrimonial renown. Here he attended the grammar school, and in due lime was graduated. Realizing that lie could never earn a living, much lew accumulate a fortune, by common ordinary labor, our hero decided to further his education. Consequently he entered Collegcville High School, and. after attending for a numlier of years, was welcomed into the precincts of Ursinus. in the Fall of 191 I. During hi first year lie attended strictly to his scholastic duties, which necessitated his most careful attention. Being heavily burdened with conditions, he found his work rather irksome and at the end of the year he decided that it was unwise to be hampered throughout one's college course by overwork. Acting according to this dictate, he entered live Norristown High School as a Senior in the Fall of 1912, and was graduated from that institution the following Spring. During this year. Miles collected all his heretofore unclassified knowledge, and moulded it into a form that would enable him to complete his college course in a short lime, and allow him a little diversion on the side. So. in the Fall of 191 3. Aus re-entered our noble institution, and has Iseen giving a good account of himself, not only scholastically, hut also athletically. For the past two years he has played a splendid game for the Reserve football team. Not only in college athletics has “Aus” especially made h;m‘elf felt, hut also in outside activities as well. He has staunchly guarded station A for the St. Luke's Baseball Club of Trappe during the last few years, and his teammates, in appreciation of his efforts, have elected h-m Captain for the season of 1913. Aside from this. Aus belongs to the St. Luke's Glee Club, and is a reliable first tenor on the College Glee Club. In the class room .Miles has also made h;s presence felt. H- find sufficient time, however, to “shine occasionally, and has proved himse'f a social lion, both here at college and on the various Glee Club trips. He has decided to follow business as a profession, and we can only predict success for him in his undertaking. 52 Jacob timer Bahner A politician—one that would circumvent the devil. MONG (he beautiful, rolling lulls of Snyder County, where (he broad Susquehanna flows, nestles the little village of Herndon. Pa. Twas on the ninth of August, in the year 1890. that the quietness of this little town was disturbed by the wails of a wee morsel of Pennsylvania Teutonic humanity, as it endeavored to make known to the world that it was not as other babies, even though they may look alike. After slue process of time. Jake,” our hero, was sent to school. When he had absorlied all that the public schools could offer, he proceeded, during the next few years, to impart it to the growing generations of his community. Finding, however, that they wanted to know too much. Jake resolved to drink, once again, of the f ountain of Knowledge. Accordingly, he went to Union Seminary, from which he was grad uated in the Spring of 1912. It was at this time that Jake” felt a call to alleviate the physical sufferings of humanity and. with this object in view, ambled to Ursinus in the Fall of 1912. To secure the proper training for a future M.D.. he entered the hardening environment of the Chemical-Biological Group and the Doghouse. and. while there, aroused the feelings of the Irish element by insisting in singing. Die Wacht am Rhein. In his Sophomore year. Jake moved to the East Wing to be among the ministers' bunch, and has remained ever since, except to return to the Doghouse. in his Junior year, for a short stay to get rid of the mumps. In his Junior year, he found the jockey business of the Classical Group too strenuous, so he attached himself to the Historical-Political gang. As a student. Jake is a hard, consistent worker. He is an active member of Zwinglian. being one of her spirited debaters. He has allied himself with the athletics of Ursinus and holds positions on the Scrub football and baseball teams. As a memlsor of the College Kitchen and Big Nine Club, he has distinguished himself by reason of his ravenous appetite. Jake took a plunge into the social world in his Freshman year and at that time was on The l-evcl.” but since then he has contented himself with being a once in a while. As he | cddlc j ots and pan« in the coal regions during his Summer vacation, there may lx- a reason. After completing h's course at Ursinus. Jake expects to enter the teaching profession. In this we predict and wish him great success. fiS franklin Ray Bemisdcrfer There is mischief in this man. brawny sturdy stockcr first made his airpearance on this terrestrial ball in 1895 at Greencastle. Pa. Having performed the unique feat of acquiring the art of sjreech during the first week of his existence, it was thought appropriate to include in his cognomen the name of our leading statesman. Benjamin I- ranklrn. and accordingly he was named hranklin Kay Bemisdcrfer. He received his early education in the public schools of Greencastle. Pa., and having made a creditable record, it was deemed advisable by his parents to send linn to Shippcnsburg State Normal School. In the short space of two years he acquired all the knowledge that the institution offered, both in class room and dance hall, and hence, under the guidance of Dot. Omwake. he was registered as a student at Ursuius in the Fall of 1912. As an athlete “Bcmis has made a reputation on several occasions. On the tennis courts he has shown his ability, even to the extent of playing doubles and love sets with the fair sex. We also find him playing guard on the Scrub eleven Not only is he an athlete, but also a s.udcnt. lo omit the class room work from Ins life sketch would Ire a fault for which the biographer could not be too severely censured. Franklin has always been a good student, but he is far from what we might term a grind, for much of his time is sjient in developing the aesthetic side of his nature. Although he has not been captivated by the charms of any of the fair maidens at Ursinus. it is a well recognized fact that he is somewhat of a social celebrity in his home town, for he often relates of his Summer experiences. He enjoys singing, his favorite song Ireing. I want a little bungalow, just big enough for me and Kose(n). Franklin is a member of the F.nglish-I iis-torical Group, a staunch supporter and ardent woikcr in Schalf. a valued and prominent member of the V. M. C. A., and group adviser of tlie Freeland I fall I lebrew Culture Group. He has proved himself a loyal classmate, and this, together with his other good qualities, has won for him the admiration of his classmates. Franklin is looking forward to taking up the profession of teaching, in which we can predict nothing but a bright and promising future for this young man. Iflargaret Roberts Care Peg of my heart. I love you. E pause for a moment and think; yes. think hard, for we have come to a fair young lady of whom the Lrsimtes know hut little: namely. Margaret Rolscrts Care. Margaret, better known as Peg. first opened her baby blue eyes in the little town of Centre j Point. Pa., in the year of our lx rd 1893. Her early life is a blank, but from ancient documents we have discovered that she moved to Norristown when quite young, and there entered the public schools to gain ome lamin’. In 1908 she passed into the high school. While pursuing her studies here. Peg was very demure but. nevertheless, she never failed to surround herself with a host of friends. I hroughout her high school life she was very attentive to her studies but. in her third year, she was induced to become a “Russelite. This has since required a great deal of her time and. although this appellation still clings, she never delves into intricacies, but rather plays indifferently with its principles, and takes up more ardently the art of music, in this we find her very proficient and we have but to hear her bursting forth, with that far away look in her eyes, especially in the song. The Miller Who Lives on the Dee: Oh! That is (hr Fellow for Me. to realize her skill in expression. In 1912 she was graduated from high school, and. in selecting an institution for her higher education. Baltimore was chosen. Reluctantly sh r prepared for college, for her backwardness and love for home and friends made her fretful of the future. Two weeks were enough for her. and at the end of that time she was marching back to Norristown with a happy heart. In a short time she decided for herself and chose Old Ursinus. For her first two years Peg was a day student and. as a result, few of the boarding students got to knew her personally. We now come to her lunior year. She mvsl have been favorably impressed with the nui and r.unncrv on Sixth Avenue, fo' sh' decided, for this year at least, to join them: and through the mediation of “Sister Bcvns sh' was u«hcred into the Ilvrd Floor Big League. Peg has chosen teaching as her profess rn. an'1 we can, holding in m'nd her many commendable qualities and her inborn talent, sec in store for her nenc but a brilliant future. CeRoy Tritscb Derr Who Joes the best his circumstance nitons. Does nrell. ads nobll; angels coulJ no more.” FRITSCH DKRR. whose physiognomy adorn this page, first practised his vocal ability in die burg, now known as I amaqua. on the twenty-eighth of April. 1892. Being a bright lad and looking very promising to his parents, they reared him and soon sent him to school. After he had mastered the subjects of the lower grades, he proudly entered the I amaqua High School, and in 1909 was graduated from that institution with honor . During the next three years, he assumed the responsible | o ilion of Assistant to the Su| erintendent of the P. R. Railway. Being unable to further resist the lure of a higher education, he decided to come to college and to cast his lot with the 1916 class. In his Freshman year. Derr was a social lion and often pined that he had but one wife to give to his Alma Mater. Needless to say. he has always maintained this reputation, and every shine finds him there as the honored guest. In his Sophomore year, he es| ecially distinguished himself in the class fight and baseball game, coming away from both with the ivy crown of success upon his head. But. kind reader, pause for an instant! A change took place. Roy became far different as a Junior than he was as a I-reshman. and devoted hi entire time to educational pursuits. In the class room, especially, has he shown his lucid qualities and is a wonder in Omwake's classes, using as his motto. In hoc signo vinces.” Upon entering Ursinus. the original of this picture immediately affiliated himself with Crow's C arving Cor| ' in the Chemical-Biological Group, of which he is still a faithful member. In the meantime he ha absorbed much of the benign influence of the institution, and lienee we find h m a very active member of the Y. M. C. A. and Hirsch's Sunday School cla? . Secretary of the Athletic Association and an able instructor in the dancing department, lately instituted ( ). In literary work he too is prominent and Zwinglian I .iterary Society is glad to claim him as her own. He has also ably filled the role of bass in the Glee Club for the past two years. As a member of the Weekly Staff and as F.ditor of the 1916 Ruby. I .earned has well merited the sobriquet given him by his friends. In hi profession as a chemist, we entertain for him bright prospect for a successful and prosperous future. 50 William Sorber Dicmer have a paision for the name of Homer. UST as the sun was rising over the town of Spring City on the twenty-ninth day of Aprii. there came into life a � on. who. shortly afterward, was named William Sorber Dicmer. William had the distinction of l e:ng the loudest howler in the square, and if he had been placed on the fence he would not have known whether to start a shoe or a clock store. Shortly after this he. with his father and mother, removed to Pottstown. where lie was destined to annoy the natives by being a pest. Immediately he began to get hard by carrying matches, drinking milk and spitting dimes. In due course of time lie entered the Pottstown High School, where he became a renowned Latin student. Here. also, hr became a famous athlete, playing on the high school baseball and basket ball teams. He was graduated from this institution in 1912. and the teachers heaved a deep sigh of relief when he finally received his sheep-skin. and sauntered toward the green-� warded campus at Collegeville. In the Fall of 1912. under the guidance of Dicky Arms, he came to L'rsinus and became a staunch member of our class. “Dicky would not permit William to enter the class scrap, maintaining that he was so small that he might get lost in the crowd. However, what he lacked in his physical make-up has been amply counter-balanced by his work in the class room; and if his guardian had given him free sway, he would have undoubtedly stood at the head of his class (?). The only other obstacle to his success is l.nglish Bible, for. as yet. lie cannot appreciate the value of such a course, and often mutters: You might think we were going to church. William as a social star does not shine very resplendently about the college; but he is frequently heard to make reference to the Pottstown. Reading and Ringing Rock� girls. Although not very musical, he has been heard to sing in sweet strainls I here’s No Place Lake Home(r). In athletic activities about the college he has met with enviable success William has been 'Varsity baseball man for two years and has acquitted himself creditably on all occasions. His aim. after graduation from L’rsinus. is to teach, and ultimately to gain a name for himself as a professional ball-tosscr. Whatevc- mav be his undertaking, we wish him unbounded success and feel certain that victory will crown his efforts. Herman franklin Gingrich ''Determination and pluck ore fhc synonym of his name. N lunc 2 . 1891. up in the region ol the Pennsylvania Dutch, where Iteer flows freely anti pretzel are plentiful, little Herman fust grabbed a milk l ottle. At the age of six. Herman dragged off to school to learn tire A. B. C's. which he has now almost mastered, f le received all of his elementary education in the Lebanon schools, the culmination of which came with his graduation from Lebanon High in 1911. Feeling the necessity of a higher education. Herman entered Ursinus with the class of 1916. Ging. as we have dubbed him. is a good all-around scout. He is the tallest of all the Cedars of Lebanon which adorn our campus, end in fact there is no one who stands higher in all phases of college life. His intellectual prowess is vouched for by all the professors. His ability as an athlete has been demonstrated upon the athletic field. In football Ging has shown himself to be one of the best tackles Ursinus has ever had. In basket ball he distinguished Irmsclf as a center on his class team; but in baseball. his career was stunted by an accident to his arm in his Freshman year. He is also the Ursinus Dori as. having acquired this reputation by putting his fist through door panels during his first year here, while a memlser of “Jack Shepard’s Friday Night Club. Not only in these activities has Ging shown forth, but as a social lion as well, he has demomtrated remarkable versatility. He was once one of Mis Faulkner's proteges, but when the news lcak-d out in Lebanon. Ging received a calling down, and has since then I mited his social intercourse, with the fair ones, to letters. Besides theie things. Gingrich is a hustling member of Schalf IJterary Society, is a good debater, a silver-tongued orator, and shines conspicuously during the -ocial hour. He i an ardent s upon tier of the Y. M. C. A. and attends all meet'ngs f.uthfullv. He has played th'e-ycars on th 'Y’.vsitv football team, was a mcmlicr of the class basket ball and baseball teams, and has starred in all branches of athletic . I le also belongs to Mrs. Webb’s pot-wre tling crew, i a mon ber of th- Historical-Political Group, rooms in Freeland Hall and is on the House Committee. G;ng expects to ! e a lawyer some day. From present indications we predict a great -.veer for Hetman. Here’s to Ging with wishes from the entiic class that he may meet with unlimited success. 68 Walter Roth Gobrecbt Yon Catuui hath a lean anti hungry lool(. and gentlemen, kindly fix ycur optical organs for a few moments upon the brawny specimen before you. known throughout t regions of both hemispheres as the only original King Cobrccht. This superfluous lump of humanity, whose full name is Roth Gobrecht. was born on May 31. 1897. at his father's country home at Hanover. Pa. lis caily education was secured in the High School of his native town, from which institution he was graduated, with high honors. Spring of 1912. Considerable difficulty tlien arose in deciding just what line of work he should follow, but after his ponderous frame had l een precipitated headlong, leaving visible effects, while engaged at the painter's trade, h s parents decided to send him to college. He early manifested marked tendencies toward “larnin. so Dean Kline, with whom Walter spent his spare moments plucking flowers on the former's farm at I lanover. finally directed his steps toward Collcgevillc. Hence his pull with the Duke. from whom he always receives an A. Goby. after he had successfully detached himself from his mother's apron strings, made his appearance at Ursinus in the Fall of 1912. somewhat verdant and homesick, to l e sure, but nevertheless bubbling over with the vigor of youth. While he is undoubtedly the kid of the class, having not yet passed his eighteenth milestone, he is nevertheless one of its brightest members. However, his accomplishments do not end with this, for the realms of society have also claimed his attention. I le lias been a freejuent caller at Mrs. Krmold's feline establishment, and on one occasion was even so engrossed in the co-eds as to carry one of the fellow's suit-cases from the station in mistake for that of an Olcvian Fairy. His work in the main, has been along literary lines. He is a staunch supporter of Schaff Literary Society, and the various religious organizations have also occupied a prominent place in his sphere of activity. All in all. Goby is a good fellow, and we couldn’t gel along without him. He is a member of the Classical Grou; . end it is his ultimate a m to enter the ministry, although at one time he had a jiositrn. as Miller. under advisement. Wherever his lot may be cast we wish him Godspeed. and feel reasonably certain that the same diligence, that has pervaded his stay here at college. will militate for his success on the stormy sea of life. Allan grater ’or Inilli hath belter deeds than words lo grace it. I .THOUGH there have been many event during the la t twenty year which have attracted our attention, beyond doulri the greatest happening occurred July 7, 1893. when lo and behold a new-liorn son was discovered in this, our great Western I lemisphere. After much wailing and gnashing of teeth, the name Allan was finally decided upon a suitable for one who was to startle the entire world, including Collegcville. by his wonderful discoveries. At the age of si , he entered the Lower Providence public schools and soon set a new record by saying hi X, V. Z's backward. Being naturally a bright child, he advanced rapidly and in due time was graduated from the grade school and entered u| on a four-year course at Collegcville High School. While here, he made a brilliant record, and in 1912. was graduated at the head of his class. In the Fall of 1912, together with Gottshalk. Keyset and Hunsicker. Allan entered Ursinut College a a full-fledged Freshman. Being a lover of unknown quantities, he joined the Mathematical-Physical Group. Since then he ha become uch an adept in the art of differentiation and integration that there is no doubt in our mind but that at some future date we shall see his name published far and wide as the promulgator of some new idea in mathematics or a the discoverer of a new theory in the physical world. Allan has always been immune from that disease, fatal to so many college men. love. Ilie most probable explanation of thi is that, in pursuing his studies, he does not have time to bother himself with the fair sex. While in High School. Grater was a star performer on the baseball team. It has since been whispered around that there were only nine fellows in the school. Since entenng college he has dropped athletics, although he is always one of the most loyal supporters of Ursinus' teams. 1 he luniur year finds Allan working harder than ever. Bible is his favorite subject and he knew the life of Paul from A to 7. Grater i a memlser of Zwinglian I Jterary Society and has proved hi ability as a debater to the satisfaction of every one. Upon leaving college Allan expect to join the rank of men and women who are devoting their efforts toward helping others in the path of knowledge. As a teacher, we predict for him a glorious future, and we shall always be proud to remember him as one of us. «0 Rerberi £. hoover “Thu vhich non• seems frivolous and slight n•� ' prove o serious consequence. I was cnc of those beautiful, balmy days in June. 1893. when the subject of this epistle was ushered into the Dutch town of Glen Rock, located in the wilds of York County. Pa. After attending the public schools of his native village for several years, this promising youth entered the York County Academy. I lere he applied himself very diligently for two years and was graduated in the Spring of 1912. Upon entering Ursinus the following Fall, it was his firm intention to specialize in Latin, and he therefore entered the Latin-Mathematical Group. But this aspiration was short-lived, for. after becoming acquainted with a few of the adherents of the Group, he at once changed his course. It soon became evident to the students that this young man was possessed of many accomplishments. It was during his first few days at college that Herb” disclosed his wonderful vocal qualities by singing little ditties to th? moon. Although somewhat involuntary, these exhibitions | aved the way for his position as whiskey tenor on the Glee Club. He was also the proud possessor of considerable ability as a cornetist and he frequently disturbed the occupants of F.ast Wing with his nocturnal raids. However, it was not until his Sophomoie year that Herbie came to the front. During this time he displayed great ability in the .asking of I reshmen's rooms, and also proved S:m self to be an actor of some note by successfully taking part in several plays and sketches. As a social star he has always been a shining light. He is quite a favorite among the fair sex and can often be found in the library holding a little tete-a-tete, while all parties to Valley Forge and Sanatoga Park number h:rn among their members. I he prominence of tin- col- lege cutie. as he is often called, is just as great at home as it is at Ursinus. and it is nothing unusual for him to receive three or four neatly addressed letters a day. Beside all these side issues. “Herb has always Iscen known to be a good student arid takes great inte est in his Riysics. Mathematics and Chemistry. He is a staunch Schalfite and a fai.h-ful memlser of the Y. M. C. A. He is also a member of the Glee Club and the Student Senate; and is Assistant Manager of baseball. His chosen profession for future life is teaching. and that success may be with hun in his undertaking is our sincere wish. fit Sadie fi. Runsickcr A v hear I is as true as sled.” PA.. fi� t makes its mark on the pages of history as the birthplace of the heroine of our liltle tale. Sadie f I. I fun-sicker. After gaining a high standard of scholarship in the Ironhridge Public School. � he bade a fond farewell to her native hearth and sought to absorb further knowledge by entering the Collegevillc High School. Here she continued pulling high marks and was one of the most popular girls in school. Every morning the walk down the railroad to Collegevillc brought roses to her cheeks. And perhaps it was the attraction of these roses or the hope of gaining some like them that caused Sadie to walk ho..� e in the evening. sometimes Singley. but never alone. Although she has recently moved to Collegevillc. she still enjoys her Sunday afternoon walks to Ironhridge. While in high school. Sadie often visited literaiy society and. on one occasion, came to a baccalaureate sermon—but alas! a sudden shower ■ uined her pristine s| lendor. However, in spit- of this dam| er. the next Fall, with the rest of our glorious class, she entered Ursinus. At first Sadie seemed a rather quiet girl but it took only a few days to learn to know her. and the specially reserved seats which she and Grace occupied on the back row with Jake lx came the most popular corner of the Dean's Gvtin class. She also did something for her country in her Freshman year by helping Mabel get to the banquet, thereby discomfiting the Sophomore lorces of Shreiner. In her Sophomore year she was brave enough to take Math II and became so fond of it that she often hunts for asymptotes in her dreams. She visited both societies and. although there seemed a Grater attraction at wing, die joined SchafT. and her musical ability has made her a very valuable memlser. She is also a member of Y. W. C. A. and was recently appointed a delegate to the convention at I .ancaster. A list of Sadie's friends wovld include ev-ry or”! enrolled in college and a great many outside. Early in her Sophomore vear she io-ned :h Regulars and. of course, we all know that there is a special place reserved for the lad from York who visits her house both F.arS(y) and late—ch’efly late, for we .- r told that she sometimes has to ask him to take his breakfast here on 'he old front porch. Whether Sadie leaches or practices domestic science, as is more probable, we wish her unbounded success. mabel Davis Hyde din Abel to Jo all thing . N the month of August in 1896. Conshohocken heard, foi the first time, the musical warble of Mabel Davis Hyde. Her first sixteen years were years of laughter and song, and then her father decided that Mebs needed a higher education. So she came to Ursinus and entered the class of 1916. But. a we were all Abel to see. twa of no avail. Straightway Mabel made heisclf famous as the noisiest member of Shrcmer peanut-heaven and she claims to be the founder of the C. 1. C.. an organization which is most active during Commencement Week. When Mabel feels that her lungs arc not sufficiently strong to give utterance to hei enthusiasm, she pretends to make the violin speak for her. although no one can endure the agony of hei playing. Preceptresses have learned to recognize Mabel’s musical ( ) laugh and. all too often, as it resounds through the hall, have climbed two flights of stairs to deliver a pretty lecture. only to find that Mebs was out of sight. Of course her safely lies in her clever little trick of scrambling under a bed in times of danger. I his good stunt proved very useful at the time the class of '17 had their banquet, for Mabel was the one to squeeze through the transoms of the Freshman girls’ rooms. I .ast year we made a most remarkable discovery. You see. Mabel has always had a habit of going home over the week-end ami returning laden with candy and flowers. Alas! it happened once too often. There was a dreadful blizzard and Mabel, man. flowers and all were stranded in Collegesillc. ITicn the mystery was solved, even though we never knew just how the shy escort slipped away unseen by the Shreiner girls. Mebs has shared the rare privilege of being a flame of Spike Harrily and now, when she is not Penn ing letters, she is seen Bobbing up and down in the library—looking for reference books, no doubt. Malsel is an active member of our Y. W. C. A. and of Schalf Literary Society. In both organizations she is found on the program, for a solo, on almost every meeting night. Her voice is one of the best of which Ursinus boasts and. what is more unusual, she is always willing to sing when she is asked to do so. Mebs says she is going to teach. If she does this, a thing which we least expect, we can only wish her the best of success. Russell Conwell Johnson Free from taliety. care and anxiety. EGGARING description is live joy llial existed at Parker ford. Pa., when this specimen of humanity first appeared upon Mother Earth arrayed in all the splendor and grandeur of a fanner. This individual, from the very beginning, displayed the characteristics of that well known class of animals called mammals: and after Iseing the cause of much inarathoning on the part of hi' father, he finally settled down, only to have his animal nature hurst forth into a new field of activity. In order to give vent to his youthful energy he began to throw eggs against the barn door. Noticing that the hens resented the treatment to which their fruit was subjected. his father finally decided to introduce him to the finer arts of farming, especially into the ait of wielding a pitchfork. Suffice it to say he soon became very proficient in this, and has (seen a good ‘‘heaver’' ever since. I he individual of whom we are speaking is none other than Russell Conwell Johnson, better known as Jing, the spit-ball artist. Surrounded, as he was. by such an influential environment. Jing soon lent his untiring efforts toward higher attainments, and consequently at an early age he entered Spring City High School, from which institution he was graduated in 1912. It was while attending this institution that he was first introduced into the society of the fair sex. wh:ch at first had a decided effect U|x n his nerves. l ime wrought great changes, however, and this bashful country youth, having totally overcome this physical debility, was shipped, via the Pcrkiomcn. toward Collegcville. ITtat Fall, he entered L’rsinus in a diligent search for knowledge. In his first year he distinguished himself as a star on the mound, and his services in this cajsacity have proved a valuable asset to the success of the baseball team during the past three years. Within a few years we shall not be surprised to see hi name on the payroll of the Athletics. However, he does not let athletics interfere with his studies. Especially is he proficient in Chemistry and wc predict for him a professorship in Chemistry in some large university. We are proud, indeed, to have ling with us. and during the years of our affiliation with him. we have fount! him a true and faithful friend: and hi sunny dis|x� ition has won for him the love and respect of all with whom he has come in contact.

That very day Jimmy” became a memlser of Price’s football camp and since then has Iscc'.mc one of the most brilliant luminaries in the prominent constellation of Ursinus' stars. Such incident as eighty-three yard runs for the only touchdown Ursinus has ever scored against Lafayette are mere trifles in Mike's” eventful life. I le has been fittingly honored with the captaincy of next year's team. But Jimmy has won more fame for himself upon the diamond than upon thr gridiron, if lint be possible. He has the unusual honor of l eing Captain of the 'Varsity in bis lunior year and possesses a large loving-cup. as well as a beautiful gold watch, is booty from his summer raids in the realm of baseball. In academic, musical and social pursuits, Mike is very prominent. He is a crammer” of the highest order and utilizes hi Friday evening to cultivate his voice. Jimmy says he intends to preach after graduation, but he will really make a better lawyer than a preacher. However. it is safe to predict that, if popularity breeds riches. James Buyers will be a multi-millionaire. COLD and stormy night in January. 1892 witnessed the arrival of two cute little strangers at the Kennedy home in Trenton, N.

Pa. Here, in intimate communion with nature, the contemjxsrary pair waxed strong, and at the tender age of five, the parents moved all their belongings and. incidentally, those of the rest of the family, to the C ity of Brotherly love. In 1907. James entered Northeast Manual Training High School, l or two seasons. “Mike was quarterback on Northeast's greatest football teams, was elected pipe-man in his Senior year, and served a term as I reasurer of I he Alumni .Athletic Association.

Marion' father i� .1 doctor and she early learned what the bit? bottle in the doctor' office contained. She frequently dispensed this knowledge during her first year at Ursinu . a Emily and Adela can testify. When Marion w� old enough to go calling with the cat under her arm and Max. tire pu| py. following her. her ( arents decided that it war lime for her to mingle with the little Dutch girl and boy (emphasis on the boy ) in Slatington; 0 she wa� � ent to school. Here she endeared herself to all her schoolmate and early learned to spell bath—P-a-g-b. I he fact that she received highest honor when she was graduated from high school also proved that she was an unusual student. I’li following Autumn she entered Keystone State Normal School and finished the course in one year, another evidence of her precocity. At Normal her heart was slightly touched but. due to her training as a doctor's daughter, she was Frank with herself and threw off the spell without it leaving any bad effects. Then Marion followed in the footsteps of her father and entered old U. being numl crcd among the illustrious 1916 class. She distingubhed herself during her verdant day by her plucky fight in getting to the class banquet. During her second year Marion was under the chaperonage of three Senior , from whom she learned the art of making puns. I fer prerent roomies are endeavoring to break her of thi habit since Doc lower’ recent lecture on insanity. As to her numerous cavaliers; for the first two years he had a new one at every shine. Having spent last Summer tending her Dad' office and attending dance with the bunch (which one of the bunch we couldn't say). Marion returned to join the O-hi-o � uite and ha become leading lady in the caste. She love to play all kinds of tricks but especially to be a participant in the Romantic ' ones (ask Mildred about this). Marion is a staunch Zwinglian. Vice President of Y. W. C.

Nevertheless. her classmate wi h her the long and happy life which her true and friendly spirit de erves. 6G Dwight Othniel Herr “He 5dV-s little, but when he speaks the world listens. HIPPINGPOR’I has long been famous because of ihe many varieties of weeds which grow in its vicinity, but none has gained more wide-spread fame than the chap who first kicked his number tens on July 26. 1895. Phis was none other than Dwight Othniel Kerr, otherwise known as Doc. or Polar Bear. which latter name he ha' acquired from the use of his favorite brand. After graduating from the Shippmgport Public Schools, he entered Slippery Rock State Normal School, where he learned the first rudiments of football and baseball, and devoted his spare moments to his books. While at Slippery Rock. Othniel played on the 'Varsity team in football and the Reserve team in baseball. When he had gained all the ___________________________________________ knowledge this institution could offer him we find him among the graduates of the class of 1913. In the Fall of that year, Kerr entered L'rsinus and became the mail-stay of the football team ac center. He ha played that position for two years with considerable success. Though the Doctor is a good student and also spends a great deal of his tune on the athletic field, he finds time to ramble over to France(s) several times a week. Kerr has also shown his athletic ability in the basket ball cage and on the tennis court. In the latter sport it is often possible to sec large numbers of students gather about him to admire lus stately pose, as he serves the tennis balls with accurate eye and telling effect. At this institution Kerr has been a success as a student, doing his work thoroughly and evincing deep interest. He has made many friends, and has been a staunch supporter of the Red. Old Gold and Black. When on the gridiron he is a man of few words, but an accurate machine in action and filled with determination. He also covers first sack on the Reserve baseball team and has demonstrated his worth in that capacity. Because of his ambition, he spends hi summers at Ursinus taking special work. I fe carries a heavy course at present, and is thus enabled to finish his college career in three years. Upon graduating from Ursinus. it is his purpose to become a member of the bar. Knowing the perseverance and untiring elforts which characterize all of Doc ' undertakings, we feel assured that he will succeed, and look for him to make quite a name for himself in the forensic arena. $ 67 fiarold Benner Hersebner Oh, the disposition Bui nature hath maJe it.

Kersch’’ became alive to the world in Trappe. the little burg right up tl� e line. l ake a walk with him some time and he will |x int out to you the very house in which he spent the helpless time of his life. Not content to remain long amid the green fields and under the kindly influence of Colleges ille. he persuaded his parents to ambulate to Pottstown, then to Mahanoy City in order that he might play in the coal dust and be in the region of hard guys. Thus we sec that Kersch i- no exception to the general rule which applies to ministers’ sons. I laving duly entered Mahanoy City I ligli School. Harold decided to take part in all the activities, literary and athletic, as well as social. He formed many friendships there, one of which, in particular, will doubtless prove lasting. Hi work during the course was carried on in a very persistent manner and. in 1912. he was graduated from the high school with high honors. When it was decided that Kersch. because of his fondness for books, should continue his educational pursuits, he was sent to Ursinus. where he entered, in the Fall of 1912. as a Fresh- man. Under the tutelage of Fats. Dave, and “Chrissy. the experienced trainers for all rough-neck tricks and stunts, there was no chance for reformation, but merely an added impetus for him to follow the reputation which he had established during his first few days at school. A molasses shower failed in its purpose. and he continued to spend his unoccupied moments in smashing windows, throwing water bags and building a fore‘1 in bats’ room. During his Sophomore year. Derr. Harold’s roommate, brought some restraint into play, and now we note a remarkable ch:inge in Keisch. For the pranks of his Freshman year, he has substituted hard work and other college duties. I le is an active member of the V. M. C. A., and Zwirglian Ijtcr.irv Society has found in him a loyal up; ortcr. He is also a memlscr of the Glee Club. Weekly Staff and other lesser organizations, in all of which he shows great willingness to work and not impede progress. In his chosen profession, the ministry, we predict a bright and successful future for him. 68 fielen Bergey Kevscr Hef very fron-m are fairer far Than smiles of other maidens arc. young lady first opened her eye to the beam of light and the Aurora Boreali in the small, but prosperous, town of College-ville. Pa., on January 26. 1894. and is known to the natives about the college as Helen Bergey Keyser. She. being very mischievous in her early childhood days, as soon as her age permitted, was sent to school to receive whatever training and discipline she could absoib from stern and vigilant school masters. In the early years of her life, she formed the friendship of a young gentleman who claimed her attention ever afterward. She then became very religious and now makes frequent journeys to I rappe Church, ably assisted in her devotion, we are told. The gospel that seems to interest her mo t is Matthew, which she reads and studies with much sincerity. In due time. Helen entered high school at Collegesille and. after long and ceaseless study, was graduated in the year 1912. After considerable debating on her part as to what should be her life work, following in die footsteps of her ancestors, she finally decided to enter Ursinus College, with the ultimate aim of being able to cope with the problems of the home more effectively. She therefore entered college as a Freshman in the Autumn of 1912. A Helen always seemed to favor Latin and German in high school, she chose the Modern Language Grouo upon entering college. However, in her Sophomore year, for some unknown reason, she transferred her affiliations to the Lnglish-Historical Group and became a true and constant member of the same by attending faithfully their monthly meetings. In her lu-ior year, through the influence of her friends and spurred on by the de ire to make the most of her opportunities. Helen l e«atiie a faithful and loyal member of the Zwinglian Literary Society. Throughout the college career of th;s young lady, she has formed many sincere and lasting friendships, and her many acquaintances attest to her popularity. Concerning her future prospects, no'tnng is definitely known: but we surmise, nevertheless, that it will be a life-long course in domestic science. Should she. however, enter the teaching or some other profession, we feel certain that a bright and happy future awaits her in her chosen field. 69 Ronald Chester Richline am the god of foolish things. ONALD CUES I ER KICHLINE. leader ol the Doghouse Gang. and sturdy representative of that race of which we are so justly proud, the Pennsylvania Dutch, was born in a secluded valley among the foothills of Eastern Pennsylvania. Bangor. Pa., claiming the honor of his birth, in the early days of 1894. Although Ronald, better known as Kich or Nungus. first saw the light of day on a cold January morn: he has. nevertheless, always had a sunny dis| o. i1ion. His early days arc unimportant: but when fie reached high school, and became associated with Pritchard, a marked change was noted in young Kichline. for from that day forth fie became the village cut up. Upon graduation from Bangor High in 1911. Nungus had become such an ardent admirer of the beautiful that he decided to return the following year and take a post-graduate course. I he next year, following in the footsteps of his two older brothers, he came to Ursinus. and we could almost see the stones of Bomlsergcr light up when he first set his foot upon the college campus. He was enrolled as a member of the class of 1916, and during his Freshman year was a model ( )) student. But since that time. Kich. under the able tutelage of Prof. Vogl. has become one of the leading exponents of German culture, and everywhere he goes he is hailed as a jolly good fellow. On the football field Kichline has shown himself to be an athlete of no mean ability, for it takes a strong opponent, indeed, to prevent him from piercing their line for substantial gains. He also holds down the heavy part in the Glee Club, and is a member of Schaff Society. As a reward for his loyally, the class of 1916 has this year honored him with its presidency. The Freshman class is well taken care of. inasmuch as he is setting them a noble example: and no more week in week out from morn till night do you hear his bellows blow. Kich is upholding the dignity of his office by being a student in the true sense of the word. Another year under the “fsenign influence should fully prepare Nungus to enter Penn Den tal School, wheie. if he performs his duties as capably as he has done here and applies himself in a like manner, we can only prophesy that he will have the greatest success. 70 Elizabeth mae Kobler She lall(s and tall(s. hut that is human. She lilfcs the men. hut she's a woman. EHOLD! we come now to this fair Shrciner element of the class of 1916. Elizabeth Mae Kohler noised about for the first time in 1894 in that wonderful little village known as Eureka. This little place is the commercial center of Bucks County, as all the roads leading from it go to the important cities of the world. Upon the arrival of this promising cherub the village echoed with the words. I have found it. .Soon we find this fair damsel starting her career at the little red school house of Eureka. Here she and Merrill became staunch friends. Mac soon began to teach the teacher, so in 1908 she entered Doylestown High School and. in 1912. as a result of her brilliancy, wandered to Ursinus with scholarship in hand. Thus in 1912 we come upon Mae wandering about like a lost sheep, seeking a roommate. During her Freshman year we found her quite an unassuming specimen, residing on the second floor of Shreincr. But, in her Sophomore year. Mae began to assert herself: she moved to the third floor and became one of the Third Floor Big League. She now became active in social alfairs, very popular among the boys, and quite an efficient slammer. Now she has ascended to the Junior class and we are very sorry to say it is her last year among us as a student, she having taken advanced work at summer school which will enable her to become a teacher a year earlier. However, we are glad to say that she is a loyal member of the 1916 class and will graduate with us after a year of teaching. At summer school she was a wonder, rushing her lessons as well as numerous admirers. She has, however, confided to the girls that she does not care a rap for any of the boys around here; yet she has always expressed a desire for an “Earl. Mac has always been popular among the girls because of her good nature and her happy-go-lucky spirit. It is on account of her pleasant ways and kindly nature that we can predict for her nothing but a very successful future as a “schoolmarm in her own home town. It is well understood that Mae would prefer to locate near the place which attracts her home every week-end. rain or shine, for she is a fanner's daughter and delights to Harrow around.

His youthful intellect early showed signs of learning and fter graduating from the grammar school, he entered the Hazleton Township High School. Up to the time of his graduation from ugh school he was mamma's hoy, but time and circumstance have wrought a great change in this young man. s there was a scarcity of larnin in Hazleton, he packed his grip and m the Fall of 1912 wandered to State College, where he was first initiated into the mysteries of college life. z s Bruce had always expressed a desire of attending a co educational school, he decided to leave this college at Christmas time and finish his year's work at a college of the above named lyi e. So we next see him in Room 208. Freeland Hall, where he has established the most beautiful art gallery ever seen at Ursinus College, ard in which lie spends ALL. of his time except when making a few occasional visits to the class room. Bruce had taken very little part either in college activities or ill h;s studies until the opening of our present college year. Since that time we find him. day and night, in his room turning the grindstone and driving the wagon. In fact, he has succeeded so well that lie is fast winning a place in the estimation of those who exalt the grind. Of course we must not forget to mention that he is a loyal winglian. and one of the most valued workers of the Y. M. C. A. ( ). Besides, lie has given much study to the science known as hypnotism: in fact, he hn� won the title of Robert Bruce Lloyd Harvey Lament, the world's greatest hypnotist and magician. If any one doubts this statement consult Dr. Wood, who is absolutely under the power of Mr. Lamont. Lamont has a large and extensive corrcs| ondence throughout many of the Eastern States, and for this reason none of the fair co-eds have as yet won his favor. He has formed many lasting friendships both within and without the college, and whatever he may choose as his future profession. even though it ! c that of the medical missionary, the best wishes of h's classmates go with him.

We also find the subject of this sketch deeply interested in the standard Comedies and Tragedies also Romances. He proved to be an actor of no small ability when he took the part of Richard HI at SchalT Anniversary. He is one of Sc half's ablest debaters, having taken second prize in the Schall Prize Debate. As Assistant Business Manager of the Weekly. we find him discharging his duties in an able manner. In the realm of athletics we find Stcrl at home. He excels particularly in basket ball, and is the most consistent scorer in that sport. I In teammates have recognized his ability by electing him Captain of the 'Varsity, for which position he i well fitted. He is also a member of the 'Varsity football team and showed ability and good judgment in running off plays at the position of quarterback. We find him taking an active part in baseball, for during the past season he played short-stop for the Reserves. Thus we have seen that Stcrl is a man of many parts. Upon the completion of his collegiate course he expects to study law. and. judg'ng from his intellectual and oratorical abilities, we can predict for him nothing but success. 1 Ic is a member of the Historical-Political Croup, and with collateral readings in one hand and note-book in the other, one can almost daily see him amble toward Bomberger, bound for the History Room, where lie listens attentively to that spectacled sage of I listory.

Her folk decided her name war to be Mildred Elizabeth Paul, leaving the la t name to be added later. After she had grown a little larger he attended the public school down the treet. where she acquired a thirst for knowledge and a great fondne for the all-day � ucker which she used to find in her desk. In high school day she showed her talent for acting by appearing a the heroine in the school play. Thi talent is seen today by her performance as a snake-charmer, which are always an event at Here she is also famous as live leader of the orchestra, in which ‘he plays first comb When Mildred was graduated from high school. Paulsboro was so pioud of her that it gave her a commencement all to herself, and. next morning, a picture of the “class of 1912 found it way into the Pres which sold remarkablv well that day. The following September. Mildred, equipped with a recipe for fudge and a pack of cards, journeyed to Collegeville to join the class of 1916. Soon after her arrival it was noted that a certain Senior became very much interested in the life of Paul. He finally persuaded her that she ought to (Otto) join the regulars. Since these Freshman days Mildred ha somehow Iseen interested in the West. Indeed her knowledge of Minnesota is positively startling. This Fall she turned her steps to Smith College but. later on. came back to us and joined the firm of O-hi-o and Co. I his event was celebrated by “eating bat (an importation from New England) at Olevian and by prolonged rejoicing in Dog House. Indeed “Rut” has l� cen smiling ever since. I hesc days Mildred is a very industrious Junior, her time being consumed in pre|Mration for teaching. But we do not believe that she will ever be eligible for the New Jersey pension. She allows herself to be diverted at time to talk about life at Smith when she agrees with Prof. W.ule and � av� homesickness is a feeling that cannot be described. Sometimes, also, you may find her in the library scanning the Bucknell Weekly. Mildred i a loyal member of Schalf Society. Her faithfulness is not surprising considering her interest in all societies, especially lodge (spelled with a capital). 71 bayden Benjamin nelson Pritchard 7 fs music halli charms lo craclf crocks. AYDEN B. N. PRITCHARD, or Pritch as he is commonly called, comes from Bangor. Pa., where he was born on the twenty-eighth day of September. 1890. lie was graduated ‘rom Bangor High School in 1907 and. � ooii alter graduation, entered business. in which activity h: was engaged for a jieriod of five years. At the end of this time, however, the desire of an intellectual career possessed him and. having accumulated sufficient Kale to tide him over four years of riotous living, he decided to enter Ursinus College. After a preliminary scouting expedition in the Summer Session of 1912 he returned in the hall of that year. Right here, at the beginning of his college career, he showed his sagacity by joining the ranks of the class of 1916. Although long in stature. Pritch is a jockey by trade, and has never yet succeeded in finding a pony that lie could not mount. Beside being an ex| ert rider, he is a heaver of no mean ability and. but for an unfortunate accident, would have made the 'Varsity baseball tearr in his second year at college. He is alx fond of tennis, and is a lover of the game where both arms are permitted. Since entering college, Pritch has taken a firm stand for co-education, and at all social gatherings he may be seen stalking through the crowd, followed by the tendei glances of all the lovely maidens. He is not only admired by the weaker sex. but is also popular with the fellows. He is always happy and wears the smile that won't come olf. However, he occasionally gets fussed but never indulges in profanity beyond the use of the word Ginger Christmas. Pritch has not only showed marked evidences of social ability, but has distinguished him self as well along literary and musical lines. As a member of Zwinglian laterary Society, he has always taken an active part in the rendition of its program and has gained considerable renown as a comedian. In his Freshman year, he was chosen as first tenor in the College Quar let. and in the Glee Club concerts always charms his hearers by his excellent singing. He is a rare specimen in that lie possesses a voice which reaches to high C. After graduation Pritch expects to follow the teaching profession, and. judging from his proficiency in the use of free Fnglish. it would not be out of the way to prophesy great things for him in that line. 75 Carolyn Gladys Rogers Croat oal(t from little acorns grotr. Her eagerness lor knowledge was so great that die matriculated at Ursinus in 1912 and. by so doing, became a member of the famous '16 class. Her f reshman year may be characterized as a period of transition, for this was the year when Gladys blossomed forth in all her glory and won the heart of the liven Connecticut, but now I ennessce. man. I o her already heavy schedule was added a course in radiator culture, but. despite this fact, her regular class room work was by no means neglected. Gladys continued to carry an extra course throughout her Sophomore year and. although a day student, she remained within the precincts of Bombcrgcr almost daily until the hour of six pealed forth. I his was the year that Gladys joined the Zwinglian Literary Society. She entered upon this new work with the greatest amount of zeal: in fact, so fond did she become of the society that she was once discovered calmly sitting on the steps leading to the society hall—not alone, however. Her interest was not entirely centered in Ursinus. for. quite by chance, we learned that weekly epistles [Mssed between Williamson and Jeffersonville. It is Gladys' ambition to train America's young hopefuls to better citizenship. Whether she will follow this profession is .1 matter of conjecture, but. judging from her efficiency in the past, we feel sure that she will lie successful in anything she attempts. 'O I many years ago there came to the community of I'.igleville. into the family of Rogers, a small bundle of humanity which soon proved to be a liny girl. Her fond parents immediately decided ujion the name of Carolyn Gladys as a fitting one for this small child. Shortly after this im|H rtant event the Rogers took up their abode at Jeffersonville. At quite a tender age Gladys toddled off to the Jefferson village school, lunch basket under her arm. From her earliest school days she proved to be a very precocious child, and her teacher soon noticed a very perceptible bump of intelligence developing. In l eb-ruary of the year 1909. fair Gladys entered the Norristown High School. F.ach morning, with her father, perched high u|x n a huge farm wagon, she drove to school. By giving dose attention to her studies she was enabled to complete the four years course in three years, graduating with high honors. 76 Leslie franklin Rutledge He is ala-ays complaining of his lot.” ARL on the morning of the second of October in the year 1893. the inhabitant' of Parkton. Md.. were aroused by the yells of a blue-eyed baby boy. to whom his parents gave the name of I eslie Franklin Rutledge. At the age of six he was sent to a primary school in Maryland, where he studied the rudiments for several years, and then removed with his parents to York. Pa., where he completed his high school course in 1911. He spent the first year after his graduation perusing the catalogue' of different colleges, and during his research he came across the following elaue in the Lrsinus College catalogue: Where the youth of the land may he liberally educated under the Isenign influence of Christianity. I Ic at once decided to make _______________________________ _....... Ur sinus his Alma Mater and entered as a Freshman with the other members of the 1916 class. He spent his first year contentedly with his roommate. Yealts. in East Wing, trying to escape the watchful eyes of Yingst and Fats Bear, and helping to stack rooms whenever the opportunity presented itself. He also enlisted as a regular during this period. He began his Sophomore year aright by helping to introduce the Freshies into the mysteries of college life. Ifiirk-ing himself too good a chap for East Wing, he moved into the Canine Apartments, where he still resides. This year most of Leslie's time is being occupied with his studies. He is. at present, working very industriously on a thesis on The Life of Paul. and there is no doubt in our minds but that he will be able to pull at least an A for his elfort. He is also exposed to Psychology, which is very burdensome to him. and which often forces him to lose his Christianity. Rut. as he is called by most of the fellows, lakes an active part in many of the activities of the college. He has played on the Scrub Baseball team for the past three seasons, and ha: recently been elected Track Manager. He has identified him'elf with the Mathematical-Physical Gioup and is a shark in Mathematics and Chemistry. He is also an active memlser of the Y. M. C. A., and of SchafT Literary Society. After graduation Rut intends to do post-graduate work in Chemistry, after which lie will secure a position as a Chemist. We wish h in the best of success in his undertakings. 77 Clarence William Scheuren Ti belter to leave things undone than lo nrorrv about them. 01J.FGFVILLF. PA.. was aroused from its lethargy, one warm day in the Summer of 1893. by the announcement that a newborn bal e had made its appearance in their midst. It was later ascertained that the child's full name was Clarence William Scheuren. This rather cumbersome name, however, never came into general use. and as he was the only son among Barber Scheuren's shavers he was usually addressed as Son. Iliis handy nickname has accom|sained him thus far through life, and is the one by which his many friends know him. As soon as Son had attained the proper age and was able to sit in one position for a reasonable length of time lie was sent to school. While in school. Son was the recipient of many favors from his teachers. es| erially in the matter of extra work during the noon and recreation periods. During the last year of his high school course, he was led lo see the advantages of a higher education, and decided to go to college after his graduation. He was graduated with the class of 1912. In the Fall of that year Son was able to enter an institution of higher learning, as was h's desire, and. under the guidance of a more cx| erienced member of the family, was piloted through the mysteries of registration, and entered UrsinuS as a memlser of the class of 1916. Since entering college Son has applied himself to the task of taking History notes, and | er-forming in the Chemistry laboratory the customary tasks of the student. Chemistry was chosen by him a a diversion from the monotony of note-taking, but this has recently !� ecn abandoned. Son” has also been a memlser of live Hebrew Culture Group, and the degree of popularity that he has attained among the students of this group is attested to by the fact that he at one time was considered for the position of Group Adviser. During the early part of his Junior yea , however. Son withdrew from the active membership of the group to devote his entire time to the taking of notes. I fe has also been a loyal supporter of his class and has represented it cn the gridiron in a whole-hearted manner. Clarence, himself, is somewhat uncertain as to what field he shall enter after graduation, but. whether he continues to hand out salve and Icdet water down at the barber shop or whether he enters the teaching profession, we wish him nothing but unlimited success. 78 mary fiannab $eiz A sweet attractive !(ind of grace. N a sunny day in May, this bright lassie first opened her eyes in the little village of Mont Clare. She was such a wee child that her parents feared for her size. Thereupon it was decided that she should he given yeast that she might grow into a tall, stately young lady. As soon as she became old enough. Mary was sent to Phoenixville High School in order to increase the convolutions of her brain as well as her height. During her first years here, she became very Gay and it soon became a question whether she should give up her gayety or her education. But Mary liked school too well to give it up. so he settled down to work again. Her thoughts now turned to poetry and she became quite a distinguished rhymer (Rcimcr). Even to this day some of that poetical ability is retained. She was graduated in 1911 with highest honors and. the same year, she broke away from her home ties and entered Wyoming Seminary, only to return to Mont Clare after a few weeks' stay. In the Fall of 1912. Mary joined the ranks of the famous class of '16 at Ursinus. In her Freshman days she shone forth as a brilliant member of the class, especially at the Freshman banquet. where she caused no end of jealousy. Her class spirit also showed itself after the Fresh-Soph football game when she came into the dining-room that evening with an Orange and Black crepr-paper hair ribbon, only slightly smaller than herself. During the early part of her Sophomore year she seemed to be immune from the attacks of Cupid's arrows but. later in the year, she suddenly “Terry -fied the entire student body by falling in line with the regulars.” Now that she is a lunior. there seems to be no change in Mary. She is the same good matured girl who first came to Ursinus. She has been elected Junior partner in the O hi o” firm and takes charge of the money when there is any present, which is very seldom. Mary is a conscientious worker and a good student. She also enters into the social activities of Ursinus. She is interested in V. W. C. A., and is a loyal memlser of Schalf literary Society. Besides this, she is one of the most popular girls in Olevinn and the members of the class of 1916 may well be proud to number her among their classmates. 79 Calvin Preston Sellers Here is a sigh lo those who love me. I IK third day of the past February marked the twenty-first anniversary of the birthday of a sturdy son of the sod. who is the subject of this biography, and who has become known as Calvin Preston Sellers. He was born in the wilds of Franklin County. Pa., near the town of Grcencasilc. I-itlle is known of his early life, except that he drove the ducks to water, shooed the chickens out of the Harden, picked stones on his father’s farm, and attended the public schools. At the age of fourteen, lie entered the Crecncastle High School, and. after having absorbed all the knowledge possible at that institution, was given a diploma. Pen. as he is called, then conceived the idea that the knowledge gained at high school was too limited and that he should go to some higher institution of learning. Dr. Omwake then exerted his influence upon this young man. and. after much persuasion. Hen decided to cast his lot with the 1916 class at Utsinus. Ben was a member of the Reserve football team during his breshman and Sophomore years. Being an Assistant Business Manager of the Ruby he could find no time for athletics during his Junior year inasmuch as he was kept busy bagging and selling Baldy Fenton’s peanuts at the ’Varsity football games. In this capacity he served scry well. During his Sophomore and Junior years he also served as chief hash-slingcr for the Dean and hence his good marks in Latin. Ben is prominent in social activities and is a friend of every one around college, especially the fairer sex. He has not shown any «| ecial favors to any particular one for fear the others would become offended. Preston is quite proficient in the art of running the grindstone and sparks may be seen flying from his room from early in the morning until late at night. I le is an active member of trie college Y. M. C. A., and lakes a great interest in all religious activities. He is a member of the Latin-Mathematical Group, and the Derr Hall haasenpfelfer league. He is a staunch Zwinglian and also Goldie's guardian. When Prestcn gets through drawing ge:m l.ical figures and riding over the Roman Fmni-e cn Cicero’s ponies, at Urs nus. he ex[ ecls to make teaching his chosen profession. Our best wishes arc with him. whatever his profession, and we can only prophesy the best of success for him. 80 Rachel Taust Shatter And still n-e gazal and still the wonder grew. That one small head could carry all she knew. IMF. tun mutt hate theme very brightly indeed when Rachel Fautt Shaner was born, for even nature must hate recognized thit event at noteworthy in the hittory of Poltstown. Rachel early fulfilled tint prophecy, for her clevemets showed ittelf in the way the lorded it over her brother! when a mere child, and the literally ruled the roost. After a preliminary education die entered the Pottttown High School, from which inttitution the wat graduated in 1913. She entered Uninus in the Fall of that year and here toon proved to lie one of Pottstown's mott brilliant lightt. She excelled in her every clatt room but. especially, in Dr. Vogl't French III. where the wat often permitted to do all the reading. Conservative it the word that describes Rachel in live beginning of her Freshman year but. by the lime of the Freshman banquet, the decided that the boys were not so awful after all. At the banquet she had a Lightkcp and hat mote or lets kept Ijght ever since, even to a Ixighton. Rachel won the admiration of the sterner sex by her prowess on the ice. That white sweater fairly flew and glided past all masculines without a glance in their direction. l ime indeed works changes and this staunch young lady, with her independent ways, went so far as to come home from society by the long way and linger under the spreading chestnut tree where the college Smithy stood. She also answered the close to nature call and even suggested maneuvers of a IJght nature. Because of her aptness, she decided to cut off one year at Ursinus and hence attended the last Summer Session of live college Flere we see a new Rachel, a startling individual, who indulged in summer romancing, hammock leagues, moonlight strolls, and frequently cut classes. In spite of all these distracting elements, she came out conqueror at the end. This Fall. Rachel did the most noteworthy thing in her life. She joined the '16 class of which she is ari illustrious memlier. She is an earnest worker of Schafi Society. Iseing alto a mem-l er of the orchestra. Rachel expects to take graduate work at Bryn Mawr. and. if her present is any indication of her future, we are sure that success alone awaits her in her chosen profession, that of teaching. r - 81 Eeigbton Kroner Smith In sooth I know not why I urn so tad. the close of the nineteenth century, on a balmy day in August, the little town of Spring City was thrown into confusion: the e was the arrival of another Smith. I .eighton by name, who was destined to make that name famous. attended the public schools of Spring City and graduated from the same high school in the Spring of 1912. He decid'd kc up law as his profession and journeyed westward to Dickinson, to pursue studies along that line, but he soon found that cas out of place. So he came to Ursinus. and. after taking Prof. Hirsch's advice, he enrolled in the Historical-Political Group. I lis fust year was rather uneventful except for the regular letters he used to receive from a certain girl, and also for his proficiency in ejecting disturbers and loafers from his room. At the time of the Freshman banquet he acted as a bodyguard to our president and led him safely away from the wily Sophs. At the beginning of his second year, he led the Sophs on their having tours and helped to remove the Freshman president, one night, from his l ed. and hide him in a bungalow along the Pcrkiomen. During this year he increased his ability as a preserver of peace in his room and not only removed the disturber, bodily, from the room, but led him up and down the hall until subjection was complete. In his Junior year. Smitty” changed to the Chemical-Biological Group and is now taking up his favc;itc study, namely. Chemistry. At present he is engaged in that efficient and highly regarded department directed by Mrs. Webb, as a hash-slingcr. But we must not fail to note that Smitty has not altogether neglected the fair co-eds of Ursinus. However, upon questioning the gentleman on the subject, he declares with much emphasis. It must stop! it must stop! and. of course, he is believed (?). Smitty is a loyal memlscr of Schnff IJterary Society and has distinguished himself both as a debater and as a musician. He is a member of the V. M. C. A., and is one of the Business Managers of the Kuby. In the profession which he has chosen, namely, teaching, it is hardly necessary to say that his future is bright and our liest wishes for his success go with him afte: he has graduated from dear old U. 82 Ralph Stugart As the car rolled on he hammered on the panels. AI..PH S'FUGART. heller known as Raphy. firs! saw light in Montoursviile. Pa., one hoi Summer morning in July. 1890. At an early age it was discovered that this sturdy son of ihe back woods had an inclination to delve into the mysteries of the scientific world, so in the hall of 1909 he entered Clarion State Normal School, and so distinguished himself in athletics that F.m Miller. the coach at Slippery Rock State Normal School, needing a catcher, induced him to lease Clarion and come to Slippery Rock State Normal School in the Spring of 1911. Slug made good as a catcher, and the next hall as right end on the football team. he became an adept in long runs and forward-pass receiving. In the Spring he again played good baseball, and was chosen, for the All-Scholastic team of Western Pennsylvania, along with “Lil Arthur Adams. As a social lion Ralph also excels, and succeeded in capturing the heart of a fair maiden, who has often sent him letters since he has l een at Ursinus. Paddles Douthett, hearing of this wonder, made a journey to Slippery Rock, and induced Ralph to cast his lot with Ursinus. Hence, in the Fall of 1912 the Ursinus campus was beautified by the appearance of Raphy, who soon exhibited his tendencies toward Biological proclivities. In athletics he has won a seat in the hall of fame. He is one of the best catchers that Ursinus has ever had. and has successfully performed the rare feat of stealing second with the bases full. On one of the trips during his Freshman year, he abhorred the company of his fellow players to such an extent that he locked himself in a private room and rode all the way from Sixty-ninth to Norristown by his lonely. I he charms of the fair co-eds have made but little impression on this young man. although he but recently took a fine young lady to the concert given by the St. Luke's C'dee Club. He is a good student, a memlscr of the Chemical-Biological Group, a member of Zwinglian I -iterary Society. Manager of the basket ball team, and a member of the 'Varsity baseball team. His major studies arc Chemistry and Biology, and he will take graduate work in these subjects after graduation. After he and his bride settle down, he will probably take up the teaching profession, in which we can foresee nothing but success for him. 83 €arl Raymond Vcatis '7 - willsl set the trotld (Esther). |ORK. PA.. has l ecn the birthplace of many great men but it never ushered a more distinguished personage into the world than the one who made his appearance on Washington’s birthday. 1894. in the form of Earl Raymond Yeatts. His parents, seeing that he was a goodly child, and desiring that some day he might become great, began at once to formulate plans for the future success of their son. and in the fulfillment ol their plans they were not disappointed, because Earl has proved his worth in every undertaking. As soon as he was able to talk plainly Earl made his appearance at the York Public Schools. He did not like this new event in his life at lir.t. but. after a short lime, he overcame this antipathy for study, and began to learn so rapidly that in the Fall of 1908 he entered the York High School and scon gained recognition there. In the Spring of 1912. he graduated from this institution. and wish ng to secure a better knowledge of things before facing the world and its various vicissitudes, he began look ng around for some higher institution in which to cast his lot. After a month of contemplation he decider! to try his fortunes at Ursinus. and. accordingly, in the Fall of that same year he entered the ranks of the 1916 class. His first year of college life was filled with numerous incidents. 1 Ic. with his roommate. I.cslio Rutledge, dwelt in the room beneath Christman and Fats” Rear, and on several occasions when Earl was peacefully slumbering he was ruthlessly awakened by a well directed water bag from the dexterous hands of “Fats. During hi' Sophomore year we find Earl rooming with Ixe Thomas, and it was during this year that any one passing their room could hear them discussing the aptitudes and inaptitudes of the Socialistic Principles. Fortunately Earl could not see the validity of I .ee's arguments or he might by this time be an ardent supporter of that party. Despite all these defects. Earl has shown h • ability in many directions. He is a loyal member of his class, a valued member of Schaff Utcrary Society. Business Manager of the Ruby, is connected with all the musical organizations about the school, and takes an active part in all religs ious work. With such a varied experience we c n predict for him nothing but success in his chosen profession, the ministry. Rl 'junior Class Poem In the vale of the Perkiomen. In the halls of Ursinus so fair.

President Pice President Secretary I rcasurcr 89 Sophomore Class History HR thought of writing a class history seemed at first a difficult and painful task. but. upon due reflection, so many pleasant experiences arise that the writer takes great pleasure in compiling the history of the 1917 class. The achievements of our first year, as every one remembers, are quite praiseworthy, considering the disadvantages under which we labored; however, for the benefit of those who do not know us. let us recount those achievements briefly. In the Class-Rush we were greatly outnumbered and were finally defeated by a small margin. The banquet was the next affair, and. to the great surprise of our Sophomore friends, every Freshman was present. The Basket Ball game proved another surprise, for here again we were victors. The field meet was another affair in which the class of 1917 again proved its ability by attaining the highest number of points scored among all the classes. 'Hie Baseball game was won by the Sophomores. This present year, with several additions to the class, we started off with a rush and downed the “Frcshies in the Class-Rush with very little difficulty. Shortly after this, the Frcshies decided (?) to wear bright red caps with a green button. The Sophs are compelled to admit that the colors harmonize very beautifullv and that it was a great step in advance of other classes. After much debating, the Freshmen finallv decided that they would take the risk of holding a bancuct. Thinking they would lose themselves in a large city, thev decider! to hold it at I lotel Hamilton. Norristown. Could the Frcshies have foretold what their Sophomore friends intended to do. thev undoubtedly would have stayed at home or taken different means of escape. After exposing themselves to the blows and flour bags of the Sophs. they finally gained entrance to the street car. looking more like millers than banqueters. Several visited a tailor and had their suits cleaned and pressed, and then were allowed to proceed in safety to the banquet hall. Every one claimed they had a pleasant time, despite their unpleasant experiences. The Frcshies looked upon the Football game with little concern and were at all times confident of an easy victory. Their fond dreams soon passed away when they saw. before their own eyes, their heavy line pierced and scattered, time and again, by the Sophs. Touchdown after touchdown was made until the final score was 26-0 in favor of the Sophs. The class is gifted in having fine musical talent, good debaters, diligent students and men and women who arc prominent in all the phases of college life. And thus may we go on. doing all in our power, little though it may be. remembering that Perscvcrantia omnia vincit. for the honor of our class and the glory of dear old Ursinus. 90 91 Sophomore Roll Charles Edward Bell Chemical-Biological Philadelphia.

We were told upon entering that our names would go down on the college record as the class of 1918. How big it sounded! Then and there we decided to make a history for that class as we went through college, that could never be erased from the college annals. A few days after our arrival, and after the usual preliminaries had taken place, the annual Class-Rush was held. 1 low our boys did fight for our honors! But, as every one understands, the “Sophs were given the victory. I he reason—Senior judges, of course. A proof of the fact that the contest was held under unfavorable rules is evinced by the fact that the Student Senate passed new rules regarding the Rush. Soon after the Rush, the class was organized under the faithful guidance of the Juniors. The usual dose of hazing was given us. but even this did not daunt our happy spirits. One night our boys decided to paint the class numerals. As the Student Senate had failed to provide a board for this work of art. we painted them anywhere and everywhere college pro| erty or not. The cry Freshmen out, was answered by a band of sturdy warriors, who succeeded in keeping the Sophs from the loved numerals. Morning Came and the numerals still adorned the stand-pipe and boiler-house. I o show how full we were of the true college spirit, our boys did not protest when the mandate was issued that they should wear red hats with green buttons. But then wo were such a good-locking class that even red hats could not mar our beauty. In fact there was never such a good-natured Freshman class, as was evident the day of the F. M. game, when they brought up the rear of the parade with their red hats gleaming. The Football game between our class and the Sophs wa$ well played. The Sophs employed half the 'Varsity to play for them. but. even so. we pul up a good fight. All this time the wise Sophs were speculating as to the time when we would hold our banquet. They had frequent meetings, discussing how they would prevent us from attending it. But. when the time came, the best the wise fools could do was to throw Hour on the members of the class as they boarded the car. Nevertheless, we had a perfectly scrumptuous” time at the banquet. The boys found their rooms stacked” when they returned but accepted it cheerfully. Thus far in our college life we have remained true to our ideals. We have several men on the 'Varsity athletic teams, and. in the class room, we arc striving to attain an enviable pojjiion. Every one has taken our motto, Vincit qui se vincit. to heart.

Camain Klnnidy Ex-Captain Bohr Baseball Review of 1014 the season of 1914 approached, the prospects of having a winning baseball team were the brightest entertained at Jrsinus for many years. Of the 1913 team, all the men returned except P. Mathicu. who was graduated. Weller, and x-C'aptain Gay. who was suddenly taken from our midst. With the return of Mitterling. Kennedy. Adams. Stugart. apt. Boyer. Johnson, and of Diemer and Butler, who were substitutes the previous year, together with Reiff. Bedenk and Ziegler of the Freshman class. Coach Price had the material to turn out an exceptional nine, as the majority of the men were seasoned players. Johnson did the greater part of the pitching, ably assisted by Bedenk and Ziegler. Johnson took part in 13 games, winning 8 and losing 3. and a I-I I 7-inning tie with Gettysburg, which was. without clou't. the longest and most thrilling game ever played on Patterson Field. His master performance was the no-lut. no-run game against Fordham. During the season he struck out 133. allowed 36 hits and ranked second in batting. Bedenk pitched several games, winning 3 and losing I. His regular position was short-stop, where he played a fine game and contributed largely to Ursinus' success with his heavy hitting, usually for extra bases. He was the leading base stealer with 12 to his credit, and led in run-getting with 23. Ziegler, the reserve pitcher, pitched several games and should develop into a good pitcher. Mitterling was shifted from the infield to catching and. during the season. was a shining light by his brilliant catching and brilliant hitting. He led the team in hitting with an average of .433, securing one hit or more m every game. I lc was second in run-getting with 23. and third in stolen bases with 10. Capt. Boyer was placed on first base, where, although a new position to him. lie acquitted himself admirably until his hand was broken. Adams then took his place for the remainder of the season: he played a remarkable game around the initial sack and was especially proficient in receiving low throws, saving games on several occasions by doing so. I le led the team in fielding. accepting I 19 out of 121 chances. His hitting was not up to his form. Butler, who had substituted the previous year, rambled around the keystone sack. He fielded in fine style and his hitting was good. Reiff. a new man. was tried at third and easily made good. He fielded in a creditable manner and was especially noted for his strong whip. 1 le did not bat so well but was always dangerous in a pinch. He led in doubles with 8. Kennedy was at his old position in left field and. although his hitting was not up to his standard, fielded sensationally, sav.ng se cral games by his spectacular catches. He was third in base stealing with 11, and third in run getting with 15. Dicmer. another substitute from 1913. was tried out at center field and soon showed the qualities of a ‘Varsity player. He was a reliable batter and fielded like a veteran. He played short-stop when Bedcnk pitched and here he was at home. Stugart was shifted from catching to right field and it was soon noticed that the change was for the good. A marked improvement was shown in his batting: he also fielded well. Miller was the chief substitute for the season after Capt. Boyer’s accident. In all. Ursinus had five men batting over .300. which, in put. explains her success. Cut of 19 games played. 13 were victories. 3 defeats and a I 7-inning lie. Two of the defeats were extra inning games and in onlv one game was Ursinus beaten by more than 2 runs. After the second game of the season, the team made a wonderful spurt, winning I I games in succession. As a whole, the team established an enviable record which, heretofore in the history of the college, has not been equaled. I he prospects for this year arc even brighter than last year. Bedcnk and Butler have not returned, but with the veterans. Kennedy. Dicmer. Stugart. Adams. Yittcrling and Johnson as a nucleus. Ursinus should be heard from next spring ia tie realm of college baseball. 153 1414 Reserve Baseball Schedule and Cineup Manager FRANK M. GleNDKNNIXC. ’13 Captain BERNHARDT R.

In res| onsc to Coach Gorges call for candidates, fourteen men reported. Of these eleven remained from the previous season. I hese men. with the additional material from the Freshman class, formed what seemed to he the personnel of a winning team. The schedule for 1914 was the hardest in the history of the college. In the fust game against Cornell, the team made a creditable showing, having had but three days' practice before the game. At Lafayette, the team made a new recoid. as this was the only Ursinus team that ever played Lafayette to a tie. I lowever, our visions of a victorious team were shattered after this game. From this time we were followed by a jinx : injuries piled up in rapid succession and at no time, during the remainder of the season, was the full strength of the team represented in any game. Gingrich, the premier tackle was severely injured, and although he entered several games and played brilliantly, he was handicapped with a badly twisted ankle. The left side of the line was ruined when Carter left school and O’l loulihan was barred from the team for delinquency in lus studies. Kennedy, the dashing quarterback, was kept out of several games because of a dislocated knee. In the face of all these reverses the team of 1914 was one that had the fighting spirit and. throughout the season, had the unity and coherence that made a successful season, although not winning the majority of its games. Kerr, at center, put up a good, consistent game throughout the season. Schaub and Kichline. the invincible pair, were towers of strength on both the offense and defense. Kennedy, although crippled, played a flashy game at quarter, and when not able to play was admirably replaced by the versatile I ight. whose ability enabled him to fill any position. Clark. Bowman and Brown were the star ends; Brown also playing tackle. F.nke. a new man. proved a find and made a very dependable guard. Minich played gu?rd and t ickle an4 outweighed by every man who opposed him. has the exceptional record of outplaying his opponent in every game. Ctt. Evans. Hartranft and Peterson, although not making regular berths, worked hard and faithfully and deserve special commendation for helping to round out the ’Varsity. I he crowning success of the season was the sensational stand against Franklin and Marshall, the game ending in a tie. Milterling and Minich are the only members who will graduate this year. With the present material at hand and under the able guidance of Coach Gerges. the prospects for 1913 are exceptionally bright. Ralph MlTTF.Rl.ING. '15. 163 1414 Reserve football ceam Coach Prof. I.

Of this number. Brown and Clark succeeded in winning regular berths on the arsity. and Sellers was forced to give up the game early in the season. ITius the nucleus, about which the 1914 Reserve bootball team was to Ire built, consisted of Bahncr (Center). Wiest (End), I lartranft (Guard), and Auster-herry (Quarterback). I he Freshman class, fortunately, was rich in material, and Evans. I lavard. Will. Deitx. Fisher. Greiman. Mecgan. Lape and Witman soon succeeded in securing positions on the team. I he Reserves were confronted with a very difficult proposition when the season began, for it was necessary for them to whip the arsity. which for the most part consisted of light and inexperienced material, into a condition which would enable them to cope successfully with the hardest schedule that any Ursinus Football team has ever faced. I hat they performed their task with marked success is evinced by the fact that the Varsity held I afayette to a tie score, a feat never before accomplished by an Ursinus team. I he personnel of the Reserve team was made up of hard and persistent workers, and the avidity with which they absorbed the F. M. plays and the skill with which they used them against the ‘Varsity, can only be appreciated by those who saw the gallant stand of the Ursinus warriors against the onslaughts of the mighty conquerors of Penn. But three games were played by the Reserves this season, and. considering the fact that we had one of the best Reserve teams that Ursinus has ever had. we would, at first sight, feel inclined to censure those whose duty it was to arrange a schedule. However, we must not be too critical, for when we consider that a new coach had but recently assumed control and that the presence of the Reserve team was required each minute, we cannot help but feel that the authorities were justified in pursuing the course which they did. Bridgeton I ligh was the first team to face the Reserves, and. playing like a machine, our team managed to emerge from the battle with a 6-6 score. I he next game was with an independent team from Spring City, and we were defeated 21-0. During this game. Evans, at Fullback, displayed his real ability as a line-plunger. Time and again he smashed through the heavy Spring City line for five and ten yard gains. The final game of the season, with Roycrsford. was lost 7-6, and. although defeated, the Reserves deserve much credit for the plucky fight which they put up against seemingly overwhelming odds. The fortunes of war were with the opposing team. and. despite Ott’s brilliant playing at Tackle, Roycrsford succeeded in winning the game by a narrow margin. I aken as a whole the season can be said to have been a very successful one. Evans and Captain Hartranft showed ’Varsity calibre, and. inasmuch as the latter is the only man lost bv graduation, the prospects for next season are verv bright. 166 lf.7 1415 'Uarsity Basket Ball Ceam Coach Wesley R.

Preliminary practice began when the new floor was completed shortly after the Thanksgiving recess. It was necessary to devote most of the time in December to the rudiments of the game, so that Coach Gerges might secure a good idea of his material. I hroughout this month the squad consisted of about thirty men. but with the resumption of practice at the end of the C hristmas holidays the ’Varsity squad was reduced to fifteen members. I his squad consisted of Adams. Schaub. Kerr. Light. Llavard. Will. Gingrich. Evans. I lain. Yost. Rutledge. Clark. Mitterling. Kennedy and Harritv. After selecting the Squad, less than a week remained to whip a team into shape to meet the strong Drexcl five. Nevertheless. the Philadelphia quintet was defeated by a safe margin. Two weeks later Moravian College sent a fast team to Collcge-ville to suffer the fate of the Drexel aggregation. Our first defeat of the season was administered at Philadelphia at the hand' of I cmplc University. Perkiomen Seminary was easily defeated in the field cage as the prelude to a scries of reverses. Five consecutive games, played on foreign floors, resulted in four defeats and one victory. Our conquerors were: Franklin and Marshall. Drexel Institute. Moravian College and Lebanon Valley College: while Pennsylvania Military College was our victim. I he last game of the season resulted in a defeat for Wyoming Seminary in the field cage. I hus. in ten contests, we were victors five times and tasted defeat equally as often. Fhe team was undefeated on the home door. Although not an excuse for the defeats, it is significant that all the floors, on which the team was beaten, were considerably smaller or narrower than the field cage court. Of the players Captain I igbt was the only one to play every minute of the season. Schaub. Kerr and Llavard also played very consistently, while Adams, although handicapped on different occasions by a sprained ankle, put up a plucky game. Will substituted frequently enough to win his letter. Referee Brokaw was commended by all the visiting teams for his fairness. On the whole, the first season was successful, and in view of the fact that none of this year’s team will be lost through graduation, we may reasonably expect a better team next year. 169 Cennis Association Officers President Roy L.

Therefore, we recommend : 1. That the help in the kitchen he done away with and that the college girls be substituted in their stead; the girls to be selected from the Freshman and Sophomore classes. 2. That Dutchy Baden he eliminated from the faculty, thus striking French and German from the curriculum. 3. That the services of Judge” Bordner be dispensed with and that Keen Wiest be employed to heat the rooms with hot air. 179 Greater Ursinus 4.

I hat the youth of Ursinus. henceforth, procure their cakes at Shreiner and Olevian Halls instead of ambling down to Freda’s. 6. That the upper-classmen shear the locks of all the Freshmen and that the college authorities deduct twenty cents, therefor, from the deposit fee of each and every Freshman. 7. I hat the sum of two dollars ($2.00) be charged for extended examinations instead of the present charge, which is one dollar ($1.00) ; said sum to be used for the purchase of “Silence” signs for the college library. Coasts on our faculty I lere’s to the men of our Faculty. I he men whom we love so dear; And here's to Old Boots Baden. Who fills all the Frcshics with fear. I lere’s to President Omwake. A man who has plenty of biz. If a trip to Bermuda he fails to take. He’ll l e laid up with the “rheumatiz. I lerc's to Pop Kline with a Whorl-en his nose. A jolly old fellow is he; He needs no one to darn his hose. For Sarah darns them free. I lere’s to Rapp with that cute little grin. Who was known as the college cop; For finding air passed through capillary tubes I le finally rose to the top. Here's to Doc Smith of poetical fame. Who is quite well versed in grammar; He likes football and the national game. And is especially fond of the “Dramar. Here's to Prof. Clawson with a look serene. Who dopes out the Math with case. In Math and Physics lie's really quite keen. And his pupils keep working like bees. 180 Hcrt-’s to Doc Bcardwood. good-natured and kind. Who is never without a smile. A fault with him you cannot find. No matter how hard the trial. I fere’s to Carl Vernon, a philosopher wise. Who was down with the chicken-pox. Too long in Ins slumbers, each morning he lies. Neglecting his curly red locks. I lerc's to George Handy. “Down with the booze. 'l oo much of it’s being sold. Pooh! Pooh! I’ve forgotten my overshoes. And I’ve taken a very bad cold. I lere’s to the bird of the college. You'll find him wherever you go. I Ic hands out biological knowledge. And in I ab you can hear him Crow. I lere’s to Prof. Hirsch anti his history notes. And outside readings galore. He tells of old castles with protecting moats. And the theses Luther nailed to the door. Here's to Prof. Yost, the all-around man. I le’s a faculty member no doubt. He runs the library on a very wise plan. And we wouldn’t dare leave him out. Can You Imagine?
