If we have 4 accomplished these two aims, We will consider the looolt a success. Realizing that this is our first effort, we malce no apologies for its imperfections.

NEWMAN, the subject of this sketch, and the honored dedicatee this year of THE BUGLE, was born at Wytheville, Va., on October 29, 1879. At the age of five, he moved with his parents to Bristol, Va., where he spent his early boyhood, and where in the public schools he received his preparation for college. He entered King College, in 1894, at the age of fifteen, and, with such diligence did he pursue his studies, completed the course with highest honors in three years, and, as a special mark of distinction, was awarded the Science Medal. The following year he spent in the offices of the Norfolk and Western Railway, at Bristol, there, doubtless, acquiring the training in business methods which later in his career as a college professor was to stand him in such good stead. In the autumn of 1898, Dr. Newman, realizing an ambition cherished persistently and enthusiastically from childhood, entered the University of Virginia, where his scholarly ability and pleasing personality soon won for him a position of iniiuence and leadership in the student-body, as well as the encomiums of his teachers. In his first year at the University, he Won the Magazine Medal for the best essay, and the much coveted Harrison Prize, awarded for the most meritorious translation appearing that year in the University Magazine. Combining for the next two years the exacting duties of a student at the University of Virginia with the onerous office of the instructor, and measuring fully up to the responsibilities of each, Dr. Newman completed, with marked distinction, his chosen course at the University, and in 1901 was awarded the M. A. degree. ' The year following he taught English, Latin, and German at St. Alban's School, near Radford, Va., and, it would seem, found himself too much preoccupied with the duties of his instructorship to avoid-if he would have avoided-the machinations of that artful little intriguer, Cupid, for during this session at St. Alban's he married Miss Carrie Fain, daughter of Gen. and Mrs. John Fain, of Bristol, Va., a bold, but-so subsequent events have proved-a wise and happy step. The fall of the year 190241903 found Dr. Newman again at his alma mater, the University of Virginia, as instructor in English Literature, and as a candidate for the doctorate in English, Latin, and German, which, at the end of the session, he received, magna, cum laude. His second career at the University was, like the former, uniformly and signally successful, his studious and scholarly habits of mind, combined with an engaging personality, winning for him alike the renewed esteem of his preceptors as well as the lasting friendship of his student comrades. Leaving as he did, and as we have seen, so favorable an impression at the University of Virginia, it was but the logical sequence of events that, when appealed to by the Virginia Polytechnic Institute, in the summer of 1903, to recommend some- one to fill the then vacant associate professorship in English at the latter institution, the authorities of the University should have immediately and unreservedly endorsed Dr. Newman for the position. Thus it was that the Virginia Polytechnic Institute came to know and to esteem the man in whom she now takes so large and so justifi- able a pride. Ei Q, 6 Dr. Newman immediately became a leader in the activities of the Institute, and his persistent and highly intelligent effort has been a notable factor in its advance- ment to a higher plane of usefulness. To him, in particular, must be accorded a large share of the credit due to the faculty of the Institute for its wise and progressive step in raising the entrance requirements to a standard better befitting its dignity as an institution of learning. Under his guidance, too, the Literary Societies have received a new and vigorous impetus forward, while his work on the various Institute committees, including those affecting student activities--athletic, literary, religious- has been of the highest value. ' Like all men whose aim is as close to perfection as possible, Dr. Newman takes advantage of every opportunity for self-culture, and to this end has spent several vacations in study and travel in Europe. And while he is a constant and efiicient student of his specialty, he divides his time between it and other pursuits of a popular and scientific interest. Thus, by close and intelligent application to his work, he has risen steadily to the position which he now fills so acceptably-the Professorship of English and the Deanship of the Academic Department. Altho the routine duties attaching to the positions which Dr. Newman has succes- sively filled since coming to the Virginia Polytechnic Institute have never been light -frequently, indeed, quite the contrary-he has, notwithstanding, found time to edit in a most scholarly and delightful manner the Essays of De Quincey and Shakespeare's Julius Caesar. He has also contributed frequently to some of the current literary magazines and to the Library of Southern Literature. As a writer, Dr. Newman has command of a most excellent and charming style- lucid, succinct, direct, a style abounding in the niceties and idioms of a language prodigally rich in bothg a style, withal, resulting evidently from a vigorous and prolonged discipline in the ancient classics, and from an intimate and appreciative acquaintance with the best in modern literature. If thought is the gold, style is the stamp that makes it current and says under what king it was issued, is a felicitous statement of a truth manifestly much taken to heart by Dr. Newman, since not only is the style of what he writes all that has been so inadequately indicated above, but the thought that pervades and dominates it is always clearly his chief concern 5 the style being merely a vehicle for its proper and pleasing conveyance. But it is, perhaps, as a speaker, rather than as a writer, that Dr. Newman makes best and most pleasing use of our language. A good voice, absolute freedom from platform mannerisms, a nice and judicious choice of words, a searching and acute analysis, a straightforwardness, and a downright logical coherency combine to lend to his speech the quality of genuine eloquence. It is not surprising, therefore, that he is much sought after as a public speaker, and is always heard with pleasure, and never with less of profit than of pleasure. But, after all, W01'tlL 'makes the man, omol the lack of it the fellow, All the rest is but leather and prunellafl And so to say merely that Dr. Newman is an accomplished writer, a thoroly competent and popular teacher, and an eloquent speaker, is to leave unsaid the better part of what must and does impress all who come into contact with him, in whatever relation of life. Not only is he all of these, but, what is far more important and praiseworthy, he is a loyal and patriotic citizen, an irreproachable husband, a self-sacrificing father, and a true friend. To merit higher praise were impossible, to bestow it, equally so. - ii - - Qi,i,i.i,E 7 Y, , 1-v v v- A THE P U 'f , seize O, maid of these tragic days What 'vision do you see?

R. H. HUDNALL was born in 1870, in Mississippi, and died it ,l , in 1916, at the Virginia Polytechnic Institute, Blacksburg, 1 Va. He was therefore in the forty-seventh year of his age, and in the eighteenth year of his service as a professor at ,l . this institution. l 4 l ' Extended biographical notices by Drs. Metcalfe, Lingle, and New- , man 'appeared in the November Bulletin, This, therefore, is in no ir sense intended to be a sketch of the life and activities of Dr. Hudnall, X but merely an appreciation. Q l As a teacher, Dr. Hudnall brought to his work a well. equipped and i trained mind. For eighteen yearshe was head of the Department of ' English at the Virginia Polytechnic Institute. The most striking l i characteristics of his work werejperhaps carefulness, thoroness, and 5? conscientiousness. He magnified his department, and glorified in his work. He demanded of his students the qualities which he enjoyed in 4 a pre-eminent degree himself. His interest, however, in the institution 4 'i was not bounded by the limits of his departmental or professorial l work, but was as broad in its scope as the life and activities of the institution. He was the friend of every membertof the faculty. Every student I ' 1 under his care was the object of loving solicitude. Asa man, his ideals , 1 were lofty, his life was cllean, his mind and heart sound. His sympathies i were broad, his interest in all that pertained to what is worth while i in life was deep and strong. Those who were fortunate enough to 4 L enjoy his friendship could but be impressed with his sincerity, with his tenderness, with his liberality of mind, his high sense of justice, and his keen sense of honor. Ready to encourage those who had succeeded, PL and to appreciate to its fulll worth the merit of their work, he was j 5 equally ready to lend a helping hand to him who had been less fortunate, and had failed. . Not only did the institution of which he was an honored professor profit by.his broad interest and sympathy, but the town, the com- i Wi munity, the church, and the State as well. His activity in the social and church life of his town is well known. Whatever tended to elevate . and uplift, always elicited his aid and approval. In his death, Virginia Polytechnic ,Institute has suffered a i j severe loss, a loss which was keenly felt by faculty and student alike. T ' His impress for good has been left upon both bodies, and tho he has passed away, yet the spirit which actuated him in his life remains i , with us still, and will serve to guide to higher things those who were 1 associated with him. , R, ' i i it . fi 0 , is so 1 A 1 4 f A - - I2 f X I V x ,J -- f Q , 2' f V , y !

THE ACADEMIC DEPARTMENT HE present Academic Department, which embraces the sub-departments of Modern Languages and Latin, Mathematics, Eng- lish, and History and Economics, was established for rather, re-established, for an Academic Department is no new thing at Virginia Polytechnic Institutej by the Board of Visitors in July, 1915. In the following January, the new department made its first appearance in the college catalog, and the one course, General Science, offered in this department was duly outlined and tabulated. 'At the present time fDecember, 19165 there are seventeen students taking the General Science course, these being distributed as follows: Senior, one, Sophomores, five, Freshmen, ten, Special, one. DEAN NEWMAN That the course should? have made so prompt an appeal to the student-body is perhaps due to three things. In the first place, the General Science course is designed to meet the needs of those men who for various reasons wish to attend Virginia Polytechnic Institute, but who do not care to pursue any of the purely technical courses offered, in other words, it is a general college course, with, however, as the name implies, special emphasis upon such fundamental sciences as mathematics, physics, chemistry, physiology, biology, and geology. Secondly, it is the most liberally elective course offered at the Institute, and, in a school where the various lines of study are so largely prescribed, this fact doubtless has its attractions. At the outset, the student may elect between Latin and one of the modern languages, and in the Junior and Senior years only about half of both classroom and laboratory work is definitely specified. Finally, the ,course contains a number of valuable subjects of instruction not included in other courses. Among these are Latin, astronomy, political science, logic, and psychology, and others will certainly be added if a demand for them develops. As the Academic Department grows older, and the General Science course becomes stronger and better known, the number of students taking this course will doubtless increase. For those who desire to prepare themselves to be teachers in the high schools of the State, and especially in the agricultural high schools, the course should have a particularly strong appeal. To the prospective lawyer, doctor, or minister it offers that general training which should precede the more highly specialized course of study. As preparation for a life of general business activity, it presents many attractive features. Certainly it would seem to meet a real need, by thus furnishing a liberal college education of scientific type as the broad foundation upon which a successful career of almost any kind may be permanently built.

Such leadership calls for men fitted with technical knowledge-for investigation, for teaching, and for various forms of extension service, as well as for that form of leadership which is the natural result of being both a good citizen and a successful farmer. The demand at present for properly trained and equipped men for the various phases of both public and private service in agriculture is far greater than the available supply of men. It is the function of the agricultural college-not only to train young DEAN PRICE , , men for these varlous forms of rural service, but to direct and co-ordinate their eiorts in such a manner that the Whole rural population will be brought in direct touch with the college and its teachings. The agricultural graduate should, therefore, have a broad and liberal training, in order that he may be able to grasp the many important economic and social problems that are pressing for solution. He should not only be able to ,recognize such problems, but he should' be qualified to take some part in their solution. The agricultural college has often been subjected to the criticism that it educates young men away from the farm 5 but such criticism has no force so long as the college graduate's opportunity for service is greater in the field of public agriculture than in that of private farming. Agriculture has been taught at the Virginia Polytechnic Institute since its foundation, in 18723 but a modern course in technical agriculture was not offered until after the reorganization of the agricultural department by President J. M. McBryde. The courses of study offered in the early days of the McBryde administration, by such men as Professors Alwood, Davidson, Niles, Smythe, and Nourse, furnished the nucleus for strong fundamental training in agriculture and horticulture. These men set a high standard in agricultural instruction and in agricultural service for those who have succeeded them. Fortunately for the students of this institution, those in authority have, from the date of the reorganization meitioned, insisted not only upon sound technical instruction, but have also demanded thoro and broad training 1' , ee .,, e. - . , - - 30 I Qii,ili.i'iEi if - Yi , g U in cultural subjects and in the sciences cognate to agriculture. The result has been that the institution has not turned out one-sided specialists in some particular branch of agriculture, but has developed trained men who can think and act for themselves. President Butterworth describes the Work of the agricultural college as the training of rural problem-solving. The courses given in the past and at the present at Virginia Polytechnic Institute were planned to accomplish this task of training problem-solvers. The success of its graduates in agriculture and horticulture shows that the institution has, in some measure, succeeded in its purpose. The present policy of the agricultural department is to insist on thoro training in the underlying principles of agriculture, rather than to include many informational branches in its curriculum. Its purpose and hope is to fit young men for every possible phase of agricultural service. The present-day problems in agriculture are innumerable. They include economic questions, such as rural credit and farm tenantryg practical questions, such as studying markets, and the actual management of a farm, engineering questions, such as farm drainage and the farm 'plant or buildingsg social problems, such as the improvement of rural schools and the education of adult farmers. Virginia agriculture is confronted by all of these problems, and many more. The State naturally looks to her agricultural colleges and its graduates for the solution of these problems, and for leadership and direction in her eifort for the upbuilding and improvement of rural conditions.

' These are, of course, inter-related, in that any one course of instruction leading to a degree involves subjects belonging to the various. A The School of Applied Sciences embraces directly the departments of Physics, Chemistry, Metallurgy, Geology, and Biology. Each of these departments includes various cognate subjects, some of which are fundamental in all the degree courses. Thus General Physics and Chemistry are required for all students, X Biological and Geological subjects are integral parts of the courses of Agriculture, General Science, Chemistry, and so forth. Six Degree Courses are ofered in the Applied Science School, namely: Applied Physics, Applied Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Metallurgy and Metallography, Applied Geology, and Applied Biology. The course of Applied Physics is to prepare men for teaching Physics, or to meet industrial demands for men trained in this science. This is, of course, in addition to the general instruction, in the subject given to all students in all of the other courses. Applied Chemistry prepares men for more advanced Work in Chemistry, prepara- tory to their becoming professional chemists, or for filling positions as analytical chemists in technical laboratories. - The Chemical Engineering course, as the name implies, involves the fundamentals underlying all branches of engineering, but also retaining the essential features of Applied Chemistry. Metallurgy and Metallography include theoretical and practical work in Smelting and treating metals and alloys, metallurgical calculations, study and use of electrical furnaces, the constitution of alloys-their treatment and properties, and the application of these points in investigation of the properties of steel, iron, and brasses, etc. 5 and also the assaying of ores and research Work. All of these are important to men who intend to follow mining Work or assaying. The government geologists fill positions of great importance in our country, both to mining and agricultural interests, and are called on in soil investigation and various other lines involving some of our most important industries. The course of Applied Geology is intended to prepare men for this line of work, or for teaching geology. All medical colleges recognize now the importance of a thoro preliminary course in General Biology, and demand such as a prerequisite to entrance into the study of medicine. The course of Applied Biology, aside from its application in other lines, is especially designed to prepare men for entrance into medical schools. This is the generalscope of the departments, courses, and objects of the degree courses in the School- of Science. The heads of departments, and the instructors, with the special dean, constitute the faculty of this school, which is, in turn, a part of the general faculty of the Whole college DEAN SMYTHE I ,EI I i I I I I I ' A . i ' v A 4 - W - gy h A , - - DR- EI-'LETT PROFESSOR M'BRYDE PROFESSOR VAWTER DR.

Competent instructors, in charge of well-equipped shops and laboratories, give 4 the student abundant opportunity to meet just such l problems as will be presented to him in his work DEAN RANDOLPH after graduation. In other words, the student is taught not only the principles of physics, chemistry, mathematics, and so forth, and P the scientific principles included therein, but is familiarized also with the problems of mankind, the limitations of the means at his disposal, and the need of looking always at the value of the end-the accomplishment which is proposed. L The work of any college, or department thereof, must be judged largely by the ability and success of its graduates. If we take these as a standard, then the Engineer- ing Department at Virginia Polytechnic Institute is a success. Its graduates are i found occupying positions requiring keen executive ability and a thoro knowledge of their profession, they are sought by the large commercial engineering companies of the country. The fact that such concerns as Westinghouse and General Electric oEer, ' without solicitation, positions to several graduates each year speaks well for the ability of Virginia Polytechnic Institute engineers to make good. With the installment of the machinery in the new shops, the eiiiciency of the i department will be still further increased. N 'gg 38 PROFESSOR PRITCHARD PROFESSOR PARROTT PRQFESSOR RASCHE FSS!

U Q U 7 41 . 155.555, - v El-'Zigi GRADUATE DEPARTMENT HE graduate Department of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute was organized, in 1908, by President Barringer and the Board of Visitors, with two chief objects in view. - In the. first place, it seemed to these gentlemen that by collecting the various opportunities for advanced and research work in the college into one Graduate School or Graduate Department, under a dean, they would gain the advantage of centering the responsibility for the supervision of its affairs on one man-instead of allowing the responsibility and authority to remain scattered and uncertain. In the second place, it seemed likely that the organization would create a more favorable and stimulating atmosphere for research, especially if the dean chosen should himself be an original investigator. DEAN BARLOW The Board of Visitors recognized the very great value to the college of a weIl-planned and thoroly executed research, and also the importance of encouraging men to take advantage of the advanced work offered here before going out as representatives of Virginia Polytechnic Institute. Since the foundation of the department, the number of graduate students has shoWn'a satisfactory increase. Of course, as-in all colleges and universities, in certain years, when the demand for college-trained men was unusually strong, men who had intended toreturn to college for advanced work decided to be satisfied with the B. S. degree and a position. In other years, the balance has tilted in the other direction. . In nineteen-eleven, two years after the organization, the number of graduate students had risen to twenty-of whom nine were candidates for the M. S. degree. At the present time the graduates of this college have open to them five avenues leading to higher degrees. The degree of Master of Science demands the completion of any B. S. course, and at least one major and two related minor subjects. The possible choice of these subjects is a very wide one, and more men should consider the advisability of making an engineering subject, or one of the subjects grouped in the catalog under the department of Applied Science, the basis of M. S. work The engineering group offers degrees in Civil, Mechanical, Electrical, and Mining Engineering. The college has always followed the policy of finding instructional and other work as far as possible, for men who wish to go forward to the higher degrees, but are unable to meet all the expenses of the extra year or two years. It is sometimes the case that the experience gained in acting as instructor or assistant is as valuable as any other part of the graduate work, irrespective of the fact that such a position maj lead to a permanent one here or in some other college 1 l I il il 1 I . 5 i , I I THE in f UGLE '43 - . -B.i'B.

Well, here is HBRAINSH BARTON. This noble personage was born i,n,'O,hiog but he was too. bright for the people of that State, tl1E1'6f01jE,fil1E has for the past few years made his home in Virginia. UBRQXINSH is one of the stars of the Class, he is completing Eve years' work in four. In addition to mastering electrical engineering, UBRAINSU has always found time to devote to Blacksburg society. As a Y. M. C. A. w-orker he has few equals, and Sunday-School work is one of his greatest hobbies. In other words, HBRAINSH is one of those fellows to whom we look for leadership. 1 ---EC - , 54 - , ,i,5j'3.EQ s - Bio e ..'..l1llill!lllfllllUl.l.lllllllB Q I 1 a I : IS' ' ' ' ' ' ' .

Nothing worries him, even Roy Iay's geology cou1cln't make him buy a book. When FRANKg' with his 1 - l faithful pipe, can not be found around the campus, it is a safe conclusion that he is making one of his mysterious trips to Roanoke. l Why, nobody knowsg but we have noticed that the mail is increased after each trip. Before he matriculated, he was vaccinated against military, and has never gone thru an attack yet. Because of his J good looks and high grades, it is predicted by all who know him that I g ' I he will either marry or make a success of farming. f i , , QT .V - ' - f . - , A Y Wx. V1 1. -5 ,' .

If he had any cravings fd1 'milita1'y honors, they were latent until his Senior yearg and then he 'was awarded the gold braid, and became a lieutenant-quartei-master. A glance at his honors will show that he has taken an active and leading part in Tech activities.

He is a ' I niechanical engineer, and is so desirous of fully preparing himself for ' his chosen profession that he expects to take a post-graduate course.

I K 4 'ic 'i' i Until September, 1913, we' thought that all cabbages were Lough, green vegetables, coming from the ground. But that fall we discovered a new variety, which was a curly-haired, good-looking animal, with all intentions of going into the earth. CABBAGE comes from - Norfolk, and says he is going back there some clay toapply his knowledge of mining engineering, even if he has to mine the harbor. Y He is a. Scribe on mathematics and minerals, is full of college spirit, but shows a preference for footlzall., He is especially fond of girls and good jokes, as his heavy correspondence and ready laugh will testify. Altho he could make a great success in the mining world, we have it on good authority that he is going.to teach English and 4 W I Spanish for a living. fi ' . , D ' ii 'ie' A 'A rye U t 4, ,sativ a Q, - at , W figik-Y at g W I iv, i -n 70 ,- 1 ...fllliflll.l.'lCl.Ul'llIll.lll' U u 1 I ' U ..

Edison, is having all of his apparatus reduced to one-half size, in anticipation of the advent of l1is future c,o-itvorker, SI-IORTYN ENGLEBERG. This abbreviated youth is fsomewhat reticent as to his habitat, but some light is gained from his nick- names-HHAMPTON HANDSOMEQ' or PI-IOEBUS APOLLO? While with us on Mount Olympus, he is constantly to be found at the abode of Nimrod Schultz and Mercury Parrish. During his first two years, Mars was his patron god, but later he changed his devotions to Cupid, and says he is well content with the change. We predict for him a brilliant and successful career. -.1. so -aliesw B P i -- Y It QIIII g l I l :lr O I I I I I D I P I O I I n I I I I I I I U I I I I I I l I Ii I I l I I I I I I I l 9 - ...UllQlIllllQC'llllUlUHllillllllQ , 1 .

While nearly all the large cities claim FISHER as a native son, Rural Retreat seems to have first choice in theflmatter. He is a quiet, easy-going, never-worrying person, who. possesses more than his share of gray matter, and who is always found among the few at the top of the grade sheet. Altho he comes from a district which is noted for cabbage and pretty girls, he does not intend to return to them, for it is rumored that he is to. accept a position in Berlin, where his German will be appreciated.

Beneath his sunny, genial disposition is a wealth of common sense that will take him iar on the road to success. You like him because everybody else likes him, and because you get that feeling-that he's square and the right sort to call your friend. He,is as popular with the ladies as his family will perrnitg and if he only had his heart in his work, instead of in West Virginia, he would make the scribes envious. As it is, PATT distributes' his time between chewing Piper-Heidsieck, gummiug, and starring in baseball and yet when exam time comes around, we find him fright there with the goods We are all proud of PATT -no Class has ever had anything like him and Bramwell will surely have to wake up before he can produce another such. l l l i LD s ' a As u s 7 A ' 'r C i V 9 ' ' , - ,m - - -' -- --' CEE? 78 I . 0 0 S Q gn ii llllillnrlllnlgcfncllnnullllllllij I I l I U u - ' . s , . a I : ,l 'u g I u : : 2 1 n I 0 N a 1 J O I Ho D I I A- , 0 U U Q l 9 i l l I .

The way he has mastered Sammy's HA. C. is almost astonishing. We predict that he will be a great electrical engineer, and will some day make the Kingdom of Amelia the electrical center of the world. 55 - - Q?-tifi?-iifii 1, Y f it Q1 1? l 11 li 31355, J l lr l P i I i l P 4 l l l l u 9 lfl U' '1 u I l u I I l U. 0' ..q.f.IllllllUQIPIIIIUIUICIIIIIII.

Not only along educational lines, but also as a devotee at the shrine of Cupid did he prove a traitor, to his native Stateg and every evening he can be seen crossing the State ii line in the 'iBorder. City. Reared on the doctrine of Boost-that's H Bristol, he worthily upheld the honored traditions of his nativi heath, and none has worked harder for the advancement of olr Virginia Polytechnic Institute. As a ranking captain, he has won highest honorsg in the classroom, he has proved a success, and on the athletic field, he has upheld the honor of his Class..

Among these distinguished gentlemen is GUS.'l Why he is not a Mormon is more than we can tell, for the fair sex seem to be a great attraction to GUS.', It is remarkable to see him show his friends picture after picture, and explain why each represents the Queen of Queens. If he ever stops writing letters and taking pictures, he expects to be a mechanical engineer, althoi he sometimes says he wants to be an army officer. We are inclined to believe, however, that he would rather inherit a fortune, and continue his present occupation. Regardless of what has been B said, all of us secretly believe that GUS will some day distinguish himself as a mechanical engineer. 3iEij:5lEi,E'.5iti. it Y 87 a-..,g,,, ,Qui Y H -V: f .4 , - 1 V A l. it W BE it 1 'i r lllll Q n .

At one time in his career here, HCADETU wore two white bars above his elbowg and, according to our Way of thinking, the military department should have added a third this year: but instead they removed that which he already had. CADET'S hobby is photography. He thinks nothing of staying up into the wee sma' hours, printing pictures. A consistent worker, clear-headed-, kind with 21 cheerful disposition, he is certain to continue the success- in civil life which he has gained here as CADET, We understand that he expects to retire to his farm, in Culpeperg and we know that the good wishes of the Class go with him.

Because of his practice of hitting the hay not later than tattoo every night, IBID Y will enter the cold world with a large store of energy. His attitude 'toward military is to be commendedg his policy is strictly self-defense, and as a result he has clung closely to his Hold fowling-piecefl He has also demonstrated that when his fistic ability is called into play his marks are such as to cause a feeling of neutrality among pugilistic aspirants.

Whatever HSHAGN undertakes, he accomplishes with that same perseverance and doggedness that ,carried him thru French, which he claims is the hardest s1.1bjec,'t,fin the mechanical engineering course. Quiet and unassuming, hefhas won the love and respect of his classmates and friends. No matter how busy he may be, he has but one reply for those who ask his help- Sure! He has one fault, which we hesitate to mention-he is addicted to the telling of yarns about the Coke German Club, 120- pound watermelons, and other equally exaggerated tales. Overlooking this defect, we can accurately describe him by the one word which implies so much-gentleman. 96 oltul lilltllqunlllinnpncllnnihcullllllg g l.

Two years as a private, one as a bugler, and one in the band, gives him a military record to be envied by the Kaiser.

However, we would not question the truth of this adage, for each of the three Classes that we found here upon our entrance has left us a record of their college days, and we find that their four years at Virginia Polytechnic Institute were crowded with events very similar to those which we are about to record as new and unusual. We arrived in Blacksburg one morning in the fall of 1913, loaded down with all the wisdom and dignity which the high-school graduate always carries along with him. Needless to say, both proved unnecessary baggage, for the Sophomores immediately classified the possessor of these qualities as green or fresh, or both, and proceeded from that day forth to express their resentment at every attempt on our part to add anything to their already practically complete store of worldly wisdom. This attitude seriously affected our dignity, and, since the consciousness of our greenness began to gradually take hold of us, we readily yielded to the training offered by the Sopho- mores, and became quite serviceable rats. We soon learned, among other things, that altho we were allowed to hit our downy couches at the time that best suited our individual preferences, our instruction both as to the time and as to the manner of rising was totally wrong, and our tormentors, being of a practical turn of mind, proceeded to demonstrate, by frequent examples, the new and up-to-date method. This instruction, novel as it was, was not wholly enjoyable, and our conjectures anent the cause of it all, upon finding ourselves in the middle of the floor getting the full benefit of the cooling zephyrs from Brush Mountain, furnished amusement for many a midnight hazing party. Our natural fears soon subsided, however, and we began to invite rather than to avoid the Sophomores' attention. This led to the belief that we were not suificiently impressed by the authority of our new masters, and accordingly we were directed to prepare ourselves for the annual rat parade, which was to be held on the first Saturday afternoon of the session. We looked forward to the event with interest, for we had heard much of this peculiar institution, and were anxious to know the whole truth about it. When the time came, we were dressed in every variety of costume, from a barrel to the court dress of a Persian nobleman. The whole town turned out to see the wonderful sight, and after going thru the usual inspection, more than two hundred rats marched thru Blacksburg's streets yelling hog, the new watchword wished on us by the Sophomores. It was perhaps the best parade that had been witnessed for many years, and was as thoroly enjoyed by the Freshmen as by the spectators. Much to our relief, this event ended the initiation ceremoniesg and as the novelty of hazing wore off we were allowed to turn our minds to matters of more importance, except at such times as our new friends deemed it expedient to administer a little chastisement for the good of our souls. Cheer-leader Bowser Bowler early took us in hand, and we spent our afternoons in the bleachers learning the Hokie and the Hullabaloo, and watching Coach Bocock whip the Techs into form for the many gridiron battles that were before them. ,i lf, i l I. ii 4 iff l 4 's W 1 l , 1 f I 1 l lll ..v if , k t 120555 II7 l J i -, THE . Leslie T1 - III H I I I I I I I I 15 In the early season battles, it was noticed that the Techs had developed into a faster and harder playing aggregation than had been seen in many years, and we became anxious for a true test of their strength. This came in the North Carolina game, and when word was flashed back to the Corps that the Tarheels were downed on their own field, the feeling of anxiety and suspense which had prevailed gave way to one of confidence and pride. The University of Mississippi sent their team to Blacksburg, and, altho they outweighed us considerably, Captain Pick's team romped about Miles Field at will. This brought us to the Washington and Lee contest. Encouraged by the team's previous work, four hundred cadets journeyed to Roanoke, hoping to see the Generals out-generaledf' We were doomed to disappointment, however, for the team representing the White and Blue was as fast as our own, and, with the advantage of weight in their favor, carried the bacon back to Lexington, while the followers of the Orange and Maroon journeyed back to Blacksburg proud of the fight their warriors had made, yet admiring the strength of Washington and Lee eleven. On Thanksgiving Day, we played Virginia Military Institute for the first time in many years. The game beggars all description, and when the final whistle blew neither team had established its supremacy. Each had made one touchdown and had failed to kick goal, making it necessary for us to wait another year for the victory we coveted. While we were enjoying the pleasures of home, at Christmas, the elements them- selves, as if to furnish amusement for the Juniors and Seniors, contrived for our undoing. It seemed as if all the snow that we had wished for during the holidays had found its way to Blacksburg, covering everything in sight. For six weeks, the Sophomores kept constant watch over us, and we could get to classes and formations only by veritably running the gauntlet. But the day of the snow battle soon came, and the Sophomores, who had missed this part of their initiation on account of the scarcity of snow the previous year, were exposed to our wrath. Well did we repay them for their cruelty toward us. Little did we care whether our company lost or won-so great was our desire to see the downfall of some chesty Sophomore. The snow-battle was soon forgotten, however, and we turned our attention to basket-ball. That we had a good team was acknowledged by all, but they dropped several games early in the season that we had expected to win. Up to the time of the Washington and Lee game, the Techs had been going badly, while the Generals had defeated nearly everything that went against them. The dope was therefore against us, and the Washington and Lee team appeared on our floor confident of victory, and little doubting that they should add Virginia Polytechnic Institute to their long list of the vanquished. Seemingly, Virginia Polytechnic Institute had gained strength overnight, for they gave Washington and Lee one of the best exhibitions of teamwork that they had ever been called upon to break up. When time was called, the score stood Virginia Polytechnic Institute, 21, Washington and Lee, 19-and four hundred cadets went wild. The sting of that football defeat was from that time on forgotten, and our basket-ball team took its usual and proper place in the estimation of the State's sport-loving public. The baseball record was as satisfactory as had been made in the other branches of sport. Coach Miles and Captain Jones worked hard with the available material, and turned out a nine that was undoubtedly the best hitting team in the South Atlantic division. 4' The close of the baseball season, of course, ended athletics for the year, so we turned our attention to the examinations which were upon us. Final week, with its -- c , - Uliiic I IIS c -,IiI,E.Df1Ei5 - , 'THE U myriads of pretty girls, and with its dances and military maneuvers, soon came, and we enjoyed the occasion to the fullest extent-not, however, without first taking the open-air treatment, which all Freshmen are required to undergo for at least one night. We should not pass over the session of 1913-14 without taking note of four especially important events. Mr. J. D. Eggleston, formerly State Superintendent of Public Instruction, became president of the Institute in 1913. We have the honor, therefore, of being the first class to spend their entire four years under his administra- tion. Due to the untiring eiorts of Coach Bocock, the campaign for the 311,000 Field House was launched. During final week, the new Alumni Gateway was dedicated, and the cornerstone of the McBryde Building of Mechanic Arts was laid. These two gifts to Virginia Polytechnic Institute-the former from the Alumni, and the latter from the State of Virginia-are but the first evidences of the new interest which our Alumni and College oflicials are taking in beautifying her campus and in increasing her equipment. Ii, . SOPHOMORE YEAR , After our short vacation of three months, we returned as Sophomoresg and hardly had we alighted from the Huckleberry than a feeling of great responsibility settled heavily upon us. Another crop -of Freshmen, whose verdant hue shone out as distinctly and as unpleasantly as our own had a year since, were on hand, and must be trained before they became incorrigible, and before their ways led them where no human hand could reach and administer the proper antidote On paying our first visit to the Administration Building, we found Colonel Anding and three new assistants in possession of the Commandant's oiiice. This new organiza- tion was destined to vastly improve the military standing of the school, and we found from the very first that the old and perhaps unnecessarily harsh discipline was replaced with one which, altho firm, was always inclined toward fairness and sympathy rather than toward unreasonable severity. As usual, football was our chief concern. Our afternoons were spent in watching Coach Bocock and Captain Peake train a husky squad which gave promise of developing into a winning team. The early season games were easily won, and with high hopes we journeyed to Roanoke to witness the annual Washington and Lee contest. In the early part of the game, Virginia Polytechnic Institute appeared to easily have the advantage, and madethe first touchdown of the day. In the latter part of the game, however, the Generals seemed to gain confidence and strength, for they -made plunge after plunge down the field, carrying the ball over for the second touchdown of the game. After they kicked goal, there was no more scoring, and Washington and Lee was again the victor. This was disappointing to the Orange and Maroon support- ers, but the fact that our team was hailed as the stronger eleven of the two, even in the face of defeat, and that the score was not a decisive one, gave us a bright side to look upon. The trainload of cadets that returned to Blacksburg showed no sign of feeling defeat, and it may be seriously doubted whether Washington and Lee took as much pride in their Generals as we did in our Gobblers, who had to be content with the small end of a 7-6 score. Much to our gratification, athletic relations were re-established with A. and M., and the iirst game was played in Roanoke. Dick Harvey, duplicating Winnie.Legge's famous feat in the 1911 game, skillfully sent the ball between the posts for the only score of the game. Virginia Military Institute sent an unusually strong team to Roanoke, on Thanksgiving Dayg and, as there was a tie to play off, we looked forward to the game with intense interest. The two teams , - eil? EQEIISI -c - 1 119 'Y l 1 gf' I-3 -- H + U -. .. ... 7 ,.f 9 U battled for nearly an hour, and we were beginning to fear that we would have to. content ourselves with another tie score. This state of affairs evidently didn't suit Captain Peake, for he skillfully maneuvered his team into a position full in front of the goalposts. and, before the breathless grandstands realized what was going on, Jimmy Powell cleverly drop-kicked a 3-0 victory for his team. ' After the dedication of the new Field House and Gymnasium, in January, the basket-ball team became the center of interest. Under the leadership of Captain Powell, the team soon struck its full stride, and gave promise of being a championship quint. A. and M., Trinity, and Virginia Military Institute were disposed of in a very creditable way, but the University of Virginia, who was included in our schedule for the first time in many years, was too much for us, and the Techs were defeated in the last game of the season. - In baseball and track, the seasons were most successful ones. Rarely ever can a baseball team go thru an entire schedule without losing a single game, yet records show that our team played twenty-one games, and that the big end of the score is on the Virginia Polytechnic Institute side of the ledger twenty-one times. Virginia Military Institute, A. and M., Trinity, and Washington and Lee each sent a team to Blacksburg, hoping they could break our winning streak, but Coach Prince and Captain Bruce sent them the way of all the others. The championship was never in doubt-no team other than Virginia Polytechnic Institute claiming the honor. This phenomenal record was due in a great measure to the pitching of Bibb and Treakle, and the stickwork of Bruce. Incidentally, it may be remarked that Bibb Worked in thirteen of the twenty-one games, and in only one instance was it necessary to relieve him. The track tea1n's record was in keeping with the records of the other teams- Captain Chinn leading his team to victory over Washington and Lee and A. and M., and to second place in the South Atlantic meet. At the close of the session, an athletic record of which we were justly proud lay behind us, giving old Virginia Polytechnic Institute another boost toward the athletic renown she is rapidly gaining. The dread of final examinations now hovered over us, and athletics was forgotten for the time. These over, Finals came into its own 3 and the Sophomore Banquet, which to us was the most important event of that glad season, was conducted with all the ceremony befitting the occasion. Half of our existence as a Class was thus ended, and we joyfully wended our way homeward, again putting aside for a brief time all thoughts of classes, tests, and examinations. 'i' JUNIOR YEAR The Junior year is perhaps the most important one in the college man's career, and, realizing this to some extent, we returned with firm resolutions to give more of our time and thought to the things which we had previously considered as unimportant, and to some extent unnecessary in the business of getting an education. That these resolutions were oftentimes forgotten is not denied, but our actions, to some extent at least, showed that our purpose in coming to college had at last dawned upon us. Going to class was not as yet looked upon as a pleasant means of spending an hour, but we did take more interest in that which was going on during that hour. Athletics, however, had seemingly increased its hold upon us, and our visits to Miles Field were more frequent and lengthy than in the first two years. Munsick, of Cornell fame, assisted Coach Bocock in his efforts to develop the forty-five men who 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 11 1 ' I 1 1 1 1 I 120 Zi , 5,515 I .W W -W Q,W f f-- if my A U M, ,THE rg,-4 had reported to Captain Dixon for practice. An unusually hard schedule was before them, and nothing was left undone that would increase Virginia Polytechnic Institute's chances of establishing her supremacy in the East as firmly as her gridiron warriors had already established it at home. The first game, which was against Roanoke College, is considered noteworthy for the reason that the Techs experienced very little difficulty in piling up a 26-0 score against the same team that had heldrus to a tie score in 1914. Encouraged by the evident improvement on the part of our team, much of our anxiety over the battles with Washington and Lee, Cornell, and the Navy left us, and altho we did not hope to win all of them-especially the one with Cornell-our hopes for a small score at Ithaca experienced a decided boost. The other early-season games, which were with Randolph-Macon and Hampden-Sidney, were disposed of, and our team went to Annapolis, to engage with the midshipmen. That the team represent- ing Virginia Polytechnic Institute was the stronger combination of the two, was apparentg and after experiencing the embarrassment of being held to a standstill for the first half, the Navy admitted it, too. Their playing during the next half was anything but football, and we are proud to point out that the Gobblers played straight, clean football, accepting a 20-0 defeat rather than use doubtful means of increasing their score. Most of the Varsity was completely crippled in this game, and we were forced to use second-team men against Cornell. Coach Bocock's team played an uphill game against the world's. champions, and were glad to hold them to a 45-0 score. West Virginia's heavy eleven next tackled our scarred warriors. In a scrappy game, they earned a 19-0 victory. By'Thanksgiving Day, Coach Bocock had repaired his machine sufliciently to present a strong team to Virginia Military Institute. The Cadets gave a fine exhibition of spirited playing, making the game interesting and exciting. The score, 27-9 in our favor, furnishes no indication of the relative strength of the two elevens. This ended the 1915 season, and, while some of the games were disappointing as to score, we swell with pride when we remember that every game was fought with that spirit and snap which is always so characteristic of Virginia Polytechnic Institute's football teams. In basket-ball, Capt. Geo. Cocke led his team to victory over many of our rivals. Georgetown, North Carolina, and West Virginia each sent its team against our quint, but were forced to content themselves with the short end of the score. Virginia, however, repeated their performance of the year before, and defeated Virginia Polytechnic Institute, 30-14. Under the leadership of Coach Breitenstein and Captain Bibb, the baseball team was successful, winning over Clemson, A. and M., and Virginia Military Institute. The J unior-Senior German, which we were privileged to attend for the first time, ushered in another Final Week. Commencement Day brought the usual round of addresses and lectures. We watched another Class receive their diplomas-this time with unusual interestg and we looked forward one year, and tried to picture ourselves -the rats of yesterday, but the Seniors of tomorrow-receiving a diploma! 'i' SENIOR YEAR In the fall of 1916, we again journeyed to Blacksburg-not with the doubts and fears of the Freshman, nor yet with the overbearing superiority of the Sophomore, but with feelings of joy and pride that most of the race had been run, and that only nine short months separated us from the Commencement Day. It early dawned upon us that some of our dreams had not been true to life. The Senior's life is not the I2I I I I I I I I I I IW I I I I I I I I one ceaseless round of gaiety that we had expected it to beg and we soon found that hard work lay immediately before us-harder examinations were promised us when we had gone a little farther on our way. After giving our Senior privileges a good trial, and after allowing the town to give us a thoro once-over while we were attired in our beloved Senior caps, and finding that the combination of caps and privileges was likely to prove a pleasant and useful one, we put these things aside for future reference, and settled down for the last lap of the race. Many of our members had dropped by the wayside, leaving vacancies in our ranks that we were pained to notice. Yet the small minority of the two hundred who had matriculated as rats strove to overcome the handicap of numbers, and by perseverance and loyalty to make the influence of our Class strong for a bigger and better Virginia Polytechnic Institute. We found that Coach Bocock had resigned, leaving his post to Jack Ingersoll, of Dartmouth. With Ingersoll, new methods and new ideas came to Miles Field, and the process of developing the football team was more eagerly watched than ever before. An abundance of new material was on hand, and with the old men as a nucleus Coach Ingersoll soon developed a team that he could confidently send against any of our ancient rivals. Richmond College and Hampden-Sidney were played first, each taking away the short end of the score. The team representing the University of West Virginia was too much for us, however, and our Gobblers were forced to return without the victory for which they had fought so bravely. Due to the fact that Yale had piled up sixty-three points against Virginia, while the latter had to content herself with a single field-goal, the Orange and Maroon supporters were somewhat dubious and fearful as to the outcome when our team battled with old Eli. But when the score-Yale, 19, Virginia Polytechnic Institute, 0-was Hashed back to us from New I-Iaven, there was joy in Blacksburg. The prospects for our winning the South Atlantic championship seemed bright, and Virginia Polytechnic Institute's old place of honor in Southern athletics seemed assured. The Corps journeyed to Norfolk to witness the A. and M. contest, and the things we saw that day only further confirmed our belief that Virginia Polytechnic Institute was destined to make the nineteen- sixteen season a notable one. A. and M. did not score a single point, while the Gobblers were amassing a total of forty. The University of North Carolina presented a strong team to Captain Caffeeg but they were beaten by a 14-7 score. Virginia Military Institute also offered a strong resistance, and managed to score fourteen points while our team was scoring only twenty-three. We were proud of the nineteen-thirteen teamg and to state that we are proud of this nineteen-sixteen team, which represents three years of hard work and consequent improvement, would mildly express our appreciation of the scrappiest bunch of gridiron warriors in the South today. - The Christmas holidays soon came and passed, ending another period of three months which, in the inevitable cycle of time, had drifted into the past. Our goal is now in sight, but he who would seize the prize feels the heavy hand of authority resting upon him, and he is cruelly reminded that much is yet to be done. Another six months, with its responsibilities, will elapse before we can receive the sheepskin from the hand of our alma mater. Thus, most of our life as a Class is behind us. For four years have we watched Tech's faithful sons work with patience and love for her success and prosperity. Now that we are about to join them, we would ask for a double portion of that spirit which is so characteristic of a Virginia Polytechnic Institute many and, entering the great school of life, would give our best efforts toward adding honor to the name of the alma mater we have learned to love and respect. Virginia Polytechnic Institute has made rapid strides since we began our college career, but we do not claim the credit for this. Much of this improvement was accomplished before we had hardly realized it, while we were yet sitting idly by as interested onlookers. Yet we do feel that the Class of Nineteen-Seventeen has not existed for four years without in some measure improving the atmosphere in which we have lived, and in which the succeeding Classes will necessarily begin their existence. 2 -5' iii'-Iifil 122 wwf 5 num mf I -3 x ,L ,L T f' ' NL K v fdwfprff fs., 43 K KR' 4 Ps' UE!!! igfxq 4' -' Qwd A I A A V F721 Ko .

Thru the untiring eforts of Judge Walker R. Staples and others, of Southwest Virginia, the Preston and Olin Institute was made a Land Grant College, and the estate owned by Col. Robert Preston was purchased by the Government and given to the Institute. When Congress passed the 1862 Act, authorizing the establishment of military schools, the principal object in view was the training of the youth of the State in the military profession, and their prepa- ration to answer the call of their country in time of need. As years went by, however, those politicians ?nd citizinsh legs pzgtriotically inclined than ,tie . ramers o t e ct o 1862 insisted on reducing t e CAPT' S' W' ANDING amount of military instruction to the minimum allowed, and claimed ferroneously, of. coursej that military instruction was a minor consideration. The Military Department is presided over by the Professor of Military Science and Tactics, who is usually an active Commissioned Officer of the United States Army detailed for that purpose. This plan has been' quite generally adhered to, and in only a few cases have civilians been in charge of the Military Department at Virginia Polytechnic Institute. The new school was opened in 1872, with Dr. C. L. C. Minor as president, and Gen. James H. Lane, of North Carolina, a hero of Manassas, as first Commandant. General Lane was an able officer, and started the new institution on the right track as to the training in his department. He left, however, in 1880, and the position of Commandant was not filled again until 1885. In July of this year, Lieut. John C. Gresham, Seventh Cavalry, United States Army, was detailed as Commandant, and regained what had been lost by the absence of a Commandant in the five preceding years. Preferring service in the field, he resigned in 1887, and was succeeded by Lieutenant Knight, of the Third United States Cavalry. Like all our other Virginia Commandants, he discharges the duties of his office efficiently and conscientiously. After his resignation, in 1890, the following officers served as Commandants successively: Lieut. J. A. Harman, Seventh United States Cavalry 5 Lieut. D. C. Shanks, Eighteenth United States Infantry5 Col. A. T. Finch, Col. J. S. A. Johnson f1900- 190515 Capt. G. A. Jamerson, Twenty-Ninth United States Infantry C1906-190915 Capt. W. R. Dashiell, Twenty-Fourth United States Infantry C1909-19111 5 Lieut. J. F. Ware, United States Infantry C1911-19141 5 Capt. S. W. Anding, United States Infantry 11914-March 28, 19171 5 Capt. C. C. Carson, Coast Artillery Corps fMarch 28, 1917-J. The Military Department has come to be one of the regular departments in the curriculum, and a passing grade is as necessary for graduation in this department as in all others. To civilians who know nothing of military, .such training may seem burdensomeg but to the student seeking a well-rounded education it is-highly essential, in the teaching of promptness, alertness, and obedience-not to mention its benefit in training the physical man.

X A ' E 1 DUGLE OUR NEW COMMANDA NT OMMANDANT C. C. Carson, Captain United States Army, is one of the most modest men we have ever known, he refuses absolutely to talk about himself or his achievements. Possibly he takes the view that a man should be judged-not by what he has accomplished in the past, but by what he is now accomplishing. At any rate, it was only after numer- ous entreaties and great perseverance that THE BUGLE representative was able to wring from him the few meager biographical facts here given. ' Captain Carson was born April 4, 1876, in Ohio, where, we take it, .he received his early education. He entered the United States Military Academy, at West Point, and was graduated June 13, 1900. Receiving the regular appointment of second lieutenant, he was assigned to the Seventh United States Artillery, and sent to Boston, Mass. On July 1, 1901, a little more than a year after his graduation, he was promoted to the rank of first lieutenant, and was stationed from then until 1904 at the School of Application for Cavalry and Field Artillery, Fort Riley, Kan. In the following year, he was made instructor in the School for Master Gunners, at Fortress Monroe, Va. He received his captaincy July 25, 1907, and was detailed as recruiting oflicer in New York, where he remained a little over-one year. Then, in rapid succession, he served at Knoxville, Tenn., Columbus, Ohio, and Fortress Monroe, Va.-finally going to the Philippines for two years, in 1913. He was ordered back to the United States, in 1915, and was stationed at Old Point, Va. In 1916, he was graduated from the Coast Artillery School, at Fortress Monroe, Va., and at the end of the year was detailed as Commandant of Cadets at Virginia Polytechnic Institute, relieving Capt. S. W. Anding on March 28, 1917. WhileACaptain Carson has been Commandant of Cadets for only a few days at the time this article is being written, he has already won the respect and admiration of the Corps for his manifest interest in the school and its welfare. Not for a long time has so much interest been taken in Military Science and Tactics. The idea that military training means one day's drudgery after another has been dispelled. This revived spirit may be due in part to the wave of patriotic enthusiasm which is sweep- ing'the country because of our declaration of war with Germany, but it is due also in a great measure to Captain Carson's qualities as a leader and instructor, and to his ability to intensify interest in military. He has made a most favorable impression on the students and faculty, which we doubt not will be emphasized as we come to know him better. - - - - , Y A - f-f ,fer Cl, T53 QUE? U 7663 if-. ' V . .

Veterans they were. Nine had been decorated in . V I 1 the nineteen-Hfteen campaign. Every day the number of warriors grew. If 'U Now there were many of those men who are always necessary to make A L , great fighting squads possible-the reserves, and there was a few men new ' 2 to our fields, whose fame had come to us from foreign wars. When once again the bugles, beneath the colors, resounded back to old Brush i , Mountain's slopes, a full company of four-score men were wearing the I grass off the parade ground with their shoulders, and toughening their I A1 thighs in charge and counter-charge. Hand grenades, forward passed , A with force and skill, shot thru the air. Fair-flying mortar shots were 1 punted high and long. Then torpedoes, dropped between the pretended f, enemies' goal, cleared the charging ground, and now the rattled signals crackled with rifled precision-the football squad of Virginia Tech had begun its maneuvers. ' ' P 1 5 1 THE HISTORY 'l A ll 4 J l F A The season is past. Its history can not be fully written, for the great- I I ' ness of such a campaign lies in the memory of those who made it sog and it is only to stir the memory that this brief report is made. The campaign was completed in nine battles. In seven of them, glad victory came to us. In the other two, we fought that we might learn, and l ' with our courageous fighting won our enemies' regard, and helped to show the world that the game is the thing. . The beginning of the campaign was not in the earliest maneuvers. p But as a fitting culmination of his four-years' active service to Virginia 1 V Polytechnic Institute, Capt. John S. Caffee's towering radiating energy expressed in his, Come on, fellows, let's go from here, was the beginning and the continuing cause of the happy conclusion. And then to the Council would we ascribe appreciation for just and wise direction and selection of il li, generals, managing quartermasters, and subalterns. 1 In J. E. Ingersoll, of Dartmouth, we secured from the East a gentle- man we like to bring to the South, and an athletic commander under whom it was a delight to serve. By his initiative, and the co-operation of the 4 7 Institute authorities, a trainer was secured, and Doc Frank Jones did his duty. As ofiicer in charge, Ingersoll had the executive ability of using ye l 'I ir f li I-, QCEECEQC . ' 184 .-- E 1- . -THE sm, g ,- the abilities of other available men, and the season of nineteen-sixteen should be marked as the beginning of great co-operation of all of Tech's athletic resources. I From the faculty came H. P. Sanborn, as aide-de-camp, who brought his Dartmouth and other experience to aid largely in the campaign. Sallie Miles, '06, Hoss Hodgson, '10, preserved the ancient Tech spirit and passed its mantle on to the young warriors with seasoned advice and expert instruction. Parson Bob Nelson and the Y. M. C. A. Secretary were on the gridiron almost every day, imparting their knowledge of the game to the scrubs, and encouraging them at all times. Clayton C. C Hog D Campbell, '03, Thomas F. C Prexie J Clemmer, '16, Bubbles Hodgson, '10, and Winnie Legge, veterans of other Gobbler drives, returned to the old battlefield, and must be awarded service stripes for another campaign. TRENCH WARFARE-Two EARLY BATTLES On the last day of September, the Techs filed into their trenches for the first attack by an invading foe. The enemy was from Richmond College, where Commander had assembled a heavy front line defense. Adapting a strict defensive, the opponents were successful in holding the Gobblers to 13 to 0, and deserve much praise for their hard iighting. Many times the Orange and Maroon was forced to regain the same ground because of penalties. But, a.s trench after trench was passed, the Richmond defenders weakened, and Mack and Lancaster by slashing charges held the ground battered out on line rushes headed by Captain Caffee and Center Rusty Moore. To love your enemy is no shibboleth, when Hampden-Sidney is the enemy. On October 7, Our Own Charlie Bernier sent his fighters to the opponent trenches. Despite their light front, they boldly resorted to flanking sallies, and throwing of hand grenades, but were successful in taking only one trench. The feature of the contest was the scoring of the final three points by Somerville. Using an aerial torpedo with studied skill, his shot fatally pierced the enemy's citadel. THE MOUNTAIN FIGHT-OPEN STRATEGY-MORTAR SHOTS With only two weeks in the trenches, the Techs took boldly to the mountains of West Virginia for experience in the new open warfare. We got the experience, at the hand of one Rodgers and the other members of the University of West Virginia brigade. The ability of the opponents to make rapid and successful change from the vicious charge to the hand grenade, caused Ed. Funkhouser, who was giving commands from quarter, to punt mortar shots. Bob Nelson came thru ingthis work, and established himself as the season's punter. Our greatest losses came in the absence of E o r 'de -- 185 RP. I QI I . I I I I I I I I -In THE g Il offensive experience, and inability to cope with flanking and clever wing shifts. Myrton Gaines, playing with a broken rib, put up a fighting offensive. THE BATTLE OF THE BOWL Honor without victory was the new phrase coined from the expedi- tion sent to Yale, on October 20. The Bulldog was pleased to have such. determined warriors as the Techs, and arranged for another contest in the coming season at once. The result is recorded in the figures nineteen to zero. But these do not tell of the clever offensive of Funkhouser, and the wonderful defense put up by Roden. These two were the smallest men among the invaders. There was not one penalty called against the Virginians g and twice in the second half they held, so that neither Legore nor Neville could pass. ' Two TARHEEL CONTESTS With a full battalion behind them, our seasoned lighters, now with every form of contest experienced, entrained for the coast. At Norfolk, with the added inspiration of a great number of former Tech men, the Gobblers in their exulting strength crushed the weakened garrison from the State College of North Carolina. A -score of forty to nothing is too large to make over our former close rivals, and we wait their recuperation. So far, we are unable to find the veterans of any war who could recall a more powerful center drive than the University of North Carolina exhibited at Roanoke, November 4, against the conquering Techs. Of the five men in our front line who felt themselves being pushed back, back, and then braced, crouched low, and stopped the mighty drive, it 'is necessary to mention Hooks Moore, with Parrish beside him. The big fellow entered the contest with a bad knee, and after the danger was past, the game about won, there was no need to have him suffer any longer, and for the first time in his four years' service he was sent to the rear. The offensive work was largely done by Bob Nelson, with rapid charges. In driving back the North Carolina invaders with a score of 14 to 7, Virginia Polytechnic Institute filled a breach, and saved the State of Virginia from conquest by her sister State in the year of the weakness of the University, who are usually the conquerers. of the Tarheels. Two CHURCH COLLEGE BATTLES What might be called the return of the wars between the State and the Church, was waged in the invasions of Wake Forest and Roanoke Colleges. The units from these schools were no match for the nineteen-sixteen Techs. But, as is always the case with these churchmen, the referee's whistle was necessary to stop their courageous struggles. Wake Forest was defeated 52 to 0 g and Roanoke withdrew with the score 46 to 0. Both games were played on home territory. 'za i ' 186 ii,ijf-Ei -- W -THE ,TA U UGPE. I THE DECISIVE BATTLE Thru thronged city streets, out to the open fields, where for many years past the greatest of intrastate battles have been fought, two battalions of infantry passed. Gaining the field, each battalion maneuvered for position, and after exhibitions of the most excellent military skill, the forces of Virginia Polytechnic Institute took up their position on the western eleva- tions overlooking the field, where the men, selected for their fitness after surviving a most strenuous season, would wage the final battle of the nineteen-sixteen campaign. The defiant troops of the Virginia Military Institute occupied the heights across the battle valley. With at few preliminary rifie-crackling signals and sky-piercing mortar shots, the fight began. Retreating in good order, the Techs care- fully felt out the drive of the enemy, and set the hearts of the reserves and watchers to beating with a quaver, which was suddenly a.nd almost paralyzingly turned to joy, as long, sloping, eagle-eyed Polly Hall swung himself in the lead of a charge that captured points of vantage from the startled but still determined enemy. Finding this method effective, and relying upon that noble line to hold when holding was needed, and Captain- elect Gregory's destructive slaughter of the enemies' best plays, the Techs retreat again before courageous fighting which makes it no longer neces- sary for them to mention Newmarket to show the valor of the Virginia soldiers from Lexington. And when someone had errored, it was Younger who led the second glorious conquering charge. Throwing strategy to the winds, and almost forgetting caution in failing to remember the teachings of former conflicts with the noble foe, the Techs began to slash their way to another scoring. Then, as mysterious as the mistake at Balaklava, a bungle resulted in the loss of half of the previous gain. Furious was the fighting now, and as hearts were about breaking on the observation heights, Virginia Military Institute craftily assumed the lead by one point. During the short truce, the warriors were refreshed, steadied, and 'exhorted by their commanding officer and a hastily gathered council of war. Taking no chances, and relying on short charges, the Techs started out to win what they had really won and lost twice already. Redd was the battering ram that drove the never-fagging opponents from the field even after losing the coveted ground by penalties. And then, with every man of the eleven doing his work so well that the charge became the work of a tank, the solid charging of the ranks was relieved when Somerville added to his usefulness by dropping one of his torpedoes squarely over the enemy's last line of defense. After a few skirmishes, all Techland began to celebrate Thanksgiving of nineteen-sixteen. , - , -.

In his various jobs as Manager, CABBAGE wore many uniforms, as would be required lining the field or representing Tech before managing boards of other colleges 3 but two parts of his equipment he always carried. He always wore a cigar and a big smile. Here at home we had more equipment and care than any team before usp and on the road we had the best. Good luck, Manager! NELSON, ROBERT RODES, Roanoke. Honest, if we thought anybody's baby food could have anything to do with producing as much fast, strong, hard football ability as big, good-natured BOB NELSON carries around with him, we would serve the stuff instead of chocolate pudding. In his first year, this fine fellow has more than filled the great things expected of him 3 and his presence assures continued improvement in Virginia Polytechnic Institute backfields. REDD, HENRY BARKSDALE, Martinsville. One of the Roanoke newspapers, on the morning after Thanksgiving, proclaimed that REDD and SOMERVILLE had defeated Virginia Military Institute. Of course, PUSS insists that he didn't do anything, but his battering in that and other games gave Virginia Polytechnic Institute one of the best fullbacks in the country.

This step was deemed advisablelby the Coach, owing to the loss of a number of men of the previous year's squad, and by reason of the fact that Mr. Bocock, who had previously coached, was to be replaced by a new- comer in the person of Mr. Sanborn, of the Department of Modern Languages of this institution. Coach Sanborn saw immediately the necessity of issuing an early call, for Powell, a captain of nineteen-fifteen, Painter, Krish, Creasy, and Moore, all members of the squad of nineteen-sixteen, were lost to the team from the- start. And with the passing of Engleby, after he had sustained an injury during the football season, another big gap was left to be filled. So, in view of getting a careful line on all the material in college, the men were called out by classes on successive weeks previous to the Christmas holidays. Between fifty and siXty candidates reported for early work, but there seemed to be no Powells nor Englebys in the squad, tho many of the youngsters looked promising for future development. With the advent of the new coach, a new system of training was taken up. A drill in calisthenics and abdominal exercises was chosen to keep the men as wiry and healthy as possible. This proved to be a great benefit, for the men never suffered from lack of conditioning, and once in the game they were never taken from it bcause of sickness or exhaustion- and in only one instance was a man taken out of the game injured. The season's record speaks Well for the condition of the men. Upon returning, after the Christmas holidays, it was found that two other valuable candidates had been lost to the squad, by reason of their inability to meet Class requirements. Others were found to be sufering from the effects of too much Christmas. With these handicaps, the outlook for the season was anything but encouraging, inasmuch as George Cooke, Ben Cocke, and Captain Logan were the only men in college on whom we could depend. But new faces appeared in the persons of Younger, formerly of Davidson College, Wharton, of Richmond, and Wrenn, of Lynchburg. With these men were chosen Benner, Brooks, and Wiegel, a member of last year's squad, to represent the Techs on the basket-ball court for the season of nineteen-seventeen. Captain Logan, who had undergone an operation for appendicitis in the winter of nineteen-sixteen, returned to the game with more fire and dash than had accompanied his work in previous years. His generalship, passing, and all-'round play predominated thruout the season. He proved to be a most excellent captain, and a most efficient leader. F 5 C .491 200 'THE U Q as . .- HQIEE... G. Cocke, who had captained the team of nineteen-sixteen, returned to his old position at guard, where he remained thruout the season. His work was par-excellence, and stamped him as the finest guard playing in South- ern colleges. He met no equal as a dribbler and down-the-floor guard. B. Cocke, tho handicapped at times by slight injuries, proved to be the Techs' most valuable man in many an important game. His dribbling and sensational long shots brought the galleries to their feet on many occasions. His work against Virginia Military Institute was nothing short of' sensational. Younger showed up as a first-class guard, and his work was considered by many to be equal to his predecessor's, tho of a different type. His cool nerve kept the Techs out of danger time and again. ' Wrenn came to the front as one of the finest scoring forwards in the South. His side shots were always true and accurate. On the foul line, his accuracy was unerring. Wharton would, no doubt, have participated in many more games had he not suffered from weak ankles in the early part of the season. He was always recognized as a most dependable man. The services of Brooks, Benner, and Wiegel were of the greatest help, for to them belongs the credit of furnishing such good practice sessions that the Tech quint became the most formidable in the South. With a schedule of nineteen games confronting the squad, work began in earnest, following a preliminary game with Daleville College, in which the Techs were victorious-53 to 8. Following this clash, the training table was made up, and the Techs were in for the hardest two- months' drill that was ever undertaken by a basket-ball squad representing Virginia Polytechnic Institute. After contests with Hampden-Sidney and William and Mary, in which the Techs easily surpassed their adversaries, a trip was taken to Farmville and Lynchburg, for engagements with Hampden-Sidney and the strong Y. M. C. A. quint. The battle with the latter proved to be very thrilling, as the Techs were out to conquer the South's best independent club, and went into the game determined to win. The Lynchburgers proved to be no equal for the Techs, and went down to their only defeat of the season, and the first they had sustained on the home floor in five years. The Techs ran up ten straight victories, by taking into camp, in successive games, on the home fioor, Church Hill, Randolph-Macon, Emory and Henry, Virginia Christian, and West Vir- ginia Wesleyan. Following the most brilliant victory of the year, over the Methodists, the Techs started on their Carolina trip. In the first encounter, the Aggies were turned back, at Raleigh, by the score of 27 to 201 I A 7 A I EEC O 1 ,5 C .

This defeat may be charged to the conditions under which the game was played- methods not recognized today in the world Of sport-and to an injury to B. Cocke, which necessitated his removal from the game. Elon College met defeat in the third game of the trip, but the Techs, weary and suffer- ing from injuries sustained in previous encounters, lost by a two-point margin to Wake Forest, on the following night. Returning to Roanoke, the fast Roanoke Y. M. C. A. quint-fell before the Techs on the last game of the trip. With three victories and two defeats, the Techs did better On the road than any other college team of the year. Returning to the home floor, the Tech Quint recovered their old dash, and tore thru the remainder Of the season without defeat. The University of Tennessee, Wake Forest, and North Carolina were smothered without difficulty-the last two victories avenging setbacks at the hands of their opponents on the Southern trip. In the last contest of the season, Virginia Military Institute was met and routed on her own floor, by the score of 37 to 22. Thus was brought to a close one of the most successful basket-ball seasons Virginia Polytechnic Institute has ever known. The record shows that the Oruintet won seventeen out of nineteen games, for a percentage of .895. The Techs defeated every team they played, and won a greater percentage away from home than any other team of the South. Captain Logan's team won decisively over the best that West Virginia, Tennessee, and North Carolina could produce. It also won from its time-honored rival-Virginia Military Institute, conquerors of Virginia and West Vir- ginia. The Techs succeeded in piling up 719 points to their opponents, 309. This is believed to be a State record. 'I K I I 18. On the following day, the Techs sustained their first defeat Of the I 3.3 I All fic RECORD OF PLAYERS FIELD .

RESUME or NINETEEN-SIXTEEN BASEBALL SEASON HE 1916 team was built around one great pitcher-the idea of the coach being so to work this man fBibbJ as to make him available as often as possible. Had Bibb intended to follow baseball as a career, this policy would not have been adopted, but his repeated assurances that he meant to give up the game at the close of the summer relieved any anxiety relative to the strain on his arm. A steady determination on the part of Catcher Gaines to work as often as possible-which meant in every game-held up that department, and Gould- man, Powell, and Dean were powers in the infield. The absence of Second Baseman Dixon, caused by sickness in his family, meant the loss of at least two games 5 and two more can be credited to one pitcher, whose wildness, and failure to field his position, gave Trinity and. South Carolina first-inning leads that decided the contests almost at the start. One overwhelming defeat, at Clemson, is also to be charged against this man. The victory over the North Carolina Aggies was- probably appreciated more by the players than any other, as it meant the end of a run of eighteen straight victories for the Aggies. Virginia Military Institute was hardly as strong as, Virginia Polytechnic Institute last year, and our victories were deserved, and the same applies to Elon and Roanoke College. Poor umpiring, at Greenville, S. C., made us work hard to win what would have otherwise been a very easy game. Hampden-Sidney, ably coached by Charlie Bernier, who takes charge of all branches of athletics at Virginia Polytechnic Institute for 1917-18, and well captained by Shortstop Thurman, held us to a defeat and a tie, and played us to a standstill. As the percentage of victories gained would have won a pennant in almost any league, past or present, the season can certainly be considered successful, and the same percentage, if achieved by the 1917 team, will be, in the main, very satisfactory. In practice, the team for 1917 looms up with a powerful infield, an experimental outfield of presumed steady hitting ability, a strong catching department, and a fiock of green young pitchers. Some of the greatest judges of the game believe that the pitching is seventy-five per cent. of the team's strength 3 and this department may prove to be our weak point. Again, a young phenom may fiash forth, and carry the burden with only slight assistance. This was the case with Bibb, a veteran in 1916 among the pitchers, and with Gaines, who performed behind the bat in every contest last year. A tight defense, and a fairly strong offense, is generally considered as superior to a loose defense that depends on a few sluggers to win. The offense for the 1917 team will include a sharp base-running attack, for one of the surest ways to beat any opponent is to give him occasion for throwing the ball. As a general thing, when the Virginia Polytechnic Institute man, or men, on bases start to steal, their team-mate at bat will be hitting the ball. A few double plays will naturally result 5 but in the long run this style of offense, which keeps the opposing infield continually on the move, results in favorable returns. If the pitchers will only keep their courage, issue few passes, and make the opposition hit the ball, the team should win a generous percentage of the games. , g ji, , I WWF- THE ' Wnors W1-IO IN BASEBALL FOR NINETEEN-SIXTEEN ERNEST K. BIBB-Virginia Polytechnic Institute's king of pitchers, carrying just as'much courage as he weighed pounds, who loved to serve a curve or slow ball when his opponent was looking for a groover-a first-class gentleman, first-class student, and the main cog in the nineteen-sixteen baseball team. L. MYRTON GAINES-Catcher and Captain-Elect for nineteen-seventeen. Game to a fault, aggressive, and a dangerous, long-driving batsman. Caught in every game on the schedule, delivered the goods, and deserves every honor conferred upon him. Virginia Polytechnic Institute will scarcely forget the battery of Bibb and Gaines. JIMMIE POWELL-All-'round athlete. Virginia Polytechnic Institute's dependence in all branches of sport. Hard, free hitter, played fine shortfield, even with a weak arm, smart player in all departments, a gentleman, and a credit to his alma, mater. Auf 'wiede1'sc7ten, Jimmie! SHORTY GOULDMAN-B9SlL third baseman in the South Atlantic Conference, never shirking a chance, and an almost total stranger to wild throws, good in all departments, a graduate, and a big loss. BOOTS WILLIAMS-Fine natural hitter, great outfielder, fast and smart on the bases, there in the pinches in any game he took-part in. A good boy, and a big loss to Virginia Polytechnic Institute when he decided not' to return. HLEFTYH DEAN-A hustling regular first baseman, could slug, or lay down a bunt. Fine young ball player, who will get even better with age, sincere, likeable, and sure to again play first in nineteen-seventeen if he returns. , FRANK WILLIAMS-Didn't hit much, but most of his drives were timely, good outfielder, and a very clever base runner, very popular. Graduated, and deserves good luck. PAT HARMAN-Outfielder, our young surprise party. A former catcher, he replaced a regular outfielder, did his work well, slugged his way into the hearts of the rooters, and into the 330 batting class. Intelligent, always trying and learning, fine personality. Due to repeat. HCI-IARLIEH WHITMORE-llCh31'll6,, and Doc. Utility man, who played brilliant ball every time. he got a chance. Hard to pitch to, always on the bases, going after everything in sight in the field. A finefearnest boy, who will get his chance and improve his opportunities. But why the DOC ? TOM THOMPSON-A promising lefthanded pitcher, of whom much was expected. Hurt in sliding, he spent weeks in the hospital, and had no chance to show his ability. Back for nineteen-seventeen, and a welcome addition to the pitching staff. We think he'll be there with bells.

Forced into the breach by the most inhuman acts ever perpetrated by a world power, the United States today has taken up the gauge of battle in the interests of humanity and freedom. To forever quash Prussian militarism, to bring to a successful culmination that which she has entered upon, and to bring peace to the world at large-that is her aim. To this end she is calling upon her sons and daughters to stand by the flag and all that it represents. That Virginia Polytechnic Institute, one of the foremost military institutions in the country, should be called upon to play an important part in the titanic struggle is but natural. For this reason many of the activities of the institution have been greatly affected. That other institu- tions should be perplexed by the critical situation is to be expected. It is with grave apprehension that lovers of sport and its followers are looking ahead. - Because of the excitement incident to preparation for war, Tech athletics are in a most uncertain state of affairs. What promised to be an interesting year in track athletics has already dwindled to a mere glimmer. Of a well-planned schedule published at the beginning of the season, only two meets now remain, and it is highly probable that one of these will be canceled. Meets with Virginia Military Institute, A. and E., University of North Carolina, and the S. A. I. A. A. meet were to have been staged. The University of Tennessee and the Virginia Intercollegiate meets are all that remain. ' THE - A -1. Y T-:il f .-7. -,...-fzi-3,3 - U Queeg Perhaps it is fortunate for the Techs that a no-more-prepossessing schedule is undertaken, for in the graduation of Chinn, Davenport, Bopp, Cottrell, and Benedict she has lost five stellar performers and sure point- vvinners. That Captain Parrish, Hall, Peple, and Lucas will show to advantage in the coming meets is not to be doubted. Newcomers, in the person of Wenger, Benner, Wharton, Barbour, and Tyler, will make names for themselves before many seasons have passed. G. Cooke, of basket-ball fame, has shown himself to be a man of much Worth. Other performers of note are Carr, Topping, Graves, Payne, Pierce, Stone, Kirby, Oglesby, and Porter. From the aforementioned, it is hoped a team Worthy of Virginia Polytechnic Institute will come to the front. 2. 1 if s, ' . .

TI-IE EDITORS7 LAST WORD I F there be any special reserved places in heaven, we hope they will be reserved for the Business Managers and Editors of College Annuals-they deserve it. When the Senior Class honored us by giving into our hands the publication of THE BUGLE for 1917, the Editor- in-Chief hastened to extend to us-not his congratulations, but his pro- found sympathyg and We have needed it. I As we put our shoulders to the task of publishing the book, our hearts were fired with an ambition to outdo our predecessors, but we soon found, however, that, beside the limitations of our meager ability, there were many other controlling factors, chief of which were lack of time and money. Days and nights of ceaseless toil have taught us many things, and we could, with our present experience, give much advice to Messrs. Miller and Waller, officers for THE NINETEEN-EIGHTEEN BUGLE. Now that the last word is being written, we can review our innumer- able mistakes and our shortcomings. It has always seemed a pity to us I J. I Il I l I I l I 1 ll I li' A ll I I .1 l P I 6 l Il r that every BUGLE is published by an entirely new and inexperienced set of men. We believe a plan could be worked out whereby at least half the I I staff would consist of men who had had experience in publishing the l Annual for the previous year. r l We realize that the book has many imperfections, for which we crave I your indulgence. It may be that mistakes will appear, much as we have l tried to avoid them. It appears at present that the Editor and the Business I Manager will both be called to the military training camp at Fort I Meyer, Va. If that be the case, the reading of the proof will devolve upon P one who has as yet suffered none of the torments and agonies of the I editorial chair. He may fail to notice errors which would be very apparent I , to those who have collected the material for the book, and we must ask I your further indulgence in this particular. g l r .I ,- - A A A W A I I' .A - W Ir: A ' 274 Q?-5i,J'5ih'1EC -ifiiifi-: 2LE'rf,DE.1- 'C ., QQGPE ' We can not write Finis until we have thanked our classmates and the members of THE BUGLE staff for their hearty co-operation in the work, without which the Annual would have been impossible. We can not hope to. thank all those who have extended a helping hand in time of needy but we appreciate each and every effort made by them, nevertheless. To Professors Johnson, Rasche, and Pritchard is due our appreciation of their work in preparing and censoring the manuscript. Capt. C. C. Carson gave us much help with the photographs in the Military section ofthe book. Mr. Denny, Coaches Breitenstein and Sanborn contributed articles for the Athletic department, for which we are duly grateful. To Miss Denny we wish to express our thanks for her advice and work with part of the drawings. Mr. Sher, of the Bureau of Engraving, and Mr. Cates, of the Observer Printing House, have both aided materially by their advice and interest in the welfare of the bookg and to them we extend our gratitude and appreciation. It has been a pleasure to have served you, Classmates. Once more we request that you attribute the imperfections of the book to our own lack of ability, and not to lack of diligence. We herewith present to you the fruits of our labors. Have mercy!

I panted long for pants, and long pants have since been mineg in fact, I have not only long worn pants but have worn long pants. In the early part of my career I was up to my knees in pants, but the longer' I live the longer I want my pants. My pants are down at the heel. After addressing the Working men's meeting in front of the Field House, I think I will go to the V. P. I. Tailor Shop and pant up. The man in the V. P. I. pantry is my ideal of a practical pantheist. I will now conclude by asking the hand to play a few bars of Only a Pantsey Blossom. For yiwthev' pcmtological p0w't'icuZcw's, go cmd see J. H.
