PEQASUS 1.927 Uol 1 of a. new series Published by the SENIOR CLASS of IDASRINQTON COLLEQE CHESTERTOIUN MARYLAND J. CALVIN COPPER EARL J. CULLEN Editor Business Manager And the curious country people, Rich and poor and young and old. Came in haste to see this wondrous JFinged steed with mane of gold. — Longfellow Foreword X the beginniiifi the Pegasus is small. No annual preceded this one of 1927 to guide us in our policies. We had to establish our own precedent. And we have spent many anxious moments hoping and working for success. From our efforts you have this volume which makes no claim to being elaborate. There is only one distinction the Class of Twenty-seven claims for this work — the members are pioneers. The pioneer spirit begins humbly and simply. So this work. We hope this book will prove an inspiration for classes that follow. Each year the Pegasus should grow bigger and better. [3] Dedication E is Dean of the College; Professor of Mathematics; Secretary of the General Alumni Association ; and an alumnus of Washington. He was Acting President during the critical period following the World War. And best of all, he loves his work. It is extremely fitting that we dedicate this volume to Dean J. S. William Jones as a means of expressing our appreciation of his splendid work, his practical teaching, his dreams of a better Washington, and his faithful service of nearly forty years. It seems almost his heart and soul are Washington College. JOHN SAMUEL WILLIAM JONES, A. L, Sc.U. Dean of the College [5] Contents D 1. Administration 2. The Class of Twenty-Se en 3. The Classes 4.

He has given the old College a new spirit. He has made it known in other states than Maryland. He is a Grade A president of a Grade A College. And we shall remember Dr. Titsworth as a Champion of Country Life. We shall always wish him Godspeed in his work, and under his guiding hand we anticipate a great future for Washington. :«f ■g. - g [8] 1921 PEGASUS 1927 PAUL EMERSON TITSWORTH, Ph.D. President i|i« i ' ii| .i ' ., iiiiiii 11 iiiii ' i!: ' :i!iv ■ ' , Ml ' 1! ,„j 111, [9] tSiiiiiiir 1927 PEGASUS 1927 [10] 1927 PEG AS US 1927 The Faculty Paul Emerson Tftsworth, Ph.D President (Alfred, Wisconsin) James Roy Micou Ph.D Vice-president Emeritus (University of Virginia, Washinfiton) Professor of Latin and Greek Albertus Perry A.M., Ph.D Field Vice-president (Northwestern, Temple, Chicago) Lecturer on the Holy Lands J.

Bozo is a plugger, having supported Wash- ington in sports for four years. His much cov- eted V was earned through concentrated effort and unselfish work. In scholarship as well he is an earnest and persistent worker. Bozman may be short, but his line is long; he never tires of kidding. LILLIAN ENGLAND BROWN, A.B. Chestertown, Maryland. Mt. Vernon Literary Society, ' 23- ' 27. Honk! Honk! Here comes Lillian in her Chevy. By the twinkle in her eye we know she has something to tell us. Brownie is the Infor- mation Bureau for all Hill Happenings. Good natured and smiling, always ready for a good time, her presence radiates good fellowship. iiilnfei ,:i!i ' iiiillli ' : [14] 1927 PEGASUS 1927 JOHN JAMES CARROLL, B.S. Hartford, Connecticut. Mt.

Breathes there a girl with snul so dead who-e pulse has not at one timj or another mis- sed a beat in Jack ' s presence? There are few activities in which Jack has not participated, whether it be social events, business manage- ment, or athletics. This son of the north has won many friends and admirers through his prowess as a basketball star, as well as his participation in other sports, and his fame as such will go down in Washington College annals.

' 26- Hen is a presumably quiet chap with a good sense of balance except when the moon rides high and a pretty girl ride.i beside him. In addition to his being a good student Warren has taken high rank as a football and baseball player. [15] 1927 PE CASUS 1927 JOHN CALVIN COPPER, A.B. Chestertovvn, Maryland. Secretary Mt.

Calvin is our literary genius. Whether it be entertaining an audience or editing the Col- legian he is always there with the goods. He can talk interestingly on any subject — or rather around it. Not the least of his accomplishments hut one which he has not developed to great extent is his gift of impersonation. Originality, dependability, diplomacy, these are. Calvin ' s attributes. ELIZABETH BAKER COVEY, A.B. Chestertown, Maryland. Curator Mt. Vernon, ' 26 ; Treasurer Mt. Vernon, ' 26 ; Secretary Class, ' 25- ' 26 ; Treasurer Class, ' 26- ' 27 ; Manager Girls ' debating Team, ■2S-26. W e think of Elizabeth and music in one breath. She is a pianist of no small merit. Her literary ability as well as her scholarship place hei ' in the front rank of our class. Dis- tinguished in manner and mien she leads dig- nity to any occasion. ■ ' 1 l!lil|!lll; ' ililt. [16] 1927 PEGASUS 1927 MARGARET MALIXA CREW, B.S, Betterton, Maryland. Member Mt. Vernon, ' 21-21; Dramatic Club. ' 23- ' 27; President Glee Club, ' 26- ' 27; Secretary Girls ' Student Council, ' 25- ' 26; President Girls ' Student Council, ' 26- ' 27. Peg certainly gets a kick out of life. She has never been known to miss anything in her college life — except classes. She is the prima donna of our class, having distinguished herself as a soprano. Also, she has played prominent roles in Dramatic Club productions. Impervious to convention, Margaret is nevertheless sympa- thetic nad establishes a point of contact with all who have the good fortune to know her. EARL JAMES CULLEX, B.S.

Tall, dark, and handsome. Earl is at first sight branded as the Shiek . Smiling, friendly, happy all the time, he is the kind of fellow one likes to have around. His good line and over- flowing wit will make him welcome wherever he goes. iiien,.,, j1I1IL,;1!!I;i!!!I!|;: IlKlsilllff l,::,,:!:!!;;;;;;; ;iill!:, [17] 3l!!s 1927 PE CASUS 1927 THOMAS CONOVER CROUSE, B.S.

Crouse is always looking for the best of things. For example, he came to Washington in his sophomore year from another institution. He diligently pursues his duties without making any ado about them and whatever laurels may be cast his way, he takes them quietly. His suc- cessful Managership of the Flying Pentagon is testimony thereof. FREDERICK WILLIAM DUMSCHOTT, A.B. Waterbury, Connecticut. Secretary Mt. Vernon, ' 25- ' 26 ; Treasurer Ml.

Dutch needs no praise. His activities speak for him. As a good All-Around man he has no superiors. To do him justice would take a book. iiiiiii [18] 1927 PEGASUS 1927 CARRIE ALBERTA HOBBS, A.B. Greensboro, Maryland. Mt. I ' ernon, ' 23- ' 27; LeCercle Francois, ' 23- ' 27. Hobble holds the marathon record for good nature. She came to us a shv and blushing: lass in 1923, but now she has adopted all modern improvements, including a shingle. By her sin- cerity and constancv she has won an enviable place in the hearts of both students and faculty. In the matter of scholarship she has attained to dizzy heights. ARTHUR HUMBERTSOX, B.S.E. Friendsville, Mar land. AJelphia, ' 23- ' 27; Assistant Manac er Base- hall. ' 26; Manager Baseball, ' 27; Varsity Club, ' 27; lire-president Y. M. C. A., ' 25- ' 27. Babe is one of the quiet men of our class. Unassuming and reticent, he is nevertheless a conscientious worker. If application and dili- gence make for success he will surely reach the top. Humbertson deserves credit for the earnest effort he has devoted to the welfare of V work on the hill. | i!ili;, S! i;iii|iii;i%;: mfa 1927 PEGASUS 1927 REGINALD WRIGHTSON HUSTON B.S.

An earnest and diligent worker, Huston has with it all a genuine sense of humor, which displays itself at certain odd moments. During his Junior year he adopted the hobby of develop- ing films, but the pressure of studies forced him out of business. As a leader in Y. M. C. A. work he has done much to establish it on a firm basis at Washington. KATHARINE MARGARET KIBLER, A.B. Greensboro, Maryland. Board of Curators, Mt. Vernon, ' 25- ' 27 ; Cap- tain girls ' basketball team, ' 27 ; President Le- Cercle Francais, ' 27 ; Captain Negative Debating Team, ' 2S- ' 27; Representative Girls ' Student Council, ' 26- ' 27; Collegian Staff, ' 2(,-Zl Pega- sus staff, 26- ' 27. Katharine is the Raid Hall journalist. A writer of no mean ability, she has done much creditable work for the Collegian and for the Pegasus. And Katharine is also a basketball player who has played a splendid game for the girls ' team all through the season. Katharine is a worker and stands near the head of her class in scholarship. |;;;;ii f r- ' ' :;■ ' , iliiil i r ll|;,.,,;;t!!i|{;;:; ' } m [20] 1927 PE G ASUS 1927 WILLIAM VERNON KIRBY, A.B.

Inclined toward oratory and dramatics Vern- on has entertained many an audience from the Washington College rostrum. As a debater he is whole-hearted and convincing. His dra- matic ability lies along the line of depicting the romantic hero. He not only carries off the heroine on the stage, but he seems to possess this same ability in actual life. OMAR CECIL LAYMAN. B.S. Hagerstown, Maryland. Adelphia. ' 23- ' 27. Layman has found his satisfaction in the field science, having subjected himself to prac- tically all of the scientific courses Washington had to offer. If he continues in his present intentions he will one day hang out his shingle. His perseverance and stick-to-it-iveness make him a worthy member of our class. 1927 PEGASUS 1927 ALFRED ALBERT LOVESKY, B.S.E. Waterbury, Connecticut. Secretary Adelplna, ' 26; President Adelphia, ' 26-27 Football squad, ' 23- ' 27 Basketball squad, ' 24- ' 25 ; Captain Track Team, ' 26- ' 27 ; K ' Track, ' 21; Business Manager Dramatic Club, ' 21 College orchestra. Al ' s smile is his admit card to the hearts of all who know him. His interests on the campus are varied, including co-eds. As leader of the Collegians , and as an able saxophone player, he has enlivened many a social event of the college. Loyaltv, willingness, good fellowship, those are characteristics of Al. WALTER W. McGINNES, B.S.E. Chestertown, Maryland. V Baseball, ' 23. Mac doesn ' t talk; he expounds. At least that is the experience of Public Speaking 4. He has his opinions on every subject and never fails to express them. He left us once for another in- stitution of learning, but old Washington called him back. Always ready with a joke, Mac is congenial and friendly. ,?iiiiiiiisii;: c;:!i ' L.i™illllilpiill ' ' H [22] 1927 PEGASUS 1927 CORA REED McWHORTER, A.B. Chestertown, Maryland. Curator Mi.

Cora is the Valedictorian. Although her aim is that of high scholarship she has taken part in almost all of the college social life and activities for girls. She is conscientious, ener- getic, and enthusiastic. With her cheerful dis- position (for a smile always greets you when you meet Cora) and with her sincerity and dependability she has won a place in the hearts of her classmates.

All the classes that he has spent in the arms of Morpheus would be enough to give one a fair education. A sailor boy by nature, this chubby lad has seen much of the world in his brief span of years. A traveler, even as Gulliver. H ,. ' ' !i« .J ' lwiiiillillliililli ' ' illfliiiilll ' [23] 1927 PEGASUS 1927 JAMES NELSON SAUNDERS, A.B. Hurlock, Maryland.

' 23- ' 27; Secretary Cotillion Club, ' 27. Hev, Jim, gotta match? Jim is another of our really popular men, and deservedly so, considering his carefree, genial disposition, and whole-hearted participation in numerous activi- ties. He is in a class of his own when it comes to artistic ability. His cleverness with brush and paintpnt are a much-used means of pub- licity on the campus. ROGER LEE SMOOT, B.S. Fruitland, Maryland.

Life is but a joke, saith Roger. But we wonder what powers lie hidden under his mask of irresponsibility and indifference. We know him particularly for two things — his mathe- matical ability and his success as a baseball star. V ' ou are capable of big things, Roger. |l illlini ' « iiiir [24] Siiipih 1927 PEGASUS 1927 CHARLES STRATTON STOOPS, B.S. Chestertov Maryland. Stiatton is a firm believer in the old adage, speech is silver, but silence is golden. His movements remind one of slow motion pictures — except when he is headed toward the cafeteria to appease the inner man. Retiring in disposi- tio he is nevertheless accomodating and sincere and one worthy to be called a friend. GRACE LILLIAN STRICKLAND, A.B. Berlin, Maryland. Curator Ml. lemon, ' 26; Secretary Class, ' 2b- ' 27 Girl ' s Student Council Representative, ' 23- ' 24. Blond hair, a pair of big brown eyes, a mis- chievous smile — these are the things by which we know her. Simplicity is Stride ' s greatest charm. There is so much to say about her that we scarcely know what to write. Likable — love able — adorable. [25] 1921 P E CASUS 1927 ZANERIAX EVANGELINE FUNK, B.S. Hagerstown, Maryland. Associate Member Student Council for Girls, and head of ToiLns iend Annex, 1926-27. Zanerian came to us after having secured an A.B. at Alexander College. Urged by the desire to become an M.D., she pursued for two years here a strenuous scientific course. Only those who are intimately acquainted with her know her real worth. Somewhere there awaits a bright future for Zanerian because of her thoroughness, precision, and cjuiet per.sistence.

Coach Philip C. Brown, former star and captain of the football team at Butler University, took up the football reins and began to inuagurate a new system in the game. Only three letter men returned from last year and the new material was both light and green. So a colossal task faced him in placing a winning team on the field. The measure in which he succeeded is a tribute both to his courage and ability as a coach. The season can scarcely be called successful from the standpoint of scores but a great deal was accomplished in introducing a new system and next year we may look for a more creditable showing by the Maroon and Black. Fred Dumschott, captain-elect, was forced out of the game because of injuries and Bobby Cavanaugh was elected captain. iiSiiiC ■ ' ;3iE :: ::::; -i! ::i ii:; « I « I ' ' ' i;ii!.„:;;iiiiiiiii ii l! i!:;,„;i!i!s!;;:; sM.

The team that showed its heels twice to the University of Maryland and took such savage revenge on Western Maryland and Loyola for previous defeats early in the season was in every way a championship team. The all-around playing of Captain Carroll, the brilliant floor work of Giraitis, the splendid shooting of Carring- ton, the steady guarding of Cavanaugh — they were every man a champion. With Carroll, Dumschott, Cavanaugh, and Seib as regulars from the previous season, Coach Kibler had a splendid nucleus around which to build a team. The task, however, proved harder than he anticipated. In the early part of the season, he continually shifted the players in an effort to find a winning combination. In this process he developed Giraitis, Carrington, Dopson, and Jacobs, who were destined to become regulars and also the fastest combination seen on the court for several years. Jacobs, Cavanaugh, Carrington, Dopson, and Giraitis are all back next year and promise to bring another championship to Washington. Captain Carroll and Bobby Cavanaugh were named on the All-Maryland team, and Carroll was picked as Best Bet. This was the last season for the famous Dumschott-CarroU combination and their carreer at Washington ends brilliantly.

A Slow Motion Story Once upon a time not so long ago, a young man in Washington College awoke, opened his eyes and tried to think. In about two minutes slowly but surely said to him self, I have an eight o ' clock class today. Shortly afterwards he got up and dressed and bathed and prepared to go to class. When he came downstairs he suddenly encountered a rush of students. The young man said, What is the the excitement? Someone replied, The nine o ' clock class is about to begin. Realizing he was late for his nine o ' clock class the young man proceeded hastily to his ten o ' clock class and arrived in time for his eleven o ' clock class only to find that the professor was ill and would not be there.
