Born in St. Louis, January 21, 1845, Mr. Mallinckrodt received his early education in the public and private schools. From there he pro¬ ceeded to the study of chemistry in Germany. Returning from abroad, he entered the firm of G. Mallinckrodt Company, manufacturers of chemicals, the presidency of which he has held for twenty-seven years. Not only in this particular organization has he been most successful, but also in similar companies. And in all his activities he has gained for his colleagues the esteem and respect of the business world. A loyal citizen, he has ever worked for the betterment of this city; a friend of higher education, he has ever had the highest and best interests of the community at heart; a member of the corporation since 1902, he has in a large part gained for Washington University its present prestige. .o To this generous and able patron of learning this book is dedicated by the Class of 1912.

College The Hatchet 1912 0 Senior Class History 1 was a long, long time ago, when the University was four years younger, that the class of 1911 put in its timid appearance on this smooth, green campus. Trembling, holding each other’s hands, they interviewed the Dean and the ever-watchful Sophs, and then went home to determine whether Greek or Geology was more essential for a cultured man, and illicitly to apply the well-known vinegar and brown-paper cure. Then came the numeral battle; 1911 won, of course, but left the icy field secretly awed by the wonderful tactics of 1910. Spring worked itself into every one s veins so effectively that when the finals came in June only the sturdiest withstood them. I he fall of 1908 saw a lessened, but still valiant, band of 1911 warriors, alert for the unsuspecting Frosh. They howled in devilish, though secret, glee when the haughty new-comers limped painfully towards those self-same vinegar jugs that had comforted them the year before. 1912 was always a precocious class and it took a number of drubbings to bring it to time. Again a hard-fought numeral battle ended open hostilities; the Frosh winning this time, but “only because there are so many Fresh¬ men, you know.” Now 1911 turned its maturing attention to society. That year there were two drags, and the whole University envied this enterprising class. Fussing still continued even though there were distant, discontented grumblings from the faculty quarters. The next year, 1911 appeared in its derbv on matriculation day and urged the under-classmen on to more violent efforts. Half-envious, it talked to Jake and Morris and the wondering co-eds of last year’s fight, and made sickly comparisons between the prowess of these fighters and its own. That year 1911 was pretty busy. It had to give a Junior Prom, and the Hatchet bothered Walter Harting considerably; but it pulled through bravely. Assuming a proper upper-classman indifference, it allowed a man or two to draw audiences to Thyrsus’ performances and a girl or two to write for Student Life. W ash inglon University 31 Registration Day, 1910, found an eager class of Seniors ready for their work. As they walked sedately across the quadrangle in their new dignity, one of them noticed a seething mass of men, pulling frantically at each other’s clothes. “And what is that disturbance over there?’’ he asked of ubiquitous Morris. “Well, young shentleman, dats de Zophomore rezeption to de Frosh.” The Senior turned superciliously away, muttering something about “- keeping that sort of thing off the first quad.” About January, the desire to be sociable again seized the class. Suddenly, it realized that five months wasn’t very long, after all, and that maybe that little blonde girl really was as nice as she looked. So it gave a party. It was very successful; in fact, exceedingly successful, and the class-slogan thereafter was “One party a month.” For 1911 realized that things were ending: that it wouldn’t be long, now, that there would be a chance to discover how nice a friend could be, or how much more Stevens talks than Jolley. Then it realized, too. that the buildings, its pet organizations, its particular hobby, would go right on existing long after 1911 was forgotten; that Student Life would still be able to obtain one contributor a week, guaranteed to knock; that there would still be loyal voices to sing Alma Mater in chapel. So 1911 is making the best of its short life. The parting will be bard, of course, but it is not going to inflict its grief on outsiders. It is onlv going to wish that 1912, 1913 and 1914 may have the glorious life at college accorded it, and that they will miss it, first a little, after June. —R. P. W.

It was this class that for two years was invincible in undergraduate athletics. It was this class that won their first numeral battle so decisively and lost their second on a fluke. It was this class that, in September, ryio’, tied it P v n, l ;« k ' T St ? f , Freshnlon that evcr entered Washington. And it was this class that did many other things equally as interesting and equally as important in W. U.’s history. micrcMing ana still 1912 f regation ' have lived up to their standard, and on last veir’s f St rate i Sl ? of r 9 I2 ’ s representatives won their W’s Thn in f °? t . ba ' 1 , ? l u ad, and a member of 1912 is next year’s captain. ic leading part 111 thi s year s Annual was taken by a Junior, and in the cast were several more.

Their co-cds have always been most charming hostesses, and from the time when the University was first shown a real Freshman dance, down to that ast triumph m the social whirl, the Junior Prom, i 9 t 2 ’s social career has been one blaze of glory. It was some Prom. 1912 was the first class to eliminate outsiders and make it a dance for the University and the alumni, and never has this event been crowned with greater success It alone would make 1912 famous. Then there were other smaller parties, dins October the class displayed its originality by giving a bacon-fry” in the woods behind the Gym, and everyone still looks back on it with longing 1 he party on the eve of this year’s numeral battle was another triumph Everyone came in their oldest clothes and had the time of their lives And there are more parties yet to come. But however busy these Juniors are with their undergraduate activities, they do not forget their lessons; otherwise there would be no Juniors. I he brave and battered remnant of a class that has survived after nearly three years struggle along the paths of learning, contains students of renown. The class of 1912 even has its “grinds;” those who come so near to perfection that the faculty shiver with amazement: then there aie others who hum the midnight oil in order that they may still look forward to receiving that cherished diploma on schedule. ' It takes variety to make up a class. - For some time the energies of the class have been concentrated in producing the 1912 Hatchet. A glance through these pages will convince the reader of its worth. It is the book of the century, and was written and compiled almost entirely by Juniors. Even this modest history so brief and to the point, was written by a member of the class of U- , ' nav it ever prosper and reflect credit upon its Alma Mater. ’ ' ■ —C. W. B„ Jr. I LEO MCCARTHY.

You saw most of the tussle on the q uad. This year we Sophs were all ready to welcome our incoming Freshmen, when a thunder¬ bolt fell in the Apollo-like shape of Morris. He came around the Chemistry Building, where we were located, ran up to Vollmar, and shouted: The Dean wants you.” Berryhill was next in line, and he got it too. Morris told the same thing to several, when accidentally he reached our President, McCarthy. After repeating to him the same story, he stopped, showing in his happy smile that he had reached the right man at last. Me went, received the ultimatum, and returned crest¬ fallen, with “no scrap.” The second thing on the program last year was the “Poster Posting.” As usual with our class, we did our work first and got out some classy” posters. Then, a week or so later, we chased Sophomores and shadows of Sophomores all night, tearing down their neat little stickers. Although we los t the flag rush, we put up the best fight of an}- Sopho¬ more class in the last five years. Heretofore the tale of the fight has been a story of the Freshmen ' s prowess, but this year it is a tale of the prowess of the Sophomores and of the Freshmen. Shake, Frosh! You are good scrappers. But don ' t let us confine our attentions to the gentlemen in the class. Let the ladies have their dues. To them belongs the credit for our reputa¬ tion for getting up the “classiest” corners at the Junior Proms. Last year they decorated our corner in red and white carnations four colors), draped it in bunting of the same colors, and arranged it so cleverly that we almost had arguments with the Seniors to get seats in our own corner. This vear it was even prettier—cherry blossoms, made and strung by their own dainty fingers, festooned against a background of red bunting, tiny lanterns hung from a roof of white bunting, and a cherry tree on a little stand. The girls were also responsible for the perfection of the dance that we gave last spring at the Algonquin Club. Of course, it was not their fault that the moon was shining, or that the Club lawn was so velvety beneath the feet of the strollers, but still they were the parties responsible for most of the charm. As for pointing to things with pride, let ns introduce you to our foot¬ ball and basket-ball games. The football game is not our propertv. but any of the spectators will tell you that we had a good half interest in it. The basket-ball series is ours, but oh ! how the Juniors fought for it! We had no other rivals, and had to dig a well to find the Freshmen when we finished with them. —L. A. M. w « ? rn i, _ ,- ? WALLACE R HARDAWAY. BARBARA T. SENSENEY.

Even on the first day they showed a class spirit—the boys by organ¬ izing and preparing for a scrimmage at 8:30, and the girls by arriving on the campus at about the same time, but we were doomed to disappointment and there was no fight, partly on account of the interference of Dean Langsdorf, and probably partly on account of the unwillingness of the Sophomores to engage in conflict with such an angry mob of Freshmen. Washington University 41 Several days after the elections, the Freshmen girls were entertained most royally by the Kappa Alpha Theta Sorority in their rooms. The party was a huge success, as we had such a lovely time and formed many new acquaintances. In order that the members of the class might become acquainted, and that all of the Freshmen girls would surely be present at the Freshmen dance, by the desire of our Vice-President the boys gave a party on the afternoon of November 29th in the Girls ' Gymnasium. In spite of precau¬ tions in keeping the affair a deep secret, the Sophomores found out all about it, waylaid the wagon bearing the refreshments, and a struggle ensued. Owing to the fact that the Sophomores were the first to arrive on the scene of action, they succeeded in accomplishing their purpose. Undaunted by such a mere trifle, the Freshmen immediately ordered more ice cream and more cakes, and although the party started rather late in the afternoon, we enjoyed it even the more, knowing in the end we had accomplished our purpose. Just before the Freshmen dance the Freshmen won a victory over the Sophomores in a very thrilling football game. This triumph added to the enjoyment of the dance, which was given on the evening of December 14th. During the week preceding December 22d, the boys of the Fresh¬ men class were occupied in making plans and preparations for the most anticipated event of the year, the Freshmen-Sophotnore flag rush, the story and outcome of which is too well known to be repeated here, but every one agreed that it was one of the most hotly contested class fights that has ever taken place at the University. Last, but by no means least of this series of events, was the party given by the Pi Beta Phi Freshmen for the girls of the Freshmen class. This took place in the Pi Beta Phi sorority rooms on the afternoon of February 17th. It was an informal affair, and was enjoyed immensely. With the coming of spring, so rumor has it, there will be many other entertaining affairs; but these we must leave for next year ' s “Hatchet” to record. —V. P.

There is no hope. In fifteen years Alexander will emerge a free man, after ten years ' servitude in the Indiana Pen. because of a slight mis¬ understanding about a $10,000 bill found in his possession by a common policeman. Buschart will receive considerable notice in the newspapers of 1925 as being the first man in the history of the world to rob 19 banks at the very low rate of $11.46 per bank. Cave will be hung in about 15 years for killing 19 women and ir children, with one ax, in a small village in Pennsylvania. lie will not be pardoned. Crockett will gather together $200,000 selling counterfeit government bonds, after killing the counterfeiter, before being caught. After serving his sentence for counterfeiting he will be hung for the murder. Deible will continue his nefarious practice of stealing pennies from newsboys until he reaches the ripe old age of 96. w hen he will go in for larger game. Pisse will live a respectable cosmopolitan life, lie will spend consider¬ able time in ' ew York, Poston, Kankakee, St. Louis and Denver. He will be sued for divorce by his Denver wife, and later will be prosecuted for bigamy by all his wives. Hafferkamp will, 12 years from date, beat an old man with a baseball bat, and will be lynched for the murder by a mob. The old man will recover. Harvey, after a successful career, will be caught with the goods and will be convicted for making moonshine whiskey. Heieck will advance rapidly in his profession and will go down in the police annals as a wonderful second-story man. He will reform after discovering, with some disgust, that he has been arrested for robbing his own house. (fonts will become a great swindler and will be most proficient in persuading people that a certain stock will jump 10 points next week. After amassing a few millions he will be convicted for forging a check, and will spend the rest of his life in jail while his wife will spend the money. Jackson will nearly be elected to congress after buying 500 votes. His case will linger long in the courts, but they will get him when his monev runs out, and he will become an excellent shoemaker at Tefferson Citv. ‘ W ash inglon U n i v e r s i t ]! 5:i No one will suspect Clarence King of being a successful Raffles until, in the height of his career, he will carelessly present a lady the diamond ring which he had stolen from her the day before. After looking over his books, the auditing committee of the bank will commend Lacy for his neatness and penmanship, and incidentally will ask him to produce some $13,000, which Lacy will be unable to do—with the usual result. London will make a specialty of robbing jails and court houses. He will become famous for stealing his own Bertillon records, but will be con¬ victed by finger prints left on the neck of a man whom he choked to death. Marsalek’s specialty will lie organizing correspondence schools. The course will consist of plain and fancy burglary, bail bond jumping, and plumbing. He will move his headquarters to Leavenworth, Kansas, after five years of success. Miller will become an expert in stealing, disguising and selling auto¬ mobiles. It will be his boast that he has driven every make and variety of machine hut one, hut he will finally get a ride in that, hut they won’t let him drive in when they take him to jail. McNaughton will make a comfortable living moving about from place to place, burning his houses and collecting the insurance. He will escape by burning the jail. Ed. Mitchell will become Treasurer of an insurance order, and will live sumptuously on the surplus. 11 is specialty will be jewing down the widows and orphans of the deceased and pocketing the difference. Sidney Overall is to be the inventor of a machine to read people’s thoughts. After reading a person ' s mind he will sell back the thoughts at a price. He will be convicted by his own machine, having carelessly left his thoughts in it when he was arrested. Sam Leavitt will make a fortune selling canned meats which have been rejected by the Government. He will accidentally eat some of this meat and suffer severely with ptomaine poisoning, but will live to serve his sentence. Shifrin will gain notoriety by selling stock to the Filipinos in a company organized for the purpose of filling codfish balls with cotton. He will serve time in a Philippine jail and will live to regret he didn’t try it in the United States. Peters will live comfortably on legacies left him by very old ladies for the purpose of building homes for sick cats. Salkey will discover an original method of evading the postal regula¬ tions in the sale of worthless articles by mail. Schwartz will fall into coal holes, down elevator shafts, and before moving automobiles, a nd sue for damages. He will become very rich and his widow will collect the last judgment.

Every law school its Junior Class; Every class has its geniuses As well as the proverbial ass. HERE is no reason why, as the curtain rises on the class of 1913 of Washington University Law School, we should be any exception to the rule, and in fact we arc not, unless having an exceptional abundance of genius could be called exceptional. The class entered about eighteen strong, a number which marks the smallest law class that has entered Washington University for years. This is due to the advanced requirements required for admis¬ sion that went into effect this year. As we first assembled in the bare, bleak room of the Junior Class, our knees played the tune of Dixie, while the Dean marched back and forth, as does the fierce lion but recently placed in captivity, shouting: “E Pluribus The Hatchet 19 12 58 Unum, and ‘‘Absque hoc.” Then we came to realize we had reached at last the hall where our chosen profession was to he dealt out, and our hearts heat faster as we opened up another notch and let a little more gasoline flow into our fast-cooling cylinders. Daily recitations soon began, to which, in our innocence, we had been looking forward. At once did the terrors of the Dean and the terrors of the faculty vanish into space, and there loomed before us a more tan¬ gible terror of torts, contracts and pleadings. The favorite roost of many of us became some conspicuous branch of the well-filled tree. The recol¬ lections were enhanced when Xmas had come and gone, and the examina¬ tions of the semi-annual period were upon us. All got through, but many a brave would-be judge was so badly wounded that he was found lagging ’way in the rear with a fifty or sixty to cheer him on. Cut to those who lagged, and to those who came through with a thud, there were the glorious days to recall, as when Heieck ran for President of the Oratorical Society, and when Sale’s lip dropped a foot as he read bis name as num¬ ber one on the rear end of the criminal law grades, posted bv the Seniors. He immediately thought of petitioning the Dean, but Clark advised him that a general demurrer would be a better remedy. On the gate of his Inferno, Dante inscribed the fateful words: ‘ ' Aban¬ don hope, all ye who enter here.” But herein does the gate through which the Junior lawyer enters upon his judicial career differ from that described by Dante: Over his gate hope sheds a golden light at expectancy, which becomes more and more a realization as he passes onward from month to month. Trials are forgotten: work becomes its own reward: discipline begets development, and the sure passage of time brings the humble Junior nearer and nearer to the object of his ambition and the summit of his hopes—the first day of the middle year. —G.

Washington University 73 Senior Class History N the fall of 1907 a body of men numbering about thirty-five came to St. Louis for the purpose of attending the courses in medicine at the renowned seat of learning known as the Medical Department of Washington University. The bitter fact that they were merely Freshmen was made known to them in a manner both decisive and severe. So they were then assigned their work; and with a whoop which rose on high, they carved the dogfish in the eye; their backs they bent with eager hope, to see things through a microscope; they gazed all day at sections thick of embrvos, both pig and chick. And in the chemical department, then, they studied hard old Hammerstein : themes and theses long they wrote; that poor old cuss thev did misquote. In the laboratory from each one’s bench there rose a most obnoxious stench; the gang upon their pipqs did seize, with brimming eyes their souls to ease. They built long chains and squares and rings, to each C atom tied strange things; with H. Cl. and C. H. n they filled up each affinity, until the whole, yea verily, was like unto a Christmas tree. Imported dope from laboratories quite foreign was hammered in bv Dr. Warren; so thus the year in chemical did pass, with many trials for the class. These Frosh then went to further doom, into the dark dissecting room, where Ferdinand the king, ' tis said, ruled o’er this sanctum of the dead. Herein they toiled full many a day, to grind into their matter grey the mystic lore of what was in that strange old shell that ' s called the skin. They saw the muscle alleged the strongest, also the one we know the longest; they saw the colon go up and down, and marveled much at what they found. Why does the recurrent nerve recur? the question did to them occur; and does the great sciatic sigh—if so, when, and also whv? Besides these things they learned so well, they acquired a most unholy smell, so that at the festive board each night theirs was the onlv appetite. The ligament of Gimzcrnat they saw and greatly marveled at; also the quadriceps extensor bursa, and other things with names much worser, till came the lookcd-for time whereat they said farewell to old Anat. At the opening of the second year when they again came together, old friendships were renewed, and they stood about and gazed; and a great murmur went up and they inquired among themselves, saying: “Where 74 The Ha lc he l 1912 are the absent ones ? for lo! some were absent. They shot the dope into the frogs, and havoc wreaked among the dogs: the turtle’s heart was made to serve the bidding of the vagus nerve. The stilly night again they stilled, for many tom-cats there they killed, in their wild hopes to scrawl their names high on the walls of the Hall of Fame. And back upon the second floor, as timorous as in days of yore, they went with much apology to start bacteriology. They stained themselves full many a hue, with dyes of red. likewise of blue: to color the bugs they strove in vain, but no two slides would look the same. I hey saw a great many things, and among some of these were : the bug shaped like a coffee-bean, the one with whom life was no dream: in view of the misery he could cause, thev marveled that he had no claws. The one that had the cork-screw shape did make them stand with mouths agape: and thereupon oaths they did take his full acquaintance ne ' er to make. On Path, they also ground and dug, with consternation on each mug; brownish-blacks and pinkish-blues with other shades they did confuse. They looked mit de ocular and out did crv. “I know just why this gink did die! Cloudy swelling is evident here, also cirrhosis from copious beer.” Long P. M.’s they did attend, and departed resolving their ways to mend, lest to such a lowly end out of life they would descend. In the third year they returned because they were needed; there were many chesty ones among them; yea. verily, these same were bureaus of information; they called the professors by their first names (in their absence) and helped themselves to their own grub in the cafe that before their advent was run bv Grandma. They kept the same dean. Osier. Holt, and other tomes, nightly were read in many homes. From Crossen they got many views, and over da Costa they did snooze. When from these efforts they did tire, to the topmost floor they would retire, where the dear old epidiascope to snore in peace afforded hope. They learned to juggle most ponderous grips, their shekels they wasted on purposeless trips: at night they were rousted from cosy, warm bunks to answer the calls of the neighboring skunks. Most of their nickels they spent on the phone, beseeching J. Vaughan to let them come home: “You ' d better remain,” was his usual reply, and back in the feathers the doctor would hie. And into the clinics they did fly, and lectures they heard both long and dry, until each tuber ischii grew calloused and loudlv for help did cry. In the fourth year each carried in his pocket a P. D. hvpodermic and Washington University i 5 a thermometer pinned on his vest where all could see. And they spoke lightly of their achievements, saying: I saw six operations last summer and also held a retractor. None pined for the out-clinic as at the start; the cutting of classes became a fine art; the matinee business was thrice- fold increased, and the entire bunch from their labors ceased. Attired in spotless cap and gown, in the operating room did stand around; and ever anon when things looked blue, a dinky dressing they would do. In the wards they acquired the art to chat with the nurse while they stalled with a chart; confiding to the fair one in undertone, that for them they’d surely leave their home. But alas! for these days of enjoyment so free, in the spring were cut short by the stern faculty: with hospital quizzes and the state board exam., these Seniors were made both to sweat and to cram. They got out their text-books, all covered with dust, and each from his belfry did clear out their rust: John D. did wax wealthy, his nil rose in price, as these ardent Seniors’ sheepskins would entice. The strong and weak alike did fall: now hypochondriacs were all; the cracked pot sound was plainly heard in each chest of the entire herd. But stupefying to relate, each one steadily piled on weight; they waxed obese on Grandma’s hash, while the United Railways got their cash. A little while longer did this motley mob hang around in the clinics and loaf on the job; at last his diploma each one home did tote, and the poor dear old public again is the goat. J. B.

Wood Junior Class History ■ HERE were many changes in the personnel of our class at the opening of the session of 1910-rr. Some of our “old pals were missing, and then there were some strangers in a strange land among 11s. Austin Flint Barr went back to his first love, his constant love, the great Bellevue Medical School of X ' ew York. Walter Frank, Morris Pemberton, Paul Baubeneck, Johnnie Weber, “Shrimp Howe, George Pittarel (that bloomin’ “Southena ), Slim Heinburger, Shorty” Finch, anil Ray Valentine departed to schools and realms unknown to pursue the uneven tenor of their ways. However, we have some consolation in the fact that we picked up a very desirable little bunch of embryonic doctors from other Medical schools. Jack Flovvry, of St. Louis University, first came to go to school with us, and then won a place in the kind regards of all. Ernst and Whit- side were other cases in which our sister universities’ loss was our gain. Big-hearted and whole-souled V eaver came to us from Drake, and those of us who know him best appreciate the broad and genial love of mankind which has already endeared him to many. From Indiana University came Gorham, and the wonder and the admiration of the girls has been his ever since. Then McCIurg, Reed, Gilpin, Judge and Green, all from universities in the Mississippi Valley, have joined our ranks. Beside these welcome strangers, two old comrades dropped through our skylight from the class above. An unfortunate but unavoidable chain of circumstances caused them to lose their credits for last year, and we profited by their misfortune, and welcome Geo. Watkins and Mcrril Smith among our numbers with open arms. 1 o attempt to detail the happenings of our class in chronological order is too much of a task for vonrs truly. It is enough to say that we entered school at a time of change and that the heavy schedule which we have been carrying has kept our noses very close to the grindstone. Being so busily at work, our years have made up one peaceful family, and our history is not a lurid one. _y y G. E. HOURS. Class Officers President .... Vice-President . Secretary-Treasurer .

Therefore, I must start at once to outline in some brief manner the doings” of the class of 1913. The first and foremost duty of the Sophomore class is to see that the Freshmen are well taken care of; given a hearty welcome, to show them with what appreciation their entrance into the school is attended; but inasmuch as there is no glory in forty men wiping up the earth with twelve, the Sophs let the Frosh alone and completely ignored them. In the early part of December the class was given a most pleasant surprise in the form of a letter received from Mr. C. -A. Stewe, in which he especially asked to be remembered to Messrs. Burger and Slocumb, but he also sent his regards to all of his former college chums. In this letter he informed us of his recent appointment to the chair of Physiology at the University of Pennsylvania. I feel cpiite certain that all who are ac¬ quainted with Prof. Stewe will appreciate the fact that his entrance into the field of medicine will prove a great advance in scientific investigation. We may well feel proud that such an eminent man was for nine months a student at our University. ' Pile next thing of consequence which occurred in our class was the inauguration of what will, no doubt, become one of the greatest Medical fraternities in existence. It is known as the Shirt Tail Fraternity and has as its charter members Messrs. Burger, Spangler, Hein, Perrings, Bell and Goodrich. Although its workings are secret, it seems as though its main object is to equip the bacteriological laboratory with dust rags derived from degenerated shirt tails. On February 3d the class received a great surprise in a paper pub¬ lished by Mr. Larimorc of our class, who has for some time been doing research work on the various blood cells. In his paper, “The Length of Life of a Red Blood Corpuscle,” he confirms the work of Traube and Herring. —L. R. S. SOPHS IN ‘ ' LAB. ROBERT VINYARD, PRESIDENT.

Squibb Robert Vinyard The Hatchet 1912 Freshman Class History ERE is the array of talent with which the Medical School lias decided to perform an experiment, for we are an experiment, with a big X. We are proving to the world at large that out here in the wilds of Missouri one can run a Medical School with college men for students. It is not a small undertaking. Some people scoffed when the faculty proposed such a measure, but the outcome has proved successful. We are small in numbers, but that matters not. In learning, in brilliance, in all those qualities which go to make up a successful physician, we are so far ahead of the rest that the Seniors have a hard time to keep from taking off their hats and addressing us as “Sir.” To begin with, we were not always small in numbers. Early in Sep¬ tember the young men, desirous of attaining medical learning, girded up their loins and set out for St. Louis. They came in swarms and droves. They besieged the Registrar’s office, they sat outside on the steps, they waylaid people who looked as though they might have some authority, and begged and prayed that they be allowed to come to Washington, but the Registrar was adamant; he was determined that the men who would represent the new Washington should be efficient men ; so, of the eighty- five applicants for admission, we fourteen stand out as the most witty, wise and intelligent of Washington University! Wonderful, is it not? Also there are men among us who are already distinguished. There is Denison, who undoubtedly knows it all. Dr. Emmel believes everything he says. Dr. Marriott would like to, but can’t bring himself to it. There is “Gastropnemisus” Jackson, who loves the li. N. A. There is “Cerise,” alias “Gorilla.” There is Balsley, the billiard champ., and others who also deserve the limelight, but space forbids. We venture only one prediction: if y oil, gentle reader, should fall sick ten years from now and should hesitate about a doctor, pick up this “Hatchet” and glance at the roster of the Medics of 1914. Pick one of them. He will be the best doctor in th e world, with the exception of the other thirteen who grace the list. FRESHMEN MEDICS. 84 The Hatchet 1912 JOHN HANGER KENNERI.Y.

Like all things, we had our beginning, which dates back to October 6, 1908. It was a jolly and joyous bunch of good fellows that formed the class of 1911, and Dean Kennedy will join in with the other members of the faculty in saying we were alive and kicking from the very start. Our assemblage represented many states of our union, from New York to the wilds of Arizona. Russia sent as her representative Mrs. S’Renco, while Greece was heard from in the person of Mr. Alepian. During our first week of school we were particu¬ larly impressed with the fact that there were two distinct classes of men among the know it alls.” One class was a chesty, over-confident bunch of self-important personages; the other was more dignified, pious and human-acting like.” Needless to say. we soon learned that the wise ones (in their own estimation) were the Juniors, while the conservative were the Seniors. In due time it dawned upon us that in order to have strength we must have organization, so a meeting was called and officers elected. Each student ' s popularity was in proportion to his dental mechanical knowl¬ edge, and Cleveland having been born in the dental office, had it on the rest of us, and was duly elected President. Barrett could roughly describe why he had teeth, so he was chosen Vice-President. Miss Jeans could distinguish between a saw and a file, and was chosen Secretary. Will knew a pair of forceps when he saw them, or at least said he did, so the office of Treasurer was easy. Barker had once remembered seeing a dentist, and also possessed physical strength a la Hercules, so he had a walk-over for Sergeant-at-Arms. After this usual procedure everything moved along nicely, and all classes were in perfect harmony until a mass meeting of the classes was called for the purpose of organizing a noise-gang,” to make a fuss at the season’s football games. During the meeting, while a Freshman was mak¬ ing a most valuable suggestion, a Junior dropped his pencil, and this annoyance, plus indications of lack of respect for one of our number, so angered 11s that in less than ten seconds a magic result had taken place, and when the smoke of battle had cleared away the Freshmen were in charge of the entire school. The rest of the year we remained masters of the situation among the classes and everything was ideal. Our Junior year was brightened by the removal to new quarters and all returned happy, after a pleasant, idle summer vacation, with the excep- Washington University 95 tion of Mr. Yates, who went to Los Angeles, and Mr. Alepian, who went to New York; both, however, continuing the study of dentistry. We heartily welcomed his honor, Mr. Mull Webb, and his royal highness, Dutch Wilson, from St. Louis U. Needless to say, we remained dictators among the classes, and every student took a great interest and studied wary, wary” hard (the night before). Senior Year! At last we are Seniors. Upon entering school this, our final year (maybe), we all took a pledge to study harder than ever (at times). We all realized that we knew nothing of dentistrv, so our chief aim was to get extremely busy, that we might be able to join the ranks of the graduates. “One instant only is the sun at noon. At the sun’s decline of our joyous college days we stand at the parting of the ways. It seems but a day since we first assembled, so pleasant has been our companionship, but now we must each to the other bid goodbye, and to some farewell for¬ ever. We must leave our dear old Washington. As we enter new fields, let us so set our ambitious sails that the breezes of honesty, courage, loyalty and sympathy may ever keep us directed from the rocks of failure. Let us so live that we will always reflect credit on our Alma Mater, and that each of the others can proudly say, “He was a classmate of mine.” —H. S. L. SENIORS IN CLINIC.

However, on account of lack of funds our Treasurer has not been able to display his financial ability. Our class room trials and tribulations have been similar, perhaps, to that of every preceding class. In anatomy each one wonders which bone Dr. Moore will be most inquisitive about and hopes that the other fellow will be allowed to exhibit his knowledge of anatomy. It is much easier to hide a faulty knowledge when the other fellow does the talking. The weather barometer for Chemistry exams, is located in the base¬ ment, or loafing room as it is called. At the approach of these storms each Freshman is found excited and flustrated, trying to collect his scat¬ tered flock of loved ideas. The noise and confusion of one of these mass meetings would do justice to a much larger class than ours. The winter is over and the end of our first year is at hand. In a short time we will scatter out for a brief vacation. Here’s hoping that by the close of next year we will have spent as successful and profitable a vear as the present. —R. A.

The mere mention of our name calls up visions of Bohemianism, of youths and maidens with unkempt hair and outlandish clothes. Yet, we are not as queer as folks would have us. When we go up to visit you who live on the hill above us, we realize how stately are your towers, how lofty is your reason. When you come down into the garden where we live we wish you to see in us something better than jolly, rollicking, care-free Art Students, most of whom wear very dirty aprons, old automobile coats preferred. We wish to show you that we have high ideals, that we are really sincere in our work. Sincere, because we would rather be Art Stu¬ dents than anything else in this whole world. You ought- to hear about our ideals. Some of us intend to be illus¬ trators, others decorators, still others master painters. Indeed, we have students working for most every aim in art, from those who go about dreaming of Velasquez and Titian, to those who would be followers of Remington. There are among us, people who live in hope of invading Europe some day, of swooping down upon the galleries of Spain and France and carrying off the secrets of the great painters. These students torment the unfortunate keepers of old book-stores by insisting upon rooting around among their magazines, burrowing after old prints, look¬ ing perhaps for a reproduction of the famous La Infanta” or for a couple of treasures from Jules Guerin. Then we have a few little cow-boy artists. Perhaps you have seen them swaggering about your fields. They wear slouch hats with rattle-snake bands and about their throats gorgeous bandanas. ’Tis a secret, but we know that they carry loaded pistols in their belts, and now and then pick” a pigeon or two off your roof, just to keep in the practice of sharp shooting. They worship horses and were even known to make a drawing without a broncho in the composition. This band of idealists have organized among themselves a club for Art and Art Students alone. Have you heard of the P. S. U. ? Now, most outsiders are very curious to find out just what the letters P. S. U.” mean, but we members are not allowed to tell that. Would it be well 108 The Ha t c h e l 1912 to offet a few Iiints, to say that our club was begun for the purpose of improving its members by promoting sociability in the school? Toward that improvement we have done little as yet, ' tis true, except that we have collected enough dues to support a pianola and to keep the Lecture Hall floor so smooth and glassy that visitors, who come on Tuesday to hear out lectures and see our lantern-slides, do some fine slipping and, to keep from falling, much groping in the dark for chairs. We have had one party, one truly pleasant dance, and have planned the most wonderful masquerade. In all this, our work and our play, we have been trving, as dutiful Art Students, to do our best. Indeed, we believe firmly that in our play we have excelled the records of former art school years. Students of by-gone days may extol their treats and kettle-rollings, but they never dreamed of spreads as sumptuous as ours, or of such pitch-battles as we have in subduing and starving back antiquers. It would be gratifying if we could say that in our work we had made an improvement over other years. To intimate this would be very conceited and not true, perhaps. But we believe that in a sense we have raised the standard of the school, if not bv our direct achievements, by the general spirit toward work. The majority of students have come to know more about true Art, and to appreciate better all things artistic. For this enlightenment we have, of course, to thank our good instructors, who have labored so earnestly that we might not go astray. But all of us, teachers and students alike, realize that much of it is due to our environment. We appreciate the fact that every beautiful thing about us, from the flowers that grow in our own gardens to the cultured presence of the University, have inspired us to greater efforts. _y y 1910 FOOTBALL TEAM.

Berger W ash ington University 113 Review of the 1910 Football Season the conclusion of the 1909 football season it was the general opinion that next year’s team would be a wonder. Not only would Washington win the Missouri Valley championship, but she would win it in a most decisive fashion, said the “wise.” TT . . . len practice started, a week before the opening of the university in September, Coach Cayou remarked that there would be some research work in football at Washington during the season ot 1910, and that there would be many candidates for advanced degrees. Nut again twas not to be. The elementary principles of football had again to be demonstrated. Nipher, Dm r and Bryan failed to become eligible: Hagin was too busy with Ins Senior medical work; Howe left the University, and Wilson showed anything but an inclination to work for the team, ' consequently Coach Cayou began to build his team from the raw material at hand. .. . . r : wa s not a man who was not more than willing to work, and all did their best, but a football team can not be built up in one vear under the existing conditions. All of our recruits toiled faithfully anil conscien¬ tiously, and too much praise can not be given them. They and Coach .Cayou worked under difficulties which very few realize. It was a Hercu¬ lean task to have all the team on the field before five o’clock, and it was only a matter of halt an hour or so before it became too dark to practice. he men from the Dental and Medical departments were brought out in automobiles, but never could the whole team be present before five o clock. Anyone familiar with football knows how little can be accom- HEEI.Y KICKING GOAL. 114 The Hatchet 1912 plished with but a half hour ' s good practice each day. The trouble can be attributed to no one thing in particular; it is simply the result of the existing conditions. It has been rumored that next year the afternoon classes in the Engineering department will be held from i :oo to 4:00. Here ' s hoping that the rumor will become a certainty. Given this season’s team and another hour’s practice each day and there would have been a different story to tell. Although the season was not so successful as was hoped, there is nothing of which we can be ashamed, and there are many things of which we can be justly proud. Washington is, without the slightest doubt, absolutely the cleanest institution in the country as regards athletics. In spite of our strict eligibility rules, which are enforced, only one man became ineligible during the season, and it speaks highly of our football men as students, when it is known that, had the season continued another month, not a single man would have suffered this fate.

In the back field we had several stars. All in all, our team was com¬ posed of a bunch of earnest workers and good fighters. —W. B. Stevens, Mgr. Nelson Xelson throughout the year played as distinctly a consistent game as any other man on the team. His line-plunging and bull-dog tenacity won for hint the distinction of being one ot the best full backs in the west. The name of the plunger is well de¬ served. This is “Heine’s” second year on the team. With another year he should be a wizard. At the close of the 1910 season Nelson was elected to captain the 1911 squad. Sihler A half back of sterling qualities. Having substi¬ tuted the year before, his experience, together with stern determination, made him an enemy that oppo¬ nents well feared. Sihler ' s boot was oft the redeem¬ ing feature of a game, and more than once made victory possible. W henever called upon he was sure to make the required distance. With a lion ' s strength he would tear through the opposing line. Never faltering, and always eager and ready to respond to the call of his signal, he proved to he a big asset to the eleven. Abeken was looked upon as a better carrier of the oval than defender of his goal. Falvey Quick to think, yet quicker to act. With nerves of steel and, like Socrates, cool and steadv, he steered the team through thick and thin. ’ His familiar cry of “X-7-21-8-1 r-Hike,’’ installed courage into the heart of every warrior. Quarter-back Falvey was at home with the forward-pass, and through the manipulation of this play brought home the bacon on more than one occasion. McCarthy Like Gibraltar, he stood at center, a mighty tower of strength. Accuracy in his passes, coupled with the happy faculty of breaking up plays, brands this center as one of Washington ' s foremost players, and incidentally awards him a position on the All-Mis- souri Valley team. Two more years of football and McCarthy should stand in line for a berth on the All-Western eleven. Heely With lightning as his only rival, this speedy player was able to pull off play after play in such quick succession that opponents oft stood bewildered, while long gains were being scored. From the spec¬ tators’ point of view, quarter-back Heely was the whole game, so spectacular were his plays. End runs and fancy side-stepping were his specialties. Wood Light, but oh my, what a tackle! Too bad that he was not a little heavier; but even at that he was no slouch. Breaking up well-planned formations was his delight. A master at receiving the forward pass and a “wang” when it comes to hard tackling. Wilson This man at the end, if conditions had been proper, would undoubtedly have made one of the best all-around players on the team. Ill-health and a late start proved a big handicap for Wilson. As it was. however, the stocky little end won the applause of the spectators every time he lined up with his team mates. Extremely fast on his feet, and pos¬ sessing a knack for picking holes, Wilson was able to advance the ball when others seemed to fail. Being fast, he was always handy in a punting game. Morrell I he right wing was well taken care of by Morrell. Although his first year in fast company, he handled his end like a veteran, and for the greater part of the season played this position in such fine fashion that all rivals were completely outclassed. Running down punts was his hobby, and for breaking up interference he stood well near the head of his class. Lane Lane at guard did his duty well. Large holes were continually made by this clever guard through which the Washington backs were enabled to plunge. Not only was this guard a good line-plower, but iiis work on defense deserves notice. To the hostile line and backs. Lane was an effective barrier. Vollmer A raw recruit at the beginning of the season, Vollmer worked consistently and enthusiastically until before the close of the season he was a tackle of the first water. Few men passed his tackle, and those who did were made to realize that tliev had been through a stubborn battle. Two more years of college football await this player, and great things are being looked for from him. Big and strong, Kimbro was just the man for a guard position. On defense he held like a stone wall, while on offense he was equally valuable. Time after time the opponents’ play would be killed in its in¬ fancy by Kimbro breaking through their line and tackling the runner. Cunningham Like Kimbro and McCarthy, Cunningham was big and beefy. Knowing the value of getting the jump on the opposing lineman, he used this knowledge and worried the hostile guards throughout the gruel¬ ling contests. A belter trio for their respective posi¬ tions would be hard to assimilate. Perrings An alternate for a guard position and a valuable man on the line. Fritz often proved a stumbling block to the plunging backs who directed their at¬ tack against his guard. He displayed the same quali¬ ties this season that characterized his play last year. Prensky As guardian of the wing position, Joe was a formidable running mate for the other wing men. He was a hard tackier and a ‘Viz” at smashing interference. Berger A man full of fire and energy. ' litis player was seen for the first time last season. Being new at the game, and considering the keen competition, he did remarkably well in holding down the important posi¬ tion of alternating half back. The qualities of a star half back are there, and next year should see Red” Berger shining. Bank One of the most willing and enthusiastic workers on the squad, Abe was ever anxious to get into the fray, and when once on the firing line, he could be relied upon to harass his antagonists with equal effectiveness, as some of his more experienced team¬ mates. Abe is every inch a fighter. Coining from the famous school of Carlyle scrap¬ pers, Coach Cayou received the preliminary training that marks him the great coach he is. W ' ith scanty material upon which to work, and with hours for training very limited, Chief Cayou lias succeeded in laying a foundation for a team which, in a couple of years, we hope will be invincible. The one great aim of this Indian coach is to promote and maintain clean athletics. So far he has been successful. Here s hoping that this success will forever remain. Manager Stevens “ The man behind the gun.” Working under ad¬ verse circumstances, “Steve” was ever ready, with a cheerful smile and a willing hand, to look after the welfare of the boys. Great credit is due our manager for his work during the past season. Trainer John The one man who is always happy. Trainer John, with his bucket and sponge, is a prominent figure at any game. If the score is going right, John laughs. If things seem adverse, John smiles and cheers the boys on. Always there with a helping hand, John is welcomed by all the myrtle and maroon.

I he team left on the first trip April 12, and 011 the following afternoon met the Springfield State Normal School at Springfield, Mo. Although the Normal School had a fair pitcher and several heavy hitters, they were as easih disposed of by a score of 6 -t as had been Shurtleff a week before. The next afternoon we played Drury at the same place. It had rained very hard the night before, and the field was in a terrible condition, brerichs allowed but one hit and Washington was the victor bv a score of 6-3. On the 15th the first game with Arkansas was played upon a field with several ponds of water and one or two small mountains in it. It may be said here that the Arkansas baseball team of 1910 has been considered by critics to have been second to no college team in the country. In the second inning Arkansas scored one run on a foul hit to left field, which the umpire from his position behind the pitchers could not see. In the third inning Arkansas, having all the breaks in luck, as thev did through- TIIE DRURY GAME. Washington University 127 out the entire game, pushed over another run. 1 he score stood 2-0, in favor of Arkansas until the sixth inning, when Vance, of Arkansas, drove a terrific liner to right center field. Cave, who was playing right, and Faidlcy, in center, started for the ball on a deer run. Cave dove over one of the small hills before spoken of and in that position was just under the ball, with his hands outstretched to receive it, when his head struck Faidley, who, running at fu ll speed, caught the ball for an instant, but upon the collision it was dropped and both men were knocked unconscious. In this way the third run was scored. Disheartened at getting the bad breaks, both in luck and from the umpire, Washington finally succumbed to their first defeat, after a valiant struggle, by a score of 4 - 2 . The following afternoon, with Anscheutz pitching, Arkansas was beaten in a beautifully played game 3-2. The third game was played the following Saturday in St. Louis on heavy ' grounds and in a blinding snow storm. The game was finally ' called on account of darkness, the score being 6-6. Dike Nipher played this entire game in brilliant style with a very badly crippled hand, which he injured in an accident the day before. Drury next came to St. Louis for two games, and was vanquished without much effort. It was just after this, about May 1st, that saw the beginning of the end, and the most important game yet to be played. Capt. Beck found his law work piling up in such a way that he could not get out to prac¬ tice, and finally, after the two games with Missouri, had to retire. Nipher, who had done noble work on first base, was ineligible. Frerichs, the mainstay of the team, and rated by all who saw him work as the best college pitcher in this part of the country, was ineligible for the rest of the season, and a week later Mackey was in the same condition. In this shape we had to face our old rival. Missouri. Three good men were substituted in these games in Proctor, Frank and Falvey, but with little practice in team work we were up against it. Missouri won the first, 10-9; the second game was played at Columbia, and was the first on the second trip. I11 the first game at Missouri, Poindexter held out wonderfully well until the ninth, when Missouri scored four runs, winning 6-2. The following day Missouri was defeated in a good game before an enormous crowd, 3-2. In this game Anscheutz pitched a masterly game and deserves great credit. We then went to Lawrence, Kansas. The Kansas sluggers knocked Poindexter out of the box in the third inning of the first game, scoring eight runs and making eight hits, nearly all of them home runs or three- base hits. This was due partly to Tex’s condition; he was quite sick, but insisted on starting the game. After this game he left for St. Louis, leaving but nine men to play Kansas on the following day. 128 The Hatchet 1912 1 lie next clay the game was played previous to a big dual track meet and before a crowd of 5,000. In this, the last game of the season, Wash¬ ington showed the old spirit that characterizes all of its athletic teams, and by Anscheutz allowing but three hits, amid mad plaudits from the stands, Kansas was defeated 4-3. 1 Inis ended tile 1910 baseball season, and thus the gamest and most brilliant team Washington has bad in years was broken down and dis¬ organized by lack of time in which to practice and by ineligible players, and we dare assert that our opponents, the other teams in the Missouri alley Conference, were not hindered and hampered by like conditions. —EDWARD H.

Championships, held on the C. B. C. campus on Saturday, May 21. In this meet we secured three points, a very creditable showing con¬ sidering the size of the meet and our limited number of entries. Ed. Mit¬ chell, after tying for third with Mac- Farland, ' 08, in the high jump, beat the former Washingtonian on the jump-off and won the place. Mitchell’s jump was 5 feet 9 inches. Arch Nelson scored a point in the broad jump with a leap of 20 feet and 11 inches, and Culbertson captured third medal in the mile. r E. MITCHELL. A. NELSON.

Mitchell tied for first in the high jump, jumping 5 feet 10 inches. Lambert tied for first in the pole vault with a vault of 10 feet 10 4 inches. Howe won the shotput by putting 42 feet 6 y 2 inches, a new conference record. Nelson got fourth in the broad jump. Thus Washington with a four-man team got fourth place and three of the four men came home the proud possessors of gold watches, given as first prizes, Mitchell and Lambert both having won in the toss-up with the men they tied. NELSON WINNING HIGH HURDLES, FIELD DAY. The same four men competed at the Western Intercollegiate meet at Champaign, Ill., the men entering the same events as in the previous meet. No places were gotten, but the following were the performances: Mitchell, 5 feet 10 inches; Nelson, 20 feet 6 inches; Lambert, 11 feet; Howe, 38 feet. Washington University 133 ABEKEN WINNING IOO-YARD DASH, FIELD DAY. The Freshman-Sophomore meet, held at Francis Field, May 18, was won by the Sophs., the score being 57 to 51. Lambert, ’12, was the largest point winner, scoring 22 points. Goodwin, Culbertson, Abeken and Nel¬ son were also heavy scorers for their respective classes. As a result of series of meets two university records stand challenged. Ffowe broke his own record with the 16-pound shot by a put of 42 feet inches. The pole vault record, which should have been 11 feet but was misprinted as 12 feet, was broken by Lambert. —GEO. W. LANE, Mgr. FIELD DAY SQUAD.

The struggle furnished excitement for the spectators as well as for the contestants. The fact that neither side could push the oval across their opponents’ goal line is evidence of the equality of the play¬ ing on both sides, it was anybody’s game for three quarters, the Frosh having a little the better of the argument, owing to their beef-trust” array of talent in the line. In the third quarter, an attempted punt, a bad pass, and a fumble behind their own goal line, gave the “infants” a safety which proved enough to win the game. For the 1913 aggrega¬ tion Morrell, Berryhill, Prensky and Perrings loomed up especially bright, while Hardaway, Bryan, Potthoff and P. Nelson were the principal reason for the Frosh victory.

The officers are elected at the last spring meet¬ ing and are chosen from the three higher classes. Membership ?s open to all women of the University. Every effort will be made by the Asso¬ ciation to increase interest in every branch of athletics. The dues of mem¬ bers will be appropriated, first, for a large cup to be used as a basket-ball trophy. The numerals of the winning class team will be cut on it each year. The cup will be kept in McMillan Hall. OFFICERS GIRI.S’ ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION. Washington University 113 Tennis Tournament 1910 IkMA GRUNER . . . I r r- Gertrude Cole . .

The Club can not but be happy over the results of the season 1910-1911. The annual melodrama of last year, given after the “Hatchet” for 1910 went to press, was “Silas, the Chore Boy.” It was enjoyed so thoroughly by the audiences present at the usual Wednesday and Thursday night performances, that by special request a third performance was given. To open the season of this year, Thyrsus gave a light but appropriate play, “The Freshman. The chief merits of the performance lay in the peculiar interpretations of each part. In choosing “David Gar¬ rick for the next play, Thyrsus felt somewhat pretentious, but it can be justly proud of the attempt. Indeed, it was not an attempt, it was a finished production. Mr. Solari, who was engaged to coach the annual play, The Professor’s Love Story,” assisted in coaching this play. For the third play of the season. Thyrsus chose Churchill’s “Title-Mart.” The performances were undoubtedly creditable and fully enjoyed. “The Pro¬ fessor’s Love Story” was given at the Odeon. March 29th, as the annual play. The melodrama remains to complete the program for this year. “The Professor’s Love Story” By J. M. Barrie. Presented at the Odeon. March 29, 1911. Professor Tom Gooowii.i.ie Dr. Cozens.

Washington University 157 Annual Play The Professor’s Love Story was chosen this year for the annual play. Genuine pathos and genial humor were effectively conveyed over the footlights at the Odeon on Wednesday, March 29th, 1911. The play, which is one of the sweetly clean works of J. M. Barrie, was familiarized to theatre-goers winters ago by E. S. Willard. Its inspiring success in the hands of Thyrsus demonstrated that it was as suitable for an amateur performer as for the professional stage. The large and fashionable audience, filling boxes, parquet and gal¬ lery. evinced the lively interest of the friends and student body of Wash¬ ington University in the play. A large part of the audience were grad¬ uates, and a reception at the close of the performance for Alumni and cast marked a departure in the history of annual plays. The Odeon, decorated with many college, fraternity and sorority pennants and ban¬ ners, presented a gala appearance. The boxes were draped with various colors, and the balcony railing fringed with streamers. Henry Clay Patterson, as Prof. Goodwillie, played the leading part. He succeeded in presenting Barrie’s science absorbed professor in a con¬ vincing manner. His part was possessed of increasing possibilities, and although drawing the necessary smiles in the lighter scenes, it was in the pathos of the last act that he showed to its greatest advantage his his¬ trionic ability. The grace and finish of his work throughout evidenced his long experience in the club. Miss Erma Perham as Lucy White, Prof. Goodwillie ' s private secre¬ tary, divided the honors almost equally with Mr. Patterson. She showed a strength in the emotional scenes of the last two acts, which gripped the audience and caused them to follow and sympathize with her many acts of self-sacrifice, eventually rewarded, as they deserved to be, with that greatest of blessings, a happy marriage. Her part possessed some diffi¬ cult situations, but she was ever equal to them, and thus, at the last, she scored a telling triumph. While uniformity marked the performance as a whole, Mr. Russell, who, with but a handful of rehearsals, played the prominent part of Dr. Cozzens, and Miss Gorse in the difficult and unsympathetic role of Agnes Goodwillie, deserve especial mention. Miss Carrie Scott, as an unpre¬ tending Scotch lassie, and Messrs. Smith and Price, as her shy plowboy lovers, capably furnished most of the fun with their rustic manners and Scotch accent. The Professor ' s Love Story” is probably the most difficult play ever undertaken by Thyrsus, and was correspondingly excellentlv han¬ dled. As a work of art it is distinctly climaxical, working from a rather tame first act to heights of emotion at no time melodramatic, lightened by some comedy at no time bordering on the burlesque.

Officers were elected and a director procured, but enthusiasm waned until, in January, the Glee C lub was formally abandoned. The small group of mandolinists, however, refused to disband, secured a director of their own, and began earnest work. Since then it has grown and prospered as the Mandolin Club, and is now gaining recognition as an active organization. Its mem¬ bers entertain high expectations for the future, and hope in time to become a Glee-Mandolin Club, as was originally intended. f ?

In a college life it is the little, as well as the large, which distinguish the years and give to each a train of recollections peculiarly its own. We have called this section of our book “Doins” because we believe it comprises all the things done on our campus, which have combined to give to the past year a color and a tone that no lapse of time should dim. SOPHOMORE VAUDEVILLE.—We will begin this record with the night of April 13th, 1910, in the Thyrsus Theatre, at the time when our predecessors ended their labors. The occasion to be commemorated is the Sophomore Vaudeville Show. The curtain rises on the first act, and behold our far-famed man of muscle, Bobby Brawn alias A. Banks, swinging his Indian clubs with astonishing agility. Then followed the great stringed instrument trio, Fritz. Metz and Gus, unequalled for their ability to call forth melody from the banjo. The “Tiedc Brothers,” in their musical skit, lent further happy harmonies to the entertainment. Another unique headliner was Rome’s Last Spasm,” as presented by Thilenius and Patterson, while the Brothers Si Verno, in their comical rendering of several humorous songs, shared almost equal honors with these. Then Seiior Harmonique, the king of harmony; the piano fiends, pianists, contortionists and operatic stars; the Cutupos, Lambert and Metz, and moving pictures, were all to he seen for the price of one admission. MISSOURI-WASHINGTON DEBATE.—A week passed and then came the debate between Washington and Missouri Universities. The relative merits of the adoption of the Income Tax in Missouri was the subject under discussion. Mr. McCullom and Mr. Young spoke for Missouri against the Income Tax, while Mr. Brooks and Mr. Debatin on behalf of Washington defended it. We lost, but not ignominiously, because under every adverse circumstance our team put up a good showing, and we believe with a little more time for preparation the results might have been reversed. MJ. 5’URKUSS BE B PIKER PIKEWAY $URRKUS$ Washington University As usual, the athletic season was closed with a College “Surrkuss,” the proceeds of which were turned over to the Athletic Association. It was held on Francis Field in the early part of May, and proved a mod¬ erate money maker. A number of good features were staged that evening. The lawyers put on a howling success entitled ‘The Illegal Lights (for ten cents), and we believe that even our most revered friend, the Dean, had some difficulty in settling the points of law involved. The Lock and Chain Minstrels “minstrelized” (also for ten cents), but they did not overstrain their voices, as the audience had hardly been packed into the tent and subjected to a few overwhelming attempts at humor and harmony when the pleasing call of next show in five minutes” was heard. The archi¬ tects demonstrated that they were great trage¬ dians, as well as great builders, and about their play “Eneri” nothing need be said, as it all comes back with the name. In the Gym. Buffalo Bill, or some near relative, raised the dust with what appeared to be a cross between a pistol and a cannon. In addition to all this there was the raffle, surrounded with the usual crowd of reckless gamblers, and peanuts, candy and lemonade in the good old circus fashion of our youth, and lastly we all tripped “the light fantas¬ tic toe in the nearby Gymnasium before, well satisfied and thoroughly coated with confetti, we wended our way homeward, light in heart and purse. Saturday. May 7th SP. ' l 8 P. M. I VVCIS I II 1.0 ' “r — CIUL Iff KWKS TO CAKONDf.l ET K5 1 2f2 The Hatchet 1912 McMillan Day F every co-ed in W ashington University had held her individ¬ ual thumbs and said her individual prayers for fair weather, the result could not have been more desirable. The crowd gathered early, and as, in holiday attire, it moved about, we were taken back to the old English Court celebration, when the best and noblest of the nation were regaled amidst ivy-clad walls sur¬ mounted by ponderous Gothic towers. The first event of the afternoon was the ivy planting, which is to tes¬ tify that one more year has passed over McMillan, and that another group of girls are about to assume the cares and mastery of the kingdom. Miss Dockery, dignified and solemn, clad in cap and gown, stood upon the Court steps as she delivered the address of welcome to the incoming Senior class. She then presented the silver spade to Miss May Hoolan. who replied in turn in some very appropriate words. At half past four the Maypole dancers took their places. We had expected a great deal, and our fondest hopes were fully realized. The crowns and sashes of smilax seemed to transform each girl into a wood nymph, while the ensemble wove and interwove the green and white streamers. Although it was a sight that for many years should not fade from our memories, regret did not linger long when the dance was over, as our care was dispelled when we were served with cooling refreshments by our fair hostesses. Next was the performance of “Pyramus and Thisbe.” The stage had been particularly well located, and, with the little brick court of the “Gymmie,” the stone balconies and old-fashioned lantern brackets above us. we were again conveyed back through the years to an old English out-of-door playhouse. From the first word spoken to the death of fair Thisbe, slain by the scabbard which her dead spouse unhooked from his side for that special purpose, we were pleasantly entertained. The high spirit of the actors easily communicated itself to the listeners until even the most staid and dignified mamma shook with laughter; we then went home well satisfied, but only to come back with heightened expectations for the evening ' s festivities. The evening was as beautiful as the day. Thinking, perhaps, that for our purposes the moon and stars were a bit too far removed, clever mechanics had brought them into the very Court, and had fastened them there, brilliant and dazzling. The evening Maypole dance produced an entirely different effect. The white figures seemed rather a ring of daintv moths, circling about the brilliant lights. The dance ended, the lights disappeared, and we once more turned our attention to the quaint old stage of the afternoon. There we saw Ben Johnson’s “Masque of Queens,” lurid lights, hoarse shrieks, skulking forms, and then a maze of dazzling light mingling with bright colors, and the graceful swaying of the dance again served to convince us of our girls’ ability to portray convincingly the masterpieces of the old English dramatists, and thus another chapter in our year’s history was closed. 244 The Hatchet 1912 ] IL last days of the class of 1910 at the University were now celebrated, and we are sure that the memory of this week of departure will be the fitting culmination of their four years’ residence with us. The week opened, much to the delight of the class, with a banquet at the Century Boat Club. Being effi¬ cient gastronomists, the) ' enjoyed this affair immensely, ending the even- ing s festivities with class songs and Washington songs and “Quadrangle 1 own songs until several people began to show visible traces of emotion. The second day it rained, but the Faculty was very glad, as this was the day that had been set for the Faculty-Senior baseball game, and the Sen¬ iors had vowed a direful vengeance. Sunday was here fortunately in¬ serted to give the poor Seniors the needed strength for the coming- ordeal. The next day was the time set for the taking of “likenesses,” including caps and gowns, and also the tree was to be planted just north of Guppies No. I. Thither came Dean Woodward, and he spoke movingly of how affecting it would be when our children’s children would come to love the tree, and when they had been naughty to hide behind it as they saw a Frof. coming. With prophetic eye the Vice-President spoke of future re¬ unions in the shade of this embryonic tree, and then the Senior girls saw themselves as the Juniors saw them, and fun it was to behold themselves thus mimicked and imitated in all good sport and friendliness. THE CLASS OF I 9 IO. 246 The Hatchet 1912 Probably the feature of Senior week that will linger longest in the memory of all concerned was the performance of the Senior play, a light opera entitled “Quadrangle Town,” by Hugh M. Ferriss and Arthur V. Proetz, both 1910 men. It was presented in the graduating tent upon the campus on Tuesday evening, June 7th, before an audience that filled the tent and occupied overflow quarters on the outskirts. The principal parts were sung by Spencer Thomas, Henry Hall, Lucille Bernard and Alice Miller. Both the authors, together with Alfred Sihler and Verne YY. Gould, also played important roles. Such a pretentious Senior play had never before been attempted, but when called the cast was not found wanting, and the performance was a complete success. On Wednesday, the “Pilgrimage” was held in the archway. Beggeman did his best to make the beholders imagine he was our “Superintendent of Grounds and Buildings.” At University Hall Thompson and Prokes gave a private view of an incident in the lives of Professor Starbird and one Robert B. Brooks. At Cupples 1 and the Library the artful Mr. Stout and Miss Turner were heard respectively. An imitation by Mr. Buss of Professor Kcysor was given on the steps of Busch Hall, and at Cupples II Mr. Mackey held the stage. Miss Glasgow revealed the foibles of Miss Page at Eads Hall, and at the Chapel Mr. Thompson entertained 11s with some more serious semi-dramatics, and in the afternoon the futures of the about-to-be Seniors were told before the class ensemble in the tent. The Seniors received sufficient manifestation from the heavens of their sorrow at so many young men and women being turned out upon the cold-hearted world, for rain caused the graduating services to be trans¬ ferred to the Chapel, and here each Senior received the time-honored sheepskin, bearing eloquent witness to the fact that he or she was now really educated. Then the Prom, closed it all. Late that night the Seniors could be seen saying their last farewells to each other and to the many places they had loved so much in their happy sojourn here. They took a last, long look at the campus of the University, whose influence will ever remain fresh in their minds, and whose memories will never become dim. W ash i n g t o n University 247 C. E. Trip Let us turn here to a few extracts taken from a C. E.’s diary of the late summer of 1910. Monday, August 29th, 1910. Mr. Hooper and C. L. delegation leave St. Louis for Detroit, arrive there at evening and start for Toronto. I uesday, August 30th, bunch arrive in Toronto, 9:30 a. m. Prof. Sweetser, Bryan and Start join the party. Leave for Huntsville at noon, and after arriving there embark for Portage, which is crossed on the Hot 1 amale Limited. Harting and Withrow welcome bunch at Dor- sett at 9 ; 3°- -A repast of pie and sandwiches puts everyone in good humor. And so it goes. The Seniors begin the active work of the trip by establishing the triangulation stations. The Juniors act, it seems, only as attendant necessities. We gather little evidence from this diary that much work was done, although we hope that we are mistaken. The trip seems to have been filled out mainly with all the sports known to the fertile mind of the American youth, including so gastronomical an effort as the pie eating of Pitz and Father.” Professor Sweetser seems to have taken along a sufficient amount of wire, judging from all his attempts to make the prize haul. To Abe Banks, it seems, was voting the cham¬ pionship of rowing, and roving. 248 These trips, made to give the “budding” Civil Engineers an oppor¬ tunity to try out their latent skill, seem to have a satisfactory result when considered from this point of view. But still greater seems to be the fun element for the boys and doubtlessly for the natives,” as our inform¬ ant naively terms them. We should even suspect that to our staid stu¬ dents a country picnic was quite as much of a novelty as any kind of a picnic at all to the afore-mentioned natives. Washington University 249 September Once more we stood upon our campus, and lo! there were many changes. In the first place, we had a car line named after us and running to our steps—quite an improvement for those who have the habit of just missing that last car at Delmar. In the way of additions, we found that the two wings to Cupples II had been completed, and were fitted out with a number of up-to-date machines for the shop-work of our engineers. In the personnel of our Faculty there were two interesting changes, namely: Prof. Robinson, new Dean of the School of Architec¬ ture, and Prof. Adams, head of the Department of Economics. And then the hoards of Freshmen! Scarcely had we beheld them and begun to calculate whether they would beat the Sophomores or not, when lo! an ordinance was issued from those courts beyond which there is no appeal, that there would be no “scrapso a line of unkempt, wretchedly clothed and thoroughly disgusted Freshmen were allowed to make their way into the campus with never an obstacle before them in the shape of waiting Sophomores. During the first few months of the fall the usual “making of impres¬ sions” for scholarship upon the Faculty was in vogue, and accordingly we have nothing to note, save such things as the flutter attending the Thyrsus try-out, the various functions given by the classes, and the annual dance given by the upper class girls for the Freshmen girls. At this event the “Gymmie” was beautifully decorated with autumn verdure, and everything from refreshments to music was planned with the idea of making the event informally cordial. Every one met hosts of strange Freshmen; the ice was effectually broken, or, rather, the weather was too warm for ice, and the girls just naturally got acquainted. THE WESTMINSTER GAME. ARKANSAS GAME PARADE. Although all this happened while the football season was actively in progress, we feel that we would only duplicate another part of our book by giving a complete account of our team here. In spite of the spirit shown in numerous “stunts, ’ given to resurrect the deadened student body, there was a phenomenal deficit at the end of the season. The fact that there was no fence around the Stadium was undoubtedly largely responsible for this condition of affairs. Although we may be hurting somebody’s feelings, the exigencies of space compel us to pass rapidly over the time until the Obelisk Initiation. A part of this, as usual, was held on the campus, and we were entertained by such stunts as fishing on the dry ground, putting to sleep a headless doll, and much weird and fantastic singing. This Society’s dance in December was also a smart affair. W hile we are upon the subject of initiation and dances we should remem ber the Lock and Chain. The new men assumed the social bur¬ dens encumbent upon the honor of being members of this Society on October 28th, and showed their fitness for such work by giving a series of as well attended and generally pleasant dances as their predecessors. In addition, they demonstrated that they had the virtues of originality and courage by barring from their entertainments all who were in no way connected with the University. Some dates marked with much red ink on the co-eds’ calendars are October 28th, November 18th. December 9th, January 13th, etc. About this time, too, came the Freshmen spread. This classic and annual affair was made possible by the execution of a pretty piece of strategy. The Sophs attacked and captured the wagon bearing the neces¬ sary refreshments. The Freshmen watched this fracas from afar, and see¬ ing that things were going against them they hastily ordered and con¬ veyed to the girls’ Gym., bv a circuitous route, some more ice cream, cake and candy, and their fun continued undisturbed. That night the campus was astir with excitement, and many rooms in the dormitory wore the next day “a morning after” expression. 252 The Hatchet 1912 And here the Juniors appeared and would have you know that they are distinctly original. One “balmy eve” in late October we hied our¬ selves to the woods back of the Gymnasium and there indulged in an old- fashioned bacon fry. Again we played the games of our childhood and sang the songs of our early youth, climaxing the evening with a moon¬ light Virginia reel upon the turf of Francis Field. One of the most memorable celebrations of this year was the recep¬ tion given by the Washington University Association to ten thousand Alumni, distinguished visitors from out of the city and resident friends of the University. The open air concert had to take place in the Art School, owing to unfavorable climatic conditions, but, nevertheless, the Symphony Orchestra there pleasingly rendered the numbers on the pro¬ gram. In addition to this, the Varsity played Arkansas University at the Stadium, and Mr. Galloway very nearly gave an organ recital in the Graham Memorial Chapel. The buildings were thrown open to all the visitors, efficient guides were scattered everywhere, and in our best dress we talked of all the wonders that we had and of the more which were to come. The entertainment was held under the auspices of the Washington University Association, with Prof. Abbott in immediate charge. LOCK AND CHAIN INITIATION. Washington University 253 About this time, under the guidance of Mrs. London, the Womans Council was organized, to promote the same relationship among the girls as the Boys’ Council does among the boys. It is also intended that the Council take care of many important matters connected with the girls’ activities at the University. The other affair mentioned above was the Christmas Fair, intended to raise money for May Day and other necessary expenses at McMillan Hall. The Y. W. C. A. supervised this event, fitting out the “Gymmie” with booths for candy, fancy articles, grab bags, pink lemonade and the other usual County hair features. Bluebeard, as presented by several future Maude Adamses and Ethel Barrymores, was the “hit” of’the day, and A. B. C.” is still ringing in our ears. THE FRESHMEN DANCE was held at the Gymnasium on December 14th. For the first time in many moons it was not a formal affair, and therefore lost much glitter and glamour, but, according to the Freshmen, little real pleasure. The large crowd, the pretty fair o nes, the tasteful decorations, furnished the time, the place and the girl for an enjoyable evening. At last came the 22nd of December. This was certainly a red letter day, or, shall we more accurately say, night. The excitement began with a party given by the Juniors, who were anxious to while away some of the weary hours before the real night’s work began. Again this ever original class portrayed the unique thread in its character, and this time we refreshed ourselves with sauer-kraut. We played the simple games of our youth, and passed ourselves down to posterity with a flashlight. There¬ upon we adjourned, to see what little rest might be obtained before the coming battle. THE SECTION a” GANG. Washington University 255 THE NUMERAL BATTLE.— The Sophomores had planned to meet near Meramec Highlands and to march in from there to protect the tree, in which a platform had already been built, and upon which seven husky Sophomores were stationed. The Freshmen were barred from the hattle field between 7 p. m. and midnight, in accordance with the new rules. However, they got wind of the Soph, plans and so formed a hold¬ up party near the Highlands and dragged each Soph, from the car as he was on his way to meet his associates. About 3:30 in the morning a party of Freshmen sighted the tree, but deemed it advisable to return and report to headquarters in Liggett Hall before attempting to dislodge the btawnv Sophs, from the platform which glowered down on them some tvventv feet above. Day dawned before the Freshmen, fortified with coffee and equipped with ladders, gathered about the base of the tree, and using their long ladders as battering rams, broke the plat¬ form into kindling wood, forcing the Sophomores to take refuge in the limbs higher tip, but still the minutes were slipping by, and little headway was being made in actually securing the flag. Finally, however. Lux Bock, Ulrich Potthoff, Paul Coste, Henry Bryan. Paul Nelson and several other daring Freshmen were there with the necessary heroics: worming themselves through the broken platform they forced their way by the waiting Sophs, and threw to the ground, amid salvos of applause from their classmates below, th e much-sought-for flag: so earnest was the struggle around the shattered platform that three Sophs, were disquali¬ fied and compelled to come down from the tree for breaking Senior rules concerning the fight. While this was going on in the tree, the remainder of the Sophomore class made an unsuccessful attempt to prevent the Fresh¬ men on the ground from reaching the flag, but they only succeeded in occupying the Freshmen long enough to be themselves securely tied. The referees presented the flag to the class of 1914, and we wended our way back to our separate lecture balls, supremely happy and satis¬ fied with the respective classes as having furnished once more a really live scrap. Then we adjourned to the good things of the Christmas holi¬ days. The first event of the new year that had any effect on the University and especially on its social life was the resignation of Mrs. London as Proctor of McMillan Hall. The girls felt her departure as a great loss, for her relations with them had at all times been pleasant, and she was of such a kindly and progressive nature as to cause great regret at her leaving. Her sister, Miss Lucy E. Smith, for many years connected with Mary Institute, was appointed to her place. 2.56 The Hatchet 1912 CIVICS CLUB. —Among the first achievements of the year also was the organization of the Washington University Civics Club. The need for such an organization had long been felt among those vitally interested in matters of politics and civic government in general, but before the addition of Prof. Adams to our Faculty no one had ever evinced the ability or inclination to undertake the task of forming such an organization. The Club is now a thriving institution, with its mem¬ bership roll filled and several names on the waiting list. A special feature at many of its meetings are informal talks by men of local political renown. ANNUAL BONFIRE. —Among the features calculated to differ¬ entiate the past year from the many which have gone before, and the cycles which are to come, we wish to classify this year’s bonfire. In the first place, it was well attended by the student body, and accordingly an unusual supply of wood was on hand south of the campus on the evening of January 30th. The architects, always clever fellows, managed to drag an old war- ' bus and to furnish much fun with their antics on it. At length the fire was lighted, and, well covered with tar, it flamed heaven¬ ward, showing to whoever cared to look, several hundred college men enjoying themselves with “dogs” and rolls within its kindlv warmth. In the midst of the festivities the effigies of three of our “dearly beloved” professors were relegated to the ravages of the fire. Then followed those oft heard, but ever interesting, speeches, the annual tour through the quad, and serenade in McMillan Court. A FLASH OF THE BUNCH AT BONFIRE. Washington University 257 MOCK TRIAL.— The first evidence of the interest shown by our student body in the deficit appearing upon the books of the Athletic Association after the football season was the Mock Trial, given on the evening of February 3rd by the Debating Club. 1 he case was a suit for damages, brought by one officer Lonnigol for being bitten by his neigh¬ bor’s dog. The performance was well staged and handsomely costumed. The work of Mr. Hufferd as a lady defendant, of Mr. Smith as the police¬ man’s wife, of Mr. Maverick as the college chap, and of Mr. Luedde as the counsel for the defense, is to be highly commended. architects’ stage-coach. On tlie evening of February 8th, “Quadrangle Town was presented for the second time at the Odeon. Financially the results of this second performance were very gratifying, as more than $700 was realized for the Athletic Association. The fact that many of the Seniors of 1910 were by February, 1911, scattered far and wide necessitated numerous changes in the cast. Among the principals alone, Henry Hall and Alice Miller were not heard for a second time, Merrill Smith and Mabel Ban¬ croft taking their parts. When Mr. Smith and quartet sang “F ' rater- nity” an initial wave of applause from the old¬ est “grad. to the greenest Freshman and the fairest co-ed swept over the house. The action of the play moved rapidly until the appearance of Hugh M. Ferriss as Percy Parree, Parisian Professor of Fussing at Washington Univer¬ sity: surrounded by the Pony Ballet, he danced and sang “I am the Darling of McMillan” in an exceedingly droll and unusually Frenchy manner. He also, in an amusing fashion, expounded the ten essential canons of fussing to the darling little “Ponies.” The chief fun makers of the play were our well known vaudeville artists, Alfred T. Sillier and Verne W. Gould. The hit of the evening was probably made by some verses of Sihler’s, sung by himself and Gould as encores to “I Ask to Know.” The one about Gus Haen- schen s “every little movement having a mean¬ ing all its own” called forth salvo after salvo of applause as our popular orchestra leader a. w. proetz, turned crimson and scarlet in the garish glow composer. of the footlights. i V £ ' Ll r 91 H. M. FERRISS, AUTHOR. 260 The Hatche l 1912 Arthur YV. Proetz, the other author, who was also an actor and a “songster,” imper¬ sonated a Parisienne and forced Henry Clay Patterson, the fossilized professor of parliamen¬ tary law, to yield him his part in as clever a fashion as he compelled the diatonic scale to yield sequacious melodies. Lucille Bernard sang and danced “The Pony Ballet” and “I am the Coquette of t he College” with a decided sweetness of tone and grace of movement. The terpsichorean work of Miss Erma Perham while singing “My Elegant Aeroplane” showed the finish and perfection, as well as the beauty and grace, needed for such a work. Miss Bancroft sang “I Have Only One Left on My Program,” with an ingenious coquetry, and the “Pin Duet” with Merrill Smith with an evident sincerity that was very likable. PERCY PA REE.

ROBERTS. “l ASK TO KNOW. ' ” 2 J4 The H a tc he l 1912 JUNIOR PROM.— By universal consent the high water mark in social affairs was reached with the Junior Prom, on February 21st at the Gymnasium. The decorations represented hours of steady but pleasant work. White bands extended from the center of the roof to the running track and hid the asymmetrical apparatus above. The Junior corner in the western end of the Gymnasium was conspicuous among the many attractive resting places; it was decorated in white and rich pur¬ ple, and in the center was a large table, surrounded on either side by benches. The music, situated in the center of the floor, beneath a canopy of purple and white, was embowered in palms, and the refreshments were bountiful and good. The first dance was the grand march, which ended with the singing of the Alma Mater in the dim religious light furnished by a huge illuminated Washington shield. From then on joy was only confined to the confines of the Gymnasium, and a truly happy crowd lingered until the end. The patronesses of the dance were: Mrs. D. F. Houston, Mrs. A. S. Langsdorf, Mrs. M. S. Snow, Mrs. W. S. Curtis, Mrs. J. M. Price, Mrs. J. M. Miller, Mrs. Gaston Douav and Miss Smith. W. A. G. DANCE. —On the 18th of February in the “Gymmie” was held the W. A. G. dance. The pledge ribbons were pinned on the Fresh¬ men “Wags” during the second dance. The floor wa s not as crowded as at some of the earlier dances, and every one enjoyed “the graceful glide.” W a s h i n g t o n University 2(35 ALUMNI CLUBS. —We here wish to fill a gap in the chronicle of events by mentioning the work done this year to form into organizations the Alumni of the city’s high schools, in an endeavor to reach more closely the Seniors of the respective schools, to make them acquainted with the real conditions existing out here, and by entertaining them from time to time to give them a sort of foretaste of college life. CO-ED EDITION. —On March the first the girls of Student Life Association, with the help of a few contributors from among the other women members of the student body, published the third annual “Co-ed¬ ition of Student Life. The Co-ed-itional staff included Helen Shultz, Florence Grant, Helen Fuller, Blossom Bloss, Edith Baker and Helen Gorse. These not only wrote or collected the material for the paper, but even went to the printer ' s office, read the proofs, and superintended the process of making-up. The aim of the girls in this issue was not only to cover the news of the week, but to set before the University a report of what the women were doing. The first page “Blossomed” out with a very clever “co-ed-ai-vat” on the gentle art of fussing, surrounding an attractive pen sketch of a supposedly typical co-ed deeply engrossed in a book. W a s h i n g t o n University 267 THETA TEA. —On the 16th of February invitations were sent out to the Theta’s friends of the University, inviting them to spend the after¬ noon of the 22nd as their guests, not in a cold camp, as was Valley Forge of yore, but at a cozy tea party in South St. Louis. The ‘‘friends ’ likened to a gigantic army, made all preparations to descend upon the Shenan¬ doah and besiege the girls in their stronghold. This movement was very cleverly executed by the army of “friends,” and at 3 o’clock the advance guard broke upon them, but the Thetas quickly conquered and enlisted them on their side. The surrender was received by Miss Julia Brooks, Mrs. Ellen Koken (at whose home was the “cozy tea party”), Miss Lucy Smith and Mrs. D. F. Houston. The invaders were given the liberty of the fort, and under the guidance of charming colonial belles, were taken into the inner room, where the old guard was stationed in the per¬ sons of Mrs. Frances Dawson, Jane Knight and Gladys Gruner. In a second room black and gold, the official sorority colors, formed the decorative scheme. A large central table was showered with yellow jon¬ quils. These colors were also seen in the cakes and dainty mints, iced with yellow flowers. Each one’s parole expired only too soon, for at 6 o’clock all were forced to return to their lines. PI PHI TEA. —On Saturday, March 23rd. the fourth birthday of Missouri Beta of Pi Beta Phi was celebrated at the home of Miss Mere¬ dith McCargo, on Bartmer avenue. Everybody on the campus was there, and from three to six. “things” were comfortably discussed over sociable cups of tea and chocolate or cooling plates of ice. Conspicuous in the tea room, bedecked with lavender wistarias and sweet peas, were numerous groups of old friends who, since their graduation, had trodden various ways and had possessed but little oppor¬ tunity for those reunions which are so dear to the hearts of college friends. Of course all the active wearers of the arrow were there, and so bright and smiling did they appear in their pristine freshness that more than one alumna was heard to sigh for the “dalliance and the wit” of former days. In the receiving line were Mrs. J. F. Abbott. Mrs. T. L. Galloway, Mrs. W. S. Curtis, Mrs. Wallace McCargo. Mrs. S. T. Park, Mrs. Harry Wagoner, and Miss Dorothea Frazier. Twelve months have swiftly passed us o’er, May to May. For and against—how stands the score From day to day, The log book of a pleasant year?

II There’s a maid in a magazine down on the shelf Who must be disguised Aphrodite herself. I sat for awhile in a reading-room chair And scrutinized every girl who was there. Not one could I see who might rival in looks The girl whom I found on the shelf by the books. I looked on the campus, I searched on the quad; I paced the broadwalk and the archway 1 trod; I sought all the class-rooms, the street-cars, the cabs; 1 hunted the dorms and T haunted the labs, But still I returned to that pert, witching elf, The dear half-tone maid whom I found on the shelf. I went to the art-school, I painted and etched, I sat in the gardens, 1 daubed and T sketched, In the hope that my quarry might stroll up the path On her way up to History, Econ. or Math. But I came back at last to my maid on the shelf; My lithograph queen’s in a class by herself. I STAND BY MY PRINCIPI.ES AND SEARCH FOR THE UNKNOWN GODDESS. 27l!

Just hear how the trouble began: I look her last week to the Prom. The first one to cut in was Tom, Then second came Jim, and six more after him; I didn’t invite them to come. I filled out her program before, And kept me six dances or more. The stags fell in line and grabbed most of mine, And made me quite righteously sore. The minute we started to dance, Some chump from the sidelines would prance, Just come alongside, fall into my stride. And be off ere I had half a chance. I TURN HOMOCLAST. You certainly understand now Why I propose raising a row. This gun is for Tom, and the bunch at the Prom. I’ll feed Jim this arsenic now.

And being true to me, Doth seem to ask, why should it serve me still, Since my life ' s light shineth on me no more? Ah, you were all I had—my life, my hope; Your touch I saw in ev ' rything; your face Smiled down on me, however deep the gloom. I love you still,—not as you are tonight, But as 1 worshiped you in days agcme; Though you may pass away out of my sight, I love your memory—my beloved one.

Sh!—She has my Frat pin on THE PIN IS MIGHTIER TITAN THE WORD. 284 The Hatche l 1912 Behind the Scenes NE could see by the expression on his face that Si was worried; he concluded his appeal for copy with a peroration that would melt the heart of a Sphinx. “We’ve got to have copy for ten pages in the hands of the printers by Monday morning, or we can’t get the book out on time; the reputation of the “Hatchet 1912’’ is at stake, and upon our shoulders rests the burden of pulling it through with flying colors. Now is the time to show what we can do; don’t let’s lay down on the job when we re passing the three-quarters post and entering the home¬ stretch. We’re too heavily backed to throw the race away now, and May first is pressing so hard at our heels that I can almost ' feel its hot breath on the back of my neck, and if we hesitate one minute now, that proverbial first of May will have us backed into that proverbial corner, panting for breath.” And amid the sobs and sighs of the staff the “Demosthenesean” editor swept from the room. As the true significance of these words settled firmly upon the minds of the assembled staff-members, a death-like silence crept over the sur¬ roundings, and each face wore a “what 11 -we-do-next” expression. Finally, Garrett waxed eloquent, and as he edged toward the door, remarked: T here’s no getting out of it, we’ve got to have ten pages by to-morrow night. Now if I didn’t have that football schedule to arrange—” Here Alice interrupted, and in her most pleasing manner suggested that one long story be written, the girls to start at the beginning and work toward the middle, and the boys to start at the end and work back. The rest of the feminine staff-members, somewhat non-plussed at the lack of interest evinced in the suggestion of their colleague, remained silent. Debatin very ably supported his proposition that every staff-member publish his best English theme of the year; but several dissenting voices induced Frank to withdraw his motion. Lockwood finally hit upon a plan whereby to save the situation, and the face of every member present assumed a “let’s leave it to Preston’’ expression, as he very kindly offered to undertake the task of supplying the ten pages himself, provided the “Hatchet” bear the expense of fur¬ nishing the proper inspiration. Seeing that at least some of the members failed to grasp his entire meaning, he felt duty bound to go into the philosophy of the matter, and when the last member fell asleep, he was explaining,— But it is needless to carry this any farther, for one of the ten pages has been filled. m The Hatchet 19 12 Portraitures of a Few Favorite Fair Ones Suggestions from the Chair of Preventive Heart-Break A Tip on Cupid’s Capricious Capers OW, boys, hearken to this enlightening dissertation upon a few of our fair and favorite co-eds, and thy ways shall be smooth in this vale of sorrows, for when the “black cat night” of youthful poverty is flown you will know just how to ask the right little Maud to take a promenade in the Gar¬ den of Love, and this little Maud, having in these pages seen herself as others see her, will have enough of the mellowness of humility to take you with pleasure. Before going further I think a word about the author is in order. I do not wish you to think, boys, that in trusting me in this important matter you are leaning on a broken reed or building on the sands; so no false modesty will restrain me in speaking about myself. 1 have pursued my study of the coy co-eds (and it is a better bet than any poker hand I ever hacked, that not one fellow in ten knows how coy these co-eds are) so intensively that I am now taking my Freshman year over for the third time. I have fallen under and above their charms time and again; I have fussed and often failed; I have long been endeavoring to solve the painful riddle of their hearts, and I am confident I have arrived at last at the right answer. Although I have spent nearly three years in the Freshman class, I passed my English right out of the box and the memory of Professor Starbird’s criticism is already obliterated : so don ' t he surprised at the flowery fancies found in these pages. To begin with, I firmly believe that for every man there is a maid and that sooner or later “every soul at earth ' s holiest goal will meet the soul that God made its mate;” hut I wish to reduce the possibilities of mistaken identities and false goals. Every fair face is not an affinity ; every breath of the “divine afflatus” is not indicative of much, nor is every shady bench a holy goal. No one would think of pairing a Percheron and a Pierce Arrow, or a bank president and a beggar. Therefore do not irrationally take your partners for life or even for the Senior Prom. Washington University 287 There is in one of the under classes a young lady now acquiring beaux, bouquets and grades of B at an alarming rate. Some say that she is holding with a rope of tested textiles half the eligibles in college. Her features, taken separately, would attract no attention, and yet the cumulative effect of her charms is wonderful, and many are the striking and telling triumphs that her eyes have won. Youth, genial intelligence, and above all, a pair of blue eyes and not an icy regularity, a “faultily faultless beauty,” are her capital. Besides, who would analyze the dewy freshness of the rose, or apply the artistic canons of Leon¬ ardo da Vinci and Lessing to a pretty girl? She often comes to college hallowed in a love of a white hat, and if glances could kill she would even now be dead. Now, this voting lady adorns a campus and points a moral. The great numbers who have lost out in appearing as Hero in her sight; the many who dwell only on the wan and shadowy shores of memory, because their success in her eyes is entirely’ a matter of the past, attest what an undertaking the siege of her heart is. Lnless y r ou are a super¬ man (and few undergrads may be supermen in a girl ' s eye), I would take one of the many captivating courses in fussing that may be found in the college curriculum before competing in her direction, and when you do go forth to battle, remember that although you may be an Adonis in looks and a Hercules in accomplishments, you must arm yourself with the magic talisman of indifference, or sadly y : our suit will fare. Learn from her the mistake of speaking all you feel; she appreciates a com¬ pliment: she takes an artist’s delight in the phrase that glitters but is not gold, but she will, in all probability, never feel the full force of sincere sentiment until some day she meets the above-mentioned soul at the above-mentioned goal. If you think you are this soul then outdo Romeo pleading with Juliet; but if you are only a youth lucky enough to take her to a dance, believe the word of one who has tried both ways, and who is wise in the wisdom of failure, and don’t let your heart well over. There is another young lady on our campus whose beauty has wrought horrible havoc. She comes from a school in the southern part of our city, and it is whispered that it was the same even there. Her first loves were the mighty heroes of the past, and her first crushes Helen and Dido. Brown-haired, youthfully fresh, as she bends over her 288 The Hatchet 19 2 books in the library, it seems as though there should be a law passed forbidding Christian girls to waste their time on heathen heroes. More than one soulful swain has discovered that in looks he could not compete with Paris, in bravery with Achilles, or in nobleness of char¬ acter with Oedipus. When a chap wishes her to walk with him and to bask in the beauty of Forest Park she prefers to read about the leafy vales of Cithara and the rocky scenery of Delphi. Alas! alas! but these classic boys are mighty barriers against the hearts of modern maidens lightly turning to thoughts of us. However, she generally finds time to steal out to the Lock and Chain, and “I have only one left on mv pro¬ gram is the burden of her song. The lesson she teaches is that an all-around ladies’ man must be a classical scholar. She is but one of many girls who have to be wooed with good grades. Tolerant of much, she is merciless with bad marks. An A in Latin will help you more, boys, than a handsome face, social graces, or an athletic record. She sat behind me one term when I got an F in Greek, and at present zero is hardly low enough for my stock. The way to her heart is a long, long road that winds across the hilltops of Ida and the heathers on the plains of Troy. We also have a co-ed with us of histrionic temperament and terp- sichorean fame. If you have never seen her dance, neither De Swirskv nor Pavlowa can compensate you. In the course of her graceful career on the stage she has danced with many a youth, and in every case she has danced his heart away. The remarkable part of this is that each one of her admirers remains around; although the years are long and the beaux are many, “sturdy and staunch they stand.” and, like the little toy friends in Eugene Field’s poem, they arc true. Far be it from me, however, to insinuate that her friends are toys. One of them is a com¬ poser of note, and it has been whispered by a certain ubiquitous Bluejay that a youth of gridiron fame is competing strongly. Then there are besides too many other lesser lights that seem to have a good chance for me to enumerate them here. The moral that all may learn from her case is that constancy will cover a multitude of sins, and that although you may have neither brawn nor brain, there are girls who will like you just because “you are you.” With these be sure that you are yourself, and do not masquerade with Washington University 289 another’s manners or speak another’s words, even though that other be William Shakespeare, Doctor Lowes, or he who wrote “Quadrangle Town.” Now, boys, in conclusion, T wish to state that if you will consider the girls here described as both types and as individuals, and if you will follow the advice given above, you will be successful in your suits and will not have to apply to Laura Jean Libbey for any first aids. Know when to be sincere and soulful, have good looks, possess the ability to master the classics, to write mighty melodies, play football, and, above all, at the psychological moment be what, for want of a better phrase, I will call “just yourself,” and all will go well with you in your lighter fancies and blissful at last will be your promenade with your own little Maud in the promised garden. the chancellor ' s home. 290 The Hatchet 1912 College Chaps Whom Co-Eds Love Striking Sketches of a Few Favorite Fussers By McMillan’s Most Meditative Maid AST night as I was just jumping into bed and preparing to pass to the land of dreams (which to many of us co-eds means visions of Lock and Chain dances intermingled with Junior and Senior Proms.), the maid knocked at my door and said that the Hatchet Editor wished to see me. “Why, it is too late,” I said. “No, Miss,” she replied, “it is about Hat¬ chet business and Miss Smith has made an exception in his case. Besides, Mr. Price and Mr. Lockwood are along, and 1 heard them tell Miss Smith they came to insure Mr. Sihler ' s not ‘asking to know’ too much.” Wondering what such a high brow as Si, backed up by two of his staff, could want with poor little me, I got down to the parlor as quickly as I properly could. There I found not only the above mentioned luminar¬ ies, but also all the boys on the Hatchet Board. Silent and sleepy they sat around while the Ed.” showed me that remarkable document, “Por¬ traitures of a Few Favorite Fair Ones.” He said that many of the staff had heard Miss Pankhurst lecture: had come to believe in woman suffrage and had insisted that the girls be represented through an article by me, entitled “College Chaps Whom Co-Eds Love.” “I don’t think much of this idea myself,” concluded Sihler, “but I just had to do what my staff wanted.” On first reading the “Portraitures,” I was astounded. I had never read such deep and subtle psychology outside the pages of Professor Swift’s book; I had never dreamt such an analysis of the madness of love was to be found outside of “Lockslev Hall;” I did not know the male mind was capable of so analyzing a co-ed’s thoughts and loves. The crowning triumph I considered to be the advice at the end. It is so simple and comprehensive and easy for any painstaking, conscientious youth to follow. When I. however, came to writing about the boys I found myself up against a problem far worse than why my blue party dress was so much more becoming than my pink one. And that had long been to me Washington University ; 291 tlie most difficult problem with which I was acquainted. Being in love with so rnanv of the boys myself, I had a great deal of trouble in picking out types to give advice about. On the whole, T suppose, girls, you are all interested in a certain handsome musica l youth who capers somewhat on our campus. During the fall and winter he is dressed immaculately in blue; but promptly on Easterdav, like the wanton lapwing, he gets himself another crest and thereafter appears in gray. During his freshman year he took all the fussing courses offered, and thereafter on any question that has to do with co-eds, the sum of human knowledge is not half what this hoy knows. During his career at Washington University he has shown himself so expert at running co-ed elections that all the suffragettes in the city have promised to make him their political manager if women ever vote in Missouri. At present he is principally engaged in returning black sheep to the “campus four hundred.” Old maid players, coffee drinkers, hoys who don’t pay party calls, who sit up after ten o’clock and do all sorts of horrible things, have recently, through the prestige of his friendship, been kindly received at several pink teas. Truly it is a noble occupation to win wayward youths from the pagan purple of careless ways hack to the peaceful pink of afternoon teas. One distinguishing characteristic of this young man is that he never rushes anyone violently. There is always an even tenor about the way he docs things; hut. like all of the girls in the “Portraitures,” he is strong for the classics, and when a co-ed learns to whisper sweet nothings to him in Greek, T am sure he will take her to two dances in a row. There is another youth among tts, girls, who, strange as it may seem now, used to think that there was little to life save athletics, studies, Sunday school, and an occasional dance. It took him nearly three years to appreciate the fact that the dark riddle of the painful universe could onlv in realitv he solved when looking into some co-ed ' s eyes in the arch¬ way. Before lie seemed utterly oblivious to the truth that theories of taxation and the philosophy of Socrates and Kant only divulge their cryptic meanings when some fair one is by your side silently encouraging you. It makes no difference to him who the fair one is, and this, in his words, “demonstrates the cosmic character of my soul. Let ' s raise a 292 The Hatchet 1912 paean of thanks, girls, because this promising youth ' s eyes have at last been opened and he now realizes that there are higher and better things in a college life than scholastic honors, athletic triumphs, regularity at Sunday school, and a moderate amount of society. In these little sketches I must, by no means, forget a certain youthful Sophomore who has, in the course of two short years, been very attentive to a score of girls, among whom was one of those charmingly described in the “Portraits.” This chap’s method is to meet a girl and for several months rush her and her alone. When thinking of her there is for him a new pleasure in the flowers and a new glory in the grass. Tie braves the ire of the Seniors and fusses her on the Library Arcade and the Archway. The florists cannot grow enough flowers; the theatres offer enough gootl plays. This constancy is inspiring while it lasts, but, like most good people and good things, it does not last long. For some time now he has been remarkably constant: but the time of his unmooring is probably near at hand, and who knows but any one of you may be the fortunate girl if you will only be sufficiently soulful and sweet. And then the flowers and the theaters! Confident that I have pictured at least a few campus “cut-ups” faith¬ fully, 1 will not attempt to go into the subtleties of psychology indulged in by the author of the “Portraitures,” but I will leave you to draw your own conclusions, and if they are wrong, to the tender mercies of Laura Jean Libbey. 294 The Hatche l 1912 The Campus T lias very often been said by persons visiting our University that the campus and the buildings are ideal and impress one with the real college spirit. Without doubt this is a fact, and the surprising thing is, that one who frequents these halls of learning daily scarce appreciates the beauty and grandeur. But let us stop a moment and consider what must be the impression made upon a stranger as he approaches the campus. Coming up from Skinker Road the visitor sees stretched out before him a long avenue, gently rising and merging into the broad, impressive flights of red granite steps leading up the terraces that form the fore¬ ground to University Hall. This, a long, two-story building of the Tudor Gothic style of architecture, extends to either side from the central arch¬ way. Surmounting the central part of the building are the four strong, massive towers, only two of which are seen, of course, from the front. As a visitor comes up the flights of stairs he begins to catch glimpses through the archway of another building beyond, also long and impres¬ sively constructed, but fronted with a long arcade, gracefully relieving what would otherwise be a too massive and too monotonous face. Passing within now our friend is struck by the maze of paths and cross paths in the quad; but let him remember that this is as it is at Oxford and he will understand. In order not to let himself go entirely astray, because he is almost completely overcome by the many interesting and truly beautiful bits of architecture which he sees, our guest starts toward his left, and there he inspects Busch Hall, the home of chemistry. He returns, and now walking along the arcade of the library he fully appreciates the grandeur of his surroundings, the large, massive red gran¬ ite buildings, decorated by the soft white stones and all covered over with the creeping ivy. He is taken back to the days of the good Queen and imagines himself in the courtyard of some mediaeval stronghold. With a last, lingering look back at complete harmony in architecture within and hastily retracing his steps outside along the arcade, he finds himself in the path leading to the “dorms” and to the “Gym.” As he goes he is attracted by the low, rather unimposing Eads Building, at first thinking it but an extension of the library to which the architect must have devised a queer means of entrance. On his left is the broad LAW SCHOOL AND LIBRARY. 296 The Hatchet 19 12 expanse of Forest Park with the Chancellor’s home in the distance. Even from where he is he can see that its unique bit of architecture is most noteworthy. This he is informed is the latest addition to the P niversity and somehow or other he is fascinated by the quaint structure. Our visitor now looks straight in front of him and sees on the left of the path a long narrow building, extending he knows not how far, and facing this a smaller building, not long but with roof slanting from the center and surmounted at each corner by a graceful tower. 1 his is the Graham Memorial Chapel. Tlie two dormitories. Tower and Liggett, do not take much of his time, though he is interested in seeing how the boys live. His journey is now toward the Gymnasium. This squat-looking little building with its two stumpy towers in the center forms quite a contrast to the buildings he has seen so far; but it looks like a surly bull-pup guarding the western end of our campus. Our guest too is impressed by the large athletic field adjoining, with the huge grandstand, where seating capacity is ten thousand. And so he finally gets to McMillan. That is another revelation to him. Can it be that this exquisite bit of architecture is the women’s dormitory? He means no slights to our co-eds, but our friend, as you see, is not quite up with the advance made here at Washington. He is truly amazed and still more so when he is shown about the place and sees the neat, clean rooms of the girls, the finely appointed dining room and the“Gym- mie,” that miniature of the one he has just visited. After a hurried but thorough inspection of Cupples Two, the home of the Engineers; Cupples One, the Architects’ rendezvous, and the knowledge-laden quarters of the Law School, our friend finds himself a wiser but let us hope not a sadder man, once more in the archway, ready to go back to the city and to tell, if he can only remember, the many novel and interesting things he has seen. And rest assured, he has truly appreciated the value of all, though he has not gazed long and fervently at each of them. The sun has set, and as he steps out upon the terrace to begin his descent, he sees before him again St. Louis, but here and there, all over, are twinkling, dancing, a thousand tiny little lights. And as the gloom thickens and the air grows cooler a feeling almost of sentiment comes over him, but with a twitch in his face that shows he is but human, he goes on his course. 298 The Hatchet 1912 A Word of Thanks The “1912 Hatchet” Board is deeply indebted to the following contributors, and extends to them its thanks: Art Mr. A.

S. ARMY. The U. S. Army authorities know a gun; that is why, when they decided to equip some troops with repeating shotguns, they selected the Win¬ chester in preference to all other makes. The experts of the U. S. Ordnance Board also know a gun; that’s why, after submitting a Winches¬ ter Repeating Shotgun to all sorts of tests, they pronounced it safe, sure, strong and simple. If you want a shotgun—buy the one whose strength and reliability led the U. S. Army authorities to select it and the U. S. Ordnance Board to endorse it—that’s the Winchester.
