Theodora Thacher College St. Louis, Mo, ©istorp of ti)e (Hlass of 1916 BRIEF four years ago there entered a Freshman class, two hundred strong, which the events of this brief space of time have shown could have well adopted the motto, “Nothing Impossible.” In the support of this broad statement I shall briefly summarize the most momentous events which have be¬ fallen us. Epoch 1. “It must be admitted that, on September 26, when we first congre¬ gated around the Freshman wall, we were a motley-looking crowd. The only similarity between any two of us was our headgear, which was exceedingly regular. However, it took us but a short time to redeem our looks by our prowess as a class.” Very shortly there appeared among us leaders in every kind of student activity. The first “impossible” happened when we beat the Sophs, in football in a manner so decisive as to leave no doubt of our supremacy. This was quickly followed by one of the most successful “Fresh¬ man Proms” ever given at the University. To cap the climax of this unusual year, we gave the Sophs, the roughest fight they ever were in, and in less than one-half the required time, had captured the coveted banner of ' 15. Many other things happened in that year, but they are too numerous to mention here, save that the total effect was to show that we were “some” class. Epoch 2. This was destined to be a year of repeated victories and the events soon proved it. For though our ranks had been decimated by the “Plague of Blue Books and Final Exams,” we were still a husky gang. Which fact we soon began to impress upon the minds of the unsophist¬ icated Freshmen. The annual Freshman-Sophomore football game was handily won, 19-0, by the Sophomores. Winning two years in succession, that’s our record! Next came the biggest and fiercest class fight ever waged. But our steel bird’s-nest easily withstood the repeated assaults of the Freshmen, ’ regardless of their numbers. Nine o’clock found us as secure as ever, with our flag untouched. This was the first time since 1905 that the Sophs won this fight, and it was also our second victory. Some class! Spring found us working hard in track and baseball, with the result that we won the Drosten Cup by beating the Freshmen in both basket¬ ball and baseball, losing the dual track meet by only a narrow margin. Thus closed the second stage of our eventful career. Epoch 3. Having beaten both the class ahead of us and the one behind us in all of the major encounters between classes, we decided it was now time to turn from the athletic to some other field of endeavor. This was manifested during our first semester only in our class¬ room work. But during the second semester we again startled the community; this time with a Junior Prom, that has been unequaled since, and has fixed the style in the matter of decorations for some little time to come. Then followed in rapid succession a “High-Class Minstrel Show and Dance,” and the “Danceless Class Party” given for the benefit of Engineers of non-terpsichorean ability. Still other members of our class devoted themselves with intense application to the publication of a fitting year book for our enthusiastic class. See the ’16 “Hatchet” for further proof. Epoch 4. Finally we have arrived at the last and most impressive part of our career. We are Seniors and very dignified, attending chapel regularly in Cap and Gown. Our ranks have been greatly thinned, but it is has been a survival of the fittest. It has been our ambition during our four years’ stay at Washington, to add at least a little to the charm we have so keenly appreciated; to make our Alma Mater a better and brighter school, no matter in how small a degree, for our successors; and we hope that those who follow us will find our work a source of cheer and help in theirs. The time is now at hand when we must leave to them the heritage of our endeavors and our hopes. We cannot look forward to it without regret as we think of the companionships and associations we are about to lose. Other affairs and concerns will claim us, but the fondest of farewells and the tenderest of recollections will mark the parting of the Class of 1916. W. F. M. E. L.

P. came to me in great distress. “I must have help at once!” said J. P., and his man¬ ner showed me that something really serious was on his mind. He led me out of the Library into the Arcade. “I asked Alice to help me and she insists that she will not be able to do any work of any kind for a month,” said he, “and that will be too late.” “She won’t help you do what?” I asked him finally. “The Hatchet, the Hatchet,” answered J. P., angrily, “the Hatchet.” “Why, the Hatchet is all right, old fellow,” I said. J. P. clasped his hands in desperation and uttered an oath. “The history of the Junior Class hasn’t been written yet, and the last of the Hatchet goes to press to-morrow!” For a while I could not speak. The situation was too enormous—of all histories, that of the Junior Class to be left for an eleventh hour mud¬ dling ! “J. P.,” I finally said, a bit sternly, “it can’t be done—it’s too great a task!” I thought of the perfection to which Ben, the two Ed’s, Maguolo and the other faithful seconds had brought the Hatchet of 1917. The cheers of a grateful grandstand rang through my ears as I thought of the Juniors who had led the Myrtle and Maroon on to victory. The ap¬ plause of a delighted audience in the Victoria, more powerful because more recent, drowned out the football cheers. The rapping of hammers, busy on the construction of the Elizabethan stage, sharply brought me to a realization of myself. The Annual, the Football Season of 1915, Track, May Day, Circus, Vaudeville, Student Life, the Eliot, the Hatchet, this very Pageant itself—all these things that have been, and are to be made glorious by the work of “ ’17,” were to be unheralded by a history of the Class 1 I hung my head in shame. “J. P.,” said I, “we have betrayed a trust! Our procrastination has—” “Stop!” cried J. P. “I can’t stand it—it’s all my fault.” He turned his face away and his body shook with sobs. The dandelions winked up at me with roguish eyes. The two birches in front of the Library nodded in the wind. The halyards flap¬ ping loosely on the flag poles caught my eye and I thought that when one of the Class of T7 was Editor-in-Chief of Student Life then the flags would finally come, and suddenly I turned to J. P. with a new light. I felt like Bunker Bean when, after the destruction of his mummy, he awakens to a full realization of himself. “J. P.,” said I, “our class doesn’t need a written history.” And that, my less fortunate dears, is the reason why there is not here set down a prosaic record of the deeds of the Class of Seventeen. E. N.

Lyle Stuart- ” ” Ci)e i3 opt)omore Class N relating the history of the Class of 1918, we have aimed to sum up the occurrences of our first two years in col¬ lege. Of course, none of us are likely to forget what a queerly assorted bunch we were, there were tall and lanky ones, short and fat ones, red haired and freckled ones, and on top of each was a little grey Freshman cap, _ while in the sticky hand of each was tightly clasped a Freshman Bible. Then we did our best, by giving a very celeb rated Frosh Prom. But the very best we could do, did not avail against the crafty ruse on the part of the Sophomores, which lost us the Annual Tree” Fight At the swimming meet, however, a victorious freshman team demonstrated. Then again, the enmity between the two classes ended with the Love Feast, a real Hague peace conference By the beginning of the Sophomore year our numbers had decreased noticeably. But the old-time spirit had not decayed, as we proceeded to show by giving unique parties. The first of these was a Halloween party Two kegs of cider were the most effective part of the decoration, a part even enjoyed by the girls. But this Halloween dance was as nothing compared with that memorable Leap Year Party which was little short of a stunner. The girls did the drawing, escorted their partners to the dance (one even hired a taxi), filled out the men s pro¬ grams, and were far more gentlemanly than could have been expected. Not only have we been successful in our social functions, but we have been generally victorious in our athletics. The substitution of the obstacle race, push ball contest, and tug-of-war for the far-famed free Fight left our class at a disadvantage. Luckily, we won the obstacle race, mainly because our men had more experience at jumping fences on the run and diving into kegs. Then came the pushball contest. After the two classes had fined up and had enjoyed some intimate companion¬ ship, the spectators noticed a few individuals in the rear ranks of the Freshmen turn and run for the gymnasium; their apparel was akin to that of Adam’s. These mysterious disappearances every once in a while, lessened the ranks of our opponents; and the formidable (and fully clad) wedge jolting the verdant remnant soon won the combat. The Freshman-Sophomore football game was the next event. This affair was the hardest fought and most evenly matched contest seen at Francis Field during 1915. At dusk one of our ends, after a consultation with the quarter-back, mingled with the crowd on the side lines, cautiously crawled over the goal line, and in great secret, gently deposited the ball behind the post. As regards basketball, we voice our congratulations to the Frosh on their superb showing. The Sophomore girls have also had their triumphs. The Sophomore hockey team having gone through the season without defeat, v r ere declared champions. In conclusion it might be said that we are also looking into the future, as plans are already being made for our Junior Prom. Our ambi¬ tion is not only to equal, but to surpass the success of our worthy predecessors. This will be about all. H. M. B.—L. L. S.

One night he said, “My dearest love this day you must remember; The year is nineteen hundred and fifteen, the month September; For in this great portentous month a strange event took place, That is to play a vital part in the history of the race. To-day assembled on the earth a mighty, thronging mass, Which called itself ‘The Noble, Th’ Illustrious Freshman Class.’ But vain were their desires! The Seniors let no time elapse Before they sent the Freshmen forth in puerile Freshmen caps. But still undaunted they moved on, and, by my mighty steeds! 61 The whole wide world is talking of their gallant valiant deeds. When bold Missouri bit the dust beneath the Pikers’ lash, Did not the Stadium resound with tumult and with crash Of Freshmen cheers which rose above the voices of the rest In welcoming the victory for nine years unpossessed!” Old Mrs. Phoebus told her friends the Planets and the Stars, Who spread the news to Jupiter, and Jupiter told Mars. One chill October evening while twilight fast was dwindling, When Mars had fed his dogs of war and brought in all the kindling, He burst into his flat with laugh both hale and hearty, And to his smiling spouse he said: “Just see that Freshman party.” “Ah, gracious me!” his good wife said, “Why look at that valance. Those silly girls are all dressed up, and for a simple dance. I’m going right across the street to call on Mrs. Saturn; I ' d like to have a dress like that — perhaps she’s got .the pattern.” lust then a little Saturnue qame running from the street. He sobbed and cried, “Ah, rtio ' ther dear, the Freshie boys got beat. The Sophomores were s ' elfis-h and they wanted all the glory; They won the pushbalFcontest ' -by their- charges fierce and gory. “Don’t cry, my son,” said Mrs. Sat, ‘-‘but jump upon your disc, And ride down to the corner an ' d. you’ll see the Obelisk. The pledges all have barrows which are tied with ribbon bows, And as they walk around the quad, quite awkward is their pose. But soon their trouble will be done and then each happy member Will step out to the Obelisk dance, the 10th day of December. The little Saturn did as told. Returning to his ‘mom ' He said, “Why mother did you see? They had a Freshman prom.” In colors gay of green and white the gym was decorated; And as each Freshie homeward went that night, he felt elated. For every one was quite agreed that this young Freshman class Was one” that surely would succeed in all that came to pass. But. ah! That time devoid of hope—that gloomy, joyless day When every Freshie took exams, especially History A. “Well, all is o’er, the worst is done.” Said Phoebus to the rest. If any flunk it will be that they didn’t do their best, For that’s a class of great renown, of everlasting glory; And some dav thev’ll be Seniors great—but that’s another story.” G. M. W.—J. H. K.

HE manner of life of the members of the Class of 1916 does not differ materially from that of any other collection of persons. They roll certain ivory cubes, they pursue the wind-driven skirts of the fairer sex across the brick-laid paths of the campus, they drive up in machines with great clatter, they smoke, chew gum and even tobacco, they toss coins and tell old stories with new zest, they criticise one another, they walk with mincing steps when they get high grades and turn up their noses at chance opinions, they make clever cynical remarks without meaning, smile wisely, complain bitterly about work they have not done and lie about work they have done, they sit for hours with books before them thinking on other matters, they ask the professors what they are too lazy to think about, they cram for examinations and promptly forget what they crammed, they are late as often as they may be and beforehand when they are overcut, they sing and swear, eat and drink like ordinary mortals, and think themselves unusual in some secret particular. The Class of 1916, was and is remarkable chiefly for three reasons: First, for the variety of opinions held by its members on all subjects. In any cause there may be found not only a plaintiff and defendant, but 78 a host of intervenors. The class has never been, and never will be, in accord on any proposition. The individual members reflect in their actions the particular environment in which they attained majority, and no lecturer by dint of kind words, by shouts, threats or gestures, ever eradicated these fundamental differences. They recognize no leader, lie who might have ruled the class, might rule the world. Second, they had a sense of humor. Perhaps this quality did not extend to the point where each might laugh at his own follies — the starting-point of all wisdom, but in general, when there was humor to be extracted from any situation, it was extracted. Humor being but a keen sense of disproportion, the class may well value this possession. Finally, with regret, we must name another quality: — the love of procrastination. From the first row, where sat Mrs. Blass ready to answer “Present,” Freund with a folio of execrable free verse, Amos with a dashing sketch of the professor, from the first row to the shel¬ tered nook of the window where Forster snored audibly and the Thomp¬ sons sat dreamily staring into space, all were guilty. No work was done till a sudden rumor spread that NeuhofF had consumed bodily four volumes of Lord Coke, till the leaders were frightened by fears of secret work in camera, and the probability that someone would get 97, instead of 96. From this brief statement of facts we must draw our conclusions. The Class of 1916 could not be more typically American if the boy who entered the general demurrer concerning the cherry tree, had picked them out himself. We are sorry not to have been able to arrive at a more startling conclusion, but are sure that no superior court will over¬ rule us. RULE ABSOLUTE.

No further proof of this need be necessary than the frank statement that the class contains in its make-up a practicing doctor, a practicing minister of the Gospel, a practicing brakeman, and a man with pink whiskers. J he characters, rather than the events, are the particular bright spots in this history; therefore, they shall be dwelt upon in preference These characters may be classified into the elements as follows: 1. The quiet, reserved, scholarly Phi Beta Kappa, Phi Delta Phi element. ( 1 his element bore out their name well except at the two class banquets.) It is made up of Allen of Princeton. Stahl of Missouri and Holmes of Princeton. This class might well be called the life-saving element. 2. I he comedian element — those who study law by way of enter¬ taining others. I his element may be divided into two groups, the attempted comedians and the unattempted comedians. Of these, the latter are to be preferred. Their wit is more spontaneous. Milligan of Monmouth, who gave the term Regina life, stands out prominently among these. The names of the attempted comedians may as well be passed over. They are something like appendixes, which you always have but wish you hadn’t. 3. The fact adders or the adders of fact. Those fellows who always say, YY ell, suppose the gun had been loaded, would that have made any difference?” J. YV. Gepperet is now said to be one of the greatest fact adders in any state. 4. The decision disagreers — the people who can’t quite see why the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court should have based his opinion on such a mere technicality. They have the right to disagree because the Chief Justice is only a man like they are, which is probably true, “prirna facie.” 3. The feminines, Gertrude Kipp and Marguerite Zoff, placed in the class to fill the vacancy between Underwood and Newport.. 6. The rest of the gang, who read the cases on the days they are to be called on, and rest in between times. b h llrAH OPit DfTtOTi.

Although exhibiting a great variety of unusual psychoneuropathic strains, the entire group is characterized by the particular delusion that they are Doctors of Medicine. Fortunate indeed for the unsus¬ pecting public that this group was captured before it actually began its reign of death-dealing slaughter and deadly therapusis. This little fat fellow, ambling toward us with a grin on his face, was sent to the institution from Wisconsin. The diagnosis in his case is very easy, even though you did not know that the Binct Simon tests show his mental development to be that of a child of four and one-half years. His large companion, chuckling beneath his adiposis imbeciliosis, came to this place from Kansas. The Binct Simon tests were not con- 97 7 sidered necessary in his case. Look out! 1 hat fellow trying to slip up on you while your back was turned is possessed with the idea that he is a real surgeon. His most violent threat is that he will perform an appendectomy before escaping to his harem in far off Utah. The austere and intellectual-looking patient wearing the large glasses and red mustache is a very deceptive study in multiple personality; the wiser he looks, the less he knows. His favorite impersonation is that of “Head Doctor’’ of the O. B. out-patient department. Elsewhere he is known as Batty.” In that group of three playing pitch are to be found three good examples of Dementia Praecox. Polly, the good- looking one, is a hopeless case. He calls himself K. P. The lean one, smoking a stogie, is a sad case because he married some years ago and now has a little son who has very little chance with such a father. Their silent partner thinks he is Haley’s comet. This old man with a wrinkled face shows an excited type of Dementia Senilis. He escaped from the institution last Christmas and got married, after which exacerbation he has been unmanageable and we have had to send for his wife to come and get him. These two patients sitting on this bench, with their backs toward each other, are both descendants of the Holwent family, whose members have filled the asylums of Virginia and North Carolina for the past one hundred years. They both vigorously deny the relationship between them. Coming toward us with his eyes closed, is “Bowser” — exhibiting that baffling sensorial phenomenon, Dammerstande, or the twilight state. While in this constant dreamy state, the intricate medical prob¬ lems are very simple to him, — such differential diagnoses as those be¬ tween Ophthalmia Neonatonum and Keratodernia Erythematiosa senilis, he considers as nothing at all. I see you’ve been watching that tall, heavy-set, serious-looking patient rushing around the room, squinting through a head mirror and holding an ear speculum in one hand and a proctoscope in the other, while a Smithie’s stomach tube trails from his hip pocket. Plis great delusion consists in his belief that all the accumulated medical knowl¬ edge from Hippocrates to Schwab and Mook rests in his own cortex cerebri. That tall blond, vainly trying to keep up with him, also comes from Wisconsin and is in the institution because of his blind credulity for the theories of his companion. When asked for his opinion about any matter, he always begins by saying. “Schmidt says.” Those two standing by themselves, the short one trying to pose as a man of great wisdom and the long one laughing at him, are new arrivals from Kan¬ sas—their particular type of psychosis has not been decided upon as yet. This foolish-looking Scotchman trying to slip something in my pocket is the craziest patient we have. He thinks he is Louis Pasteur, but he is not. I am Pasteur myself. k Cijc Junior JHetucal Class of 1917 Members Samuel Frank Abrams, B.S. Henry Spence Brookes, Jr. Clarence John Brown, B.S. Wilbur Kenneth Brown, A.B.

Frederick Efner Wrightman, A.B. junior JPlrtitc tstorg EP PEMBER saw the Junior Medics assemble from many parts to take up their work in the inspiring atmosphere of V ashington Medical School, with its new equipment. The original class already felt quite at home, but many were newcomers. Several came from the State Uni¬ versities of Missouri, Kansas and Wisconsin, and even one came with his Southern accent from Wake Forest, Carolina. Although two of the former members of the class, Eliot and Shackelford, had been drawn from the direct path that leads to M.D., to take assistantships, the additions from other schools increased the class to more than double its original number. It is indeed unfortunate that space does not permit each of the thirty-six meritorious individuals that compose our class to receive spe¬ cial mention. Yet some there are who must not be forgotten. McNally, Wallace and Brookes compose our entertainment committee, and the effectiveness of their efforts to keep gloom away is appreciated by all except Dinsmore. He, in spite of all the earnest activities of the trio, continues to worry. During the year many of the boys have suffered from “dislocation of the eyebrow.” The malady was at one time quite epidemic, and only a few who, like “Bob” Mueller, have a “compulsory immunity,” escaped. With the exception of Wallace and “W. K„” all have made good recoveries. At Christmas time it was thought’ that Wallace, too, had recovered, but he has since suffered a relapse. It has been rumored that Tormey and Peacock are doing work with the shovel gang, and “W. K.” has passed out the information that he chooses to be called “Doctor.” It seems imprudent to speak of the German element of the class, for any remarks might be considered as violations of neu¬ trality ; and as to the Irish, one needs only to refer to the class roll to see that they are plenty among us. Although all cannot hope to be such shining lights in the true sense of the word as Callaway and Myers, the members of the Class of 1917 are looking ahead to a great future and trusting that at the end of the year, when those who rule” strive to block the way, no unsurmountable barrier will come between them and their goal. All alike are now long¬ ing for the day when the last “quiz” shall be over and each shall receive his hard-earned title of “Senior.” Cl)t i opf)omore jflctucal Class of 1918 t-t aro Members Joseph Wallace McKee William Leland Mitchell Hugo Muench, Jr., A.B.

The gentle spirit of this group of would-be doctors was shown by its humanitarian treatment of the Freshmen. In fact, it helped rather than hindered the new men. The rumor has been heard that the cause of this gentleness was in the unusually large size of the lower class, especially in comparison with that of the Sophomores, but “ ’18” firmly asserts that the good will that has existed between the two classes has been due to the kindness of heart on the part of “ ’18” itself. The past year has been spent partly in “Path,” partly in “Phys,” and partly at the slide window. Except for occasional small battles at the latter place, life at the Medical School has not been unusually event¬ ful. Of course, the Class Party should be mentioned, but its significance would not be seen by the public at large, so a bare mention of it is enough. Among the most notable and notorious who attended the affair were “Kansas City Pete” McKey, “Elongated Red” Terrill, the barn painter; “Bromo Selzer” Mitchel, with his unending stock of songs; Hans Anderson, with his “widow;” “Dodge” Muench, of chauffeur fame ; Moxey, a trifle delayed; Sam Withers, on time as always, and “Krauter” Pessel.

Of course, he will claim them to be the best ever. We are represented in our class by men from many different spots in the United States and also from a far-away country. For instance, we have Ilassem Omar (not speaking of cigarettes) from Egypt, the great man of the skull. We have several coming anatomists in Cargile, who hails from Arkansas, and also in Kohlbry, Morrison, Brooks and several others of this city. The chemistry sharks are un¬ surpassed, for in Sparks and Raffl we have the best. Among the Fresh¬ men Medics we have a few who are good at everything. I feel safe in saying that the whole class has learned what real work is since they have entered the Medical School. Upon registering, the programs looked very easy—with part of Monday afternoon and all of Wednesday afternoon off—but, as the trimester went on, work began piling up so that we had no more afternoons off. We have now become accustomed to the work and there should be many Nefs, Fishers, Cowpers, Campers and Pasteurs among the crowd. We are certain that we will make the eyes of those following us and of others ahead of us look up to us as eminent physicians or surgeons. Watch for our names in later years or watch our progress in the next three years. We started out with thirty-two in number but now have twenty-eight who are sticking right together. Of the four who quit, some went over in regular college work (arts and sciences) and the others stopped for reasons unknown. W. C.

This class has always looked upon itself with pride and confidence, whether it was because it made the Junior Class of ' 13 show the white flag or whether it be mere egotism, it is hard to say, but nevertheless we are proud of ourselves and our chosen profession. LL 12S While we all look forward to the day of graduation, we still realize how hard it will be to say “good-bye” to our old classmates who have come so closely into our lives and who for three years have helped so loyally to bear the difficulties and obstacles that always go with the things that are worth having. We shall always remember with reverence the debt we owe to the Dean and Faculty for the kindness, patience and knowledge they have so generously bestowed upon us during our stay here.

Each man, having duly passed inspection by John, King of the High Priests, was assigned to the tender mercies of the Instructors to His Majesty. To High Priest Forestor fell the task of revealing to us the most important and most tedious portion of the initiation. In his sacred cell many profitable hours were spent delving into the secrets of the organization, and under his guidance the thirty-nine associates endeavored to apply the principles that had been expounded by the learned Doctors. The brothers have already shown marked favoritism to the various Leaders whose fields have for them the greatest appeal. Some have worshipped in the clinic, while eight illustrious young men have so at¬ tached themselves to the Pathology Department that they may often he seen in the laboratory, struggling over intricate problems until long after closing hours. In the technical laboratory, however, all of the brothers have vied with one another, each trying to display the greatest devotion to the science of Dentistry. Although much time has thus been spent in consecrated effort, yet John, the King of Priests, has often felt called upon to end the efforts of the Glee Club, whose songs, like certain diseases, are apt to break out at any moment. Nor have sports been neglected, for the brethren have acquired uncanny accuracy in hurling plaster chairs at inquisitorial Freshmen. By much application, diligence, and united effort we dealt so sound¬ ly with the last Mid-Year’s Examinations that King John felt moved to speak publicly in council concerning us. “Never,” said he, “have my Junior subjects shown so great an intimacy with the most hidden secrets of the profession. All praise to them.” The men of Nineteen Hundred and Seventeen have indeed responded nobly and truly to the efforts of the Expositors. We have played hard, but have worked even harder. We have taken our work most seriously, and have prepared ourselves for the tasks of the future. And not one of Saint Appollonias’ secrets that has been revealed to us has failed to impress upon our minds the true dignity and responsibility of the Science of Dentistry.

An altogether natural and pardonable feeling of timidity, pardonable because of the unusual strength of the Sophomores, threw the individual members of the class upon one another so continually for strategic pur¬ poses that they had soon become a well-acquainted body. A temporary election placed “Budd” Kling in the President’s chair, with Stark acting as Secretary. The final organization of the class took place on November 27, when the class elected Brandenburg, President; Stark, Vice-Presi¬ dent; Beinker, Secretary; Petty, Treasurer; Nelson, Sergeant-at-Arms, and Kling, Hatchet Representative. The class soon gave active signs that it intended to uphold the reputation for “pep” that has been established at the Dental School in the last few years. They not only acquired a proficiency in tossing plaster casts hither and yon, in an apparently dilatory manner, but with most amazing effectiveness, thereby discouraging similar aesthetic exercise on the part of the Sophomores, but also took an important part in Campus Athletics. Benway, Nelson, and Harding found places for themselves on the Freshman Squad, while “Buddy” Kling, on the Varsity, was one of the most dependable of the many good pieces with which Edmunds played the victorious season. But if work, play, spirit and general attitude can be taken as any criterion, then to account for all the good fellows in the class would make it appear that the writer of this account were trying to compete with the manager of the famous “fifty-seven varieties.” So, we can only say that the present Freshman Dental Class is thoroughly alive in every part of it, and every part of it for the new Washington Spirit, that has truly made the Campus a meeting-place for everyone. ft Edmund Henry Wuerpel VDMUND HENRY WUERPEL.

And, since our accomplishments have been so great, and since we need more room to work in, there has been some talk of a new building for us. When this requirement will be met, is not certain. We must turn from considerations of the future to considerations of the past. ' One past event that places itself uppermost is the Ball. Our “Indian Durbar” was quite a success, both artistically and financially. One element which added to the success was the fact that many more of the guests appeared in costume this year than at our first venture of January, 1915. There have been many other interesting affairs, besides “spring crushes” going on at the Art School. We have been having dances, monthly, and spreads every now and then. One great treat for us was the spread that the new students gave the older students in November. The Art School initiation, which took place the afternoon before Hal¬ loween, was most artistic. It was no ordinary sight to see the poor, little “New Microbes” gathered around the feast table, after the rites had been performed. They formed a band of curiosities ranging from a handsomely painted sardine to the most futuristic creation that one could imagine. Our thoughts for new social activities are now turning toward arrangements for the last day of the term. As yet we have made no definite plans, but we are certain to enjoy ourselves when the time comes. Last year we had the usual banquet with its interesting speeches, and an enjoyable letter from Mr. Wuerpel, who was out West at the time. Then the awards were announced. After this there was a futuristic performance, which included an “Exhibition and Jury Meeting” and a futuristic conception of the Pavlowa Gavotte. This was followed by dancing until the end of the evening. All these good times are outside of working hours. When we work, we do it steadily, and conscientiously. That is why we can afford to play so hard when working hours are over. S. R. I. mm For Excellence of Work in all Classes Edna Rael John M. Heller . Lillian Glaser .

It was suggested that the school be placed in such relation with the Missouri Botanical Garden as to secure to the pro¬ fessors and students the most efficient results. In accepting the pro¬ posal of Mr. Shaw, the corporation named the department the Henry Shaw School of Botany and established a professorship of botany there¬ in, to be known as the Engelmann professorship, in honor of Dr. George Engelmann. Laboratories for undergraduate instruction are maintained at the University and the officers of instruction there are in close touch with the Garden, the extensive facilities of which are most important in many phases of the work. Graduate instruction is given at the Missouri Botanical Garden, where are found an excellent library of 32,785 bound volumes and 42,530 pamphlets, together with 112 volumes of very valuable manuscript; an extensive herbarium, including all classes of plants, contains 700,000 mounted specimens; and a new and well- equipped fire-proof laboratory.

Under the tutelage of Coach W. P. Edmunds, WjfrW) the team won its two hardest games, those against [swSsIt’ Missouri and against St. Louis University. These two victories gave the Pikers a clear title to the champion- ship of the State of Missouri as well as that of the city of St. Louis. The students and alumni showed more spirit and enthusi¬ asm than ever before—a fact well evidenced by the attendance and cheering both at games and during the daily practice sessions. On September 15, forty men turned out for practice, and hard work was begun immediately. On September 25, the Varsity played a listless game against the Alumni team, but on the following Saturday, after Shurtleff had cancelled the scheduled game, the Alumni were again met, with the result that the Varsity left the field victor by the score of 18 to 7. On October 9, the Pikers wiped a debt of nine years’ standing by handing the Missouri Tigers the short end of a 13 to 0 score. The Varsity outplayed our ancient rivals in all departments of the game. The line held like the proverbial stone wall; the fleet Tiger backs were unable to gain either through the forward defense or around the wing positions. Captain “Poge” Lewis made a sensational 65-yard run in the first quarter, and put the ball on Missouri’s 5-yard line. “Pete” Pem¬ berton then carried the ball across the line for a touchdown. Captain Lewis kicked goal, and later booted two field goals. The original team with but one substitution played through the entire game. October 16 saw the Pikers up at Grawfordsville, Ind., battling the W abash Little Giants.” The persistent hammering of the Little Giants,” together with injuries to several of the first string men, sent Washington down to a 13 to 3 defeat. It was at this game that the Varsity men were cheered lustily by the handful of Washington rooters, who journeyed to Crawfordsville via “blind baggage,” etc., and appeared in the stands when the game began. On October 23, the Drury Panthers were tamed at Francis Field to the tune of 38 to 0. T his game was little more than a practice contest, but it gave Coach Edmunds an opportunity to try out his substitute material. 1 he following Saturday the team played Drake University at Des Moines, Iowa. For three-quarters, the Pikers held the long end of the score, but in the last quarter the Drake hoodoo manifested itself and the game ended with the score 26 to 16 in Drake’s favor. At Des Moines as at Crawfordsville, the familiar faces and voices of the handful of itinerant rooters were in evidence. The game scheduled against Knox on November 6 was called off because of the disbanding of the Knox team after the death of one of its players. 1 lie climax of the season came on November 13, when Washington repeated the feat of the previous year by trimming St. Louis University. As indicated by the score, which was 13 to 7 in favor of the Myrtle and Maroon, this game was the hardest fought contest of the year. The outstanding features of the game were the wonderful field generalship of Ralph Gray, who was shifted to quarter-back at the eleventh hour; the phenomenal work of Captain Lewis and his educated toe; Busiek’s touchdown, and the perfect unit team-work of the Varsity. This day was distinctively a Washington occasion. — — Captain “Poge” Lewis—full back—led the Var- sity in excellent fashion. Unfortunately, injuries kept him out of the Drury contest and also hampered him in the game against Drake. His kicking, how¬ ever, at all times bordered on the sensational; the might and skill of his good right toe added materially to Washington point totals. At the close of the season “Poge” was awarded the Busch trophy, for being the most valuable back- field man in St. Louis. Ralph Gray—also a winner of the Busch trophy as the most valuable lineman in the city—played both in the line and in the backfield. He ended his football career as a Piker in the St. Louis U. game. Ralph was a general all-round man, played practically every position on the team at some stage of the season. Ralph was one of the most versatile players Washing¬ ton has ever boasted of. “Bill” Berry, at first an end, was shifted to right halfback in the Drake and St. Louis U. contests and proved to be even better behind the line than at his original wing position. “Bob” Wright, although playing only his second year of football, proved himself invaluable in the line. He was a hard and willing worker, and his loss by graduation leaves a gap in the line that will be hard to fill. Webb Kammerer, general utility man, was called upon to play in many positions. To his credit, it may be said that he played them all well. Injuries pre¬ vented him from holding down a regular position. Webb, “Bob,” “Bill,” Ralph, and “Poge” all closed their football careers at Washington with victory over St. Louis University. “Bon” Busiek, captain-elect for 1916, started the season at end and was later shifted to a halfback position. He was noted for his sure, swift tackling and his consistent line plunging. The latter netted the Varsity its only touchdown in the St. Louis U. game. “Bon” will make an able leader for 1916. “Puff” Martin, K-9, or the disappearing demon of the gridiron, showed flashes of his really phenom¬ enal ability. Lack of consistency prevented his taking a front rank, but he proved to be one of the stars of the St. Louis U. Game. “Dutch” Wetzel played his usual dependable game at center. His accurate passing was no small factor in the Varsity’s success. He has another year to play. “Hack” Hachman proved a tower of strength at left tackle. His side of the line was practically im¬ pregnable. Considering his lack of practice, “Hack” played remarkable football in all the games. He will be in uniform again during the 1916 season. John Grossman played next to “Hack” at the guard position and the two formed an unbreakable combination. Grossman has two years more of foot¬ ball before him at Washington. 155 John Touchstone—Varsity quarter—ran the team in excellent fashion. He had the faculty of calling the right play always at the right time. Unfortunately, “Touch” was declared ineligible on the eve of the final game. “Buddy” Kling, who played end throughout the season, made a specialty of smashing through the inter¬ ference and downing the runner. “Buddy” was a valuable man and will be back in 1916. “Pete” Pemberton — at left halfback — played a swift, smashing game and was a bear at picking holes in the opposing defense. A broken shoulder kept him out of the games during the latter part of the season, but he will be in uniform in 1916. “Mac” McRoberts — lineman and scout — was kept out of the early season games because of in¬ juries. His scouting trips to watch Conference teams in action gave the coaches valuable informa¬ tion and assistance. 157 Emanuel Werner, “Bill” Bernard, “Dutch” Meinholtz, Edgar Schwarzenbach, Trauble Burke, Alfred Caffee were an able corps of substitutes and figured in several games. Werner and Bernard grad¬ uate this year but the others will he with us next season. Coach Edmunds was ably assisted in prepping the above men for the team by “Lin” Milford, ’15, ex-Capt. Pothoff, ’15, Mr. Hagar and Mr. Pratt. The work of these men was a powerful factor in making the 1915 season as successful as it was. The assistant man¬ agers, “Dave” Berger, “Davy” Jones, and Rus” Jolley deserve commendation for the readiness and willing¬ ness to serve. Dr. Lund and his enthusiasm were ever present. Too much praise cannot be given him for the interest he always shows in Washington University athletics. Little Gene Lund brought good luck to the Var¬ sity, and he was voted the best mascot ever. The season ended with a big banquet at the residence of Dr. Lund. There, “Bon” Busiek was elected Captain for 1916. —LEE HARRISON, JR. ■p. JfffJI Li i 1 J JH Officers Manager .

The Piker five annexed the city intercollegiate championship by defeating St. Louis Uni¬ versity in two close contests, for the second consecutive year. The team defeated Kansas University on the basketball floor for the first time in three years, while in the last games of the season the Myrtle-Maroon men played such sterling basketball against tbe Kansas Aggies that those champions felt their titular crown wobble dangerously on their heads. The Varsity, furthermore, defeated the McKinley High School aggregation—a team that won the interscholastic championship and was acknowledged as one of the best in the State—by the top-heavy score of 55 to 24. The season officially was opened at Columbia, Mo., on January 10 and 11, with two games against Missouri University, whose team, hav¬ ing a big advantage in size, weight, and condition, annexed both con¬ tests by the scores of 44 to 22, and 45 to 19, respectively. Coach Edmunds had taken charge of the squad at the beginning of the season, but on the return from Columbia he turned over the players to Coach Friecke, a former Texas University star. Coach Friecke at¬ tacked the situation with vigor and enthusiasm; the results of his good work were soon in evidence. Four days after the Rolla games Coach Friecke took a squad of eight men on a junket to Manhattan and Lawrence, Kansas. The two games against the Kansas Aggies on February 2 and 3 resulted in 45 to 13 and 36 to 17 victories for the farmers. Friecke’s cohorts could not cope with the speed and excellent floorwork of the champions. Wearied by hard play, the Piker team moved over to Lawrence, Kansas, and 161 Wayne John ‘Dick Goldy” there lost twice to the Kansas University quintet, February 4 and 5, by the scores of 40 to 1G, and 45 to 13. Coach Friecke then brought his battle-scarred heroes home. On February 22, the team celebrated Washington’s birthday by de¬ feating St. Louis University, score 23 to 21. Up to the last moment the game was a nip and tuck affair, and, in all fairness to St. Louis U., it must be said had not the goddess of good luck favored Washington, the Blue and White would have gained the verdict. The second game of the series was played five days later at Francis Gymnasium. St. Louis, although on an alien court, fought with a ven¬ geance and soon amassed a comfortable lead. Then, under the leadership of Capt. Berry, the Pikers slowly but surely cut down the disadvantage until they had gained a tie a few moments before the final whistle. A foul on a St. Louis University man, then, gave the critical opening. Capt. Berry responded with a free throw that gave a one point margin of vic¬ tory, which symbolized the intercollegiate championship of St. Louis. The score was 23 to 22. The season closed on March 3 and 4, with games against the Kan¬ sas Aggies. These last contests were the best of the season. The Aggies gained both victories, 29 to 20, and 24 to 18, but in each game they knew they had been through a struggle. The fast, clean basketball was markedly in contrast to the Missouri games. And so the season ended, and with it the careers of Capt. Bill Berry and Paul J. Hewitt closed. “Bill” Berry, Captain, was the most consistent player on the team. He was the factor around which all the team play was centered. Al¬ though a guard. Bill was the highest individual point scorer for the Pikers and was the leader at all times on the offense. His guarding did not suffer, however, and the man he was detailed to watch seldom broke free enough to be dangerous. As a tosser of baskets from the foul line, Bill admitted hardly a peer in the Missouri Valley Conference. “Cap” will be sorely missed; he graduates in June. 162 Bon” John Coach “Ed” Paul J. Hewitt, although experiencing his first and last season in basketball, at once proved a mainstay to the other guard position. P. J. was the heart of the defense. His alertness and aggressiveness broke up many an evening rally in the making. P. J. also leaves college in June; his absence next year will leave a big hole for Coach Friecke to fill! Dick Stout, at forward, was second only to Captain “Bill” in offen¬ sive work. Although handicapped by a bad knee, Dick’s speed on the basketball floor was always in evidence. Plis accuracy in shooting added up many a marker for the Pikers. Dick returns next year as Captain of the team. He will be the Coach’s main reliance. Wayne Miller, at forward, played his second season as a Varsity man. Wayne’s experience stood him in good stead and he played a bang-up game throughout the season. Late in the year he was shifted to guard and responded nobly. He could always be relied upon. Wayne returns next year. Urban Busiek developed into an excellent center under the tutelage of Coach Friecke. “Bon” played forward last year, but improved with the change. He was one of the leading spirits of aggressiveness on the team. His left-handed shots at the basket were a source of wonder to the spectators, and terror to the opposing players. “Bon’s” return next winter will be welcomed by the Coach. To John Grossman, John Moll, Alfred Goldman and Henry Miller fell the task of substituting for the five men previously mentioned. Each responded nobly with his full quota of valuable and earnest en¬ deavor when called upon. “Goldie” graduates this year, but the others will be back again next season to help build a winning combination. Coach Friecke deserves a large measure of praise for his good work when lie stepped into Coach Edmunds’ shoes. Next year, with Captain-elect Stout, Wayne, Miller, Busiek, Grossman, Moll and Henrv Miller back as a nucleus, together with the advent of a list of strong eligibles from the Freshman team, Coach Friecke should be able to turn out a contender for the Missouri Valley Conference championship in basketball. 163 17 ' Captain Manager Coaches Catcher .

The keen competition for positions on the Varsity necessi¬ tated a delay in the final choice of the team, and it was not until the season was well advanced that anyone was certain of his position. After several practice games with the scrubs, the team opened the season in major league style by trouncing Concordia Seminary, on Francis Field, by the score of 9-8. The game was hotly contested throughout. The following week the same teams met at Brock Park, where, after a close and exciting game, Washington went down to defeat by the score of 2-0. At the opening of the season it appeared as if we were to have a very formidable schedule, with the two Kansas Aggies’ games booked on our list, but a three-day down¬ pour necessitated the cancelling of the games. This was very disap¬ pointing as the Aggies had already arrived in St. Louis. Rain again interfered with our schedule in regard to the Cape Girardeau Normal games. Two games were booked with that team in as many days, but a heavy rain on the first day made it necessary to play a double-header on the next. Both games went into extra innings, the first one going thirteen innings; Cape Girardeau won both by the score of 10-7. We wound up the season by meeting Concordia Seminary at Sportsman’s Park to determine the city championship, each team hav- 167 ing one victory to its credit. ashington still had the hobby for playing extra inning games, this going eleven. In the sixth inning, Wash¬ ington directed its heavy artillery on pitcher Schlueter and drove six runs across the plate. That should have been enough runs to win any ordinary ball game, but some very ragged play¬ ing on the part of some of the members of the Washington team permitted Concordia first to tie the score, and then to win out in the elev¬ enth, 11-10. With this defeat the Pikers ' hope of retaining the city championship went glim¬ mering. The games scheduled against our ancient rivals, St. Louis U., were not played. The lat¬ ter university could not whip a team together on time to meet us. “Lin” Milford captained the Pikers ' base¬ ball team for the second year in succession. He was stationed at short stop, and played with the same ability that has characterized his work in other departments of athletics. Frank (“Rabbit”) Jones was one of the classiest players who ever made a Pikeway baseball team. At second base he put up a wonderful fielding game. His diminutive size, combined with his faculty for “waiting ’em out,” made him the hardest man on the entire team for enemy moundsmen. “Bon” Busiek proved to be an excellent man at the initial sack. At the plate he was a terror to the opposing pitchers. “Dutch” Meinholtz was a natural-born fielder. He covered acres of ground out in center field, and the might of his good right arm held down many a would-be extra-base hit. When it came to a “pinch,” “Dutch” was the man of the hour. His hits were hard and frequent. “Poge” Lewis alternated behind the bat and on the pitching mound, but it was as a pitcher that he finally found himself. His mound work was a source of chagrin for the opposing batsmen, rvhile his hitting was the cause of worry among many pitchers. “Puff” Martin worked on the pitching mound as the co-partner of “Poge.” At other times he was stationed at first base. “Puff” was an excellent fielder, and his batting was of the hard and timely kind. “Jimmy” Leopold held the managerial reins and was stationed in the right field gar¬ den. An excellent fielder and a worthy bats¬ man was “Jimmy.” “Davy” Jones played almost every posi¬ tion on the team. He wound up the season as catcher, and with his accurate pegging he cut off many a would-be base-stealer. At the bat he brought fame to himself by his smashing, extra-base hits. “Jerry” Meyer, left fielder, played in a more than creditable manner. His never-fail¬ ing “pepper” worked wonders with the team. “Jerry” was “up-an ' -at-’em” all the time. Paul Hewitt, after trying his hand at pitching, was located at third base. Paul de¬ veloped wonderfully well at the far corner — a statement well evidenced by the fact that in the Cape Girardeau games he accepted fifteen chances without the semblance of an error. Elmer E.

The annual Missouri Valley tennis matches were played on May 14 and May 15 in Lincoln, Nebraska, the University of Nebraska acting as host to the visiting men. The meet was characterized by the large entry list, six colleges competing. It was due to the excel¬ lent network of Roland Hoerr and of Paul J. Hewitt that Washington was able to dispose in easy fashion of all competitors. Roland Hoerr proved to be the class of the tournament and met with little opposition in winning his way to the championship. He drew a bye the first round and then disposed of Teachnor (Kansas U.) and Page (Drake) in the second and semi-final rounds respectively. In the finals, Hoerr stacked up against Ellis (Nebraska), who succumbed to Rollie’s smashing game after four fast sets. Hewitt, in the lower half of the bracket, easily defeated Loomis (Missouri), and Newton (Kan¬ sas), but was himself beaten by Ellis (Nebraska), in the third round. Hoerr and Hewitt paired together in the doubles and had an easy time of it. They defeated Bland-Loomis (Missouri) in the first round, and repeated in the second by drubbing Patty-Beach (Ames). In the the keenest and most exciting of the tournament. A dual tournament with Missouri University was also played later in the season. “Rollie” and Paul again showed their mettle and came through with easy victories. Roland Hoerr graduated in June, but Hewitt will represent Wash¬ ington on the court in 1916. With a good partner, Paul should repeat the good work of 1915 and Washington should boast of another Missouri Valley championship in tennis. McKendree College vs. Washington Unversity April 24, 1915.

After two weeks’ hard practice, the annual Inter-Class Meet was held at Francis Field on May 10. The Senior and Sophomore teams tied for first place with thirty-six points each. The Freshmen were third with twenty-two points and the Juniors came last with fourteen. One field record was broken in the Inter-Class Meet. DeMott Modisette, T5, hurled the discus a distance of 107 ft., 9 in., breaking the former record by several feet. After the regular track meet, a special baseball throwing contest was held. Poge Lewis won easily, throwing the ball 52 ft. 6 in. farther than his nearest opponent. Lewis’ throw was 375 ft., which is within thirty feet of the world’s record. A crowd of about five hundred spectators turned out to witness the affair. On the following Saturday, April 17, the Law School team easily won the Inter-Department Meet. Modisette, Pemberton, Baumann, Stout, Hill, and Potthoff represented the Lawyers. They scored a total of fifty-seven points. The Engineers came second with thirty-three points, the College third with fourteen, and the Dents and Medics last with thirteen. The men showed a great improvement both in form and speed over the week before. The Dual Meet with McKendree College followed on April 24th, in which Washington defeated the visitors sixty-eight to forty-nine. Modisette won the greatest number of points for Washington, while Beedle was the high man for McKendree. On the whole, the meet was highly successful. Knox College won the dual meet on the following Saturday by one point. No exceptional records were made, owing to the strong wind that blew across the field during the meet. This meet ended the 1915 track season at Washington. On the whole, everybody was well satis¬ fied with the results. Washington loses some excellent men this year in the persons of Modisette, Baumann, Potthoff, and Iveysor. 176 Sntmlass Basketball, 1915=16 Teams 1916 Sprick, Lef t Forward Goldman, Right Fonvard Crocker.

Hockey was first on the list of activities. So great a number of girls came out for practice that there was more than enough material from which to pick four strong teams. The games between the classes were played with a great deal of enthusiasm. The Sophomore team was awarded the championship after a closely contested game with the Juniors. While the girls were practicing hockey, not a little interest was manifested in the Swimming Club. The Y.W.C.A. pool was rented one afternoon each week, from 4 to G, for the university girls, and season tickets were sold to about fifty girls. The season lasted through the months of September, October and November. The club was resumed when the winter months were over. During the winter months, basketball claimed prior attention. As in the hockey season, a great number of girls came out to practice. Good Freshmen, Sophomore and Junior teams were chosen. But be¬ cause of the inability of the Seniors to get a complete line-up, they had no regular class team. However, in order to complete the schedule for games, which calls for a contest between each of the classes, Miss Grant and Miss Brocksted played with the 1916 team. At the end of the preliminary games the Juniors remained unde¬ feated; the Sophomores won two games and lost one; the Freshmen won one and lost two, and the Seniors lost three. The Juniors then defeated the Sophomores in two decisive games, thus winning the cham¬ pionship. So much enthusiasm was shown this year that a varsity was chosen. It is hoped that this will develop into an established custom and that next year the varsity will play outside teams of their own standing. Indoor baseball followed close upon basketball. The games were contested by the class teams as in hockey and basketball. An indoor meet took place in the Spring just before the close of the gymnasium classes. The Tennis Tournament was an event of the Spring. It was a purely individual affair and the champion had her name engraved on a handsome cup presented by Wm. Brookings. The athletics season closed with a banquet for all members of the Athletic Association. 185 VAR 51 ’ jalao nrT V VAian Mt-Kts. - UhLmtVCL - CAL .

Its work was of particular value during football season, when it made its appearance at every game, and assisted the cheer-leaders in the injection of “pep” into the crowd. An increased membership is expected during next year, and plans are laid which should result in the Band taking the place among Washington student organizations which it should occupy, and to which its work next year will undoubtedly bring it. President Finley, who handled the Band this year, leaves behind him a foundation on which the next administration should be able to build a permanent and successful organization. 201 Established in 1904 0Matfl)in{jton Eniber$iitp Dramatic CIuB Officers President .

E. Thomas’ “Her Husband’s Wife” at the Victoria Theater on the evening of April the twenty-ninth. The audience was large, and appre¬ ciated the ensemble and individual finish of the actors, the artistic setting and the earnestness and intelligence displayed at every step in the production. It is not an easy task to single out any one of the cast for particular praise. Each did excellently. But for sustained effort, and fine realiza¬ tion of the nature of his character of Uncle John, Mr. Amos deserved a large measure of praise. Miss Johann, in the part of Irene Randolph, the wife of Stuart Randolph, was very effective. Mr. Bryan, as Stuart Randolph, the husband, rose to his part with skill and certitude, and his voice was very good. Mr. Urey, as Richard Beldon, the brother of Irene and lover of Miss Ladew, was good. His manner was easy, speech clear, and he showed talent throughout his part. Miss Watson, as Miss Ladew, had a very difficult character to interpret. It fell to her to display quite a different character in the second and third acts from that set forth in the first. The character was exceedingly well carried out by Miss Watson. Miss Lucas was a winsome and attractive maid. Following closely upon the Annual, came the Mellerdramer, featur¬ ing bloodshed, cabbages, and moth-balls. Mathilda Watson and Percy Ramsay were the co-authors of the hair-raising story of love and pas¬ sion, “When a Woman Wills,” which carried the audience through three gory acts. Emma Vogt, the heroine, and Percy Ramsay, the hero, were relentlessly pursued throughout the play by Rachel Metcalfe, the lady villain, and her able first assistant, Sam DeKins. As is usual in such performances, the hero managed to save his loved one just as the final curtain was descending on the head of the dead villain. Julius Oetting, Leta Wright, Mary Brotherton and William Berry supplied the support. “Jack Straw,” a three-act comedy, by Somerset Maugh am, was ably presented November 9 and November 10, as the first monthly play of the new season. Eleven characters carried the action through the many complications of a plot involving a nobleman, disguised as a waiter, in several unusual positions. Hiram Liggett, Wilford Belknap and Joe Green, as monocled English lords, carried themselves with ad- mirable stiffness. Dan Bartlett, in the title role, executed swift changes in both character and costume. Dorothy Kremer, Marjorie Thompson and Rachel Metcalfe played the feminine leads. James Preston, Hubert Swender, Gordon Sommers, Frances Wendl and Ruth Horton were the other members of the cast. Thyrsus undertook a decided innovation when, on the evenings of December 15 and 16, it offered a program made up of two short plays, Barrie’s Lend Me Five Shillings,” and “The Cricket on the Hearth,” an adaptation of Dicken’s story of the same title. The new scheme of presentation was well received. Lend Me Five Shillings,” a farce in one act, was played as an introduction to the second play. Tom Davis and Georgia Lee Berkley, in the leading parts, made the most of the many amusing circumstances of the plot. Ralph Hill, Edward Byrd, Irwin Cozzens, and Ruth Hor¬ ton took the minor roles. The Cricket on the Hearth” proved one of the most pleasing performances on the Thyrsus stage in years. The lighting was carefully studied and the simple costumes and well chosen properties added greatly to the charm of the scenes. Dorothy Jackes, Ruth Horton, Bessie Campbell, John Sharon, Andrew Kurrus, Irwin Cozzens, Gordon Morrison, and Phil Bryan were the members of the cast. The Thyrsus Alumni presented as their second annual play, Feb¬ ruary 7, The Tyranny of ears,” a clever farce-comedv by C. Haddon Chambers. Charity Grace, ’05; Mathilde Watson, T5; William Carson, ’13, and Percy Ramsay, ’15, carried the leads in a decidedly finished manner. . - JT Presented at the Victoria Theatre, April 21 Uncle John .

Thirty-six students made the trip. The party left St. Louis in their private car on Tues¬ day morning, January the fourth, playing to a large and appreciative audience at the Jefferson Theater at DeSoto that evening. The next stop was made at Dexter, where a matinee performance was given to an audience consisting chiefly of students from the High School, where a few selections had been given that morning. A holiday was granted to those who cared to attend the performance—the Clubs played to a full house. That evening the Washingtonians appeared before another crowded house in Charleston, and were afterwards entertained with supper at a cafe. On Thursday a matinee was given to the students at the State Normal School and the High School at Cape Girardeau. The Clubs were entertained with a tea in the afternoon and a dance at the Elks’ Club in the evening. The Elks ' Club house was turned over to the men for their use during their stay at Cape Girardeau. On January 8th the Clubs returned to St. Louis and began prepara¬ tions for the St. Louis concert. On January 12th they appeared before a large audience in East St. Louis, and on the fourteenth they gave their concert at the Victoria Theater. if Hlee ant jflanboltn Club Concert ELL selected, delightfully arranged, and excellently per¬ formed are terms appropriate to the program presented by the combined Glee and Mandolin Clubs on January 14, in the Victoria Theater. The impression of anyone who had attended many concerts of the musical clubs of both East¬ ern and Western universities must have been that this concert, judged from almost any viewpoint, ranked with the best. After a short tour through Missouri, the Clubs had succeeded in giving their numbers a finish that only comes with hard work and repeated performances. The Glee Club possessed a noticeably large number of well trained voices — well trained individually and to work in harmony. The selections, “When Love Lingers” and “If You Want a Kiss,” were skillfully rendered and with feeling. The latter was cleverly presented and the cloying sweetness of them both was effectively counter¬ balanced by “The Soldier ' s Chorus” and Dudley Buck ' s “Good Night,” which was beautifully done and by far the best thing rendered by the Glee Club. The Mandolin Club contributed its share toward keeping the program up to an exceptionally high standard. It rendered Victor Herbert’s melodious “Serenade” with sympathetic expression and brought the right portion of daring and dash into Corbin’s “Santiago.” “The Fearless Four” captivated the audience with their “close harmony” and their “barber shop swipes.” Many a glee club concert has been condemned because the attempts at comedy have proved pathetic. In this concert, however, in nearly every instance where introduced, the comedy “got over.” J. A.

For the first time in the history of McMillan vaudevilles, the show was staged—not in the Thyrsus cubby-hole—but in the “gymmie.” Morris had very kindly erected a stage with a real curtain at the west end of the floor and distributed neat rows of chairs over the remaining floor space for the appreciative audience. Palms and spring blossoms were used in profusion to cover up the bareness of the rude stage. As a curtain-raiser, Delta Gamma gave a take-off on Shakespeare’s greatest play, entitled “Julius Geezer.” The scenes were especially commendable. In one, the various nuisances to college life at Wash¬ ington were cast into a boiling pot by several fierce-looking witches. The next act on the program was a problem play in one act, “The Last Day,” produced by an entire Theta cast. The scene was laid in a country schoolroom—the occasion was the closing exercises. None of the essentials of the country “skule” were lacking. There was the prim schoolmarm, the teacher’s pet done up in fluffy ruffles and a blue bow, the dunce, the bad twins and Topsy. Several original songs and “pomes” were delivered in correct oratorical fashion, and the curtain was rung down to escape the shower of peanuts with which they were greeted. Pi Beta Phi came next with a clever pianologue by Helen Stevens and Winona Wurtenbaecher. The hearty applause occasioned three encores, each performance better than the previous one. “Evening in Topsy-Turvy Land” was the name of the McMillanites’ production. The audience was hardly prepared for the comic sight of seeing ladies walking on their heads, or walking in one direction while facing another or playing a piano with their back to it, facing the au¬ dience at the same time. It was a ridiculously funny act. It needed no words to portray the meaning. Words would not have been heard had they been prepared. The curtain went down with the audience mopping tears and heaving deep sighs. The last act was given by Y.W.C.A., on their favorite tale, “Blue¬ beard.” Soft music made the horror more tragic. The corpses hanging on the wall were most natural and awe-inspiring. Altogether, it was voted by the regular goers that 1915 McMillan vaudeville surpassed all productions of its kind. ALICE M. JOHANN. Cfje B el ta @ amnia Cea I-IE newly-founded Alpha Epsilon Chapter of Delta Gamma gave the first of its annual receptions to the University on Saturday, April 24, 1915, at the home of Miss Emily Dauernheim. Those in the receiving line were Miss Ruth Pritchard. Miss Martha McCaulley, Mrs. Dauernheim, Dr. Francis Bishop, Mrs. F. A. Ha ' ll and Miss Claudia Lide. The decorations in the recep¬ tion room were large bowls of lilacs. Here some of the Freshmen pre¬ sided over the punch. In the dining-room the other Freshmen served the ice, ice cream, cakes, and mints, while the older members entertained the numerous guests. 1 he refreshments and table decorations were carried out in the sorority colors, bronze, pink and blue. BaniJelion Bap 28, 1915, witnessed the third annual celebration of Dandelion Day. The men of the Class of 1918 were to ]abor and vote in competition to decide which of their fair ladies was to be queen of the class. One plant from ■ i the first quadrangle counted one vote. We feared the Freshmen’s chances for honor and labor would be reduced to almost nothing, for the day before Col. Boorstin and his young army made a desperate attempt to destroy the yellow ballots. Yet 11a. m. saw the campus by no means destitute of possible votes. The students in the Schools of Engineering and Architecture vied with those of the College, the battle waged fearfully, the leaders’ scores fluctuated evenly—it seemed as though there must be two queens. Only in the last moments was the contest decided. Miss Frances Wendl won with 3,839 votes over Miss Aphrodite Jannopoulo, who had 3,817. Miss Mildred Brooks and Miss Sylvia Corley also polled quite a few votes. When the struggle was over, Kenneth Larkey, President of the Student Council, placed a wreath of roses upon Miss Wendl’s head, in token of her victory, thus crowning her queen. CDe mi Cra HE Missouri Beta Chapter of Pi Beta Phi gave its annual reception to the University at the home of Miss Mildred Fox, 5250 Westminster place, on Saturday afternoon, May 1st. Pink was the color scheme carried out in flowers and other decorations in the rooms and on the serving tables. Ice cream, cakes, mints, and almonds were served. Those in the receiving line were: Miss McCaulley, Mrs. G. A. Fox, Miss Helen Grose, and Miss Helen Stevens. Cl )t aanibec mrliu££ ROM the moment the first little co-ed slid shrieking down the slippery slide until the last couple had stopped danc¬ ing in the gymnasium in the evening, the Univee Surkuss of 1915 was a large, howling, merrymaking, money¬ changing success. Even the oldest and most reserved Seniors were forced to admit that this year’s surkuss was at least as good as any they had seen, while the un¬ sophisticated, young underclassmen were actually dumfounded by the stupendousness of it all. The action was intents. W hile an Obelisk bandit grasped you by one arm, a peanut vender would extract pennies from your fist, an architect dancing girl would gaze alluringly at you and the barkers would deafen you with the praise of some show. The architect’s operetta was, as usual, the most finished production among the shows. Absolutely no essential for success was lacking in its makeup. While hitherto the little Fatima girls had had to dance to the handicap of a comb band, this year they whirled about accompanied by a band of real, honest-to-goodness architectural musicians. The plot of the play was, of course, distinctly and fittingly Oriental. But a step behind the architects’ show in their entertaining qualities were the shows of the Glee Club and the Engineers. Music and jokes inserted in a regular minstrel performance made up the Glee Club show. A two-reel Keyhole Comedy represented the efforts of the Engineers. Likewise, the good old slide was slid on again this year. For all its age, it seemed to have lost none of its popularity. Lastly, let us speak of the games of chance. At one side was a ‘‘spin the wheel, you can’t lose,” and three-shell gambling hell. On another side a charming young adventuress led you to bet your big, round nickels on the color of cards. On all sides the members of the Lock and Chain Society surrounded you to obtain your votes for the “Queen of the Sur¬ kuss.” In any event, you lost your money. When the officers of the law had finally forced the show to close and the confetti sellers had at last disposed of their remaining packages of the coveted tissue, the crowd adjourned to the gymnasium to witness the crowning of Miss Sylvia Corley as Queen of the Surkuss. The evening was officially ended by a regular Lock and Chain dance. Ber Bummkopf N May 1st, the Deutscher Verein presented at Thyrsus Theater, as its annual play, “Der Dummkopf, by Lud¬ wig Fulda. Bertha Uhlemeyer and Bernhard Uhlen- dorf assumed the leading roles of Frau Schirmer and Justus Haeberlin, and were well supported by a cast including Alfred Finklestein, Fred Uhlendorf, Wilibald ___ and Gerhard Beck, Sylvia Wedel, Julia Krausmck, Her¬ bert Wind, Alma Hermann, Emanuel Hahn, Paul Burg, Alonzo Ivieffer and Leona Shepherd. . , The play was so successful that a second performance was given at Mary Institute on June 11th. 313 iHrJ UUan jHap Bap N spite of the postponement unfavorable weather neces¬ sitated, a crowd of some fifteen hundred people wit¬ nessed the McMillan Day fete given by the Co-eds on the afternoon and evening of the 21st of May. The performance was an improvement on last year’s, due to the careful designing of the costumes and the un¬ usual beauty of the setting. The action of the fairy play transported the audience to the court of a medieval princess, with its customary accompaniment of witches, fairy spells, and a “Prince Charming. The play was the work of Miss Marie Updike. The danc¬ ing was composed and coached by Miss Retter and Miss Vogt. Miss Watson coached the lines. The playlet opens with a celebration of the eighteenth birthday of Princess Eleanor. Interrupting this happy scene, a gypsy hag enters, and pronounces a prophecy of ill omen upon the joyous crowd. Little attention is paid to this and the stately dance of the courtiers is resumed, followed by the sprightly dance of the pixies. Soon a noise is heard outside the c astle gate, and Peterkin, leader of the pixies, announces the arrival of a band of queer-looking people who demand food and shelter. Against the better judgment of Lady Margaret, the Princess bids them welcome. Perdita, leader of this gypsy band, then dances and sings for the court; but at the end of the dance the gypsy hag again appears. Dramatically she warns the Princess of the spell which is laid upon her, under the power of which she will lose her unknown lover if she speaks before midnight. Great alarm spreads through the court, and is only quieted by Lady Margaret, who commands the Mummers to give their play to distract the mind of the Princess from her danger. The Mummers’ play is followed by the dances of the peasants and wood nymphs, and the gay scene is continued until a pilgrim enters singing. He reveals himself to the Princess as her Prince Charming in disguise, just as the chimes strike the midnight hour. The spell is broken, and the Prince and Princess dance, joined by the courtiers. This cul¬ minates in the joyous celebration of the betrothal feast. Drue Smalling, as Princess Eleanor, interpreted her part with de¬ lightful lightness and grace, while the character of Lady Margaret, in contrast, was filled by Senta Retter with imposing majesty. Kathleen Lucy, with boyish earnestness, well assumed the role of Prince Charm¬ ing. The gypsy hag, played by Adeline Rubenstein, was the most dramatic figure in the play. The part of Perdita, leader of the gypsies, was taken by Emma Vogt, and her dance, with its fire and spirit, con¬ trasted sharply to the stately dances of the courtiers. The dance of the sprightly little Peterkins had such a lively swing that it brought hearty applause from the audience. Fannie Cushing directed the Mummers with a naive swagger that was the source of considerable amusement. Only one defect marred the success of the occasion. Enough seats were not provided to accommodate the unusually large audience, and many were forced to find seats on the damp ground. As a result, both Mr. Brown and Doctor Corey contracted severe colds. 315 QeDication of iHctiical J§cl)ool Buittriitgs HE dedication of the new buildings of the Washington University Medical School took place on April 29, and honorary degrees were conferred on some of the prom¬ inent visitors on the following evening. The dedication of the new school was attended by men of prominence in all fields of learning, and while visiting the University, the corporation took the opportunity of granting them degrees. The dedication ceremony took place on the morning of April 29, in the north laboratory building. Mr. Robert S. Brookings, president of the corporation, Dr. Frederick A. Hall, Acting Chancellor of the Uni¬ versity. and Dr. Eugene Opie, Dean of the Medical School, officiated, and Bishop Tuttle offered the invocation. After a brief sketch of the history of the University by Mr. Brookings, the keys to the buildings were presented to Dr. Hall. The main feature of the second day was the granting of honorary degrees by the corporation of Washington University in the evening. Mayor Kiel, Acting Chancellor Hall. Chancellor Houston, and President Brookings led the procession from Ridglev Library to Graham Chapel. As Acting Chanc ellor Hall conferred each degree, he placed upon the honoree the academic hood corresponding to the degree. Yellow velvet for science and purple velvet for laws constituted the trimmings of the hoods, while the lining was of red and green silk, corresponding to the University colors. , .. , , A reception in the halls of the St. Louis School ot bine Arts marked the close of the exercises and the close of two of the most eventful days in the history of Washington University. Cljc iBdta ©amma Cea LPHA EPSILON CHAPTER of Delta Gamma gave its annual reception to the University, on Saturday after¬ noon, November 27, at the home of Miss Marie Maull. Those in the receiving line were Miss McCaulley, Dr. Frances Bishop, Mrs. Maull, Miss Sibyl late, and Miss Hortense Bowles. In the dining-room the girls served the guests with ice cream, cakes, nuts, coffee, and mints, all tinted to match the decorations of the room, which were pink roses and smilax. The tea was followed by an informal dance in the evening. Cl)c i t. 3Loul£ 5E. ©ame j la££ jHmlng ITH the knowledge that the Varsity had beaten Missouri and could beat St. Louis University firmly planted in the minds of students and alumni, it took little coaxing or advertising to draw a large crowd out for a mass meet¬ ing before the St. Louis U. game. Seldom, if ever, have such evidences of spirit been shown at Washington Uni¬ versity, as there were that night. The mass meeting itself was short, but uproarious. The band opened the program with an absolutely new march. This alone was a criterion of success. The speakers were all familiar to the crowd. Doctor Ed¬ munds, Doctor Lund and Mr. Calhoun spoke concerning the morrow’s game. Cliff Taussig and Frank Berryhill explained the program for the evening. But the crowd was in no mood to hear speeches. Action was the order of the night. With the band in the fore, the crowd at length began to surge about the gymnasium and the parade was started. While all this formation had been going on, the cheer-leaders were not idle. Leopold and Blades utilized every available opportunity to call for a “Sizzle Sazzle’’ or a “Steam Roller.’’ Owing to the fact that the St. Louis University students were also having a parade this night, much care had been taken by the authorities in both schools that the parades should not meet. (Whether this was a wise move or not was never proved.) Accordingly, a rather circuitous route was taken to Grand and Olive, making the march rather long, but still not long enough to kill the spirit of the occasion. Arriving at last at their destination, the crowd shook the tall buildings with their cheers; then everyone left for his home to await anxiously the coming conflict. Cl )t $u;£l) all Content S a novelty in the way of class fights, the pushball contest of 1915 fulfilled all expectations. Whereas before, the fight had been a long-drawn-out endurance test with its success depending almost entirely on the efforts of a dozen or more men of each class, this year’s fight gave every man a chance equally, and was rather a short, snappy test of agility and strategy. The Sophomores won the fight, 3-0, by using their massed strength with great effect at opportune moments. Their two flying wedges, while not all-important, often gave the needed impetus toward the Freshman goal. A total lack of order and plan caused the downfall of the Fresh¬ men. Never once did a Freshman attack put the Sophomores on the defensive in their own territory. The first goal was scored by the Sophomores after twelve minutes of hard fighting. After this the Freshmen seemed to take a brace, hold- rr „ ing their own with their opponents until a few minutes before the end of the second quarter, when the Sophomores, by a sudden, strong offen¬ sive, sent the ball rolling over the Freshmen and across the goal line. The Freshmen, undismayed by the score, came back and did their best work in the third quarter; but even then they were unable to cope suc¬ cessfully with the superior strength and strategy of the Sophomores. The last goal was scored by the Class of 1918 ten minutes after play had started in the third quarter. After this, the contest developed into more or less of a free fight, in which neither side gained a decided advantage. The pushball game, while in many ways an improvement over the old tree fight, was not an entire success. Quite as many people were injured as in previous fights. The officials were unable to enforce the rules to any high degree of satisfaction. It was not decidedly interesting to the spectators. Persons in authority were of the opinion at the close of the fight that this would be the last class fight of this sort held at Washington. Cl )t Bonfire IJK HE Annual Bonfire was held on Francis Field on the night of Tanuary 31st, just after the finals. The crowd gath¬ ered at the archway and marched by way of McMillan Hall to Francis Field. The fire-proof wood gathered by Obelisk was too cold to burn, but it was encouraged with several cans of gasoline and finally got “lit up.” Amos could not deliver his sermon until Berry and the rest of the C. E. ' s shot all their fireworks, but when he delivered, he sure—well — if any of the faculty were there they would have felt like “the little man from Egypt.” The crowd was then handed “dogs,” buns, and advice from Tuchshmidt, to go to the volley ball game in the Gym. Cau p£floit Cca g|AU UPSILON entertained at a reception on January 8th ® at the home of Margaret Ewing. The house was decorated with narcissuses and ferns. Coffee was served in the library; ices, cakes, and candies in the dining¬ room from the table, the centerpiece of which was narcissuses and yellow candlesticks. In the receiving line were Mrs. F. A. Hall, Miss M. G. McCaulley, Airs. Walter Kirchner, Airs. A. E. Ewing and Aliss Constance Roach. 7K [ROHOJ 321 ;zz —r--- 21 ftlje jfrcsrtjman leaner HE annual Freshman Dance was given in Francis Gym¬ nasium on the evening of December 21st, by the Class of of 1919. The decorations were carried out in the class colors, white and green. Green lattice-work covered the walls, and streamers of white and green, suspended from the track, formed the ceiling. j§ t. jfatima’s IBap HE Architects staged their St. Fatima’s Day ceremonies at 1 o’clock on Wednesday, January 19th. The Liggett and Myers signs, and Durbar costumes were only surpassed by the costumes commandeered from sister’s wardrobe. Royal Announcer Simpson announced the arrival of the exalted Saint by boldly walking around the “Zone of Quiet” ringing a “milkman’s” bell. He was closely followed by the Royal Cigarette Bearer, and the sleeping Queen with her retinue of Durbar costumes. The Royal Lifter, Umbrella Bearer and Lord High Keeper of the Sacred Bull Moose went unnoticed because they were foolish enough to follow too closely the Life Class Float that held the attention of everyone. Abrams was the fearless little fellow who braved the cold breezes to enact this part. The usual rites were performed by the High Priest in his paste¬ board Parthenon, Her Holiness St. Fatima Hammond, King Crocker and Allah Tuchshmidt who appeared in the turrets above the archway. Ultimo N February 19, 1916, the Deutscher Verein presented at Mary Institute its second annual play, “Ultimo,” by Gus- 11 tav von Moser. The play was well staged—thanks to the efforts of Mr. Hartung. The audience was large and appreciative. Mr. Bente showed remarkable ability in his por¬ trayal of the Merchant, whose calmness and broadmindedness was in great contrast to the other characters. Mr. Wensel was a very irascible professor, indeed, and possessed a realistic “Professorin” in Miss Mitchell. Mr. Ruehl showed wonderful skill in portraying his role of a good-natured but rather quick-tempered Uncle. A charmingly natural girl, both pert and lovable, was the result of Miss Dauernheim’s acting. The buoyant playing of Mr. Hehman, so full of healthy animal spirit, was a decided contrast to the slow, timid, retiring nature of the Doctor, admirably presented by Mr. Wind. The acting of the cast as a whole was good and full of vim. 323 ulfje Cnginfcrjef’ gmoher HE Annual Engineers’ Smoker was held on the evening of February the first, at Commons. It was very success¬ ful and showed that the engineers have one of the “live- wire” organizations of Washington. Mr. Langreck acted as chairman and laid before those present the new Constitution of the Engineering Societies for their approval. Dean Langsdorf acted as master of ceremonies. He called on Messrs. A. O. Schleiffarth, ’14, J. Ragsdale, ’13, and H. D. Jolley, ' 10, for short talks. Refreshments were served while Langreck and Oetting gave a banjo-piano solo; Sirokv and Oetting, a piano duet, the En¬ gineers’ Quartet gave a few selections among which were two original songs, one by Hughes, ’17, and one by Lieber, ’17. QTfjc oiljeta Sea VER six hundred people, students of the University, fac¬ ulty, and friends were greeted on Tuesday, February 22 , by the members of the Alpha Iota Chapter of Kappa Alpha Theta at their annual tea given at the home of Mildred Searcy, 5095 Westminster place. The girls, ac¬ cording to custom, were dressed in colonial costume and wore their hair powdered and in curls. The drawing¬ room, where the receiving line stood, was decorated with baskets of pink Kilarney roses. The library decoration was effectively carried out in myrtle and maroon — the University colors. A mass of red roses and ferns banked the mantelpiece. The table, from which coffee and sandwiches were served, had as a centerpiece, a basket of the roses, surrounded by arti¬ ficial cherry tree stumps. Cakes and ices, carrying out the fraternity colors of black and gold, were served in the dining-room. Here, the table decoration was a basket centerpiece of jonquils and pussy-willows, tied with bows of yellow tulle. Streamers of the tulle extended to the chandelier, which was massed in smilax. American flags were given as favors in honor of George Washington’s birthday. In the receiving line were Mrs. J. J. Searcy, Mrs. P. J. Neff, Mrs. F. A. Hall, Miss Marie Davis, and Miss Mildred Searcy. 325 Clje junior $rom. HE Class of 1917 was indeed favored by the elements, hav¬ ing been blest with pleasant weather on February 23rd. It was the first time in years that the elements graced the Juniors with pleasant Prom, weather — a favor which did not remain unappreciated. A large attendance of stu¬ dent, alumni, and faculty members — some five hundred— was the result. Yet the number of dancers was not too large for comfort. Although outwardly the assembly place was just Francis Gymnasi¬ um, to the guests it became immediately upon their entrance into the building, a bit of Fairyland. A vine-covered passage-way of white lattice extended from the front door to the entrance of the Gymnasium. Here the walls were hidden by a series of lattice-work alcoves. Vines of pink sweet peas were intertwined in the lattice, while beautiful varicolored butterflies poised in the foliage. The large alcove at the west end was occupied by the chaperones. At the east end there were two compart¬ ments, one on either side of the entrance to the Gymnasium. One was given over to punch tables, the other was made into a smoking-room, an institution especially pleasing to the men. The small alcoves along either side of the Gymnasium, fitted up with rugs, proved no less popular. An entirely novel effect was produced by the arched ceiling of white beams hung with smilax and sweet peas. An indirect system of lighting was used so as to produce a soft and pleasing impression. Japanese lan¬ terns behind the arch of each alcove gave additional light. The programs were in black and gold, the class colors. After the ninth dance, ice cream and cake were served by the Obelisk men. Soon the dancing was resumed. It was long past the witching hour when, with sighs of happy contentment, the Promenaders dispersed, feeling that the Junior Prom, of the Class of 1917 was one of the most successful ever given, while on all sides were heard remarks like, “This was indeed the most enjoyable dance I ever attended.” $leiai e£ LEIADES, an honorary athletic club, was established in the spring of 1915, by eight members of the Junior hockey team. The purpose of this new organization is to stimu¬ late the interest in athletics among the women of the University. Seven members are chosen from the out¬ going Junior Class with one from the Sophomore Class, at the ' final hockey game in November. Membership is conferred upon those who have shown enthusiastic interest in athletics. Club meetings are held in the form of cross-country hikes at regular intervals during the spring and fall terms. A. M. J. 327 (FI )t (Engineer ’ pageant HE Third Annual Engineers’ Pageant was held again this year on the 1st of April. It took the form of modern warfare with all its machines of destruction. The Senior Civil Engineers began to erect their stu¬ pendous portable suspension bridge at noon. They were ably assisted by the Sophomore Civils in the location work with a ten-foot transit, human range rods, and a very complete volume of notes. The attention of the spectators was attracted toward Cupples II by the blare of a bugle that announced the starting of the parade. The pro¬ cession was led by the Junior Civils, dragging a pontoon bridge. They were closely followed by the Overall Army; the armored Krupp auto¬ mobile constructed by the Sophomore M.E.’s, the Chem. E.’s gas bomb “auto,” the wireless plant of the Junior E. E.’s, the commissariat manned by the Junior M. E. chefs, and a land submarine, the U-19, propelled by the Freshmen engineers who were safe inside its steel shell. When the parade was nearly finished the Senior Civils had finished their bridge, which consisted of two 20-foot towers supporting steel cables, that extended clear across the quadrangle. To the cables were hung ropes which supported the floor panels. The bridge was then tested by the rest of the C. E.’s, who marched across in true military style and then proceeded to the battlefield in front of Cupples II. Here war was waged to its most destructive extent with machine guns, gas bombs, aeroplanes, armored “autos” and submarines. After all the participants had been killed three or four times the scene was shifted to the Library steps, where the rites were performed in honor of the Sacred Beaver. Emmanuel Werner, ' 16, and Burton Langreck, T6, conducted the services. Charles Lieber, ’17, took the part of Casey Jones very well; he denounced the faculty individually as each one appeared before him in the form of a Senior. The very successful entertainment was brought to a close by sentencing the faculty to the firing-squad. (Ffje (Engineer Banquet HE Engineers’ Annual Banquet was held at the Majestic Hotel on the evening of April 1st. Eighty engineers were present, including faculty, alumni, and students. Dean Langsdorf was toastmaster, introducing as guests of the evening Messrs. J. W. Woermann, ’90, J. E. Con- zelman, ’98, and Dr. L. F. Nickell. Between toasts the engineers were entertained with piano solos by Knoerle and Bode; selections by the Engineers’ Quartet, and Summersby, who made the “hit” of the evening with his original songs. He was accom¬ panied by Siroky. 329 ullje SMasfjhtgton ©talon FTER one year’s existence the Washington Union has proven its value to the University. In one year it has attained a size and a strength such as will guarantee its permanence as an organization. The appreciation of its value is shown by its growth to a membership of one thousand from April, 1915, to April, 1916. _ The Union was founded with the object of “the cul¬ tivation of social fellowship among the students, faculty and former students of all departments of Washington University, and the promotion of the best interests of the University.” It may be well to mention here a few instances in which it has already succeeded in fulfilling its purpose. By furnishing rooms in the Gymnasium and keeping them open to the student body, it has fostered a more intimate relationship between the students themselves; by having the rooms open one night each week for the use of the alumni, it has brought the former students into clo ser touch with the University; and by giving frequent entertainments it has brought together the three great bodies of a uni¬ versity, the students, the alumni, and the faculty, for the furtherance of a “greater Washington.” The Union has, even in this brief time, shown its usefulness to many of the student organizations. It has always been ready to advance money to those organizations that have needed it. It has made possible many undertakings, such as the Glee and Mandolin Club tour last January. The greatest movement that has yet been started by the Union, however, is the acquirement of a swimming pool. The readiness with which the idea of a swimming pool was adopted shows how truly the Union respects the ideas of Washingtonians, and the speed with which the idea was furthered shows the ability of the Union as an executive body. Ten thousand dollars have been promised by the Union towards the construction of a pool; therefore, the swimming pool as a reality is due chiefly to the Union. Composed as it is of students, alumni, and faculty, it bids fair to continue to accomplish all that energy and interest can accomplish in creating a “greater Washington.” £lumm j oteg R. WALCOTT DENISON, T4, was decorated with the Austrian Red Cross on account of his recent medical work in Vienna. Dr. Denison is now in the employ of the German Government and will care for the German cap¬ tives in Russia. Dr. Eliot Dickson, To, sailed from New York, De¬ cember 20, 1915, to fill an important position as one of four surgeons in a large clearing hospital in Paris. After a thorough discussion of the different aspects of the question of the formation of a general alumni body of Washington University, 331 BR9QBH the presidents of the alumni organizations of the various departments decided that such a plan would be detrimental to the special interests of the individual groups. It was suggested that such a co-operation could be formed by a united affiliation with the Union. Lewis A Maverick, ' 13, was a member of the Henry Ford Peace Expedition. Preston Lockwood, ' 12, who holds the Missouri-Rhodes Scholar¬ ship at Oxford, was made Inspector-Adjutant of the field ambulance corps in France. The New York Alumni Association of Washington University held their annual dinner at the Manhattan Hotel on Saturday, February 26, 1916, with Mr. Perkins presiding. Judge James D. Barnett, ’79, of the Eleventh Judicial Court, died Friday, March 10, 1916, in St. John’s Hospital. Judge Barnett was born near Wellsville, Mo., in 1858 and graduated from the law department of Washington University in 1879. engagements T would scarcely be fair to the participants to close up the Hatchet Echoes without a word on the i mportant course in “Engagements” which has had such an unusually large membership this 1915-16 term.

The History A prof, ushered himself into a room filled with gas and smoke. He gritted his teeth, raised the window and turning to his class, said: “Fellow chemical sufferers, you are ex¬ cused for to-day. There shall be a conflict here that you must not witness, so farewell.” They did, by leaving. McMaster entered and Usher saw his sou ' phate—they knew that trouble was up. “What’s the excuse for this?” said the Historian. “Damn v’er curious oxide,” replied the Chemist, “I’ll teach you not to interrogate me,” and he hurled a tube of concentrated H2S04 which struck his antagonist near the Punic War. The Historian had not come unprepared. He poured a little K Br on the H2S04 and under the protection of the resulting gas cloud, Guizots and Creasys were sent thick and fast against the hurler of the awful tube. The Chemical man now grew more agitated than ever. Beakers, bunsen-burneTs, flasks and atomic weights filled the air. The Compiler of the Deeds of Man was literally and actually knocked down. The attack reminded him of the Charge of the Light Brigade, the Revolution, of how Mrs. Caesar used to greet Julius when he got home late at night and of how Cleopatra felt when Antony wouldn’t eat the biscuit she cooked. But, thanks to keen insight, the Historian saw a chance for his restoration. With great effort, he rose to his knees, grasped his “Irreducible Min ' mum” and flung it at the Chemist with such deadly accuracy, that he left only one man in the fight-all was quiet. Henry and Nickell came rushing into the room. Side by side they sighed. Tears came to their eves. “Speak man,” said Nickell; “talk.” “There’s only one alternative,” said Henry, “if they don’t come to—that’s Barium.” Printing Invitations Announcements Programs Booklets Stationery WALTER H.
