Though the smoke aris- ing from the ashes of the great conflict has yet not entii-ely cleared away, though reconstruction and prosperity have scarce- ly begun to replace destruction and ruin, it is possible now to discern through the wreckage the beginning of new and firmer structures, institutions and traditions. It is the foundation of a new and greater age. And looking into the future it is not diificult to see a new and .mratcr Washington ami L ' c. — ffleed from en- cumln-ances which have bound her in the past, standing iirm on tlie solid and unshaken founda- tions of a past witli priceless traditions, impelled Page Forty ever forwanl liy tlie jirogressive inoveMieiit of world oiK-e mure at pi ' aee. Five years, perhaps ten, pass by. We lonk fin our Alma Mater now and what do we see ? A Washington and Lee University, the peer of Southern colleges, a school with traditions, oppor- tunities and advantages unique. — a leader in its chosen field. In the realm of scholastic life we find the edu- cational standards upheld by even stricter reipure- ments, and administered by a faculty, much en- larged, and even more broad-minded and sym])a- thetic than of old. The Law School, its capacities taxed to the limit, provides a full three-year course, recognized as the best throughout the South. But another phase of academic work has taken a new lease on life. Washington and Lee has awakened to her greatest opportunity, as the most typical Southern institution, unhampered by state or sect. The School of Commerce has been quad- rupled in size; new professors have been added, the course greatly enlarged, and young men flock to Lexington to ' take advantage of the unusual oppor- tunities afforded in this comjiaratively new and growing branch of the modern practical education. A ' ashington and Lee has seen its chance and liter- ally cornered the market. ' Turning away from the strictly sclxilastic to the other phases of life on the Washington and Lee campus we find the same old spirit, though some- what differently applied. Faculty control over stu- dent activities is limited and fair. Rules affecting the ultra-scholastic life of the student body are carefuUv considered liy joint committees of the facultv and the more experienced students. Stu- dent self-government is ext ended and interest in the student body politic is increased. In this way young America has an opportunity to study on ' a small scale the duties that are later to de- volve upon it in the larger world ahead. The assimilation of the new men is givdi care- ful attention, and rules for tlieir conduct and guid- ance are outlined by a committte elected from the whole student body. Freshmen who violate these rules are tautrht, in various wav that tliey can un- Page Forty-oni derstand, the iioces.sarv qualifications and attributes of a Washington and Lee man. In order to do away witli the old inequitable system of fraternity ' rushing it has been provided that no man may be bid by a Greek letter organization until his Sopho- more year, — and pan-hellenie rules are strictly en- forced. The King-tum Phi is flourishing of course ; so is the Calyx. The Southern Collegian has taken a new lease on life, and appears regularly, aided along literary lines by substantial prizes which help to draw out the latent talent of a naturally gifted student body. The honor system, naturally enough, is still the most sacred thing on the Wash- ington and Lee campus, fostered by the true demo- cratic spirit which has always been found at Wash- ington and Lee. Turning to athletics we find more developments. Of course the one-year rule is in full operation and has helped to place Washington and Lee athletics above the shadow of reproach. B ' Ut the Generals are making a name throughout the intercollegiate world, and many a less fortunate institution has tried to imbue in its supporters something of the famous Washington and Lee spirit. ' ' But not in- tercollegiate athletics only, — for all forms of intra- mural sport are fostered and developed ; even sui- cide ' ' has been refined and made the recreation of many, while compulsory physical training keeps the whole student body in condition. The physical appearance of the Fniversity has been not a little changed. Great care is given to the upkeep of the campus and property. Among the new buildings recently erected on the campus is the Student Activities Building where social gatherings take place, and where the enlarged Y. M. C. A. has its home. Of course the dances are held in the Doremus Gymnasium, and the clientele of Washington and Lee is greatly en- larged by the support of the fairest of the South who attend the social functions of the student body. . classic institution, the annual fancy dress ball has become almost as well known as the mardi gras of Xew Orleans. Alumni cooperation has helped to put the I ' ni- versitv on a sound financial basis, and alumni re- Page Forty tiiio unions have beoonie a regular [lart of eTcrv Finals, each bigger ami more ])oi ular than the last. So with an enlarged and ever more loval student liodv, a growing alumni organization eontinu.-iliy wni-l iug for the betterment of Alma Mater, the ■•pci-sonni ' l of Washington and Lee ' s adherents is ;ill that could be desired. So, looking througii tiie mist in the dawn of a new day, we see, and not in the far distant future, the new and greater Washington and Lee. — yet withal the same saered traditions, the same unique spirit, the same undying loyalty, the same demo- cratic opportunities that have characterized our University from time immemorial. It is not a fanciful picture, either, for tl ' .c corner stone of every air castle has been already laid on firTn foundations. And after all, can one look into the new future with any less feeling -of confidence for a Washington and I ee, — with such priceless tradi- tions as a foundation, with twentieth century raw material on which to build, and with progressive leaders to guide its destiny? Climbing up to meet the l)lue. stands our tnipliieil school. Honor is its lieritii e. chivalry its rule. We are bought l v nobleness, lirothers let us lie.

Loyalty to country in its fight for world freedom called many of them away for a time, but scarcely had the belching cannon ceased to roar when they came back, — came back to the quiet village of Lexington, isolated by its lofty barrieis, the Blue Kidge and the Alleghanies; came hack to a campus so democratic, congenial, and free that its atmosphere can make only gentlemen and scholars; came back from the horrors of war and the duties of war service to their dear old Washington and Lee. with a loftier ambition and a sterner purpose instilled into their beings. And thus it was in the Law School. At the close of last session, the Class of ' 19, in spite of all obstacles and adverse circumstances, promised to compai-e quite favor- ably with the class of ' 18 in size. As for quality, well, there never has been and there never will be a class comparable with it. ( And we don ' t talk about nobody, — but ourselves.) At the opening of the present session, however, things didn ' t appear so bright. During the Eeign of Terror (8. A. T. C.) the Law School was forced to suspend operations, not iiecause of any waning interest on the part of the students in the study of law, nor because kitchen police, trench digging, and other petty pastimes suddenly became alluring, but simply because, for the time being, the men had only one aim, — the winning of the war ; they chose rightly, and in the path of duty and patriotism, to concentrate on that one aim with all their might, and to sacrifice everything else. But not even so terrible a thing as a bloody Reign of Terror, ruling supreme on the campus for three long months, could cool the burning, insatiable appetite of the Class of 1919 for further legal meat, — an appetite which had alreadv been too well cultivated and stimulated by the precepts of Boss and Uncle Joe and Judge ever to be satisfied. So when the law school reopened January 3 there were about ten applicants for degrees. In a short time that number increased to fourteen. Though we have labored under adverse circumstances, the future of the law school looks brighter than at any other time in its history. An era of expansion and prosperity is beginning. It is perhaps safe to predict that next year the three- vear residence requirement will go into effect, that there will be several additions to the law faculty, and that the requirements for degrees will be increased materially. We wish we might share this prosperity directly, but we hope to be on the out- side looking in, telling our friends of the opportunity they will miss if they fail to go to AVashington and Lee. We have applied for degrees. Only by undaunted and siistained pei ' severence will we get thon, and if. in June, Mr. Long says the time for our reward has come, we will be thankful. Historian-.

As time glided by. the flower of youth blossomed into man- hood and the stalwart son of the Old Dominion State was found I ' ainfully lalxiring in the Danville High School, and waiting «ith much expectation and anticipation for the time to come when he could enter the Law School of Wash- ington and Lee. He entered Washington and Lee in .Januar.v. li 17: in .June he will experience a full realisation of his boyhood vision by holding his LL.B. degree. Mr. Benton is a member of the irginia Bar. hav- ing passed the examination whi le an infant, and due to this fact he is barred from practicing his profes- sion until he has reached his majority.

It is an insiiiration to hear the Senator speak of his na- tive land : he dips into the future as far as human eye can see and he has solved all of the mysteries that will confront the legal mind of the nation for the ages to come. Having labored for the good of others so long, Billie decided to let the old boat laden with the dreams of his childhood float out of the harbor and into the deep : so in September. 1917, he set sail for Washington and Lee, and here he has proved him- c f to lie an untiring and efficient student of the law.

Never Ijefore in tlie history of Tucker Hall has a class entered its sacred walls under such unsettled conditions and precari- ous circumstances. Xaturally, when we entered for the first time in the fall of 1917 our class was few in numbers. Yet we do not think ourselves boastful when we look back over our record and say we have accomplished much. Our activities have not been con- fined to the canjpus at all, for since our first arrival here, every man in the class has answered the call to duty in one way or another. How we have perfoniied this duty, in the Service, we cannot say here (modesty alone preventing an extended . eulogy). But we did our best and are satisfied to let it go at that. And now in 1919 a few of us have returned to Lexington, after doing our bit. and have taken up the broken threads where we left off ' . It is with no slight degree of pleasure that we again stroll into Boss ' s nine o ' clocks — or listen to Mr. Long ' s ex- planations of what John Hancock ' s johnhancock on the constitution really means, or h.ear the Juilgc elaborate upon the opinions he handed down fi-oni the Kentiickv Bench. We realize that we still have much to do before we can attain the coveted LIj. B., but we are confident that when graduation day finally rolls around in 1920 we wi ' .l have done credit to Tucker Hall and to the traditions of the Campus so rich in histoiie interest.

The indications arc that the large Junior Class of this yeai- will break all records of previous classes. The class has already learned to appreciate the ai)ility of our dean, Mr. Ijong, and we rather look forward to his discussions of domestic relations, whidi are made especially interesting by bits of humor which Joe puts into the lectures. Many of us have not had the opportunity to Imow Mr. Moreland a,s yet, hut Who is he among lis who has not heard of that man ' s reputation? Judge Quarles has one of our main tickets in the first term, and it has been rather difficult for some of us to absorb that intricate subject, contracts. However, all of the class realizes the importance of this ticket and have put boundless energy thereupon. As for the future we nnist let that take care of itself: but liere is liopin,u ' . from each and every one of us to the others, that the future will be jovous and bea itiful. We are now full of the joys that make us happy and have lew of tbc sorrows wbich always conie to take away the remaining joys from iis. For the years to come here is to the Junior Cla. s that entered in January IKlii. Mav they have r, most pleasant sojourn at school and a brilliant future before them when they leave to take up their task in the world. HlSTOlUAX. Page Sixly-one (dlaBB I0U E. P. ALDEIiSOX Elmeu y.

That was the only backward thing they ever did, however, and since that time the University has been trying hard to keep up with them. Dr. Smith saw to it that the gym was hurried through for our use. Dr. Pollard started special gym classes so that our energy wouldn ' t assert itself in revolting against the sophomores. But even with all these things we just had to do something dif- ferent so started the now time-honored custom of a night shirt parade and ban- quet to celebrate our becoming dignified enough to wear regular hats. In every phase of the University life we have contributed leaders of whom the wiiole school has been envious. It athletics it was Barrett, Cromwell, Bethel, Henke, Peale, Powell, Patterson and a host of others. In society it has been Witt and Fain in particular. In public speaking there are Wilson and Bate, and so it goes in all the other departments. But it is in the nation ' s service that the class of 1919 has done its best work. Immediately after the I ' nited States declared war our numbers began to gi ' ow slim and those who noticed the number of lieutenants who returned after the holidays will rememoer what a large percentage of them were seniors. Now let us glance into the future a minute. Dr. Smith is liegging the classes of 1926 and ' 27 not to let the high standard set by the class of 1919 be lowered; the Eing-tum Phi is publishing the great achievements in business, law, medicine, poli- tics, the ministry, science and other things that the class of 1919 is putting on record; Miss Annie is lamenting the days when Laddie was so popular that he was given a special celebration on St. Patrick ' s day. Dr. Pollard, who has come back, is telling his hygiene and gym classes how splendid the cooperation between him and his first class was ; and quoting words of one of our members that memorable night on the steps of the First National Bank, the class of 1919 has proved beyond a doubt that the old cream is bound to rise.

He has done excellent work in athletics, work- inj; on track and cross-country teams and leading the cheering.

Virginia AXP A typical home product, John was born in tlie vi- cinity of the Natural Bridge — that awe-insiiiring gift of nature, and he. too, we may well believe, will inspire his fellow men. After graduation at Bu- chanan High, he matricu- lated at Yashington and I ee in 1915. Within these historic walls he has si)ent a laborious and fruitftil four years. Yet there was some adventure interven- ing. f(H- in May 191S he answere l the call of the Flag and in the following September received his commission. Lt. Johnston was then stationed at lOmory and Henry in the S. A. T. C. until his dis- charge a few weeks after the siginng of the armis- tice. Immediately afterwards John returned to college to resume an l comjilete his course. Thus concludes the college career of a student, soldier, and friend. We predict another rare ad- venture in the near future, this time in the realm of niiitriniony. With him goes a hearty desire that all of his adventures may be successful. 1 l.

For two years he devoted himself to the pursuit of learning, win- ning the Scholarship in Economics for 1916- ' 17. His plans, liowever, were inter- rupted by the war. and he enlisted In the regular army in June, 1917. Before the show was over, he persuaded the authorities that he knew enough to be commissioned. He was discharged in December and returned to W. and L. in time to complete his work for a degree. A self-reliant, independent man, Wales has a quiet quizzical humor, a preternaturally sedate air, cov- ering a keen sense of the ludicrous, an even tem- pered imperturbility. and a tine sensitiveness to honor and integrity. Let it b said to his credit that one Sunday afternoon he won a liox of candy by rolling a certain baby from its home to tlie Y. and all the way with the break of the car- riage pressing hard against the wheel.

Vhile our class is small, the reasons for the decrease in numbers are many. It is universally acknowledged by all that the men in the science department are the hardest worked of any in the University. Is it any wonder then, that the majority of our colleagues are lost in the intricate passages of the halls of Engineers, Physics, and Chemistry? Then too, the call to arms caused many to lay aside the transit and the chemical balance. In our present class we have representatives from every branch of the service — land, sea, and air. Due to the intensive courses, we were usually found buried in the west wing of the Main Building, from which the evidence of our labors issued to the olfactory nerves of every visitor, even offering for us a haven from the tyranny of the S.

We are not satisfied with these beauties; They but touch a deep chord in the soul ; And its sound grows more strong till it bursts into song. Where the years of Eternity roll. F. Flournoy.

Out of the hundred and twenty-five Freshmen who entered Lexington for the first time in September, 1916, but forty-five now re- main to uphold the honor of the present Junior class. The rest are, almost without exception, in the military service of the United States. Ours was the first class which gave the President of the University the fear that his cream was turning sour, but the real explanation was that as a whole the fluid was unusually rich. Throughout our careers as Freshmen we aimed to set a higher standard for the Generals in scholarship, athletics, and campus spirit, and when the United States went to war in April, the class of nineteen hundred and twenty was as one man in taking advantage of the military training offered by the college authorities under the direction of the V. M. I. first classmen. Back on the campus again eighteen months ago, we appeared as Sophomores, determined to instill into the newcomers at Washington ancl Lee the same old W. and L. spirit that we had received the year before. Although we were not at all times able to do this to the satisfaction of the sometimes over-anxious University authorities, reference to the annals of the present Sophomore class will suffice to prove that 1921 consider themselves well brought up in the way they should go. And although the martial call drew steadily on our number to aid the hosts of democracy, those who were left saw to it that the standard of the class was not lowered. And now, although reduced in number, the glories of the Junior class are not past. First, of course, we count the service of our fellow-students still wearing the khaki, and those who have just returned with the object of their exertions ac- complished. But in the present life and control of the campus, the Juniors are plaving no small part. Four of the members of the Varsity basketball team were members of the class of nineteen and twenty; on publications. Juniors are more in evidence than usual : and in the athletic council and student body offices. Juniors have their f ull share. So for the future we may say that the outlook is bright. A real Washington and Lee class, with even more tlian our share of the traditions, honors, and re- ' sponsibilities of Washington and Lee men, we look forward to the day when as our President hands us the tangible rewards of four years of effort, he will deem him- self ]wculiarlv fortunate to honor the class of nineteen hundred and twenty.

Somehow its members found their way to Xewmomb Hall whei ' e they became bona fide students of Washington and Lee. Since tliat momentous day. events liave come thick and fast on the campus and out in tlie V(n-ld. and ever have 1!)21 men been in the whirl of thinas. As Freshmen we made ourselves felt on the campus. With so many of the older men gone into the service of the nation, the future of many college activ- ities depended on us. The football team was strengthened with Raines and Fox while the second team was practically all Freshmen. We had our stars on the in- tellectual gridiron also to say nothing of the pool table. However the greatest serv- ice we rendered tlie Tniversity was the whole-hearted way in wh.ich the class as a body supported all campus activities. The Sophomore class especially appreciated our attainments and the spirited and enthusiastic parties they gave for us are a pleasure to look back on, even if they were rather dreaded at the time. The fact that onr vigilance committee this year is so just and orderly is due in a large degree to the example set us by the class of 1920. This year we did more than our share to keep alive the customs and traditions of Washington and Lee through the long three months of the S. A. T. C. s existence and in spite of our numerous other campus activities we are well along in the task of assimilating the unappreciative Freshmen. We are represented in athletics, in scholarsliip. in debating, in social affairs, and in college life, as well, we dare say, as any class which has gone before or will come after and have become, according to the ambition voiced bv last year ' s historian, trtie Washington and Lee men. We have been hard hit liy the war and to a small degree by the automatic. Our numbers are now only seventy as contrasted with one hundred and forty at the be- ginning of our career, but we rallied together at the o]3ening of college in 1919 with all the old pep ' and the University knows and will know for some time that the class of 1921 is alive and active.

Historian Page ' inely-five A iiiBfliniiiiiiE OIlaBB l tBt org T does not seem upon first thought, tliat it should be a difficult task to write interestingly a few lines concerning the Class of 1922 of Washington and Ijee, when one remembers the countless experiences — some pleasant and some otherwise — of the fall term of 1918. But after more careful consideration, it is evident that the task is bv no means an easy one, for the conditions last fall were nothing like those that usually prevail : in fact, it was impossible for the Freshman Class to organize during the entire first term. AYe all knew that conditions at Washington and Lee would not be the same as in former years. Bulletins had informed us that a unit of Students ' Army Train- ing Corps had been established at the University and during the approaching session it was to be a military-intellectual army training camp, under direct control of the War Department. We were, therefore, prepared to undergo intensive military train- ing, yet looked forward with much pleasure to the glorious times, which according to the reports of so many old students, we were sure to receive. The Freshman Class remembers with a great deal of ])ride the prominent and v ' ell deserved positions held by many of its memliers in military as well as college activities. At one time the top-sergeants of all three companies were Freshmen, and there were many members of the Class of 1922 acting as line-sergeants and cor- porals. And while we are proud of our classmates for attaining such positions, we rejoice even more in the fact that their actions did not provoke criticism from the old W. and L. men who were not accustomed to receiving orders from Fteshmen. A large majority of the men on the football team were Freshmen, and their skill was recognized by every one. It would not be fair to confine tlie history of the Class of ' 22 to the experiences of its members in the S. A. T. C, for there were some forty of our classmates not living in barracks, who were still enjoying to some extent the old college life. The experiences — and many of them too — that this body of Freshmen had with the Vigilance Committee, are known to their classmates, who realize what a painful hardship it must have been to be forced to satisfy the efifective desires of this well loiown. Committee. And now the storm having subsided, the Class of 1922 sails steadily onward. We are confident that the future will reward our labors, and that the time is not far distant when we will be referred to as the class which typifies the high ideals of our Alma Mater.

U. • • J:,JL, __ _J ■ ■ ■ - ,,_JSJI (El)p lattaltnn Sli iitpm ASHIXGTOX and Lee University made its formal opening on the 25th of September. More tlian 500 students were soon registered and of these 407 signed up ' for the S. A. T. C. More than three liundred of these students were new men, but not Freshmen, since in ' Tncle Sam ' s army of students there was to be no class distinction. From the 25th of Septem- ber to tlie 1st of October the faculty was very busy matriculating and ar- ranging the new students while the pliysical examinations were being rushed as quickly as possible by Drs, Davis and Glasgow of Lexington, The S .A, T, ( ' , students were divided into three classes according to their re- spective ages. All former classes were done away with — along with practically all of the old student organizations so cherished among the traditions of Washington and Lee. Students twenty years old were quartered on the main floor of the gym- nasium and constituted the rudiments of the future Co. A. Those nineteen years of age were placed in Lees dormitory and made up what was later Co. B., while •those. eighteen years old were quartered at Castle Hill and constituted the personnel of men soon to be made into Co, C. The Co, C. men later picked up their beds and walked over to the gymnasium, where they made their abode for the rest of the time. As soOn as possible the basement of the gymnasium was fitted up into a kitchen and mess hall. It was here that 450 men were fed, on the cafeteria plan, ' in ten minutes. At twelve o ' clock, on the first of October, the Fnited States Government formally took over AVasliington and Lee Lniver-iitv, Every man took the oath of. allesiance Pai)e One Hundred to the V. S. and all WlT inipresstMl with the seriousness of ihe hi k ' atVair. Ahout this time the work was seriously interfereil with by an epidemic of in- fluenza whieh was tlien scouring the country and did not J ' ail to hit secluded Lexing- ton. As there had not been any army surgeon appointed, the commanding officer of the S. A. T. C. authorized President Smith to take charge of the situation. Drs. Davis and Glasgow met this new call for work with their characteristic energy and devotion. The Lexington Red Cross ladies, under the leadership of Mrs. Merrill Mills, responded to the call for help promptly and did no end of work among the numerous stricken. Soon the Jackson Jlemorial Hospital, the home of Miss Annie White, and the East Dormitory were all tilled to the limit with jiatients and the rush was on. Meanwhile Dr. Davis, persisting in his unselfish labors long after he himself was stricken, contracted violent pneumonia and died on the sixth of October. His work was as truly heroic as that of any soldier who made the supreme sacri- fice on the shell-k)rn fields of Pica rdy. On the death of Dr. Davis, Dr. H. R. Mor- rison of Rockbridge Baths was called to the assistance of Dr. Glasgow and proved an energetic worker. The Student Army Training Corps men themselves helped wonderfully as hospital orderlies, who were detailed in four-hour sliifts day and night to each hospital. Owing to the careful management of the situation by Presi- dent Smith, the untiring efforts of the physicians, the courageous devotion of the Red Cross ladies and the coolness and energy of the students, the situation was handled successfullv. Of more tliaii a hundred and fifty eases of tile tlu only three rLitl Page One Hundred-one ■ilfllllllilllffi ! cases resulted fatally, and the whole student liodv laments the untiuu4y death of George Gilbert Child of Charleston, W. Va., Donald Anderson Spotts of Dublin, Va., and Marshall McClure Callison of Greenville, Va., whom all their friends and associates knew so well as perfect gentlemen. During the siege of the liu the military work continued, but its progress was necessarily retarded. As time progressed, however, so did the work of the Students ' Army Training Corps. After quite a while a rumor started around that uniforms were to be is- sued. Soon, however, the members of the battalion found themselves disappointed because of the sad fact that the authorities evidently had the wrong conception of the size of the Washington and Lee men, liecause the giant-like uniforms could scarcely be made to stay put, when worn by the small end of the companies. Any- way they were uniforms. That was enough. Eeal work had then begun, calisthenics and close order drill with bayonet work to vary the monotony constituted the main military program. About this time there came a call from Washington for five men qualified for coast artillery officers ' training camp. The aspirants for the job were many and the lucky five were J. M. Demick, D. C. Story, H. M. Shirey, D. C. Eyan, and W. M. Hughes. A second call for men came November tenth and at this time five more men were sent to Fort Monroe. They were T. E. Nelson, W. F. Barron, G. D. Felix, W. M. Everett, E. K. Nelson. Two days later another bunch of men were sent to the C. 0. T. S. at Camp Lee. These were D. D. Johnson, L. W. Nock, E. F. Garber, J. J. O ' Neill, W. E. Hudson, J. D. King, H. B. Burt, A. K. McClung, E. H. McCaleb, and D. P. Walton. ' Twas about this time that the bottom dropped out of things, the causing factor being the cessation of hostilities. Immediately there was a reaction against all forms of military work and it was a trying situation for a group of young officers to handle. Some were not experienced enough to do it and consequently quite a bit of friction began to come into play. However, due to the wise leadership of our President and his complete cooperation with the Commandant, Captain Harper, the difficulties were soon settled. After the war was over the most desired thing was discharge. After much de- lay and hesitation the longed-for papers came as a joyful surprise the sixteenth of December. The whole unit lost little time in going home. Whether or not the S. A. T. C. was a success as an experimental project remains a topic for discussion. It is a conceded fact, however, that the S. A. T. C. at Wash- ington and Lee was one of the best in the whole South Atlantic division. It was so rated bv the authorities that knew — next to the top. Page One Hundred-tivo Cai ' I. Jamk.s C.

For our barracks we had our masuiticent .i;ymnasiuni. Pershin.i: could not have beeu better quartered. We were always cheerful, hajipy. and there was never a complaint, nor did there ever arise the necessity for propitiating insubordinate elements in our liarracks. We loved our officers — I.leuts. Fitzpatrick and (ioldfarb. They were qualified for the highest pitch of military skill, aud still they had iu reserve an inexhaustible margin. It is due to their exceptional abilities and our desire to cooperate and to learn, that Co. A became the best. The relation between officers and men, and our precipitate rise in military discipliue could again be attriliuted to the fact that Co. A was a symphonic exitression of all that was harmonious in the military life. Our further usefulness to Uncle Sam as a military unit was cut short by the signing of the armistice. We had served him faithfully and well, we did honor to our Alma Mater ; aud together with the aid of the other companies we made the S. A. T. C. and W. and Ij. a remarkable success.

These soldiers were by times, in the ]angua.s;e of uiuslo. either B flat, B sharp or B natural. And from this sample of discord and con- cord it can be noticed that all tliree existed at all times. This illustrious com])any of mournful knocliers was originated around noon of October 1st and the name tliat they have earned will be one of the glorious memories that will forever roll through the annals of V. and L. as the height of military training In its im- mature development. After that, they started to get up somewhat earlier than was a usual custom, and so much so in fact that this famous convocation was back scrambling tor water while the other companies were having a delightful tete-a-tete in front of tlie gymnasium. Another disadvantage was in the issuance of suits (just sergeants securing these). The rest were seen in the space of the next few days in affairs that looked like a balloon that had been recently punctured and reminded a person of a miniatuie Zepi)eliu floating around near terra firma. Then came rifles : these put in their appearance with a bayonet on one end and an embryo soldier on the other. During a period of time there was what was called an epidemic and several were seen to take a sojourn in the direction of the hospital, some for one reason and others for another. Now listen, most folks say that this company could not make a (Jeruian say Kam- erad. Well, we have a few words to say on that subject and that is that they never saw the wild and woolly third floor bunch in action. To see them was to know down deep in your heart that the Kaiser ' s six sons were their prey indeed. They composed numerous specimens of West Virginia mountaineers and Virginians. There were others but they were seen then and are not to be mentioned now. Life kept at a point (not the kind that you sew with) for .some time, aud then came an armistice. It is rumored that the Crown Prince had heard of this band of valiant heroes and had advised his daddy to sign it before it was too late. So between and be- twixt, all were discharged and things were left normal except that one night a picture .show was given at the Lyric, so let ' s take a glance at that Company Bee through the camera.

The eighteen year-old boys knew little about the usual indoor sports of the army but they soon learned to acquit themselves quite well. There were few honors to be won. but we gi t our share of them.

T. V. life seemed quite tiresouie to souie uien. it is hard to say what would have beeu the state of affairs if there had been no ' Y at the Wash- ington and Lee camp. Soon after the organization of the S. A. T. C. the old bean- ery was transformed into a very attractive social center and made the home of the army Y. We were sent a very able and efficient secretary in the person of Mr. R. G. Walters. He had the building fitted wp in regulation army style and it soon became the nucleus of all our social life. Tlie battalion cantL ' en was opened up in the rear of this hall. The men gathered around in the Y at odd times and en- joyed boxing matches, singing, music and such other amusements as could be ob- tained. The Ked Cross ladies of Lexington came over freciuently and did some sew- ing for the boys and pi ' oved themselves friends indeed — since the boys were cer- tainly in need. Xo amount of work was spared to make the boys feel at home. The Y represented the connecting link between the army life and the life at home. Dr. Howe gave a good talk and led a snappy sing every Sunday morning, both of which were especially enjoyed by the old men who had been accustomed to attend similar classes of his in former years. In every respect the Y was a genuine success and will be carried in memory as one of the pleasantest recollections of the S. A. T. C. at W. and L. Paife One Hitndred-jourteen X iiJp X Once during the whole fall the student-soldiers were allowed to divert their minds from ' push and pull, trench-digging, K. P. work, and other such amuse- ments experienced in army lite, and were allowed to enjoy some dances that were held on the sixth and seventh of December. Great was the anticipation and longing in the minds of all the hard-worked and weary men, until the much hoped-for day rolled around. For once practi.cally all disci])line was cut out and every man al- lowed to doll-ui) in whiii-cord. serge, etc.. and stay nut as Inte at ni rht as he wished. The dance was h.cld on the tio(}r of the ' . il. I. iiyiiinasiuiii and riuht ' s was not to be had, but there were several jiirls and c(msri|Ucntly the li ii,t;--secluded student-soldiers all had a good time. Tlu ' sc dances wci ' c pretty ■ siid, but they served to break the still monotony of lilc and we apiireciated them accordingly. Most of the girls present seemed to have a good time at any rate and all of them went away rejoit-iug over the hopes of the good tiuic they would have if they could come to a ■ rcaP ' Vashington and Lee dance. — a iSpinilar rra;i ! The usual Freshman and Sophomore pushball light was not held at all last fall, but in its place a fight between the companies was planned. The planning was the biggest part about it as so many men went (in tlic casualty list after the fight be- tween companies A and 15 that for feai- of i-e;il disastnuis results, a ball was calleil. Page One Hitndrer-fifteen Fight was certainly the right name for this event. It was a case of all push and no iJiill ' that resulted in a victory for A company. At this time neither of the two companies had much love for the other and this opportunity of giving vent to their feelings was welcomed with great joy by both. Co. B had recently won the line in a parade, so Co. A had to get it back on them in some way. They did it according to the score of the game, which was 160 to 0, but as to the fight itself, it was pretty nearly fifty-fifty. It cost one company about as many breaks and bruises as the other and both so much blood-shed that it wasn ' t thought wise to stage another such event — this side of France. Though company B was theoretically defeated, each man left the field with rhe idea that his company hadn ' t been prac- tically whipped. In this fight there was no aspiring Freshman class that had its honors at stake, but every man in tlie fight fought with an unusual spirit all the v.-ay through — thus showing that his army training was beginning to net real results and that Fritz might have still more troulile if he didn ' t hurry up and get licked. ■ , ■■■♦ . i . .-..s-.i..

CoUeue year and with the coiuiiif: of the S. A. T. C, the question of maiutaluiuj; an Inter-collefiiate footliall team to comi)aie favorably with those of other years was tlie greatest iirohlem that iiresenteil itself to the student body. Because of the comiilexlty of the military duties and the small amount of time allotted for athletics, prospects for a team of auy calibre were nt)t bright. However, at the critical time the Government expressed itself as being heartily in favor of inter- collegiate athletics and made provision that ample time be granted for athletic practice and gave permission for two football trips to be made during the season. At the instigation of Captain Silverstein a football rally was held, financial aid pledged by the students and the matter of a coach solved by I t. Fitzpatrick. formerly of Boston College, volunteering his services. To Coach Fitzpatrick and Captain Silversteiu too much credit cannot be given as it was due chiefly to their efforts that foott all of any sort was made possible at W. and L. this year. With only Kaines. Fox. and Silverstein left of the Fighting Generals. the problem that confronted Fitzpatrick was to build a team around these men as a nucleus, out of raw material of the crudest type. How well he did this was evidenced by the fact that in the first game of the season the Generals succeeded in holding the powerful V. P. I. machine scoreless until the final period of the game. On Nov. 2 the Generals accompanied by 200 loyal fans journeyed to Roanoke where thev met V. P. I. The game was hard fought and well-contested throughotit hy both sides. and a scoreless tie was anticipated hy the spectators until the fourth (luarter. In this period the Techs steadily hammered the heretofore impregnable line of the White and Blue by a series of bucks from tandem formation, and when iu striking distance of the goal carried it over on a triple pass. This touchdown was soon followed by another effected by the same tactics. The game ended with W. and L on the receiving end ot a 1.3 to score. Next came David.son on Nov. 9, and in justice to the team it must be said that their gruelling trip, part of which was accomplished in automt)l)iles. was responsible for the lack of condition and poor form displayed against that aggregation. Steele at tackle and Fox at end were forced to leave the game because of injuries and Davidson had little trouble in running up 21 points, W. and L. remaining scoreless. The only game of the year played on WUsou Field came on No -. 10. when Wake Forest clashed with the Generals. The team stung to energy by its former defeats seemed to find itself in this game, scoring three touchdowns in the first quarter with little effort. Wake Forest came liack strong in the second half, however, and scored 14 points before being stopped. When the final whistle sounded the score stood 21 to in favor of Washington and Lee. Thus ended the rather disastrous season of the football team representing the Wash- ington and Lee Students Army Training Corps. Difficulties were met and surmounted; the men gave all they had : honor to them — they carried on. Page One Hnndred-eighieen idill X Captain. SiLVEiisTKiN. .Too. Fullljack. A.yv. 21. AVt. ITS.

Though forced to leave the team before the end of the season, because of injury first to his nose and then to his ankle, Les lived up to the reputation he had built for himself last year. A fierce tackier and an expert at receiving passes, Fox took care of his side of the line on both defense and offense, and very Sew were the gains scored against his flank. JOHXSOX, Frank. End. Age 18. T ' t. 136. This little midget, but 63 inches long and 136 pounds heavy, proved to be one of the best ends ever developed on Wilson Field. Before entering W. and L. he had participated in but four prep- school contests, but illustrated his ability in running down pimts and getting his man so well that he won a permanent position on tlie team. His shoe string tackles were the feature of every game. Steele, Maggie. Tackle. Age 20. Wt. 165. Maggie came and left with the S. A. T. C but few who saw him play will ever forget the fights he put up against heavier men, and the plays he smeared behind his opponents ' line. A tower of strength physically he kept up the morale of the entire line, kidding the fight into Fats Barrow, and always finding the bright side of things in a pinch. Dawson, W. A. Center. Age 18. Weight 175. After learning the rudiments of football out in Oklahoma, AVilliam Aubrey came to Washington and Lee to gather further in- formation as to the playing of this great American pastime, and aspired to fill the position so well played by the Count for four years. How well he succeeded in impressing his knowledge of the game on Fitz is evidenced by the fact that he figured in every game but Davidson and an infected arm was responsible for his absence from this fray.

B.VLL, ' Jesse. Quarterbaek Halfback. Ase V.i. Vi. 14(!. Whether in fun or in football, whatever Jesse did be put bis whole heart and soul in the work. A fast halfback and a sure tack- ier lie was not to be denied his place on the Varsity. Tn breaking up the interference and getting his man Jesse was at his licst. C.vro, ■■Buck. End. Age -20.

Fitzpatrick ' s judgment was vindicated by Cato ' s jilaying against V. P. I. and the other games in which he replaced Fox when the latter ' s injuries coinpelK ' d him to withdraw.

Al was another wizard from MassacluLsetts and he lived up to the reputation set by that long line of football warriors who have [ilayed with a Washington and Lee team nearly every year. Carter was a Ijulwark of defense and a bunch of energy on the offense. Nothing can set through his side of the line. Barrow, ' -Fats. Guard. Age 20. Wt. 21 S. Fats was the running mate of Maggie and the combination was hanl to Ijeat. When it come to boxing an opponent and putting liis man out of play Fats was right there. Xo charging the line was necessary for him, he w-eighed 218 pounds. He always did more than his share. Patterson-. Pat. Guard. Age 20. Wt. 178. Pat was another remnant of the Fighting Generals squad and put his training under Eaftery to good advantage last fall. He was of great assistance in coaching the linemen and always gave the l)est that was in him whenever called upon. McCaleb, Mac. Manager. ilac is another who made football possilile for W. and L. this year. Handicapped by the fact that most of our regular opponents had already completed their schedules he set to work with enthusi- asm that was contagious and arranged a card of only three games it is true, but these with three of the strongest teams in the South, lac deserves the highest praise for his faithful work.

With live monogram men back in the per.sons of Captain Fain. Graham. McCain. P.ryant and .Johnston, and this coupled with the ju-esence of Raftery as co.-n-h. the outlook for this sporl was indet ' il liright. Inaugurating the season with a game with Randolph-Macon on .January 14. W. L. easily ran up a score of 5o points to their opponents (i. Uridgewater. Virginia Christian College, and St. .John ' s followed within the next ten days and were defe.-itcd with very little effort. JTpon the heels of this set (if g:inies came the crucial tests of the team ' s aliilily. and it was not found lacking. William an l Mary, R ]an(]ke. and Elon were vaniiuished rcsjicc- tively, repaying Roanoke College in small measure for the defeat of the White anil Blue .suffered at her hands a year ago. In this contest the passing of the Generals was excel- lent. Roanoke was comjiletely imtjilayed in every angle of the gaine, the tinal score lietng 39 to 18. On February S. W. ; I,, .journi ' yed down to Lynchburg to play V. I ' , I. and ex- perienced bitter luck all thnaigh the game. Merce (Jraham being forced to retire early from action because of injury to his ankle, and McCain being jiut out of the game on personal fouls. The score while large. .37 to IS, was no Indication of the lighting strength of the two teams, as was evidenced by the later encounter with the same team anil by the often fallacious but much-relied upon system of comparative scores. The fidlowing week brought games with Kavidson and North Carolina, the Generals obtaining an even break with these ijuints. winning easil.v from J avidson and losing the hardest fought game of the season to Carolina b.v four points. Wake Forest came next and suffered defeat by a doubled score. In this contest W. I,, though still minus Graham, completely outplayed their opponents, exhibiting a system of passwork seldom seen on the Gymnasium floor. P i( i ' One IliiiiJnJ-t iirly-one ( ' Vl aiiiii ijl ■Buck- Bryant. Guard. Always aggressive and ready to take the fight into the enetny ' s country, Buck ' s guarding was a revelation to all who saw him. The high- est tribute that can be paid him in recognition of his services in this capacity is the quotation of the score of the Elon game— W. L. 50, Elon 0. ■•M. c ' - McC.MN. Forward. Unable to play basketball last year because of an op- eration, McCain more than r ade up for his absence in his stellar work at forward. A cool head, an accurate eye, and hard all over, he was an ideal man for his position. His long shots featured every game. ■ Akby Arbog. st. Forward. Arby is another Freshman addition to the team. He is big and strong, and de- lights in roughing ' em up. Formerly a member of the dirty five, he proved him- self worthy of the Varsity by his hard work and is there to stav. Mi:i;( K Graham. Center. Merc; was the keystone, around whom the entire at- tack of the Generals was centered. The big center couldn ' t seem to miss, scoring from 5 to 10 field goals a game, and on one occasion ringing 18 baskets H ' s loss for a ' -hile through iniurv to his ankle resulted in two de- feats that would probably have been changed to vic- tories with him in the game. Jimmy Fain. Captain. Guard. -After the war was over Jimmy returned to college as an ex-lieutenant and de- monstrated that the army had in no way dampened his ardor or dulled his eye for basketball. A perfect dynamo of energy, he was all over the floor, following the ball wherever it went and im- buing his men with the cool- ness and confidence which was a part of him. HiNES. Forward. Kenneth learned to play basketball somewhere in West Virginia (so he says). Judg- ing from the quality of his work he certainly had one fine teacher. Fast, snappy, and big, he covers lots of space, is a dead shot under the basket or from the foul line, and knows how to use his head. Piirjr One Uuiuired-lliirty-t vo Page One Hundred-thirly-ihree C.

FRESHMEN DECIDING TO YES ON THE VIGILANCE COM- MITTEE QUESTION JIMMY FAIN Children, this is Jimmy F . what ' s that you say? You have heard your big sister speak of him? We dare say so, for he is a big dog with them all as yo ' i see by bis caninistic figure. Does he Ijark? That he does, for he fully realizes that he must make a noise to be the Big Dog he is. Does he bite? Ah no, for he has a tender heart despite his fierce ap- pearance, and none of the fair sex can show one mark of his teeth, which is as it should be. He has a voracious appetite and de- vours all kinds of honors with a surpris- ing speed. He is not content, however, to bask in the sunshine of his popularity with either the fair se.x or his brothers of the Y. N. Ell Kennel, and when har- nessed will work willingly for Miss W. L. Finals, or his present owner, Mr. AVilliam VOTE Eaftery. His efforts on the behalf of the latter especially, are noteworthy and no one can deny the fact that this nice Big Dog deserves plenty to eat.

WATTS Hah! whom have we here? A valorous life-guard from the rock-bound coast. What can be more appealing than this saver of ship-wrecked souls, I ask you? When the waves dash high, the skies are lilack. and all bodes ill for humanity, you will find him on the shore peering thru the fog for someone — anyone in fact, to save from the briny deep. Can you not see liim now. — throwing aside the sheets of mountain-high salt water? Can you not see him grasping the victims by the hair, and pulling them to a place of safety? Ah, he is forsooth, a man of a kind we but seldom see. We can hot give our hero his just due, for his chivalry and voluntary exposure to the lioint of even death itself for the sake of mankind. Saver Watts is a fish of the first water ; the medals he sports speak volumes for his acouatic ability, the largest of which, he won at Oystew Bay. in the ten-mile swim last .lanuary. Here Watts swam two miles off the course and yet by in- creasing his stroke, won handily, even tho his opponents, W. B. Watts. B. W. Wattes and W. Whattsis are by no means unknown swimmers. We cannot say too much for this brave fellow, and we hope that this web-foot may be per.suaded to guard the swimming liool from influenza germs and the like, and to keep them from finding their way to the cream,.

GOOD PROSPECTS FOR TEAM The call for candidates for the dancing team, issued by ( oacli Wisdom, was well an- swered by a large amount of promising material, which gives us hope for a successful season. Of last year ' s team we have Tickletoe Burns, Bud McKenzie, who was injured in the Sweet Briar game, but lias comjiletely recovered. Cou McCaleb. who is a match for any pla.ver on either the Sweet Brier or Roanoke teams, and .Jazz- Ford Trotter, i)icked by many authorities for AU-Americau team last year. With these as a basis. Coach Wisdom hopes to build an unbeatable team to send against the Sweet Brier and Southern Sem. exponents of the teriigichorean sport. Among the new men the following are showing up the best : Monk Murdoch, who played on the Ala. State team last year, and should make us a good man; Tiny Trotter whose form is rough still, but worthy of de- veloping, aud Punch .Jacobs, who while lacking in tech- nique, has a force and vigor about his work which is un- deniable, and will make it hard for many of his op- ponents. Support your team, men, financially and morally and stand behind them always. On to Sweetbrier. THE FLIMSY DRESS BALL (An extract from Tiik Cov-det. I The annual Coy- let Flim.sy Dress Ball was held I ' Vbruaiy 21. and was in every respect equal if not superior to all such Virginia Millinery Institute functions of passed years. As usual, this affair was made pos- siltle only by the philanthropy and spirit of self-sacrifice of Miss Ann. K. Black, who once more consented at the risk of her sanity and i)ocket-book to manage the Ball. and carried a garden stick. At a blast of the whistle the figure commenced — and what a figure! The gyrations, con- volutions, and contortions, it made. At the end of an hour and a half, during whicli sev- eral had fainted from the emotional strain produced by the figure, two blasts upon the whistle were given and lo and behold tlie.v had formed three letters of awful sig- nificance. W-T-B met the anxious gaze of the spectators which when interpreted cor- rectly means, We Throw Bombs. ' Dancing was en- joyed during the last fifteen minutes of the Ball. Several students of Wash- ington and Lee, besides Mas- ter Witt, were noted on the floor, but all these left b e- fore refreshments w ere served. The chaperones all wore Sum Browne belts, over- seas cajis and carried swag- ger sticks of the most fetcliing type. The 0.vmnasium, thanks to Miss Ann. E. Black, was decorated profusely w i t h Christmas trees and festoons of moss and rolling stones. It was a very successful affair. The dance was held in the Doremus Memorial Gymnas- ium, thanks to the courtesy of Washington and I ee. a small neigliboring institution, and a . ouug country school boy whom they call .John Witt, helped with the decorations for the Institute. Because of the loan of the Gym and the work of the students, the Coy- dets following the traditions of generosity inculcated in the boys on the hill allowed the students of Washington and Lee to give a small and modest figure not to exceed ten minutes in length. This was led by the deserving young bo.v. Master Witt, with Miss AVoolen Foreststream. It was soon gotten over with AND THEN THE COY- DETS TOOK THE FLOOR. The Gymnasium went wild and several girls swooned with excitement. When things had quieted down a bit, Coy- det Won ' ts .sounded his whistle for THE figure to begin. Then began perhaps the most mar- velous exhibition of its kind ever seen at the Gymnasium.

Xote their diminutive figures, their poor, weak Imibs. and then imagine to yourselves the fear and consternation Caused them by their monstei-. this unspeakable but powerful beast, who without cause has beaten them to a pulp. Savage, tierce, and cr iel witlnmt restraint, he is a menace to a civilized community such as Lexington is at times. Think well on ' t and we are sure that you will never rest again until this human lion is brought fo justice. Page Two Ilundred-jorly-nine TESTIMOXrALS Dear Sirs : My ward. Cecil B. was for a long time a nervous, wailins little infant. He cried incessantly, and nothing I could do would stop him. When his teeth began to cut through he became still more fussy, and the noise of his cries was heart-rending. I lost sleep night after night, and be- came myself a physical wreck, and was in the depths of despair. Then I heard of your product and its wonderful work. At my wit ' s end I sent for a bottle of your Mother Winslowe ' s Toothing Syrup and after giving it to liim constantly I noticed a marvelous change. He seemed happy and contented, and he would smile and gurgle and play with his cute little toes for hours. Your .syrup has done wonders for my ward, and I want all disturbed and nerve- wrecked parents and guardians to know of this blessing for the sake of their chil- dren and themselves. I am yours forever, Georgia Priscilla Wilson. Lossa Hair Company, Murat. Virginia. Dear Company : Some time ago my hair started to fall out. Nothing I tried stopped it. and fre- quently after combing my hair. I could not see the comb for its complete camouflage. I once got in the way of an electric fan, and it blew away nearly all my mop be- fore I realized what had happened. I was sore distressed, and was about to send in a hurry call to Van Horn ' s, when I heard of your wonderful hair restorer from Dr. Hairy Campbell, who as you know, owes his beautiful head of hair to the timely application of your tonic. Without delay I sent for a bottle, and now have several nice hairs upon any one six)t on my head that you fix your gaze. If it had not been for you and your tonic I would have been a second Paderewski. Nevertheless yours. Earl S. Mattingly. L ' ecole de danse. (;;as(.eau. Va. I wish to thank you for the great help your lessons have been to me. I never really knew how to dance before I started them. The idea of correspondence lessons in such an art never really oc- cured to me. I did not hesitate but started right to work as soon as your books came. I prac- ticed with everything from a broom and a clothes tree and the kitchen stove and will soon be the most graceful dancer in W. L., as I am learning fast, and can HOW walk backwards. One girl at the last dance liked my steps so well, that she refused to leave me, and we danced to- gether for hours. I think this proves my increasing adeptness. With thanks. I guess I am, Tours, Judge F. Fielder. Bill M. Upp Co. Dear Sirs: Before I heard of Nixaiuit Iron, I was thin and emaciated. I had pains in my back, my eyes watered, my feet got in each other ' s way. and I could hardly even dance. After eight and one-half doses of your medicine, I actually began to feel young again. I could dance with ease, my feet turned out naturally, and I could go anywhere without assistance. My former attraction for the fair sex again became noticeable, and I can only tell you how happy I am to be myself once more, and am now weighing nearly fifty pounds. Gratefully yours, Willie B.
