President Twenty-seven Washington and Lee ' s Unique Riches Washington and Lee was founded as Augusta Academy in 1749. It was the concrete expres- sion of that devotion to reUgion and learning which characterized the Christian settlersof the Valley of Virginia. Two months before the Declaration of Independance. the trustees by a unanimous vote changed its name to Liberty Hall. In 1782. it was formally incorporated as an mdependent Institution under a self-perpetuating board of trustees. In 1798. after long research and delibera- tion. George Washington adopted the Institution, richly endowed it. formally authorized it to bear his name, and dedicated it to the Christian civilization of the Republic of the West. After the wreck of the Civil War. it was completely reorganized by the administrative genius of Robert E. Lee who modernized and doubled its undergraduate departments, established Univer- sity Schools of Law. of Engineering, of Journalism, and of Commerce, to rebuild and advance the civilization of the South, fixed its traditions of courtesy, honor, and broadminded patriotism, converted it into a Twentieth-Century Nursery of Leadership ' fifty years ahead of the age . and then, suddenly called to his reward, bequeathed to its keeping his sacred dust and his incomparable name. Washington had endowed the Institution with his money; General Lee enriched it forever by giving it himself. In its ennobling memories and traditions, no Institution in America can compare with Washington and Lee. Thus its location, its history, its independence, and its great founders, seem forever to set the Institution apart from narrow limitations, low aims, and sordid labors, to serve the things of the spirit, and lift the future leaders of the nation toward the con- secration, public spirit, and public service of Washington and Lee. HER EQUALLY UNIQUE POVERTY It seems incredible that such an Institution, with such a history and such a possible national service, should be crippled by unrelenting and unrelieved lack of financial capital. This had been partially due to the desolation and poverty of the South since General Lee ' s reorganization of the Institution, b ut mainly, perhaps, to the fact that its unique position in the South as a recipient of no taxation funds or church revenues, and dependent entirely upon private philanthropy, is almost entirely unknown. In the whole realm of productive philanthropy and the advancement of Christian civilization there is no such present opportunity for fruitful financial investment as this unique Southern Nursery of Leadership, situated midway between the North and the South. HER INSPIRING HOME TASK In such a situation, and with such an All-Southern and national field of influence, the home task of Washington and Lee is to be totally different form our crowded, local, partisan institutions. It is to cultivate an All-Southern, national, broad-minded and uplifting Campus atmosphere; to so guide, train and develop its home standards and home life that the moral atmosphere of its Campus, the customs and traditions of its students activities, and the love and loyalty and honor and courtesy of all connected with it. may forever remain worthy of the name and character of its immortal founders. HER ALL-SOUTHERN TASK FOR THE FUTURE The outside task of Washington and Lee is threefold: I 1,1 To recruit its Student Body from the finest material of the whole South and. to a lesser degree, from the nation, thus extending its breadth and moulding influence to every part of our Republic, and lifting American civilization above local narrowne.ss. local jealousies, and sectional hatreds. ' 2 I To convert the whole, undivided South to an acceptance of Washington and Lee as its one historic All-Southern Nursery of Leadership, belonging equally to every Southern State, to every religious denomination, and to every American wherever located who desires to honor the memory, perpetuate the ideals, and carry on the life work of such transcendent civic leaders as Washington and Lee. ( 3 1 To accumulate as rapidly as possible the millions of additional equipment and endowment necessary to carry on General Lee ' s life work and to perpetuate his ideals; to admit to its training, prospective leaders from every quarter, whom it is now rejecting for lack of equipment, and to be- come as Washington dreamed and Lee planned, an All-Soi ' Thern Nur.sery of Christian Leadership for the South, for the nation, and for our Western civilization. Twenty-eight HENRY DONALD CAMPBELL. Ph.D.. Sc.D. Dean of the University The Limitation of Enrollment at Washington and Lee Owing to the fact that the number of applicants for admission to the Univer- sity during the past few years has been greater than could be adequately taken care of with the present equipment and teaching force, it has been found necessary to limit the number of new students accepted in the College and School of Commerce until such time as the funds of the Institution will justify further expansion. Not- withstanding the limitation of the number of Freshmen admitted, the total enroll- ment has increased from 737 to 853 within five years, on account of the increased percentage of Upperclassmen who return to College. The increase in the percentage of students returning to College is due in part to the efforts to keep the University up to higher scholastic standards; in part to the increasing opportunities open to College graduates; and in part to the advanced Collegiate requirements for admis- sion to professional schools. Applicants for admission to the School of Law of Wash- ington and Lee University, and other standard law schools, must have successfully completed at least two years of Collegiate work. Twenty-nine WILLIAM HAYWOOD MORELAND, LL.B. Dean The School of Law The Law School is completing the first year of its operation under the strictest rules governing entrance that are found in any Southern law school. It is the considered judgment of the American Bar Association that no person shall be admitted to the practice of law, unless he has first been graduated from a law school having a three-year course for its degree and which requires of the student, before admission, that he shall have completed at least two years of College academic work; and the association has appealed to the law schools of the country to reach and maintain this high standard. No school responded more quickly or more whole-heartedly than did the School of Law of Washington and Lee Univer- sity. The result has been as was expected. The number of the students has been very materially reduced: but those who do enter, are better prepared, better taught while they are here, and better equipped for practice when they are graduated. Washington and Lee Law School feels that it is doing its part toward raising the level of that profession to which its members are devoting their lives, and they have the satisfaction of knowing that their efforts have received recognition from the highest authority- -the American Bar Association rating this law school. A. Thirty CALYX 1925 JAMES LEWIS HOWE. Ph.D.. M.D. Dean The School of Apphed Science The School of Apphed Science of Washington and Lee University was founded as a School of Engineering by General Robert E. Lee in 1 866, and the first Professor of Engineering was Colonel William Allan who had been chief ordnance officer in the second corps of the army of Northern Virginia. He was succeeded by General G. W. Custis Lee who followed his father as President of the University. Degrees of B.S. are given in Engineering. Chemistry, and Electrical Engineering. The Department of Civil Engineering occupies Reid Hall which was erected for the Departments of Engineering and Physics in 1904. The Chemical Department has already partly moved into the new Chemical Building just completed, the lower floor of which is given over to Electrical Engineering.

Ph.D. Dean The School of Commerce and Business ' Administration Washington and Lee established in 1906 the first University School of Com- merce in the South. This was the outgrowth of an endowment raised as a memorial to Willi am Lyne Wilson. The School of Commerce and Administration now includes the Departments of Economics, Commerce, Business Administration, Accounting, Political Science, and Sociology, the courses offered leading to a degree of Bachelor of Science in Commerce. The school undertakes to give an education through the instrumentality of courses in Business and Public Administration, and thus to tram for leadership in business and public life. One year of general College work is required for admission, and specialization groups are limited to the Junior and Senior years. The School of Commerce and Administration now occupies the larger part of Newcomb Hall and, in addition, a smaller building eqiupped for instruction in Accounting and Statistics. The student enrollment this session is 236, of whom 46 are Seniors applying for the degree of Bachelor of Science in Commerce, in June, 1 925. Thirty-two Ity acu Henry Louis Smith. A.B..

He came here four years ago from Randolph-Macon, last year receiving his Bachelor of Arts degree and at the same same time continuing his studies in the Law School. Possessed of an ability to master any subject he undertakes, with a brilliancy equaled by few. he will meet with success on the highway of life. Whatever obstacles he may encounter will fall before his per- sistent efforts. The individual f ersonality which belongs to Shorty. mark him the true gentleman to all who meet him. He is composed of the elements which tend toward the making of a great man. If you believe in success. watch Shorty. MEREDITH FLETCHER BAUGHER Staunton. Virginia K A: 4 A A: n A . Buck ' sauntered over from Staunton some four years ago with academic and legal ambitions which are now culminating in a just reward for his earnest endeavors. With a cheery smile, a quip, and a word for everybody, he has indelibly stamped his ever-colorful personality on each and every mind in his Student Body. We, who have dipped beneath the surface, admire his sterling worth, his admirable traits and genial fellowship, and regret sincerely his departure. But a profession other than pressing the offsprings of Finchley awaits him. He goes forth, fully prepared for a sensational career, and wit h the best wishes of a host of friends who feel reasonably assured that he will never stop below the topmost pin- nacle Luck to you. Buck! Forty-two Gr SAM BUCHOLTZ Jacksonville, Florida Z B T; Troubadours. ' 23. ' 24. The above is a likeness of Sam Bucholtz of Jacksonville, scholastic shark and violin virtuoso. Throughout his legal career in Tucker Hall, he has maintained a consistent degree of pre-eminence in his law exams, and an enviable standard of preparedness in his class-room work. His musical propensities found expression in the Troubadour Orchestra, and his skill in drawing a bow has produced for him a well founded reputation as a potential Kreisler. His quiet, unassuming yet sincere manner, has made for him the friendship of the leading men on the Campus. Good nature, persistence, ability, and loyalty are the outstanding attributes of this future leader of the Jacksonville Bar. We predict a high degree of success for this extraordinary barrister as he steps into the legal limelight. GEORGE THOMAS CLARK. JR. Russellville. Kentucky AE: t BK: OAK; I A A; HAN: Executive Committee. ' 25: Washington Liter- ary Society. Colonel George T. Clark comes by his title honestly, for who has a better claim to wear a handle of that character than a true son of the State of fast horses and beautiful women Stimulated by a desire to become well versed in the realm of knowledge made famous by Coke and Blackstone. Colonel laid siege to Tucker Hall, and after three years of unceasing and varied attacks hgis succeeded in reducing the walls of defense in such a manner as should cause the legal lights of the day to squirm uncomfortably. As he leaves us. we cannot fail to remark that the Campus loses a great asset and that Kentucky is receiving a citizen well able to bear his burden of the affairs of state.

Wirt goes forth from the historic portals of Tucker Hall to take up the practice of law in his native bailiwick of West Virginia; which advent, we have no doubt, will be attended by no small degree of success. As a result of his leadership on the Cam- pus, he was elected into Omicron Delta Kappa last year, is a member of Phi Alpha Delta legal fraternity and of numerous other social and honorary societies. His host of friends in the University send with him on his departure their sincerest wishes for his continued success in his chosen profession. HERBERT MacMILLAN GOULD Ardn Pennsylvania A X P; 5.

His many Campus activities range from debating to tennis to publication work to making staunch friends; and we hardly know where to start in enumerating his achievements. Herb hung out his shingle in Lexington as a member of the Bar long before he received his coveted sheepskin, and he is already well known m local courts as a capable attorney. It is. therefore, useless to make any predictions as to his future success, since his past record speaks for itself. As Herb goes out into the legal world, he bears with him the sincere good wishes of his many associates at Washington and Lee.

Hink entered the School of Law in the Fall of 1922, and this June is to be numbered among those who will go forth with the greatly-coveted LL.B. With a quiet air of cordiality, his thorough sincerity, and his unusual faculty for making friends, he has been throughout his stay in Washington and Lee an outstand- ing man on the Campus in every respect. Hink plans to locate in his home State, probably in Roswell. to continue his law in actual practice. He will always be remembered by his classmates and friends here as a real Washington and Lee man and one who may be expected to continue the success which has attended his College RANSOM BRIDGERS HOUCHINS Roanoke.

The first year was devoted almost entirely to a study of Domestic Relations, and the second and third years to the application of those principles. While Houch has been a successful student at Washington and Lee, he has not lost sight of the many other advantages to be gained on the Campus. His many friends will attest to the fact that another example of the good fellowship of Washington and Lee and the true spirit of the South will leave with Houch. We can confidently predict success in his chosen profession, and certainly he leaves with enough of the old fight to put him through. Forty-five il! LEO SUTHERLAND HOWARD Floyd, Virginia X A K; Vice-President Senior Law Class. Chucky is the addendum placed on Leo ' s regular name by his friends; an epithet truly applicable in more than one sense. It carries with it the breath of congeniality and cheerfulness, and bespeaks bigness of character as well as physical size. Willing to take the knocks, and capable of enjoying to the fullest its pleasures. Leo has derived from his experience a bright philosophy all his own. Three years of steady application has brought to Leo its reward in the shape of the coveted dip with which he is going to bring the world to his door. Rich in a large coterie of friends, possessed of perseverance and the will to do. we expect a lot of Chucky. and have no thought of being disappointed. FRANCIS GORDON HUDCINS Newport News. Virginia A X P; Ring-turn Phi ' Slajff. ' 24. Intercol- legiate Editor, ' 25. After spending two years preparing for law at V. P. I.. Dizzy came to us in the Fall of 1922 and entered Tucker Hall. Dur- ing his stay on our Campus, Dizzy has been actively engaged in numerous extra- curricula activities. Foremost, perhaps, is his work on publications, where his faithful and conscientious labor has always been outstanding. Never let it be said that our Dizzy failed to dazzle the Dollies. for a box car could scarcely carry his collection of female hearts: some broken and others badly damaged. Dizzy is a man of fervent spirit, and creates an ever-increasing friendship with every meeting. He carries with him best wishes for his future success from his host of friends on the Campus. (l Forty-s ' II! EDWIN GRAVES HUNDLEY Huntington. West Virginia 2 A K. The familiar subject here is Dog, the name he generally goes by to the members of the Student Body, but personally we have never been able to find any justification for such a cognomen Dog came to us from the Mountaineer State, West Virginia, and his good judgment asserted itself from the first, by his coming to Washington and Lee. After two years of the Academic School, he heard the call of the Bar. and entered the Law School. His rare personality is characteristic only of Dog. and his smile for everyone has made for him a host of friends on the Wash- ington and Lee Campus. With such a personality and combined ability to make friends, he cannot help but make good in whatever he may undertake in the future.

Tis said that some are born rich, others acquire riches, and still others have riches thrust upon them. We classify the illuminat- ing countenance which appears above in all three categories, for he has obtained a full share of each. Blessed with the faculty of making staunch friends, possessing a keen intellect and sharp wit. as well as a masterful com- mand of language which has helped to make him one of the most journalistically-gifted men that has ever stepped upon the Wash- ington and Lee Campus.

From the red-clay hills of Gawga and a prepping year at Tech, Billy came to our Academic School, and then, in search of vastly different learning, entered Tucker Hall. His four years have been crammed full of law, friends (real friends- and honors, for not only was he elected Junior Manager of Football, but also President of the Inter- mediate Law Class, thus being recognized for his efficiency and popularity. Although addicted to periodicals not generally found in the library, Billy has found time to absorb both law and equity, which, combined with a genial and magnetic personality will pave an easy path for a deserved Eldorado and a coveted place among Washington and Lee ' s most dis- tinguished Alumni.

Being naturally good natured and in- dustrious. Dorsey has made many friends in the Law School and on the Campus, and has easily passed the various courses pur- suant to the study of the law. We all expect to see Dorsey emulate the example of his fellow townsman and Wash- ington and Lee man — John W. Davis — m a rapid rise in the legal and political world. Luck to vou. Mitch.

Virginia, with a thirst for a knowledge of the Law. Since he has been here, that thirst has been quenched, because Eddie ' s favorite hangout is Tucker Hall. During his stay on the Campus. Eddie has become a part of the University itself — everyone knows him and he knows everyone. There can be no doubt as to his interest in all things pertaining to Washington and Lee, for he has displayed this attribute on innu- merable occasions. His genial personality has fitted him for every situation. To be respected, admired and popular are assets to any political aspirant, and so a great career is predicted for Ed die. If the Campus can be used as a testing laboratory, he will some day occupy the White House. JOHN COOPER MORRISON, JR. Charleston, West Virginia f K T: O A K; 1 A ' 1 ' ; li II A K: ' ' 13 : %; C.

Johnny leaves Washington and Lee an outstanding figure in every field of Campus activity — scholastic, athletic, journalistic, dramatic, social, and executive. As President of the Student Body he lias demonstrated unusual executive ability and filled most admirably this highest posi- tion of trust and honor His social conquests and popularity are attested by his election to every social club on the Campus and the Presidency of the Cotillion Club. John leaves his Alma Mater a man among men, respected, honored and loved. As a barrister, success, we are sure, awaits him. Ill i ill lii Forty-nine K arc.- i!!

After being out for four years he returned and entered the Law School with an enviable record already established. In him we find that rare combination — unusual scholastic ability, practical common sense which refuses to be swayed by passion or prejudice, and a good fellowship that is as lastmg as it is genuine. With his thorough knowledge of the law, a real ability along busmess lines, and his high principles, there is no necessity for a prophecy in regard to his future success. ROBERT FILLMORE NORFLEET Suffolk. Virginia K A: ! A A. The wanderlust caused Fil to leave Washington and Lee after his first year, and he attended George Washington Uni- versity. But realization was not too late in coming, and he returned to our Campus for a stay of three years in the Law School. Whether Fil takes up the practice of law in Suffolk or elsewhere, success is his, if we may base our judgment on his record here, for those qualities which lead to success i n any field are his. We place him in the category of an all- round man. a true gentleman, and a friend who can be counted upon under the most trying circumstances. His many associates regret to see him leave, and all join in wish- ing him untold success as a barrister. (L : Fifty PERRY ALLEN NORMAN Winnfield. Louisiana 2 A K: S. C; Varsily Track. 22. ' 23.

Perry has gone over the top for the glory of Washington and Lee many times in track meets, with his pole-vaulting, and has w on for himself that coveted position of captain of the team. It is with the same spirit that he has conquered the Law School, and we are sure of seeing him reach the peak in the legal profession. We are all behind you.

When John came to us from St. John ' s College, there was no need for him to try to make himself known, for already every- one was asking. Where is the boy who got a B.A. degree from St. John ' s at seventeen years of age? At the age of nineteen, John passed the Maryland State Bar. and now at twenty he is getting an LL.B. from Tucker Hall. John has always been a leader among his fellow students: he has been an officer in his literary society, his legal fraternity, and his class. In the class room, the old. familiar unprepared was never heard to come from him. The world will find a beaten path to his door, and the Class of ' 25 leads off by point- ing its finger with pride to John. e S cA- C Fifty-o I!i MARVIN IRBY WALTON Danville.

(In passing, we wonder if the proximity of Holhns had anything to do with the change. I John, though he has never lost his warm feeUng for Davidson, soon became a true Washington and Lee man, adapting him- self to College hfe as he found it here, interesting himself in the traditions of the school, and supporting the University to the n-th degree in all phases.

He possesses in abundance that quality to do well whatever he under- takes. His management of this year ' s Basketball team has been more than suc- cessful. His sunny disposition has enabled him to make friends readily. Underneath his easygoing way are found the sterling traits of character and the steady purpose that will make his successes worth while.

Joe hast persuadest a fair young damsel to be Mrs. Bruin. We are indeed fortunate to have this youngster in our class, because he is a man of true worth, of honesty of purpose, and of excellent aspira- tions. Joe appreciates his responsi- bilities. hence his success is inevitable, and to such a type of manhood does Washington and Lee owe much of her time-honored traditionalism. OLLINGER CRENSHAW Atlanta.

On the Campus, he has been recog- nized as a student of brilliant intellect and high character. Not only has he been able to acquire the History Scholarship along with other scholastic honors, but has also proven himself to be one of the best tennis players at Washington and Lee. and his tall and slender form wielding that mighty racket reminds us of the famous Bill Tilden. To know this student and gentleman has been a privilege to all the students of Washington and Lee. for he is a worthy friend and comrade. May Atlanta send more sons like him.

At McCallie. Rody learned the value of uninterrupted concentration, and with that asset established intellectual records at Washington and Lee that few have broken. He was undaunted by the strictness of the University curriculum and has main- tained an enviable standing in all his classes. The completion of a four-year course of study in three is ample evidence of his untiring devotion to mental achievements. However, he has not permitted ambitions for scholastic honors to deprive him of participation in other activities, and his successes have been equally as prominent in many other fields. Lastly, and by far the best, he has offered to many a friendship which will always be remembered with pleasure. May his future be moulded with the same ideals which have dominated the corner-stone of his career. BRUCE DRAPER Tampa. Florida K : W. F.: C. C..- Freshman Football. Foot- ball Squad. ' 23. Alligators are characteristically slow, but above is pictured one Gator who very quickly recognized the true worth of Wash- ington and Lee. Evidently, information of the Plastic Age had reached Florida. About four months afterwards, there came the sudden realization that College is not what you read about. Frivolity and procrastination were all cast into the fire, and the registrar ' s records will easily prove that you can ' t keep a good man down. He returns to Florida, and whether or not he is to be an orange-grower, alligator farmer, or a keeper of tourists resorts, we shall in the future see Bruce in the Who ' s Who of Florida, as his qualities of stead- fastness, ability, and natural likableness will place him there.

He comes from Staunton, but so did Woodrow Wilson, although Bob is a staunch Republican. There is no word in any cross-word puzzle that can describe him. Outwardly, Bob appears tremendously silly, while many think him screamingly funny — and a few believe him slightly in- sane. But merely glance at his record, and there can be no doubt of his brilliance. Any- one who can carry away the Latin and Mathematics Scholarships has an intellect far above the average. With all his foolish- ness and brilliance, we yet must love him. Cynic that he is. he hates people. e, - € BRUCE FRANKLIN GANNAWAY Washington, D. C. Cross-Country Team. ' 23. ' 24. ' 25: Tracl(.

Bruce came to the Campus from the nation ' s capital, and he returns well fitted for whatever he undertakes. IDurmg the past four years, Bruce has found time from his study to take part in outside activities and has made for himself many lifelong friends through his genial and sincere personality. Through hard work and stick-to-it-iveness he has become one of the most dependable cross-country runners that Washington and Lee has boasted in many years, and with such work and perseverance applied to his life ' s endeavor, true success will be his. 3 u tr £ Fifty-seven iii . k i KENNETH AUBURN GOODE Richmond, Virginia Pelly Players.

He has found time to make his influence felt in many Campus activities, and is sure to be missed next year by all, including the Earl. As a star with the ladies.

He did not have to adapt himself to conditions here on the Campus, for it may be truly said of him that he is a natural-born Washington and Lee man; a true gentleman and a loyal friend. Tom intends to study law at Michigan after leaving here. Our best wish for him is that he may there uphold the traditions and ideals of Washmgton and Lee with the same zealous care with which he has upheld them here. We are sure that his genial fellowship and pleasing personality will win for him a host of friends at Michigan and in later years. May your success always be measured by your friends, Tom.

Then being desirous of studying medicine, he decided to take a Pre-Medical course at Washington and Lee. Pres is blessed with a most pleasant disposition, and it was not long before he had a host of friends on the Campus, all of whom are sorry to see him leave. In his studies we find him among those with the B grade, which proves that he is a good student. In addition to doing justice to his work. Pres has taken an active interest in the revival of the Wash- ington Literary Society. Next year.

After graduating from the Columbia Military Academy, he entered Washington and Lee to pursue further that will-o ' -the-wisp known as knowledge. That he has been successful in his endeavor, is evidenced by the fact that in June he will become the proud possessor of the much-coveted sheepskin. During his College career. Johnny has participated in numerous activities, and has made many lifelong friends who wish him all possible success in his chosen life ' s work. Of a jovial, friendly disposition, John leaves a host of friends on the Wash- ington and Lee Campus. Of him it can well be said. Gone but not forgotten. Sixty Hi NICHOLAS WILLIAM KLEIN. JR.

Although Nick does not come under any of those terms, he is characteristically a product of that State. After attempting Maryville College and the University of Kentucky, he discovered that Virginia is the educational center par ex- cellence, and Washington and Lee the best in the best State. Consequently, he has had but two years with us. yet in these two years we have learned to appreciate his exceedingly fine qualities. It is understood that he intends inventing a machine where- by he can be in Washington within an hour, no matter where he happens to be. It is needless to say. of course, that we are expecting for him success unparalleled. Kentucky, send us more like him!

On account of especially brilliant and extensive work in the Department of Education.

We hate to pull that trite crack about still waters run deep, but it applies so well here that we just could not get around it. While he has selfishly denied himself to the fair sex of this part of the country, it would not be safe to make any such state- ment as to his actions down in Greenville: and if there ' s a bull session down at Uncle Bud ' s that doesn ' t include Frank, it means he is out of town.

Matt ' s ' beautiful baritone voice has afforded us no end of pleasure and has earned for him the title of Campus mocking bird.

Pete was duly impressed by the many fine schools in Virginia, and selected Hollins and Washington and Lee for higher education. Although residing in Lexington, he spends two days a week attending a spec- ial course near Roanoke. We have to admit that the other five days are also put to advantage. His class stand- ing and the many close friendships formed are sufficient evidence of that. Leaving here to enter business, we hope to hear reports of Pete ' s success, not only in a financial way but in many other fields where his pleasing personality will be cer- tain to gain him recognition.

Our great regret is that he was not with us longer. He has proven his ability as a student by conscientious labor. He has that priceless quality of getting great pleasure out of both work and play, without allowing either to interfere with the other. Whatever may be his plans, his fate, and his future, it is a foregone conclusion that his singleness of purpose and his perptetual good humor will always insure for him suc- cess along the highways and byways he may choose to travel.

If a man ' s station in life were judged by the number of friends he has at his disposal, Mel would have very few superiors, for he has that coveted ability of making and retaining friends wherever he goes. Mel came to us from the swamp infested territory of Louisiana in the Fall of 1921, with a remarkable and amiable dis- position. Since then, he has been a con- sistent B student, and his endeavors as a member of the Albert Sidney Crew have proven his worth as an athlete. Further, his marked personality has gained for him a band of loyal friends who regret his departure. Nuf said. If a man ' s College career predetermines his success in after- life, Tom ' s future happiness is assured. (S . ' t O C s VsU 9 D Sixty-five - HERBERT POLLACK New York City X r 0; Biological Society.

If you are ever feeling blue or lonesome, just look up Bob, and he will help you knock out the gloom with a well placed wise crack, His irrepressible good humor has won for him a host of friends and admirers. Bob came down from the Key- stone State in the Fall of 1922. after spend- mg two years at Dickinson College, Since that time, he has made an enviable record here as a scholar, and an all-round man on the Campus. His attainments and talents are too numerous to mention, and include everything from accordian-playing to being a literary genius and professional humorist, Bob intends to begin law next year, and we are sure that success awaits him as a barrister.

This Sewaneean came down from the wooded mountain after one year at the University of the South, and entered Washington and Lee the following Septem- ber, The continuance and conclusion of his academic pursuits here have been profitable to himself and most assuredly to those who have come to know him intimately, Scoop became immediately interested in Campus activities, and has contributed much to the Ring-lum Phi. Fortunately, his humor is two-edged, for he readily appreciates a joke on himself. His good nature and quiet stability along with his other qualities have assured him a place in our regard, and we will retain him in our memory after he has returned to the wilds of Mississippi to administrate his estate. :: =tr- Seoenly-two GEORGE COOLEY WILLCOX Saginaw, Michigan n K A; K B 4 ; Harry Lee Second Crew, ' 24. From the land of Henry Ford comes our boy, George. Although not exactly from Detroit, he is really a remarkably good car. He came to Washington and Lee in the Fall of 1921. and immediately began to show his ability as a star student, although he never seemed to spend much time study- ing. Finding six or seven tickets ' a term such a light burden, he began to look around for other adventures to occupy his time. As an athlete, he has exhibited his prow- ess as a member of the Harry Lee Boat Club. It has never occurred to his friends to wish him well, because his success has always been a thing assured. We delight in the fact that we have had the privilege of knowing a true Washington and Lee gentleman.

In fact. John Wisdom is the Washington and Lee student of literature par excellence. He has the extraordinary distinction of having in three years taken every English course in the College curriculum. And in this, his chosen field, the brilliant certitude of his grasp is rivaled only by the phenom- enal versatility of his reach. Drama, poetry, fiction, short-story — it makes no difference to this fount of Wisdom. We are assured of his place next year among the Intelligenzia of Harvard.

Gibson felt the lure of the time-tested traditionahsm and the eternal romanticism of Washington and Lee, and determined to avail himself of the opportunity of quaffing deep drafts of its limpid and crystalline waters. In addition to having acquitted himself with credit and honor in the intellectual arena. Gibson has wrought well on the forum and in publication work. And finest of all, in the character of Gibson Witherspoon we have seen epitomized and personified thos e ideals of honor, manliness and gentility which have always been the supreme glory of Washington and Lee. Can more be said of any man HERMAN JAMES WOMELDORF Lexington. Virginia Another Lexingtonian passes on to the Rolls of Honor, leaving behind him a record of constant and earnest scholarship, of devotion to the ideals of Washington and Lee and, best of all, a truly most likable personality. We cannot help but feel that he has more or less cheated us in living away from the Campus, several miles down the valley. while attending the University. Herman expects to enter some definite field of positive Christian work. Devotion to one ' s ideals, to one ' s noblest thoughts, brings about the greatest human good. And we feel assured that his zeal for the deeper things in life, coupled with his most genial good will, undoubtedly will carry him on to notable success. z a . o0 9 : Seventy-four WILLIAM LOUIS WOOLFOLK Owensboro, Kentucky I B K: Arcades: X TH; Valedictorian, ' 25; Vice-Presidenl Biological Society, ' 25, Secre- tary.

It was eminently fitting that his classmates should honor him with the valedictorian- ship in his Senior year, because his record is one of achievement.

Especially noteworthy is his work in the Department of Biology where he has dis- tinguished himself as an outstanding student of the subject, winning the scholar- ship there his second year. When Paul leaves Washington and Lee, to make his way among the uncertain destinies of this world, he will succeed, and in a manner which few have ability to do.

Cy intends to extend his activities from the social and academic to law. and we feel sure that success in this line will be as great as it has been for the past four years. As he goes into this new field, the sincere good wishes of his friends go with him. May Tucker Hall welcome him within its portals next year. Good luck, but not farewell.

It is seldom that his grades drop below an A, which is unusual for an engineering student.

He has been a dependable substitute on the football team, and the greatest char- acteristic of his work there is his fighting spirit.

Jim is one of those intrepid mortals who for four years has sounded the hidden terrors of the uncharted seas of engineering. For him. the mystic volt and the elusive ampere hold no secrets. For two years, our Jim attempted to combine football and laboratory, and lab won. Since then he has confined his athletic prowess to crew, and with marked success. Three years on the Harry Lee Crew, and the captaincy for two of them, show his ability to manipulate an oar. We, who know him. feel sure that when he rows in the great race of life, his fineness of character, his perseverance, and his un- questioned ability will all combine to aid him in reaching his ultimate goal.

He has also taken part in many outside activities. He has participated in athletics as a member of the Albert Sidney Crew, and will leave a large breach when he departs this year. Whatever may be the stability of the things that Frank may erect as an engineer for the world in the future, it is certain that the columns of friendship which he has built during his stay here will remain standing for all time.

Unfortunately, he chose the wrong one. but he soon dis- covered his error, and decided not only to enter Washington and Lee the next year but also to make Lexington his home. George early gave evidence of being a willing worker, and that his industry has been successful is eloquently attested by his certificate in mathematics. We feel no hesitancy in predicting that his geniality, his unfailing optimism, and the perseverance and determination with which he attacks a knotty pr oblem, will carry him far in his chosen profession.

John Marshall High School laid the foundation of his scholastic training ; Fishburne contributed his military bearing; Richmond University added a modicum of cavalier culture; and then.

He is one who makes a most favorable impression upon first acquaintance, even more so. afterwards. We venture to say that there is no one better known at Washington and Lee than Buddy. His reputation as a star first baseman on the Varsity has spread far and wide, and opposing teams have learned to respect highly his unusual fielding and hitting ability. As an athlete, consistent student, true and loyal friend, and hail fellow well met. we count ourselves truly fortunate in knowing Aylmer. Our earnest wish is that Texas may send us many more of his caliber. Eighty-four ' HERBERT M.

Santa came to Washington and Lee in 1922, and thus at last found what he had long hoped for in schools. During his three years at Newcomb Hall, he has been a diligent student. His aptness in preparations, however, has always left him ample time to indulge in all of the local pastimes; and the exceptionally great in- terest which he has manifested in athletics has often led him to accompany the Fight- mg Generals on their longest trips. The qualities of unselfishness and good nature have won for him an ever-increasing host of friends on the Campus, and his strong determination and self-reliance can only foretell future prosperity.

At Washington and Lee he has confined his efforts to football, and his two hundred pounds make him a good man in the Ime. While Louie is not one to regard books in the light of his best friends, still he has a seriousness of purpose and a realization of responsibility that speak well for his success in after life. One of his best qualities is his ability to make friends, and that quality causes him to leave Washington and Lee with a host of them on the Campus. i .

The origin of this name has been kept a deep, dark secret; therefore, do not expect to learn of it here. Those who have been associated with Tim. will know that he has done his share in upholding the many honored traditions of Washington and Lee; a fact which means that he is a gentleman and a true friend. Moreover, he has proved to be a hard worker in studies, student activities, and even in the discharge of social duties.

Counting his friends by scores, and his admirers by legions, he will not disappoint them. CHARLES SIDNEY HEILIG Salisbury, North Carolina r A: A K ' f. Words are inadequate to describe a character like Charhe. They can only hint at his extreme unselfishness, and will- ingness to do for others. Soon after he came to Washington and Lee. he was known as a quiet, unassuming gentleman, and as such his friends will remember him. In addition to that, he seems filled with initiative, and is always doing something worth while. Charlie missed most of his Sophomore year on account of illness, but this did not stump him the least. He attended the University of Virginia and the University of California Summer Schools, and insistently demanded his degree in the allotted four years. California must be the land of adventure, for many and weird are the tales he tells about the Land of Gold. . ■l . --r-- Ninety-three Ill EDWARD OLE HENDERSON St. Joseph, Missouri B B II; Baskeiball Squad.

Anyone selecting a school so far distant must have had a real purpose in view, and this quality. Chick has shown. Although not a bookworm, he has worked hard and taken advantage of the opportunities that have confronted him during his four College years. His notable athletic record of high-school days has been upheld by his work on the basketball floor, and were it not for a lame shoulder, he probably would have made a name for himself in the other fields of sport.

As Treasurer of the Junior Class and student par excellence he ranks as one of the leaders of his class. With a dash of wit, a flash of brilliance, and a determination to succeed, we feel assured of the final outcome. Ninety -four LOUIS NEWTON HOCK Roanoke, Virginia ATi); A K T: K B . What ' s to be is bound to be. With these words. Louis following in the foot- steps of his Brother Harry, chose Washing- ton and Lee for his Alma Mater. Previously an athlete of whom Roanoke College boasted, he centered his attention upon the difficult Commerce tickets. In the class room, an apt student: on the dance floor, the idol of every prom-trotter; he is to his friends, a big-hearted, good-natured fellow whose optimism and quick wit find a ready welcome. As he goes out into the business world, his many associates look forward to seeing his illustrious name in the Hall of Fame. For to one who always looks on the bright side of life, can the world deny success? JOSEPH McWHORTER HOLT Lewisburg. West Virginia K T: 4 ' B K; () A K; :l ' ; A K ' 1 ' : IV.

He has been termed the outstanding student of the Commerce School, and he merits that distinction. Not being satisfied with graduating in the A class alone, he has the honor of doing that in three years. Joe holds the Commerce Scholarship of the University this year. However, he finds time to do many things in addition to studying. His popularity among his classmates brought to him election to the Executive Committee, a position which he has filled most capably. If his career during the past three years can be taken as a sample of the future, Washington and Lee will be proud to num- ber Joe among its most prominent Alumni. _ s.9 5- Ninety-five Ill CHARLES LANE HOWARD New York City A XP; OAK; H .

A Georgia Cracker by birth, a New Yorker by migration, and a Virginian by preference. Lane completed the triangle by getting his College training at Washington and Lee. Undoubtedly the best distance- runner the South has seen in many years. Lane has been the first to cross the tape in every cross-country meet in which Wash- ington and Lee has entered for the past two and a half years. In 1923. he broke the record of every cross-country course on which he ran. Lane has also been a conscientious stu- dent and is well fitted for the Law which he plans to study at Michigan next year. Affable, genial and unassuming, we only hope that Lane ' s friends in his later life are as numerous as those of his College days. THOMAS HUBBARD Jacksonville. Florida Freshman Swimming: Team, ' 23.

After freezing for some four years at the Choate School. Tom decided that Wash- ington and Lee would be the place for him to finish his education. His athletic career was started as a swimmer on the Freshman team, but later he devoted all of his energy and ability to wrestling, and finally develop- ed into the best defensive man on the team. He expects to enter the hardware busi- ness, and we know that his dynamic per- sonality will win him a place in the front row in a very short time. Ninety- MARVIN FITZHUGH HUMMER Washington, D. C.

The world gives its unanimous respect to the man who gains a position of dignity m the eyes of others by work and ability. Hummer ' s enviable career at Washington and Lee is the result of this combination — so hard to defeat. Grades above the average prove that he is a fine student; two years of efficient service on the staff of the Ring-tum Phi establish his name in that field of Campus activity; but when Captain Dick Smith unhesitatingly makes the name of Marvin Hummer a byword, and his effici- ency a model for all student managers, we are sure that the title of Manager-Ejc- traordinary should be included in Walter Camp ' s All-American pick. ALBERT LAWRENCE HURST Chattanooga, Tennessee . Say when. Good enough, those words have all kinds of meanings, and they cover Al like a blanket. When he arrived in Lexington, Washington and Lee received a son to whom it will always point with pride, because it is certain that he will carry out into the business world his beaming and un- equaled personality which has made him loved by all who knew him during his stay here. Though small in stature, he makes up in other qualities, and is good enough to stand among the best. If the truth must be told. Al has received no small amount of education at Hollins. We are not critical, but probably jealous. All we can say is — carry on. Al, ' and you are certain to succeed in your every endeavor. er- Ninety-seven iii HURBERT ROGERS JENKINS Fayetteville.

The University of South Carolina claimed him for one year, but our hero ' s ambition knew no bounds, and so he came to Wash- ington and Lee in 1923. and his conquering march has not yet closed! Everybody knows Jenks. and we can truly say that he occupies an enviable place in our Campus life. His unfailing good humor and cheerful disposition have made for him many loyal friends. When he is graduated we will miss the familiar figure that can always be seen strolling down the College lanes during the terpsichorean frivolities with a lady upon his arm.

Don has held high positions on the Calyx. Minl . and the Press Club as well. His genial personality and attractive manner have made him popular with many.

To the Campus he has proved a veritable encyclo- pedia of dope, being second to none but the great Walter Camp in his uncanny ability to forecast athletic results. A prodigy at nineteen, Lefty has proved himself not only a brilliant student but also a very able journalist, having rendered distinctive service on the Press Club and all of the Campus publications. He has pursued the study of Commerce with characteristic ability and persistency, and with a genuine interest that forecasts a successful career in his profession. VERNON JOSEPH KREIENBAUM Whiteville, North Carolina Not until after spending a year at George- town, did Bill find his proper educational institution: and Georgetown ' s loss was our gain.

When he goes out to cope with the various fates of the world, the friends he leaves behind will go with him in spirit and wishes.

John, after receiving his preparatory training at the well-known Duval High School in Jacksonville, entered Washington and Lee in the Fall of 1921. We have in John an ideal Campus leader. This state- ment is well demonstrated by the list of honors and achievements which appear after his name. Besides social activities. John has diverted much time and attention to Track, having made the Varsity team for four successive years, John is popular with his classmates, which is shown by the fact that he is president of his class and also leader of the annual Senior Ball. He leaves us this year, either to enter Harvard Law School or to go into business. Whichever he chooses, success will in- evitably be his. v::: WALTER EARL LIMPERT Clarksburg, West Virginia AX A. Walter, after a four years ' growth of wings in Washington Irving High School, came to Washington and Lee in 1921, and proceeded with the developing process for four more years, easily emerging this year as a full-fledged business man. It is the opinion of all who know him that Levi could have been a great asset to the forensic world at Washington and Lee if he had only chosen to do so. His best subject is West Virginia, the State Beautiful ; and when he waxes eloquent, the listener does well to remove all valuable furniture to a safe point. In social life, also, he is a well- known figure, and rare indeed is the dance that does not find him in Old Doremus. We all wish him success.

Johnny is one of the most prominent, popular and prom- ising men of the Class of 1925. and as such he has no peer. It would be futile for us to enumerate all of his achievements. Suffice it to say that we put him up against all comers as a typical Washington and Lee man. Although he resembles a half pint, one must not be misled -good things come in small packages, ' tis said. We wish him success in whatever vocation he enters. Ill One Hundred One WILLIAM BAYLES MACK. JR. Brooklyn. New York i: AE: KB . The subject of this sketch requires no introduction to the Washington and Lee Campus, for not to know Billy is to argue yourself unknown. His ready wit and his winning smile have endeared him to a host of friends. So accustomed have we become to seeing him every September, that we can scarcely realize that he is to graduate this June, and leave us. In fact (ever optimistic), we are still hoping that he will decide to follow his father ' s pro- fession, and return next session to enter upon the study of Law. If he should, we do not hesitate to predict for him a spark- ling career. If not. we must bid him farewell, secure in the faith that success awaits him in any calling he may choose. lYj GEORGE FLEMING MAYNARD. JR. Clarksdale. Mississippi i; . K; ■!

George does not claim to be a shark in any one branch of College activity, but he has tried them all and acquitted himself with credit in each. Realizing that a thing worth doing, is worth doing well, he has shown by his accomplishments that he has carried his theories into practice. A social leader, one of the Troubadours ' most dependable men and. above all, a real man and friend — that is George. He numbers his friends by his acquaintances, and a prediction for the future could but include the best that life has to offer. A successful student, a genuine friend, and a natural gentleman of clean habits. George is the kind of man whose departure Washington and Lee most regrets. One Hundred Tuo THOMAS WORLEY MENEFEE.

Some are born with intellect, others are born with ability, but few are born with both; and yet Brown has each of these qualities. Thus, it is as easy for him to parse a Greek verb as it is to make a left- hand turn on the dance floor. Perhaps the most scintillating part of his College career is his splendid record in the Commerce School. During the time he has been here, he has participated in all the pleasures which the friendships and activi- ties of College life can yield, and at the same time has excelled in his studies. The business world must make room for another leader of men, for Brown belongs to that type, and he leaves us to take that position. BYRON CHAUNCEY MOHLER Mexico City. Mexico i; A K; A K f; W A ; C.

A veritable lion in the social affairs on the Campus, an all-round good fellow, and a good student, he is going to be missed by all. To know Babe is to like him. His pleasing personality has made for him many friends, and his determination and adapta- tion have made an enviable record in the Commerce School. Superior and exalting though his ability to make friends and good grades may be. it is as a man that he affects us. Babe possesses those sterling qualities that make for success, and we feel sure in our prophecy that whatever his career may be. we can count upon him as a leader. ill One Hundred Four GARY ANNAS MOOMAW.

His keen and analytical study of business problems has helped him to realize his ambition — a B.S. in the School of Gommerce.

Ed had an easy time with his classes, being known as one of Pop Coans sharks, and we feel that not a long time will elapse before there is another C.P.A. in the busi- ness world. Ed has not confined himself merely to class work, however, and is a familiar figure in Old Doremus on all social occasions.

In looking over the Class of 1923, one of our greatest regrets is that Duke has been with us but three short years, coming to us as a transfer from Bethel College. We say without hesitation that there is not a man on the Campus more generally liked and respected. Duke has. from the beginning, starred on the gridiron and the diamond, and has done so without neglect- ing his scholastic work. He has never for a moment lost sight of the goal set for himself — a degree in the School of Commerce. As a sterling athlete, consistent student, true and loyal friend, and in every sense of the word a real Southern gentleman, we count our- selves happy and fortunate, indeed, to have known Duke.

It is needless to say that Walter is a good mixer with both sexes (space prohibits details). We hate to see him leave the Campus, for his place at Washington and Lee is one which may not easily be filled.

Georgia 2 A E; A K i C. C; Troubadours, ' 22, ' 23, ' 24, ' 25, Vice-President Mandolin Club. ' 23. Possessed of a powerful personality and an ambition for dramatic as well as scholastic success. Stewart came to Washington and Lee four years ago. He leaves, having achieved both of the desired aims. It IS in the Troubadours that Stewart is mainly going to be missed, in addition to the loss of his smiling countenance on the Campus. It was in this dramatic organiza- tion that he was prominent in the footlights, and his shoes will be hard to fill. But we haven ' t even mentioned social activities. Here our sympathy is extended to the feminine sex. for his absence from Old Doremus will leave a conspicuous void, and one of God ' s gifts to women will be elsewhere. We all wish you luck. Stewart! e-.- : r MERRIL EDDY WILSON St. Augustine. Florida Swimming Team. ' 22. ' 23; Ring-turn Phi Staff. ' 25. And now we come to our friend. E Jdy. He hails from Florida (Saint Augustine, to be exact!, and is proud of it. You will find him numbered among the diligent students in the School of Commerce, and he expwcts to utilize in selling real estate the knowledge he has acquired here. Besides pursuing his studies. Exldy has had time to make a host of friends. Ac- commodating, cheerful, ready to argue, and possessing a friendly f ersonality. these qualities have caused him to be well liked. When it comes to having ways with the women. Eddy is a man among men. We have been glad to have him with us, and as he goes out into the world, his class- mates and his friends join in wishing him every success. One Hundred Fourteen INTERMEDIATE L aw III OFFICERS B. G.

MULLINIX RESUME The question, Resolved, That the Constitution of the United States should be so amended as to require a two-thirds vote of the Supreme Court in declaring an act of Congress unconstitutional, seemed to occupy the limelight in the subjects selected for debates at Washington and Lee this winter. This subject was first debated by the generals against Trinity College at Durham, N. C, under the Oxford plan of debate. This same subject was again used when Syracuse came to Lexington and revenged their defeat of last year by a two-to-one decision over our debaters. Still remaining on our schedule is a return meet with Trinity College, now Duke University, and the annual Triangular Debate held between Johns Hopkins Uni- versity, University of North Carloina, and Washington and Lee. The subject to be debated by these universities this year is some phase of the child labor problem; and the date, while not definitely settled, has been unofficially announced as April 30th. This triangular debate has always been looked upon by the respective universities as one of their most important annual forensic contests, and it is conceded that Wash- ington and Lee will use such veterans as Gould, Lowry, Masinter, Roach, and Hamilton, to compete against these universities to determine the debating suprem- acy of the South.

Wilkinson One Hundred Sixty-six lii The Glee Club The Glee Club is just another proof of the importance of the Troubadours on the Campus. Although organized as a unit of the body, the Glee Club has its own organization, and its trips are independent of those taken by the Troubadours. Perhaps there is no unit of the dramatic organization where competition is as keen as in the Glee Club. Lack of time prevented the realization of all but two of the five trips planned for the Glee Club this year. Their first trip was made to Sweet Briar on November 22d, where they were enthusiastically received. Here Joe Clay Roberts sang him- self into the hearts of the members of the Student Body. The dramatic club, Paint and Patches, was the hostess to a dinner just preceding the concert and to an informal dance afterwards. The second concert was given atSouthern Seminary onDecember 5th. Leathem and Roberts were the favorites. THE PROGRAM Orchestra Glee Club J. C. Roberts R. C. Leathem Selection ....

Glee Club and Orchestra One Hundred Sixty-eight egians The Southern Collegians, organized as a unit of the Troubadours in December, 1923, has since risen to a height of prominence and favoritism seldom attained and enjoyed by a Collegiate orchestra playing in the amateur class. Within the past year the Collegians have had a phenomenal rise in the world of jazz music. On the Campus they are the favorite syncopation-producers at the numerous informals and fraternity dansants. Their reputation throughout the States of Virginia and West Virginia is of such wide extent that they are always in great demand wherever there is a desire for an orchestra of high merit. Their trips to near-by towns and prep schools have been numerous during the past session and they have played their way into the hearts of dance-lovers. But their reputation is not limited to the immediate vicinity, for they have attained such a national reputation as to influence the signing of a contract for the coming summer with the Cunard Steamship Company for the passage to Europe, playing on the ships of the company. While in Europe they will fill a two-weeks ' engagement at Keiley ' s Cabaret, one of the largest and most exclusive of French- American cafes in Paris, returning to America the latter part of the summer. In spite of their popularity, the Southern Collegians have not yet reached the zenith of their fame. They are destined to enjoy a national reputation that is worthy of the high quality of their music and of the pride of the University they represent. IK One Hundred Sixty-nine Seven Keys to Baldpate The Troubadours presented George M.Cohan ' s melodramatic farce, the Seven Keys to Baldpate, in two acts with a prologue and epilogue, for their Thanks- giving Show at the New Theater on November 29th. The show was presented during the Thanksgiving dances to a large audience. The members of the cast handled their parts with skill and displayed technique in their interpretations. There were four female and eleven male characters, many of whom were new to the art, but all of whom portrayed veteran skill. W. W. Donnally, Jr., in the leading male role of William Hallowell Magree, the author of whose wager of five thousand dollars led him through many exciting experiences. C. W. Meadows again justified his previous histrionic laurels in the difficult role of the leading female character, Mary Norton. George Harsh, Jr., as Mrs. Quimby and J. M. Boyd as Lou Max, deserve special mention because of their splendid interpretations. C. F. Stuart skillfully handled the difficult role of Peter, the Hermit. The production was staged under the direction of Joe Clay Roberts, assisted by S. P. Walker and J. T. Martin. The settings were under the supervision of Jairus Collins, Jr. One Hundred Seventy THE CAST Elijah Quimby Mrs. Quimby William Hallowell Magree John Bland Mary Norton Mrs. Rhodes Peter, the Hermit .

Allison Scenes; Time: Office of Baldpate Inn The Present One Hundred Seventy-one An Historical Sketch The Troubadours was founded in the fall quarter of 1919 by three men keenly interested in College dramatics. Through the efforts of these men, Dr. J. L. Howe, Ted Schultz, and V. E. Kemp, a Constitution was drawn up, officers elected, and the organization started on its way. It was organized purely for the students, and consisted of the combined Dramatic Club. Glee Club, Mandolin Club and the Orchestra. Preparations were at once made for the presentation of the premier performance and, two months after its founding. The Troubadours made its debut with a semi- vaudeville entertainment which was well received. Its rapid growth and popularity can easily be seen by its widespread reputation, not only on the Campus of Wash- ington and Lee, but throughout the South. Since its organization six years ago. The Troubadours have presented two shows a year — a play during Thanksgiving and a musical comedy during Easter. It has been the custom of The Troubadours to send the Easter Show on the road for a week ' s trip into North Carolina and West Virginia. However, the show this year was not presented outside of Lexington, due to the unavoidable f .nancial reverses of last year. This, however, has been cleared up and The Troubadours have plans for a trip next year, the itinerary of which will include three States. One Hundred Seventy-two The Troubadors of Washington and Lee University Presents ADAM AND EVA by Guy Bolton and George Middleton With the three-act comedy, Adam and Eva, The Troubadours scored a decided success at the New Theater, April 14th. Every member of the cast handled his part with excellent skill, making it difficult to pick any individual star. As amateurs the members of the cast showed unusual ability, the interpretation of the parts at times bordering on those traits attributed only to professionals. George Harsh, Jr., who took the leading male role of James King, wealthy father of a large family whose extravagance was very irritating to him, displayed unusual technique in his interpretation of the part. T. H. Fausett in the difficult role of Horace Pilgrim, V. A. Holloman as Adam Smith, and F. C. Adams as Eva, were all above the average in their stage poise and acting. The two stage settings were especially created for The Troubadours by the H. P. Knight Scenic Studios of New York. This is the first production in which The Troubadours had especially painted scenery and it added much to the final effect of the play. The Troubadours have been the recipients of unstinted congratulations and praise for the success of the play. Rich material was found among the new men who showed much ability in the art of acting.

Graduate Manager FOREST FLETCHER Athletics, 1924-25 Athletics at Washington and Lee experienced a most successful year in 1924-25 in practically all branches of sports. The record of the football team was particular- ly outstanding, and this was in spite of the fact that the schedule played was one of the hardest undertaken in recent years. The success of the team led to an even harder schedule being carded for next year, and the White and Blue stock is soaring. In the minor sports, wrestling was outstanding, and a highly successful season added to the prestige of the White and Blue matmen. The defeat of the Army was especially gratifying in view of the fact that they had not previously lost a match. The completion of the stadium so as to make it possible for athletic contests to be staged there was something long hoped for by those most interested in athletics at Washington and Lee. All of the home football games were played there as well as nearly all of those of baseball. While the structure is not as yet carried to its ultimate stage, it is capable of seating 3,000 people and makes more big home games possible. As there is demand, and as the funds are available, it will be enlarged, and it is expected to become one of the most modern of its kind. There are now two baseball fields, making possible the staging of Varsity and Freshman contests at the same time. As yet, track needs have not been cared for in the new stadium, but a well-drained cinder track is in process of construction, and will add materially to the athletic equipment. All of the old coaches were in charge of their respective squads again this year, with the exception of basketball, where Eddie Cameron had charge. Jimmy DeHart was at the helm in football. Forest Fletcher in track, and Dick Smith in baseball. Coaches Brett and Twombley again had charge of the minor sports, and Eddie Parks Davis piloted the Freshman football team. All of the coaches turned out teams of which every Washington and Lee man may rightfully be proud, and it only serves to emphasize what can be done by a large and efficient coaching staff. Ill One Hundred Seventy-nine The Southern Conference rules have now become an integral part of the Washington and Lee athletic system, and its rigid requirements are recognized as a great factor in causing the rightful recognition of southern athletics in other circles. This year Washington and Lee acted as hosts for the first time for a South- ern Conference contest, when the annual cross-country meet was held here. It is hoped that with added facilities more such meets will be held here. The second annual All-Virginia High and Prep School Basketball Tournament was again carried out successfully in the Doremus gymnasium, and is now recog- nized as being an established thing and not merely a visionary ideal. While the success of last year ' s tournament might have been merely momentary, the one this year conclusively showed that it is here to stay. Nineteen schools were here on March 5th, 6th, and 7th, from all parts of the State, and the interest that they themselves showed, proves that there is a demand for the tournament from outside quarters as well as locally. Many appropriate prizes and trophies were given, and undoubtedly many boys were introduced to Washington and Lee and stimulated to enter College, besides the fulfillment of the other purpose of the tournament — that of stimulating schoolboy basketball. The bright record of athletics this year and the schedules for the coming year, along with the carrying out of a definite foward building policy, causes every supporter of the White and Blue to take a renewed interest, and to rightfully feel that Washington and Lee athletics are steadily improving.

Six victories out of ten games played was the record of the Big Blue team, four of these coming from Southern Conference teams — Maryland, Kentucky, Virgmia, and North Carolina State. Roanoke College and Citadel were also in the defeated list, while Florida. West Virginia, and Wake Forest made the Big Blue team take the smaller end of the score. A scoreless contest was played with V. P. 1. At the end of the season the Generals were placed third among the twenty-two Southern Conference teams. Head Coach Jimmy DeHart, who was in charge for the third consecutive year, assisted by Dick Smith, Manager of Athletics, was fortunate in having tea monogram men back with which to start the season. With these men for a nucleus and with the usual number of Scrubs and Fresh- men from the former season, a capable outfit was welded together. The problem of Coach DeHart was to fill the vacancies left by the graduation of a guard, the center, and two halfbacks. Eddie Cameron, Captain of the 1923 Generals, and Tex Tilson. who captained this year ' s aggregation, deserve special mention for their work. Playing his last year for the White and Blue. Cameron ended his football career in a blaze of glory by scoring 96 points during the season, being only surpassed by Brenkert of Rutgers who scored 100. The two men were tied in the number of touchdowns, each having 16. Tex Tilson turned in a season of brilliant work at tackle and was fittingly rewarded by Walter Camp by being given honorable mention in his annual All-American selection. Two championships were won by the 1924 Generals. One was the leadership of the South Atlantic division, and the other the championship of the Big Four of Virginia. Both titles were won decisively. Opening the season against Roanoke College on September 27th. the Generals severely drubbed the Maroons by a 34-0 score. Eddie Cameron ' s sensational line-plunging proved to be a feature of the game, and he made 4 of the 5 touchdowns. Several spectacular passes were com- pleted by Palmer and Wilson. This was the first game to be played in the new Wilson Field Stadium. Kay Thomas kicked four goals after touchdown. Maryland was crushed the next Saturday in Washington. D, C by the score of 19-7. From the outset of the game the Generals clearly showed superiority. Palmer gained 97 yards around the Old Liners ' flanks, and Eddie Cameron added 68 to his team ' s total. Maryland made their lone score when one of Rauber ' s punts was blocked and recovered behind the goal line. Hawkins. Thomas, and Budnick were the stars on the defense in this game, while Wilson and Palmer kept up their fine passing combination. One Hundred Eighty-five On October I I th. the Generals had an off day and the Wake Forest Demon Deacons won on Wilson Field by a 10-8 count. The Big Blue team started off with a rush, scoring a touchdown in the first few minutes of play. Pegano. the star of the Deacons, later picked up a fumbled punt and ran 35 yards for a marker. Rackley sewed up the game with a 30-yard drop-kick. Washington and Lee ' s remaining 2 points came when Kay Thomas tackled a Wake Forest man behind his own goal line. The second conference victory was won the following week when the University of Kentucky took the short end of a 10-7 count. In this game, Henry Wilson intercepted a pass and ran 40 yards for a touchdown, while Dawson gave his team the necessary 3 points for victory with a beautiful 30-yard drop-kick. Kentucky scored on recovering a blocked punt. Captain Tex Tilson . Daves, Stemmons, and Thomas played the best on the defense, and Henry Wilson shone on the offense. In Lynchburg, on October 25th. the Generals were held to a scoreless tie by the V. P. I. Gobblers. Don Rutherford. V. P. 1. star failed in his five attempts at field goals, while Dawson ' s lone attempt also met disaster Duke Perry was in the limelight with some wonderful punting while Bo McMillan was a mainstay of the team on the defense and proved a thorn in the Tech- men ' s side. Maynard Holt was a tower of strength in the line. The ancient rival, the University of Virginia, was the next victim of the Generals by a 20-7 score. Virginia scored a touchdown in the first few minutes of play, but after that were unable to get through the White and Blue line. A pass. Wilson to McMillan, scored again in the third quarter. In this game, Bo proved to be the outstanding figure. The Citadel was next met. and the South Carolinians succumbed 32-7. Eddie Cameron making 4 of the 5 touchdowns against the visitors. Citadel scored in the fourth quarter on a forward pass against the Scrubs who were then playing. Tilson, Budnick, and Rauber were in the limelight for the White and Blue. The Generals held the powerful West Virginia Mountaineers to a lone touchdown in their annual clash in Charleston, W. Va.. before a crowd of 13,000. The game was played in a sea of mud. The Mountaineers were held scoreless for 58 minutes, but a fresh quarterback then carried the ball over after a blocked punt. The entire line of the Generals played sterling ball, as they stopped the hard-plunging backs of West Virginia time after time. Rauber ' s punting was a feature of the game. On Thanksgiving Day the Big Blue team had an easy time with the North Carolina State Wolfpack, winning from them by the overwhelming score of 34-0. Eddie Cameron scored 3 of the Generals ' 5 touchdowns. The feature of the game was probably the passing game displayed by the wearers of the White and Blue. Stemmons. Daves. Hawkins, and Holt played well in the line, while Wilson, McMillan, and Cameron were best on offense. In the last game of the year, a post-season clash with the University of Florida on December 6th in Jacksonville, the Generals lost their first Conference game in two years when they went down in glorious defeat by the score of 16-6. Newton, captain and star halfback of the Gaters. proved to be the nemesis of the White and Blue, his punting averaging 58 yards. Cameron crashed through the ' Gator line in the second period for Washington and Lee ' s only tally. Sultry weather probably played a big part in the defeat of the Generals. One Hundred Eighty-six 924 Generals W. E. TILSON Captain, Tacl le Prep School: Greenbrier Military School. Weight, 176; Height. 5 ft. II I, in.: Age. 22. Tilson ' s work this year was better than ever before, which in the light of his past brilliant performances leaves nothing to be desired. He is a tackle par excellence, a man impervious to injury, a fighter who never stops as long as he can fight and see. and he has never taken time out for an injury. He has consistently been rated as one of the best linesmen in the South, and this year was given mention in Walter Camp ' s selection. His return next year will greatly strengthen the team. J. K. THOMAS Captain-elect, End Prep School: Charleston iW. Va. i High School. Weight. 160; Height. 5 ft. 10 ' j in.; Age. 23. Although a little light for a terminal position. Thomas fighting spirit more than makes up for his lack of weight. He is extremely fast, a sure tackier, and rare indeed are the plays that gain around his end of the line. One of his specialties is getting down under punts, and the safety man who can elude him must be a side-stepping artist. His consistent work was a feature of every game and won him his well-deserved captaincy for next year. E. M. CAMERON Fullback Prep School: Culver Military Academy. Weight. 176; Height. 5 ft. 1 I ' j in.; Age. 22. This year marked the close of the football career of Edd career that placed him foremost among the football players of the South and classed him as one of the greatest backfield men ever turned out at Washington and Lee. This year, exceeded by only one man in the United States in the matter of points scored. Eddie is a line-plunger to be rarely excelled. At the most critical times, when a yard or so was needed, he could always be relied upon. F4is stellar performance made his All-Southern honors doubly deserved. M. I. BUDNICK Guard Prep School: Fishburne Military School. Weight, 190; Height. 5 ft. 9 in.; Age. 20. Budnick, playing his second year on the Varsity, put up a steady dependable game at guard. Although in a line position, he made himself into a specialist in the art of breaking up passes and thereby materially aided in the Generals ' defense. One of his best games was played in Wash- ington against the University of Maryland. He should reach the apex of his development next fall. Ill II! One Hundred Eighty-seven R. I. DAVES End Prep School; Morgan (Tenn. ) School. Weight, 170: Height. 6 ft.: Age, 23. Daves is a man who always plays a dependable game, and this year, his second on the Varsity, proved it by the unbroken row of good games that he played. He is a highly-developed smasher of interference, fast, and a deadly tackier. His lighting spirit and his imperviousness to injury make him additionally valuable, and next year he should prove to be a tower of strength on the line. A. R. HAWKINS Cenler Prep School: Petersburg (Va.) High School. Weight, 165: Height, 6 ft.: Age. 20. The one thing more than anything else that makes Red ' s work stand out conspicuously in the line is his never-ending fight. Always lighter than his opposing player, he never fails to put up a good account of himself, and his steady performance featured every game. He gained his position by hard work, and by virtue of the same quality, kept it. He is eligible for another year of football, and his return would add much to the team. H, F. McMillan Fullback. Prep School: McCallie (Tenn.) School. Weight, 155: Height, 5 ft. 8 in.: Age, 20. This diminutive back, for his third year on the Varsity, proved his worth time and again last year. Although light, he is hard to stop through the line and was at his best in an open field. At receiving passes, Bo has few equals, and time and again chalked up long gains for the White and Blue on the receiving end. As a defensive man, he was equally valuable and proved to be one of the best tacklers on the team. He will be missed next year. J. T. McVAY Quarterback. Prep School: Huntington (W. Va. I High School. Weight, 155: Height. 5 ft. 8 in.: Age. 22. Johnny ' s experience and excellent football knowledge make him a quarter who seems to sense the right thing to do at the right time. Every minute he was in the game he was trying to inspire and lead the team on. sometimes over seemingly hopless barriers. He was a hard man to stop around ends, and also plunged the line well for a back of his weight. His loss will be keenly felt next fall. One Hundred Eighty-eight CALYX 1925 H. M. WILSON Quarterbacl Prep School: Owenboro iKy.) High Scho Weight. 155: Height. 5 ft. 8}2 in.: Age. 20. Henry was shifted from half to quarter this year and his work was outstanding throughout the entire season. He was one of the mainstays of the team, and his steadiness and coolness made him invaluable m places here his decisions meant either defeat or victory. He carried the ball threw passes with unfailing accuracy, was a good defensive man. and demonstrated his generalship staisfactorily in every encounter. His best game was in his home State against Kentucky where he scored the touch- down which meant victory for the White and Blue. He will return next year.  C. E. VAN HORN ••■  Center and End Prep School: Allegheny (Pittsburgh. Pa.) High School. Weight. 170: Height. 6 ft. 2 in.: Age. 23. Van. of yearling fame last year, was out of the game a month at the start of the season because of a broken jaw. Upon his return he was shifted from center to end and until the close of the season alternated between the two positions. He was one of the fastest men on the team, and got under punts well. His best game was against V. P. I., by virtue of which the coach of that team placed him on his South-Atlantic selection at center. R. M. HOLT Guard Prep School: Culver Military Academy. Weight. 185: Height. 5 ft. 1 I in.: Age. 19. Maynard, in his first year of Varsity competition, made himself into a guard of the first order. He was reliable, not easily hurt, and was in the midst of every play near his territory. He was a hard man for opposing guards and tackles to handle, and his specialty was in breaking through the line and smearing plays. All through the South he was universally mention- ed as one of the outstanding linesmen of the season. He played a consistent game throughout the fall. H. A. DAWSON Halfback Prep School: Western (Washington. D. C. ) High School. Weight. 175: Height. 5 ft. 10 in.: Age. 22. Harry Dawson is a back who has worked hard for his Varsity mono- gram. A line-plunger of no mean ability, and a good defensive man. yet it IS in his drop-kicking that his strength lies. When the margin of victory depends on a few points, it is then that Harry gets his chance, and he has always given the best account of himself. He rose to the occasion against Kentucky, and his beautiful 30-yard boot won the game for the White and Blue. One Hundred Eighty-nine L. J. RAUBER Halfback Prep School: Central (Washington, D. C.) High School. Weight, 170; Height, 5 ft. 10 in.; Age. 20. Ty. with his consistent punting, was one of the main cogs in the White and Blue defensive machine. As captain of the yearlings last year, he proved beyond a doubt his right to wear the Varsity uniform. His specialty was in backing up the line, although he was adept at catchmg passes and could buck the line when occasion demanded. His punting was the feature of the West Virginia game, although the field was covered with mud. He will return next year. W. W. PALMER Halfback Prep School: San Antonio I Texas) Academy. Weight, 155; Height. 5 ft. 8 in.; Age, 20. Mike. a broken field running artist, was the terror of opposing ends. A little light to plunge the line, he more than made up for it with his sweep- ing end runs. Palmer was on the receiving end of the Wilson-Palmer passing combination, and accounted for many yards in that fashion. He was extremely hard to tackle in the open field, and clearly demonstrated this against Maryland in Washington, when he gained 97 yards around their flanks. This is his first year on the Varsity. W. V. PERRY Fullback Prep School: Castle Heights (Tenn.) Military Academy. Weight. 170; Height. 6 ft. 2 in.; Age, 21. Duke, a substitute last year, broke into the limelight early this year with some wonderful punting against V. P. 1. when Rauber had to leave the game. His long spirals probably had much to do with keeping that contest a scoreless tie. Not only could Duke punt, but he was a powerful driving back. He is eligible for next years team. L. S. STEMMONS Tackle Prep School: Dallas (Texas! High School. Weight. 190; Height, 6 ft.; Age, 20. Stemmons this year showed to advantage the experience he received last fall, and played a hard and steady game the entire season. His con- sistent defensive work put him in the midst of every play, and his ability to break through the opponent ' s line aided the White and Blue materially. His best games were against Kentucky and Carolina State, where time and again he stopped opposing backs. He will add much to the team next year. One Hundred Ninety ill Freshman Football, I 924 E. P.

J, DORSEY D. H. BROWN Manager One Hundred Ninety-five The 1 925 Season With a record of eight victories and only five defeats, the 1925 season cannot be called other than successful. Another former captain and student coach was secured in the person of Eddie Cameron, brilliant all-round ath- lete, who stepped into the place filled last year by K. E. Hines. With three letter-men as a nucleus, he succeeded in building up a capable White and Blue aggregation. The season opened with one of the most thrilling and undoubtedly one of the hardest-fought games ever played on the home floor, when Wake Forest was re- turned the victors by a 25-23 count. It was a nip-and- tuck affair from start to finish, and the victory for the Demon Deacons was only decided at the last moment. The visitors presented a smooth floor outfit, and won by virtue of consistent work. Lynchburg College was the first victim of the Gen- erals, going down by the score of 36-20 on the home floor. The next game was a well-deserved victory over the Techmen of V. P. I. The Gobblers could not cope with the Generals ' strong offense, and the final count was 26-18. The University of Kentucky won a hectic battle at Lexington, Ky., with both teams off form. The Generals missed many easy shots ordinarily converted into points, and not a man on the team could ge t started. Returning to Charleston, W. Va., they seemed to re- cover from their slump, and West Virginia University was defeated, 37-32. The outstanding feature of the game was the performance of Captain Lake who, play- ing for the first time for Washington and Lee in his home town, made 23 of his team ' s total. Then came two defeats in a row, one being administered at Lexington by the North Carolina University outfit, and the other at the hands of Virginia at Charlottesville. Pulling themselves out of the threatened slump, the Generals showed a complete reversal of form in their next five games, and made every start a victory, On February 12th, Hampden-Sidney was the victim of a 42-6 on- slaught, and a few days later V. P. I. was forced to take the short end of another game, their second defeat of the season, to the score of 27-20. The game was played at Blacksburg. One Hundred Ninety-six i CALYX 192 Roanoke and Davidson were found to offer no seri- ous opposition, the games resulting in victories for the White and Blue, 46-2 I and 33-18, respectively. Leaving for the Southern Conference Tournament at Atlanta, the Generals paused long enough to defeat the strong N. C. U. team on their home f]oor, one of the real upsets of the season, as Carolina was recognized as a favorite for the Southern title. Supporters of the White and Blue were in high hopes of a great showing in the tournament, more especially because of the win over Carolina, but their expectations were shattered when the Generals went down in their first tournament encounter before Tulane, 27-20. Prospects loom bright for next year, with five letter- men back, and some likely candidates from the Fresh- man quint. Three of this year ' s team are wearing the coveted trident for the first time, and with experience behind them should shape into a strong, smooth-working quintet, capable of serious opposition on any floor.

Last year it was rather a visionary thing, and success was doubtful, but the reception accorded this year ' s tournament held March 5th. 6th. and 7th. removed all doubts about it being only a temporary event. This year, there were eighteen teams entered in the contest and. as before, they were quartered in the various fraternity houses where they were entertained. At the close of the tourney a buffet supper was given to the entrants in the Uni- versity Dining Hall, at which time the several awards were made and the personnel of the All-State team announced. The awards made were much the same as last year, with a regulation-size silver basketball being given to the winners along with miniature gold basketballs for the team and coach, while the runners-up received a half-size silver basketball and miniature silver balls. Loving cups were given to the best all-round player, the high score man in a single game, and the best foul shooter. Members of the first All-State team received gold medals. In the semifinals. Staunton Military Academy found a strong foe in Augusta Military Academy, winning out by the score of 21-16. The game was closer than the score would indicate, and was hard and cleanly fought throughout. It was the One Hundred Ninety-nine .- u first meeting of the two schools in any branch of sport in four years, and the spirit of rivalry ran high. The victory gave S. M. A. the championship of the prep school division and the right to meet the winners in the high school class. Jefferson High School of Roanoke won the championship of the high school class by defeating the Bristol High outfit by a count of 42-1 7. The smooth passing of the winners proved too much for the Virginia team, although it was an interesting battle all the way. The last game of the tournament was an exhibition of the finest brand of basketball. It was in doubt until the last whistle, and both teams fought desperate- ly, the one to hold its slight lead, the other to break it down. Although both teams were out to win, sportsmanship of the highest type was displayed by each. The superior stamina of the cadets proved to be the deciding factor, and the game ended with them on the long end of a 24-17 score. Each team had a large delegation of supporters to see the championship decided, and a feature of the contest was the loyal encouragement and backing of each group. The high schools taking part were: John Marshall, South Boston, Roanoke, Bristol, Staunton, Suffolk, Lexington, Danville, and Altavista. The prep schools were: Staunton Military Academy, Randolph-Macon Academy (Front Royal), Randolph-Macon Academy (Bedford), Fishbourne Military School, Chatham Training School, Benedictine, Massanutten Military Academy, Christ Church School, and Augusta Military Academy. The tournament was held under the auspices of the Athletic Association, and was sponsored by the Monogram Club. It was under the direct supervision of Graduate Manager of Athletics, R. A. Smith, and to him and his assistants, as well as to the Student Body for its whole-hearted support, must the credit for its success be given. THE ALL-STATE TEAM LooNEY, Roanoke High School.

Goodrich C. J. Allison HARRY CLEMMER Manager Two Hundred Three The 1 924 Season Although the 1924 Washington and Lee Baseball team started the year with an abundance of letter-men, early signs of a successful season proved to be somewhat misleading. There was one place in the infield left vacant by the loss of ' ' Monk Mattox at shortstop, and the catcher ' s berth was also open. The pitching staff suffered the heaviest loss, and it was the problem of Coach Dick Smith, in charge of the squad for the second year, to fill these places. The greatest weakness seemed to be with the bat. The men hit the ball hard, but were unable to connect for clean hits, and had difficulty in hitting in the pinches. Lindberg ' s work was the outstanding feature of the season, both at bat and on the mound. He pitched a steady, brainy game and. contrary to the common case, was one of the leading hitters on the nine. His work was rewarded with the captaincy for 1925. Buddy Ayl- Lindberg mer at the initial sack also played stellar ball throughout Caplain-elecl the season. He fielded brilliantly and was a consistent hitter. Not the least of his good qualities was his fight- ing spirit. Tommy Seehorn at the hot corner, playing his first year of Varsity Baseball, proved to be the lead- ing hitter on the team, and played a good game in the field. Many of his hits were of the extra base variety. The season started off with a row of defeats, caused mainly by the inability of the men to hit cleanly. Cor- nell ushered in the sport on April 3d with a 5-2 victory. The game was featured by the beautiful pitching of Milligan for the visitors and that of Lindberg and Perry for the home team. Another contest played with them on the following day resulted in a slugging match, with the Generals com ing out on the short end of a 10-11 score. Seehorn con- tributed a triple in the way of batting, while Dawson hit the first home run of the season. Richmond Uni- Tivo Hundred Four versity again proved a Nemesis and took the Generals ' measure by the count of 7-4. The entire Washington and Lee team was off form. However, Dawson and Cap- tain Switzer played good ball. The next game was a hard-lost battle to Virginia, 3-0. It was a pitchers ' battle between Lindberg and Maphis, with the latter losing out because of bunched hits. The two features of the game, according to the Richmond-Times Dispatch. were the fielding of Gwaltney and Dawson. Lehigh then took a close battle by the score of 2-1. Johns Hopkins proved to be the first victims of the year, going down to defeat by the score of 18-4. The entire team played stellar ball, and hit well. The next contest was with North Carolina University, and was featured by home runs and the fielding of the Carolinians. Five circuit clouts were garnered in the course of the fray, and of them Seehornand Dawson tallied for Washington and Lee. Lindberg pitched a pretty game with the excep- tion of the first and seventh innings, and the final score was in favor of the Tar Heels, 9-5. Another Carolina institution then took the measure of the Generals when N. C. State took a poorly-played contest by the count of 12-2. The weakness of the Generals with the stick was apparent. Following this, the Blue and White started on their annual Northern trip, and the same jinx that had pur- sued them throughout the season followed them. In the first game with the University of Maryland, the Old Liners hit the ball hard and won the verdict, 13-2. The Generals were held scoreless until the ninth inning, when Schrider, pitching for Maryland, weakened to the extent of two runs. Woolwine, Perry, and Hickam all faced the Marylanders, but the offerings of all three were met with success. The next game was a nip-and-tuck, ten- inning affair with Catholic University in Washington, D. C. Both sides hit the pill hard, but again bunched hits proved too much for the Blue and White and the final score read in favor of their opponents, 10-9. t rr v Hawkins Second Base f ' f-y mA. Two Hundred Five In the following game, the Generals showed decided improvement, and with superb pitching by Lindberg and timely hitting, emerged victorious over the Navy. 7-2. Switzer fielded brilliantly and McMillan caught a good game. In their fourth game of the trip, the jinx returned and Yale won at New Haven in a loosely- played game. 10-3. Errors by the Blue and White bat- tery accounted for six of the runs of the Old Eli nine. In the last game on the road. Lindberg was in rare form and Fordham went down in defeat, 6-3. A 4-run lead in the first inning, piled up by the Blue and White nine, proved too much for the Northerners. Seehorn materially aided in the scoring when he tripled with the bases full. In the last game of the season, Washington and Lee again showed a complete reversal of form and took a well-earned victory from Virginia on Wilson Field by the score of 4-2. It was a close and interesting battle throughout and at no time was it sewed up for either side. Lindberg pitched masterful ball, and one of the features of the contest was a beautiful double steal, engineered by McMillan and Switzer.

MITCHELL Manager Two Hundred Eleven Track, 1924 Closing the season by winning third place in the Northern Division of the Southern Conference Meet held at Charlottesville, May 10th, the Washington and Lee Track team succeeded in establishing one of its finest records in recent years. It was a fitting climax to a season in which four victories were scored in dual meets and no defeats experienced. There were no out- standing stars on the team, but it was a well balanced aggregation and showed itself to be one of the strongest teams in the South. Much credit for the successful sea- son must go to Coach Fletcher. Taking the remains of a mediocre Varsity of last year with its one star absent, and developing it as he did is nothing short of a marvel. It should be noted that over half of the personnel of this year ' s team won their monograms for the first time. Long before the opening of the season. Coach Fletcher had his charges conditioning themselves for the grind of the schedule. A longer period of training than usual was indulged in, and the opening meet of the season found them in the proverbial pink of condition. The University of Richmond provided the first oppo- sition for the 1 924 Generals on April 1 2th in a dual meet held in Richmond. Although the meet was interesting throughout, the results were never in doubt, and the Generals scored an easy victory, 78-48. Among those making first places for Washington and Lee were Howard in the two-mile, Davis in the 120-yard high hurdles, Simmons in the 220 low hurdles, Mc- Cartney in the broad jump, Lewis in the shot-put and discus, and Harrell in the javelin throw. Biddle and Norman tied for first in the high jump, and Norman and McCartney also ended in a deadlock for first honors in the pole vault. Richmond scored 38 points to the Gen- erals 34 in the running events, but the field events proved to be the deciding factor of the meet, with Wash- ington and Lee piling up a total of 44 points to Rich- mond s 10. One of the features of the meet was the performance of Harrell. He had been serving in the capacity of Junior Manager of Track and had taken an unusual interest in the javelin throw. While helping the Varsity men in their practice by throwing the javelin back to them, he became unusually proficient. Soon he was able to hurl it farther than they, and he decided to pay his own expenses and enter the Richmond meet. Needless to say. his expenses were paid to all other meets, and he proved a consistent star. Two Hundred Twelve The next opponents of the Generals were met at Raleigh, N. C, when the N. C. State team was defeated by the count of 72-34. In this meet, the tables were turned and the running events decided the day for Washington and Lee. North Carolina ' s points were equally divided between the two classes, while the Generals scored 27 points in the field events and 45 in the runs. Davis won first place in both the high and low hurdles, while others winning first places were Jenkins. Hill, Howard, and Harrell. In this meet, Harrell set a new record for the javelin throw. On April 28th. the first home meet of the season was held with Davidson College giving the opposition. The Generals experienced with the North Carolinians, and the meet ended with Washington and Lee on the long end of a 104-22 score. Every first place of the meet was won by the Blue and White, as were a majority of seconds. Among those winning first places for the first time were Summerson, Llewellyn, Rushton, Gannaway, and Biddle. Harrell set another new record in the javelin throw when he hurled it 171 2 feet. Lewis also set a new record in the discus throw with I 13 feet 3- 4 inches. The V. P. L Gobblers were the next opponents at Blacksburg on May 3d. This was the closest meet of the season and was hotly contested throughout, with the Generals emerging the victors, 67-39. Points scored in runs were the same for each team, but the field events again proved favorable for the Blue and White. Davis again won two first places, and one each was won by Howard, Norman, Lewis, and Harrell. Davis set a new record for the 220 low hurdles, but on account of a high wind it was not allowed. The last meet of the season, that of the Northern Division of the Southern Conference, found the Gen- erals in third place. Washington and Lee placed the second largest number of men in the final events, but was nosed out for second place by a slight margin. The track was muddy and the time for all the events was slow. Lewis won first place in the broad jump, while Davis won two seconds, and Howard was nosed out for a first in the two-mile run. With most of the men returning next year with this year ' s experience behind them and with the added material from the Freshmen, prospects look exceedingly bright for the Blue and White in 1923.

HOWARD Captain RESUME This year marked the last appearance of Captain Howard, one of the best cross-country men the South has seen developed in recent years in Collegiate circles. To offset his loss, however, about half of this year ' s team won their mono- grams for the first time and will be eligible for several more seasons. With four or five of them returning next year, there will be a strong nucleus for the team. The first meet this year was on October 31st, against Duke University here with the Blue and White harriers leading the field by a 42-18 score. Howard and Gordon finished first, in order. On November 8th, a dual meet was held on the home course, with V. P. 1. offering the opposition. After some thrilling finishes, the Tech men were returned the victors, 28-29. As usual, Howard finished first. The big home attraction was the Southern Conference Meet held here on November 15th, with V. P. I., Georgia Tech, Virginia, and Washington and Lee having teams entered. V. P. I. won the meet with the low total of 23 points, while the Generals finished second with 45 points. The race was run over a water-soaked course, and the time was much higher than it ordinarily would have been. In spite of this handicap, however. Captain Howard finished first, and the victory stamped him as the foremost cross-country runner in the South. Two Hundred Seventeen Freshman Cross- Country, 1 924 p. C. Manning J. N. Career and A. R.

Some very good material was uncovered, but conflicts in schedules prevented a further testing of it than was given. In the only meet of the season, that against the Virginia Freshmen, the Little Generals scored a decisive victory over thier rivals and showed clearly that some of them will make a decided fight for Varsity berths next year.

This is more noteworthy in view of the fact that four of the seven men were wrestling on the Varsity for their first time. Nine meets were scheduled, and five of them were converted into victories. One of the defeats, that from V. P. 1., was by only I point. The season opened with a defeat at the hands of the Navy at Annapolis, with Captain Holt, scoring a fall, being the only General to amass any points. On February 5th, Virginia ' s team was defeated in Lexington, 20-11. The work of Tico Hundred Twenty CALYX 1925 Biddle, Tilson, and Holt was especially brilliant. West Virginia next took two in a row. one in Lexington and the other at Morgantown. by the counts of 16-9 and 22-3. Walters and Tilson were in the limelight at the home meet, while Captain Holt found no serious opposition in either. Next came two victories, over Duke University and North Carolina University. V. P. 1. then won by a I -point margin, 13-12. The season closed in a blaze of glory on the Northern trip, when Franklin and Marshall was defeated, 18-9, and the Army went down, 12-9. It was the only meet lost by the Army during the year, and the victory stamped the Blue and White matmen as wrestlers of the first order. Captain Holt did not lose a match throughout the season and is easily one of the best Intercollegiate matmen in his class. Tilson developed remarkably, winning seven of his starts, and was rewarded with the captaincy for 1926. Next year, with an abundance of material back, there should be an even better showing made on the mat by the Blue and White.

Spotts RESUME Boxing at Washington and Lee has taken a decided step forward in the last few years, and this year was no exception to the rule. Under the guidance of Coach Brett, the team enjoyed a very successful season, and next year expects to under- take an even harder schedule than that faced at the start of this year, although it held more matches than was the usual custom. The mat season this year could not be called a success from the standpoint of victories won. as only one and a tie decision came from the six starts made by the Blue and White mitmen, but any Two Hundred Twenty-two consideration of the record must be made with the fact in mind that some of the best teams in the country were met. and that a creditable showing was always made- The team labored under handicaps most of the year because of injuries or unfortunate circumstances that combined to keep some of the best men from competition. Lewis, 135-pounder and captain cf the team, failed to return to school, and Rand was elected to fill the vacancy, only to suffer injuries necessitating his withdrawal from the sport. Lancaster, a monogram man, had to give up competi- tion because of ill health, while Ginsburg also withdrew on account of parental wishes. Both men had been consistent fighters and were considered strong cogs in the Blue and White fighting machine. In view of these facts. Coach Brett is to be commended highly on the showing made by the team. With all but one of them new to the ring game, they furnished stiff opposition to older and more experienced boxers. Their showing against Pennsylvania and Yale is especially noteworthy. The work of Eddie Felsenthal, three years captain of the team, was of the highest order in every meet, and he won all his starts on the Northern trip. Wilkin- son, captain elect, also showed great promise and should develop into a dangerous fighter next season. Prospects for next year are brighter than ever before. With every man returning to school, and with this season ' s experience behind them, a formidable team should be developed.

Crenshaw Two Hundred Twenty-four R esume Tennis season opened last year with only one monogram man. A. A. Payne, in school, and prospects for a winning team seemed anything but bright. While the schedule faced was not considered particularly difficult, still it was imperative to get some kind of an organization together; and with the idea of moulding the best team possible with the material at hand. Coach Williams set to work. There was a small group of men remaining from the squad of the previous year, and with these as a nucleus the Varsity squad was formed. Some of the new men were found to possess exceptional ability, and when the Varsity was finally selected two of them were a part of its personnel. The first match of the year was held on the home courts with Colgate offering the opposition. The inexperience of the home team was clearly shown in its first Intercollegiate competition, and the Northern team was returned the victors by the score of 5-1. A period of intensive training was then indulged in. and when Hamp- den-Sidney next invaded the territory of the Blue and White they were forced to take the short end of a 5-0 score. The superiority of the Generals ' courtmen was easily demonstrated, and no serious opposition was encountered. The weather man intervened in the next match, and the scheduled meet at V. P. I. had to be called off on account of rain. When the time-honored rival in all branches of sport. Virginia, was met, the Old Dominion netmen showed their greater experience and won a clean-cut victory. 5-2. In the last encounter of the season, that against the Roanoke Country Club, the home team had to be contented with a tied score. 3-3. in a meet that was well played throughout. Every indication points to a much better year in tennis for the Blue and White this year, due to the fact that not a man was lost by graduation, and with experience behind them, a formidable team should be on the courts for Washington and Lee. The schedule undertaken this season far surpasses anything attempted in the past and demonstrates that the 1925 court Generals are expecting a banner year.

Two were scheduled, one with Virginia and one with Georgia Tech, but both were canceled at the last moment. More interest in swimming is being taken by surrounding schools, and next year no difficulty is expected in scheduling a number of meets. To take the place of the meets, a Water Carnival was held and the men given an opportunity to compete against the school records. Three were broken. Letcher lowered the 50-yard backstroke from 36 to 29 seconds; Gorenflo, the 50-yard breaststroke from 35 ' 2 to 3: and Gage, the 220 free style from 3 minutes I second to 2 minutes 57 2 seconds.

This may have been caused by a slight lapse in interest in the sport as a Freshman activity, and perhaps because a longer schedule was not carded. The first meet was against Staunton Military Academy, and the close of competition found the cadets defeated. 35-36. Then came two defeats in a row. one being administered by Fishburne Military School and the other by Randolph-Macon Academy. After a meet that was as close as humanly possible, the Augusta Military Academy cadets were r eturned the victors by a 35-36 score in the last contest of the season. Some very good material was developed from the Frosh squad and a stronger Varsity should result next year. Two Hundred Twenty-seven Harry Lee, 1 924 FIRST CREW J. C. Dunn. Captain .... Stroke I. W.

Kemp, Secretary Upon the resignation of the popular and able Doc Holbrook as alumni secretary last year, the alumni secretaryship was made a part of the work of the University Field Secretary. This arrangement brought the University and the Alumni. Incorporated, into much closer relationship than heretofore. It has proven harmonious and effective. Politics brought about the first activity of the alumni under the new arrange- ment. The majority of alumni were keenly interested in the nomination by the Democractic National Convention of the Honorable John W. Davis, ' 92, for the Presidency of the United States. A Davis-Alumni Club was formed with branches In every city where there were sufficient alumni. Monte J. Coble, ' 91 , of Cincinnati, Ohio, was particularly active in this organization; as were Governor W. A. Mac- Corkle of Charleston, West Virginia; J. W. Garrow, ' 99, Houston, Texas; A. L. Dabney, ' 92. Memphis, Tennessee; Rees Turpin, ' 92, Kansas City; and numerous others. Eight hundred and seven dollars were contributed by alumni members for publicity purposes and twenty-five thousand circular letters issued. A Davis Alumni Reunion was held at Clarksburg, West Virginia, during the notification exercises, with twenty-three classmates of Mr. Davis attending. A committee of Lexington alumni recommended the publication of an alumni news magazine and, if possible, the compilation of an alumni catalogue during the J G. HERNDON. ' 10 Philadelphia. Pennsylvania Three Hundred Thirty-six WASHINGTON AND LEE ALUMNI. INCORPORATED FRED VALZ. ' 10 Jacksonville, Florida year 1924-25. The first issue of the magazine came out in October and was en- thusiastically received. It has been issued bi-monthly during the College year. Its continued success seems assured. The publication of the Alumni Directory has been a much more arduous task. However, the initial work done by Eddie Parks Davis and Doc Holbrook during the past five years, and the accuracy of the alumni records kept by E. S. Mattingly. registrar, were a valued aid. The directory, with a history of student activity and alumni war service, was ready for distribution at Commencement. During the year, numerous local alumni associations have been organized under the leadership of J. M. Barker, Jr., Bristol, Tennessee; F. P. Hamilton. W. A. Bell and H. M. Blain of New Orleans; J. S. Edmondson of Memphis; W. McC. Martin of St. Louis; R. P. Hobson of Louisville, Kentucky; E. H. Seal of Washington, D. C. ; George E. Haw of Richmond; J. R. Caskie and F. W. McWane of Lynchburg; C. S. McNulty of Roanoke; and Stuart Chevalier of New York City. Three Hundred Thirty-seven WASHINGTON AND LEE ALUMNI, INCORPORATED The outstanding alumni meeting of the year was held during the Florida- W. and L. football game at Jacksonville. Florida, on December sixth. Under the leadership of R. A. Baker. ' 96. and Fred Valz. ' 10. the Jacksonville alumni kept open house for the visiting alumni from the surrounding States. The successful meeting was brought to a climax at the alumni banquet given to the team on the evening after the game. Over seventy alumni attended this banquet. Interesting addresses were made by R. P. Daniel. ' 01 ; Coach DeHart; R. A. Baker, ' 96; and Lonnie D. Howell. The lack of space prohibits the mention of further alumni activity and con- tributions in this issue of the Calyx. A complete acknowledgment would be impossible. Throughout the year, the Lexington office has been accorded the most gracious co-operation by the individual alumni throughout the country and the administrative officers of the University. From the oldest alumnus, J. J. Allen, ' 70, of Essex, North Carolina, to the most recent graduate, the alumni have welcomed and encouraged the efforts of the Alumni, Incorporated, to establish a closer and warmer contact between the University and her alumni, and among the alumni themselves.

I asked for a date, not an interview. Inasmuch as Miss Cobb won ' t let us smoke in the library, she might at least furnish the place with gobboons. While on the subject, we might suggest that Spang take better care of the Commerce Library. He hasn ' t cleaned the cuspidors in there for over a month. ' Johnny made an awful break last night. He ought to be more careful. Aw well, what can you expect of a boy that shot pool before? ' A PLEA FOR SYMPATHY Give a thought to the poor boys who now lie starving in the Jackson Memorial Hospital. Do you realize what they are gomg through? I didn ' t, until one day, stricken down with chilblains. I was transported there by Friend Glas- cow, and put into a bed in a room with Duke Pollack and seven Sales and Advertising Students who were expecting a quiz. The room was filled with tobacco smoke and the Commerce students were making so much noise that Pollack couldn ' t read his parallel and had to stay in the hospital an extra day and finish it. At 8:30 an attendant entered, bearing a tray of food. Ah. meat! ' . cried a Commerce student. Who had the operation? ' asked Pollack, quickly. An argument then followed over whose turn it was to eat. after which the boys got up a few impromptu wrestling matches and sang a few songs, until the nurse came in and told them they ' d have to keep quiet as there was a sick man in the building. The boys then piled the beds and furniture against the door to keep out the nurse with the elephant pills, and went to sleep on the floor. During the night we were awakened by a terrible crash; the dumb waiter had broken down, hauling up a new barrel of aspirin, and in the morning they carried out the emaciated corpse of two men who had forgotten to make arrangements w ith the Greeks to have their meals brought in to them. NECKING Necking is a development. It is the result of the application of the modern sciences of wrestling, ju jitsu. and chiropractic to the obsolete pastime of spooning. It is the ne plus ultra of calis- thenics. Through Its influence we are evolving into a race of contortionists. Though the word necking is comparatively modern, the sport has always existed. In earlier days, it was crude and inconvenient. The necking party between Marie Antoinette and the French Revolutionists, and the one tendered to Charles the First under the auspices of Oliver Cromwell, were among those in which one party was less enthusiastic about the function than the other, but due to radical changes and improvements, lack of enthusiasm on the part of one of the participants is a thing of the past. In bringing the art to its present degree of perfection, great strides have been made. The principle has been applied to dancing; the scene has been shifted from the porch hammock and canoe to the automobile, and the aeroplane will be next. Necking has been the subject of prodigious development, but to assume that that develop- ment has reached its highest point would be erroneous. The near future will probably see the application of the Franklin Air Cooling system to the oldest all round, all-weather sport in exist- ence, but the peak, or if you be a member of the Faculty, the perfection of the art will not have been reached until Freud begins calling it the Romeo and Juliet complex. Three Hundred Forty-one CALYX HUMOR CAMPUS SCENE HOW TO CLEAN A FRATERNITY HOUSE The most approved method among the Sigma Nus. Phi Kappa Sig ' s, and the Pi Kappa Phi ' s is to move out and let the next tenant doit. However, for the benefit of those chapters which own their own, or regularly pay their rent, a few words of advice may assist in the playing of this little-known sport. The first move is to provide each goat with some appropriate implements such as a broom and shovel. He should be instructed in the use of the implements, as he is probably unfamiliar with them. Start at the top floor and work down. Housecleaning. like parachute-jumping, is a thing you should be removed by hanging it outside , and the whole floor raked over. The can ' t learn from the ground up. Here, any furniture the window, the dirt shoveled out of the corners carpets should by this time be in sight, and these may be beaten by dropping them several times from the window. The windows need not be washed, as they will have to be replaced by new ones after finals. After having properly wrecked the upper floor, the goats should begin in the living room, which IS the technical name for the place the victrola is kept. The victrola itself should be emptied of all the cigarette butts which have been dropped inside it. and the Nearer My God to Thee record dusted off. The piano should be left alone in the corner. There ' s no telling what might be found behind it. and anyway, the thing ' s pretty heavy. But if the housecleaning should by any freak of circumstance be taking place at the Phi Psi house, the goats should be instructed to return the piano to the Sigma Nu house, where it was borrowed one Saturday night last fall.

Was sorry to hear you lost Palmer and Munson, but they were rath- er-er-rough. don ' t you think? And such boys when it came to spilling tea! But Roscoe Whelps is a paragon of social virtue: just as refined and elegant as you please. Why. he drank tea with Mrs. Warren G. Harding without even the ap- pearance of incompetency. He also drinks the milder forms of alcohol, such as elderberry wine. As for his dancing, he is divine.

DeBiaso The flying professors subdued the strong team from the two dormitories in a fast and furious battle just prior to the ' 24 Thanksgiving Dances. The final score was 7-3. To glance at the score is to justify one ' s mind as to the fight put up by both teams. Many spectacular plays were pulled off during the games, and until the referee. Morrison, blew the final whistle, no one was sure of the outcome. The sensational play of the game came in the last quarter. The dormies were leading by 3 points, kicked by fullback DeBiaso in an early period of the game and, try as they may. the profs had failed to score. By sweeping end-runs by Boss Moreland and line-bucks by Lefty, the ball was advanced to the 40-yard line of the men from the dorms. With 4 yards to go and fourth down. Levitt was called on for a line-play. A bad pass by Bugs ' Hoyt caused a fumble which was recovered by Senator Crenshaw. With the speed of Mercury, the huge tackle sped down the field. Only one man. Riley, was in striking distance as he neared his goal. Closer and closer came end Riley as Crenshaw came closer to his goal. The Senator then made the fallacy of looking behind him. as did Lot ' s wife, but instead of meeting her fate and turning to a block of salt, he ran head- long into a goal post, dropping the ball as he did so. The fleet end then thought quickly, and picked up the oval and began a mad dash back down the field. The remaining ten dormies stood in his way. By a neat stiff arm he evaded the closing arms of Kimbrough. He went 10 yards more before he sidestepped Rouse and Roach. Using every ounce of his strength, and stretching the very sinews of his soul, he leaped over Strahorn. Pollack, DeBiaso. and Patterson. Only three at this point stood in his path. Shaffer made a furious tackle and only by a corkscrew twist was he able to wrench himself loose from the dormitories ' left ranger. This superb exhibition left Riley tottering on his feet. 20 yards from his goal, with Lowry racing towards him. Instead of giving up and relying on his teammates to do the rest, he summoned the rest of his strength and ran directly toward the oncoming Lowry. Doc then pulled the unexpected; he neatly stepped aside and with the ball in his right hand he smacked all right in the mouth. C. W. Lowry, the pride of the dormies and the idol of the beanery, bit the grimy ground. Riley was exhausted, but he stumbled on. Clark only was left in his path.

No statement can be formulated regarding his personal needs. A student should have seventy-five or eighty dollars a month for week-ends, and if it can be afforded, a little extra for luxuries, such as room and board. Fees Few parents are aware that two hundred dollars cover for a full session all fees except regis- tration and those required for attendance at the Monday sessions of the Rockbridge County Court. These will vary, depending upon how often the student is here during the session. This amount includes fees for tuition, diplomas, the use of the Y. M. C. A. rooms, physician ' s fee, and the privilege of dying in the Jackson Memorial Hospital. Three Hundred Forty-six CALYX HUMOR PERSONAL EXPENSES Board usually includes soup, several varieties of case-hardened beans, and corn worked up in every conceivable form. The Lexington Restaurant is the only boarding house in town where that grain gets its just due. Room is likely to include almost anything. Chairs are frequently found in the higher-priced rooms, and beds are not at all unusual. Running water is supplied in many rooms free of charge during rainy weather. Some of the rooms are in suites, consisting of two bed- rooms and a common card room. Scholarships This is a nice little graft whereby the Phi Beta Kappas get something worth while out of College, it also furnishes a means of subsistence for some of the boys who aren ' t so good at poker or pitch-fienny. Registration At the opening of the session, every student is required to stand in Ime during the first three days in order to give the Ring-lum Phi and Calyx managers a chance to do their stu ff. A student absent from any recitation or class on the first two days after the Christmas Holi- days will suffer the penalty of fines as follows: two dollars per class if student is in Staunton, a dollar seventy-five if in Lynchburg, and a dollar fifty if he is in Roanoke. The fine is only fifty cents if the student stayed over in Buena Vista. HISTORICAL SKETCH The history in the old catalogue says that Washington and Lee got its start in I 749 as Augusta Academy. This is untrue. It really started in the twelfth century as the University of Paris. The University of Paris flourished until 1743 when it was stolen and brought to this country. In 1749 it was set up in Lexington under the assumed name of Augusta Academy. It is from this Augusta Academy that our own Washington and Lee University has sprung. There may be some querulous p)erson who will say that the University of Paris is still in existence. But for that matter, so is the Augusta Military Academy. The Academic Department was endowed by George Washington with a gift of a piece of C. O. Canal stock, and it is expected that the new School of Journalism is to be endowed with Panama Canal stock. STUDENT ACTIVITIES 1. Card-playing is one of the foremost student activities and is used as a means of getting rid of superfluous allowance while the student ' s friend takes a thirty-day vacation. The apparatus used consists of four or more of the University ' s finest, a table, a deck of cards, and a number of cold checks. Disputes may be settled in any of two ways: by reference to Hoyle ' s or the use of the All-American comeback — awgotohell! 2. Dancing is indulged in by some of the boys who wish to appear unique and stay on the floor while the orchestra is playing. It is popularly supposed to be the reason girls are invited to dances. 3. Drinking (see also Dancing). A quaint custom fostered by Swink and the Gentleman ' s Agreement. Student Self-Government and other Forms of Anarchy The Faculty, in order to shift the blame of mismanagement of the school from their own shoulders, have consented to let the students run a lot of things they have always run. anyway. Each spring, the students elect a man to be President of the Student Body, and from then on that man stops drinking in public. The Student Body then makes ten other mistakes in electing ten other men to the Executive Committee, and then the fun begins. It IS a generally-known and curious phenomenon that the eleven men are generally pretty good boys before their elections to the Executive Committee.

Incidentally, the uncanny magnetic attraction the walrus tamers- bats had for the pill might be added to the list of falsehoods why the Varsity failed to outscare their opponents. Moreover, the igloo inhabitants put whale oil on the bases it was reported in unofficial headquarters to the Drink Bum Riic reporter Anyway, the Varsity played a great game The Hysterical boys had an Esquimo dollar with which they won the toss because the Lexington aggregation couldn ' t tell which side was heads and which tails They elected to bat first The first man up knocked SnakclVlayben out of the box. Snake landed about five miles this side of Roanoke, so he went across the toad to the Kappa Sigma house and took a bath. This last, however, was denied by the Kappa Sigmas who claim thai he only changed his clothes in preparation tor a date that night. The ball has not yet been located, but a friend of the Esquimo lads back home wired that it passed there about noon the next day. What went on after that, can ' t be told with only twenty-six letters in the alphabet and the asterisk broken off the typewriter. The doughty Lindberg. the much of a strategist for the Northmen. He dug a bombproof cellar behind the box into which he and the umpire ran after each delivery Along about five o ' clock, during the first half of the first, the Big Blue team, feel- ing still bluer by this time, made a clever double play which nearly beat their adversaries With two men on bases, a Hysterical man made a bunt which was scooped up bv the left fielder and relayed to second just ahead of the runner. Then the ballwas thrown to the third baseman, catching another runner who had stopped to bum a cigarette from the shortstop. Another out was registered when the centerfielder caught a man who came out into his territory to pick flowers, and the Varsity went in to bat. The first two men struck out before they discovered that the ball was still in the umpire ' s pocket The third man up was the Redoubt- able Slack He jumped up to the box just as the pitcher was tossing the ball to the catcher to hold while he got out a fresh chew of blubber, and almost knocked it out of the infield along the first base line. The first baseman picked it up and tagged the base, thus ending the first innmg. but Slack ' s stomach was in the way. and he didn t see the play, so he kept right on going and was much bewildered on reaching the base to find that both teams were already back in the clubhouse The scorekceper evened the count between halves, and on returning from the clubhouse, the Varsity tightened up their machine, dispensing with the catcher so that four men could play in the outfield. Thus the game continued till seven o ' clock, when it was called in the first half of the second to give the out-of-towners time to dress for the P P P. Fancy Dress Ball LOCAL RESTAURANTER IN AGAIN.

The feebleness of this sheet can hardly be excused even on the grounds of a first attempt, and its frenzied groping after Neolithic wise-cracks would be pitiable it the pity didn ' t cost twenty cents, and its at- tempts to be funny exhibit all the originality of a trained seal. The Rebel YelUnd its Editor are sensible to the flat- tery of attempted emulation, but even conceding emula- tion to be the sincerest form of flattery, I do not consider myself to have been much flattered I would recommend in the first place that the editors buy themselves a good parrot and get it to teach them to swear, and in the second place that they give their left-over copies to the local Sunday Schools for circulation in place of the cus- tomary Little Folks ' Weekly. I don ' t intend to say that Pidellaurus is unworthy of the W. and L. Campus. I will at least admit that it is the best publication of its kind that has been issued here since Dr. Smith stamped out the existence of my humor- ous publication a year ago. But nevertheless, I wish to call upon the Student Body to withdraw its support from this spurious imitation of one of the most sacred traditions of the Campus Yours truly. Dr. Willie Brown Editor.

The scene-shifting was by far the best part of the show. It was probably done by local talent Technically, the play ended when Lord Algy walked the stage with the bleeding head of Fatima the muscle- dancer clasped in his hand, but actually it ended when the last spectator walked out at the beginning of the The Sullins Suck-in plays tomorrow night at the Uni- versity of Virginia, so mum ' s the word. 356 THE DRINK-BUM RYE FANCY DRESS REELING SUCCESS Figures Cause Favorable Comment WIE GEHTS TEA ROOM out ot business, due to lack of I ' I was a riot of color r riots of national r ally had a reason.

This is to present you to Haigue Yolk, a very promising young man. A good point of his makes him anout-and-out Delt. He never has put out any money for anything, not even likker. but he stays drunk just the same. He will make a good bartender for the back-room bar. and he packs a dirty look.

Three Hundred Sixty-one SUPPORT THE 1926 CALYX FOLLOW THE FIGHTING GENERALS Washington and Lee University ITS UNIQUE POSITION AMONG SOUTHERN INSTITUTIONS OF LEARNING WASHINGTON AND LEE UNIVERSITY waS founded as Augusta Academy in 1749. By unanimous vote of the board of trustees its name was changed to Liberty fall in May. 76. and later, when selected and endowed by George Washington, the name was changed, with his approval, to Wash- ington College. In 1782 it was formally chartered as an indefjendent institution of higher learning, with a self-perpetuating board of trustees. At the close of the Civil War. General Robert E. Lee refused offers of the headship of stale and church institutions and chose Washington College as the agent through which he might dedicate his life to the obliteration of sectional antagonisms and the training through their future leaders of the whole Southern people. Its position among Southern institutions of higher learning is altogether unique in the following characteristics: 1 . Its Patriotic History and Ennobling Associations. The roots of Washington and Lee were set far back in colonial days. It is a sacred and inspiring shrine of Southern patriotism, of ennobling memories and traditions, of lofty and unselfish devotion to the public good. 2. Its Independence of State and Church Control. Washington and Lee is located on sacred and classic Virginia soil, but it is entirely in- depiendent of p olitics and political or legis- lative control. It IS an historic institution independent of state lines and is patronized by the whole South. The spirit of Washington and Lee. while deeply Christian, is non-denominational and independent of all ecclesiastical control. Among the old historic Southern institutions it IS the only one thus independent of both state and church boundaries and limitations. 3. Its Humanitarian Spirit and Tendency. Washington and Lee is not a technical institution dominated by the idea of learning something which can be immediately turned into money. It has always been a wonderful nursery of leaders of men rather than of makers of money. 4. A Record of Washington and Lee ' s Ser- vice to the Nation from 19 4 to 191 8: Secretary of War Ambassador to Great Britain Ambassador to Italy Justice of the Supreme Court Solicitor-General of the United States Assistant Attorney-General of the United States Two Judges of the United States Court of Claims General Counsel of the United States Food Administration Joint Chairman of the National War Labor Board Secretary of the National War Labor Board Chief of Legal Division. Bureau of War Risk Insurance President of the American Section of the In- ter-Parliamentary Union Chairman of the Senate Committee on Mili- tary Affairs Chairman of the House Committee on Mili- tary Affairs Chairman of the Senate Committee on Bank- ing and Currency Chairman of the Senate Committee on Mines and Mining Chairman of the House Committee on Foreign Relations 5. Its Climate and Environment. The marvelous climate of this intermontane plateau, dry, tonic, and curative; the cosmo- politan fellowship of a student-body drawn from the whole South: the characteristic cordiality of its campus toward new students as well as old; the unequaled facilities for the care and training of the body; and the all- dominant and traditional honor-system which rules all campus life and thought characterize this unique institution.

WEINBERG Lexington, Virginia Why Do Printers Estimates Differ? When Using the Same Specifications (f HE answer is: THEY DO NOT! Let us explain. No specification you or anybody else ever made was complete. All the estimates you ever received on a printing proposition differed on the thing that you didn ' t specify — quality. Each printer quoted you on his quality. Now listen ! There are only two things you can specify with exactness on a printing order — paper and size. Everything else is style. Style consists of design, taste and workmanship. The King ' s bones and muscles contain the same elements as the pauper ' s: the only difference is personality.

In the libraries of many of the old grads will be found books, programs and announcements preserved for their intimate memories and associations. It is the production of this kind of printing that has brought to this or- ganization its frequent opportunities to serve University men and women. Beautiful forms and compositions are not made by chance, nor can they ever, in any material, be made at small expense.
