The four short college years are crowded with hosts of happenings zvhich, if not gath- ered together in a permanent record, are lost in the ever increasing number of new ones as years roll by and the contributions of the class of 1927 drift into the dim past. ' It has therefore been the aim of the Editors of this Sixty-ninth volume of the Olla Podrida to bind to- gether pages from the book of our college life that an attrac- tive record of the ei ents I :, : and faces of the past years may be pre- served Six Book I C!)e ?Hnitjersiitp Book II Jfraternitiesi Book III ctitiitiesi Book IV Jfeature Seven Editor-in-Chief Ralph Frederic Bischoff Business Manager Robert Bruce Irwin Editorial Board Edward Lorenzo Huble i John Mortimer Collins James Marshall Osborn John Howard Hatt Assistant Editors Frederick Lane Kowalewski Howard Bierly Matthews Homer Edward McNutt Laurence Whittier Phelps Business Board Paul Newton Bronson John Theodore Hughes •33§g; V( 7 Er In the art work of the nineteen twenty-seven Olla Podrida, the Editors have not endeavored to fol- low any particular motif, but rather to characterize the several aspects of life on the Wesleyan campus. It is the hope of the Editors that any witticisms pertaining to persons or groups will not he taken seriously, but rather in the spirit in which they are noted.

It was on the 20th day of September 1923, a mellow day in early autumn. The drowsy campus lay wann and hazy in the midday sun. About the chapel, its doors wide open, there floated an air of vibrant expectancy. One felt instinctively that a bit of history was about to be made. The silence was suddenly swept aside by the great thrilling tones of the organ, and immediately hundreds of men poured forth from the chapel. There were men of all sorts and conditions, but the members of the newborn class were as easily distinguishable for their glorious youthful bloom and fearless mien as for the hideous red hats they were clamorously bidden to wear. A new class had been born to Alma Mater Wesleyan. Throughout the first year it became more and more apparent that a better day of growth, regeneration and reform had dawned for the college. Wesleyan has expanded as we have expanded, and a broadening and vitalizing wave has swept Wesleyan and the Class of 1927 to the high peak of progress and achieve- ment where we find them today. We found Wfesleyan without a president, we leave it under the able and happy guidance of Dr. McConaughy. We have witnessed the erection of two magnificent buildings and two fraternity houses. Our excellence in things scholas- tic has led to a far more liberal attitude on the part of the faculty, manifested in the establishment and extension of unlimited cutting privileges for those of T T Sixty-fivf superior scholarship, Willbur Fisk Scholarships, and a system of comprehensive examinations in major subjects. Our excellence in all lines as freshmen resulted in the award by the class of 1924 of the venerable old Gym Key as the best class in college at that time. Of the two hundred and more freshmen that beat ' 26 in that memorable flag scrap only about half that number remain to essay the last faculty bulwarks (pro- nounced Bull-Works). As our numbers diminished, names like Childress and Cook became conversational puppets in discussion of the halcyon days. Steele, Martin, Jack, King, and Hartzell survived to lead W ' esleyan teams in their senior year. Literary leadership was won by Reynolds, Bischoff, Lea, and Hubler. Dun- ham and Bruce set up scholarship targets that the rest of the college may well be proud to shoot at, while Bischoff, May, Sloat, and Barnes have also won the coveted keys. W ' esleyan ' s national pre-eminence in music has been achieved under the direction of Kuhl and Scudder. There have been few classes so bereft of promising ability and merit by the scholastic grim reaper. Our college career has been four years of constant expan- sion and hectic but progressive metamorphoses, both for us and for Wesleyan, but through it all has shown the bright steady lamp of achievement for Wesleyan, which we leave for oncoming classes to carry on.

Prepared at Hartford High School Wasp Board (2, 3, 4); Art Editor (4); La Socicte Fraiicaisc (3); Secretary (3); Major Subject: French. No one will ever forget the fair countess in The Man From Home, pro- duced by Walter E. Peck. Yes, the buxom noblewoman was none other than E. Columbine Abbe, sometimes art editor of the Wasp. It has been rumored that Abbe ' s happy ability to put Curt ' s wise cracks into cartoons and to keep his mu- seum of hand-carved monkeys and sailing craft open to the faculty kids had some- thing to do with his good marks, but those nearest Abbe claim that he had been taxiing Profs. Mann and Bussom around in Ambrosia, his twin squeaks. The question is, will he teach French through the medium of sculpturing or painting ? Asty lYJ George Clifford Astarita, AA$ Alpha Delta Phi House AUenhurst, N. J. Prepared at Asbury Park High School Class Treasurer (1) ; Varsity Soccer Team (3, 4); Varsity Swimming Squad (1, 2); Varsity Baseball Squad (1) : Soccer Man- ayership Qualifications (2); Class Base- ball (1, 2, 3. 4): Class Basketball (2, 3): Class Swimminy (1, 2): Debate Council (4); Varsity Debate Team (4); Flag Scrap Committee (1, 2); Class Banquet Committee (1); Junior Honors (3); Honor Roll (3, 4); Major Subject: Economics. The curtain rises. Time 1937. Scene, a palatial office in the home town, As- bury Park. In the foreground George seated at a desk covered with bonds, tel- ephones, and peculiar looking instruments looking very much like lead pipes. He is dictating. I owe my success to my little lead pipe. (We were right.) I point with pride to the Alpha Delt freshmen dele- gations of ' 28, ' 29, ' 30, and I sold a bond to Professor Fisher. Y - Sixty-seven Doc George Freeman Atwood, B0n Beta Theta Pi House Boston, Mass. Prepared at Hebron Academy Cardinal Board (2, 3) ; Business Manager (3); Glee Club (2, 3. 4); Pre-Medical Club (2. 3. 4); President (3); Atwatcr Club (3, 4): Chapel Choir (4); Major Subject: Biology. No doubt many have seen this profes- sional looking gentleman wandering about the campus. Just good old Doc At- wood. After attending Hebron Acad- emy he decided to really obtain some knowledge — at Wesleyan. During his years at college his time has been largely spent in Judd Hall, where he labors over anything from earthworms and beetles to cats and higher types. Doc has been in the ranks of the glee club for several years. It is said that shortly after rendering a serenade in Hartford in clear and appealing tones he came to the decision that he would not be a doctor. But time restores faith and he may be an M.D. yet. M Damon Damon Barnes, C.C. Commons Club House West Windsor, Vt. Prepared at Montpelier Seminary Phi Beta Kappa; Paint and Powder Club (2); La Societe Francaise (1, 2, 3, 4); President (4); Chapel Choir (1, 2, 3): Honor Roll (1, 2, 3, 4) ; Major Subject: French. Undoubtedly one of the most versatile men on the campus. He can talk French, read French ; furthermore, he has cooked a few dishes which have made an artist ' s mouth water ; therefore he is qualified to become a French chef. He also hails from Vermont, where trees grow thick and tall, and the Canadian border is only a few miles away. H Home is where the heart is, then Barnes doesn ' t live with his parents ; but he ' s had her to a Wesleyan dance, and the boys say she will do. He says he can ' t drive a truck, but the parenthetical e.xpression of his legs leads us to believe that he must be some horseman. W tf Sixty-eight ifJb Lr }f 2ii:: -- Barry Laurence Barrington, 2N Sigma Nu House New York, N. Y. Prepared at Ethical Culture High School Wasp Board (2, 3); Associate Editor (4); Weslcyan Serenaders (3); La Socicte Francaise (2, 3, 4); Major Sub- ject: Economics. Barry, Scutter of all jobs and man- ager of none (scholarship), is from New York; who could help but know it to see him. His social tendencies kept him far enough behind his class, so he had to study diligently his senior year, but now that that is over, he can go back to so- ciety competent to fufill his ambition, which is to move Smith College to Port- land and sell it to the Trustees of Wes- leyan University. We believe this man was cut out to be a salesman. The name, please ? Just Laurence Walker Living- stone Barrington. We hope that Barry has obtained the Ethical Culture for which his high school prepared him — but appearances are deceiving. Bugs Ernest St. Clair Bijou, Y Psi Upsilon House Brooklyn, N. Y. Prepared at Polytechnic Preparatory School Skull and Serpent; Pi Delia Epsiloii Class Secretary (3); Varsity Soccer Team (2, 3, 4); Varsity Baseball Squad (1); Class Soccer (2, 3); Captain (2, 3); Argus Board (2, 3, 4); Associate Editor (3. 4); Wasp Board (2. 3): Circulation Manager (3): Cardinal Board (4); All Wesleyan Week-End Committee (3) Chairman Forum Committee (4); Cla ' Banquet Committee (1, 2) ; Flag Scrap Cnmmi,tee (1, 2); Major Subject: Eng- lish. Wesleyan ' s poet laureate has done for the Wesleyan professor what Fl;) Zieg- field has done for the American girl. He lives down by the Hudson River and he sure does know his tubes. Born in Brooklyn, he early came to this country, and now uses American so well that he has kept us on the map via his Cour- ant. As chairman of the Forum, Clair is giving us some unusually interesting dis- cussions from well chosen speakers. Sixty-nine Nciuo ' - t ' Ralph Frederic Bischoff, N0 i.

(Continued from above) Small but potent, housekeeper, general manager, and balance wheel of the well- known Eclectic House ; warm hearted, witty, a past master of diplomacy, and with hair fast thinning from excessive thought — tha ' s Li ' l Nemo. Tom Thomas Volney Boardman, AA Alpha Delta Phi House Washington, D. C. Prepared at Central High School Varsity Soccer Squad (3) ; Varsity Smm- tning Squad (1, 2) ; Varsity Track Squad (1, 2, 3); Class Soccer (3) ; Class Swim- ming (1); Class Track (1, 2); Honor Roll (3, 4); Major Subject: Economics. Tom has impressed us especially with his joviality which radiates forth most any time. It is rumored that he has be- come the model of a young lady artist of Greenwich Village. She is one of those highly paid cartoon drawers, who carry on their work in New York. Tom left us at mid-years, having completed in three and one-half years what most of us do in four. Strangely enough, the order for a key was mixed up and Tom re- ceived the wrong one. However, as he explains it, this key is never worn on his watch chain because too many morons own one. Also, the presence of the key necessitates a certain standard and Tom is not always capable of living up to it. Seventy T ' S T. H. Thomas Henry Briggs, Jr., AKE Delta Kappa Epsilon House Yonkers, N. Y. Prepared at Horace Mann School Varsity Football Team (3, 4) ; Rosa Club (3, 4): Educational Parley Committee (4); Major Subject: Physics. Although a Big Man on the Campus from the day he matriculated, this eminent Mr. Briggs — ambassador from the near- foreign country of Yonkers, N. Y. — has pursued the course of modesty to non- collegiate extremes. In fact, no one sus- pected him of being other than a distin- guished athlete, one among many such on Wesleyan ' s powerful football team, until the news leaked out that he is a renowned traveler, educator, physicist and ladies ' man. It is even rumored that he plans publishing a book : Ten nights on the Champs Elysees, or What Hap- pened to the Wesleyan Survey Commit- tee in Paris, with a sequel, Wyoming and the Open Spaces — Walk, do not run, to the nearest book store. I Bill William Fausset Bruce Foss House New Bedford, Mass. Prepared at Brockton and North Attle- boro High Schools Phi Beta Kappa; Atwater Club (3, 4 ' Junior Honors in Chemistry ; Honor Roll (1, 2, 3, 4); Major Subject: Chemistry. Fired with ambition and determined to shun the commoner temptations of college — although one is inclined to sus- pect that hosts of suppressed desires lie hidden behind the mask of Bill ' s com- placent smile — this eminent Mr. Bruce came down from the North, like his Scot- tish namesake of yore, to give battle with the books. And now after many a strug- gle with the armies of Chemistry and German, to say nothing of the Psychol- ogy which nearly overpowered him, he has captured the famous Golden Key. When asked about his exploits, he re- marked naively : Veni, vidi, vici — and I never trusted to luck in hour writtens. Really I owe it all to my trusty umbrella and celluloid collars. Seventy-oru Ned James Edward Bryan, AY Delta Upsilon House Asbury Park, N. J. Prepared at Asbury Park High School Basketball Managership Qualifications (2); Glee Club (2. 3, 4); Chapel Choir (3, 4) ; Major Subject: English. Ned has always been the sociil light. Even in his freshman year he excelled with the ladies, but in his senior year he has clearly outdistanced all others. The house is financially blest with Ned ' s room rent, but seldom favored with his pres- ence. Ned has undoubtedly established a record — missing only one night in a month. With all his literary and poetic ability Ned should soon publish a col- lection of sonnets (the traditional way of expressing such sentiments and honor- ing such companions.) While there is some question about his getting down to immortalizing some one else, his apt and fitting remarks have won him enduring renown — he is one of the more wittier men. Dud Joel Dudley Burr 161 Kensington Avenue Meriden, Conn. Prepared at Meriden High School Atwatcr Club (3, 4); Prc-Med Club (2, 3, 4) ; Major Subject: Chemistry. Dud came to us from Meriden. He arrived in a rattling Ford puffing at a cigarette. During his sojourn here we rarely saw him without that Lucky Strike between his lips. But we for- give him this bad habit for it is his only one. He goes into the field of medicine to either give a good physician to the world or die in the attempt, and we know that he will live to a ripe old age. Any- one who can tell stories with such gusto and laugh so heartily as Dud should have no fear of an untimely death. His patients will be a happy crew. He has already acquired the professional air com- mon to horse doctors, and hence already has his foot on the first rung above the Pre-Med Club. Seventy-two s4 -Jr. Lee Leverett Ernest Carter Ivy Hall Clinton, Conn. Prepared at Morgan School Class Baseball (1): Assistant Manager Dramatics (3) ; Production Manager (4) ; Paint and Powder Club (2, i, 4); Pre- Medical Club (3, 4); Der Dcutsclwr Verein (3, 4); Secretary-Treasurer (4): Honor Roll (4); Major Subject: Eng- lish. Behold a native son of Clinton, Con- necticut. He came to Wesleyan a clean- shaven lad, fired with lofty ambitions and bubbling over with energy. Gaze upon him now. Has he not blossomed into a suave young man, looking scorn- fully upon a world that failed to supply the adventures he so eagerly anticipated ? During his early years here he turned to dramatics as a means of expression for his artistic soul, but this was not suffi- cient for him, so as a last resort he culti- vated the growth that sprouted under his nose, and one day broke into our midst with the turned-up badge of scorn that adorns him in this picture. Ben Thomas Benjamin Cashman, r Gamma Psi House Berlin, Conn. Prepared at New Britain High School Transferred from Clark University (2); Senate (4) ; Varsity Football Squad (2) ; Team (3); Class Football (2); Class Basketball (2, 3); Major Subject: Psy- chology. Papa Benny ' s college career has been an unusual one. H 011a Pod points were given for adopting small children, and acting like a child, Benny would qualify on both counts. Ben transferred here from Clark University — possibly be- cause they had no football team up there. Ben was kinda fast with a football, but nowhere else. When it comes to women he is lost. They hold his hands and he gets non-plussed. But there ' s no doubt that the boy is a go-getter, and if he is as successful in getting a girl as he has been in some other things, we can expect a Mrs. Cashman before long. Seventy-three —  v c U i ' ' ' Si (d ir— Juscpp Joseph Gildo Cerina Ivy Hall New York City Prepared at Mount Pleasant Academy Atwater Club (3, 4); Major Subject: Chemistry. No sooner had Joe won fifty dollars at the Saints ' than he became famous from Cromwell to South Farms via Port- land. From his Broadway he brought the hits of the cabarets and spaghetti joints, thus adding popularity to his fame. No one ever held it against Joe that he went to school with the Van- derbilt twins, but it was resented that for 011a Pod points he submitted Grand 1, 2, 3, 4; Middlesex 1, 2, 3, ; Capitol 3, 4 ; without mentioning Moodus. The two great events of Joe ' s college days were the Cardinal ' s publication of his poem God Speaks Through Every Blooming Flower, and his trip to the of- fice where he answered the question where is that car? Speaking of de- bates, try one of Joe ' s arguments — he ' ll take either side. Jack John Frederick Chester, AA$ Alpha Delta Phi House Washington, D. C. Prepared at Central High School Skull and Serpent; Varsity Swimming Squad (1, 2, 3, 4) ; Assistant Manager Baseball (3); Manager (4 ; Class Swim- ming (4); Class Baseball (3); Forum Committee (4); Honor Roll (4); Major Subject: English. Our little Dynamite came to us yod- ling negro melodies taught him by his colored mammy while still in swaddling clothes. Our bombing hero has always glorified his darker brothers. It is a toss up between yodling and baseball for Jack ' s favorite sport. Never once during his college career did he fail to cheer a Senator victory, and when they won the pennant his brothers couldn ' t hold the little bundle of dynamite down. So enthused did he become over base- ball that he insisted upon being made manager of his Alma Mater ' s team. Jack is going to write for a newspaper. 0 ' - ' Seventy-four dl ) : J ? f TN-tT- - i Doc Henry Gwinnell Coit, AXP Alpha Chi Rho House East Orange, N. J. Prepared at Barringer High School Pi Delta Epsilon ; Track Managership Qualifications (2) ; Argus Board (2. 3. 4) ■ Associate Editor (4) : Wasp Board (1, 2, 3); Literary Editor (4); Rosa Club (3, 4); Major Subject: Physics. In after years our memory will recall a picture of Gwinnell — a tall, leari figure desperately hurrying somewhere to do something. Henry is like that. As long as he is doing something it does not mat- ter much what or where it is. and in any case he does it with fine gusto. He is never still. When he is not doing some- thing he is saying it. He does the latter with a splendid facility that for a time made him suffer under the opprobrious suspicion of being the Prismist. From this, however, he has been vindicated. At the present writing he is not in love. Doggie John Mortimer Collins, N® Phi Nu Theta House Lynn, Mass. Prepared at Hackley School Pi Delta Epsilon; Varsity Track Squad (1); Varsity Swimming Squad (2); Varsity Soccer Squad (4) ; Olla Podrida Board (3, 4); Art Editor (4): Wasp Board (2, 3, 4); Musical and Dramatic Board (3, 4); Paint and Powder Club (1, 2, 3. 4) : President (3, 4); Major Sub- ject: Psychology. Doggie is distinguished as an actor by his sartorial excellence and his mastery of any situation. He has been kno wn to ask the night clerk at the Commodore if it would be cheaper if two boys slept in a single bed — and not change color after he d asked. Time may be hard on his hair, but it only serves to increase his stock of anecdotes and dialects, and in- crease the circle of his friends. He is even qualified to sell bonds and still be his usual genial self. (5 - Seventy-five ' •! i ' Cooie Clarence Lee Cooper, N0 Phi Nu Theta House Upper Montclair, N. J. Prepared at Peddie Skull and Serpent; Class Vice-President (4) ; Varsity Golf Team (2, 3, 4) ; Captain (3, 4); Manager (4); Class Soccer (3); Class Baseball (1, 2) ; Cheer Leader (3, 4); Head (4); Chairman Junior Prom Committee (3); Class Day Committee (4); Honor Roll (4); Major Subject: History. Cooie is a difficult character to ex- plain (this will please him). It is hard to determine when one really knows him, as it is also hard to differentiate between what are elaborations and what are facts in his descriptions of events. He is especially to be congratulated for his peculiar ability to lose the atmosphere of his home town. Coop has accomplished all he set out for in campus life, and yet has not been too sedate about it, as the spasmodic loss of his fur coat, derbies, and other things prove. He plans to start at the bottom of the hog business out in a Milwaukee slaughter house. Griff William Griffith Couser, AKE Delta Kappa Epsilon House Dover, N. H. Prepared at Manchester High School Varsity Soccer Team (3, 4); Varsity Swimming Squad (3, 4}; Class Basket- ball (1); Y.M.C.A. Cabinet (3); Major Subject: Greek. Griff Couser transferred to Wesleyan from the University of New Hampshire in his sophomore year. Like his co-New Englander, Cal Coolidge, Griff is not over-loquacious and consequently is not as prominent in Senate meetings as Ralph Bischoff nor as notorious on the campus as Swede Herrlich. Griff ' s talent for soccer was brought forth under the bril- liant tutelage of Butch McCurdy, and he has represented the alma mater for the past two years on the smaller gridiron. Griff ' s greatest genius lies in the musical art. He developed a magnificent snore with a crescendo climax in Hughie Smith ' s music course last spring. After graduation Griff may be located in the far reaches of the great open spaces of Dover, N. H. Seventy-six W ' k d. T ■■? Dolly John Carpenter Dabney, Y Psi Upsilon House Cambridge, Mass. Prepared at Williston Academy Mystical Seven; Varsity Football Squad (2); Assistant Manager of Basket ' ' (3); Manager (4)- Class Football (1); Glee Club (1); Chafel Choir (2): Major Subject: English. A bit of old New England transplanted to and thriving in the virgin soil of our campus — Dolly of the Cambridge Dabneys. Believing thoroughly in the dignity of labor our hero has several times donned the cotton gloves and has become, hence, the demon agent of Wes- Wes. The way Yacobs has suited the en- tire college body and the satisfaction of Chesterfields are due to this slashing, sar- torial salesman. In addition to this he has found time to be the guide, philoso- pher and friend of the Basketball team. He has again been efficiency expert in all of Middletown ' s greatest industries, and has nev er forgotten Morpheus. Jack Albert Joseph Dalton, C.C. Commons Club House New London, Conn. Prepared at Chapman Technical High School Varsity Cross Country Team (2); Var- sity Track Squad (2, 3); Suninminy Managership Qualificattions (2); IPrc- Medical Club (3. 4); President 14): Woods Hole Scholarship (4); Major Subject: Biology. Mr. Dalton lives in New London, Conn, which is famous for its sailor ' s sweethearts, retired bootleggers, and Yale- Harvard drinking bouts. Mr. Dalton ' s greatest claim to fame undoubtedly lies in the fact that he is Professor Green- leaf ' s right hand man, and assistant in the Biology laboratory. It is understood that Dalton is a great favorite with the Professor largely because they both smoke the same brand of cigarette — Old Golds. It is rumored that a book is shortly to be edited by Dalton and Fau- ver on the subject, Relative medical values of blue, pink, and cerise colored pills. Scventx-seven 75F Dave David Magie Day, X Chi Psi Lodge Greenwich, Conn. Prepared at Greenwich High School Varsity Cross Country Squad (2); Va sity Football Squad (3); Varsity Swim- ming Squad (3, 4) ; Varsity Track Squad (1) ; Class Football (3) : Class Soccer (3) ; Assistant Manager Dramatics (3) ; Paint and Powder Club (3) ; Major Sub- ject: Mathematics. Rumor has it that next year Dave Day is to hang out his shingle with the title Matrimonial Agent appended thereto. His career at Wesleyan has given him abundant preparation for his life ' s work, for seldom has Dave been at a loss to supply a woman for his less fortunate brothers at dance week-ends. Strictly adhering to his duties, ou r benefactor has displayed great philanthropy when he could not find partners for all of the boys, by showing an earnest willingness to share and share alike with those who have been left destitute. Hank Henry Nelson DeWick, AY Delta Upsilon House West Haven, Conn. Prepared at West Haven High School Honor Roll (2, 3); Major Subject: Psy- chology. Hank was a good boy until he struck the psychology department. Now he ' s old reliable himself when the nice girls call the house. If there are any stories flying around, trust them to land on Henry from whom they emanate most rapidly to anyone who will listen. Many of the sophs have decided to major in psych after hearing Henry ' s stories and reading his books or papers. Lucky indeed is Henry to be alive these days. His midnight rallies for the team have almost been his misdoing. The early-to-beds frequently decided to drown him in the tub, but his keen sense of humor bulled the boys back to sleep before the good deed could be exe- cuted.

' With shining laurels on his head, grave Dunham, though with heart that bled at leaving home and mother, took leave of dear old Horace Mann and caught the train for Wesleyan, resolved to gain of laurel crowns another. And with de- meanor affable, he soon came into capital by winning prizes here and prizes there. Of cuts he got unlimited, and when his junior year had fled, a Phi Bete key he wore which matched the color of his hair. Quod erat demonstrandum.

Prepared at Matawan High School Delta Sigma Rho ; Debate Council (4); Varsity Debate (1, 2, 3, 4); Class Debate (2); Honor Roll (4); Major Subject: History and Government. Harry ' s great ambition is to be an hon- est lawyer. This may seem a colossal task, but if you know Harry as we know Harry you would never doubt for an instant that he can easily accomplish this feat. He abhors drinking, smoking, pet- ting, swearing, etc., etc. He is not swayed by the mob. His ideas are his own and he stands by them. Many honest lawyers have lost their honesty through the wiles of some alluring vamp but we know that Harry will never succumb to such temptations. His character while at Wesleyan has been of the highest calibre and the world will find him invulnerable to its many traps and snares. Harry ' s greatest delight has been to oppose with honest arguments the schemes of poli- ticians in class meetings — to no avail. Seventy-nine Jerry George Elbert Farrar, Jr., AY Delta Upsilon House Meriden, Conn. Prepared at Pennington School Track Managership Qualifications (2); Atwater Club (3, 4); President (4); Honor Roll (3); Major Subject: Chem- istry. Jerry is steward of the Hexicon Club and thus finds it rather difficult to keep many friends. Being the son of a Meth- odist minister, he goes to chapel regu- larly, after his cuts have been used, and although he vigorously denies it, rumor says he once attended a Y. M. C. A. meet- ing and took an active part in the lively discussion which followed the speaker ' s address. He lives at the D. U. House for a few hours each night, the rest of his time being spent in that delightful labora- tory of chemistry in Judd Hall. At pres- ent Jerry intends to enter Medical School — any one that will take him. He should pros per in one of those Doctor-Florist- ' Undertaker combination businesses found in some of our smaller villages. t Colonel Robert Tyson Fitzhugh, $N© Phi Nu Theta House Wiestminister, Md. Prepared at Donaldson School Class Soccer (3); Argus Board (2, 3); Student Surve Committee (4); Willbur Fisk Scholar ' (4): Honor Roll (3, 4); Major Subject: English. It is queer that Bob has acquired most of his southern twang since coming North. Perhaps this is because of its effects on Professors in general and one in particular. He has endeared himself with his Professors to quite a degree, first, by giving Baerg examples of pecul- iar constructions, and secondly, by giv- ing outstandingly frank expressions of his opinions at unexpected moments. This same unreservedness may be noted in the social field, especially verbally. But al- though the girls don ' t seem to appre- ciate him there is something about Bob ' s individuality, — nay, uniqueness, — and his entire temperament that makes conversa- tion with him worth while. Although glasses may fly and hammers fall Bob will be the same Tyson from Maryland. ' ifi, Eighty gr. Gurnee Addison Gurnee Gallien, N0 Phi Nu Theta House Upper Montclair, N. J. Prepared at Montclair High School Senate (3); Varsitv Basketball Squad (1, 2, 3); Class Basketball (1, 2, 3, 4); Football Managership Qualifications (2) ; Golf Manager (3); Dormitory Commit- tee (4); Major Subject: Philosophy. All good things must come to an end sometime. Gurnee will miss the friend- ships formed at college very much. But, just where he is to turn his attention is as yet undecided. Business and teaching, preferably at a boys ' preparatory school, seem to hold out equal attraction for him. The latter will no doubt survive, because of the authoritative dignity of such an office and because this position offers him an opportunity to form intimate acquaint- ances with young boys. Associations of this type make Gurnee ' s life worth living. We only hope that when he arrives at his Boys ' School he will not be mistaken for a freshman. Tell them that you are a professor, Gurnee; they will believe you. Heinle Henry Williams Gould, X Chi Psi Lodge Ridgewood, N. J. Prepared at Blair Academy Rosa Club (4); Honor Roll (4); Major Subject: Mathematics. Heinie Google disclaims all relation- ship with the famous Barney, but is, nevertheless, the Spark Plug of Chi Psi ' s 1927 delegation. Heinie ' s radiant feat- ures have been embellished ( ?) during the past year by the acquisition of an em- bryo moustache and a misfit derby. In spite of these detriments, the ubiquitous grin — so reflective of internal disorder — has failed to disappear. The college career of the diminutive Heinie nearly came to a rude end about two years ago, but our hero substantiated the theory that a drowning man will cling to a straw, and by exercising a judicious selection of courses since that time he has shown his ability to make good. Mathematics is his strong point, and dur- ing vacations Heinie has considerably augmented his knowledge of figures by regular attendance at the risque Broad- way productions. Y T.

Hardly anyone around Binghamton had heard of Wesleyan, so the cherubic Ken was sent there. Because he knew no bet- ter he went Chi Psi, and after acclimat- ing himself he soon acquired so much power (he is number one at the lawdge) that those who were not captivated by his geniality bowed to his versatility. He joined the Glee Club for diversion, and to avoid the feminine rush which invariably followed his appearance he took to fall- ing downstairs, a habit which has won for him the facetious nick-name Ful- pint. Fauver says he proved to be a good swimming manager when present at the meets in body, instead of spirits only. • ' Harv Harvey Beecher Gram, AA$ Alpha Delta Phi House Washington, D. C.

With experience gathered voluntarily at other colleges before coming to Wes- leyan, Harvey began a career which proved eventful and varied. Down but never out was the motto of his first year with us. Between trying to run to North- ampton, turning the Alpha Delts into a noiseless and dry bunch, and involving himself in most of the political conspira- cies of the campus, Doc s last year has been very busy. Yes, Doc-Fixit has one prescription which cures all ills. The warm-hearted Harvey realizes the conveniences of New York as compared with Washington and hence will sell his bonds amongst his carpet bag friends (R.M., R.B.) instead of down in his white man ' s country. li ' ' ' Eighty-two aIr ■ 3 5 ' _ 9 Charles Charles Edwin Green 65 North College Greenwich, Conn. Prepared at Greenwich High School Honor Roll (4) ; Major Subject: French. Here we find the philosopher. He is a quiet, retiring unassuming lad. He pre- fers the solitude of his room to the tumult of the campus. So close does he keep to his quarters that it makes us wonder whether he has a dark secret locked in his closet. He never shows what goes on in his mind. There he has us at a disadvantage, for he remains a mystery, and we are the open book. But the world is skillful in probing deep into these calm, unruffled boys and some day the deep, dark secret that is hiding from us will be unearthed. At present the only one who understands Charlie Green is Gramp Green. Still waters run deep, and perhaps some day the elite of the class will be chagrined to see the mys- tery gazing philosophically down at them.

Doc transferred from the University of Maryland, which was the institution that beat Yale last fall. Doc has spent the winter in telling the campus that fact, and his latest time in the back stroke. This tall, dark, broad shouldered boy makes a tremendous hit with women. We don ' t mind his getting the letters, but we object to his reading them aloud. But we must admit that such popularity must be deserved, and we shudder to think of the great num- ber of fair young ladies who will develop ailments as soon as this lovely Lothario gets his M.D. Eighty-three 5 — -v_.-,- - , --- T rfT ' ; ■ Chet Chester William Hampel 32 Burr Avenue Cohoes, N.

He is a member of the Middletown Medical Corps. This fact ought to put his high school of Cohoes, New York, in the What ' s What in America . Chet left us in his third year, saying that he was in danger of a nervous breakdown and needed a rest. A half year of his absence was spent at the New York State College, which is co-ed. Wesleyan got a rejuvenated man on his return. Yet, he was mistaken for a professor of Ethics — also a chef and a count.

K. D. soon learned to forget his um- brella after joining our ranks, and is still learning things. He is the only member of the class to take a girl to one dance and directly get bids from various girls to tour different Proms. Later he resigned the presidency of the local chapter of the Y. The last step was to consider studying history the rest of his life, including senior year; y et his thoughtful character and general good nature will always make his company en- joyable.

Hops Henry, business man, philosopher, entered Wesleyan with the class of 1926, but was on a leave of absence during sophomore year. Returning to the schol- arly sanctity of academic life, he brought with him a tang of the practical world of commerce. Since then he has been apply- ing the principles of super-salesmanship to the capturing of culture. His aspira- tions lead to business after graduation, then to Oxford, and back to steel lockers again. His constructive criticism fre- quently involves him in discussion, nay, even argument, and although he is gen- erally a man ot lew words, tie enjoys a debate as well as the late Prof. Peck.

Methodically unmethodical, — morose at times because he feels himself to be an emissary of the devil. The devil wouldn ' t know how to use him if Ken were his servant. Don ' t ever try to tell him any- thing new concerning Henry VIII, Louis XIV, Catherine de Medicis, or any of that crowd, — he knows more about them than you do. He never fails to make a list of New Year ' s resolutions, always takes home more books over the holidays than anyone else — he studies them ! His diary will be worth a lot of money some day. He seems interested in religion, at least he has a biblical quotation for every occasion at his tongue ' s end.

Ever since Walter occupied a cozy corner room in O. H. (old hole) he has had a burning passion to emulate the deeds of the men of old. — in fact so great is his admiration for the past masters of his- tory that he feels a call to preach the past to the children of the third and fourth generations ! However, Walter has one other aim in life. He hopes to find a real fairy princess some day, but alas, fairyland seems to close its doors each time this ardent youth sets foot upon its threshold. When the roll is called up yonder we all hope that Wal- ter can answer aye to both require- ments. Eighty-si.r i Ted Edward Lorenzo Hubler, AXP Alpha Chi Rho House Gordon, Penna.

The liead of the local chapter came to Wesleyan an unsophisticated coal heaver from the back country. By hard work, however, he developed into a big man, — big enough, in fact, to withstand the slanderous attacks of our campus nonentity and give opinions on Cardi- nal contributors ' keen insight into fem- inine psychology. His development is demonstrated by his bravery in saving forty dollars (saved for a trip to Car- lisle) and half a pair of trousers from the Alpha Chi Rho fire ; and his sophis- tication, by his own statement, — I ' m an atheist, — thank God.

Very early in his college course Sid and Tony Hauck began giving the vocal duets in the tile walled precincts of Clark Hall that won them much acclaim. Sid has since risen to a place on the Jibers and is reputed to have made the Glee Club trips, though it is not on record that he showed up for all the concerts. Be that as it may, he has sung and danced more girls away from the men who paid their Prom bills than any man we know. In his line Sid is such a man as never was on land or sea before. Sid did not seem to have much enthusiasm for psy- chology until one of the later meetings when psychoanalysis was discussed.

This gentleman pictured above is one of those few seekers and enthusiasts of knowledge whom Robert Frost delights in. It is evidenced by the fact that R.

Bob has weathered the storm of four years at Delta Tau, and has emerged as one-half of the dele- gation. Congratulations ! He is known for sticking to the job, and doing what is required of him, even though there be no personal gain, and for having a trait so scarce on a college campus, he should get beyond Cataumet. He should also be congratulated for his economy and re- sultant dividend in the Olla Pod. Dune Donald MacLaren Jack, Y Psi Upsilon House Springfield, Mass.

Most great men are dead, and Dune hasn ' t been feeling well himself, thanks. Although this colorful ole ' Scotchman has hardly had a checked career (he in- sists on cash) since fleeing from the per- secutions of a Scotch Tag Day, he has been steadily successful. He is now Big Bailiff of Basketball, Master Mind of each snappy session of the Jack- Bischoff Forensic and Campus-problem Study Society, and Keeper of the Hedge. He also gives his presence (only) to each Sunday morning ' s chapel collection. While figuratively majoring in analyt he is an ardent devotee of the cultural Greek, but honestly takes his Diogenes lightly.

Despite the handicap of a preliminary education at Horace Mann, Sam has sailed through the obstacles in his path toward a sheepskin with comparative ease. With the aid of his colorful Jor- dan, he has accomplished the broaden- ing side of his college training by rather frequent expeditions into the not- unknown regions to the north. It is se- riously whispered that with this back- ground, Sam, true to his tendency to favor things novel and unique, intends to cast his lot with some new idea in the field of photography. Whatever he does, however, we feel that Sam, with his genuine good nature and his dry wit, is hardly in a position to be overlooked by success. ' P Jeff Harry Jefferis ! , i Ivy Hall ' ' ' Newark, N.

JefT came to the conclusion after he reached Wesleyan that college and high school are two entirely different proposi- tions. Consequently he laid aside his youthful social and athletic glories for the beloved books, and Hera help him, English books ! For three years few knew JefT, mired as he was in the insig- 1 nificance of honor grades, stunted by mathematics, and warped by psychology. Suddenly the Cardinal discovered a ge- nius other than Halsted Clapp on the campus. A writer of fairy tales and bed- time stories came to light. Over night, or as near that as anyone would read the publication, Jeff became famous. Now his ambition is to rest in a bathtub flow- ing with wine a nd money.

U. he transferred to Wesleyan because his mother was anxious that he should as- sociate with a better class of boys. Harry is rather quiet. This trait has rendered him invaluable as an assistant in the Col- lege Library, where he enjoys his work and the associations which it affords. He has not confined his activities to the cam- pus, but has taken part in the commer- cial life of the city of Middletowu, hav- ing presided over the haberdashery de- partment of one of Middletown ' s great mercantile houses.

Bill, or Satchel, as he is called, took it into his head to follow in the foot- steps of his brother ; so he came to us in his junior year. During this short period Satch has got around to make a name for himself in the Eastern col- leges for women, in spite of his innate laziness. It would never do for Bill to be a watchman ; he can ' t keep awake over his books. A little globe trotting this summer and Bill will return to the sleepy hamlet of Mt.

Here we have Middletown ' s ' ' butter and egger. Jim has always had a drag around the campus because he has a near relative acting in the capacity of trustee at Clark Hall. As a philanthropist he rates very high, since he built our new library one summer, carrying pails of water to the materialists. His literary aspirations have resulted in a Phi Beta Kappa grind which may win a free dinner for him at Stueck ' s Tavern. We don ' t know whether it was the dinner or the gold plaque which spurred him into the scramble for obliv- ion among the intellectual autocracy. Like all good looking boys, life will be easy for Jim. George George Beresford King, $N0 Phi Nu Theta House Brooklyn, N. Y.

King has been our most notable com- muter. There are two perils that menace the New York, Middletown, New York Commuters Society. The first is that some one of the mischances, which al- ways threaten members of this society, may derelict one of these journeymen on the far end of the circuit. The second menace is found in certain annoying rul- ings on grades which force wayward travelers to remain in the land of men and cease their traveling. King, by virtue of a business-like appearance, has buf- faloed the Economics Department and evaded this last. Upon the point of suc- cumbing to the first, a most miraculous blister snatched him into safety. ■ c Ninety-one 7 - ,-— -ID-C vz rca-.

The rural dialect which the Bay- bohn was brought up on comes to the fore in times of crises, and puts to shame the Finchley scarf and Dobbs hat. His voice is responsible for his going to the so-called Singing College of New Eng- land, and has been no small factor in the argument arising over this title. His fame is based upon his spending vacations in New York, ostensibly with a boy friend, actually in over-two-night stays with girl friends, who evidently are as aware as we of his entertaining personality and mu- sical talent. iij Chuck William Charles Knef, B0n Beta Theta Pi House Newark, N.

Cal should be admired for his ability to isolate himself from his native envi- ronment of Jersey City and from almost anything else. Wesleyan ' s boy prodigy has probably done more for the college in the outer world with his almost total concentration on the Glee Club, jibing, and fiddling than any other member of the class. His musical talent and artist ' s spicy temperament (or temper) have made us enjoy contacts with him all the more. As for his experiences with women — ask any Glee Clubber , Jersey Cityite, or Middletown toll operator. Barney Abram Barnett Langdale, 4 N© Phi Nu Theta House Brooklyn, N. Y. Prepared at Boys ' High School Varsity Soccer Squad (2); Swimming Managership Qualifications (2); Class Football (1): Class Soccer (2); Camp Prize (2); Honor Roll (4); Major Sub- ject: English. Barney has shown spasmodic and va- ried outbursts of real ability and energy as is evidenced by his Olla Pod points : Camp prize (2) ; Portland (3) ; Group 1 on Honor Roll (4). His fine proportions are those of an athlete, but although the flesh may be willing the mind is not so inclined. Indeed it has been very spas- modically that Barney ' s superior mental abilities have been evidenc ed as they have his last year. Variety seems to be the spice of his life — but only one thing at a time. Each year has witnessed a differ- ent activity, each one being carried through to the limits of his ability. We who see him daily enjoy the companion- ship of his mind and his chronic contrari- ness. V ; : ' f ' : ' Ninety-three ' {) - - j i Larry Francis Eliot Larrabee, AY Delta Upsilon House Waterville, Maine Prepared at Waterville High School Honor Roll (1, 3); Major Subject- Phi- losophy. Larry is one of our most typical Maine-iacs. Until this year he was an enthusiastic Epworth Leaguer, but rumor has it that she went away to col- lege this year. At 9 :30, just about the time most of us are beginning to get down to studying, Larry gets ready for bed, so that by 10 o ' clock loud snores from the adjoining room assure us that he is sleeping heavily. Without exaggeration, he is probably the laziest fellow in his fraternity in regard to everything except his studies, and those social activities which promote his own welfare exclu- sively. Despite this handicap we all ex- pect to see his name in Who ' s Who as one of our leading Philosophers — a pro- tege of the Armstrong-Kruse combine, and a result of Vaka ' s assistantship. Ducky Richard James Lea, Y Psi Upsilon House Sandusky, Ohio Prepared at North High School, Co- lumbus Pi Delta Epsilon; Assistant Manager Tennis (3); Manager (4); ' Wasp Board (1, 2, 3, 4); Editor-in-Chief (4); Pub- lications Board (4); Major Subject: English. As the guiding genius behind Poor Richard ' s Wasp , Duckey has imbued that fun-loving spirit into the breast, if not the pockets, of all, and has oft times dispelled fits of gloom with peals of laughter. Beginning a brilliant career as the sixty-five-pound quarterback on the Grace Church team, Sandusky, he has continued his athletic capriciousness since coming to Wesleyan and is now manager of Tennis. In the life of each and every party, this diminutive Lochinvar has made his services invaluable, for he is a home loving boy, and never forgets his com- pass. As a European cosmopolite of water last, Richie has been God ' s an- swer to the Wesleyan boys who rpissed Queen Marie.

Prepared at Mount Vernon High School Baseball Managership Qualifications (2); Class Baseball (1) ; Song Leader (2, 3, 4); Glee Club (1.2): Jibers (2); West- gate Club (4); Chapel Choir (4); Major Subject : History. If you ever hear a thin voice saying, Is tha-a-a-t so? turn about sharply and you will discern Mr. Howard Logan, whose likeness, though you thought it was Lefty Flynn. appears above. Mr. Logan is a man of brain, not brawn. An authority on all things historical, his mind resembles a bibliography of all the history books in the Wesleyan, Yale, and Russell Libraries. Mr. Logan claims to have been born and bred in Texas, which is doubtful ; to be a singer of parts, which is true; to be a song-leader of no mean ability, which is rot ; and to be a clever dancer of the Charlesburg, which has been proved. And there you are. M Chaiincc Chauncey Hart Lowrey, r Gamma Psi House Waterbury, Conn. Prepared at Crosby High School Varsity Cross Country Squad (3); Var- sity Track Squad (3); Major Subject: Economics. Almost four years ago Chauncey came over from Waterbury to Middletown on the trolley car to get a college education. He got it — plus. Not only has he become an ardent bookworm but he has also be- come adept in taking care of the late library cat, and an expert in the perplex- ing game of chess. Chauncey is one of those seniors who major in two subjects — one in his Junior year and one in his Senior. Without doubt the progress of psychology has been retarded by the re- moval of this eminent scholar from that field to economics. It is always the dirty dollar that gets the men in the end. =.VV?rff ' ?;TT= j__. . Ninety- five x.J Buck Elmore Brown Lyford, AXP Alpha Chi Rho House Bridgeport, Conn. Prepared at Bridgeport High School Class Football (2, 3} ; Wasp Board (2, 3. 4); Literary Editor (4); Class Banquet Committee (2); Rosa Club (2, 3, 4); Major Subject: Physics. Buck is something of a Dr. Jekyl. Os- tensibly owing allegiance to the class of twenty-seven, his heart is with the class of twenty-six, with whom he entered college. During his absence he buried himself in physical research and later emerged with a new hoodinkle for a radio that brought him many press notices and less royalties. Buck, however, is a man of parts and cannot content himself with his success in science. After graduation, by his own confession, he will either go into the bond business or the movies. He offers the above picture as his credentials. We would suggest the latter, as it might add to one of Herb Connelly ' s Wesleyan pub- licity reels. ' ' f Mac Adrian Francis McDonald 23 Fairview Street Portland, Conn. Prepared at Portland High School Class Baseball (1); Major Subject: Latin. We have all heard the little song about McDonald who had a farm. Wesleyan has one Adrian Francis McDonald, but as far as we know, the above-mentioned song was not written in his honor despite the fact that he does hail from the village known as Portland. Mac , as we call him, is always seen with rosy cheeks, turned-up nose, and stooped posture. Many of us have often inquired for his recipe for colorful cheeks, but Mac isn ' t giving away any secrets. Perhaps Bromo Seltzer gives the desired results, for I know Mac is an ardent enthusiast of Emerson ' s concoction. Mac can be seen most any day at the Wesleyan store mixing drinks, and if he isn ' t too sleepy, you will find him very willing to take out time to relate to you some of his famous escapades to Higganum. I - Ninetv-six ' -- ' ie - d H ; ■ Mac John Stewart McNeilly, Jr., AXP Alpha Chi Rho House Upper Montclair, N. J. Prepared at Montclair High School Classical Club (2, 3, 4); Major Subject: Greek. Mac, whose nickname was Stew until his conversion last spring, is quite above this college life. He came here an experienced and dignified man of the world. Only favored friends saw the in- terior of his North College apartments, but the chosen few entered in awe and emerged inspired. He led his class in de- fiance of McCurdy and occupies a nook of fame as the only man to go on censure for overcutting soccer thirteen times. He was a bear with the ladies until he fell in love and put a stop to it by getting mar- ried last summer. This year, at last, he has adequate opportunity for demonstra- tion of his social finesse. He is head waiter at the house, especially appreciated by him because of the increased numbers of social functions that go with a brand new house. M. w Mac Robert Shuter Macrum, Jr., B0n Beta Theta Pi House Philadelphia, Pa. Prepared at Silver Bay Major Subject: English. Shute ; ' ■ Baabe . When Baabe first put in his appearance from Silver Bay School with thoughts immaculate, as they described him at prep school, we thought that a second John Wesley had enrolled in our midst. A short acquaint- ance dispelled all our trepidations on that account, however, and we found that Baabe was just an ordinary American boy. He has been described by one of his professors as a Dilettante . Baabe scorns marks, professor-scutting, and the like. He likes to get down to the basis of things and to get his own personal reaction to all things artistic. We shall always remember him for his individual- ity, his peculiar physique, his great- heartedness, and his quiet good humor. He recently joined the anti-Olla Pod point club . -m Ninety-seven ' , ' IVcs Wesley Wooley Marple 39 North College Trenton, N. J. Prepared at Trenton High School Honor Roll (4): Major Subject: Eco- nomics. Wes is one of the most industrious members of the class. He is well known on the campus as the Wesleyan Store ' s mcst efficient clerk. He is also chief fac- totum at the College Dining Hall. In this capacity he succeeds nine times out of ten in having the food blessed by some- bo ly who did not expect to be called upon to fulfill that function. Because of his industry in holding down these two jobs, Wes is seldom seen without a white coat. We hope that after gradu- ation he will become a barber, drug clerk, dentist, or waiter, as this garb i.i most becoming to him. li Ed WiLLi.

Eddie subscribes to the Holyoke Scream. We wondered why until one day we looked over his shoulder and read the headlines, Cannonball Martin, home town boy, beats Williams . Ed is just as quiet and warm as a day in June — until roused — and then even the barkeeper ducks. And is he talented? He plays every musical instrument known to man, from the oboe to the zither, and some of the selections from his Old Bar Room Ballads are truly marvelous. It has become a tradition that he usually stags at the dances. ■ Ninety-eight ' ) 0(g Herb Herbert Gordon May Foss House Fair Haven, Vt. Prepared at Fair Haven High School Junior Honors; Honor Major Subject: Phil- Phi Beta Kappa ; Roll (1, 2, 3, 4) o.tophy. Text: Habakkuk 1.13 Herb is a product of the Fairhaven High School in Vermont. He has that sweet, maple sugar disposition which is characteristic of the boys from those hills. Doubtless through his efforts innumerable lost souls will be saved and the wayward ones be kept on the straight and narrow path. His four years at Wesleyan have offered him a large field in which to ex- periment for his future life work. Peo- ple seldom put a great amount of faith in prayer. However, it would be difficult to see just how he got his Phi Bete key, unless one takes into consideration the fact that Providence may have played an important part. Amen. Mike John Davis Mixsell, B01i Beta Theta Pi House Bethlehem, Pa. Prepared at Choate School Junior Week Committee (3); Paint and Powder Club (1, 2. 3, 4); Major Subject: French. J. Davis Mixsell favored Wesleyan with his presence and wardrobe upon fin- ishing at Choate. He first came into the limelight four years ago, when he graced the steps of North College as Co- lumbine or the Rose Girl in the Com- mencement play. It was a great event for him when his initiation into one of the fraternities occurred and he received the pin of the society, for he had a wager with a certain friend that he could have more women wear his pin during four years than he could. Rumor has it that number twelve is just about to receive it. John hopes to be one of those men of steel with the Bethlehem Steel Corp. upon graduation. - 2 j -- XT ' ■ ■ ■- Nvicfy-mne ? Ccd John Cedric Morris, X Chi Psi Lx dge Fair Haven, Vt. Prepared at Fair Haven High School Senate (4); Class Basketball (1, 2, 3. 4): Captain (2); Major Subject: Math- ematics. The vivacity of Cedric Morris, famed resident of Poultney, Vermont, has been impaired only by a succession of broken collar bones during his Junior year. His celerity of speech and manner, when not carrying a sling, has won him the appel- lation of Nurmi. J. Cedric is a unique speed boy, however, for it is believed that not even his nose would run, if he should suffer from a cold in the head. Nurmi spends his summers in the quarries up around Vermont, where he is employed at the prodigious task of breaking stone. We hope that this is no indication of his life ' s work, for if quan- tity of work counts towards parole, Nurmi would be in for life. Jerry Jerald Barnum Newton, C.C. Commons Club House South Kent, Conn. Prepared at Kent High School and Mount Hermon Senate (4); Cross Country Team (2, 3, 4); Captain (4); Varsity Track Squad (1, 2); Team (3, 4); Intramural Athletic Council (3, 4) ; Major Subject: English. Jerry Newton was initiated into college atmosphere in beautiful O. H. It was there that he got his first cross country training, escaping from the multitude of centipedes. His real worth soon became apparent when he proved himself to be Toby Potter ' s only rival for the position of sultan of O. H. After transferring his abode to the sacred precincts of C. C, Newt became a famous sleuth, winning the name of The Great Detective. In this capacity Detective Newton tracked down numerous crimes and kept the rough stuff well in hand at C. C. He also surprised the boys when he branched out as an ardent devotee of the Y wres- tles. Newt, by the way, is the only man that can study in his sleep, and at no other time.

Prepared at Melrose High School Senate (4); Varsity Track Squad (1, 2, 3, 4): Honor Roll (4); Major Subject: Mathematics. Ted, with Harvard at his back door, chose Wesleyan as his Alma Mater. He comes from Boston, which accounts for his admiration for the beanery. He started out to be a track man, but finished as a mathematical hurdler. His ambi- tion is to write a book on How to Play Bridge, but we all feel that some day he will be caretaker of an apple orchard, for his pet aversion is baked apples. But Fate could not be so ironical and Ted will no doubt continue the good work he has started at Wesleyan. He is a con- genial lad and makes friends very easily. As President of the Independents he did much to better the organization, as well as being one of the prime factors in its origin. Mike John Charles O ' Malley, AA Alpha Delta Phi House East Orange, N. J. Prepared at New York Military Academy Varsity Surimming Team (3); Major Subject: English. John Charles O ' Malley, alias Mike , alias Michael , alias Red Mike , alias Rabbi , alias Mizter Cohen , is per- haps the most notorious yegg in Middle- sex County — certainly the most hard- boiled. Three freshmen delegations have bowed to his iron will and low cunning. You could tell it by one look at his face (except when he shaves.) Mike ' s favorite sport is sleeping, with swimming a close second. Like all crim- inals, his nature shows some striking con- tradictions, and he is often observed fur- tively reading poetry. He has also one fatal weakness : shrimp salad. Further- more, he has tried to compete with One- and-a-half gun Tunnell as a speed de- mon, and can ' t quite make the grade. Mike thinks that suicide is sometimes justifiable. XS-. One Hundred One i 1 Parky Clinton Fred Parkinson, B0n Beta Theta Pi House Salem, N. H.

Parky decided to brave the wiles of college and thus escape a life of seclu- sion at Hall ' s Crossing, Salem Depot, N. H. Some call him Sparky, but one of his friends caught him at one of his - childish tricks one day and nicknamed him Babe . Babe has been a track man while at Wesleyan, and has increased his speed during his four years here. He loves to amuse his friends, and after much practice has acquired quite some ability at juggling bottles, playing but- ton, button, who ' s got the button ? and rendering Kitten on the Keys . fcf ? Tom Thomas Knappen Perry, AKE Delta Kappa Epsilon House Grand Rapids, Mich. Prepared at Pasadena High School Varsity Swimming Squad (1); Class Swimming (1); Spinney Prise (3); Major Subject: Greek. Like young Lochinvar, Mr. Perry rode out of the West, not on a fiery charger, but in the comfortable driving seat of a Chrysler sport (advt.). It is rumored that young Mr. Perry sacked a city be- fore he bought the Chrysler, and this rumor has the ring of truth, or where else could a million dollars come from? Not Netherby, but Northampton, not Ellen, but another golden-haired lady lured Mr. Perry from west of the great divide into our midst. During the past year Mr. Perry ' s manner has changed, has become more serious, more peaceful. From certain remarks he has made, many friends believe he has decided to take the vows of Holy Church.

Mr. Phelps was born, raised, and has since spent his summer vacations in Mid- dletown, Conn., the town of corn-fed mamas and pleasingly-plump, rosy- cheeked policemen. Dr. Phelps ' crown- ing glory is his beautiful blond, curly head of hair. This, more than any one thing, probably accounts for his wide popularity, especially at Syracuse Uni- versity, Trinity, and the New Haven Col- lege of Physical Education. He spends his summer vacations at Methodist camp meetings and other assemblies. Mr. Phelps is better known as the Phantom of Judd Hall, where he spends the greater share of his time in making blood tests of library cats. Phelps is best known to the younger set as the Big Three of Brainerd -Avenue. Pier Lawrence Pierpont, Jr. 69 North College Greensburg, Pa. Prepared at Glens Falls High School Major Subject: Psychology. Larry arrived from Glens Falls with two heavy suitcases and a strong urge to make Phi Beta Kappa. But alas, be- fore he reached his room a fair maiden crossed his path, whereupon he dropped his suitcases and abandoned the urge. His departure for Law school will not only be a great loss for Wesleyan ; it will also be the signal for lamentation among the ladies of Middletown and its suburbs. If he can address a jury as well as he describes his nocturnal adventures, his success as a lawyer will be phenomenal. Together with Prof. English he is a great interpreter of dreams, having attended several lectures on Freud. Dreams are O. K. if not related to such disciples of Freud. ,V ?= ,.- One Hundred Three ' ■ ' . -iifc. Pete George Lincoln Plimpton, Jr., AKE Delta Kappa Epsilon House Tilton, N. H. Prepared at Tilton School Major Subject: English. George Lincoln Plimpton, Jr. — an aris- tocratic New England name. Aristocrat? No, Pete is a true Christian so long as it doesn ' t interfere with needed and cher- ished sleep. New England ? Yes — to the core. When he came to college he didn ' t play cyards with the fellers, ' cause he had an idear that cyards might interfere with wurk . After being exposed to the heathen dialect of the fighting Meth- odists for four years, he has acquired a new speech, new actions, and even a new idea or two. He is far more likely to play bridge all day, study all night, and sleep through chapel than ever before. He spends his spare time making subtle wise cracks which, thankfully, pass over most of our heads. If we got them per- haps the Deke average would suffer, since those we do see through ruin any se- rious bull session. W Stub Harold Vinton Potter, Y Psi Upsilon House Hamburg, N. H.

The phenomenal downhill development of Hamburg ' s favorite son is permanently emblazoned on the trouble reports in the Wesleyan office. Since the destruction of his ministerial ideals two months after his matriculation, Harold ' s activities have resembled those of his Culver friend, Mr. Menjou. His air both literally and fig- uratively always debonair has in the last two years become dandiacal. Spats, starched collars, and an impeccable shirt front have subjugated religion and edu- cation to a lower level.

Prepared at Middletown High School Major Subject: Psychology. Dave has a system of preparing for exams that beats studying. The night before an exam he assembles the savants of the course for a sem. Coming into this with broadminded ignorance he soaks up knowledge as rapidly as his fellows disgorge it, so that on the morrow he crashes through by mere regurgitation. Dave began his college career at the Con- necticut Agricultural institution, where he was a member of En. Being a native of Middletown, however, the lure of the big city soon attracted him to Wesleyan. Dave is headed for the advertising field. His greatest achievement this year was shortly after Thanksgiving, when he got Thursday mixed with Sunday on the church calendar.

George is not nearly so gruff a charac- ter as he wants you to believe. His low- pitched voice at times sounds as though arising in a cavern, and sometimes he acts as though Lord Chesterfield never existed. He evidently wants to seem un- polished. George participated in the Commencement Play of ' 26 and in this year ' s Prom production, as well as dab- bling in theatricals about town. His vo- cational inclination is toward automotive engineering, already having built for him- self a mongrel vehicle. He might land in the East as a teacher of mathematics and physics, while if all else fails the ministry is left. This much is certain : wherever George goes his pipe will go. Herb Herbert Fitz Randolph, Jr., AA$ Alpha Delta Phi House Philadelphia, Pa. Prepared at Western High School, Wash- ington Debate Council (2); Varsity Debate Team (4) ; Major Subject), Philosophy. There is nothing funny about Herb except his face. Anybody who can steer fifteen old maids through Constantinople and Paris has got to be taken seriously. Herb is a man of parts : a traveler, a philosopher, a debater, and a sheik. His silver tongue is admirably set off by a Webster face and a Clay hand. We will all be sorry to see Herb go, because beneath a modest exterior and a Marcelle wave, he hides a sterling char- acter and the taste of a genuine connois- seur. After Gram ' s hard-fisted regime during the first semester, the Alpha Delts resumed their usual dry and ' ' noise- less dances under Prexy Herb.

The outlook for him appears particularly bright since he has already saved one of his brothers from the fiery fumace ! With one conversion to his credit, the road looks easy. However, Ted recently purchased a second hand Ford, and with the aid of this instrument of the devil and the combined forces of his brothers it is hoped that he will yet see the light.

It is unfortunate that in a write-up of this type Scoop cannot be referred to as we or even be allowed to remain anonymous as he would prefer. In this place it must be divulged that Scoop ' s journalistic abilities were developed in the Grossherzogliche Oberrealschule in Worms am Rhein. Germany, like all old and cultured nations, has produced its radical and insane men of genius. Scoop ' s early arrival in this country left in him the genius yet to be absorbed. If notoriety is genius, he has succeeded. In all event he is happy, wears slippers, and no man ' s collar. One Hundred Seven t Hen Henry Spangler Rich, Jr., AXP Alpha Chi Rho House Marietta, Penna. Prepared at Williamsport Dickinson Seminary Atwater Club (3, 4); Honor Roll (4): Major Subject: History. Entering college with the class of twenty, Hen left before graduation and returned this year to get his degree. He came back in a Packard roadster, ample evidence of several successful years spent in business. During his absence, as he will tell you, he learned much of practi- cality, and, we understand, is now Alpha Chi Rho ' s exponent of all that is sound, conservative and good business. This year Hen has confined his activity to the library, but he had previously massed such 011a Pod points as would fill a volume. These unfortunately cannot be listed, and Henry passes on, his glories unsung. He again struck some hard luck shortly after mid-years, and it is doubtful whether he will be able to complete with 1927. Phil Philip Woodford Roberts Ivy Hall Shelton, Conn.

It does not seem three years ago that the Wesleyan campus was startled by an ancient brick-red Buick roadster driven by a demon in a likewise brick-red lum- ber jacket. But three years have passed, and styles have changed for the better. Phipp ' s ambition to remodel Wesleyan lasted longer than his Buick, but the insti- tution stood firm ; there was not a flut- ter of its pulse to denote a Swarthmor- ian relapse. Not even would we grant Phipp a renewal of his delight in co- education, but left him to multitudinous and infinitesimal doses of heart ease ad- ministered within a short slide of the cam- pus. Years hence you may say reverently, Oh, Phipp, a physician rivaled only by Doc Fauver.

Cy has had the distinction of being the tallest man in college for the past four years. It is feared that he wil ' leave these halls of knowledge with two things unlearned. One is that you cannot grow hair on a billiard ball, and the other is that Maine is not the best state in the Union. Cy has striven hard for the past few years in a valiant attempt to keep his hair ; don ' t let him fool you — he is a bald- headed man. As the old saying goes, God made him, let him pass as a man .- He has yearly raised the D. U. hopes in the Interfraternity track meet by walking over the lower heights of the high jump, but for reasons unknown Cy is not there when the height of the cross bar makes jumping necessary.

In his sophomore year Hank transfer- red here from New York University where he acquired a keen sense of prop- erty and the ability for financial manipulation which he has exercised ever since. Since he hates subways and ta.xis he always manages to have a girl with an automobile. In his leisure moments he works at dramatics and is now about to play the leading role in Mid- dletown ' s own moving picture. As the local press has it, Mr. Schwensen is five feet nine inches tall, weight one hun- dred and fifty-eight pounds, is a blonde and has blue eyes.

The old philosopher is still among us. Delt came from Burnside, one of the sirbubs ■ ' of Hartford. He was so or- thodox that he took Bill Chanter ' s course in I Ethics and believed everything. But later he made the Glee Club trips without a single conscientious objection to what went on. Perhaps this was be- cause he majored in Philosophy. Rumor says he acted as press agent for the department and that he sought to make it famous by wanting to take a comprehen- sive examination in the subject. Delt ' s ambition is to prove all Plato ' s ideas practical. It looks as if his life work will be trying to convince people of this. Roy Leroy Edward Severance, 2N Sigma Nu House Willsboro, N. Y.

Roy came to Wesleyan with a nice pair of puffed up rosy cheeks. It was first thought that they were due to the envi- ronment of the . dirondacks from whence he hails, but it was later found out that he was a life guard at a prominent sum- mer resort. Roy first made himself famous at Wesleyan by establishing a college record in his freshman year, blow- ing 1,137,632.7 cubic yards of air into a saxophone. Since then he has turned his natural advantage into other chan- nels.

For three or four years Fred has acted as church organist. He concludes his service amid the clamor of the college body for voluntary chapel. Is there any connection, we wonder. Fred has done several notable things since he has been here. When he first came he entertained us with his laff — now we all believe that four years in college is enough for any man. Isn ' t it strange, too, that a Phi Beta Kappa key should affect a man as it does Fred.

Dogs worry something, and Bob worries about some- thing. At Wesleyan Bob has made him- self famous by remaining on probation all of the time except three half semes- ters. He is exceptional in being one of Wesleyan ' s little funny men (Wasp Board 2, 3, 4 of 4). Flint Auto School seems to be the attraction — evidently he is sincere, for someone says he is not acquainted out in the great open spaces. g ' y - .s,- ;, . --r=f !H ; One Hundred Eleven — ' iV ro- ; !is ir ■ -yi i- Ken Kenneth Eaton Steele, B0n Beta Theta Pi House Hartford, Conn. Prepared at Hartford High School Skull and Serpent; Senate (3, 4); Secre- tarv (3)- Class President (3); Varsity Fnotball ' Team (2, 3, 4); Captain (4) Varsity Track Team (2. 3, 4); Class Football (1); Class Basketball (2. 3); Cheer Leader (3. 4); Glee Club (1. 2. 3); Jibers (2. 3): Chairman Customs Com- mittee (4); Personnel Committee (3, 4); Junior Prom Committee (3); Chapel Choir (3, 4) ; Major Subject: Economics. The accompanying picture will suprise many who have been unaware that such a person has existed among us. For Mr. Steele has remained in quiet seclusion since his arrival at Wesleyan. Contro- versies on college problems have never attracted his interest ; he despises singing, meetings, and athletics. I came to Wes- leyan, he told an interviewer, to study, not to be a ' college boy ' . He laughed cynically. Government has been my long suit, and I ' ve had two fittings.

Prepared at Trenton High School Senate (4); Class Vice-President (2); Varsity Track Squad (1. 2) : Class Swim- ming (1); Captain Class ' Basketball (3, 4); Y.M.C.A. Cabinet (4): Chairman Personnel Committee (4); Class Banquet Committee (2); Intramural Athletic Council (3); Junior Prom Committee (3); Major Subject: History. Don has a penchant for raising mustaches. Note the luxuriant growth on his upper chin in the picture. That is a fair representative of the sort he has been coaxing all year. He is also re- nowned for his bright eyes , which have long been the envy of men and the delight of girls. At the present writing Don has been in love once, but no one, not even himself, knows when that was. His disconcerting, enigmatic smile has scared more men away from the D. U. house than the w hole Sophomore delega- tion 1 One Hundred Tivelve y ' - ..- m ,. - ,. Reverand George Frederick Storev, r Gamma Psi House New York, N. Y. Prepared at New York Preparatory School Senate (4); Honor Roll (1); Major Sub- ject: English. This young divine, in addition to con- ducting services at his church in Rocky Hill, also finds time to take part in de- votional services down in Pennsylvania. The Reverend is a hard gentleman to find at times unless one is acquainted with his habits. We have been told that some- times he may be found in the basement of Fisk Hall waving a Boy Scout flag at Pete Curts, but that most of the time he may be found in the kitchen of the Gamm Psi house. Perhaps this explains something about his physical proportions. Gazing at him we wonder whether he will be able to see his shoes when he re- turns ten years from now. Dutch Paul Brown Stover, AXP Alpha Chi Rho House Royersford, Penna. Prepared at Perkiomen School Classieal Club (2); La Soeiete Francaise (2); Major Subject: English. The most striking thing about Paul is his astounding versatility. He decides on a profession — he masters it. He covets another, spurns the former, and lo ! the new one is his. He came here wed to business, divorced her for art and became a litterateur overnight. Tiring of art he embraced the bally-hoo business, but he returned penitent and we find him now an authority on things literary. Dutch is not unusually reticent and will, with some provocation, volunteer choice tid- bits of sagacity for your consumption. The number of pearls he drops before us is numberless. Dutch is a very handy man to have around. His favorite quo- tation is : That ' s the kind of thing you like if you like that kind of thing . : , =?

Stoibey ' ' was born and raised in Joisey City. He still shows its effects. The only redemption for this fact is that he regrets it, and even was influenced to take a course in Enunciation and Articu- lation at the Sherman-Cody C. S. Soon after his arrival he became very well known around town and he will leave many close friends and short acquaint- ances on his departure. During the sum- mer months, he has practiced by work- ing as a sailor on a launch on the Sound. Under his noise and ois Stoibey has a personality and a warm heart that have an irresistible appeal. Lorry Lorain Brierly Sully, BOH Beta Theta Pi House New Haven, Conn. Prepared at New Haven High School Major Subject: Philosophy. It is probably realized by one who is acquainted with the troubles of a fra- ternity steward that it is not such a happy task. It has fallen to the lot of Lorry to hold the culinary department of his eating club under his hand this year, and probably the duties thus incurred make the lad look so frail. When the boys begin to complain, however, he remem- bers when he wielded the switch of a country school master previous to enter- ing Wesleyan, and his experiences there make it possible to use a few methods to bring some of his children into submis- sion. Sully has followed Dr. Fauver ' s orders for growing hair on the chest and soon hopes to be a man. k ' C ' ' One Hundred Fourteen iM ' - V •.-i O Rib Robert Edwards Thornhill, Y Psi Upsilon House Sayville, N. Y. Prepared at Sayville School Class Secretary (4); Varsity Track Squad (1, 4); Varsity Golf Team (2); Major Subject: Psychology. The shades of John Wesley were eagerly raised when Long Island ' s oyster- land emitted this, its choicest pearl. Al- though he originally so chose his Alma Pater, Smith, Vassar and Connecticut College have since been contending for the Alma Mater ' s role — and Rib ' s. However, he is still undecided which to elect — that they are all just neck and neck , you know — although Smith has made some Gaines recently. Rib came to us an athlete — hockey and lacrosse — and is now secre- tary of the class. He is enviably happy- go-lucky; even chapel holds for him no horrors, and classes merely provide fer- tile fields for his humor. He is exotic, handsome — possessed with that delightful personality which renders him deli- ciously dazzling (Vassar Prism) charm- ing as he seduces. ill Ray Raymond Welch Tunnell, AA Alpha Delta Phi House Philadelphia, Pa. Prepared at New York Military Academy Varsity Soccer Squad (1, 2, 3); Varsity Swimming Squad (1, 2, 3, 4) ; Class Soc- cer (1, 2, 3) ; Class Swimming (1, 2, 3, 4) ; Class Baseball (2); Pre-Medical Club (3, 4) ; Major Subject: Biology. Ray fs the only Tunnell who has not yet earned the soubriquet of Two-gun ; but he loves the great open spaces, and he deserves to be called One-and-a-half gun at least. He is of the ranger type, tall and handsome, quick-tempered, but awfully good hearted when you get to know him. Ray recently shattered his own record for the distances between Middletown and Northampton, lowering his time from 30 min. 2 3 5 sec. to 29 min. 58 4 5 sec. Ray intends to take up Sueology after he leaves college, in fact, if the number of furnish your house and baby-carriage advertisements serve as a criterion, we should say that Ray has done this already. One Hundred Fifteen ■.,1 ' r ' , i ' $i:=:= ' Van James Martin Van Buren, ATA Delta Tau Delta House Hobart, N. Y. Prepared at Hobart High School Senate (4); Class Vice-President (1); Varsity Football Team (4) ; Class Foot- ball (1); Auditing Conunittec (4); Junior Prom Committee (3); Class Banquet Committee (1); Major Snbject: Eco- nomics. Down from the Catskills, from the peaceful village of Hobart, came Jim to dabble a bit in colleges and to acquire a little dope on how to manage the coffers of finance. He plunged into the colle- giate atmosphere like a Londoner plung- ing into a fog. But now Jim is many strides beyond his starting point and al- though a bit of the fog may still cling about him, more tangible things will stick with him. Such as — a way with the women, a football letter, the brand of good egg , the undying devotion ( ?) of those who existed under his reign as steward and President of Wesleyan ' s most remote fraternity house. Nick Nicholas Emory Wagman, 2N Sigma Nu House Saratoga Springs, N. Y. Prepared at Saratoga Springs High School P ' . D.-lta Efsilon : Varsity Tennis Squad (3) : Varsity Sivimuiing Squad (4); Class Soccer (3); Class Tennis (3); Argus Board (2, 3. 4); Managing Editor (4); Glee Club (1, 2. 3); Chapel Choir (2, 3, 4); Major Subject: Astronomy. Little Nicky, like all children, likes to travel. For the last two summers he has traveled so extensively during vacations that he is no longer satisfied with Middle- town. He has to travel to Hartford every Sunday afternoon in quest, not of women, but of music. In fact he likes to travel so well that he comes down from the Ob- servatory to the Sigma Nu house every morning to get his breakfast. For vVag- man, we can only say : Music, Travel, and (most important) STARS as you can see, Nick had his portrait taken at one of these movie star studios, where they use so much embellishment and scenery that the final product is really pleasing. f One Hundred Sixteen _ f ? -y Dave David Conger Walden, r Gamma Psi House Mount Carmel, Conn. Prepared at New Haven High School Varsity Track Squad (2, 3); Class Football (1): Atwoiter Club (4); Major Subject: Chemistry. Dave came to college from New Haven. His folks moved since but Dave still finds excuses to go to New Haven every once in a while. Nevertheless Davie is in Middletown enough to become a well- known character around the chemistry laboratory. Too bad the facuhy is per- mitting him to leave before he has had the opportunity to blow up the Hall Me- morial. When Dante went to Hell he rated himself sixth among the poets. We have often been tempted to ask Dave where he would rate himself among chemists. Self-confidence and untiring effort should make a great chemist out of Dave some day. Carrie Carroll Robbins Wetzel, AKE Delta Kappa Epsilon House Trenton, N. J. Prepared at Phillips Andover Academy Skull and Serpent; Class Vice-Presi- dent (3); Varsity Track Squad (3, 4); Assistant Manager Football (3) ; Man- ager (4); Chairman Class Banquet Com- mittee (2) ; Athletic Council (4) : Class Day Committee (4); Honor Roll (1); Mawr Subject: Economics. Carroll Wetzel ' s chief claim to fame is that he was manager of football, and if anyone thinks this is not a meritorious claim, he is advised to see Dr. Fauver. Lammy ' s ability is not confined to managing, however ; at least, reports would have it so. Many are the tales bruited about the provinces of his wild escapades after drinking day-old cider (thus staying within the boundaries of college law) mi.xed with ginger ale. Mr. Wetzel vehemently denies such reports, but the merry twinkle to be detected in his eyes belie his words. Wetzel has been building a new Deke house for four years. V ;- One Hundred Seventeen . -- Johnny John Joseph Williams Ivy Hall Seymour, Conn. Prepared at Seymour High School Handbook Board (3, 4); Manager (4); Y.M.C.A. Cabinet (1, 4); Atwater Club (4); Rosa Club (3. 4); Vice-President (4); Chapel Choir (4): Honor Roll (3, 4) ; Major Subject: Physics. Johnny is a pleasing conversationalist, letting the other fellow do the talking. For chronic joke tellers he is an excellent man to have along, being vociferously ap- preciative. Johnny is no reformer. Talks good comprises the first and last word of comment on any scheme for uplift. That may be because he has a very humble opinion of himself, although he does take it upon himself to check his professors up on their mathematics. Johnny strikes one as being prosey . He gives promise of living a long, useful, respected life, and will undoubtedly enjoy a mighty fine funeral. It is rumored through Evsky ' s of- fice that the handbook went in the hole financially for the first time in years. Perhaps Seymour is too temptingly close to Middletown. M- Bob Robert Arthur Wilson, N0 Phi Nu Theta House Valley Stream, N. Y. Prepared at Rockville Center High School Pi Delta Epsilon; Varsity Cross Country Squad (2) ; Varsity Swimfning Squad (2, 3); Class Soccer (3); Argus Board (2, 3. 4); Business Manager (4); Publico tions Board (4); Major Subject: Philos- ophy. A character who will long be remem- bered by his friends and by the Faculty. In fact a Wilsonian tradition has arisen within the administrative offices. Sopho- more year Bobby had scuttitis , but the Dean and Pete Curts helped him recover from that. He has been wagging his head all over the campus ever since. Since he became Business Manager of the Argus, that paper has seen more ads and less news than ever before. But in any of his roles, either as business man, physical culture expert, a Don Juan, Life Saver, or a college man , Bob will al- ways be remembered for his thoughtful- ness for others. Lately Doc Fauver has gotten him to shave his chest, but no results have been reported as yet. One Hundred Eighteen Ct Woody Leland Milton Woodford, Y Psi Upsilon House Bristol, Conn. Prepared at Suffield Senate (4); Argus Board (2, 3, 4); Circu- lation Manager (4) ; Honor System Com- mittee (4); Dormitory Committee (4); La Societe Francaise (3. 4); Honor Roll (3, 4) ; Major Subject: French. Red is one of those gum-shoe artists who has made the interrogation When shall we three meet again ? , a problem which keeps every son of John Wesley continually on the straight and narrow. (Advertisement.) Besides being guardian of Sherlock Hartzell ' s needle, this Dr. Watson, probe of conscience, — has found time to devote himself to the arduous study of French Literature — la Vie Parisienne and Candide being his favorites. As circulation manager, for- merly, and now as business manager of the Argus, Woody has made each Monday and Thursday a Red letter day in our lives, at the same time cutting his classes unlimitedly and presiding over the Lambda Lambda. Geegee Gordon Gibbons Yarrow, C.C. Commons Club House West Palm Beach, Fla. Prepared at Mt. Hermon School Varsity Track Squad (2, 3) ; Major Sub- ject: English. Mr. Yarrow is the acknowledged hand- ball champion of the college, because of which he is often called King of the Shack . He is easily recognized from a distance by his Bob LaFollette hair and lumberman ' s saunter. George ' s greatest claim to fame, however, is due to the fact that he is one of the three men in college who wear red flannels through- out the year. Before coming to college he was noted for his proficiency as a piccolo player, and has since aroused much interest and discussion of that in- strument owing to his ability with piccolo solos. Yarrow spends his summer as an iceman about Middletown. This probably explains his handball propensities. For a long while Geegee refused to release his picture and points to the Edi- tor, and due to the latter ' s methods, per- haps even now, Gordon will be surprised to find himself present. V T One Hundred Nineteen s F Fiji George Tuckley Yarrow, AXP Alpha Chi Rho House Rowayton, Conn. Prepared at Mount Hermon Varsity Swimming Squad (1); Team (2. 3, 4); Class Football (1) : Class Swim- ming (1); Glee Club (1, 2); Rosa Club (2, 4) ; Major Subject: Physics. Having been reared in the Faulkland Islands, Russia, Hawaii, Turkey, and sev- eral unpronounceable places, Fiji came to Wesleyan rather strange to America. Commercial activity being very novel to him, he was very much intrigued by eco- nomics and took the first course under every professor in the department, com- pleting the research only a short time ago. Fiji sometimes sees a joke. His chief claim for distinction is his propen- sity for telling the jokes he does not see to people who really should not hear them. When he leads songs, his favorite is a mixed Amici. il Doc Everett Wiard Young, AA4 Alpha Delta Phi House Pittsburgh, Pa. Prepared at Oxford High School, Ohio Varsity Football Squad (2, 3); Team (4); Honor Roll (1, 2, 3); Major Sub- ject: Philosophy. Doc is our scrappy little end on the big boys ' football team. Four years ago Doc started to grow a moustache, but day be- fore yesterday he gave up in disgust. The girls still think he is a freshman. Doc is a great admirer of Earl Lieder- mann, and you can hear his chest-weights squeaking every afternoon between five and five-thirty. Next year, when he is seventeen, Doc will challenge Lionel Strongfort to a gymnastic contest. If Doc wins, he is going to get Lionel ' s book on Cave-man Love ; if Lionel wins, he is going to get Doc ' s new butter-and-egg- man suit.

' 55C?. -■ y- — — - Jfootball The past season ' s schedule included a larger number of games than was played the previous season. The reappearance of Rochester and Middlebury more than filled the vacancy left by the disappearance of St. Stephens, and with the beginning of practice. Coach Hill, confronted with a more formidable schedule, faced the tough job of building a team with three or four letter men and com- paratively inexperienced sophomore and junior material. So the bald statement of the record — three victories and five defeats — does not do entire justice to the season. The most important victory, that which heads the list, was scored in Hartford over Trinity. This success more than made up for some of the other failures, for the loss of the 1925 game had not yet left the minds of the student body. The other two triumphs over the new additions to the schedule together R ' ith the hard fought defeats made the past season a bit above the average. On the twenty-fifth of September the opening game was played on Andrus Field when a team composed largely of new material defeated the fighting Mid- dlebury Panther 7-0. The scoring in the first period by Tetley for the touchdown and Lee for the point was closely followed in the second quarter by another attack on the Blue and White goal line which was finally stopped by a penalty forcing an almost impossible drop-kick. The second half wa, characterized by some excellent defense play on the home team ' s part thus effectually shutting the Mid- dlebury aggregation from any chance of scoring. October fourth saw Wesleyan suffering its first defeat of the season by losing to Con- necticut Agricultural College 13-0. The Car- dinal and Black was up against a much heavier team but despite the handicap put up , , a hard fought game. In the second period the -■ bi k ' ' Aggies took to the air within their own ter- B , J ritory and managed to get a long high pass J K k ' ' )JKKu ' ' the heads of our defense accounting for ' ■ B r l seven points, the other six being gained by a ' SSBSti B i ' j l touchdown in the last quarter. Wesleyan E V Vfl l threatened the Aggies ' goal line in the third ' M ]:)eriod but was held for downs. The next Saturday saw Wesleyan on its first absence from the home field when for the sixth consecutive time it bowed before the superior weight and ability of the Columbia „ « Lion on Baker Field. The Cardinal and ■ ■ 1 Black ' s part of the game was characterized by j| B 1 some scrappy fighting and a brilliant aerial i« oKm m attack in the final quarter. The Wesleyan line held under heavy attacks only to finally break before the continued assaults of a superior foe. The game ended without Columbia ' s goal „ T- c line crossed and Wesleyan at the little end Kenneth E. Steele , , Captain of a 41-0 score. One Hundred Eighty-five Q - ' On the eighteenth of October the Wesleyan gird warriors took another excur- sion afield and succeeded in securing an overwhelming victory over the University of Rochester at Rochester. The game gave a good exhibition of the Cardinal and Black ' s scoring ability, the final accounting being 27-6 with the Middle- towners far in the lead. Two touchdowns were put ov er in the second quarter on passes to Lee and Steele respectively. In the third period, by the :Use of a fake crossbuck, Bittenbender managed to put a third touchdown across, and after several successful screened passes Osborne took the ball through the line for the final score as the game ended. Rochester got its lone score in the opening minutes when the suddenness of its attack took Wesleyan off its feet momentarily. A Wesleyan fall dance crowd saw the team put up a stiff fight against Amherst the following Saturday, being defeated by the final score of 20-0. The playing started when Wesleyan made an attack on Amherst ' s goal line which was stopped when Lee ' s drop ick hit the cross-bar and failed to score. The Purple and White made its points in the first, second and fourth periods after irresistible marches straight down the field marked by powerful line smashes. By what was at times brilliant defense work the home team st opped several attacks and kept the score down to the margin of twenty which really does not show how close was the result of the first Little Three contest. A week later the Cardinal and Black held a poorer Trinity team in complete subsurvience throughout the entire game at the Trinity Field in Hartford. The remembrance of the ])revious year ' s defeat was not wiped out until the Rooster had been covered with twenty-one points. The game was marked by loose playing on both sides though the ability of the Wesleyan team to run rough-shod over its opponents was always in evidence. The Cardinal and Black excelled in all phases of the game and succeeded in stopping the Trinity offense so well that at no time was their thirty yard line touched. Accurate forward passing brought the three touchdowns home to Middletown. Passes to Steele and Osborne accounted for scores in the first and last periods and another pass to Steele paved the way for the final touchdown by Adams in the last quarter. On November eighth Wesleyan lost any hope of a place in the Little Three series by losing to Williams at Williamstown. A final rally in the last eight minutes accounting for fourteen points came too late to overcome the Purple ' s lead, the game ending in their favor 23-14. The major part of the game, played on a poor field, was en- tirely of Purple hue, the Williams ' backs tearing through the Cardinal and Black line for gain after gain. M1- liams score was accounted for by touch- downs in the first and second quarters and a field goal and touchdown in the last period. Wesleyan gained its points Coach Hill by some fast work at the very end of One Hundred Eighty-six « the game, making the last quarter full of action for both sides. The Wesleyan scoring started with a deflected pass from Tetley to Lee who raced down the field for a touchdown. After a short kick-off with Wesleyan gaining the ball, a long pass to Adams paved the way for the final score by Johnson who skirted the end on a fake cross-buck. The final game of the season was played the following Saturday before a large group of alumni and guests back for the All- ' esleyan week-end. when the Cardinal and Black Ixjwed before Bowdoin 20-7. The experienced team from the North was met by a home team that put up the best fight of its season. The Bears were at their best in a broken field and on the defense. Wesleyan found itself unable to gain through the line and so took to the air, gaining two hundred and forty-nine yards by this route though only accounting for one touchdown. A total of fifty-two passes throughout the game provided more than the usual number of thrills. The hite made its scores in the last three periods while Wesleyan put its touchdown over in the last quarter by a nice pass from Tetley to Bittenbender who scampered thirty yards for the score. The defense of both teams was good but superior running by the team from Maine determined the game. The result of the past season gives one to think that the future of football here at Wesleyan is brighter. With the loss of only two seniors the experience gained this past fall has plenty of time in which to be applied and Wesleyan is looking forward with great expectation to the work of Coach Wood and the 1927 team. What may be beyond is hard to conjecture but from all indications the outlook is far from gloomy. One Hundred Eighty-seven • c?= Jfoottiall OFFICERS 1926 Season Carroll R. Wetzel, ' 27 Curtis H.

Our opponents in these opening games were of first rate ability, but the later records proved that our full strength was not represented in these early scores. In the opening game with Harvard at Cambridge, W ' esleyan was hampered by frequent penalties, and Harvard ' s first score came through a free kick. The team played a hard, steady game but lacked the final punch that became so char- acteristic in the latter part of the season. Though the ball was in the Harvard territory more than one-third of the time, the score was decisive. Our jinx stayed with us through the next game which was played in Middle- town with Springfield. In the first half of the game the teams were evenly matched. Astarita scored on a pass from Hartzell, and when the period ended, the Y College was leading by a narrow margin. Springfield came back in the second half with a rush. King was so discouraged with our prospects that he shifted to the winning side for a change and booted the ball over the Wesleyan line. This lead put even more spirit into the visitors and they ran up four more points in a row. The second game had like the first an unfortunate conclusion. The first game of the Little Three championship series, played with Amherst on our own field, ended in an 8-5 victory. The last quarter was by far the most exciting ; between the two teams seven points were scored. Just before the close of the game Phillips sent the ball over for his fifth individual goal. Astarita made a final ]:)oint, and a score of 8-5 ended a successful day. Phillips, Hartzell, and Tedcastle made particularly fine exhibitions. Although noticeably handicapped by weight and a strange field, the Wesleyan aggregation fought one of the best battles of the season at New Haven. In the first quarter the ball was rushed toward the Yale line and not relinquished until a goal was scored. In the second half, the superior weight of the Yale team became more in evidence. Perhaps the Yale team had been reminded, between the halves, of their last football game with the Army. At any rate Yale was first to score. But Wesleyan soon regained its stride and rushed the ball out of its territory. After an excellent center from Fortin to Phillips, Wesleyan regained its lead, but only for a few minutes ; some short, fast passing followed and Yale tied the score. P oth teams tried vainly to upset the balance which continued until darkness. The final victory was over Williams at Wil- liamstown. The game was rather slowed up be- cause of a slippery field caused by melting frost. The fast work of Johnson and the clock-like teamwork of the whole machine, however, led the W ' esleyan men to the decisive victory which had been ])redicted. The line played its average game, but the backfield particularly distinguished it.self. P)efore the game was five minutes old ' esleyan had scored its first goal on a center. As usual a fast and exciting third quarter was the high point of the game. Manuel opened up for Wesleyan rnd scored, followed soon by Fortin. Williams also managed to get one goal to their credit. A few minut es later the whistle blew and Wesleyan had retained the Little Three soccer champion- Georce B.

CrtPT-tlZCT fOtiTUNj ..ri « ' ■ c J-. c - Crosisi Country THE 1926 SEASON The end of the nineteen twenty-six season again found Wesleyan possessed of the Little Three Championship. Although the team was defeated twice, by the Massachusetts Aggies and the Springfield College teams, its record in the New England Intercollegiate Cross Country Meet was bettered by seventy-six points over the previous year and its ranking was improved by two places. The ' esleyan victory in the triangular meet with Amherst and Williams was decisive, and indicated no mean ability on the part of Coach Martin ' s squad. This was evidenced rather strikingly during the season in the noticeably well-bunched run- ning of the Cardinal and Black representatives. Four veterans returned at the opening of college for the first practice. Large turn-outs marked the work preceding the opening meet, and the good competition made the struggle for places keen. On October sixteenth the only home meet of the season took place and resulted in a Wesleyan win over Tufts by a two point margin. The score was twenty-seven to twenty-nine. Lester and Johnson of Tufts crossed the line together for first in the fastest time yet made on the home course, twenty-five minutes and three seconds. Meade, Captain Newton, Parkinson and Harrison took the next four places without difficulty. The following Saturday witnessed a defeat of the Wesleyan road-men by the Massachusetts Agricultural College aggregation, thirty-three to twenty-four. The Aggies were at the peak of their season and experienced little difficulty in winning. Preston of M. A. C. took the lead at the start but failed to breast the tape ahead of Captain Newton, who led him in. Parkinson and Meade took fourth and seventh respectively. The second meet away from Middletown proved to be the most closely con- tested one of them all, resulting in a twenty-seven to twenty-eight win for Spring- field College. A misjudgment of the course length somewhat influenced the Wes- leyan showing. Green of the winners, hard pushed by Newton, won in twenty- five minutes and thirty-eight seconds. Meade and Parkinson took the next two places followed by four Springfield harriers who tied for fifth. The Amherst-Wesleyan-Williams triangular meet was held at Amherst the following week. Ca])tain Newton led his Little Three Champions to the finish in twenty-eight minutes and fifty-four seconds, a hundred yards ahead of Adams of Williams, his nearest com- petitor. The characteristically well-bunched per- formance of Coach Martin ' s runners was again evident when Wesleyan men took five of the next six placesr-winning the meet with the good score of twenty-one points. Williams scored second with forty-one and Amherst brought up the rear with sixty-six. The New England Intercollegiate Cross Coun- try Meet was held at Boston. The Wesleyan team improved over the previous year and took fifth, defeating incidentally the formerly superior representatives of M. A. C. Parkinson and !,-„.,„ D N- .,„,.

' i?S -- )g:zn- j gmn X - i ?BasiebaU A summary of the 1926 season reflects a fair to middling season for the Wesleyan nine, having chalked up eight victories, and sustained ten defeats. Two games were cancelled on account of rain. These figures do not indicate that a mediocre aggregation represented the college this season, but rather that at times the team could not find itself, suffering a series of defeats in a row, and then emerging with creditable victories. Considering the formidable aggregations on the schedule, the Cardinal and Black nine made a good showing. The season was opened by a trouncing at the hands of the Yale nine, who tallied twelve runs as against Wesleyan ' s two. Smith and Shoop, veteran Eli twirlers failed to live up to their alleged reputations, while Kennedy and Nichols were hampered by the usual early season tossing. Disregarding the score, the contest gave Coach Dougherty an opportunity to detect the weaknesses in the line-up and readjust his men. In the first home game of the season, the Cardinal and Black team defeated the Lowell Tech aggregation in a closely contested game, the final score being 16-15. Coach Dougherty pitted the same team against the invaders that faced the Yale batteries a week previous. The outfit then invaded the Harvard camp, emerging at the short end of the score 7-6. In the next home game, the team ran true to form and defeated Middlebury to a 10-3 victory. Bats were next crossed with the New York University players, but the Violet team managed to score eight runs as against Wesleyan ' s lone tally, even though the Cardinal and Black batters outhit the Gothamites. Speed Kennedy held forth on the mound with a baffling display of as- sorted deliveries, but weakened in the sixth, causing two runs as a result of bases on balls. Swarthmore displayed their superiority in the next scheduled game on the home diamond. Bartlet, twirling for the invaders, pitched mas- terful ball, allowing the Cardinal and Black batsmen two tallies. It began to rain in the fourth inning and continued steadily, forcing the umpire to call the game after Swarthmore had scored five runs in the first half of the eighth inning. Following these two defeats, the Wesleyan team struggled out of the slump and romped to a 10-3 victory over Massachusetts Aggies. Silloway starred for the team by driving a home run in deep center, sending Wielland in ahead of him. In the eighth inning, the Wes- leyan batters broke loose and collected six hits ; three singles, two doubles, and a homer, netting five runs for the inning. With the blood of victory still fresh, Wesleyan sewed Williams up in a 16-1 defeat and had little difficulty taking this one-sided game from the L 1 y ■■ tiJ i I i« iTTi [11 Warren F.

Rupprecht and Silloway were the big guns of the at- ta ck, the former driving out a homer, two triples, and a single in five times at bat, while the latter had a perfect day with four safe hits out of as many times up. Dietter and Guthrie also had good days with three hits apiece. While this onslaught was taking place Kennedy was pitching a splendid game, holding the visitors to nine hits, and striking out seven. With men on bases he pitched airtight ball, a total of eleven illiams men being left stranded. In addition to his heavy hitting Rupprecht played a stellar game at the initial sack, picking up several difficult plays out of the dirt. Smith played his first game of the year at second base, and in addition to get- ting two pretty hits he played his posi- tion perfectly, stopping two line drives that were labelled hits. Donald R. Funk The team seemed to have found it- Captain 19S7 gelf, and followed with a win over the traditional rival, Trinity, to the decisive score of 8-2. Thomas, pitching for the Wesleyan nine, baffled the Trinity sluggers, and this, coupled with loose playing in the Trinity infield, and timely hitting by the Cardinal and Black men, resulted in the victory for our nine. Wesleyan scored its fourth straight when the Sabrina nine was vanquished 5-2. Travis represented the Cardinal and Black men on the mound, performing in creditable style, allowing only six hits, and retiring an equal number. ' oodruf, Amherst captain and star southpaw, handled the delivery end of the Sabrinas, twirling commendable ball. The contest finally settled down to a pitching duel with Travis finally displaying the superiority in mound generalship. Dartmouth stopped Wesleyan ' s string of wins by handing the team a 9-3 defeat. Wesleyan set out strongly by chalking up three runs early in the game but the team suddenly weakened and allowed the Dartmouth sluggers to hammer in nine runs for victory. With the Massachusetts Aggie invasion of Middletown on May 19th, the home team delighted the fans with a free-hitting contest in which the local nine registered a 10-7 win. Three defeats followed in order, Tufts taking our measure 5-0, Rhode Island State 12-0, and Colgate chalking up five runs against our three. Trinity was spared another defeat on May 31st by the blessing of rain, and the lay-off found the team unable to stand up against the Springfield nine. Travis and Nichols both held the mound against the Y. M. C. A. team but could not check the slugging, eighteen hits having been taken from their deliveries. Two Hundred Tivo --■ Rain prevented the second game with Williams which was to be played at Williamstown. On June 18th, the team thrilled a large audience of alumni back for Commencement by pounding their way through the Amherst batteries to an 11-6 victory. Five runs were hammered out in the fifth inning, and four more in the following time at bat. Wesleyan, by taking this victory, secured the Little Three championship. In an Alumni-Varsity game, the grads handed the champions a defeat of 5-3. Nichols allowed the alumni three runs in the first inning, and then settled down to water-tight ball for the rest of the game, up to the seventh when two more runs were sent in. Porter was the mainstay for the alumni, and allowed two runs in the second inning, and one in the sixth. Porter found himself in a tight place in the last frame with bases loaded and two out. Silloway however, whiffed, and ended the game. In the line-up are mirrored a large number of men who have one or more years still to play. Surely wi th this experience, Wesleyan may look forward to a stronger nine on the diamond in the 1927 season.

In addition to four varsity men from the previous season, a number of freshmen showed marked abiUty. The first contest, with Connecticut Aggies, proved to be an easy victory for Wesleyan; not once during the meet did the visitors seriously threaten to work up a high score. Fifteen first places and ten second places were captured by Wesleyan men. In the 100 yard dash. Phillips, Bancker, and Johnson took the first three places. The 220 yard dash proved to be a more exciting event, Atwood of C. A. C. took a second place and the other two positions were captured by Phillips and Norris. White, who along with Phillips was the high scorer of the contest, took first place in the 120 yard hurdles and the other two positions were again taken by Wesleyan. The 440 yard run was won by Steele of Wesleyan, while the visitors captured the other places. Mulligan was the outstanding athlete of the entire contest, winning the 2 mile run in 8 minutes 34 6 10 seconds. Wes- leyan easily took the first two places in the hammer, discus, and javelin throws. In the sixteen pound hammer throw the visitors again ofTered some opposition and Longo and Williams of Connecticut Aggies took the first and third places. Again in the pole vault and high jump the visitors tied for ' second places. The rest of the meet was too one-sided to be very interesting. Wesleyan, took the first, second and often third places in the events, ending the day with a final score of 99-36. Three Wesleyan freshmen, C. C. Johnson, Hildreth, and J. Williams did well by taking first places in the discus, pole vault, and high jump. Phillips and White took ten points apiece and Steele six. In the first meet of the Little Three series Williams, presenting a well-trained, strong team, defeated Wesleyan by the com- fortable margin of 83-52. The Williams team gathered in nine first places to Wesleyan ' s six. Phillips and White again showed outstanding ability, each man taking two first places. Phil- lips took first in the 100 and 220 yard dashes, and White in the 120 and 220 yard hurdles. Rowley starred for Williams by winning the javelin by a throw of 160 feet, 3 inches, breaking the WiUiams record by 15 feet. In addition to this, Rowley won the discus throw, barely beating out Nivling of Wesleyan. The most exciting event of the afternoon was the half mile run. Starr of Williams cleverly kept Crowell in a pocket throughout almost the entire race. The men were close together and in the last few seconds Crowell got free in 3f . m James J. Bancker Captain l ' J 6 Two Hundred Seven time to win first place by inches. The superi- ority of Williams in the field events foretold the results of the meet early in the afternoon. The next meet which was in Middletown, took place before a large crowd of guests at the spring house parties. The Swarthmore team gained a slight lead in the first part of the contest and held it until the last event when Nivling and Boardman decided the meet by winning first and second places in the javelin throw. The final score was 70 3 2 to 543 in favor of Wesleyan. White was the only Wesleyan man to win two first places ; he repeated his usual practice by winning both of the hurdle races. Wesleyan ended its track season on its lucky day. The Wesleyan teams entertained the Amherst prom guests by defeating the Sabrinas in track, baseball and tennis. The score of the track meet was close and was decided by the second place in the broad jump. Captain P)ancker was standing third in the jump and chere remained one try to make his record good. With his usual long take-off, he tore down the field and jumped for a mark of 21 feet, Syi inches, improving his previous mark by a foot and a half. Things looked bright for a minute and then Mahler of Amherst raised his record to 21 feet, 6 inches. There were a few moments of tension when it was found that it was now up to one man, Shauf- fer of Amherst, to decide who should take second place in the Little Three series. Shaufifer made a beautiful jump which appeared to pass Bancker ' s mark but on measurement it only equaled 21 feet, 2} ; inches, and a meet was won and lost by one inch. Wesleyan showed its usual strength in the dash and hurdle events. Phillips and Bancker took first and second places respectively in the two dashes and White and Steele took the first two places in the low hurdles. Hazeltine and Drew starred for Amherst winning ten points apiece. Hazeltine captured honors by winning the one and two mile runs in exceptionally good time, and Drew placed first in the high hurdles and the high jump. The outstanding performance of the day was Jack ' ollman ' s record-breaking heave of the hammer, — a distance of 137 feet, which bettered his best past records by sixteen inches. The javelin throw proved also very close and was won by Nivling with a distance of 153 feet 4 inches; this is the best distance he made during the entire season. The final score of the meet was 69-66. The season was quite successful, the home team having won three meets out of four ; and notwithstanding the loss of many of the stars of the team by graduation, the general quality of the men has been so improved that the prospects for another successful season are at least up to par. £ . ; Gerow G.

Captain Hartzell ' s men tied the Little Three competition by losing to Williams and winning from Amherst. The first match of the season was played on April 28 with Yale in New Haven, where the outstanding playing for Wesleyan was done by Mapes, a freshman. In the first home game with N. Y. U. Captain Hartzell was the only victor of the day, defeating Captain Miles in three extra game sets. On the following day the Wesleyan netmen made up for the N. Y. U. defeat by scoring a clean cut victory over Bowdoin. The next day ' s contest with Swarthmore was not so successful. Before a large number of Spring Dance guests the home team was defeated 4-2. The season ' s Little Three contest was be- gun on May 14 when the team journeyed to Amherst and won a hard fought match with a 4-2 score through bril- liant playing in the doubles. From Amherst the team went to Brown where the match was called on account of rain when the score stood 1-1. A week later the Williams netmen came to Middletown and tied the Little Three competition by defeating Wesleyan 8-1. When Middlebury came South to battle on the courts they met, in the singles, with three straight defeats delivered at the hands of Hartzell. Mapes, and King. Then the Vermonters tied the score by two victories in the singles and one in the doubles. By brilliant work in the last doubles Hartzell and Longacre saved the match and the day closed with a 4-3 victory. The next four games were played away from home. At Cambridge, in the third match of the week, the team went stale in the doubles and suffered a 6-0 defeat at the hands of M. I. T. At West Point the cadets took only two of the singles ; at Schenectady Douglass was the only man to • score against Union. The team suffered a 5-1 defeat and returned to Middletown to practice for the last match of the year. Two days later in a match away from home with Springfield College the Wesleyan netmen reversed the Union score by winning three singles and both doubles, and finished the schedule with a decisive victory.

The ball was sent from one end of the court to the other, until the Wesleyan superiority began to manifest itself. Although the shooting was somewhat erratic, Sanders, Van Cott, and Travis played well on the defense. The final score was 43-13. Wesleyan next tackled the Brown outfit in a thrilling contest at Providence, in which the ' local team won a hard-fought game, 30-27. The half score stood at 17-14. The second half proved more thrilling than the first; Wesleyan tied the score at three different times, 17-17, 22-22, and 24-24, before managing to slip ahead of the Providence hoopsters. Dune Jack was the outstanding performer for the home team, chalking up twelve of the thirty points, and was in every play both on the offense and defen.se. In the return game with Brown on our own court, the invaders proved no match, and were overwhelmingly defeated, 48-18. Jack started the ball a-goaling by dropping a pretty field goal in the first minute of play. Throughout the remainder of the game the Wesleyan lead was never menaced. The Wesleyan team next chalked up its fourth straight by vanquishing Mid- dlebury on the home court with a final tally of 38-22. The home team seemed to have an inpenetrable defense, causing Middlebury to resort to occasional long shooting which seldom tallied a goal. Van Cott was the high point scorer for the home team, tallying nineteen points. Bradshaw played a good game at center. The fifth straight victory was the first of the Little Three series with Amherst. The N ' esleyan hoopsters came from behind to defeat the Sabrina five in a close encounter, 25-18. At the first half the invaders had the lead in score 12-6. The home team seemed ex- tremely inaccurate in their shooting, and were unable to locate the basket. Of the six points credited to the Car- dinal and Black, four were made from the foul line. In the second period, the team showed more strength, and rallied to a strong finish with a seven point lead. With their string of victories unbroken, the home team tackled their ancient rivals of the neighboring city, and routed the Trinity five in a 43-13 encounter. This victory over the Blue and Gold marked the sixth straight victory for the Wesleyan team. The first defeat of the season was met at the hands of the Williams team on the ' illiamstown court in the second of the Little Three series. The Purple five managed to wrest a 53-33 victory from our team. Due to the absence of Captain Jack, and unaccustomed to the tiny floor of the ' illiams gymnasium, the Cardinal and Black team was unable to stem the rush of their opponents who tallied thirty-six points as against our eight in the first half. , The seventh victory of the season was gained from Clayton V. Travis tt . h  r i j- r r • ti Captain 19S7-SS Upsala College before a large audience of fair Prom Two Hundred Fifteen guests. The play was slow throughout the game, and the team seemed to be off color. On the trip to Boston, the Weslevan team broke even, earning a victory over Tufts, 37-30, and suffering a defeat by : I. I. T., 28-20. Ths game with Tufts started off with a rush by the Tufts men who were eager to mount up a large .«core similar to last year ' s contest. Spaulding was sent in as forward, and sank basket after bas ket with remarkable accuracy from the corner. In the first few minutes of play in the second half, Wesleyan scored three more baskets in quick succession, and continued through the game with a satisfactory margin. The game with M. I. T. on the following evening, found the team in a reversal cf form, which ended in a defeat for Wesleyan, 28-20. The M. I. T. team com- prised of nearly all six-footers, presented stiff opposition. Massachusetts Aggies were next defeated on our own court before a large group of returning alumni. The early part of the first half was very slow and uninteresting, since the two Aggie guards persisted in keeping the ball to themselves in a little pass it back again play. The last half was featured by snappy passing on the part of the home team, and hard i)laying by the visitors. Bradshaw dropped some excellent shots during the last half. The return game with Williams played at ?.Iiddletown, gave Wesleyan the lead in the I.ittle Three series. The game was char- acterized by an unusual display of speed in the latter half of the contest, ending in a Wes- leyan victory, 32-20. Dunc Jack displayed clever floor generalship, and the accuracy of ' an Cott in shooting, enabled the home team to widen the margin in the scores. Connecticut Aggies vanquished the home team on the Storrs court, 41-26. The next to the last game was played on Trinity ' s court, where Wesleyan handed the Blue and Gold team a severe trouncing, Wes- leyan having control of the ball throughout most of the game. The final game of the season resulted in a defeat by Amherst, thus shattering Wesleyan ' s hopes for the third successive Little Three championship. The defeat resulted in a triple tie between Williams, Amherst, and Wesleyan, A composite of the schedule games, indi- cates that out of the fifteen games played, eleven resulted in victories, and four in defeats.

' fe toimming THE 1926-27 SEASON A team which more closely resembled those of past fame, this season suc- ceeded in acquiring for itself a second place in the Little Three contest and, what is more significant, a second place in the annual meet of the New England Intercollegiate Swimming Association. A record of five victories out of nine encounters is another evidence of the performance of a team, which, while not superb, was still far from mediocre. An innovation in the line of swimming meets started off the season on December fifteenth, namely, the telegraphic meet with the University of Oregon in which Wesleyan came through with a 28-22 victory. Each varsity swam against the freshman team and the times were telegraphed back and forth to determine the results of the meet. January twelfth saw the team in New York where they succumbed to a strong aggregation of Columbia swimmers. The meet ended with the dcore 40 to 22. The following two contests caused a victory and a loss to be chalked up on the Wesleyan records. In a close and exciting meet with Boston University on January fifteenth Wesleyan secured a 38-24 victory. The college records for the 440 yard swim and 200 yard breast stroke were lowered by Parr and Gray respec- tively. A week later the team journeyed to Yale and lost a very one-sided meet by the score of 56 to 6. The first meet after mid-years, held in the home pool before a large number of prom guests, was dropped to Springfield College by 38 to 26. All events were closely contested and its was not until the ' relay was hanging from the belt of the Y. M. C. A. college that the result of the meet was definitely decided. February twelfth marked the triumph of the Cardinal and Black tankmen over Rensselaer Polytech- nic Institute in the home waters by a score of 42-20. The next swim- f est occurred a week later in the pool in Fayerweather Gym when Amherst bowed before the Red and Black, marking the first Little Three swim- ming meet of the season. The opening event, the 40 y ard dash, was entirely Cardinal and Black, Van Deusen and Bodel taking first and second places respectively. Captain Martin came through in something like his old form to take first place in the dives. Peck following after with a second. The final score gave 22 points to the Lord Jeffs and 40 to the Cardinal and Black mermen. February twenty-sixth saw the Wesleyan natators bow before the powerful Williams team in a meet held at Williamstown. Wil- liams was superior in everything but the dives, W. Edgar Martin in which Captain Martin took a first place for Captain 1936-27 Wesleyan. The score was 40-16. -mi Two Hundred Nineteen ( , Laurence R. VanDeusex Captain 1927-28 The final dual meet of the season was won in fine style on March fifth when the Cardinal and Black won a 34-28 victory over the team from the Massachusetts Institute of Tech- nology. On March eleventh and twelfth the New England Intercollegiate Swimming Meet was held once more in the Wesleyan pool. The tankmen from Williams succeeded in amassing a number of points far superior to those of iny other college in the meet. After the thirty- eight points of Williams came Wesleyan with sixteen points, M. I. T. with thirteen, Amherst with nine, and Brown with seven. Wesleyan qualified five men for the finals acquiring as a result a first, a second, three thirds and a fourth. The diving department came through with honors taking the first three places, in )rder, Alartin, Severance, and Peck. The other third place was secured by the relay team con- sisting of Peck, Murtfeldt, Bodel, and Van Deusen.

Cooper Captain and Manager ( oli THE 1926 SEASON The past season was a discouraging one for anyone not vitally interested in golf. Handicapped by the lack of interest of the college body and support of a more solid nature the team had quite a struggle. It w ' as up against teams repre- senting big colleges where there was some fine golf talent attracted by the interest shown in that sport at the various college . In not a single match did Wesleyan come out the victor although coming very close in several. Perhaps the closest match was that with the University of Pennsylvania played at Montclair, New Jersey, when Wesleyan put in a strong bid for supremacy before it was finally downed. All the players deserve commendation, but Cooper, the captain, and Thomp- son stand out especially as very steady players. Thompson was prevented from participating in several matches but his services ought to be available for steady use in the coming season. It was found that the position of manager was more or less an honorary and unnecessary one occasioning the team the additional expenses of one more man so that the Senate decided to incorporate the duties of manager with those of captain. There is some slight intimation of financial aid coming from the athletic council. This, together with the rumors of a Wesleyan golf course faf in the future, is stimulating the backers of golf at the commencement of another season. Tivo Hundred Twenty-three ■■ Si Ralph F.

CaLVIX KuHL DlLTON L. SCL-DDER Leader Manager eas(on 1926=1927 Beginning the season as national champions, the Wesleyan Glee Ckih was faced with a serious challenge. The ambition of last year ' s club had been achieved and to the new group fell the opportunity of maintaining the tradition. The club had everything to lose and could only equal its previous record. For- tunate, indeed, was the organization in that only a few singers had graduated and that the same coach, Mr. E. F. Laubin of Hartford, the same student leader, H. Calvin Kuhl, ' 27, and the same manager, Delton L. Scudder, ' 27, were again available. With these highly encouraging prospects, the individual members of the club resolved to demonstrate that the 1926 successes had not been accidents, and that the title of the singing college of America, which has been claimed by so many colleges at various times, rightfully belonged here in Middletown. With these definite objectives, the club was selected and the long period of rehearsals begun. The first public appearance of the glee club was at the Masonic Temple in Waterbury on November 27. This concert with one at Derby served as tests for the club in preparation for the Christmas trip. These recitals gave promise of successes later achieved. The annual trip, although perhajis not as lengthy as in previous years, was concentrated on five major concerts in important centers and was more conducive to real musical work. The club assembled in East Orange, N. J., on December 27 for the initial performance. Here a large audience, including numerous alumni, heard the singers in the high school and a dance was staged for the visitors. The following day the club journeyed up the Hudson to Albany. In the capital city the concert was given at the Aurania Club some distance from the center of the town. Here. Iikewi.se, an enthusiastic gathering cordially received the club. From Albany a side-trip was taken to the General Electric Company where the Wesleyan men gave a short program over WGY. Late in the afternoon of the 29th the group headed across state to the thriving town of Oneonta. A belated arrival put the club in a none too happy state of mind but the recovery on the stage was sufficient to present a splendid concert. On the next morning promptly at ten the musical representatives of W esleyan clambered into busses and finally started for Syracuse despite a driving snow Two Hundred Thirty-seven storm. This appearance found the club on the highest level, artistically speaking, of the whole trip. After these successes the club deserved a rest before the final appearance and, accordingly, disbanded until January 3rd. After searching the avenues of the metropolis, the manager collected the club and the group performed at the Waldorf-Astoria, giving a completely satis- factory recital for a large assemblage of alumni and friends. The dance was cut short by the return of the singers to attend the opening of college and the first chapel service of the new year. For two weeks the club rested and practiced and on January 15 made a long trip to the vicinity of Boston, where it appeared in a joint concert with the Welles- ley College Choir. A dinner tendered the club at the Wellesley Inn by the Boston alumni brightened the spirits of the men after the tedious trip. The concert was successful in every detail and the joint numbers were well rendered. With the proximity of mid-years, the glee club members, faced with the necessity of remaining eligible, took a respite from their lyrical endeavors and studied. Prom memories were just beginning to fade when the troupe hopped oflf to Philadelphia for the major portion of a week. The three days in Penn- sylvania were crowded full of engagements. A luncheon appearance at the Glee Club dinner of the Penn Athletic Club (one of a number of such luncheons at which national champions along various lines are entertained) ; an evening concert at the Philadelphia Cricket Club, Chestnut Hill, before a highly apprecia- tive audience ; a second luncheon appearance, this one at the City Club ; a second appearance at the Penn A. C, this performance taking place before the largest regular concert audience of the year — some twenty-five hundred people — and com- prising the best concert work of the year. On Friday the 11th the club dashed out to Pottstown where a program was given at the Hill School. A quick return to Philadelphia and then to Middletown found the club at Saturday classes. The same evening, the singers made a short trip over to Watertown, Conn., where they sang before a capacity audience of Taft School students in the Community Theatre. One week later the club was a leading attraction at the alumni banquet in the gym- nasium, where, in return for a beautiful plaque immortalizing its predecessor, this year ' s club responded with several selections. Withdraw- ing before the speeches, the club hastened to New Britain where it gave its usual concert. On Thursday, February 24, the Wesleyan j p:- il ' Club went to Boston to defend and re- : B capture the New England championship. The judges seemed to disagree with the club ' s de- K I m sires and ranked the organization third, twelve V i m P° ' ts behind the winner. To be sure, the m Mm decision was most discouraging but it only • li Ik intensified the energies of the club in antici- „ , nation of the real test, the national at New Edward r. L.aubin t Coach York. Two Hundred Thirty-eight ,« .- Before this crucial contest occurred, however, the club made one appearance. On March 5. the Wesleyan men presented a splendid recital at Mount Holyoke College as a part of the senior week festivities. On March 12 the Wesleyan club traveled down to New York for the national contest. The thirteen clubs in the competition were : Wesleyan, Yale, Princeton, Dartmouth, Columbia, California, New York. Fordham together with the five sectional champions, Missouri, Middlebury, Penn State, Furman, and Ohio Wes- leyan. The club sang exceedingly well and awaited the decision of the judges feeling they had done their best with much doubt. These critics agreed that the Wesleyan club had given the best performance and a splendid lead of twelve points over Missouri and of eighteen points over Yale gave the club its second suc- cessive victory. For another year the cup returned to Middletown. As a part of the appreciation of the glee club, through the initiative of representatives of the College Body the authorities declared a holiday (the first extra one since 1838). March 25 saw the club in a return concert at Waterbury and on the 26th the national champions gave their annual home concert and dance in the gymnasium before a large gathering of students, guests, and townspeople. The final appear- ance lacked nothing in brilliance and thus the season was brought to a suc- cessful close. The numbers on the glee club program were equally divided between college and classical compositions. Of the former group, the Twilight Song by Waite, ' 06, was selected as the Wesleyan song for the intercollegiate contests. This piece is distinguished from the usual type of college song by its effective simplicity coupled with a depth of real sentiment. Of the other college songs, Amici still proved to be a favorite. The Campus Song by Magee, ' 85, has a spirited chorus which fittingly opened each program. Song iMemories by Prof. K. P. Har- rington, 82, is a buoyant composition with a marked accent leading up with a grand crescendo to the powerful last chorus which demanded the full masculine tones. Alma Mater appropriately closed each program, and Secrets by Smith, ' 99 was often used as an encore and this delightful composition quite won the audiences. Of the heavier numbers on the program, the outstanding one was the prize song, Schumann ' s Lotus-Flower, a difficult number but one which gave the various clubs full range of expression. The club, when at its best, brought out the delicate shadings and niceties of the song in a manner approaching perfec- tion. The well-known Sword of Ferrara by Bullard is a martial and vigorous description of incidents in the career of an adventurous sword. The fine balancing of the tenors against the basses in the recitative parts gave an effective contrast, and the reveries of the sword displayed the ability of the club in handling various moods. The Long Day Closes by Sullivan, the choice song for the contests, was a splendid study in harmony and contrasted effects and was the most popular with the club. Autumn Sea by Gericke proved a captivating melody, while the popular negro spiritual, Swing Low, Sweet Chariot , by Reddick showed the ability of the first basses in carrying the air, with the other parts harmonizing effectively in the humming accompaniment. The famous Soldiers ' Chorus from Faust, in unison, for the greater part, but splitting into beautiful harmony at its close, showed the various effects which the club could achieve.

The first one-act play was a serious one, The Traitor, by Pervical Wilde. The seven men in their natty British uniforms adapted themselves easily to the tense situation and revealed the traitor with well acted suspense. J. D. Mixsell, ' 27 and A. P. Winters, ' 28 as superior officers carried their sternness and military brawn through to the end. R. E. Farr, ' 28 acted well the difficult emotional part of the pretended traitor who deceived Capt. Willoughby (L. E. Carter, ' 27) into revealing himself as the real traitor, much to the amazement of the other officers. The Trysting Place, a simple Booth Tarkington play, was made unusually attractive by smooth acting. W. R. Locke, ' 28 as the love-sick youth of seven- teen made his part amusing as well as natural, while D. Weatherbee, ' 26, the young widow, repelled his advances with grace and charm. Weidenhammer, ' 29 fitted into his character part of the elderly bachelor-lover with the ease and natural behavior of a man who has waited long for the woman of his dreams. The Mysterious Voice which startled the lovers and attracted the audience turned out to be R. J. Murphy, ' 29, who was interested in no one but Mrs. Curtis. Although these parts were small, they were all well done and brought out much new material which was used in the Prom play of 1927. Austin Strong ' s Three Wise Fools developed into a very well chosen piece for a Prom production. The setting was simple, and the comedy light was witty, and above all splendid characterization was not neglected by the cast. The Three Wise Fools were three elderly gentlemen: Mr. Findlay, irrasible and trying to conceal his kind heart, was made a part worthy of the high praise it received. Mr. Murphy ' s voice and expression in this role won the admiration of the entire audience. Mr. Winters as the calm and dignified Dr. Gaunt was an admirable foil for the inilmitable Findlay, and Mr. Jacobsen looked and acted remarkably well in the part of the kindly Judge Trumbull. Sidney Fairchild, a pretty girl of eighteen or so, was a pleasing contrast to theSe old habit-bound gentlemen. Mr. Bodel in this part sobbed, laughed, and reformed them wth unmistakably well-acted charm. She was worthy of the love she won from the wealthy and immaculate Gordon. Mr. Whitworth is always sure of much praise when he takes the part of a young and handsome lover. Of the minor parts, that of Benny the Duck acted by Mr. Russel appealed most to the audience. He carried the part of the crook with a spirit that gave color and atmosphere to the mystery. Mr. Mixsell was an English butler with that air of professional respectability that bespoke years in that worthy service. He was ably assisted in his duties by Mr. Cerina as second man and Mr. Parr as housekeeper. The part of the detective carried by Mr. Carter was performed with the smoothness and confidence of an old hand at the game, which confidence was reflected in his assistants, Messrs. Millspaugh and Coffin. Tivo Hundred Forty-five Miss Nejako ' s excellent coaching has clone as much to advance an interest in dramatics as it has to increase the fibre and polish of the acting. As each year closes there is always a hope and a hint of something better, something definite to be done in behalf of dramatics. As this book appears there are more hopes and well founded hints than ever before that we are at last to have our dramatics put on a more solid basis. We sincerely hope that all these reports are going to materialize. Commencement $lap£i North College Steps, June 18, 1926 Col. Austruther Major MacLaurin Capt. Grantham Capt. Bates Capt. Parker Capt.

Its influence and activity, however, are not confined to Middletown, but the effects of its notable work are felt in surrounding towns and in foreign nations. On campus the Association does a great deal to stimulate and direct constructive thinking, not only on questions theological in nature, but also on educational, industrial, and social problems. Its ideals are being propounded in foreign countries by representative men whose work is aided by the contributions made to the College Church. We now have representatives in religious and educational work in China, Japan, India, Egypt, and Syria. It is to the Christian Association that we are indebted for the opportunities we have enjoyed of hearing, and further of being able to confer with, some of the leaders in the religious world whom they have brought to our campus. During the past year it has been the privilege of the student body to have as a guest Bill Simpson, a man who expresses the highest Christian ideals in his philosophy and in his simplicity of living. The Association has been the sponsor of several deputations to outlying towns where religious and social activities have been conducted by the delegates. These trips have proved beneficial not only to the persons who have been able to receive the ideas conveyed to them by the visitors, but the students also have the chance to gain a new outlook on life. The formation of a congress of Young People ' s Societies among the local churches has caused the influence of Wesleyan ' s Chris- tian leadership to be felt in Middletown. Wesleyan has also been represented at important student conferences by means of the Association ' s work. A delegation of fifteen attended the Student Christian Conference at Northfield last June and during the past year we were represented at the Student Christian Mission at Waterbury in September and at the National Student Christian Conference in Milwaukee which was held during the Christmas recess. Possibly one of the greatest and best known of the organization ' s local activi- ties has been the planning and execution of the Student Parley, which has for the past two years excited so much enthusiasm and interest on campus. This year ' s Parley was made memorable by the excellence of its leaders and by the large number of delegates in attendance from other institutions. Parleys such as these cannot fail to shed light on some of the perplexing problems of modern education and student life. Further activities are the periodical meetings of discussion groups, religious meetings, the freshman hike, smokers, expeditions to the House in the Field, and the conducting of an undergraduate employment agency. 7 1( Hundred Fifty-five Cfje Cfjurcb of Cfjnsit in WBMtvm nibersiitp James Lukens McConaughy, Ph.D., LL.D.

Come pledge to Gamma Psi, old chap, And wear a sky-blue drinking cap. Be careful crossing our front lawn, The water-holes are not all gone. And don ' t step on the front porch yet, You see, the paint is sort of wet. Come be an Alpha Chi Rho pard And help the boys clean up the yard. Come sip a mug with Delta Tau, Forget the prohibition law; There ' s not a single thing to fear, No one will find us way out here. You ' ll save on dues at any rate, ' e don ' t initiate till late. Two Hundred Sevcnly-cir;I ' .t c We study here and we don ' t fool, Each man belongs to Sunday-school. Although we ' re local in a way, We may get national some day ; And don ' t talk back but bear your fate Commons Clubbers can all debate. A Beta button on your vest Will set you out from all the rest. The house we have is pretty nice, Our goat-room ' s free from rats and lice, Perhaps our front-porch roof is gone But wait a while, we ' ll put one on. You ' ll feel at home in D. K. E. It looks just like a jail you see. There ' s not another house at all That has a Sing-Sing spiked stone wall. We ' re Kappa Betas in disguise. For Jackson Cup we ' re booby prize. Do you know how to swim old dear ? You ' ll have to learn for dance times here. If you join Alpha Delt young feller, You can play ping-pong in the cellar. We like the Southerners, by dammie. Join if you have a colored mammie. Sometimes we have Rhodes scholars here, We get one good man every year. Our house was once fit for a king ' Till Phi Ku Theta spoiled the thing. Join D. U. and your marks go up. We almost won the Jackson Cup. Our rebuilt lau ' dge is pretty slick, We ' re paying for it brick by brick. Say boy, you pulled in every vote, Come wear a beer-sign on your coat To be a member of Chi Psi, And will us money when you die. Two Hundred Seventy-nini . In some ways we ' re a bit erratic, We have our goat-room in the. attic. How do you like our big stuffed deer? We found it in Judd Hall last year. Both man and beast adore our hedge. Be sand-bagged and a Psi U. pledge ! Eclectic House is pretty old ; Our badge is almost solid gold, In pawn it brings you quite a lot. And say boy, all the drag w e ' ve got ! Look at the profs, that joined this frat. At mid-years you ' ll be glad of that. It ' s wrong to call this Ivy Hall, There ain ' t no ivy here at all. We don ' t have house-taxes or dues, W e don ' t smoke much, we don ' t drink booze, And I will risk the speculation We ' ll get the largest delegation. The freshman ' s mind was in a daze; He cursed each house in fifty ways, And then with serious intent He went up to the president, And said in tones of sad remorse, I ' ll take a correspondence course. Two Hundred Eighty s ' V e r ' ■ y i i)e Senate The picture of this august body usually is mistaken for the Wasp Staff. It has been designated as the Jack-Bischoflf Forensic Society, but twenty-five other members are listed on the roll. Here important college problems arise, such as the annual question of gold soccer balls. The members exchange words of four syllables and occasionally a motion is made — if a quorum survives the shock, a recommendation is passed on to a snappy meeting of the college body. Their most momentous achievement has been the formation of new rushing rules. The only result was a recent dividend declared by the Lead Pipe Trust. Once in a while they assemble disguised as the Conference Committee to audience a monologue. This they do well — if the similarity to chapel does not invoke snores. As the official battle ground for fraternity and senior society politics, jjerhaps its existence is justified. Ki)t Cfjrisitian ' otiation Wesleyan would not be Wesleyan without this organization. Its product is fellowship — poured over the undergraduates in many forms. Itjs fostered by two leaders . Ev, who has nearly lived down the stigma of a four year residence at the Alpha Delt House, and Plug, who still wears his Phi Bete key. To visit a college tailor you must pass their reading rooms . A freshman was seen here once. In these rooms are kept files of abstract questions dished out to visiting Hindus, Jews, and Chinamen. The association boasts many moral victories in these encounters. One of the association ' s biggest activities is the so-called deputation teams , whose objective is to bring religion to the campus and Wesleyan to the surrounding villages. After the resignation of several Presidents, Herb May was finally hooked from the infirmary so that he now attends not only to the physical but the moral ills of the college. Other contributions of the asso- ciation consist of the Handbook, the Freshman Hike and Discussion Groups, Wes- leyan in China, and the House in the Field. P.S. — The Christian Association is a religious organization. Two Hundred Eighty-two Cfje urbep Committee That we might appreciate the progress of these far-sighted students who have blossomed in our midst, let us trace the history of this — the answer to the prayers of college presidents. The idea hit the chairman, who, living in the Deke house, discovered many college problems. Accordingly he drafted a squad of stenographers and set out to make Wesleyan the best small liberal arts college in Middletown. The next step was to solve world problems, which were settled by a vote in chapel. As a result wars are outlawed, professors ' salaries are to be raised, and last but not least, our natural resources are to be preserved ! ! ! At least this committee has done something original and not copied any other reports like those of Dartmouth, Bowdoin, etc. The rumor was circulated that this was a publicity scheme fostered by Carrie Nation and our eminent and kindly college physician. A statement has been received from each. Said Miss Nation, Apres moi, le diluge . In turn Gar replied. Our goal post must be preserved! The Committee also decided we should learn about sex. Curriculum Clulis; That this institution exists may be verified by thumbing through the activi- ties section. Why this term is applied would make a good subject for either a Ph.D. thesis or a Congressional investigation. Five causes may be assigned for the existence of these exclusive groups. First, the desire for an extra meal a week even though the menu includes only neapolitan ice-cream and nabiscos. The second, and perhaps the greatest cause is the opportunity provided for scut- ting professors. Comprehensives do roll up quickly. A third important reason is the Olla Podrida picture and accompanying point. The fourth cause is the membership emblem — principally the key. The finishing touch to the collegiate product is in their hope that particularly near-sighted old ladies will mistake them for Kappa Beta Phi emblems. The last, and in some cases only possible reason, is the gregarious instinct. Perhaps this explains the present Stygian existence of the William James Club. TziO Hundred Eighty-three € lee Cluti This is a group of men with stage fright and a sense of humor. Throughout the winter they stage concerts in the surrounehng hamlets to give the home girls a treat. Glee Clubbiiig is fast becoming a major sport at Wesleyan. This year only one contest was lost, and that was a moral victory — all the umpire ' s fault . This sport admits Female Institutions as opponents — in fact Wellesley didn ' t get as far as first base. The chief utility of these warblers is as an advertising aid to Herb Connelly. In fact his motto now reads, every last man a picked scholar, a sterling personality, and a silver-voiced tenor . The seven wonders of the glee club are : a second tenor ; the so-called Serenaders ; Patricelli, the Irish Night- ingale ; H. Calvin Kuhl, the leader; Cal. Kuhl, the soloist; Henry C. Kuhl of the string quartet ; and the baritone of the Jibers, Hank Kuhl. It is a notable fact that four of these are from Jersey City. feuU anb Serpent This name is derived from the members who include a few skulls and as for the number of snakes — write your own ticket. It is familiarly called the Bank — but it is not to be confused with a sand bank because of the amount of dirt easily unearthed upon investigation. The building is used for many other purposes than the weekly connival — such as after-party parties, and a residence for members suspended from their fraternities. Herb Herrlich, toreador supreme, and Stuby, the hard woiking biologist from Jersey City are to be found here. Many weighty campus problems are discussed, later delineated in communications to the Argus, such as the contour of freshman hats. The most recent triumph of this clique is the adoption by Congress of the Schweiker method of filibuster. jHpgtical eben The appellation Gas House is well earned. To convince yourself merely pass by some Monday evening when the inmates are gathered about their mystic cauldron . The resignation of Brother Hartzell from the Y. M. C. A. Presidency suggests that the content of said cauldron warrants investgation. This organiza- tion formerly was a national, and at that time held a good reputation. The split of a faction to form Delta Kappa Epsilon in 1867, and Beta Thete a little later, shows the degrading effect it has had upon the college. Here also is where the campus politicians meet to divide their booty in the presence of the Douglas cannon and their mummy. They are called Mystical Seven because they are seven and Bischoff — who is ilanthropic — he rooms with Kuhl. No rose — look at his forget-me-not face. 0ankful — for his motorman ' s hat. Said motorman ' s hats which give their heads an external brilliance, are to dis- tinguish thern from the conductor ' s hats of their traditional and hated rivals, the S S boys. Tivo Hundred Eighty-four _ 9 fje Meglepan rpg Tradition assigns the naming of this campus joke to the original editor — the bird with a thousand I ' s. He since has become the patron saint of all editors. Two white jxjrcelain monuments to the movement he started may be found in the basement of the gymnasium. There are t -o reasons for reading this organ . The first is as a reminder of news long forgotten, and the second is that of the Ollo-Pod-point-boys who never fail to search between the ads for mention of their names. This latter justifies the printing of more than a dozen copies. Tem- porary interest was aroused last fall through a hoax officially dubbed The Prism . But much gall does not a Prism make , and after much thumbing of the nose it became better known as the light that failed. At least it reminded us of the existence of the editorial page. trije OTagp The Wasp is a funny magazine — ask any member of the staff. Said staff consists of two or three undergraduates who just spout funny sayings and jokes that keep their fraternity brothers roaring. They either roar or throw some- thing. This epitome of ' esleyan wit generally makes a noisy debut (and invari- ably its greatest sales) at an alumni re-union or a dance week-end. It is then a real investment — thirty cents saves untold mental travail and conversational effort. Last year this source of laughs had a one-handed business board, con- sequently the books showed a $2.28 profit. The editor is rumored to have a season pass to the Capitol ; every wheeze that draws a guffaw goes on the cuff. It is often difficult to recognize some of them. To be printed a joke must concern either gin, necking and gin, or necking. The snaj)py cover is usually a bit more moist than the puns inside ; but tays the staff. you can ' t scare a fish with a rain- storm . It would seem that the gentlemen have a point. fje Alumni Council Perhaps you too have missed the entrance to the For Your Convenience Gift Shop, and stumbled into the hotbed of efficiency. No round pegs in square holes are found here ! In the inner office is found a most important machine, which manufactures two products : less lost motion , and blotters. The former product is turned out in great quantities, and few seniors escape the deluge. Perhaps this is the reason for the blotters. TTiis is also the source of Rah Rah Raw Material , an interesting and instructive publication. We learn that we are picked scholars and sterling personalities. Small wonder that the author avoids dark alleys. The latest tour de farce was the distribution of invisible appli- cation blanks revealing a minimum of lost motion. Report has it that the Student Survey Committee is about to dub this organization a problem.

Two Hundred Eighty-nine • - Moman=?|atersi — are of two classes and in both classes the name is merely a camouflage : There are the bald-headed bachelors who, lost in the shuffle, decry the pursuit of woman as a game of- chance with the cards stacked from the start. Man does not play the game, he merely turns up cards as he is told and promptly has them trumped. Even when man leads with a proposal, woman can still trump it by accept- ing him. : So, unwilling to admit defeat, these have-beens, term themselves woman- haters . Theirs is a case of sour grapes. Then there is the future generation, those untried fledglings, who stand timidly on the edge of the nest waiting to be pushed off into a cold world ; they haven ' t the nerve to jump off themselves. Their case scarcely merits discussion. Just as a small boy says, I ' m not afraid of lions, bears, or anything , so these youths let the world know that women mean nothing whatever to them. Just as the small boy later finds out that lions and bears may be feared ; so the youth discovers that women are also to be reckoned with. But the pathetic part of it is that they won ' t admit their discovery. They •think it ' s He-mannish to treat the fair sex with polite disdain and so they -call themselves woman-haters and take to criticizing something with which Ihey haven ' t the courage to become acquainted. This attitude is like a rubber band. By affecting it, they stretch it and the lension becomes tighter and tighter until it — snaps. Then, things begin to happen. The demand for perambulators is just as high as ever. f)e Jnfirmarp When 1 was sick and lay a-bed I had two pillows at my head ; And stretched out on the cot I lay To get my free cuts day by day. And sometimes for an hour or so I watched the little bed-bugs go, With different uniforms and drills Among the bed-clothes, through the hills. Two Hundred Ninety-two f - -f r . Sometimes perhaps I ' d move my feet And in so doing tear the sheet ; Or sneak my pack of Luckies out When I knew no one was about. But when I was no longer sick, And they said I should leave them quick, Was I slow to get out because I liked the place ? — Like Hell I was ! (Apologies to Stevenson) How doth the little Overland as overland it goes To Guildersleeve and back again excepting when it snows? Transporting snow and poetry in winter, spring, and fall, The wonder ' s not that it transports, but that it runs at all. Boccaccio ' s Decameron is readable to Clark. In Spanish, French, and Portuguese he ' s surely made his mark. But there ' s a thing that troubles me : why does he part his hair Each day so very carefully? There ' s little of it there! A guide, philosopher, and friend and mentor to the frosh, Our Alexander Cowie thinks Boccaccio is bosh. And for a further contrast to Professor Clark, his hair Is very much like Paradise, there ' s no parting there. A graduate of Oberlin with hair upon his chest. Doc Fauver is an expert, for he knows just what is best For college laddies ailments. No matter what our ills The remedy is simple; just a dose of Fauver ' s pills. Professor Raynor ' s classes are his students ' joy and pride. An hour of fine amusement is assured when once inside. But I fear he doesn ' t like our old Observatory Hall For while he ' s teaching calculus he cannot smoke at all. Two Hundred Ninety-three ( % Momen re like iBookg From t elve to one is my chameleon hour, It changes with the way I wish to spend The time between my eons with the pen. On sunny days I wander in the park And watch the chesty pigeons busk their wings. On foggy days I huddle with the people In the street and watch the pool of life That swirls beneath the geyser of the noon. In spring the sunlight sings of trees and grass. And hurrying through my beans and milk, I sometimes Pass a full half hour upon the avenue Watching dressed up girlies high heel by Before returning to my desk and stool. But hours that later make me feel the warmth Of afterglow inside are those I spend with John, my friend. John runs a narrow bookshop called The Xook , And after breaking ice by asking for a book We talk, or rather I hush up, because The years of watching faces from his dusty stall Have made him think. The day I have in mind was one in which I gathered all my boldness, and inquired For his reaction to a momentary fad — The Hard Boiled Virg in as it now comes back to me. Instead of answer terse and sharp he stood, ' ith glassy eye, and slowly came the voice From distant mind — so far away, and hollow, I thought of shouting down the well when we were kids. All women are like books , was what escaped his lips, All of them are books ! They fall in categories Just like those I place upon my shelves ! That woman passing by is like a novel. If you should pick her out to be your wife You ' d know from introduction how the ending ' ould turn out : but you ' d keep on with hope Of some new twist or turn to drag you from The sticky sweetness of complacency. But no one sees beyond the final page — She is the Xora of A Doll ' s House . Two Hundred Kinctx-four ' —. I That creature with the glasses is the Book of Helpful Hints . A score of years ago her type were Suffragettes, But now with boyish bob and mannish stride She takes to Bridge and local politics. Most efficient, never makes mistakes. Panacea for all but empty homes and hearts. That trim young miss who yonder parks her car Is still another kind, the Best Short Stories type, Each day is but a new adventure done — New gossip for the dowagers at bridge, Who in affected horror resurrect their early fun. She thrills with interest of a momentary kind. But once the climax reached she passed out of mind. Across the street we see the Book of Games . The walk, the hat, enameled face with Pores all powder filled, and after she has Swaggered by, the linger of a cheap perfume. But yet this book finds room upon the shelf, She charms the wage slave from his dreary toil. Erases dullness of the desk and shop. To him who reads this book is always found Another page to scan or game to play. H curious, you may read the book clear through. If wise, perhaps one glance will do. The book that yet must make our shelf complete Is poetry, truth ' s voice in beauties form. Most difficult to classify is she — Adaptable to mood or random whim. Her character seems formless as a mist — Yet solid as a cliff — beauty ' s strength. A rare book this, await it patiently : Philosophos may be the guide of life But for companionship chose poetry.

The student viewpoint — your viewpoint — is ever before us. We con- sider the book not a mere combination of paper, ink and boards, but a permanent record, built up of the things that make school and college life so dear. We help you arrange and plan it as only a specialist can do. Typography that graces the page, with proper balance and harmony. Pictures sharp and clear like the original photograph (possible only through a patented process), and binding in covers that stay bound — a completed, perfect book. A College Annual Department, composed of college men, college trained as editors or managers, and now as book craftsmen, is now serving many of the leading Eastern Schools and Universities, in some cases for six consecutive years.
