Jacobs ■ w V u M. JACOBS was horn July IGth, 1860. and brous ht vip on a farm near Little Palls, ilonongalia County. ]I( attended the public school in the winter and did farm work dui ' in ' the sunnner and fall months. He taught school in Clinton Disti ' ict from 1879 to 1884 and was merchant, railroad aiicnt. and postmaster at Little Falls from 1884 to 1895. Mr. Jacobs moved to Fairmont in 189r) and is today Presi- dent of Fairmont Mould Foundry Co., and Manajjer of the Jacobs-Hutchinson Hardware Co. He is President of the Fair- mont Chamber of Connnerce, Treasurei- of Stevenson Grocery Co., Director in The National P.ank of Fairmont, The Fairmont Hotel, Y. M. C. A., and Business Men ' s Association. He is also Vice President of the Greater Fairmont Investment Co., and Cook Hospital Co. He served with credit as a memljcr of the House of Delegates in 1907 and in the special session of 1906 and did good work on some of the most important committees of these two sessions. Mr. Jacobs is now serving as a member of the Draft Board at Fairmont and wears a selective service medal, which he is very proud to po.ssess. He prizes very highly a letter to his Board from President Wilson and General Crowder, commending them for their splendid work, done without compensation, for the National Army.

' x Wax department 1 O L A i kr u I5l)e arKDepartmeutl of l e Mlontlcola HE MoNTicoLA, like other institutions and activities of merit, does not escape being influenced by the great world war; nor indeed does the Monticoi.a desire to be immune from being affected by the great struggle. Since the war had to come, and since the United States has taken up arms for Dcnioeraey and it is now our war the Monticola is glad to be touched by the war. West Virginia University ' s part in the war has been no mean part. Turn through the pages of this war department of the Monticola and read our honor roll of students at the front, note the starred names everywhei ' e throughout the book in its other departments, .stars representing service men, go about our Univei-sity buildings and .see our numerous service flags bearing mute but glorious testimony of the bravery of West Virginia University men and you will have abundant reason for our war department of the Monticola. This new opportunity to show an added honor to our boys at the front, and not because of the mere timeliness of the war as a current historical fact is the real motive for publishing our war department. The makers of the Monticola feel that the engravings and the articles which go to make up this part of the book add ma- terially to the value of the ] Ionticola. They feel also, with all true dwellers among mountains, that this war department will be one of the most cherished sections of the 1919 Monticola, and that when YOU turn these pages it can be known and re- membered with pride that our boys did not fail at the call. With this aim in view the 1919 Monticola presents its war department. i - • r 1 M N T I OLA H Obe (Lall w V u I.

Big Drive This Week to Secure Unanimous Con- tributions. The Students ' Friendship War Fund totaled $3,325 Saturday night. This included no faculty pledges and rep- resented the gift of 778 students, al- most 90 percent of the student body. ll-5- ' 17. $3,916 Is Total Subscribed To Students Friendship War Fund West Virginia University Has Pledg- ed Large Amount; Faculty Will IVlake Contributions This Week. NOVEMBER 14 IS FIRST PAY-DAY West Virginia University campaign for the War Fund will close this week and it is hoped that the five thousand dollar goal will have been attained. The treasurer, D. M. Willis, an- nounced Saturday evening that he has received in pledges $3916. The clerical force of the University made a good showing in the campaign, one hundred percent contributing with a total of $130. Over ninety percent of the students now in regular attend- ance at the University have raaf ' e pledges to the fund. Members of the faculty are making their pledges this week and turning in their cards to the financial secretary. The cards so far returned indicate liberal sub- scriptions. 11-12- ' 17. 11 $4,000 Mark Is Passed In Friendship War Fund West Virginia Is Wearing Goal — IVIany Faculty Members Have Fail- ed to Report — Campaign Will Close. The Student Friendship Fund has now gone over $4000 at the University and is gradually nearing the goal set at the beginning of the campaign. fvlany members of the faculty have not yet handed their cards to Profes- sor Willis, but it is believed that enough cards will come in this week lo swell the total to $5000. Personal solicitations for pledges practically ended with the close of (he campaign a week ago, and any who have not yet contributed to the fund and desire to do so should see the financial secretary in his office in 2 Martin Hall. 11-19-17. Friendship War Fund Reaches $4,300 Mark Contributions Come in Very Slowly, But Secretary Lewellen Hopes to Reach Goal Set by December 15th. Only a few contributions were made to the Student Friendship War Fund during the past week, and Monday morning the total pledged was slight- ly over $4,300. Seventy-three mem- bers of the faculty have made their pledges. Secretary Lewellen hopes to secure the $700 required to finish the sum subscribed by the University and to make a final report on Decem- ber 15. n-26- ' 17. w V u m N T I OLA I ( V U Young Women of University Organize For Red Cross Auxiliary Unit Formed at Woman ' s Hall and Girls Pledge Their Efforts. Friday evening, the girls of Wo- man ' s Hall assembled in the parlor and organized an auxiliary of the Red Cross Chapter of Morgantown. Miss Colburn was elected chairman and she presented the plans for the work. The back parlor will be turned into a sewing room and the chairman will keep a supply of sewing at hand. The girls have each pledged to sew an hour a week and extra time if pos- sible. The outlook is promising and with the enthusiasm that is being shown a large amount of work will be turned out. 10-22- ' 17. Second Performance of Passing Show Yields $425 for Red Cross Large Audience Hears Revised Pro- gram Given by the Girls at the Strand Theater Thursday Evening. Playing before a packed house, the University girls gave a second per- formance of The Passing Show at the Strand Theater last Thursday night. The net proceeds amounting to $425 were for the use of the Red Cross and the war tax which was collected also goes to the local Red Cross. The de- mand for seats was great and every- thing was sold before the time for the performance. l-22- ' 18. Red Cross Secures 200 Members in University West Virginia Girls Conduct Booth for Big Drive Here — Men Help. Almost 200 new members were se- cured tor the local chapter of Red Cross by the drive carried on Thurs- day and Wednesday of last week at the University. A score of young men and women interested in the cause worked untiringly to secure new members, and by Wednesday night there was no student enrolled in the T niversity who had not been given an opportimity to become a member, and tnere were only an isolated few who had not joined the organization. A booth was set up in Martin Hall at which applications for member- ship were received. A girl in Red Cross nurse ' s costume received the applications. There was always one or more young men detailed to assist. A large University Red Cross service flag with white field and b]ue border was hung near the booth, and every member placed his small red cross on the flag. 2-12- ' 18. 110 University Girls Work for Red Cross Girls Are Devoting One Hour Each Week — More Workers Are Needed. Is your name on the roll of Red Cross Workers? If it isn ' t, you have not yet pledged yourself to do one hour ' s work a week at the University Red Cross room . During the past week new names have been added to the list until now there are 110 girls who give one hour a week to Red Cross work. A great deal of interest is being shown by the girls and the Red Cross room is a very busy place at all hours of the day. There are always room for more workers, though, and those girls who have not pledged themselves to work should do so at once. .•J-IS- ' IS. -1 L v 12 T West Virginia Will Join American University Union Faculty Provides That University Men Will Have Privileges in Paris — Many Institutions Represented. Members of the University faculty have definitely provided that West Virginia will enter the American Uni- versity Union, an organization de- signed to meet the needs of the thous- ands of American university and col- lege men who are or will be in Europe for military or other service in the cause of the Allies. During the recent camp.aign for funds to carry on the work of the Young Men ' s Christian Association, the faculty decided that $100.00 of its contribution should be applied on a membership in the Union. The membership fee will be sent in at once, and West Virginia men over- seas will give all the privileges of the Union. $600 Realized From University Minstrel; Benefit War Fund Three Big Acts in Show — Errett Rod- gers Stars in Hula Dance and Fan Danc e — Cabaret Girls Score Big Hit Over .56CC was the amount turned over to the Army Y. M. C. A. fund as the proceeds of the Military Min- strel given by the University men at the Strand theater Thursday. Feb- ruary 28. The minstrel registered the most pronounced financial success in TJniversity history. Every seat and all the available standing room was sold out long before the p- rformance. In addition to its financial success the minstrel scored a big hit as an entertainment. The audience re- ceived the songs, dances and comedy acts with the greatest enthusiasm. Some exceptionally clever comedy and singing made the minstrel an excellent show and won it a place in the ranks of high class entertainment. 3-5- ' 18. Course in French Conversation Is Offered Following the example set by other colleges in giving practical courses needed in wartime, Prof. A. L. Dar- by is offering a course in French con- versation. The class meets once a week, on Saturday morning, and al- though no credit is offered for the course, a great interest is being taken in it. About thirty-five students were present at the first meeting. The ob- .iect of the course is not to help stu- dents in their other French courses, but is chiefly for those who feel that they may require a practical speak- ing knowledge of the language. Sev- eral members of the class expect to be in France soon, either as soldiers or as relief workers, and this course will give them the knowledge of the language which wil be absolutely necessary there. University Will Train Operators for Signal Corps Expert Telegrapher to Assist Profes- sor Waggoner in Course. Complying with a special request of the war department the department of physics announced that beginning Monday, October 1st, a course in tele- graphy, (wire and wireless, telephony and signalling as outlined by the sig- nal corps of the U. S. army, would be offered in the University as a part of the regular curriculum. The course will be open only to men of the draft age and is expected to appeal espe- cially to those in the second and third calls for the draft army. The state of West Virginia must furnish 300 telegraph operators, according to the announcement of the war department, and since only an elementary knowl- edge of electricity and magnetism is necessary to start the course it is ex- pected that an exceptionally large en- rollment will be developed. m N T I C O L A § w V u Fifteen Engineers Are Graduated for Service After Study All Through Summer, Men Have Completed Work ' and Are Ready for the Call to Service. The senior class of the College of Engineering which is being graduated this month, was addressed at the weekly convocation Wednesday niorn- ing by D. B. Reger, assistant state geologist, and Professor C. R. Jones, dean of the college, who presided in the absence of President Trotter. Commenting on the graduation of this emergency class, Dean Jones said, Schools in normal times have never been able to supply sufficient scientifically trained men to meet the need. Since our nation entered the war, we have been compelled to speed up everything and go beyond what one thought was the fixed limit. The College of Engineering, to do its part in meeting the extraordinary demand, arranged a continuous course through the past summer and contin- uing until the present time, whereby the seniors of the engineering col- lege who otherwise would have re- ceived their degrees next June, might be graduated a half year earlier to meet the demands of the present crisis. The graduating engineers are: Civil Engineers. — E. C. Bennett, L. V. Carpenter, now teaching in Fair- mont Normal; C. W. McCutcheon, Marvin E. Rahl, now a second lieu- tenant at Fort Sam Houston. Mechanical Engineers. — L. H. Bog- hosian, R. W. Bruner, A. M. Hagan, R. W. Ward, J. S. Williamson, R. W. Wilmoth. Electrical Engineers. — D. F. Cronin, H. G. Headlee, J. G. Montgomery, W. P. Raemsch, M. H. Thorn. 12-15- ' 17. Closing of the College of Agriculture April 5 Releases Many for Farm Ag. College Will Meet War-Time Crisis By Releasing Students and Faculty to Produce Moore Food. The war-time demand for more food is the reason why the College of Agri- culture will close April 5. The stu- dents and the faculty of the College will be assigned to different localities throughout the state, with the specific purpose to help the people of West Virginia produce record-breaking crops, with a reduced supply of labor. It is believed that by sending these 75 trained agriculturists into practical farm work an appreciable Increase in crop-production will result. All senior students will do county agent work, organize clubs among farm people, and will supervise garden and crops and cultivation. The work they do from April 5 to June will be considered as essential to their re- ceiving a degree. The seniors will re- turn for commencement and will be graduated. w u (D 14 N T I OLA 3fonor ! oU Adams, Charles Sisson Adams, Isaac Maxwell Adams, John Ross Allen, Carl Beaty Allen, Lynn Leslie Amos, Clay Dille Amos, Paul Emery Anderson, Harry James Anderson, James Lee Anderson, Lane Schofield Andrews, Edward Cornelius Armstrong, Robert Harman Arnett, Harold Ivanhoe Arnold.

Our nation wails no longer, At last we burnish bright Our swords, and hurry lorward To battle for the right. The world with all its peoples Is turbulent with war; The allied hosts with courage Engage a modern Thor — A giant clad in armor And drunk with lust of blood. Who scouts the pledge of nations And spurns the law of God. From Oxford and St. Andrews, Prom Paris, Rome, Louvain, From Harvard, Yale, and Stanford, In one unending train The students march in khaki. Prepared to pay the price. For Truth prepared to offer The crowning sacrifice. In this, the world-wide muster On Freedom ' s battle-ground, The boys of West Virginia In foremost ranks are found. Good-bye, we said when willows Were telling of the spring. Good-bye, we said when red-birds To snowy branches clin.g. In watch-towers and in trenches, On fields where death-fire rains, On decks where cannon thunder, On vaulting aeroplanes. There stands the college student And from his soul there springs The pledge to end forever The insolence of kings. So be it, and when bullets Their hiss of hate shall cease, Then come our brave boy heroes Back to their tasks of peace. Right royal is the welcome That waits their safe return. Undying is the glory Which Freedom ' s torch shall burn. —MARY BERNICE SrOTT, ' 19. w V u ■■m%m OLA r FACULTY Frank Butler Trotter, A.M., LL.D.

Clark Secretary John Hopkins Treasurer Anna A. Cowley Historian R. E. MuLLiN Inter-Class Council w V u HlAIL to the Sophomores, the glorious class of 1920! Its members constitute a vital worth while class, proving the old adage that in ffl union there is strength. Due to the loyalty of each individual to his class, it has been able to stand firm and unscathed. Facing a different set of existing conditions than any Sophomore class heretofore, it naturally has responded to tho.se conditions in such a way as to make its history quite different and di.stinct. Possessing the spirit of determination and loyalty, it has done the things it best could do to show its love for our school and country. Its boys have gone in large numbers to fight the battles of our nation and everywhere they are doing things that reflect nothing but honor and credit on West Virginia University and the class of ' 20. Acknowledgement, of course, is made to the men who have gone to the front from other classes. The men who have remained here at school as also the women are meeting and performing their tasks in a most patriotic manner. In work and sports, in campaigns and drives, everyone has done his part and more. Sophomores are excelling in all activities. In Dramatic work .such as the Passing Show, the Y. M. C. A. Minstrel and the Dramatic Club Play, both of which will be given later, the members of the class of ' 20 are doing their bit well. They are not neglecting their duty in Y. M. and Y. W. C. A. and are also making a fine showing in athletics of all kinds. Everywhere, they are ready and walling to dedicate their time and services to helpful and uplifting projects. With such a record as this class made during its Freshman year to serve as a basis and foundation of siiccess, it is steadily building its com- plete record which will be left behind as a guide for many classes to come. Its chief hope is that it will continue togrow in strength and spirit so as to be sincere, sympathetic, loyal, direct, big and true to all dealings that lead to the best interests of West Virginia University. 84 I®1 T 1 OLA I® V V CO J CJ K ai o s o 5C IX o 03 w V u M OLA ■I vv r U THE LIBRARY SCIENCE HALL g(i fi N T 1 C O L A 1 w w V u rt a -crVJU Lo !. 11 IFRESHHEIJ 87 1 ■ |« n N T OLA w V u jF re5l)manllfl5tor Class of 1921 Paul Price President W.

Ralph Maxwell Historian Lawrence Wagener Inter-Class Council T HE Freshman ( ' lass, entering West Virginia University in Septem- ___ ber of 1917, was the largest in the history of the institution. We H S arc still a large class, for not many of our number have been called to the colors, through the Selective Draft. However, several of our boys have enlisted and the number of voluntary enlistments will con- stantly increase, if the war continues. We .selected green and white as our class colors. Green is a very noticeable color and we wanted to attract attention. Everybody seemed to see the green. A1 oui ' first meeting, the twenty-first of September, we selected these colors, elected our officers, and also organized for the coming fray with the Sophomores. Days of excitement followed, for old fa.shioned street fights were en- gaged in by the ancient rival classmen. For a few nights the townspeople thought that the Huns were let loose in Morgantown, such was the barbaric warfare waged between the Freshmen and Sophomores. Both sides claimed success and a team from each side was chosen to fight it out in a tug of war, on the footl)all field. Here the Sophomores succeeded in pulling our boys through the stream of watei ' , playing between the two teams. Freshman pep and class spirit prevailed in all the struggles. (Jur class is well I ' cpresented in college activities. In Athletics we have fui ' nished good material in football, baseball, basketball and track. In the Cadet Band four Corporals and one Sergeant are Freshmen. We are hoi)eful that our class will continue to be not only the largest cla.ss but the best all round class that ever cho.se green, as its Freshman color. —HISTORIAN, ' 21. w V u (§) T 1 ' ?

Those few YY words express the opinion of every follower of football at West Virginia Uuivei ' sity. The season was a success in every sense of the word. For several years West Virginia has been battling for a place in the sun. Now through the medium of the 1917 team she has gained that coveted place. That position has not been won however without a long, hard struggle and would have been well-night unattainable without the able direction and leadership of Coaches Mcln- tire and Tobin. Too much praise and credit can not be given the coaches for their wondei ' - ful work. From a squad composed almost en- tirely of ra - material they developed a wonder- ful smooth-running team, a team that won recog- nition thi ' oughout the East, a team that beat Navy and W. and J., a team unequalled in the annals of West Virginia University. West Virginia began the season greatly handi- capped by the loss of nine of her 1916 Varsity Letter men. ( f the 1916 linesmen only three remained and one of these, Hager, was lost due to a broken foot before the season began. Bailey and lee alone of the 1916 linesmen remained. Of the 1916 baclvfield Captain Hite and Cheno- weth had been lost, leaving however three able men in Rodgers, Lentz and King. These five men were the nucleus about which Mclntire and Tobin developed a team that ranked with the best in the country. Much can bo said of the team. The physical condition of the boys was good throughout the .sea.son, as a rule it was superior to that of the opposing team. The team ' s wonderful success may be attributed in part to its physical condi- tion. The boys are to be commended upon the way in which they denied themselves and sac- rificed for the welfare of the team. In view of the fact that there was no training table their voluntary adherence to a .simple diet was commendable and its result only short of marvelous. One very noticeable thing about the team ' s work was the fact that they seldom scored until the second half of the game. In oidy three out of ten games did West Virginia score in the first half and then she only scored 47 out of a total of 161 points. In the second half she scored 114 poiiits, 71 of which were made in the last quarter. The opening game of the .season was played with the University of Pittsbui ' gh at Jiloi ' gantown on September the twenty-ninth. Pitt, fresh from its training eamp, came to West Virginia confident of victory yet well knowing that it must fight and fight hard for every point gained. West Virginia fought as only Mountaineers can fight but weight and e xperienee were against them and the honors of the day went to Pitt, the game result- ing in a 14-9 score. The first half of the game was all Pitt ' s, West COACH McINTYRE Wl V f (§) T 1 OLA M Virginia being nnaljle to penetrate Pitt ' s heavj , powerful line, while Pitt was able to Ijreak through West Virginia ' s green, inexperienced line at will, her Ixicks rushing the ball foi- short but consistent gains. In the last half, however, Pitt ' s line weakened and West Virginia lighting harder and more determinably than before was able to score nine points. Although not an actual victory for West Vir ' ginia still it was a moral one as a West Virginia football team had scored on Pitt for the first time since 1904 . For Pitt the work of Gougler and McLaren featured. For West Virginia, Kodgers, Bailey, Lentz, Ice and King jilayed wonderful ball. King ' s long and accurate punting was a featui ' e of the game. On October the Sixth, the Old Gold and Blue team invaded the East jind returned victorious. In a hard gruelling struggle it had met and de- feated the Navy by a 7-0 score. For three (juar- ters the teams fouglit fiercely, neither side gain- ing a decided advantage until near the end of the third quarter when the pace began to tell on the Navy, then it was that We.st Virginia ' s wonderful physical condition became evident. At the beginning of the fourth quarter West Virginia received the ball on downs and after a steady mairh of 65 yards Harris, the fleet quar- terback, scored the only touchdown of the game. It was a bi-illiaut and well earned victory. Both the coaches and the men assert that the Navy was the best team they met during the entire season. West Virginia was obviously the better team, however, as shown by the fact that the Navy made only 10 first downs and many sub- stitutions while West Virginia made 12 fii-st downs and no substitutions. In defeating the Navy, West Virginia broke Gilmore Dobie ' s long string of consecutive victories, which extended over a period of twelve years. Due to this fact West Virginia was mentioned as a possible representative of Eastern footljall for the Fes- tival of Roses which is held on New Veai ' ' s Day at Pasidena, California. In the third game of the season West Vir- ginia met and defeated the famous Carlisle Indians by a 21-0 score. The first half of the game was marked by ]ioor playing and generalslup on the part of West Virginia, due to which fact the Mountaineers played a defensive game almost entirely. Against the Mountaineei ' defense the Indians ' light but fast and clever 1)aekfield was unable to make but two first downs. In the second half We.st Virginia played offensive ball but was unable to scoie until the last quarter when three touchdo ms were made in rapid succession. Herman, the speedy Indian halfback, was the star of the game. For West Virginia, Rodgers, Bailey and Mills played good games. Over-confident and opposed by an eleven that bitterly contested every inch of ground. West Vii ' ginia lost to Dai ' tmouth at Hanover by a 6-2 score. Three times West Virginia came within scoring distance but each time it lacked the punch neces.sary to carry the ball over the line. This lack of punch was due to a mid-season slump in the spirit and physical COA(.:H TOlilX w V u m OLA I [7 - W V u condition of the buys. Dartnioutli put up a wonderful defense and played exeellent ball throughout the entire game. The breaks of the game went against West Virginia, this fact coupled with the lack of punch gave the game to Dartmouth, who scored early in the second quarter. West Virginia got its two points when Bailey blocked a Dartmouth punt in the la.st quarter, Dartmouth recovering for a siifety. Rodgers as usual played an excellent game. Lentz played a brilliant game both on the offense and defense. In a steady down-pour of rain and on a mud-soaked field, the Moun- taineei-s overwhclnu-d Gettysburg by a (iO-O score. West Virginia relied chiefly on straight football and scored at will as Gettysburg, throughout the game showed little or no sti ' ength. P very man on the s(iuad was in the game at one time or another, this fact coupled with the condition of the lield prevented the score from being much larger than it was. During the last few minutes of play Muak Hager was sent into the game and played with his old time form and pep. Munk received a mighty ovation as he ran out upon the field. Playing an up- last half West Vir- hill game with the ginia completely out- score 7-0 against her . P played their oppon- at the end of the first K ' ' ' after a won- half. West Virginia Blb derful tight Rodgei ' s came back strong and HPIi P B went through the completely out-played B ' H ' ' ' ' ° ' ' the touch- Rutgers, ..scoring a K- k down that tied the touchdown in the B 4 score. It was a hard thii ' d quarter. Dur- H Lr- lL k tight throughout the ing the tirst half Rut- ft S fek . game, neither side gers gained time after IKa F gaining a decided ad- time through the f H r except very heart of West T ' ' i •- third quarter Virginia ' s line, yet when West Virginia were only able to MANAGER SHEUR clearly outplayed score once. In the Rutgers. Both teams had two chances to score and each failed to take advantage of but one of them. Rutgeis ' chances both came in the first quarter, but the Scarlet lost its first oj)poi ' tunity when West Virginia ' s defense tightened and held for downs on the 10 yard line. West Virginia ' s first opportunity came in the second quarter when it received the hall from kick-oft ' and after a steady march of 60 yards to Rutgers ' two yard line lo.st the l)all on downs. The spectacular playing of Rodgei-s was a brilliant feature of the game. He jilayed the greatest game of his career and his work w;is closely watched and commended ui)on by the big Eastern sport writers among whom was the far-famed Walter ( ' amp. King ' s punting and passing and Lentz ' s ! ' ,reat defensive work materially aided the Mountaineers. West Virginia met and defeated Virginia Polytechnical Institute at Huntington on November the Tenth by a 27-3 .score. West Virginia well- knowing her strength and confident of victory slept throughout the entire first half. This fact coupled with the determination and gameness with which Tech fought, prevented West Virginia from scoring in the first ([Uarter. The Mountaineers seemed amazed and baffled by the variety of p ' ay and speed uncorked by Tech, whose onh ' tally came in the second (|uarter when Peyton, upon his fourth attempt, kicked a field goal from the 35 yard line. West Virginia came back strong in the second half and II vV V O L A V u by sheer weight and phj-.sical endurance, coupled with powerful running on the part of Lentz and Rodgers was able to score four touchdowns. The stars of the game were Lentz and Rodgers for West Virginia, and Roden for Poly. Playing under ideal weather conditions and before a large and en- thusiastic crowd West V ' ii-ginia defeated Washington and Jefferson at Fairmont on November the Sever,teenth by a 7-0 score. It was a glorious and well-deserved victoi-y and came to West Virginia after a string of de- feats extending over a period of twenty-six years at the hands of Wash- ington-Jefferson. Both teams fought fiercely, neither showing a decided advantage, although West Virginia was possibly the stronger. Wash- Jeff ' s nmch touted line easily merited the praise and i)ul)licity given them, they did not however out-play the Mountaineer forwards, who played thi ' greatest game of the season. Mills and Hager plainly out-played Tre.ssel and Carroll, the Red and Black ' s far-famed ends, while Bailey pushed Guy to the limit of his endurance. The Mountaineer backfield was easily supei-ior to that of the Presidents, especially was this fact evident in run- ning with the ball. The Mountaiiicer backs were powerful and aggr-essive and hit the line with all the force they could muster, whci ' eas the wearers t)f the Red and Black .sought oiienings in the line and fell through them for short but effective gains. For We.st Vii-ginia the stars of the ganu , if any thei ' e were, were Rodgers, King and Jjcntz. Rodgers played a great of- fensive game while Lentz ' s defensive work was pre-eminent. King repeat- edly out-punted McCreight while his aliility at receiving passes was a deciding factor. The greatest surprise of the season came when Wesleyan defeated West Virginia at Clarksburg on November the Twenty-foui ' th by a 20-0 score. This game entirely upset the dope as We,st Virginia was ])icked as a sure winner. It can not be denied that West Virginia had the better team and that a combination of circumstances rather than the ability of Wesleyan led to her defeat. The Mountaineers had many excuses to offer for this defeat, prominent among which was the fact that they had just come from a gruelling game the week before with Wash-Jeff, thus their physical condition was below .standard while their self-confidence was above normal. Then, too, it seemed as though Wesleyan knew We.st Vir- ginia ' s signals and formations foi ' they wei ' e able to break up all plays. These facts coupled with lackadaisical playing on the part of West Virginia led to a victory for the Ministers. As a fitting climax to so successful and brilliant a season. West Vir- ginia gained an easy victory over North Carolina A. M. on Thanksgiving Daj ' . The 21-0 .scoi ' e testifies to the defects in West Virginia ' s game rather than to the strength of A. M. West V irginia had several ojjpor- tiinities to score which she did not take advantage of. At no point in the game did A. M. become dangerous, although once on an 82 yard run by Faucett she threatened to score. King proved to be the .star of the game. ii[ m r V u 201 f®] m N T OLA 1 w V u CAPTAIN RUSSELL BAILEY, ' 19, was the choice of three prominent sport writers for the 1917 Ail- American center. As captain and a leader Bailey has had few if any equals in the history of football at West Virginia. Rus was in the thickest of the fight at all times and by his own dash, spirit and pep inspired his men to greater things. At center Bailey played a clever game. On the offense he was fast and aggressive and passed the ball with rifle- like accuracy. On the defense his ability at break- ing up interference and tackling was preminent. He seems to have an uncanny ability at solving plays and formations and this coupled with the fact that he is a rover makes him invaluable to the team. CAPTAIN-ELECT ERRETT RODGERS, ' 19, was Walter Camp ' s choice for All-Amerlcan ful back. That statement in itself is enough of a write-up as it shows that Rog has reached the pinnacle of success in the football world. Much can be said of Rodgers and his work and yet there will still be something left unsaid. He is a clean, strong, heady player who plays a brilliant and consistent yet spectacular game. He has won an enviable repu- tation throughout the East as a wonderful open field runner, for once he gets the ball under his arm and skirts the end on a wide run it is well-nigh impossible to stop him. Much of the Mountaineer success is due to ' ' Rog and his ability to throw forward passes. With his rapid-fire talk he puts the snap into the backfield that otherwise would be lacking there. He is a great favorite among his team-mates and is sure to prove a successful and worthy captain of the 1918 team. 202 V u B w m m M u T OLA nr ,-  . ANDREW V. KING, ' 19, halfback, came to West Virginia from the Sunny Southland where he had made a name for himself as a player of great abil- ity. He is an adept at throwing and receiving for- ward passes and has, through this manner, made many touchdowns for the Old Gold and Blue. He excells at punting and running interference. Through- out the entire season he consistently outpunted his opponents, averaging a gain of from 10 to 1.5 yards on an exchange of punts. The longest punt of the season was in the Pitt game when Rip kicked the ball 70 yards in advance of the line of scrim- mage, thus making it possible for West Virginia to score her first two points. Rip is now in the ser- vice of Uncle Sam. i r J. HOWARD LENTZ, ' 20, halfback, was chosen by one sport writer for the All-American backfleld and received honorable mention by several others. Lentz came here last year and although he won his letters did not make a regular place on the Varsity. This year with Captain Hite in the service there was a bi.g hole in the backfield. Lentz was sent in to fill that hole and the manner in which he filled it is worthy of the highest praise. Beany can always be depended upon as he plays a steady, consistent game and puts up a hard fight. He is a hard, fierce and sure tackier and a wonderful follower of the ball through scrimmage. On the offense he exhibits a mighty rush as a line plunger. He is fast and hard to stop and can always be depended upon to carry the ball the necessary distance. Incidentally Beany put in more time than any other man on the team, being out of the game for only six minutes during the entire season. 203 w V u (§ (D O I A w V u CHARLES L. LEWIS, ' 20, quarterback, came to West Virginia from Charleston High. Last year he did not play Varsity ball due to the fact that there were more experienced men than he on the squad. This year, however, he broke down opposition and appeared during the latter part of the season in the Varsity backfield. Although not the best of generals he handled the team in a manner that won the ap- probation of the coaches. He is a clever speedy backfield man and with a little more experience at quarter will prove indispensable to the team. w V • ' Q : • (S PAUL E. HAGER, ' 19, end, is one of West Virginia ' s flfe £ m ■■ most valuable men. Due to a broken foot received -i V!!:. ■ H while in training camp Monk was unable to get ■ I into the game until the season was about half over. He excels at receiving forward passes, tackling and 1 breaking up interference. On one occasion during ■ the W. and J. game he spilled the interference and PH[ k i ■ also got the runner. Monk is imbued with that old ijm n Q ■ H spirit and pep which counts so much towards vic- Mw K ■ 1 tory and which acts as a stimulant and inspiration H H ■ 1 to his team-mates. fV Viy 1 1 i 204 w 1 (S) MM KtMStKKKKMW KKKFZWM ®l w W u FRED MILLS, ' 20, end, came to West Virginia from Keyser Prep where he had won for himself a name as a bacltfield man. Last year Ike was imfortun- ate in being among backtiekl men of greater weight and experience than he and so he spent most of the time on the bench. This year he was shifted to the end position where he soon proved his worth and versatility as a player. , In the space of one short season he rapidly developed into one of the most powerful ends in the East. He is especially good on defense where he is a sure hard tackier. He is fast and gets well down under punts. Ike is now in the service of his country. ■I I JOSEPH V. HARKICK, ' 21, tackle, came here from Indiana Normal as a linesman ol recognized power and ability. Joe more than lived up to our great ex- pectations, he surpassed them and in doing so proved himself one of the greatest linesmen that ever wore the Old Gold and IBue. He is in the game at all times and proves to be a bulwark on the line. He plays a hard, fast game and can always be de- pended upon to open a hole for the backfield men to pass through. .Toe is also a baseball pl ayer of merit and has quite a reputation as a pitcher and outfielder, Great things are expected of him next year. V U 2nn m N T I OLA W u FRANK ICE, ' 18, tackle, after three years of de- termined effort won for himself a regular place on the Varsity. For two years he remained on the Reserve squad but last year succeeded in getting in enough games to earn his letters. This year by hard and determined effort he brought to the surface his latent football ability and developed into a most dependable linesman. He is fast and aggressive and fills a big hole in the line. He is very successful in breaking through and blocking punts and it was directly due to this fact that West Virginia scored her touchdown in the Pitt game. Frank is now with the colors. RU3SEL D. MEREDITH, ' 21, guard, entered the University from Fairmont High where he had had a successful career in football. Rus was a big husky lad, who, despite his inexperience quickly developed into a sturdy aggressive linesman and proved to be the proverbial tower of strength on the defense. Although playing a position ordinarily unnoticed in the grandstand, Rus filled it so well that he never failed to gain favorable comment from the spectators. With a year ' s college experi- ence behind him and three years more in front of him Meredith ' s prospects for the future are bright indeed. V 206 m M N T I OLA 111 CAPTAIN CLAY B. HITE, ' 18, halfback, at the end of the 1916 season, was chosen captain of the 1917 football team. When the United States declared war Clay went to the First Oflicers Training Samp where he received a commission as lieutenant. Being in the service he was unable to return and lead the 1917 team to victory so Bailey was elected to captain the team in his stead. Clay or Mud as his friends, the entire student body, called him. came to West Virginia from Huntington High where he had made a reputation for himself as a backfield man of vvondei-ful possibilities. His work here was always worthy of the highest praise, lie proved to be a good tackier and a fleet halfback with a wonderful ability at carrying the ball through a broken field. He was a hard worker and a clean, brainy player and because he was so sincere in his work, so modest in his achievements and so worthy of his glory he became a great favor- ite. One West Virginia football enthusiastic said of Clay, He was a true clean sportsman and one of the greatest halfbacks that ever fought for the Old Gold and Blue. That statement voices the opinion of every Mountaineer. Mud was also an excellent basketball player and captained the 1916 team. Clay will soon be fighting the greatest fight of all, the battle for democracy, and in this fight we wholeheartedly wish him the same success and the same glory that he so justly achieved on the gridiron. w V u JOHN B. McCUE , ' 21, guard, came to West Virginia greatly handicapped by lack of experience and knowledge of the game. His sterling worth was soon uncovered and he was placed in the line to fill a hole. The manner in which he filled that hole bespeaks of his ability as a linesman of merit. John is a quiet fellow and a hard conscientious worker who puts his whole soul into his work. He exhibits great aptitude at learning the game and with an- other year ' s experience will develop into a most re- liable linesman. f . w V u m 207 OLA 1 ' w KJ Mr ¥ u m N T OLA !®1 W V u I) M m OLA m !fleview of tl)e 1918 asKetball Season w V u The 1918 basketball season was a decided failure. Speak of it and you touch a sore spot in the heart of every student and follower of the Old Gold and Blue. The less said about it. the better. Of seventeen games played only four were returned victories and they were all gained over schools of medicore ability and of less athletic repu- tation than West Virginia. What was the cause of such a disastrous sea- son would be hard to s;iv or to detormiiie. Surely the blame can ' t be placed on the war or on the lack of interest on the part of the stu- dent body f V neither of these in any way af- fected ' it. When the call for candidates was issued many veteran basket- ball m c n re- sponded. Among them were Rod- gers, Latterner, Swiger, Aiken and Sonimers of last year ' s Vars- ity squad; Daw- son , Whet sell, C i; t r i g h t and Weimer, of the crack 1917 Davis- Klkins team, and Hawkins of Fair- mont High. All of these men were players of known aliility and cap- a 1) 1 e of be ing molded into one of the cleverest t e a m s i n the country, yet the opportunity for doing so w a s wasted and in- stead of a win- ning team there appeared a team of only ordinary ability composed, however, of men of gi-eat pei ' sonal ability. Early in De- cember the Ath- t ' OACH MULLENEIX letic Board selected Coach iMullencix as basketball mentor for the 1918 season. Their selection was logical and wise and at that time was re- ceived with approval by both the students and the alumni. Mulleneix had been a .student at West Virginia and while here had proven himself a playei ' of ability and a leader of men. After leaving West Virginia he became coach at Davis-Elkins where in 1916 and 1917 he turned out one of the fastest and cleverest teams in the state. Hence Mulleneix easily merited the trust and confidence placed in him by the .students and the Athletic Board. Perhaps, as is x;sual!y the case, too much was expected of Mully or perhaps his system of coaching was not the best but. be that as it may, he was capable of handling the men. He had proved that at Davis-Elkins. Ri;t now, with four members of his former winning team, he lo.st and lost consistently too. He never succeeded in finding a winning combination although he had several that were partially successful. His greatest trou- ble and bugbear was his inability to find or develop a good center. The reason for his failure would be hard to state. Perhaps the cards were running against him. Anyhow we know that Mulleneix did his best and more can be expected of no man. i1 N T 1 OLA m }wmn m N -T 1 OLA M At times throughout tlie season the Mountaineers showed a dash of form and spirit and at such times played a bang-up game. In several games they put up an excellent fight only to be beaten in the last few minutes of pla.y by a very narrow margin. On March the Ninth the Old Gold and Blue met defeat at the hands of Washington-Jefferson but they went down to defeat only after a hard thrilling fight in which they played the best game of the entire season. West Virginia played her best games against Marietta, Washington- Jefferson, Penn State, Allegheny and Syra- cuse but all of them were defeats though none by decisive scores. Victories were gained over Fairmont Normal, Salem and Davis-Elkins. u MANAGER FURBEE N T 1 OLA I® :ae5ult5 of tl)e 1918 rSasKetball Season AT HOME West West West West West West West West West West West West West West West West West Virginia 41 Virginia 38 Virginia 24 Virginia 21 Virginia 66 Virginia 26 Virginia 26 Salem College 10 Fairmont Normal 23 University of Pittsburgh 36 Marietta College 32 Davis-Elkins College 11 Penn State 35 Washington Jefferson 35 ABROAD Virginia 20 Virginia 9 Virginia 25 Virginia 20 Virginia 18 Virginia 10 Virginia 23 Virginia 36 Virginia 16 Virginia 29 University of Pittsburgh 30 Washington Jefferson 33.

Of the sixteen games plaj ed ten were won and six lost, victories going to Rutgers, Penn State, University of Pitts- burgh and Wesleyan. Twelve of the games were played at home of which number eight were returned victories for the Old Gold and Blue. Four games were played abroad and of this number two were victories. A much larger schedule had been arranged but several games were unable to be played due to rain, Jupiter Pluvius being our strongest adversary. The season ' s schedule was a strong one comprising such teams a.s University of Pittsburgh, Penn State, Marshall, Rutgers and Pittsburgh t ' ollegians. The one dark spot on the season ' s record was the loss of the state championship to Wes- leyan. During the seasons of lOlf) and 1916 the contention for this honor had been West Vir- ginia and Marshall but last year Wesleyan proved too strong for the Varsity and, in two closely contested games, defeated it. This gave to Wesleyan the state championship as the Var- sity had in turn, beaten Marshall two games. West Virginia has now severed all athletic con- nections with Wesleyan and as a result the state championship may have to be determined this year by means of the dope. The Varsity ' s brilliant and spectacular vic- tory over Penn State was easily the greatest game of the season. Some old fans declare it to be the greatest game ever played on the home lot. Pre dous to this game the Varsity had been play- ing indifferent ball and this day was no exception. For five innings neither side scored. Then in the sixth State on three hits, a walk and an error scored two runs. For eight innings the Var.sity was absolutely at Gramley ' s mercy, he having allowed but one hit. Then in the la.st of the ninth with two men on ba.ses, two out and two strikes on him. Garden, whose error in the sixth had figured largely in State ' s runs, drove a clean single to center, scoring the two base runner.s. The bleachers were in an uproa r. In the tenth Penn State drove in another run but West Virginia again tied the score and the crowd went into paroxysms of joy. State failing to score in the eleventh, West Virginia on the famous squeeze play made a tally thus winning the game. For several minutes bedlam reigned supreme. The Varsity-Alumni game, resulting in a 2-1 victory for the former, was the most interesting game of the sea.son. All the runs were made in the first inning. Considei ' ing the fact that the Alumni had had no practise they played excellent ball. The game was virtually a victory for the Alumni. Kenna, for the Alumni, pitched wonderfid ball, allowing but few hits and posse.ssing good control. The Alumni line-up included such old stars as Lefty Core, Kemper Shelton, the present Var.sity coach. Jack Kenna, Mike Leatherwood, Bill Lively, Pat Simon and Jim Gronniger. Joe McDermott acted as coach and manager while Paul McKeel appeared as 215 W V U m N T OLA w V u trainer. Even Coach Charlie Hiekman deserted his phiee on the Varsity bench and appeared in the outfield for the Old Ijoys. Although some of the 1917 team played better ball than others yet all deserve a brief word of comment. Fidler, at the back-stop position, played his usual excellent game. His fielding was faultless and his throwing swift and sure. Madeira, although not the best that could be hoped for, held down the first sack in fair shape. Carden, a freshman, filled Mike Leather- wood ' s old position at second and filled it well, too. Although uncertain at the bat he was a steady, sure fielder and proved a valuable a.sset to the team. Rodgers played the shortstop position in true big league style. His throwing was snappy and accurate and his batting average high. Captain Flinn, playing his usual position at third, had a very successful season. Micky is a clean fielder and a heavy hitter, about half of his hits being for extra bases. The composition of the outfield was unstable, being changed from time to time. At no time did it appear with more than medicore strength, either in the field or at the bat. The principal out- fielders were Ayers, Stoops, Stone, Nefflin, Huffman and Latterner. June ' s work on the mound was excellent. Throughout the season he maintained a good fielding and batting average. June is captain of the 1918 team. Latterner, although pitching good ball, apparently i)layed out of luck. Jack is an excellent utility man and was used in outfield where he is fast and a good fielder. A brief glance at the 1918 team and schedule shows that West Vir- ginia has rosy prospects of another successful .season. About June, Lat- terner, Flinn, Rodgers and Armstrong, the only I ' emaining Varsity men, Coach Shclton has built a strong, clever team. So far they have played eleven games, winning from Marshall, Syracuse, Colgate, Army, Dartmouth and Worcester Tech, and losing to Connecticut We.sleyan, Fordham, The Usaacs and Navy. w V Ul ■ ■  1 ® 16 1 (§) ■■ ■■■ ■■■■■■■li SH 217 M N T OLA I Results of I9l7 l aseball Season AT HOME w V u r West Virginia 1 West Virginia 6 West Virginia 7 West Virginia 2 West Virginia 8 West Virginia 2 West Virginia 4 West Virginia 2 West Virginia 4 West Virginia 10 West Virginia West Virginia 2 ilutgers 4 Bethany Bethany 2 Pittsburgh Independents Pittsburgh Independents 3 University of Pittsburgh 9 Marshall College 3 Penn State 8 Penn State 3 Pittsburgh Collegians 6 Wesleyan 2 Alumni - 1 ABROAD West Virginia 1 West Virginia 12 West Virginia 3 West Virginia University of Pittsburgh 6 Penn State 11 Marshall 1 Wesleyan 3 West Virginia..

' hen there is so much talk of man-power winning the war, when war experts are comparing the size of the navies of the various nations in the war, and when the war department is trying to cal- culate how many aeroplanes wc will need tn win the war. remember OUR DOLLARS MUST WORK AT HOME An idle citizen in this period of our country ' s danger is a rough- lock, hindering the progress of the war just so much, when he ought to be helping win it. There must be no slacker men and there must be no slacker dollars. Every dollar and dime must be marshalled in this great conflict, helping to keep intact so far as possible, the economic and industrial life of the nation. There is no use to win at the front and lose at home. Russia did that. Germanj ' s strength today lies in the fact that her civilian population back home are all working and making their dollars work. The Allies must win the war by outworking the Germans as well as by outfighting them. DON ' T WASTE DON ' T HOARD Don ' t spend your money foolishly just to keep it in circulation Don ' t buy things you don ' t need just because you have the money. BuN ' Liberty Loan lionds, Imv ' ar Savings Stamps, buy Thrift Stamps. Keep your nionev working. Don ' t hide it, put it in the bank and let it help win the war. In a savings account it will earn interest for you, and helj) keep business going. And we must keep business going. Every savings account started during this war is a badge of dis- tinction, and ever - dollar put into a savings account is on the roll of honor. Let there be no slacker dollars. Make every dollar as well as every citizen a patriot, and we will win the war. w V u The National Bank of Fairniont FAIRMONT, W.

Mr. Riggs has carefully prepared what we choose to call The War Depirtment. ' We want you to know where the boys are and what they are doing. Our old friend Tom Moore, turned tn to us a splendid lot of drawings. We thank him. Professor Madison Stathers is our ofHc-al critic. We owe our gratitude to him for his efficient and courteous aid. To Mrs. Kessel and the Monticola Staff I cannot give too much praise. Mrs. Kessel has assisted us in many ways and added much to the enjoyment of the work. The members of the Staff have worked long and well. The Junior class owes much to these students for their conscientious work. It has been a ideasant duty for us to do our bit in publishing the Monticola for the Class of ' 19. If it meets with your approval we are glad. Very Sincerely, CHARLES ROYALL KESSELL, Editor-in-Chief. W V m 2S8 M T 1 OLA M As business manager of the rn.legf annual for this year, I found many new difhculties confronting our enterprise. In a closing note of this booi;, there; ore, it is only due the students and faculty, that thanks be extended to them ' for the help they have given in any man ' ier whatsoever. The Mnrgantown Printint; and Binding Company have at all times rendered valuable aid and given suggestions, which have gone far to ailvance the success of this book. The Northern Engraving Company of Canton, Ohio, have been exceedingly prompt in preparation oc engravings, and their co-opera- tion has been helpful in the extreme. Mr. L. E. Friend has taken care of the photographic work in a faithful manner. The large increase of photographs necessary for the work this year made his task one of difficult nature, but it was done satisfactory, and we are grateful to him for his assistance. We appreciate laghlj the interest of the advertisers, who have contracted for space iu the business columns, and the students should patronize generously those who helped to make this student enter- prise a success. If this Monticola appea ' s to you, and records incidents that were most pleasing to you in your school year, then join with us in being glad to serve West Virginia. GEORGE T. McCOY.
