It hardly seems possible that next fall there will be a new group of boys on cam- pus who won't be summoned at some time or other to meet with Herr Kitz under the large illuminated globe. A tough teacher and a good friend, he has helped to make Reserve a finer school. We thank him for what he has given, congratulate him for his achievements and successes, and extend to him our most sincere good wishes for happiness in the years ahead.

dawns, and with it comes a renewed effort to uphold the tradi- tions of the past and build an even stronger school in the future. More impressive than the row of handsome buildings, the stately trees, or the acres of lawns and fields is this spirit of energy and intellectual activity, our legacy from David Hudson and the founding fathers. The desire on the part of early Ohio pion- eers to establish an institution of higher learn- ing was realized in part on April 26, 1826, when the corner stone of Middle College was laid on the site now occupied by Seymour Hall. Until 1882 Western Reserve College contin- ued to grow and expand on the Hudson cam- pus. At that time the directors decided to change the location to Cleveland because of attractive offers of lands and money. Lean years forced the school to close near the turh of the century, but renewed interest and the generosity of James XV. Ellsworth added another chapter to the eventful history. The Academy was re-opened in 1916. Reserve today is more than a college pre- paratory school for boys. One of the goals of the HARDSCRABBLE staff is to record some of the intangible quantities that form the real character of the school, the work, the fun, the excitement, the friendships, the disappoint- ments, and the problems.
