Poem We are come to the parting of the ways; For each a road goes out. Its goal unguessed, its length untried. And yet we shall not doubt. We take from Westtown dauntless faith To put all fear to rout. Courage and strength and youth we take, Westtown, leaving thee; Foundation thou hast given us, On which our lives shall be Budded with visions God-given to youth; We'll fail neither them nor thee. Oh, it is not where that matters so much. The high road or the low; But only that we walk it well. Head high, and heart aglow; That greatly thinking, we greatly live. Wherever our road may go. Song As the portals of life are opening, And the time draws near when we leave thee. From our hearts springs this vow to be faithful, And to truly serve thy memory. We love thee, O our Alma Mater, Thy name we ll fill with fair renown. And '25 will ever be True and loyal to thee, Westtown! In the tasks of life we must enter, In the toils and wearisome fight, May thy message and spirit be with us, Ever teaching, guiding us aright. May we bear the burdens unflinching. And though weary, never give in; May we put heart and soul in life's contest. And for thee, snuggle onward and win. 10 Honorary Member ALBERT L.

(S); French Club (S); Year Book Board (S), Business Manager; Union (1), (S); Triangle (1), (S); President of Class (S). Witness Soup of the commanding personality and marked ability. His egotistical characteristics arc counterbalanced by his love of seeing a job done well, and his putting every effort into it. We don't mind his sarcasm, either, for we know he is just kidding us. Bill plays tennis once in a while, and once we caught him trying to skate. We leave the reader to read between the above lines, and hope he will join with us in wishing our president a very successful future. Characteristic: Crown. Persuasion tips his tongue whene'er he speaks. Haverford Secretary MARY PIM LANE 30 Adriance Ave. Poughkeepsie, N. Y. Entered Fall 1924 Treasure Seekers; Music Club; Natural History Committee; Art Club; Comitia; Home Economics; Secretary of Class; Union; Proctor Com- mittee; Latin Club; Girls' Choir. Our “New Yoiker” writes the minutes and supplies the soda mints. No feed is complete without Shrimp and her mints, which pop up like “Wrig- leys.” Shrimp is a good mixer, a good secretary, and a good sympathizer. When we are in sorrow, she helps us out by remarking, “That's Tough,” and we almost have to agree with her, fer Shrimp is very convincing. We hope she wishes she had been with us longer, for then we would know it was mutual. Characteristic: Map of New York. That's tough. Mt. Holyoke 12 “Shrimp” Class Officers “Lolly V ice'President WILMER EDWARDS KENWORTHY 1338 Monroe St. Washington, D. C. Entered Fall 192a Radio (2), (1). Secretary (1); Brightonians (2); Latin Club (2); Union (1), (S'), President (S); Parliamentary (S); Young Friends' Committee (S); Chair- man First Day Evening Collections (S); Group Leader (S); Member of Ex- ecutive (S), Chairman (S); Vice President of Class (S); Year Book Board (S), Circulation Manager; Assistant Manager of Baseball (1), Manager (S); Junior Varsity Soccer Team (S), Insignia (S); Elocutionary Contest, Third Place (S); Reader Commencement Essay (S); Class Song Committee (1) (S). Chairman (1); Motto, Mascot and Flower Committee (S); Class Day Com- mittee (1); Relay Team (S). The winsome smile of this heart-breaker has gradually earned him the name of “Lollypop which has been shortened to Lolly. He's as kind-hearted as he is good looking, and vice-versa. If he is not enrapturing you with his tenor voice, he's introducing a First Day evening speaker; or, better still, he’s circulating this publication. He says he's going to be a bachelor, but that secret has never reached the other side of the house. Au revotr, Lolly, and bona fortuna. Characteristic: Mushroom. All the world loves a lover. Earlham T reasurer ESTHER ALSOP CARTER The Knoll Lansdowne, Pa. Entered Fall 1922 Athenians (2); Union (1), (S); French Club (1). (S); Comitia (S); Latin Club (2), (1), (S), Secretary (S);Numerals, Swimming (2), Varsity “W” (1); Class Hockey Team (2), (1), (S), Varsity Hockey Team (S), Numerals (1), Insignia (S); Treasure Seekers (1), (S); Assistant Manager of Tennis (1). Manager (S); Class Day Committee (1); Monitor 7:15 Collection (2); Elocu- tion Finals (S); Treasurer of Class (S); Natural History Committee (S); Delta (1), (S). Carter is about as much at home under water as on top, and even more at home in bed than out. Once in a while she plays such little tricks on us as removing door-knobs in the wee small hours of the night, but as long as she doesn't do worse than that, we'll let her have her fun. As for Algebra and Plane, you'd think she really enjoyed them. Her ability doesn't stop there, though; just see how fine the tennis courts are! Characteristic: Alarm Clock. Who cun ivrestle against sleep? Mt. Holyoke 13 “Carter LYDIA LOUISE ALLEN 231 Poplar Avc. Woodbury, N. J. Entered Fall 1924 Union; Comitia; Latin Club; French Club. Louise reads Virgil with as much volubility as we might expect from an oracle of Apollo. Doc will not be hurried, and allows no one to ruffle her imperturbable disposition; we are told that she is capable of quelling even a Boh shevik uprising with one of her frigid glances backed by a dignified reserve. Her ambition leads her on to a medical career, and if she puts as much real energy into that as she has displayed during her short visit with us, we know she will succeed. Characteristic: 19th Amendment. Mistress of herself, though China fall. Wellesley Louise Ed' EDWARD FRENCH BAILEY Tacoma, Ohio Entered Fall 1924 Union; Rustic, Secretary; Class Song Committee. If you catch a glimpse of a woodsman Cutting down a tree. Glance a little closer. And then perhaps you'll see that it is Ed working in the arboretum, laying low the mighty oaks. Ed is a member of the Skeptics' Society, and then, too, he often plays office boy and answers the telephone in the business office. Characteristic: Telephone. Little strokes fell big oaljs. Ohio State ALBERTA MAE BANGHAM Orchard Avc. Lebanon, Ohio Entered Fall 1924 Comitia; Union; Music Club, Secretary; Treasure Seekers; Girls Choir. When you have a craving for music, it isn’t necessary to trouble yourself with the vie, but only to go sec Bert. You can't help forgetting all your troubles when she sings, or plays the violin; in fact she can aid at most any' thing. She even made a success with mayonnaise dressing when suddenly called on to make some. We are glad she was given the inspiration to come east for a year, and we only wish she had joined us sooner. Characteristic: Fiddlestick. Music is well said to be the speech of angels. Ohio Wesleyan “Bert 14 “Lily ALFRED CHAPMAN BURTON 294 West Main St. Moorestown.N. J. Entered Fall 1923 Radio (1). (S), Vice President (S); Rustic (1), (S); Union (S). Parliamentary (S); Junior Varsity Soccer Team (S), Class Soccer Team (S), Insignia (S); Varsity Basketball Team (S), Varsity W , Class Team (S); Assistant Man ager of Baseball (S). When one sees Lily's six feet two blocking up the soccer goal, his en- thusiasm for a charge rapidly lessens, and Lily masters the ball. His delicate blush reminded us of a rose, so we called him Lily, or maybe it was because he used to be a milkmaid. If you see a grape fruit rind sailing down the hall, and glance in the direction from which it came, lo and behold, there is Lily reading “College Humor.” Characteristic: Flower Pot. The man that blushes is not quite a brute. Drcxcl “Wee' WILLIAM ALFORD BREEDLOVE 1223 Euclid St., N.W. Washington, D. C. Entered Fall 1919 Ataraxa (3); Brightonians (2); Parliamentary (S); Union (S); French Club (S). Wee certainly does love to play. At what? Oh, anything at all, just so he has a good time. Sometimes he is sad; maybe he misses his brother, or maybe he is just going to French class. He is wielding a mighty tennis racquet this Spring; and Ye Gods, how he could argue in Parliamentary. Characteristic: Goat (Lafollette). Men are but children of a greater growth. George Washington LOUIS SLOAN BRINGHURST Felton, Delaware Entered Fall 1921 Brightonians (2); Union (1), (S); Radio (2), (1). Treasurer (1); Rustic (1). (S). Treasurer, Vice President (1), President (S); Parliamentary (1), (S), Vice Speaker (S), Speaker (S); Basketball. Junior Varsity Team. Insignia (S); Baseball. Numerals (1). Varsity Team (S), Varsity W (S); Young Friends' Committee (S); Advisory Board (1); Motto, Mascot, Flower Committee (S); Assistant Treasurer Athletic Association (1), Treasurer (S); Member of Executive (1), (S); Assistant Manager of Soccer (1), Manager (1), Junior Varsity Team (1), Numerals (1), Varsity Team (S), Varsity “W” (S); Class Soccer Team. My. aren't these heart-breakers numerous. You know, Lou has the most fun when he's playing tricks on some one. especially his wife. Lou doesn't mind walking around the edge of the roof, either; he knows he couldn’t go clear through the ground if he fell. The most credit is due to him, tho, for keeping the A. A. money straight, and cutting out our varsities. And generous? Well—it's a toss up between him and Lolly. Characteristic: Clown. Beware the fury of a patient man. 5 “Lou' Swarthmore “Art ARTHUR HOWLAND BRINTON 128 S. High St. West Chester, Pa. Entered Fall 1923 Vice President of Class (1); Class Song Committee (1); Union (1). (S), Vice President (S); Parliamentary (S); Year Book Board (S), Editor in Chief (S); Brown and White Board (S); Triangle (S). No one really needs an introduction to Shiek, whose hand rules these pages. Shiek always docs accomplish everything he starts out to do, and he does it carefully, neatly, and thoroughly. He also possesses that rare quality of thinking before he speaks. When the melodious notes of a “sweet potato or a mouth organ drift toward you, you may know that Shiek is soothing many savage breasts with his musical charms. Characteristic: Mouth Organ. Few things are impossible to diligence and slpll. Sam SAMUEL THATCHER BRINTON 213 Euclid Ave. Haddonpield, N. J. Entered Fall 1920 Brightonians (3), (2); Radio (3). (2). (1), (S), Secretary (S); Second Rank Skating (1). Numerals (1); Union (S); Parliamentary (S); Class Day Com mittee (1); Class Track Team (4), (3). If you hear a pair of bones rattling, you will know it is Sam; or if you get hit on the head with a golf ball, you may know that he is somewhere about. Sam is always happy and in good humor when we can disengage him from his work long enough to talk to him. Have you noticed that stamp collectors arc always good in math? Sam is a physics expert. Characteristic: Pair of bones. Right is right, because to follow right were wis.lom in the scorn of consequence. Havcrford ALICE DEBORAH BROWN 328 Franklin Ave. Cheltenham, Pa. Entered Fall 1919 Dress Committee (4); Monitor 7:15 Collection (4); Proctor 7:15 Cel lection (3); Athenians (3), (2). Secretary (2), Curator (2); Delta (2); (1), (S); Second Hockey Team (2), Varsity Hockey Team (1), (S), Insignia (1), Varsity ‘“W (S); Latin Club (2), (1). fS), Quaestor (1); Class Hockey Team (3). (2), (1). fS); Union (i). (S); Natural History Committee (S), Secretary (S); Comitia (1), (S), Clerk (1); French Club (2), (1), (S), President (S); Art Club (S); Class Day Committee (i); Class Historian (S); Treasure Seekers (1), (S); Chairman Class Song Committee (S); Brown and White Board (1), (S); Girls' Editor (S); President Athletic Association (S); Northfield Leader (S); Cum Laude (S); Music Club (5); First Rank Skating (S), Numerals (2),! Varsity “W (S); Reader Commencement Essay. Had we twice as much room, we could not say all about Brownie that we would like to. She is the mainstay of the girls' side in athletics, lessons, literary accomplishments, and political prowess. She is exceptionally well skilled in the arts of arguing, skating, paddling, and drinking tea. As one of our first members, she probably knows all the ins and outs of her class mates, and we hope she regards them with the same spirit of good fellowship as they do her. Enfin. “Dux femxna est. Characteristic: Tea Cup. Hear thou. Great Brownie whom three realms obey, doth sometimes counsel take—and sometimes tea. Bryn Mawr 16 Brownie” “Emma EMMA PERRY BROWN Eastbourne Terrace Moorestown, N. J. Entered Fall 1922 Latin Club (2), (1), (S). Fourth Rank Skating (2); Proctor 7:15 Collection (1); French Club (1), (S), Secretary (S); Comitia (S), Treasurer (S); Union (1 , (S); Art Club (S); Home Economics (S); Class Hockey Team (S); Athene ians (2); Gym Squad Leader (2), (1). Emma has never told us whether she really likes tea or not. Maybe tea is supposed to be soporific, but we find that her daily cup (maybe two on special occasions) only serves to render her ways more lively and her smiles more ready. She is one of the industrious members of “The Senior Parlor Latin Club, which, by the way, must not be confused with “The Latin Club. Emma will always tackle any job that ccmes her way, unless she is required to play with worms or snakes. Characteristic: Bantam Hen. A good boof( is the best of friends, the same today and forever. Mt. Holyoke DAVID ALSOP CARTER The Knoll Lansdowne, Pa. Entered Fall 1922 Brightomans (2); Union (S); Natural History Committee (S), Junior Var- sity Soccer Team (S), Insignia (S); Swimming Team (S), Class Tean) (1), (S); Tennis Team (1), (S), Varsity “W (1), (S), Captain (S); Second Rank Skating (1), Numerals (1). Dave has seen one tennis team come thru a successful season and is now captaining this, year's in the same path. The swimming team claimed him as one of its bulwarks this year, tpo. and it is also possible to see his sylphdike form flitting about the track. Dave is one of the few Seniors who had nerve enough to tackle German, and we admire him for his courage. Characteristic: Cereal Dish. My appetite comes to me while eating. Mt. Alto MABEL LEORA CHAPPELL Tyner, N. C. Entered Fall 1923 Athenians (2); Comitia (S); Union (S). We don't very often hear Mabel until some one asks, “Has thee got all thy lessons done? and then we know that she, at least, has hers finished. If you can't find Mabel, you'll know she's studying, for she is working hard this year. We didn't know we were able to claim her as a member of our class until we found that she was capable of doing two years' work in one. Characteristic: Lesson books. Silence gives consent. E. Carolina Friends' College 17 CARROLL BUNTING CHIPLEY Linn St. Bklleponte, Pa. Entered Fall 1923 Union (1), (S); Latin Club (1); French Club (1). (S); Comitia (S); Art Club (S); Brown and White Board (S); Year Book Board (S). Buried beneath the pages of' some forgotten lore—by a slow process of excavation we finally resurrect Carroll, and in answer to our query, we find that she really did get an “A” in English this time. She is blessed with the power of concentration, and equally the ability to write, an accomplishment envied by all of us, and some of the boys. Even as we write, she is probably penning some prodigious lines for this book. Characteristic: Encyclopedia. And torture one poor word ten thousand ways. “Polly MARY BALDWIN CONARI) The Knoll Lansdowne, Pa. Entered Fall 1922 Athenians (2), Secretary (2); Monitor 7:15 Collection (2); Assistant Hockey Manager (2); Gym Squad Leader (2); Proctor 7:15 Collection (1); Student Council (1), (S). President Student Body (S); Comitia (1), (S); Union (1), (S); French Club (1), (S); Latin Club (1), (S); Second Hockey Team (1). (S); Proctor Committee (1); Young Friends’ Committee (1), (S); Religious Life Committee (1), (S); Delta (1), (S); Cum Laude (S); Northfield Leader (S); Secretary of Athletic Association (1); Brown and White Baird (1), (S); Characteristic Committee (S). There isn’t much Polly can’t do. Between frequent explosions of laughter she may be seen with stern brow and commanding countenance haranguing the student body or signing up as a member of Cum Laude. Then, too, she furnishes amusement for the Algebra class, not always knowing the subject under discussion when called upon. Between the cut-ups of herself and her wife, her room invariably gets a call down on the average of once a day. Characteristic: Funny Paper. Laugh at your friends, and if your friends get sore, So much the better, you may laugh the more. Mt. Holyoke FRANCES GARRETT COPE Media, Pa. Entered Fall 1922 Athenians (2); Proctor 7:15 Collection (2); Gym Squad Leader (2); Proctor Committee (1); Northfield Leader (S); Class Secretary (1); Basket- ball Team (1), (S). Insignia (1). Varsity “W (S); Hockey Team (1), (S), Insignia (1), (S), Captain (S); Comitia (1), (S), Treasurer (1); Union (1), (S); Delta (1), (S); Cum Laude (S); Brown and White Board (S); Mantle of Dignity (S). That halo of hair and perfect profile remind one at once of an angel, but far be it from “Garrett to be angelic. She has lots of pleasing little tricks, ranging from falling in streams to sketching portraits and standing on her head. We won’t dispute her title to the Mantle of Dignity,” but only men- tion it in passing. Having no regard for the feelings of her mortal companions, she continually gets all “A’s” and as a finishing touch and crowning victory, she steps into the Cum Laude. Characteristic: Quaker Bonnet. A daughter of the gods, divinely tail and most divinely fair. Mt. Holyoke “Garrett” 18 “Dot i� DOROTHY ELLEN CRAWFORD 67 Price St. Lansdowne, Pa. Entered Fall 191a Athenians (2); President (2); Gym Squad Leader (2); Monitor 7:15 Col- lection (2), (1); Treasure Seekers (2). (1); Class Hockey Team (2), (1), (S); Comitia (1), (S), Speaker (S); Union (S); Varsity Hockey Team (S), Insignia (S). Manager (S); Characteristic Committee (S); Northfield Leader (S). “Ha! Ha!” and there goes a credit off for Dot. But she isn’t laughing all the time, as the Tea Room and Hockey schedule will show plenty of hard work. As for poor Joan of Arc burning at the “steak,” she can tell you all about it. Even a broken ankle can’t keep her down, and we know her pep will never give out. She enlivens any part of the school or campus where she happens to be, filling us with jokes and nonsensical absurdities which we are always ready to accept. Characteristic: Magnet. I love fools' experiments; I am always making them. Pierce Business College “Walt WALTER EVANS DARNELL 23 Prospect Ave. Moorestown, N. J. Entered Fall 1922 Brightonians (2); Radio (2), (1), (S), Secretary (1), President (S); Latin Club (2), (1), Quaestor (1); Union (1), (S), President (S); Triangle (S); Peace Essay, First Prize (S); Characteristic Committee (S); Parliamentary (S), Clerk. Pity poor Walt. He's had seven Plane Geometry exams so far, and only has gotten 100 in six of them. He carries four mathematics, and always counts on them for A’s; usually he gets them. You can almost always find Walt in Colonel’s room, either listening to the radio or fixing it. Walt’s going to play baseball this spring and show us that he can cover short-stop as well as run the Radio Club or preside over Union. We have also made him serve such lowly positions as clerk of Parliamentary, but Walt’s not proud. Characteristic: Log Book. It is only the ignorant who despise education. Cornell CAROLYN VIRGINIA DeCOU 3 West Maple Ave. Moorestown, N. J. Entered Fall 1922 Athenians (2); Latin Club (2), (1); Comitia (1), (S), Clerk (S); Union (1), (S); Pennant Committee (1); Monitor 7:15 Collection (1); Gym Squad Leader (1), (S); Art Club (S), Secretary (S); Young Friends' Committee (S); Year Book Board, Art Editor (S); Student Council Member (S); Vice President Athletic Association (S). Carol has two favorite pastimes: one is disturbing classes by marching with a military tread overhead, and the other is drawing; for Carol is an artist of repute, bearing the title of “Art Editor. An honor student who is both happy-go-lucky and full of pep is hard to find; Carol adds to this still another admirable quality; she tells you frankly what her mind is. Characteristic: Halter. A short saying oft contains much wisdom. Penn. State 19 ‘Carol” “Clara CLARA ROSELLA DEWEES Route 4 West Chester, Pa. Entered Fall 1920 Home Economics (1). (S); Union (S); Comitia (S); Art Club (S); Class Day Committee (1); Year Book Board (S), Art Editor; Class Hockey Team (S). Clara must certainly have joined the U. S. postal service corps, for dees she not present us with our mail each day? She dees not advertise the fact that she is an excellent artist, neither does she care much about other people's business. Her art work may be seen gracing these pages, and she may often be seen accomplishing those little tasks which we so thoughtlessly forget. Characteristic: Paint Brush. How doth the little busy bee— School of Industrial Arts “Disease' THOMAS ARTHUR DEWEES Route 4 Wcst Chester. Pa. Entered Fall 1919 Rustic (1), (S), Chairman Business Committee; Union (S). Here is the true “rusticus abnormis sapiens, for what Tern doesn't know about farming and agriculture could be printed in a very small space. Tcm is very loquacious and inquisitive, and has even been known to be supepextra' noisy. And yet. when you want a favor done, whom do you ask, and who proves your friend. Why, Tom does; and you ought to see him tear around the track. Characteristic: Fog Horn. His barl{ is worse than his bite. “Cicero” ROBERT DONALD EDGERTON Langhorne, Pa. Entered Fall 1923 Natural History Committee (S); Rustic (1), iS , President (S); Union (1), (S). Treasurer (S); President Athletic Association (S); Member of Exccu' tive (S); Characteristic Committee (S); Latin Club (1), (S). Princeps (S); Parliamentary (S); Class Day Committee (1); Varsity Soccer Team (1), (S), Insignia (1), Varsity “W ($); Varsity Baseball Team £1), (S), Varsity “W” (1), (S), Captain (1), (S). “Cognoscere Ciceronem est amare Ciceronem. Cicero doesn’t mind if we tell him he's foolish because he knows he is always trying to make us laugh at some brilliant witticism of his. He's pitcher on the baseball team, plays soccer, tennis, basketball, and just burns up the quartepmile track. It goes without saying that he knows Latin, for we find him presiding over the Latin club. Although he denies it, yet must we say that he has a mania for collecting movie stars' pictures; witness the mural decorations of the glass house. ;r Characteristic: Jackass. Come out, my lord, this is a world of fools. Penn. State 20 SARA GERTRUDE EDGERTON 37 Elmhurst Ave. Trenton, N. J. Entered Fall 192a Proctor Committee (2); Latin Club (2); French Club (2), (1); Athenians (2); Poetry Club (2); Elecutionary Contest Finals (1); Assistant Swimming Manager (1); Union (S); Comitia (S): Home Economics (S); Class Poet (S); Art Club (S). Sentimental Sally may often be caught in the very act of scurrying across the late line, or breathlessly entering a class rocm. Other times she may be reading poetry or reciting it from the rostra, whistling the tune of “The Highwayman. In full cognizance of her poetic ability wre have chosen her as our poet.

(S). Here's good old “Cooper to sympathize with us and cheer us over the rough spots. She has shown us how to play basketball, and win varsities right and left, but in spite of all these honors, or maybe because of them, good fun is by no means lacking. She is a hard worker, and anything in her charge is sure to be done well. For an all 'round good friend, we take off our hats to Peg- Characteristic: Golden Rule.

Entered Fall 1922 Radio (2), (1), Treasurer (1); Brightonians (2); Parliamentary (1), (S), Treasurer (S). Vice Speaker (S); Union (i), (S); Young Friends' Committee (S); Group Leader (S); Class Day Committee (S); Member of Executive (Si; Student Council (S).

Insignia (1), Assistant Manager (1); Class Track Team (1); Class Swimming Team (1). George doesn't mind if you ask him to name all the players on a certain team for a certain year. The rest of us know Babe Ruth, but George knows them all; and there arc volumes of baseball magazines on his desk. George also represents us on the student council, and is the able manager of our basketball team. Can you punctuate this as we would? “Follow Garrett road to success. Characteristic: The Baseball Magazine. What a man has, he is sure of. Haver ford 21 “Fran” MARY FRANCES GOODWIN 1148 Sterling St. COATESVILLE, Pa. Entered Fall 1921 Student Council (3); Gym Squad Leader (3); Proctor 7:15 Collection (3); Proctor Committee (3); Class Chairman (a); Athenians (3), (a); Latin Club (a), (1), (S); French Club (2). (1), (S); Young Friends' Committee (a); Home Economics (1); Class Day Committee (1); Union (1), (S); Delta (a), (1); Class Hockey Team (S). Here's a giggler for you, for Fran laughs all day, and a good part of the night. If you ever see her looking glum, you may score one; for we never have. No one need ask where she is after lunch; as per usual, she is having her Latin read to her in Senior Parlor, but in other lessons she usually plays the “magister.” As a result of her good management, she is in constant de mand for responsible positions and many committees. Characteristic; Laughing Gas. Hospitality sitting with gladness. Wheaton College Willie' W1LLITS PARKER HAINES, JR. 839 Wesley Ave. Ocean City, N. J. Entered Fall 1921 Radio (3). (2), Vice President (3), President (2), Treasurer (3); Union (S); Parliamentary (S); Chief Inspector (2), (S); Year Book Board, Photo' graphic Manager (S); Insignia in Soccer (S); Captain Swimming Team (S); Group Leader (1), (S); Class Swimming Team (1), (S); Student Council (3), (S); Characteristic Committee (S); Social Committee (1). If Willie hits you once while on the soccer field, you will call for help; and yet if you were in the surf at Ocean City, this same call for help would be answered by a veteran life saver. Willie's the foundation of the swimming team, chief inspector (and most severe), and class characteristic and group photographer. He has taken some good pictures this year, witness the con tents of this book. Do you hear the mellow strains of an accordion or a mouth organ? Maybe he is playing “Home, Sweet Home” or “What'll I Do?” We just can’t leave Willie without saying that he is the campus shick. Characteristic: Duck. A solitary sh(r)ief(: the bubbling cry of some strong swimmer in bis agony. LaFayctte DOROTHY LUCILE HALL 1610 Compton Road Cleveland, Ohio Entered Fall 1924 Union; Comitia; Latin Club; Art Club; Girls' Choir; Motto, Mascot, and Flower Committee. Oh, I’m so thrilled” yes indeed, that's little Dottie with the golden brown curls and bewitching smile, expressing her feelings. She has been trying desperately hard to prove to us that the West—(i. e., Ohio) is not wild and woolly, and we regret that she did not start some years sooner. When the rising bell rings, and we hear a little pitter patter in the hall, we know that Dot is up, ready to inspire us with pep and frivolity for another day. Characteristic: Mellon's Baby Food. The grass stoops not, she treads on it so lightly. Wheaton College Dot” 22 “Hetty' ESTHER KITE HARRIS King St. Westport. Conn. Entered Fall 1910 Dress Committee (3); Athenians (3), (2), President (3); Head of School in Scholarship (2); Union (1), (S); Comitia (S); Chorus (S); Fourth Rank Skating (1); Delta (1), (S); Brown and White Board (1), (S); Cum Laude (S); Young Friends' Committee (1). Hetty has a way of often raising her soprano voice to inspire you with “Tales of Hoffman,” or other select pieces; she is no less adept on the guitar, either, and she is a great advocate of “All AY and Cum Laude. If you do not find her answering difficult questions before a group of young hopefuls, she will surely he in “Rotten Row” awaiting her summons from the class rooms below. Characteristic: Song Sparrow. And waste her music on the savage race. Connecticut College Hedley' DAVID HART AS HEDLEY Glenside, Pa. Entered Fall 1922 Bnghtonians (2); Latin Club (1), (S); Union (1), (S). Treasurer (1), Presi' dent (S); Parliamentary (S); Brown and White Board (1). (S), Editor in Chief (S); Improvement Price in Scholarship (1), Highest Scholarship, Boys (i); Triangle (1), (S). The Brown and White looks with pride on its able editor. Dave himself says he is going to be an editor; but honestly, don't you think he would make a good politician? He is one in ten-thousand; he gets 100 s in history exams. Once in a while he takes a day off and wins a peace essay prize, or leads the school in scholarship. We don't mind his sarcasm for we know he is innocent at heart. Characteristic: Editor's Quill. Much Wilson hath made him mad. Haverford JONATHAN ROGERS HEESS La Porte, Pa. Entered Fall 1922 Rustic (2), (1). (S), Vice President (1), Sergeant at Arms (1); Parliamentary (S). Sergeant at Arms (S); Union (1), (S); Fire Chief (S); Track Team (1). (S). Captain (S), Insignia (1), Class Track Team x), (S); Stone House Proctor (1); Radio (2), (1); Class Day Committee (1), Chairman Banquet Committee. The noble art of cooking has descended from Doan to Terry, and Terry is no less a chef than his predecessor. He has a villainous propensity for rousing us out of bed in the dead of night to answer sleepily to a fire drill roll-call, but we know that it is not of his own free will that he does it. Terry is captain of the track team, and in his spare moments runs around or throws the discus. He's also an agricultural expert, and has a row of “A's” chalked up to his credit. Characteristic: Discus. What men have done can still he done. Penn. State “Terry' MARY VICKS JARVIS Exton, Pa. Entered Fall 1920 Prize for Improvement in Scholarship (4); Athenians (3), (2); Dress Committee (1); French Club (2); Hiking Club (2); Monitor 7:15 Collection; Home Economics (1), (S), Vice President (S); Treasure Seekers (S); Art Club (S); Union (S); Cym Squad Leader (S); Comitia. The golden leeks and happy smile of our “baby blonde” hold us entranced. She is also capable of a delicate crimson blush, especially in English class. Far reaching Rumor reports that curiosity once killed a cat; but has generosity ever harmed anyone? At least Jarvis doesn’t think so, and we quite agree with her. Characteristic: Cheerful Cherub. Happy am I, from care I'm free, Why aren't they all contented life me? Earlham “Jones EMLEN HEALY JONES 142 Hilldale Road Lansdowne, Pa. Entered Fall 1922 Brightonians (2); Radio (2), (1), (S), Treasurer (1); Latin Club (2); Class Day Committee (1); Union (S); Manager of Track (S); Relay Team (S); French Club (S); Track Team (S). If you’re looking for satisfaction, Jones will give it to you, for he's very obliging unless you are trying to kid him about being “manger of track this year. Under his managership, the track team is going to have a good chance to prove its worth on the best schedule yet. We are told that Jones is lucky (both in getting out and in), but maybe it is just good management, who knows? Characteristic: Horse Shoe. A luc y chance that oft decides the fate of mighty monarchs. Antioch College Secretary FLORENCE VIOLET LANG Glen Moore, Pa. Entered Fall 1920 Athenians (3), (2); Comitia (S); Union (S); Art Club (S); Class Gym Team (3), (2); Class Hockey Team (3), (2); Class Basketball Team (2); French Club (2). “Chic signifies what? Nickname or disposition? At any rate, we know we could get along better without the nickname than without her cheerful, winning smile. She does a hard task with ease and yet precision, for she believes that “if a thing is worth doing at all, it is worth doing well. Good luck to you, Chic. Characteristic: Cash register. And whispering, I u ill ne'er consent, consented. State Normal “Chic' 24 Helen” HELEN LEROY LINTON 5 i Lincoln Ave. Wilmington, Ohio Entered Fall 1924 Union; Comitia; Music Club; Treasure Seekers; Choir; Art Club. Leroy shows us the true meaning of the big open spaces in the woolly west, for she is big-hearted, broad-minded, and friendly. Maybe she is wild in her Russian dance, who knows? Those who have not been enraptured by the charms of her poetry should lament the fact. Let us be envious of Western College, where Helen is planning to continue her brilliant career. Characteristic: Glue. A witty woman is a treasure. Western Col. for Women ‘‘Jimmie' JAMES SHINN MAIER Bryn Mawr, Pa. Entered Fall 1922 Brightonians (2), Vice President (2), Radio (2).

Varsity W” (S); Tennis Team, (2), (1), (S), Insignia (2), Varsity W (1), (S); Assistant Manager of Tennis (1); Year Book Board, Advertising Man- ager (S). Jimmie has a hard time to keep from getting confused; but did you ever see any one handle a tennis racquet with greater ease? He s a tennis veteran, three years' service. You can't fool Jimmie as to what an advertisement is, however, for he gathers them up for The Brown and White and The Year Book. Might we add that he is teacher's pet in Latin class? Beg pardon! Characteristic: Pool Table (all balled up). Tall( to him of Jacob's ladder, and he will asl( the number of steps. Haverford STANLEY MOORE Guilford College, N. C.

Chief Proctor (S); Parlia- mentary (S); Vice President Athletic Association (1); Latin Club (2); French Club (S), Vice President (S); Triangle (1), (S); Valedictorian (S). Just name something Stanley can't do. It can t be done; he just gets in everything. He is our star athlete, and thinks no more of varsities than the rest of us used to of numerals. When the watch has ticked 53 times, we find S breaking the tape on the 440 yard dash, and he sure can broad jump. He s chief proctor, too, and very strict; but he's very good to us when acting as one of the chief pillars in the temple of justice meaning, of course, the student council. Characteristic: Track Shoe. Thirsty? Just Whistle. 7 Guilford College 25 “Stan” JANET MORRIS 131 West Walnut Lane Germantown, Pa. Entered Fall 1923 Class Day Committee (1); French Club (1), (S); Latin Club (1); Treasure Seekers (S); Comitia (S); Home Economics (S); Union (S); Choral Society (S). Jay's pink tinged smiles never give you the impression that she is sad; in fact, she isn't, except maybe in French class. We've seen her hold down the wheel of a car. and she's a veteran swimmer, too. If you should happen to hear a shriek, you will know she is just having a little difference with her wife, but it really isn't as bad as it sounds. She keeps us posted on the Haver ford songs; so between them and her blushes, we are well entertained. Characteristic: Box of Rouge. Blushing is the color of virtue. Vassar “Isabel ISABEL WOOD MOWRY Woonsocket Hill Road Woonsocket, R. I. Entered Fall 1924 Union; Treasure Seekers; Comitia; Chorus. Isabel has broken down that old tradition that New Englanders are very prim and dignified. Can she laugh? Well, just visit English class and see. She has only been with us a year, but she has definitely proved to us that she should have come sooner. We aren't worrying about her future, for she has a mind of her own, and is in no way afraid to express it. Characteristic: Old Fashioned Bouquet. On their own merits modest men are dumb. ANNE LEA NICHOLSON 118 East Oak Ave. Moorestown, N. J. Entered Fall 1922 Athenians (2); Union (S); Comitia (S). “Le Penseur is in the shade when it comes to silence. Nancy is a fair representative of that quiet, studious type of person who always gets every thing done, and done well. Hard work has its rewards, too, for she is enter ing Bryn Mawr in the fall. Physics and advanced French are a couple of ex amples of the tasks she undertakes. Characteristic: Turtle. Hot in rewards, but in the strength to strive, the blessing lies. Bryn Mawr 26 “Nancy “Frankie FRANCES HARTSELL OSBORNE Pleasant Garden, N. C. Entered Fall 1923 Class Day Committee (1); Union (1), (S), Secretary (S); Comitia (1), (S), Treasurer (S); Home Economics (S), President (S); Art Club (S); Natural History Committee (S); Proctor Committee (S); Chairman Girls’ Choir (1), (S); Gym Squad Leader (S); Monitor 7:15 Collection (1); Music Club (S); Characteristic Committee (S); Manager Tea Room (S). Frankie is as nonchalant and complacent when you arc trying to fuss her as she is when she is working or studying. Her congenial nature and affability always make you feel at ease. There are not many in school busier than she, nor with as much musical talent; for we cede place to her when it comes to tickling the ivories, which she does remarkably well in such places as the community house or at “sings. Characteristic: Cement machine (mixes well). Carolina sun. I'm lonesome. Guilford College “SlKl ALVIN SCOTT PARKER 311 Hamilton St. High Point, N. C. Entered Fall 1923 Radio (1); Parliamentary (S); Union (S). Scott (Siki) Parker the original battling Siki (pronounced sicky). His pugilistic propensities caused him to join forces with the Democratic party, and never was North Carolina more ably represented. His talent as “rook champion has never been contested; and we know that his party will hang together, if he manages it with the same skill that he does his ten cards. Characteristic: Mule (Democratic). Thanl( Cod. I—I also—am a Democrat. Guilford College DAVID SANS BROWN PENNOCK, JR. 1630 Allegheny Ave. Philadelphia, Pa.

There are reports about that Davy used to be a good fighter and a frequent one, but the exuberance of youth has waned, and he now tends strictly to business (his own, too, by the way). In addition to the fact that he plays soccer, writes for the Brown and White, and is Athletic Editor of this book, Davy is a stamp collector, and we know that that requires perseverance, energy, and perception. Characteristic: Telescope. Slowly provoked, he easily forgives. Penn. State 7 Davie” CHARLES EVANS PUSEY Darlington, Pa.

Did you ever hear him recite, and send shivers up and down your back with the murder of Duncan by Macbeth? Many thanks, Charlie (not for the shivers). Characteristic: Basket of fruit. It is more blessed to give than to receive. Dartmouth GEORGE ASHBRIDGE RHOADS 123 E. Central Ave. Moorkstown, N. J. Entered Fall 1922 Latin Club (2), (1). (S); Brightonians (2); Radio (2). (1); Parliamentary (S); Union (S); Natural History Committee (S); Junior Varsity Soccer Team (1), Varsity Team (S), Varsity W“ (S); Assistant Track Manager (1); Third Rank Skating (S); Class Day Committee (1); Chairman Class Pennant Committee (1). One could do worse than be obliging and courteous. Courtesy is, figure atively speaking, George's middle name. George doesn't mind if we kid him about his form on the ice or on the track, because he knows that we know that he knows that we are just kidding him. George is a good hiker, but often takes his bicycle; at any rate, we make him walk on Natural History Day. Characteristic: Venus. Life is not so short but that there is always time for courtesy. Haverford COMLY BIRD RICHIE 154 East Main St. Moorkstown, N. J. Entered Fall 1922 Chairman of Second Class and below (2); Advisory Committee (1); Brightonians (2); Rustic (2), (1), (S); Radio (2), (1); Union (1), (S); Parlia- mentary (S); Second Rank Skating (S); Junior Varsity Soccer Team (2), Numerals (2), Varsity Team (1), (2). Varsity “W“ (1), (S), Class Team (2). (1), (S), World Team (2), (S); Track Team (1), Class Team (1), (S). Our quiet and hard-working neighbor; he is carrying eight subjects this year, so we really can't blame him for minding his own business. He's the only one who can ski on both skis; very often he takes a vacation and has some fun. and some one said he was going to break the discus record. Soccer season is over, but we just want to remind you that he was one of our starriest players. Characteristic: Slide Rule. Let every man mind his own business. Antioch College “Richie’ 28 “Scat' MARY MORRIS SCATTERGOOD Villa Nova, Pa. Entered Fall 1923 Comitia (1), (S): Latin Club (1), (S); French Club (1), (S); Proctor Com' mittec (1); Union (1), (S).

Did you ever try to argue any point whatsoever with Scat when she didn't want to be convinced? You might just as well try to tell her she can’t swim. She equally excels in other sports, and also provides the finishing touches for our school life and committees by presenting us with her pleasing manner and helpful suggestions. Our social functions require a loquacious, and yet reserved debutante, and here Scat is in her clement. Characteristic: Red Bathing Suit. Society is the spice of life. Connecticut College “Sparky HELEN BERTHA SHARPLESS Toughkenamon, Pa. Entered Fall 1923 Treasurer of Class (1); Home Economics (1), (S); Class Hockey Team (1); Chairman Desk Committee (1); Monitor 7:15 Collection (1); Comitia (S), Clerk (S); Proctor Committee (S); French Club (S); Art Club (S); Union (S); Motto, Mascot, and Flower Committee (S). That innocent look of kindly beneficence and jollity strikes the key note of Helen’s character, and we neither wish, nor are able, to change it. Her credulity in human nature has sometimes relentlessly allowed her to be stuffed. and yet her amiable nature never permits her to resent our attacks. It is whispered among the boys that Helen sets the fashion in ribbons to snitch. Characteristic: Age of Innocence. Let gentleness my strong enforcement be. Pierce Business School ANNA HAINES SHARPLESS Toughkenamon, Pa. Entered Fall 1923 Union (S); Home Economics (1), (S); Class Day Committee (1); Gym Squad Leader (1); Class Hockey Team (S); Comitia (1), (S). “Please, dear, just a moment, does this ribbon match my dress? Experi- ence has taught us that this is Anna, one hour ahead of time, getting ready for dinner. She really doesn’t go to the nursery as often as we say she does, but she spends a lot of her time there, nevertheless. She is blessed with that faculty of not working superfluously hard and yet getting out on grades; all in all, we have found her a good sport and a jolly companion. Characteristic: Pogo Stick. Mildest manners and the gentlest heart. Boston School of Physical Education 29 “Anna' “Percy' CHARLES FREDERICK TAYLOR 40 Forman St. Bradford, Pa. Entered Fall 1921 Brightonians (3), (2), Secretary (2); Rustic (2), (1), (S); Union (S); Radio (3). ( )� (1), (S); Latin Club (2), (1); French Club (2). When first you hear Percy’s voice, it reminds you of a little prairie flower; that is, of course, when he sings. He has been known to dance, and has even been seen going to Phila. Besides being a good actor and always being well dressed, Mabel has an uncommon propensity for collecting lamp shades. Characteristic: Lamp Shade. As good he out of the world, as out of fashion. Mont Alto Dan DANIEL D. TEST, JR. Moylan, Pa.

First Prize (S); Motto, Mascot, and Flower Committee (S). Dignified and commanding, oratorical and judicious, and here is Dan, our Student Body president and Penn relay runner. Excuse us, did we say dignified? Only when on the throne of justice, for nobody gets more enjoy- ment out of school life than Dannie. One cannot get his goat, nor is it easy to outspeak him, for he won first place in the elocution contest. Characteristic: Kiddie Kar. Ain't we got fun. Haverford MABEL SUSAN THOMAS Adena, Ohio Entered Fall 1924 Home Economics; Union; Comitia. Allow us to introduce you to our Home Economical expert. Mabel can turn a practical and helping hand at a good many things; in fact, most things. She is endowed with the power of silence when she has nothing to say; and occasionally she detaches herself from her studies, and turns to the lighter task of waiting on the crowds in the Tea Room. It is hard to get Mabel's goat, for her good temper always predominates. Characteristic: Memorandum book. The world is so full of a number of things, I am sure we should dll be as happy as things. 30 “Mabel “Bill' WILLIAM ALLEN TOMLINSON Tomlynhurst, High Point, N. C. Entered Fall 1923 Radio (S); Union (S); Rustic (S); French Club (S); Latin Club (S). Don’t insult Bill by asking him where he comes from. Can’t you sec the ‘High Point Enterprise” and the sunny South beaming in his countenance? No, that is not a statue on the Senior porch, that’s just Bill posing for his characteristic picture. Some day, we have heard. Bill is going to beat out Paul Whiteman as orchestra director. He is also proficient in the noble art of ’’Rook. Characteristic: Ticket to Phila. Cursed be he that moves my bones. Duke University “Frances” FRANCES AGNES WELLS 601 Laramie St. Atcheson, Kan. Entered Fall 1924 Union; Comitia; Art Club. We used to think that Dorothy could giggle, but now her sister has proved to us that the former was a sphinx compared to herself. Frankie’s laugh is infectious and we always know, when we hear seme one say, “Hey, wha’s the ahdea?” that it is our Kansas friend coming to lighten our troubles, not the least of which is shutting our windows in the early morning hours. Characteristic: “Cure for Giggles.” What can’t be cured, must be endured. Friends’ University ALVIN AUSTIN WILDMAN Selma, Ohio Entered Fall 1923 Radio (1); Rustic (1), (S); Union (S); Parliamentary (S); Natural History Committee (S).

Captain Senior Team; Baseball Team (1), Insignia (1); Stone House Proctor (S); Class Track Team (1). Austie comes from the wild and woolly West. Idaho7 No, Ohio. He takes care of the stone house, and we don’t see him very often, but we know that his hobby is pretty clothes—what else can that mean but good-looking suits and neckties? Austie plays basketball, launches the discus, and he’s going to play a good game at first base this year. Then, too. Austie does not exactly despise the fair sex. Characteristic: Ohio Time Table. I saw and loved. Earl ham 31 “Austif.’ ELIZABETH WILSON YOUNG 244 S. 21st St. Philadelphia, Pa.

You said----- Who said?” Then a feeble wavering voice pipes up, Thee said—, etc. Don't be alarmed. Betty is only trying to live up to her Quaker ideals. Betty makes more noise than a tribe of Indians, and is as temperamental as the most prima, prima donna. Also, her private collection of songs and witty sayings is choice, and apparently endless. Above all, she wants what she wants when she wants it, and pep is not lacking in her cor.' stitution. Then, too, she has an undying propensity for wearing silk and calling it mercerized broadcloth. Characteristic: Aeroplane. The windy satisfaction of the tongue. Academy of Fine Arts Familiar Fibs Betty Young: I can't think of anything to say. Dave Carter: I don’t believe I want anything to eat. Willie Haines: Your pictures will be here tomorrow. David Keiser (in Math Class): I'm going too fast for you. Wistar Wood (in Physics Class): This experiment is going to work today. Janet Morris: I'm not blushing. Carroll Brown: I will give you a short assignment for tomorrow. Natural History Committee: We walked more than twelve miles. “Colonel”: I heard KHJ, KFI, KGO, and KGW last night. 32 The following letter was found among the tennis manuscripts handed over to next year’s manager. Dear Annabelle: I know you must miss me an awful lot, and thanks for your letters every day. I am an awfully busy person now and I have b;en too busy to write to you before this. You know I am making big here. School could not get along without me; I am in all the societies and am connected with almost everything important that goes on here. 1 always have a lot of valuable suggestions to offer, and they always call on me when a new project is put forth for my opinion on it. In fact, I am just about it. All the little kids just worship me, and the teachers all come to me for advice on how to run their classes. Why, just the other day Master James came to me when he had a difficult problem to solve, and of course I helped him out for I know he has a lot to do now. Even the very first day of the first year that I was here, I could see that they all knew that I was the best fellow that ever crossed the pike. 1 have a funny nickname that doesn't mean much; I guess it is just an endearing term given me by some of the smaller children because I have been so good to them. And that isn’t all, Annabelle; I am also about the smartest fellow in school. Why, my room is always full of boys who have some hard problem in Math., or a difficult line in Latin. I always help them out, though, because I can imagine how hard it would be to get along in a place like this if one were dumb. Of course their problems are always pie for me, but I never say so for I don’t want to hurt their feelings. I am pretty good at athletics, too; you ought to have seen me playing tennis the other day. I was playing with one of the teachers, and just to make it interesting, I told him I would give him fifteen points on each game. He was pretty lucky all along though, and finally beat me after a hard match, 6-i, 6-3. I am pretty good in track, too, and when we were throwing the discus in the meet, 1 came within an inch of the school record. I could have broken it, but I just took it easy like the good sport that I am. Well, now that I have told you all about school, write soon and tell me how you get along without me. 33 The Life History of ’25 HAVING found the door of the vault near the library standing invitingly open one rainy day, I ventured in and gazed reverently about. There, in the dustiest and dimmest corner, a yellowed and crumbling volume caught my eye. “Ancient History,” I thot, and looked within and there on a torn and well-worn page, I saw these names: David Pennock and Alice Brown, of Pennsylvania; William Breedlove, of Wash- ington, D. C.; Thomas Dewees, of Ohio, 7th grade. And lo! they were the neucleus of the class of ’25. Well may they be remembered as pioneers in learning. Now thoroly interested in this small number of eager seekers after knowledge, 1 next turned to the somewhat less dilapidated book bearing the date 1920. Clara Dewees came from Ohio to join her brother and became one of our famous Art Editors; Stanley Moore tore himself away from Guilford to win an Old English W, one of the highest athletic awards Westtown gives; Sam Brinton, a New Jerseyite, braved the dangers of Pennsylvania to gain knowledge; while Chick Lang joined the other Pennsylvanians; and Hetty Harris came down from Connecticut to fill the halls with her lilting voice. All this information made me insatiable, and switching on the light, and carefully closing the door to prevent disturbance, I routed out 1921 from beneath a pile of “Dress Regulations.” Under 1925 there were nine names enrolled. Pennsylvania led the list with Betty Young, ardent conversationalist and artist; Bill Alsop, distinguished scholar, skater, and statesman; for he is our Senior president and runs the Year Book most effi- ciently; Frances Goodwin, invaluable on committees where a lot of talking is done; and Fred Taylor, the immaculate. The nearby states of Delaware and New Jersey lent us respectively Lou Bringhurst and Willie Haines, the latter our champion swimmer and life-saver. At this juncture in my fascinating research, the door of the vault was opened and a gruff voice said, You’d better come out of there if you don’t want to smother,” and so out into the sunshine that followed the rain, and the bright daylight, into the high po- sition and fame of second class came ’25. The 1922 volume was fatter than the others. One whole class had adjourned from Friends’ Select to favor us with their presence; in this group stood Dave Carter, a good soccer man; Esther Carter, his sister, fullback on the hockey team; George Garrett, an all-round athlete; Emlen Jones, track manager and also a promising track man; Jimmie Maier, our first class president and Advertising Man- ager of both the Year Book and the Brown and White; Charlie Pusey, a promising violin- ist; Junie Test, a Varsity soccer and track man, in addition to being Student Body president; Dotty Crawford, she of the infectious giggle; Polly Conard, her breezy room- mate, who spends her time going from one committee to another, and in between times bosses the girls' Student Body. Terry Hesse journeyed here from northern Pennsylvania to join us, and Dave Hedley came from Glenside to whip the Brown and White Board into shape, and charm the ladies with his curls and blushes. Demure but athletic Frances Cope got on a train at Media and stopped here to become our First Class secretary and be elected to Cum Laude, not to mention the hockey and basketball positions which she most ably filled. Seven young hopefuls from Moorestown came to swell the numbers, 34 to wit: Walt Darnell, all A student and president of Radio; Peg Evans, Varsity hockey and basketball, and president of Northfield; Carol DeCou, another Art Editor; Com Richie, a Varsity soccer man; Emma Brown, with a propensity for giggling and tea; George Rhoads, slow and steady; Nancy Nicholson, who always knows the queer Latin constructions; and also from New Jersey came Sara Edgerton, with her poetic and aesthetic nature. Washington again showed her appreciation of Westtown by sending Wilmer Kenworthy, who does a noble deed in arranging boys' First Day evening cob lections. When 1923 rolled round, according to the records, Alfred Borton, lonely at Moores- town without his crony, Walt, came from New Jersey to be with him. North Carolina sent a delegation of four students, namely: Scott Parker, William Tomlinson, Mabel Chappell, the studious, and Frances Osborne, the harassed chairman of second floor proctor committee. From Pennsylvania came Art Brinton, Editor-in-chief of this volume; Cicero Edgerton, soccer man and able talker; Carroll Shipley, who always gets A in English; Jay Morris, of the many blushes; Helen and Anna Sharpless, both great additions to the class; and Scat, our all round athlete and scholar. Ohio exerted itself to the extent of producing Austin Wildman, who runs the Stone House. And then, the records said, they were Seniors. To help bear the weight of this dignified title and the adoration and reverence of the undergraduates, came Isabel Mowry, from Rhode Island; Shrimp Lane from New York and Oakwood to be our Senior secre- tary and joke, box; Frances Wells, who dared the perils of the long trip from Kansas to be with us our Senior year; Ohio again sent us a delegation in the shapes of Dot Hall, an honor student; her demure room-mate, Mabel Thomas; Helen Linton and Bert Bangham, inseparable chums; and Ed Bailey, whose presence in the office is indispensable. After I had read these names I turned the page, only to find a clean white sheet. Let’s fill that with the fame and deeds of 1925. 35 Awards Most Respectful Most Stubborn Most Inquisitive Most Natural Most Affected Most Tactful Most Unconceited Most Efficient Biggest Tease Easiest Stuffed Easiest Fussed Hardest to Fuss Most Humorous Most Practical Most Conceited Strongest Best Singer Daintiest Best Mixer Peppiest Most Kind-hearted Most Sentimental Most Talkative Quietest Most Original Best Dressers Most Unruly Most Candid Nicholson Funniest Conard ScATTERGOOD Brightest Alsop T.

Garrett, Senior Member at Large Cyrus R. Harvey, First Class Member J. Borton Wills, Second and Below Member WE BELIEVE that Student Government, the administration of which comes largely from the Student Council, continues to create in the students a greater sense of responsibility and mutual comradeship than would be possible in other forms of government and discipline. The results of this spirit have been increasingly evident each year since Student Government was started in 1921, and this year the co-operation of the students among themselves, and with the faculty, has been most gratifying. The Boys' Council has had much to do with the social improvements this year, it has introduced new methods in proctoring, and also in the cleaning and inspecting of rooms, to say nothing of its bi-weekly meetings at which all cases of discipline are handled, and demerits or some other punishment given to the offenders. All in all, we count it a successful year. Our system, however, is not perfect, and a thoroughly sound and efficient govern- ment in which the relations between faculty and students is clearly understood is a thing to be desired and a point well worth reaching. May ’26 and each succeeding class, having received this torch of responsibility, pass it on brighter than the year before. This is the hope and challenge of ’25. 42 Girls’ Student Council H. South E. Melior C. DeCou V. Ullery S. Cope C. Magilton M. Conard E. Scanandore D. Hoyle THE Girls' Student Council is composed of eight girls, two from the Senior Class, two from First Class, two frcm Second Class, one from Third Class and below, and the Chief Proctor. The last is a new office this year, and includes supervision of all study collections. It has been more efficient in that it places this very important branch of government under one person whose whole time and thought may be devoted to it. The duties of this Council are varied and include practically every branch of life at Westtcwn. During the first part of the year we managed as heretofore without a definitely worked out scheme. The result was that discipline as a whole seemed rather lax, and, in order to remedy this, the “Credit System” was devised by our faculty mem' ber, Helen P. South, for trial during the Spring term. According to this, each girl re- ceives at the beginning of every week one hundred credits, which are decreased during the week if conduct demands. Lists have been distributed throughout the student body showing the proportional loss for various misdemeanors, but much is left to the con' sideration of the Council. Extra privileges are granted to those with continued high scores, and the necessary penalties for low ones. So far, the system has worked admirably, thanks to the splendid co-operation of Students, Council, and Faculty. 4 The Brown and White Back. Row: Cope, Pennock, Pusey, R. Conard, Chipley.

The Cor- respondence Column has been omitted and The Literary Column inserted in fewer issues than usual. On the other hand more attention has been paid to the smaller, though important happenings of school life, which have been carefully reported. The contribu' tions which the 1925 editorial staff has made to the paper are: A column of club notes, a more active Exchange department, a more definite editorial policy, and the presentation of more school news. 44 Year Book Board Back Row: DeCou, Alsop, Chipley.

McKinney Curator Elizabeth Paige WESTTOWN Literary Union is the outstanding society of the school. It was organized many years ago for the purpose of recognizing and developing literary merit among the students. Its aim is to stimulate and foster literary interest in the school, and towards this goal all its energies are directed. Meetings are held every Sixth day evening in the Library, during the school year. The programs range from groups of essays on the articles in some issue of the Atlantic Monthly to plays given by the Natural History Committee. Talks on interesting and instructive subjects are given from time to time, such as an account of the meeting of The American Historical Society in Richmond, by Samuel Brown, and debates are held twice a term. All members of the Senior Class belong to the Union, and such members of First Class as are elected at specified times during the school year. By a ruling passed this last year, membership in the Triangle or Delta automatically entitles one to membership in the Union, regardless of class. Cum Laude WESTTOWN’S chapter of Cum Laude, which corresponds to Phi Beta Kappa in college, steadily increases. Any Senior is eligible for membership in the middle of the Senior year whose combined average for First Class year and the first semester of Senior year is 88%. Seniors who have an average of 85% for both First and Senior years are elected to membership at Commencement. There is every expectation of adding several boys and girls to this list at the end of the year, while four girls, Frances G. Cope, Esther K. Harris, Mary B. Conard, and Alice D. Brown have attained this honor in the middle of their Senior year. Frank Aydelotte, president of Swarthmore College, spoke to the school at the time of their initiation. 49 Parliamentary Back, Row: Pusey, Parker, W. Wickersham, McKinney, A.

PARLIAMENTARY has for a number of years existed as an institution among the boys for the promotion of the knowledge of parliamentary rules and the prob' lems of government. This society is theoretically an effigy of the United States Senate. Senators represent their respective states, and the house is divided according to its respective parties. Due to our change in the time for meeting this year, we have been unable to have Master Samuel H. Brown with us, whose valuable assistance and knowb edge have been an inestimable aid to the society in past years. With shame, we regret to say that Parliamentary has degraded in his absence. Our bills have tended more to the frivolous than the serious and constructive as would become our body. Even at that we will admit that this year’s sessions have been a great benefit to us, and also have sup' plied us with not a little merriment. We have had plenty of snappy debates, bills, amend' ments, motions, etc., and we have learned how to stand up on our two feet and ex' temporaneously argue. To next year’s group we extend the kindest greeting and trust that they will profit by our mistakes and our accomplishments, and above all that they remember the purpose of this educational society. 50 Comitia Bciclf Row: Osborne, Scattergood, Hall, Edgerton, A.

Brown Eleanor Wills COMITIA is the girls’ parliamentary society. It was founded in 1921, as a club to be devoted to the discussion of current topics and to the practical study of parliamentary law. The society includes all the Seniors, and a large number of first class and faculty members; these “senators” from the various states propose, discuss, and vote upon bills dealing with current problems and government affairs. During the year we have had many interesting debates on such subjects as the purchase of Muscle Shoals, the resignation of Hoover and Weeks, and the abolishing of the death penalty. Comitia has advanced greatly during the past year, so that although we realize that the society is not very well known to the school at large, we feel assured that it will become a larger factor in Westtown life. The open meeting of the spring term was a step in the right direction. 51 Rustic Society Back R°w: R. Edgerton, T. Rhoads, Tomlinson, E. Wickersham, J. Bringhurst, Alsop, Wildman, Richie.

The Society has always endeavored to accomplish two aims—first, to explain to its members some of the important phases of agriculture as seen by men of experience; second, to give its members more instruction in systematic organization. The activities of the Society have been on the same order as in the past, but follow' ing different lines of entertainment, which this year consisted mainly of trips to various places of agricultural importance, and also talks by Master Russell Edgerton and visiting speakers. 51 Home Economics Back Row: E.

In the fall, after we had had some talks on arrangement of flowers, the members of the society competed in a flower arranging contest. It resulted in Sara Edgerton receiving first prize. Just before Spring Vacation we had two very interesting talks furnished by the Milk Producers' Association.

Both Wistar Wood and Eugene Raiford have helped con' siderably in this line. Articles from up:to-date radio magazines were read at meetings. The Club has lately built a set, using some of its old material and some new. The new outfit works much better than the old ready-made apparatus, and it is hoped that this set may be put in a cabinet and improved next year. 55 Brightonian Literary Society Bacl( Row: H.

There has been a wide variety in the programs, due to the hard and faithful work of the curators and Mary Damerel, the honorary member. The lives and works of several writers have been presented, and three or four short plays have been given during the year.

Brown Tresorier William Breedlove THE members of Le Cergle Frangais derive much enjoyment and French atmosphere from the monthly programs which have been a great success, due to the efforts of Marian Rustedt and Caroline Nicholson. Each month, in addition to a general program, a short play is given in which the parts are read, and on one occasion, Mad' amoiselle Cecile Brochereux, a Swarthmore student, recounted her experiences during the early part of the war. At the open meeting on April 24, the Cercle presented a play called, “Les Deux Voleurs de Vincennes.” Latin Club Princeps Pro-Principe Scriba R. Donald Edgerton Esther N. S. Silver Esther A.

Finally, due to the enthusiastic backing of First Class and some Seniors it got fairly on its feet and the meetings have been unusually interesting and instructive. One entire program was devoted to the funeral customs of the Romans, and another to the life and works of Virgil. At one of the early meetings of the club Anna Brown gave a talk on their visit to Rome. Six short scenes from the lives of famous Romans took up another pro' gram. The regular open meeting of the Society, held in Fourth Month, consisted of a short play entitled “A Roman School.” 58 JAMES WALKER AUSTIE HEDLEY SOUP 59 Art Club Bdd( Row: Pusey, E.

Willitts THE Art Club is still very young, having been formed at the beginning of this year by members of the three higher classes who take drawing, and a few others who are especially interested. Most of our meetings have been devoted to the study of famous old masters; Carroll Brown has given several very interesting talks on various artists, illustrating them with prints of many famous pictures. 60 The Young Friends’ Committee OF ALL the centers where young people of the Society of Friends are grouped together, institutions such as Westtown should be the fields for sowing the seeds of co-operative effort in thinking and working out their particular problems. A committee of ten students, representing all elements of Westtown life, with two faculty members has functioned this past year with this thought in mind. The committee planned and directed the annual Vocational Conference during the winter, and aided in making the children's session of the Yearly Meeting an encouraging success. In addition, each member of the committee attended one or more times the regu- lar meetings of the Executive body of the Young Friends Committee of the Yearly Meeting. In this way Westtown students were kept somewhat in touch with the trend of thought throughout the larger body and we hope that valuable contacts may have thus been formed. The Northfield League President Margaret C. Evans Leaders Alice D. Brown Frances G. Cope Mary B. Conard Dorothy E. Crawford Mary M. Scattergood IN OUR Northfield meetings on First-day nights, we endeavor to straighten out school difficulties, and to talk over our problems informally. This discussion seems often more worthwhile than meetings with definite programs. Beside these group meetings we have had inspiring speakers on such subjects as international service in Japan and Korea, and social service at home. At Christmas time we filled stockings for the children who live about on the farm. We hope this spring to have from four to six leaders who are prominent in the Northfield Conference work to come and spend a week- end with us, which will bring new inspiration and interest. Music Club President Secretary A. Austin Wildman Alberta Banghan AT T HE instigation of several students and faculty members, permission was granted to form a Music Club. There are about twenty members not necessarily musical, the requirements being an interest in music. At the bi-weekly meetings we discuss different phases of music and its composition. First, the orchestra was explained and records illustrating the various instruments were played. Then came the great com- posers and the stories of their operas, with as much help from the Victrola as possible. Music Club has helped considerably in the appreciation of music and its composition, and we sincerely hope it may continue. 61 Triangle and Delta William K. Alsop, Jr., ’25 John H.

The disappointment of the year was the cancelling of the George School game, which, since it was to have been on the home grounds, should have netted us one more, and that the most coveted victory. There is some comfort in the fact, however, that contrary to the usual custom, the team played an excellent game against Girard College in Philadelphia; not, to be sure, good enough to win, but not completely foozling as is too often the case on their narrow and difficult grounds. A practice game not appearing on the schedule was one played with a team of Westtonians from Haverford College. We rather more than held them for one half, but it was not to be expected that this could continue against a team, six of whom were on the Haverford Varsity. The 1924 season was an improvement over last year. The team showed in most of the games a very good type of soccer. The center forwards, F. Houghton, L. Bringhurst, and Captain Test, developed a pretty regular habit of scoring, which, after all, is what wins games. The outsides, Rhoads, Richie, and C. Jones, were usually able to get past the half'backs; Stanley Moore was moved in from outside to center half-back, and quickly learned to play that difficult position. Maier developed great accuracy in. placing his passes, recalling the playing of Eddie Wood, and Harvey made steady progress at the other half-back position. At full-back Allen proved a hard player to pass, and Edgerton gave him excellent support. Alsop at goal was all that could reasonably be expected of him, stopping many shots that seemed sure scores. On the whole, we can heartily congratulate Captain Test for his team, and we wish Captain Allen as good a season or a better one next year. THE TEAM Age Weight Height Points William K.

Six veterans formed a fine nucleus for the team, and so much good material was at hand that a vigorous eleven could be chosen early in the year. The backfield soon proved exceptionally strong and steady and surprisingly fast. The halfback line was inclined to “mark” some' what too loosely at times, but was particularly clever in offensive work. Although some of the forwards were more speedy than others, they were all steady and dependable. The fast dribbling of Betty Whitacre and Florence Houghton was a feature of the season’s play. When the final hockey awards were given, each section of the field proved to have a Varsity girl. Betty Whitacre, as forward, received her W, and Margaret Evans, center halfback, and Alice Brown, fullback, also received theirs. The first game of the season was with Germantown Friends’ School, by whom Westtown had been beaten last year. The team was able to blot out the past by a 2-0 victory after a hard fight. The next match was with the Old Scholars, captained by Hildegarde Jacob, a member of the AlbAmerican team. The Westtown girls could not boast so many individual stars, but by steady team work they were able to win 4-1. The match with Friends’ Select, later League Champions, resulted in a defeat of 3-1, but the gloom was soon dispersed by a victory over Mary Lyon with the same score in reverse order, 3-1. Long wing dribbles and clever defense work made this one of the prettiest games of the season. After the outside matches were over, a School-Senior game was scheduled. This was won by the School, 6-i. The season closed with some jolly games with the soccer boys and the faculty, and all the players put away their hockey sticks feeling that the two and a half months had brought much pleasure as well as an increased skill and knowledge of the game.

The squad suffered heavily from the loss of several players on account of ineligibility or sickness. Henderson and Thompson, two of last year’s regulars, and Marvel left school, while Wildman and Captain Moore were on the injured list most of the season. These five alone could have made a good Var' sity team. The early season games did not give much trouble, although Friends’ Central gave us quite a scare. Swarthmore Prep proved the first stumbling block in a game featured by poor goabshcoting. The next week the team came back strong and defeated the fast Swarthmore College Freshman quintet, who had previously doubled the score on Swartlv more Prep. The later season games were all close and exciting, but in most of them the final scoring punch was lacking. The regular lineup consisted of Allen and Borton as forwards, Moore as center, and Jones and Garrett guards, though frequently many substitutions were made. Later when Captain Moore had to leave school on account of ill health, Borton was shifted to center and Wildman became a Varsity forward. By the end of the season Cox had made wonderful improvement and had almost clinched a regular position. The team showed appreciation of this by electing him next season’s captain. The Year Book wishes him the best success for the coming year. THE TEAM Alfred C. Ecrton, '25, Forward and Center. Samuel L. Allen, ’26, Forward.............

The first association was very faithful working on signals and passes, and although only three of our last year’s team were on the association, there seemed to be good material among some new players. Our first game was discouraging, but it only made us work all the harder. Our schedule also was bigger than ever before, as we played five schools, not including Old Scholars whom we played twice.

With five veterans returning from last year, there has been plenty of new material to fill in the other four vacant places. The team won the first three games on the schedule with ease. The first was with Williamson, which was defeated, 5-1. In the next engagement, Wilmington Friends' School was snowed under, 19-2. The Old Scholars were the next victims, the score being ij'2 when the game was finally over. The batting was very effective, especially in a pinch, scoring 57 runs in three games, while Cox's fine pitching helped to keep the opposing hitters from scoring. The team was particularly strong in the catching and pitching departments, and in the outfield. Cox was an excellent pitcher, but is even better as a catcher. Jones, the regular catcher, did well, and improved all the time. The outfield, composed of Garrett, Reagan, and Bringhurst, was heavy hitting, and all were good fielders. Wildman, Edger- ton, and Darnell were fixtures in the infield, but Masters experienced some hard com- petition for the second base job. With four men returning next year, the prospects are fairly good for another sue' cessful season, since the star battery of Cox and Jones will return, along with Reagan in the outfield and Masters in the infield, around whom the team may be rebuilt.

The team won from the Philadelphia Normal and Williamson School, 6-o and 8-o with one match incomplete in the latter. They sustained their first reverse when they were beaten by the strong Central High School team. The match was much closer and much harder played than the score, 7-1, with one match unfinished, indicates. Manager Alsop overcame all opposition from his teammates and played first singles. Captain Carter was second singles, and the rest of the team consisted of J. Maier, S. Allen, S. Moore, A. Brown, W. Breedlove, W. Wickersham, and T. Rhoads. The competition for places was very keen, and all had to play top-notch tennis in order to retain their places on the team. The courts were put in fine condition, new posts being put in some, and one being resurfaced with a top layer of dirt. Manager Alsop and the other tennis team candidates gave lavishly of their time and energy so that the courts could be kept in the best possible condition for playing. The schedule arranged by Manager Alsop was one of the longest in recent years, and the team had to give their best to make the season a success and to maintain the enviable record achieved by the teams of the past few seasons.

Mae January FEELING that the scheme of Class Ladder tournaments was successful last year, we decided to follow it again this year, and it has proceeded quite satisfactorily. Owing to the departure of some of our best players with last year’s class, our first association has been laboring under difficulties, but they are at least working hard. On May 14th we played Germantown, using the four best players from each of the four upper classes and four from the student body at large. On Alumni Day came the match with the Old Scholars, and the 30th of May brought the hard match with George School. The cup tournament closed the year, the winner having her name engraved on the Savery Cup. 80 Averages in the Noble Art Attendant Upon Meals I—Quantity Dave Carter and Bill Alsop I .OOO The figures speak for themselves.

Russell Edgerton WITH only one man remaining from the championship relay team of last year, the prospects for a fast team at the start of the season were far from bright. How- ever, Coach Edgerton succeeded in molding together a team, consisting of Donald Edgerton, ’25, Emlen Jones, '25, Daniel Test, ’25, and Wilmer Kenworthy, '25, so that they won the Friends' School Relay Championship of America for the second successive year at the Penn Relay Carnival. A new feature in the schedule was the dual meet with the Alumni, planned for the last Friday in May. The scheme had many difficulties for the Old Scholars to overcome, but the meet was looked forward to both by the Alumni and the students themselves. The annual meets with the Haverford College Freshmen and Williamson School have given the track team as a minor sport an excellent opportunity to keep up the fine record made by Westtown in the major sports: soccer, basketball, baseball, and tennis.

Gordon Sheppard THIS year was the first in recent years during which a regularly organized swimming team was supported among the boys. Due to the late date at which it was finally decided to have a team, it was impossible to obtain many dual meets with other schools. However, individual members were entered in the Swarthmore College Inter- scholastic meet, and a dual meet with West Philadelphia High was engaged in, besides an intra-mural handicap affair open to the whole school. In the meet with West Phila- delphia, the team was outscored, but all of the events were exceedingly close and evenly- contested, West Philadelphia often winning by only a foot. The relay team, composed of Marston, Wills, Cox and Haines placed fourth in the relay event in the Swarthmore meet, although no other men placed. Among the ones who are looked upon to be among the point-winners next year are Marston, Captain-elect Cox, B. Wills, J. Wills, L. Haines, A. Brown, Masters, and Gardiner. Great credit is due to Coach Sheppard for his hard work in coaching the team, and for the inspiration he has given them. 83 9' 9 9M0 9'12 9 3 9-20 9 21 9'25 9 26 io '2 i O' 3 i o 4 lO'IO I O'!

THAT man, I think, has had a lib- eral education who has been so trained in youth that his body is the ready servant of his will, and does with ease and pleasure all the work that, as a mechanism, it is capable of; whose intellect is a cold clear logic engine, with all its parts of equal strength and in smooth work- ing order; ready like a steam engine, to be turned to any kind of work, and spin the gossamers as well as forge the anchors of the mind;whose mind is stored with a knowledge of the great and fundamental truths of nature and the laws of her opera- tions; one who, no stunted ascetic, is full of life and fire, but whose passions are trained to come to heel by a vigorous will, the servant of a tender conscience; who has learned to love all beauty, whether of nature or of art, to hate all vileness, and to respect others as himself.
