THE MECHANIC 94-,.,.7CX' ' PRESIDENT WILLIAMSON SCHOOL ll IIQHTIII-1LlLASSUIf 1919 DEAR Yocxo Iflenixnsz H HE time of your graduation is drawing near, which means for you ' Q departure from the place where for three years your every moye- ' ment was most carefully provided for and directed by an organiza- gr, pg? tion of skilled executives, teachers, and artisans who were l K K ' S interested in your welfare and development. The value to you of ff, S the result of all this attention will be manifested in the application of the principles applied in your daily vocation. li lhe unlimited scope of opportunity for men trained as you yi have been will Jrovide for each of ou a Jlace of res onsibilitv R I Y I P . and permanence. Your success will depend entirely upon your own efforts. as opportunities unlimited await well trained men who are willing to put every Ounce of intelligence, ability. and energy which they possess into their vocation with an eye single to the employment prospects ahead. Your success can be measured by the success of your employer. to which you must contribute a generous part. YVith sincere wishes for a prosperous future for each of you. I am. Very truly your friend.

S a young man Completes his course of training in preparation for life. it is well for him to pause a little while and review his student work. In this he should take aeeount of review stoek and nnd out what he ltas during his years at sehool. School eottrses. as laid dowtt hv educators, tnust necessarily he gen- eral tn their nature. lfaeh individ- ual eannot have zt eourse mapped out which fits his own individual and whieh does not lit the needs of others. lfaeh ntan Cannot have presented at line of study and prztetiee whieh will lit him for sonte partiettlar position. lfaeh man may follow a course which will teaelt the ftutdamentztls of zt major industrial line. and whieh will def JAMES A. PRATT Ihr rf lm velop his powers of analysis. The individual must not depend on his teaeher to do all the work of devel- opment, however: he must do at great deal himself. and his sueeess depends largely on his :tltility to study, It has lmeen said that zt man who knows how to study has an edneation, and tlte statement is a true one. lf a person has mastered the art of study, he may take up any suhjeet he wishes and gain a working knowledge of it. for in the act of study we lind emltodied all the elements of analysis. experiment. and construction. 'lieaelters always :tim to develop in students the :thility to study: industrial teaelters :tim in addition, to give manual eontrol. .Xs you look ltaek over your three years at NN'illiamson. make an estimate ol your developed eapaeity in study and manual control. for this is largely an index of vour sueeess during training. lt' you have learned how to take hold of a jolt. and study the prohlems of produetion involved, and how to apply your solution in zt praetieal way, you have enormously increased your value from an industrial WILLIAMSON SCHOOL I3 standpoint, and your three years at Williamson have been well spent. If you have gained such power as described, you should not permit yourself to lose it. as you have a possession of great value. Many persons make the mistake of giving up study as soon as they complete their school period. The person who follows such a plan is going backward. Continue your study throughout lifeg study will keep your mind Flexible and in condition to meet the changing circumstances of life. As you grow older you will gain possession of a large fund of useful information relating to your field of endeavor, which will be of great value. As subjects of study you will always End branches relating to your work that are worthy of your attention. Wherever you may be located, study the work of men who are your superiorsg study their methods of solving problems, study the operating system of the firm for which you are working, study the technical papers. and the manual processes underlying the various industrial lines. It is such study that makes the master mechanic a type of man much needed and for whom the door of opportunity is always open. I am wishing for each member of the class of Williamson 1919. all the rewards which may be attained by a faithful performance of duty, and a cou- sistent application of one's self to his chosen line of endeavor. Sincerely yours, JAMES A. PRATT, Director. :Sir ' 940' I 5? x U iHS. KRI RF E LT W A I N . N HUM.-X D. Z I 5 5 .1 LL. .J .I HJ ZA .2 fr I WILLIAMSON SCHOOL VIEW OF MAIN BUILDING rFrom East End!

All these essentials are found at Wlilliamson. Five new farms have been added to the original school farm, making a total acreage of 480. on which a great variety of crops is grown. The crops last year were the largest in the history of Vtlilliam- son. there being raised 700 bushels of wheat. and 1000 bushels of corn. There are already 35 acres of win- ter wheat seeded and prospects are ' good for a bumper crop next year. In preparation for these crops, there were great activities in the way of removing fences. stump blasting, etc., the students gaining much experience in the handling of dynamite. HARVEY R. BURR Instructor in charge of Department of Agriculture Students are given a complete course in dairy husbandry. special attention being given to the keeping, feeding, and milking of the cows. .X complete course in poultry husbandry is one of the special features offered in the agricultural course. there being approximately one thousand fowls in this department. .X well equipped greenhouse is available for those who are interested in the raising of plants and small truck. The past war has opened the eyes of millions to the importance of agriculture as an industry, and we predict for the graduates of Williamson in this department, opportunities for advancement along agricultural lines. Un behalf of the B -l section, we wish to thank Mr. Burr and Mr. Sheerin for their interest in us during our stay at XVllllEllllSO11. FRANKLIN P. MATZ. 2 THE.

WILLIAMSON SCHOOL 23 Qlarpvnirg ff 71 IXRl'I2XTRY has been di- vided into three principal branches: Descriptive. con- structive. and mecltanical. lil, ' Q. The course at Williamson deals somewhat with all three, but more stress is put on the constructive than on the other two. The constructive branch comprises the cutting of timber into different forms and joining them in such a way as to make a larger piece of work. according to the plans or de- signs. The apprentice, on being intro- duced into the first steps of car- pentry. is required to make a num- ber of exercises which illustrate the different joints and construc- tion that he will meet later in his course. These exercises being completed during his Freshman year, he puts the knowledge thus acquired into use by making small furniture, as desks. settees, and the like. In- his second or junior MR. MILLER Instructor in charge of Department of Carpentry. year. he is given the repair work about the plant which properly belongs to his line of work. and there is always plenty of this work to be done. Toward the close of his junior year. as a commencement exercise. he erects a hip and valley roof in the shop. from which quite a good deal of valuable experience can be gained. In his third and last year the apprentice has charge of all the con- structive work and mill work usually taken care of by the carpenter. Un account of the war. the Seniors' course was changed somewhat and road- building and bridge-building was introduced in order to tit us for army service if needed. The material for the bridges was cut in the woods adjoining the school and squared with axes and adzes to the required dimensions. After the armistice was signed this work was discontinued and the former routine was again pursued. Toward the end of the Senior year. and after the Christmas holidays, the lower floor of a frame dwelling was built in the shop. In this exercise all the steps of house construction were put into practice. If a student applies himself to his work during his three years at Xtilliain- son he should be able to work intelligently on any job to which he may be assigned. During our stay at XN'illiamson the 1919 section of carpenters had two very able instructors: first, Mr. Collins. who. at the beginning of our Senior year, died of influenza: second. Mr. Miller, who instructed us in the latter part of our Senior vear. In behalf of the section, I wish to thank Nlr. Nliller for his interest. and efforts in our welfare, as he can not be too highly commended. RICHARD T.

This practice is given to the engineers so that they may he capalmle of handling all repairs on engines and electrical machin- ery. iXfter this training the student enters the power plant. where he is developed to meet life's work.

'l'he engineering class of 1019 has had a consideralile amount of construction work aliout the school. ln our lunior year we helped to erect a new transmission line to a deep-well pumping station.

Elrahv Hli machine trade at VVill- Q 'QED iamson is a well-laid-out course. During the three years we are given a series of notes and lectures which 'lf'-t2 are very important in ex- plaining the various formulas and problems encountered in machine work. ii. 'Qsse l leg. ln the Freshman year the ele- mentary exercises are taught, giv- ing the apprentice a sufficient amount of practice with the bench tools and lathes to enable him to take up the more difficult work with contidence. The junior year brings out calcu- lations for setting up and indexing gear-cutting exercises, and also more advanced work on the larger machines in the shop. ln the latter part of our junior year we had the experience afforded by a general overhauling of the equipment in our shop, which will surely stand ns in good stead as we develop in thc larger field outside our alma lllZlICl'. Machinery lYe were fortunate in having had some general truck repair work in our Senior year. including the operations and adjustments of gasoline motors. This was introduced on account of the conditions arising from the.late war, as we expected to enter the motor transport service. .Xfter the signing of the armistice we resumed our regular course. During the hrst half of our stay here at VVilliamson the machine trade was taught by Mr. Frederick VV. Snyder, who had guided many classes to positions of responsibility in the commercial world. His death was a great loss to the faculty and to his students. The school authorities succeeded in securing Mr. A. S. Logan, who graduated in 1908. to till this vacancy, and he is proving the quality of a VVillian1son training by the manner in which he has taken up the work af the department. ln behalf of the Class of 1919. I wish to extend to the memory of Mr. F. XY. Snyder and to his successor, Mr. A. S. Logan. our deepest appreciation for their stlorts and patience in preparing us for the battle of life. Giaomsiz lfloiznrnu. A. S. LOGAN Instructor in charge of Department of 26 THE MECHANIC liaitern Making N these busy times one hears very little about pat- ternmaking. Nevertheless, this trade has advanced very rapidly and is one of the important trades in the manufacturing world. This trade is taught at VVilliamj son under the most favorable con- ditions. There is a large, well lighted and well ventilated shop 150 feet long and 30 feet wide. It is better equipped than the average shop, for it contains twenty-tive benches, most of which are fitted with lfmmert vises. The machin- ery consists of a 16 jointer, a 2'0 planer, a circular saw, two electric speed lathes, three small belt lathes. two large belt lathes, a band saw, a sanding machine, an oil grinder, a grindstone. a band saw sharpener. and two trimmers. The course, as given here, com- mences with a number of joinery NATHAN J- TOBIAS exercises to familiarize the student with the tools and the various joints used in pattern construction. A series of turning exercises must also be tinished before any real patterns are made. These are very simple, but serve to introduce shrinkage. draft, and finish, allowances very important in the trade work. - The student then advances to pipe joints, segment work, and patterns of machine parts. Many of these patterns are used to produce castings. which are used in other departments of the school. In this way many repairs and new equip- ment may be made for use all through the shops. ln the Senior year the student tinds a practical use for the details of con- struction taken up in the simpler exercises. Lagging-up, skeleton patterns, carded work, boxing-up. work in the metric system. gearing, and foundry practice are introduced. During our stay at XVilliamson a new foundry was erected behind the shops, and although we have not been able to use the cupola, we have gained some good knowledge of foundry .practice and the necessity of draft and smooth finish in a pattern. We cannot express our appreciation for what Mr. Tobias has done for us. lie has done his best, and now the rest remains with us. As we leave Williailison we extend to our instructor our most sincere thanks for his ceaseless efforts to make us good mechanics. gr G. CONNER- GD fy sd. M I 4: 'vs 1, T. Alu vin!

The work is divided into live terms of six months each. Upon starting the course at XVill- iamson, the students time is de- voted to four hours a day in the classroom and four hours in the re- spective shop departments. This schedule is followed until the last term of the Senior year. During the lirst term the stu- dent's work constitutes a general review of arithmetic. physiology. .Xmerican literature. grammar, and vocal music. In the second term algebra. physics, and civil government are introduced. The work of the third term em- braces the following branches: mensuration. algebra, grammar. MISS ABBIE A. ERYE Principal of Academic Department physics. chemistry, lfnglish literature, and vocal music. During the fourth term a valuable asset is geometry, which replaces the period in mensuration. In the fifth term the program consists of geometry, trigonometry phi sits chemistry, and a brief commercial course. Beginning with September of the Senior year. the entire day is spent in tht shops, and evening classes in strength of materials and steam are held duimg this time. The agricultural course is somewhat different from that of the othei ti 1dt Substitutions are made to permit the subjects of botany, agronomy, feeds and feed ing, and veterinary science to be introduced. From November I to March I of th Senior year the agriculturists take mathematics, English. chemistry. farm man IU ment. drawing and laboratory practice, book review. and rural law. Owing to the Industrial Reservef' a considerable amount of class uork nas omitted. but by extra efforts we were able to complete our course in the xllotted time. I wish to say. in behalf of the Class of 1919, that we appreciate the untnmfr interest taken in us by Miss Eyre and her staff of teachers. and ask them to ateept our sincere thanks for the part they have had in fitting us for our future uoik Eizmzsr C.

This course gives the student valuable information in regard to his trade, and enables him to read and use intelligently the prints that are presented to him. Our first attempt in mechanical drawing was somewhat awkward, hut after receiving a few instruc- tions we soon mastered the use of the drawing instruments and started on our ten elementary sheets. which covered straight and curved lines. angles, circles. letters, ligures, projections and develop- ments. Un the completion of this set of drawings we were ready to start on our trade sheets. At this point our class was divided into two sec- tions, the patternmakers, machinists and engineers forming one and the other. -U liCll.rXNIC.-XL drawing is a very important factor in X3 11 fz '- LN The tirst named section took up fifteen trade sheets covering the following: C H IN development of screw threads, gear diagrams. cycloid and involute gears. hevel gears, worm gears, cams and curves. and screw propellers.

The Carpenters also covered fifteen trade sheets comprising window frame and door details. hay windows. door and transom. hip and valley roof, and truss analysis. The .-Xgriculturists worked on sheets dealing with various articles of farm equil nnent. .Xll divisions except the Agriculturists were given sheets covering isometric, parallel. and angular perspective. and a complete set of plans for a suhurlman dwelling.

Z' -'S matrons, and all who have been interested in our welfare. our 7 R many thanks for your thorough instruction and great interest in our progress during our stay here. Classmates, tomorrow a new era opens before us, a time CI, when each of us will have to shoulder his own responsibilities, ' 3 build upon the character already formed, and lead a clean. honor- able and industrious life. We can always better understand and appreciate a man's real character by the manner in which he conducts himself toward those who are the most nearly related to him and by the transactions of his daily duties. There are many persons of whom it may be said that they have no other posses- sion in the world except their character. and yet they stand as firmly on it as any crowned king. By an industrious life I mean a life of constant useful occupation. Worlc is embodied in any occupation, and with the motto. i'Work conquers all things, each one of us should strive to attain that satisfaction which can only be obtained from work well done. Lord Stanley, in an address to the students of Glasgow University, said that he doubted whether hard work, steadily and regularly carried on, ever yet hurt anybody. So let us remember that it is not work but overwork that is hurtful. During the recent war Vlilliamson men have nlled many positions of trust and responsibility. Some have paid the highest price in order that the principles 7 of equality of mankind might become world-wide. Let us, the Class of Nineteen Hundred Nineteen, who are so soon to take our place among the workers of the world. endeavor to uphold' and strengthen these principles. In doing this we shall not only honor our sacrificed soldiers. but shall be carrying out the wish of the founder of this school. Mr. Isaiah Vansant Williamson. to whom we owe our deepest and most sincere thanks and gratitude. RICHARD T.

Even though Husky is small in stature his ability for storing food is com- paratively large. and if you care to see him happy set a large howl of cereal before him and see what he does with it. He prefers cornllakes to oatmeal. There is no doubt that he comes from Altoona. yet he and a few other swells spent a large part of their time in Norristown. No one knew just where they went, but there was no need of going so far when Iflwyn is so close. VVe will try to give you a description of him in the classroom on a Monday morning. Max comes into the room with a far away look and thuds down in his seat. He has a smile on his face. hair parted in the center and pasted down with vaseline.

He has often advised our , instructor in agriculture on important questions concerning' horses, but it turned out that some of his theories were too hnelv s Jun to be mraetical. .. 1 l Steam is a good mechanic. and after he has assembled the truck and has it in good working condition there are enough parts left to build a new truck. The remarkable part of this operation is the fact that the truck runs and gives good service for a long time. Walter is quite a dancer and did much to make the dances given in Media a success. but he made one social blunder which caused a disagreement to arise between himself and his roommate.

My greenness wore off. though, as I strove to make the best of my opportunities, both in class and shop, and became interested in the fellows and the doings of the school. During my hrst year a day was take11 out of each week in order that the boys might work for the neighboring farmers as our part in the necessary war work. This hindered my progress. both in school and athletics, although I played on every 'varsity team that year. The time passed rapidly, and on April 27, 1918, I was given the more digni- tied name of Junior, and I think I like it much better. In my second year military drill was introduced in addition to our regular school training, It's wonderfully fine training for.a fellow.

We hailed from all parts of Pennsylvania fl? all and several were from near-by states. We were all green, no 'f if exceptions being made. ' . '. ,' After a talk from Mr. Bitting and Mr. Pratt concerning the :fig ,-viii school routine, we were given our privilege cards. Some of us still have faint ideas of what they looked like. As soon as we Y landed we were given the time-honored Freshman name, Geezer. There is one consolation, however, and that is that the fellow who called you geezer was at one time a geezer him- self. - During the next few weeks the upper classmen inquired very thoroughly into our past, and also into our future concerning the choice of our respective trades. The inquisitive one always explained that his trade was the best. We answered all questions and agreed that his trade was the ideal one. In the classroom and shop our teachers and instructors have been trying to pierce our craniums to let a few rays of intelligence enter. just how successful they have been need- not be mentioned here. VVe have a number of athletes in our class. As yet many of them are not fully developed. Wiith this material we hope to uphold if not raise the standard of athletics at VVilliamson. - In the comparatively short time that military work has been under way here, the freshman company as well as the other class companies have advanced rap- idly under the instruction of Mr. J. .-X. Pratt, assisted by Mr. Joseph Shisler. Early in November our class officers were elected. Since our organization, our members have shown an active interest in all business that has been trans- acted. We hope this interest will continue. To the Seniors, who are about to leave, we owe our thanks for the many helpful suggestions they have given us. and wish them the best of success in their life's work. FRANK L. STEWART, President.

Athlviir Aaanriaiinn S XVE near the endiof our athletic career at VVilliamson we feel that we have done our best toward making the Athletic Associa- tion a greater and better organization. By very diligent practice, we put a good baseball team on the Held and had a satisfactory season. The track season was not so satisfactory, but the annual interclass track and field meet was resumed again this year and was highly successful. The football season, although very badly hampered by the Hu epidemic, was all that could be expected with the practice The more important games were canceled, therefore the proceeds were not so large as they should have been. The basketball season, although not linished, is very encouraging. Much credit is due the managers for the manner in which they arranged their schedules and managed their respective teams. On February 10 a dance was held in the auditorium, under the auspices of the A. A., and it was an overwhelming success. VVords cannot express our gratitude and thanks to Mr. Pratt for his wise counsel given us in the Advisory Board meetings and to Mr. Logan for his valuable services as coach. . I wish to thank the members of the A. A. for their loyal support given the officers in the past year, and also wish the new ofhcers a very successful term, hoping they will do all in their power to uphold the standards of the A. A.

Four of the eight games had to be canceled. Q' 69' fix- 42 If : : 'vt i ' f y Practice was started about the middle of September, but isa had to be discontinued when the school was quarantined in Q7 October. In reality, the squad had but one week of scrimmage, ' ,f and this was not sufficient time to enable Mr. Logan to develop a good, fast team. Our First game was played with the Villanova Prep School, on the Villanova College grounds, and we succeeded' in getting the largest number of points of a 20-3 score. Our points were obtained by three touchdowns and two goals from touchdowns. After this game, and during the following week, Coach Logan gave the team a number of blackboard talks, pointing out the weaknesses and giving instructions on defensive playing. L Our next game was played on the P. R. R. Y. M. C. A. grounds against the I-Iahnemann Medical College eleven. U-ur opponents in this game scored a touch- down in the tirst few minutes of play, but failed to kick the goal. After they had- scored. the team got down to business and in the third period crossed Hahnemann's line for a touchdown. Wie also failed to kick the-goal, and at the end of the fourth period the score stood 6-6. Our third- game was with the Harrisburg Tech. High School, at whose hands we received the worst drnbbing of the season. Our only score was that obtained by a drop-kick in the second period, and at the end of the fourth period Harris- burg had 100 points, while we had 3, the only points which Harrisburg had scored against them up to that time. 'I'l'e team traveled to Atlantic City on Thanksgiving Day for the final game of the season. and here received its second defeat. Atlantic City succeeded in crossing our goal line in the first period for a touchdown, and after that neither team could score. Although the season could not be called an entirely successful one, neverthe- less. considering our lack of practice and the fact that Captain Koons was kept out of three of the games by a badly sprained ankle received in the Hahnemann game. VVilliamson was fairly well represented. In closing, I want to thank Mr. Logan, in behalf of the school, for his efforts in turning out a team to represent VVilliamson. Koons and I both extend our best wishes to Captain Byerly and' Manager Heebner for a successful season next year. RICHARD SCHWARTZ, Manager. J TEAM.

Early in March candidates A2 f Ki were called and about forty men responded. - 9 gi, - Captain McGrath was greatly handicapped in having only one of last year's varsity men with him. This was Faye, the fast '-. ,-' shortstop. 2 . On April 6 the team was selected for its initial contest to ti, oppose the graduating class of 1918. Although we were defeated is 7 ' Y 9 by the score of 8-4, we were better able to remedy our Weaknesses. The features of the game were the wonderful hitting and base- running of Irwin and Faye. The team then suffered a layoff of two weeks, due to unfavorable weather conditions. During this time we discovered in Lykens great possibilities as pitcher. In the next game. which was with Villanova Prep, the strength of the team was manifested by its perfect showing against such a strong combination. The game was full of thrills from beginning to end, the final score being 7-6 in our favor. The game was won in the tenth inning through clever base-running by Faye and a sacrifice Hy by Captain McGrath. The following week the Philadelphia Textile School team was defeated by the score of 8-2. Pennsylvania Institute for Deaf and Dumb was the next to bow before Lykens' masterful pitching. Again the score was 8-2, while our opponents got only four scattered hits from Mystery Max. The Alumni were then easily defeated in a very poorly contested gameg score, 5-2. Our war work interfered with our practice at this time to such an extent that we were compelled to abandon the small amount of practice we had been getting, which acoounted for the poor showing made by the team in the closing games. .-Xt George School we met defeat to the tune of 6-O, the whole team being unable to fathom Andrews' pitching. In the closing game of the season Girard College won from us, 6-1. due mainly to insufficient practice and lack of teamwork. The varsity men remaining for next season are valuable men, and under the leadership of Captain Faye the team should have a brilliant season. Both McGrath and I extend our heartiest wishes for a successful season next year. LYMAN SULOIPF, Manager. -J 4 4' Z an 7 -r Q. f 1 ff f :LX FF sz ,ff E CNY I xl-X K' N.

Coach Logan worked hard with the team, and by the follow- ? ing Saturday had the rough points polished upg so when we met the fast Chester High School team, which has made such a record 0 for itself against the high schools of this vicinity, we succeeded in defeating it by the close score of 20 to 19. fj Q QE :y ep We met the strong George School team on January 11 and Girard College on january 182 and were defeated by these teams with scores of 22 to 21 and 33 to 30. ' On january 25, we met the Tome School team and defeated it, 34 to 29. February 1, Norristown succeeded in defeating us, 33 to 24. February 8, the game with Wenonah Military Academy proved an easy vic- tory, the score being 30 to 18. Captain Robertson, a veteran of two years, is back in his old shape and is playing a wonderful game at forward. Lykens, a veteran of last year, is with us again in his position as forward. Kingsley, the big boy who made history for himself in his Freshman year, is covering center's position and can be counted on to get the plays off. Keller, who has come to us from last year's second team, is playing a wonder- ful game at guard and can be depended on to break up the plays under the basket. Byerly, a new candidate for basketball, is also showing up well at guard. Kcyton, who also was one of last year's second-team men, is making the boys work hard to keep their positions. Although this is Mr. Logan's first year as coach of basketball. he has devel- oped a team that will live in the basketball history of Williamson. We wish to thank Mr. Logan and the team for making this season such a success. CHARLES Rlcnrizn, Manager. Hi VARSITY BASKETBALI. TEAM, '1 Q' E O ,J i- 5 a lg vgg WILLIAMSON SCHOOL ll5 Elrark ARLY in March, the candidates for the track team were called out gi- and about thirty-live men responded. After live weeks of hard C he : , training the team was selected. The first date on the schedule, April 20, was a dual meet with Northeast High. of Philadelphia. VVe were defeated in this meet by a score of 53 to 46 points. This was a very interesting meet, the outcome not being decided until the last event had taken place. Keefer, who was then captain, was the particular star of the meet, scoring a total of 14 points. in Q 4 M' 1 o '- 0 l. Y l ' i 6 On May 4. we expected to hold a dual meet with Temple Uni- versity, but they canceled at the last minute, making it impossible for us to schedule another. ' Our next meet, May ll, was a dual meet with Girard College, and again we were defeated, the score being 46 to 26. In this meet we forced Girard to break four of its records in order to defeat us. May 25 was Alumni Day at VVilliamson, and we held a dual meet with a team composed of members of the Alumni, many of them being stars in track while here as students. Among them were some holders of the school records. Our team was in the best of condition and easily defeated them with a score of 55 to 17. ' On june 22, we closed our season with an interclass meet. The meet was won by the Class of '19, with 56 pointsg Class of '20 came next, with 39 pointsg then the Class of '21, with 4 points. In this meet two school records fell. Keefer ran the 100 yards in 9 4-5 seconds, beating Gramnfs record of 1906 by 1-5 second. The relay team of the Class of '19 lowered the time for the half-mile relay by 6 2-5 seconds. The class relay of the '16 Class held the record-, with the time of 1.38 2-5 seconds. Our team, consisting of Richter. Conner, Shugert, and Keefer, unexpectedly ran it in 132' 2-5 seconds. Owing to conditions at the school. the Penn relays and Strawbridge Sz Clothier meets were canceled. Keefer. Conner, Richter. and Shugert were the best short-distance men and deserve much credit for their good work. Fritz, Carver. and Dolby were valuable distance men who gave us points when most needed. Koons. Conner. VVichner. and Keyton held up their end in the jumps and field events. I extend to Captain Carver and Manager Fritz my best wishes for a success- ful season, with the hope that in future years track athletics may be brought to a higher standard at VVilliamson. - S.

Owing to war conditions, there was time for only a limited J 1 1 M amount of practice, the result being that a paramount team could ? not be developed. Our scheduled games were not all pl.ayed because of the Satur- day afternoon working reserve. 1 75. f Our first game was played at Williamson with Swarthmore t R Pneparatory School. We were unable to finish the match. owinff to a rainstorm. The score at the end of this period was 2 to 2. ' The next game was played at VVilmington Friends' School. VVe were beaten in a well-played game by the score of 3 to 2. Next year the tennis team should be a great success, owing to the fact that all of the varsity men are left but two, and with this to build on, a first-class team should be developed.
