Qedzbaizbn. Now rise from our last sweet careless night Together to set forth upon our way, Scarce can we read the shadowy road aright And but a moment have we still to stay. Yet tho' what path we fare at break of day Be lost in mists we may not penetrate, Know we: tho' far afield our feet may stray Ever wilh eaeh goes Yale and A!'z'ueLfy-ezlghi. Surely the turrets fade from out our sight, Howe'er our lingering footsteps we delay, Surely against the slowly fading light The elm trees dim into the distant gray, Nor shall the darkening shade our souls dismay Tho' at Youth's cross roads we must separate, This sure word shall the parting pain allay: Evfer 'with each goes Yale and Ninegy-ezlghl. For this is certain-aye, in Fate's despite,- Tho' sundered far the lands that We survey, Our common mother shall her sons unite In the fair bondage of her royal sway, Nor ever shall our loyal trust betray Whate'er the various journeys we await, But answers to the prayer we all must pray, Ever milk each goes Yale and Nz'ne01-ezghf. L'ENvo1. Brave Mother Yale, thy love shall last for aye, To thee our book and heart is dedicate, Nor shall we grieve o'er much while we can say Ever milk meh goes Ylzle andN1'1ze0f-ezghf.

Yes, said one of the younger members of Yale's faculty, settling him- self comfortably by the table in the Graduates' Club--that den of iniquity on Chapel Street- Yes, I've had a good many experiences with Freshmen in my time, as I've never been allowed to instruct any save Hrst year men dur- ing the past six or eight years. So, about four years ago, I thought I'd make a study of the genus and publish my researches in book-form, if the Faculty would let me. Are they printed yet? asked the sharp-featured Sheff. tutor in the corner. No-o, replied the instructor hesitatingly. The fact is I haven't shown them to the Faculty. Tell them to us, then, said the Sheff. man. That's what I started the conversation for, and he lit a cigarette with practiced ease. You see, the class which I started to observe,individually and generally, has been a peculiar one in many ways. So I wrote down such inci- dents as appealed to me, in a little book, all through the year. Ninety-eight started in at once in its own way and kept it up as long as I had anything to do with the Class. I remember the first instance of its peculiarity was brought to my notice when they had been under my charge but a few days. A little man called Jay appeared before my desk, after recitation one noon,and asked me if I could give him an account of the shore supper for the News. I of course told him at once the number of sick excuses I had received, and added kindly as a 'Log' that Henry P. Wright, '68, was in town. He thanked me and made Way for an austere looking fellow named E. Hale, I think, who invited me to help the Freshman committee at the Dwight Hall reception that night. I did so, and saw a great sight. Everybody was shaking hands with everybody else, and listening with open-mouthed wonder to opinions on 'Profs' and accounts of conditions 'pinched' and 'exams. flunked.' I entered it in my note-book as an instance of the absorbing interest taken by the stu- dents in the curriculum. Seniors never talk about anything else, interposed the Sheff. man. Yes, Isuppose that must be true, continued the instructor. ButI iind here under the heading of 'Ruffianism in our great universities,' a few II4 YALE '98 CLASS BOOK. notes on the Freshman foot-ball meeting. Let me see-'Speeches by Hinkey, Armstrong, Rustin and Hickok-Strong Anti-Andover feeling evi- dent-SZz'rrz'1zg nomination of another Hartford boy for manager'-Ah! here it is! After the election of Baylis as manager, the Sophomore Class entered Alumni Hall expressing their heart-felt yearning for 'a Greek speech from Werner,' and making their desire known to everyone in a some- what noisy way. The 'Freshies' gathered together behind an immense fel- low called Sawyer, and a prematurely old man whom his comrades humor- ously addressed as 'Cully. ' These two were evidently leaders of their Class. I noticed also a pair of huge bare arms attached to a California giant, well in the rear of the crowd. With such heroes in its ranks Ninety-eight could not be beaten. It charged in a body and the carnage was awful. Strong men were pushed hither and thither like so many human beings, and for a While victory hung in the balance. At last weight began to tell, and Sawyer and Bennett led their Class to the outer air without losing a man. I remember that I was greatly shocked at the time,and thought seriously of reporting the affair to the Curator of Grounds and Buildings. However, I finally set the matter down as a fine exhibition of class spirit at Yale, and proceeded to watch my charges at the coming foot-ball game with Harvard. Who was captain that year? An armored cruiser named Hinkey, whose minimum speed was about thirty-five knots. Ninety-eight had no men on the team except Letton, but the Class was there in a special car and made its presence felt all through the game. You may recall how Stillman made a touch-down after a few seconds' play, how Milliken of my Greek division led forty-three long cheers followed by seventeen 'Yales,' and how Harvard kicked a goal from the field some minutes after time was called. Twelve to four was the score, and it was the last Springfield game played between the two colleges. Kernochan and Schreiber, however, 'vindicated' Hinkey through the columns of the Nvws immediately after the contest, so that much hard feeling was avoided. Ninety-eight did its part nobly by marching through the streets of Springfield reiterating the indisputable statement that Yale had blue-stockinged men. How interesting, murmured the Sheff. tutor. Is it not? Well, a big foot-ball game is a great thing for the Freshmen. I remember well on the following Monday morning, what poor imitations Loewi and 'Fighting Dink Evans' gave of men translating 'Livy.' The Class did not make as much impression on the metropolis,at the Princeton game the following week, as it had upon the good people of Springfield. Hinkey and his team, however, made up for it and 'scored just twenty-four points more than Princeton did then or last fall. It was a dull, drizzly day, but Dolan FRESHMAN YEAR. 115 Clark formerly of Ninety-seven, seemed to keep his class-mates in the best of spirits by many quaint conceits and hard words. Later, news came from Cambridge that Little Captain Ely's men had defeated the Harvard Fresh- men. This was afterwards found to be untrue, because of a cruel inability on Yale's part to catch any of her opponent's punts. I suppose the Class settled down after that to study for the Christmas exams., said the listener. They never do in Sheff., but I suppose it's different in the Academic. Not at all, sir. Indeedg I find here a note on the 'Strange indifference to examinations shown eve11 by the smallest Freshman' The men seem to have spent their time with gay Sheff. stoodents ranging up and down York street, or in becoming better acquainted with Donnelly and Weiser, who entered college with them. Yes: I can still hear those gallant officers of the law speaking of 'that little rooster Garry,' and urging all comers to Write their names in the little book. Many's the time I've pored over those signa- tures, and tried to decipher them. The Class stood well in its Christmas exams. though, and I found one man, an auburn-h aired fellow, I believe, who actually tutored in his sleep and at all his meals to get through. I am told he keeps this up, still. A somewhat unusual thing, you know. But I must hasten on a little. Of course I cannot answer for the way the Fresh- men spent the Christmas vacation, but they certainly turned up again with rosy youthful faces in the early days of january, and proceeded to prepare for the Prom. concert at once. In this, they were greatly aided by Miss Par- dee's book on the 'Yale Man Up-to-Date,' and by Henry Rogers VVinthrop. Mr. Winthrop was the author and publisher of those comical cards that were thrown from the gallery during the Glee Club concert, in which there were playful allusions to Parker's warbling abilities and to Riddle's tonsorial developments. These bits of pasteboard and a Ninety-eight Yale flag, which Mr. Beard of Ninety-live vainly endeavored to seize,were the primary causes of the Freshman ball nine being prohibited from leaving town. I have the affair noted here as a 'jolly college romp,' although the Nrws, the next day, spoke of the Class as 'a gang of hoodlumsf Weren't the guilty ones spoken to by the Faculty? inquired the Sheff. man. Nog except indirectly through Principal Timothy Dwight, who lectured to the Class for four weeks on the necessity of employing every moment of its time profitably. He advised the men to put in every minute of their unoccu- pied time in reading, and I 'm sure his council was conscientiously followed, as there was at once quite a noticeable increase in the number of newspapers perused in morning chapel. 116 YALE '98 CLASS Book. Ninety-eight's physical interests now began to take precedence over her mental ones. My little friend Kernochan, and Scheftel, startedlto coxswain the University crew, and Captain Marsh organized his winning Freshman eight, which Bob Cook re-created in the last two weeks at New London. The base-ball nine, too, worked hard under the leadership of Bement, and of Turnbull, the best athletic candidate that ever entered Yale. Other men not so athletic became prominent through the columns of the college daily-one log I have here, for instance, reading, 'R. R. Hitt, '98, has returned to col- lege after an absence of about six weeks.' When did that appear? Once or twice every term, I think. You see, therefore, how some men became University characters even in their Freshman year. The Freshman Union was another easy road to fame, but in Ninety-eight it was athoroughly legitimate one, as her debating team won the first debate any Yale team ever won from Harvard. It was a famous victory, and was brought prominently to public notice by a brief note sent to the New York Harald by 'W. N. Vaile for the class of Ninety-eight! Let's have another cigarette, interrupted the Sheff. man, and hurry on with the story as it's getting late. All right, sir. First, a lot of statistics : Crosby, the boy-Gibson, makes the Ra-om'g jay, Mason, Peck, Gay and Lewis, the News, while Per- kins, Cheney, vanBeuren, Byers and others destroy quantities of cinder track for their alma mater.

The Freshies won the game by a score of rr to o, and their happy first baseman, son of Con- gressman Wadsworth, the base-ball magnate, threw his glove into the air repeatedly from boyish glee'- and so on for two columns. I have a note of the affair in my book entitled, 'Excessive love of the National game felt by the American boy.' This was the crowning point of Freshman year. From this victory the class gained an almost Sophomoric confidence, and in spite of the sours administered to it by the Ninety-seven Fence Orator, advanced to the june examinations with a proud feeling of triumph. Of course it won the Freshman race at New London. It couldn't help it when McLauchlan, a high-stand man in my Greek division, with a fearful and wonderful voice sang the Ninety-eight boating song, 'Row! Row! let the Harvard's row!' FRLQSHMAN X7EAR. I I7 and old Bob Cook, as a scientific experiment, made a fast crew out of eight struggling Freshmen, whom the courteous and considerate Captain Arm- strong turned over to him at New London. I was too busy correcting examination papers to watch the final change from Freshmen to Sophomores, but I am sure my charges did it in good -style, as they did everything else. And what did you gain from these observations of Freshmen? asked the Sheff. man, rising hurriedly to escape. A profound respect for the generation growing up around us, and a 'cruel attack of nervous prostration from which I have barely recovered. Spare the' rest of the faculty then and destroy that note-book. Good night! Good night. -and Rum Shop No. z66 was again as empty as the Voice that gave it this title. JULIAN S.

That's Cadwaladerg and there goes Borden. Ithink he owns six steam yachts. Whew! 'QS is a great class, ain't it. You bet! We heard snatches of conversation like the above wherever we went, and,. of course, we enjoyed it. It was a great thing in those days to be a Sophomore, and as we bundled back to college bag and baggage and rode up from the stati'on in hacks Qif the driver called us by name it netted him a dollar extral. We-V ought surely to have been excused if we felt our importance in exaggerated measure, for we had gone through the trials, troubles, tremblings, temptations, and tribulations of Freshman year, and blossomed into full-fledged Sophomores, with the original green mostly gone. The above by Way of introduction. The reader, unless he has plenty of time, and there are those who are unkind enough to say that we will never again have as much time as we have had in college, need only glance it over cas-r ually. The real history of Sophomore year begins right here. Our First duty was, of course, to demonstrate beyond a doubt our superiority to the incoming class, and we did this on the Grammar School lot, through the medium of the manly art of wrestling. Kellogg and O. M. Clark immortal- ized their names and soiled their trousers and fought draws with their oppo-- nents. We sat around and yelled and swiped caps from Freshmen Qwho were smaller than we werej, and took particular care to smoke pipes all the time. Most of us had learned to do it rather easily during the Summer. Then we- adjourned quietly and with becoming dignity, and as the News said, No- attempt at a rush was made. This, however, was chiefiy the fault of '99, There were a few other preliminary things before the college settled down. The reception to the Freshmen in Dwight Hall passed without much excite-W ment. Parker burst into song with considerable effect, and then we began to grow quiet and self-satisfied and feel how very glad we were to get back. We very soon gained enough nerve to turn down a subscription Bend, and occa- Sopaomona YEAR. . 1 1 9 sionally we took a Nezux without showing a ticket. When a new sofa pillow came we threw it on the window seat Without too much gushingg and, in fact, affected to be a little blase when occasions required. We sat in the front row of the Hyp. instead of in Nigger Heaven. All these things showed that we were more or less men of the world. We got over this later, and when we began to see things a little more clearly-but that is another storyg we were Sophomores now. We began to know each other a little better than we had the year before. When Borden brought a black horse with a bob-tail and a cart fourteen feet high from his stables in New York, and drove out to the Field at a twenty-mile clip, we looked on with approving nods. It was good to have some stars, and we mentally predicted great things for that man. What he did to immortalize- his name and his Class will be told later on. Foot-ball was now attracting the attention of the college and we heeled enthusiastically. The first home game with Brown found most of us on the- bleachers, though Allen and Metcalf came in a carriage with ladies. The score was only four to nothing, but we were satisfied. Against Brown we thought it was rather good as a starter. Marsh began to lay the foundation for his repu- tation as an oracle, which has ever since gained respectful attention to his honeyed words. We all agreed with his verdict that dere was de material for a winnin' team. This is the way they talk in Troy, and Swamp sometimes forgets himself and thinks he is on his native heath. A Everything was running along smoothly, and the moral tone of the college seemed to be excellent. We all fancied Yale to be a pretty good place to live in, when ,all of a sudden something struck us in the face, so to speak, our eyes were opened and we learned what a terrible place the University really was. Mrs. --, but never mind her name, proclaimed in clarion accents that Yale was not the only educational institution now existing, that there was another, of unpleasant name, but cheerful temperature, which she personally preferred. But we were not much discomfited. We lived through it, and anyway we never regarded it nearly as important as the Princeton game, which was close at hand. , On the 23d of November, appropriately armed with News extras, in which were printed pictures of everybody of consequence, we set out for New York. Some of us were loaded with money and some of us weren't, but a good many had more when they got back than when they started. It is impossible to describe the game. But when Captain Thorne ran fifty yards and scored the final touchdown, everybody embraced the nearest person, no matter who he- or she, was-and we weren't able to recite or otherwise freely articulate for a. week. Dink Evans attended without an overcoat, but he didn't catch cold. 120 YALE '98 CLASS BOOK. We were now rapidly approaching our semi-annual tribulations, the quick- sands in which so many of our bravest men have foundered, the Christmas exams. But we approached them with fine courage, and most of us were left to tell the story. Then we packed our trunks in haste, shouted good-bye to everybody in sight, and cleared out for home, all except Cadwalader and George Wallace, who, living in the antipodes, or some other place quite as hard to get to, stayed behind to see that things went well in New Haven during our absence. The vacation history of '98 is something that will have to be written by each individual, it need only be noted that doubtless We appeared rather large when we struck our native towns. But it has been remarked before that we were Sophomores. Q We came back early in january in the midst of a season of New Haven slush. It is reasonably safe to say this, though I don't altogether remember the dayg and snow and rain and hail, with now and then a judicious and pic- turesque mingling of mud, of course, we had for a good many weeks. Perhaps -during this time we got our best taste of college life as seen from your own room or some other rnan's. It was great weather to visit. T The Prom. and Germans, with the Glee Club concert, came at the usual time. We looked on with a blase air while '99 enjoyed themselves in the gal- lery and furnished amusement to the maidens present. Then those of us who 'had brought girls to the festivities cut our appropriate amount of ice in Warner Hall, while the rest of us adjourned to Traeger's and other places, and heroically played the parts of anti-fussers. The birthday of the Father of His Country found us right in line with high hats that might have been worn by the above-named gentleman himself. We marched around town and showed ourselves off to the admiring populace, and 'then assembled at the fence and had our pictures taken, so that we might have something to put in our scrap-books, We have been collecting scrap-book material ever since We have been here, and Stuart jackson says he would not know what to do without his when he indulges in his summer fussing. His valuable monograph entitled, The Scrap-Book as an Element in Love Affairs, may be profitably read by those who intend to take this sort of thing up permanently. ' February wore away and the winds of March chapped our hands and faces remorselessly. The crew took to the water and the ball nine was released from its cage. We sat and longed for Spring. When April came and with it the Easter recess we packed up and lit out with joyous hearts. Some of us got no farther than New York. Said men returned early. The metropolis hath its alluring charms, and hath many waiting channels for the money of the unwary. SOPHOMORE YEAR. 121 When the spring term began things were too inviting for study. We fdidn't do much of it, except Levy, and he had two men to get through instead of one. We watched the nine with critical eye, and once more took up our jaunting to the Field. That Yale lost the last Princeton game was due to the fact that most of us had gone home. We heeled the Fence, too, in appropriate style and smiled in a superior way when '97 yelled frantically upon various occasions, Take the Fence, '99! Take the Fence! But they only took it when we got down and moved up a peg. The great event of the term was without doubt the Sophomore and Fresh- man ball game, the success of which, altogether unparalleled in the history of the college, was due almost entirely to the administrative ability of one Borden. Mounted on a black charger of genuine Arab blood, and assisted by five other men on horseback, he led the '98 parade, which formed at the Grammar School lot, and was made up of a drum corps, a shooting corps, two artillery com- panies, drawing diminutive non-firing cannons, and the rest of the Class Wear- ing broadcloth hats and duck trousers. We marched in a roundabout way to the Field, where in the midst of much enthusiasm we lost the game to '99. But then that didn't matter, the demonstration was successful, and the name of Borden was on everybody's lips. Our college course was now nearly half over, and anxiously we waited the time when we should march out of Alumni clothed in the full dignity of juniors. We hadn't yet ceased to tremble at the sight of an examination sheet. and on the sly we sat up late to study, and our affected indifference to all exams. quite -disappeared when we met a classmate at the dog wagon at 3 A. M., when the following conversation might perhaps ensue: Hello, Cad. I-Iello.'? ' Been plugging? Oh, just looking over my Greek and fooling around a bit. Guess l'11 go back and go to bed now. So long. - So long. fCad retires and studies till seven o'clockj. But our period of promotion came at last. We walked out of the door of Alumni, wiping our pens on our coats, and slowly proceeded toward the Fence- but We had gone up a grade-it was the junior fence. Our Sophomore year was over. ' I. H. SCRANTON. zmzbr ff-vzr. Gladly did We gather our traps together and disembark from the train at. the cry of the brakeman, which familiarity had taught us meant New Haven. Our third year lay before us and we were eager to begin it. , The overweening haughtiness of Sophomore year had given place to quiet and subdued complacency by means of homeopathic medicines fpaternal sours and family bittersj administered in allopathic doses. Calmly we pushed through the clamoring sons of Jehu, not deigning to buy a hack, at la Freshman, or to haggle over the price, ei la Sophomore, and boarded that plebeian vehicle the trolley car, in which with the expenditure of five cents and a good deal of patience, we arrived at the Campus and scurried away to our rooms anxious to see what of our precious belongings had been left to us by those critical sons of sunny Africa, the sweeps. The usual rapid settling down to studious ways was somewhat retarded by that arch-disturber of peace the question ofrpolitics. Both sides of the question had many adherents, although the believers in the silver metal as a universal panacea were in a minority, numerically only, however, as they claimed the support of that inspired thinker, that volcano of eloquence, Billy Vaile. He was so generous with his views and arguments that finally a long-suffering friend suggested that silence was golden. Billy rejected the idea with scorn, he, for- sooth, would be no traitor to his cause. On the 25th of September the Freshmen had a chance to become acquainted at the Dwight reception with three members of our ne plus ulira class. They were: Dave Rogers, who won all hearts by his ingenious smile, Eddy Sawyer, who at the first glance was evidently a man of weight in the Class, L M. Will- iams, who until they saw how boldly and confidentially he chatted with Eddy, the Freshmen took for one of themselves. Needless to say the Freshmen were greatly benefited. That day was also noteworthy inasmuch as the Nezzfs was. given away gratis, the rush was unprecedented, two million copies were dis- posed of, further distribution being prevented by the temporary collapse of South Middle. Among the candidates for the Foot-ball team our Class was ably represented, such men as Jim Rodgers, Hazen and Ely going out. QN. B. At his request JUNIOR YE.AR. 123 we gladly call attention to the fact that Niftey Swift also represented the Class on the 'Varsity squad, in what capacity is not knownj. The first game of the season was won, but at what a loss! Cadwalader, the Class strong boy, while stopping the assault of the entire Trinity team was crippled and rendered useless for the rest of the season. The foot-ball year certainly started inaus- piciously. That careworn bunch of dyspeptics who practice self-denial at Commons to fit themselves for the struggle of life, were grievously disappointed at the outset of the year. Buck Perry, our class arbiter flegzmtmrum, was defeated for a place on the advisory committee, another rank case of mismanagement in the running of that maxillary gymnasium. ' Ninety-eight had a fair share of men in that aggregation of Heavenly Song- sters who contribute so largely to the general pleasure of the morning per- formance at Chapel. There was: Georgey Schreiber, who was induced for reasons unknown to leave German Opera to take the present high position, and who has the main qualification of a successful singer, namely unintelligibility. Brewer Eddy also was among the elect, his infinite knowledge with things celestial rendering him peculiarly fitted for the place. There were others, but to catalogue them and their characteristics would be too arduous a task, The Junior appointments revealed to the outside public what a brainy set of men we were, more men getting CD. B. K. than in any previous class for a very long time. On the whole they gave satisfaction, only a few philo- sophical oration men are heard to murmur that they ought to have received higher, and all the disappointments consoled themselves with the fact that they had enemies on the Faculty. Q Those who had the courage to risk being trampled on and of being arrested for inadvertently polluting the pellucid waters of Lake Whitney by the casting in of injurious pebbles and contaminating twigs, and went to the Fall Regatta, were rewarded by seeing 'Ninety-eight win it for the third time, incidentally breaking the record. The joy was so intense in the Class that Jay and Ketchum, after imbibing pop at Mory's for some time, went to I-Iarugari's and started to clean out the place. They had all but succeeded when a squad of policemen with night-sticks, after a terrific encounter, forced them to retreat. They were so enraged at this that they came up to the Campus and thrashed Donnelly and Weiser. On the 3ISt of October Mr. Roderick Terry, Esq., was elected captain of the golf team. This is mentioned because he asked to have his name brought into the history and this is the only place available, it is also well to add that he bore the honor modestly. Not to violate a time-honored custom of class histories, the phrase, Time 124 YALE '98 CLASS Book. skipped merrily on, is here inserted. It, Time, skipped with the usual accom- paniments, smokers, Dwight Hall games, Berkeley Association lectures, chess matches and all the other exciting pastimes that make college so pleasant until the 21st of November and then it stopped, for alas! Princeton proved too much for us at foot-ball and won her first victory in three years, The defeat was borne uncomplainingly, except by a few who had sought to increase their wealth with Princeton money and by means not commended by the church. The bitterness of the defeat was lessened a little while after, by hopes of next year's victory, caused by the election of jim Rodgers to captaincy of the team, the election caused universal satisfaction and pleasure. The near approach of the semi-annual exams. was heralded by the length- ened faces and worried looks of the usually most jovial of our classmates. Charley Burnett was actually seen running around the Campus in search of some one who had a digest, or rather a translation of Ladd's P. P., QPleasure Problemsj to give away. During the exams. the pressure became so great that even Merrill had to resign his position as editor of the Common's Menu and get to work. Looking sleek and Well-fed the majority of the Class showed up january 5th, to renew the labors necessitated by existence here. The members of the Glee and Banjo clubs alone looked haggard and used up. jimmy Wadsworth especially looked worried and fagged out, for he had been pursued throughout the trip by a spinster lady, whose heart had been pierced by glances from those effulgent blue orbs of Jim's, and whose senses had been charmed by the melody of his voice. january 25th, petticoats appeared on the horizon. The Prom. festivities or tortures, just as you look at it, had begun. High hats and frock coats were now in order, with the uncomfortable feeling that usually attends the donning' of one's Sunday-go-to-meeting clothes. Sweaters and slouch hats were tabooed, and those ,who had the temerity to defy conventionality by wearing them, slunk along with guilty countenances. Among the many surprises of that period, one of the greatest was the sudden miraculous broadening of Schef- tel's shoulders as seen in a frock coat, his tailor is to be complimented. I The Prom. itself was a great success, everyone had a good word for it, from the simply gorgeous of the younger sister, to the very creditable indeed, of the older sister, who ought to have known, as she had been to-but that's nobody's business. All that went enjoyed themselves immensely, even Twichell forgot for once his many cares and was seen to smile. As for Harry Butler he was as happy as a clam at high tide. He had to split so many dances however, that he was exhausted and had to spend several days in bed to recuperate. JUNIOR YEAR. 125- There were a few unpleasantnesses of course. Roger Winthrop was mis- taken for a waiter by an unsophisticated damsel, who certainly couldn't have come from New York City. Toss Bennett while discoursing eloquently to a portly dowager on the important benefits derived from close attention in the class room, sat down with more than his usual abandon on rather a frail couch and broke it, causing considerable consternation. Such little accidents as these however, failed to mar the enjoyment of the best Prom. within the memory of man. - Shortly after the Prom. another Yale custom was laid on the shelf, the glorious day of prayer was forever abolished. Such indignation was aroused in the Class over it, that two members of our primary department, Bobby Neal and Garry Garrison were delegated to see the Faculty and beg them to restore that much needed Day of Rest and Recreation, but not even their cherubic, tear-stained countenances and infantile graces could move those stony hearts. When they failed the college gave up in despair. From '98, the Lit, that noble incentive for Freshmen to learn to spell, so that some day they may be its editors and know what Dum mem gnzia mallet, etc., meansg got five Worthy men, namely: Pop Baldwin, whose stories of beautiful Hawaiian maidens must have been written with the view of causing immigration to those favored shores, Dave Burrell, who it was said took lessons from his sweep, undoubtedly a New Englander, in aboriginal negro dialectg Gouverneur Morris, who notwithstanding a chronic state of indisposition made it, the Lit, with great ease, Neddy Streeter, whose able pen, sketches for us pathetic pictures of the Chicago street urchin's life, Frank Lord, last but not least, Whose merit is testified to by his election as chairman. The editorial staff of the Courafz! was enriched by the addition of Merrill, Kennedy and McLane, three geniuses if there ever were any. A great many thought, however, that McLane on account of his temperament, was more suited for the 164:01-ai College interest in things nautical was greatly revived by the formation of a half-rater Hotilla. Charley Goodwin, a most expert old salt, was the prime factor in the move. He succeeded in interesting Hi Bingham, whose wide experience with dug-outs in the South Pacific, was of great help to him, Hi, in winning the cup. E. Howe, Julien Ripley and others, who had acquired great skill in the sailing of toy boats fell in with the scheme and eagerly purchased the roomy crafts, anxious to show the admiring public that what they didn't know about sailing Wasn't worth knowing. ' About the middle of March a certain crowd of youths of our illustrious Class, not satisfied with worshiping at the shrine of Minerva solely, thought they would extend that Worship to Mars, in consequence they sent a Yale flag 126 1 YALE '98 CLASS Book. to a certain brainy exponent of the manly art of self-defense. Accompanying the Hag was a letter in which they said that Yale was with him and hoped he would win. Now it was very thoughtful of them to thus quietly elect them- selves representatives of Yale, and to express her opinion on such a worthy subject, but somehow or other it Wasn't appreciated, those things never are, and instead of being thanked by the faculty for their worthy action, they were much to their surprise, censured by that august body. Some foolish persons even went so far as to brand the affair as silly in the extreme and harmful to the college, but then virtue must ever be its own reward. The letter caused a sensation in that its originators were successful, for a week the usual quiet of this academic retreat was replaced by turmoil and excitement, irate alumni were sending violent denunciatory letters by the score to the over-worked editors of the News, the daily papers of the country seized the incident with wolfish avidityg altogether there was what might be called a warm time, a little too warm, in fact, for the originators of it all, for although they made brave attempts at appearing nonchalant and at ease, the canker worm of per- turbation was evidently gnawing away within them. The one result of the whole thing was that there were thirteen wiser men in college after it was over than before. Towards the end of May, that month in which every lusty heath beginneth to blossom and to bring forth fruit, the Spring Regatta came off with great eklai. Besides the class crews several aggregations of oarsmen called scrubs, '? .also participated. The importance of the occasion will be noted when it is stated that Bill Loewi wore a shirt, his sweater never being discarded except for gala events like Regattas and Sunday Chapel. Of the features of the day, barring Montgomery's, the most interesting one was the race between '98 and 1 goo. The latter won. The cause of our defeat, it was rumored,was that the reflec- tion of the sunlight from Swamp Marshes' noble but bald crown was so strong .as to dazzle the other members of the crew, thereby causing them to lose the stroke, and in consequence the race. The excitement was so great during the race that it made 't Dink Evans light-headed and he fell in the lake, and on being rescued was very nearly arrested for spoiling the water-that certainly was adding insult to injury. The contest between the Coystrels and Gentleman's Eight was well worth -seeing, and those few that had the time to wait to see them finish, carried home some new ideas about rowing. Every variety of style was shown from Mul- lalley man-o-War's man's to Fitch's gondolier's. The Coystrels won, as Hitch- cock's wholesale smile announced to everyone who saw him that evening. The members of the defeated crew were incensed at Lou Williams, who they said insisted on bowing to all his lady friends along the shoreg this took up so much JUNIOR YEAR. 127 of his time that he frequently forgot to pull, to which negligence the defeat is attributed. The successful management of the Base-ball Association was insured by the election of Frank Simmons as its president, Schreiber was elected leader of the Glee Club, Sid Kennedy, who is able to get music out of everything from a poker chip to a church organ, was appointed president of Banjo Clubg Ed. Sawyer was thought to be the best man to keep the youngsters on their good behavior during their tours, so he was made managerg Gren. Parker was called upon to manage the affairs of the Navy, his knowledge of rowing will help him some no doubtg Swift was elected president of the Track Team, amidst the uproarious applause of his suitg Bassett captured the Junior exhibition prize with a very good essay admirably delivered, jack Woolsey's election to the presidency of the University Club was a great surprise to many, they didn't know he was a member. Princeton beat us at base-ball, Cornell at rowing, thus making complete the hard luck of the year, indeed, if it hadn't been for Billy Peck's Basket-ball Bruisers, who in that line upheld Yale's supremacy, the athletic side of the year would have been sad, very sad. Apart from athletics, the year was a very successful and enjoyable oneg in it the joys and pleasures far outweighed the sorrows and disappointments. During it we became acquainted with Ladd and his merry jestsg we were able to run a bill with Abe. We were known by our first names to Donnelly and Weiserg we penetrated the austereness of Hotch- kiss and found out what a humorist he really isg we fully mastered the dialect of Simmg and last and best, we got to know each other better, acquaintances became friends, friends became chums, and those ties were formed which will forever bind us to that most genial old soul--St. Elihu. J. R. PAXTON, ja. elubr Mar. As Gouverneur Morris very aptly puts itz- Assembled from the long vacation, The 'stoodents' gather at the station, With canes and bags and dress suit cases, And very glad-to-see-you faces. All day Wednesday they came drifting back singly, by twos and threes and in clusters. Of course there were lots of new facesg but then chance and change are busy ever. The old town didn't look quite familiar Wednesday morning, but when in the afternoon I happened to be passing Mr. Traeger's establishment and upon glancing up at the front window discovered the smiling countenances of Charles Burnett and Finger Wadsworth, doing business at the old stand, I realized that college had really begun. These two well-known figures had become in my mind as much a part of the landscape of that resort as the very emblazoned sign itself. In front of the New Haven House quite a crowd of Seniors were assembled. High life Hitt, resplendent in garments of foreign make, waslook- ing as gentle and dapper as of old, much to the consternation of Freddie van- Beuren, who had made a special effort to be leading lady in respect to raiment on this occasion, and was still forced to acknowledge that he was a few points shy, and was accordingly taking notes assiduously. The stereotyped Glad to see you back, old man, and Did you have a good summer? gradually ceased, on the approach of each new arrival, and conversation centered around the prospects of the eleven and the illness of jim Rodgers. The wise ones from the West brought the encouraging news that Great Otis was on the high road to recovery and would soon be on hand to lead the 'Q Boys in Blue. Toward evening the question was asked, Who will lead the procession to the wrestling? The duty, in the absence of Big jim, naturally fell upon Frank Bush-P. Whit., I should say-I never could get that man's name straight. The ogre assumed a boisterous leadership, but it proved to be a case of the blind leading the blind, for when the procession had proceeded as far as Sheff., Mr. Whitney turned to his companions and inquired: Say, fellows, Where is the Grammar School lot, anyway? SENIOR YEAR. 1,9 The next morning college opened academically at chapel, and the Class of '98 never attended that exercise before in such numbers, nor at such an early hour, each one planning in his heart to personally constitute himself the van- guard of his particular pew. This resulted in many rubbers During the following days the scrub crews were busy at the harbor and Lake Whitney for the fall regatta, and the new bleachers in process of con- :struction attracted many to the practice on the gridiron. At this juncture Captain Rodgers appeared upon the scene, a little the worse for wear, but still in the ring, and took charge of the foot-ball squad, and the improvement all along the line became evident from the moment of his advent. Several of the minor foot-ball games having been played with varying fsuccess, the all-absorbing question became, What can we do with Harvard? .Some said, We won't do a thing. Others were more conservative. Special cars were engaged for the game at Cambridge, among them the 'H Corbett Club's special, Van Sinderen Lindsley, cook. Yale struck Boston 'early in the evening and the following morning joined the river of humanity which Howed steadily toward the scene of the coming conflict. By two o'clock the stands were filled, Harvard confident and exulting, occupying the south stand, while the wearers of the blue, under the leadership of Seth Milliken, cheered for their representatives loudly and hopefully from the north side of the field. Space and ability forbid me to attempt to describe the great game Lof November 13th at Cambridge. It will go down in the history of foot-ball forever. Harvard's mad rush for the victory on the four-yard line, and Yale's -defense in the face of almost overwhelming odds, so fierce that for four succes- zsive downs the wearers of the crimson were hurled back with a total loss of twelve yards. It was a struggle the remembranceuof which will linger in the memory of every Yale man who saw it. i The week following was a busy one. Every Yale alumnus who knew aught of foot-ball lore and who was available, was summoned to put the finish- ing touches upon the team for the approaching game with Princeton. The Princeton contingent arrived on the 19th, and the morning of the zoth 'brought such crowds that standing room was at a premium in the old town by noon. Skillful handling at the hands of the Yale coachers had wrought wonders during the week, and had now placed a team in the field against Princeton, in some respects, perhaps, the most wonderful team which ever ,guarded the Yale goal. The story of that game is well known to all. Prince- 'ton over-confidently held the blue in low esteem, and the first half showed honors almost even. At the beginning of the second, however, it became evident that the Tigers were slowly but surely passing away. Man after man was car- ried from the Princeton side, and inch by inch their substitute eleven was 13o YALE '98 CLASS Book. pushed down the field. Their line was crossed and the goal kicked, shortly before time. It was a wonderful victory for Yale and a severe blow to Prince- ton, but they bore it manfully, as they always do when defeat comes their way. Captain Rodgers and modest joe Hazen, the only two academic Seniors on the- eleven, proved a credit to '98 and to the University at large, and saved and made many a yard for Yale. The college now settled down to await the Christmas recess. At this- juncture Mull Mullally had the fancy decorations of the honorable legion of Farmington conferred upon him, but as Mull is of a retiring disposition, he- wishes no more said on the matter. The Yale-Harvard debate was decided in favor of the former, the balance of proof being ably thrown on the right side by Bert Fisher. Messrs. Hamill and Delano made skates Qrollersj popular, and could be seen almost any afternoon, weather permitting, swinging grace- fully about the Campus, stopping now and then to greet a classmate or to render that charming little ballad entitled, Skate, skate, stake upon the roller skateg Get careless, or you'll see the stars above. The term could not Well be started until the story of the Glee Club trip- had been told, approved, and laid aside. Emie's crowd of cheap commu- tation croakers had invaded the great far West and reported that music had charms to soothe the savage breast. The character of the organization throughout the trip savored strongly of the Teutonic, with Schreiber, Schultz, andibeer as prominent features. The quartet was everywhere received with cheers, yells, howls, and even with snorts. This was the last appearance of the world-renowned Mr. Parker, the passionate baritone, Harry, the sym- pathetic tenor, and McLauch, the Sixth Ward shouter, all of whom proved howling successes, ably assisted by Sid's string-snitchers, and Wads. as. funny man par excellence. V T Before Scott had a chance to restore the many dilapidated evening clothes to their pristine glory, the Junior Prom. was upon us. Doc. Metcalf's face- fairly beamed at the prospect, and during the next two weeks Tom Allen failed to pass under the arch hat-box in hand. Everything seemed to be coming their way. Del Hay consented to stop in town, at least every other day during this time. The usual band of camp-followers of the Prom.-relics of former grandeur-were early upon the ground telling of conquests past and projects for the present, so the affair gave promise of being a marked success. And it was a successg who shall essay to describe it? The equilibrium of the college was soon restored, but to Charles Burnett and Levy the Prom. had proved but a mere incident, and these two worthies SENIOR YEAR. ISI -continued to dance with renewed vigor, giving a practical working illustration of how far a pair of borrowed trowsers and two right-handed gloves can be made to go. The circuit of the towns of Connecticut was successfully made by Little 1-Garry and t' Ash Fitch, who reported all quiet in the outlying districts. The candidates for the crew and the base-ball teams were early called out, and the extreme clemency of the weather made practice at the harbor and Field possible at a date almost unprecedented. Things were moving along finely until Poor Heine Streeter foisted False Dawn upon the university. Then the gray days came again. This ungentle b01lf67lf7'J't.'lll6lIl' of the college cosmos might perhaps have been expected,-but then Heine is such a dilettant, you know. And we had a Log Burning, too, yes, indeed--a regular old-fash- ioned log burning. Of course Stin Borden fled, and perhaps it is just as well, as otherwise there might now be no II Vanderbilt. Once more the sun shyly peeped out, perhaps fearing that it might again be accused of being a transient light, and this time shone full upon the suc- cessful settlement of the much-discussed Beers-Chamberlain English Contro- versy, which had been satisfactorily adjusted by a few well-selected and timely .suggestions from Messrs. Merrill and Kennedy funlimitedj. As the equinoctials approached, Jule Mason was observed to lose color and Weight, causing some Worriment to those who had the little fellow's interests at heart. Bill Hale and the College Waker, however, dispelled all idle fears, not only assuaging anxiety, but predicting a radical improvement in the health and appearance of the aforementioned young gentleman. Even though Spring had not arrived in reality, yet the reappearance of Bordy, endeavoring to attract attention by what he considered to be reckless driving, reminded us all that the season of fresh green things was at hand. -So also did the call issued by Rigo Terry for his turf-teasers to appear upon the links. The work of overhauling Commodore Clark's scow was pushed for- ward with vigor, and gave the owner more solicitude and topics for conversa- 'tion than did the launching of the battleship Kentucky to the Federal au- thorities. For some time the Kernochan-jay feud had been brewing and finally as- sumed more material proportions than words under the auspices of the Lyceum Athletic Club, which kindly tendered to the little fellows the use of its build- ing and apparatus. An early start was planned, but the mill could not be pulled off until an early hour in the morning owing to the enthusiastic crowd which was unable to be accommodated at the box-office. Swamp Marsh .acted as referee and gave the principals to understand at the outset that he X32 YALE '98 CLASS Book. was on the level and would have the thing done rightg while Archie Harri- son, clad in the resplendent garb of an announcer, told those occupying the boxes the past records and future hopes of the combatants. The details of the famous Kernochan-Jay n1ill are familiar to all. The chief landmarks which characterized the affair were Freddie's whirlwind startg the referee's unerring eye, the lucky third-when John received his quietus, and the departure of Mr. Scheftel-who had entered upon a deadhead's ticket-from the arena, at the request of the ushers. The Easter vacation was now at hand and collegiate attention was turned toward the probable make-up of. the ball nine. Every one was glad to see joe Hazen on the third bag, and the many admirers of james W. Wadsworth, jr., were delighted to see that he had at last realized his fondest hope. He now keeps theroad house at the first corner, and every one journeying that way is anxious to gain shelter at his hostelry. Mine host has ever a cheery word for' the traveller, Whether he has accommodation for him or not, and it is the general opinion that he is a genial fellow and keeps a first-class establishment. His resort is bound to be popular. Morton Fearey, more popularly known as 't Chopper, had a choice Spring assortment of twisters and benders up his sleeve. I understand that he is pre- pared to serve from the old stand, bunches of beauties, both fi Za cam' and lable d'hote, to suit the most aesthetic tastes of his patrons. His business- appears better since he has dispensed with his pretzel bakery of last year, and it is expected that he will be quite a much by the end of the season. After the vacation We had War, and war makes history, it has been said. Of course, in the hour of need none sprang to the front with greater avidity than Mandeville Mullally, who it will be remembered had been decorated at Farmington some months previous. Next came Fighting Dave Twichell, and together these two warriors opened a recruiting parlor. The wide experience which these gentlemen were known to possess in the use of delicate mechanism made them eminently well fitted to lead and manipulate a pair of the new and complicated Colt's lead squirts. Already Mull. stepped like a veteran and Dave, remembering the burglar episode of a year ago, swelled with pride. Among the others who inflated balloons or blew bubbles--for the scheme of the above-mentioned gentlemen proved to be of such a material--were Cully Kernochan and john Lockman. Of course, the bravery of the first-mentioned. could not be doubted. Could the vanquisher of a jay be a craven? Be that as it may, the fact remains that one morning the college world was amazed at the gigantic silken structure which Fred had inflated during the preceding night. The vast bag with its network of cordage swayed to and fro above the heads of the admiring throng, like a thing alive. The daring aeronaut announced that SENIOR YEAR. 133 he would make the ascension that afternoon. He stated as his platform the welding of the masses with New York's lower five thousand--of which latter band he is a member. All wished the brave little chap God-speed as the last guy-ropes were severed. Some said as he floated up into the vast blue vault, He will never return. Others said nothing. This happened in the after- noon. When those first astir the following morning looked out upon the Campus they were surprised. A few shreds of silk and tangled ropes was all that remained of man's inventive genius of the previous day, and from the ruins a much-bruised balloonist crept forth, none other than Freddie Kerne- chan, of rr Madison square, north. This was called the Troop Ascension. Meanwhile john Lockman was not idle. Feeling the war spirit strong within him, he severed the last bonds. That's what he thought. After drill- ing for the space of one weekiin the C. N. G., at the Armory, he was brought to his senses by the powers that be. Now he knows how to handle a gun, anyway. He has written and published a charming little leaflet entitled, Parachuting with john, or, Personal Experiences of the War. In connection with war topics I must not forget to mention the fusilade which the news of the battle of Manila brought forth. Govey Morris started the sub- calibre practice, greatly to the endangering of life in his immediate vicinity. The fire spread rapidly, and Reynolds Hitt, hearing the noise, asked the trusty Del. if he really believed the Spanish fleet could be shelling the city, while Stew jackson, waking from dreamland, started to move his worldly goods toward the interior. The balmy breezes of the spring led many to the Yacht Club, which had moved its quarters to a trim cottage near its former site. The Athletic Association, under the able management of Ichabod Swift, was at last able to hold its Spring meeting, which had been postponed by the inclemency of the weather. However, Zack did not complain, remarking that he could have everything else made to order. Thus the beginning of the end draws perilously near. The athletic out- look seems at this writing to be the brightest. 'Ninety-eight leaves the Uni- versity better in every way than she found it four years ago, and perhaps we may be pardoned for saying that we deserve 'a good share of the credit. Times of parting are usually sad, but what is the use of making a funeral of it? Our last days at Yale should be our happiest, although the prospect of the long drop from the top of the college to the bottom of the world is not reassuring, to say the least. When the Baccalaureate Sermon has been preached and all's said and done, and the degrees are passed around, you may ask, What have we here? Doubtless some will be surprised and may justly ask that question. To them and to all I would Say: Gentlemen, you have there a certificate for 134 YALE '98 CLASS Book. four fand maybe fivel of the happiest years you ever have spent, or Will spend, the years of your lives to look back upon as the best, the years spent 'Neath the Elms with '98, As some poet has said: , Tl1ere's always another to take your place, Lover, or prince, or peerg And die you to-morrow, your mcmory's grace Will live but a day or a year. This is very true, and gentlemen, as we are going out--and we must con- fess that We are--there is but one thing left to do, and that is-if I may be pardoned for using at the last a good old '98 expression--to smoke up.

In Freshman, year we read the Odyssey, Books V-VIII, COURSES selections from Herodotus and the Apology and the Crito of Plato. In Latin we read Livy, Books XXI and XXII, and Cicero on Friendship and on Old Age, and later the Satires of Horace. For Mathematics we studied Chauvenet's Solid Geometry, Dana's Mechanics and Wentworth's Trigonometry. In English we read three plays of Shakes- peare and had a rapid reading of Brooke's English Primer. 138 YALE '98 C1.Ass Boox In Sophomore Year Prometheus Bound, Iphigeneia at Tauris, Antigone, and The Frogs sufliced for Greek g and in Latin the Odes and Epodes of Horace and some of Terence's insipid plays are green in our memory. The mathe- matically inclined had aturn at Graphic Algebra, Spherical Trigonometry and Analytic Geometry. In English we read some of Shakespeare's plays and had a generous smattering of most of the eminent English writers from the time of Spenser. In junior and Senior years we studied what pleased our fancy, with some limitations. The ridiculous policy of enforced psychology still prevailed to the almost universal disgust of the Class. In the opinion of Ninety-eight our easiest year was junior with one hun- dred and seventeen votes, Senior polled ninety, Sophomore twenty-three, and Freshman seven. Our vote for hardest year was as follows: Freshman, one hundred and thirty-five, Sophomore, sixty-sixg Senior, twenty-seveng Junior, fifteen. Pleasantest-Senior, one hundred and eighty-threeg junior, forty-six, Freshman, thirteeng Sophomore, ten. Disagreeable-Freshman, two hundred and nineteeng junior and Sopho- more, thirteen, Senior, one. Our hardest required studies are: Mechanics, with fifty-three votesg Freshman Mathematics, thirty-sixg Psychology, forty-six, and Greek, forty- five. Most useless required study: Psychology and Philosophy, in one form or another, have a just monopoly of this vote. Most valuable required: Mathematics has forty-two votes in this con- nectiong English twenty-seven and Physics twenty-six. Most difficult elective: English Constitutional History leads with forty- four votes, followed by Mediaeval with thirty. ' Easiest elective: American Literature has an overwhelming vote of ninety. The next is American History with thirty-five. Most valuable elective: Economics enlists seventy-three votesg European History forty-tvvog English Constitutional,thirty-seven. A Pleasantest required elective: European History leads with thirty-nine. Dr. Phelps' American Literature most highly pleases thirty-five, and Law finds greatest favor with thirty. Should elective system be extended to all classes? Forty-two men say yesg ninety are opposed to itg seventy-eight are in favor of its extension to Sophomore year. Thus one hundred and twenty men of the two hundred and ten voting are in favor of a further extension. Tl1e votes for members of the Faculty in their several specialties are: EnUCA'r1oN.A.L. 139 Popular-W. L. Phelps ninety-one, G. B. Adams twenty-two, A. T. Hadley twenty-two, Dean Wright eighteen, Phillips fifteen. Pleasantest-W. L. Phelps eighty-seven, Phillips twenty-seven, Hadley twenty. Most polished-Wheeler seventy-one, W. L. Phelps twenty-one, E. J. Phelps nineteen. QBy far the greater part of the votes were submitted before Mr. E. 1. Phelps had addressed the Class.-Ed.j Brightest-Hadley one hundred and nine, W. L. Phelps forty-eight, Fisher seventeen. Best teacher-G. B. Adams sixty-six, Fisher thirty, Phelps twenty, Wheeler twelve, Perrin twelve, Sumner eleven. i Most difficult to recite to-Richards fifty-four, Fisher forty-seven, Goodell twenty-live. Easiest-Phillips twenty-five, Kitchel twenty, C. H. Smith twenty. Hardest to Bluff-Fisher fifty-eight, Richards forty-eight, Beebe eighteen, Chittenden seventeen. Although Easiest to bluff was one of the questions given to the Class it seems best not to count the vote. The editor has seen too many silly fel- lows boast of their ability to bluff a professor when the instructor's clemency and the grace of God were more inportant factors than the inane attempt of the bluffer. Have you ever used a trot? provokes the airiest mirth. One man never looks at them, and two others never had subjects to be aided thereby. On the whole the Class uses them. In regard to the Honor System the Class seems permeated with a rare degree of good sense. More watchers! is the utilitarian cry from almost every one, and a good one it is. In closing comes the popular regret of the Class-failure to study enough. About a hundred men feel this strongly enough to pronounce it their greatest regret. Those who study professions will have a chance to remove the canker, and it is hoped the others will find their Key of Gold in such spheres of humdrum as accident and inclination have allured them. afderary Ekiory. A competent judge has said that the Class of '98 is more remarkable than :any class of recent years, for its broad and general literary interest. Our pre- decessors, each and all, in their class-books have claimed to have produced the most distinguished editorial boards. Our title to fame is a broader, prouder -one, for we do not search out an isolated genius or two, and, placing him on a pedestal, say: Behold our prodigy! but rather do we modestly quote Mr. Clough: About the individuals not so clear, But who can doubt our general atmosphere? And as to this general atmosphere, witness the extraordinary prosperity -and activity of our literary clubs, the French Club, the Kipling, and the Ste- venson, whose norm lZlllbl'0.S'Z.!lllfL' rival those spent by Wilson and the convivial literary lights of old, witness the bookishness of our eating-joint conversation 'fsurely Mull's with its Marsh should go down in history beside Will's with its Drydenj. And I would mention here the mysterious Glassy Eye organization, said to be devoted to the interests of Miss Laura jean Libby, the Schiller Club, the Lost Digamma Qfounded for a Holy Quest, having learned by an ancient legend that the digamma once fell into a wine Cask, from which it was never rextricatedj, and last, but not least, the famous Corbett Club, authority on pugilistic literature, classical and modern. As to editorships, we may divide a class's history into two distinct periods. The first is an anxious time when you spend vast sums of money having vol- umes of stuff typewritten, all of which with trembling heart you thrust in at the door of the Lit. or Cow-arzl, whereupon you go home to dream all night -of bodies and portfolios, and, waking in the morning, you examine the mail with all sorts of emotions, That postal: Mr. --, your contribution to the Lit. fbodyj, entitled ----, has been accepted, is a most proud and happy affair to the young Lil. heeler, and his innocent exultation when he tells you all .about it becomes a mockery and a reproach to his merely athletic friend. Then there comes a very different time, when you have assumed the exal- tation of editorship. Now you are a great autocrat, and with much condescen- sion you offer advice to numerous humble heelers, of whose importunities you LITERARY HISTORY. 141 complain bitterly to your friends, in order that they may observe your great- ness. During this period you develop the accomplishment of bluff to the high- est known perfectiong and indeed there is no pleasure equal to that of resting On a quite unwreckable, most impeccable literary bluff, surely a far more artistic performance than the mere sporting bluff, or even that of a successful sick excuse. There is only one shadow on this otherwise halcyon period of editorship: they make you go out and get subscriptions, and they insist, be- sides, that you pay your share for last year's banquet. And then, if you are a Lzt. editor, once in a while, having nothing to say, you have got to write a lot of drivel which they call a leaderg if you are a Courant editor, a man is always coming around to tell you that he has got to have a story before night, if you are a News editor, you must sit up until all hours apportioning credit among hundreds of enthusiastic heelers, and you must, having nothing else to say, write editorials imploring attendance at lectures and concerts lno one ever saw a News editor at eitherj, or attacking the Corbett Clubg and even the light- hearted Ifeeora' editor must occasionally cease his drolleries to toss off a few lines to Dorothy's Eyes, or something of that sort, which will be printed beside a dreadful misrepresentation of Dorothy's features. But take it all in all the sorrows of editorship are few,and, especially if there are dividends, the joys many. Our first News heelers set to work, I believe, before college opened in Freshman year. The News heeler is the greatest Yale mystery, perhaps the greatest Yale crime, for why should these innocents be allowed to waste their life energies on a business like this? Why do they do it? The most subtle psychologist could not tell you. Yet I firmly believe that until the end of time they will still be swarming about the campusf imploring you to sign innumer- able logs, polite, ubiquitous, untiring. The genius of Morris and Merrill was still undreamt of, when Peck, jay, and Mason reaped the reward of their indefatigable labors in February of Freshman year, when they became our first News editors. Shortly afterward we were all startled by Herbert Gallaudet's success with his Lit. story, The Senator, whereupon the rest of us set enviously to work to such effect that the unfortunate editors of '96 groaned aloud. Meanwhile McLane's love tales had secured him a Courant editorship, Crosby's artistic talent had made him our first Record editor, and Lewis and Gay had been taken on the News. In the fall of Sophomore year Scranton, having composed the following immortal couplet: My sweetheax-t's eyes are fair and blue, I love my dear old Burgundy fpronounced dooj. was immediately adjudged worthy of a Record editorship. Then Morris and Kennedy were taken on the Courant, which, about this time, being in the hands I42 YALE '98 CLASS BooK. of the inimitable Munger, began to take on its present vivacious and up-to-date character. The Ld. people were now getting fairly into the race, some two or three forging ahead, however, after a most unpleasant manner. Burrell was showing us how well he knew the hidden places of the darkey's heart, and Book and Cook and t' Nodes Am!1ra.vz'ame brought Morris and Lord forward into the positions they have maintained fairly well since, the one that of our skillfulest teller of tales, the other Qwhen he takes the troublej that of our most creditable essayist. At the enduof the year Burlingame had made the Ifecord. Dave Rogers and Fred Williamson, having toiled bravely for six months, had been announced by the .News at Christmas out of many the successful can- didates, and in the spring john Rogers and Henry Smith secured the same honor. In junior year, until February, the fight for the Lil. waxed hot and furious, and extremely uncomfortable for every one excepting the four who were popu- larly described as cinched. Bob Archbald and Charley Hine, formidable candidates, while they seriously tried, stepped aside and let the rest of us scramble for last place. The Class in February elected Lord, Burrell, Morris, Streeter, and Baldwin, who in turn elected as chairman Lord. 'Courant editor- ships had been given to Wickes, Merrill, and Baldwin, who, with the editors already elected, voted Wickes chairman. The fremrri, after electing Delano, Howes, Rhodes Qauthor of the immortal Ballad of the Gym. Lockeruj, Hins- dale, Hamill, and jackson, chose as chairman Crosby, who had done every- thing for the paper in the way of illustration. The Nezzfs elected Mason chair- man, and now, removed from the wrangliugs of competition and politics, the various college papers were ushered upon the new period of '98 control. That it has not been an entirely glorious period we cannot deny, although We can plead the ancient excuse, which is no excuse at all, that we could have been oh, so brilliant! if we only would. One paper, however, has a record with which '98 should be justly content. The Courant, rescued from the mire by the '97 board, has in the hands of '98 improved steadily. On this paper the editors do not cease all work as soon as they have obtained their charms, and the result has been a stimulus to writing in Senior year which I can hardly be- lieve existed before the time of the Courant? regeneration. For its prosper- ous '98 career all honor to Chairman Wickes, and of its writers, especially to those who have given it such excellent verse, namely, Merrill, Kennedy, and Morris. In the Winter term of Senior year Merrill, Gallaudet, and Hine were given elections to Chi Delta Theta. McLauchlin, having created the famous Miss Frost, was given a Minerva, and here, excepting the Townsend orations and LITERARY HISTORY.

The boast of Ninety-eight has always been that she is of all classes the best developed along all lines. It is along the athletic line that this article deals. We opened our career in the Fall of '94 on the Hopkins Grammar School lot. Our delegate, O. M. Clark, had a tie bout wrestling with '97'S champion, and our light weight, Fisher, drew with his ,Q7 opponent. Our heavy weights through a sense of decency and of the fitness of things restrained themselves from humbling the chosen one of ,97. In the Fall Regatta we won first place, defeating '97 and others. One Zip Riddle, since departed, and now in Cambridge, England, aiding us. That Oxfords string of victories will soon be broken we have no doubt. Our foot-ball team possessed marvellous strength. Otherwise they would all be in their graves now. Such a course of training no team ever went through. Harvard won, but it didn't much disturb the general conviction that our mission on earth would be fulfilled notwithstanding. Three of our Fresh- man squad were taken over to the 'Varsity and presented with Y's. Their cheers on the side lines and the efforts of Letton, '97 S., helped to beat Harvard I2 to 4 and Princeton 24 to o. As for our Freshman game we were philosophi- cal and said as the English boating man, Sometimes it is hard luck, you know, and sometimes the other crew is faster. In the Winter we supplied the crew with a man for the one vacancy, stroke oar. The other seven or eight odd we selfishly kept to ourselves. The '98 boat never rowed a stretch on its bottom before the race. The crew was a log- ical crew with a sporting spirit, What is the need? said they. Accordingly they rolled down to New London with rare abandon and were promptly pro- nounced the freshest aggregation that had ever been seen there. Mr. Robert J. Cook said, judging from a rowing standpoint, they were the worst. Ten days of .his coaching morning, noon and night made our finale possible, a stretch of two miles with the boat absolutely on its bottom. It was a sensation to the crew, a decided experience. Harvard led at the mile, was tied at the mile and a half, and beaten by a bare half length of open water at the finish, Columbia crossed the line some minutes later. It was a delightful ending to a pleasing season. The element of uncertainty was never absent, which always adds to a situation, nor the problem, sink or swim, solved. H. B. Wil- ATHLETICS. 145 'cox had the misfortune to be taken sick two weeks before the race and lost his place in the boat. Teddy McGraw and Bertram Cadwalader made reputations on board the good schooner Fred Tank that will not die in the memory of man. The crew made a record in rowing the closest and hardest fought race -ever rowed at New London, and the second fastest in time ever made by a Yale crew. In base-ball we shone. So much so that the Facultylimited our illumination 'tO New Haven, ostensibly, because we had misbehaved at the Prom. concert. Really, because they feared to enlighten Harvard too rnuch in the art of ball playing. As for the Prom. concert, our actions were strictly in order, though .a bit marked, perhaps. But then, We were young and open to flattery. If the Prom. girl would look at us rather than the upper classmen around her, surely we could but cheer such taste and discrimination. But to return to base-ball- 'we beat '97 easily. In spite of our good example in scoring eleven runs they failed to respond and were shut out. With '96 we were more lenient, allowing 'them one game out of three. In track events our present captain, Perkins, won his Y in the hurdles. In Sophomore year we contributed to the team which beat Princeton zo to Io. Joe Hazen made the base-ball team that Spring, and Perkins went beyond his good work of the year before in the Princeton game with vanBeuren and Fewsmith as fellow point-winners. Four of the '98 Freshman crew went abroad with the Henley squad. Their successes were not altogether athletic. The Colonel regaled the Englishmen. with funny stories, and Payne Whitney shone at all garden parties and fussing functions. Both upheld the honor of their college and country against the foreigner, easily nonplussing them at every turn. In junior year our Class started winning the Fall Regatta in record time, .and by assisting in the benefit tendered W. J. Bryan on the green. We backed up the foot-ball team not only by giving representatives, but by afine moral support. In the Spring Dave Rogers, Whitney, Marsh and Mills were taken to New London with the crew squad. Ninety-eight entered a Hne fat crew in the Spring Regatta. They showed a poor head in selecting heavy men for passen- ,-gers in their boat and lost, not before, however, making a gamey fight, especially 'when the music of the brass band reached their ears. As an effort it was grand. There was so much of it. In the track games Byers won the loo and zzo against Harvard, and Per- kins took both hurdle events as per custom. Selin took second in the pole vault, and Cheney won out in the broad jump. In the Intercollegiate Perkins .again performed his two specialty acts in faultless style with vanBeuren coming in for third place in the high hurdles. joe Hazen and Fearey represented the 5 146 YALE '98 CLAss Book. Class in base-ball on the 'Varsity team. We invaded Cambridge and played? Harvard '98 but failed to win in the game that followed that evening. And now for Senior year. Hazen, Ely, W. Scranton and Hale came out with the 'Varsity squad, and the Class as a whole heeled the team in a way that. could not but inspire them. Such interest has never been shown by any Class- before, and the final ending was largely due to this moral support. joe Hazen's playing in both games was noticeably fine. Our '98 class team of course came oif victorious. The gallant run of Cap- tain Garrison unpursued, with the goal 50 yards away, stands out as one of the most inspiring pictures one can recall of foot-ball games. He didn't go the full fifty yards. His speed was so terrific that he fell exhausted at thirty-odd. Of' his able assistants Harrison stands out as the greatest exponent of rough play of the day. In crew matters Captain Whitney promises to turn out a record boat. There was one faster, the second boat, but the war and other reasons broke it' up. It was a '98 institution. , In base-ball Hazen, Wadsworth and Fearey are holding up one end of it and form the back bone of the team. Cap Perkins, vanBeuren, Cheney, Byers and Selin are with the track team. One of the greatest events in our athletic history was the great jay- Kernochan mill. It was athletic in every phase of its progress, affording quite as much exercise to the onlookers and the mob outside as to the combatants. After three terrific rounds Referee Marsh stopped the fight lest murder be done, and the decision was given to Kernochan. V The Corbett Club is an organization that must be mentioned. It is the crystallization of our sporting talent. It was a god-send for the News as editorial material. For the University at large it was a good thing as well, making the above sheet quite readable for some Weeks. In the wording of its letter to its patron saint, Corbett, and a final note to the Sparkling Dazbf, it was sublime. They were rare bits of literary com- position, showing the undergraduate what was possible in that time. The idea of Scrub Crews started in our far-famed Kipling Club and promises to be a fixture. The Coystrels won the regatta last year and the Gentlemen's Eight is quite as fast. The stirring words of the captain of the latter before their first race will never fade in the annals of rowing. Pull your hardest Whether ahead or in front, said he. As in no stage of the race did they occu- py either of these positions, their obedience to orders can not be questioned.

It is doubtful if any one of the three return for a graduate course next year. On the gym. team, Douglass, Ely, Terry, Kellogg, Cadwalader, Lehlbach and Burnet are our representatives. JAMES O. RODGERS. The writer of the above article is Yale's most representative athlete now in college. He is best known as a foot-ball player--a fame well earned by three years work at tackle on the 'Varsity team. In his last year he was elected captain and did what, ,in the early season, only the foolish had dared predict, and brought out a team to beat Princeton. Mr. Rodgers' rowing career should not be forgotten or obliterated by his more recent achievements in foot-ball. He rowed in his winning Freshman boat at New London, and pulled a hard race for the University at Henley. He coached the winning :goo crew, and is at present working with 1901. Both as coach and performer, on the water and on the gridiron, Captain Rodgers has shown the college and its friends what a man ought to do and how to act in doing it, and the Class is proud to contribute his name to the athletic .traditions of Yale. .

This fact has held especially true in the world of society, and has been cheerfully recognized by the New Haven Two Hundred and Fifty. From the time when Herbert Gal-- laudet started on his heart-breaking career at P1'exy's receptions in Freshman year, our social services have been in constant demand. Lawn Club dances,. Freshman teas and other attentions too numerous to mention were showered upon us even at this early stage of the game. Amid such gaieties as these the Winter swiftly glided by, and june found Frank Male and us recognized factors- in the social life of the Elm City. The hospitable qualities of the Class were first shown at our Sophomore- German, our official representatives being Simmons, G. Parker, Schreiber, Gal- laudet, and Crosby. The immense success of that affair convinced Lewis, commonly known as Inkey, that his- favors were too niggardly bestowed,. and since then no .more ardent and successful fref. A. I. Lewisl fusser can be found in the Class. The dancing classes held at the Anderson Gymnasium, of which O. M. Clark was the moving spirit, furnished capital amusement to- some of our more indefatigable heelers of the light fantastic throughout the year. The Summer vacation before our junior year will long be a memorable' one. It was in the course of these brief months that Tommy Allen brought his art of winning girlish hearts to such perfection that he fairly drew the- eyes right out 'of their heads, nor has he ever divulged the secret of this diabolical treatment, although offered every inducement to do so by his friend, Doc Metcalf. Our junior Promenade began with a dance on the preceding Saturday at Harmonie Hall. Under the able guidance of Simmons, Mason, Scranton, Ely, Schreiber, Gallaudet, G. Parker, D. Rogers, and Twichell, the Prom. itself was brought to a most successful conclusion. No other event in the social his-- tory of New Haven has ever approached it, with the possible exception of the Germans organized and conducted by our own Charley Peix. Senior year has been but a continuance of our earlier triumphs. Never before has the Toggle: SOCIAL. 149 joint, with its numerous organizations, enjoyed such a successful campaign, even the streets of far-away Milford are ringing with its name. The coming- out Party of Herbert Fisher, given by his brother, our Professor, to a select few, is but of recent occurrence. Here it was that Hebard mistook the phrase dd:-rl-do's to mean Back-up, with disastrous consequences to his partner, and Quigg Burnett, our Hfussing Pride, won undying fame with his two right-hand gloves. And now the time approaches for our last appearance on the local stag'e. Soon, ah! far too soon the names of Fitch and Jones, of Montgomery and Wilson and Gillespie, and of many another sighing gallant, will be but memories fondly cherished in many a tender heart, soon Del and U Garry will be known of Chapel street no more. And then, perchance, in the fullness of time the mystery of the promenade of Scut and Gus and Archie up Elm street at 5:10 P. M. daily may be disclosed. So we come to the Senior Prom., on which occasion the following committee will be in charge: F. T. vanBeuren-, Rodgers, Hazen, Sawyer, A. D. Baldwin, Butler, H. B. Wilcox, Perkins, Sheehan. Would that time and Madame Grundy would permit a further rehearsal of the experiences, grave and gay, which have fallen to our lot, of how Lindsley went to the house-party, and of the fearful and wonderful hose which Tom McLane's long experience at club windows has convinced hin1 are the proper things to display upon a shapely ankle, but the attitude of the Class upon social matters in general must be gathered from the statistics. The vote for social light was very close and memorable for the quality of the contestants engaged. Parker won a tongue-and-tongue race from Hay with a vote of 47 to the latter's 44. Simmons-finished third with 23, van- Beuren, Ab Hayes, Lewis, and Betts constituting the ruck in the order named. For fusser of course there was but one candidate for premier honors. 'Male turned the trick with 32 votes, distancing such seasoned candidates as Pipin Peix, Inkey Lewis, and Morris Ely, who tied at zz votes. Mc- Lane and Gross split even at II, while Hayes and Scranton U. HJ shook hands at 4. ' Could such a cosmic Class as '98 be said to split on anything it is on the Hitt-vanBeuren issue. Both gentlemen conducted themselves very well throughout the campaign, although vanB. was at times a trifle noisy. The quieter effects of Hitt won the day-ro6 to xoo. Swift caught somebody's eye and pulled down one vote. 4 The opinion regarding New Haven girls seems, on the whole, in their favor. A few individual opinions, however, are of interest: Montgomery asserts that they are jolly and good walkers, but too fastidious regarding ISO YALE '98 CLAss Book. aquatic costumes. Fine: they all like me fEllisj. ' Mason, with his usual modesty, says, I have not a large personal acquainsance, but my afternoon address is the Rialto. I-Iitchcock's opinion is tooverbose to be repeated, while Vaile says they serve admirably as understudiesf' The Class has declined to give any expression with reference to New Haven society. J. A. Hamilton admirably voiced our sentiments when he said: Owing to our own prominence a favorable opinion would savor of conceit, and politeness would prevent an unfavorable one under any circumstances. I cannot but be filled with wonder and admiration at the intimate knowl- edge which is shown by the following answers to the definition of love: A tender languor which permeates a young man's life and lifts his soul above this sordid world QBurnettj. An extraneous yet inherent lasteria replete with tinkling cynthinum QHeine Streeterj. An eternal night- mare QCurranj. A long, hard throw-down QPinky Scrantonj. Revenge, not love, fills my heart since my bout with Kernochan Uayj. That there is nothing narrow or provincial in our make-up the answers dealing with our personal tastes alongother lines than love and fussing bear ample witness: Joe jefferson easily proved the most popular actor with a vote of 162. Mansfield is clearly entitled to second place with 23 votes. Then came Irving and Sol Smith Russell with 1: and II votes respectively. Others who received more than one vote were john Drew 8, Nat Goodwin 5, Gillette 3. Our local pride is show11 by the fact that the following also received ballots in this connection: Tom McLane 4, Heine Streeter 3, Pick Wilson 2, Astoria- Scheftel 1. . For favorite actress the votes were distributed more evenly: Miss Adams leads with a vote of 77. Then come Ada Relian 41, Ellen Terry 17, julia Marlowe 17, Bernhardt 7, Duse 5, Olga Nethersole 4, julia Opp 2. Others to receive votes were Lillian Russell, Della Fox, and Irene Vera. The race between beer and water for favorite drink is very close, beer re- ceiving 5o votes, while 47 express their preference for tl1e milder beverage. Whiskey is third with 24 votes. Seven men support the claims of milk, the remaining votes being in the following order: Coffee 5, champagne 5, egg nog 4, gin fizz and absinthe 3 each, tea, hygeia, ginger ale, claret, and circus lemon- ade 2, shandy gaff tWilcoxj, rhine wine and seltzer QScheftell. Handsome Dan is easily the most popular tobacco, since 83 men consider it has no equal. Other votes cast were: Yale mixture 29, Old Gold 27, C. A. A. 18, Capstan 14.

Bingham, julin, Richardson: these three names should become a tradition of Ninety-eight, and the men who bear them should find a Yale latch-string out at every other door. For if they were not at the bottom of the grim and concentrated effort which turned the forensic tide to Yale's, advantage, they certainly rode the crest of its advance wave, scoring the first victory in debate which Yale can boast. It was a class aifairg but none of our subsequent Var- sity victories in the same line has met with quite the same ingenuous enthusiasm l-especially among ourselves. Victory gave so novel a sensation! Our Fresh- man year was nearly by, the usual brace of defeats having become history, when these three fellows loomed up on the platform of Alumni Hall to the discornfiture of Harvard and the jubilation of Yale. Since that tenth of May, 1895, Yale has lost but one of six debates, and though Ninety-eight has fur- nished a representative on only two teams one of which was successful, never- theless we end our college career as happily as we ended the Freshman quarter of itg with success against both Harvard and Princeton. To-day, debating as a university institution is at the highest point it has ever reached. Moreover, it is farther above the affairs of Brothers and Linonia than is commonly supposed. Here as elsewhere the legend of a Golden Age is but a legend. Perhaps very early indeed those two historic clubs were a mighty power in the land, but according to contemporary testimony which has reached us, their chief emulation was by way of roping in Freshmen to an inglorious initiation. In this each tried to outdo the other, and as for the audience, they actually threw things. It was inevitable that such an activity should peter out amid the rapid accumulation of other and more attractive interests-athletics, musical organizations, secret societies. As time passed, sundry persons grew restive at the persistent silence of our old halls, and sporadic attempts were made at what Dr. Raynolds has called galvanizing life into Linonia and Brothers. But no real success attended, nor did debating have any chance to make a stir till it was given that stimulus which has been so effective in athletics, namely, the stern alternative of defeat or victory for the DEuAr1NG. 153 participants. This man, says Professor Sumner, is a fighting animal. Moreover, Yale is a fighting collegeg and when it came to the pinch, it was found she could give and take in debate as heartily as anywhere. But we must remember the dauntless efforts of those who overcame Yale conservatism and put debating where it is. We are harvesting the results of a, former sowing, and it should not be without a backward glance of appreciation. The movement of which Bingham, julin and Richardson gave us the first sig- nal evidence, both before and after that event, absorbed the attention of many. Several Alumni Associations, especially that of New York, had been spurring' us to the work, several undergraduates, especially W. H. Clark '96, and C. U. Clark '97, set the Yale Union on a new pair of legs, and above all Professor Hadley and Dr. Raynolds deserve the eulogies of every honest debater. They have reduced debating to an art and coaching to a system quite comparable with the things of track and field. With the light jog-trot of early training corresponds the preparation of briefs, with early field practice, the making of short speeches, and finally the institution of a determined and self-sacrificing scrub debating team has put the finishing touch to a system now complete. Of course this is only an analogy. Debating and Athletics can never go in the same categoryg nor would any one desire it. Real physical fighting has always excited more genuine delight than mere verbal quarreling, and this is a sign of good health. The successful debater gets congratulations as sincere as those accorded the athlete, but less exuberant, for the vocations of the two men differ in nature. And yet there are more points than one at which they are in touch. Each requires coolness in the fray, and courage. Indeed, the debater carries the more anxious heart, for if he make a break, he is utterly con- founded. He has not the prerogative of descending through the floor, whereas the athlete may take up the time with kicking himself or mauling his adversary. Accordingly you may recognize this brawny champion by his set jaw and luminous eye, but the debater is marked by compressed lips, tortured brow and an air of unfathomable pre-occupation 3-in fact the old stereotyped descrip- tions of a man in love would hit him off admirably. He goes to breakfast without his neck-tie, his favorite place for the mucilage-brush is in the ink: and his sole use for salt is to flavor his tea. But, once the fight is on, he is metamorphosed like the lover who has at last got to his knees, he amazes even himself by the strength of his pleading and the alertness of his mind. But then, all debaters are not alike. There is your dapper, witty little body, more worried than he looks, who gets to his feet with an armful of notes, taking up every clause in his opponent's case and meeting it with a point so sharp that it breaks off against the obtuseness of his hearer. There is your ponderous fellow who cannot abandon his one argument. There is your blustering orator who 154 YALE f98 CLASS Book. smothers his opponents in a deluge of noise, and pounds the desk. There is your tall, incisive youth, who Withers with sarcasm and wields a bony index- finger. There is your suave, plausible disputant, meritoriously unscrupulous, who distorts the facts and tranquilly ignores everything on the other side of the -question. But We are waxing garrulous. The editors asked us for nothing but con- gratulations on the fact that the first stage in debating progress began and became perfect with Ninety-eight. But the second stage too has begun with us. Yale is concentrated and single in her efforts, and as, until recently, in .athletics, everything was sacrificed to a championship, so, now in debate, a more general practice of it has become a need. The gymnasium responded to such a need for athleticsg the Union and Professor Hadley's course in economic -debates are beginning to do likewise for debateg and under the guidance of President Bingham and Mr. M. L. Fearey, the Freshman Union has become good for something besides the ridicule of Sophomores. A11 this is making a soil from which debating events shall spring in future as a natural product- not a forced growth effected to meet a contingency. HERBERT WESCOTT F151-mia. Mr. Fisher is President of the Yale Union and the ablest debater in Ninety- Eight, if not in the University. His efforts have proved a three-time winner in inter-collegiate debates. As some one said last year, he makes easy listening. Not only as a debater, but an all around figure in mental activity has Mr. Fisher won his spurs His scholastic reputation is too well secured to need mention here, and the Atlantzk .fllanthgf was very glad to sound abroad the reflec- tions of his critical mind. NINETY-EIGHT FRESHMAN GLEE CLUB zzsgbad Undoubtedly Ninety-eight's most prominent musical organization is Howard Borden. It has been claimed that should the Glee, Banjo and Man- dolin Clubs meet with an accident and only Borden of the entire organization be saved, he alone could on very short notice duplicate any concert to his entire satisfaction. The wonderful versatility of his penetrating voice, which enables him to sing with no apparent effort all four parts at once, at the same time accompanying himself on a guitar, banjo, sweet potato, dog-cart, or some curious instrument made by himself out of, say a tooth-brush and a top-string- all this excites the admiration and amazement of his fortunate hearers. How- ard gained his dexterity in these arts along in Freshman year, when he used to perpetrate his nameless crimes on the Boys' Club. At that time a disinterested onlooker could not have helped but think that it was pretty hard on the poor little devils, but when the grand result was finally seen, it was apparent that their noble self-sacrifice had not been in vain. As the chief result of his trips, Howard now claims an intimate acquaintance with more livery stable proprie- tors than any other man in the United States not actually in the business. When we arrived in New Haven to enter college, we found that we had a nucleus on the Glee Club in the person of Parker, who with great foresight had decided to come back into Ninety-eight. Grenville's excellent judgment has been thoroughly appreciated by all of us. There has never been on the club a sweeter singer and a more lovable fellow. He has been the leading soloist for four years, and I have never heard of any other man with a like record. l When the men for the Christmas trip were chosen that year, we found ourselves unusually well represented for a Freshman class. Besides Gren we had Dutch Schreiber, Marshall Dodge, Shultz Sheehan and Zip Riddle. This last mentioned student, it may be remembered, took occasion shortly upon his return to extend a cordial though impolitic invitation to Prof. Fisher to Visit certain ultra-tropical regions. Soon after this he disappeared, and it was gen- erally thought that he had gone ahead to make preparations for Prof. Fisher's reception should he unexpectedly arrive. Other rumors had it that he had entered Harvard. So it will be noticed that the two theories of his where- abouts closely coincided. 158 YALE '98 CLAss Book. Soon the Prom. Concert came to pass. This was noteworthy as being the only time Winthrop has failed to occupy a Seat in the front row or in front of it. The long line of rain-soaked muckers who hung about the entrance to the Hyperion for forty-eight hours before the gallery admissions were put on sale' showed Ninety-eight's loyalty to her representatives, and incidentally one or- two other things. Owing to the public spirit of several of their number, the Class had been generously supplied with stacks of cards on which were printed such inspiring remarks and criticisms as What's the matter with Dutch Schrei- ber's brothers? Marshall Dodge is there! Hear Parker garglef' and other such notices. A blizzard of these cards was dislodged on the audience- amid the cheers of the class, until the floor of the theater seemed to be covered about six inches deep. Several hundred pounds of rice were also distributed in. handfuls upon the heads of the helpless but appreciative girls, who succeeded in ultimately dancing the most of it out of their hair at the various class ger- mans. All through this concert we behaved in a perfectly proper manner, and there was no disorder while the clubs were on the stage, except on one occasion when several over-officious upper classmen attempted to interfere with a large '98 flag, which had been stretched across the theater. Although every Prom. girl expected us to do exactly what we did do, and without any doubt would have been deeply disappointed had no incidental excitement been furnished, nevertheless the Faculty saw fit to deprive us of our i base-ball team because of' our disorderly conduct, they in all probability having been urged to do so by prominent ninety-seven men who were maddened by the far-flung and repeated taunt of Who won the Fall regatta? After this the Freshman Glee Club was organized. Almost every fellow who thought he could sing tried for it. It was a thoroughly representative crowd and contained such fraternizing spirits as Brewer Eddy, Pick Wilson, Fred Gilbert, Howard Borden, Enoch Bell, Phil Brooks, Ernie Richards, and Tom McLane. George Schreiber was made leader and Charlie Merrill secre- tary, probably because he couldn't sing. This famous organizations exploits are well known. Its weight-lifting feats in connection with raising church mortgages have been regarded by such benevolent ladies as make a business of managing strawberry festivals, as falling little short of the superhuman. The club's extensive tours took it all over the town and into darkest West Haven. Its greatest Elllff a' ' Ha! was the concert given for the benefit of the class crew, at which almost enough was realized fwithout considering the hopes of the crew managerj to pay Mr. Warner for the rent of his hall. The audience was slightly out-numbered by the club. However we did good service at the fence in the pleasant twilights of the Spring term. Ernie Richards took the lead in his adherence to this good Yale custom, which most of us have too much over- Musrciu.. 159 looked. The singing at the fences is enjoyable and promotes both good fellow- Ship and real democracy, and it has not had its rightful support from Ninety-eight. The favorite college song of the Class is Bright College Years, which receives roo votesg I-Iere's to Good Old Yale, comes next with thirty-four votes, and H 'Neath the Elms, Integer Vitae, A Song for Old Yale, and Amici, follow in the order named. The order of the first three is exactly the same as that of ninety-seven. Besides having the ability to sing, Ninety- eight has contributed several pieces to the musical literature of the college. Del Hay appeared first with his lyric entitled Queen of the Morn, which Gren sang in Sophomore Year. Then the op. I of Ernie Richards, which I think he called Down by the Old Bayou, was sung by Walter Lapham's quartette. In Senior year a good share of the program was devoted to the original work of Ninety-eight men. Charlie Merrill's words to Brave Mother Yale, will probably live as long as the Glee Club lasts. Merrill also wrote Situations, Billy Dominick, himself a member of the Banjo Club, contri- buted to the gayety of the nation via the Glee Club with his Chanson, his music furnishing a very clever setting for jokes which he evidently thought of while witnessing some performance of Weber and Fields. Charlie Ives com- posed Chapel Chimes, which has been sweetly sung under several aliases. Among compositions of my classmates, mention should undoubtedly be made of Fitch and Borden's march 't Old Eli, which it would seem impossible that any two men could have written. Of jay McLauchlan's Blue Banner March I refrain from criticism except in so far as to say that it sounds best when arranged as a duet, owing to the utter inability of. any one man to play a piano sufiiciently loud to drown out the noise made by the cover. Instrumentallly the Class is not very strong except in numbers. It has only five men on the Banjo Club. Nevertheless the organization known as the Toggle joint, which was sprung in junior year, boasts a complete banjo club which, accompanied by its Well meaning and industrious corps of alleged song- sters, gives concerts for no apparent reason wherever it is allowed, and in Harlem. The range of instruments operated by Ninety-eight men is, however, quite remarkable. Horace Clark claims he plays on the megaphone. Not the least-I started to say not in the least-accomplished of our musicians is Swamp Marsh, who says, I play very well on the sympathies. We all know his delicate touch and deft execution. Recknagel's answer is The typewriter. Burrell says, I should like to play the triangle, which, after all, is a most appropriate choice for a Lit editor to make. No one, I am glad to see, con- fesses to playing the races. Perkins remarks with some slight conceit, I think I could learn to play a bass drum in time. I trust he meant that he thought 16o YALE '98 CLAss Book. that in time he could learn to play a bass drum. Otherwise the effect could not but be most distressing. And finally what proof of the instrumental enthu- siasm of the Class would be demanded by any one who saw or heard our drum and fife corps at a memorable class base-ball game? None. In the Spring of junior year the elections on the clubs resulted in the choice of Schreiber to preside over the department of musical notes, while Eddy Sawyer looked after the banknotes. Eddy, who is known by everybody and loved by everybody who knows him, has made one of the most faithful and conscientious managers the clubs have ever had. He has been greatly aided in his efliciency by his intimate acquaintance with traveling passenger agents, prominent alumni, theatrical managers, and the Dean. Immediately on taking office Eddy started an aggressive campaign which resulted in the Ninety-eight clubs making the longest trip ever taken by a Yale musical organization. On this trip each man traveled almost six thousand miles by railroad and danced about four thousand miles more. The incentives all along the road were great -pink and white mostly and averaging nineteen years old. The encounters with these in several places took the form of very fierce skirmishes, and in one town a general engagement seemed imminent. All danger is not yet over from this source. The extreme hospitality which was thrust on us all along the way very properly threatened to relegate most of us to hospitals, yet we shall never forget it. The impression which the Ninety-eight clubs have made is very gratifying. The reason for this is as follows. The men most prominent in the social life of the club-such men as Harry Butler, Jimmie Wadsworth, Fred vanBeuren, Frank Sheehan, Billy Dominick, Gren Parker and many others, have always in my opinion stood for everything that a typical Yale man should be, and I think that they have given to all before whom they have sung and played a true idea of what they are. SIDNEY ROBINSON KENNEDY. In asking Mr. Kennedy to contribute something in the line of musical com- ment, the editor found a man unusually happy in such a performance. He has played everything at all times for four college years, and in this last year has imparted his success in part, to a dozen understudies. As a writer, too, he has demoralized Yale traditions and practiced occasional originality, to the great satisfaction of the Class. NINETY-EIGHT FRESHMAN FOOT-BALL TEAM Zhanczhd Happy is the man who, on entering college, need take no thought of how much money he can have, where best he can distribute it, or where he can earn it. Many men have considered all of these things, many more some of them, and few, indeed, none of them. For all but these last, and perhaps them, the subjoined table will have some interest. Of the three hundred men in the -Class, nearly two hundred have given estimates of their college expenses. .Some men estimated the expense of less than four years, which will account for the slight irregularity in the tables: F1114:s11mAN.

The largest estimate furnished showed an average .annual expense of 352,800 The smallest was 5391. 25. A number of men' have paid their entire college expenses by working in vacations as well as term-time, and a very large number have paid a part of ztheir expenses. As only partial statistics could be given on this point, owing 164 YALE '98 CLASS Boolc. to the reticence of some members, it would be misleading to print what figuresl are available. Considerably more than a quarter of the Class have contributed in a measure to their college support. Sources of profit have been tntoring,. soliciting advertising for college and other publications, corresponding for newspapers, editing digests, teaching in night schools, monitor services for the college, managing eating clubs, waiting on table, soliciting and collecting sub- scriptions to college papers, clerical work in libraries, book canvassing, type-- writing, care of furnaces fusually for lodgingj, and singing in church choirs. A. S. Hay kept a bee. Would you advise a man to work his way through' college? is answered in the affirmative by most of the Class. Some, however, hold a different opinion, they themselves having tried it. They claim that the same extraordinary effort along business lines would meet with more success and less resistance. Still, to one wanting a college education, the generous- spirit of co-operation in the Class, the varied opportunities for making money and the liberal abatements in university bills should be of great encourage-- ment. The average price of board paid by the Class has been 35.27 per week One hundred and ninety-four men have at one time or another eaten at Com-- mons.

Inasmuch as '98's religious life has been centered mainly in Dwight Hall and in the College Chapel, some facts at the start regarding our connection with these two institutions may not be out of place: With the entrance of the Class in the fall of 1894, the old and much- abused custom of electing temporary Class deacons by popular vote was abol- ished, and in its place was substituted the selection of a committee of ten by the President of the Association from a personal canvass of the preparatory schools. Ninety-eight's Freshman Religious Committee consisted of Bell, Dodge, Gallaudet, King, McLane, Mullally, J. S. Rogers, Wickes, A. B. Williams, and Wright. These men served until the beginning of Sophomore year, when Gallaudet, Williams, Wright, and Twichell, who entered in the Spring from ,97, were elected permanent Class deacons. During the course Gilbert has served the Y. M. C. A. as Treasurer, Gallaudet as Secretary, Will- iams as Vice-President, and Wright as President. Twichell and Payne have had charge of the Bethany Sunday School, on Oak street, while King, Packer, jackson, Burlingame, and Root have been instrumental in bringing the Berke- ley Association to its present position of usefulness. Bingham, Hume, Kerno- chan, and Turnbull managed the Boys' Club in Freshman year, and, in all, sixty-five members of the Class have served the Association on its various committees. An average of between thirty-five and forty men have attended the Bible class, which was conducted in Freshman year by A. P. Stokes, jr., '96, in Sophomore year by Wickes and Wright, in junior year by Bingham and Wickes, and in Senior year by Gilbert and Williams. Ninety-eight has had the oppor- tunity of listening to some very able preachers and lecturers on religious subg jects, notably the Earl of Aberdeen, George W. Cable, Rev. Henry Van- Dyke, B. Fay Mills, Dwight L. Moody, and Dr. McKenzie. It has also seen its full share of periodical attacks upon the religious and moral status of the University. T In reply to the question submitted by the editors regarding the influence of Dwight Hall as an institution upon Yale student life, the returns, although incomplete, were sufficient to show plainly the sentiment of the Class in the matter. One hundred and twenty-two men voted that it was a benefit, thirty-six 166 YALE '98 CLAss Book. thought it injurious, and twenty-nine replied that it had both good and bad tendencies. It was very gratifying to note that of the one hundred and eighty odd replies received, nearly all approached the matter seriously, and it is to be regretted that more did not give the reason for their opinions. The opposition, as far as it could be classified, was aroused mainly by fij, over-organization in the work, fzj, inconsistencies in the lives of the Y. M. C. A. members, and Qgj, the tendency to make the Association instead of the Christian life, the goal of effort. The Class had very little difficulty in selecting its favorite preacher. Dr. McKenzie, who has spoken frequently during the four years, and who has conducted several special services, leads the list with eighty-five votes. Dr. Watson flan MacLarenj was with us but a single Sunday, but his heartfelt and sympathetic words on that occasion won for him sixty-five admirers. Dr. Van- Dyke comes third with twenty-five votes. p One hundred and forty men are in favor of compulsory chapel, and over half that number express unqualihed approval. One hundred and one are opposed, more or less violently. The chief objection to chapel seems to be that the compulsory nature of the service lessens a man's devotional spiritg its chief virtue, that it encourages punctuality and sustains the Class and univer- sity relations. Other comments are: C Beneficial after a comparison with Sheff. Good for the first two years. It gets the college together. Chapel habit not hard to acquire. Church life at Yale inadequate. It does more than anything else to kill religious feeling. As suggestions for improvement we 11ote the following: Better choice of hymns. Short lec- tures on history, etc, 'f More attentive and receptive spirit from students. Less reference to athletics in the sermons. Better preachers. Put a little religion into it. One man replies, We find fault with it on principle, but would not have it abolished. A The Class has one hundred and ninety-five church members, divided as follows: Presbyterians, fifty-threeg Congregationalists, fifty-two, Episcopa- lians, forty-nine, Baptists, eleveng Roman Catholics, ten, jews, fourg Metho- dists, fourg Lutherans, two, ,United Brethren, twog Universalists, two, Apos- tolate, one, Swedenborg, one, Unitarian, one. Ten men have consecrated their lives to the cause of Foreign Missions, viz: Bell, Bingham, D. B. Eddy, D. L. Eddy, Gage, Gilbert, R. E. Hume, Thurston, Warren, and A. B. Will- iams, jr. Many others contemplate entering distinctively Christian work. In conclusion, the writer feels certain, basing his views on a careful study of the replies received, that both Chapel and Dwight Hall have had a marked influence for good on the life of the Class. There are abuses connected with both. but these as often result from the apathy and indifference of the students RELICEIOUS. 167 themselves as from any fault of those who have the institutions in charge. It lies with every class to make out of them what it will, and honest criticism should not only be welcomed by the religious leaders, but should be regarded by the Class as a duty which it owes itselfg for inasmuch as all religious insti- tutions are at best but means to a higher end, they should be made as efficient means as possible. HENRY B. WRIGHT. l yaersonaf. The most popular man in '98 is Frank Simmons. Of this opinion there are one hundred and forty men. joe Hazen follows with twenty-one men. Gren Parker has twenty, while Garrison, Mason, and Callender monopolize- the rest. For handsome man we play Ledyard and Twichell. Thirty-four men will uphold the merits of each. VanBeuren with twenty-seven, Parker, with twenty-two, Harrison, with fourteen, Wadsworth, with thirteen, and Gallau-V det, with twelve, mark an easy decline, while Mort Fearey and Mory Crosby can glare over seven each. The pretty man is I. S. Mason. One hundred and one men so declare him. Well, behind the butcher come Rosey Baldwin, with forty-four, and Cupid Chester, with twenty-five. Dodge, Scranton, and Neal were- others to please. . Klondike Ward saw the crash coming' and left, his mantle falling grace- fully upon Alex. Bunce. Without superfluous comment behold the vote: Ward fquz' eratj, twenty-four, Bunce, twenty-two, Hitchcock, twenty, Hart, seventeen, Evans, Tows and Turnbull, twelve, Goldsmith and Byers, ten, Spike Hennessey, nine, R. E. Hume, Hve. A great many more have one vote. The meekest man is Benjamin. Thirty-five men are thus impressed. john Rogers lacks aggression, and twenty-three men have noticed it. Bartlett has fifteen votes, while Fowler, Farr, Hazen and Gallaudet with four a iece are joint heirs to the earth. The eccentric boys are Montgomery, twenty-eight, Rowland, twenty-s-ix, I. R. Smith, twenty-one, Colcord, fifteen, Tows, fourteen, Ketchum, thirteen, Turnbull, thirteen, Andrews, twelve, and Cogswell, six. The windy men are a lusty host. Hold on your hats while Winthrop, seventy-seven, Vaile, thirty-one, and McLauchlan, twenty, scamper by. And see! Way in the distance, hid by the whirling dust, Merrill, fifteen, Stim- mie, fourteen, Pick Wilson, O. M. Clark, Gales, Eddy, Mullally, and Bur- nett vie in inanity of much remark, while Wadsworth babbles some. F. A. Lord has two votes. The calm, deliberate, lazy men are picked as follows: H. W. Wilcox, 7 1 p 7 PERSONAL. 169. thirty-nine, Allen, seventeen, Harrison, fourteen, Bruce Clark, fourteen, james, seven, and Lord, four. No Kings uncrowned deliberate walk unmasked in '98, although a great many find favor in their neighbors' eyes. Twenty-six men think Perkins is. most to be admired, while J. O. Rodgers and A. B. Williams enlist nineteen votes each in this connection. Wright, eighteen, Simmons, fourteen, Lord, twelve, Gallaudet, ten, vanBeuren, nine, Twichell and Gilbert, six, Wool- ston, five, Sawyer and Kernochan, four, have friends to thank for kind words. and appreciation, etc., etc. Our versatile man is jay McLauchlan, with seventy-three votes. He rows and sings, writes a little, reads a little, and has a blufhng acquaintance with practices too numerous to mention. Fisher, thirty-five, Kennedy, nineteen ,, Perkins, thirteen, and Burrell, six, are others of varied accomplishments. The brightest man, according to thirty-nine men, is Sam Bassett. Gouv. Morris receives thirty-five votes, Lord, thirty-one, Hick Wilcox, twelve, Archbald, nine, Merrill, eight, Kennedy, seven, Shall, McLauchlan, Wright, Hinsdale, Woolston, Briggs, Scranton, Fisher, Clapp, Brewer Eddy, Mitchell, and Levy are also vans, receiving four or more votes apiece. Success is predicted in the superlative degree for the following men: Williamson, thirty-one, O. M. Clark, twenty-eight, Lord, twenty-one, Eugene, Hale, jr., eighteen, Crosby, thirteen, Simmons, nine, Levy, nine, Sawyer, nine, Bassett, seven, D. E. Peck, five, A. S. Hay, four, Payne Whitney, four, and a dozen men have a smaller number. Colcord, Bruce Clark, and J. W. Walsh, with thirty-nine, thirty-one, and thirteen are the conspicuous grouches. Few men fail to get one or more votes.. For good, consistent, uninterrupted digging, the Class fancies Downs. Sixty men award him the title' of Class Dig. Goulding, with thirty-five, Gaines, with twenty-eight, R, E. Hume, with twenty-three, and Bassett and Bennett with a dozen each, are other men marked. It were foolish to mention more than two names for the man who thinks he is the brightest. Can you guess them? They finish in alphabetical order. The vote is eighty-three and seventy-five, and Messrs. Kennedy and Merrill are the men. ' For pure, unadulterated nerve there are thirty-nine men who think Charlie- Merrill the limit, and thirty-two accord Pick Wilson the honor. Dink ' Evans has shown an unmatched article to nineteen men, and fourteen dis- criminating men put their money on McLauchlan. Jim Wadsworth appeals to thirteen men, while The Clarks, Bruce and O. M., have ten votes apiece, as has also Borden. Rowland has six, and Charlie Burnett, Brewer Eddy, and Otto Goldsmith satisfy five men's definition of nerve. 17o YALE '98 CLASS Book. Scranton with his bucolic wit leads the funny men with fifty-one votes. Kennedy and Morris with twenty-two votes each, and Rhodes with twenty, dance distant attendance. The attempts of Hinsdale, fourteeng Lord, ten, and Harrison, nine, are received with little favor, and lesser comicos are Merrill, Hamill, McLauchlan, Sheehan, Loewi, and Woolsey, who have live votes respectively. Ninety-eight is full of good-natured men, any one of whom would be a winner in another class. As it is Sawyer steps off with thirty-four votes. Hazen has thirty-two and Curran twenty-two. Garrison and Simmons have fifteen each, while Hay and Schreiber have each won ten. Other smilers are Max Smith, Charlie Burnett, Gren Parker, Pudge Ellis, Alice Cadwalader, Bill Vaile, and Toggle Milliken. The man who has done most for Yale, according to one hundred and one men, is I. O. Rodgers. Forty-nine men think Perkins is the man. Next in the number of votes is Henry Wright, with fourteen votes, after Whom in the order named come Sawyer, A. B. Williams, Parker and Simmons. For best all-round athlete J. O. Rodgers receives one hundred and one votes. Hazen has seventy, Ely forty-eight, and Perkins thirteen. Weaker lights are Mason and Scheftel. Col. Marsh is the Class choice for Class bluiierg his advocates numbering twenty. Ely enlists the favor of nineteen and McLauchlan has fifteen. Crosby and Merrill have eleven each, while Peix, Meigs, Streeter, Male, and Wright complete the assortment with votes ranging from eight to two. Twenty-two men have noticed Colcord's sad expression, and declare him their choice for most melancholy man. Ketchum polls seventeen, Lindsley and Brett twelve each, Wickes six, and Horace Clark Hve. NINETY-EIGHT FRESHMEN BASE-BALL TEAM. for jaourztzl If .any of the curious-minded have looked elsewhere for anything in this book and failed to find it, we hope they will hnd it here. During our term of residence there have been a few changes in the co1lege's physical get-up, Pierson Hall was erected on York street and the comple- tion of .Phelps Hall brought discomfiture to the motley herd of .News Heelers. The opening of Hotchkiss Park--which by the way has never been formally dedicated--marked a new epoch in sand-lot gardening, and added, by compu- tation, some four and a half miles to the daily walks of the inhabitants of White and frequenters of jake's. The cost of the fence enclosing the park was cheerfully defrayed by Schneider, Stroehle, el al. The Bursar made his initial bow during our confinement, and it was under our wing that basket-ball, mentioned heretofore, arrived at the dizzy height of its present favor. The pleasant events chronicled by the Class are of an extensive variety. Athletic and debating victories are of course accorded a great share of popular enthusiasm. The Romeo tactics of Curran and Scheftel's Bnrlesquers in their entrance to the Lyceum Athletic Club and their consequent exits pro- voked spasms of keenest joy among the ring votaries presentg and Van Linds- ley's initial Qand lastj performance on the diamond wet many a bearded cheek. The conclusion of Baylis's speech at the Kappa Beta Phi dinner enlists the vote of those present as the most rhapsodical event of their course. The courtly graces of Hinsdale and Burnett in the minuet stands most prominent in the minds of some, and the squat-tag frolics of Bingham and E. W. Whitte- more at the Sophomore fence are also crowned with immortality. Three soubrettes and a pair of scene-shifters threw Dink Evans into a joyful swoon, and Pudge Ellis was most tickled to death when he swallowed a feather in junior year. The vote for favorite exercise is well divided between base-ball, wheeling, rowing, shooting, skating, and kite-flying. - The favorite characters in history are: Napoleon, seventy-three, Lincoln, thirty-oneg Washington, twenty-sixg Julius Caesar, nineg Circe, threeg and Chuck Connors, two. In fiction they rank as follows- jean Valjean, Lorna Doone, D'Artagnan, 174 YALE '98 CLASS Book. Becky Sharp, Frank Merriwell, Falstaff, Streeter, Nausicaa, and the Man who was drowned in a vat of beer. In politics we stand: Republicans, one hundred and fifty-eightg demo- crats Qall kindsj, 645 Mugwumps, eighteen, Peanut, oneg Stecklerite, one. One hundred and twenty-seven men think the democratic spirit is Hourish- ing here, and one hundred and seven consider it is on the wane. One hundred and three men in the Class wear glasses. Of these, fifty-three have first used them while in college. One hundred and seventy-one men favor a dual league with Harvard. Seventy-five are opposed to it. Athletic relations with University of Pennsylvania are voted down by about three to one. The Class goes to bed at quarter-past twelve in the morning. St. Paul's, at Concord, is voted the best preparatory school, followed at some distance by Phillips,'Andover. More than the foregoing there is little to be said. A directory of future addresses has been made impracticable by the uncertainty of many of the Class, and that feature of Yale Class Books has been omitted this year. 61m umbr Jgvpozhimeni .C1Is'f.

To Me Cfass of Eighteen ffmzzzfrezi amz' ZVz'ne4y-ezlght .' Dear Classmates--With the approach of graduation, now so near at hand, and of our departure from the places and scenes that have grown so familiar and dear to us during the four years of college life, comes almost for the first time the thought that before we realize it we shall be alumni. And it is in this connection that We Wish again to remind you all of the duty and privilege of our Class as a Whole to assist our Alma Mater in every possible manner. The work of the Yale Alumni University Fund Association has been explained elsewhere-we all know how, for the past five years, since its organ- ization, it has been able, as the result of small individual subscriptions, to add to the income of the University an average of over ten thousand dollars annually to be used where it is most needed. Next january for the first time we, too, shall have an opportunity to do something for Yale in a substantial Way, and we would urge each member of Ninety-Eight, individually, to give what he can, however small that may be. The number of contributions, not the size ofthe individual contributions is the main consideration. Let every man, then, contribute something, when the time comes, if it is only one dollar, to swell the total, and help to prove that the love of our Class as a Whole for Yale and its interest in her did not stop with graduation, but still continues, ever ready to respond to her call in time of need.

To our Regular customers our goods need no especial mention. To those who have not dealt with us we would say a few words in regard to the general advantages we offer them. All garments sold are made and designed by us. The most particular care is given to the smallest detail of cut and manufacture. Shapes are carefully revised every season to keep pace with changes of style. The limited quantity in each lot and exclusive- ness of style guarantee the best value and at lower prices in many instances than are asked for gar- ments made in large wholesale lots of inferior workmanship. As we have no agents or travelers and but one store our goods cannot be procured elsewhere. Catalogue, samples and rules for self-measure ment will he sent on application.
