"Libraries are as the shrinss where all the relics of the ancient saints, full of true virtue, and that,
without delusion or imposture, are preserved and reposed." — Bacon.
"Let It rise! Let it rise! 'Till it meet the sun in his coming: let the earliest light of the morning
gild it, and the parting day linger and play on its summits."— Webster.

"The sighl oj such a monument is like continual and stationary music which one hears for one's
good as one approaches it." — Alleen Wilson.
'But beyond the bright searchlights of science,
Out of sight of the windows of sense,
Old riddles still bid us defiance.
Old questions of Whv and of Whence.
'—W.C.D. Wheiham.
Our McKendree
A College 'mid plains is standing, standing there from
olden days.
The Pioneer of the prairies, first in untrodden ways.
For service and Christian culture, for efficiency she stands,
Her sons and daughters praise her, with voices, hearts and
hands. "
Hail to thee our dear old McKendree,
May we always loyal be,
It's a song of praise we'll raise to thee.
Alma Mater, dear old M.-C.
May we ever own thee true and wise and right,
Honor Purple and the White.
And for victory we'll always fight,
'Till we win for old M-C-K.
Enduring and strong she stands there, stands upon our
College Hill,
Though others may outnumber, she holds the first place
still,
For beauty and truth and knowledge, and for service with-
out bound.
Then let us raise our voices, until the plains resound.

However, he had ambition enough to play
football so well that he has been chosen to
lead our Centennial team. Todd is an

McKendree Coaches
Coach Glenn F. FiUey. director of athletics at McKendree for the past
two years has proven himself a capable leader.
In 1923, Coach Filley graduated from Missouri Wesleyan, where he
gained recognition as an all-around athlete. Following his graduation he
coached in the high school at Grand Island, Nebraska.
During his two years at McKendree his teams have ranked high in con-
ference circles. Last year the grid team finished fourth in the conference,
and the Purple track squad gained fifth place in the State meet.
With a number of new men expected next year to add to the letter-men
returning. Coach Filley should again produce teams of high caliber.
Coach Everett Jordan, who has served as assistant
to Filley, has played a large part in the Purple victories
this year. His ability as a leader has put the Bear Cats
in a fighting spirit when the morale was low. Coach
Jordan had complete charge of the baseball team, and
since a team of veterans will take the field in the opening
game, the prospects for a winning team are good.

Joseph Guandolo — Captain
"Joe"
CONWAY, PENNA.
Joe not only acted captain during the 1926
season, but played like a captain. This was Joe's
third year on the team, and he has another year
to play. That means that very few plays will be
pulled around right-end next year.

Erle Todd, Captain Elect
CONWAY, PENNA.
The Centennials will have Todd for their
captain, as he is the second of the Conway
dynasty to lead the Bear Cats. Todd, who has
played quarterback for the past three years, has
all the qualities of a leader, and plays a hard,
consistent game.
Harold Kaesar
"Whitey"
BELLEVILLE, ILL.
Kaesar's willingness to fight against larger
men, overcame his handicap of being rather
small, and he developed into the best line-
plunger on the squad.
Football Summary
The McKenclree Bear Cats suffered a larger
number of defeats this year then they had in the
entire two previous seasons. A lack of line-material
to aid a fast, smooth working hackfield pro\ed to he
too much of a handicap and, out of eight games
played, six were reverses, one resulted in a tie and
one was a Purple victory.

"Steve"
EDWARDSVILLE, ILL.
Steve's specialty was a dash around end, and
he made some long gains. The Bear Cat
followers welcome Steve's return next year, as
he should be a big factor during the Centennial
campaign.
Charles Jack
"Charlie"
OPDYKE, ILL.
The basketball star thought he would try
his hand at football, and much to his surprise,
not only could he play a good brand of football
but most of the time his work at the tackle and
end positions was of a stellar character. An-
other year should see even greater improvement

the Miners were declared victors. Kolesa played his
best game of the season against Rolla. Springfield,
another Missouri team, defeated the Bear Cats in the
best game of the year by a score of 10-0. On this
occasion the Filleymen looked good even in defeat.
The first conference game against Lincoln saw
the Bear Cats put up a brilliant game, and as a re-

The Western Teachers met the local team in the

This quiet, unassuming, bashful Christopher
boy required some time before he could adapt
himself to college football. Finally he hit his
stride and his fighting qualities on the defense —
his clean-cut tackles — his nevcr-give-up spirit —
won for him his coveted "M". Eddie is sure to
make regular half next season.

GRANITE CITY, ILL
Western Military Academy sent us one of
their big soldier boys, and Coach Filley immedi-
ately set to work and made a plunging full-back
out of him. The first half of the season found
Luster in a guard position, but later his line
smashing abilities were recognized by his shift
into the backfield.
Playing before the largest crowd in McKendree
History, and against an old traditional rival, the Bear
Cats dropped the Home-Coming game to Shurtleff,
26-0. The Pioneers played stellar ball in avenging
their Homecoming defeat at the hands of the Filley-
men in the previous season.

NEWTON, ILL.
The big boy from Newton was a consistent

The final game of the season proved to be an
upset. The Carbondale Teachers were doped to beat
the Bear Cats by three touchdowns, but when the
final whistle blew the score was deadlocked 0-0. This
game failed to furnish many thrills, probably due to
bad weather conditions, the field being covered with
two inches of snow.

Paul Knauff

NEW BRIGHTON, PENNA.
Although beginning football practice rather
late, Knauff soon was awarded a position in the

Coach Filley faced a real problem when practice
began. Only five letter men returned to school and,
since only two of these were linemen, a new line had
to be built. The new material was good, but only
coaching and experience can mould a winning team.
Prospects for a strong eleven for the Centennial year
are bright and the Bear Cats expect to take their
place among the conference leaders.

The Basketball Season
Charles Jack — Captain
"Charlie '
OPDYKE, ILL.
Twisting, squirming, tearing, writhing,
puffing, "Charlie" dribbles out of a mass
of players and suddenly with a queer con-
tortion, loops another of his sensational
baskets. Besides being the high point
man in the Conference, Jack is also the
respected and well-liked leader of his
team-mates.
Although the basketball season was not as successful as the previous one
a number of interesting and closely-contested floor games were played. Nine-
teen games were staged during the season, eleven of which were conference
games. Of these eleven, there were five victories.
The Bear Cat team was considered the smallest basketball aggregation
in the "Little Nineteen" conference. However, the Bear Cats offset this
"handicap" with their characteristic whirlwind style of game and fast floorwork.
The season opened with a listless game with the Werner-Werner team
from St. Louis. This game merely exhibited the early season mistakes of
the Filleymen, and the following game with the speedy EvansviUe quintet
showed a decided improvement in the teamwork of the Bear Cats.
The work of the Bear Cats against the Rolla Miners was fast and accurate
and Coach Filley and his men came out on the long end of a 32 to 24 score.
The work of Captain Jack and Brown was particularly brilliant in this game.
In two closely-contested battles with the Springfield Teachers of Spring-
field, Missouri, McKendree was defeated. Returning to the home floor the
Bear Cats were revenged by defeating the Teachers by one point. In the
last two minutes of play Mayo Magill looped the winning basket.
McKendree broke even in their two game series with the Shurtleff Pioneers.
The Bear Cats were defeated by a two point margin at Alton and on the home
court the McKendreans annexed a victory by a wide margin. "Pup" Brown's
scoring was a feature of this game.
Probably the best game of the season was played against McKendree's
ancient rival, Southern Illinois Normal. Playing on foreign territory, the
Bear Cats unleashed a powerful attack which netted 47 points and a victory
for the Filleymen. On the return engagement, McAndrews' quintet copped
the game with a last minute spurt.
This season ended the basketball careers of three stars, Wensel Brown,
and the two Magills. Coach Filley will doubtlessly find difficulty in filling
the two forward positions left vacant by Wensel Brown and Mayo Magill and
the back guard position which is now open. However, Todd, Martin, and
several other reliables will be of assistance to Coach Filley in the moulding
of his centennial team.

Mayo Magill
"Mac"
GREENVILLE, ILL.
For the past four years one
of McKendree's mainstays has
been this quick, cat-like, wiry
Greenville boy who was
always on the go, who could
always be depended upon to
"loop 'em" when they were
needed. In the pcrsonofMayo
Magill, we ha\e lost one of the
best forwards in the history of
the school.
Guy Magill
"Cotton"
GREENVILLE, ILL.
Our cottonheaded back-
guard never knew that the
English language had .such a
word as ' 'Quit . ' ' From the first
whistle to the last, "Cotton"
was actively engaged in break-
ing up opposing plays, inter-
cepting passes and at times
even shooting a few baskets.
"Beeson" ended his college
basketball career by playing
a "bang-up" good game.
Emery Martin
"Adickey"
SUMNER, ILL.
Sumner High School sent
us a well-built chap who came
into his own during the latter
half of the basketball season.
It was only the fact that two
extra good forwards were on
the team that hindered
"Mickey" from makirg a
regular forward. We will see
more of him in the year to
come.

For three years our midget

shouldered the responsibili-

With his uncanny ability to
dribble, his fast floor work
and a keen eye for the basket,
"Pup" has established a
basketball reputation at Mc-
Kendree which will long
endure.
Clifton Gould

Although bigger men have
handled the guard position
at McKendree, no one has
played it with as much fight,
as much vigor and as much
honest-to-goodness headwork
as has our next year's cap-
tain. We expect Hurley to
fill Jack's shoes in splendid
fashion.
Erle Todd

The tall, handsome boy
from the East, was called
upon time and again to take

tion next year.

1926
The 1926 Track Team was one of the strongest that ever represented
McKendree. The season opened with the A. A. U. Indoor meet at the Coliseum
in St. Louis, when the Bear Cat Relay team showed their heels to the fast
Washington U. team. Later in the season in a track meet at St. Louis the
Washington University team defeated McKendree 723^ to 273/2-
In the James Miliken University track meet at Lebanon, the Bear Cats
walked away with high honors, winning by a score of 703^2 to 603/^. Ray Goode
was high point man, garnering first places in the javelin and shot put, and
seconds in the discus throw and pole vault.
On May 13 the McKendree tracksters defeated Shurtleff College to the
tune of 74 to 52, and the following week they placed fifth in the "Little Nine-
teen" Field and Track Meet held at Illinois College. Ray Goode broke the
State javelin record for the third time with a throw of 192 feet 53^^ inches.

After a slow start due to bad weather and a poor diamond, the baseball
team came back strong and defeated Eden Seminary and Shurtleff College, after
losing to St. Louis University, Western Military Academy, Concordia and

Philosophian Literary Society
1837 - 1927
After a continuous service of ninety years devoted to the
cause of literary training, the Philisophian Literary Society
can view an unbroken record, survey a worthy accomplish-
ment, and, in consequence, gain an inspiration for a glorious
future It has written an enviable history and has never
deviated from its original purpose. Through these eventful
years it has furnished toilers in every noble sphere of human
endeavor — many of whom have won distinction. In the
World War two of Philo's sons made the supreme sacrifice for
their country; namely, Glenn McCormack and Harold Adams.
A McCormack Memorial Fund is being established, the
interest accruing from this forming an Annual Philo Scholar-
ship at McKendree College. In the near future a similar
Adams Memorial will be founded.
The meetings have been changed from Friday to Monday
night, and, as a result of this alteration, an increased interest
has been manifest by both old and new members.
Thus nonagenarian Philo again drinks deeply at the
"Fountain of Youth," arises, and with a toss of his proud head
throws back the hoary locks of passed glories, picks up the
shield of determination upon which is emblazoned "Detur
Digniori," unsheathes the keen sword of intellectual endeavor,
and faces with a firm step the dawn of a new day!

The members of the Press Club publish the McKendree Review, a weekly
publication, to which each student becomes a subscriber when he matriculates
in the College. The Review is a member of the Illinois College Press Associa-
tion.
Work on the Review offers an opportunity to the student who is interested
in journalism and who desires practical experience. Any student submitting
samples of work which are satisfactory to the editors-in chief and to the faculty
advisor, Miss Zella V. Brown, of the English department, is eligible for
membership in the Press Club.
It was the Club's good fortune this year that Joseph Hortin and Vernal
Hardy were appointed editors of McKendree's paper, for the editorial column
throughout the year has brought favorable comment to the publishers as well
as praise for the editors.
Very few college papers have been able to publish a column containing the
special features or the humor such as we find in that of Miss Edna Kinsey.
Her consistent work has drawn much attention, and a large number of college
papers have often found her work worth copying.
It is the wish of those who support McKendree College, that every new
student will realize the part that the McKendree Review plays in advancing
college ideals, in expressing student opinion, and in supporting every helpful
organization on the campus.

The greatest orator, save one, of antiquity has left it on record that he ahvays studied his adver-
sary's case with as great, if not with still greater, intensity than even his own. What Cicero practiced
as the means of forensic success, requires to be imitated by all who study any subject in order to arrive
at the truth. He who knows only his own side of the case, knows little of that. His reasons may have
been good, and no one may have been able to refute them. But if he is equally unable to refute the
reasons on the opposite side, if he does not so much as know what they are, he has no ground for pre-
ferring either opinion. The rational position for him would be suspension of Judgment, and unless he
contents himself with that, he is either led by authority, or adopts, like the generality of the world, the
side which he feels most inclination. — On Liberty, by John Stuart Mill.

The McKendree College Orchestra
The McKendree College Orchestra of this year consisted almost entirely
of new members. In spite of a late start and numerous other difficulties, the
members showed a fine spirit of co-operation and accomplished excellent work.
The purpose of the college orchestra is to provide an opportunity for
ensemble playing for musicians at McKendree and to assist in the various
public entertainments sponsored by the school.
Reviewing the work done by the new and old members this year, it is
expected that the centennial year will find the McKendree College Orchestra
bigger and better than ever.

The Oxford Club
Among McKendree's students have always been found a goodly number
preparing for the ministry. One reason for the founding of the College back
in 1828 was that Southern Illinois might have preachers with an educational
training. Some years ago the organization known as the Oxford Club was
started with the idea of providing for ministerial students a means for mutual
improvement.
The meetings are held every two weeks and a variety of programs afford
the student a chance to grow and develop a usefulness in the line of his chosen
work. Look well at the above group. With the exception of the faculty
members involved you are looking at future district superintendents, pastors
of seven point circuits, and perhaps bishops.

Allow us to remind you of
The time Lucius Tunnel went fishing.

The days when Rippel and Brian whooped it up a bit on the campus
by rendering the "T. B. Waltz.
The time when Osborne moved to Dean Nixon's table in the Beanery.

A MESSAGE WORTH WHILE
Do clothes make the man? It is doubtful whether clothes alone
can make any man a success. But at the same time, the man that
is well dressed has a decided advantage over the slovenly, neglected
looking person.
In these days of hasty judgments and high speed business, first
impressions mean a great deal. Your appearance can frequently
be the deciding factor for or against you. Meet the world with
a smile on your face and with your clothes neat and in good taste.
And then you may feel confident that that first impression will be
favorable.
For almost fifty years Romeiser's have been rendering this service
of correctly clothing men and young men. And they are always
ready and eager to render this same service to you.

One time there was
A student who never cut a class.
A professor who was always good-humored.
A co-ed who had to use clubs to beat off the men.
Chicken for dinner in Pearson's Hashery for two weeks.
A Soph who had an over-sized allowance.
Hot water.
Poets like Gerlach are born — and there doesn't seem to be any remedy for it.
We know a co-ed who thinks the postmaster is profiteering every time he
sells her a postage stamp.
Always take a man who makes love awkwardly, for you may be sure he
has had no practice.
We have a philosopher in our midst! Tom Perkins, who does nothing but
contemplate the world, says he can readily see why new-born infants are red
in the face.
McKendree College is an institution of Learning

Vaudeville Show
Some of McKendrees choicest talent was represented at the vaudeville
show given on Homecoming night in the Chapel. The vaudeville was staged
by the members of the Junior class for the benefit of the McKendrean, and the
various members of the entertainment were drawn from local talent. After
the strenuous day of events, the show climaxed McKendree's annual Home-
coming. The performance consisted of IX acts each one of which was worthy
of comment;
Act I. One Act Play '"The Economical Boomerang. "
Kink Rippel and his College Players. Kink is gaining quite a
reputation with his suberb dramatic power and is almost
persuaded to take his company on the road for a season.
Act II. Musical Number — Teague and Hussong.
This duo showed their great talent and versatility as usual.
Act III. McKendree Quartet.
Hussong, Peterson, Brown, and Rippel.
They need no introduction to the student body and the public.
Act IV. Orchestral Presentation.
Brownie and His Kittens.
They have entertained the public on many former occasions.
Act V. The Gayety Girl.
Jewels of the aqua-marine type with hobo tendencies.
Act VI. Musical Number.

This little act explained the atmosphere of mystery that has
always surrounded these two.

Class Fight
One would think our upper-classmen were certain species of the educated
cowboy from the veteran way they handled the ropes that night. It all came
about this way. The Freshmen had planned their annual party but they
were not generous or thoughtful enough (perhaps they didn't know they should)
to tell the grown-ups about it. The party was to take place on Saturday
night, October 9, (when many of the big, rough boys would not be here to
enjoy it). However, the secret-service bureau was working, and before the
clock struck 7:30, the cat was out of the bag.
Two certain young ladies helped two timid Freshmen boys take the right
street car to Trenton, much to their chagrin, for they were in a hurry to go to.
the party. Other young ladies reconnoitered the scene of the festivities and
were greeted most cordially with bouquets of brickbats and bottles and a
deluge of water, while the big heroes of the hour were divesting themselves of
their holiday attire and donning the accoutrements of war.
The war was on. The outposts of the enemy were easily taken and sent
to the rear of the lines nicely tied up. An attack centered on the stairway
proved successful, and the upper-classmen went over the top amid cheers and
vituperations. The next attack centered on the Freshman president, and
when taken, he was placed in solitary confinement in a little school-house
away out in no-man's-land. One by one the captives, after a hard struggle,
were taken from the building and placed under guard. Each prisoner was
treated royally, for he received a ride in a great big car out into the country
and allowed to hike back. After the battle, every one adjourned to the
campus where refreshments were served (at a late hour) and a pond party was
held. Thus ended a perfect day.

McKendree College
McKendree College was founded in 1828. It is the oldest college with
a record of continuous operation west of the Allegheny Mountains. Dur-
ing the Civil War many colleges were forced to close, hut McKendree not
only served the educational need but also had a regiment in the Northern Army
known as the McKendree Regiment.
The present campus consists of twenty acres. Thirty-nine different
varieties of trees some of which are a part of the original forest, offer shade and
add to the natural beauty of the place. The College is located in the highest
part of Lebanon.
There are nine buildings on the campus. Views of si.x of these buildings
are given in the front portion of this annual. Through the generosity of the
late Dr. Benjamin Hypes of St. Louis, McKendree has an enclosed athletic field
which includes a two hundred and twenty yard straight-a-way, a quarter mile
cinder track a baseball diamond, and a football gridiron.
McKendree confers the degrees of A. B. and B. S. in scholastic work. In
conjunction with the college is a splendid Musical Conservatory which confers
degrees in either musical theory or public school music. There are four-year
courses given in piano, voice, and organ music.
The student activities are numerous and varied. There are literary so-
cieties for both men and women. The student body is organized and regulates,
in the main, the activities of the student body. This organization meets every
Friday morning. There are social fraternities and other organizations which
offer a student nearly all the forms of activity which he may desire.
At the next meeting of the North Central Association it is expected that
McKendree will be admitted into full membership. This year graduates are
to be given North Central standing. McKendree is a "B"' class college, but the
entrance of McKendree into this Association will give her graduates a standing
which has long been desired.
