fIRS,  we  have  been  a  graceless  lot.     We  have  cut  your  lectures.     We 

have  neglected  your  courses.    We  have  made  fun  of  your  peculiarities. 

And  you — you   have  been   uniformly  patient.     You  have  held  out 

to  us  noble  ideals,  and  practised  them  before  our  eyes.     You  have 

striven  to  teach  us  many  things,  and  when  we  have  unworthily  requited  you, 

you  have  been  generous  to  our  childishness. 

And  now,  sirs — fortunately,  ere  it  is  quite  too  late — we  begin  to  under- 
stand what  you  have  done  for  us.  In  years  to  come  we  will  realize  it  more 
fully.  Words  have  never  been  our  forte,  and  some  day,  it  may  be,  we  will  try 
to  show  our  gratitude  in  deeds.  But  in  the  meantime,  we  thank  you  for  your 
kindnesses;  and  we  ask  your  pardon  for  our  transgressions.

^^^-^O  you  wlio   are  patient   enough   to  read   this  book,  much  may  seem 
B  J     trivial.     But   for  us  these  pages  record  memories  and  faces  that  it 

^^^  will  ever  be  pleasant  to  recall.  Together  we  have  spent  four  happy 
years —  probably  the  merriest  and  most  carefree  years  that  we  will 
ever  live.  And  now,  as  we  dwell  under  the  shadow  of  our  leavetaking,  we  Iiave 
hastily  gathered  a  few  of  the  jests  and  incidents  that  we  would  not  forget.  This 
is  our  only  excuse — that  we  may  not  forget.     This  is  the  Memor)-  Book  of 


1910 


AVE  ATQUE  VALE 

Mother  of  men,  the  seasons  roll, 
And  from  thy  bosom,  year  by  year, 
Still  dost  thou  wean  the  hungry  soul 
That  fain  would  tarry  with  thee  here. 

Mother  of  men !  O  mother  fond ! 
That  nourished  us  and  held  us  near, 
Mute  with  the  dread  of  things  beyond 
Thy  bosom,  mute  with  memories  here. 

Mother  of  men,  but  with  the  thought 
We  thank  thee  now,  and  with  the  tear. 
Till  from  the  truth  thy  lips  have  taught 
The  fairest  monuments  we  rear. 

Yea,  mighty  works  our  hands  shall  bring 
In  plighted  faith  to  make  more  dear 
Thy  name,  though  other  sons  ma}^  sing 
With  purer  note  and  truer  ear.

Page

the  matter  of  rare  editions  and  old  vintages.  The  leader  of  a  small  but  select 
philosophic  cult  that  slips  away  to  Pocono  once  a  year  there  to  celebrate  its 
unhallowed  rites.  A  friend  of  the  famous  Andrew  McGill,  and  a  dangerous 
man  to  sit  in  front  of  in  the  smoking  car.  President  of  the  Phone  Club.

Larry 

Larrv — an  obvious  Hibernian,  although  he  avers  that  Indiana  is  re- 
sponsible. Co-founder  (with  I.^iny)  of  the  Pretzel  and  Spud  Club,  which  has 
been  a  centre  of  social  activity  in  Barclay  this  year.  Shows  an  unlimited 
capacity  for  absorbing  Economics,  probably  inherited  from  an  avuncular 
relative.  Suspected  as  a  man  with  a  history,  but  careful  search  tlirough  the 
police  files  of  Indianapolis  shows  nothing  worth  mentioning. 


WILLIAM  THOMAS  BOYCE, 


Tvner,  N.  C. 


Bom  Tyner,  N.  C,  Oct.  25,  1S84.  Entered  Senior  Year  from  Guilford 
College.  Senior  Foundation  Scholarship  (4);  Preston  Committee  of  the  Y. 
M.  C.  A.  (4). 


Reverend 

Big  Bill  Boyce.  our  theological  atavism.  The  current  suspicion  is 
that  he  was  discovered  by  Dr.  Hilprecht  in  the  library  at  Nineveh,  looking 
for  an  expurgated  edition  of  "Ibid."  Others  aver  that  he  was  blasted 
from  the  Rock  of  Ages.  An  unnatural  desire  to  enter  the  Cafe  des  Enfants 
was  promptly  checked  by  the  sight  of  the  sign  "Oyster  Bar."  At  the 
Senior  Banquet,  however,  his  exploits  with  a  crfme  de  menthe  punch 
(imder  the  impression  that  it  was  congealed  eau  de  cologne)  made  him  the 
cynosure  of  neighboring  eyes.  Once  discovered  with  false  whiskers  and  blue 
goggles  in  the  third  row  at  the  Troc.  Amusements:  Throwing  the  hammer 
and  putting  the  XXXIX  articles.

Jules 

Here,  gentle  reader,  is  the  Sphinx,  imported  from  the  Philippines  at  a 
cost  of  $40,000,  and  installed  in  these  halls  of  learning  for  a  final  year.  Com- 
pared to  this  individual.  Bush  is  as  loquacious  as  a  Sufi  jiijikin.  Whether  his 
aphasia  is  motor  or  sensory  has  not  as  yet  been  determined,  but  at  table  lie 
signifies  his  modest  needs  by  the  sign  manual.  He  is  most  conspicuous  by 
his  absence.  His  Christmas  vacation  ended  some  time  in  February  and  his 
migration  to  The  Colgate  Soap  Factory  for  the  Spring  vacation  took  place 
about  April  1st.  At  the  present  writing  he  is  not  in  evidence  but  is  expected 
by  Commencement  Eve  at  the  latest.     Motto:  "Ten  Nights  in  Singapore."

XI  (4);  Advisory  Board  (3,  4);  Soccer  H  (4). 


Earl 


Earl  is  most  frequently  seen  in  conjunction  with  an  old  brown  hat 
which  has  become  a  venerable  landmark.  Early  in  his  career  he  was  a  favorite 
performer  at  the  Friday  Night  Sessions.  Has  often  been  seen  in  Ardmore 
after  dark  in  very  dubious  company.  Particularly  memorable  is  his  work  in 
connection  with  the  Junior  Play.  Well  known  as  an  advocate  of  the  coeduca- 
tionalization  of  Fifth  Day  Meeting.

DONALD   BUSH  GARY,

Bush 

Bush,  otherwise  known  as  Coirsix  Uo.\*  Dox — our  silent  enigma  from 
the  Bivalve  City.  A  liberal  patron  of  Life,  the  theatre  and  the  card-table 
On  account  of  his  hairstand  and  an  unlimited  supply  of  Makaroff  cigarets, 
he  has  been  taken  for  a  Russian  count  in  exile.  This  is  probably  a  tnistake. 
Early  in  life  he  developed  a  capacity  for  dignified  ease,  which  explains 
much,  including  a  postponed  exam,  in  English  IV.  Senior  Year  extended 
his  jurisdiction  to  Bryn  Mawr  and  the  Barclay  Hall  piano,  and  he  is  sus- 
pected as  a  victim  of  the  gentlest  passion.  His  tenor  voice  and  caustic 
humor  need  no  comment.  Motto:  "A  good  wine  needs  no  Bush."  French 
Cricket  H  (i,  2,  3,  4).

ship (3);  Class  President  (4). 


Chastity 

CinsTiTY,  even  at  this  early  age,  shows  symptoms  of  the  raised  eyebrow 
which  has  so  often  been  observed  after  ten  o'clock  P.  M.  One  of  the  leaders 
of  the  Lloyd  Hall  Aristocracy,  he  frequently  slips  away  quietly  during  the 
evening  and  is  later  to  be  seen  adorning  Chestnut  Street  with  high  hat  and 
cane.  Before  his  infectious  giggle  even  the  dairymaids  of  Pocono  have 
capitulated.  Has  introduced  from  Germany  a  line  of  iridescent  socks  which 
(with  his  hairstand)  have  been  the  wonder  of  his  friends.  Avocations: 
Rimning  for  the  class  Presidency,  weddings,  and  blue  spectacles.

HOLLIE   ERNEST  CROW.

Vniversity.     Senit>r  Foundation  Scholarship  (4) ;  Glee  Club  (4) ;  Operett.!  (4). 


HOLLIE 

Wholly  Ernest — the  Blessed  Damozel — Madame  Patti  in  disguise. 
As  a  tripper  of  the  light  fantastic  toe  he  has  Isadora  Duncan  backed  off  the 
boards.  The  only  member  of  the  class  with  the  courage  of  his  convictions. 
Notice  the  lines  of  care  in  the  picture,  due  either  to  the  above-mentioned 
courage  or  perhaps  merely  to  a  year's  residence  in  .\rdmore.

EDWARD  WANDELL  DAVID, 


Germantown,  Pa. 


Bom  Germantown,  Nov.  i,  1889.  Entered  Freshman  Year  from  German- 
town  Friends'  School.  Corporation  Scholarship  (1,2,3,4);  Class  Gym-

Grounds  Committee  (4) 


Our   Eddy 

This  is  the  Thinking  Machine  two  years  after  having  been  wound  up. 
Throughout  its  college  career  it  neither  smoked  nor  sware  until  elected  Business 
Manager  of  the  Class  Record.  It  still  eschews  the  weed.  It  is  tmable  to  sleep 
except  in  a  Mission  folding  bed,  which  has  occasionally  been  closed  upon  it  in 
the  night.  Diversions:  bridge,  chess,  mathematics  and  managerships.  On 
account  of  its  ability  to  juggle  figures  has  frequently  been  entrusted  with  the 
class  funds.  Our  Eddy  also  exhibits  a  nasal  erubescence  that  has  been  traced 
to  premature  indulgence  in  Y.  M.  C.  A.  activities.

Henrv 

A  moonshiner  from  North  Carolina,  where  he  operates  a  corn-whiskey 
still  by  the  absentee  system.  The  Henry  Davis  snifter  has  been  introduced  at 
the  Pink  Pussy  with  gratifying  results.  His  phenomenal  speed  on  the  cinder 
path  has  been  traced  to  years  of  training  in  eluding  a  posse  of  sheriffs.  Appa- 
rently human,  but  has  been  denied  objective  reality  on  account  of  his  complete 
elimination  from  the  curriculum  of  all  unnecessary  phonetics.  Meals  (4). 
Required  Lectures  (4).      Kiftli  Day  Meeting  (4).

Cabinet  (4) ;  Member  of  Triangle  Society. 


Skinny  Grinner 

Skinny  Grinner,  sometimes  yclept  Nelly  or  the  Sea-green  Pussy,  shows 
even  in  extreme  youth  her  amiable  peculiarities.  Not  the  least  of  these  are 
a  wildly  vacant  expression,  a  Titianesque  head  and  a  weakness  for  Memory 
Courses.  As  a  designer  of  scenery  and  stage  carpenter  she  is  unsurpassed. 
She  and  her  husband  Kendy  are  firm  believers  in  the  delights  of  Dairy  Life, 
having  occupied  the  same  chum  for  three  years.  Favorite  Diversion:  Tea 
meetings  and  a  few  convolutions  on  the  parallel  bars.  Is  suspected  of  having 
contracted  a  clandestine  marriage.

RALPH  ROSCOE  ELSE, 


Oskaloosa,  Iowa

College.  Senior  Foundation  Scholarship  (4) ;  Football  Team  (4) ;  Glee  Club

Winner  of  Alumni  Oratorical  Contest  (4) ;  Track  H  (4). 


Ralph 

We  have  but  few  data,  but  R.\lph  is  suspected  of  a  dubious  past 
Known  to  us  as  a  football  player,  hypnotist  and  hurler  of  the  classic 
disc,  but  rumor  hath  it  his  earlier  years  have  been  otherwise  spent  in  the 
purlieus  of  Oskaloosa.  Since  coming  to  Haverford  he  plays  cards,  smokes 
cigarets  with  abanflon,  and  has  even  drained  a  bumper  of  Hires'  Root  Beer. 
Has  been  seen  furtively  returning  from  Ardmore,  but  it  is  hoped  that  our 
suspicions  in  this  direction  are  unfounded.  Future  occupation:  Professor 
of  Psychology  at  Bryn  Mawr.

CHARLES  MITCHELL  FROELICHER, 


Baltimore,  Md. 


Born  Media,  Pa.,  June  29,  18S9.  Entered  Freshman  Year  from  Baltimore

Club  (3) ;  Operetta  (4);     Track  H  (4). 


Mitch 

This  is  our  Hercules  at  9  months  6  days,  displaying  a  chubby  toothless 
unsophistication  which  the  tall  and  rugged  cynic  of  to-day  has  long  since 
discarded.  The  sweetest  songbird  in  our  cage,  not  even  exceeded  by  Jeff's 
nightingale.  Mitch  can  do  less  work  in  more  time  than  any  other  man  in 
college.  He  can  tie  knots  in  iron  pokers  and  even  Alf  is  afraid  of  him.  Week- 
ends physicking  at  Swarthmore,  hair-cuts  at  Binder's,  expensive  neckties,  all- 
night  cards  and  a  genial  materialism — these  are  his  amiable  weaknesses. 
His  philosophy,  he  says,  we  will  understand  when  we  mature.  He  recognizes 
no  categorical  imperative  except  that  of  Bryn  Mawr  on  a  moonlit  night.

Kid 


Harold — alias  the  Kid,  alias  Tkilbv,  alias  Big  Babe,  a  loose-jointcil 
gangling  succession  of  ganglia — a  genial  New  Jersey  excrescence  Physi- 
ologically considered,  a  mere  mass  of  funny  bones  and  humorous  veins.  The 
phrase  "Homeric  laughter"  was  coined  to  describe  the  peculiar  snort  with 
which  he  has  sometimes  cheered  us  in  Fifth  Day  Meetings.  Known  as  the 
Beardless  Wonder;  his  excessive  activity  in  cricket,  soccer  and  tennis  having 
robbed  him  of  all  facial  vegetation.

EVAN  PENNOCK  GHEEN, 


West  Chester,  Pa. 


Bom  West  Chester,  Pa.,  March  4,  1890.  Entered  Freshman  Year  from 
West  Chester  Friends'  School.  Freshman  Baseball  Team  (1);  Class  Soccer 
Team  (2,  3,  4) ;  First  Soccer  Team  (4) ;  Soccer  H  (4). 


Skeet 

An  early  picture  of  Skeet,  our  unclassified  by-product  of  West  Chester. 
His  week-end  absences  from  college  have  been  the  salvation  of  the  pool  parlors 
of  his  home  town,  and  the  subject  of  much  regretful  comment  by  his  sorrowing 
friends.  His  diversions  include  innumerable  games  of  500,  a  semi-annual 
visit  to  the  Casino,  and  surreptitious  jaunts  to  a  pawnbroker  in  Philadelphia. 
A  Pinkerton  sleuth  once  unearthed  a  cache  of  hairpins  and  a  can  of  Talcum 
Powder  in  his  bureau  drawer,  which  has  led  to  suspicions  of  ulterior  motives 
in  his  week-end  trips.  Generally  naively  unphilosophical,  but  when  the 
eternal  verities  are  broached  he  shows  no  hesitation  to  brandish  a  neo-Rufusian 
argument.

was  stranded  in  Baltimore  recently,  and  impromptu  chorus  laddie.  As 
easy-going  as  a  Baker  electric  and  about  as  fast.  He,  too,  knows  how  to  jilay 
the  beau  and  frolic  with  the  fair  co-ed.  A  more  accomplished  Thespian  never 
trod  the  boards.  His  masterly  portrayal  of  the  much  maligned  Registrar 
has  led  to  the  suspicion  that  their  resemblance,  physical  and  otherwise,  has 
a  foundation  in  relationship.     Motto:  "Damn  the  expensel"

HARRISON  STREETER  HIRES, 


Haverford,  Pa. 


Bom  Philadelphia,  May  31,  18S7.  Entered  Sophomore  Year  from  igog. 
Associate  Editor  of  the  llaverfordian  (3,  4);  Assistant  Manager  (3);  Business 
Manager  (4);  Assistant  Manager  of  Class  Record  (4). 


Jeff 


Even  at  two  years  Jeff  shows  that  introspective  Weltschmerz  that  makes 
him  our  only  representative  of  the  lyric  cry.  His  career  shows  the  influence 
of  several  great  spirits,  among  others  Marcus  Aurelius,  Maeterlinck  and  Egg 
Nogg.  His  amusements  include  the  business  managership  of  the  Haverfordian, 
water-waggoning  and  the  cultivation  of  the  philosophic  argument  with  Rufus 
Jones.  Quite  early  in  his  college  course  he  was  divorced  from  igog  and 
entered  igio,  but  his  early  affiliations  may  still  be  discerned  in  his  use  of  the 
epithet  "trusty.  "  His  well-known  corduroy  suit  and  anecdotes  of  the  West 
have  given  him  the  title  of  "The  Beloved  Vagabond.  "

Leiny 

Thefirst  authentic  portrait  of  the  Old  Dutch  Cleanser.  Note  theeanny 
expression,  which  augurs  well  for  the  future  of  the  stocking  industry.  He 
came  upon  us  without  warning  in  Junior  Year,  since  when  he  has  learned  to 
smoke  half  a  pipe  at  a  time,  play  cards  and  go  to  Keith's.  But  two  things 
have  been  known  to  stir  his  emotionless  stolidity — (i)  a  plate  of  Wienenvurst

Henry 

Henry,  our  only  living  Dromedary,  is  better  known  at  the  Pennsylvania 
Motor  Works  than  at  Haverford,  where  he  preserves  an  uncompromising 
silence.  Like  the  Dromedary,  Henry  can  go  eight  days  without  a  drink. 
Since  Freshman  Year,  however,  he  has  developed  remarkably,  and  has 
been  known  to  pass  the  door  of  the  Rathskeller  without  even  a  shudder. 
Well  acquainted  with  the  stage  entrances  of  Philadelphia  and  a  great  favorite

Reg 


The  biographer  despairs  to  convey  an  adequate  impression  of  this  re- 
markable Social  Problem.  Reg's  deep  set  eyes  and  ascetic  features  have  long 
been  the  admiration  of  his  disciples.  His  ability  as  a  public  speaker,  his  droll 
humor,  his  fluent  speech,  his  drawl,  are  all  unique.  His  irrepressible  vein  of 
levity  would  carry  him  to  the  guillotine  with  a  jest.  He  is  always  ready  for 
whatever  may  turn  up,  be  it  a  midwinter  swim  in  Darby  Creek,  an  expedition 
to  Beechwood,  or  a  slumming  trip  to  Kugler's.  Has  been  taken  for  a  Theolo-

J.  P. 


Formerly  J.  P.,  now  known  as  a  Teaching  Fellow,  this  is  the  most  scientific 
follower  of  the  East  Aurora  Sage.  A  man  of  many  sorrows,  but  averse  to  the 
exhibition  of  proletarian  enthusiasm  or  any  profound  emotion.  A  precisian 
in  attire,  he  affects  the  fawn-colored  shoe  and  the  glimmering  spectacle.  The 
unbending  dignity  and  exquisite  and  tender  melancholy  which  characterize 
his  equine  evolutions  in  the  gym.  have  elicited  universal  admiration.  The 
same  mournful  reserve  and  sage  advice  insure  the  future  success  of  the  Athletic 
Council.  Member  of  the  7.  A.  B.  Society.  Frequently  observed  in  respectful 
argument  with  the  D.  D.  D.

Rab — one  o£  the  ten  lost  tribes — a  Talmudic  deposit  wliich  even  four  years 
of  day-studentry  has  failed  to  efface.  Has  never  been  known  to  eat  or  sleep

from  room  to  rotjtn  in  pursuit  of  Bib.  Lit.  notes.  Audible  only  in  Forensics,

Alf 

Bat  RoBEkTS — the  Hardest  Xut  ever  dropped  from  the  Westtown  Tree — 
was  bom  (like  Aphnjflite)  from  the  sea-foam,  but  experienced  a  decided  renais- 
sance on  coming  to  Haverford  in  1906.  When  hit  over  the  head  by  a  riot-stick 
(during  the  trolley-strike)  the  only  result  was  to  bruise  his  feet.  He  and  Reg 
form  an  invincilile  and  inimitable  pair  well-known  on  Race  and  Vine  Streets. 
His  jaw,  his  glare,  and  his  gradual  absorption  of  French  are  historic.  Favorite

Horace 

No  signs  in  the  lower  picture  of  the  polished  dome  so  resplendent  above. 
From  a  distance  our  Horace  has  often  been  mistaken  for  the  Capitol.  As  he 
is  a  man  of  some  antiquity  the  general  opinion  is  that  his  lack  of  hirsute 
adornment  is  the  result  of  erosion.  He  plays  California  Jack  as  though  bom 
on  the  Golden  Gate  and  dipped  by  his  matemal  relative  in  San  Francisco  Bay.

BALLAD  OF  CLASSMATES  GONE 


I 

We  ask  not  after  last  year's  snow 

Nor  after  ladies  long  since  dead 
Nor  where  the  meat  gets  its  rainbow 

With  which  on  Mondays  we  are  fed. 
Another  question  in  our  head 

There  comes,  that  "gars  us  greet"  full  sore- 
Where  are  our  former  cronies  sped  ? 

Where  are  the  classmates  known  of  yore? 


Ill 

Pat,  who  knew  to  draw  the  bow 

And  frolic  with  the  fair  co-ed ; 
Jud,  reveller  in  Boccaccio, 

And  in  Sylvanus  Stall  well-read ; 
Sellew,  to  "Kappa  Sigma"  wed, 

Beer,  Wang,  Putz,  Joe,  and  many  more — 
Where  are  these  genial  spirits  fled  ? 

Where  are  the  classmates  known  of  yore  ? 


II 

Good  old  Syd,  who  long  ago 

The  Literary  meetings  led, 
Whose  voice  emotional  would  grow 

When  "East  is  East"  was  sung  or  said; 
Calley,  who,  when  his  dog  was  dead 

And  when  the  shot  had  pierced  his  floor 
Took  to  astronomy  instead — 

Where  are  the  classmates  known  of  yore? 


ENVOY. 

Comrades!  A  backward  glance  bestow 
On  those  that  were  with  us  before, 

And  ask  (now  we  ourselves  must  go) 

Where  are  the  classmates  known  of  yore?

If  we  could  have  recorded  the  pulse  beat  of  Haverfonl  College  some  time  toward  the  end  of  September 
1906,  the  sphygmograph  would  have  registered  a  very  noticeable  tremor  at  the  end  of  each  beat.  What 
was  the  cause?  A  new  Freshman  class  had  entered,  the  largest  in  numbers  the  college  had  ever  seen.  From 
the  very  first  this  class  had  shown  an  unheard  of  audacity  in  disregarding  time-honored  customs  and 
obser\-ances  hallowed  by  antiquity.  A  new  epoch  had  begun -a  veritable  break  with  the  past.  And 
could  the  energy  and  imagination  of  this  class  but  be  kept  within  the  bounds  of  law  and  order  during  its 
nonage,  until  the  soberness  of  Sophomoric  dignity  should  lend  forethought  to  action,  it  was  evident  that 
great  things  would  be  the  result.  And  time  has  justified  the  thrill  which  trembled  in  the  heart  of  the 
ancient  institution. 

Can  it  be  but  four  years  ago  that  some  fifty  fellows  came  together  for  the  first  time  to  fomt  the 
class  of  1910?  Only  twenty-two  of  those  men  are  now  left.  But  more  have  come  to  take  the  place  of  the 
departed  ones,  and  the  original  nucleus  has  ever  been  strong  enough  to  lead  the  newcomers  in  the  proper 
paths.  During  these  four  years  great  changes  have  taken  place.  We  have  seen  the  long  contemplated 
water-tight  bulkheads  put  into  Barclay  Hall.  We  have  seen  the  Hanging  Gardens  of  Babylon  relegated  into 
outer  darkness.  We  have  seen  the  Seventy-Fifth  Anniversary  of  Haverford.  We  have  seen  a  change  of 
dynasty  in  the  dean's  office.  We  have  seen  the  inauguration  of  that  now  famous  institution,  The  Dairy. 
We  have  seen  the  opening  of  the  Haverford  Union.     We  have — but  we  anticipate. 

In  the  individuals  there  have  been  great  changes  too.  Space  forbids  our  tracing  Kendy'sdeveIo])nunt 
from  a  meek  Germantown  student  to  a  hold  and  rabid  journalist,  or  the  process  liy  which  our  George  became 
a  self-made  fjoet.  Then  there  was  a  certain  roly-poly  felU.w  called  "Sus"  who  has  .since  become  "Mistah" 
Morley,  President  of  the  V.  M.  C.  A.  and  a  Governor  "f  the  Haverford  Union.     It  is  hard  to  believe  it  all.

We  will  not  soon  forget  the  details  of  our  stomi}-  entrance.     As  the  Bab  Ballads  put  it,  they  are 
"Photographically  lined  on  the  tablets  of  our  mind." 

Before  the  campaign  opened  officially  we  sat  around  in  desultory  groups  in  our  little  studies  sur- 
rounded by  four  bare  walls  and  a  bunch  of  useless  text-books  sold  us  by  upperclassmen.  Nellie  went 
around  from  room  to  room,  and  the  sight  of  some  one  looking  even  more  worried  than  ourselves  had  a 
cheering  influence.  He  tried  to  tell  us  something  about  sitting  still  in  collection,  but  he  jibbered  so 
that  we  couldn't  make  it  out.     The  poor  boy  has  never  gotten  over  that  habit. 

We  have  always  felt  sorry  for  the  class  that  was  compelled  to  act  as  preceptor  of  our  Freshman 
exuberance.  We  feel  that  they  meant  well,  but  their  task  was  indeed  a  hard  one.  However,  we  will  not 
deny  that  they  went  about  it  with  a  will.  We  pee-raded  after  meeting,  and  later  barked  at  the  moon  for  their 
amusement.  We  were  the  first  class  on  whom  the  soap-slide  was  not  inflicted.  Many  of  the  Faculty  were 
in  favor  of  the  continuation  of  this  revered  custom  on  account  of  the  sanitary  advantages  attached  to  it 
and  the  fact  that  it  was  in  itself  a  most  salutory  renovation  of  the  ground  floor  in  Barclay.  But  it  was 
forbidden,  and  so  the  ingenuity  of  igog  devised  the  train-wreck.  Who  will  ever  forget  the  harrowing  scene 
enacted  under  the  pale,  pitying  rays  of  the  moon  when  owing  to  an  open  switch  the  two  limited  trains 
crashed  together?  The  engine  of  one  train  parted  with  several  teeth,  which  it  afterwards  cost  the  Sopho- 
mores some  twenty-five  dollars  to  restore.  It  is  said  the  campus  was  strewn  with  wreckage  for  many  yards, 
and  certainly  the  shrieks  of  the  dying  and  groans  of  the  injured  were  heard  as  far  as  Roberts  Hall,  judging 
from  the  remarks  in  collection  the  ne.xt  day. 

We  had  made  our  entry  into  College  well  known  on  the  first  night  by  distributing  wholesale  over 
the  campus  thousands  of  paper  shps  with  1910  printed  on  them,  and  we  had  to  suffer  the  consequences. 
On  Friday  evenings  Earl  and  other  offenders  had  private  "seances"  which  they  bore  stoically.  On  one 
of  these  occasions  Earl  wore  some  numerals  not  his  by  rights. 

Soon,  however,  we  started  to  make  our  own  amusements.  Alas!  They  were  not  appreciated  by 
all,  and  that  long,  but  now  defunct  Hall  in  Barclay  was  more  than  ever  before  referred  to  as  "  Freshman 
Hell."  Still,  it  was  rather  a  misnomer.  To  be  sure,  .some  things  may  have  been  a  little  shady,  but  if 
every  adventure  succeeded,  where  would  the  adventurer  be?  Here  it  was  that  Esh  started  the  incubator 
which  would  undoubtedly  have  made  his  fortune  if  it  hadn't  come  near  ruining  all  his  clothes.  Here 
Sydney  Horner,  in  quick  accordance  with  Ike's  suggestion,  founded  the  hterary  society  over  which  he  was 
unanimously  chosen  to  preside.     The  society  grew  and  flourished,  and  none  of  its  members  will  ever  forget 

48 


the  tones,  vibrating  with  emotion,  in  which  he  declaimed  "O  East  is  East,  and  West  is  West;"  nor  that 
meeting  held  in  the  gymnasium  during  which  he  addressed  the  members  from  his  perch  on  the  flying  rings 
manv  feet  up  in  the  air  It  was  under  the  inspiration  of  this  society  that  Meigs  Oliver  Frost  (our  first 
President)  edited  his  famous  "Court  Notes,"  and  Beer  wrote  the  stirring  ballad  of  the  Zion-Hades 
football  game,  while  Langsdorf  and  Calley  became  famous  as  the  authors  of  many  vivid  tales  and  parlor 
stories.  Another  great  achievement  was  the  erection  of  the  memorial  tablets  in  South  Barclay  in 
commemoration  of  the  action  of  a  certain  notorious  upper-classman  They  were  inscribed  in  twenty-one 
different  languages,  and  were  only  erected  after  a  long  discussion  instead  of  a  monument  of  rectangular 
building  stones,  which  Stew  Martin  and  others  favored.     Reg's  oratory,  however,  finally  won  the  day. 

Naturally  there  had  to  be  some  class  horsing.  The  customary  way  to  end  the  evening  was  to  visit  the 
Morley-Greene  lumber  yard  at  Merion,  and  then,  after  the  lights  were  out.  to  dump  Henry,  or  J.  P.,  or 
English  Phil,  who  did  not  quite  know  what  to  make  of  it  all.  Tom  Clark  used  to  work  off  his  exuberant 
spirits  on  Donald  Mac,  the  Bard  of  Upland  Even  the  professors  didn't  escape.  Hanky  was  pestered 
bv  alarm  clocks  in  his  desk,  under  the  platform,  and  up  the  chimney,  and  once  his  public  speaking  class 
was  disturlied  by  the  entry  of  several  eggs  through  the  open  windows.  At  another  time  Guy,  in  con- 
sideration of  Sio.oo  collected  by  subscription,  fainted  dead  away  during  a  recitation.  The  class  quickly 
broke  up  and  carried  him  to  his  room,  where  Dr.  Hancock  came  on  him  ten  minutes  later  dancing  a  jig. 
The  nightly  rough-house  in  Barclay  finally  became  so  bad  that  by  common  agreement  it  was  limited  to 
Wednesdays.  Then  pandemonium  would  indeed  break  loose,  and  fires  would  burn  merrily  up  and 
down  the  halls,  and  self-constituted  fire  companies  would  manipulate  the  ext  nguishers.  The  President, 
however,  charged  each  of  the  participants  S2.00  for  "moral  effect."  There  was  one  night  also  when  the 
Sophomores  attended  their  banquet,  and  on  returning  failed  to  find  their  beds  ready  when  they  needed 
them  most,  — in  spite  of  Loewenstein's  faithful  efforts.  Other  amusements  were  found  outside  the 
dormitories.  Some  went  to  meeting  for  the  first  time  and  brought  back  precious  ideas  concerning  people 
who  made  their  exits  with  their  backs  to  the  door  in  front  of  them  And  who  will  ever  forget  seeing  Alf 
Roberts,  Alf  the  Swift,  Alf  the  Terrible,  one  snowy  night,  clad  in  the  fewest  of  clothes,  climb  to  the 
swaying  top  of  a  tall  k)cust  tree  for  the  sum  of  nincty-nme  cents  contributed  by  admiring  spectators. 
Then  in  Merion,  Ichabod  Willie  used  to  sit  up  night  after  night,  cross-le.gged  in  his  pajamas,  playing 
to  his  clamoring  classmates. 

Perhaps  we  had  better  pass  over  the  time  when  Earl  liastily  crossed  the  campus  in  a  costume  of 
antideluvian  simplicity;  also  our  experiences  when  J.  P.  (even  then  interested  in  medicine)  dosed  a  harmless 

•I!) 


kitten  with  pills.  But  we  must  not  forget  to  mention  the  time  Kendy  served  as  a  model  for  Babbitt's 
lecture  on  anatomy.  It  was  about  this  time  too  that  Ike  came  into  the  political  limelight,  and  we  all  made 
a  grand  torch-light  procession  to  "Powell  Hall,  Bryn  Mawr, "  in  a  futile  effort  to  send  him  to  the  legislature. 
In  the  holidays  Jack  and  Jud  spent  some  profitable  time  near  Coatesvillc,  selling  the  complete  works 
of  one  Sylvanus  Stall.  At  College,  in  the  meanwhile,  Merion  Cottage  caught  fire  in  the  basement.  Rube 
was  discovered  on  the  third  floor  vainly  trying  to  roll  an  empty  ice  cooler  to  the  scene  of  action.  However, 
as  soon  as  the  flames  had  consumed  all  his  clothes,  he  came  to  the  rescue  and  helped  put  it  out.  Spring 
came,  and  brought  those  bitterly  contested  games  of  wogglebug  cricket,  the  gentle  sport  of  French  cricket, 
and  last  but  not  least,  Pete  Spaulding's  famous  baseball  team.  Ma  Mayers  and  Syd  pitched.  Jack  caught. 
Camel  Froelicher  played  first  base,  and  Skeet  helped  swallow  up  the  flies  in  the  outfield.  The  uniforms 
were  most  imposing,  though  they  were  forced  to  part  with  some  of  the  insignia.  Tradition  now  has  it 
that  once  they  almost  won  a  game.     At  last  vacation,  and  those  Sophomore  hats!

The  second  year— our  year — had  begun.  We  had  proudly  welcomed  Alf,  sleek  and  smiling,  after 
his  outing  at  Beach  Haven  with  the  football  squad;  we  had  smiled  at  the  President's  annual  warning;  we 
had  bought  the  Sophomoric  cigaret  at  Harbaugh's;  and  now  under  our  strawberry-colored  hats  we 
sauntered  nonchalantly  aliout  the  campus,  casting  disdainfvil  glances  upon  the  trembling  "rhinies. "  With 
characteristic  aptitude  we  had  readily  resumed  the  course  of  our  easy-going  existence. 

Our  first  Sophomore  class-meeting  was  held  in  the  old  Collection  Room  in  Barclay  at  the  witching 
hour  of  ten  P.  M.  The  September  thunder-storm  which  raged  without  seemed  fiuite  in  accord  with  our 
stem  Byronic  mood  as  Beer  doled  out  to  us  those  memorable  orders  such  as  "Pete:  Reheve  Syd,  7.30,  N. 
Barclay.  Guard  7.30-12."  Our  hazing  campaign  was  conducted  with  a  systematic  efficiency  to  which 
Napoleon's  plans  at  Marathon  were  as  nothing. 

What  a  difference  tv\-elve  months  had  made!  Only  a  year  before  we  liail  gatlicrcd  under  llic 
Lon.v  <:of»«i!(;;i.v  with  foreboding  in  our  hearts.  Now  it  was  "  Hat  off,  Fresh!"  "Make  it  snapjjy,  there!" 
And  how  much  more  pleasant  to  watch  y.'/jcnv  l.iark  at  the  moon,  disintegrate  the  ("lallagerian  locust  or 
declaim  mouthing  an  un-nogged  egg. 

Our  hazing  policy  was  to  make  the  actual  period  of  "horsing"  short  Init  vigorous;  after  this  lo 
treat  the  Freshmen  as  friends  and  Haverfordians;  and  to  regard  them  as  gentleman  throughout.  This  last, 
beitadderl,  was  an  innovation.  Nineteen  Hundred  and  Ten  was  the  first  class  to  establish  the  new  relation 
between  Sophomores  and  Freshmen  and  to  take  a  decided  stand  in  the  abolition  of  hazing.  To  ignore  a 
bumptious  Freshman  is  probably  as  effective  a  snub  as  rubbing  molasses  in  his  hair,  and  certainly  much 
more  dignified. 

However,  we  carried  out  the  minor  traditions,  such  as  i)unching  a  hcjle  in  the  ceiling  over  Esh's 
Incubator  and  percolating   H3O  onto   the  rhinie  beneath.     The  Freshman  Entertainment  was  a  distinct 


uccess,  although  Calley's  heelprints  in  the  ceihng  were  unmarred  by  any  rivals.   The  Friday  night  session 
were  enHvened  b\-  melodious  rendering  of  the  old  English  ditty  "And  he  rode,  and  lie  rode,  without  any  fear." 

The  cane  rush  and  the  bridge  rush,  both  of  which  we 
won,  should  not  be  forgotten.  These,  however,  can  hardly 
be  called  "hazing,"  as  both  sides  had  to  struggle  equally 
strenuously.  The  bridge  rush  was  the  last  of  its  kind,  the 
Faculty  forbidding  its  continuance.  Perhaps  they  were 
unduly  influenced  by  the  vivid  account  of  the  struggle  which 
appeared  in  a  Philadelphia  paper.  We  reproduce  it  on  the 
next  page  as  the  only  existing  parallel  to  the  journalism  of 
the  Queckly. 

But  of  the  class  individually.  Unfortunately  the 
exodus,  which  has  taken  so  many  of  our  members  from  us, 
had  already  begun.  Nat,  Meigs,  Fern  Law,  Putz,  Perry 
Beaver,  Charlie  Frutchey,  Kid  Sholem  and  Jakie  were  gone. 
We  had  replaced  the  old  Tub  with  a  new  one.  Ma's  clarinet 
no  longer  awoke  the  echoes  of  Barclay,  and  his  permanent 

_ union  suit  and  cheerful  Maine  drawl  were  only  a  memory. 

cli)      "  'Ts^irH'SiTH"-^'^'^-™"''™'"""'''^"        I  Willie  had  taken  his  beloved  'cello  to  Harvard  where  he  is 

now  busily  engaged  in  writing  poetry  worthy  of  his  early 
affiliations.  Phil  had  gone  back  to  "jolly  old  England" 
from  whence  we  hear  of  records  broken  at  Cambridge  in  the 
same  way  in  which  he  smashed  ours  here. 

On  the  other  hand  we  were  joined  by  the  amiable  but 
evanescent  Lufkin  who   twittered   a  while  and   then  unob- 
trusively left.     Jeff  (ye  Muses  pause  to  listen !)  came  among 
us.     Later  we  were  honored  by  a  brief  visit  from  another 
A.  S.  R. — "Roberts   recent" — otherwise  known    as    Sellew. 
The  attempts  of  the  improvised  rival   fraternities  to  initiate  him,    his    services  as  a    steward   in 
the  dining-hall,  his  speech  to  the  college  assembled  on  Founders  steps,  and  his  subsequent  flutter  from  the 
Acer  sacchariniim  to  the  Barclay  Hall  tower — these  have  become  the  frequent  subject  of  song  and  story.

The  "Sophs."  by  clever  nianoeu\Ting,  ob- 
tained possession  of  the  narrow  bridge,  and, 
like  the  **thin  red  line"  of  WelUnKton  s  High- 
landers at  the  battle  of  Waterloo,  they  awaited 
the  onslaught  of  the  despised  Freshmen.  They 
all  entirely  disrobed,  being  attired  only  in 
their  trousers.  They  stcmd  there  Uke  a  stone 
wall,  forty  strong,  prepared  to  make  a  gallant 
resistance  to  the  invading  ht^t. 

The  "Sophs"  stood  in  a  mass  in  the  centre 
of  the  bridge,  reminding  the  crowd  who  saw 
them  of  the  brave  Horatius  and  his  friends 
in  the  old  da>'s  of  Rome.  Filled  with  the 
"do-or-die"  spirit,  they  believed  they  were 
strong  enough  to  repell  the  invading  Freshmen. 
At  11.50,  when  the  rush  was  officially  declared 
on.  the  latter  rushed  forward  in  a  body,  but 
were  hurled  back  by  the  "Sophs."  The  "Fresh- 
ics"  then  lifted  J.  K.  Patrick  upon  their  shoul- 
ders and  attempted  to  pass  him  over  the  heads  of 
the  "Sophs."  A  terrific  struggle  then  took 
place.  Shirts  were  torn  from  backs,  trousers 
were  ripped  open,  faces  were  scratched,  ears 
were  nearly  torn  off,  eyes  were  gouged  and 
blood  flowed  in  streams  from  the  heads  of  many 
of  the  participants  of  the  rush.  But,  worst  of 
all.  it  appeared  at  times  during  the  battle  as 
if  Patrick  would  be  hurled  over  the  side  of  the 
bridge  and  have  his  b<int.'s  broken  on  the  road 
far  below.  Fortunately,  he  escaped  that  fate. 
but  he  never  reached  the  other  side  of  the 
Sophomore  line.  His  head  got  through,  but 
that  was  all.  The  "Sophs"  succeeded  in  pre- 
venting his  entire  body  from  reaching  the 
other  end  of  the  bridge. 

SOPHS  WIN'  THE  FIGHT. 

The  Freshmen  put  up  a  heroic  fight,  which. 
had  the  time  allotted  for  the  contest  been 
lengthened  a  moment,  they  might  have  won. 
but  at  the  end  of  the  four  minutes  the  time- 
keepers declared  the  struaglc  was  off.  the  Sophs 
still  being  in  poswssion  of  the  bridge. 

John  Wtls-jn.  the  president  of  the  Sopho- 
more Class,  put  up  a  IxiUI  defence.  He  sus- 
tained many  bruises  and  lacerations,  and  when 
the  rush  was  at  its  worst  it  seemed  as  though 
the  couragcfius  \Vilsr«n  would  be  dismembered. 
At  the  clffsc  of  the  fight,  the  bridwe  resembled 
both  a  junk  shop  and  a  slaughter  house.  It 
was  littered  with  parts  of  shirts  and  trousers, 
and    here    and    there    were    little    p<x)ls    of    the 

Kcious  bl'MMl  of  the  warriors.  Bunches  of 
r.  Ux>.  were  found  uiKin  the  wooden  floor 
of  the  bridge.  It  was  a  great  fight.  Both  sides 
struggled  desrwrately  to  win.  but  the  laurel 
of  vicU'vy  must  be  officially  awarded  to  the 
"S^^phs."  .Vcjtt  time  the  "Freshics"  may  be 
the  victors. 


Unfortunately  the  ill  health  so  noticeable  during  the  pre- 
ceding year  was  not  yet  outgrown.  Stomach  trouble  w^as  chronic. 
Stew  was  subject  to  nervous  break-downs.  Guy  had  developed 
insomnia,  and  took  to  automobiling.  J.  P.  had  to  go  South. 
Even  the  staid  Charlie  began  to  show  signs  of  absent-mindedness 
and  was  discovered  one  evening  to  have  carefully  jilaced  his  shoes 
on  the  bureau  and  his  military  brushes  under  the  bed  and  to  have 
hung  his  towel  in  the  closet  leaving  his  overcoat  on  the  towel  rack. 
But  despite  these  maladies  the  class  began  to  blossom  out.  Some 
"gathered  rosebuds"  in  the  vicinity  of  Eighth  and  Walnut,  some 
turned  to  religion  for  solace,  as  Jud.  who  taught  "First  Day  School" 
and  J.  P.,  who  was  Secretary  of  the  Y.  M.  C.  A.  Some  turned  to 
the  opera  and  it  is  confidently  believed  that  Caruso's  great  success 
that  season  was  primarily  due  to  the  ability  of  those  who  "suped. " 
Others  of  a  more  scientific  turn  of  mind  conducted  original  experi- 
ments of  w'hich  we  offer  one  example.  Problem:  What  is  the 
result  of  the  action  of  dropping  a  heavy  weight,  e.  g.,  a  i6-lb.  shot, 
on  the  same  spot  on  the  fioor,  at  least  four  times?  For  data  apply 
to  Mitch  or  to  Calley ;  for  further  information,  to  Page,  w^ho  roomed 
below.  Indeed,  those  were  great  days  in  Barclay — that  was  before 
they  ruined  it  with  the  part'tions — days  of  Hedonism,  nights  of 
revelr>'  and  of  delight  for  all  members  of  the  mighty  clan  of  the 
B.  S.,  as  when  Stew  procured  somewhere  several  chickens,  which 
Charlie  cleaned,  only  to  discover  that  perhaps  he  didn't  want  any 
after  all;  days  of  pedestrianism  when  Cleanliness  left  its  neighborly 
relation  to  Godliness  and  was  rated  under  Required  Athletics.  In 
short  it  was  our  Bitmmeljalir,  and  it  was  not  until  late — for  a  few, 
sadly  late — that  we  began  to  realize  that  perhaps  Oscar  wasn't 
sending  out  those  familiar  cards  for  his  own  amusement,  and  that 
even  Beer  couldn't  do  all  our  work. 

But  there  were  other  developments.     It  was  then  that  Pete 


55 


began  to  get  that  apparently  endless  line  of  little  letters,  all  in  the  same  handwriting,  which,  during 
Junior  year,  drew  him  awav  from  us  altogether.  "  Blood-trouble"  said  J.  A.  B., — but  most  of  us  diagnosed 
it  as  heart  trouble! 

About  this  time,  too.  the  Mutt  began  to  regulate  with  precision  those  absences  from  college  which 
must  now  be  taken  into  consideration  by  all  authorities — it  being  impossible  to  hold  even  Required  Lec- 
tures on  Tuesday  or  Friday  nights.  Calley,  after  discovering  Willard's  aptitude  as  a  hypnotic  subject, 
turned  his  affections  towards  nature,  and  became  a  Biologist.  Not  content  with  the  duck  which  he 
endeavored  to  pacify  with  a  crab-net,  he  introduced  to  us  that  long  suffering  canine,  Calley  Jr.  "Calley 
With  and  Calley  Without"  became  inseparable  companions,  even  sharing  bed  and  room  together.  The 
ignoble  question  "Why  is  Calley  wild?"  and  its  cryptic  answer  are  known  to  all  of  us.  Poor  Calley  Jr.! 
His  motto  was  "Ope  the  door  and  ye  shall  find  me.  Draw  the  sheets  and  there  am  I ! "  But  in  vain  was  he 
fed  upon  the  richest  and  most  succulent  tidbits  afforded  by  Miss  Smith's  curriculiim.  Like  little  Nell  in 
the  poem,  he  died  game,  but  his  untimely  end  and  stealthy  burial  in  an  "not  unfrequented  garden-side" 
were  the  cause  of  some  discomfiture  for  those  who  took  Math. 

"You  may  wash,  you  mav  sprinkle,  that  room  as  you  will. 
But  the  scent  of  the  Calley  will  cling  to  it  still.  " 

And  a  propos  of  Math — who  will  forget  Archimedes  Coates  and  Euclid  Mashon?  Or  even  Pete  and  the 
costive  J.  P! 

In  April  Syd  passed  off  a  condition. 

The  "store"  run  by  Eddie  and  Mitch,  flourished  this  year,  and  pointed  out  once  for  all  whom  we 
should  have  as  Business  Manager  of  the  Record.  And  this  constant  reminder  of  the  fleshpots  of  Egypt 
culminated  in  the  appointment  of  an  "  Eats  Committee"  to  pave  the  way  for  our  Sophomore  Banquet. 
Naturally  Jimmy  Whitall  was  elected  Chairman. 

The  banquet  was  most  enjoyable.  Syd  made  a  speech  in  which  he  babbled  happily  about  his 
antique  desk  and  "There  was  nothing  between  them  but  a  handshake."  Two  members  were  seen  barn- 
dancing  on  Chestnut  Street  by  the  moon's  pale  ray,  and  a  third  made  the  important  discovery  that 
"Many  a  peer  of  England  brews  Livelier  liquor  than  the  Muse."  The  Mutt  was  unable  to  attend  because 
the  committee  unthinkingly  arranged  the  dinner  for  a  Friday  night. 

That  the  affairs  of  such  a  class  should  be  given  publicity  was  no  more  than  natural,  so  "Public 
Opinion"  appeared,  as  the  successor  to  the  Hall  of  Fame,  under  the  editorship  of  Johnfrenchwilsonflush-

•ngohio,  Page  and  J.  P.  Some  things  on  it  we  may  tell  about,  others  we  may  not.  Among  the  first  notes 
were  elucidations  of  the  "bow-wow"  theory  of  Philology  and  of  Dr.  Osier's  famous  dictum  "Less  meat!" 
The  latter  was  (juickly  removed  as  the  evidence  was  eating  the  plaster,  to  be  followed  by  Society  Notes 
and  a  Personal  Column,  and  lastly  by  that  great  labor-saving  device,  the  Apology  Blank.

Never  more  will  we  liear  ihal  jilaintive  wail  "  Hcl|),  help,  Jimmy  Crowcll,  lliey're  throwing  water  on

chorus.  We  will  not  hear  again  that  trembling  voice:  "Gentle  men,  this  is  Doctor  Bolles, "  for  the  good 
old  Doctor  now  lives  happily  in  Founders,  no  longer  under  the  uproarious  heels  of  Jud  and  his  friends.

Never  again  (we  hope)  will  we  know  an  odor  such  as  that  of  Page's  unhappy  wall  paper,  which  only  mel- 
lowed and  ripened  with  age.  We  may  forget  all  these  things,  just  as  Skinny  subscribed  to  Asa  Boyd's 
memory  course  and  forgot  to  go;  just  as  some  of  us  forgot  to  whom  we  had  lent  those  alarm  clocks  which 
went  off  in  Freshman  English;  just  as  Dr.  Baker  forgot  our  names  and  "took  a  run  around  the  class"  instead. 
We  may  forget  these  details,  but  the  good  old  days  of  the  third  floor  in  Barclay  will  long  live  in  memory. 

But  Spring  came  only  too  soon,  and  even  Sellew  could  find  no  "felloes"  who  would  play  a  "corking 
game  of  500"  with  him.  Cards  were  discontinued  and  "French  cricket"  or  "wogglebug  sports"  held  the 
field.  The  "after-dinner  coffee"  of  Earl  and  J.  P.  was  changed  to  after-dinner  smokes  in  the  garden — that 
is,  until  Ike  heard  about  it.  The  garden  also  became  the  scene  of  the  revelries  of  the  "Back-to-Nature" 
Club.  And  so  we  might  go  on. — We  might  tell  how  David  Bispham  sang  for  us  in  February;  how  Uncle 
Allen  "went  in  and  out"  in  meeting;  how  we  got  new  Class  pipes — all  but  Tubby,  who  "didn't  think  it 
quite  right, "  but  who  is  now  selling  them  himself — how  Stew  and  Guy  found  autoing  much  more  de- 
lightful than  college;  how  Esh  and  Tom  left,  upon  which  Calley  breathed  more  easily;  how  Calley  won 
the  Havcrfordian  Prize  Contest  and  found  a  hne  of  creditors  outside  his  door;  or  how  Dolly  found  the  duties 
of  the  Deanery  too  arduous  and  a  change  of  dynasty  brought  in  a  new  D.  D.  D.,  and  how  Jeff  held  his 
unforgetable  twenty-first  birthday  party. 

But  Summer  was  almost  upon  us.  We  had  elected  Walt  treasurer  of  the  Y.  M.  C.  A.  Exams,  were 
over, and  we  waited  only  for  the  reports  ("out  the  latter  part  of  next  week")  to  learn  whether  or  not  we 
had,  by  the  grace  of  the  Faculty,  become  Juniors.

Roberts  Hall 


The  Class  in  Junior  Year 


■*♦*♦*■ 


JUNIOR  YEAR 


«  *i  ,*]  jg  '^ij  ;j<j  ^  ^1  L*j 


Junior  Year  was  probably  the  most  delightful  year  of  our  college  course.  We  felt  ourselves  full  of 
the  importance  of  being  upperclassmen,  yet  had  little  worry  or  responsibility.  In  Junior  Year,  too,  we 
first  came  under  the  joys  of  the  elective  system  and  obtained  the  chance  to  recline  at  ease  on  the  bosom  of 
the  curriculum.  The  more  courageous  ones  took  to  Latin  III  or  the  rotund  doctor's  Forensics,  others  took 
refuge  under  the  sheltering  wings  of  Dr.  BoUes.  On  the  other  hand,  a  compulsory  diet  of  James  and 
Seager  was  fed  to  the  whole  class  throughout  the  year  by  those  careful  nurses  Rufus  and  Dolly.  It  is  still 
a  miracle  to  some  how  they  survived  and  passed  the  examinations,  and  the  complete  success  of  the  courses 
is  generallv  attributed  to  the  scholarly  discussions  which  Morris  and  Mason  conducted  with  Rufus,  and 
Morris  and  Kenderdine  with  Don  Carlos.  We  blush  to  state  that  Kendy  often  continued  his  discussions 
after  the  close  of  the  hour.  In  the  perennial  Bib.  Lit.  we  were  allied  with  the  Seniors,  and  generally  sat 
in  awe  while  the  "  ultra-saccharine  sugar  plum "  and  others  of  that  ilk  deliated  with  Rufus  as  to  the 
Messianic  Hope. 

The  personnel  of  our  class  was  again  sadly  changed.  Beer  left  us  to  study  law  at  Harvard,  Roy  to 
work  with  the  Curtis  Publishing  Co.,  Rodney  to  enter  the  Oil  Trust  and  Jud  to  take  a  position  in  Cincinnati. 
Syd  was  with  us  as  a  day  student  and  was  frequently  seen  trying  to  sell  an  antique  desk  of  his.  Exhausted 
by  the  attempts,  he  left  us  at  mid-years.  He  still  may  be  seen  in  unlikely  portions  of  Philadelphia,  stalk- 
ing the  fleeing  "job."  Pete,  too,  battled  valiantly  with  Seager,  but  in  the  Spring  his  163  cigarcts  a  day 
began  to  tell  and  he  had  to  leave  for  his  health.     Where  Calley  went  is  still  a  question  in  our  minds. 

The  additions  were  Barrett,  Lcininger,  Rod  Ristine,  and  "Rube"  Williams,  the  two  latter  having 
formerly  been  members  of  1909.  Jacob  Jarden,  of  doubtful  classification,  very  kindly  gave  us  a  feed 
in  his  room  one  night  early  in  the  year  and  in  very  solemn  manner  vowed  his  allegiance  to  igio. 


61 


Among  those  outsiders  who  were  good  enough  to  come  to  HaverforJ  for  our  intellectual  advance- 
ment we  especially  appreciated  the  attenuated  Dr.  Schelling,  who  conducted  English  IX  in  the  absence  of 
Dr.  Gummere,  and  Dr.  Phelps,  of  Yale  University,  who  delivered  two  lectures  during  the  year.  Some  of 
our  number,  who  still  adhered  to  the  childish  peanut,  came  under  the  ban  of  Dr.  Schelling's  displeasure; 
but  two  in  particular  seemed  to  meet  with  his  notice.  Alf,  our  iron-clad  specimen,  who  slumbered  quite 
harmlessly  on  the  front  row,  was  one.  Chris  was  the  other.  "Believe  me,  gentlemen,  my  friend  Mr. 
Morley  will  bear  me  out  in  this. " — Other  memories  of  Dr.  Schelling  include  the  ffesh-tinted  Venus,  and 
the  canvas-back  duck  to  which  we  were  so  often  likened. 

Morally,  our  class  as  a  whole  suffered  neither  a  retrogression  nor  an  advance.  To  be  sure,  certain 
members  had  serious  fallings  from  grace  and  we  experienced  a  severe  shock  when  Alf  blew  into  college  one 
day  in  November  with  a  black  eye.  Imagine  our  relief  when  we  learned  from  his  own  lips  that  he  had 
acquired  it  while  chopping  wood  in  Moorestown.  Several  of  us  managed  to  obtain  some  free  advertising. 
For  details  go  to  the  newspaper  files  for  1908-09.  As  an  offset  to  these  episodes,  Jarden  was  holding 
revival  meetings  in  Lloyd,  and  others  were  toeing  the  mark  with  persistence.  Chris  in  particular  showed 
such  incredible  virtue  that  he  was  finally  canonized  as  President  of  the  Y.  M.  C.  A. 

The  call  of  the  Big  City  came  very  often  to  some  of  us,  less  often  to  others,  and  at  least  once  to  the 
rest.  Numerous  little  gatherings  at  such  places  as  Kugler's  and  the  dear  old  "L'Aig,"  which,  by  the  way, 
holds  a  verv  wann  spot  in  most  of  our  hearts,  will  bear  witness  to  this.  Though  we  rarely  rivalled  Roy's 
famous  night  spent  in  Broad  Street  Station,  some  might  often  have  been  seen  leaving  the  12.41  and 
wandering  pensively  homeward  through  the  pale  moonUght.  Similar  little  gatherings  often  took  place 
within  the  sacred  confines  of  the  campus,  and  from  an  aesthetic  standpoint  the}''  suffered  not  at  all  from 
the  fact  of  their  having  occurred  nine  miles  distant  from  the  "Great  White  Way"  of  Philadelphia. 

The  conclave  which  followed  our  Junior  play  came  under  this  classification.  The  multi-colored 
character  of  the  menu  was  surprisingly  attractive  and  surpassed  all  standards  hitherto  established.  Beer 
Wilson  was  back  and  the  only  thing  needed  to  round  out  the  occasion  was  the  presence  of  Rube,  whose 
reputation  as  a  raconteur  had  been  made  in  one  night— the  night  of  the  class  feed  at  Earl's.  The  next 
morning  we  spent  in  recuperating  on  the  sunny  banks  of  Darby  Creek.  Then  again,  none  of  us  will  ever 
forget  a  certain  person's  pilgrimages  to  Zeisse's  and  the  neighboring  opera-house.  On  his  return  even  the 
most  liberal  applications  of  Benvenuto  Cellini  failed  to  calm  his  eloquence.  And  a  small  and  select  group 
will  long  retain  memories  of  cheerful  evenings  around  a  blazing  hre  in  Ardmore. 

Even  more  vicious  pastimes  were  indulged  in  at  college.     Jimmie,  for  instance,  arrived  on  the  scene 

G2 


accompanied  by  a  pianola  which  afforded  constant  amusement  throughout  the  year  to  its  owner  and 
to  those  who  frequented  Lloyd  No.  5.  It  was  not  enjoyed  as  much  Ijy  outsiders,  though  its  presence 
was  as  constantly  felt,  and  once,  when  Red  Mill  selections  arose  on  the  air  at  4  A.  M.,  the  chorus  from 
the  sleepy  occupants  of  Lloyd  would  have  been  very  unfit  for  the  ears  of  "friends  of  the  college.  "  Jeff, 
not  satisfied  with  the  financial  intricacies  of  the  Havcrfordian,  amused  himself  with  a  tobacco  store 
in  North  Barclay,  and,  by  a  remarkable  coincidence,  closed  its  door  at  the  very  time  the  authorities 
put  the  lid  on  all  such  undertakings.  Bush  diverted  himself  with  innovations  in  the  sartorial  art,  and 
Rod  continued  to  take  Math  exams. 

Our  Junior  year  was  an  important  one  to  the  college  as  well  as  to  the  class.  The  seventy-fifth  anni- 
versarv'  of  its  founding  was  celebrated,  and  the  spirit  of  loyalty  and  good  fellowship  shown  by  the 
alumni  served  to  bind  us  more  closely  to  Haverford  and  her  traditions.  We  discovered,  too,  how  indis- 
pensable Ike  is,  when  he  was  compelled  to  go  to  California  for  his  health,  which  had  been  poor  for  some 
time.  Dean  Palmer  was  left  with  the  onerous  task  of  giving  1909 's  morals  the  finishing  touch,  and  with 
the  delightful  responsibility  of  guiding  19 10  in  the  straight  path.  Those  pleasant  mornings  in  collection 
will  long  linger  in  our  memories,  —mornings  when  Reg's  voice  used  to  rise  in  an  antiphonal  chant,  and  when 
Jeff  was  so  overcome  by  his  emotions  that  he  had  to  sit  on  the  floor. 

But  above  all,  the  college  that  year  became  the  proud  possessor  of  a  weekly  periodical  known  as  the 
College  Weekly,  alias  "Queekly,"  alias  "Sickly,"  alias  "Weakly."  It  was  the  child  of  Kendy's  economic 
brain,  and,  as  the  editorials  frequently  announce,  it  filled  a  long  felt  want  in  the  college,  and  we  have  come 
to  experience  a  thrill  every  Monday  when  it  is  brought  to  us,  especially  if  we  see  our  names  in  print.  Its 
chief  features  have  always  been  Kendy's  flatulent  and  Machiavellian  editorials,  which  atone  in  reverbera- 
tion for  what  they  lack  in  verecundity. 

Spring  came,  and  the  Lloyd  .\thletic  Club  produced  new  heroes.  Kid  Clark  and  Young  Jake 
hammered  each  other  with  untheological  zeal,  and  Joe  ran  the  mile  muttering  Botticelli.  Reg  and  Alf. 
becoming  introspective,  took  up  Social  Problems  and  accompanied  the  Social  Problem  Class  on  their 
famous  trip  to  New  York.  Chas  engineered  it,  armed  with  the  mystic  word  "  Walla- Walla. "  He  is  said  to 
have  had  much  trouble  in  keeping  the  party,  which  also  included  Chris  and  Page,  from  "making  itself  too 
conspicuous"  as  he  puts  it.  All  returned  looking  enervated.  But  the  details  were  never  generally  known 
until  the  Senior  Banquet  when  the  story  of  Alf  and  the  bathtub  was  told  at  length. 

In  Spring  vacation  Chas  and  Jeff  and  Page  went  off  for  their  annual  fishing(?)  trip  to  Pocono,  but 
the  tales  told  of  their  experiences  are  simply  unbelievable.

Of  the  Junior  Play,  which  occupied  so  much  of  our  time  during  the  spring,  we  are  not  to  speak  here. 
After  the  eventful  14th  of  May  the  time  was  short  and  sweet  till  Commencement.  Studies,  sorely  neglected 
during  the  preparation  of  the  play,  were  resumed,  and  here  and  there  under  the  trees  students  might  have 
been  seen  muttering  the  rudiments  of  the  Productivity  Theory  or  the  Chapter  on  Habit.  With  Wogglebug 
cricket  and  iced  tea  as  diversions,  the  time  sped  swiftly  enough  and  soon  carne  Class  Day  and  Commence- 
ment. The  melancholy  bell  ceremony  we  took  part  in,  our  white  flannels  particularly  doleful  in  the 
pouring  rain.  Chas  made  his  masterly  speech  and  attempted  to  reinstate  the  clapper.  That  night  Earl 
and  others  returned  late  from  a  camping  party  and  were  joined  by  a  roistering  bunch  from  town  led  by 
Pat.  After  raising  the  echoes  for  some  hours,  they  pulled  some  Barclayites  from  their  downy  couches,  and 
the  whole  lot  started  a  few  hours  before  sunrise  for  "Earl's  Pond."  There  they  had  a  delightful  swim 
and  continued  on  their  way  to  St.  Davids,  where  J.  P.  entertained  right  royally  at  breakfast,  and  returned  to 
College  at  8  o'clock.  We  then  pityingly  watched  igog  receive  their  diplomas,  and  departed  for  the  summer 
with  a  new  dignity.     Seniors  at  last!

a  a  a  a  a  B  B  B  a 

The  long-expected  end  of  September  had  come.  From  Mohntown,  from  St.  Davids,  from  Baltimore — 
from  all  quarters  of  the  compass  iqio  was  arriving,  and  Oscar's  transformed  auto  was  kept  busy  hustling 
trunks  up  from  the  station.  Page  had  already  had  his  room  brightly  papered  in  red,  and  the  mahogany 
book-cases  installed.     Senior  Year  had  begun. 

As  we  unpacked  the  tattered  gowns  bought  from  igog,  prospects  seemed  very  bright.  With  Chas. 
as  Class  President,  with  Kendy  to  mould  public  opinion  by  editorials  in  the  Weekly,  with  Chris  guiding  the 
chariot  of  salvation,  with  Tubby  as  football  captain,  and  with  a  new  stenographer  in  the  President's  office — 
everything  pointed  to  a  brilliant  year.  The  Union  was  apparently  ready  for  occupation,  but  in  this  we 
were  deceived. 

Pat  and  Joe  and  Art  and  Sam  had  left  us,  and  their  places  could  not  be  filled.  No  more  of  Pat's 
droll  tales,  or  of  Joe's  five  minutes  with  the  Italian  School — "Did  I  show  you  this  one?  A — er— remark- 
ably fine  example  of  Benvenuto  Cellini's  work — remarkably  fine."  No  more  end  runs  or  hits  for  four  by 
Art.     No  longer  would  Wang's  fiddle  discourse  sweet  music  for  the  aesthetico-aesthetes  of  Merion. 

Jarden,  too,  the  Eighth  Great  Him  of  the  Church,  (after  so  often  swearing  allegiance  to  lyio)  had 
left,  and  Lloyd  Hall  was  desolate.  Throughout  the  year,  however,  his  frock-coat  graced  the  ])ulpit  at 
Preston  or  was  observed  on  the  parochial  tour  on  Railroad  Avenue.  About  the  time  of  the  April  make-ups 
he  reappeared  at  College  and  was  seen  approaching  Rotierts  Hall  convoved  by  a  phalanx  of  tutors.  Fresh- 
man Math  (begun  in  1Q04)  still  stands  between  him  and  the  coveted  "dip." 

We  were  glad  to  welcome  one  of  the  old  guard  once  more  Guy  -who  rejoined  us  after  a  ])rolonged 
leave  of  absence.  We  also  found  our  ranks  augmented  by  Townsend,  the  seniorest  Senior  of  the  Class; 
Holy  Earnest  Crow,  who  had  already  had  the  courage  of  his  convictions  and  had  pitched  his  matrimonial 
tent  in  Athensville;  Boyce,  our  adenoidal  theologian,  who  missed  the  coeducational  talcum  of  his  native 


67 


college;  Davis,  the  silent  wonder  of  the  cinder  track;  and  Julian  Bryan,  whose  savory  tales  of  Singapore 
have  delighted  us.     There  was  also  Someone  Else,  but  of  him  more  anon. 

Johnny  Green  wandered  in  by  and  by  from  the  wilds  of  New  Jersey,  but  though  partaking  of  our 
bread  and  salt  still  considers  himself  as  of  igog.  Misguided  in  this,  but  otherwise  sane,  his  genial  laugh 
has  been  a  constant  encouragement  to  Rufus  in  Philosophy  IV. 

On  some  members  of  19 lo  the  mantle  of  Senioric  dignity  fell  easily  enough;  but  in  many  others 
we  discerned  no  change.  Reg  still  gurgled  in  collection;  Harold  giggled  in  meeting;  Alf  continued  to  hurl 
the  innocuous  cherr}-  in  the  dining-hall.  But  in  Skinny  there  was  a  noticeable  change.  Instead  of  the 
exuberant  and  catholic  flow  of  adjective  which  had  made  Junior  Play  rehearsals  a  joy,  our  architect  now 
breathed  the  most  dulcet  tones,  and  the  fervent  adjuration  of  Billy  Wick,  the  patriarch  of  Westtown, 
became  his  only  expletive.     Alas,  poor  Yorick!     He  had  conferred  with  the  Powers  that  Be. 

For  a  long  time  Jeff  had  lived  under  the  sword  of  Damocles.  At  any  moment  we  expected  to  see 
his  frail  young  life  cut  off  by  the  descending  snick  of  a  Latin  condition  wielded  by  the  relentless  William 
Wilson.  Egged  out  of  his  lethargy  by  several  cheering  noggs,  Jefif  girded  his  loins  for  the  fourth  time. 
After  a  brief  poring  over  the  small  green  trot  he  advanced  upon  Roberts  surrounded  by  a  band  of  enthu- 
siastic friends,  and  smote  the  exam,  hip  and  thigh.  The  necessary  50  obtained,  he  once  more  joined  our 
ranks, — and  buying  a  Hundred  Trip  Ticket  to  the  Hotel  Scott,  prepared  to  enter  into  life. 

The  Junior  Class,  as  per  catalogue  at  least,  now  held  within  its  milky  boundaries  several  of  our  more 
ease-loving  spirits,  who  still  longed  to  bathe  in  the  dragon's  blood  of  1910.  Bush,  Page,  Trilby  and  Alf 
had  all  technically  forsaken  us.  As  a  matter  of  fact,  however,  their  allegiance  to  Alan,  Lucius  and  Co. 
was  but  slight. 

For  some  time  the  world  moved  on  in  the  even  tenor  of  its  way,  disturbed  only  by  such  ripples  as 
the  impeachment  of  our  behavior  in  meeting  and  the  ostentatious  clambering  upon  the  water-wagon  of 
one  of  our  most  gifted  poets.  Guy  indulged  in  pre-season  batting  practice  to  fit  himself  for  the  English 
Tour.  Willard  continued  to  seek  safety  in  numbers  and  spent  much  money  at  the  telephone.  In  many 
quarters  his  cheer}'  question  "Going  to  be  in  to-night?"  has  been  heard  tinkling  over  the  wires.  Chris  found 
the  way  to  Lauber's  and  was  not  infrequently  to  be  seen  philosophizing  there.  Skeet  played  pool,  J.  P. 
juggled  with  his  initials  and  began  to  set  his  cap  at  the  Teaching  Fellowship.  The  dramatic  instinct 
surged  up  and  several  of  our  members  gave  a  Passion  Play  in  the  Cricket  Pavilion.  The  Mutt  specialized 
in  Physics  and  illustrated  the  Periodic  Law  by  his  visits  to  Frankford.  Kid  Furness,  our  Haddonfield 
Humoreske,  gave  a  moth-ball  party.     Jimmie  discovered  that  the  Merion  Cricket  Club  menu  presented 

68 


more  gastronomic  permutations  and  combinations  than  Miss  Smith's  traditional  fasciculus.  Finding  that 
at  the  Club  Monday  lunch  mice  were  not  rated  as  required  courses,  he  rented  a  special  alcove  and  the 
Matron's  swarthy  minions  saw  him  no  more.  Kerbie,  always  a  faithful  bantling  in  Bollesie's  brood,  in- 
curred the  wrath  of  his  protector  and  was  ejected  from  the  room.  It  is  rumored  that  this  was  just  the 
stimulus  necessary  to  effect  the  change  of  George's  thesis  subject  from  Martin  Luther  to  The  Aesthetic 
Possibilities  of  the  Cocoa  Bean.  Reg  and  Alf  took  a  course  in  the  Yiddish  minuet  at  the  Kursaal.  The 
hiding-place  of  Puffer's  "la?t  cigar"  was  discovered.     And  thus  the  days  went  by. 

The  Midyears  came  on  presently  and  those  of  us  who  were  not  debarred  from  exams  by  too  frequent 
absences  ground  cheerlessly.  The  Senior  fleet  weathered  the  storm  in  good  shape.  Alf's  French  was 
perhaps  somewhat  unsteady,  but  on  the  whole  we  point  with  pride  to  our  scholarly  attainments. 

The  Trolley  Strike  found  many  of  us  interested.  Earl  rode  in  and  out  on  the  Pee  and  Wee  in  the 
hopes  of  getting  hit  by  a  brick  bat  and  suing  the  company  for  damages.  Alf  and  Reg,  the  inimitable  pair, 
organized  a  band  of  Mohocks  and  were  to  be  found  in  many  of  the  riots.  Guy,  forced  to  go  on  foot  in  his 
nocturnal  prowlings,  was  undoubtedly  the  greatest  sufferer  by  the  strike. 

In  the  early  part  of  March  we  descended  upon  Kugler's  for  our  final  undergraduate  banquet.  The 
chcj  outdid  himself  in  the  matter  of  food  and  our  orators  in  their  toasts.  Rodney  was  in  high  spirits  and 
interpolated  his  remarks  into  all  the  speeches.  The  epithet  "Mr.  Henr\'  Puffer"  as  applied  to  the  toast- 
master  dates  from  that  night.  Willard's  succession  of  villainous  puns,  Jeff's  adventures  in  the  Turkish 
Bath,  Chris's  account  of  the  Two  Hard  Nuts  on  a  Social  Problem  Trip  to  New  York — these  will  go  down 
in  history.  The  Wogglebug  quartet  sang  cheerfully  if  not  tunefully.  Charley  was  summoned  to  the 
telephone  twice  or  thrice  during  the  dinner,  and  Page  crowned  the  evening  by  the  smoking-car  episode. 
The  only  disappointing  feature  of  the  event  was  the  disappearance  from  the  dining-room  of  the  picture 
which  we  had  formerly  so  delighted  in.  Lack  of  space  and  a  meed  of  discretion  forbid  a  completer  panorama 
of  that  memorable  night. 

It  was  not  long  after  this  that  some  genial  spirits  assembled  in  Page's  salon  to  celebrate  St.  Patrick's 
Day.  A  committee  of  one  was  sent  in  town  to  purchase  the  accessories,  and  returned  groaning  beneath 
the  weight  of  his  suit-case.  An  Irish  Wake  was  the  fonn  of  celebration  decided  upon.  The  corpse,  sur- 
rounded by  candles,  lay  in  perfect  decorum  until  disturbeil  by  Page.  Jeff's  bleating  cry  broke  the  stillness 
of  the  night  many  times,  and  a  chorus  of  Bacchantes  rendered  a  cheerful  accompaniment.  Gradually  the 
revelling  became  fast  and  furious.  The  leader  of  the  Dairy-Mai<ls,  attracted  by  the  congenial  sounds, 
appeared,  and  speedily  took  refuge  in  a  sheltered  corner.     The  shouts  of  the  mourning  Hibernians  even 

69 


penetrated  as  far  as  the  ears  of  the  Ultra-Saccharine  Sugar  Plum.  Page's  niahogan)^  bookcases  to  this 
day  bear  tokens  of  that  immortal  occasion.     Of  all  Nodes  Ambrosianae  this  was  the  greatest. 

In  the  intervals  between  banquets,  wakes,  Y.  M.  C.  A  receptions  and  other  orgies,  we  were  enter- 
tained by  piano  selections  rendered  by  Bush,  often  to  the  accompaniment  of  his  silvery  falsetto.  In  an 
unguarded  moment  some  one  (possibly  up  at  Brjm  Mawr)  had  taught  him  the  rudiments  of  the  piano-forte. 
By  constant  practice  his  repertoire  now  includes  twelve  airs — just  eleven  more  than  Chris's,  whose  interpre- 
tation of  Pony  Boy  is  a  celestial  joy  known  only  to  the  true  believer. 

From  this  time  on  until  the  Spring  vacation  operetta  practice  filled  our  spare  time.  Those  who 
did  not  take  part  occupied  the  seats  in  Roberts  to  watch  the  gambolings  of  the  chorus.  From  these, 
however,  Eddy  must  be  excepted,  who  spent  all  his  spare  time  in  trailing  the  lurking  ad.  Frequent  class 
meetings  were  also  held  to  discuss  the  advertising  problem. 

The  surest  sign  of  the  approach  of  spring  was  the  organization  of  swimming  parties  in  Darby  Creek. 
It  was  on  one  of  these  that  the  unfortunate  Charles  Fygis  came  near  being  marooned  on  the  bonny  braes 
of  Coopertown  without  his  nether  trousseau,  and  returned  with  his  coat  wrapped  discreetly  about  his 
manly  limbs. 

And  so  we  might  go  on.  We  might  tell  how  Rendel  Harris  lectured  on  Twins,  to  the  obvious  dis- 
comfort of  Billy  Jackson.  We  might  tell  how  Kendy  paid  visits  to  the  Girls'  House  of  Refuge  to  get  thesis 
material.  We  might  tell  of  the  origin  of  the  phrase  "goosing  in  the  abstract."  How  Chris  and  Rube 
won  Rhodes  Scholarships  to  Oxford — Haverford  being  the  only  college  in  the  country  to  supply  two 
Rhodes  scholars;  how  Jeff  became  rejuvenated  at  the  touch  of  Spring  and  found  himself  not  as  old  as  he 
had  thought;  and  how  vahantly  we  have  labored  on  the  theses. 

But  signs  are  not  lacking  that  the  end  is  near.  In  the  dining-hall  comes  the  merry  sound  of  ice 
being  cracked  in  napkins  to  make  impromptu  iced  tea.  Outside  the  faculty  children  of  all  ages  and  sexes 
give  the  lawn  the  appearance  of  a  creche,  and  in  the  cricket  nets  Harold  is  practising  for  those  centuries  he 
is  going  to  make  over  in  England.  Halley's  comet,  which  appears  only  before  events  of  supreme  import- 
ance, has  been  sent  to  herald  1910's  graduation.  The  warm  weather  has  resuscitated  the  Barclay  Hall  cock- 
roach, and  out  on  Walton  Field,  Alf  (like  his  namesake  the  sacred  river)  is  running  the  half-mile  in  record  time. 

As  a  class,  we  have  been  light-hearted,  and  will  probably  be  so  until  the  end  of  time.  That  is  the 
way  we  are  made.  We  have  never  paraded  our  love  for  Haverford  in  sentimental  phrase,  but  it  is  none 
the  less  real  and  deep .  Four  merry  years  have  knit  us  to  her  and  to  one  another  with  bonds  unbreakable ;  and 
in  years  to  come  it  is  our  hope  that  our  Alma  Mater  will  find  us  not  the  least  grateful  of  her  many  children.

Junior  ^lag 


We  had  thought  a  good  deal  about  our  Play  during  Sophomore  year,  but  until  the  spring  nothing 
was  done.  About  this  time,  in  the  silence  of  the  midnight,  when  Mitch  and  Eddy  were  figuring  up  the 
gains  of  the  store,  when  Galley  was  snatching  a  little  broken  slumber,  and  when  Syd  was  writing  up  a 
Physics  experiment  for  perhaps  the  fifth  time — about  this  time  the  midnight  silence  began  to  be  punctuated 
by  the  pound  and  rattle  of  Beer's  famous  Haverjordian  typewriter.  The  rumor  went  the  rounds  "fle's 
working  on  the  play!" 

But  it  was  the  production  of  igog's  play, in  May,  igoS,  that  stirred  us  to  real  activity.  We  realized 
that  a  standard  had  been  set  for  us  which  it  would  be  hard  to  surpass,  and  were  stimulated  accordingly. 
A  Play  Committee  was  appointed.  Beer  was  chairman.  Cadbury,  Edwards,  Froelicher,  Morley,  Phillips 
and  Whitall  were  the  other  members,  and  many  earnest  meetings  were  held  in  Beer's  little  den  in  Barclay 
third.  That  was  in  the  merry  days  ere  the  trisection  of  Barcla}',  and  as  the  luckless  committee  debated 
within,  outside  in  the  long  hall  the  genial  members  of  igio  would  be  enjoying  themselves  in  various  ways. 
Jud  might  be  joining  Calley  and  Pert  in  holy  wedlock.  In  Syd's  room  the  Literary  Society  was  doubtless 
meeting  amid  roars  of  applause.  And  down  in  the  end  room  (since  remodelled)  Willard  was  laying  the 
eggs  of  those  ideals  since  so  plentifully  hatched. 

But  while  these  things  were  lrans]>iring  outside,  the  Play  Committee  was  kept  busy  proffering  sug- 
gestions (such  as  "Don't  forget  Billy  Jackson's  straw  hat,"  or  "Great!  But  Ike  won't  pass  that!")  These 
were  garnered  and  sifted  at  committee  meetings;  and  at  night  Beer's  typewriter  would  again  rattle  and 
wheeze.  Finally  a  first  draft  was  completed.  Typewritten  copies  of  this  were  given  to  all  the  committee- 
men, and  they  departed  for  the  summer  with  Beer's  blessing. 

In  the  fall  the  committee  reassembled,  now  under  Earl's  chairmanship.  IHiring  the  vacation 
Chris  had  revised  the  play  somewhat  and  Mitch  and  Jimmy  had  written  a  little  music.  Committee  meet- 
ings, now  held  over  in  Lloyd,  in  Jimmy's  pianola  salon,  began  to  grow  serious.  Burning  questions  were 
hotly  discussed  -  the  advisability  of  retaining  some  of  the  "knocks,"  the  assignment  of  parts,  the  necessity 
of  getting  someone  to  coach  the  cast,  and  so  on.     As  to  the  last,  Mr.  Samuel  Arthur  King  was  interviewed 

75 


The  Dairy  Maid  Chorus 
76 


at  Br\-n  MawT,  and  being  much  struck  by  the  light  cast  on  Shakespeare  by  our  play,  agreed  to  give  us  the 
benefit  of  eight  \'isits.  His  braided  frock-coat  became  a  familiar  sight  on  the  stage  of  Roberts,  and  through 
his  interpretation  we  first  began  to  realize  how  much  there  was  "in"  our  play.  About  this  time  the  little 
verse  became  current  "Hark  the  herald  angels  sing,  Here  comes  Samuel  Arthur  King!" 

Work  began  in  real  earnest  after  the  Midyears,  and  from  this  time  date  most  of  our  memories  con- 
nected with  the  Play.  The  garret  of  the  dain.-,  approached  by  climbing  a  rickety  ladder  in  true  Nick 
Carter  style,  became  Skinny's  headquarters  for  scenery-painting.  Here,  surrounded  by  various  works  on 
Roman  Architecture,  half-smoked  pipes  and  assistants  in  all  stages  of  lumbago,  Mv  Lord  Edwards  executed 
the  scenery-  for  the  Forum,  the  Circus  Maximus  and  the  Senate  Chamber.  The  canvas  was  spread  on  the 
floor,  and  Skinny,  perched  on  the  top  of  a  twelve-foot  ladder  to  consider  the  perspective,  was  an  impressive 
sight  that  would  have  joyed  the  heart  of  Asa  Boyd. 

But  while  the  red-headed  Grinner  painted  scener>-  and  manufactured  a  cunning  imitation  of  Collins' 
pet,  the  gasoline  lawn-mower,  the  rest  were  not  idle.  The  lawn-mower,  the  benches  for  the  Senate  Chamber. 
the  masterly  fountain— these  were  made  over  at  Earl's  house  and  transported  to  Roberts  Hall  in  the  dead 
of  night.  Two  diminutive  autos  were  bought  in  Philadelphia  for  the  thrilling  auto-race  scene.  A  piano 
was  installed  in  Roberts,  and  Mitch  coaxed  airs  from  it  while  others  were  hammering  planks  to  supplement 
the  inadequate  stage.  Chris  and  Jeff  were  rehearsing  their  love-scene,  words  were  being  written  for  the 
songs,  Eddy  was  busy  with  the  invitations,  and  a  score  of  other  things  were  going  on  simultaneouslv. 
Mr.  Dumont  was  kind  enough  to  drill  the  choruses  for  us. 

At  length  came  the  dress  rehearsal,  and  we  all  donned  our  costumes  for  the  first  time.  Tired  as  we 
were,  a  thrill  went  through  us  when  the  orchestra  played  the  music  -our  music  — and  we  realized  that  the 
play  was  going  to  be  a  success. 

To  the  eventful  night  of  the  Fourteenth  of  May  we  cannot  do  justice.  The  evening  was  fine  and 
warm,  Roberts  Hall  packed  to  overflowing,  and  the  play  went  off  without  a  hitch  from  Prologue  to  Class 
Song.  Without  a  hitch,  but  not  without  incident.  How  Joe  performed  his  much  rehearsed  gesture  with 
clearness,  force  and  ease;  how  the  electric-lighted  Keats  shone  brightly  in  the  moonlit  Forum;  how  the 
fountain  leaked;  how  Oscar  showed  his  apprehension  by  staying  away;  how  between  the  acts  Earl  forgot 
those  members  of  the  audience  who  were  seated  behind  the  curtain;  how  Kendy  and  his  chorus  ogled  and 
simpered  as  Dairy  Maids;  how  Bush  and  Puffer  made  a  hit  with  the  Aeroplane;  how  Charley's  tights  were 
built  for  a  sturdier  leg  than  his;  how  the  auto-race  went  off  amid  deafening  applause;  how  Caesar  revive i

The  Circus  Maximus 


in  his  coffin;  and  how,  as  we  sang  the  Class  Song,  we  knew  that  the  Play  had  bound  us  all  closer  together 
than  ever  before  —these  things  have  passed  into  indelible  memories. 

As  we  scrubbed  off  the  paint  and  hastened  to  the  appointed  rendezvous  it  hardly  seemed  possible 
that  it  was  all  over.  And  when,  after  a  glorious  evening,  we  gathered  one  by  one  in  the  gym  for  a  special 
feed  together,  we  felt  that  it  was  indeed  good  to  be  in  Nineteen  Ten.  But  even  then  the  events  of  the 
night  were  not  over.  The  third  floor  north  in  Barclay  could  tell  some  tales,  and  a  certain  door-transom 
in  the  Dairy.     But  they  have  never  divulged  what  they  saw,  and  we  will  not  be  less  discreet.

CLASS  SONG 

Comrades  come  we  now  together 

Gladly  meet  again, 
Friends  of  the  sunshiny  weather 

Friends  of  storm  and  rain ; 
Glad  in  bright  years  left  behind  us. 

Brave  for  years  before 
Memory  closer  still  shall  bind  us 

Now  and  evermore — 

Chorus. 

So  a  cheer  for  our  class,  let  hearts  to  her  be  true. 

You'll  hear  the  fame  of  her  proud  name 

As  long  as  skies  are  blue. 

And  when  in  years  to  come  we  meet,  a  loyal  host  of  men, 

We'll  sing  to  Alma  Mater  and  to  glorious  Nineteen  Ten. 

Thunder  forth  the  song,  0  brothers 

Till  the  rafters  ring 
Haverford,  the  best  of  mothers, 

Hail  to  thee  we  sing; 
Where  the  future  e'er  may  find  us. 

Seas  'tween  us  ma\'  roar 
Memory  closer  still  shall  bind  us 

\'ow  and  evermore.

In  response  to  our  offer  of  assistance  for  those  bewildered  in  the  mazes  of  social  obligation  and 
uncertainty,  we  have  received  a  number  of  letters.  Some  of  these  we  reprint  here.  We  regret  that  space 
forbids  the  reproduction  of  letters  received  from  President  Sharpless,  Miss  Smith,  Jack  Guiney  and  Syd 
Coates. 

To  the  Editor  of  the  Class  Record: 
Dear  Sir — 

I  am  a  young  man  from  Baltimore.     I  have  been  told  that  my  hairstand  is  not 
without  its  attractions,  and  I  also  play  the  piano  with  the  manly  and  melodious  forefinger.     With 
these  advantages,  I  naturally  wish  to  develop  my  social  aptitudes.     Please  answer  these  questions, 
(i)  How  often  may  I  visit  Bryn  Mawr  College?     Is  four  times  a  week  con- 
sidered excessive? 

(2)   Mention  some  entertaining  anecdotes  to  tell  when  the  conversation   flags. 

DONALD, 
(i)     Various  precedents  have  been  established.      Consult  C.  M.  Froelicher's  Sunday  Afternoons  with 
the  Flock. 

(2)  Jeff,  our  raciest  raconteur,  recommends  the  story  of  Page  in  the  smoking-car.  Langsdorf's 
Cotnpendimn  of  Parlor  Stories  from  the  Ladies'  Home  Journal  is  a  useful  vest-pocket  companion. 


To  the  Editor  of  the  Class  Record: 
Dear  Madam — 

I  am  an  earnest  young  man  from  Swarthmore.  I  never  go  c^ling  with- 
out a  volume  of  poetry  in  my  pocket.  By  this  method  I  have  become  considerably  attached  in 
various  directions — notably  Bryn  Mawr,  Wayne,  Media,  Chester,  Manayunk  and  Preston.  What 
is  your  advice?  WILLARD.

You  do  not  give  us  sufficient  data.  Have  you  made  explicit  promises  to  any  of  the  vestals?  If  so. 
all  is  lost.  The  following  books  may  be  useful:  G.  S.  K.  Wheeler,  The  Invidious  Liaison  and  Practice  in 
the  Nets.     Also  A  Family  of  Three  on  Five  Dollars  a  Week,  by  Mrs.  H.  S.  Hires. 


To  the  Editor  of  the  Class  Record: 
Dear  Sir — 

I  am  the  possessor  of  a  splendid  crop  of  facial  alfalfa,  inherited  from  Probably 
Arboreal.  To  my  consternation  it  seems  to  afford  naught  but  amusement  to  the  ungodly.  What 
is  your  advice? 

(2)  Can  you  tell  me  the  most  effective  agent  for  cleansing  a  rubber  collar 
without  removing  it? 

OSCAR, 
(i)     If  you  wish  to  remove   the   difficulty,  try  overcuts.     If   merely    to  disinfect   and    preserve, 
camphor-balls. 

(2)  Mrs.  Rorer  recommends  the  following  recipe:  Make  a  mixture  of  one  part  Rubifoam  and  two 
parts  Jackson's  Twin  Soothing  Syrup.  Apply  w-ith  damp  cloth.  In  an  aggravated  ca,se  try  J.  A.  Babbitt's 
Soft  Soap. 


{Special  Marconigram  lo  the  Class  Record.) 
To  the  Editor  of  the  Class  Record: 
Dear  Sir  — 

I  send  this  message  from-  my  hiding-place  in  the  Everglades  behind  Coojjer- 
town.  Several  days  ago,  while  walking  in  this  vicinity.  I  was  set  upon  by  banditti  and  despoiled  of 
my  nether  garments,  including  my  Porosknits.  My  pet  raven  has  brought  me  food,  but  is  unable 
to  carry  a  pair  of  trousers  in  its  beak.     Can  you  send  some  aid  ? 

CII.\STITV. 
Your  request  has  been  referred  to  the  Department  of  Public  Safety,  who  are  sending  you  a  B.  V.  D. 
P.  D.  Q.     Meanwhile  keep  cool  and  eat  no  rich  food.

To  the  Editor  of  the  Class  Record: 
Dear  Sir — 

Is  there  any  balm  in  Gilead  for  a  young  man  who  is  hot,  wild  and  proud? 
Some  davs  ago  while  going  in  this  state  to  a  social  function  I  made  a  conversational  blunder  of 
some  magnitude.     What  can  I  do  to  re-establish  myself  in  the  good  graces  of  the  lady  ? 

(2)  Is  it  ethical  for  me,  knowing  the  true  state  of  affairs,  to  insist  that  Root 
Beer  is  concocted  of  pure  roots?  JEFFERSON. 

(i)  Write  a  note  of  apology  to  your  lady-friend,  giving  full  details  of  the  occurrence  and  explaining 
why  you  did  it.  < 

(2)  This  is  a  matter  for  the  individual  conscience.  Read  carefully  Rev.  W.  T.  Boyce's  quarto 
volume  entitled  Resume  of  Christian  Faith. 


To  the  Editor  of  the  Class  Record: 
Dear  Sir — 

I  am  the  manager  of  the  musical  troupe  that  got  stranded  near  Peoria.  Nightly 
now  the  ghost  of  $150  clambers  up  my  bedstead  and  does  the  Cubanola  glide  on  my  pillow.  Efforts 
to  extract  $4  per  each  from  the  innocent  victims  have  disastrously  failed.  I  have  pawned  my 
Bib  Lit  notes  and  even  my  last  cigar.     What  remedy  can  you  suggest?  PUFFER. 

Suicide. 


To  the  Editor  of  the  Class  Record: 
Sir— 

I  am  a  young  married  woman,  and  have  just  been  appointed  to  the  chair  of 
Biology  in  a  large  Western  coeducational  university.  I  have  also  recently  received  an  offer  from 
the  Cherry  Blossom  Burlesquers  to  act  as  understudy  for  Chooceeta,  the  lady  with  the  Elgin 
movement.  Should  not  a  great  artiste  be  untrammeled  by  domestic  cares?  Would  I  not  be 
justified  in  deserting  my  family  and  declining  the  professorship  in  order  to  tread  the  boards? 

HOLLIE  ERNESTINE. 

By  all  means  choose  the  dramatic  career.     Husbands  and  households  are  not  for  those  of  artistic 
temperament. 

84 


To  the  Editor  of  the  Class  Record: 
Dear  Sirs — 

Our  health  being  feeble  we  are  precluded  from  active  pursuits.  We  have 
been  invited  by  the  Faculty  to  remain  at  Haverford  another  year  as  Teaching  Fellows.  The  posi- 
tion carries  with  it  a  year's  membership  in  the  Leisure  Club,  and  the  duties  (which  include  Faculty 
Teas,  philandering  with  the  Dean,  and  week-ends  at  the  shore)  are  to  our  liking.  Do  you  think, 
however,  that  another  year's  fellowing  would  necessarily  produce  complete  bromidic  demoraliza- 
tion.? This  has  been  the  case  in  the  past,  but  has  been  ascribed  to  the  character  of  the  patients 
themselves  rather  than  the  cure  itself.     What  is  your  unbiased  opinion? 

ALFRED. 
WALTER. 
Jog  on.  jog  on,  the  footpath  way,  and  merrily  hent  the  stile-a!     By  all  means  remain,  for  the  sake 
of  Rufus's  Seminar.     How-  nice  to  be  sheltered  from  the  buffets  of  the  world  and  to  chew  the  cud  of  con- 
templation in  idyllic  ease!     Vou  are  much  to  be  envied.

li0gra;il]ta  ICit^rarta 


Xineteen  Hundred  and  Ten  has  always  been  a  faithful  devotee  of  the  Muse,  and  it  seems  not  amiss 
to  recall  here  some  of  our  purple  patches. 

In  Freshman  Year  Wilson,  Frost  and  Whitall  attained  the  dignity  of  print,  and  other  performances  . 
almost  as  noteworthy  remained  in  MS.  Meigs's  "Court  Notes, "  which  circulated  so  merrily  in  Bib.  Lit.  Class, 
have  been  mentioned  elsewhere.  Kerbaugh  was  meditating  the  "Winter  Idyll"  which  appeared  the  next 
year.  Willie  Greene  was  rh\-ming  in  secret  —verse  which  has  since  blazed  forth  in  full  glor\-  in  the  Harvard 
publications.  Jeff,  then  preparing  for  the  ministry,  began  to  wrestle  with  the  ]Vc!tschmci=  and  took  the 
famous  Western  trip  which  brought  out  all  his  latent  poetry.  Freshman  year  was  thus  essentially  a 
period  of  preparation  for  the  great  things  to  come. 

It  was  Sophomore  Year  which  the  Pierian  Sisters  delighted  especially  to  honor.  Meigs  was  gone, 
but  others  appeared  on  the  stage.  Kerby's  only  contribution  was  modestly  laid  on  the  altar.  Beer's 
output  continued  to  be  of  that  quality  which  easily  makes  him  our  Poet  Laureate,  and  he  was  elected 
Editor-in-Chief  of  the  Haverjordian~an  unusual  honor  for  a  Sophomore.  Under  Dr.  Baker's  inspiration 
Jimmy  translated  Horace  and  wrote  other  verse  of  considerable  merit.  Kendy  was  then  travailing  as 
Business  Manager  of  the  Haverfordian,  but  his  ability  as  a  journalist  was  already  beginning  to  hud.  jcIT 
began  tentatively  to  voice  the  lyric  cry,  and  "Hot  and  Wild  and  Proud"  has  since  passed  into  the 
common  speech  of  men.     The  year  ended  auspiciously  with  Galley's  really  unusual  story  "A  Phantasy." 

In  Junior  Year  the  long-expected  book  of  "  Haverford  Verse"  was  i>ul)lished,  containing  three 
poems  of  Beer's  and  one  of  Jimmy's.  At  this  time  too,  Beer's  poem  on  the  Seventy-Fifth  Anniversary 
appeared  -certainly  our  most  noteworthy  production  in  verse.  It  is  rumored  that  Jeff's  "Marcus 
Aurelius"  adorned  the  proof-sheets  of  "Haverford  Verse,"  l)Ut  owing  to  the  inability  of  the  editors  to 
appreciate  projected  emotion,  it  was  not  included  in  the  volume.  He  that  as  it  may,  Jeff  came  into  his 
own  this  year,  and  put  forth  blossoms  in  Oriental  profusion.  A  new  aspirant  ajjpeared  in  Chris,  whose 
"  Episodes  in  the  Life  of  an  Irish  Waitress"  were  so  realistic  as  to  savor  of  first-hand  knowledge.     And  who 

89 


will  forget  his  throbbing  sonnet  "To  Her,"  and  the  sensation  it  caused  in  the  "cor  cordium"  of  the 
neighboring  convent?  Jimmy  Whitall  became  Editor-in-Chief  of  the  Haverfordiaii,  thus  being  the  second 
member  of  1910  tohold  that  position.  Page  became  numbered  among  the  immortals  by  two  modest  ditties 
printed  in  the  spring. 

Nor  must  we  forget  that  most  lusty  child  of  Kendv's  brow,  the  Sickly.  A  direct  descendant  of  the 
Polyglot  tablets  to  Squid,  and  "Public  Opinion,"  in  its  very  cradle  it  strangled  the  serpents  Rhetoric  and 
Orthography.  Every  Monday  night  its  editorials  have  volleyed  and  thundered,  and  through  this  medium 
Kendy's  lambent  wit  and  German tonian  intellect  at  last  found  expression. 

Senior  Year  was  principally  noted  for  the  fertility  of  Jeff's  Muse.  Hardly  an  issue  of  the  Haver- 
jordiau  passed  without  a  wail  of  the  Hiresian  lyric,  and  sometimes  {renovare  dolorem!)  they  appeared  in 
litters  of  two  or  three.  Jimmy  and  Chris  were  content  to  rest  on  their  laurels,  with  the  possible  exception 
of  the  Balzacian  tale  of  Pewee  Junction  that  created  a  sensation  in  English  V.  Tubby  realized  another 
ideal  by  having  a  story  printed  in  the  Haverfordiaii.  Kendy  created  a  pleasant  titillation  for  the  browsers 
of  English  V  by  his  Rabelaisian  theme  on  Smell,  and  his  trichotomization  of  the  college  into  Aristocracy, 
Activity  and  Brains;  but  barring  these  our  achievements  during  Senior  Year  were  not  especially  note- 
worthy.    An  after-thought  recalls  Guy's  editorial  on  the  Militant  Agnostic. 

To  sum  up.  We  have  had  from  our  class  two  Editors-in-Chief  of  the  Haverfordiaii  (not  to  mention 
the  two  Business  Managers) ;  a  founder  of  the  Weekly;  four  of  our  poems  have  been  printed  in  "  Haverford 
Verse;"  and  we  have  had  in  1910  several  men  who  have  done  literary  work  of  really  unusual  quality.  We 
nail  our  purple  patch  to  the  mast  with  a  great  deal  of  satisfaction. 

We  have  thought  it  worth  while  to  reprint  here  a  few  of  the  poems  of  which  ig  10  is  most  proud. 

A  NOTE   ON  THE  MARGIN  OF  THE    BOOK 
OF  LIFE. 

Oh  sweet  are  love  and  life,. 

And  dear  to  me! 
And  in  this  fleeting  strife 

There's  ecstasy!

HAVERFORD'S  SEVENTY-FIFTH  ANNIVERSARY 


Young  is  our  mother  still,  and  very  fair 
To  all  her  sons  who  love  and  serve  her  yet 
Xow  that  the  kindly  hand  of  time  hath  set 

The  forehead  with  a  crown  of  silver  hair. 

We  call  her  mother,  lacking  better  name. 
For  she  is  nameless  even  as  Death  or  Time : 
She  drives  the  human  heart  to  fashion  rhyme 

For  her  and  puts  its  written  rhyme  to  shame. 

Hers  is  the  glory  of  eternal  youth 

Blended  with  age  eternal.     As  the  spring. 
Flower  and  bloom  perpetual  does  she  bring 

( )ut  of  tlie  sun  and  soil  and  wind  of  Truth. 

To-day  her  sjiring  time  bloom  returns  again, 
But  ripened  into  rich  maturity 
Of  fruit  an<l  harvest,  as  rejoicingly 

She  gathers  her  autumnal  wealth  of  men. 

The  splendor  of  the  past  is  on  her  brow ; 

The  promise  of  the  future  in  her  eyes; 

.\nd  that  high  worth  of  hers  that  can  despise 
Future  and  past,  to  meet  the  living  now. 

Hers  is  the  my.stery  of  motherhood, 
Unreasoning  love  that  asketh  no  return. 
.\nd  fires  calm,  yet  passionate,  tliat  burn 

Warm  through  the  cold  rains  of  ingratitude. 

Hers  is  the  power  of  the  restless  main 
That  draws  its  mighty  waters  from  afar ; 
Many  and  deep  her  hidden  fountains  are. 

Whence  having  drawn,  she  sendeth  back  again. 


She  layeth  her  foundations  on  the  deep ; 

Not  as  the  grass  or  flower  she  withereth ; 

For  she  sliall  live  when  the  soft  hand  of  death 
Has  wrapt  her  children's  children  into  sleep. 

So  let  us  call  her  mother,  even  we. 

Her  younger  children,  who  but  dimly  feel 
That  depth  of  tenderness  she  will  reveal 

Increasing  in  the  many  years  to  be. 

We  may  not  tongue  the  word  as  well  as  you 
Who  see  her  througli  the  golden  mist  of  years ; 
Your  laughter  may  be  deeper  than  our  tears, 

For  you  are  tried — and  we  have  yet  to  do. 

I'.ut  as  tlie  young  child,  weary  of  its  play, 

Calls  "Mother"  from  a  cause  it  can  not  know, 
So  suffer  us  to  call  her.    Years  will  show 

The  meaning  of  the  word  we  speak  to-day. 

Let  us  not  sing  of  that  we  know  so  well 

That  memory  wakens  at  a  light  word's  fall — 
The  mandolins  a-tinkle  down  the  hall — 

Clatter  of  feet — and  Founders'  Solemn  bell. 

Black  gowns  a-fluttcr  on  a  field  of  green — 
The  dull  red  embers  of  a  dying  fire — 
.\  full  moon  streaming  over  roof  and  spire — 

We  wait  for  time  to  teach  us  all  they  mean. 

i'.ut  lliis  we  know — our  mother  is  very  fair 
To  all  her  sons  who  love  and  .serve  her  yet. 
Now  that  the  kindly  hand  of  time  hath  set 

Her  forelicad  with  a  crown  of  silver  hair.

WINTER  IDYLL 


Dreaming  in  the  golden  light. 

Wandering  'neath  the  summer  skies, 
O'er  fields  and  woods  and  waters  bright, 

To  seek  for  all  our  life  denies. 
I  wander  long  through  sun  and  shade, 

And  where  the  waving  pastures  bloom ; 
And  near  the  mower's  swinging  blade, 

I  breathe  the  clover's  sweet  perfume. 
The  sun-kissed  banks  with  silence  still. 

The  soothing  murmur  of  the  stream ; 
The  river  past  the  neighboring  hill, 

Flows  like  a  languid  lover's  dream. 
The  cruel  wind,  the  sleets  and  snows. 

Can  never  from  my  vision  take. 
The  love  which  nature's  smile  bestows, 

The  peace  which  she  alone  can  make. 

George  Allex  Kerb.\ugh. 


TERRA  INCOGNITA 

When  Daphne  plays,  I  know  not  why, 
But  woven  in  the  harmony 
I  hear  a  deeper,  softer  tone, 
Apart  from  other  chords,  alone; 
A  strain  that  starts  to  lilt  and  play 
Like  laughing  brook  in  sunlit  May, 
But  always  ends  with  wistful  sigh 
When  Daphne  plays. 


And  3-et  'tis  all  in  vain  I  try 

To  penetrate  the  mystery 

Of  that  fair  unknown  world  which  lies 

Behind  the  sapphire  of  her  eyes; 

That  land  whose  borders  I  descry 

When  Daphne  plays. 

Meigs  Oliver  Frost. 


A  LYRIC  OF  THE  SCRUB 

We  don  our  sticky  clothing  with  bravely  hidden  loathing, 

We  do  our  best  to  bear  a  dauntless  mien, 
And  at  the  door  you'll  find  us  with  the  varsity  behind  us, 

For  we  know  that  four  fifteen  means  four  fifteen. 
But  the  first  team  doesn't  worn,-,  and  it  smiles  at  all  our  flurry, 

(Though  we  do  sometimes  contrive  to  scare  a  sub,) 
For  its  the  old,  old  story,  that  our  only  taste  of  glory 

Is  when  we  hear  "The  Hoorays  for  the  Scrub!" 

It  warms  us  like  a  tonic  when  we  hear  the  coach's  chronic, 

"Now,  scrub,  I  want  to  see  you  hold  that  line." 
Ah,  how  our  fierce  eyes  glisten  as  we  grit  our  teeth  and  listen ; 

"One  — three -eleven  -seven  -twenty-nine." 
And,  oh!  the  blessed  feeling,  as  we  scramble,  dizzy,  reeling 

To  our  places,  wondering  where  the  next  will  come. 
At  the  blas^  intonation  of  our  quarter's  declaration: 

"Well,  scrub,  I  rather  guess  that's  holding  some.  " 
But  the  first  team  doesn't  worry  when  they  say  "You've  got  to  hurry. 

Now  steady  up  and  give  those  men  a  rub," 
For  they  know  the  old,  old  story,  that  our  only  taste  of  glory 

Is  when  we  hear  "The  Hoorays  for  the  Scrub!" 

But  the  Varsity  kec])  f)ounding  with  assurance  ciuite  astounding, 

And  they  mock  us  with  a  supercilious  grin, 
And  they  haven't  any  fear,  for  tlwy  know  whom  the  bleachers  cheer  for 

When  the  game  is  really  ready  to  begin. 
But  it  surely  is  amazing  what  a  little  bit  of  praising 

Can  keep  us  happy  while  we  grind  and  grub ; 
For  crippled,  halt,  rheumatic,  together  wax  ecstatic 

When  the  leader  gives  "The  Hoorays  for  the  Scrub!" 

John  French  Wilson. 


A  TOAST 


Success  to  the  smart  set  that  studies  and  crams 

Beforehand  in  dihgence  thrifty, 
But  a  health  to  the  knight  of  the  make-up  exams, 

Who  howls  with  delight  at  a  fifty. 

They  have  given  the  college  their  labor — and  we, 
Who  were  never  intended  for  scholars. 

Have  as  cheerfully  given  the  second  flunk  fee 
Of  five  of  our  much-needed  dollars. 

We  furnish  the  sinews — they  furnish  the  brain. 

So  let  the  professors  all  damn  us; 
Their  motto  is  "  Labor  with  infinite  pain, " 

And  ours  "Dum  vivimus  vivamus!" 

John  French  Wilson. 


TO  MARCUS  AURELIUS 

Sweet  master,  I  was  hot  and  wild  and  proud. 
And  chance  it  was  that  brought  th)-  words  to  me. 
And  joy  it  is  that  I  have  learned  of  thee. 

For  with  thy  peace  and  purity  endowed 

Now  go  I  forth  to  shout  thy  name  aloud 

That  men  may  know  what  meaning  there  may  be 
In  hate  and  love,  in  joy  and  misery. 

Sweet  master,  they  are  hot  and  wild  and  proud.

Xineteen  Hundred  and  Ten  has  never  been  a  particularly  musical  class,  but  our  representation  on 
the  Clubs  has  always  been  large.  In  Freshman  Year  we  had  ten  men  on  the  Mandolin  Club  (one  half  the 
Club  in  point  of  numbers),  while  seven  men  were  on  the  Glee  Club.  We  had  a  larger  number  of  men  on 
the  Clubs  than  any  other  class.  Musical  memories  of  that  year  include  Willie  Greene's  really  unusual 
ability  on  the  'cello,  Ma  Mayer's  clarinet,  and  the  wailful  incubation  of  the  "Amaryllis  Waltz."  Another 
ex-member  now  does  musical  specialties  on  the  Keith  Circuit. 

In  Sophomore  Year  our  musical  contingent  had  decreased  to  nine.  The  most  important  event  of 
that  year  was  the  concert  and  dance  in  Baltimore,  which  many  of  us  remember  still. 

In  Junior  Year  we  had  ten  men  on  the  Musical  Clubs,  and  the  Play  brought  forth  all  our  latent 
musical  talent.  The  printed  score  of  the  musical  numbers  of  "Great  Caesar!"  remains  as  undying  testi- 
mony of  our  musical  ability  as  a  class.  Pete  Spaulding  was  Assistant  Manager  of  the  Musical  Clubs  that 
year. 

In  Senior  Year,  with  Leiny  training  the  choir  to  sing  Pennsylvania  Dutch  anthems,  Jimmv  as 
impresario  of  the  tinkling  mandolins  and  Mr.  Henry  Puflfer  writing  the  cheques,  Nineteen-Ten  controlled 
the  musical  activities  of  the  college.  We  gave  a  midwinter  concert  and  dance  at  the  Merion  Cricket  Club, 
and  after  that  turned  our  attention  to  the  Operetta. 

But  the  Operetta  we  cannot  dismiss  so  briefly,  as  it  was  really  a  memorable  affair.  Of  course  it  was 
not  a  class  production.  After  the  performance  of  "Great  Caesar!"  it  was  universally  agreed  that  the 
highest  possible  development  of  Junior  Plays  had  taken  place  and  no  further  improvement  could  be  hoped 


97 


for.  Accordingly,  a  Musical  Comedy  was  proposed  by  C.  Linn  Sailer,  '02,  to  be  produced  by  the  Musical 
Association.  The  idea  was  enthusiastically  adopted,  and  work  was  begun  after  Midyears.  The  plot  was 
concocted  bv  Ralph  Mellor,  '99,  and  Mr.  Seiler;  the  music  was  by  Mr.  Seller  and  dialogue  by  V.  F.  Schoep- 
perle,  191 1. 

Six  performances  were  given:  in  Roberts  Hall  (on  Junior  Night),  at  the  Germantown  Cricket  Club, 
West  Chester,  the  Merion  Cricket  Club,  Wilmington,  and  Baltimore.  For  most  of  the  troupe  it  was  the 
first  experience  of  being  "on  the  road."  Two  days  before  the  first  performance  Jimmy  Crowell,'  09,  who 
was  to  have  played  the  role  of  Evelyn,  fell  ill  and  was  unable  to  take  part.  The  part  was  assigned  to 
Jimmy  Whitall,  who  did  magnificently — especially  considering  his  brief  time  for  preparation. 

Nineteen-Ten's  share  in  the  Operetta  was  considerable.  Jimmy,  Mitch,  and  Leiny  were  in  the  cast. 
Crow,  Haines  and  Kenderdine  were  on  the  American  cricket  team.  Else,  Tomlinson,  Townsend  and 
Morley  on  the  English  team.  Skinny  painted  the  scenery,  Kendy  published  the  score, — and  Mr.  Henry 
Puffer  was  manager. 

Our  memories  of  the  Operetta  are  various.  Of  Skinnj-'s  trials  in  transporting  scenerv  much  might 
be  said.  How  Mitch  flirted  with  the  audience  and  wagged  a  suggestive  forefinger  at  the  front  row;  how 
radiantly  Evelyn  smiled  (and  why) ;  how  our  married  man  faced  the  footlights  as  sprightly  as  a  Bon  Ton 
Burlesquer;  how  Chris  danced  six  successive  dances  with  somebody  in  Wilmington;  how  the  porter 
fared  in  the  sleeper;  how  our  performance  in  Baltimore  was  enlivened  by  a  drenching  thunderstorm; 
and  how  Mr.  Henry  Hammerstein  Haines  afterwards  issued  a  call  for  $4  apiece  to  cover  the  deficit — 
these  are  but  a  few  of  the  incidents  that  recur.  The  Operetta  was  a  distinct  success.  To  require  the 
company  to  pay  for  the  shortage  incurred  by  the  lack  of  proper  advertising  insui-es  their  intelligent 
interest  in  the  financial  side  of  the  undertaking!  We  hope  that  the  students  will  have  more  oppor- 
tunities to  do  this  in  the  future.

.'\ct  II. — Haverford.     The  evening  of  Class  Day  of 
the  following  year  on  the  College  Cam- 
pus, Founder's  Hall. 

The  Plot:  The  Haverford  College  cricket  team  is  playing  in  England  and  at  one  of  the  games  meets  Evelyn,  who, 
with  her  father,  Lord  Hcathcote,  and  some  friends,  has  come  lo  watch  the  game.  .•\lex.,the  Haverford  Captain,  and 
she  fall  in  love  at  first  sight,  and  when  the  Americans  win  the  match  she  presents  him  with  her  scarf.  But  she  tells  him 
his  suit  IS  hopeless,  for  her  father  insists  that  she  choose  an  Englishman  and  he  has  picked  out  Hall,  the  English  Captain, 
as  her  future  husband. 

The  following  year  the  English  team  pays  a  return  visit  to  Haverford,  arriving  there  Class  Day  night  as  the  Seniors 
are  singing  on  Founder's  Hall  steps.  Evelyn,  with  her  father,  is  also  with  the  party,  and  all  are  welcomed  by  the  Presi- 
dent of  the  College  and  the  hosU  of  the  evening,  Alex,  pleads  with  Evelyn  to  elope  and  defy  the  command  of  her  father, 
but  she  refuses.  Two  of  the  professors,  learning  of  the  love  affair,  now  reveal  a  secret  lately  discovered,  that  .\lex.  is 
English  born,  though  brought  up  in  the  United  States.  The  only  objection  to  ihe  marriage  being  removed.  Lord 
Hcathcote  gladly  gives  his  consent.

FOOTBALT,

Although  Xineteen-Ten  has  won  her  athletic  fame  chiefly  on  the  cinder  track,  yet  she  has  contributed 
her  quota  of  football  players  as  well.  In  Freshman  Year  Frost  and  Ayer  got  into  the  first  game,  and  held 
positions  at  tackle  and  end  on  what  has  generally  been  conceded  to  be  the  best  team  that  ever  represented 
Haverford.  Then  too  vi-ho  has  forgotten  Art  Mutton's  long  end  runs  in  the  Lehigh  game -and  indeed  in 
all  the  games  where  he  was  sent  in  to  take  the  place  of  some  half-back  twice  his  size?  Meigs  got  his  H, 
thus  being  the  first  man  in  Xineteen-Ten  to  wear  the  letter;  and  Beer  got  the  cup  for  conscientious  work 
on  the  scrub.  The  class  team,  too,  should  be  mentioned,  which  braced  on  the  two-yard  line  and  held  the 
Sophs  to  a  o-o  score. 

In  Sophomore  Year  Frost  and  Ayer  had  left  and  we  were  not  regularly  represented  on  the  Varsity. 
Wilson,  Hutton,  Tomlinson,  Martin  and  Judkins,  however,  got  into  several  games  each,  and  Willard  espe- 
cially gave  promise  of  the  ability  he  was  to  show  later.  Jud  worked  faithfully  as  scrub  quarter  and  under 
his  effective  leadership  the  scrub  inspired  Beer's  lyric  reprinted  on  another  page.  Mitch  made  his  football 
debut  as  centre  on  the  Class  team  which  defeated  ipii  6  to  o.     It  was  Art's  long  run  that  did  the  trick. 

In  Junior  Year,  Tomlinson  and  Barrett,  a  newcomer,  held  positions  on  George  Bard's  eleven. 
Willard  was  always  ready  with  the  necessary  line  plunge  when  called  upon,  and  his  excellent  running  back 
of  punts  pulled  the  Scarlet  and  Black  out  of  many  a  hole. 

In  Senior  Year,  with  the  addition  of  Else,  Froelicher  and  Wheeler  Nineteen-Tcn  had  five  men  on 
the  Varsity.  Leininger,  Townsend,  Kenderdine  and  Bryan  were  in  one  or  two  games,  while  Skinny  still 
showed  the  same  plucky  work  on  the  scrub  which  had  awarded  him  the  scrub  cup  the  year  before. 

Our  last  season  was  not  successful  as  far  as  scores  go.  The  back-field  was  exceptionally  light. 
Captain  Tomlinson  and  Else  being  retired  from  the  game  in  mid-season  on  account  of  injuries,  Wheeler 
was  undoubtedly  the  star  of  the  team.  Weighing  but  a  scant  hundred  and  twenty-six  pounds,  his  daring 
red  head  was  seen  in  the  midst  of  every  play.  His  work  was  typical  of  the  grit  shown  throughout  the 
season  by  a  featherweight  team  fighting  against  far  heavier  opponents.

The  record  of  our  class  soccer  team  is  not  altogether  successful,  but  it  is  quite  creditable. 

In  Freshman  Year  we  were  badly  beaten  by  the  Sophomores. 

Sophomore  Year  we  were  beaten  by  191 1  in  the  second  game,  the  first  being  a  tie. 

Junior  Year,  having  beaten  the  Seniors  (sweet  revenge  after  the  game  in  Freshman  year!)  we  twice 
played  the  Sophomores  (iqii)  to  a  standstill.     The  third  game  they  won. 

In  Senior  Year  we  defeated  the  Juniors  and  hoped  to  win  the  interclass  championship  by  defeating 
1912.     We  tied  them  once,  but  in  the  deciding  game  their  goalkeeper  proved  our  hoodoo,  and  we  lost  o-i. 

The  lack  of  glory  for  our  class  team  has  certainly  been  atoned  for  by  our  part  on  the  varsity.  In 
Freshman  Year  Haverford  won  the  intercollegiate  championship,  largely  owing  to  Phil  Baker's  Ijrilliant 
work  in  the  forward  line.  He  made  all  our  goals  scored  in  the  championship  series  and  well  deserved  the 
soccer  H  awarded  him.  The  American  Cricketer  mentioned  him  as  the  best  collegiate  forward  of  the  year. 
Fumess  played  a  consistent  game  at  inside  right. 

During  Sophomore  Year  we  were  well  represented  on  the  first  by  Fumess,  Cadbury  and  Judkins. 
In  Junior  Year  Jud  had  gone,  but  David,  Palmer  and  Edwards  played  several  times  on  the  varsity. 
Fumess  won  a  socce.  H  this  year  and  Cadbun,-  was  elected  captain.  Harold  held  a  place  on  the  intercol- 
legiate eleven. 

Senior  Year  found  six  of  Nineteen  Ten  regularly  on  the  varsity  -  Captain  Cadbury,  Furness,  David, 
Gheen,  Allinson  and  Lewis.  In  the  intercollegiate  series  we  lost  to  Columbia,  Penn  and  Yale,  but  decisively 
defeated  Harvard  and  Cornell.     Cadbury  and  Gheen  were  awarded  the  soccer  H.

The  part  taken  by  Nineteen-Ten  in  the  gymnastic  activity  of  the  college  has  always  been  extremely 
creditable.  We  began  in  Freshman  Year  by  contributing  two  members  to  the  college  team,  Mason  and 
Phillips.  These  men  constituted  the  more  experienced  material  in  the  class,  but  the  inter-class  meet. 
inaugurated  that  year,  which  included  a  number  of  novice  events,  brought  out  any  amount  of  juvenile 
genius.  "Our  Eddie"  dragged  himself  away  from  a  chess  board  long  enough  to  capture  a  first  in  the 
novice  horse,  though  closely  pressed  by  Judkins.  Phillips  had  a  rather  easy  time  on  the  horse  in  the 
regular  events  and  Mason  -"Simian  Sam,"  as  he  was  afterward  dubbed  by  reason  of  this  feat— ran  away 
with  the  rope  climb.     Reg  exhibited  his  prowess  on  the  novice  rings. 

Sophomore  Year  saw  Mason  adding  points  to  the  college  score  in  all  the  meets.  J.  P.  was  vegetating 
in  Florida  then  or  he,  too,  would  have  been  on  the  team. 

With  the  advent  of  Junior  Year  a  new  light  rose  above  the  horizon.  Frequenters  of  the  gym  have 
since  become  familiar  with  Skinny's  lean  and  sinuous  form  writhing  on  the  parallels,  and  the  curiously 
subtle  air  which  the  absence  of  his  glasses  always  lends  him.  "Eddie"  David  also  graduated  from  the 
novice  horse  and  made  the  regular.     Sam  Mason,  too,  w-as  still  with  us. 

Senior  Year  saw  Edwards  captain  of  the  team  and  our  Class  well  rei>resented  by  Phillips  and  David. 
Edwards  did  exceptional  work  on  the  parallels  and  the  splendid  work  of  the  other  members  of  the  team 
contributed  a  great  deal  toward  making  this  Haverford's  most  successful  sea,son  for  some  years. 

And  even  now  our  influence  has  not  entirely  disappeared  from  the  Haverford  gymnasium.  "J.P. " 
Phillips  has  obligingly  consented  to  remain  another  year  as  a  Teaching  Fellow  and  in  addition  to  his  other 
arduous  duties  has  been  chosen  gym.  captain  for  the  next  year.  We  have  no  doubt  that  his  team  will 
duplicate  the  record  of  this  year's  aggregation.

In  no  other  sport  has  lYineteen-Ten  shown  more  marked  superiority  than  in  Track.  We  found  our 
place  three  weeks  after  entering  College  by  signally  defeating  the  Sophomores,  44  to  27,  in  the  Fall  Meet, 
winning  all  the  events  except  the  Shot  and  the  High  Hurdles.  We  repeated  our  success  by  winning  the 
Spring  inter-class  meet,  the  score  standing  67  for  '10,  14  for  '07,  12  for  'oS  and  24  for  '09,  of  which  last  24 
points  8  were  scored  by  Williams  whose  points  now  count  for  Nineteen-Ten.  In  this  meet  we  carried 
away  eight  of  the  thirteen  first  places,— Palmer,  Langsdorf,  Baker,  Shultz  and  Gary  winning  their  events. 
Of  the  fifteen  men  who  ran  for  Haverford  that  spring,  seven,  Baker,  Gary,  Langsdorf,  Morris,  Palmer, 
Roberts  and  Shultz  were  Freshmen,  and  four  Freshmen,  Baker,  Langsdorf,  Palmer  and  Roberts,  composed 
the  Relay  Team  which  easily  won  first  place  in  the  Penn  Relay  Garnival,  the  time  being  3.33  without  our 
men  being  pushed.  That  year  Haverford  defeated  Lehigh,  Wesleyan  and  New  York  University  and,  in 
the  IntercoUegiates,  Baker  came  in  fifth  in  the  mile,  in  4.23,  unofiicial  time.  During  the  season  Palmer 
equalled  the  college  records  in  the  100  and  the  220  and  set  a  new  mark  in  the  Quarter,  while  Baker,  lapping 
his  competitors  in  the  Lehigh  meet,  lowered  the  mile  record  by  eight  seconds.  Palmer,  with  62  jioints  to 
his  credit,  won  the  Walton  Cup,  awarded  to  the  highest  scorer  during  the  season. 

We  began  our  Sophomore  Year  by  again  winning  the  Sophomore- Freshman  Fall  meet  by  the  score 
of  45-26— being  defeated  only  in  the  Broad  Jump  and  in  the  High  Hurdles,  which  we  forfeited— and  also 
won  again,  in  easy  fashion,  the  Spring  Inter-class  meet,  the  scores  standing  '10,  57;  'eg,  26;  '08  and  '11, 
17  points  each.  We  again  took  8  firsts.  Palmer,  Froelicher,  Roberts  and  Morris  winning  their  events. 
Although  we  had  lost  Baker,  Langsdorf  and  Shultz,  we  again  had  seven  men  on  the  College  team :  Palmer 


iir 


Morris,  Roberts,  Judkins,  Gary,  Wilson  and  Froelicher;  and  Palmer  and  Roberts  again  ran  on  the  Relay 
Team,  with  Wilson  as  first  substitute.  This  year  Haverford  tied  with  Lehigh  and  defeated  New  York 
Universit)',  and  in  the  latter  meet  Palmer  lowered  his  own  record  in  the  220  by  two-fifths  of  a  second.  With 
a  total  of  66  points,  Palmer  for  the  second  time  won  the  Walton  Cup. 

In  the  Junior  Year,  by  replacing  Judkins  and  Wilson  with  Develin  and  Williams  we  kept  the  number 
of  our  Varsity  men  at  seven,  and  again  Palmer  and  Roberts  ran  on  the  Relay  Team.  As  in  the  preceding 
two  years  we  won  the  Spring  Inter-class  meet.  Palmer,  Roberts,  Gary  and  Froelicher  winning  their  events, — 
our  score  being  58  against  41  for  '09,  17  for  '11  and  10  for  '12.  In  this  meet  we  took  first  and  second 
places  in  the  Discus,  a  new  event.  Haverford  again  repeated  the  performance  of  the  year  before  by 
tying  Lehigh  and  defeating  New  York  University  but  was  defeated  by  Lafayette,  a  new  rival.  In  the 
Intercollegiates  at  Harvard,  Palmer,  starting  on  the  second  line — a  yard's  handicap — was  beaten  out  in 
the  Quarter  by  about  a  foot. 

In  the  Senior  Year  we  increased  the  number  of  our  Varsity  men  to  eight — Gaptain  Palmer,  Gary, 
Davis,  Else,  Froelicher,  Morris,  Roberts,  and  Williams.  In  a  hotly  contested  trial  Palmer  and  Roberts 
kept  their  places  on  the  Relay  Team,  with  Davis  as  first  substitute.  We  lost  the  Interclass  Relays, 
in  spite  of  Palmer's  splendid  finish,  but  we  won  the  Spring  Interclass  meet  in  a  "  walk-over,  "  the 
scores  standing  64  for  us,  40,  ig  and  3  for  '13,  '12  and  '11  respectively.  In  the  fourteen  events  we  took 
nine  firsts, — Gary,  Else,  Froelicher,  Morris,  Palmer  and  Roberts  winning  their  events — and  Else  set  a  new 
mark  in  the  Discus  throw,  which  performance  he  gives  promise  of  repeating  before  the  season  is  over. 
In  this  meet  McGonnell,  '13,  broke,  by  one-fifth  of  a  second  the  100-yard  record  held  jointly  by  Palmer, 
Brown,  '01,  and  Hall  '02.  The  interest  in  Track  is  great  and  there  is  good  material,  especially  in  the  under- 
classes, so  that  we  look  forward  not  only  to  success  in  the  meets  which  Manager  Froelicher  has  arranged 
with  Lehigh,  New  York  and  Johns  Hopkins,  but  to  a  place  in  the  Intercollegiates  as  well.

While  \ineteen-Ten  has  only  once  won  the  inter-class  championship  in  Cricket,  yet  we  have  done 
creditably  and  given  our  share  of  men  to  the  various  teams.  In  Freshman  Year  we  managed  to  almost 
double  the  Sophomore  score  but  were  beaten  by  the  Seniors.  Fumess  and  Hutton  represented  us  on  the  first 
eleven,  Cadbury  and  Mason  on  the  second,  and  Judkins,  Kerbaugh,  Haines,  and  David  on  the  third.  Art 
got  the  Cope  and  Hinchman  prize  bats  for  the  best  averages  of  the  season,  Harold  received  the  bat  and 
cup  for  the  best  Freshman  batsman  and  best  all-aroimd  Freshman.  Sam  won  the  Improvement  Bat  and 
the  Shakespeare  Bat,  for  the  best  average  in  the  inter-class  games,  while  Earl  was  the  best  Freshman 
bowler.  In  Sophomore  Year  Mason  joined  Furness  and  Hutton  on  the  first  XI,  while  Judkins  and  Cadbury 
held  positions  on  the  2nd,  and  Kerbaugh,  Haines,  Edwards,  and  David  played  on  the  3rd  XI.  Art  won 
his  colors  this  year,  and  again  took  the  Cope  Bat,  while  Jud  won  the  Improvement  Bat.  In  Junior 
Year  we  again  were  able  to  defeat  1909,  but  lost  to  191 2.  This  year  the  team  took  a  trip  to 
Canada,  \ineteen-Ten  being  represented  by  Furness,  Hutton,  and  David.  Edwards,  Cadbury, 
Haines,  Ristine,  and  David  all  made  the  second,  while  Kerbaugh  and  Palmer  represented  us  on  the 
third.  Harold  won  his  colors,  the  Cope  Bat  for  the  best  average  on  the  first,  and  also  the  Prize 
Fielding  Belt,  while  David  won  the  1885  Bat  for  the  best  average  on  the  second.  For  the  present 
year,  the  indications  are  promising.  The  class  team  defeated  the  Juniors  easily,  the  score  being  129  to  60. 
The  Sopomores  also  were  decisively  beaten,  143  to  79.  F'or  the  first  XI  Manager  Haines  has  arranged  a  good 
schedule  of  games,  including  various  teams  of  the  Cricket  Club  League,  and  also  Pennsylvania  and  Cornell. 
Nineteen-Ten's  representation  on    the  various   teams  is    Fumess,   Cadbury,   Haines,   Kerbaugh,   David, 


131 


Palmer,  Edwards  and  Ristine.  "Wogglebugs"  of  such  well-known  standing  as  Gary,  AUinson,  Morley, 
Wheeler  and  Shoemaker  are  candidates  for  the  class  team,  and  some  of  these  have  even  been  seen  on  the 
second  and  third  elevens. 

With  the  incentive  of  the  English  trip  all  Haverfordians  are  working  hard  to  turn  out  a  team  that 
will  be  a  credit  to  Haverford  Cricket.  The  men  will  sail  from  New  York  by  the  Baltic  the  day  after 
Commencement.  The  first  game  abroad  will  be  played  at  Malvern  on  June  27-28,  and  for  the  next  month 
the  team  will  tour  England,  meeting  the  following  elevens:  Cheltenham,  Clifton,  Marlborough,  Marylebone 
C.  C,  Haileybury,  Harrow,  Eton,  and  Tonbridge.  The  last  match  will  be  played  about  August  1st,  and 
most  of  the  team  will  return  after  that  by  the  American  Line  to  Philadelphia,  arriving  about  the  middle 
of  August. 

Prospects  for  the  tour  seem  hopeful.  Captain  Furness  is  encouraging  ever^'one  to  come  out.  Sev- 
eral cricket  meetings  have  been  held  to  arouse  enthusiasm;  the  alumni  have  shown  great  interest,  and 
there  is  everv  indication  of  a  good  season  both  at  home  and  abroad.

Times  Have  Changed 

Fifty  years  ago  a  property  owner  accepted  a  contract  of  insurance,  drawn  by  the  company  insuring 
him,  with  a  feeling  of  perfect  security.  At  the  present  time  the  complexities  that  surround  the  business 
make  this  impossible,  owing  to  the  tremendous  growth  of  cities  (making  a  congestion  of  values),  the  general 
use  of  electricity  and  steam,  the  common  handling  of  gasoline  around  private  stables  and  garages  by  care- 
less and  inexperienced  people,  and  many  other  dangers  of  a  similar  nature.  By  reason  of  these  and  other 
causes,  the  companies  have  placed  restrictions  in  their  policies  that  in  many  instances  would  make  the 
contract  void,  unless  modified  to  suit  the  individual  case. 

Many  new  branches  of  Insurance  have  developed  in  the  last  quarter  of  a  century  including  Legal 
Liability,  Burglary,  Boiler.  Fly-wheel  and  Automobile,  and  to-day  it  is  almost  impossible,  unless  made 
a  specialty,   for  any  one  to  know  the  various  requirements  and  conditions  of  insurance  policies. 

The  well-equipped  broker  is  a  specialist,  and  proves  his  usefulness  by  his  ability  to  draw  up  forms  of 
contract  to  suit  each  case,  his  knowledge  of  the  financial  responsibility  and  fairness  of  the  various  compa- 
nies, his  knowledge  of  rates  and  the  means  by  which  they  may  be  reduced,  his  thorough  familiarity  with 
the  policy  conditions  and  his  ability  to  render  to  the  assured  every  possible  service  in  case  of  loss.  To-day 
he  is  recognized  to  be  as  necessary  in  his  line  as  the  doctor,  the  lawyer,  or  any  other  professional  man.
