To  the  Class  of  1920,  the  death  of  Isaac  Sharpless  brought  a  pro- 
found sense  of  loss.  Our  first  impressions  of  Haverford  were  under 
his  presidency.  His  chapel  talks,  in  which  were  mingled  so  much  wis- 
dom and  a  diplomacy  that  seemed  more  to  suggest  than  to  lead,  were 
to  us  lessons  in  calm,  unbiased  judgment.  By  incomprehensible  means, 
liis  thcnights  and  wishes  forestalled  friction,  compelled  respect,  and  were 
accepted  often  as  our  own,  so  persuasive  was  the  inspiration  of  his  ex- 
ample. Thus  we  early  came  under  the  influence  of  his  breadth  of 
vision,  liis  absolute  sincerity  and  rectitude. 

Haverford  stands  as  his  lasting  monument.  All  of  its  truly  great 
features  today  we  owe  to  him.  His  life  work  is  before  us  in  the  spacious, 
sweeping  beauty  of  the  campus,  in  the  traditions  of  clean  sportsmanship 
and  fair  play,  in  the  high  scholastic  standard,  in  the  renown  of  the  col- 
lege, and  in  the  devotion  to  high  spiritual  values.  He  built  the  very 
fibre  of  his  life  into  the  college.  His  work  lives  on  in  the  lives  of  those 
who  knew  liim.  of  those  who  before  us  developed  their  ideals  and  pur- 
poses under  his  guidance  at  Haverford.  These  are  the  countless,  un- 
traceable influences  of  a  man  who  has  left  the  world  a  better  place  for 
his  passage  through  life.  Isaac  Sharpless'  work  can  not  cease;  the  seeds 
he  has  planted  by  precept  and  example  are  growing  into  agencies  for 
the  betterment  of  humanit\.  His  was  a  character  that  stood  out  above 
liis  contemporaries,  a  product  of  tliat  discipline  of  will  to  high  ends  that 
alone  forms  true  and  noble  natures.

Ours  is  the  last  class  at  Haverford  to  study  the  art  of  Chaucer. 
tile  majestic  verse  of  Milton,  and  the  broad  humanity  of  Shakespere 
under  the  inspiration  of  Dr.  Gummere.  We  are  the  last  to  be  thrilled 
by  his  scholarly  and  brilliant  teaching;,  with  a  real  understanding  and 
reverence  for  the  masters  of  English  literature.  Charmed  by  his  genial 
sense  of  humor,  keen  imagination,  and  ever  youthful  enthusiasm  for  his 
subject,  the  minutes  flew  all  too  rapidly  as  we  drank  in  the  beauties  of 
verse  and  prose  at  his  feet. 

,  Those  of  us  who  were  fortunate  enough  to  know  him  outside  of 
the  classroom  learned  to  appreciate  more  fully  his  kindly  nature,  bril- 
liant cnn\ersatii>n.  and  quick  repartee.  Gifted  with  a  remarkable  mem- 
or\ ,  he  hail  at  his  command  an  endless  number  of  stories  and  quotations 
from  the  literatures  of  the  world,  which  poured  in  a  glittering  stream 
from  the  rich  store-house  of  his  mind. 

However  much  in  the  future  we  may  be  engrossed  in  the  stress 
and  turmoil  of  the  world,  the  name  of  Chaucer  or  Shakespere  will  in- 
evitably awaken  in  our  memories  the  beloxed  figure  of  him  who  was  at 
once  a  great  teacher,  a  profound  scholar,  and  a  true  friend.

Hail  to  the  Class  to  its  work  that  advances! 

Honored  and  blessed  is  the  mantle  we  wear. 
'Tis  ours  to  ensure  that  our  life-work  enhances 

The  fame  of  the  name  in  our  hearts  that  we  bear. 

"Honor  to  Haverford!" 

Be  our  one  j^uidinfi  word, 
"Honor  and  love  to  our  mother  of  mind." 

Hravely  and  lo\ally, 

Humbly  and  ro\ally, 
Forward  she  leads  us.     Laji  not  behind! 

Forth  to  the  conflict  and  forth  to  the  sorrow. 

Gaily  we  march  in  the  pride  of  our  youth  ; 
May  we  have  grace  from  her  teaching  to  borrow 
The  courage  to  follow  the  beacon  of  Truth. 
"Honor  to  Haverford!" 
Be  our  one  guiding  word, 
"Honor  and  love  to  our  mother  of  mind." 
Bravely  and  loyally, 
Humbly  and  royall) , 
Forward  she  leads  us.     Lag  not  behind! 

May  the  first  struggles  not  warp  our  perspective  ; 

O,  may  we  learn,  as  the  first  sorrows  fall, 
Our  duty  to  others.     Then  be  we  effective 

For  the  world  and  our  College  to  answer  the  call. 

"Honor  to  Haverford!" 

Then  be  our  guiding  word  ; 
Courage  and  meekness  and  promptness  of  mind 

May  we  find  for  the  burden, 

And,  seeking  no  guerdon, 
As  upward  she  leads,  may  we  not  lag  behind!

Born,   Delta,   Pa.,  Sept.    13,    189Q 
Entered  Freshman  Year  from  West  Ches-

Football     Squad,      (2);     Scientific     Society; 
Teaching    Fellowship.      Service:    U.    S.    N. 

We  feel  that  the  least  we  can  do  to  express  our 
adiniration  for  this  intellectual  giant  «ho  graduated 
in  three  vears  is  to  allot  him  a  separate  compart- 
ment all  by  himself,  and  we  pleaded  long  with  cuu 
artist  to  complete  the  picture  by  drawing  a  pair  of, 
well,  Mississippi  marbles;  but  he  refused  because 
he  would  not  lower  the  tone  of  the  faculty.  The 
Sphinx  had  nothing  on  the  Doctor,  and  if  he  ever 
descended  to  the  great  American  indoor  sport,  which, 
of  course,  he  doesn't,  the  absolute  immobility  of  his 
expression  would  have  netted  him  much.  But,  of 
course,  he  doesn't  play.

Trixie  was  ill  so  much  of  the  time  that  he  decided 
to  give  up  the  hopeless  task  of  catching  up,  and 
accordingly  he  left  to  break  into  business.  He  left 
a  desolate  class  and  the  reputation  of  being  one  of 
the  fiuinlest  white  men  that  ever  lived.

Entered  Freshman  'i  ear  from  Haverford 
Townsliip  High  School,  (ilee  Club,  (1.  2), 
Quartette,  (2  ). 

When  the  war  broke  everything  up,  "Steve"  de- 
parted for  the  service  and  never  came  back;  but 
much  to  our  chagrin  he  betook  himself  and  his 
potent  bass  voice  to  Svvarthmore.  How  are  the 
mighty   fallen!

vice:  Penn.  S.  A.  T.  C. 

The  class  lost  a  shining  intellectual  light  when 
"Les"  left  us.  He  was  one  of  the  quiet,  unobtrusive 
type,  but  he  left  a  big  hole.

Jerrv  dashed  into  the  army  at  the  first  opportunity 
and  was  gone  so  long  that  he  jus'  naturall\  couldn't 
get  back.  We  were  all  expecting  him  to  put  Haver- 
ford  on  the  baseball  map,  too.

Smoker  Committee,    (  2  I . 

"Panker"  was  with  us  for  so  short  a  period  that 
we  were  just  beginning  to  realize  what  a  fine  hoy 
he  was  when  he  left  us.  We  predict  that  he  will 
keep  things  stirring  down  at  HahHcniann.

U.  S.  Naval  Radio  Service. 

Branson  has  made  his  home  in  Lloyd  with  "Bob" 
Smith  for  four  years  now,  and  we  predict  a  happy 
time  for  his  wife,  because  he  seems  to  have  the  con- 
stancy habit.  Despite  the  fact  that  we  may  have 
been  bored  b\-  too  much  wireless,  we  all  liked  Bran- 
s(ni,  and  are  sorry  that  he  couldn't  get  his  diploma 
along  with  so  many  of   his  friends.

"Moll"  burned  more  midnight  oil  than  any  person 
up  to  the  advent  of  Mr.  Timbres,  but  that  didn't 
prevent  his  being  an  awfully  fine  fellow,  and  in 
addition  one  who  could  woo  strains  of  passing 
sweetness  from  his   beloved   violin.

Neither  he  nor  the  college  will  regret  it.

Harrv's  departure  to  minister  to  the  war's  blinded 
veterans  was  an  irreparable  loss  to  our  cla^s  and  a 
source  of  keen  regret  to  every  man  in  it.  When  he 
left  we  were  deprived  not  only  of  one  oif  our  closest 
and  dearest  friends,  but  also  of  a  living  inspiration 
from  day  to  day.  May  his  shadow  never  grow  less

All  Rome  we^t  when  "Heine"  went  back  to  old 
"Minnopolis."  The  class  went  down  en  masse  to 
see  his  train  go  through  and  the  gloom  was  thick 
enough  to  cut  into  slabs.  We,  the  editor,  wept  bit- 
terly and  we're  proud  of  it.  Everybody  liked 
"Heinie"  and  many  loved  him,  and  it's  a  glad  mo- 
ment for  us  all  when  the  old  boy  gets  down  to  see 
us.  There's  always  a  Welcome  on  the  doormat  for 
him.

Not  only  the  class,  but  every  robin  and  sparrow

"Shorty"  played  more  football  for  his  size  than

the  good  old  smile  that  never  came  off.  "That's

"Clare's"  departure  to  join  the  navy  was  regret-

forthwith  to  cut  his  stock  of  cigarretes  in  half. 
"Clare"  and  the  National  certainly  lent  tone  to  the 
place  and  we  witnessed  his  departure  with  much 
regret.

him  away,  leaving  an  aching  void  in  the  class  face.

of  anecdotes.  His  famous  laugh  was  used  in  the 
last  offensive  with  telling  effect.  1920  stock  took  a

_^____  but  nobod\'  would  admit  it.  Flushed  with  this  first  triumph  over  Roberts' 
Rules  of  Order  we  proceeded  to  elect  cane  men,  for  the  struggle  which  was  looming 
dark  on  our  horizon.  Much  to  his  surprise,  the  burly  Phelps  was  chosen  one  of  the 
trinity  to  uphold  the  honors  of  the  newborn  class  in  the  dire  fray,  and  though  he  pro- 
tested strenuously,  he  was  sternly  adjured  to  do  his  duty.  It  was  not  until  we  saw 
him  in  one  of  Babbitt's  quaint  gym  suits  (Tear  off  the  coupon;  $1.^8.  money  not  re- 
funded )  that  we  realized  the  enormity  of  this  mistake.  Thorpe  and  Hill  having  been 
assigned  as  running  mates  to  the  Herculean  Charles,  the  class  prepared  tor  battle.**** 
The  battle  being  over,  the  next  thing  t(j  claim  our  attention  was  the  leading  role 
in  the  Freshman  Entertainment,  in  the  one  night  stand  which  the  Sophomores  were 
staging  on  Walton  Field.  Muritiiri,  te  salutanius.  and  we  surrendered  the  last  shreds 
of  our  self-respect  to  the  shrieking  stands.  After  wrestling  with  temptation,  and 
scrambling  like  an  egg.  refreshments  were  served  in  the  form  of  seven  baskets  of  ripe 
tomatoes.  Then  the  concourse  repaired  its  clothes  and  to  Barclay,  where  we  received 
our  fell  badges  of  servitude,  caps  and  market-baskets.  A  pleasant  time  was  had  by  all. 
The  frenzied  varictv'  of  our  da\s,  during  the  succeeding  week,  was  only  surpassed 
by  the  frenzied  variety  of  our  nights,  and  the  tireless  Sophomore  Hazing  Committee 
was  ever  with  us,  showing  a  most  flattering  attention  at  all  times  of  the  day  and  night, 
taking  us  on  frequent  personally  conducted  tours,  en  deshabille,  to  all  points  of  inter- 
est. Ever\bod\  we  met  was  interested.  Toogie.  clad  only  in  pajamas,  was  forced  to

mates  of  neighhoriiif,'  institutions  were  editied  by  tlie  spectacle  of  seven  sketchily  clad 
gentlemen  ba\  ing  at  the  moon  beneath  their  windows.     Them  was  mad  days. 

After  the  festivities  we  proceeded  to  organize  ourselves  to  some  degree  in  the 
daily  walks  of  life.  (We  did  this  because  we  were  required  to  keep  off  the  grass.) 
By  far  the  larger  colony  settled  in  Barcla\  North,  some  were  in  Merion,  and  the  re- 
mainder moved  into  the  new  section  of  Lloyd,  Kinsey  entry.  As  the  history  of  Kinsey 
appears  elsewhere  in  these  pages,  no  mention  will  be  made  here  of  that  remarkable 
gang. 

Once  settled  in  our  rooms,  we  took  stock  of  ourselves  and  looked  around.  Our 
first  choice  for  class  president  was  Russ  Fitts,  and  we  early  recognized  the  abilities  of 
the  budding  financier,  Scoop,  by  entrusting  to  him  the  care  of  the  (  imaginary  )  class 
funds.  Johnnie  Williams  sprang  into  immediate  prominence  by  his  \aried  talents  for 
entertainment.  Trixie  Brodhead  early  made  his  mark  in  North  Barclay  to  such  an 
extent  that  he  became  a  marked  man.  and  was  the  inspiration  of  Lncle  Ike's  famous 
observation  about  a  hiatus  in  the  college  course.  Those  of  us  who  happened  to  return 
late  to  the  portals  of  learning  began  to  be  aware  of  a  watcher  in  the  lonely  tower, 
burning  the  midnight  oil,  or  candle,  till  the  first  grey  streaks  of  dawn.  Later  he  was 
to  be  famous  as  Moll  Flanders,  but  at  that  time  he  was  onU  the  nameless  wonder,  who 
sat  up  all  night  to  study.  Down  in  Merion  the  sprightlv  passages  between  Rollins 
and  Hynson  did  much  delight  in  the  weary  hours.  That  classic  phrase,  "Ain't  seen 
your  dambed"  will  go  down  in  history  side  b>'  side  with  that  other  no  less  famous  one, 
"I  can't  t'ink  of  de  name  of  de  boid." 

About  this  time  we  attained  such  proficiency  in  the  gentle  art  of  applied  cachinna- 
tion  that  everybody  down  in  Ardmore  set  their  clocks  when  the  ^L^th  class  was  in  ses- 
sion. Our  class  has  the  unique  distinction  of  owning  the  only  reliable  and  complete 
set  of  statistics  in  relation  to  the  number  of  "co'ses"  in  an  (  f  )  of  x.  Sitting  before 
Doctor  Babbitt  and  the  venerable  but  genial  skeleton   (  not,  we  trust,  from  the  family

closet),  we  were  initiated  into  the  mysteries  of  the  human  mechanism,  and  the  wonders 
of  sex.  The  great  question  in  those  days  was,  "How  many  zjmes  make  a  zymote?" 
Well  (ii)  we  remember  the  afternoon  when  Shaver  Spencer's  perverted  sense  of  humor 
caused  his  summary  ejection  from  tlie  class,  after  a  peculiarly  masterly  dissertation  on 
Jimm\ 's  part,  touchin;;  on  Entlotltilitil  Liiih'jcytrs.  EpithcHohltisloiiin.  Chorio/irpithe- 
liobltistonid,  etc. 

The  stupendous  victory  over  Swarthmore  did  more  than  anything  else  would  have 
done  to  make  our  class  an  integral  part  of  the  college.  We  venture  to  assert  that  more 
buttons  were  broken  off  Freshman  vests  as  a  result  of  this  heroic  climax  to  a  heroic 
season  than  from  any  other  class  in  college.  Of  course,  we  were  the  largest  class,  but 
that  is  a  trivial  objection.  Curfew  rang  that  night  till  half-past  ten,  animated  b\  re- 
lays of  perspiring  but  happy  Freshmen.  John  did  a  thriving  coughdrop  business 
throughout  the  next  week,  and  a  large  amount  of  coin  of  the  realm  changed  hands,  or 
to  speak  strictly,  pockets. 

The  tender  sensibilities  of  the  tonsorial  aesthetes  of  our  class  had  long  been  offend- 
ed by  the  flax-colored  mare's  nest  which  Jack  Reese  fondh"  belie\etl  to  be  a  head  of  hair, 
and  for  those  hard\  spirits  the  limit  of  endurance  was  finally  passed.  They  set  upon  the 
offender,  hip  and  thigh,  and  shore  him  of  his  locks,  and  verih',  there  was  rejoicing  in 
the  land  of  Moab,  from  Beershaba  unto  Dan.  This  ebullition  of  our  artistic  tempera- 
ments occasioned  a  diatribe  from  the  mighty  Howland  which  is  still  echoing  in  the 
basement  of  Chase  Hall. 

Old  Man  Midyears  with  his  scvthe  stalked  through  college,  and  we  knew  that 
spring  was  here,  seeing  Jesse  Forsytiie  collecting  mushrooms.  Almost  over  night  every- 
body blossomed  into  flannels,  Oscar  shaved  off  his  mustache,  and  thoughts  were  turned 
to  spring  sports.  But  at  this  juncture  our  entrance  into  the  war  caused  the  forma- 
tion of  tile  I'Miiergency  Unit,  so  called  because  there  was  no  emergency,  and  it  was  not

a  unit.  Ever\bod\'  was  provideii  witli  a  Boy  Scout  suit,  all  of  which  were  of  the  same 
size.  All  spring  programs  were  dropped,  and  we  prepared  to  learn  ever\thing  a  gen- 
eral ought  to  know.  About  all  we  learned  was  that  those  in  charge  didn't  know  any- 
thing, but  it  wasn't  considered  etiquette  to  tell  them  so.  Those  were  patriotic  days! 
How  we  helped  win  the  war  by  digging,  walking,  toasting  bread  and  fingers  on  Cobb's 
Creek  and  carrying  messages  around  the  campus  to  the  effect  that  "The  hill  is  high," 
or,  "The  sun  is  bright"!  Who  will  ever  forget  our  intensive  training  in  the  Infirmary 
front  yard,  when  we  produced  litters  at  Jimmie's  behest  and  gra\ely  circled  around  at 
the  command  :  "Guiding  right,  left,  and  center — forward,  halt!"  Or  the  terrible  priva- 
tions we  suffered  on  the  banks  of  Cobb's  Creek  in  behalf  of  our  struggling  country, 
when  we  cooked  our  own  chow,  ate  it,  played  Moses-in-the-buUrushes,  hide  and  seek, 
and  other  warlike  games!  Washington  at  Valley  Forge  had  nothing  on  us.  Nor  will 
we  ever  forget  the  thrill  we  got  \\hen  we  invaded  Norristown  and  marched  up  the 
main  street  in  a  company  front  that  resembled  the  line  on  the  chart  of  the  mean  level 
of  prices  in  the  last  ten  years. 

Throughout  the  latter  part  of  the  college  year  the  absences  in  our  ranks  increased 
in  number.  Grigg,  the  class  president,  Cochran,  Ted  Smith  and  Price  left  to  enter 
the  service  in  various  branches,  and  the  losses  in  the  upper  classes  were  very  heavy. 
Uncle  Ike  announced  his  retirement  from  his  oiTice  after  thirty  years  of  illustrious  oc- 
cupancy, and  before  we  knew  it  finals  had  come  and  gone  and  we  were  no  longer 
Freshmen.  We  separated  for  the  summer,  anxiously  awaiting  our  coming  opportunity 
to  show  the  college  what  a  real  Sophomore  class  shoidd  be  like.

F  there  is  ;in\  pride  wliicli  compares  to  that  of  the  well-knoun  Lucifer,  it  is 
that  of  the  well-knowa  Sophomore.  From  our  first  month  in  college  we 
had  evinced  a  disposition  to  guard  jealously  our  class  rights  and  prerogatives 
as  regards  the  Freshman  Class.  The  start  of  the  open  season  for  Rhinies 
was  marked  by  the  stentorian  admontion  of  "Lord"  Milne  to  Levi,  newly 
arrived  in  our  midst — "Get  of?  the  grass,  you  blanket}  blank  blank  Rhinie!" 
Levi  was  considerably  nonplussed,  and  even  among  the  bolder  spirits  the  advisability 
of  extending  our  rights  to  the  faculty  was  seriously  questioned. 

Although  the  prevailing  sentiment  of  the  class  had  been  in  opposition  to  hazing 
in  any  form  at  the  close  of  Freshman  \ear,  with  Omar  our  winter  garment  of  penitence 
we  a-pieces  tore,  and  started  upon  a  modified  program  of  discipline  for  the  lowly 
Rhinies.  As  it  turned  out,  this  modification  was  largely  theoretical,  and  there  was 
merriment  by  night,  as  of  yore.  All  the  traditions  of  Haverford  were  faithfully  up- 
held as  regards  the  chastening  of  Freshmen,  and  in  addition,  several  novel  features  were 
introduced,  chief  among  which  was  the  famous  electric  bench,  which  derived  its  juice 
from  a  one-inch  coil  and  twelve  dry  batteries.  With  this  same  equipment,  in  their 
window  seat,  Jimmie  Pierce  and  Toogie  later  ran  up  a  total  of  fort\-three  victims  in 
one  da\'. 

The  settling  down  process  was  accomplished  quicker  tiiis  \ear  than  before.  l"he 
abode  of  the  blest  was  shifted  to  South  Barchu ,  which  at  once  became  notorious  as  the 
ejrie  of  the  South  Barclav  Wrecking  Crew,  which  dread  organization  combined  all 
the  most  notable  features  of  the  Black  Hand,  the  Molly  Maguires.  and  the  Ku  Klu.\ 
Klan.  Their  m\stic  crimson  warning,  when  racked  on  the  victim's  door,  was  a  signal 
for  weeping  and  gnashing  of  teeth.  The  immortal  words  of  Samuel  Taylor  Coleridge 
can  alone  describe  the  miserv  of  the  unfortunate  victim:

"...  Beware!    Beware! 
His  floating  eyes,  his  inuss>'  hair! 
Weave  a  circle  round  him  thrice 
And  close  your  eyes  with  holy  dread, 
For  he  shall  perish  in  iiis  bed 
And  hit  the  trail  tor  Paradise (  ?)" 

The  new  president,  Ur.  William  Wistar  Comfort,  assumed  tiie  responsibilities 
which  Dr.  Sharpless  had  resigned  the  ) ear  before,  and  one  of  the  wa\s  in  which  he  early 
endeared  himself  to  the  hearts  of  the  undergraduates  was  his  liberal  attitude  toward 
dancing  on  the  campus.  Nobody  en\  ied  him  the  task  which  was  his.  in  view  of  the 
unsettled  conditions  and  the  restless  frame  of  mind  of  the  undergraduates,  who  were 
beginning  to  hear  more  and  more  clearly  the  call  to  arms.  Our  testimony  as  to  the 
skill  and  ability  with  which  he  met  the  difficult  situation  is  unnecessary.  Other  new 
arrivals  in  the  faculty  included  Dr.  Lunt,  Mr.  Carpenter,  and  Mr.  Post.  The  death 
of  Dr.  Baker  earl\-  in  the  fall  was  a  source  of  genuine  sorrow  to  all  who  had  learned 
to  admire  and  respect  him  both  in  and  out  of  the  class  room. 

We  elected  Burritt  president  of  the  class,  and  settled  down  for  a  long  stretch  of 
real  work  (some  of  us).  In  spite  of  the  ravages  of  war  in  the  ranks  of  our  football 
men,  enthusiasm  in  the  game  continued  imabated.  Ever\-  effort  was  bent  toward  put- 
ting a  good  team  in  the  held  to  combat  Swartiimore.  Doc  Bennett  accomplished  won- 
ders with  his  scanty  material,  but  it  was  not  wonderful  enough.  Wiien  the  Hnal  test 
arrived,  it  became  evident  that  none  of  Swarthmore's  gridiron  talent  had  been  subject 
to  the  draft,  probably  because  they  were  all  too  old.  Their  team  was  as  big  as  ever, 
and  in  addition  the  fleet  Mr.  Durbin,  having  established  legal  residence  there,  figured 
largelv  in  the  resulting  fray.  For  a  brief  period  our  small  but  undaunted  warriors 
were  on  the  large  end  of  the  score,  but  size  and  weight  began  to  tell,  and  in  the  end 
the  Garnet  steam-roller  swept  juggernaut-like  o\er  the  vanquished  but  unbeaten  Hav- 
erford  team,  rolling  up  an  unmentionable  score. 

Amid  scenes  of  intense  enthusiasm  our  first  Wogglebug  team  was  organized. 
Jimmy  Pierce  was  captain  and  razorback.  Shaver  Spencer  was  the  speedy  left  half, 
P'aglebeak  was  the  wily  field  general,  and  Gilbert  Thomas  Hoag  occupied  the  berth 
of  right  half.  With  this  constellation  of  stars  in  the  backfield,  high  hopes  were  enter- 
tained of  copping  the  college  championship.  Even  at  that  we  had  not  estimated  accu- 
ratel\  the  superhvmian  ingenuit\-  of  Pierce,  who  when  called  on  for  a  forward  pass, 
foxed  botii  his  team-mates  and  the  opposition  by  running  the  length  of  the  field  for  a 
touchdown.  Jimmie  Mullin  playeii  a  brilliant  game  at  center,  in  spite  of  the  fact  that 
without  his  glasses  he  could  not  see  a  foot  in  front  of  his  face,  to  say  nothing  of  a  foot- 
ball, and  played  b\-  the  touch  method  entirely.  This  was  the  famous  game  in  which 
the  two  teams  and  the  enthusiastic  spectators  spent  fifteen  minutes  in  search  of  the 
ball,  whicli  was  invisible  in  the  gloom  that  pervaded  the  center  of  the  field.  The  un- 
e.xpecteii  tie  in  which  the  fray  finished  necessitated  the  tossing  of  a  coin  (which  Scoop 
provided  free  of  interest,  due  to  the  patriotic  nature  of  the  occasion).  We  won  the 
toss,  to  determine  who  would  base  the  honor  of  facing  Tiny  Carr's  wonderful  eligi- 
bility formations,  and  immediatel\  bequeathed  that  honor  to  the  Juniors.  Needless 
to  say,  the  Carr  steam-roller  ne\er  faltered,  and  won  by  a  20-0  score. 

Winter  closed  in,  but  brought  no  snow  with  which  to  exercise  our  priceless  pre- 
rogative of  bombarding  the  Rhinies.  The  pentup  energies  of  the  class's  sprightlier 
spirits  broke  forth  in  a  series  of  startling  coups,  which  did  much  to  li\en  the  tedium.

Uinler  tlie  abU'  leailcrship  of  Williams  anil  Tliorpe,  (jraiul  Kxaltfil  Wreckers,  the 
South  Barcla)  Wreckinfr  Crew  made  its  name  feared  and  respected  in  ever\  quarter 
of  the  campus.  The  harc-hraineil  audacity  of  the  fearless  Hynson.  who  had  dared  to 
beard  them  lyin'  in  their  den.  was  rewarded  b\  a  number  of  dire  outrajjes,  the  least  of 
which  was  the  placing  of  coffee  jelly  in  his  bed.  Ihe  dwellers  in  Kinsey  upheld  the 
social  prestige  of  the  class  by  a  series  of  elaborate  entertainments.  The  Kinsey  Cor- 
poration was  at  this  time  afflicted  with  a  theatrical  furore.  The  musical  comedy  "Oh 
Boy"  was  in  town,  and  the  members  of  the  cast,  not  excluding  the  ladies  of  the  ensem- 
ble, were  devotedly  cultivated  under  the  leadership  of  Mr.  Worrell  and  Mr.  Pierce, 
whose  connections  with  the  stage  have  alwa\s  been  of  the  most  intimate  nature. 

Midyears  came,  ami  with  them  class  elections.  The  torch  was  passed  from  Bob 
Burritt  to  Chris  Roberts,  thus  adding  a  certain  fine  philosophical  Havor  to  the  position. 
The  remaining  months  of  winter  glided  by  rapidly,  and  w  ith  them  the  cursed  blight  of 
Jimmy's  Gym  passed  forever  from  our  lives.  O  Freedom,  sweet,  though  long  de- 
ferred !  Never,  never  again  would  we  perform  the  simple  (  very  simple )  calisthenics 
in  the  manner  of  the  North  Kensington  Orphan's  Home.  Never  again  would  we 
follow  with  dog-like  devotion  the  lithe  exolutions  of  Jimm\',  as  he  demonstrated  the 
intricacies  of  club  swinging.  Bangham's  ad\anceil  course  in  the  simpler  H\giene.  in 
which  we  discovered  why  the  floating  rib  floats,  and  why  we  digest  our  food  (  which 
has  always  been  a  mystery  to  us)  was  brought  to  a  reluctant  close.  But  not  before 
the  Dean  had  labelled  us,  in  his  playful  way,  "the  worst  class  in  college,"  because  of 
our  apparent  lack  of  respect  for  the  subject  in  general.  He  was  laboring  under  a  to- 
tally mistaken  impression,  for  we  shall  always  have  the  profoundest  respect  for  anyone 
who  lectured  a  whole  winter  on  nothing  at  all.  and  does  not  say  an\thing  about  it. 

Spring  was  heralded  by  the  electric  beer  sign,  which  graced  the  portals  of  Pierce 
and  Toogoo's  domicile.  After  turning  awa>  vast  numbers  of  the  disappointed  thirsty , 
its  doom  was  decreed  by  the  omniscient  Dean,  who  made  e\ery  effort,  however,  to  dis- 
cover the  secret  by  which  it  was  made  to  flash  on  and  off.       Ihe  spring  was  also  dis-

tinguished  as  that  in  which  occurred  our  first  class  victory  over  anvbody  at  all.  We 
scored  a  signal  and  smashing  triumph  in  the  Interclass  Track  Meet,  thanks  primarily 
to  the  superhuman  feet's  ( this  is  a  rotten  pun,  but  we  couldn't  resist  it )  of  Geckeler 
and  Silver.  Kamsler  the  only  contestant  in  the  two  mile,  won  his  race  by  a  close 
margin,  and  \\  ith  it  the  deciding  point.  His  laudable  attempt  to  make  the  trip  three 
times,  so  as  to  take  all  three  places,  was  unfortunately  ruled  out.  however.  Not  con- 
tent with  this,  we  also  annexed  the  college  baseball  championship. 

\V'ith  amazing  rapidity,  the  end  of  the  year  anproached.  Cordial  relations  were 
established  with  the  Freshmen  at  the  annual  love  feast,  at  which  the  hatchet  was  for- 
mallv  buried,  and  the  pact  sealed  with  copious  refreshments.  Not  so  cordial,  however, 
that  we  were  restrained  fromi  giving  a  farewell  course  of  intensi\e  training  to  five 
Freshmen  who  were  peculiarly  offensive  to  our  aesthetic  sense. 

But  on  the  serious  side  of  life.  man\  more  important  things  were  taking  place. 
We  had  our  last  class  with  Dr.  Dick  Gummere,  who  had  resigned  his  position  to  be- 
come the  Headmaster  of  Penn  Charter  School.  The  regret  with  which  we  marked 
his  departure  was  tempered,  however,  by  the  consolation  of  having  had  the  privilege 
of  obtaining  a  deeper  insight  into  the  beauties  of  Horace  and  \  irgil  under  his  sym- 
pathetic guidance.  Before  this  we  had  lost  Bob  Porter  and  Clarence  Miller,  who  en- 
tered the  Naval  Reserve  before  the  year  was  completed.  The  serious  aspect  of  the  war 
was  beginning  to  cast  the  shadow  of  uncertainty  upon  our  respective  futures,  and  no 
man  knew,  when  we  departed  from  college  in  June,  whether  it  would  ever  he  given 
to  him  to  return  again.

1"  the  opcniii};  of  Junior  'l  car  our  class  had  dwindled  to  such  an  alarming;  ex- 
tent that  a  class  meeting  hure  a  strong  resemblance  to  a  Prohibition  revival 
in  Milwaukee.  Our  far-flung  battle  line  extended  from  Europe  back  through 
all  the  most  prominent  S.  A.  T.  C.'s  as  far  as  Ardmore.  The  five  who  were 
left  to  uphold  the  honor  of  the  Class  of  I'^IO  proceeded  to  elect  officers,  the 
odd  man  being  appointed  to  a  position  of  great  responsibility  in  the  \  .  M. 
C.  A.  Spirited  competition  arose  among  the  faculty  to  corral  even  one  who  might 
dabble  his  feet  in  their  particular  pool  of  learning.  Brecht  fell  for  nineteen  hours, 
much  to  his  humiliation.  Helpful  sign  posts  appeared  on  the  campus,  directing  the 
hapless  wanderer  to  yodel  three  times  in  case  he  were  lost.  Grant's  Little  Giant 
Guaranteed  Insomnia  Cure  (three  doses  a  week).  f)therwise  known  as  Bib.  Lit,,  be- 
came the  largest  class  in  college,  with  five  members  in  full  standing. 

The  first  harbinger  of  reviving  hope  appeared  in  the  person  of  Thomas  Stubbs, 
home  after  storm\'  seas  at  the  Newport  Naval  Training  Station.  The  terrible  change 
which  war  had  worked  in  him  was  evinced  by  the  wicked  Piedmont  which  hung  pen- 
dant from  his  lower  lip,  which  (  the  cigarette  )  had  been  furnished  him  b\  the  mis- 
guided Red  Cross.  All  the  atrocities  did  not  occur  in  France.  We  forbear  to  men- 
tion the  pair  of  bones  hich  rattled  geniall\  in  his  breast  pocket.  Close  on  his  heels 
came  Heinz  and  Gil,  and  following  them  the  vast  horde  of  triumphnnt  warriors  fresh 
from  victories  at  Princeton,  ^  ale,  and   League  Island. 

Meanwhile  the  Urn'i  rfon/inii  had  turned  its  face  to  the  wall  and  gi\en  up  the 
ghost.  lea\  ing  the  Xfus  to  carry  on  the  fight  alone  under  the  able  direction  of  a  kalei-

descopic  series  of  (iirectors.  Harry  Hartman  hail  bravely  undertaken  the  orjiani/.ation 
of  the  Glee  Club,  and  'I'lnn  McConnell  had  performed  a  similar  function  for  the 
Mandolin  Club,  both  of  \\hich  were  well  imder  way.  The  soccer  team,  which,  under 
the  crafty  manafjership  of  Scoop,  had  an  ambitious  schedule,  was  our  only  official  ath- 
letic enterprise,  although  there  had  been  some  desultor\  exercise  taken  by  all  hands  at 
the  behest  of  the  facult\.  The  high  standards  which  have  always  been  maintained 
by  our  soccer  team  in  the  giving  of  letters  were  nobij-  upheld  when  the  Manager  and 
the  Coach  awarded  one  of  the  three  letters  to  Scoop.  Despite  this,  the  soccer  team 
had  a  successful  season,  winning  ten  out  of  twelve  games. 

The  end  of  the  Christmas  vacation  saw  the  return  of  the  great  majority  of  the 
class.  Eaglebeak  returned  from  New  Haven  with  an  extended  vocabulary  of  a  de- 
cided salty  savor.  Other  prominent  members  of  the  South  Barclay  Wrecking  Crew 
were  also  on  hand  and  the  mercury  rose  rapidl\'.  One  condition  which  they  encoun- 
tered immediatel\-  met  with  disfavor.  The  Office  had  helped  win  the  war  by  turning 
out  the  lights  at  eleven  o'clock.  It  wns  the  just  contention  of  the  Extreme  Left  that 
this  practice  should  cease,  in  view  of  the  fact  that  the  war  had  been  won  for  two  months 
now.  Unorganized  opposition  took  the  form  of  frantic  telephonic  appeals  to  Doggie 
and  the  Power-house,  and  a  series  of  midnight  mass  meetings,  each  more  daring  and 
destructive  than  the  last.  The  decision  of  the  faculty  that  Juniors  and  Seniors  join 
with  the  lower  classmen  in  taking  gym  was  properly  ignored.  The  general  dissatis- 
faction crystallized  in  the  organization  of  the  Bolsheviks,  of  whom  Comrade  Williams 
was  a  leading  spirit,  a  thinker  for  whom  we  predict  a  career  comparable  only  with 
that  of  Lenine  and  Trotzky.  The  dress  parade,  to  the  stirring  strains  of  the  Haver- 
ford  Mayonnaise,  replete  with  radical  banners,  bombs,  and  neo-Duma  costumes  caused 
many  converts  to  advanced  thought  in  the  dining-room.

At  the  organization  of  the  class  for  the  next  half  year,  the  preidency  vva-^  con- 
ferred upon  Toof^ie.  and  the  vice-presidency  upon  Lycett,  succeeding  Hartman  and 
Van   Sickle,  and  the  wheels  grounti  on. 

The  unutterable  depravity  of  Williams  and  \^an  Sickle  had  long  been  under  the 
sur\eillance  of  the  Detective  Agency.  It  was  well  known  in  Olympus  that  they  not 
oni_\-  openly  smoked,  but  indulged  in  all  sorts  of  rude  buffoonery.  Accordingly  stern 
admonitions  were  issued  from  Above  to  the  effect  that  "This  rowd\ism  must  cease," 
and  the  two  rowdies,  under  penalty  of  summarv  dismissal,  were  adjured  to  turn  over 
a  new  leaf.  This  incident  earned  them  the  much-envied  title  of  Bill's  Bad  Boys,  and 
embittered  the  two  boys  be>ond  expression. 

The  exigencies  of  war  had  hitherto  unfortunately  prevented  the  execution  of  the 
unctions  usually  performed  by  the  Purity  League.  But  now  that  it  was  spring,  and 
the  thoughts  of  the  \oiuig  men  of  Ardmore  lightly  turned  to  thoughts  of  love,  it  be- 
came incumbent  upon  the  ethicalh  inclined  to  reorganize  this  guild  and  take  the  Held 
at  once.  Mullin's  immortal  words,  "No  petting  on  my  precinct!",  became  the  rally- 
ing cry  of  its  cohorts.  At  the  eighty-sixth  annual  meeting,  the  office  of  Chief  Scout 
was  conferred  upon  Mullin,  and  the  membership  was  divided  into  squads  for  active 
service.  The  field  equipment  consisted  qf  flashlights,  rubber  shoes,  and  the  feeling 
that  accompanies  a  righteous  cause.  Space  does  not  permit  a  complete  exposition  of 
the  signal  success  which  attended  the  operations  of  this  body,  nor  a  reproduction  of  the 
engraved  note  of  thanks  and  appreciation  from  the  Mothers'  Club  of  Ardmore,  which 
hangs  in  the  inner  shrine. 

At  this  point  ue  must  stop  to  chronicle  the  grand  opening  of  the  Barcla\  Store. 
This  emporium  had  been  operating  on  the  honor  s\stem.  that  is  to  sa\ ,  en  a  charity 
basis.  Now,  however,  its  owners,  having  lost  a  great  deal  of  money  and  their  faith  in 
humankind,  took  their  chattels  out  of  the  hall  and  locked  them  up  in  a  room,  d.'spens-

in^  them  (iiil;.  under  the  watchful  eyes  of  Mar\  in  and  Bill  Silver.  The  complicated 
financial  system  worked  out  by  Fran  Silver,  the  Money  Master  of  the  organization, 
to  govern  its  capital  stock  and  outstanding  securities  has  challenged  to  this  da>  the 
comprehension  of  all  our  leading  economists,  including  Dollie  and  Milton  Kamsler. 
It  was  surprising  how  the  turno\er  went  down  and  the  proceeds  went  up.  This  lat- 
ter applied  also  to  the  prices. 

The  long  looked  for  arrival  of  the  government  bonuses  for  military  service  fur- 
nished an  immense  impulse  for  gazing  upon  the  wine  when  it  was  red,  and  getting  the 
most  (or  at  least  si.xty  dollars'  worth)  out  of  life.  This  ebuUitive  feeling  manifested 
itself  in  various  ways.  Games  of  chance  flourished  on  every  hand,  much  to  the  dis- 
gust of  the  losers  and  Clarence  Leuba,  whose  thunderous  diatribe  in  the  Xetcs  was 
the  immediate  cause  for  the  student  body's  officialh  expressed  disapfroval  of  the  great 
American  indoor  sport.  Those  with  a  passing  acquaintanceship  in  theatrical  circles 
immediatelv  looked  up  a  bevy  of  their  old  friends,  who  were  figuring  in  a  production 
then  in  town,  and  there  was  revelry  by  night.  The  pitiful  inadequacy  of  sixty  berrie; 
was  forcibly  brought  home  to  more  than  one  of  these  budding  Lotharios  of  the  Green 
Room,  and  man\  a  bud  was  nipped,  while  others  plumbed  their  jeans,  and  continued 
the  merriment  unabated. 

Preparations  for  the  great  social  e\ent  of  the  \ear.  Junior  Da> .  had  long  been 
under  way.  The  near  approach  of  that  function  caufed  a  great  final  spurt  of  energy 
on  the  part  of  all  Juniors,  who,  under  the  able  leadership  of  Jack  Reese,  spared  n:) 
efforts  to  make  the  e\ent  an  unparalleled  success.  The  gymnasium  was  beautifully 
decorated,  and  every  arrangement  was  made  which  could  in  any  way  add  to  the  suc- 
cess of  the  occasion.  Contrary  to  all  precedent  and  the  pe.sim'stic  predictions  of 
Brecht,  it  did  not  rain.  Conditions  were  romantically  correct.  A  large  life-like  moon, 
had  its  even  more  life-like  counterpart  in  the  gymnasium.     The  music  was  excellent.

of  b4.  He  had  been  for  tliirt\-two  \ears  professor  of  English  Literature,  and  was 
an  authorit\-  of  world-wide  renown.  His  loss  cast  a  shadow  of  sorrow  over  the  last 
few  da.\s  of  college,  and  affected  deeply-  not  only  those  who  were  close  to  him,  but  an 
immense  circle  (jf  friends  and   admirers.

¥age  Seventy 


SEMIVR    YEAR 


T  was  with  mirifiled  emotions  that  we  assembled  to  begin  our  last  year  at 
college.  We  gazed  upon  the  verdant  and  hopelessly  youthful  looking  Fresh- 
man Class,  and  realized  with  difficulty  that  we  had  been  in  the  same  condi- 
tion but  three  years  before.  In  short,  we  felt  immeasurably  old.  Gone  was 
tiie  joyous  abandon  of  Junior  ^  ear,  ami  our  siioulders  were  bowed  by  the 
weight  of  man\  responsibilities  \et  to  be  fulfilled.  An  examination  of  our 
bod\'  corporate  revealed  some  pleasing  additions,  in  the  persons  of  quite  a  number  of 
members  of  former  classes  who  were  returning  to  complete  their  courses.  Crosman, 
Osier.  Hallett  Doug  and  Kennie  C)li\er,  Earnest,  Philips,  Hartshorne,  Brockelbank, 
Tatum,  Moore  and  Haynes  were  welcomed  into  the  class  with  open  arms.  Van  Sickle 
stepped  into  the  presidential  chair,  and  the  \ear  was  begun. 

This  was  the  first  fall  since  our  Freshman  \ear  in  which  athletic  conditions  even 
approached  the  normal.  Under  the  leadership  of  Marney  Crosman  football  practice 
was  inaugurated  with  much  enthusiasm,  and  a  promising  turn-out  of  material.  ( )sler 
was  elected  captain  of  the  soccer  team,  and  led  a  large  number  of  candidates  out  to 
practice.  Owing  to  the  complete  change  of  personnel  and  unusual  conditions  else- 
where no  predictions  could  be  made  for  the  future  of  these  sports,  but  with  the  return 
of  some  of  the  old  stars  high  hopes  were  entertained. 

The  great  majority  of  the  class  settled  in  Barclay  Center  and  South,  while  the 
remainder  moved  into  their  olil  quarters  in  Kinsey.     The  third  floor  of  South  Barclay 


Page  Seventy-one 


was  entirely  populated  by  the  old  members  of  the  South  Barclay  Wrecking  Crew, 
while  the  coveted  Tower  apartments  were  held  in  joint  ownership  by  Burritt,  Wil- 
liams, Ted  Smith,  Jebh.  Brecht  and  Kamsler.  Kinse\  saw  the  return  of  Pierce,  Lv- 
cett,  Fitts,  Toojjood  and  Thornton,  after  a  \ear's  occupancy  by  Freshmen.  Fortun- 
ately we  were  blessed  with  an  unusually  fine  pair  of  half-breeds.  White  and  Petrie, 
who  with  \Villiam   Hastings  occupied  the  newl\'  constructed  quarters  in   Founders. 

The  various  college  offices  which  are  usually  tilled  b\  members  of  the  Senior  Class 
had  been  apportioned  according  to  custonii  at  the  end  of  Junior  year.  As  has  been 
mentioned,  Crosman  and  Osier  were  captains  of  the  football  and  soccer  teams  respec- 
tively, the  former  in  addition  occupying  the  position  of  president  of  the  Athletic  Cab- 
inet, and  the  latter  that  of  president  of  the  Student  Council.  This  position  had  been 
destined  for  Harry  Hartman,  but  his  much-lamented  decision  to  continue  his  war 
work  among  the  blind  during  this  year  left  the  office  vacant.  Harry  had  also  been 
elected  leader  of  the  Glee  Club,  which  position  was  later  turned  over  to  Johnnie  Wil- 
liams, The  Mandolin  Club  was  piloted  by  Toogie,  and  the  management  of  both  clubs 
was  entrusted  to  Fergusson. 

Rufs  Fitts  became  the  president  of  the  Athletic  Association,  and  Toogie  innocent- 
ly undertook  the  task  of  getting  out  the  Class  Ricorti,  the  business  end  of  which  was 
placed   in   Kamsler's  capable  hands. 

The  managership  of  the  football  team  fell  to  Silver,  and  that  of  the  soccer  team 
to  Hoag,  but  on  account  of  his  illness  it  was  transferred  to  Hallett.  Burritt  was  hon- 
ored with  the  double  distinction  of  being  captain  of  both  the  basketball  and  the  base- 
ball teams,  of  which  the  managers  were  Kearne\  and  Williams,  respectively.  The 
gym  team  was  captained  by  Doug  Knowlton,  and  managed  by  Van  Sickle,  The 
cricket  captaincy  was  as  \et  undecided,  but  was  later  filled  by  Doug  (Oliver,  Toogie 
holding  down  the  managerial  post.  Al  Hisey  once  more  was  chosen  to  pilot  the  track 
team,  but  at  his  departure  before  the  opening  of  the  season.  Silver  succeeded  him.  Jack 
Reese  was  the  business  mentor,  and  also  displa\ed  his  business  acumen  as  manager  of 


Page  Seveniy-two 


the  Cap  and  Bells  play.  The  reformatiuii  of  the  "News"  was  entrusted  to  Leuba, 
with  Mullin  at  the  ledger,  and  the  leadership  of  the  ^'.  M.  C.  A.  to  Gucker,  who 
followed  in  the  footsteps  of  Harris,  who  had  attained  the  honor  of  the  presidenc\  in 
his  Junior  War. 

The  fatal  da\  of  the  Swarthniore  game  drew  on  apace.  Ha\erford  entered  the 
arena  determined  to  do  or  die,  but  the  Garnet  phalanx  of  mercenaries  brooked  no  op- 
position, and  the  Scarlet  and  Black  warriors  went  down  to  defeat,  righting  gamely  to 
the  end.  Neither  the  skillful  coaching  of  Doc  Bennett  nor  the  high  leadership  and 
nagnificent  playing  of  Marney  Crosman  could  overcome  the  stark  fact  of  inadequate 
material,  or  the  realh   >uperb  machine  which  Swarthmore  produced. 

As  the  winter  progressed  the  Musical  Clubs  de\eloped  into  the  best  organizations 
of  the  kind  which  Haverford  had  ever  yet  put  behind  the  footlights.  The  season, 
which  included  the  usual  concerts  at  Manheim,  Atlantic  City,  and  the  final  home  pro- 
duction, was  a  great  success  in  every  way  and  this  sentiment  found  expression  on  every 
side.  During  the  same  period  the  basketball  season  had  come  to  a  fairly  successful 
close,  and  the  gymnasium  team  had  concluded  its  schedule  by  figuring  \ery  creditably 
in  the  IiitercoUegiates. 

The  advent  of  .Mid-years  was  indeed  a  doleful  occasion  for  us  in  more  ways  than 
one.  Some  of  our  most  highly  valued  members  wound  up  their  college  careers  at  this 
point,  having  completed  the  work  which  they  required  for  graduation.  Marne\'  Cros- 
man, Pop  Thornton,  and  Jack  Haynes  departed  from  our  midst  amid  universal  lamen- 
tations. Al  Hisey,  whose  condition  had  been  far  from  satisfactory  since  his  unfor- 
tunate accident  the  summer  before,  hail  alreaily  left  to  regain  his  strength  in  the  West, 
leaving  a  gap  in  our  class  body  that  was  keenly  felt.  The  cla.ss  elections  for  the  sec- 
ond half  year  resulted  in  the  choice  of  Toogood  for  President  and  Kenneth  Oliver  for 
Vice-President,  and  we  started  on  the  last  lap  of  the  course. 

No  record  of  Senior  year  would  be  complete  without  an  account  of  the  immortal 
deed  perpetrated  b\    Messrs.  W'illiiinis  ami   Hurritt  tn  the  complete  bewilderment  and 


Page  Sevenly-tliree 


consternation  of  the  local  constabulary.  This  precious  pair  were  emergin;;  (  we  will 
not  say  how  )  from  a  nearby  Temple  of  Terpsichore  when  their  attention  was  attract- 
ed simultaneously  b\  a  large  florid  barber  pole  across  the  street.  Words  were  un- 
necessary; craftily  the  two  crept  nearer  and.  biding  their  time  until  the  pole  came 
around  again,  the\  sprang  upon  it  and  bore  it  oft  by  back  alleys  ami  o\er  fences  to 
their  loft\'  stronghold.  This  clever  coiip  .set  all  Ardmore  agog  and  caused  the  daring 
perpetrators  much  secret  anxiety  after — well,  after  they  had  time  to  think  it  over.  The 
pole  still  stands,  a  \eiled  monument  to  their  prowess,  in  Barclay  tower. 

After  flirting  co\ly  with  us  for  a  maddening  period  of  some  two  cold,  rainy 
months  such  as  surpassed  anything  in  the  memory  of  the  oldest  inhabitants,  Spring 
burst  full  panoplied  upon  us.  We  were  officially  apprised  of  this  by  the  annual  un- 
dermining of  the  brick  sidewalks,  the  tra\ersing  of  which  reminds  one  of  nothing  so 
much  as  Eliza  crossing  the  ice.  The  Purit_\'  League  cleared  the  desks  for  action  and 
the  Spring  sports  were  gotten  under  way  with  a  rush  that  gladdened  the  heart.  Old 
white  trousers  were  hauled  out  and  pressed  (  ? )  into  service  and  the  characteristic 
position  became  that  of  reclining  flat  on  the  back  and  thinking  of  nothing  whatever. 

About  this  time  the  long  and  lovable  figure  of  "Honus"  Froelicher  began  to  be 
familiar  upon  the  campus  as  the  organizer  and  advance  agent  of  the  coming  drive  to 
subscribe  five  hundred  thousand  dollars  as  an  Endowment  Fund  for  the  college.  Be- 
cause he  is  a  rattling  good  fellow,  because  he  could  win  both  our  confidence  and  our 
cash,  and  because  he  has  worked  like  the  proverbial  Trojan  for  Haverford,  first,  last, 
and  always,  he  is  hereby  unofficially  elected  into  our  class.  Incidently,  instead  of  our 
class  quota  of  $1,500,  we  raised  the  illustrious  total  of  $4,590,  a  sum  which  surpa.ssed 
that  of  any  other  class  and  to  which  ( like  the  conventional  congressman  )  we  point 
with  pride. 

With  unbelievable  rapidity  the  year  drew  to  its  close.  Under  the  capable  man- 
agement of  Russ  Fitts  our  final  exercises  were  conducted  with  an  elegance  and  eclat 


Page  Seventy-four 


never  before  attained,  and  our  class  upheld  its  traditions  in  the  dance  that  crowned 
our  collefie  career.  Armed  with  the  sheepskins  clenched  ti^htl)'  in  our  fists,  we  stood 
ready  to  step  out  into  the  world. 

We  have  passed  throuijh  four  of  the  best  years  of  our  life  toj^etber.  and  no  matter 
where  the  courses  of  our  var\  ing  careers  lead  us,  we  will  never  be  able  to  forget  the 
campus  underneath  the  sprinjj;  sunlif;;ht,  the  buildings,  the  associations — everything 
that  the  name  of  Haverford  will  alwa\s  mean  to  us,  which  we  cannot  put  into  words. 
We  foresee  for  it  changes,  improvements,  surely.  Some  of  us  will  be  able  to  come 
back  to  it  often.  But  none  of  us.  no  matter  where  we  are,  will  be  able  to  sing  with- 
out the  thrill  which  speaks  of  happy  memories: 


"And  thou  O  Time,  though  strong  thou  art, 
Yet  never,  never  shalt  thou  part 
The  ties  that  ever  bind  the  heart 
Of  every  son  of   Haverford."

URS  is  truly  a  war  class:  of  our  sixty  odd  members,  all  but  a  bare  half-dozen 
have  been  either  in  the  armed  forces  of  the  United  States  or  in  some  relief 
organization. 

We  had  barely  got  our  bearings  at  Haverford  Freshman  year  when  we 
were  hustled  into  the  Emergency  Unit  to  learn  the  rudiments  of  drill,  camp- 
ing, sanitation,  and  automobile  driving  and  repairing.     Among  other  things,. 

we  campaigned  at  Cobb's  Creek,  helped  level   the  new  baseball  diamond,  and,   under 

Dr.  Babbitt's  care,  learnt  to  "produce  litters." 

The  first  to  leave  us  were  Price  and  Grigg,  in  answer  to  the  call  of  Base  H(jspital 
No.  10;  the  former  married  in  France  and  later  joined  the  American  forces  in  the 
Rhineland — his  chances  of  returning  to  Haverford  seem,  indeed,  slight.  The  latter 
was  glad  enough  to  abandon  hospital  work  to  join  a  theatrical  troupe  whose  member- 
ship included  several  other  Haverfordians,  notabl\'  Larry  Jones  and  LeClerq;  this 
compan\    toured  France,  giving  performances  at  various  concentration  camps. 

Toward  the  end  of  Sophomore  jear,  the  Friend's  Reconstruction  Unit  made  its 
appeal  for  men  among  us  and  secured  the  services  of  Wood  and  Roberts  ;  Wood  re- 
mained with  the  Unit  until  the  close  of  the  war,  his  particular  task  being  that  of  build- 
ing and  erecting  portable  houses  for  the  devastated  regions.  Roberts,  however,  was 
loaned  to  the  Red  Cross  and  did  some  valuable  work  in  charge  of  a  cantine  for  refugees 
at  Evian-Les-Bain  in  Savoy,  and,  later,  as  Red  Cross  captain  in  a  concentration  camp. 

Since  Ha\erford  stuck  to  its  Quaker  principles  and  refused  to  establish  an  S.  A. 
T.  C.  on  its  campus  in  the  fall  of  1918, — the  youngest  of  us  now  being  of  military 
age. — the  class  disbanded:  Worrell  and  Spencer  joined  the  Motor  Transport  Corp; 
Miller,  Van  Sickle,  Stubbs,  Edmunds  and  Knowlton  the  navy:  Pierce  the  na\al 
aviation ;  Fitts  secured  a  commission  in  the  army,  and  the  rest  of  us  were  enrolled  in 
army  or  navy  units  at  Princeton,  'Vale,  Harvard  or  some  other  of  the  Eastern  colleges. 
During  the  first  half  of  Juni(jr  \ear  the  class  was  represented  at  Haverford  by  a  mere 
handful. 

At  the  close  of  the  war,  drawn  back  to  Haverford  by  ties  of  friendship  and  of 
loyalty  to  our  alma  mater,  we  began  Senior  \ear  again  as  a  united  class,  our  numbers 
increased  by  the  return  of  several  members  of  '19.  '18,  and  even  '17:  Crosman  and 
Thornton  graduated  at  midyears,  while  Greer,  a  first  lieutenant  in  the  Sanitary  Corp, 
Osier,  an  aviator,  the  two  ()li\ers,  Hallet,  and  Moore  from  Ambulance  Units,  and 
Hart- home.  Brockelbank,  Earnest  and  Tatum  from  the  Reconstruction  Unit,  grad- 
uated with  us  in  June. 

To  those,  such  as  Wood,  Roberts,  Edmunds  and  Grigg,  who  still  have  a  year 
or  more  at  Ka\eiford.  we  extend  our  best  wishes  and  a  gentle  ailmonition  not  to  for- 
get their  membership  in  1920.

^  HE  Class's  histrionic  career  bejjan  in  Freshman  "i  ear  with  Shaw's  "^  ou  Nc\er 
Can  Tell."  "Chris"  Roberts  shone  as  a  blue-stockint^  authoress,  middle- 
aged  and  formidable.  Harrj'  Morriss  disported  himself  in  the  company  of 
his  twin  "Larry"  Jones, — enfants  terribles  both.  K.  Oliver,  who  the  .\ear 
before  had  been  the  Irishwuman  of  "All-Of-A-Sudden  Pef;i;\ ,"  dropped  his 
brogue  and  became  the  statuesque,  and   woidd-be  blue-,  tucking  daughter  of 

the  aforesaid   authoress.     The  play,   unfortunatel\ .  had   to  be  abandoned   immediately 

before  performance,  when  the  Kniergenc\    Unit  was  organized. 

During  Sophomore  and  Junior  \  ears  no  pla\  was  given,  but  when  it  was  re\  i\ed 
in  Senior  year  the  class  was  again  well  represented.  The  production  for  this  season 
was  "Mrs.  Bumpstead-Leigh."  The  title  role  was  taken  b\  K.  Oliver,  who  had  the 
difficult  task  of  portraying  a  \ery  complex  double-personalit\  part.  "Chris"  Roberts 
showed  his  versatility  by  giving  a  convincing  characterizaticn  of  the  thoroughly  dis- 
reputable \oung  villain.  Williams  as  a  flamboyant  tombstone  salesman.  Osier  a.  the 
handsome  lover,  and  Kearney  as  the  polished  gentleman  of  leisure,  all  lent  eclat  to  the 
production.  The  task  of  managing  the  play  fell  to  Reese,  and  the  stage-managership 
to    Kearne\. 

To  the  musical  clubs  the  class  lias  alwa\s  contributed  more  than  its  quota  of  tal- 
ent. In  Freshman  \ear  it  was  represented  b\  Williams,  Toogood,  Phelps,  King.  Hart- 
man.  Hill,  Edmunds,  Gucker,  Harris,  Cochran,  Flanders,  Earnest,  and  I).  Oliver. 
By  Sophomore  year  Phelps  Hill  and  Cochran  had  fallen  by  the  wayside,  but  the  rep- 
resentation was  kept  up  by  the  accession  of  Burritt,  Fergusson  and  Kearney.  New 
members  in  Junior  ear  were  L\cett  and  Sutton.  At  the  end  of  the  \ear  Toogood  and 
Hartman  were  elected  to  lead  the  Mandolin  and  (jlee  Clubs,  respecti\el\',  but  as  Hart- 
man  did  not  return,  the  post  was  ably  filled  by  Williams.  Ferguson  had  the  by-no- 
means-easy  task  of  piloting  the  clubs  on  their  many  wanderings,  and  of  his  labors  in 
guiding  the  flock  imharnied  through  I)e\'on  Manor  and  Atlantic  City,  who  shall  speak? 

Both  the  Mandolin  and  the  Cjlec  Clubs  were  pronounced  by  competent  critics  to 
be  superior  to  any  of  the  past.  The  Mandolin  Club  with  an  unusually  fine  \iolin 
section,  a  wlophone,  clarinets,  and  a  large  mandolin  section,  preserved  perfect  balance 
and  de\eloped  into  a  smooth  but  animated  unit.  The  Glee  Club,  fortunate  in  the  as- 
sistance of  Mr.  Carpenter,  also  rounded  into  exceptionally  good  form.  The  addition 
of  two  excellent  specialties,  the  interpretative  Dances  of  Toogood  and  Williams,  and 
the  Jazz-orchestra  of  Frank  Earnest  and  his  s>ncopated  henchmen,  left  but  one  possi- 
ble outcome — a  highly  successful  season.

CLASS  subjected  to  the  vicissitudes  of  one  \ear  of  near  war.  two  \ears  of 
war,  and  one  year  of  near  peace,  could  have  but  a  disconnected  literary  his- 
tory ;  particularl\  as  one  of  the  minor  effects  of  the  disjointed  times  was  the 
extinction  of  the  Haverfordian.  This  vehicle  for  literary  expression  con- 
tained during  the  first  two  years  some  contributions  of  varying  worth. — gen- 
tle children  of  our  fertile  brains.  The  kind  reader  will  kindly  not  make 
slighting  references  to  these  poor  little  orphans.  The  authors  were  a  weighty  Friend, 
who  wrote  poems  about  war,  an  amateur  philosopher  who  raved  gently  about  patriot- 
ism and  vers  libre,  an  artist  who  wrote  deep  short  stories  for  literar\'  effect,  and  a 
budding  genius,  whose  copy  when  it  was  fit  to  print  resembled  in  its  tone  content  a 
mixture  of   Rabelais,  de   Maupassant,  and  Schopenhauer. 

The  last  mentioned  is  the  one  author  in  the  class  who  shows  promise  of  literary 
genius, — if  by  literary  genius  we  mean  prolixity  and  an  approach  to  insanity.  He 
writes  with  an  indecent  exposure  of  soul  and  affects  that  type  of  morbid  realism  that 
leads  the  reader,  who  has  never  imagined,  much  less  experienced,  the  situations  por- 
trayed, to  exclaim:  "How  true  to  life!"  But  it  is  not  the  intention  of  this  article  in 
the  slightest  degree  to  disparage  the  literar\-  hope  of  the  class.  He  is  wedded  to  fiction 
and  has  passed  even  now  into  its  higher  forms  where  his  success  is  already  assured — in 
journalism. 

Tliere  are  some  who  imagine  that  an  editor  of  a  newspaper  is  merel\'  a  chronicler, 
an  expert  who  blue-pencils  that  which  is  false.  Such  indeed  he  may  be.  There  are 
others  whose  conception  of  an  editor  is  that  of  an  impartial  diviner  of  what  his  public 
wants;  his  whole  aim  being  to  keep  his  readers  pleased,  contented,  and  in  the  wrong, — 
comfortably  in  the  wrong  with  the  great  majority.  Such  editors  undoubtedly  exist. 
To  others  there  is  still  a  different  idea  of  the  functions  of  an  editor.  From  this  point 
of  view,  an  editor  is  an  agitator  ;  a  man  with  a  mission  or  with  many  missions.  The 
member  of  the  Class  of  T520  who  rose  to  the  position  of  Editor-in-Chief  of  the  Haver- 
for/1  Nncs-  was  of  this  last  type.  He  deliberately  sold  the  birthright  of  the  Neifs 
for  a  pot  of  message  and  attempted  to  run  that  organ  of  collegiate  happenings  in  the 
manner  of  the  A'i'iv  RcpiihUc. 

The  path  he  trod  was  stony.  ( )n  one  occasion  a  cabal  of  insidious  interests  (why 
always  insidious?)  actually  held  up  publication  in  illegal  fashion.  But  like  others  of 
his  tribe  he  worked  for  the  future;  he  endured  the  stabs  of  the  present  for  fame  or 
for  but  a  brief  mention  that  could  come  to  him  only  long  after  his  arduous  task  was 
seemingly  completed.  We  give  this  mention  now.  His  missions  were  for  the  most 
part  good:  during  his  administration  of  the  Scu's  the  spelling  was  perfect. 

There  remains  for  mention  a  h\hritl  literary  society  called  Jhr  Percolator  Cliih. 
The  literar\-  standani  of  the  club  was  iiigh.  The  filtration  and  permeation  of  ideas 
took  place  to  the  tune  of  the  actual  percolations  of  a  coffeepot. 

On  the  whole,  the  literary  attainments  of  the  Class  of  ]i)20, — with  due  consid- 
eration given  to  the  exigencies  and  irregularities  of  the  times  and  with  a  more  just 
appreciation  than,  it  is  feared,  this  account  has  shown,  were  such  as  might  be  viewed 
with  serenitv  of  mind  if  not  with  unbounded  exultation.

Our  football  history  has  been  rather  analagous  to  the  well-known  month  of 
March,  which,  as  everyone  knows,  comes  in  like  a  lion  and  i;oes  out  like  a  lamb.  That 
is  to  sa>,  we  entered  Haverford  to  the  tune  of  a  10-7  defeat  over  our  hated  rivals  and 
never  succeeded  in  repeatinfi  this  pleasing  feat  during  our  sojourn  here.  The  remark- 
able machine  which  Doc  Bennett  built  up  in  our  F"reshman  year  and  which  outplayed 
and  outgamed  their  heavier  opponents  with  the  above  result,  was  completely  broken 
up  b\  graduati(jn  and  the  ravages  of  war.  For  the  next  three  years  the  appalling  lack 
of  material  precluded  all  possibility  of  ani,  thing  even  approaching  a  winning  combina- 
tion, and  inasmuch  as  we  have  always  been  troubled  with  scruples  on  this  point,  we 
could  not  go  out  and  purchase  the  requisite  talent.  As  n  result  we  labored  somewhat 
at  a  liisadvantage — to  put  it  mildly. 

Our  greatest  potential  star  was  Hob  Hurritt,  who  was  simplx  biirning  up  the  grid- 
iron grass  Freshman  \ear  until  he  threw  his  knee  out  so  badl\  that  he  has  never  been 
able  to  play  football  again.  Toogie  held  down  a  job  as  the  brawny  pivot  man  (  138 
lbs. )  Sophomore  year,  but  was  spared  the  pleasure  of  meeting  the  mighty  Fitz  of 
Swarthmore  ( 209  lbs. )  by  a  broken  leg.  As  the  college  was  away  at  war  Junior  year, 
there  was  no  football,  but  the  return  of  Marne>  Crosman  Senior  year  furnished  a  great 
impetus  in  the  reestablishment  of  the  game. 

For  the  first  time  we  now  see  Pierce,  the  submarine  guard,  and  Kearney,  the 
Human  Meteor,  pla\  ing  football — and  on  the  '\'arsit\ .  Toogie  disported  at  guard, 
Doug  Knowlton  at  end,  and  of  Course  Marne\  ran  the  team.  The  warriors,  though 
highly  intelligent,  were  markedly  inferior  to  the  Redbellies  in  weight  and  muscular 
development,  with  the  result  that  we  once  more  went  down  to  a  bloody  but  glorious 
defeat. 

However,  with  Mac  the  captain  for  next  \ear  and  a  large  and  promising  bunch 
of  young  ters  coming  up  from  below,  we  predict  that  there  be  another  tale  to  tell  in 
the  future.

^HE  thiril  afternoon  of  our  Freshman  year  saw  the  troops  of  the  faithful  first 
gather  on  '88  and  Merion  fields.  A  generous  proportion  of  the  knees  of  the 
Class  of  1920  were  there  exposed  to  the  breezes  by  impromptu  soccer  uni- 
forms. There  were  forty  Rhinies  out  that  day  following  the  soaring  foot- 
hall,  many  for  the  first  time.  After  two  weeks  the  strenuous  e.xercise  had 
weeded  out  all  but  the  most  athletic  or  the  most  perseverent.  The  dust  had 
cleared,  and  we  now  saw  for  the  first  time  what  a  wonderful  contribution  we  had 
made  to  the  first  ele\en  in  the  person  of  Winks  Thorpe.  His  leisurely  but  ne\'er  un- 
successful methotls  drew  smiles  and  cheers  from  the  sideline  rooters,  and  many  a  "That's 
th'  idea  "  from  old  George  \  oung.  Winks  got  his  numerals  Freshman  year  and  wa,s 
the  only  member  of  the  class  to  get  on  the  first  team.  Ted  Smith  and  Scoop  Collins 
were  regulars  on  the  second,  however,  and  helped  1^20  win  second  honors  in  the  inter- 
class  series. 

In  our  second  year  no  other  of  our  class-mates  secured  places  on  the  first  team, 
but  Winks  Thorpe  upheld  our  name  manfidly.  He  was  granted  his  letter  and  was 
picked  for  the  All-Collegiate  team  along  with  Pete  Shipley  and  Phil  Corson.  We 
had  expected  great  things  of  Ted  Smith,  but  the  war  called  him  away  and  left  them 
unfulfilled.  Several  more  of  our  members  put  in  an  occasional  appearance  on  '88 
field,  however,  and  we  began  to  count  in  the  soccer  world. 

No  intercollegiate  series  was  held  in  our  Junior  year,  but  Manager  Scup  arranged 
games  with  several  of  the  cricket  club  teams,  and  managed  to  piece  out  a  fairly  good 
season.  Ihorpe  had  unfortunately  "graduated"  rather  suddenly,  s(j  the  work  of  up- 
holding our  class  dignity  fell  to  meaner  feet.  Collins  was  a  regular,  while  Leuba  and 
Hoag  played  for  the  college  whenever  they  coidd  break  away  from  the  Princeton  S.  A. 
T.  C.  George  \'oung  and  Manager  Collins  decided  to  dispense  with  an  obtrusive 
rule  about  the  awarding  of  "H"s  only  for  work  in  intercollegiate  matches  and  granted 
the  coveted  letter  to  one  member  of  our  class,  Collins. 

Our  last  year  was  our  palm\  one  in  the  soccer  field.  Osier  joined  us  just  in  time 
to  become  captain.  Hill  Moore,  Leuba,  and  Hallett  all  won  "H's"  and  the  second 
team  was  liberally  peppered  with  sons  of  1920.  Though  we  did  not  contribute  a  very 
great  number  of  men  to  the  soccer  teams  during  our  four  \ears;  we  are,  nevertheless 
entitled  to  some  pride,  for  these  few  included  some  of  the  best  soccer  men  Haverford 
has  turned  out  in  recent  years.  Thorpe  and  Osier,  both  members  of  the  All-American 
team,  will  not  soon  be  forgotten  among  followers  of  the  good  old  sport.

HE  Class  has  never  been  f;\  mnasticall\  inclined,  at  least  not  violently  so.  Ex- 
actly how  much  the  required  courses  of  Freshman  and  Sophomore  year  con- 
tributed to  this  state  of  affairs  it  wouhl  be  difficult  to  say,  but  at  an\  rate, 
the  class's  representation  on  the  (lyni  Team,  thouj;h  scant)  in  quantit\ ,  has 
left  little  to  be  desired  as  to  quality  of  performance.  The  stand-b\s  from 
Freshman    \ear   on    ha\e   been    Knowlton    and    Pierce.      "Doug"    is  a  clever 

tumbler,  and   has  done  valuable  work  on   more  than  one  occasion.      Pierce's  specialt\ 

has   always   been   the   rings. 

The  season  (jf  Senior  \ear  passed  oft  creditabl\  under  Knowlt(jn's  captaincv.  Tat- 
um's  return  to  college  brought  the  team  another  adept  on  the  horse,  while  his  tragi- 
comic manner  has  been  observed  visibly  to  impress  more  than  one  judge,  and  who  shall 
sa>'  h(jw  man\  fair  onlookers?  The  team  ran  against  some  stift  opposition,  and  hav- 
ing clowned  ^  ale,  lust  out  to  Princeton,  Pemi,  and  the  unbeaten  Annapolis  squad.  At 
the  end  of  the  season  came  the  Inter-C(jllegiate  Meet  at  Haverford.  Here  Long's 
consistently  good  work  won  the  second  place  in  the  All-Round  Championship,  which, 
together  with  Arrow  smith's  success  on  the  horse  enabled  the  college  to  place  creditably.

ASKETBALL  as  a  major  sport  is  the  product  of  the  war.  The  return  of 
the  men  in  the  service  saw  such  a  uniform  demand  for  this  form  of  sport 
that  the  faculty  thoufjht  it  would  be  best  to  yield  to  their  demands.  Up  to 
this  time  there  had  been  class  teams,  but  1Q20  had  few  experienced  basketball 
players  outside  of  Bob  Burritt  and  the  results  were  not  always  productive  of 
rejoicing.  Vet  S()phom(jre  year  we  managed  b\-  the  aid  of  "Shaver"  Spencer 
to  beat  the  Freshmen  in  both  games.  The  other  class  games  have  been  spoken  of  in 
former  class  books,  so  we  will  not  take  time  to  mention  them  here. 

In  Junior  year,  however,  basketball  appeared  in  an  entirely  new  light.  Corson 
was  elected  captain  of  the  varsity  and  Graves  manager,  and  a  schedule  was  hastily 
arranged.  Bob  Burritt  was  just  recovering  from  a  bad  knee  and  had  to  go  carefully 
at  first,  but  b\  the  end  of  the  year  was  in  shape  to  take  a  position  in  the  line  up.  For 
an  opening  attempt  the  season  of  1919  was  highly  successful,  the  team  was  rather  light, 
but  fast,  and  had  a  record  of  four  victories  out  of  the  seven  games  scheduled.  The 
season  came  to  an  end  with  the  Ursinus  contest,  which  was  lost  due  to  the  last  min- 
ute injuries  which  suddenly  befell  the  team.  The  captaincy  was  given  to  Burritt. 
while  Tom  Kearney  was  entrusted  with  the  making  out  of  the  schedule. 

The  1920  season  opened  with  a  defeat  at  the  hands  of  Muhlenberg,  whom  we 
easily  conquered,  however,  in  the  return  game  later  in  the  winter.  Then,  however, 
the  team  ran  into  a  fog  of  hard  luck.  First  Matzke,  the  star  forward,  got  under  the 
ban  of  probation,  and  at  the  next  game  Bob  Burritt  injured  his  knee  and  was  out  for 
the  season.  Thus  green  men  had  to  be  rushed  in  and  the  team  practicalh  made  over 
in  the  middle  of  the  season.  The  first  Swarthmore  game  was  rapidly  approaching, 
so  "Lardy"  Davis  was  procured  to  help  Doc  Bennett  in  shaping  the  team  in  its  big 
game.  The  new  bunch  began  working  together  and  though  they  suffered  reverses  at 
the  hands  of  Stevens  and  Franklin  and  Marshall  (the  latter  in  an  extra  period),  things 
looked  fairly  bright  for  the  Swarthmore  contest. 

The  big  game  had  hardly  started  when  the  Garnet  sunk  a  field  goal.  However, 
this  served  only  to  put  more  fight  in  the  Scarlet  and  Black,  who  came  back  and  were 

shorth     leading    5-4.     The    game  see-sawed   back   and    forth   for   the  first  half  with 
Swarthmore  leading  12-8  at  the  intermission. 

Haverford.  however,  staged  a  wonderful  rally  at  the  beginning  of  the  second  half 
and  scored  seven  straight  points  while  the  Garnet  quintet  was  held  scoreless.  At  this 
stage  of  the  game  Fisher  was  put  out  on  four  personal  fouls  and  the  team  was  for  the 
minute  discouraged,  but  quickl\  came  back  to  the  old  fighting  spirit  and  with  two  min- 
utes to  pla\   the  score  stood  20-18  in  favor  of  Swarthmore. 

At  this  point  the\  started  to  freeze  the  ball  anil  in  their  excitement  Haverford 
broke  up  its  splendid  defense  with  the  residt  that  Swarthmore  scored  two  more  field 
goals  before  the  final  whistle. 

In  the  final  awards  Burritt  receiveil  his  letter  and  Williams  was  given  his  numer- 
als.

RICKET.   like  so  many  other  activities,  has  had   its  deciiled   ups  and   downs 

during  the  class's  four  \ears  at  collefje.      In   Freshman  \ear  it  was  down,  in 

r     fact   down   so  low    as  to  be  altofiether  extinguished.     This  was  through   no 

lack  of  good  material  in  the  college,  but  because  that  Spring  which  brought 

the  war  onto  y^merica  brought  the  Emergency   Unit  onto  Haverford.     That 

strange,  amorphous  Unit!      It  entered  in  full  panoply  of  stretchers,  shovels, 

and  old   flivvers    and  all  else  bowed  before  it.      Cricket,  among  other  things,  did   not 

exist. 

The  next  year  saw  a  bra\e  attempt  to  resuscitate  it,  but  conditions  were  unfavor- 
able and  the  season  was  not  a  great  success.  The  team  was  captained  b\  Tomlinson, 
'18,  the  class  being  represented  on  it  by  Toogood,  Williams,  and  Collins. 

In  Junior  \car,  however,  as  the  college  filled  up  again,  and  things  became  more 
normal,  there  was  a  great  coine-back.  "Ed"  Porter  and  "Marney"  Crosman,  both 
ex-']8.  arrived  from  abroad  in  time  to  contribute  largely  to  the  season's  success,  the 
former  being  elected  captain.  Toogood.  Kearne\ .  and  Rogers  were  regulars,  and 
Silver  and  Collins  substitutes.  The  Canadian  trip,  which  followed  immediately  after 
the  close  of  c(jl!ege,  brought  the  team  much  valuable  experience. 

Senior  \ear  has  seen  a  strong  well-balanced  team.  "Marney"  having  completed 
his  course  at  Mid-\  ears,  was  unable  to  take  part,  and  his  loss  was  much  felt.  "Uoug" 
Oliver,  ex-'lQ,  who  returned  from  over-seas  in  the  early  part  of  the  year  was  elected 
captain,  and  by  his  steady  bowling  has  proved  a  valuable  addition  tcj  the  team.  The 
class  was  again  well  represented  b\'  its  old  stand-bys.

HE  Class  of   1920  has  always  excelled  in  spring  sports.     Track  is  no  excep- 
tion to  this  rule.     Even  way  hack  in  the  dark  ages  of  Freshman  \ear,  though 
we  lost  the   Rhinie-Soph  meet,  we  gave  I'rack  Coach   Keogh  cause  for  joy. 
Grigg,  captain  of  the  class  team,  was  making  good  time  in  both  the  quarter 
and  the  one  mile  w  hen  he  left  to  join  Hase  Hospital  10.     Jim  Pierce,  accord- 
to  custom,  did  good  work  as  a  slinger.  this  time  of  shot  and  hammer.     Fran 
Silver  wasn't   allowed    to   run,   but   he   showed    the   Sophs   how  jumping  ought   to   be 
done.     Good  old  J.  S.  was  on  deck  as  usual,  but  as  yet  gave  no  indication  of  his  mar- 
velous hurdling  ability. 

In  Sophomore  year  we  beat  the  Rhinies,  and  later  won  the  inter-class  champion- 
ship— thanks  to  Johnnie's  timel\  second  in  the  hurdles,  Geckeler  starred  in  the  quar- 
ter, winning  his  letter  easil\.  Knowlton  started  his  long  series  of  firsts  as  a  pole- 
vaulter,  and  he,  too,  appeared  behind  an  "H"  before  summer  came.  Class  Captain 
Fran  Silver  had  an  operation,  so  the  poor  lad  was  only  able  to  win  the  half  mile,  the 
high  jump,  and  the  broad  jump  in  the  inter-class  meet.  Jack  Keogh  failed  to  get 
JininiN'  Habbitt's  permission  for  Fran  to  run  for  the  college.  Tommie  Morris  and 
galloping  Dick  Wood  in  the  one-half  and  the  one  mile  turned  points  for  Haverford. 
Dieses  Hastings  captured  a  hard-won  first  in  the  two  mile  against  Muhlenberg  in 
something  less  than  a  quarter  of  an  hour.  Jim  Pierce  and  Harry  Hartman  hove 
the  shot  like  true  Ec-students. 

In  Junior  \ear  Johnnie  Williams,  whose  retiring  nature  had  hitherto  kept  him  in 
the  background  in  most  of  his  races,  began  to  show  real  hurdling  ability.  When  he 
didn't  trip  on  the  fatal  seventh  hurdle,  the  crowd  heaved  a  high  of  relief  and  marked 
up  a  second  or  third  for  the  college.  Jim  Pierce  managed  to  scale  the  discus  for  the 
college  record,  winning  numerous  firsts  on  the  side.  Fran  Silver  also  set  a  record  in 
the  javelin  throw  and  got  a  cup  like  Jim's  to  show  for  it.  Fran  usuall\  captureil  first 
place  in  the  quarter  mile  also.  These  two  and  Doug  Knowlton  all  won  letters.  The 
track  team  consisted  largely,  however,  of  Captain  Al  Hisey.  He  won  his  fifteen  or 
t\\ent\  points  a  meet  as  regularly  as  clockwork.  Both  hurdles,  both  jumps,  the  100 
and  the  220  all  contributed  to  his  individual  score. 

We  were  all  congratulating  oursehes  on  having  as  captain  in  our  Senior  year 
one  of  the  best  track  men  who  ever  ran  for  Haverford,  but  the  fates  willed  that  Al 
should  leave  before  the  season  came.  Fran  Silver  was  chosen  to  succeed  him  as  cap- 
tain. With  the  support  of  the  old  regulars  plus  Dick  Wood  in  the  mile.  Hastings  in 
the  two  mile,  and  Tommie  Morris  in  the  half,  1*^^20  acquitted  itself  nobly  in  her 
last  track  season.

ASKliALL  becaim'  a  major  and  recof^nized  sport  durlnfi  <iur  first  year  at 
coilejie,  and  everything  was  well  arranged,  including  a  Southern  trip.  This 
trip  went  off  as  scheduled  with  "Jerry"  Cochran,  who  was  our  first  great 
baseball  light,  in  attendance.  However,  at  this  crucial  moment  the  war 
intervened,  and  all   bets  were  off. 

Nevertheless  baseball  was  re\ived  in  uur  Sopli(jniore  year  under  the  lead- 
ership of  Neil  Gilmore.  Here  for  the  first  time  Bob  Burritt,  Tom  Kearney  and 
Winks  Thorpe  showed  their  true  abilit\.  Burritt  held  down  second,  Kearney  did  the 
pitching,  while  Thorpe  covered  first.  Among  them  they  did  much  toward  making 
the  season  a  success. 

The  third  year  of  baseball  history  was  marked  by  the  election  of  Burritt  to  captain 
the  team.  The  armistice  brought  Buzby  back  to  college  and  prospects  were  bright, 
except  for  the  fact  that  Thorpe's  leaving  college  had  made  a  big  hole  in  the  infield. 
However,  Jimmy  Pierce  stepped  into  Wink's  shoes  and  before  he  had  been  out  long, 
we  found  that  Pierce  was  also  a  great  addition  to  the  pitching  staff.  But  sore  arms 
and  bad  weather  banished  all  hopes  of  a  successful  season.  We  played  Swarthmore 
and  were  defeated  11  to  1 .  even  though  Pierce  held  the  Garnet  helpless  throughout 
the  last  four  innings.  But  we  finished  the  season  in  a  blaze  of  glory,  beating  Franklin 
and  Marshall  IS  to  8,  Al  Hisey  putting  the  game  on  ice  when,  with  the  bases  full,  he 
hit  a  long  siitt/U  to  right,  cleaning  the  bags  and  when  the  smoke  cleared  Al  was 
standing  calmly  on  third. 

Bob  Burritt  was  re-elected  to  lead  the  team  through  our  Senior  \ear.  The  team 
was  rather  hard  hit  by  the  departure  of  Hisey  and  Crosman,  but  with  Pierce  and 
Kearney  pitching,  the\  began  to  work  like  a  machine  and  to  hit.  Under  the  circum- 
stances there  coidd  be  but  one  resllt — a  winnintr  ball   club.

Nineteen  twenty  has  been  so  much  occupied  with  the  major  spring  sports,  that 
tennis  has  been  sadly  neglected.  Walt  Shipley,  Johnny  Haynes,  and  Bob  Miller  had 
to  struggle  through  their  season  with  no  assistant  from  the  hitherto  omnipresent 
Rhinie  class.  Even  Sophomore  year  failed  to  find  any  \outhful  McLaughlins  among 
our  classmates,  though  Kanisler  and  Leuba  indulged  in  daily  games  of  ping-pong. 
Tennis  was  so  weak  during  Junior  year  that  we  thought  proper  to  come  to  its  aid, 
and  added  Captain  Toogood  and  Bob  Burritt  to  the  team.  The  unlooked  for  result 
of  this  timely  assistance  was  that  the  team  didn't  win  a  single  match  the  whole  season. 
Toogood  usually  managed  to  beat  his  opponent,  while  he  and  Weatherby  made  a 
strong  doubles  combination.  In  the  Swarthmore  match  both  Toogood  and  Bob  Bur- 
ritt, who  took  Henderson's  place,  succeeded  in  winning  their  sets,  but  tlie  team  as  a 
whole  went  down  to  a  decisive,  if  hard-won,  victory 

In  our  Senior  year  Burritt  was  too  much  occupied  in  piloting  the  baseball  team 
to  waste  his  time  in  handling  a  racquet,  and  Toogood  was  the  oni\  member  of  the 
class  of  ]Q20  who  represented  his  class  on  the  courts.

HAROLD  WALTON  BRICCHT. 
"Harold"  "Brecht" 

"S/iy.   Tdmiiiy.  luivc  yon  yutttii  ymir  rlurk  fnnii  the  Inquirer:'" 

This  biuldinji  \()unL,'  t;fnius  first  came  into  the  limelight  when  he  gave  Ned  some 
advice  on  how  to  conduct  the  Freshman  English  course.  It  did  not,  of  course,  meet 
with  Ned's  approxal,  so  Ned  naturally  gave  the  decision  at  the  end  of  six  rounds 
to  Ned. 

From  then  on  Harold's  rise  to  fame  was  meteoric.  He  had  many  obstacles  to 
overcome,  however,  the  largest  of  which  was,  without  argument.  Babbitt's  gym.  Our 
hero  fought  this  demon  like  a  true  Knight,  and  finally  conquered.  How  this  was 
accomplished,  we  cannot  sa\ ,  a?  onl\-  a  select  few  are  acquainted  with  the  facts,  but 
we  feel  sure  that  full  details  can  be  procured  by  aincjne  for  a  reasonable  consideration. 

These  "reasonable  considerations'"  ha\e  also  been  a  large  factor  in  Harold's  career. 
He  has  been  known  to  do  an\  thing  for  a  dollar  but  murder  (that  costs  two).  He 
put  the  newspaper  business  on  a  true  financial  basis  and  under  the  firm  of  Brecht  and 
Morris.  Inc.  (Incomparable)  the  slogan  of  the  Xorlh  .hiwrivrin  "It's  all  here  and 
some  of  it's  true"  reached  its  greatest  height. 

But  a  true  genius  must  have  a  source  of  inspiration,  and  Harold's  source  was 
Kamsler.  He  came  under  .Milton's  tutelage  at  the  beginning  of  Junior  \ear.  A 
great  change  was  the  immediate  residt.  for  by  the  end  of  the  year  Harold  was  able 
to  chin  himself  twelve  times. 

But  HaroKl  is  a  radical  and  believes  in  nothing  conventional.  His  ambition  (yes, 
he  has  one  )  is  a  place  t(j  sleep  and  enough  to  eat  and  smoke,  and  an  opportunit\  to 
do  what  he  damn'  pleases.  And  we  predict  that  if  this  is  granted  him,  Galsworthy, 
Shaw,  and  the  like  had  better  look  to  their  laurels.

Of  Brock's  impact  on  his  ()rii,'inal  class  cit  I'll*^  ue  know  onl\  b>  licarsav,  but,  to 
judge  by  our  own  experience,  it  must  have  been  terrific.  We  must  "remember,  of 
course,  that  before  coming  to  us  his  lingual  attainments  and  his  repertoire  had  been 
increased  b\^  a  _\  ear's  service  in  France  with  the  Reconstruction  Unit,  but  when  all 
allowances  have  been  made,  the  conclusion  is  unescapable  that  Brock's  line  is  an  a  priori, 
ah  origine  gift  to  him  from  the  Fairies.  Such  lines  are  born  with  us,  rarely  acquired ! 
If  an.None  should  desire  further  light  on  this  problem  we  should  suggest  attendance 
at  a  session  of  the  Social  Science  Chdi.  o\er  which  Brock  presides  with  great  dignit.v — 
or  a  place  near  him  at  Monda\  lunch  would  do  as  well.  Whatever  the  fubject  under 
difcussion,  we  can  guarantee  that  the  listener  would  come  away,  perhaps  somewhat 
mystified,  but  certainly  much  impresseil  h\  a  masterl\  presentation  of  facts  and  theories 
hitherto  undreamed  of  b\-  even  experts  in  the  tield.  Brock,  we  believe,  fa\iirs  the  use 
of  a  pitch-fork  over  a  shovel. 

We  ha\e  hinted  above  at  his  leadership  in  the  Social  Science  Club.  Brock  was 
also  one  of  the  intellectual  high-lights  of  the  class,  carrying  off  a  Corporation  Scholar- 
ship in  his  Senior  Wdv.  Among  his  other  interests  ha\e  been  Soccer,  the  Cercle 
Frani;ais,  and,  as  the  Spirit  moved,  Bryn   Mawr. 

We  prophes\  for  liini  resounding  succis  in  the  busy  marts  of  trade.  His  summer 
adventures  have  alreadv  given  indications  of  a  bump  of  salesmans!i:p.  and  h  s  glib

"Not    here — this    is    Wednesday    night. 
Get  the  message." 

"It's    his    family — they    wanta    know    if 
they  can  expect  him  home  for  Christmas." 

"Not  if  it  comes  on  W^ednesday!" 

This  was  not  always  the  case,  however. 
1  here  were  times  when  Boh  used  to  stay 
around  college  and  do  things.  But  Senior 
'®  year  saw  a  great  change.  The  trouble  is 
that  no  one  can  really  find  out  the  facts  of 
the  case,  because  Bob  is  not  around  college 
enough  to  tell  us,  and  even  if  he  did  have 
time,  he  wouldn't  tell  us. 

.Burkett  however  does  not  devote  all  his  time  to  women,  but  ( whenever  he  is  not 
studying)  he  finds  a  little  time  to  meddle  in  athletics.  Bob  is  really,  seriously  now, 
an  all-around  athlete.  Besides  having  been  a  member  of  the  football,  basketball  and 
baseball  teams,  he  was  runner  up  in  the  tennis  tournament,  and  is  a  fair  hand  at 
slinging  the  bull   (  the  evidence  of  this  fact  is  that  he  got  a  B  in  Soc.  Work. ) 

But  to  get  Bob  in  his  most  characteristic  pose  \()u  nuist  see  him  putting  on  the 
finishing  touches  as  he  is  about  to  leave  for  a  date.  Just  when  you  think  he  is 
dressed  he  begins.  He  has  done  it  so  long  that  now  he  runs  on  schedule — eleven  min- 
utes to  brush  clothes,  nine  minutes  to  brush  and  rebrush  hair,  six  minutes  to  brush  hat, 
and  usually  three  minutes  to  shine  his  shoes.  To  really  appreciate  this  you  have  to 
see  it. 

So  Bob  will  go  into  business,  neat  and  accurate  in  the  details,  and  tackling  the  big 
problems  as  though  they  were  his  opponents  on  the  gridiron,  the  diamond,  or  the 
basketball  floor  (all  of  which  he  excelled  in)  and  solving  them  as  he  solved. Dr.  Mul-

There  can  be  no  doubt  that  Scup  was  devoted  to  the  three  graces.  Faith,  Hope, 
and  Charity,  all  throughout  his  college  course.  He  had  faith  in  the  law  of  demand 
and  supply  of  furniture,  he  had  hope  in  his  ultimate  abilit\'  to  become  a  soccer  star, 
and  he  showed  immense  charity  in  once  loaning  a  sum  (jf  mone\  to  the  Corporation. 
But  contrary  to  the  usual  order  of  things,  the  greatest  of  these  in  Scup's  estimation 
was  faith.  He  acquired  the  furniture  at  the  end  of  his  Sophomore  year,  and  he  feels 
that  he  is  justified  in  suing  the  U.  S.  for  dangers  and  losses  resulting  from  the  war 
and  from  the  fact  that  several  nefarious  students  sold  him  Har\e\    Klock's  furniture. 

Houe\er  it  was  a  great  lesson  to  gooil  old  Ben  and  one  that  he  will  be  able  to 
profit  by  when  he  is  "down  on  the  farm." 

As  for  his  social  side  Scup  has  tamed  down  since  his  early  years.  VV^ell  do  we 
remember  those  "two  vast  and  trunkless  legs  of  stone  not  "standing  in  the  desert" 
but  wearing  a  path  to  and  from  the  all  too  handy  refrigerator  along  with  his  great 
companion  in  mastication,  "Shepp." 

But  those  days  are  past.  Scup  now  centers  his  time  upon  the  engineering  lab  and 
the  running  the  farm  up  in  Purchase,  N.  '^'.  Social  life  no  longer  holds  its  fascination 
for  him,  and  even  smoking  has  taken  hold  of  this  sterling,  stolid  Quaker.  For  under 
the  skin  (and  it  mav  be  a  little  thick  I  Scup  is  a  good  fellow,  anil  though  many  are 
inclined  to  lioubt  it.  he  will  lend  wni  money  when  you  are  hard  up.

JOHN  MARSHAL  CROSMAN. 

"Marney"  "Hogan" 

"You're  a  great   one." 

Let  us  pause  here,  ladies  and  gentlemen, 
and  gaze  upon  the  greatest  athlete  that  ever 
wore  an  "H."  He  excels  in  football, 
cricket,  gym.  baseball,  soccer,  tennis,  squash, 
track  and  bridge,  and  his  rending  (  pardon, 
rendition)  of  "Old  Black  Joe"  upon  the 
mandolin  is  excruciating  beyond  all  belief. 
In  fact  to  anyone  bringing  to  the  notice  of 
the  management  evidence  that  some  game 
e.xists  which  Marney  does  not  play  well 
there  will  be  presented  absolutely  free  of 
charge  one  pair  of  beautifully  embroidered 
fur-lined  suspenders. 


Unlike  most  great  athletes,  Marney  is  endowed  with  even  more  than  his  full  share 
of  brains.  He  doesn't  waste  any  words,  but  when  he  talks  he  says  something.  Also, 
unlike  a  great  many  athletes,  Marney  belongs  to  one  of  our  very  front  families  and 
figures  frequently  in  Nancy  Wynne's  nightly  chatter. 

We  inherited  Hogan  from  '18  along  with  Al  Hisey,  for  all  of  which  we  are  truly 
thankful.  The  college  improved  about  90  per  cent  on  the  spot.  We  think  the  other 
10  per  cent  could  have  been  added  had  he  retained  the  beautiful  yellow  mustache 
behind  which  he  sought  peace  and  seclusion  in  France.  Oh  yes,  Marney  was  another 
of  our  imposing  array  of  Artillery  Lieuts.,  his  particular  job  being  to  go  up  in  a 
sausage  baloon  and  spy  out  the  land,  the  while  furnishing  innocent  diversion  for  the 
Hun  Archies  and  airmen. 

Marney  is  a  connoisseur  of  all  that  is  best  in  life.  He  loves  good  books,  good 
society,  good  clothes,  good  liquor,  and  one  very  good  girl  in  particular.  No  one  who 
has  seen  him  only  in  his  usual  sedate  and  dignified  mood  would  suspect  that  he  can 
be,  and  frequently  is,  as  funny  and  lovably  playful  as  a  kitten.  He  and  "Tony" 
Carey  are  the  two  most  engaging  rough-housers  that  ever  lived. 

Needless  to  say,  Marney's  graduation  in  February  made  a  terrible  hole  in  the 
college  and  was  sincerely  lamented  by  all.  Not  onl\  did  we  lose  a  truly  remarkable 
and  tireless  worker,  but  a  friend  of  that  sterling  character  that  will  last  through  the 
years  to  come.

"Hung  Sorroic!'' 

Every  age  has  had  its  prophets,  so  perhaps  the  twentieth  century  is  not  exempt, 
and  if  so.  certainly  none  can  lay  hetter  claim  to  that  august  title  than  the  Jazz  Orches- 
tra. Haverford,  heing  ministered  to  on  Thurs(la\s  b>  Rufus  and  Co..  turns  in  lighter 
moments  to  these  artists  of  the  saxaphone  and  drum,  and  their  High  Priest  is  Earnest. 
Our  own  "Jazzorchestra"  has  headquarters  at  College,  but  its  hunting-ground  is  the 
length  and  breadth  of  the  Main  Line — indeed  every  social  function  of  an\  importance 
is  graced  by  its  presence.  Earnest  is  its  leader,  its  genius,  its  spirit  incarnate.  His 
musical  career  dates  back  to  his  entrance  to  College,  and  who  will  forget  his  famous 
duets  with  McConnell,  the  two  "Banjokesters"?  He  has  always  been  a  pillar  of 
the  Mandolin  Club,  and  in  Senior  year  took  part  in  that  most  special  of  specialties, 
"The  Persian    Problem". 

We  shall  always  think  of  him  in  terms  of  syncopated  melody,  and  never  picture 
him  but  with  a  jovial  smile.  In  third  floor  Center,  and  at  the  corner  table  in  the 
dining  room,  in  fact  ever\  where  and  alwa\s  he  has  been  a  source  of  merriment. 

jAmong  his  other  activities  ha\e  been  the  Managership  of  Football,  and  the  Under- 
graduate Treasurership  of  the  Cap  and  Bells.  To  all  these  he  has  brought  real  or- 
ganizmg  ability  and  business  acumen.  He  will  go  through  life  making  the  rough 
places  smooth,  pouring  oil  on  troubled  waters,  and  making  two  pennies  grow  where

LUCIUS  WILLIAMS   ELDER 
"Elder" 

" M-in-iii. " 

Elder  is  one  of  the  few  members  of  our  class  wlio  has  a  decided  bent  for  one  field 
of  learning.  Most  of  us  have  spent  our  four  college  \easr  browsing  about  in  most 
of  the  courses  of  stud\'  ofiered  at  Haverford  without  any  particular  violent  likes  or 
dislikes;  not  so  with  Elder,  however.  With  a  very  true  instinct  he  scented  out 
chemistry  as  the  proper  field  for  his  life  work.  Thoroughh  despising  philosophy , 
history,  economics  or  an\  other  of  the  philosophical  sciences  and  all  the  languages, 
including  English,  he  concentrated  on  mathematics,  physics  and  above  all,  on  his 
belo\eil  chemistr\ ,  in  which.  Senior  \ear.  he  not  only  followed  courses,  but  was  also 
an  instructor. 

It  has  been  a  matter  of  no  small  speculation  to  the  rest  of  us  as  to  whether  or 
not  Lucius  is  at  all  interested  in  the  deadlier  sex.  The  general  concensus  of  opinion

"The  Picture  of  Tailored  v'ice' 
"Nope,  got  to  study." 


Russ  first  flashed  upon  our  horizon  as  the  natt\'  stranger  from  "Kan'  City'.  His 
refreshing  appearance,  charming  ways,  and  superhuman  cleverness  in  avoiding  the  at- 
tentions of  the  Sophomore  Hazing  Committee  b\  rooming  with  his  brother  Dwight, 
gained  him  the  honor  of  being  our  first  president  without  a  battle. 

As  a  living  embodiment  of  the  heaven-sent  gift  of  concentration,  Russ  has  cut  his 
calm,  clean-swept  path  through  four  college  years.  It  won  him  a  high  standing,  a 
commission  in  the  Fiel(  ArtillerN ,  and  the  marveling  admiration  of  his  fellows.  His 
is  a  beautiful  example  of  the  balanced  life — he  studies  hard,  he  exercises  hard,  and 
when  he  plays — Oh,  Lawd,  he  plays  hard  too.  Russ  breaks  loose  at  times  and  indulges 
in  periods  of  well-deserved  recreation  than  which  there  is  nothing  than  whicher. 

Nothing  has  ever  been  known  to  ruffle  Russ  but  the  non-arrival  of  his  daih'  Special 
Delivery  from  his  lady-love — and  the  positively  cataclysmic  upheavel  which  took  place 
when  some  low  miscreant  stole  his  liquor.  Even  on  that  occasion  he  made  little  noise, 
but  he  was  certainl\   incensed  to  a  degree.     In  fact  his  rage  knew  no  bounds. 

Seriously,  Russ  has  been  an  anchor  that  has  kept  the  fast-fl>  ing  whirlygig  of  Kinsey 
steady  upon  its  axis.  His  excellent  drag  with  the  Office  has  saved  many  a  damned 
soul.  If  he  runs  the  wholesale  drygoods  business  as  well  as  he  functioned  as  President 
of  the  A.  A.  and  of  the  Athletic  Cabinet,  he  will  shortly  be  known  as  the  Drygoods 
King.     But  he  will  be  a  success,  whatever  he  does.

"Bob" 
"Coriip(2ny    Halt." 

Nineteen  twenty  includes  representatives  of  many  political  points  of  view:  In  the 
left  win^  we  have  the  radicals  Leuba  and  Van  Sickle ;  in  center — the  exact  center — 
we  have  Osier;  and  in  the  right,  by  his  own  admission,  stands  Bob  (jreer.  Greer  is 
so  ardent  a  republican  that  the  Dean  felt  sufKciently  sure  of  him  to  excuse  several  of 
his  cuts  that  he  might  go  home  and  vote  with  the  party.  When  the  judge  sought 
relaxation  by  frightening  defenceless  rabbits  with  the  famous  cross-eyed  gun,  he  inci- 
dentally gave  pleasure  not  only  to  himself  and  the  rabbits,  but  also  to  his  admiring 
friends.  The  well-known  gun  was  one  of  peculiar  habits;  whenever  Bob  was  sure  he 
had  it  pointed  right  it  refused  to  go  off. 

Bob  is  an  indefatiguable  story-teller;  not  that  his  fund  is  very  large,  but  that  his 
stories  exhibit  a  tendency  to  recur,  despite  Kearney's  famous  slogan,  "'V'ou  told  it 
better  the  first  time."  For  many  weeks  we  thought  he  never  laughed  but  we  finally 
made  the  great  discovery  that  certain  sounds  emitted  by  him  at  frequent  intervals, 
and  formerly  thought  by  the  best  authorities  to  be  indications  of  excruciating  pain, 
were  signs  of  the  intensest  delight. 

Greer  is  an  excellent  judge — of  women,  itinerant  in  habit.  We  shall  always 
remember  the  military  precision  with  which  he  hied  him  toward  Bryn  Mawr  and 
wonderful  strategy  by  which  he  avoided  being  discovered  there  by  the  girl  he  called 
on  the  night  before.  Greer  Hopes  to  practice  law  in  Johnstown,  unless  dragged  to 
Salt  Lake  City  by  his  Mormonistic  tendencies.  His  neatness  and  method  are  sure 
to  send  him  to  the  fore  in  his  profession  as  well  in  Johnstown  as  in  the  civilized  world.

"Gukker" 


It  is  said  that  life  runs  into  opposites  ami  that  the  positive  and  negative  have  the 
fireatest  attraction  for  each  other.  No  hetter  example  of  this  can  be  afforded  than 
the  roomint;  of  Frank  with  Clarence  Miller  Freshman  year.  For  two  such  opposite 
t\pes  it  was  reall\  wonderful  how  well  they  got  along.  But  it  was  too  good  to  last, 
and  Frank  soon  began  to  show  himself  an  exceptional'  boy,  by  departing  from  the 
rule  and  taking  to  his  "boosoni"  (as  he  would  pronounce  it)  a  more  congenial  mate, 
Eddie  Ferguson   (spelled  with  a  double  "s"). 

F"rank  earl\'  proved  himself  a  great  classical  scholar,  and  in  his  Junior  ^  ear  was 
chosen  to  the  Presidenc}  of  the  Classical  Club,  and  besides  this  he  excelled  in  Clem- 
istr)    and   won   the    leaching   Fellowship. 

Frank  is  realh  famous  on  two  scores,  his  rivalry  with  Eddie  for  high  marks,  and 
the  size  of  his  head.  This  latter  is  a  cause  for  much  speculation,  for  as  far  as  the 
college  bod>  can  make  out  he  has  never  been  able  to  procure  a  hat  large  enough  to  fit 
this  momentous  chamber  of  brains,  from  which  issues  such  ponderous  and  elephantine 
humor,  and  the  result  was  that  his  top-piece  alwa\s  seemed  to  occupy  only  the  center 
of  the  stage   (yet  from  this  position  he  usually  gets  across  to  the  audience). 

His  rivalr)  with  Eddie,  however,  has  been  one  of  the  keenest  ever  witnessed  in 
college  ranks.  P'ddie  had  a  little  of  the  ad\antage  last  \ear,  but  F"rank  has  come 
back  strong  this  \ear,  and  seems  to  be  a  little  in  the  lead  and  is  sure  of  winning  Phi 
Beta  Kappa.  This  rivalry  became  so  spirited,  however,  that  serious  effects  were  feared 
when  one  of  the  contestants  stayed  up  an  hour  later  than  he  promi,sed  he  would  to 
stud\   for  an  e.xam. 

However  Frank  is  a  mighty  fine  boy,  with  a  heart  as  big  as  his  body,  and  we 
predict   a  bright   future   for   him   in   the   teaching  profession.

ones,  how  many,  how,  when  and  where?  Ah,  that  is  the 
question,  and  one  will  ponder  it  long  before  reaching  a  solu- 
tion. Report  hath  it  that  Heinie  has  about  si.\  different 
ladies  upon  whom  he  calls  in  regular  rotation  and  upon  all 
of  whom  he  smiles  with  equal  favor.  It  was  doubtless  the 
desire  of  one  of  these  to  get  ahead  of  her  hated  rivals  that 
lay  behind  the  frantic  telephone  appeals  for  Mr.  Hallett 
throughout  the  course  of  that  memorable  night  when  no  less 
than  five  deternuned  attempts  were  made  to  reach  his  ear. 


Heinie  started  his  Haxerford  career  in  the  company  of  1*518,  and  only  joined  our 
ranks  after  a  strenuous  period  of  service.  He  was  always,  in  the  old  days,  a  stalwart 
athlete,  and  has  kept  true  to  form  ever  since.  His  specialty  has  been  Soccer,  where  his 
work  has  been  consistcntlv  of  \'arsit\  standard.  He  also  shines  at  Tennis,  and  can 
quit  himself  manfull\   at  Cricket  and  Baseball  as  well. 

Heinie  is  quiet  and  unostentatious,  but,  as  e\er\one  knows,  still  waters  run  deep. 
So  keep  \<Hir  e\e  on  him.     He  will  travel   far  and  high.

PIERSON     PENROSE     HARRIS 

"Pierson"  "P.p.".. 

"/  can't  be  at  Glee  Club  Practice  to- 
nie/lit. " 

Pierson  is  one  of  the  "Five".  He 
was  one  of  the  upholders  of  the  Class 
of  1920  during  its  most  trying  times. 
In  short  Pierson  was  one  of  the  "Im- 
mortals" who  stuck  by  the  ship  in 
the  early  part  of  Junior  year,  when 
<he  had  sprung  a  bad  leak  and  was 
thought  to  be  sinking.  But  Pierson's 
hands  were  not  at  the  pumps — nay, 
it  was  with  the  piano  that  he  stopped 
the  flood  and  proved  himself  a  leader 
by  taking  over  the  reins  of  the  Y.  M. 
C.  A.  in  his  Junior  Year. 

But  let  us  not  get  too  far  away  from  the  piano,  for  it  was  there  that  P.  P. 
attained  his  greatest  fame.  Freshman  Year  he  started  his  stormy  and  rocky  road  as 
accompanist.  And  for  four  long  years  he  suffered  under  the  slurs  and  curses  of  the 
various  leaders  of  the  Musical  Clubs. 

Pierson  never  realized  that  leaders  are  usually  high;  strung  and  nervous  before  a 
concert.  So  he  calmly  came  late  whenever  necessary  and  was  often  afflicted  with  that 
terrible  disease  that  so  frequently  strikes  accompanists,  "forgetis-musicitis."  This 
immediately  caused  a  storm  of  oaths  to  shower  upon  his  unsuspecting  head. 

But  we  are  considering  only  his  faults.  Pierson  was  President  of  the  Y.  M.  C.  A., 
which  has  been  mentioned  before,  and  was  a  mighty  fine  President,  which  has  not 
been  mentioned  before.  He  took  this  responsible  position  at  a  very  difficult  time 
and  uell  succeeded  in  keeping  the  morale  as  well  as  the  morals  of  the  college  at  par. 

Because  he  was  a  day  student  the  majority  of  four  years,  few  of  us  got  to  see 
the  best  side  of  Pierson,  but  when  we  did  we  found  a  mighty  wholesome  interior,  and 
a  desire  to  do  an\  thing  for  us  that  he  could.  Pierson  is  going  to  enter  the  ministry, 
and  all  we  can  say  is  that  the  other  professions  are  losing  a  mighty  good  man.

GORDON  BIRDSALL  HARTSHORN 

"Gordon" 
"He  wears   the   rose   of  youth   upon   him." 

Hartshorn  wears  the  rose  of  youth  upon  him,  and  a  rose  it  is  indeed,  a  most 
becoming  blush.  He  rises,  ebbs,  and  flows  with  the  greatest  ease,  and  is  indicative  of 
his  naivete  and  delightful  ingenuousness  of  disposition.  We  had  heard  rumors  of 
this  when  he  was  still  with  1919,  and  our  subsequent  knowledge  of  him  has  confirmed 
the  report.  Amidst  all  the  stale  sophistication  and  cynicism  of  an  effete  age  he  pre- 
serves unblemished  a  truly  Arcadian  simplicity.      Happy  youth! 

His  service  during  the  war  was  with  the  Friends'  Reconstruction  Unit,  and  later 
with  the  American  Red  Cross,  where  he  blossomed  forth  into  the  full  glory  of.  a 
Second  Lieut. 

His  activities  in  College  have  not  been  numerous,  but  he  has  been  prodigal  of  con- 
scientious effort,  and  has  left  with  us  all  an  impression  of  sincerity  and  true  generos- 
ity of  disposition.  It  is  a  delightful  thing  to  know  a  perron  who  smiles  at  you  as  if 
he  meant  it  and  Gordon  does  that.  This  alone  is  enough  to  gain  him  a  drag  with 
St.  Peter  when  the  roll  is  called  upon  Nonder;  he'll  be  there.

WILLIAM  FAIRBANKS  HASTINGS 

"Bill" 

"Yon  niiHinbtr  the  day  that  I  iL'on  the  tivo  mile." 
When  looking  upon  the  peerless  form  of  William  Fairbanks  Hastings,  known 
affectionately  to  his  friends  as  "dieses",  you  would  hardly  suspect  that  he  was  one  of 
the  world's  great  two  milers;  but  you  would  soon  find  out  your  mistake  when  you 
held  even  a  short  conversation  with  him.  For  his  is  the  silver  tongue  that  sold  more 
copies  of  the  People's  Home  Library  than  our  printer  has  figures  to  the  anxiously 
awaiting  farmers  of  our  rural  communities,  where  e\ents  are  still  dated  from  the  day 
"when  I  bought  that  book  from  the  nice  young  college  fellow".  He  was  a  nice  young 
fellow  because  they  never  read  the  book. 

We  did  not  have  the  pleasure  of  having  Bill  with  us  till  the  beginning  of  Sopho- 
more year,  when  he  entered  from  the  class  of  1919  after  a  year's  absence.  Again  in 
Junior  year  he  was  absent  from  from  our  ranks,  and  suspicion  was  rife  that  he  had 
"been  elected  President  of  the  People's  Home  Library  Corporation,  but  he  was  up  at 
M.  I.  T.  He  returned  again  in  Senior  year,  and  took  up  his  abode  in  the  new  quarters 
of  Founders  Hall,  with  the  half  breeds  and  the  bell.  He  is  the  oldest  living  inhabitant 
of  Founders  of  the  Class  of  1!I20.  and  for  that  reason  and  on  account  of  the  fact  that 
he  has  been  with  us  onh  two  years,  we  have  not  known  him  as  well  as  we  should 
have  wished.  We  understand  that  he  is  going  to  be  a  teacher  next  year,  and  being 
the  possessor  of  the  abo\e  mentioned  silver  tongue  we  are  confident  that  he  will  succeed.

JOHN  SHIKLDS  HAYNES 
"Jack" 

" {  sUfllCC  ) 


Jack  did   not  bet^in  his   Haverford   career  with   lis,  nor 
is  he  with  us  at  the  finish.      His  first  love  was  1Q19.  arul  ■ 
he  came  to  us  after  the  usual  period  of  service. 

Jack's  most  prominent  trait  was  reserve,  amoimting 
almost  to  sh\ness.  Anyone,  however,  who  could  break 
throui^h  the  crust  was  well  repaid  for  the  ettort,  for  he 
was  one  of  the  most  thoroughly  likable  men  it  has  been 
our  fortune  to  meet. 

He  was  another  of  those  mysterious  persons  who  dis- 
appear at  frequent  inter\als,  no  man  knoweth  whither. 
Did  he  lead  a  double  life?  Diil  he  have  a  secret  love? 
Did  he  indidge  in  onions  unsuspected  and  undetected  by 
his  fellow  men?  Speculation  on  these  points  was  ever 
rife,  but  no  conclusive  evidence  has  to  date  been  forth- 
coming. 

Of  his  athletic  abilit\  we  need  hardly  speak.  He  was  an  extremeh  trick\  south- 
paw, and  twirled  \aliantl\'  for  the  Varsity.  He  could  also  be  counted  on  as  a  reliable 
catcher.  At  Tennis  he  starred  perhaps  even  more  than  at  Baseball.  In  both  singles 
and  doubles  he  was  a  sure  bet,  and  his  departure  was  a  great  blow  to  Tennis  hopes 
for  the  season. 

We  regret  exceedingly  that  he  was  not  able  to  stay  with  us  to  the  finish,  and  wish 
him  even'  success  in  whate\er  field  may  next  attract  his  energies.

J.  ALLEN  HISEY 
"Al" 

"Look  out!     You're  kidding  rnt." 

When  Al  turned  up  after  the  Armistice  and  an- 
nounced his  intention  of  joining  our  class,  there  was  gen- 
eral rejoicing.  He  had  left  the  class  of  1918  to  enter 
the  service,  and  now  emerged  an  Artillery  Lieutenant  to 
complete  his  education.  The  simultaneous  arrival  of 
Marney  Crosman,  originally  a  member  of  the  same  class, 
rendered  us  doubly  indebted   to  that  body. 

We  now  had  a  track  team.  Al,  having  been  a  stellar 
performer  in  that  line  ever  since  his  Penn  Charter  days, 
was  at  once  elected  to  the  captaincy.  Whenever  he  could 
spare  the  time,  he  also  caught  on  the  baseball  team,  prov- 
ing a  valuable  acquisition  to  Doc  Bennett's  Nasty  Nine. 
He  would  also  have  made  the  football  team  next  fall  had 
not  a  serious  accident  the  ensuing  summer  rendered  him 
incapable  of   engaging  in   any   athletics   whatever. 

Al  was  certainly  an  open-hearted  and  friendly  soul.  He  was  at  all  times  eager 
to  take  a  joke,  but  it  must  be  admitted  that  in  the  vast  majority  of  cases  he  didn't 
take  them  at  all — he  was  merely  exposed  to  them.  Either  they  would  ricochet,  or 
effect  an  entrance  with  great  difficulty.  Once  they  penetrated,  however,  Al's  great 
ringing  laugh  would  burst  forth  about  four  minutes  late  and  he  would  proceed  to 
derive  every  morsel  of  enjoyment  therein  contained. 

A  certain  young  lady  well  qualified  to  judge  has  expressed  her  opinion  that  Al  is 
the  most  divine  looking  person  of  her  extended  acquaintance.  Nature  has  certainly 
endowed  Al  with  those  qualities  that  set  the  feminine  heart  a-flutter.  But  Nature 
lias  been  generous  also  with  those  qualities  of  personalit)  and  comradeship  which  en- 
dear him  equally  to  the  opposite  fex.  In  a  word,  Al  is  one  of  those  rare  persons  whom 
everyone  likes — and  what  is  more — everyone  respects,  a  close  companion  and  a  true 
friend.

GILBERT  THOMAS  HOAG. 

"Gil" 

"ffhyf" 

Had  we  have  described  Gil  at  the  beginning 
of  Senior  year  we  should  have  undoubtedly  given 
the  preeminent  position  in  our  picture  to  his  rough- 
housing  abilities — we  should  have  pictured  him  in 
shirt  and  sleeves  or  less,  with  dishevelled  hair,  and 
with  a  wild  look  of  exuberance  as  he  sprawled  over 
Mullin  or  some  other  luckless  victim — but  as  we 
are  writing  at  the  very  close  of  our  college  ca:« 
cer,  we  can't  but  recognize  that  the  scene  of  Gil's 
activities  has  shifted  to  Bryn  Mawr,  or  maybe 
Smith — but  that's  a  secret!  Gil  has  now  put  all 
the  ardor  of  his  South  Barclay  tussles  into  the 
pleasant  occupation  of  rushing  the  ladies;  armed 
with  two  combs,  he  dashes  to  Bryn  Mawr  in  the 
Franklin  and  enlivens  otherwise  tame  parlor  calls 
with  raids  on  the  Rockefeller  and  Pembroke  mural 
decorations. 


"  I  don't  see  -that 

THAT     PROVES    ANYTMINa.' 


However  important  a  trait,  that  is  but  one  side  of  a  versatile  character:  although 
Gil  calls  himself  "a  lazy  man," — and  one  might  almost  believe  he  were  one  from  his 
habit  of  making  wagers  to  force  himself  to  do  anything  from  letter  writing  to  keep- 
ing his  Barclay  Store  Bill  below  $3  a  week — nevertheless  he  has  been  active  in 
practically  every  phase  of  college  life. 

Now  and  then  Gil  tries  his  hand  at  verse  making  and  with  some  success  too 
as  is  shown  by  his  capture  of  the  Hibbard  prize.  In  athletics  he  has  had  a  varied 
experience:  the  football,  soccer  and  cricket  fields,  the  swimming  pool  and  gymnasium 
have  ail  been  the  scene  of  his  activities;  the  track  squad  has  also  claimed  him  as  an 
asset  in  the  weights. 

Had  he  a  stronger  voice  and  a  more  emotional  nature,  Gil  would  have  been  an 
excellent  debator,  for  his  are  the  debater's  logic  and  quickness  of  thought,  combin- 
ing a  fondness  and  ability  for  argument  with  native  stubbornness  and  a  caustic  wit, 
he  was  a  dangerous  opponent  as  some  of  his  classmates,  notabh  Silver,  learnt  after 
repeated  punishment.

DO    YOU 
GIVE    UP?" 


MILTON  ADOLPH    KAMSLER 
".Milt" 

"S/iy.  lime  about  that  ail  for  the  Record?" 

The  only  one  beside  the  Almighty  who 
understood  Fine's  Algebra,  Milt  early 
leaped  into  prominence  in  Haverford's 
mathematical  circles,  and  is  one  of  the  main 
reafons  why  F  of  x  has  been  able  to  endure 
life  since  that  July  1st  of  cursed  memor\ . 
Milt  has  taken  all  the  math,  prizes  that 
there  are,  in  addition  to  tutoring  some  hun- 
dreds of  his  clas-mates  pa^t  the  rocks  of 
Freshman  math.,  and  has  gone  on  and  on  in 
that  fascinating  subject,  until  he  can  talk 
about  integral  functions  without  a  stam- 
mer. 

Perhaps  his  mathematical  knowledge  is  the  reason  for  iXIilt's  undoubted  success 
as  a  business  manager.  With  his  steady  hand  on  the  helm  the  News  sailed  safely 
through  the  stormiest  career  in  its  histor\ ,  and  when  other  publications  were  throwing 
up  their  hands  and  quitting,  the  Neics  merely  raised  its  price  and  went  on.  Milt  was 
the  logical  man  to  manage  the  brilliant  publication  that  you  now  hold  in  your  hands, 
enthusiastic  reader,  and  it  is  due  to  him  that  you  are  reading  it.  Anybody  who  could 
get  thirty  dollars"  worth  of  ads  out  of  Hoag — oh,  well,  'nuff  said. 

No  account  of  this  business  genius  would  be  complete  without  mention  of  his 
rough  houses  with  Jebb,  and  his  shirts.  Our  artist  has  caught  him  in  the  midst  of 
one  of  these  combats,  in  which  he  engages  on  the  slightest  provocation,  and  in  which 
he  always  ends  up  where  he  is  in  the  picture.  From  thence  issues  his  choked  voice, 
"Do  you  surrender?"  or  "Will  you  give  up?"  which  words,  when  the\  permeate 
Jebb's  consciousness  about  fifteen  minutes  later,  are  the  signal  for  more. 

Milt  owns  more  silk  shirts  than  an\  three  men  in  college,  and  they  are  composed 
of  every  color  from  ultra-violet  to  infra-red.  Where  they  come  from  no  one  knows, 
as  there  are  no  color  maniacs,  as  far  as  we  know,  in  the  shirt  industry,  and  the  onh 
explanation  is  that  Milt  has  a  relative  with  a  cynical  grudge  against  the  world  who  is 
getting  his  vengeance  thus,  and  makes  them  himself.  And  there  is  another  mystery 
in  .Milt's  life,  too — where  he  goes  on  Saturday  nights,  with  all  his  gala  attire. 

Milt  is  going  into  law  (in  fact,  he  has  already  been  at  the  bar),  and  what  with 
his  business  ability,  his  capacity  of  never  knowing  when  he  is  on  the  bottom,  and  his 
shirts,  we  predict  for  him  all  sorts  of  success  and  all  the  business,  anyway,  of  his  class.

THOMAS  HENRY  KEARNEY 

"Tom" 

Are  you  popl>in(/  up  tu  Bryn  RIaivr  to-night? 

They  say  Kearney  is  Irish ;  we  are  disposed  to  believe  this  is  true,  having  fre- 
quently been  delighted  by  the  vernal  color  of  his  clothes.  It  has  not  been  proved 
that  Tom  walks  the  ties  during  the  summer  months,  but  his  habits  during  the 
winter  are  decidedly  predatory.  Despite  Mullins'  protests,  Oliver  maintains  that 
Tom  has  bought  cigarettes.  It  is  only  fair  to  state  that  he  has  "added  his  share  to 
the  social  surplus"  by  dispensing  evening  equipment  to  his  friends.  Tom  is  an  adept 
at  throwing,  he  pitches,  he  bowls,  he  forward  passes ;  and  he  takes  Economics. 

Tom  is  a  gymnast  only  as  concerns  his  voice.  Veritably  Tom  is  a  singer,  though 
his  concerts  are  often  ill-timed.  His  debut  in  grand  opera  was  not  a  success,  owing 
to  an  unfortunate  and  solitary  exit.     Caruso  has  not  spoken  to  him  since. 

He  has  a  long  list  of  achievements;  athletic,  managerial,  and  social.  As  a  member 
of  the  "Bryn  Mawr  Wrecking  Crew"  Tom  has  an  enviable  "wreckord".  His  laugh, 
his  line  and  his  loving  disposition  have  won  him  many  friends  among  the  fair  sex. 
Well  known  in  every  girls'  school  in  eastern  Pennsylvania,  he  is  compelled  to  keep  a 
notebook  cataloging  his  women.  When  we  are  sitting  in  the  gym  at  Brwn  Mawr, 
at  a  play,  and  hear  some  shy  damsel  near  us  ask  "O  mamma  who  is  that  stunning 
young  man  just  coming  in?"  we  know  without  turning  that  it  is  our  old  friend  Tom, 
the  handsome  quarterback.  West  Chester  had  done  little  to  develop  Tom's  talents, 
but  even  as  early  as  the  end  of  Sophomore  year,  he  had  become  so  proficient  that  his 
exploits  in  the  Sunken  Garden  won  the  admiration  of  all  Haverford  and  Bryn  Mawr.

"Joe" 
"Labor  is  gttting  to  he  a  serious  problem. 

"I  thought  I'd  take  some  pictures  today,"  says  Joe.  looking  at  his  rubbers.  Joe 
always  wears  rubbers.  Is  this  a  universal  characteristic  of  class  photographers?  We 
ask  to  know.  In  the  field  of  photography,  his  chimney  corner  reproductive  creations 
have  caused  quite  a  stir.     In  his  settings,  he  aims  at  insecurity  in  high  places. 

Joe  shows  great  ability  as  a  physicist,  practicing  Newton's  Law  on  the  roof,  and 
checking  off  the  light  waves  as  they  break  against  the  mansard.  His  vocations  are 
box  parties  at  the  opera  and  playing  the  mandolin,  which  he  operates  with  a  technique 
of  facial  expression  quite  unsurpassed.  It  has  been  rumored  that  Toogie  in  leading 
the  Mandolin  Club  takes  Joe's  inattention  as  a  compliment. 

Joe  is  never  late  to  anything;  he  always  goes  to  classes  before  the  first  bell,  and  is 
in  attendance  at  Tuesday  Collection  at  eight  .\.  M.  Why?  Again  we  ask  to  know. 
Joe  did  not  join  the  Haverford  Emergency  Unit.  We  thought  him  foolish  at  the 
time;  but  when  we  found  ourselves  a  race  of  trotters,  a  squad  of  fifty  men,  attired 
in  uniforms  built  all  for  the  same  man, — whose  form  was  a  combination  of  Mr.  Hyde 
and  a  mechanical  monstrosity — bringing  forth  litters  in  front  of  the  Infirmary,  we 
came  to  a  better  appreciation  of  Joe's  foresight, — which,  as  you  will  remember,  is 
the  first  requisite  of  ci\ilization. 

Joe  cuts  a  big  figure  among  the  ladies  from  Walnut  Lane  to  8th  and  Vine. 
Whether  the  big  Franklin  (gross  capacity  five  persons)  is  in  any  way  responsible,  we 
should  hate  to  say;  as  we  still  have  our  illusions  about  the  fair  sex.  If  you  see  a 
tall,  dark  giantess  seemingly  dancing  alone  on  the  floor,  she  is  probably  with  Joe.  AH 
in  all.  altogether,  the  sum  of  all  his  parts,  Joe  is  a  fine  fellow  ;  we  can  only  regret 
that  he  did  not  live  on  the  campus.

Duu^  unfurtunatcl)  lived  at  home  during;  his  four  colley;e  \ears,  thus  making 
friendship  with  his  classmates  somewhat  difficult.  In  fact,  Doug  was  with  us  but 
little,  except  in  the  class  room,  stridintr  home  across  Haverford  Avenue  as  soon  as 
his  college  work  was  over. 

The  members  of  the  gymnasium  squad,  h()\\e\er,  knew  him  well  for  he  performed 
on  the  mats  during  four  years,  becoming  captain  Senior  year.  McKinley,  Long  and 
Doug  were  a  trio  of  tumblers  the  equal  of  which  it  would  be  difficult  to  find  in  any 
other  Eastern  college.  During  the  fall  of  his  last  \ear  in  college  Doug  was  also  to 
be  seen  on  Walton  field  as  end  on  the  Varsity,  in  which  position  he  won  the  football 
"H"'.  Doug's  pole  vaulting,  too.  must  not  be  forgotten — it  was  an  ability  which 
brought  us  several  points  in  interclass  track  meets. 

Unbeknownst  to  us,  Doug  steps  up  to  Wa\  ne  with  some  frequency.  It  is  whis- 
pered that  here  he  lays  aside  his  usual  cloak  of  silence  and  abandons  himself  to  the 
wild  social  whirl.  Still  waters  run  deep;  we've  always  suspected  he  was  keeping 
something  from  us. 

For  most  of  us  Doug  was  a  tall,  supple,  silent  fellow,  a  beautiful  tumbler — and 
that's  all.     It  would  have  repaid  us  well  to  have  known  him  better.

CLARENCE  JAMES  LEUBA 

"Clarence"  "Lubba" 

"ff  hat  u'e  accoinplhht'd  in   the  News." 

Catholicism  liad  its  Luther,  Protestantism  its  Wesley,  slavery  its  Garrison,  but 
all  these  reformers  were  as  nothing,  nothing,  to  Haverford  College  and  its  Leuba. 
1'he  thmgs  they  had  to  strive  against  were  as  nothing  to  his  almost  insuperable  handi- 
cap, a  name  that  it  is  impossible  to  pronounce  the  same  way  twice  (try  it,  and  see), 
and  correctly  once,  and  yet  he  labored  on,  with  that  same  indomitable  obstinacy  of 
spirit  that  gave  him  the  Phi  Beta  Kappa  at  the  end  of  Junior  year,  and  the  Clementine 
Cope  at  the  end  of  Senior,  and  Godknozwhat  in  two  years  more.  Soon  he  had  so 
tutored  three  or  four  men  so  that  he  knew  the  subject  of  conversation  when  they 
pronoLuiced  his  name,  and  then  he  went  on  to  greater  glory. 

As  editor  of  the  Xeus  his  sturdy  idealism  never  quailed  before  the  fact  that  the 
unkempt  undergraduates  seemed  to  pass  their  lives  in  blissful  carelessness,  whether 
or  not  de  Valera  was  president  (with  or  without  quotation  marks),  and  so  he  turned 
the  full  force  of  his  pitiful.  I  mean  to  say.  pitiless  pen.  to  that  crying  evil,  penny  ante. 
Many  a  man  had  stayed  up  to  half  past  ten,  and  lost  six  cents,  and  so  appeared  that 
stinging  editorial  which  reformed  the  undergraduates  into  passing  a  vote  of  censorship. 
Ji'e,  Caesar! 

His  indefatigable  spirit  in  everything  to  which  his  Gallic  mind  turns  gave  him  a 
position  on  the  soccer  team,  and  the  tennis  managership,  not  to  mention  the  Student 
Council  and  the  right  to  disagree  with  Chris.  He  would,  however,  disagree  with  any- 
body- on  anything,  whether  he  had  the  right  or  not.  Possessed  with  really  a  superior 
intellect  and  the  ability  to  work,  which  so  seldom  accompanies  it,  it  is  still  quite  a 
mystery  why  he  should  turn  it  to  Economics,  unless  that  in  it  he  foresees  that  he  can 
look  forward  to  a  lifelong  argument.  We  predict  that  the  end  of  the  argument,  as 
with  his  life,  will   be  a  victorv,  and  he  will  argue  whether  or  not  to  accept  a  harp.

"Ike" 

"Riiq,   put   those   collar   buttons   in 
my  shirt.'' 

Ike  and  Jasm  Pierce  claim  the 
distinction  of  being  the  only  two 
charter  members  of  Kinse\'  now 
extant,  the  others  having  all  passed 
into  that  bourne  whence  no  Kinsey- 
ite  returns — the  college  office.  Isaac 
has  kept  house  for  a  variegated 
series  of  thankless  amanuenses 
starting  with  Charley  Phelps  and 
running  through  the  whole  corpor- 
ation to  Toogie.  He  is  a  startling 
example  of  the  ravages  which  the 
degenerate  college  life  works  in  a 
bo\-.  as  he  now  smokes  openly ;  also 
when  he  first  arri\ed  he  would 
leave  the  room  if  anything  of  a  del- 
icate nature  were  pulled — now 
even  the  hardened  Kiiiseyites  get 
up  and  depart. 

Ike  has  the  most  complete  equipment  of  household  effects  in  Montgomery  county, 
not  least  of  which  is  his  famous  "Buffet",  the  Lares  and  Penates  of  Kinsey  since 
Freshman  year.  The  uniform  untidiness  and  messiness  of  mankind  in  disporting  them- 
selves around  this  center  of  culinary  and  social  life  has  been  one  of  the  bitterest  ele- 
ments in  Ike's  existence.  He  has  never  been  able  to  train  any  one  to  a  proper  sense  of 
neatness  except  Rog,  whom  he  has  reduced  to  the  point  where  a  stern  glance  is  suffi- 
cient to  make  him  pick  up  that  scrap  of  paper  or  turn  down  his  coat  collar. 

But  in  Rog,  Ike  has  found  a  kindred  soul  who  shares  his  passion  for  tidiness,  mathe- 
matics and  visitmg  up  the  line  at  the  place  we  all  know.  Rog  also  helps  him  to 
bathe,  undress  and  go  to  bed,  none  of  which  functions  Ike  will  perform  alone.  It  is 
rumored  that  they  have  undergone  the  rite  of  blood  brotherhood  and  address  each 
other  privately  in  terms  incomprehensible  to  man. 

Ike  has  been  for  two  years  a  shining  light  on  the  Extension  Committee,  and  our 
overwhelming  class  total  in  the  Endowment  Fund  drive  was  largely  due  to  his 
indefatigable  efforts.  Whatever  he  undertakes  he  does  conscientiously  and  well. 
Verilv  he  is  a  good  bt)y  and  we  love  him.

WILLIARD  B.  MOORE 

"Bill" 

"}  on    think   you're'   funny,   don't   yuh?  ' 

Hill  began  before  us — he  was  a  hangover — yet,  unlike 
the  morning  after  the  night  before,  he  did  not  have  a 
(lark  brown  taste:  but  preferred  French  blondes.  We 
ne\  er  accused  Bill  of  unpleasant  keenness  of  appreception 
or  of  becoming  intoxicated  at  the  Pierian  spring  —  he 
doesnt  like  water — until  it  was  our  privilege  to  watch 
the  flash  of  his  bold  intellect  when  Watson  to  start  the 
bull  rolling  dared  to  call  a  spade  a  spade. 

Watson:    "There  are  more  boys  born  than  girls." 

Bill:    "But  were  thex   stricth    bo\s?" 


Of  course  there  are  more  and  different  questions  he  could  have  asked  :  but  orig- 
inality is  his  forte.  Bill  was  one  of  those  pri\ileged  to  help  win  the  war  in  France, 
which  may  account  for  his  intimate  knowledge  of  \ital  statistics.  He  plays  learnedly 
on  the  banjolinden  and  the  Eucalyptus;  his  classic  triumph  being  that  delightful  ditt\ 
entitled:  "Put  Me  to  Sleep  at  the  End  of  a  Rolling  Pin."  Seeing  his  athletic  opera- 
tions on  a  banjo,  formally  attired,  and  his  skillful  head-work,  informallv  attired,  on 
the  soccer  field,  we  have  no  hesitancy  in  appraising  him  as  a  rounded  man. — don't  mis- 
understand us,  we  do  not  mean  a  rounder;  we  have  already  discussed  France. 

By  the  wa\ ,  he  brought  back  with  him  an  excellent  collection  of  those  delightfully 
frank  French  stories,  which  we  should  enjoy  repeating  here  for  the  benefit  of  attentive 
posterity ,  but  we  live  in  deadly  awe  of  the  Editor.  Bill  plays  in  Haverford's  famous 
Jazorchestra  with  both  eclat  and  clan,  and  is  blessed  with  a  good  humored,  cheerful 
disposition  which  is  an  enviable  attribute,  making  for  enjoyment  for  himself  and  friends.

"Tommie" 
"IVvH.   what  do   ynu  think   of  thiil.   anyhuiv.'      Louk   nhiit   thu.u    p'/or   nuts   from   thf 

North  tire  trying  to  sent/  iix.     J    miserable  sixty-nine  cents.      If  here  ilo  they   rate 

thai  stuff,  anyhoiif" 

Thus  may  be  heard  Tommy,  our  cultured  cub  reporter,  'most  any  morning,  especi- 
all.\-  around  the  first  of  the  month.  Although  he  rakes  in  riches  incomparable,  he  is 
never  satisfied.  From  his  tone  you  would  never  suspect  that  our  famous  firm  of  cor- 
respondents (  we  hope  not  corespondents  )  was  engaged  in  lining  (Oscar's  pockets  with 
its  princel\  di\idend  checks.  If  you  did  realize  this  you  would  probablv  at  first  be 
inclined  to  regard  him  with  the  ailmixture  of  admiration  and  awe  which  his  cheerful 
greeting  and  genial  line  of  conversation  are  far  from  inducing. 

But,  however  the  remunerative  end  may  be,  Haverford  surel>-  draws  its  share  of 
publicity,  even  if  Gunga  Palmer  has  to  hail  from  Vineland  or  Smith  must  needs 
ruin  his  interior  with  nasty  balls  for  the  good  of  the  firm. 

But  where  Tommy  really  shines  is  draped  around  a  telephone  pay  station.  It  is' 
a  liberal  education  to  hear  him  make  the  call  to  that  girl  in  Cheltenham  without 
troubling  the  bloated  income  of  the  Bell  Telephone  Compan\ .  The  only  time  he 
failed  to  kill  the  operator  was  when  the  one  with  whom  he  had  made  the  date  the 
night  before  recognized  his  voice. 

From  chasing  News  Tommy  has  developed  a  lot  of  locomoti\e  abilitv.  which  has 
carried  him  to  the  front  in  several  races  especially  over  the  880  route.  He  has  been 
one  of    1920"s  mainstays  on  the  track  during  the  whole  of  our  sojourn  in  college. 

Tommy  can  be  a  hard  worker  when  he  wants  to  be,  which  is  not  quite  all  the 
time.  But  when  he  enters  the  newspaper  game  for  good.  William  Randolph  and 
Lord  Northcliffe  will  have  to  look  to  their  laurels.  Before  many  .\ears  we  shall 
expect  to  he  digesting  his  editorial  comment  with  our  breakfasts.

JAMES  TORBERT  MULLIN 

"Jim" 
"On    my   disk,   under  the  second  layer." 

In  introducing  the  reader  to  this  youth- 
ful prodigy,  we  feel  it  necessary  to  warn 
him  that  the  prolonged  appraising  stare, 
which  will  preceed  his  curt  "How  do" 
should  not  he  construed  as  a  sign  for  imme- 
diate warfare.  His  mind  is  probahh  occu- 
pied with  the  extreme  beauty  of  your  coun- 
tenance, dear  sir,  and  not  with  guaging  the 
best  means  of  attack.  This  rather  uncon- 
\entional  indifference  of  Jim's  has  not, 
however,  prevented  his  placing  several  sig- 
nificant notches  on  the  end  of  his  fountain 
pen.  The  meaning  of  these  small  inden- 
tures has  not  been  altogether  ascertained, 
but  we  are  convinced  that  they  have  some- 
thing to  do  with  his  achievements  with  the 
fair  se.\. 


To  the  multitudes  who  doubt,  we  wish  to  protest  that  Jim  does  do  some  work, 
though  his  efforts  are  in  no  proportion  to  his  rewards.  At  odd  moments  he  has  been 
caught  working  even  for  the  Ken's  and  the  Barclay  Store.  But  it  is  as  an  executive 
that  James  excels.  He  is  perfection  in  this  line — for  he  always  succeeds  in  getting 
someone  else  to  do  the  dirty  work.  The  only  official  dut\  he  clings  to  is  that  of 
signing  checks,  which  task  he  makes  extremely  light,  in  spite  of  Leuba's  plaintive 
arguments. 

Jim  has  studied  unheard  of  amounts  of  Greek  whence  doubtless  comes  his  stoicism 
with  regard  to  the  touching  appeals  of  alumni  who  get  their  Nen-s  about  once  a  year. 
Hence  also,  may  be,  did  he  derive  his  marvelous  knowledge  of  the  feminine  mind. 
How  else  could  he  have  discovered  the  wonderful  efficacy  of  bright  blue  paper  for 
conquering  the  elusive  hearts  of  school  girls,  how  else  could  he  have  learned  his  ever- 
successful  method  of  searching  nicks?  But  the  best  things  about  James  didn't  have 
to  be  learned.  Endowed  by  nature  and  a  Humorous  God  with  an  owlish  expression 
and  an  inexhaustible  fund  of  good-humor,  Jim  is  sure  always  to  win  many  friends, — 
even  in  Westchester.

ALAN    DOUGLAS   OLIVER 

"Doug" 
"Riot  lie  Carnbron." 

Our  early  impression  of  Doug  was,  we 
are  glad  to  say,  completely  dispelled  ;  when, 
returning  from  the  other  side,  he  joined 
our  class. — for  in  our  first  year  on  him  de- 
volved the  odious  dut\'  to  uphold  the  un- 
breakable tradition  of  bawling  out  the 
Freshman  class.  But  when,  after  being 
seriously  sick  in  Syria,  he  came  back  to  us 
mustached  and  engaged,  a  new  appraisal 
told  us  that  of  sterling  qualities  he  had  a 
number. 


A  poet,  winner  of  the  verse  prize,  a  Cricket  captain,  with  a  fine  bowling  record, 
having  left  furniture  dealing  behind,  his  success  as  a  business  man  is  assured.  Those 
of  us  uiio  patronized  his  Barcla\  store  \\  rongly  suspected  him  of  a  desire  to  get  ahead 
of  US;  hut  when  we  haw  him  run  the  himdrcd.  we  knew  he  did  not  need  to  get  ahead 
of  an\bod\'. 

So  in  life.  ()!i\er  will  always  ask  for  more! 

His  English  accent  does  not  wear  well;  it  has  been  wearing  off, — that  is  he  has 
been  wearing  it  out;  and  worn  as  it  now  is,  it  is  no  longer  distinguishable  from  the 
Boston.  An  authority  on  literature,  a  speaker,  an  athlete,  a  peerless  raconteur,  the 
possessor  of  the  record  of  the  first  official  engagement  in  the  class,  with  his  foot  on 
tlie  ladder  of  plutocratic  success,  he  stands  at  a  delectable  height ;  he  will  mount  high. 
— anil  then  sell  the  ladder.

KENNETH  STUART  OLIVER 

"Checrie  O.  Old  Dear." 

Kenny  was  another  who,  coming  hefore  us,  leaves 
with  us.  He  was  an  acquisition  to  the  class  for  which 
we  thank  the  exii^encies  of  the  war.  He  represents  that 
t\  pe  of  old  world  culture  that  unfortunately  is  dying  out 
with  this  joyful  jazz  generation; — not  that  he  doesn't 
jazz. 

Kenny's  vocal  attainments  are  remarkable,  running 
the  gamut  of  the  gentle  drawl  of  the  English  aristocracy, 
of  French  understootl  even  by  French  taxi  dri\ers,  of 
Hoosier,  and  of  emotional  expression  worthy  of  Sarah 
Bernhardt  or  Thedda  Barer-than-ever.  This  ^lerry 
Pickford  of  the  Ha\erford  stage  early  leapt  into  promi- 
nence as  one  of  the  most  versatile  interpreters  of  the  soul 
of  a  woman. 


He  is  also  proficient  in  cutting  up  cats. — perhaps  there  is  some  connection. 

Kenn\  thinks  radically,  acts  conservatively,  and  dresses  the  same  way.  In  the 
meetings  of  the  Social  Science  Club,  he  could  talk  instructi\el\  on  anything  from  the 
Trust  Problem  to  the  Pnstitution  of  the  Peerage, — thus  showing  his  intimate  knowl- 
edge of  high  life.     Kelsey  says  he  prefers  the  expression  Swamping  the  Lords. 

Kenny's  career  will  not  be  meteoric ;  he  has  the  steady  stick-to-it-iveness  of  those 
that  get  there:  and  withal  he  is  a  calm,  peaceful,  consistent  Hedonist  of  the  higher 
sort.  Does  he  go  in  for  lust?  \  es,  of  course, — that  he  goes  in  for  music,  the  most 
refined  lust  of  the  senses.  His  success  as  a  doctor  is  assured; — if  he  can  withstand  the 
call  of  silent  drama. 

Kenny  was  a  high  light  in  the  class,  a  universal  friend,  and  he  liked  whipped 
cream.  He  is  an  authorit\  on  good  taste,  is  a  possessor  of  a  keen  appreciation  of  the 
best  things  in  this  world,  and  has  high  intellectual  ability.

CHESTER  ARTHUR  OSLER 

"Ches" 
■■Hello.  K'ld!" 

If  there  is  an.\  thing  in  this  reincarnaticMi  theory, 
Chettie  was  a  large  dashing  Viking  in  his  former 
state.  He  certainly  has  the  build  and  the  blond 
Norwegian  complexion,  to  say  nothing  of  the  abil- 
ity- to  put  away  tlie  mead.  But  there  the  compari- 
son ends,  for  Ches  is  the  most  open-hearted  and 
generous  boy  in  the  world  and  couldn't  be  a  pirate 
if  he  tried.     "What's  mine  is  vours"  is  his  motto. 


Ches  left  the  class  of  '1')  to  enter  the  a\iation  and  tried  repeatedly  to  get  himself 
killed  in  France  but  landed  on  his  head  every  time.  He  returned  after  the  War  to 
enter  our  clasis,  having  acquired  a  lot  of  experience,  glory,  and  feminine  admirers  who 
write  him  the  dmlUst  letters  imaginable.  All  his  lady  friends  aren't  in  France,  how- 
ever; not  b\-  a  damsite.  They  are  scattered  all  along  the  Atlantic  coast,  both  here  and 
in  England.  Speaking  of  F^ngland,  Ches  walked  away  with  the  Rhodes  Scholarship 
for  New  Jersey  (  which  happy  commonwealth  contains  his  native  town  )  and  expects 
to  spend  the  next  three  years  at  Oxford.  Add  to  this  the  fact  that  he  was  President 
of  the  Students'  Association  and  the  Student  Council,  beside  being  captain  of  the  soccer 
rteam  and  a  shining  light  on  the  cricket  team,  and  one  may  safely  sa\  that  he  has  done 
fairly  well  for  a  boy. 

And  Ches  has  the  ability  and  the  personality  to  duplicate  this  success  in  after  life. 
We  all  wish  him  the  best  good  fortune  in  the  future  and  hope  that  he  will  continue 
as  close  a  friend  to  us  all  out  in  the  world  as  lie  has  been  here  at  college.

I    RECALL     THAT 
IDENTICAL     PROBLEM  y 
AT      EARL  HAM    ' 


ROBERT  LOWELL   PETRY 
"Petry" 

Petry  is  short;  short  both  in  stature  anil  speech.  The  former  feature  works  to 
his  disadvantage  in  the  mighty  "battle  of  the  Titans"  in  Founders.  The  latter  gift 
shows  his  true  greatness.  At  the  table  only  he  breaks  into  the  conversation  with  a 
well-timed  remark.  But  Bob  is  not  taciturn.  He  just  has  small  time  for  trivialities. 
Swearing  is  inefficient,  and  inefficiency    really  pains  him. 

Our  hero  is  a  great  organizer.  During  his  four  years  at  Earlham  he  manifested 
this  by  building  up  a  really  marvelous  intelligence  department.  (No,  we  don't  mean 
his  brain.)  When  anything  of  importance  happens  at  that  Western  center  of  Quaker 
Scholarship,  Johnnie  tells  it  to  Ann,  Ann  confides  it  to  Maria;  Maria  lets  Mabel 
know,  and  the  next  day  it  is  at  Haverford,  for  know,  gentle  reader,  that  every  third 
co-ed  in  the  place  is  a  Petry  agent. 

We  didn't  know  Bob  for  some  time  after  he  arrived  on  the  campus.  He  looked 
like  the  ordinary  gentleman  from  Indiana,  but  under  that  sleek  mat  of  hair  is  a  pon- 
derous mass  of  wrinkled  protoplasm  which  is  his  chief  glory.  After  the  first  quarter 
we  found  Dr.  Wilson  had  uncovered  a  math,  shark  of  the  first  water.  Now,  when 
Bob  speaks  the  good  doctor  says,  "Quite  right,  Mr.  Petry,  let  us  take  Up  the  next 
problem."  It  is  also  whispered  about  the  campus  that  he  is  getting  more  out  of  the 
graduate  school  than  many  enrolled  there.

JESSE  EVAN  PHILIPS 

"I'll  be  asleep  in  my  room.'' 


"Phil" 


Jess  was  another  of  the  band  wlio  deserted  to  us  from  the  ranks  of  1910.  He 
has  proved  indeed  a  valuable  acquisition.  Since  joining  us  his  habitat  has  been  in  third 
floor  Center,  and,  rooming  with  the  syncopated  Earnest,  it  was  inevitable  that  he 
should  be  conscripted  into  the  famous  "Jazzorchestra",  especially  since  he  is  an  adept 
with  the  drum  sticks.  Performing  both  with  this  distinguished  organization  and 
with  the  iXIandolin  Club,  he  has  had  ample  opportunity  of  displaying  his  unfailing 
pep  and  ginger,  and  has  rattled  himself  straight  into  the  hearts  of  who  knows  how 
many  of  the  fair! 

In  addition  to  this  cheerful  occupation  he  has  done  brave  deeds  on  the  gridiron, 
earning  the  coveted  "H"  in  his  Junior  year.  He  has  also  given  a  good  account  of 
himself  in  Track  and  Basketball. 

Of  these  achievements  all  the  world  knows,  but  few  realize  that  Jess  is  also  a 
careful,  thorough  student,  especiallv  in  the  Held  of  History.  Teaching  of  this,  we 
believe,  will  be  his  life-work,  and  we  are  sure  that  every  success  will  attend  his  efforts.

brow,  but  them  days  is  past.  We  find  him  now  hoping  only  to  retain  enough  shrub- 
bery to  keep  the  flies  away. 

Jim  is  possessed  of  a  body  that  is  vulgarly  well  developed,  a  personality  that  no 
one  has  ever  been  known  to  resist,  and  a  lovely  grotesque  countenance  behind  which 
lurks  an  excellent  assortment  of  brains.  If  he  ever  had  time  to  seriously  go  after 
grades  he  would  give  our  eminent  corporation  scholars  a  run  for  their  money,  but  he 
is  so  interested  in  athletics,  members  of  the  ensemble,  and  the  exercise  of  his  truly 
remarkable  imagination,  that  he  can  find  no  spare  moments  in  which  to  crack  a  book. 
As  a  result,  he  is  progressing  steadily  backwards  and  expects  to  enter  the  Freshman 
class  next  year  with  a  P.  G.  at  St.  Lukes. 

Jim  early  won  recognition  as  the  best  man  on  the  rings  since  Doug  Waples.  He 
also  became  known  as  the  Terror  of  tlie  Mound  from  his  appallang  delivery  in  the 
box.  His  combination  of  dazzling  speed  and  utter  lack  of  the  requisite  control  made 
him  much  feared  by  the  unfortunate  willow  wielders  who  had  to  face  him.  Also, 
just  to  show  his  versatility,  he  sauntered  out  and  broke  the  college  record  in  the 
weights.  His  athletic  career  was  nicely  rounded  out  by  holding  down  a  berth  on 
the  football  team. 

When  not  athletically  engaged,  Jim  may  usually  be  found  parked  upon  his  medula 
oblongata,  discussing  any  subject  you  care  to  bring  up.  The  less  he  knows  about  it, 
the  better  he  likes  it,  for  he  isn't  hampered  by  a  lot  of  facts.  He  is  a  connoisseur  of 
pipes,  feminine  pulchritude  and  smooth  stimulants,  and  the  best  fellow  in  the  world. 
In  the  course  of  time  he  will  retire  to  his  feudal  estates  at  Blessing,  Texas,  and  there 
will  spend  the  remainder  of  his  days  surrounded  by  innumerable  bald-headed  little 
Pierces,  recounting  in  glowing  terms  the  glories  of  his  days  (and  nights)  at  Haverford.

"YOU      HEARD     ME     — 

THAT'S    FINAL! 


JOHN  DAVIES  REESE 
"Jack" 
"Noic  if  I  ircri-  only  kiiiy. — " 

Earh  in  our  Freshman  \ear,  the  Sophomore  chiss  found  in  our  midst — they  really 
didn't  find,  because  he  sho\\ed  himself — an  irreconcilable  among  irreconcilables.  who 
told  them  how  to  haze,  and  how  they  would  never  be  able  to  haze  one  person  in  par- 
ticular, which  person  was  J.  D.  Reese.  Thus  early  did  Jack  grow  out  of  that  bash- 
fulness  of  nature  with  which  he  had  been  endowed  at  birth,  and  soon  he  was  giving 
advice  to  quite  a  feu  people  on  how  to  do  quite  a  few  things — and  if  they  didn't 
listen.  .  .  we  refrain  to  describe  the  unholy  fate  that  descended  on  their  heads.  Jack 
will  be  mayor  of  Scranton.  if  he  goes  back  there,  or  of  New  \'ork,  if  he  happens  to 
go  there. 

Jack  early  impressed  upon  us  his  skill  as  a  mechanic,  and  it  u  as  one  of  the  sights 
of  our  campus  to  see  him  running  around  with  overalls  and  a  smudge  on  his  face 
from  the  bottom  of  Ned's  car.  It  is  rumored  that  the  car  now  runs  once  in  a  while — 
whenever  Jack  wants  it. 

The  biggest  m\stery  of  Jack's  life  is  his  apparent  mesmeric  control  over  Gunga 
Palmers,  the  noted  umpire  from  Vineland.  All  Jack  has  to  do  (ask  Jack,  he'll  tell 
you,)  is  to  whistle,  and  the  Dean  comes,  is  to  snap  his  fingers,  and  the  Dean  dances. 
In  fact.  Jack  sees  that  there  can  be  but  one  boss,  and  that  should  be  the  man  best 
fitted  for  the  job,  which  is,  namely,  J.  D.  R.  This  power  of  organizing  things  has 
stood  Jack  in  good  stead  as  manager  of  the  track  team  and  the  plav. 


alread\'  can    talk   learnedl\'   witii  Jimmie   on 
-even   Bug.  students.     We  feel  sure  that  he 


Jack   intends  to  study  medicine,  and 
subjects  beyond   the  ken  of  mortal  man- 
will  have  a  successful  career,  and  if  any  of  us  fall  ill  we  know  where  a  cure  awaits 
either  from  earthl\   pains,  or  joys.

CHRISTOPHER  ROBERTS 

"Chris" 

"Comfortably   u-rong.  vc'ith  the  great  majority." 

This  talented  possessor  of  half  the  mustaches  in  college  was  never  accused  of 
having  a  noble  brow  until  he  started  to  become  bald,  but  now  his  lofty  forehead, 
like  a  star,  beacons  amid  the  smoke  of  the  burning  discussion  turning  on  really 
important  topics  like  the  advisability  of  wearing  sweaters  to  lunch.  With  Kennie 
Oliver  and  Leuba  he  has  already  settled  all  the  great  problems  of  the  world,  and 
although  they  have  been  settled  differently  ever\'  time,  the  reall\'  vital  thing,  of  course, 
is  the  settlement. 

One  of  the  few  men  in  college  who  reads  anything  but  "The  Cosmopolitan"  and 
its  ilk  that  isn't  required  for  a  course,  it  is  not  surprising  that  Chris  leaped  early  to 
an  intellectual  prominence  in  our  midst,  which  position  he  cemented  in  Freshman  year 
by  various  essays  between  the  pine  trees  that  also  were  wont  to  fill  up  the  Uaver- 
fordian.  His  race  with  Chamberlin  for  the  profundity  cup  (on  which  Chamberlin 
already  had  two  legs)  was  declared  a  draw  on  account  of  the  fact  that  three  judges 
could  not  be  found  who  would  read  either  of  them.  He  also  won  the  awe  of  his 
classmates  who  used  to  be  periodically,  awakened  in  Ec.  class  by  Dollie's  polite  adjura- 
tion. "But  Roberts  is  ver\  radical."  Anybody  who  read  Henry  George,  and  who 
had  acquaintance  with  Veblen.  had  to  be  very  something. 

Chris  is  also  an  actor  of  no  mean  ability,  interpreting  a  prominent  role  in  "Mrs. 
Bumpstead-Leigh."  He  was  away  from  us  during  Junior  year,  running  nine-tenths 
(ask  him)  of  the  Red  Cross  in  France,  and  so  he  has  another  year  to  do  his  best  to 
raise  the  eclat  of  Haverford  from  his  incontestable  position  of  Lord  High  Intelligence 
among  the  Intelligentsia.

I  Think    the    policy 

IN    THIS     CASE 
SHOULD      BE  — 


FRANCIS  STOKES  SILVER 
"Fran" 

"/   don't   knoiv.    hut   I    think." 

At  great  expense  our  artist  lias  been  able  to  cop>  the  ancestral  coat-of-arms  of 
the  Silver  famil\ ,  an  owl  dormant,  and  it  is  whispered  that  the  first  of  this  noble 
race,  who  were  b\-  no  means  quick  Silvers,  had  adopted  the  further  characteristics  of 
their  patron  bird,  and  had  been  used  to  sit  still  and  say  nothing.  But  happily  this 
proclivity  has  been  remedied,  and  often  have  we  been  privileged  to  see  that  round 
face  rising,  those  thick  glasses  twinkling,  as  Fran  takes  the  floor  to  put  a  motion  which 
even  the  slow  Williams  has  already  incorporated  in  the  minutes,  or  to  inform  us  of 
something  of  which  everyone  was  perfectly  aware  before. 

It  is  an  interesting  parad(j\  that  Siher  is  one  of  the  fastest  runners  in  college,  and 
is  also  on  the  inside  in  the  get-rich-quick  Barclay  Store  profiteering  combination,  which 
was  formerly  incorporated  in  the  state  of  Missouri  by  Jesse  James.  Fran  is  captain 
of  the  track  team,  and  is  one  of  the  best  quarter  milers  the  Scarlet  and  Black  ever 
put  on  the  cinders.  He  was  football  manager,  held  down  the  managership  of  the 
cricket  team  last  year,  and  was  one  of  the  big  reasons  why  the  undergraduates  over- 
subscribed  their  Endowment   Fund  quota. 

In  his  spare  time  Fran  devotes  himself  to  the  thankless  job  of  setting  Gil's  feet  on 
the  straight  and  narrow,  and  to  making  up  for  any  lack  of  generosity  on  the  part  of  the 
child  of  his  brain,  'Fhe  Barclay  Stores  Corp.,  Inc.,  by  giving  awa\  advice.  He  amply 
makes  up.  His  faithfulness  not  only  to  the  college  and  his  work,  but  to  his  friends,  has 
been  rewarded  by  its  full  meeil  of  appreciation,  not  onl\  on  the  part  of  his  classmates, 
but  also  from  the  facultv.

'WHV    THE    

CAN'T      »/E      H^VE

THESE ■ 


ROBERT  BOYD  SMITH 
"Bob"  "R.  B." 


"M'htrc  in  h- 


Alt'jfjiKi  Ti 


R.  B.  is  the  only  one  of  our  three  young 
men  of  excellent  pith,  to  wliom  God  in  His 
mercy  gave  the  god-like  name  of  smith, 
who  has  survided  the  relentless  shears  of 
time  and  Gran't  Bib.  Lit.  to  graduate  with 
us.  Where,  oh  where,  are  the  Smiths  of 
yesteryear  ?  We  do  not  know  ;  but  we  do 
know  that  in  Bob  underneath  a  quiet  ex- 
terior there  is  a  depth  of  friendliness.  Bob 
is  the  rait  of  the  earth. 


We  predict  that  R.  B.  will  e.scape  all  the  rocks  proverbially  strewing  the  path  in 
married  life  ;  for  he  is  the  only  man  in  the  class  who  has  proved  his  ability  to  endure 
one  room-mate  through  four  years.  Of  course,  the  same  might  be  said  of  his  better 
half.  Branson  We  could  continue  to  decant  on  this  Damon  and  Phythias,  David  and 
Jonathan  relation  ;  but  we  leave  this  to  the  reader. 

Bob's  buffet,  though  perhaph  less  dazzling  than  the  Kinse\  Buffet,  was  more  ^e- 
tnittlirh  and  less  erratic.  We  can  think  of  R.  B.  in  no  other  way  than  en\eloped  in 
a  cloud  of  thick,  blue  smoke  arising  from  his  daily  twenty-fifth  load,  that  has  been 
stuffed  into  pipe  number  nine — you  remember,  the  one  with  the  globe-like  bowl, — 
ripping  his  coffee  and  pronouncing  on  the  shades  of  Lunt.  whom  in  lawyer-like  qual- 
ities Bob  much  resembles. 

Ever\one  who  saw  the  Senior  Woggle  Bug  game  brought  away  an  impression 
indelibly  stamped  on  the  consciousness  of  a  grim  hero  with  teeth  gritted  and  with 
an  unearthly  light  of  fiendish  animal  passion  fitfully  playing  over  his  mobile  counte- 
nance, responding  like  an  inspired  automaton  to  Eagle  Beak's  picaresque  signals.  This 
was  Bob.     Never  was  youth  more  dedicated  to  the  sacred  woggle  struggle. 

R.  B.  's  teleological  decision  has  been  made  ;  he  has  chosen  the  bar, — fortunately, 
in  these  da\s,  there  can  be  no  doubt  as  to  our  meaning.

JAMES  EDWARD  SUTTON 
"Jim" 

"  Yes,  sure." 

It  would  not  be  an  exaggeration  to  sa\  of  Jim  that  he  was  the  most  amiable  fellow 
in  our  class;  he  has  a  cheerful  word  and  smile  for  e\eryone,  and  would  rather  die  on 
the  spot  than  disagree.  Jim's  powers  of  agreeing  were  indeed  tested  to  the  full  Senior 
\ear  when  he  roomed  with  Jack  Reese,  whose  very  life  it  was  to  scrap  and  disagree; 
but  Jim  never  got  ruffled,  even  under  the  greatest  provocation,  and,  much  to  Jack's 
disgust,  consistently  refused  to  take  issue  on  an\  point  whatever. 

The  pride  of  Jimmies  life  is  his  flaxen  pompadour,  which  is,  parado.xically  enough, 
the  apple  of  his  eye.  Surely  no  sacred  white  elephant  was  ever  accorded  half  the 
devoted  attention  which  is  lavished  upon  that  sleek  adornment.  We  hesitate  to  predict 
the  consequences  should  it  become  disarranged. 

We  first  knew  Jim  as  an  Artillery  Lieutenant,  for  such  he  was  when  he  joined 
(jur  ranks  in  the  middle  of  Junior  year.  He  soon  won  a  position  in  the  Glee  Club, 
and  on  the  Track  Team,  and  established  himself  firmly  in  our  friendship.  Among 
us  he  was  one  of  the  staunchest  supporters  of  the  Y.  M.  C.  A.  and  the  principles 
for  which  it  stands — principles  which  he  sought  to  apply  to  the  everyday  affairs  of  life.

OLIVER  PARRY  TATUM 

"Taters" 

"Hoic   is   thtc.    brother f" 

Much  to  uLir  delight  we  were  joined  at  the  beginning  of  Senior  year  by  the  most 
humorous  member  ( this  statement  has  been  verified  by  Oliver  P. )  of  the  class  of 
1918.  This  noted  humorist,  then  a  Junior,  first  came  to  our  attention  when  we  as 
humble  "Rhinies"  beheld  with  awed  admiration  his  acrobatic  antics  and  fitful  flops 
on  the  stationary  steed.  Notwithstanding  our  amusement,  Taters  proved  a  valuable 
addition  to  the  gym  team  both  in  our  Freshman  \ear  and  the  present  one.  He  suc- 
ceeded in  gathering  enough  points  in  both  these  years  to  win  his  H.  G.  T.,  but  no  one 
as  yet  has  been  able  to  discover  whether  lie  placed  because  the  judges  took  pity  on 
him,  or  because  of  the  above  mentioned  fitful  flops. 

This  year  Taters  surprised  all  his  classmates  by  his  frequent  trips  to  town  accom- 
panied by  that  well  known  writer,  Harold  Brecht  and  members  of  the  fair  sex. 
Little  is  known  of  these  escapades  other  than  the  fact  that  every  other  day  the  two 
of  them  spent  six  hours  repairing  Tater's  good  old  Ford  after  each  two-hour  ride. 
It  is  rumored  that  Oliver  P.  always  refused  to  drive,  and  that  this  duty  descended 
about  our  friend  Hrecht  who  knew  as  much  about  driving  a  car  as  he  does  about 
swimming. 

^Ve  were  ail  glad  to  see  Taters  come  into  our  rooms  at  any  time  of  the  day  as 
he  was  sure  to  chase  away  the  "blues".  We  regretted  very  much  that  we  were  privi- 
leged to  have  him  as  classmate  for  onh-  one  year,  but  those  who  knew  him  best  made 
the  most  of  this.

"(\iii  you.  bend   tlmt!''' 

The)  say  tliat  a  Jack  of  all  trades  is  a  master 
of  none.  But  all  rules  have  their  exceptions,  and 
Toogie  is  the  greatest  little  exception  we  have  ever 
•een.  He  is  a  ALnster  of  All  Trades,  he  is,  in  fact, 
)ne  of  the  greatest  all-round  men  that  have  e\er 
trod  the  Haverford  campus.  He  is  an  athlete,  a 
iiuisician,  an  artist,  a  clever  writer  and  a  good 
dancer.  E\erything  that  he  has  attempted  he  has 
excelled   m. 


ICverything?  Well,  of  course,  smoking  is  not  so  much  an  achievement  as  it  is  a 
habit.  And  according  to  Jimmie  Pierce  one  must  have  an  amply  suppl\  on  hand  if 
one  wishes  to  become  a  good  smoker.  Not  to  have  a  good  supply  on  hand  one  must 
buy  one's  own  cigarettes.  So  you  see  that  Toogie  is  not  complying  strictly  with  the 
rules  of  the  game.     But  when  he  does,  just  watch  his  smoke. 

His  achievements  were  many,  in  spite  of  this.  Under  his  leadership  the  AL-indolin 
Club  attained  the  greatest  heights  yet  reached  by  any  Haverford  Club.  And  well  do 
we  remember  him  hurling  his  light  one  hundred  and  fifty  pound  body  against  the 
huge  Swarthmore  line  and  smashing  a  line  plunge  for  a  loss. 

But  these  are  past  history.  Toogie  is  at  present  the  only  living  ex-president  of 
our  class  who  is  president.  In  short,  he  has  been  returned  to  office.  And  this  fact 
alone  speaks  for  itself  as  to  his  ability  and  popularity. 

So  when  Toogie  becomes  an  efficient  smoker,  he  will  be  a  great  business  man  (  for 
all  good  business  men  are  good  smokers),  and  he  will  go  into  life  with  our  best 
wishes,  for  we  not  only  love  him  but  also  admire  him.

All  hands  agreed  that  Kinsey  suffered  an  irreparable  loss  to  its  social  prestige 
when  Perce  graduated  in  February.  Of  course  it  was  more  or  less  a  matter  of  form 
that  he  had  a  bed  in  his  room,  but  the  comforting  thought  that  one  who  even  techni- 
cally among  us  was  circulating  in  the  upper  strata  did  much  to  dispel  any  loneliness 
that  his  absence  might  otherwise  have  occasioned.  But  when  not  gi\ing  the  debs  a 
twirl,  Perce's  never-failing  amiability  permeated  the  entry  like  Jimmies'  oriental  in- 
cense, and  no  one  had  the  heart  to  be  crabby. 

If  the  War  hadn't  intervened,  Pop  would  have  graduated  with  18,  but  as  it 
was,  he  plunged  into  the  fray  and  emerged  with  a  commission  in  the  Field  Artillery 
and  a  very  knowing  air.  It  has  always  been  a  source  of  wonder  to  us  how  a  person 
who  persistently  flunked  Rittenhouse's  surveying  could  get  by  on  Fire  Control,  but 
that  is  neither  here  nor  there.  Suffice  it  to  say  ( this  phrase  used  by  special  permission 
of  and  arrangement  with  Dr.  Watson  )  he  joined  our  illustrious  gang  and  was  wel- 
comed with  open  arms  into  our  midst.  We  Were  very  glad  to  get  him  and  still 
sorrier  to  lose  him. 

Perce  was  a  devotee  of  tennis  and  cricket,  and  occasionall\  sallied  forth  to  circle 
the  track  in  his  winder  underwear.  \Vhen  the  cricket  team  went  to  Canada  last 
spring,  Perce  was  official  photographer  and  unofficial  banker.  Also,  he  was  one  of 
those  chosen  for  his  great  personal  beauty  to  adorn  the  front  row  of  the  Mandolin  Club. 

But  one  sinister  incident  mars  the  bright  record  of  his  sojourn  with  us.  Immedi- 
ately before  mid-\ears  the  young  lady  whom  he  fondl)  regarded  as  his  sweetie  an- 
nounced her  engagement  (to  somebody  else).  Pop  never  complained,  but  it  became 
increasingly  clear  that  he  was  consumed  by  a  great  sorrow.  It  was  the  beginning  of 
the  end  ;  he  passed  from  among  us,  greatly  beloved  and  respected.

SCHUYLER  CURTIS  V^AN  SICKLE 
"Heinz" 

"Let  us  bt'  fiic/aphysictil  iind  philosophize.'' 

Heinz.  B/irrtri  V^on  Sickle,  as  lie  would  probabl}  spell  it,  is  one  of  the  original 
members  of  the  North  Barclay  Wrecking  Crew,  the  South  Barclay  Wrecking  Crew, 
The  Bolshevik  Society,  and  the  Holy  Order  of  Elastic  Highlanders.  When  his 
weight)'  duties  on  these  numerous  societies  give  him  a  spare  moment,  he  devotes  it 
often  to  the  business  of  the  Student  Council.  His  high  position  has  not  saved  him, 
however,  from  frequent  expulsion  from  the  Ardmore  Movies. 

It  may  be  guessed  that  Heinz  is  a  radical.  He  subscribes  to  the  Liberator  and  the 
Springrield  Oval.  He  is  always  read\  for  a  revolution  except  when  he  wants  to 
stud\.  Among  his  most  unconventional  suggestions  is  that  of  lubricating  the  ke\-hole 
of  the  door  to  faciliate  the  entrance  of  professors. 

But  it  is  for  his  puns,  none  of  which  we  think  wise  here  to  reproduce,  that  Heinz 
is  truly  famous.  His  characterizations  are  classic.  We  wonder  what  he  would  say 
of  himself  if  he  saw  this  graceful  decendant  of  General  Schuyler  chasing  Bill's  other 
Bad  Alan  down  a  dimly  lit  corridor.  Probably  through  this  as  through  most  of  his 
other  remarks  the  censor  would  draw  a  disapproving  pencil. 

Ostensiblj  Heinz  is  a  misogynist,  but  we  suspect  that  his  frequent  trips  to  New 
V'ork  are  due  to  the  attractions  of  the  beautiful  actress  whose  pictures  decorate  his 
private  sanctvmi.  She  must  be  some  girl  for  never  have  the  famous  rounders  Kearney 
ami  Greer,  been  able  to  drag  him  to  their  favorite  hunting  grounds  at  Bryn  Mawr. 
We  wish  to  tender  a  friendl\'  word  of  ad\ice  to  the  damsel  if  her  persistent  chase  is 
successful — alwa\s  to  send  the  children  away  when  Schu\ler  is  working  on  his  latest 
historical  p roil uct ions.

Nineteen  twenty's  lone  representative  from  the  sunny  South  is  Joe  White.  Joe 
comes  from  North  Cyarolina  and  objects  ftrenuousl\'  to  the  snow  and  cold  weather  of 
the  Haverford  climate.  But  his  sunny  disposition  and  happy  smile  kept  him  pretty 
warm  even  in  the  coldest  weather.  His  stay  among  us  was  limited  to  Senior  year, 
since  he  entered  that  year  from  Guilford  College.  Guilford  has  the  reputation  for 
turning  out  ball  players,  and  Joe  did  his  part  nobly  in  helping  1920  to  win  the  baseball 
championship  this  Spring.  In  fact  from  the  very  beginning  of  the  year  he  took  an 
active  part  in  the  college  activities.  He  was  among  the  faithful  on  Merion  Field 
playing  soccer  in  the  Fall  and  played  basketball  for  the  Seniors  in  the  winter.  He 
made  himself  a  part  of  the  college  life  as  much  as  he  could,  soon  overcoming  the  three 
year's  headstart  of  the  rest  of  us. 

"Suping"  at  the  opera  had  its  charms  for  Joe  and  Tuesday  evenings  often  found 
him  upon  the  stage  at  Broad  and  Poplar.  There  are  some  rumors  about  his  being 
very  much  attracted  to  Geraldine,  but  we  cannot  speak  authoritatively.  In  the  Chem. 
Lab.  Joe  was  an  active  factor.  Chemical  rough-house  had  no  terrors  for  him,  wet 
sponges  flying  through  the  air  were  as  nothing.  A  ready  sense  of  humor  is  a  great 
asset,  and  he  certainly  has  that.  He  could  even  enjoy  Scup's  jokes  at  the  table.  There 
was  some  friend  at  Bryn  IMawr  who  claimed  some  of  Joe's  time  and  there  is  also 
the  story  of  his  sensibility  to  the  charms  of  six  southern  girls  to  whom  he  writes  once 
a  month.  In  order  to  keep  up  with  the  liberal  dance  program  of  Haverford  College 
he  took  up  the  gentle  art  of  dancing  and  we  understand  has  gained  great  proficiency 
in  a  short  time.  He  is  going  to  have  a  chance  to  continue  practice,  for  he  is  to  be  an 
assistant  in  Chemistry  at  Haverford  next  year.  We  are  mighty  glad  to  have  had  Joe 
as  an  addition  to  our  class  and  predict  success  for  him  as  a  teacher.

JOHN   STEELE  WILLIAMS 

"Johnnie"        "Eaglebeak  "Jack" 

"Thats'  a  good  joke." 
"I  bite."  "Gwe  an  isk." 

Ladies  and  Gentlemen,  kindly  refrain  from  feed- 
ing this  priceless  specimen,  as  he  has  lived  for  four 
years  on  college  food  and  is  consequently  unused 
to  nourishment.  He  has  the  visage  of  a  Spanish 
buccaneer,  the  intelligence  of  a  Dryden,  and  a  per- 
sonalitN'  like  a  stick  of  dynamite.  He  is  a  copper 
wire  in  the  sun,  a  cocktail  after  a  hard  day's  work, 
a  bright  spot  in  a  drab  and  uninteresting  world. 
He  has  raised  more  hell  than  any  other  seven  men 
in  the  class,  he  has  caused  the  ofHce  more  gray  hairs 
than  the  high  cost  of  living,  and  he  is  justly  beloved 
Q^    '  (\  in  proportion. 

lic-ini:  the  pos^e^()^  (if  a  startlingl\  profound  ami  re^onent  bass  voice,  John  gravitat- 
ed naturall\-  to  the  po.-ition  of  leader  of  the  Glee  Club,  and  also  capered  artfully  as 
Cheer  Leader.  Wherever  there  is  noise  there  is  Johnnie;  we  won't  go  so  far  as  to 
sa\  that  the  terms  are  synonomous,  but  nine  times  out  of  ten  the\  are  simultaneous. 
His  favorite  recreations  are  water  tights.  m\sterious  expeditions  to  parts  unknown 
with  Burritt,  and  luring  Jebb  into  his  famous  pronunciation  of  "Chemical  and  Metal- 
lurgical  Review". 

As  the  Illustrious  Lord  High  Chief  of  the  Purity  League,  John  made  the  name 
of  that  dread  organization  feared  and  respected  throughout  the  length  and  breadth 
of  Ardmore.  He  can  learn  more  with  less  effort  than  anyone  else  we  know  of,  and 
his  Hebraic  interpretations  are  little  short  of  masterly.  As  an  entertainer  and  ennui 
dispatcher  he  knows  no  rival. 

Johnny  is  disappr()\ed  of  by  the  faculty  (which  he  considers  a  compliment)  al- 
though more  than  one  of  them  are  great  admirers  of  his,  in  secret.  But  with  those 
of  us  who  know  the  real  worth  that  underlies  all  his  tomfooler\-,  there  is  a  feeling 
of  genuine  affection  for  good  old  Eaglebeak  and  we  love  him  like  a  brother.

FORCiOTTEN 
THY     RUBBERS 
FRAN." 


RICHARD  REEVE  WOOD 
"Dick" 

"Back  at  dear  old  li  csttoicn." 

In  spite  of  the  early  attempts  of  Westtown  to  pervert  Dick's  natLirally  moral 
tendencies,  he  was  not  so  thoroughly  corrupted  when  he  dropped  into  our  midst,  but 
that  an  extensive  course  under  the  North  Barclay  wrecking  cre\\-  served  to  fan  into  life 
those  embers  of  humanity  left  by  the  "dear  old  school".  Dick,  however,  never  thor- 
oughly overcame  the  peculiar  tendencies  of  dress  there  acquired  ;  pedestrians  on  Chest- 
nut street  still  stop  to  gaze  in  wonder  after  his  aeroplane  hat  and  h\droplane  shoes. 
In  general  contour  Dick  resembles  a  salt-cellar  for  were  it  not  for  his  arms  it  would 
be  difficult  to  discover  where  his  shoulders  began;  his  legs,  however,  leave  one  in  no 
such  doubt. 

Yet  to  these  very  legs  Haverford  ovv'es  many  a  point  in  track  and  many  a  punt 
in  soccer.  Dick  running  the  two  mile  is  a  sight  to  behold,  especially  a  posteriori 
from  which  point  of  view  his  opponents  usually  see  him.  He  gets  a  large  portion  of 
his  track  training  by  running  after  faculty  notes  for  the  Neii'.t.  Maybe  this  strangle 
hold  he  has  on  the  professors  offers  an  explanation  for  the  tenderness  with  which 
they  treat  him  on  his  report  sheets. 

But  tenderness  to  Dick  comes  not  only  through  his  professors.  His  fellow  stu- 
dents return  a  generous  proportion  of  affection  to  fatherly  old  Dick.  Dick's  fondness 
for  Math,  leads  him  frequently  out  second  St.  to  infinity,  where  it  meets  fifth,  and 
where  Dick  meets — more  affection.  If  Dick  settles  down  for  good  a  few  miles  this 
side  of  infinity  he  will  never  lack  many  friends  to  whom  to  give  his  hearty  welcome.

(The  biillieft  of  all   bull\'  scenes  from   Ifagenius  in  Tauris. ) 

Throwing  the  bull  is  now  a  major  sport  at  Haverford.  anil  counts  ti\e  points 
toward  Founders. — Author's  Note. 

ACT  I.     SCENE  ONE  AND  ONLY. 

No.  8  Chase  Hall.  The  first  bell  is  ringing.  The  Toreadors  stroll  in  and 
drape  themselves  gracefully  on  window  seats.  The  air  is  filled  with  chalk, 
erasers,  paper  airplanes,  and  the  desire  for  a  smoke.  Great  interest  is  dis- 
played in  the  activities  of  two  squirrels  on  the  Engineering  Building,  who  are 
probably  looking  for  (Ritten)  house.  At  the  four  minute  mark  watches  are 
produced,  and  the  path  is  an\iousl\  scrutinized  b\'  an.xious  e\es.  At  the  last 
peal  of  the  bell  the  Brown  Suit  hitches  into  sight,  and  Frank  enters. 

After  some  hesitation   the   class  sits  down,  e.xcept   for   Hoag  and   Tatuni, 
who   finish    their   jiu   jitsu    undisturbed. 

Frank.  ha\ing  called  the  roll:  All  here  but  Mr.  I.  C.  Lissett.  Now,  to  start 
the  ball  rolling  (deals  himself  a  new  hand  of  attendance  cards) — the  lecturer  for 
today  will  be  here  in  a  few  minutes.  Till  then,  the  class  may  do  whatever  it  pleases, 
but  I  ask  you,  as  red-blooded  Americans,  to  remember  that  there  are  other  classes  in 
the    building. 

Hoag  and  Tatum  resume  their  jiu  jitsu  where  they  had  left  off.  Williams  and 
Osier  prepare  to  roll  the  bones.  Enter  the  lecturer  from  rear,  dodges  eraser,  and 
slinks  into  Tatum  s  seat. 

tatuni,  retiring  to  his  corner  after  first  round,  sits  down  on  him. 

Tatum:    What  the  hell? 

Lecturer  (suddenly  remembering  important  engagement)  :  Beg  pardon,  must  be 
going.      (  Slinks  out,  again   dodging  eraser.) 

Frank  (  w  ho  during  previous  business  has  been  playing  solitaire  with  the  attend- 
ance cards)  :  Well,  I  guess  he's  not  coming.  To  keep  the  pot  boiling,  if  you'll 
pardon  a  vulgar  phrase  (class  registers  pardon,  e.xcept  Fergusson  and  Gucker,  who 
never  change  expression  anyway  )  although  it  ma\  be  carrying  coals  to  Newcastle,  1 
want  to  get  a  reaction  from  a  typical  group  of  college  men  on  the  concept  of  the 
Female  Offender. 

King    (  registering   mterest )  :     I   have  a  picture  of  one. 

Frank:  To  get  down  to  brass  tacks  (class  gets  down)  these  women  are  all  good 
lookers  in  the  slang  of  the  day.  One  of  these  women  owned  an  oil  well  in  a  certain 
Western  State  which  shall  be  nameless.  I  can  give  all  the  facts  of  the  case,  as  you 
won't  be  able  to  recognize  her. 

Silver   (interrupting)  :  Was  this  in  Oklahoma? 

Frank:  This  girl  skated  too  near  the  ice,  and  used  to  sit  on  the  lid  of  an  oil  well 
to  keep  it  off  the  market.     Now  the  plot  thickens.      It  was  a  matter  of  pushing  the 


Pai/e  One  Hundred  Fifty-five 


button,  and  letting  Nature  do  the  rest.  She  was  a  morally  free  agent,  and  I  under- 
stand the  man  took  silence  to  give  assent.  However,  in  Social  work,  we  mustn't 
burn  down  the  barn  to  kill  the  rats. 

Brecht  kicks  Morris'  chair  for  the  thirty-second  time. 

Morris   (turning):    I  got  it! 

Frank:  That's  the  whole  case  in  a  nutshell,  in  fact,  the  cream  of  the  situation. 
1  \x;uit  to  get  beneath  the  surface,  and  get  the  class'  opinion  on  this  case. 

Tatum    ( seriously )  :    Did  she  go   to  the  movies  often  ? 

Frank  ( referring  to  card  )  :  Now  that's  a  \ery  interesting  contribution.  I  see 
by  the  card  that  the  percentage  of  infant  mortality  in  Hoboken  is  greater  than  the 
norm  in  Kalamazoo — I  beg  your  pardon,  that's  the  wrong  card. 

Osier  petulantly  tears  up  chair  by  the  roots. 

Frank:  But  there  are  tricks  in  every  trade,  and  while  we  can't  go  by  rules  of 
thumb,  it's  been  so  ever  since  we  came  down  out  of  the  trees. 

Moore   (with  great  interest  I  :    Was  she  strictly  a  girl? 

Frank:  Now  that's  a  ver\-  interesting  contribution.  Now  that  the  ice  has  been 
broken,  the  question  before  the  house  is  the  proper  treatiuent  of  the  case. 

Silver  (  doggedly  )  :  I  read — uh — a  very — uh — interesting  article  recently  in  the 
uh — Ten  Story  Magazine — no,  I  think  it  was  the  Red  Book,  but  still  it  may  have 
been  the  Ten  Story  Magazine — about — uh — that  infant  mortality  in  Kalamazoo.    .    . 

Class   snores.      Curtain    falls,   while   fifteen   minutes    is   supposed    to   have   elapsed. 


SCENE  II.     (we  ch.axgkd  our  minds). 

Silver: which  proves  your  statement.  Dr.  Watson. 

Frank:  Now  that's  a  very  interesting  contribution,  but  I  was  saving  that  aspect 
of  the  problem  for  a  little  later  on  in  the  course.  But  for  people  whose  hearts  are 
stronger  than  their  iieads,  and  who  wear  out  shoe  leather,  burning  the  midnight  oil 
in  an  effort  to  solve  Social  questions  unscientifically,  I  think  we'll  see  that  there's  a 
fly   in   the   ointment. 

Sdver   (still   doggedly):    I   remember  now.  it  was  the  Red   Book. 

Frank  (from  force  of  habit)  :  Now  that's  a  very  interesting  con —  I  neglected  to 
mention  that  this  girl  was  a  low  grade  moron  from  Westtown  with  a  swollen  for- 
tune.    But,  of  course,  in  cases  like  these,  everyone  must  paddle  their  own  canoe. 

Class  paddles  vigorously. 

^Villiams   (aside  to  Osier)  :     Fhis  man   Barrie  certainly  could   write  plajs. 


Page  One  Hundred  Fifty-six 


Toogood   (aside  to  Fitts )  :    Does  this  look  like  Watson? 
Fitts  (a\Aakening  )  :    I  think  the  girl  was  to  blame. 

Prank:  Now  that's  a  very  interesting  contribution.  But  ue  coidil  discuss  this 
subject  till  crack  of  doom.  Take  it  for  what  it's  worth,  I  don't  see  how  anyone 
could  hoUi   that  and  be  reall\    intelligent.      I   know   I   don't. 

Hoag:    I   don't  see  that  that  proves  anything. 

Frank:  Now  that's  a  ver>  interesting  contribution.  We  have  some  Reds  here, 
I  see.     We  're  getting  to  the  meat  of  the  matter — 

Enter  I.  Lissett,  with  ofScial  air  and  documents.  Holds  secret  parley  with  Wat- 
son, who  looks  worried.     Hoag  and  Tatum  resume  jiu  jitsu. 

Mullin  awakes  and  walks  out,   under  the  impression   that  the  class  is  over. 

Frank:  Any  red-blooded  American  that  wants  to  work  on  the  railroad  during 
the  strike  ma\    leave  now. 

Class,  with   the  e.xception  of  Harris,   leaves   without  more  ado. 

Frank  (reshuffling  cards,  deals  a  hand,  draws  two,  and  finishes  lecturing  to  Har- 
ris.    His  \  oice  is  heard,  as  curtain  descends  slowly)  :    Now  to  keep  the  pot  boiling —

Of  all  the  exclusive  organizations  that  ever  graced  the  long  record  of  human 
pretensions,  perhaps  none  has  boasted  a  more  rigid  system  of  entrance  requisites  than 
our  most  illustrious  guild — the  Cuckoo  Club.  What  trial,  what  test,  what  ordeal, 
can  surpass  in  startling  qualities  the  un\ar\  ing  requirement  that  every  member  of 
this  distinguished  body  shall  at  some  time  have  undergone  a  period  of  mental  aberra- 
tion resulting  from  violent  contact  between  some  eternal  object  and  the  cerebellum? 
As  \Vallace  Irwin  says,  "Answer  is — none."' 

In  this  verv  point  lies  its  strength:  fur  when  one  has  once  undergone  the  expeii- 
ence  of  being  Cuckoo,  there  immediately  arises  in  one's  bosom  such  a  companion 
feeling,  so  warm  a  sympathy  for  all  other  Cuckoos,  that  nothing  in  this  vale  of  sor- 
rows can  dispel  it.  The  Cuckoos  are  bound  by  a  tie  closer  than  blood  relationship 
closer  than  the  love  of  man  for  woman,  for  verily  everyone  of  them  is  a  Graduate 
Nut — and  of  the  love  of  one  nut  for  another  nothing  need  be  said — greater  love 
hath  no  man. 

The  personnel  of  the  Cuckoo  Club  is  so  limited  that  space  permits  of  mention 
of  each.  At  the  head  of  the  organization  in  an  ex  officio  capacity  is  Mudhen  Emeri- 
tus Rufus  M.  Jones,  who  was  elected  in  special  session  immediately  after  his  lecture 
on  Free-will,  in  the  course  of  which  it  was  revealed  in  what  striking  manner  he  had 
in  years  past  slipped  upon  the  ice  and  fallen  upon  his  head,  as  a  result  whereof  he  was 
cold  for  an  extended  period  and  incapacitated  for  two  years. 

Next  the  two  Mudhens,  Macintosh  and  Toogood,  each  of  whom  was  tapped  on 
the  head  on  the  field  of  battle.  Crosman,  Carey,  Osier,  Kearney,  Sangree  and  Arrow- 
smith  all  owe  their  membership  in  like  manner  to  the  gentle  game  of  football.  Al 
Hisey  disputed  the  right  of  way  with  a  baseball,  and  Burritt  staged  a  high  dive  upon 
the  gymnasium  floor  in  the  heat  of  a  basketball  game.  The  baby  of  the  organization 
is  Ike  Lycett.  who  failed  in  an  ill-considered  attempt  to  prove  that  his  head  was 
harder  than  the  icy  sidewalk.     He  is  now  serving  as  chaplain.

A  question  was  but  recently  discussed,  which  is  of  vital  importance  to  the  society. 
It  was  proposed  that  persons  be  admitted  who  are  by  nature  qualifietl  to  fill  the 
requirements,  the  contention  beiny;  that  emphasis  should  be  placed  (jn  the  results,  not 
on  the  method  of  attainment.  The  sponsor  of  this  proposed  amendment  advanced 
several  names  at  the  same  time  for  immediate  action.  Although  the  candidates 
(Pierce,  Williams,  and  Jebb )  were  felt  to  be  quite  acceptable,  personally,  the  general 
consensus  of  opinion  was  set  firmly  against  any  lowering  of  the  present  high  standards 
of  admission.     The  proposition  was  therefore  rejected. 

As  Marcus  Aurelius  so  aptl.\  remarked,  though  many  are  called,  hut  few  hold 
a  pat  flush,  and  it's  the  learner  that  pays  and  pays  and  pays.  In  any  event,  the  few 
that  ha\e  been  called  in  our  quaint  circle  have  just  cause  to  feel  a  pardonable  pride  in 
their  unique  distinction,  and  at  that,  there  is  small  chance  of  lots  if  the  chips  are 
covered  well.  So  it  is  with  the  utmost  confidence  that  the  Cukoo  Club  contemplates 
a  future  rich  in  its  promise  of  ever-increasing  glor\  and  renown  and  that  position 
of  eminence  which  it  must  ine\itably  assume  among  the  great  confederations  of  the 
world.

Gathered  from  the  distant  waterfalls 
or  generated  by  the  steam  turbine, 
electric  power  is  transmitted  to 
the  busiest  city  or  the  smallest 
country  place. 

Throuph  the  co-ordination  of  inventive  genius 
with  engineering  and  manufacturing  resources, 
the  General  Electric  Company  has  fostered  and 
developed  to  a  high  state  of  perfection  these 
and  numerous  other  applications. 
And  so  electricity,  scarcely  olderthan  the  grad- 
uate of  today,  appears  in  a  practical*  well  de- 
veloped service  on  every  hand. 
Recognize  its  power,  study  its  applications  to 
your  life's  work,  and  utilize  it  to  the  utmost 
for  the  benefit  of  all  mankind.

^Careful  comparison  and  the 
test  of  actual  service  have 
fully  demonstrated  Straw-

for  which  this  same  measure 
of  quality  and  reliability  can
