DR. R\RRT J. PATTERSON^

^gi^^ _jj-^ iir^";!";!^^^^^!^!

R. HARRY J. PATTERSON was born at Yellow Springs, Penn-
sylvania, December 17, 1867. His father, William Calvm Patterson,
and his mother, Adaline ( Mattern ) Patterson, lived on their farm
for three years after Harry's birth, at which time the father was
called to the State College of Pennsylvania, and at once took up
his abode there. For years he was Superintendent of Buildings and Construction,
and left there a heritage of good will and devotion to dutv that makes the name
Patterson a favored one at that institution.

The son attended the common schools of the town until, as a boy of sixteen,
he entered the college. The State College Annual, "La Vie," of 1906, in a section
devoted to noted alumni, says of him:

"Among the earlier Alumni in what we call the more modern period of the
institution, Harry J. Patterson, of the Class of 1886, is a typical representative.
Of Pennsylvania birth and ancestry, he was the sort of young man for which
the college was established. He was but a boy when he came into this neighbor-
hood to live, hence he entered college quite young, took the full agricultural
course, and graduated before he was twenty years old. Chemistry, in its relations
to agriculture appealed to him more strongly than any other line of work. In
this he served his apprenticeship here ; then removed to the ^^laryland Experiment
Station, whose chemist he was for ten years. Since that time he has been director
of the Experiment Station, and has been actiA'ely interested in the development
of Maryland agriculture.

"The situation and varied interests of this State have made the position an
important and exacting one. How ably it has been filled is well shown by the
length of his occupancy and high commendation he has received from many
quarters. He has taken an active interest in the farming and gardening opera-
tions throughout the State, freciuently appears at Farmers" Institutes and other
gatherings and is now Master of the State Grange.

"He is a member of all the leading Chemical Societies, of the Society for
the Promotion of Agricultural, and Fellow of the American Association for the
Advancement of Science. Besides all this he finds time to pay some attention
to outside business and is a director of The First National Bank of Hyattsville,
Maryland. Dr. Patterson is a frequent visitor at his Alma Mater, where his
parents still reside, his father being our well-known and esteemed Superin-
tendent of Grounds and Buildings."

Since 1906 his notoriety has increased and he is now a n:ember of all lead-
ing societies of the State and of some of the national and international as well.

He is a member of The vSociety of Chemical Industries of London and of the
Maryland State Board of Agriculture.

In December, 1913, he assumed his duties as President of the Maryland
Agricultural College, which position he now holds.

To his success a beautiful home life added most materially. In 1895 he
married Elizabeth Hayward Hutchinson, an intellectual and vigorous woman, who
has proven an excellent home builder and help-mate. They have one son and
one daughter.

Dr. and Mrs. Patterson take an unusually direct interest in the student life,
entertaining often, and making their home a center of whole-souled merry-
making. That some might not at hrst think it, because of his c|uiet manner, Dr.
Patterson enjoys society hugely. But we are allowing our pen to tell of things
which should be left to the character sketch below.

The biography of a man should be chronicled in a dispassionate manner.
An appreciation should, however, express the prevailing opinion sincerely and
fully, without fear of being branded as an exaggeration.

The above statement is made because the life of Dr. Harry ]. Patterson is so
full of personal and character element that it overshadows the mere recital of the
events with which the usual short biography is concerned.

Dr. Patterson is a man of broad sympathies. He feels no class distinctions
and is ambitious for the betterment of all, frowning upon everything that would
tend to exploit one group for the benefit of any other. From the most noted
man he meets, down to the humblest workman, he is recognized as a fellow
spirit. If any barrier toward freedom of intercourse exists in the imagination
of the stranger, it disappears at once under the influence of his gracious smile
and simple, hearty greeting, with the result that the stranger is put at his ease
and the way paved for a pleasant meeting. And whatever may be the quest of the
visitor he is sure of a fair hearing. Though a man of strong convictions, Dr.
Patterson is always willing to set aside his preconceived opinions and to give full
consideration to the contentions of others. Narrowness and prejudice seem for-
eign to him. He reserves judgment until the evidence is all in, and judges no
one harshly from partial or biased report.

But do not understand by this that he hesitates to take a definite stand. He
is an opponent feared by those who have crossed him, for they have found behind
his gracious and kindly manner, a man of determination who is willing to fight
for his convictions. And absolute honesty and integrity are cardinal principles
whose weight and worth are always on his side.

But many men who are cosmopolitan in their sympathies, companionable
with all whom they meet, firm in their convictions and honest in their dealings,
yet lack a trait which makes our President rather an exception among ambitious
men. Though full of dreams and plans, they are all for others. Unselfishness

and utter lack of egotism make him far more inclined to sacrific his personal
advancement than are the common rvm of men. He is of the patient type who
believes that merit will be eventually recognized and who accordingly devote their
time to increasing their worth allowing advancement to come of its own sweet will.
Thus when called to the Presidency of the College he accepted only after being
repeatedly urged to do so. His hesitancy was due to the feeling that he was not
well qualitied for the task. In this day and age it is a wonderful privilege to
acccuse a man of undue modesty and under-appreciation of himself, yet we now
have that pleasure. His constructive work already done, and still more, the steps
taken toward the future development of the College, prove that he has the execu-
tive ability and the vision which are needed to bring the College to the people
and the people to the College.

Dr. Patterson shows his religion in his daily life by following the teaching
of Him in whom he declares his faith. As in other things he shows no i^rejudice
or narrowness as concerns denominations and creeds. Reared a Methodist he
really throws his influence to St. Andrew's Episcopal Church in College Park, and
with his family, may be seen regularly at its services. He conceived and brought
to fruition the first Inter-denominational Conference of Ministers ever held in
Maryland and has given an impetus to everything that makes for co-operation
and for the strengthening of church life.

Today he stands, a man with vision, looking at the agricultural ])ossibilities
of the State, its undeveloped resources in soil and climate and, still more, its
boys and girls who hold the future of the State in their grasp ; and, further, he
sees coming from every comir unity young men and young women bent upon know-
ing more about scientific agriculture and domestic science. He sees them troop-
ing in a thousand strong, enthusiastic and full of hope that somewhere in the
broad acres of the campus, in the new and up-to-date buildings, now growing
yearly in number, in the laboratories, the library, the college activities and by
the student lamp, they will learn the secrets of nature and the friendship of the
fairies of the soil that will enable them not only to make two blades of grass
grow where one grew before, but to make two ])eals of laughter ring out where
one could scarce sound out before. He sees this and calls upon the State to
catch the vision. He sees the College as an instrument of the State in advancing
the material welfare of all by turning out graduates with imagination fired by
practical ideas for betterment, men and women prepared for leadership and im-
bued with the idea that "The pleasures of life come from work well done." To
this man of dreams, with his quiet cordiality, unassuming manner and whole-
soled optimism, we dedicate the RevFjllK of 1915. May his worth be increasingly
appreciated. May every Marylander feel the urge of his ideal and help him con-
vert his air castles into, a Gymnasium, Chemistry, Agricultural, and Dormitory
Buildings, dotting our campus with humps of leaven that shall work mightily
for Maryland.

HERSCHEL FORD

Died MarcK 3rd, 1915

.r'. trHc- v..

'S' uiw

HE past scholastic year witnessed the departure from us of one
of our most trusted and valued friends. Mr. Herschel Ford, for
five years Treasurer of our College, passed away on March 3rd,
1915, his death being due to heart and kidney trouble.

Mr. Ford was 43 years old and a native of Fairmount, Som-
erset County, Maryland.

After graduating from the public school of his native town, he entered
Wilmington Academy at Dover, Delaware. From there he entered Dickinson
College and received his degree of Doctor of Philosophy.

After receiving his degree he, for a time, taught school in his native State.
Later he studied law at the University of Maryland, and in due course was
elected to the State Legislature from Somerset County. After serving a term
in the Maryland State Legislature he was appointed as Treasurer of M. A. C.

Throughout his term as Treasurer of the College, Mr. Ford has time and
again proven his worth.

At many critical moments in the history of our College he showed his
remarkable ability to steer us clear of financial difficulties. Too much credit
cannot be given him for his straightforward and upright business methods.

Mr. Ford was a true hearted and a whole hearted gentleman. He always
had a thought for the welfare of others. Thus he soon found a place in the
hearts of the students, a place which he will still continue to occupy even
though he has gone to rest.

That Mr. Ford was a very religious man we all know well. When, on
the bed of death, he could say, and did say, that in all his life he endeavored
to do his Maker's will. Not once was he known to utter a word disrespectful
to religion and often had he stood up in its defense.

Mr. Ford had become steadfastly intrenched in the hearts of all the stu-
dents of M. A. C. and it was a sad blow to see our beloved friend leave us.
By his kindness and consideration for others he had become generally known
as a friend to all. And although Mr. Ford had been seriously ill for weeks,
and the doctors had entertained little hope for his recovery, yet the shock of
his death caused many an eye to be dimmed as the body of our dear friend
was carried from the chapel.

He was buried at Fairmount, Somerset County, Maryland,

The entire student body in a battalion formation escorted his remains to
the station and there with bowed heads they saw their most trusted friend
depart.

Bv Presidknt Patterson.

S the time for publishing the 1915 REVEILLE approaches, it reminds us
that another College year is about completed, and that it would be
well to make a survey and inventory of the year's accomplishments.
A very few hopes have been realized ; many ambitious and
promising plans have failed so far, to either flower, or fruit, and
only a limited number of the many needed changes have been accomplished.

The Graduating Class of 1915 and the total enrollment for die year, is the
largest in the history of the M. A. C. Unfortunately larger numbers bring a
deirand for enlarged accommodations, and additional equipment. The funds to
supply these have not been available ; consecjuently, many departments are much
crowded.

The completion of "Calvert Hall'" has in i)art, overcome one of the disasters
of the fire of 1912. and provides a first class dormitory for the accoirmodation of
a [portion of the students.

The new range of ten green houses with laboratories attached has provided
for the expansion of the horticultural work, and, at the same time, has relieved the
crowded condition of Morrill Science Hall.

The work of the College has been organized into five separate divisions,
namely: 1, Division of Agronomy and Animal Husbandry; 2, Division of Horti-
culture ; 3, Division of Applied Sciences ; 4, Division of Rural Economics and
Sociology, and 5, Division of Engineering. While some of these divisions are
small, yet they should ultimately bring a development that would raise them to
the dignitv of schools. This ste]^ should also set clearly before the public the scope
of the work of M. A. C, and show that this institution stands for a type of
education not given at any other institution in Maryland.

Two new four-year courses have been added ; namely, the course in Agricul-
tural Education for training agricultural teachers, and a course in Canning,
for the purpose of training n^en as experts in the sciences as they apply to that
important industry.

A short, or one week's course in Road Making has been inaugurated by the
Engineering Division.

A summer school for teachers of rural schools was begun this year; it was
attended by forty-three students representing sixteen counties in Maryland, and
the District of Columbia. In the sumimer school work, particularly emphasis
was given to the correlation of agriculture, domestic science and' nature study,

with the subjects usually taught in the rural schools. The 1915 summer school
will offer three grades of work, viz.. Elementary. A'ocational and College Credit
courses.

The Department of Agricultural Education, in co-operation with the State
Board of Education, and the U. S. Department of Agriculture, has in prepara-
tion a series of personal lessons in agriculture, to be issued in nine parts, corre-
sponding to the nine months of school. The lessons show how agriculture can be
correlated with the teaching of composition, history, physical geography and
arithmetic.

(Jur professor of Agricultural Education has been appointed by the State
Board of Education, Supervisor of Agricultural Instruction in the high schools
of the State. This will co-ordinate the work of the high schools with the work
at this institution.

'I'he year has been marked by the organization of a College and Experiment
Station Extension Service, whose duty will be to take the work of these institu-
tions out. and deironstrate them to the people of the State.

The activities of the Athletic Department have been crowned with signal
success. This department stands in great need of a building for its full develop-
ment, and to enable it to give the physical training that will insure a strong
body for the trained mind.

The religious life of the College during the twelve months has shown a
marked activity. The triumi)hant canvass of the Y. M. C. A. for membership,
which placed this institution at the head of the list in Maryland, should be counted
of no less importance than the victories on the Athletic held. This association
should be encouraged, and given every opportunity to kee]) pace with the growth
of the College in the future, and thus be made the factor for carrying out the
desire of the College as set forth in that part of the preamble of the original
charter which states: "That in addition to the usual courses of scholastic training,
particularly indoctrinate, the youth of Maryland, theoretically, and practically, in
those arts and sciences which, with good manners and morals, shall enable them
to subdue the earth, and elevate their State to the lofty position its advantages of
soil, climate, etc., and the moral and mental capacities of its citizens entitles it
to attain."

In August there was held under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. a Country
Life Conference for rural n^inisters. This was attended by 140 ministers, and
50 or 60 laymen. The ministers were the guests of the College for three days.
They roon^ed in the dormitory and. ate in the mess hall, which enabled them to
renew the s])irit of their college days. Those in attendance manifested much
interest and enthusiasm in the conference, and they carried away with them not
only the visit of a broader field of work for the rural church, but also a better
knowledge of the activities of the Y. M. C. A., which should be nuUually helpful
for years to come.

During this college year the ownership of the college property passed wholly
into the hands of the State. This makes the Maryland Agricultural College the
only College in Maryland owned by the State, and should make the people of the
State feel a particular pride and obligation to see it placed in the front rank of its
class. Though the ownership has changed, may those charged with the manage-
ment of the institution never forget the scope of the work and ideals outlined by
its founders.

May the Maryland Agricultural College ever have for its purpose the training
of men to live in Maryland a life of usefulness and power, to gain here a liveli-
hood sufficient for comfortable and generous living; men with power and grace
to add to community life, those elements of intelligence and virtue which give a
State stability and worth ; men of large obligations to the world ; men who will
assume large duties and carry them to successful conclusion.

This means that there must be an M. A. C. stamp as unmistakable as the
inscription on the coinage of the Nation.

This institution may not equal others in the number of students, or in the
value of its equipment, but it need stand second to none in the earnestness, devo-
tion, si)irit and courage which i)ut into the college work, and into life's work
after leaving college. Greatness must not be confused with size, or worth with
show.

The future is in the hands of time ; but that this College may continue to
grow and that these ideals may be realized through the development of the present
good feeling and spirit of the student body must be the wish of every friend
of M. A. C.

ITH the passing of another year in the life of the M. A. C, we
have witnessed a continued rapid expansion in its functions as a
State-wide influence. Neither has its Alumni Association been
l:)ackward in recognizing the opportunities that lie before it as an
Institution of service to the people of the State. As it grows in
power and prestige, every Alumnus is coming to realize that, althougli years
may have passed since his graduation days, he is still an integral part of the
College and its influence. He is no longer an isolated man sent out from
his x\lma Mater to fight his way singly in making his individual success and
in paying his debt to the community. No matter what calling he may have
taken up, so long as he remains within the State, he is bound to feel that into
whatever community he may go, the old College on the Hill is reaching out
into its life, giving it new inspirations and strengthening him in his efl'orts
to make it a community more worth while.

The Alumnus of today realizes that whether he is going to be an engineer,
a farmer, a teacher, an investigator or pursue his scholastic studies further, he
goes out with an obligation upon him to extend the usefulness of the Institu-
tion as a community influence and by remaining in close touch with its faculty
and field w^orkers, maintain a connecting link that will back his own activities
and strengthen his hands in what he has to do. He recognizes that his Alma
Alater no longer confines its interests to the teaching of the comparatively
few individuals who are fortunate enough to be enrolled as students. He
realizes that it is touching from day to day an increasingly larger number of
individuals. He sees it reaching the farmer, by bringing to him scientific agri-
cultural teaching in the form of neighborhood short courses and farmers
institutes, and by demonstrating in his own community and on his own farm
better methods of production on a practical scale. He sees this influence about
to reach the women of the State through the activities of a system of house-
hold teaching much the same in character as that supplied the farmer. He
sees it reaching the young people of the country and city through the trammg
of its students for industrial teaching in special courses planned to serve this
end. He sees it co-operating with the State Board of Education in giving a
country life trend to our instructors in the rural schools of the State. He sees it
touch in one way or another every class in the community. The rural ministers
and the ministers from the city alike are more vital and effective from con-
tact with the influence of the Agricultural College. Every man and woman
is the stronger for its help and influence — the men and women who build our
roads, who do our banking, who till our farms, who keep our households,
who train our children, who make our laws, who minister to our spiritual and
physical needs— every one, indeed, who is concerned with the community

life of Maryland. It is this realization that the graduate of today and the
alumnus of tomorrow must bear in mind. It is the realization as well to which
those who are already members of the Alumni Association have fully
awakened^that and the further realization that they are the centers througnh
which this influence must largely spnead, through which an understanding of
the needs and purposes of the Greater M. A. C. must come.

It is up to them to carry into efl:'ect the purposes of the founders of the
Land Grant College — to give to the people of the State with whom they come
in contact, an understanding that the Maryland Agriculural College is an
institution that ofl:'ers a broad training for citizenship in every industrial pro-
fession open to young men in this State — that it was instituted to fill a definite
and universal need of our people. In the words of Justin Morrill, "The son
of a farmer or of a mechanic who desires a liberal education preparatory to
a similar vocation or to some dift'erent one from that of his father should
be able to find it in the Land Grant College of his State, and should not be
subjected to the inconvenience and expense of seeking fur it in a distant State.
The sons of the State, for which they have an ineradicable birth-right afifec-
tion, have some right to receive, some duty to accept, within its home borders
that instruction which will l)e of the hig-hest utiliy."

Furthermore, now that it has become entirely State property, by virtue
of the foreclosure sale of the private stockholders' undivided half interest,
September 2^, 1914. the Maryland Agricultural College looks even more than
in the past to the active support of its Alumni for its future development and
usefulness throughout the State. It has reached an epoch-making period in
its history and in the development of the industrial life of the State — a period
when the organization of its Alumni into live and influential associations
seems both logical and imperative in their own interests as well as that of
the Institution.

To this end, we should respond whole heartedly and as a unit to the ap-
peal of the President of our Alumni Association, R. M. Pindell, "Love and
gratitude, without an accompanying sense of duty, are impossible, and the
duty of the Alumnus to his Alma Mater is strong and binding in proportion
to his possession of those finer characteristics that we find in the man wt)rth
while."

If we recognize and fulfill that duty, the College will grow and prosper; if
we forget the debt we owe, it loses in dignity, in importance and in usefuhiess.
Let us take pride in the appreciation that ours is the leading part in the building
of a monument to ourselves and to the State. Let us assume the responsibility
for the future M. A. C, and in assuming that responsibility, at this time, when
she is suing for that support which must be forthcoming, that she may take her
proper place among the educational institutions of the land, let each man answer
"HERE" to the roll-call of duty.

HE REvEillK is a lens through which to secure a clearer view of
M. A. C. At times it is advisable for the student body to analyze
its environment and itself in order to secure a firmer foundation
upon which to build "M. A. C. spirit."

Let us first consider those to whom we are responsible — the
Faculty. As a whole, we believe our instructors are doing the best they can,
considering the amount of work they have to do. However, what is most needed
in the class room is not merely instructors who hear recitations or discuss unim-
portant topics, but men who are suggestive teachers. We are aware of the mani-
fold duties our instructors have to perform, but, yet, we believe they are unduly
absent from classes at times. We further believe that there is an unnecessary
duplication of work which could be easily avoided if the courses were systemat-
ized. We would suggest that the deans require a more definite outline of the
courses of study as given by their assistants. Then, too, it seems as if our courses
of study are not as well organized as they should be ; that they do not show
a fitting psychological sequence ; that they do not allow enough of electives ; and
that they aim to cover too much ground in a limited time. As we go out from
our iVlma Mater as citizens of this and other States, heavy demands are being
made upon us, and in return, it seems but right that we should expect more from
those who make them.

In connection with our college work, we believe that the passing grade should
be raised several points higher; that the faculty should be more strict in the en-
forcement of its rules and regulations ; that when a student fails to pass any
final examination, due to his own shortcomings, that he be required to repeat
the course. Finally, our college course is a business proposition and we would
suggest that the present method of removing conditions be abolished, as an incen-
tive for better work.

Regarding our college life, we urge that more sanitary conditions be main-
tained with reference to the water supply ; that proper lights be provided in class
rooms and on the campus; in a word, that the same interest be manifested in our

physical well-being as is taken in our spiritual welfare. We realize that the
college has limited means of support, but we feel that money will be well invested
when used in improving the walks, removing the ruins of the old buildings, and
in improving the campus in general.

In reference to our moral atmosphere, we believe that M. A. C. should be
made a co-educational institution. We believe that the very presence of ladies in
our classes would raise our standards of morality and in the end help us to live
a cleaner social life.

Furthermore, we are aware of our own faults. Under the present system
of holding examinations, cribbing is popular and is at a maximum. We do not
believe that cheating can be prevented. We do believe, however, that if we were
put absolutely on our personal responsibility in all our work, the plane of student
honor would be materially raised. Wliatever we seem to be, our purpose is to
develop the best that is in us.

M. A. C. is a different kind of college. To the open country and to Nature
does she owe much, but to the democratic spirit of her sons, to their desire to be
of service, and to their ability to do things, does she owe more, ^^'here others
are prepared to lead, M. A. C. is prepared to follow. Considering her environ-
ment and influence, we believe that in the next decade she will be the leading
State collegfe of the South.

UNE has come, and at last v\e are forced to realize that now after
four years of faithful companionship and brotherhood we must
disband and enter upon the great battle of life.

In September, 1911, about tifty "ambitious" ? "intelligent" ?

and "determined"" ? fellows asseirbled in the old halls and were

finally organized into the Class of '13, being escorted by numbers of paddles,

bayonets, etc. All of this noble fifty were "old boys,"" having served their

apprenticeship as "rats"" the year before.

Everything went well and quiet with our noble half-hundred, owing largely
to the fact that our number greatly exceeded that of the ever watchful "Sophs."'
We called a class meeting, elected our class officers toward the latter part of the
year, and after various ingenious arguments elected A. W. Meyers, President ;
F. J. McKenna, \'ice-President ; C. E. Robinson, Secretary-Treasurer; A. W.
Meyers, Historian. Then, too, we had manifested much interest in athletics and
had done much to make every branch of M. A. C."s athletics a success.

This was all very pleasing but we anxiously and impatiently looked forward
to the time when our long anticipated hopes would be realized and we would be
able to call ourselves "Sophs.""

W hen the class assembled for its' first meeting as Sophomores the roll call
showed that two of our members had dropped out. The first business transacted
was to organize a reception committee whose purpose was to make the "rats"
feel at home ( ?). These committees were very successful in their efforts. (The
writer knows because he was a Sophomore "rat"" at that time). Most of our
social affairs during the year were in the nature of "rat-meetings"" and "broom -
fights," all for the entertainment of the homesick "rat.""

It was during November of this year that the dormitory buildings were
destroyed by fire. Several members of our class were at the dormitory at the
time of the fire and rendered most valuable assistance in fighting the fire, delaying
it long enough for other college mates to save much valuable property.

The manner in which our class held together after this lamentable catastrophe
pointed to a successful organization in our remaining two years. The class was
guided by the following officers during this year :

A. H. MassK V President

J. E. Rowland rice-President

F. J. McKknna 'Secretary

C. E. RoiHNSoN Treasurer

R. P. W'KST Historian

September lOth was not long in coming, and after being assigned to our
.various boarding houses, we retired until the morrow. The next day was a
(lay of hand-shaking and merry-making for all concerned.

Everyone had wonderful stories to relate about broken hearts and thrilling
episodes and several even said that they had toiled: during the summer. Those
fabricators were quickly tilted with a 1-2-3.

We were no longer Sophs, so it was up to us to fill that happy medium
between the care-free and fri\olous Soi)homore, and the studious, digniiied
vSenior.

( Jur noble President joined us later in the year and he also had wonderful
tales to relate about the wild and woolly ^Vest. Of course when "Pete" arrived
class meetings had to be held and we then started to arrange for tlie Junior Prom.
This was to be a great event, and also to outrival an\- Proni. thar had e\er been
held at M. A. C.

xA.fter watchful waiting and man)' restless nights, the 20th of February rolled
around, and it was "some" dance. It was a beautiful night and the moon shone
on a shroud of snow that coveredi mother earth, thus adding beauty on the
outside to correspond to the beauty inside.

Then the aftermath. Some one removed trees to decorate the auditorium,
and some one received a bill. Ten dollars for some measly trees — not us! But
we finally decided that we were to blame, so our honorable Treasurer wrote out
a check and the trees, by change of title "a la IJommy," belonged to us. Of
course the trees could not be used by us, so they were finally distributed among
the poor of Washington for firewood.

From February to A])ril was a dull and quiet term on account of Lent.
No dances to go to, and of course we wouldn't go to shows or movies during
the Lenten season.

spring soon rolled around, and between baseball, track and lacrosse, we
had something to pass the time away. Then came the month of June, that warm,
fair and beautiful creature, and after exams, the Faculty treated us to a dance,
the junior and Senior German. Another of our fond hopes realized, and still
another not far away.

Several more class meetings, and on class night, the night upon which
we took our obligations and responsibilities as Seniors, the following officers
announced for the term of 1914-'15, to replace the retiring officers, who were:

P. N. Peter President

A. H. MassEv Vice-President

F. J. McKenna Secretary

C. E. Robinson Treasurer

\\. E. Harrison Historian

]. H. KnodE Sergeant-at-Arms

We smoked the pipe of peace and then after the commencement exercises
and exhibition drill, we bade farewell to M. A. C. until the following September.

Our individual trials and triumphs have been related in our biographies and
the general happenings have been but minor ones compared with that great, huge
event, now looming before us, which is — graduation.

The new barracks having been completed, we were again blessed with dor-
mitory life, and this has been an unspeakable pleasure.

There were no unusual e\'ents and the year was mingled with studies and
pleasures.

The Class of 1915 will not be remembered because it did any great or
radical thing, but because it pursued a dignified course throughout its four years,
giving its aid and support to every undertaking that came up. The debt that the
class owes to the college can never be entirely repaid, but we have endeavored
during the four years that we have been here to do soirething for our college
in return for what it has done for us. We hope that when we get out we will
be able to do much more for our Alma A-Iater.

All too soon the end of our college course is coming, and we will have to
take up our separate ways of life. The principles we have learned here will be
applied on a larger sphere and the world ought to be a little better off because
the Class of 1915 has passed through M. A. C. and has come out to do its share
in the advancement of the civilization of the world.

" Ji.^^-

if;i:'i';'ji'{'l'l'i:.i<i ■■•

Having thus set forth our history and i)urpose, it seems but fitting that we
should set forth some definite creed of our convictions and behefs. Hence the
Class of 1915 sets forth as a result of a college course at M. A. C, with its con-
sequent class evolution from Freshmen to Senior, the folhnving:

We bcliexe in everything at AI. A. C. wdiich is beautiful, manly and honorable.

We beliexe in our campus which is full (jf the glory of the universe, its trees,
shrubs, flowers and walks.

We believe in athletics because it lifts us int(j more robust manhood and
fits us for a more stalwart life.

We belie\e in class rivalry, for it adds spice and heljjs create college atmos-
phere. It de\'elops class muscle and class spirit. It planes off our sharp edges
and polishes up our rough surfaces.

We believe that every one should maintain an honorable interest in all college
organizations.

We believe that every one should maintain an honorable interest in his Alma
Mater.

We believe in fellowship and regard it as the greatest godsend in a college
community.

We believe in the Stars and Stripes because they wave as a emblem
of freedom.

\\'e believe in 1915 as the greatest class.

Every beauty, every honorable tradition, every scene of college days we sha:]
preserve, honor and cherish.

JOSEPH PAUL BLUNDON,

Riverdale, Md.

"BOMMY."

Preijarcd at. M. A. C: Morrill; Civil EnRineerinsr.

"Good goods comes in small packages; so does poison."

HIS, ladies and gentlemen, is Joseph Paul Bltmdon, of Riverdale fame. He
matriculated at M. A. C. in the fall of 1910 and entered the Prep. Class.
Hovever, "Bommy" appeared to be possessed of a wonderfully well devel-
opened brain and was shortly made a member of that wonderfully intellectual
body of students then known as the Sub. Freshman Class.

"Bommy" made his debut in the social world at the Junior Prom of 1914
and he has been a regular attendant at all dances since that date.

Since entering into social life, Paul has met "The Girl"" and on every Wednes-
day and Sunday he may be seen running for the 8.10 car. It is rumored that his
destination is Riverdale.

"Bommy" also appears to have a monopoly on the telephone, and if he talks
for less than two hours his friends suspect that something is wrong. (It is under-
stood, however, that the ceremony will not take place until June).

"Bommy," in his official duties as bugler, seems to have made quite a friend
of "Commy." In fact "der Kaiser" takes such interest in Paul that he frequently
calls up "Robby" to find out if his protege has walked his several guard tours.

Taking everything into consideration, we know "Bommy" to be a dandy fel-
low and we all wish him health, happiness and prosperity.

"He is wise from his head it p."

X September 15, 1911,^ there ap])eared ui)on the campus, a veritable giant,
who was later dubbed "Hip," due to the strictest resemblance to that
well-known quadruped, a hippopotamus. The "Sophs" took one good
look at him and decided that there was safety in numbers, thus proving the
statement that "Hip" was only troubled at general meetings.

As a society man, "Hip" is sure there, imitating the example of Sir Galahad,
of wearing his heart upon his sleeve. Just how many hearts he has smashed,
we cannot say, but it has been mathematically proved to be more than one.

"Hip" is one of "Doc Tolly's" pets, audi is pushing "Bommy" close for the
warm spots in "Doc's" heart. You may often see him from 1.15 P. M. to 4.15
P. M. trying to show "Doc" how to square a circle and adjust the telesco])e so
that he can see around a corner, being too lazy to move the instrument. We
expect to hear of some wonderful feat from this young prodigy of our Alma
Mater.

Since his sojourn at M. A. C. "Hip" has made a most enviable record for
himself in football. For the past four years he has been one of the mainstays of
the line, holding down a tackle position, and we feel sure that if Walter Camp,
the great exponent of football, could see "Hip" in action he surely would give
him a birth on the aU-American eleven.

''Never let your studies interfere witli your college career."

HIS page was to be blank but it was afterward allotted to the social editor,
so consequently we find the above picture occupying the centre of attrac-
tion. We might say. however, that the page is little more than blank now
except for the printing.

The above "small fry" comes from Gapland. a place located somewhere in
Western Maryland, and one which causes considerable difficulty in being found
on the map.

Rudolph is quite a heart-breaker, in fact he goes to town every night to
call upon some fair damsel, and we may be sure that, on the morning following,
there will be a sleeping contest in "Bommy's" class-room between he and Dick
Dale — the world-famous long-distance sleeper.

Rudolph is a great friend of "Comrny" and of our band master (?) and
we often wonder why he became excused from drill when he had such admiral)le
friends connected with the military department.

Brown, under "Bob" Rufifner's tutelage, has become a star in animal hus-
bandry, and it has been said that already he can distinguish a Jersey from a
Guernsey.

Notwithstanding all of the above, we all feel sure that his career in life will
be a most successful one.

'\4ii unused youth, zvit/i unstuffed brain."

UPON entering- college some score or more of years ago, this blue-eyed
German youth set out to make a record for himself. His chief charac-
teristic was to go from one term to the next with just as many condi-
tions as the Faculty would allow and sometimes more.

However, we all sympathize with the "Dutchman," for judging from the
size of his feet, one would think that what should be in his head is in his feet.

fie is not exactly a ladies' man, but he had' a good start towards being one.
We are told that she ( ? ) went away to college, and since that time he has not
been able to find another so fair.

No doubt he would have developed into a great nuisician some day, but
unfortunately he and "Dutch" Elbel could not agree as to the time (?) of the
music. In the beginning of his career he played (blew) the cymbals and ended
by playing the snare drum.

It was not until the latter part of his junior year that his classmates awoke
to the fact that he stood head and shoulders above the rest of them as a business
man. Immediately they decided to entrust the business management of the
RRvKillE to him.

Just what "Dutch" or "Buck" intends to do after he graduates (if he ever
does ) we do not know, but we do know that he will make a success of whatever
he undertakes, and to him we all extend our best wishes for success.

"Nez'er bray at an ass."

'V 3.00 A. M. one night atiout twenty years ago, I was aroused from my
slumbers by someone yelling "tire."" I dashed from the house amid thou-
sands of other people who, like myself, were in search of the conflagra-
tion.

Upon an investigation as to the nature of the hre we found that we had
been badly fooled. The creator of all the racket which had alarmed us was
none other than "Plum Point," who a few minutes before had just made his
entrance into the world. Judging from the vociferous cries resounding from
"Plum's" home we may be sure that every inhabitant of Calvert county well
knew that sou^e belated youngster had just been born.

And so it ha])pened that this noisy youth applied for admission to M. A. C.
in the fall of 1911. It is understood that "Poohoo" hrst comprehended his
wants, thinking that the applicant was a young rustic applying for work. To
tell the truth, gentlemen, if you had never seen a real "hayseed" the sight of
"Plum" sure would have been some treat. "Plum" decided to take a course in
Bovine Engineering for, he acknowledged with pride, that even at that youthful
age he could easily distinguish the difference between a cow and a billy-goat.
(He certainly had something on "Mike" Levin).

We all feel sure that "Plum's" success is assured if he will only devote as
much time to developing a good breed of bulls as he has spent in developing a
drag with the ladies.

"ll'orrx and I have never met."

S it [)ossible that the historic old town of AnnapoHs could produce such a
specimen as this? Note the look of wisdon and the well-fed condition
of this future Edison.

From his childhood days, Carter has been possessed of an incurable mania,
fde derives exquisite pleasure by torturing his companions to their utmost limits
of endurance with his "par excellence" jokes. His friends in Annapolis after
laboring for years to correct him gave it up and sent him to M. A. C. Imme-
diately upon his arrival Reg. Truitt took it entirely upon himself to show "Nick"
the error of his way, but in vain. The whole Sophomore Class then took a hand
but their efforts had an entirely opposite effect. However, education has a strong
tendency to broaden the mind, so he has improved wonderfully.

Up to the last part of his Sophomore year Roland led his class in all depart-
ments, in fact it was a rare occasion when this bright young man didn't register
over ninety in his exams, but the distraction of society ( ?) has worked a change
over this gentleman. He now has become slightly indifferent to those high marks
and is devoting much of his time to securing a "drag" with the fair sex (a unit).

With all his faults we love him still and a man more worthy of his ik)])U-
larity than our friend "Nick" Carter is mighty hard to find.

EDLEV ARTHUR AUGUSTINE THOMAS AQUINAS FRAZEE
FOUNTAIN TULL CLARK, JR., the only original Irish English
named, born-and-reared-in-America specimen in existence, now appears
with his fuzzy map. His name had a bad effect on his early growth so upon
his arrival at M. A. C. "Grasshopper" appointed "Madam" Tull to take care of
the little one and see that he did not fall by the wayside on their strolls to Riggs
Mill, the above mentioned "Prof." having failed in the attempt himself.

Although he was raised in New York in a spot which might rival the Garden
of Eden, according to his accounts, yet Hedley has a warm spot in his heart
for old M. A. C. This fondness for our college may mainly be attributed to his
liking for our military system, for Hedley someday expects to establish a king-
dom in Ireland.

Hedley's idea of strategy in the management of the bugle corps varied widely
from the opinion of "der Kaiser." Consecpiently he was violently disranked, al-
most to the point of complete dismissal.

Although he has never taken a very active part in social functions at the
college, yet when it comes to private parties and masquerades this young man is
right out of the barrel. Hedley's first attempt at love-making was a rank failure.
He wanted to talk to a pretty girl who had handed him the glad eye, but didn't
know how to start.

Indeed, the ladies are not the only ones whose tender hearts fledley's ways
have captivated, and we all bid him a fond farewell, wishing him well in after life.

" 'Boolloo' is m\ master, I shall not want."

HARLES T. COCKEY, of Pikesville fame, breezed into this institution of

learning in the fall of 1911 and entered our Freshman Class. During

his "rat" year Charlie took a very inconsjMcuous part in social activities

due to his inability to erase from his memory the luring countenance of some

fair maid in his native "Burg."

At the end of his Freshman year Charles was presented with a corporalcy.
It was then that he sallied forth with his stripes and brass buttons to concjuer
the perfumed realm of the elusive feminine. Napoleon's conquest of Europe
was but a mediocre event as compared with "C. T.'s" subjugation of Cupidom.

For his proficient service as a corporal "Commy" saw fit to bestow upon this
young soldier a commencement present in the form of a pair of First Sergeant's
chevrons. However, Charlie now thinks that he will not follow a military career,
having declared a promotion to the rank of Senior Captain and accepting in its
stead the more lucrative position of Chief Proctor.

"Commy's" heart was almost broken by having his profl:"ered commission
so flatly refused. It might be said that during the present year "Charlie" is
filling the important position of a corporal in the Signal Corps. Nothing like
having a drag with "der Kaiser."

Well, old man, here's to a long and happy life — the Class of 1915.

on his desk with a crowbar. Whither he had gone during his gentle slumbers
we know not, but judging from the happy smile hovering around the corners of
his gullet-opeiiing we infer that he must have been visiting some fair one.

"Dick," beside being one of our social stars and a regular attendant at all
college dances, has also developed into quite a dandy.

As yet "Needles" has not met his soul-mate, although at one time it appeared
as if he had. It all happened during his Sophomore year and, we concluded
that he had gone for better or worse.

"He blushes so intich he looks siin-bitnied."

RlENDS, Romans, Countrymen — We have here the only original mountain
goat — better known as "Fraz."

This gentle native of the AUeghanies made his debut into a civilized
community in the fall of 1909, at which time he matriculated at M. A. C. "Bob"
Tolson seemed to take a great interest in "Frazzle" and made him the guest of
honor at numerous rat-meetings.

Glenn, upon his arrival, declared his intention of fitting himself for positions
— both as a chemist and as a civil engineer, but soon gave up the latter in favor
of a course in college society.

Glenn has a zvonderfiil military bearing. Upon his first appearance at the

commandant's office he was told that he looked like the d 1, and we might add

that his outward appearance has changed little.

"Fraz's"' gentle, loving disposition, has caused many a tear-stained pillow,
and many an aching heart among the fairer sex, but dame rumor reports that all
the tears and heartaches are for naught, as he has asked the momentous ques-
tion of a beautiful brunette residing about two miles northeast of Calvert Hall.

Exit the ghost — back to the mountains or out into the world. May his
career in life be a most successful one.

"A quiet chap of fezc zvords Ti'ho minds his o-a'ii business."

ADIES and gentlemen — I offer for your inspection a specimen which was
discovered in the IjuKi lands of Africa. The party of scientific investi-
gators who found the above were indeed greatly overjoyed, for they
thought that at last the "missing link" had been found and that Darwin's theory
of evolution was definitely proved.

Many sleepless nights have been passed by numerous scientists who have
tried to devise an appropriate name for the above animal, but they have failed.
"'God made it, so let it pass for a man."

Since his discovery "Gibby" has decided to honor the Class of 1915 with
his presence — that is, whenever he could leave his friends ( ? ) around Patter-
son Park.

"Artie" very successfully concealed his true character until the middle of his
Junior year. Then the "Goddess of Love" took possession of his heart and made
him bow at her feet. Shortly after capture "Gibby" discovered himself entangled
in the meshes of Washington society. He soon found, however, that he would
rather analyze fertilizer than the charms of a woman.

We have observed that all great scientists and great men wear long hair,
and if such is the case we have good reason to believe that in the near future
Gibson will become one of the world's greatest scientists.

Goodbye and good luck, old man — the Class of 1915.

"// is certain I am loved by all the ladies."

H ! here he is. Well, I was just about to give up in despair and pay a visit
to the doctor in ordter to have my eyes examined. Gentle reader, I hope
that you will be able to see this insignificant little pea-nut without the aid
of a magnifying glass.

"T. D." came into our midst in the fall of 1910, and he has been one of
M. A. C.'s most loyal supporters ever since. Whether it was for the good of
the College or in the playing of some boyish prank "Ted" was always seen at
the head of the crowd.

"T. D." is a native of Charles county, "what's that?" "You say that is very
apparent?" "Yes, I must agree with you." But, if at this late stage you can
predict with certainty his exact habitat then I only wish that you could have seen
him when he first arrived at M. A. C." Indeed our class prides itself upon the
ability that it showed in removing the debris of the aforesaid county from the
person of "Jell" the Second."

It nfight be said that there was never an expedition after dark, which had
for its purpose the procuring of certain assorted and very palatable victuals,
that was not lead by our future state horticulturist.

"Ted" has been a good student, a hard worker and a fellow well liked by
the entire student body and it is with a most hearty wish for success that we
bid him farewell.

FTER discovering that work was not very beneficial to his health nor condu-
cive toward his general well-being "Eugie" decided to enter M. A. C. Being
of a rather quiet nature (?) he spent most of his first year at hard study and
attending rat-meetings. He was indeed more fortunate than about 99 per cent,
of us in being able to understand "Mikes" way of explaining the wonderful sub-
ject of'psysics and consequently immediately attracted attention by being per-
mitted to sit in the back row amongst the celebrities.

Having attained such a great degree of proficiency in his academic work,
some of his classmates proceeded to introduce him into the Park Society. But,
gentle reader, this was his downfall. For after making his debut at the home of
a certain young lady in College Park and winning a beautiful pennant at the
card partv he could be seen paying frequent calls at the home of the fair one thus
causing serious neglect of his studies.

During his Senior year an attempt was made to introduce "Eugie" intc;
Washington society, but again it was a sad failure. To anyone who knows the
inside facts these failures can easily be explained. "Eugie" already has a fair
one back home and it would not be surprising to discover that he will be the
first one of the Class of "15 to undergo the nuptial ceremony.

satisfied with him as he is.

He took two years of co-education in Sunny Tennessee before he came to
M. A. C, and even now on moonlight nights, he occasionally raves about those
good old days and has been known to become very sentimental when the setting
was right. Heing informed by his family physician that matrimony, insanity or
both, would be the inevitable result unless a halt was called at once, he took the
good advice and specialized in everything frcMii Electrical Engineering to the
college pai)er and the Y. M. C. A. As there has always been one or more pairs
of "glorious eves" mixed up in the case since then, he has been forced to work
tremendously hard to offset their etTect, and hence has gained the reputation of
being a good student.

His classmates were very much alarmed when he began running around
with "Duck" Pennington and "Jack" Sterling, but he was rescued from their
baleful influences by meeting the girl of girls in the nick of time. Since then he
has settled down as all good Seniors .should.

The big sweater-clad fellow with his sunny smile and cheerful greeting will
leave a place hard to fill in the hearts of the sons of M. A. C, as he goes forth
to make his way in the world. He will make good at anything he undertakes —
it is a sort of habit of his. Good luck, old man.

Laying all levity aside we are glad to say that his work at college has been
characterized by a strict attention to duty throughout the course ; the only worldly
diversion in which he seems to have taken a real interest being that of music and
the editorship of this book ( ? )

Pinckney has successfully completed the course in Agricultural Education

he and his chosen helpmeet will make a successful home.

"ffii proud of the Irish blood that's in me, avd difil a bit iiiau can say agin me."

]r N the fall of Dll there appeared strolling aimlessly up College Avenue a
^ I robust-looking specimen of lost Ireland. After his debut into college
society, several nicknames, among which we hnd "Irish," "Jew," etc.,
were applied to the aforesaid portly gentleman.

It was "nary" long before "Irish" made known to all of his fellow-students
in an impressive voice the whereabouts of his home town (Baltimore). To
this day Rous boasts of his little home village and seems to take a special delight
in arguing with some W'ashingtonian over the respective merits of their places
of residence.

"Irish" made his "de-but" into society during the summer of 1912. It was
during this season that Cupid pierced "Jew's" heart and to this day, judging
from those far off looks in his eyes, we somehow feel sure that the wound is
still there.

However, judging froin rumor, it might be said that a healing lotion is being
applied to his battered heart in the form of a young Riverdale maiden.

However, laying all jokes aside, Kelly is a good fellow, a hard student, and
one liked by all of his classmates. The wish of "1915" — Success.

Max Kisliuk, Jr., alias "Max."

"Max" claims to be of foreign birth, to which, we all agree. I'orn
in London, England, November 5, 188'', Kisliuk soon found the island too small
for his wonderful mental growth. He accordingly succeeded in |)ersuading his
parents to emigrate to America where he could have ample room to explore the
realm of nature. After landing in Philadelphia he was not altogether satisfied
and set out to be a second Robinson Crusoe.

He, like all other men of his type, finally ga^•e ui) the idea of discovering
the island of luxuries and decided to settle down in one place. He, accordingly
selected a city which is said to be noted for its beautiful dames so as not to be
lonesome, for "Max" is some ( ?) ladies" man. Graduating from Atlantic City
High School in 1911, he decided to pursue further his educational pursuits, and
matriculated at Rutgers College. Here again he showed his wonderful mental
superiority and decided in his own mind that he knew as much as the "Profs." and
accordingly withdrew, so we are told. Realizing his extraordinary psychological
development he entertained thoughts of becoming President of the United States
and as a result, persuaded his parents to come to \\'ashington, D. C. in the sum-
mer of 1912. Being somewhat disappointed in the returns of the election, he cast
about for a college education, and reported for duty at M. A. C. in the fall of
1912, and was warmly ( ? rat J received into the Sophomore class.

'V was in the fall of 1911 that Hagerstown decided to send her most learned

another have made for him a host of friends in the class and among the student
body.

Jt is said that Harry first met HER in the fall of l'U2, and to say that he
lost his heart would indeed be putting it mildly, for at an\- and all times he may
be heard wildly raving about his fair one. And if you wish to make a friend for
life, you will only have to agree with Harry in regard to her charms.

His pet trick is to take a whole pack of smokes away from anyone who may
chance to visit him. ( However, sometimes he may leave you the coupon. )

"Nodie" made his debut into the social world of M. A. C. at the \9\A:
Junior Prom. As a dancer he was a great success with the exception of one
little mistake which he invariably made. His feet not only had a tendency to
travel in opposite directions, but they also seemed to have a mutual attraction for
one another, which resulted in loss of equilibrium.

( ) all doubters we offer this homely visage as conclusive proof of Darwin's
theorv. This remarkable specimen was pushed on the Maryland Agricul-
turarCoIlege for the fall of 1910.

He soon won fame for his ability as a lawyer and as a detective and if his
accomplishment along the line of detecting eats were known outside the walls
of M. A. C, Sherlock Holmes would surely lose his job. As a military man
"Mein Lieber Augustine" lias had an enviable career. Hie began his military
life as Commy's chauff'eur and ended as a high i)rivate of the rear rank.

Massey tells us that all his recent visits to a town were on account of eye
trouble, but as he also insists on telling us about a beautiful little nurse with blue
eyes and brown hair, and since we have never heard of an eye speciaist working
on Sunday night, we are inclined to believe that the trouble is with his heart and
not his eyes.

As an athlete he has won fame in both track and lacrosse, for he has been
a main-stay on the attack in lacrosse and won the first quarter of the mile in the
George Washington track meet this year.

If Herman is as apt in solving the problems of life, as he has been in winning
the affections of divers maidens in the vicinity of Washington we feel that his
success is assured.

Well, old man, may the best of luck be yours.

'\~iii az'iator's life is the life for me."

X the fall of 1909 there appeared in our midst one of ISraddock Height's
most noted exponents of aeronautics. "Mac" was convinced, after taking
a precipitate tumble from one of the lofty hills near his home, that there
was a more graceful means of reaching terra firma. Consequently he decided to
make, steal, or otherwise obtain an aeroplane. He has been known to lie for days
flat on his back watching the gyrations of the buzzards in the realms above, thus
hoping to secure an idea by which he would be able to perfect an aeroplane far
superior to the tiny air-craft of Germany (Zeppelins).

It has been said that the Scientific American is "Mac's" P.ible and the state-
ment seems entirely plausible for this young gentleman apparently knows by
heart the contents of every issue of the last ten years. You may often hear
him, from some obscure seat in -the rear of the classroom, say, "Professor,
according to the Scientific American your statement do(s not hold good." And
you may be sure that no one disputes him.

Last year it was rumored that a certain young ladv in Riverdale had stolen
"Mac's" heart. It might be said, however, that at last he has regained the
fragments.

"Mac" is also a great exponent of the hit-and-run game. Lacrosse. \\ hen
he made his debut at Carlisle he could do neither and satisfied himself principally
with measurmg his length, breadth and thickness in the mud.

Forgetting the aforesaid we wish "Mac" the greatest success attainable in
his future undertakings.

N the fall of 1*)11 there entered into the midst of the Two- Year Agricul-

n^an, no doubt, felt the call of Mother Earth, even in his city clime, and
consequently decided to learn the art of how to grow cider apples, square peas
and p/ine rooters. Finding the two-year course inadaquate for his expanding
brain, he rightfully and logically turned to the four-year course and entered
our midst in January, 1913.

"Monny" is a decendant of Nap-o-leon Uony-Parte, as you will readily
perceive upon your first glance. Like Napoleon, he is a military aspirant, and
while we doubt that he will ha\'e his Wellington we do suspect that he will meet
his Waterloo in the fair sex. Eh! Carter?

"Monny" wears his heart upon his sleeve, and like a clii[) upon a pugnacious
boys shoulder, it has been picked at, grabbed at, and iinally ruthlessly torn away
— whether he will ever get it back, we have our doubts.

If "Monny" can only stear clear of the fair sex after graduation we know
that his success will be assured.

The best wishes, old man, for a successful career and a happy and long
life— 1915.

J^rl HE above depicted young man is one I<ee Roberts Pennington, better known
as "Duck" or "Quack." Lee was shoved upon us in the fall of 1911,
and was immediately put under the motherly wing of "Steve." How-
ever, it is said that "Duck" was not accorded the gentle treatment which should
have been his for on numerous occasions Lee was noticed gingerly sitting on
the edge of his chair.

Since the arrival of "Quack" or "Duck" as he is better known, he, at least
to some extent, has become domesticated, yet at meal times he still exhibits the
influence of his early wild life by his remarkable ability to cause great quantities
of victuals to disappear.

"Duck" is becoming quite a military man and entertains great hopes of
having the picture of his "fair one" placed in the RKvKilliv as sponsor of Com-
pany B. That his expectation will be realized is evidenced by the daily quota-
tion of "der Kaiser," Sir I wall make you Captain next week if you enforce
my orders.

"Duck" is also quite a ladies' man although when "Madam" Tull is around
(Alexandria) "Quack" seems to lose his drag.

"\'ic" blew in at M. A. C. in the fall of 1910 after spending a few hours
inspecting the handsome stone building at Jessups which, sad to relate, he mistook
for our beloved college.

As a sprinter 'A'ic'" bids fair to out-rival all opponents. However, his main
trouble is that marathon races have gone out of fashion. The College is seriously
thinking of inaugurating a ten-mile dash in the meet this spring for "Vic's"
special benefit. We all feel sure that if this intention is carried out "Queen" will
be wearing a gold medal ere long.

As a society man "\^ic" is a "has been." In his Freshman year the "Queen"
entered into social life with a rush but soon gave it up in disgust, making one of
his famous remarks that dancing was too much like work to be any fun.

It is rumored, however, that during the summer vacations "Vic" has been

other than one "Cy" Perkins; address, Springfield, Alaryland. Although
"Cy"" is not classed among the Beau Brummels and "ladies' men" of our
Class, yet rumor has it that on Sunday evenings Turner is often found dressed
up in his best bib and tucker and happily wending his way toward lierwyn. As
to whom he visits, there is some doubt, but judging from "Cy's" shoulder on the
following Monday "she" must certainly possess beautiful golden locks.

"Cy" is a shining light along the military lines, in fact, he duly kjst the
individual competitive drill last spring a year ago by the smallest margin. Con-
sequently "Commy" showed his appreciation of '"Cy's" military ability by pro-
moting him this year to the high office of Senior Private.

Politics is "Cy's" strong point. It is likely that some day the great city of
Springfield will have as its Mayor one \\'. T. Perkins. It might be well to explain
that Springfield is on the Pennsylvania Railroad and is a suburb of Bowie.

Upon entering M. A. C. "Cy" desired to take a course of study which would
not interfere with his more important objects in life; consequentlv he is pursuing
Civil Engineering. However, he finds that under "Doc Tolly's" guidance this
study is proving to be rather an elusive one.

Never-the-less, we all feel sure that "Cy" will make good in this old world
of ours and it is with a wish for the best of luck that we bid him farewell.

"Patience, and sinijfle the cards."

11 EN that illustrious red-head from Kensingtcjn. Md., known as "Pete"
decided to enter our midst, we were indeed fortunate.

He was ambitious of becoming a great speaker and; at the present
time, Prof. Richardson admits that he is second only to the great Irish orator,
Michael Levin.

"Pete" has the honor of being president of our illustrious Class and he
makes a good one, his specialty being parliamentary law. He shines in chem-
istry, although Prof. Broughton was hot on his trail for not returning when
school convened. His excuse was that water boys were so hard to secure in far
off Colorado, that he had to stay on the job.

"Pete's" greatest failing is his love for the fair sex, which we are very
sorry to say is not reciprocated. When he arrived at M. A. C, we found that
he was destitute of that essential organ, the heart, but after a short time it was
discovered in its proper place, having been returned via a 2-cent postage stamp.
-Even after this mortal thrust he again tried to lose it in Washington but failed.

We certainly feel sorry for you "Pete," old boy, and hope you have better
luck in the future.

Regardless of the above knocks, we all think "Pete" a fine fellow and we
wish him all kinds of success, when he hits this pig-iron world of ours.

Everett, in fact, makes a splendid C). D., but for some unaccountable reason
"Commy" has never given him the privelege of enjoying this honor and Everett,
in order to reap his revenge for being deprived of the glory of the above oihce.
has made it a rule only to attend drill on the alternate Mondays in every second
month.

Although we may assume that "'Commy'' has no great liking for the counte-
nance above, yet we may be assured that with "Doc Tolly" quite the reverse is
true. In fact, "Doc" thinks that some day Everett will earn a reputation that
will make that of Col. Goethals fade into insignificance and our Class is sure
that when this young engineer brings forth all of his ingenuity and ability in
designing and constructing the great bridge over Paint P)ranch that an exposition
far superior to the present one in California will be held in College Park.

Everett claims to be the originator of the so-called modern dances but one
could scarcely compose the beautiful and graceful fox trot to the ridiculous antics,
motions and gestures that characterized his appearance on the dance floor four
years ago.

Notwithstanding all of the above roasting we all realize that Everett is a
good fellow and we all join in wishing him the brightest of futures.

<?(![Tn\ ( )P£" took time to be born on April 7, 1894. Mr. Roberts succeeded in
teaching- the instructors o+ Oxford Grammar School all that he knew
and retired in order to join the Maryland Agricultural College.

"Dope" entered M. A. C. in the fall of 1000. His first expression upon
entering class, was: "\\"al now, professor you see it is this way "' He started
to shine as a "Prep" and has shone ever since except when he was behind the
cloud of "Doc's" discouragement. We were all made very nnich wiser by
"Dope's" explanation to "Doc Tolly" of the correct manner of running a transit
and how to run in grade stakes.

Edgar is noted for the fact that he can smoke more cigarettes and buy the
less than any fellow at M. A. C. He is the best example of the Protopona
Aleus (tobacco worm) ever discovered here. "Dope" fully believes in the prin-
ciples of credit as taught by "Bommy" and practiced them, as the C. E. section
will testify.

"Dope" ha> always been a friend of "Comny's." He was offered the
captaincy of Company "D." but refused this because he would rather finish his
musical education on the trombone. Edgar came out in the society world at
The Junior Prom.

his appearance on this globe down in the wilderness of the "Eastern
She' " of Virginia in the year of 1893. From the very hrst, "Robby"
has been a very peculiar youngster, it being necessary for his grandfather to
provide a monkey as a jilaymate in order that "Robby" would not feel out of
place with the other hun)an beings of this earth.

In the fall of 1910 "Sonny" landed in College Park, and — well, he is still
here. We believe that "Doc Tolly" must have inspired "Robby" to remain at
M. A. C, for it is no uncommon occurrence to hear "D'oc" rumble forth, "Now,
Robinson, don't be a fool — that's right, make an ass of yourself. "However, all
the "profs" are very fond of him and ]ircdict a bright and prosperous future for
"Sonny."

"Robby" is a great favorite among die girls. He loves them all — thinks
they all love him. He has been known to love some so intensely that he was not
able to tear himself from their presence until the millsman payed his early •.iiorn-
ing visit. In spite of the above facts, he is now looking for a sponsor, as his
best girl lately "walloped" him.

We wish him the best of success in life and feel sure that our wishes will
not be in vain.

"Help! J' lit falliug in love."

P ENTLEMEN, this is Martin Rohn, the world-famous chemist. Although
U/* Martm has analyzed many substances since his advent here yet he seem>
to have special skill and ability in the analysis of a select few, i. e., beer,
cider and wine. When it comes to testing the palatability of beer Martin is
certainly in Class "A." In fact, he is not the only member of the Senior chemical
section who seemed to have a special liking for the analysis of fermented liquors
for out of twenty-four bottles of beer purchased for that purpose only twelve
were ever used. The other dozen must surely have been stolen, although "Reds"
Dennis swore that he smelled beer on the breath of several Senior chemists.

Martin has a most enviable reputation in the military department. After
two months" service, as a Senior i)rivate, during which period he attended drill
three times, he along with the other Seniors whose sleeves were devoid of any
insignia of military efficiency, were requested to call upon "der Kaiser." After
being closeted with "His Majesty" for about an hour Martin came forth with a
glittering weapon in his hand. During that same drill period an order issued by
"His Highness" (acting directly for the Secretary of War) announced Alartin's
promotion to the rank of Second Lieutenant. The effect was wonderful. He
now attends drill regularly, keeps his shoes shined and even shaves once a week.

HIS page was reserved for the most handsome man in the Class of '15,
and the choice was left in the hands of the ladies of Washington. And
just to think of it "Sonny" was elected unanimously. Take a glimpse
at this creature, fair reader, and form your opinion of the taste of the W'ash-
nigton Maids.

When this intelligent-looking, country lad entered the Freshman Class he
was at once pounced upon by "Mike" Creese for in Nairne "Mike" thought he
saw the making of a second Edison. Sad to relate "Mike's" expectations have
not been realized.

"Toddy" has made a record for himself during the last two years, for he
has brought more different girls to the various college functions than any other
man here. He says that variety is the spice of life We all wonder if he or she
expressed the idea first.

We could not call "Toddy" a military man for only last fall "Sonny" emphat-
ically told "der Kaiser'' that he deserved much more pleasure and beneht from
shooting pool than from attending military formations, and it was with great
regret that "Napoleon" gave him his unconditional release from the military
department.

"Toddy's" future plans are somewhat unsettled as he has not yet decided
whether it would be advisable for him to accept the presidency of the Squabash
Electric Company or to continue his old practice of summering in Atlantic City.
\\'ell, "Sonny," old man, the best of luck to you — the Class of 1915.

"And lust of all came Madam."

PdI EHOLD, ladies and gentlemen, the above is one Johanna J. Tull, dubbed
\:;iLl) I ]ohn, and called "Madam" for .short. "Madam" descended upon Cris-
"held, a town said to be located somewhere along the Eastern Shore of
the Chesapeake T.ay.

Since her arrival she has certainly been a most conspicuous hgure in college
life. In fact, on various mid-night excursions, whether they be for the purpose
of chastising some rat or the purloining of one or more members of some neigh-
bor's roost, "Madam" has always been found amongst those in the front rank.
We feel sure that if a book were to be written entitled, "The Adventures of
Three Sophs," or "Who Stole Cab's Turkey?" no better author could be found
than Johanna.

"Madam" has made some wonderful discoveries along the hue <^f chemical
research. For instance, he has ascertained definitely that by treating oyster shells
with steam under pressure a product is obtained which is far superior as a
fertilizer than sodium nitrate. "Madam" sees a great future ahead of him and
says that "Curl}" Ryrd will be his secretary, "Mike" Creese his depositing bank
and "Doc Mac" his right hand man. We all wish him success in his future
enterprise.

ALPH PHELPS WEST, alias "Skeeter" or R. P., one of old X'irginia's

choicest specimens, according to a certain member of the fair sex, first

put in his appeal ance at M. A. C. in the fall of l^O'). Throughout his

Freshman year "Skeeter" fought shy of the limelight due, no doubt, to his

retiring disposition. Hovve\-er, in the spring he donned a baseball suit and showed

up well. (In the team picture.)

Ralph returned in the fall of 1910, but after remaining at college for a few-
days he decided that a year's vacation would be of great benefit. So he accord
ingly retired to the \ irginia farm and devoted his entire time toward perfecting
a plan whereby he could reap re\enge on "His Highness.""

Upon returning in the following fall "Skeeter"' tested his scheme, but after
walking countless guard tours he gave it up as a bad job.

Ralph is not openly a society man and he would have us believe that the
fair sex hold no charms for him, but it has recentlv been learned that his trip^
to \\'ashington are not always on business. Furthermore, it is rumored that
while in the hospital he became infatuated with a certain nurse. If such be the
case he will be assured of the best wishes and congratulations of the Class of
1915.

"Hi does'iit say uincli, 'tis clear
He'll make a first rate eiu/iiieer."

T was in the fall of l'J12 that, while welcoming the returns of our class-
mates, we noticed off to the right a fellow who was posses'^ed of a lean
and hungry look. Upon inquiring as to the name of this Cassius we
learned that his cognomen was William Frederick Wright: address, Forest Glen.
near Alonkey Hollow, Maryland.

It was indeed fortunate for us that "Freddy" entered tlie portals of dear
old M. A. C. at this time, for numerous members of our Class were experiencing
great dihiculties with the language usually known as "Dutch," but which wdien
spoken of by a numbc!" of us is often characterized b\ more explosive adjectives.
In fact, as a German shark "Freddy" is JTriy/it there.

Like the rest of the Seniors "Freddy" is a ladies' man and when he gets all
dolled U]) on a h'ridav afternoon and takes his little suit case along we may be
sure that his Irij) is not to be entirely of a business nature.

retwtnth, Linden, Forest Glen and New ^'ork are also dear to his heart as
may be seen b) the tinted envclo]-es that he finds daily in his mail box. How
lie can remain so popular and still keep them all guessing is a riddle which no
one can solve, but we certainly ho])e that some day one of these fair ones will
catch William Frederick and put the shackles on him for good and for all.

After graduation "Freddy'" intends to take a post-graduate course at Cornell
so that all that we can say is, "Go to it, old bov, and luck be wath vou."

UR Junior year, "happy medium" between the run-wild-go-reckless
Sophomore and the dignified Senior, is fast fading into the even-
ing's dusk. 'Tis sad to know that these care- free days are so nearly
spent and that 'twill be only a few more hours when our drooping
eyelids shall close to slumber in vacation's peaceful rest from whence
we shall awake to find our shoulders strapped about with the heavy burden of
a Senior's life.

But this sketch is to be historical, not prophetic; so let us run back and take
a glimpse or two at the individuals who have just passed through this happy
dream known as Junior life. We shall find some who are athletes of marked
ability, some who are prize-winners in scholastic work, some who are "lady
killers" of renown, and some, like Eddy, upon whom the god's have bestowed
all three of these heavenly gifts.

Aitcheson is the first name upon our roster, and "Itchy" takes great pride in
explaining to all newcomers that he is not only first in alphabetical order, but
that he leads in all else — arguments, hst-hghts, and cotillion alike. Bains is next
on the list and, to be frank, the less truth is told about this gentleman the higher
the standard of perfection he will attain in the eyes of the readers of his biog-
raphy. Then comes one who, the fairer sex have declared, portrays a striking
likeness to Apollo, and whom thev ha\e christened "Les," but who is known to
us as Bopst.

The two seats beyond are occupied by Johnny l^owling and Jimmy ISradley,
representing, respectively. Southern Maryland and Lonaconing, and those intel-
lectual abilities are as widely contrasted as their names are alike.

"Bill" Brockwell, of Uladensburg road, next looms uj) before us and swears
that Colonel Stephen Decatur and Captain liarran fought their famous duel in
his backyard ; he, himself, came near fighting a duel here at college during his
"rat" year while he was getting a shave under peculiar circumstances. The last
B on our list stands for Burlingame, an aristocratic name, which is necessary in
order to conform with his patrician sense of dignity and his Roman nose. Upon
turning to the D's we find one Stanley Day, a c[ueer mixture of good and evil.
Says Professor Rufifner: "While I was traveling in the State recently 1 met a
lady who told me that Mr. Day, while staying at her home, came in one night
from a muddy tramp around the farm, and without taking the trouble to remove
his hat or boots, made a flying dive over the foot-board, landed in the center of
one of her nice, clean beds, and proceeded to sleep there without the further
removal of wearing apparel." Knowing Stanley's love for sleep, we doubt not
the truthfulness of this narrative.

Eddy is the next unit in our structure, and he was Hghtly sketched in the
introduction of this paper, but his running mate, "Luke" Erdman, is worthy of
mention because of his remarkable success in the social world ; Ford holds down
the F's, and that he is strictly square and just is evidenced by his deep love of
Justice ; he walks with Justice, talks with Justice, and when he goes to bed he
dreams of Justice; Justice has filled his life.

The next letter of our alphabet is given a good start in the person of one
"Lefty" Grace, who is pretty well known as the M. A. C. Speed King, and needs
very little praise along that line; but the Historian would dearly love to him that
those same legs which have so often broken the tape for him have far oftener
borne him through the night's blackness away to safety from the local Cop's
vehement oaths. Gray and Grift'en finish up our G's; in class periods they sit side
by side, chew tobacco with a muffled munch and spit carefully and deliberately
beneath each other's chair. The H"s begin and- end with "Dutch" Hindman. All
of us are well enough satisfied with "Heiney's" school work and athletics, but
his classmates insist that his gastronomical cravings are abnormal, inasmuch as
he considers lubricating oil far superior to all other forms of beverage. How he
is to captain our football team on such a diet is known only to "Hein\-." The
name of Knatz is the next to appear before us, and because Knatz is so reticent
it is rather hard to get a line on his specialty; however, since he leads his
course in scholastic work, it may suthce to say that "Still water runs deep."

Kenneth Knode, Class President, drops into our al])hal)et at this pijint,
and while "X" has never been exacting in the selection of his food-stufi-s, he
has always had a weakness for dishes of Chinese concoction ; and, until the
autumn of 1914 rice seemed to appeal strongly to his palatal nerves. How-
ever, since the beginning of his Junior year he has not mentioned this subject,
and there are thcxse who attribute his success as captain of our ]:)aseball team
during the past season to this change in diet.

Lodge is the only man among us Who may boast of having the same
initial letter as does the sweet sounding word "Love," and he firmly main-
tains that this coincidence alh:nvs him special privileges — at least so says the
fair lady who, at our mask l)all last Hallowe'en, fashioned her costume a la
Satan.

Ralph McHenrv, our apostle of Demosthenes, is indeed one of those
complex and contrary characters which are the despair of all biographers:
the only comment which the Historian dares to make is that he is the "argu-
ingist" Irishman wdio ever passed beneath the portals of M. A. C. Three other
"Macs" adorn our roster — McBrian, McKenna and AfcLean. A\'hile none need
introduction or explanation, it is worthy of mention to say that the former
tw^o have never been seen in com])any with one of the fairer sex, and that the

last named has very little to do with any sex, either fair or unfair. Morris
is the fourth and last M we possess, and, to tell the truth, it requires more
than human effort to think of anything that cannot be said about him.

"Uuke" Reisinger heads and foots the R's. "Duke" is a quiet, unassum-
ing chap who has lately mingled somewhat with the skirt world, but as yet
this character is in its infancy.

"Sandy" Sando starts oft" the long list of S's, and while we have not been
able to find out much about him, we are given to understand t'hat someone
will have to Inirn more than one gallon of midnight oil to place himself be-
tween Sando and the Honor Medal of the Chemical Course. Next comes
Smith and Smoot, two good-looking horticultural sports, the former hails from
Georgetown, the latter from God knows where.

Steinmetz, Sterling and Sunstone complete the S's. Steinmetz has exhib-
ited a keen foresight to business by interesting himself in the Park Auto Repair
Company, a thrifty garage of our little metropolis. Sterling has distinguished
himself in the literary organizations of our College as a debater of no mean
ability, and has also placed to >his credit various successful escapades into
Hyattsville society. It need only be said of Sunstone that he is the owner
of that barroom bass which arises out of the depths of different h.i.rmonious
(?) selections rendered in and around Calvert Hall. Taymen starts off the
T's, and "Tay" is another individual who has had dreams of fortune in the
automobile business. Taylor and Towles follow next, and they are both
quiet chaps who desire no publicity.

We pass on and run into one "Fritz" White, the greatest surprise of the
class. For nearly five years "Fritz" followed the straight and narrow path;
however, early in his Junior year he ran amuck and has since rapidly made
up for lost time. On the fifteenth of last January he decided that chemistry
would not suffice to claim the undivided attention of his ever evolving intel-
lectuality, and on that date he blackened a previously flawless record by mak-
ing his debut into the merry whirl of Rossibourg social life.

W'ilson is the next and last man upon the roster of our little Ijand. He
is a good boy, wears glasses and a purple sweater and is perhaps a fitting
period with wihich to punctuate our long and involved sentence.

And now, kind and patient reader, you have acquired a more or less accu-
rate knowledge of the peculiarities and eccentricities, whims and ambitions of
each individual whom Fate has guided here and united in the bonds of Junior-
hood.

We are all looking forward to next year when we will have reached the
goal of our ambitions to be Seniors. Thus endeth the history of the Junior
Class.

SOPHOnORE

maSi^DS'f t)2 St)pSilt)D:j:lD2'^

T the beginning of this scholastic year, the Class of 1917 assumed
its first real responsibilities, both in(li\'idually and collectively.
This realization stimulated within us the desire to not only
measure up to the standards of the class, but to make this the
l)est and greatest Sophomore Class in the history of the Alary-
land Agricultural College.

In the early part of October, the Sophomore Class held a meeting in the
Auditorium for the i)urp()se of extending a welcome to the new students. The
rat rules were read, after which Vice-President W. D. IJarrett delivered
a short address on the attitude of the Class of '17 toward the Fresbman Class.
In the course of Air. IJarrett's remarks, he emphasized particularly the neces-
sity of abolishing violent hazing, stating that this was a thing of the past and
not in harmony with the present progressive policy of the class. In its stead,
he declared, a closer relationship shoukl be estal)lished between the two
classes, thus co-ordinaring in a systematic way their several functions, at the
same time insuring the greatest autonomy for the work in promoting the
interests of the classes

The first step in this direction was the inauguration of athletic contests
between the Sophomore and Freshman classes. These contests have now
taken the place of the traditional rat meetings, which were so popular in the
days of the Old Barracks.

The first scrimmage was a cane rush held on September 25th, in the
presence of a large number of enthusiastic and curious spectators. The Sophs
battled heroically on the famous campus of M. A. C. for supremac}'. The
Sophomore Class seemed to be the faster, and as the opposing sides crashed
together the foremost Sophomore made a desperate lunge for the cane, but —
too late, for Chauncy P^yle and "Hot" James snatched it into Sophomore terri-
tory. Instantly the two classes represented a wriggling, twisting, squirming,
seething, fighting mass of humanity. The Sophomores put up a wonderful
fight, but when time was called the cane was still in their territory, and the
Freshmen were declared the victors.

Some time in the latter part of November a Tug-o'-W'ar over Paint Branch
was proposed. This was held on the 5th of December. The Sophomores were
confident of winning, their team being composed mostly of men who were
famous on the gridiron ; and, in truth, they presented a formidable appearance.
The Freshman team was apparently somewhat weaker; so, through the courtesy
of the captain we permitted the Freshmen to drive stakes, piles, etc., in the
ground, in order to insure a firmer foothold, these serving as an auxiliary agency
of resistance in supplying that which was lacking in their physical make-up.

It was this generosity that whipped us, and in gratitude, we were dragged
unceremoniously through the chill, and murky waters of Paint Branch.

There is an old superstition to the effect that the third trial is successful.
Coincident with this superstition, the Sophomore Class won the third contest,
which was a pocket billiard tournament. This victory privileged us to fiy our
class banner, and it may now be seen on the pinnacle of Science Hall furling
ind unfurling in graceful rythm, daily waving a triumphant greeting to her loyal
sons.

PVofessor Creese was so startled when Donnet passed the physics condition
exam, that his stogy suffered inattention for two whole days ; but when Jawn
passed his second term, poor Mike suffered such a relapse that the Sophomore
Class became deeply concerned for fear he would be unable to meet them the
next day. However, John is to be congratulated, for he shed countless beads of
perspiration and coined many a picturesque expression, which served him well
in his eulogies on "The Silent One."

Simultaneously with crediting "Hap" Mess with a zip. Doc Alac said, "It's
a long way to Tipperary." "Hap" gazed mournfully at the woodpecker just out-
side the window and paraphrased, "It's a long way to Greenbackville." As the
echo of Doc's "Tipperary" reverberated through the chambers of "Oby's" lethargic
brain, he stirred drowsily, subconscious that Doc had spoken. After these sounds
penetrated the walls of slumber, eventually finding intelligence in the dormant
brain, "Oby'' opened his eyes in wonderment, gazed interrogatively at Doc, then
innocently winked at this self-same friend of farmers, and whispered to "Hon-
ker," "If Doc could only see me crawl out at 8.10."

This has been a glorious year, replete with good times and humorous hap-
penings ; but, with all, we have not forgotten our responsibilities. We realized
last September that the days of childhood were over, that we had approached
the border line of manhood, the line of demarcation the youth longs so to cross.
Yet, when the time comes to make the crossing he is reluctant, and loves to linger
just a little while longer — "to bide a wee" — ere he takes the final step, retaiifing
nothing but memories to remind him of the sweetest days of his life.

It was due to this desire to linger that certain escapades, which tradition
teaches us is a function of the Soj)homore Class, were successfully managed. Yet,
these few did not tarry long and ere Christmas had come, we were a unit in
fostering and promoting the best interests of the class.

President Derrick and his staff enjoy the admiration of all well-thinking
students for their singleness of puq^ose and activity in carrying out their policy
for class betterment, and it is the concensus of opinion in this class that the meth-
ods employed and results accomplished have won us the trust and esteem of the
Faculty. If this is so, our work has been well done, and we hope the year of
19Li-'16 will serve to weld stronger the bonds of unity, thus strengthening us
in our efforts to add one more star to the crown of glory of our beloved Alma
Mater.

SNOW BALLS AND HIGH BALLS

UTf ®2 ItSa^ iP'^rBgdiiO:!!^!!:! ^Glik

NE day, soon after we started our College career at this ancient site
of learning, we were told in cha]>el that we would shortly partici-
pate in an athletic contest of a kind that had never been held here
before — a cane rush between the Freshmen and the Sophomores.
Let us recall the afternoon when we battled the Sophomores so
valiantly.

We were lined up at one end of a hundred-yard field, the Sophs at the other
end. Professor Richardson fires the pistol. The classes crash together. One of
our men has the cane ! He falls, and both classes pile up on him. The cry rings
out, "Hold them, Freshies ! The cane's on their territory! Hold them!" The
Sophs strive furiously to push us back, but in vain. Slowly, inch by inch, the hero
at the bottom of the i)ile pulls the cane forward, and slowly the minutes pass.
The Sophs hurl themselves again and again at our impregnable line. At last the
stop-pistol goes ofif. We have won by 10 yards, and the first cane rush goes
down in M. A. C."s history to our credit.

Nothing else of importance happened until about Thanksgiving, when we
had a tug-o"-war with the Sophomores. Many were they who predicted that we
had no chance at all to win, for the team selected from the Sophomore Class
greatly outweighed our team. The tug-o'-war was held over Paint Branch at a
place where the branch is about forty feet wide. The opposing team was on one
bank, our team on the other. Greatly to the surprise of all — except us — our team
pulled the Sophomores off their bank, through the water, and halfway U]) the
bank on the other side. If the tug-o'-war had lasted a half minute more the
Sophomores would have been pulled the entire distance from their side to ours.

Soon after the tug-o'-war came the much-dreaded examinations, and then
we went home, glad to see the home folks again, and to get a much-needed rest.

The second term passed in diligent work. After the examinations and a
week of the third term, the Easter vacation — a welcome rest, but all too short.

For the remainder of the third term we had one great trouble. The head
of each department of the College seemed to think that our si)are time was for the
sole i)uri;ose of doing outside work in his department — and each assigned us
enough outside work on his particular subject to take u]) all our spare time--
and then wanted to know why we had not done his work.

The examinations were really a welcome; they marked the end of the school
year. Examinations, competitive drill, and commencement all passed in a flash ;
we said good-bye to one another, and the Freshman year of the Class of '18 was
no more.

HE Congress of the United States, subject to certain conditions, now
approi)riates annually a generous sum for each Agricultural College
of the United States.

One of the conditions imposed by this grant is that the students
shall receive a course of training in ^Military Tactics.

I'he instructor of this course is supplied by the War Department, and is an
officer of the Regular Army. Major J. A. Dapray.

The value of such military training may be considered from two viewpoints.
P'irst, that of the United States Government; and, second, that of the individual
student.

To consider the first: The Government, depending as it does upon the citizen
soldiers for its A'olunteer Army in times of national peril, realizes that an army,
recruited from raw material as regards both otificers and men, would be a most
helpless proposition in these days of quick action. If the officers were trained
men they would be of inestimable value in shaping these collections of citizens into
efficient armies.

Government aided schools are therefore required to give such a course in
Military Tactics as will create in this country a body of men whose knowledge of
the Alilitary Art is sffiucient to enable them to officer companies of infantry when
called upon by the Government in the defense of the country.

From the viewpoint of the student, the military training makes for character —
"it systematically develops the body and it educates the mind along a consistent
line for the double purpose of clear thinking and effective practical work."

"it exercises the character, it disciplines the mind, it inculcates habits of
subordination to lawful authority, of strict personal accountability for word and
act, of truth telling, of integrity and fidelity to trust, of simplicity of life and of
courage."

In addition, a cadet has during his term as such, most excellent opportunities
to perfect himself in the great art of commanding others.

This problem is for every cadet to solve some time during his cadet career.
He tmds that he must know his men, and that he must know how to appeal to
those under him, if he wishes to get results without antagonizing them.

108

The War Department designates an ofiicer of the General Statt of the Regu-
lar Army to make an annual inspection of the Military De])artment of each of the
institutions of learning in the United States at which an officer is regularly de-
tailed. There are about one hundred such institutions. The inspector rates these
schools according to their status and military efficiency. We have always ranked
high among the colleges in our class.

The corps of cadets is organized as a battalion of three companies, staif and
band, the drill and administration of which conform as far as possible to that
of the regular army.

All students other than those physically disabled and those specially excused
by the President of the College, are required to drill, and upon entering are
enrolled in one of the companies of the battalion.

The instruction in the Military Department is both practical and theoretical.
The practical instruction includes the school of the Soldier, Squad, Company
and Battalion in Close and Extended Order, Ceremonies of Guard-Mounting,
Review and Inspection, Dress Parade. Escort to the Color, Advance and Rear
Guard Work. Patrolling and Scouting, Marches, A'isual Signaling.

The theoretical instruction is given to all members of the Senior Class and
consists of instruction in Infantry Drill Regulations, Manual of Guard Duty,
Field Service Regulations, etc., supplemented by lectures on tactical subjects.
Army Regulations, Tactics, and Military Law.

The battalion of cadets is equipped with the United States magazine rifle,
calibre .30, known as the Krag-Jorgensen, with complete equipment of side arms,
cartridge box, etc. The cadet officers and non-commissioned officers are equipped
with the regulation West Point cadet sword.

The officers and non-commissioned officers of the cori)s are selected with ref-
erence primarily to their fitness for the duties they will be required to perform.
Their general department and proficiency in academic work are also given weight
in making such selection.

Commissioned officers are, as a rule, selected from the Senior Class, Sergeants
from the Junior Class, and Corporals from the Sophomore Class.

HE year 1914-1915 has seen a marked growth of the College Asso-
ciation. Its new quarters, at first ample for its needs, have already
been outgrown. A\'ith a piano, a victrola, books, billiards, and
smaller games, it has afforded entertainment and amusement to an
increased number. A "Mutt and Jeff'" membership campaign raised
the membership to 212, with the result that only four colleges of our class in the
United States have higher percentages of the student body as members.

In a religious way, it has provided during the present school year, speakers
and music for twenty-three Sunday afternoon services, with a total attendance of
over one thousand people. Ministers of the neighboring churches were put in
touch with the students of their denominations and eft'orts made to foster church
and Sunday school attendance. Three week-day Ijible classes have been well
attended, yet there were many boys who were enlisted either in Sunday school
work or in the Y. M. C. A. Bible class work. One of the working aims of the
Association is to urge boys to seek God's Will for their lives, and no search is
fully productive without the study of the Bible. It is hoped that no other features
of the work will ever be allowed to detract from this important purpose.

The growing interest in chess resulted in the formation of a Chess Club which
now has its own room, where the members may play undisturbed.

The employment bureau has obtained w^ork for a number of boys and is at
present preparing to place several in summer jobs.

The entertainment-reception given by the Y. M. C. A. certainly proved to be
a "Mixer."' Fun and frolic completely routed dignity and care.

The Bentztown Bard, in a benefit entertainment, delighted his audience by
his journeys in Childhood Town and added a neat sum to the Y. M. C. A.
treasury.

The Freshman-Sophomore contest proved interesting and worth while. The
Freshman won the Cane Rush and their flag with its "18" fluttered over the
campus as a token of their victory. Later they won the tug-o'-war by pulling
the Sophs through Paint Branch. The Billiard Tournament proved their down-
fall and the Sophs hoisted their white banner with its "17'" over Morrill Hall.
Tennis and baseball are yet to be played.

There is real work to be done by the Y. M. C. A. Enthusiasm and united
effort on the part of the student body should do much to make our plane of living
and thinking as high and pure as is the air of our beautiful campus.

IN THE Y. M. C. A. ROOMS

SOPHOMORE-FRESHMAN BILLIARD TOURNAMENT

^HILILS^IEDg

GAME of straight pocket l)illiards is al:)Solutely a game of skill. In few
games is there so little chance. This makes it one of the cleanest amuse-
ments. The only stigma it can possibly bear is that due to its environment,
and where its surroundings are good it is a genteel form of entertainment. On
this account the Y. M. C. A. welcomes it and surrounds it with the atmosphere
as deserves a clean and wholesome one.

Our billiard tables have been in constant use during recreation hcjurs. The
four dollars per week paid to the students in charge of the room may well be
considered a productive investment, as is the two hundred and fifty dollars in-
vested in the tables themselves.

On the reverse side of the billiard tickets is printed the following:

■ "The Y. M. C. A. is what YOU and others make it.

You o\Ae it to yourself — -

1st. To make the IHlliard Room a place where you would be willing to have
your MOTHER call at ANY time.

2nd. To make games a hel]) and not a hindrance to your school work.

No smoking or indecent language will be allowed in the Y. M. C. A. rooms."

HE M. A. C. Weekly was founded Oct. 15, 1914, being an outgrowth
of the "Triangle," which had been in existence for over five years.

The "Triangle" had accompUshed a great work. For five years
it had kept the sons and friends of Maryland in touch with their
Ahna Mater. They welcomed its bi-monthly visits. The "Triangle"
served its purpose and served it welL It was an ahunni paper pure and simple.
Much of its subject-matter was compiled by the Faculty. The student body
took but very little interest in the newspaper. Often the editorial stafif was com-
posed of students who were for the most part figure-heads as far as their news-
paper work was concerned. The only important position was the business man-
agership.

The Class of '15 elected an energetic man for the 1915 Editor-in-Chief. He
was not content to stand idly by and watch the paper run itself. He was de-
termined to make the College paper a paper for the College, for the students as
well as for the alumni. And he did.

On Oct. 15, at a "Triangle" board meeting, the College paper was made a
weekly, and its name changed to "M. A. C. JVeekly." With the change of name
came a change of control. The Faculty Committee gladly retired to the position
of censors. The Business Manager started right by making the financial side of
the proposition safe. The editors got out their work on time ; the students got
today's news today. It was no easy task. A great deal of prejudice had to be
overcome and pessimistic predictions of failure met with a smile. Before many
issues had appeared students could be seen in groups reading the "]Veekl\" and
discussing its articles. It was alive. It contained real "dope." It dealt with
student activities and student problems.

Besides being a student newspaper the "Weekly" also became a better alumni
paper than the "Triangle." It was more prompt in carrying its names, and it
contained more news. The alumni appreciated' the new paper. Many of them
wrote and said so. The Alumni Editor, who superintendent the alumni page,
made his department equal to the other departments.

The "M. A. C. JVeekly" has become an important factor in the college life
of M. A. C. It has accomplished more than the wildest dreams of its founders,
Of their efi^orts they may be justly proud, because M. A. C. is proud of them.

And golden locks come flashing by
Like sudden sunslti)ie through the sky.

N the year of 1891 a band of M. A. C. boys, who had become tired
of College life devoid of social activities, bowed their heads at the
shrine of music and thereby confessing devotion to the gay muse,
Terpsichore, organized the Rossbourg Club.

When the club w^as first organized many names for it were sub-
mitted but all gave way to the present one. What is now the main building of the
Marvland Agricultural College Experiment Station was once a famous hostelry,
the Rossbourg Inn.

Old inhabitants tell us that the old Rossbourg Inn, eight miles from Wash-
ington and directly in front of the College, was in its day a famous breakfasting
place; that many gay stage parties from Baltimore and Washington would spend
their evening there, and. bringing forth "Uncle Fred," the white-haired darkey,
with his famous "dancing" fiddle, would bow and courtsy daintily to the low, sweet
strains of a minuet, so very appropriately the club was named the Rossbourg Club.
The club has just completed one of the most successful years in its history,
having had a larger enrollment and more dances than ever before. The members
of the Rossbourg Club extend to the Faculty and their friends and particularly to
the voung ladies who have made our dances a g:reat success.

NOTHER year has passed by bearing with it its trials, efforts^ suc-
cesses and failures. Many times we have felt discouraged and
thought that the interest in literary work had died out, but at other
times inspired by some new impulse it bursts forth in all its splen-
dor and shows the skeptic its real power.

Morrill has been very active during the past year. Meetings were held every
Friday evening unless there was something unavoidable to prevent them. Her
representatives have been working hard and have won honors for her, as well as
for themselves. In oratorical contests, in debates, on the M. A. C. Weekly or
RUvKille; Staff her men have always reflected credit on their society.

This year we believe that literary life and spirit has improved and has sur-
passed that of the last several years. Each meeting was characterized by gen-
uine and wholesome enthusiasm. As a whole, the programs were not merely pre-
pared to inform and entertain but to give inspiration to each and every member.

Last year the orator was chosen from the Morrill Society to represent our
College against St. John's, Washington, and Waryland in the Fifteenth Annual
Contest of the Oratorical Association of Marvland Colleges. In the
final debate, the debate for the Alumni Med'al, our society again carried off the
honors, her representatives winning the decision of the judges, and one of her
representatives winning the medal.

Especial mention should be made of the good work and attentive interest
which the new members of the society have shown. About thirty members of the
Freshman Class have been taken into active membership. They are taking an
active interest and an active part in all our programs and give promise to better
things yet to come. This has given the members an inspiration to make our
society the leader in all literary matters of the College.

The prospects for the future have never been brighter, and may the success
of the societv continue throughout the life of the College.

N January of 1860 the Mercer Literary Society, named in honor of
Dr. \\m. W. Mercer, who at that time was the largest stockholder
in the College, was organized for the cultivation of the social and
intellectual faculties of the students. The society was a great suc-
cess, the meetings were well attended, and minutes were strictly
recorded until November 23, 1889, when for some unknowni reason, all interest
in the society was lost. It was again organized in 1892, under the name of the
New Mercer Literary Society, which continued until December of 1894.

In the spring of the same year the Morrill Literary Society was organized
and in January, 1895, "The House of Commons" was formed. The last men-
tioned society was of short duration, and in Noveirber, 1896, the Morrill and New
Mercer Literary Societies were organized.

In the early days of the two societies many meetings were held in which a
great deal of rival rv and real interest was shown. Many of the subjects chosen
for discussion may seem a little ridiculous, as "Mental Faculties of the Sexes"
and "Eloquence or Music," but they attained the ultimate result — the power of
speech.

At present the interest in the New Mercer is being revived among the stu-
dents. At each meeting the entertainment committee announces a pre-arranged
schedule for the following meeting. All of these meetings are not given over to
strict literary work, but are interspersed with songs and music bv different mem-
bers of the society.

President Patterson has offered a beautiful loving cup to the society winning
three times in an annual inter-society debate. The society which wins the cu])
will have its n.ame and the year engraved upon it. With a growing school, and
a school which is each year attracting students of better all-round calibre there
ought to be two strong, active, literary societies. W'e regret that we do not have
a room for our ])ermanent quarters. However, considering the abnormal condi-
tions which have befallen us, we are proud to say that New Mercer has been
quite active during the past year. Her men taking a leading part in all the literary
activities of the Colleges and have n"'ade the name — New Mercer — stand oui
more prominent than ever before.

O doubt every course of study offered here at this College carries with
it attractions which prove most alluring to its pursuers ; otherwise
there would be no pursuers. However, be that as it may, and giving
all their just dues, it is most certain that no course we have looms up
with so gigantic an attraction as that of the Animal Husbandry
when it offers annually to three students a trip — obsolittely free of all expenses —
to the City of Chicago, and a chance for each to bring home a Silver Cup of
Honor and a four-hundred-dollar-scholarship to any of our numerous State Uni-
versities.

The three men composing this team — known as the Stock-Judging Team —
are usually selected from the Junior and Senior Classes about three weeks before
leaving for the contest, and as soon as they are chosen, every means is used by
the Professor of Animal Husbandrv to place in their hands the knowledge which
should equip them to return as victors.

The National Dairy Show, at which the contest takes place, is held in the
City of Chicago, usually in the month of November, and about sixteen States
are represented. This year arrangements were made wherebv that part of the
distance which the Maryland team covered during the night on the way out to
Chicago was covered during the day when returning, thus giving an opportunity
of seeing that part of the country surrounding the railroad over nearlv the
entire distance traveled ; and the views which were to be had of the vast, broad
fields of farm crops and livestock, dotted here and there with Western plans
for building improvements, was in itself a small education for the Eastern agricul-
tural student. The team remained in Chicago four days, which aft'orded ample
time to see the city's many wonderful sights. Probably the most interesting of
the numerous features taken in were the great slaughtering and packing plants
of Swift and Armour, and the buildings and remains of the World's Fair once
held in that city.

Maryland has now taken part in this Stock-Judging Contest each year since
1911, and while some of her teams have made better records than others, all have
acquitted themselves quite creditably. However, whether a team happens to win
the "Capital" or the "Boobie" prize, there can be no differentiation in the oppor-
tunities oft'ered for a wonderfully interesting, instructive and entertaining trip,
and it is exceedingly doubtful if any other three men in the college than those
three composing the annually selected Stock-Judging Team will ever have the
chance of taking such a trip under similar ideal conditions for grasping those
finer points which fall within the sphere of their particular course of study.

HE Students' Interstate Fruit Judging League was formed at Morgan-
town, W. \ a. The first contest was held at Morgantown under the
auspices of the University of West Mrginia on January 8, 1915,
and seven colleges were represented.

The object of the league is to promote the art and science of
pomology, fruit growing and the establishment of more uniform standards and of
higher ideals.

The first contest consisted in identifying and placing sixty plates of apples
containing twenty-five varieties. The Maryland team, which was represented by
Messrs. Montell, Gray and McCutcheon, stood sixth in the contest.

A large silver loving cup was offered by the West Mrginia State Horti-
cultural Society to the team scoring the highest number of points, and was won
by the New Jersey team. However, before this trophy can become the permanent
property of any institution it must be won by it three times in succession.

Maryland students should get busy. They ought to win the next contest.
Here is a splendid ppportunity to do something.

The second contest of the league will be held in the Fifth Regiment Armory
in Baltimore at the time of the annual meeting and exhibit of the Mar}'land State
Horticultural Society. That this will be a great advantage to all concerned — the
College, Horticultural Society, the fruit growers and, above all, those whose privi-
lege it may be to take part in the contest — goes without question. The students
here have already shown a keener interest in systematic pomology, and as a conse-
quence, more and better work was done in this branch than ever before. Stu-
dents making the best records in systematic pomology will be selected to repre-
sent the College in this contest. Professor Beckenstrater is chairman of the
committee on arrangements.

The large and varied exhibit (considered the best in the East) of the Mary-,
land State Horticultural Society will afiford excellent material for the contest.
W'e are aware of the fact that it is the best fruit exhibit East of the Rocky Moun-
tains, and here is an opportunity to show a large number of specialists coming
to this contest from over a wide range of territory that it really is so. Their opin-
ion will have great weight and will go far in establishing Maryland's name as a
great fruit producing State.

Let us hope, then, that our fruit growers will distinguish themselves by put-
ting up the best exhibit we ever had, and let us further hope that the students
who will have the honor of representing M. A. C. will further emphasize our
importance by winning the contest.

RIOR to 1893 there were no athletic teams at M. A. C, but since that
time athletics have been gradually ascending until now we rank
among the highest.

It was in the fall of '93 that Captain R. W. Silvester obtained
H. M. Strickler as athletic director and coach of our team. Captain
Silvester also negotiated for a loan of $5,000 to build a gymnasium, and it was
these two events that marked the hrst foothold of athletics in our College.

The fall of '93 saw the following teams on our football schedule : Johns Hop-
kins, Washington College, Episcopal High School, Rock Hill College. This
showed that the team was not wonderful but nevertheless creditable considering
the fact that it was the first season played by an organization representing this
school. The first ball team was organized the following spring and was cap-
tained by our noble Vice-President, Thomas H. Spence.

From this time on, athletics rose and fell with each rise greater than the suc-
ceeding fall, so that now our teams stand in prominence above those of our com-
petitors.

In the fall 1912 the policy of obtaining a graduate coach was adapted. The
services of H. C. Byrd, of the Class of "08, were obtained, and from that time on
a remarkable change has been noticeable in the strength of our teams.

In the winter of 1913 basket ball was started. Lack of suitable material was
noticeable and also a place to practice had to be found outside of College Park.
The football team of that season won the undisputed championship of this State,
defeating all State teams without being scored upon. These are the scores of
that year:

M. A. C. 26; Johns Hopkins, 0.

M. A. C, 46; Western Maryland College, 0.

M. A. C, 13; St. John's College, 0.

M. A. C, 20; Washington College, 0.

The baseball team of the spring following won the State championship.

The football team of 1914 once more won the championship, losing only
to Western Maryland College. The relay team has, to date, won all races
in which it has participated. Taken all in all, the rise was a remarkable one
at M. A. C. in the last few years, and to quote an intercollegiate record : "The
Maryland Agricultural College was represented by an eleven which not only
won a State championship, but which made a remarkable record in so doing.
The rise of this College in the last two or three years is astounding and reilects
great credit on those responsible."

"HINIE" HINDMAN

"Hinie" has taken a crack at several places
on the team. plaAnng- jj^iiard, tackle and full
back. In all positions he starred and his good
all-round playing won for him the honor of
ca]:)taining next year's team.

It is a familiar and welcome sight to see
"llinic" standing u]) along the line, with his
arms waA'ing, waiting for the man to start,
and it is woe to him who comes in his direction.

If "Hinnie" can lead as good a team as was
led by "Hip"" this year, there can be no kicks

PENNSYLVANIA MILITARY ACADEMY GAME

"001

mMti liBlSO-^ti

N answer to Coach Byrd's call f(ir foDtball candidates, fully fifty
men responded. "Curly" immediately put them through the
paces and soon had three teams ])icked. Some \ ery j)romising
material was present and indications piiinted to a prosperous
season. The old men knew, and the new men soon found out.
that football was no ladies" game, and that "Curly" meant lousiness.

( Jur first Contest was with llaltimore I'olytechnic on v^eptember twenty-
sixth. 'I'hese youngsters came over here and sprung a marked surprise. Be-
fore our men realized wdiat had happened the Baltimoreans had scored a
touchdown and very soon the game was o\er. lUit this defeat can readily
be overlooked since our team had only been on the field four days, while
"I'oly" had been practicing several weeks.

The first real game t)f the season was with Catholic Cni\'ersity of Wash-
ington. Our men journeyed to Brt)okland, accompanied by nearly all of the
student body, and everyone of the latter were joyous over the fact that they
^vcnt and saw old M. A. C. cajjture the tirst college game of the season. In
this game the real worth of the team could be seen and, although our goal was
sexeral times endangered, the linemen were always at the right spot to ])revent
a touchdown. The (jniy scormg of the game was a single touchdown l)y Axt, a new
man, who had played extrcineiy g()()<l ball for Baltimore Cit\ College befcjre he
placed his future in the hands of M. A. C.

( )n ( )ctober tentli, the team traveled to Westminster to tackle for the firs*^
time a State team. Those who made the tri]) will ne\er forget its ])leasures and
agonies. They went frcjm College to Baltimore by train and in that citv engaged
autoiiKjhiles to take them to Westmin.ster. The automobiles, if the\- may be called
.such, were verv much lacking in that necessary quality called "go," and when they
finally reached W estern Maryland College, there remained hardly time to dress
before going on the field. Rather than dclav the game, the men went to play
without anything to eat since early n^orning, with the result that, although they
plaxed brilliantly under the circumstances, we were defeated by a score of 20 to 13.

Following this game, our men had two weeks in which to i)reiiare for the
b)hns Hopkins contest. As usual, we went over to Baltimore, never fearing
defeat, but not overconfident. Hopkins had forever been a hard team for us to
tackle, and when our men plowed through them for two touchdowns, while holding
them scoreless, there was rejoicing without bounds. After the game, a long
snake line was formed by the M. A. Ceasars and very .'oon Hopkins followed suit.
The scoring was done by Derrick, who made both touchdowns, and Hindman,
who kicked both goals. In this game Derrick showed his worth, and this was
speedily recognized by the St. John's team, all of whom witnessed the contest.

179

Just three days later, on October 27 , the team again took a journey, this time
to Annapolis, the object being to humiHate St. John's. This feat was accom-
plished in a glorious manner, being the result of a touchdown li\- T'cnnington, a
goal by Knode and a drop kick by Mess. In this game "Happy" made a beautiful
drop kick from the 40-yard line, the ball going squarely over the bar. The touch-
down was the result of a forward pass by Derrick to "\'ic"' Pennington, who
caught the ball and would have run all the way to the gym, in order to be sure'
of scoring, had not some one tackled him before he got to the fence. The win-
ning of this game was a great feat, inasmuch as the team had played a very
strenuous game just three days previous with Johns Hopkins.

The next contest was with Washington College at Chestertown, on Noveirber
sixth. This game also fell to our team's onslaught by the tune of 3 to 0. The
score was the result of a drop kick by "Happy" Mess, who once more showed
the prowess of his toe. Those who saw the game claimed that the W'ashingtonians
should have lost by a larger margin, as their quality of ball did not compare to that
put U]) by the Farmers. This victory was the clinching hold on the championshi])
of Maryland, making two consecutive championships in football fall to our hands.

The Gallaudet College of W ashington was the next team to be tackled by
our men and although the M. A. Ceasars put up a plucky hght, they were out-
classed and so lost by the score of 2Z to 0. The feature of the game was the
wonderful interference put up by the Kendall Greeners, and it was this factor,
without a doubt, which won the game for them.

The last game of the season was staged at Chester, Pennsylvania, with the
Pennsylvania Military College on Thanksgiving Day. In return for the beating
which they meeted to our men the year before, they receixed one of the worst
beatings of the year, being swept off their feet with a hnal count of 26 to 0. With
the hnish of this game there were n^any football men who heaved sighs of relief,
and relaxed from the heavy strain under which they had been since the middle of
September.

Thus ended a very successful football sea.^-on, and coming right upon the
championship of the previous year was a commendable feat — one which wdll stay
in the minds of those who saw the games for a long while.

Too much credit cannot be given "Curl}-" Pyrd, to whose faithful, earnest
and never ceasing work is partly due the glory accomplished by the team of
1914-1915.

"HIP" ROWLAND

"Hip" Bowland entered M. A. C. in 1911,
coming- from Washington College, where he
was a star footl>all player. The fall he entered
here saw him in the line and there he has
stayed for ft)ur years, doing wonderful work
with his untold strength. His ability and worth
were recognized by his teammates and his elec-
tion as Captain for the season of 1^U4 was a
proper reward for his good work.

Although suffering from several injuries,
he broke up many plays and deserves a hard
earned position on the All Maryland Team.

"HIP" BOWLAND

"NICK" CARTER

Here we have "Nick," the best looking
man on the football team. "Nick" hails from
Annapolis and prol:)ably did not like the looks
of St. John's, so thought he would take a
chance with M. A. C.

His favorite position on the team is full
back and when he "hit the line" with his speed
and "beef," the linemen thought a cyclone had
struck them. "Nick" is similar to the famous
dime novel hero "Nick" Carter in that he is
some football player and a shining light with
the ladies.

'NICK" CARTER

"VIC" PENNINGTON

If "Vic" is sleepy in classes, he makes up
for it on the gridiron.

The "Queen of Cab's House" went out
for football when he landed here and stuck
all through the remaining years. He did not
receive much attention until this past season,
wdien he stood in the limelight as a wonderful
end.

"Curly," the coach, hasn't enough praise
for "Vic," and says, "There is an example of
steadfastness, with the reward as high as one
could ask for — the honor of having played
every minute of every game.''

"MIKE" LEVIN

"Alike" is our midget player. Pie has tried
hard all his life to become a star player, with
dreams of being' hailed as the conquering hero.
U'hether or not his dreams will come true,
remains to be seen. He has worked faithfully
and tirelessly to earn a place on our team and
deserves all the credit he can possibly get.
When in practice he is there with the "fancy
stufif," but his nervousness overcomes him
when in a game. So here is hoping "Mike''
will some day be seen in the l)ig leagues.

tlie first call for candidates for baseball this spring, a large number
of jironiising men reported, and all indications pointed toward a
\er\- successful season.

We had lost one of our ])itchers, Hoffecker, First liaseman
Montgomery, Star Third I'.aseman Shi])ley, and our entire outfield.
These positions had to be hlled by new men., with a consequence that there was
great rivalry for the open ])laces on the team. First base has been ably filled by
( Jberlin, who was also a star in football, while third base is now occupied by
"Alike" Levin, who has been working hard for a i)osition on the team for three
years. For (mttielders we have Day, Mcllrien, Perkins, ljOj)st and Donovan to
pick from, while in the ])itching line we have added Chichester in addition to Der-
rick, Ate Henry and Siegert. The first two will have to bear the brunt of the battle
this season, as the other two are not quite equal to the emergency.

A few games with Washington High School were played previous to the
opening of the season, but these games were only ])ractice games and did not
count in the final reckoning, 'khe season oi)ened with a game with Catholic Uni-
versity at linokland. It was the initial contest for both teams, and owing to
the rivalr\' existing between the two institutions, both were out for blood. When
the full nine innings had been played, the scorekeeper found that C. U. had c(jme
out on the long end by the tune of 4 to 1, although the game was a great deal more
closely contested than the score indicates. Harvey Derrick officiated on the
mound ff)r us, pitching a splendid game for so early in the season, but was unfor-
tunate in the outcome, due to the fact that C. U. ])layed better all-round ball. This
game ]»oiiite(l out son-.e weak places on the team and e\er}'one expected the team
to make a grand showing thereafter.

( )n A])ril first Ctjrnell Universit^• opened its season with a game on our home
grounds, s]>ringing a good "A])ril Fooks" joke on us. They had things just about
their own way throughout the game, and at the end of it came out victorious with
a score of 10 to 1. Again we were entirely outplayed in the box, on the field and
at the bat. Derrick started for us, but lasted only \]ve innings, when he was
rej)laced b\' AlcHenrv, who fared no better. Taken all in all, it was not a typical
representation of the baseball that our team was capable of playing.

187

The next dav another game was scheduled with Corneh, and a complete
reversal of form was shown by us. As both Derrick and McHenry had been used
in the game the day before, it was up to Chichester, a new boy, to hold the fort.
He succeeded in doing this in big league style, holding the Ithicans to four scat-
tered hits and striking out several Cornell batsmen. We were the lirst to score,
doing so in the hrst inning. In the fifth Cornell tied the score when Clary knocked
the ball over the left field fence for a home run, the only score they were able to
get during the entire game. Things went along nip and tuck until the twelfth,
when Knode was hit, stole second, and scored on Oberlin's single, thus ending the
game. It was a brilliant extra-inning game, one well worth witnessing, both
for clean fielding and excellent pitching by Chichester for us and Russell for
Cornell. Chichester showed a marvelous form, being as composed as if he were
a regular in a world's series game. Too much credit cannot be given him for
his performance that day.

(Jur game with William and Mary was cancelled by that team, since they were
unable to take the trip.

The following Saturday our team journeyed to Baltimore to encounter the
Johns Jrlopkins University in the first game for the State cham])ionship Chiches-
ter, due to his great showing against Cornell, was selected to do the twirling for
the M. A. Ceasars, in hopes that he would repeat his performance of the week
before. We started off brilliantly, the first man up making a home run. Ihit this
did not last long, as they came back with two tallies. From then on it was a
close contest, with Johns Hopkins always one run to the good, and it was with
this advantage that the game came to a close. The linal score stood 7 to 6 in their
favor. This game was featured by hard hitting, Ho])kins getting two home runs
"while we corralled three home runs, one by Knode, and two by Mess, and a three-
base hit by Perkins.

The next Alondav West \ irginia came for a game, hoping to repeat their
victory of the previous year. They were successful, defeating us 4 to 2 in ten
innings. Derrick pitched this contest and deserved to win, but errors lost the
game for him.

Now that the losses are out of our system, it is hoped and expected that we
will capture the remainder of the scalps we try for. About one-third of the games
have been played, but this goes to press, so with it goes the wishes of success in
the remainder of the games.

UST before the Christmas hoHdays, a preHminary meeting of the
track candidates was called. Twenty men enthusiastically re-
sponded, and after a few preliminary arrangements had been made
concerning outfits, the date was set to begin training January sixth.
The first meet in which our men were entered was held Satur-
day, February thirteenth, at Conyention Hall, in AX'ashington, under the auspices
of the George Washington Uniyersity. In this meet our team showed to better
advantage than it had at any other it had participated in for several years, and
the team itself, as well as its supporters, had reason to feel proud of its showing.

The first event in which we were represented was the 50-yard dash. "Jimmy''
\^incent won first place in his heat and finished third in the final, against men from
all other colleges, as the event was open to all. Brown, Axt, and Swartz also ran
well in this event but not getting first in their heats did not qualify for the finals.

Probably one of the most interesting and exciting events of the evening was
the race won by Lee Pennington in the 880. He showed his heels to all comers and
easily won his race.

Both relay teams won their races ; the first team beating our old rivals, St.
John's. The team consisted of Coggins, Montell, Morris and Grace. The second
team, composed of Axt, Swartz, Vincent and Rakeman, easily defeated Gallaudet
in the time of 2 minutes 39 seconds.

The following Saturday our men traveled to Baltimore to the meet given by
the Johns Hopkins University. In this meet our first relay team, of Morris,
Pennington, Montell and Grace, again defeated St. John's by a large margin.
The second team defeated the Howard Athletic Team of Baltimore without much
effort, Axt, Brown, Rakeman and Vincent having things their own way all through
the race. Whitney Aitcheson ran a beautiful race in the open mile, pitted against
such men as Jack Tait of Toronto. Aitcheson caught the lead in the beginning
and held it throughout the race, winning by ten yards. Including this meet, our
men had secured a total of nineteen medals in two meets, in itself quite a dis-
tinction.

The last indoor meet in which we participated came off on Saturday, Febru-
ary twenty-seventh, at Convention Hall, in Washington. It was held under the
auspices of the Georgetown University and turned out to be one of the most suc-
cessful meets of the season.

For the first time during the indoor season our men failed to capture a place
in the meet. The relay team, however, easily won its race, being pitted against
Gallaudet men.

193

]\Iorris, the first man to run for M. A. C, took the pole on the first turn,
and touched Pennington ofif a good five yards ahead of his man. "Penny" widened
the gap to about fifteen yards, while Montell, who ran third, increased the distance
fuUv twent^•-fi\•e yards. This left very little for our last man, Grace, to do, so he
took things easy and won bv half a lap. Grace had not been well before the meet,
so his work deserves s|)ecial credit.

As this book goes to the press we are scheduled for a dual meet with Cath-
olic University of Washington. We also have entered the relay team in the
meet given by the University of Pennsylvania.

"MONTY" MONTELL

It is not known who first put it into
"Monty's" head that he cuuld run, but whoever
did it, knew what he was talking about. He
mav not be a moving picture runner, but when
it comes to delivering the goods, he is right
there. Anyone who has seen him run in the
mile knows what he can do, while his position
on the relay team shows that, as a quarter-
miler, he is yevy hard to l)eat. As someone
said, "Monty is the most impro\-ed runner in
school and will show them all sr)mething when
the meet comes ofif. '

>^/iv.^wK>*^ "MONTY" MONTELL

"DUCK" PENNINGTON

Some say that the only way to make
Lee run his best is to say, "Quack, quack," and
he will think he is after a duck in Harve-de-
Grace. Before Lee landed here he received
splendid training chasing ducks around the
marshes, so it is no wonder that he shines on
a muddy track. He is a representative on our
relay team and this honor alone is a proof
of his ability as a quarter-miler. In the half he
also shines, having won a medal for beating
all comers in a recent half-mile meet.

HEN the first of spring- rolled around, a call was sent out for
lacrosse candidates, with a response of nearly thirty men. It
was seen that several of last year's team were lacking ; the
missing men being Truitt, Coster, Rogers and Pyle. These open
places were much sought for by the new men and last year's
subs, so there was plenty of hard work for all those out.

Captain T. D. Gray soon had his men working hard. ])racticing in passing
the ball, catching it and shooting goals. He. himself, attended to keeping
the ball out of the net and it took a good pass to get it by him.

About the first of April, sides were chosen and scrimmages were started,
that soon turned into ones for real blood. The old men were working hard to
keep their positions while the new men were trying their best to give a good
enough account cjf themselves to claim a position on the twelve. We have a
good new man in Axt. who had previously played for Baltimore City College and
his aggressiveness soon won him a place on the team.

The first game in this line of sports was played on April the fourteenth
with llaltimore City College as the opponent. The team representing us
that day consisted of ten Senic^rs, one Sophomore and one Sub-Freshman,
The game was hotly contested throughout and many hair-raising plays
occurred which brought the audience to its feet as one. City College was the
first to score, but our men soon evened matters. Then the next goal was
shot by one of our men, putting us in the lead. Very soon afterward one of
City College's men shot a goal, tieing the score. It was at this time that the
excitement was keenest and both sides were fighting hard for the advantage.
Just a few minutes before the end of the game one of the City College men
managed to shoot another goal making the score 3-2 against us. Before the
game had progressed much more the whistle blew and the game was at an
end. In this way we lost our first game of lacrosse.

This year the Athletic Council has admitted lacrosse to the standard
athletics so it is expected that a greater amount of interest will be shown in
this sport than in the past. Admitting lacrosse to the group of standard
athletics means that the eciuipment will be bought by the College and not by
the individual players, and for this reason it is expected and hoped that better
teams will be turned out — ones wdiich will reflect as much glory on M. A. C.
as the other sports have done.

Everyone knows "Pete" for his pleasant-
ness and ready smile at all times. Besides be-
ing a good all-round fellow, he is a good tennis
player, playing at all times a heady and con- ^
sistent game. Coupled with being one of the |,
team, he is manager, so one may always see ,|
"Pete" busy preparing for some match. This ■$
year he arranged a fine schedule, all the <^
matches being played on our home grounds. '$
This is the first year in several that we have
been able to witness so many matches on our
courts with such good teams as he has pitted
our men against. As player, manager and
friend, "Pete" certainly has made good this
year.

"BOMMY" BLUNDON

As the saying goes, "He's little, but oh,
my !" It is a good one in this case, for although
"Bommy" is small in stature, he is quite large
when it comes to playing tennis. He lives close
to a court in Riverdale and it has been rumored
that he has played there so often that one night
not so very long ago, he strolled out in his
sleep and practiced a few strokes. AMiether
that is true or not, those who have played
against him know that he has a strong stroke
and sends a ball that is hard to return.

N order to provide recreation for those students, who are not other-
wise engaged in athletic acti\'ities. the College, some years ago,
had three tennis courts built. Since the building of the courts
they have been constantly utilized and probably more students
participated in this healthy outdoor exercise than any other one
branch of athletic activity here at College.

However, it was not until a few years ago that a regular tennis team was
organized and during the first two years following its organization but few matches
with other colleges were played. Recently, however, such keen interest has
been shown by students in this sport that cjuite a number of intercollegate
matches have been scheduled.

Last year the tennis team made quite a creditable showing, having won
three matches and losing only one. The matches won were those with
Catholic l/niversity, Gallaudet and Patterson l^ark Tennis Club ; we were
defeated by Western Maryland.

^^'hen the present scholastic year opened the prospects for a winning team
were not very bright. Ilgenfritz, last year's star player, did not return to
school and two other regulars. Gray and Deeley, had graduated with the Class
of '14. In order to get a line on the ability of some of the new men a tourna-
ment was held in the early fall in which there was quite a number of com-
petitors. Ere the tournament was over the Manager and Cajjtain had dis-
covered that there were several of the new men whose ability as tennis play-
ers was far above the average and it was apparent that the loss of three of last
years would not be felt so keenly — as first supposed.

Consequently, when the team was reorganized this spring it was found
that not only was it very well balanced but also that it was probably the
strongest aggregation of tennis players that had ever represened M. A. C.

The season opened very favorably for us, Dickinson College suffering
defeat at our hands by the score of 5-1. The remarkable playing c^f Amigo,
our Cuban tennis ex])ert was easily the feature of the tournament.

The remaining games U])on the schedule consist of matches with the
University of Maryland, April 30; v^t. John's, May 7: Western ^Maryland ;
May 15; Catholic University, May 22, and St. John's, May 29.

In all probal)ility one of the most interesting spring tournaments that
this College has ever witnessed will be held this June and it is a surety that
the match will be very closely contested.

Tennis is becoming one of the favorite s])orts here at M. A. C. and it
is to be hoped that the teams of the future will be e\'en more successful than
those of the past.

Can® Rmsla

HE cane rush between the Freshmen and the Sophomore classes,
which was held on Friday afternoon, September 25, was wit-
nessed by the entire student body, the faculty, and a large number
of visitors from nearby towns, all of whom thoroughly enjoyed
the contest. It was the first contest of its kind ever held at
M. A. C. and aroused so much enthusiasm on all sides that it will no doubt
prove to be an annual event.

Professor Richardson was referee and had charge of the contest, assisted
by Messrs, Brigham, Darrow, Byrd and Professors Harrison and Bomberger.
The cane, which was a stout piece of hickory, was placed in the centre of the
field by Professor Richardson and the opposing classes were each drawn up
in battle array ecjuidistant from the much longed for cane. The costumes
varied ; they consisted of baseball, football and track paraphernalia, together
with old discarded clothing such as would withstand the strain of the terrible
onslaught.

Finally after several false starts the gun was fired and the contest was on.
James and Pyle of the Freshmen class were on their toes and were the first to
reach the cane, and by superhuman effort succeeded in retaining the same until
time was called at the end of the allotted ten minutes. Derrick and Dearstyne
did noble work for the losers. The fight raged furiously and when time was
called the cane was found to be about six feet over the line and to the credit of
the Freshmen class who were proclaimed undisputed victors.

The main object of this contest was to create a friendly rivalry between
the two classes, and it is hoped that this spirit may continue to exist throughout
the sul)secjuent class engagements.

The Freshmen by this victory have succeeded in flying their class flag on
the campus until by subsequent engagements the Sophs prove their superiority.

NOTHER invention of Mr. Darrow's which caused no small amount of

excitement, was the tug-o'-war across Paint Branch, between the Freshmen

and Sophomores. Previous to this time the Freshmen had defeated the

Sophs in the Cane Rush, and so had gained the privilege of flying their flag on

the campus.

210

In this tug-o'-\var both sides struggled vahantly for an advantage for se\eral
minutes. At first it seemed as though the Sophs would have it all their way but
linally the Freshmen got their footholds and proceeded to pull the weary Sophs
into the branch.

The result of this contest was a surprise to everyone, since it was fully
expected that the Sophs would be able to pick out stronger and more experienced
men than the Freshies, but it was not so, and the flag of 1918 still waved from the
crest of the College campus.

HE Sophomores were determined to beat the Freshmen in some line of sport,
so the next contest between the two classes was a pool tournament.

Four matches were scheduled, three singles and one double. The win-

ner of the tournament was to be the side that received the highest number of points
during the matches and not the side that won the majority of the games, as is
generally the case in other sports.

The representatives of the Sophs were "Happy"" Mess, Harry Smith and
"Legs" Medinger. For the Freshman K. C. Posey, Dietrich and Pyle were selected.
The first game was between Pyle and Smith, the latter coming out victorious
with a score of 103 — 58. The second game proved to be the best of the series.
Mess and Posey were the participants of this game, which "Happy'" won with a
score of 100^ — 92. In the third contest between Dietrich and Medinger, the former
came out with the honors, the score being 104 — 73. In the doubles Posey and
Dietrich defeated Smith and Mess, with the count being 104 — 89. The final count-
ing of points showed that the Sophs had 365 against 358 for the Freshmen. The
referee of the series was Professor Myron Creese, while the scorers were Kelly
and Wright. High runs were made by Smith, who ran 13 and 11 in his game
with Pyle.

Soon after this tournament the Sophomore flag was seen flying from the
top of Science Hall, while the Freshman flag was conspicuous by its absence.

ENCOURAGING.

Dr. McDonnell, in Chemistry: "If anything should go wrong in this experi-
ment we. and the laboratory with us. might be blown sky-high. Come closer, gen-
tlemen, so that you may be better able to follow me."

JUST OUT OF THE CITY.

Prof. R. : "Gentlemen, notice how the use of stanchions conserves space.''
Student: "Professor, do they have to put cows close together like that to
make condensed milk?"

THE WAY IT SEEMED.
A little boy who happened to be on a train to Chicago was sleeping in an
upper birth. In the night he awakened and sat up.

"Do you know where you are. Ford?" asked Brown.

"Of course I do." he answered promptly. "I'm in the upper drawer."

NATURE'S ABHORRENCE.
Professor in Physics, teaching his Sophomore class: "What is a vacuum,
Mr. Frazee?" he asked.

"I have it in my head." said Frazee, "but I just can't express it."

DESCRIBED.

Hedley : "Pa, what would you call a motorcycle?"

Pa : "A motorcycle, my son, is an ordinary bicycle driven crazy by an over-
indulgence in gasoline."

Dentist: "Have you been anywhere else?"

Patient: "I went to see the Chemist in our village."

Dentist: "And what idiotic advice did he give you?"

Patient: "'He told me to come to see vou."

213

"That's a nice looking fellow who has just come in,"' said the young man who
was dining with his best girl. "Is he a friend of yours?''
"Yes, indeed, I know him well?" laughed the maiden.
"Shall I ask him to join us?"

"Oh," said the girl, blushing, "this is so sudden."
Sudden? What do you mean?" he asked in surprise.
"Why — why that's our young minister."

Fond Mother: "Why don't you want to go to heaven, dear?"'
Terror: "Because I've got so many warm friends below."

COLLEGE WIDOW.

Marie : ''At the place where I was spending my vacation this summer, a
fresh young farmer tried to kiss me. He told me he had never kissed a girl in
his life."

Ethel: "What did you say to him?"

Marie: "I told him that I was no Agricultural Experiment Station."

CAN IT.

AX'right to Hall: "Can't Rohn push that i)encil?"
Hall : "A pencil must be lead."

IN THE DARK AGES.

\\'hen Rudolph Brownies' son arrived
He looked just like his poppy,

In fact the doctah done declared
He was a carbon copy.

^IT'

Frazee (attempting to draw the cork cambium in Sophomore Plant His-
tology) : "Professor, I can't draw this cork."

Professor (noting Frazee's red nose): "Mr. Frazee, you shouldn't have
any trouble. You look as if you had plenty of experience."

GETTING IT DOWN FINE.

"The graspinist man I ever knowned," said Uncle Jerry Peebles, "was an old
chap named Snoopins. Somebody told him once that when he breathed, he took
in oxygen and gave oiT carbon. He spent a whole day tryin' to find out which of
those two gases cost the most if you had to buy 'em. He wanted to know whether
he was making or losing monev when he breathed.

A HORRIBLE BLUNDER.

A young lady got Charlie Cockey on the 'phone and asked him to call. At
the time Charlie was shaving and mentioned it to Her when he arrived.
Young Lady: "Yes, and I see you forgot your upper lip.""

An Irishman was looking for work in a garage and on heing asked what he
knew about machinery, he told the owner he knew the sound of any engine. A
Packard was cranked up and he said "Packard." The next was a Buick and he
said "Buick." Just then two dogs started to fight in the back of the garage and
upset several tin cans. Immediately the Irishman responded, "That's a Ford,
boss."

Prof. Symons, in his rambles through the State, sto[)i)ed at a farmer's gate.
The farmer was standing by and Prof, asked if he could go through.

The farmer looked at him for awhile and replied: "Yes, I guess so. A
hay-wagon just went through."

Dope: "When I was a boy, you know, the doctor said that if I didn't stop
smoking cigarettes I would become feeble-minded."
Miss B.: "A\'ell, why didn't you stop?"

Rebecca: "(Jh, papa., pai)a, Mikey got hit in the eye mit a baseball."
The Old Man: "Sure, I knew he'd break dem new spectacles."

B. M.: "That's the stuft'. What were they?"

A. D. : "(Jne was to get out and the other was to stay out."

the editor) :

"Dear Sir: — Seeing as you say how fish is good for the brains, what kind

E cannot say what the first College Annual looked
like. We were fortunate that we were not present
to respond to roll call when it appeared. However,
the chances are two to one that it contained much
the same material that is found in this volume.

Each RiCvEiLLi; is, and of necessity must be, similar to its
predecessors. \\> have tried to picture, preserve and advance the
spirit of M. A. C. as it appeared during the past year. The ver-
dict remains with you as to whether or not we have succeeded.

We feel that we have been most fortunate in the co-opera-
tion that we have received from the students, faculty and other
interested parties. We would be most ungrateful if we did not
express the appreciation that we so deeply feel. We want to
assure our friends that every effort that has been made in our
behalf is appreciated by us.

To the photographers — Hall, Kisliuk and Grace — we are
deeply indebted for the pictures that appear in the preceding
pages.

Our art work has been done largely by students, of which
M. E. Rohn had charge. One artist not connected with the insti-
tution made contributions to us for which we feel indebted.

To each of the deans who so kindly prepared a short sketch
of their career we also acknowledge our gratitude. For other
literary contributions we thank Messrs. Darrow, Brigham and
Prof. Richardson.

To all whose support and interest made our task a pleasure
we again express our deepest thanks.

UR college days are numbered now
And go forth to the world must we.

As the ladened ship its anchor weighs
And so silently turns to sea.

'Tis but a few more fleet-winged hours
When our little band must part,

And may God-speed go forth with each
To cheer his lonely heart.

Four long and trying but happy years
Have we worked and toiled away.

Forever counting the hours to pass
Ere the dawn of this proud day.

This day has come ; we but leave

Behind us for our friends,
This little book that they may know

Just how our story ends.

And when you read herein and find

Some task we left undone.
Remember that really we are but boys-

And that boys must have their fun.
