FOREWORD
With a hope that this volume with
its compilation of scenes and familiar
faces, which are so firmly stamped
upon the graduates mind, may in a
measure serve to intensify the memo-
ries of a most successful undergrade
uate career, and at the same time he
a tangible record of that career, we,
the members of the Junior class, offer
to the Seniors the
XIHETEEH rWETiTT SEVEK
REVEILLE
EXPLAKATIOK OF
THEME
A desire to instill in this hoo\ the simple
dignity, the preciseness, and the beauty to
he found in the old Grecian sculpture,
caused the editor to select this theme as a
modest, and yet inspiring hac\ground upon
which to base the art wor\ of the boo\.
Each title page has for its introduction the
drawing of a figure, some being in a re
stored state and others being exact replicas
of the figures unearthed from the ruins of
old Greece; each figure, so used, being
appropriate, according to Grecian
mythology, to the subject in
its respective division

TO
Hon. SAMUEL M. SHOEMAKER
Chairman oi the Board of Regents
OF THE
University of Maryland
Ji? Kecoguitiou and in Honor of His Long and
Untiring Seriicc for the Public Good of the
State of Maryland, this Nineteen Twenty-
Seven Volume of the Reveille is Dedicated.
A United States Senator once said that a man really becomes great when everybody
begins to call him by his first name. Whether or not that be true of greatness of accom-
plishment, certainly no truer measure may be found of how well a man stands in the
public esteem. And if there is one man who is, and should be, known for what he has done
for others, that man is Samuel M. Shoemaker, and it is as Sam Shoemaker that he is
known to the people of Maryland.
As a member of the Baltimore County School Board for twenty-five years, now
Chairman of that Board, as progenitor of Maryland's system of good roads, as first Presi-
dent of the State-wide coalition of agricultural organizations, as Chairman of the Board
of Regents of the University of Maryland, the imprint of his efforts is deep and broad.
No man has done more for his State.
The students of this University consider it an honor to give this recognition to the
man who is devoting his life to the public welfare of Maryland.

HISTORY OF THE SENIOR CLASS
ITH new found dignity we stand in cap and gown, facing the future with
heads held high, a smile of hope on our lips, yet a choking in our throats at
the thought of all we are leaving behind. We pause for a moment to review
the four years of our life at Maryland. We see ourselves as Freshmen — a ludicrous
group of Rats and Rabbits. The faces of our officers stand out: Jack Tonkin,
Roger Whiteford, Helen Beyerle, and Monroe Leaf.
We again see ourselves — as Sophomores: Jack Tonkin is class president and "Money"
Leaf, treasurer. The other offices are filled by "Benny" LeSeur, Kathryn Stevenson,
and Roger Whiteford. Recollections come of an over-powering egotism and of revenge
handed out to the unoffending freshmen. We are not so proud of this year.
Our Junior year passes before us. Our class is everywhere bringing new glories to
our Alma Mater. There are juniors high in scholastic standing and in all branches of
athletics. Vividly we remember our Junior Prom. And now, too, that memory fades,
and we see ourselves in the coveted role of Seniors.
It is hard to believe that, having reached this goal, our happiness is not complete. We
realize with sadness that the few remaining days of our stay at Maryland are fast slip-
ping by, that we may never see again many of our friends. To everything we see or
touch, we whisper goodbye. Yet goodbye is but au revoir, for we will return, and in
returning hope to find a greater and more famous Maryland.
Gertrude V. Chesnut, Hisiorian.

JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY
THE Reveille of 1927, in a measure, represents the history of tlie Junior Class.
It shows that the Class of 192 8 has come up to and in some cases excelled the
standards set them by the Seniors. We have perhaps been slow in getting our start
but wc have now gained a position in student affairs and activities not to be easily
attained by our successors. This is truly our biggest year in college, because we have all
advanced to the point where wc can appreciate everything we do and learn, and
readily develop our faculties.
We have had our share of athletes, social leaders, office holders, and there seems
no necessity for enumerating them. Needless to say, our Junior Prom stands out from
other dances of the year because of the fact it was held in Washington, and was so well
conducted. We also greatly enjoyed the proms of the other classes, and especially the
Junior-Senior German.
Next year will bring the climax to our history at Maryland. Let us hope that we
will accomplish something worth while that will make a name for ourselves and will
leave a permanent record behind us.
Our officers have remained very nearly the same throughout the three years: Donald
Adams, President; Jack Savage, Vice-President; Frances Freeny, Secretary; William
Press, Treasurer; Horace Hampton, Student Representative, and IVed Linkous, Sergeant-
at-Arms.
It hardly seems possible that the class of 1927 will not be with us in person, next
year. It is with regret that we say goodbye to them. Seniors, Maryland is proud of
you, and we know you are proud of Maryland, which is as it should be.

FOR the first time since the acquisition of the present Gymnasium, the Junior

precedent for future Proms.

SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY
A COLLEGE education, we are told, does not depend at first on books alone, but
rather on paddles of the upper classmen. So it seemed the first five months of
our college career. But "Rat Rules" came and departed as they always do, and
almost every one survived. It was not until March that permanent class officers were
elected, but once we were organized, things began to happen. A little later, the Fresh-
man Frolic and Freshman Prom were given. The Prom was one of the best informal
dances of the year, and it might be added, that the Frolic was thoroughly successful
both from the stage and from the windows where the cabbage and tomatoes made
their entry.
This year, a selection of dignified Sophomores, under the guidance of the class
officers, Gordon Kessler, President; Bruce Billmeyer, Vice-President; Olyure Hammack,
Secretary; Emmett Loane, Treasurer; Duncan Clark, Student Representative, and John
Keenan, Sergeant-at-Arms, returned to school and proceeded to put the "Rats" through
their tricks. We had a great time being bossy, giving orders, and seeing them obeyed.
That "hard-boiled" attitude cannot ever be maintained again. It has been a great year
for Maryland and a great one for the Sophomore Class. Athletics, scholarship, social
activities have each come to the fore as the year passed. Every member tried to put
over the idea that this institution was one of the best, and truly a worth-while place to
attain culture, progress, and friendship.

HISTORY OF THE FRESHMAN CLASS
THE latter part of September found the campus of this old and honored University
thronged with a multitude of young men and women, eager and expectant, and
anxious to be initiated into all the "Maryland" secrets and traditions. We, the
Freshman Class, had arrived. The Sophomores soon informed us with particular pains
that we were mere "rats," and before long we were parading the campus with black
and gold skull caps, green tics, name tags, rolled-up pants, and white socks. Several
weeks after classes started, we elected our officers: Albert Heagy, President; George
Roberts, Vice-President; George Madigan, Treasurer; Margaret Wisner, Secretary; Fred
Ribinitzki, Sergeant-at-Arms. Better officers could not have been found.

HISTORY OF THE CO-EDS
THE first girl graduate of the University of Maryland received her diploma in
June, 1920. She was the only girl in her class, but year by year, the number of
girls increased until now, in 1927, there are two hundred and forty-one girls
enrolled in the University.
The question of housing all of these girls is a serious one because of the lack of
enough dormitories to accommodate them. There are three dormitories on the hill,
Gerneaux Hall, the Practice House, and the "Y" Hut. Three of the sororities have houses
at which a number of girls can stay; and finally, there is one approved in the park, the
Homestead, run under the same rules as the dormitories.
It is interesting to note that none of the school dormitories were built with the
intention of their being used as such. The first place at which girls were housed was
Gerneaux Hall. This had once been the home of Captain Sylvester who at one time was
President of the Maryland Agricultural College. It was later turned into a dormi-
tory for boys who had won scholarships to Maryland State College. In 1920, it was
remodeled and made into the first girls' dormitory. The Practice House was then built
for the use of the Home Economics girls. It was also used as a dormitory because of
the immediate need. The "Y" Hut was first built as an auditorium and chapel. During
the war, it was turned into a Y. M. C. A. by the R. O. T. C, and not until a few years
ago were partitions put up so that it could be used by girls as a dormitory. It is hoped
that the State Legislature will grant enough money for a much needed dormitory at
its next meeting in two years' time.
Although girls have been here but a few years, they have established a number of
traditions. In 1922, the Women's Student Government Association was formed. The
same year, the first girls' rifle team was organized. In 1923, tennis was introduced as a
sport for girls at Maryland and the first team was selected. This was also the first year
that May Day was celebrated by a procession and festival.
The year 1924 saw the growth of the Women's Athletic Association. Along with
this came an increased interest in athletics; intra-mural basketball was begun; the first
tennis tournament was held; and a Swimming Club was formed. In the spring of 1925,
a Women's Senior Honor Society was introduced; the outstanding Senior girls were
honored by being chosen as members.
Just before the first woman student was graduated in 1920, she formed the first
sorority on the campus, Sigma Delta. The following year Lambda Tau was organized,
which became a chapter of Alpha Omicron Pi in 1924. Also in 1924, the Kappa Xi
Sorority was recognized. In the fall of 1926, the fourth sorority was formed. Alpha
Upsilon Chi. These sororities have united in forming the Pan-Hellenic Society in which
sorority questions are discussed and decided upon.
Our Dean of Women, Miss Adele Stamp, came to the University in 1922 and has
really been the force behind the wheel in all the development of women's organizations.
She was the first Dean of Women to be at Maryland, and is so well liked that it is
hoped that she will be with us for many years to come.

WOMEN'S G^THLETIC c^SSOCIATION
THE Women's Athletic Association, sponsor and overseer of all women's athletics,
has had another successful year. Rapid strides in organization and numbers of
girls taking interest in the sports that Maryland offers has been evident since the
formation of this organization in the fall of 1924. The annual banquet in the spring
formed a fitting climax for the season.
The officers for the year were: Elizabeth Taylor, President; Mary Stewart York, Vice-
President; Elizabeth Corkins, Secretary; and Helen Beyerle, Treasurer.

was lost in dual competition.
The team came out with
third honors in the National

linquished its position as Na-

Washington who scored 2991.
Missouri came second with
2990, and Maryland third
with 2983.
Mary Jane McCurdy
Manager
In the Dot and Circle Trophy, Maryland lost to George Washington by one point,
the latter making a perfect score and our team made 499. Ten perfect scores were made
this season, which betters last years' record by four.
Julia Louise Behring, Helen Beyerle, Hazel Kreider, and Mildred Hislop were high
pointers and counted in the greatest number of matches. Mildred Hislop made a remark-
able record by dropping only seven points out of a possible 2700.
Due to the illness of Sergeant Hendricks, Mr. William McManus took up the position
of coach in the middle of the season.
Helen Beyerle and Julia Louise Behring will be lost to the team through graduation,
but Alma Essex, Mary Jane McCurdy, Frances Gruver, Mildred Hislop, Hazel Kreider,
Anita Peters, Clemencia Gause, Eliabeth Corkins, Elizabeth Garber, and four freshmen,
Alice Orton, Margaret Meigs, Virginia Fooks, and Catherine Barnsley will be available
next year. With such possibilities, it is hoped that we can even better the scores of
this year.
Helen Beyerle was Captain this year, and Mary Jane McCurdy held the position of
Manager.

TENNIS
OR some reason or other, tennis has not been as
popuhir a sport among the girls as it has been previ-
ously. This was no doubt due to the unfavorable
weather which we had during the time of the fall tourna-
ment and in the early spring.
The girls were late in getting their fall tournament
started this year, and by the time they had reached the
semi-finals the weather had become so unfavorable they
were unable to complete the tournament. From the results
of the matches, there seemed to be strong competition and
also some very good material for next year's tennis squad.
The spring tournament was also late in starting and at
the time the yearbook went to press, the schedule of
matches had just been posted. It was hoped that the girls
would play off the sets immediately after the Easter
holidays in order that the tournament would be completed
not later than the first of May.
The tennis squad was managed by Connie Church this year. She has been successful
in winning three consecutive tournaments and deserves a lot of credit for her work
with the tennis squad.

SWIMMING
FOR the first time in the history of Girls' sports,
swimming became an organized sport. Early last fall,
all girls interested in swimming were organized into
a class under the managership of Eleanor Freeny.
Due to the fact that we do not have a pool here at the
University, the girls took their dips at the Y. W. C. A.
pool in Washington. They originally planned to hold their
class at least every other week on Thursday night; but dur-
ing the colder weather in the winter the classes were dis-
continued for a time.
About thirty girls signed up for the class at the begin-
ning of the season and from their enthusiastic reports, the
classes will probably be even better attended in the future.
At some future time when the University has grown to Eleanor Freeny
that extent, it is hoped that we may have a swimming
pool of our own here at school, and that swimming will become one of the major sports.

rOUNG WOMEN'S CHRISTIAN e^SSOCIATION
THE Y. W. C. A. grew out of what was formerly called the Collci^e Women's
Christian Association. In 1923, the members of the C. W. C. A. decided to change
their name to Y. W. C. A. In April 1924, the local Y. W. C. A. received a charter
from the National Board of the Y. W. C. A. of the United States of America. The
purpose of the Y. W. C. A. is to meet the need for an all-campus religious organization
among the women students which will correlate and co-ordinate all the religious activities
for the women of the University. In co-operation with the Y. M. C. A., the Y. W. C. A.
assumes a major responsibility for the religious activities of the campus.

WOMEN'S STUDENT GOVERNMENT e^SSOCIATION
EVERY girl enrolled at the University is a member of the Women's Student Gov-
ernment Association. This shows the thoroughness of the co-operative spirit of
the girls in working for a successful system of student government. The Associ-
ation fosters the development of good scholarship and high ideals in standards of college
life as its aims. All social regulations for girls are made through their Executive Council
which is composed of elected representatives. All these rules are subject to the approval
of the Dean of Women. In order that the important offices open to girls may be dis-
tributed more fairly, the Women's Student Government Association has put into force
a Point System.
The girls are steadfastly behind the honor system as an aid to self-government and
the development of individu.il responsibility.

HOME ECONOMICS CLUB
WITH Omicron Nu, the oldest honorary Home Economics sorority, as an ultimate
goal, the Home Economics Club was founded in 1922. Election to membership
is based on interest in Home Economics work and its advancement and high
scholastic average.
The faculty members of the club are Dean Marie Mount, Mrs. Claribel Welsh, Mrs.
Frieda MacFarland, and Miss Edna B. McNaughton. Frances Gunby was President this
year, while Grace Warner was Vice-President; Roselle Bishoff was Secretary-Treasurer,
and Mary Stewart York was chairman of the Program Committee.
134
THE WOMEN'S SENIOR HONOR SOCIETY
IN the spring of 1925, the Women's Senior Honor Society was founded with the
purpose of "bringing together women students of the University of Maryland of
the Senior Class who have maintained a high standard of scholarship and leadership
and who have at all times showed their willingness to serve the best interests of the
University through its various organizations as well as by an actively loyal spirit toward
college authorities."
Only twenty per cent of the girls from the incoming Senior Class are eligible for
election. To be eligible a girl must have an average of B at the time of election and must
have completed three years of collegiate work. Early on the morning of Baccalaureate
Sunday an impressive public initiation is held.
The members this year were Helen Beyerle, President; Kathryn Stevenson, Vice-
President; Gertrude Ryon, Secretary-Treasurer, and Julia Louise Behring, Ellen Jane
Keiser and Eleanor Seal. Dean Adele Stamp is Honorary Member and Faculty Advisor.

IN 1925, the girls withdrew from the Interfraternity Council to form a Pan Hellenic
which would be more efficient in coping with the problems of girls' fraternities. It
has been the aim of these fraternities to work together for the co-operation of their
groups with the ideals of the college. They are organized into a Pan Hellenic to encourage
high scholarship, and to maintain healthful physical conditions in chapter houses and
dormitories.
Pan Hellenic stands fundamentally for preparation for service through character
building inspired in the close contact and friendship of fraternity life.

giRLS' "^" CLUB
THE Girls' "M" Club is among the more recent organizations at the University of
Maryland. It is open to all girls who have won a letter in the major sports. The
club was organized about two years ago; but due to the small number of girls
who have won "M's" it has not been particularly outstanding in its activity. It is hoped
that with the increased number of girls at the University, more interest will be taken
in sports and hence strengthen such organizations as this one.
The purpose of this club is to co-operate with the Women's Athletic Association in
furthering its ideals, by fostering true sportsmanship, furthering interest by providing
wholesome recreational activities, and encouraging a feeling of good fellowship among
the women of the University.
Officers for this year were: Maxine Heiss, President; Julia Louise Behring, Vice-
President; and Louise Harbaugh, Secretary-Treasurer.

<©EBATING TEAM
DEBATING at the University of Maryland did not
become thoroughly organized until 1924, at which
time the Council of Oratory and Debate was
formed. During the past three years, under the direction
of this Council, many inter-collegiate debates were held,
and the status of debating at the University has been
insured.
Improvement of the debators has been marked, and this
year, in our first encounter with the University of Ten-
nessee, a team selected from the following candidates,
Clarke Beach, Captain,.Frank Witter, Hazel Tenney, Ken-
neth Petrie, Walter Plumley, Wilfred Hearn, and Delmas
Caples, was successful in defeating representatives from
this school. Incidentally, the University of Tennessee is
considered to be one of the strongest schools in the r. n

This work which was aided this year by an appropriation from the Administration
of the University, was supervised by Professors Richardson and Lemon.

ENGINEERING SOCIETY
I HE Engineering Society is one of the professional organizations on the campus
I that has been very active in bringing about a closer relationship between members
of the Engineering College whose major fields are different. Through a system
of lectures given by prominent practicing engineers in all branches of the field the Civil,
the Electrical, the Mechanical, and the Chemical engineer each become better acquainted
with the other's work.
Lectures by such men as Mr. Burgess, of the United States Division of Aeronautics;
Professor Skelton; Major Heron, of the United States Geological Survey, and Mr. Mather,
Division Engineer of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company, prove highly inter-
esting and instructive.
The club has functioned this year under the leadership of Wade Elgin, President;
Edwin Page, Vice-President; Wilbur Strcett, Secretary-Treasurer, and Adelbert England,
Sergeant-at-Arms.

EPISCOPAL CLUB
THE Epicopal Club had its beginning back in the fall of 1920, when a group of
boys, desiring to found an organization which would meet the demands of the
students from the viewpoint of Christian believers, affiliated themselves with the
National Students' Council of the Protestant Episcopal Church. In 192 3 the boys
invited those girls of the University who were Episcopalians or who were interested in
the work of the church, to join their organization. Each year the club has grown until
there are now sixty-one members on the roll. The club owes much of its present pros-
perity to its honorary members among the faculty, and especially to the Student Pastor,
Dr. Ronalds Taylor, who has taken an active interest in the activities of the club.

THE QLEE CLUB
THE University of Maryland Glee Club has completed the busiest and most
successful year since its organization seven years ago under the direction of
Dr. House. The annual Glee Club trip during the Christmas holidays was most
successful, and during that time a tour was made through Western Maryland, visiting
Emmitsburg, Hagerstown, Boonsboro, Williamsport, Hancock, Cumberland, and
Frostburg.
During the season the Club, which was led by Harry Kelchner, President; Cecil
Propst, Manager; Bob Wilson, Vice-President; D'Arcy Bonnet and Joe Thoma, Assis-
tant Managers, gave over twenty concerts.
A spring trip was made to Winchester during the Apple Blossom Festival.

THE HORT CLUB
THE Horticultural Club of the University was founded by Dr. E. C. Auchtcr and
seven students, A. J. Barrett, B. L. Burnside, W. P. Hicks, W. B. Baldwin, D. P.
Perry, A. N. Pratt, and George Chapman, in 1919. The idea for such a club
was originated during a trip in which the above group visited prominent orchards of
West Virginia, Virginia, and Maryland and were impressed by the great work being
carried on in Horticultural lines.
In 1920 meetings were temporarily suspended, because of the loss of a large number
of influential members and in 1921-22 and 1923 the club functioned only occasionally.
In fact, it ceased to exist during 1922-23 entirely.
However, in 1923-24 the old spirit was revived under the ardent leadership of
D. K. Endslow. At this time the custom of having an annual Horticultural Show
was continued. Also the club started the custom of serving dinners at its monthly
meetings. This custom has been adhered to ever since.
The Club counts among its friends and members some of the ablest of our faculty,
and great benefit and inspiration is gained through talks from these men.

LATIN-o^MERICAN CLUB
IN the light of the expanding importance of the Latin-American countries in com-
merce and in world affairs, and of their relations economically and politically with
the United States, the Latin-American Society was organized in 1922. Immediately,
all those interested in the new Spanish and Portuguese America, became interested in
the new organization. Almost all of the South American students in the University
are members of the club and this fact enables the other members to get first hand
information on the countries in which they are interested.
The objects of the club are to promote a better understanding of the Latin-American
countries and to enable students studying Spanish to gain a practical knowledge of the
language by the natural contact with the Latin-American students at the University.
Meetings of a social and educational nature are held at which diplomats and others
prominent in Latin-American affairs address the club. The membership is open to all
who are interested.

LIVESTOCK CLUB
THE Livestock Club is an organization composed of Agricultural students. Faculty,
Extension workers. Research men, and prominent Livestock men of the State.
This club was organized in the spring of 1924. The purposes of the club are to
stimulate interest in Animal, Dairy, and Poultry Husbandry in the University of Mary-
land; to enable its members to become more familiar with practical factors pertaining
to the above; to promote sociability among the students, faculty and extension workers
in the above branches of the University of Maryland and with men actively engaged
in producing and marketing livestock products; to promote livestock exhibitions at the
University of Maryland; and to stimulate interest in the fitting and showing of animals.
The society encourages and supports all judging teams relating to the Livestock
industry at the University and throughout the State, and has had a remarkable success
on the campus during its existence.

=A(EW ^^ERCER LITERARY SOCIETY
THE New Mercer Literary Society is the oldest society of any kind on tlie campus
and one of the oldest literary societies actively connected with an American
university. In January of 1860, the Mercer Literary Society, named in honor of
Dr. William W. Mercer, was organized for the cultivation of the intellectual faculties
of the students. The organization was a great success from the start. In 1892, certain
changes were made and the name of New Mercer was decided upon. In 1895, the society
was merged with the Morrill Society, which had been recently organized. The combina-
tion was not successful and the societies separated.
Each year a debate is held with the Poe Society. A cup is offered by Dr. Patterson,
former President of the University — the President's Cup. Last year, the New Mercer
Society won this cup. Interest is keen and this past fall twenty-six new members
were initiated.

THE cS^ARYLAND OPERA CLUB
THE Maryland Opera Club was organized in 1924 by a group of students inter-
ested in music, and Elizabeth Swenk was chosen as its first President. The club's
first production, "Carmelita," a Spanish operetta, was given in the auditorium
as part of the Commencement festivities in June, 1924. The libretto of "Carmelita"
was written by B. Louis Goodyear, who has been the club's director since its inauguration
on the campus. "Carmelita" met with such success that it was repeated at the beginning
of the following scholastic year. On May 27, 1925, the club presented "Erminie," the
popular comic opera by Jakobowski, which was enthusiastically received.
On March 9, 1927, the well-known Gilbert and Sullivan opera, "The Pirates of
Penzance," was presented most successfully, and received by a large and appreciative
audience. The "Pirates," a broad travesty on grand opera, abounding in screamingly
funny situations and thrilling good music, was again given on March 24, after Mr.
Goodyear had received numerous requests to repeat it. The leading roles were sung
with distinction by Katherine Baker, Olive Kelk, Stanleigh Jenkins, Dr. Charles B. Hale,
Edward Barron, John McDonald, Albert Cook, Winifred McMinimy, Helen Wooster,
and Julia Louise Behring.
The Opera Club has acquired a reputation for the excellent quality of its produc-
tions, and much credit is due Mr. Goodyear, who is Director of the School of Singing,
for the splendid training, both dramatic and musical, evidenced in the Club's pre-
sentations.
Officers of the Opera Club are: Julia Louise Behring, President; Cecil Propst, Vice-
Persident; Frances Grviver, Secretary-Treasurer; and Ellen Jane Keiser, Assistant Secre-
tary-Treasurer.
Orchestral accompaniments for the Opera Club's performances are played by the
University Little Symphony Orchestra, which, although originally a part of the Opera
Club, is now a separate organization. The Little Symphony Orchestra, which also is
directed by Mr. Goodyear, has, besides its broadcasting over the radio, presented a num-
ber of successful public programs. Judging from past performances, it is quite safe to
predict a most brilliant future for this organization.

"yOE LITERARY SOCIETY
THE present Poe Literary Society, founded in 1915, is the successor of the Morrill
Literary Society, which was estabhshed in 1900. During its existence, the society
has enjoyed unusual success. Among the prominent men who have been members
of the society are numbered Mr. H. C. (Curly) Byrd, Senator "Chief" Tydings, and
Dr. L. Broughton.
In 1915, Dr. Patterson offered a silver loving cup to the literary society that won
the inter-society debate three times. The Poe was permanent winner in 1919. The
society won for a second time in 1924, but after winning the first debate in the new
series, lost to New Mercer in 1926.
The first co-eds were elected to membership on January 8, 1919. Miss Ezekiel holds
the honor of being the first woman to hold office. She was elected Secretary, May 5, 1920.
In 1920, the following members of the faculty were elected to honorary member-
ship in the Poe: Dr. Homer C. House, Prof. Charles S. Richardson, Prof. George Schulz,
Prof. Cotterman, Prof. Zimmerman, and Prof. Lemon.
The success of 1922 was repeated in 1923 by Mr. White and Mr. Watkins, who also
won the Alumni Medal for the best speaker. Represented by Mr. Straka and Mr. Mocho
in 1924, the Poe won possession of the second Patterson Cup. In 1925, the Poe won the
first leg on the third cup, when represented by Mr. Brown and Mr. Witter. In 1926,
it lost the inter-society debate for the first time since 1921.

CALVERT FORUM
THE Calvert Forum, honorary public speaking society composed of the best
speakers of the University and of men who have shown their ability as leaders
in this line of work, is the outgrowth of the Public Speaking Club organized
at Maryland five years ago.
The object of this society is to develop the ability of the members in the art of
Public Speaking in order to afford an easy and agreeable means for the consideration of
important public questions; and, to afFord an opportunity for the general exchange of
ideas among the members and to engage from time to time, in such activities as will
advance the interests of the University.
The Calvert Forum is still in the developing stage and has the possibilities of becom-
ing one of the most influential organizations on the Hill.

THE ^(OSSBOURG CLUB
"On uitl) //)<■ iliiinc, let joy he iiinoiifiiicci.
No sleep fill iiKini, uheii youth and pleasure meet."
OLD inhabitants tell us that the old Rossburg Inn, eight miles from Washington
and directly in front of the University, was in its day a famous breakfasting
place. Many gay parties from Baltimore and Washington have been held there.
"Uncle" Ned, the white haired darkey with his famous "Dancing Fiddle" would play,
and they would bow and curtsy daintily to the low, sweet strains of a minuet.
Then in the year 1891, a band of M. A. C. boys who had become tired of a life
devoid of social activities, bowed their heads at the shrine of music and thereby con-
fessed devotion to the gay muse, Tcmpis Chore, and organized a club appropriately
named Rossbourg. They resigned themselves to the task of conducting the best
dances of the year.
The membership was never so large as at present, nor the interest so lively. Five
dances were given and were pronounced great successes.

THE rOUNG ^EN'S CHRISTIAN e^SSOCIATION
IN the spring of 1924, a few campus leaders reorganized the Young Men's Christian
Association with the purpose of meeting the demand felt by many students for a
man's organization which would assume the leadership in the religious life of the
students. Since that time the Association has grown rapidly both in membership and
in influence.
The Y. M. C. A. has been most active this year. In the summer at a retreat at
Camp Conoy on the South River, the activities for the year were planned. Sunday
evenings, group meetings are held for the purpose of discussing the problems of college
life and the possibility of solutions for them. These meetings are open.
The Y. M. C. A. believes that all religions are different paths to the same Truth,
and aims to be non-paritsan in its relations with students of different faiths. It is the
object of the Y. M. C. A. to further broadmindedness, racial understanding, and inter-
national goodwill.

THE STUDENT ^RANGE
THE Student Grange, a chapter of the Farmer's National Fraternity, was organ-
ized in the year 1915. From that time until the present, this organization has
been the most active student organization on the campus. The membership has
always been limited to students, with the exception of a few faculty advisors who have
rendered an invaluable service. The Grange work has been placed entirely in the hands
of the students and has been the means of developing the initiative of the individual
members.
The alumni of the Student Grange have proven many times that this organization
has developed leadership by the commendable public service that they are rendering.
The work of the Student Grange gives to its members training in parliamentary prac-
tices, keeps them in touch with the rural communities, trains for leadership and conducts
what are thought to be model programs. The Student Grange was started with a pur-
pose and a definite mission. Its success as a student organization has proved that it can
fulfill this mission.

THE FACULTY c^ND PUBLICATIONS
A LTHOUGH publications at the University are the products of student work
/"^ and ideas, good advice from faculty officials is often needed. Since both the
Reveille and Diamondback handle considerable sums of money, no student
cares to assume the entire responsibility for its usage, thus Miss McKenney and Mr.
Bowers are of great assistance in keeping the publications in good order financially.
To Mr. Hottel, or "Bill," as he is better known, may be given most of the credit
for the success of publications for the past three years. He has worked exceedingly hard
to place our publications in their proper status, and even casual observation will show
that his efforts have not been in vain.
165
qA history of student 'PUBLICATIONS
THIRTY years ago, the first copy of the Reveille appeared, which was the pro-
genitor of the present annual. That small book marked the beginning of student
publications at the University of Maryland. The forerunner of the Diamondback
did not come on the scene until 1910. Both took immediate root and have continued
to the present time, growing and increasing their scope as the University itself grew.
The Maryland Agricultural College had progressed thirty-eight years from its formal
opening when the Reveille, a small book measuring about nine by six inches and not
more than one-half inch thick, was issued. It contained short feature articles, school yells,
class histories and prophecies, but no individual pictures of students. The only illustra-
tions were a few campus scenes and group pictures of organizations, classes, faculty
and athletic teams.
Few changes appeared in the annual for the succeeding three issues. However, in
1900 a full page write-up was included with the picture of each graduate. For several
years after that, the bindings and covers exhibit the only variations in the books.
Indeed, in 1909, the Reveille did not appear. But the next year's annual showed not
only an increase in size but also a better quality of material, and for ten years the book
served the students and faculty and alumni in a capable fashion.
The Class of 1920 published the last yearbook of the Maryland Agricultural College.
In that year, Maryland Agricultural College was combined with the Baltimore schools to
form the University of Maryland, and the Reveille attempted a combination with the
Terra Maria of the Baltimore branch. This plan was tried for three years with almost
total lack of success. So in 1924, the idea was abandoned and no annual of any kind
was published for the College Park schools.
Happily, the Reveille was revived in 192S and that year and the year following
books were published that carried every feature of the University's activity at College
Park and that compared quite favorably with annuals in their class from all parts of the
United States. The peak of thirty years' experience is in the reader's hands.
What is now the Diamoiulbiick had its inception in 1910 under the name of the
Triangle which was a four-page journal less than half the size of the present weekly. It
attempted to meet a demand for some means to keep the students and faculty posted
on the various activities of the college, then composed of three schools — Arts and
Sciences, Agriculture, and Engineering. The idea that the title sought to convey was
that on the base of Arts and Sciences rested the other schools of Agriculture and
Engineering.
The Triangle appeared twice a month. Obviously, the news in most cases was not
of general interest when the bimonthly appeared and did not fulfill the desires of the
expanding college and the rapidly increasing student body.
i66
After an existence of four years, the Triangle gave way to the Maryland Agricul-
tural Weekly, edited by the students under the supervision of the Department of EngHsh.
Its motto was Progress and Service. Two years later when the name of the college
was changed from Maryland Agricultural College to the Maryland State College, the
name of the publication was changed to the Maryland State Weekly.
On February 6, 1919, the Maryland State Reiiew appeared in the place of the
Weekly. Up to that time the paper had remained the same size, but with the appear-
ance of this issue, the page was larger and the subscription price raised from fifty cents
per year to one dollar and twenty-five cents per year. An important addition was the
co-cd column, since members of the fair sex were enrolling at the college.
When the State College became a part of the University of Maryland in 192 0, the
paper was called The University Review, but in the first issue an appeal was made to the
students for a name that would be emblematic of the University of Maryland.
With the last issue of the scholastic year of 1921 was embodied a reorganized Review
under the name that the weekly publication now bears, the Diamondlnnk. It was slightly
larger than its predecessor, carrying five columns with a subscription price of two dol-
lars for the year.
The second issue of the scholastic year 1925-26 marked the next change since an
additional column was added, making the total six on each of the four pages. Beginning
with the first issue of the year 1927, a two page insert was included, which reappeared
in the first issue of each month for the remainder of the scholastic year.
Increased material, excellent supervision and better co-operation on the part of the
students and faculty have contributed to the value of both publications, making each
years' Reveille and Dianiondback exceed the former years' in value.

THE 'DIAMONDBACK
DURING the past year, under the editorship of Milford Sprecher, and with a
greatly increased and more efficient staff, the Diamomiback has been more
truly representative of the University of Maryland and of its activities than
ever before. Week after week, this paper has been an accurate mirror of the student
and his affairs. The Diamondback is typical of the better class of college weeklies and
is indeed a credit to the institution.

THE ^(EVEILLE
IN publishing a college annual which attempts to mirror university life in its entirety,
one meets with many difficulties. The work as a whole is extremely interesting,
but one is tied and bound in every direction with petty details. These details
seem to constitute the book.
Many changes have been made in the various sections of this book from former
editions and it is hoped that they are an improvement. Each portion of the book has
been gone over time and again for possible mistakes; however, neither the Editor, nor the
Staff are beyond error.
Such a school as the University of Maryland deserves better year-books than the
Reveilles of the past and a better book than this 1927 edition, for a school annual is
a representation of its inner life.
Thus, a true representation would call for a far better annual than that contained
within these covers. May our year-books of the future far surpass their predecessors.

G/fTHLETICS qAT ^^ARYLAND UNIVERSITY
F. B. BOMBERGER
IN thinking of athletics at any institution of learning, one unconsciously — almost
inevitably — visualizes the victories of her various teams of athletes. The relay team
that defeats rival teams from the great universities and blazons the name of their
Alma Mater in the headlines of the sport pages; the basketball team that wins a con-
ference championship; the football team that defeats its mightiest opponents and enrolls
the names of some of its members among the mythical immortals who constitute the
"All-State" or "All-America" teams that the teams representing the "old school" have
triumphed for so many years over its most hated rival as to make winning an annual
"gloat" — these are the ideas that flood the mind when we link the name of a college
or university with the word athletics.
And yet to one who has, for almost a quarter of a century, been identified with
athletics at the University of Maryland, there are other considerations that fill the mind
when the success of one of its teams is heralded to the world. I yield to no one in
desiring victory for our athletes. If any one enjoys more than I, the winning of an
athletic contest by one of our teams, I surely have failed to meet him.
But it is not merely in the knowledge of the fact that our teams have been victorious
over other teams that I rejoice. Had our warriors gone to battle, tovight their fiercest,
displayed the very best mettle that was in them, exhibited to the utmost the results of
their splendid coaching — and yet, in the face of their utmost strivings, been defeated
by stronger, and better teams — even then I should have been filled with a profound
satisfaction resulting from the realization that the teams which had carried the hopes
and aspirations of the University into the fiercest of the fighting was a clean team — a
team of bona fide students, untouched by the stain and dishonor of professionalism.
HAMPTON
The Cheer Leaders
ai6
The realization of that fact — and it is a fact which no one familiar with the circum-
stances and history of our athletics can successfully refute — that the teams of Maryland
University are clean teams in the strictest sense of the word, should be the proudest
boast of any student or alumnus of old Maryland.
And it is a matter of which the students and the alumni and the faculty of the
University are intensely proud. It adds a zest to their enjoyment to know that when an
athletic team representing the University wins a contest, it wins a real victory, a victory
uncontaminated by the taint of professionalism. They are very jealous of the athletic
honor of this institution and will guard zealously against any effort to undermine the
high standards of our athletic tradition.
That this is a tradition of long standing will be illustrated and demonstrated by a
series of incidents which occurred during the football season of 1914. By a freak of
fortune the schedule had been so arranged that the team representing the College (then
old Maryland Agricultural College) was scheduled to play, within three days, both
Hopkins and St. John's. These were the two teams which, in those days, we were most
eager to defeat.
A number of veterans from the previous year's team failed to return to College,
and the outlook for winning even one of these games seemed very dark. Naturally
the students desired to secure all the strength possible for the team. And then tempta-
tion came in the unexpected return to College of a veteran who for several years prior
thereto had been a tower of strength to our teams. His presence on the team would
have increased immeasureably the chances of success in these two crucial contests.
Naturally every one hoped and desired that he might be on the team. But under the
rules of the Athletic Council, he was ineligible to play.

Now, bear this in mind. He was a bona fide student of the College, and in any
other college of the state (including the two chief rivals named above) he would have
been permitted without question under similar circumstances to play on the Varsity team.
Yet under our rules he was ineligible. If ever a body of students were strongly tempted
to rebel the students of this institution were. But the value of the tradition was recog-
nized, and the team played without the much-desired veteran. With what result?
As if in reward for virtue, the god of fortune favored us and our team performed
a feat which no Maryland college team had ever before equalled — defeated two major
football teams within three days.
It was a proud day for Maryland Agricultural College (not when we were vic-
torious. That we should rejoice at victory was to be expected under any circumstances)
but when the students of this old college rose victorious over their desire to win at any
cost and played the game like true sportsmen — the conquest of their opponents only
served to heighten and sweeten the victory. The real moral victory was won before the
teams went on the field. In these days when throughout the land it is becoming more
generally considered honorable for athletic teams to win honorably and dishonorable for
them to win by an indirection or violation of the ethics of the game, we students and
alumni of Old Maryland should feel proud that this institution was among the pioneers
to blaze the way towards an era of clean athletics at our schools and college.

ARYLAND has
every reason to
rejoice over the
' splendid record
of its football machine
during the strenuous cam-
paign of 1926. In what
was, perhaps, the hardest
schedule ever undertaken
by any South Atlantic
college. Maryland's ban-
ner rose triumphant in five
out of ten games, and we
shared honors in one.
Our first opponent was
Washington College. The boys from the Sho' were fast, but
far too light to withstand the battering attacks of the Mary-
land backficld. Our shifty backs ripped huge holes in the
Washington defense and scored almost at will. The outstand-
ing work of the day was done by Pugh, who carried the ball
for touchdowns eighty yards on one occasion and fifty-five
on another. However, very little indication of the team's real strength was given in this game,
for the heat of the day and Washington's weakness allowed little chance for real football. When

back to the tunc of 12-0. administered by the University of South Carolina. South Carolina's
first score resulted from a left end run by Wimberly. following the blocking of one of Kessler's
punts. The second score was the result of an error, one of our men dropping the ball, and South
Carolina's recovering on Maryland's thirty-five yard line and carrying it over. Both points after
touchdowns were missed.
The following Saturday we journeyed to the Windy City with high hopes, but again we
were doomed to disappointment. Coach Stagg's powerful Chicago eleven proved too much
for us. The Old Liners held with the tenacity of bulldogs until the last ten minutes of play,
when Chicago pushed over two touchdowns in rapid succession. Up to that time Chicago had
scored but one lone touchdown, the result of a long forward pass, from Marks to Apritz. In
spite of good work by Snyder, Schrader and Thomas, the short end of a 21-0 count was our portion.
Yet we were doomed to suffer another setback before finding our stride. Before a larger crowd
assembled in Norfolk. Va., the fighting soldiers of V. P. I. took our measure. 24-8. It was the
same old thing — inexperience, and costly fumbles proved our undoing. Mike Stevens
was at his best, and Snyder made a noteworthy showing in contributing one lone
touchdown, but they were unable to stem the tide.
Again back on the home gridiron. Maryland's warriors
took new life and vanquished the strong North Carolina
eleven, 16-6, in a game with a freak beginning. Maryland
kicked off to North Caro-
lina and McPherson. re-
ceiving the ball on his
own seven yard line, ran
for a touchdown. Thus
before the game was fif-
teen seconds old. North
Carolina had six points to
its credit. But now it
was Maryland's turn to
cheer, for on the first play
made by Maryland, after
recovering the ball on a
punt after North Caro-
lina failed to gain. Snyder
ran through the entire op-
posing team for our first

u,s one point in the lead. Snyder scored again
in the first period and Kcssler added the other
point. A pass from Kcssler resulted in this
score. Good defensive work by Thomas, and
Leatherman's work on the end helped along.
North Carolina had a chance to score in the

four yard line, but the Terrapins held fast.

point. In the second quarter Kessler ran a punt back from his own 30
yard line to the Blues' fifteen. Stevens drop-kicked a three-pointer from
ihat spot. Soon after the third quarter began the Terrapins again started a triumphant march
down the field, at the culmination of which Thomas dived over the goal for our final score.
Yale could do nothing against our defense.
No outstanding stars can be picked, although Thomas. Kessler. Leatherman and Adams were
conspicuous, for the team worked wonderfully as a unit. Immediately after the final whistle blew,
and the loyal Maryland rooters stopped rubbing their eyes, they swarmed on the field and up-
rooted the goal posts, which they bore back in sections to exhibit to jealous schoolmates.
The Home-Coming Day Game with Virginia, played Saturday following our triumph over
Yale, brought a huge crowd to the Byrd Stadium. Before numerous old grads and hosts of
shouting undergraduates a brilliant contest was staged — one of the best ever seen in this section.
Although Virginia gained more ground than did the Old Liners. Maryland's loyal rooters felt a
keen disappointment in the score of 6-6 at the close of the game.
In spite of Virginia's exceptional ground gaining. Maryland would have won but for a bad
break. Captain Mike Stevens scored our first touchdown after a sixty-four yard run in the
opening minutes of play. After a failure at goal by Stevens, both teams settled down and see-
sawed back and forth until the final quarter, when Captain Mackall broke through and blocked
Kcssler's kick, falling on it on the one-foot line. Hushion easily carried it over from there. Vir-
ginia threatened three or four times during the course of the battle, but Maryland held.
Mike Stevens missed a heart-rending goal which might have won the game for Maryland, but
the ball bounded back after striking the goal-posts.

On a veritable field of mud. Maryland went down before Washington and Lee by the bare
margin of a field-goal. Until the last five minutes of play it was anybody's game, neither team
seeming to have any advantage, but in the last stages of the battle, Rauber, W. 8 L. captain,
booted a pretty placement kick.
Any attempts at flashy football were prevented by the condition of the field, and as a result
the game was devoid of spectacular runs. Capt. Stevens was kept out of the entire game in order
that he might appear at his best against Hopkins.
Great as was our victory over Yale, of still more satisfaction to the Sons of Old Maryland
was the defeat of our ancient rival. Johns Hopkins, in Baltimore on Thanksgiving Day. The
game was one succession of thrills, starting with the scoring of two touchdowns by Hopkins and
culminating in a mighty drop-kick by Mike Stevens for the deciding points.
Black were the hopes of Maryland supporters at the close of the first half, when the score stood
14-0 against us. Hopkins was fighting with a spirit born of desperation with which she had
fought on three previous occasions when supposedly better Maryland teams were held to tie scores.
It seemed that this time she would overcome the Maryland machine. No sooner were the Old
Liners on the field for the second half than they began a march for a touchdown which was
made by Thomas. Soon after, another touchdown was pushed over, making the score even.
Hopkins braced at this point and held until the last quarter, when Mike Stevens sent over a beau-
tiful dropkick which gave us the game, 17-14. This was Capt. Stevens' last appearance in the
Maryland uniform and he rose to mighty heights to put the finishing touches on a highly suc-
cessful season.

an established precedent. Dur-

The indoor season just passed
has been especially notable in

that the Old Lme lour out-

also successful in taking the University of Richmond Indoor Games at Richmond. The
running of Captain Roger Whiteford, "Gump" Matthews, "Knocky" Thomas, Charley
Pugh, "Slim" Sheriff, Carlton Neunam, and "Buddy" Meyers was outstanding during the
indoor season. Thomas, however, should be given more than mere mention as his feat
in winning the invitation hundred yard dash at the Fifth Regiment Games in Baltimore
over some of the best sprint men In the country was highly creditable.

the graduation of Zuke Supplee and Louis Ditman, last June, our strength in the
field events has been seriously impaired.

BASKETBALL
O trace the history of basketball in
detail since its inception at the
University of Maryland would be
a useless and difficult task. Suffice it to
say that in a comparatively short time the
indoor game has taken deep root at Mary-
land, and has occasioned a high degree of
interest. Nor is the team that Coach Ship-
ley yearly develops unworthy to bear the
banner of the school, for every year to
date we have succeeded in winning a
majority of games played.
The past season proved no exception
to this rule. Although the team that rep-
resented Maryland did not quite measure
the sterling combination of the previ-
able to turn in a record of ten
CAPT.-ELECT
LINKOUS
up to the standard set by
ous year, it was nevertheless able to turn in a record of ten victories out of
nineteen games. These victories included triumphs over such teams as North Carolina,
South Atlantic Champions; University of Pennsylvania, and Georgia.
In our first encounter of the year, we bowed to American University, who had the
advantage of experience in two or three previous engagements. Then came a victory
over Washington and Lee, gained in rather easy fashion by a score of 44-32.
Following this we were forced to accept four defeats in rapid succession, at the
hands of Michigan, Navy, Virginia, and Washington College. In only one of these, that
with Navy, did we give a good account of ourselves, but we may say with all justifi-
cation that had we had one or two breaks on that occasion the highly touted Midshipman
aggregation might have tasted defeat.
After this disastrous siege, we encountered the University of Georgia on our home
floor and were able to emerge victorious by the slender margin of one point, after one
of the best games ever seen in this region. The lanky Georgians had everything but we
were just a little better that night. Gallaudet was then easily taken into camp, as was
Stevens Institute, the team that had occasioned so much trouble the year before.
We met the University of North Caro-
lina then on two successive days, which
two contests were split even. The regul-
larly scheduled game we won handily but
in the other our reserves could not cope
with those of Carolina. Following this we
succeded in scoring one of the biggest up-
sets of the season. The University of
Pennsylvania was conceded to have a dis-
i tinct edge on us, but we downed the
^ffl| "Quakers" in their own gym by the
^m ^1 score of 26-21.

required an extra period of play. The teams battled on even terms for the two regular
twenty-minute periods, neither gaining the ascendance for more than two or three
minutes at a time. But in the extra period, with one minute to play, Linkous shot one
in to give us the margin of victory by one point. It was a great game from start to
finish, and it left the spectators breathless.

Washington College was met on the following Monday in Baltimore and again
defeated us. The boys from the Shore were the only ones to defeat us twice during the
year. Western Maryland gave us a little trouble before we succeeded in disposing of
them, 32-2 5, in the last engagement of the regular schedule.
The same old jinx that attended them last year seemed to accompany the "Old
Liners" in the Southern Conference Tournament of this year, for we again suffered
defeat in the first game, falling before the University of Georgia whom we had pre-
viously defeated.
Coach Shipley and the members of the squad deserve a great deal of commendation
for the showing of the team. Every man gave his best, and it was always a fighting
combination that the other team faced, no matter what the score. Though we accom-
plished nothing spectacular, we may say that the season proved a real success.

COACH R. V. TRUITT
LACROSSE
ROM the very begin-
ning, Maryland has suc-
ceeded in turning out
Lacrosse teams so well versed
in the Indian game that they
have compared very favorably
with the best the country has
to offer. Due to our singular
success along these lines La-
crosse enjoys a prominent
position among sports here,
being perhaps the best attend-
ed of all spring sports.
The success of the teams
turned out every year is truly amazing. Of the large squad of Freshmen who report
every spring to submit themselves to the grueling grind, not more than one or two
have ever handled a stick. Yet in a few weeks time, a representative and excellent
yearling combination is invariably developed. Day by day and week by week, the work
goes on, until these green but willing players are converted into the type of men who
have succeeded in placing Maryland at the top of the heap.
The season of 1926 proved a distinct success despite the fact that we were overcome
by our most hated rival, Hopkins, in the final contest. Previous to that we had defeated
such teams as those representing Lafayette, Lehigh, and Stevens, conceded to be of the
highest ranking in the Inter-Collegiate Lacrosse Association. Because of this record,
Maryland was given the fourth position among all schools of the country who are repre-
sented by Lacrosse teams.
A great misfortune was our lot in that Coach Truitt was unable to direct the team
for the preliminary training of the current season, on account of illness. Whether that
misfortune was directly responsible or not for our poor start is a debatable question, for
Jack Faber handled the fairly green combination in fine shape, but it is certain that the
experienced direction of the man who has played a great part in placing Maryland in the
van as regards the antelope game, was sorely missed. In the three contests decided before
this book went to press, we were forced to take the short end of the count in two
instances, bowing to the service teams of West Point and Annapolis.
We succeeded in humbling Harvard, and the team's playing in this game gives
promise that the season will be successful, despite the poor beginning.
This year the roster of the team holds the names of a goodly number of fairly green
men. With this combination playing together a great deal is expected in future years,
even more than has been done in the past.
At this time we feel certain that the turning point has been reached and that
by the time this book appears, Maryland will be rejoicing in a record containing a large
majority of victories.

BASEBALL
ASEBALL has long been
recognized at the Uni-
versity of Maryland.
Before stadiums, gymnasiums,
and the best of athletic equip-
ment were realities, Maryland
men were out fighting for the
honor of their school on the
diamond. Recently, interest
in this national sport has been
on the wane, but there is no
MANAGER MYLO DOWNEY reason why that interest should
not be revived. Excellent
teams might be turned out.
This year there is every indication that a winning combination will be developed
by Coach Shipley. Although the majority of the games will take place after this book
goes to press, we have already something to boast about. In our first game, the Uni-
versity of Richmond was defeated and this same team on the following day rather
handily trimmed Navy. With such a start, we should go far and there is no reason
why Captain Murray's aggregation should not return a majority of victories.
As this book goes to press, we have won our fifth straight game, so prospects look
exceedingly good for the remainder of the season.

CROSS-COUNTRY
CROSS-COUNTRY is a spore about which httle is
heard, but which is always represented by a good
team at Maryland. Through rain and snow, over
hills and valleys, the members of the "suicide club" toil
daily in order that the Old Line school may not be found
wanting when the scheduled meetings arrive. And they
are not submitted to this punishment in vain, for in this
way are developed combinations which bring honor and
i^lory to the University. The past season was perhaps the
most successful of all campaigns. Under the leadership
of Captain Neunam the squad acquitted itself nobly by
winning all three scheduled dual meets, and annexing
third place in the Southern Conference titular event.
In the first contest of the season Hopkins was humbled by the Terrapins by the
narrow margin of one point. Then William and Mary was decisively defeated, 19-28.
On Home-Coming Day Virginia was unable to gain the victory in an engagement marked
by thrilling finishes. In the big contest for the Southern Conference championship,
Maryland scored 64 points, for a rating of third, to wind up a highly successful year.
A good deal of interest was aroused this year by the awarding of major letters for
cross-country, and all berths were eagerly contested for. From now on this interest
should increase even more. In keeping with the rise of athletics at Maryland, this sport
bids fair to improve every year.

TENNIS
FOR quite a few years Tennis has been recognized at
Maryland in the capacity of a minor sport. And in
the face of great difficulty good representative teams
have been developed. Despite the lack of any coaching
facilities whatsoever large numbers have turned out every
year to compete for berths on the team, and a good deal of
interest generally has been shown.
Recently Tennis has been elevated to the rank of the
major sports, and with this advancement in rating, the
interest attendant upon this particular sport is expected to
be greatly increased.
MANAGER WILLIAM KORFF
Captain Tingley's combination has an enviable record
to uphold, for last year under the leadership of Bill Weber
the team gained a virtual championship of three states —
Maryland, Virginia, and Delaware — by conquering the leading teams of those states.
Of this winning aggregation of players four arc available this season. With these four as
a nucleus it is expected that a formidable combination will be developed.
Manager Bill Korff has arranged an attractive schedule, on which are such opponents
as Virginia, W. and L., and Navy. While it is yet too early to foresee the outcome of
these contests, all indications point to a successful season.

INTER-FRATERNITY BASKETBALL
THE past year saw the deposition of Delta Sigma Phi from their three-year claim
on the Inter-Fraternity Championship and the establishment of Sigma Nu in that
exalted position as champion of the Greeks. Kappa Alpha, winner of the first half,
met Sigma Nu, winner of the second half in a three game battle for the champion-
ship, from which Sigma Nu emerged victorious after winning the first and third games.
Every game was well contested and the quality of sportsmanship shown was a credit
to all the traditions of "Old Maryland."

THE work of the Military Department has progressed in a most satisfactory man-
ner. The R. O. T. C. Unit and the Mihtary Department have received the whole-
hearted support of the faculty and the student body without which their work
could never reach the high standard required to attain the coveted designation of
"Distinguished College."
This distinction has been awarded the University of Maryland for five consecutive
years and it will be the goal of all concerned to continue this enviable record indefinitely.
The strength of the Unit for tlie college year 1926-27 was four hundred and thirty-
four, an increase of forty-nine over the enrollment for the college year 192 5-26.

On the following pages, you will find on account of
Four of Maryland's most famous ones.
300
The Four Horsemen
THE ^(.OLLICKING FOURSOME
SINCE John Erskine wrote his "Private Life of Helen of Troy" and Wm. Randolph
Hearst gave us an inside story of "Canned Peaches," it would seem as if some-
thing with no trace of scandal might be desirable. Consequently, a selection of
these four who are all innocence personified should at least be appropriate.
These STUDENTS are located far above the noise and din of the busy world, under the
very eaves of Calvert Hall and it is rumored that they fly the green and gold on St.
Patrick's Day. However, since two of the four are snakes, this hardly seems apropos.
Let us take these illustrious athletes one by one, starting with The Mike Stevens.
This bow-legged member of the "Snake's Nest" club, a fraternity whose reputation was
seriously impaired when it became known that its members peered across the intervening
space between them and their neighbor's windows, is quite a bashful man; but he seems
to have "it." His secret ambition has been to kiss every passable co-ed on the campus
and write about it in his memory book. This failure (?) year after year has finally
broken his spirit until he has descended to the level of a corn-cob pipe of body-degenerat-
ing effects and an ever-increasing interest in keeping a memory book which is devoid
of feminine reminiscences. (?)
Roger Whiteford, that cherub-like herring, the second of this lovely foursome, has
concentrated his life's efforts on trying to get a date with his ideal of perfection —
Edith Burnside, one of the Wooden Shoe Twins. Time after time his ever active (?)
'They Fly the Green and Gold on
St. Patrick's Day"
He Seems to Have "IT'
301
brain has devised ways and means of accomplishing his hfelong purpose; but it has been
to no avail. Brave in the face of these reversals his efforts at times have seemed almost
indefatigable, but it seems that Fate has colleagued with this proud beauty in sending
him to defeat. Finally, the human spirit could stand it no longer, with the result that
Runt has been cast into the depths of despair — his beacon of light extinguished forever.
The world had lost sight of this heroic soul until recently when he was discovered in a
remote corner of the track dressing room trying to swipe enough adhesive tape to mend
a pair of worn-out golf stockings and patch a spare tire for That Ford.
Now we come to Charley Pugh and Ed Tenney who are both members of a fraternity
on whose seal we find "Dieu et Les Dames." May the good Lord help any damsels with
whom these two come in contact, "cow-eds" or otherwise. This Pugh, besides being a
would-be football player and a spike shoe artist, drives Harry Porten's ex-Ford and has
become a familiar sight around Chaney's Garage trying to hook "Slim" out of a couple
of old tires.
But Tenney! (I blush outright when I write this), for the following is merely a
series of gentle hints of which we spoke at the beginning of this section; and we dare
not print the truth.
From reliable sources we have found the reasons for Ed's becoming bald. It seems
that too many Co-eds have been stroking his hair. As an example of his powers and
abilities with the ladies, listen to the information which was contributed by Charley
Pugh and several other eye witnesses. For some unknown reason a Sigma Delta girl
pulled a faux pas and went out in the sun parlor when Ed and Albert Orton were . . . !
Then Alberta had to go to Washington, so she sent Ed home. On the way up to the
barracks he dropped in at the A O II house for a chin or what-not, and it so happened
that the same Sigma Delta girl who had blundered out on the sun parlor went up to
the A O n house to complete some school work. As she was going upstairs she saw
Ed and Ruth Barnard . . . !
It is rumored that Tubby Herzog was peering through the windows that night, so
he came over and Ed left for the Homestead and Dorothea Freseman. It was too dark to
see exactly what happened on the front porch !
That is work for an unlimited imagination.

after supper each evening they boldly march next door to their neighbors' and chew the
rag, etc. Several have been caught peering through the east windows at late hours
of the night.
Delta Sigma Phi:
The last word in basketball (and sometimes the last place in the frat loop) comes
from the old carnation. The Barracks boys are wondering when the Overland touring
is going to be converted into a truck in order to facilitate transportation of the
beef trust.
Phi Sigma Kappa:
These social satellites are members of the international association of telephone
poles. They miss no social function within the radius of 1,000 miles and their motto
is clothes make the man. Recently, several of the dear brothers were detected casting
roguish glances at the girls.
Alpha Omicron Pi:
World famous for the origin of the A <) 11 strut. It is done in the following manner:
Wrap the coat as tightly as possible around the body; the head is drooped down as the
blossom of a beautiful flower on hot August afternoons. The next step is to cultivate
the slink, which is accomplished by never allowing the feet to leave the ground while in
motion, the more scuffling the better. We heartily recommend this to all aspirations
to A O n. For further information see Nova, Ruth or Margaret.
Phi Alpha:
We fear that some day a seven ton truck is going to turn down College Avenue
too sharply and carry the front porch and parlor of the <I> A house along with it. One
member recently made the startling statement that they once owned a front yard.
Sigma Delta:
Oh Girls! Come see our new warehouse. It has a beautiful lawn and a whole wheel-
barrow full of overshoes on the small front porch, and When it Rains it Pours — through
our roof and cellar.
303
Kappa Xi:
Not sufficiently informed upon tlieir habits to intelligently burn them up. However,
from a few rumors it would seem as if one or two of them would do well to borrow
the hose shown in the Phi Sig house party picture to wash away a few scorched cinders.
Alpha Upsilon Chi:
If we were looking for the original two extremes, we might look here and find
them in Fig and her tall sorority sister. Reds.
Delta Psi Omega:
You have been wondering why these boys have their front lawn plowed up. They
are just practicing up for vacation days, by cracky!
Nu Sigma Omicron:
These boys are certainly noted for sub-rosa parties and the great amount of atten-
tion they show to co-eds.
Delta Mu:
Let's create some new offices in the student assembly so that the Delts can snap up
a few more officers that have run on a non-fraternity ticket.
Sigma Tau Omega:
Hello children! This is Aunt Martha! This familiar sound is music to the ears of
these boys when it comes over the radio. Any one of them will tell you that it is very
thrilling to listen in on a bedtime story.
Alpha Gamma:
Gracious, what a lazy bunch of boys! Why, not a one of 'em has got out of bed
afore si.\ o'clock since they bin here. Ye gods! How lazy some people be!

ONE giRL TO e^NOTHER
(Apologies to Lloyd Mayer)
WELL my dear, I'm so Awfully glad to see you I mean, it seems so excRU-
ciatingly good that we can get toGETHER and have a REGular old talk to-
GETher aGAlN. My dear, you siMPly can't imagine where I've been every week-
end for the LAST month. I've been out to Maryland, my dear, and evERY time with a
DiFF-erent boy, in a different FRATernity and i've had the most woNderful time you
can't imAgine — I was so popular — What? you were out there YOURself! I don't see
HOW I could have missed you, you're so pecuLiar looking, I mean you're so dis-
TiNGUiSHED looking I mean I think the boys out there are wonderFUL. And my dear, I
met the grandest man — his name is Ed Tenney and he's so cute and nice looking and
his hair is sort of thin and I mean what there is of it is so sort of curly and nice I just
love to run my FiNgers through it and there's ONly one thing about this MARvelous
man, he ALways wants to neck, I mean he siMply slays me and I really can't RESIST
him, he's oh so masterful. And oh my dear, while I was out at that K A house
I saw the funniEST little boy. Why all he did was GLower and scowl, I believe they
call it GRIPE out THERE His name was Peewee and HoNcs/Zy I was so scared and there
WAS another man who was named Ted and EVERYbody called him BROWNing or some-
thing, but I don't know what that means, becAUSE there weren't any peaches there.
And then I saw some Exquisite boys at the Sicma Nu house and one of them is so
cute you wouLon't beLiEVE it and he just thrills me to the MARrow. I mean he
Actually does and I think he's a captain of the Track team or soMEthing and he
REALly slings a wicKed line and there was the cutest sort of fat man there I think
his name was Fred and oh how he can shoot the bull and I simpLY went wild over
him. He LooKed so nice and all those boys looked sort of athletic and big I love
the brutes. And my dear, I went to a place down by the RAiLroad tracks where there
were the DEARest lot of boys and it was Sicma Phi sigMA or soMEthing and I want to
tell YOU THAT they all shake a mean hoof and I nearly threw one hip out of joint
trying to do the Black BoTtom down there and one of them is oh so Distinguished
loOKiiig and he had all kinds of funny looking pledge pins on and he must be such
a power around there. I think his name is Fahey or soMEthing and I mean he's
Awfully NICE but HE REALLY doesn't know much about NECKing because I mean I
wanted him to pet me a litTLE and he sort of giggled and looked funny and was so
deLlciously naive my dear I was siMPly enTHRALLFD becAUSE I never met a man like
THAT before and I didn't think that there were any at MARYland so iNNOcent. They
most all WANT to NECK all the time, like that Tenney man. And I saw another
man there who must have been eight feet tall, and he looks just like a BEANpole
he's so nice I'll bet my last lipstick that the Co-eds are siMP-ly crazy about him I think
his name was Parks or soMEthing. And my dear, I went to anoTHER house off on
some road it was Delta Sicma Phi and I mean some of those boys are Awful hounds
306
and SOME of them look like they NEVer saw a girl and there was a PER-fectly
iRrepressible man NAMed Jones or someTHiNG and I mean he laughed at EVERYthing
and he's such a wit and anoTHER one wa snamed Spottswood and I mean he is grand
he's so sort of high and mighty kind of and he CAPtured my fancy and my dear I
went to another place that I think is the Phi sigMA KAVpa and they're really the
BIGGEST sheiks of ALL, I mean I never saw so many good-looking clothes beFORE in
MY life and the yard was sort of cluttered up with EMpty flasks and I knew they had
a GOOD time there and my dear they all necked divinely and I had a gorgeous time
and one boy they CALLed tite and he and ANother named Weenie were wows they
Actually were and I think that's a marvcIous place becAUSE none of them let their
studies inTERfere with their educATion if you know what I mean my dear. And at
ALL these places I saw a sort of small man he was a PRofessor or soMEthing and I think
THEY called HIM Mister cadisch or something and they all hung around him and I
think they must have him in classes or something. And beLiEVE me I think they're
all woNderful. And I always feel so sort of pawed over when I come back from there
and i'm going again soon and i'll tell you all aBOUT it I mean I actually will.

The Temple of Edfu (built between the first
and the third centuries, B. C.) is the best
preserved of Egypt's ancient temples. It stands,
a tribute to the wisdom of using permanent
materials for the perpetuation of artistic ideas.
The Publication Committee of the Reveille
showed their wisdom when they selected the
Joyce Company to produce the engravings
needed for their Year Book ....
