LEVIN B. BROUGHTON
To Dr. Levin Bowland Broughton, to whom
the Junior Class dedicates this 192 8 annual, the
University of Maryland owes much.
Coming from a fine old Eastern Shore colonial
family of the type that has given the South a
unique place in the nation's social life. Dr. Broughton
entered Maryland Agricultural College in the Fa
of 1905. He specialized in chemistry and went to
work for the College immediately upon graduation.
With the exception of one year and a half spent out
of the state in advanced work, he has ever since been
in the service of our University.
What Dr. Broughton has accomplished for the
University of Maryland cannot be told in words, as
his has been a service that is written in the hearts
of men — a service exemplified in the deeds of hun-
dreds who are faithfully serving the State and the
Nation.

MARYLAND HISTORY
The history of Maryland forms an integral part of the story of our national growth. First
settlements were made in Maryland early in the period of American colonial development; and
many of the characters and events outstanding in our national life have been as closely linked
with the building of the "Old Line" State.
Although the Spaniards were probably the first Europeans to sight Maryland's shores, as
shown by old records, it remained tor Captain John Smith to make the first visit of any conse-
quence and to explore the Chesapeake Bay region. This area, inherited by Cecilius Calvert. Lord
Baltimore, was named Maryland in honor of Queen Henrietta Maria.
Colonization was begun in 16 34 when some two hundred settlers arrived in the ships "Ark"
and "Dove." establishing themselves at St. Mary's on a tributary of the Potomac River. The
area about St. Mary's was obtained by a treaty with the Indians by Governor Calvert, and today
a marble shaft in the old graveyard marks the spot where the transfer occurred.
In 1649 the Maryland Assembly passed the famous Act of Toleration, the first act of
complete religious toleration to be enacted by any American colony. Maryland had been estab-
lished on a sound agricultural basis and consequently steady progress was made. Among the
western settlements of the colony Fort Cumberland was an important protection from French
and Indian attacks. Large plantations were established and the hospitality of the Maryland
planter was heralded far and wide. The Maryland-Pennsylvania boundary was disputed for
many years, but the running of Mason and Dixon's line between 1763 and 1767 definitely
established this border.
Maryland men were prominent in the events preceding the Revolutionary War. During
the war. Maryland's troops proved themselves among the most courageous of the colonial army.
The bravery of the "Old Liners " was nowhere more apparent than at the battle of Long Island.
August 1776, where some four hundred men of the Maryland battalion made six charges against
four thousand of the British, and thus covered the retreat of a large part of General "Washing-
ton's army. At the close of the war the Annapolis State House was the scene of General "Wash-
ington's address when he surrendered his commission of commander of the Continental Army.
In 1786. after the weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation had been shown, a conference of
the middle States was called at Annapolis. This convention's most important act was to call the
convention at Philadelphia in 1787. which gave us our present Federal Constitution.
It was during the War of 1812 that Francis Scott Key. a son of Maryland, was inspired
to write the "Star Spangled Banner" while watching the British fleet bombard Fort McHenry
in Baltimore harbor. In the naval war with Tripoli. Stephen Decatur, another of Maryland's
sons, brought further honor to his native State.
In 1828 the cornerstone of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad — the first American railroad
in the modern sense of the word — was laid at Baltimore. During the ensuing years Baltimore
rose to become a great national trade center. The swift Baltimore clipper ship, modeled after
the Chesapeake Bay craft — the bugeye and log canoe, was found on every sea.
Another event of national importance was the opening of the first telegraph line In the
world in 1844 between Baltimore and Washington.
During the Civil War. Maryland's regiments performed with valor. The battles of South
Mountain and Antictam were the only major engagements within Maryland's borders.
Since the Civil War. the story of Maryland's growth, with that of the other States of the
Union, has been more closely than ever interwoven with the narrative of national development.
During the Great War her divisions won many glories. Today the "Old Line" is especially
noted for her remarkable educational fa.ilities and her pioneer work in the establishment of a
perfected State's road system.

His torch is at thy temple door,

Avenge the patriotic gore
That flecked the streets of Baltimore
And be the battle queen of yore,
Maryland, My Maryland!
Hark to an exiled son's appeal,
Maryland, My Maryland!
My mother State, to thee I kneel,
Maryland, My Maryland!
For life and death, for woe and weal
Thy peerless chivalry reveal
And gird thy beauteous limbs with steel,
Maryland, My Maryland!
Thou wilt not cower in the dust,
Maryland, My Maryland!
Thy gleaming sword shall never rust,
Maryland, My Maryland!
Remember Carroll's sacred trust.
Remember Howard's war-like thrust,
And all thy slumb'rers with the just,

SENIOR CLASS HISTORY
Among our souvenirs, we will always treasure our rat and rabbit caps, our Sopho-
more paddles, our Junior Prom programs, and last, but not least, our sheepskins. And
by these mementos, will we recall our four happy college years together.
Back in the Fall of 1924, we matriculated and soon passed from the painful stage
of being bedecked m green and other bright colors, to the glory of unsurpassing dignity
— -Sophomores. It was then that we displayed the revengeful side of our natures, and
inflicted all kinds of tortures on our underclassmates. But do not think that this was
all of our accomplishments. In the meantime, education, school spirit, campus activities,
athletics all took their turn with us; and we emerged as Juniors, surpassing our elders in
truth, wisdom and activity.
Traditions are lovely things, when well planned and considered. Therefore, begin-
ning with this year, we instigated many new ideas for old, and even went to the extent
of taking our Junior Prom to Washington. The results were well worth the trouble,
however; and with our .uklcd lionois in athletics, scholarship, .ind other activities, we
passed on to our Senior year.
And now as we stand ready to receive our diplomas, we are reluctant to commence
our new existence, because we realize it will mean separation from all we have held
so dear. Our only solace will be returning to the old school, and finding a University
with wonderful improvements, even excelling our wildest hopes.

JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY
Ah! Well do we remember
'Twas the last week in September
That the Soph'mores loosed their paddles
And our days of peace were o'er.
And whene'er there came a tapping.
Even though a gentle rapping.
Quick, we ducked beneath the bedstead
For we dared not ope' the door.
These morc-or-less poetical verses depict the feelings
of the never-to-be-forgotten beginning of the class of
nineteen twenty-nine. After we had been assured by the
haberdasher of our home town that our wardrobe con-
tained all the essentials of a correctly attired college man,
and had received the final counsel of our families, we arrived
at College Park to take up the task of becoming highly
educated gentlemen.
Our advent attracted no further attention than occa-
sional rude laughs from the upper classmen and a bit
more personal attention from the Sophomores. The first
few days of our college career were spent in carrying
trunks, suit cases, and other sundry baggage to the rooms
of upper classmen, and in composing a program of studies.
Classes were next in order and for several weeks a bit of
studying was reported in the Freshman dormitory. Studies
were frequently interrupted by visits of the Sophomores,
who have a certain terrifying way of conducting them-
selves. Upon one occasion, the entire Freshman class was

not only invited, but commanded, to attend a party
given in their honor. This was a very enjoyable affair —
for the upper classmen — who presided without any
mercy. The object of the gathering was said to be
educational. It was! From then on it was clear to all
that Freshman Rules were to be enforced. They were!
Football was in full sway and we were compelled
to attend all home games in a body and lend our vocal
powers in suport of the team. Some of the more
athletically inclined members of the class formed the
Freshman team which had a very creditable season,
losing but one game and that to the Navy Plebes.
The fraternities soon began a season of concentrated
rushing and the "Sessions" took on a fraternal aspect in
the Dorms. On pledge day some accepted bids, others
did not. We are still wondering which group had the
most sense.
Thanksgiving brought holidays and a football game
with Hopkins which ended in a tie. The tie brought no joy to our ranks, but the holi-
day brought plenty; and for a few days we did not have to spend time making excuses
for unpreparedness. From Thanksgiving till Christmas was just existence. The mono-
tony, however, was broken by the Freshman Frolic. The efforts of our class to present
entertainment to the upper classmen were evidently unappreciated, for our entrance
on the stage was greeted with catcalls, hoots and old vegetable matter. Even though we
were hosts at a dance which followed, our feelings were not considered in the least, and
our girls were removed by those who had considerable more experience in that line.
The weeks following the Christmas holidays were a veritable nightmare. Examina-
tions were but three weeks off, and for some they represented nothing short of calamity.
The only pleasurable interruption in this period was the annual snowball battle between
the Freshmen and Sophomores. The stakes were the removal or continuance of the
Rat Rules, according to the winner. At the designated hour the Freshmen were not
met by the second year men alone, but by the entire student body. However, there were
a number of very husky gentlemen in our class, so the tide of battle turned our way
and a terrific drubbing was administered to those who were not our classmates.
Examinations over, the class settled down to a few months of easy breathing.
Some had gone home on advice of their deans,
others got probation, but the majority passed all
their courses comfortably. Basketball now took
the throne in the kingdom of athletics and loud
were the Freshmen in their support of the quintet.
The Freshman five performed excellently, and their
efforts were rewarded by having but one defeat on
their record, the Navy Plebes again turning the
trick. The Varsity had a very successful sched-
ule as they beat the Navy, among other leading
fives of the Southern Conference.
With Spring came romance. The Junior Prom
found the Freshmen on the outside looking in;

to attend. Badges, newly acquired, began to , ,.,.„, , ^ , . „ « ,j ,

and a bit of whispered comment from time to
time passed among those who were in the know.
Just the passing fancies of young men in Spring!
Baseball, track, and lacrosse commanded the
attention of those who were determined to obtain
their numerals. The last mentioned game was
something new to the majority and because of its
novelty drew many candidates. Each of the
Freshman teams in these sports had fair seasons,
and the wise ones nodded at one another and
talked of the possible varsity material in the class.

As time is wont to do, it passed; and autumn brought us back to College Park tj
further equip ourselves for life's battles.
Lorldly were we Sophomores, the educators and tormentors of Freshmen — and, oh
what a lovely lot of young things had been committed to our care. We saw to it that
they lacked no attention. We carried not a grip nor trunk that Fall. They were
menials at our bidding, while we were loud in our commands and terrible in our demands.
The football team had been in practice for some time, and among the candidates
for varsity positions were members of our class. We were all pulling for their success
and the practices showed great prospects for a fine season on the gridiron.
Our party for the Freshmen was a huge success, and the Freshmen were duly in-
structed and impressed with their duties for the coming year.
The football team was highly successful dur-
ing our Sophomore year, numbering among its vic-
tims the mighty blue of Yale. After this victory,
the school went wild. The bonfires removed all
of the surplus timber from the campus and much
wood that was not surplus. Hopkins was encoun-
tered and vanquished on Thanksgiving Day, bring-
ing to a close one of the most successful seasons
Maryland has had for some years.
Christmas arrived with the delightful holidays
that accompany it, and departed leaving us star-
ing into a void of three weeks at the end of which
loomed examinations. Exams passed, however, and
only a few of the class went with them. The
sun came out again, and for a few months more
our life was happy.
The basketball team had entered the field of
competition and was conceded to be the best in the
South Atlantic group of the Southern Conference.
With Spring came a long series of dances and
other social festivities. The Sophomore Prom was
a shining example of the strength of the class

time would come, and how! Lacrosse, track, and baseball commanded the attention of
the athletically inclined; and more letters were in prospect for our class.
June brought exams and partings, and thus the second rung of the ladder to a
degree was scaled.

Juniors! What a strange, what a dignified term. No vulgar chastisements of Fresh-
men was our lot, but an aloof concern with the task at hand. The Old Guard was
again in the seat of learning, planning for the best of years.
Rushing season held no thrills, classes held nothing new. We were sophisticated!
The year would be one of easy pleasure and study. The rough places of college were
gone, and we were masters of all the arts of deception in class, and the ways of women (we
knew enough to leave 'em alone and not try to figure them out) . We were Juniors!
Football was foremost in our minds as Dame Rumor had it that the team would
be the greatest of all times. The first few games
seemed to prove that for once rumor contained
some truth. However, as the season wore on, in-
juries and the extreme difficulty of the schedule
began to tell on the team; and Thanksgiving
day saw Hopkins defeat us by one point.
In the meantime, the campus was being beau-
tified. Macadam roads were put in and the
grounds ornamented with thousands of beautiful
shrubs and trees.
The old routine of classes, holidays, and
exams carried the class into the third Spring of its
existence.
Our Junior Prom was one of the best ever
given, and the only damper placed on the week-
end was the dampening effect of the weather man.
Basketball, baseball, track, and lacrosse ruled
the Sport Realm in their seasons; and the Old
Liners carried on as before, modest in victory "The only damper placed on the week-end was

June found a solid group of men and women at the end of their third collegiate
year. Three years gone and one to go. What does the future hold? Whether the going
be easy or rough, the class of nineteen twenty-nine will faithfully strive to uphold its
name as one of the best classes the University of Maaryland has ever known.

SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY
The class of nineteen hundred and thirty returned to its beloved University last
September eager to renew old friendships and to make new ones. The joy of coming
back was especially keen since we had never experienced that event in our previous
college existence.
With only the social background which a year as Rats, the Freshman Frolic, and
the Prom had furnished us, we began to turn toward our new activities in the role of
Sophomores.
Our attention was first drawn to the new Marylanders, and we didn't forget a single
Rat meeting, abuse, or undeserved punishment which we had received as Freshmen. With
Bill Chaffinch presiding over the Rats, and Edythe Eckenrode ruling the Rabbits, we
had the long-anticipated privilege of giving orders. We had service as efficient as the
most critical Sophomore could wish. The Rat caps and the Rabbits' strange attire were
ointment to our still open wounds. However, our part was not only that of the cruel
master, for we did our best to inspire the new-comers with an awe of the upperclassmen
and a love of Maryland and its traditions.
We were also having our first experience as members of varsity teams, and officers
in various organizations. Football, basketball, baseball, track, and lacrosse boasted of
many prominent athletes who belonged to the class of 1930, and outshone some of the
Juniors and Seniors. Since Sophomores are given credit for being self-loving, opinion-
ated beings who cannot be told a thing, we may as well admit our virtues and claim all
the honors due us.

The Sophomore girls' basketball team completed its second successful year. It
repeated its record of last year, winning all six of the inter-class games played. Now
there are just two more years for us to be champions, and then we'll let the others have
a chance to win. The team which brought us this honor was composed of Catherine
Barnsley, Captain; Margaret Clatlin, Margaret Crunkleton, Estelle Hoffa, Betty Jones,
and Isabel Bewick.
The Sophomore girls also carried off a scholastic honor, since one of the four stu-
dents to get a straight "A" average was Barbara Schilling, a Sophomore in the College of
Arts and Sciences.
Our main social event of the year was the Sophomore Prom, April 4. It was very
successful. The committee to whom credit is due for the arrangements of the dance
was: John McDonald, Chairman; Margaret Wisner, Jerry Powers, Lawrence Small wood.
Delmas Caples, and Bill Kinnamon. It was made formal this year to give it dignity.
Th; decorations were blue and white, the class colors; and they were most artistically
planned. Confetti, the cause of much childish glee, was furnished for the enjoyment
of other classes, while we looked on. Our scheme for keeping the crowd select and
few by making the Prom formal, worked also with respect to refreshments, and this time
no one was left out.
After the Prom we decided that it was time to start to study so that we could keep
our good record and return as Juniors next year. Then we learned the news that there
would be no exams this year, but just three one-hour quizzes in every class; in other
words, three finals instead of one. So, in spite of the nice, cold, rainy Spring days and
evenings, we are all remaining in to study.
June will see us leaving the University with a new feeling of the value of a college
education and the knowledge of one year, especially, well spent.
The officers who led us through this most successful year are: William Chaffinch,
President; Robert Healy, Vice-president; Harry Jarvis, Treasurer; Margaret Wisner,
S:cretary, and Fred Ribinitzki, Sergeant-at-Arms. The class representatives to the
Student Executive Council are Margaret Karr and Lawrence Smallwood.

FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY
We round-eyed, bewildered Freshmen arrived under strange conditions, or rather
our conditions were not strange, but the topsy-turvy state which the University was in
seemed rather queer to us. Soon, however, we began to ignore the dust and tractors;
for our thoughts were diverted by the Rat and Rabbit rules and costumes which were
thrust upon us.
We were an industrious bunch at first; and from time to time it was reported that
Freshmen had been seen in the Library.
After surviving a strenuous rushing season, all of us welcomed the holidays with
open arms; but they were all too short, and we were soon back at school cramming for
mid-years. As is the way of all good classes, in February we lost a few of our illustrious
members, but we nobly bore our loss. With the Spring activities and the many dances,
our unpleasant memories were soon left behind.
Our teams have had rather poor seasons and have been somewhat discouraged by their
lack of success. However, valuable experience has been obtained.
The Freshman Frolic, which gained the prestige of being the worst m the histor)'
of the institution, was later followed by a successful Prom and seemed to complete our
little part in the social whirl of the year.
Although at a later date we cannot be of use as an amusement for the upper class-
men, perhaps we can serve them in some other way.
The officers for this year were: Warren Rabbitt, President; John LeRoy, Vice-presi-
dent; Joy Linton, Secretary; Shaw Blackistone, Treasurer; Elizabeth Brunner, Historian.
Representatives to the Student Council are: Willis Frazier and Jane Hammack.

STUDENT PUBLICATIONS
Student publications at the University of Maryland, along with all other phases of
University activity, have been progressing steadily and are now on a sound working
basis. While the students do most of the planning and the actual work, there is close
faculty supervision, both students and faculty working together in harmonious fashion.
It is with no show of egotism that we state that both the Diamondback, the weekly
paper, and the Reveille, our annual, are greatly improved over the issues of previous
years. Profiting by the experience of those who have gone before, and the constantly
mcreasing staffs of more trained workers, it would be a sad commentary if regular
improvement did not occur.
We are sure the retiring leaders of the Diamondback will pass along a better staff
than the one with which they began the 1927-2 8 term, and the editors of the Reveille
of 192 8 feel that they will do the same for the 192 9 annual.
After all, whatever improvements that accrue from year to year come from that
greatest of all teachers. Experience.
Last year a happy precedent was established in the form of a joint publications ban-
quet, followed by a dance. Brief remarks from faculty advisors and members of the
retiring editorial staffs and the formal introduction of new officers comprised the only
serious moments of the evening. This affair met with such hearty approval that it was
repeated this year, the two staffs joining for an evening's pleasure at the Press Club in
Washington.

THE REVEILLE
The Reveille, the oldest student publication on our campus, was first issued by the
Senior Class of 1897. Since that time publication has been handled by the Junior Class.
The present volume, number twenty-seven, is the culmination of the untiring efforts of
those Reveille Boards who have preceded us.
In the preparation of the 192 8 Reveille, especial attention has been paid to the art
work and interpretation of the theme. The Board has endeavored to make this year's
annual more than ever an accurate mirror of our University life.
In addition to expressing their appreciation of the conscientious work done by the
students on the staff, the editors wish to acknowledge their indebtedness to the following:
H. G. Roebuck & Son, printers, for their splendid cooperation and the unusual inter-
est they have displayed at all times;
White Studio, for their excellent photography;
Canton Engraving & Electrotype Co., for their attention to engraving problems;
John A. Curtin, for his skill and great helpfulness in preparing the major art work;

helpfulness.

HISTORY OF THE DIAMONDBACK
The first college paper issued by the students of the University of Maryland was
published in 1910 and was called the Triangle. It was composed of four pages of four
columns each. This sheet appeared twice a 'month and existed for four years, when it
became the Maryland Agricultural Weekly. Two years later, when the name of the
college was changed to Maryland State, the publication became the Maryland State
Weekly. The Maryland State Review appeared on February 6, 1919, with an increase
in size and subscriptions.
In 1920 the paper was called the University Review, as at that time the Maryland
State College became affiliated with and assumed the name of the University of Mary-
land. However, with the appearance of the first issue an appeal was made to the stu-
dents for a name that would be emblematic of the State University.
So with the last issue of the scholastic year of 1921, was embodied a reorganized
review under the new name, Diamondback. The size at that time was four pages of
five columns each. Since that time the weekly has steadily grown until, beginning
with the fall of 1927, the Diamondback was published each week as a six-column, six-
page paper; thereby becoming one of the largest college weeklies in the South.
During 1927-2 8 with Raymond Carrington as Editor-in-Chief, Mary Jane McCurdy
as Women's Editor, John Schueler as News Editor, Ross Black as Business Manager, and
a staff of more than thirty members, the paper has more than ever reflected the activi-
ties and interests of the faculty and students of the University.

RESERVE OFFICERS' TRAINING CORPS
The work of the Department of Mihtary Science and Tactics has been very suc-
cessful this year. The untiring efforts of Major Lytic ancl his able staff have, to a large
degree, been responsible for this development.
While he is a member of this unit, the student learns many things which will be of
benefit to him throughout his life. The advantages of such training are great, not only
because of the physical development it gives the individual, but also because it prepares
him to render service to his country.
The Reserve Officers' Training Corps is a universal institution among the universi-
ties and colleges of the United States. The War Department holds a general inspection
of these units every year and chooses those above the average. These are placed on the
list of Distinguished Colleges. The University of Maryland unit is now enjoying its
sixth consecutive year upon this list.

DEBATING TEAM
Intercollegiate debating got a good start last year and the team gave a splendid
account of itself, having won a victory over Tennessee, one of the outstanding debating
teams of the South.
It is the purpose of those interested to develop intercollegiate debating as far as
funds will permit, and to place Maryland among the universities whose debating teams
are outstanding in the East.
Last year the University of Maryland scored a signal triumph in winning the
regional contest in the National Intercollegiate Oratorical Association. This splendid
piece of work was done by Clarke Beach, who, besides winning the honor, received a
five-hundred dollar prize.

ENGINEERING SOCIETY
Among the professional organizations on the campus, the Engmeering Society has been
active in bringing about a closer relationship between the members of the various depart-
ments of the College of Engineering. A series of lectures has been sponsored, whereby-
prominent practicing engineers present to the society information concerning oustand-
ing present-day problems in engineering.
In this way students in the Civil, Electrical, Mechanical, and Chemical Engineering
Departments become better acquainted with one another's work.
Officers for this year are as follows:

EPISCOPAL CLUB
The Episcopal Club had its beginning in the Fall of 1920 when a group of Episcopal
men, desiring to found an organization which would meet the demands of the students
from the viewpoint of Christian believers, affiliated themselves with the National Stu-
dents' Council of the Episcopal Church. In 192 3 the men invited those women students
who were Episcopalians or who were interested in the work of the church, to join the
organization.
The club is glad to acknowledge that a major part of its prosperity is due to the
interest shown by the honorary members, especially by our Student Pastor, Dr. Ronalds
Taylor.

HORT CLUB
In the Fall of 1919 seven students of Horticulture under the guidance of Dr. E. C.
Auchter made a rather extensive tour through the fruit section of Maryland and nearby
States. These men came back fired with enthusiasm and soon formed the Hort Club of
the University of Maryland.
At first, meetings were held at Dr. Auchtcr's home, Mrs. Auchter being a most gra-
cious hostess. Later some meetings were held in the Administeration Building. During the
last few years meetings have been held in the Greenhouse once a month.
The Club conducts a Horticultural Show each year, sponsors a judging team, and
has an annual ladies' night banquet. At the monthly meetings the Club members pre-
pare, cook, and serve their own meal. Prominent speakers provide the main part of the
programs.
This year the Club put on the Annual I,adics' Banquet at the College Inn on Decem-
ber 1. About thirty-five couples gathered around the tables and enjoyed a wonderful
banquet as well as a delightful program.
The Hort Club has as its purpose the creation and promotion of interest in Horti-
culture, and the advancement of good-fellowship among its members; and aims to carry
forward such Horticultural activities as will be of credit to our University.
The officers for this year are: President, D'Arcy Bonnet; Vice-President, Fred
Dodge, and Treasurer, Joe Long.

LIVESTOCK CLUB
The Livestock Club, sponsored and supported by the Agricultural faculty and stu-
dents, has a unique and important place in the University life. One of its aims is to
bring practical-minded men to the school to present the experienced farmer's point
point of view on livestock subjects. It also aims to raise funds through its own activities
to help support livestock judging teams representing the University. It sponsors the
annual livestock fitting and showing contest and the horse show. It aids in every way
possible to further the livestock interests of the University and State.
The officers for this )'ear are: President, Frank Witter; Vice-President, Joseph Long;
Secretary, Ralph Nestler; Treasurer, Marion Ross.

NEW MERCER LITERARY SOCIETY
In January, 1860, the Mercer Literary Society, named in honor of Dr. WilHam W.
Mercer, was organized for the cultivation of the intellectual faculties of the students.
From its very beginning its was successful. In 1892 the society underwent several
changes and from that time on has been known as "New Mercer." Three years later an
unsuccessful merger with the Morrill Society was attempted, but a separation soon
occurred.
This organization is not only the oldest student organization at the University of
Maryland, but also has the distinction of being one of the oldest literary societies actively
connected with an American university.
During the past year a series of enliglitening lectures by various members of the
faculty have been sponsored by New Mercer. The benefits of these meetings have not
been confined only to members of the society, but have been enjoyed by many other
students.
As a result of winning the inter-society debate against the Poe Society for the past
two years. New Mercer has but to achieve victory this year in order to permanently pos-
sess the Patterson Cup.
The officers for this year are: EUwood R. Nicholas, President; Milly Woolman, Vice-
IVesident; Edith F. Burnside, Secretary; Ralph Powers, Treasurer; William Wylie, Critic;
,ind Family Herzog, Corresponding Secretary.

POE LITERARY SOCIETY
The Poe Literary Society, founded in 1915, was formally the Morrill Literary Soci-
ety, established in 1900. It has been very successful in its purpose of furthering literary
education and entertainment on the campus.
In 1915, Dr. Patterson offered a silver loving cup to the literary society that won the
inter-society debate three times. The Poe Society won it permanently in 1918. Poe
won it again in 1924 in a new series, but lost to New Mercer in 1926 and also lost in
1927.
Several members of the faculty hold honorary membership in the society: Dr.
Homer C. House, Prof. Charles S. Richardson, Prof. George Schulz, Prof. Cotterman,
Prof. Zimmerman and Prof. Lemon. Others of the faculty who have been members are
H. C. (Curly) Byrd and Dr. L. B. Broughton.
This year Poe Literary Society has continued to play an important part in campus
activities. Literary meetings are held very Wednesday night, and in addition to the
usual programs special features have been offered. A joint meeting was held with New
Mercer at which the societies were entertained with a talk by Gordon F. Cadisch. Its
success caused the society to invite New Mercer later when they heard a speech by Con-
gressman Zihlman.
Duncan Clark has very ably filled the position of President during this year.

CALVERT FORUM
The Calvert Forum is composed of the best speakers of the University and of men
who have shown especial ability as leaders in this line of work. This honorary public-
speaking society is the outgrowth of the Public Speaking Club which was organized at
Maryland some six years ago.
The object of this organization 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. It fosters the general exchange of ideas among the mem-
bers and participates in such activities along this line that will advance the interests of
the University.

Y. M. C. A.
The Y. M. C. A. was organized in the spring of 1924 to fill the need for a Christian
influence on the campus. Since that time it has published annually its Handbook for
the University of Maryland, which is quite valuable in orienting the Freshman class.
This year was opened with the Camp Conoy Freshman Retreat, which proved an
effectual introduction to college life for those fortunate enough to attend. During
registration the "Y" distributed the Handbooks. A number of speakers were obtained
by the Y. M. C. A. for its Monday night programs. Several members attended each of
the conferences held in the Trl-State area and Pennsylvania. Among those conferences
were those at the Universities of Delaware, Gettysburg, and Pennsylvania; and the Cabi-
net Training Conference at Sherwood Forest.
On Sunday evenings the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. hold a joint discussion group,
where problems of vital interest are discussed frankly in order to arrive at the best Chris-
tian interpretations.
Cabinet officers are as follows: Robert Simmons, President; W. Gelston McNeil,
Vice-President; Henry Whiteford, Secretary; William Lamar, Treasurer; Herbert Ward,
Publicity; L. H. Kerns, Socials; William Lucas, Y. W. C. A. Cooperation; Thomas A.
Hughes, Finance; John C. Dumler, Freshmen; Ralph Nestler, Deputations; Frank Witter,
Conferences; Lloyd Groshon, Church Relations; and Herbert Hoopes, Librarian.

STUDENT GRANGE
One of the largest and most active organizations on the campus is the Student
Grange. This is a student agricultural fraternity, and is a part of the large national
fraternity of the National Grange of the Patrons of Husbandry.
Organized in 1915, the Student Grange is one of the oldest and most prosperous
societies of its kind in the country. The major purpose of the organization is to train
young men and women for leadership in rural communities. It gives the students a
direct touch with local and national farm problems. It is a medium through which the
students can be brought in direct contact with the farmers of the State.
Meetings are held twice a month. They are enlivened with business interests and very
entertaining short programs, and brought to a close with refreshments.
The Grange sends degree teams and educational and entertaining programs out to the
chapters in the State.
The officers for this year are: Master, Frank Witter; Overseer, Walter Chapman;
Steward, Reese Sewell; Secretary, Grace Lighter.

THE COTTON PICKERS' MINSTREL SHOW
Kappa Alpha presented its first minstrel show in 1920 under the direction of "Untz"
Brewer. It might be said that in this case "Necessity Was the Mother of Inspiration,"
for the organization was in dire need of funds with which to purchase a chapter house.
The first show was a great success — financially as well as dramatically. With such
an excellent start, the show was presented the following year with many improvements.
When "Untz" graduated, his work was taken over by Ed Lohse whose ability as a direct-
or was so splendid that the show soon became an institution on the campus. Under Lohse's
directorship, Pete Shrider, Kirk Besley, and Bill Molster held forth as end men.
Lohse's place was taken by Ted Olds who was indeed fortunate to have such able
dusky playmates as Simp Simmons, Walker Hale, Milly Price and Charley Shelton on
hand. These boys have made the show even a bigger event than any of its predeces-
sors. For the last two years, the minstrels have been greatly enhanced by "Bunt" Wat-
kin's work as interlocutor.
Among the participants of whom the Cotton Pickers boast are Johnnie Baldwin, a
famous black-face comedian, and Kate Smith, the singing star of Honeymoon Lane.

THE UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND SYMPHONY
ORCHESTRA
Prof. B. F. Goodyear
Director
The University of Maryland Little Symphony
Orchestra, which was originally an adjunct of thf
Maryland Opera Club, has been for the past few years
a separate organization, although it has always played
the instrumental accompaniments for the Opera Club's
presentations.
Organized in 1924 by Professor B. L. Goodyear, the
Orchestra has developed rapidly and its expansion has
been so great that the adjective "little" is no longer
quite appropriate although it continues to be known as
the Little Symphony.
The Little Symphony has broadcast over the radio and presented a number of suc-
cessful public programs, besides playing for many important school functions.
Its most outstanding achievement thus far has been its evening concert, given in
February, 192 8. At this concert the Orchestra devoted the entire second part of its
program to the works of Franz Schubert, in commemoration of the centennial anni-
versary of that composer's death. Especially memorable was the famous "Unfinished
Symphony."
The Little Symphony has done much toward instilling a proper veneration and respect
for the works of the masters. Never has it descended to cheapness of any sort, never
has it swerved from its original policy of "none but the best in music." One may look
at its achievements in the past and feel assured that as a thoroughly artistic organization
it will go far.
Professor B. L. Goodyear, its organizer, has been the director of the Little Sym-
phony since the first days of its existence; and he deserves a great deal of credit for his
work and his untiring efforts in the interests of the University.

STUDENT BAND
Organized this year, for the first time a permanent organization, the Student Band
has made unusual progress. In the past those students who played musical instruments
were asked to play for the University on the spur of the moment, not feeling certain
that they could give satisfaction; so it occurred to a group to found a permanent organi-
zation.
It is the purpose of the Student Band to furnish music when requested for all school
activities; to further the interests of the University and the Band by giving concerts.
The Band played at many athletic contests and pep meetings in addition to offer-
ing its services to the M Club, and the Alumni Association.
The temporary officers were Richard Wagner, Captain; Charles Grey, Drum Major,
and Gelston McNeil, Secretary. The faculty advisor, Mr. Harry Hoshall, has spent a
great deal of time perfecting the organization, and it is largely through his efforts that
the Band was recognized. A capable director. Sergeant Otto Siebeneichen, was re-
sponsible for the Band's making the progress that it did. Lester Baird, John Cowgill,
and Joe Fouts, who drew up the constitution and by-laws, are also largely responsible
for the present standing of the Band.
Uniforms have been promised the Band for next Fall, and a suitable award is to be
given for faithful service. It is expected that, with proper support, this organization
will make steady progress.
First officers elected under the constitution are:
Lester Baird Captain Edward Hudson First Sergeant

THE MARYLAND OPERA CLUB
The Maryland Opera Club, an organization to promote operatic music, was founded
in 1924 by a group of musically-minded students. Elizabeth Swenk, '2 5, was chosen as
its first president, and B. Louis Goodyer, of the Department of Music, held the position
which he still holds, that of director.
The organization has been most successful thus far. The Club's most ambitious
effort is "The Pirates of Penzance," which was presented on March 9, 1927. A broad
travesty on grand opera, abounding in many ridiculous situations and splendid music,
The Pirates were received by a large and appreciative audience. Its popularity led to its
being given again on March 24. The leading roles were sung by Katherine Baker, Olive
Kelk, Stanleigh Jenkins, Dr. Charles B. Hale, E. M. Barron, John McDonald, Albert
Cook, Winifred McMinimy, Helen Wooster, and Julia Louise Behring.
In 192 8 another Gilbert and Sullivan comic opera, "H. M. S. Pinafore," was pre-
sented on March 21 and 22. The leading roles were sung by Lenore Blount, Grenville
Leef, Charles B. Hale, John McDonald, Henry McDonald, Edward Barron and Mar-
guerite Claflin. This hilariously funny, brilliantly tuneful opera was a great success,
and received an enthusiastic reception from the students.
The Little Symphony Orchestra, which has been closely affiliated with the Opera
Club ever since that organization's formation, plays the accompaniments to the Club's
productions.

FOOTLIGHT CLUB
The Footlight Club was organized in the Spring of 1927 for the purpose of pro-
moting dramatics at the University of Maryland. The following year it was reorganized
by some interested students, and secured the support of a faculty committee composed
of Professor C. S. Richardson, Dr. C. B. Hale, and Professor R. M. Watkins.
The Club enjoyed a most successful year both with the presentations given at home
and with those given off the campus. Much of this success is due to Dr. Hale who
directed the productions. Five plays, "The Pot Boiler", "The Monkey's Paw", "The
Man in the Bowler Hat", "Monsieur Beaucaire", and "The Old Soak" were presented
during the past year.

REVEILLE
Once upon a morning dreary, while I slumbered weak and weary,
Slumbered sweetly to the music of a most harmonious snore,
Suddenly there came a blowing, like a cyclone fiercly flowing,
Or a hurricane a-going, going past my chamber door:
"Tis the devil, sure," I muttered, "come from night's Plutonian shore,
After me — and nothing more."
Presently my soul grew stronger — hesitating then no longer:
"Mr. Devil," said I, "truly your forgiveness I implore —
But the truth is I was sleeping" — then, through transom-light a-peeping
I could see no evil spirit, in the air or on the floor;
But I saw the bugler creeping, creeping from my chamber door —
Simply this, and nothing more.
And the bugle still is blowing, still is blowing, still is blowing.
Every solitary morning,' just outside my chamber door;
And the sound has all the seeming, to a man who still is dreaming
Of a screeching fiend of Hades, just outside my chamber door —

FOOTBAL RESUME
The football campaign of
1927 left in its wake a satis-
faction in hard-earned vic-
tories, and a keen sense of dis-
appointment over the defeat
by Hopkins, Maryland's an-
cient rival.
The Washington College
game ushered in the season
for Maryland, and the Old
Liners got away to a good
start by overwhelming the
Eastern Shore team, eighty to

nothing. Roberts' punting, a ninety-yard dash by Thomas, and numerous runs by
Pugh provided the high-Hghts of the one-sided affair.
Maryland continued on her victorious way by decisively defeating South Carolina.
The Gamecocks failed to come up to expectations, and Maryland was able to pile up a
big score in comparatively easy fashion.
After such an Impressive start, the Old Line's defeat in the game with North Caro-
lina at Chapel Hill was a distinct surprise. For the first quarter Maryland looked like
the team that crushed South Carolina; but with the advent of rain, came a slump from
which Byrd's men failed to recover. The first and only Maryland score came in the
first period, when the Old Liners, led by the fine playing of Thomas, pushed their way
across Carolina's line by consecutive rushes.
On the following Saturday Maryland engaged the V. P. L Cadets at Blacksburg, and
this time succeeded in placing her score in the win column. The feature of the game
was Roberts' sensational run. Catching a long punt from Peake, Poly's backfield star,
he wove his way back through the Gobbler defense, and with effective interference by
Jack Keenan, carried the ball over for the second touchdown.

In an exciting game, marred by the collapse of a large portion of the stands at Tate
Field in Richmond, Maryland scored her third Conference win by outpointing Virginia
Military Institute, ten to six. Happily, no one was seriously injured in the collapse of
the stands. Maryland's touchdown came early in the first period, when a series of line
plunges by Thomas and passes by Kessler carried the ball over the line. In the succeed-
ing quarter Roberts booted a beautiful field goal, bring the count to ten, where it stayed
for the remainder of the contest.
Huge crowds of "old grads" and fans from nearby cities packed the Byrd Stadium
on Home-Coming Day, only to witness Maryland's defeat by the Washington and Lee
Generals. However, despite the disappointing outcome of the contest, it is safe to
assume that the huge crowd enjoyed every minute of the spectacle; for it was one of the

hardest fought and, at the same time, most cleanly played games ever staged at College
Park. Washington and Lee brought an alert and fast combination and won by virtue
of playing a headier game. The Generals' first score was the result of a recovered
fumble. Maryland's touchdown provided the feature of the day, for it was brought
about by a thrilling fifty-five-yard dash for a touchdown by "Augie" Roberts, Mary-
land's halfback. This beautiful run did much to erase the sting of the defeat. After
this, the teams battled on even terms until a fumbled punt near the close of the fray was
turned into a Washington and Lee touchdown.
Maryland was completely swamped by Yale in the game at New Haven, thirty to six.
Caldwell led the Bulldogs' attack in fine style, and the Old Line made but one touch-
down. This lone touchdown almost made up for the crushing defeat; for it came
as the result of a ninety-yard dash by Snitz Snyder, Maryland halfback. Catching a
punt, Snyder wove his way through the entire Yale team, aided by effective interference
by Young. It was the longest run ever made in the Yale Bowl, and the one bright spot

in an otlicrwise drab day for the Maryland rooters who made the long trip.
Continuing on the down grade which they seemed to strii<e after the Washington and
Lee game, the Terrapins met defeat at the hands of Virginia. Maryland was unable to
get under way properly; and the alert Cavalier team, taking advantage of the breaks,
succeeded in piling up three touchdowns. Virginia flashed good football and deserved
the win, but did not outclass Maryland quite as much as the score would indicate. Rob-
erts and Linkous were the only Terrapins who played up to their usual game, the sterling
play of the sophomore quarter giving Maryland rooters their only chance to cheer.
At Nashville on the following Saturday, Maryland encountered one of the best
teams in the South and turned in a creditable performance against a superior combina-
tion. Thirty-two points were piled up by Vanderbilt during the first half, while Mary-
land was counting six; but in the second, the Old Liners developed a driving force
that netted fourteen more. Pugh and Snyder were in the limelight for Maryland, get-
ting away for much-needed runs; and Tenney provided the amusement of the day by
completely divesting a Vanderbilt runner of his moleskins while attempting a tackle.
But the mightiest blow came with terrifying suddenness in the shape of a fourteen
to thirtceen defeat at the hands of Hopkins — the Baltimore school's first victory over
Maryland in eleven years. An ironically misnamed Thanksgiving Day was the occasion
of the sad event. The first half started with Maryland's second team, supplemented by

members of the third team, somewhat bewildered by Hopkins' attack; and ended with
the players in much the same condition. During this time Hopkins accumulated a lead of
fourteen points, which came largely as the result of superlative punting by Lyons and
a really speedy Hopkins attack. After the first team got into action. Old Line sup-
porters breathed easier; and with the scoring of two touchdowns in the second half, they
began to foresee a repetition of the 1926 contest. But this was not to be. With the
score thirteen to fourteen, Maryland was employing straight rushing tactics and was
well on the way to the third touchdown and victory, when an unfortunate attempt at an
aerial game was broken up, and the golden opportunity lost. However, to take a philo-
sophical attitude, the defeat was probably for the best in the long run; for it gave the
Blue-Jays a long unknown thrill, and provided a topic for discussion In the operating
rooms of the future.

Another one-point defeat was Maryland's portion when the University of Florida
was met at Jacksonville on December third. Florida counted seven points to the Old
Liners' six; but the Maryland team kept Florida's back to the wall during the entire
second half, seeming to lack just the necessary punch to advance the ball across the line.
Roberts again proved to be the star of the game, making a thirty-eight-yard run for
Maryland's score, -ind keeping the 'Gators in constant hot water by virtue of his excel-
lent punting. Both teams played well, considering the rain and the soggy ground; and the
Old Liners showed up to very good advantage despite the one-point defeat.

The 1927 freshman Football Squad comprised one of the greenest aggregations seen
here in a long time. But although it quite failed to cover itself with glory, it neverthe-
less showed great improvement at the end of the year. A tie with the Virginia yearlings
and a victory over the Catholic University freshmen in the last game, was the best the
Old Line freshmen could do, despite a real fighting spirit. However, Coach Faber suc-
ceeded in developing a fairly creditable combination before the close of the season, and
will perhaps send several capable men up for next year's varsity eleven.

BASKETBALL RESUME
Basketball teams par excellence have become of late
the accepted thing at the University of Maryland; so,
accordingly, the record of fourteen victories in eighteen
games for the past season caused no great amount of
surprise.
Coach Shipley's charges played consistently good
basketball throughout the entire season, and finished in
the forefront of the Southern Conference, losing only
one Conference game, that with Virginia.
The inaugural contest was with Washington and
Lee at College Park, and resulted in a rather easy defeat
of the Generals by the Old Line men. Following this
Maryland departed on a three-game tour of Virginia,
during which V. P. I., V. M. I., and Washington and
Lee again were met and rather decisively defeated.
Home once more, Gallaudet fell before the Old
Liners, as did Kentucky, from whom much more oppo- Tid Olds, Manai^cr

sition was expected. Then the Terrapins sustained their first defeat of the season at
the hands of an ancient rival, Hopkins. In a thriUing battle staged at Carlin's in Balti-
more, the Blue Jays downed the Old Line aggregation by a two-point margin.
Virginia was downed by six points and Stevens by seven before Maryland's second
defeat took place. This sad event occurred at Annapolis where the future admirals
rather decisively took the measure of Coach Shipley's proteges in a game marked by
loose refereeing and numerous long shots for points.
The highly touted Pennsylvania combination was the third to take Maryland into
camp, in an exciting contest at Philadelphia. Maryland played a good game, but the
Quakers were about four points better, garnering thirty to the Old Liners' twenty-six.
Again swinging into the win column, the Maryland court men proved their superi-

ority over North Carolina State, but three days later played their worst game of the sea-
son, when Virginia took their measure by a lopsided score. The Old Liners were
decisively off form, as is evidenced by the score of thirty-four to twelve.
From this time on, the record sheet is clear of defeats. Maryland vanquished Wash-
ington College in a close contest, and then retaliated for a previous defeat by conquer-
ing Hopkins. This last-mentioned contest was a thriller from start to finish, being
rous^h enough to add a certain zest in the eyes of the spectators. The result was in doubt
until the last few minutes, when the Old Liners, encouraged by vociferous cheering,
took a lead from which they were not toppled.
After such a contest, the game with Virginia Polytechnic Institute was naturally
somewhat of an anti-climax. The Gobblers showed up somewhat poorly and Maryland
won in comparatively easy fashion.
The one remaining game proved more of a battle than was expected, for Western
Maryland brought a fighting combination to College Park and was only subdued by
the Old Liners after a nip and tuck fight. One point was the margin of victory.
Unfortunate scheduling prevented the representation of Maryland in the Southern
Conference Tournament. Judging from the result of the season's contests it might be
safely assumed that the Old Line school would have taken a high place.
The team as a unit displayed such form that it is difficult to pick outstanding stars,
but Radice and Dean, with their consistently brilliant play were rewarded with places on
the mythical all-State five. Captain Linkous performed in his usual competent style,
as did Adams, Heagy, Evans, Hetzel, and Madigan. Wonderful things are expected for
the 1928-29 season; for with the exception of Adams and Linkous, the entire team will
return. Moreover, except for Captain-elect Dean,' every .man returning who played a
regular position is a sophomore, which fact aug'urs well for future Maryland basketball
teams.

Freshman basketball really attracted more than a little attention this year. Due
to the exceptional playing of the yearlings, many fast and fascinating games were well
attended by the student body; and a great deal of interest was taken in the usually
insignificant freshman games. The freshmen were able to win a large percentage of
their engagements.
A great deal of the credit for these consistent victories is due to the skilled coaching
of Jack Faber, who drilled his team continually on the fine points of the game .If the
members of the team continue to improve, several of them should have no difficulty in
finding varsity berths next year.

The annual Inter-Fraternity Basketball Tourney was this year won by the Delta
Sigma Phi quintet, which showed power throughout the play, and was easily victorious
over Sigma Phi Sigma in the final round. Led by Burt McGann, diminutive but bel-
ligerent and aggressive forward, the winners played really good basketball, their superior
team play counting heavily in every game.
The Tourney was, as usual, cleanly contested, and was not marred in any way by poor
sportsmanship or bickering. Such a series is decidedly beneficial in fostering friendly
relations between the various fraternities; and it is to be hoped that it will long remain
an institution at Maryland.

TRACK RESUME
The indoor campaign of 192 8 was not unsuccessful, although it did not quite
measure up to that of last year. Whiteford and Sheriff were sorely missed on the relay
team, although Remsburg ran well in the vacated position.
The first'test for the Old Liners came in the form of a one-mile relay competition
with the Harvard and Pennsylvania fours, which Coach Byrd's men won in the time of
5 minutes, 28 seconds. The race was closely contested throughout; and the result was
in doubt until Captain Matthews, running at anchor for Maryland, crossed the finish
line. J 1 J
The University of Richmond meet next attracted the attention of the Maryland
trackmen, practically the entire squad taking part in this engagement. The best the
Old Line squad could do, however, was to place second to Virginia in total number of
points scored. The Cavaliers flashed excellent form in almost every event. The forty-
five yard hurdle event provided one of the closest races of the evening, Kinnamon of
Maryland being nosed out for first place in the last few yards by Decker of W. and L.
Other Maryland men who placed were Blanz and Linzey, second and third respectively

The one-mile relay proved a disappointment to Maryland followers at the annual
meet of the New York A. C. Yale and Colgate were the Terrapins' opponents in this
race, which Colgate won. Pugh, first runner for Maryland, fell during his quarter, thus
putting Maryland out of the running. It is significant that the winning time of
3:29 2/5 was over a second slower than that made by the Maryland four in their first
race.

redeeming feature of the evening was Bob Quinn's victory in the open fifty. Running

this uncertainty provided a thrill not unusually encountered in track and field meets.
Unusually good marks were set in the next engagement, that with Harvard and William
and Mary at Williamsburg. This triangular affair was easy for Harvard; but Maryland
placed second and showed, in general, good form. The most notable performances by
Maryland athletes were the winning of the 220 and 440, by Matthews and Thomas,
respectively.
Maryland's chances for a good season are unusually high.

The freshman track squad bids fair to furnish valuable performers to next year's
Old Line varsity. Thus far, two meets of the schedule have been run off, the freshmen
breaking even, with a loss to the Navy plebes and a win over Baltimore Polytechnic
Institute.
The Annapolis plebes proved too strong for the yearlings, though their superiority
was chiefly in the track events. McDonald of the freshmen succeeded in counting
seventeen points, all in field events. This particular freshman should prove extremely
valuable next year, for the varsity needs bolstering chiefly in field events.
Baltimore Poly was easy, for the boys from the Monumental City were able to
gather only three first places. Ziegler and McDonald were the big guns for the freshmen.
With a little development, the present freshman track team should furnish many
capable men for next year's varsity.

CROSS-COUNTRY RESUME
Maryland's cross-country teams have a record of sustained excellence, gained over
a period of many years. Although somewhat overshadowed by football, the Old Line
harriers do their share in contributing to Maryland's athletic renown.
The members of this squad deserve a great deal of credit, for every fall afternoon
finds them toiling wearily over the hillsides, training for the meets. This daily grind
in all kinds of weather and over every kind of country has earned for them the col-
loquialism of "Suicide Club," certainly an apt cognomen.
The 1927 season proved no exception to the established rule, for the Old Liners
returned victorious in three of five meets and took fifth place in the Southern Confer-
ence Tourney at Chapel Hill, North Carolina. The first engagement of the season was
at Blacksburg with Virginia Tech. Here Maryland was defeated by one point. Myers,
Morris and Gadd finished second, third and fourth respectively, but the absence of two
of the Old Liners, Schrieber and Remsburg, because of illness, handicapped the team con-
siderably.
The next contest was with Washington and Lee at College Park, in which the
Terrapins proved easy winners, by an 18-37 score. Myers, Remsburg and Gadd finished
one, two, three in order, closely followed by Morris and Schrieber in fifth and sixth posi-
tions. This meet was run concurrently with the football battle with the Generals on
Home-Coming Day. The finish came between the halves, and the decisive victory made
up in some measure for the gridiron defeat of that day.
Following this, Maryland took William and Mary into camp in rather easy fashion.
Myers finished first, followed by Gadd, Remsburg, Morris, and Plumley in third, fourth,
Two hundred forty one
fifth and sixth positions, respectively. The best the Old Liners could do at the South-
ern Conference meet was to take fifth place, with Myers, as the first Maryland man,
finishing in eleventh place. However, such a showing, considering the wealth of mate-
rial competing, was as good as could have been expected.
Virginia proved somewhat difficult, for Coach Truitt's men had their hands full in
winning by a one-point margin. Gadd and Myers finished in a dead heat for second
place, providing quite an exciting finish.
On Thanksgiving Day, the Old Liners' hard luck, extended to the cross-country
course, and Hopkins won by a 27 to 30 score. Hopkins runners placed one, two,
three, and were followed by three Maryland men, Myers, Gadd, and Plumley, for fourth,
fifth, and sixth places.
Despite the final defeat, no reason for lamentation can be found in the 1927 record
of Maryland's cross-country team; for our men performed in a highly creditable manner
and gained their share of victories.

LACROSSE RESUME
Lacrosse, that sport in which Old Line teams always
seem strong, has again started its season at Maryland. At
the time of this writing it seems that the Terrapins are
represented by one of the strongest combinations of all
time.
This season promises to hold some of the best com-
petition ever seen in the Indian game; for it is expected
that the intercollegiate winner will be selected to repre-
sent the United States in the Olympics.
The Old Line stickmen got off to a good start when
they defeated Randolph-Macon 10 to 1. The visitors
furnished little trouble for Maryland, and the Old Line
first team performed only about half of the contest.
Linkous, playing in-home for Maryland, was the big
gun in the Terrapins' attack, scoring four goals.

Harvard was next met and easily subdued. The Old Liners looked ragged during
the first half, but found themselves in the following period and scored goal after goal.
Linkous and Holloway, with five and four goals respectively, were Maryland's scoring
aces.
Georgia Tech was the next victim, being routed by a 16 to 3 score. The Yellow-
Jackets furnished little opposition, and the Old Line team did not have to extend itself
to win.
At Charlottesville, the Terrapins continued their rampage, trampling Virginia under
foot by a 17 to 1 score. The Cavaliers gave little or not opposition, as was expected.
Lacrosse is new at Virginia and they have not had sufficient experience to master it.
Maryland scores were evenly divided among Linkous, Evans, Smink, Snyder, Ady, and
Holloway, the first three scoring three apiece and the others two.
At the time this book goes into the printer's hands, Maryland has met no foe worthy

of her mettle. Consequently the future is problematicil. Colgate, the next battle on
the list, is expected to provide plenty of opposition.
Jack Faber, new coach for the Old Line team, only recently was handling the stick
himself for Maryland; and he seems able to impart to the players that skill which brought
glory to him. Prof. Truitt, who has coached Maryland men in the game for many
years was obliged to resign because of other duties, but Faber seems to have imbibed that
knowledge of lacrosse which has made Prof. Truitt one of America's recognized authori-
ties on the game.

The Maryland freshman lacrosse team is at present fast mastering the intricacies of
the Indian game. In the first contest of the season with Friends School of Baltimore,
they were defeated, but showed up well, considering their lack of experience. A great
deal of improvement was shown when Baltimore City College was decisively defeated.
It is practically certain that Coach Smith will send to next year's varsity team a
number of men well versed in the game.

BASEBALL RESUME
Baseball at the University of Maryland is a sport that usually develops an array of
talent, but that for some reason arouses little interest in students. In previous years the
Old Line school has always been represented by teams which usually conclude a season
with the victories outbalancing the defeats.
The 1927 season was, on the whole, a successful one. Victories over Yale, Penn-
sylvania, Lehigh, and Richmond together with several other victories contributed to
make the campaign a highly gratifying one.
Coach Shipley faced a rather hard task this year in developing material. With
Kessler and Bromley the only two letter men returning, the prospects of picking a capa-
ble nine from an array of green material was anything but encouraging. The Old Liners
completed a Southern jaunt which proved somewhat disastrous, for they dropped six

out of eight games; losing to North Carohna University twice, Georgia twice, Georgia
Tech, and South Carohna, and winning from Virginia and North Carohna State.
However, this unfortunate record was somewhat expected; and considering the
greenness of the material and the short time available for practice, the Old Liners have
done as well as could be expected of them.
Coach Shipley has a way of working wonders witli new material; therefore it is to
be hoped, or even expected that by the time this book is opened, the team will have con-
cluded a successful season.

Coach "Bunt" Watkins, who besides tutoring the freshman basketball squad, pre-
sides over classes of scared Freshmen in Public Speaking, has evidently enunciated his
commands most clearly, for he has developed a yearling combination that to date has
made an impressive showing.
Only one of five games has been lost so far by the Old Line Freshmen, wins being
earned over Navy Plebes, Central High, and other teams of like caliber.
Undoubtedly, a great freshman club has been organized by Coach Watkins, one
that will furnish much needed players of sterling worth to future varsity nines.

TENNIS RESUME
The development of the Old Line net squad has been retarded considerably by con-
tinued bad weather and the poor condition of the courts. The first two scheduled
matches, those with Western Maryland and Virginia have been cancelled because of
rain. Basing a forecast on material available, however, it would seem that Maryland
was due for a successful net campaign, for five of last year's varsity squad are still in
harness and capable racketers have come up from last year's Freshman outfit.
Maryland tennis squads have always labored under a distinct disadvantage, in that
there is no regularly appointed coach for this sport, the duty of rounding the team
into shape usually falling upon the captain and manager. The playing facilities, too, are far
from being of the best, so taken all in all, the quality of teams usually turned out is
amazing. A rather large impetus was received two years ago, though, when the minor
letter was abolished at Maryland, and letter awarded to the members of the tennis team
was identical with that given to members of other teams.
It was two years ago, also when the Old Liners hung up an enviable record by win-
ning a virtual championship of the three states, Maryland, Delaware, and Virginia, by
conquering the best teams of those states.
Last year's net team did not quite come up to that standard, but it acquitted itself
fairly well nevertheless.
Manager Nicholas has this year arranged a schedule which is perhaps the hardest
ever undertaken by a Maryland tennis team. Such teams as Navy, Hopkins, V. P. I.,
Two hundred fifty seven
and Swarthmore, which would give any team a battle, are listed. To conquer these the
Old Line net aggregation will have to flash good form, but Captain Shelton and the
member of the team are confident Maryland will not be found wanting when the time
comes.
As this book goes to press the first match prevented by unfavorable weather condi-
tions has just been completed, that with Virginia Polytechnic Institute. This match
resulted in a win for Maryland by a six-one score, which victory augurs well for future
engagements.

RIFLE RESUME
This year has marked a big step in the progress of the University of Maryland's
rifle team. In May, 1927, the team was officially recognized by the Athletic Associa-
tion, and the coveted M was awarded to the team members whose scores had counted
in more than fifty per-cent of the matches. This action caused a more widespread
interest in rifle shooting, and the team has very successfully completed a schedule against
the best teams in the country.
Last year the Maryland riflemen competed in the National Rifle Association League
B matches and finished the season tied for first place with New York University. This
season, although firing against more advanced competition, our sharpshooters have won
second place in their league by virtue of having defeated Hopkins, V. M. I., V. P. I.,
Pennsylvania, Western Maryland, and others.
An enviable record has been built up in the last two years by having won every
shoulder-to-shoulder match. This year's team holds the State Championship, having
defeated the Navy at Annapolis, and Hopkins and Western Maryland on the College
Park range.

COEDUCATION
In 1916 the University of Maryland first opened its doors to women on the same
terms as men, and that year two girl entered. One took a two-year course, and one a
four-year course, so in 192 0, the first girl graduated from the regular four-year college
course.
The first two girls held sway until 1918-19, when five new girls appeared on our
campus. The enrollment of girls in 1919-20 was 24, and in 1927-28, was 257. These
numbers speak for themselves. There is no need to dwell further upon the ever increas-
ing stream that is pouring into the University.
The question of housing is grave because of the limited accommodations in the
three small campus houses, Gerneaux Hall, the Y Hut, and the Practice House, which
are used as residences for 52 girls. We have three sorority houses, which this year take
care of 43 girls, and two approved off-campus houses, "The Homestead", and "Merri-
man Manor", which accommodate 44. The rest of the girls live in private homes recom-
mended by the Dean of Women or come as day students from the surrounding towns.
All of the resident girls, whether in college dormitories, sorority houses, or approved off-
campus houses, are under the college rules.
It is interesting to note that none of the girls' dormitories was built as such. Ger-
neaux Hall was the former residence of the college President, Captain Sylvester being
the last one to use it. The Practice House was built for the use of the Home Economics
Department, and the Y Hut was built as an auditorium and chapel after the fire in
1912. During the war it was used as a Young Men's Christian Association Building.
In 1921 partitions were put up and it was turned into a girls' dormitory. A dormitory
for women is one of the outstanding needs of the University, so it is hoped that the
State Legislature will see fit to provide it.
The Women's Student Government Association cooperates with the Administration
in carrying out the rules and regulations of the University and in solving common prob-
lems. Under the excellent leadership of Miss Frances Freeny, this Association has just
completed the most successful year of its existence. The Executive Council and officers
of the Association have shown cooperation and a seriousness of purpose which have made
them a most efficient group.
There are at the University four sororities: Sigma Delta, founded in 1920; Alpha
Omicron Pi, founded in 1921 as Lambda Tau, and established as a chapter of Alpha
Omicron Pi in 1924; Kappi Xi in 1924; and Alpha Upsilon Chi in 1926. In 1926 the
Women's Panhellenic Council, which handles all sorority matters, was organized.
In the short time women students have been here, they have introduced the Girls'
Rifle Team and Women's Student Government Association in 1922; May Day in 1923;
the Women's Athletic Association in 1924; the Women's Senior Honor Society in 1925;
and Theta Gamma, honorary home-economic fraternity, in 1928.
It is hoped that in the years to come, as the number of women students increases,
we will continue to have the same splendid girls with their sanity of ideas and their high
ideals, who will become imbued with the intangible Maryland spirit, and who will carry
on our traditions and customs and help to perpetuate them.
Miss Adele H. Stamp, our Dean of Women has been the guiding hand of the girls
in their efforts to promote and develop organizations that will benefit our University.
She is rightly the friend and advisor of each girl and it is hoped that she will be with
us for many years.

WOMEN'S STUDENT GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION
All women students of the University of Maryland are members of the Women's
Student Government Association. The aim of this organization is to foster the develop-
ment of good scholarship and high ideals in standards of college life. All social regula-
tions for girls are made through their Executive Council which is composed of elected
representatives. However, all these rules are subject to the approval of the Dean of
Women. In order that the important offices open to girls may be distributed more
fairly, the Women's Student Government Association has put into force a Pomt System.
The officers for this year are: Frances Freeny, President; Mary Jane McCurdy, Vice-
President; Anna Price, Secretary.

PANHELLENIC COUNCIL
In 192 5 the women's fraternities withdrew from the Interfraternity Council to
form a Panhellenic Council. The purpose of this association is to foster a spirit of
friendship and cooperation among the women's social fraternities of the University of
Maryland, to encourage chapters to take an active interest in all college activities for
the common good; and to regulate all matters of local interest to the women's social
fraternities on the campus; to work together for the good of the college; and by coop-
eration to benefit the fraternities of the college and to unify the interests of fraternity
and non-fraternity women. In accordance with these principles, the Council has
worked during the last two years for harmony and good will among its members, and
has been rewarded by the friendship and cooperation shown by the fraternities for each
other. The Panhellenic Council is not a super-regulatory body, but an association work-
ing for mutual helpfulness and advantage, and for recognition by the National Pan-
hellenic Congress when its probationary period is fulfilled.
Among its accomplishments of this year, the Council counts the Panhellenic tea held
for all new women students at the beginning of the year, the policy of exchanging din-
ner guests among the fraternities on alternate Wednesdays, and the establishment of a
new system of rush rules.

WOMEN'S SENIOR HONOR SOCIETY
In the hope of creating a means for the formal recognition of special merit in scholar-
ship and activities, the senior class of 192 5 organized the Women's Senior Honor Society.
Each year, early in the morning of Baccalaureate Sunday, the junior girls are chosen in a
very impressive service, and they form the society for the following year.
To be eligible to the organization, a girl must have an average of "B" for her three
years' work, and have also taken an active part in extra curricular activities.
Being only an honorary society, it does not attempt to take a very active part in
campus affairs. However, in questions where the welfare of the students is concerned,
a definite stand is taken by the society, in an attempt to better campus conditions.
There is but one faculty member of the organization — Miss Adele H. Stamp, who
helped in organizing the society, and has been a great inspiration and guidance ever
since.
Officers for this year are: Ruth T. Williams, President; Grace Lalegar, Vice-Presi-
dent; Frances Gruver, Secretary and Treasurer. Other members are: Mary Jane Mc-
Curdy, Frances Freeny, and Constance Church.

YOUNG WOMEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION
The present Y. W. C. A. is an outgrowth of the College Women's Church Club
which was organized in 1920 with the object of developing Christian womanhood, pro-
moting the Christian life among the women students, and aiding them to lead such a
life. In the spring of 1923 the members of the C. W. C. C. decided to form a Y. W.
C. A. and in May, 1924, they were granted a charter from the National Board of the
Y. W. C. A. 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
coordinate all the religious activities for the women of the University. In cooperation
with the Y. M. C. A. the Y. W. C. A. assumes a major responsibility for the religious
activities of the campus.
This year delegates were sent to three big joint conferences; the Tri-State Fall Con-
ference at the University of Delaware; the Mid- Winter Eastern Conference at Gettys-
burg; and the Spring Cabinet-Training Conference at Sherwood Forest, Maryland.
Plans were made to send delegates to the regional conference at Eaglesmere in June.
As a part of its work, the Y. W. C. A. supplied a Christmas basket for a poor fam-
ily; sent flowers, books, and letters to all women students who were ill, and conducted
a highly successful Big-Sister Movement for the Freshman girls.
Officers for this year were: Geneva Reich, President; Roselle Bishoff, Vice-President;
Nona Miliner, Secretary; Hazel Watson, Treasurer; Margaret Karr, Undergraduate Repre-
sentative. Other members of the cabinet who acted as chairmen of standing commit-
tees are: Jane Kirk, Ruth Barnard, Margaret McMinimy, Barbara Schilling, Mary Stewart
York, and Gladys Bull.

THE QUEEN AND HER MAIDS
May Day was held on May second at the time that the State Federation of Women's
Clubs was visiting the University. Much to our surprise and joy, the day was a beau-
tiful one the sun was shining, and everything was calm and peaceful.
Onto the setting of Gerneaux Green, with the senior girls sitting at one side of the
throne, came three little maids from the planet Earth. They had dropped from an
airplane and had no idea where they were. They espied a queer old woman walking
around and asked her where they could possibly be. She replied that they were in Goose-
land and that she was Mother Goose. She told them that they had chosen a very
auspicious occasion to pay her a visit, for this was May Day in Gooseland. They could
watch her and her children choose the Queen and her court, but first they must meet
her children.
There was Mary, Mary Quite Contrary, Little Bo-Peep, Little Jack Horner, Little
Miss Muffet, Peter Peter Pumpkin Eater, Curly Locks, and many other children of Goose-
land. To entertain the visitors from the planet Earth, the wooden soldiers marched
and danced, the dolls from the various countries gave their national dances, and Mistress
Mary's flowers gave a lovely interpretative dance. Twenty of Mother Goose's children
did the annual Maypole Dance.
A beautiful and gracious Queen was chosen by Mother Goose from the senior girls,
and four lovely maids were chosen by four of her children. Grace Lalegar was crowned
Queen of the May, Frances Freeney was First Maid; Alma Essex, Second Maid: Mary
Jane McCurdy, Third Maid; and Margaret WoU, Fourth Maid.

GIRLS' "M" CLUB
The Girls' "M" Club was organized at the University of Maryland on May 26th,
1926. Any girl who has received a letter in either of the major sports, basketball or
rifle, is eligible for membership.
The purpose of the club is to further athletics and good sportsmanship among the
girls at this institution. Although the membership is naturally limited, the Girls' "M"
Club has had its part in the development of women's athletics which has taken place
during the past two years. It is to be hoped that with the increased number of girls
attending the University, this organization can become more active on the campus.
The officers for this year were: Margaret Wolf, President; Anita Peters, Vice-Presi-
dent; Hazel Krieder, Secretary-Treasurer.

WOMEN'S ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION
Since the origin of this organization in 1924, rapid steps have been made toward
making it a larger and better medium by which to carry out the interests of the women's
athletics of the University. At the start, rifle and basketball were the only sports
provided for in which women could participate. Since the beginning of the Women's
Athletic Association, a Tennis Tournament has been held each Fall and Spring. This is
open to all women students.
For the past two years, this organization has been trying to make swimming one
of the major sports. Although the team must go to Washington for its practice, much
interest has been maintained. This year, for the first time, some progress has been made
in establishing track as a women's sport.
The Women's Athletic Association combines social enjoyment with physical exercise
in its annual banquet, at which time the awards for the year are given to the Rifle Team,
the winning Basketball Team, and the winner of the Tennis Tournament.
The officers for this year are: Constance Church, President; Elizabeth Garber, Vice-
President; Catherine Barnslev, Secretary; and Alma Essex, Treasurer.

GIRLS' RIFLE TEAM
During 1927-28 the
Girls' Rifle Team has re-
rpcndsd nobly to the ch;il-
lengc to live up to its pa:t
reputation. The schedule
included twenty-three tele-
f;raphic matches, of which
1 5 were wan, 2 tied, and 6
failed to report at time of
writing. In addition to
these, two shoulder-to-
shoulder matches were
nred; one, a triangular
match with George Wash-
ington University and
Drexel Institute, the other
with the Men's Team.
In the National Rifle As-
sociation's Women's Intercollegiate Championship Match our team finished second with
a score of 2953 out of 3000, While George Washington University took first with 2972.
Scores from the Dot and Circle Trophy match have not yet been reported, but our
team made an excellent showing in this match.
The high scorers of this year are Hazel Kreider with a score of 1468 out of 1500,
and Alma Essex with 1457 out of 1500.
The change in size of targets this year, which made them half the size of those used
last year, is the cause of the seemingly low scores; but in reality the marksmanship has
been better than ever before.
The team will lose three members through graduation: Alma Essex, Mary Jane
McCurdy, and Frances Gruver. It is our good luck that many of our team's members
are Sophomores, and that there are a surprising number of good shots among the Fresh-
man squad.
Juniors are: Hazel Kreider, Elizabeth Garber, Naomi Morris, Clemencia Gause and
Mildred Hislop. Sophomores are Alice Orton, Margaret Mitchell, Virginia Fooks,
Catherine Barnsley, and Margaret Meigs.

SWIMMING
Early in the Fall it was decided to form an organized swimming club, instead of
an unorganized swimming team. As a result the proposed club was formed and the
following officers were elected: Eleanor Freeny, President; Edythe Eckenrode, Vice-
President; Betty Rodier, Secretary, and Margaret Meigs, Treasurer.
Having no pool here at the University is a great
handicap; but in spite of this, the plunges at the Wash-
ington Y. W. C. A. pool, were well attended. We hope
that at some time in the not too-distant future we will
have a pool at College Park.
Swimming is a sport that nearly all girls enjoy and
we feel that if more would go out for it, an appropri-
ation would be given to help defray expenses.
Though there was a greater number of girls partici-
pating in the sport this year than ever before, we hope
to have even a more sizeable group next year.

TENNIS
This year witnessed a larger turn-out for girls' tennis than has ever before been re-
corded. Forty-five girls signed up for the Fall Tournament. Although the weather was
unusually good and the playing season long, the matches were never completed, due no
doubt, to the bad condition of the courts.
Constance Church, Elizabeth Garber, Marguerite Claflin, and Isabel Dynes won the
greatest number of matches last fall. With "Connie" as victor of last Spring's Tourna-
ment, she has gained recognition as winner of four consecutive series. "Betty"
Garber was runner-up in the Spring Tournament and
shows excellent promise for this Spring.
This year's Spring Tournament has been somewhat
late in starting, and at present the courts are being put
in shape and a great many girls have signed up for
matches. With the excellent material at hand, and
the interest which is shown, there should be keen com-
petition. Inspired with a desire to play "for Sport's
sake" and not merely for personal attainment, the con-
testants will play their matches according to schedule.
This Spring Tournament should be larger and harder
fought than anv ever staged at the Univcrsitv of Mary-
land.
Girls' tennis was managed by Isabel Dynes this year;
she deserves credit for her fine work with the squad.

ROSSBOURG CLUB
Come, ami /rip if as you f^o
On the Ir^bt fantastic toe.
— Milton.
Realizing the social side of college life to be an important phase, a group of old
M. A. C. boys, back in 1891, organized a club for the promotion of such activities. In
the quest for a name, it was recalled what a gay gathering was always in evidence at the
old Rossbourg Inn, still standing directly in front of the University. In consequence,
the new organization was appropriately called the Rossbourg Club.
During the thirty odd years since the club's founding, the college dance has under-
gone many changes. However, Maryland still finds the Rossbourg Club on the campus
and actively engaged each year in conducting five or six of the outstanding dances on
the University social calendar.
A new constitution, adapted to present conditions, has been drafted this year; and
it is certain that the Rossbourg Club is destined to continue to fill the need that exists
among students for such an organization. Officers for 1927-1928 are as follows:
President ..._ Ralph W. Powers

JUNIOR PROM OF 1928
JUNIOR PROM COMMITTEE
Rhythmic music, soft lights, a beautiful ballroom gleaming with the variegated
dresses of the "prom trotters" — such was our Junior Prom. The ballroom of the New
Willard Hotel in Washington was the scene of this, the outstanding event of the Mary-
land social calendar.
Dancing to the unexcelled music of Nesbit's Pennsylvanians, sitting in the boxes or
balcony, or walking the length of the long floor to observe and be observed, were some
five hundred couples of Maryland students and their friends. Here were short girls,
girls from "up state," sophisticated "trotters," girls with the thrill of a first Prom on
their faces, breath-taking girls. And with them, slim boys, embarrassed boys, sopho-
mores wriggling uncomfortably in new tu.xedos, juniors and seniors with coats closely
buttoned to hide the empty pin marks over the heart.
The evening was well under way when everyone stopped dancing to join in the
Grand March, led by Gordon Kessler, Junior President, and Lillian Marceron. Later
came attractive favors and refreshments.
The weather was perfect, all arrangements were carefully executed, the crowd was
happy — what more could one ask for a perfect Prom?

FRATERNITY ROW
Sigma Nu — The virile, "masterful", big deals of College Avenue fame. Here's to the
A O Pi's! "When ole' Knocky Thomas was out on the coast . . ."
Kappa Alpha — The one-shirt, two-pants suits, blue bloods of the campus. I, me, and
us form half of their vocabulary and all of their thoughts (?). "Yea, ole' Charley
Paddock's a K. A."
Delta Sigma Phi — The last of a race of cave-men — leather-lunged, swash-buckling and
heavy-footed sons of Babel. "Did ja' hear the one Slemmer pulled las' night „ "
Phi Sigma Kappa — Barber-shop shaving, marmalade-eating, would-be fashion plates.
"Boy, you should have seen Tite and Weenie las' night!"
Sigma Phi Sigma — The bridge-playing, bed-dumping, mamma-spank boys from across
the tracks. A candidate for every office. "Did ya' ever see our house at Penn
State?"
Alpha Omicron Pi — The big-deal, office-seeking, one-man girls from the "cute little
bungalow" on College Avenue. Shame "Al" Smith as politicians. Still trying to
live down the Burnside's wooden-shoe reputation. "Isn't Gracie the dearest thing
and so smart?"
Sigma Delta — The tabby-hke, healthy-fed marathoners who built themselves a pseudo
castle on fraternity row. Have petitioned every national sorority now in existence.
Still have showers so their alumni can spend more money on them. "Yes, Pi Phi's
are coming out Sunday."
Kappa Xi — Pleasure-seeking, noise-making, thought-abolishing addicts of Phi-Sigism.
Handicapped by Christine Brumfield, who is still vainly seeking her initial thought.
"Did you really like our Revue?"
Alpha Upsilon Chi — The fireside-loving, bashful-looking, long-skirted exponents of
the delights of the kitchen. Close kin to Alpha Gamma. Still think the square
dance is spicy. "Doesn't Tig' Gruver look like a sweet little high school girl?"
Delta Mu — The boys from down by the tracks who give away the pins in wholesale
lots. Pride of Professor Lemon's more than ample heart. Fairly quiet except for
Hopkins and Ryerson, who can raise enough racket for any fraternity. "Wait till
you see our new house."
Delta Psi Omega — The high-marks loving, corn-planting, early-to-bed proteges of Bunt
Watkins. Know every textbook from cover to cover — inside. "That Sam Moles-
worth is sure a dude; been out two nights, hard-running till 'most two o'clock."
Nu Sigma Omicron — The girl-importing, house-partying, fliver-model sons of iniquity.
World's long-distance petitioners. They once had a car with all of its parts.
"I mean we were on a party that was a party last night — and how!"
Sigma Tau Omega — The home for bashful boys. Still wondering if the war's over
and telling why the chicken crossed the road. "Sam Wlnterberg was a pretty durn
good tackle."
Alpha Gamma — The early-rising, cow-milking, overall-wearing sons of the soil. Know
all the dairy cows by their first names. They still shy at automobiles and buy ice-
cream cones on Sataurday nights only. 'T 'spect I'll have to be gittin' home early
this summer to help Pap with the crops."

"I Walked Up the Campus Toward the Dorms''
A VISIT TO OUR CAMPUS
^)^hen the train stopped somewhere north of Washington, the conductor told me I
had reached my destination, College Park, Maryland. College Park is the place where
that world-renowned state institution (not to be confused with Sing Sing or Leaven-
worth) is located. It was pitch-dark and foggy when I stepped off the local into a soft,
mushy combination of clay and water. I finally succeeded in extricating myself, and,
going from one muddy road to another, collected many samples of Maryland mud.
Solid ground was reached, much to my surprise, after several league of wading. This,
then, was the new road they had proposed building for the past ten years. I gazed on a
view somewhat reminiscent of shell-torn France. With steam rollers to the right of
me and tractors to the left of me, I walked up the curving campus highway toward the
dorms.
The next morning I went up to the "Mess" Hall for breakfast and met Ed Christ-
mas, the twelve-minute egg that works there and his boot-black, George Burroughs. Ed
said, "Have you paid yet?" I said, "No, I haven't, Mr. Xmas." He said, "Gimme
thirty-five cents or I'll knock you dead!" I had a breakfast of bacon and liver, liver
and bacon, and liver. When I finished, I dropped down to Bill White's to get a real bite
to eat. Here I met a campus celebrity (at least he told me he was) named Barney Rob-
bin. He insisted on showing me around the campus. Barney pointed out the stadium
and criticized it in a legal manner as being architecturally imperfect.
Somewhat later, we made our way up the hill to the new edifice of which all Mary-
land is proud — the new Chemistry Building. This building was built and finished, and
left idle for a semester in order to give visitors the idea that Maryland was perpetually
putting up new buildings. I later learned that the idea for erecting new buildings on
the campus was sponsored by several faithful advocates of campus needs in the Public
Speaking classes of Professors Richardson and Watkins. The sentiment was brought
about by these faithful members giving continuous, soul-stirring and eloquent speeches
on that monotonous subject, "Campus Improvements."
The "Ag" Building, or Administration Building as some call it, was just above, so
we entered and were ushered into Mr. Byrd's office. Mr. Byrd's secretary took our names,
informed us that Mr. Byrd had just stepped out but would be back in a half hour, and
asked if we would like to leave any message. (Note: Mr. Byrd is always out. His
secretary has this form memorized from constant telephone inquiries.) We found out
that the only people who were ever in Mr. Byrd's office were eleven football players,
other luminaries and his secretary.

niiiitiiiiuiiHnm"""»"""'"""""
We then crossed the hall to the Registrar's office and were sent up stairs to the
Arts and Science Department to a young man named Professor Gordon Cadisch who,
before his career on the Liberal Arts Faculty, was a well-known Wall-Street financial
wizard. He seemed very glad to see us and asked if we had been to Europe latel'y.
Barney answered for both of us (as he had been doing continuously) that we had
not, but that he hmisclf knew all he wanted to know about Europe. At present
he was engaged in the more important legal business of investigating the Mississippi Flood
Relief in Congress with his friend, Judge Schulz. From there we went downstairs, but
the man in the Post Oflice was asleep, so we didn't ask for our mail. Barney explained
that General Service rendered very little to anyone and the name was just traditional.
Dropping into Bill White's for lunch we were astonished to hear the voices of Pro-
fessor Watkins and Ted Olds over the radio getting in some close harmony on a little
number entitled, "Whitewash and Ventilate Your Coops so Your Chickens May Be
Healthy." Maryland's great health center, the College Park Bowling Alleys, was just
below, so we looked in there and viewed several faculty members galavantin' around like
a bunch of young cut-ups, recklessly tossing the balls down the alleys, and letting out
warhoops when the pins would drop. Barney suggested going up to the Reveille office
in the gym, as he wished to see the editor about not personally delivering his copy of the
school paper. The Reveille office was closed; and Brown of Harvard, the only man
around, explained to us that the office was never open and very little, if any, work was
done there. He said the boys used the room as a place to eat their lunch.
We then visited the R. O. T. C. offices where "Sergeant" Flautt puts out the regula-
tion R. O. T. C. outfits that never fit, and tells you you look good in them. After an
abbreviated stay, we went up to the Hospital, but nobody was there — not even the
nurse, Miss Raezer. Here, I learned that the doctor's standard line is, "All you need
is a pink pill." Just across was Morrill Castle, a stately OLD structure that
is gradually falling into decay. We
went into the Engineering Building
to see Dean Johnson, but only reached
the head of the stairs. The junior
Civils were battling their ancient ri-
vals, the Electricals, for the control of
the building. 'Nuff said!
At supper time I followed the
crowd toward the "Mess" Hall and
pushed my way in like the rest. Mr.
Xmas wasn't around, so I enjoyed my
meal immensely. I tried to get in a
few words with Dean Mount, but
couldn't raise my voice above the noise
of the soupeaters. One fellow next to
me stripped out two teeth shifting
gears on a pork chop. That evening
I spent a very enjoyable time in the
movies. I forgot the name of the pic-
ture, because I was lullabyed to sleep
by the soft and melodious voices of
a group of the boys singing "In A
Little Spanish Town" (where everyone
wished they were) .
Shortly afterward I returned to the dorms and was soon sound asleep in mv regula-
tion five and one-half foot bed. Thus ended my first day at Maryland.

OH! HOW THEY RUSH— AND RUSH
Editor's Note: A certain freshman showed us parts of her diary one day and asked
if they did not give true pictures of the sororities during rush season. Finally, she
consented to let us publish them.
September 14: Dear Diary, I'm filled with thoughts of school these days. Today I went
to my first rush party, an Alpha Upsilon Chi tea, and met my future schoolmates.
They told me about lots of nice boys they knew there.
September ij: I went to the Kappa Xi tea today — guess they will want me to join
their sorority 'cause they treated me royally.
September i<): When I walked in the Ag Building today, I wondered if fate had landed
me in a boys' school, until I was attracted by a strain of sweet music, "Show Me the
Way to Go Home," sung by Dorothy White in her clarion-like voice. All signs of
lonesomeness vanished.
September 25; Just a few minutes ago I was at Gerneaux Hall at the Panhell (what a
funny word) tea. I met a girl named Edith Burnside — when I went in the next
room, she was in there. I thought she had dashed to get some girl out of an
enemy's hands, but when I went back to the parlor, she was still there. They're
twins. I still feel a little dizzy.
September 28: Had luncheon at the Sigma Delta house today. The menu consisted
of fried weenies, water, and napkins. I supose they never serve Emily Herzog and
a good meal together, because Emily's winning personality is so attractive one loses
sight of the food.
October 15: The Sigma Delta gave a Japanese party this afternoon; when I went inside
the house, I found a line of little Japs waiting. I said hello. They didn't answer,
so I guess they didn't speak English. I wonder where the Sigma Deltas got their
house? They have girls of all ages. There was one little girl there who rolls her
eyes and talks like a fifteen-year old. Some of them were awfully dignified though;
I guess they were faculty members.
October ly: I went to the A O Pi's rose party. Some of the girls wore costumes and
danced. I hear that you have to be rich to belong to a national, but the A O. Pis
don't look it. Anyway, they aren't all graceful dancers.
October 26: I had an interview with some Kappa Xis today. I know all about their
future national.
October 2S: The Sigma Deltas gave us a rush dinner dance tonight. A lot of Phi Sigs
were there, and every one I danced with asked me for a date.
October 50: Three function in one day! Kappa Xi formal breakfast and tea in the
afternoon followed by a little private questionaire; and the A O Pi formal dinner
in the evening; the A O Pi's sang some sentimental songs and cried until I almost
cried too — about the singing, I mean. They didn't say anything about giving me
a bid, so I guess I'll have to ask Martha Ross.
October 3 r: Silence period! First day I've had to buy my lunch.
November i: Deary Diary, I've received bids from every one of the sororities. What
shall I do? My friend Betty Brunner would probably advise me to take them all,
but I just think I'll turn them all down — and some day start a sorority of my own.

WORSE AND WORSER
My Stars!
Maryland's famed Astronomer, Dr. Taliaferro S. G." (pronounced Tollhcr if you
should ask him) may know where Venus is at eleven-thirty Saturday night, but he never
knows where his football stars are any night. '-'Star Gazer.
Hold Your Seats Girls!
Maryland's famous fashion plate, Count Kanesky (we've lost the key to the pro-
nunciation) recently emulated the Prince of Wales when he fell from Miss Raczer's pet
nag. The horse was not injured.
A Tough Egg!
Maryland's bad man, KING (Spike) WARD, hangs on back of ice wagons and peeps
up dark alleys; every now and then he says darn! Boy, page Gene Tunney!
Another Good Girl Gone Wrong!
Maryland's perfect tintype photo. Miss Johnson (at your service), has just signed a
cinema contract with Famous Players. Her first attempt will be "Custard's Last Stand."
She will be one of the Buftalos.
Something Big!
Maryland's weight lifter and acrobat par excellence. Prof. Lemon, has been dili-
gently engaged in keeping down to weight. Tennis is his chief exercise. (Oh! What a
racket.)
The Bunion Hop (1928)!
Maryland's duplicate of Napoleon's famous retreat from Russia was pulled off amid
glorious surroundings. Although exhausted marchers fell by the wayside in scores, the
Grand March at the Junior Prom was not called off until shoeleather began to smoke
and Bluejay plasters were selling by the carton.
And What Is So Rare As:
Pres. Pearson driving the coal truck,
"Dutch" Zulick doing aesthetic dancing,
"Knocky" Thomas eating with one hand,
or Mit Collins pinch-hitting for friend Valentino!
