Realizing  the  fact  that  our  Two- Year  Course  is 
still  in  its  infancy  and  that  we,  the  Pioneer  Class,  in 
our  activities  will  have  considerable  bearing  on  the 
welfare  and  future  of  the  classes  to  follow,  it  is  our 
desire  to  leave  for  the  coming  classes  a  high  standard 
of  action,  both  in  the  class  room  and  among  our  asso- 
ciates on  the  campus.  Tradition  and  custom  are  a 
determining  -factor  in  promoting  fellowship  and  loy- 
alty. Not  only  must  this  loyalty  be  evident  while 
we  are  in  college;  we  must  make  it  felt  when  we  go 
out  into  our  life  work.  We  feel  that  the  establish- 
ment of  this  annual  publication  will  help  bind  us 
together,  and  especially  will  it  tend  to  make  us  loyal 
to  our  college,  and  our  Two- Year  Course,  when  we 
are  alumni.

The  members  of  the  Class  of  1921,  the  first  large  class  to  be  graduated  from 
the  Two-Year  Course,  have  lived  through  the  pioneer  days  of  the  organization 
of  the  course.  They  are  familiar  with  the  proljlems  arising  in  connection  with 
its  growth  and  development,  and  this  history  can  be  for  them  but  a  record  of 
past  experience.  It  is,  however,  a  real  pleasure  to  express  at  this  time  sincere 
appreciation  of  the  spirit  of  loyalty  and  co-operation  that  has  been  shown  by 
the  members  of  this  class,  and  to  acknowledge  that  whatever  progress  may  have 
been  made  is  due  in  no  small  measure  to  the  good  sense  and  good  will  of  this 
group  of  men  and  women. 

The  position  of  Director  of  Short  Courses  was  created  in  September,  1917, 
with  a  view  to  the  further  development  of  this  type  of  service  rendered  by  the 
college  to  the  state.  At  that  time  plans  for  the  further  development  of  short 
courses  were  under  consideration.  One  of  these  plans  involved  action  on  the 
resolution  that  had  been  passed  in  May,  1917,  by  both  houses  of  the  legislature 
of  the  Commonwealth  (Senate  No.  374)  relative  to  the  establishment  of  a  Two- 
Year  Course.  At  a  meeting  of  the  trustees  held  soon  afterward  it  was  voted 
that  the  resolution  of  the  legislature  should  be  carried  out  in  letter  and  in  spirit. 
The  resolution  adopted  in  concurrence  is  as  follows: 

"Resolved,  That  in  the  opinion  of  the  general  court  there  should  be  estab- 
lished at  the  Massachusetts  Agricultural  College  a  two  years'  course  in  practical 
agriculture  upon  the  completion  of  which  certificates  of  graduation  should  be 
granted,  that  the  course  should  be  opened  to  all  residents  of  the  commonwealth 
who  have  attained  the  age  of  seventeen  years  and  who  possess  the  educa- 
tional qualifications  necessary  for  admission  to  any  public  high  school  of  the 
commonwealth." 

That  the  legislative  resolution  voiced  a  real  demand  for  the  organization 
of  such  a  course  in  this  state  is  shown  by  the  increase  in  enrollment  during  the 
past  three  years  in  this  course.

Though  the  attendance  was  small  the  first  year,  on  account  of  the  Federal 
draft,  and  unusually  large  the  second  year,  owing  to  the  fact  that  disabled  men 
were  sent  to  the  college  by  the  Federal  Board  for  Vocational  Education,  the 
demand  for  this  course  in  this  state  is  shown  by  the  fact  that  one  hundred  Fresh- 
men, exclusive  of  Federal  men,  were  enrolled  in  September,  1920.  The  organi- 
zation of  such  courses  in  agricultural  colleges  is  not  a  new  departure  in  the  serv- 
ice these  institutions  are  rendering  in  the  several  states.  Thirty-six  of  the  forty- 
eight  agricultural  colleges  offer  one  or  two  year  short  courses,  and  among  these 
colleges  are  numbered  some  of  the  most  powerful  agricultural  educational  institu- 
tions. Short  courses  are  another  means  of  carrying  out  the. spirit  of  democracy  in 
education  that  inspired  the  Morrill  Act. 

The  first  term  of  the  Two-Year  Course  was  offered  in  December,  1917,  and 

11 


closed  in  March,  1918.  On  account  of  the  labor  conditions  due  to  the  war  emer- 
gency it  was  deemed  inadvisable  to  attempt  more  than  a  four  months'  course. 
During  that  winter,  the  course  was  organized  on  the  two-year  basis — the  first 
year  consisting  of  six  months'  study  at  the  college,  plus  six  months  of  farm  prac- 
tice: the  second  year  to  consist  of  nine  months'  resident  study.  The  experience 
of  the  past  three  years  has  shown  that  the  course  must  provide  education  in 
certain  fundamental  subjects  for  all  students,  and  offer  at  the  same  time  provi- 
sion for  a  student  to  specialize  in  the  particular  lines  of  work  in  which  he  is  inter- 
ested. At  this  writing  the  course  is  being  reorganized  to  make  greater  special- 
ization possible. 

The  objective  of  short  course  work  is  very  clearly  defined.  It  is  to  provide 
such  practical  instruction  and  training  as  will  fit  men  and  women  for  Massaichu- 
setts  farms  and  Massachusetts  farm  life.  The  development  of  agriculture  in 
Massachusetts  necessitates  the  training  of  larger  numbers  of  men  and  women 
who  will  have  had  such  instruction  as  will  enable  them  to  make  the  farms  pro- 
duce more  and  pay  better,  and  to  realize  the  opportunities  offered  by  agriculture 
in  the  state.  Many  groups  of  men  and  women  demand  this  kind  of  instruction. 
They  vary  from  those  who  have  finished  the  eighth  grade  to  the  college  graduate, 
but  the  majority  of  short  course  students  come  with  a  background  of  practical 
farm  experience  and  a  certain  maturity  of  thought  and  judgment  arising  out  of 
life  experience. 

No  course  would,  however,  serve  the  needs  of  young  men  and  women  which 
did  not  recognize  fully  the  fact  that  the  chief  characteristic  of  farming  is  that  it 
is  both  a  life  and  a  living.  From  the  beginning,  it  has  been  part  of  the  policy 
in  the  development  of  this  course  to  create  social  and  recreational  advantages. 
The  first  step  was  the  engagement  of  a  coach,  "Em."  Grayson,  who  has  built  up 
baseball,  basketball,  football,  track,  etc.  The  fraternal  life  of  the  student  body 
has  been  supported  by  class  and  other  organizations.  Thus  far  three  clubs  have 
been  organized — the  Kolony  Klub,  the  A.  T.  G.  Club,  and  the  W.  T.  E.  Club. 
A  beginning  has  been  made  this  year  in  the  development  of  dramatics.  It  may 
be  well  to  state  here  a  few  of  the  general  policies  of  administration:  (1)  Sepa- 
rate classes  are  maintained  for  the  two-year  students  in  order  that  the  instruc- 
tion may  be  adapted  to  the  group  and  the  fundamental  principles  of  the  courses 
be  maintained.  (2)  The  course  is  distinctly  vocational  in  its  nature  and  as 
intensive  and  practical  as  time  and  money  permit.  (3)'  It  is  maintained  by  a 
separate  budget,  granted  by  the  legislature,  and  is  not  a  charge  on  the  general 
college.  Funds  are  provided  for  both  instruction  and  maintenance.  (4)  In 
the  employment  of  instructors,  it  has  been  the  policy  to  secure  men  of  college 
grade.  These  do  not  form  a  separate  staff,  but  teach  all  classes  and  groups  of 
students  in  the  institution.  (5)  A  large  measure  of  personal  responsibility  is 
laid  upon  the  student  body.  The  student  body  is  represented  by  the  Two-Year 
Student  Council,  an  organization  which  has  rendered  excellent  service  in  the 
development  of  men  and  morale.  The  Two- Year  Course  has  now  passed  the 
experimental  stage.  It  seems  destined  to  have  a  powerful  influence  on  the 
agricultural  interests  of  this  Commonwealth.

Ilisitorp  of  tfje  Cla^s^  of  1921 

On  September  27,  1919,  the  Two- Year  Class  of  1921,  the  f  rst  class  to  com- 
plete a  full  Two-Year  Course  at  Massachusetts  Agricultural  College,  made  its 
appearance  upon  this  campus.  The  class  numbered  one  hundred  and  ninety- 
six  members,  of  whom  eighty-six  were  ex-service  men,  sent  here  by  the  Federal 
Board  for  Vocational  Education,  and  eight  were  women  students,  commonly 
called  "Co-eds."  We  far  outnumbered  the  senior  class,  and  as  they  had  no  rules 
with  which  to  govern  us,  we  proceeded  to  govern  ourselves  as  best  we  could 
until  some  satisfactory  form  of  student  government  should  be  established. 

As  the  first  large  class  of  its  kind,  we  found  ourselves  confronted  with 
numerous  obstacles  and  difficult  problems  in  which  there  were  no  precedents  to 
guide  us.  We  very  naturally  felt  that  our  actions  and  decisions  would  have  a 
lasting  influence  that  would  be  felt  by  future  classes,  and,  with  that  in  mind, 
we  organized  the  class  and  elected  officers  in  order  that  we  might  better  direct 
our  progress  toward  the  firmer  establishment  of  the  Two- Year  Course.  The 
first  permanent  class  officers,  who  were  elected  in  December,  and  guided  us  so 
ably,  were;  Gordon  P.  Loomer,  President;  Mary  E.  Bruce,  Vice-President; 
Zorayda  K.  Owens,  Secretary;   Stevens  F.  Dole,  Treasurer. 

During  the  fall  of  1919  a  football  team  was  organized,  and,  although  some 
difficulty  was  experienced  in  obtaining  games,  a  fine  start  was  made,  with  pros- 
pects of  a  brilliant  future.  In  the  winter  term  a  basketball  team  was  developed, 
but  did  not  have  a  very  successful  season  if  scores  alone  are  considered,  due 
largely  to  the  raw  material  with  which  the  coach  had  to  work. 

On  November  15,  1919,  a  temporary  Student  Council,  appointed  by  Presi- 
dent Butterfield,  held  its  first  meeting.  Members  of  1921  have  served  faithfully 
on  the  permanent  organization  which  grew  out  of  this  meeting,  and  largely 
through  their  efforts  the  Council  has  developed  into  a  stable  and  influential  gov- 
erning body.  We  feel  that  the  first  year  of  our  course  was  a  profitable  one, 
and  that  when  we  left  in  March,  we  left  a  record  of  accomplishment  behind  us. 

We  returned  to  the  campus  in  September,  1920,  after  an  absence  of  six 
months,  somewhat  depleted  in  numbers,  and  found  a  Junior  Two- Year  Class, 
fully  as  large  as  ourselves,  waiting  for  us  to  train  it  in  the  way  it  should  go.  In 
this  regard,  we  are  well  satisfied  with  our  efforts,  and  although  a  little  cold  water 
was  required  to  dampen  the  superfluous  ardor  of  certain  Freshmen,  we  certainly 

27 


are  proud  of  our  Junior  Class,  which  we  are  depending  upon  to  take  up  our  work 
where  we  lay  it  down.  Mr.  Loomer,  our  president,  did  not  return  to  college, 
and  it  is  well  to  mention  here  the  work  of  Miss  Mary  Bruce,  our  vice-president, 
who  served  so  ably  in  his  stead  during  the  first  term  of  the  current  year.  At 
the  January  meeting,  new  class  officers,  as  follows,  were  elected:  President, 
Carl  E.  Libby;  vice-president,  Gordon  E.  Steele;  secretary,  Norman  F.  Mac- 
Leod;  treasurer,  Stevens  F.  Dole;   sergeant-at-arms,  Walter  R.  Trafton. 

Feeling  that  we  wanted  something  worth  while  at  Commencement,  when  we 
leave  Massachusetts  Agricultural  College,  after  two  happy  years,  to  enter  our 
life  work,  a  committee  was  chosen,  the  results  of  whose  endeavors  are  published 
elsewhere  in  this  volume.  In  taking  this  step  we  feel  that  we  are  establishing  a 
precedent  to  be  adopted  by  future  classes,  and  to  which  we  can  look  back  with 
justifiable  pride. 

The  Two- Year  Class  of  1921  has  to  the  best  of  its  ability  upheld  and  fos- 
tered the  traditions  of  this  college.  It  entered  here  not  knowing  what  problems 
and  difficulties  might  confront  it.  It  leaves  here  with  a  clean  record,  one 
which  is  a  credit  to  the  college  and  a  credit  to  the  men  and  women  who  helped  to 
make  it.  .  .

A  cheerful  man,  worth  knowing.  Prominent  in  col- 
lege and  town  activities,  C.  C.  is  well  liked  wherever  he 
is  known.  If  you  receive  a  rousing  slap  on  the  back 
and  some  one  says,  "Hello,  bum,"  3'ou  can  at  once  tell 
it  is  Allen.  Just  at  present  he  is  making  Springfield 
appreciate  good  dairy  products.  He  is  trying  out  some 
of  Prof.  Judkins'  theories  on  the  people  of  that  city. 
Experiments  so  far  have  been  without  fatalities.  Chet 
has  theories  of  his  own  on  successful  and  desirable 
farming.  One  is  that  the  farmer  should  work  union 
hours  at  union  wages.  We  wish  him  all  success  and 
will  be  glad  to  work  for  him  some  day.

Coming  from  a  whaling  town,  one  might  expect 
Roger  to  be  a  whale  of  a  guy.  But  he  isn't;  he's  not 
very  big  and  he  doesn't  blow  a  bit.  Before  we  knew 
Roger  well,  we  doped  him  out  for  a  deacon,  but  time 
has  told.  He  has  never  been  seen  in  the  vicinity  of 
the  Adams  House,  but  he  has  absent-mindedly  left 
circumstantial  evidence  around  at  times.  Roger  is  a 
model  youth;  he  doesn't  smoke,  and  he  never  misses 
chapel,  even  seems  to  enjoy  the  short  nap  he  gets 
there.  His  one  bad  habit  is  betting,  and  he  is  a  con- 
sistent loser.  How  he  manages  to  keep  cheerful  in  the 
face  of  his  losses  we  don't  know.

One  of  the  hardest  working  girls  on  the  campus. 
This  ambitious  young  lady  manages  to  keep  busy  from 
morning  till  night.  We  are  sure  that  some  time  she 
will  reap  that  reward  which  is  the  recompense  of 
all  hard  work.  Maude  pitches  right  into  farming 
with  all  her  energy.  She  can  tell  you  more  about  the 
college  farm,  live  stock,  and  crops  than  half  the  men 
that  work  on  it.  She  is  quiet  and  reserved  but  mighty 
likable.  Maude  is  a  little  girl  with  a  big  heart,  an 
example  to  any  who  think  they  are  working  hard.

This  tall,  bespectacled  youth  hails  from  the  same 
town  that  Alvin  H.  Fuller  made  famous,  and  promises 
to  make  it  even  more  famous  in  the  future.  He's  very 
quiet  except  when  he  gets  warmed  up  to  his  subject, — 
and  then !  Evidently  he  intends  removing  his  residence 
from  Somerville  as  we  understand  most  of  the  farming 
land  in  that  city  is  largely  devoted  to  the  raising  of 
city  blocks.  Frank  is  alwaj'S  in  a  hurry  to  get  home 
after  finals,  and  it  is  said  that  home  possesses  more 
than  ordinary  attractions.  If  the  Slow  and  Easy 
should  stop  running  to  Boston  Frank  would  make  it 
on  his  bicycle.

Every  one  knows  Barney.  ■  Did  you  ever  know  any 
one  with  that  name  who  wasn't  popular?  One  letter 
is  left  out.  It  should  be  Blarney.  The  name,  good 
nature,  and  popularity  just  naturally  go  together. 
Barney  comes  from  Maine,  Aroostook  County,  in  fact, 
the  place  that  made  potatoes  famous.  He  is  down 
there  now  raising  a  bumper  crop,  we  have  no  doubt, 
and  is  causing  the  old  boys  to  sit  up  and  take  notice. 
Barney  says  there  is  just  one  precaution  to  be  observed 
in  successful  potato  planting,  and  that  is  not  to  get 
the  sets  in  upside  down.

A  man  of  many  attainments  is  Bal;  a  snappy  dresser, 
a  good  entertainer,  a  conscientious  student,  and  a 
peach  of  a  dancer,  in  fact,  for  most  anything  on  the 
list  Bal  fills  the  bill.  He  likes  a  good  time  and  is  strong 
for  the  chickens,  as  Mr.  Banta,  or  most  any  one  else, 
will  vouch  for.  The  conductors  on  the  Holyoke  line 
hold  the  last  car  a  half  hour  three  nights  a  week  when 
Sam  goes  visiting.  Over  in  Hanip  they  are  not  so 
accommodating,  so  Sam  walks  home  from  there. 
Bal's  ambition  is  to  supply  New  York  City  with  eggs 
and  broilers.

cer blew  in  at  "Aggie"  with  a  bang.  He  hadn't  been 
here  a  week  before  he  was  firmly  convinced  that  he 
had  a  little  edge  on  the  profs.  Be  it  cattle  or  swine, 
farm  management  or  crops,  that  is  the  topic  for  dis- 
cussion, this  boisterous  son  of  the  soil  throws  a  smooth 
line.  Last  year  Ray  joined  the  Grange  in  Amherst, 
and  since  then  he  has  been  well  known  in  the  town 
society.  At  present  "Lawnmower"  is  down  in  Rhode 
Island  raising  hogs.  Even  if  he  doesn't  make  any 
profit,  he  figures  he'll  have  the  use  of  the  hogs  for  six 
months.

"Rab's"  supreme  good  nature  and  ready  wit  have 
won  for  him  a  high  place  in  the  regard  of  his  class- 
mates. "  Rab"  jokes  on  every  day  of  the  week,  every 
hour  of  the  day,  and  we  suggest  a  visit  to  him  as  the 
very  best  treatment  for  the  blues.  He  has  made  quite 
a  reputation  as  a  liar.  We  hasten  to  add  that  this 
was  not  in  his  everyday  life,  but  was  behind  the  glare 
of  the  footlights.  "  Rab"  is,  we  will  have  to  admit,  a 
most  convincing  talker  and  can  make  you  believe  al- 
most anything  if  he  has  the  chance.  He  is  going  to 
try  his  powers  on  fruit  trees  after  leaving  here  and  we 
wish  him  success.

ne.xt  best  known  at  the  Hadley  Center  town  hall 
where  he  and  "Dutch"  are  prone  to  stray  of  an  even- 
ing to  shake  a  foot  with  the  Onion  King's  daughter. 
"Chub"  is  holding  down  the  captaincy  of  the  team,  for 
which  we  hope  a  successful  season.  Once  in  awhile 
he  goes  to  class,  but  he's  majoring  in  baseball.

"Bozzie"  is  one  of  those  likable  chaps  who  win  your 
friendship  by  saying  nothing  except  when  necessary 
and  by  always  making  themselves  agreeable.  He 
ranks  high  on  all  his  class  work,  indicating  a  conscien- 
tious scholar.  His  future  work  is  to  be  with  fruit 
trees,  an  occupation  he  enjoys  very  much,  with  one 
exception.  He  objects  very  strongly  to  pruning  a 
tree  when  some  one  above  his  head  is  scraping  bark.

Rather  a  quiet  chap,  this  man  Broqker,  probably 
because  he  prefers  to  do  things  rather  than  talk  about 
them.  "Rocky"  comes  from  the  city,  the  one  which 
claims  Boston  as  a  suburb,  Ro.xbury.  Some  one  has 
complained  of  the  distance  one  has  to  travel  in  order 
to  get  a  train  in  Amherst,  but  John  maintains  that 
that  is  nothing  compared  to  the  miles  he  has  traveled 
hunting  for  an  "l^"  train  for  Dudley  Street.  Between

Here's  the  man  with  more  excuses  for  going  home 
over  week-ends  than  we've  ever  seen.  It  started  with 
"going  to  help  dig  potatoes,  cut  ensilage,"  etc.  When 
such  as  these  gave  out,  Frank  worked  hard  to  try  to 
catch  the  mumps  from  Bill.  At  last  he  said  he  had  the 
mumps,  went  home,  and  came  back  in  time  for  finals. 
Wonder  who  she  is?  Frank  was  a  good  boy,  but,  by 
some  misfortune,  he  began  to  eat  with  the  gang  over 
the  hill.  Instead  of  reforming  them,  they  reformed  him. 
He  has  taken  up  cooking  under  Prof.  Chenoweth  this

The  big  noise  of  the  class  of  1921.  "  Burkie  "  made 
himself  heard  the  minute  he  hit  town  and  has  been 
blowing  his  horn  ever  since.  Prof.  Hart  can  testify 
quite  satisfactorily  as  to  the  strength  of  Burke's  vocal 
cords  and  his  conversational  ability.  Prof,  even 
rnaintains  that  Burke  would  make  a  good  lawj'er,  pro- 
vided he  had  arguments  which  were  in  as  good  condition 
as  his  voice.  A  hard  worker  for  all  that  and  one  who 
has  accomplished  much  during;  his  sojourn  here.  We 
surely  hope,  however,  that  his  voice  will  never  fail

"Bunnie"  is  one  of  our  best  athletes,  starring  in 
football,  basketball,  and  as  a  waiter  in  the  "Hash-

for  it's  the  fellows  who  sit  at  the  table.  "Bunnie"  is 
none  other  than  that  foghorn  you  hear  on  Sunday  when 
you  are  near  the  Unity  Church.  As  a  member  of  the 
Student  Council  he  worked  well  for  the  Two  Year

"Cupid"  is  our  baby  boy  and  we  are  very  choice  of 
him.  He  came  to  us  in  short  pants  and  stayed  by 
that  fashion  throughout  his  Junior  year.  Imagine  our 
surprise  when  on  returning  this  year  we  found  him  in 
long  trousers  and  nearly  a  foot  taller!  "Cupe"  enjoys 
himself  most  if  he  can  find  some  one  to  tease,  and  de- 
lights in  making  himself  a  nuisance.  He  is  a  smart 
kid,  however,  and  when  he  grows  up  will  make  quite  a 
man.  He  claims  he  is  grown  up  now,  but  actions 
speak  louder  than  words.  However,  we  e.xpect  to  soon 
be  able  to  park  the  baby  carriage.

The  nickname  is  certainly  appropriate.  Cady  is  our 
prize  fat  boy.  But  weight  is  not  the  only  place  where 
"Fat"  leads,  he  is  a  champion  bluffer.  If  he  could  get 
away  with  it  he  would  be  wonderful,  but,  alas!  he 
doesn't.  Howard  bought  a  motorcycle,  thinking  that 
a  sure  way  to  reduce.  At  last  reports  he  had  reduced 
the  motorcycle  to  junk,  but  he  had  actually  increased. 
His  favorite  sports  are  fishing  and  cheering.  He's  a 
royal  rooter  for  the  team.  As  for  fishing,  it's  the  an-

a  big  police  dog  with  whom  we  should  dislike  to  get 
into  an  argument.  Emily  has  some  code  arranged 
with  the  dog,  for  often  you  may  hear  her  say,  "Moosh," 
and  he  does,  so  she  will  tell  you.  She  just  dotes  on 
fussing  with  machinery,  particularly  anything  very 
greasy.  As  a  student  of  animal  husbandry  she  can 
hold  her  own  with  any  of  the  best  of  them.

she  can't  be  bribed.  "  Pearl"  has  been  very  popular,

going  to  French  Hall.  She  spends  most  of  her  time 
there  in  class  room  or  greenhouse.  When  she  gradu- 
ates, she  is  going  to  start  something  along  lloricultural 
lines.  Ruth  says  they've  made  flowers  grow  in  win- 
ter by  artificial  heat,  and  now  she  is  going  to  devise  a 
way  of  making  them  grow  without  any  work.  She 
comes  from  Hudson,  a  pretty  little  town,  thriving  in 
spite  of  the  fact  that  it  is  on  the  "Slow  and  Easy"  line 
to  Boston.  We  hope  the  world  will  treat  Ruth  as 
nicely  as  she  treats  us.

"Chris"  is  one  of  those  really  bright  young  men. 
He  never  was  known  to  rank  below  80  and  puts  up  an 
awful  howl  when  he  goes  as  low  as  that.  "Chris"  is 
the  personification  of  cheerfulness,  except  for  two  days 
in  the  week,  when  he  sometimes  looks  worried.  It  is 
said  that  the  absence  of  so  small  a  thing  as  a  pink  enve- 
lope, addressed  in  a  feminine  hand  and  postmarked 
"Brockton,"  is  the  cause  of  his  worried  expression. 
We  are  surprised,  as  a  glimpse  at  the  date  above  will

Some  one  told  us  to  ask  "Chet"  how  he  likes  sleeping

gone  now.  What  "Hart"  doesn't  know  about  floricul- 
ture isn't  worth  knowing,  at  least  that's  what  he  says. 
It  is  said  that  Mr.  Whiting  doesn't  agree  with  him. 
Colton  hails  from  Springfield,  and  actually  seems  will- 
ing for  people  to  know  it.  Our  hero  is  having  a  hard

have  been  a  newspaper  reporter  or  an  artist;  he's  good 
at  filling  a  notebooli  with  sketches  instead  of  lectures. 
He  has  a  reputation  as  an  actor,  both  in  school  and  in

In  other  words  "Rog"  was  elected  to  the  Student  Coun-

did  much  to  start  the  class  of  1921  on  its  way  to  a  ver\-

could  picture  "Rog"  in  other  than  his  usual  spick  and

are  sorry  she  couldn't  have  come  all  the  way  through 
our  two  years  with  us,  but  are  any  way  glad  she  dropped 
in  on  us  our  senior  year.  She  is  a  jolly  "scout,"  and 
full  of  pep  despite  the  fact  that  she  originally  hailed 
from  the  sunny,  lazy  South.  Her  flights  in  the  realms 
of  flowers  and  food,  both  of  which  come  under  her

The  unobtrusive  manner  and  quiet  reserve  of  this 
classmate  of  ours  have  prevented  us  from  becoming 
as  well  acquainted  with  him  as  we  should  desire.  He 
is  seldom  seen  at  large  except  on  his  way  to  classes. 
"Dan"  assists  Doc  Lentz  in  keeping  his  classes  awale 
by  snoring  so  loudly  that  no  one  else  can  get  a  chance 
to  sleep,  one  of  the  disadvantages  of  a  quiet  nature,  we 
should  say.

Football  (1,  2);  Basketball  (1,  2);  Track  (2);  Base- 
ball (2). 

A  bunch  of  muscle,  strung  on  a  live  wire,  is  a  good 
description  of  "Jerry."  "Jerry"  never  had  seen  a  foot- 
ball or  a  basketball  when  he  landed  in  Amherst,  so  natu- 
rally they  attracted  him.  And  what  a  player  he  has 
made!  Besides  his  natural  ability  "Jerry"  possesses  that 
characteristic  so  essential  in  a  good  athlete,  namely, 
good  nature.  In  the  class  room  and  on  the  campus 
"Jerry"  has  never  been  found  wanting.  Always  with  a 
ready  answer  and  ever  willing  to  help  out,  he  has  made 
himself  one  of  the  most  popular  men  in  the  class.  A 
real  man.     Good  luck  to  him!

"Louie"  believes  in  being  frank.  He  would  sooner 
speak  his  mind  and  have  it  over  with  than  to  try  to 
smooth  a  matter  over.  As  a  member  of  the  baseball 
team,  both  junior  and  senior  years,  "Louie"  has  cer- 
tainly done  his  bit  for  the  class  of  1921.  A  remarkable 
voice  has  he;  reminds  one — well,  it's  about  halfway 
between  a  croak  and  a  chuckle,  and  we  give  him  the 
benefit  of  the  doubt  as  being  nearer  a  chuckle,  for  that 
is  more  in  keeping  with  his  nature.  He  is  always 
happy,  even  during  finals.

"Artie"

"Artie"  made  his  entrance  upon  this  campus  very 
quietly  and  has  moved  about  it  quietly  ever  since. 
However,  he  "gets  there"  just  the  same.  When  he 
speaks  he  says  something,  a  valuable  attribute.  "Ar- 
tie" is  working  hard  on  the  baseball  team  and  has  de- 
veloped into  one  of  the  team's  mainstays  in  the  bo.v. 
He  is  noted  for  knowing  his  own  mind  and  is  not  afraid 
to  give  e.xpression  to  his  convictions.  "Grif"  is  bound 
to  be  successful,  as  he  makes  a  practice  of  always  doing 
his  best.

Why  this  versatile  young  lady  took  up  Agriculture 
we  do  not  know.  It  is  our  opinion  that  she  would 
have  made  an  excellent  movie  actress.  She  used  to 
drive  a  "Flivver,"  but  of  late  the  chariot  has  disap- 
peared, reason  unknown.  We  suspect,  however,  that 
she  tried  some  well-known  movie  stunt  to  which  the 
long-suffering  descendant  of  Henry  I.  would  not  sub- 
mit. As  a  hiker  she  has  no  peer,  it  being  said  that 
she  was,  in  former  years,  a  commuter  from  Milton 
and  found  that  she  could  walk  into  town  considerably 
faster  than  the  elevated  could  convey  her.

One  of  our  quiet,  earnest  class-room  wizards.  Grant 
is  always  on  the  exemption  list.  He  is  quite  a  cattle 
man,  too.  "Ham"  is  right  there  when  it  comes  to 
show-ring  judgments.  Also,  he's  a  Guernsey  man.  He 
has  no  use  for  a  cow  that  gives  chalk  and  water,  even 
if  she  does  give  a  pailful  of  it.  Down  in  Rowe  Grant 
says  everything  is  quiet  in  spite  of  the  name,  as  they 
never  raise  one.  On  the  stage  "G.  E."  has  displayed 
considerable  hitherto  latent  ability.

Our  handsome  boy.  "Hank"  is  always  dressed  up, 
his  shoes  are  always  shined,  his  hair  is  always  combed. 
We  sometimes  wonder  if  "Hank"  will  crease  his  over- 
alls and  polish  his  rubber  boots  when  he  gets  down  on 
the  farm.  He  spent  his  boyhood  raising  clams  down 
on  Martha's  Vineyard;  they  say  the  soil's  just  right  for 
them  down  there.  "Rus's"  chief  specialty  is  getting 
his  sleep  in  class  and  then  staying  up  all  night  trying 
to  master  what  he  might  have  got  in  class  if  he  only 
would  stay  awake.  He  has  rendered  good  service  to 
the  class  as  a  member  of  the  football,  basketball,  and 
baseball  squads  and  has  been  very  active  in  all  social 
affairs.

Quite  a  superior  looking  youth  is  tliis  young  man. 
He  wears  an  air  of  self-satisfaction,  which  is  always 
accompanied  by  a  faultlessly  neat  appearance.  "Bill" 
is  an  expert  at  raising  crops  and  hopes  to  raise  very 
large  crops  of  corn  and  alfalfa  when  he  gets  on  to  the 
farm.  What!  Did  some  one  say  that  you  can't 
raise  alfalfa  in  Massachusetts?  Well,  we'll  say  you 
can;  just  take  a  look  at  "Bill's"  upper  lip.  If  "Bill" 
e\'er  takes  to  raising  crops  he'll  soak  the  seed  in  gaso- 
line and  irrigate  with  ether  to  help  it  along.

This  red-headed  youth,  who  comes  from  back  in  the 
woods,  somewhere  in  Massachusetts,  is  extremely 
modest.  He  never  speaks  unless  he  is  spoken  to,  cer- 
tainly a  most  commendable  virtue.  Otherwise,  "Bob" 
is  perfectly  normal ;  he  seldom  places  the  classes  of  live 
stock  right  in  Animal  Judging,  and  agrees  with  the  rest 
of  the  bunch  that  the  last  should  be  first  and  the  first 
should  be  last.  He  is  an  expert  at  packing  spray  pumps 
so  that  they  won't  work  and  all  in  all  is  sure  of  a  place 
in  the  sun  along  with  the  rest  of  his  faultless  classmates. 
"Bob"  is  thought  to  be  rather  easy  going,  but  it  is  be- 
cause he  doesn't  make  a  great  fuss  when  he  accom- 
plishes a  piece  of  work.

This  lad  was  runner-up  for  first  honors  in  the  elec- 
tion for  Class  Grind.  Seldom  seen  on  the  streets  ex- 
cept on  the  way  to  or  from  classes,  we  are  not  surprised 
that  Wilder  is  such  a  shark  in  the  class  room.  Some- 
times "we  guys,"  who  never  crack  a  book,  almost  envy 
him.  Home  is  near  for  Wilder  until  the  mud  season 
comes,  and  he  misses  a  car.  He  can  tell  you  the  exact

dently feels  obliged  to  work  it  to  the  limit.  When  he 
isn't  in  class,  and  sometimes  when  he's  supposed  to  be 
there,  he  is  "absent,  but  accounted  for,"  on  the  front 
line  at  Smith.  "Pat"  enjoys  raising  flowers,  at  least 
enough  to  supply  his  personal  needs.  At  present  Mr. 
Hayden  is  gardening  near  Boston,  where  we  are  sure 
his  quiet,  pleasant  nature  will  stand  him  in  good  stead.

A  rather  wild  but  wholly  earnest  youth  landed  at 
M.  A.  C.  in  September,  1919.  By  hard  work  on  the 
part  of  Mr.  Holden,  "Heinie"  acquired  a  conception 
of  what  a  good  animal  really  looks  like,  so  that  when 
in  March  he  returned  to  the  farm,  Molly,  the  brindled 
cow,  and  Dan  and  Jim,  the  team,  worked  themselves 
to  shadows  trying  to  meet  the  new  standard.  At  any 
time  now  'Ban"  will  show  you  pictures  of  his  county 
fair  blue  winners.  It  is  rumored  that  "Hylife"  will 
graduate  despite  the  time  he  gives  to  his  pin-boy  duties 
and  seeing  the  country  from  a  bicycle.

We'll  bet  old  Punkinville  steps  around  and  opens  its 
sleepy  eyes  some  when  "Old  Man  Hoyt's  Son"  arrives 
for  a  spell.  No  wonder  Henry  is  getting  lazy  with 
this  young  whirlwind  to  do  all  his  work  for  him.  Per- 
ley  does  make  a  fine  janitor;  he  has  missed  his  calling. 
"Poiley"  is  a  good  student,  a  hard  worker  for  the  class, 
ever  ready  to  do  anything  he  can,  and  seems  always  to 
retain  his  pleasant  nature,  cheery  smile,  and  request

"Bob"  is  like  New  England  weather.  Today  he  is

tends to  soon  electrify  the  agricultural  world  with 
some  remarkable,  noteworthy  discovery.  According 
to  reports,  "Bob"  is  quite  a  consistent  letter  writer.

Why  he  is  called  "Red"  is  not  clearly  apparent. 
Maybe  he  was  out  in  the  rain  without  a  hat  on.  John 
is  a  pleasant  young  man  who  is  met  at  North  Station 

every  time  he  arrives  by  a  pleasant  young His 

sister?  Well,  somebody's,  maybe.  He  is  a  shark  in 
the  dairy  department,  with  a  great  thirst  for  knowl- 
edge. He  certainly  has  more  opportunity  to  quench 
that  thirst  in  the  dairy  department  than  he  would 
have  in  any  other,  the  agronomy  department,  for  in- 
stance.

When  this  young  harum-scarum  was  first  dropped 
off  at  Williamstown,  the  natives  stopped  and  stared  in 
amazement.  As  the  story  goes  they  continue  to  stare 
whenever  "Oak"  appears  upon  the  scene,  for  they 
never  know  when  and  what  to  e.\pect  next.  To  be  the 
proud  owner  of  a  herd  of  prize-winning  (Uiernseys  is 
his  fondest  ambition,  and  whenever  one  speaks  of  those 
noted  bossies  from  the  Channel  Islands,  "Oak's"  ears 
can  always  be  seen  to  ]iv\ck  up.  A  man  of  strong  mind 
and  not  afraid  to  voice  his  sentiments.

When  it  comes  to  wrestling,  boxing,  or'trading  sec-

of  the  first  magnitude.  His  eye  for  business  is  ever 
alert  and  it  takes  a  good  man  to  trim  him  in  a  bargain. 
Many  are  they  who  have  gone  away  chuckling,  feeling 
overjoyed  at  putting  one  over  on  "Pete,"  only  to  come, 
in  tli'e  due  course  of  time,  to  the  realization  that  the 
chuckle  had  come  a  bit  too  soon.  Raynham  is  going 
to  see  some  good  stock  when  "Pete"  returns  to  his

A  strong  love  for  farm  animals  and  a  desire  to  know 
more  about  them  brought  "Mat"  to  M.  A.  C.  .'\nimal 
Husbandry  is  his  hobby  and  during  his  stay  here  he 
has  pursued  it  zealously.  Though  he  occasionally  be- 
comes reckless  enough  to  take  in  a  dance,  he  never 
loses  sight  of  the  Shropshires  or  Holsteins.  "Mat," 
by  the  way,  lugged  off  first  prize  in  the  recent  student 
sheep  judging  contest.  Quiet  and  reserved,  "Mat" 
is  a  man  worth  knowing,  when  you  get  through  the

During  "Kim's"  first  winter  at  Aggie  "Old  Man

having  a  perfect  attendance  at  Adams  Hall.  A  modest 
young  man  is  "Kim,"  but  when  it  comes  to  entertain- 
ing co-eds,  he's  a  wizard.  When  "Kim"  settles  down

Not  satisfied  with  just  attending  church  regularly,

could  go  more  often.  The  "General's"  future  plans 
are  unknown  to  us, —  and  to  him.'  He  will  never  make 
a  live  stock  breeder,  for  it's  impossible  to  get  him  to 
accept  the  theory  of  evolution.  Any  one  who  believes 
in  that  comes  prettj'  close  to  being  an  atheist,  in  Henry's 
opinion.  There  is  one  crop  that  Henry  will  always  be 
able  to  raise,  with  a  high  crop  index,  too.  That  is  a 
crop  of  questions.  He  may  tale  to  raising  Herefords

South  Africa  held  no  bewitching  fascination  for 
"Helen,"  so  he  hied  himself  to  Massachusetts  and 
enrolled  at  M.  A.  C.  When  the  call  for  football  can-

report.  For  two  seasons  he  helped  to  checlc  the  driv- 
ing, smashing  onslaughts  of  the  first  team's  backs. 
"Helen"  is  really  quite  clever  when  it  comes  to  playing 
with  a  hammer  and  saw,  while  the  purr  of  a  gasoline 
motor  is  music  to  his  ears.  "Helen"  may  never  be  a 
success  as  a  missionary,  but  there  is  some  chance  for

" — And  it  don't  feel  very  darn  good  now,  either." 
This  is  an  echo  of  "Red's"  story  of  how  he  got  hurt 
this  time.  Always  falling  ofi  his  bike,  or  getting  hit 
by  somebody's  else  vehicle.  "Red"  wasn't  satisfied 
with  a  bicycle.  He  has  just  secured  a  motorcycle. 
Not  having  received  his  license  yet,  he  practices  riding 
it  around  on  rainy  days  when  the  police  department 
is  at  home.  The  force  has  lost  one  of  his  rubbers 
and  can't  find  a  mate  among  the  old  ones.  "Red"

We  don't  know  when  he  sleeps,  for  he  accomplishes  an 
enormous  amount  of  work.  "Mac"  has  done  a  great 
deal  for  1921.  A  dark  horse  our  first  year,  he  was  un- 
discovered until  this  year,  when  his  talents  came  to 
light.  His  greatest  service  has  been  the  making  of 
this 'book  a  success.  A  good  student,  popular  with 
every  one,  co-eds  included,  we  are  sure  "Mac"  will  be 
a  success  in  life.

"Mike" 

Stannard,  Vt.  103  Butterfield  Terrace 

1895;   Dairy. 

"Mike"  believes  in  the  survival  of  the  fittest.  The 
thing  he  does  best  and  most  rapidly  is  at  Table  15, 
Draper  Dining  Hall.  This  lad  is  a  chronic  kicker 
supposedly,  but  when  you  become  acquainted  with 
him  there  is  easily  found  a  deal  of  good  nature.  As  a 
judge  of  show-ring  cattle,  some  one  has  said  "Mike" 
will  make  a  good  blacksmith.  He  says  he  places  the 
last  cow  first  so  that  her  feelings  won't  be  hurt.

This  strawberry  blonde  came  all  the  way  from 
"Cinci"  to  try  to  pull  the  wool  over  our  eyes.  He 
did,  but  the  wool  is  transparent,  and  we  can  see  his 
game.  Judging  from  his  major,  "Red"  is  going  back 
West  and  do  some  horseless  farming.  "Mac"  always 
has.  a  good  word  for  the  other  fellow.  If  he  didn't 
acquire  anything  else  here,  "Red"  acquired  his  life 
partner  at  "Aggie."

Undoubtedly  the  only  reason  we  did  not  nickname 
this  young  gentleman  "Rube"  is  because  we  did  not 
know  his  middle  name.  "Banty"  is  just  what  the 
names  implies,  small  and  full  of  pep.  He  is  about  the 
best  farmer  in  the  class  and  has  spent  much  of  his 
spare  time  during  the  past  two  years  trying  to  teach 
the  farmers  of  North  Amherst  how  it  ought  to  be  done. 
He  possesses  vocal  cords  which  are  a  great  asset  and 
has  helped  to  keep  the  musical  program  at  the  Unity 
Church  on  its  present  high  plane  of  excellence.

"Buck"  is  a  poultry  man,  first,  last,  and  always. 
He  has  spent  many  a  laborious  hour  trying  to  figure 
out  how  to  hatch  chicks  from  roosters'  eggs.  "Buck" 
parts  his  hair  in  the  middle  and  is  always  dressed  up, 
even  when  he's  spraying  in  the  orchards.  When  you 
ask  him  for  an  opinion  on  any  subject  you  get  a 
straight  statement,  usually  somewhere  near  right.  He 
is  a  source  of  joy  to  the  professors,  for  whenever  they 
get  stuck  they  can  always  depend  on  "Buck"  for  the 
correct  answer.

formed the  office  that  he  came  from  Fayville,  the  chief 
industry  of  which  is  manufacturing  sidewalks.  There 
is  such  a  demand  for  them  that  none  have  been  re- 
served for  Fayville  itself.  "Mull"  is  majoring  in 
"Showdown"  and  "Stud"  with  considerable  success. 
He  conies  to  class  occasionally.  He  is  always  ready 
to  tell  you  how  to  do  things  and  let  you  try  it.

This  boy  should  be  illustrating  Robert  Chambers  and

is  quite  ah  artist  as  illustrations  in  this  masterpiece 
will  testify.  He  does  a  great  amount  of  visiting  to 
.Northampton.  We  imagine  his  line  gets  him  a  good 
ways;  but  he  wants  to  watch  out  that  he  doesn't  hang 
himself  with  that  line.  When  Joe  leaves  here  he  plans 
to  raise  silver  fo.xes  for  furs.

can't  help  Avishing  there  were  more  of.  He's  always 
cheerful  and  always  willing  to  help  you  out.  "Rod" 
decided  early  in  his  college  career  that  Amherst  was 
not  good  enough  for  him,  so  he  moved  up  to  North 
Amherst  with  the  rest  of  the  highbrows.  As  cheer 
leader  and  a  member  of  the  Executive  Committee  he 
has  rendered  the  class  valuable  service.  He  is  inter- 
ested in  everything,  whether  it  be  athletics,  society,  or 
what  not,  and  is  always  there  with  a  helpful  suggestion 
or  a  willing  hand.

he  gets  a  letter  from  the  office  once  in  a  while  about  it,

write  to  him  oftener.  In  dairy  lab.  "Whoops"  does 
well,  especially  in  the  ice  cream  laboratory.  This  pic-

would  test  some  sour  milk.

and  a  gay  smile  for  everybody.  We  liked  "Kay"  when 
she  came  to  us  from  Lawrence  two  years  ago  and  her 
popularity  has  increased  as  we  have  come  to  know  her 
better.  She  is  always  ready  to  help  by  action  as  well 
as  by  her  cheerful  words.  Now  she's  going  out  to 
divulge  her  two  years'  store  of  knowledge  of  vegetable

treat  her  as  kindly  as  she  so  well  deserves.

an  active  interest  in  all  the  affairs  of  the  class  and  has 
been  a  booster  from  the  start.  The  fact  that  he  is  a 
member  of  the  band  proves  him  to  be  a  worker  for 
the  whole  college.  He  is  now  doing  valiant  work  as  a

The  most  silent  man  in  our  midst.  When  "Don"

"still  waters  run  deep."  That  old  adage  applies  to 
"Don."  He  is  a  conscientious  worker,  doing  every- 
thing he  does  well.  "Don"  is  very  patient.  Proof — 
he's  put  up  with  "Ted"  for  a  whole  year.  Feeding 
the  animals  over  the  hill  is  one  thing  the  boys  think 
"Don"  does  especially  well.

"Russ"  missed  his  calling.  Instead  of  raising  fruit 
he  should  be  a  circus  clown  or  a  lawyer.  He  would  be

Some  twenty-two  years  ago  this  belligerent  lad

howling  for,  so  now  it's  just  habit.  He  earned  his 
title  of  "Skipper"  swabbing  decks  for  Uncle  Sam.  We 
wonder  they  didn't  use  his  hair  for  a  brush.  Howard

without  making  further  conversation.  He  has  made 
quite  a  reputation  packing  fruit  in  class.  We  have  no

Back  in  the  woods  somewhere  between  here  and  the 
Atlantic  Ocean  lies  a  little  burg  called  Brimfield. 
From  out  of  this  wilderness  in  the  fall  of  1919  there 
appeared  a  youth  in  overalls  and  a  last  year's  straw 
hat.  "Kid"  was  a  typical  farmer  when  he  arrived  here, 
but  has  improved  to  some  extent  since.  He  was  a 
couple  of  days  late  getting  here  and  he  has  been  late 
ever  since.  If  the  office  counted  all  his  half  cuts  he'd 
still  have  another  year  to  go  before  he  finished  college. 
"Kid"  likes  to  farm  and  the  harder  the  job  the  better 
he  likes  it.

have  learned  well.  It's  so  hard  for  him  to  get  to  class

There  is  no  need  to  comment  on  the  work  he  has  done

needs  is  time.  However,  he  has  done  good  work  for

ing him.  Apparently  some  one  else  must  have  admired 
him  somewhat,  too,  because  "Doc"  got  married  over 
a  year  ago  and  is  the  proud  possessor  of  our  first  class 
baby.  He  is  a  living  proof  of  the  statement  that  good 
things  often  come  done  up  in  little  packages.

1897;  General  Agriculture;  A.  T.  G.;  Football  (1); 
Student  Council  (1,  2);  Executive  Committee  (2); 
Sergeant-at-Arms  (2);  Shorthorn  Staff  (2);  Baseball 
(2). 

Let  us  introduce  to  you  the  man  with  the  biggest 
heart  and  the  kindest  nature  in  the  class.  What  "Traf" 
won't  do  for  any  one  certainly  is  not  worth  doing.  He 
never  kicks,  but  just  puts  his  shoulder  to  the  wheel  and 
pushes,  no  matter  how  disagreeable  the  task.  "Traf" 
introduced  "Cozy  Corner"  candies  on  to  the  campus 
last  fall  and  has  been  depriving  us  of  our  spare  change 
ever  since.  He  says  if  he  didn't  like  candy  so  well 
himself  he'd  make  a  fortune,  but  so  far  he  has  eaten 
lip  all  the  profits.  His  record  in  baseball  is  a  wonder 
and  all  the  class  looks  to  Walter  for  grand  home  runs 
when  he  gets  started  on  his  job.

"Vart" 
Indian  Orchard 

1896;  Animal  Husbandry. 

One  of  the  learned  men  of  the  class.  "Vart"  knows 
more  about  national  and  international  affairs  than 
most  any  other  ten  men.  His  good  nature  has  made 
him  very  popular,  and  one  always  feels  safe  in  starting 
an  argument  with  him  because  he  doesn't  know  how 
to  get  mad.  "Justice"  says  we  ought  to  take  what  the 
profs,  say  with  a  grain  of  salt,  because  they  are  only 
average  men  after  all.  That's  good  philosophy  out- 
side the  class  room,  but  we  find  it  doesn't  work  in  exam- 
inations.

Helen  came  to  us  through'^the  influence  of  a  Boys' 
and  Girls'  Canning  Club  and;we're  glad  she  happened 
this  way.  Always  quiet  and  possessed  of  a  reserved 
manner  she  remained  in  her  shell  for  some  time,  but  a 
masquerade  revealed  rather  than  disguised  her  and 
she  has  since  been  increasingly  popular  among  her  class- 
mates. Her  latent  fun  and  quiet  good  humor  have 
made  her  a  favorite,  but  her  hypersusceptibility  to 
teasing  often  makes  her  a  victim  to  circumstance  and 
"others."  Her  conscientiousness  is  sometimes  her  un- 
doing, but  she  is  dependable  and  depended  upon  "many 
a  time  and  oft."

1898;    Pomology;   K.  K. 

The  only  time  this  gentleman  has  awakened  since 
he  arrived  in  Amherst  was  when  he  figured  in  the  col- 
lision of  the  co-ed  and  bicycle.  His  best  sleeps  are  in 
vegetable  gardening  laboratory  when  the  class  is  busy. 
However,  he  is  a  quiet  sleeper.  Once  a  prof,  said,  "If 
you  must  sleep,  do  so  quietly,  like  Warner."  It  has 
always  been  a  problem  to  us  how  Harry  gets  to  the 
hash-house  on  time  to  wipe  dishes.  "Nellie"  will 
never  make  a  farmer  until  farming  is  done  by  wireless, 
the  operator  pushing  a  button  from  the  veranda  for 
each  piece  of  work.

"The  man  worth  while  is  the  man  who  can  smile, 
when  everything  else  goes  wrong."  .Harry  is  the  origi- 
nal optimist.  Always  happy,  a  good  word  for  every 
one,  ever  ready  to  do  anything  for  the  class,  we  have 
a  good  friend  and  fellow-worker  in  him.  Harry  is  at 
the  long  end  of  the  alphabet  in  name  only.  In  the  Glee 
Club  he  feels  at  home,  but  outside  it  is  very  difficult 
to  get  him  to  display  his  prowess  as  a  warbler.

That  desperate-looking  character  with  the  wide 
sombrero,  fancy  vest,  studded  belt,  and  pistol  watch 
fob  who  moves  about  in  our  midst  is  not  a  Western 
bandit  or  desperado.  That  is  "A!"  Watson.  When 
he  first  arrived  we  didn't  know  whether  to  smile  or 
run.  Now  we  laugh.  "Doc"  proves  to  us  that  looks 
are  deceiving.  He  is  a  good-natured,  big-hearted  pal, 
a  favorite  with  every  one.  June  sixth  will  be  a  red- 
letter  day  for  Rhode  Island  fruit  growers,  for  on  that 
day  "Al"  completes  his  pomology  course  at  Aggie. 
We  hope  the  trees  are  headed  low  so  "Al"  can  pick 
from  the  ground.

This  handsome  lad  uses  his  good  appearance  to  ad- 
vantage, judging  bj'  the  amount  of  correspondence  he 
carries  on.  If  he  had  his  chariot  up  here  all  the  year 
'round  there  wouldn't  be  much  class  work  done  by 
"Lonnie."  He  is  another  of  our  classmates  with  a 
nature  as  unruffled  as  a  mud  puddle.  We  never  saw 
him  out  of  sorts  with  the  world.  On  that  account 
alone  he  should  get  along;  but  he  is  also  energetic,  con- 
scientious, and  willing.  Harold  is  going  to  follow  in 
his  father's  footsteps,  and  turn  to  that  famous  apple' 
countrv  for  his  success.

Pep!  Pep!  Pep!  That's  "Ted"  all  over.  So  full  of 
life  that  he  spills  it  all  over  every  one  who  crosses  his 
path  until  the  first  thing  they  know  they  are  reacting 
the  same  way.  "Ted"  can  get  into  more  mischief  and 
enjoy  himself  at  other  people's  expense  than  a  six-year- 
old  youngster.  We  lost  "Ted's"  company  recently. 
He  went  to  California,  via  Illinois,  to  try  his  hand  at 
citrus  fruits.  We  expect  some  day  soon  to  receive  a 
lemon  from  him.  We  are  sorry  to  lose  him,  but  know 
that  his  good-hearted,  happy-go-lucky,  yet  consci- 
entious self  will  be  a  success.

Alice  has  started  a  craze  for  fortune  telling.  She 
has  made  a  reputation  here  and  could  make  a  profit- 
able living  if  she  cared  to  capitalize  her  cleverness. 
Her  talent,  however,  is  not  confined  to  this  one  line. 
Her  work  with  photographs  and  paintings  has  won 
her  much  renown  at  Aggie.  She  is  a  conscientious 
worker  and  an  interested  one,  in  her  studies  and  in  her 
other  activities.  She  participates  in  all  sports  possible 
and  has  a  love  for  woods  which  leads  her  on  many  a 
long  hike.  Her  good  sense  and  business  ability  lead 
us  to  believe  she  will  meet  with  success  in  whatever 
work  she  chooses.

\\'e  didn't  discover  this  young  man  until  long  after 
he  had  been  amongst  us,  on  account  of  his  quiet,  un- 
assuming, almost  seclusive  nature.  Now  we  feel  we 
have  missed  a  friendship  worth  having.  With  the 
"General"  and  "Link,"  Ralph  completes  the  founda- 
tion of  a  downtown  church.  He  is  interested  in  fruit 
growing  and  says  they  can  go  ahead  and  butcher  all 
the  cows  now.  What  he  likes  about  it  is  that  you  can 
start  to  pick  apples  at  ten  as  well  as  at  four  in  the 
morning.

Norwood  S3  Pleasant  Street 

1900;  Pomology;  K.  K.;  Football  (1,  2). 
Thoroughly  harmless  to  look  at,  perfectly  gentle  to 
talk  to,  yet  a  cyclone  on  the  gridiron.  "Wig"  for 
two  years  has  been  one  of  our  mainstays  in  the  back- 
field.  Not  only  in  athletics  does  he  excel.  A  perfect 
attendance  at  two  other  colleges  is  his.  The  way  we 
look  at  it  he  must  have  some  constitution,  for  along 
with  all  his  accomplishments,  for  two  whole  years  he 
has  not  only  eaten  but  worked  at  the  "hash-house." 
"Wig"  has  been  a  loyal  supporter  of  class  and  college. 
To  get  along  most  rapidly  in  his  chosen  line  he  must 
change  in  only  one  respect.  He  can  ask  a  surprising 
number  of  foolish  questions.

A  roly-poly  boy,  with  the  most  beautiful  smile  you 
ever  set  eyes  on,  "Steve"  came  to  college  to  get  a 
rest, — night  life  in  Thompsonville  was  getting  too 
strenuous.  Judging  from  the  way  "Steve"  carries  on 
up  here,  we'll  keep  away  from  his  town.  He  quit  us 
cold  to  take  over  the  operation  of  a  placenear  home 
as  s.oon  as  he  figured  he  had  had  sufficient  rest. 
"Steve"  ought  to  get  along  well  in  this  world  if  he  keeps 
on  the  way  he  has  started.

Two  laborious  years  letting  "Pick"  step  all  over  him 
on  the  football  field  has  failed  to  change  "Woodie" 
from  his  steady-going,  good-natured  self.  He  passes  on 
his  happy  nature  to  others  in  stories  that  would  make 
a  sphinx  laugh.  Sometimes  we  wonder  how  possibly 
he  can  pass  for  a  deacon  on  Sundays.  "Matt"  wants 
a  farm  that  can  be  hung  out  on  the  line  to  work,  and 
can  be  folded  up  and  stored  safely  while  he  goes  on  a 
vacation.

Usually  quiet,  obscure,  this  young  man  would  hardly 
be  thought  the  ex-mayor  of  Millbury,  and  proficient 
center  gardener  of  the  nine.  "Pep"  may  not  look  the 
part,  but  he  has  the  goods.  Not  only  in  baseball  does 
he  bat  heavily;  he  has  been  a  heavy  hitter  at  Jerry's 
and  back  of  the  town  hall.  Outside  the  regular  season 
he  is  one  of  Mr.  Banta's  bright,  conscientious  students.

When  we  arrived  on  this  campus  in  September,  nineteen  hundred  and 
twenty,  total  strangers  to  everything  and  everybody  here,  we  only  began  to  see 
our  way  when  the  Student  Council  took  us  in  hand,  guiding  us  in  our  actions, 
presiding  at  our  first  meeting  for  organization,  and  furnishing  the  familiar  skull 
cap  which  turned  out  to  be  a  very  important  factor  in  helping  us  to  know  each 
other  and  get  together  to  organize. 

The  officers  we  elected  at  the  first  meeting  were:  President,  W.J.  Harrington; 
vice-president,  M.S.Brown;  secretary,  MissE.  Russell;  treasurer,  MissK.  Powell. 

Our  constitution  states  that  new  officers  be  elected  at  the  end  of  the  first 
term.     The  only  change  in  the  list  was  for  secretary.  Miss  Davenport. 

TheSocialCommittee,with  D.M.White  as  chairman,  became  promptly  active, 
and  made  it  possible  for  the  class  and  its  guests  to  enjoy  some  very  good  times. 

During  the  fall  term  four  of  our  members,  guilty  of  infractions  of  rules, 
were  tried  before  the  Student  Council  and  sentenced.  They  were  given  punish- 
ment on  an  old-fashioned  ducking  stool  in  the  College  Pond. 

The  Glee  Club,  under  J.  E.  Worthley's  direction,  struggled  hard  to  get  a 
good  foundation  for  next  year.  No  concerts  were  given,  but  prospects  for  the 
future  are  encouraging. 

A  Dramatic  Club  became  rapidly  active  under  the  direction  of  President 
Harrington  and  with  Professor  Patterson  as  coach.  A  fine  act  was  staged  at  the 
Aggie  Revue.  An  attempt  to  present  "The  Dictator"  was  unsuccessful  before 
the  close  of  school,  but  this  play  will  be  given  on  our  return  to  college  next  fall. 

Our  first  year  has  been  a  busy  one,  just  filled  with  new  experiences.  The 
class  has  been  confronted  with  many  difficulties  and  has  found  its  way  out  satis- 
factorily in  every  case.  We  look  forward  to  leaving  a  fine  record  behind  us  when 
we  graduate  in  1922. 

We  should  like  to  take  this  opportunity  to  express  our  heartfelt  thanks  for 
the  Kind  Word  and  the  Helping  Hand  extended  to  us  by  the  Class  of  1921  and 
its  members  individually  and  collectively.  May  they  who  are  going  from  us  to 
start  out  on  the  journey  of  life  feel  that  they  have  faithful  friends  in  the  Two- 
Year  Class  of  1922  at  Massachusetts  Agricultural  College.

Cfje  ^Jort  Course  ^tubent  Council 

On  November  5,  1919,  a  temporary  Short  Course  Student  Council,  appointed 
by  President  Butterfield,  held  its  first  meeting.  Through  the  efforts  of  this  tem- 
porary body  a  constitution  was  drawn  up  and  a  foundation  laid  on  which  the 
first  permanent  Council  elected  some  weeks  later  could  build.  The  purpose  of 
the  Council  is  to  guard  and  foster  the  traditions  and  customs  of  this  college 
among  all  Short  Course  students,  and  to  consider  all  matters  relating  to  the 
action  and  disciplining  of  Short  Course  students. 

The  membership  in  the  Council  is  made  up  of  six  men  from  the  Senior  Two- 
Year  class,  four  men  from  the  Freshman  class,  one  man  from  the  Vocational 
Poultry  Course,  one  man  from  the  Rural  Engineering  Course,  and  one  delegate- 
at-large. 

The  work  of  the  Council  has  been  very  varied,  but  in  all  matters  which  have 
come  before  it,  it  has  acted  wisely  and  justly.  Among  the  many  duties  which 
the  Council  has  it  seems  worth  while  to  mention  the  following: 

It  conducts  at  frequent  intervals  joint  mass  meetings  of  both  classes  for  the 
consideration  of  any  matters  which  are  common  to  the  interests  of  both  classes. 

Early  in  its  career  the  Council  interested  itself  in  the  development  and  in 
the  recognition  of  the  Two-Year  Athletic  teams.  A  glance  at  the  records  of  the 
Two-Year  teams  for  the  current  year  shows  the  results  of  its  endeavors  along 
this  line. 

The  Council  has  been  called  upon  to  act  in  several  cases  regarding  the  action 
and  discipline  of  certain  individuals  and  has  always  acted  with  the  best  of  judg- 
ment. 

It  is  continually  working  in  co-operation  with  the  faculty  for  improvements 
in  the  courses  of  study. 

These  are  but  a  few  of  the  many  duties  of  the  Council,  which  it  always 
meets  with  open  mind  and  willing  spirit.  The  Short  Course  Student  Council 
has  lived  up  to  the  purpose  for  which  it  was  formed  and  has  proved  itself  to  be  a 
valuable  asset  to  the  Course  and  to  the  college.

Social  ^ctibitp 

Clagsi  of  1921 

The  Social  Committee  of  the  class  has  been  active  during  the  past  year  and 
a  half  and  several  successful  social  functions  have  been  held.  Although  the  class 
as  a  whole  has  not  held  many  distinctly  class  functions,  different  clubs  and  social 
groups  have  held  many  enjoyable  events  which  have  done  much  to  develop  the 
social  life  of  the  course. 

The  first  social  event  was  a  dance  held  in  the  Drill  Hall  and  attended  by 
nearly  every  one  in  the  class.  Director  and  Mrs.  Phelan  were  present  to  help 
us  enjoy  a  very  pleasant  evening.  This  affair  served  to  make  the  students 
acquainted  with  each  other  and  thus  helped  lay  the  basis  for  the  Spirit  of  the  Class. 

As  our  college  is  situated  in  the  historic  valley  of  the  Connecticut  River, 
and  the  hills  and  towns  abound  in  lore  of  Indian  and  early  Colonial  days,  the 
hope  of  an  opportunity  to  visit  these  places  became  an  actuality.  On  fair  days 
many  groups  of  class  members  could  be  seen  hiking  over  the  countryside  in 
"stag  parties,"  or  the  more  fortunate  in  company  with  "co-eds,"  and  with  those 
large  packs  familiar  to  all  who  like  to  tramp, — the  ever  popular  hot  dogs  and 
rolls.  Many  a  pleasant  day  has  been  spent  and  many  firm  friendships  formed 
about  a  campfire  in' the  evening. 

On  Columbus  Day  twenty-four  students  tried  their  luck  on  the  Holyoke 
Range.  Rain  set  in  before  the  top  was  achieved,  but  it  failed  to  dampen  the 
waterproof  ardor  of  the  hikers.  It  took  quite  a  while  to  convince  a  constable  of  a 
near-by  town  that  they  were  only  harmless  students  out  for  a  lark,  before  he  finally 
believed.  Some  real  cider  at  the  old  Hadley  Mill  on  the  way  home  helped  keep  up 
spirits,  and  a  memory  of  a  great  time  is  retained  by  those  who  made  the  trip. 

The  women  students  have  from  time  to  time  seemed  possessed  with  a  keen 
desire  to  cultivate  the  acquaintance  of  several  of  the  most  interesting  places 
near  by,  and  have  very  kindly  invited  different  members  of  the  class  as  guests 
on  some  of  their  very  pleasant  "bacon  bats"  and  "wieney  roasts."  In  spite  of 
many  handicaps  they  still  remain  loyal  boosters  of  the  sport  and  are  ever  ready 
to  participate  in  a  real  hike.     Our  co-eds  are  indeed  good  sports. 

The  year  ending  in  March,  just  as  we  were  beginning  to  know  each  other 
well,  prevented  our  having  any  more  jolly  times  until  September.  However, 
all  felt  that  when  college  opened  again  they  would  proceed  to  make  more  of  the 
pleasant  social  side  of  college  life  than  they  had  this  first  year. 

A  reception  to  the  entering  Freshmen  of  the  Two-Year  Course  was  held  in 
the  Drill  Hall  shortly  after  our  second  year  of  college  began.  Practically  every 
one  from  both  classes  was  present.  The  early  evening  was  devoted  to  forming 
acquaintances  with  the  new  men  and  women,  and  helping  them  to  feel  at  home. 
Dancing  followed.  Director  and  Mrs.  Phelan,  Professor  and  Mrs.  Strahan, 
and  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Viets  were  our  patrons  and  patronesses.  The  hall  was  prettily 
decorated  with  autumn  colors,  with  pumpkins,  cornstalks,  leaves,  and  even  the 
old-time  cider  barrel  where  Steve  Dole  and  Gordon  Steele  served  refreshments. 
When  the  guests  had  departed,  Steve  and  Gordon  asked  Russell  to  help  carry  the  re- 

85 


maining  refreshments  home.  They  were  very  nearly  successful.  This  very  success- 
ful and  pleasant  function  paved  the  way  for  other  pleasant  interclass  affairs. 

After  a  long  wait  for  the  busy  Drill  Hall,  the  Social  Committee  gave  us  a 
dance  of  unusual  brilliancy.  The  hall  was  decorated  in  our  class  colors,  yellow 
and  blue,  in  a  very  artistic  arrangement.  The  Freshman  class  was  again  our 
guest.  We  were  fortunate  in  securing  the  presence  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Viets,  Miss 
Skinner,  and  Mrs.  Bacharach  as  chaperons.  Very  fine  music,  a  pleasing  collation 
of  ice  cream  and  cake,  and  a  congenial  gathering  insured  all  a  very  happy  evening. 

We  now  look  forward  with  a  great  deal  of  expectation  to  a  very  wonderful 
Commencement  Prom.  This  will  be  the  first  Two-Year  Commencement  Prom 
held  on  this  campus  and  we  want  it  to  be  an  unqualified  success.  A  very  capa- 
ble and  efificient  committee  in  charge  enjoins  us  to  live  in  hopes,  to  look  fprward 
to  "The  Event"  of  our  two  happy  years  at  Massachusetts  Agricultural  College. 

Class  of  1922 

The  first  appearance  of  the  Freshman  class  in  social  activities  at  M.  A.  C. 
was  in  their  attendance  at  the  reception  tendered  them  by  the  Class  of  1921. 
This  affair  was  very  valuable  to  us  in  forming  helpful  friendships  among  the  men 
who  have  been  over  the  road  we  must  travel.  Practically  every  Freshman 
attended  this  function  and  was  rewarded  with  a  very  pleasant  evening. 

On  Saturday,  October  thirty-first,  the  Freshmen  held  their  first  dance  of 
the  year  in  the  form  of  an  informal  Hallowe'en  party  in  the  Drill  Hall.  Guests 
of  the  evening  were  Director  and  Mrs.  Phelan,  Mr.  Tirrell,  and  Mr.  Grayson. 
The  party  was  a  great  success.  Prizes  were  awarded  for  the  prettiest  costumes, 
many  of  which  were  very  original  and  unique.  Games  were  provided  for  those 
who  were  not  dancing.  A  good  orchestra  provided  lively  music  for  the  dancers. 
Appropriate  Hallowe'en  decorations  lent  a  finishing  touch  to  the  whole  affair. 

At  the  Social  Union  rooms  on  December  eighteenth  the  class  held  an  infor- 
mal party.  Miss  Skinner  and  Mrs.  Bacharach  were  the  guests  of  the  evening. 
In  the  hall,  prettily  decorated  with  evergreen,  were  held  dancing  and  games, 
interspersed  with  corn  popping  and  toasting  of  marshmallows. 

A  Welcome  party  to  the  entering  ten-weeks  students  was  held  Saturday, 
January  ninth,  in  Social  Union  rooms,  with  Miss  Skinner  and  Mrs.  Bacharach 
as  guests  of  the  evening.  Marshmallows  were  toasted  before  the  open  fire  and 
games  and  dancing  helped  all  present  to  spend  a  very  enjoyable  evening. 

The  class  bid  farewell  to  the  Senior  class  on  Sai;urday,  March  nineteenth, 
before  leaving  for  the  summer's  work.  The  Farewell  Party  was  in  the  form  of 
a  masquerade  at  the  Drill  Hall.  Prettily  decorated  with  palms  and  crepe  paper, 
the  hall  presented  a  pleasing  appearance.  Guests  of  the  evening  were  Director 
and  Mrs.  Phelan,  Professor  and  Mrs.  Gunness,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Banta,  Professor 
and  Mrs.  Denman,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Viets,  and  Professor  and  Mrs.  Patterson. 
Judges  awarded  prizes  after  much  meditation  for  the  prettiest,  most  complete, 
and  original  costumes.  There  were  many  fine  costumes.  A  sleight-of-hand 
entertainment  was  presented  by  Mr.  W.  S.  Smith  during  intermission.  Every 
one  enjoyed  a  very  pleasant  evening.  Much  favorable  comment  was  heard 
from  the  Seniors  to  whom  our  party  was  tendered.

^fje  (§(ee  Clulj 


During  the  early  part  of  the  year,  Director  Phelan  suggested  that  the 
classes  develop  the  social  side  of  college  life  to  a  great  extent,  not  to  develop 
only  the  intellectual  mind,  but  to  broaden  out  and  get  in  touch  with  our  fellow 
students.  The  committee  on  music.  Dill,  Taylor,  and  Dole  of  the  Seniors,  and 
Woodworth,  Delano,  and  Worthley  of  the  Freshmen,  decided  that  organization 
of  a  glee  club  would  be  of  real  benefit.  Accordingly  they  set  about  getting  men 
interested,  and  selecting  music,  toward  the  cost  of  which  the  students  contributed 
generously. 

Early  in  January  a  large  group  of  men  had  become  interested  and  appeared 
at  the  practice  sings.  Rehearsals  were  held  regularly  every  Wednesday  in  Room 
114,  Stockbridge  Hall.  No  concerts  were  planned  for  this  year  on  account  of 
the  late  start  made,  but  it  is  hoped  that  next  year  at  least  one  outside  concert 
will  be  given.  A  professional  coach  will  be  obtained  in  the  future,  and  the  work 
will  thus  be  made  much  more  effective  and  interesting.  Director  Phelan  and 
Professor  French  have  rendered  valuable  assistance  and  advice  to  the  committee 
in  charge  of  the  club.  The  members  of  the  club  have  worked  together  faith- 
fully to  make  it  a  success.  Their  effort  has  not  been  in  vain.  An  early  start 
and  a  successful  season  is  promised  for  next  year.

dramatics! 


Among  the  members  of  the  Class  of  1922  there  are  many  with  dramatic 
talent  who  are  vitally  interested.  At  the  November  meeting  the  question  was 
brought  up  for  definite  class  action.  A  committee  comprised  of  Nicholas  P.  Har- 
rison, Stanley  F.  Blish,  and  Elizabeth  Russell  was  chosen  to  investigate  the  ques- 
tion and  organize  a  Dramatic  Club. 

With  the  "Aggie  Revue"  about  a  month  distant,  the  committee  secured 
Professor  Patterson  as  coach  and  selected  a  one-act  play  for  presentation.  The 
play  chosen  was  a  humorous  sketch  in  Irish  dialect  entitled  "Marriages  are  Made 
in  Heaven — and  Elsewhere."  The  cast  settled  down  to  serious  work  and  soon 
had  the  play  in  shape  for  presentation.  On  the  night  of  presentation  at  the 
"Revue"  the  members  of  the  Two-Year  Course  had  the  satisfaction  of  seeing  as 
splendid  a  performance  of  their  program  as  any  one  could  ask  for.  The  little 
production  was  a  credit  to  cast,  coach,  and  course.  Those  who  participated 
were  Stanley  Blish,  Katherine  Powell,  Elizabeth  Russell,  and  Fred  Margreve. 

In  January  the  problem  of  organizing  a  permanent  Dramatic  Club  was 
undertaken.  Professor  Patterson  was  secured  as  coach,  and  presided  at  the 
first  meeting  which  was  held  at  Draper  Hall.  At  this  meeting  the  following 
officers  were  elected:  Nicholas  P.  Harrison,  president;  Stanley  F.  Blish,  vice- 
president;   Miss  Elizabeth  Russell,  secretary. 

The  Club  became  immediately  active.  A  three-act  play  entitled  "The 
Dictator"  was  selected  for  presentation.  Each  rehearsal  indicated  progress, 
the  cast  settlingdown  at  once  to  earnest  endeavor.  It  was  impossible  to  present 
this  production  before  placement  work  in  March.  The  Club  will  resume  its 
activities  and  furnish  a  splendid  entertainment  to  an  appreciative  audience  upon 
the  return  to  college  this  fall.

Not  the  least  important  of  the  organizations  within  the  Two-Year  Course 
are  the'  clubs,  which  are  at  present  four  in  number.  As  the  course  has  been 
developed  the  clubs  have  been  formed  as  a  natural  outgrowth  of  that  develop- 
ment. 

These  organizations  should  and  do  play  an  important  part  in  the  life  of  the 
student  body.  It  has  been  truly  said  that  fifty  per  cent  of  a  man's  education 
while  in  college  consists  in  the  friendships  which  he  makes  and  the  benefits 
which  he  derives  from  those  friendships.  The  club  offers  an  opportunity  of 
close  association  and  acquaintance  not  to  be  found  in  the  casual  meetings  in  the 
class  room  and  on  the  campus,  and  for  this  reason  the  club  occupies  a  place  of 
high  importance  in  the  life  of  the  college.  It  offers  to  the  members  a  chance  to 
discuss  freely  and  frankly  their  own  individual  problems.  It  enables  every  man 
to  meet  every  other  man  on  an  equal  plane  and  to  learn  the  true  nature  of  the 
individuals  who  are  his  fellow  members.  In  short,  it  is  in  the  club  that  a  man 
finds  the  true  expression  of  what  college  really  means  and  is. 

The  clubs  stand  for  the  promotion  of  the  interests  of  the  course  and  of  the 
college.  They  make  it  a  policy  to  stand  aside  when  it  is  found  the  college  and 
club  activities  tend  to  conflict.  This  is  as  it  should  be  and  as  we  hope  it  always 
will  be.  It  is  possible  to  develop  social  activities  to  a  larger  degree  in  the  club 
than  in  the  course  as  a  whole,  and  men  must  have  some  social  activities  or  they 
will  become  as  mere  machines.  It  is  our  hope  that  these  clubs  will  continue  to 
prosper  and  will  live  up  to  the  high  purposes  for  which  they  were  formed.

i:tt)o=iear  ^tfjletics; 


Two-Year  students  at  Massachusetts  Agricultural  College  are  not  eligible 
to  play  on  M.  A.  C.  varsity  teams.  An  athletic  department  for  the  course  was 
therefore  organized,  and  a  team  representing  the  course  in  three  major  sports, 
football,  basketball,  and  baseball,  plays  a  schedule  of  outside  games. 

"Em"  Grayson,  a  graduate  of  M.  A.  C,  and  a  star  athlete  who  played  end 
on  one  of  Aggie's  best  teams,  was  appointed  coach,  so  we  were  indeed  fortunate 
in  that  respect.  Coach  Grayson  has  turned  out  some  very  good  products  from 
the  raw  material  available.  The  teams  have  been  a  credit  to  the  course.  Two- 
Year  athletics  has  been  given  a  good  start;  a  valuable  precedent  has  been  estab- 
lished. 

jFootfaall,  1919 

The  response  to  the  call  for  candidates  for  the  team  was  answered  by  a 
large  squad  of  eager  but  mostly  inexperienced  men.  It  was  indeed  a  difficult 
task  for  the  coach  to  develop  a  team  from  a  squad  of  such  varied  experience. 
However,  with  the  spirit  and  pep  that  has  ever  been  shown  by  the  Two-Year 
students,  and  under  the  direction  of  the  athletic  department,  the  most  difficult 
problems  were  soon  cleared  away. 

It  was  rather  late  in  the  season  to  begin  to  schedule  games  for  the  current  fall, 
but  the  newly  elected  managers  succeeded  in  arranging  a  schedule  of  four  games. 

Professor  Hicks,  in  charge  of  athletics,  ordered  complete  outfits  for  the 
team,  and  they  arrived  in  plenty  of  time  to  be  christened  in  our  first  game. 

Coach  Grayson  had  been  working  industriously  with  the  squad  and  had 
managed  somehow  to  select  two  teams  from  the  "would-be's"  who  had  been 
out  every  day  showing  him  how  the  game  should  not  be  played.  A  few  of  the 
men  had  previously  played,  either  on  high  school  teams  or  elsewhere.  With 
"Em's"  coaching,  their  assistance,  and  the  eternal  practice,  a  team  began  to 
round  into  shape. 

After  a  short  two  weeks  of  practice  the  first  game  with  Williston  Academy 
was  played.  As  Captain  Pickard  says,  "It  sure  was  some  game!"  We  were 
soft,  green,  and  with  insufficient  practice.  They  really  did  have  a  powerful 
team  that  season.     They  won! 

Then  we  played  Springfield  College  2ds  and  they  won.  Our  next  game  was 
with  varsity  "C"  team  when  we  put  over  our  first  victory.  We  duplicated  with 
Rosary  High  in  the  final  game  of  the  year.  The  team  continued  to  practice, 
however,  and  gave  Coach  Gore's  varsity  team  some  good  practice  scrimmaging 
for  their  final  games. 

All  in  all  it  was  a  profitable  season.     Some  valuable  experience  had  been 
gained,  a  nucleus  for  the  1920  team  was  developed,  and  the  activity  of  the  team 
helped  considerably  in  imbibing  spirit  into  the  new  Two-Year  Course.

Jfootball,  1920 

It  certainly  was  a  great  team!  Spirit  and  pep!  Every  one  had  the  spirit 
of  "Let's  go!"  and  there  were  four  and  five  teams  out  daily,  all  working  to  make 
the  Two-Year  varsity  team.  Coach  Grayson  certainly  had  his  hands  full  to 
keep  them  all  busy  alone.  Twenty  men  from  the  1919  season  reported.  The 
rest  were  recruits,  most  of  them  raw. 

The  season  looked  promising.  Six  games  had  been  scheduled  with  the 
strongest  "prep"  school  and  college  second  teams  in  the  section.  "Pick"  was 
again  elected  captain,  and  under  his  leadership  and  "Em's"  coaching  the  team 
soon  began  to  get  into  swing. 

The  season's  first  game  was  unavoidably  cancelled  and  that  left  us  with  the 
Springfield  game  on  hand  without  any  previous  practice  games.  Nearly  the 
entire  student  body  journeyed  to  Springfield  for  that  game,  and  the  team  put 
up  a  game  fight  but  lost,  21  to  7.  Much,  yea,  very  much  experience  was  gained 
in  that  game.  The  following  Saturday  the  team  went  to  Connecticut  to  play 
Suffield  Academy.  It  was  a  wonderful  game,  a  "regular  heart-breaker,"  for 
with  fourteen  more  first  downs  than  our  opponents  we  lost.  The  team  was 
swinging  into  its  stride,  however,  and  although  the  next  game,  with  Gushing 
Academy,  was  supposedly  our  hardest  game,  the  team  literally  walked  away 
with  it.  It  was  "Let's  go!"  every  minute  and  every  fnan  on  the  team  fought 
e\'ery  second  of  play.  The  next  game,  with  Connecticut  Aggie  2ds,  was  played 
on  about  the  coldest  day  of  the  year.  Despite  the  cold  raw  wind  which  swept 
the  field,  almost  every  Two-Year  student  was  out  there  cheering  the  team  on  to 
the  last  minute  of  a  53  to  0  victory. 

Truly  a  successful  season,  not  only  in  games  won,  but  in  the  wonderful 
spirit  shown  by  all.  It  was  always  M.  A.  C.  first,  as  was  shown  by  the  willing- 
ness to  help  out  Coach  Gore's  varsity  teams  with  practice  games  once  or  twice 
each  week.

^gasikettjall,  1920 


Our  first  basketball  team  was  started  in  1920,  and  although  there  were  not 
quite  the  difficulties  encountered  as  with  the  first  football  team,  it  was  not  all 
smooth  sailing.  The  question  of  scheduling  games  was  a  difficult  proposition, 
the  same  trouble  being  encountered  as  with  our  first  football  team, — the  Two- 
Year  Course  and  its  teams  were  unknown  in  athletic  circles.  The  manager 
finally  arranged  a  schedule  of  ten  games. 

Coach  Grayson  had  a  difficult  proposition  on  his  hands  to  develop  a  team 
from  the  material  available.  Repeated  calls  were  made  for  candidates,  but 
there  were  only  a  few  who  had  played  before.  The  team  worked  hard,  and  with 
"Em's"  coaching  and  the  daily  plugging  it  improved  rapidly.  There  were  two 
teams,  a  varsity  and  a  class  team.  This  allowed  a  greater  number  to  play  .and 
provided  competition.  The  team  was  given  excellent  support  by  the  student 
body  and  at  both  varsity  and  class  games  great  enthusiasm  was  shown. 

Not  a  very  large  per  cent  of  the  scheduled  games  were  won,  nevertheless 
the  season  cannot  be  called  anything  but  successful  for  it  stimulated  the  already 
fine  spirit  of  the  course  and  laid  the  foundation  for  a  splendid  team  for  the  1921 
season.

?Pa£(feetWl,  1921 


The  basketball  season  of  1921  produced  a  Two-Year  team  successful  in 
every  true  sense  of  the  word.  It  was  successful  in  the  large  number  of  games 
won,  successful  in  that  it  had  that  true  Aggie  spirit,  that  quality  which  is  essential 
to  a  real  team,  sportsmanlike  playing,  earnest  effort,  and  the  determination  to 
play  its  best  the  entire  game. 

There  was  hearty  response  to  the  first  call  for  candidates.  Practically  all 
of  those  who  played  in  1919  responded,  besides  a  number  of  new  men,  and  mem- 
bers of  the  Freshman  class.  With  the  services  of  Coach  Grayson  and  the  large 
squad  out,  the  season  looked  very  bright  to  those  who  watched  the  practice 
games.  With  the  start  of  practice,  "Bunny"  Burnett  was  unanimously  re  elected 
captain. 

Practice  started  off  enthusiastically,  the  only  handicap  being  in  the  large 
squad  out.  Two  teams,  a  varsity  and  a  second  team,  were  soon  picked  and  lively 
practice  games  took  place  daily.  There  was  strong  opposition  for  every  posi- 
tion and  every  one  was  given  a  chance  to  make  good.  After  a  period  of  hard 
daily  practice  a  very  promising  team  was  developed  under  the  efficient  direction 
of  our  coach. 

The  season  started  off  with  a  "bang,"  the  first  game  being  a  win  over  Clark 
School  with  a  good  score.  The  next  three  games  were  also  wins  for  our  Two- 
Year  team.  The  first  upset  came  in  the  game  with  Suffield  Academy,  but  we 
shall  always  claim  that  if  a  return  game  had  been  played  the  score  would  have 
been  reversed.  The  next  two  games  resulted  in  victories  for  our  team.  These 
were  followed  by  a  defeat  at  the  hands  of  Deerfield  Academy  on  their  court. 
However,  this  score  was  evened  up  later  in  the  season  when  our  boys  succeeded 
in  vanquishing  the  Academy  in  the  final  game  of  the  year.  The  team  finished 
its  brilliant  season  with  five  straight  wins,  making  the  total  of  eleven  victories 
and  two  defeats. 

The  support  given  both  the  class  team  and  the  varsity  team  by  the  members 
of  the  student  body  was  no  small  factor  in  spurring  the  team  on  to  its  best  effort. 
The  spirit  of  the  team  was  excellent  at  all  times.  As  in  the  case  of  the  develop- 
ment of  every  one  of  our  fine  athletic  teams  no  small  credit  is  due  Coach  "Em" 
Grayson  for  his  fine  spirit  and  painstaking  interest  in  the  welfare  and  success  of 
our  teams.

Pageball,  1920 


The  first  baseball  team  to  represent  the  Two-Year  Course  at  Massachusetts 
Agricultural  College  was  organized  in  the  spring  of  1920.  It  was  composed 
principally  of  Federal  Board  students  who  were  not  out  on  placement  training. 
There  were  among  the  players  three  men  from  the  first  graduating  class  of  the 
course. 

"Em"  Grayson,  our  competent  coach  of  Two-Year  athletics,  took  the  squad 
in  hand  in  preparation  for  a  successful  season.  Although  a  late  start  was  made, 
the  manager  was  able  to  secure  a  schedule  of  seven  games  besides  several  practice 
games.  It  was  not  long  after  the  squad  settled  down  to  serious  effort  that  a 
promising  team  began  to  develop. 

The  first  game,  with  Williston  Academy,  resulted  in  a  rather  decisive  defeat 
for  the  team.  However,  that  defeat  was  such  a  lesson  to  them  that  they  never 
let  another  team  catch  them  napping  the  entire  season.  As  a  result,  the  season 
ended  with  a  record  of  one  defeat  and  six  victories  for  the  Two-Year  team. 

Although  the  team  had  few  "rooters"  due  to  the  fact  that  the  class  of  1921 
was  then  out  on  farm  placement  for  the  summer,  the  same  determination  of 
purpose  and  fine  spirit  was  shown  by  this  team  as  has  been  shown  by  every  Two- 
Year  team  developed  under  Coach  Grayson  at  M.  A.  C.

Pagetjall,  1921 


Practice  for  the  1921  baseball  season  was  started  indoors  immediately  on 
the  close  of  the  basketball  season.  There  were  at  least  a  dozen  battery  men  out 
daily  and  the  smack  of  ball  and  glove  could  be  heard  In  the  Drill  Hall  at  any 
time  of  the  day.  Enthusiasm  ran  high  and  everything  was  indicative  of  a  very 
successful  season. 

Fourteen  games  had  been  scheduled  and  a  hard  but  promising  year  was 
looked  forward  to  by  the  team.  The  early  spring  allowed  the  squad  to  be  soon 
out  on  the  diamond,  with  an  occasional  "skull  practice"  of  an  evening  "in  the 
Drill  Hall.  The  team  had  been  doing  very  well  in  practices  and  showed  its 
strength  by  winning  handily  in  its  first  game  with  Amherst  High. 

In  baseball,  possibly  more  often  than  anywhere  else,  the  unexpected  will 
happen.  It  certainly  happened  in  the  second  game  of  the  season,  when,  in  a 
very  weird  game  with  Holyoke  High,  the  Two-Year  team  was  defeated,  although 
in  an  attempt  to  redeem  themselves  they  scored  seven  runs  in  the  ninth. 

Perhaps  this  upset  was  a  good  thing  for  the  boys,  for  it  seemed  to  put  new 
life  and  purpose  into  the  squad,  and  with  much  "pep"  and' playing  excellent 
ball  they  won  the  next  six  games  against  the  strongest  academy  teams  in  Western 
Massachusetts,  until  the  second  time  they  met  defeat  on  the  sand-lot  diamond 
of  the  unbeaten  Rosary  High  of  Holyoke. 

The  team  came  promptly  back  into  its  stride  and  won  the  remaining  five 
games  of  the  schedule,  the  most  notable  of  these  being  the  games  with  Spring- 
field College  2ds,  Rosary  High,  and  Deerfield  Academy. 

The  victory  over  Deerfield  at  Commencement  was  a  fitting  climax  to  a 
gloriously  successful  season.  The  Two- Year  baseball  team  of  1921  was  a  team 
of  which  to  be  proud.  It  played  excellent  sportsmanlike  baseball  with  a  spirit 
and  determination  that  is  not  often  found,  but  which  we  hope  will  always  be 
characteristic  of  "Aggie  Two- Year"  men.  This  great  team  of  1921  furnished 
an  appropriate  ending  to  the  athletic  career  of  the  pioneer  Two-Year  class  at 
Massachusetts  Agricultural  College.

About  the  Greenhouses 
We  Build 


For  over  half  a  century  we  have  been  building 
greenhouses.  Logically,  then,  we  ought  to 
know  how  greenhouses  should  be  built. 

In  that  fifty  or  more  years  we  have  built  practic- 
ally all  kinds  of  glass  enclosures,  from  garden 
cold-frames  to  greenhouses  that  cover  consider- 
ably over  an  acre.  We  tell  you  these  things  so 
you  may  know  the  scope  of  our  experience. 

It  matters  not  whether  the  house  you  want  be 
large  or  small,  we  can  give  you  a  service  and  a 
value  that  we  think  careful  investigation  will 
prove  cannot  be  equaled. 

We  should  be  glad  to  talk  with  you;  or  write  us 
giving  the  size  of  house  you  require,  so  we  can 
send  you  facts  and  figures.

"It's  a  Gift" 

It  rtally  is,  this  art  of  looking  cool  and  nifty, 
tliesc  hot  sianmer  days.    But  if  s  easily  acquired 

It' s  quite  likely  that  if  you  ask  one  of  these 
spick-and-span  fellows  how  he  does  it  you'  II 
find  that  he' s  wearitig  shirts  and  collars  which 
we  have  professionally  laundered — not  merely 
washed  and  ironed. 

His  linen  has  had  the  benefit  of  a  process 
of  ours  which  closes  the  pores  of  the  fabric, 
strengthens  the  fibres,  and  protects  from  grit 
and  grime. 

And  Willi  shirts  and  collars  such  as  these 
you'll  find  it  an  easy  matter  to  always  look 
your  best. 

fust  send  us  your  bundle  and  we'  II  gladly 
show  you.     Phone  and  our  driver  will  call.
