Who, as adviser has given freely of his \nowledge
and counsel, who, as a real friend has co-op-
erated in all of our activtiies, and who as a
Christian leader has exemplified daily
the ideals of service and sacrifice,

IN PREPARING this edition of the Etonian it has
been the ambition of the staff not only to record in
enduring form the events and activities of the school
year 1928- 1929, but also to present in the art motif the
background of the spirit and ideals of our College as
reflected in the farm life of Lancaster County twenty-five
years ago.

We hail thee, Alma Mater, dear.
As now we sing thy praise.
O let thy walls and storied halls
Resound with endless praise.
CHORUS
We love thy sons so noble,
Thy daughters fair and true.
We love thee ever, oh E. C,
Arid thy colors, Gray and Blue.

Together they proclaim alway.
Thy glory through the land.
As long as breezes round thee blow,

RALPH WIEST SCHLOSSER
President
Pd. B., Eluabethtown College, 1907; A. B., Ursinus College, 1911: A. M.,
Ursinus College, 1912; Student, Bethany Bible School, summer 1915; A. M., Colum-
bia University, 1922; Student, Union Theological Seminary, 1921-1922: completed
Ph. D. residence requirements at Columbia University.
Ralph W. Schlosser, President of Eluabethtown College, is esteemed by its
students and faculty because of his high ideals, his scholarly thought, his magnetic
personality, and his energetic program of advancement and progress.
He is well fitted for the position which he holds because of his close
association with the college both as a student and a teacher. He is able to detect
equally well the needs of the student and the problems of the teacher. He was first
an instructor of the preparatory studies, professor of English, Latin and French, and
finally head of the English Department. In 1922 he became Dean of the College
and, upon the resignation of Dr. Henry K. Ober, in 1928, he was chosen as President
of the College.

A. C. Baugher has been connected with Elizabethtown College as a student, as
a teacher of Geography, as assistant in Chemistry and Physics, and is now Professor
of Chemistry and Physics. He was also Dean of Men and is at present Dean of the
College. His efforts in the Science Department have aided much in its rapid devel-
opment and the maintenance of its high standards. As Dean of the College he is
capably meeting the demands of administration and proving an efficient adviser to
the students in their work. He is vitally interested in the progress of the school
and its student body. Wit, a whole-hearted sincerity, and a spirit of fellowship earn
for him the friendship of the school.

Henry K. Ober, ex-president of Elizabethtown College, is now serving the
Brethren Church of Elizabethtown as its pastor and giving to the students of the
College a spiritual guidance. His association with the young people of the Academy
and College for many years allows him to recognize their needs and problems. His
interest in youth is not only one arising from his church duties but a deeper one
centering on the importance of forming right habits and attitudes for the develop-
ment of a Christian character. The students feel he is a friend of the College and
appreciate his frequent visits among them.

COMMITTEE ON STUDENT WELFARE
Professor A. P. Wenger, Professor Harry Mountjoy, Dean of Men, and Mrs.
McCann, Dean of Women, comprise the Committee on Student Welfare of Eliza-
bethtown College. Its members are so chosen that each phase of college life, with
its individual problems, will be represented. It acts as an advisory group to the
several student government organisations, and to the student councils in their re-
sponsibilities and duties as executors of student regulations.
The committee has proved itself a great aid in the solution of student problems
because of its richer life experience and its thorough understanding of student and
dormitory life. The students appreciate its work and efforts because of the high
Christian ideals which it embodies.

Glass Cpoem
Among the pictures treasured and fan-
That gaily bedeck my Memory's Wall,
Are scenes most rare of College Days,
Those choice reminiscent, best days of all.
As fondly the light of an earlier day
The vision greets — so hallowed and dear,
So quickly is wrought the miracle of change
Bringing distant forms and faces near.
In its depths a lifetime of meaning we see:
Joys we together have known and shared;
In the twilight hush of revery dim
Our hearts in true adoration are bared.
With a step that is buoyant and full of glee
Again we are treading the College green;
Again we are answering the glad hello
Of friends in the old familiar scene.
Again we are hearing with eager hearts
The rich full wisdom of the Past:
From textbook and master seeking to gain
Impressions of new and nobler cast.
O Chapel Hour! What grace the name
Presents before our earthbound eyes,
What echoes, voices, faces loved!
Who knows the magic of the skies?
Those pictures of Memory brightly keep
Ye friends of precious College Days!
Ever shall the Class of Twenty-nine
By song our Alma Mater praise.

The years which are spent in college are the years around which one's entire
future life revolves. It is true that these are the happiest years in one's life and also
true that the deepest and most lasting impressions are made during this period.
In the fall of '25 one of the largest classes in the history of the school chose
Elizabethtown for its Alma Mater. After we were comfortably located in our dorms
and partially initiated into college life, we took up our Freshmen tasks. We organ-
ized in the early part of the fall, choosing Mr. Clarence Frye as president, and "Honor
lies at Labor's Gate" as our motto. At this time we were introduced to our class
adviser, Professor Herr, who always had a keen interest in our class affairs, which
contributed much to the success of our class. The largest function of the year was
the (.lass trip to Valley Forge. Our class banquet and spring outing, which was held
at Prof. Herr's summer cottage at Mt. Gretna, also strengthened our class union.
Our class was somewhat smaller during the Sophomore year. Mr. Galen Kil-
hefner ably performed his duties as president during this year. The most noteworthy
function of the year was the trip to the Sesqui-Centenmal, which we had the priv-
ilege to take. Other socials held at school also strengthened our class spirit.
As Juniors our roll was small but with little attention to this fact we undertook
the largest work of one's college life, publishing the Etonian. We all put forth a
united effort and succeeded in publishing one of the best books ever published. We
wisely chose Mr. Wilbur Cassel, a newcomer into our ranks, as president. During
the year we enjoyed a mid-wmter strawride on a cold, crisp November night, illum-
inated by a large knowing moon. Probably the largest event of the year was the
banquet given in honor of the Seniors, at Stumpf's restaurant at Mt. Joy.
Now we are coming to the top of the ladder. Probably one of the most unique
things about our class is the fact that old Dan Cupid was not cunning enough to
securely lodge any of his arrows in the heart of any one of our members. We re-
elected Mr. Cassel as our president. Many newcomers entered our ranks for their
senior year. On a pleasant November evening Mr. Minnich invitd us to a taffy-pull
at his home. This was the initial social event of the year and certainly was enjoyed
by all. The class banquet was held at Chef's Place, where we ate an abundance ot
chicken and waffle.
Thus we have given you the history of the class and we trust that in doing so
we have strengthened the ties which bound us so firmly together. We do not wish
to say Good-bye, so we'll simply say Adieu.

In the autumn of 1926 thirty-five young hopefuls kissed the home folks good-bye
and started out on the great adventure. Thirty-five gazing "ever higher" to that
field where folks hoed their own row. Soon all became accustomed to college ways
and began to sow the seed for future accomplishments. The crop was bountiful and
we cultivated the fine arts; harrowed the upper classmen in the tug-of-war, volleyball,
basketball, and tennis; planted freshmen on the debating team and in the editor's chair
of the College Times; reaped fun and frolic at our banquet and on our bus trip to
Havre de Grace, and otherwise marketed ourselves as desirable students. Professor
Wenger undertook the task of directing our growth.
Advancing from young shoots to sturdy plants, our Sophomore year was just as
eventful. Guided by the principle of crop rotation we allowed the incoming fresh-
men to reap the victories in the tug of war and basket-ball while we moved on to
other fields. The girls excelled in tennis and debating, and all exhibited a fine caliber
of school work. Fearing that the veneer of a college education would have blotted
out our farm mannerisms, we staged a hobo party in Givler's barn, and also took a
trip over the Gettysburg battlefield and the surrounding country.
This, our Junior year, even though many have departed from the rural school, is
our flowering season. Everyone expended his utmost originality in publishing a suc-
cessful edition of the Etonian. Other interests, both academic, athletic, and social,
claimed our attention. The poverty-stricken group that gathered down on the farm
all agreed that our college experiences were rich and varied.
Even though in experience the horn of plenty has been extended to us, we are
looking forward to a last year, when we shall gather in the fruits of our labors for
use in our chosen vocations.

"Baker" — Has anyone seen Baker?
Tell her to hurry, please. She is
wanted on first floor by a mischievous
dark-cyed senior. How many times
have the folks on second floor heard
that cry?
Do we know her, that blonde M ss
from Mt. Joy? We can't miss hei !
Energy enough to play a keen bas-
ketball game and dance all night, yet
"Eddie" seems almost listless when she
enters the class room.
She gets along with her classes very
well, but how she does it is a con-
tinuous source of wonderment to her
classmates for she can rarely be caught
studying.
"Baker" attended Lebanon Valley
College her Freshman Year. We are
glad she decided to come to E'town.
This young person won't give us
much information about herself, but
we know that she has definitely de-
cided not to let the teaching profes-
sion possess her services always. Fur
her we would prophesy a future filled
with dreams and happy living, for
she's not the kind to dream alone. As
our friend and classmate we wish her
the best of life throughout the Com-
ing Years.
ANNA BISHOP
EuZABETHTOWN. Pa.
Anna Mae Bishop is one of our
girls who diets, then gives up in de-
spair— but whether the avoirdupois is
plus or minus, we love her just the
same.
She is always in for fun, whether
school work is piled up or not. Don't
misunderstand, for Anna Mae always
finishes it, especially Greek, unless she
is preparing for a debate.
Would you think that this sweet, in-
nocent looking lassie has a dual per-
sonality? Of course, you wouldn't, but
we want to warn you that she has.
She tries her best to make us believe
that she is quiet and serious but we
got some "inside information" on the
person in question and we find outside
of school that she is really full of fun
and mischief and is the clown of the
"gang."
Anna Mae is one of the girls whom
we hear very little about at school be-
cause she spends so little of her time
here with us. As soon as classes are
over, away she goes for she is a day
student.
We often wonder if she will remain
in the teaching profession or r;sk the
matrimonial highway.

Vice President of Class (1. 3), Class
Social Committee ( 1, 3), Y. M. C. A.
Cabinet (3), School Social Committee
(3), Treasurer and Asst. Manager of
Debate (3). Asst. Basketball Manager
(3), Advertising Manager of Etonian
(3).
Behold the "Chief Assistant." Har-
old holds the record when it comes to
being an assistant, for his is assistant
this and assistant that; in fact, he is
assistant manager, or vice-chairman of
about everything on the hill. The
reason for this is very clear, "Eb" is
a worker. It is often said that the
leader of a group always gets the
credit and his assistant does the work.
This past year Ebersole certainly has
done his share. In all of his activ-
ities from chairman of the "Y" Mo-
tion Picture Committee to Advertis-
ing Manager of the Etonian, he has
always put his best into the work, and
deserves much credit.
But "Eb" does not let his work
take the joy out of life, for he is al-
ways happy. His pleasant smile is
well known on the campus; in fact, so
well that he has been christened
"Sonny Boy" by some of the stud
ents. Even his one great trouble of
the year could not remove this fam-
ous smile. Oh. yes. "Eb" had trou-
ble, his roommates, ask him.
MABEL ESHELMAN
Elizabethtown. Pa.
"No end to fun and jollity" is Mi-
bel's slogan, from morn till night.
She is always the life and spirit of
the crowd; just ask any of the day
students. Does this lady slight her
lessons with all this? Guess again.
When it comes to ideas and sug-
gestions of all types, Mabel surely
ranks high.
She is a good sport and everyone
likes her. Those who know her best
know her brother also, for she has
placed him on her shrine of worship.
We are overjoyed that you turned
your back on the little red school
house and used such good judgment
in joining our class. We want you to
know that without you our class could
not have been called complete.
People have been known to speak
of Mabel as reserved, but have you
ever wandered into the Day Students
Room during Mabel's lucid intervals?
Loyal in her friendship, faithful to hei
undertakings, and witty of speech, her
associates have learned to treasure hcr
tnendship as one of the bright spots
in their rremory of College Hill.

"The best portion of a good man's
life, his little, nameless, unremembercd
acts."
When we want a man with a head
for business methods, we seek "Esh."
He early established his reputation by
his ability as Business Manager of
"The Etonian." He has won laurels
for E. C. as well as for himself in de-
bating. His rebuttal speeches make
all sit up and take notice. It is rare
to find a man in whom are so well
blended ability and dependability —
but here he is — and for him we pre-
dict the top round of the ladder of
success in business life. His chief aim
is to become a lawyer. He is the
busiest person who always finds time
in which to do a kind act for some
one. No favor is too large or too
small to be asked of him. Would that
more of us had some of his sterling
qualities. As president of the class,
he steered us through our many dil-
ficulties and we appreciate his work
and spirit he always showed. Here is
a secret. "Ladies are his specialty."

Marion, after teaching one year,
came to E. C. to pursue the course in
Liberal Arts. She is majoring in lit-
erature. However, even though you
may not believe it, not all Marion's
time is spent in studying. She spends
some time in the office, a little in talk-
ing, then she is a member of Student
Council, and at other times she is at-
tending committee meetings, trying to
decide how the next social can be made
as great a success as the previous.
Marion is one of the best known
girls at school. All the freshmen met
her the opening day at the Get-Ac-
quainted social, where, with the aid of
another person, she introduced the up-
per classmen.
She seems to be attracted by the
library, where she may be seen every
evening, for she is Professor Rose's as-
sistant. There, if you have any diffi-
culty and you make your wishes known,
she will endeavor to assist you in solv-
ing it. You might think she is a very
sober miss, but after the library is
closed, oh, what a change!
Lest we forget, Marion is an excel-
lent Bible student, interested especially
in the study of "Noahs."

"Henry" had received her Standard
Certificate last year, but, to our good
fortune, she decided to return and
finish with our class. An energetic,
enthusiastic, open-minded girl — it takes
Ruth to successfully formulate the
plans for some program. She dem-
onstrated this in the manner in which
she executed the plans for the Y. W.
C. A. program this year. Never did
she let the girls lose sight of that radio
to be.
Ruth has won honor for her class
not 'inly on the athletic field, but on
the debating floor, and as our "song-
bird."
Dormitory life cannot be monoton-
ous with her around for there arc too
many little pranks and mysteries which
she can explain, if she will.
However. often over week-ends
"Henry" is not on the "dorm" but out
with the volunteers doing deputation
work.
In brief, "Henry" is a four-square
girl, and all success to her in her
teaching career.
C. F. JENKINS
22 S. 16th St., Harrisbvrc. Pa.
Mr. Jenkins, our representative from
Harnsburg. entered the class the sec-
ond semester of our freshman year. He
is not seen very much on "College
Hill" since he commutes. However,
we feel he has a most excellent reason
for commuting. The reason — he, un-
like his class-mates, had the courage to
abandon "this single strife" and with
his wife has established a happy home.
Mr. Jenkins is an ideal student, a
thinker, always making distinct contri-
butions in our class discussions.
We believe he must, at some time or
other, have memorized the Boy Scout
Law, for he surely lives by it. We all
should like to be Boy Scouts, if he
were Scoutmaster.
However, he is a Scoutmaster in a
higher sense. His congeniality, his
courtesy, his dignity, his intellect, his
culture, his sincerity, blend admirably
in bestowing to him a personality
which well fits him for his chosen
work, the ministry.

I. Wayne Keller, Jr. Cast your
optics on this. The all-around man
of E-town College. As a journalist, a
debater, a public speaker and a stu-
dent, "Ike" has few peers. His ver-
satility is even sufficiently extensive to
comprehend efficiency in the sphere of
athletics. His determination was well
displayed on the line of E-town's dra-
matic and unique football combina-
tion. Nothing but the highest ex-
pectations accompany any thought of
our editor's future. Nevertheless, we
have some misgivings. "Ike" be-
lieves in the Biblical injunction, that
it is not well for a man to live alone.
His college life has been one of
steady descension. As a Freshman he
roomed on the third floor of Fairview
Apartments. As a Junior he occupied
a room on the second floor. With the
acquisition of a June bride, we believe
that Keller will reside on the first floor
of these apartments.
"Ike!" we extend to you best wishes
for a happy married life and a most
successful career in the business world.
HOWARD A. KERR
McVeytown, Pa.
Baseball Team (2), Vice President
of Class (2), Manager of College Store
(2).
"Kerr" is one of the late members
of our class, having been on the roll
only since the beginning of the second
semester. However, this is only his
second year of college work, so you
see he is really a faster worker than
his lellow-classmates.
He is our man of science. If you
are looking for him, you will be di-
rected to the "lab," where you will
usually find him absorbed in dissecting
anything from worms to human na-
ture.
"Kerr" also spends his time in the
College Store, where he has learned
the art of handing out Polar Pies,
notebooks, and bills.
In that manner Kerr's day is em-
ployed. But we have not touched
upon the evening. It is then that
"Kerr" and "Doc" 'put their heads to-
gether.' Soon there is a burst ot
laughter in the hall and all the fol-
lows congregate. These two con-
spirators then have the best time
laughing to themselves.
"Kerr" does not expect to return to
E. C. next year, but the best wishes
of the class go with him as he enters
the medical school. The class of 1930
will not forget its own "M. D."

How happy we are that this digni-

with ours for he is one of our very
best all around classmates, and a stu-

is one of those dependable young men
who is always a worthy example for
the rest of us. He has exceptionally
high ideals and continually strives, by
example and precept, to raise the
moral and religious standards of those
with whom he associates. Not only is
Galen very industrious intellectually
but he is very active religiously. He
is an able minister, and a very fine
chorister, noted for his melodious bass
voice. He is the President of the
Student Volunteers. Galen is a star
player in basketball and tennis. His
held goals in basketball make any boy
envious. His sharp cuts in tennis are
hard to beat. Galen spent a yeat
working in the Ephrata National Bank.
He is very witty and does his share of
teasing. In social activities he is quite
successful, especially with the opposite
sex. It is not necessary to forecast
this man's future. Our best wishes go
with you, Galen.

"And I must work! Oh!
What a waste of time."
When you hear an uneven step in
the hall you know it's Sam. This
shuffling of feet is to warn Professoi
Rose that he is on his way. He is one
of the Librarian's favorite disturbers
of the peace in the store house of
knowledge. He has been with us only
a year, having taken his work else-
where. Last year you could have
found "Sam" moulding the youths of
Middletown. Sam always has a bright
smile for everyone. But then, too,
folks of Sam's size are always jolly.
Sam does not believe in dieting. He
has a keen sense of humor and his
hearty laugh is enjoyed by all. La-
dies are a part of his program,
Wherever you go and whatever you
do, joy and success to you, Sam.
P. S. — We wonder just what forces
would be required to keep Sam on the

Ellis Reber. Here is our young, fu-
ture, scientific agriculturalist. It is
Ellis' greatest ambition to educate
our present-day farmers to use more
scientific methods to feed the future
generations. One walking through the
halls of Fairview Apartments during
the evening can see a group gathered
together in one of the rooms, and upon
investigation find that Ellis is lectur-
ing on the subject: "How to produce
the best crop of raspberries at the least
expense." But the greatest difficulty is
that in order to understand what his
"line" is all about, one must carry a
pocket-dictionary.
But we predict that Ellis would
make a better philosopher than a
farmer, and feel that it will be neces-
sary for Webster to revise his present
dictionary in order to avoid the com-
petition of Mr. Reber.
We, the class of '30, are sure that
Ellis will be successful in anything that
he attempts because of the determina-
tion he has in all his undertakings.

Here's Norman, the energetic young
man who comes to us from Berks
County. He is one of the all-around
students on college hill.
When it comes to optimism the en-
tire student body unites in handing
the laurels to Norman. No matter
what the problem or task he is al-
ways ready to help with a cheerful
smile.
"Norm's choice of words and his
splendid delivery have won for him a
place on the debating team and also
secured first place for him in the ora-
torical contest. He is one of the
star track men. His Dersistent effort
and steady training always brings vic-
tory for him.
These are not all of his attributes:
in the dramatic cantata given in the
Spring he showed a combination of
musical and dramatic talent. Truly
one must say, "Who comes here, 'A
Daniel'?"
This fine gentleman certainly is a
great asset to the class of '30. We
wish him the best of success and hope
that as he meets opportunities he will
make them all realities.

"To love and be loved is the great
happiness of existence," is Irene's
motto.
"Royer" is one of the most elusive
girls in the College. You may pursue
her over the campus and in Com-
mercial Hall and when at last you
think you have captured her, behold,
she is auto-riding with Hiram.
Through her three years on College
Hill she has been very quiet but also
active. She is our girls' champion ten-
nis player.
Irene, silent as to herself and what
she does is rather a relief from the
ever-bubbling confidence of most girls
but, strange to say, that same silence
seems to assure us of her willingness
to listen to our ravings.
Irene rates a high I-Q, and so, ll
measurements mean anything, she
should be a wonderful teacher.

"Come on, fellows." When Clyde
says this it means that something is
going to be done, for when it comes
to a question of arousing school spirit
or of carrying out a project, just leave
it to him. Besides pulling high marks
in his classes, he finds time to partic-
ipate whole heartedly in extra-curric-
ular activities. We fear our socials
would have been a failure had Clyde
not pulled us safely through.
He is a man of great experience, as
he has taught and also attended Mil-
lersville State Teachers' College.
Wenger has been invaluable to our
basketball team. He is an all-around
athlete and is always on the firing line
when called upon to do his bit for
Old E. C.
When anyone speaks of a tea room
he always mentions "The Fifth Ave-

In the social world he is a "Beau

This young man came from Juniata
College, where he gained much fame
as an athlete. E. C. thought it best
to claim an Elizabethtown boy as
theirs. He is very energetic and has
accomplished much in securing ath-
letics at E'town. "Red," as we better
know him, is always securing yells
from the bleachers when a game is be-
ing played. He gained much favor as
a tennis champion while at Juniata.
One morning, in Chapel, one of the
Professors said, "Some couples seem
to be making progress." "Red" turned
to Bower and said earnestly, "Do you
think he means me?" In the short
t.'me he has been with us, he has made
his presence felt. His career is un-
settled. Matrimony and ease — or
work, whatever it may be, "Red" will
make good, for he is a "fighter." The
manner in which he led the fellows in
their campaign for football as a rec-
ognized sport oi the college shows
that he is not afraid of opposition, and
the way in which he led the "B13"
through the season, despite all ob-
stacles, proved he is not easily stopped.
Our best wishes go with you. "Red."

"Do you hear that noise?" That's
Bill, look, he's winding up the watch

were cold and dreary, and everyone
was feeling blue, Bill always drove
away the gloom, by springing one of
his funny stories just at the psycho-
logical moment. Results: Everyone
laughing and the sun shining. All
who know Bill agree that he is a
pretty level-headed sort of chap. Just
walk down Market Street and observe
the Central Cut Rate Drug Store, Bill
runs that and it spells success for him.
He has such an unique way of adver-
tising his goods. Bill is frequently
seen with a little miss from Harris-
burg; now we know why he says it
is difficult for him to study. Bill also
took some work at Franklin and Mar-
shal College but decided to join our
class. We wish you the best. Bill, in
anything you pursue.

This little lassie comes from the City
of "Brotherly Love." "Our class wel-

spice of life," seems to be Helen's
creed for she was not satisfied to re-

She has attended Lebanon Valley Col-

is always ready to have a good time
with someone. If you want to hear a
good story ask her to tell you all about
the little "Whippet" she runs up the
hills and down. Helen is never with-
out friends; indeed, she has so many
boy friends she finds it advisable to
keep a date book so as matters do
not become confused. We do not
know much of Helen's plans, but
whatever she may do, the best wishes
of the class go with her.

A little while ago, in fact, it was September, 192.S, a group of studen'.s, bewild-
ered and confused, entered Elizabethtown College to begin liie as freshmen and sere
opportunities offered us. We wandered and wondered, not hopelessly, but eagerly,
just what we should enjoy, acquire and contribute to life among our associates and
colleagues. Here we found congenial classmates, always ready to co-operate, an ever-
willing and interesting faculty, who helped us to become orientated to the manners,
modes of life and scenery of college.
After things grew clearer around us we began to indulge in the search for truth,
facts and knowledge. We had moments of drudgery, criticism, and adversity, which,
however, seemed to agree with our constitutions, brace our nerves, and call out the
treasures of our minds. In our environment we caught glimpses of great riches, we
groped and reached for them, sometimes grasping and again just breathing their
essence, but always receiving the desire to see, learn, and know, that we might be
filled with the light of intelligence and enrich our concepts to a larger degree.
In a fleeting glance backward over our Freshman year we notice a few high sjjots.
We entered with fifty members, and after we had become acquainted with our class-
mates and others on College Hill, the first important event was the organization of
our class. Benjamin Hoffman was chosen as president, and fulfilled the duties of his
office efficiently and capably. We chose as our motto, "No victory without labor."
Purple and white were decided upon as the class colors and the White American
Beauty Rose was chosen as the class flower. We retain vivid memories of the tug-
of-war and the Freshman social. In basket-ball our girls won the intra-mural cham-
pionship, and the boys had a very successful season.
And now we are no longer freshmen but have risen to distinction, where we
smile sympathetically at the behavior, nicety, frolic and antics of a young and verdant
group of students. We have succeeded in becoming a part of the more elect and
learned.
In this, our sophomore year, we elected Carl Zeigler, a real statesman, to the
presidency, Jesse Woodward, willing and enthusiastic, as secretary, and Gertrude
Madeira, trustworthy and capable, as treasurer. Various committees were appointed
by the president to function in social, athletic, and literary activities. We have not
been disappointed in our officers and appointed committees, for they are quite alert:,
and grasp every opportunity to add zest, prestige and enlightenment to all activities
of the school calendar.
Activity is the basis of youthful vigor and sophomore blood always shows a
means of asserting itself in all forms of healthful mental and physical expression.
In major sports, games, and contests, sophomores show their confidence, skill,
enthusiasm, quick wit, and fine spirit.
[61]

Socially we are never lacking. Our social committee is exceptionally fond of
desirably entertaining in the form of socials and banquets, which are never without
merriment, gaiety, splendid toasts and delicious food. In the jovial and congenial
atmosphere of these functions and gatherings we find true, sincere, lively and inter-
esting fellowship and association.
Since our class organization we have observed sincere interest, splendid guidance,
excellent counsel and a fine sense of humor in the well-liked and indispensable per-
sonality of our class advisor, Prof. H. H. Nye.
The class of '3 1 looks back and reviews with pleasure the life it has lived here
on the hill and looks forward into the future with hope and anticipation of bigger
and better success and enjoyment in the excellent things which exist for all.

The authorities of Elizabethtown College might well have named the first fresh-
man of the class of '32, Gad, and added Leah's oft-repeated phrase, "Lo, a troop
comethP For on the day of enrollment, the offices were filled with spirited young
people who were ready to begin the life which, they formerly had lived in dreams.
The organization of the Freshman class was effected on September 11, 1928,
under the direction of our class adviser, Professor Baugher, and the officers for the
year were elected. From this time there seemed to be more order in the freshman
ranks, and that class spirit and power which result from efficient organization. The
social, constitution, and athletic committees were appointed by the president in order
to accomplish more thoroughly the business of the class.
By October the green of the campus was almost obscured by the artificial verdure
imposed upon the freshmen by the wise and mighty sophomores. Tribunals com-
posed of upper-classmen were immediately organized to enforce "the wearing of the
green." The delinquents who failed to wear the necessary badges of honor were
soon made conspicuous by the addition of bricks, signs, infant apparel, and significant
limps. And did we enjoy it? Yea! We would not think of depriving the next
freshman class of the experience.
The autumn days went by with the freshmen under complete subordination to
the powers that be, until, along about Thanksgiving time, there came a day cold
enough for the annual tug-of-war, which is fast becoming a tradition at Elizabeth-
town College. The Freshman confidence was shown by the doffing of dinks and
green ribbons before the tug had really begun. The shores of the lake were crowded
with enthusiastic rooters who did much to encourage the brawny representatives
of the competing classes. The freshman confidence was not misplaced, for after a
few minutes of keen competition, the twelve sophomores "broke the ice" and plowed
through the frigid waters, struggling helplessly against the power of the twelve
sturdy freshmn. Valor was not without reward, for the most obnoxious of the
regulations were automatically removed as a result of the freshman victory. A
jubilant shout arose from seventy throats as the freshmen rushed in to the bountiful
Thanksgiving dinner, devoid of all symbols of their enforced subordination.
We feel that this year has meant much to us and to the college. Not only has
this freshman class surpassed all preceding classes in force of numbers, but it has
also contributed unusually much to the life of the college in the fields of scholarship
and athletics. The class includes a large number of honor students from high schools
all over the State; students who will probably do much to uphold the high standard
of scholarship recently set by Elizabethtown College. It is a source of much pride
to the Freshman class that it ranks above all others in its number of star athletes on
the varsity toot hall and basket-ball squads. We hope next year to make even greater
contributions to the name and fame of our dear Alma Mater.

Alumni
<t3X&ZSX£S4&K&<Bm!
Al
umni
Gift;
Just as a family is known by its children, so a college is known by its a'umni.
Their loyalty to their Alma Mater is a measure of what she has meant in their lives.
The success of many schools has been made possible because of her graduates who
had become successful in their vocations and out of their means had contributed to
the school that had helped to prepare them for life. The older a school is, the larger
its alumni association becomes and the greater the proportion of those who have
reached their maximum earning power.
We are appreciative of the fact that our school is comparatively young, its group
of alumni small, and of these many are just now becoming established in then-
businesses and professions. But in spite of all these limiting factors their gifts to the
school stand out as a tribute to their appreciation of their Alma Mater and to their
desire that she shall become an institution of increased usefulness.
Athletic Field — The first project of considerable size sponsored by the Alumni
was the purchase of a twenty-nine acre tract of land adjoining the original college
campus. This increased the campus to about fifty acres, and laid the foundations
for a number of future improvements.
Lake Pracida — The first large improvement upon the Alumni purchase was the
making of an artificial lake. The northwestern corner of the campus was rather low,
with a small natural water supply. With the help of the students a concrete wall
was built parallel to the road, to block the water flowing across the campus. Lake
Placida has an area of nearly four acres and the students who have enjoyed boating
upon it during the warmer months of school and skating on its ice in winter feel
grateful to the Alumni for this valuable gift to the college. As the trees and shrub-
bery grow up around the lake we can expect that it will become within a few years
one of the most beautiful parts of the campus.
New Athletic Field — During the summer of 1926 a part of the Alumni tract was
graded with a steam shovel. The land had been fairly level and with a comparatively
small amount of work was transferred into a beautiful athletic field. On this graded
land is a quarter mile running track, a baseball diamond, jumping pits, and a soccer
field. This improvement was a big step in providing for the recreation of the student
body.
The Gymnasium — Those who have been students of the college in former years
remember the old "gym" in the basement of Memorial Hall. And those who played
basketball there, shooting the ball against the ceiling, and bumping into the posts,
eagerly looked forward to the time when Elizabethtown College would have a gym-
nasium which they could show their friends without any temptation to apologize.
At last the gymnasium which seemed so far in the future has become a reality
and we almost feel like pinching ourselves to see whether or not we are really awake.
It is situated on the Alumni land and was paid for, not entirely but in large part, by
the Alumni of the college. The building is probably the most beautiful of the five
on the campus and the inside is no less attractive than the outside. It offers to the
school splendid facilities for inter-collegiate and intra-mural basketball. This new
building has a large stage and a seating capacity of at least a thousand. As an audi-
torium it will for many years meet our needs in providing a place to hold school
functions and programs of various kinds.
The students are deeply indebted to the folks who have made these additions
to the school equipment possible, and we hope that as a result of our Alumni's in-
terest in the growth of the college, our school may continue to serve a larger number
of people in an increasingly better way.

County Clubs
•
We are living in the day of family reunions. The principle which causes people
to enjoy an opportunity of spending a day with their kin works just as truly in a
college family. Partly in recognition of this desire to meet old school-mates and
partly to keep the Alumni and former students more intimately related to the school
a movement has been set afoot to organize county club units of the Alumni Associa-
tion. Up to the present time three units have been organized — in Lancaster, Lebanon
and York Counties. Several more are being planned and will probably be effected
within the next few years.
The Lancaster County Club was the first of its kind and was organized m No-
vember, 1927, at a meeting held in the Hotel Brunswick during the week of county
teachers' institute. This last November the first anniversary was celebrated at the
Hotel Weber. Those present included faculty membrs, alumni, former students, and
several of this year's student group. Throughout the evening a splendid spirit pre-
vailed and the opportunity of meeting school acquaintances, coupled with an ex-
change of thoughts in the interest of their Alma Mater, well repaid all those who
had the privilege of attending the banquet. A reorganization was effected and the
officers elected to serve during this year are:
President — C. H. Royer, '25
Vice President — S. S. Wenger, '27
Secretary — Anna Bull, '27
Treasurer — Raymond F. Brubaker, '27
The Lebanon County Club was the second to organize. Their first meeting was
was held at Mover's Restaurant, in Lebanon, and was attended by about thirty-five
alumni, former students and faculty members. Those who were present enjoyed the
splendid spirit of the meeting and decided to hold a similar meeting the following
year. As the years go on the alumni and students who find positions in the vicinity
of Lebanon will enjoy these annual meetings of the Lebanon County unit of county
clubs. The officers elected for the first year are:
President — Vera R. Hackman, '25
Vice President — Mary (Francis) Beckley, '18
Secretary-Treasurer — Ethel M. B. Wenger, '24
Y'ork County — The first county club organized in southern Pennsylvania consists
of those who live in the York region. Approximately fifty-five attended the first
meeting, which was held in the dining hall of the York Y. M. C. A. Among those
present were several of the older students who had been at Elizabethtown a number
of years ago. The first meeting of the York unit was very interesting and we arc-
sure that their meetings in future years will continue to prove occasions of fellowship
and inspiration. The York County Club chose for their officers:
President — Harrison M. Arnold, '2^
Secretary — Ursula A. Ernst, '27
Treasurer — Eli S. Keeny, '27

There are loyal hearts, there are spirits brave,
There are souls that are pure and true;
Then give to the world the best you have,
And the best will come bac\ to you.
Give love, and love to your heart will flow,
A strength in your utmost need;
Have faith, and a score of hearts will show
Then faith in your word and deed.
For life is the mirror of \ing and slave.
Tis just what you are and do;
Then give to the world the best you have,
And the best will come bac\ to you.

College Bulletin
The College publishes four bulletins during each year, — the Summer Term Bul-
letin, the College Bulletin, the Alumni Register, and the Bible Institute Bulletin.
The Summer Term Bulletin includes a list of faculty members for the summer
and a description of the curriculum and courses of instruction offered during this
session of the school year. This course of six weeks is of benefit to teachers wanting
to take advance work and to students who desire to take regular work for graduation.
The College Bulletin is a complete catalogue of all important facts in reference to
the main term of the school year. Beside giving the calendar for the important events
of the following year and the names and qualifications of faculty members, it gives
in detail the outline and description of courses in education, in liberal arts, in science,
in economics, and in commercial education. Explanations of scholarships and aids for
students are given, the principles and needs of Elisabethtown College are emphasized,
and such student interests as debating, contests, student associations, and student vol-
unteers are discussed. A complete register of students of the previous year is given.
The students are listed under several heads, — regular college students, special college
students, those taking voice, piano, and extension work, and those enrolled in sum-
mer term, in spring normal term, and in Bible Extension work. The College has the
power to confer the following degrees: Bachelor of Arts in Education, Bachelor of
Arts in Liberal Arts, Bachelor of Science in Pure Science, Bachelor of Science in
Economics, and Bachelor of Science in Commercial Education.
The Alumni Register includes items of interest to alumni. It gives the names,
present occupations, and present addresses of graduates of the institution.
The Bible Institute Bulletin outlines the program for the week of the Bible In-
stitute held during the second week of January of each year. In it are given the aims
and purposes of the College in putting on a week of Bible instruction, for the College
believes that spiritual development is a vital necessity in true education for service.

This group did not appear very often on public programs, but at the times of
their appearances they presented selections of the highest type, which real music-lovers
enjoy. In November they rendered a cantata entitled, "The Village Blacksmith,
which was Longfellow's thought put into music. This cantata was repeated during
the Bible Institute program. In December the chorus presented a Christmas cantata
entitled, "The Greatest Gift." In the spring of the year they gave their dramatic
cantata, which featured fourteen soloists, the rest of the group joining in the various
chorus renditions. The story of Belshazsar, taken from the Bible, was portrayed very
effectively. We can say in the words of Charles W. Landon: "Music is God's best
gift to man, the only art of heaven given to earth, the only art of earth that we take
to heaven. But music ,like all our gifts, is given us in the germ. It is for us to unfold
and develop it by instruction and cultivation."

During the school year 1926-1927 five of the men who were good friends decided
that there should be some means by which the friendships formed at college could
be perpetuated. They realized that the Alumni Associations and Clubs did this to
a certain degree, but that there was nothing to especially take care of the small
groups which are to be found in any college. So, desiring that their group should
not become separated upon graduation, they formed a club, which they called the
Candles. It was just an informal affair, but the group held several social functions
and the idea became firmly imbedded in their minds that the organization was good,
and they decided that those who would return the next year should continue it.
These five men were Arthur Eshelman, '27, Arthur Miller, '28, Walter Thome, '29,
Mark Kreider, 'JO, and I. Wayne Keller, '30. During the second year the member-
ship was increased and a more permanent organization effected. The following
members were elected during the school year 1927-28: Richard Jacobs, '30, Rich-
ard Strayer, '31, Benjamin Hoffman, '31, Walter Eshelman, '30, Paul Eshelman, '29,
James Miller, '28, and Howard Kerr, '31. During the past school year the group
felt that they would like to make the club really permanent and be recognized as
a regular school organization. A constitution was drawn up by the officers,
I. Wayne Keller, president, and Walter Eshelman, secretary. This was presented
to the faculty with a request for recognition, but at the time of this writing no
action had been taken. Five members and four pledges were elected during the
year. They are Trostle Crouthamel, Ellis Reber, Harry Shonk, Harold Ebersole,
Warren Angstadt, regular members; and Henry Hackman, Ammon Gibble, Lester
Ketterling, and Marvin Chapman, pledges.

The interest manifested in the Student Volunteer Group shows the great de
sire for spiritual growth and development. Without doubt the members of this
group desire to be influential in the promotion of the Kingdom of God on "College
Hill."
Their work is not only that of being used in individual service on the "Hill," but
also that of sending small visiting groups to various churches and rendering programs
which they feel encourage and promote spiritual growth.
In the weekly meetings of this group they spend one evening in the form of
discussion conducted by a member of their own group, another evening in a devo-
tional period, and a third evening in having a member of the Faculty speak to them
on some subject of vital interest. During the week of Bible Institute this group had
the rare privilege of having three of the Institute speakers address them at special
meetings called throughout the week. Those who presented inspiring messages were
A. C. Wieand, President of Bethany Bible School, and two returned Missionaries
from India, Elsie Shickel and Elder J. M. Blough.
The Volunteers were represented at the Twenty-fourth Annual Student Mision-
ary Conference of Eastern Pennsylvania and New Jersey, held in March, at Prince-
ton, New Jersey. Speakers from five different nations were there with stirring mes-
sages. The theme of the Conference was "The Christian Message."
[94]
Bible Institute
An outstanding week for both students and patrons of Elizabethtown College is
that of Bible Institute. This year it was opened on Sunday, January 1 3, with an in-
spiring sermon by A. C. Wieand, President of Bethany Bible Sehool, and closed on
Sunday, January 20th, with a heart -stirring message by Elsie Shickel, a returned mis-
sionary from the India Field.
A very prominent speaker at this Institute was Elder M. J. Brougher, who at
present is pastor of the Greensburg Church, m Pennsylvania. He presented daily
talks on "Evangelism," and preached powerful sermons on these subjects: "What Is
Sin?", "The Remedy For Sin," and "The Transforming Power of Christ." Other
instructors were Elder J. M. Blough, a missionary to India; Elder Minor C. Myers,
returned missionary from China; Mrs. S. N. McCann, returned missionary from
India; Elder H. K. Ober, Pastor of the Elisabethtown Church, and Elder H. H. Nye,
a member of the General Mission Board. Dr. C. C. Ellis, Vice-President of Juniata
College, was the main speaker on the Saturday program. The outstanding themes
of the Saturday programs were: Christian Education of Youth," "Religion In Our
Colleges," and "Our Youth Problem." Dr. Ellis addressed the Institute on the sub-
jects: Cultivating Conviction" and "The Youth Movement — New and Old." On
Sunday afternoon "The Unfinished Task in India" was discussed by a volunteer, by
a member of the Mission Board, and by a Missionary.
An important feature of this year's Bible Institute was the amount of special
music. Choruses from East Fairview, Chicques, West Green Tree, Lebanon, Little
Swatara, Myerstown, York, and Codorus, participated. The Acapella Male Chorus
and various College groups also rendered special music. These programs were high
mountain peaks in the lives of not only the students, but also the patrons and
friends, who, by their frequent attendance, showed their interest and appreciation.
Religious Activities On The "Hill"
In the life of every individual there is a feeling of some supreme being. To each
individual comes a time when evil is sin and good deeds are heavenly. This is only
realised when the soul comes in close contact with its Maker. The Master has a plan
for each person, and as the students spend their time on the Hill they cannot help but
feel the greatness and goodness of God and, therefore, express their deep gratitude by
worshiping the Master in spirit and in truth. The persons who can look out of their
windows at nature in its fullness and see back of it all the hand of God are the only
ones who really receive joy in life. This is the Christian's joy and creates such an
attitude of reverence that when they pray they are truly giving adoration to the
Heavenly Father.
During the year quite a number of vesper services were held on the campus, which
created a very reverent atmosphere among the majority of the student body. Especially
in the Spring these services were enjoyed very much by Christ's closest followers.
[95]
On the dormitory evening hall prayer meetings were held. They were short, hut
were a wonderful means of uniting the students in Christian fellowship and living.
Every two weeks church services were held in the college chapel on Sunday even-
ings. Preceding the sermon a Christian Workers' meeting was conducted hy the
students. This is a splendid experience for young people who are building life habits.
Each student is required to attend church services each Sunday at the church of their
choice. This is a splendid standard for the school, which certainly influences young
lives in the right path. It is the training for the building of a stronger future in the
Church of Jesus Christ.
A mid-week prayer meeting is held in chapel every week, which also is a strong
religious agent on the Hill. These services were conducted in various ways, just as the
one in charge decided. Students and faculty members served as leaders and arranged
the programs. Often times they had students to speak or a faculty member to give
a short address. Special music was frequently rendered which added to the deep
meaning of the meeting.
Every morning services were conducted in the chapel, which brought the entire
student body together in worship. Special music was rendered twice a week during
the last semester. This added to the services. It was the general rule for a faculty
member to address the student body and conduct the devotional exercises; but when-
ever visiting ministers appeared on the campus they led the devotions. Dr. Ober
conducted the exercises once a week. The school always welcomed him with his
sincere messages and his deep interest in the young people. A special program was
rendered for most of the holidays. These programs showed the significant meanings
of the various holidays and also gave thoughts which would lead to a deeper ap-
preciation.
The school was very much pleased to have the Manchester College singers present
a pleasing program one morning. The program was enjoyed by all and was a means
of bringing the sister colleges closer together.
The religious activities of Elizabethtown College are a great influence for the
students, and surely an education is never complete unless one has a knowledge of the
Bible and lives close to the Master, giving in His service each moment of his life.
When all is said and done, the higher things are the more important. Truly many,
if not all, the students can say with Paul: "I press toward the mark for the prize
of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus."

CONVOCATION
The opening day, September 4, 1928, marked a new event in the history of
Eluabethtown College. Students and patrons assembled in the college chapel to at-
tend the Convocation exercises. Some of the special features on the program con-
sisted of addresses by prominent men of the town and also by Rev. S. Z. Sharp,
D. D., nearly 93 years of age, of Frutina, Colorado, who was visiting in this section
of the country. It was a rare treat for us to hear this great educator. The College
Male Quartet rendered special music. The Chamber of Commerce and ministers
from town were present, and members of these groups also spoke.
In the evening a campus luncheon was served, which was enjoyed very much.
From here all went to the Chapel, where everybody became better acquainted. The
"'Big Brothers" and "Big Sisters," who are former students, introduced their "Little
Brothers" and "Little Sisters," the new students. Games were played, music was
furnished by one of the Ladies' Quartettes and speeches were given by the new dean
of men, Prof. Harry Mountjoy and Dr. S. Z. Sharp. Before bidding good-night to
the new acquaintances all were served with refreshments.
GET-ACQUAINTED SOCIAL
This social was held on the second evening of school. Lunch was served on the
campus, after which we assembled for vesper services, which were conducted by Dr.
H. K. Ober. After this inspiring meeting the student body was divided into four
groups, which went to visit the professors. The schedule was so arranged that each
group would arrive at the various homes at different times. The homes visited were
those of Professors Schlosser, Herr, Nye and Wenger. Other faculty members were
distributed in the various homes, thus making it possible for the students to meet the
entire faculty. We were entertained by playing games and engaging in discussions.
Each group received delicious refreshments at the last home visited.

FALL OUTING
On a lovely autumn day, when nature was tinging the outdoor life, the student
body and faculty journeyed to the Conewago Hills, to participate in their fall outing.
It was a delightful day and while the large group was playing games the social com-
mittee started a bon-fire and arranged the dinner, which everyone enjoyed.
During the day hikes were taken and others engaged in pitching quoits, taking
snapshots and lounging around. All arrived on campus safely, though very fatigued
with pleasant recollections of "A Perfect Day."

HALLOWE'EN SOCIAL
The chapel was decorated with gifts of nature to portray a place of ghosts. The
students assembled in this room and, amid the rustling of the leaves, the judges chose
the ones who were most uniquely dressed. From here they traveled to the dining
room where a very delightful meal was awaiting them. During the stay in the dining
room quite a number of toasts were given and also readings. The dining room was
decorated in rich colors for the season.
After the meal all went back to the chapel, to play among the leaves and fodder
Many games and several contests were enjoyed. The evening festivities were closed
by class stunts. All returned to their rooms rejoicing and feeling grateful to the
social committee for the lovely entertainment. ■■
VALENTINE SOCIAL
On the evening of February 14, 1929, the faculty and students assembled for an
occasion of merriment. A deligtful meal was served, after which games were played
and Valentines were exchanged. All enjoyed the program and retired with many fond
memories of the day.
SOCIAL ACTIVITIES ON "THE HILL"
One of the outstanding features in favor of Eli~abethtown College is the oppor-
tunity for developing the social side of one's nature. This is a distinct advantage in
a small school, for in such a school each student learns to know every other student.
At first these acquaintanceships are quite casual, especially between sexes, but with
time and development they become rather intimate, often being the basis for life-
long friendships, — whether of chums or of partners.
Spring seems to be a fine time to further promote these friendships, for with
love songs in the air from birds and choruses, and shady nooks to have a tete-a-tete,
it isn't easy to resist. With spring come flowers and buds on plants and trees and
Nature has endowed the College and vicinity with plenty of new life and natural
beauty.
The social atmosphere around the College is fostered throughout the year in
various ways, — by moonlight hikes, by sleigh rides, by canoeing, and by leisurely
strolling over the campus and on shaded lanes and country roads. The lake offers
a splendid place for recreation in winter and in summer. Those interested in gliding
over the ice on skates find their time spent valuably during a few short weeks of
winter and can learn cooperation in a small way. In summer rowing and canoeing
form a pleasant pastime as a relief from school work.
Due to the prevalence of a general feeling of sociability no student needs feel as
an outsider to the group here at "E. C", but rather as a necessary part of the young
people's group. Democracy is a well-established principle and social standing and
wealth should not serve as grounds for prejudice but all should be given an equal
chance.
[ 99 ]

Besides the regular soeials held by the College there are cither social functions
held during the year by each individual class. Another way of getting acquainted
in a really practical manner is the habit of having "Open Dorm," as we call it, that
is, to have the girls visit the boys' dormitory and at another specified time to have
the boys visit the girls' rooms. This year the girls were the first to invite the op-
posite sex to visit their rooms. Each room was thoroughly cleaned and neatly
arranged but the two rooms receiving the most attention in the way of new curtains,
pictures and furniture were the Girls' "Y" Room and the Day Student Room. Of
course, such an affair as "Open Dorm" would not have been complete without eats
and the girls showed their ability in preparing and serving delicious refreshments.
About a month later the boys threw open their rooms to public inspection and the
girls' careful search for a speck of dirt was not rewarded by any such finding for
the boys displayed the fact that women are not the only people who can wield the
broom and manipulate the dust cloth. After visiting each individual room the girls
were invited to the Boys' "Y" Room, on the third floor, where they were entertained
by music from the Boys' R. C. A. Several checker players proved their ability in
this field and soon refreshments were served in cafeteria style. This sociable attitude
among the students is also found between professors and students. Students often
have occasion to visit the professors in their homes and so there is plenty of oppor-
tunity outside the class-room for a teacher and his students to learn to know each
other.
Each year during the first week of May we have a large number of special
students coming to our town and College for a special six-weeks' course offered to
teachers. The regular students try to make these Spring Normal students feel at
home among them and so during the first week of the special term have a get-
acquainted social on the campus. After all, it seems that the friendships made and
sociability developed during College days are some of the things which cling to one
throughout later life.

Resume of Football
For the first time at Elizabethtown College, a group of the men students formed a
football team, although the college did not sponsor it or finance it. There being no
funds available to secure an outside coach, the group interested in football elected
A. W. Angstadt as coach. "Red" is a member of the junior class and played two
years of football at Juniata College before coming to Elizabethtown. Walter Eshel-
man, an other junior, was elected manager and Benjamin Hoffman, a sophomore,
acted as captain.
The team lost all five games on the schedule, scoring thirteen points to our op
p. incuts' sixty-nine.
The first practice was held in the middle of September with fifteen men reporting
for the team. Most of the boys were young and lacked experience in college football
but quite a few played on various high school teams. The task of developing a team
was a difficult proposition and the outlook was anything but bright. The players
nevertheless faced the project admirably and with a spirit that carried them through
the season despite the many handicaps.
Although we did not win a game our season was nevertheless successful. First,
a football team was formed for the first time and a schedule was completed; second,
there were no serious injuries; third, it was successful from a financial standpoint,
and the fourth, the college was advertised considerably.
The first game was played at West Chester, September 28, against the Teachers'
College of that place. With only one week of practice, Elizabethtown made a cred-
itable showing, although losing 18-0. The game was played in a sea of mud and
water and all three of West Chester's touchdowns were scored on "breaks" of tin
game.
The following Saturday, Beckley College, of Harrisburg, was played in Eliza-
bethtown, on the Klein Athletic field. This game was rough and hard played but
the visitors crossed our goal line in the third quarter for a touchdown and extra
point. Our team fought hard the last quarter and by a successful forward pass
attack, succeeded in advancing the ball to our five-yard line as the whistle blew.
The final score was 7-0 in favor of Beckley.
The next week was the busiest of our entire campaign. We played two games
this week, one on Wednesday afternoon and one on Saturday.
On Wednesday, October 7, the team journeyed to Millersville and played Mil-
lersville State Teachers' College. Millersville beat us 18-0 but both teams were al
most evenly matched. A touchdown m the early minutes of the game by an alert
Millersville player seemed to take all the pep out of our players.
The second game of the week was played against Lebanon high school at Lebanon
on Saturday, October 10. A large crowd witnessed the game and for a time victory
looked us straight in the eye. Hoffman, our plunging halfback, scored a touchdown
[105]
*38£§*CPKr

in the second quarter and Angstadt drop-kicked the extra point. But our lead was
short lived, as Lebanon came back in the second half to tie the score and in the clos-
ing minutes of the game scored another touchdown to win, 12-6.
The last game of the season was played at Kut-town against Kut-town State
Teachers' College, on October 27. Elizabethtown again held the lead, only to be
overtaken and defeated by a score of 14-6. Harry Bower, our fleet-footed halfback,
sprinted fifty yards to score our touchdown.
Our team was composed mostly of day students. The line players were: Houser,
Barbour, Hiestand, Dick, Zarfoss, C. Wenger, Cassel, Keller, Naylor, Hackman, Heil-
man, Boltz and Crouthamel. Our backfield was composed of Fisher, Lauer, Blough,
E. Wenger, Minnich, Hoffman and Norman Reber.

Resume of Basketball
Shortly after the close of the football season, about the middle of November,
the first basketball praetice was held with Ira Herr and D. E. Meyers in charge.
Mr. Herr, a former student of the college and now a resident of Eluabethtown, was
secured to coach the players. He had much experience in coaching high schoo
basketball teams. He coached the powerful Elisabethtown high school team in 192?.
At the first practice, Coach Herr outlined the plans for the season and put the can-
didates through some stiff exercises.
As the new Student-Alumni gymnasium was not completed, the first few prac
tices were held in the old gymnasium, in the basement of Rider Hall. About 111
teen reported but in a few days this number was increased to over twenty.
Coach Herr had only two men with former college experience, as a nucleus to
start building his team. "Red" Angstadt played at Juniata and Clyde Wenger saw
service last year with Millersville State Teachers' College.
A schedule of sixteen games was arranged, which included some of th best col-
lege teams in the East.
We made our debut in inter-collegiate competition on the night of December 8.^*"
We opened our season in a very impressive manner, as we defeated Millersville State
Teachers' 'College in a well-played but hard-fought contest by the score of 27-22.
The action was fast and furious throughout the entire contest. The blue and gray
players played as if inspired and at half time were leading 19-10. The second half
was more exciting than the first but our lead was too great to overcome and our
entrance^jfttffTfouege athletics was a success.
The next game, on December 13, was played at York, against Thompson College.
This game resulted in our second victory by the score of 36-24. Elizabethtown was
trailing at half time, 1^-14, but a last quarter rally featured the game, as ten points
were scored in rapid succession. The game was played on the large White Rose
Arena floor.
On Saturday, December IS, Williamson School, of Philadelphia, was played at
home and we won our third straight game, 31-24. The visitors could not solve our
fast-breaking offensive the first half and we trotted to the dressing room with the
score standing 2 3-9 in our favor. The visitors started the second half with new life
and soon came within tying the score but a rally in the fourth quarter assured us
of victory.
The last game before the Christmas recess was played at Bethlehem against
Moravian College on Tuesday afternoon, December 18. This game was a thriller
from start to finish. At half time our team was leading, 14-13, but in the second
half Moravian overcame a six-point lead to nose out a 34-33 victory. Eluabethtown
outscored Moravian from the field, twelve goals to nine, but we were woefully weak
from the foul line
irom uie loui line.

Due to work in the gymnasium, the team was foreed to play its next game with-
out any praetice, which considerably handicapped the playing. This game, the first
after vacation, was played at Freeland against the Freeland Mining and Mechanical
Institute on January 5. The long ride seemed to affect our play during the first half
and Freeland had a 20-8 lead. In the second half our team played much better and
scored as many points as the other team but the lead gained in the first half was
too great to overcome and as a result we were defeated, 35-24.
The next two games were played on a trip to Virginia and Maryland. Bridge-
water College was played at Bridgewater, Virginia, on January 8. In the first half
of this game Elizabethtown held Bridgewater to a lone field goal while scoring thir-
teen points herself. In the second half Bridgewater overcame this nine-point lead
to nose out a close victory by the score of 25-23.
The following night Washington College was played at Chestertown, Maryland.
Although our team played well, it could not cope with the speedy offense of the
flying Pentagons. As a result Washington scored its eighth consecutive victory,
38-17. Washington College has one of the best teams in the East, as their record
will testify. They have won the Maryland State Championship for three successive
years. On their northern trip this year, they defeated Juniata, Susquehanna Univers-
ity and Schuylkill on successive nights.
Two days later, on January 11, American University was played in Washington,
D. C, before a large crowd. The Blue and Gray tossers played exceptionally fine
ball and at half time American University was leading by only six points — 22-16.
The second half saw our defense weakened considerably as Hackman and Bower were
forced to leave the game because of personal fouls. The result was an avalanche of
field goals by the "lanky" Capital City tossers and the game ended with Elizabeth-
town on the short end of 46-28 score.
On Saturday, January 12, East Stroudsburg Teachers' College invaded the local
court and carried off the bacon in a poorly-played contest. The strenuous southern
trip made a telling effect on our players and the result was that the visitors went
home with an easy victory, 5 3-34. The visitors were well supplied with big men and
they played a fast brand of basketball.
The team made another short trip, this time to Baltimore on January 18, and
played the University of Baltimore before the largest crowd of the season. Over
three thousand persons attended this game. The game was played at Carlin's Arena
and the floor was of enormous size. Our team flashed a dazzling offensive the first
half and played almost on even terms with the tall Baltimore players. But the second
half was a different story as Baltimore sank field goals from all angles and directions.
The final score was 43-20 in Baltimore's favor.
On Tuesday, January 22, we played the National Farm School at Ehzabethtown.
Our team turned in a hard-fought victory and also halted our long losing streak,
which had reached six straight. The score was 40-32. This game was fast and well-
played throughout. At half time we were leading 20-16.
On February 2, 1929, our basketeers journeyed to Millersville with high hopes of
[110]
>X2&ggge©K -^9tSiSS^SXS^iy?SiSi
<&
repeating the feat accomplished in the first game with them, but things did not
break our way. After most of the regular squad had been ejected from the game,
Millersville rolled up enough of points to assure them of victory. The score at the
end of the game was: Millersville 44, Elizabethtown 22.
The boys from Freeland visited us on February 9, 1929, and defeated our
team only after a terrific uphill battle. The outcome of the game was not certain
until the final whistle had blown. The score was 42-40.
Blue Ridge College, Maryland, invaded our territory on February 15, 1929,
and met defeat after a very interesting game. At half time the score was dead-
locked but the last half rally proved too much for our rivals and at the end of the
game we stood at the long end of the scoring. The final score was 57-35.
The future doctors from Philadelphia visited us on February 21, 1929, with a
very clever shooting combination. They made many long shots, which spelled
defeat for our team. The final score was 40-26.
The State Teachers' College champions from Mansfield met and defeated our
team only after a hard struggle on March 1, 1929. The teams seemed evenly matched
during the first period of play, but the last half spurt meant defeat for E-town
College. The final score was 43-24.
The last game of the season, with West Chester, March 18, 1929, proved to be
a real thriller. With the score-book showing only two points difference and seconds
to play, one of the forwards took a long shot and the crowd gasped only to see the
ball roll around the rim and drop out. They won with the score 30-28.

Our Men
A. WARREN ANGSTADT
Guard — Forward
"Red" had more experience
than any of the other players on
the team and besides leading the
team in points scored, he played
an impenetrable guarding game.
His dribbling resulted in many
field goals. Teamwork and a
thorough knowledge of the game
were his contributions to the
team. "Red" came to us from
Juniata College, where he was a
three-sport man. He also ar-
ranged the schedule.
IRA HERR, Coach
HENRY BLOUGH
Forward
"Henny" was one of the few
players who was not shifted from
his position. He always played a
steady game and could be depend-
ed upon to do some scoring.
Blough came to us from Franklin
and Marshall College, and was a
member of the freshman class.
(Page 312)
HENRY HACKMAN
Guard
"Hack" came to us from Roths-
ville high school. He was another
player who was not moved from
his favorite position. Although
not scoring many points "Hack"
specialized in scoring in tight and
unexpected moments. Pot shots
and tight guarding was "Hack's"
contribution to the team.
This
tacular
EARL WENGER
Forward
lad always played a spec-
game. He specialized in
shooting long shots, which gener-
ally found their mark. Earl ranked
among the highest in scoring. His
alert floor game enabled the team
to seize many opportunities for
scoring. Earl is a member of the
freshman class.
TROSTLE CROUTHAMEL
Center
"Crouty" was the tallest man
on the squad and he used his
height to good advantage although
he did not have much experience.
The students well remember the
game "Crouty" played against Mil-
lersville Teachers" College. He
is a sophomore and will be with us
for two more years.
(I'age 113)
CLYDE WENGER
Center — Guard
Being the biggest man on the
team, Clyde was always in his
glory when the "going" was the
roughest. He was one of the few
who had previous college experi-
ence, and against the strongest
teams Clyde played best. His de-
fensive and offensive ability was
on a par with the best. Last year
Clyde represented Millersville
Teachers' College.
HAROLD EBERSOLE, Manager
SAMUEL ZARFOSS
Guard — Forward
"Sammy" always made things
unpleasant for his opponents. He
was either in their way or else
scoring a field goal. "Sammy"
served the purpose of a shock
troop and he did it admirably.
His guarding ability was above
the average and he succeeded in
cageing an occasional field goal.
HARRY BOWER
Forward — Guard
Playing guard and forward with
equal ability, Harry always made
his presence felt in a contest. His
occasional spurts toward the goal
generally resulted in two points.
Although small in stature, he
played a hard game with team-
work uppermost in his mind.
Harry is a junior and came from
Juniata.
[114]
Girls' Varsity Basketball Team, 1928-'29
Harry Bower, Coach— — Erma Hershey, Manager
Our team is the first girls' varsity team in the annals of Elizabethtown athletic
events. Though we didn't close the season with overwhelming victories, neither did
we succumb hopelessly to our more experienced rivals. It was hard digging through
all obstructions but since this team has taken the initial step, the next steps will
be far more easy. Our practice was done in a few weeks' time and made many
startling improvements. Though we worked hard we could not hold sway in the
two matches with our rivals of Schuylkill College of Reading. The first fray in the
"gym" was well-played and hard fought. Our opponents rallied with a 34-17
victory. A few weeks later we journeyed to Reading and met Schuylkill on the
Armory court. Again our opponents conquered us with a 27- i 4 lead. Though we
did not rally in scores, our games were won morally. Our team was complimented
on its fair play, and a true sport's attitude was manifested throughout all the skirm-
ishes. Our team members cooperated in performing good team-work, each doing
her bit willingly.
Our Coach
To our coach, Harry Bower, we owe the team's success because of the training he
gave us. "Bower" is much interested in athletics, and wc join in wishing him much
success in his future athletic undertakings.
Our Captain
Evelyn Sprenkle, Captain '2S-'29
"Sprenk'e" is our center and. we feel sure a better one could not be found any-
where. She knows just how and when to hit the ball and she surely can bafF'c hcr
opponents. "Sprenkle" has two years to spend at E. O, and we sincerely hope she
will be a starring member of next year's squad.
Carrie Smith
"Smitty," our side center, is not tall but she surely can fight. She is so quick
that her opponents seldom have a chance to get the ball once she has laid hands
on it. The team will feel that it has lost a very vital part of its fighting aggregation
when it loses "Smitty."
Jessie Woodward
"Jessie," a Sophomore, is our veteran guard. She does play a good defense
game. She is the one who helps to keep the opponents from running up a score
on us. We feel that "Jessie" will be a big part of future victorious teams on the
Hill.
Mae Huff
"Huff" is another who holds the important position of guard. Her passing is
quick and accurate and she possesses very promising guarding ability. Though
"Huff" is a Frosh, we feel sure she will improve and defend the Grey and Blue of
her Alma Mater.
Irene Royer
"Royer" is our dependable forward. She has not shirked her duty at the scoring
position. Though her shots didn't always mean points, she made up for it in
shooting fouls. She has shown her ability to shoot a goal guarded by the best of
guards. Fight on for the team, "Royer," and E. C. will hold a conspicuous place on
the map.
Eva Bollinger
"Eva" is another forward who helped the score to go up. Her quick pass work
and cooperation have been determining factors in the games. Keep up your good
cooperative spirit, "Eva," and you will possess a thing worth the striving.
Our "Subs'"
A team is never complete without its "subs." Esther Baker, Floy Schlosser,
Fanny Ruth Heisey and Elsie Ziegler were capable of taking up the play where the
"regulars" left off, and met their difficulties bravely, struggling through opposing
barriers.

Team of 1928
In 1928 Elizabethtown College made her debut in inter-collegiate athletics when
a tennis team was selected and sent out to match its strength and agility against
that of several of the neighboring colleges. In the way of victories the season was
not so successful, but it was a beginning, opening the way for a more extensive
schedule this year. Other players were also attracted to the college, and all indica-
tions point to a very successful season.
The most likely candidates for the team this year are "Red" Angstadt, formerly
of Juniata, who as a player on their team swept everything before him. He also
holds several county championships. Then there are the Wengers, Clyde and Earl.
Both are experienced and flashy players, and when playing against each other there
is always doubt as to who will be the victor until the last ball is served. Wilbur
Beahm, first man on the team of last year, is back, and will certainly land a place on
the team of this year. "Henny" Blough, who played for F. and M., always plays
a fast, hard game and is a likely candidate. Another steady player is Marhn Kaylor,
who played last year, and has for several years played on the town team. "Ben"
Hoffman, "Trot" Crouthamel, and "Bud" Cassel, also of last year's team, will give
some stiff competition to all candidates for the team and some, at least, of these three
should land a place on the squad.

Team of 1928
Baseball is one sport which stopped as an inter-collegiate activity almost as soon
as it began. During the 1928 season the college had a team on the diamond for the
first time. This group played several games and successfully inaugurated the sport,
if they were not so successful in the way of victories.
This year, however, there will be no intercollegiate competition, due mostly to
the fact that it is hard to financially support a baseball team at a small college. This
will not mean that no baseball will be played at the college, however, for an inter-
class league has been formed. It is also probable that some of the fellows may form
a team and play other schools in an unofficial way.

Track Meets Planned
This year Elizabethtown College will make her debut on the cinder path and
on the field, for a track team has been moulded into shape that will compare favor-
ably with many of our rivals. In addition to the inter-collegiate meets there will
be an intra-mural meet on April 2d. This will serve as a sort of a preliminary tryout
for the team to represent the college in the meets that have been scheduled for this
year.
The schedule at the time of this writing was not completed, but it was thought
that at th; most there would be four meets, three dual and then the conference meet.
Those definitely scheduld are a dual meet with Susquehanna University at Selms-
grove, on May 4, and a dual meet with Williamson Trade School, of Philadelphia,
at Elcabethtown, on May IS.
The events in which the college will participate, and which will be on the
docket of the dual meets are: the hundred, two-twenty, four-forty, and eight-eighty
dashes; the mile and two-mile runs; the one-twenty high hurdles, the two-twenty
low hurdles; and on the field the shot put, discus, javelin, high jump, broad jump,
and the pole vault.
The prospects for a successful season are good, if the material available is any
criterion for judging. First, there is Bower, whose fleet-footedness is well remem-
bered from his freshman year, when he ran away with everything. He will be
entered in the dashes and the broad jump. Then, there is Reber, a speedy distance
man, who is also good on the dashes. If he hits his stride he should win some-
places for E-town. Angstadt, who tossed the weights at Juniata, will be entered in
the same events for Eli-abethtown and has already shown fine form. Hoffman and
Fisher, two football men, will also put their brawn back of the weights in an en-
deavor to place for the college. Thome is a candidate for the high jump. He has
won first place in several of the intra-mural meets. Kerr and Crouthamel will try
for the dashes and the javelin throw. In addition to these older students there are
several fellows who showed up well in high school competition and will try to do
the same for the college this year. Zarfoss will try the dashes, and Barbour the
dashes and hurdles. Chapman and Schant; will enter the distance runs and Hiestand
will try his legs in the high jump.

Interpreting Left Arm Signals
The following ten possible interpretations of the left arm signals as given by most
auto drivers were enumerated by C. C. Janes, of the Ohio State Automobile Associa-
tion, before the annual Safety Congress in New York :
1 . He is going to turn to the left.
He is knocking the ashes off his cigar.
He is going to turn to the right.
He is waving at a friend.
He is going to pass the car ahead.
He is feeling for raindrops.
He is going to slow down.
He is pointing out something interesting.
He is going to stop.
He is arguing with the wife or kids.
"Excuse It, Please!"
They tell a story in Washington about a certain legislator noted for his ready wit
One day while in conversation with an official of the local telephone company the
latter mentioned that he knew of a young woman who wanted to get a job as secretary
on "The Hill," as the Capitol is known.
"I'm sorry, but I don't know of anything," the solon advised, but, as an after-
thought: "Why don't you give her a job yourself — in your Wrong Number depart-
ment!"

A Mental Meandering
of the tiditor
'Twas a clear summer night, and outside the stars were twinkling brightly, the
new moon shone through the window and dimly illuminated the room with its
silvery beams. The room was dark, save for a small candle at the far end, which
vainly tried to penetrate the darkness with its tiny ray of light. There were two
people in the room. The influence of the time was upon them, and they drew closer
together. Still closer and closer until the vague shadows of their bodies seemed al-
most to blend into one. Silence! Let us listen. Yes, one is speaking, whispering in
that strange singular tone. The other draws still nearer, drinking m the words of
his engrossing partner. What are they saying? As, yes, now we hear the words,
"Yes, Mr. Gross," Madame Zenzie, the spiritualist, is saying, "I can recall the spirits
of all of your classmates and let you learn of their lives. Hark, they are coming.
"I am the ghost of Mervin Brandt. I come from a foreign land where I tor
merly had my abode." Spiteew. "Darn this 'obacco I borrowed from Belzubub.
Well, any way, since I must be disturbed I'll let 'er rip. After graduating from
E-town I taught in Mt. Joy for a few years. Then came the eventful year of 1 '
when the Legion held their convention in Paris. Dr. Grier insisted that I accompany
him at his expense, since he got his bonus for ten years of teaching at E-town. Sunn
after we arrived the nation was shocked by the death of Paul Poiret. Yes, he died
suddenly: he saw one of his latest creations on the streets before he expected it and
the shock killed him. In the midst of their grief they sought for another to take
his place. A French girl, whose petticoat I mended during the war, saw me and
remembered my creative ability, — peteew — recommended me and I was offered the
job. As it was much more attractive and interesting than teaching, I accepted.
There is little else to tell, just one thing after another unil I finally reached my
present status. — Spiteew — " and he was gone.
"He, he, ha, ha, ha, ha." Ah, yes, Roscoe Thome. "Ha, ha, that's a hot one.
St. Peter lost his keys and can't let Beahm in. Ha, ha, ha. What, just like Gross,
always interrupting a good laugh. Yes, I, too, was successful. After I graduated
from medical school I returned to Elizabethtown, and just after I passed the campus
on the road to Milton Grove I saw a sick pig in the field. I pitied Professor Rose,
tor I was afraid it might die and fall into the hands of certain people's children who
had inherited some of the traits of their parents, so I stopped and operated upon it.
A farmer saw me and asked me to do his butchering and my medical school training
had fitted me so well that I was kept busy ever after butchering for the Lancaster
County farmers.'"
"Well, let s sit around awhile. Here I am between two opinions again. No rest
even after death. Ever since I had to choose between the lesser of two evils in my
senior year I have been in this state. Well, my music lessons will just have to wait
awhile. I didn't amount to much. As political reformer in Milton Grove I feel th.it
my life has been wasted, but I've done the best that any man could who had a wife
and twelve children, and now I have been sent here for some rest. ' "Who was
that7" asked Gross. "That, why that was Beahm, the shining light of your class;
poor fellow, his charm was lost through hard work."
"Say, fellow-s, I'm going to have me a date." Yes, yes, thought Gross, no other

1950-
than Eshelman; he certainly will unfold a tale of the opera and concert stage. "No,
T was not famous. True, I sold more fish than any of the other peddlers, yet I
can not say I achieved fame. I first failed in opera and then after repeated failures
as train announcer, junk dealer, and paper boy I had to use my voice in selling fish
to make a living."
"I had trouble with the next spirit, she refuses to answer," said Madame. "It is
Elizabeth Gintzer, and she is arguing against evolution with Mary Bixler. Mary
insists that Dr. Gner firmly established the doctrine and she will hold to it despite
what is said." We will have to pass them by.
"And I am Earl Cassel. I died of lumbago contracted while picking up paper in
Long's park — my chosen occupation. I was too small to make a good school teacher,
and so because I was short I got this job. I could do it faster than any other because
I didn't have to stoop so far. My life story is brief, and I depart."
"Well," thought Mr. Gross, "the other of the Cassels will have a story of fame
and fortune, let us listen." "And then the rabbit ran after the nice, big turnip, but
it rolled and rolled and — oh, yes, my life history. It is simple. I married after
graduation and my love for children led me to become a writer of children's stories.
Of course, I was happy; now let me return to my musings and reminiscences."
"And my story is short," said the voice of Jimmy Ebright. "The cannibals ate
me when I made my first missionary journey into the wilds of Australia. That is
all."
"As in life, so in death, we travel together. We haunt the darkened rooms of
E-town's noble halls, where behind closed doors couples are won't to linger. But
we scare them! We chase them! We make their blood run cold. No one will
break our endurance records." Certainly none other than Fuhrman and Frysinger.
"Hooss! Hooss!" Is it possible, not Dorothy Hamilton? "None other. Yes,
I spent my life on the farm. 1 enjoyed the cows and chickens. I can not complain."
"There's a rainbow round my shoulder — ." Hail to the toast of Broadway, Mary
Kreider. "I found the teaching profession too dull so I became a maid of a prom-
inent actress. One night she became ill and I took her part. After that my suc-
cess was assured."
"And now I shall recall May Strayer and Ruth Nedrow." "Hi, Wes, yea this is
Ned. Sure I ran an orphanage. I had forty of the little sinners in my school, so I
thought I might as well take a few more and have them all the time. I thought
then I could improve them, but kids is kids. Well, it was a lot of fun, anyway.
Here, May, tell 'em about your old folks' home. No? Well, then don't, but May-
did have an old folks" home, and she ran it swell, too. So long."
"It is impossible to get a move out of the next one on your list. Risser spent his
time "just hangin' around" and now, as in school, he seldom answers." "I'll try
Rosa Schwartz; yes, here she is." "Song and dance were my life work. I entered
the "Vanities" soon after graduation, and with what I saved from my salary and
gifts I was soon able to retire. I spent my declining years in May Strayer's home."
Now Minmch. "Permanent? No, just a marcel. All right. Oh, howdy, yes, I
was a hair dresser. My aesthetic tastes would naturally attract me to some such
field. You see I had plenty of practice while still in college in curling my room-
mates hair."
_ "I can not get in close touch with the last two on this list. Adeline Weaver is
forever talking and can not be interrupted, while no medium has ever been able to
break througn Miller's silence. Yes, the fee is five thousand dollars. Thank you."
"Humm, mused Gross, as he returned to the White House, I don't believe I
would trade with any of them. I am satisfied with being gardner here.

Big Sisters and Big Brothers eiFected an early arrival in order to bestow
due attention upon their tender charges, whose first appearance on the
Hill was attended by some misgivings.
The student body, divided into four groups, made a circuit visiting the
homes of as many professors. While, needless to say, all were delightfully
entertained, this visit tended to disprove the traditional plea of the college
professor's poverty.
A paradox: That which today was commenced in enthusiasm and perhaps
wild delight will in the next month of January inevitably end quite ser-
iously.
Enrollment is completed.
All schedules are finally arranged.
Upper classmen are taking advantage of the large variety of Freshman
debutantes.
First group pictures for the E-tonian are taken, following Chapel.
Professor Schlosser requests more reverence of the Chapel assembly.
She whose arrival was exceeded in fond anticipation only by her departure,
today made known her presence.
In order to insure the enforcement of the Freshman regulations, a Senior-
Junior Tribunal was elected. They will supplement the activity of the
Sophomores by comprising the judiciary, division of the enforcement ma-
chinery.
Following dinner the gentlemen, acting in accord with a previous an-
nouncement, repaired to Room E, where, under the presidence of the head
of the dining room, very exhaustive plans wer formulated for the im-
provement of the things as well as the people generally associated with a
dining room.
Verily a record-breaking day was noted in the class of American History.
A pedestrian, according to Miss Geist, traversed ^20 miles in one day.
According to Norman Reber, Buffalo Bill killed 4,200 buffaloes in one day.
All students interested in debating met in Room C to organize the de-
bating association.
Professor Rose is sorely vexed by the conduct of certain day students in his
"elite" German classes.
Football practice is in full swing.
The editor, I. Wayne Keller, announces that the E-tonian will be ready for
circulation by January 1st the next.
A football squad representing E-town College in an unofficial way, after
two weeks of training directed by a fellow-member and player, sallied
forth in a way which savored of audacity, and, to the surprise of the most
sanguine optimists, the Blue and Gray eleven held the crack West Ches-
ter Teachers" combine to 18-0.
Freshman regulations went into effect.
Impudent Frosh flagrantly display their ignorance by insolent interrogation
of some members of the Senior-Junior Tribunal. Where reason fails it
be replaced by more coercive measures.
After prolonged absence without "official permission" the dean again puts
in her appearance in the dining room.
Beahm, apparelled as a woman and escorted by Don Quixote Hoffman,
conducted himself jn such a manner as to evoke the following statement
from the rather easily abashed spinster, "And they were embracing and
kissing furiously."

Nature"s fading green has quite appropriately been replaced by that qual-
ity of greenness which is making itself manifest from the top of the
scantily filled heads of the male Freshmen.
The Millersville Teachers successfully overcame the crippled Blue and
Gray eleven.
The local Y. M. C. A. is represented at the Student-Faculty Conference
convened at Franklin and Marshall College, in Lancaster.
A rather unsuccessful meeting of the girls, over which the Dean was
president, followed by a more successful mass meeting, not in Fanueil
Hall, but in Alpha Hall. We all remember the cause of the provocation.
The College Freshman is not only subject to special regulations but bullets
as well. Wayne Reber, while executing activity in regard to one of the
threefold phases of his life, was unaccountably wounded by a bullet. This,
while circling the athletic field within a stone's throw of the College build-
ings.
It was with no little regret and sorrow that President Schlosser was
obliged to announce the resignation of Dr. Merrells.
The Men's Student Council, after a prolonged period of inactivity, com-
mence to dispose of some very serious business.
Arbor Day was duly observed. As customary, the program was con-
trolled by the Seniors. Planting of the tree was preceded by a very
timely address by a State Forester.
Students enrolled in the Social Science Department directed by Professor
Nye, were privileged in visiting and observing the various public and
private institutions in Lancaster for the detention of dependents.
The light-giving organization on the Hill, in the character of the Candles,
held a banquet at Chef's place, near Annville.
The Hallowe'en Social, attended by students as well as faculty members,
was held in the Chapel.
The opening day of the game season for the greater portion of game in
Pennsylvania finds many of the male students assuming the role of
nimrods.
The program rendered by the Cordova concertiers marked the opening of
the Lyceum Course.
For date-mongers the activities of a strenuous week are climaxed by a pro-
gram presented in Chapel by the Zimmer Harp Trio.
The first day of Education Week was observed by an address by Professor
Nye upon the main issues of the presidential campaign.
Carpenters are called in to repair doorway which was accidentally en-
larged when Keller attempted an exit after drinking two gallons of cider.
Preparatory to a poll of the student vote, Professor Schlosser addressed
the Chapel assembly upon "The Ideals of a Democracy."
The day has at length come when many speculations shall be nullified
or verified. The average college student looks at it from the viewpoint of
more beer and bigger pretzels.
E-town College students, however, are not the average in this respect.
A student audience, therefore, which is hopelessly prejudiced, throngs the
Y Room, listening to poll returns as received via the radio.
After the returns are unquestionably decisive, favorable to the Western
Engineer, some of the more hopelessly pious retire and, amid profuse
thanks to the Almighty that these blessed United States have been saved
from the presidency of a ? ? ?, finally succumb to somnolence.

Another feature in the observation of Education Week consisted of an
elaboration upon the theme of "Courtesy" by Professor Musick. He
complimented the students of E-town College for their unparalleled polite-
ness.
A sound mind in a sound body was the keynote to an address by Professor
D. E. Meyers.
Dr. H. K. Ober completed the program for Education Week by speaking
to the Chapel assembly on "Christianity and Education."
Observance of the Armistice was most strikingly neglected.
The twenty-eight anniversary of the founding of the College was cele-
brated by a Founder's Day program. Dr. Ziegler, alumnus and son of
the president of the first board of trustees, featured the program by an
address.
Basketball practice is begun despite the fact that the gym is not yet
completed.
Mid-week prayer meeting duly observed.
Oyster soup was served at luncheon. A note of instructions to the head
of each table read as follows: "Serve only two oysters to each individual,"
— but Keller got eighteen.
A surprisingly large percentage of the male boarding students survived the
impulse to return home over the week-end.
"These are the days that try men's souls."
Riley Scott, the wandering poet from Kentucky, reads some of his poetry to
the students, and later offers it for sale. He is responsible for the presence
m many rooms of a poster bearing the following inscription, "An Arab
can live entirely on dates but a college student can't."
The "men" remain after Chapel to discuss Freshman regulations. The
latter make much ado about nothing.
Debating tryouts for ladies and gentlemen are conducted before three in-
fallible judges.
The administration dispenses with supper, due to the serving of an in-
formal repast by the girls in connection with their "Open Dorm."
"The Biography of a Boy" is the subject of a lecture by Bishop Hughes.
The Gymnasium Auditorium is nearing completion, but not as rapidly as
it should for practical purposes.
Thanksgiving is observed at a most early day; inasmuch as a banquet
makes possible its observation.
Efficiency in the classroom was at a low ebb. Reason: Thanksgiving
recess began at 4.00 P. M.
The President, in company with other members of the faculty attended a
conference of Eastern Colleges, in Atlantic City.
The more ambitious students who have already returned from their brief
vacation make an informal raid on the kitchen in order to relieve their
gastronomic yearnings.
After a short session of Epicurean festivity most of the students have
again returned to assume a more stoical attitude.
The Alumni Gymnasium is available for basketball practice.
The Juniors, who are poverty stricken in everything save in respect to
dignity, had their first social function for the school year in the nature
of a poverty party.
More students remaining over the week-end than any previous time. Ex-
planation: a basketball game on Saturday evening.

(Calendar — Continued from page 140)
The entrance of E-town into intercollegiate basketball is a realized goal
when President Schlosser, on the home floor, tosses the ball into the air,

triumphant to the tune of 27-22.

IN TRUST FOR HUMANITY
"They are only loyal to this college who, departing, bear their
added riches in trust for humanity."
This ideal, chiseled on the gateway which leads from the campus ol a certain Amei •
ican College out into the world of service, is likewise inscribed in the hearts of a great
majority ol the students of Brethren colleges.
Bui how can this trust be fulfilled in the highest way?
Certainly no field of service offers greater possibilities than that of religious leadership
Bethany Seminary has been established and is being maintaind by the Church of the
Brethren to prepare her college graduates for the most efficient service in the ministry,
the mission held, religious education, and other lields of Christian work.
Courses are offered leading to the degrees of Bachelor of Divinity and Master o!
Religious Education.
