Tradition and convention hold such sway over the majority of Yale's entering classes that it is but seldom that the recorder of the events of Freshman year has the opportunity to immortalize in literature anything of an original character. The Class of 1914 seems to be the exception that proves this rule, and, ergo, it would seem a shame to sacrifice this space to an uninteresting if more vanity- satisfying list of members who entered the arena of extra- curriculum activity at the expense of omitting a description, however inadequate, of the thrilling exploits connected with Hartenstein, Mr. G., and the chief of the New Haven police force. [9] HISTORY or THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN Nearly forty-eight months ago on that famous Wednesday, September 28, 1910, Yale's immortality began when, three hundred and sixty-five in the aggregate, we invaded New Haven, the destined home of most of us for the next four years. At last we were Yale men, and the thought was a solace to us all, particularly cherished, however, at that time by those who, even though on the fifty dollar side, were unfortunate enough not to be in 242, and by those doomed to the chilly warmth of Piersdh Hall. As all embryonic Yalensians, we were enormously thrilled and excited on this night before Col- lege opened. The general air of unrest that pervaded the town at large, and the horrid horde of hoodlums that had already gathered in the neighborhood of the College evidenced that events of no mean note were in the offing, and, at the sound of the band in front of Osborn Hall, we felt our time had come. Putting on a bold front, however, we massed ourselves under the glare of the torches, ready to do or die anoj not even inquiring as to the reason why, which last is a perverted quotation. In our conflicts with the Sophomores that evening we gave an exhibition that augured well for the future of Yale, for the next few years at least. Though in the wrestling matches we went down to a glorious defeat in two of the con- tests, Avery's notable victory in the middleweight that gave promise of his future prowess that was destined to land him in the captaincy of the grapplers for two successive seasons, more than made up for our disappointment at Sheppard's and Loman's downfall against their decidedly overweight oppo- nents. By this time thoroughly incensed at the Class of 1913 and already developing a sense of pride in our own organiza- tion, we adjourned to York Street for the Rush proper. At least some of us rushed, while the more cautious satiated their desire to completely demolish the entire Sophomore Class by shouting insulting epithets at them from vantage points in the security of Pierson and 248. Discretion appeared to be the better part of valor in rather too many of our Class, as our opponents were again declared triumphant in spite of the fact [10] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN that what fighters we had, quite evidently, to our eyes at least, were more expert in picking holes. At our shouts of disapproval at the verdict, the Senior marshals confessed that their decision was only in accord with a time-honored tradi- tion that they dared not transgress. The Class of 1915 was as yet unconceived. Our charitable instincts now satisfied, as nearly all of us had equipped members of New Haven's bour- geoisie with choice cappings, we hastened to the haven of our rooms to escape the dreaded beer shampoo that rumor had it was the next thing in store for Eli's neophytes. After mentally congratulating ourselves on our successful passage through the tribulations of the night, we dropped off to sleep, being inter- mittently awakened, however, by shouts of "Fresh! Fresh! Put out that light!" and from then on until morning proving the practicalness of that oft-considered but theoretical line, "While Freshman trembling on their couches lie." The next few days made evident the fact that expectations are invariably better than realizations, and it was with some- what of a jolt that we awakened to the knowledge that Yale was not the Utopia of our "Prep" School dreams, where work was incidental to the general course of events. Our eyes were opened not only by the seemingly absurd length of the assign- ments in our lesson books, but also by the speeches of those leaders of undergraduate activities who, at the Freshman Reception at Dwight Hall, let us into the secre't of how to make good at Yale. It was at that identical function as well, that we were made participants in the knowledge that you never get more out of a thing than you put into it. Our gulli- bility with reference to that particular statement proved dis- astrous to our purses, as it was but shortly afterwards that the Freshman collectors reaped such a harvest because of our naive belief that the more we put into Yale in China, the more we would abstract therefrom. As those were the primitive days when one went out or in for religion, half the Class signified their active interest in Dwight Hall, and particularly in the Oak Street Boys' Club, [12] OUR FRESHMAN FOOTBALL TEAM OUR FRESHMAN HOCKEY TEAM HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN while the other portion either played football or amused them- selves with Hardy. His first offering of femininity as a relish for his victuals soon got in disfavor with the Newberrys and other connoisseurs of the opposite sex, so she resigned in favor of the auburn-haired Ada. At Mr. G.'s advice, as he was still counseling his charges in every detail, Ada was passed, and the Eli Lunch again came into good repute in Garlands and, ipso facto, with ol TroAAot of the Class as well. The nightly riots were to be reserved for another time however. The Freshman football team passed through a thoroughly satisfactory preliminary season but hit a rock on November 5, when the Princeton youngsters won a hard-fought contest by a score of 6 to 0. This defeat, sad to relate, proved but the beginning of the end, as but a week later the second of the cham- pionship games was lost to Harvard to the tune of 14 to 9. Much comfort may be derived from the fact, however, that it was largely due to the gruelling practice given the University Eleven by the Freshmen that Fred Daly's somewhat ill- omened aggregation finally pulled out a victory over Princeton and a tie with Harvard. In spite of a season that made us resort to the philosophical reflection of "what might have been, if the worst had been the best," our eleven certainly had excuse enough for being, in that it brought to light players of such sterling worth and future fame as Ketcham, Cooney, Warren, Cornish, Wheeler, Harbison, and others, Avery at that point in his gridiron career having insisted on hiding his light under the conventional bushel basket. An event of paramount importance happened at this time, an incident that not only reflected great credit on the Class of 1914 but also had a permanent and I may say beneficial effect on all succeeding classes. Mr. G.'s charges revolted from his authority. Such rank heresy could hardly be credited by the college world, but it is a fact that at a solemn conclave, the inmates of 242 resolutely resolved to pay no more atten- tion to Mr. G.'s edicts and later on reinforced their faltering resolutions by physically demonstrating their superiority over [14] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN OUR FRESHMAN BASEBALL TEAM their former pater. Under the guidance of Tom Holt, he was first thrown into the fireplace and pelted with logs of wood. Angered by his remonstrances, his tormentors dragged him forth and hurled him bodily out of his own habitat and turned the lock. Meditating on the advantages of a whole skin, Mr. G. passed over the affair in as dignified silence as possible, considering the indignity he had been subjected to, but his hold was gone, and his former subjects which was the impor- tance of the event to the Class as a whole came forth and revealed themselves to the street in all the glory of their new freedom. And it was then that we who were not of the inner temple had our first glimpse of Ralph Isham, the Newberrys, and others who were to aid in making the winter term of Freshman year more agreeable. The first News competition was now in full swing, as the crowd of ambitious bicyclists and violators of all Nature's laws governing eating and sleeping gave ample evidence. Out of a field of some thirty starters, Douglas, Morgan Noyes, and (16) FRESHMAN YEAR OUR FRESHMAN TRACK TEAM the writer, who out of a due sense of the fitness of things, omits his name, eventually broke the tape in that order and were regularly elected to the board. It was during the latter part of this competition that "Whitey" Ogden renewed his fail- ing strength by repeated and excessive indulgence in dope, which indiscretion gave rise to the radical reforms that were instituted in all future competitions. Innis and Parker demonstrated to the satisfaction of the powers that were their vocal ability and ably represented our Class on the musical clubs trip. Behind the footlights we were present in the person of Rufe King, who at that time made the reputation he has so ably lived up to since and gave evidence of the histrionic ability which was eventually to gain him the presidency of the Dramatic Association. Though the examinations made us pale, but few succumbed, as we found out on our return in January. The regular weather greeted us, and, had it not been for the prospect of the Prom., our spirits would have been low indeed. As a matter of [IT] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN fact, the Prom, was the single most important means of the communication of our presence to the upper classes we had thus far made use of. In addition to the usual review of the guests made by all Freshman classes on Prom. Sunday, we placed our seal of disapproval on the tradition prohibiting Freshman from attending the function by sending one from our midst to do that very thing. Tom Holt it was who gave us this distinction and his performances since then can never equal the way he pushed around the Armory on that occasion. What the Sophomores considered presumption and freshness, we termed originality, and Tom was backed up by the Class in his efforts to make history. Manager Tom of the Freshman Hockey Team now organized his seven and carried them through a brilliant season up to the Harvard game. The defeat we suffered in that contest cannot dim the memory of Bishop's and Evans' frantic efforts to push all Harvard College off the ice. Swihart and Smith were the two mainstays of the Freshman Basket Ball Five that scored 280 points to their opponents 211, and, with Maxim on the Gym squad, our prowess in the minor sports was more than exemplified. Turning again from our athletic achievements, it was one cold and stormy night that the Eli Lunch's proprietor was called to account for his ill-gotten gains. Ralph Isham, by casual mention of one or two places on the map that he had not visited, had given the impression that he was something of a traveler, so to speak, but had not before revealed his propensities for highway robbery. So no one of the nightly assemblage in the 1914 Cafe suspected the identity of the muffled figure that came in the restaurant on that January evening and, after accusing Hardy of conducting a house of all sorts of vice, ended by demanding the contents of the cash drawer. Hardy's chalky face, already artificially whitened by the contents of the sugar bowl several times emptied on his head by the "Newbs" and "Bip," will never be forgotten by those who were fortunate enough to be present. The wild chase [18] FRESHMAN YEAR OUR FRESHMAN CREW down York Street, headed by the son of Abraham himself, ended, of course, fruitlessly, and the success of the ruse was complete when Ralph, devoid of his disguise, returned with the hunters and talked the situation over with Hardy. Nor should the race riot, precipitated by Almet's mild request for his tennis ball which had rolled into the kitchen, be forgotten. The resultant excitement culminating in Baxter's zealous search for his pistol and the presence of three police officers did not calm down for a week or more, during which period Hardy and his house and lot were boycotted. A fall of snow now happening, we had our first opportunity to settle our differences as to the superiority of one side of the street over the other. The fusilade of snowballs from Pierson started the riot that is even now talked of in whispers and which will go down in the annals of the New Haven Police Court as well as those of Yale. Garlands, 248-250, and the other houses combined were proving more than a match for "Toot" Farr's charges when he himself appeared and put a [19] FRESHMAN YEAR quietus on the civil war. All would have been well had not the officer on duty at Elm and York already incurred the enmity of some of our Class. He was now made the common target and, as a result, rang for aid and with two accomplices nonchalantly took his stand in front of G.'s. Foiled for the moment, it remained for "Beany" Jennings to grasp the con- necting link between a window and snow. No sooner said than done and Fritz had dropped a great mass of wet slush on the law-preserver's helmet, the vexation of the same official being increased a moment later when a second missile caused a tem- porary stoppage of his ability to hear. With the sagacity for which the New Haven police are noted, this sleuth immediately deduced the fact that Stuart Johnson, an interested onlooker from the steps of 238, was the offender. His dash up the steps and masterful capture of Stuart well merited him the medal for bravery which he would doubtless have been awarded had not at this moment a New Haven "low-life," who was near by, pointed out Clare Prentice as the proper culprit. It is the one blot in our escutcheon that this miscreant escaped the bod- ily punishment he so richly deserved. Clare was pinched and in the turmoil that followed, Lewis Hoffman, Foster Williams, and Ralph Wolf were also gathered in; Hoffie for objecting to the policeman's clubbing Clare, Ralph for resenting an insult- ing epithet an officer applied to him, and Bill for merely exist- ing a little too long in the path of an officious officer. Followed by the Class en masse, the four martyrs were hauled to the police station in the patrol wagon. To be brief, our classmates were fined but, in Dean Jones, whose efforts in their behalf were indefatigable, we had found a new friend, bearing out again the old adage that it's an ill wind that blows nobody any good. After the excitement incident to the formation of the crimi- nal club had somewhat abated, we found that in the interim several of our classmates had ventured into new fields of activ- ity. Rand, Noyes, Tuttle, and Bergen had all persuaded the Lit. Board of their genius, while Avery and Mclntyre had discovered their calling in the classic art of catch as catch [21] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN can. Bergs, Babcock, Ford, Johnson, Carpenter, Barton and the list is interminable were serving their apprenticeship on the Apollo Musical clubs. In the formation of the Freshman Glee Club, the latter part of the term, the customary requirement for membership of the possession of dress suitings was completely ignored, and the entire absence of any ability at singing was substituted. The Newberrys it was who originated this brilliantly stupid method of picking men for the organization, and, at the direction of I. Beebe, they went to work. "Nibs" Noyes, the leader of this curious assemblage, and others who might properly feel libeled by the above statement of the manner in which the selections were made, will perceive the truth of my assertion when I recall to their minds that in the list of men who earned the $7.64 for the Freshman Crew appear the names of S. Colt, T. Holt, D. Hemingway, C. Gile, N. Wheeler, A. Jenks, J. Mitch- ell, C. Baxter, and W. Campbell. Extensive over-night trips were arranged by the hustling manager, J. Banks, who, by the way, on finding his duties too arduous, created the office of "assistant manager of the combined Freshman Musical organi- zations," and enticed Wallace Holden to be the first incumbent thereof. The Freshman Smoker, which was the last event of importance during the winter term, was an entire success under the able guidance of Tom Sheppard, who incidentally ate exclu- sively at the Taft the remainder of the year on the proceeds. Who said the Taft was built our Freshman year? After sit- ting around and waiting for it to rain for a few weeks, the term ended and away we went for the Easter vacation. Primarily because of our success in athletics do we still cher- ish such fond memories of the final term of the year we spent on the Freshman boulevard. The baseball nine, under the leader- ship of Cornish, ended the season with a creditable, nay, emi- nently satisfactory record of 8 wins, 3 losses, and 1 tie, two of the victories being won from the Princeton Freshmen and the tic being with our ancient antagonists from Cambridge. In addition to the captain, Cobb, Gile, Brown, Harpham, Blossom, [22] FRESHMAN YEAR Swihart, and Osborn won their numerals. The track team was even more successful, being satisfied with nothing but decisive victories over both our rivals, Princeton succumbing by the score of 67 2-3 to 36 1-3 and Harvard tasting defeat at their hands to the tune of 62 to 42. Avery, Baxter, Harbison, and Howard were among those who scored points against our opponents and aided us to our first undisputed championship, the baseball team's failure to earn us the privilege of smoking our pipes on the fence denying them the enjoyment of our unstinted praise. The Crew had departed for the ferry some time since, when we clashed with the Sophomores for the third and last time in the ceremony attendant on our inheritance of the historic fence. Our selection of Almet as our champion in this battle of wits proved a happy choice, as was unanimously admitted after he had delivered in his admirable and inimitable manner the ora- tion that on that occasion knew no equal. And so the fence that was already morally ours by virtue of our victory in the fence rush in February the Class of 1915 has since entered College became our property in reality. Before we adjourned to New London, Jones, Blackburn, S. King, and Patterson found themselves on the board of the "Oldest College Daily," while "Ken" Burrough was discovered with a strangle-hold on the valedictoryship. The single crew victory of importance during the first three years of our course was witnessed by those fortunate enough to be in the neighborhood of the Thames in June, 1911, and it is this triumph over Harvard on the water that is our choicest memory of our initial year. The victory of both the Freshman boats did much to wipe out the sting of the Varsity's downfall and allowed us to completely forget the disastrous defeats administered to the University Baseball Team by both Har- vard and Princeton. Rogers and McHenry in the eight and Pearse, Pease, and Lippincott in the four were the men from 1914 who had the exquisite pleasure of watching Harvard cross the finish line. Leaving the scene of our final triumph, [23] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN we read in the papers that Jennings on the golf team and Gates on the tennis had been chosen to represent Yale in the Intercollegiates in the fall. And thus it passed, a year of joys and sorrows, mostly joys, and one that is now indelibly stained in our memories as one of the happiest of our lives. LINDSAY BRADFORD. [24] THE ELIAD. ETTtOTKOTTOV of Bishop BK. MCMXIV. 'Aptcrreta The brave deeds , O Thersites, or whatever your Musaic name is, the deeds of the heroes of our Sophomore year : I have been over the whole epic cycle the News heeling, the fever and the fret of the fall, the Terpsichorean and Machiavellian machinations of the winter, the plots, counter-plots, and culminations of the spring, the racing, tracing and retracing of the early summer. But among all these varied activities, there stands forth one hero, like Diomede of old, he of the loud warwhoop ; and there- fore have I named this book, and, I think, not unwisely, but too well, the chronicles of the brave deeds of J. Bishop. To begin, Bish and we-all came back the former with a wallop, the latter with mixed joy and fear. Bish, owing to an unfortunate untactfulness in cleaning up Toot Farr at penny-ante, the spring before, was, for the time being, rated: shelved, but not quelled. Of that, more anon. Bish is the Dramatic Unity in this book, and also in the true Berdanese sense, the Emphasis and the Punch, in the Broadway man- ager's lingo. The coherence, said to be typical of Yale classes, comes with a Rush. But it is not yet February 22. To continue: the unrated, as distinguished from the unruly, bebusied themselves with furbishing the barren abodes of Dur- [25] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN IN FRONT or DURFEE fee, Farnam and Lawrance, thus starting the eternal triangle (beg pardon, Scotty) which has been allotted to Sophomores ever since. It is said to solidify the class to the extreme con- venience of short-winded campaign committeemen when deliv- ering holdoffs, and Sig. Hartenstein when delivering holdups. (It may be noted that we owed the latter worthy more on paper than any class before or since.) We were extremely careful about our room decorations, for much depended on them. Gone were the colossal Yale seals of York Street, gone were the Prep. School banners, gone the pillows our long outgrown high school crushes had been weav- ing for us since kindergarten; but in their place arose a host of old Dutch candelabra, of Copley prints and of fake Gior- giones (I can see Hod Newson getting up and majestically stalking from the room). For we expected callers, we did; and if the Junior Class was long on anything (which I doubt) that anything was culture. It is but fair to 1913, and inci- [20] SOPHOMORE YEAR dentally to ourselves, to remark here that these outward em- bodiments of the inward spirit of Lizzy Club heeling have remained with us e'en till now, to the immense delight of our maiden aunts and the unutterable disgust of Dutch Carter. J. Bishop roomed on the ground floor of Lawrance, with Larry Carpenter, Tub Clark, Collar-Button Banks, Ned Bart- lett, B. and P. Newberry, Spawn Valding, Dick Dyer, Nate Wheeler, Hod Newson, and Geff Tower. The names of J. Bishop, Foster Williams and Norm Schaff were on the door, for the supposed convenience of the Bursar; but the carcasses of the aforementioned horde were so frequently deposited there that the average News heeler or bill collector could not possibly tell who roomed with what. One day the Bishop and the Deacon were talking shop, i.e., about rooming on the ground floor. Angus Dun had drawn a bottom-story room, too, but said he YORK STREET IN SOPHOMORE YEAR [27] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN A. Clark A. Evans M. Noyes Ketcham SOPHOMORE GERMAN COMMITTEE Daniels preferred one up higher, as the rarefied atmosphere was more conducive to study and meditation. "Top floor be blada- zened!" exclaimed Julian the Apostate. "You just wait till you come home potted some stormy night. Then you'll be d n glad you've got a bed on the ground floor !" To which Angus had no comeback. I am told on good authority that he is still unconvinced. Football started up. So did we-all, when Ben Avery con- tracted the touchdown habit in the first game of the season. The sideline devotees early got accustomed to Foster San- ford's, "That's great, center-rush! That's fine, by - -!" whenever Ketch's tousled head arose from an antagonist's diaphragm, and shook itself like Medusa. Kootsh Cooney was laying under every line-play the foundations of the Cooney [28] SOPHOMORE YEAR defense, a peculiar but effective form of tunneling, which we hear he intends to introduce into his native burg of Brooklyn to obviate the bridge jam. And speaking of bridge reminds us again of our hero, and the Nibs-Noyes, Stew Dodge, Jerry Connolly, Bob Cook entry of Lawrance, where the 3 a.m. sessions of the national game rivalled even Bish's own inven- tion the diverting pastime of Campus golf. This great game deserves brief but signal mention. With a tee-off from a brick on the ruins of Alumni or the foundations of Wright (we never could be sure which), the driver home- ward clouted his eerie way toward a certain spot in the ground floor of Lawrance, with the Fence, short-sighted and slow- moving profs, and old Mary's laundry cart as bunkers, and Toot and Jim Donnelly as the most efficient obstacles. The first hole on this erratic and hazardous course was a pane in Carter Phelps' window in Durfee a different pane each time. As winter came on, Carter and Ken Clapp slept in sheepskin coats and looked out upon the Campus through windows composed largely of the New York Times, like, alas, too many of their fellow collegians in the underworld. The second hole was a light in front of the Avernian entry of Far- nam, and the third and last was at the O'Toole clubhouse in Lawrance. The record for the course held, of course, by the inventor, was 36, the size of the score being accounted for by the necessity of loft shots for putts at the respective orifices. Well, calling came at last, and the whole class, Carp ex- cepted, shaved and put on collars each evening for two weeks. Excitement reigned supreme ; the two hours of glad-handing and cigarette-lading, the four hours of comparison and doping that followed them, wore us to skeletons and left no flesh on us for our runners to sweat off. Nobody slept, nobody studied anything but the Pot Pourri. Ray Palmer used to cause great embarrassment to his roommates by leaving his copy open at one page the second De Secretis all during calling. Tom Daniels and others tried to stimulate conversa- ['29 ] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN tion by concocting coffee for their visitors, and averaged three committees a night; some one (who? Oh, you'd never guess!) trotted out a decanter and averaged all five ! But Rufe King, by playing the "My Hero" waltz every time Charlie Bonnell came around, was the cleverest dopester in the bunch. Hold- offs came at last and eftsoons fifty of us had felt our knuckles crack under the fevered grasps of the campaigners. It was a wild night, both before and after, but remarkable historically for one thing only ; it was the last election that Mr. G. doped in anything like his old-time form. The following spring gave him his death blow. But that can keep. More football. Revenges on West Point and Brown were sweet, but we met a severe setback when Sam White did his famous fadeaway slide, and gave employment to Princeton pic- ture post card makers for twenty years to come. And that night came the Riot the thanwhichest of all riots which have made New Haven famous in the eyes and ears of tremulous old ladies as the land of the spree and the home of the bum. No members of '14 got arrested, so I will not go into details; all I remember is Mac Hayden's telling me excitedly that "Stan- lor Taley; no, Stalor Tanley; no, Tanlor Staley! come darn near being run in !" No proof, however, is alleged, so we may conclude that Taylor Stanley's record is clear. We journeyed en masse to Cambridge* but Bish, who had cannily bet, at colossal odds, that Harvard would not score, was the only man to annex any lucre. A week or so later we had the pleasure of seeing Ketch's name and picture in Col- lier's as deserving of the great All-Mythical Eleven. Thus did 1914 win its first national recognition. Then came the well-named "running." How we plodded up those steep Oval stairways, dutifully doffed our dips, and adorned the sundial when requested by our mentors. And what horrible misfits there were between runners and run! Stew Dodge cowering under Wendy Baker; Rufe King flying with feminine shrieks from the Gargantuan Achelis; Ken Moore kowtowing to the husky Bruce Cortelyou ! [30] SOPHOMORE YEAR It was the morning after running that Barnes Newberry got off his famous wheeze about the lucky Sophomores wearing carnations and the unlucky ones wearing forget-me-nots; whereupon the Yale Flower Agency sprang into being, and by the unprecedented demand for the latter buds (we couldn't say for forget-me-nots without stuttering) throve in might and power, under the beneficent reign of Abe Spencer and Fred Timperley. For have they not but to delay an organiza- tion's morning shipment of flowers its members go forth to chapel unadorned lo, it is doomed! "Consider the lilies of the field, my son," as Dick Hill would say. Just before exams. came the first great boost to the cause of "Temperance and Culture," to borrow a Lorrin Shepardism: i.e., the foundation of the Elizabethan Club. Immediately all our Lit. heelers forswore the "sheer divine concentration of the vine," always heretofore a prerogative of the Lit., and took to Bohea and biscuits at 5 o'clock or "Bronx-time," as Tubby Clark christened the itching hour. Harold Saylor, with a sum total of 30,000 Everyman classics in his room; Almet Jenks, with the complete first editions of Pinero, Shaw, Jones (Henry Arthur, if you please, printer) and Granville Barker; and Emerson Tuttle with 20,099 masterpieces of European and native art, including many of Howard Pyle's fairy tales, auto- graphed, were the first men to be taken in or rather, the first by whom the club was taken in (that's mean, I know, and I'm sorry now I wrote it). It was not until ale had been added to the club's menu that Fran Bergen and Ken Rand even con- sidered the possibility of joining. The fall term ended, as fall terms sometimes do. This one seems, as we look back on it, archaic ; it dragged with it exams. Then, and then only, did we realize what we had been doing when we elected physics, biology and logic. All of us flunked physics ; two of us the author and Don Hemingway had adjoining seats got warned in biology; we all thought we'd flunk logic, but didn't. We got a good scare all along the line, and we can say at this safe distance that exams before [31] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN Christmas were like Stinger cocktails before lunch in a dairy uncomfortable and hazardous. Larry Marks made the News with the largest score yet. Ev Davis we elected manager of football. Morg Noyes chair- manned our Sophomore German committee, with Ketch, Art Clark, Tom Daniels, and Allen Evans as his able assistants. Wash Patterson was elected Business Manager of The Oldest College Daily. The Wigwams and Wranglers debating and debilitating clubs took the field with the following line-up : WIGWAMS. WRANGLERS.

The Glee Club announced the election of Frank Hoadley, Russ Lomas, Red Dodge, Jack Blossom and Gurney Smith as eligible for its midwinter cruise (pron. carouse). The mandolin-banjo and allied instruments club assimilated Herb Semler. The Record initiated Gordon Aymar, Sam Bush- nell, and The Perpetrator of This Pantomime of Impartiality. And last, but best, The Great White Way of The Via Chapella [32] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN burst into light and was baptized in confetti and red fire. Syn- chronous with this disturbance, the class of 1914 burst into lights ahead after exams, and was baptized in fire-water. Here endeth the first term. BOOK II. FYTTE THE 2o We straggled back to the Campus, eyesore and eerie. Our 1914 glee club sextette proved themselves worthy of that name by receiving small, square, cream-colored envelopes, scented with mint and postmarked Louisville, all the rest of the winter. Eggnog became the rage : and the Record's Prom. Tea, because of that fact, became the outrage. In short, The Influence of the South began to be felt at Yale as never before since the days of Jno. C. Calhoun, late lamented. Snow came, and snow went. Movies, as yet in their infancy of development, were accordingly left open to the ravenous patronage of 1915. The greatest movement class that has ever come to Yale; but the Fourteeners went the circuit. Bije to Grand to Poli's three times a week and sometimes four, depending on weather conditions, over and under. At the same time they discovered, in the glow of their Sophomoric freedom and in its propinquity to their haunts of vaudevillainy, a small frame building on Temple Street, which, alas, no other subsequent class has been able to rediscover. Much has been written, said and sung of the charm of Mory's upon first looking into it ; in fact, I believe Keats, in his delec- table Sonnet, "Upon First Looking into Chapman's Homer," really had in mind a first glimpse into this Choplover's Home: "Then felt I like some matcher of the coin When a new penny gets into his pile; Or like Stout Billy, bringing the Sirloine With sausage garlanded shout a mile, For which the hungry Sophomore doth yoin,* Silent, but spreading an expansive smile !" * Newhavenese for yearn. Careful, printer! [34] SOPHOMORE YEAR Mory's was our first love, Mory's of "Temple Bar." The Real Temple Bar. Real, too, were the tears we shed when westward the tide on grill-fire took its way to the excellent, but never-quite-the-same, abode on York Street. Louis Linder, above all, loved "the old place" as his home; and it was a rare privilege to see him sitting of an evening at the Senior table among the Captains and Kings, himself the Host, the Oracle, the Historian. It is a sad but proud memory that our Class was the last to know and love him in the home that he knew and loved. Prom.-time showed an increase in the sales column on the books of Messrs. Jenkins, Fitzgerald and Chase, and a de- crease in the coupon columns of Mr. Kirk's handy little bleed- ing books. Our Sophomore German, thanks to the above- mentioned committee you know all these gentlemen was, as is the habit with those affairs, pronounced the best ever given. As proof we produce the fact that the canes given as favors are carried in the best and most exclusive circles to this very day. As for the Prom., it was a tiring affair, not from any fault of the committee, but from that of the dance then in vogue, i.e., viz. and to wit, the Boston. The Boston, like the conversation of the inhabitants of its native heath, is, in small doses, at least interesting; from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m., it is a bore. No one wanted to dance till eleven the next day, after all night at near-waltzing; so the Prom, survived one more year as a Yale tradition. Well, despite the gayety, the little busy bees of '14 had been out staking claims to various jobs and offices, and after the first rush of settlers to the new regions, Stod King was found installed as Assistant Press Manager of The Yale Dramat, with full power and authority to hang any or all of the cast at a moment's notice for the sake of publicity. Almet Jenks was found after or before (take your choice) the flood, sitting high and dry on the Managership of the aforesaid Dramat, with stenographers, bell-hops and A. D. T. boys innumerable at his beck and call; more often beck, for Almet goes without saying. [35] HISTORY or THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN Sloan (intimate, "Sam") Colt, in his new-found capacity of Musical Club Manager, was soon gathering in the silvery notes so necessary to that organization, and became a popular extra- campus character at all concerts henceforth, standing in the box office with a pleasant smile and a white tie on. In view of the Glee Club's last trip and first dry one, we don't know whether to call him an Abolitionist or Prohibitionist, but take it from us, he's a thorough Democrat. Lastly, but not leastly, the ever reliable Tom Daniels tightened the girth and vaulted into the saddle of the Dramat Secretaryship, where he has sat ever since, finding the Dramat a tractable beastie "after all she do kick up a bit at first, sir." Meanwhile Ken Rand, Fran Bergen and Nibs Noyes had been polishing the Lit., the two former acquiring considerable polish in the course of the year. (You'll have to take my word for them. Nibs' drool comes next to mine, and you can see for yourself.) George Hamilton now that "The Old Red Cow is Dead," he won't mind my mentioning it was contributing industriously to that sheet, mainly advice to Freshmen "for the children must be fed," as he so sagely said in the exquisite lyric ascribed to him. Harold Saylor was also beginning to show interest in the Crew Situation, Senior Eating Tables at Commons, and Poached Eggs of all Colleges, while Mel Price, in his assiduity to make the Record, made the very interesting one of two frozen ears in one trip down to the printer's on a stormy day. The editor, who had sent him on the chilling errand, gazed for a moment at his red elephantine protuber- ances, then taking out a T-square, measured the swollen audi- tory organs from tip to tap. He then marked off in the credit book the space thus determined, and Price, with the largest space credit ever, made the board. It was an ear and ear finish. Emerson Tuttle, being closely wrapt in his artistic studies, avoided the freezing fate of his confrere in gloom-dispelling, and, by signing his initials to all his work, was considerably H. E. T. up most of the time. One notable event preceded the spring elections in our [36] SOPHOMORE YEAR Sophomore year the revivification of the Anonymous Pam- phlet. Prof. J. M. Berdan, wishing to show his Age of Pope Course (two hours, twice a week; subject-matter same as Daily Themes) how Addison did the trick, had surreptitiously printed and expeditiously distributed a little sheet of high literary excellence called "The Yale Observer." Its purpose, as stated, was to be "neither very witty nor very wise, but so-so" though it was both of the former. (I did not put that in for drag, but for verity.) Be that as it may. The writer wielded wiser than he knew, for the next year that well-known Eaves- dropper, Scandalmonger, and Bulldog Tribe came into being, whose name is legion, and whose destination is darkness. Pro- fessor Berdan was the unwitting Voltaire or Rousseau (we never took the Renaissance) to the Dantons and Marats of the Neo-Junioric school of incendiaries. May nineteen-sixteen yield us a Charlotte Corday! As spring came on, wars and rumors of wars floated around our erstwhile peaceful though Sophomoric community. Genial Purchaser of this volume (it is never "Gentle Reader" in this age of Mammon), did you note thus far in this second fytte, a lack of Unity? Have no fear, I am veering around to him again. For at this point there enters, to the already thor- oughly embroiled social situation, a Machiavelli of mysterious manipulation. Enter The Walking-Delegate of The O'Tooles, Capt. J. Bishop. The O'Tooles, as mentioned above, were the occupants of that now famous ground floor suite in Lawrance. It is unnecessary to rename them ; by their fruits ye shall know them. And how their plans bore fruit! Beyond the wildest dreams of capitalization, or, as Kipling hath it: "Beyond the whing of the Laundry-box, through Oval darkness thrown, Further than rebel Junior dar'd, or roystering Fresh lay prone, Sit they with those who knows, who knows what daring they have shown?" [37] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN A strictly worded but broadly interpreted campaign agree- ment prohibits me from giving the preliminary steps toward the consummation of the Great Deal, and perhaps 'tis better so. I would hate to bore a reader with statistics. At any rate, one fine Monday afternoon in March, when even bridge-games palled because of the nervousness of the participants, someone, in passing by a certain ground floor window, heard Somebody A RAINY TAP DAY SOPHOMORE YEAR say to several other Bodies: "Then we'll stick together, won't we ?" To which Earth repeated the loud amen : "You're damn right!!" Now Somebody-else, while peacefully walking out toward the tennis courts the afternoon before, had seen a slip of paper stuck under a threshold cranny in a very compromis- ing position, and had, simply from curiosity, taken up said slip and perused its inscriptions. To Somebody-else's astonish- ment, it bore a marked resemblance to the handwriting of [38] SOPHOMORE YEAR another Somebody; but its brazen purport resembled nothing seen or heard of before or since. So when Someone, in passing by that ground floor window on Monday afternoon, heard a half an odd dozen voices assenting in chorus, he began to con- nect the written with the spoken word. By that time it was too late to change matters. But still another Somebody ran and told. Hence this chronicle. We shall not long forget that crisp, cold night in March; the pious and indignant Senior meeting on Vanderbilt Fence at six-thirty; the hotfoot despatching of a prohibiting emis- sary to the other end of the Campus at six- forty; the self- incarceration in coat-closets of a whole campaign committee at six- forty-one ; the disgruntled return of said emissary at six- forty-five ; the gradual emergence of sentinels and campaigners from six- forty-six to fifty-nine; the Holdups for Holdoffs they never were at seven. By the time the Bat tell clock had ceased striking, a new page in Yale History had been struck off and a new topic for campus conversation had arisen. To this day, particularly in the mid-fall and late winter, it is still a favorite. The O'Toole Deal of the spring of 1912. The only Yale Rumpus that never got into the newspapers was ours to witness, classmates ; we have lived long enough. Immediately after the aforementioned spring racket, some rather more serious elections took place. After the Class Deacons had performed their priest-like task of pure addition to our ballots, we found the following men enrolled among the Possibilities : Morg Noyes, competitor for Baseball Managership. Henry Hobson, competitor for Crew Managership. John Kilbreth, he of the Spearmint name, competitor for Track Managership. Stoddard King, Fence Orator. By this time the weather was fairly well balmying. Fellows began to count "only one more Saturday without a ball game" ; bock beer was on tap (no Yale springtide drool is complete [39] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN without that diabolic touch!) ; Huyler's lured the Waggonites of an afternoon, even as Ned Buttress' cart lured Tubby Clark and Co. to many pleasant impromptu coaching parties around the Campus drive. Old Joe Bartlett's express wagon also did yeoman service on many a "Seeing Yale" tour, conducted by Bish and chaperoned by Newberry, Newberry and Newson, or, as we always called them for short, Romulus, Remus and the Wolf. We made the Fence our own in the grand old Yale way, allowing none but the orthodox songs to emanate from its sacred rails "Wake Freshmen," "Katy Malone," and "Shall I Wasting," being the most often sinned against. We opened up the Corinthian Yacht Club with a flurry of foam on the Piel-dark deep, as friend Homer (not Swihart, nor Dubs, but good, old Homer, Limpy's friend) has it. We journeyed Yale Field-ward, to watch the Blossom and the Harpham and the Cornish. The Gile, the Brown, and the Dyer, all engaged in their engrossing "Swat-the-Fly" campaign. Class crews put forth on the harbor, class ball teams cut up on Yale Field. Our little band of village cut-ups went so far as to capture the Class championship, and incidentally, their 1914 numerals ; sing glory to their name. Gurney Smith, Jack Loman and Mac Hayden pounded the pellet into Ty Cobb's capacious paws behind the plate; Homer Swihart, Life President of the Inter- collegiate Bald-headed Men's League, held down the primary pillow; Tubby Clark, he of the dachshund build, performed a like restraining office on the secondary cushion; Yale Stevens, he of the rah-rah cognomen, s. s.-d in the box-score write-up ; and Pop Evans occupied the tertiary throne. In the outer gardens, Nick Carter, Sloan Colt, Bill Marting, and Ev Davis, the latter festooned with the appropriate smile-ax, were attrac- tively intertwined (three at a time, of course, you stickler for pure athletics!). Altogether, they were a charmingly aggres- sive combination, to purloin the Harvard phraseology. They were there, gentlemen classmates ! By their hats ye have known them. [40] SOPHOMORE YEAR Omega Lambda Chi came. Cooney gave a realistic imper- sonation of a steel and concrete North River pier by acting as anchor in our vs. 1915 tug-of-war, Bish being the tug. Bert Whitehill and Eddie Phelps did their facile three-legged stunt and raced all comers off the Campus. Almet Jenks, Gurney Smith, Clem Gile and Wash Patterson acted as traffic cops, and cowed the roaring mob with their stuffed clubs and cork hel- mets. The rest of the bibulously inclined (not including our policemen, of course, who never drink when on duty and they are on duty all the time) went to the festivities disguised as Christians, their costumes being voted the most original ever seen on the Campus. At the time of going to press our last Omega Lambda Chi had not been pulled off, so no odoriferous comparisons are available. Last scene of all that ends this strange, eventful Sophomore History is second childishness and mere oblivion ! In the middle of exams the tension snapped. Once more our eternal unity. The Bish trotted forth upon the Campus stage with the famous series of circum-Campus relays. The old cinder track around the historic dockweed patch, now, alas, bricked over and conventionalized to the n-th degree, was dotted every night with quarter-milers in all stages of nakedness. "Around the Campus for thirty dollars a side !" was the cry, and amid crashing of water bottles and laundry boxes, the race would be on. The stars smiled benignantly down while messmates and mismates, like Carp and Tubby Clark raced against time and each other, endeavoring to lower the Unity's fifty-seven seconds flat and clad in costumes that would put the most hyper-Gallic chorus to the blush. The more effete Juniors copied us but with bicycles instead of our sturdy moccasin- encased feet and B. V. D.'d limbs. "Mental and physical effi- ciency go hand in hand," as educators from President Eliot to Annette Kellermann have maintained ; tracing prehistoric ances- try by day and racing historic posterity by night, we weathered exam week, and the night before the last exam, gathered, for the last time, as a Yale Sophomore Class. [41] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN The occasion, of course, was that melancholy delivery of the Fence into the eager hands of the Freshmen, our successors to the blissful and eventful Sophomoredom which we had just drained to the last drops. Behind us lay the most jarring, the most interesting, the most instructive year in the whole course, Lindsay, Nibs and Dick to the contrary, notwithstand- ing. Before us lay the grim prospect of a year of watchful waiting on that barren, barrack-like Oval, the responsibilities of the College on our shoulders and, possibly, at the end the rewards of the College on our shoulder blades. It was a sad moment race half run, course half done, life's span half spun. But Stod King came to the rescue, as that genial humorist has an infallible habit of doing. In a never-to-be-forgotten Fence Oration, he castigated the well-known and widely adver- tised Class of 1915 so thoroughly that not even Martin Luther and Garibaldi could blame them for rebellion. It was a stitch in time for had not Stod belabored them so wisely and well, there might by now be no Yale College for -our sons unborn to hail. With his last "Let me present you, gentlemen the Fence !" we stepped down, sallied forth for Europe and points unknown, and left the world to darkness and Sophomoric icon- oclasticism. The last Yale Class to know the old Mory's ; the last Yale Class to remember Alumni Hall ; the last Yale Class to repulse a Freshman Fence Rush; the last Yale Class to tread the Campus cinder-path, we graduaturi vos salutamus, men of Yale, and our blessing be upon you ! Newbold Noyes, take up the story Of how we trod the path to glory ! H. ROSWELL HAWLEY. [42] if Si 1 JUNIOR YEAR I HAVE glanced back over the achievements of our Class during the years 1912-1913, and there is but one desire that now permeates my being. I want to write an epic. The dun garb of mere prose makes even my dispassionate nature cringe ; the setting of a beautiful diamond in brass would show a no greater lack of appreciation of the fitness of things than does the setting I must perforce give my subject. For George Patterson, that adamantine taskmaster, has decreed that I am not to be carried away by the possibilities of my heroic subject and with his stern injunction, "Give 'em facts and a touch of sentiment," ringing in my unwilling ears, I set myself to my duty. What the possibilities of the correct treat- ment would have been, you may judge for yourself from the following beginning, which was cut off in its early prime by Pat's decree. Dean Jones, the Thunder-wielder, then did swear A mighty oath, "Lo summon my cohorts! For Homer mocks and Tacitus doth jeer. Dread Economics at our very gates Doth scoff. Too long has the attack been spared, Send messages to summon my allies, And, by great Zeus, we'll teach these taunting foes, [45] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN That Yale but little fears their challenge proud." Northward and southward, east and west there flew The summons, and throughout the mighty land Where Yale holds sway, we heard the Great King's call, Nor paused, though pleasures beckoned on each side, But to stern duty turned our eager steps. "Dean Jones has called away away !" The cry Swept like a storm across the tremb'ling land, And with a brief farewell one last long sigh We rushed to take our places at his side. That is as far as I got, and I like to think that I could have done better when once well under way. But even this brief intro- duction will, I feel sure, give you a dazzling glimpse of what Pat is denying you. Yet, though prose is the enforced medium, even so disguised, these deeds of ours will form, I must believe, a sort of hymn ! To sum up the material contained in the foregoing epic spasm, the notices that the College would resume its ministra- tions to our intellectual needs on September the twenty-fifth, insinuated themselves upon our unwilling consciousnesses some- time prior to that date. So we came back. There was an epi- demic of handshaking for a brief space of time, and the mem- bers of the Class of 1914 slipped into their various grooves. In a curiously unexpected manner the vacation immediately drifted into the vague realms of memory and we turned our hands to the more immediate tasks before us. Someone, somewhere, at some time long passed, a man who was more bitterly disposed to cynical humor than was ever Swift or Pope, wrote a song which deals with Juniors who took their ease, while smoking pipes and singing glees. I have heard this quaintly woven myth sung. And I have learned to wonder just how long ago it was written and have wished that the author could have been here to watch 1914 take its ease. He would have had such a splendid time laughing at his own joke! Out on the football field Cooney, Ketcham, Warren, Avery, Wheeler, Harbison, Cornish, Marting and Gile were starting [46] JUNIOR YEAR their labors which were later rewarded with posi- tions on the "Varsity." Be it here stated that Ketcham received, at a later date, a position on the All-American team and Cooney was placed among the second divi- sion of that stellar aggregation. With another confrere treating athletics as a single sub- ject for your considera- tion, I shall merely give, in each case, a cursory remark or two on the facts which seem most pertinent to us today. And may I also here call your attention to the fact that, boasting no eminence as a humorist, I will leave it to those of my confreres who have recog- nized ability in that line in one form or another to supply RUFUS KING IN "FRUITS or CULTURE" A ROOM ON THE OVAL [47] HISTORY or THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN ON REVIEW you with whatever humor the four histories as a whole should contain. However, I am bound to confess that my decision is not quite as philanthropic as it would at first appear to be, for though I have made a fairly complete series of investigations, no one in the Class can recall a humorous incident worthy of note save one in which Rufus King and I were involved, and which is therefore ineligible for treatment. The Class, with the admi- rable steadiness which has always been its most striking attri- bute, was too busy making legitimate history to furnish that type usually associated with class books.* * I rather expect to receive the swimming team insignia for this masterful crawl. [48] JUNIOR YEAR The fall term passed with startling rapidity, any chance of monotony being obviated by an exciting though not wholly successful football season; the early work in crew; the elimina- tion trials of the musical clubs; track; and the final laps of the Lit. competition. Busy with either these or some other extra curriculum activities, the Class still found time for relaxation. With the chance of appearing one of that most condemned of all Yale types the men who betray sentiment outside the objects toward which sentiment is conventional- ized I must say here that for many of us, splendid hours were spent in getting to know those whose friendship we sought. Somehow I feel that this was the biggest thing in all Junior year; the development of the friendships which we had heard were to be our heritage here, but which up to this time had not been experienced in their fullness. There were long walks back in the byways which lead from the dusty highways ; there were talks of an evening when we learned that hitherto unsus- pected individuals held the same ideals and thoughts that we had thought peculiar to ourselves and, so thinking, sought to hide. And the Class unconsciously found itself welded together in a fine comradeship which only these hours could have accomplished. Levermore, P. Dodge, Parker, Hoadley, Smith, Lomas, Blossom and Innis survived the series of cuts to which the Glee Club was subjected, and Phelps, Spalding, Morrill, Herb and Ralph Semler, Hill, and Johnson tested and proved the old maxim relative to the survival of the fittest on the Banjo and Mandolin organizations. To even the most casual observer it thus becomes evident at once, that no small part of the suc- cess enjoyed by these clubs was due to the efforts of our Class. To provide a tyrolean yodler and a miniature performer on a miniature banjo on demand is no small feat! Be it known that Bill Innis of the dulcet bass and other eminent qualifica- tions was later elected leader of the choristers for the ensuing year, while E. Phelps, the same prodigy referred to above, [49] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN THE OLDEST or COLLEGE DAILES au Naturel received the highest honor the Banjo and Mandolin clubs could confer. S. Colt was elected manager. Work on the Christmas play Tolstoi's "Fruits of Cul- ture" had been steadily progressing, and the final cast selected to represent Yale's talent in the histrionic field included Fields, H. T. Rogers, P. Newberry and R. King. Though the latter is placed in a modest position in the order here used, it was he who was elected to lead the club in 1914. Because of his intimacy with the future president's eccentrici- ties and a slight ability to cope with them, rather than for any individual ability, the present scribe received the election of vice president. Almet Jenks succeeded to the title of manager of the organization, and Stoddard King became press iminagrr. While the above-mentioned gentry were enjoying themselves to a greater or less degree, the remainder of the Class was celebrating the Christmas season throughout the country and it was not till the subsequent return to the Oval took place, that material suitable for this historical sketch began again to be furnished. [50] JUNIOR YEAR Back to the winter term we came the winter term, which by all the rights of tradition should have been remarkable only for the intensity of its monotonous drudgery. Yet with the enthusiasm which has ever been dominant in the Class, we threw off the cloak which should, we were told, be muffling our spirits, and entered vigorously upon our separate and various tasks. Among the many interests which claimed the attention of various members of the Class at this season were the Apollo musical clubs, the Dramat smoker, the closing Lit. competi- tion, a few sterling games of craps, squash, wrestling, and the preparing of the final lists of dances for those who, scattered throughout the snow-clad land, awaited impatiently for the advent of the Prom. The members of 1914 who found places on those strangely heterogeneous aggregations, known as the Apollo Clubs, be- cause someone else with a sense of humor had the original task of providing a name for the organizations, are too numerous to JUNIOR PROM. COMMITTEE [51] THE TAFT PROCESSION AT ITS INCEPTION ON in i ( )\ \i IN JUNIOR YEAR JUNIOR YEAR be individually named. Suffice it to say that both clubs were 1914, with a few rather insignificant exceptions. Up in the gymnasium Captain Swihart, S. Smith and Cobb were monopolizing three regular positions on the basket ball quintet. And downstairs in the domain of Izzy the Emperor, Avery, Maclntyre, Thomas, Kelley, and S. Dodge were taking falls out of less advanced opponents. May I say here, with pride which is pardonable because of my intimacy with the littlest champion of them all that the championship of the East was the reward for their strenuous efforts. And now comes the Prom. Yet, when an incident has become legendary, to subject it to an historical treatment seems lack- ing in delicacy of perception. This Prom, of 1913 is still mentioned with bated breath whenever champion long-distance dancers get together. There never was there never can again be its duplicate. I sigh as I write this, and yet it is better so, I must believe. Yet each of us has had the distinction of seeing ladies who danced thirty-five miles in one "evening" and lived to tell the story to future generations. Thanks to Tom Daniels and his able assistants, Ketcham, Cornish, Walker, Art Clark, Blossom, Schieffelin, and A. Evans, the Class is able to claim with no possibility of contradiction the most successful Promenade in the history of the College. May I add, as an afterthought, that perhaps the above-mentioned gentlemen will see the justice of conceding part of the credit to those visitors who smiled every foot of the thirty-five miles, and clapped with numbed hands for more when "Good Night, Ladies" had been played for the last time at the Taft at twelve-fifteen in the afternoon. When it was all over, there came the aftermath of labor made slightly irksome by the recentness of our few days of relaxa- tion. But soon we slipped back into our grooves and found that the Oval, even when utterly bereft of all save memories of those who had claimed it as their own for three brief days, was a wholly attractive place of a winter's evening. Somehow, to me at least, the winter nights there stand out as [53] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN one of the happiest times of the year. Perhaps it is because a wood fire and the wind whipping the snow against the window draws boys or men, if you will closer together. I do not know. But I look back upon that time as one which I would not exchange for more than seems quite logical. I wonder if it is so with you. The Lit. competition closed with Rand leading and Tuttle, Bergen, Paradise, and Noyes filling out the board. Douglas withdrew his name though he also was well up in the competition. So the winter wore on, one day slipping into the next with startling rapidity. Any vague chance of boredom was dis- persed by the revolutionary attitude of the Class of 1915 in regard to Yale's social system. Though our Class, at the time, came into no direct contact with them over the subject, it is needless to say that a lively interest was aroused by their attitude, regarded, as it was, in the various lights of wisdom, folly, presumption and self-sacrifice. But the movement has been too generally advertised to warrant anything more than mere mention in an article of this type ! Easter came and went, and its passing found us back on the Oval, with a curious undercurrent of excitement evidencing itself throughout the Class. Baseball, with Captain Blossom directing, claimed the attention of the College from an athletic standpoint. Cornish, Gile, Harpham, C. Brown, and Dyer had won positions as regulars, and 1914 felt that it was admirably represented. Of the season, suffice it to say that it was the most memorable in the history of Yale baseball. On the track, Cooney, Douglas, Scotten, Harbison, and Bob Cook were proving their value to the team, and Gates, Stanley, Allen Evans, Lockwood, Kenyon, and S. Johnson were representing the Class in tennis. The fifteenth of May was soon upon us and passed with no startling phenomena to distinguish it from any other day of that admirable month. The Class went to and came away from [54] JUNIOR YEAR the Oak tree with a feeling of utter confidence in the discrimi- nation and justice which were shown there. There is but one other topic which must be mentioned before I put aside my blunted pencil and turn out the midnight oil. I mention it with feelings of extreme reticence. But be it said that had Bill Harriman seen his way clear to putting more than one 1914 man upon the crew, if he could have found a few more Lippincotts, the opinion might well be hazarded that the outcome on the Thames would have been less bitter. Which is just another way of saying Bill proved worthy of his seat in the boat. So ends my task. I have only given the barest outline of the larger things that went to make up the Junior year for us.' The little things, that played important parts in the lives of each man, are what went to make that year splendid in some intangible way. As we look back, as each of us looks back, there are little, outwardly insignificant scenes that will always lurk in our minds the trifles that have taught us tolerance and sympathy and appreciation of our classmates the finest large group of men we know of. I would not write of these moments if I could. Yet it can do no harm to ask you to look back with me over experiences that seemed little at the time yet somehow loom larger with even the slightly increased perspective of one year. I do ask you. For the chance to sit by myself for a few hours and review, month by month, the happenings that went to make up our life of a year ago, is one for which I am very grateful. That chance is each of ours for the wishing. And in closing, let me say that which has become all too evident to you, I fear, the Class of 1914 is far more profi- cient at making than at writing history. NEWBOLD NOTES. [55 Kite THK WINTER OF SKNIOR YKAK SENIOR YEAR IGNITY and other graces that supposedly beset Seniors, like the leopard's spots, come early. This history, there- fore must begin instantly upon the end of Junior year: such splendid creatures as Seniors cannot lapse into nothingness during the summer. That would upset every tradition of sweatered fiction. But to narrate, Henry Ketcham, whose name is variously woven through this tale, indecorously mounts a freight car at daybreak. He yawns, and stretches, and the engineer, presumably heeding a signal, nearly precipitates a disaster. Harold Saylor almost drove cows to pasture in mid- ocean. And Gurney Smith, who also went abroad, experienced some trouble in changing English shillings into Scotch mac- dougalls. If the brains of the rest of the Class had been inspected at any time in the vacation, with the same scrutiny that the Romans used in consulting the entrails of the cow, the only revelations fit for augury would have been sunburnt, or enthralled. There was the usual alliance between heat and hedonism. Nor was it the disparagement of the Thames that made both inevitable. The delegates at Northfield, to be sure, weltered in the torrid breezes of conscience. But even Bill Warren regained his composure in time to exploit the facetious before the lace and ruffles of East River. [57] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN Perhaps we had better leave the Seniors until September. The European expeditions, otherwise, would soon make this a Baedeker, or the American adventures, some of them, at least- would quickly make it a hotel advertisement. But, before seek- ing New Haven, we must mention, or exploit, a certain street brawl that occurred in Portsmouth, N. H. Sloan Colt, Clem Gile, Tom Holt and several others of equal gravity, having turned seamen and gained considerable maritime experience and confidence, the customary wayward rolling of the tongue and rolling swagger included, determined to seek terrestrial solace at a local moving picture show. They were not disappointed. But after enjoying a few minutes of scenic delight, they fell into legal difficulties. An officer said that the little man, too, had to pay full fare. Tom briskly made a seamanlike and ample protest. Ejection instantly followed, and once outside, the mariners began to demoralize the Portsmouth police force. Two officers reeled before sturdy fists, and Tom, who had only encouraged the fighting was captured, while the real com- batants escaped. The small offender was bailed and fabulously fined. Now for New Haven ! One nameless classmate missed the Bar Harbor Express catastrophe on September 1 by eight minutes. The first Senioric arrivals missed it by eight days. Then our burly classmates fitly paved our way. On arriving at the gym, Bill Marting merely took off his coat and trousers ; the football armament, like the pajamas of an overtime sleeper, was waiting underneath. Ben Avery was horny-handed from farming, "Cooch" from running a motor-boat, and Nate Wheeler from winning the Intercollegiate golf championship. But the tempers of all were unperverted. Our heroes on the football field toiled under a blistering sun, until they became mere minions of perspiration and stiffness. Every Senior in town had a "charley-horse." They did not even limp to the station to meet their arriving "classmates." But the worshippers came, anyway, despite the unheeding idols. There was a day of aching hands and common- [58] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN SENIOR PROM. COMMITTEE places, and the customary rites to the god "Principius." The parading may have lacked gaiety and abandon, but the effect of torchlights on sunburned faces was superb and grotesque. Ev Davis' forehead twinkled light and dark, and Admiral Hobson's sober countenance was distorted into a most improper post-Bacchic leer. When the first Freshman fell, Dick Hill, forgetting himself, exclaimed "Oh, la!" and instantly he and "Cooch" began an intimacy that even boarding at Commons could not break. And when the dust from the stampeding of the undergraduate cattle had settled, Dwight Hall emerged with its customary salt above, and savor below, and would not wait for Lorrin Shepard, the president, to return and open it. The News, mainspring of the undergraduate world, began to appear. The Glee Club once more conducted its accustomed trials, where Bill InnN was forced to listen to the croakings [60] SENIOR YEAR of many a tuneless bird. And the machine, at last competently guided, was in motion. It gathered momentum so slowly for several weeks that nothing happened. K. Rand, deserted by his Bergen, con- tinued to live at the Taft. Boz Hawley aped the eagle, in appearance, rather than the owl. But there was hooting in Haughton. Tom Daniels began his ceaseless march of con- quest in New Haven society. Billy Lippincott recovered from palsy. Dick Dyer was forced, to the great sorrow of his friends, to forsake learning for the dove-cotes of Chester, because of feeble eyes. His departure was but the preface to a later migration from a certain entry in Vanderbilt. The Class indulged in further lamentation over Professor Tinker's absence, and particularly over his amazing discrimi- THIENNIAL COMMITTEE [61] SOME SNAPSHOTS OF SENIORS NEWBOLD NOYES AS "GRINGOIRE" WINIFRED YESTER IN 'SHADES OF NIGHT' Louis XII IN GRINGOIRE" THREE 1914 DRAMATIC STARS HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN nation against Yale's pride, when the class behind was so much better qualified for a professorial slight. Professor Morris, too, fell subject to an unexpressed rebuke in not giving his Horace and Lucretius. But the Class, despite disappointment, with the exception of a certain nonchalant member of Phi Beta Kappa and several others rooming not far from the subse- quently whiskered Bishop, went to work. Even Pete Newberry and Carter Phelps sometimes went to class. With recitations once more established, Osborn Hall, the "two-horned toad," leapt into prominence. Even outside of classes, Seniors flocked there, casting ballots. At the first elec- tion, the Class re-elected Henry Ketcham, Doc Cornish and Morgan Noyes. They made the Senior Council without loss of constituency from any preceding election. The Council was made representative of Yale. Ben Avery was chosen, and the three remaining places on the Council were filled by Stod King, Jack Blossom and Bill Schieffelin. There is always something facetious in statistics, or even in bare facts, where truth can grin at itself, fearing no lies. It is true that Almet Jenks was elected historian, that Stod King was elected orator, that George Patterson was elected Class Secretary. Hence the magnificence of this volume. The Class should thank him for Herculean labors past and yet to come. How these men could be chosen while football held such sway, one can but vaguely understand. But how the Class could have elected unathletic K. Rand, entirely on faith, will ever be a mystery. In choosing him Class Poet, the Seniors did not bestow more honor than do cats in beholding kings. They merely saved the Class from walking into the world Midas- eared. The volume entitled, "The Dirge of the Sea Children," is the one achievement in which the Class of 1914 will take enduring pride. It was about this time, local elections ended, and national not begun, that perhaps the most notable Senior institution founded by the present Seniors leapt forth. The Apostles, a temperate, hungry clan, began gregariously devouring unhal- [64] SENIOR YEAR lowed fare opposite the Yale Elizabethan Club. In clamoring to join, the entire Class lost its bashfulness. But the Apos- tolic succession was rigidly preserved. The epicureans, one by one, were admitted. Kenny Moore grew dangerously stout. Coach Harriman almost insisted on his deportation to Corn- Kendall Bushnell fairly rolled. This splendid band mons. THE SENIOR COUNCIL flourished until February, when sheer stoutness forced it to dissolve. And where these gastronomic giants formerly fed entered the Sheffield hordes. The only light in October that even aspired to outshine this Apostolic glare flickered at Princeton. Seniors, luckily, had little part in it. The foolish virgins, who neglected to bring the victorious oil, were either graduates or underclassmen. Ken Moore, indeed, was forced to ride in the wake of misery. [65] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN Herm Rogers pulled a splendid oar, but was hopelessly impeded by his seven companions and by the English stroke. A few days later the organ of the undergraduate world pealed in the committee's ear; and the rowing talent of the world was quickly called. Several others, too, took to the water, or at least the marshes. Julian Bishop, the unofficial mascot of the Class, John Banks and one or two adjacent, but transitory spirits, entered a conspiracy with Dean J-n-s, for the annihilation of Ducks. Expeditions started from the Vanderbilt suite, where the entire party slept, for the wilds of Connecticut, at three. When the daybreak ushered in hilarity, the Dean, it was rumored, excused a mark for every bird that fell. John Banks then conceived the idea of shooting clay pigeons. Possibly the tremor thus provoked enjoined the Dean to muzzle up the Prom. Mr. Chittenden, like love in Catullus, sneezed approbation right and left. But elsewhere volcanic and instaneous objections appeared, and quickly disappeared. Between regulations and the Junior Class, the Prom, seemed doomed. The realization of it was a distinct surprise. Bill Schieffelin, meanwhile, vented his political instincts at the New York polls. He was assisted by several other Seniors, civically disposed. Pat and Tom Daniels fell heir to Bowery fighting; each received a few stitches. Clem Gile's knee was wrenched. At the Field, too, our matinee idols, one by one, were afflicted. The succession of injuries devastated the ranks of football playing Seniors. The most unfortunate fell upon the Cornish jaw. With that smashed, the game was lost; and afterwards, although the Thors and Odins, and all their foot- ball underlings and overlings, tried to look pleasant, and to exhale encouragement, their smiles seemed sadly mechanical. Ketch's team, indeed, began to improve; and depression van- ished like fog before a burning sun. The College was carried by enthusiasm to the point of ferocity. Jack Appleton, one of last year's left-overs, justified his presence in our Class by kindling that fire of exuberance which so quickly spread into [66] THE LIT. Tin MKWS THE COURANT THE RECORD HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN a conflagration. It was several days before the Princeton game, when Jack decided upon a parade. He hired a band. It started from Vanderbilt trailing but a few bubbles. It returned to Welch, having traversed the Campus, York Street and Sheff., followed by the entire University. Not content with an hour of cheering under Ketch's window, it encamped in front of the Taft, where the 1888 Champions were dining, and immortalized itself with noise. Surely this helped the football playing Seniors to befool Princeton. In the Harvard game, Ketch, Bill Warren, Ben Avery, Bill Marting, Cooch Cooney, and Nate Wheeler joined with the others from different classes, in giving their strength and courage utterly, despite predestined failure. It was with the fervor of the Whiffenpoofs, who, I should have mentioned, made their usual cloven-hoofed gesticulations at the Brown game, that "Goose" Dun, Jack Blossom, George Lord and Ev Davis left town for Thanksgiving. They de- parted at once, but separately. Others would fain have done likewise. Their example, indeed, was widely imitated. Some- what later in the year the Senior Class seemed to have trouble in surviving an epidemic of engagements. Many rushlights of love, unknown and hitherto unsuspected, revealed their statis- tical gleam. But the Class could not bother with such stuff and nonsense, despite the song which speaks of breaking hearts in Senior year, and instead rejoiced that Ketcham and Bill Marting made the second All-American. Singing and acting, that followed soon, bridged the vacation with traveling delight. The posthumous writings of S. Sloan Colt will doubtless describe the separate exploits in a Southern trip. The Glee Club justly received much democratic applause, but the Mandolin Club of Eddie Phelps was the best, so critics thought, that ever represented Yale. And the three one-act plays of the Dramat, prompted by the Mitchell Moose, where the two Kings, combined with Nibs Noyes, brought delight to many an Eastern or Western playgoer. It was shortly after the vacation that the Yale Daily News, [70] OVER THE CHARLES TO THE STADIUM LINING UP SCRIMMAGE A MOVING PICTURE HARVARD GAME, 1913. DANIELS AT THE MEGAPHONE HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN upon the insistence of the Senior editors, gave the University a lecture on a current subject Cow Boy Ballads, by Pro- fessor John Lomax. Then Lorrin Shepard was elected presi- dent of the Intercollegiate Temperance League, with Bill Warren as proselyte. Annie Russell came and went. Bishop vented further imprecations in the Dean's office. A few more Seniors successively filled the position of basket ball captain, and then there came the mid-year exams. Our Seven Solons here found enough of the ethically unmentionable to justify an honor system. They went to the useless trouble and expense of creating one, but some people felt it wise to have dishonesty observed. The Council found horrors within examinations, and it found still others, more terrible, outside. It had to shoot at larger and less theoretical game in, and not far from, the Taft. The Grill was giving forth contagion to the under- graduate world. But exotic dancing and liquor can be com- pounded into no mentionable tale. There was, thanks to the vigilance of the Taft directors and the Dean, a speedy and lasting reformation, happy for even the few departing. The Prom, followed merrily and unsuspecting: Yale grew fair and full of dancing. The condensation of it into two days seemed not at all amiss: it never flagged. The brief vacation afterwards permitted some recovery from physical exhaustion, and a Prom.-floor not overcrowded. The squash team, graced by L. Bradford, A. Evans, and others, then began its round of social athletic contests. The 1914 News Board retired bloody but unbowed. Its chairman and Morgan Noyes enlightened the returning graduates. Forbes-Robertson played Hamlet, on a certain Saturday night, and bade New Haven a last farewell and Hugh Harbison, who had accompanied part of the Elizabethan Club, was instantly called "cultured." The swimming, basket ball, wrestling, gym and hockey teams performed with some success. McHcnry sang, "The mountaineers, they flap their ears." Sigma Xi elected Homer Hasenpflug Dubs, Ben Avery, Van Noyes Ver- planck, Gill Jones, Lorrin Shepard, and Bill Schieffelin. The [72] SENIOR YEAR Senior Statistics, which shortly appeared, proved all such statistics fatuous and absurd, and, it must be confessed, proved the Class very conventional. "Crossing the Bar," Jim Don- nelly and Sothern were forced to endure still another re-election. "Lorna Doone" was high among the favorite novels, while, as a prose writer, Blackmore, its author, received hardly a single vote. Other singular absurdities, out of consideration for the Class, will not be recorded. Of the large men, Cooney afforded pleasure and gained popularity by playing baby in the hole, and Hugh Harbison won fame by a gigantic put of the shot in Washington. Of the small, Boz Hawley closed a delightful year of the Record with interminable eloquence as toastmaster. K. Rand actually appeared at the Lit. banquet, and did not sleep, though one speaker repeated himself for fifty-nine minutes. This was a Yale record which even the undergraduates present were not over eager to see established. Nor were they more anxious to hear the uncouth remarks which tainted part of Phi Beta Kappa's democratic feast. It is with an episode where Ik Crane and Bob Scotten un- intentionally figured in a noon-day shower bath, or with the appearance of William Butler Yeats, that this history, as a history, closes. What lies behind Fool's Day, each Senior can most fitly picture. Athletic championships which, we pro- test, are not Yale's greatest need, we still can hope, will come during the spring. Glorious and unexpected development, we trust, will also come to every Senior and with it the enthu- siasm that will drive 1914 far into the waiting world. Surely the Class has men fit for leading every splendid work. Affairs can boast the ceaseless energy of John Kilbreth, George Patterson, and Lawry Marks. Scholarship has re- vealed Kendrick Burrough, the classicist, Warren Lowenhaupt, the philosopher, and Stoddard King. And never before, to our knowledge, has any class produced so much undergraduate creative force. Each art has its fitting exponent. K. Rand the poet, Bergen the wit, Fred Kugelman, Lindsay Bradford, [73] PRESIDENT WOOLSEY AND THE OLD LIBRA it v LIGHTO AND SHADOWS SENIOR YEAR the humorists, Almet Jenks the playwright, Emerson Tuttle and Gordon Aymar, the artists, Rufus King and Newbold Noyes as actors, and Arthur Hague the musician, the only undergraduate ever elected to the American Guild of Organists, Dale Parker and Bill Innis, singers, and Eddie Phelps playing upon nearly every known string instrument the work of these men, of such promise, has added largely to the pleasure of Senior year. Of this year the depth and breadth and meaning lie too near the heart to bear the probing of another's hand. RICHARD ALEXANDER DOUGLAS. [75] ATHLETICS Athletics are not, as some of the newspapers would have it, the chief purpose for which Yale exists. The Campus is something more than a baseball field, and the "football king," who "goes punting around all day" is more familiar in the pages of puerile literature than in real life. But just as truly, athletics do form one of the most important features of modern college life, and success in them is rightly accorded full meas- ure of admiration and gratitude. As we leave New Haven, among the keenest and the happiest memories we take with us are of certain tense and throbbing moments when, although perhaps only mere lookers-on, we have felt the defenders of Harvard or Princeton weaken and the tide of battle turn, momentarily or ultimately, in favor of Yale. For the wonder- ful and satisfying thing about it all is, that in these moments all Yale men are one, all feel the tug of the same intense desire, all are merged and submerged in one common cause. And we leave college truer to Yale and truer to each other because of these rare moments. "Moral victories," "lessons from defeat," "sport for sport's sake" notwithstanding, athletics are valueless unless played to win. And judged by this standard, the most optimistic must conclude that athletics at Yale, while the Class of 1914 has been in College, have been at their lowest ebb. Stripped of sentiment, shorn of extenuations and excuses, the bare facts speak for themselves. In football we have seen Princeton defeated but once, Harvard never. In baseball we have seen, in the three seasons we have witnessed, one series taken from Princeton and one from Harvard, although last year Yale was generally conceded the intercollegiate championship. The track team has done somewhat better, winning twice from each of our rivals, and taking second place in the Intercollegiates in our Sophomore year. Crew has been most discouraging of all, and we have had the heartrending misfortune of seeing a Harvard crew lead Yale across the line at New London three [77] TWO LKADKRS ATHLETICS consecutive years, as well as the added humiliation of being defeated twice on Lake Carnegie by Princeton. In the minor sports Yale has done better. The wrestling team, although not entered in the Intercollegiates, has virtually won the inter- collegiate championship for three years, due largely to the remarkable and consistent work of Ben Avery, admittedly the best wrestler in the colleges. The golf team has shown its conservatism and conformity to an old tradition by winning the intercollegiate match all three years, and at the end of Junior year Nate Wheeler illustrated the truth of the fable of the "Lion and the Mouse" by capturing the individual title. The swimming team took premier honors two of the three seasons we have witnessed, the gymnasium team has had the same record, while the soccer team has won one intercollegiate championship during our college course. All in all, for a Uni- versity which can be satisfied with a position nowhere but at the top, surely not an enviable record ! For the unsatisfactory results no excuses can condone, nor can tears shed now avail. Did Omar know something of the relentless cruelty of the score board when he sang: "The Moving Finger Writes, and having writ Moves on; nor all your piety and wit Shall lure it back to cancel half a line; Nor all your tears wash out a Word of it"? But we cannot compare the results of athletics for the past three years with the record of former Yale teams without one question coming continually to the front "Why?" And the answer to that question contains abundant hope f0r a far brighter athletic future. For years Yale had a corner on athletic knowledge. It was the foremost laboratory for indi- vidual research and experimentation, and, as a graduate in close touch with affairs athletic recently remarked, "Yale was always two years ahead of the crowd." Then came a change. Other colleges woke up, improved their coaching systems in short, beat Yale at her own game. Perhaps Yale aided them by a sort of a blind confidence in the infallibility of "the [79] ATHLETICS system," perhaps by a slight hesitation in the pursuit of pro- gressive ideas. At any rate, the Class of 1914 entered just as the results of changed conditions were becoming manifest. The history of athletics during our course in college has been the history of attempts to readjust our sports to a new situation in which Yale must struggle for her supremacy in the field of athletic knowledge and science. Now, as we are about to leave, the signs indicate that the problems are at least on the way toward solution, and we have every right to look for results. We have seen the elimination of the old system of putting a graduate just out of college in charge of the football team, and next fall the Eleven will be in the hands of a mature, experienced instructor, a man who has made a study of the game, who does not bow down before the fetish of a "system," but who is on the alert for new ideas in keeping with the new game. The baseball team has been put in the hands of a Yale man who has already, in two years, more than demonstrated his superiority over any college coach in the country who has brought order out of chaos, and put the team on a settled working basis. Then the much-discussed "crew situation" ! Our Freshman year saw the complete collapse of the Kennedy stroke, and in Sophomore year an attempt was made to put things in the hands of the graduates, but the result was hardly more satisfactory. Next year affairs were in the hands of undergraduate coaches, and the English stroke was copied as closely as possible. But in spite of the most heroic efforts on the part of the coaches and the members of the crew, the result was disastrous. This year Captain Denegre seems to have evolved the sanest and most practical plan yet attempted. With Mr. Armstrong at the head, to represent the graduates, and with the active coaching in the hands of Mr. Giannini and Mr. Nichols, two men expe- rienced in coaching as well as in rowing, there is every indi- cation that things are on a sound footing, on a footing which will, eventually if not immediately, bring success. In track we have seen the acquisition of Mr. Queal to assist Johnnie [81] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN Mack in training the distance men. So, in three and a half years, we have seen a change in the policy of every sport. The Class of 1914 may find some comfort in the fact that, if not successful in winning games, it has at least seen the ath- letic problems bequeathed by former generations faced, and, we hope, solved. The athletic situation has changed in one other respect far A SCENE AT THE FIELD 1913 BASEBALL SEASON more important than the question of coaching the enormous increase in athletic facilities, actual and planned. Enough work has been done already on the Bowl so that it is at least a semi-reality rather than a Utopian vision. Plans are in the hands of graduates (so energetic and so enthusiastic that thnv is every assurance that the plans will pass from the realm of thought into the realm of matter at the earliest possible mo- ment) which provide for a new baseball field with steel covered [82] ATHLETICS stands so large that the returning graduate will no longer get cramps in his arm from holding a parasol over his wife in left field, for a track with stands large enough to enable Yale to hold the Intercollegiates on her own ground, for a clubhouse equipped with dressing rooms, squash courts, etc., for enough baseball fields and tennis courts to enable everyone to play in fact, for an athletic Elysium in which every want is satisfied ! HILLHOUSE COURTS IN ACTION The baseball cage has been erected, providing an opportunity for the team to get actual practice as long before the Southern trip as is desired, and providing a suitable winter practicing ground for the football, track and soccer teams. The Adee boathouse has been completed, making it possible for a much larger number of men to row than formerly. A few new tennis courts have been added to the equipment on the Hillhouse prop- erty. The old Yale Golf Club, with its unique course, has been [83] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN discontinued, and undergraduates have been permitted to join the new Racebrook Country Club, where there are opportuni- ties to play the game more nearly as it is generally played. One of the most important additions to the athletic equipment is the erection of the artificial ice rink by the Centerfreeze Ice Company, which, while not belonging to the University, assures the hockey team ice for practice throughout the winter, without making them dependent upon the favors of the New England climate, which, as Mark Twain said, "comes only in samples." All these additions have taken place while the Class of 1914 has been in College. Surely they presage a day when Yale teams, with the aid of proper facilities, will again attain their position of unchallenged supremacy, and, better yet, when athletics will no longer be confined to those who need them l)t*<**f7^LS&.

His permanent address is 2 East Biddle Street, Baltimore, Md. OBITUARY FREDERICK LORING GROSS OBITUARY P REDERICK LORING GROSS, "Fred," was born at Brockton, Mass., on April 1, 1892. He was the son of Frederick Johnson Gross, and May Glendon Gross, who died March 14, 1902. Mr. Gross was born at Keyport, N. J., on January 17, 1867, and has spent most of his life in Brock- ton, Mass., and Auburn, Maine. He is engaged in shoe manufac- turing, and is at present Treas- urer of Field Brothers & Gross Company. There are two other children, both daughters. Fred prepared for College at Quincy High School and Exeter Academy. In his short career at College, he had already taken a promi- nent part in the activities of the Class; he heeled the News in the first competition and, failing in that, he started out in the second. He was unable to continue, however, owing to illness, and eventually had to retire from College on this account. He was taken to his home in Auburn, Maine, where he died on May 3, 1911. In a career cut off so early, Fred had already given much promise of a splendid future and it was one of the greatest misfortunes the Class has encountered to have lost him. Quiet, good-natured, lovable, he will always be remem- bered with the deepest affection by his many friends. F. G. B. JOHN LEWIS HOFFMAN was born in Philadelphia, Pa., February 27, 1891. Prior to entering Yale he went to the Blight School and afterwards to the Haverford School, Haver- ford, Pa. He entered College with the Class of 1914, and roomed in Freshman year with Allen Evans, Jr., at 242 York 391 HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN JOHN LEWIS HOFFMAN Street. He was one of the first men of the Class to win his numerals, getting them in the Fall Track Meet. In Sopho- more year he roomed with Allen Evans, Jr., and Wm. Jay Schieffelin, Jr., in Durfee. He became a member of the Alpha Delta Phi Fraternity. On April 8, 1912, during the Easter vacation, he was killed in an automobile accident, to- gether with his friend and class- mate, Arthur Larned Ryerson. One cannot but feel that his life was cut short in the full promise and strength of his youth. Those who best knew him and the sorrow of w r hich he had had more than his share in so few years, could not but admire his fortitude under it. It was due to this that Lewis was, perhaps, more reserved and harder to know than the average boy who comes to College. He did not let this interfere with his life, however, and soon had around him a circle of the warmest friends. His friends felt the strength of his character and the growing powers of his life. His usual good spirits and undauntedness, with an under- Current of seriousness, endeared him to us all, while his inher- ited gentlemanliness and breeding won the respect and admira- tion of his classmates. His death came to us, his classmates, as an overwhelming shock. His life, as we knew it, has left an impression of pure manliness and courage on our lives which we can never forget. A. E., JR.

WILLIAM SIGMUND KEMPNER ARTHUR LARNED RYER- SON was born on Novem- ber 19, 1893. Before coming to Yale he went for two years to school at Farnborough, England, then to St. Paul's School, Concord, N. H., and later to Lake Placid School, in Florida and the Adirondacks. He entered Col- lege with the Class of 1914, and lived during his Freshman year at 238 York Street. On April 8, 1912, during the Easter va- cation of his Sophomore year, he was killed in an automobile acci- dent, together with his class- mate, John Lewis Hoffman. ARTHUR LARNED RYERSON [393] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN Owing to the shortness of his College career, those who knew him best feel that Arthur did not have time to develop fully. Occasionally men come to College whose characters do not expand so rapidly as the average, and who, for this reason, fail of universal appreciation by their classmates until their third or fourth years. To this type Arthur belonged, but nevertheless he had gathered about himself an ever-increasing circle of friends. We who knew him thus intimately will always remember his light-hearted buoyancy of spirit, his innate gentlemanliness, his originality and freedom of thought, and his generosity of feeling and consideration for others. His attitude of kindliness towards his fellows was perhaps his most endearing quality, and it was this which, during the few moments of consciousness after the accident which -resulted in his death, prompted him, although suffering intensely, to urge those with him "to go to Hoffman, as he was the most hurt." To us, his classmates, his death was a cause of deep sorrow, and sincere regret that a life so promising and full of hope should come to so untimely an end. J. H. McH. MISCELLANY THE OLD AND THE NEW MORY'S Hallowed in the memories and affections of many genera- tions of Yale men, Mory's stands today as one of the few institutions of College life in New Haven which, within the past six decades, has not been completely metamorphosed. Despite three changes in location, from Wooster Street to Court, to Temple, and finally to York Street, the same atmosphere per- vades the identical surroundings which have caused it to be for over half a century the favorite Yale gathering place. The original Mory's was discovered quite by accident. Frank Moriarity and his wife kept an ale house in a dingy little place on Wooster Street, the resort of the young mechan- ics of the neighborhood, who appreciated the dignified hospi- tality of "Frank," a happy contrast to the various saloon- keepers of the district. Through Wooster Street many of the students had passed on their way to the old boathouse of the time, but none had ever happened to stop at this unpretentious and not particularly inviting house. At last, upon the after- noon of a regatta in the harbor, a group of students, mem- bers of the Class of 1863, desiring stimulant to restore their depleted energies, visited the modest tap room. This was the discovery of Mory's. Cheered by the hospitality of the bluff and hearty Frank, these students repeated their visits, and gradually the place came to be used, at first, it is true, chiefly by crew men, but soon by the whole student body. Encouraged by this quickly acquired popularity with the students, Frank moved to a place on Court Street, near the Green, which soon gained the name of "The Quiet House." Here students gathered nightly "to mingle their voices in rollicking song, or to indulge in those characteristic engage- ments in which the repartee was always clean, if not witty." Upon the death of Frank, in the late seventies, Mrs. Moriarity, [397] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN or "the Widow," as she soon came to be called, transferred her good will and her business to a white frame building on the corner of Temple and Center Streets, where she installed her- self as the Mistress of "Temple Bar" in which building Mory's remained until the summer of 1912. "The Quiet House" is probably best described in the words of Col. Norris G. Osborn, '80 : "What a revelation was 'The Quiet House' to the student world ! Appropriately named and appropriately located, set back the conventional fifty feet from the pavements, the swing- ing doors of brown leather, uniformly darkened with the stains and dirt of years, its inner door of imitation English oak how pleasant the atmosphere of sombre color, the characteristic old prints, the odor of real English ale, and the very breath and breathings of good fellowship that greeted one upon one's ONE OF THE TABLES [398] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN entrance ! There were none of the sad trappings of the saloon. There were the conventional quiet and order and decency of the English grill room. About the rough-hewn old tables were grouped young and handsome boys, some in earnest, some in flippant conversation, with here one pouring patiently over the latest copy of Punch, there one, evidently a Sophomore, making his first visit and wonderingly turning the pages of an obsolete London directory. Occasionally a peal of rippling laughter would ring through the room and startle the quieter visitors, to die away later in the evening in the semi-martial melody of Delta Beta Xi a signal to all that conversation must give away to the government of song." Upon the death of Mrs. Moriarity, Temple Bar was rented by "Eddie" Oakley, who for a number of years had acted as Mrs. Moriarity's manager. Eddie, however, proved unequal to the traditions of the place in certain ways, and Mory's was forced to put up the shutters through lack of business. But in 1898 began the reign of Louis Linder, soon to become one of the most famous of Yale characters. Born in Oehringen, Germany, he had, at the age of fourteen, run away to America, sailing as a cabin boy, and for several years worked in the hotels of New York. There he attracted the attention of one of the Heubleins, who brought him to New Haven when the place at the corner of Church and Court streets was opened, some twenty-two years ago. When Mory's had stood idle for about a year, Mr. Linder decided to reopen it. He put all his savings into the venture. For the first year or so he had a hard struggle; but soon undergraduates realized that here was a place which was conducted on straight principles, and where they could meet by themselves amidst truly homelike and wholesome surroundings. Soon it won among undergraduates a great popularity which it has never since lost. This popu- larity was well shown when three years ago there was some falling off in the interest and attendance and Mr. Linder decided to close the place up. Objections came from gradu- ates all over the world by letter, telegram, cable and newspaper [400] MORY'S MORY'S TRANSPLANTED TO A NEW YORK MOVING PICTURE STUDIO articles. Committees got to work, and as a result Mory's was saved and arrangements made for its perpetuation as a Yale institution. In the summer of 1912, Mory's was forced to move from its old location, at the corner of Temple and Center, as the orig- inal building had been torn down to make room for the new Journal-Courier building. The Linder Realty Company, of which Mr. Linder was president and C. G. Spalding secretary, purchased a new establishment at 306 York Street. At the same time there was formed the Mory's Association Incorpor- ated, the officers being James O. Rodgers, '98, president; George Goss, 1903, vice president; Franklin Farrell, 1903, treasurer; and Carroll C. Hincks, 1911, secretary, which under- took the formal management of Mory's as a club, with Mr. Linder as its steward. Both this Association and the Linder Realty Company were formed at the express wish of Mr. Linder to provide a sure way for the continuance of Mory's in case [401] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN of his death, and that it should fall into no other than Yale hands. The interior of the new establishment was appointed so as to correspond as nearly as possible to the old house. All the old fittings and furnishings were retained by the owners of the new club and have been placed in positions corresponding as nearly as possible to those occupied at the old place. The little old lady and gentleman still lean forth from their windows BILL KRUEGER over the doorways, in the center of the front room is the round table carved with the initials of the members of the Senior Class, and along the sides of the room are the same oblong tables with the same chairs Not only are the tables and chairs the same, but also the furnishings, the clocks, mantels, windows and window frames, pictures, trophies, tobies and tankards. That the removal to the new place would be marked by so few changes was remarked with wonder. On Sunday morning, October 19, 1913, Louis Linder died, after a faithful service of fifteen consecutive years as proprie- [402] MORY'S tor and later steward of Mory's. During this time he had become known to Yale men all over the world as a man unique for rugged honesty and grave kindness. Because of his continued ill health and his frequent and extended absence from New Haven during the past three years, it was not the privilege of many members of 1914 to know Louis very intimately. But to those of us who did know him, the memories of his friendship will long be cherished. Upon the death of Mr. Linder, the Board of Governors appointed William T. Krueger, familiarly known as "Bill," to succeed as steward, after many years' service in the capacity of Mr. Linder's able lieutenant, where he had won the affection of graduate and undergraduate alike. To "Bill," renowned for his courteous hospitality and good nature, the good friend of 1914 since the first of Sophomore year, the Class wishes a long life and continued success in his management of Mory's. [403] FENCE ORATIONS Acceptance of the Fence, in behalf of the Freshman Class, by Almet Jenks, in reply to F. V. Blood, 1913. Delivered on the Campus, Monday, June 12, 1911. ORATION OF A. F. JENKS, JR. Young Gentlemen of the Sophomore Class: It is my pleasure to thank you collectively for this gift and my sorrow to vituperate you individually for a donation so soon to become the "seats of the mighty." I understand it has been hard for you to yield it, not wholly because of the difficulty of the Sophomore exams, a matter beyond your control, but partly for the sentiment, that does you credit. Of ourselves I have little to say ; "on their own merits modest men are dumb." Our gratefulness is not easy to express. It is illustrated by a story of the New Haven Fire Department. One of its firemen, Jackson, had done a brave deed climbed five stories through red flames and aching smoke, rescued a baby and thrown it out of a window into a life-net ; incidentally Jackson came down by the passenger elevator. His comrades, wishing to express their admiration, subscribed to give him a magnificent silver trumpet. The chief arose to present it: "Mr. Jackson," he said, "we that is, the boys and me, here, can neve r-er- fully express er can never fully express- er Oh, here! Take the damn trumpet!" Jackson arose to receive the gift. "Gentlemen," he said, "er-and fellow firemen," the tears were rolling down his fire- cracked cheeks, "such-er-brotherly love touches me-er-to the quick er-I for my part-er-I Oh, hell, give me the trum- pet !" Before my slander sortie let me say that we shall take this Fence as a tradition, not as a trophy. It has left its mark [4041 HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN upon all Yale men and not one of them was so callous as not to receive and retain its impression. This is a kindergarten example of the application of the logical principle of "a posteriori." And it is a living institution, not a back number, though a back number. And yet I believe every Yale man is glad that he was not a cherub and therefore incapable of feeling its influence upon his physical, if not his intellectual life. Time was when the Fence was the boundary that sepa- rated the classic confines of the Campus from the turmoil of the town and when Yale men manned the rails as a living buttress against what one sweet girl graduate once termed the "oi populi." Later, it became a priceless relic within our walls, but none the less, it has remained unchanged as the survival of the simplicity of the antique, as the counter-irritant to cozy corners and air cushions, as the Spartan seat of Yale democ- racy. It is, then, a station, a status, a symbol and a shrine, and, I am told, that as the Moslem kneels in prayer at the sight of Mecca, the oldest living graduate always, at the sight of it, breaks into a rheumatic run to balance himself once again upon its topmost rail as if he had found the fountain of perpetual youth. But I am told that I must be personal, that a Fence Oration is an expurgated edition of "Who's Who in America," or rather, Who's Who in the Sophomore Class, which, however, is practically the same thing, at least, in their own eyes. I must speak to you as you are, nothing extenuate, nor set down aught in malice except that on such and such an occasion the purist in the Sophomore Class must be described as a ruffian of the deepest dye. And although I speak of you, it cannot be said of me, in the words of the poet : "Everyone knows that a man represents Not the fellers that sent him, but them on the fence." Well, then, in the first place, they tell me you are giving away this here Fence because you have never been able to use [405] VOL. XXXVI, No. 100.

If you will examine the moving pictures of the worthies squatting toad-like upon this historic bit of furniture, you will realize that to poise gracefully on the top rail and hook one's foot delicately around the bottom has demanded a vast amount of sobriety. Although I dislike to so much as touch upon the subject of Bacchanalian orgies and the like, this is, nevertheless, only too true. Why, the preceding speaker himself told me that when the time came for presenta- tion "he guessed he'd have to rely on old King Alcohol." Merely out of justice, however, after listening to his clear, untainted speech rising on the Spring-like air like a benediction, we realize that, on the contrary, he must have relied on the ancient precept, "Put not your trust in princes." Although we have not had the pleasure of knowing you "en masse, 9 ' so to speak, a few of your members have become known to us through their kindly solicitude. Two friends there are, "sturdy and staunch they stand": Academic Kliger- man and Charlie B., "the Freshman's friend" always on York Street. Charlie cannot tear himself away from old surround- ings any day you can see him struggling with Harty's eggs, his Italian countenance and immaculate dress shedding an awe- inspiring glamour about the small restaurant. He is a true gentleman of the old school strong in his convictions for I noticed that his final oration in Prep, school was on the subject of "Prohibition." .... But Obscurity has taken flight. Fame is now knocking at his door and they tell me a bronze plate, similar to Nathan Hale's, only larger, is to be fastened on Welch with the legend : "Holladay P. roomed here, Sophomore year, 1913." But even this is not up to Walter C.'s famous remark. At one of the few social events that Walter is seen at, some one introduced him to a young lady. "I am very pleased to meet you," she murmured. "Oh, are you any relative to Walter Camp, the great football" "Any relative !" laughed Walter, easily ; "why, my dear girl, I am the great Walter Camp!" [407] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN Jack A., they tell me, is noted for a certain near-vacancy of genius in the classroom. For instance, he was once required to write upon the subject, "Rape of the Sabines," and, in effect, this was his answer: "Rape was queen of the Sabines. She made war upon Tarantula but later married him." .... Among the few things that have been given us this year I might say the only things besides the Fence, was a member- ship in the Corinthian Yacht Club and even that, if I remem- ber correctly, demanded some return. Who can forget the thrill of pride that permeated his being when he learned that his name had been "proposed for membership"? Some of us were rather disappointed in the club. We discovered that it was more "booze" than "cruise." An amusing anecdote is related of Albert K. and his first yacht. It was the beginning of his nautical career and the wind had lashed the sea into a seething mass. The "crew" in the cabin were telling him horrible tales of shipwreck and hurricane. Suddenly a sailor outside dropped a heavy block upon the deck. "What was that?" he cried, white to the lips. "The barometer falling," whispered someone. "God help us !" he moaned, and staggered to his bunk In the transition from Prep, school to college many marvel- ous changes come, but none so great as that in the character of Eliot C. T., sometime known as Zip. . . . . I believe he was once seen at a ball dressed as a Columbine. In his hurry to get to the dance, he had forgotten to wear gloves. In the course of the evening, when dancing with a dainty Pierouette in white satin, who, being of a practical turn of mind, and by no means content to forget earth and all its sorrows to the intricate steps of Zip's "Boston," the only living rival of jiu-jitsu, had visions of the immense imprint of Zip's hand upon the middle of her back. So she stopped the dance and said in her most dulcet tones : "Mr. Thompson, would-er-you mind using your handker- chief?" "Why, c-certainly n-not," says Zip, who draws out his [408] FENCE ORATIONS handkerchief and blows his nose with a blast that drowns the orchestra, including the trombone soloist. Another famous entertainer is Cole P. He has taken the college world and several large western towns by storm with his clever songs, rare old wines and peculiar salads. We all feared for him once when, due to Beebian efforts to sing "Per- fectly Terribly" to some admiring damsel, he strained a tendon and got appendicitis. But he was well cared for ; could any harm come to the "1911 Class Baby"? .... We come now to a lamentable status, to a few who are revelling in their second childhood, the 1913 kindergarten: Billy Wolv W. "Squab" R. and "Benny" B. The latter youth was found one Sunday afternoon with a small rubber ball and elastic which he had attached to the corner of Connec- ticut Hall. He was having a wonderful time walking to Welch, letting go the ball and watching it bounce. Quite a crowd of children collected and Benny amused the little ones all afternoon. To the pure, all things are puerile. But this is no worse than Ambrose C. notice the transition who has invested in a canary bird, a bass-drum, an accordion and a laundry ringer. Together with Johnfritz's kitten they have a fairly decent nursery I feel, at this point, something like the little girl at the party. You perhaps remember the story. At a large party of very little girls and boys a kindly, benevolent old lady found one child seated against the wall, her youthful brow creased in a terrible frown. "Why, why what's the matter, little girl, don't you like our party?" "Huh!" answered the sweet little thing, "I wish I wuz to home and the party wuz to hell !" I am at a loss to know whether I have deeply injured some worthy gentlemen by vile calumnies or have failed to retaliate for the insults we have received, torn, as it were, between a spirit of regret and patriotism perhaps a wrong patriotism, but nevertheless a certain sort of love that seeks to defend by [409] FENCE ORATIONS returning insult for injury. Patriotism has been often mis- interpreted. But I imagine that some of our youthful follies could not have remained long concealed. After all "Blood will tell." And if we have been too violent, we may adopt a more harmless strain and remind you that in very truth the Fence is a great deal like the Freshman, it exists only to be sat on. So finally, gentlemen, to drop into a bit of verse: Here have our fathers often sat before us And sang their songs unto the fickle moon, All joining in the lilt of flowing chorus. While twisted in the shape of Laocoon. Here have they fought again these fields of glory, Where Yale aloft the palm of vict'ry bore, Or told once more, the time-worn college story, And mused upon the spirits gone before. And shall we not then find an inspiration, When we shall gather on the battered rail, And feel the spirit of an aspiration When we, no longer, are "without the pale." In behalf of the Class of 1914, for this Fence, I thank you, gentlemen. Presentation of the Fence in Sophomore year, Stoddard King representing 1914. Accepted by John S. Reilly of the Freshman Class. June 6, 1912. ORATION OF S. KING. My Dear Young Friends of the Freshman Class: I asked you to come here this afternoon to make you a present of a weather-beaten but useful piece of Campus furni- ture. Of course, as a matter of fact, this piece of furniture is in the same class with the little mucker's black eye nobody gave it to you; you had to fight for it. But fighting, as we all know, is rude and coarse, and it looks much nicer to have [411] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN a presentation than to degrade this noble ceremony into a mere case of disorderly conduct. The Sophomore Class is very glad to turn this bit of wood- work over to you because we have no further use for it our- selves. This is called magnanimity. Henceforth you are to be at liberty to twine yourselves sinuously about the upper and lower rails, and to carve your initials upon these bars rather than on other bars, not so dry, which I am told exist along portions of New Haven's Great Night Way. I may call this the awakening of the child to manhood, or the burst- ing of the beautiful butterfly from the crude chrysalis. I think it is a lovely idea. Little child sturdy man. Dirty gray cocoon pretty pink butterfly. Beautiful. Of course, there are always two sides to an affair like this a cheerful side and a sad side. The cheerful feature lies in the fact that you are getting something for nothing another Yale tradition shattered. The element of sadness creeps into the occasion only when it is recalled that after listening to a scholarly and scintillating presentation speech you are forced to sit through a tedious acceptance by a member of your own Class, who slanders us in return for our generosity, and whose bump of reverence is smaller than the cherry in his favorite beverage. When I am through with this small sermon I can give you my blessing and depart. You have to stay. I sympathize with you. How do I know the acceptance will be tedious? Because it is a tendency of your class to take as much time as possible to complete even a comparatively simple task. Let me illus- trate. On the occasion of the President's tea, two of your members reached the executive residence frightfully early. There wasn't another soul there. These two Freshmen were greeted by their host with a touch of surprise. "Very glad to see you, I'm sure," said the President. "But why, may I ask, did you come so early?" "Well, you see," said one nonchalantly, to show his perfect familiarity with social usages, "it said on the invitations : 'From [412] FENCE ORATIONS four to six.' Now, we've got to leave at a quarter to six, so we came at a quarter to four." Just as I started to mount this rostrum I heard the clapping of hands and was much gratified. "Why," I said to my col- league, "I seem to be getting quite a reception. They're applauding me already." "Aw, shucks," said he with very evident jealousy, "they ain't applauding, they're slapping mosquitoes." So with the mosquitoes in mind, I shall not keep you long. Just long enough to touch up a few of the highlights of your Class. And there aren't very many of those, either. Your Class has as few highlights as it has highbrows. I can't put it any stronger. When I started to look for interesting personalities I ran up against a dull gray level of mediocrity that gave me pause. And then, to make matters worse, I was waited on by a tearful deputation which besought me for the sake of the dear ones at home not to say anything about any little irrigation projects they may have taken part in. And I had a perfectly lovely story, too, about the 1915 man who invented the Mary Garden cocktail, which the Class took to like the Garland babies to a dog biscuit. But I have the dope, nevertheless, and will send it unexpurgated to anyone who will forward the cost of postage and packing. I think that's fair enough. If I had a subject, I think it would be "The Decline and Fall of the Class of 1915." But understand, please, that I do not speak in a spirit of carping criticism. I am presenting a fence, but it is not my post to rail at anyone. (I wanted to work in a joke here about a fence presentation being a bar tender, but I don't see how I am going to.) I have also in mind the precept, de mortuis nil nisi bonum," which being interpreted means : "They're a lot of dead ones don't roast them." So my tone throughout is to be apologetic rather than aggressive. ., Gentlemen of 1915, you have had glorious opportunities. Yours has been the last Class to enjoy the priceless privilege of the sage counsel of the head of the house of Garland [413] TWO SCKKEH FROM THK DRAMAT. MoVIKS TAKKN AM) St'l'I'RESSKI) OI'R JlNIOR YlAll FENCE ORATIONS perhaps I might have chosen a better word than "priceless." You have had, most of you, a Harty diet advertising rates to other restaurants on application together with the inspira- tion afforded by the fair young or rather fairly young- handmaids of der alte Eli. You have had more News editorials slung at you than any other Freshman Class in the history of the College. And, last and best, you have had Stover for a model. And what have you done with these opportunities? Oppor- tunity, we are told, knocks only once at a man's door, thereby differing from the average bill collector. You have had opportunities, what have you done with them? Ah, that it has been my business to find out. And did I do it? To quote some of the most noble words of Aristotle, I done it. I am by tem- perament and profession a muckraker, not an orator, and I sound the depths of society with as much embonpoint I mean nonchalance I never get the right English on those French phrases with as much nonchalance as I now sound the dirge of a once promising Class. Only one thing did I find to your advantage. You really have made an effort to imitate certain episodes of the great Stover's career. The results of this effort have been renewed popularity of buggy riding, three in a seat, and greatly increased attendance at Hughey's. When I started to investigate your career, my modus operandi, to lapse into the vulgar idioms of the Roman race track, was this : I went slumming. Slumming on York Street. Does not the idea evoke a sympathetic shudder? When Virgil returned to the Elysian fields after a lengthy absence, his celestial roommate, noting a faint odor of brim- stone, asked where he had been, and the poet replied in a neat hexameter : "To Hell with Dante," thereby originating a senti- ment you will find written in nine out of ten copies of "Heroes and Hero- Worship." But when I plunged into the shades of York Street, beneath the frowning Garland portal with the inscription: "All dope abandon, ye who enter here," I had no Latin poet for a guide. A Latin poet would have been of no [415] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN use ait all to me, having not even a speaking acquaintance in the whole Freshman Glass. It would have, been like taking a Gil- lette to a colored picnic. I had with me, however, a man who knew the slums, who had seen the seamy side of life one of the famous white hopes of Yale Hope. These men, be it said in parentheses, are noted for their powers of conversion, particularly the conversion of conversation into cash. I had this man with me, then. It was, as you may have guessed, our old friend Bud Wiser pure malt and real Bohemian hops. Bud wore false whiskers so as not to be recognized by any of his needy but seedy proteges We heard low, musical murmurings oozing out through the keyhole of a dimly lighted room. We entered and saw Archie MacLeish, the only line-bucking poet known to science, in the act of dashing off a few sentiments for the advertising pages of the Record. He was surrounded by a bust of Ella Wheeler Wilcox and his breath smelled of lavender lozenges. Here let me tell you the only true story of this delightful young man's first plunge into the fountain of the Muses. He went to the Lit. office one day and entered modestly with a manuscript under his arm. "I have a little madrigal here," he chirped prettily. "Got you," gurgled the low-browed, illiterate person who was running the office at the time. "It is about moon mist and the soul of the rose and all that sort of thing," Archie volunteered. "Is that all you got?" said the brute in charge. "We ain't running much moon mist stuff this year. Drinking songs is what we want. There was a lot of champagne ads. turned in last comp. and we have to please our advertisers." "Why, yes," said Archie. "I have a little thing on the Higher Pantheism. It goes like this" and he read: "Out of the cosmos of eternity \ t.injrlrd snmrthiiig cornes to plague my soul, The nights an- mid I know not what they be And litV is Imt six-sevenths of the whole." I 1 FENCE ORATIONS By this time the Lit . person was able to gasp : "In the name of Owen Johnson, give us the moon mist." So Archie has been writing moon mist ever since. Off in one corner of the room was a cheerful, chubby little man reading a time table. It took but one glance to assure me that it was Ran Macdonald, the only man who has been able to heel the News without ever actually being in New Haven. Mac spent one or two nights here while the fall com- petition was at its height, but he has never ceased to regard that as wasted time. He used to bribe the other heelers with marbles and bits of colored glass to cover his assignments for him, and spent the fall and winter traveling. On one of those rare occasions when his face was seen in the News office one of the tyrants in charge suggested that it might be a good thing if Mac would hand in a few logs. A log, be it known, is anything too weak to support a headline. So Mac took the New York papers and borrowed a fountain pen and asked someone where the heelers' room was. After an hour and a half of mental concentration he emerged with a slip of paper on which was neatly written the following scoop of scoops : "The oldest living Princeton graduate is dead." .... The guide of our slumming expedition then asked us if we would like to see a real gambling den. We said yes, after carefully tucking our watches and other valuables into our shoes. So he led us mysteriously to a door from behind which we could hear the click of poker chips and a low undertone of quiet, gentlemanly curse words. The intrepid guide whistled a few bars of "Auction bridge is falling down," and we were ushered into as select a company of casino sharks as ever disgraced a college curriculum. Marshmallow cans and ginger-beer bottles gave the room an appearance of unspeak- able rakishness. Before we left they told us a story about Win Brooks, to show how completely he is absorbed by his ruling passion for the devil's picture cards. One night Win went to pay a party call. He was a bit sleepy, as the night before he had sat up rather late to call on a couple of queens. (He lost, [417] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN by the way, for the other man had three kings.) At any rate, Win dozed off while the young lady was strumming on the piano. Presently she turned and said, "What shall I play now?" And Win replied drowsily, "I don't know. Let's see your hand." It is pleasing to contrast the rude disorderliness of some of your more prominent classmates with the polished social graces of such men as Gardie Osborn When he was in Boston with the Freshman Glee Club he had a dance with a buxom Boston belle, beautiful, blonde and bashful. Gardie bostoned with her in his usual boisterous manner, and asked for another dance. "Oh, I couldn't dahnce another," she said. "I'm dahnced out." "Oh, no," said Gardie, hastily, "not darned stout only nice and plump." As a specimen of the degree of culture that exists in your Class, I need only mention that when I asked a very intelligent- looking youngster if there were any dilettantes in 1915, he answered naively: "No, but there's a lot of pretty pronounced blondes." Imagine ! I explained that a dilettante was one who trifled with things literary and aesthetic, sort of dabbled his toes in the Pierian spring, as it were, and he told me about Bobby Gamble. Bobbie, it seems, was the original hero of the story about the man who read Scott's Emulsion, and liked it. His neatest base hit in the dilettante line was scored at a very lofty-browed afternoon affair, where conversational gems were washed down with tea. Bobby and a highly literary young lady who wore bifocal eyeglasses were swapping expressions of ecstasy over literary lights of the past and present. "And Carlyle," murmured the fair one. "Ah, Carlyle !" Bobby set down his teacup, after extracting the cherry with dexterous thumb and forefinger, and took on a far-away look. "Carlyle," he enunciated ponderously, "Carlyle was a poet." After that Bobby gave up the dilettante business and concen- [418] FENCE ORATIONS trated on soccer, which is football with a good deal of English on it Now there are, as you must know, as many traditions clus- tering about a fence presentation as there are about the dirt of Durfee and the fast life of the Divinity School. One of these is that a Sophomore oration must conclude with a quinine capsule of good advice to send you back to your rooms in quiet, thoughtful groups. But I shall not presume to force down your throats the bitter pap of patronizing superiority. You have developed the true Sophomore swagger that we hear so much about, and I with my own eyes have seen at least a dozen of you furtively prowling abroad at night with grim black pipes ornamenting your fair young faces. You have learned to appreciate, for instance, an intellectual treat, or you wouldn't be here this evening. But you ought to appreciate most of all the Fence. You will never find a Fence anywhere else, for it is an institution that can exist only at Yale. People may talk as much as they like, and write as many letters to the Alumni Weekly as they like, about the dying out of the old Yale spirit, but the old Yale spirit cannot possibly die out as long as the Fence stays. And I know that during the past year, at least, the Fence has been just what it was meant to be a class meeting place. As long as you continue to make it a meeting place, provided you meet often enough, you won't need any reforming, social or otherwise. So here, then, is my peroration: The Fence we give you keep it while you may Joy cannot droop or loyal spirit fail, While 'round its battered bars at close of day Gather the sturdy sons of Mother Yale: Through the apprenticeship of Freshman year You have worked hard, but there's a recompense Take our best wishes with it now and here Let me present you Gentlemen, the Fence ! [419] A FEW OF THE EDITORIALS OF RICHARD ALEXANDER DOUGLAS, CHAIRMAN OF THE 1914 NEWS BOARD THE TATTERED ARISTOCRACY The type of decadent gentleman who rides under a Pullman is quite bewitching. His carefree air, his patches and his nonchalance, have often magnetized the pockets of even the shrewdest undergraduate. He never seems to beg, but rather to grant a favor in condescending to receive a gift. Far above the common drudge, he is, indeed, the complete aristocrat, who roams the country, seeking crusty pleasure anywhere. The undergraduate, unused to "quality," is greatly at a disadvantage in dealing with such personages. They always accept his boons; but instead of appeasing hunger with them, these fallen aristocrats quench their thirst! Of this neither the Yale Hope Mission nor society at large can approve. If the undergraduate must bow before these frayed barons, he can either give them tickets for profitable entertainment at the Mission, or he can buy them a harmless dinner at a lunch counter. THE ANATOMY OF MELANCHOLY Wherever two or three moderns are gathered together, there is usually enough depression to satisfy Tragedy itself. Dismal wails and moans reverberate through Yale's entries so fre- quently that a stranger might think Byron or the Great Pessimist reincarnated. If undergraduates were not really quite young and callow as Kotzebue, the tense despair, the theatrical despondency, the heroic solemnity with which some of them regard Yale, might lead them to be mistaken for shattered old men. But perhaps the solemn undergraduate is merely luxuriating in an ecstasy of woe. [421] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN If he is not entirely pleased with Melancholy, this youthful disciple of frowns may have merely turned professional Yale critic. There are so many such critics that one wonders how the University, or the College, can survive another hour ! What heroism it is for them to brave the dangers of becoming cynics! There really is this danger. They must feel the tremendous thrills of the martyr: they are martyrs in sacri- ficing the happiness of their youth. But of course there must be martyrs. Of course, some obstreperous children must be romantically despondent. And nearly everybody must despair of Yale (which has been running so infernally, so miserably these last two hundred and twelve years), and stop being cheerful. They had better be merry, for Yale is not going directly to Patagonia; and undergraduates are not grizzled ancients. If they would stop gnawing their finger-nails over its faults eternal worrying cannot make Yale perfect and grasp its joys and precious bait, the Byronic gloom would vanish. ON APPEARANCE We wonder how many of our gentle readers have ever noticed the untidy appearance of the soft shirt. The garment is becoming alarmingly popular: even Faculty members are beginning to wallow in its swinish ease. The soft shirt is pardonable only when it is accompanied by the wildness of genius, by wild locks, and glittering eyes. With these even a bandanna would be more appropriate. But on one of us not blessed with the divine spark of inspiration or burned with it the soft shirt is not always becoming. How unhappy Jim Donnelly would look in one! And when the garment is super- imposed by woolly fringe two and a half days old, the appear- ance of the soft shirt devotee is not beautified. But we would ease our prattle if our friends would cease wearing soft shirts with bonnets, tall and green. At that witching hour when the printer's devils were begin- [422] A FEW EDITORIALS ning to flit through the inky gloom, and lambent flames began to play about the pallid brow of the feverish night man, we received editorially a blow. A document which we had prepared for this morning was, and had to be, so inflamma- tory that we decided to defer its publication until tomorrow. The substitute was impromptu. THE DREGS In the treatment of the Deficient, Yale College shows too much mercy. The passing mark is within the reach of every- body not publicly confined. It is ridiculously low. Yet for not achieving it, either through indifference or superhuman dullness, almost nobody is ever expelled. The dregs merely gravitate. Now any man unable or unwilling to meet the requirements for staying in his own class, is unworthy of membership not only in it, but also in the College. It is merely an imposition upon the men in the class below to retard their progress by this worthless material. Ill health is the one plausible excuse for admission to a lower class. It is only fair, too, to the laggard, voluntary or not, to put him out of his intellectual misery, and cast him into the world of office floors and errand boys. The expulsion of the dregs might have a beneficent effect upon those nearing that level. A SHADOW OF ST-V-R The typical "college hero," once a vapid athletic wax model, skilled in the use of slang and brawn, has, as we know, within the last four years developed symptoms of morbidity. His mind, like his body at sound of an alarm clock, has gone through the first agony of awakening, to be at once grasped and tormented by a passion for reforming. The awakening, to be sure, gives a faint ray of hope, like a child's first teeth, in promising something better after this stormy passion has passed. Our own great Dink, surely graduated from New Haven by this time, we like to think, has either achieved dis- [423] A MORNING VISTA IN THE SPRING VANDKRHII.T AT Irs BK.ST A FEW EDITORIALS cretion, or death. But though the founder of the race has departed, the genus Dink has not become extinct : the descend- ants of our hero promise to be as numerous as those of ^Eneas. The honor of harboring the latest falls to Princeton, where Deering, formerly of Deal, N. J., is holding forth in decorated cloth for a dollar-twenty-five net. This young gentleman has every trait that would rejoice his New Haven ancestor. He can move a book advertiser to an artificial ecstasy. He can move Princeton. Of course, he rushes directly from the frontispiece into a hazing match, "of far-reaching importance," and then into a few football games. He stands aside for a moment, with the deferential air of a true hero, while his roommate wins "a pretty girl, around whom," according to the advertiser, "there centers a touch of sentiment." But he does not achieve the glory characteristic of his race, until "at the sacrifice of much that he values," he has reformed the eating club system, "the fraternity regime of Princeton." With this dashing fellow whispering in every Freshman's ear, Princeton at once becomes perilously infested. The true and delightful humor of a second Stover snooping around strange places can be appreciated in its completeness only by people living in New Haven whence the dejected Dink departed late last spring. Now it is Princeton's turn. It will be amusing to see how many different kinds of reforms can be instituted there by troubled undergraduates. And it will also be inter- esting to see how soon the descendants of their imposing ancestor have reformed Harvard, Williams, Cornell, Brown, Rutgers, Pennsylvania, Columbia, and a few other American colleges. SPLENDIDLY NULL Plain people, unaided by the supernatural, without over- powering insight, often claim to perceive what they call the "Yale type," over which gushing school girls gently rave. Nobody ever describes this precious type; but everybody [425] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN knows that it wears correct clothing, and has faultless manners and morals. It smiles discreetly, and silently; and sometimes it has tremendous dumb energy. Of this type, there are hun- dreds, with no more variation than the eggs of a hen. It is perfectly good; but it is offensive in being utterly inoffensive. It is never wrongly enthusiastic, because it is never enthusiastic. It never has heretical thoughts, because it never thinks. It acquires and gives forth ideas with all the precision of a parrot. And it has nearly the mental power of the original Yale Bull Dog. Physically, this "Yale type" was once rather aggressive, like the Bull Dog. But now it is not aggressive at all. It forms the ideals of the community ; and then uses all its energy trying painfully to conform to itself. It has no aspirations beyond itself, no mental aspirations whatever. The men most typical of it have often acquired positions where sufficient intellect to purchase or sort tickets is positively required. The simple populace observes that these captains of undergraduate indus- try, at the top of the type, use their predecessors' brains wherever possible; and the simple populace instantly stops thinking. The "Yale type" then becomes a dumb show. But it is so powerful that it blights or discourages even healthy originality, where a man has his own ideas and opinions. The work in the curriculum does not encourage it. The type must stay prosaic and dull; and where sheep-like undergraduates conform to it, they will conform to mental mediocrity, which this type glorifies. But the greatest trouble with the "Yale type" is not that it encourages "faultily faultless, icily regular, splendidly null" mentality, but that it is perfectly satisfied with itself. It skims its few pages. It struggles for its little positions, and its little fame. It worries itself into unhappiness. It absorbs the froth of knowledge and gains practically no mental power whatever. And every man who conforms to it really thinks that he is getting the best possible education. By his complacency, and his laziness, every such man is dragging on the few of mind [426] A FEW EDITORIALS and purpose. And many of this pseudo-Yale type are criti- cising the institutions of Yale, when they should be prayerfully improving or criticising themselves. AN EPILOGUE At the end of our regime, without risking the dangers of excessive brooding over the past, we must indulge in a moment of retrospection. Last February we decided not to follow the path of non-commission. There, indeed, there was no possi- bility of being in the wrong, no chance of giving offense; but there, also, there was no hope of effecting improvement or of uprooting evil. We chose, instead, to be outspoken in whatever we discussed, regardless of the danger of mistakes, or of criti- cism, and to follow what we thought the truth, rather than mere precedent. Hence we have not always been conservative. We have made no effort to agree with our populace; nor have we flattered the undergraduate by telling him what he thinks. It is, of course, impossible either to condemn our work or to approve it by specific, and deplorable failures, or by specific successes. It must be judged as a whole. But whether it receives approval, or none, we do not care, if only it has had some slight influence for the betterment of Yale. We have thus been striving so constantly for what Yale might be, that we may seem to have lost sight of what Yale actually is. The ideal has perhaps fascinated us to unwonted violence. It is a place of greatest possible development for every individual, that we have visualized where every activity has value in itself; where men can advance in their studies, unhampered, according to their ability ; where there is a large appreciation of beauty, and the natural enthusiasm of youth; and where the quality of the undergraduates and of their work is always placed above quantity. We have been privileged merely to recall this ideal. We shall be happy if we have helped at all to bring it nearer. We do not like to stop : a year is much too short. [427] SOME OF RAND'S POEMS AS THEY APPEARED IN THE LIT. AND IN HIS BOOK OF VERSE SILENUS They say Silenus danced once on a cliff That dropped a hundred even fathoms sheer To black-toothed reefs, the toppled battlements Raised by Earth-Titans when the world was young And new lands braved the sea. Aye, on the verge The leering wood-god, strayed in merry maze From fevered Bacchanalia, loosed his limbs In a wild clumsy choral prancing, till His inky shadow mocked the silver moon And shocked the somber dignity of night. And now when seas of Time have drowned the torch That flaunted flaming mane at Bacchic feasts, Silenus leaps in motley here a patch Torn from a pale priest's robe, and there a rag Of silk or satin from a lady's gown; For he is mad with stronger drink than wine, And he is mad with baser flame than lust, And from the rim of Time, wild-drunk with life, Flings empty flagons at the Infinite. From "The Dirge of the Sea Children, and Other Poems." (Sherman, French & Co., Boston.) THE GARDEN WALL THE MOTHER Look ye, O children, the rose is blown Gay is our garden now For the Sun is trailing his robes of gold, Warm and scented, and fold on fold, Like a spendthrift monarch, has reckless thrown His cloak o'er a blossoming bough : [429] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN And the little winds that fall So wearily over the wall, Whisper "0 rest ye now To our failing minstrelsy " O to be free, Young and free, And sleep in the shade of the wall ! THE CHILDREN If ye climb by the twisted oak That grows in the garden there, (There's a limb that ye all may grip, If ye dare the risk of a slip, And the toll of a tattered cloak, And a snarl of twigs in your hair) Ye may win, if ye do not fall, To the top of the garden wall. Over, O over the garden wall, Out to the beckoning road Looping away where the mountains call, Stooping to play where the valleys fall, Down to the shore of a sunlit sea Flashes the beckoning road O to be free, Old and free, And follow the beckoning road!

A PAGAN'S CREED A flow of golden shadows, love and laughter, And gleam of summer tears; Bright spectres born of sunlight and then after Come the dead years. For what is life without the loss and winning The lure of lidded glance, The ecstasy of joyous-hearted sinning, The shadow-dance By moonlight down an ilex-hidden hollow Of mountain solitudes, Where the dear ghosts of dead Bacchantes follow Through haunted woods? [431] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN Life is a pagan, dancing in the glamour Of ruddy sunset-light, Who scorns the sequel to the revel's clamor Tears in the night. So, though the years bring dearth of easy pardon, And wealth of barren ground, Still let the torchlight waver down the garden, The cymbals sound Till, through the panting, bare-limbed festal madness, With the red morning-glow Comes at the last the clear-eyed cynic sadness The wise Gods know. THE LONELY ROAD I think thou waitest, Love, beyond the Gate Eager, with wind-stirred ripples in thy hair; I have not found thee, and the hour is late, And harsh the weight I bear. Far have I sought, and flung my wealth of years Like a young traveler, gay at careless inns See how the wine-stain whitens 'neath the tears My burden wins ! And wilt thou know me, Love, with bended back, Or wilt thou scorn me, in so drear a guise? I have a wealth of sorrows in my pack, One lonely prize Thy dream and dross of sin. . . . O, dim the fields I may not find thee in so dark a land Yet I await what hope the turning yields And beg with empty hand. THE LIAR I wrought me a lyric of fire and fear, And called on the world to heed Till strong men blenched at my haggard face And shuddered, but would not read. [*] SOME or RAND'S POEMS So I stole me the gold of the mines of Joy And fashioned a conscious lie And they gave me the wreath of the kings of Song And prayed that I might not die! (For the lie that I wrought was as old as the world And dear as the vision of Heaven Of the crimson lure of a maiden's lips And the myth of a sin forgiven!) But my heart was sick, and my soul grew less, With the light of my failing days, Because I had lied to my Knowledge-God For the pottage of human praise. O I clung to the rim of the cliffs of Hell And called on an empty Name Till there dropped the tears of a weeping Truth And saved my soul from the flame. So I hid my soul in a maiden's hair, And climbed to a clearer view And I found I had lied to a lying God, And the myth I had sung was true! [433] 'THE DEAN" A FEW "DAILY THEMES" THE ADVANTAGES or BEING ON PRO. Being of a highly lazy and shiftless nature, I have had the fortune to be on cut or mark probation, or both, every term but one since I have been in attendance at Mr. Hadley's col- lege. Until I have exceeded my allowance of absences I am in a fearful state. I never get up in the morning, never eat break- fast, never do a lesson, never go to bed. I do not know my professors by sight till after two or three weeks of wild cutting and marking have resulted in a cold note from Mr. Tully and a subsequent notification that I am on pro. Ah! then what a change comes over my life. I rise early, wash, dress and breakfast, all with great leisure and comfort, stroll to chapel at eight minutes after eight, and attend every class, arriving just one and one-half minutes ahead of time. I write home often, refrain from the nightly poker session and drinking bout, and am in bed every night by half-past eleven. My step is firm and my eye clear, for now I have a firm rock beneath my feet. No temptation toward cutting an unprepared recitation disturbs my erstwhile vacillating mind. My whole life is a model of regularity and order; janitors set their watches by my movements, as more accurate than the chapel clock. And I never plunge into my little white trundle bed at night without a grateful prayer to Dean Jones, thanking him for his all- provident wisdom in establishing the institution of "probation." ' ' ON THE ART OF WPIISTUNG IN A BATHROOM It is needlessly rude to ask whether you have ever stood under a shower-bath, but it is quite essential to know whether you have ever whistled there. Try it some time. The falling water and the steam lend a peculiar mellow tone which is echoed [435] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN and re-echoed against the tiled walls until one's simple note is trilled into innumerable superimposed harmonies and the whole place seems alive with the joy of music. Some day I shall give a concert in a bathroom. Will you come? THE WET BALL (By Doc CORNISH) Here comes that damn ball, about three miles in the air and twisting like a spinning top. From the experience of a few moments before you know it is as wet and slimy and slippery as a piece of wet soap. Will it ever come down? It is still a half-mile up and the ends are coming at you like racing steers. At last it has come and you have formed the pretty little basket of arms and stomach into which any decent dry ball would drop and lie contented. This is not an ordinary ball. It hits the basket all right but doesn't stop there for long. You give it a little squeeze and it slips a little. You squeeze harder, to stop it. Just then someone hits you right where that little basket had been. Zip! The ball has gone like a shot. You make a few strenuous efforts to grab it as it goes and then hear the referee award the ball to your opponents. THE WAYS OF PROVIDENCE Jim holed out his put on the eighteenth green and cheerily walked to the clubhouse, his beaten opponent following him less buoyantly. He looked at his watch. "Five o'clock," he murmured. That seemed to recall something to his mind and he scratched his head in a puzzled way. "Good God ! I forgot I had physiology !" Jim bellowed. "Damn me for an ass !" The Dean had told him another cut would mean a two weeks' rusti- cation, and he was having Helen up for both the Brown and Princeton games. All the exuberance of having beaten Hal for the first time was gone. "Was ever a man so shot with hard luck?" he thought, as he kicked off his golf shoes. Two hours later he sat in his room in the depths of despair trying [436] A FEW "DAILY THEMES" to explain in his letter to Helen what rustication meant and that he couldn't have her up. His roommate, Bob, burst in, eyed him scornfully, and said, "Just about outdoing yourself to get rusticated, aren't you, Jim?" "Thanks," was Jim's ironic answer. "Don't thank me, thank Underhill; he gave us a cut this afternoon!" Jim deliberately tore up his letter; a glimmer of the faith in Providence which he had lost years ago returned. THE QUINNIPIAC AT EVENING Swept by the wind, flattened smears of smoke scrawled across the sky. The rain had stopped, but the clouds still hung low in an almost pure monochrome. Against this back- ground the taut rigging of the four-masted schooner Dean E. Brown stood out like the lines of a Whistler etching. Between her masts a pink-yellow tongue of blast-furnace glowed sharp, and died again into the soft dominant. The merely-breathing wind mingled salt tang and city medley into a toneless smell of mystery. Lights appeared stealthily along the shore, but seemed as unreal and ineffectual as their reflected paths in the dark water close at hand. Three belated oyster-fishers sculled their half-seen skiffs up the river, shat- tering the reflected gleams of light into a thousand sparkles. They passed on into the gathering dark, and the dim-yellow light-streams resumed their tranquillity. AT LAST When it came my turn I leaned over the desk and murmured carelessly, "I had a note to report today, Mr. Tully." Mr. Tully glared upon me with all the vehemence of his one hundred and twenty pounds of nervous energy condensed into a wither- ing stare. I gave no sign that I felt it, and added, "The name is Smith, class of 1914." He snorted. "Guess I ought to know you by this time, Mr. Smith. Are you aware (this with biting sarcasm) that your total of marks taken so far this term [437] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN is 38?" I shifted easily to the other foot and inquired blandly, "How about cuts?" "You're doing well on cuts, only 19." I tried to look politely interested. "Ah! is that all, sir?" Mr. Tully, I noted with delight, grasped at the arms of his chair, and was apparently on the point of having a spasm. "Is that all?" he repeated, evidently controlling himself with the great- est difficulty. "Isn't that about enough? Do you realize that every cut or mark you take from now on means an hour off? You're lucky the Dean hasn't rusticated you to Milford for six weeks!" "Milford? Ah, a very pleasant little place. I remember the Milford Inn could you tell me if there is any chance of the Dean's reconsidering his decision?" Mr. Tully, that doughty impersonation of even-handed justice, was floored at last. "I haven't time to talk to you ! Next man !" he said chokingly, his face purple with rage. I walked out of the office jauntily. I was on "pro." true, but I had achieved the purpose of my college career I had "hung one on old Tully." THE BROMIDIAN It seems to me that I have never noticed the bromidian so much as I have this year on getting back to college. If one person has asked me if I have had a good summer, at least one hundred and fifty have. I told the first fifty perhaps that I had, and hoped that they had, also but after that number I just glared, said "Yes," and departed in haste. "Isn't Wright a great change from Old Alumni?" and "How well the Campus looks with all its new grass and the brick pavement," are others which delighted my heart. I thought I had about reached the string of them when this afternoon I called on a Freshman who is rooming in the above-mentioned dormitory. I found him in, and before he could get them off on me I flung the bromides at him. I thought I had omitted none of them, but as I was just getting my coat on he said, "Well, Bill, now that you've found the way, do come soon again." I grabbed my hat and ran down the hall, muttering as I went. [438] A FEW "DAILY THEMES" THE DANCER She was doing a toe-dance in black tights. Plump, muscular, small and ugly, she darted around, like an animated gnat, in perfect rhythm. Jeers and howls of suddenly unbottled laughter sparkled from the fellows. Never before had any- thing quite so funny been seen at Poli's. Bravely she tried to smile down the sense of burlesque that her "Squab-liquities" had unchained. "Oh, my gawd, my gawd!" groaned Newbold, from the first row. She couldn't bear it any longer. The smile faded from her lips and still dancing bravely, fantastically, but spiritlessly on, she sobbed so low that only a very few could hear: "I wish I wuz home ! I wish I wuz home !" SLEEPLESSNESS He flung back the bedclothes, flounced to his feet and groped his way to the window. His bare feet shrank back from a soggy heap of wet snow on the floor. Leaning on the sill, his elbows melting dark patches in the fluffy driftlet that covered it, he gazed out. Up the street a blurred arc-light swung to and fro in the flurries, creaking and clicking. There was no other sound except the rustle and swish of the drifting snow in the dim street. Shivering, he drew back, brushed the flakes from his hair, went into the bathroom and ran himself a drink. The water tasted warm and flat. The tinkle of the glass on the washstand seemed to echo through the whole house. Shak- ing silently he tiptoed back to bed, curled up under the luke- warm sheets, and, eyes tight shut, began to whisper the multiplication table. 439 ] 677 WRIGHT 675 Win.. in SO Ml-.

INTIMATE INTERVIEWS Evening in Lawrance. The fire in the fireplace was spark- ling like the Apollinaris at the Lit. banquet. Across the Campus, the Freshman Glee was chirping spasmodically. Dink Stover sat looking desperately at Dink Stover. "All alone," babbled the abecedarians in Dwight. "Yes, Dink, we're all alone at last," remarked Dink Stover keenly, taking his cue from the rack in Dwight Hall. "Well," replied the other, in his most artesian manner, "you've got to decide it for yourself." "Great God !" cried Dink flippantly, "it's too much to expect of me." [442] GEMS FROM THE Record Dink was in agony. Not that he was one of the Norwich Minstrels, but a great problem had slapped him on the wrist. Should he resign from the Elizabethan Club? Could he give up those delightful evenings around the merry ginger-beer bowl infinitesimally dipping a tentative straw into its vivacious nepenthe ? "I suppose for the sake of dear old Yale I must make the sacrifice," he clamored to himself. Dink Stover overheard him. "Good old Dink," he whispered unsympathetically. "Mory's must be saved," suspired the other. "The spiritual interests of the College, Lenox Hall, drinking, the glad hand, the convivial board, these must not fail because of the riotous amusement of a few low-brows in a Club !" Stover applied a T-square to his jaw. Opening his mouth, he wound up his teeth and set them. "By God, Dink, I'll do it !" he admitted weakly. "Good old Dink," murmured Stover splenetically. FATHER WILLIAM, '68 "You are old,, Father William/' the young man said, "Peace and quiet are what you should like; It looks funny for you, when you should be in bed, To go riding around on a bike." "When I was a Freshman," the old man replied, "I covered Grad. Schools for the News, And the bicycle craze that I got in those days I've never been able to lose." "You are old," said the youth, "and a man would suppose Your voice would be husky and weak, Yet you drown out the sound of the wind when it blows, And you shatter glass panes when you speak." "In my bright college years," said the sprightly old man, "I made the Apollo quartet; In one season no more I developed that roar, And I haven't got over it yet." [443] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN "You are old/' said the youth, "as I mentioned before, And should not have much strength in your jaws; Yet you're able to bite the brass knob from a door Had you just as soon tell me the cause?" "You ask too many questions/' the old man replied, "And you don't observe things as you might, Or you'd know the best thing to develop the jaw Is plain Commons beefsteak Good-night !" THE WIFIES (With twofold apologies) I've taken my rooms where I've found 'em, I've flushed an' I've ragged in my time; I've 'ad my pickin' o' bunkies, An' five o' the lot was sublime (?) One was a greasy grinder, One was a "Thought-he-knew-how," One was a fusser an' helluva sport, An' the last two are cussin' me now! I was a green un in Pierson, Slow as a pup to begin, Calvin D. Grinder he made me, An' Calvy was holy as sin. Knew more than me by a long shot, More like a tutor so grim; Said I ought not to read Greek with a trot, An' I learned about roommates from 'im! Then I was shifted to Farnam In fall o' my Sophomore year, An' I got me a stupid young 'eathen, With a twist in his bean that was queer. Harmless, an' simple as kittens Bonehead was no name for Jim. But 'e "knew it all" (nit) tho' I near 'ad a fit, An' I learned about roommates from 'im! [444] GEMS FROM THE Record Then we was packed in The Oval (Or 'e might ha' stuck by me till now), An' I lived with a "ladies' man" critter (Used a mirror to practice his bow!), Taught me the smart set's lingo; Boozed and played cards with a vim, For 'e sloughed me one night, comin' 'ome roarin' tight, An' I learned about roommates from 'im! Then I wound up on The Campus, Roomin' in Vandy serene; Roomin' with two hulkin' roughnecks, The worst that I ever 'ave seen. Shoot at first sight is their motto, An' I scarcely dare haw or hem, An' I dassent do such, for I fear 'em too much, An' I'm learnin' 'bout roommates from them! I've taken my rooms where I've found 'em, An' now I must pay for my rooms ; The more that you 'ave of a roommate, The less you will 'ave o' the glooms; But alone? Why, it's sittin' an thinkin', An' bein' yer own boss, an' free So be warned by my bunch (an' you won't take the hunch) An' learn about roommates from me !

All the tunes I find you playing sound so very odd and queer, Quite unlike the sort of music that you played in yesteryear. [445] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN II Is it true, this thing you tell me,, that the good old tunes are dead, That the newer ones are classy and you have to keep ahead? "Hearts and Flowers" was immortal, I remember once you said. Ill "What the Studio would stand for doesn't go at the Comique," Thus you fling across your shoulder, and I shudder as you speak, Playing turkey-trots and tangoes twenty new ones every week. IV "All the Girlies," so you tinkle, as the couple, gray and old, On the film are reunited; and I want the heart to scold: Ah, Thalia ! what's become of "Silver Threads Among the Gold" ? SOME NEW ADVENTURES OF STOVER (Not by O. Johnson, 1900) 1. The Awakening of Democracy Big Tom Mulligan rose to go. Dink's best chair creaked and fell to pieces as he rose, and our hero thrilled with a sense of the man's power. Dink followed him to the door, where, with easy nonchalance, Mulligan bit off the better half of a large slab of eating tobacco. "You have made me see things in a new light," said Dink. "God bless you!" The next morning he went out and bought six flannel shirts and a ready-made tie. ***** 2. The Sentimental Motif Dink, for the first time, looked her squarely in the face. He had never really noticed before her beautiful large black eyes. She seemed to be waiting for him to open the conversation. "I feel confoundedly sentimental," thought Stover, uneasily. Then he spoke to her: "Do you get those lovely black eyes from your mother?" [446] GEMS FROM THE Record "No ; my father gave me those," she replied. "The old lady usually lands on my jaw. Did you say cornflakes and cream?" * * * # * 3. A Scene from Student Life The room was thick with tobacco smoke. Off in one corner, Bill Simmons, the Freshman from Wyoming, was dealing faro for the entertainment of two assistant professors and the cap- tain of the chess team. Old Tom Mulligan was explaining to the rest of the crowd how much it improved the looks of a room to sprinkle sawdust on the floor. Dink, who was sitting on the hearth-rug, his legs idly dangling, could not help con- trasting the scene with the rich luxuriousness of his own apartments in the bridal suite of the Hotel Taft. He felt that he had at last tracked and run to earth the true Yale spirit, and the thought coursed through his veins like new wine. He rose and addressed Bill Simmons, his voice choky with emotion. "Lend me your Durham, old man," he said. "I'm dying for a drag." ROSENBERG : A YELLODY (Beg pardon, Clari) When Rosenberg low lieth The students call, "Oh, fie! Let curses on him fall." But the solemn Phi Bet' sigheth For things sartorial With a Grecian melody Of tragic agony When Rosenberg low lieth. At eve old Battell boometh With a discordant tone. At noon the classroom glummeth Or gives a lunchless groan. At midnight the drunk cometh Alas ! but not alone. [447] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN When ire within him swelleth The mighty Soph'more yelleth, The callow Freshman frisketh, The angry Junior helleth And thus his chances risketh; His wrath no man denieth, When Rosenberg low lieth. To THE DRAMATIC ASSOCIATION They will dig up a mummied drama they will brush it and comb its hair, They will dress it in modern plumage, 'til the author would rave and swear. They'll rewrite all the portions that please them, and expurgate those that do not, And make up with elegant costumes the parts that they lose of the plot. But however the critic may grumble ; however the scholar may blame, The people who come to Commencement delight in the show all the same. And you'll give to the audience assembled, a joy which no critic can mar, When you play the play as it wasn't for the people at Yale as they are. THE KING OF THE BENZENE RING; OR THE FATAL Kiss (By A. C. Swinburne, Provided He'd Been a Chemist) There once was a rogue of a homologue, of the tribe of the Brombenzenes, Who dared to care for the daughter fair of the phyle of the Phenylenes ; Cried he, "My divinity, chemic affinity calls us to clasp and kiss, And to swift unite with a flash of light in a hydrocarbonic bliss! O take no swain like the dull Methane of the dissolute Disacryl Would ye be the bride of an aldehyde or a chloride of cacodyl? [448] GEMS FROM THE Record Would ye be the queen of a base Amine? O hark to the song I sing For I'm no hydroxyl nor humble carboxyl, but King of the Benzene Ring!" Said the maid, "You'll excuse me, for, though you amuse me, I fear I shall never be wed; My nature ketonic needs friendship platonic, at marriage I tremble with dread; Still if you'll gargle with dipropargyl and kindly distil on a bath, When you're perfectly sure that you're perfectly pure, to allay your excusable wrath, A kiss organic and hydrocyanic I'll print on your manly lips." He cried, "Ah, love, till the Bunsens above in the lockers have suffered eclipse, Till Professors are dead and the formulae said and all of the lectures done, That kiss I'll keep till the final sleep shall snatch me away from the Sun!" So he bent his head they kissed! then dead he fell to the floor with a moan ! "O help ! it's catalysis ! My analysis ! here I am all alone !" Cried the maid in fright then, O horrible sight ! she turned leuco-malachite green, For a spectre arose from a heap of glucose and addressed her with mournful mien! "Alas ! by the bliss of a prussic kiss I was deftly dehydrolyzed, But I'll gauntly haunt and I'll grimly daunt till you're utterly polymerized! No more you'll eat of the glycol sweet and sleep in peace and alone, For there in the dark I'll await you stark, O wicked Phenanthraquinone !" ACROSS THE FIELDS TO VAN (With apologies to Richard Burton) "The new hedges between the Library and Dwight Hall deserve notice Hedges bordering all other Campus [449] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN walks, particularly the main thoroughfares, would be even more desirable." Yale News, November 5, 1913. On either side the crosswalks lie Long fields of barley and of rye, Enclosed by lines of shrubbery In geometric plan, Where stately Seniors wander by, Across the fields to Van. Where baseball reigned in other days, The slender, scented poppy sways; An archway opens through the maze The long stalks form the span. And down this vista Sophomores gaze Across the fields to Van. The sunshine streaming down in floods Strikes color from the clover-buds, Where peaceful cattle chew their cuds, And with a sprinkling-can The Dean goes watering his spuds, Across the fields to Van. No more the antic Sophomores play Upon the sward when ends the day; But each still star sends down a ray On meads untrod by man. Come, let us take our quiet way Across the fields to Van.

[456] EX-PRESIDENT TAFT ARRIVING AT YALE PROFESSOR TAFT SURROUNDED BY His SINE QUA NON STATISTICAL Two hundred and eighteen men use tobacco, while one hun- dred and sixty-eight confess that they drink a certain amount of alcoholic liquor. One hundred and sixty-two men wear glasses ; one hundred and eighteen of these having worn them before entering college. Two hundred and fifty-eight members of the Class have boarded at Commons. Just a hundred, or practically one-third of the class have voted. Twenty-nine graduates and three non-graduates admit that they are engaged ; one graduate and three non-graduate^ are married. The average number of states of -the Union that members of the Class have been in is seventeen. Two have been in all the states, while one has been in only two. The average number of four-year men with whom each man is unacquainted, is twenty-eight, while thirty-eight men are acquainted with all their classmates. One hundred and forty-four men have been abroad. One hundred and eighty-two men have done no work while in College towards paying their way through College; while one hundred and fourteen have engaged in some form of work with this end in view. Of the latter, twenty-eight have done tutoring, twenty-six have worked in the summer, nineteen have waited on table and thirteen have managed eating houses. Forty-six other occupations are mentioned. A total of thirty- one members of the class have succeeded in paying all their expenses while at College. The average per cent of College expenses paid by each of the one hundred and fourteen men spoken of above is forty-nine. The average per cent of the total expenses of each member of the class paid by him by work done during College is eighteen. The average age of the class is 22 years 6 months. The oldest man is 36, the youngest, 19 years 4 months. The aver- age weight is 149% pounds. The heaviest man, 210 pounds, [458] STATISTICAL is just twice the weight of the lightest, 105 pounds. Five feet 10 inches is the average height of the class; the tallest man, 6 feet 4 inches, being just a foot taller than the shortest. Religious Denominations.

The average yearly allowance received from home, of the two hundred and eighty-three men who stipulated their income, is $985. This includes forty-one members of the Class who received no money from their families during their College course. The largest individual expenses of the four years are as follows : Freshman year, $2,800 ; Sophomore year, $3,400 ; Junior year, $4,000, Senior year, $5,300. Total, $15,500. Smallest individual expenses: Freshman year, $100; Sopho- more year, $150 ; Junior year, $200 ; Senior year, $350. Total, $800. Perhaps the most valuable of these statistics, however, the average expenditures of the Class, in each of the four years of College, are as follows: Freshman year, $1,070; Sophomore year, $1,103; Junior year, $1,204; Senior year, $1,230. The average expense per man for the entire four years is $4,607. It is estimated from these and other figures of the two hundred and thirty-two members of the Class, who made mention of their expenses on the statistical blanks, that the total expense of these men, throughout their college course, was $1,068,925.

JIM AND BILL 461 ] OPINIONS ON VARIOUS COLLEGE TOPICS In order to obtain the sentiment and constructive opinion of the Class on the various phases of Yale life, its organizations and its social system, eight questions involving somewhat lengthy answers were asked this year on the statistical blanks. Replies to these questions, embodying our ideas about Yale, and our suggestions for the general welfare of the College, are here set down, with the twofold purpose, that they may per- chance be of some little benefit to the College and to future generations, and that they may furnish an interesting com- parison with our views on these same questions, in years to come. The advice to Freshmen, given in answer to the first of these questions, is interesting and decidedly varied, and ranges from suggestions as to the proper hour at which the Freshman should rise, and the precise courses and activities he should avoid, to many philosophical dissertations upon the curriculum and the social system. The dominating note of this mass of advice, however, is this : for the Freshman not to lose sight of his studies as the most important thing in college, and having once obtained a good foundation in these, to concentrate his ener- gies on one or two extra-curriculum activities. Two answers which voice this sentiment are: "Don't get so much interested in extra-curriculum activities as to forget the real object of your coming to Yale," and "Cultivate a habit of study and a desire for high scholarship." As to advice concerning the activ- ities outside of the curriculum, thirty-one men urge a Fresh- man to select carefully one activity, and work at that with all his might. Four men suggest heeling the News; five say to go out for that which will be worth most to him, and five more, what he is best fitted for. Ten men simply advise the Fresh- [462] OPINIONS ON VARIOUS COLLEGE TOPICS man to "work," and twelve more resort to the rather inelegant, though forceful expression, "Keep your mouth shut." Thir- teen of us think the attribute most to be desired in a Freshman is that he follow the advice given this year at the Freshman Reception, by President Hadley, as summed up in the words, "Be yourself," while somewhat related to this is the Socratic commandment, "Know thyself," given by several. Among the things that the Freshman is urged not to do, are : Not to worry about the Fraternities, not to conform to the Yale type, not to overestimate the importance of success in athletics, not to stand in awe of upper-classmen, not to cut classes, espe- cially while in New Haven, nor to form opinions of Yale or of one's classmates too hastily. The answers to the second of these questions, "What is the most valuable thing you have obtained from your College career?" indicate beyond a doubt, that, in the minds of most of us, our friendships have been the chief assets of our College course. Over one hundred men speak of friendship in this con- nection, while the next most valuable asset, "general broaden- ing," is subscribed to by fifty-six. It is interesting to note that answers in regard to education are decidedly in the minority, only ten men in all, considering the many benefits from the cur- riculum, in this light, as of prime importance. Contact and association with men, broader sympathy and wider experience, self-reliance and self-control, humility and independence, ability to think clearly and to concentrate, appreciation of literature and art, and "Inspiration which comes from working with a great body of men," are the main points mentioned in this regard, as the most valuable things of our College career. Of equal interest to the foregoing set of answers are those in reply to the next question on the statistical blanks, "What do you regret most in your College career?" As has been done many times before, always, perhaps, to the satisfaction of certain members of the Faculty, the Senior Class has voted this year that its neglect of the curriculum is its greatest regret. Seventy-nine men agree that they have wasted their oppor- [463] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN tunities for study, twenty-five of them attributing this to a tardy realization of the true value of a college career. Nine- teen say that they have wasted their time by choosing the easiest courses, while fourteen regret that they did not make a more serious attempt for Phi Beta Kappa. The question of the extra-curriculum is again in prominence. Thirty-one men think that they should have taken a greater part in these activities, thirteen limiting themselves to the regret that they did not go out for athletics, and five that they did not heel for the Neves, while nine are sorry that they did not concentrate on at least one field of endeavor. The question of Yale's athletic reverses is an entirely new phase, and one of con- siderable importance, as shown by the fact that nineteen men consider this the greatest regret in their College career. Other answers to this question are, "Failure to cultivate a larger acquaintance," "Waste of time due to following course of least resistance," and "Inability to attend full four-year course." Perhaps the most valuable question of all on the statistical blanks, however, is this, "What, in your estimation, is Yale's greatest need?" From the many answers to this question, it would seem that a new and vital need has arisen in the eyes of many of us, that of a major sport championship, which received fifty-four votes. The need of a greater number of professors with sufficient personality to inspire a greater interest in the curriculum is also felt to be of importance, as is likewise a larger endowment and more money given without restriction. Other needs which seem to have become a neces- sity to Yale are: the domination of the individual over what is commonly known as the Yale type; a building on the prin- ciple of the Harvard Union for the development of co-ordi- nation in the College; more confidence in the established order; and a new social system which will do away with the prc-smt so-called unnatural restraint. As a solution of the question, "How can a deeper interest in scholarship be cultivated?" sixty-one men offer the simple remedy of exempting high stand men from all r\ a mi nation*;. [464] OPINIONS ON VARIOUS COLLEGE TOPICS Other means based on the recognition of a high stand are, "the laying of greater emphasis on scholarship as a requirement for eligibility to fraternities and societies," voted by thirteen; and "the division of classes graded according to the ability of the students in their respective courses," which was the answer given by ten men. Another group of replies deal with the faculty and courses. Twenty-nine believe that a greater interest can best be cultivated by the acquisition of more pro- fessors of practical intelligence to develop "individual thought in addition to book learning," while nine believe that it can best be brought about by the inauguration of more outside reading and individual work. Fifteen answer that more oppor- tunities for a personal relationship between students and faculty both in and out of class should be offered ; and nine suggest that the classes be smaller, thus allowing more individ- ual attention. The question of extra-curriculum activities is likewise in evidence; for ten believe that the only way to increase the interest in the curriculum is to decrease the impor- tance of extra-curriculum accomplishments, especially ath- letic. Twenty-seven men, however, believe that there is no need of a further stimulus, while six say that it is impossible to stimulate interest in scholarship artificially. The answers of the class to the question, "Why did you choose Yale in preference to other colleges?" are on the whole most gratifying; for although a third of the class attributes its choice to Yale relatives and a Yale environment, the remain- ing two-thirds, with but two exceptions, praise the College, its graduates and its spirit, from many different angles. Fifty-seven men attribute their choice to their admiration for Yale men, while nine more assign it to the prestige and influ- ence of Yale graduates in every city of the country. Thirty- six attribute their choice of Yale solely to its indomitable spirit, thirty-five to its democracy, the true essential for schol- arship and general broadening of character, and two to the ideals for which Yale stands ; while four say that the reason for their choice was the fact that Yale ideals and manner of [465] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN living are particularly applicable to later life. Of the reasons given for the choice of Yale which pertain strictly to its cur- riculum and its faculty, the most prominent is the efficiency of the Academic Department, voted by eight men. Five answered that it was Yale scholarship, while two said that it was the Music School and one that it was the Art School that brought them to Yale. The last question on the statistical blanks was, "If you were given the power, how would you readjust the College social system, first as to fraternities, and secondly as to societies?" Not as many answers to this question as to the majority of the others have been recorded, but those that have been set down contain many interesting suggestions and constructive opinions on this topic. First as to the Junior fraternities, sixty-one men voted to leave them precisely as they are, while nine would abolish them altogether. Fifty-one advise doing away with all secrecy in connection with these fraternities, for- ty-nine recommending that they be made open houses. Forty- three men suggest that the number of fraternities be increased and the membership of each decreased, while, on the other hand, but four believe that the number of fraternities should be decreased and the membership of each increased. Other recommendations are that inter-fraternity debates and athletic contests be instituted, that the Yale fraternities sever their connection with outside fraternities, and that all elections be given during Sophomore year. As to the Senior societies, seventy-two men would leave them as they are, believing them to be one of the greatest influences for good in the University ; while twenty-one would abolish the whole system, thinking that the Senior societies generate a false atmosphere and an un- necessary constraint. Of those that advocate changes, the majority are in favor of a decrease of secrecy and mysticism. Twenty-six men would abolish only the extreme secrecy, while eleven would do away with all secrecy whatsoever, transform- ing the societies into honorary clubs. [466] OPINIONS ON VARIOUS COLLEGE TOPICS GENERAL VOTES Answers to questions on the statistical blanks, containing preferences of the Class on miscellaneous College topics, not mentioned in the foregoing paragraphs, are given here. Preferences as regards the respective value of a Phi Beta Kappa Key, a News charm, a Lit. Triangle, and the Univer- sity "Y,"- the recognized criteria of success in the curriculum and more important extra-curriculum pursuits, are as follows : First votes Phi Beta Kappa, 183; "Y," 105; News, 17; Lit., 15. Second votes "Y," 145; Phi Beta Kappa, 89; News, 35 ; Lit., 30. Two hundred and twenty men voted in favor of daily chapel, while eighty voted against it. One hundred and fifty-seven, however, are opposed to Sunday chapel; one hundred and forty-eight being in its favor. In reply to the question, "Would you favor a course in current events?" two hundred and forty-seven men replied in the affirmative, and sixty-four in the negative. A few of the answers, both for and against such a course are as follows : "A course in current events would enable one to recognize reliable information." "It would be a time-saver." "A valu- able way of showing significance of modern events in the light of the past." "It would start a habit of keeping in touch with current events." "Men should learn to read the papers, which are sufficient." "Other courses are needed first." In reply to the question, "Should high stand men be exempt from examinations, and, if so, how high a stand would you advocate for exemption?" a majority of men, two hundred and twenty-five, voted in favor of granting this immunity, while one hundred and seven opposed it. The highest mark set for exemption was 3.60, and the lowest, 2.25. The average mark given was 3.19. Replies to the question, "Do you believe in restricting the activities of the undergraduate, whether athletic or other- wise, to two or any number of spheres?" show that the Class [467] HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF NINETEEN FOURTEEN is overwhelmingly opposed to any such restriction. There are three main reasons given by the two hundred and twenty- one men who voted against restricting the undergraduate. Twenty-two uphold the opinion that such affairs should be left to the discretion of the individual. Eighteen say that it would be an unfair restriction on a man of versatile ability; while thirteen believe that public sentiment, not legislation, should discourage excesses in this line. One hundred and ninety-five men advise a man's working his way through College, if he has no other resources, while thirty- six advise him not to do so. As to the most desirable form of work in such a case, of those members of the Class who have themselves worked their way, in whole or in part, sixty-seven recommend tutoring, thirteen, teaching (the two evidently do not appear to be synonymous), and eleven consider managing an eating house the most desirable form of work. 1 1 1 ROLL OF THE CLASS ROLL OF THE CLASS (Where two addresses are given, the first is the permanent one, the second next year's.)
