and faithfully in his position as president and helped to carry the institution through the darkest hour of its life and he is highly deserving o f the praise and appreciation o f the friends o f the college.

A s has been said of Y ork C ollege from its be­ ginning, “ it is the pride of the city of Y o rk and of Y ork C ou nty.” It was founded on A u g. 26, 1890, and tw o weeks later its doors were opened to students.

Its first quarters were rented room s in the W irt B lock. T h e y w ere very unsuitable for college pur­ poses, but served as a makeshift till a building could be erected.”

T h e institution is beautifully situated on the hill in the eastern part o f the city. “ H ere on a cam pus of eleven acres the first building was erected, and was dedicated in June 1892.”

President M. O. M cL au gh lin succeeded Dr. Schell som e four years ago and is today our b e ­ loved leader. U nder his w ell directed and always optim istic supervision, backed b y a stron g board of trustees and with the cooperation of a loyal faculty and student body the institution is m aking rapid strides in all directions.

T h ere are altogether, seven departm ents in the institution— collegiate, academic, m usic, expression, art, business, and hom e econom ics, w hich have a com bined enrollm ent o f eight hundred and tw entyfour. T h e college has a very stron g faculty of w hich m ost o f the m em bers have m aster’ s degrees m their specialty and are continually w orkin g to ­ ward greater efficiency.

W ith such leaders and pushers as the institution lias n ow its success is assured.

“ T h e first president was R ev. J. G eorge, A . M., D. D ., w h o served from A ugust, 1890 to A ugust, 1894. R ev. W . S. Reese, Ph. M., D . D., succeeded P resident G eorge and served three years. O n A ug.

“ A com bination and a form indeed W h ere every god did seem to set his seal T o give the w orld assurance o f a man.”

T o President M cL a u gh lin ’s large faith and in­ dom itable energy is due a large part o f the grow th o f the college during the past few years.

H e has

the genius o f leadership and wins the cooperation o f all classes o f people.

Besides, “ P re x y ” has time to identify him self with every student interest and to be a b ig brother to every student w h o needs his help. “ I w ill sh ow you m y faith b y m y w orks.”

CLASS H IS T O R Y It is to be expected that a class so rem arkable as the class o f 1917 should have an exceptional his­ tory.

T h is is indeed true, and w ere space not limited it w ould be a pleasure to give its glorious record in full. But as it is, a brief accou n t o f its grow th must suffice.

E v e ry student and faculty m em ber o f Y o rk C ol­ lege has felt the strong m agnetic influence of this class. F rom the first, this magnetism has been cen­ tered about M r. G regory, w h o has been president of the class during all four years o f its existence.

A b ou t him the other m em bers,— the pick o f the best students from a large territory, as you shall see,— have gradually gathered. Mr. G regory is the star of Y o rk C ollege. H e has taken a prom inent part in all the progressive enterprises o f our sch ool, from m arauding expeditions by m oonlight and defending the goat at football games, to instructing innocent preps in our academ y. H is first experience in at­ tem pting to make use o f this property of attracting unlike natures, w as in the fall o f 1913. It resulted in draw ing Dan B erger, a graduate of Campbell C ollege A cadem y, H olton , Kansas, to Y o rk C ollege, w here he added his charms to the num erous ones of our president. T h ere w ere a few other m em bers in the class during that first year, but not possessing the right qualities, they soon fell away.

T h e next year several m ore w ere added to our numbers, but on ly tw o remained. Clara Hansen, also from Cam pbell College, and R uth .W arner, from Y ork H igh S chool yielded to this strange fascina­ tion and enrolled in Y o rk C ollege as Sophom ores.

T h e form er, th o’ quiet and unassum ing, w as an invaluable addition to the class, and the latter pos­

sesses qualities, w hich, th o’ we find them hard to de­ scribe or enumerate, are none the less excellent.

Ethel W ildm an , w h o had spent tw o years at O berlin C ollege, Oberlin, Ohio, also con trolled by this m agnetic influence, enrolled , in Y o rk C ollege that same fall, but—-by som e mistake,— -as a m em ber of the Junior class. H avin g an unusual pow er of resistence she w ithstood this incom prehensible force w hich was draw ing her, for an entire year, but it finally affected her health to such an extent that she was unable any longer to pursue her studies, until, in the fall o f 1915, she entered the Junior Class.

Ih e n , in her proper element;! she regained her old energy and enthusiasm. In M iss W ildm an w e gained a very exceptional girl, noted for her im ­ m easurable supply o f pep. and for her poetical genius.

B y the fall o f 1916 this rem arkable m agnetic p ow er had increased so m uch that an unheard of thing occured. T h e class alm ost doubled its num ­ bers in its Senior year. Th e tw o sm artest m em bers o f the Junior Class, feeling a lack o f harm ony with their surroundings, subm itted to this irresistible force and join ed the senior ranks. T h u s we gained G ilford Saunders, you ngest and m ost progressive head o f a household in Y ork C ollege, and G eorge W eber, noted for his prodigious capacity for re­ m em bering and tellin g questionable stories, and for his sm ooth, harm onious flow of w ords, that match­ less eloquence w h ose irresistible persuasiveness has p o w e r to win the smiles o f every pretty co-ed, from the Shyest prep to the most self-confident college belle,— confirm ed wom an-hater tho he is, etc., etc., T hen there is L u cile Bell, graduate from the Uui-

T W E N T Y -S E V E N

versity o f N ebraska w ith the B. S. degree, w ho is teaching D om estic Science in Y ork H igh school, ? nd w h o has chosen this year to com plete her w ork for the A. B. degree, because she recogn ized her op ­ portunity to be ranked am on g the fam ous. Last but not least, there is Seth Jacobson, w h o was form erly a m em ber o f another class, but w ho dropped out o f school to take up other w ork, until

lie m ight enter a class, w hose w orth matched his.

And what w on der that he chose to be a m em ber of the class of 1917, the m ost brilliant and the m ost prom ising class ever graduated from Y ork C ollege.

W h a t a challenge this offers to the class w hich follow s u s ! W h at a record to u p h o ld ! Indeed, the class o f 1917 is a truly rem arkable class, even we admit it.

SO P H O M O R E CLASS

T h e year o f 1915 will g o dow n in the history o; Y ork C ollege as a m em orable one, for it was in the m onth of Septem ber o f that year that t he pre.se . i Soph om ore Class was born. This class, thirty-fi-. c in num ber, com in g from all parts of Nebraska a.id surrounding states brought with them not only a great diversity o f personality and real talent, b t soon generated a “ pep” and enthusiasm that have characterized them thus far in their college life.

T h e y brou gh t jo y to the tired faces of the professors, and the w orn features o f the upper collegiates begun to take on a brighter and m ore hopeful look. Each m em ber took his place in the different student or­ ganizations, assumed his share o f responsibility, and Was soon foun d to be capable and dependable.

E arly in the year, Coach Earl H aw kins was elected sp on so r; M erl Harner, president; M erle Snyder, V ice P resid en t; and M yrtle Broehl, Secretary-Treasurer. U nder the leadership of these peo­ ple. the class enjoyed som e very unique social events, consisting o f oyster-feeds, bologna-fries, and hay­ rack rides.

O f these thirty-five, on ly fifteen came back in the fall o f 1916, som e taking different w ork, a.id som e engaged in the various pursuits o f life. But w ith the addition o f tw elve new recruits, our num­ ber was raised to tw enty-seven. T h e officers elected this year w e re : M iss Clarke, sp on so r; Jake Glur, president; M yrta Schlarb, vice presiden t; and M ary Cave, secretary-treasurer.

A few things that w e have actually been doing this year will give you an idea o f what w e mean to F O R T Y SEV E N

the C ollege and w hat the C ollege means to us. Th e class this year chose fo r its colors, crim son and w h ite; for its flow er, Am erican B eau ty ; and for its m o tto ; “ N on sibi sed om im bus.” O ur class insti­ tuted the first annual Soph om ore-C ollegiate recep­ tion. T h e S ophom ore class furnished the captain o f the cham pion football team, leader o f the O rches­ tra, three out o f six on the tw o debating team s, three out of the four literary presidents during the first semester, half o f the m em bers of the new A thletic Board, football yell leader, besides Cabinet officers, Sandburr, and various other positions.

A few o f the social events of the year w ill lo.ig remain in the m em ory of the m em bers of the class.

O n H a llow e’ en night, a pum pkin-pie feed was the chief feature, and as a result o f this m eeting on the m orning of N ov. 1st, the Seniors and Juniors found the crim son and white flyin g high. St. P atrick’s D a y was observed b y a party at the hom e of Miss Salmon. A pril 10th found us taking a “ hike” up the creek w ith the “ eats” safely tucked under o j r arms. O n A pril 13th w e w ere royally entertained at the hom e of Miss Clarke. O n ly those w h o have had the pleasure o f being entertained b y M iss Clarke can understand the delightful evening that was spent.

A lm ost all o f the class w ill be back next year and expect to finish the course, so w e look forw ard to tw o m ore years, pleasant, profitable, and lon^ to be rem em bered because o f associations and friend­ ships o f inestim able value.

T h ese y o u n g people took their stand in the ranks o f the first and second A cadem y classes.

W ith all the sch ool advantages that Y o rk C ounty affords there is no excuse for not continu in g w ork in an A ca dem y such as that in con nection w ith Y o rk C ollege. Each individual in these classes has seen the im portance o f laying hold of such opportunities.

W h en President M cL aughlin purchased Y ork Business C ollege from B u ckley Brothers last spring, there was added to Y o rk C ollege boosters over •'100 faithful enthusiasts. D u rin g this season’s football, and basketball seasons, these students could be de­ pended upon to assist the C ollege teams with their yells and songs and Confidence, besides supporting their ow n basket-ball team. In debating, oratory, and expression they have been interested too, and have attended all such activities well.

That their enthusiasm has not been entirely expended upon these things, how ever, is evidenced b y the splendid w ork they have accom plished this year, T h e standard in both departm ents of the school has been high, but not too high for m ost o f the students.

T h ose w h o have taken the Com m ercial course are w ell prepared to becom e bookkeepers and office clerk s; those in the Shorthand departm ent are ready for g ood stenographic p o sitio n s ; w here the tw o courses w ere com bined, the student has an excel­ lent foundation for a successful business career.

T h e personnel o f the faculty is such as to in­ spire and bring out the best of w hich a student is capable.

President M cL au gh lin , because of his sym ­ pathy and personal interest in the students has es­ tablished a harm onious and satisfactory adminis­ tration.

Mr. D . A. T rivelpiece, kind and firm is adm ir­ ably fitted for his position as superintendent. B e­ sides having supervision o f the sch ool, he is one of the instructors in B ookkeeping.

M r. A. H . Ellis teacher o f B ookkeeping, R ap­ id Calculation, and Penmanship. T h e Rapid Calcu­ lation consists o f addition, m ultiplication and in­ terest problem s, and is o f great benefit to accou n t­ ants and bookkeepers. T h e Penm anship class has been inspired to greater efforts by know ing they could win penmanship certificates, thirty-five of w hich have been granted by the Z aner-B loser Co. Mr. J. C. Steele has B ookkeeping, A rithm etic, and C om m ercial L aw , all necessary for the success­ ful business man.

Miss A gnes Johnson assists in B ookkeeping.

T h is study is based 0 11 R o w e ’s System o f B ook­ keeping and A ccou n tan cy, and is in four sets, E le­ m entary, W h olesale, Corporation and Banking, m aking a stron g course.

M iss Nina Francis teaches Spelling, and Busi­ ness E nglish, w hich includes Grammar, practical business English, punctuation and correspondence.

Mr. R. E. T ow nsen d has been in charge o f the Shorthand D epartm ent since January first, when M iss D oak resigned. Th e shorthand taught is the G regg System and the T y p ew ritin g is the Ration­ al. 'Che satisfactory way in w hich these students fill positions, reflects great credit upon their de­ partm ent and instruction.

T h e success of the sch ool can be accounted for in a large measure by the spirit o f unity and co -o p ­ eration m anifested b y the students. A nd because the student body is so progressive and enthusiast­ ic, the close relationship existing between this school and Y o rk C ollege is mutually profitable and pleasant.

At tlie beginning of the school y „a r Air. I'ow n-end had charge of th e 1 penmanship"' ciass. Kve.ry student took interest in it and progressed very nicely. A t this time m o v e ­ ment drills and exercises were practiced with great im provem ent.

A t the beginning o f the second semester Mr. Tow nsend: gave up the com m ercial stud­ ies to take charge 1 o f the shorthand depart­ ment. Mr. Ellis then took charge of the pen­ manship class.

D u rin g January tlie class numbered 275.

Drills and exercises were given and a certain am ount o f outside' w ork was' required. Th e students began to im prove w on derfu lly w hen Air. Ellis asked them to try for a certificate.

At the present time the fo llo w in g have received certificates, the first tw elve named being on the p ictu re : R o y T u ck e i, L yle Reeh, YV. J.

This departm ent has maintained a steady grow th throughout the past year in all o f its branches. T h ere have been m ore special students than ever before, and much enthusiasm has been in evidence. A num ­ ber o f students have appeared to advantage in con ­ nection with various college activities, as well as be­ fore the W o m e n ’s Club, and have shown much talent and ability that w e shall expect to hear from them in higher musical circles in tim e to com e.

There w ill be tw o graduates from this depart­ ment this year— M iss Pearl W ildm an in violin, and M iss H elen P feffer in piano. B oth are Y ork girls and bear testim ony to the high standard maintained.

W e believe in quality rather than quantity.

T here is m ore interest in the theoretical branches

than ever before, w hich indicates m ore serious study and a desire for a better foundation.

T h is is one of the largest departm ents of the school. Last year, in piano alone there were seventyone w ho were not registered in any other depart­ ment. If it continues to grow in the next few years as it has in the past, it will not on ly be necessary to have m ore teachers, but also a building devoted ex­ clusively to that department.

A great im petus has been given to the serious study o f m usic in the last few years b y the fact that m any o f the larger colleges and universities, includ­ ing our ow n U niversity o f Nebraska, grant credits for such w ork to apply on the A . B. degree.

M usic is one o f the finest o f the arts and its value cannot be overestim ated.

T h e purpose o f this club is to [develop the love and ap­ preciation o f m usic, and to keep in touch with the m usical

world.

M eetings are held on W edn esday aftern oon o f each week, and very interesting and helpful program s have been given this year.

W e hope our club m ay g row and becom e an im portant factor in the m usical departm ent o f this institution.

at hom e did the band help our teams on to victory, but also in other tow ns. A ccom p a n yin g the football rooters to Central City, and the basketball fans to W esleya n it left those institutions under a stronger im pression than ever that Y o rk C ollege has “ real pep.”

O w in g to the illness o f their leader, Dean A m a ­ don, the band con cert and the trips to surrounding tow n s w hich had been planned for the sprin g had to be abandoned. N ext year how ever, the band p rom ­ ises to be a bigger and better organization than ever.

Y O R K COLLEGE ORCHESTRA.

T h e season o f 1916-17 was a very successful one for the Orchestra. M ost of the m em bers this year were new, but they w ere w illing to do a lot o f hard practice. F o r the success of this organization, much credit is due Dean Chas. H . A m adon, director, and Mr. T a tlow , manager-.

T h e O rchestra consisted o f the fo llo w in g m em ­ b e r s : B yron W . T a tlow , 1st v io lin ; Pearl W ildm an, 1st v io lin ; A llen Lam m , 2nd v io lin ; L y le Reeh, clarinet; A rthur W o lfe , corn et; L aw rence D onegan, euph on ium ; G eorge D eM etz, trom b o n e ; O rville Crew, drum s; and Flelen Little, pianist.

T h e schedule this year was a rather heavy one, and altho no great distances w ere covered audiences everyw here w ere large and appreciative and many places have asked for return dates next season.

T h e longest trip of the season w hich included three nights in Omaha, cam e in N ovem ber. T h e program was varied by solos and duets b y Mr. T a tlo w and Miss W ildm an and the readings by M iss Little contributed greatly to the success of the entertainments. T h e trip was a success in every w ay, and was m uch en joyed b y all.

T h e Orchestra proved to be a v ery sociable and jo lly com pany this year. Several events will ever remain in the m em ories o f the m em bers, including an oyster supper at the hom e o f Mr. T a tlow , at C otesfield, a five o ’clock luncheon at the hom e of Dean A m adon, and the splendid dinners given by Miss W ildm an and M iss Little.

N ext year the Orchestra w ill be larger and bet­ ter and will continue to be a valuable asset to the life o f the school.

T his department, though still in its infancy, gives prom ise o f great things in the not far distant fu­ ture, due to the untiring efforts and indom itable enthusiasm o f Prof. E. R. Misner.

T w o years ago six pupils enrolled in the tw o year course. L ast year there were seven graduates with an enrollm ent in the w hole departm ent num bering eighty-five. T h is year there w ill be fourteen grad­ uates with a total enrollm ent o f one hundred and ten students. Besides the regular w ork m the class­ room , Prof. M isner gives fifty private lessons each week.

Each M on d ay evening, since the holidays, has been set aside for the E xpression Club. These m eetings w ere held, at first, in P rof. M isner’s stu­ dio but the crow ds soon taxed the seating capacity to its utm ost and it was found necessary to m ove to the chapel. So many “ outsiders” have been reg­ ular in attendance and at the last few meetings o f the club, even the chapel was filled.

Each club m em ber is expected to appear at least once, thus assuring plenty o f numbers for each program . On many occasions som e student has made his first appearance before the p u b lic; the large crow d , the sense of being so all-alone, along with the fear of criticism by som e classm ate have made his knees shake, his tongue stick to the roof o f his mouth, w hile his hands and feet just w ou ld n ’t stay w here they should. H ow ever, after he has gulped out his poem , listened to the applause, and

DEPARTM ENT

heard P r o f’s: ever ready and en cou ragin g: "T h a t was very well done, M r. , just a little better un­ derstanding of the selection and gettin g accustom ed to the stage, you know , som e day Mr. ------- w ill be an excellent reader,” he has gained strength and secretly vow ed that E xpression is a good thing after all.

O riginality has been encouraged in addition to readings a’ la Leland Pow ers. Several clever stunts have been put on as closin g num bers, or the spe­ cialty for the evening. On som e occasions these stunts have been alm ost too original, the particiants blindly go in g into them, m aking up their lines as the plot thickened. A fter the curtain descended 0 1 1 their im prom ptu endeavors these conceited act­ ors— in-the-m aking have been m ost gleeful over their success in "fo o lin g the p ublic.”

T w o very creditable productions, in the line of plays, were given last fall. T h e com edy “ O ur Jim ” was m ost su ccessfully played in ten Nebraska towns, the characters all handling their parts excep ­ tionally well. Shakespeare’s “ T w elfth N igh t” is a feature of the department. D u rin g the last tw o years it has been capably presented fifteen times.

T h e A dvanced Juniors will put on tw o one-act plays this spring. T h e Seniors are scheduled to ap­ pear in their annua! play, M ay seventh. M ay eighteenth and tw enty-fifth are the dates set aside for expression com m encem ent program s.

T h e bright, sunny kitchen is very neat and at­ tractive and is v ery com pletely equipped, having sinks with both hot and cold water, gas plates, o v ­ ens and all necessary culinary equipm ent. Each desk has a su fficient num ber o f utensils lor tw o persons, and a supply desk and cupboard contain the larger and m ore general equipment. H ere at a l­ m ost any hour o f the day one can find y ou n g w o ­ men arrayed in w hite aprons preparing tem pting dishes, the odors o f w hich rise to the halls above and cause m any a hungry-student to wend his w ay to the D om estic Science department.

T h e w ork is n ot confined to cook in g alone, as is readily discovered, especially when costum es are needed or som e college Stunt is being given. Th en the girls are called upon to use their kn ow ledge and ability as seamstresses.

D u rin g the past year and a half ihe students have had charge of the serving o f a num ber o f ban­ quets and helping in m any other capacities and have been highly com m ended for their w ork. T h e tiain in g they have received in planning for and serving the large crow ds, w ill be very valuable, to each one, if not n ow at a later period when they m ay be expected to assist or m anage the serving at som e large function.

A girl m ay have had a great deal o f practical ex­ perience in the art o f cook ery, but she needs to sup­ plem ent this w ith scientific k now ledge, and this she can obtain in this department.

T h e reference library relating to this departm ent is very w ell selected and a large num ber o f im p o r­ tant b ooks on this line of w ork have been added, w hich aid greatly in the w ork, as w ell as m aking it m ore interesting.

ART DEPARTM ENT T h e departm ent o f A rt has proven itself to bo valuable to the C ollege and each year iinds it b e t ­ ter developed in all respects; its aim being to aid the student in his liking for art and to teach him to do system atic w ork.

The highest service that Art cai. a^com^lish for man is to becom e, at once the voice of his nobler aspirations and the steady disciplinarian o f his em o­ tion s; and it is with this m ission that the art de­ partment o f Y ork C ollege is at present concerned.

A full course in A rt is available as all the steps are taught from sim ple still life and nature studies, work from casts and life, on through water colors, oils, tapestries and pastels. T h e ever increasing popularity o f china decorations has called for all the different china treatments, in conventional as well as naturalistic, in enamels, lusters and the many gold treatments. A Revelation kiln, the m ost satisfactory made for firin g china is ow ned b y the C ollege and operated by the teacher so that no de­ lay is caused b y sending the china aAvay for firing.

Instruction in N orm al D raw in g w ork has been

made a special feature this year, a large class of tw en ty-five taking up the w ork o f designing, ar­ rangement, lettering, w orking draw ings, ived hand, com bined with nature study and coloring.

I nder Alm ira Graves K oon the instructor, all de­ partments have attained their present high stand­ ard which gained a place for them selves in the A n ­ imal. A rt exhibition of the departm ent held during com m encem ent week, every department was rep­ resented, pictures, framed and unframed, w orks of the pupils during the year, com bined with the dis­ play o f decorated china was w orthy of praise and credit to the department.

Alt exhibition o f pictures famous as old master productions was also given at this time. Th e p ic­ tures being throw n on a screen by means o f Stereopticon, and a history given as each picture was presented. Such is this departm ent w hich developes the purest and highest elements in human happi­ ness, trains the mind through the eye, and the eye through the mind, as the sun colors flow ers, so A rt colors life.

It is the purpose o f the C ollege Y o u n g M en ’s Christian A ssociation to aid in the developm ent of the moral and spiritual life o f the men in Y o rk C ollege.

Our devotional m eetings are held every T u esday evening at seven o ’clock. A t these m eetings the leaders discuss problem s that com e up in the life of every college man, and, discuss them in such a w ay as to aid each m em ber in the solution of the p rob ­ lems that he will meet som etim e in life.

A side from our w eekly devotional m eetings we have m aintained a Gospel T eam that has carried on and assisted in religious m eetings in the near b y tow ns. A lth ou gh w e have n ot done as m uch in this line as w e hoped, yet a nucleus has been form ­ ed around w hich w e can build stron g and success­ ful G ospel T eam s next year.

T og eth er with the Y . W . C. A . w e have m ain­ tained tw o m ission study classes. O ne dealing with the conditions and challenges o f South Am erica,

taught b y Mr. G eorge W e b e r ; the other class led b y Mr. Dan B erger took up the study o f Islam. In connection w ith these m ission study classes we have held join t m eetings once every tw o m onths in the special interest of missions.

W e have not had a Y . M. C. A. B ible Study class because so many o f the y ou n g men w ere enrolled in the B ible Classes o f the college course, that it was practically unnecessary for the A ssociation to attem pt to maintain one.

L ast spring tw o of our m em bers attended the convention at Estes Park. This is one of the m ost pleasant and beneficial trips that any you n g person could take and w e expect to send several m ore this spring.

W e earnestly feel and believe that no man’s c o l­ lege course is com plete unless he has been an active m em ber o f Y . M. C. A. and has attended a student conference at Estes Park.

From the gayly-drc'ssed Italian in the lively Tarantelle to the dainty w h ite-g ow n ­ ed V irginia maiden in the stately M inuet— each vied with the other in pleasing the queen. Last cam e the w inding of the M ay Pole, a graceful per­ form ance, ever new and interesting.

*— Charter M em ber.

If you w ish to kn ow the secret o f arousing “ pep,” ask a Zetalethean. A few years ago a great defi­ cien cy in this im portant article was felt in our co l­ lege, and the question as to how to supply it, was quickly answered b y the organization o f the Zeta­ lethean L iterary Society.In the fall o f the year 1914, som e progressive m em bers o f Y o rk C ollege student b o d y answered Dean A sh cra ft’s plea for some activity on the part o f students to increase the interest and efficien cy in literary w ork, b y assum ing the responsibility for organ izin g som e new societies. T h e result was a m eeting in P rofessor M organ ’s class room , Oct. 12, w hen the tw o Zeta Societies were organized.

M iss Ethel W ildm an , to w hom the inspiration of m any a “ pep” m eeting is due, was elected president

of the Zetalethean society, and thus, w ith the m ost enthusiastic girl in school as leader, the success of the undertaking was assured. T h e other offices w ere held b y earnest workers, and with a small but enthusiastic group o f supporters, they ied the society through the first trials o f a hom eless ex­ istence, until, much scrubbing and varnishing, and m any visits to furniture stores and paint shops, to ­ gether with a few feeds and m any m erry times, re­ sulted in a splendid new Zeta hall.

T h e first m eeting in the new hall w as held Jan. 22, 1915, and the first real literary program was given that night. This m eeting set for us a high standard in attendance, order and literary w ork, w hich w e have faithfully striven to uphold. N o longer handicapped b y lack o f a m eeting place, our

ONE HUNDRED FORTY

effort to maintain this standard has been gratifyin gly successful. W e have been fortunate in having a succession o f presidents really interested in m aking our society w orth while. R u b y L oom er, M ary Rankin, R uth W arn er and Garda Parker have all held this office, and each has been a faithful and capable executive. M iss Nina Belle C aldw ell w h o n ow holds this office, is a charter m em ber o f the society, and has been one o f its m ost loyal and m ost enthusiastic m em bers from the first. H er ad­ ministration has been a very successful one, and

has carried on the steady advance in efficien cy to ­ ward w hich we are striving.

O ur society n ow numbers thirty-four and every m em ber is a zealous and loyal Zeta, w ork in g in harm ony w ith the officers in charge. A n d the thing that is best about us is that we still have as much “ pep” as w hen we started. W e have n ot on ly pro­ gressed m u ch ; w e are still p rogressin g and will continue to progress to the realization of the high­ est standards possible.

*— Charter M em bers.

D u rin g the school year 1913-14 and particularly during the second semester, the con viction grad­ ually grounded itself in the minds o f som e o f the C ollege men and w om en that there w as a need of tw o additional literary societies in Y o rk College.

T h e con viction grew and resulted in the organ iz­ ation o f the Zeta societies early in the sch ool year 19' 4- 15. . .

T h e Societies started with a small M em bership whjich was gradually added to, until now we have the largest m em berships o f any society in the school.

T h e aim o f the organization o f the society was

the prom otion o f literary pursuits am ong the stu­ dents, and this aim has continued to be the chief and perm anent one. H ow e v e r in its literary p ro ­ ceedings the social elem ent is not forgotten and m any hours o f keen en joym ent are spent socially.

T h e Zeta b oys are pepping up to the high pitch as is show n b y tw o events, nam ely w eek ly m eet­ ings and the Zeta M instrel. T h e form er event came as the logical result o f the g o o d m eetings w e had been having and show s that Y o rk C ollege w ill be 0 1 1 the M ap hereafter in Dpbate and O ratory. A ll Zetas are enthusiastic and w e have the prom ise of m any interesting m eetings in the future.

NEGATIVE DEBATING TEAM

D E B A T IN G

In recent years w e have not been exceedingly active in m aintaining intercollegiate debates. This prevailing con dition has not been for lack o f good team material, for o f that w e have an abundance; but m ore to a prevailing indifference to the im port足 ance o f this kind o f w ork, and the lack o f an effi足 cient organization. T h e past year, h ow ever has

show n som e marked advancem ent. A new constitu足 tion has been put in force and provision made for suitable coaching.

T w o debates w ere held this year both b ein g with H astings College. T h e schedule for next year calls fo r m ore aggressive action and a series o f debates with other N ebraska Colleges.

On M arch 1st a team from H astings C ollege came to Y o rk and met one of our teams made up of M iss M erle Snyder, Mr. Geo. W eb er, M r. L ee Fletcher and M iss Lenore M illigan as alternate.

O ur team defended the negative o f the q u e s tio n : “ R esolved that, Im m igration to the U nited States should be further restricted b y a literacy test.” . T h e Judges cast their decision in favor of the negative.

T h e same evening our team consisting o f Miss

M ary Cave, Mr. Merl H arner, Mr. F lo y d W o o le y , and Mr. L aw rence C offey as alternate, w ent to H astings C ollege and debated the affiim ative of the same question losin g the decision to the H ast­ ings team.

Th e efforts o f these people have been h igh ly ap­ preciated and the fact that nearly all o f them will remain in sch ool next year foretells future success­ es in debate for Y o rk C ollege.

Mr. L. R. G regory, the w inner of the local oratorical contest, represented Y o rk C ollege in the annual contest held by the N e ­ braska Intercollegiate O ratorical A ssociation. T h e contest was held at C oin er U niversity, Bethany, Nebraska. Seven colleges and universities of the state were represented.

T h e su bject of Mr. G regory’ s oration was “ T h e Crim inality o f N ations.” It was a pow erful theme treated in a m asterful manner. F or depth o f thought, beauty o f language, and vigor of expre'ssion it was unexcelled b y any other oration given.

Mi\ G regory is a pleasing orator, strong, forceful, earnest in delivery, possessing a m agnetic personality and a charm of man­ ner w hich enables him to hold the closest attention of his au­ dience.

Mr. G regory was given third place b y the judges. H ow ever, (he grades given the first, second, and third speakers w ere so close as to place them practically upon the same plane.

Mr. G regory is a Senior in the C ollege of Liberal Arts. B y his graduation, Y o rk C ollege loses not only a splendid orator but one of the best students w ho ever entered her halls.

As the students th ron g about him an ob­ server m ight think that he had done som e heroic deed and that everyone was crow d in g around to shake his hand.

It is the college paper w hich has aroused all this interest.

There has been som e demand for a w eekly this year but it has been definitely decided to take the m atter up at the opening of sch ool next Septem ber. It will mean added w ork for the staff and students but Y o rk is b ig enough to support a w eek ly paper.

Captain P ercy Burke has been a m em ber of the Y ork C ollege team for the past four years. D u rin g this time he has served as Captain for tw o sea­ sons in 1913 and 1917. P ercy is noted for his cleanness as a player and is considered one o f the fastest and head­ iest forw ards in the state. H e can well be recom m ended for his g o o d general­ ship o f the best team Y ork C ollege has produced, 1917.

Jake Glur captain-elect is one of the finest types o f men that President W il­ son ever met and w e as a sch ool co n ­ sider ourselves lucky to have such a man as Jake for Captain o f our 1918 basket ball team. Jake played guard on the team and it was his second year.

A rou n d the state Jake is considered as the best defensive player in the college conference. O u r sch ool heartily c o ­ operates and wishes him a g ood season in 1918.

G IR L S’ B A S K E T B A L L T his year’ s basket ball season has been one of the m ost successful ever experienced b y the G irls’ basket ball team o f this Y o rk C ollege. T h e team this year was com posed m ostly of new players, but players w h o have had previous experience in H igh School basket ball. Five inter-collegiate games and one high school gam e w ere played.

T he first gam e o f the season played at Central C ity was a disappointm ent to the loyal follow ers of the Y ork team. It was recognized b y the Y o rk girls that this gam e w ou ld be a hard one, but they had been coached to w in in the contest and had';expected to do so. T h e gam e was a lively one, and w ell played but ow in g to the fact that the floor w as small aiid the “ Quaker G irls” do not play accord in g to regular rules, our girls w ere com pelled to forfeit the game with a score o f 20 to 5.

T h e next gam e was played w ith Grand Island on the latter’ s floor. From the beginning o f the con ­ test to the- finish, there w as no. question as to the final outcom e. T h e gam e was clean and reason­ ably fast w ith real team w ork on both sides, but the final count gave Y ork the decision b y a total of 17-8 points.

T h e next gam e was played on the hom e floor. T h e Grand Island team came to Y ork with the intention o f securing the gam e b y a large score. T h e visitors w ere a prom isin g bunch but failed to display the class o f basket ball necessary to defeat Y ork er girls.

Both teams played a brand o f ball seldom excelled.

W hen the final w histle blew the score stood 26-10 in favor o f Y ork .

T h e C otner gam e was the m ost spectacular game

of girls’ basket ball played on the local flo o r this season. T h e floor w ork o f both teams w as ex­ ceptionally fast and the goal sh ootin g w as re­ m arkably accurate. T h e Cotner girls seldom missed a chance at foul goals, but due to the gu ardin g dis­ played b y the Y o rk girls they received- but few open- chances at the basket. T h e score was 18-14 in favor of Y ork .

T h e last gam e o f the season was played on the C otner floor with a defeat to the Y o rk girls o f 14-16.

T h e concensus o f opinion b y people w h o have had w orld -w id e experience in traveling, is that the R o ck y M ountains constitute the greatest and m ost gorgeou s scenery o f the w orld. T h ose w h o have re peatedly spent weeks or months o f recreation fish­ ing, hunting, or resting at any one o f a m ultitude o f ideal cam ping spots, feel an irresistible desire to return to the charm ing and aw e-inspiring heights, recesses and w ater-falls o f the m ountains every sum ­ m er season. A trip to the R ock ies is an education w ithin itself.

D u rin g the past ten years, the president o f the college has taken a num ber o f ou ting parties to the mountains and all w ho have m ade the trip have pronounced it the m ost profitable vacation and the m ost en joyable time of their lives. L ast year a part o f the m em bers of the football team, w ith the coach and several friends, en joyed an ou ting of tw o w eeks at Palm er Lake. This year plans are n ow w ell under w a y to run a special Nebraska train from Y o rk to Salt Lake City, returning via Grand Junction, M on trose and the Gunnison Canyon. A d ­ equate cam ping facilities w ill be provided at M ile P ost 303 on the Gunnison R iver, just at the east entrance to the Black Canyon. T h e expense o f this entire trip, including railroad fare, pullman, meals

on the train, tw o day’s accom m odations at Salt Lake and one full w eek in camp w ill be $74.50. Passenger agents o f railroads w ill accom pany the party and take care o f all of the details o f the trip so that those taking the outing w ill have no responsibility w hatever to assume and no traveling arrangem ents to w orry about.

M em bers o f the faculty and student-body, as well as people o f Y o rk and the state at large, are cordial­ ly invited to take advantage o f this great outing opportunity. Scenic folders and full inform ation w ill be mailed to any one on request. A ll applications should be made to M. O. M cL au gh lin , president of Y o rk C ollege, Y ork , Nebr.

T h e trip as planned w ill cov er the m ost scenic portion o f the R o ck y M ountains and tw o days at Salt Lake w ill give all m em bers o f the party an o p ­ portunity for a plunge in the lake. A rrangem ents have been made for a special organ recital in the M orm on T em ple. O n the return trip those w h o de­ sire to visit in the vicin ity o f C olorado Springs or M anitou or D enver, or any other resorts w ill have the op portu n ity to do so. . A ll in all, this trip prom ­ ises to be the greatest and m ost econ om ical excur­ sion trip ever taken b y Nebraskans, and it is hoped that m any readers of this annual w ill avail them ­ selves o f a life tim e opportunity.

T H E C O L O R A D O T R IP .

On Saturday, A u gu st nine­ teenth, at 1 :20 p. m., the Y o rk college football team left Y o rk for a sum m er ou ting at Palm er Lake, C olorado. T h e men w h o made the trip w e r e : Captain Glur, M yers, R eyn old s, Larson, Smith, Priebe, Jahn, Conway, Shellmadine, W h ite , Y ou n g , M cPhail, K ossitsky, H arden and Burke, President M c­ Laughlin, Coach H aw kins, Dr. Jones, V icto r Lundgren, Bert K ilpatrick and Jim m ie Hanna accom panied the team w hile Ira Scarborough officiated in the capacity of cook. W e boarded our special car at H astings at 9:00 p. m. and arrived in D en ­ ver earl}' Sunday m orning.

A fter a short stop w e pro­ ceeded on our jou rn ey and reached our destination, Palm er Lake, at 11 :30 a. m.

It is a pretty little tow n sit­ uated at the foot of the m oun­ tains. T h e lake is clear as a crystal and is very deep and cold. It is on a great divide, the water in one end of the lake flow in g south, w hile at the other end it flow s to the east.

T w o miles east o f Palm er Lake is Elephant R ock . From a distance this rock bears the appearance of an elephant, hence the name. It is a huge rock with perpendicular sides rising to a height of one hun­ dred and fifty feet. F rom the O N E H U N D R E D S E V E N T Y -E IG H T

top o f this rock one can see for a great distance on all sides and on a clear day the summit of P ike’ s Peak can be seen many miles to the south.

Camp was pitched at the foot o f a mountain covered with pine trees. There w ere three tents, one cook tent and tw o sleeping tents. A sign was found w hich read, “ C on fection ery and L u n ch ,” and this was nailed on the cook tent. O ne o f the sleeping tents was know n as “ Th e M idnight T en t,” w hile the other was called, “ T h e Stag.”

T h e men w ere paired o ff and had three duties to perform w hen their turn came. T h ey were detailed each day either to peel potatoes, carry water or wash dishes.

W e took several hikes back into the mountains and derived m ore en joym ent from these hikes than anything else. T h ere was a b ig reservoir about a mile back from the camp on the governm ent trail.

It was about tw o hundred yards long and w as very cold and deep. T h e dam was made o f concrete and was over fifty feet high, fifty yards lon g and three feet thick. S helly thought it was too narrow to w alk across so he craw led on his hands and knees.

A short distance farther on w as the Ice Cave. This

was form ed b y a num ber o f gigantic boulders fall­ ing into a cannon and cov erin g a creek, thus form ing a cave. It was very cold inside and difficu lt to g o through.

T h e longest hike taken was about fifteen miles.

O n this hike w e w ent far back into the m ountains and saw som e very beautiful scenery and som e in­ teresting rock form ations. W e stopped at an old m ountaineer’s cabin for a lon g tim e and listened to his experiences as a pioneer. N ear his cabin was an old abandoned gold mine. On the w ay back w e were caught in an awful hail and rain storm and th oro­ ughly drenched. O ur camp was flood ed and all our clothes soaked. W e w ere com pelled to spend that night in the hotel while our things w ere dryin g out.

W e broke camp a w eek earlier than w e original­ ly intetnded on account o f the threatened railway strike. A day was spent in C olorado Springs and two in D enver seeing the sights. W e reached Y ork on Sunday evening after an ou ting o f tw o weeks.

E verybod y join s in the assertion that w e had a “ real” time and that President M cL au gh lin is a grand, g o o d fellow .

ONE HUNDRED SEVENTY-NINE

T H E C O M IN G SE A SO N .

T h e athletic achievem ents of the past year have been so de­ cidedly com plim entary to' the teams, and so highly satisfactory to the college, that there is a tendency alm ost to forget the necessity of preparation for the com in g season. . ; W e have so often heard, how ever, that the g o o d is the w orst enem y o f the best, that w e must not rest on this year’s record, but m ust lay such plans for the future, as w ill insure even greater victories than have heretofore been achieved.

T h e school has had a distinct loss in the resignation of Coach H aw kins, w h o has made such a brilliant,record in building up a re­ m arkably stron g athletic spirit, and developing football and basketball teams equal in strength and character to any in the rtate; but w e are glad to announce that the college has em ployed Mr. J. L. C aley o f N ebraska U niversity to fill the vacancy. Mr. Caley is an all-round athlete, and has had three years of experience as quarter on the H usker team. H e possesses a character above re­ proach, and com es to Y o rk unanim ously recom m ended b y U niver­ sity men as w ell as b y the loyal laym en w h o have been follow in g the gam e in N ebraska during recent years.

Considering the fact that nearly all the men w h o w on state honors last year w ill be w ith us next year, and that there will be a g o o d ly n u m b er,of. men in from the high schools.-to.try out. for p osi­ tions, and that this splendid array o f men will be under the direc­ tion o f Mr. Caley, there is every reason to believe that Y o rk will win the state cham pionship in both football and basketball the com in g season.
