BASKET BALL CHATTER

Kenyon this year has the most suc-

cessful basketball team since the 1915

championship aggregation. With five

letter men back Kenyon was expected

to have a team that would end well upin the Ohio Conference but it was notexpected that one point would keep

the Purple from becoming Champions.Yet such is probably the case. Aftersweeping victoriously through seven

conference games, a 25-2- 4 defeat atthe hands of Mount Union has no

doubt marred what would otherwise

have been an undefeated season for

the smallest college in the conference.In nine starts the Purple has won eight

games and scored 303 points to the op-

ponents 199.

Until the defeat at the hands ofMount Union Kenyon topped the con-

ference standing column, though bothOberlin and Mount Union were unde-

feated. By this one defeat the Hill

College dropped to the fourth place,as shown above. There is still a good

chance for Kenyon to come out secondplace as the remainder of games sche-

duled should be victories. The op-

ponents yet to be met are:Wittenberg at Springfield.

Ohio University at Athens.

Ohio University at Gambier.Muskingum at New Concord.Otterbein at Westerville.

Hiram at Gambier.

The dope shows Wittenberg to bethe strongest adversary of these, butcritics who have seen them in actionay that Kenyon has nothing to fear

KENYON-BALDWI- N WALLACE

The Kenyon basketball team nosed

out Baldwin-Wallac- e, lone of the

strongest teams in the conference last

year, in a fast game at Berea Jan.1 6th. Kenyon led from the outset, theBereans being unable to overcome the

early lead of the invaders. The score

was 9-- 8 at the half and the game

ended 22-1- 8 in favor of the Purple.

KENYON-RESERV- E

After a bad start Kenyon came

around and defeated Western Reserve34-2- 5 in a clever exhibition of basket-

ball at Cleveland Jan. 1 7th. Reserve

started the scoring and led 5-- 2 beforethe Purple opened up. In the nextfew minutes Kenyon made twelve

points before Reserve scored, four

field goals by Stansfield leading therally. The half ended 16-1- 2 in favor

of Kenyon but renewed spirit on thepart of the Red and White enabledthem to pass the lead of the Kenyon

quintet soon after the second halfstarted. The Purple then settled down

and Van Epps proceded to run up his

lead in the Ohio Conference scoring.

The Pioneers seemed unable to stop

the spurt of their old rivals and the

timekeeper's gun was all that savedthem from suffering a worse defeat.

KENYON-OTTERBEI- N

With Clayton Van Epps, Kenyon'sstalwart center, scoring 27 points thePurple easily defeated Otterbein 54-3- 1,

in a one sided contest at Rosse Hall

January 24th. Otterbein's points were

mostly made by long shots while Ken-

yon made shots from any angle or

point on the floor. The half ended

SOPHOMORES PLANFOR MAY HOP

Hope To Bring Kenyon Dance To

Former Plane

With the advent of spring, the Soph-

omore class turns its attention to the

first big undertaking since its entrance

to Kenyon in 1923 the Spring Hop

on May eighth and ninth. In order

to promote efficiency and cooperation,

one representative, instead of the usual

two, has been chosen from each divis-

ion. The men responsible for the suc-

cess of the Hop are the following:

Robert N. D. Arndt (Chairman), Geo.

Dougherty, Howard Rusk, Peter

Raleigh, Charles Brocklebark, ThomasCragg, Joseph Harter, William Myll,

Charles Morfit.

This committee has already begunpreparations for what they hope willbe a dance worthy of those famous

parties held before the present slumpbegan. Many well known orchestrashave bid for the contract, and negotia-tions for the decoration of Rosse Hall

are being carried on. The commit-tee is bending every effort towardthe furthering of its plans. Ticketsare being printed, for the sale of which,the committeemen of each divisionwill be responsible. This will give

men the opportunity to gain admis-

sion to the dance when they feel they

can best afford it, and will serve as atoken of something for which to lookforward. We hope that the revivalof this system will work out, and thatthe men will obtain their tickets assoon as possible.

Every student in Kenyon has, tohis dismay, noted the waning interestin the main social functions of the yearand the accompanying feebleness ofthe dances. It is the main object ofthe committee to bring the caliber ofthe social events back to the old high

standard.The first and only way to do this is

to win back the interest and the con-

fidence of the Kenyon men. Coopera-tion will follow and greater improve-

ment wilf have been achieved. Thisis the committee's goal, and it is tothis end that they are working.

There must first be a revival of in-

terest. This can be aroused by talk-

ing, by advertising, which will stir

every Kenyon man to the realizationthat it is upon him that the success ofthe dance depends that it is not up tohim to take advantage of the awardedholiday and set sail for home, forget- -

FORMER KENYON COACH

NOW AT IDAHO

Robert Lee Mathews, former Ken-

yon football coach, has recently an-

nounced his decision to remain in his

present position as head coach at the

University of Idaho. Two large east-

ern universities have tendered alluring

offers to the popular mentor who pre

fers the smaller college for his work.

In his career at theUniversity of Idaho,

Coach Mathews has captured two

Northwestern Conference champion

ships.

Mt. Mathews has achieved a reputa-

tion in the west as a producer of color-

ful teams. He came to Kenyon from

Notre Dame, where he was the team-

mate of Knute Rockne, and developed

here several of the most famous teams

in the history of Ohio athletics. He is

responsible in a large degree for the

unique reputation Kenyon still retains.Men who played during his regime,

and his myriad! friends among theAlumni, are gratified by his deserved

success.

INFORMAL DANCES

VERY POPULAR

The Senior class has given two in-

formal dances since Christmas, bothof which have conclusively proved thefact that informal dances, held duringthe school year, are enthusiasticallyapproved by the undergraduates of

Kenyon. Jumping Jack Bemis andhis Snycopators furnished the inspira-

tion for both affairs, the first of which

was held at the Psi U. house and the

the second at the gym after the Miami

game. It is understood that these part-

ies will continue after the Lenten sea-

son and we firmly believe that theclass sponsering them will make nomistake. The girls of Harcourt at-

tended both the dances, the latter en-mas- se,

and the committee wishes to

thank Miss Merwin for her cooperation.The class is also deeply grateful to

Professor and Mrs. Lord, Miss Lasher,and Miss Summers who were kind

enough to act as chaperones.

George R. Butler, '70, died in San-

dusky, Ohio, Jan. 28, where he hasresided for many years. He had beenconfined to a hospital for several

months and in failing health for many

years.Mr. Butler served as drummer boy

in Company B, 145th regiment 0. V. I.

in the Civil War. Surviving him areone son and two daughters.

A. A. B. W. FOOTBALLCAPTAIN CHOSEN

At the annual football banquet ofthe A. A. B. W. (American Associationof Bench Warmers) Hiram Hitchcock

COLLEGIAN

was elected captain of the Kenyon

team. It is rumored that he was se-

lected, from among many contestantsfor the honor, because of the fact

that he was the only candidate to sus-

tain serious injury during the season.

Followers of the team will recall that

on the 18th of October, Hitchcock, at

a tense moment during the game with

Capital, fell from his perch to the hardground, thereby badly bruising his

back. However, his election was war-

ranted even if the rumor is not sub-

stantiated, for Hiram has made a con-

scientious effort to succeed and he

certainly deserves the distinctionawarded him.

The outcome of the election of bask-

etball captain by the A. A. B. W. is

being awaited with interest by all sport

followers. Robert Harris, a former

star who is now in no condition for ac-

tive service, has been practically con-

ceded the election, but either Gregg

or Lyman might upset the dope.

Mr .Hitchcock is a native of Wash-

ington, C. H.

KENYON COMPLIMENTSCOLLEGE ALUMNI

The following letter, received from

Lord Kenyon by Mr. Babst of the Ken-yo- n

Alumni Association of the East,

shows well the impression made uponhim by the college last June. It should

be highly gratifying to the studentbody to know the place that the col-

lege occupies in the memoirs of LordKenyon.

Piccadilly. W. L.

The Albany,Dear Mr. Babst:

I hear that the Annual Meeting anddinner of the Kenyon Alumni Associa-

tion of the East takes place on the 1 5th

of January. I cannot let the occasion

pass without sending a line of cordialgreeting to the many friends who will

be gathered there, from whom I re-

ceived such a warm welcome last June.I learnt much during my short visit

and one thing in particular and thatis the strong affection that exists

among the Alumni of Kenyon for theirAlma Mater. I hope in some degreeto be able to further a like spirit in

the University of Wales by the crea-

tion or support of Old Students Asso-

ciations. I see the immense value toKenyon College of its Alumni Associa-

tions.

I should be grateful if you would ex-

press on my behalf and on my cousin'sthe very sincere wishes for the welfareof Kenyon and our warmest thanks forthe hospitality so lavishly bestowed onus. The memories are still vivid andwe only hope we may be able at sometime to reciprocate them on this sideof the Atlantic. With every good wishfor the New Year and a hope for pros-

perity for all, Believe me. Yours verysincerely,

(Signed) KENYON.

FEBRUARY 19, 1925

An exceedingly irate individual com-

piled and presented to the editor of the

Collegian several pages of diatribe. It

is significant to note that almost the

only stuff handed to the editor unso-

licited is of much the same tenor as

this of which we speak. It reflects the

unhealthy climate of opinion extant on

the "Hill" and serves as an admirableindex of student contemplation. We

propose to print such articles, after

some expurgation perhaps, to bring the

smouldering fires of discontent into

the light. The differences caused by

the more or less natural hostility on the

part of the students toward the fac-

ulty, and the perhaps imagined hostil-

ity on the part of the faculty towardthe students, should be ameliorated as

soon as any disquietude is recognizedand understood, since both groups arecomposed of intelligent beings. Con-

cord is our aim.

It is our observation that most of the

"compliments" lodged by students areinsignificant and foolish. Unflatteringremarks could be justly applied to some

faculty action as well. Yet there is

little question but what most student"belly-achin- g" could be aleviated by a

more thorough mental mastication.Care should be taken in what we say

lest later contemplation of our coeval

thoughts should fill us with chagrin.We picture, for example, the prominentleader of the "Denison Revolt" asfeeling now more like a man caughtstealing candy from a baby than a

perhaps less Conspicuous wearer of a

croix du guerre.These remarks are general and in

no way apply to the article to which weallude above and which we quote be-

low. This writer has presented twowell-take- n points. Omitting his in-

troduction, we quote:

THE KEN YON COLLEGIAN

"It occurs to us to mention herethat, in the opinion of many who maybe assumed to know of what theyspeak, the dances will continue to befinancial fiascos until certain changesare made in the way matters are con-

ducted. For example, it was only rare-ly that dances attracted a mere hand-

ful prior to the Institution of the so-call- ed

"invitation" system. Besidesbeing an infernal nuisance, it appar-ently combats a highly' Imaginativedisturbance, and it is not speakingemptily to say that it has antagonizedthe greater part of the student body.A dance, in the popular conception,has ever been accounted to be a timeof pleasure, freedom, and escape fromthe narow prejudices of our Puritanancestors. Not so any more, at leastat Kenyon, it seems. A host of regu-

lations are in force; even the care-

less overlooking of one of them spellsdisaster as soon as the wheels of jus-

tice (?) can be thrown in motion. Oneis too busy wondering whether this orthat is right and proper to put on evena semblance of gaiety, not to mentionthe abandon that is necessary to makeanything of that nature a success.Mark you, we do not advocate a liber-

tine or bacchanalian attitude! Neither,however, do we lend support to the'San Quentinian' discipline now in op-

eration. If a highly esteemed frienddrops in unexpectedly during the prog-

ress of the dance possibly with theintent to surprise, and arrived at, asis often the case, at the eleventh hour

and, upon learning that his unad-vised host is at the hall, goes thereto see him and cannot produce the or-

nate invitation card demanded, whathappens? He is unceremoniouslyejected, or, in the event that he insome manner slips by the door-ma- n

and is later detected by one of thelocal sleuths, he is flagrantly and un-

justly Insulted for having the temer-ity to appear uninvited at a collegedance, even though such is commonpractice at practically every other in-

stitution of higher learning in thisbroad commonwealth.

Let us take up another aspect ofthe affair. The hall, of late, has beenveritably beleaguered by a small armyof yokels sworn in, we are told, beforethe Town-marshal- l, and hired, we arealso told, by the administration. Thisnot only applies to the outside of thehall; they are generously sprinkledaround In all sections of the hall.They pay no attention whatever toanyone but the college boys and theirguests; suspicious characters who areobviously no part of the function re-

ceive no notice from them at all. Onecannot even descend to the lavatoryin the basement of the ball without be-

ing subjected to an insulting surveil-lance until the sleuth trails one backto the dance floor. If we are such un-

mitigated blackguards as all this im-plies, why not expel us all right nowand have done with it! Is one alwaysgoing to have to clear a lane throughthe detectives in order to pass his girlinto the hall? If so, the idea of giv-ing dances ought rightfully to be givenup, and the social side of life at Ken-yon completely ignored.

There should never be need of sucha thing at Kenyon. We are accountedgentlemen in the catalogue evenboasted as such in some places is ittoo much to ask that we be treated asif we fulfilled the sounding phrases ofthat pamphlet? Otherwise, numberedjackets and balls and chains should beissued to all who live up at all to Am-

erican college tradition by being youngand, possibly, innocently hair-brained- ."

The invitation system was inaugura-

ted in good faith and for a good pur-

pose. The aim was to make Kenyon

dances a bit more exclusive and con-

servative. It was expected that the

undergraduates would point to it withpride as it differentiates Kenyon dan

ces from similar affairs at all otherOhio Colleges and puts them on the

higher level of a club dance. It was,

however, an experiment. Student re-

action was contrary to what was ex-

pected and it is looked upon as a co-

ercive measure employed by a lugubri-

ously enraged faculty. Instead of be-

ing a source of pride, the undergradu- -

in New Orleans, according to a writerin Collier's Weekly, were put through

an intelligence test and came off bad-

ly. Thereupon they challenged the

faculty to a similar test, which provedto be a sweet revenge. Some of the

answers from a group of twenty threeprofessors were:

Al Jolson is a wrestling champion.Filet mignon is an opera by Puccini.Brilliantine is a preparation that la-

dies put into their eyes to make themshine.

Grover Cleveland Bergdoll was aWorld War hero.

Maraschino was prime minister ofRussia before the War. The Ameri-can Campus.

The I. Q. registered by Kenyon stu-

dents in their intelligence test of

months ago, is a dark, seemingly im-

penetrable, mystery. There is a faint,yet unsubstantiated, rumor about thecampus that they are being slowly butsurely graded. What the faculty would

do under such a test is mercilessly leftto undergraduate conjecture.

Striking example of perfect behav-ior set by the e-me- rged tenth, repre-

sented by students in English Univer-sities:

"The grand old men of the Univer-sity, the class fellows and heads ofColleges who lived through the suf-fragette days when enthusiastic wo-men poured acid on college lawns andcorn syrup into college letter boxes,still look upon women students withmistrust and suspicion.

"While there is not among Oxfordundergraduates that feeling of re-sentment against women studentswhich leads Cambridge men to smashthe gates of Women's Colleges and toBtamp and groan when a woman en-ters a lecture room yet their regardfor the newcomer is far from kindly."

still left in the Conference. Kenyon

started the scoring with a basket by

Bud Evans and from then on the scoresee-saw- ed back and forth with Ken-

row margin of 15-1- 4. The second

half had just started when a long shot

by Corey scored two more points for

the Purple. Coach Detrick's men tied

the count and a spectacular shot from

the corner of the floor by Van Epps

put Kenyon back in the lead, andthen last year's conference championssettled down and fought for all they

of the game, scoring nine field goals

while the opponents connected for onlyeight. The game was won on fouls,

Mount Union caging nine out oftwenty-on- e while Kenyon only

made six out of a possible fifteen.Van Epps led the scoring for the Epis-

LINEMEN POOR

By Dr. Lacy LockertAn inspection of the All-Ameri- ca se-

lection (chosen by the same methodsas those which have appeared in thesepages in other years, and with theusual omission of the Pacific Coastfrom consideration) which accompan-ies this article, will discover a dis-

tinct lowering of standard in certainpositions. There is nearly the normalprofusion of high class backs, an en-

tirely sufficient roster of stellar quart-erbacks, and a richness of material forcentre that has rarely been equaled.But the last year's dearth of ends hasbeen repeated and has extended to thetackle and guard positions theseplaces have plenty of good candidates,but no great ones. A notable featureis the lightness of much of the bestline material; whether this is merelya matter of chance, or is significantof changes in the type of linemanthe modern game is developing, onlytime can show.

To meet the weakness of end ma-terial, Hazel of Rutgers, Camp's selec-tion for fullback, a 220 pound sprint-er, strong at line-plungin- g and inter-ference and defense, a fine placementkicker, and the best punter and secondlongest passer in the country, is shiftedto a flank position, where he per-formed part of the previous year withequal facility. With the rest of theteam as chosen, he could be droppedback at will, thus giving greater va-

riety and flexibility to the offense. Ofthe regular ends, Bjorkman is giventhe preference; for Wakefield, thoughof greater general value to his team,is no strong enough to box a tackle,which is essential in an All-Ameri- ca

end; and Mahaney was not testedagainst as high class opposition asBjorkman, a finished performer atblocking, pass-catchin- g, and defensivePlay.

Three men stood out above the fieldat tackle, Weir, McGinley, and Beat-tie- .

Weir, who is almost the only sur-viving adept at the old swingingtackle-aroun- d play, was the best ofthem. Choice between the other twois difficult, but McGinley was a starall season and Beattie only at the last.All three are good men, but probablynone is the equal of Below or Sund-stro- m,

or within miles of Milstead, thebest tackles of a year ago. After thistrio, any selection must be rather ar-bitrary.

Slaughter seems the best of a notvery notable crop of guards; and thesupply of centres is so bounteous thatLovejoy has been moved from his po-

sition in the middle of the line to behis mate. Both Lovejoy and Garbischare quite too good for either to be leftoff the first eleven; and while Gar-bisch is named for the position theyPlayed because he had a slight mar-gin of superiority, he would really beonly defensive centre, shifting withLovejoy on the offensive so as toutilize his remarkable powers of in-

terference at guard. There would belittle to choose between the centre trioassigned to the third team and a

fourth one composed of Farwick ofWest Point, Goldstein of Florida, andEckstein of Brown. Another goodpivot man was Probst of Alabama.

Stuhldreher for quarter is inevit-able. A cool, daring, yet intelligentfield-genera- l, he was withal a cleverrunner, a perfect passer except for ex-

treme distances, and one of the mostscythe-lik- e interferers in years. YetDooley and Parkin are versatile under-studies. Dooley showed himself agood interferer and runner, a fine andlong passer, a punter, and a marveloustackier; Parkin was a capable tact-ician and a powerful runner. Grangeis of course one of the backs, and sogreat is his individual prowess ball-in-han- d

that the task of choosing theothers is merely a matter of selectingthe best combination to go with him.Especially are good interferers for himwanted. Stuhldreher at quarter sup-plies one of these, and an even moreimportant cog in the great Notre Dameinterference was Layden, the fullback,who is also a splendid punter and line-plung- er

and a wonderful defensiveman. His omission was the one glar-ing mistake in Camp's otherwise ex-

cellent national eleven this year, andno doubt Camp regretted it when thesubsequent game with Leland Stan-ford proved Layden the dealiest managainst forward passes playing to-da- y.

It is close between Crowley and Bak-er for the last position, but the sup-erb team-wor- k of the Notre Damebackfield and the mutual helpfulnessof its members turns the scale forCrowley. He has indeeid attractedmore attention to himself than eitherLayden or Miller, his running mates;but the trio are so nearly equal inmerit that to place Layden and Crow-ley on the first All-Weste- rn and thefirst AU-Americ- an teams and Millernot at all (as Eckersall did), or toplace Crowley on the second All-Ameri- ca

and neither Layden nor Miller atall (as Camp did) is certainly wrong.There could not possibly be the mar-gin of more than one team rightly be-

tween any two of them; Crowley isthe most spectacular runner, but Mil-

ler nearly evens matters with his bril-

liant receiving of forward passes,while the less showy Layden is reallythe most valuable of all and fairlydeserves his place on the first stellareleven. Crowley seems just a trifleunder the standard desirable for a firstAil-Americ- an candidate, yet he is thebest man available for his place. Theplayer potentially capable of worthilycompleting that backfield with Stuhl-

dreher, Grange, and Layden was JohnLevci of the Haskell Indians. Thisgiant Redskin might have been al-

most the peer of Grange himself, buthe was in poor condition early in theseason and only towards the last ap-

proximated his form of the year be-

fore, so he cannot be rated higherthan the second eleven. On the thirdare Tryon of Colgate, whose work suf-

fered from the too-gre- at burden hisweak team placed upon him; andKoppisch of Columbia, who mighthave been put higher but for lack ofthat capacity to rise to crises whichis the test of the true star; and thesterling McBride of Syracuse. A fourthbackfield might be chosen of Jones ofFlorida, Covington of Centre, Brownof Tulane, and Wycoff of Georgia

Tech.; and even then Hubert of Ala-bama and Darling of Boston Collegeremain unplaced.

At a recent meeting of the Sopho-

more class Clayton Van Epps waselected Vice President to fill the va-

cancy left by Harrison Greer, who be-

came President when Jack Miller wasforced to leave school on account ofillness.

INTRADURALSPORTS BEGIN

All Kenyon College intra-mur- al ath-

letics have been placed in the hands

of a committee consisting of a repre-

sentative from each division. This

committee of which Walton, E. Wing,

is chairman, consists of Wade, M.

Leonard; French, S. Hanna; Mulvey,

W. Wing; Greer, N. Leonard; Dickson,

S. Leonard; Peters, N. Hanna; andFullwood, M. Kenyon. At the first

meeting, held in Athletic Director Wip-

er's office February 17th, it was de-

cided that the intra-mur- al sports would

be Basketball, Volley ball. Baseball,

Indoor Baseball; Track, and Horseshoe

Pitching. The division winning eachsport is to be given a small cup and

a certain number of points, and theone having the most points at the endof the year will be awarded the Intra-

mural Cup.

For basketball which will begin nextweek, the divisions have been divided

into two groups with East Wing, West

Wing, South Leonard, and SouthHanna in one, and North Leonard,North Hanna, Middle Leonard andmiddle Kenyon in the other. After the

scheduled games have been played,the winners of each group will com-

pete for the championship. The intra-

mural basketball games have always

afforded much pleasure for both par-

ticipants and spectators and should bewell supported this yean

Dr. Oakley spoke at some lengthcriticizing the doctrines of Dr. Freudand his Viennese associates. He cov-

ered the new fields of neurology andpsycho-analys- is in a comprehensive

manner. The subject of venereal dis-

eases and their effect on thought and

morality was lightly touched by the

speaker.The members of the Science Club

department held an informal discus

sion with Dr. Oakley after the lecturein the parlor of South Hanna.

ting that he is the cause of Kenyon's

social downfall.After interest, the main facter, has

been aroused, cooperation, both ab-

stract and concrete, must follow. It is

not the committee or the Sophomore

Class alone that wishes for success. It

is every man in college. By abstractsupport we mean the construction of

the supporting atmosphere that is such

a great incentive to the attainment of

an object. Concrete cooperation is

more or less important, and will best

be shown by a timely purchase of theHop tickets.

This article is not only an appeal to

the students, but a definite statementof the desire of the committee to re-

construct once more the feebleness of

Kenyon's social functions.

BASKET BALL CHATTER

on Feb. 20. The calibre of basketballplayed by the others should cause nofear in the hearts of the Purple, thoughit must be remembered that the brandof basketball of this entire season is of

exceptional quality. But whatever thefuture brings out, the success of the

Kenyon cagers up to this date haswon for them unlimited encomium.

The conference title will doubtless goto the winner of the contest between

Mount Union and Oberlin, as there Is

small chance that either should be de-

feated by a lesser team.

MOT

Credit for the success of the season

to date should be rather evenly dis-

tributed among the players. However,

the work of Coach Love deserves special mention. "Lovie" was a member

of that championship team of 1915

and has given his men the kind oftraining that has brought them out.

Clayton Van Epps of Bellevue, Ken

yon's stellar center, has done much to

put the team where it is today. Hehas led the conference scoring for all

but about two weeks and at present is

tied for first honors with Wright of

Ohio University with a total of 120

'JpillllfftllllttHlllllllflllflfllllfttfllglllllfHllltlllllll

a doubt one of the best centers in Ohio

at the present time and stands a good
