 Letter of the President of the University to 
 The Board of Regents. 
 
 To the Regents of Georgetown University. 
 
 Gentlemen: It gives us great pleasure to present the 
 Triennial Report of the Extra-Curriculum Activities of 
 Georgetown University. We have requested the heads 
 of the several departments to submit to us a full and 
 detailed report of the more noteworthy activities from 
 September 1919 to June 1922. We have read these 
 reports with care and interest; we feel moreover that 
 we have every reason to assume that our Alumni will 
 welcome these pages wherein they can find an authentic 
 statement of what has been accomplished during 
 the three important years just elapsed, Our Colleges 
 were put to great test during the World War and the 
 period of reconstruction has been not a little fraught 
 with anxiety. The successes of those who have gone 
 before have increased our confidence in the training 
 given in our invenerable Institution and also in those 
 traditional activities which have always been cherished 
 at Georgetown. The friends of the University will no 
 doubt find this report acceptable; they will, we trust:, be 
 all the more willing to show their interest in our several 
 undertakings. The faculty will be encouraged by the 
 appreciation expressed and the students will be urged 
 to exert themselves with all the more zest when they 
 see their efforts receive the recognition of those in 
 charge. 
 
 The value of Extra-Curriculum Activities should be 
 evident to all. Their encroachment upon the time of 
 the strictly curriculum pursuits has been allowed in 
 some institutions and the more conservative educators 
 are quite right in fearing lest these activities become so 
 
8 GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY 
 
 much a matter of course that the time honored studies 
 be all but forgotten and made at best matters of mere 
 routine. It is true too that some schools are better 
 known through their activities on the athletic field than 
 through their scholarship and scholastic triumphs. 
 While this is highly regrettable, it would be altogether 
 unreasonable to set aside all extra-curriculum activities 
 because of the abuse of the minority. Fortunately for 
 Georgetown we have at no time heard any complaint 
 from those in charge of studies and we have every 
 reason to feel that we have thus far been able to keep 
 to the golden mean. While we would not suffer the loss 
 of one jot or tittle of the courses of study, we cannot 
 deny that marked advantages are derived from the 
 extra-curriculum activities when these are properly 
 guided and held within bounds. 
 
 In the first place the extra-curriculum activities tend 
 to excite greater enthusiasm among the students and in 
 many cases enable them to put in practice the principles 
 exposed in the classroom. If conducted in a proper 
 way as a means and not as an end in themselves the 
 various societies, the extraordinary lectures, the student 
 publications and even the outdoor sports give a stimulus 
 that cannot be secured elsewhere; they are quite 
 often directly productive of that college spirit which 
 is so highly prized by institutions today. They create 
 an attractive atmosphere while at the same time their 
 cultural influence is felt by all. They bring out latent 
 talent and look to the development of the whole man. 
 Moreover, the various contests give a splendid chance 
 for the students to exhibit their versatility and their 
 adaptibility; they develop an invaluable self-reliance 
 and elicit a consciouness of one's own worth. The great 
 effort of the University is to train leaders; it can be 
 justly claimed that this is served in no slight way by the 
 extra-curriculum activities. Their moral value is not to 
 be passed over lightly. Self-sacrifice and self-restraint 
 are constantly needed and a spirit of co-operation is 
 fostered; good fellowship is spread among a large 
 number and where there is fair play a sense of justice 
 is unconsciously developed. We feel then that we have 
 every reason to be proud of our present record. The 
 
LETTER OF THE PRESIDENT 9 
 
 three years which have just elapsed and which were so 
 important for all schools have been triumphant in many 
 diverse ways at Georgetown. The perusal of the pages 
 that follow will give ample evidence to this. 
 
 We are, therefore, most anxious that our students 
 continue with the same earnestness their extra-curric- 
 ulum activities. There should be no student in our midst 
 who does exercise himself in several fields. For many 
 years our College boasted of two thriving debating 
 societies, but lately so many have sought entrance that 
 there are four such societies and others too will be 
 encouraged if there be any demand. We wish every 
 student of Georgetown to feel that he is welcome and 
 that there is room for all in the several fields that have 
 met with our approbation. We cannot expect that the 
 same laurels will be so abundantly obtained; we desire, 
 however, that our students be none the less eager 
 and that they fight a good fight for victory. Our debating 
 societies must continue to exercise themselves in rival 
 discussions of questions of moment, ever seeking to 
 defend the truth through positive argumentation or the 
 refutation of specious objections. Parliamentary pro- 
 cedure is to be observed and every means employed that 
 will help to make our students adepts in argumentation. 
 We should like to see our lecture service continue with 
 the same splendid success; we trust that it will enjoy 
 a more extensive field of activity. Exercises in dra- 
 matics can be no better than those traditional at George- 
 town. The annual presentation of a play of Shakespeare 
 means much for the entire institution; for not only do 
 the participants profit by the storing away in their 
 minds the rich imagery and wealth of diction of the 
 greatest of poets but our entire student body and our 
 patrons derive benefit from even a student represen- 
 tation of a masterpiece. We should regret to see the 
 intrusion of ephemeral dramas which are mere fads of 
 foolish fashion and which possess naught of value 
 to any one. The lot of the librarian is not an easy one 
 nowadays; less patience is shown every day in the 
 perusal of the classics of our own literature even in 
 the field of fiction. Every stimulus should be given our 
 
10 GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY 
 
 students to encourage the reading of books and periodi- 
 cals worth while. The student publications are not to 
 be degraded into mere mediums for the display of 
 inane pleasantry and unprofitable cant. The College 
 Journal has completed fifty years of dignified service 
 and has ever resisted the temptation to the downward 
 tread of similar publications; the columns of the past 
 are the proud memorials of the training received within 
 these venerable halls. The Law Journal is doing a 
 great work in spreading broadcast treatises of worth 
 by masters of jurisprudence. While of its very nature 
 it cannot become popular, it surely deserves the hearty 
 support of the faculties and the Alumni and the 
 Students of the Law and Foreign Service Schools. We 
 trust that the time is not far off when our newest school 
 may have a publication of its own. The Hoya, our 
 weekly paper, the purveyor of University and Alumni 
 news, has received the highest praise from journalists 
 and educators. We are told that it is unique in its 
 dignity, its appropriate reserve and its attractive time- 
 liness. Many student publications have of late been 
 degraded into repositories of offensive jests; nay, even 
 the happenings recorded often do little credit to their 
 institution. Our weekly paper must realize that its very 
 title to existence rests upon the dignified presentation of 
 Alumni and University news. 
 
 The excellent reputation of those who have competed 
 in inter-collegiate and inter-class outdoor sports must 
 continue. We should regret to see any diminution in 
 the splendid spirit of sportmanship which has charac- 
 terized Georgetown's several teams in the various fields 
 of athletics. Nothing does more to enhance the fair 
 name of a College than good fellowship. Any unmanly 
 act, any display of illwill, any use of unfair means, 
 even though it be on the part of only one, can do much 
 to mar the reputation of an entire team. It were better 
 to suffer an honorable defeat than to carry away a tarn- 
 ished victory. It has been highly gratifying to receive 
 from the various fields of our athletic activity several 
 commendations of Georgetown's good sportmanship. 
 Public recognition of this was given by the faculty of 
 one of the best-known and largest institutions of the 
 
LETTER OF THE PRESIDENT 11 
 
 South; in the monthly assembly of the students and 
 faculty, a professor spoke eloquently of the gentlemanly 
 behaviour of Georgetown's football team and thought 
 well to declare that it was in delightful contrast to some 
 other teams that had appeared there at different seasons. 
 Elsewhere, too, there has been the same favorable com- 
 ment from students of rival institutions and from the 
 presiding officials of the contests. Nor has the repre- 
 sentative press been slow to take notice of this. We 
 trust that all our representatives in all contests, in 
 debates, as well as in athletic events, will bear this in 
 mind that the uncouthness and unfairness of an oppon- 
 ent must be endured and no degredation of our fair 
 name is to be allowed no matter what the provocation. 
 
 It is then, gentlemen, with pleasure that we present 
 this triennial report of our extra-curriculum activities. 
 We trust that as this venerable university is about to 
 start upon the one hundred and thirty-third year of its 
 existence, the same gratifying results may acrue to all.

 To the President of Georgetown University. 
 
 Sir: As Librarian of the University, I have the honor 
 to submit herewith a report of the Riggs Memorial 
 Library and Reading Rooms. 
 
 Whilst our Universities are developing their libraries, 
 Georgetown maintains its notable tradition for numbers 
 and for rare and ancient tomes. The primary care of 
 our Riggs Memorial Library during the last three years 
 has been to satisfy the wants of the professors of the 
 various college courses. For this purpose the academic 
 fisc has been taxed whenever new publications became 
 vital. Hence there were increments in the Social 
 Sciences, in History, in Pedagogy, in Belles-lettres and 
 in Biology. Nor was Theology overlooked to which 
 some current standards were added. 
 
 As there is no endowment fund, it will readily appear 
 that our book hoard is slender in works of general 
 interest: Biographies, Travels and Classics in foreign 
 languages. In some sections we were fortunate in our 
 friends who assumed the patronage. Foremost among 
 these was the Rt. Rev. Mgr. James Joseph Chittick, of 
 Hyde Park, Massachusetts, who fostered our Fine Arts. 
 He was our Mazarin under the sun of whose liberality 
 more than one alcove blossoms forth in beauty. The 
 more's the pity that we did not eventually receive his 
 extensive library promised us and augmented for our 
 benefit through some forty years — all for the lack of a 
 will strangely neglected, leaving his monument a 
 pathetic fragment. The branch of Music was supplied 
 with the latest publications by Miss Honora McDonough, 
 of NeW York. Poet and Scholar whose generosity also 
 extended into ascetical as well as secular fields. A large 
 and liberal gift of modern works on Sociology and 
 various other subjects was contributed by the Rev. 
 Lawrence W. Slattery, I.P.P., of Newton, Massachusetts.

 To Mme. Mathilde, the widow of Doctor Emanuele 
 Fronani of the Italian Embassy, We owe a debt of grati- 
 tude for enriching us with Italian, French and Spanish 
 classics. Among these gifts is the History of Italian 
 Literature in twelve magnificent quarto volumes by the 
 famous Jesuit who figures on the title page as the 
 Cavaliere Abate Girolamo Tiraboschi, the edition being 
 published in Rome during the suppresion of the Society. 
 Miss Agnes G. Barrett, of Baltimore, earned our well- 
 merited thanks for a collection of books possessed by 
 her scholarly father, among them an album with the 
 autographs of the Hierarchy assembled in the Third 
 Plenary Council of Baltimore. Miss Mary Susanna 
 Miller, always a generous donor, provided us with two 
 encylopedias, and many ascetical authors. Other ladies 
 who have contributed clusters of literature, mostly 
 miscellaneous, are Mrs. Lucy McL. Malone, with some 
 seventy volumes, and Miss Rebecca O'Donnell, with 
 sixty-four. Mrs. Denny Ellsworth Dyer Sp angler, to 
 her other benefactions, added twenty-five books. Mrs. 
 Robert McGinnis, ten; and even from the Home of 
 Incurables, Miss Sallie Anderson furnished us with 
 C. A. Sainte-Beuve's History of Port-Royal in seven 
 volumes. Many others have favored us with single 
 books, which were heirlooms in their families and 
 which they deemed useful to the larger family of 
 scholars. As is well known, the Decaturs played a con- 
 spicuous role in Georgetown's last century. Accordingly 
 we were made the recipients of a very minute Genealogy 
 of the Decatur Family, by William Decatur Parsons, of 
 New York City. By a fine harmony, our two earliest 
 incunabula are the gift of Washingtonians : The Code 
 of Justinian, 1477, by Richard T. Merrick, LL.D., and 
 lately the S. Gregorii Moralia in Job. 1460-1470, by 
 Martin Conboy, LL.D., now of New York City. It is now 
 on exhibition as our most ancient cradle volume, being 
 printed in Basle, famous for its presses, from the black 
 letter types of Berthold Roth, who was one of the first 
 servants of John Guttenberg, Another Alumnus, Martin 
 Sullivan, '03, of Florida, filled some of our shelves with 
 some rare miscellaneous literature and periodicals. 
 
THE LIBRARIES AND READING ROOMS 15 
 
 The more than thirty million dollars deposited in 
 Washington bv the late Andrew Carnegie for the diffu- 
 sion of knowledge otherwise not easily obtained, and 
 for the promotion of International Peace are bearing 
 fruit in several cases of publications. In the past three 
 years forty-six of these illuminating volumes have been 
 supplied by the Carnegie Institution of Washington, and 
 by the Endowment for Peace eighty-six volumes and 
 forty-seven pamphlets. The Heye Foundation of the 
 Museum of the American Indian under the editorship 
 of Dr. F. W. Hodge has issued to us nine volumes which 
 besides their archeological value are specimens of 
 elegant, not to say dainty, typography. The Illinois 
 State Historical Society, under the able direction of 
 Mrs. Jesse Palmer Weber, its Secretary-Treasurer, is 
 showing its activities in a series of Journals. So too is 
 the American Irish Historical Society by its several 
 annual volumes. Nor were We forgotten by the League 
 of the Red Cross. For many years the British Royal 
 Society of Arts and the Royal Society of Canada have 
 shared with us the wealth of the erudition of these 
 countries in their Journals which lengthen our rows. 
 Up to the Treaty the Department of Agriculture and 
 Technical Instruction for Ireland kept us informed of 
 the energetic steps taken for the material progress of 
 that country. Italy exhibits to us the fertility of its 
 presses in the monthly Bollettino of its central library 
 in Florence. We had quite a windfall when the German 
 Central Verein distributed its library in St. Louis. 
 Among the several hundred volumes thus obtained, are 
 nuggets for our lynx-eyed workers in literary research. 
 
 Our sister Universities treat us with liberality in pro- 
 viding us With their publications, bulletins and reports. 
 Foremost among these is the University of the State of 
 New York with its educational surveys, its Museum 
 Bulletin often richly illustrated and its Library, which 
 shows up-to-date vitality. The Bulletins of the Univer- 
 sity of Texas rival the size of the State and cover most 
 of the field of learning. In the Dissertations of the can- 
 didates for the Doctor's degree contributed by Bryn 
 Mawr, our American scholars rank with the erudite 
 women who publish their studies in the Viennese series 
 
16 GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY 
 
 of English Philology. The General Library of the Uni- 
 versity of Michigan through its progressive chief, Mr. 
 William Warren Bishop, communicates its share of 
 Ph.D. disserations and other publications. From the 
 University of Pennsylvania came an accession of theses 
 and pamphlets in many branches of science. Latin 
 America is amassing literature in our alcoves with the 
 Anales de la Universidad de Chile, Buenos Aires, La 
 Plata, the Bevista from Havana, and lately the first 
 number of the Boletin de la Universidad Nacional de 
 Mexico, with its Spanish translation of the Antigone 
 from the original Greek. Even during the clash of arms 
 of the revolution, Mexico produced a trophy of peace 
 in the folio Anales del Instituto Geologico. The pro- 
 fessors of the department of Medicine in the Univer- 
 sities of Japan in Tokyo, Kioto, Sendai and Tohoku 
 kept us informed of the latest results of their researches, 
 doing this in the German language even during the 
 World War. 
 
 Our great financial and industrial corporations esti- 
 mating the favorable opinion and good will of our 
 professors in sociology, load our tables with what we 
 might consider apologetic pamphlets to rebut the 
 charges made against them by socialistic publicists. By 
 the carefully issued acknowledgment cards of our 
 Librarian, this mass of information continues to be 
 regularly supplied. The sometimes underrated Govern- 
 ment documents are duly appreciated by our students, 
 and the names of Senator Henry F. Ashurst, who has 
 our Georgetown degree of Doctor of Laws, and Bepre- 
 sentative Sidney E. Mudd, our alumnus, are honored 
 for providing us with these publications. The Congres- 
 sional Becord proves a mine for debates and for the 
 political speeches and state papers inserted by request 
 of our legislators, and so presenting us as they do, our 
 ablest and most eloquent extra-congressional orators 
 and publicists. The Federal Scientific Departments, 
 such as the Smithsonian Institution, the United States 
 National Museum, the Bureau of American Ethnology 
 and of Standards, the Geodetic with its topographic 
 charts, the fertile Agricultural with its never-failing 
 crop of bulletins, the Bureau of the Census broaden the

 horizon of knowledge and whilst they instruct, also 
 awaken the patriotic pride of our readers in the country 
 whose resourses they display. 
 
 On our roll of honor we feel that we must inscribe the 
 names of individual donors. However, not all of our 
 benefactors during the past three years who have 
 earned and herewith are tendered the meed of our 
 fervent gratitude, are here recorded as the boundaries 
 of this report are necessarily limited. They will not 
 take this amiss as we shall be happy to recognize them 
 if desired in a future publication. All, whether in 
 classes and groups or in particular instance, are assured 
 of the perennial thanks of the Faculties and Students 
 who benefit by their gracious and generous subsudies, 
 and this in perpetuum. 
 
 In accordance with the wish of our most eminent 
 alumnus and devoted friend, the late Chief Justice of 
 the United States, Mrs. Edward Douglass White has 
 presented us with Valpy's edition of the Scriptores 
 Latini in usum Delphini, in one hundred and forty-two

 as a strange pendant to which is a Hawking Gauntlet 
 that belonged to Queen Elizabeth of England. Mrs. 
 Robert McGinnis presented us with an exquisite Minia-

 ture in relief of Pius VI, under whom our founder, 
 Archbishop Carroll, was consecreated and Georgetown 
 College erected. There are on exhibition two fine bronze 
 Medallions of Cardinal Gibbons and Mr. and Mrs. 
 Michael Jenkins. Mrs. George Bliss enriched us with a 
 gold Lorgnette of Queen Marie Antoinette and a Purse 
 embroidered by the Empress Josephine. As another 
 sovereign is remembered the Empress Eugenie with a 
 Porcelein Pitcher and Cake Stand from the Tuilleries. 
 Miss Eleanor Sherman Fitch besides presenting us with 
 a capacious folio comprising programmes, newspaper 
 clippings and other papers pertaining to her grand-

 let composed of Buttons, the gifts of the great officers of 
 the Army and Navy. With these is preserved the Silver 
 Bouquet holder carried by her mother at her brilliant 
 marriage at St. Aloysius Church. Other articles are : A 
 Bosary strung from beans of the Kentucky coffee tree 
 found on Massachusetts Avenue from Mr. Fred J. 
 Braendle; a Miniature Cross and Bible from the Charter 
 Oak, the gift of Miss Mary Joe Jenkins; a Memorial of 
 the Bev. Aloysius Bocoffort; Microscopic editions of the 
 Bible, Virgil and Tasso. Three Canes commemorate 
 our Patron and Benefactor, Justice Martin F. Morris. 
 The Lanterns, elegant specimens of East Indian craft 
 in bronze and colored glass from a palace in Benares, 
 are the contribution of Mrs. Bobert McGinnis, of New 
 York. 
 
 Our Professors come and go, but the Teaching Staff 
 of the Library, as it might be styled, remains forever; 
 some of our books from Bohemia Manor dating back 
 four centuries. The more it is recruited as new needs 
 develop in the Arts and Sciences, the higher will be the 
 efficiency and renown of Georgetown. Hence we hope 
 that at the proposed sumptuous Endowment Banquet, it 
 will be an honored and satisfied guest for years. Since 
 the elevation of a Librarian to the Pontifical Throne, 
 our own Librarian swells with professional pride which 
 ought to be supported and encouraged with the liberal 
 purse of our Patrons.

 To the President of the University. 
 
 Sir* As Chief Sesismologist of Georgetown Univer- 
 sity, I beg to submit this brief report of The Seismologi- 
 cal Observatory. 
 
 The Seismological Observatory, founded in 1911, is 
 located in part beneath the quadrangle, in part on obser- 
 vatory hill. A co-operative station is also in operation in 
 Guatemala city, Guatemala, and is in charge of Senor 
 Claudio Urrutia, consulting engineer of the Guatemalan 
 Government. The equipment of these stations consists 
 of an astatic horizontal seismograph after Wiechert, 
 carrying a stationary mass of 200 kilos, a vertical seis- 
 mograph of the same type of 80 kilos, two Bosch-Omori 
 pendulums of 25 kilos mass, two conical pendulums 
 after Dr. Mainka, 130 kilos mass, and a Bosch photo- 
 graphic instrument of 200 grams mass. Five contact 
 clocks complete the equipment. There is now in pro- 
 cess of construction a vertical seismograph after 
 Galitzin, which it is hoped will be installed within the 
 next four months. 
 
 During the past three years the observatory has sent 
 out to about 150 observatories monthly reports of all 
 grams recorded at this station and also of dispatches re- 
 ceived through the several press agencies. There has 
 also been published yearly a bulletin giving the history 
 of the observatory and a detailed account of all seismic 
 activities of the year. 
 
 Several articles have been published by the director 
 which have appeared in the leading seismological 
 journals of the world.

THE LECTURE SERVICE 35 
 
 During the months, December 1921 and January 1922, 
 a series of lectures commemorative of the sixth centen- 
 ary of Dante were given on Monday afternoons, the 
 subject being, "The Divine Comedy." There 
 Monday was an introductory lecture by Mark J. Mc- 
 Lectures Neal, A.B., '93, Litt.D. The Dean of the 
 Graduate School gave four beautifully 
 illustrated lectures, "The Greatest Christian Poem," 
 "The Journey Through the Home of Despair," "The 
 Journey Through the Land of Hope" "The Journey 
 Through the Home of Everlasting Happiness;" the con- 
 cluding lecture was by Dr. Conde Benoist Pallen. 
 Great appreciation of the series was expressed by the 
 Alumni and friends of Georgetown. The attendance 
 was most gratifying. It was suggested that there could 
 be inaugurated "The Georgetown Monday Lectures," 
 to be given in the afternoons and and special invitations 
 be sent to our Alumni and friends in the District. We 
 are pleased to record that from the very start it was 
 seen that the Monday Lectures should become a perma- 
 nent institution of this venerable university. Hence, 
 during Lent the following illustrated lectures were given 
 in Gaston Hall :

 At a meeting of the President and Directors of George- 
 town College held January, 1922, it was decided that 
 among the publications of the University should be 
 
 included the Georgetown University Lee- 
 Georgetown t ure Service. As many of the professors 
 University and assistant professors at the College 
 Lecture and the professional schools have at var- 
 
 Service ious times delivered public lectures at the 
 
 University and elsewhere, and have had 
 every reason to feel that the time spent in preparation 
 and the energy expended in delivery have rendered 
 service to the cause of higher education and have more- 
 over provided entertainment that is pleasing as well as 
 cultural, it has been deemed proper to establish at the 
 University a Lecture Service whereby available lectures 
 of the Faculty and the Alumni may be better known and 
 arrangements for their delivery may be facilitated 
 through a convenient agency. It is the purpose of the 
 University to publish annually a booklet giving sufficient 
 details of lectures whether individual or serial, which 
 are available for the current year. While some of these 
 lectures will be given at the University, arrangements 
 can be made, through the Chairman of the Lecture Serv- 
 ice, for the lectures to be given at other institutions, at 
 meetings of societies, or at occasional gatherings in 
 Washington or elsewhere. The Lecture Service pub- 
 lished January, 1922, embraced over a hundred lectures 
 on the following subjects: Philosophy and Religion, 
 Literature, Science, Biography and History, Education, 
 Sociology and Political Science, Art and Travel. 
 
 A detailed outline of each lecture is given; there is 
 also a Who's Who and an exhaustive general index. 
 
 Respectfully submitted,

®l|p Abating BatuiuB 
 
 To the President of the University. 
 
 Sir : I have the honor to present the triennial report 
 of the activities of the debating societies of Georgetown 
 University. 
 
 During the past three years not only has the long 
 
 standing tradition of enthusiasm for de- 
 The Debating bating been preserved at Georgetown 
 Societies but the field has been enlarged and 
 
 four debating societies are thriving in 
 the Arts and Science Department. The membership of 
 each of these societies is limited and at the close of the 
 scholastic year there was a waiting list of aspirants. 
 Never in the history of the University was greater inter- 
 est shown among the students; they have received great 
 encouragement because of remarkable successes in the 
 inter-collegiate debates. 
 
 The pioneer Debating Society, The Philodemic, found- 
 ed in 1830, has never been in a more flourishing condi- 
 tion and it continues its usual activities in the inter- 
 collegiate field. The Philonomosian Society, which was 
 founded in 1839, had been transferred to 
 Four the Preparatory School in 1910. Upon the 
 
 Debating removel of that school from Washington to 
 Societies Garrett Park, the Philonomosian Society 
 was returned to the College and in Febru- 
 ary, 1921, was completely reorganized. A few necessary 
 changes were made through amendments to the old 
 constitution. It has enjoyed the greatest enthusiasm 
 among the students and gives promise of splendid serv- 
 ice. The purpose of the Edward Douglas White Society, 
 founded 1912, and of the Gaston Debating Society, 
 founded 1913, is to prepare the freshmen and sopho- 
 mores for the senior debating societies. Meetings are 
 held weekly in the Philodemic Hall where chosen mem- 
 
 37 
 
38 GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY 
 
 bers are to appear in a carefully prepared debate. After 
 the close of the regular debate the question is given to 
 the house that all, the members may participate in an 
 ex-tempore debate. A vote is taken to decide the merits 
 of the debaters and a decision is given as to the best 
 speaker of the evening. The faculty representative then 
 points out the virtues and defects of the debaters. An 
 inter-society debate takes place each spring in Gaston 
 Hall to which the public are invited. The Gaston 
 Society thus far has been victorious in all the contests 
 held. The White Society has not in the slightest been 
 daunted by this and each succeeding year finds its mem- 
 bers all the more eager for the first victory over the 
 Gaston. 
 
 In the academic year, 1921-1922, two new features 
 were inaugurated by the Philonomosian Society. The 
 Society adopted the rule of an open forum at the close 
 Pfoilo- °^ eacn debate in which the individual 
 
 members were at liberty to speak on any 
 „ . current vital topic. Ihis plan was success- 
 
 ful and was found to develop more enthu- 
 siasm to debate than the majority-picked topics of the 
 weekly debates. Though the presence of the members 
 was not of obligation during the open forum, over 
 75 per cent, usually remained for the major time of the 
 discussion. 
 
 Toward the close of the school year the Society inaug- 
 urated its Lecture Bureau. The Bureau forms lecture 
 clubs or teams to address societies or gatherings outside 
 of the University on economic and sociologi- 
 Lecture cal topics and political principles. On these 
 Bureau clubs, two or three men divide the ordinary 
 forty-five minute or hour individual address 
 into two or three parts. This innovation was received 
 by the College and its Alumni and Friends with acclaim 
 — one of the most notable acts of approval being a letter 
 from the Most Beverend Michael J. Curley, D.D., Arch- 
 bishop of Baltimore, in which he praised the educational 
 value of the Bureau. 
 
 Due to a late start the Lecture Bureau was able to 
 send out but one lecture team in the first school year. 
 
THE DEBATING SOCIETIES 39 
 
 This team, consisting of Messrs. Frank T. O'Connor, 
 Esmond Murphy and James J. Kirwin, Jr., lectured on 
 the "Living Wage" at the Knights of Columbus Hall in 
 Washington, May 22, under the patronage of the 
 Potomac Council, K. of C, and later on June 6 to the 
 members of Carroll Council, K. of C. 
 
 To insure the success of the Lecture Bureau during 
 the coming year the members of the Philonomosian 
 Society already are laboring on several lecture subjects. 
 Amongst those in preparation are: 
 
 1. A Literary Lecture. 
 
 2. The Constitution. 
 
 3. The Philosophy of the Newspaper and Popular 
 Literature. 
 
 4. Discontent in America. 
 
 Most of these lectures will be ready for public delivery 
 shortly after the opening of the fall semester, 1922. 
 
 The Philodemic Society was organized September 25, 
 1830. It is generally supposed to be the oldest debating 
 society in the United States. The Merrick Debating 
 
 Medal was funded by Richard T. Merrick, 
 The LL.D., 73. The Hamilton Philodemic 
 
 Philodemic Medal is awarded for the best ex tempore 
 Society debate. The medal was founded by 
 
 George E. Hamilton, LL.D., Dean, George- 
 town University Law School. On Sunday evening, Feb- 
 ruary 15, 1920, the annual Merrick debate was held in 
 Gaston Hall. The Merrick Medal was awarded to 
 Robert J. Riley, '20, West Virginia. The question was, 
 Resolved: — That the ammendment to the Immigration 
 Bill, propsed by Senator Phelan for the exclusion of the 
 Japanese, should be adopted. The affirmative, Robert 
 J. Riley and James C. McCann. The negative, 
 Thomas A. Dean and Paul de W. Page. The Ham- 
 ilton ex tempore debate of the Philodemic Society was 
 held in Gaston Hall Sunday, May 9, 1920. The George E. 
 Hamilton Medal was awarded to Robert J. Riley, '20, 
 West Virginia. The question was, Resolved: — That im- 
 igration into the United States should be prohibited for 
 a period of ten years. Affirmative, John S. McCann, 
 Robert W. Wimsatt and Robert J. Riley. The negative,

 The Philodemic Society conducted its annual Merrick 
 Debate on Sunday, December 5, 1920. The Merrick 
 Medal was awarded to Leo J. Casey, '21, Vermont. The 
 question was, Resolved: — That the Philippine Islands 
 should be granted independence within one year. 
 Affirmative, Robert W. Wimsatt and Paul de W. Page. 
 Negative, Leo J. Casey and Meredith Reid. The Ham- 
 ilton Medal was won by Robert E. Ward, '22, Illinois, at 
 the Hamilton Ex Tempore Debate Sunday, April 24, 
 1921. The question was, Resolved: — That the United 
 States should adopt a system of universal military 
 training. Affirmative, Joseph A. McDonough and 
 Robert W. C. Wimsatt. Negative, Robert E. Morgan and 
 Robert E. Ward. On Friday December 16, 1921, in Gas- 
 ton Hall the annual Merrick Debate for the Merrick 
 Medal was held under the auspices of the Philodemic 
 Society. The question was, Resolved: — That all indus- 
 trial disputes should be settled by compulsory arbitra- 
 tion. Robert E. Ward, '22, Illinois, was the winner. 
 The affirmative, John S. McCann and Robert E. Ward. 
 Negative, Sylvan J. Pauly and Joseph A. McGowan, Jr. 
 The final debate of the year was the annual Hamilton 
 Ex Tempore Debate of the Philodemic Society. The 
 question was, Resolved: — That the Present Immigra- 
 tion Law should be re-enacted for a period of five years. 
 Affirmative, John S. McCann, William J. McGuire and 
 Charles R. Lowndes. Negative, J. Rurke Walsh, Sylvan 
 J. Pauly and Joseph A. McGowan, Jr. Sylvan J. Pauley 
 was awarded the George E. Hamilton Medal for the best 
 debate. The debate was held on Sunday, May 14, 1921 in 
 Gaston Hall. 
 
 In the inter-collegiate and inter-university debates 
 during the past three years the Philodemic Society of 
 Georgetown has met one team from Colum- 
 Six Inter- bia, one from Princeton, three from Laf ay- 
 Collegiate ette and two from Yale. In all there were 
 Victories seven inter-collegiate contests and in all, 
 except one debate with Lafayette, George- 
 town was victorious. Columbia University was de-

 feated by Georgetown in the first intercollegiate debate 
 of the academic year, 1919-1920. The debate was con- 
 ducted in Gaston Hall before a large and most appre- 
 ciative audience. The Georgetown debaters upheld the 
 negative side of the question, Resolved: — That the 
 Plumb Plan should be adopted as a solution of the 
 railroad problem. The decision of the judges was unan- 
 imous in favor of Georgetown. On April 23, 1920, the 
 question, Resolved: — That labor through representa- 
 tives of its own choice should share in the management 
 of corporate industry, was debated with Lafayette Col- 
 lege. Georgetown defeated the affirmative and was 
 again victorious. 
 
 On March 3, 1921, Yale University was defeated by 
 Georgetown on the question, Resolved: — That the em- 
 ployers of the United States should abandon the prin- 
 ciple of the open shop. Georgetown sustained the neg- 
 ative side and won a unanimous decision. The very 
 
 same week, March 5, 1921, on the same 
 Victories question, but defending the opposite 
 
 Over Yale side, Princeton University was defeated. 
 
 and Princeton The versatility of our debaters and their 
 
 allround grasp of the momentous ques- 
 tion was commended by all who attended the debates. 
 A most courteous letter of congratulation was received 
 from Yale. 
 
 Lafayette and Georgetown defended both sides of the 
 question, Resolved: — That the use of the injunction 
 should be abolished in labor disputes, on Friday, April 
 8, 1921. Georgetown's affirmative team won by a vote 
 of 4 to 1. The negative team was defeated by a decision 
 of 2 to 1. 
 
 A most interesting debate between Yale and George- 
 town was held in Gaston Hall, Saturday, March 18, 1922. 
 The question was, Resolved: — That the United States 
 in joint action with England, France and Japan, should 
 recognize the Soviet Government of Russia. Affirma- 
 tive, Yale. The decision of the judges was 4 to 1 in 
 favor of the negative side, which was supported by 
 Georgetown. 
 
42 GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY 
 
 Several other Universities were invited to debate 
 Georgetown, but only those mentioned above cared to 
 accept. It is our plan to continue this useful exercise 
 and it is hoped that still more colleges will be willing 
 to compete with our debating societies.

 To the President of the University. 
 
 Sir : I have the honor to present a brief report of the 
 activities of the Dramatic Societies of Georgetown Uni- 
 versity from September, 1919, to June, 1922. 
 
 During the World War the usual dramatic exercises 
 so traditional in this venerable university were almost 
 entirely suspended. At the beginning of the scholastic 
 
 year, 1919-1920, the oldest dramatic 
 The Mask and society of the College was completely 
 Bauble Club reorgainzed. A new name was adopted 
 
 and henceforth the society was to 
 known as "The Mask and Bauble Club." It was felt that 
 this designation would clearly indicate that the society 
 would embrace both tragedy and comedy. An entirely 
 new constitution was written and accepted with the 
 hope that dramatics would thrive with the old time 
 vigor under this reorganization. 
 
 The year 1920 saw an unusual performance in the 
 field of College dramatics. A single section of the 
 Freshman class, under the direction of their able pro- 
 fessor of English Literature, produced the entire play 
 of Twelfth Night in a most creditable manner. 
 Twelfth All the characters were chosen from the class 
 Night and the complete management and financing 
 of the performance was assumed by the mem- 
 bers of the section. The incidental music, which was 
 most attractively suited to the various scenes, was origi- 
 nal and the stage effects and properties were due to 
 the remarkable skill of the students. Highest commen- 
 dation was received from all present and some critics 
 of note pronounced the feat quite unique in the annals 
 of a college. 
 
 On a much larger scale in 1921-1922 the Mask and 
 Bauble Club undertook the production of "Julius 
 
 43 
 
44 GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY 
 
 Caesar." It was discovered that one hundred years 
 before parts of the same play had been rendered by 
 the students of Georgetown in 1821. As the main idea 
 of the Mask and Bauble Club is the develop- 
 Julius ment of dramatic talent in as many as possible 
 Caesar and as it has for its object the performance of 
 plays of highest literary merit, it was felt that 
 there could be no better selection for the annual produc- 
 tion than Shakespeare's great Roman tragedy. Two 
 performances were given in Gonzaga Hall. The cast 
 was chosen from the four College classes and over 
 ninty participated. While those who sustained the prin- 
 cipal parts did remarkably well, it was rather in the 
 extraordinary acting of the Roman mob that the play 
 excelled. As great enthusiasm was stirred by the perfor- 
 mance it is felt that the Mask and Bauble Club is quite 
 assured of success. 
 
 During the month of February at the Foreign Service 
 School two Hindu plays were presented under the 
 auspices of the Society for the Union of the East and the 
 West. The plays were presented in an 
 Hindu English translation under the leadership of 
 Dramas Das Gupta and Robert A. Sparks. The first 
 was a romatic comedy, "The Maharam of 
 Arakam;" the second was a light tragedy, "Santri, or 
 Love Conquers Death." The two styles of Hindu Were 
 much enjoyed by those who had the privilege of attend- 
 ing. 
 
 A new interest has been shown in the study of 
 Shakespeare during the past two years. By the munifi- 
 cent bequest of our late William F. Quicksall, AB. '61, 
 AM. 72, LL.B. 72, there is to be awarded annually a 
 
 hundred dollar gold medal to the stu- 
 The Quicksall dent of the Arts department who passes 
 Shakespeare the best oral examination in three plays 
 Medal of Shakespeare selected by the Dean. 
 
 Up to the present these examinations 
 have been held privately under the exclusive scrutiny 
 of three Shakespearean scholars. It is proposed that an 
 elimination contest take place earlier in the year and 
 that from this examination three contestants be chosen 
 
THE DRAMATIC SOCIETIES 45 
 
 to appear in Gaston Hall for a public specimen. Rep- 
 resentatives of the Washington Shakespeare Society will 
 be iDvited to preside. It is planned to have appropriate 
 songs sung from the plays of Shakespeare between the 
 contests and that while the judges are absent for delib- 
 eration steriopticon views of the dramas be portrayed 
 on the screen. The entire program will give a com- 
 prehensive appreciation of the plays, and afford a 
 pleasant and profitable evening for all.

 To the President of Georgetown University. 
 
 Sir: I have the honor to submit herewith the report 
 on the activities of the musical clubs at Georgetown 
 University during the past three years. 
 
 While a general review of the past is very gratifying 
 in view of the initiative and co-operation thus far dis- 
 played, the hope is entertained that the advance of the 
 next three years will give even greater satisfac- 
 Glee tion, as the field of musical activity is extensive 
 Club and the prospects most encouraging. 
 
 The War, which established the Students' Army 
 Training Corps at Georgetown put an end to many 
 activities, among them the Glee Club. But in Septem- 
 ber, 1919, the Club was completely reorganized. The 
 usual Mi-Careme Concert was advanced to the Tuesday 
 before the Christmas Holidays. On that night, a well- 
 balanced programme was rendered by the Glee Club 
 and the orchestra assisted by two soloists — singers of 
 some repute in the City. The orchestra played upon sev- 
 eral academic occasions during the school year. 
 
 Since the reorganization of both the Glee Club and 
 Orchestra, the principal event of the year has been the 
 Mi-Careme Concert. These past two years the Clubs 
 
 have been so fortunate as to secure the 
 Mr. George services of Mr. George O'Connor and his 
 O'Connor accompanist, Mr. Martin E. Home, LL.B., 
 
 '15, as the chief attraction of their pro- 
 gramme. Mr. O'Connor is an entertainer of high repute 
 in the city, and his services are constantly in demand. 
 In spite of this fact Mr. O'Connor has always freely and 
 gladly given his services to his Alma Mater whenever a 
 request has been made. His popularity is boundless, 
 for at every performance he can never satisfy them with 
 less than five or six selections. Mr. O'Connor has also 
 afforded enjoyment each year to the alumni and their 
 
 47 
 
48 GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY 
 
 friends, who attend in such great numbers the informal 
 concert in the Quadrangle during Commencement 
 Week. 
 
 The Glee Club has also participated in various exer- 
 cises of the annual Commencements. At the Baccalau- 
 rate Mass, usually celebrated in the Dahlgren Chapel on 
 
 the Sunday preceeding the Commence- 
 Baccalaureate ment, those seniors who are members 
 Exercises of the Glee Club, form the nucleus of 
 
 the Senior Choir, that assists in singing 
 the Mass. Their renditions of the Sacred Music have 
 been quite pleasing, and their presence has lent an ap- 
 propriate background for this inspiring collegiate cere- 
 mony. 
 
 The activities of both Glee Club and Orchestra have 
 been confined, for the most part, to Gaston Hall 
 within the college walls. However, during the past 
 year they have received many invitations to appear at 
 various functions in the city. A concert was given for 
 the soldiers at Walter Reed Hospital on April 2 and at 
 Mount Alto Hospital on April 11. On April 
 Glee Club 27 the Glee Club rendered several of their 
 Concerts numbers before the members of the City 
 Outside Club. On all of these occasions the students 
 College were most hospitably entertained by their 
 hosts, and their efforts were appreciated 
 and highly praised. In this connection it might be well 
 to stress the need of these outside appearances of the 
 organiations, as they act as a great inducement to the 
 students to join the clubs, and as a stimulus to increas- 
 ing interest as the year progresses. There have been 
 too few of these activities during the last three years to 
 keep up the proper interest in both Glee Clubs. Several 
 of the alumni in this city and in neighboring cities might 
 take an interest in the welfare of the Musical Clubs, and 
 make some endeavors to have them secure their services 
 for performances outside the college. It is quite true 
 that during the past year many more outside perform- 
 ances could have been given towards the close of the 
 year, but it Was feared that they would interfere with 
 
THE MUSICAL CLUBS 49 
 
 the more important scholastic pursuits, so the offers 
 were declined. 
 
 With a view to a more universal participation in 
 musical activities, courses in the appreciation of music 
 were instituted at the college during the past few years 
 The entire ground of musical appreciation is covered 
 very thoroughly, and in a manner that is most interest- 
 ing to the student. Music Forms, Vocal 
 Courses in Forms, The Content of Music, are treated 
 Music at in the first part of the course. In the 
 College second part the performance of music, both 
 vocal and instrumental is discussed. It is 
 to be hoped that as time goes on these courses can be 
 extended. 
 
 It is fitting in this review of musical activities to men- 
 tion the improvement in the Chapel Organ. Since his 
 Freshman year, James O'Donnell Hanlon, of the Class 
 of '22 has been the college organist He 
 Chapel showed his interest in the instrument in a 
 Organ practical way, by having a motor installed in 
 the basement of the Chapel, so that now the 
 organ is no longer dependent upon the ancient man- 
 power method of keeping the bellows filled. 
 
 Owing to the fact that the time of rehearsals usually 
 conflicts with the classes at the professional schools, the 
 students of these schools have not been able to partici- 
 . pate in the musical activities herein chron- 
 
 icled. However, at the Prize Debates of the 
 Law School, during the year an orchestra, 
 under the direction of Thomas J. Enright and a quar- 
 tette, made their appearance and entertained the audi- 
 ence during the course of the debates. Their efforts 
 were well received, and it is hoped that these organiza- 
 tions may become permanent, and if possible effect a 
 juncture with the clubs at the college. 
 
 Respectfully submitted,

 To the President of the University. 
 
 Sir: I submit herewith my report on the work of the 
 Student Publications for the years 1919-1922. 
 
 The month of March, 1919, saw the appearance of the 
 first number of the Hilltopper which, fro mthe smallest 
 college weekly in the United States, has grown under 
 its new name the "Hoya" into one of the largest and best 
 edited papers in the collegiate world. The Hoya in cov- 
 ering the purely journalistic field in the Uni- 
 The versity has answered a real need, and its three 
 
 Journal years of splendid service has more than justi- 
 fied the initiation of this new enterprise in our 
 student publications. As was natural, however, in the 
 beginning the new paper was looked upon by some as 
 an intruder upon the domain of the Journal which had 
 carried on with such success for nearly fifty years and 
 had gathered about it many friends and a rich tradition 
 of Georgetown literary life. During the last two years 
 it has grown increasingly clear that the Hoya has done 
 the Journal a great benefit by releasing it from the em- 
 barassment of being (what a monthly can scarcely hope 
 to be) a news organ, and consequently has made it pos- 
 sible for the Journal to realize more clearly and pursue 
 more effectively its ideal of being the purely literary 
 organ of the College student body. 
 
 Some confusion of aims, if not in theory at least in 
 practice were inevitable upon the initiation of a new 
 Weekly. Consequent upon the confusion of aims it was 
 likewise inevitable that the older publication should 
 suffer eclipse by the novelty of the weekly. But what 
 loss there was has been more than compensated for by 
 the definition of the object of the Journal. More and 
 more such students as are interested not so much in 
 newspaper work as in the more permanent and purely 
 literary forms of writing are being attracted to the 
 Journal with the result that we can confidently feel that 
 
 51 
 
52 GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY 
 
 the work of its second half century of existence will be, 
 at the least, not less worthy of Georgetown than was the 
 splendid achievement of the first. 
 
 During the past three years, as part of the program 
 to make the Journal the central organ of literary life of 
 the college the members of the staff of editors have been 
 closely associated with the literary movements in the 
 student body. Last year saw the foundation of a very 
 interesting experiment in the bi-monthly meetings of 
 the Rhymers Club for informal discussion of the newer 
 movements in American and English poetry. Members 
 of this club have contributed articles on the Neo Litera- 
 ture (some three hundred books came under review) 
 which have aroused considerable interest both within 
 and outside the college. Our verse writers, too, have 
 been accorded generous space in the College Verse 
 Authologies. 
 
 The Journal has during the past three years in pursu- 
 ance of an old custom published such essays, stories and 
 verse as had taken first place in the annual and semi- 
 annual literary prize competitions. 
 
 1922-1923 will mark the beginning of a new half 
 century of life for the Journal. Naturally the com- 
 memoration of the birth of the magazine and the cele- 
 bration of fifty years of achievement will stimulate the 
 formation of plans and policies for the future. We 
 intend that these policies should follow along the best 
 lines of our tradition. 
 
 An Authology of Journal verse, which should do much 
 toward linking the past with the present and the future, 
 is in preparation by the members of the Rhymers Club 
 and will, it is expected, be ready for publication early 
 this year. 
 
 The first class in Journalism at Georgetown edited 
 and published a small sample copy of what they con- 
 sidered a college newspaper ought to be. It 
 The was in March, 1919, that this lone copy of the 
 Hoya "Hilltop" appeared. With the second issue the 
 name of the weekly became the "Hilltopper" 
 and continued in the form of "the smallest college news- 
 
THE STUDENT PUBLICATIONS 53 
 
 paper published in the United States," until June, 1919. 
 In September, 1919 the paper was enlarged to about half 
 its present dimensions and from January, 1920, on was 
 known as "The Hoya." This name was adopted from 
 the battle cry of Georgetown students for generations 
 and had been used previously by some annual publi- 
 cations. 
 
 Since the paper passed from the control of the class 
 in Journalism to figure as a university organ its succes- 
 sive editors have been: Joseph R. Mickler, Jr., Leo J. 
 Casey, Thomas C. Kinsler and James J. Sweeney. The 
 business managers of the paper during these years 
 were : Joseph J. Greenlaw, James A. Butler and Michael 
 J. Bruder. 
 
 To these men in charge of the finances much of the 
 credit for the paper's continued existence is due. The 
 average cost per year of publishing the paper has been 
 about $5,000. 
 
 The circulation of the paper was confined originally 
 to the student body at the College of Arts and Sciences. 
 It has, however, developed into a university news car- 
 rier with subscribers in the various schools and among 
 the alumni and friends of Georgetown. 
 
 During the last school year the Law Journal resumed 
 successfully its publication, which had been suspended 
 during the war. The Law Journal was revived under 
 
 the same policy as had governed it dur- 
 The ing its previous ten years of publication. 
 
 Law Journal The members of the editorial staff are 
 
 appointed by the Law School Faculty 
 upon a basis of scholarship and general fitness for the 
 work. Students so selected are given entire charge of 
 publishing the Journal under the general supervision 
 of the faculty.

 To the President of the University. 
 
 Sir: I herewith submit a report of the Reserve 
 Officers' Training Corps, Georgetown University, 1919- 
 1922. 
 
 The primary object of the Reserve Officers' Training 
 Corps is to provide a system of military training at 
 civil education institutions for the purpose of qualifying 
 
 selected students of such institutions as re- 
 Object serve officers in the Army of the United States. 
 
 It is intended to attain this object during the 
 time that students are pursuing their general or pro- 
 fessional studies, with the least practical interference 
 With their preparation for civil careers. Upon gradua- 
 tion from college, under the present plans of the War 
 Department, qualified R. O. T. C. graduates who volun- 
 tarily apply for commissions in the Officers' Reserve 
 Corps are commissioned and assigned to organizations 
 of the Organized Reserve Corps or National Guard in 
 the localities nearest their places of residence. In this 
 way there is established some continuity of service be- 
 tween service in the colleges and in the citizen army of 
 the United States. The National Defense Act of 1920, 
 prescribes that the new Army of the United States shall 
 be made up of the Regular Army, the National Guard 
 and the Organized Reserves. 
 
 That the training as given at Georgetown has been an 
 unqualified success is evidenced by the rapid expansion 
 of the military organization since 1919, and the results 
 
 accomplished. Following the World War, 
 Success the War Department urged upon the leading 
 of the educational institutions of the country the 
 Unit necessity and value of including military 
 
 training in the education of the college gradu- 
 ate so that in case of a future emergency there would be 
 
 55 
 
56 GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY 
 
 instantly available a large number of trained officers 
 to man the armies of the country upon which the safety 
 of the nation would depend. Many institutions respond- 
 ed to the patriotic call; others that had expierenced 
 difficulty in maintaining their War time organizations, 
 known as the Student Army Training Corps (S. A. T. 
 C), discontinued military training altogether. George- 
 town was one of the institutions to reorganize her mili- 
 tary department, following the demobilization of the 
 S. A. T. C, in January, 1919. The enrollment num- 
 bered 103 cadets. In 1920, the enrollment Was in- 
 creased to 140 and at the present time there are 316 
 students receiving military instruction, 256 in the In- 
 fantry Unite at the College of Arts and Sciences and 60 
 in the Medical Unit at the Medical School. It is expected 
 that the enrollment next year will reach the 500 mark. 
 
 Both the faculty and the student body have enthusi- 
 astically supported the various military activities. En- 
 rollment in the College on a voluntary basis compares 
 favorably with some institutions where military training 
 is compulsory. Approximately 80 per cent, of the last 
 Freshman Class at the College voluntarily enrolled. 
 
 A military staff of five commissioned officers (two 
 Majors, three Captains) and three non-commissioned 
 officers (one Master Sergeant and two Sergeants) is now 
 on duty at the institution conducting the 
 Military courses of instruction as required by the War 
 Staff Department. The following table will show 
 
 the changes in the details of the Regular Army 
 personnel since January, 1919:

THE MILITARY CLUBS 57 
 
 There are two courses, the Basic and the Advanced. 
 The first two years in the R. 0. T. G. comprise the Basic 
 Course, and the last two years the Advanced Course. 
 Basic Course students devote at least three 
 Course of hours per week and Advanced Course stu- 
 instruction dents five hours per week to military in- 
 struction. Appropriate scholastic credits 
 toward a degree are granted for a successful completion 
 of the R. O. T. C. courses. That the R. O. T. C. has a 
 broad and worthy mission can not be doubted. The 
 means and methods employed by the R. O. T. C. to ac- 
 complish its mission commend themselves to every 
 considerate American. The course of training as now 
 laid down by the War Department is based upon several 
 assumptions established as lessons of the World War: 
 
 1st — That the commissioned officers of the future 
 Armies of the United States must mostly be college men. 
 
 2nd — That the education of the modern citizen to be 
 complete must include a knowledge of Military Science. 
 
 3rd — That every subject taught in any collegiate de- 
 partment possesses some military value. 
 
 4th — That military subjects can be so arranged as to 
 materially enrich the academic courses. 
 
 5th — That every student should be brought into inti- 
 mate contact with the national government and be 
 schooled in a clear understanding of his rights, privil- 
 eges and obligations as a citizen. 
 
 6th — That every member of a military establishment 
 must be physically as well as mentally fit for his every 
 duty. 
 
 7th — That every college man should be taught the 
 meaning of discipline, the power of confidence, the 
 value of self control, the requisites of leadership, respect 
 for authority, the force of morale, the care of mind and 
 body and the rewards of promptness and obedience. 
 
 In connection with the R. 0. T. C. course of instruc- 
 tion, Basic Course students are privileged to attend a 
 summer camp while Advanced Corps students are 
 required to attend a camp. During the past 
 Summer three years, the camps attended by George- 
 Camps twon students have been in different localities. 
 In 1919 Georgetown had representatives at 
 
58 GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY 
 
 Camp Lee, Va., Camp Devens, Mass., and Camp Know, 
 Ky., a student having the privilege of attending the 
 camp nearest his home. In 1920 all Georgetown stu- 
 dents that attended camp went to Camp Devens, Mass. 
 According to the report of the Company Commander 
 of the organization to which Georgetown students were 
 assigned, the honor of making the highest record in 
 Marksmanship fell to Georgetown. There were 16 in- 
 stitutions represented in the company. In 1921 the 
 Georgetown camp contingent attended the camp held at 
 Plattsburg Barracks, N. Y. There were 38 institutions 
 represented at Plattsburg. The following summary is 
 given of the honors won there: 
 
 1st — Out of 10 students selected by a special board 
 of officers as "distinguished" in all phases of military 
 training, two — Joseph A. McDonough and Edward D. 
 Murphy — were from Georgetown. (No other institu- 
 tion succeeded in placing more than one student on the 
 distinguised list.) 
 
 2nd — In the list published in camp orders of the 
 highest point Winners in the entire camp of 982 students. 
 The first and second students on the list were Joseph A. 
 McDonough and Edward D. Murphy with scores of 1409 
 and 1406 respectively, out of a possible 1500. 
 
 3rd — Edward D. Murphy won the pistol championship 
 of the camp. 
 
 4th — In general efficiency, Georgetown was rated as 
 second on the list of 38 institutions. 
 
 The summer camp for the Infantry Unit will be held 
 at Edgewood Arsenal, Md., from June 15 to July 26, 1922. 
 Students from the Medical School will attend camp at 
 Carlisle Barracks, Pa. 
 
 In order to demonstrate to neW students the activities 
 of the R. O. T. C. and the handling of the various 
 
 weapons used in modern war, there 
 Military was ne ld soon after the opening of 
 
 Demonstrations, College in 1920 and again in 1921, a 
 Competitions, military maneuver on the college 
 
 Inspections, grounds featuring a simulated attack 
 
 Parades, Etc. on an enemy machine gun nest. All 
 
 of the equipment issued the R. O. T. 
 C, including Browning Machine Guns, Automatic rifles, 
 
THE MILITARY CLUBS 59 
 
 Springfield rifles, hand grenades, rifle grenades, signal 
 pyrotechnics, carrier pigeons, smoke torches, 37 m-m. 
 guns and Stokes Mortars, were employed in the maneu- 
 ver. In addition to the foregoing, five airplanes from 
 Boiling Field, a tank from Camp Meade, Md., and a 
 wireless telephone set for communication between a 
 station set up on the College grounds and the airplanes 
 overhead, assisted in the problem. Both demonstrations 
 were very realistic and were muchly enjoyed by stu- 
 dents and visitors. Such demonstrations are not only 
 great morale builders for a military organization, but 
 they are very instructive to the students who participate 
 in them. 
 
 Competitions of various kinds enter into all phases of 
 military training in the R. O. T. C. There are class 
 competitions for honors in scholarship, rifle competi- 
 tions between classes and sections of the several classes, 
 and competitive drills of various kinds. Every effort is 
 made to develop the pride of the cadet in his own 
 record, that of the R. O. T. C. and also in the institution. 
 A system of efficiency charts showing the progress of 
 each cadet in Scholarship, Deportment, Attendance, etc., 
 is made and posted every month so as to show each 
 individual his record in relation to every other member 
 of the unit. This system has resulted in securing a high 
 standard of training in the military department. At the 
 end of the school year in 1921, and again this year, the 
 Chamber of Commerce of Washington awarded four 
 prizes to the winners, one in each class, of the efficiency 
 tests in the R. O. T. C. Robert W. C. Wimsatt, '21; 
 Joseph A. McDonough, '22; Edward D. Murphy, 23, and 
 James A. Willis, '24, won the efficiency prizes in 1921. 
 On May 26, 1921, Military Day, the annual competitive 
 drills were held. The list of events included an indi- 
 vidual competitive drill (won by Godwin Ordway, '24), 
 an inter-company drill (won by Company B, command- 
 eded by J. Fuller Morgan, '21), and marksmanship con- 
 tests with the automatic rifles (won by Joseph A. Mc- 
 Donough, '22), and the machine gun (won by Robert W. 
 C. Wimsatt, '21.) The events included in the Military

 Roddy, J. B. Mr. Joseph A. McDonough, of New York, 
 is announced as the "Honor Graduate," class of 1922. 
 
 The most important public appearance of the R. 0. T. 
 C. battalion during the past three years was on Armis- 
 tice Day, November 11, 1921, when the entire unit 
 marched in the procession in connection with the burial 
 of the Unknown Soldier in Arlington Cemetery. The 
 cadets spent many extra hours of free time in prepara- 
 tion to march on that memorable occasion and the bat- 
 talion was highly complemented by the Army officers in 
 charge for the excellent showing made. 
 
 The R. 0. T. C. has been inspected numerous times 
 during the past two years by distinguished visitors.

 The record of the rifle team at Georgetown in 1920- 
 1921 and 1921-1922 is a brilliant one. Rifle shooting is 
 now a minor sport at the institution and many of the 
 students have achieved remarkable success in it. In 
 fact, no other institution has a record indicating such a 
 large number of expert shots as Georgetown. Both last 
 year and this year, the Georgetown second and third 
 teams entered in the National Rifle Association Inter- 
 collegiate Matches showed themselves far superior to 
 the first teams representing some of our largest Amer- 
 ican colleges. It has been the policy at George- 
 Rifle town to develop a large number of expert rifle- 
 Team men rather than a single team of five or six 
 primarily for the purpose of winning matches. 
 An additional policy has been to teach riflemen the art 
 of shooting in all positions prescribed — prone, standing, 
 kneeling and sitting — rather than concentrate all in- 
 struction on the prone position, as many colleges are 
 inclined to do. 
 
 Membership in the Georgetown University Rifie Club 
 is open to any undergraduate in the institution in good 
 standing. The club Was organized in the fall of 1920 
 with a membership of 136 members and it immediately 
 
62 GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY 
 
 affiliated with the National Rifle Association of America. 
 The following officials were elected : 
 
 President, Robert W. C. Wimsatt, '21 ; Vice-President, 
 Thomas Finn, '22; Executive Officer, Joseph A. Mc- 
 Donough, '22; Secretary, Augustine Malley, '23; Mana- 
 ger, Robert Morgan, '22; Student Coach, Edward D. 
 Murphy, '23. The officers and non-commissioned 
 officers on duty with the R. O. T. C. offered their services 
 as instructors and official judges. Sergeant Michael J. 
 Donahue is primarily responsible for the success of the 
 rifle teams as he has worked faithfully since its organi- 
 zation as instructor. 
 
 During the first season (1920-1921) the team was 
 somewhat handicapped on account of a lack of neces- 
 sary equipment. The financial needs of the club were 
 made known to the readers of THE HOYA, and soon 
 thereafter, funds were available to purchase modern 
 rifles, ammunition, etc. With the exception of the do- 
 nations made during the early part of the first season 
 (1920-1921), student members of the Rifle Club, by pay- 
 ing club dues of $2.00 a year, have financed the rifle 
 teams. It is hoped that Athletic Association will soon 
 be able to take over this new sport and finance it. 
 
 In addition to the National Rifle Association Matches, 
 in which teams representing many colleges throughout 
 the United States participated, Georgetown fired fifteen 
 dual matches in 1920-1921. A summary of the dual 
 matches and of the National Rifle Association Matches 
 for 1920-1921 is published below:

 Note that Yale who defeated Georgetown in a prone, 
 dual, match came out below the Georgetown second 
 team in the six-stage N. R. A. matches fired in all posi-

 of the club. 
 
 The following team members made percentages above 
 90 per cent, in the N. R. A. matches this season. They

 As a result of two very successful seasons, the George- 
 town Rifle Club is now recognized as one of the leaders 
 in the shooting world. The sport has been enthusiastic- 
 ally received at the College and the Rifle Club is out for 
 the intercollegiate championship in 1923. 
 
 The class of 1921 was the first to turn out graduates 
 from the R. O. T. C. who were commissioned in the 
 Officers' Reserve Corps. The following graduates were 
 
 commissioned : Murray MacElhinny, 
 Reserve Corps James Fuller Morgan, Paul D. Page, 
 Commissions Jr., and Robert W. C. Wimsatt. The 
 
 latter, being honor graduate, was com- 
 missioned in the Air Service of the Regular Army and 
 is now in the service stationed at Carlston Field, Fla. 
 
 Commissions will be awarded to the following named 
 graduates of the class of 1922: Henry R. Rrennan, 
 George M. Carney, Joseph F. Little, Joseph A. Mc- 
 Donough, James S. McNally, Robert E. Morgan, Cornel- 
 ius J. O'Neill, Jr., John R. Roddy. 
 
 Not to exceed 20 per cent, of the total number of col- 
 leges or universities which maintain senior units of the 
 R. 0. T. C. are eligible to be designated in War Depart- 
 ment orders as "Distinguished Col- 
 Georgetown leges." To be rated as "Distinguish- 
 A Distinguished ed" is the aspiration of every institu- 
 College tion maintaining military organiza- 
 tions. A special committee of the 
 War Department General Staff makes an annual inspec- 
 tion during April and May with a view to selecting the 
 distinguished colleges. The rating "Distinguished" 
 lasts for one year. The following outlines and principle 
 factors are considered in the annual determination of 
 the institutions designated for the distinguished list: 
 (a) Training and instruction facilities, (b) Support of 
 the R. O. T. C. by the faculty and student body, (c) 
 Efficiency of theoretical and practical instruction. 
 
 At the end of the school year, 1920-1921, the great 
 honor of receiving the rating "Distinguished" was at-

 From the foregoing list it will be observed that 
 Georgetown was classified with institutions most of 
 which have had military organizations for many years. 
 The inspection by the General Staff* Committee was 
 made on April 24, 25 and 26 of the present school year 
 and it will not be known until about graduation time 
 whether or not the rating "Distinguished" has been 
 maintained. 
 
 At any rate, it may be said that the R. 0. T. C. is now 
 completing the most successful year since its organiza- 
 tion in 1919. The future prospects are excellent and it 
 is safe to predict that this most worthy organization will 
 ever be a credit to Georgetown and our great country.

 To the President of the University. 
 
 Sir: As Faculty Director of Athletics I have the 
 honor to present the following report of student activi- 
 ties since September, 1919. 
 
 During the three years that have just elapsed many 
 innovations have taken place in this department and 
 there is every indication that they have met with univer- 
 sal approbation on the part of all con- 
 New cerned. A new Constitution was written 
 Constitution and unanimously adopted by the stu- 
 dents of the various departments with 
 faculty approval. The entire management of the affairs 
 and property of the Athletic Association is vested in a 
 Board of Directors consisting of nine members, three 
 of whom are chosen from the Faculty, three from the 
 Alumni and three from the undergraduates. The 
 Faculty members of the Board are chosen by the Presi- 
 dent and Directors of the University, the Alumni mem- 
 bers are chosen by the Executive Committee of the 
 Alumni Association, the undergraduates are selected 
 by the undergraduates themselves. The Board meets 
 the first Sunday of each month during the school year. 
 Most satisfactory have been the results of this new or- 
 ganization and many improvements have been effected 
 in the various fields of activity. The full and unquali- 
 fied requirement of at least one year's residence for all 
 athletes has been insisted upon so that as far as eligi- 
 bility goes Georgetown will meet any team in the 
 country on an equal basis. However, as far as the op- 
 ponents of the teams are concerned the same generous 
 policy will be observed as heretofore — the Faculty of 
 other recognized institutions are to pass upon the eligi- 
 bility of their contestants; their approval will be suffi- 
 cient guarantee for Georgetown. The entire student 
 body have accepted this rule with characteristic enthus- 
 
 69 
 
70 GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY 
 
 iasm. Special rules have beeen promulgated governing 
 the wearing of the "G." 
 
 Never before in the history of the University has there 
 been a more remarkable record in athletic contests; 
 while there have been years of just as great success in 
 one or two departments it has not yet happened that all 
 the departments, major as well as minor sports, have at 
 the same time been so consistently triumphant. This 
 has, indeed, been most gratifying to those in charge; we 
 feel that the energy expended has developed the whole 
 man and has put to test the remarkable versatility of 
 our students. It is recognized by all educators today 
 that organized outdoor sports under proper supervision 
 are an invaluable asset of any institution. Every effort 
 has been made to engage as many as possible in the 
 open air sports and steps are being taken that no student 
 of the College at least will be allowed residence on the 
 campus who does not engage in some profitable outdoor 
 exercise. 
 
 In 1921 and 1922 Robert LeGendre, College '22, re- 
 peated his remarkable record of 1919 when he not only 
 won the Pentathlon Championship at the Penn Relay, 
 but also at the Inter-Allied games held at Paris. This 
 blue ribbon event of the inter-collegiate world has won 
 
 for Georgetown three times in America 
 Pentathlon and once abroad highest commendation 
 
 Championships for possessing an allround athlete of 
 
 international fame. There is no contest 
 in which an athlete is put to greater test nor is there 
 any event in the entire field of inter-collegiate sport that 
 shows needs of greater versatility and physical ability. 
 We are pleased to note that Georgetown's representa- 
 tive in his four remarkable contests not only carried off 
 the palm of victory but he has established Pentathlon 
 records for the throwing of the discus and of the javelin 
 and for the running of the 200 metres. 
 
 The years 1921 and 1922 saw Georgetown's track 
 athletes carry off two inter-collegiate championships. 
 
THE ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION 71 
 
 At the Harvard games, held June, 1921, Jimmy Con- 
 nolly, of the Law Department, won the 
 Intercollegiate inter-collegiate mile race, leading the 
 Championships field in the fast time of four minutes 
 
 and seventeen and one-fifth seconds. 
 This event was regarded as one of the most spectacular 
 races of the year. It was also at the Harvard Stadium 
 that Robert LeGendre won an inter-collegiate cham- 
 pionship through a broad jump of twenty-three feet 
 seven and one-eighth inches. 
 
 It was at the National Inter-Collegiate games held at 
 Chicago, June, 1922, that Georgetown was again vic- 
 torious upon the field and this time 
 National Robert LeGendre set a national inter- 
 
 Collegiate collegiate record for the broad jump 
 
 Championship by a leap of twenty-four feet three 
 
 inches, which breaks all former rec- 
 ords by nearly one foot. 
 
 Little need be said of Georgetown's triumphs in the 
 South Atlantic field. It has, however, been quite re- 
 markable that during the last years 
 South our teams were victorious in 1921 on 
 
 Atlantic our own grounds and again in 1922 
 
 Championships upon the field of the University of Vir- 
 ginia where nine South Atlantic col- 
 leges competed. At Charlottesville Georgetown won the 
 two-day meet with a total of sixty-five points while 
 Virginia was second with forty-five points. 
 
 It was upon Franklin Field, University of Pennsyl- 
 vania, that in May, 1922, Georgetown won two remark- 
 able relay races. The Distance Medley 
 R I Relay race was won against a large 
 
 r , .. field on the first day of the Carnival 
 
 Championships and the half _ mile relay championship 
 
 was carried off on the second day. As 
 these were the feature events of the two-day carnival, 
 the victories were all the more gratifying. 
 
 During February, 1922, at the National A. A. U. Meet, 
 held in Buffalo, Georgetown's relay team became the 
 
72 GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY 
 
 National Champions for the Distance Medley Race and 
 
 established a new indoor record, which 
 National may prove to be a world's record. The 
 
 Championship contestants represented the pick of col- 
 leges and athletic clubs of the country. 
 The time was seven minutes forty-one and two-fifths 
 seconds — the highest record up to that memorable oc- 
 casion was nearly two seconds slower. Thus George- 
 town wrests from Cornell the title held by that institu- 
 tions since 1918. 
 
 In March, 1920, the Georgetown relay team invaded 
 the West for the second time in its history and was 
 again victorious. In 1905 the world record for twelve 
 
 hundred yard race was broken by the 
 Western Georgetown team at St. Louis, Mo. It 
 
 Championships was at Urbana that the traditions of 
 
 1905 were by the Georgetown repre- 
 sentatives. Under the auspices of the University of 
 Illinois the principal athletic indoor meet of the West 
 is held each year. Georgetown accepted the invitation 
 to run the Medley Relay, a two mile event, and was 
 easily victorious. 
 
 At the Knights of Columbus games held in Boston, 
 March, 1922, the Georgetown Relay team defeated Bos- 
 ton College, Fordham and Holy Cross in the Catholic 
 College Relay Championship Race for the 
 Cardinal Cardinal O'Connell Trophy. Previously 
 O'Connell that same week the team had won two 
 Trophy other championship races. As this was the 
 
 first year this elaborate trophy was offered 
 by Boston's distinguished Prelate, the victory was most 
 eagerly coveted. 
 
 In the many indoor and dual track meets, which were 
 held during the three years, Georgetown was never 
 defeated. The most notable dual meet was with Penn 
 
 State early in April, 1922, in which Le- 
 Other Gendre made six first places and Con- 
 
 Notable nolly two. Among the victories of the 
 
 Track Events other meets the Navy was beaten in the 
 
 Sprint Medley relay and Virginia in 
 the two-mile South Atlantic relay. At the Johns Hop- 
 
THE ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION 73 
 
 kins meet, which Georgetown easily won, Fordham's 
 strong team was overcome in the Distance Medley race. 
 In fact, at the Georgetown meet and at the South 
 Atlantic Championship meets Georgetown has won 
 practically every event. 
 
 The Football team has also met with remarkable suc- 
 cesses. In 1919 the year was most noteworthy for the 
 victory at Annapolis over the strong Navy team. It was 
 during the 1920 season that Georgetown defeated one of 
 the best teams that Fordham has ever had. The 1921 
 
 season Football team met only one defeat and 
 Football captured eight victories; Boston College, 
 
 Fordham and Holy Cross were among those 
 conquered and thus the Catholic College Championship 
 of the East went to Georgetown. According to the 1920 
 edition of Spaulding Football Guide Captain Maloney 
 of Georgetown is credited with the longest punt in many 
 years — eighty-five years. This was on the day that 
 Georgetown overcame the Navy at Annapolis. However, 
 it was in 1921 at the victory over Holy Cross that Cap- 
 tain Flavin, of Georgetown, set a record for punting 
 that has never been equalled — one hundred and ten 
 years. In the game with Georgia School of Technology 
 Paul Byrne made the longest run of the season — ninty 
 yards for a touchdown. 
 
 The remarkable record of the Baseball team for 1922 
 
 is still fresh in the minds of all. Never at any 
 Baseball time has Georgetown had a more successful 
 
 season. The following list bears witness to 
 the calibre of opponents met.

 The next best season in baseball was in 1920 when 
 Georgetown had twenty decisive victories. Some of the 
 teams conquered were the Navy, Boston College, Yale, 
 Fordham, Lehigh, Holy Cross, Princeton, Pittsburgh 
 and Washington and Lee. The 1921 season opened with 
 a victory over the University of Pennsylvania, which 
 was quickly followed by a long record of triumphant 
 contests which included Vermont, Fordham, Pennsyl- 
 vania State College, Dartmouth, Cornell, Lafayette, 
 Georgia Tech. The only game played with Holy Cross 
 was a twelve-inning tie. The percentage for the year 
 was .867. 
 
 Ever since Basketball has been recognized as a major 
 sport at Georgetown, interest in the indoor game has 
 been continually growing and the enthusiasm was all 
 the greater during the triennium just finished 
 Basket as the teams have had most remarkable rec- 
 Ball ords. In 1920 there were thirteen victories and 
 
 only one defeat. In 1921 an excellent record 
 was made, the strong teams from Carnegie Tech, Brook- 
 lyn Polytechnic Institute, Georgia School of Technology, 
 and North Carolina Were among those subdued. Nor 
 was the year 1922 less successful as the team was victor- 
 ious in eleven games triumphing over Bucknell, Univer- 
 sity of Kentucky, George Washington, Villanova and 
 West Virginia. 
 
 The record of the Tennis team has been unequalled in 
 the history of outdoor sport at Georgetown. This has 
 
THE ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION 75 
 
 altogether been due to the enthusiastic efforts of a mem- 
 ber of the class of 1922, Raymond J. Kunkel, of 
 Tennis Cincinnati. The season, 1922, was most suc- 
 cessful and the victories were won from the 
 Nacy, Bucknell, Johns Hopkinks, Rutgers, Loyola (Bal- 
 timore), George Washington, North Carolina and Vir- 
 ginia Military Institute. There was only one defeat; this 
 occurred on the day when a championship team had to 
 be sent to Richmond for the South Atlantic Inter-col- 
 legite title, which title was awarded to Georgetown. 
 This victory was received with great enthusiasm at the 
 University and enhanced Georgetown's reputation in 
 the world of outdoor sport 
 
 We regret to state that our athletic accommodations 
 have not kept pace with our successes in the various 
 fields. Much is needed to supply proper athletic facil- 
 ities for the contestants and spectators. It is hoped that 
 the expansion of the University planned by the Board 
 of Regents will take into serious consideration the needs 
 of the Athletic Association. As it is the purpose to use 
 the present athletic field for building sites, provision 
 must be made for ample and up-to-date athletic ap- 
 pointments. There is need of a stadium for the football 
 and track events and also of an attractive and suitable 
 baseball field. Every effort is being made to encourage 
 those who can to help Georgetown to be second to none 
 in athletic accommodations.
