The gang who lived in Barnes Hall at Cornell University.

[I'm second from the right.] We lived in the ground floor rooms for $1.50 a week apiece, 2 in a room. The building was the Y.M.C.A. bldg., situated on the campus, a very pleasant place. They were a very fine group of fellows. I roomed with Joe Robson and later with Bill Doggett. The latter was a prince of a fellow. It was for this sort of companionship that I craved, but seldom found in the West.

From left to right, their names are:

Ronald Pohl
Joe Robson
Sutherland
Al Kennerson
Bill Doggett
Harvey Tutchings
Dan Welty
Irving Doetch
Hal Mills
Borst from India
Allen Burrows
Richard Fricke
