Loose scrapbook items, 1919 - 1962

Gaumey Neal's scrapbook contains mostly athletics-related items including team, group and individual photographs of the football and basketball teams that Gaumey Neal palyed for at Wabash College. Programs, tickets, newspaper clippings and schedules of athletic events are included such as a 1916 Wabash-Marquette game, the 1919 Wabash-DePauw game and the 1922 Washington and Jefferson Rose Bowl game against California in which Gaumey Neal participated. The scrapbook includes a congratulatory telegram from Genevieve following the game. Other items include athletic ribbons, a football button, calling cards of friends, numerous dance cards, many postcards of places visited such as the Morrison Hotel in Chicago, his Lambda Chi Alpha membership card and a letter admitting him to membership in the Wingate, Ind. Masons, and some photographs taken at a professional baseball game (probably Chicago White Sox) as well as scorecards from several games. There is also an excellent advertisement for the 1918 Chicago Cubs. Two other items of note are a program for a football game between the Buffalo All-Americans and the Detroit Tigers, Oct. 30, 1921; and a drawing on blueprint paper of the Play-By-Play Electrical Football Scoreboard in operation at the Globe Theater for the 1922 Rose Bowl game.
