EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage cartoon print titled "CARTOON: COLLEGE ATHLETICS. Soc Et Tuum" by Louis Dalrymple takes us back to the year 1896, capturing the essence of the craze for college athletics in America during that era. The artist cleverly spoofs this obsession through his satirical depiction of a college competition. In the image, we see a bustling interior scene with students wearing their traditional academic gowns and caps, eagerly watching a wrestling match taking place in a university chapel. The wrestlers are depicted as muscular men engaged in an intense struggle, showcasing their strength and athleticism. Dalrymple's attention to detail is evident in his inclusion of various athletic props such as dumbbells and weights scattered around the room. These elements emphasize the importance placed on physical fitness and prowess within educational institutions at that time. The title "Soc Et Tuum" adds another layer of humor to this artwork. It can be interpreted as a play on words meaning "Sock it to them" suggesting both physical blows exchanged between wrestlers and perhaps even poking fun at society's fascination with competitive sports. Overall, this cartoon print offers us a glimpse into American college life over a century ago while reminding us of our enduring fascination with athletics and its place within education.
