Description

1 photograph; 3 x 4 inches. <br>This photo is captioned as: "Squirt" Famous Campus Mascot, 1903-1907.<br>Squirt was one of the earliest Washington (State College Mascots, if not the first. It is nearly impossible to date for certain his tenure as mascot. Washington (State College yearbooks of the time mention him as being present in 1906, 1907, and 1908. However, there is a March 14, 1907 entry which says the campus "lost" Squirt, which supports the dates on this photo. Given that he is mentioned as being present the following year, it is possible that another dog of the same name replaced him.
