From The Lawrentian, 1951-09-28: "Maxie, cocker spaniel darling of the Lawrence College campus, celebrates his tenth anniversary as a tradition this week. It was on a freshman day in 1941 that Max first tagged his master, Charles Kliefoth, to the campus for registration. Kliefoth has long since left the campus, but Maxie stays on, selecting a new mate each year. Max is snapped here in the middle of a little recreational reading. After all, in ten years around a college, a dog picks up a little intelligence. He likes books with pictures best, however."
