  MARK CATLIN. To those who have been interested in athletics to any extent during the past decade, the name of Mark Catlin is a familiar one, for during a number of years the prowess of this young athlete was a matter of almost daily mention in the newspapers, and although he is now engaged in the more serious business of the law, he still retains his interest in his former diversion with advantage to himself and to his pupils in the capacity of instructor in physical training and athletics at Lawrence University, Appleton, Wisconsin. Mr. Catlin was born November 12, 1881, in Kane county, Illinois, a son of Frank and Ida (McDole) Catlin, natives of Illinois. Frank Catlin has owned about 2,000 acres of land in Wisconsin, where he is a well known stockman, and for the past twelve years has been located at Ashland. He had five sons, namely: Louis, deceased, who was an attorney; Mark; George, a Wisconsin agriculturist; Frank, who is attending the University of Chicago; and Ira, attending high school. Mark Catlin entered the University of Chicago after attending the public and high schools of his native locality, and here he soon became famous as an athlete, being captain of the football team that defeated Michigan's mighty football machine in the fall of 1905, but that he did not let his athletic activities interfere with his studies is evidenced by the fact that during the same year he graduated from the university with the degree of Ph. B. For a time he was located at the University of Iowa as a professor, during which time he was engaged in studying law, and in the spring of 1909 he was graduated from the law department with the degree of L. L. B. During September of the same year, Mr. Catlin was admitted to the bar, and since that time has been engaged in the practice of his profession at Appleton. During Mr. Catlin's athletic career he participated in events all over the country, including the Olympic Meet at St. Louis, in 1904, and his collection of medals and trophies for superiority on the track is a notable one. He is now secretary of the Commercial Club of Appleton, an organization boasting of 300 members. He is also a member of the Phi Delta Theta and the Phi Delta Phi, fraternities of the University of Chicago, and of the Knights of Pythias and the Elks. With his wife he attends the Congregational church, and in political matters he is not bound down by party lines. On April 14, 1906, Mr. Catlin was united in marriage with Miss Elizabeth Blanchard, who at that time was a, teacher at the Chicago Art Institute, and they have had two sons; John and Mark, Jr.
