(i edJ Letters peii Z jef- auw ill en The D ' Association is limited only to those men who have earned letters in DePauw ' s varsity sports. And our purpose is to work toward emphasizing all phases of sports ' life around the campus- from more effective par- ticipation to a more enthusiastic school spirit. With our help and organization, DePauw University had its first annual Old Gold Day Luncheon in honor of all alumni who were ex- lettermen at DePauw. This years banquet was in honor of the 1933, undefeated, unscored upon, football team. Ralph Houser acted as chairman and toastmaster. We as D men, winners of one or more letters in a varsity sport, sponsored a banquet for this year ' s successful football team, 188 at Old Trail Inn,- guest speaker was Mr. Clyde Smith, head football coach at Indiana Uni- versity. We purchased lapel buttons in the form of a D and sent them to all ex-letter men. These will be given to all graduating lettermen from this year on. We also worked in conjunction with repre- sentatives from Wabash, Butler, and DePauw, trying to create good will among the three schools in regard to athletic relationships. This most successful year under the guidance of our president, Frank Adams, was climaxed with our annual D men ' s picnic, held at Coach Mike Snavely ' s farm.

(I3ehlncl the Uarditu S c y fcene Six p.m. on the football field, an hour after the basketball game in Bowman, or eight a.m. in the stadium — at any time of day some varsity manager is at his job, keeping DePauw s athletic teams running smoothly. His job has no definite hours or duties — his are the multitude of little tasks that are a vital part of varsity sports. Gathering towels, setting up hurdles, band- aging an ankle, giving rubdowns are taken in stride by these seven men. Theirs are the behmd- the-scene tasks which receive not even a curtain call after the show. While the spectators watch the Tigers drive down the field, or break into a fast play on the basketball floor — on a trip or at home — the managers are swamped with their numerous, all-important duties. Theirs is the long-hours-no-glory job. After working as manager of a sport for two years, the boys are awarded numerals. And they receive a letter after three years ' work. This reward is meager enough in return for their essential part in DePauw ' s athletic program. 189
