PUBLISHED By THE STUDENT COUNCIL, MARSHALL COLLEGE, HUNTINGTON, W. I'A. RICHARD BARTON EDITOR JAMES GOODE BUSINESS MANAGER Page One Looking over the post and with an occasional glance at the record, one name constantly reappears. There's the roar of a crov d, the sound of a whistle, the ball is snapped and—on the sideline he impatiently walks back and forth, seemingly unaware of the cro d and interested only in winning the game. The lights beam across the floor, the crowd is tense, the ball is in the air — he leans forward slightly and then sits back, crossing his legs and then running his hand across his chin and up his cheek, a sly smile appears, and he is certain of chalking up another victory. The record becomes clearer now — he began his basketball coaching career at Bristol High School, Bristol, West Virginia, where he originated his famous fast break and zone defense. From there, he went to Muskingum College, winning the Ohio State Championship in basketball. The following year he returned to West Virginia and Davis and Elkins College, where in 1935 he won the first West Virginia Collegiate Basketball Tournament. The following fall he came to Marshall and after thirteen years he is as much an institution as — the library. With over sixty football victories and over two hundred and fifty basketball triumphs to his credit here at Marshall, including three National Basketball Tournaments, believe it or not, his specialty is — baseball! In 1947, he was the coach of the year in the State of West Virginia. To such a versatile man that has given so much of himself to make Marshall College a greater school — the Chief Justice Hall of Fame proudly dedicates this book to a great coach, a great sportsman, and a great man — our own Cam Henderson.

A graduate of Millersville State Teachers College, Gettysburg College, Columbia University and Syracuse University, his experience as a teacher has been fully varied including work in a one-room rural school, in high school, in university summer schools. Dean of Teacher's College at Marshall, acting President and finally President of Marshall. Page Ta. Dr. Smith believes that a college student's experience is broadened by outside activities, a fact evidenced by his own undergraduate days when he was a member of Phi Beta Kappa, Tau Kappa Alpha, Omicron Delta Kappa, president of his student body, a member of the debating team, business manager of his college publication, and a member of the Inter-fraternity council. Now, who says he ain't hep ? Page Eleven A FAMILI DANIEL BANKS WILBURN Dean of Teachers College Dr. Wilburn received his A. B. degree from Shepherd College; his M.

M A., Collage Secretory 1939 In 1837 the citizons of Cabell County bandod togother and founded Marshall Academy lo keep up a good school preparatory to entering college — and to prepare young men for teachers in tho common school's of the country. The record since then has progressed with an amazing growth. Marshall Academy has become Marshall College, and from the small State Normal School it hos emerged into a nationally recognized institution of higher learning. In contrast with the Marshall of 1837, where only reading, writing, history, latin, and mathematics were taught, the Marshall of today offers equally as many degrees, not to mention graduate work in nine separate departments. Our first full faculty of five members, in 1859 has grown tremendously as our record shows here. They are a capable, qualified, and understanding group of individuals, and its been swoll hitching a ride on this disc through our days at Morshall with them. Sylvia Wilton Summer .

MM Page Nineteen It's not unusual to find ono or more students wandering about the office between Dean Buskirk's private office or Dean Brailey's. But it is unusual not to find Millie, (Dean Buskirk's private secretary) at her desk. But a miracle happened the time this shot was mado so we find Marilyn Knotts, student assistant, Elizabeth Barron, secretary to Dean Brailey and one of the students hard at work. CIAL DEANS THANKS FOR THE MEMORY.................. We dug up some old Ohio State Yearbooks and really got the lowdown on this fellow. And Brother, after three and one-half years as assistant dean there, he's really qualified for his job here at Marshall. The Dean is both enthusiastic and conscientious in his work as we well know. He is always willing and happy to lend assistance and give advice to all as the Chaplain of the Campus — Take it to Brailey. His dutios and responsibilities are unlimited: housing, financial aid, unemployment, social aid, and many outside activities, not to mention bailing us out of jail, but as Dean of Men his most frequent phrase is — Ain't That Just Like A Man? If you've lost anything whether its your gloves or ability to smile — the place to go is Dean Buskirk's office. She is always there to fix you up. Mrs. Buskirk knows what a Marshall co-ed thinks — for she was one herself — loft Marshal to get her Master's at Columbia — she knows the professor's side of it too for she has taught in three separate schools. As Dean of Women she fills in her extra time directing Marshall's social calendar. She is in charge of the sororities and Pan-Hellenic Council and works overtime as a chaperone at the various And Stuff Like That There........... Page Twenty To the right of the sanctum sanctorium (Dean Bartlett's offico) we find the quartet harmony. Here Mary Day, standing, checks a schedule with Sylvia Summers, secretory to dean. Virginia Duling Via re-checks a letter in the background. While Mildred June Cotrill gives information over the phone. The President's office might be called the Smiths' office — for it is not only President Smith's second home but also houses Vita lee Smith, College Secretary. Caught in the midst of a working day are — left to right; Mrs. Jack Owens, secretary to Mrs. Smith, Mrs. Vita lee Smith and Miss Adrian Arnett, secretary to Mrs. Smith. Standing is G. J. Dickerson, Jr.f assistant to Mr. Bonner. The record of records is kopt in the registrar's office. Horo Marionne Jordon, veteran's clork sots Pete Chacharonis straight as Anne Kauffelt, secretary to registrar, checks with Mary Lou Hoslett, transcript clerk. Suo Washington, Mr. Young's secretary types in the background. How do you do it records to reod, records to write, records to file, records to look up, records to send out, records to keep. It is truly a record day for all the staff in the various offices of Marshall. We took a camora and wandorod around the hall of Old Main and snapped a few shots because without it, would hove a broken record. What they don't teach in teacher's college can't be taught! Fixing up a schedule for a prospective teacher is Miss Mary Linda Barilla. Hard at work at the left is Ethelene Holly, Secretary to Dean Wilburn. Page Tuxnty-one Chtal A new addition to the family of building and maintenence employees is Charles Collins who came to us from Poca High School. He is loaded with experience and a degree from West Virginia Tech. George Beckett a college institution for the last 7 years is our new Chief Engineer. He supervises our new custodial stafF.These are the people that keep our needle clean so that our tone is better than it would have been if they weren't on the job. Marshall has more than its share of Smiths in the administration departments. But one man we can't forget is Fred Smith, college comptroller. This is his first year at Marshall and those of us who have been here have noticed the changes he has brought about. Below we see him speaking at a dinner for the custodial and maintenence group given in February. Page Twenty-ttco The place where the forms for all the records are made is the mimeograph office. Lillian Newcomb is the chief record maker. If you ever want any information or ideas on how to make-up a paper, bulletin, or records, Mrs. Newcomb is the one to ask. She keeps novel ideas up her sleeves, with hard work, good nature in her finger tips, what more do you need for a scribe. The one office at Marshall with which we are familiar is the treasurer's office. All of us know Mrs. Edith Alexander, cashier, but not all of us know those who keep track of all the money of the college. Here is Mrs. Vida Franklin, bookkeeper, Mrs, Constance Arther, payroll clerk and Mrs. Helen J. Clayton, clerk typist. Mrs. Louise Thompson, treasurer was counting money in her office and we didn't get her picture in. Books, paper, pencils, pens, ink — all the things to help you think, are in the bookstore. Here we see Jim Wright a student buying supplies from Everett Newman, assistant manager. Another student and Junior Vandall, the student assistant looking on. The room behind this main bookstore serves as the college postoffice and informal gossip center of the faculty. Everett Newman, assistant manager, hails from Huntington. Percy Galloway, manager is from Kenova. He attended Marshall 15 years ago and liked it so much he just stayed on. Page Twenty-three CHIEF DISK JOCKEY . . . There'll be Some Changes made ' was the tune to which our chief disk jockey climbed on the turntable. You've seen the guy presiding at the Student Council meetings or College Theatre conclaves. Heard him as John in Two on an Island or Masters in Joan of Lorraine. The administration knows him for as he spins the platters the music comes out harmoniously for he has the technique of blending all the notes of college life into a pretty good melody. He's a Real Gone Guy and you can tell from the picture above. The Independents started singing Old Loudermilk Sky when they heard the election was coming and the majority of the student body must have heard that song for election day they come out to put Don to work supervising the music that issues forth from this Marshall Wave Length. Page Twenty-four TNE 1948 SENIOR CLASS - It might be interesting if we could look back to dear old forty four and see just how many hep cats started on this quest for knowledge, and as we wonder just what happened to a lot of them, four years from now we'll be wondering just where all those people that we graduated with have ended up? We've had a lot of fun together — those who have stuck it out, and as we scan through the pages of this record there'll be an occasional smile, a laugh, and sometimes a few tears, as we pass through the greatest school of them all — life.

They haven't been here long enough to make any great recordings, but we know they'll have four wonderful albums by the time commencement spins around in '51. As a class they went wholly independent and elected Bob Stone, their President; Bob Shuck, Don Williamson, and Gloria Pack their representatives to the Student Council. Aside from finding ways and means to spend their time and money, our frosh were interested in finding how they could best spend their leisure, and so now we find them well distributed over the campus finding their way into prep rooms, week end socials, and campus life at its fullest.-Won't be long till they look just like they belonged. Sitting, standing, or stompin', we know they're the frosh on tho campus. Page Fifty-one Marjorie Ayer Huntington, W. Vo. Mary Bird Saint Aibant, W. Vo. Jome W. Bowling Hinton, W. Vo.

Page Fifty-four fa$e f Pa e Fifty-rix I HUB OF THE DISK... THE SHAWKEY STUDENT UNION The Student Union is usually crowded with an li mmc assortment of campus characters. Here and there MORRIS a foursome at bridge endlessly heckled by expres- MANAGER sionless kibitizers; two studious thinkers crouched over a chess board in some corner; the usual whispering groups at the latest gossip, and always somewhere in the middle of all the clamor, a be-speckled student munching crackers and lost in a book, unaware of the rest. There's generally a blaring juke box, surrounded by clapping jive-hounds, keeping beat with the rhythm of the couples occupying the dance floor. The din of noise is climaxed by an occasional sour note of a one finger movement from the piano in the back, by a solitary individualist. And so goes the —hub of the disc. MRS. G. M. PLIEMAN HOSTESS FRED AUSTIN YOUNG MAN Pag Fifty- PAN HELLENIC COUNCIL In union there is strength. That is the principle behind the Pan Hellenic Council of Marshall College. Its purpose is two-fold; to regulate matters pertaining to local sorority life and to encourage each chapter to take an active interest in all school and college activities. The council is composed of three representatives from each sorority. Offices are held in rotation by the sororities according to the time of their establishment in the college. This year we took part in various activities such as; Christmas parties for underprivileged children, planned program for children of the faculty, and acting as hostesses for the alumnae tea. We will award a scholarship trophy this year as we strive to improve the scholastic standing of our school. Previously the national sororities here have been under the Association of Education Sororities. In November 1947, these sororities were accepted as associates in the National Pan Hellenic Council and will probably become full members in June 1948. Psi Epsilon, our newest sorority on the campus was admitted to Pan Hellenic Council in December 1947.

Robert Rurford The Interfroternity Council is the governing body of the fraternity system at Marshall College. The membership is comprised of the presidents of each fraternity, together with ono other representative. From this group, the Interfroternity officers are elected by secret ballot. The Council has two primary reasons for existing. In addition to its governing policies, it is tho responsibility of the group to adopt rules and regulations pertaining to rushing and pledging, serve as an organ for the dissemination of helpful suggestions in promoting better understanding among the fraternities and tho student body, and to promote scholarship. Extending beyond tho campus, tho Council has always endeavored to improve relations between Marshall College and the peoples of the Tri-state area. We sincerely fool that this not only helps to promote goodwill and understanding between the fraternities and the citizens, but it also spreads the good name of the college. To this end we have accomplished many deeds, although we realize only too well that our task is not, nor ever will be finished. For example, under the able direction of Homer Lambort, wo staged a Christmas party for the crippled children in St. Mary's Hospital. During the last semester, we staged various programs to entertain the children of faculty — even taking these youngsters to Point Pleasant, showing movios, excursions through a newspaper plant, and staging a Halloween Party. In the very near future the IFC will endeavor to establish an Interfroternity Sing, an Easter egg hunt for tho childron of the faculty, and other worthwhile activities. Sports is another important activity under the direct sponsorship of the Council and the able direction of Professor Otto Swode Gullikson. Cups and other prizes ore given by the Council to the winning toams. Yes, tho Interfraternity Council is enjoying its best year in all its history. However, we realize that our job has only begun. Constantly we are striving to improve conditions on the campus — with the welfare of the student body constantly in mind — whether they be Greek or not.

Many social and cultural activities have been given were highlighted by a visit from our national president, Mrs. Haswell Staehle of Columbus, Ohio. She was honored by several social activities given by the collegiate and alumnae chapters. In October we were busy with rush parties which included a formal given in the Laidley Hall Lounge, an informal party, and a formal dinner at the Hotel Governor Cabell.

Originally the chapter had been Alpha Tau Pi. On the 26th of September this year we held our annual open house, giving all the student body an opportunity to see our home and generally to get acquainted, but our next parties were strictly for the girls, being the rush parties. Our first big formal was the Snow Ball Dance in the Union December 5, and our first informal was a Valentine Party February 13.

It would begin by telling about rushing— the formal tea—how it was converted to Sigma Sigma Sigma's Nursery at the second rush party—it would let us retrogress to the simple beauty of our traditional mock wedding — it would tell about the Mother's Club tea—how the girls worked til all hours on the Homecoming float— open-house for the alums on Homecoming Day — how our own B. J. Blair was chosen Miss Marshall at the Thanksgiving Victory Dance — it would tell how diligently the pledges worked on their benefit bridge and about the wonderful Christmas party they gave the actives — it would tell about our Christmas Dance at the Women's Club with breakfast afterwards at the Continental — It would tell of Helen Kinner as the Phi Tau Sweetheart — it would proudly display the plaques, hanging on its walls, won by our volley ball and aerial darts team for capturing the tournaments — it would tell about our spring dance — Founder's Day — Yes, I'm sure it would tell all these things and oh, so many more. Page Sixty-nine THETA Theta Rho, local social sorority, is one of the oldest Greek letter groups on the campus.

The class system was then in effect at Yale, Amherst, and a few other colleges. The founders of Alpha Sigma Phi made their elections and initations in June 24, 1846. All involved were in the class of 1849. An attempt was made to expand into Amherst College, but this failed, so in June 15, 1850, the Beta Delta Chapter was instituted at Harvard. This was disbanded through an anti-fraternity agreement and no records were kept. On June 19, 1854, the Comma was installed at Amherst and lapsed in 1860. The Delta Chapter was located at Marietta College in Ohio and the Epsilon Chapter at Ohio Wesleyan University. In 1863 due to dissention prevalent at New Haven the Delta Chapter took over management of the Epsilon Chapter. The local chapter is the Beta Delta Chapter which was founded on the Marshall Campus in 1922 in the name of Sigma Psi Fraternity. In 1929 Sigma Psi became Mu Chapter of Alpha Kappa Pi Fraternity. In September 1946, Alpha Sigma Phi and Alpha Kappa Pi merged and retained the name of Alpha Sigma Phi.The reason for this consolidation was to give a better and more marked service to undergraduate chapters. Highlights of Alpha Sigma Phi's social activities are the Masquerade Ball and the annual Star Dance. In addition to these are various gatherings. In 1847 Alpha Sigma Phi instituted The Yale Tomahawk which continued annual appearance during 1857 to 1862 when it was stopped by the faculty. In 1909 the present fraternity magazine was instituted 'Tomahawk. The fraternity's colors are cardinal red and stone gray. The flower is cardinal rose. Dovglot iinft William Short jam.. Sharp.

Some of the social events we had for the past year include: an informal smoker for preps at the Hotel Governor Cabell, an informal party held at the American Legion Home for active members. A Holloween party held at Brother Ken Suiter's farm in Chesapeake, Ohio. On January 16, 1948, the Kappa Alpha Fraternity held its convivium or Founders Day Formal at Radio Center with Guy McComas' Orchestra furnishing the music. On April 16 the KA's held their Spring Formal. Our most outstanding record for the year was capturing second place honors in the scholastic standing of the Fraternities on the Marshall Campus.

Page Eighty-two Hon Most of the members of Sigma Phi Epsilon were originally members of the local fraternity. Alpha Theta Chi. Alpha Theta Chi was founded at Marshall, March 17, 1926. It was the second oldest fraternity on the campus. While a local fraternity. Alpha Theta Chi took on active part in campus activities just as Sigma Phi Epsilon now does. Alpha Theta Chi was installed as West Virginia Gamma Chapter of Sigma Phi Epsilon on December 6, 1947. The installation, which was performed by the Beta Chapter installation team from West Virginia, University, was held in the Rose Room of he Hoel Frederick. Tho feaure of the day's program was a banquet held Saturday evening at the Frederick. A formal dance at tho Showkcy Student Union followed the banquet. Guests at the banquet were Dr. Stewart H. Smith who welcomed Sigma Phi Epsilon to the campus, William Hindman, national secretary. Dean of Men, Lester G. Brailey, a Sig Ep himself. Prof. Otto A. Gullickson, Prof. H. G. Toole, faculty adviser of Alpha Theta Chi, Richard Pharr, district governor, and Ted Bush, field secretary. Sigma Phi Epsilon was founded in 1901 at tho University of Richmond, Richmond Virginia, and is the thirteenth largest national fraternity in the United States. The local chapter, while actually the third chapter in W. Va. is the only active chapter in the state other than Beta chapter at West Virginia University. The third Chapter, West Virginia Alpha at Bethany College is now inactive. West Virginia Gamma is the seventy-ninth chapter of the national organization. On the week-end of January 30th, the Sigma Phi Epsilon chapter at Ohio State University celebrated their 40th anniversary with a banquet at the Neil House in Columbus. The following members of the local chapter attended; Norman Doe, Bill Hussion, Joe Tomaselli, Bob Cunningham, and Jimmy Overby. Dean Lester G. Brailey, who also attended, took the group up in his car. All of the reports made by the fellows indicate that they wero royally entertained by the Ohio State men. They still talk about what a time was had by all. Jim Wilson, guard on the Big Green Basketball team, a brother Sig Ep, made the deciding two points in the Marshall-Syracuse game which won for Marshall the Pepperdine Invitational Tournament at Los Angeles, California. llcboirnon lowaronco Borr T A U EPSILON PHI Tau Epsilon Phi, a recent addition to the Marshall Campus, has completed their first year. As a recognized, national Greek letter fraternity, and are eagerly looking forward to many more friendly years on the campus. The original group receivod their charter in April, 1947, and through their efforts TEP was born. The original nine included; Bob Levy, Don Schorr, Fred Husch, Hal Shriber, Seymour Slotkin, Larry Barr, Manuel Wallace, Don Romer, Selig Salkowitz, and our faculty advisor. Dr. Julius Lieber-man, head of the German department. The beginning was slow but with hard work, the fraternity started to blossom. Officers wore elected and included Bob Levy, Chancellor, Don Schorr, Vice Chancellor, Ned Husch, Treasurer, and Seymour Slotkin, Scribe. Our activities were meagre at the outset, but gradually, the members participated in more campus, and civic functions. A few of our civic cultural activities to date, included a symposium, covering World Problems, two highly successful Church affairs, and our presentation of the Mr. and Miss Marshall contest in cooperation with the March of Dimes drive. The College Hop, jointly sponsored by TEP and Sig Ep, was our first calendar event, and the peak, to date, of our social events. Previously TEP has had two banquets, four smokers, five informals and a hay ride to Mad Anthony Wayne, to keep our members in the right fraternal spirit. Our aim is to build a strong Organization founded in friendship and cooperation, a must in the life of any man.

The growth of the organization from its colony days until installation as Beta-Nu Chapter last December has been gratifying. The Tekes as a National Fraternity believes that sterling character, an inquiring mind, and a sound body equal the sum total of a socially adjusted man in our complex civilization. These principles are adhered to faithfully by the chapter at Marshall and numerous opportunities for social development are offered. The Festival of the Red Balloons in the winter and the May Day Red Carnation Dance are the outstanding social events of the Teke calendar. The pursuit of social development has in no way jeopardized the academic standing of the fraternity. We are proud to be the youngest fraternity at Marshall College. The fine traditions of our national fraternity since 1899 are now a part of the college. We hope you will like us. Page Eighty-seven FIRST ROW: Uft lo right:—Glocio Williomt.

SPORTLETTES The Sportlettes Club appeared on Marshall campus in January 1945 and was recognized as a Marshall College organization on November 12, 1946. This club is open to any girl not affiliated with a sorority, subject to approval of active members. Its purpose is to encourage an active participation in intramural sports and to promote a social atmosphere among the members. Social highlights for the first semester of this year included an informal dance in honor of the football squad and a Christmas party for the new members at camp. Page Ninety-two INDEPENDENTS The Independents is an organization formed for the purpose of bringing more social activities and a voice in the student government to the majority of the students, especially those unaffiliated with any other organization. The Independents were founded in February 1947, Donna Geddis, Bob Hundley, Skeets Wilson, Walter Felty, and Sid Kay among others, were instrumental in organizing and giving the independent student a part in college affairs. As to increasing the voice of the unaffiliated students in the student government, the Independents have been successful, in electing to the Student Council, Don Loudermilk as student president, Tom Farley and Bob Stone as Sophomore and Freshmen presidents respectively. Pat Foley, Don Craig, and Harold Smith, Alvin Hunt were elected as Sophomore representatives and Gloria Pack, Richard Shuck, and Don Williamson were elected as Freshmen representatives. Among the social activities sponsored by the Independents, the most outstanding were the first annual Independent dance and beauty contest held last spring. A Bill Kearns specialty entitled Bella Donna and a Halloween Dance. As it expands, the organization plans to enlarge the scope of its social activities and contemplates the building of a better Marshall in the future.

Thus we are in a position to refer students to these companies for interview for jobs. At many of our regular meetings we show film relating to engineering subjects. These give extra educational training. The members receive a subscription to The West Virginia Engineer, a magazine published by the West Virginia Society of Professional Engineers. Also, we frequently attend the meetings of the Huntington Chapter during their weekly luncheons. Page Ninety-five SCHOLARIS Scholaris, an honorary fraternity recognizing scholastic ability in freshmen was organized through the efforts of Dean Lester G. Brailey. First meeting was October 30, 1947, at which time Walter Wilson was elected President and George Mac Knight was elected Secretary and Treasurer. Men who make a 2.5 grade average in their first and second semesters in Marshall are eligible for membership in this fraternity, which has a present membership of twenty.

Anyone who works in College Theatre can become eligible for membership. Before you can be initiated you must have done work in at least three aspects of dramatic work production and your achievements must have been of excellent quality. Alpha Psi Omega was founded by Professor Turner E. Stump and Paul Opp at Fairmont, W. Va., for the purpose of giving special recognition to those college students who have unselfishly donated their time, creative imagination, and artistic sensitiveness to the college drama program. The Beta cast at Marshall College was the second cast to be formed. At the present time there are over 200 casts of Alpha Psi Omega, and these are scattered in various sections of the country. Each serves as a monument to high attainments in showmanship and better appreciation of the dramatics arts of the college youth of the nation. First Row:—Roth Ann Jonkinl, Don loodormilk.

Since 1935 it has been an associate society of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. Kappa chapter for men was established in 1925 and Gamma Sigma chapter for women was established in 1934 at Marshall College. Gamma Sigma merged with Kappa chapter in 1947. The purpose of Chi Beta Phi is to promote interest in science by means of lectures, presentation of papers, general discussions, and tours of scientific and industrial establishments. In January 1948, Kappa chapter initiated 47 new members. Grand officers. Dr. A. C. Black-well, Dr. A. D. Callihan, and Mr. Arthur Maloy conducted the initiation and attended a banquet at the Frederick Hotel in honor of the new members. This group was one of the largest ever to be initiated into any chapter of the Fraternity. I’agc Ninety-eight D-RHO D-THETA r.ul Row;—Uft lo Right—Sum T. SliniOn. Roy Or m, Corl f.

Honorary Engineering Fraternity This fraternity was organized in the spring of 1938 under the sponsorship of Professor A. E. McCaskey, Jr. for the purpose of providing recognition and fostering scholarship among outstanding engineering students. An annual banquet is held in May for the initiation of new members and for the election of officers for the ensuing year. An annual award of an appropriately engraved silver cup is awarded to the sophomore engineering student who has maintained the highest scholastic average as a freshman. Page Ninety-nint This year Phi Chapter celebrated its Twenty-fifth Anniversary at which time Miss Isabella Wilson, who originally installed Kappa Delta Pi on our campus, visited us. Dr. Banks Wilburn highlighted the initiation service by an address on Great Teacher. Other events of the year included a breakfast, a weiner roast, and an annual Christmas party. KAPPA DELTA PI Firt!

ODK was founded at Washington and Lee in 1914 by three students who thought it would be helpful if the leaders of the various college activities were brought together in one group. The motives of the founders have developed into the three-fold purpose which guides the endeavors of approximately sixty Circle 7 that flourish on campuses of the United States today. Beta Lambda, the 55 Circle, was founded at Marshall College on May 23, 1947. We are proud of the progress which our new Circle is making, of the fact that ours is the first and only Circle in West Virginia, and of the many leaders in the community and state who are already members of ODK.

It was reorganized the first semester of this year after having been inactive since the beginning of the war except for a brief time during the fall semester of 1946-47. The purpose of the fraternity is to give the pre-law students an opportunity to become better acquainted with each other and to meet prominent lawyers, judges, and other speakers who are invited to the meetings to talk on different practical aspects of the law and fields relating to law. The highlighting activity of this year was a banquet in the College Cafeteria on Jan. 9. Dean Thomas P. Hardman of the West Virginia Law School was the guest speaker. Other guests were President Smith, Dr. M. G. Burnside, Pre-Law adviser. Dr. Conley H. Dillon, Dr. A. E. Harris, Dr. Charles P. Harper, Mr. J. W. Fitchett, president of the Cabell County Bar. Guest speakers at other meetings of the year were Maxwell W. Flesher, Huntington attorney, Mr. Mosley, Chief attorney for the Vet. Admin. in Huntington, and Harry Scherr, Jr., Huntington attorney. Joe Hall, a former member, is now attending the Law School at George Washington University, Washington, D. C. Page One Hundred Pour I The International Relations Club is composed of Marshall students who are interested in the relationship between the various nations. Discussions and debates fill in the most of their meetings and outside speakers are invited to speak on subjects on which they are authorities. INTERNA TIONAL RELATIONS CLUB Conley M.

We fulfilled our major functions this year by holding our meetings on the first and third Wednesday's of each month with addresses by local business men, and by issuing our yearly list of graduates to potential employers. Page One Hundred Six MARSHALL CLASSICAL ASSOCIATION In December 1906, when Marshall College consisted of one building which housed all the classrooms, the auditorium, and the president's office (then the library). Miss Hariett Dale Johnson, instructor of Greek and Latin, met with a group of students and formed Zeta Rho Epsilon. It was a fraternity organized to promote the study of the Greek language and literature. Since 1908, the campus club has been made up of both Greek and Latin students. These students must meet certain requirements and classifications in order to belong. The meetings serve the purpose of supplementing the student's cultural background, as well as acquainting the students within the department.

The German Club of Marshall was instigated by Dr. Lieberman and Dr. Weiss plus the spirit of German language students. It started with the small beginnings of picnics and parties in 1946 and finally in 1947 was recognized by Marshall College after submitting a constitution and otherwise conforming to regulations. The primary purpose of the club is to arouse and maintain interest in the study of the German language, German literature, and highest ideals of German culture. Secondly, to promote fellowship among German language students, to provide informal entertainments and a medium for informal discussions of problems concerning the study of the German language.

The meetings are conducted in French and French conversation is encouraged. (In the early days, anyone found guilty of using English during the meetings was required to pay a penalty by doing a chore or performing some stunt. French music always has a place on the program and playlets are given frequently. Occasionally there are guest speakers who have lived or traveled in France. In the spring of 1916 the Cercle Francois presented an original play for the public in the corner of the campus at Sixteenth Street and Third Avenue on a natural stage. The Cercle continued to flourish under the inspiring leadership of Mrs. Olla Stevenson and still later under the able direction of Professor Yarbro. (The former frequently gave illustrated lectures on French life and customs.) More recently the Veterans have contributed much to the success of the Cercle by filling various offices and conducting panel discussions of their impressions of France and the French people. Pog$ One Hundred Nine Delta Kappa Chapter of Delta Omicron Professional Music Fraternity was organized on the Marshall College campus in May 22, 1945. Tho charter mcmbors were Rose Marie Martin, Bette Diehl, Virginia McKoc, Claren Peoplos, Janice Edwards, Thora Cooksy, Betty Fitzgerald, and Elizabeth Rouse. Dr. Harry E. Mueller, head of tho music department, and Mrs. Mueller were made Local Patron and Patroness. The late Miss Claron Peoples became the Chapter Adviser, and upon her death, Miss Janice Edwards Chandler assumed that office. Miss Grace Eugenia Roe, piano instructor in the music department, joined the group the following year and became the Faculty Adviser. This year Miss St. Elmo Fox, Marshall College piano Instructor, became a member of the sorority. The sorority has ushered at sevoral Huntington symphony Orchestra concerts during the past year.

To be able to accomplish this, the band members have frequently undergone fullband sessions, and have run the risk of losing their neighbors by spending many hours daily practicing ot home. The activities of these musicians really keep the record rollin'. MADRIGAL CLUB The Madrigal Club composed of 85 men and women is one of the prominent organizations on the campus. The club this year has reached a higher level in musical accomplishments than ever before. Though it is not organized as a club, but as a class, which meets fivo times a week, it is conducted informally and offers opportunity for close friendship and companionship. The name Madrigol originated with the first group of singors to form the club; although the club does not speciolizo on Madrigals, the name has been retained. The director and organizer of the club. Dr. Harry Mueller, supervises in arranging for the activities of the club. A graduate of tho New England Conservatory of Music, he has tho Bachelor and Master's Degree in music from the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music and Mu.

I'm the little guy who look through ihe keyhole every Monday night while Don Loudermilk sit ot the table and presides over the meetings of the Marshall College Student Council and Felice Jobe on hi right taking the minute as fast a she can. And here's what I know: Charles Proctor, Business Manager and Senior Class President, surrounded by the Senior representatives, Virginia Blanton, Maxine Woods, Alex Podgarney, Bob Tamplin, and William Hussion were discussing the selection of cheer-leaders. They just couldn't decide on a blonde or a brunette! When the time approachod for Sadio Hawkins Day, thot room was really in an uproar. After much discussion, James Driscoll of the Junior Class was elected chairman of the day, while Clyde Steele, Jr. Class President was to be on hand to take pictures of the day's activities. There appeared to be a lot of work for the committees, but their work wosn't in vain, because you remember how successful the day was. At their next meeting, the Council welcomed the following Freshman representatives: Bob Stone, President; Gloria Pack, Don Williamson, and Dick Shuck. They voiced their opinions of the Freshman Class concerning Freshman rules, but nevertheless, the little green beanies went on sale at the bookstore. The most important event of the year was the Homecoming Game, Parade and Dance. Need I tell you of all the little details that had to be considered to make this day memorable? The council didn't order the rain, but that did not keep the parade from progressing down town and on to the stadium. I'm still hearing comments on the success of the dance. But you should have been with me Friday night watching the council setting up tables and chairs, hanging crepe paper, and setting up the bandstand until the wee Aours of the morning. They come home tired, but happy for they realized this would be the most successful homecoming that Marshall has ever witnessed. Intermingeled with the past activities, the Studen Council has sponsored mixes on some Wednesday nights during the year. Don Craig, Tom Farley, Alvin Hunt, and Dick Farley are always placed on the committee to make arrangements for these dances. I feel so sorry for Pat Foley when the Student Council sponsors anything. She alwoys has to make the posters to be displayed in the Union, the Greenhouse, and various other places on the campus. Another major activity that is sponsored by the Student Council is the Spring Carnival. They plan and plan before the Actual date, and I'm sure I'm right when I say it certainly does take a lot of work. Some of the members were placed on a committee to change the constitution and I feel for them 'cause it's certainly in a mess. The Council sponsors many other things on the campus and we as students should be proud of them for the work they do for our enjoyment and entertainment. Don loudermilk.

The main objective of all the Hillel chapters is to provide a home away from home for all Jewish students on college campuses in the United States, Canada, and Cuba. The Marshall College Hillel Counselorship was created in order to promote cultural, social, and religious activities among Jewish students on the Marshall College campus. As the group has grown in number the scope of the activities has become greatly extended. The present group is working for the future so that in years to come Hillel can do bigger and better things for Marshall College and for the community. t Page One Hundred Twenty one Play In. Ton Parthenon Vol. 46 College List T Each Wednesday and Friday noon, barring mechanical difficulties, finds The Parthenon at its distributing points on the campus. Then and only then, can the staff breathe a faint sigh of relief and settle back to reflect on their handiwork. A lot of hard work, thought, decision, and indecision go into each issue, and at the same time everyone has a lot of fun. Big event of the year for The Parthenon staff, although it entails the most work is the large, three or four section annual Spring Edition which is now distributed each spring on High School Day. Established in 1896, The Parthenon is now in its fifty-first year of publication. It is sponsored by Prof. W. Page Pitt head of the department of journalism. Chester Ball, instructor in Journalism, is editorial advisor, and Miss Virginia Lee is advisor to The Parthenon reporters. The Parthenon took ts name from the Greek temple honoring Athena, Goddess of Wisdom. It was for many years an eight column publication, changing to its present tabloid size in 1934. In January of this year. The Parthenon, came under the editorship of Ernie Salvatore, former sports editor, and the following were named staff assistants: Paul Davis, Gene Brake, Mary Jenkins, Celia Smith, John Henry Shadburn, James K. Dye, Walter Browder, Charles Buchanan, Paul Williams, Earl Kirker, and Richard Workman. i i INFORMAL—OorUi Connor, Ernie Salvatore. Page One Hundred Twcnty-twO . November 10, 1947 found staff members Charles Conner, Ken Baylor, Alice Carte, Charles Oppenheimer, and Parthenon adviser Chester Ball spending a rainy but entertaining week-end in Elkins as Marshall representatives to the West Virginia Intercollegiate Press Association convention. Charles Conner as retiring president of the organization, presided until new officers were elected. Mr. Ball was named a co-advisor of the WVIPA by the delegates. Do we have a story on Professor Blank's appointment? — Where's the ad layout? — Rewrite this, it doesn't make sense. And so the anguished cries echo through the library basement as The Parthenon staff attempts to beat another deadline. Some four hours later, with nearly all copy in, the same group can be found downtown at Commercial Printing laboring over make-up. As the dummy forms near completion, most of the staff can be found hard at work writing headlines, and once more the anguished cries are heard, this time from the headline writers as a managing editor snarls and says, You can't leave a preposition dangling like that.

J., came in the person of our own John Lair. Dividing his time between the sports editor, the photographer, the women, his lessons-and the (censord) editor, he did a swell job. First starting out as Publicity Director and Circulation Manager, John, last semester filling in here and there, has ended up as Managing Editor. Some of his best brainstorms included: The erection of the giant subscription chart in front of the Student Union with the Marshall Band blasting out the beginning of the circulation campaign. When the effort failed to obtain permission from the city Authorities to use an airplane in a stunt to drop leaflets over the campus, we went balloon happy. So, gas filled balloons. Of the five that were released, one was found in Glasgow, Delaware. Next, the Circulation and Publicity Department sponsored the send off of the basketball team to play in the tournament in Los Angeles. This proved to be a great success. And finally just before the Christmas vacation the climax was reached by the throwing of a gigantic Balloon Ball in the Greenhouse in which five students received free subscriptions that were released in balloons late in the evening. Through all these affairs the Chief Justice sponsored, it gave confidence to the students and faculty that this year the staff of the NEW Annual meant business and were prepared to work night and day for as long as necessary to put out a truly great book of which only a school like Marshall deserved. tow: left to Right—Clyde Steele.

The summer passed quickly—June, July, August. Then- Marshall swamped Steubenville on September 20, in the opening game of the season. After this win of 60-6, there was little doubt but that they would have a better than average team, which, the record shows, they did. CAM HENDERSON HEAD COACH JOE PEASE BACKFHLD COACH ROY STRAIGHT ASSISTANT COACH Page One Hundred Thirty-six A L L September 27, Marshall rolled to a 38-12 triumph over Ellis Johnson's Morehead Eagles thus avenging last year's defeat. After the opening kick-off, the Big Green displayed a scoring punch, headed by Wetzel and Fieldson, which the Eagles could not solve and as a result they hit for two more touchdowns in the second, another in the third and two more in the final period. Then, on October 4, the Green upset a favored Eastern Kentucky club 7-6. Hartley scored a power-paced drive in the first quarter carrying Marshall to their lone touchdown and to their victory. But it was then that the local laddies ran into a Dad's Night game with Canisius and after a night of see-sawing the lead back and forth, the visitors took the game 25-20, giving the Thundering Herd loss No. 1. LUTHER F. POLING ATHLETIC DIRECTOR CO-CAPTAINS Charles Snydor Tackle Chascy Wilson Bock Page One Hundred Thirty-seven Charles Fieldson Bock The next week the Big Green, angered over their loss, traveled to Evansville, Indiana and trounced the Evansville College gang 24-0. The game was paced by Wetzel. The Thundering Herd tore the Evansville line to shreds to score three touchdowns and a field goal. This was our first game to hold the opponent scoreless. Still feeling a little dissatisfied, the Herd proceeded to overpower Indiana State 33-0 before returning home. The power running of Wetzel and Fieldson accounted for most of the yardage. The bright spot in the victory was the defense against Ind- Chasey Wilton Bock Morvin Wolzol Sack One Hundred Thirtij cight iana's 27 aerials of which 11 failed and of which four were intercepted by Marshall. Their longest gain by an aerial was 18 yards. The prize play came midway of the second period and resulted in Marshall's third touchdown. Dave Evans returned an Indiana punt to our 39—Wetzel picked up nine yards. Don Gibson sneaked through center and after going to Indiana's 40, tossed a lateral to Bob Koontz who went on to the 34. Wetzel hit center and tossed a screen pass to Fieldson on the line of scrimmage and behind perfect blocking went all the way to the goal—brilliant playing!

The next game with Murray State on November 8, wasn't very tough for the locals either. A twin cluster of three touchdowns in each of the second and fourth periods when Marshall exploded with un- Page One Hundred Forty stoppable power enabled the Big Green to down the scrappy Murray eleven in a free-scoring game 41-20. The Herd lost their game of November 15, due to Xavier's passes. The Green got off on the right foot by scoring in the first three minutes of the game. They got a break when Norman Bob Wellman Uft-HaH Jim Rockwell End Danny Clark Gvord Page One Hundred Forly-one Dick Roberts End Willey and Bob Koontz blocked Xavier's punt on the 39 yard line and the ball rolled back to the Xavier five where Jarrett fell on it.

Bob Sang Tackle Joe McCoy Center Xavier power soon started to tell and the Muskies came roaring back for one touchdown in the first period and another in the second to take a 12-7 lead at halftime. Another touchdown for Xavier in the third ended the scoring at 18-7. Page One Hundred Forty-two It was an inspired Marshall College football team which thrilled their homecoming crowd of 7500 with a brilliant 33-19 victory over the Bradley University Braves November 22, as the Big Green scored their eighth win of the season. The Herd, displaying probably Bob Hartley left Half Jim Plybon Ta«VI. their best physical and mental game of the season, struck for a quick touchdown in the first quarter to take the lead and they remained in the front all the way.

Freshmen, Bob Koontz and Norman Willey proved their ability early in the season, and Co-captain Charlie Snyder, Bob Sang, and Joe Preston took care of the tackle positions with excellent assistance from Jim Ply bon, Dearl Seelinger and John McWhorter. Danny Clark, Claude Miller, and Louie Gibson were seen throughout the season, and Miller was made Co-captain, along with Chuck Fieldson, for the '48 season. With such a great football year behind us, we can only look forward to a greater season in '48 and '49. 1. Koontz is smothered by two Xavier players for a two-yard loss. 2.

LINE COACH ■ ROY STRAIGHT AND CATAWBA COACH AT ORLANDO Roy Straight took over as head coach and the grind was on. With Willey and Koontz, members of the basket ball squad, unable to take the trip, new combinations had to be worked over in addition to regular grid work. Coach Straight and his men left December 22 and drilled on their practice field in Florida until the game New Years night. Although losers to Catawba College by a 7-0 margin, the Big Green played one of their better games of the season. Only one thing hurt them—a lack of breaks. In fact the locals didn't receive one solitary break throughout the game and Catawba picked up many. With nine wins and only two losses Marshall's Big Green received a bid to play in Tangerine Bowl at Orlando, Florida. We accepted even though Cam had the basket ball team scheduled for their Western Tour d u r i n g the Christmas Holidays. r BO Don Gibson and Jimmy Rockwell played a groat game that night and the fact that Catawba made only 54 yards on the ground proves that Sang filling, Gibson's regular defensive fullback slot, playod an inspired game. This is one time that the title of the record belies the tune that comes out when the needle goes round and round. But wo would like to thank the boys for making the tune a good one. Page One Hundred Forty-seven BASKET The footballs had not yet been put away when Big Green coach, Cam Henderson, assembled his prospective basketball team in the Athletic building. Many were uncertain of the seasons success because of the loss of Bill Hall, one of the nation's top scorers last year. There was no need for worry! Under the professional grooming of the Crafty One, newcomer, Bob Koontz, and the returning favorites, Andy Tonkovich, Gene James, Bill Toothman, Dick Erickson, Jim Bakalis, and Bob Wright were worked into a highly capable and coordinated team. BALL As early as their first game against Morehead, the Big Green showed promise of plenty of victories to come. Already the team was rounding into shape with great offensive playing, and the use of Cam's original last broak.

The Greens left to defend their crown as the NAIB champs immediately after their last home game. Looking back over the season we find many highlights—to catch a few: the razzle-dazzle style of ball handling that made Marshall known whenever the quintet got on the floor; with over a year of straight wins on their home court; Toothman, Tonk and James listed as national high-scorers, our tournament team—winning both NAIB in '47 and the Pepperdine Tournaments.

The Old Man was interested and plans for the tournament and a western coast tour for Marshall started rolling. To be considered as one of the top teams of the tournament speaks well for both the team and its coach. The W. Va. team came through to beat West Texas State, one of the tallest quintets in he tournament, 56-55. The game of games was the overtime final game with Syracuse. 46-44 was the final score and the Marshall team came home with the trophy. Los Angeles Invitational Trophy Marion Newman Page One Hundred Fifty-three Erickson and Toothman fight for rebound Jamos jumps with Eilors in opening game Page One Hundred Fifty-four N A I B Paced by Andy Tonkovich, fast and sharp-shooting guard, Marshall College opened its bid for the 1948 N. A. I. B. championship by defeating Peru (Neb.) State Teachers, 72-53. Tonkovich racked up 22 points. He was followed by Bill Toothman with 15 and Gene James, who racked up 12. Hallslrom and Meeker, with 14 and 13 respectively, were high men for Peru. The Marshall attack ran up a 22-10 score in ten minutes of the first half. Brooking with all the speed and deception which won it the title last year, the Thundering Herd was never pressed. In the last part of the first period, Peru began to hit their long shots and narrowed the gap slightly. But each timo they drew near, the Herd would again stampede to six or eight points in a few seconds, and pull even farther away. The first half ended with Marshall leading, 36-25. Even though the Marshall squad let up the pressure during part of the second half, fho Peru team never got closer than they were at the half. The lightning break and almost unbolievablo shots of the defending champions was at all times thrilling to the crowd of about 8,000. Halfway through tho final stanza Marshall had a 50-32 lead ond with five minutes remaining Marshall led, 61-41. Marshall College, defending champions of the N. A. I. B., were defeated in a thrilling overtime battle by San Jose (Colif.) Stote Teachers, to highlight the second round in the National Intorcollegiate tourney at the Municipal Auditorium Arena at Kansas City, Mo. Junior Morgan, substitute center for the Californians popped in the winning goal on o follow shot to odgo a Marshall team which had at one time been fifteen points behind. Marshall, slow and lethargic in the first half, thrilled the crowd with a whirlwind second half comeback to tie the score at 62-all in the last minute of regular play. Marshall and San Jose swapped the lead through the first minutes of the first half before the defond-. ing champions got out in front by a point and then held tho spot until late in the poriod. San Jose got three quick buckets late in the half to take a halftime lead of 30-27. San Jose outscored Marshall 14-6 in the first four minutos of the second half. With the count at 41-27, Marshall seemed too far back to contest the game. San Jose's lead stood for a few minutes before Marshall began to whittle away. In the last ten minutes of the regular playing time, Marshall scored thirty-ono points to sixtoon for San Jose to knot the count at 61-all. Andy Tonkovich, Gene James and Bill Toothman, tho regulars who paced Marshall to a title in last year's tournament, hawked the ball and with tho famous fast break of the Thundering Herd led the way to a tie. James tossed a free throw and Junior Morgan, of San Jose, matched it in the last minute of play to end the regular time in a 62-all tie. San Jose quickly grabbed a lead in the overtime, John Kane and Stuart Inman making goals for a 66-62 margin. Marshall began rolling and in the last minute of play it was tied at 72 but Morgan's shot won the gome for San Jose, 73-72. Andy Tonkovich Gene James ALL FOR ONE MARSHAUSAN JOSE I. 0.

Page One Hundred Sixty three The most recent of Cam's products who continues to be outstanding in basketball is Bill Hall the top reason why Marshall won the NAIB tournament last year. Bill came to Marshall in 1944 and for three years led the squad and the scoring. His sophomore year found him on the third team of the true All-Americans and captain in 1945 and '46. Last year, his junior year, he led the scoring at the NAIB Tournament with a total of 96 points. Named All-American, he is one of the greatest left-handed shots of all times. Since leaving Marshall, Hall has played pro-ball for the Kansas City Shamrocks, the Dow Chemical All-Americans in Michigan, and other top-notch teams of the nation. Hall is, at present, playing for the Puritans, another All-American League team in Wheeling, West Virginia. ✓ jack Matif°rd X % I, jack Hunt W NAME HIM! WE'RE JUST REMINISCING.

Many thanks to our advertisers, because without them and their conscientious cooperation this book would not have been possible. In our effort to give you a good annual we hope that our work has not been in vain, and that in the future years we may find your firms still listed in the Chief Justice. James Goode Businoss Manager t ) ■. Page One Hundred Ninety-eight This book has been a tremendous task, with countless headaches, endless hours of work, and loads of fun, but now the job is finished—and this is the end of your '48 Chief Justice, now it's time for bouquets. The first hearty thank you goes to Jim Goode, my right hand man, who kept the money rolling in and made a great many more of these pages for you possible. Many thanks to Johnny Lair, our effervescent Managing Editor, that lightened the load and made the job a lot easier. To our own Clyde Steel and to Mrs. H. F. Hendershot, the people that turned out these wonderful photos, way up into the wee hours of the morning, more times than I've got fingers and toes also a thanks. To the others on the staff, many, many thanks, and my apologies for being such a slavedriver. The administration has been especially cooperative, and to Veta Lee Smith, Alva Rice, Frank White, and right on up to President Smith, thanks doesn't seem like much in comparison to all the grey hair I know I've given them. Slightly off the record, but important to me, there are two more people I wish to thank—my wife, for being so patient and critical, and my son, Dickie, that inspired me to work just a little harder. To everyone else, students, faculty, and advertisers, thanks again and again, because without you, this book would not have been possible.
