This twenty- second volume of the Violet is dedicated. KU 6 S New York drew to itself the Com- merceethe peoplesfthe homage of all nations, it fostered the growth of New York University. Over the span of a century thou- sands of youths have grown to manhood under the influence of New York University. Liberal and public-spirited men have ever nourished its schools of arts and sciences. At the turn ofthe nineteenth century was founded the School of Commerce, Accounts and Finance. Here is enriched the industrial, the commercial, and financial blood of each new generation. The Violet for 1951 is a chap- ter in the history of that school. It is the cul- mination of a hundred years' progress. The Violet is a reflection of what Commerce stu- dents do and think. It cannot record the suc- cess of those who have gone before, but the Violet can give hint of the ambition and antici- pation of those for whom it was written. E71 S P wx gothic lviiilding, which stood at the northf east corner of Washington Square, was the home of New 'Ynrlq University from 1835 to 1895. This impressive liuxlcling is still held in ajjlectionate memory lug' represeritatives of num' erous old Kniclqerhoclqer families, many of them descendants of the fmmders. True to its ideals, the University put its 'mark indelilyly on a Cher' ished section of the city. The old structure has been replaced, but its spirit lives on. Fresh opportunities have brought broader felds of activity and a renewal of faith in the original purposes, The Hall of Fame and the group 01 buildings on the campus at Univer- sity Heights. the medical group on the east side of the city, the Universityls Wall Street Division are the outgrowth of a concerted impulse of far' sighted citizens, Massively this same spirit lives on in the fue lvusldings at Vwfashington Square. l Cdfflistory of Uxkw :york University 1830-Founding of New 'York University 1831-First Officers 4 Elected 1838fFouncli11g of the Law School and Medical College Cn January 4, 1830, nine gentlemen met one night to discuss plans for the formation of a university on a liberal and extensive scale. The names of these distinguished gentlemen, the founders of New York University were: lvl. Mathews, J. IVI. Wainwright, Auf gustine Smith, Valentine Ivlott, Joseph Delafield, Myndert Van' schaick, Hugh Maxwell, Isaac S. Hone and John Delafield. Of these, two were clergymen, two merchants, two physicians, one banker, one lawyer, and one gentleman of leisure devoted to the study of science. Action was the keynote of that meeting. Within sixteen months, a charter had been obtained, and the University of the City of New York was incorporated on April 21, 1831 and registered at Albany. It required fully one year to overcome the numerous obstacles which presented themselves, and it was not until October 3, 1832, that actual instruction was begun. Clinton Hall, now Temple Court at the corner of Nassau and Beekman Streets, bore the distinction of housing the first students of New York University. The enrollment was one hundred and four students. Albert Gallatin, distinguished by some historians as the ablest of secretaries of state, became the first president of the University Council, with Morgan Lewis vicefpresident, Samuel Ward, treasurer, and John Delafield serving as the first secretary. james J. Matthews, D.D. was the first Chancellor. Under the untiring efforts of these first officers, the work prof gressed rapidly, and Clinton Hall soon became inadequate. In July, 1833, the cornerstone for a building on a newly acquired site on the east side of Washington Square was laid, and on May 20, 1837, the new college was at last dedicated to the purpose of science, literature and religion. This beautiful edifice fully housed the students for the next fifty years. The forward outlook which has characterized the rise of New York University was indicated in 1835, when the Hon. B. F. Butler presented his plans for the organization of a Law School. By 1838, the new department was in active cooperation, and Dr. Butler was elected its first principal. After making secure the establishment of the Law School, Chancelf lor Matthews resigned in 1838. The Hon. Theodore Frelinghuysen, a graduate of Princeton and a distinguished member of the Senate, immediately replaced him. Under his able guidance the University enjoyed an extended period of prosperity, and its enrollment inf creased rapidly. The Medical College was founded under Chan- cellor Frelinghuysen in 1839. E91 Six 'Years Without a Chancellor Successive Catastrophies Struggles of Chancellor Crosby Admission of Co-eds Acquisition of the Heights He was forced to resign when selected to run for vicefpresident on the Whig ticket in the campaign of 1844. No one could be found to fill capably the vacant oflice, and for six years the newly founded University continued its work without a head. Its success was considerably endangered, but at last in 1852, Dr. Isaac Ferris was selected Chancellor. Upon him rested the responsibility of co' ordinating the divisions of the University. By 185 8, the University was more firmly established than at any other time in its history. The attendance had grown to 639. Of this number 110 were in the College of Arts and Engineering, 411 in the Medical School, 70 in the School of Law, and 5 8 were enrolled in the other divisions. The outlook at this time seemed very bright, but again a series of catastrophies seriously threatened the existence of the University. The Medical College situated at 14th Street and Irving Place, was suddenly wiped away by a great fire, which razed the entire section in 1866. The efforts of many years were thus annihilated in one night. The Civil War also had drained the University of many students and faculty members, decreasing its enrollment and depleting the ranks of capable instructors. The resignation of Chancellor Ferris followed on the heels of these catastrophies. A iire had razed the Medical College, a war had sapped the strength of the University, resignation had deprived it of one of its most faithful workers. Conditions were truly in a woeful state. To Howard Crosby were turned all eyes in 1870, when he accepted the Chancellorship and with it the superhuman task of rebuilding from ashes and ruins. The struggles of the new Chancellor and his aides to replace New York University on a firm footing compose a long and bitter history. Lack of funds caused the lowest floor of the University Building to be rented to publishers. It was explained that the book trade would be in harmony with the character of the building. The work of rebuilding the medical College progressed favorably, and in 1876, the new home was opened with about five hundred students on its rolls. In the same year it was suggested that the University should ad' mit women students as well as men. This suggestion caused great consternation in the Council, which at first strenuously objected to these intruders. But the proposal was considered oiiicially, and in 1876 women were admitted and granted the rights and privileges of male students, Education must necessarily be progressive, and New York Univerf sity has not been an exception. In 1891, the option on the Mali estate above 179th Street was accepted, and construction soon was begun at the Heights. Aid now came from an unexpected source. Col. W. L. Strong, President of the Ohio Society, assisted conf siderably in securing more acreage on the new site. The University is indebted to him for the athletic field, which was named Ohio Field in appreciation of the Society's active interest in New York Univer- sity. I10l Change in Name Proposal of New School Dean johnson Wall Street Division The quarters at Washington Square were fast becoming inadef quate. The old University buildings were torn down, and a modern ten story structure, Washington Square College, replaced them in 1892. This expenditure practically crippled the Hnances of the University, and the Council was forced to refestablish tuition fees of one hundred dollars a year in 1893. Early in 1896, it was realized that the name University of the City of New York conflicted with similar names in the City. Hence the name' was changed to New York University. The School of Commerce was proposed to Chancellor MacCracken by the New York Society of Certified Public Accountants. The chief aim of the school was to be the training of men for Account' ing and incidentally, for other fields of business. The proposal was favorably received, and in September, 1900 the School of Com' merce, Accounts and Finance opened its doors in the Washington Square Building. The Hrst course could be completed within two years and was designed for evening students at its inception only. Like the University itself, the School of Commerce was very small, having but sixty students. The first dean was Charles W. Haskins of the firm Haskins and Sells. Dean Haskins' term of oHice was very short, for he passed away in 1903. Joseph Johnson, who was secretary of the new school, was elected to the office. Under his uninterrupted leader' ship which lasted till 1925, the School of Commerce overcame all obstacles and attained its present prestige. More to Dean Johnson, perhaps, than to any other faithful ser' vant of the school is the School of Commerce indebted for its present prosperity. His sudden death on January 22, 1925, was bitterly felt by students and teachers alike. A bronze bust in the lobby of the School of Commerce is a perpetual symbol of the love the students and faculty harbored in their hearts for Dean joseph French Johnson. The school survived all the trials and reverses. In answer to many calls from business centers throughout New York City for more conveniently located divisions of the School of Commerce, the Wall Street Division was organized in 1914, at 90 Trinity Place. Classes were also started in the Eagle Building in Brooklyn, as well as in the Wells, Bankers Trust, and Broad Exchange Buildings in lower New York. . In September 1920 the Graduate School of Business Administraf tion as well as the Bureau of Business Research was established at the Wall Street Division. The School of Commerce has the dis' tinction of being the first college devoted exclusively to the train' ing of students for business. Through almost unsurmountable difficulties, New York University has established its present position of authority and dignity. The one hundred years of effort and sacrifice have finally borne golden fruit. Constant devotion to duty, ardent school spirit, and fervent cofoperation have been the foundation stones upon which the pillars of New York University stand. 1111 CQNTENTS BOOK1 . .....

I30I C60 the Glass of CGhirty-Qne i EXT year the University will celebrate its first centennial, and the School of Commerce its thirtyffirst birthday. Our School has played a substantial part in University activity, and its influence in the life of the community and the community and the nation will continue to increase. This influence will depend upon yourselves in large measure. You are the architects of your own fortune even though circumstances may at times seem to conspire against you. Have faith and courage with perseverance. You have heard of the Singing Tower in Florida, a bird sanctuary, where these beautiful creatures which God has created come to praise Him with their delightful melody. Create singing towers out of your own hearts by developing the moral and spiritual qualities of grace and harmony of spirit, of consideration for others, of loyalty, generosity, and friendship. Your hearts are like gardens, and a happy life depends upon the soil and the tiller of the soil. The heart of a man changeth his coun- tenance either for good or for evil. QECI. 13, 31.1 The larger successes of life are not secured by those who connive or scheme to gain them, but they are obtained by those who have prepared for them. Part of this preparation you have now completed, but the job is by no means finished. Education or preparation is a life-long process, and when one ceases to prepare, he virtually ceases to live. I should like to say many things to those of you who are about to be gradu- ated, but considerations of space forbid. Be wise in your choice of companions. You must expect to meet but few who will pass the crucial tests of friendship. But one needs few friends provided only they be those who turn storm and tem- pests into a fair day. It has been my privilege to possess such friends, and I cherish them as the greatest blessings of life. I wish that all of you shall have a similar experience. Finally, remember always that I am deeply interested in your happiness and welfare, and if you wish to increase my stock of happiness, you will not neglect to keep in touch with me from time to time. .e777fmf i31l ew york University Qouncil OFFICERS SJGEORGE ALEX.ANDER, A.M., D.D., LL.D., President.

Anyone will tell you that we're leaving a school which has no traditions, no ivy covered walls or chapels with stained glass windows donated by wealthy alumni, no crystal lake over which crews skim in the spring of the year. We're leaving a school with no traditions, yet memories throng our minds as the end approaches. We have had a great class for four years, and we can't help but become reminiscent. There was football practice at Farmingdale. It was the squad's first year there when Jack Connors was captain. Al Gaudet captained our frosh team. Freshmen registration and classes were soon under way. Clarence Mathews was elected president of the class. With fraternity rushing, most of our time was taken up by smokers, football games, bull sessions, and more smokers. And then came the trip to Nebraska, which did not turn out so profitable for the Violets. Christmas holidays came along, and some of the boys worked in the Post Office. We crammed for final exams and then lost a few of our classfmates before we had a chance to become ac' quainted. Spring, baseball, final exams passed and most of us were sophomores. We all put our naive heads together and decided that Brosius and SeBoyar were the best entertainers of the year. In our sophomore year we rode the new Frosh. Gary Berman headed our class this year. Football again and then the caravan to Pittsburgh and that never' tofbefforgotten battle, which practically made Strong and Lassman AllfAmericans. Thanksgiving and a wonderful season shot by the Oregon Aggies. Ken Strong cap' tured the headlines by marrying one of Broadway's fairest at the Little Church Around the Corner. Christmas Holidays and then the midnight oil burnt on final reports. Bill Conroy's basketeers went through an erratic season but ended it up by giving the undefeated Fordham five a thorough and unexpected trouncing, which did all of our hearts good. l43l Spring came and so did baseball. The whole University was plunged into a period of gloom for a couple of days by the sudden and tragic parting of Ed Hill. Commencement rolled around and more fond adieus. Another year was gone. Cur junior year opened under the leadership of Leo Jaffe. Smokers and polif tical powfwows interspersed with a few sorority rushfparties relieved us of the strain of over study. -And then there was the everpresent football team with Len Grant at the helm. An erratic season including a 26fO walloping at the hands of Fordham gives us a good reason to say very little on this subject. The Winter Frolic rolled around, and we all looked over the new cofeds while Herb Schiffer handed out Student Council keys to the councilmen. The North Study Hall witnessed the occasion of our annual Christmas Party a week later. Everybody received a present from the Dean to the porter. The holidays, exams, and a brand new semester was upon us. Basketball took care of our Saturday nights and then came the Junior Prom with Cy Rotenstreich collecting the Shekels. The Senior Hop and Commencement followed, and the academic year was over. Three short months of vacationing soon passed with everyone running around with the other fellow's girl. After a general exchange of fraternity and sorority pins, we were ready for the last lap. Then came the sudden passing of Al Lassman and the realization of what this genial giant had meant to New York University. Regis- tration took place with the aid of Ed Krasiiov and their senior classes. Alvin Smith headed the Student Council, and the popular Gus V aretsky, long apprenticed aid to the Science Department presided over the Senior Class meetings. The trek to Teck' brought a victory due in no little measure to the nimble feet of that popuf lar sophomore Bob McNamara. The Colgate game to aid the unemployed apple vendors proved to be the game of the season with the violet warriors on the short end of a seven to six score. After midfyear exams we were on the last stretch. As this message goes to press in the midst of the basketball season, we have yet a few highlights left unmentioned including the Senior Ball and Commencement Week. The greater part our college careers are over. We, the class of thirtyfone, feel proud of the fact that we leave a record of acheivements. To the class of thirtyftwo which follows us, carry on. To the University which has sheltered us for four years, adieu. lf44l enior iBallot Most popular: Custer Varetsky. Most talented: Robert J. Collins.

Entering bewildered freshmen, in a new, partially eomf pleted building, they set themselves to the task, and have made an enviable record. As freshmen, stopping the soph smoker, having a wonderful time at their own, they started their sophomore year by capturing the frosh smoker: running an excelf lent theatre party, a successful dance, both socially and financially, and one third through the long six grind. The junior year is a memorable one, crowded with socials, dances, the junior Prom, class dinner, the inauguration of the All Commerce Wiiiter Frolic, and the tapping for Alpha Phi Sigma, junior honorary fraternity for service. This marks the passing of the halffway mark. Already some have dropped out, others have taken the certificate course, and it becomes a little harder to discern familiar faces, due to the constant influx of new classes. Class oflieers change, new faces come out on the political horizon, and the old faithful workers carry on, oblivious of tappings and honors, striving to obtain success in their undertakings, whether it be in class activities, societies, clubs or publication work. i95l At this point, we were left by the last four year class, and became the lordly seniors, to reign for three years. The second half of the race is begun. Again activity and the usual affairs, the first of our three Senior Hops, a crashing success, tapping for Arch and Square, senior honorary fraternity for service, and another year closed, bringing us closer to our goal. As we look back, we see that we have plassed two thirds of the uphill grind, it seems to be a survival of the fittest. There is a feeling of postfgraduateness as we enter the current year. Yet with all this, the seniors take the initiative and hold a night school football rally before the Georgia gameg another school rally before the Senior Hop, a program of inter' class athletics, service on the Commerce Violetg another Arch and Square tapping and to cap the climax a brilliant Senior Hop at the Hotel Pierre. It has been a wonderful ive years crowded with memorable events. Some are graduating now, having carried extra courses, and attended summer school. But the majority of survivors remain, ready to uphold the tradition and carry onf Sailing on, sailing on, class of '32, We're with you, we're with you, for our love is true, For six years, we shall strive, To keep our name alive, N. Y. U., ThirtyfTwo, Do or die for you. l96l MYLES LEA, '31 SECRETARY OF STUDENT COUNCIL JOHN D. LEINWAND MURRAY M. BERNSTEIN SIDNEY GREEN BRUNO BENETT1 LEOPOLD AMSTER f CHARLES D.

Each year it has kept alive in its small group a feeling of sincere interest. The year to come will be the last of its existence. What has it done in the past two years! to deserve remembrance? The Hrst notable act in the freshman year was the election of officers, all of whom have been willing and ready to carry on. They deserve mention. Sidney Morvay, Presidentg Sidney Amsterdam, VicefPresidentg Seymour Sunshine, Treasurerg Florence Nelson, Secretaryg Hannah Weinstein, Historian. At the end of the 1929410 year the class elected its officers in order to be able to start effectively and energetically at the beginning of the new semester in September. Under the capable guidance of President Silverman, class meetings proved very successful and helped bring the class together and foster class spirit. Though there were a number of social functions held during the first semester under the guidance of Albert Cantor and Nathan Katz the Prom occupied the spotf light throughout the year. First it was planning and anticipating, then the actual event, and last the talk and gossip which follows. In connection with the Prom, which was held in conjunction with the night juniors, the class held a number of socials together with the senior class. These events were run in order to make classmates more acquainted with each other and so provide for a better time at the respective Proms. i98l The Prom, shining light of the year, was held at the Hotel Ambassador on Marclr 14. An unusual precedent was inaugurated with the selection of the President of the class, Herbert Silverman, as the chairman of this important committee. He was ably assisted by Mortimer Anchell. The Prom went down in the annals of Commerce as an unqualified success. Other members of the committee who helped make this affair a success were: Lester Williams, Arthur Fuerstein, Morton Goldberg, Sam Kuperman, Charles Schwerin, jack Solomon, Harold Herman, Maurice Bloom, Arthur Goldstein, Murray Sorken, and Lester Marcus. During the year the class was under the leadership of the following oihcers: President f HERBER'f SILVERMAN VicefPresident f f JOHN SCANLON . Secretary f f RICHARD MASON Student Rep. f ARTHUR SHAPIRO Historian f f SIDNEY SELIGSON Treasurer f STANLEY BUTT l99l Evening quniors HE Class of 1933 has passed through four proitable years. This year, like the past three years, has seen the fulfillment of the resolution made in its Freshman days to set a precedent for the classes that follow. Under the able guidance of President Ray Connelly, class meetings were interest-' ing, active, and concise. The class showed loyal support to its officers by the large attendance at each meeting. The social functions of this year were the most successful ever held. George W'eiser and his Social Committee cofoperated to make these affairs outstanding events. The Class turned out in full force at Delmonico's to attend the Third Commerce Wiiif ter Frolic on December 13. The Promenade, the most important event of the junior Social year, was held on March 14, at the Hotel Ambassador. A delightful dinner was served in the Green Room. Dancing to the music of Harold Stern and his Ambassador Grill Orchestra in the Louis XIV Ballroom and the Italian Gardens until three o'clock brought to every' one an enjoyable evening. The success of this affair was due to the efforts of the Com' mittee headed by Artie Pearson and George Cohen. Among the luminaries of this year's class were: Frank Pelleterrie, former member of the Student Council, member of Alpha Phi Sigma, and one of the most active members of the class. Mac Hubar, member of Alpha Phi Sigma and genial member of the Promenade Committee. Ben Kaplinsky, VicefPresident and able understudy to President Ray Connelly. Len Laufer, Class Treasurer and Adviser to the Freshman Class. And we must not forget Dave Gzibeck, hard Working Secretary, Paul Konen and Hy Mintzer, who were actively interested in every class endeavor. f100j President f f First VfC6'PTCSidE71f Second VicefPTesidev1t Secretary Treasurer Historian f Orator GEORGE COHEN FRANK PELLETERRIE OFFICERS 1 f , EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE M.

MINTZER ELLIOT BROWN Sophomores PEEDING along with the momentum of their successful entrance into activif ties as Frosh, the class of '33 commenced their convivial year with a rousing welcome to the incoming Freshmen. It was a heart-inspiring affair, rich with entertainment, refreshments, and speeches. The new Soph and Frosh officers were introduced to their respective classes amid a turbulent ovation. The outstanding event of the season-The Smoker-was soon anticipated. Ela' borate preparations were made, and many surprises were afforded to those who atf tended. Among the entertainers was Carl Frucht, honorable Frosh president, who had been kidnapped on the previous night and held captive in a fraternity house until he consented to entertain at the Soph Smoker. Although the Sophs lost their annual basketball battle to the class of '54, they gained a moral victory. Hopelessly outclassed from the start, they put up a fight that has seen few equals in many years. Dogged and determined, they fought until the last whistle, and only then they lost out by a solitary point owing to a hair-raising, last minute heave at the basket by a Frosh forward. After the game an orchestra, supplied by the Sophs, pepped it up for the dancers. The class held a social gathering after the Christmas recess. Acquaintances were renewed, and the members of the class banded together to put over the rest of their activities with even more zip than they had supplied in the Smoker and the Welcome. Owing to the untiring efforts of the class as a whole, the Spring Hop, which was a formal affair, provided a grand and fitting climax to the successful year of the Sophs. The lovely cofeds of the class, arrayed in gorgeous evening gowns, formed a pretty picture in the company of the male members, who were strikingly attired in full dress outfits. The entertainment, the dinner, and the orchestra were all that could be desired. fiozj Colgate Universityis Football squad, resting before their charity game with New York University's gridders on December 6, received its first unofhcial reception to New York City from the sophomores of the School of Commerce. Following their successful smoker on December 5 at the Governor Restaurant on Fifth Avenue near 32nd Street, the secondfyear students of Commerce snakefdanced up and down the crowded streets of Broadway. They wound in and out of the maze of traffic that lined the curb and made the narrow canyon resound with N. Y. U. songs and cheers. After a subway journey to 86th Street, they gathered on the steps of the Hotel Croydon, where the Colgate players were staying and lustily cheered first Colgate and then New York University until sore throats caused them to stop. A visit to a nightclub in the Times Square district rounded out the night for the Commerce Sophs. Doc Nielsen, Professor Herbert Schiffer, Professor Vincent Hopper, and Dean Edward Kilduff were guests at the smoker. The committee in charge of the affair was composed of Sidney Maisel, chair' man: Charles Kleinman, Mathew Fleit, Charles Niles, B. Newman, Norman Segal, Charles Stuart, Lawrence Golinsky, Seymour Schiffman, Joseph Wolf, Victor Rafals, Lester Edelson and George Zisman. 51033 Evening Glass of 1934 HE class of 1934 enjoyed a most successful year. Nleetings were started in early October, and many members of the class present for the first time seemed anxious to get into the swim of class activities. As soon as the class became organized, the social, vigilance, publicity, and dance committees were appointed. The social season was opened with a Thanksgiving Eve dance. Because of the new six year rule, upper and lower Sophomore classes had to combine forces in planning their yearly smoker. The double strength of the Sophs did not, however, prevent the Frosh from trying to break up the smoker. The latter were kept well in hand, and several were captured'--and made to entertain their lordly upperclassmen. The smoker was exceptionally well attended. The features of the evening were addresses by members of the faculty. The last and gala event of the year was the Annual Sophomore Hop. Through the combined efforts of the dance, social, and publicity committees another social hit was scored by the Sophomore Class. This colorful event brought to a close a year, full of activity and work. OFFICERS President f f - A.

Indeed, it seemed to the upperclassmen that 1935 would go to pieces and could not possibly keep up a record of that calibre. This year, however, 1935 has more than justified its own hopes and has exceeded the hopes and wishes of its followers. Mr. Phillip Could, president of the Sophomore Class, conducted our Ameetings in good dispatch and made every active member of 1935 eager to attend. Incidentf ally, the frosh crashed one of our meetings and met with an unexpected reception. Adam Rathgber and Morty Schwartz issued the freshman rules, which were stringently observed by the more timid frosh. 1935 and 1934 this year combined for several social occasions. The Hrst event was the Thanksgiving Eve Dance and Social, which was conducted by Arthur Brill and Ralph Altman. The Smoker, again a combined Sophomore affair, was considered successful except by a few of the unfortunates. Those poor fellows came into contact with flying eggs and loose fists. In fact a number of frosh did not particularly enjoy themselves that night. Ralph Altman, Dave Bush, and Pat Moran are responsible for the success of this affair. OFFICERS PHILIP R.

Verdant as their immediate predecessors, they embarked upon their quest for higher learning. After a hotly contested election, Carl Frucht emerged as the president. He im' mediately assumed his new position and set about organizing the various units of the class. Committees were chosen for the year, dates were determined for the various social functions, and the class began to arise as an organization possessing strength and capability of attaining high achievements. V The members of the class became more intimately acquainted with each other at the Sophomoreflfireshman welcome. Speeches were made by officers of both classes, and a general friendly feeling was established between them. Cn November 25 the class held its first social of the season. It turned out to be a grand success as was evidenced by the requests for another function of a similar nature. Then came the day of days--The Frosh Smoker. The class worked as one big unit, and the consequent results were inevitable. The entertainment, food, music, and speeches were all highly satisfactory. The Frosh Basketball Team, composed of future varsity stars, encountered the Sophs in a closely contested battle. Throughout the entire fray the sportsmanship and power of the teams afforded a great display to the spectators. A dance followed. Came the day of the Frosh Hop, the twentyffourth of April. Strikingly attired in spring wear, the dancers presented a sight rarely beheld. The music and refreshf ments were enjoyed with great enthusiasm by the gathering. Everything functioned smoothly, and the first chapter was written in the annals of the Class of 1934. Great accomplishments were forecast for the remaining years. The Class of '34 had begun its first year with a fine record. . f106'l A spirited and energetic freshman class held a class smoker at the Diana Restaurf ant on 43rd Street, on Decemher 4, 1930. As guests of the class were present Prof fessor Herhert Schiffer, Doc Alfred Nielsen, Professor Vinccnt Hopper. The pref vailing spirit of good feeling was further enhanced hy the humorous anecdotes and stories recounted hy these speakers and also hy the entertainment furnished hy Victor Lombardo of the Village Grove Nut Cluh and Jerry Wzlld. For the second time in the history of the School of Commerce the Frosh Class captured the Soph president and held him captive in an uptown fraternity house, and had him present at their affair. Throughout the whole affair, which received the wholefhearted support of the entire freshman class in the form of a very large turn- out, was noticcahle the air of class spirit and hon camaraderie, signifying the quick assimilation of the memhers of the class with the college life and mannerisms. The smoker was followed hy a snake dance up and down along Broadway. The Frosh were escorted hy a cordon of policemen and they hrightened the already hrilf liant Gay White Way. from Evening Qlreshmen ARGE numbers of scared, awefstruck faces proclaimed the arrival of the Class of 1936. This look of fright soon gave way to an expression of industrious ambition. After elections and appointments the class showed their school spirit by attend' ing their meetings in large groups. Throughout the year the class was wisely counseled. It was largely due to this that the year was so successful. All doubts as to the existence of any life in the Frosh class were violently dis' pelled when the calm of the Sophomore Smoker was rudely shattered on the night of December Srd. A horde of gleelul freshmen burst in and smashed windows, walls, and sophomores. Hastily summoned gendarmes restored peace, whereupon the Frosh silently stole away into the night. On the eve of December 9th, the Frosh class assembled at Hennington Hall, with seven sophomores to provide entertainment. Hot on their trail trooped down the Sophomore class, and a battle followed which almost defied description. At last the Sophs scrambled away in various directions, leaving the victorious frosh in command of the situation. A considerable number of freshmen attended the third annual Wiiiter Frolic, held at Delmonico's, on December 13. On Wediiesdzly evening, December 17, a social was given in 631, with a record crowd. It was truly a gala event. The crowning event of the year was the Spring Frolic at the Hotel MeAlpin, which was attended by practically the entire frosh class. It was a tremendously successful affair and climaxed a colorful, unforgettable year fiosj CLASS OFFICERS President f f Ist ViC6'PT6Sid6Hf 2nd VicefPresic1erIt Treasurer - f Secretary f f Historian f Orator f EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE SID ARDONNY SALVATORE GENTILE JAMES MILLER X flO91 DAVE SHAPIRO 'BERNIE STEINMETZ f f ED GRACE MOE HARTZBAND HAROLD WARSAWER - ED COLLINS f ED WALLEY AL KEHOHLER NAT KLEIN 1 i s W i 5 fuoj 3 , , 'X Q- H -1: sw i?Q5 fQQZ,'5f:if I : -9-:m,,i,,, lS1l5ifff2?f' f Book V .. wa ,..

U. was referred to during last Fall's football season, the team was called The Chickletsf' Not that the boys playing in the Violet jersies were so small, it was just that so many sophomores were on the team. It seemed that every player whose name appeared in the headlines during that Fall campaign had the word sophomore attached to it. ' Those sophomores just about made the N. Y. U. football team for the Fall. After the disappointing 1929'campaign, the boys in the back alleys who decide on who's going to be good and who's going to be had had just about slated the Violet eleven for the bottom of the big heap on top of which the leaders stand. But they changed their minds after N. Y. U. gave Fordham such a whale of a battle, trampled over a strong Carnegie Tech team by the same margin Notre Dame beat the Skibos, provided Georgia a real scare before losing by one point, and outplayed Colgate despite losing by another single tally margin. Those victories which came between, the triumphs scored over Hobart, NVest Virginia Wesleyan, Missouri, Villanova, Georgetown, and Rutgers, in addition to Carnegie, also helped to boost the Violet reputation. When the season closed, they, the great common herd which had gone so com' plctely wrong over the N. Y. U. team, wanted to know how come. And the answer came in the praise given those chicklets. lf ever a team was made by sophomores it was the 1930 N.Y.U. eleven. The whole backfield consisted of sophomores. They were: Bob McNamara, the little fellow who was the big star, jim Tanguay, the big fellow who finally did get going against Colgate, Joe La Mark, a fine quarterbackg Bill lVlcNamara and Jack Mac' Donald, a couple of strong boys who could run. And Mac also could snare those passes and do some classy broken field running. But he was more useful as a blocking back. firm CAPT. ALBERT JERRY NENIECEK GAUDET Left End Back That 1950 N. Y. U. team was a sucf cess, and it was rated at the top of the Eastern heap along with Colgate, Fordham, Army, Holy Cross, and Dartmouth. The feat of seven victories in ten games helped it to that post, but an analysis of the games played really gave N. Y. U. its high position. It generally was agreed that the Violet team possessed a great defense. Figures proved it. Six teams scored on N.Y.U. during the year-West Virginia Wesleyan, Villanova, Fordham, Carnegie Tech, Georgia, and Colgate. Each produced but one touchdown. Only four of these scores came against the varsity. VJ est Virginia Wesleyan put across its touchdown when the third team was in action, and Villanova tallied on the second stringers. Of the touchdowns made against the regulars, Fordham's score was the only one made through the line. And the Maroon was given the ball on the Hvefyard mark at the very start, when Charlie Marshall fumbled on attempting a punt. Carnegie, Georgia, and Colgate each scored on clever pass plays. N.Y.U. made such a fine impression during the season that the boys wanted to know why the team hadn,t made even a better showing. They should have because the Violets possessed a ine, versatile attack in which great passing was mixed with excellent running. f1141 CHARLES SANFORD MARSHALL ROLAND End Back The second year men made themselves comfortable and assumed a rightfatfhome attitude in the very first game against Hof bart, which was taken by a 35-O score. jim Tanguay carried his ZOO pounds right through the Hobart opposition for three touchdowns, Bill McNamara added another, and then young Bob McNamara, in the game as a substitute, dashed 62 yards over the slightly bare greensward for a fifth touchdown. It was one of the longest runs in the East that day. This was the game which confused the spectators. Hobart brought to Ohio Field a team that was trained in Meehan football, Carl Bohren being a Violet disciple Hobart used the N. Y. U. huddle and the N. Y. U. shift, but wore its own jersies. N. Y. U., on the other hand, had a third team in action called the Villanova eleven because it played Notre Dame football. So what the spectators saw was a Violet jersied team playing Notre Dame football and a Hobart outfit playing the N. Y. U. game. It all was quite perplexing. Then came that second game of the year against West Virginia Wesleyan. Those Mountain boys always do manage to bring one star along with them. This time his name was Gip Battles. Everything accomplished by Wesleyan, run, pass, or kick, was attended to personally by Mr. Battles. His efforts included a great 62fyard run for a touchdown at the start of play. The score came with the third stringers in action. 51153 MURPHY CONCANNON GRANT Once the Violet regulars entered the fray, it was all over. Jim Tanguay and Jack MacDonald pulled off a couple of long runs for 16 and 12 yards respectively, and then jim dived over for a score from the fourfyard line. He also made good the extra point, so the Violet was in front, 7 to 6, at the second quarter. It was too close for comfort. ' So Mr. Tanguay added another score in the next period. jim gave a line exhibition of ball carrying in this chapter. He toted that leather 12 times in this quarter alone, pulling off a 43fyard run, a 12fyard dash, two 9fyard gains, one of these producing the touchdown, a seven, a six, a five, and some lesser advances. His total yards gained for the quarter was 93. Throughout the entire contest he advanced 141 markers on 20 carries. Tanguay made his third touchdown in the next quarter, a period which also saw Joe La Mark tearing off a 46fyard romp for a score. In the fourth a Connor to Dunn pass produced the final tally. The Violet completed 10 passes out of 15 for a total gain of 230 markers in this game. Villanova, in the third fray, was a more difficult opponent. The Vxfildcats were the players who figured to give N. Y. U. the acid test. They also were favored to win in some quarters. Harry Stuhldreher had a line, strapping hunch of players on his team, most of them veterans. But the N. Y. U. sophomores didn't mind that much. They didn't even mind the loss of Jim Tanguay, who was out with an injury. That really was a break for the Violet because it gave Bob McNan1ara his chance. V And young Bob made himself solid with everybody except the Villanova outfit. The score was 20 to 6. But the game really was a close tilt won by N. Y. U. solely because of one of the greatest kicking exhibitions ever given by a college player. Bob McNamara was the exhibitionist. 51161 Bob averaged exactly 40 yards on each kick, but he placed them so well that the Villanova safety did not carry the ball back at all, not even for a yard. One kick travelled 65 yardsg another went for 50. All of his boots put Villanova on the defensiveg the Wildcats were either placed in the shadows of their own goal or far over on one side of the Held, from where they were unable to start their running attack. These kicks also led directly to all of the N. Y. U. scores. Joe La Mark made the first on a 19fyard romp in the opening period. He also scored the second by dashing 37 yards through the line. The final tally was made by Bob McNamara on a short plunge in the third quarter. The Missouri Tigers, coming up next, were very tame. They had no attack and no defenseg the Tigers were just a toothless menagerie of old cats with claws worn to a very dull edge. N. Y. U. won before the start, but a game had to be played, and so the Violets rolled up a 38 to 0 score for the third straight triumph over the Missouri bunch. jim Tanguay again did most of the N. Y. U. scoringg he made three touchdowns. Bob McNamara also did some fine playing. He made one touchdowng Bill McNamara and joe La Mark scored the others. Steady marches down the field featured. The live sophomores starred in the backfield. Bob lvIcNamara pulled off the longest gain of the day when he dashed over the Yankee Stadium turf for 18 yards. So it was the steady Violet drive which won. It netted 311 yards in gains on rushes. That victory brought two undefeated teams against each other when the Violet clashed headon with the Maroon from Fordham. And that was a real crash. It was the old, old story of the irresistible force up against the immovable body. But N. Y. U. moved, ever so slightly. l GREENBLATT J. LA MARK DUNNE f 117 1 R. MCNAMARA TANGUAY W, MCNAMARA It moved at the very beginning of the game when, on fourth down, Charlie Marshall was called back for a punt. Chick Meehan, as he later stated, had called Marshall back because he was an experienced player who would be less likely to juggle the ball than such newcomers as Bob McNamara or jim Tanguay. But Marshall unexpectedly fumbled so that a Fordham player recovered the ball on the fivefyard line. The only touchdown of the game came on the very next play. But those sophomores showed what they were made of when they settled down after that to give Fordham a stiff ight. Vw' e should not have blamed them had they blown up after that unfortunate breakg more experienced players have done that on many similar occasions. f11S1 In this game the Violet line really proved its qualities. No one ever expected it to match that great Fordham line, drive for drive, tackle for tackle. But it did. This was the game which also uncovered Mike Firstenherg and Ernie Vavra This pair did some great playing all through the second half as reserves for George Chalmers and Dick Murphy, who were hurt. All were wondering after that heartbreaking Fordham defeat just how well those sophomores would hold up. But the Fordham tilt really made the team. aims' BELLA P. MCNAMARA MARKER I 119 1 Carnegie Tech, a really good Carnegie Tech with an almost completely veteran team, was the next foe. The game was played in Pittsburgh. Here it was that those sophomores bounded right back, with Firstenberg and Vavra doing regular duty, to give the Skibos a fine lacing. The score was 20 to 7. An alert Violet team played through that Carnegie Tech fray. N. Y. U. didn't get the breaks against Fordham, but they got them and took advantage of them in this game. joe La Mark made the ilrst break by intercepting a pass and turning it into a Violet touchdown. The second score also came on a break. Ross Grant, the mighty atom, made this one by the simple process of blocking a punt. That gave N. Y. U. the ball on the Carnegie 2Ofyard line. A score came in four plays, one of them a llfyard sortic by Bob lVfcNamara. Joe La Mark made the touchdown. F1201 This tilt again saw Bob McNamara doing some great playing. Young Bob, as usual, gave a real exhibition of kicking. He also made a hairfraising 42fyard run for the touchdown that clinched the game. His run came in the fourth period, when Carnegie still had a chance to win. The Georgia game was another heartfbreaker. The Crackers won this tilt, by 7 to 6. That was just about the margin of superiority in favor of the team which earlier had conquered Yale. Georgia was slightly better, but N. Y. U. should have won that game. N. Y. U. was outdistanced by Georgia as far as yardage gained on runs and passes was concerned, but only a misstep kept our team from a victory. The Violet, although it was outrushed by the Southerners through the first half, was in front, 6 to O. Joe Hugret made the touchdown, receiving a perfectly executed pass play from joe La lvfarlc. fizij LEARNED VAVRA ARONSTEIN Georgia came right back to press the Violet goal line, but they couldn't tally until the third period, when they went into the lead on an equally good forward pass. This was a complicated triple pass with Herb Malfett, that great end, on the receiving end. Chandler's goal for the extra point was the winner for Georgia. Jim Tanguay was sitting on the bench through all this actiong he was sent into action late in the fourth quarter, as N. Y. U. tried desperately to win. That was some try. Tanguay tossed eight passes. Five were completed. He also made a line ninefyard run. l122j These passes carried N. Y. U. from deep in its own territory to the Georgia goal line. One pass, which netted 15' yards, would have resulted in a touchdown, but Tanguay stumbled. He stumbled, but the play was a spot pass, and Tanguay tossed the ball to Nemecek. But that stumble gave a Georgia player time to cover Nemecek, who was tackled after he snared the ball. Had Tanguay been able to throw immedif atcly, Nemecek would have scored the winning touchdown. 51231 Revenge comes sweet, when it comes. It did against Georgetown. The Violet players never did forget that Georgetown victory of 1928, a victory which came on a fumble and a long run by Ken Provincial, who had scooped up the loose ball. The 1930 fray between these schools also came on a wet dayg it was very wet, and the field was really a lake. Georgetown outplayed N. Y. U., but it lost, 2 to 0. The defeat came on a technicality when Scalzi stepped out of bounds in attempting to kick out of danger from his own goal line. It was an automatic safety for N. Y. U. Georgetown outrushed N. Y. U., but fumbles Cost it the game. The Hilltoppers made nine misplays, six of which were recovered by the Violet team. Cx Bordeau alone made six fumbles. All, it seemed, came at inopportune moments, when Georgetown was pressing for a touchdown with the Violet deep in its own territory. It rained passes in the next game, which was against Rutgers. The final score was 33 to 0. That score represented a triple victory for N. Y. U. It gave the Violet the game. It also was the biggest score rolled up against Rutgers, and it was the first time that fine Scarlet offense was stopped short of a touchdown. N. Y. U. took the play out of Rutgers' hands by some great passing. Starting with that touchdown pass on first down right after the kickoff, N. Y. U. was heaving the ball all afternoon, completing 19 out of 31 attempted passes. Jim Tanguay gave a great exhibition of heaving in this tiltg it was a fine sight. And so did Jack Grossman, the Rutgers boy who can do more tricks with a football than, perhaps, any other gridder in the East. Passes led to four of the five Violet touchdowns. They gained a total of 199 yards for N. Y. U. The Violet also advanced 362 on rushing. f124:I That final game, the charity fray with Colgate, saw N. Y. U. reaching its peak. As the day was cold, the fans responded poorly, and only 20,000 attended the tilt. But they saw one of the greatest games of the year. N. Y. U. was better on that day than a great Colgate team, even if it did lose by a score of 7 to 6. Again it was a break that put the Violet behind at the very start of play. joe La Mark fumbled, and Colgate grabbed the ball in N. Y. U. territory. Three Colgate running plays failed, and then on fourth down Les Hart heaved the ball into the air towards the goal line. Everybody knew Colgate was going to throw a pass, everybody but the players on the field. Somebody forgot to cover jack Orsi, as he was standing over the goal lineg he gathered thatpigskin into his arms for the touchdown. Len Macaluso made good the extra point, which eventually proved to be the winning margin. It was a hard trail for the Violet after that, Macaluso was living up to his reputation as a great plunger. He tore through the line for short gain after short gain, but when it came to advancing when a touchdown seemed imminent, the Violet defense stiffened and stopped even the great lvlacaluso. In the closing half the game was all N. Y. U. Finally in the fourth period came the rejuvenation of jim Tanguay, the boy who was going to be so great but who fell somewhere by the wayside. But Tanguay didnt like something that Macaluso said to him. So in that fourth period he gave as great an exhibition as was ever seen all year. 51251 He tore through the line for two yardsg he made four, then six, then three, eleven, one, twelve. He gained and gained, ln between he threw passes, one for 32 yards and another for 16 yards. He alternated hetween passing and running until the hall was on the onefyard line, from where joe La Mark dived over for a touchdown. But jack Qrsi dashed in swiftly to hloek Boh MeNamara's boot for the extra and tying point. The Violet had made a mighty hut losing effort. N261 And that's the group of players who made the 1930 football season successful, even with the scarcity of veteran material. With most of these players coming hack for the 1931 campaign, the Violet team may he a greater one even than the 1928 eleven C . Only three front line men will be missing for the coming campaign. They are Captain Jerry Nemecek, Harry Schneider and Charlie Marshall. These are the sole regulars departing. Marshall shared his wing post with Joe Hugret. Every member of the hackheld and the rest of the forwards, will he coming hack for at least one more season, and they will he augmented hy as fine a crop of freshmen players as a coach could want. tml Z 7U rn G O 7-7 U O '11 E 3 ffl rn 3' U7 O Z .

HCHICKN MEEHAN, Head Coach Assistants MORTIMER STAROBIN AL DE MEOLO CHARLES VYE LEO V. COLLINS STAFFORD CONNOR JACK CONNOR ARTHUR H. ROBERTS JACK WEINHEIMER f129J Qlreshman Qjiootball E THE showing made by the Violet cubs during the 1930 season can be used as a criterion, John 'LChick Meehan need not worry any too much about replacements for the vacancies caused by the graduation of such luminaries as Jerry Nemecek, Harry Schneider, Charles Marshall, and Albert Gaudet. Under the watchful eyes of our own Archie Roberts, prospective stars such as Bill Abbe, Nat Grossman, Johnny White, Harry Temple, Basilio Marchi, and Pete Zaremba led the team to what may be termed a successful season. The defeat of Bellefonte Academy by the impressive score of 27 to 7 was one of the notable performances of the 1930 season. The other opponents who fell before the onslaught of the Baby Violet were St. johns Prep., Eastman Academy, Mac' kenzie Prep., Vermont Academy, and Rutgers Erosh. The victory over St. John's Prep. snapped a twofyear winning streak of the team from Danvers, Mass. The only setbacks suffered by Archie Roberts' proteges were administered by Dean Academy, as a result of a pass during the closing minutes of a hardffought, scoreless struggle, and by Fordham Erosh in a postfseason charity game for the benefit of the unemployed. Fordham's victory was clean cut to the tune of 27 to O. The future varsity managed to compile a total of 129 points to their opponents' 49. This record is not a bad one for a team coached primarily in defensive tactics. A bright future, is in store for those men whose names have already been mentioned as well as for the team itself. In fact it is possible that 'LChick Meehan may uncover another Ken Strong and Ed. Hill combination, which proved so successful a few years ago in placing New York University in the football limelight. ARTHUR ROBERTS, '29C FnEsHMAN COACH H301 Qasketball CAPTAIN JERRY NEMECER AND MANAGER MURRAY HORN 5 132 1 iBc1Sketball SPCRT year never does pass without New York University turning out at least one team that is a constant riddle. Coach Howard Cann's basketball outfit was the peculiar team this season. Nobody could figure out that team, perhaps not even the players themselves. And the Violet quintet acted that way from the very first day of the season. They won their first five games, an impressive stunt always, making them appear to be a really good team in the eyes of everyone but those who saw N. Y. U. in action. In short, N. Y. U. did not look very good while they were winning those five tilts from Lafayette, Stevens Institute, Toronto, Yale and Rutgers. Then, in their sixth game, Pittsburgh came along to hand the University Heighters a fine 40 to 22 lacing, but, believe it or not, our boys actually looked better while they were absorbing that beating, than in previous games. The rest of the season was more perplexing than ever. The Violet lost to Columbia, but it bounced right back to play some fine basketball and handily beat a Villanova outfit which previously gave Manhattan a great battle. The team which the Jaspers defeated by 25 to 24, were easy 39 to 21 victims of a smoothly working N. Y, U. outfit. That score indicated a Violet victory over Manhattan on the next Monday, in the charity games at Madison Square Carden. But our five flopped right back into mediocre basketball form to lose, 1644. Nor did Cann's boys look very good while they were licking Georgetown and XVashington and Lee in successive tilts. The approach of that long series against Metropolitan opposition-St. John's, Manhattan fagainj, Fordham and City College-indicated a black period for N. Y. U. You could have received as much as S5 for every single bill you had, if you were crazy enough to want to bet on N. Y. U. to beat St. John's 51331 wr BK Huzaifr Ni-.miictiiig Lifififr But tli11t's what tlic Violet live did.

He was the high scorer with 13 points, and he held his man in check. He went on a rampage and, with the other hoys feeding him the hall, N.Y.U. defeated an outfit which is without douht the hest team in the East. Sain Siegel and Lou Weriier played excellently at their forward herths. Both did some fine cutting in to steal the hall on the tapoff, even when Joe Hugret failed to outjump Marty Begovich. Siegel also adopted hockey tactics, hy doing some fine poke checking to hreak up St. john's easy going passing game. Hugret, at center, got the tap more often than the great Begovich did and he also held his opponent fairly well in check. Banks, at guard-you already know what he did. Finally, there was Captain Jerry Nemccek. jerry was right in there. He stole the hall from the hackhoard time after time and he used his height to perfect advantage hy intercepting St. johns passes. That one game was our season. The rest of the campaign was a dismal one. We finished with a record of nine games won to six lost. Five of those six defeats came against Metropolitan teams. Manhattan heat us twice, Columhia, Fordham and City College one each. And, of all things, our sole Metropolitan victory was scored over the hest team of them all, St. johns Manhattan heat us the week after N.Y.U. stopped St. johns It was the same old story. N.Y.U. was coming hack to its normal form. Its passing again was wild and the shooting wilder still. Against Fordham, N.Y.U. improved somewhat, hut it couldn't win. The score was 27 to 26. Fordham, which was not so good at the start of the campaign, was playing a fine game against N.Y.U. Then, in that finale against City College, there's only two things to he said ahout our team as it played in that game: The Violet was terrible and the score was 29 to 24. 51353 Freshman Basketball HE greatest Violet freshman basketball team on record last s:ason passed and shot itself to undefeated glory and the Metropolitaii championship in fourteen contests played against the strongest college and high school aggregations in the district. By its habitual ease in trouncfng teams boasting long winning streaks, the sensational contingent coached by Arthur Roberts, former Varsity star, was also generally accepted as the team in all Eastern college competition with the best claim to the mythical Eastern Championship among first-'year quintets. Ceaeh Roberts had an unusual wealth of material at the beginning of the season from which to choose his hrst five players. .lim Lancaster, Hagan Anderson, and John LaBarbera were all-scholastic competitors from the metropolitan area, and Chink Halton reported from Chicago. It was not long before Roberts had these players working alternately with Aloe Lefft, Phil Rosen and Aaron Liebowitz who will be valuable players on Coach Howard Cann's varsity next Fall. Against Saunders, lvlaekenzie, Jefferson, Bron::fUnion Y, M. C. A., Stuyvesant, High School of Commerce, Highland Park Y. M. C. A., the lillnd Regiment Armory, and in two games against Yonkers, the team developed a puzzling and fastfmoving offense and an airtight defense, which were used effectively in the encounters with the neighboring college fives. St. johns, Manhattan, and City College junior Varsity had extended their win' ning streaks to sixteen, fifteen and sixteen games, respectively. before being decisively set back by the Violet Cubs in bitterly waged struggles. Fordham had been defeated twice, but offered the stiifest opposition of any team played. Columbia was not on the schedule, but jefferson, Saunders and Stuyvesant, losers to our frosh, had trimmed the Lions. Coach Archie Roberts deserves a world of praise and credit for the way he skillfully handled the team in the various important games, and for his allowing all players on the squad an equal chance to show their ability. fizei Qgaseball , v., w .N CQPCAPTAINS BURTON HOFFMAN AND ALBERT Cl.-XIQDET AND COACH VJILLIAM V. MCCARTHY fl381 A wwf fBaSebalZ EW YORK UNIVERSITY sponsored a mighty strong baseball team in its 1930 diamond campaign. It was a Hghting outfit and, as such, became known as one of the outstanding teams in the East. More than a little dis' tinction came in the form of a record of fifteen victories out of 21 games with an average of 7:14. Not many N. Y. U. teams have compiled so high an average. If ever Coach McCarthy had a fighting team, it was this season. The West Pointers needed fourteen innings to beat usg then we turned around to trim Colgate in another fourteen inning game. The team did some tall hustling, in another tilt, to stop a strong Georgetown bunch, with a tenfgame winning streak. N. Y. U. put a corking hurling corps on the field. In Bill Clyde, Beryl Follet, and Gus Schmotzer we had a crack pitching trio. RosyfCheeked Bill received his first setback at the hands of Fordham after winning nine straight games, over a period of two years. Eollet turned in his best game of the season against Rutgers when he fanned ten men. Schmotzer did some splendid pitching to shut out the Manhattan men. The team started by capturing the first four games, bogged down a bit in the middle, but finished strong to win the last four tilts. Outstanding sluggers were missing from this year's team. But the boys did some good hitting, at times. During the entire season they drove across 136 runs, with an average of close to eight per game. Fred Kastner, Bill Clyde, and Tony Avia were among those who pounded out homers. f139j As further claim to recognition, the University Heights outiit presented a iine keystone pair in Captain Warren lviayell and Jim Bergen. They were about the best combination in the East. Together they made up a smooth pair and they blanketed their area perfectly. The splendid manner in which the team closed its 1930 campaign brought many smiles to Bill McCarthy's face. They won their last four games, finishing up by SCHMOTZER MAYEL1. GAUDET li 140 j Lossnn KASTNEB FLYNN beating Fordham before a holiday crowd of 3500. This victory was the first in two years over the Rams. It was a spectacular and thrilling game, the team boom' ing away for four runs in a ninth inning rally that won out. L1411 Qireshmcm iBaSeball NDER the careful tutelage of Coach Arthur Roberts, the freshman baseball team finished a most successful season by winning seven games, losing only two and fighting to a deadlock in two more in a schedule of eleven games. The highlights of the season were the victories over the Manhattan and City College nines by 9-'S and 6ff4 margins respectively. Another strong college repref sentative was held to a 5-5 tie score when the Violet engaged the Yale junior Varsity stars at New Haven. Other games with St. Johns, Fordham, and Columbia were postponed because of wet grounds. When the schedules of the neighboring colleges were too well filled to assure a playfoff of the delayed meetings, the strongest high school contenders in the city were met. In two of these games the freshmen lost to George Washington High and to Peekskill Military Academy, while Richmond Hill held the yearlings to a onefrun tie score. All the other high school clubs were easily disposed of and against Roosevelt, Erasmus Hall, High School of Commerce, Concordia Prep, and Newton, a total of 47 runs crossed the plate to only twelve for the opposition, with Roosevelt taking the worst punishment-17-4. Rudolph Herzog and John Symanzyk were capable performers on the mound and are expected to divide the pitching honors for Varsity Coach Bill McCarthy in their sophomore year. The fielding ability of Samuel Levinson won praise from Coach Roberts as did the heavy hitting of Jack McDonald, an outfielder. ll4J,I Erack Ass'T COACH JOSEPH HICKEY, CAPT. JOHN TRACHY AND COACH EMU. VON ELLING f144j CG'raclz CACH Emil Von Elling may well be proud of the showing made by the New York University track team of 1930. Under his able tutelage such stars as Sol Furth, Harry Schneider, Dave Myers, Joe Hickey, and Hal Lefft per' formed to good advantage. The team as a whole also deserves commendation for the splendid cofoperation which it has shown throughout the past season. The season started off with a bang at Philadelphia with the annual Penn Relay competition. Although the wearers of the Violet were not able to capture any first places, they made a rather creditable showing for their Hrst appearance of the season. Captain Sol Furth continued his steady performances of previous years by placing second in the broad jump to Ed Hamm, of Georgia Tech., who established a new carnival record of 25 ft. 4M inches. Others who scored for New York were Smith, fourth in the shot put, and Schneider third in the discuss. The relay teams managed to obtain fourth place in the two mile championships and third in the 480 yd. shuttle hurdle relay, as well as second in the four mile championships. Besides the showing of the varsity, the freshman relay team placed third in their event. The dual track season opened officially with the invasion of Georgetown on May 3. Capturing 10 of the 15 first places, we managed to send them back to Washington on the short end of a 97458 score. Clean sweeps were made in five events. As usual Sol Furth was the outstanding star of the meet with a total of 15' points as a result of iirst places in the broad jump, 120 yd. hurdles, and 220 yd. low hurdles. Schneider broke the home field record in the discus with a heave of 143 ft. 11 in. I1451 Hicicry FURTH SCHNEIDER The following week Von Elling's charges Went to Hamilton and tripped the boys from Colgate to the tune of 71 U3 to 54 'Zf3. They had a tough time in doing it. In fact they were trailing until late in the meet when Furth and Schneider turned in clean sweeps in the hroad jump and shot put. Four college records were broken by Colgate athletesg Stollwerck in the low hurdles, Whitney in the 440, Drake in the halffmile, and Macaluso in the discus. f146j May 17, saw the invasion of the boys from the banks of the old Raritan. It was the second time during the season that New York University played the part of host, but the team failed miserably from the social point of view. The sonsof Rutgers did not seem to have a very enjoyable visit. They were swamped by the score of 87 U12 to 38 7f12. Incidentally it was the final home appearance of the season for the Violet. Hal Lefft was the high scorer of the meet with nine points, taking first place in the high hurdles, second in the running broad jump, and third in the 100 yd. dash. Harry Schneider broke his own record in the discuss throw. Army came next. The cadets played the part of hosts this time, and for the second time in five years they went down to defeat. Sol Furth was easily the out- standing star of the Held day at West Point, capturing the 120 yd. high hurdles, the 220 yd. low hurdles, and the broad jump. Dave Myers broke all existing local records with the javelin, throwing it 206 ft. 9 in. This meet closed a most satisf fying season. GEORGE SPITZ, '34 Holder of World Indoor Record for the High jump 51473 Indoor Track HE indoor track season which practically came to a close with the I. C. A. A. A. A. championships was a notable one for New York University. Cur Violetfclad athletes-varsity, freshmen and ineligiblessecaused quite a stir in A. A. U. competition all through the Winter.' Outstanding in the Violet cause were George Spitz, Ira Singer and Frank Nordell, all three of whom could not represent our school in regular college com' petition. Spitz was a freshman, Singer a transfer student, and Nordell another first year man. Spitz accounted for the outstanding feat of the season when he jumped 6 feet 7 inches in the Millrose games, beating Harold Osborne and the world's indoor record. That performance won for Spitz the special Rodman Wanamaker trophy for being the outstanding competitor in the meet. Singer went through the entire W'inter running up an imposing string of sprint victories, while Nordell did some fine middle distance running. All three figure to wear N. Y. U. varsity colors next year. The varsity, in the meantime, went through some successful campaigns. With' out scoring a single first place victory, N. Y. U, was strong enough to place fourth in the I. C. A. A. A. A. meet with 12 points. Our growing strength in field events was indicated by the fact that nine of our points were scored with the weights. Mortimer Reznick, a newcomer to Violet track, heaved the 35flb. weight 52 feet M inches for third place and three tallies. In the 16flb. shot put, Charlie Jones and Harry Schneider placed second and fourth. jones tossed the iron ball 47 feet inches. Schneider's heave mea' sured 46 feet SM inches, Bernie Krosney's fourth in the 7Ofyard dash and Jimmy Maloney's fifth in the mile completed the Violet scoring. The outstanding N. Y. U. performance in this meet, however, failed to net Coach Emil Von Elling's charges a single point. This was John Trachy's great quarter' mile leg in the mile relay. Trachy, put far behind by a mixup in passing the stick along, almost put N. Y. U. into the finals by closing in as much as fifty yards. Our John was unofficially clocked in 48 3X5 seconds for his leg. It was a great try and John received a great hand from the crowd. N. Y. U. picked up numerous prizes during the Winter season. The Violet retained its Metropolitan crown and it won the American Legion and Brooklyn College meets. N. Y. U. also tied for third in the team score of the National A. A. U. championships. The season was quite a fruitful one, and with a trio like Spitz, Singer and Nordell coming up, N. Y. U. can look forward to even greater success next year. H481 Varsity Cross-Country HE 1930 cross-country season began on October 11. While the Meehanmen were busy trouncing Villanova at the Yankee Stadium, the violetfclad hill and dalers were not exactly idle. Under the able tutelage of Coach Emil Von Elling, they also succeeded in winning a victory by the most convincing score of 15 to 40. Led by Marvin Demler and Edward Cooke, who finished together, the New York University boys took the first five places for a clean sweep. The runners from the Raritan were next to fall by the wayside. This time it was Nat Lerner and Marviii Demler, trotting over the finish line together in 28:32, who led the N. Y. U. team to a 21-34 triumph over the harriers of Rutgers. The fact that they traversed a fivefmile course accounts for the fast time. This meet marked the second group run victory of the season. The ive representatives for New York University managed to fill the lirst seven places. The well known Trek to Tech did not seem to have any effect on Von Elling's charges. The Carnegie Institute of Technology was thc second foe to go down in a double defeat before the onslaught of the Violet. This time Nat Lerner and George Barker led the parade over the picturesque Schenley Park course. The seven New York Harriers finished within the 'first eight places and almost missed another perfect score. However, a score of 18 to 47 is not one to be ashamed of. Marvin Demler and Ed. Cooke arrived in sixth and seventh places on the heels of Sam Grodman and jim Maloney. Sam Kestenbaum just managed to lead the remaining Scots to the tape. 41491 The last of the season's dual meets disclosed a most unusual condition. Five abreast, the New York University harriers trotted across the finish line in 32:09 and administered a 15 to 40 defeat to the hill and dalers from Union College. Nat Lerner, George Barker, Sam Grodman, Marvin Demler, and James Maloney presented their coach with a fourth consecutive victory and an undefeated year in dual competitions. The most impressive fact about this spectacular finish was that the nearest Union runner was some 250 yards to the rear of the flying violets. A grand climax was presented in the form of the Metropolitan Intercollegiate Crossfcountry Championships, and the undefeated Violet team came through with flying colors. Nat Lerner and George Barker again emulated the Siamese twins and were clocked at 30:58, which was, incidentally, the fastest time of the year over the Van Courtlandt Park course. jim Maloney, Sam Grodman, and Ed. Cooke finished within the first six to give N. Y. U. the team title. The other team mates who finished well up in the list were Marvin Demler, Sam Kestenbaum, and Leo Mothner. Sixteen educational institutions were represented in the I. C. A. A. A. A. Cross' country competition. Of course, the title would be too much to expect from Barker, Lerner Eff Co. Von Elling's charges, however, continued their brilliant performances of the season by taking a fourth place in the hnal standing of the teams. The Violet team showed its consistency by Hnishing well ahead of the other Metropolitan colleges. George Barker's performance especially demands praise. He finished fifth, just behind the celebrated Paul Rekers of Penn State, whose team captured the title. Maloney, Lerner, and Cooke were the next of the Violet runners to break the tape, finishing in that order. And so ended one of the most successful seasons ever enjoyed by a Violet crossf country team. Full praise should be extended to every member of the team as well as to Coach Emil Von Elling. risoi Cflfinor Sports Cdiencing Y concentrating his attention on the work of the freshman fencers in the 1930 season, Coach julio Martinez Costello had experienced duelists under his direcf tion in the 1931 campaign. In the first six matches of the season the sophof more stars were responsible for the defeat of Wittenberg College, Boston University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, while three duels were lost by close scores to Yale, Harvard and Princeton. Three more matches were to be engaged with Colgate, Columbia and Pennsylvania before play started in the National Intercollegiate Tournament at the Hotel Astor. Coach Costello regarded these matches as potential victories because the improvement of the team in the last few meetings was two hundred per cent. Costello also expected the team and individual competitors to be on the cork strip in the final round of the Intercollegiates. The freshmen with whom Coach Costello worked with especial care last year are Harold Picket, Louis Russo and Henry Gibson. These three swordsmen, together with Walter Grautoff were the mainstays of this year's season and won the majority of their duels.

In duel matches Coach Gerald B. Emerson's team won twelve and lost but one. The State Intercollegiate meet was an all N. Y. U. affair with Swaybill winning the singles title from Harte in four sets. Paired in the doubles, these mainstays won the championship by defeating Peckoif and Pusatrari, of Canisius. Duel matches, in which Palmer Seeley, Sidney Berger, Sidney Seligson, and Leo Bottare also competed, were won from Holy Cross, Pennsylvania, Stevens, Yale, Washington and Lee, Boston University, Rutgers, Army, Villanova, Colgate, City College, and the alumni. Harvard was the only successful opponent of the Violet. It won, 4-2, though our players were favored. Stanley Harte lost his only match of the season. Sidney Seligson lost under a heavy volley of forehand and hackhand drives after he had won the first set, and reached set point in the second. A fitting climax to the successful season was the startling victory of Harte and Swayhill over Francis Hunter and partner in the National Tournament. fissj Boxing N almost completely inexperienced New York University boxing team was handicapped considerably during its season because of that lack of seasoned performers. Graduation took most of last year's stars from the team and the amateur ranks absorbed one or two more. Among those who left college boxing for the amateurs was Yustin Sirutis. Sirutis, a year ago, carried on the Violet tradition for turning out star heavyweights, a tradition started by the late Al Lassman and carried on by Len Grant. Sirutis also won the intercollegiate title last year. This Wiiuter, in the amateurs, Sirutis has continued to win regularly. In the meantime, the Violet team has been stumbling through its schedule. It won the opening meet of the season, from City College, by in to QM. But Army shoved N. Y. U. down to its Hrst defeat right after that and Syracuse and West Virginia were others to beat Coach Fred John's outfit. A junior varsity team also was put into action by N. Y. U., but it did not meet with much success either. Harry Slomowitz and Bill McKeon were the sole regulars back in action this season. Slomowitz, again putting up that wading front, won With some regularity, but he received scant support from the others. fis-41 LQCFOSS6 OACH ALBERT DRISCOLL started the lacrosse season with a mediocre supply of material, but with the aid of Captain Jack Degan he rounded out a surprising team which finally won ten and lost only three games. It was the best N. Y. U. team turned out in years. ' Victories were taken from Lafayette, Stevens, Washington, Union, Lehigh, New York Lacrosse Club, City College and 101st Cavalry Regiment team. City College and the Regiment teams were beaten twice in home and home games. Rutgers, the Army, and the Crescent Athletic Club teams succeeded in driving the Brisotti coached team into their own territory long enough to score enough goals to eke out victories. In victory or defeat the playing of Captain Degan, Theodore Rosen, Leo Kelly, Sam Roth, Joseph Shacter, and Daniel Meyerson was outstanding. Degan has been chosen head coach at City College, and Rosen was picked on the AllfAmerican team to play the Oshawa team in Toronto, Canada. Shacter and Meyerson were chosen cofcaptains for the following season. f15Sl wimming F IT were not for the severe handicaps caused by graduation and academic difficulties, which prevented nine men from competing, the swimming team would have enjoyed one of the most successful seasons in many years. Prominent among the stars lost to the team through graduation were: Capt. Sig Meyers, Claude Barrere, Harold Nisselson, and Murray N atbony. However, despite these facts, the season may be considered a successful one at that. Among those who walked the plank as a result of the superior stroking of the Violet natators were: Rider College, Johns Hopkins, Union College, Lafayette, Cornell, Manhattan, and Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Of these, Cornell provided the stiffest competition of the season. The outcome was uncertain until the final minutes when the big Red team from Ithaca succumbed to the tune of 33 to 26. Two notable events of the season came in the form of broken records. John Buckley, who has been a consistent pointfwinner, established a new record of 1:5 5 U5 for the 15Ofyard backstroke: and Murray Cittenstein lowered the previous mark of 6:OO1!5 to 5:58 2f5 for the 440. Other Violet pointfwinners which have been quite consistent were: Capt. Harold Frazier, Bill Mcghane, Al Bicunas, Len Greenthal, Murray Slifkin, Paul Bromer, Nathan, Tuckman, and Singer. 51563 Gvlf AST season's golf team was the first to represent New York University in collegiate competition since 1927. At that time the sport was dropped from our Calendar of athletic events because of lack of interest in the student body. The popularity of the game increased rapidly in the last three years, so an informal team was organized with the consent of Albert B. Nixon, Graduate Manager of Athletics. Much time was spent in playing individual matches among the many candidates for the team, and only three matches were played during the season. Rutgers was too strong for the inexperienced team and walked off the course with an 8-1 victory. Two City teams, St. John's College and Fordham University were the other opponents. The Violet won both of these meets, and by the same score, Sfl. TEAM J. SANFORD GILLIN f f f f Captain FRANK SULLIVAN f f Manager 09301 T.

The title meet closed a gymnastic season for N. Y. U., a season in which the Violet dropped only two meets out of six. Princeton and Navy were the sole teams to score over N. Y. U. N. Y. U. beat M. I. T., Dartmouth and Army, and it tied with Temple. Herman Witzig, national titleholder and Qlympic competitor, again did most of the scoring for N. Y. U. Witzig was good for at least ten points in every meet during the season. His best performance was made against Army and Temple, in a triangular meet scored on the basis of dual meets. Witzig Won the horizontal bar, side horse, parallel bar and ring events. He was first in both meets. Against Army he also placed second in the tumbling, he was third in this event against Temple. In all, Witzig scored 23 of N. Y. U.'s 33 points in the Army meet and 21 out of 27 against Temple. The scores were N. Y. U. 33, Army 21. The meet with Temple ended in a 27f27 deadlock.

This seasons array of stars has been the best she has coached.

Out Of a schedule of ten games played, seven were won, one ended in a tic, and two were lost. The losses resulted in the Manhattanville and Connecticut Aggie games, but were evened up by return game victories. . Hunter was the first Opponent and the neighborhood rivals were jinxed 2 goals to 1. Manhattanville was one Of the strongest elevens On the schedule and Coach Esther FOley's team suifered a 4f0 defeat, which was revenged in a return match by a 1-0 score. Adelphi was swamped in the next encounter mainly because Of the playing of Helen Schroeder, Dorothy Welch, and Etta Seymans, who were responf sible for sending the ball into the net eight times while holding the victims scoreless. The Beaver game ended in a 2f2 deadlock and remaining contests were won from Connecticut Aggies, William and Mary, Scudder, and Fieldston School. The team will be greatly depleted at graduation when Sylvia Stern, Lillian Dembitz, Hilda Goldfider, Sally Spar and Dot Welch receive their degrees.

Rose Jaboolian, captain and manager, and Minerva Blumberg were the veterans from the past season, and although the play was centered around these experienced stars, they were too closely Watched by opposing cagers. When these girls were guarded closely the Whole attack failed, and defeats were to be anticipated. Ten games were on the schedule and in the first seven played, five were lost to William and Mary, Upsula, St. Joseph, Connecticut Aggies, and Savage. Hopes brightened for the cofed hoopftossers when they trounced Scudder 253 and bafiled Long Island University 3215, but starting with the Upsula tilt, hopes diminished as each succeeding game was dropped by bigger margins than the previous one. Rose Jaboolian and Mildred Stevenson are the only members of the present outfit to receive their degree, and a greatly improved team will play under the tutef lage of Coach Esther Foley.

' Student Qouncil HE Council this year continued to advance the fine work of its predecessors by accomplishing many new tasks and carrying out the set order of its routine in excellent style. The Council is the governing body of the nonfscholastic activities of the Day Division of the School of Commerce. It consists of the President, VicefPresident, and Secretary of the Day Organization, the Presidents of the four classes, two representatives from the Senior class, one from the Junior class, the President of the League of Women, a representative from the Daily News, and the Advisor to the Freshman Class. Instead of using the Orthophonic Radio and Victrola for class socials the Council sanctioned the use of orchestras for these affairs. This plan resulted in larger attendance. Working handfinfhand with the Evening Council, the Day Council supported three very successful school affairs. The third annual Winter Frolic was held at the Hotel Delmonico on Saturday evening, December 13. More than ZOO couples attended the Frolic. The Junior Prom, under the chairmanship of the class president, Herbert Silver' man, was held on March 14 at the Ambassador Hotel. Harold Stern and his Orchestra supplied the music for the dinnerfdance, which was considered as the most enjoyable in the history of Commerce. g Likewise, the Senior Hop was also a great success. It was under the chairman- ship of Gus Varetsky, president of the Senior class. The Council has worked hard to stimulate a desire among the students to attend Day Organization meetings. They have been well rewarded for their eiforts. l:1661 'u At a dinner held in November in conjunction with the Evening Council, the Councilmen were awarded their keys. They were presented with their shingles later at a Day Organization meeting. In order to decide on certain important topics many combined meetings of the Day and Evening Councils were held. These meetings proved profitable in solving some very weighty problems. The Seniors and Juniors continued to use the Sixth floor smoker, and the Sophomores and Freshmen used the Ninth floor smoker. Admission was granted by class cards only. The Council this year has been an efficient and smooth organization and has done much to improve student relations at the School of Commerce.

Instead of having the meetings of a stereotyped and set nature as formerly the Organization opened them to the student body so that any student who desired could voice his opinions on school matters at these meetings. At the beginning of each meeting the minutes of the previous one were read by the secretary. This innovation proved successful in stimulating interest in the student body. lvlany entertaining meetings were held during the course of the year. Dean Maddeii delivered the Vxfelcoming Speech to the new freshmen. Another meeting was devoted to fraternities and sororities. At this meeting Prof. Schiffer, in charge of fraternities, and Miss Rcutimann, in charge of sororities, were the feature speakers. At the Christmas meeting Doc Neilsen acted as Santa Claus and distributed gifts to prominent members of the faculty and student body. Still another meeting was given over to the Bureau of Public Information. Before the Fordham game a pep rally was held. This proved successful in creating student interest in the football classic of the season. Almost the entire team and the coaching staff attended this meeting. At successive meetings tappings were held for Alpha Phi Sigma, junior honorary society, and Sphinx, Senior honorary society. Cificers of Day Organization: President. H.

It is composed of the Presidents and Treaf surers of each class, one representative from the Senior Class, and the Presif dent and Treasurer of the Wall Street Students' Organization. With the completion of this year the present Council brings to an end an ad' ministration characterized by a spirit of cooperation and progressiveness. The Council began the year with a distinct departure from past practices by holding its first meeting in the preceding Spring. As a result the oiiicers were given the full summerfvacation period in which to make plans for the coming year. At the first meeting Dean Collins, acting as chairman, introduced Professor Morris as new adviser to the Council. Election of officers followed, Charles Wetheral being elected President and Miles A. Lea, Secretary. The responsibility rests with the President of the Council for appointing two men to positions requiring tact and leadership. These positions are Freshman Adviser and Sophomore Adviser. They are as necessary to the successful organization and conf tinued progress of the lower classes as the Faculty Adviser is to the Council. Len Laufer, who was appointed Adviser to the Freshman Class and Morris Bernstein, Adviser to the Sophomore Class, are to be congratulated on the splendid manner in which they carried out their duties. Much of the success of the major social aifairs of the season was due to the close cooperation between the Night and Day Councils. The All Commerce Winter Frolic held in December at Delmonico's, the Junior Prom, and the Senior Ball, held in March at the Hotel Ambassador and Pierre's, were without a doubt the most success- ful ever held. fivol The Council promoted the first successful all-class rally ever sponsored by the Evening Division. It was held in the North Study Hall on the eve of the Georgia football game and was so well attended that plans were immediately made to hold more later on in the year. - The combined Council Banquet held in November was an event to be remembered by the Councilmen for many a day. Held at The Charles Restaurant and attended by Dean Collins, Prof. Morris and Miss Claire Cavanaugh, it was sure to be an en' joyable event. After the dinner, Dean Collins awarded the Councilmen their keys and shingles. Owing to the untiring efforts of Philip Gould the Council was able to bring about the first InterfClaSS Basketball Tournament in the history of Evening school. After much investigation the Council was able to procure the modern and com' plete bulletin board now on display in the lower halls. Hence the student body is able to keep in closer touch with the Council. With all these and many other accomplishments to its credit the Student Council has indeed made a name for itself and set a standard which others will find hard to e ual. q Such progress has been made possible only by earnest effort on the part of the Councilmen and complete harmony under the leadership of President Wetheral and the friendly and companionable counsel of John S. Morris, Council Adviser.

Early in the school year a social program was planned by the officers and execuf tive committee of the Organization. The following major committee appointments were made by President Lea: Entertainment, Edward XV. Churchg Basketball Manf ager, Harold W. MacDowellg Publicity, Herbert J. H. Royg Educational Lectures, George Hellawell. Each year the Organization prides itself on turning out a first rate basketball team. Much of the success of this year was due to the splendid instruction of Coach Mcf Gilvray coupled with the unified effort of the members of the squad. The team is to be congratulated on the manner in which it completed the heavy schedule arranged by Manager MacDowell. Some of the more important games schef duled were: Rutgers College of Pharmacyg john Marshall Collegeg St. John's jr. Varsityg St. Francis College freshmeng Dana Collegeg Manhattan College freshmen: Stevens Tech., and the Newark College of Engineering. Sweaters were awarded to the team at a dance held in their honor. Stan Smith, Artie Pearson and Cliff Malloy, veterans of last season, and John Bell, Jim De Bene' detto, Irving Terlin, Moe Satlow, Robert Babour, Dave Vogel, Bill Hughes, new men of this season, received sweaters. One of the most unusual affairs in the history of the Organization was held early in January when the members took over the Black Cat in the Village. This dance, given in typical Village style was such a success that plans were immediately made to follow it up with another some time during the next term. fini The Annual Dinner Dance held late in May, was the culmination of a highly successful year. At this function shingles were awarded to the officers and members of the Executive Committee in recognition of their work. The success enjoyed by this year's Organization was due to the earnest efforts of the Officers of the Organization and their hearty cofoperation under the leadership of President Miles A. Lea. The members and oiiicers wish to express their gratitude to Professor Lloyd E. Dewey for his splendid advice and guidance in fostering the spirit of loyalty to our Alma Mater.

It stands for high ideals and a very tangible help and guidance among the women students. The wellfattended hifmonthly meet' ings of the Commerce League in room 726 attest to the fact that this organization enjoys the hearty cooperation of its memhers and friends. V With the third week of school came the Freshman Tea sponsored hy the Big Sister Committee. At this tea each freshman girl met the hig sister assigned to her and under her care made many pleasant contacts and lasting friendships. Beginning on Novemher 7th, and during each month thereafter, the Commerce League held an Open House Card Party in room 726, from 3 to 6 o'clock. Each Commerce cofed was permitted to ask one Commerce hoy to the party. A welcome addition to the customary annual Faculty Tea was made in the persons of the wives of the Faculty on Novemher 19. The Glee Cluh entertainment greatly added to the enjoyment of this very successful affair. The traditional C. L. O. W. luncheon was given in the .lumhle Shop on Novemher 25. Mrs. Rathhone and Miss Crandell were the guests of honor. The annual Christmas Dance held on Decemher 3, in room 726 was an unqualif lied success. A new note in this social was the music of an orchestra engaged for the occasion. The memhers of the League took part in the drive for raising money for the unemployed. f174l The Christmas Party for the children from the Judson Memorial Center was the scene of great jollity. The children enjoyed the games and refreshments and were given the dolls which had been dressed for them. The dolls were on informal exhibif tion in Miss Reutiman's office prior to their distribution. The members of the Student Organization were treated to an entertainment given by the C. L. O. W., on December IO. Spirituals and jazz songs, blackfface and other sketches comprised the varied program. Miss Rathbone of the faculty of Wellesley College presented a series of lectures on December 4, 11, and 19, on the subject of Personal and Social Hygiene. The inf terest and educational value of Miss Rathbone's talks was well evidenced by the en' thusiastic reception of her audience. The Commerce League plans to raise its portion for the annual scnolarship by a theatre party to be conducted by Miss Dorothy Rubens. The League resumed its activities in the second term by giving the Freshman Tea to welcome the incoming freshmen. Cpen House continued to entertain the members each month. On the whole, the League enjoyed a most happy and busy program under Miss Esta Bloomiield's able leadership. l OFFICERS OF C. L. O. XV.

Miss Reutiman gave an instructive talk on School Organizations. The secondfterm Freshmen will also be tendered a welcoming tea. November 19, was the date of the Term Dance. It was given in room 726 and drew a very large attendance. Cider and doughnuts were served and contributed largely to the enjoyment. Instead of the Christmas Party that is given every year for the children of the neighborhood, the League decided to make up baskets of food for needy families. The members of the League responded liberally, and a great assortment of food was contrif buted. The baskets were distributed by the local police in their various precincts. Next term the members of the Evening League are looking forward to a series of talks to be given by Miss Rathbone, who, it will be remembered, gave a similar series to the Day League. These lectures will be an innovation in the history of the League since it has never before sponsored such an activity. The dates for these talks have so been arranged that all the members of the League may be able to attend. The tentative plans of the League for raising the S25 for the annual scholarship include a raffle and bridge party. rival Evening fDivisi0n L. CQ. TU.

The president, vicefpresident, delegate of each league, and the Council officers make up the body proper of the Council. The Council aids in solving the principle problems of each league, which other' wise functions as a separate unit. The raising of S100 for the annual scholarship is the foremost activity on the program of the Council. Each year one of the schools has a possible claimant for the scholarship in the person of a senior girl with a high scholastic record. Last year the scholarship was awarded to Esta Bloomfield, this year's president of Commerce L, O. W. The funds last year were raised by a theatre party. All the leagues attended the play chosen, which was Earl Carroll's Sketch Book. This activity was in charge of Miss Helen Becker. This year the Council plans to raise the S100 by dividing the total in four parts corresponding to the four leagues, each of which will be responsible for its share. The buffet suppers which were given at the regular meetings of the League Counf cil on November 6, and December 14, greatly added to the enjoyment of its members. The supper on December 6, was given by the Student Activities Office and that on December 14, by the Education division. At the last meeting the serious business to be transacted was the election of the oflicers for the present school year. 51783 OFFICERS President f VicefPresident f Tveasurer f f - Corresponding Secretary f Delegate f f f MEMBERS MARION DRAISIN ESTA BLOOMFIELD GLADYS FRANKLIN Ii-XNNAH WEINSTEIN SARA SIMON FACULTY ADVISERS MARGARET LYNCH BETTY PITTNER SELMA WOOLFSON KATHERINE BERGER DOROTHY RUBENS EMILY BURNETT SALLY DEH.-XHANTY MISS GLAOYS REUTIMAN MRS.

PARKER BETTIE MCSTEA l 'Dramatic Society HE DRAMATIC SCCIETY in New York University is one of the oldest prof ductivc organizations in the downftown schools. It is maintained for those who are interested in the theatre or any of its phases. It is the workshop where one may take part in any kind of work done in the theatre. The Dramatic Society has always believed that a student will receive more out of his work in the society if he is placed on his own responsibility and initiative. Therefore, the D. S. follows the practice of exercising control over the members in an advisory capacity only. Any member is entitled to act in plays, direct them, write them for production in the society, and design costumes and scenery. Three separate groups of plays are offered yearly. First, the Dramatic Society presents one act plays at its weekly meetings held on Thursday and Friday from one to two. Second, D. S. presents at least two fullflength undergraduate productions annually. Third, The Washington Square College Players, a repertory group, is made up of D. S. members who, after considerable training, are organized along professional lines. They present four fullflength plays each year, two of which are Shakespeare's Comedy of Errors and As You Like It. The Dramatic Society is further organized for service to evening students. A regular meeting is held every Wednesday evening in the Playhouse, Room 703. This group is exactly patterned after the day division group. A one act play is pref sented at every meeting. Prominent members of the theatrical profession address and read to the Dramatic Society at the weekly meetings. Principal among the guests of the past have been the late Frank Bacon, Louis Calvert, Walter Hampden, Laura Hope Crewes, Dudley Digges, Laurette Taylor, Margaret Wycherly, Zelda Sears, Glenn Anders, Martin Flavin, Maurice Schwartz, Walter Prichard Eaton, Dorothy Gish, and Louis Wolheim. Lisol The Dramatic Society has presented the following plays: Poets All, The Arbi- trator, 'LWhose Money, Whirl Wind, Angel Intrudesf' A Question of Prine ciple, Words and Music, Half an Hour, Arabesque, The Man Upstairs, and Where the Cross Is Made. Prizes are awarded annually to Dramatic Society members who have done most for the Organization. The Tau Delta Phi prize was awarded last year to Sidney Nathanson. The First President Award wasigiven tO John Knapp. Richard Ceough gave a cup to the undergraduate who did the most work for the Washington Square College Players. This cup was awarded to Robert Rossen. Chancellor Brown awards D. S. letters annually to those members who have made dramatics their chief collegiate activity throughout their college course. Seven awards were made last year. DRAMATIC SOCIETY EXECUTIVE COUNCIL 19304931 MORRIS SOROKA -ff-f President ALICE HERZ f f Secretary and Costume Designer STAGE MANAGERS ROBERT ROSSEN JOHN K.

Founded in 1915 by ten Catholic students in the School of Commerce, the Newman Club now embraces every division of the University. The Newman Club was organized primarily to promote the spiritual welfare of Catholic students, to further their educational interests, and to perpetuate friend' ships made during university life. All Catholic students in the University are elegible for active membership. Honorary membership is frequently conferred on distinguished Catholic laymen. At each of the monthly meetings held at the Hotel Pennsylvania, prominent clergymen and laymen address the club. This year the members were fortunate in hearing Dr. Lester B. Donahue, an authority on Canon Law, Rev. Gregory Seigi. Ph. D., chaplin of Ivianhattan College, professor of Philosophy and Political Science at Fordham University, and a member of the Peace Council at Hagueg and Mr. Charles Barry, Secretary of Washington Square College. On the Sunday following each monthly meeting, members receive Communion in a body at the Church of St. Francis of Assisi. Other important religious activities were the men's retreat in March, at the Passionists' Monastery of the Immaculate Conception, Jamaica, Long Island, and the women's retreat held in April at the Cenacle of St. Regis on Riverside Drive. The club year was terminated on Mothers Day with Corporate Communion at St. Peter's Church followed with breakfast at the Hotel McAlpiii. V fiszj This year Rev. Edwards R. Ivloore, Ph. D., Director of Social Action in the New York Archdiocese, Observed his tenth anniversary as chaplin of the club. As spiritual director and as a friend, Dr. Moore is loved and revered by every Newf manite who has listened to his fatherly council or received his friendly help. The club's social calendar consisted Of an informal fall dance at the Hotel Park Central, a formal winter dance at the Hotel Park Lane, a skating and 'toboggan party at the New York University Camp, Lake Sebago, ll. spring dance at the Hotel Com' niodore, and one Or two bridges and teas. The Newman Club at New York University is a member of the Federation of College Catholic Clubs, an international Organization. As a part Of the New York Province of the Federation, it was prominently represented at the various events Of the New York Province Convention held january 9, 10 and 11. The convention program consisted Of a formal dance at the Hotel Plaza: a business meeting and tea at the Casa Italianag Corporate Communion at a Mass celebrated at St. Patricks Cathedral, followed by breakfast at the Hotel Commodore at which the Rev. Dr. Fulton Shean of Washington University and the Hon. Nicholas Murray Butler, Presif dent of Columbia University, were the guests of honor and principal speakersg and closing exercises at the Church of the Paulist Fathers. The New York Province Of Newman Clubs is to be host this year to the annuai conference of the Federation Of College Catholic Clubs. Much serious thought will be devoted to current problems affecting Catholic students, and papers will be read by prominent educators and philosophers.

They believed that a small group of young men meeting regularly could discuss serious topics and problems of life and more especially of contemporary events with benefit and intellectual satisfaction for all. These men were R. H. Pierce, john Fast, Nelson Pearce, John Hornfeldt, De Witt Reynolds and Williaiii Meyerhoif. To insure wise guidance they asked Dr. Gerald E. Se Boyar to be faculty advisor. The beliefs of these founders have been on trial since that date, and at the close of the sixth year the club declares itself successful. Because of its intimate nature the membership of the club has remained small with an average of ten to fifteen men. Any Commerce man of satisfactory scholastic standing, who is approved by the active members, may join until the maximum of twenty is reached. The material that has been found of interest to Mentor has included current news, magazine articles, lectures, books and plays. Interest has centered on different fields at different times. Books and book criticism were paramount for one period while for the past two years the members have shown an increasing appetite for the legitimate stage and more recently the opera. Restriction of activity or discussion has been spurnedg while Dr. Se Boyar has always been at hand to prevent any ill advised argument. Stimulation from any source, mental meanderings followed freely and eagerly, coolly logical reasoning and unrestrained speculation, Mentor is like that. 51341 At the close of each year the club has turned from mental and verbal excitement to the grossest pleasure Of a banquet. For this One evening an air of grandeur is In jected into the usual simple proceedings-of the group. Old friendships are renewed and former arguments continued through the attendance Of Mentor Alumni We look forward to another stimulating year in Mentor.

Now four years old, it boasts of members in all divisions of the University. Besides being an allfUniversity club, the Finance Forum has gained recognition in the business world. It has numbered among its guest speakers many of the most prominent men in the world of Business and Finance. Prominent among these guestfspeakers at the regular meetings were: john M. Fitzgerald, former President of the Vxfestern Maryland Railroad, and at present Assistant Chairman of the Association of Presidents of Eastern Railroads, who spoke on 'kSome Economic Aspects of Railroads. Carl Snyder, General Statistician of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, whose 'subject was The Federal Reserve System. Honorable Mark Graves, Tax Commissioner of the State of New York, spoke on New York State Tax Department. Matthew S. Sloan, President of the New York Edison Company, who presented Public Utilities. Honorable joseph K. Moyer, Chairman of the Special Advisory Committee of the Department of Internal Revenue, Washingtoin, D. C., who spoke on The Organ' ization of the Bureau of Internal Revenue and the Functions of the Special Advisory Committee. Dr. Leland Rex Robinson, President of the Second International Securities Cor' poration, the largest investment trust in the United Founders Corp. group, who addressed the club on Investment Trusts in a Bear Market. 51863 W. Alton jones, President of National Electric Light Association and VicefPresif dent of Henry L. Doherty Co., who spoke on 'lThe Electric Light lndustry. At the heginning of last semester the Finance Forum started a new procedure in holding meetings. After the foothall games the nieinhers met in a reserved part of the Hotel Alhert diningfroom for dinner, after which mcmhers of the faculty addressed the gathering. This plan made it possihle for memhcrs to hecome acquainted with the faculty as well as with one another. Among the faculty guestfspeakers at the dinnerfmeetings were Professor A. NV. Taylor, Dean of the Graduate School of Business Administration and Director of the Wzrll Street Division: Professor W. Spahr, Administrative Chairman of the Department of Economics, and Assistant Professor of Finance T. C. Jones. At the end of the foothall season another plan was tried and proved very success' ful. Meetiiigs were held twice a month on Thursday evenings in the North Study Hall of the School of Commerce. At one meeting a guestfspeaker was present, and at the other hifmonthly meeting some memher who was successful in husiness spoke hefore the cluh on that phase of Finance at which he was working. Among the memherfspeakers were Frank Pitt, who spoke on The SafefKeeping Department of an lnvestment Bankfl and Harry Silver, who spoke on 'lThe Duties of a Margiii Clerk. To promote further friendship among its mernhers, the Finance Forum has adopted a pin, which acts as an introduction of one memher to another. The friend' ship resulting from these means continues to flourish after graduation through the Alumni of the Finance Forum or through the Young Bankers and Financiers Assof eiation of America, the honorary Finance organization The Finance Forum is highly indehted to john T. Madden, Dean of the School of Commerceg to Associate Professor of Finance jules I. Bogen: to the members of the Department of Banking and Financeg to the memhers of the Department of Economics, and to the memhers of other departments, whose cooperation meant so much in reaching the gratifying success that the Finance Forum has attained. fl871 Triad League HE Triad League was founded in 1914. Mr. M. Harry Longe '16 was the originator of the idea and became the first president. Others in the group of founders were Douglas Taylor, john Anderson and George Buenger. Prof fessor George Burton Hotchkiss acted in the capacity of faculty advisor to the group. The object was to promote the interests of Advertising and Marketing generally, and in New York University in particular, to supplement the courses of Advertising and Marketing by personal contacts with those interested in these professions and by addresses given by practical business men and to visit the successfully established printing, engraving and advertising companies and plants in the city. The League originated during the time of the truth in advertising move- ment. Truth was considcred too narrow an ideal so two others were added,-Art and Science. fThe name also contained a punning suggestion that the members were beginners, tryfad. J The Creed of Triad was thereby summed up in the slogan: Art, Science and Truth in Advertising. The professional and fraternal spirit through which Triad came into being grows stronger each year. The members realized then as now, that Art in Advertising means just what Art meant to Da Vincig that Science means the same in advertising as it meant to Archimedes and that Truth is always good business as well as a moral obligation. fissi The organization is strictly a New York University Club and always holds high the Violet Banner. The League at present numbers over three hundred members. Meetings are held fortnightly and men who have achieved success in the profession, many of them old Triaders, discuss varied phases of their field. ' Because of the cementing of these friendships and the upholding of these ideals which make for better men in advertising, Triad renders a service which makes it more than a college club.

DRURY, M.C.S. 51891 Foreign Grade Club HE Foreign Trade Club of New York University was organized in the School of Commerce during the month of Ivlarch, nineteen hundred and thirty. The purposes of this organization are to provide an opportunity for its members to labor most effectively for their mutual benefit in becoming properly eduf cated and trained for foreign trade as a vocation: and, secondly, to assist one another to foreign trade employment and advancement. The Foreign Trade Club is a focal point for contacts between students, faculty, practical business men and government officials. The luncheons and business meetings of the Foreign Trade Club offer the proper setting for creating valuable contacts which will facilitate in the placing of students after graduation. Membership is granted to those who have studied not less than twelve points of foreign trade courses successfully, and who show themselves worthy of membership in this cooperative and progressive organization. At present, there are seventyffive memf bers in the Club. An outstanding activity of the organization is the annual banquet of the Foreign Trade Club held in the month of April of each year. The annual dinner last year was held on board the S.S. Teno of the Chilean S.S. Company, and was dedicated to greater amity and trade between Chile and the United States. The guests of honor were: Luis E. FeliufH, Consul General of Chile to the United Statesg Dean G. Rowland Collins, School of Commerce, Accounts and Finance of New York Universityg F. A. Pirie, VicefPresident of All America Cables: f 1903 H. G. Brock, VicefPresident of Guaranty Trust Companyg A. F. di Valvasone, Direcf tor of Chilean Information Bureau, James F. Hodgson, Commercial Attache, and IVI. Eaton, General Trailic Manager of Pan American Airways. The Foreign Trade Club, as an organization, is recognized both by New York University and the Department of Commerce of the United States of America.

The accomplishment can be set forth in a picture-the New York University band of some eighty pieces handsomely uniformed, splendidly trained, standing on the gridiron, facing the cavernous north stands where thousands of university undergrads, alumni and friends, heads bared, are singing the alma mater hymn in volume and tuneful harmony which you do not hear any more in the East. Now let it be said that when a band and a crowd of men can dominate the Polo Grounds, can make you forget all about the Giants, peanuts, popcorn, soft drinks and all the other elements of a big league atmosphere that invests this arena like a mist, some great feat has been performed. It was wholesome and compelling especially in its presumable influence upon that great floating mass of population who own no collegiate affiliation and have attached themselves to New York University. In the early days you caught palpable manifestations of the spirit of a typical baseball crowd at games of this university in the city ball parks. Not so now. The whole mass has donned a collegiate investiture and the phenomenon is of social significance. Lawrence Perry, Evening Sun.

No deiinite action was taken, however, until November, 1913, at which time five members of the Faculty met and pledged them' selves to further the interests of a society to be called Delta Mu Delta, admission to which would be based on scholarship and character, and the object of which would be to promote higher scholarship in university education for business by recognizing and rewarding scholastic attainment in this field. These or- ganizers were Dean Ioseph French Johnson fHarvardj, Prof -fessor Iohn R, Wildman fNew York Universityj, Professor George Burton Hotchkiss fYalej, Professor Charles W. Cerstenf berg fNew York Universityj, and Professor Edward Jones Kildud fYaleJ. On November 18, 1913, the five organizers submitted the plan of the society to the whole Faculty of the School, and to the Chancellor of the University. It received unanimous and un- qualihed approval. The organizers thereupon proceeded to com' plete the work of organization with the result that on February 21, 1914, at the Hotel Brevoort, the Hrst induction ceremony was held. At this time, thirtyftwo members of the senior class were taken into the Society, as were also Chancellor Elmer Ellsworth Brown and Mr. John VV:-xnamaker. - 51981 MARTHA ARRAWY MILDRED YARKAXYY Jl'LIL'S BACHMAN FRANCIS P.

Some two hundred tired Commercites then adjourned to a neighboring Childs to enjoy griddle cakes until the hreak of dawn. The work of the 1930 committee was worthy of commendation and gives evidence of the fact that the Winter Frolic is developing into one of the really fine social tradif tions in Commerce.

The promenade at mid-night was the most impressive part of the evening. Led by Herbert Silverman, President of the Junior Class accompanied by Miss Roslyn Moscowitz, Raymond J.

At intervals during the dance, all the lights were extinguished, and the couples danced on while two colored spotflights flickered here and there among them.

Sometimes during the numerous bouts with irate seniors or exacting faculty advisors, we have wondered whether it was all worth while. Ours has been the problem not alone of expressing New York University in a handful of scenes and activities, but also of delineating the best that our school can give to the group of students which compose it. Because we have had that ideal ours has not, we trust, been a hopeless task. It would be easy to describe the rumble of trucks on University Placeg the clang of steel or the nearby riveting from a rising skyscraper. It would be easy to tell about the panfhandlers, the pretzel vendors, or the bothersome bOotfblacks who inhabit our square. But we have tried to do more than to portray the commonplace things in the everyday life which surrounds us. Vv'e have tried to tell of the feeling that catches us as we cross the square at dusk toward school and a myriad of lights stare at us from ten thousand windows and do their best to disturb the silence enveloping those buildings. We have tried to catch some of that spirit which invaded those foot' ball pep meetings in the north study hall when Doc Neilsen addressed us, or that indescribable something which causes us to catch our breath as eleven violet clad warriors fall into the military shift on the green turf of the stadium. We have had an ideal, and we hope that our more cynical colleagues will overlook the fact that we have had to create this spirit in many places where it has been sadly lacking. As a parting beau geste, we present you with the 1931 Commerce Violet. rzosj MANAGING BOARD ROBERT JOHN COLLINS, EditorfinfChief SAMUEL GROSSMAN ffffff Literary Editor HOW.ARD B.

SCHLITZER ALBERT A. SCHUCKRA Edztorfm'Cl1ief Circulation Manager lTl'l the prestige of seventeen years behind it, Meclle5', the allfuniversity comic magazine, made its initial appearance for the fall term early in Qctober. As in former years, this first issue, The Opening Number, was awaited with anticipation by the student body. The November number, following college tradif tions, was devoted exclusively to football, excellent ar-t and literary features served to make the issue one to be long remembered. A play on Communism under thc title of the Red Number was substituted for the conventional Christmas issue. Then burst the bomb which for a time disturbed the peace and quiet of the university campus. With the January issue, Medley proclaimed a change in its former policy! For years a successful college magazine of the fudge type, the Medley became overnight a prototype of the New 'Yorker XVise ones shook their heads. Such a venture would prove a failure, they thought. They gave as a reason that students were incapable of writing this higher form of humor. But the first of the new series dispelled all doubts and fears. The new Medley scored an instant hit with a noticeable increase in circulation. The remaining four issues of the current year followed the same policy as the january number, and the different style became more popular each month. A large measure of the success of the Nfedley was due to the capable staff in charge of the magazine. The managing board consisted of Bernard J. Schlitzer, editorfinfchiefg Stanley J. Harte, managing editor, Howard Vxfesson, business managerg Josef Lombardo, art editor, Albert A. Schuckra, circulation manager, Leo Ruben' stein, dramatic editor, and Stanley Kramer, cinema editor. Mr. Uma Stanley of the faculty supervised the magazine and was largely responsible for the successful year which the Medley enjoyed. 52093 'The fDczily UXQZLUS ONCEIVED in 1886 as The University, the present New York University Daily News bears little resemblance to the 12 page news magazine that was its precursor. Modesty and historic directness the first paper editorialized: The magazine is to appear promptly at intervals of three weeks. The editors will interest alike the undergraduates, the Alumni, and their friends, the Faculty, and all who take an interest in the literature and affairs in general of the college world. It will widely depart from the too general practice of publishing in college papers grave, prosy, learned essays that are read by few and enjoyed by none. It will aim to give clean, bright, fresh college news, breezy literature, carefully selected reports of their colleges, accurate and comprehensive reviews and copious Personals. Austin D. Wolfe was the first editor-infehief, and in his first 'LNews he presented a cross section of all the newspapers of the future. The magazine was sold for 15 cents a copy and 51.50 by subscription. Since 1896 the University has been served by similar and gradually improved publications. Once the paper died for a year when financial support was lacking, but the need for a news organ was realized, and a new paper was founded. In the folf lowing years the paper changed its name to The University Item and then to The Triangle, purporting to represent the three corners of the University at University Heights, Medical Center, and Washington Square. On account of the poor transpor- tation facilities that existed between the Heights and the Square, it was not long before the Triangle failed as a University organ. It then became the New Yorker, representing the uptown campus. A few years later, the Washington Square Dealer was inaugurated to inform the Square. Separately these papers worked until 1920, when after three years of negotiation they joined to form the New York Univer- sity Daily News. 51103 Published by and for the student body, with an editorial policy that is essentially University Spirit, the News has completed its thirtyfiifth year and its tenth year under the present name. Through its efforts last year, students were granted ref served seats at Varsity football games, the Heights library and Commons increased their hours when they were available to the public, and the Heights Violet Hut was condemned. A symposium on the value of a college education was published including articles by Edgar Lee Masters, Upton Sinclair, Walter Prichard Eaton, Norman Thomas, and William Green. The Critical Review, the Daily News literary supplement was issued three times during the year, the fourth of its existence, under the supervision of Eugene Canudo, Managing Editor at the Heights. The News is supervised by a managing board of five members, Eugene Parter, Editor, George Zolotar, Managing Editor at the Squareg Eugene Canudo, Managing Editor at the Heightsg Gug Savino, Sports Editorg and A.

Alpha Kappa Psi was founded at New York University and was the first professional fraternity in Commerce. On October 5, 1904, three years after the opening of our School of Commerce, ten members of the classes of 1905 and 1906 perpetuated their friend' ships and ideals ,by organizing the Phi Psi Kappa Fraternity. They named their chapter after Charles Waldo Haskins, first dean of the School. An early move to obtain a charter from the State of New York did not materialize because the chosen name resembled that of another organization. The name was later changed and on May 20, 1905, a charter was granted to the Fraternity bearing the name of Alpha Kappa Psi. Alpha Chapter thrived as a local fraternity on the Square for five years, until in 1910, when Beta Chapter was added at the University of Denver. Conservative expansion, with prudent ref strictions as to educational standards, became a consistent policy. No year has passed since that time without the addition of at least one new chapter, so that today a network of 53 chapters embraces the entire nation. Thirteen alumni chapters are also functioning in many of the larger cities from coast to coast. If214j FRATRES IN COLLEG IO PETER J. CLARK I. FRANCIS R. COLTRIIOIS WILLIAM N. JAHN STEPHEN M.

Through two distinct periods of growth the national organization has expanded to encompass chapters established in Hfty-three universities and colleges. Membership is universally exclusive in the sense that only those students preparing for a business career are eligible. The local Alpha prospered reasonably well during the years pref ceding the World Weir, its house being on the southwest corner of Washington Square, At the outbreak of the war the entire chapter marched to the recruiting station and enlisted to a man. The house, empty, was closed and Alpha lay dormant. Returning to college after being mustered out of the Service, the depleted membership set about to reorganize. Under ire four brothers had gone to the Chapter Eternal. Those who returned set up a bronze tablet to perpetuate their memory: then carried on. A new house was secured, and the second stage in the history of the Alpha began. Delta Sigma Pi has consistently maintained a place in campus activities and is among the leading fraternities of New York University. rzmi FRATRES IN COLLECIO XVILLIAM FRANCIS CORDLTT JOHN JOSEPH FAGAN, JR.

It was the outgrowth of a social club of twelve students known as the Wigwam. The objects of the organization were the advancement of culture and science in business as many of its members were attending the School of Commerce at the university and had ambitions of entering business in the big city. The new local flourished in the hcart of the city until 1915 when along with other fraternities it became the victim of the World War. Inactive since that year, in 1923, the original founders called for a reorf ganization and since that time the fraternity has maintained a house in the vicinity of the school. The flower of the fraternity is the Violet, the same as the uni' versity's, to signify the source of the fraternities creation. The fraternity has always maintained a high record of ideals and ac' complishments, and is well deserving of a prominent place in the Greek letter world. In almost every school in the country you will find one or two organizations of a fraternal nature and yet individual in character which do not desire to occupy the prominent position of a national group. At New York University, Lambda Sigma Phi is that type of organization. f218'l FRATRESIN COLLEGKD 1932 1931 W, RUSSELL FORTH RL'D0LPH HAHN WILLIAM F. LEGHORN LAWRENCE R. CHAMBERS RICHARD P.

Theta Nu Epsilon UPs11.oN UPSILON CHAPTER 7 MORTON STREET, NEW YORK CITY Theta Nu Epsilon was founded in Wesleyan Uni' versity, Middletown, Connecticut, on December 5, 1870, by Hfteen men in the Sophomore class. During its early stages the Society was an exclusive Sophomore organizaf tion. Later on the Society operated as a general fraternity, taking in those who were already members of other fra' ternities. In 1923 the Society abandoned dual member- ship and began operation as a general academic fraternity. The first publication, known as the Sophomore, was suc' ceeded by the Theta Nu Epsilon Quarterly which in turn was supplanted by the Keys in 1920, The affairs of the Society are governed by a Grand Council of Hve members who are elected at the biennial Convention. District government by deputies who are appointed by the Grand Council has also been established. The Upsilon Upsilon Chapter of Theta Nu Epsilon was established at New York University in 1912. The fra' ternity is one of the oldest located at the Square and has been active since its installation. At present the chapter has a membership of seventeen men and a large faculty representation. The chapter house is at 7 Morton Street, New York City. fzzoj FRATRES IN COLLEGIO 1931 THOMAS BOWLER JAMES HANNIEAN ANTHONY DEPFIILLIPS GEORGE M. J.

In 1888 the society was incorporated under the laws of Vermont. Not until 1902, forty-six years after it was founded, would the fraternity recognize petitioning bodies, despite the fact that its constitution provided for nationalization. After the Beta chapter was installed, five years elapsed before another charter was granted. Since that time Theta Chi has expanded steadily though conservatively. With a total of forty-seven chapters, there is not one inactive. Upsilon chapter of Theta Chi was installed at New York Uni' versity on March 23, 1917, culminating many years of diligent work on the part of a group of students. This group was first organized in 1910, consisting primarily of students of Journalism, and was known as the Adelphine Crowd, which later became the local Phi Delta Sigma fraternity in March of 1913. It was due largely to the efforts of the late James Melvin Lee, that the standards of Phi Delta Sigma were raised to the point where it was accepted by Theta Chi. The active chapter of Upsilon now consists of forty members, representing practically all the schools of the University. fzzzi FRATRESIN'COLLEGKD 1931 GEORGE BAYLFY WILLIAM MCKEON HAROLD D-JIDRUP JOI-IN POWERS JOHN W.

The organization was founded at Columbia Uni' versity in 1912 and six of the first seven chapters were located at schools either in New York City or Brooklyn. Since 1919 the fraternity has spread westward and southward with a rapid stride. Not only has the national organization grown stronger, but each chapter has developed into a strong, healthy unit. The purpose of Phi Beta Delta is to inculcate among its membership a finer spirit of loyalty, activity and scholarship toward their Alma Mater, to develop the highest ideals of conduct and to promote a close fraternal bond through means of carefully selected associates. Three years after the founding of the original chapter the Zeta Chapter was founded at New York University. V At that time the schools at the Heights were the chief divisions of the university, but Zeta Chapter began to spread out and at present is drawing men from both the Heights and the Square. This chapter, true to its original purpose, has been active in school affairs and has always maintained the highest rating of integrity and ability. 52243 FRATRES IN COLLEGIO 1931 HARVEY AVEDON IRVING SOMERSTEIN LEO BERNSON ARTHUR A, ZIMMET KERMIT SHAPIRO MATHEW' B.

The main objects and purposes of the organization are to promote good fellowship among persons studying or engaged in foreign serviceg to promote among its members a high conception of the duties of those engaged in foreign service, and to encourage and inspire honor, scholarship, and a lofty purpose in the lives of the members of the fraternity. Beta Chapter of New York University, located in the heart of world commerce and Hnance, is most advantageously situated to develop and carry on the ideals of the fraternity. New York City, the center around which alumni gather from the four corners of the earth, offers exceptional opportunities for the development of invaluable foreign trade contacts and the growth of the Beta Chap' ter of Delta Phi Epsilon. Needless to say, this organization plays an important part in the lives of foreign trade students at New York University. The scope of the influence of Delta Phi Epsilon is made worldfwide through its members who are locted in practi' cally every country of the world. f226l FRATRES IN COLLEGIO 1931 T. R.

Its purposes are to promote friendship, develop character, extend liberal culture, promulgate non-sectarianism, and to advance justice among men. The New York University Chapter of Delta Beta Phi was char' tered in 1920, and has since been an active organization in the uni' versity, particularly with respect to the School of Commerce, Ac' counts, and Finance. The interests of the university and the co' ordination of the members of the fraternity into a strong and active body has been one of its chief airns.

From one little chapter at Syracuse University, it now numbers twenty-nine chapters and about two thousand members, most of whom are of Italian extraction. To begin with, during the year of 1914, a number of students at Syracuse University felt the need of companionship and formed a local fraternity. Aided by a few inspiring members of the faculty they planned activities which soon spread their fame. On October 8, 1930, Alpha Phi Delta completed their fifteenth year of organization as a national organization and were admitted to Senior Membership in the Interfraternity Conference. In 1921 a chapter was formed in the downtown schools but soon the house was moved to the heights campus. This progressed very well and the men took an active interest in all campus activities. The men in the downtown schools, however, felt the need of a separate chapter house, so in 1928 another house was opened to accommodate the large number of students. The national organ' ization then granted the downtown chapter recognition as a separate chapter with the name of Theta Beta. Now N. Y. U. has two distinct chapter houses within the university which gives N. Y. U. the distinction of being the only university that has two Alpha Phi Delta Chapters.

Associated in a mutual understanding, nine men organized what was to become the bedrock of a national organization. The purposes of Lambda Gamma Phi as stated in the Constitution are to foster the abolition of differ' ences between men by means of education, to promote a bond of friendship among the brothers of the chapters, to foster high ethical ideals in the profession of Law and Commerce, and to establish chapters of the fraternity in the various universities and schools of law and commerce. For almost a decade the splendid work and worthy eiforts of Lambda Gamma Phi were observed and commanded the respect and admiration of those associated with scholastic activities and as a result Epsilon Delta Alpha and Lambda Gamma Phi were merged and took the name of the latter organization. A Consolidation Dinner was held at the Great Northern Hotel, New York, March 30, 1930. To have accomplished so much in so short a time is indicative of the fine basic qualities of Lambda Gamma Phi. To foretell the future is rash, but past experiences serve to mirror a brilliant one. fzazi FRATRESIN COLLEGKD GEORGE E. CANTOR H. ZACHARY BERNSTEXN JACK MELNIKOFF DAVID H. GZIBECR JOSEPH N.

Sigma Phi Epsilon NEW YORK GAMMA CHAPTER 9 EAST NINTH STREET Sigma Phi Epsilon was founded at Richmond College, Richmond, Va., in 1901. Originally known as the Saturday Night Club, the name was changed to Sigma Phi Epsilon and chartered under the laws of the State of Virginia in the following year. Due to the shape of the badge and the prevalence of ministerial students among the ranks, the organization at that time was often referred to as the Sacred Hearts. With the expansion of Sigma Phi Epsilon this title became obsolete. Theta Sigma Phi, a local fraternity, was founded in 1923 at the School of Commerce. The ten original founders were com' merce men who felt that there was a place for another social group at the university. In June, 1930, after petitioning for three years, the local fraternity was installed as the New York Gamma chapter of Sigma Phi Epsilon. This was the sixtyfsixth chapter to be added to the list and the first and only chapter in the metropolitan district. At present, Sigma Phi Epsilon is com' posed of men from all of the downtown schools. A house is maintained at 9 East Ninth Street where the majority of the active chapter of fortyfiive men live. f234j FRATRES IN COLLEGIO 1931 THOMAS I. ADDIEGO WALTER F. MERRELL DWIGHT C.

It will he necessary, however, to hrst discuss the history of the local chapter at N. Y. U. In the spring of 1922 a group of Washington Square students organized a local fraternity known as Alpha Psi. Its Hrst meetings were held in the Judson Memorial Church. It was at Hrst composed mainly of Washington Square College men but as it grew, men from the School of Com' merce gained in predominance. In 1925 Alpha Psi applied to the National Fraternity, Delta Alpha Pi and received its charter as Delta Chapter. The National Chapter had its beginning a few years previous at Delaware, Ohio. It is now composed of six chapters: Alpha at Ohio Weslyan Uni' versity, Beta at Ohio State University, Gamma at Purdue Univerf sity, Delta at New York University, Epsilon at Butler University, and Zeta at Illinois University. Delta Alpha Pi is a Junior Na- tional Fraternity. It is composed of Christian men of University standing, but is nonfsectarian. The present Chapter House at New York University is at 18 Charlton Street. f242J FRATRES IN COLLEGIO 1931 ALLAN VAN 1101-'F 1932 CLARENCE BLRRY JESSE R. CORNIaLII's JOHN A.

The fraternity was originally founded in New York City by a group of college men who named the organizaf tion Z. B. T. with no intention of becoming either a Greek let' ter fraternity or a national organization. It was discovered, how' ever, that other students in other colleges had similar ideas and interests and the name Zeta Beta Tau was chosen and a national fraternity founded in December, 1898. At present there are more than thirty active chapters with a membership of four thousand men. The Chapter at New York University is the Gamma Chapter and was founded in 1906 at the Heights. For some years it chose all of its men from the various divisions of the Heights Colleges and later began to initiate men from the Square, and now draws from both sections of the University. Always a popular house on the campus the organization has grown firmly and rapidly with a staunch view to maintaining their ideals and working for a unified national fraternity. The Gamma Chapter owns its own house, located at the Heights. 1:2441 FRATRES IN COLLEGIO SEYMOUR BERNSTEIN MILTON BIRNBAUM SEYMOUR COWIN WILLIAM DASH SANFORD GOODERIEND STANLEY HARTE SAMUEL AROWNOWSKY HEREERT BLUMBERG STANLEY BUTTE MEYER FIRSTENDERG GEORGE GOTTLIEB NATHANIEL GREEN LEONARD GREENTHAL WILLIAM HARRIS MORTON KENDALL WALTER COHEN SAMUEL POLAKOFE DANIEL COWEN 193 1 GEORGE NEWMAN 1932 1933 f245:l MURRAY HORN HAROLD LEFFT HARRY UNTEREORT SAMUEL WEINER RICHARD LILIENSTERN SEYMOUR MANTELL ALVIN LEvY LARRY LIPKOFF DANIEL MEYERSON MAX MORGENTHAU MIKE POLIN THEODORE ROSEN SAMUEL SCHULMAN MILTON WEBER ELI ZIMMERMAN BELMONT GOTTLIED HARRY GROSSMAN PAUL HARWICK 'Uwlet Skull President f VicefPresiderIt - Treasurer f Secretary f Kfember Fraternities.

These two business sororities were spreading nationfwide at this time and meeting each other in schools of commerce all over the country. The competition for chapters was keen and soon the grand officers of each group met in Chicago for the purpose of organizing a national commerce sorority that would include the chapters of both the old sororities. Phi Chi Theta at this time is quite young -slightly more than six years old-but at the present time it has twentyfone collegiate chapters and eight alumnae chapters, The history of the local chapter goes back to 1914 when the original group of girls organized a sorority in the School of Com- merce and named it Sigma Kappa Phi, A few years later, when it became larger, they petitioned for membership in Phi Kappa Epsilon, and, in 1924, with the other chapters of that sorority, they changed their name to Phi Chi Theta and became Beta Chapter. The Chapter embraces both professional and social activities although, in some western universities, Phi Chi Theta is honorary or purely professional. fz4sJ SORORES IN COLLEGIO NATALIA DOANE JUDITH ICE PHOEBE BERCER DOROTHY CH ATTAVVAY ROSE GUNDALL MABELLE JENNINGS ANN KERSIC CLOTILDE DOTZLER 1931 1932 ALICE WALSTER 1933 HELEN NCESSELER HONORARY FACULTY MEMBERS JOHN T.

This, the mother chapter, became inactive when all sororif ties were excluded from that college. With the estabishment of a chapter at the University of Toronto fCanadaj, the sorority became an international organization. There are now a total of 41 active chapters and two inactive chapters. No charter has ever been withdrawn from a chapter. The chief philanthropic work of the organization has been di' rected to the care of crippled children, or underprivileged children. In many of the larger cities clinics have been equipped and main' tained or hospital Wards or beds have been furnished, freshfair cottages have been built, or needy families adopted and cared for. Each chapter, particularly the alumnae groups, interests itself ac' tively in philanthropic work of its own selection in its own com' munity. Nu Chapter was chartered at New York University in 1900 and was the result of the merger of two local sororities, Lambda Sigma Phi and Lambda Phi, the latter having been a local professional law sorority. Nu Chapter now has 30 active members and they maintain a house at 37139 West Eighth Street.

It is obvious that this little sketch cannot hold all the details of the story of the origin and development of Beta Chapter of Phi Delta sorority. In this case the historian must select that which is most important. Phi Delta was organized at New York University, October 25, 1919, as Epsilon Sigma by Effie Dooling, Florence Sullivan, Cath- erine Kirwin, Anne Hulse, Hazel Saunders, Ruth Marsh and Lucy Bryant. October 25 is regarded as the founding date although the name Phi Delta was not chosen until December 7, 1927 when Epsilon Sigma affiliated with Alpha Delta Omicron of New York State Teacher's College at Albany. The objects are to create a friendly spirit among the girls of the institutions represented, to uphold the honor spirit of the institutions, and to develop the abilities of members for most elfective college life. Beta chapter of Phi Delta has maintained a high scholastic record and several of its members have been elected to Phi Beta Kappa, Delta Mu Delta, and Gamma Epsilon Pi. Beta's chapter house is now located at 19 West 8th Street, New York City. fzszj SORORES IN CGLLEGIO RUTH BAISIEUX RIJTH BREITENBACH SALLY DELEHANTY KATHERINE DINGER DOROTHY C.

At the time of the organization of Psi Xi Omega, the University was very small and there was a spirit of friendliness prevailing such as can only exist in a small college where students come into everyday contact with one another. But the founders of the sorority felt the need of some organization that would keep the girls together after school ties were broken, and Psi Xi Omega was founded with this underlying purpose. During the twelve years of the sorority's existence these founders have been constantly interested and have watched its growth and expansion throughout the various schools of the University. They are proud to see that the ideals upon which it was founded are still its outstanding characteristics, and form, as it were, an invisible band to hold its members together. A sorority apartment is maintained at 61 East Ninth Street so that outfofftown members may enjoy pleasant living quarters. Many of the smaller social functions of the sorority, and all of its business meetings are held in these rooms. f254I SORORES IN COLLEGIO 1931 GLADYS DOHERTY MARY MCDERMOTT CATHLEEN QIJINN 1932 IsARIaLLA W'ALTIiR CLAIRE CROSSON jANIa WILMOT MILDRIQD JAMESON EL'IHIzA YOUNG MILDRfiD SHANESSY 1933 ELLANOR BRADLEY RLJTH CARMICHALL RUTH DAVIES ,ANITA GALDIERI GIZRTRUDE GI2IavIzR MARY HAYDEN XYIVIAN INGRAHAM MARJORIE LANSING ALICE MAGILL RUTH MILLER IVIARNIORIE RITTER HERMINA TINBERGRR RUTH TOMPKINS MARION WARD MILDRLD WEBB 52553 The lecture room in the original University building fthe site upon which now stands Washington Square College, then called Philomathean Hall! in which Samuel F.

ARTHUR BUTLER GRAHAM, '05 A President, Alumni Federation of New 'York University F2581 'vm-u xi FEBRUARY is, 1911 my.. is p NEW YORK UNIVERSITY A A L U ' miwsb. if CZ5'he afllumnus AST September the New To-rlq University Alumnus completed a decade of service to the graduates of all the schools and colleges of the University. Prior to the organization in 1920 of the Alumni Federation of New York University, each school and college had its own alumni organization, functioning in' dividually and apart from all the others. But in 1920 when the Alumni Federation was brought into existence, all of the individual alumni associations became supporting members of the Federation, thereby insuring the encouragement of an attitude which saw loyalty as coming Hrst to the University and second to the school or college from which one was graduated. Q The Alumni News of New York University had been published regularly, but it concerned exclusively the University College of Arts and Pure Science and the College of Engineering at the Heights, leaving the rest of the alumni field to sporadic issues of individual alumni association publications. Naturally, the Federation needed a magazine to report those happenings involving the University, its schools and colleges, fa' ltyhgstudents, andtfalumni that are of inf terest to graduate readers. Dr. Charless . Benedict, '8OAgi5nl83M, who had been editor of the Alumni News, consented to continue as editor of the new publication. Under his direction the Alumnus, a monthly magazine, overcame many difficulties and established a ine record. Among those who helped the magazine to succeed were Prof. Edward J. Kildulf, '1'7G, now assistant dean, who was associate editor, as was Thomas J. Lanheady, '1'7. Bernard Lichtenberg, '14, was advertising manager, and Howard F. Langland, '14, was business manager and alumni secretary. In 1925 the Alumnus became a weekly, under the editorship of Prof. H. B. Rath' bone, now chairman of the department of Journalism. The change to a weekly was due largely to the feeling that so great had become the activities of the University and its rapidly increasing alumni body that only a weekly magazine could adequately cover the field. Commerce faculty, alumni, and students all did their part in assisting Prof fessor Rathbone to make the weekly Alumnus successful. 52591 In September, 1929, the Alumnus underwent another transformation, this time to a semifrnonthly. With nine years of experience as a background, the directors of the Federation felt that as a semifmonthly the magazine would do an even better job as news bearer to the alumni. So the Aluninus has gone ahead, trying consistently to improve each year. Commerce faculty, alumni, and students are still doing their bit. Editorial contributors include that perennial and enthusiastic alumnus, Thomas J. Lanheady, and George L. Shieblcr, '26. Benjamin A. Ross, '25, is business manager, as well as general alumni secretary of the Federation. To you who are about to become alumni of New York University we make this suggestion: Affiliate yourself with your alumni association and the Federation, sub' scribe to the Alumnus, and thus count yourself among the supporters of Alma Mater.

MCGEEHAN Courtesy of the New 'York Herald Tribune EW YORK UNIVERSITY started in such a modest way that one of its alumni, Theodore NVinthrop, who put the institution into nction in Cecil Dreemef' called it Chrysalis College. The shrinking violet color came naturally to New York University in the early days of its foundation some ninetyfseven years ago, when the attendance was so exclusive that there were not enough students to fill the classrooms in the building at Washington Square. New York University used to rent rooms to gentlemen and ladies of good repute. But today New York University is scattered all over the city of New York and its enrollment is the second highest in the United States. One irreverent bystander suggests that this astonishing development of the magnihcent butterfly that is the present university from Chrysalis College is clue to the advent of Mr. Chick Meehan and a football team. The Meehan system may have had something to do with it at that. It seems to be written of the colleges in later years, By their football systems you shall know them. The Meehan system as used by New York University is widely and favorably known. But there was a time when Chrysalis College was known for other things of a more practical but less glamorous nature. For instance, a New York University man named Samuel F. B. Morse demon' strated for the first time the telegraph instrument in the lone college building at Washington Square. He received considerably less attention than did Mr. Chick Meehan when he first appeared on the campus of the greater university with tactics that were to put New York University in a prominent position on the football map. There, on the roof of the same old building, in the days when Chrysalis College was so small that it had to take in roomers, was developed the first photograph. Professor Draper, toiling in a little laboratory, made a crude camera with which he photographed his sister. It was developed on the roof of the lone building of Chrysalis College. In the same little old building was Dendeth's Dark Room. This was not a room where photographs were developed. It was the room where Dendeth, the villain of the novel 'LCecil Dreeme, planned and carried out his various villainies. All of this was long ago before the neighborhood of Washington Square became a center of Hobohemia, when that section of New York was staid and exclusive and when young gentlemen of a serious turn of mind studied at Chrysalis College. Elihu Root and other statesmen overhauled their Blackstone in this old building. Without attempting to destroy what is claimed for Mr. Chick Meehan and the superior type of football that is played by New York University today, the violet butterfly of New York University emerged from its Chrysalis some time before Mr. Meehan came down from Syracuse tossing forward passes into the faces of the traditional rivals of New York University. The medical school moved to the vicinity of Bellevue Hospital and the school of veterinary surgeons was added in another section of the city. The building that used to be sublet became inadequate for the increasing enrollment. The main college had to be moved to the buildings on University Heights, the site which inspired the New York University alma mater song, 'LGrim Gray Palisades, certainly a more Htting site for an institution to bear the name of New York University. fzeej The prominent building on the new campus of the greater New York University is the Hall of Fame. At present it does not contain any bust of Mr. Chick Meehan in football helmet and jersey, but the omission probably will be remedied later. It does, however, contain busts of men who belong in the American Pantheon. Near the Hall of Fame is the Fount of Knowledge. This is used for a form of hazing that has been in vogue at New York University for at least thirty years. Every year on Halloween the freshmen are immersed in the Fount of Knowledge whether they seem to need it or not. Even Mr. Meehan's husky first year football men must pass through this ordeal. Athletically, New York University started in a modest way, as became the men whose emblem was the shrinking violet. They played football with Columbia, Union, Rutgers, Williams, R. P. I. and Wesleyan. But with the advent of Mr. Meehan they became important enough in the football way to become involved in a severance of football relations with Columbia University. The violet then seemed hardly appropriate as an emblem and it was suggested that the symbol of the elephant be adopted by the new university as being more typical of the type of football that was being played. Ivlr. Albert Nixon, the graduate manager, after figuring the upkeep of such a mascot, turned that proposition down. The football players of New York University still remain the violets, but the adjective Hviolenti' has been placed before that name by the unanimous vote of their opponents. When they draw cartoonsfof New York University emerging from the chrysalis they mold the chrysalis in the form of a violet colored football. In the days when New York University had nothing much in the way of football players it still had the allfAmerica cheer leader who shook a vigorous violet pennant and led a very effective cheer. This was Reinald Werrenrath, later baritone for the Metropolitan Opera Company. He used to lead on Grim Gray Palisades. Also in the days before the Meehan came, New York University had a Tin Pan Alley that was quite as famous as the other of the Roaring Forties. Mr. Deems Taylor, who wrote the first American grand opera to be played unon the big time, as the boys call it, was a member of the violet musicians. William Le Baron, who went into motion picture work, was known at New York University as a librettist. With Werrenrath singing, Deems Taylor furnishing the music and William Le Baron as gag man, New York Unversity scored with comic operettas. This combination annoyed rival universities no little by parodies on the alma mater songs of the various colleges. But, so the moderns at New York University maintain, Mr. Reinald Werrenrath was only wasting a very good voice on the desert air by cheering for New York University football teams of the days before the Meehan came. As compared with some of the universities of the country, New York University is a comparatively academic infant. Still, in the brief ninetyfseven years of its existence it produced the telegraph instrument, the photograph which was the fore' runner of Greta Garbo, Charlie Chaplin and the others, a forerunner of Rudy Vallee, of Yale, in Reinald Werrenrath, and lastly the Meehan system of intercollegiate football which reached its perfection on the various fields where the violet pennant flies. Judging from the space allotted, the last achievement is the greatest of all, so that the ninetyfseven years of the university that emerged from Chrysalis College have not been in vain. I 267 l Cdffighlights in 'Uiolet Sports IOLETfCLAD competitors, coaches and trainers in the annals of athletics form a basis for unusual stories which are unknown to even the most regular sport followers.

Ernie Vavra is still taking voice culture and hopes some day to become a great singer.-Harry Schneider is also a singer, but is a better violinist. Besides playing the star center position on the Violet eleven, Harry captains the outdoor track team, sings tenor in the glee club, is on the student council and will be a graduate engineer this June.- Val Connolly is the star pianist of the squad with Bob McNamara his nearest competitor.

QYou can lay 100 to 1 on thatj It can't be ascertained by whom since no one shows up the nrst day except a few fastidious accountants. No enlightenment upon the subject can be had from them, as it is a well known fact that an accountant's eyesight is as poor as the proverbial church mouse, therefore rendering his powers of observation null and void. Second Day-Harold Murphy, Sol Galub, Joe Lossee, Tom Addiego, Tom Flynn, and the rest of the racketeers take up their positions behind the tables in the South Study Hall to renew friendships with the old students and to bully the incoming Frosh. The linefup for registration forms outside the hall. This line is hot stuff. Its composition would defy analysis by Dr. Free. It looks like a cross between a First avenue breadfline and one at a Broadway premiere. Ted Shulman is number 79. fWhat is the world coming to when a big shot like Ted has to stand in line?J There is a queer buzz emanating from the line similar to that of a fairy beefhive. The boys and girls are discussing their social achievements of the past summer. Tales are told of the Riviera, Biarritz, Hollywood, and the Orient. A shyster lawyer could cross up the authors of these statements in two shakes of a lamb's tail and lay bare the unadulterated truth-a thrilling summer in a bungalow at Coney Island. Third Day-Fraternity rushers scrutinize the line for material to carry on the timefkilling traditions of the frats. Esta Bloomfield, Helen Beattie's only rival in the Talking Marathon, takes her place in line after a strenuous summer of quilting bees way down East in Maine. Dean Collins barricades the door of his office and supplies his bloodfthirsty oliice boy, Ralph Spano, with a flintlock and two cutlasses as a defense against the onslaughts of the white slip boys. Ted Shulman is reported to be now number 49 in line with conditions indicating that he will be registered after the football season. There is commotion on the third floor. Yonkers Bill McKenzie is carried out by his henchmen, Everett Church, Walter Bass, and Francis Moore, in a raving fit. It suddenly dawned upon him that he had been standing for two hours on a line for subscriptions to the Violet. Fred Feld is number 129. Is Margie Grilant's number 13O? Of course, you dope! More noise from the third floor. Mr. C. H. Sprague faints and can't be revived by water. He overheard a student ask Ivlarketing Head Agnew for permission to drop lntroduction to Art to register for something practical like TEEI. Fifth Day-The vigil is too much for Lilyan Abrams who faints away in the arms of Sam Grossman. Eddie Krasnov, the Iron Chancellor, darts into the line and hides behind Vic Cestone, the Montclair golfer. Dr. SeBoyar rushes by in a state of perspiration with a bundle of sheets to be typed. The Little Chancellor is as slippery as an eel in a barrel of emery when there is work to be done. Mel Brown and Bill Wessel, two tough tomatoes who are reputed to have escaped from the Big House, lose their place in line for trying to make a short cut through the wall with a blow torch. Jim Flaherty, to kill time, fhe's an expert at itj draws sketches of the bust in the lobby. Jackie Klunk, standing in Joe Trachy's vest pocket, looks over Flaherty's shoulder and announces the drawings a success!-they show a swell likeness of a bust . Joe Lossee takes a respite from his duties behind the registration desk to relate his activities in the Blue Ridge league during the summer under the alias, Joe Patatoe. Clever subterfuge, without a doubt. That Guy, Savino, scans the line for material to turn into cub reporters, and is evicted as a frat rusher . f28Oj ESTABLISHED 1818 Ff J L Us R1 5 1 I SEER - Hi E' '.

Miss Hazeltine passes, and the buzzing of the line subsides through force of habit on the part of the marchers. After a period of five days the line has now been diminished by fifty owing to the activity of the racketeers who have exhausted the fat Eddie Binzen and John Egan leave the line to take the Misses Krupp and Hickey to the Yankee Stadium to see the ball game, where they will smoke stogies, retailing at three for a nickel. The ladies, however, will smoke cigarettes. As Herman LaMark and Sugar Hugret, who are supposed to be at Farmingdale, pass by, the boys begin to whistle 'Sweet lvlystery of Life. The seventh, eighth, ninth days, etc., pass by, but being bigfhearted we will not pester you any longer with detail. It will suffice to say that the line goes on. fWe knew it couldn't last.j Those among the marchers who have been in the army or who have participated in dance marathons march on, all others creep exhausted. The building reverberates with the song of the marchers. You know the refrain. They played it in Tolstoy's Resurrection . It goes something like this, step by step, mile by mile. It is called Sweet Hearts on Parade or La Rumba. We don't quite remember which.

Year Books RODUCING a year book is by no means the work of a day, nor simply the assembling of type and plates . '. . it is that of hard work, intelligent co- operation and service. Your editor gathers material and facts for the text . . . that is quite a problem. And, wisely, he seeks the ser- vice of a printer to help and to give him intelligent cooperation. Often, this ser- vice goes beyond the mechanics of printing. It reaches the highspots of editing and managenlent. As publishers of nlany year books, we give this individual attention and posi- tive service. That is why so many of the finer year books are supervised by RobertW. Kelly and printed by Cloister.

Cl0ISTlill PRINTING CORPORATIUN 309LafayettcStreel,New York S73 'The Constitution ofthe Senior Bachelor Club of the School of Commerce HEN the representatives of the ticket committee for the Senior ball broached the price of the bid, many a young man of Commerce remained mute with a farfaway look in his eyes. From the manner in which the boys cast nickel tips about the cuisine emporii, it couldn't have been that they didn't have the price. It's possible that it might have been the women. We offer the following as a workable constitution for a Senior bachelor club, membership in which will tend to minimize the amount of embarrassment which women haters in the Senior class have to endure during the periods in future years when tickets for the Senior ball are being sold. THE CONSTITUTION OF THE SENIOR BACHELOR CLUB OF THE SCHOOL OF COMMERCE PREAMBLE We, the woman haters of N. Y. U., School of Commerce, do ordain and establish this antiffemale organization to be known as the Senior Bachelor Club of the School of Commerce.

A ARTICLE II The purpose of this organization shall be to create a lesser dependency of the dignified male seniors upon the worthless coeds of this school-and to have them look us over for a change. ARTICLE III All members shall strictly observe the following byflaws: Sextion 1. Members may get all the dates they wish-in a delicatessen store. Sextion 2. The theme song of this organization will be Walkin' My Baby Back Home -with emphasis on the s'Walkin'. Sextion 3. Any member caught telephoning a broad will be assessed the telephone fee to Europe. Sextion 4. The ban on dates does not apply to those with foreigners who have come across recently. Sextion 5. Members who are caught with Houston street show girls will not be chastized. They will be eulogized for bravery and given free meals for a week at the club. Sextion 6. Members who talk in their sleep will have what they say held against them. Sextion 7. As a precautionary measure against the depletion of the organization, members will be compelled to stuff their mouths with rags at night in keeping with sextion 6 above. Sextion 8.
