It has countless members dominating on the gridiron, on the basketball court, in various clubs, in the social world, and. most important, in the classroom.

Curry President I ice-President Secretary Treasurer At the open in i of the year the Sophomore Class was organized, and officers were elected at a meeting conducted by the class under parliamentary rule in the college chapel. I'he officers elected at this meeting were very competent leaders and had the interests of the class at heart in the execution of their duties. A high degree of spirit and enthusiasm existed between the freshmen and sophomores during the first semester. In sports and college activities the class was well represented. Much histrionic ability was shown by the class in its presentation of the sophomore play, which was a great success dramatically and financially. The annual party was held in Gymnasium A on Lehman 20. where all who attended enjoyed a delightful evening. Great spirit existed in the classroom, and much harmony and co-operation was shown between the members of the faculty and the class during the entire year of Il t2. Sophomore Class I 69 I I. D.

IIeimtzei.man......................................Advisor During the dark days of September 19.51, a band of exploring young men and women interested in higher education ventured to the college center of Butler County. Other bands had frequently visited here, but none with the earnestness and vigor of this daring tribe whose members came from Butler and the surround- Four Year ing counties. Freshmen Several of these stalwarts were sent on secret missions along the backroads and highways by the sophomore class posing as Chief Justice, but they joined in the merriment as it was all in fun. I he athletic world olTered opportunities to some of the members, and others talented with good voices were sought by such organizations as the Vesper Choir and the Clee Clubs. Now as the year draws to a close some of the members of the class o! NV have to terminate their education for the time being, but they will always remember and be inspired bv being a freshman or pioneer. R. M.

Me not only has winning basketball teams and an exceptional record in football, but he also has the ability to make and keep the friendship and respect of those who know him and work with him The seniors hope to retain this friendship after graduation and wish Coach continued success and happiness in his work at Slippery Rock September eighth and the boys were back on the campus. Registration was over and Coach had but ten days in which to build a winning Green and White grid team. Graduation had removed several men from the line whose places were hard to fill. Pessimists were predicting a light team that would not stand the gaff, but Thompson with the aid of Mr. Cottrell and Byron McClosk} developed a team that ended the season in a blaze f glory. When the dust had cleared away on the hot Saturday afternoon of September 10. Slippery Rock had tasted defeat for the first time in seven years from a conference rival. I ock I lavcn. The defeat was largely attributed to the new combinations of the local squad failing to click in cruical plays, and not to any great superiority on the part of the opponents. The work of Cataio. Ripper. Stonis. and Pearson shone out through the cloud of defeat. At the close of the PHI football season the annual football banquet was held in honor of the coaches and players of the college football squad. I he fine dinner, with speeches of mutual gratitude and respect by both mentors and team members, crowned the past season with an aurora of friendliness and good fellowship. 71 1-1 M!:R If CO I I Kill I .1 mislant Coach ami l:acuity Manager of thlctic$ Much of the success of the varsity athletics of the college is due to the splendid management and business ability of Mr Cottrell. I'he manner in which he looks after details and over-comes difficulties in schedules, transportation, and equipment rtf the team leaves nothing to be desired. I he varsity seniors take this opportunity to express their thanks for the consideration shown them as members of the various athletic squads A large crowd of Westminster fans and alumni rose to their feet in alarm when Walton opened up with a passing attack that drove deep into the enemy s territory just before the final whistle. But the drive was late, and Westminster won with the narrow margin of ( -0. Cappezutti and Kerr showed New W ilmington fans some of the arts of good football playing. Ineligibility badly riddled Coach’s eleven for the next game with our archrivals California on Parent's Day. Ripper recovered the visiting safety-man's fumble, and Walton carried the ball over for the only score of the game. Slippery Rock loses a formidable rival, for California is playing intramural football next year. This informal snap of the squad shows how the boys look during the ver important part of their work known as practice It is at this time that scrub works with star and the characteristics and personality of the true collegian are formed. 75 PA I I HUMS—Captain One of the best players of the Slippery Rock State Teachers College and a popular man with his teammates Miles won his spurs by tilling le Graham's shoes when that expert was declared ineligible, and like his predecessor, he found himself unable to compete in the majority of the games because ol the four-year rule Although comparatively small, a lighting Slippery Rock team withstood the battering of a powerful Grove City eleven and thrilled the spectators bv holding on the one-yard line anti carrying the ball almost the entire length of the field on passes. Again the passes came late, for the final whistle stopped the drive with but a few yards to go. After playing St. brands on even terms for three quarters, the Green and hite gridders weakened in the last quarter to lose by a score of 12 to 0. Stonis. Ben , and Cappezutti played exceptionally well for Slippery Rock. Clarion considered i )3l its year for revenge for the trouncings taken from Slippery Rock in the past.

Slippery Hock changed their minds by giving them a comparative score of 26-0 in favor of S. R. Westlake scored three times, with Cataio and Kerr plaving stellar football. A confident Slippery Rock team went to Ldinboro and was outplayed by an obscure but worthy rival, who had studied our field tactics since the preceding September in preparation for this game of games. That was the first victory for Ldinboro in more than twenty years of competition with Slippery Rock. Lavored to take a trouncing by the dopesters. the Thompson lads rose to the occasion and easily defeated aynesburg college by the score of I 3-0. The victory was the second one in succession over the yellow-jackets and ended the season in a triumphant manner.

This was the largest number of aspirants to report for basketball in the history of the college. A large number of these were freshmen, stars in their respective high schools, aspiring to make good in the vacancies left by the graduation ol Campbell. Nash, anil Morris. After four weeks of hard drill Coach Thompson and Mr. Cottrell took the Green and White squad to Grove City to renew basketball relationships which had been severed lifteen years before. The Slippery Rock midgets made a good impression. but lost to one of the best basketball clubs in W estern Pennsylvania. The Thompson quintet began a winning streak of four straight when it defeated St. Vincent by a score of f’-l in the lirst college contest in the spacious new gym. Basketball St. l-'rancis. Indiana, and Youngstown Y College were the next victims. The Edinboro jinx stopped the midgets before a capacity crowd, and Clarion took revenge for many setbacks handed her by Slippery Rock. The score was live won and live lost when St. Vincent got revenge for a setback early in the season. S 2 The lidinboro jinx worked again, but Clarion bowed before McClelland and Patnik's accurate shooting, and Slippery Rock began a winning streak ot four straight to finish the season, hollowing Clarion, the power I ul (ilcnville quintet felt a score of 3()-2l). and Indiana was an easy victim.

Mr. Dodds is to be congratulated on his fine work The seniors who were not varsity athletes, wish to thank Mr. Dodds for the opportunity to participate in this interesting athletic program. The seniors sarted the interclass program right by winning the touch football trophy. First place was closely contested by the juniors who battled the seniors to a 0-0 tie in one game of the series. I he senior midget. Graham Baskin, who played center in this game, played best for the champions. . 86 The seniors won the soccer tournament, which was a thriller and which had won the interest of the entire student body. One of the most interesing games was played Saturday. November 21. when the seniors defeated the sophomores in a last and furious game by the score 2-1. It was won only after playing two extra periods on a muddy field during a drizzling rain. Kellex and Chandler scored for the seniors. A new varsitx sport is making its appearance at Slippery Rock this spring. Track and field training, as well as our new swimming pool, is filling a much-needed part of the health education course. Mr. Arthur P. Vincent, a former Westminster star, will be the coach of the new sport. It is likely that two dual meets will be scheduled for this spring in addition to the intramural meet. Two senior Inns whom we expect to make good in the new sport are Bennie Martin and Guy” Mills. We also expect some point-winners in Cataio anil Miles. The seniors appreciate this opportunity of working under you. Mr. Vincent. Inter-class Soccer The freshmen under the direction of a senior. Guy Mills, overcame all opposition and won the coveted class league honors. 1 he seniors played the freshmen on even terms the first game, but the yearlings seemed to thrive on competition and won six without a defeat. Track Inter-class Basketball 87 The College Gymnastic Team l hc efforts of health education instructors and interested students for the past three years has brought about the organization of a college gym team at Slipper) Rock. After l)r. Risen berg's approval of the new sport had been granted, tryouts were held, and the twelve best men were selected to represent the college in gymnastic circles. The team is most fortunate in having l)r. Gallagher for the coaching position. Mis experience as a top-notcher gymnast and as a judge of gymnastic meets insures a capable coach and leader. The work of the team will be exhibitional this year, but it is planned to develop an exhibitive team next year. Groups of three or four gymnasts from the team will visit neighboring high schools and give performances to enliven interest of high school students in gymnastics. This will be accomplished through the aid of interested individuals who will lend their private cars for transportation of the squads. The gymnastic exhibition in the college gym will take the place of the Health and Physical Education Demonstration of last year. This exhibition will be a culmination of a series of performances given by the team in the latter part of the year. Next ear the team hopes to meet such teams as West Chester, East Stroudsburg. and Penn State in competition. W ith Demoise. Haves. Kruse, and Samuels graduating, two-thirds of the team remains to earn on the Green and White's prestige in gymnastic circles. ss m in Kiusi- It has bc«n said that good things come in small packages Surely this tumbling mite is an added pr K f of that statement, lie has held many a breath (those of 800 students) during his acrobatic antics.

We fail to find words that are suitable to commend such masterful work as these cheer leaders have exhibited. Many times has Coach Thompson expressed the value of support ol the student body. This support must be encouraged and led bv our cheer leaders; that it was. there is no doubt. Our teams have been victorious, our teams have Cheer Leaders lost, and through it all the courage of the leaders apparently did not fail. Many victories, and, sad to say. many defeats have been due to the reaction of the student body.

What is the explanation of it all? Well, here it is. The Nature Guides are a group enjoying their second year at Slipper) Rock. The purpose of this group is to bring together a working body of people of outstanding ability and interest in nature's activities. They wish to be able to teach others to find the endless entertainment and instruction which the procession of the months and seasons offer.” In finding this entertainment the Nature Guides learn to see many things that ordinarily one passes by. 106 I'oiirtli Non Kruif Double.

The purpose of this club is to hike. play, and learn. Intentionally and incidentally the members discover many of nature's secrets. The success of this organization is largely due to the splendid leadership of Dr. Waldron, who has inspired many to follow the paths that lead to an appreciation of the philosophy that may be found in meadow, brook, and forest life.

Mu chapter at Slipper} Rock was installed in 1929 and has ever since played an important role on the campus. The membership consists of the men who have met with the requirements of the local chapter, and it is the aim of the fraternity to aid every male student to meet these requirements. Aside from the educational activities of the fraternity, social activities are given due consideration. The success of the fraternity dance on December 12th proves that even though it is an educational fraternity, the social life is not overlooked. The fraternity magazine. The Lampadion. issued quarterly, keeps each chapter informed as to what the other chapters are doing, thereby making the fraternity a federation working harmoniously together under the direction of the national office. It also prints articles on recent trends in the educational field. Phi Sigma P 127 OH ICI KS lirst Semester Donald Latshanv DeLoris Benson Erdene Cavis Mr. 11. L.

It has been talked about, written about, and puzzled over. T’was many years ago that the seniors decided they should have a name for their annual, but what would be the name? To Dr. Hamm they went with frantic appeal and pleaded for a name, hoping that he might help them. Saxi. from the Latin saxum. rock.” he mused; “Gcnia, from the verb gigna. to spring. Then call it Saxigena forth they cried. T is strong and able, springing from a rock. Today the name still stands.

Oom A f Starting in May. 1930, the more advanced science group decided to form a group called the Nature Guides. Nature trips were to be the outstanding features of the year as a result of hard, untiring work carried on. The first trip was to Medix Run in l:lk County. Mere the group of thirty-three spent the week-end far from the nearest signs of habitation. The prizes captured on this lirst week-end were a rattle-snake, a porcupine, and some green snakes. The second trip was to Heart's Content Forest and Cook Forest. I lere again civilization was left in the distance, and nature held sway. Presque Isle was sought by a still larger group last May. It rained and rained and rained, but rain makes no difference to nature guides. Oglebay Park in West Virginia is the “Mecca of a few students who have spent some happy weeks there in the Nature Training School. I he last trip taken was to McConnel’s Mills last October, and this spring another trip is being planned to some place of scientific interest. These science groups have been made possible large Is by the enthusiasm of l)r. Waldron and Mr. Shelar. 'V. H n Nature Trips 165 166 ■H -■---T V. .; ' 167 Just before entering Slippery Rock from the south one notices a fine grove of trees. I wo years ago it occurred to those in the Science Department that this spot could he used as a center tor the outdoor activities of the science students. I he trees and brush were cleared away somewhat to enhance the natural beauty of the site, and trails were built winding in and out among the trees and small streams. Nature Trails 168 Plants of various kinds were imported and planted with special care to make the trail more attractive. Signs were placed where possible, naming the trees and shrubs. In time it is hpixrd that this location will be regarded as a park and as a part of the campus. Ihe trail i accessible to those who feel the need of outdoor contact, and many students spend their spare moments strolling about the nooks and crannies learning the wisdom of the woods. Nature Trails i i 6:30- Breakfast bell (Breakfast? That i the question). 7;(K)—Rushes down u the dining room (everyone sitting). 7:55—Good morning, dear teacher (gives him apple). 8-:35 Bluff fails to work for third time (tough). 0:30 Wises up and answers one question in Geography (fine). 9:45 Meanders to chapel (lost in the rush). 10:13 Now that is over (hollow the walks). 11:30- (jetting hungry (Breakfast all gone). 12:10—Devours iron (Spinach). I :Q0—Class meeting (Whoopee). 1:10—Almost late again (Thanks to the wind). 2:06—Ouch (Prof. Headland gets another penny). 4:00 Daily walk downtown (Signs of spring). 3:20 (jets to dining room too early ( Early birds). 6:30— Goes to dance (syncopation). 7:13 Tries to study (severe eye trouble). 8:00 Good show in Butler (for the men only ). 10:00—Lights out (in theory only). 3:()()—more wood). , 3:00 Sunrise hike (early bird gets the worm). Any Senior s Diary I7n Those good old days, who could forget such wholesome, downright. honest-to-goodness outdoor lifer I he streams, the canoes, the swimming, and. ah. those refreshing dips. Swallow tail! Swallow tail! crash, bang, the nets are Hying right, left, up, down, a miss, a hit. finally another capture for that bugolngy” collection is proclaimed. Calm and quiet again overtakes the camp. The sad. sorrowful crackles of the camp tires, the gay. pompous flare of the flames, the red. glistening tearful embers all enrich the soul with a spirit of reverence, solemnity, and sincerity. Life is not complete without such beauty, such pure common naturalness as is gained by a camp experience. Pardon the indulgence in such incoherent language, but it is merely an attempt to put on paper that which is impossible to do. that which only can be appreciated by participation, that which becomes a part of one's personalia and lives on in him. Surely Canawasco did not live in vain. Conawasco Camp 171 .'V.citJ Kou Munnicf. RoUumt IIa y. Harm Sbt-rnun l-jmc«. F rr.mic Ridakef lint K‘ - Ruff. Waldron Double. Iluichnun Humphrey. Mikbucic. Stone. Shrbr. (Sollbcncrr absent) The group pictured above is not organized under any definite constitution, but it is held together by the tie of common interest in science. This group started in !‘ 2l) with nature study as a hobby. Since that time the hobby has become a fast tie that holds these people together year after year. They are sometimes called the ‘‘Bugs of the I niversity. not because of the bugs in the background, but because of their wide interests varying from Chordates to the Colcoptera. The theme song is. “Were from Amphioxus.” I he entrance requirements to this well-known group are: a pleasant smile, a desire to learn, two good posterior appendages for hiking, (automobiles are undesire-able). one good usable lunch hook for use during lunch or picnic (to be used also for picking (lowers, frogs and bumblebees), one good optic lamp to visualize form and color, one good auditory detector to listen to bird, brook, bug. and breeze; one good olfactory nozzle to detect trailing arbutus, trullles. and skunks one suit loose clothing to include knickers and light shoes, and a cheerful disposition. Note: No shooting is permitted excepting with a camera. 172 ''Tell we not in mornful numbers breakfast's but an empty dream, l or the student's wise that slumbers Milk in a pitcher is called cream.'’ The cave-man practice of knocking girls senseless is no longer in vogue or necessary. bowman— Why. hello, my dear nincompoop! There arc a tremenduous number of casualties. I see by the paper.” Stone- 'Torsooth. my dear Igglede-bobbooboo. and what paper?” bowman—“Egad, the fly paper. lien; Hey. don't spit on the floor! Rollins— What's the matter? Does the floor leak?” Inscription on a tombstone Here lies an atheist. All dressed up and no place to go. Shorty, let go of me this instant I rom the way those people stared who just went by. I can tell my nose is shiny.” Captain on ship— Need any help? Aviator ( fter floating four days at sea)— Gosh no. we're just changing a tire. DEDDIKACIIl N To all those who say. Huh. I could have done much better than that myself. but failed to contribute or help when asked to do no. we most lovingly deciate this remaining section. From Here and There 3 173 Famous Statements which have been made during our Four Year’s stay at Slippery Rock Back of most things that are done is the economic struggle of life. It is as dangerous to be intelligent as it is for a girl to be attractive. Service is the price we pay for living. Some people hitch-hike through life. The measure of the worth of any social institution is its effect in enlarging anti improving experience. It's good to have the things that money can buy, but it is good to check up once in a while to make sure we haven't lost the things that money can t buy. Discussion does not mean the swapping of ignorance. Things done at the spur of the moment are not usually worth while, but rather those things which are carefully and deliberately worked out. We plan our lives in periods of meditation and not in the hustle and bustle ol daily life. Personality includes those things in us which influence others, or those things in others which influence our lives. The instinct of self-preservation makes us dishonest.
