The thinness, which explains several other things, can be explained as a matter of cost. Wake Forest students for the past several years have been getting books whose costs have chopped into funds meant for other things. They have been getting books which compared to those of much larger schools, whose yearbook budgets ran around forty thousand dollars. This year ' s book is the first in several student generations to come reasonably close to its budget. Most things in the book were cut because of the cost involved, although some things were cut and others left uncut for certain specific reasons. One of the reasons there is no dedi- cation is that we consider dedicating books an anachronistic practice. On the other hand, we wanted very much to run pictures of all the faculty members, and tried as hard as we could to do so until production problems forced us to substitute a couple of views for faculty portraits. When the 1950 Howler was started during the summer of 1949 it was planned to give as complete coverage as possible for the entire school year, and distribute the book in Sep- tember. The distribution date was changed twice — first moved up to July and then back to September. But coverage was our real goal and our greatest problem. We tried hard to tell a complete story of the year from the con- temporary viewpoint, and to bring in enough things to enable every reader to see what 1950 at Wake Forest looked like to him then, and therefore enable him in retrospect to both judge and reminisce. Staying within the budget was hard enough, but getting the coverage we wanted proved impossible, even on foreseeable events. All in all we think we have given a pretty fair sampling of what happened during the ' 49- ' 50 school year at Wake Forest, especially through our features section and the story of the year. We don ' t expect you to read it now, but we think you ' ll enjoy it and find it valuable a few vears from now. THE ADMINISTRATION The Administrative offices of the school kept Wait Hall buzzing with activity during 1949-50. The increased attendance affected every depart- ment which controls the welfare of the college. Mr. D. B. Bryan continued in his capacity as Dean of the college and administered to the troubles and problems of the student body in all cases which needed official attention. His duties also require him to be an official adviser to the presi- dent. Under the supervision of Elliott B. Earnshaw, the problems of finance, salaries, veterans ' eligibility, and general college business were dealt with by the six staff members of the Bursar ' s office. The annual financial report was published in this de- partment, all increased grants to the college in the form of loans, scholarships, or subsistences were handled, and the records of veterans were kept accurate under the guidance of Asst. Bursar Worth Copeland and Jim Cook. The many academic records which have to be kept by a college were done by the office of the Registrar. Mr. Grady S. Patterson and his as- sistant, Mrs. Margaret Perry, handled the pub- lishing of the college catalog, all absences, the law school records, various scholarships, each student ' s grades, and entrance correspondence, along with a capable staff of five. The Alumni and Public Relations Office with three staff members and director Dr. Eugene Olive, published the Alumni News four times last year, along with sponsoring several money-raising campaigns. Dean of Women Lois Johnson and her assistant Mrs. John Chandler, provided counsel to the many coeds on the campus and kept a complete list of all women students and their activities. All re- THURMAN D. KITCHIN, M.D. President LL.D., F.A.C.P. quests for entrance by women were handled in this department. The task of sending both general news and sports publicity to the many newspapers and radio stations in this area came under the duties of the college News Bureau under the supervision of Tom Bost, Jr. and his assistant, John Dillon. All ar- rangements for publicity concerning athletic events at the college were made by Mr. Bost and his staff. Professor J. L. Memory, Jr. was in charge of all practice teaching assignments and the placing of graduated students in suitable jobs. DANIEL BUNYAN BRYAN, M.A., Pd.D.

Op fi 69 I ifwvw THE SCHOOL OF LAW Rl ■ ■■H The Faculty Although the Wake Forest School of Law is thirty-six years old, ii remains a small school. Following closely the traditions established by its founder and first instructor, Needham Vancy Gul- lev. the administration through the years has purposely kept it small. The principle adhered to i that one can acquire a better legal education in an atmosphere conducive to fellowship and cooperation. A faculty of only six men teach more than thirty- nine courses to less than two hundred students. These nun are, however, more than mere in- structors of law. Above all. they are friends to tlie students they teach. A law student ' s problem is very much their problem. Each member of the faculty is as much inter- ested in helping an individual student as he is in holding last to the principles and policies which have made the school outstanding. Its graduates have left a profound mark on the legal profession not only in North Carolina but in many other states as well. The faculty understands student problems be- cause they never cease to be students themselves. The great body of law is never static. Every day new law is written. Also more modern inter- pretations of old law is ever being handed down. To keep abreast of changes, the faculty retains the inquisitiveness of a student and docs a sizable amount of home work. These six men have as their primary purpose the training of young men and women for the practice of law in North Carolina. But ample instruction is provided to train students who ex- pect to practice in other jurisdictions. Instruction. therefore, is not confined to a mere statement ol rules of law. An effort is made to develop students ' reasoning powers, prepare them adequately to present cases, and improve their analytical abilities so that they can readily see where the law must be adapted to (hanging social and economic conditions. Stu- dents, too. are instilled with a high sense of legal ethics and made aware of the mission they have undertaken as administrators of the law. The admirable record made by graduates of the School of Law is evidence enough of the success with which instructional policy is meeting. The facultv boasts some notable names. In ROBERT E. LEE, M.A., LL.B., LL.M., S.J.D. Dean forty-six years at Wake Forest, Professor Edgar W. Timberlake has taught more law students than any other law professor in North Carolian. Outstanding with him are Drs. I. Beverly Lake and Dean Robert E. Lee. The veteran of the faculty is Professor Edgar W. Timberlake, who for forty-six years at Wake Forest has taught more law students than any other law professor in North Carolina. Next in seniority is Dr. I. Beverly Lake, who has ably served the School for eighteen years. Dr. Lee. who became Dean in 1946. after a notable career at the Law School of Temple L T niversity, is a learned teacher and writer on legal subjects. L ' nder his efficient and wise administration the School expanded from the handful of war years to the 182 of the 1949-50 session. Colleagues of these during the current session were Dwight A. Olds, Professor of Law; and William C. Soule and Durward H. Dyche, Associate Professors. The School ranks high academically, being a member of the Association of American Law Schools, and is listed as an approved school by the American Bar Association, as well as by all North Carolina accrediting agencies. With its com- modious and convenient q uarters and its library ol over 18,000 volumes, the School is admirably equipped to carry on and to surpass the line record of the past. 72 THE THIRD YEAR CLASS GEORGE M.

THE BAR ASSOCIATION The Wake Forest Student Bar As- sociation has as its primary function the government of the School of Law. But it performs the additional services of acquainting law students with the nature and activities of the North Caro- lina Bar. fostering a closer relationship between students and faculty, and mak- ing students conscious of the obligations and opportunities existing for lawyers through bar associations. The most outstanding service ren- dered this year was the sponsorship of two terms of Moot Court. During the first semester, the Bar Association, in conjunction with Professor Dyche ' s legal writing class, held a term of The Su- preme Court of Wake. Serving on the bench as chief justices for these appellate hearings were notable members of the North Carolina Bar, among whom were Justice Devin of the North Carolina Supreme Court; A. J. Newton. Clerk of the Supreme Court; Dr. Dale Stansbury, professor of law at Duke University and former dean of the Wake Forest School of Law; and J. W. Bunn and I. O. Brady, Raleigh attorneys. A term of trial court was held in the spring in cooperation with Professor Soule ' s class in practice court. Giving these trials authenticity were a number ol North Carolina Superior Court Judges who gave unstintingly of their valuable time to hear the cases. And for the first time since the inauguration of the moot court system, cases were carried before justices of the peace and later appealed to Superior Court. The Bar Association also invited to the campus many outstanding speakers who spoke on subjects of current impor- tance to aspirant young lawyers. They were Dean Henry P. Brandis of the North Carolina Law School; Charles Brown, Director of the North Carolina Federal Bureau of Investigation, and Colonel Doane F. Kiechel. Judge Ad- vocate General, Fort Bragg. 81 PHI ALPHA DELTA First Row Greene, Lamm, H. Lee, Wooten, C.Lee. Second Row: Edens, Leatherwood, Bunn, Walker, W.

Timberlake Chapter was established on the cam- pus of Wake Forest College in 1 947. After only three years of ac- tivity, it has become a very definite fixture and had an extreme- ly successful year in g- o. A banquet was held at Tcel ' s Supper Club in Raleigh during the second semester and the Honorable Emory Denny, State Supreme Court Justice, spoke to the group. Another banquet during the spring took place at the Washington-Duke Hotel in Durham. The banquet was sponsored in conjunction with the Phi Alpha Delta chapter of the Duke University School of Law.

The most significant project of the Beta Alpha circle of Omicron Delta Kappa, the nation ' s outstanding collegiate leadership fraternity, for this year was the preparation of a compendium of student activities. A comprehensive question- naire was distributed to every extra-curricular organization in order to glean the necessary in- formation. The compendium will aid the new president in familiarizing himself with the ac- tivities of students outside the scope of the cur- riculum. The local chapter holds two elections each year. New members named during the fall semester were. Jim Duncan, Charlie Teague, Rom Weath- erman. Woody Woodward, Bob Phelps, Bob Crouch. Alton Hall. Leo Derrick, Ed Friedenberg, Herb Paschal, and Paul McCardel. In the spring, ten more men were elected — Ray Bauer, Grady Friday, John Gibson, Bob Sherril, Gene Hooks, Robert Howren, John Pate, Ray Stone, Wiley Warren, and Paul Williams. The work of ODK is done quietly in discussion, conferences, and through the private initiative of individual members.

This year Beta Rho Chapter of Beta Beta Beta, honorary biological fraternity, was among the top organ- izations on the campus in achieve- ments. Election of new members was held in the Fall as was the annual faculty spaghetti dinner. The chapter room was redecorated and equipped with fluorescent lighting. Three representatives attended the national convention in New York BETA BETA BETA during the Christmas holidays. There. Dr. B. E. Smith was named to the national governing board of the fra- ternity. In March, thirteen of the club ' s members attended the south- eastern conference at Stetson Univer- sity. The regularly scheduled programs were designed to present the three major fields of biology to the mem- bers. Outstanding specialists from the field of bacteriology, botany, and zo- ology were guests on various occasions Livingstone, Williams, Deane, Fortenbacher, Prof. Drake, John- son, Oldham, Isbell, Duling. The College Women ' s Professional and Business Association was organ- ized on the campus this year to recognize outstanding ability and de- termined effort on the part of Wake Forest coeds. To be eligible for membership, a woman must hold an editorship or business managership of one of the four campus publications. Members are elected by a unamimous vote onlv. C W P B A and elections are held twice a year. CWP BA attempts to advance in- terest in journalism. The organi- zation also sponsors one good party a year. Under the guidance of Judy Forten- backer. president, and Professor J. C. Drake, faculty adviser, the group held a series of very interesting meetings throughout the year and sponsored a dinner party in the spring. 9] nil DELTA KAPPA ALPHA First Row: DeChent Morris, Eden, Alexander, Fuller, Stone.

Delta Kappa Alpha, Wake Forest ' s honorary ministerial fraternity, this year recognized a number ol min- isterial students who demonstrated superior quality in both their academ- ic records and in their leadership ability. Stimulating addresses and discus- sions on the contemporary questions that confront the young minister were presented at the regular meetings of the group during the year. Some of the speakers included Dr. McNeill Poteat, former president of Colgate-Rochester Seminary, who dis- cussed separation of church and state; Dr. A. C. Rcid, professor of philos- ophy and psychology, whose theme was ministerial ethics; Dr. Agnes Randolph, Bowman-Gray psychiatrist, who spoke on the relationship of her field to the ministry; and Pro- fessor William Soule of the law school whose subject was The Layman Looks at the Minister.

Beta Tau. a local business fraternity, became the seventy-ninth chapter of Delta Sigma Pi. an international business fraternity. The local club for business ad- ministration students had been or- ganized on campus in 1948. and in less than two years had been able to meet all requirements necessary for admission into the international or- ganization. Charter presentation ceremonies were held in the Sir Walter Raleigh Hotel in Raleigh with Delta Sigma Pi President, Walter Sehm of St. Paul. Minn., and Grand Secretary- Treasurer, H. G. Wright of Chicago, among the visiting dignitaries. Rep- resentatives from Delta Sigma Pi chapters at the Lhiiversity of North Carolina and the LIniversity of Geor- gia registered as visitors.

Gamma Sigma Epsilon, national honorary chemical fraternity, aims chiefly to promote interest in chem- istry. To this end several awards are given each year. The highest of these is a free membership to the American Chemical Society, won this year by J. Chestnutt. Working in cooperation with the faculty of the Chemistry Department, the members sponsor films on chem- istry and brings in lecturers to help further the aims of the society. Social activity, highlighted this year l v a banquet, is also a part of the program. It was a vear of much activity. 93 INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB First Row: James E. Roberts, Davey L.

Excellent programs, the most no- table of which was Dr. H. M. Parker ' s lecture on the hydrogen bomb, drew a large number of students to the bi- monthly meetings. I he organization sponsored several campus-wide events. Among them were a chapel talk by Congressman C. B. I )eane about his world tour; and a World Student Service Fund Drive, which brought in two hundred and thirty dollars. The drive was opened with a talk by Miss Sonia Grodka.

Constitutionally, the object of the Math Club is threefold: ( i ) to pro- mote interest in math on the campus; (2j to bring those interested in math into a closer fellowship; (3) to rec- ognize those who have made outstand- ing achievements in the field of math. The aim of the club this year was to become a chapter of the national honorary mathematics fraternitv. the Kappa Mu Epsilon. Unsuccessful in this as yet. the group hopes to be ac- cepted next year. The club held its meetings twice monthly and had several guest speak- ers at the meetings. Initiations were held once each semester and were followed by socials, one at Crabtree MATH CLUB ( Ireek and the other in the Recreation Room of the Music-Religion Building. Officers of the club were elected for one semester only. First semester officers were: President, Hugh Dover; Vice-President, Lindsay Megginson; Recording Secretary. Dot Hilburn; Treasurer.

Alpha Lambda, the local chapter of Phi Epsilon Kappa, national Phys- ical Education fraternity, is one of the newest Wake Forest professional fraternities, being installed in May 1949. A chief aim of Phi Epsilon Kappa is to elevate the standards, ideals and ethics of those persons ex- pecting to teach health, physical edu- cation, and recreation. During the past year, Alpha Lambda made a practical contri- bution to high school sports by hold- ing an officiating clinic in basketball, and a baseball clinic for coaches and principals of nearby high schools. The chapter plans to continue this activity in all major sports. James W. Long acted as faculty adviser for the group. Ray Royston, Max A. Nance, Dave Herring, Alton C. Hall, Woodie Woodward, Hubert Owen. The Physics Club is composed of advanced students in physical sciences who have maintained a specified average. Officers for this year were: Alton Hall, President; Dave Herring, Vice-President; Hubert Owen, Secre- tary; and Roland Woodward, Treas- urer. One of the major purposes of the club is to promote an interest in phys- ics and to familiarize the general PHYSICS CLUB student public with certain basic physical principles. In carrying out this aim, the club presented its second annual Physics Fair, which proved to be interesting, informative, and highly- entertaining. Various devices which illustrated physical principles and phenomean were demonstrated to the large num- ber of students who attended the spectacular event.

The Wake Forest College debate team again this year proved to be one of the power houses of the South. Coached by Mr. F. R. Shirley and led by veterans Bob Crouch and Lamar Caudle, the Wake debaters dominated five of the seven tournaments they entered this season, and thus earned a bid to the National Invitational Debate Tournament at West Point in April. Had they won one more debate in the tournament, they would have made the tournament ' s elimination rounds. Though rather disappointed at the DEBATE SQUAD outcome of the West Point tourna- ment. Prof. Shirley summed up the season by saying, I could hardly hope for a better season from the standpoint of total winnings and gen- eral cooperation, good will, and spirit among the squad members. Wake Forest won 82 decision debates during the current school year; the overall team was victorious in more than 80 per cent of its contests. Be- sides tournament competition Wake Forest played host in non-decision de- bates from William and Mary, Duke, Johns Hopkins, and Princeton.

Sigma Pi Alpha, honorary modern language fraternity, initiated two large groups of new members during the spring semester. Other activities of the organization included seminar pro- grams and informal discussions at the regular meetings of the fraternity. In addition, delegates attended the 97 SIGMA PI ALPHA national convention of the group in May. Membership in Sigma Pi Alpha is limited to two per cent of the student body who have shown marked pro- ficiency in modern language by vir- tue of a B average on not less than twelve hours work.

In connection with its social function this group acts as a govern- ing unit over ten Greek letter fraternities on the campus. Its main responsibility rests in the planning of the four main dances which the Council sponsors annually. In addition to this the organization sets the rules for the rushing and pledging of prospective fraternity men. The Council also awards large trophies to those lodges in its membership which excel in athletics. Homecoming decorations, and scholarship. This group is composed of two representatives from each of the ten social fraternities on the campus with each Fraternity having one vote through its senior representative. This year the Council sponsored a Homecoming Dance, a Christmas Dance, a Mid-Winter ' s Dance, and a Spring Dance. Highlighting the season were the appearances of the orchestras of Dean Hudson and Tony Pastor. Kill MISS VIVIAN SNUGGS Sponsor First Row Powers, White, Livick, Wood- ward, Sloan, R.

A £4 ROYSTON SHAKES FIST AS MIDNIGHT MOB ASSAULTS EATERY MISS ELEANOR MAHONEY The leading social events at the Alpha Sigma Phi house in ' - ' 5 o were the fine Christmas party and the roaring Apache Party. Apaches are a segment of left bank Parisians, not Indians, and the costumes that they are noted for are as much a part of the act as is the music. Then there were the Alpha Sig dances, parties that went along with IFC affairs. The Alpha Sigma Phi team in every sport was strong enough to be pointed at almost constantly. The Basketball team came in second, and the Softball team won the Intramural Championship during the summer. Also in sports, alumni Jim Duncan. Ed Royston and Nick Sacrinty were named to the Ail-Time Wake Forest Football ream. One of the more heralded events of the year was the assumption of the duties of a Financial Adviser by Richard Frye. local restaurateur. Around the section in Simmons Gus Grose led the singing and the Alpha Sig Choir, which made several popular- appearances at the windows of Bostwick and Lois Johnson Dorms. Fhe most memorable occasion was probably the pre-Christ- mas holiday serenade, which was picked up by several other groups, including one from Bostwick. Officers for the year were Emmett White. Paul Livick. Zeb Morgan, and Wendy Sloan. 101 AL$ First Sow: Wallace, Shive, Baldwin, Bry- ant, Martin, Sugg, Blackwell. Second Row: Roberts, Andrews, Lewis, Allen, Johnson, Hamlet, Folger.

And after the Homecoming celebration they went on decorating the rest of the house. A new chapter room, with new floor, furniture, fireplace, wallpaper etc. was put in. The out- side of the house on the Raleigh road was painted, the front porch made into a recreation room, and the dining hall rearranged. Decorating switched to costuming when the Delta Sig swabbies had their annual Sailor ' s Ball. Another important occasion was the Found- er ' s Day banquet, December tenth at the Washing- ton Duke. Probably the most significant activity this year was the establishment of the Phil Harris Memorial Sportsmanship Trophy in honor of their brother who was killed in August 1949. This year ' s award went to Moe Bauer.

They had a great trip over to Durham, the Duke chapter surrendered the sheepskin, and they finished off the day with a party at the Saddle Club. All the IFC sponsored dances were accompanied by additional Theta Chi dances at various nearby spots such as Lake Mirl at Homecoming and Upchurch ' s at the Christmas dances. The house was turned upside down for a little while in September when some of the brothers set to cleaning and repainting the chapter room. But the effect gained was appreciated the rest of the year. Although no regular scholarship competition was set up. Gamma Omicron had the best group average in the College for the first semester. Other enjoyable activities in the Theta Chi chapter room included frequent group singing around the piano, and bull sessions, bridge games, occasional study periods, and parties. Officers for the year were: J. K. Johnson, Fred Joyce, Bill Eaton, and Don Hayes. 103 ■■■■■■■ Jl ' 1 I K A First Row: Carr, Dickie, Willis, Davis, Shearin, Williams, Parker, Peeler, Phibbs, Bennett.

MISS DOT STAUFFER Sponsor Kappa Alpha started off a year filled with social activities with an Open House held after the Duquesne same. In addition to events sur- rounding IFC sponsored dances were parties at Josh Turnage ' s and with the Duke chapter. But, as usual, two parties stood out above the rest — the party given in the chapter room lor under- privileged children at Christmas time and with a KA Santa Claus; the annual Old South Ball, again one of the colorful events of the Spring. The KA ' s also started off the sports season with a rush by capturing the Intramural Football Championship after a number of gruelling games. Several brothers were also outstanding in indi- vidual sports. Scholarship was not neglected and Kappa Alpha maintained its high rating without any particular device. There were always plenty of lights burning in the KA see tion of Simmons late at night. Some of them marked a man getting ready for a quiz, but others indicated activity of a lighter sort that made the year memorable.

ROBERT STITH Over three hundred Kappa Sigs, mostly alumni, were fed and entertained in the recently renovated and redecorated chapter house over the Home- coming week end. This was just a hearty be- ginning for the chapter, which went through both semesters with much other social activity, in- cluding a Christmas party and dance with the Lambda Chi ' s and the PiKA ' s. And also at Christmas Kappa Sigma continued its practice of providing for an underprivileged Wake Forest family. Kappa Sig didn ' t field the powerful teams it has been noted for in intramural sports for the past several years, but offered a satisfying amount of competition. Scholastic competition was con- siderable also and the fraternity average did go up. Immediately after the Christmas holidays several members brought a new sport called Bridge into the house on Faculty Avenue. This proved suc- cessful for a couple of months, but it had to com- pete with madcap activity. Officers for the year were: John Pate, Fred Augst, Bob Stith, Jack Bullard. 105 AX A First Row: Shore, McLemore, Williams, Scott, Sheffner. Second Row: Morris, Miller, H. Pearce, Groves, Simms.

CHARLES HARGER Lambda Chi Alpha inaugurated its g- o officers at a Banquet at the (Hub 15 in Raleigh, which was all the more successful lor its lack of an after-dinner speaker. In addition to the usual entertainments at the IFC sponsored dances, the Lambda Chi ' s had a line party with the Gamma Sin society at Caro- lina which stands to be repeated next year. The best sports activity of the year turned out to be the Football game between the members and the pledges, a roughly played game which the members barely won. As a stimulation to scholarship, teams were set up to compete for grades. The losers, those on the team with the lowest weighted average, stood the winners to a banquet. Some boys were on the losing team twice and are expected to make A ' s next year. The Little Dorm, like all fraternity houses, had its bull sessions devoted 10 any topic from evo- lution to polities. The game of hearts enjoyed intense popularity for a brief while, and there were on occasion loud music, study hours, deco- rating, and initiations. Officers for the year were: Brian Scott, Hill Sims, Wade Gallant, and Harrv Pearce. 106 First Row: Agner, Wall, Watkins, Britt, Earp, Bell, Joyner, Clark, Boyce. Second Row Lancaster, C.

They won the Tennis, Golf and Basket- ball Championships and fielded strong teams in Football and Baseball. But the sports field wasn ' t the only place the boys played. In addition to the parties surround- ing the usual IFC activity, there was a Spring dance and party and the Big Four Picnic, at which all the PiKA ' s from Carolina, Du ke, State and Wake Forest got together. A small campaign to improve the grades of the fraternity was conducted. It was fairly suc- cessful although no competitions were used. Peggy Poole was elected the PiKA Dream Girl, and sponsor for the Howler. The Title of Dream Boy was contested all Spring; the leading candi- date seemed to be Doc Murphy. Two of the most successful activities was the publication of two Bull Sheet issues and a trip to the Kentucky Derby. Some of the other popular activities were shooting the bull, kibitz- ing, singing. Most of the kibitzing was done on the second floor, but the chapter room got its share. Officers for the year were: Jay Carter, Clyde Potter, Vic Goeller, and Basil Watkins. 107 l n First Row: Eure, Matney, Green, Parnell, Wyche, Draucker, Settle.

The Sigma Pi ' s annexed a rooming house south of the campus this year, and in it accommodated all other members. Another change in the build- ing set up was the alteration of the attic into a private gymnasium, which was pretty popular during the winter months. The biggest non-IFC party was held at the Bon Air before the Christmas holidays. That along with the parties held at the regular dances and a lew impromptu parties made a successful social year. Although no regular competition was set up, Sigma Pi scholarship improved during the year and the fraternity ' s standing in relation to others advanced. The Alpha Nu news was published for the Inst time, and everyone including alumni was glad to get it. As a means of communication, however, newspapers are second to telephones, so the announcement that, alter several years of postponement, a pay phone would be installed was joyously received. Other activities on the west end of Simmons included barbells, bull sessions, bridge, fireworks, and a small part of the water battles that periodi- cally raged in all five sections of the dorm. Officers for the year were: Carl Parnell, George Greene, Ray Wyche, Tony Urbanik.

MISS CARRIE CHAMBERLAIN Sigma Phi Epsilon enjoyed a thoroughly suc- cessful and socially active year. Outside the realm of IFC sponsorship the SPE ' s socials were highlighted by several cabin parties and dances. The annual Sig Ep Ball, which brings all the chapters of the State together for fun and fellow- ship, went through its third successful run in Raleigh. Another inter-chapter event, the Sig Ep Softball Tournament, combines both sport and social activity. This year it again was held at Chapel Hill and again Zeta won. The Sig Ep Most Valuable Player Award went to end Jim Duncan, who was chosen by his teammates. As usual the SPE ' s awarded a scholarship cup and as the year drew to a close were eligible to compete for a national award. N. C. Zeta was well represented at the various state and national conventions, and several brothers made the trip to Chicago for the National Sig Ep Conclave. In addition to the center section of Simmons, marked with a lighted heart, the Sig Eps operated an annex, the lower floor of which was given over to a dining hall, which proved especially enter- taining and worthwhile during exams. Officers for the year were: Ray Stone, Marion Davis, E. P. Ellis, Jr., Bill Foster. 109 1 I LX First Row: Phillips, Geary, Acree, Gray- beal, Sledge, Copeland.

Delta Nu chapter of Sigma Chi and the Sigs from N. C. State got together at the Tar Heel Club celebrating Delta Nu ' s first birth- day, and for the State boys their victory that afternoon. The prevailing spirit of brotherhood that made the party a success convinced the brothers that it should be an annual event. The fraternity also had its share of fun at the IFC sponsored dances, but. as usual, the parts of the year was the Sweetheart Ball. The dance was held in the C Carolina Hotel Ballroom, and Julie Watson was chosen the Sweetheart of Sigma Chi. Competition was injected into scholastic en- deavor when a pool was formed as a Scholarship Award. Everyone kicked in. but the man with the lowest grades had to pay five dollars. The house on the Raleigh road looked and sounded like a fraternity house with everything from Rag Mop to Bach, letters and cartoons on the bulletin board, mail call and the Sigma Chi Choir which was heard occasionally at Bostwick and Lois Johnson Dorms. Officers for the year were: Grady Friday, Buck Geary, Earl Martin, George Phillips.

SQUARE AND COMPASS The Square and Compass Club is the organi- zation on the campus which is composed of students who are already members of masonic lodges. This group met every first and third Tuesday night throughout the year to hear talks by outstanding Masons and to discuss degree work. This club is not a Masonic lodge. It is, however, a fellowship where students who have the common ideals of the Masons can meet and discuss ob- jectively the required work for certain degrees of advancement. Whenever possible the members visited the local lodge as guests. Prominent lecturers for the club included three of its faculty members— Prof. James G. Carroll, Prof. Edgar W. Timberlake, and Dr. Hermon M. Parker. A former member of the club who met with them only a few times last year. Dr. Hubert Poteat. will become the Imperial Potentate of the Shrine of North America next year. Probably the highlight of the year ' s activities was the banquet which the organization had near the end of the school year. The banquet was held in the school cafeteria and attracted as the principal speaker, Leon Gray. Mr. Gray is a long time Mason and superintendent of the Oxford Or- phanage.

The lour officers who headed die student body this year were: T. Lamar Caudle, President; Grady L. Friday. Vice-President; Vivian Snuggs, Secretary; and James B. Patton, Treasurer. These students did their appointed jobs largely through (heir work with the Student Council, which, as provided in the constitution, they also headed. They were elected in the Spring of 1949, in a very heated and close campaign. STUDENT COUNCIL This year ' s Student Council was one of the hardest working groups to lead Wake Forest students in recent years. The primary interest of the Council was the furtherance of the Honor System. A poll of campus opinion was taken concerning cribbing, and a constitutional amendment was recommended to the Student Legislature. The number of cases of cheating tried by the Council this year far exceeded the normal number. Pub- lic announcement of the action of the Council was instituted. Trial procedure was reworked in an effort to simplify it. The Council, however, did not confine its ac- tivity to the Honor System, but spent money and effort to promote other activities in the interest of the student body. The Council also elects the Freshman Advisory committee. mkMr fxjfk , b LL .L. m m Hi H | 1 1 ' M j mm ■ |5  First Row: Raymond E. Bauer, James B. Patton, Vivian F. Snuggs, Grady L.

Vivian Hiers led the Women ' s Government Council through a particularly active year. Postal service for the women ' s dorms was set up, and dormitory fire drills were organized. The Women ' s Government Council began the idea for a vocational guidance program and for sponsoring a foreign student. Jewell Adams headed the Social Standards Committee and inaugurated several new activi- ties including dormitory teas feat uring noted lecturers, open houses at Christmas, after-exam teas, Friday night dances at the Community House, co-ed balls, and a fashion show. Two mem- bers represent the co-eds on the Student Council. SOCIAL STANDARDS COMMITTEE The Social Standards Committee of the Women ' s Government directs and plans the social calendar for the school year and in general upholds the social standards of the College. This year, under the capable guidance of Jewel Adams and her committee of 10 girls, the Coed group sponsored a square dance for the freshmen at the beginning of the term. Friday night dances at the community House, a Coed Ball on St. Patrick ' s Day and another on May Day, exam teas, open house at the women ' s dorms at Christ- mas, tea lectures, and a Spring fashion show.

BAPTIST STUDENT UNION The Baptist .Student Union has always been an integral part of life on the campus. It per- forms an indispensable service by providing re- ligious activities in which every student may find a place. This year the organization has had two aims. First, believing that religion should not be placed in a vacuum, it has sought lo integrate the religious activities with other campus activities. Every effort has been made to enlist as many- lay students as possible, and for the first time in many years, a non-ministerial student, Alton Hall, was elected president of the B. S. U. Organiza- tions other than those of a religious nature were encouraged to take charge of the Fellowship Hour on Sunday nights, and many of these groups responded. Second, it has made an effort to link the re- ligious activities on the campus more closely with the local church. The financial system of the college group has been changed so that the B. S. U. operates through the church. Also, the College Training Union and Church Training Union have been brought under the same director. The College Sunday School of- fering now goes directly into the church treas- ury. In all these ways, the student comes to ex- press his religious need more directly through the church. The extension department of the B. S. U. also has been active this year. By sponsoring youth revivals and programs in the rural churches, it has helped stimulate the interest of the voting people of these communities in religious activities. Another important contribution of the B. S. U. this year in cooperation with the college and church is the sponsorship of two weeks of special services during the second semester. In February, Dr. R. C. Gresham was guest speaker. A week of pre-Eastcr services was presented by Dr. Hu- bert Poteat, with Seth Lippard, student, singing at three of the services and on Friday evening the Church choir presenting ■ ' The Crucifixion. With its many varied activities, the B. S. U. provides us with a coordinated program of re- ligious activities through which one develops the spiritual side of college life necessary for a well- rounded student. 116 - First Row: Dover, Miller, Smith. Second Row: Sloan, Wright, Stith, Johnson. BAPTIST TRAINING UNION The Baptist Training Union, which aims to train in church membership, is one of the dynamic religious organizations on the campus, for every member is given the opportunity to develop in public speaking, leadership ability and spiritual insight. In September and July of this year, officers were given special training in clinics designed to orient the newly elected persons to their jobs. A B. T. U. study course, led by Prof. Robert Helm, based on the book, Understanding the Christian Faith, was presented in the fall for the benefit of Union members. Special missionary projects were carried out by each union. These included the provision of recreation equipment to a home for delinquent boys and the sending of packages to a badly burned child in a Raleigh hospital. Many interesting and inspirational opening assembly programs, notably the nativity play That Strange Night, were presented during the year. Perhaps the outstanding project of the B. T. U. this year was the promotion of better racial re- lations. In the fall several of the unions com- bined to witness an informal round table discussion between a group of college students and a group of boys and girls from the local Negro high school. During the spring semester, the B. T. U. ex- changed programs with the training union at Shaw University in the hope that becoming acquainted would help break down the barrier of racial prejudice. The unions tried as much as possible to present interesting, original and inspirational programs. Average attendance each Sunday was close to a hundred. Most of the members were pretty faithful. Harry Wright served as director of the or- ganization. Wendell Sloan was associate director and Evelyn Faulk, secretary. There were six unions: the Lee, the Rcid, the Howard, the Forum, the Gillespie and the Cullom. They met first in the Alumni building and the church and later in the Religion Building. Gen- eral assembly programs were held at first in the church sanctuary and later in the Little Chapel. The five presidents of the unions pictured above are Hugh Dover, Joe Miller, Harriet Smith, Bob Stith and Jimmy Johnson. 117 First Row: Leonard Rollins, Tom Mezger, Nathan C. Knowles, David N.

This year, the conference sponsored a devotional radio program each evening, and a special week YWA A tea at Mrs. Glenn Blackburn ' s for the new coeds and pajama parties in the girls ' dorms suc- ceeded in enlisting most of the coeds on the cam- pus in the Young Women ' s Auxiliary. Within the various circles of the Y.W.A., empha- sis this year has been centered on community missions and projects, one of which was the pro- viding of hot lunches for a grammar school child of Bible study, led by Miss Mary Herring, re- turned Missionary from China. These activities were in accord with the Conference ' s aim to give each young minister laboratory experience to develop his ability for the ministry. Leonard Rollins served as president this year. during the school year. Other circles donated clothing and food baskets to needy families, and sent CARE packages to a German orphanage. In December, Dr. Alex Herring, returned mis- sionary from China, during a week of special services, discussed the effect of Communism on Bap- tist mission work in China. Student planned pro- grams were presented at monthly circle meetings Sholar, Neilsen, Duckworth, Sheffield, Watson, Weathers, Vendrick, Wright, Deane, Wallace, Arnold, Hayes, Beard, Law- rence, Hiers, Nelson, Barnes, Ward, Higdon, Morris, Oldham, Smithwick, Raynor, Macey, Hawks, Bullard, Reavis, Jack- son, Bass, Harrell, Greene, Perry, Willis, Reed, Snyder, Boone, Younts, Brooks, Baker, Martin, Smith, Kimball, Lyde.

CHRISTIAN SERVICE GROUP One area of the work of the Christian Service Group is the mission work carried on in the colored section of Wake Forest. Every Friday night a group of these students met with a group of Wake Forest Negroes for prayer meetings, which have proved beneficial to everyone attending. Another project is the extension work being done in the small rural church in Leesville. With a student pastor and Sunday School teachers from the College, interest has grown in the com- munity, and church membership has almost doubled. One of the best known activities of the Christian Service Group is associated wth Wake Forest Christmas traditions. Christian Service Group sponsors Christmas caroling and the distribution of baskets among the needy. Christian Service Group members learn through their work that unselfish service is an essential part of the Christian way of life. The Christian Service Group sponsors morning watch every morning at 7:30 in the Little Chapel at which time various students present a thought for the day and a period of prayer is observed. Vespers takes place every evening at 6:30 in the Church. It follows about the same procedure as morning watch. The Christian Service Group meets on the first Thursday of every month. Special speakers are brought in to lead the members in thoughts on how they may best serve as Christians. Several successful clothing drives are usually sponsored by the group during the year. These clothes are distributed to the needy people in Europe. The Christian Service Group enjoyed several socials this year — one at Rock Springs and several in the Rec room. Mrs. Owen F. Herring serves as adviser to the organization. 119 First Row: Rev. Colby, Livingstone, Cook, King. Second Row: Clark, Randolph, Schulken, Williams. Third Row: Hamilton, Kizer. CANTERBURY CLUB The Wake Forest Canterbury Club promotes fellowship among the Episcopal students. This year, meetings were held every other Wednesday night in the Music-Religion Building and services were held on Sunday mornings. Programs lor the year included guest speakers, visitors from other college Canterbury Clubs, and several social functions. The Wake Forest group also visited St. Mary ' s and Duke for meetings and socials with their clubs. Under the capable presidency of Dick Clark and the leadership of Rev. Coby, club adviser from Louisburg, the Canterbury Club experienced a profitable and enjoyable year. RELIGIOUS EDUCATION CLUB The keynote sounded in the Religion Education Majors ' Club this year was practical experience. Conducting music extension work and study courses in rural churches, working with the Negro, and holding worship services in Raleigh churches are among the services rendered. In addition the club took a religious census, did special work with training unions, had charge of the nursery during church services and W.M.U. meetings. and, in short, did work in almost every field of religious education. On the Club programs appeared outside speak- ers, College professors, and people active in state religious educational work. In addition, members profited by musical, visual aid, and other pro- grams that helped present religious education in a more comprehensive light. Dr Marc Lovelace served as adviser to the club.

And under the direction of Professor Thane MacDonald and president Bob Redwine the Choir had a successful year. Forty men and women were chosen from the Glee Club this year to constitute the organization. On Monday. Wednesday and Friday through- out the year the Choir sat in a body on the stage of the chapel. And at different times during the year the Choir presented programs during the chapel period. The choir ' s repertoire included ' ' pop songs which the student body received happily. When the North Carolina Baptist State Con- vention met on the campus in November, the Choir sang before the assembly. In March, during spring holidays, their colorful old gold and black robes traveled over i ,200 miles for the third annual tour. During this tour of one week the group gave a total of eighteen concerts in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia. In addition to the regular spring tour the group made several other trip s to Elizabeth City, Hert- ford, Edenton, and Oxford where they presented programs under the auspices of the Baptist Churches in those areas. George Cribb was accompanist for tin- group and Robert Kncuttner was featured as solo vio- linist. Again this year the Choir was invited to broad- cast concerts, originating on the campus through the facilities of VV ' PTF in Raleigh. Some of these concerts w : ere part of a series. The Collegiate Hour ' ' featuring music from North Carolina col- leges. During the Magnolia Festival the Choir gave its annual sacred music concert in the Baptist Church. The Choir also sang for the guests of the gradu- ating class at Commencement. During the year the Choir appeared in Temple Baptist Church in Raleigh and gave a concert in the Little Chapel on the campus for the Faculty Wive ' s Club. The programs include both sacred and secular numbers by members of the choir and special numbers by the Male Quartet composed of Gus Grose, Charles Greene, Frank Vandall. and Henry Miller.

GLEE CLUB The seventy-five voice Wake Forest College Glee Club, under the direction of Professor Thane MacDonald, had a full and successful season. For the fourth consecutive year the Glee Club presented Handel ' s immortal Messiah in the Chapel on December fourth as a part of the eleventh annual Christmas Vesper Services. For the first time, student soloists were featured. These were: Iris Harrington, contralto; Charles R. Greene, tenor; and Seth Lippard, baritone-bass. Mrs. Charles M. Allen, soprano, was the only non- student to take a solo part. During the annual Magnolia Festival, the Glee Club and the Band gave a joint open air musical program in front of the Chapel. The highlight of the program was the finale, some of Stephen Foster ' s songs of the South rendered by both groups in unison. The Glee Club served as the chapel choir at each assembly and also presented several programs for the student body. To assist the Wake Forest College Opera Work- shop, members of the Glee Club played the parts of the ladies and gentlemen of the chorus in The Sorcerer, part of The Opera Workshop ' s program, An Evening of Opera. From the Glee Club thirty-eight students are chosen to compose the A Cappella Choir. Rehearsals were held twice a week under the direction of Professor MacDonald. Pianist: Cribb.

Accompanying the Opera Workshop in its presentation of The plete without the half-time routines of a band and its majorettes. This group not only performed at all home games, but also journeyed to games at Duke, Carolina, Clemson and State, representing Wake Forest College very admirably. Later in the year, they traveled to Tarboro to parade in the Hospitality Day celebration there. Bartered Bride and The Sorcerer and assisting the Clee Club in presenting The Messiah at Christ- mas were only part of the Little Symphony ' s work this year. In addition, it gave a concert during the annual Magnolia Festival, and another concert earlv in the summer. First Row: Hall, Snyder, Knettner, Humber, Meiggs, Goolsby, Cribb, West, Ward, Sheffield.

QUARTET The Men ' s Quartet was composed of Charles Green, first tenor; Gus Grose, second tenor, Henry Miller, baritone; Frank Yandcll, bass; and Pro- fessor Thane MacDonald, director and accompa- nist. T he group appeared in chapel several times and accompanied the choir on its spring tour. Their impromptu programs were much in demand. The quartet also made trips to nearby towns, and broadcast a number of programs. LITTLE THEATER In its most ambitious year to date, the Little Theater produced three successful major pro- ductions. With the new chapel stage and facilities at its disposal, the Little Theater tackled the difficult Cyrano de Bergerac as its fall production. Di- rected by Charles Kincaid, the play was well received during ' the two nights it ran. When Bob Swain, a leading character in the tragedy, was confined to the infirmary on the day before the play was to be given, Julian Burroughs was recruited to fill the part and learned all the lines in less than twenty-four hours. Gus Grose, Charles Greene, Frank Yandell, Henry Miller. Charles Billings directed the winter production, Winterset. P ' or this drama. Dr. H. B. Jones left his classroom to portray Judge Gaunt and steal the show in the Maxwell Anderson play. The fire set and excellent lighting were factors contributing to the success of this production. The year ' s work was climaxed by a three per- formance production of Hamlet, directed by Professor J. C. Drake. Bob Phelps as Hamlet and Jean Johnson as Ophelia played the leads in the classic, which was perhaps the best thing the Little Theater has done to date. New members were initiated at formal ceremonies. First Row Norman Larson, Ray S. Jones, Charlotte Duling, Betty Pringle, Cree Deane, Bud Grainger, Roger R.

PHILOMATHESIAN LITERARY SOCIETY More interest was shown in the Philomathesian Literary Society than ever before. This interets was indicated by the large number of members initiated into the society. Although the Phi ' s lost to the Eu ' s in both the Founder ' s Day and Society Day Contests, their spirit was not dampened. Many highlights added to the success of the year. The two annual ban- quets, one held in the Cafeteria and the other in the Bon Air Club in Raleigh, were a big success. Besides these banquets, quite a few small society Darties were enjoyed. EUZELIAN LITERARY SOCIETY Activity reached a high mark with the Euzelians this year. With Robert Howren and Ed Christ- man as presidents, the society enlisted a large number of new members and began giving them experience in the fields of speech. A new constitution was formed to modernize some points of society procedure. A covenant was made with the Phi ' s establishing definite rules for the contest weeks.

Spring initi- ates were: Carol Oldham, Cecyle Arnold, Ann Kelly, Elva Lawrence, L. W. Pullcn, Dave Clark, Camp Mason. Virgil Moorefield, and Wiley Mitchell. Spring initiation was one of the largest ever held in the history of Pi Kappa Delta. It included the first girls ever to be admitted to the fraternity and freshmen Virgil Moorefield, Camp Mason, and Wiley Mitchell. Officers elected after the initia- tion for 1950-51 were: L. W. Pullen, president; Cecyle Arnold, vice-president; and Elva Lawrence, secretary. The freshmen elected to the fraternity partici- pated in several debate tournaments this year, in- cluding tournaments at Richmond, Charlottesville, Birmingham, and Atlanta. This is the first time in several years that a freshman team has represented the college in more than one tournament. They debated alongside upper classmen in all but one of the tourneys they attended. At the Southern Speech Tournament in Birmingham, Ala., where they met only freshmen teams, they took first place. The girls elected to the fraternity participated in the South Atlantic Forensic Tournament held at Lenoir-Rhync. Here they ranked high in de- bate, extemporaneous and after-dinner speeches, and poetry reading. The girls also participated in nondecisional debates with Duke, State, Johns Hopkins, and Elon. Lamar Caudle and Bob Crouch were the main- stay of the varsity team this year. These two are considered one of the best teams in the South. They attained the highest honor Pi Kappa Delta confers, the Degree of Special Distinction, for which a candidate must have participated in debate for three years on three different subjects, and must have been in at least 18 intercollegiate debates, winning half. Over the season they had a record of 40 wins against five losses. Crouch and Caudle debated the negative of the national query for the year: Resolved that all basic, non- agricultural industries be nationalized in five tournaments. Debating the affirmative in three of these contests were L. W. Pullen and Dave Clark who won 12 and lost eight. Director of Debate, Mr. F. R. Shirley, was named Governor of Pi Kappa Delta regional province. He attained this honor over some of the south- east ' s leading debate coaches.

However, a meeting was arranged and early in September three men were elected to head up the organization: Bill Hensley, President; Leo Derrick, Vice-President; and E. J. Frieden- berg, Secretary-Treasurer. The Board was then able to handle the problems which came under its jurisdiction, and several immediately presented themselves. The radio station, VVFDD, asked to be admitted to the Publications Board. The Board decided that the radio station was a publication, and unanimously elected it a member. Several events, including the admission of WFDD, made the current constitution obsolete, and it was therefore rewritten. The present con- stitution includes WFDD and provides for a division of the former board, setting up a Student on both an operational and policy level and setting up a Faculty Board as a board of review. Another problem was an appropriation for WFDD, which heretofore had not been included in the appropriation for all publications. The Board instituted proceedings to have the trustees provide for this. The Board also had to name editors for both the Old Gold and Blink and The Student, who lost several during the year. The Old Gold and Blat I, lost Bill Bethune to outside work and Herb Paschal to illness when he was forced to resign under doctor ' s orders. The Board named as editor Bill Hensley, who had been Sports Editor of the Old Cold. A similar situation occurred when both the original editors of The Student Bob Sherrill and Bill Underwood, left Wake Forest. Rom Weath- erman was asked to take over and he put out the final issue of the magazine. At the close of the year, coeds became dominant. In April, Betty Isbell, Barbara White and Lee Cain were elected to head up The Howler; Sonny Burroughs and Dan Fagg, WFDD; Jewell Livingston, The Student; and Carol Oldham, Dave Clark and Bob Holloman, the Old Gold and Black.

Bottom Row : Royston, Shirrell, Underwood, Weatherman, Woodruff. 127 O G B HERBERT PASCHAL Editor in Chief There were two edi- torial shakeups on the Old Gold and Mack dur- ing the Fall semester, but in spite of a shaky start the paper main- tained the high stand- ards of respectability it has achieved during its thirty-four years. Bill Bethunc. who was elected Co-editor with Herb Paschal, found it necessary to resign his post in order to have more time for pressing activities. Paschal, carrying on with little more than a skeleton staff, did a remarkable job of putting out an adequate paper until he became ill at mid-year, and his doctor advised his resignation. The Publications Board then elected Paschal ' s Managing Editor, Bill Henslcy, to finish out the year as Editor. Hcnsley took over at the begining of the spring semester, and immediately began reorganizing, securing new talent, and reworking the style and make-up of (he paper. Old Cold then rounded out a successful year with an enthusiastic and conscientious staff. Business Manager, Leo Derrick, aided by a hustling staff, secured enough advertising to pro- vide for well balanced make-up. Ads frequently crowded the news columns, but the Old Gold still did not manage to show a profit, on account of the enormous increase in printing costs. The almost prohibitive charges caused each issue to run in the red, and except for the hard work of the business stall, which even got ads from gaso- line stations, the losses would have been even BILL HENSLEY Editor in Chief LEE DERRICK Business Manager The Sports Page, under the direction of Wiley Warren, mixed in many features with full coverage ol the entire athletic scene. He and his staff were notorious for their punctuality. It was both gratifying and embarrassing, depending on who you were, to know that some copy was ready on Monday. Wiley also helped the page with his own column. Old Gold mid Black covered the campus well. There were the usual stories, such as society meetings, moot courts, religious activities, or- ganizational news, and faculty and administration activities. Bigger stories were found in registra- tions. Little Theater productions, Band and Glee Club performances, ODK and Phi Beta Kappa elections, campus politics. Magnolia Festival. May Court elections, and visiting lecturers. Christ- mas holidays cut down on the coverage and sen- sationalism involved in our murder case, which was probably the story of the year. Ihe whole staff turned to the April Fool Issue with a joyous whoop, and hammed up six pages of good newsprint with outrageous buffoonery. Whether or not it was as comic as the stall ' thought. EDITOR HENSLEY IRONS OUT THE BUGS IN THE OG AND B OFFICE WITH THE HELP OF ASSOCIATE EDITORS BOB HOWEREN AND RAY WYCHE. THE BUSINESS STAFF BRINGS IN THE SHECKLES. DERRICK BEMOANS THE HIGHER COST OF PRINTING TO EDITOR HENSLEY it was certainly the most popular and the most willingly and energetically put together paper of the year. It was the staff ' s only conscious effort of conscious humor. Few newspapers are put to bed quietly and this year ' s Old Gold and Black was no exception. Casual visitors to the office on Tuesday night were inadvertently put to flight, but out of that hubbub a paper regularly came. Each issue began with the editor ' s posting the assignment sheets on the bulletin board every Monday afternoon. Members of the staff checked by to see what their story was about. Most of the news gathering took place on Tuesday afternoons, and by nine o ' clock Tuesday night, two hours after the deadline, most of the copy lay in the wire basket on the steel desk. The business staff had generally finished its preferential ad layout and dummy by then, so there was little conflict with copy readers and headline writers who be- gan to work about then. By two o ' clock, some- times three, another issue of Old Gold and Black was ready for the printer. The Old Gold and Black is more than a campus news gathering agency and a week to week record of what happened. It is also a sounding board for student opinion and a laboratory where aspiring journalists get practical training in writing news and getting it before the public. The letters to the editors made some of the most entertaining reading. There were indignant rebuttals, and fiery opinions, and at least one running battle voiced in the letters columns. Editorials probably evoked more comment than any other one thing in the paper, but their questions deserved to be asked.

WFDD Radio Station II )1 ). the fast growing l .]l) l publications row, reached full maturity this year and took a place of equality beside the newspaper, the maga- zine, and the yearbook. The station was ready for recognition. WFDD easily falls within the classifi- cation of a publication. Not only do its programs require a great deal of writing, both of script material and advertising cop) ' , but one of its primary functions is the daily dissemination of news. There- fore, at the request of Station Manager Woody Woodward, the Publications Board took note of the position and responsibilities of the radio station and with unani- mous action made it a full member of the Board. WFDD continued to expand. Late last year the new studio, with engineering and broadcasting facilities, was remodeled from the old Zcta Chi house located in the lower barracks area south of the Gym. However, adequate office space was still lacking, an unsolved problem until the busi- ness and continuity staffs this year took over the R. C. ' WOODY WOODWARD Manager RAY ROYSTON Business Manager office between The Howler and the Old Gold and Black, on Pub Row. The office was formerly occupied by Drs. Rogers and Powers. Nothing eats up talent as fast as a radio station. It takes a lot of people to keep one going and a lot of people worked for WFDD. Chief Engineer Dave Herring came to the campus before the session opened and got the equipment ready to go on the air on the first day. MELANSON, THOMAS, DERIZIO, LOOK AND LISTEN WHILE RAY STONE GIVES PLAY-BY-PLAY OVER WFDD Woody Woodward and Ray Royston, Station Manager and Business Manager, had already served in those capacities for a semester and so the station swung right into the football season with no trouble at all. Some of the old staff were back. Bill White as Assistant Station Manager, John Nelson as an experienced Chief Announcer, and Ed Best as popular disc jockey on Deaconlite Serenade, the most popular record show in the Wake Forest area. To this nucleus were added eight new announcers, most of whom proved pretty capable. On Best ' s graduation in January they split up the Deaconlite broadcasts. The continuity staff under the direction of Leigh Williams and Ann Stroud, furnished its new office and then managed to stay anywhere from two minutes to five days ahead of its pro- gramming. Generally it was ahead twenty-four hours, which is good for any station. Because of the odd housing arrangement for Wake Forest students WFDD is openly vieing in a narrow radius five hours a day seven days a week with stations at least twenty times more powerful. It came out very well, and several times managed to join WRAL-FM in Raleigh to bring to Wake Forest listeners important sports events which it could not otherwise afford to do. Several games it handled over its own lines. Most of the Big Four baseball and basketball games were so carried, and announced by Bill Bcthune. His ability was easily of professional caliber, and he left WFDD in the Spring to join the WPTF sports staff. Thereafter sports broad- casting was done by Woody Woodward and Rav Stone, who did a commendable job. Every Sunday both morning and evening church services were carried. Other special broadcasts included were the A cappella choir ' s performance of The Messiah, the Wake Forest Band Christmas Concert, Senator Kefauver ' s speech, Senator Gra- ham ' s speech, and the pre-Easter services. In February WFDD became a full member of the Intercollegiate Broadcasting System, and also secured a tie-in with the Mutual Broadcasting System. These contacts gave them important opportunites to carry new shows, both live and canned. Further, the Mutual link gave the station excellent news coverage. As a member of IBS the station receives many special sanctions regarding records, scripts and advertising. The way was thus prepared to serve the student body better. Although its several outside contacts provided a great variety of shows, the staff tried hard to Top: ED DEACONLIGHT SERENADE BEST CHAT- TERS BETWEEN PLATTERS. Bottom: SONNY BUR- ROUGHS MAKES SURE OF ONE LISTENER WHEN HE ANNOUNCES. put as many live shows of local origin as possible on the air. The most successful of these ventures was doubtless Jo Kimsy ' s singing. A couple of hill-billy bands recorded mild sensations. A new staff under Sonny Burroughs and Dan Fagg took over during the months of February and March; and. though still with a very small sub- sidy, carried the station at the same pace and level for the remainder of the year. The last program carried by the station was the complete graduation exercises at which Dr. Tribble was named the new President, something other pub- lications could not mention until the next Sep- tember. i:-:i THE STUDENT The Student had as many editors this year as it had issues. The first number, the Home Coming Is- sue, was planned and largely produced dur- ing the summer months by Editors Bob Sherrill and Bill Underwood. It came out as shed- uled and looked much like The Student de- veloped by Harold Hayes in K)49, with Jay Brubaker filling in for Sot Herring on the cover. The second, the big, climatic Christmas Issue, was longer coming, as Sherrill and Underwood scouted around for talent and tried to put it to work. They weren ' t much encouraged by the fact that several magazines suspended publi- cation. SE 5? ferfTJ BOB SHERRILL Editor ROM WEATHERMAN Editor BERNARD DIXON Business Manager Immediately after the publication of the Christ- mas Issue Underwood and Dick Kelly one of the chief photographers and idea men graduated leaving Sherrill almost alone. On Sherrill ' s re- quest Rom Weatherman was named by the Publi- cation ' s Board, to be co-editor with him. Together these boys started to reorganize the staff, and when Sherrill left school, Weatherman NETTLES, KELLY, STRANGELY INACTIVE, HAVE THEIR PICS SNAPPED 132 put out the third and final Spring Issue. Like the Christmas Issue this final Student featured an excellent cover cartoon by Jay Brubaker, and a comic picture of the month. As a college magazine The Student continued to defy classification. It ran a little of everything. It ran three pointed editorials, and several short stories of considerable merit. The most notable of these was probably Rom Weatherman ' s • ' Care- free for Mother. Still the biggest things in it for most student readers were doubtless the comedy and the picture features. (For which Norm Larson was a frequent model.) Ralph Stowe was the big man on humor, doing many pages of both pictures and copy. His satire on the proposed campus was neat, but his story on the weakling who earnestly endeavoured to develop muscles to win back his girl probably got the most laughs. Bill Underwood also turned out some comic stuff and some of the features done variously by Bill Bethune, Bill Hensley, Johnny Dillon, Bob Howren, Joe Pena, and several others had their comic moments. The magazine ran no poetry, but it did have several short stories by such contributors as Arthur Deerwood, Bobby Butts, and Joe Pena. As usual the art work in The Student was prob- ably as good as college art work anywhere. The bulk of it was done by Art Editor Betty Isbell, who turned out some facile and perceptive il- lustrations in virtually every media, pen and ink, water color, scratch board, and oil. Her line drawings of campus figures aroused a deal of comment. And her work along with Sherrill ' s led many people into a story or an article. Sherrill, though, will mostly be remembered for fine cartoons, which ranged from the grotesque to the satirical. They frequently told as much story in a few lines as did the pictures. Picture work was done largely by Tom Walters and Dick Kelly. These boys were their own idea men, prop men, technicians, photographers, proc- essors, and almost their only critics. However, almost all the photographers on the campus did something for the magazine. Jimmy Anderson covered the Burl Ives story, got Pictures of the Month, and his pin up in the first issue has been much copied since. Johnny Nettles did a lot of camera work in the sports department. It added up to a good, if infrequent Student. SOURCES OF THOSE INSPIRED, IF INFREQUENT STUDENTS. Top: LIVINGSTONE AND FRIEDEN- BERG CHORTLE. Center: THE WALL AND OTHERS Bottom: ART GORE THINKING AGAIN. J. FRIEDENBERG Editor in Chief HOWLER Mum people who worked on The Howl- er will more easily remember the individ- uals who made up its stall than the work that was done. A lot of the work was rou- tine, and nobody went away with the idea that a smaller Howler meant less work. The work started in July 1 949, when Fried- enberg lined up the nucleus of his staff, drew up plans for the book, and made up a tentative dummy. Alec Kizer and Bob Hester were alerted to be on the campus before the session opened and get squared away in advance as much as possible. The first bill, one for a Strobe light, came in in August. Most of the staff were on hand a couple of days before the opening, although the office couldn ' t be used right away. Activity affected the student body in October, when Bob Hester got his crew together to assist the photographer in making portraits, and again to show proofs. About fifty pictures were chosen by a three-girl jury because people did not pick up their proofs. After picture taking Friedenbcrg, Hester, and VIRGINIA JOHNSON Co-Business Manager KENNETH ROYALL Co-Business Manager Stafford Williams sorted and mounted pictures to get the portraits ready for the engraver. At the same time Charlotte Duling and Jewell Living- stone began compiling and preparing Class lists. Both these jobs are tedious and subject to a lot of errors. Keeping them down to a minimum takes time. The photographers, Alec Kizer, Tom Walters, Johnny Nettles, Lyn Lennon, more or less coordi- nated by Betty Jo Ring, tried to get groups to- gether for organizational pictures. The most successful place for this finally turned out to be the Little Chapel, after everything from the Old Well to the stage of the big Chapel had been used. The photographers were also getting as much BOSS RING EXPLAINS A POINT WITH GESTURES.

Kizcr made the trip to Dallas to cover the SMU game and came back with some good pictures and a new battery for the strobe light. This was com- pensated for when a pack and a half of film on Homecoming was ruined. Carol Oldham and Betty Isbell, roommates, got in most of their work later in the year. A lot of Oldham ' s work was in the summer when she got in late copy. She reworked everything and shaped up everything but sports, fraternities, and publi- i atinns. Isbell helped l.i mil the lallei se lions ol the book, particularly the features section. The business staff came up with more pages sold than in any other Howler. By mail they contacted businesses all over the East, and made one sortie en masse, on a selling trip to Winston- Salem, an area in which we expect to do a great deal of business soon. Publication of the 1950 Howler was deliber- ately delayed until the fall, so that the entire college year, including the baseball season, the Magnolia Festival, and Commencement might be covered. This plan has both advantages and disadvantages: it enables a staff to get out a more complete and more satisfying record of the year — especially pleasing to the graduating class; on the other hand, once Commencement is over, the staff disperses, many details are left incomplete, and the whole burden of finishing the book falls on the editor, who must stick by the book throughout the summer, and even into the fall. Editor Ed Friedenburg worked valiantly through the summer and early fall. When the going became rough, Betty Isbell, editor of the 1951 Howler, and her staff came to his aid. With a heave-ho and a long pull all together, they filled in the incomplete details and the book went to press in November. ri ■ i '   . ' %.., ATHLETICS Wake Forest 22-Duquesne 7 The Demon Deacs played under wraps and defeated Duquesne University 22-7 in the season ' s opener. Wake Forest showed a powerful line and a speedy backfield as they completely sub- dued the visiting Dukes. Bill Gregus, Bob Jones, and Nub Smith did the scoring along with Bill Dye, who blocked a punt for a safety. A swelter- ing crowd saw Wake Forest spot their opponents an early touchdown and then come back with a score in each of the first three periods. A hefty line opened the way for several veteran and soph- omore backs who drove for substantial gains all afternoon. Dye, Jim Duncan, Bill George and Ed Bradley racked the Dukes ball carriers for a total of 75 yards rushing while the Baptist were chalking up 278 yards on the ground. SMU 13- Wake Forest 7 The Deacons traveled to Dallas, Texas for their big game of the year and a chance to look at AU-American Doak Walker. The tough Deacons stopped most everything the Mustangs had except Walker ' s passing, and a last quarter pass accounted FOOTBALL for a 13-7 victory. The first half was all Wake Forest as Jim Staton blocked a Walker punt and Bill Gregus bulled his way across the goal line one play later. The Deacons were determined to beat the SMU aggregation and played one of their best games of the year. The sports writers were loud in their praise of the powerful Baptist squad, and the team made quite an impression even in defeat. The loss to SMU was no disgrace. Boston College 13- Wake Forest 7 It took Boston College more than three periods to break the bonds of the Deacons and capture a 13-7 win. The scrappy Deacons led 7-0 going into the last quarter, but Ed Songin connected with his passes and led the Eagles to victory. Wake Forest outplayed the Eagles by a wide margin during all of the first half and controlled the ball most of the game before the last quarter splurge. Nub Smith was the only Deacon able to reach pay dirt and that was on a nice end run. The Deacons fought hard to avenge last year ' s defeat and seemed to have the game on ice until the final minutes of play. It was Wake Forest ' s second defeat in a row. STUDENTS SHOW THEY ' RE RARIN ' TO GO IN TORCH PARADE.  v ' M Georgetown 12-Wake Forest 6 An underdog bunch of Hoyas handed the Dea- cons their second straight upset by capturing a 12-6 victory. Georgetown broke a 6-6 tie with less than three minutes left to play for the win. Wake Forest tried desperately to get their power- ful air and ground attack to click but the Deacs fumbled away most of their scoring chances. The statistics showed 237 yards rushing for the Deacons as compared to 25 for the visitors. End Jim Duncan accounted for the Baptists ' lone touchdown on a pass from Ed Kissell. The Wake backfield ripped the Hoyas ' line all afternoon for long gains, but costly fumbles prevented the Baptists from scoring and caused the third straight loss. North Carolina 28-Wake Forest 14 Wake Forest got its last look at Charlie Justice but not before the Ail-American tailback had scored three times and led his mates to a 28-14 victory. After dominating play in the first period and boasting a 7-0 lead, the Tar Heels fought back and led 14-7 at the half. Blackerby scored first on a quarterback sneak, and Fullback Bill Miller accounted for the remaining tally in the third period. Justice and Dick Bunting controlled the Tar Heel scoring as the Carolinians let it be known that the Deacons were not going to repeat the upset win of 1947. Wake Forest gave Carolina a busy afternoon and played well but victory wasn ' t in the books and the records showed four losses in a row for the Baptists. Wake Forest 55- William and Mary 28 Homecoming was sweet as Nub Smith and Red O ' Quinn put on a show long to be remem- bered. The amazing Nub gained a total of 246 yards rushing, set up three touchdowns and passed for one. O ' Quinn scored three times, while Cregus, Bradley, Miller, Smith, and Pollacci had one tally a piece. The Fcacons were unable to make any mistakes and ran and passed like never before. The big Baptists scored in every period. A host of stars was born that afternoon and the many Alumni sang the praises of the team that had been predicted before the season. Wake Forest was named team of the week and Nub Smith was named Soph of the week by die Associ- ated Press.

Wake Forest 35-Clemson 21 The Deacons continued their winning ways against Clemson ' s conference champions by drub- bing the Tigers 35-2 1 . Dickie Davis and John Solek got the Baptists off to a good start by scoring touchdowns on a punt return and a pass inter- ception. From there Wake Forest let Nub Smith. Red O ' Quinn, and Carrol Blackerbv handle the scoring chores. The Deacs looked good again as their offense clicked with clock-like precision. Both teams gained over 300 yards rushing in a wide open game that left nothing to be desired in the way of thrills. The game was marked by long runs by Ray Matthews of Clcmson and Davis and Solek of the Deacs. NUB SMITH SHAKES OFF WOULD BE TACKLER BOBBY STUTTS MOVES UP TO LEND A HAND. €:,%. FOOTBALI Wake Forest 27- Duke 7 An alert Wake Forest team sparked the bril- liant quarterbacking of Carrol Blackerby and the hard running of Bill Gregus and Bill Miller handed the Blue Devils of Duke their worst licking by a Wake Forest team. The Deacs ' rugged line and hard running backs plowed through the Duke defense all afternoon and marched 96 yards once on plunges by Gregus and Miller with a few short passes for variety. Bob Jones added more em- barrassment on a neat 33-yard run-back of a pass interception. Again the Deacons played smart ball and combined offense and defense to per- fection. The rugged Deacs simply wore down the Blue Devils. N. C. State 27-Wake Forest 14 Anything can happen, and usually does, when the Deacs and the Wolfpack meet on the gridiron. Twenty thousand fans sat amazed as the highly regarded Deacs watched State score three quick touchdowns and build up a lead that could not be overcome. Ed Mooney, sparking the ' Pack, ran wild and the efforts of the Deacs ' vaunted passing attack were nil. Red O ' Quinn saved the Deacs from total embarrassment by snag- ging two touchdown passes after a scoreless first half.

South Carolina 27- Wake Forest 20 An underdog Gamecock team rolled like a ball of fire in the first half and then fought viciously in the last quarter to capture the season ' s finale from Wake Forest 27-20. It was the second up- set in a row for the luckless Deacons and the sixth loss of the season. An epidemic of fumbles and blocked kicks proved too costly for the Deacs. Nub Smith scored for the Deacs on runs of 1 1 and 62 yards, and Dickie Davis sneaked over for the remaining Baptist tally. Ed McClure and the Deacon forward wall was outstanding on defense. The curtain was lowered on Wake Forest football for 1949. Three Deacons were selected on the All-Southern team. John Red ' O ' Quinn, the pass catching sensation, and Bill Gregus, who carried the brunt of the running game repeated on the mythical team, and Guard Ray C ' icia were those honored. Sophomores Nub Smith, Bill Miller, and Dickie Davis were the backfield stars, along with Quarter- back Carrol Blackerby, who engineered the out- standing wins over Duke, Clemson, and William and Mary. In the line it was O ' Quinn, Bill George, Cicia, Jim Duncan, and Captain Ed Bradley that stood out above the rest. COACH WALKER, IN GAME ATTIRE DRAWLS OPINION.

BASKETBALL In spite of a late season comeback the Wake Forest basketball team wound up the season with one of the worst records in years, thirteen wins against fifteen losses. When school started after the Christmas holi- days. Wake Forest had just finished losing three close games in the first annual Dixie Basketball Classic, held at the new coliseum on the N. C. State campus. Wake failed to win a game losing to Georgia Tech 64-57, Rhode Island State 61-57 and Duke 54-52. Ten of the twenty-eight games on the schedule had been played. Only one, against the Quantico Marines, was won (60-45). No one conceded the Deacs a chance of doing anything during the season. However, Coach Murray Greason and his boys had their own ideas of what could be done in the way of accomplishment. They suddenly began to hit their stride and staged one of their strongest finishes in years winning twelve of their remaining eighteen games and finished up the year with the thirteen and fifteen record. The second week of January was easily the most successful of the season. Playing four times in only six days the Deacs upset Tennessee 69-62 and William and Mary 61-49 an d won impressive decisions from Clemson and Furman. From there on out they did very well indeed, beating, among others. North Carolina, who had beaten them all year. Perhaps the hardest fought game of the entire season was the 57-50 loss to the Wolfpack of N. C. State. The Deacs battled it out on even terms until the last quarter, when the Pack pulled from behind and took the Baptists by the seven point margin. Later in the season during the semi- final round of the Southern Conference Tourna- ment, the Deacs once again put a scare into the confident Wolfpack before bowing 59-53 in the last minute of play. The hard-fighting boys from Wake Forest showed their true comeback ability in their test with Duke ' s Blue Devils during their final appearance in the first Dixie Classic. With 12 seconds remaining and the Dukes leading 54-52, Paul Bennett ' s dish shot followed by Naje- way ' s true tap were ruled too late by the official lime and the heartbroken Baptists lost another close one. it EVERY MUSCLE STRAINS AS STAN GRABS THE BALL. The 1950 edition of the Deacon cage squad was a balanced ensemble but with too few experienced reserves. The starting five usually consisted of Muellar and Najeway at the forward posts, A I McCotter, jumping center, and Charlie Kersh and Captain Jim Patton handling the guard slots. Capable reserves Paul Bennett, Buck Geary, Bill Mason, Bill Hartley, and Alton Brooks helped the Baptist cause considerably. Charlie Barnham. Jim Flick, and Norm Muller were valuable sophs but lacked much needed experience. Although no most valuable player award was given, no one man could be singled out as a star, for all the Deacon wins were team victories. How- ever, the Wake Forest version of Mr. Basketball could well have been earned by Stan Najeway, scrapping forward. Center Al McCotter was a constant threat under the boards with superior rebound play. Speed was the slogan of forward Jack Mueller and speculative play was guard Jim Patton ' s forte. Charlie Kersh proved a true Deacon in exceptional ball-handling and board- work. Leading the scoring parade were McCotter and Najeway with 350 and 320 points respectively in the twenty-eight regular season games. Muellar with 214, Kersh with 205, and Patton with 183 round out the scoring for the starters. AL McCOTTER MIXES IT UP WITH CARTIER OF N. C. STATE.

The team was runner up in the district III NCAA tournament, and wound up the season with twenty-four wins against four losses. The team kept its Southern Conference and Big Four championships. Moe Bauer wound up his collegiate career without ever having lost to N. C. State, and Duke and Carolina were covered without too much trouble. In their second year under Lee Gooch the Deacons maintained their superiority over the professional teams in this baseball-mad state, and not only beat class C and D ball clubs but suc- cessfully topped Raleigh, Greensboro, and Rcids- ville of the Carolina League, one of the strongest class B leagues in the country. To this list they added Lumberton and Henderson, a night game, and brought their string to twelve consecutive victories over professional teams in two years. In addition to their record in the big four Wake Forest holds wins over Elon, Michigan State, Davidson, Catawba, Lynchburg, Quantico Ma- rines and the McCrary Eagles. The team started off with a rush of bad luck when their road uniforms burned, but they had practically no bad luck on the diamond that hurt them. Thev won the Southern Conference cham- Co-Captains Teague and Hooks pionship handily. The Southern Conference was divided into a northern division and a southern division this year. The winner of each division met in Greensboro for the championship. Wake Forest from the southern division and Maryland from the northern. Wake Forest won. It wasn ' t until after school was out that Wake lost any important games, when they lost to Alabama in the Division III playoffs for the national tourna- ment. First Row: Signore, Bauer, Kersh, Brooks, Harris, Rogers, Fulghum, Hoch. Second Row Teague, Wrenn, Hooks, Eller, Nicholas, Kinlaw, Davis. Third Row: Small, Livick, Warren, Matney, McCleney, Gooch, McKensie. The Baptisl overall record was an excellent one, but this year the Deacs dropped one game each to State, 1 hike. and Carolina. Not a one of the four games lost were on the home diamond. For the second straight year, the squad placed two men on the Ail- American team. Co-Captains Charlie Tcague and Gene Hooks were selected as repeaters on the mythical team. Hooks was rated as the no. i third basemen andTcague gained the second teamsecond base position. The Baptist pitching may be accredited with most of the wins, for the smooth Wake Forest hurlers were unexcelled in Conference play. Raymond Moe Bauer wound up the season with a record of eight wins and no losses. Calm Harry Nichols, right-handed spced-ballcr, jinxed op- position continuously, while hurlers Max Filer, Dick McClenney, and Charlie Kinlaw were victorious almost at will. Big Joe Fulghum led the team at bat with an overall season ' s average of .4 ' 5 r ). This average is not solely in Big Four Competition. Gene Hooks won the Big Four batting honors with a .428 average. Rifle-armed Art Hoch teamed with fleet Charlie Teague and lanky Wiley Warren to present one of the most feared double-play trios in the nation. The outfield was well-patroled by Joe Fulghum, Charlie Kersh, Paul Harris, Victor Matney and Paul Trink. Infield reserves Oscar Signore and K. Rogers saw much action and proved to be outstanding defensively. Behind the plate the Deacs were very well fortified. Alternating at the catcher ' s post were Buddy Wrenn and Alton Brooks. Ned Davis was the relief catcher behind these two. In addition to regular batting practice pitchers, the Wake Foresters employed a mechanical arm to do the hurling. The first college team in the nation to acquire one, the Baptists pounded the machine ' s pitches in an exhibition affair with the State Wolfpack held in Raleigh, and badly dumped the balls over the fence and the ' Pack in defeat.

GOLF Wake Forest ' s strong golf team lived up to its advance billing as one of the nation ' s outstanding clubs by winning the coveted Southern Inter- collegiate tournament at Athens. Georgia and the Southern Conference title. Playing against the cream of southern golf teams from the Southern, Southeastern, and Southwestern Conferences, the Deacons won both individual and team championships in the sec- tional tourney. Arnold Palmer. No. i ranking linksman on the team, won the individual cham- pionship with an impressive eight under par total of 280 for the 72 hole competition. Wake Forest ' s strong foursome. Palmer, Marvin Worsham, Dick Tiddy and Mickey Gallagher won the team championship with an aggregate of 1,158 strokes. Palmer trailed during the early rounds of the tournament but staged a strong rally to beat North Carolina ' s Harvie Ward by two strokes. In addition to their victory at Athens, Wake Forest won the Southern Conference tournament at Winston-Salem, and went to Albuquerque, N. M. in late June 10 compete for the national NCAA collegiate championship. There they finished fifth, and Arnold Palmer again was medalist. The g( Ifcrs also wound up with an impressive dual meet record with thirteen victories and only one defeat. They held wins over ECTC, South Carolina, Florida, Rollins. N. C. State, Harvard, Michigan, Ohio University, North Carolina, Wil- liam and Mary, Duke, and Davidson. They lost only to North Carolina. The 1950 sextet of Palmer, Worsham, Tiddy, Gallagher, Edens, and Harris, was unquestion- ably the strongest golf team in Wake Forest ' s history, and its record this year in intercollegiate activity is approached only by the debate squad. Arnold Palmer and Marvin Bud Worsham tied the Carolina Country Club course record in Raleigh by shooting 64 ' s. Dick Tiddy, the biggest man competing in athletics at Wake Forest, won the driving contest during the National tournament with a drive of 340 yards. Sonny Harris was the last Deacon to be eliminated from the National tournament — bowing out in the semi-finals. In addition to the very potent sextet of Deacon golfers mentioned thus far, the powerful Baptists also proved their reserve strength. Three capable replacements turned up in the Deacon golf camp in the persons of Bob Yancey, Jennings Agner, and Clyde Randolph. These men played im- portant roles in the Deacons ' victories but Yancey will be the only one of the three that will be eligible for competion next year. Other promising individuals were Jim Flick and Russell Tiddy who should boost the Deacon link hopes next season. 14H FRESHMAN ATHLETICS The biggest thing in freshman athletics this year was the surprise football team, coached by Taylor Sanford. No one expected the Baby Deacs to show much against any of their opponents, especially the highly touted freshmen elevens the other members of the big four were fielding. But the frosh came through in grand style and lost only to Duke, the powerhouse indicating Duke ' s reemphasis of foot- ball. Spencer, Sprock, Lewis, Gaona, were all big guns with the Baby Deacs. After losing to Duke the Frosh went to Winston-Salem where they met and defeated the Carolina freshman squad, in a game that had enough thrills to be entertaining. They then showed up their big brothers licking the N. C. State frosh, took on Willi am and Mary and whitewashed South Carolina. Sports writers throughout the state spoke in glowing terms about the Wake Forest squad. One thing that was good for a lot of publicity was the size of the squad. There were only twenty three men on the bench when the team went to Winston to beat Carolina. In all only thirty men reported for freshman football, and of those fifteen were candidates for backfield positions. Bui what they lacked in numbers they more than made up in scrappincss and fighting ability. JOE WARREN TAKES TO AIR FOR HOOK SHOT.

WOMEN ' S SPORTS Jo Hunter and Connie Hart watch Jennie Johnson drive. Women ' s sports on the campus are conducted and sponsored by the Women ' s Recreation Associ- ation, in which every coed is automatically en- rolled. This year under the guidance of faculty advisers Dot Casey and Marjorie Crisp and president Bess Abolila, an extensive program of compctions were carried out. A new plan was used for competi- tions. The old four-team system was abandoned and floor teams were adopted. Each floor in each dorm now has a team, making six teams in • ill. Competitions are arranged in tournament order, with a manager for each tournament, who is re- sponsible for seeing that all games are properly played and credited. Plaques for each sport are given the dorm that wins and are displayed in the parlors. The plaque is not permanent and a dorm can keep a plaque only as long as it wins that particular sport. Tournaments were held in field hockey, Softball, volleyball, tennis, badminton, golf, basketball, archery, horseshoes, shuffleboard, table tennis, bowling, and swimming. In addition for the first time this year the W.R.A. sponsored coed tournaments, in two sports — golf and tennis. Needless to say, women physical education majors closely tied in with the W.R.A. and spon- sored several events for coeds. WOMEN ' S RECREATION ASSOCIATION First Row: Hunter, Myrick.

Two hundred students enrolled at the Bowman Gray School of Medicine later in the week bringing the total enrollment to about 2,147 students. For the third consecutive year enrollment figures set a record. The freshman class, in keeping with the trend of the last two years, set a new record of its own, 459 students making their initial appear- ance on the campus at the matriculation of under- classmen September 14 and 15. A total of 1.763 students were registered in academic school, while the School of Law ac- commodated another 182. The enrollment of undergraduates exceeded last year ' s figures by 230, and the School of Law showed a slight increase. The number of veterans declined, however, with only seven hundred and twenty-five entering school this Fall as compared with the 9 f last year. The mechanics of registration which everyone fumbles through are familiar enough. Seniors register first. This is to insure their getting the courses they need, but for many it only means that they sit down front in chapel. Then comes a complicated alphabetical registration of under- i lassmen, and the rush and hubbub reach highest pitch. Everyone goes through the same steps. First through the Registrar ' s office for past records, and all the new forms. In the rotunda the administa- tive forms are filled out and the veterans separated from other students. Then to the bursar ' s office to pay the fees and receive the athletic book, non- transferable. Down to the Gym to pick courses, hours, sections, professors, and to be assigned a seat in chapel. Then up to the book stole to lay in supplies, and say hello to a lot of people. Of course people have been constantly greeting one another everywhere from Penn Station south, and the big meeting place is the dorm section of fiat house. The scramble for post office boxes brings a few acquaintances together also, but at any rate, before the B.S.U. has carried many trunks, before rooms are properly straightened, and books properly signed plans have been made for the coming week end and or the first home game. But the turmoil and confusion surrounding registration is not fatal. It serves to put the stu- dent completely back in college. Registration is SOME GRIN SOME CHAGRINNED AS REGISTRATION LINE PROCEEDS SLOWLY. a time to renew acquaintances, and in spite of many comments to the contrary many people look forward to it. Note the number of people that reach the campus as much as two days before they are scheduled to matriculate. This year 725 World War II veterans are reg- istered, a decrease of almost 200 from last year. The fact (hat the number of veterans enrolled is decreasing, coupled with the fact that the regis- tration continues to climb is an indication that heavy enrollments are here to stay. 154 Left: SOME KEEP REGISTERING BUT RAPER HAS HAD ENOUGH OF THIS RIGAMAROLE. RIGHT: THE LINE GETS LONGER AS SNYDER GETS RICHER IN BOOK BOOM. In spite of the ever present complaints about the lon lines and closed classes for late registrants, the present registration system has finally worked out. For the past few years, the new system has been in the experimental stages and has been the target of much criticism. The smooth operation of this year ' s procedure seems to have convinced everyone that the system has been perfected. Dean Bryan said that the faculty and admin- istration had the least post- registration confusion in the recent history of the college. Of course North Carolina leads the states with the number enrolled, but twenty-six states and iwo foreign territories, Alaska and Trinidad, are represented. There arc two main reasons for the increasing number of students registered: jobs on the out- side are getting scarce, and the new Business Administration School has been installed. Natur- ally with the registration rising, living accommo- dations are taxed almost to capacity. Only a few new rooming places have been established since last spring. Some 140 academic courses are offered this year, twenty-seven of which are new or substituted courses. Nine new members have joined the faculty. 155 HOMECOMING On October 2 1 , after a week of fervent prepa- ration, the campus of Wake Forest College asumed an appropriate air for the annual Homecoming Day. The Friday night pep rally began the week- end ' s activities in a big way. A parade started in the circle at Wait Hall and marched around the campus. Professor MacDonald and the band were on hand to give their support to the rally. Head cheerleader Ray Jones and campus comedian Doc Murphrey led the rally in the gymnasium at the end of the march. By the end of this part of the festivities, the students were in the mood for the game. Freshmen of course were required to attend the rally, but many upper classmen joined them. Because of rain, the scheduled shirt-tail parade and the bonfire were called off. Once agin the campus was dotted with alumni, their families, old friends, and guests, back slap- ping, handshaking, story-telling, as they strolled among the brick walks and among the magnolias. And in front of the fraternity houses to examine the gay displays erected there. Thousands of people saw the Wake Forest students forget their studies at Groves Stadium, where the Demon Deacons suprisingly beat William and Mary. The 55-27 score indicates the razzledazzle kind of football that kept fans standing most of the time. Saturday night men from the twelve social frats and their dates journeyed to the Raleigh Memorial Auditorium to dance to the music of Dean Hudson, to cap off the week end ' s entertain- ment. Homecoming is always colorful and one of the most colorful features at any Homecoming is the fraternity displays. These displays are selected by vote in the fraternity. Frequently a whole fraternity will take several weeks to build one display. The work is usually done secretly in an attic, so that no fraternity will know what sort of display another will have. Certain regulations govern construction. Two aie very important. First, the amount of money that may be spent is restricted. Second, erection can not start before midnight Friday. It generally starts right at midnight and continues until game time. A team of judges examines each display and a MUSIC BY DEAN HUDSON SETS THE MOOD FOR THE FORMAL DANCE HELD IN THE RALEIGH AUDITO- RIUM. trophy is awarded. This year the trophy went to Delta Sigma Phi, whose display was built under the direction of cartoonist Donkle Paschal. Always a big feature at Homecoming is the half- time ceremonies at which time the student body leaders and their sponsors are introduced. This year William and Mary sent a delegation of their student officers for the affair. Not only were the frats preparing lor the annual events, but the local restaurants were also making preparations to serve the large crowd. The cam- pus was given a good clean-up by the Building and Grounds men so as to impress the alumni and visitors. The State Highway Department sent a large group of patrolmen over to direct traffic and aid game-goers in parking their cars. The 12.000 victory-starved fans were jubilant over the impressive score. It was a great day for Coach Walker and his team. Those who attended the Interfraternity dances had much to make them happy. More color was added to this year ' s Home- coming by the appearance of old gold and black handkerchiefs in the Wake Forest cheering sei tion. These were incorporated into several yells, al- though, of course, the William and Mary sup- porters got the greatest effect from their use. Thus with lots of grads, a good game and a good dance. Homecoming was judged entirely successful.

Edmond Rostand ' s Cyrano de Bergerac, one of the most poignant of love stories, at once tragic and comic, was the lirst production in the Little The- ater ' s ambitious program for the year. In a way the campus looked on the production .is a test for the organization. The group passed, although the play was largely a personal triumph for Bob Phelps. Phelps was chosen for the part of Cyrano by Charles Kincaid, who as director had to as- semble the largest cast ever used in a Little Theater production. Bob Swain and Joanne Haywood, freshmen, were chosen to play Roxanne and Christian. However. Swain became ill, and about twenty-four hours before the curtain the role was taken over by Sonny Burroughs. Others in tin- cast were Charlotte Duling, Clyde Randolph, George Spence and Norm Larson. Cyrano played November 14 and 15. It was the first play to be presented in the new chapel, and all was not reach ' for it. Backstage crews had to fight all sorts of make-shift devices including temporary lighting. The sets and costumes were two of the best things about the performance. Prof. Charles M. Allen designed the sets, and the costumes came from Van Home. In spite of the handicaps mentioned the Little Theater did win over many who doubted the wisdom of what seemed an over-ambitious pro- gram . 158 CYRANO DE BERGERAC Above- CYRANO THREATENS CAVALIER WHO INSULTED HIS PROBOSCIS.

Before the Christmas holidays Wake Forest al- ways manages to hold a great array of celebra- tions and performances to usher in the season. All groups on the campus participate, either collectively or individually. Social frats, religious organizations, dormitory units, clubs, individuals all do something to celebrate the oncoming season. This year was about the same as usual. Fra- ternities all had parties and Christinas dances. Several frats had special projects to help needy families or persons. And a number held organized sings on the campus. The caroling with the longest tradition was done by the Christian Service Group and their guests around town, and the CSG also distributed Christmas baskets. The Choir performed Handel ' s oratorio The Messiah again before a packed chapel. It was probably the most successful performance yet. When it ended most of the audience attended the open houses being held in Bostwick and Lois Johnson dorms. Other activities during the week before holidays were professional fraternity ' banquets and initi- ations. The Band also put on a performance, a JULIE WATSON SERVES WHILE CARROLL WEATHERS LOOKS FOR SANTA.

Another one of the highlights was Dr. H. B. Jones ' s annual reading of the Christmas Carol. The final phase of all pre-Christmas activity is always the preparation for the trip home. This caps off the whole period with its attitude at once both gay and sober, that makes the week of Christ- mas festivities one of the greatest times to be at Wake Forest. PROFESSOR MACDONALD SEEMS TO NEED FOUR HANDS FOR DUAL FEAT. THE INTER-FRATERNITY COUNCIL I The [nter-Fraternity Council is the governing and coordinating body of social fraternities on the campus. Each of the ten social fraternities is allowed two delegates to the council. The senior delegate is the more experienced of the two and represents his fraternity in Noting procedures. He is accompanied by a junior delegate who has no voting privilege but who is allowed to enter the debates on proposed legislation. The main pur- pose of the junior delegate is to prepare himself to move into the senior representative ' s place on the council in the coming year. From the twenty members of the council, live officers are elected each spring to lead the council for the following year. These include a president, vice-president, secretary, treasurer, and program chairman. Thus, the fraternity men of Wake Forest College are provided with an efficient legislative body to help the lodges in maintaining a worthwhile program of recreation for their men. The council performs other functions too, such as sponsoring charity drives, promoting inter-fraternity fellow- ship, and encouraging a closer integration of fra- ternities into the whole of campus life. The customary objectives of the council were carried out very successfully in 1949-1950 under the leadership of President Johnny Pate. Also, the council concluded the revision of the con- stitution. This process had been started the previ- ous year. The renovated document carried several reforms which proved to be very satis- factorv. These included new rushing rules and the confinement of the council solely to social fraternities in scope. In order to increase in efficiency, the council carried on a constant program to strengthen the fraternity movement on the campus. They were aided in this objective b suggestions obtained from the National Inter-Fraternity Council Con- ference held in Washingon, 1). C. in (he spring. Johnny Pate and Riley Burgess represented the local chapter at the convention. The organization began the 1949-50 Near with its customary supervision of tin- rushing program and pledging in the fall. The council drew up and published regulations which were responsible for the orderly program of smokers. Each fra- ternity was allowed one afternoon and one evening smoker in order to meet the prospective frat men. On the heels of the pledging ceremonies came Homecoming and the council did its part to heighten interest in the William and Mary-Wake Forest encounter. The traditional cup presented by the Inter-Fraternity Council to the Fraternity with the best Homecoming decoration Nvcnt to Delta Sigma Phi. FolloNving the football game, frat men and dates joined in the caravan to the Memorial Auditorium in Raleigh. There, they danced to the music of Dean Hudson and his Orchestra at the first council- sponsored dance of the school year. The fall of the Near also brought with it intra- mural football and the council played an impor- tant part again. It presented one of its four trophies for athletics to Kappa Alpha for winning out in the fraternity touch-football league. The approach of Christmas meant that the council was to supervise the planning of parties again but there Nvas another important job. Under sponsorship of the council, the fiats prepared Christmas baskets for needy families and held parties for underprivileged children. The Spring semester was a full one for the Inter-Fraternity Council. It included two dances, several charity drives and an extensive recreation program. During this semester, the fraternity league embraced three sports. Pi Kappa Alpha look the tropin in the basketball season. Delta Sigma Phi earned the volleyball trophy, and Kappa Sigma won the Softball cup. Besides these trophies presented by the council in sports, a scholarship tropin was awareded at the end of the Near. Theta Chi took this, the most coveted of Inter-Fraternity Council awards. In the latter part of February, the council sponsored its biggest social function of the year. The Mid-Winters dances were held at Memorial Auditorium in Raleigh with Tony Pastor and Orchestra, a Deacon favorite, affording the music. The week-end included a Friday evening semi- formal dance, a Saturday afternoon tea dance, and the customary Saturday evening formal. Again in April, the council held its spring dance in the auditorium with Johnny Satterfield and Band doing the instrumentals. The dance Nvas the perfect climax to a Near of successful dances and recreation for the fraternity men of Wake Forest College. The council also encouraged the participation ol all fraternities in charitable work and led the way by cooperation with and donation to the Community Chest, Red Cross, ( ' .nicer Drive, and March ol Dimes. The council also adopted a War ( hphan through the help of a rehabilitation organization in New York. The council paid for 162 WAKE FORESTERS JAM MEMORIAL AUDITORIUM TO DANCE TO THE MUSIC OF TONY PASTOR AT AN INTER- FRATERNITY COUNCIL DANCE. the subsistence of Yassilios Popadoupoulas. a young Greek boy who had lost both parents during World War II. The council promoted closer relations between fraternities and other organizations. One of the principal ways of accomplishing this objective was the council-sponsored program of Fellowship Hours on Sunday night in connection with the Baptist Student Union. Each fraternity sponsored one of these Sunday night recreational meetings in the recreation room of the Religion Building. The Council also took part in the Rock Springs project. This effort to established a recreation area near Groves Stadium was completed with the aid of the frats, who pitched in and did a large part of the work. Near the end of the school year, the council closed out a successful season by planning the fraternity calendar for the coming year. Officers for the year were: Johnny Pate, presi- dent; Brownie Wallace, Vice-President; Bob Mau- ney, secretary; Bill Penny, treasurer; Paul Wil- liams, social chairman; and Dr. John W. Xowell, facultv adviser. 163 ■ v «i 6. a. DR. JONES EMOTES AS BILL MITCHELL SAUNTERS THROUGH. WINTERSET Winterset was the Little Theater ' s second production of the year. It was produced on February 22 and 23, and in addition to a large elaborate set, it had Professor H. B. Jones, the head of the English department, playing the part of Judge Gaunt. It was a praiseworthy performance. Charles Billings directed the Maxwell Anderson drama, and Sunny Snyder and Bob Swain, a pair of freshmen, played the romantic leads. Seventeen other students, including George Spence, Bill Waddell and Bill Mitchell, had roles, but nearly a hundred students worked on various stages of the pro- duction. The set, student designed, was one of the most elaborate and effective the Little Theater has ever used. Attendance at Winterset went over the five hundred mark, and fans began looking forward to Hamlet. Opposite: JUDGE GAUNT, ABLY PLAYED BY DR.

They were the dullest in years. There was no campaigning to speak of. No sensational devices at all. Freshman limited them- selves to posters and handbills ex- clusively. In spite of the competi- tion brought on by the largest number of nominees in history no candidate conducted a campaign that captured the fancy of his class- mates and the applause of upper classmen. But if the usually lively frosh elections were cold, the annual po- litical battle of the spring session was dead. In the past two strong parties used airplanes, swing bands, radio, and huge sight gags to get out the vote. This year even the party liners seemed apathetic. The two major nominees were Piggy Davis and Ed Christman. Neither manager of cither party was able to excite an) - real interest in the campaign. Even when the ballots were being counted and the results posted hardly more than a hundred stu- dents wailed in the book store. The voting, though light, gave a one sided victory to the Progressive Fraternity Party. Only two people were able to break the solid front of tin- fraternities and their check lists. They were Bob Auffarth, ministerial student and varsity foot- ball, player, and Betty Isbell, a coed from Arlington, Virginia. A list of those elected follows: PUBLIC GETS INFORMED RESULTS.

I am el is more frequently looked on wit h awe than it is performed, but the Little Theater, with ability to match its bravado, played Hamlet on Ma 6, 8. and 9, and did a commendable job. Bob Phelps as Hamlet, Betty Jo Ring as Gertrude, and Jean Johnson as Ophelia, turned in per- formances that would do credit to any professional. Other leaders in the cast were Bob Howren, George Spence, John Gibson, and Glyde Randolph. Professor Justus Drake directed the production, and Professor Gharles M. Allen designed the sets, which were effective. The play was scarcely cut but moved well. The large cast was in rehearsal much longer than usual for a Little Theater play, but the long preparation was fruitful. Hamlet was easily the best thing the Little Theater has ever done.

TRIBBLE NEW PRESIDENT Wake Forest College chose its tenth president Monday. June 5, 1950. The Wake Forest College Board of Trustees unanimously elected Dr. Harold Wayland Tribble, 50-year-old President of An- dover Newton Theological School in Massachu- setts, as its new leader. Dr. Tribble was elected at a meeting of the Board prior to the commencement exercises. In an- nouncing Fribble ' s election, Dr. Casper C. Warren of Charlotte, chairman of an eight man com- mittee appointed to select a new president, as- serted that I know of no man on earth who will do a better job of unifying our forces and leading the college in this crucial era of its history. War- ren added that the committee selected Dr. Tribble for the presidency after due and full consideration of approximately thirty-five men. Tribble succeeds Dr. Thurman 1). Kitchin, 64, president of Wake Forest since 1930, who retires from that capacity on July 1 . 1 950. Dr. Kitchin THURMAN D. KITCHIN President Emeritus is not leaving Wake Forest, though. As accords his own wishes, he was elected by the Board to the positions of President Emeritus and Professor of physiology and hygiene. This will not be an un- familiar role to Dr. Kitchin who taught for about fifteen years before his election to the presidency of the college. At the time, in 1930, he was serving as Professor and Dean of the Medical School of Wake Forest College. His career represents some 47 years of close association with the college since his enrollment here in 1902. Dr. Tribble has had wide experience in academ- ic circles, and comes to Wake Forest after having served as President of Andover-Newton Theological School in Newton, Massachusetts since 1947. He was born in the university town of Char- lottesville, Virginia. He attended the University of Richmond as a ministerial student. There he held several student pastorates, played varsity basketball, served on the Inter-Fraternity Council, and edited the under-graduate paper. He graduated from Richmond in 191 9. The same year he was ordained as a Baptist minister and entered the Southern Baptist Seminary at Louisville, Kentucky. At the Seminary he re- ceived a degree as Master of Theology in 1922. He remained at the Seminary as assistant to Dr. F. Y. Mullins, and on Dr. Mullins ' death succeeded him as head of the Department of Theology. I )r. Tribble has also studied at the University of Bonn, Germany, the University of Basel, Switz- erland and has a degree of Doctor of Philosophy from the University of Edinburg, England. He is further the author of several books on theology written primarily for the layman. They arc: Ow Doctrines, The Baptist Faith, Salvation, and From Adam  Moses, a commentary on the Old Testament. In 1925 he married Nell Louise Futch of Lake City. They have three children. Dr. Tribble enters his new service at the crucial lime in both world and local history. One of his chid jobs during the next lew years will be to complete the proposed campus move to Winston- Salem; a move that could well presage a new era of Wake Forest service to the South. 174 DR. AND MRS. HAROLD W. TRIBBLE BE FORE LEAVING NEWTON CENTRE, MASS 175 SUMMARY it is safe to say that the ' 49- ' 5o school year at Wake Forest will never be regarded as glorious in Wake Forest circles. But even from this limited perspective the year seems a lot brighter than it did on several memorable occasions past. Things started off normally with a record breaking Fall registration. Including the men in the med school at Winston-Salem 2,147 students were enrolled. The freshman class was the larg- est in the history of the College. The smallest group of new people on the campus were the nine new professors, who, naturally, got their share of attention. The football season looked promising. Several hundred students gathered at the airport to greet as victors the battered and beaten football players when they returned from the SMU game at Dallas. WFDDj on the strength of an appeal made during an early chapel period, collected enough money from the student body to broadcast the Boston College game, which, as is the custom, was being played in Boston. But as the team went into a tailspin, enthusiasm lagged, although the Pep Rallies with Doc Murphrey, die band and the cheerleaders were still pretty well attended. Things were more cheerful after the victory over William and Mary; everyone nodded sagely and decided that we ' d hit our stride, but the loss to State College made it a bad season again. The Deacs finished what should have been a record-breaking year, with only four victories. The intramural leagues, with all their broken bones and cut lips, were soon going full force, with one chapel period being set aside to award trophies to last year ' s IFC winners. About this time Vie Zalbelski, here on an ath- letic scholarship from Schenectady, New York, was injured so badly while winking on some bleachers that he lost part of his leg. The whole school was upset, and many, many people visited Vic during his hospitalization. By this time the Old Gold and Black had run the time-honored editorials on friendliness, chapel programs, and the honor system. The student body president, Pete Caudle, fulfilling his party ' s platform pledge, by letter to the Old Cold and Black reported on the activity of the Student Council. The Council was disturbed by the number of violations of the Honor System, and had an Honor Council appointed to poll the student body, ex- amine the system, and make recommendations. The student poll proved to be almost split on whether to keep the Honor System or to scrap it in favor ol some other procedure. However, those in favor of keeping the Honor System as it existed had a small majority, and the Honor Council took its stand in favor of a stricter and more spectacular enforcement of the regulations. Before the semester was out, the Student Council disclosed that it would publicly announce the re- sults of its activity in Chapel. As the Fall sped on, many things of brief but campus-wide interest were continually attracting student attention. A single meeting of the N. C. State Baptist Convention in the chapel, a brief lived plan of the Old Good and Black ' s to have the students grade the professors, Rush Week and pledging (to be followed later by Hell Week), the American Medical Association ' s test for prospec- tive med students that fell on the day of the Home- coming football game. In addition, there were such unscheduled things as Ed Best ' s inspired re- buttal to Erma LaNier ' s panel discussion: What ' s Wrong With Wake Forest Men. ' ' The discussion, led by Bob Phelps and Dwight Clark, broke up Ed ' s disc jockey show. Later engineers pointed with pride to the fact that the broadcast would have been impossible if WFDD hadn ' t moved the station into the new and larger studios in the barracks area. Bigger-than-life-size photographs spectacularly heralded the approach of the Little Theater ' s fall production of Cyiano dc Iiergerac. The colorful play attracted good audiences both nights it played. The day before first night, the play almost folded when Bob Swain became ill and Sonny Burroughs had to learn the role of Christian overnight. Burroughs came through and it was a commendable production. Thus, without too much difficulty, the semester swung through Thanksgiving holidays and into the customary warmhearted pre-Christmas fes- tivity. But instead of going home with the usual comfortable, anticipatory glow, most students went home preparing answers to the excited babble of inevitable questions about the Hair- Coble murder. From here the Hair-Coble murder looks like the most sensational thing that ever happened to Wake Forest or any Baptist school, for that matter. Hair ' s immediate escape and extended jaunt made good editorial and news copy lor every paper in the state. Wake Forest and the State Bureau of Investigation were kept in an embar- rassing spotlight on front pages for a month. The local effects of the murder were quite dif- ferent from those in the state, however. In the state, newspapers debated the set-up of the SBI. Locally, the murder focused attention on gam- bling, and on other school regulations which are easily and frequently broken. The threat of a crack down on all students for the infraction of any rule loomed large. Everyone was consciously or unconsciously on his best behavior. Many- students were told confidentially (by someone who knew) that they were up for questioning and might as well send their bags home. Rumors flew and jokes went right along with them. One of the best was the story that a certain fraternity was forced to put out a tourist sign and take in travel- ers, because of the vacancies left in the house. Eventually Hair was found in Los Angeles, tried in Raleigh, and convicted of second degree murder. Fifteen or twenty students got cuts in order to testify at the trial. As if all the bad publicity weren ' t bad enough, the basketball team was losing all this time, but when the Deacs managed to get in the Southern Conference tournament, everyone sighed of re- lief and thought things were looking up again. But not for long. There was one more state- wide sensation yet to come. The Student Council, true to its pledge, cracked down, convicted and suspended five students for cheating on exams. This news itself probably would never have gotten out of the rock walls of Wake Forest, but for the fact that the students involved were prominent athletes. Consequently, Wake Forest spent three more uncomfortable days on the front pages, and the issues of the Honor System were debated among various students well into the second se- mester, but without noticable effect. There was only one other real disruption of the planned schedule for the rest of the school year. That was Judge Johnson J. Hayes ' s dramatic speech in chapel. It was probably the longest speech ever made during a chapel period. It almost ran into the fourth period. It was probably also the most captivating speech ever made in chapel. It dealt with moving the school to Wins- ton-Salem, the selection of a new president, and government aid to the State Baptist Hospital. These were all topics of considerable controversy in Baptist circles at that time, and as a result of the Hayes demonstration they were duly put on the front pages and editorially kicked around. The basketball season had been only fair, but the golf team maintained its national rating and supremacy, winning the Southern Conference title. The debate team also maintained its nationally prominent position and was again invited to the national tourney at West Point. For the first time, coeds were used in regular intercollegiate competition. The baseball team again enjoyed a phenomenal year. It didn ' t quite equal 1949 ' s record, but it came close and was easily the best and most popular team in the South. Again, Wake Forest placed men on the All-American squad. The annual spring elections saw the fra- ternity party win 30 out of the 32 student body offices, and there were occasional jaunts, like the legendary PiKA trip to the Kentucky Derby. The Little Theater ' s second production was Winterset. They were saving Hamlet for the Mag- nolia Festival, and had already started the long preparation for that. The Festival was scheduled to take place in Rock Spring Park. But at this time the park was only an area east of the stadium and not properly a park at all. These circum- stances created an impressive demonstration of cooperation. With a good deal of planning on the part of Mr. Holiday and Miss Crisp, and an appeal in the Old Gold and Black, every organization an the campus turned out and in one day built a park. Each group had a specially assigned task and one afternoon in April performed that task with such dispatch that by nightfall Wake Forest had a recreation area. As it happened, however, rain prevented the dances and the ceremonies of the Festival from being held in the park. Instead, they were held on the lawn between the Social Science Building and Bostwick Hall, with the guests standing against the campus wall. The Opera workshop, under the direction of Clifford Baer, presented two operettas: .-1 School for Lovers by Mozart and The Sorcerer by Gilbert and Sullivan. Both productions aroused much favorable comment. Two of the most far reaching things that hap- pened during ' 49- ' 50 were doubtless the resig- nations of President Kitchin and Dean Lee, and the appointments of Harold Tribble and Carroll Weathers to take their places. The announcement of Dr. Tribble ' s appoint- ment was delayed until the closing minutes of commencement exercises in May. The trustees were meeting on the campus at the time, and com- mencement was being shared with the med school. Dr. Kitchin was unable to give his message to the graduates, but it was read to the assembly by Dean Bryan. The message contained the an- nouncement of the appointment. Thus the year ended on a forward looking note. 177 ADVERTISING GEORGE W. KANE CONTRACTOR ROXBORO Postoffice Buildine DURHAM 111 Corcoran St. Bide CREENSBORO 603 Jefferson Standard Bldg. (B. S. Jbept.
