Within these portals the fruits of a preparatory education may be realized by any individual. Here the young buds of each generation are cultivated into the full blossoms of young manhood and womanhood. With one hundred years of serving humanity, Wyoming Seminary now begins a new century. - Within a very short time, the student becomes a part of this insti- tution and feels the great ideals for which it stands. The days pass quickly and are filled with moments of concentration and study, and moments of joy and leisure. There are many subjects to conquer, new horizons to explore and friends to make. All too quickly the colors of fall fade into the bleakness of winter and then give way to spring, which signifies the finish of our school work. With memories of the knowledge and happiness gained, many leave these gates and travel another path. However, everyone who has ever attended Wyoming Seminary has felt proud upon graduation to have been a member of this school. Better prepared to face the world, the student realizes how much his life and character have been molded by the school. In doing such, Wyoming Seminary shall never fail as it faces the future with de- termination. 'x ff - x f 'Negra ' '27 . mi- Q If EE- mi H, ,, A , is-, I WET, I-I H QZQI K L Q., ,J . N Ak .

Last year we completed a hundred years of glorious existence, but this cannot be our ultimate goal. Instead it is a grand beginning and a firm foundation on which to build further progress. Therefore, our dedication should include those men who at the present time are formulating plans for remodeling our dormitories and constructing new buildings to make our school physically finer, and also those men who are striving for new scholastic and cultural excellence. For it is not beauty alone which establishes the reputation of a school, but to a larger extent it is the progressive and able leader- ship which places the school in a position of prominence. In View of these factors, we humbly dedicate this yearbook to the future of Wyoming Seminary and to those who will build that future, and we only hope that it is sufficient tribute to those in whom we place our trust. 1460114 77fcu'ez By Fred A. Carr, Ex., 'SDS John G. Wells, '97 Where the Susquehannafs waters Kiss her golden sands, 'Mid the hills of fair Wyoming, Alma Mater stands. Just beyond the busy humming Of the bustling throng, With her head raised high to heaven Looks she calmly on. Famous is her name in story, Through her honored ones Cherished mem'1'y of her glory Thrills her noble sons. All her sons shall rally 'round her, True they'll ever be, Till they plant her glorious banner, So that all may see. Chorus Raise the chorus, speed it onward, Loud her praises sing, Hail to thee, our Alma Mater, Hail, dear Wyoming. T v C ,La- The Dormitories Swetland, Administration, and Union Halls are the home of the boarding department students for the school year. Built in 1853, they are not as old as the school even though they are the oldest buildings on the cam- pus. The original buildings perished in a fire ten years after the founding of the school. As soon as the war with Japan is successfully ended and building materials are again avail- able, all these structures will be ren- ovated. The plan at the present time is to leave the outside walls standing and to tear down the insides, rebuild- ing them. Thus the appropriate architecture of the buildings will not. be changed, and those of us who are sentimental will see the old school un- changed. mn ms .a+ mn - -1 w m ,. K S ,,,.

Fleck Much of the success of the school at the present time and for the past thirty-four years is due to Dr. Fleck's skill and experience in secondary education and administrative work. Dr. Fleck was born in and grew up in our own state of Pennsylvania. After attending coun- try schools, he entered Gettysburg College, where he became a mem- ber of Phi Beta Kappa. Then for four years at Hazleton High School Dr. Fleck, as vice-principal, taught Latin and mathematics and coached football. Next he attended the University of Pennsylvania, where he received his M.A. degree. Two years later Dr. Fleck came to Sem- inary, where he started his career by teaching Latin. In 1917 Dr. Fleck became Dean and in 1936, President. Since Dr. Fleck has been president at Seminary, he has had many obstacles to surmount. In 1936 there was the iiood and since then the problems of war to be coped with. In spite of these difficulties Dr. Fleck has succeeded in keeping the wheels of education rolling, and even now the visions of Seminary's great future are beginning to formulate into plans for new dormitories and other renovations. In addition to his administrative position, Dr. Fleck teaches Virgil, ethics, and phychology. For rest and relaxation our busy president spends a good part of his time reading, biological and philosophical works being his favorite type of literature. Otherwise Dr. Fleck loves to travel and did so quite extensively during pre-war days and will continue to do so after the peace is Won. -.,.l ,Hifi lu' Y .fx V317 l QP' Aglfaip' JW, .' f' All 1 5 .

Adams Respected by us all as a friend and adviser, Dean Adams cheerfully carries out his many duties. He was born in Maine and still has the refreshing char- acteristics of a New Englander. Dean Adams came to Seminary in 1820 after returning safely from the First World War. He is the man who donates so many bells and demerits, a task of which he is not particularly fond. Dean Adams, as head of the Mathematics Department, teaches advanced algebra, solid geometry, and trigonometry, and thoroughly enjoys solving a difficult problem. Being an ardent traveler and amateur photographer, he is waiting patiently until he can continue these hobbies. Dean Adams has a unique sense of humor, and Seminary would not be Seminary Without him. Miss Erma E. Foster Miss Foster, preceptress at Wyoming Seminary, is a graduate of Oberlin College and she has her master's degree from Cornell. Here, Miss Foster teaches algebra. Since she is preceptress, her duties are many and varied, but the most .important is to give the girls help at anytime they may need it. She genuinely enjoys doing this, and perhaps that is the reason Miss Foster is so helpful and so much a part of Seminary. Miss Foster reads Whenever she has time, and the collecting of stamps, coins, and paperweights is her hobby. PROFESSOR THEODORE S. ABBOT A graduate of Harvard is our witty professor of French and Latin, Who, be- fore coming to Seminary, was a reporter on a Bos- ton newspaper. The pos- sessor of such a keen and spontaneous wit, Professor Abbot is popular among the students. MISS HELEN L. BROWN -. Not unusual for-a teach- er of English, Miss Brown, a graduate of this school and of Mt. Holyoke, en- joys as pastimes, reading and attending the theater. A native of Pennsylvania, Miss Brown loves to travel and has done so quite ex- tensively. PROFESSOR RICHARD ABBOT Besides being a capable gym instructor, Professor Abbot has coached our swimming team to its many victories. As an en- tertainer he also ranks high, for he has an ex- ceedingly good tenor voice and has sung in many of the school's recitals. PROFESSOR EDGAR S. BRACE Stop, look, and think! is the favorite axiom of a favorite professor who dis- tinguishes himself as a teacher of geometry and algebra, and as the coach of our football and basket- ball teams. His ability and sense of humor have won the admiration of all his students. .swwg Pf'l'?.,4fJ3 '...y 'VV-JL F Q-jlglixl-F, ...1 Edit? , Wins? PROFESSOR LEROY E. BUGBEE His amazing wit and un- usual sense of humor help to make Professor Bugbee the idol of the Senior Class. He heads the His- tory Department and is helping to immortalize the name of Wyoming Semin- ary by writing a book on its history. PROFESSOR PARKER H. BURT One of the well-known French and Latin teach- ers, whose keen sense of humor keeps his classes alive and interesting, Pro- fessor Burt enjoys read- ing and appreciates hard Workers. As a favorite teacher Professor has a twenty-six year record at Seminary PROFESSOR HAROLD F. BROWN Professor Brown h as been at Seminary since l9'2'7 and is head of the English Department and faculty adviser of the An- nual. A graduate of Am- herst and Harvard, he is a true native of New Eng- land. We shall all remem- ber Professor Brown. MISS ROSE L. HORNE Miss Horne, the new librarian, came to Semin- ary after working in the South. A graduate of Ot- tawa University, Miss Horne believes that read- ing is essential to a thor- ough education. She likes to travel and spend leis- ure hours listening to operas and symphonies. PROFESSOR J. THEODORE HUGHES Professor Hughes is head of our Science Depart- ment. The apple of his eye is his very pretty young daughter, Miriam. ProfeSs0r's one ambition is to own a home in the country with a garden where he could putter in his spare time. PROFESSOR I-IORACE S. PARKER Wrestling with his son is one of Professor Park- er's favorite pastimes. In the summer he can be found fishing and swim- ming in the lakes of Ver- mont. Professor Parker says he likes food, which accounts for his size. MISS ANNA W. KUTZNER Miss Kutzner, a gradu- ate of Vassar, teaches German and mathematics. She is the head of the Junior Red Cross and, having once been a coach of girls' basketball and track, she is an active sup- porter of almost every sport. PROFESSOR B. EVERETT LORD The ideal teacher, lik- able, good-natured, fair and, above all, patient, such is our own Professor Lord. Fortunate are those who have him for chemis- try and physics. Prof. is a graduate of Temple University and formerly taught at Camden High School, Camden, N. J. . P- F ff'7INP9:k V MISS MURIEL REES Miss Rees is our pretty, blonde dramatic and pub- lic speaking teacher. The successful plays which Seminary has produced this year give evidence of her dramatic ability. Her calming advice is greatly appreciated by those quak- ing seniors on their fate- ful oration day. PROFESSOR EDWIN J. ROBERTS Professor Roberts, grad- uate of Wesleyan Univers- ity, wears a Phi Beta Kappa key and is head of the Latin Department, but Kurt, Joyce, and Parker are his pride and joy. Reading is the Professor's pastime and steak is his favorite food. PROFESSSOR CHARLES L. MARCH Professor March pos- sesses a keen sense of humor and this, combined with his excellence as a teacher, make his classes teresting. This year's both informative and in- Opinator is testimony to the amount of time and effort he puts into his work. PROFESSOR LA URENCE SAMPSON Anyone who graduates and has not had Professor Sampson in class has missed something that is all bound up in his good humor and culture. Bull fights come alive when he repeats them. We will all miss you, Professor, and' here's to your success. PROFESSOR BARCLAY TUCKER Professor Tucker comes from Southern Pennsyl- vania. After graduating from Lehigh University, he worked at Bethlehem Steel Company and began teaching at Clarks Green. Botany is his ho'bby, and Professor enjoys traveling around Pennsylvania vis- iting places of interest. PROFESSOR LOREN N. CRISPELL An expert at handwrit- ing, a keen sense of humor, and an ardent interest in flying make up Professor Crispell's personality. He is commander of the local C.A.P. Unit' and holds the ranks of first lieutenant. This is his fifteenth year at Seminary. MISS V. HELEN ANDERSON Miss Anderson is our capable mechanical draw- ing and art instructress. She likes lobsters and oy- sters and claims her favor- ite pastimes are sewing, painting furniture, and eating. Miss Anderson ab- hors icy streets and gum chewers. QSSQ M 'lf F' PROFESSOR ERNEST E. QUAY Professor Quay is our capable Director of Athletics and head of the Dean School of Business. He started his athletic career at Ursinus and was an All-American football player.

Although many academic students know her very little, she is very well liked by all the students. Miss Coch- rane dreams of the day when she may again travel. MRS. MARY K. ICHTER Unfortunately Seminary students in the Academic Department do not have the pleasure of knowing Mrs. Ichter, who herself is a graduate of Wyoming Seminary. Mrs. Ichter teaches shorthand in the Dean School of Business. She also has a hobby. MISS DOROTHY KAY One of the- newer addi- tions to the Seminary fac- ulty is Miss Kay, teacher of history and Business English.

Obvious- ly Seminary could not get along without this man, who is head electrician and who keeps the school grounds well cared for. Mr. Edwards is his able assistant, Mrs. Meriman, Miss Golomb, and Mr. Mack, about the three busiest people on the campus, compose our most efficient oii'ice staff. Mrs. Merriman, the Dean's secretary, has the daily duty of distributing charge slips each day to the various students who need them. Miss Golomb, when not granting permission to use the telephone, takes care of the secretarial work of Dr. Fleck. Last, but NOT least, Mr. Mack, our bookkeeper and general manager, takes great delight in cashing checks and renting keys to the students. The LIBRARY ' The Z, Platt Bennett Library, ably super- vised by Miss Horne and her assistants, Ruth Bath and Ellen Davis, contains a large 'ollvction of all sorts of books.

WYQ I SEN IGRS SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS First Row lleft to rightl-Judy Nelson, Frances Sheridan, Mary Jane Metzger. Second Row-Richard Edwards. Donald Eagen, Jack Regan, Fred Davis, president. SENIOR CLASS HISTORY It was rather an overwhelming task which faced us last September. The uphold- ing of one hundred years of tradition sounds not easy, yet we, the first class of the new century somehow managed to add to another happy year of Seminary history. Very conscious of our new dignity as Seniors, yet a little uncertain how to manage it, we soon became organized under the patient guidance of Miss Roy and Prof. Roberts. After a campaign almost as spirited as the national, Fred Davis was elected President, Mary Jane Metzger, Vice-President, Dick Edwards, Second Vice-Presidentg Frankie Sheridan, Secretaryg Don Eagen, Treasurer, and Judith Nelson and Jack Reagen, His- torians Con a Day Student-Boarder Coalition ticket, naturallyi. We have had our share of mighty athletes, serious scholars, journalists, thespians, and songsters. The football season was led through a series of hard-fought games by Captain Fred Davis and Manager Peter Price, with such stars as Warren Shiber, Gail Phillips, Ed Wolfe, Mac Smith, Marc Ruch, Joe Rossi, and others dem- onstrating their PEP , The boys' basketball team was especially notable this year, with Van Tillburg, and Davis prominent on the team. Swimming and wrestling, too, had their share of enthusiastic participation. Lest we neglect the fragile sex, Captain Betsey Adams, Kathy Lamme, Mary Jane Metzger, Nancy Dembert, and others could be seen any pleasant autumn day from Boys' Study Hall window racing down back campus armed with their hockey sticks. These four, plus Betty Russell, Eddie Kleinrock, Betty Luetzel, and Eleanor Tremayne, as man- ager, ably took care of girls' basketball. Don Eagen, when not setting fire to the chemistry laboratory, and Helen Flannery kept the Opinator filled with all the news that's fit to print . Herb Weiss convinced us of the importance of military training in the debate, and A1-villa Travis and Don Eagen proved that a background of Cicero's oration reaped great rewards in the ora- torical contest. The Adelphians, furthermore, had a very successful year and have chosen Just Like Mother Used To Bake as their new motto. Cum.Laude awards in January revealed that there were several among us who were eager beavers , though the virtuoslty of Schwartz and Ellsworth has never failed to amaze us. But lest we forget those little things which made this our last year so memorable, Warren's baby-blue car so tastefully decorated, Peter Price, the ideal campaign man.- ager, Sam Blum on the stage in some exotic costume, the boarder boys' cowboy boots, Herb and Margie haunting the halls at 3:15, the Midycar Prom, thanks to Mac and Randy, the Eagen-Regan brand of humor, oratiuns, S. P. U. C.'s, and so much fun and frivolity! This year, however, the war has lent serious overtones to our butterfly whirl. Many of our boys have already left for the service, among then Larry Nankiwell, Ed Wolfe, Marc Ruch, and many more are soon to leave. Our fervent word to those young men and to all who are soon to take their place in the world is good luck and Godspeed. BETSY ADAMS Alexandria, Va. Betsy, another one of our busiest Swet- landites, has taken part in many of Sem- inary's plays. Being, too, an excellent athlete, she was this year's hockey cap- tain. Next year, Betsy would like to study dramatics, and we know she will be very successful. FRANK ANDERSON Forty Fort, Pa. Frank is theboy with the roguish look and the Hcornyf' pun. By appearing in several plays and being a vivacious cheer- leader, he has made the most of Sem- inary. Frank would like to attend U. of P. after graduation if he does not be- come a Marine. fi V151 ll X117 'Q-555 s If li Q 'Sx.L,b'x , U pil' l l i vi., I., CJ' f Ti , L, ll l x fl -li 1 illli all '-lib' .j.. . .., 4 fw J EQ LOIS ARBEGAST Mechanicsburg, Pa. Arby just came to Seminary this year but is one of the most popular girls on the campus. Her favorites are boogie-Woogie , Navy Air Corps, and Penn State week-ends. Arby's future plans are undecided, but her ability to immediately make friends insures her a successful future. ALAN BAICKER Luzerne, Pa. We, the girls have unanimously de- cided that M. G.

Senior Committees A The three committees which represent the Senior Class are the color, dress, and ring' committees. The efficiency with which the ring committee accepts orders and dis- tributes the rings has indeed been com- mendable. The members of the girls' dress committee devoted much of their time to selecting a dress that would meet with the approval of all the girls in the graduating class. The color combination of the boys' outfits is chosen by the boys' committee. Many colors have been mentioned for the class color, which must harmonize with the school color, but the final decision is the job of the color committee. These committees. are all equally important and have proved very successful this year. SENIOR COLOR COMMITTEE SENIOR RING COMMITTEE RING COMMITTEE K. Lamme D. Edwards B. Luetzel COLOR COMMITTEE D. Koons P. Kielty M. K. Maloney F. Anderson CLASS POEM We are thy youth, America! Look to us, for our hands Grasp tight the torch And pass it on to many foreign lands. We are thy youth, America! Our shoulders strong, our eyes are clear, In spite of all the darkened hours We know God's victory is near. We are thy youth, America! A living memorial to those of us who gave Their fresh young lives in battle, Who guide us from the grave. We are thy youth, America! With bloodshed, sweat, and tears We hope to build a better world, Free from tyranny, want, and fears. We are thy youth, America! Look to us, you beneath the sod, We'll carry on as you would do, With flaming hope and faith in God. -Helen Flannery. CLASS SONG School years have passed, And We reflect on days we knew, Of Wyoming and things We've done for five years through. The wisest, the truest, the best school you could lind, Our hearts now are saddened, for we must leave this all behind. Dear Wyoming, Our prep school days are in the past. The things we've learned, in coming years will always last. We leave you now with memories still clear and bright, We'll ne'er forget Wyoming Blue and White. -Patricia Kielty. x QR Qi 15 P ff-5 .f 4 igA X, C I rv-x Q X x ...L ff J ! , 'XV Xb. - .

Ruth Richards- Bud Mathers and Cynthia Sears-Bob Smith furnished the romantic interest of the class most adequately. Among the Swetland kids such celebrities as Mary Ellen Trumbower, Bev Watkins, Mini Clarke and Marion Gunster keep the mischief ball rolling. Not to be outdone those Casanovas of the Dorm, Ed Dodson, C. Q, MacWilliams, Bill Cole, Bill Atherton, and Art Arndt manage lin their own small wayj to keep the professors hopping. As far as musical and artistic talent are con- cerned, we are ably represented by Carolyn Moore, Mildred Burleigh, Margot Lang, and Betty Jane Austin.

On election day Sen1inary's Sophomore citizens went to the polls and served notice that the people's choice for president was Wade Smith, with Abbie Buckman and Granville Sowden as vice-presidents, Nancy Heffer- nan as secretary and Andy Heffernan as treasurer. During the fall months our class showed it was over- flowing with athletes when Abbie Buckman, Nancy Heffernan, and Georgia Johnson won places on the hockey team, while Tom Klett, Wade Smith, Bob Lib- enson, and Tony Rossi represented us on Wyoming's football field. When' winter rolled around, we found Ralph Mebane capably pinning his opponents as heavyweight on the wrestling team and Al Kizis doing equally well as 220 man for the Seminary mermen. And we must not forget Wade Smith and Leroy Engel, those two able guards of the Junior Varsity basketball squad. Our athletic class showed that it was no slouch on the dance floor either, with good at- tendance at the Mid-Year Prom and the vari- ous S, P, V. C. dances. And so, as June draws near, the Class of 4'7 , under the guidance of Prof. Bugbee and Miss Cochran, is one step nearer to that ulti- mate goal of all Seminary students, gradua- FRESHMAN CLASS First.Row lleft to rightj-R.

FRESI-IMAN CLASS HISTORY Attention, All Freshmen! Here's a report on your activities this year. My, how we have grown from seventeen Sub-Freshmen to sixty-four Freshmen. We started with class elections: Bill Evans was voted president, Frank Carlucci, first vice-pres- identg Sally McCole, second vice-president, May Eagen, secretary, Frank Flannery, treasurer, Mary Jane Lord, and Jack Griffith, historians. We're proud not only of our scholastic achievements, but our extra-curriculur as well. Evelyn Popky remained first in the class stand- ings throughout the year and Joan Everat, Rebecca Nicholson and Charles Bufalino battled for second place. If you watched the gymns and athletic fields carefully, you would see a number of familiar faces. Frank Carlucci and Louie Goeringer, our wrestlers, showed the upper classmen that the Freshmen were outstand- ing. This year's Varsity basketball team was composed mostly of Freshmen. Some stars were Frank Flannery, Charles Bufalino, Bud Crossin and Arthur Chassin. In swim- ming, Larry Balletz ably represented us. However, the girls are not to be overlooked. In hocky Jean Robbins, Nancy Jackson and Tish Heifernan did a fine job. In basketball, Jean Sheridan, Lela Gutstini and Nancy Jack- son were outstanding. Barbara Clark, Nancy Davis and Ellen Davis, Bill Evans and Bill Carlheim could be seen at the various S. P. U. C.'s and Proms. Bevie Bower, our own Lauren Bacall, was our leading actress. Beth McGuire, David Joseph and Jack Griffith arl- three of the merriest people in school. FRESHMAN CLASS OFFICERS First- liow lleft to rightJ-Treasurer, Frank J. Flannery: President, William E.

The musical side of our talented class includes John Kastor, who plays the organ, and Connie Perloif, who attends Glee Club. On the sports field, Isabel Harris, our President, is on the hockey team, while New Hessler and Pete Gib- son are the Sub-Freshman's star wrestlers, John Kastor, Marian Berk, Ann Petterson, Marilou Croop and Connie Perloff are struggling to make the SUB-FRESHMAN CLASS OFFICERS First Row Cleft to rightf-Mary Lou Croop, Isabelle Harris, Charles Lorri.

Why Marion Berk, Connie Tremayne and Dort. Travis, naturally. Our Art Department is covered by Isabel Harris, who draws covers for the Opinator and Clark Conlon, who draws airplanes all over his tablets. We hope that all in our class will continue to their ultimate goal-graduation. Q M41 A-A I ,E 3 A .1- ,X ,H r 6 . Lf. 1 1 2 Si.. H74 , -'wh w mxfml u H--aw .yas W Tgfw Wg! qi N-gym: '- H . wfjfx I.

Dean, is unexcelled in suc- cessfully preparing students for places in the busi- ness world. The Bookkeeping Department, under the supervision of Professor E. E. Quay, offers an excellent course in the theory of business, as well as penmanship, commercial arithmetic, and com- mercial law. The Stenographic Department, headed by Miss Anna M. Roy, gives thorough training in typewriting, shorthand, business English, spelling, and switchboard practice. Mr. Crispell, Mrs. Ichter, Cochran, Miss Barr, and Miss Kay comprise the vital members of the teaching staff in this depart- ment. All commercial students are a part of Wyoming life, and they are well represented in both sports and social activities. There are two representatives on Honor Court, Civil Court, Chapel Board, Opinator Staiif and Prom Committee. In fact, they are always well represented in any important student activity. The Dean School of Business has long proved its worth as an invaluable asset to the present-day business world. X xx 5 - NX X X X fx Xi - Cx! , X iii rfiisfxief XX ,fig gym is XSS-gf if ' N..

Nogi. n l Every year the whole-hearted aim of the Annual Board is to produce a bigger and better year book, a book of which their fellow students will be proud. This year, however, we were confronted with an extra problem. The war has caused a vast short- age of paper. This fact necessitated the governments requesting us to reduce our paper usage to one-third of that allotted to last year's Annual. Because of this, the Board under the very capable leadership of the editor, Bob Ellsworth, the assistant editor, Betty Russell, and the faculty ad- viser, Professor Brown, have worked es- pecially hard to make each page count. Hope you like it! ggi? 2 . AN ANN UAL PHOTOGRAPHY BOARD First Row fleft to rii:htj4N, Dembert, M. Popky. M. K. Maloney, B. Leutzel, Z. Klein. Second Row-H. Weiss, J.

Meet- ings are held every Wednesday anzl Sunday evenings in the Association Room immediately after dinner. The Sunday meetings are usually of a religious nature and students, members of the faculty or prominent clergymen of all denominations provide spiritual guidance. The Sunday meetings, for the most part, have been organized and conducted by the Girls' Y , with Miss Reese as faculty adviser and Kath- erine Lamme as president. The Wednesday Y meetings, with some exceptions, were conducted by the Boys' Y , with Prof. Burt as adviser and Ralph Beane and Dana Lee as presidents. These meetings are generally entertaining and the programs include musical programs, games, movies, quizzes, stunt nights, softball, and talks on current events by Prof. Bugbee. On Wednes- day evenings the meetings are often held in Swetland parlors as well as in the Association Room. At the beginning of each school year a Y reception is given so that members of the faculty and the student body may become more easily acquainted. 'THE CHAPEL BOARD Wyoming Seminary's Chapel Board, organ- ized four years ago, is largely responsible for the dignified and interesting Chapel exercises which we enjoy. This Chapel Board is com- posed of representatives of the various classes who plan the Chapel exercises and ask for vol- unteers to conduct the devotions. In this way, an opportunity is given every student to par- ticipate in the Chapel program. Usually one student reads a passage from the Bible, and another reads a prayer. Dr. Fleck and the board members have succeeded in bringing to us this year many of the most outstanding men in the religious life of the community. A few of the students who have taken part in the religious exercises this year are Katherine Lamme, Peter Clark, John McCole, Barbara Smith, and Ralph Beane. A comparatively new organization, the Chapel Board is without doubt an important part of Wyoming Sem- inary. STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council is an organization of the Boarding Department which endeavors to solve any difficulties which may arise between the students and the faculty members. The Council also brings harmony among all the students. As part of their program during the year, the Student Council plans different ac- tivities, such as the Christmas Party. There are two divisions: The Boys' Student Council and the Girls' Student Council. Miss Anderson is adviser for the girls and Dean Adams for the boys. The president of the Y. W. C. A., the dormitory girl who has the highest number of Opinator points, and the girl with the highest scholastic standing among the girls who lead their respective classesg and one girl elected from each fioor are all mem- bers of the Girls' Student Council. The Boys' Student Council has among its members the president of the Y. M. C. A., the captain of the football team, and four other boys elected by the dormitory. The Council discusses with Dean Adams any problems that are present in the dormitory. The Council expresses its opinion freely and this frank discussion promotes understanding among all. THE HONOR COURT The Honor Court was established at Wyo- ming Seminary in 1926 at the suggestion of the students themselves. At the beginning of each year, after the Honor System has been explained, the students sign the following pledge: I pledge my word of honor that I shall neither give nor receive aid in formal tests or examinations, and that I shall cooper- ate with the Honor Court by every means at my command in promoting standards of hon- esty in Wyoming Seminary . To render the Honor System effective there is an Honor Court composed of students elected from the various classes, which has as its adviser, Pro- fessor Hughes. A student accused of violating his pledge is brought before the Honor Court, and his case is tried. If found guilty, the student is dropped from the honor body for three months and is reprimanded by either Dr. Fleck or the Faculty. Two offenses constitute cause for suspension from school. The Honor System is not perfect, but it has been found effective.

Noted for its articles of distinction and for its creative covers, the Opinatori' well deserves its acclaim. Thus, in these few short paragraphs, we proudly acknowledge the students and members of the faculty who have made the Opinator a publication to be proud of and a work of art. The articles Within the publication are 'written only by students of Seminary. The editors are responsible for the editing of the magazine. This year, Don Eagen and Helen Flannery with Ed Berninger composed the Editorial Staff, which worked industriously to make the Opinator faultless. Professor March, the faculty adviser, was invaluable as always for his advice and untiring work in re-correcting all material. May Kay Maloney, with John McCole and Andy Heffernan, com- posed the very capable Business Staff. The superb covers were supplied by Miss Anderson and the Art Department and were deeply appreciated by all those who have seen the magazine. Besides the Editorial, Business, and Art Departments of 'the Opinator , there is also the Editorial Staff, which is responsible for the literary material. Almost every week, one may open the Opinator and read an article on subjects ranging from dieting to Dumbarton Oaks. 'Articles on humor, drama, mystery, and cur- rent events are skillfully Written by the students for the enjoyment of all. Poetry has not been forgotten, and the news of the campus is covered by the Board. Much credit is due to Marilyn Greasy, Joen Gale, Kath- erine Lamme, Ruth Merwin, Bernice Perloif, Marjory Popky, Arthur Schwartz, Frances Sheridan, Marion Silverstein, Dorothy Streng, and Arvilla Travis for lit- erary workg to Peter Clark, Rita Goldstein, George Heifernan, John Marvin, Mary Alice Mitchell, Jack Regan and Herbert Weiss for World Today articlesg and to Renee Kline and Judith Nelson for excellent poetry. Taken together, these groups make up the Opinator , of which Wyoming Seminary can well be proud. This publication is a product of the hard labor and interest of the student body, and is a worthy representative of Seminary in any of the four corners of the earth.

Arthur Schwartz, CUM LAUDE The Cum Laude Society was founded at Tome School, Fort Deposit, Maryland, in 1906 to honor students who attain high scholastic achievements. It is the second- ary schools' Phi Betta Kappa. Scholarship has always been of paramount importance at Wyoming Seminary, and the Wyoming Seminary Chapter of Cum Laude was organized in 1930. The Cum Laude Society now has about one hundred and ten chapters in leading prepar- atory schools of the country. The total membership at the present time is more than twenty thousand. There are six districts of the Cum Laude Society, and Semin- ary is honored in that Dr. Fleck is the regent of Dis- trict Five. Each chapter has its own constitution, along with the national constitution. Seminary's Cum Laude Constitu- tion provides that officers be elected in June at the an- nual meeting. The officers are members of the faculty and serve a one year term of office. Professor Edwin J. Roberts is the president for the year 1944-1945. At the end of the first semester, students with an average of 88 or more, with no grade below 85, who stand in the first ten per cent of the class, and who have attended Seminary for at least one year, are elected to the Society. This February, Arthur Schwartz, Robert Ellsworth, Judith Nelson, Judith Nogi, Rita Goldstein, Herbert Weiss, Marjory Popky, and Mary Kay Maloney, became members of the Society. In June those Seniors who have an average of 85 or more, with no grade below '78, and who stand in the second ten per cent of the class will be elected to the Society. At the time of their election, members receive a small, cross-shaped Cum Laude Key, which signihes they have reached the pinnacle of scholastic achievement. 4 I CIVIL COURT Firs' How tlcft to rigrhtj--M.

CIVIL COURT Under the able direction of Prof. Roberts the Civil Court was organized in March of last year to protect 1 the property of the students. This year it has contin- ued its fine work. It meets the first and third Thurs- day of every month when cases are reported. The mem- bers are elected by the student body at the beginning of each school year. The Court is comprised of seven- teen members, three from the Dean School of Business, three day student boys, three day student girls, and a representative from each floor of the dormitories. The Court administers punishment for a first offense, but if a student is convicted twice, he is taken before the faculty, who determine his punishment. Its jurisdiction covers the case of any student who deliberately mars or destroys property or takes something which does not belong to him. Thanks to the Civil Court, Seminary has gone far in creating an atmosphere in which no one is tempted to infringe on the property rights of others. THE GIRLS' GLEE CLUB One of the most important of the extra-curricular activities of the school this year has been the Girls' Glee Club. Under the able direction of Miss Elsie Perkins about forty girls have worked untiringly and faithfully to make this organization a success. The Glee Club is composed of day students as well as boarders, and commercial students as well as academic students who participated in chapel exercises, vesper services, Y meetings, concerts, and many other programs. A loyal supporter of the girls has been their accompanist, Car- olyn Moore, who has devoted much time and effort in the Glee Club's behalf. For many years, the Glee Club has been a foremost organization in the school and we feel that this year everyone has contributed with un- tiring efforts to make it better than ever before. With pride the Glec Club has honored Wyoming Seminary in her one hundred and first year. . gli ex, 1 s. .,., DRAMATIC CLUB First Row lleft to rixrhtj-J. Gale, J. Nelson, B. Bower, M. Packard.

THE DRAMATIC CLUB The Dramatic Club commenced the year under the capable direction of Miss Reese with the presentation of the Laboratory Plays, consisting of three one-act plays. These plays are intended to helpfmd hidden tal- ent, to develop the abilities of interested students, and to teach the finer arts to both the audience and the players. The first, Women in Council , dealt with the overthrow of the Greek government by the women, who soon realized that their place was in the home. Patricia Kielty and Samuel Blum were among those who made this play successful. In The Dictator Visits His Mother Betsy Adams and Louis Salsburg shone. The third and last play was an hilarious farce entitled The Man In the Bowler Hat . As in all A. A. Milne's plays, anything can and does happen. The excellent coopera- tion of the casts and committees insured the success of the Laboratory Plays. The spring production was a French comedy of the Seventeen Century, The Bluffei-s or Dust In Your Eyes . The play, portrayed in wigs and costumes of the period, related the escapades of two middle-class French families trying to marry off their children. The star-studded cast was headed by Judith Nelson, Zelda Klein, and Irving Robin. Thanks go to Miss Anderson and her art students for complete new scenery which added much to the play. The yearly activities end with the Inter-Society play contest. A cup is given for the best play and the host performance. we af 1 . w e INTERESTING, JOHN? ' SAM IS IN HIS GLORY!

THE AMPHICTYON SOCIETY The Amphictyon Society, founded in 1853, is the oldest of the four literary societies of Wyoming Seminary. The Society was founded by a group of day-students who wished to increase their literary knowledge and to improve their speaking abilities. As in past years, the society has lived up to its repu- tation of being the most energetic and progressive organization on the campus. In September two main events occurred, the first being the Inter-Society Reception, which was an outstanding success and gained many new members for the society who were initiated a few weeks later. The next major event was the Annual Debate with our ancient rivals, The Independents. Not only did our team, composed of Herb Weiss, Art Schwartz, and Ed Berninger, win the debate, but Herb Weiss was also chosen the out- standing speaker of the occasion. The next event was the Annual Oratorical Contest, which was won by Don Eagen, representing the Amphictyons. The society hopes to continue its unbroken chain of vic- tories by winning the Annual Play Contest and tho Declamation Contest. Members of the society, in ad- dition to their many outstanding extra-curricular activities, have been instrumental in making the school's War Bond, Red Cross, and Community Chest drives a great success. Jack Regan was elected president for the first semester and Don Eagen was elected president for the second semester. K a ADELPHIAN SOCIETY Seated fleft to rightj-M. Croop. A. Travis. M. Popky, R.

TI-IE ADELPHIAN SGCIETY ALL LOYAL Adelphians are requested to meet for a brief but important meeting after the exercises this morning. This announcement, so frequently heard through- out the year in chapel, is calling together the mem- bers of one of the school's most active organizations. The inserted LOYAL so emphatically expressed was traditional to prick the conscience of a certain few who might otherwise have allowed their hunger to rule their resolute spirits, loyalty being one of the chief aims of the organization. Every girl, upon entering Seminary, is invited to join the Adelphian Society. Before she may become a full-Hedged member, she must undergo certain initiations. On the day set aside for this purpose the prospective members, who automatically become Stooges to 'tus veterans , are required to appear in l certain designated outfits. This year the theme of dress changed from the ridiculous to the beautiful. In fact, the costumes were so original that LL contest 1 was held, and Dorothy Travis was awarded a prize 4 for the most unique ensemble. F' ' PLATTONIAN SOCIETY First Row lleft to rightj-M. Henry.

Throughout all the years which have followed, the girls have found a great deal of enjoyment in working for the society and in taking part in its program. Shortly after the beginning of school, new girls are pledged to thesociety. Their initiation period is one week of Hstoogingi' for an old girl. At last the new students are ready to become members of the society and, dressed in formal gowns at a candle- light ceremony, they are initiated. During the year, the Inter-Society Reception, where new faces are welcomed and old ones greeted, the Hallowe'en Party with its doughnuts and cider, and the Laboratory Play all provide plenty of work and fun for the Platts. Not eminence only, but worth has been the motto of the Plattonian Society. The girls have always lived up to that pledge and in the years that follow other girls will carry on that fine tradition. 1 INDEPENDENT SOCIETY First Row lleft to riizhtj-Prof. Hughes. W.

THE INDEPENDENT SOCIETY The Independent Society, which was founded in 1857 and is composed mainly of boarders, furnishes its members with experience in debating, oratory, drama, and an opportunity to broaden themselves. Although many of its older members are sorely missed, this year found many new and interesting members to take their places, such as Warren Shib- er, Paul Shiffer, that lovable cowboy from Tunk- hanock, Bow Strome, C. Q. Mac William, Pete Smythe, and many others whose names are too numerous to mention here. One of its most illus- trious members was Fred Davis, who served as the Senior Class president, captain of the football squad, basketball team and the Welfare Drive. There were many other 'tIndies besides Fred who have brought honor to their society in football, basketball, wrestl- ing, swimming, and other fields of endeavor. This year, 'under the capable direction of Prof. Hughes, was one of their best, and many good times were en- joyed by all. But there were other Indies also, not at Sem any more, but scattered all over the world engaged in battles so that the kind of life they and their fellow-men have led, may continue un- changed, ' To these valiant members of the Independent Society, as well as many others like them, go the good wishes and fond hopes of every Seminary stud- ent in whoseniemory they will always live. AM PHICTYON DEBATERS iwinners-Top Picture-J Arthur Schwartz, Herbert Weiss. Edward Derninger INDEPENDENT DEBATERS 4Losers--Bottom Picturej Louis Salshurg, Arthur Arndt, William M. Brown ARVILLA TRAVIS DONALD EAGEN MARION SILVERSTIEN VVILLIAM BROWN The Annual Inter-Society Debate The annual Inter-Society Debate has always been one of the most interesting contests held during the school year. The contest between the Amphictyon and lndependent Societies has taken place annually for sixty-two years. As in the past, both teams did unusually well in preparation and delivery. The Amphictyon- Society was victorious both in the de- cision and the best speaker award, won by Herbert Weiss. The subject of the debate was: Resolved: That all young men between the ages of 17 and 21 should be required to undergo a year of compulsory mili- tary trainingf' The Independent Society was represented by Louis Salsburg and Arthur Arndt, with William Brown, alternate. The Amphictyon representatives were Herbert Weiss and Arthur Schwartz, with Edward Berninger, alternate. Mr. Weiss, first speaker for the affirmative, stated the urgent need for compulsory military training as has been shown in past history. Mr. Salsburg, first speaker for the negative, ar- gued that such training will be an unnecessary pre- caution tending towards imperialism. Mr. Schwartz, second affirmative speaker, de- fended the plan from the standpoint of its ad- vantages to the nation and individuals in establish- ing everlasting peace. Mr. Arndt, second negative speaker, spoke on the impractical costs of compulsory training, and pro- posed a short modified period of training. Although the Amphictyon Society won the debate, both societies excelled in presenting clear, concise, and interesting arguments. It may be said that all the participants were victorious in the experience gained and the development of good sportsmanship. ORATORICAL CONTEST On Thursday, February twenty-second, the annual Ora- torical Contest was held. The speakers were Marion Sil- verstien, representing the Plattonian Societyg William Brown, the Independent Society, Donald J. Eagen, the Amphictyon Society, and Arvilla Travis, the Adelphian Society. Miss Silverstein, the first speaker, discussed the situa- tion ouf the Negro in the United States today. She pointed out that the Negro is usually shunned by white people and lives a rather secluded life, this sometimes endangered by race riots. In conclusion, Miss Silverstein urged toler- ance for the black people. William Brown's address, entitled Abraham Lincoln, Democracy Personiiiedn, explained that Lincoln's act of freeing the slaves was unconstitutional, but his great sense of freedom caused him to do this. Donald Eagen spoke on Thomas Jederson, Architect of Democracy , in which he told of Jefi'erson's work on the Declaration of Independence, and his contributions of architecture to Washington, D. C. Mr. Eagen's speech won the award for the Amphictyon Society. Arvilla Travis spoke on the Fifth Freedom : freedom of action, stressing her points with examples of a lion in a zoo, ownership in Russia, and socialized medicine in Sweden. This excellent speech won the award for the Adelphian Society. WAITERS V1 pg t 1 WAITERS Peyton Lee, Paul Shilfer. Frank Carlucci, Dick Millcr.

V BOYS' ATHLETIC COUNCIL What would Seminary be without her varied athletics, and what would these numerous athletics be without student planning and leadership? We look to the Boys' Athletic Council for this lead- ership and planning. Each captain and manager of the sport teams works diligently together with faculty supervision. They set up the standards for those striving to be awarded varsity letters. Yes, the members of this council have a lot of responsibility. GIRLS' ATHLETIC COUNCIL Each year one girl who is outstanding in faithfulness, sports- manship and leadership is chosen as a for the Girls' Athletic Council.

' THE COACHES Seminary owes a lot of credit to Prof. Brace and Prof. Abbot for their fine work with the athletic teams during the past year. Both men coached the football team into a fine organization and then after the foot- ball season Prof. Brace took charge of thc basketball squad while Prof. Abbot sent the swimming team through its paces. After the winter season Prof. Abbot moulded a track team, the first one in the school for a number of years. CHEERLEADERS - This year our successful football team was spurred on to victory by the ever-encouraging vivacious cheerleaders. By frequent pep rallies in the boys' gym and pep meetings in chapel the cheerleaders were able to arouse much en- thusiasm and school spirit The pep rallies, which were held after school on Friday after- noons, were an outstanding feature of Wyo- ming Seminary's social calendar. The cheerleaders supported the team in rain or shine and added spirit to every football game. The enthusiastic zeal displayed by the cheerleaders will be remembered by students as they look back upon their school days . , . H W mfgk, Q 1 W, I ' l N.

A FOOTBALL , Wyoming Seminary, despite wartime difficulties, played five games this season with some of our arch rivals of former days. We won all of our home games with the Murray A, C., Pennington Prep, and Freeland M. M. I., but when we travelled to Blair and Hill, we met the two defeats of the year. The 1944 season opened in October when we played and defeated the Murray A. C. on Nesbitt Field. The score was 6-10 in our favor at the end of the game time. It was a fine start and it also witnessed the return to action of Ed. Wolfe and Gail Phillips, plus the new captain, Fred Davis, all of Whom played during the 1943 season. To this group were added such varsity stal- Warts as Marc Ruch, Jerry Iscovitz, Bob Von Tilburg, Teddy Landan, Chet Bokinski, Warren Shiber, Jim Counes and Mac Smith. Next came the game with Pennington Prep, which was also played in Nesbitt Stadium. This arch rival from New Jersey was de- feated by Seminary to the tune of 7-0, thus scoring our second victory and also our second shutout of the seas- on. The third and last home game was played against Freeland M. M. I. and saw the blue and white score the third straight victory and shutout defeating 'Freeland 13-0, despite a wet field and a muddy ball. Sem prob- ably could have piled up a higher score if weather con- ditions had permitted. With these three victories under their belts the team journeyed down to Blairstown, where they were defeated 26-6 by a heavier and more experienced Blair eleven. Next came the journey to Pottstown for our last game of the season against our bitter rivals, the Hill School. The blue and white went down to defeat by the score of 2-0 but the game was much closer than shown by the score, Hill's three scores being captured by long runs. All in all, it was a fine season considering the fact that it was almost decided to drop football this year because of the war. When it comes to the point of picking out stellar players for the year, it makes it very dificult because all looked good on the gridiron and the team played as a team should with every man doing his best for the squad. But since special mention must be given, we cannot pass lightly over Fred Davis' fine punting or Gail Phillips' and Eddie Wolfe's fine line work. Also credit is due to Mac Smith's faultless center and Jerry Iscovitz's and Warren Shiber's consistent running, never forgetting for an instant the excellent team work of Teddy Landan, next year's captain. Unmeasurable credit is also due to Coach Brace and Professor Abbot, who worked to put a team on the field this year. Also appreciated was the Work done by Professor Quay in providing schedules and other necessities for trips and games. 1 wa ss zz ,X 5 N 1 I -V FOOTBALL This year the Sem. J. V.'s practised long and hard under the direction of that versatile coach, Prof. R. Abbot. Due to limited means of trav- eling, the J. V.'s were restricted to playing only such local teams as the James St. Tigers, and the like There are many good prospects for Ei next year, including Frank Carlucci, Ben Mai'- shall, and Granville Sowden, but the team will miss Dick Schmitt, who graduates this year. ' Seminary may rely upon the J. V.'s for good varsity material in the near future. - A 1: Wi al ,W E . E Mis.: ...M f v i -Q S' us JUNIOR VARSITY FOOTBALL TEAM First. Row Hull to rightj-J.

With only three returning veterans, but fortified by a trio of experienced players from other schools, Coach Brace proceeded to create a smart, fast, aggressive squad. This fact was recognized by the student body, who turned out in large numbers to cheer the team to victory, and as the team won victory after victory, basketball enthiasm mounted to unprecedented heights in the school. Captain Fred Davis led this smoothly functioning aggregation, consisting of Mouse Doud- en, Bing Robin, Zip Iscovitz, with Bull Van Til- burgh and Mask Shiber alternating positions. It is hard to pick the outstanding player, for each excelled in his particular field. Mouse Louden, de- spite his short stature, was a leading scorer all through the season, making many spectacular long shots. Zip Iscovitz as pivot man was a leading scorer and a fast ball handler, being very adept at working the ball into scoring territory. Bing-gl' Robin played outstanding ball all through the season and turned many apparent defeats into victories. Captain Fred Davis, because of his height, was a natural as center and was adept at picking the ball off the backboards and break'ng up the opposing team's plays. Bull Van Tilburgh and Mask Shiber were consistently good players both on the defensive and offensive. The second team, com- posed of Bailey, Kestor. Brown, and Counes, backed up the first team superbly. Thus We pay a Well earned tribute, not only to the team, but to Coach Brace. in recognizing the fact that this year's team was one of the best in the history of basketball at Wyoming Seminary.

They have truly upheld the enviable recognition which Seminary's Wrestling teams have acquired over a long period of years. The Varsity, in spite of didicult war conditions, was comprised of boys in outstanding condition and expertly trained as their records will readily testify. The squad opened its highly successful season when we met Coughlin High School in January whom we defeated with the overwhelming score of 33 to 13 and this was followed with victories over the teams of Meyers, GAR, Coughlin, and the Y.M.C.A. As a culmination to all their efforts, the boys journeyed to Bethlehem where they participated in the Lehigh Middle Eastern Preparatory Championships. The team, though inexperienced-made a good show- ing against the best preparatory school wrestlers of the Middle Eastern States. Mac Smith, Marc Ruch, and Gail Phillips all took second or third in their re- spective classes. Their eiforts secured for Seminary fifth in the meets. Some of the schools participating against us were Blair, Petty, Poly Prep, Gilman, Mercersburg, Valley Forge, and numerous other out- standing prep schools. We congratulate Coach David Hopkins for a job which was well done. Dave coached wrestling the first time this season. We also congratulate Captain Eddie Wolfe for his fine showing.

The group of students which excel in swimming has made this year as eventful as any year during the ten-year existence of a swimming team. Under the capable guidance of Coach Richard Abot, the waters of the pool churned furiously as the team swiftly swam forward. Art Arndt was captain and an outstanding swimmer in the 100 yard' and 40 yard free-style and medley relay. Among the other excellent swimmers were Al Kizis and Pete Smyth, 220 free-style: Frank Mathers and Bowl' Strome, back stroke and medleyg Ed Cronauer, free-style relayg Johnny McCole, breast strokeg and Vince Zarra, 100 yard free-style. The team 'has been rewarded with two victories over Scranton' Y and a xery close meet with Blair. This year's team was composed of splendid swim- mers possessing an abundance of courage and persever- ance. These are the true champions of The True, The Beautiful And The Good. As long as Seminary has such teams, there can never be anything else but vic- tory.

GIRLS' HGCKEY This year the girls' hockey teason started off with a team composed almost entirely of girls new to the varsity lineup and with a new coach, Miss Harris. During the first week of the season the girls spent their afternoons doing calisthenics. Despite many ob- jections, the girls soon realized how valuable this exer- cise wasl In the ensuing weeks, drills in shooting goals, accurate passing and fiawless defensive work proved an invaluable asset to the success of the team. When these drills had been perfected, the large number of girls, who daily came out to practice, were divided into teams which played together. The Varsity this year played five games: two against Clark Summit, one against Penn Hall, and two against the Wilkes-Barre Day School, our greatest rival. Al- r-'ff , though the girls won only one game, that against Penn Hall, and tied two, one each with the Day School and Clark Summit, they displayed good stick work and, above all, great cooperation. The captain of this year's team was Betsy Adams, the center forward and high scorer. Mary Jane Metz- ger's enthusiasm and vitality kept the team rushing all the time. The other Seniors on the Varsity were Kathy Lamme and Nancy Dembert. We are looking forward to a successful season next year when most of the Varsity will be back and many new girls will come out to participate in the best girls' sport in the world-hockey. I f fa., -'R WHERE'S THE BALL? GET IT BACK, KIDS! HEADED FUR OUR GOAL! ini l SS LUCY HARRIS Cooperation, obedience and teamwork is Miss Harris', our beloved coach of girls' athletics, strict motto. The welfare of the girls comes first with her and Winning games second. Her winning and inspiring personality has gained the greatest respect of everyone.

GIRLS' BASKETBALL Basketball is by far the favorite winter sport at Sem among the girls as well as the boys, and this year the girls have worked and played well to uphold our honor in sports. Early in the season intramural games were played with much rivalry between the classes. Victorious in these, many of the Senior girls remained to play on the Varsity. Among these were Mary Jane Metzger, Kathy Lamme, Betty Russell, Edie Kleinrock and our captain, ,Betty Luetzel. Early in January, Miss Harris summoned all those who wished to play and practice began. A Varsity was chosen and We played our first game with Kings- ton High School. Throughout the winter months more games were played with Wilkes-Barre Day School and Penn Hall. Although there were no victories this seas- on, there were many close games and a spirit of friendly rivalry and good sportsmanship prevailed throughout. Undoubtedly the most exciting game of the year was a return game with Kingston on our floor. In this game Seminary took an early lead and held it up until the last three minutes of play, when Kingston, in a last attempt, managed to get the ball for a quick suc- cession of baskets and Win the game. Much credit is due to Miss Harris for her capable direction and Elinor Tremayne for her splendid co- operation as manager. 'The season was concluded by the distribution of letters to the members of the Varsity. WHAT'S UP, DOC? 'l'HA'l S ONE FOR OUR SIDE! WHAT'S YOUR GUESS!
