T wenty-four Cla S i tetorp 1930 The beginning of the third decade of the Twentieth Century marks a new era in the life and history of the Albany College of Pharmacy. The Alumni, students and interested friends marvel at the extensive advances which have been made under the inspiring leadership of Dean Mansfield, who might well be called “The Mystery Man.” Faith seems to be the foundation of his schemes; and unbounded confidence in Pharmacy and Pharmacy’s friends and alumni, the guarantee of continued success for A. C. P. “Veni! Vidi! Vici! The call of triumph of the immortal Caesar may well be adapted as the slogan of the Class of ’30. At last we are done with what we call school days. Equipped now and capable, we hope, of carrying on in our work in the wider sphere of everyday life. Amid a popular confusion of thought and alluring artificiality of action, both pronounced and positive in this day, it will present no little problem for us. Late in September Pharmacy’s sons returned to her campus and felt the first throb of importance as they deigned to notice the green-capped “ frosh ” walking nervously and uncomprehendingly through the halls of the college. Soon the massive portals swung open and revealed the interior, a new, colorful setting in which we were to receive our final instruction. No longer need the aspiring bard or the clamoring orator be subdued and muffled in his lofty endeavors by the drabness and misery of darkened walls and dingy ceilings. Albany Pharmacy has come into its own and a feeling of welcome and goodfellowslnp glows from its quiet walls and spotless corridors. We pride ourselves on enjoying the benefits of this great institution. Our struggles and toils were lessened by the various activities, both social and athletic, which were interposed throughout our curriculum, and most welcome respites they were indeed. First came Field Day, followed closely by class elections which gave us an afternoon of fiery speeches, excitement, and political animosities, which were forgotten as soon as the results were known. Max Braunschweiger was reelected as President of our class and was again given the responsibilities of representing this class of '30. He had the cooperation of Lauren Hanmer the chosen of the Pli.C. Class. Margaret Aiossa and Elmer Oldroyd shared the office of Vice-President. Andrew Adams and Harry llonikel, those two gentlemen above reproach who assumed the honest man expression on election day, took care of the funds in a rather thorough manner. William Martin had the enviable luck to have Dorothy Sayers as his co-partner in recording the) affairs of the class in the minutes. Salvatore Durant and Jack Hurliehy, being men of sober judgment and sound mind, were elected to present a review of the class to the waiting public. A1 LePrell was Twenty-seven responsible for the voluminous notices which were sent to the papers but alas never printed. Martin Sloane was elected to edit the year book, the Alembic Pharmakon. After his regretted going, Jacob Bauer was chosen to carry on the work of presenting the record of the past years. Under the efficient leadership of these officers, we were able to enjoy a most successful school term, both in' social activity and scholastic endeavor. The basketball team, one of the best in the history of the college was coached very carefully by Joseph Kilcy. A much more difficult schedule was arranged by Manager Hayes and, as was expected, the team presented a very spirited showing against the aggregations with whom they were matched. The Freshman Hop, the Junior Prom and the Senior Dance, all provided a very welcome respite from the more serious affairs at the college. Beautiful girls, soft music, twinkling lights and the glories of the rainbow all helped to make these affairs of an unforgettable character. The dances following the games were the best ever, thanks to the exceptional music furnished by the college orchestra. Starting the year with a decided lack of material a fine dance band was developed much to the delight of the stu- dent body. Our bi-monthly publication, the Mortar and Pestle was published in a bigger and better form and now is firmly fixed as the official news bringer to the stu- dents. It must be impressed, however, in the minds of the student body that it was their paper and its success depends to the most part on its subscribers in the under classes, as well as in the senior group. An innovation at the school was the establishment of a model pharmacy on the ground floor. This practically perfect example of a modern store has been of unlimited value and interest to the student body as well as to alumni. Classes in practical store procedure arc held to acquaint the student with the principles to be taught only in the functioning pharmacy. Three of the happiest years of our lives have been spent here and our parting is a sweet sorrow; sorrow because of our farewell, sweet because of our realiza- tion of the dreams we have dreamed, the attainment of our goal. Our faculty symbolizes a mighty cataract which has been generating power for us for three years. How have we received that power ? Let our work be a reflection of their patient teaching. T.et us never dishonor our Alma Mater but always strive to uphold that dignity and prestige which she has carried so proudly for over half a century. Let us carry a deep affection in our hearts for our Alma Mater as long- as we shall the power to live, knowing that she and her faculty stand back of us, ready to nod approvingly as we go on adding to the long-standing record which has been so creditable.

CLASS Fifty-six Junior Class Jgotes During the month of September, 1928. the portals of the Albany College of Pharmacy were opened to its new arrivals, the Freshmen, who had come to that institution for the purpose of preparing themselves in a life’s career in Phar- macy. Many new friends were thus formed in that first year of college life. Lasting friendships and good times were enjoyed among each other which will long be remembered. The first few weeks were strange in getting accustomed to the routine of the college as to the lectures, recitations and laboratory work of our new and interesting studies. Gradually the group settled down to the purpose for which it had come, to study. During the first quarter, the University and College sections convened and elected their class leaders. The University Section chose Harold E. Veeder of Fonda, N. Y., as their class President. President Veeder carried on his class duties in the justifiable manner in which his class chose his selection. The students of the College Course on their assembly chose James McArdle of Newburgh, N. Y., as their class representative. The selection of President McArdle by his fellow-classmates was as noteworthy to the class as were his duties to his class and school. The big event of the year was the “ Freshman Hop ” held in the auditorium of the college. Members of the Faculty and many Alumni attended. The mem- bers of the class will long remember this first formal affair of their college life. The year passed quickly and (be following September found us back again to renew our studies. Some old faces were missed and hoped for. We now felt somewhat more important in college, assuming the office of Juniors. This year the University Section elected Edmond Kolbie of Schenectady, N. Y., as their class president. President Kolbie carries bis duties in the manner befitting that office. He is Associate Editor on the Mortar and Pestle staff. The convention of the College Section brought the reelection of James McArdle to the executive office. President McArdle again justified the faith placed in him by his classmates by his admirable execution of his office and his work in activities of the school. The class settled down to its studies and will endeavor to make itself a banner class. Fifty-seven On February 7, 1930, the Junior Prom was held in the College Auditorium and labelled a success, thanks to the untiring efforts of the various committees in charge. The Auditorium was decorated in the finest of splendor. The dance was enjoyed by the Faculty and the Alumni who travelled from far to be present. The music was provided by an excellent orchestra who delighted the dancers with dreamy waltzes and snappy foxtrots to suit the desires of everyone. The affair was one to be long remembered by the members of the class as well as those present. The affair was well handled by the reception committee who afforded the dancers an enjoyable time. The girls came adorned in the finest of raiment which always adds color to any affair. So passes another year of college life and atmosphere never to be regained in life. k A. I. Zaro, W. G.

CLASS FRESHMAN PII.G. CLASS Sixty-two Jfrestfjman Class Jrtstorp On a warm fall day in September, 1929, nearly seventy-five students assem- bled in the College of Pharmacy on New Scotland Avenue to await the opening. They had assembled from their quiet and peaceful homes in village and hamlet and had placed themselves in this roaring city of iniquities and pitfalls. Little did they realize what dangers lay before thenit'vvhat temptations they would have to resist, and what effort they would have to extend to be among those who would step ahead into the uncharted sea known as the Junior year. Naturally, for a while they were a loosely organized crowd that slept during lectures. It was during these periods that acquaintances sprang up, some between the students and others among the profs and students. Trainor of the Ph.G. section and Collins in the Ph.C. section were chosen to lead their classes. The work of all the officers was made very pleasant due to the cooperation each man gave the other in their respective offices. Prof. C. Lee Huyck was chosen Faculty advisor by a unanimous vote. Immediately after elections the political animosities so freely displayed were forgotten and the classes settled down to concentrate on the first quarter exam- inations. Despite advice from both Juniors and Seniors the exams resulted in a lavish display of red on the cards. The Freshman class was well represented in the athletic field as well as in the several other activities including dramatics and orchestra. After enjoying their first recess, the members of the class sat down to prepare for their second quarter quizzes. Their efforts were of no avail however, and again the crimson flowed freely to the dismay of all affected. Everywhere tight lipped and moist eyes students could be seen standing in disconsolate groups while the paternal Seniors stood and nodded their heads knowingly. As a diversion to the trials and tribulations of school life they enjoyed the Frosh Hop in the school auditorium. The dance continued until early morning when the happy though tired throng gathered their wraps and fled in their pill boxes. Soon came the third quarter exams and things looked black—and they were. The class “ came through ” and was rewarded for their studious pursuit of knowl- edge far into the small hours of dawn. Surviving the siege of “spring fever” they fought onward to reach the final exams of their frosh year. Sixty-three On moving up day, with their Senior friends leaving them they also began to look through the haze of the next two years where could be seen dangling before them the sheepskin for which they had undertaken the three year’s work. The class reminds all critics that they arc but new and raw material and that they have as high aspirations as any class preceding them. To this end the class of ’32 bids its friends ado with a promise of a bigger and better record in the remaining two years. Willard A. Canfield, Claud Reed, H istorians MAIN ENTRANCE Sixty-four J|t£torp anb Debelopmciit of tfjc gflbanp College of flljarmacp The idea of organizing a College of Pharmacy originated with Mr. Archibald McClure head of the firm of A. McClure and Co., wholesale druggists, Albany. He, with the assistance of Dr. Willis G. Tuckcwmd Mr. Gustavus Michaelis, and Mr. Charles Gibson of his firm, called a meeting on November 18, 1878 of the pharmacists of the City to consider the advisability of forming a pharmaceutical association with the view to establishing a school of pharmacy, to he conducted by the association. At this meeting a committee was appointed to prepare a plan for organization. Owing to lack of interest no further steps were taken to secure the organization of a school of pharmacy by Albany pharmacists. In the fall of 1880 Dr. Willis G. Tucker, Mr. Gustavus Michaelis, Mr. Archibald McClure, Dr. Jacob S. Mosher and Mr. Joseph W. Russell met and decided that a better plan of organization than that previously proposed, would be to establish a department of pharmacy in Union University. A plan of organization was drawn up by Dr. Tucker, approved by the others, and presented by them to Dr. E. N. Potter, then president of the Univer- sity. He approved of the project and presented it to the Board of Governors of the University. At the annual meeting of this board held June 21, 1881, the Albany College of Pharmacy was created to constitute the Department of Pharmacy of Union University. A board of trustees was immediately appointed and the school incorporated as The Albany College of Pharmacy in conformity with the laws of the State of New York, August 27, 1881. The first faculty consisted of Dr. Jacob S. Mosher, President of the Faculty and Professor of Botany and Materia Medica; Dr. Willis G. Tucker. Secretary of the Faculty and Professor of Chemistry and Mr. Gustavus Michaelis, Pro- fessor of Pharmacy. The first lecture was given on October 3, 1881. The lecture room and laboratories of the medical college were used for purposes of instruction. In 1881 and for several years subsequent to that date four subjects only were taught namely—Botany, Materia Medica, Pharmacy and Chemistry. The course was of twenty-one weeks duration. Juniors attended five hours a week for twenty-one weeks, a total of 105 hours. Seniors attended three hours Sixty-five a week for twenty-one weeks, or a total of 63 hours. In the two year course a total of 168' hours of lecture and laboratory work was given. Owing to the death of Dr. Jacob S. Mosher in August, 1883, Dr. Alfred B. Huested was appointed Professor of Botany and Materia Medica and Dr. Tucker became president and dean of the faculty. No important change occurred in the professorships until 1903 when Professor Michaelis resigned the active professorship and Mr. Garret V. Dillinbeck was appointed associate professor of the department. After this date there were numerous changes in the faculty. Of special interest, however, was the appointment of Edwin C. Hutman in 1903 as Director of the Pharmaceutical Laboratory and his later appointment in 1918 ■as Professor of the Theory and Practice of Pharmacy, also the appointment of William A. Larkin in 1906 as Instructorem Physics and his appointment in 1920 as Professor of Chemistry. Growth of the College under its Presidents Mr. Joseph W. Russell was elected president in 1881 and served until 1899. In 1890 the first Pharmacy Laboratory course opened in a loft on Beaver Street opposite the Knickerbocker Press building. Attendance was compulsory on Thursday and Friday from 2 to 5 P. M. for a period of ten weeks. Tn the Fall of 1893 the College acquired a new pharmacy laboratory in the loft of the Van Huesen Charles building on Broadway. A reading room was provided for day students and a Pharmacognosy Laboratory was in use for the first time. Tn 1895 a two hour course in Practical Microscopy was given for the first time by Dr. MacFarlane to the Senior Class during a period of ten weeks. Half hour recitation periods became compulsory at this time. William J. Walker, senior partner in the firm of Walker and Gibson, whole- sale druggists, was elected president of the Board of Trustees in 1899, he served until 1904. He died May 10, 1904. In 1899 the Pharmacy Laboratory was moved to the top floor of the building on the corner of Maiden Lane and North Pearl .Street. In 1902 Physics and Pharmaceutical Mathematics were added to the course. In 1903 the Faculty conducted recitations for candidates preparing for the State Board Examinations. Mr. Charles Newman was elected president in 1904 and he served until 1916. In 1904 a State Law wras enacted requiring all candidates for State Board examinations to be graduates of a College of Pharmacy. In 1905 the State Law required matriculants in colleges of pharmacy to secure a Pharmacy Student’s Qualifying Certificate based upon the completion Sixty-six of one year of high school or the equivalent of twelve Regent’s counts. In 1906 the entrance requirements were increased to fifteen counts. In 1907 toxicology was added to the course and in the following year physiology and Latin were added. In 1909 the Pharmacy Laboratory moved from Maiden Lane to Howard Street. In the following year the Pharmacy Laboratory was moved to Eagle Street. In 1911 a Senior Chemistry Laboratory was established in our present quarters. In 1915- the Junior Qualitative Laboratory was moved from the Medical College to Eagle Street. From that dale to June 1927 all the work was done in the old college building on Eagje Street. Mr. Charles Gibson was- elected president of the Albany College of Pharmacy in 1916. His knowledge of all branches of the drug business and his active interest in educational work eminently fitted him to become president of the board of trustees. Under his leadership, in 1918, Dr. William Mansfield, the present dean, was appointed and the college reorganized, the faculty increased, new courses of study provided, the hours of study lengthened and more class rooms and new laboratory equipment added. All these changes were timely and necessary to meet the constant growing- need of better elucated and better practically trained pharmacists. The wisdom of these changes is shown bv the rapidly increasing numbers of students who have taken advantage of the facilities offered at the Albany College of Pharmacy for those desiring a sound pharmaceutical training. The educational policy of the Albany College of Pharmacy was changed when an agreement was made January 27, 1920 between the Board of Governors of Union University and the Board of Trustees of the Albany College of Phar- macy amending the charter of the Albany College of Pharmacy. That part of the charter of special interest to students and Alumni is as follows: “And Whereas the Albany College of Pharmacy under the Act of 1873 was established by the Governors of Union University and recog- nized by the Board of Regents, July 12, 1881 with power to confer the degree of Graduate in Pharmacy only BE IT RESOLVED that the Governors of Union University hereby formally apply to the Regents of the University for the modification of the organic law or charter of the Union University to the intent that undergraduate and graduate courses in Pharmacy may be organized by the school and appropriate degree in conformity with the requirement of the Regents may be con- ferred by Union University.” Proceeding under the amended charter Sixty-seven the Pharmaceutical Chemist Course was authorized by the Trustees of the college and approved by the Board of Governors of Union University as meeting the requirements of the New York Statutes and the Regents Rules. At a meeting of the Board of Trustees held November 3, 1927 Warren L. Bradt was unanimously elected President of the Albany College of Pharmacy. President Bradt graduated in 1889. Upon completion of his course he entered his father’s pharmacy which was located on the site of the present Edu- cation Building. IIis business is now located at Steuben Street and Broadway. In 1900 he was elected Secretary of the State Board of Pharmacy a position which he capably filled. During his term of office all the legislation regulating the practice of pharmacy was enacted. The College and the pharmacists of the State owe a debt of gratitude to Mr. Bradt for his untiring efforts in behalf of higher educational and ethical stand- ards for pharmacists. Mr. Bradt held the office of Secretary of the State Board of Pharmacy for twenty-five years. On July 1st, 1925 he resigned in order to devote more time to his pharmacy and other business interests. He is a member of the Rotary Club, Albany Country Club, University Club, Fort Orange Club and Master Lodge No. 5 F. and A. M., State Pharmaceutical Association and American Pharmaceutical Association. He was a member of the building and equipment committees which had direct charge of the work of erecting and equipping the new college. The completion of the new college building in 1927 marked the beginning of a new era for the Albany College of Pharmacy. Every laboratory is equipped with modern desks and up to date apparatus for carrying on the work of botany, materia medica, chemistry and pharmacy. The new building was occupied for the first time in the Fall of 1927 at which time the College began the three year College Course for candidates for the Graduate in Pharmacy (Ph.G.) degree. The more thorough training that will be given in the three year course will enable the College to graduate better trained pharmacists. Two thousand six hundred and twenty-four hours of instruction is given in three years, eleven hundred and twenty hours of this time is devoted to laboratory practice. The University Course of three years was also started in the Fall of 1927. Candidates who successfully complete this course will receive the degree of Pharmaceutical Chemist (Ph.C). Three thousand seven hundred, and forty-four hours of instruction are given in three years, one thousand six hundred and sixty-four hours of this time is devoted to laboratory practice. Sixty-eight The subjects taught during the three year College Course is as follows: Materia Medica Department Botany Physiology and First Aid Botanical Taxonomy Histology Materia Medica and Toxicology- Macroscopic Pharmacognosy and Posologv Microscopic Pharmacognosy Bacteriology Chemistry Department Inorganic Chemistry Qualitative Analysis Elementary Physics Pharmaceutical Testing Organic Chemistry Quantitative Chemistry Quantitative Analysis—Drug Assaying Pharmacy Department Pharmaceutical Mathematics Pharmaceutical Latin Theoretical and Practical Operative Pharmacy Manufacturing Pharmacy Dispensing Pharmacy Commercial Pharmacy Pharmaceutical Jurisprudence The University Course The University Course, in addition to all the work of the three year College Course, includes German Civics English Laboratory physics Advanced dispensing pharmacy Advanced manufacturing pharmacy Advanced analytical chemistry Sixty-nine Advanced mathematics Bacteriology Chemical urine analysis Microscopic urine analysis Union University confers the degree of Pharmaceutical Chemist (Ph-C.) upon students of the Albany College of Pharmacy who successfully complete the three year University Course. Thirty-nine hours of instruction is given each week over a period of thirty- two weeks for each of the three years. The advanced lecture and laboratory instruction given in this course qualifies the recipient of the degree to fill such positions as food and drug chemists, analy- tical chemist, manufacturing pharmacist, and pharmacognosist with large manu- facturing, wholesale drug and chemical houses. The Albany College of Pharmacy has to date eighteen hundred and ten graduates. This number will be rapidly added to because of the large classes now in attendance. It is the purpose of the Trustees and Faculty of the Albany College of Pharmacy to maintain an educational standard in keeping with the best traditions of the University and the advancements made in the several sciences taught.

The organization was entirely literary in origin and soon expanded into the institutions of Russell Military Academy, Cheshire Military Academy, Hillhouse High School and Yale College. The fraternity was carried into many medical schools by its members and was first reorganized at the Medical College of Virginia, School of Pharmacy, in December, 1879. In 1887 the academic chapters were discontinued and the fra- ternity placed on a strictly professional basis. Alpha Chapter or the “Grand Chapter ’’ was first on the roll and has met annually from 1886 to 1908 and since that time every two years. In 1907 Delta Omicron Alpha Medical Fraternity of Tulane University merged with Kappa Psi. Shortly after Phi Delta Medical Fraternity of the Long Island Hospital Medical College also merged. At the National Convention of 1926 it was decided to divide the medical and pharmaceutical chapters. The name of the fraternity was lengthened to Kappa Psi Pharmaceutical Fraternity. P eta Delta chapter was organized at the Albany College of Pharmacy, Union University, at Albany, New York, in the year 1910. It has occupied from its first inception a prominent place in the college and on the campus. The college year 1928-1929 was probably one of the most successful in the history of the Chapter. Under Regent Harry Unbehend’s efficient leadership the fraternity affairs were conducted in a very satisfactory manner. The year 1929-1930 was opened by a smoker at the school on Oct. 10, the chapter having left the house at 2 Woodlawn. This smoker was attended by many freshmen as well as the active body. On Nov. 21 a very delightful informal dance was held at the Woman’s Club. During the year initiations were held and several of the students were admitted to membership in the fraternity. The entire body was without doubt the most active in extra-curricular affairs as well as having in its membership several men of high scholastic merit. The annual formal was given at the Hampton and was highly enjoyed by the members and many alumni. The affair was held on Feb. 8. The Annual Banquet is to be held in May and all members and many alumni are anticipating a pleasant evening. The members of Kappa Psi in the class of ’30 have endeavored to carry on in the true Kappa Psi manner and hope their efforts will he further added to by the brothers who have yet to reach their final year at the college. May they be successful. Seventy-four Collegiate Chapter Gamma . Epsilon Eta Theta . Iota Ka ppa . Lambda Mu Mu Omicron Pi Nu Xi O MICRON Pi Sigma Tau Ups i lon Phi Chi Psi Omega .

Beta, the next chapter to be given a charter was founded at the Albany College of Pharmacy in the spring of 1921. The fundamental aim of this fraternity is to create a spirit of good fellow- ship among the men. Rho Pi Phi now embraces fifteen chapters'ttnd is about to include a sixteenth and seventeenth chapter. The first achievement of Beta for the year of ’29 was the opening of the first Beta Chapter House at 18'5 Warren Street, with thirteen men in the house. A great deal of credit is due all the “Fraters” for their untiring efforts in making this a real home. None of the boys will ever forget the happy hours spent in the house. A house warming dance was held soon after occupancy. The dance was well attended by Actives and Alumni. The Formal Dinner Dance was held at the Knickerbocker Inn. Many of the boys from distant places returned for the event. We are sure that no one regretted the time spent at the affair. The first event for the “ Ropes ” of '30 was the annual smoker which was conducted at the College, October 1. This meeting was opened by a brief welcome from Chancellor Martin J. Sloane. The smoker was well attended and everyone enjoyed himself fully. The next big event was the Pledge Dance at the New Kenmore Grill. The committee performed their work very efficiently and deserve thanks. The brothers and alumni danced to Billy Lustig's Scranton Sirens until the wee small hours when all reluctantly gathered their wraps and left. The Rho Pi Phi Annual Convention was held in New York, December 26-29, at the Hotel Pennsylvania. Beta was ably represented by Milton R. Westerman and Charles D. Isaacson. Martin J. Sloane and Abe Einstein attended the con- vention as guests of the Fraternity. Initiations were held February 13, the new brothers being Morris Doffner and Louis Levinson. Plans were then laid out for our biggest social event of the year. The Crystal Room at the DcWitt Clinton was chosen as the scene and the committee made elaborate plans for the success of the Formal. Seventy-nine ALEMBIC PHARAAKON Although fond memories of the dance still linger in our minds Commence- ment Week brings our Annual Formal Banquet, the last official gathering of the Seniors of Beta. In reviewing the events of the past year, credit must be given to all the brothers for their unflagging support and cooperation which made this a most suc- cessful year for Bela Chapter. The Seniors leave the reins of Beta in the hands of the Junior and Freshmen brothers. We are sure that they' are capable and eager to keep the ideals of the Fraternity high and we leave them with a fond hope to again meet someday, somewhere, as one united brotherhood.

With these principles to guide them they founded Epsilon Phi Fraternity. Under the leadership of George Niles Hoffman, now a leading contributor to pharmaceutical journals, and Ralph Young, whose scholarship and personality caused him to be chosen valedictorian of his class, the fraternity was well organ- ized and flourished. Soon, however, the activities of Epsilon Phi had to be suspended, for at the entrance of the United States into the World War many fraternity men answered the call. In 1922 reorganization began. Under the leadership of Frank A. Squires, now a member of the faculty, the fraternity was so thoroughly rejuvenated that when he retired from its presidency the fraternity had assumed large proportions. Peter Danzilo succeeded to the presidency. His many ideas, combined with his ability to carry them out, greatly strengthened the organization. Not only was Brother Danzilo’s work in the fraternity appreciated but his capacity for laying facts before the members of the class in its meetings won for him the respect of the entire student body. Next to occupy the office of president was Harold J. Lynn followed by Kenneth Hunter, both proving worthy of the office and directing the affairs through their successful years. jay Enich next became president by virtue of his scholastic standing and personality. During his tenure of office the number of active members greatly increased and under his leadership the next great step, that of nationalizing the fraternity, really began. In 1926 Earl Green was elected to fill the executive office, but due to sudden illness was forced to leave school. He was succeeded by Vice-President Lester Chickering, who finished the term very successfully. Larry Zimmer took the helm of the fraternity in the fall of 1927. With his originality and pleasing personality the fraternity was led into a new regime. Ellsworth Smith, the following president, carried out many of his predecessor’s ideas to the great benefit of the fraternity. His term of office brought the group to a very firm footing, and left to Joseph Purcell a clean slate upon which to build his work for the fraternity. Eighty-three In the fall of 1928 Epsilon Phi held its annual smoker in the college building. Professors Dewell, Munson, and Scharbach were present and with their speeches helped to make the affair the success that it certainly was. At the close of the year the Fraternity’s Seventh Annual Banquet was held at jack’s Restaurant. Many alumni were present and at Dean Mansfield’s sug- gestion, gave a review of their activities since leaving A. C. P. In the fall of 1929 the active members again held a smoker arid had as guests many of the “ Frosh.” This affair was most enjoyable. The annual Fraternity Dance was held at the Hampton. The ballroom was fairly thronged with alumni, actives and their guests and a very wonderful time was had by all present. At the final event of the year, the Eighth Annual Banquet, the members, though somewhat saddened at the thought of parting, gave vent to the spirit of brotherhood which filled their hearts at that affair. We remember, Max Braunschweiger, who was born with a cultivated mind. We hope he won’t die of brain fever. (Ed. note) He won’t! Ellsworth Smith, the “spirit” that’s always there: famous for Red .Sea. Charles Baker—What is that fearsome noise and clangor? Ah! Tis Charles and his noble chariot.

We have learned our lessons of fairplav, consideration for others and true sportsmanship. In striving for our common goal we have made mistakes which have served to further enlighten us and help us. Let us strive to higher things, yet not forgetting those who follow in our footsteps. We cannot but express our gratitude to our faculty for their patience and kindliness and their sincerity in fitting us for our calling. We feel that a real brotherhood has existed and will continue to exist in our fraternity. May our successors have the same good luck in all their efforts as we have had in ours. The Fraternity!

This union, created for the purpose of increasing the happiness and usefulness of its mem- bers, has since grown to thirteen chapters. Beta Chapter of Lambda Kappa Sigma was chartered at the Albany College of Pharmacy in the year 1919. It steadily increased the number of its members until the year 1928 when the membership of the sorority was greatly augmented by the initiation of twelve new members. This increased the total nongraduate membership to twenty-four girls. In 1929 the sorority was reduced in number to thirteen members. An original and novel pledging ceremony arranged by our Grand Secretary and Gamma member, Marietta Day, was adopted by the sorority in 1929 during the presidency of Margaret Aiossa. This impressive ceremony lent new dignity to the pledging system. The sorority had the honor of starting the run of social activities in the school year 1928-1929 by giving the “Autumnal Dance” on the twenty-fourth of October, 1928. This, too, was the celebration of the fifteenth anniversary of the founding of the sorority. Many activities such as card parties and teas, held at the school and at the homes of different members, provided pleasing entertain- ment during the term. The organization elected new officers for the year 1929-1930. Gladys Wain- man was chosen as president. Pledging was started shortly after election. The initiation was followed by the usual dinner. The formal installation took place at the DeWitt Clinton at the annual “ Initiation Banquet.” This affair was con- ducted in a novel manner and was a success in the fullest sense of the word. The Annual Subscription Dance followed. This was socially the biggest success of the year. Many other enjoyable atfairs occurred during the year. It is the sincere wish and earnest hope of graduating members that the organization will continue to grow and strengthen the bonds of friendship which have been formed. A vivid picture of the past three years will ever remain in the minds of the graduating members. M. A. Aiossa, Historian Eighty-seven General Committee Dr. Edgar A.

Although essentially a senior class book, the Board has tried to include all the matters of interest to the underclasses.

LEE HUYCK Director MORRIS SCIIWEBEL Student Leader ( refjestra The “ Pharmacopeans ” have established themselves on the campus and in the city as a great hand. Handicapped though they were in the lack of material, the college orchestra rounded out a fine dance group. Attendance at the games and other affairs was noticeably increased, due in no small measure to the attrac- tion of good dance music.

Every affair sponsored by this group has been an undeniable success. Through the efforts of this society the magnificent grand piano and beautiful stage curtains have been procured. In 1929 several plays were staged to the enjoyment of all attending. Variety was provided in the forms of a minstrel show which was, considering the novelty of the affair, very well managed and very well received. Considerable talent was discovered and indicated that a second show would follow. 1930 brought forth several more plays which were presented in March and April. “A Case of Suspension” by Louise.Latham Wilson and ‘‘A Dangerous Experiment ” by Frances Saltonstall were among the plays presented by the members of this society in 1930.

HUT MAN CHARLES MOSHER Faculty Advisor Editor-in-Chief fflovtav anb $e£tie The school semi-monthly publication has come through a hard year with some degree of success. The editors, although not given the necessary student cooperation, have worked earnestly to put forth a paper of interest. The first issues to be printed were well received, but interest lagged and the middle of the school term found the paper on its last legs. However, the idea of a school paper being fundamentally desirable, the editors again “ put on steam ” and for the sev- eral final issues gathered much material of interest and succeeded in again winning the approval of the student body by publishing a worth while periodical. The present system of having managers of activities report to the editing staff is not functioning with the effect anticipated at its inception. A more effective plan to obtain current news about the school seems to indicate the appointment of reporters who have some initiative to get the necessary material. In future years the paper will no doubt be brought up to a higher standard than that now in vogue. A change of layout and a more prompt printing arrange- ment will be quite important in bringing the paper up to the desired mark. The business managers and editors are to be commended for carrying on the publication of the paper in the face of much adverse criticism and a great deal of indifference.

She looked like a coed, he wondered whether she might be in any of his classes, her red hair made a startling canopy for her green eyes. She saw him, he looked rather nice, in his white coat with his brown eyes. Glasses rattled, the radio blared out in the corner, tongues wagged, Jim continued to watch her eyes; she his—at first with curiosity, then with a short cynical smile, that grew shorter and less cynical. She seemed to float toward the fountain, Jim saw warmth in the green eyes, they became almost blue, the brown in his almost black. He roused himself from the trance he seemed to have slipped into. No one appeared to have noticed them. Waiting for her order, he politely suggested, “a sherbet or a frappe?” “ No, a lemon coke, please,” she answered. Jim felt something flow out of him, leaving him cold, mechanically he pre- pared the drink and turning to his task of cleaning glasses he did not notice her leave. £egenb A story is told of a peasant with a troubled conscience who had come to a monk for advice. The peasant had circulated slander about a friend—only to find out later that it wasn’t true. The monk was old and wise. “ If you want to make peace with your con- science,” he said, “you must fill a bag with chicken down, go to every dooryard in the village, and drop in each of them one feather.” The peasant did as he was told. Then he came back to the monk and announced that he had done penance for his folly. “ Not yet,” said the monk sternly. “ Take up your bag, go the rounds again, and gather up every feather that you have dropped.” “ But the wind must have blown them all away.” “ Yes, my son,” replied the monk. “And so it is with gossip. Words are easily dropped, but no matter how hard you try, you can never get them back.” One Hundred Eight BASKETBALL TEAM ALEMBIC PHARAAKON JOSEPH L.

C. P. took rapid strides ahead during the 1929-1930 season. The schedule included many new teams which were rated very high in athletic standings among the smaller colleges in the east. Among these newcomers to the schedule were Union College, Niagara University, and Long Island University. St. John’s Pharmacy College, Hartwick College, and W ebb Institute of Naval Arch, were also new opponents. The season opened with a defeat at the hands of St. Michael’s to the tune of 33-32. St. Michael’s presented one of the best teams ever seen on the A. C. P. court and only poor foul shooting by the Pharmacy team saved them from defeat. Heidel excelled for Pharmacy, while Cajft. Dougan and Capello also played well. The second game, played against our arch rival, Law, also brought a defeat. The game was well played and the outcome remained in doubt up to the last minute. Allen helped Law win by the score 28-19. Capello played best for Pharmacy and Avnet guarded well. In the third game with Niagara, one of the best smaller eastern college teams, another defeat was chalked up against Pharmacy. The game was skillfully played and very fast. The tight defense of the Cataracts prevented any con- siderable scoring by Pharmacy, but the team was successful in drawing foul shots counting twenty-one points. Capello sank thirteen foul shots out of twenty-two and accounted for fifteen points throughout the game. The score was 57-33. Dougan and Heidel played a heady game. In a post Christmas holiday game with St. John's Pharmacy team, A. C. P. took the first victory with a score of 56-23. Heidel and Kowalski, who played two years ago and returned to uniform in this game, played best for Pharmacy- Two days later Long Island U invaded our court and won 41-31. In this game Kowalski’s defensive and the playing of Capello and Dobbins aided Phar- macy considerably. The team again broke through to win its second victory of the season at the expense of Cooper Union. The second half found a very aggressive Phar- macy team rolling up points at will. The final score was 45-28. Dougan and Capello featured on the offensive while Avnet and Kowalski took good care of the defense. In the next game Pharmacy played against a vastly superior team. Spring- field rolled up a 42-12 score easily and by an excellent defense kept Pharmacy from any field scoring. Kowalski’s defense work was our only consolation. In the following week A. C. P. met Union. During the first half Pharmacy played on even terms with their opponents but failed to keep up the pace and Union drew away to win by 41-19. Dougan, Kowalski and Avnet led the Phar- macy attack. One Hundred Twelve The following night saw Pharmacy win its third game from Hartwick College by the score of 45-15. Dougan and Kowalski led the scoring with 12 and 10 points respectively. The next week the Pharmacy team invaded Geneva to play Hobart. Although the quintet played the best of the season the game was lost by the score 26-20. Dobbins and Rafferty played good games for Pharmacy. After a night’s stay in Geneva the team proceeded to Cortland for the Cort- land Normal game. The teani| suffered a severe drubbing and lost by the score 56-20. The team had not recovered from their defeat bv Cortland before they met Webb Institute. Although the teamwork was still ragged Pharmacy managed to win 21-15. Avnet and Capello led the scoring and Rafferty played a good defensive game. The last game of the season was a return game with Cortland. The team although playing a much better game lost 36-24. With the closing of the season Heidel, Kowalski Dobbins and Thyne have played their last basketball for the college. Coach Kiley, Captain Dougan, Manager Hayes and Assistant Manager Yehle and the entire team deserve our congratulations for the splendid efforts they made to bring the college to the front in basketball circles. The season, though not a successful one in the line of games won, has served to bring the college into college athletics to a greater degree than ever. It has widened our sphere and provided for better competition for the team. Then too, it has served to give the necessary experience to those who will return next year and again strive to honor their college. SEASON RECORD St. Michael’s College....................... 33; A.

It can be said almost without a doubt that it was the most thrilling, most exciting and most enjoyable season in the history of bowling at the college. So close were the teams bunched, so keen was the rivalry, so spirited the competition, that not until the last night was the cham- pionship decided. And perhaps, in a side whisper it may be said that even then there were some few who doubted it; those few being men of knowledge, men of a superior nature, in fields embracing Pharmacy and its teachings. But, figures seldom lie and these doubting Thomases were finally forced to believe and accept the judgment passed upon them, bitter though the decision may have been. And also it may be stated, offhand and not pertinent to the matter, that seldom will luck have any strong influence upon the outcome of any competition. It is a greater thing that makes for high averages, namely, skill in guiding the ball into the 1-3 or 1-2 pocket. The season was begun on Sept. 30, 1929 and excepting vacations ran on for twenty-one weeks. Three games were rolled every Monday night and a total of 63 games comprised the year’s bowling. The Senior team although hard pressed at the end maintained the composure and calm assurance so characteristic of their group, even to the last night, when they confidently swept the pins down to win three games over the Juniors, who strove feverishly to overcome their leaders. The Senior team composed of Lange, Thyne, Bauer, Mosher, Ruscetta, Hauck and Davis was almost to a man the same aggregation who won the championship last year. No one rolled the entire 63 games but many were active in 60 matches. Lange, of the Senior team held the high average practically all year. DeVoe, prof. f. j. o’brien Faculty Advisor One Hundred Fourteen on the Junior team hit for 233, the high siugie, and Baurle gathered in 569 for a three game record. The Seniors captured ail honors including high single, high three and most games won. Following the league's closing an open tournament was held at the Recrea- tion alleys. The entire league participated and every one did his best to win one of the several prizes. Bauer, after starting poorly, came back to win the high three with 587. Hauck hit for 210 to take the high single. Guida and O’Brien received second prizes in the high three and high single respectively. Roy had the highest tenth frame scores and Ruscetta and Carmadre hit for blind prizes. FINAL STANDINGS AVERAGES Name Team Games High Single High Three Total Average 1.

A. SQUIRES Faculty Advisor EDMEDIO MARTORELLA Manager IXtfle QDeam The rifle team this year presented practically an entire new personnel. The freshmen supported the practice and were very much interested in the sport. The team had several matches with local groups, among which were Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Albany High School, Albany Academy, Christian Brothers Academy and others. With the evident support of the Freshmen the team should be capable of holding its own in future matches. Practice is held at the New Scotland Avenue Cavalry Armory. Lortie shot the best scores for the year. Emedio Martorella, as manager, worked hard to get a good representation together. Lortie worked with him to maintain the sport in its position on the athletic schedule. Prof. Squires again gave his invaluable assistance with the group.

C. 1’., though few in number are quite capable of providing good competition for their rivals. The track team was composed of several men from each class and while time was not available for serious practice they had several workouts before the season opened. Matches which had to be run in the spring were few in number and included the Jewish Community Center, Albany High, Cathedral High and Vincentian. State College was to be scheduled for a later date. The early closing date of the college makes it rather impera- tive that all contests be staged very early and this fact shortens our track season outdoors, considerably.

SQUIRES Faculty Advisor MICHAEL YUDA M onager Jteetiall Although baseball is a comparatively new sport at the college it has already established itself as unit in our athletic schedule. Due to the extremely short time in which to practice arid play a schedule the games played have been of necessity few in number. The year 1928-1929 saw a new outfit, lead by Paul Kowalski and managed by “Mike” Yuda, fight their way to three victories out of five games. Arrayed in spick and span uniforms the team opened the season against Albany High. Despite “ Red ” Mclnerney’s excellent mound work our opponents led by two runs at the end of the ninth. In the following week, the team, further fortified by a week of outdoor practice, won a game over the New York State Health Lab aggregation to the tune of 12 to 5. Encouraged by their success the team practiced harder than ever and shortly after met R. P. I. The Engineers were too strong, however, and trimmed A. C. P. 14 to 9. Virgil started ip that game and pitched a good game. When we met the Rurrough Adding Machine School the A. C. P. nine was at its best. Virgil and McTnerney allowed but seven hits and helped bring Pharmacy to the lead. The final score was A. C. P. 18, B. A. M. 6. The final game of the season was against the N. Y. S. Lab team whom we had defeated earlier in the season. The perfect support given our pitchers enabled the team to again win by the score 15 to 8. The 1930 team has high hopes of bettering the previous record and will shortly begin practice prior tp meeting the teams scheduled. The complete schedule will include R. P. I., State, Burrough School, N. Y. S. Lab, N. Y. Tele- phone, L. I. University, St. John's Prep, Berkshire School, Berkshire Prep and Adams. Under Coach “Joe” Kiley the team will have an excellent opportunity to further fix baseball as a major sport here.

A large squad turned out for practice and much material is available. Assistant Manager Dygert has arranged a schedule of games with local schools, among which are Albany High. Schenectady High, R. P. I., State, Albany Academy. At the time of this writing negotiations are underway for the procuring of Ridgefield Park for preliminary practice games and for home matches. Several men arc playing their last tennis for the college. Lange, Bauer, Hauck and a few others are graduating. The schedule of matches will cover two or three weeks in May prior to the finals. One Hundred Twenty-five EMBIC PHARAARON PROF. B. G. DEWELL Faculty Advisor DE WITT DUTCIIER M onager i£ totmmtng The “ cleanest ” sport has not been fortunate at A. C. P. this year to have a sufficient number of representatives to maintain its former status as a major. Due to the decided lack of available material and also to a lack of interest, the college was unrepresented in local swimming matches. Howver, one thing was accomplished in this field. Practically every man in the student body demonstrated his ability to swim at least fifty yards. Others were given adequate instruction and before graduation will be able to “ do the fifty. This requirement is an extracurricular regulation that must be complied with before graduation. It is hoped that following years will again restore to swimming the place it so rightly deserves in campus activities.

One Hundred Twenty-eight EXTRACTS FROM BOOK OF COLLEGE ETIQUETTE: HOW TO BECOME THE FACULTY’S FRIEND Aside from the satisfied feeling that will result from good marks there is, of course, the simple pleasure of association and intimacy which the college man will enjoy on “making friends” with the faculty. If the man entering A. C. P. would attain the goal the following is the correct procedure: Always remember that first impressions are the most lasting, and concen- trate on winning over each professor the first day in the class room. The same method can be used on each instructor until you are on the most intimate terms with each faculty member. ■' First wait until ten or fifteen after the third bell and then burst into the classroom, making as much noise as possible. It would be advisable to employ the aid of a large cow bell to make sure of attracting the attention of the pro- fessor. Assuming a nonchalant air of give and take, step up and slap the pro- fessor smartly on the back, and ejaculate a hearty “ Howdy, Prof.” He will at once see that you are not one of the ordinary run of students and your first point is won. He will then say “ Late.” You say “ So am I,” and if he kicks you firmly through the doorway, simply assume a well bred attitude of tolerance and re-enter taking a seat in the back of the room. All the rear seats will, without a doubt, be taken, but stamp on the feet of the man in the nearest seat, and when he gets up, you sit down. From here on your main idea is to keep the professor’s attention focused on you. This can be done in several ways, such as a continual, brisk tapping of the feet, rolling dice with your nearest neighbor, or whistling an air. However, do not let success turn your head, but be sure an impression remains with the pro- fessor when you leave the room. This can be accomplished by throwing a book at him, or gracefully dropping the waste basket over his head as you pass out. You may think that your goal is attained, but it is best to clinch the issue by calling on the professor’s wife and presenting her with a potted dandelion. If she takes it with her left hand it means the professor is out every Tuesday night. If with the right, it means I may look old but I have young ideas, but if she takes it with both hands and brings it down firmly on your head, it is best to make a dignified retreat and call at a more propitious time. Nick: Is he famous? Doc: Famous! Why, he even has a three decker sandwich named after him! One Hundred Twenty-nine First Cowboy: Let’s go lasso a couple of bulls.

And, the percolator fell over and strained its coffee. “ How docs Rose like your new mustache ? ” “ Darn it, 1 forgot to show it to her.” “ What’s the idea of all the crowd at church ? ” “ There’s a traveling salesman down there confessing his sins.” “ Well, how are you this morning? ” asked the manager. “ Fare,” replied the conductor. Skeleton keys are not made of bones. Aged Minister: Ahem, my dear girl, about your skirt, don’t you think you should show some more discretion ? Modern Miss: Some of you guys are never satisfied.

Larkin Dean Mansfield and the Faculty The Student Body The Brandow Printing Company The Austin Empire Engraving Company The Obenaus Studios Mr. George Klink The Alembic Pharmakon Advertisers Hundred Thirty-eight Union $fmrmacj A MODEL PHARMACY A busy babble of voices, the calm poised statements of clerks, the occasional ringing of a cash register bell and the muffled con- versation of prescription pharmacists with patients who have brought their precious slips of paper for the pharmacists in charge to decipher. A well lighted clean store interior with fixtures well disposed and full of the wares of a pharmacy: the gleaming soda fountain toward the front of the store reflecting a myriad lights and itself illuminated with a soft glowing resplendence. Along the ledge of the wall cases in the rear the row of neatly framed state licenses, among which stands proudly a symbol of ethical pharmacy for centuries, a mortar and pestle shining resolutely in all its silvery glory, a token of the unchanging pre-eminence of the professional pharmacist. So one is impressed on entry into this newest of innovations at the Albany College of Pharmacy. The pharmacy is licensed as the “ Union Pharmacy ” under the proprietorship of Edwin C. Hutman, Professor of Pharmacy at the college. This store, laid out. according to the latest theories, is used weekly by the different sections as the scene of a practical training in store conduct and salesmanship. Complete lines of many of the leading pharmaceutical manu- facturers fill the cases along the walls. Full stocks of many toiletry companies arc to be seen and lend an interesting angle to the interior. Sundries of every description are arranged tastefully and ready for customer inspection. Two half backed show windows on either side of the entrance display forcefully the vari- ous specialties and sundries included in the store stock. This pharmacy is laid out on the ground floor of the college building and its entrance faces the lower corridor. Visitors are wel- come and the various de- tails of its construction and management are explained by Professor Hutman and the Pharmacy Depart- ment. One Hundred Forty mmsmmmmmm.

As you turn its pages you will live again your joyous college days . . . see the faces of old friends . . . favdtite spots on the campus. A college annual should be the finest expres- sion of the printer’s art. Annuals by Brandow are that kind. For we feel obligated to live up to the confidence expressed by twenty-four leading colleges for whom we created year books last year. Brandow Books t t Win t ’ Awards of Merit HIGHEST HONOR RATING North Western University (Women's College Annuals) 1928 SECOND PRIZE, Private Pre- paratory Schools, Art Crafts Guild, 1927 THIRD AWARD, State High School Contest, Cornell Uni- versity, 1928 FIRST HONORABLE MEN- TION, (Women’s College An nuals) Art Crafts Guild, 1927 The printing of college annuals is, with us, more than the production of beautiful vol- umes ... it is a hobby—for we revel in the true job of creative, artistic craftsmanship. To withstand constant handling the covers are as sturdy as artistic. The type is clear, harmonious, balanced. A patented process makes it possible for us to produce cuts which retain all the pristine clearness of the original photographs. So well do we serve our schools that invariably the staffs have recommended us to their successors. It will be a pleasure to discuss with you the details of your next annual. The Brandow Printing Co.
