It is the body which directs the functions of the Honor System through the Honor Council. This group also serves as a general governing body for the student extra-curricular activities. The three main subsidiary committees include the Honor Coun- cil, Dining Hall Committee and Social Commit- tee. These groups give time, thought and great effort to the task of serving the students. This year progress was made toward a broad- ened social program, revitalized honor system and increased general student interest in the stu- dent government.

C. BEE STAFF Editor . . PASCO BGWMAN Sponsor . . . PROP. NEWCOMB Business Manager . IAMES EVANS The B, C. Bee, our campus newspaper, effectively records college events and current news as well as students' opinions and humor. Anyone with a flare for writing may easily find himself on the Bee staff, for it is written, edited, and pub- lished entirely by the students. The publication is issued every two weeks to students, faculty, and alumni of the college. Distribution of the B. C. Bee's is eagerly awaited by the subscribers. The latest news in all fields of college life is ex- pertly recorded in each edition. The front page receives the attention of most of the students first as it reports the special and most important events of college. A picture and appropri- ate, well-balanced headlines add to the attraction of this page. Timely editorials, students' opinions, letters to the editor, and other features constitute the second page. The sports page holds the supreme interest of the athletic-minded. Perhaps every athlete secretly scans this page first to see if his name made the news. One of the main articles here is by the one and only Squeaks who boldly states his predictions, recogni- tions, and challenging dares. Other well written articles keep the Bee's rating high in the opinions of its readers. The students who participate in preparing the B. C. Bee find their work exciting and challenging. The newcomers of the staff learn the make-up and process through which the paper goes before it is distributed. Knowing the news before it is printed is an opportunity all its own. Never to be forgotten is the satisfaction that comes to the Bee workers when they see the students read with approval the issues that kept the mid-night oil burning. And what writer can forget the thrill of reading and seeing others read his own article off the printed page? There are long working hours for the staff, but the ad- vantages and satisfactions are great. More and better facilities have aided the progress of this year's Bee staff. The use of a larger room in the Administra- tion Annex has improved working conditions. Other improve- ments in equipment have sufficiently supplied the new Bee office. Bud Bowman and Betty Kline, editor and associate editor, can well be proud of the caliber of the '53-'54 Bee. The staff, under the supervision of Professor Robert Newcomb, has earn- estly striven to give the students a bigger and better news- paper. To write what the subscribers want to read has been the goal of the staff. All of us know that this work has not been in vain, and that our '53-'54 B. C. Bee is rated with the best of college publications. u -M 1 ff I - l Top: Reporter Betty Cook, News Editor Rod Layman, Associate News Editor Helen Wild, Reporter Ray Srnitb, Sports Editor Barbara Kelly, Feature Editor Dick Qberrsbairr, and Re- porter Mary Hooker take a critical look at tbe issue of tbe Bee just released trorri the press.

But this job of making permanent these tangible impressions of the past for the future was a long, hard, and diffi- cult one, and one cannot hope to ful- fill the desires of every student. From the time the editor and busi- ness manager were elected until the day when the final copy was sent to the printer, a multitude of details con- fronted the staff. What style copy do we want? How should we organize the athletic section? What theme, layout, and design do we want to follow? And always that one big question, can we afford it. Yet, here it is-the work and ideas of many people. To these people, the entire editorial and business staff, the faculty and students of Bridgewater College and the extras who proof read, typed, and checked copies goes our appreciation. Our thanks are also ex- tended to Professor C. E. May for his assistance and encouragement as sponsor.

C. stu- dents by fulfilling their needs tor spiritual and social growth through study, worship and tel- lowship. The varied program at- tracts many students of all de- nominations, thus making it one ot the largest organizations on campus. The activities of the S. C. M. include weekly meetings for worship, study and recreation: sponsorship ot Friday chapel programs: deputation trips to churches of the region and the partial sponsorship of an lndian student, Henry Solanlcey, tor two years ot college. Une of the most important ac- tivities of the S. C. M. each year, is the B. S. C. M. Conference held at one oi the six Brethren col- leges, at which time each of the colleges is represented by a number of delegates. The S. C. M. is non-denomina- tional and is affiliated with the Y.

Since its organization in IQ47, the band has strived to arise the music standards of Bridgewater College and increase music appreciation among its students. Through the college band The Tri- College Band was organized which includes the bands of Shenandoah, Madison, and Bridgewater Colleges. Besides a spring concert for the college, the band made six or eight trips to high schools in the surrounding area where they gave forty-tive minute concerts to increase music appreciation among the high school students.

CLERICU The Clericus Chorus consists of twelve young men dedicated to Christian service, and, since its organization during the l948-49 session, has come to be one of the outstand- ing musical groups representing the college. Since its origin under the leadership of Phil Trout, the chorus has maintained its interest and vitality under the directorship of Earle Pike and Emmert Rice. The organization con- tinues to grow in popularity and service under its present director, Harry Lee Simmers. The Clericus Chorus, performing a cappella, pre- sents programs of hymns, anthems and spirituals. The interest the chorus has aroused in the college area has put it in popular de- mand for religious programs. Each year this unique musical organization presents varied S CHCRUS programs in churches, locally and throughout the Southeastern Region, some years present- ing as many as fifty programs. Besides the many week-end trips made to near-by areas through the winter and spring, the chorus gives its services to the college during the Spring Vacation by representing it on a Spring Tour to the more distant districts of the region. Past tours include the states of Florida, Geor- gia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennesee, and West Virginia. This year the Chorus made a successful tour through Pennsylvania. The young men comprising the membership of the Chorus have dedicated themselves to some form of Christian service and, through their experiences of presenting the Gospel in song, are finding new inspiration for their lives.

I Q M - Organized in l95l, the Business Club is now an outstanding organiza- tion on campus. lts members are serious-minded business and economics majors who are interested in establishing high ideals in the field of busi- ness. The main purposes of the Business Club are to promote Christian prin- ciples in the business world and student interest in current economic affairs. The club aids the present placement program of the college in placing Business Administration students in various business fields. Also, to increase the store of information available to students, the club has at- tempted to improve reference material in the library by adding magazines and pamphlets relating to the fields of business and economics. Enthusiastic members have embarked on a number of projects since the club was first organized. The purchasing ot a new merchant calculator for the Business Department was a great accomplishment and has since proven a very important addition. The members worked for and secured 4 hours credit lor the Principles ot Accounting course which previously gave only 3 hours credit. Since the members of the Business Club are vitally interested in posi- tions open to Bridgewater graduates, prospective employers are invited to address the club on the needs and requirements ot the modern business world. Besides lectures, there are debates and discussions which present to the members the practical aspects ot business and economics. Social events, such as banquets and outings, are held to complete the activity program of the club. 81 L fi-iiimiiiaii.-.ir '-.-1 CLERICUS The Clericus is composed of those men at school who plan to enter full-time Christian service.

DEBATE CLUB Resolved: That the United States Should Adopt a Policy of Free Trade. That was the national collegiate debate question for the 1953-1954 debating season, and it proved to be an interesting and informative one. The affirm- ative offered proof that a policy of free trade is necessary and would be advantageous. However, the negative endeavored to prove that such a policy would threaten the Ameri- can businessman. The experience gained by learning to think and reason, and by speaking in public will prove invaluable to those stu- dents who have participated. Bridgewater debaters have made a name for themselves and this year the debaters have strengthened that name. They won second place in the Eastern National T. K. A. Tourna- ment. They won many other honors and at- tended other meets among them being a tour- nament at the University of West Virginia. Intercollegiate debates were held with the University of Virginia, Lynchburg, Roanoke, V. P. l., Georgetown University, Hampden- Sydney, lohns Hopkins University, and others. The B. C. Debaters won more than their share of these events. The Virginia State T. K. A. Tournament was held on our campus in March. This tournament was directed by debate coach, Prof. Strunk. 41kWW 1 is-44141 W'w N Left to Right, First Row: M. Sadd, R. Watt, M. Lipscomb, and I. Myers. Second Row: D. Elle-r, A. Spigle, D.

The purpose of the club is service to the school, community, state, nation, and world. The organization is interested in the personal development of each member and the biweekly meetings are designed to encourage the members to be- come aware of the professional and personal aspects of home economics. Q Under the guidance of Miss Ruth Howe, the girls sponsor many various activities during the year. The United Nations dinner, which features foods from countries represented in the U. N., is the first main event. To commem- orate Washington's birthday and to find the Champion Pie Baker of Bridgewater, a pie baking contest is held for anyone who wishes to try his luck at such an art. There is also a fashion show every spring at which the girls' impressive Installation Service held the last of May climaxes the year's activities. Besides these main events, the girls hold several bake sales, sell mums to loyal football fans, package Christmas boxes for needy folk in the community, and take field trips to places of interest in the vicinity. The active members of the Mu Epsilon Mu are always on hand to add a domestic touch to campus life. l A B, If Coe C.: lsen Gan Tl Glow . JT i'-1-uf, . 1.

GUNSTON Head Football Coach 9' 1. 4? 9 , 1 L Under the tutorship of new Coach Paul Gunston, Bridgewater's Eagles experienced the best football season in the history of the school, as they racked up a campaign total of three victories and three defeats. Although the record is not indicative of a brilliant football team, .every loyal Eagle follower was shown that after five years of build- ing since the close of the war, Bridgewater is now ready to enter the doors of superiority in their class. Coach Gunston's crew opened their season with a hard-earned 6-U victory over the Shipbuilders of Newport News in the seacoast town, After being held twice inside the ten-yard line in the first half and fumbling the same number of times in the third quarter, Larry Pence finally found the key to success throwing to brother Fred for the TD. In their next outing the Eagles found themselves not quite up tO par with the Tigers of Hampden-Sydney, as the host team romped to a 26-O victory. lt was in this game that Iohn Gardner was lost due to injury, for the whole season, which was a great detriment to the Eagle's chance. Randolph-Macon, another old foe in the Little Six, followed up with a 27-12 win the next week. The game, which was marred by injuries, saw the Yellow Jackets draw first blood as lohnny Tkach plunged from six yards for the TD. The winners also tallied again in the second quarter when Quarterback Wade heaved a 27-yard pass into the waiting arms of End Tommy Litterer. Only one extra point was good, and the Yellow Iackets led l3-O. Bridgewater came roaring back to tally in the second Canto as Chatter Duncan cracked over from the one-yard line to make the scoreboard read l3-6 at half. The Iackets tallied twice in the third stanza on runs by Kenny SealS and Charles Nuttycombe. Larry Pence finished up the tallying for the day with a l3-yard run to give the final score 27-l2. Approximately l,5OO fans saw the men of Coach Gunston outplay a heavily favored Shepherd College eleven in their next game, as the locals eked out a 9-7 victory in the annual Homecoming classic. The Crimson and Gold scored in the first half on a pass from Chatter Duncan to Lee Knupp for a six point advantage at halftime. But from time to time, it was the line of Lee Knupp, Fred Pence, Charlie Kurtz, Sam Gouldthorpe, lim Whitmore, Bob May, Harold Lehmen, and Weston l-lare that made the difference, The front line stalwarts, paced by Kurtz, time and time again stopped the Ram attacks. 88 6 8 Q I O 'uma 'vial 5-fu -ll fain 1 .I 'A , .H ,403 l 4 'Q -nu .

However, the de- ciding blow came when Eagle Co-Captain lim Whitmore smashed through the line to block a punt that rolled out of the end zone for the victory. For the second straight year, the Eagles de- feated a fired-up Gallaudet College elev.en, this time by the score of 7-O. Chatter Duncan threw a pass into the outstretched arms of Freddie Fifer and then Fifer proceeded to boot the extra point for the margin victory. Although they were beaten 52-U by the pow- erhouse of Shippensburg State Teachers Col- lege, the Crimson and Goldplayed perhaps their best game for one half. The Teachers, who are perennially one of the nation's top teams in the small college ranks, were held to a 7-U lead going into the second half, but wh.en six Eagle starters were injured, the Teachers ran and passed at will. Coach Gunston remarked that he was very proud of the showing, and was sure that if the regulars had not been forced to watch the game from the bench for the Sec- Top: Frosh quarterback Larry Pence chews oi'f lU yards against Gallau- det as Fifer chips in with a key block.

Honors were also accorded to some of the Eagles, as Charlie Kurtz was named to the first team on the All-Little Six dream team. Kurtz was perhaps the oustanding player for the Eagles, as he constantly opened up holes in the forward wall, and was a workhouse on defense, leading the team in pass interceptions and in tackles, which numbered 97 for the six games. Co-Captain Sam Gouldthorpe, Iohnny Gardner, and Freddie Pence were also given recogni- tion when they were placed on the second team. Hats off to Coach Gunston and his very able assistant Danny Geiser for a good football team and for helping to put Bridgewater on the foot- ball map. Those boys who were outstanding for the Eagles throughout the year were Larry Pence, Chatter Duncan, Freddie Fifer, Sherrill Cheeks, Bobby Rhea, and Iohnny Gardner in the back- field, On the line, it was Freddie Pence, Lee Knupp, Bay Shull, Charlie Kurtz, lim Whitmore, Sam Gouldthorpe, Harold Lehmen, Wes Hare, Bob May and Dennis Cummings.

HOCKEY The Bridgewater girls Hockey squad bettered their per- formances of the previous year by making it an undefeated season in 1953. With plenty of experience and ability in the ranks the Eaglettes handled most of their opponents with ease as they posted an impressive 6-O record, The mighty eleven was built from a veteran studded seven-player nucleus of the 1952 team. Among the re- turnees were three former Allied tournament choices, Mary Hooker, Ioyce DeBolt, and Barbara Kelly, A compilation of the s,eason's statistics proves the strength of the Bridgewater eleven. During the season they amassed a total of 29 goals while they limited their opponents to a m.ere five. Also the success of the team can be credited to its in- creased depth in all positions this season. The utilization of substitutes by the coach, Miss Tandy, helped lessen the grueling pace of the game for some of the starters while it also gave some of the newcomers a chance at first hand experience in a game situation. As in previous years, six ot the Hockey teams in this area were entertained at an annual Allied A West tour- nament Which was held this year at Lynchburg College. From this group players are chosen, on the basis of indi- Hockey Manager, Carol Compton, hauls out the half-time oranges. Lett to R ' DeBcE:, L.

BASKETBALL Bridgewater's Eagles, coached by Danny Geiser, closed out their '53-'54 court campaign with a surprising record of twelve victories and eleven defeats. Picked by most to have a mediocre season, the Eagle quintet proved Co Captains Dovel and Wampler get first hand informa- tion from Coach Geiser. to be quite a darkhorse, as they captured third place in the Little Seven and a Mason-Dixon Tournament bid. The Eagles got of-f to a slow start at the be- ginning of the campaign, dropping their first three contests, but they soon found the range and began turning bad breaks into good ones. Height played a big factor with the '54 squad, and the lack of it ruined BC's chances of a bet- ter record, as was shown especially in the Roanoke and Shepherd games. The most cherished win for Bridgewater was its 67-65 upset of arch-rival Hampden-Sidney, whom the Eagles hadn't beaten in several years. By virtue of that much wanted win, the Crimson ci Gold clinched third place in the Little Seven and sent the Tigers reeling into a tie for fifth. ln other Little Seven contests, BC dropped two games to champion Roanoke and one to Hampden-Sidney, while they trounced B. P. l., Lynchburg, and Randolph-Macon twice each. Mason-Dixon play in 1954 proved to be very tightly contested, as is shown by some of the scores.

There can be no doubt as to which game was the most spectacular land oddl. Although BC did not win the contest, that 131-l l6 duel with Baltimore U. here on lanuary 9 provided local spectators with something they may never see again. The 247 points scored set a new national record tor points tallied in one game, a mark later broken when Baltimore downed Catholic U. 146-l2l. At halftime the Eagle five went oft the floor trailing by 75-55, but rallied in the second halt to cut the Bees' margin to l5 points.

Con- centrated practice sessions began in Novem- ber and in December the girls embarked on an ll game campaign. In the course of the season the locals took 2 victories from Lynch- burg, 2 from Roanoke, and single victories from William 6: Mary, Elizabethtown, and the Alumni. Then riding on a two season win streak of 15 games, a smooth and powerfully-manned aggregation from Longwood upset the locals by a slim 4 point margin in a high scoring thriller. Despite the Eaglettes loss, the game was probably one of the best girls' games wit- nessed at B. C. After the setback, the Eaglettes bounced back to take 3 decisive victories against BPI, Madison, and Davis ci Elkins to close out the season. D. Craun. The Eaglettes base their season's success on teamwork and smart ball handling. During the season the girls amassed an impressive 531 points, while their opponents were lim- ited to 327 tallies. Reasons for this scoring spread cannot be credited to an individual player, as it took cooperation from both the offensive and defensive units. In the starting line up at the guard posts were sophomores lane I-leishman and Emmie Bondurant and junior Lauree Hersch. Iane's uncanny ability to anticipate plays and Em- mie's keen ball-hawking combined with Lau- ree's ability to control the backboards made the trio an unbeatable combination. Two sophomores, Louise Gwen and Dolo- res Heatwole, and freshman Peggy Cupp forti- fied the sextette in the forward positions. Louise was the sparkplug and play-maker of the shooting machine. She netted 204 points 98 tor her season's shooting performance giving her a neat l9 point per game average. Dolores was the set-shot and rebound artist ot the group while Peggy held down her post as pivot man. SEASONS TOTALS Bridgewater 46' Lynchburg . Bridgewater Boanoke . Bridgewater Alumni .

This same team recovered from a se- vere trouncing in the Little Six in- door Championship and came Within a single slot of copping the indoor title, as they claimed undis- puted possession of second place. The outstanding member of the 1953 spring Track squad was last season's ace-sprinter, Wayne Spangler. ln the Little Six tourney, Wayne again equalled his per- formance of 1952 as he catpured first places in both the 100 and 220 yard dashes. Wayne turned in fast speeds in both events when he whizzed through the 100 yard dash at a 9.8 clip, and in the 220 he ex- celled by setting a 21.51 second pace. To these victories he added the Mason-Dixon 100 title and then journeyed on to win both dashes in the State AAU meet. With these laurels added to his Crown he clinched his claim to the title, fast- est man in Virginia. TOP: Sprinters, First Row: D. Coffin, M. Ma- son, W. Spangler, B. Miller.

Doc lopson, the magician of Little Seven track and cross-country, transformed a group of four freshmen, three sophomores, and only one senior into another Mason- Dixon and Little Seven power. The Eagles came within a breath of annexing both titles, but an injury to one of the top runners put the coveted prizes just out of reach. Only three lettermen were on hand when practice be- gan. Only senior Chester Bowman and Sophs Rod Layman and Dick Obenshain remained from the Little Six and Mason-Dixon Champs of 1952. Gone were Paul Kline, I. Cunningham wins one against Lynchburg. H. Caricofe, Herschel Pike, Paige Will, and Dave Bowman. Doug Miller, anoth.er soph, strengthened Doc's charges with his tremendous improvement over the previous sea- son as a I. V. The lifesaver for the Eagles, however, was the bumper crop of freshmen runners, Roy Cunningham, Dorsey Clayton, lim Lohr, and lim Beahm were the year- lings who strengthened the 1953 harriers. The Eagles defeated W QS L, 27-35 with Rod Layman's third place leading the pack, to open the season, then placed an unspectacular fourth in the Virginia AAU be- hind Quantico Marines, V.M.I., and Roanoke. The next week Roy Cunningham led the harriers to a 26-31 con- quest at Lynchburg, running a close second to the Hor- net's Gillespie. ln a driving snowstorm the following week Doug Miller led the well balanced squad to a decisive 22-39 victory over Catholic University. Then in the Little Seven Meet hard luck struck. Rod Layman, hard running letter man, fractured a bone in his leg and though he finished the race, his injury coupled with a strong Roanoke Aggregation spelled a one point, 37-38, loss. Dick Obenshain led the Eagles across in fifth place. Thus by one point the Eagles gave up the crown they had held for three straight years. Coach Doc Iopson's crowning feat of the year came in Washington when his inexperienced and undermanned squad came within two points of the Mason-Dixon title. Running inspired races the sturdy Eagles showed their amazing depth. Roy Cunningham finished l4th, Doug Mil- ler 15th, Dorsey Clayton 17th, Capt. Chester Bowman and Dick Obenshain tied for l8th, and Iini Beahrn and lim Lohr in 20th. Though they lost to Iohn Hopkins 81-83 they finally finished ahead of their dread rivals, Roanoke. Though the Eagle harriers. of 1953 missed narrowly two championships they were a sure success and showed glimpses of some prosperous years ahead for Doc Iopson. 10-2 . .gl ttf- ... whi- TENNIS T Coach Rudolph Glick's tennis team became the second team in l953 to set a record in the won-lost column for Bridgewater. Glick's netters won four matches while dropping seven ,encounters to be the first Eagle net team to score more than three wins during a regular season. Highlight of the season was an upset victory over Randolph-Macon by the Score of 5-4, making the team the first to turn back a net crew from Randolph- Macon since 1941. Another standout performance was the 5-4 and 4-3 wins chalked up over the Lynchburg Hornets. This was the first time in at least five years that Bridgewater has been able to defeat a team from Lynchburg. The other lone victory came at the expense of Towson State Teachers College by a score of 5-4. The seven setbacks handed the Eagles were by Hampden-Sydney twice, Ran- dolph-Macon, Baltimore Loyola, Towson, American University, and Catholic Uni- versity. Freshman Bob Charlton and Sophomore Squeaks Trail led the team with 9-2 and 7-4 records respectively. Charlton played number four and Trail three. Dennis Cummings KNO. 51, and Otis Kitchen KNO. 2D followed with four and seven totals. Bennett Miller with a l-9, Iohn Spud Boitnott at O-ll, and Don Border with a O-l record rounded out the scoring. Only Boitnott, who played the top position and Kitchen will be lost to the Eagles. Kitchen winds up for a back hand smash. First Row: M. Trail, I. Boitnott, O. Kitchen, D. Cumm Grist, B. Miller, D.

ASEBALL The 1953 Eagle baseball team under the direction of Coach Danny Geiser had a season's record of 8 wins and 7 losses. The team was third in the Little Six standings and third in the Southern Division of the Mason-Dixon Conference. The Eagl.es had great potentialities, but never seemed to be able to play consistently for many games in a row. The hitting was above par, but the fielding was very er- ratic at times, while being very good at others. The lead- ing hitt.er on the team was Don Mitchell, a junior, who opened the season as a reserve, but soon moved into the opening lineup and finished the season with a batting average of .407. Charlie Kurtz was s.econd in the hitting department with an average of .329, and he was followed closely by Bobby Thomas with an average of .327. The averages of the other team regulars in order were: Bill Dovel .2647 Dale Flora .2335 Iohn Vance .l89: Ray Shull .1877 and lim Utterback .l45. ln a limited number of ap- pearances Curt Wall hit .25O, Bob May .238, Bob Will .2l9, Fred Pence .200, lim Echard .l42, and Lee Eckarct .lO4. The defensive standouts on the team were Catcher Charlie Kurtz, iniielder Bob Thomas, infielcler-outfielder Dale Flora, and outfielder-pitcher Iohnny Vance. The pitching was on the whole good, but a top-flight hurler of the caliber of last year's all-stater Billy Burk- holder was greatly missed. Bobby Will led the pitchers with a record of 3 wins and one loss. While Bobby May had a record of 2 wins and 3 losses, he contributed the best pitched game of the season, a 2 hit shutout over Roanoke College, Iohn Vance had the second best won- lost average with a record of 3 wins and 3 losses. John Vance and lim Utterback, both seniors and out- standing play.ers on the Eagleiteam for the past 3 years, served as Co-captains for the 1953 season. The Eagles opened the season with a 14-ll victory over the U. Akron, combining ll hits and 14 bases on balls for a triumph in the fre,e scoring affair. Charlie Kurtz and Bobby Thomas led the attack with 3 and 4 hits, respective- ly. Other highlights of the season were two victories over Shepherd College by 7-2 and 5-3 scores, a 16-O drubbing of Roanoke College, a 7-1 victory over Catholic U., a thrilling, 13 inning 6-5 victory over Lynchburg College, and a heartbreaking 8-7 last inning loss to Hampden-Syd ney. At Roanoke, Bob May pitched a beautiful 2 hitt.er strik- ing out 10 men, while Kurtz collected 3 hits and Shull, Flora and Mitchell each gathered 2. In the Lynchburg game, the Eagles were ragged in the field at the game, but eventually won in the bottom of the 13th inning by breaking the 5-5 deadlock on a single by Utterback, a sacrifice by Flora and another base hit by Mitchell, his fourth of the day.

Shull, Thomas and Flora also collected 2 hits each for Bridgewater. The Eagles lost a 8-7 heartbreaker to Hampden-Sydney on Riverside Field, as the Tigers scored 2 runs in the top of the 9th on Z base hits and 2 Bridgewater errors. While the team's record was not outstanding, it was very good considering the lack of depth on the team and the heavy losses from the 1952 squad. Our recognition should be given to those men such as Bud Bowman, lim Echard, Bobby Phillips and Doug Miller, who saw little action but who are being counted on in the future. With all but two of last year's team on hand for another sea- son and several heralded freshmen on campus, the Eagles antici- pate a very successful season in 1954.

After their initial undefeated tennis season in 1952, the girls squad repeated with a perfect performance last year, The seven Wins posted by the Eaglettes in 1953 makes it twelve in a row for the girls since ten- nis Was introduced. Intercollegiate tennis was introduced in l952 into the women's athletic agenda in the form of an indi- vidual sport, the purpose of which was to provide leisure time r.ecreation and enjoyment after college graduation. Last August the success of such a plan was proved when Helen Wine, who graduated in Iune, won the singles court tourney at Staunton. A Iunior, loann Kline, team.ed with freshman, Lavonne lkenberry, to take the doubles honors in the same tournament. The highlight of the '53 net season was the 3-2 set- back which the locals handed the strong and mighty William and Mary quintet. The Eaglettes also handed RPI of Richmond a 4-2 pasting on the same road trip. Reviewing the successful squad position-wise, we find Helen Wine playing number one and Barbara Kelly and Carolyn lkenberry alternating at positions 2 and 3 in singles. At the doubles posts were lanice Miller and Ioann Kline, Louise Owen and Linda Diehl, and Dolores I-leatwole and Betty Halterman. l IQQS IUTH is A ESM Suber' team llon - IlYTRAML'RALS 1 Apart from the varsity athletic program at Bridgewater an extensive intramural curricu- lum is also provided. The mens' program is supervised by Coach Crunston and student di- rector Curtis Wall. ln the boys' system an eight team set-up was devised which included the following sports: football, tennis, badminton, basketball and table tennis. The girls' program, on the other hand, is su- pervised by the Women's Athletic Associa- tion and it is under the direction of Coach Tandy, the Women's Physical Education Di- rector. This year the girls' intramurals included table tennis, basketball, volleyball, badmin- ton, tennis, and softball. A dual sports program was initiated this year when co-recreational intramurals were introduced in table tennis. lt is hoped that this co-recreational idea will stimulate more inter- est in intramurals. The intramural program at Bridgewater is an important portion of the Athletics Depart- ment for it provides opportunities which will suit many varied tastes. Through intramurals the physical education department attempts to achieve the ideal - lUO per cent student participation. 107 I 7 4 A , ,,, - U ,-V - . 5 - , - - l, f.. .3 ,- A, , 41- : 3,3 ., ..-il, .V h. , .
