MORGAN HALL DReeROBERTIEEE MceLEOD, JR. I feel greatly indebted to this year’s student body for the warm, genial, sincere welcome given me as I enter upon my first year as President. Your expression of friendship has made me quickly feel at home. Your fine spirit of loyalty and cooperation will continue to serve me as an inspiration. Your response has made me happy and grateful for the privilege of serving you, Old Centre, and the Kingdom of God. Our hopes and expectations for Centre rise to greater heights as these graduates go forth in their fine representation of Centre’s products— namely, culture, refinement, scholarship, and Christian service. May our pride, our gratitude, and our interest as college and students be mutual. Rosert L. McLeop, Jr. 1 i9 ] THE DEANS James Howeiit Hew etr A.M., PH.D.

SENIORS It’s a high and hard-earned honor, To attain the Senior’s name; It’s the height of college glory, Things can never be the same. The Senior has profs figured out, Frosh do his manual tasks, He has his love to keep him warm— What more could a feller ask? They possess sophistication, So the age-old adage goes, But it’s just another saying In as far as Centre knows. It’s the year that students study If they want to go on through, For by now profs have their number And there’s nothing else to do. The Senior year is really fine, By far the best one yet; Two terms of work and pleasure That a person can’t forget. —C. 36) CLASS OFFICERS MEN’s DEPARTMENT WILLIAM McEvoy President ALLAN RANKIN Vice-President WHARTON ALLEN Secretary Lewis HArpy Treasurer WoMeEN’s DEPARTMENT SusIE Norris President ALICE CENTER Vice-President DorotHy McGraw Secretary VIRGINIA BRANDENBURG Treasurer KATHLEEN AGNES ALEXANDER PLAINVIEW, TEXAS Transfer from Texas College for Women; Y.

JUNIORS The Juniors stand a bit above The Sophomore’s lowly pranks, And yet their worldly cares are less Than in the Senior ranks. They’re the backbone of the campus, They help make the college run. Tho’ they have an eye for business, Still they’re always out for fun. Midnight; nay, long after, Seldom sees them gone to bed; Still they’re always hale and hearty Just so long as they are fed. They have learned the art of living; They can court full half the night, And start the day with eight o’clocks And say the world’s all right. It’s the year when latent scholars Learn to sleep with open eyes, And learn to guess correctly To the teacher’s when’s and why’s. —C. G.

HEAD COACH QUINN DECKER Of the coaching staff of the 1938 Prayin’ Col- onels, too much praise cannot be given. Faced with the Herculean task of turning out, in one short seasecn, a team which must equal the reccrd compiled by that of Ed Kubale, for ten years mentor of the Colonels, in 1937, Coaches Decker and Weaver set about their task with a deter- mination that won the admiration of all who saw them in action and preceeded to place on the [58] field of battle one of the most aggressive elevens in the long history of Centre College. These two men have done great things for Centre. Their work promises even greater things. We have seen them in action and we know that they will cnce again place the name of Centre College high in the field of college athletics. To you, Quinn Decker, and to you, DeWitt Weaver, we pay tribute. ; ON THE GRIDIRON When the 1938 gridiron season rolled around, no one knew just what to expect of the Praying Colonels of Old Centre. Working steadily from March 1, when he became athletic director, Coach Decker and Line Coach Weaver finally assembled an organization which they deemed worthy of Old Centre’s name. And they went through the most successful season for any Centre team since 1924. The records showed seven victories for the squad against but two defeats. A game by game account of the season follows: Centre, 13; Mississippi, 0 With 3,0co rabid fans on hand to see the first edi- tion of Quinn Decker’s Centre Colonels, the Gold and White played only straight, hard-driving football to deteat the invading Mississippi Choctaws by a 13-0 tally. Led by two senior backs, Dick Stahl and Billy Harrington, the Deckermen scored first in the second period and added their final six points in the third canto. ‘The invaders were never within 20 yards of the Colonel goal line. After the first quarter had ended with neither eleven threatening, the Colonels took advantage of a Mississippi fumble early in the second period to score the first Centre touchdown. Barney Searcy, one of the iron men at tackle, recovered Jones’ fumble on the Gold and White 37. Van Huss promptly picked up 12 yards on a reverse to the 49. On the next play, the ball was snapped to Stahl, who handed it to Har- rington as the Louisville lad slashed across left guard, and Billy evaded two of the secondary, stiff armed a third, and galloped 51 yards for the touchdown. Stahl booted a perfect placement and the Colonels led by 7-0. In the third period, after Armstrong had punted out on the Centre 34, the Colonels began a drive which netted their second tally. Five plays netted two first downs and placed the ball on the Mississippi 25. Stahl then swung wide around his left end, saw he was going to be tackled and suddenly reversed his field, picked up four interferers and scooted around the right wing for 25 yards and the last six Centre points. His at- tempted placement struck the crossbar and bounded back into the playing field. Centre, 49; Transylvania, 0 With two victories already under their belt, the undefeated Centre Colonels sent a hard fighting Tran- sylvania elen down to defeat by a 49-0 tally. The Deckermen, who scored once in the first period, added two more touchdowns in the second canto, slipped a bit in the third when they only tallied once, and burst forth in the final period to count thrice more. [59 ] MR. DeWITT WEAVER Line Coach MR. FRED ARNICAR Freshman Coach LEO GRUSZKOWSKI Captain DENIS VAN HUSS Alternate Captain ON beink = In the initial period, Jimmy German took Murphy’s punt on his own 33 and with beau- tiful interference sped 67 yards for a touch- down. In the second period, Bobby Steakley, the tiny speed merchant, reeled off 28 yards around end for a second 6 points, and Ger- man shot a 20-yard pass to Lorentsen, who took the ball on the 6 and stepped over for the touchdown, making the score 21-0 at the half. After Stahl had crossed the last white line in the third canto on a quarterback sneak, CUR | DaIsRS@aiN which increased the Gold and White lead to 28-0, the game became a rout. In the final period, with every man on the squad seeing action, Mike Brown, Billy Yates, and Billy Harrington each added 6 points to the rap- idly growing Centre tally and the final score was 49-0. The feature of the tilt was the perfect con- versions of Stahl and Van Huss after all seven Stahl added six extra points and Van Huss the other. Centre touchdowns. O)} IND = Winks Centre, 16; Chattanooga, 7 Once again the Gold and White waved in triumph as the Colonels took a favored Chat- tanooga University eleven by surprise and re- venged themselves for the scoreless tie of last season by scoring a 16-7 victory for their sec- ond win of the season. The Deckermen, with Jimmy German and Dick Stahl taking care of all the scoring, tallied once in the first period, held this margin until the fourth canto, and then added nine more points on Stahl’s field goal and touchdown before the Moccasins could take advantage of a frenzied aerial at- tack to save themselves the humiliation of a shut-out. In the first period German brought the 4,000 fans to their feet with a wild roar when he grabbed a Chattanooga punt on his own nine and, aided by perfect blocking, raced 91 yards down the sideline for the touchdown without a hand being laid on him. Stahl booted the extra point and the Moccasions trailed by 7-0. From then on the game became a defensive battle, with neither team making great in- roads on the other’s territory, until a fourth period drive by the Deckermen gave them a first down on the 9. “Three tries at the line lost 10 yards and on fourth down Stahl E [2 ff iD) || i IN [61 ] dropped back and booted a perfect 27-yard field goal. Before the crowd had _ scarcely settled back in their seats, Searcy’s diving tackle forced Mardo to fumble on his own 23 and the big lineman recovered. Again three tries at the line were of no avail, but on last down Stahl slid off left tackle, reversed his field, slipped between the sleeping Chattanooga secondary and blasted his way for 23 yards and the final Centre score. “The same lad booted the extra point to make the score 16-0. The lone Moccasin touchdown came when, with but a minute to play, Orend heaved a 30-yard pass to Barbee, who caught the ball on the 3 and stepped over for the extra point. The same lad converted as the gun sounded and the final score was 16-7. Villanova, 35; Centre, 6 After taking three victories in their first starts of the season, the Colonels made the long journey to Philadelphia, where they met their first defeat at the hands of the powerful Villanova Wildcats by the score of 35-6. The men of Centre, who kept the thousands in Shibe Park in a continual uproar by virtue of their surprising defense against the threats of the Cats, finally succumbed to the power of the three elevens used by Clipper Smith and ON litle allowed them to score 22 points in the last half, after the Deckermen had held the mar- gin to 13-6 at the end of the first two periods. Villanova struck in the initial period. After a determined drive had driven the Gold and White far back into its own territory, Nick Basca, so phomore halfback who com- bined with All-American John Wysocki to lead the assault against Centre, faded bac and shot a short pass over the center of the line, where Wysocki grabbed it on the 20 and raced the remaining distance for the tally. Basca booted a perfect placement and_ the Green led by 7-0. Centre trailed by this margin until the final three minutes of the second period. Then, in one wild play, the Colonels placed themselves in a scoring position, and promptly crossed the last white line on the next. With the ball on the Centre 45, Stahl whipped a pass to Smith, who took it out of the air on the Wildcat 40 and sped to the 35. “here, when he saw the Villanova secondary closing in on him, he lateraled the pigskin to Lorantsen, who shook himself loose and galloped to the 23, where he in turn tossed the ball backward to German, and the lanky quarterback fought his way to the 3 before three of the Villanova linemen pulled him down from behind. On the next play, as the wildly-cheering crowd GRIDIRON watched in amazement, Stahl took Hale’s pass, swung wide toward right end, suddenly stopped, and shot a pass to Smith, who took the ball in the end zone for a touchdown. Stahl’s kick was wide, and the score was 7-6. With but a minute remaining, Wysocki took a beautiful 65-yard pass from Basca over his shoulder on the 10 and stepped over for the second Villanova touchdown. In the few re- maining seconds in the half, the Deckermen once more brought the crowd to its feet when they advanced to the Villanova 21-yard line in three plays, but the gun sounded before they could score again. The second half was all Villanova. Yet, despite the rising score, despite the fact that they battled against every man on the Villa- nova squad, the Colonels never ceased fighting. The many who saw German running on legs that could scarcely bear him up and still man- aging to gain more ground than any other back on the field, those who watched Coop still making every other tackle after playing every second of the game, who saw Captain Gruszkowski playing his heart out for Old Centre, spoke in glowing terms of the team from the bluegrass of Kentucky which dis- played more courage, played cleaner football, and showed more undying spirit than any they ever hoped to see in action. Ce Re BRE Rk Ake RoE TL Se SY 2 RM Pee es as ee ee ON Parr de Centre, 26; Presbyterian, 7 Revenging themselves for the 35-6 clawing at the hands of Villanova, the Colonels brought to a glorious end their 1938 home schedule by trouncing Presbyterian College, 26-7. Before the Homecoming assemblage had had a chance to get settled in their seats, the Col- onels had scored a touchdown. On the first play after the kickoff, Van Huss smashed over left guard for a first down, and before the blue clad warriors could collect their scat- tered wits, the same lad spun through left guard, cut back, and galloped 37 yards to the I1-yard line. German then swung wide around right end, cut back through tackle, and crossed the goal line without a hand _ being laid on him. Van Huss failed to convert. Later in the first quarter, Fullback Smith brought an abrupt end to a Presbyterian threat when he made a one-hand interception of a pass on the Centre 17 and raced 83 yards up the sideline for the second Centre touchdown. Stahl added the point as the quarter ended. The third of a quartet of Gold and White tallies came as the result of a 78-yard drive midway in the second period. After a pass from German to Tenikat had been completed to the 47 for a 29-yard gain, Harrington split ALLAN RANKIN OR ROR i CRORE BLM ll ap tdk S$ ot ial .s 4 ek Re SRIDIR ON the Blue line for 28 yards and a first down on the 19, and then reeled off 10 more to the g. Van Huss added 2 more, and Harrington then smashed off tackle for the 6 points. Van Huss. added the extra 6 points. The final Centre tally was made by Ger- man, after the stalwart forward wall of the Colonels had forced Presbyterian back to its 21. The lone tally of the invaders came after Coleman had galloped to the 2-yard line with a completed pass. Coleman went over for the score on the next play and then booted the point as the gun sounded. Manager [ 63] ON Weipa ie Washington, 20; Centre, 7 Striking swiftly three times before the Centre Colonels could set themselves for the attack, the Washington University Bears ran up a 20-0 margin at the end of the first half, and then managed to stave off a determined but futile Centre assault the remainder of the test, the final score being 20-7, and the defeat being the second for the Deckermen. ‘The Bears blocked a Gold and White pur.t late in the first period and tallied once to lead 6-0, marched 81 yards for their second touch- down early in the second canto, and added their final 6 points on a long forward pass a few plays later. The lone Centre tally was made on a pass from German to Smith in the third period. “Twice, however, the Deck- ermen had touchdowns called back because of penalties. After Stahl’s blocked punt had been recov- ered on the 11, Yore, in four plays, plunged over for the touchdown. Dee’s conversion failed, and the score was 6-0, In the second period, Hayes leaped high in the air to take Yore’s pass on the 16 and once again place the Bears in scoring territory. Ferficky slid off tackle for 8 yards to the 8, CG Rl DeiRReOeis and Warner moved the pigskin to the 4 with a smash over guard. Yore then scored for the second time with a smash through the center of the Gold and White forward wall. ‘Tracy added the extra point and the Colonels trailed by 13-0. Ten plays later, Ferfecky, standing on his own 47, shot a long pass to Warner, who took the ball on the run on the 11 and crossed the goal line unmolested. Dee converted to make the score 20-0 at the end of the halt. The lone Centre touchdown came in the third period, when German whipped a pass over the middle to Smith, who took the pig- skin over his shoulder on the 24 and out- sprinted the Wa-hington secondary for the score. Van Huss added the extra point. The quarter and the game ended without further scoring, although the Centre eleven crossed the enemy goal line once again in the fourth period only to have the ball brought back because of a clipping penalty. German easily was the star of the game, for in addition to calling his usual consistent game, he passed for the only Centre touch- down, ran back one kickoff 61 yards and a punt 54 yards, and averaged 4 yards every time he carried the ball from scrimmage. ON T Jnl le Centre, 7; W. and L., 0 Finally making good a last minute drive after four other similar threats had been re- pulsed by the powerful Washington and Lee Generals, the courageous gridders of Old Centre marked up their fifth victory of the season by trouncing the Generals to the tune of 7-0. Battling until the final minute of play without a score, with every Centre rooter praying throughout the first half that the Gen- erals would not cross the Gold and White goal line, and then almost going mad with joy in the second half when the Deckermen advanced to the 10, to the 6, and to the 3, only to sink back into their seats with a groan of anguish when the Generals turned back the Colonel threats, the Deckermen finally took advantage of a 30-yard runback of an inter- cepted pass and two smashes at the line to count the one touchdown. In the first half, the Colonels were able to do almost nothing with the unorthodox five- man line of W. and L., and the Generals took advantage of the bogging down of the Centre attack to penetrate into Gold and White territory six times in the first half. However, the famed General passing attack was stopped completely by the alert Colonel secondary, and the blue-clad eleven was able to advance only as far as the 16-yard Centre line. GRIDIRON The Deckermen, after being literally pushed all over the field in the first half, came back fighting in the second half and unleashed the running attack which had won them four vic- [65] tories in six games. Early in the third period a long drive, culminated by Andy Lorentsen’s lugging the pigskin to the 11-yard line on an end around. ‘Then, with the Colonels mov- ing forward rapidly and a score almost cer- tain, the powerful General line stiffened and threw the Gold and White backs for a net loss of one yard in three plays. German, on last down, called for a field goal, with Van Huss booting the pigskin, and the kick was wide—the first Centre threat had: been re- pulsed. Iwice more in the fourth period Centre drives were broken up. With only a few minutes to play, the Gen- erals took to the air with a frenzied pass attack. “The first attempt, aimed at Howard Dobbins, was incomplete, and the second was intercepted by Stahl on the 43 and run back to the 25, where he lateraled to German and turned to block the on-rushing Generals. Ger- man sprinted to the 10, where the frantic W. and L. forward wall caught him from behind and forced him out of bounds. Stahl quickly moved the ball to the 6 on a quarterback sneak, and German then hurtled through tackle for 6 yards and the game-winning touchdown. Stahl added the extra point, mak- ing the final score 7-0. ON THE GRIDIRON Centre, 26; Ohio Wesleyan, 0 Led by the quartet of seniors in the Gold and White backfield, the Centre Colonels added one more victory to their growing string of wins when they invaded Delaware, Ohio, and came away with a 26-0 triumph over the Battling Bishops of Ohio Wesleyan University. With Van Huss scoring two of the Centre touchdowns, and Harrington and German crossing the Wesleyan goal line once each, the Deckermen gained almost at will and after being held to a 7-0 margin at the end of the half, rolled up a 26-0 lead before Coach Decker substituted his second and third elevens. Although the score failed to reveal it, the lads from Kentucky had things much their own way throughout the test, rolling up a gain of 300 yards from scrimmage to a mere 70 for the host club, and piling up a total of 11 first downs. Centre, 14; U. of Louisville, 0 Weary from the strain of eight hard games and three successive road trips, the Centre eleven still managed to muster up enough spirit to trounce a highly-keyed University of Louisville squad by 14-0 and write a finis to one of the most successful seasons in the long history of the Danville school. Playing for the first time on a muddy field, the Colonels were never able to shake loose the shifty backs who had been responsible for the majority of the Gold and White tallies, and were finally forced to count their two touchdowns on a sustained drive in the second period and a 54-yard runback of an intercepted pass in the third canto. The Colonels scored first when German swung wide around left end for 16 yards; Stahl converted. And Bill Hale was responsible for the second when he intercepted a Cardinal pass and galloped 54 yards. In spite of the fact that they failed to equal the unde- feated record of the 1937 Lieutenants, the 1938 yearling squad gave promise of sending forth from its ranks some of the most polished performers to wear the Gold and White in recent years. Of the tw enty-odd boys who graced the roster of the squad at the end of the playing season, only two found the way too hard, and with spring practice only a few days off, the prospects of an even more successful varsity season next season than was had last was made possible by the performance of the 1938 Looies. Coached by Fred “Lefty” Arnicar, Centre star of former days, the Looies opened their season by dropping a bitterly fought battle to a heavy, powerful University of Tennessee yearling eleven. Following the Tennessee battle, the Looies evened up their record by scoring a decisive 19-0 triumph over the Maroons of Easte rn State Teachers College, which team the 37 squad defeated only by 6-o. On October 29th, playing before the student body for the first time and in the absence of their coach, the Looies went down into defeat for the second time when the University of Cincinnati eked out a 7-6 decision. Then, after a three week’s layoff, the Centre frosh re- turned to the wars to face the Cardinals of the University cf Louisville and returned in bitter shame when the hitherto hapless Birds held them to a scoreless tie. Of the more promising men on the squad, Jack Tinsley, Hank Skovron, Don Judd, and Jimmy Lee stand out in the forward wall and Dick Staten, Stanley Czekala, Jimmy Buck, and Jasper Thompson lead the backfield candidates.

Led by Paul Coop, who tipped in 16 points from his position at center, the Deckermen grabbed an early lead and were never headed. ‘The perform- ance of the Gold and White quint indicated that it might upset the record books and develop into a pow- erful scoring machine, but such was not to happen. Two nights later, a vainly fighting Union five went down to a 37-35 defeat at the hands of the smoothly functioning Colonels, the victory placing the Decker- men at the top of the K.-J..A. C. Conference. For the second consecutive game Paul Coop paced his mates in scoring, dropping in 14 points for a two-game total of 30. Returning to Danville for their initial encounter on the home floor, the high-flying Colcnels allowed them- selves to be taken by surprise by the Mountaineers of Berea and dropped a 49-42 decision. After grabbing an early lead and then holding the Berea margin to one peint at the half, the Gold and White netters suddenly weakened and permitted the blue-clad in- vaders to spurt ahead with a wild burst of scoring. The loss was the first for the Deckermen. The fourth tilt was also disastrous to the Centre squad, for a visiting Morehead unleashed all its power and managed to pull a closely fought 44-41 decision out of the fire. Although the Colonels led by two points at the half and never trailed more than three points in the second half, they were never able to connect for the necessary four points which would have given them a victory. The deadly shooting of John Kirk, Morehead forward, which accounted for six points in the final two minutes of play, was directly responsible for the Centre loss. Two nights later the rapidly fading Colonels gave their worst performance when they lost to a veteran Georgetown quint by the score of 50-25. ‘Trailing by ten points in the first five minutes cf play, the Gold and White five was never able to come close to the spurting Tigers. The Georgetown loss was the third against two victories for Quinn Decker’s charges. After a week’s layoff because of mid-semester ex- aminations, the Colonels return ed to their early season SEASON form with a smashing 46-40. victory over Kentucky Wesleyan. With Andy Lorentsen, the mainstay of the five, finally hitting his stride and scoring 19 pcints, the Colonels shot in front early in the game and led all the way. Still displaying the brilliant shooting which had netted him 19 peints the night before, Andy Lorentsen dropped in 21 points to lead his mates to a 47-33 upset over the Pioneers of Transylvania College. The Colonels, held as the underdogs in the Pioneer battle, once again revealed the sparkling play which had earned them victories in the first two games of the season and once again moved past the .500 mark in the won and lost column when they marked up their fourth victory in seven games. Following their two victories, the Colonels took to the road and opened a three-game journey by dropping their second test to Morehead, this time by the score ef 37-28. Hurt by a sudden reversal of form, the Deckermen played steady, consistent basketball for 32 minutes, but faded badly in the latter part of the game and allowed the Eagles to pull away easily. The second of the three tilts away from home resulted in another loss, with Kentucky Wesleyan turning on with all their power and walking away with a 51-30 ‘victory. The Colonels, who triumphed over the Wes- leyan five in their first meeting, had completely lost their shooting eye and the hosts soon had run up an unsurmountable lead. The loss was the fifth for Centre in nine games. Winding up their disastrous foreign invasion with their secend meeting with Georgetown, the Colonels suffered the league-leading Tigers to mark up a second victory, this time by a 41-25 score. The ‘Tigers, although hurt deeply by the loss of their mainstay, Tris Bridges, were still able to claw the Colonel f ive at will and tally their eight straight conference win. With three battles still to be played, the Centre record shows four victories against six losses. The remaining tilts are those with Transy, the second meet- ing, and with Eastern, both games still unplayed. In the Kentucky Intercollegiate Athletic Conference tour- ney, the Deckermen were paired with Morehead, whom they had twice been defeated by. | HUTCHINSON MAY MAYS SCHULTZ YATES FRESHMAN BASKETBALL The 1939 Centre Lieutenants, after beginning their season in the same fashion as did the hapless yearling fives of the past two seasons, suddenly showed a complete reversal of form and shattered all freshman traditions when they rolled up six con- secutive victories and, on the night of this writing, were on their way toward a seventh conquest. Coached by Dewitt Weaver, the small Looie squad grimly drilled until it finally began to function smoothly, and then startled the Centre followers by scoring two victories more than had been scored by any freshman five since 1934. +k After they had dropped decisions to Lindsay-Wilson, Camp- bellsville, and the Berea frosh, the yearlings did a complete about face and began their victory march, which saw the Beta Theta Pi five, Georgetown, Wesleyan, Transy, Wesleyan again, and Georgetown also a second time defeated. Three games remain to be played, those being the second test with the Transylvania frosh and the two with the powerful Eastern five. Those whose play gave promise of strengthening the varsity five next season are Jimmy Buck, aggressive guard and the squad’s high scorer, Jap Thompson, lanky forward, Clark Antle, Thompson’s red-headed teammate, and Don Judd, giant center who should develop into a valuable netter. [ 70 ] OOM AMO Ce eS With a number of new golfers coming out to add to the strength of: Clayton Anderson, Lawrence Baxter, and Beverly Chatham, members of last year’s team, prospects for Centre’s golf team are bright. Among the luminaries are Shel Anderson and Al Wathan. BeAwsre BYAGIS eam oe sents emace Baseball is being reorganized at Centre this year by Coach Quin Decker. A schedule of six games, two with the University of Cincinnati, two with the University of Louisville, and two with the Eastern State Teachers College, has been arranged. Practice will start as soon as spring football practice is over. Many candidates are expected to report and battle for starting berths on the first nine. “Iwo prospective pitchers are to be seen in Paul Coop and Dutch Herrick. Others who are expected to report are Van Huss, Hale, Hutchinson, Heaton, Rhudy, Higgins, Jap Thompson, Roger Thompson, German, Selin, Scrovon, Henry, Gordon, Searcy, Brakefield, and Schultz. IBENINUS= 6 «© © e The tennis team this spring is to be chosen by Coach Decker after an intermural tennis match. ‘Those showing ability in this tournament will represent the school on the varsity squad. Probably returning from last year’s team will be Charles Allen, Wharton Allen, and Lawrence Baxter. Several matches are being scheduled with nearby colleges and universities. Les) JIMMY GERMAN | Captain Three track meets have been scheduled for the 1939 season: a dual meet on May I5 with Berea, a triangle meet with Georgetown and Eastern, and the State track meet, which will be held in Danville on May 27. Centre will be especially strong in the middle distances, though probably only fair in the other events. V ARES | ag Hampered by the lateness of spring football and poor weather, the Centre cinder squad scored but one victory in four meets, that being over Georgetown, Eastern, and Louisville in the first meet of the season. Although possessed with fine material, the Colonels were unable to round into perfect shape and were worn from the closeness of the meets and the epidemic of injuries which overtook the squad in the last few weeks of the season. In the opening engagement, the Centre squad played host to Georgetown, Eastern, and Louis- ville and promptly ran away with the meet. Tak- ing every dash event and both relays, the Gold and White harriers leaped into a lead and were always in front. Especially gratifying was the performance of Jimmy German, captain of the squad, Bobby Steakley, and Gene Zaleski, the three dash men, who accounted for first and sec- ond positions in both the 100 and the 220-yard dashes. On May 9, the always menacing Berea squad journeyed to Danville and walked away with a close 69-66 victory. The Mountaineers, always feared for their never failing strength in the dis- tance events, managed to secure their slight victory margin when they took all three places in the mile, and two out of three in both the quarter mile and the half mile events. In the dashes, however, the trio of Centre sprinters once again PAUL COOP le tRe Ava Co K proved to be the main point getters for the Gold and White. The following week saw the Deckermen jour- ney to Nashville, where they succumbed to Van- derbilt by the score of 63 to 25. Wearied from the long trip, the Colonels weren’t even able to hold their usual supremacy in the dashes and failed miserably in the distance events. The only bright spot was the return to form of Allan Rankin, the one mainstay in the dis- tances, who had been sidelined with a severely sprained ankle. Rankin managed to secure sec- ond place in the 880 and third in the mile. On Monday, May 23, at the State meet, which was run off in a pouring rain, the Deck- ermen gave their worst performance and suf- fered themeslves to be second to the Berea squad, which retained the title it had won in 1937. The Mountaineers ran up a total of 67 points to the 32 compiled by the Colonels. Gene Zaleski, diminutive speedster, kept the Colonels in the running in the early stages of the meet when he was clocked in 10 seconds flat in the 100-yard dash, equalling the state record. The freshman squad, competing in but two meets, finished the season with an even break, winning over Berea in the meet in Danville and finishing third to Berea and Western in the state meet. Promising frosh performers were Leonard Schultz and Bernell Heaton in the distances, Arnold Amundsen in the dashes, and Frank Harsher in the weight division.

The riv- alry which is in existence between the Colonettes and the Gym Dandies is as real and as vital as any gridiron rivalry. In the many sports offered the two teams vie with each other for supremacy. Athletics at K. C. W. is under the direction of Miss Bailey, who during her first year here has proven her ability and versatility. [74] BADMINTON PING PONG SHUFFLEBOARD HOCKEY TENNIS SWIMMING Be | | WOMAN'S ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION Carrying on from last year, the Woman’s Athletic Association organ- ized into the Colonettes and the Gym Dandies, with Betty Jean Biles and Margaret Ware Parrish as their respective captains. Tournaments were held this year in hockey, bowling, ping-pong, bad- minton, swimming, and volley ball. Other activities of the association have been picnic hikes, parties, and tea dances. Perhaps the most important event of the year was the furnishing of the W. A. A. club room with modern maple furniture, rugs, and lamps, making it a most attractive place in which to meet. All the members are looking forward to the spring events. On May Day the entire membership of the W. A. A. will unite in the celebration of the May Day festivities, an old Centre custom. And the annual spring camp will provide an opportunity for everyone to forget school for one perfect week-end. ‘These two occasions, combined with the remainder of the sport program, promise a spring filled with fun and activity for the members of the Woman’s Athletic Association.

All declamation and oratory sponsored by the club is held in the hall in the Main Building. Within the past four years its scope has been widened greatly by the introduction of book reviews and round-table discussions tn its programs. During the past year the organization has been built up and strengthened until now its membership includes several students from each of the four classes in the college. The Society meets regularly every two weeks during the school year. bil4] CHAMBERLAIN LITERARY SOCIETY OFFICERS JAMES COLLINS BLACKWELL BROWN BLACKWELL BROWN JAMES CREAL JAMES DURRETT CARL GINGLES Davip GOIN Houston HEIZER ‘TED JAEGER JACK KEELEY .

These students were James Collins, Blackwell Brown, Jerry Leibman, and Robert Kinnaird. And now, due to their efforts, Chamberlain has regained its posi- tion of eminence on the campus and threatens to surpass its rival organization. The programs of the year, which have included debates by the members, talks, the reading of papers written by the society’s members, round-table discussions, and mock trials, have been of continuous interest to all. {115 ] a ——« IE OLDE.CENTRE rT . {- ; a c . aa In preparing this volume of the OLDE CENTRE for presentation we have endeavored to please you, the students of Centre College.
