Class of 1927 - This volume seems a precious thing now, .ait it will become more and more dear to you as the years flow by, because it is a record of your youth. From time to time you will open it and recall thoughts and words and deeds which were part of your life at College. It will be a picture of your little Misle of the long ago” which in reality grows dimmer and dimmer as you float down the river of time . My wish is that you may be able to retain in all the situations of life the best qualities of your youth in College. Here you were taught by disinterested seekers after the truth. Possibly your professors did not all agree among themselves on all subjects, but their motives were honorable, and they appealed to the natural and spontaneous frankness of young men. I hope that as you become more skilled in practical affairs, more re- sourceful, more powerful, more tactful and more shrewd, you will control the strength of your maturity with an idealism that will remain forever young. Vay a glance now and then at this record of life on an isle of the long ago keep alive a love for truth and a sincere desire to combine with practical success the ideals of the scientist who toils for the good of humanity. President EiUimrb Presidet Mczes was called to the College at precisely the conjuncture to which his special qualities of mind and character were best adapted. It had been the task of Dr. Finley to make over an institution which was becoming fossilized, to inject new life into its hardening arteries, and to fit it for a brilliant future in its new home upon the heights; but at the time of his retirement, the task had become, not so much one of fresh initiatives, as one of the wise and temperate guidance of an evolution already begun. I rise and temperate the guidance of Dr. Mezes assuredly ztfas, and under him the evolution of the College was continuous, logical and steady. The curriculum zi s enlarged by the addition of a course leading to the degree B. S. S., in all departments numerous electives were added, a summer school was instituted, the Evening Session was expanded enormously, and a Division of vocational Subjects was established. From this Division emerged the School of Business, and then, with a parallel development, the Schools of Education and Technology; each proceeding zvith the utmost regularity as a natural growth from something already in existence. Many further details might be adduced, but enough has been here presented to indicate how the progress of the College, allowing all proper credit to indispensable subordinates, has reflected the character- istics of the man at its head and to manifest our debt to the able administrator who has just retired.

Eighty years later, we see this temple far surpassing the then extravagant hopes of the editors of the Herald—we see many illustrious men in every field of endeavor, we see many benefactors of the race in the fields of science, art, politics, of practically everything in which man can contribute to the progress of civilization—men whose most abiding principles were attained at its PROMIXEXT GROUP AT THE DEDICATIOX OF THE NEW BUILOIXGS L. 10 R—E.

Eighty years later, we sec this temple embarking upon a policy of expansion which will triple its present capacity, we see this temple rising far above the fondest hopes of its most optimistic proponents in 1847. On May 7, 1847, the State Legislature authorized the establishment of a free academy in the City of New York. The people of the city ratified this act on June 9, in the referendum to which the Herald refers. Building was begun in a short time, and on January 15, 1849, the doors of the Free Academy at Lexington Avenue and Twenty-third Street were opened to the first class of 143 young men. Horace Webster, a West Point graduate, was appointed the first president of the institution and in the twenty-one years of his adminis- tration established that military tradition, the remains of which the stu- dent body is attempting to eliminate even to-day. During the entire ad- ministration of President Webster, compulsory chapel was held every morning at 8:40. Five demerits were marked against a student every time he was late for chapel. tkirty-tU'O In spite of the harsh military spirit which pervaded the college, student activities slowly began to develop. Clionia. the oldest literary society, was founded in 1851, and was followed the next year by Phren- ocosmia. Sigma Xi. the first fraternity, was established in 1853, and was followed by Alpha Delta Phi (later Delta Alpha) in 1855, and Delta Kappa Epsilon in 1856. 'flic Gamma chapter of Phi Beta Kappa was founded at the college in 1868. A word might be said here about the beginnings of the college publi- cations. The Microcosm, established in 1858 as a four-page leaflet, has now expanded to an annual of three hundred pages. Mercury, founded in 1880, was a newspaper, literary magazine and comic, all in one. In 1907, with the establishment of The Campus, Merc left the field of jour- nalism, and in 1922 became purely a comic when Lavender, the baby of C. C. N. Y.’s publications, took over the literary field. In 1866, the Legislature changed the name of the institution to The College of the City of New York. Three years later, Major-Gen- eral Alexander Stewart Webb, another West Point graduate, and hero of Pensacola, Bull Run, and the Seven Days Battle, succeeded Dr. Webster. With mathematics as the basis of the curriculum, and an abhorrence of the new-fangled ideas in education, very little was done toward the liberalization of the college during the incumbency of the two military presidents. The college was oj ened to all young men of the city of proper age and preparation by an act of the Legislature in 1882, and the adminis- tration of the college was placed in the hands of an independent Board of Trustees in 1900. By an historic appearance on the floor of the State Senate in 1898, General Webb obtained $200,000 for a site for new college buildings. In September 1903 occurred what were probably the two most impor- tant events in the history of the College. The inauguration of the third president. Dr. John Huston Finley, laid the foundation for the liberaliz- tion of the college from the militarism of its early years, and the lay- ing of the cornerstone of the present college buildings laid the founda- tion for the physical liberation of the college from its grossly inadequate quarters in Twenty-third Street. • CHOW LtWIS a.WICJC- ahchitlcu , ftojy m AS THE INTERIOR OF THE NEW LIBRARY WILL APPEAR Under the presidency of Dr. Finley, the first steps were taken to definitely liberalize the college. Among the first acts of the new pres- ident were the abolition of the demerit system, the broadening of the curriculum, and the establishment of the Student Council. In 1907, the group of buildings on St. Nicholas Terrace were dedicated with impres- sive ceremonies. Sidney E. Mezes l ecame the fourth president of the college one year after Dr. Finley’s retirement in 1913. lie announced as his policies the further broadening of the curriculum and the extension of student dem- ocracy. With the development of athletics, the need for a stadium be- came acute. In 1913, Adolph Lewisohn came to the aid of the college with a gift of $200,000 which made possible the erection of Lewisohn Stadium. In 1919, the School of Business and Civic Administration and the School of Technology were organized and two years later the School of Education was instituted. After many years of work to secure the necessary funds, ground was broken for the college library in March of this year. It is expected that the first section of this structure will be completed by next spring. The administration of the college hopes that while the first section is under construction, sufficient funds may be raised to permit the erection of the entire library within a short period. The extreme congestion of the college buildings at St. Nicholas Ter- race coupled with the absence of a collegiate institution in Brooklyn, led to a demand which culminated last September in the establishment of the Brooklyn Centre of the College. As soon as a suitable site can be chosen, a group of buildings, similar to those in Manhattan, will be erected to house the Brooklyn branch. For many years, the old Twenty-third Street building of the college was used to house some of the business students who attended the Evening Session. Recently, these buildings were condemned as unfit for further use and a new building is jiow under construction. The structure will be nine stories high, but provision will be made for the addition of seven more stories when sufficient funds are available to complete the skyscraper college of the city. One can imagine the eleva- tor operator announcing, “Twelfth floor, History, Government, and Geol- THE NEW PROJECTED COMMERCE BUILDING thirty-six i I j w ogy. Chemistry, next floor.” This downtown building will be used for all business and pre-professional students. This will leave the Main Centre a college of Liberal Arts and Science. Late in March. Dr. Mezes resigned the presidency, and Frederick B. Robinson, the first alumnus to hold that office, became the fifth pres- ident of the college. He announced as the principal task of his admin- istration the completion of the ambitious expansion program undertaken within the past few years. In a short time, with the materialization of the plans for the enlargement of the college, we shall have one of the largest institutions of learning in the country. And with an ever-grow- ing student demand for the complete liberalization of the College and the extinction of the remains of that militarist spirit, exemplified in the maintenance of a compulsory course in military science, we may, in a few years, have one of the few truly “liberal” institutions of higher education in the countrv. tkirty-tnt Headlines of the Year OCTOBER BASKETBALL AND X-COUNTRY ASPIRANTS REPORT.

His head in a coma, he took his diploma To the registrar seeking more knowledge. For the boy didn’t know that to learn one must go Most anywhere but to a college. This is a story of evil, the tale of the class twenty-seven. Many a flower begotten to bloom and to blossom unseen. And many to flourish with profit in crude alcove statecraft supreme, Of these and their triumps we sing, (daring the wrath of the muse). September brings trouble to freshmen, tormented by cruel upper classmen. Despite their red ties they arc manly, (the frosh, not the cruel upper classmen) For daily the sophs at each portal, carefully con haberdash’rv; But, craven, they ceased their annoyance, on seeing the numbers of freshmen, Who challenged white socks and red neckties- “Clothes make not the man” was their war-cry. Great was the might of Iz Seidler, and lusty the blows of his bludgeon. F’en Schiflf the Philistine commander, was felled in the dark of the tunnel. How goodly arc thy dents oh hey! Since this is no self-praising saga, we dwell not on Stadium conquests; The frosh fried the varsity daily on the hot grid of practice embroilments; Salamonick and Naiman and Meisel, (all numbered amongst the departed) Boo-hoo!

The exercise made the frosh hungry, and forthwith they hied them Jersey, To feed on sweet peas and tamales. Oh damn Vergil’s hide and his dactyls. Sweet odors of the feed were wafted to the sensitive nostrils of the sophs, who, getting wind of the whereabouts of the affair, had it knocked out of them by a dozen stalwart cops (may their tribe in- crease!). Let us now ascend from the inane to the insane. Little much else of the freshmen to chronicle here in their saga. Hard were they beat and in public, at carnival time in the spring; But numbers again awed the mighty; they held not their sport in the fall.

Then came on the push-ball encounter, a battle full fated to rattle, Down ages much further extended than that of the great Neolithic. In this art both classes were able, they strove and they strained and they struggled, When suddenly mid the fierce melee, the pushball fell fiat as a pancake. Blank-blankety-blank (this was censored), the oaths of the bloody com- batants. In football the class raised to stardom, the first great eleven in decades, (The reason for this is apparent to those who know gridiron history) ; But the half loaf is better than nothing, and ours was a handsome four- sevenths. Our smoker was uninterrupted, except for the coughs of those present Who for two bits or less had acquired, a pipe with five pounds of tobacco But grubbing of cigarettes proved cheaper, though pipes saved the cost of a dinner. This was the great age of freedom, when empty seats flourished in class- rooms, W hile sophs, more aesthetic than brutal, went in for artistic adornment, With panoplies decked the bright al- cove, with tatters of late freshman garments. And so to the coveted goal, closer were we by a year, Naive, abysmally, stupid, innocent, little suspecting. That once our objective attained, we should bayer have to work for a living. birnbaum GOLDBERG J MMMBWliiattiaMMHHWlifllimiMniliAlMilimtAlilgllX •« i 1 PROPHETS Sixteen men on a dead man’s chest.

The freshman and sophomore milestones have been left in the rear, not without a parting sigh of regret, and the ad- vance now takes its way to the last and most imposing milestone of them all, beyond which lies the goal. Turning from the lightness and frivolity of the preceding two years, the junior class entered into its new estate with seeming dignity of de- meanor. The important social function of its college life, the formal Junior Prom, held at the Plaza Hotel, proved «an affair of exceeding life and beauty. Though far from a monetary suc- cess, it was, from a social stand|x)int, an event to be viewed with pride. As much cannot be said, alas, for the Junior Banquet. The mere handful who attended this latter function could not make up in noise and spirits for that great emptiness which reigned around the festive board. JACK DRKSNICK President In the larger life of the College, ’28 as usual has played an important part. To the basketball, water polo and swimming teams it has given captains, and to all teams has contributed fighting men. In publications, too. 1928 men are at the helm in more than one field. The editors-in- chief of The Campus and of I.avender are both members of the class. Viewing the activ- ities of its members as individuals and as parts of a group, it may be said with justice that ’28 is fulfilling in achieve- ment the bright promise of its earlier vears. Class of 1929 AYS to the fore in extra-curriculum activities, the mem- 's of the ’29 class began their career as sophomores by di- cing frosh rules strictly and by entering intra-mural sports h vigor. The class proved practi- ly invincible in winning both the basketball and swimming tournaments. Among the features of the frosh-soph acti- vities were several ripping fights, a number of taxicab abductions and a flag rush. The Soph Smoker was to wind up the season. Kagcrly the committee planned to make this one of the most memorable affairs in the history of the College. Plans were secretly drawn up, a feast arranged for. souvenirs purchased, and three freshmen pledged to appear. Came the night! Telephones rang almost simultaneously in the homes of a hundred sophomores, the rendezvous was softly whispered about, and one hour later every one was hurrying toward the assigned meeting place. After assembling at the Battery, the sophs took the ferry to Staten Island and then made their way to the Hotel St. (ieorge—but the wily frosh were on the trail. JACK B. ROSENBERG President In the midst of the merry making, the hotel was suddenly assailed, and judging from the pandemonium that then ensued, one might imagine that the entire freshman class had gone on the war path. However, when the Staten Island police force appeared on the scene and, single- handed. took the four brazen 30 men in hand, quiet was re-established and the affair was per- mitted to continue with- out any further undue interruption. The annual Soph Strut in the College gym- nasium. attended by a colorful crowd of Terp- sichorcan Trotters, brought the sophomore activities of the year to a close in gala fashion. I. SANFORD COHEN President BEN ROSENTHAL President one hundred forty-five Q2- J Class of 1930 HE changing at mid-year from the freshman ranks to that of sophomores, class battles, flag rushes, frosh feeds, soph smokers, and inter-class athletics all combined to make the history of 1930 replete with excitement and activity. As freshmen, the 19.30 men first upset a tradition of three years by winning the flag rush and frosh-soph banner. In capturing the banner, the yearlings proved their superiority over their opponents in track, cross-country, basketball and debating, as well as in the annual rush for the flag. The class of 1929 annexed the cane spree, the tug-of- war. the swimming meet and the water jhiIo contest, while the frosh-soph soccer game resulted in a tie. Frequent conflicts between the freshmen and sophmores on the cam- pus and in the alcoves did much to refresh the jaded sensibilities of the upper-classmen. One taxicab driver will attest to the disasterous out- come of a battle with the infants of 1931 in the spring term, the latter proving quite capable for their age. The greatest activity was displayed just Ik-fore the Christmas va- cation, when the banquets of both classes were held. On December 16, one hundred twenty-five freshmen assembled with great secrecy on lower Hroadwav and succeeded in running the frosh feed without any undue- interruption from the second year men. A week later, even the wilds of Staten Island could not deter the intrepid frosh and they mustered what strength they could and raided the soph smoker, staging a rescue of three classmates who had been captured by the sophs. As sophomores them- selves. the 1930 men aided in the education of the class of '31 with frosh sings and a carni- val. A successful dance was held in the gym on April 15. ARTHUR TASS President CHARLES HINDER President r.r one hundred forty-seven Associate Alumni NELSON S. SPENCER President Associate Alumni of The College of the City of New York was organized in 1853 by the first class graduated from the College. In 1913, the society was reorganized as a membership corporation under the laws of the State of New York. The date of the organization of the society is significant in view of the fact that the oldest organized alumni association in the United States is that of Williams College which was founded in 1821. The influence of the Alumni Association has been largely spiritual and moral. On several notable occasions, however, the graduates have shown in very tangible form their willingness to give material aid to the institution. Particularly was this so in the days when the institution had outgrown its old home at twenty-third street. Led by Edward Morse Shepard ’69, the alumni were marshalled to obtain a new site and adequate buildings. The full measure of their success is well known. The year 1927 marks the fruition of the long cherished plan of the Associate Alumni to add to the college buildings a suitable library to be known as the Alumni Memorial Library. Excepting for the gift of one hundred thousand dollars by the City of New York, the funds for this building have been raised by graduates and former students of the College as a sign of their gratitude for the education they received at the College and of their desire to give tangible evidence of the loyalty of the Alumni. All the activities of the Alumni center in the Alumni Office in the Webster Room of the main building which is the home of the society. Here are maintained various records and files necessary to the maintain- ance of an effective alumni association and here also are issued the various numbers of the Alumni magazine and the several publications of the Association. This central office has been in operation for nine years and during that time has served to coordinate the activities of individual alumni and of the several classes for the building up of a truer sense of alumni loyalty to the college and the carrying on of various projects looking toward the welfare of the institution. Membership in the Associate Alumni is open to all graduates of the several schools of the College and to former students who have completed one year of College credit. Annual dues for each of the first fifteen years after graduation are three dollars, and for each year thereafter five dollars Life membership is open to any alumnus on the payment, at one time, of one hundred dollars. The privileges of membership include the re- ceiving of the City College Alumnus, the monthly publication of the Asso- ciate Alumni. 'AN one hundred forty-eight f Associate Alumni Nelson S.

Fensterstock ’28, Secretary NHERITING a legacy of trouble from the previous term, the fall student council rolled up its sleeves and immediately set to work to clean up the Campus mess. The Campus had ap- peared on the “U” ticket, although presumably excluded from the Union by the last council, but after months of discussion, attempts at compromise and bales of red tape, the college periodical was ousted from the “U” once more. The complications this might have caused The Campus were obviated by the adoption of the plan providing for a universally elected student council entirely disassociated from the Union. This was by far the most important achievement of the council. The only other actions of any note that were carried out during the term were the sponsoring of the Debating Council, which has always been in need of financial aid; and the functioning of the discipline and insignia committees. one hundred fifly-tteo BARRON.

Kanstoren, President Hyman Sorokoff, Vice-President Moe Abromowitz, Secretary )R the first time in the history of the College this spring membership in the Student Council was made universal, all students being privileged to vote for the officers and dele- gates. The request for universal suffrage was sponsored by President Robinson and was favorably voted upon by the Board of Trustees at its first meeting late in the fall. However, shorn of its main activity, the Union, the council had virtually nothing to do. The major work of the first | art of the term was the drawing up of a new constitution. Of lesser importance was the committe work. The intra-mural committee functioned very well, holding a track meet, swimming meet, and basketball tournament for the various clubs and organizations. The discipline and insignia committees were active as in the past. With the formation of the new Union, the publications and the Athletic Association, which had also drawn up a new constitution in the fall, of necessity left the council organization, leaving it to devote its major attention to activities like the fostering of the debating team. one hundred fifty-three The Microcosm HARRY E.

The result, to use the words of one of the Campus reviewers, was “not so hot.” In the first issue of the fall term, the “In- telligentsia” were assiduously toasted and dis- sected. Descending from the sublime to the ridiculous, the following number of the comic was devoted to the Faculty. The outstanding features of both issues were the drawings of Sidney Sedwitz ’28, the art editor. The editors declared that they were deluged with material for the two final issues of the fall semester, and the magazine departed from its usual path by presenting two numbers of general scope. These were even more mediocre than the first. Unexpectedly appearing on time for the first occasion in a goodly period of years, in the spring Mercury put forth an issue which was unqualifiedly bigger and better. The little god of quip and jest achieved the quintessence of literary satire in the Modern Art number, which made a well-rounded, professional-looking comic. The drawings of Sedwitz and Max Gitlin for this issue were unusually pleasing. Bernard Smith brought his editorship to a close with this number, for which he had done his best work, and turned over the reins to Edwin A. Lewis '27. As The Microcosm goes to press, it learns that the new editor has promised an Education number for the next apj)earance of the magazine. Mercury’s history as a pure comic dates only from 1922. When it was founded in 1880 through the efforts of Prof. Lewis Freeman Mott '83 and three other members of his class. Mercury included the character- istics of a literary maga- zine, news journal and comic rolled into one. With the appearance of The Campus in 1907, the scope of the older pub- lication was narrowed, and the former, once-a- term issue of a cap and bells number was ex- panded into a regularly appearing comic in 1922, Lavender being founded that year.

The Lavender took a new lease on life with the appointment of a new editor, Robert Faber ’28 taking charge of the magazine. Hoping to reach a greater reading and contributing public, the editor announced that the publication had ceased to be purely a literary magazine and issued a call for articles of a scientific nature. This resulted in an exposition on the motion picture industry, in the first issue, and reflections on Eddington's theory of the effect of light pressure on the stars, in the second. The lack of interest evinced in this policy, however, resulted in a return to the original field. The efficiency of the business manager, Harry Horowitz, made pos- sible an increase in the size of the magazine and a change in the format. Cover designs were made use of, type was set in two columns, and the entire tone of the publication mas made more professional. The second issue contained many half-tone pictures while the third made use of a linoleum cut. In contents.

Thorn 1928 John K. Ackley David A. Davidson Robert Faber Howard W. Fensterstock Arthur Goodfriend Matthew Mester Irving Zablodowsky )UNDED in the spring of 1927 by the editors of all the Col- lege publications, The Garret has a two-fold purpose. As an honorary journalistic society, it offers a means of awarding recognition to juniors and seniors who have rendered out- standing service on one or more of the organs of the College press. In the second place, The Garret aims to establish a firm bond of co-operation and understanding among the members of the staffs of the College papers and thus lead to an interlocking of forces and the presenta- tion of a united front, and to inevitable expansion. The name of the new society originated from the situation of the offices of all the publications on the fourth floor of the College in rooms reminiscent of the abodes of the traditional long-haired and short- changed poets. Proximity, in past years creating the proverbial con- tempt, served during 1926-27 to arouse a close bond among the executive members of the various boards, a bond transcending the usual cigarette- grubbing acquaintanceships. Consequently, The Garret has served a social end. Election to membership is by invitation only, and there are no an- nouncements of candidacy. one hundred sixty-one one hundred sixty-two one hundred sixty-three PROF. SCHULZ. WAKMUND. MARCUS. TEMPLE CRUMMETTE. MITCHELL. GLADSTONE. VELINSKY Debating Team EBATING’S biggest year since 1923 witnessed the spectacle of a forensic squad unbeaten in four encounters. The team of the previous season had left the squad with tentative de- bates with Boston College and Gettysburg, to which were added contests with New York University and Rutgers. The Debating Council, consisting of Richard Vogel ’27. chairman, Irving Lubroth ’28, Abe Birnbaum ’29 and George Bronz 30. initiated the season with a tag drive which resulted in a return of $100, which enabled the team to carry out a wide range of activity. Thanks is due to a beneficent alumnus, Leon Cooper ’10, for his generous contribution. Early in Octol er. a squad of eight men was chosen by Professors Palmer and Schulz. This was made up of Charles M. Schapiro '27, cap- tain. Irving Gladstone, Harry Mitchell, Meyer Velinsky, Max Grumette, George Warmund, Robert Marcus and Irving Ramsaren, all seniors. Three veterans, Schapiro, Mitchell and Gladstone, took the stand against cancellation of the allied debts in the first encounter and de- feated N. Y. U. on January 7. The same team won from Boston College on the question of the independence of the Phillipines. Again upholding the negative of the cancellation of debts issue, Warmund, Grumette and Velinsky defeated Gettysburg, the audience voting for the decision by the Oxford system. On March 11, the team was awarded a unanimous decision of the judges in a debate with Rutgers on Philipine Independence. Biology Club David Levowitz, President Abraham Schur, Vice-President Abraham Schectkr, Secretary Harry Schorr, Treasurer Prof. Abraham J. Goldfarb, Faculty Advisor KITING every second week of the year, the Biology Club con- ducted a number of symposiums and heard many interesting discussions on leading biological topics. Hikes and held trips were also on the organization’s program, and these combined the pleasantness of gatherings in the open with the informa- tional value to be derived from practical observation of the things studied in the bio laboratory. The society also conducted several smokers, its annual Hallowe’en party, featured by several biological burlesques, and its annual banquet. Another feature was the medical school symposium held by the club for the purpose of disseminating infor- mation and advice to pre-med students as to entrance requirements and other qualifications demanded by various medical schools. Among other activities of the year was the annual Bio Fund drive. This is fostered by the Bio Club every year, the funds raised by a tag drive permitting several scholarship men to study during the summer months at the station at Cold Springs Harbor. An attempt was also made this year to establish a table of research at Woods Hole. The Palisades was the scene of a few of the club’s hikes, and a marine collecting trip to Hunters Island was included in the outdoor activities. A natural history survey of New York was con- ducted by the natural history committee of the club. Symposiums on cancer and endocrine glands and a series of lectures on the prolonga- tion of human life were among the other fea- tures. The annual ban- quet, held at the Hamil- ton Place Hotel early in J u n e, concluded the events of the year. ABRAHAM J.

Rothman Lester Turner itself in abilities mediary HE Deutscher Verein is representative of a new element in col- legiate activity. It attempts to foster a spirit of individualism, and it exhibits in its organization and work a life of sponta- neous student activity. The Deutscher Verein has endeavored j to assert itself as a student organization and has taken an im- jiortant part in a movement which is gradually manifesting societies throughout the collegiate world. It has expanded its over many fields of endeavor and has played a vital part as intcr- between the student and teacher. The existence as well as the success of the organization has been made possible by the strong bond that has been established between the faculty and the students of the Department of German. Professors von Klcnze, Whyte and Waldman, and Drs. Kinkeldey, Liptzen and von Bradish have all encouraged and nurtured this attitude. On March 12. the Deutscher Verein presented its most important spring affair, a “Wiener Abend” at the International House. All the talents that the Verein jx ssesses were exhibited before a critical audience. Schnitzler’s “Litcratur” was presented, and the octette, directed by L. Leo Taub. sang Viennese songs. A string quartet, or- ganized and directed by the students, rendered S h u - bert’s “Allegro Assai” and Haydn-Pochon’s “Sere- made.” The dramatic end was looked after bv Harry I. Rothman.

Following this success, the Octette sang at the various functions of the Verein, and broadcasted from various radio stations, receiving letters of praise therefor from all parts of the country. Among the performances of the Octette were those at the meeting of the German professors of Greater New York at Columbia University, at a regular assembly of the James Monroe High School, at a concert of its own in the Great Hall in December, and at the “Wiener Abend.” Great success attended each performance. L. Leo Taub ’29 directed the Octette, while Albert Hofstadter ’29 wrote the voice arrangements.

Leonard Stoll, Chairman, Fall Term Alexander Schlesingkk, Chairman, Spring Term ra rn iALLING tar below the record of former years, the Union ended its existence under the supervision of the Student coun- cil with less than 800 sales. Due to | oor management and a rr 0 very weak campaign, the committee failed to attain the stand- um y |i ard set in previous fall terms. Coupled with these defects, the committee was harassed by the constant bickering of the Student Council as to the validity of the position of The Campus on the stub, which ultimately led to the dissolution of the council as the delegated body of the Union. The establishment of universal suffrage in the elec- tion of council delegates necessitated the formation of a new Union, governed by the activities which combined to form it. namely, the three major publications of the College and the Athletic Association. The “U” booklet, remaining practically intact during the spring sem- ester with the exception of the voting privelege, sold for $3.50. Although it started active work rather late, the committee, under the leadership of A1 Schlesinger ’28, sold about 650 tickets, coming within fifty sales of last year’s record of 700 for a spring term. t PROF. J. TYNAN Advisor Hall. The first was very well received, probably because of the excellent acting of the leading characters portrayed by Miss Mollie Buchsbaum and David Driscoll. The Synge playlet, how- ever, did not arouse enthusiasm. The performance was unusually well- attended. the rebuilt Townsend Harris theatre in the auditorium of that school, being completely filled. Terpsichore finally came into its own at the College. With the organ- ization of the pony-ballet under the direction of Captain Reese, active work was carried on during the spring semester so that a well-trained chorus could be turned out for the musical comedy to be given in the fall. The ballet will also make its appearance at Senior Class Night. Several scores have been submitted and work on the lyrics for the production to be given in the fall has already begun. With the organiza- tion of an efficiently working business staff and the acquisition of a new theatre in Harris, the society has overcome some of the major obstacles in its path and it should flourish as it has never been able to in the past. one hundred seven! y-ltvo Richard A.

During the year, the Menorah’s cultural and educational program included numerous addresses by prominent members of the fac- ulty in addition to regularly recurring open forums. The society also introduced a series of student discussion groups, and invited the younger members of the faculty to speak oi topics of general Jewish interest. During 1927, the Menorah established new branches of its organiza- tion at the Brooklyn Center. A debating team was formed, and debates were held with the Menorah Society of Harvard University in the fall term, and with that of New York University in the spring term. Harvard was the victor in the first encounter, but the second was won hv the Col- lege representatives. The Menorah sent delegates to every intercollegiate Menorah meeting, and held a joint dance with Hunter College in the fall. The spring dance was handled very successfully in the gymnasium on May 21.

The society's major functions consist in the holding of annual dances and smokers and in taking charge of the Charter Day and Safety Day parades. An informal dance was held this year on Dec. 10 at the College. Invitations were sent to officers of the Second Corps Area, members of the Military Science faculty, and friends of the members of the organ- ization. The affair was conducted in accordance with the finest military traditions, the feature being a grand march by the officers and their partners through a sabre arch. The spring dance of the Officers Club was conducted on April 23, and it met with admirable success. Never before in the club’s history had an affair been so well attended. The dance was run under the supervision of Jack W. Kahn ’27, president of the organization. At the Charter Day exercises in May, Harold Xagler ’27, vice- president of the club, acted as colonel, while John Carr ’27 was lieutenant- colonel. The position of adjutant was filled by Casimir Patrick ’27. At the close of the ceremonies the club, as a unit, repaired to the R. O. T. C. armory, where an informal luncheon was served.

EISENSTEIX, SKIDI.ER, SOROKOFF The Year in Sports )OTBALL and rifle shone forth like beacon lights in a night of athletic dimness in 1926-27. The Lavender sport spark began the year by burning at a terrific heat on the gridiron, rose to a white heat on the rifle range, and then died down gradually to a few faint flickers on most other fields, to be revived briefly at the end of the year by sudden success on the tennis court. The basketball team maintained a brilliant pace for a period of eight consecutive games, hut broke under the strain and dissipated all championship hopes by losing to decidedly inferior op- ponents. As if imbued with a new and greater spirit, Doc Parker’s football team exhibited a brand of play unprecedented in City College history. A four-game winning streak that culminated in a crushing triumph over Manhattan College, and an amazing stand against the avowedly formidable Fordham eleven, brought the College into a surprising promi- nence in the football world, with every indication of retaining and per- haps elevating that position. Cross-country and wrestling were rather inconspicuous and mediocre one hundred eghly-five rrih 'iiwj d ' so far as team results are concerned, but in both sports the horizon was somewhat brightened by several sterling individual achievements. The indoor track season was an unexpected failure, and served merely to prepare the team for a more fruitful campaign on the cinder path. In water polo, the sextet that was widely conceded to be a potent factor in the titular struggle was unfortunately afflicted with illness, and consequently finished fourth in the final League standing. The swimming team was again totally eclipsed. The rifie team, one of the most consistent aggregations in the College, succeeded in capturing the only intercollegiate team championship of the year. A long stretch of remarkable sharpshooting enabled the varsity marksmen to overwhelm all rivals in the competition of the Intercollegiate Ironsight League, which included several of the strongest outfits in the country. A quartet of capable pitchers gave promise of a winning season on the diamond, but the Lavender’s perennial weakness at the bat and faulty fielding prevented the expected success. At this writing, the team has won four of the first seven encounters with the stiflfer portion of its schedule still ahead. The racqueteers, consisting of a squad of able veterans and seasoned reserves, proved their merit early in the season by taking their two open- ing matches in clean-cut fashion. The team figured as a prominent con- tender for the Metropolitan court title. Within the College, the year was featured by a rapid development in intramural athletics, in which boxing played the leading part. Interest was kept lively throughout by several inter-class and inter-fraternity tourneys that drew large numbers of competitors. Varsity Letter Men CLASS OI- 1927 Richard Y.

DONSTEIN, DR El BAND, RASKIN - Football 57JITH the fall of 1926, football at City College achieved a new VXi level of success and distinction. Under the expert tutelage of Coach Harold J. Parker and his capable assistant, Roy Plaut, there was developed the finest team {that has represented the Lavender on the gridiron since the sport was revived at the College in 1922. With material picked largely from a junior varsity which had gone through the previous season undefeated, and from a group of veterans of the ’27 class who had been the College mainstay since their freshman days. Doc Parker welded together a powerful, smoothly-working machine consist- ing of a heavy, rugged line and a fast, shifty backficld, a team combining speed and power on the offense with indomitable strength and courage on the defense. A great blessing was the wealth of substitute material, especially in the backfield and end positions. Travelling away from home for its first game, the Lavender opened its season inauspi- ciously enough by bowing to Washington Uni- versity, 10-7. With the College leading bv 7-3, and with less than a minute to play, Stehman, the Washington backficld ace, broke away for a thirty-yard run which effectually turned the tables. The following Saturday, however, the team opened its season at home in grand style by crashing through the formidable St. Lawrence Univer- sity eleven to a 20-7 victory. The powerful Lavender line was impreg- nable, and on the offense tore gaping holes in the Crimson forward wall, through which the College backs swept down the field for repeated gains. Ilarckman, Rosner, and Raskin figured prominently in a superlative exhi- bition of football. “At last,” one graduate rooter was heard to remark, “City College has a real football team!” SEIDLKR §1 With the taste of triumph still sweet in their mouths. Coach Parker’s men jour- neyed out to East Orange, N. J., to nose out Upsala College by the exceedingly close fk score of 7-6. The Lavender was obviously su| erior, but bungled many chances, and did not hit its true stride until the final period. Here a steady march down the field cul- minated in a touchdown, and a surprise for- Vi ward pass for the extra | oint provided the manrin of victory. Raskin s absence during: r 1 Parker the greater part of the game was sorely felt, settel one hundred eiffhly-nine RHODE ISLAND GAME but the work of Josephbcrg in the backfield and Dreiband in the line was particularly impressive. Returning to the Stadium the following week, the College gridders over- whelmed the Rhode Island State outfit by a count of 29-0. The Lavender started quickly and scored twice in the first and third quarters, Goldberg capping it off with a field goal near the end of the game. Raskin Hashed the most spectacular play when he raced fifty yards for a touchdown after receiving a punt. The stonewall defense of the line and a clever forward passing attack were again in evidence. The total of 29 points tallied by the varsity was the highest amassed by a City College football team since the revival in 1922. On Election Day, the Lavender eleven, now nursing a winning streak of three straight, met and vanquished the fighting Manhattan College team at the Stadium by 25-14. On the very first play after the kickoff. Lcs Barckman broke loose and sprinted seventy yards for a touchdown. Before the close of the first quarter the College had rolled up nineteen RASKIN DREIBAND ROSEN BLUTH one hundred ninety points, and soon after the opening of the second period Model went around end for twenty-seven yards and the Lavender’s last touchdown. The insertion of substitutes weakened the team, however, and Manhattan scored just Ik fore the half ended. During the second half the College was unable to score, while the Green made one touchdown as the result of a long forward pass. On Saturday of the same week the varsity went down to defeat before Havcrford, at Haverford, Pa., by the score of 6-0. Not yet fully recovered from its gruelling contest On Tuesday, it was clearly out-rushed and out- played, though not out-fought. Achieving the i eak of their form, the Da vender warriors proved their true greatness by out-fighting and out-plaving the powerful 1'ordham team in a battle which the Ram eventually won by the heart-breaking score of 7-3. in the Stadium. A goal from placement by Halpern in the first period put the College into a lead which it held for more than three quarters of the game. The inspired playing of the Lavender kept the JOSEPHBERO COHEN PACKER one hundred ninety-one I until Maroon on the defensive and stopped the Fordham backficld, led by Zev Graham, dead in its tracks. With the last quartei well nigh gone. Fordham unleashed a desperate air attack which ended when Lcarv stumbled across the line for the only touchdown of the day. It was a heart-breaking struggle to lose, the Lavender making sixteen first downs to eleven for the Maroon in the finale to a brilliant season. Praise for this great team goes first of all to Doc Parker for his skill, and his ability to overcome obstacles. Then to the splendid line consisting of Captain Seidler, Klterich, Halpern. Dreiband, Rosenbluth, Clark, and Rosner, and the backfield of Raskin. Barckman, Josephberg, and Longo, augmented by Cohen and Donstein. And finally to the excep- tionally able group of substitutes among whom Packer, Tubridy, Moder and Gall were outstanding. The junior varsity, handicapped by a tardy beginning and an extreme lack of experience, went through a three-game schedule without scoring. However, the team served its principal purpose well in capably preparing TUBRIDY GALL LONGO MODER one hundred nmeiyttvo the varsity for its successive opponents. This necessitated learning new plays and signals each week, and the resulting disorganization rendered the team powerless against the strong New Utrecht High School, Ford- ham Frosh, and New York Aggies varsity elevens. Outstanding among the jayvee players were Mezey, Jacobs and Forstenzer in the backficld, and Shapiro, Voso, Puleo and Gannon in the line. With the departure of the ’27 class, the College loses many of its stars who have served long and faithfully. Captain Is Seidler, an inspiring leader and fine player; Tubby Raskin, field general and forward passer par excellence; A1 Dreiband, picked as All-Metropolitan center and assist- ant coach for next fall; Artie Rosenbluth, Frank Longo, Jo Josephberg, Bill Cohen, Joe Tubridy and Irv Packer are among those who will be lost through graduation. For next year there is a powerful nucleus. In the line Rosner, Clark, Halpern and Eltcrich remain, and in the backfield Donstein and Barck- man. With pleasant memories of the year just passed, one may feel justi- fied in looking forward to the season of 1927 to prod- uce a team worthy of the achievements of its predeces- sor. and one. which will mark a further and more glori- ous advance of City College on the gridiron. :lark, donstein .

ASST COACH PALITZ Basketball MCE again the College produced a basketball team that mounted high on the intercollegiate ladder, and won for itself an enviable reputation as one of the strongest defensive outfits in the East. Out of a schedule of twelve games, the 1926-27 courtmen were successful in making nine of them victories, counting among their victims the powerful quintets represent- ing Manhattan, Rutgers, St. Johns, N. Y. U., Dickinson and Villanova. an eight-game winning streak, upon which Eastern championship hopes were rapidly forming was brought to an abrupt halt by Fordham, and thereafter the team slumped far below its previous form, not to find itself again until the concluding encounter with X. Y. U. Throughout the season the almost faultless and lightning passwork of Xat Holman’s charges was the most prominent feature. Their machine- like co-ordination, and the uncanny swiftness and accuracy with which the ball moved when in the hands of the I-avender time and time again elicited applause from the visiting stands. Other outstanding qualities were the general floorwork of the players and the presence of an impenetrable defense that forced nearly all their opponents to resort to long shots from mid-field. To mar the otherwise excellent make-up of the team, there was a disappointing weakness in scoring power. Many points were virtually thrown away beacuse of uncommonly erratic shooting from both the floor and the foul-line. The low scores in most of the games during the year may be directly attributed to the tight defense of the Lavender and her own inability to locate the basket. For the fifth consecutive year St. Francis opened the home season for the varsity five, which manifested great potentialities in ringing up a 27-13 victory. St. Johns was next and presented an unusually proficient aggregation. It was only after a thrilling, hard-fought battle that the supremacy of the Lavender was finally established by a count of 24-20. Employing the same .cne defens • which had beaten the College the previ- ous year, the Dickinson quintet proved itself unequal to Holman’s strategy. The game resolved itself into a ridiculous defen- sive match, with the home team holding the ball and out waiting the Carlisle Giants, who refused to alter their zone tactics, and lost by 15-8. Union College and a picked Alumni five, composed of former Lavender luminaries, offered little opposition and were disposed of with ease. Villanova al- holmax most proved a Tartar, but finally succumbed raskin one hundred ninety-fire by a score of 11-9 after one of the most rugged, rough-and-tumble battles ever waged on the College court. The highly-touted Rutgers five hardly proved to be an obstacle in the path of Raskin and his fighting mates, and was turned back by 20-16 in a clean, fast game. The first half of the next tilt, against Manhattan College, found the Lavender at the peak of its form, piling up an unexpect- edly large margin over the strongest oppo- nent it had yet encountered. In the second period, however, the Green and White came back with renewed fight and unloosed a furious rally that carried her to within a single point of the College dribblers, who nevertheless managed to withstand the as- sault and eke out a well-earned triumph. The final whistle shrilled out a 21-18 victory for the Lavender after a desperate, heart-sinking struggle. All championship hopes went glimmering when the team left the home court for the first time and was vanquished by the indomitable Fordham Ram. Evidently nervous, the St. Nick players were swept off their feet by the irresistible speed of the Maroon offense, the final tally being 32-17. After this defeat, the varsity was unable to shake off the slump into which ii had fallen, and became particularly deficient in shooting field and foul goals. Catholic U. and Carnegie Tech, both decidedly inferior to the local courtmen. managed to squeeze out victories by similar margins of a single point. Exceptionally i oor work from the foul-line almost cost the College the verdict in the traditional finale with X. Y. U., although the floor play of the former was vastly better. Afcr tying the count on a lucky goal just at the whistle, the Violet was finally downed by 23-22 in a hectic extra-period tussle. Capain Tubby Raskin, who ended his brilliant athletic career by caging the two winning goals in the play-off session against X. Y. U., is the only regular who will Ik- lost to the team through graduation. He played a consistent, spirited game throughout, and was awarded a berth on the mythical All-Metropolitan five. Hick Rubin- stein, who was elected to succeed Raskin in the captaincy, was the high scorer for the season, and a vital cog in the team’s magnificent passwork. Teddy Meisel, who supplied the necessary aggressiveness, and Jack Hirsch, who exerted a fine steadying influence uj on his teammates, filled the guard positions with the utmost capability. Jack Goldberg, who bore his brunt of the burden at center, rounded out WILLIAMS one hundred ninety-six the quintet. Sid Leschner, who graduates this year, and Sam Liss, both reserve forwards, gave creditable exhibitions on the few occasions upon which they broke into the line-up.

Coach Paiker, at the helm for his second year, found plenty of hurling material in the veterans, Artie Mcder and Kind Kany, and in the newcomers, Frank Musicant and Hen Puleo. The real weakness of the team lay in the customary lack of hitting ability, which, coupled with errors in crucial moments, resulted in the loss of several games and nullified fine performances in the box. A sound trouncing administered to St. Francis by th score of 15-2 provided an auspicious opening to the schedule. Moder allowed but three hits in the seven innings played, while his teammates were running wild on the bases at the expense of the visitors’ misplays. St. Johns’ proved too much for Kany and won an 8-4 victory, errors in the infield at critical moments proving the undoing of the College nine. Musicant Hashed some capable relief work in the closing innings. The high spot of the entire season was achieved in the Stadium when, meeting the reputed N. V. U. nine, the College ball-tossers turned in the biggest Metropolitan upset of the year by carrying off a 3—2 triumph in a brilliant exhibition of big-league baseball. Artie Moder carved a new niche in the Lavender hall of fame in holding the Violet murderers’ row to but six hits in the College’s first win since 1920. A neatly-executed delayed steal produced the deciding tally for Coach Parker's players, who bunched their hits effectively and fielded in almost faultless style. The outcome of the contest blasted all Violet championship hopes, and brought the College to a prominent position in the Metropolitan standi 'g. Rutgers, after «an interesting pitching duel, managed to squeeze cut a 2-1 win in the third engagement, when a bad error let in the deciding tally. Seton Hall then succumbed by a count of 4-2 in a dull game featured by the surprise pitching of Puleo. The strong Villanova outfit handed the varsity its third defeat of me year by 5-2. After taking Stevens into camp without much trouble, the Lavender rang up its first shutout victory against Ursinus. Timely hitting and airtight fielding aided Puleo in achieving a ephron 4 0 decision. rosenberc, one hundred ninety-nine Track r WAS with a feeling of relief that the varsity track team rang down the curtain on a rather drab indoor season, and turned its attention to the cinder path. The campaign on the boards served no other purpose than to provide necessary competition and seasoning in preparation for the outdoor schedule. What might have been a championship mile relay quartet was ruined by the failure to find an adequate fourth man to fill the place of the departed Pinkie Sober. Prospects for the outdoor season, which at this writing was still a matter of the future, appeared somewhat brighter. Coach Mackenzie had at his disposal a considerable number of experienced performers, notably Peltzer in the two-mile run, Herman in the mile. Captain Low and Levy in both the 880 and 440, and Smith, Hoffman and Barckman in the sprints. The great weakness of the squad seemed to lie in the field events, in which department Mac was handicapped by a deplorable dearth of material. The Penn Relays were the first engagement, and following hard upon this came dual meets with Temple, Manhattan and Fordham. In their only triangular meet of the year, the Lavender runners matched strides with Rutgers and X. Y. U. two hundred CliOQi Cross-Country two hundred one HOUGH a much stronger outfit than any of its predecessors, the varsity swimming team could r.ot pull itself out of the cellar position in the league ranking. The natators were clearly at a loss against league teams, but showed up to advantage against other aggregations. A lack of good sprinters was the main shortcoming, as evidenced by the loss of three meets on account of a i� oor relay quartet. Ifl« w m • T w COACH MACKENZIE, KARASHEFSKY, BARKIN, ELTERICH.

Individual honors went to Cap- tain Bernie Epstein, who enjoyed a record breaking streak throughout the season, and who was kept from a conceded place in the Intercollegiate Championships by illness. Epstein numbered among his feats a new Met- ropolitan mark in his specialty, the 200 yard breast-stroke. Dick Boyce, captain-elect, Dave Herman, Harry Meiscl, Sol Barkin. Julie Cowan, Sam Karachefsky, Irv Goldman and Jinks Lewis more than once turned in creditable performances. i COACH MACKENZIE, LEWIS, MODF.LL.

DIAMOND Water Polo RR raising high hojies of an intercollegiate championship, at the outset of the season, the varsity water poloists were hard hit by circumstance and could finish no better than fourth in the final league standing. Sickness and lack of practice, and a consequent absence of scoring punch, all con- tributed to the disappointing results. Yale, Princeton, Navy and Dart- mouth were too strong for the Lavender. There were compelling reasons to assume that the sextet only at times realized its full potentialities. The crushing defeat inflicted upon Penn, who was swamped by a 54-4 tally, gave evidence of the team’s power. Again in the first half of the Yale match and in the closing period against Syracuse, the varsity revealed its true form. Captain Nat Greenstein. flashy forward, was the main cog in the Col- lege offense, and ranked high among the scorers of the league. Gene Devine, Joe Tubridy, Dick Diamond, Artie Roscnbluth and Jinks Lewis, all hard fighters, were the other graduating members. Johnny Elterich, All-American selection, was chosen to lead next year’s outfit, for which Willie Halpern and a group of capable reserves remain. two hundred three , . BRODMAX. HALPKRX ACATSOX, LICHTKNFELS, NACLKR, MARGOUES Varsity Rifle A group of veterans composed the only undefeated team in the iron- sight competition, the outstanding marksmen being Captain Lichtenfels, Nagler, Shapiro, Feinberg and Halpem. This quintet established a rep- utation for unequaled accuracy and consistency, each man achieving a season average of 290 out of a possible 300. Lichtenfels. in one engage- ment, chalked up the highest score of the year when he hit the 295 mark. I tvo hundred four rav hundred five R. O. T. C. Rifle HE R. O. T. C. rifle team concluded a season of unusual success by capturing second honors in the competition of the Second Corps Area Division, which includes the states of New York, New Jersey, and Delaware. In all the engage- ments contested throughout the difficult schedule, the crack combination of Syracuse University alone managed to excel the efforts of the Lavender nimrods. The winning of the runner-up position in their division entitled the sharpshooters to participate in the Inter-Corps Area championship to determine the resting place of the national title. The results of this meet are at this writing not yet available, but the high calibre of the team’s marksmanship during the year makes it practically certain that even a better showing will be made than in 1926, when twelfth place was won from a field of over one hundred institutions. Several of the men on the championship varsity squad also occupied berths on the R. O. T. C. outfit, composed of Captain Nagler, Miller, Halpcrn, Hoffman, Seligman. Tekulsky, S. Brodman, K. Brodman, and Daniels. Captain Reese of the College Department of Military Science and Tactics served as coach, and was a most potent factor in the team’s success. K. BRODMAN, BERMAN.

SULLIVAN, HALPERN Wrestling two hundred six luo hundred seven )il Mi fc FRESHMAN BASKETBALL TEAM Freshman Sports ANY of the difficulties Lavender coaches arc facing at present may be eliminated next year when a number of talented freshman athletes become eligible for varsity competition. The classes of 1930 and 1931 are certain to be well represented in all four major sports which the College supports by the time the respective seasons roll around. The crop of yearlings in football, basketball, baseball, and track dur- ing the past semester was plentiful and of a promising calibre. At the present writing, only the gridiron and court teams have had the oppor- tunity to flash their abilities in active competition, but past performances and skill displayed in practice sessions on the diamond and track are most encouraging. As usual, the frosh basketball quintet was a first-rate combination, and succeeded in compiling the same record as the varsity with nine victories in twelve starts. The outstanding accomplishments of the team were the winning of the annual encounters with the cubs representing Manhattan and Fordham, by scores of 14-8 and 23-22, respectively. Among the other teams defeated were the College sophomores, Concor- txvo hundred nine dia Prep, and Thomas Jefferson, Janies Monroe, Stuyvesant, Boys' and Morris High Schools. Commerce High School and the St. Johns’ and N. Y. U. frosh fives managed to take the measure of the 1930 dribblers. The Star of the team was Lou Spindell, who in addition to being the high scorer, was easily the best all-around man on the squad. Hoch- man proved to be a fine offensive player. The regular line-up until mid- year when three players graduated into soph ranks consisted of Hoch- man and Feleppa, forwards; Spindell, center; Leschner and Denenholtz, guards. Captain Trupin broke his knee-cap in the second game and was unfortunately lost to the team for the whole season, Spindell later suc- ceeding to the captaincy. After the mid-year, Riak, Korson, Berger, and Goldstein became regulars, while Kanter and Paskowitz subbed. In the absence of a regular freshman eleven, the 1930 gridders played with the jayvee, and contributed quite a few capable men. Chief among them were Voso, Poliakoff, Puleo. and Gannon, all of whom are ex- pected to make strong bids for varsity berths in 1927. A flock of young track and field satellites may solve all of Coach MacKen .ie’s troubles next year. Lynch and Rubin sized up as accom- plished sprinters capable of hitting 10.6 for the century dash and twenty feet in the broad jump. Lerner loomed up as a consistent distance runner and Vance as a specialist in the weight events. Mofshof and Fitzgerald, who have cleared five feet nine inches in the high jump, rounded out the array. Baseball is still an unknown quantity, but a good season seems assured with such experienced men as Captain Goldhammer, Israel, Spindell, Jacobs, Zachar, Blum, Werk, Korson, Timiansky, and Bracker.

Murphy f y HE third year of the Council’s existence was marked by its growth to an influential organization controlling the College fraternities. There are now included in its membership thirty- j six fraternities. The program and activities of the past year j were varied, and proved fairly successful. The six weeks non-pledge-rule at the beginning of each semester was of great benefit to both the fraternities and the freshmen. An informal inter-fraternity dance was held on January 14, in the gym- nasium. An inter-fraternity basketball tourney was conducted during the spring term and a track meet as well. For the first time in the history of the Council, the fraternity scholarship averages were compiled directly from the records of the dean’s office. r r two hundred fifteen Wj.
