Q 'N s K J HOWELL H. BROOKS PRESIDE T To the Senior Class of l953 - Your tour years on the Coe campus have been rich ones. Always keep in mind that your newly earned degree was made possible by the sacrifices and encouragement ot many people - your parents, the f-aculty and administration and the loyal friends and alumni of the college. You have been given an insight into the great minds and accomplishments of the past and the present. This insight will enable you to distinguish between right and wrong, which is just as important as the distinction between facts and fiction. The degree which you are receiving carries with it tremendous responsibilities which Coe has prepared you to assume. Carry these responsibilities seriously and your country and the world will be better therefor. Always remember your Alma Mater. May Godfs blessings be forever upon you. H. H.

Long known for its athletes, this year was no exception. Four mem- bers were named on the all-conference football team, while Doug Hamilton re- ceived honorable mention on the Little All-American team. -Evidence of Delta Phi's athletic participation can be found in their representation of I5 members on the conference championship foot- ball team, five on the basketball team, three on the wrestling squad, one golfer, nine on the track team, and seven on the baseball squad. The brawn did not overshadow the brains, however, for Delta Phi w-as awarded the interfraternity scholarship trophy. Homecoming found the fraternity tak- ing the first place award for their nov- elty entry float. Representative of campus leadership positions were Chris Iohnston, vice- president of Student Council, Ron Peck, secretary-treasurer of Clan of C and treasurer of Student Council, Bob Rafaj- ko, president of the senior class: Al Peremsky, business manager of the ACORN and president of Clan of Cp C: Paul Riley, freshman class presi- dent, and Wayne Fisher, vice-president of Clan of C. lil -st ' -an 2 ' - we W' :ff-ew frvz-gem-H2-ww-:wmmmzim m mw xml Back Row: B.

Those words best described one of the hottest AFBOTC rifle teams in Coe's history-a small but powerful club which won national recognition time and again throughout the SGOSOH. The top achievement was winning second place out of 500 APBOTC teams in the annual 'William Randolph Hearst national ROTC com- petition, an honor that has not come to a Coe rifle team for nearly l5 years. More honors were added to a long string when the quintet copped a first place in the Air Force area, winning them the right to be one of the teams to represent the Air Force in the national shoot-offs against the Army and Navy. The Kohawk firers also finished .third in the area varsity intercollegiate match at Madison, Wisconsin, and forth in the llli- nios lnvitational meet against a field of 38, the -majority being Big Ten squads. Alternating for the top five positions during the year were Paul and St-an Kosek, Dave Rosenberg, lung Lowe, Tom Hopkins and Harry Amesbury. Providing vital depth was Clair Coy. Maj. Charles L.

But the greatest honor came in lanuary, when the group was invited as the official lowa band delegate to President Dwight D. Eisenhower's inaugura- tion in Washington, D. C. lt was the fifth in- augural trip for a Stanley Vesley-directed group and the first time in history that a col- lege band received such recognition more than three times. Although Vesley will soon retire, his son, Stanley lr., will carry on the Vesley tradition. Augmented by women of Coe, the band traveled on its twentieth annual spring tour through lowa and Illinois, climaxing the trip with a Palm Sunday concert at Orchestra Hall in Chicago.

Miller Highlighting the season were the home victories Knox, Monmouth and Grinnell. Displaying a bril- liant brand of ball and the ever-necessary team play, the Kohawks stunned Knox, 78-50, and Mon- mouth, 83-64, on consecutive nights in mid-season Hhs. hitheu bem pedonnance ofthe year,the cagers upset the highly favored Pioneers, E59-66, in the final home contest. The top season high spot was the development and perfection of Thomsen's patterned stall. A definite crowd-pleaser, the stall was a contributing factor in the Coe victories. I RENNER R. PECK F.

Although budgetorcoadnng aHowancmshad.notbeen made tor the new mat sport, the team prospered under emergency adjustments. Maj. Charles L. Brooks took over the reins as head coach and was assisted by Dave Rosen- berg, Varsity team member. Special monetary appropriations were furnished by athletic direc- tor Dick Clausen.

The scrappy junior from Chicago scored 46 out of a possible 50 points, registering five falls, winning three by forfeit and gaining two decisions. Al 1-lybl, 137, Dick Suttle, 147, and heavyweight Doug Hamilton each wound up with a 7-3 mark while Rosen- berg finished with a 4-l-l record. The squad, who entered the post-season conference meet, will all return next year, with the exception of Hamilton. Several freshmen have also shown promise and will undoubtedly be pushing several of the varsity men for positions in 1954. Page II8 T. ROBERTSON H.

BASEBALL Staggering through a tough ten-game sched- ule, which included such diamond powers as lowa University and lowa Teachers College, Coe's young and inexperienced baseball team could salvage only two wins against eight losses. The victories came at the hands ot Upper lowa University in a season-ending double-header. With only three senior lettermen returning, Coach Chuck Elias taced the problem ot shap- ing a solid combination from 15 green fresh- men and sophomores. Although Elias could Elgin scores amid dust . . . not find a winning unit until the final games, the squad showed consistent improvement and offered proot ot the better things to come in l953. lack Elgin, Bill Fitch and l-larold Lagerstrom led the Kohawks at the plate, each posting averages near the .300 mark. lack Fulton, Dave Iohnston and Tom lohnson were the mound mainstays, many times getting in the hole only because ot a lack of support from the field. lt's a hit! I! Fulton was voted the teamfs most valu- able player by the teammates while Laa- erstrom and Bernie Papierski were named honorary co-captains for the campaign. 1952 SEASON'S RECORD Won 2.

Starting out as a magazine, the COSMOS went through several stages of publication before it finally evolved into its present form of a weekly newspaper. Although the first issues last fall presented a serious problem because of the lack of qualified reporters and copyreaders, the situ- ation eased somewhat in the winter months as members of the newswriting and editing classes began to use the COSMOS as their laboratory period.

The performance starred Dale Kooyman as Howard Wilton, the killer, and Sally Carrinaer as Mrs. Gillis, a sympathetic widow who befriended Wilton. The play dealt with the efforts of Mrs. Gillis to escape from the virtual imprison- ment that Willis imposed upon her in her own home, when he had come to help her with the cleaning. Mrs. Gillis, sympathetic to his loneliness at first, gradually recoq- nized the symptoms of his peculiarity. Suspense mounted throughout the play as Mrs. Gillis tried every conceivable way to escape from terror, while Wilton blocked her every attempt.
