With these aims foremost may the affairs of Duke University ever be administered. Table of Contents BOOK I The University BOOK II Organizations BOOK III Navy BOOK IV Athletics BOOK V Features BOOK VI Pan-Hellenic BOOK I THE UNIVERSITY THE UNIVERSITY INALLY, THE END OF THE WAR HAS COME. To most people this phrase means the return to prewar jobs, the release of precious articles, and the return of husbands and sweethearts. The tenseness has been lifted, the strain has decreased. However, to col- lege students it means a greater demand to stick to the job. The need for education is now all the greater, and Duke University students realize this fact. There is no let-down in the schedules, nor is there a tendency to slacken scholastically. The school has now become a united body instead of a group of individuals, and the spirit that now pre- vails is proof of the fact. To set forth the purpose of a university is a rela- tively simple proposition. However, the proper execution of such a plan is not an easy accomplish- ment. This year the undertaking of this task was all the more difficult, since the university had a reconversion problem on its hands. New courses had to be established, and research programs had to be expanded still more. The change has come, and from this year forward Duke students will sec a definite reawakening in the policy of the Uni- versity. 11 THE UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENT LEADERSHIP OF THE ADMINISTRATION ENDOWS CULTURE AND ATMOSPHERE TO THE UNIVERSITY ROBERT LEE FLOWERS, M.A., LL.D. President of the University VERLOOKING the campus from his I office window, President Flowers re- marked to a student one day that he had been at Duke University so long that he would be unhappy anywhere else. It is with this spirit of devotion that Dr. Flowers has served the University for fifty-five years, and it is with a lively sense of humor and a brilliant mind that he has upheld the school ' s ideals of religion and education. Dr. Flowers, president of Duke University since 1940, has a long record of competent service be- hind him. After his graduation from the United States Naval Academy in 1891, Dr. Flowers re- turned to his native state to begin his long career as an instructor in mathematics, and the follow- ing year he was selected to be the head of the de- partment. In 1910 he was elected secretary of Trinity College, and upon the establishment of Duke University in 1924 he was elected secre- tary-treasurer and later vice president. Upon the death of Dr. William Preston Few in 1940, Dr. Flowers was elected president of the University. It was at this time that Dr. Flowers revealed the message to the students that their influence not only determines largely how others away from the campus will evaluate the Institution but it also molds the aims of those who will guide it in the future. The students are the sole reason for its existence. This message has been the keynote to the overwhelming success of Dr. Flowers as presi- dent of Duke University. Dr. Flowers is a member of Alpha Tau Omega, Omicron Delta Kappa, and Phi Beta Kappa fra- ternities. In 1 900 the honorary degree of Master of Arts was presented to him by Trinity College; in 1927 he received a degree of Doctor of Laws from Davidson College and in 1942 from the University of North Carolina. In addition to his contribu- tions to the school, he has been active in civic affairs and social service. THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES The Bozu-d of Trustees is composed of thirty-six members, who meet semi-annually to receive re- ports from its committees and to approve the issu- ance of diplomas from the University as recom- mended by the faculty. Its powers also include the appointment of the University president, the forming of rules and regulations for the governing of the institution, and the management of the prop- erty and funds of the University. The Executive Committee, which is composed of fifteen trustees, meets once a month to review the annual budget with the assistance and advice of 12 the trustees of the Duke Endowment, established by the indenture of James B. Duke in 1924. It may, at any time, withhold the income allotted to the University if it is not operated in a manner up- holding the standards originally proposed. The objects of the Endowment may be classified as religion, hospitalization, and education, with pro- visions for orphans. The governing power of every university is the administration, which acts as a backbone to the university in order that it will be run smoothly and adequately. Perhaps it is not always evident that Duke is controlled by this capable group of admin- istrators; at times the students themselves seem to be the sole controllers of all school programs. The students, however, are guided by the wisdom and skill of our administrative leaders, and it is to them that Duke owes its reputation of the University with a Purpose. DR. WILLIAM HANE WANNAMAKER A.B., M.A., Litt.D. Vice President and Dean of the University The rapid development and expansion of the Division of Education of the Administration of Duke University has been under the capable guid- ance and supervision of Dr. W. H. Wannamaker as Vice President of the University in the Educa- tional Division. Dr. Wannamaker, with the as- sistance of several other deans, the Council of Ad- missions, and the faculty, directs the program for Duke University. In addition to his regular duties as Vice President and Dean of the University, he has had added re- sponsibilities during the past four years in connec- tion with arrangements pertaining to the Navy pro- gram on the campus, which required conferences from time to time with the Naval officials. He is also a member of Publication ' s Council and Chair- man of the Editorial Board of the South Atlantic Quarterly. He first came to Duke in 1900 as a graduate student and assistant in English. He received his A.B. degree from WofTord College and attended sev- eral German Universities. Before coming to Duke in 1904 as professor of German, he received M.A. degrees from both Harvard University and Trinity College. CHARLES EDWARD JORDAN, A.B. Secretary of the University Mr. Jordan, a Duke Alumnus from Trinity College, first served the University as the assistant secretary. In 1941 he was elected secretary and has served in this capacity since that time. How- ever, he has added to his responsibilities by be- coming a member of the Publications Council and is also connected with the administration of the Student Loan and Scholarship Funds. To com- plete his many services to the University he serves on the committee of religious activities. CHARLES BLACKWELL MARKHAM A.B., M.A. Treasurer of the University Having served a number of years as assistant treasurer to the university, Mr. Markham was elected treasurer in 1941. Before he took over the job of seeing that the financial status was run- ning smoothly, he was a professor of mathematics here at Duke. A Duke man from way back, Mr. Markham re- ceived both his A.B. and M.A. degrees here. For some time he has been a member of the Publication Council and has in the last few years increased his duties to include the handling of the financial matters of the Navy program at Duke. CHARLES AUBREY DUKES, A.B. Director of Public Relations and Alumni Affairs Mr. Dukes was appointed Director in September 1 944, by action of the Board of Trustees. He re- placed Mr. Henry R. Dwire, Vice President and former Director of this office. After graduating from Duke University in 1929, Mr. Dukes held the position of Assistant Director of Public Relations and Alumni Affairs until the death of Mr. Dwire, his predecessor, in 1944. HERBERT JAMES HERRING A.B., M.A. Dean of Trinity College Duke can well be proud of another of its alumnus, Mr, Herring. He has been connected 13 with the University since 1922 when he received his A.B. degree from Trinity College. Seven years later he received his M.A. degree from Columbia University. Prior to coming to Duke, Herring taught English in the R. J. Reynolds High School in Winston-Scilem, N. C, then came to Duke in 1 924 as Assistant Dean. In this capacity he proved himself very valuable both as class adviser and as assistant professor. Three years ago this same capability promoted him from Dean of Men of Trinity College to Dean of the College, and in this capacity he has had gen- eral direction of the academic side of the V-12 pro- gram. Through his efforts, students enrolled in this program were able to obtain degree credits, and much is due him for the enrichment and proper selection of electives. Aside from these activities, Dean Herring finds time to serve on the Administra- tive committee of religious activities. ALAN KREBS MANCHESTER A.B., M.A., Ph.D. Dean of Freshmen, Trinity College Dean Manchester received his A.B. degree from Vanderbilt, his M.A. from Columbia, and his Ph.D. from Duke. In addition to being Dean of Freshmen Men, he has worked for the past few years as adviser in all capacities for V-12 students and civilians. He spent five years in Brazil doing research work and is well equipped for his posidon of Managing Editor of the Hispanic American His- torical Review. In 1943 he was appointed Uni- versity Marshal, succeeding the late Dr. Frank G. Brown who had held the office for many years. With an increasingly larger number of Freshmen men. Dean Manchester ' s responsibilities have in- creased proportionately. Veterans, students, and members of the Navy program alike are under the able leadership of Dr. Manchester. The end of the war has caused the Dean ' s office to become a far busier place, and the great increase in en- rollment has given rise to many extra responsi- bilities for the dean. DIVINITY SCHOOL HARVIE BRANSCOMB A.B., M.A., Ph.D., D.Litt. Acting Dean of the Divinity School Mr. Branscomb was appointed Acting Dean of the Divinity School in August 1944, upon the resignation of Dean Paul Neff Gasber. Dean Branscomb has been a member of the faculty at Duke University since 1925. Prior to 1944 he was Professor of the New Testament in the Divinity School and Chairman of the Division of Ancient Languages in the Graduate School. He received his A.B. degree from Birmingham Southern College, his A.B. and M.A. from Oxford University, his Ph.D. from Columbia University, and Litt.D. from Birmingham Southern College.

Dean Korstian has served in the Forest Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture and has written a series ceilled Authoritative Works in the Field of Silviculture. The emphasis that the war placed upon the importance of the preservation of our natural forests led to the formation of several special commissions. The government requested Dr. Korstian to serve on one of these Commissions. Dr Korstian has also been the director of the program for using the facilities of the famous 5,000 acre Duke forest for research as well as recreation. SCHOOL OF MEDICINE DR. WILBUR C.

He obtained his B.C.E. degree from the University of Michigan in 191 5, and an M.S. in C.E. from the University of Wisconsin in 1927. In 1 91 5 Dean Hall came to Duke to instruct engineer- ing. In cooperation with the war effort, the Col- 15 lege of Engineering intensified its course of study, and consequently had a great increase in enroll- ment. The problems arising from this increase were ably handled by Dean Hall and his associates. HAROLD CRUSIUS BIRD, Ph.D., C.E. Professor of Civil Engineering and Chairman of the Department of Civil Engineering. Dr. Bird came to Duke 20 years ago as Professor of Civil Engineering. Previous to 1926 he was as- sociated with a large company and held the position of engineer and purchasing agent. He received his Ph.D. in 1908 and his C.E. in 191 1 at Yale.

SCHOOL OF NURSING MISS MARGARET PINKERTON B.S. Dean of the School of Nursing Miss Pinkerton graduated from Columbia Uni- versity with a B.S. degree in nursing, and later served in the School of Nursing at the University of West Virginia. Since 1939 the Duke School of Nursing has been under her direction. Miss Pinkerton has done much to help the Nursing School maintain its own Student Government and its own class officers, and to participate in the ac- tivities which Duke offers. WOMAN ' S COLLEGE ALICE MARY BALDWIN A.B. M.A., Ph.D., Dean of Woman ' s College The Woman ' s College, under the direction of Dean Baldwin, has seen many improvements in recent years. New courses are being offered each year, and the continued advancement of education for women is evident. For many years women have been striving for intellectual progress and the recognition of their capability to hold responsible positions in our fast-moving world. In addition to directing the faculty in extending curricular activities and social organizations. Dean Baldwin has been the trusted adviser and counselor of all East Campus co-eds. She represents the 16 friendly relation between professors and students. Dean Bladwin, originally a New Englander, came to Trinity College as the Acting Dean of Women for Summer School in 1923. Six years later she was appointed Dean of Women. Dr. Baldwin re- ceived her A.B. and M.A. degrees from Cornell University and her Ph.D. from the University of Chicago. Besides ably filling her position as Dean of Women, Dr. Baldwin has been very prominent in various educational fields throughout the country. MRS. RUTH S. SMITH A.B., M.A. Assistant Dean of Women Mrs. Ruth S. Smith graduated in 191 2 from Agnes Scott College. In 1927 she received her M.A. from Columbia University. She then came to Duke to fill the position of Assistant Dean of Women and adviser to junior and senior women students. Mrs. Smith realized that in order to do a capable job as an adviser, one must have the right back- ground and training. Therefore, she visited many schools in the Orient, Russia, and England to study their educational facilities, ideas, and methods. With these in mind, she came to Duke with a clear- er understanding of what her job entailed, and how she could go about creating a close relation- ship between the faculty and the students. MRS. WALTER SCOTT PERSONS A.B., M.A. Assistant Dean in Charge of Freshmen Mrs, W. S. Persons graduated from Duke in 1922, and received her M.A. degree in 1928. She stud- ied specialized subjects for two years at the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania. In 1930 she returned to Duke in the capacity of Secretary of the Committee on Admissions. She continues to hold this position as well as being Assistant Dean in charge of Fresh- men. MISS MARY GRACE WILSON A.B., M.A. Dean of Residence Dean Wilson graduated from Winthrop College and in 1 929 came to Duke as Acting Dean of Wom- en during the Summer Session. Miss Wilson be- came the Social Director of The Women ' s College when it was organized. In 1937 she became Dean of Residence, and now is the Councilor for Social Standards. She also plans and approves the varied social program for the Duke University women. MRS. ALINE SCHRAEDER A.B., M.A. Assistant Dean of Residence Mrs. Schraeder graduated from Carleton College in Northfield, Minnesota, and received her M.A. in 1 94 1 from The University of Syracuse. She came to Duke in the fall of 194 1 as House Councilor of Aycock House. This past year she acted as councilor for Southgate Hall in the first year that it was open to women. Mrs. Schraeder also is the Councilor for Sandals, the Sophmorc honorary society. HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSITY Duke University was founded in the year 1838, just one hundred and eight years ago. Since that time, however. Union Institute Academy, the pred- ecessor of the University, has grown from a simple log cabin into a beautiful, magnificent university. Through the inspired work of Braxton Craven who came to the Academy in 1841 Normal College emerged in 1852 as a teacher training institution for the newly-established state school system. Then in 1 859, under a new charter, the name of the school became Trinity College, with Craven as president. Surviving the Civil War years and reconstruction Trinity struggled along for a while to regain its enrollment and to get itself readjusted financially. In 1897, Washington Duke contributed one hundred thousand dollars to a permanent endow- ment, conditioned on the admission of women. In 1899 and 1900, these gifts were supplemented with like amounts. Then through the efforts of Doctor William Preston Few, Mr. Duke signed the inden- ture creating the Duke Endowment in 1924. From this grew both the East and West Campuses of Duke University. In addition to the enlargement of the campus, the institution has also witnessed an un- precedented enlargement of its faciUties for in- struction and research since 1924. 17 MEN ' S S.G.A. IHE MEN ' S STUDENT GOVERN- MENT at Duke was organized in 1922 in order to democratize college life. During the recent war years the membership has been revised to include representatives from the NROTC, V-12 unit, and Engineer ' s S.G.A. M.S. G.A. undertakes not only to democratize Duke, but also to promote social activities and sponsor dances. This year S.G.A. has made provision to have office hoiars in order that students may discuss their prob- lems or complaints. In this way, action may be taken immediately against any harmful misdeeds or disturbances. In cooperation with Women ' s Student Government Association, M.S.G.A. spon- sored a Christmas Bail for December 15. Be- cause of the flu epidemic, however, the dance had to be postponed. B. Munro, the former president of YMCA, served as 1945 ' s president of S.G.A. Ed Koffenberger held the post of vice president. The only civilian candidate, Doc Walker, was elected secretary, and Jay Beam was made treasurer. 1945 ' s new board dedicated itself to making S.G.A. a powerful organ- ization on the Duke campus. The Navy repre- sentatives were Bob Plunkett and R. L. Milone. Kelly Moat and Johnny Bortner, two members of the Blue Devil team, represented Duke civilians in the student government, until the latter was drafted. Bob Kirk was appointed to fill his po- sition. Paul Yount, Jack Shehee, Wilson Griffin, Bill Mitchell, John McKee, and Bob Allen were elected to the Publications Board. Jim LaRue, re- tiring S.G.A, president, said that student interest did not lag in the election. S.G.A. took steps this year to investigate and improve the Union food. Several articles were run in the Chronicle concerning the meals served in the Union, and S.G.A. took definite steps to im- prove the situation. Ed Koffenberger, vice president, was responsible for the decoration of the stadium at the U.N.G. game. In cooperation with BOS, S.G.A. as- sembled the freshmen before the football games and taught them the various cheers. S.G.A. sponsored the sale of the tickets for the Bobby Sherwood dances and the concert held at Chapel Hill. Stu- dent organizations, headed by S.G.A., planned a gala Homecoming weekend, including a big pep rally, an alumni barbecue, Engineers ' Ball, and a decorated stadium and campus. This year, for the first time since the beginning of the war, uni- versity and Navy authorization permitted the deco- ration of the dormitories in prewar fashion. WOMEN ' S S.G.A. N 1919 THE WOMEN students of Trinity College formed a self-governing organi- zation and later in 1924 another forward step was taken when the Student Gkivcrn- ment Association of the Woman ' s College was formed with these aims and purposes: to increase a sense of individual responsibility; to further a spirit of unity among the women of the college; and to cooperate with the faculty in creating and main- taining high ideals for the women of the Uni- versity. Perhaps the most outstanding step taken by the 1945-46 Association has been the development of the Honor System on East Campus. The system was supposed to go into effect during the exami- nation period of the first semester. However, the plan had to be revised and approved by the faculty before it could be used. It has been the hope of W.S.G.A. that, once the Academic Honor System proved its merits, it could expand to include other phases of college life. Another step that was taken by this year ' s Coun- cil was the formation of a Committee to check on the possibilities of a Recreation Center. This Center has been needed for many years, and East Campus is eagerly awaiting the construction of this building. It is hoped that it can be completed within two years. Many changes in rules and regulations have been made during the past year. Among them was the 18 removal of an approved list of eating places in Durham. Duke Coeds were also given pe rmission to stay out on Saturday nights until twelve o ' clock instead of the customary eleven-thirty. They also were given the privilege of smoking in the Union Lobby after dinner. One of the last moves of the first semester was the formation of a Student Co- ordinate Board, which met regularly with the fac- ulty to discuss the various problems and needs of the co-eds. This year, more than ever, East Campus has seen a change in their school. Also they realize that it is their wishes that bring about these changes. New rules and plans are created by student sug- gestion. The W.S.G.A. has truly proved that East Campus is now governed by the students and for the students. NURSE ' S S.G.A. I HE RED BRICK BUILDINGS of the Nurses Home are down the road from the massive stone walls of the famous Duke Hospital. Within these buildings a few hundred energetic young women carry on the func- tion of a powerful organization called the N.S.G.A. Run similarly to the student governments of East and West Campus, this organization regulates all activities of the Duke nurses which do not come under the jurisdiction of the Education Committee. The N.S.G.A. cooperates with the Committee for the best interest of the school and for the nurses at Duke. The University has found this organization to be of great value for both students and adminis- tration. In 1 94 1 the nurses took another step forward by forming an Honor Council. This Council func- tions in complete cooperation with the Student Council, and their chief contact with the student body has been through the pledge all nurses were given in regard to written work and test pa- pers. The Student Council itself consists of girls from representative nursing groups, consisting of the elected president, vice president, secretary, treasurer, the chairmen from the two houses, the chairman of Social Standards, two representatives from each class, and two members from the publi- cations. They meet the first Monday of every month to discuss student affairs and to transact business. Occassionally the Council invites speak- ers to address the group. The meetings on Monday nights are also the time that disciplinary cases are brought up, and plans for the coming meeting are discussed. The nurses must also have an active social pro- gram. This is the iob of the chairman of Social Standards who, assisted by her committee, directs and sponsors all social activities for the members of the nursing school. The program of events in- cludes such functions as sings, open houses, and picnics. The N.S.G.A. has had to expand tremendously in recent years. The enrollment in the Nurses School has tripled; responsibility resting on the N.S.G.A. has increased correspondingly. Because of this fact, the N.S.G.A has maintained itself as a true and capable representative of each and every Duke nurse. SENIOR CLASS The end of the college road has come. The four years have flown by with such rapidity that to each senior it seems like only the day before yesterday that she climbed off the train and was met by Sandals and their Freshmen Advisers. They looked and looked — every chance they got — and they decided they liked what they saw. They decided that they would like to make Duke their home for four years. And they did. The class was ably led this year by Dot Lewis, president; Peggy Otto, vice president; Pat Hanson, treasurer; and Jean Moore, secretary. A great 19 deal of the credit also goes to the class sponsor, Dr. Jeffers. The main projects of the year included such things as the Banquet which was held in January in the Southgate Dining Room for all Seniors gradu- ating at the end of the first semester the annual Senior Class play, starring members of the faculty, and finally the spring Bridge-Fashion Show held in the Ark. The achievements of the Class of 1946 cannot be put into words. They started things this year that it is up to the other classes to finish. They have built the foundation but it is up to the rest of the school to add to this foundation. And it will not be imtil these projects are finished that the school will realize the true value of the Class of 1946. JUNIOR CLASS The Juniors, well known for their looks of wisdom and experience that come after two years of college life, were seen helping freshmen make their C averages and then begging the freshmen to get them blind dates for the week-end. They re membered only too well when they were freshmen, and many secretly wished that they were entering college again instead of preparing for their last year. Pat Marshall served as president of the class the first semester. She was succeeded by Sally Dicker- son, vice president, who acted as president the second semester. Betty Trask served as secretary, and Peggy Wilkinson was treasurer. The Junior representative to W.S.G.A. was Libby Stutts. The Class started the year off with a night in the gym during October. This was preceded by a scavenger hunt through the wilds of the Duke cam- pus. They also sold food in the dormitories every Sunday night in October, but discontinued the service when competition grew with Aubrey ' s Jeep. In March they sponsored a Sunday-night Sing, which had Jean Rockey as its chairman. Then on April 27 the aimual Junior Prom will be held as the final gesture of the year for the Juniors. SOPHOMORE CLASS Having passed the period of greenness and eagerly anticipating the day when they could be called high and mighty uppcrclassmen, the Sophomore Class swept through the year with no mishaps, mistakes, or bitter tears. This was due partly because of the interest that each sophomore due mainly to the excellent guidance of the Soph- omore Class officers. These officers were: Vineta Walker, president; Bertha Garrett, vice president; Carolyn Bunn, secretary; and Mary Morse, treas- urer. It was through the efforts of these officers that the various class functions and projects were carried through with an amazing amount of success. The main project of the year was the annual Sophomore-sponsored Fair that took place in the Ark in March. This Fair included such features as a cake-walk, bingo games. Crazy House, grab-bags, and many other booths and features. It was by this means that the sophomores managed to clear a tremendous profit, which was used in their gala social function on April 6. This was the formal Sophomore Dance, which was given in the Women ' s Union. And so the Sophomore Class passed through the year so successfully that they, like the Freshmen, proved themselves ready to climb the next step in the college ladder. FRESHMAN CLASS Under the very capable leadership of Elizabeth Roberta Walters, the Freshman Class of 1 946 made a memorable record. Mary K. Jordan, vice presi- dent; Ruth Harrell, secretary; and Shirley Field, treasurer, completed the list of class officers. Nan- cy Hanks represented the Freshman Class on W.S.G.A., and it was through her endeavors in co- operation with the Class and W.S.G.A. that such improvements as some much-desired changes in freshmen regulations were brought about. The Class held its weekly meetings every Monday noon. Guest speakers were invited to several of the meetings to discuss topics of interest and im- portance. Various members of the faculty also addressed the assemblies, telling more about the courses offered in their particular fields.

BOOK II ORGANIZATIONS i !  ■m immm cj - ■ ' ■ ' ,% ...t ,-a:-. «ai M)8g To promote a sincere spirit of tolerance. ORGANIZATIONS GAIN, JOE COLLEGE b beginning to assume his rightful sway over Duke activities. The return of peace and many old and new Dukesters has injected new blood into the veins of campus organizations. Although many organizations have taken on a dormant existence, others have been born with the advent of peace. COGS has been replaced in prominence by International and Postwzu Plan- ning clubs. Student energy, in accordance with the great national effort, has been directed toward the making of a better world. The value of organizations to the campus is shown in the worthwhile activities which they sponsor. Both the musical organizations and Duke Players present each year the best in entertain- ment. The Men ' s Pan-Hellenic Association spon- sors the annual Hoof ' n ' Horn show. The pres- entation of the May Day program, one of the war- time casualties, has been assumed by the Women ' s Pan-Hellenic Association with real success. With a combination of tradition and the birth of new vitality, organizations have ascended to post- war prominence. There is no doubt that Joe Col- lege has returned to Duke Campus, full of the spirit of organization and endowed with the potentiali- ties of a Big Man. 95 ORGANIZATIONS ORGANIZATIONS DEVELOP SELF-EXPRESSION AND INDIVIDUAUSM )T ONLY A FULLER college life but ilso a fuller life is offered to the individual through the medium of organizations. Extra-curricular activities are as much a part of the education which is offered at Duke Uni- versity as is the mental stimuli which is presented in the classrooms. An education should not exist merely in the technical sense of the term, for this education which is gained solely from books does not constitute the type of training which the college student of today or any day needs to face life. His education needs to cover a far more compre- hensive scope. He must learn how to work in a group, to accept and carry out the viewpoints and ideas of others, and to make himself an integral and vital part of any group which he may enter so that that group may, through the sublimation of its members, band together to achieve a common goal. This is not an easy task, but it is one of the prerequisites to democratic living which every young person must grasp and master. A freshman in college, who is probably away from home for the first time, generally finds that his primary difficulty is not in making the most of his intellect but in making the most of himself. This means that he must learn to live and work with others who are primarily his equals where before he realizes that his living was less complex since he had others to make his decisions and steer his course. He may have some talent, ability, or interest which he has already tried out to some extent but he finds that in a university he is suddenly entirely on his own to make the most of these talents as he sees fit. This is where the organization comes in. Through organizations the freshman has a chance to express himself and to become recognized by others. It may be hard for him at first to adjust himself to the responsibility which is placed upon him, but later, as he becomes more capable, he works not only within the sphere of his group, but in cooperation with all other campus groups. Thus, as units, the organizations work individually for their own good and collectively for the better- ment of the college. Thus, also, the student adds his bit to the good of the organization for, by his enthusiasm and ideas, the organization is a func- tioning and ever-changing group. Democracy characterizes the organization. Each individual, through the medium of an organization, is afforded an equal opportunity to progress and grow through work and service; and in turn make his University grow also. Every personality on the campus can find an organization in which there are people with his same outlooks and same interest in affairs. These activities pro- vide sources of development for an individual ' s creative instincts, his natural talents, and his ability to do his work with others and gain the benefits of 96 working in coooperation. Because of these factors the individual will not only gain the benefits of an organization in his four years of college life but he will also reap his rewards even later when he is facing the serious business of living. Here at Duke University there are organizations which are open to student membership without competition. However as in all other colleges and universities there are honorary fraternities which recognize outstanding abilities in some specific field. Omicron Delta Kappa, the leaders on West Campus; White Duchy, the outstanding co-eds; Beta Omega Sigma, Sandals, Phi Eta Sigma, Ivy, Phi Beta Kappa, and Phi Kappa Delta are just a few of the many honoraries which continue to exemplify quality and to encourage higher goals among the students of the University. These honoraries form an incentive to the student to make the most of his latent and inherent abilities. Through them he becomes more than just a cog in the machinery for he has attained maturity through his self-assertion. These honoraries are the van- guard of progress for the campus as a whole. However, whether the organization be honorary or not, it needs the students and the students need it. As long as there are worthwhile organizations on a college or university campus, that school will produce graduates who are truly educated in living. A.S.M.E. The Duke Student Branch of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers was first conceived in the minds of Professor R. S. Wilbur, Head of the M.E. Department, and a small number of students in the fall of 1 934. An application was made to the National Society for a charter. The group proved its sincerity of purpose and in the fall of 1 935, the charter was made permanent. The objectives of this organization are: (1) to broaden the student ' s acquaintance with the prac- tical side of Mechanical Engineering. (2) to give each student the journal of the Society and thereby keep him informed about engineering progress and to make available the Library depositories of the Society. (3) to develop the student ' s initiative and ability to speak in public, and to familiarize him with the parliamentary procedure and organization of learned societies. (4) to enable the student to establish fraternal contact with his fellow students in engineering, both at his Alma Mater and at other colleges, and to meet graduate engineers en- gaged in the active practice of mechanical en- gineering. During the war period, the normal operating methods have been sufficientiy modified in many respects, due to the limitations imposed by the accelerated programs and travel conditions. Even though these conditions existed, the activity of this organization never reached a low level. Promi- nent figures in engineering have been present at the meetings and discussed many interesting sub- jects, and inspection trips have been to nearby engineering projects. The present officers of the A.S.M.E. are N. M. Love, president; R. E. Bisbe, vice president; L. Winitsky, secretary; R. H. France, treasurer. The Honorary Chairman is Professor F. M. Reed. This year, students have not been able to attend the meetings of the National Society, but arrange- ments are being made now for making such trips possible. The membership has been steadily in- creasing this year due to the new influx of students registered in Mechanical Engineering. The highest membership at the present time stands at seventy- one active members, but with the steady increase members feel that this will very soon be outdone. During the past year, the Society has been visited by Mr. R. N. McGee, representative of the Jones and Laughlin Steel Corporation, and others spon- sored by the three engineering societies jointly lectured to their assembled members. Movies on educational subjects were presented regularly such as, Tornado in a Box, Steel and its Processing, Diesel, the Modern Power and Progress through Engineering. Among the inspection trips was the visit to the Power Plant at Chapel Hill. The meetings of this organization are held on the second and fourth Tuesday of each month. To gain membership, the student must be at least a 97 sophomore registered in Mechanical Engineering. No honorary memberships are given, since this organization includes all mechanical engineers from students to senior members actually in the field. With the realization of its aims, the Branch will serve as the stepping stone between college work and that of a professional engineer. A.I.E.E. The Duke University Student Branch of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers was organized by Professor Walter J. Seeley in 1927, when he applied to the national organization for a charter. Since that time the organization has gready increased its membership as well as the activities in which it takes part. The main objectives of the Student Branch are to acquaint the student engineers with both the practical and theoretical phases of engineering, and to keep the members informed on the latest devel- opments in the field of engineering. These aims are realized by holding meetings during which students as well as faculty members and profes- sional engineers talk to the group on topics that are not only educational but also interesting. Oc- casionally, inspection trips are conducted to places of engineering interest. The Branch held its traditional lab party in As- bury Building in August. The party was held in honor of the eighteenth anniversary of the organi- zation. Suitably decorated labs filled with elec- trical oddities provided the guests with consider- able amusement. Other entertainment included dancing, novel lab games, and both quartet and community singing. In September an inspection trip was conducted through the Eno River Power Plant, a subsidiary steam plant of the Duke Power System. The group was shown the path of the energy supply in a steam plant and the electrical circuit was traced from the generator through the switchboard, cir- cuit breakers, and to the lines of the Duke Power System. The Duke Branch attended the 1945 fall meet- ing of the North Carolina Section of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, which was held in Raleigh in November. The meeting consisted of the presentation of several technical papers by members of the Institute, an inspection tour through the Navy Diesel School at North Carolina State College, and a dinner at the Carolina Hotel. A.S.C.E. The purpose of the Duke University Student Branch of the American Society of Civil Engineers is to further the advancement and di ssemination of knowledge of the theory and practice of civil engi- neering and the proper perspective of engineering work. The Duke Branch was formed in 1932 for the purpose of petitioning the head office in New York for the establishment of a chapter here. The peti- tion was approved, and on January 16, 1933, the society became official under the leadership of George B. Cropper as Chairman and John M. Bird as secretary. From that day forward A.S.C.E. has enlarged and expanded its membership by leaps and bounds. A.S.C.E. has presented for the benefit of its mem- bers speakers from the civil engineering profession. Another phase of the extra-curricular program of the society is the arrangement of inspection trips to points of engineering interest within the state. These provide for the students opportunities for first-hand inspection of their profession in action. The group makes two such trips a semester. This year the trips took them to the Wilmington Ship Yards and the Greensboro Water Supply Plan In addition, the Civil Engineers are active so- cially, operating on the sound principle that all work and no play makes Jack — or Jill — a dull per- son. To counteract any such eventuality, they sponsor a banquet twice a year. Also, this year they have inaugurated the Bird Roast. On this occasion the members and the faculty of the Civil Engineering Department meet together at an in- formal dinner. The purpose of the gathering is to give the students an opportunity to rib the faculty in revenge. The society, whose only requirement is upper- classman standing in the College of Engineering, has as its officers this year E. C. Credle, president; J. T. Rowe, vice president; D. K. Lockhart, secre- tary-treasurer. The advisers are Professor H. C. Bird and Mr. H. W. Kulfgner. ENGINEER ' S CLUB In March 1945 when the engineers moved from Southgate to the peace and seclusion of West Cam- pus, a new page was added to the glorious past of engineering at Duke. At that time, the E.S.G.A. became associated with the S.G.A. to form the M.S.G.A., but feeling the need of a separate organ- ization in which the engineers, acting as a group, could further their activities on the campus and stimulate an interest in engineering, the Engineer ' s Club was organized. Jim Kelly served as co- president of the M.S.G.A. and president of the newly formed Engineer ' s Club. To him goes much of the credit for its initial success. The semester of July to November 1945 saw John Imhoff become the new Prexy with Hoyle Wilson, vice president and Alvin Murphy as sec- retary-treasurer. During this period, the slide- rule boys, displaying their traditional engineering spirit, marched to the Navy-Duke football game en masse to the tune of hoarse voices, loud laughter and ringing bells and sirens. Following the game, the Midshipmen were invited to attend the gay ball sponsored by the Engineer ' s Club. The soft music, the right kind of spirit after a close game and the beauty of the girls furnished a perfect atmos- phere and once again the engineers scored another success. Al Murphy took the reins in November 1945 with Ray Dunasiki as vice president and Harold Becker acting as secretary-treasurer. By this time the Engineer ' s Club proudly boasted a membership of well over 200 active members. The dawning of the new year saw the club, in conjunction with the various honorary engineering societies, sponsor a Freshmen meeting. The officers of the honorary fraternities and societies were on hand to give short talks regarding the future of engineering and the entrance requirements of their organizations. The prospective engineers were introduced to their future professors and in many ways aided in their individual problems. Undoubtedly, the best ball of the year which is, as usual, sponsored by the engineers, took place on January 12, 1946. The crowning of the glamorous, curvacious Miss Slide Rule of ' 46 was the main event of the evening. For the first time, the engineers had elected their own queen, Miss Margie Smith of Alexandria, Va. with a stEir-studded court consisting of Misses Peggy Forehand of Albany, Ga. and Bess Williams of Durham as attendants. KAPPA DELTA PI Since May 29, 1927, Kappa Delta Pi has func- tioned on this campus as an active honorary frater- nity in the field of education. The Duke contingent, known as Alpha Tau Chapter, was established by T. C. McCracken. Kappa Delta Pi has a four-point program of aims. It strives to promote a closer bond among students of education; to foster high stardards of preparation for teaching; to invite into bonds of fellowship those who have attained excellence of scholarship and distinction of achievement; and to produce teachers who are interested in the welfare and well-being of the nation and of the individual people who make up the citizenry. The membership is composed of juniors and seniors from the undergraduate school, who have completed a required number of hours in education and undergraduate psychology with at least a 2.00 quality point average; graduate students with at least nine hours of graduate work in the field of education; and faculty members who have taught in the field of higher education for at least three consecutive years. Kappa Delta Pi has this year been especially in- terested in conducting open-forum discussions. At one meeting a discussion on Universal Compulsory Military Training was held, l ed by an army official and members of the faculty. They have also had addresses and lectures given by prominent faculty members at the monthly meetings, thereby establishing closer contact between the students and their faculty. The value of Kappa Delta Pi to the campus can not be over-estimated. Its true worth may be attributed to its promotion and encouragement of interest in intellectual fields, especially in education. The members as individuals benefit by gaining intelligent insight into current-day problems. This is perhaps one of the most obvious factors which is overlooked often in the training of the present day college student and organizations like Kappa Delta Pi are highly important in this phase of education. 99 The fraternity key is a gold scroll bearing the emblem of the bee-hive and the Greek letters of the fraternity. The colors are jade and violet. The national publication of Kappa Delta Pi is The Educational Forum, a magazine containing articles on subjects of current interest in the field of edu- cation written by contemporary members. The club has had a most successful year, aided by the enthusiasm of the individual club members and the excellent leadership of the officers, who were Lucie Mae Oakes, president; Emma Jean Pace, vice president; Naldi Poe, secretary; Sara Jordan, treasurer; and Betty A. Beggs, historian- reporter. Mr. John W. Carr, Jr. has served faith- fully as counselor to the group. CHI DELTA PHI Chi Delta Phi, national honorary literary so- ciety for women, wzis founded at the University of Tennessee in 191 9. Zeta chapter was established at Duke in 1922. Its aims are to encourage inter- est in literature and creative work in the fields of writing — poetry, the short story, the essay. It was also founded to accord recognition to those g irls whose interest in letters is outstanding as shown through their participation in activities such as work on campus publications. Requirements for membership are an obvious interest in literature and ability in creative writing. The new policy, incorporating journalism and campus publications, has shown itself in invitations to girls who are outstanding in publications, though not necessarily creative. Also at many meetings we are privileged to have as speakers faculty members from the English department and guest spezikers from the literary field. In these ways we have the benefit of friendly and expert criticism to aid us in improving our own style of writing. This year we enjoyed the opportunity of occasional meetings with the Chi Delta Phi chapter of the University of North Caro- lina. Through these meetings the Zeta members met and talked with some of Chapel Hill ' s men and women of letters, among whom were Betty Smith and James Street. In March Chi Delta Phi entertained the mem- bers of the English Department at a coff ' ee. A program of literary entertainment was given. This social was a part of the society ' s plan for closer integration with the faculty. Officers for this year are Margaret Thorne, president; Ann Smoot, vice president; Marjorie Clute, secretary; Carolyn Brimberry, treasurer; Jacquine Carter, marshal. Members are Emily Anderson, Beatrice Gross, Ann HeflFner, Olive Lanham, Ann Lockhart, Kay Mayers, Dora Meriss, Bobbie Roberts. New members are Betsy Chapman, Edith Chelimer, Sue Bowmall, Virginia Gunn, Jean Kiley, Barbara Pearse, Lib Shanley, and Frances Wright. TAU PSI OMEGA It all started back in 1938 with Mr. and Mrs. Neal Dow and a group of interested students. Now Tau Psi Omega, fostered by the Alpha Chapter at Duke, has expanded to include chapters at the Uni- versity of North Carolina, Woman ' s College in Greensboro, and Northwestern University. The aim of the national honorary French frater- nity is to further interest in the language and culture of France and to provide a means whereby students interested in speaking French may have the oppor- tunity to do so. Requirements for initiation into the fraternity are a year of college French or the equivalent with a B average or better and the abil- ity to speak the language. In addition to the bi-weekly business and social meetings, the chapter entertains at open houses for non-members. A French Dinner is held every Tuesday night in the Woman ' s Union, at which time nothing but French is spoken. Although the war has lessened the activities of the fraternity to some degree, it has opened oppor- tunities that might not have been available other- wise. Two dances and two picnics were arranged with the French Naval Air Cadets in Chapel Hill, which enabled the members to become acquainted with the language from a native ' s tongue. One of the most interesting projects of the organization is the adoption of two French refugee children, to whom packages of food and clothing are sent each month. With this year ' s membership of twenty-three outstanding students, Tau Psi Omega intends to 100 expand on this campus as well as the others men- tioned. Their goal — to promote interest in Franc e, its people and its language — has been realized in the activities which Tau Psi Omega has undertaken. This rapidly growing organization is under the capable leadership of Amy Franklin, president; Carmen Huntsman, vice president; Helen Merc- ner, secretary; Georia Brahany, treasurer; and Mr. and Mrs. Neal Dow, advisers, who have given most generously of their time and guiding wisdom. SIGMA DELTA PI At home south of the border is the motto of Sigma Delta Pi. The nine-year old Alpha Theta chapter at Duke has been most instrumental in laying a Spanish atmosphere over the campus. Membership in the fraternity is only granted to students who have an average of 2.0 quality points per semester hour through their third year college Spanish, and a general scholastic average of 1.5 quality points in all subjects taken to date. Over and above this, members elected must have an active enthusiasm for things Hispanic. Member- ship, therefore, is open not only to students-in- course but also to scholars recognized as earnest- ly interested supporters of Hispanic culture. The purposes of the fraternity are to foment a wider knowledge of and a greater love for Hispanic contributions to modern culture; to stimulate a greater interest therein on the part of the students at Duke University; to foster friendly relations and a cooperative spirit between the n ations of Hispanic speech and of English speech; and to recognize special attainments and interests in this field. Meetings are held on the average of two a month, one as an open house for interested students, the other an informal fraternity affair in which mem- bers meet in the Union for supper with conversation strictly limited to Spanish. The officers for the present year, 1945- 1946, are: President, Pat Ward; Vice President, Peggy Klotz; Secretary-Treasurer, Naldi Poe; and Social Chair- man, Lois Hanlon. Protocol Secretary is Mrs. A. K. Manchester. Honorary members include the following faculty members: A. M. Weeb, G. Davis, W. R. Quynn, F. A. Bridgers, Isabel de Guerra, J. T. Reid, B. Lemert, J. T. Lanning, E. R. Latty, William Gib- son, Louise Hall, A. K, Manchester, S. E. Leavitt, and F. Gill (U.N.C.). The faculty sponsor is Dr. Clav Lundeberg, pro- fessor of Romance languages here at Duke. Mrs. W. P. Dillingham, also a language professor, has served as an adviser to the chapter. COMMODORES ' CLUB The Commodores ' Club, outstanding for its annual NROTC Ball at which time the Navy Queen is crowned, is a social organization for the purpose of providing varied social activities for the naval personnel attached to the NROTC Unit, This year ' s ball was highlighted by the coronation of Miss Buffa Garrett as queen of the unit. Another most prominent activity of the Conmio- dores ' Club is the publication of The Dolphin, a periodical apropos to both the humerous and se- rious side of navy life. This title. The Dolphin, was carried over to the NROTC yearbook which made its first appearance in 1945 with the graduation of the November class. The colorful traditions of graduation, on a small scale Annapolis scheme, continue to command the limelight year after year. At a Stag Banquet at the Washington Duke Hotel, the graduating class is presented their ensign bars. On this occasion, the entire unit with station force and officers are pres- ent. Beginning last year, the new ensigns were honored at a dance at Hope Valley, following the commissioning ceremonies. During the war and continuing since the peace was signed, the Commodores ' Club has been fully cooperative in all campus activities on the social calendar. The members held Sports Night and successfully conducted a Sunday Night Sing. Useful as well as decorative certainly applies to the Commodores ' Bloc and its 800 members; for 101 ever since its birth in 1942 the expansion in membership has been in correlation to the increjise in prestige. Officers for the past year were; Tom J. Scahill, president; R. D. Plunkett, vice president; F. J. Bruck, secretary; T. G. Brackenwager, treasurer; and W. J. Farren, social chairman. FLEET CLUB An aggregation of Caost Guardsmen, Sea Bees, and Navy men who have fought from batde stations in the Atlantic and Pacific theaters is the salt of the campus, the Fleet Club. Its aim, the promotion of social functions which serve to build good fellow- ship and character, has manifested itself in the past the Fleet Club has played in bolstering campus spirit and cooperating with other organizations. This liaison group has united the men of the fleet under the banner of common problems and ad- justments. Socially, the Fleet Club has offered its men fun and frolic with dzmces, smokers, and cabin parties. Under the founding and guiding genius of Lt. (jg) J. A. Redding as Honorary Skipper, Chief J. O. Gant as Honorary Executive, and adviser. Dean Alan K. Manchester, the organization has changed gavel wielders a number of times. Chief executive this year is R. I. Brooks, Jr. Under him are executive R. F. Kleist; ship ' s writer B. A. Woods; and paymaster J. P. Bennett. The Fleet Club functions through its active com- mittees. The duty of one of the committees is the publication of a Dope Sheet, under the editor- ship of E. E. Simon. Living up to its purpose in making the club organization is the committee on public relations. Founded in March 1944, as a social organiza- tion, the Fleet Club has as another of its aims that of avoiding participation in campus activities of a political nature unless they further the interest of the organization. This aim helps to emphasize the purpose of the Club, for it is their desire to keep the Fleet Club as a purely sociad organization and not connect it in any way with the political aspects of the University. In doing this, the Fleet Club has tended to resenble a fraternity in that it pro- motes good fellowship and strengthens group spirit. The Duke boys that came from the Fleet feel that they have something in common, and it was be- cause of this feeling that the Fleet Club was or- ganized; they wanted this feeling to materialize into something concrete. And the Fleet Club has been the answer. SOCIAL STANDARDS Instituted as an integral part of student gov- enmient, the Social Standards Committee is unique in compairison with the regulatory bodies on other Woman ' s College campuses in its maintenance of the strict social traditions that are ascribed to Duke. Outsiders have frequentiy commented on the charming appearance and behavior of Duke co-eds, a compliment which can be attributed to the work of the Social Standards Committee throughout the years. Its purpose is two-fold: first, that it adopt certain standards to become an integral part of the life of Duke women, and second, that it promote social activity on the campus. On Thanksgiving Eve, the Committee sponsors the annual Co-ed Ball. This year Miss Peggy Otto was crowned Chanticleer Queen by Business manager Jim Proctor, following the figure. Each year after the Ball, Committee members and their escorts are served breakfast in Brown House parlor. At the beginning of the year, Social Standards sponsored a series of freshmen and upperclassmen dances with the appealing keynote of informality and friendliness. These dances served to acquaint Dukesters not only with each other, but with the kind of atmosphere that belongs to Duke social life. In December the Committee published a cal- endar for 1946 with scenes of Duke campus on every page. The proceeds go into a greater fund which is being used to buy an annual gift for the University. A handbook is distributed in the sum- mer, clarifying the standards which Duke women are expected to uphold . Social Standards has met and dealt wisely with many wartime problems. Now that restrictions have been lessened, the organization is expected to go forward at top speed in bringing about general improvement of campus life. This is being done this year under the capable leadership of Elizabeth Prather, chairman; Betty Jewell, vice chairman; 102 Margaret Gobbel, secretary; and Dee Todd, treas- urer. IVY COGS One of the more publicized groups on Duke campus is the College Organization for General Service. Established in 1 943 by Miss Mary Grace Wilson and Barbara Jordan, COGS went forward from that day on an all-out-for-victory campaign. The objectives of the organization are expressed in its name. During the war, COGS acted ais a coordinator of co-ed participation in war activities. Now COGS is undergoing reconversion and hopes to find more and more opportunities for campus service. Assuming its rightful position of leadership on the campus, COGS provides opportunities for co- eds to entertain soldiers at Camp Butner, it supports local and nationwide relief drives, and it encourages students to assist in the functions of such civic and campus organizations as the Office of Civilian De- fense and our own Alumni Office. Although their role in the winning of the victory has been played and played well, there is still a vast amount of work to be done by COGS members if peace is to be maintained. The postwar activities are too numerous to mention, but they include participation in all phases of socijd service work. Parties have been given for the ward patients at Butner, clothing drives have been conducted, and Duke women have given valiandy of their time to the Edgemont Community Center, Wright ' s Refuge, and the Durham Day Nursery. Girls who perform service such as this are re- warded in a material way by COGS. For the completion of a required number of hours of social service work per semester, a girl receives a COGS key. Under the efficient guidance of Chairman Hard- ing Bochine is the Hub Committee, composed of Pat Hartz, vice chairman; Katherine Morrison, historian; and sponsor. Miss Mary Grace Wilson. Many other colleges and universities have seen the need for campus organizations such as COGS. Perhaps the Duke vanguard has started something that will be instrumental in the making of the peace we 2u-e seeking. In 1937, the women of the freshman class felt keenly the need for an organization at Duke Uni- versity that would promote a better understanding of what true education means. The objective is embodied in the honorary society of IVY whose purpo se is to stimulate intellectual curiosity among freshmen women and to encourage them to value the gaining of knowledge and the building of char- acter above mere earning of quality points. Although IVY is essentially an honorary society, it has taken its rightful place in college activities. The characteristic dress, white with green silk regalia, is seen at recitals, lectures, and at the formal opening of college in the fall. This year IVY presented a donation of the Alice M. Baldwin Scholarship Fund. According to the custom, the members entertained the B-average freshmen at a picnic in the Spring. This fall there was another social for the B-average fresh- man with Miss Clare Leighton as guest of honor. Those freshmen tapped into IVY must have a scholastic average of 2.25 quality points for every semester hour carried during her first semester or for her entire freshman year. In the public tapping service held last spring in the Woman ' s Auditorium, twenty-three freshman women were presented the IVY leaf, symbolizing the strength and wisdom they had necessarily displayed to be so honored. This same theme of the IVY leaf is repeated in the gold key worn by each member, which testifies that she has achieved one of the highest honors of her Fresh- man Class. IVY is proud of its history which proves that its purposes of guiding and inspiring freshmen in their work and showing them methods helpful to the se- curing of best results have been fulfilled. The officers of IVY this year were Jean Tommasi, president; Frances Bluhm, vice president; Margaret Carter, secretary; Dayne McGeehan, treasurer; Helen Gordon, reporter. PHI ETA SIGMA The national honorary. Phi Eta Sigma, whose purpose is to recognize and promote excellence in scholarship among first year men, was founded at the University of Illinois, in 1923 and instituted on 103 this campus in 1931. To be eligible for member- ship, a freshman must achieve an average of 2.25 for the first semester or 2.5 for the entire freshman year. Since the advent of the Navy program at Duke, the activities of Phi Eta Sigma have been necessarily curtailed. At present, however, it is undergoing a reactivation period in anticipation of a return to its full peacetime status. Plans include the awarding of a plaque to the freshman house making the high- est average and the presentation of a cup to the social fraternity whose pledge class excels in scholarship. The most important function of the fraternity is performed by its Freshman Scholastic Advisory Council. This council was formed to help fresh- men who are experiencing difficulty with their work. This service provides members of Phi Eta Sigma as advisers to first year men who apply for aid. On February 6, the annual banquet was held. Dr. Theodore Ropp of the history department spoke on the purpose of the University in the modern world. Dr. Alan K. Manchester, faculty adviser, explained to the new men the ideals and functions of Phi Eta Sigma in normal times. The officers of Phi Eta Sigma are: Carlton Flem- ing, president; Ted Moore, vice president; Fred Wagoner, secretary; and Lewis Hodgkins, treasurer. The members are: Melvin Berlin, Emmett Bradley, Ed Copenhaver, Noble David, Lewis Doggett, Bill Howe, George Irwin, Harold Jackson, Jack Kind- ler, Ed Magee, John Osborne, Dan Patterson, Ir- ving Polayes, Bob Ramsey, Lewis Shapero, John Shaw, Bill Shropshire, P. J. Thomas, Bob Wolf. SANDALS Sandals is to East what B.O.S. is to West. Ever since its emergence in 1 932 from the creative brain of W.S.G.A., Sandals has not only been the goal set by each freshman for herself but an organization with a reputation for untiring service. As a pro- gressive group. Sandals has fulfilled its purposes and motto of Service and Friendship. Twenty women are selected in an impressive tapping ceremony in the auditorium at the end of their freshman yezu-. They are chosen by the executive Committee of W.S.G.A., presidents of organizations, and house councilors as the girls who have manifested high qualities of scholarship, leadership, character, and service. Their appoint- ment not only results in the honor and reward for past accomplishment, but also the pledge to future service for the college. Sandals members have as their objective the pro- vision of an intermediary between Student Govern- ment and the student body, and they act as an organization with all energy directed toward the benefit of the campus. The embodiment of their service is their responsibility as hostesses in the Ark each weekly night, their assistance to new girls during the trying times of freshman week, and their duty of proctoring the freshman qualifying exams which are given early in the fall. In fact, the parts a Sandal plays are many and varied, often without verbal reward, but yet this organization has done much to aid student ease on the East Campus. During the year the Sandals have redecorated and furnished the downstairs room in the Ark, which they christened the Gay Nineties Room. Cider and doughnuts are served from a bar, and ping pong facilities are provided. Life for the Sandals is far from a lark. Freshman Week finds them carrying baggage for new girls, running errands for Student Government members, and giving moral support to the somewhat be- wildered newcomers. Another essential task assigned to them is checking attendance in as- semblies. The Keepers of the Ark celebrate every spring the exodus and advent of members with a banquet at the Washington Duke Hotel. At this time the old Sandals charge the new ones with their vital responsibility in maintaining the quality of service that is so traditional with the group. Sandals, whose officers were Marjorie Frey, president; Jo Anne Rae, vice president; Marian Pecot, secretary; and Polly Weedin, treasurer, have completed an unusually successful year under the constant supervision and guidance of Miss Dorothy Patton. BETA OMEGA SIGMA For its function in regulating freshman discipline and briefing the first year students in regard to 104 campus traditions, Beta Omega Sigma often has been referred to as the Bloody Order. In spite of the gory title, this national honorary sophomore leadership fraternity has been instrumental in bringing to the limelight of recognition men who have shown leadership ability and interest in extra- curricular activities during their freshman year. Ever since its founding in 1917 at Trinity Col- lege BOS has been the goal that all Duke fresh- men strive for. Wartime restrictions have limited the traditional activities of the organization. One of its most colorful functions is the handling of the annual homecoming celebration, which is expected to hit the old-time high now that everything is reverting to normal. During the past year, the members of BOS have sponsored several paper drives and a number of pre-game bonfires. The biggest and. most success- ful pep-rally of this past year was the BOS spon- sored pep-rally before the Carolina football game, when snake chains through Durham and to West campus were undertaken for the first time since before the war. In connection with its duties in the orientation of freshmen, BOS has conducted tours of the campus for new students. Collaborat- ing with the sister organization. Sandals, BOS opened up the Gay Nineties Room in the Ark. Each year at a dance given together with Sandals. BOS taps thirty new members, who are chosen on the basis of points given for participation in various activities and organizations. In this election a strong effort is made to eliminate campus politics. Officers from March to November of 1945 were Johimy Bortner, president; Duane Anderson, vice president; Marshall Spears, secretary; Jack Shehee, treasurer. Elected in November were the follow- ing: Jimmy Alexander, president; Bill Taylor, vice president; Gene Johnson, secretary; and Verne Rhodes, treasurer. YMCA Seeking to rebuild a high standard of Christian service on the Duke Campus, the Duke YMCA during the past year has presented a widely varied program of action. Its primary emphasis has been the development of Christian character and leader- ship among the students, offering them an oppor- tunity to put in to practice their own ideals, and thus continually seek to raise the level of student thinking and living. During the summer months, Duke students were informed of local news and gossip weekly by the Y-sponsored newspaper. This clever mimeo- graphed publication was edited this summer by Norris Hodgkins and termed the Gargoyle. Social life was maintained during the summer despite absence of the girls from East, with informal, in- expensive dances marking the pace. The climax of the semester was the Campus-night, an evening of fun and entertainment provided by talent groups from the Nurses ' homes and West Campus organi- zations. In fact, this talent show was deemed almost too good to be presented again at Duke. With the opening of the fall semester, the tempo of Y work increased rapidly. Working with the YWCA and other student organizations, Religious Emphasis Week was again presented on the campus, with Dr. Paul Wolfe as the principal speaker. Other programs of a religious nature included vespers, forums, discussions, and retreats. A grad- ual program of Sunday evening bull sessions led by prominent members of the faculty was begun, thus giving the students better opportunities to meet the profs informally. The fall and spring was marked by an equally well-balanced program of social activities. The Duke-Carolina football classic was fittingly followed by a Tobacco Ball, a campus wide barn yard style dance which met with such success as to be marked an annual affair on the Y calendar. Then there were the Dungaree Jamboree, the in- formal socials, and the square dances. Leisure time on the West Campus was continually filled with opportunities to engage in ping-pong tourna- ments, bridge and chess, with particular efforts made to bring the faculty into full participation. A new feature was the Y -sponsored Twilight Hour, consisting of campus concerts in the early evening hours. Recognizing a terrific need for a student-body well informed on national and international prob- lems, the Y distributed literature, including publications of the U. S. State Department, and sponsored forums on leading problems of the world. The Polity Club, having such activities as its express purpose, was reorganized under Y sponsorship, and is now ready to again emerge as an independ- ent campus organization. 105 Social services were a vital part of the program during the past year. The Edgemont Community center and Wright ' s Refuge were granted hberal financial support from the Y, with many Y men lending their efforts in the afternoon hours towards developing leaders among the under- priviledged children of Durham. Not stopping here, the Y participated in many campus wide drives aimed at bettering the lot of others around the world. These included the Christmas Seal Sales, Old Clothing Drive, and the WSSF drive. The latter was marked with campus-wide coop- eration, and, sponsored by the YMCA, it served to enable Duke Students to take a direct hand in the reconstruction and rehabilitation of foreign Universities wrecked by war. The Y took an extremely deep interest in the activities of the Freshmen throughout their first year at Duke, believing that it is in the Freshman year that future campus leaders find their beginning. The Freshman Y Cabinet proved more successful and active than it has for many years, and its suc- cess was culminated by a reestablishment of the Prewar Sophomore Y Cabinet. Thus the past year has seen the Y grow slowly and certainly. It has been reorganized and re- vitalized. Now, facing a future of campus service unhindered by the impediments of war, it stands ready for action as never before. It seeks no power, no prestige — The Duke Y continues to seek only one thing from the students — the opportunities and challenges which come in rendering to them a com- prehensive program of Christian service. The re-birth of the active YMCA has been under the energetic leadership of Myrlon Catling, presi- dent; Herman Roach, vice president; Foster Park, secretary; and Casper Holroyd, treasurer. B. Munro was acting president during the summer. YWCA The keynote of the Y begins with A for Active. This activity directs itself toward a multiple ob- jective: to lead students to faith in God through Jesus Christ; to lead them into membership and service in the Christian Church; to promote the growth in Christian faith and character especially through the study of the Bible; and to influence them to devote themselves in united effort with all Christians to making the will of Christ effective in human society and to extending the kingdom of God throughout the world. The statistical data as well as the great intangible effect of the YWCA has increased very much over last year. The membership has soared from 523 devotees to 863 which is quite a marked increase in enrollment. The total amount of money col- lected for the advancement of this organization, this year ' s, charity work fell only a little short of one thousand dollars. From the very beginning of freshman week the Y group proves itself in untiring service. Repre- sentatives meet all trains and buses bearing new- comers to Duke. The highlight of the Y year is always Religious Emphasis Week. Forums, lectures, and devotional services are held, presenting prominent leaders in religious education to the campus. This year, too, the World Student Service Fund drive went over in a big way through well-handled publicity and approach to each indi- vidual student for contributions The Y Board acts as an over-all coordinating group, uniting the chairmen of all the committees and the presidents of the Sophomore and Junior Y divisions under a greater body of officers. This official circle is headed by Althea Hill, presi- dent; Sara Jordan, vice president; Nancy Wenger, secretary; and Nancy McCrummen, treasurer. Just as a tree is made of its branches, the Y is made of its committees. Lyn Smith, as head of the Freshman Discussion Group, thinks that pro- moting acquaintances outside the classroom is vitally necessary. Jane Meriweather is editor of the T Keep-Up, an informative publication that gives the campus a look at what the Y is doing. The Social Service Committee under Jayne Ritchey is a challenge for everyone who likes to serve. Encouraged by this committee, many girls have worked in Duke Hospital where they help the staff by taking case histories of clinic patients and read- ing to the children on the wards. At the Durham Day Nursery they plan recreational programs and aid with play periods for children whose parents work and have no one to look after their offsprings during the day. This practice which is followed in so many large cities is an invaluable one to working parents. It is also highly beneficial for children who are sometimes rather underprivi- 106 ledged. Jayne Ritchey and her committee have undertaken and fulfilled this, perhaps the greatest obligation to community welfare that is offered to students of Duke University. For display of active interest and willingness to help, girls are chosen to the Sophomore Y Com- mission and the Junior Y Council. This year the Sophomore Y Commission was under the leadership of Jane Bruce, president; Winn Kern, vice president; Lila Magruder, secre- tary; Helen Mercner, treasurer. Miss Dorothy Dale, Bassett house counselor, is adviser. The annual Sophomore Y Fair was cancelled this year because of the flu epidemic, but they trans- ferred their energies elsewhere. They presented a variety of Christmas gifts to the janitors ' children. Socially they have been on the alert with a series of dances, first for Navy boys and then for veterans. The Junior Y Council, organized for the pur- pose of aiding the Y in any way, has grown famous for its sponsorship of the Devil ' s Den. This grew out of a need for some form of Sunday night entertainment to follow the weekly sings. The Ark is arranged night-club fashion, and mem- bers of the council don aprons to serve soft drinks and doughnuts to the customers. At the half- way mark there is a floor show of comedy or musi- cal entertainment. Officers at the helm this year were: Muriel McDermott, president; Ginny Campbell, vice presi- dent; Carolyn Jean Johnson, secretary; Barbara Pearse, treasurer. The activities of the Y are many. The mem- bership is large, and the work which they accom- plish is far-reaching, but its varied activities are co- ordinated into one unit of service. Under the direction of the committee and commission heads, each girl performed tasks of service to the com- munity as well as to the college — a work for which they should be commended. MEN ' S F.A.C. Adopting an ante-bellum motto of Back to the old days, the Men ' s Freshman Advisory Council has attempted to make this year one of transition to the prewar Duke days. This policy was in con- junction with that of the S.G.A., realizing itself in part through the sale of dinks to freshmen. The return of the dink is a more noticable sign of re- conversion, and it heralds a complete changeover. The Freshman Advisory Council was established in the college year of 1938-39, under the auspices of the Duke University YMCA for the purpose of making available to all new men on campus, both Navy and Civilian, the knowledge and experience of those who have passed through those trying days of the Freshman year. The Council offers aid in campus orientation; helps the student if need be in his scholastic Aid Committee; and materially assists the newly orientated student in choosing and beginning work in his extra-curricular activities. Relatively speaking, the F.A.C. is a new organi- zation, but one that has become of increasingly great importance to the campus, carrying on even during wartime on a slightly static basis, molding its organization to fit the new speed-up schedule, but still attempting to aid the entering student in every way possible. This organization has been invaluable in giving the freshmen students the right start at Duke University. Relative to this are the F.A.C.-sponsored dance and open houses during and after freshman week. The scope of F.A.C. also reaches out to encompass the academic as well as the social life of the new students. During the past year an attempt has been made to return to the system that was maintained prior to the introduction of the Navy schedule. This system provided for House Captains, whose duty was to conduct sepzirate meetings of house groups to discuss specific problems. 107 The requirements for membership in the Fresh- man Advisory Council are: first, a genuine interest in aiding new students to know their school; second the maintenance of a satisfactory scholastic stand- ing and approval by a board composed of officers of the organization. Chief reconverters for F.A.C. this past year were the officers: Robert D. Plunkett, president; Ray Cross, vice president; Douane Anderson, secretary and_,treasurer. WOMEN ' S F.A.C. Dressed in white and supplied with name tags, black notebooks, and answers to any and all quest- ions, the members of the Freshmen Advisory Coun- cil lend a helping hand to the new coe-ds, not only during Freshmen Week, but all through the year. This, an honorary group, is selected on the basis of leadership, character, ability, and interest. The Council was chosen in March and was under the direction of Miss Mary Moss Welborn. Ar- riving in October, Miss Ellen Huckabee has as- sumed the duties of the Council adviser. From her first hours at Duke, each freshman girl finds in her adviser a girl always willing to help v dth adjustments and adaptations to college life and also, a sincere and interested friend. The Freshman Advisory Council is an important part of the campus, since it is a student organization which contacts the freshmen directly through understanding and equality. The friendship that exists between the adviser and her freshmen is of the utmost importance to the new co-ed and one that will be remembered by both long after college days are over. The opening of Southgate Hall as a women ' s dormitory has necessitated an enlargement of the council from 32 to 39 members. In the spring, the Women ' s Student Government Association, feeling the need for closer contact between the Student Council and the Freshman Advisory group, voted the Chairman of the Advisory Council an ex-officio member to the Student Council. Through the training period in the spring and regular meetings throughout the year, the members are able to offer suggestions and improvements for the coming year. The purpose of the Freshman Advisory Council is to establish a lasting sense of loyalty, honor, and responsibility in each individual student; and to instill in each freshman, a feeling of warmth and close attachment that is the character- istic spirit of Duke. STUDENT FORUM In 1 933 two enthusiastic Duke women recognized the need for personal acquaintance with some of our contemporary artists and intellects of the Student Forum originally established to bring speakers to the college community in order to provide addi- tional sources of cultural and intellectual advance- ment. The committee has become one of the higher recognitions for outstanding seniors. Although the importance of Student Forum is its service to students and townspeople, another ad- vantage is the contact the members have with the celebrities brought to our campus. It is the duty, or rather the privilege, of the Stu- dent Forum Committee to be responsible for meet- ing the speakers, finding them a place to stay, and in general making their stay at Duke as pleasant as possible. In addition to presenting speakers, the project of the committee was to conduct polls on subjects of vital interest to Duke women. Student-faculty forums were also inaugurated in the hope of some consequent action, if needed and desired. This idea has apparently reaped benefits for both factions. On the program schedule for this year have been Miss Ruth Draper, internationally famous solo- dramatist, Donald P. Adams, and Nora Wain. In order to present the worthwhile programs that are traditional with the Student Forum, a charge is made of each student at the beginning of the year, with which all expenses must be met. This enables people outside the student body and fac- ulty to have the opportunity of hearing prominent speakers. This year ' s successful functions have been under the direction of Viginia Suiter as chairman. Other members of the committee were: Lois Ritch, Peggy Otto, Barbara Smith, Jane Meriweather, and Nancy Wenger. These girls have found it to be a very worthwhile experience to contact and meet some of the outstanding men and women speakers of our country. 108 MUSIC STUDY CLUB The Music Study Club, now in its thirteenth year, has for its aim the encouragement of musical appreciation and musical activity. It provides a medium through which those with ability may ex- press their talent and those with sincere interest may participate in the part which music plays on the university campus. The club ' s membership of fifty is chosen on the basis of this common interest in music; one need not be a performing artist to apply for admission. With the coming of peace the university as a whole is able to direct its energies to the develop- ment of the arts for which peace and freedom are essential. It has been possible for the women of the university to keep alive this interest in the liberal arts through troubled times. In the days ahead the Music Study Club hopes to continue to play a larger part in the growing musical life of the university and of the community. The activities of the club, in keeping with its aim, lead to a fuller understanding as well as a real and true enjoyment of music. Meetings are held in the Music Room of East Duke building twice a month. The first meeting of the month this year was devoted to a program which follows the topics of the university concert series; the second has generally been dedicated to business. Among the projects which the club undertook this year was a student recital presenting Nancy MacMurtrie, lyric soprano, and Louise Dabbs, pianist, on November 20 in the auditorium of the Woman ' s College. On December 14 the club en- tertained at a Christmas party for members and their dates in the President ' s Clubroom. On January 1 1 the club sponsored the concert of Lubo- shutz and Nemonoff, brilliant duo-pianist, in con- nection with the Duke concert series. The con- cert was followed as is customary by a reception for these artists held by the Music Study Club in one of the parlors in the East Duke building. Another student recital and a banquet were planned and carried out for the spring season. The last meeting of the year was a tea at which the many talented members of the organization performed. Much of the Music Study Club ' s success this year has been due to its capable leadership. Rep- resentatives from each house on campus and the officers comprise the executive board. The club brought to a close a year of accomplishment under the guidance of the following officers: Velma Jayne Ritchey, president; Bluma Kafka, vice president; Lois Delong, recording secretary; Ruth Fike, corre- sponding secretary; Constance Merrill, treasurer. Miss Evelyn Barnes and Mrs. J. Foster Barnes are the faculty advisers. MEN ' S GLEE CLUB Duke ' s first postwar Glee Club has shaped up into one of the most successful organizations on Campus. From last year ' s group of sixty, it has grown to a membership of a hundred and twenty- five. Under the able leadership of J. Foster Barnes, who has been training Duke voices for sixteen years, the men gave a full schedule of excellent concerts. Bishop Barnes selected fifty men for the home concert in late February, and thirty-seven of this group traveled to Southern Pines, North Carolina; Salem College, Winston-Salem, North Carolina; Greensboro College, Greensboro, North Carolina, and several other towns for performances. The highlight of the tour was the presentation of their tenth annual broadcast over a large network from New York City. In addition to their work as an individual unit, selected members of the Men ' s Glee Club join picked members of the Women ' s Glee Club to make up the well-known Chapel Choir which sings for every Sunday morning service. This year, as in previous years, Bishop directed the Choir in an outstanding Christmzistime performance of Han- del ' s Messiah. This is an annual event at Duke, which students and townspeople zdike look forward to every year. It is as essential to the Christmas spirit as are decorated trees and gay packages. Thousands of people filled the chapel and part of Page Auditorium to hear the Choir. The perform- ance was so well received that the Choir was invited to repeat it in January for the enlisted men of Camp Pickett, Virginia. On Palm Sunday and Easter Sunday, the Choir presented Gounod ' s Redemption in the Chapel, cli- maxing the Glee Club ' s nineteenth year of provid- ing Duke students with the best in music. The 1946 officers are as follows: Aldrick North- 109 rup, Jr., President; Jack Logue, Vice President; David Black, Secretary and Treasurer; Tom Pace, Business Manager; and E. H. Nease, Jr., Student Director. WOMEN ' S GLEE CLUB The Women ' s Glee Club is East ' s counterpart of the men ' s music organization. Since 1925, it has enlarged steadily, keeping pace with the increasing enrollment of the University. This year, under the direction of Mrs. J. Foster Barnes, who organ- ized the original Glee Club, 150 music-loving girls met every Tuesday evening to participate in the group ' s activities. One of the main purposes of the Club is to provide a training ground for the Chapel Choir. Approximately seventy-five girls become members of the Choir, which this year pre- sented Handel ' s Messiah and a nativity pageant at Christmas, and Gounod ' s Redemption at Easter. The whole Glee Club was invited to accompany the Choir on two trips to Camp Pickett, Virginia, to sing special programs there. During the war emergency, a picked group of nine girls and their accompanist, the Triple Trio, gave many performances in bond shows, Durham U.S.O.s, and weekly at Camp Butner. Especially appreciated were these trips to Camp Butner, where the girls really went all out to entertain the hospitalized patients that are confined to the Camp. Many letters of thank-you ' s have been received from the boys who appreciate this extra service of the Triple Trio. The Trio has also devoted much time to preparing selections that they sang at va- rious Sunday-night Sings throughout the year. It was at these Sings that both East and West cam- pus realized what a truly fine trio they had on the campus. Strictly on the social side, the Women ' s Glee Club held two cabin parties, one in the fall and another in the spring. All the musical organiza- tions on campus joined to sponsor a spring formal dance, which was one of the biggest social functions of the season. The Club has really come a long way in its twenty-one years and promises to do even bigger and better things in the coming years. Officers for 1946 are as follows: Charlene Parker, president; Beatrice Gross, vice president; Nancy MacMur- trie, treasurer; Gloria Brahaney, secretary. DUKE PLAYERS Duke Players is perhaps the major division in the Duke world behind the footlights. Its member- ship of seventy-two this year is conposed of students who have completed a required number of hours. This is an entirely amateur organization with student-supervised setting, lighting, and make-up. Dramatic direction and over-all supervision is in the capable hands of Professor A. T. West. With a record number of students appearing for try-outs this year, Duke Players hopes to take ad- vantage of the interest and also the alleviation of wartime restrictions and return next year to the prewar program of at least four major productions a year. Now that Hoof ' n Horn has apparently become a permanent fixture at Duke, the Players have an opportunity to expand the range of their work. They have eagerly lent their talent to the musical comedy productions thereby integrating Duke showmen into close strong harmony. This is a very desirable relationship existant between what could be rival groups of show-bugs. Last year ' s Song of Bernadette, which was pre- sented by Duke Players in its southern college pre- miere, was accorded a magnificent success. Martha Yokely turned in a praiseworthy performance as Bernadette and Pop West himself graced the pro- duction after many years ' absence from the stage. This production will long be remembered by Duke audiences as one of the masterpieces of the Duke Players ' art. Snafu was first on this year ' s bill of plays. Leads were handled by Al Sugarman, Cacky Crowell, Pop West, and Neno Lane. The plot involves the struggle of a returning soldier to adjust himself to civilian life over which is laid a somewhat satirical humor. This show was taken to ORD in Greens- boro after its presentation here. March brought the production. Blithe Spirit, a comedy of fantasy which was a tremendous hit on Broadway and which travelled subsequently to Hollywood for filming. Margaret Throne, a Duke stage veteran, Jean Rogers, Mary Alice Wineland, and Loraine Moore were cast to fill four of the leads. 110 Duke Players has ano ther more serious show scheduled to hit the stage sometime in the late spring, but as yet the details have not been released. One of the aims of Duke Players is to take their productions on the road, just as they did Snafu. The demand is great in the surrounding army camps, and the experience as a touring show com- pany is valuable to the participants. Another plan of the group is to exchange productions with the Carolina Playmakers of Chapel Hill. Inaugurating the system of giving freshmen an opportunity to act, Duke Players has sponsored the one-act plays given at the Faculty Club dinner. Two were produced this year with student directed, all-freshman casts. The ultimate aim of Duke Players is to use this as a training ground for the bigger productions. Duke Players as an organization is intricate in composition. The stage crew is of prime impor- tance, but is often overlooked when the bouquets are being handed out. Every set used by Duke Players is completely designed, constructed and set up by members of the organization. All this is hard work, but the stage crew for Duke Players is known for having more fun than any other group on campus. Also essential to production are costumes, prop- erties, make-up and lighting. The properties committee must see that all properties are procured, placed, and made available on short notice when opening night arrives. The make-up and costume committees work hand in hand in their job of trans- forming the actors into the characters of the play. Very few people realize the importance of lights in creating the desired effect. The interplay of foots, spots, borders, and baby spots is a complicated affair, and the electrician does a commendable job. All work and no play does not apply to Duke Players. They entertained themselves at a cabin party on January 12, and a farewell banquet was given at Harvey ' s for the graduating president, Sandy Techlin. The Sunday Night Sing on January 6 was sponsored by Duke Players, at which time they gave a cross-section view of just what does go on behind the stage. Officers for 1945-46 were: Sandy Techlin, president; Mary Beattie, vice president; Judy Smith, secretary; Verne Rhoads, business manager; and Peggy Klotz, coed business manager. BENCH AND BAR The Bench and Bar Society, after almost three year ' s absence from campus, was reorganized late in 1944 and continued, through this year, its pro- gram of regaining its old prominence on campus. Because of the postwar renewed interest in the study of law, its membership mounted to its old number, and its activity increased. The Society was led the first semester by a three- member board made up of Bill Fairy, Mickey McDermott, and Audrey Shumaker. The con- stitution was revised during the year, and a new governing system set up. Dave Taylor, president, wielded the gavel second semester, assisted by Mickey McDermott, vice president; Tim Warner, secretary and Mary Ellen McCarthy, treasurer. The faculty adviser. Dr. John S. Bradway of the Law School and the Legal Aid Clinic, gave his able guidance and generous assistance. The Society, organized in 1938, grew out of a desire for a cooperative organization in which pre- legal students might obtain the necessary knowl- edge to enable them to discuss intelligentiy many of the questions and problems arising in the minds. The determination of the individual ' s capability for the study and practice of law and the choice of a good law school are two important decisions which have to be made. Therefore, the objects of the organization are to provide information concerning law schools, different phases of the profession, and 111 to establish a closer relationship between the Under- graduate and Law Schools. The Program Chairmen, Jeanne Kiley and Mary Ellen McCarthy, planned this year ' s program ac- cording to these objectives. Among the speakers, secured with the help of Dr. Bradway, were Judge A. H. Borland of the Recorder ' s Court; Judge Marshall T. Spears, recently retired from the Su- perior Court; Mr. Charles Miller of the Duke Legal Aid Clinic; and Mr. William R. Roalfe, Duke ' s Law Librarian. In the spring the members en- joyed a steak fry and the annual Spring Banquet. The Society hopes to continue its climb to cam- pus prominence and influence in the coming years and to do so by the merit of continuous activity. PI MU EPSILON Bestowing honor on those who have done excel- lent work in beginning mathematics is the purpose of Pi Mu Epsilon; furthering mathematical study and research; and, in general, encouraging interest in mathematics. The qualifications for initiation in the fraternity include B average in mathe- matics plus a C average in all other courses. With the help of its faculty adviser. Dr. W. W. Elliott, the local chapter is organized to fulfill its purpose. During the war years its interests were definitely in line with the wartime aspects of mathe- matics, and now, as most campus organizations, it has settled down to reconversion. Since mathe- matics is essential in the study of physics, chemistry, and engineering. Pi Mu Epsilon members are pre. paring themselves to contribute greatiy to the progress of science in the postwar world. This year the fraternity had an initiation on October ii and another in the early spring. In October forty-five members were taken in and, following their initiation, they went on a tour of Dr. Rankin ' s math laboratory and attended an open house. The national fraternity was established at Syra- cuse University in 1914, and the Duke chapter, North Carolina Alpha, was chartered in 1932. Officers for the school year, 1945-46 were: Jacque- line Quinn, president; Jane Ammerman, vice pres- ident; Ethelyn Smith, secretary; and Joe King, treasurer. DELTA PHI RHO ALPHA First in athletics on East Campus are the mem- bers of Delta Phi Rho Alpha, an honorary athletic sorority founded in 1921. This sorority was cre- ated as a sister organization to Tombs, honorary athletic fraternity for men, as an answer to a de- mand for better organization of athletic activities for women. It promotes leadership, sportsman- ship, school spirit, and a general interest in all sports. By challenging winning teams in athletic contests it fosters keen competition. Delta Phi Rho Alpha recognizes girls who are outstanding in ability, interest, and leadership in athletics. To inspire participation in all sport s and a fulfillment of their code of sportsmanship and leadership, a gold key is awarded to the senior who is considered the best athlete. In cooperation with the W.A.A. Delta Phi Rho Alpha aids in all campus sports activities. Last year they captured the trophy for inter dorm basket- ball tournament. Each year a maximum of two juniors and seven sophomores are admitted. The initiation in March is similar to that of Tombs. The initiates are stationed anywhere on East Campus from the Washington Duke Statue to the steps of Southgate. Each goat is garbed in the traditional costume of heavy black stockings, one black and one white shoe, a middy blouse and a short black skirt. In addition to the usual apparel, each has to carry a rolling pin, a paddle, a bucket, and various other articles with the Greek letters of the sorority on them. Having been chosen for membership because of outstanding ability and interest in athletics, the members of Delta Phi Rho Alpha have lived up to their reputation as enthusiastic workers and plan- ners under the leadership of this year ' s officers; Nancy Hunter, president; Bill Church, vice presi- dent; Jean Rockey, secretary; and Pat Weiland, treasurer. NEREIDIAN Swimming enthusiasts among the Duke Co-eds get together in the Nereidian Club, East ' s honorary 112 swimming organization, established in 1938. Each year tryouts are held to choose new members by actual competition in swimming and diving form. The new girls go through a pledging ceremony at the pool ' s edge followed by Fish Day, during which they appear on campus makeup-less, sport- ing large fish hung around their necks, and earnestly fishing in litde glasses of water with their long fish- ing rods. Not only do the members benefit from the com- petition and practice offered by the Club, such as their participation in the National Telegraphic Swimming Meet each year, but the whole campus enjoys Nereidian ' s annual water pageant. Ever since the club was founded, the campus has re- garded the Pageant as one of the big events of the year. The pageant has increased in popularity to such an extent that it is now presented three nights, and attracts crowds not only from East and West campus, but also from Durham and neighboring towns. It has become such a tremendous project that the members practice for months in advance. This year, it centered around a New Orleans theme and featured a Mardi Gras figure, a syncopated blues number, and several other South-inspired figures. The final number was the traditional candle-light number, which proved even more beautiful this year than in previous years. At the Open House in the fall, freshmen were entertained by Nereidian ' s beautiful water waltz number, using phosphorescent flowers. The Club closed another successful season this year, with forty-five members after fall tryouts and another large group in the spring. Nereidian stars today — swimming champs tomorrow. This year ' s officers: Corky Rose, President; Marian Van Trine, Vice President; Marian Pecot, Secretary; Arlene Palmer, Treasurer. It was the capability of these officers that made the year 1945-46 the most suc- cessful year that the Nereidian Club has ever experienced. WAA The Woman ' s Athletic Association, whose aim is to organize and promote student participation in athletic and recreational activities, has this year planned and executed an extensive program for Woman ' s College Students. The governing body of the Association, composed of the following: Corky Rose, president; Nancy Hunter, vice president; Pat Marshall, secretJiry; Betsy Buchanan, treasurer; Jean Erwin, publicity chairman; Dot Lewis, chairman of points system; Jean Noble, freshman representative; Nancy Sour, council representative; Joe Rae, president of the Badminton Club; Monkey Walters, head of basket- ball; Jane Ammerman, head of bowling; Dot Mere- dith, head of fencing; Gloria Koltinsky, head of golf; Mary Morse, head of hockey; B.J. Culbreth, head of minor sports; Patsy Foutz, president of Modern Dance Club; Corky Rose, president of Nereidian; Libby Vining, president of the Pegasus Qub; Bill Church, head of softball; Rhoda Rial, head of swimming; and Jean Rockey, head of tennis. The W.A.A. again sponsored the traditional open house during freshman week. Representatives from the components of the athletic association demonstrated the activities of their groups in order to build up an interest among the freshmen in the athletic program. Another very successful open house was held later in the fall which provided dancing, gypsy fortune-tellers, and facilities for al- most every indoor sport. In the spring semester tournaments in all sports were held. Here inter-dorm and inter-sorority competition came into play, with each group ex- pending all effort and ability to win an award. For the benefit of all W.A.A. members a field day was held in December. Later in the year the Duke hockey team travelled to Greensboro to participate in a play day with other North Carolina Woman ' s Colleges. This was in accordance with the general policy of the W.A.A. to encourage athletic enjoy- ment with other schools nearby. As a part of the expansion program of the W.A.A., all members of the student body were made consequently members of the W.A.A. This enables anyone to join one of the various clubs and to par- ticipate freely in all W.A.A. activities. The organization extended itself to national scope when it rejoined the American Federation of College Women, a nation wide athletic association. Beginning last year, the W.A.A. awzu-ds D ' s to all girls who have earned a required number of points according to the point system for participa- tion in athletics. This year the W.A.A., in cooperation with the 113 Modem Dance Club, sponsored Charles Weidman and his dance group in recital. Mr. Weidman held a master class in the afternoon for all who were in- terested in modern dance instruction, following which was a small reception in the W.A.A. room. The Modern Dance recital presented something novel this year in a demonstration of the relation of all the Arts. The dancers worked with Mr. Robert Hull and his Madrigal Singers on a number entitled Prayer for Peace. Even more significant an innovation was the Congo a colorful dance composed by the Modern Dance Club and accom- panied by the speaking voice of Mr. Ernest Bade- noch of the English department. The recital was held in the Woman ' s College Auditorium on March i. With the coming of spring. The Pegasus Club brought the horses out of winter hiding for the Pegasus Horse Show. As an improvement over last year ' s show, plaques and cups, instead of rib- bons, were presented to the winning riders. These shows have brought increased interest in the club and consequently a large, enthusiastic membership. The ambition of the W.A.A. to better associate the Woman ' s College with a well-rounded program of recreational activity has been fully satisfied, as is shown by the major accomplishments of the board and the association is the great expansion toward the chosen objective. DUKE BAND The Duke University Band plays the dual role of Pep unit and Concert organization. In the fall the marching Band appears at all home football games in appropriate manuevers and formations. The 1945 season brought the Durham high school band, the N. C. State band and the University of North Carolina band as guest organizations in the Duke stadium. Transportation limitations re- stricted the usual out of town band trips to but one visit to Wake Forest. Despite wartime con- ditions the Marching Band maintained a unit of fifty-five men whose spirit and color coupled with a thorough individual musicianship presented a major enchantment to the pageantry of the foot- ball season. At the close of the football season the band com- mences its major work of the year as a concert organization. The Concert Band performs the best available literature for bands presenting both original compositions for band and transcriptions from the orchestral repertoire. This year the Concert Band presented its annual Winter concert in Page auditorium besides appearing in the two outdoor lawn concerts and a special concert for the Alumni during Commencement week. The activities of the Concert Band were terminated with the furnishing of music for Commencement. This is the second year that the Band has been directed by Allan H. Bone. Band personnel is as follows: Flute: Georgia Bryan Logan, Jessie Mason McNeil, Matthew Urlaub. First Clarinet: Robert Friauf, NROTC; Donald Rothey, Jim McRae, Earl Mueller. Second Clarinet: Edward Linker, NROTC; Barbara Weil, Frances Chapman, Horace Glover, NROTC; Louis Enloe, Louise Elliott.

No, Barnum and Bailey isn ' t in town; they ' re the characters that inhabit the famed 114 Row. Never a dull moment and very few work- ing ones, but somehow the publications always come out on time. Grab hold of your mother ' s hand and we ' ll parade past the cages where you may get a good look at these characters and their antics. First stop is the dark-room where you can ' t see too much (obviously), but Charlie and Gordie can always be found developing some hot shots taken on Haines Field. Then Proctor breaks in and says, Whip up a couple of dozen enlarge- ments of me and Clarko. I want to send them to all my friends in the service! And with a clatter and clash Jim is out on his ear, and we pass on to the den of the Editor of ye olde book — HefTo is sitting there with a most pained expression on her face. The work evidently is piling up on her. Shall I bid four spades or five clubs? In dashes Pearse screaming, I can ' t get Herring to pose in his PJ ' s! Way is busy trying to count to forty- five with her shoes off, but can ' t seem to make it, while Libbo and Kiley are on the floor mounting class panels. As we leave this cage Tracks storms in and grabs Pat ' s toes but isn ' t helping her count too much. As we inch our way past Massi and Baker who are waiting to fling the bull over Don Ameche ' s invention, we hear Proctor screaming Someone has taken a three-cent stamp out of the petty cash box! Councill accents Johnnie, I do wish you ' d stop pinching my knee — it hurts. Try the other for a while! Hopkins, Allen, and An- derson are admiring Buchanan ' s pin on her sweater — what a pin! We stagger on to Kay ' s Koffin, better known as the Archive Office. Cooper and Hudson are talking things over on the couch while Mayers and Classen try to pull Scahill and Gunn out from the closet. Stand back a bit from this next cage — it ' s the Chronicle cubby-hole we ' re entering. Smootie and Jimmie are perched in the same chair doing the make-up (Smootie ' s naturally) while Brim is screaming about a dangling participle! Winko is begging Corrig to get off her lap, and Lauer is begging for a decent head. Moesta is working on the books while the boys are working on Moesta. Whatta working office! While we ' re still in our right minds and all the animals are still in their right cages, we bid the Row a fond farewell and go back to reading Zebra Derby. ARCHIVE Edited by Kay Mayers, the second feminine Editor of Duke ' s monthly magazine, the 1945-46 Archive saw the return of more men to the staff, the appearance of pre-war talent, and the acquisi- tion of engraving and photographic equipment formerly frozen by the government. With a small but capable staff and with the aid of Associate Editor Sue Bowmall cuid Assistant Editors Vir- ginia Gunn and Peg Thome, it was poassible to distribute assignments for the magazine among many people and, hence, to build up a smoothly working editorial department, most of whom will be on hand next year. When Business Manager Bill Eaton graduated in October, he was succeeded by ROTC man, Jim Cooper. To Jim goes the credit for increasing the number of advertisers in the magazine, for securing more national advertising, and for planning better advertising layouts for each issue. Co-ed Business Manager Fran Hudson directed her staff in the selling of ads to Durham merchants, and designer Margaret Meeker created many of the advertise- ment patterns. Norris Hodgkins and Tom Scahill handled subscriptions and circulation, both of which were doubled over preceding years. Norris and Tom also took care of distribution on West, assisted by Margaret Ann Frans on East. Success- ful management of finances was done by J. Patrick Dorsey. Of primary importance in the success of the Archive for 1 945-46 was the excellent art staff which included Sandy Tecklin, Charlotte Mill, Martha Johnson, Johnny Barber, Pat Wimberly, Kitty Morrison, and Cathy Crowell. There were more illustrations per issue of a larger size than in former years, as well as original cartoons and more drawn center spreads and covers. Photography, too, came into its own, with original pictures by Prudy Wise, Merlyn McClure, Fay Finley, and Gordon Nazor. Contributions by alumni and the appear- ance of several articles each month on topics of campus interest were innovations in this year ' s issues of the Archive. The Editor ' s Column and This Month, as well as Vulture Culture, were included in each issue of the magazine. Outstanding among this year ' s issues and rem- iniscent of last May ' s Archive Time, was the Decem- 115 ber Archive Esquire. With over fifty pages, the Esquire was modeled identically on its namesake and included editorial material covering all fields, original full-page cartoons, beauty queens, and a Varga girl. Other issues followed such themes as Freshman Week, Hallowe ' en, Thanksgiving, Valentine ' s Day, and spring at Duke. CHANTICLEER The Chanticleer editorial staff presents the completed yearbook in hopes that the students may find as much pleasure in reading and keeping it as the staff has had in preparing and publishing it. The book has been completed with much labor on the part of Ann Heffner and her staff. The work of the editorial staff begins the first day of Freshman Week and continues until the finished book is presented to the students. The Chanticleer is then, the result of a whole year ' s planning on the part of the editor and her staff. They must cover every phase of Duke life, its student body and organizations — ODK tapping, Duke-Carolina games, WSSF Drive, and on and on. The coverage of the events for a whole year therefore makes the work broader and more varied than any other publication. This year the Chanticleer departed from its usual form. Instead of combining pictures and write-ups, each section was divided into write-ups in the front part and pictures in the back part. This new form has been used in only a half dozen yearbooks, including the Northwestern SYLLABUS and die BUNKER HILL Book. It has met wide approval in all instances, and it is the earnest hope of the Chanticleer that Duke students will accept it as wholehezu-tedly as the other schools have done. Also, the new form has been carried out further by printing the book on antique paper, giving it a definite richness and quality. As in previous years, the talents and interests of students from both campuses were combined in the editorial office. Here they gathered informa- tion, wrote articles, outlined the complete book, and mounted the pictures. While they were se- curing information for the book, they learned facts about campus activities and organizations about which they had known very litUe. This knowl- edge proves valuable not only in understanding more completely the school and the student body, but it also aids the members of the staff that want to continue in journalism after graduation. Per- haps that is the one main advantage of working on the Chanticleer; one learns information that no book could ever teach. Editor Heffner was assisted by Jeanne Kiley, assistant editor; Co-ed editor Libby Shanley; mounting head, Maggie Carter; write-up head Pat Way; lay-out, Helen Gordon; typing, True Cochran; sports, Jim Hopkins; sororities and fra- ternities, Martha McKennon. The photographing was supervised by Barbara Pearse, assisted by Gordon Nazor and Charlie Carver. They covered and photographed every major event of the year, including sports, dances, and other social and scholastic events. This year, their job was increased by the larger student life picture section; they work far into the night for many months in order to give the students a clear and exact picture of all phases of life on this cam- pus. The pictures were developed and printed by them in their own dark room. BUSINESS STAFF The business staff of the Chanticleer this year has successfully accomplished a splendid and enor- mous task. It has always been a difficult job to obtain advertisements to sustain the financial end of an annual and also to make the necessary col- lections from the student body. This task, how- ever, was increased this year due to the necessity of financing a larger book of a different variety. 116 In spite of this, the total volume of advertising, both local and national, has increased remarkably, being one of the largest sections yet contracted for, and the recently adopted plan regarding East pay- ments was so successful that it is hoped that it will be possible to include the West campus in the near future. Much of the success of the 1946 Chanticleer can be attributed to James Proctor, the Business Manager. Under his able direction the business staff functioned smoothly and efficiently. Grace Councill, Co-ed Business Manager, exercised ex- cellent supervision over the entire office staff, and, assisted by capable worker, aided Mr. Chidnoff with the class portrait sittings. Jack Shehee, As- sociate Business Manager, was responsible for the large and complicated bookkeeping functions, and Johnny Coleman contributed greatly to every phase of the work of the year. Mr. Charles Jordan, Fac- ulty Adviser, through many years of publication experience aided inestimably in guiding the editor and business manager in their editorial and finan- cial decisions. The importance of a competent and efficient staff cannot be underestimated and sincere thanks is due each and every one for the very excellent manner in which they contributed to the final success of the finished annual. If the majority are pleased with the outcome of the stafPs endeavor, that is all one may ask. CHRONICLE Duke ' s fight for freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of everything that goes to make places nice to be around was the basis of the 1 945- 46 Duke Chronicle. From the very beginning of the fall semester, fur began to fly in thick quantities. Retiring editor Lewis Branscomb sprung from his cage in the final round and summed up the situa- tion in A Frank Appraisal of Duke, before tossing the fire-brand to his assistant editor, Jimmie Alex- ander. The new regime found Alexander, Pennington, Brimberry, Smoot plus a staff of untrained report- ers faced a new campus era. Returning Duksters all but tore down the doors demanding immediate reconversion to the good ole days. The Chronicle personnel, willing to face the issue, paused and pondered. The immediate welfare of Duke stu- dents became their pressing goal. Calls for read- justment were blocked by editorial campaigns to improve Union conditions, to establish a potent, student-run S.G.A., to attack scheduling defects, and to find out just what Duke existed for. Accomplishments were soon noticed. Students still cried against despotism, averred their need for more freedom, chronically objected to being treated as immates. Was going to college an investment in their future paths of life? The Chronicle didn ' t know. The Chronicle office lost some of its old-time glam- our. Efficiency and better work substituted for late hours and faulty copy. The campus characters, still unimpressed by the changes, lagged, got in the way, served as diversion. Steady invasions for reportorial posts featured the year. The Chronicle had gained a reputation for being a red-hot rag and everybody wanted to share in its warmth. Editorializing and columnizing, led by Alex- ander, Bob Allen, and Jack Foster, the Chronicle refused to back out, or even tread water when the going became rugged. It had long ago been estab- lished as the last hope of free expression. It had power. The five-time All-American Honor winner maintained its prestige. Previous editors, many of whom were now over- seas, sent in reports to hold the line and to carry the torch. Several editorial staff shakeups failed to demor- alize the spirit to put out the best damn news- paper possible. The editor urged use of the Chronicle as an organ for expression of student th- ought. He did not write against murder. He felt that everyone by this time had thought murder was pretty well disliked. He by-passed long- standing traditions to support the very b est of Duke University by attacking its very worse. En- couraged everywhere but from the Administration, Alexander peered into every nook and cranny be- fore succumbing to re-registration fever. Prime among the Chronicle ' s big jobs was the move to bring Publications Board to the people who knew it best. At the time of this writing. Pub Board re- mained latent, uninformed, non-representative, but the wheels were turning, waiting for a final spin by the Bozu-d of Trustees. 117 The Chronicle continued to be a little city all to itself, defiant, but always receptive to that which would help it keep a firm finger on the pulse of the campus. It desired to serve more than to please. Final accounts in the win-lose columns showed Duke ' s crusading weekly batting higher than .500. Co-ed Editors Helen Mercner and Mary Jane Simpson, News Editor Norris Hodgkins, Sports Editor Paul Yount, Art Editor Bill Starrs paced the subordinate posts which poured out the real work of ems and ens to prepare copy for the printer. Bill Halliday, Lew Hodgkins, Ken Baldwin, Fenton Guinee, Bill Hill, Kay Lauer, Cissy Willoughby, Dora Merris, Dave Schenck, Marshall Spears, Johnny Barnard and Reese Carson manned the news coverage. Most extra-curricular activity this year was forth- coming from tripping co-eds from the Chanticleer office. A lot of activity centered on after-hour ses- sions in the DukEngineer office. All told, the Row remained active, and the Chronicle remained, even though some of its staff did not. The Duke Chronicle comes out once every week. Its editorial staff work from Monday through Thursday and are at rest for the remainder of the week. This statement does not apply, however, to the business staff, that unheralded little group that keeps the paper running with its solicitation of advertisments and balancing of accounts. Any day of any week you ' ll find Winkie and her gang working tirelessly to find that extra forty-eight cents or trying to remember the name of that nice man who wanted to advertise. Winkie Lewis holds down the job of business manager, with Bud Middleworth as advertising manager; Nan Moesta, office manager; Polly Weedin in charge of business on East Campus. The business staff also sees that every student who is entitled to a Chronicle gets one. In charge of circulation is Carlton Fleming, with Fran Milam taking caie. of distribution of East. It may be noted that, under the present staff, the Chronicle is paying for itself for the first time since the war. Each staff member goes about his or her work with the enthusiasm and eagerness which readily explain the fine record the business is com- piling. The job is not easy, but it ' s fun, say the staff, each hoping to receive a full salary this year. THE 1945 SPECIAL CHART STAFF The Special Chart is a bi-monthly mimeographed publication of the student nurses of the Duke School of Nursing and is the official nursing school paper. Although the Special Chart is only in its third year of publication, it has already proved its worth by providing the necessary link toward keeping the student body informed on all the goings on of the school, as well as bringing the student body, as a whole, closer together. This is a thing that has been thought necessary for some time, and this paper seems to fill the need very efficiently — the credit going entirely to the hardworking staff. The staff is composed of those students who are interested in journalism and wish to maintain their interest throughout their three year training period. Its success can be attributed to the Editor- in-Chief, Johnie Curry; Associate Editor, Eleanor Beasley; Business Manager, Edith Cooke; Head Typist, Jean Haley; and Art Editor, Phoebe Conrad. The new staff is picked each year by the retiring staff though anyone may write for the paper at any time. The Special Charts clever covers, its timely news items, and ready wit are a constant source of enjoy- ment to its readers and the issues serve as a record of events in the lives and times of a Duke nurse. THE DOLPHIN Where do we go from here? is the theme that the new staff of the Dolphin has been singing these days. As far as that goes most of the Navy men have been singing the same song. The insecurity that is the result of not knowing exactly what the Navy program at Duke will do or what we in the Navy program are going to do has had radical results in determining the output of the Dolphin. Whether to go ahead and publish another issue and face dissolution in the middle of setting up the type, or to just forget about the whole thing — that is the quandary that the staff of the Dolphin now finds itself in. But let us forget for a moment the troubles that 118 we have and let ' s see what has happened this past year with the Dolphin. Bill Farren continued as Editor from last yezir and is now being succeeded by Clarence M. Longley of Orlando, Florida. During the past year two different types of publi- cations have been edited — a magazine issued bi- monthly and a yearbook. The magazines were continued on the same principle as previous years with more emphasis placed on original ideas, novel cartoons, articles of an informational form, and feature stories that had a bearing on Navy life. With the last issue of the magazine that Farren put out he got his dying wish — a four color cover. But early in the spring of ' 45 a desire was ex- pressed by many of the students for a strictly Navy type of yearly review. The Commodore Club, which sponsors the Dolphin, held a special meeting and discovered that the men were unani- mously behind the idea. But merely wishing didn ' t solve the problem of obtaining pictures, paper, covers, photographers, office space, and the thousand and one things that were needed. The assistance of the Chanticleer was vital in getting our little Navy book underway. The Navy Office and the students fell into the way and really put out with time and effort in getting the book together. By August first the material for the book began to take shape and the staff began to see the light shining through. The deadline for issuing the book was set at October 15 when a quick check with the printers on October i un- covered the fact that they hadn ' t even got their first proofs put together yet! Pressure from all sides was applied and on the afternoon of the 1 5th large bundles of the Dolphin Yearbooks began to arrive. Although it was only 96 pages in length it did give an up-to-the-minute story of the func- tioning of the Navy Unit at Duke. Will the Dolphin continue? Yes, if the Navy con- tinues. But the material that is in any publication can only reflect the amount of work that is put into it. In the past the men of this unit have put a tremendous amount of work and effort into their Navy publication and this energy has been re- flected by the excellent reception that the Navy Student body has accorded it. We hope that it will continue. DUKENGINEER The DukEngineer, after 5 years of operation on East Campus, with its office in the basement of the Women ' s Union, this year moved West with its staff. When the Engineers were ousted from Southgate and Epworth to make room for the ex- panding Women ' s College, the DukEngineer joined the other publications on the Row. The bi- monthly moved into the Archive ' s business office, home of the famous purple passion couch. The sixth year of publication by the students of the College of Engineering marked still further growth and development and it has at last taken its place among the leading engineering college magazines of the nation. After three years of publi- cation in a mimeographed and then a pint- sized form, the DukEngineer appeared in July 1943 as a full grown magazine. In June, John ImhofF defeated the incumbent Editor-in-Chief, Bob Norris, in a closely contested election. Bill Becker was installed as managing editor, and William McKee became associate edi- tor. After Imhoff had put in a forceful and active four months. Bill Becker took over the editorship and McKee moved up to managing editor with John Mitchell in the associate position. In Novem- ber, McKee was elected editor-in-chief, Mitchell became managing editor, and Art Wheller stepped into the position of associate editor. Hoyle Wilson, Walt Ross, and Buford Neeley succeeded each other to the position of business manager. The capable and unselfish support of the many other members of the staff has provided the foundation for their success. From the very start, the DukEngineer policy has been to present an original cover design with each issue. Pleasing a great variety of readers requires a broad selection of subject matter: technical dis- cussions; news of engineeringalumni; popular pres- entations o f engineering subjects; cartoon carica- tures of The Profs ; historical tidbits concerning the early days of engineering at Duke; tributes to alumni who have given their lives at the battle- fronts; and a pictorial presentation of the Engi- neers ' Slide Rule Queen. The advertisements of nationally-known industrial and engineering firms have been designed for eye-appeal and general interest, and provide further variety for the reader. 119 PHI BETA KAPPA BETA CHAPTER OF NORTH CAROLINA Installed at Duke University on March 29, 1920 Officers Dr. W.

BOOK III NAVY NAVY N AUSPICIOUS YEAR was 1 945- 1 946 for the Duke University Naval Unit, for during this year the train- jing program shifted from the mass production of Na- val Officers needed to win the war to the production of more highly trained men who would be able to maintain the Navy ' s stake in the postwar world. Victories in Europe and Japan were welcomed by the men here at Duke, many of whom had seen a great deal of action in the fleet before being trans- ferred to V-12. Those who had not seen active service knew that their job was just beginning and that they might yet have to sacrifice in order to make sure the United States would win the peace. The end of the war meant something else to the men of the Naval Unit here at Duke. There was a certain lifting of tenseness, a certain sigh of relief in knowing that now they could concentrate on the job that they came here to do and not have to worry about what was happening to what army or what force overseas. However, they did not neglect this job. They realized the full importance of a college education in getting back into civilian life, and they were ready to take advantage of the oppor- tunity the Navy gave them for such an education. The campus will miss the Navy. It sounds strange perhaps to say that one will miss any re- minder of the past war, but Duke is fully aware of the great part that the Navy played in keeping this University at its high level of standards during the war, and it is grateful. 155 NAVY THEY SERVE ON LAND IN TRAINING FOR THE BRINY DEEP ' ORK COMPLETED, Captain Char- lie P. McFeaters, our Commanding Officer, retired on August 15, 1945 (Unofficial V-J Day), and was re- placed by Captain Alexander M. Kowalzyk. The new Commandant has had a distinguished war record, serving on the U.S.S. Cincinnati and later commanding a destroyer division that roamed the North Atlantic and Mediterranean. Before com- ing to Duke, Kowalzyk attended a special school at Harvard. This is his second tour of duty as Commandant of a NROTG Unit, since he was once in charge of a unit at the University of Okla- homa before the war broke out. The post of Executive Officer of the Unit changed hands three times during the year. First of all Lt. Cmdr. F. H. Stubbs left to return to civilian life and then his successor Lt. Cmdr. Calvin A. Walker followed him in returning to that status so envied by all NROTC ' s. The present Exec is Commander A. B. Coxe. Mr, Stubbs, who holds a Master ' s Degree in Bacteriology from Johns Hopkins Institute, is now the Director of Branch Labs of the Georgia State Department of Health in Adanta. Mr. Walker and Captain McFeaters had both served aboard the U.S.S. Cincinnati, the former as communica- tions officer and the latter as Executive Officer. The new Executive Officer is a graduate of the Naval Academy, class of 1933, and was the com- manding officer of the U.S.S. Volkenburg before coming to Duke. Lt. Cmdr. Gust C. Nichandros held the position of head of the NROTG Department of the Duke V-12 until his separation from the Unit for dis- charge processing in September. Nichandros is a graduate of the University of California and before entering the Naval Reserve was employed as an industrial engineer with the United States Steel Corporation. His entire career in the Navy was spent aboard the U.S.S. Ballard on which he rose from the junior officer through the positions of Gunnery Officer, Torpedo Officer, and Executive Officer until he finally was named Commanding Officer of the vessel. Mr. Nichandros was succeeded by Lt. Cmdr. George Smith, another Reservist who graduated from Loyola College in Baltimore. Smith wears the Pacific Theater ribbon with 1 3 battle stars and the Philippine Liberation ribbon with two battle stars. The remainder of the staff of Naval Officers at Duke was also subject to much shifting, as the officers accumulated the necessary points for dis- charge from the Navy. Lt. B. O. Muffley is the only holdover from last year, and he is expecting his discharge any day. Mr. Muffley is a specialist in Ordnance and Gunnery. 156 New officers who arrived in July were Lt. (now Lt. Cmdr.) Oscar Pence, Lt. Ralph Whitlock, Lt. D. E. Johnson, and Lt. M. D. Weisflock. All four had seen much action throughout the war, and two have since been discharged. Four new officers reported for duty here at the beginning of the November semester. They were Ens. A. L. Lugn, Lt. R. B. Sears, Lt. R. P. Sher- man, and Lt. D. E. Bertholf. Ens. Lugn is a native of Lincoln, Nebraska, and before receiving his appointment to Annapolis in 1924, he attended the University of Nebraska. After his graduation he served for a short time as a member of the executive department at Annap- olis. Lt. Sears joined the Navy in January 1942, at Charleston, West Virginia, which he claims as his home town. Before his enlistment he attended Hampd en-Sydney College. Since that time he has been in numerous amphibious operations for which he has been recommended for the Bronze Star. Lt. Sherman left his hometown of Chicago to attend Dartmouth College before he enlisted in the Navy. While in the Navy he saw action on P T Boats in the Aleutians, New Guinea, and the Philippine Islands. In December he was trans- ferred to the Naval Hospital at Portsmouth for the treatment of injuries suffered in action. Lt. Bertholf attended Kansas State College and had agricultural engineering as his civilian occu- pation. He received his commission in March 1943, and served six months in the Atlantic and eighteen months in the Pacific as skipper of a PT boat. Lt. Henry C. Jenkins, Lt. (jg) Homer T. Wesche, Lt. (jg) Donald H. Sloat, and Ens. Robert C. Greene arrived at Duke in January in order to relieve officers who were about to be discharged. Lt. Jenkins came to Duke from the Fleet Sonar School in Key West, Florida. He assumed the duties of officer in charge of the Navy Physical Fitness Program. Jenkins, a graduate of Missis- sippi College, was employed by the Clarksdale City schools, Clarksdale, Miss., as athletic director and coach before joining the Navy in 1942. Lieut, (jg) Wesche is a former All-American basketball player from the Kansas State University and was employed as an agricultural engineer be- fore entering the Navy in 1942. He served a tour of landing craft duty before coming to Duke. Lt. (jg) Sloat participated in 47 war patrols and 15 actions while on patrols, serving with a Motor Torpedo Boat squadron. Ensign Robert C. Greene is the last of the new officers to report for duty at Duke. He entered the Navy one month after his graduation from Penn State College in June 1 944. Lt. Mac E. Synder, a graduate of the Univer- sity of Toledo, was separated in January. He had been in the Navy since May 1942, and had served overseas twenty months in the Solomon Islands. During the July to November semester the NROTC Unit was organized into a Battalion consisting of four companies. The student heads of this organization where chosen for their quali- ties of leadership, as determined by the commis- sioned officers and their fellow classmates. All student officers were first classmen as they were the nearest class to graduation and commissioning. Ernest Bear Knotts served as Battalion Com- mander for this semester with Bill Eaton as his right hand man in the capacity of Battalion Ad- jutant. Company Commanders were Bob Herbst of Company A, Dutch Vandenend of Company B, Rex Gresham of Company C, and Marc Nick- erson of Company D. A fifth company composed entirely of V-12 engineers, physics majors, and pre- medicals was under the command of Bill Robinson. The following semester the organization had to be entirely changed due to the influx of NROTC transfers and V-5 aviation candidates. This time Bob Plunkett had the unenviable job of heading the Battalion with Bob Lent as his Sub-Command- er. Gus Newman kept the boys happy with his antics as well as holding down the post of Battalion 157 Adjutant. Company Commanders were Jack Ma- ginnis, Ed Peters, Dick Brooks, Jay Ky Beam, and Warren Lamb. The Company Commanders for the three V-12 companies were Walt Ross, Perry Holder, and Ray Dunaiski. Willie Condon took over the Battalion Com- mander ' s duties in March, and was assisted by Squire Hanni as Battalion Sub-Commander, George Hofmeister as Battalion Adjutant, and Hal Becker, Paul Thomas, and Jim Cahow as Company Commanders. As the war neared its completion the Navy shifted from a policy of sending men to Midshipmen ' s School after four semesters to one which would keep officer candidates in regular academic schools such as Duke for a period long enough for them to earn a degree. In consequence there were only two small graduating classes during the year, twen- ty-five men leaving with the rank of ensigns, USNR, in November. The number which will graduate in June is approximately one hundred. The Navy has been very liberal in allowing its V-12 trainees to participate in extra-curricular ac- tivities. The majority of men have become affil- iated with social and honorary fraternities and have taken part in athletics and other campus activities. Bear Knotts and George Clark of the Blue Devils varsity gridiron team were among the most famous of our representatives in the field of athletics. Both were named All-Southern and made second and third team choices on several All-American picks. Ed Koffenberger and Dick Arch Whiting led Duke ' s cagers in their Southern Conference victory. Jim LaRue was high point man for the track team last spring, winning the 100 and 220 yard dashes in the majority of meets. Chuck Tichenor was se- lected captain of the tennis team and at one time was the number four ranking junior player in the nation. George Clark played a lot of second base for Coach Colby Jack Coombs ' baseballers and led the Ration League in batting. Other Navy stu- dents who won first team births on the Blue Devil varsity football team in addition to Clark and Knotts were NROTCs Johnny Kriza and Gordon Smith and Navy med students Gordon Carver and John Crowder. Several others saw a lot of action as reserves and these included Bob Smith, Cliff Haggerty, Jim LaRue, Ed Koffenberger, and Tony Bozich. Bill McKee and transfer Paul Ocken looked good on Duke ' s rather weak swimming team. NROTC Harry Sutton captained this team and also won several breast stroke events during the season. Many of the Navy b oys took an active part in the intramural program of the University. A team of Muhlenberg transfers going under the name of Berg made a commendable showing in the touch football league before finally bowing out. A group of V-5 transfers from Hampden-Sydney made a bitter fight out of it before losing out for their division title in the intramural basketball league. An NROTC team, the Flyers, went to the semi-finals of the league before going down to defeat. In a cross-country intramural event solely for Navy men. Company C edged out the rest of the Unit for top honors. 158 On the social side of the ledger the Navy trainees didn ' t do too badly either. The two Navy Balls were among the most successful social events of the season, and the two Sunday Night Sings also won the campus ' s acclaim. These social activities were under the guidance of the Commodore ' s Club, through its duly elected officers and executive board. All members of the NROTG Unit may become members of this Club, and its purpose is to further good spirit and comradeship among the Naval trainees at Duke. Teeney Roberts was se- lected president of the Club for the fall semester and was succeeded by Tom Scahill for the winter term. Other officers under Roberts were Bill McDonald, vice president; Tom Scahill, secretary; and Les Kloss, treasurer. Scahill aided and abetted by vice president Bob Plunkett, who had more jobs than he had gripes during his final semester, secre- tary Tim Bruck, and treasurer Stan Brackenwagen. The first Ball came on the night after the thrill- ing football game with Wake Forest and NROTG Ed Pratt rose to the occasion by providing music sweet and hot from his campus swingsters. High- light of the evening was a series of much beloved songs (The Old Beer Bottle, etc.) from the lips of a trio of first classmen, Teeney Roberts, Nick Nickerson, and Bob Page. The suspense of guessing who would be the ROTC Beauty Queen for 1946 provided the ex- citement at the February Naval Ball. Glamour- ous Buffa Garrett, a honey-colored blonde with a peaches and cream complexion, walked off with the honor and also with the hearts of the awe- struck NROTG. For the first time since the war started, balloons graced the overhead of the Wom- an ' s Gym. Needless to say, they didn ' t stay up there all evening as the sailors got busy with chairs and tables to procure a souvenir of the extrava- ganza. The leadership ability of the boys in uniform at Duke can be proved conclusively by a glaince at some statistics. Nine out of ten of the men tapped to Omicron Delta Kappa, the highest honorary leadership fraternity on campus, have been Navy men. For six consecutive semesters the president of the Men ' s Student Government Association was a sailor. Likewise an NROTG had held the im- portant post of president of the Men ' s Pan-Hellenic Council four consecutive semesters until this spring. For the first time since the establishment of an NROTG Unit here the men put out an all-Navy yearbook, the Dolphin. Under the editorship of Bill Farren, the book depicted the life under the Navy regime and carried pictures of all the men in the Unit. The Navy magazine, also called the Dolphin, appeared regularly for the reading enjoy- ment of the personnel (and East Campus) . One of the hardest working groups in the Bat- talion Organization, and also one which gained little of its deserved recognition, was the Drum and Bugle Corps. Under the direction of Lt. M. D. Weisflock and Student Commander Rudy Hall, the Corps has been able to make a fine showing at reviews. Members of the Drum and Bugle Corps were Wester, McGonnell, Helm, Hammett, Map- pas, Chevrier, Scott, O ' Neil, Phelps, Burch, Friauf, Fox, Nixon, Billings, Sutton, Thomas, Harden, Bagwell, Gooley, and Thayer. The Rifle Team is another group which gets much less credit than it deserves. In the past the Duke Naval Rifle Team has won the American Legion and Hearst competition awards. With the increase in the Unit ' s size, interest in the Rifle Team has gone up, but Chief Davis and Lt. Wesche will have to start the season this spring with almost an entirely new squad because of the graduation of many of the veteran members of the team. The curriculum that the Navy requires its officer candidates to pass is a stiff one and under the Naval Science and Tactics includes Seamanship, Naviga- tion, Damage Control, Administration, Ordnance, Gunnery, Communications, and Aviation. A se- mester before his graduation each student must go 159 on a cruise, where he gets some practical experi- ence in handling an officer ' s duties aboard ship. Almost anything can happen on a cruise — ask Plunkett — and they are usually good for a million laughs. The summer cruise showed twenty-six NROTC first classmen what they could expect when they got to sea. Arriving at Norfolk on June 24, the men first toured a carrier of the Essex class, which was in the yards undergoing repairs after suffering serious battle damage in the Pacific. Later in the week they visited several service schools, looked over the Naval Air Station (and other interesting spots that Norfolk is noted for), and received train- ing in gunnery by firing several rounds on the 5 inch batteries. One of the highlights of the trip was the day spent cruising at sea in a destroyer, where the ROTCs got a chance to examine the whole works — firing installations, radar apparatus, range find- ers, engine room, and last but not least fleet chow. The final day was a heavy one as they were brought face to face with the latest firefighting methods in the presence of blazing gasoline and oil. You can bet your bottom dollar that after all this the men were glad to hop aboard the nearest train for an eight-day leave to rest (???) In November the first classmen had an even more interesting cruise, according to all reports. This time almost the entire cruise was spent at sea, and the men even got to absorb the experience of an Atlantic storm. At one time the wind had risen to a forty-knot speed and the ship took one roll of forty-two degrees. Every variety of watch imag- inable was stood by the reluctant ROTCs, and their training also included man overboard drills, zigzagging, keeping station, and a fish feeding course which occupied several of the boys for a good part of the cruise. When the NROTC Unit changes over to a peace- time basis in September a phase in Duke ' s history will have ended. The campus will seem bare with- out the groups of navy-clad men swarming into the Dope Shop or standing at attention at inspection. No more boys will be marching up and down the field on Saturday afternoons to work off demerits. No more will East Campus have to worry about whether the Navy will get off study restrictions for a dance, or if they ' ll be caught if they come over to East when it ' s not a Liberty night. There will be no more Fleet Club Cabin Parties or Commo- dore Club Dances. There will be no more rushes after the Sunday Night Sings to get the Navy boys back to West on time. No more salutes ... no more white caps, gold braid, bell-bottom trousers, black ties. As yet the opportunities offered by the peace- time NROTC are not closely defined and the whole matter is mostly in the scuttlebutt stage. The Navy Department has emphasized, however, that it needs qualified Reservists and will give them equal opportunities with graduates of the Naval Academy. Several hundred V-5S, men who aspire to become Naval aviators, are already taking their preliminary work at Duke and more are expected to be sent here soon. During the war years the Navy program kept Duke going when the draft was swallowing up the normal supply of civilian college students; otherwise, fraternities and organ- izations would have had to become non-existent until the civilians regained their rightful place on the campus. Now that these men are swarming back to Duke it is appropriate that the trainees here realize how lucky they were that the Navy understood the necessity of having college-trained men and women to man its ships and subs and planes. They have served where the Navy deemed it wisest for them to serve, and they have done their best and will continue to dc their best to maintain a world in which peace and order are the watch- words. 160 NAVY PERSONNEL Capt.

BOOK IV ATHLETICS i ATHLETICS THLETICS are such an in- jtegral part of life in any college or university, and .bear so much more impor- I tance in this university, that a separate book is devoted entirely to it. The inter-collegiate program is by far the most important. Varsity teams represented Duke in football, tennis, wrestling and swimming the past year. Leading teams in this section as well as in other sections of the country were met, and the Blue and White teams have been respected and feared by opponents everywhere. The Duke football squad won its third consecu- tive Southern Conference crown, and again ranked as one of the top lo teams in the nation. The Blue Devil basebzdl team fared even better as it was ranked number three in the nation. All other varsity teams gave a good account of themselves in their respective fields. Even more important than the ability to win is the enjoyment of athletics and the making of ath- letes from ordinary individuals. This is where the Duke University intramural program comes in. The activities included in this program are so varied that every student in college is offered the chance to participate in those sports in which he is inter- ested. Athletics at Duke occupy a significant place in the spirit and life of the University. Large crowds attend all athletic activities. This division attempts to show the highlights in the field of athletics. 179 ATHLETICS DUKE ' S PROWESS IN ATHLETICS GIVES JOY TO THE UNDER GRADUATE AND THE OLD GRAD ALIKE FOOTBALL LL DUKE FOLLOWERS can be proud of the team which represented their great institution ' s contribution to the gridiron k.wars in the 1945 season. The team, composed principally of teen-aged freshmen were defeated only by the U. S. Military Academy and by the U. S. Naval Academy. These two service elevens were the most powerful football aggrega- tions in the nation, and Duke should be compli- mented for her fine showing against such oppo- sition. The Blue Devils won the remaining six games on their eight game schedule, and turned down several post-season bowl bids. Coach Eddie Ciuneron began the season with only a sprinkling of veterans and a flock of fresh- men, and should be highly praised for the fine team which he produced. DUKE 60; SOUTH CAROLINA o Flashing a point-a-minute offensive. Duke ' s Blue Devils smothered an outclassed band of Gamecocks from the University of South Carolina, 60 to o be- fore an opening day crowd of 12,000 fans in Duke Stadium. George Clark, Duke ' s sensational tailback, had a field day against the Sandlappcrs, as he streziked 65 yards for one touchdown, ran 46 yards for an- other, 29 yards for another, and threw a 56 yard pass play to wingback Jim LaRue. The Wilson Wonderboy played only a few minutes of the game, but covered himself with glory. The Blue Devils started their scoring early in the first quarter. With the game four minutes and 35 seconds old, George Clark faded back from his own 44 and tossed a scoring pass to LaRue. After this it was just a matter of holding down the score. Jim O ' Leary blocked a South Carolina punt 7 minutes later, and end Bill Duncan picked it up on the five and ran over for a score. Christner scored touchdown number three, Clark, numbers four and five. Duke led 33 to o at the half. The second half saw George Clark score two quick touchdowns, then leave the game for good. Freshman Bill Scupine hacked over from the four for the eighth Blue Devil score and Cliff Haggerty, big fullback crashed over for the ninth and final Duke tally. Al McCully, Bill Aumen, Bert Sutton and Ed Perini played outstanding ball for Duke. DUKE 76; BOGUE FIELD o The 1945 edition of Duke Blue Devils set a new scoring record as they defeated an unknown Boguc Field Marine Team 76 to o. Coach Cameron used approximately 50 men as the Blue Devils ran P 477 yards on the ground and 118 yards in the air. Bill Aumen ' s 64 yard punt return was the 180 most beautiful run of the day. Gordon Carver, sensational wingback, intercepted a Bogue Field pass in the first period and ran eighty-eight yards untouched for a score. After this crushing victory, Duke was ranked as the number one team in the nation. DUKE o; NAVY 21 Unleasing one of the greatest powerhouses ever put on display in Duke Stadium the Middies from the U. S. Naval Academy smothered Duke 2 1 to o before a raindrenched homecoming crowd of 45,000 fans. Duke ' s young, light crew was thrown on the de- fensive from the very beginning, and never had a chance against the high flying Midshipmen, who jumped into a 14 to o lead in the first nine minutes of the game. With All-American George Clark and AI McCul- ly injured, the Duke offensive was shot to pieces. Freshman Bill Aumen, who started the game in place of Clark, played a brilliant defensive game, but just lacked the necessary experience to puU a win out of the hat. Duke ' s Mote fumbled the opening kick-off, and the Blue Devils were in a hole on their own 14 yard line. Carver kicked out, but All-American Bob Kelly returned the punt to the Duke 23. A few plays later Bob Jenkins, Navy ' s great fullback, plowed over for a score. Hoernschemeyer scored Navy ' s second touchdown on a twenty-seven yard run. After this second score, Duke buckled down and fought the Middies on even terms until late in the fourth quarter when Navy ' s Clyde Scott raced 83 yards for the third and final touchdown of the game. Gordon Carver, Bill Aumen, Cliff Haggerty, Ed Sharkey, Ed Perini, and Ted Marshall played great ball for Duke. Their efforts helped hold down the score. DUKE 26; WAKE FOREST 19 In one of the most thrilling games ever played ' in Wzike Forest ' s Groves Stadium, Duke defeated the Demon Deacons 26 to ig in a see-saw battle. George Clark, who scored three touchdowns in this game, streaked 69 yards on the first play of the game to send Duke into a 6 to o lead. Wake For- est tied the score as Nick Sacrinity passed to Dave Harris. Clark raced 58 yards in the second quar- ter for a score, and Bert Sutton kicked the extra point. Wake Forest came right back and tied the score on a pass from Sacrinity to Demetriou. The third quarter was scoreless, but in the fourth, the firewords really exploded. Duke scored first; then Wake tied it up. Big Al McCuUy scored Duke ' s winning touchdown late in the fo urth quar- ter. The Deacons threatened twice, but Duke ' s determined forward wall withstood the drives. While Clark was the main cog in the Duke back- field, Ed Sharkey and Bear Knotts played great ball in the forward wall. DUKE 13; ARMY 48 The Blue Devils journeyed to New York to meet a strong and powerful Army aggregation, which was seeking its fourteenth consecutive victory on Navy Day, October 27. Our fighting Dukesters came out on the short end of the score of 48 to 13 to the Cadets who out weighed, out numbered, and out played our scrappy team. On the first Cadet play firom scrimmage, Tom Shorty McWilliams scored the first of seven Army touchdowns, on a 54 yard gallop around end as two Blue Devil tacklers missed him. Big, powerful Felix Doc Blanchard and Bob Stuart, a substitute right half back, each scored two of the c adets ' touchdowns. Glenn Davis was only able to score once against the fighting teen-agers from Duke. On the brighter side of the picture, the two Blue Devils who showed the customers that Duke was a 181 team to be contended with, were, tailback, George Clark, and end, Kelly Mote. Mote scored both of the Blue Devil touchdowns on passes from Clark, which were good for 31 and 5 yards, respectively, these two scores coming late in the last quarter. Mote had another distinction in this game — that of throwing the cadet Doc Blanchard for his only loss fi-om a scrimmage play all season. George Clark, the brilliant tailback, showed the fans that he was as good a passer as he was a runner when he completed ten of thirteen passes for a total of 146 yards. DUKE 14; GEORGIA TECH 6 Bouncing back after a terrific lacing by Army, Duke defeated Ga. Tech, 14 to 6, in a mud battle in Atlanta. Fred Palladino, husky Duke fullback, scored both Blue Devil touchdowns after George Clark set them up. Georgia Tech scored late in the fourth quar- ter on George Mathews ' 13 yard sweep around Duke ' s left end. All morning, rains turned the playing field into a sea of mud that had the players covered from head to toe. It was so dark from the third quarter on, that it was hard to distinguish the players. Neither team threatened in the first qucu-ter, but Palladino smashed over from the three early in the second period. Duke held this 7 to o lead at the half-way mark. They increased this advantage to 14 to o before the second half was three minutes old. George Clark electrified the crowd with a sensational 47 yard run. He was downed on the two and Palladino smashed over on the next play. Although the score was only 14 to 6, the game was all Duke. The scrappy Yellow Jackets never gave up, however, and thus made the game an interesting one. George Clark, playing the last game of his college career, performed in true All-American style. Gor- don Carver ' s punting was brilliant, and Kelly Mote stood out in the line, along with Perini and Mar- shall. DUKE 26; N. C. STATE 13 Duke ' s new line-up after the departure of Clark, LaRue and Knotts defeated a stubborn and hard fighting N. C. State team, 26 to 13, in another thrilling game in Duke Stadium, before 1 8,000 fans. Coach Eddie Cameron ' s crew proved too power- ful for the smaller Wolfpack gridders, and never trailed after Gordon Carver intercepted a pass early in the first quarter and raced 40 yards to score. State ' s Turner kept the ' Pack in the ballg ame with his expert passing, kicking and running. His 105 yard run with an intercepted pass in the third quarter was one of the longest and most brilliant runs of the year. Bettis Herlong started for the departed George Clark, and didn ' t fare too well. Hodges played a great game, and served notice that he would be fighting for that starting tailback post. Hodges scored two of the Blue Devils ' four touchdowns. Palladino and Carver scored the other two. Perini played a great game in the Duke forward wall. DUKE 14; CAROLINA 7 The Blue Devils climaxed a very successful sea- son by turning back a hard fighting and stubborn eleven from the University of North Carolina before 45,000 spectators. The Dukesters won their third consecutive State and Southern Conference cham- pionships with this victory. Little Roland Hodges scored one of the Blue Devil touchdowns on a run around end from the thirteen yard line. Big Fred Palladino smashed over from the three yard line to climax a 66 yard march in the second period. Johnny Kriza was the player who saved the day for the Dukesters when he intercepted a pass in the fourth quarter and raced it back 52 yards to halt the Tar Heels ' march which had reached the Blue Devils ' fifteen yard line. Ed Perini, Ed Sharkey, Jake Poole, and Kelley Mote were the top defensive men in the Blue Devil line. It took Carl Snavely ' s teen-age scrappers six plays after the kickoff in the second half to score a touchdown. The Tar Heels were completing passes in the fourth quarter that would have netted them a touchdown, but Gorman hit Kriza in the midsection with an otherwise perfect pass, almost giving big Johnny a touchdown of his own. BASKETBALL The basketball team which represented Duke University during the 1 945-46 season was one of its greatest in recent years. Its record of 17 wins in 23 starts proves this point. 182 The initial practice in November saw lettermen George Brunner, Bob Roelke, Ted Green, and Ed Koeffenberger return for another year at the hard- wood game. Dick Whiting, an AIl-American guard at Muhlenbury last year, was transferred to Duke in the Naval unit and added great strength. Many new candidates made names for themselves as the season got underway. Tom Cordell, Tom Williams, Dick Gordon, and Buck Cheek made the headlines early in the campaign. John E. (Bub- ber) Seward, All-Southern forward in 1943, re- turned from the wars and put the spark into the Duke quint which led to the fire which secured national recognition for the men of Coach Jerry Gerard. Doug Anshon, another member of the famous 1942-43 Duke team, also returned from the service and added great strength. The season got under way when the strong Camp Perry, Virginia, sailors came to Duke Gym on December 4. Duke lost this hard-fought game by a 39-35 score. Dick Whiting led the Blue Devil scoring as he poured in 8 points. On December 7 the Big Blue traveled to Norfolk, Virginia, where they lost to the powerful Norfolk Naval Training Station by a 57-51 score. Although Duke led for the first ten minutes, N. T. S. came from behind and went on to win the contest. Ed Koff ' enberger and Dick Whiting each had 14 points to lead Duke ' s attack. Duke finally broke into the victory column on December 14, as Davidson College fell before the Big Blue, 50-23, in Duke Gym. George Brunner garnered 9 points to lead the scoring parade. In the last game before the Christmas holidays, the Gerardmen traveled to Lynchburg, Virginia, where they met and defeated the University of Virginia, 48-38. The Dukesters stopped a late Virginia rally, then poured in a flurry of points to win. Koffenberger and Gordon, with 15 and 9 points respectively, led the Duke off ensive. The first game after the holidays saw Duke travel to Columbia, South Carolina, where they defeated the University of South Carolina, 52-35. Ed Kof- fenberger led Duke ' s scoring parade with 1 4 points, while the floor play of Bubber Seward, playing his first game for the Blue Devils since 1943, was out- standing. He also gathered 10 points. The Uni- versity of Maryland was added to Duke ' s string of victims on January 4, as the Blue Devils walloped the Old Liners by a 59-25 score. Buch Cheek, All-State forward at Durham High last year, led the scoring attack with 16 points. Gordon had 10, Koff ' enberger 9. Duke made three v ins in as many nights as Davidson fell before the Devils, 55-27. Koff enberger ' s 19 points led the team ' s scoring. On January 9, the Blue Devils pulled one of the upsets of the year, as they downed the University of North Carolina, 51-46, in an exciting game played in Chapel Hill. Six thousand fans roared themselves hoarse as the end of the regular game saw the score tied at 45-45. Duke had led most of the way, but were trailing, 45-43, with 30 seconds left to play. Big Ed Koffenberger tied the score with his field goal in the closing seconds. The extra period was all Duke. Dick Gordon had a field goal and Whiting had two to ice the game. Hundreds of fans were turned away from this game due to a complete sell-out. Koffenberger and Seward led Duke scoring, each getting 14 points. Beautiful teamwork by the Gerardmen brought victory. Riding in all its glory, the Dukesmen won two more Southern Conference games as they edged out State, 46-34, in a late rally and Wake Forest, 43-38. Koff ' enberger, Seward, and Whiting again played brilliant games. On January 1 5, the Devils got revenge for an early season setback as they de- feated Norfolk Naval Training Station, 31-22, in a 183 tight defensive game reeled off in Duke Gym. Both teams were badly ofi form and missed copious shots. January i8 found the Blue Devils way down in Atlanta, Georgia, where they met and defeated Georgia Tech, 54-39, in a rough and tumble game. Thirty-two personal fouls were called in the game, eighteen of them on Tech. Duke had to overcome an early Yellow Jacket lead before winning the game. Whiting ' s 1 1 points were high for the night. The next night the Devils stopped off at Clemson, South Carolina, to take on the strong Clemson Co l- lege Tigers, and emerged victorious by a 42-29 score. This was Duke ' s eleventh consecutive win and their eighth straight Southern Conference win. Seward played a brilliant floor game and poured in 19 points. The Dukesters stretched their victory string to 12 straight, as they next defeated South Czu-olina, 55-33, in Duke Gym. Duke took an early lead and was never headed. Bubber Seward played another great game and scored 1 9 points. On January 25, the Duke team, riding high on a i2-game winning streak, was defeated by Mary- land, 43-38, in a startling upset. The game, played in Maryland ' s Gym, kept the 2,500 fans on their feet the entire night. The score was tied, 38-38, with one minute to play. Maryland secured two quick field goals and a free shot to ice the game. Koffenberger ' s 1 3 points led Duke. Duke met her second consecutive defeat the next day at Annap- olis, Maryland, when the undefeated Middies of the U. S. Naval Academy handed the Devils a 51-40 shellacking. Duke held a 40-38 lead, but when Bubber Seward fouled out. Navy scored 1 1 points in the last two and a half minutes to win the game, much to the delight of the sell-out crowd of 4,500 partisan fans who saw the contest. Koffenberger had 16 points and Whiting 12 to pace Duke ' s losing cause. On January 29, the Blue Devils returned home, where they pulled the biggest upset of the year in defeating the Wright Field, Ohio, Kittyhawks, 44-43, in one of the most thrilling games ever played in Duke Gym. Wright Field, ranked number one in the nation and losers in only one contest — that to the world ' s champion professional Zoiloners by one point — went down before a hard-fighting Duke quint which would never say quit and which played its best game of the year. The exciting game kept the large crowd on its feet most of the night. The Kittyhawks, composed of several former All-Amer- icans, began clicking in the second half, and things looked bad for the Blue Devils. However, the boys in blue kept on fighting and emerged trium- phant. Whiting played one of the best games of his career and scored 14 points. Koffenberger, Seward and Ansbon also played brilliantly. Following this great victory, Duke defeated North Carolina State, 56-33, and Wake Forest, 32-29. Both games were played in Duke Gym, and both games saw Duke come from behind to win. Seward, Whiting, Gordon, and Koffen- berger played excellent games. On February 9, the Blue Devils traveled to Philadelphia, where they absorbed their worst defeat of the year at the hands of Temple Univer- sity. The Owls, who were red hot that night in Convention Hall, walloped the Gerardmen by a 64-38 score. The ease with which Temple seemed to win the game amazed the 6,000 fans who turned out for the game. Koffenberger and Seward led Duke ' s losing cause. In a return game with Georgia Tech, Duke de- feated the Yellow Jackets, 73-51, before almost 5,000 fans in Duke Gym. The rough game in which 36 personal fouls were called — 2 1 on Tech — saw Duke pull away in the second half of the ball game, as the bigger and taller Techmen tired. Seward, gamed 18 points, Koffenberger 16, and Robinson 12 to lead Duke to victory. Two nights later, the Devils spanked Clemson College, 61-33, in a very dull game which saw the Tigers very much off form. Buck Cheek secured 20 points to pace the Blue Devil win. The Duke Blue Devil basketball team closed its season on February 16, as it played host to the high flying University of North Carolina Tar Heels. Over 9,000 fans, largest crowd ever to see a basket- ball game in the south, saw the fighting Blue Devils go down in defeat, 54-44, after a hard fought, ex- citing game. Duke held an upperhand the entire first half, but Carolina, led by the great Bones McKinney, pulled away early in the second period. Ed Koffenberger played a great game and looped in 16 points for Duke. Dick Whiting had 1 1 points and Bubber Seward had 8. Although Duke ' s shooting was off, the game was a very interesting one. By winning this game, Carolina copped first place over Duke in the Southern Conference race. 184 TRACK Duke ' s inexperienced Track team opened its season on April 7 by losing to a powerful N. C. Pre-flight team 73 to 57. Duke ' s Jim LaRue was high sco rer in the meet as he garnered 13 points. He had first places in the 100 and 220. Nordin was first in the 1 20 high hurdles and Palumbo won the javelin throw. April 21 saw the Blue Devils travel to Annapolis to engage the powerful U. S. Naval Academy tracksters. The Middies emerged triumphant by a 107 to 12 score. Duke ' s only first place was taken by Jim LaRue in the 220. The next meet was a return engagement with N. C. Pre-flight in Duke Stadium. The buzz boys walked off with an 80 to 46 win. Frank Irwin and Jim LaRue captured two first places each to lead the Duke scoring. Duke ' s next meet was a triangular affair, staged in Duke Stadium on May 5. The Cherry Point Marines and the Hunter Field, Georgia fliers fur- nished the opposition. Duke won the meet, as they secured 633 points as compared with 49 H for Cherry Point and 41 for Hunter Field. War- ren Nordin sparked the Blue Devil attack, as he captured first places in both the high and the low hurdles. LaRue won the 220 yard dash and Irwin won the discus. May 13 saw the Devils travel to Chapel Hill, where they absorbed a 72 to 59 licking by North Carolina University. The sensational Jim LaRue paced the Duke attack by securing 1 3 points. He had first places in the 100 and the 220. Frank Irwin and Warren Nordin each collected 10 points to help the unsuccessful Duke cause. Irwin had firsts in the shot put and the discus. Nordin was first in the high hurdles. Duke next engaged the University of Virginia in Duke Stadium on May 26 — and were defeated by the Cavaliers a 64 to 56 score. Nordin, LaRue and Irwin were again the outstanding stars for Duke. The final meet of the season saw Duke take sec- ond place honors in the Carolina A.A.U. event, staged at the University of N. C. N. C. U. won the meet by amassing 60 points to Duke ' s 50. Nor- din won the no high hurdles, LaRue won the 220 yard dash, and the 440 yard relay team, composed of Jim LaRue, Bill Aumen, Bill Scupine and Del- mar Robinson, copped first place. Although their won-loss record does not appear too potent, the Blue Devils did have a good team, as proved by some of the scores. Although they did not win many first places, such men as Aumen, Robinson, Palumbo, Stevenson, and Scupine added many valuable second place points to Duke scores. Coach Chamber did a fine job with his bunch of rookie tracksters. WRESTLING In the field of wrestling Duke produced another championship team in 1946. The Duke Devil grapplers were declared Southern Conference Co- Champions with the University of North Carolina. The first match of the season took place in the Indoor Stadium, and Duke went down in defeat fourteen to twelve to Georgia Tech. The match was not decided until the final bout of the evening, when Tech ' s Goode decisioned Tom Gorsuch. Bob Loucks, Bill Leitzinger, John Delavadora, and Len Delenbarger won their matches for Duke. The next night, the Cavaliers of the University of Virginia tied the Dukesters, fourteen to fourteen. Leitzinger, Delavadora, Miller and Delenbarger won their matches. The next week-end was the Blue Devils travel to Atlanta, Georgia, for a return engagement with Georgia Tech ' s Yellow Jackets. Coach Potter had revised his team during the week, and the results proved successful. Miller dropped from the 128 pound class down to 121. Hay dropped from 1 36 to 128. Bob Loucks remained in the 136 pound slot, as did Leitzinger in the 145. Al Stock, a 185 newcomer, took over the 155 pound position, Dela- vadova and Delanberger remained in the 165 and 175 pound positions respectively, and Muncey Funk replaced Tom Gorsuch in the unlimited class. Duke swamped Tech by a twenty-two to eight score. Hay, Loucks, Leitzinger, Stock, Dela- vadora, and Delenbarger won their matches. The Duke team reached its height of glory the next week-end as it defeated a previously unbeaten, and powerful. University of North Carolina team nineteen to eleven. This hotly contested match took place in Carolina ' s Woollen Gymnasium. Mil- ler, Hay, Stork, Leitzinger and Delenbarger won their matches. John Delavadora ' s unbeaten rec- ord was shattered by Carolina ' s Al Blumenthal as the Tar Heel won a close three to two decision. Bob Loucks gave Carolina ' s undefeated Tom Hearn an exciting battle before losing six to four in the last thirty seconds. Hay and Delenbarger won their matches on pins. The high flying Blue Devil grunt and groan aces next took on the Appalachian State Teacher ' s College matmen in the Indoor Stadium, and emerged triumphant by a twenty-eight to nothing score. Delavadora and Hay pinned their op- ponents. The final match of the season took place in the Duke Gym on February 12. The University of North Carolina gained revenge for an earlier defeat at the hands of the Blue Devils as they tri- umphed by a fourteen to twelve score. Carolina won the match and a share of the conference title in the last bout of the evening, as Al Crawford, the Tar Heel ' s former National A.A.U. Champ pinned Duke ' s Funk. Miller, Hay, Leitzinger and Dela- vadora won their matches for Duke. Although the Blue Devils ' record showed only three wins against two losses and a tie, this was one of the best wrestling teams that has represented Duke in many years. Bill Leitzinger was sensa- tional as he went through the season undefeated. Hay was undefeated in the four matches in which he fought. John Delavadora, former New Jersey State champ, lost only one match. Bob Loucks looked very impressive in the 136 pound division, also. CROSS COUNTRY An aggregation of distance runners, led by J. B. Davis, won three out of six dual meets in what turned out to be a successful season for the cross country team. Davis, one of the best distance men seen around here in a long time, took five first places in six meets. The team ' s strength was also bolstered by two returning lettermen from the 1944 team, Fred Long and Walter Rosenberg. Besides Davis, other first year men on the team were Richard Powers, Ronald Frase, Curtis Brown, and Larry Carr. The coach was Jack Persons, and the manager Stan Greek Mavromates. The first meet was with the University of North Carolina, who won by a score of 20-46. Next the squad journeyed to Annapolis to run against the 1944 intercollegiate champions, the boys from the United States Naval Academy. Navy won the meet 15-40. Then the team went to Atlanta to compete with Georgia Tech. This time the Duke runners really went to town, winning in a terrific rainstorm by a score of 18 to 41. Next came a meet with North Carolina State, which the Blue Devils won 23 to 32. Then another engagement with Carolina was lost 30 to 20. Finally the team went to Charlottesville, where the University of Virginia was defeated 24 to 37. The length of the courses varied from two and two-thirds miles at Georgia Tech, to four and one- fourth miles at the Naval Academy. The course at Duke is three and one-eighth miles long. Letters were awarded to Davis, Long, Rosen- berg, Powers, Frase, Brown, Carr, and the man- ager, Mavromates. BASEBALL Duke followers are proud of the baseball team which represented their alma mater in 1944, al- though this team did not win the championship. When Coach Colby Jack Coombs issued the first call for practice early in April, he was greeted by approximately fifty candidates, three-fourths of whom were green, inexperienced freshmen. After several weeks of earnest practice. Coach Coombs chose his starting line-up for the opening game with Cherry Point Marines. To freshman Jim Hopkins went the honor of 186 pitching the first ball of a new season. Hopkins pitched the first three innings, and was relieved by Freshman Lee Spears and Letterman Lefty Lee Griffeth, who also pitched three inning turns. Spears was charged with the 4 to 3 loss to the pow- erful Marine nine. Slugging Roy Talcott blasted a home run, while Tommy Davis had three hits in four trips to the plate. On April 26, Freshman Edward Mulvey received the starting call on the mound, as Duke played host to a strong Camp Butner team. Al DeRoga- tis and Lee Griffeth also pitched three innings each. Mulvey was charged with the 8 to 2 loss. Roy Talcott secured Duke ' s longest hit of the game — a booming triple to deep right field, but was thrown out while trying to stretch the hit into a home run. On April 28, the Coombsmen traveled to Raleigh to take on North Carolina State in the first Ration League game for the Blue Devils. Lefty Lee Griffeth pitched a brilliant game; as he fanned twelve of the Wolfpack batsmen, and gave up only five hits. Frank Goon Little, first baseman, led the Blue Devil attack, with 2 for 2. John Posavec, freshman shortstop played a great game as the Blue Devils walked off with a 9 to i victory. On May 2, Duke met N. C. State in Coombs Park, and emerged victorious by 5 to 2 in a game, which was played in a slow, cold rain. Griffeth gave up eight hits and fanned six, to get credit for his second consecutive win. John Posavec played another great game at short, and along with Bob Plosica, led the Blue Devil hitting attack. Each secured two hits in four trips to the plate. Traveling to Chapel Hill on May 5, the boys in blue engaged N. C. Pre-Flight in one of the most dramatic games of the season. Tom Davis ' home run in the fifth inning with one man on base tied the game at six to six. Then, with two out in the ninth, 2 men on base, and two strikes on the batter, Tom Davis hit his second home run of the game. Then in the eleventh inning, Johnny Posavec was safe on an error, stole second, and romped home with the game-winning run on Roy Talcott, and Clark paced Duke ' s attack, each securing three hits. Al DeRogatis pitched the first six innings, and was relieved by Lee Griffeth, who got credit for the win. The following week, N. C. State broke a six year jinx, as they defeated Duke 8 to 7, in another eleven inning thriller. Jim Hopkins started the game for Duke, but had to secure relief from Al DeRogatis. Griffeth took over the mound duties in the eighth. In the eleventh inning, Jimmy Wilson of State led off with a booming triple to deep center and scored a moment later as Stan Kohler drove a long sacri- fice fly to left field. Thus, Griffeth was charged with the loss. George Clark led Duke with three for five. Plosica, Little, and Davis had two hits in five trips. The next Saturday, N. C. State came to Duke to try to make it two victories in a row, and almost succeeded. Duke finally emerged victorious by the score of sixteen to fifteen. Thirty-three hits (in- cluding three homers, three triples and three doubles) featured the slugfest, which was played in a driving rain. Ed Perini hit a home run in the first inning. Talcott, with three for six, led the hitting parade for Duke. Griffeth had two hits and scored four runs. Al Perry had four for six to lead State. On May 16, Duke lost its first Ration League game to the Cloudbusters of N. C. Pre-FIight. The future flyers invaded Methodists Flats with blood in their eyes, after losing a close game the last time the two teams met. Al DeRogatis started for Duke, but was ineffective. George Russell fared no bet- ter, and was relieved by Lee Griffeth. Ed Perini had a homer and three singles, and George Clark continued his hot pace with three for five. Johnny Posavec also had four for six. Al DeRogatis was charged with the loss. 187 On May 1 9, the Coombsmen traveled to Anna- olis, Md. to lock horns with the unbeaten Naval Academy nine. Lee Griffeth pitched a sterling six-hit win for the Blue Devils. He struck out eleven batsmen and walked only two. Duke scored five times in the second inning to ice the game. Griffeth led the hitting also, with three for five. Clark had two for five. On May 23, Duke opened an all-important four game series with the University of North Carolina, on Emerson Field, Chapel Hill, N. C. A capacity crowd saw Lee Griffeth pitch another brilliant game, as he allowed the Tar Heels only four hits while Duke pounded out a 10 to 4 victory. Roy Talcott homered in the fifth. Ed Perini led Duke, with two for three. Charley Hayne of Carolina pitched his heart out, but nine errors by his team- mates proved too much. Duke lost another game to Carolina Pre-Flight on May 26, this time by a twelve to eight score. Roy Talcott started on the mound for Duke, and pitched good ball for three innings. In the fourth, he was driven from the hill, being relieved by Lee Griffeth, who was charged with the loss. Hopkins relieved Griffeth in the eighth, but the damage had already been done. Talcott had three for five; Davis and Clark, two for three. On May 20, Lee Griffeth pitched another great game, as he gave Carolina only three hits and Duke defeated the Tar Heels for the second consecutive time. The score was three to two. Perini had two for three, while John Lauro had a triple. Clark scored the winning run in the seventh on Talcott ' s hot single between second and third. On Saturday, June 2, the Blue Devils took time off from Ration League play and traveled to Camp Butner to tackle the strong Warrior nine, before 4,000 convalescent patients. DeRogatis gave up only six hits, as his mates pounded out sixteen safeties. Roy Talcott had four for six; Clark, three for five. Davis stole four bases. Duke won, 14 to 4, The crucial series with North Carolina was re- sumed on June 6 before another capacity audience at Chapel Hill. The Tar Heels turned the tables, winning in a walk-a-way — 16 to 3. Lee Griffeth was blasted for five runs in the first two innings and was relieved by Al DeRogatis, who fared no better. Allan Elger of Carolina had a homer and two doubles in four trips, his homer in the fifth being one of the longest ever hit at Emerson Field. Tal- cott, with three for five and Plosica and Clark with two for five led the Duke attack. In their fourth and deciding game of the season, North Carolina captured the Ration League pen- nant over Duke in a sensational twelve inning game, played in Duke Park. The largest crowd of the season saw Lefty Lee Griffeth hook up with Carolina ' s Charley Hayne in a beautiful pitching duel. In the first inning with two away, and two men on base, Duke catcher John Lauro threw Elger ' s slow roller away at first . . . two runs soaring, and Elger went to third. He scored a moment later. Griffeth then pitched ten consecutive scoreless in- nings. Duke tied the game in the ninth inning, and had the winning run on third. This runner, John Lauro, was caught off base, however, and the game went into extra innings. George Thomp- son ' s long fly brought in the winning run for Caro- lina in the 12 th. Tom Davis led Duke ' s hitting attack with four for five. Plosica and Little had two for four. The Blue Devils closed their season on June 1 3, by winning another thriller from N. C. Pre-Flight. Pitcher Griffeth ' s home run in the tenth inning gave the Devils the 4 to 3 victory. Perini, Clark, Plosica, and Griffeth had two hits in five trips. Lee Griffeth carved himself a niche in Duke ' s hall of fame, as he bore the burden of pitching. He won eight and lost four, while pitching in 14 games. Second baseman George Clark won the League batting title with a sensational .467 average. Duke followers thus have reason to be proud of its young 1945 baseball team. It did itself right proud. The schedule for 1946 is as Follows: March 27 — Michigan State, Durham. April 3 — Ohio University, Durham. April 6— V. P. I., Durham. April 10 — Marine Institute, Durham.

TENNIS One glance at the season ' s record of 6 wins and 5 losses for Coach Box Cox ' s netmen would give a false impression of what was a really successful season. Faced with the usual lack of material, Coach Cox began his season with but two letter men: Chuck Tichenor, stalwart number one man of the 1 944 season, and Bob Norris, who operated as num- ber 4 in the last season. Led by them, and shaping a team from the 30 odd candidates, Coach Cox took his team to its second successive Southern Confer- ence crown. The first match, on April 20, brought a young, but strong, team from William and Mary. The Dukesters took a trimming 5-2 with only Napier and Wyeth winning for Duke. The trip to At- lanta t he next day was even more a disappointment, as the Devils were subdued by the racquet men of Georgia Tech, 9-1. Rains turned in the only win for Duke. The Cherry Point Marines, led by ex-Duke star Ray Nasher, were the first to fall before the Duke men, as the Blue Devils won 6-4. Tichenor de- feated Nasher easily, and wins were also turned in by Norris, Kelly, Wyeth, Rains, and the Kelly- Norris doubles team. On April 28 the net team took on a young team from the Citadel and went away with a very de- cisive victory, 7-0. The trip to Annapolis on the following week-end was not as successful. The Middies shook the Blue Devils by the score of 8-1. Chuck Tichenor saved the Duke men from a shutout by winning over the favored Crawford in an exciting match. Still stinging from the Navy defeat, the netters fared little better when they took on the traditional rivals from Chapel Hill and were smitten by a de- cisive 7-2 score. Tichenor again was the only singles winner, and he also teamed with Norris to take the number i doubles. Carolina Pre-Flight was Duke ' s next victim in a close match, 5-4. The end of the return match with Georgia Tech found the Dukesters on the short end, but this time at only 6-3. Green and Wyeth won in the singles, and Green teamed with Rains to take the number 3 doubles. Duke took on the Qoudbusters of Carolina Prc- Flight again, and came away with a decisive 7-2 victory. On June 2 the Blue Devils journeyed to the Uni- versity of Virginia to hand the Cavaliers a close defeat, 5-4. Duke won the i, 2, 3 singles and ist and 3rd doubles. The Dukesters met the Tar Heels of U. N. C. in a match on their home court on June 5, and re- venged their past defeat by winning 5-4. Wins were registered by Tichenor, Kelly, Green and Wyeth in the singles, and a victory by Tichenor- Norris in the number i doubles gave the Devils the win that made the season a success. Letters were given to Chuck Tichenor, Bob Nor- ris, James Kelly, Ted Green, Baxter Napier, Buzz Wyeth, Jim Rains, and Doc Walker, manager. SOUTHERN CONFERENCE BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT The twenty-fifth annual Southern Conference Basketball tournament began on February 28 in Raleigh ' s Memorial Auditorium. After a long, hard season, eight good teams were chosen for the tournament on the merit of their season ' s play and records. These teams were: George Washington University, University of North Carolina, Virginia Tech, North Carolina State, University of Mary- land, Wake Forest, William and Mary, and Duke University. North Carolina ' s White Phantoms, who had one of the best records in the nation, 189 were seeded number one and were selected by all sports ' writers to win the Conference Champion- ship. Duke was seeded second. Virginia Tech ' s Gobblers and George Washing- ton ' s Colonials pried the lid off the annual tourney, as they met in a rather dull, listless game before a capacity crowd. Virginia Tech emerged trium- phant by a 39-33 score. The Colonials pulled into a 5-0 lead early in the game, but midway the first half, the lead began changing hands with every basket. Joe Ruddell and Harry Bushkar, Tech stars, began hitting the hoop late in the game, and the Gobblers pulled away. Harris had eleven points, as did Ruddell, to lead the Tech attack. Moffatt, Kennedy, and Robertson starred for George Washington. Barry Kriesberg, big center, was held to three points. The same afternoon Duke University emerged as victors over North Carolina State in a game which was decided in an extra period. The Blue Devils, who were very much off their usual form, trailed for most of the game, but really got hot in the over- time period. With only two minutes left to play. State held a 36-32 lead over the Big Blue. How- ever, two quick baskets by Koffenberger and Seward tied the game and staved off defeat. In the overtime period, Koffenberger in one of his beautiful left-handed hook shots put Duke out front. Whiting connected with a long, set shot, and Duke led 40-36. Howard Turner ' s one-hand shot made the score 40-38, and Duke ' s Doug Ausbon retaliated to regain the four point lead. Dick Gordon put the game on ice by scoring on a crip shot just a second before the final whistle. Final score was Duke 44, North Carolina State 38. State surprised everyone by this great play against the Devils. Their line-up of Morris, Hartzog, Boyer, Nickels, and Turner carried the battle to the heavily favored Dukes. Although Duke played a ragged game, Ed Koffenberger and Bubber Seward showed frequent signs of brilliance, as did Dick Whiting. Koffenberger had 16 points, for scoring honors. That night, Wake Forest turned on the steam in the second half to wallop William and Mary, 42-3 1 . All the Deacons played well, and Walters and Hineman went the entire route. Hineman led the scoring with 14 points. This was another un- interesting game, in which Wake Forest apparently scored at will. The final game of the opening round saw North Carolina ' s Tar Heels win with ease over Maryland, 54-27. The Phantoms were playing in the tourney minus the services of three first-stringers. Maryland took an early lead, but, when Dillon, McKinney, and Co. began rolling, there was no stopping them. Dillon made 13 points for top scoring honors, while Jordan and McKinney added 10 and 9 respectively. Gleas- ner ' s 7 points led Maryland. The second round of the tourney, which was held on Friday, March i , saw Duke tackle Virginia Tech and North Carolina take on Wake Forest. Another capacity crowd saw the semi-finals. Duke won its way to the finals by defeating V. P. I., 44-38, in a very hard fought game. The Blue Devils knew they were in for a fight until the final gun. The lead changed hands thirteen times, and the score was tied on eight occasions. Koffen- berger put Duke into an early 4-0 lead shortly after the game began with two beautiful crip shots. Bushkar of Tech then sank two crips to tie the score. The teams then battled on even terms for the re- mainder of the half, the score being 16-16 at inter- mission. In the second half, Duke ' s Doug Ausbon put the Blue Devils out front by hooking a basket in after the tipoff. Whiting increased the lead to 20-16 with another hook shot. Tech ' s Marousek scored a basket to put the Gobblers only one point behind. Ausbon got a crip, but Tech then took a 24-23 lead on Ruddell ' s two quick baskets. The lead then changed hands several times until Gordon and Seward sank two quick baskets with only one minute remaining. The game ended without further scoring and with Duke winning, 44-38. In one of the biggest basketball upsets of the year, Wake Forest College ' s Demon Deacons de- feated North Carolina ' s high-flying White Phan- toms, 31-29. The 4,000 fans who saw this game sat stunned and amazed as the Deacons, slaughtered twice by Carolina during the regular season, rose up and knocked off the tourney favorite. The battling Deacons did not win on a fluke that night. They clearly were the better team, as they com- pletely outplayed the Tar Heels. It looked as if Carolina were going to win with ease early in the game as they ran up an 8-2 lead. Then the Oeacs went to work, led by Williams, Walters, and 190 Lougee. Lougee ' s beautiful one-hander from the right side at 16:28 tied the score at 13-all. Each team made two more baskets and left the floor at the half with the score tied, 17-17. The Deacons were playing an inspired game of defense, with Hinerman doing a good job of checking Dillon, and Walters doing equally as well with McKinney. The action was hard and rough, and the Deacons kept in the game by their great work under the Carolina basket. Three baskets by Williams, along with two free throws made good by the Tar Heels, gave Wake Forest a 23-19 lead early in the second half. The lead exchanged hands several times before Wil- liam ' s overhead shot gave the Deacons a 29-26 lead with only two and one-half minutes remaining. Bones McKinney made a free throw for Carolina to make it 29-27. Hinerman sank a beautiful crip shot to make the score 31-27. Seconds after McKinney made two free shots, the game ended with the Demon Deacons winning, 31-29. Carolina could do nothing against the excellent defense put up by Wake Forest. Rangy Deron Walters completely bottled up Bones McKinney who scored only one field goal. John Dillon, the Conference ' s leading scorer, was held to one goal by Hinerman. Williams scored 12 points to lead the Deacs, followed by Lougee ' s nine. The Tar Heels could not stop Williams ' overhead shots, and thus were eliminated from the tourney. Wake Forest entered the finals for the first time in its history . Duke ' s Blue Devils, who had to struggle to get by North Carolina State and Virginia Tech in order to get into the tourney finals, finally hit their real stride on Saturday night, March 2, and won the championship by slaughtering Wake Forest, 49-30, before another capacity crowd of 4,000 fans. The Big Blue, playing in the finals for the seventh straight year, won their fifth Conference title since 1938- The Dukes, led by their starting line-up of Sew- ard, Koffenberger, Whiting, Gordon, and Ausbon, were calm and confident as they turned in their best game of the tournament. The Deacons did not come up to their great form of the night before, even though they tried hard. Duke controlled the play under both back- boards most of the game, and this was certainly a deciding factor in the outcome of the game. After six minutes and thirty-eight seconds of play had elapsed, the score was tied at 6-6. Then Doug Ausbon threw in a crip to give the Devils the lead, a lead which they never relinquished. Duke really got hot and led, 24-16, at intermission. The beginning of the second half saw Wake Forest make two quick baskets before Koffenberger scored for Duke. Then the Devils, rolling on all cylinders, ran the score up to 43-27 before Williams connected again for Wake Froest. With four min- utes left to play, Seward broke around Hinerman and laid one in to give Duke a 45-29 lead. Wil- liams made a free throw for the Deacs; then Aus- bon made a crip for Duke with two minutes left to play. Ausbon then took a pass from Koffenberger and made another crip shot. With 25 seconds left to play. Duke ' s Coach Jerry Gerard sent in the Blue Devils reserves. The game ended without further scoring and with Duke University taking its fifth Southern Conference championship, 49-30. The Blue Devils were razor-sharp in this cham- pionship, and it is doubtful whether any team in the nation could have beaten them that night. Veteran players Bubber Seward, Ed Koffenberger, and Dick Whiting were sensational, and Doug Ausbon and Dick Gordon shone brightly in their first championship game. Koffenberger and Aus- bon, each with 1 1 points, led the Duke attack, being followed by Whiting ' s i o points and Seward ' s nine. The Wake Forest Deacons played good ball but were not up to their standards which they had exhibited the night before in defeating Carolina. Williams and Hinerman played great ball to lead the Deacons in their losing cause. Following the close of the Southern Conference Tournament, the All-Tournament team was an- nounced. Duke, the Conference champions, placed three men on this honor five. Ed Koffenberger, sensational center and leading scorer in the tour- ney, was a unanimous choice. Bubber Seward, a forward, and Dick Whiting, guard, also won po- sitions. Abner Williams and Harry Bushkar, both of Wake Forest, completed the first five. The second team was made up of John Dillon of Caro- lina and Deron Walters of Wake Forest, forwards; Bones McKinney of Carolina, center; and Joe Hinerman and Jim Jordan of Wake Forest and Carolina respectively, guards. 101 5|r%:riroi - . ..aiMi .. n. =3., «.■ , ' ?: 48 .■ .

J BOOK V FEATURES FEATURES OMING BACK to Duke last fall was like a begin- ' ning — a beginning of some- , thing most all Dukes and Dutchesses had not known ' before. It was a beginning of peace-time life at Duke. With the return of former Duke boys, and the arrival of new civilians, the entire attitude of the campus changed from one concerned with the privileges and immunities of war on the campus, to one concerned with planning for a wide varie- ty of peace-time activities at Duke. Old Duke boys, new ones, and an increased num- ber of over-exuberant co-eds, brought back the prewar Duke spirit. This spirit was brought out particularly at the pep rallies, the football games, and the basketball games. More emphasis was placed on dances. Time and money far exceeded the limitations placed on such social functions during the war. Whether or not it may be attributed to the return of peace, co-eds have been given added privileges. Twelve o ' clock permission on Saturday night is a welcome addition, and the girls may attend Cabin Parties and dances without having to sign their lives away. Students have been given a freerer reign in exercising their desires. We have not by any means lost all trace of the war. The ROTC still adds military glamour to Dearauldook, and the Navy Ball and ROTC Ball were better attended than ever before. Yes, returning to Duke last fall was a beginning. But now the re-conversion is past its infancy. Normality, gaiety, and a more carefree attitude have been re-injected into campus life. Duke is rapidly becoming what it used to be. 211 FEATURES ALL CAMPUS PERSONALITIES FEATURE IN THE SOCIAL WHIRL IHEY CAME, they saw, they set out to conquer Duke — the hoards of eager-eyed freshmen who passed unknowingly in front of the statue of Washington Duke. The place really became alive Freshman Week. One new co-ed thought Aycock was an annex to East Duke, but otherwise the week was carried out in its traditional confusion, and nobody went home after the placement tests. Freshmen soon boarded Skip ' s trolley for a tour of West (including the campus). In no time at all the ROTCs had ex- plained the tradition of the Sower, as Frosh went broke. Pegram freshmen walked off with first prize on Stunt night. Everybody went barefoot in the downpour which flooded the campus all week. Upperclassmen came in droves the next week — sophs immediately laid plans to avoid the soph slump, while jaunty juniors took the situation in with all calm — Seniors returned for the last fling. Southgate opened its doors to co-eds for the first time, as Engineers planned to get drunk some night and wander back to their old rooms in the Shack. Duke welcomed back former Duke boys, returned veterans and the new boys, and West Campus grew by leaps and bounds — F.A.C. and Social Standards solved the how to meet the Dukes and Duchesses problem, through several open-houses and dances. Homecoming, or the Navy-game week-end, clearly showed that the old-time Duke spirit was rapidly returning. The boys on West decorated their dorms as enthusiastically as the co-eds, and school spirit reached a higher pitch than it has in a long time — Dukesters capped the Navy goat, breaking the Annapolis tradition. The week-end was climaxed with the Engineer ' s Ball, as co-eds drooled over some fifty Annapolis Midshipmen who attended the dance. The first peacetime ROTC Ball followed up the Engineer ' s Ball, attracting a bigger than usual crowd. Y sponsored Devil ' s Den, a la Ark, opened its doors once more to students, as tradi- tional Sunday evening-Sings got underway. Soph- mores laid the law down on the traditional Goon Day. Freshmen performed on Union Quadrangle, tziking time out now and then to engage in man- hunts. The dreaded Rat Court climaxed the day with all the horror and atrocity that the Frosh had anticipated. Graduation in October saw some forty-five V-12 ' s and NROTC ' s receive degrees and commissions — the boot Ensigns held a private dance as a farewell gesture. An influx of new V-12 ' s and NROTCs put a gleam in the eyes of the co-eds — F.A.C. and Socials Standards went all out again with more open-houses and twilight dances — it didn ' t take long. Duke was honored to have as a speaker, Mrs. 212 Ruth Draper, famous impersonator, who kept the audience in stitches with her monologue, Rigo- letto. Alicia Marcova and Anton Dahon, fa- mous ballet dancers entertained an enthusiastic crowd on Duke ' s stage — The Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra ' s appearance at Duke was another fea- ture of the season — Duke Players brought Janie and Snafu, two popular Broadway hit plays to Page. W.S.G.A. went liberal on co-eds — that extra half hour on Saturday nights left little to be desired. Approved list was banished to the glee of the co-eds. and the feminine touch was at Red ' s and the coffee pot. Half of Duke went en masse to New York to wit- ness Army tactics against the Blue Devils — and to engage in other diversions. A Duke Alumni re- union was held in the Ambassador Hotel after the game, with throngs of old and new Dukesters re- calling their days at Dearauldook. The migra- tion continued the following week, when many naore took off for the Georgia-Tech game. The Carolina week-end was one of the biggest of the year, as the Blue Devils and Tarheels clashed to play off age-old rivalry. Effervescent Troy- Boy took over Stockslagger ' s place as head cheer leader. The Social Standards ' Co-ed Ball was prelude to the week-end — Co-eds showed their enthusiasm as they bought out tickets wee ks in advance — optimistic freshmen were turned away — Peggy Otto, the first choice of Conover, was presented as 1 945- ' 46 Beauty Queen — stags, as in the days of old, flooded the gym to the delight of the girls. Most everybody celebrated a quiet Thanksgiving on campus — half the day was spent standing in line for the Union ' s version of Thanksgiving dinner — they disguised the place remarkably well. Later that night. West Campus, as a preview to the pep rally, serenaded East, and led each house in yells. Friday night saw the most spirited pep rally Duke has had in several years — Dukes and Duchesses snake-danced from the statue of Washington Duke, through down-town Durham, and back to West Campus, where BOS sponsored rally — Duke- Caro- lina rivalries caused great friction between the two schools, as cars loaded with boys from both schools dashed between Durham and Chapel Hill — Duke freshmen guarded sheet-draped Washington Duke from N.C. rowdies, while Dukes messed up the Hill aplenty — grand finale to the week-end was the Tobacco Ball, a former Duke tradition set aside during the war. Then came the Cabin Parties — Big-eyed Frosh awaited their first ones, and then screamed, But Where ' s the Cabin? as they were pulled into the woods. It was not until then that they learned never to accept a blind date to a Cabin party. German majors and curious co-eds carried on conversations with the German prisoners of war, while the latter trimmed the ivy on the dormi- sciles — that is, until the administration banned all fraternization. What will be the fate of Roscoe, the East Campus mascot, which may always be seen proning in front of the Science Building? 213 Then came the scare of November twenty- eighth, when word spread that the Navy was leaving that week, etc. A rumor followed up that one panicky co-ed jumped out of a third floor window in Jarvis House. Epworth became equal with the other buildings, as it received the supreme decoration, a purity light — it was also condemned as a fire trap — could they have confused Epworth with Aycock? Aubrey ' s Drink Stand played a stategic part in the life of Duke University — the Aubrey ' s jeep visited both campuses nightly — it was last seen bouncing along on its merry way up the auditorimn steps in search of Bassett House. Bathing-capped Nereidian pledges dog-paddled around the circle in front of the Women ' s Union, slightly impeded by the fish-strings around their necks — P.T. on West grew more ferocious, as La- crosse rackets and heads collided — men over twen- ty-one sat back and laughed at theu: juniors. COGS sponsored Saturday evening trips to Camp Butner and solved dateless Saturday night problems — Butner boys liked it, too. As Winter set in, dates migrated from East Duke lawn to the warmth of the Ark, Pan-Hel. House, or dormitories — the summer house reconciled itself to several months of solitude — the sower shivered in the winter wind — the Sarah P. Duke Memorial Gardens setded down for a lonely winter. One morning East Campus was rudely awakened by a hack, followed by several more hacks, and within several days half the campus was laid up with the plague, more commonly known as Flu. The infirmary was overflowed, and shut its doors to the hoards of afflicted co-eds — West Campus didn ' t escape the malady. How could it? Every dorm employed its Florence Nightingales to care for the sick. Those who were able to crawl around were very disapp ointed that social activities were can- celled. Plans for several big dances, such as the W.S.G.A. Christmas Ball, Sigma Chi Sweetheart Dance, and pledge dances were left suspended in mid-air — social life became nil. However, thoughts of the ensuing Christmas vacation hasted sick-bay residents from their death- beds, and out once more into the hub-bub of campus life. The appearance of snow one cold December day drew the deep southerners from their classrooms and to the cold outside. Dorms were decorated gaily to fulfill the proper spirit, and Christmas reigned supreme. Handel ' s Messiah, by the Duke choir, drew huge crowds — many were left standing outside. The Christmas Pageant proved as beautiful a service as in past years. With their bags packed weeks in advance, stu- dents tried valiantiy to conquer remaining quizzes, and to keep at the grind — the faculty, true to form, assigned term papers and last-minute reports due before the holidays. Somehow the days did pass by, and over a period of several days the Union Station found its waiting room thronged with home-seeking aspirants. Immediately upon return, the co-eds started anew, and in earnest, their quest for knowledge, with exams just around the corner. The library turned out to be a most popular retreat — girls buried themselves alive (they wondered) in the depths of the basement — freshmen were horrified and had nightmares in anticipation of the Zoology exam. Then, one morning, the co-eds laid seige to the classrooms, and plunged head-first into their respective exams — the boys on West sat back and laughed, taking it all in from the grandstand. However, Their time was near at hand. East campus slowed down to sixty after exams, and took the back seat, while West chewed its nails and knuckled down to last-minute book larnin ' , before their approaching finals. So we left our seclusion after graduation in January — freshmen on East took advantage of dating privileges during exams. East took over Sawyer and Moore ' s pop- ular new we have everything establishment, to 214 bolster up their fortitude with frosted maheds and egg nogs (ice cream). Hopefuls were-seen to be crawling around on all fours seeking in vain the groundhog on February second — would spring ever come, they wondered? Engineer ' s Ball was last fling before exams — the evening was sparked with the crowning of the i945- ' 46 Slide-Rule Queen, Margie Smith. The Naval ROTC Ball provided a happy ending to exams, as students danced to the tunes of Jack Fieldson and his band — the evening was high- lighted when BufTa Garrett, adding another honor to her list, was crowned Navy Queen. Biggest event on the Social Calendar was the Women ' s Pan-Hel.-sponsored Johnny Long week- end — Johnny returned to his old stamping grounds after several years ' absence. With the financial assistance of the Women ' s Athletic Association, and Duke Players, Pan-Hellenic worked and planned weeks in advance, hoping for a gala week-end. Johnny and his orchestra came through. Co-eds went broke gladly, in a mad scramble to get tickets for the two big dances. On the morning tickets went on sale, many girls could be found playing bridge for hours in the Union lobby, waiting for the ticket sales to begin — freshmen girls were in- cluded in this deal. Johnny hit Duke just in time to play for the eighteenth birthday party of the Quadrangle pictures. And speaking of music, Duke was very fortunate in having many famous figures in the musical world appear on its stage the second semester. The University was honored to have Luboshutz and Nemenoff , duo-pianists, here for an evening — the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra, under the di- rection of Eugene Ormandy, packed Page Audi- torium. Under the auspices of the Duke Concert Series, Blanch Theborn, well-known Metropolitan Mezzo Soprano, was brought to Page Auditorium. The Concert series also sponsored the Cleveland Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of Leins- dorf. Everything concerning Duke and Chapel Hill seemed to be a controversy this past year. How- ever, despite the fact that the Duke co-eds had to dress at the Carolina Inn and return to Durham a la bus after the dance, all Dukesters lucky enough to wangle bids had a marvelous time at the Charlie Spivak dance. Besides, who would prefer to come home by car after a dance? (Line forms at the right!) After the unforgettable spaghetti and liver dish in the Women ' s Union, followed by a sign con- cocted by bitter freshmen, Are we supposed to eat this, or have we already? a Union investigation committee got to work on the problem and cleared up, or rather cleared out, some of the undesirable existing conditions. Co-eds would only let them go so far. After all, with griping about the food in the Union such a well-established tradition, the campus would be lost if it didn ' t have anything to kick about. Pin-ups became the thing during the cold winter nights. After Christmas vacation, many pins sparkled on campus — must have been absence made the hearts grow fonder. Crooners exercised their vocals as fraternities tuned up. Despite the cold wintry winds. Co-eds migrated to West many times, to watch the Blue Devils lash most of their opponents in basketball — ah, yes, basketball games are one more method wimmen used to get over to West. BOS and Sandals collab- orated and combined their efforts to sponsor a huge pep rally as a prelude to the Duke-Carolina game — pep rallies are the best way to meet people! A surprise snowstorm revived childhood instincts in Dukesters. Several co-eds dragged out their sleds, and solicited the assistance of ROTC passers- by. Everyone had a marvelous time, but the suhthernuhs (suh!) had more fun than anybody. January and February were months of several big drives at Duke. Students dug down into 215 the depths of their closets and pulled out as many old clothes as they could find in order to supply the needy people in war-torn countries all over the world. Then there was the infantile paralysis drive. This time the students dug deeply into their pockets to give whatever they felt they could afford, for the further assistance of infantile paraly- sis victims. The World Student Service Fund was perhaps the largest of the various drives, as it affected the students directly. Bowling fans welcomed the opening of the bowl- ing alleys in the Ark. The boys tried valiantly to raise their dates ' scores to at least a hundred ! Each dorm brushed up its basketball rules in preparation for the inter-house contests — as part of the rigorous training everybody gave up drinking (would that they could!). After long hours of in- tensive practice the gals donned their sharpest shorts and shirts (for the benefit of onlookers) and met in fierce combat, Pegram emerging the cham- pions. Student Forum, in presenting its series of noted personalities, brought Rockwell Kent, world famous artist, lecturer, author, and philosopher, to the Women ' s College Auditorium — Mr. Kent held the undivided attention of the hundreds who came to hear him speak on Art for Everyone. Student Forum came through again when it brought jour- nalist Nora Wain, popular, well-known traveler, lecturer to speak to the University and community. Tears and fond farewells were in order again when many civilians and ROTCs received their degrees, commissions, or both, in March. Came Spring, and every man ' s fancy lightly turned to thoughts of East campus. The first -warm spring ' s sun turned the girls from sweaters and skirts to bathing suits, and they treked merrily over to the gym to worship the sun, and find a fourth for bridge. The brothers bothered the girls as us- ual, as they insisted that that was the only way to get to the Engineering buildings. East Duke lawn once more assumed supremacy on the warm spring nights, as behind East Duke became the pass-word — students are still plotting against the purity light which beams on the path and benches — several pieces of buckshot may be found buried in the lamp, if one wants to take the time. The sower received more than a generous income — the government was down in April to col- lect his taxes. The summer house became a pop- ular resort place once more, and the students wan- dered around in the gardens, griping because the closing hour hadn ' t been changed. After being frozen in the Cabins all winter, every- body welcomed the weekly Cabin Parties on the warm spring days. Cabin party crowds took cool, refreshing dips in the lakes at Perry ' s and Crab- tree, and wished they had Cabin Parties every day. The Co-eds hit it again at the Co-ed Ball which was highlighted by the crowning of Peg Otto as May Queen. Social Standards really outdid them- selves in making the spring formal even better than the fall one — and they succeeded. The Duke Players ' production of Blithe Spirit, ' . ' popular Broadway comedy hit, brought to the fore all Duke thespians. Beautiful women, shapely chorus girls, was the theme of the Hoof ' n ' Horn ' s annual talent production, Calcutta. Bathing beauty members of the Nereidean Club pooled all their efforts in presenting their yearly dazzling Nereidian Club Pageant in the Women ' s Gym. Men ' s Pan-Hellenic Council combined the efforts of all the individual fraternities in putting on the Pan-Hel. Ball of West Campus, as a thank you gesture to Women ' s Pan-Hel. ' s Johnny Long dance earlier in the year. Easter week was carried out in traditional quiet and reverence. The Duke Chapel Choir sang the first part of The Redemption the Sunday before Easter, and Easter Sunday it sang the second half, a truly beautiful representation of Easter. Thus ended the first postwar year here at Duke. It ended with the promises of bigger and better years yet to come.

Sophomores are in their glory for a day— commanding and humiliating blue-jeaned and pig-tailed freshmen during the day and finishing them off with a rat court at night. Proposals, as shown here, are numerous and males who venture to East suffer a risk, but they like it. Even freshmen say it ' s un. A FRESHMAN ' S NIGHTMARE In the traditional manner during Freshman Week newly-arrived Frosh boldly display their talents in skits on Stunt Night.

Goons Sara Ann Stewart and Lillian George strike up intimate conversation with Wash-Duke. According to tradition, not many have this privilege. These goons suffer the punishment of all who forget to wear their bows. After Goon Day the freshmen bows are discarded, burned, or preserved. Registration is a necessary evil, but well worth the effort. Boys wait their turn in front of Page Auditorium to sign for courses, watch the bulletin board for closed courses, and once in class, the real work begins. Getting out of eight-thirties and eleven-thirties is the biggest task, and few accomplish it completely. - WEST CAMPUS REGISTERS ■ First day for incoming Navy men means falling into line and receiving first orders — though certainly not the last. Even the humble freshmen have to have a roo( over their heads, and they line up here waiting to get their room number and key, hoping for the best.

The dance was remin iscent of the prewar balls which were formerly staged here, and was one of the first of the many post- war social functions that were to come. Mr. Harry Conover, head of the famed Conover Modeling Agency, chose Miss Peggy Otto as Beauty Queen of the university and the highlight of the ball was Peggy ' s crowning and the Social Standard ' s figure which accompanied it. Mr. Conover also chose nine other girls to complete the Beauty Court. These were not presented at the ball, however, but as a special Chanticleer feature were kept secret until the book was published. Flo and Glenn shift into a rhumba position to give us a big smile. They ade- quately express our sentiments — a wonderful dance and a good time had by all.

It is an annual custom for each of the so- rorities to enter a pledge in the Sweetheart Contest judged on a basis of beauty, personality, and charm. Lib, this year ' s winner, is a Tri-Delt pledge. A CAMPUS TRADITION . . . PAY No Duke yearbook would be complete without a picture of the Reaper, the familiar statue which embodies one of the oldest and most respected tradi- tions on the campus. Legend says that if a boy puts two pennies in the hand, and they stay until the couple returns, he gets a kiss— and it never fails. AND THEN COLLECT For those who doubt, here is proof of the Reaper ' s power. For only two cents we say goodnight on Brown ' s doorstep, and it ' s well worth the price. Cabin parties offer many varied d iversions — all the way from romantic walks in the moonlight to a baseball game — this includes a game of bridge, too. Eat- ing, the most popular sport, and hamburgers or hot dogs are the main menu. Cabin parties are Duke ' s most renowned and popular form of entertainment. Cabin parties are the standing entertainment for Saturday afternoons at Duke. Everybody goes, and everybody has a good time. Some play baseball, others dance to the music of a f)ortable radio, and some make a rush for the brush. As the evening draws on, all gather to sing fraternity songs, that is, most all — . In spite of contemptible remarks from Northern students snow fell in sunny Durham when the rain let up teuipurarily. Most amazing of all — it stuck! m-:.: -: ' .: v tP ' --.-wrt , ▼ A winter scene in back of the Campus (West, naturally) shows realistic snow women modeled by the artistic hand of some skilled sculptor as yet unidentified. THERE ' S NOTHING LIKE THE SUNNY SOUTH • -S5 --MIS . Come snow, sicct, or rain, Buck Duke remains the impassive guardian of the campus. Here he surveys the grounds, more beautiful than ever by a blanket of white, while in front of him a snowman made by a student possessing more energy than talent, rules in short-lived glory before the rains come. Duke University looks impressive in its mantle of snow. The serene wliite beauty covered the lawns of the campus and lent to all the buildings a new dignity. Students launched frequent snow fights after the big storm which came unexpectedly to divert their thoughts from studies and exams to the great out-of-doors. .v- .A. ;? ANGELS OF MERCY Student nurses at the Duke Hospital are taught all the intricate operations of hospital work, and must be accomplished in every task, including narcotics. The maze of a cluttered utility room holds no terrors for this competent student nurse who is shown deftly pulling instruments out of a sterilizer. The Chanticleer camera invades room 104 in Duke Hospital as Nurs- Interns get together to compare notes with subjects ranging from ing Art Supervisor instructs student nurses in cleaning of surgical carriages. some delicate gastronomic operation to that cute blonde on Cushing. THERE ' S SO MUCH TO DO When back on duty, the student nurse carries the large responsibility of preparing and caring for the daily needs of patients on hospital wards. Contrary to opmion, the student nurses do have time to relax and enjoy a good meal. Hospital food is delicious— just ask East Campus co-eds. THEY STRIVE FOR PERFECTION Aware that accuracy is vital in her Une of work, this student nurse measures food with particular care to get the correct amount necessary for the patient. I ' heory is a necessary part of a nurse ' s training. In class they get a thorough education which will be put into practice in the wards. HREE LINES A DAY Coffee — what would we do without it — the nurses enjoy the chatter, relax- ation and stamina that it lends. And they know how to make good coffee. One of the tasks awaited by most student nurses is in the delivery room. Some await with interest, others with fear. But nursing is not all work and no play. They, too, take off from their duties for a gay night of dating, going to movies, or relaxing in some favorite pastime. THREE LINES A DAY The Union line sharpens any man ' s appetite, although it doesn ' t seem to be necessary, as faces fall when Henrietta forgets the second piece of meat. Until we return to good old family style, the line must be endured and it is being done cheerfully. If the line is too long— there ' s always the Dope Shop. KEEP HUNGER AWAY East Campus eats, too. This line can ' t be for breakfast, and dinner usually isn ' t as crowded — so it must be lunch. At twelve-twenty, classes are out and a mad dash to the Union begins. The Union is the place to find people, a place to chat and relax, and now there is smoking in the outer lobby. The Concert Series brought in November the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo in a well-attended program. Dancers shown are dressed for Ballet of Sylphides, made famous by the artist, Nijinsky. In the same month the Music Study Club sponsored the recital of Louise Dabbs, pianist, and Nancy McMurtrie, singer. Student Forum was again successful in bringing accomplished speakers and artists. In spite of the flu epidemic, we were fortimate in hear- ing many famous personalities on the lecture series. Lecturers spoke on informative and current topics to Duke students and townspeople. THE STUDENT FORUM PRESENTS Student Forum also brought Rockwell Kent, well-known artist. He predicted future trends in art and showed slides of his paintings and wood carvings. DUKE POSTWAR SOCIAL FEATURE Til gets a close view as Johnny and the boys swing out in their best style. Nicki, Ann, and Til again show hearty approval. Johnny ' s visit set a precedent for future big name bands at Duke — the Men ' s Pan-Hel. kept the ball rolling — with Shep Fields, who played two months later. BIG DANCES AND NAME BANDS Ruth Romaine, president of Women ' s Pan-Hellenic Council, gaily sings for Johnny Long, Sarah Clarkson, Jim Proctor and Grace Council. Below, Mary Louise, Mary Lib and Kay join the Sigma Chi throng to swing and sway with Johnny Long. Glenn, Doc and Bob approve — but definitely. HOOF ' N ' HORN Under the direction of Sue Bowmall and Judd Mathison the Hoof ' n ' Horn Club was permanently organized. The success of Calcutta set a precedent for all of the future productions. The musical, written by Sue and Judd, with scores by Bill Syderaan, attributed its success to able direction and a talented cast. Behind the scene of any dramatic production of Duke Players is a blue-jeaned, plaid-shirted set crew. Constantly hard at work, they dig up needed prop- erties, handle the lighting of the plays, apply the grease paint skillfully, and make all preparations for the stage. Finished product is a comedy hit, Snafu, PHOTOGRAPHERS TAKE A HOLIDAY Our alert photographer, Charlie Carver and an attractive photography staff member, Mary Ellen McCarthy, had a difficult time avoiding the flash bulbs on their busman ' s holiday. At the Women ' s Pan-Hellenic dance, Mary Ellen holds the traditional flowers given to members of the Council. AND BEAT OUT THE LONG TEMPO This was really night off for our camera experts. True Cochran and Gordon Nazor prove that they can do more at a dance than just take pictures. PAN-HEL. BROUGHT JOHNNY LONG Johnny Long and his charming (just ask us — huh, boys?) vocalist, Francey Lane, gave us two days of out of this world music. After waiting for five years, we couldn ' t have had better entertainment. The Woman ' s Pan-Hel. Council was responsible, and Romaine and her gals did a bang-up job. THE MAY QUEEN Miss Peggy Otto reigned as the nineteen hundred and forty-six May Queen. As is the custom, the May Queen was a member of the senior class and chosen by a popular vote. Peggy was crowned at the Spring Co-ed Ball, sponsored by Social Standards. Her May Court is revealed on May Day. BOOK VI PAN-HELLENIC PAN-HELLENIC NE MORE YEAR OF , RUSHING, pledging and initiation is over, zind satis- fied fraternities Jind sorori- ties gaze fondly at their pledges, assured that they have the best pledge class that ever entered Duke. The meaning of the fra- ternity ideal has been impressed upon each and every one of them, and as the year progressed they realized the true worth of this ideal. However, it is now up to them to prove their worth to the Uni- versity. They will be able to do this not by taking the fraternity system as a whole, but by taking each person individually that belongs to this system and evaluating it in this manner. Due to the absence of sorority houses and fra- ternity sections, the importance of the fraternal ideal has been somewhat neglected in the past years. This year, however, it has once again reached its rightful place in campus activities, and there is all evidence that it shall continue to do so from this year on. The purpose of the fraternity is strongly binded within the purpose of the university. There is more in the purpose of the university than scho- lastic achievement; there are also the lasting friend- ships that are formed in the four years of college life. These friendships are strengthened by the fraternity. Together with this bond of compan- ionship the students are also made to feel that they are an active part of the school. It is with this purpose in mind that fraternities and sororities have striven to uphold this ideal during the recent period of war ... a period in which they found it very difficult to maintain their normal standaiti of participation in university activities. 267 PAN-HELLENIC WORKING TOGETHER AND SHARING SUCCESS WITH COMRADES FORM STRONG AND LASTING FRIENDSHIPS MEN ' S PAN-HEL. ' ITH THE DRASTIC need for a complete revision of the rushing sys- tem, a thorough but just method of disciplining its members, and a true course set for the re-occupation of the much sought after sections, the Men ' s Pan-Hellenic Council got speedily underway with the able Pete Peters at the helm. The first action taken was by Bob Kirk ' s rushing committee — the revision of the old, outmoded rush- ing rules, and to set down new rules to be effective during the transition from wartime to the better peacetime way of Duke. The inauguration of a judicial system to try violaters of the Council ' s constitution was brought about with the installation of a prosecuting attorney and a judicial board. Bill Farren represented the Council by assembling and submitting the pertinent evidence, conducting the hearings, and by propos- ing a sentence to be weighed by the board. Behind closed doors, Moose Anderson, George Hersman, and Bill Higgenbothom met, with con- siderable deliberation, to set the final sentence; which was, in turn, relayed to the Council as a body, for approval. Those who deviated from the straight and ncirrow felt the festering sting of a Council that meant business; yet they realized that a governing body is only as effective as is the indi- vidual member, and therefore, they conform to its rulings to the last letter. Many a temperate session was spent discussing the section problem; but as a result of the ex- tensive cooperation shown as the Council bucked a seemingly immovable object, a few sections were reinstated. As of the past, the Council once again underwrote the Hoof ' n ' Horn ' s production of Calcutta ; and the annual Pan-Hellenic Banquet, under the supervision of Doc Walker, was one of the celebrated highlights of the social calendar. It has been the hope of the Council to cement relations between the administration and the stu- dent body and to further the ideals of the Greek- letter world, and with these in view, a step in the right direction has been taken. WOMEN ' S PAN-HEL. |HE PAN-HELLENIC COUNCIL worked to correct its rushing system through committee work, conferences with the administration, and coordinate work between the sororities. This work was done with the view in mind of lessening some of the faults in the national sorority rush program. 268 The high-spot of this year for both the cam- puses and the Pan-Hellenic Council was the Valen- tine Dance series. The Council brought Johnny Long and his band back to Duke for the first big- name band series in four years. It was a finan- cial as well as social success. The oflficers for the Women ' s Pan-Hellenic Coun- cil for the year 1945-46 were: Ruth Romaine, Pres- ident; Pat Ward, Vice President; Becky Toms, Sec- retary; Dot Thigpen and Helen Mickelson, Treas- urer. In order to prove its worth to the campus, the 1945-46 Women ' s Pan-Hellenic Council has en- deavored to bring about more campus-wide ac- tivities, coordination between the individual chap- ters, and closer cooperation between sorority girls and independents. The annual open-houses for freshmen women were held in October with the aim of making them more informal than in previous years. A few changes were made in formal Rush Week in order to facilitate entertaining the largest freshman class in the history of Duke University ' s Woman ' s College. A one hundred dollar scholarship Avas presented to the Junior woman having the highest scholastic standing in her class by this year ' s Council. In addition to this presentation, one hundred dollars was given to the Alice Mary Baldwin Scholarship which was originated by the Class of 1 940. In addition to these major activities, the Pan- Hellenic Council has carried on its regular activi- ties, such as the annual Inter-Sorority Sing Con- test, Sorority picture albums, pledge dances, and maintenance of the Pan-Hellenic House. This year ' s Council has added a great deal to- wards making itself one of the more active, strong, and forseeing service organizations on the campus. ALPHA CHI OMEGA It ' s a far cry from the reign of ankle length skirts and high collars which typified the dress of the women who gathered together in 1885 to found Alpha Chi Omega, to the reign of short skirts and long sweaters which denote the modern Alpha Chi ' s. Like the rest of the campus, they have kept astride of all campus activities from the social side to Phi Beta Kappa. Efficiently led by their president, Lois DeLong, vice presidents, Rachel Roberts and Shirley Dick, recording secretary, Ann Ransom, corresponding secretary, Elizabeth Ambrose and treasurer, Marie Foote, the Alpha Chi Omegas have entered whole- heartedly into the various clubs and organizations on East Campus. Among the more outstanding members in the extra-curricular field is Marie Foote, who has the distinction of being the only girl on East to recieve the Order of Saint Pat, Delta Epsilon Sigma, AIEE — all engineering hon- ors. Marie, beside being elected to the engineering fraternities, was elected this year to Phi Beta Kappa and Phi Kappa Delta. From the slide rule to literary geniuses, Rachel Roberts was selected for Chi Delta Phi. Beside this honor, she was presi- dent of the International Relations Club. Winn Kern saw to it that girls wore heels and hose on Sundays as her duty on Social Standards. She also was vice president of the Sophomore Y Commission, and was selected for Bench and Bar. Amy Franklin served as president of Tau Psi Omega and Shirley Dick worked on the COGS Hub Com- mittee. These are just a few of the many acitvities and organizations that the Alpha Chi ' s have proved themselves worthy of belonging to. In order that the whole sorority could get to- gether for something beside business meeting, many teas and parties were held throughout the year. It started out with a Founder ' s Day Tea on Octo- ber 14, then went on with a dinner in the Washing- ton Duke Tavern after pledging on October 28. 269 On November lo an Open House and Supper after the Duke-Wake Forest game was held in the Mor- decai House, and another Open House was held at Thanksgiving time on November 22. On Decem- ber 5 their annual pledge dance was held, and a pledge tea was held on the sixteenth of that month in the East Campus Union Ballroom. The pledges were presented at intermission and given old-fash- ioned bouquets. The theme was a Winter Won- derland and decorations were in silver and blue. Coffees were held Thursday evenings from about six-thirty to seven-thirty, and a skit or some enter- tainment was provided. Bridge was often an eve- ning play and a general get-together was always welcome. Three days before Christmas vacation the Christ- mas party took place in the sorority room. Dur- ing the second semester the pledges saw the re- ward of all their hard efforts at the initiation ban- quet. It was held February 26 at the Hope Valley Country Club. The theme was a Robin Hood theme, and the program included songs by Nancy MacMartine and Lila Magruder. President Lois DeLong gave a welcome speech and Bobbie Rob- erts also gave one. Jane Ellen Becker was toast mistress. The alumnae, Mrs. Hersdel Caldwell, Evelyn Cline, and Mildred Schulden were guests. Rushing brought eighteen pledges: Adrianne Barthen, Dick Blackwell, Florence Craig, Con- nie Costen, Catherine Crowell, Sarah Dale, Jane Leitch, Norma Little, Connie Mackey, Phyl Mertz, Lorraine Moore, Rita Shoaf, Peggy Shonk, Mari- lyn Skinner, Katherine Steele, Mildred Taylor, and Virginia Wise. Later in the spring a picnic and farewell pzu-ty for the seniors rounded out the schedule on the Alpha Chi Omega social calendar. ALPHA DELTA PI For the past year the ADPis have been held in check by Jane Sherrill, president. The vice presi- dency was handed to Alice Smither, and the secre- tarial work was handled by Dot Thigpen and Henny Heykoop. They entrusted their money to Jeanne Lentz. These worthy officers were backed up by a very illustrious group of actives and pledges who continually made themselves known on the czunpus by entering into all the social and extra- curricular activities. Members of W.S.G.A. included Tommye Stan- ton, vice president; and Lois Ritch, treasurer. Both girls were elected to White Duchy. Mem- bers of Social Standards included Jane Sherrill and Buffa Garrett. Jane was also a cheer leader, and Buffa was vice president of the Sophomore Class. Along with Gwin Barnwell, they also were among the twenty girls selected for the Beauty Section. Gwin, after her graduation in the fall, recieved the outstanding honor of being elected the National Cotton Queen. The freshmen advisers were well-represented by ADPis; they were Jeanne Lentz, Dot Thigpen, Alice Smithers, Bev Neely, and Betty Newbold. Dot was also treasurer of the Pan-Hellenic Associ- ation, and Bev was Chairman of the Student Co- ordinate Board, and a Junior Marshal. Alice, or Smitty, was also on the Coordinate Board, and President of the Sociology Club. Betty Gwaltney and Jean Tommasi were se- lected to Ivy, with Jean acting as president of the organization. She was also elected to Sandals. The treasurer of the Freshman Class was Shirley Field. The social activities of the sorority began with the pledge banquet in the fall, followed by the pledge dance later in the year. The Duke ADPis got together frequently with the Carolina ADPis, once when they had an Open House in the fall given by the Chapel Hill Chapter for the Chapter here, and another time when they had a get-to- gether with the ADPis from Chapel Hill and Queens. They finished the year off with a house party in the spring for just the chapter members here. The Alpha Delta Pi rush parties were extremely successful this year, as evidenced by the outstand- ing pledges acquired. The first party was focused around a juke box. The room was decorated with cardboard records hung from the wall, a juke box, and a drawing of a jitter-bugging couple was painted on a large mirror. The songs and refresh- ments carried out the theme of the party, and favors were distributed among the rushees. The second party was a Plantation Party. Two small col- ored boys greeted guests at the door. The idea was elaborated upon with the singing of plantation 270 songs and with favors carrying out the theme. The third and last party was the Alpha Delta Pi tradi- tional Black and White Reception. There was a wishing well where each guest made the wish nearest and dearest to her heart. The results — Alpha Delta Pi boasted eighteen new pledges. They were: Isobel Autry, Nell Bailey, Elizabeth Barrett, Shirley Field, Harriett Griffin, Gene Har- ris, Alda Heycoop, Ellen Ross Izlar, Rose Ann Jor- dan, Betsy Nicholson, Mary Louise Powe, Nancy Rousseau, Jean Savage, Julia Toms, Allison Wag- goner, Prudence Wise, Ruth Womble, Rose Marie Wilson, and Elizabeth Murray. ALPHA EPSILON PHI The members of Alpha Epsilon Phi kept quite busy this year. One of their outstanding members was Nancy Sour, Woman ' s Student Government member who was president of Bassett House. Nancy was also Secretary of the House Presidents Board, member of the YWCA Cabinet, the W.A.A. Board, and Nereidian Club. Another member of Nereidian was Shirley Finklestein. Shirley was also president of the Hillel Organization. Bluma Kafka, president of Alpha Epsilon Phi, also had the honor of being president of the Orchestra, vice president of the Music Study Club, and a member of Pi Mu Epsilon. Other members of Pi Mu Epsilon were June Vigodsky, Joyce Cohen, Evelyn Schmidt, and Jeanne Shimmel. Evelyn, June, and Joyce were also members of Ivy. June and Jeanne Shimmel brought honor to their ranks by winning scholarships this year. Harriet Green and Estelle Smith were both members of the Pan-Hellenic Council. Betty Lipsitz was chairman of the Dur- ham Day Nursery, Barbara Sachs was a repre- sentative of Mademoiselle Magazine and is editor of the Duke Players Playbill. Helene Cahn wzis the musical member of the sorority, for she belonged to the Choir, Glee Club, and Music Study Club. Norma Lipman did an outstanding job as Chair- man of the Goon Day Committee. Her work recieved honorable mention from the Student Government. Norma was also a member of the Social Standards Committee and Duke Players. The social activities began with an Open House for the boys from Butner, Duke, U. N. C, and State. Then they had a dinner in the Chapter room following pledging. On Thanksgiving they had another Open House, this time for the parents of all AEPhis. Later in the year a Pledge-Active Breakfast was held, and also a Faculty-Student Cof- fee with Dr. Cole as the guest speaker. Through- out the year they served at brunches at the USO on Sundays, and they also spent much time in reading to children over in the hospital. Their main project of the year, and one that they all can well be proud of, was the support of a refugee child. On February 17, the Initiation Banquet was held, honoring new initiates. The sorority paper was read, seniors made speeches, and Mrs. Boones, the adviser, sang. The Sorority Formal was on St. Patrick ' s Day and pledges and new initiates were presented in a leadout, walking through a four leaf clover. The next day, they had a cabin party at Perry ' s, with much football, baseball, and rowing. A stag picnic was given at the Duke Park Bridge, on April 21, and sunning was the major occupa- tion. Once a month dinner was served in the sorority room. The menu ranged from ham- burgers to cold cuts, but was different each time. Rushing caught them in the whirl and their parties were successful as susal. The first party was a Cover Girl party, featuring a most stylish style show. Next came the Gipsy Tea Room. The tables sported red checkered table cloths and each rushee had her fortune told. The last party took a more serious vein and was the Dream Party. The actives wore white formals and a skit carried out the theme. The results were eight wonderful pledges. They were, Sheela Lewis, Nancy Alex- ander, Ida Abrams, Estelle Greenwald, Enta Cove, Rosalyn Schwartz, Shirley Kemper, and Estelle Rose. In the spring, plans were being made for the National Convention, which was to be held in New Orleans. Two girls were to represent the chapter. Thus did the Alpha Epsilon Phi members busy themselves this past year. ALPHA PHI The silver and bordeaux colors of the Alpha Phis waved proudly on nineteen pledges and twenty-five members this past year. The officers were Judy Smith, president; Joan Gaudynski, vice 271 president; Jane Meriwether, recording secretary; Peggy Jones, corresponding secretary; and Lynn Messenkopf, treasurer. The president took time out to devote herself to the stage. She was elected secretary of Du ke Players. Pat Ward, another member of the Class of ' 46, served as vice president of the Pan-Hellenic Council, and as president of Sigma Delta Pi. Jane Meriwether, another senior, was selected for the Student Forum. Betty Smith, was the Chairman of all Freshmen Advisers this past year. Aetna Womble, the woman engineer, was in the Engi- neer ' s Club and AIEE for three years. Among the juniors there were: Adah Torbett, a Freshman Adviser; Lynn Messenkopf, who was on Social Standards; and Susie Meighen, that Florida cracker who was voted the Pi Kappa Alpha Dream Girl. The outstanding sophomore was Marion Pecot, who combined grades with activities to be elected to both Ivy and Sandals. Just as outstanding were their social functions. On October 10 they held their annual Founders Day Dinner. Then on December 1 1 the Pledge Banquet took place out at Hope Valley Country Club, and six days later the Pledge Christmas Party was given for the actives in the chapter room. Starting the second semester they had Open Houses in the room every other Saturday. Then on Feb- ruary 16, the long-awaited Initiation took place, followed three days later by the Initiation Banquet out at Hope Valley. On March 9 a dance honor- ing the new members took place in the East Cam- pus Ballroom. The Faculty Tea was held March 31, and officers of the other sororities were invited. On April 8, the new officers were installed, followed by a party for old and new oflficers. The nineteen Alpha Phi pledges were: Betty Beach, Louise Bleckley, June Glenn, Nancy Hunt- ington, Joan Harding, Ruth Holcombe, Mary Hammil, Fay Finley, Louise Jones, Jean Lafko, Helen Laughlin, Katherine McGrael, Eleanor Mil- ler, Janet Nixon, Ella Anne Proctor, Constance Shaw, Ann Swartzwelter, Billie Ruth Spear, and Mary Lundeberg. But some of the girls were planning to attend the long awaited for convention in Canada, which was to be held at the beautiful and historic Cha- teau Frontenac in Quebec. This was to take place in the latter part of June, and is the Thirty-sixth General Convention of Alpha Phi. The rushing period was opened with a Russian Party. The chapter room was completely Russian — down to the checked table cloths, candles in the bottles, and the bar. Only vodka was missing. The rushess received Russian dolls which were made of disguised clothes pins. The next night was the Peppermint Party. The room was con- verted into the Alpha Phi Peppermint Shop, and the actives were dressed in similar red and white striped dresses, made for the occasion. The third and last party was called Starlight Serenade. This time the actives were dressed in black formal dresses and long white gloves. The long mirrors were decorated by a silver crescent with Alpha Phi on them and stars bearing chapter names surrounded them. The party was brought to a close by a candle-light ceremony. During the spring the Alpha Phi ' s had an over- night Cabin Party out at Crabtree. They also had a tea party for Joyce Placek Heine, the district governor of Beta Nu Chapter. Then on Easter Sunday morning the traditional Senior Breakfast was held. Also, miscellaneous showers were given throughout the spring for Gloria Bowen and Joan Gaudynski, the Milwaukee flash. Thus ended the year with the same blaze of glory that it started out with. DELTA DELTA DELTA The Alpha Omicron chapter of Tri Delt initiated Noretta Marie Cuesta, a sophomore of Tampa, Florida, early in the fall. With their twenty-two new pledges, the Tri- Delts delved into 1 945-46 with new energy and new goals in sight. Although some of their members left during the summer and at the end of the semester, many of the old members were still here to carry on. Mary Jo Taylor kept on as a Nurses Aide and took up the office of Recording Secretary of W.S.G.A. As a sideline of W.S.G.A. she also was Chairman of the Committee for planning the new Recreation Center. Also on W.S.G.A., Ruth Ann 272 Duffy served as President of Brown House. She also was elected to Phi Kappa Delta. B. A. Taylor, the illustrious President of W.S.G.A., also was elected to Phi Kappa Delta, and to White Duchy as well. Outside of her judicial work, she also found time to be true to the Navy, Freshmen advisers were represented by Jane Brackney, Fran Kidder, and Nancy Wegner. Nancy was also a Nurses Aide, and another Navy supporter, as her third finger, left hand will testify. Sophomore honors were handed to Carolyn Bunn, Martha Johnson, and Martha Rudy, who were selected to Sandals. The two Marthas, plus Mary Sargeant, were also elected to Ivy. Until her graduation in February, Dee Todd served as treasurer of Social Standards, and also was a Nurses Aide. The social calendar started off with the Founder ' s Day Banquet on Thanksgiving Eve at Harvey ' s Restaurant. Then the annual Christmas party was held in the chapter room Monday night before East Campus adjourned for vacation. The twenty- two pledges were formally presented at a very suc- cessful Pledge Dance in the Ark. After the second semester began, the pledges who had slaved away to make that C average, beamed proudly at their new pins at Initiation. Following this, the traditional Pansy Breakfast was held. Although these were the only planned functions, the Tri- Delts often met in their chapter room for informal get-togethers with the pledges and the actives in order that their close circle of friends would in- clude not only the girls in their dorms but also their sorority sisters. The third district, which includes the chapter at Duke, received a new co-president this year, Mrs. James Steele Williams, of Washington, D. C, a member of Beta Zeta chapter at Transylvania Uni- versity. Tri Delts in all parts of the country spon- sor funds for various worthy purposes. The Gen- eral Scholarship Fund, Local Scholarship Funds, and scholarships for women in Chinese Universities are all sponsored by Delta Delta Delta chapters. The Alpha Omicron chapter at Duke contributed mostly to the General Scholarship Fund. Of personal interest is the news that two Tri Delts were married last fall. They were Camille Caroline Clark and Henrietta Elizabeth Bowne. The Tri Delts got the largest number of pledges — twenty-seven in all. They were: Barbara Arm- strong, Patricia Bassett, Suzi Beall, Elizabeth Ann Bledsoe, Carol Burnham, Chili Clark, Elizabeth Harper, Dorothy Harris, Nancy Henry, Eleanor Ann Hunter, Laurie Izlar, Barbara Matthaus, Patricia Messerly, Joyce Purinton, Carolyn Reed, Phyllis Riley, Martha Rudy, Suzanne Thompson, Bernice Wadlington, Jane Wildins, Jo Patton, Barbara Brittain, Martha Johnson, Rose Ann Jacobs, and Marion Fox, DELTA GAMMA The officers of the Beta Theta chapter of Delta Gamma for 1945-46 were: Elsie Russell, prexy; Lois Hanlon, vice president; Trix Gross, recording secretary; Barbara Pearse, corresponding secretary; and Ruth Neuhoff, treasurer. During the year the sorority entered into many of the university ' s activities and received many honors. Althea Hill was elected to Phi Kappa Delta, Pi Mu Epsilon and served as president of the Y. Trixie Gross was elected to Phi Kappa Delta, Phi Beta Kappa, Chi Delta Phi, and Social Standards. Barbara Pearse served as Photography Editor of the Chanticleer, Treasurer of the Junior Y Council, and was also elected to Chi Delta Phi. Besides Barb and Thea the Y had help from Ruth Newhoff on the Y Cabinet and Muriel McDer- mott who was president of the Junior Y Council. Mickey was also president of the Bench and Bar. Besides her Y work, Ruth was elected to Pi Mu Epsilon and was a Marshal. Last but not least, Ann Stapleford was president of the Town Girls, and Lois Hanlon was in F.A.C., Choir, and Sigma Delta Pi. The activity schedule was pushed aside somewhat this year with the heavy social schedule that took place. The year started out with a tea for the National President on October 4 and 5 and con- tinued with a pre-initiation party on October 21. A week later the Pledge Party was given and two weeks after that the Pledge Banquet took place. On November 30 the whole sorority got together and had a cabin party, and just before we went home for Christmas a party was held in the chapter room. The annual Founder ' s Day Banquet took place as usual on March 1 3, and the Pledge Dance 273 on April i8. On that day, Catherine Armstrong, Frances Bluhm, Marie Harbeur, and Ann Markin were initiated. After that rushing began and eighteen new girls were pledged, after the success- ful Arabian Nights party. Anchor Inn, and the Slumber party. They were: Susan Adams, Nancy Burke, Margaret Cauther, Georg ' ellen Forbus, Mary Jo Gramlin, Lena Harris, Lydia Hutchins, Joan Kansteiner, Jo Anne Kinsey, Pat Moore, Muriel Neal, Nancy Nesmith, Peggy Ann Penfield, Phyllis Register, Mary Robinson, Peggy Tracy, Betty Turner, and Elizabeth Vosburg. Following that will be the spring cabin party, and the year will end with a farewell party for the seniors on May 6. So with a social calendar like that the sorority had plenty of chances to get to- gether and get to know each other well. Delta Gamma installed a new chapter this year at Willamette University in Oregon. The new chapter, Beta Pi, is active in campus activities, and has the honor of claiming five out of twelve stu- dents in Who ' s Who among American Colleges and Universities. Delta Gamma colonized at the University of Miami, also, this year. The system of sorority rooms is used there also, but plans are being made for sorority houses in the future. The installation was planned for the late spring. Beta Theta cooperated with national this year in the fraternity project of aid to the Blind and Sight Conservation. Last summer there were five weddings, three from last year ' s senior class. They were Shirley Decker, Wilma Wouters, and Jean Bennett. Two others. Dot Shankle and Miriam Hoyle, now write Mrs. before their names. Lighting the way to the alter were the diamonds worn by Lew Stewman and Margaret Cauther. KAPPA ALPHA THETA With a philosophy of nothing ventured, nothing gained Bettie Locke Hamilton back in 1870, de- cided that even if she couldn ' t be a Phi Gam (she was their sweetheart ) she could belong to a fra- ternity. As a result, Kappa Alpha Theta came into being at DePauw University in Indiana. To- day Duke ' s chapter of Theta has an almost-filled membership of thirty-five actives and twenty-two pledges. This year Duke ' s Beta Rho Chapter of Theta was ruled by Pat Hanson, president; Charlotte Fariss, vice president; Bill Church, treasurer; and Neon O ' Neill, secretary. In 1945-46, more than ever, the Thetas played an important part in honorary organizations and in activities. Dot Lewis and Babs Gosford had the outstanding honor of being tapped to both Phi Kappa Delta and White Duchy, while Gos, Gloria Fletemeyer, Fran Ellis, Merewyn Stollings, and Nancy Hanks were elected to Student Government. Pat Way, Laura Schwartz, and Jamie Branch were appointed to Social Standards, and Peggie Otto was appointed to the Student Forum. The Sopho- mores came roaring through by getting Presh Divine, B. J. Culbreth, Jan Camphausen, Fran Ellis, and Merewyn Stollings elected to Sandals, and Marjorie Coldwell, Leni Lester, and Presh tapped to Ivy. Dot Lewis, Peggie Otto, and Pat Hanson were Senior class officers while Peg Wil- kinson and Betty Trask served the Junior class and Ruth Harrell was elected secretary of the Fresh- man class. Kay Mayers, Editor of the Archive, and Libby Shanley, Co-ed Editor of the Chanti- cleer niigrated to Publications Row. Libby, along with Flete, also was elected to Publications Board. Six upperclassmen were elected to F.A.C. — Peggy Wilkinson, Peggie Otto, Charlotte Farriss, Betty Trask, Marcia Anderson, and M. A. Wine- land. Along the social side, the beauty (?) of the chap- ter was recognized as D ' Arlene Brink, Shirley Mendenhall, Pat Way, Betty Rushing, Libby Shanley, and Peg Otto were chosen as six of the eighteen candidates for Beauty Queen. Much to the joy of all. Peg was crowned the official Chanti- cleer Beauty Queen at the annual Co-ed Ball in November. A picnic was held just after the pledge banquet out at Fisher ' s cabin. Then on December i the annual pledge dance was held in the Union Ball- room and the twenty-two pledges were formally presented. Two weeks later the Christmas party was held in the chapter room for pledges and ac- tives. Thetas went South to Myrtle Beach in the spring and had a gala week-end. Mrs. Hagger, the alumni adviser, entertained the seniors with a 274 tea, and Mrs. Wright gave a party for the chapter. Socials were held every Thursday in the chapter room, with good food, much gab, and great bridge games. Thetas and SAEs got together and in- troduced the Club Fiesta to the campus, hoping to set a precedent to be followed by other fraterni- ties and sororities in future years. It was held in the Women ' s Gym and was night club style com- plete with cigarette girls and hat checkers. This year the chapter repeated the traditional three rush parties: the Hawaiian party, the Wizard of Oz party, and Black Champagne party. Bobbie Mill, rush chairman, with the cooperation of the entire chapter, came through with successful rush- ing results. The twenty-one new pledges were: Betty Becker, Jamie Branch, D ' Arlene Brink, Har- ryette Cockrell, Carolyn Estes, Nancy Hanks, Ruth Harrell, Nancy Hedden, Mary Hendricks, Joan Klonke, Shirley Mendenhall, Charlotte Mill, Jean Noble, Susan Pecktal, Betty Rushing, Sara Ann Stewart, Edith Tynes, Sis Watson, Jean White, Lillian Wooten, and Turissa Wright. During the second semester it was planned to have a cabin party and also a coffee for the professors. And so the year went . . . not all work and no play by a long shot. KAPPA DELTA The green and white ribbons of the KDs were worn by twenty pledges this year, bringing the total membership of the Sigma Delta chapter to fifty-one. Perhaps it was the Starlight Roof that got them or perhaps it was the KD Hades, but no matter what it was the KDs are proud of their new pledge class. With B. J. Bledsoe as president; Ann Craig as secretary; and Monkey Walters as treasurer; the Kappa Deltas divided the year evenly between social and extra-curricular activities. Many of their members served on the W.A.A. Board, namely, Nancy Hunter, Monkey Walters, and Pat Marshall. Pat Marshall and Sally Dickerson con- trolled the Junior class as president and vice presi- dent respectively. The freshmen were controlled by Jo Weiland, Helen Mickelson, Monkey Walters, and Peg Lowrance who all were selected to be on F.A.C. Social Standards was represented by Peg Lowrance, and Pat Weiland. Ginny Gunn (the girl who writes the stories) was elected to Chi Delta Phi, while Sara Huckle was the Advertising Manager of the Archive. The beauty of the KDs was represented by Helen Mickelson who was selected as one of the eighteen candidates for Beauty Queen. Virginia Lee Thorne, Virginia Gunn, and Pat Weiland were elected members of the Modern Dance Club. The new pledges of the Sigma Delta chapter in- cluded: Nina Arnold, Dolly Brim, Betsy John Hur- ley, Frances Emmet, Elizabeth Hoff, Mary Eliza- beth Hunter, Leslie Moseley, Dorothy Nobles, Martha McCrary, Mary Ella Rothrock, Celia Pickens, Ann Rankin, June Sumner, Dorothy Tin- nin, Betty Sue Westbrook, Mary Wimberly, Doro- thy Woodward, and Doris Harkey. In order that these extra-curricular activities wouldn ' t overpower the social side of college life, the KDs had a heavy social schedule. They started out by giving a pledge banquet for their new pledges in the fall, and also a cabin party in the fall. Before the semester ended, a Christmas Charity Party was given, as was the annual Christ- mas Party in the chapter room. Also the Pledge Class Party preceded the Initiation Banquet which came in February. To bring the faculty and alum- ni closer to the sorority a tea was given in their honor. In the spring another cabin party was held, and at the end of the year a farewell party was given to all the graduating seniors. In order to further the sorority spirit, the Kappa Deltas held, every other Thursday night, a small informal party in the chapter room. So by the time that the end of May rolled around all the KDs felt that they really belonged to the sorority, and they knew that neither the many friendships that they had made during the year nor the good times that they asso- ciated with these friends would ever be forgotten. Edith Deyton kept the chapter in close contact with National by writing them about Sigma Delta ' s ac- tivities. The National Magazine, The Angelas of Kappa Delta included in its January issue a long discussion of Duke ' s chapter and a list of its new pledges. Of special interest to all KDs was the installation of the Beta Lambda Chapter at Bowl- ing Green State University, Bowling Green, Ohio, on January i8. And so, living up to their ode of High friendship patterned on eternal law must take its being from 275 the gleaming one — Beauty . . . Goodness . . . , the Kappa Dehas experienced another successful year. KAPPA KAPPA GAMMA Each year is a blue year for the Kappas — fig- uratively speaking, that is. For many ' s the day during the year that the dark and light blue en- sembles of Kappa Kappa Gamma are arrayed throughout the campus. This year the dark and light blue colors of KKF were seen on thirty-one actives and nineteen pledges, just fifty of the 36,000 national members. This year the Kappas placed the leadership of their group in the hands of Bar- bara Smith, with Linda Bell as vice president, Nancy Upshaw as treasurer, Jeanne Kiley as cor- responding secretary, and Ann Harrell as recording secretary. Besides the Kappa keys that they wear, the Kap- pas are forever in search of other keys, such as So- cial Standards, W.S.G.A., and COGS. Those that were on Social Standards this past year are Emily Anderson, Marian Van Trine, and Mar- garet Wiley. Ruth K. HoUmeyer served on Sut- dent Government as president of Aycock House, and Harding Boehme was elected last spring to the responsible position of Chairman of the COGS Committee. Three sophomores were selected for Sandals; those were Margaret Carter, Kay Lauer, and Marjorie Frey, who served as president of the group. In the literary field, the Kappas were rep- resented on all three publications. Ann Heffner was Editor of the Chanticleer, and Jeanne Kiley helped her as Assistant Editor. On the Chronicle staff, Carolyn Brimberry filled the office of Man- aging Editor, and Dee Gentner held the position of Adversiting Manager of the Archive. Four Kappas further showed their literary genius by being se- lected to Chi Delta Phi; those were Ann Heff ner, Jeanne Kiley, Ca rolyn Brimberry, and Emily An- derson. Also Dee Gentner was elected to Publi- cations Board. From Publication Row and other activities to the Women ' s Gym was not too big a step for some of them to make, for Harding Boehme, Nancy Upshaw, Betty Betts, Marcia Ames, and Marian Van Trine all belonged to Nereidian Club, and Dee Gentner was one of the four girl cheer leaders, and Barbara Lacombe was the sole Kappa in Pegasus. Turning to the more serious campus activities, Barbara Smith was found on Student Forum, and Ann Heffner in Tau Psi Omega. The advisers, unforgettable by the freshmen, included Emily Anderson, Linda Bell, and Ann Sears. The outstanding honor of being tapped to Phi Kappa Delta was bestowed upon Ann Heffner and Harding Boehme. The search for new keys and fields to conquer was forgotten frequentiy as the Kappas concen- trated on social activities. On October 13, the annual Founder ' s Day celebration was held for the members and alumni. Then on October 28 the Pledge Breakfast took place at the Washington Duke Hotel, and two months later on the fifteenth of December these pledges were presented at their annual Pledge Dance. After the first semester ended, the Initiation Banquet was held for all those fortunate pledges that made their C averages, and late in May the Senior Banquet was the last organized social function that took place. But all during the year the Kappa room in the Pan-Hel. House was a crowded meeting place for all the members of Kappa Kappa Gamma who gathered there for the weekly Monday night meetings or after the Sing on Sunday nights or any night when they felt like using and enjoying the privileges of their sorority room. Nora Wain, Beta Iota, Swarth- more, began a lecture tour (in January) in New York, and ended in California in April. She had been in England previous to her tour. She visited many schools having Kappa chapters, under the auspices of the Redpath Bureau. While in Eng- land, last year, Mrs. Wain did much work for the Kappa Kappa Gamma fund. As of July 1945, they had a two thousand seven hundred dollar bal- ance. Mrs. Wain ' s book, The House in Exile added four hundred dollars to the fund. She came to Duke in the latter part of March to address the Delta Beta Chapter and the university. Kappa Kappa Gamma pledged nineteen pledges: Marcia Ames, Betty Betts, Betty Bockmiller, Cherry Clarke, Lillian Dewar, Jo Dibble, Virginia Jones, Anne Henderson, Barbara Lacombe, Anne Le- Compte, Emma Manley, Lucille McLean, Marcia Norcross, Mickey Olson, Joan Richards, Joan Wharton, Nancy Williamson, Marilyn Barnett and Betty Stallings. 276 PHI MU Under the mighty hand of Bev Futz, the Phi Mu sorority kept its same standards of good char- acter and unity that they have been noted for since the founding of their chapter here at Duke. They have continued to enter into all campus activities wholeheartedly besides maintaining this chapter unity. Peggy Throne, the literary genius of Duke Uni- versity, is well-known among all students for her contributions to the Archive and Duke Anthology. She also was president of Chi Delta Phi, a member of Duke Players, Glee Club, and on the Pan-Hel- lenic Council. Jackie Carter was also on the Council and in the Glee Club besides being on F.A.C., Choir, and Chi Delta Phi. Gini Kauble was another musical member, being in the Glee Club and Choir. She also was on F.A.C. and served as a Marshal. Jackie Quinn was president of Pi Mu Epsilon. Clem Worthy was on F.A.C, Social Standards, a Marshal, and vice president of Jarvis. Lousy Smith was also on F.A.C. Jean Pattee worked diligently to make Ivy, Sigma Delta Pi, and Peg- asus. She also was a Nurse ' s Aide and on the Sophomore Y Commission. Ann Bliss accom- panied her as a Nurse ' s Aide. Jean Rogers worked on Duke Players, and Mamie MacLawhorn and Marie Griswold both were in the Glee Club and Choir. Helen Gordon received a COGS key, an Ivy key, a Chanticleer key, and also served on the Sophomore Y Commission and as a Nurse ' s Aide. Bev Weaver and Christine Wagoner were both on the Sophomore Y Commission. Jim McRae, a transfer pledge, worked on the Chanti- cleer Editorial Staff. Last but not least was Dottie Cox, who lived in Southgate until her grad- uation in January. During her last semester of her senior year she belonged to the Glee Club and Sigma Delta Pi, the honorary Spanish fraternity. So the members could get to know the pledges better and so the sorority could keep in close con- tact with each other, socials were held on Friday afternoons in the chapter room. They also held Open Houses throughout the year in the room. The first rush party featured a Gay Nineties revue complete with swinging doors, a can-can chorus, and a brass spittoon. The second night the chap- ter gave a party set in the sophisticated atmosphere of a New York Penthouse with appropriate night- club entertainment starring the comic imitations of Bette Davis, Katharine Hepburn, and Jimmy Du- rante by one of the very talented members, Mar- garet Throne. The last party was centered about the impressive Phi Mu dream cake, a traditional ceremony in our chapter. They concluded the season with great success, pledging twenty-five new members: Elizabeth Ashley, Betty Baker, Barbara Blackham, Mitzi Barker, Shirley Blue, Jane Cald- well, Marian Davis, Willoughby Farley, Dorothy Friffity, Ruth Haigh, Betty Sue Haward, Thelma Klussman, Martha Launius, Jim McRae, Mary Jean McSpaaden, Nina Sue Moser, Marie Quinn, Frances Simpson, Sarah Simpson, Dorothy Skene, Mary Jane Smith, Dorothy Spoon, Eugenia Stone, Joye Tilley, and Elizabeth Wolf. Plans were being made for the National Conven- tion to be held on Mackinac Island in July. The Grand Hotel on Historic Island in Northern Mich- igan was selected for the Victory Convention. It has been the scene of many national conventions of other fraternities in past years. The 1 946 con- vention will be in a special kind of a spotlight be- cause it will mark a resumption of national-scale meetings after four eventful years during which winning of the war took precedence over all else. PI BETA PHI Just as William Tell with arrow straight and true hit the apple off his son ' s head, so the Pi Phis and their arrows have managed to strike at the core of campus life. Headed by Betty Jewell as president; Sara Clark- son, vice president; Barbara Main, secretary; Bar- bara Garrison, treasurer; and Eleanor Brooks, cor- responding secretary, they have shown that they have their share of beauty, brains, and muscles. Betsy Buchanan, Jean Rockey, Gloria Koltinsky, Jo Rae, Libby Vining, and Mary Morse serve on the W.A.A. Board, and Ann Smoot and Ellie Mar- tin were two very capable cheer leaders. As for beauty, Mary Morse, Ellie Brooks, Gloria Koltin- sky, and Mary Anne Atkins were chosen as candi- dates for Beauty Queen. That they have brains has been recognized in the fact that three Pi Phis were chosen to serve on Social Stzmdards, namely, 277 Mary Morse, Betty Jewell, and Lois Neifert, and three Pi Phis served on W.S,G.A. — Mary Ann Gzis- sady, Margaret Taylor and Sally Bell. Ginny Suitor and Mairy Ann Cassady were both elected to Phi Kappa Delta and White Duchy. Down on Publications Row Smoot was seen holding the Chronicle together as Co-ed Editor, and Winkie Lewis kept the accounts straight as Business Manager. Mary Ann Cassady served on Publica- tions Board while Margaret Ann Frans spread the Archive around the campus as their Circulation Manager. The F.A.C ' ers included EUie Martin, Becky Toms, Goochie Taylor, and Ginny Suitor. Ginny Suitor also served on Student Forum as president. Libby Vining and Charlene Parker lent their talent to the Triple Trio, and Charlene also acted as president of the Glee Club. And before she is forgotten in the rush, Ginny Suitor also not only served on Student Fonim but also was pres- ident of it. Like all activities, they can grow a little boring after a while; so some form of social life had to be provided. Among the many social functions that were held, the Pi Phis had an Open House on No- vember 24 after the Carolina game, a Christman Open House before the W.S.G.A. Dance on De- cember 15, and their annual Pledge Dance at the first of the year. Audrey Bashore did our Valen- tine Pledge Dance up right. It was held in the East Campus Union and the room was completely disguised with Valentine decorations. Initiation was held March 12 and the Founder ' s Day Ban- quet was April 30 at the Washington-Duke Hotel. North Carolina Alpha came over from Chapel Hill to join in the celebration. A cabin party was given at Crabtree on the last week-end of April. Besides their various activities on the campus, scholastic and social, the members of Pi Beta Phi have managed to reach out into a broader scope of work and give their service. They contributed a large sum of money to the American Red Cross and Canadian Red Cross. They also sponsor a Physiotherapy Scholarship Fund. So far. Pi Phi has been able to help seventy girls secure training in Physical Therapy. The Carnival Party, Pi Phi Paradise, and Back Home for Keeps, were successfully given and the results were: Lois Neifert, Joan Birming- ham, Bunny Mall, Mary Ann Atkins, Jane Kome- gay, Margaret Rodwell, Billie Beckerdite, Mary Brinkman, Lou Hickox, Mary Arden Tucker, Ann Edmunds, Ellen Sawyer, Patricia Willard, Lillian George, Meriwether Wright, and Nancy Clover. Together with the regular University functions, many was the week-end that all academic work was forgotten and the gay social life was again taken up, which made a happy and most successful year for all. SIGMA KAPPA Although the Sigma Kappais had to postpone their rushing season until the second semester, the actives carried on in fine spirit throughout the year. Ably led by their President, Gil Minnich, they held their sorority group together and at the same time expanded their interests to all campus activities. Gil Minnich, the illustrious president, served on the Social Standards Committee. Betty Akers served on F.A.C., W.A.A., and the YWCA Social Service Committee. Pat Corwin and Betty Sue Gantt also were on YWCA and W.A.A. Jeanne Eagles, the literary member of the group, worked on the Chronicle and in her spare time wrote the college column for the Durham Sun. She also was on Duke Players. Gertrude O ' Malley, affectionately called Mike, was on the Hub Committee of COGS, and the Chairman of the Social Committee in her house. Jeanne Harmon was secretary of Brown House, and on the YWCA Public Affairs Committee. Eleanor Clardy served on Duke Players and the Sophomore Y Commission. Kathleen Queally also worked on Duke Players, besides being chair- man of the Hospital Committee for the Y , and on the Executive Board of the Cantibury Club. Three members were in the Music Study Club; those were Mary Kornfeld, Cora Lynn Young, and Ezu-lyn Reed, who was elected the Social Chairman. Martha Yokeley, the sole Sigma Kappa in Nere- dian and Pre-Med. Society, also was on Duke Players. Last but not least, Dot Turner was on the Hospital Committee of the Y. The social schedule was equally as heavy £is their extra-curricular schedule. During the first se- mester they had such functions as a dinner and parties in the chapter room, and at various times 278 during the year they invited speakers to attend their get-togethers. In February, the Sigma Kappas went though their rushing period. That was followed by a pledge breakfast, a pledge dance, and the tradi- tionzJ initiation banquet. Later in the spring when the rain ceased and the sun began to shine brightly again, they took a week-end off to relax and bask on the beach. They all set out in a char- tered bus for Virginia Beach, and had a typical beach week-end — wonderful. Later there was a week-end at the new W.A.A. cabin party house. The pledges topped off the picnics with one for the actives. The pledge officers gave a tea for pledge officers of other sororities to enable them all to get better acquainted. A new project was an issue of Alpha Sighs, a newspaper with pictures of all the girls, brief write-ups, and a tribute to Mike O ' Mal- ley, their pledge trainer. Despite delayed rushing, the Sigma Kappas were not handicapped, and twenty-one pledges happily joined the ranks. They were: Mary Ruth Arm- strong, Jean Brown, Anne Cato, Alice Chamison, Jayne Cosby, Barbara Goan, Helen Jungmeyer, Jean Kirmer, Helen Mapp, Margaret Nelson, Edna Poplin, Wilma Roberts, Tillie Rogers, Lettie Lois Saylor, Peggy Stemple, Nancy Warren, Lois Wil- loughby, Betty Jane Hathaway, Martha McAdams, Dot Meredith, and Anne Woodward. ZETA TAU ALPHA Well balanced is the word to describe the Zetas. For they have in their midst everything from beauty queens to Phi Betes. This versatile sorority was under the leadership of Carol Man- ahan, president; Sarah Jordan, vice president; Marilyn Gibson, secretary; and Mary Allen, treas- urer. These officers were backed by a unified group of girls, each one outstanding in her own particular field. Sarah Jordan, the Phi Bete of the Zetas, was not only vice president of the Y, but also was treas- urer of Kappa Delta Pi. Emily Boyd, a transfer adviser and a Sandal, also found time for Duke players and the Madrigal Singers. Betty Murchi- son was also on F.A.C. Marilyn Gibson was elected vice president of the Modern Dance Club. Nancy McCrummen, the treasurer of the Y, was an- other F.A.C. ' er and Duke Players member. Jane Bruce was the president of the Sophomore Y Commission. Connie Merrill, the talented musi- cal member, was treasurer of the Music Study Club. The tremendous job of president of the Pan- Hellenic Council was awarded to Ruth Romaine. Carolyn Manahan, the illustrious Zeta president from Delaware, served on Socizil Standards and Duke Players. The Zetas had two candidates among the eighteen beauty queens; those were Til Paty and Lindy Stivers. Lindy was also a mem- ber of Social Standards. Their social functions were hot and heavy the first semester. They started out with an Open House for returning alumnae on October 6, the Homecoming Week-end. On October 29 a party was given for Kit drum in honor of her approach- ing marriage to Ensign Frank Erwin. On Novem- ber 13 the pledge banquet was held at the Hope Valley Country Club, and on November 21 an Open House was given in the room before the Co- ed Ball. Four days later a breakfast was given in the chapter room for the members. After Christ- mas, the pledge class was presented on January 9 at a dance given in the Ark. This was followed by Initiation and the Initiation Banquet two months later at the Hope Valley Country Club. Mary Stacy Jackson, president of the Alpha provence, gave a tea on March 8 for the Zetas. The guests included sorority presidents, house mothers. Miss Wilson, and Dean Baldwin. Marilyn Elman was awarded the honor ring given each year to one of the pledges. Marcia Crane received the silver identification Zeta Tau Alpha pledge bracelet. March 16 found the Zetas at Perry ' s Cabin swim- ming, dancing, playing Softball and canoeing with their dates. The chapter also spent a week-end at the beach. The pledges included: Nancy Abbott, Eleanor Allen, Eleanor Brinn, Margaret Brooks, Sid Bunn, Marcia Crane, Margaret Lee Duke, Marilyn Eel- man, Mary Frye, Randy Gardner, Myrtis Jenson, Mary K. Jordan, Irene Lynch, Peggy McFarland, Peggy Merrill, Jeanne Palmer, Betty Rumble, Shirley Shapleigh, Norma Sheehan, Betty Ann Skaale, Betty Smith, Marilyn Stivers, Lillian Stur- gis, Jo Anne Walker, Winifred Wolfe, Kay Woods, and Shirley Zittrouer. 279 MEN ' S PAN-HEL.

IGMA SIGMA every university there are students who for their outstanding ition oj a permanent character. Although these people already the hearts of all the students, a need has been felt for some offi- For this reason a chapter of Alpha Sigma Sigma was established at Duke. Soon after its coloniza- tion the standards of the local chapter began to decline and there were numerous complaints from the national office. This year a particularly threat- ening note was received by the controlling powers of the chapter, and as a result, the requirements for admission have been increased many times. However, even with these markedly rigid qualifi- cations, the Committee on Admissions has found no lack of suitable material for candidates. Duke this year is very unusual in having a large number of students who are excellent examples of the type necessary for the spreading of the notoriety of the organization. Even among such a celebrated group of candi- dates there are some who surpass. These we have placed in the Hall of Fame as examples of the ideals which all neophytes for ASS seek to attain. These people have gone far beyond the level proposed as a standard. HALL OF FAME B. Munro Jim Alexander Marge Cameron Althea Hill Bob DeMott These members of the Hall of Fame have shown a certain inherent quality which marks them as be- longing in the upper strata of this level of society. However, there are many more, who, by their ac- Bill Farren Jean Featherston Jim Earle tivities of this particular academic year have proved themselves worthy of the honor of membership in A S E.

Should the gentle reader ask for a point of view from which he may read this anthology, perhaps I could do no better than to pass on a remark of one of our poets: ' If you care to look into the file of such-and-such a maga- zine, ' he says, ' I know you will find one poem of mine which I regard as respectable, though not as great as Chaucer. ' That has often seemed to me the perfect touch- stone for the college anthologist. Nor have I been un- mindful of the warning Robert Frost, in describing the difficulty of breaking into professional print, recently gave a group of Duke students: ' Your teacher is paid to love you; an editor is paid to hate you. ' I hope I have been sufficiently ' editorial. ' . . . —WILLIAM BLACKBURN in the Foreword. 5% x8% . 297 pages. 68 pieces. 29 engravings. $3.00 DUKE UNIVERSITY PRESS : DURHAM, N.
