Always willing to aid those who need his services, he has set before us an example of lasting devotion. Commonly known by his host of friends as Shorty, he is closely associated with the Fighting Teachers. He is a loyal follower of all our athletic teams. Many local citizens think of the two as being synonymous. This lceen interest in athletics started in his youth, and during early manhood he was a professional baseball player. The realization of Shorty's dream for the college was fulfiled with the construction of the new, spacious Colebank Gymnasium. Dramatics is another one of Shorty's many interests. He enjoys amateur produc- tions very much and is often seen attending chapel programs and taking part in group singing and other activities. Shorty never attended any college or university. He has been schooled the difficult way, by experience. He is a most interesting conversationalist and enjoys mingling with students and teachers. His sense of humor is remarkable and he greets every one with a courteous, friendly smile. Shorty was born and reared near Willces-Barre, Pennsylvania, later moving to West Virginia. He has been a resident oi Fairmont for several years and is a devoted father and husband to his family. All three of his children have attended Fairmont State Collegeg Mrs. lohn Cranwell, the former Emma Heim, a member of the class of '35. Mrs. L. A. Vtfallman, the former Louise Heim, a member of the graduate class of '32, and his only son lohn Heim, lr. who is serving with the United States Army in Camp Dupont, Delaware, attended this institution in l937. He was first employed in this institution as a night watchman, later becoming building custodian. His duties and obligations are performed promptly and meet with the satisfaction and approval of all. We recognize him as a leader, a friend and an influence to the students on our campus. Shorty, the students of Fairmont College wish you tasting happiness! 5 1: n I I , 1 ln 5 3 New Times Demand New Measures , and .New Men.-Lowell RegardlBSB of where Fairmont College ath- letic teams travel, or when the famous Maroon and White Band plays, or wherever that Fair- mont College spirit prevails, the symbol of our college activities is always present. Realizing this, the Fighting Teacher, symbolic of our school, was selected as a theme for the current number of The Mound. The Fighting Teacher illustrations were created by the capable Ernest Freed, a member of the Art Department. Through his careful and undaunted work, the Staff was able to com- plete the theme. The staff expresses its grati- tude to Mr. Freed for his efforts and untiring patience. It gd- N1 F w U Progress, Mcm's Distinctive Mark Alone.-Browning Founded in 1865, Fairmont State Teachers College has grown into an educational insti- tution Which features a beautiful and spacious campus. Newest among the buildings located on our campus is Colebank Gymnasium. Boast- ing of two gym floors, a modern swimming pool, clinics, Well-equipped class rooms, locker rooms, showers, offices and equipment rooms, this building was put into service for the first time this year. Many students still in school can recall memories of the old gym, commonly called The Barn, being torn down and replaced by a magnificent new gymnasium. Construction of this building was intently watched by all connected with the school. In future years We hope to be able to help recall these memories by these pages of snapshots.

DR JOSEPH RCSIER Renowned in educational circles, Dr. Rosier for 25 years has accepted and offered guidance to students and faculty members of the college in deep and earnest interest. He has been an inspiration to pupils and to teachers. Through him the Student Council organiza- tion has become one of the finest in the State and has exercised democratic powers. Dr. Rosier believes in young people and in their integrity when given responsibility. A native of the state, Dr. Rosier was born in the village of Wilsonburg, in Harrison County. He is a descendant of a long line of honorable West Virginia ancestors. Educated in the elementary schools of Har- rison County, he began his teaching career in 1890. Thus for more than 50 years he has been actively engaged in the field of education. From a village school Dr. Rosier went to the prin- oipalship of the Salem school, thence to the superin- tendency of the schools of Harrison County. It was there that his public career began in earnest. At the same time he was furthering his formal education and in 1895 received his B. Pd. degree from Salem College. Later he received an A. M. degree, and in 1933, after the National Education Association had honored him as its president, Marshall College conferred an LL.D. on him. Dr. Rosier, who is, and always will be, Uncle Ioe to thousands of men and women in all professions and businesses who have come in contact with him through the years, has brought national distinction and honor to the teaching profession, as well as to the entire State of West Virginia when he filled the office of the Iunior United States Senator from West Virginia. He has always been cognizant of his duties and his responsi- bilities in whatever role he has been placed, for honors have come to him because he merited them. So, to Dr. Roster, the students of the college are proud to acclaim him as their friend-one who appreciates their willingness to obtain an education. For him the Teuchefs chair became a ihrone.-Longfellow OLIVER SHURTLEFF Dean of Instruction . . . Acting President in Charge of Professional Duties. JOHN WESLEY PEN-CE Dean of Men . . .

Playing regular in his freshman and sophomore years, he was out most of this season due to injuries. He was recently elected Co-Captain of next year's squad. HOWARD YOHO Tub , as he is known to all of the boys, played ex- ceptional football for his first year with all his 225 pounds. One of his most spectacular games was against Salem College. IOSEPH OLIVERIO los was the smallest man on the squad, weighing a mere 135 pounds. His speed and dependency made up for his light weight. loe was inducted into the U. S. Army immediately following football season. IOHN SHILLEY Playing end, Squirrel broke into the starting lineup several times and was a most reliable reserve. His defensive and offensive ability should be valuable to next year's team. ROBERT BARNES For the fourth year of regular playing in the backfield, Bob was one of the most reliable blockers and tacklers on the team. Through his hard, efficient play he was known as a hustler on the team. Coach Wilson will be handicapped next year in trying to fill Bob's position. FRANK MEYERS Frankie was one of the two regular ends held over from last year. l-le sustained a permanent knee injury in the West Virginia Tech game and was forced to retire from athletics. RSITY FOOTBALL STEVE YERGOVICH Steve was perhaps the largest man on the squad, tipping the scales at 235 pounds, But his weight was no handicap to his speed and agileness, as he was one of the fastest runners on the squad. Always willing to play his hardest, Steve was one of the team's most reliable players, ROBERT PENCE Completing his second year as a regular, Bob became recognized by the opposing teams and sport scribes as one of the hardest runners in the state. He handled the fullback position and called signals for the team. Expecta- tions are great for Bob next year. RICHARD BERRY Dick is one of the most vicious tacklers on the squad. His offensive and defensive play from his end position made him one of the spark-plugs of our team, Handi- capped with injuries for several games, he made up for lost time in the last two. FRANK ALLESSIO Playing regular for the second year, Frankie became renowned for his offensive and defensive tactics. He played guard and held that position like the Rock of Gibralter. Along with Kearns, he will serve as Co-Captain next year. LEONARD WALLS Serving as Co-Captain, Fiz was voted one of the best centers in the West Virginia Conference. His rugged defensive playing was dominant in all games. Graduating this year, he will be missed by next year's team. IOHN TATTA Spud played tackle for four years and three of these was voted a place on the West Virginia All-Conference team. He was an exceedingly rugged player on the defense and seldom games were ever made over his position. lohn was forced to guit school and thus was interrupted in his brilliant athletic career. IACK BRAEBENDER Coming from Greenwich, Conn., and playing his second year as a regular. lack was one of the most elusive runners on the team, His running ability helped to place him third among high scorers in the state. His defensive work as safety man also deserves recognition. FORREST MCDOUGAL Playing his second year on the first team, Ted was one of our most efficient blocking backs. Although he carried the ball very little he usually made long gains. We are very fortunate in having him back next year. LAWRENCE DUDAS Larry was one of the few freshmen who made the starting lineup. His defensive and offensive play was spectacular and his pass-receiving ability unsurpassed. Larry's home town is Greenwich, Conn. MITCHELL BODZEK A regular for the fourth year, Mitch was one of the best linesmen in the history of Fairmont College. His will- ingness to co-operate made him one of the most popular athletes on the campus. He also served as Co-Captain. THE SEASON IN REVIEW FAIRMONT VS. WEST LIBERTY Fairmont's Fighting Teachers started the season with a victorious defeat over the West Liberty I-Iilltoppers of Wheeling on September 26. On a 29 yard pass from Pence to Braebender in the second period Fairmont scored the only touchdown of the game and added another tally on Pence's extra point placement. Fighting a brilliant and hard earned game throughout the last half, State defeated the defending West Virginia Conference champions, 7 to O. FAIRMONT VS. WEST VIRGINIA TECH Suffering a set-back in the second game of the year, Fairmont State lost by a heart-breaking one point margin to the West Virginia Tech Bears. In a steady rain the Teachers were forced to confine their game to unspectacular running plays. Although drawing first blood, the Bears came back in the last period to score, defeating Fairmont, 7 to 6. FAIRMONT VS. CALIFORNIA TEACHERS Moving into high gear, Fairmont completely overpowered the helpless California Vulcans. By the use of power plays mixed with tricky reverses, the Professors scored in every period. Fairmont sparkled both offensively and defensively, and only once permitted the Vulcans to pass the midfield stripe. Fairmont made twelve first downs to Californids four and defeated the Vulcans, 34 to D. FAIRMONT VS. SHEPHERD Splashinq their way in a drenching rain and ankle-deep mud, the Teachers' smooth-working and hard-charging aggregation flattened the Shepherd Rams.

Without once taking to the air, the Maroon and White warriors defeated the Rams, Z0 to U. FAIRMONT VS. SALEM Recovering Salem's fumble on the fourth play of the game, Fairmont scored in the next three plays on Braebendens 16 yard reverse. Both teams played sterling defensive ball for the remainder of the game with no further scoring. At the final whistle, Fairmont still led, 7 to 0. I-'AIRMONT VS. GLENVILLE Coming to life in the final stanza, Fairmont scored two rapid-fire touchdowns after three quarters of scoreless dueling. Four thousand fans crowded Roster field to see what looked like a scoreless tie when the Professors suddenly exploded. Out of a clear sky the renowned Chattanooga Choo-Choo play. a beautiful pass from Pence to Braebender, scored the first touchdown. Iohn Tatta, ace lineman, intercepted a forward pass and raced 30 yards for the second touchdown which clinched the game. Final score, 13 to U. FAIRMONT VS. CONCORD Suffering a severe defeat at the hands of Concord, State was nosed out of the Conference title. Although injuries and bad breaks had splattered Fairmonfs starting line-up, Coach Wilson's team went down in glorious defeat. This ended one of the best football seasons in Fairmont Co1lege's history. Final score-25 io U. VARSITY BASKETB LL WALTER OWENS Walt's ability to retrieve the ball from the banking- boards and his low, fast dribbling made him one of the best guards in the Conference. Serving with Belcastro as Co-Captain, he was one of the best leaders that Fairmont College has produced. JOHN DEWEY HAWKIN S Dewey's cool, aggressive play made him a very no-e ticeable player at all times. Transferring from a southern school, he became the backbone of the defense and his passing ability made him an important cog in Fairmont's fast-breaking offense. ROBERT PENCE Completing his third year, Bob was recognized as one of the outstanding collegiate basketball players in the state. Chosen on the West Virginia All-Conference Basketball team, Bob scored 446 points. For the second consecutive year he has scored over 400 points and placed second in state high-scoring. FRANK BELCASTRO Completing his third year on the team, Frank placed third in squad scoring. Although small in stature, his ball-hawking and dead shooting made him one of the most valuable men on the team. l-le was Co-Captain. THOMAS IUDY Due to the seasoned veterans, Tom was iorded to a reserve position but played sterling ball when he saw action. This was significant when Salem downed Fairmont in the West Virginia Conference Tournament at Buckhan- nan. Tom has a promising future in three more years of college basketball. IACK MILLER Returning to the team after last year's eye injury, Punkin established himself as one of the best pivot men in the conference. His accurate play under the bank- ing boards helped him score 280 points, second in squad scoring. ROBERT IOHNSON Handling his reserve position with the accuracy and technique ot a veteran, Bob was the only out-oi-state boy on the squad. He comes irom Pennsylvania. In future years his playing will be valuable to the team. GEORGE HAMRICK George played high school ball at Grafton, W. Va., and as a freshman played brilliant ball for the Teachers. One of our best utility men, he could play any position efficiently. Three more years of college basketball should prove his potentialities. JOHN VICTOR Iohn, a guard, saw the least service of any member of the squad. During the time he did play he proved to the others that he had the makings of a good defensive man. LEONARD MUTH Competing in practically every sport, Len is one of our most versatile athletes. As a freshman, he proved his ability on the basketball court with his stellar brand of reserve play. Gaining experience this year, he will be invaluable to next year's squad. WARREN OWENS A brother of Walt Owens, this other half of the Clarks- burg, W. Va., twin combination was a very dependable reserve with aggressive play. A hard player, he could always be depended upon to play his best whenever needed. Left to right. first row-Frank Belcas- tro.
