BUSINESS MANAGER 337E HONOR A MEMBER OF THE CLASS OF I892 WHO. IN l89l, CONCEIVED THE IDEA OF A PUBLICA- TION WHICH WOULD GIVE A SPECTRUM OF LIFE AT GETTYSBURG: WHO FIRST SUGGESTED THE NAME THAT THE BOOK BEARS: AND WHO. AS EDITORI DIRECTED THE WORK WHICH RESULTED IN THE PUBLICATION OF THE FIRST SPECTRUM. TO THE REVEREND DOCTOR GEORGE ALBERT GETTY. WE DEDICATE THIS BOOK. garage QMM A STORY OF A HALF CENTURY OF PUBLICATION gifty years ago, in the spring of 1891, a small group of ten enthusiastic students began work together with the in- tention of compiling and publishing a rec- ord that would reflect, in tangible form, their college life. From the years during which they lived a happy existence on the campus, they gleaned the richest, merriest experiences that were theirs and bound them together to preserve forever unfor- gettable college days. With little hack- ground compared to what we today have, but with their own initiative, ambition, and perseverance as aids, they labored diligently with the advancement of the interests of their Alma Mater as their constant thought and endeavor. After many days of both heartening and trying experiences, their task was hnishea', and their goal reached. They had successfully begun what was destined to become the treasured tradition that our SPECTRUM is today. It was the wish of the stajf of the 1892 SPECTRUM that their successors take up the standard where they left off and hear it ever onward and upward. There is ready evidence that the faith has been kept, and that the following generations have never L71 , :3;- lost sight of the goal set by these initiators of our college year-hook. Each year the fundamentals of the record have seen va- ried changes, and the presentation has taken on novel form, pleasing to some, less pleasing to others. But that is of little con- sequence When the underlying purpose re- mains true and undying. Enthusiasm for each new edition is ever great, assuring justzfcation for its objective. Since the memorable year of its first publication, there has been only one year, 1895, when the SPECTRUM failed to appear. Even that one time, however, was not due to lack of I81 spirit or loss of faith in the goal, but rathet to a more practical causwlimited finan- cial means. The junior class at that time was small and hesitated to undergo the financial responsibilities. Publication of the hook the next year is strong proof that nothing had sugered omitting one edition. In these present forty-nine volumes of the SPECTRUM we hnd not only a picture of the moving tide of student life on our campus since 1891, but also a history of our col- lege since that time, pre- sented in an informal yet most effective way. Through these volume; can be traced the changes that have occurredenot only such obvious changes as new faculty members and presidents, but also their influence, favorable I91 or otherwise, on student life. The SPEC- TRUM during its lifetime has seen four president; in office, has watched the faculty increase from fifteen to forty-five. It has seen the co-eds come, leave, and come back again. It has seen the great expansion of campus activities and organizations, and the addition of eight fraternities. In all phases of our college life the SPECTRUM has kept its unfailing record. As we, the 1942 staff, proudly took up the standard, it was with the desire to wise- ly expand our energy and talent, as our predecessors have done, in the interest of our Alma Mater. We have accepted proudly the task of putting forth this vol- ume marking the fiftieth anniversary of the SPECTRUM. It is our hope that this, the forty-ninth SPECTRUM, may form an- other important link in the never-ending chain begun in 1891. Just as in 1891, our college life today has many sides: classes, dorms, fraternities, athleticseall places where we gain experi- ences which are to be integrated in the years to come into memories of the years that have passed. The memory of past favors is like a rainhOWehright, Vivid, and beautiful, but it soon fades away? In or- der that our rainbow of memory may he ever clear in a constantly changing sky, we have here divided it into its component colors, its spectrum. Thus each part can no! be seen separately in its own glory, and, at the same time, as a fraction of the great whole. All the fun, joys, heartaches, and mishaps are here presented in informal lit- erary and pictorial style, and in separate, well-organized form, a gay account of our lHoREL Ltss mem .. vv-wr-p-gyw... i A college days which may serve as a treasure house wherein our memories are kept and preserved? Let the day never come when this SPECTRUM no longer stimulates past recollection of Gettysburg and our cam- pus! To those who have already passed be- yond the local college gates, but who must never withdraw from our closely hound I121 circle, we present this SPECTRUM, with the hope that it may serve to bring you still This, we believe, we may accomplish hy acquaint- closer to our common Alma Mater. ing you in some fashion with those who have taken your places on the campus, and by showing you from familiar angles the landmarks of your own college experiences. To all others we offer this SPECTRUM a5 a greeting from Gettysburg College and her students, in order that you, too, may be familiar with a scene of joyous living. Aim at the sun, and you may not reach it; but your arrow will fly far higher than if aimed at an object on a level with your- I131 self? With the satisfaction of you, our readers, as our sun, we have shot our arrow into the sky with careful aim. If this SPEC- TRUM, representing the 151141 resting place of our arrow, meets your expectations, we can ask for no greater reward. HENRY W. A. HANSON. D.D.. LL.D. Presidenf of GeHysburg April 2, 1941. To the Readers of the SPECTRUM: College life everywhere has undergone great changes. In this respect, it shows its intimate rela- tion to world-life as a whole. No change is more general than that expressed in extra-curricular activities. The activities are designed primarily to enable the largest possible number of students to gain experience in the field of leadership. This volume presents a birdk-eye-view of our campus. It provides an invaluable record of our student body and what has been attempted by them individually and collectively in the academic year of 1940-41. To our students, this volume will become increasingly a treasured possession. Happy memories will surround them when, in the future years, they take down their SPECTRUM and leaf through its pages. To our friends, this book will give a mirtorei reflection of college life as it is today. Especially to our Seniors do I extend heartiest good wishes. May your successes in campus activities be but a promise of larger achievements that lie ahead. Cordially, Your friend, lSignedl HENRY W. A. HANSON. E161 WILBUR E. TILBERG.

Pmicsmr of Alililary $IIIYIL'I and Taclirx HISTORY OF THE SENIOR CLASS Four years of campus life has wrought a change in the lives of those boys and girls who enrolled in Gettysburg College in the autumn of 1937-3 change which has produced men and women who are destined to aid in solving the problems of a world which finds itself presently confronting the hysteria and fears associated with mundane greeds and godless wars. In the future, when we again turn our thoughts to Gettysburg, we must inevitably recall the events which transpired during these formative four years. Always shall we remember those ignomin- ious freshman customs with G-burg,s last red dinks, the somewhat humiliating punishments meted out to the defiets of tradition, and the mental and physical tortures of Hell Week; most distinctly shall we recall the part our campus ex- ercised in the 75th Anniversary of the Battle and the dedication of the Eternal Light Peace Memo- rial; frequently shall we turn the pages of our Mercury, yearbook and prize-winning Gettysburg- ian to relive these joyous four years; loyally shall we rally to the cause of those athletic teams on which we once played, the forensic teams on which we debated, and the societies whose administration we Seniors have attained; never shall we forget the plays in the gym, the choir trips, the oratory on the chapel rostrum, and our exciting social events-the Prom, the Pan-Hell, and those house parties; and forever shall we cherish those pleas- ant friendships with our fellow students, fraterni- ties, and ever-helpful professors. But long after time has eroded these glorious memories of our days at Gettysburg, the success of our collegiate careers will be measured by the moral and religious convictions, the loyal devotion to the ideals of leadership, honor, integrity, and social efficiency, and the intelligent philosophy of life which we have implanted into out daily lives while on this campus. Only after a lifetime of service to humanity can there be a true evaluation of our four years of college education-and we are now equipped to furnish that service; we now stand ready to use the tools which liberal educa- tion has shaped for us; and we are now prepared to assume responsibility and leadership in a world that desperately needs both. In the future it shall be the moral obligation of each of us to serve our fellow citizens as best we can in a fashion that will bestow credit upon our class and upon our alma mater. Class of 1941, let us utilize the capacities and abilities that edu- cation has developed for the promotion of civili- zationls hopes and needs-science, justice, and Christianity.

Gettysburg I351 HISTORY OF THE JUNIOR CLASS Our story is unspectacular, revealing the rise to posi- tions of campus responsibility and the growth of campus friendships. For three years college has thoroughly ab- sorbed our interest. At one moment we feel as though we came to Gettysburg but yesterday; the next retro- spective glance makes us feel we've always been ab- sorbed in college life. And we never think of our doings as constituting a class history. But this quiet process which every class goes through has all the thrill of a new enterprise for us as we work out our own problems, making our contribution to the college and watching it in turn mold us, When the class of ,4.2 first assembled on the campus our only common bond was the desire to spend four years at Gettysburg. Living on the same campus, studying the same professors, participating in the same activities, going to the same places for the $ame events, falling prey to the same campus sentiment and tradition- these have made us friends. For three years our activ- ities and ambitions have crossed and re-cmssed and become interwoven. Several functions undertaken as a class have made a more concrete feeling of unity. At the outset we accepted humility together. A degree of class spirit arose out of Fresh Customs and the Tribunal Threat. This was climaxed by the fun of lighting and cheering '42 to victory over a bedraggled and Tiger-submerged '41 in the Frosh-Soph Fight. Our Sophomore year we had the fun first and the humility later. But even in the mud 0f the Tiber we recaptured class snirit as we went down fighting. And this year our functions take on the respectability befitting Juniors. We present to the College a social highlight in the Prom and a Publication reHecting the year's campus life. And we are making sizeable contributions to that campus life. Sit in the football stands or join the crowds on the baseball and basketball bleachers; ob- serve the Gettysburgian masthead and study a picture of the choir; take in the plays or note the dancers in the gym; and read the Deanls Honor List-in every phase of the college's activity ,42 is substantially rep- resented contributing leaders. Of this welre proud. Into the whole of our class have gone widely diver- gent personalities. We have our natural leaders. We have our unsung workers tirelessly preparing for the future. We have our brilliant characters, our come- dians, t'playboysll and glamour girls, and our mass of good fellows. All taken together we make a com- plete class offering for each of us contacts with almost every imaginable type of youth. 50 Gettysburg College has thrown together various backgrounds, personalities, abilities, and ambitions, and lumped them all as the Clans of '42 to be educated together. And a broad education it is . Gettysburg College is stamping us all with its impact. We can well view our classmates and the influence of the class as a large part of that impact. CARL E.

No longer must we wear that beaten and de- pressed look on our faces. No longer must we fear an infringement of the customs. Now we can become an integral part in the scope of col- lege life as we had planned. As we look at the past, in reality only two short years, we see ourselves as an assorted group of high school men and women assembled together for the first time as a class. The Class of 1943! We elected officers, and were surprised by the politics; we were rushed by fraternities and sorori- ties, and were amazed by the friendliness and hos- pitality. In all, we were intrigued by the new life -the freedom of being uon our own without the ever-present guiding hand of our families. It was our chance to look out for ourselves, and advance on our own merit. However, being a Sophomore is more than just freeing ourselves of customs and the lowliness of the Fresh? We are entering into the real activi- ties of college life. We have, in the strictest sense of the word, graduated. It is in this year that our athletes really hit their stride and form a consid- erable support on the varsity teams, forming the nucleus for future great teams. In the classroom, in the literary fields, and in activities, we are find- ing our place. In all fields, in fact, the Sopho- mores are surging to the front with the knowledge that they are doing things. We have also, for the most part, definitely made our final choice as to the mode of work that we wish to pursue for a future in the world. With this goal in mind, we are able to set a definite course of study-applying ourselves to the best of our ability to place a better equipped man or woman into the working world of tomorrow. We have gained the title of iiSoph-isticates because of the time-worn idea of the high and mighty second year class. In some few ways, this term is correctly applied, as we are often blind to the fact that there are a great many people on the campus who know more than we do. As we stride forward to gain prestige and honor, we must realize that true learning comes from ob- serving others, and it is our ideal to correct our- selves by perceiving the faults of others. In this second year of college life, more than any other time, we can adjust our shortcomings and enlarge our perspective. Two full years lie behind us. Two years filled with memories which we will never forget, nor admonish ourselves for their happening. Now, with our eyes to the future and our hearts filled with expectation of things to come, we bid good- bye to our Sophomore year and hail the next. CLASS HONORS FRESHMAN YEAR Highest Class Honors W.

From all walks of life we came, lured by the romance of col- lege. And not one among our number but stood in awe of the institution and of the possibilities for which it stood. As we pooled our insignificant little brooks on September 16, 1940, we became suddenly transformed into a mighty, rush- ing torrent. And we passed our first mile- stoneellCLASS OF 44, THIS WAY,l eand the sign pointed straight ahead. Rushing, a fall fever to which none of our members was immune, seized us. Many were pledged, by either fraternity or soror- ity, but we were still the Class of 44, and our destination was still straight ahead. Then came customs, and the terrors of Tribunal. Of all the inventions for terri- fying and tormenting the hapless fresh- man, Tribunal stands head and shoulders over the rest. As the weeks passed and football victories gave us occasional vaca- tions, we longed for the dim future when we would be able to cast off our chains. Long had we heard of mid-semesters, and the bull session descriptions were not exaggerated. The midnight oil was con- sumed by the gallon as we attempted to evade the Dean,s list of deficiencies. Some of us missed it and some of us didn,t- but none was flattered by his attention. The fall dances-how welcome they were! Gone was the domination of the sophomore class, the drudgery of customs, the fear of Tribunal. Gone was the toil of the textbook, the cold reality of Tlseven I601 forty-five, the monotony of Labs; all gone on the sweet wings of Johnny Long and his band. Happy Frosh-Soph fight day! Here at last was our chance. Our noble first-year men turned out to the man; every man eager to clinch with the handful of sopho- mores who dared to appear. The battle was short-but sweet, and the sweetest sound was the musical splash made by each sophomore as he was dunked in the Tiber. It was another victory for the Fresh. With startling swiftness the Christmas holidays were upon uSethen, if ever, came perfect days. As December 14 dawned, we thankfully shook the dust of the cam- pus from our feet, but January 3 found us returning to G-Burg with just as much joy. It was our first prolonged absence from our college, but already the ties of Orange and Blue were binding us. All too soon semester examinations were at hand. Sleep was at a premiumesome- thing we had heard of, but which we never seemed to find time for. Semester vacation soon followed to soothe our worn and weary brain. Customs were offeTribunal was ended -but the life of the freshman was still sprinkled with indignity. Hell Week! Cus- toms had never been like this! Midnight trips, kotows before Glatfelter, announce- ment of the correct time in class-these were the agonizing stepping stones to our goaleInitiation. How rough is the road to the sophomore class! But the road is paved with memo- ries of the Class of ,44. Next year we shall be the oppressors to the next class of green- ies-and what memories they will have!

The tripping pirouetters of 1940 portrayed the four seasons of the year, representing by the spirit of the dance and costume colors, summer, autumn. winter, and spring. About their interpretation was woven the theme of the event, HThe Four Seasons. Then, too, there are those who are convinced of the politics of beauty. Nevertheless the lovely queen of '40 could hardly have missed the nod of approval of all, politicians or otherwise. Jean Strunk, chosen by her sister coeds as the cream of the VV.

Levens INTER-FRATERNITY COUNCIL Founded in 1916 as a local organization consisting of representatives from each of the national fraternities on the campus, the Interfraternity Council of Gettysburg College endeavors to solve the problems which are common to the national fraternities and to promote harmony and good-will among these fraternities. Each of the fraterni- ties maintains one senior and one junior as representatives on the council. At the beginning of each year the council figures prominently in the adoption and regulation of the system to be used for rushing and pledging new students. Through such control it is expected that the new student, unaccustomed to the ways of college. shall be more free to make his choice of the fraternities, and the fraternities themselves may be more fair to each other. Through common interests and ideals, the lnterfraternity Council endeavors to draw the ten national fraternities closer together. Each year the council holds two outstanding college dances, the fall Pan-Hellenie and the spring Pan-Hellenic. In addition, the council awards a cup each year to the fraternity having the highest scholas- tic average for the year, and also a cup to that fraternity having the highest total of extra-curricular activity points. Trophies are also awarded to the winning teams in interfraternity basketball, football, mushball, and swimming activities sponsored by the council. The rating of activities by a point system is likewise under the direction of this society. During the past year the council has been very active and has not only revised its constitution but also the system of rating the fraternities by the activity point system. The council also adopted a plan whereby an Alumni Advisory Committee will be formed which will work with the Council, serving in an advisory capacity, aiding in plans and problems brought before the body. lllembers 0f the lnterfraternity Council are as follows: Phi Kappa Psi, Kent Gil- bert and Edward Todd; Phi Gamma Delta, William lVIuhlenberg and Roger Smith; Sigma Chi, George Reneker and John Jones; Phi Delta Theta, lVIartin Levens and Clarence Rowland; Alpha Tau Omega, William Ditzler and Thomas Cannavo: Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Bosley lVIanges and hIerle Showalter; Phi Sigma Kappa, Calvin Trunk and Ralph Cox; Tau Kappa Epsilon, Edward Blassoth and John Blunnell; Kappa Delta Rho, Robert Fahrer and Edward hladdock; and Lambda Chi Alpha, Robert Rhoads and Carl Fisher. '881 Organized at Gettysburg in the spring of 1940, the Pan-Hellenic Council aims to promote friendly relationships and solve problems existing between the two national sororities 0n the campus, Chi Omega and Delta Gamma. The local Pan-Hellenic Council is a member of the National Pan-Hellenic Con- gress. Three active members and one alumna of each sorority compose the coed Greek council. The presidency of the group alternates annually between the senior repre- sentative of each sorority. One of the first duties which the council fulfilled this year was to govern the rush- ing activities of the two sororities. Rules, formulated by the council, governed the length of the rushing period. the number of rush functions permitted each group, the length of the hsilent hours, and also the actual pledging 0f the freshmen. The council also sponsors joint meetings of the two sororities in order to acquaint each group with the other,s style of organization. In this way, ideas are exchanged and relationships are improved between the two groups. At present the council is considering the adoption of a deferred rushing plan for the two sororities. If such a plan were inaugurated, rushing would be postponed until at least six weeks after the opening of school, thus giving the sororities, as well as the freshmeIL an opportunity to be more certain of their choice. Lucille Smyser. a representative of the Chi Omega group, was president of the Pan-Hellenie Council this past year, while the other Chi O delegates were hr'Iary Lou Rice and Betty J. Hite. Frances l Koenig. the senior Delta Gamma member, served as viee-president; Nellie BI. Klanges, a junior Delta Gam, was secretary; and Helen E. hIondorf. a sophomore, completed the active membership of the group. NIiss N. Louise Ramer was the Chi Omega alumna representative, while hIrs. Lester 0. John- son was the delegate from the Delta Gamma alumnae group. PAN- HELLENIC COUNCIL Koenig.

At the time of the founding there was an outbreak of typhoid fever among the stu- dents of the institution, and the founders con- ceived the idea of the fraternity while administer- ing aid to their unfortunate classmates. The Pennsylvania Epsilon chapter of the fra- ternity was installed at Gettysburg College on December 26, 1855, the first national fraternity to be established on this campus. The local chap- ter was eighth in the order of establishment, and is at the present time the sixth oldest chapter of the fraternity. From 1884 to 1886, the Epsilon Chapter served as the grand chapter of the na- tional fraternity, and the local oHicers were also the officers of the national organization. In 1886 this system was discontinued, and separate national officers have been elected since then. In 1881 the active brothers conceived the idea of building a house somewhere close to the cam- pus that would serve as a meeting and gathering place for the chapter members. Accordingly plans were begun, and with the cooperation of all the active brothers and the alumni, funds were ob- tained to build the house at a site selected beside the President,s home. In 1883 the house was ded- icated and was named Miller Hall in honor of Brother D. R. Miller, ,56, who had worked un- ceasingly to secure the erection of the house. Mil- I901 ler Hall has the distinction of being the oldest chapter house in the Phi Kappa Psi fraternity, the first fraternity house in Pennsylvania, and is be- lieved by many authorities to be the oldest house in the United States that has been used exclu- sively since its construction for fraternity gather- ing purposes. The present Phi Psi house was erected just north of Glatfelter Hall in 1924 at a cost of $15,000. In the fall of 1939 a sun porch and a powder room for feminine guests were added to the structure. Regular fraternity meetings and initiations are still held in Miller Hall, however. Phi Psi is represented by prominent brothers in most of the campus activities, with good balance being maintained between athletics and other ex- tra-curricular work. Phi Psi also plays an important part in inter- fraternity athletics. Last year, with a champion- ship basketball five and second or third place teams in all the other divisions, the house won the all-sports trophy which is awarded to the house outstanding in interfraternity athletics. This sea- son, the Epsilon men have captured first place in swimming and third in basketball. During the year the fraternity publishes a small newspaper, The Torch? which contains news of chapter and alumni activities. Phi Psi is repre- sented on the college faculty by Dr. George R. Miller, Prof. Charles R. Wolfe, and Lieut. John C. Hollinger. PHI KAPPA PSI MEMBERS SENIORS WILLIAM A. Box'snx ALFRED S. IIILI. PAH. II. BRA'I'TICN DONALD J. KAISER HENRY M. BURMAN CHAS. Q.

SPINOZZI PHI GAMMA DELTA Phi Gamma Delta, the oldest of the existing fraternities to be founded in Pennsylvania and the oldest fraternity nationally of the groups repre- sented at Gettysburg College, was founded on Apri1 22, 1848, at Jefferson College at Cannons- burg, Pennsylvania. Xi chapter, fourteenth on the roll of the general fraternity, was founded at Pennsylvania College on March 31. 1858. Despite serious interference with its normal course of life because of the Civil War, the chapter Hourished largely by reason of the deep interest of the local resident graduates. This was, in spite of depleted numbers, due to a very creditable representation in the army. Before 1865 the chapter meetings were held in the rooms of members who resided either in the uollege building or in buildings in the town. In 1865, however, a hall was rented and furnished with the financial assistance of graduate members. This hall was retained for about three years. after which the meetings were again held in the college or private residences. In 1876 a hall was again secured on the top Hoot of the building on the southwest corner of Carlisle and Water streets, which was occupied until 1890, when the chapter moved into the old landmark lodge on the campus directly south of the Phi Kappa Psi Lodge. This 1921 lodge had the distinction of being the second house to be acquired by any Phi Gamma Delta chapter. In 1927 the lodge was demolished to make way for the erection of the present splendid house, which was built at a cost of $25,000. One of the two fraternities on the campus to have a house mother, the Phi Cams have as their regular 1'resident hostess Mrs. Alma L. Barnell, formerly of Uniontown. In preparation for her arrival, a three-room addition was added to the first floor of the house last year. Two social functions are outstanding on the Fijiis school calendar. As part of the Christmas house-party week-end, the boys entertain the fac- ulty wives along with their guests at a tea dance. Several months later, in connection with their an- nual initiation ceremony, the fellowship spotlight focuses on the 11pig dinner when the newly- inducted brothers are welcomed by the return of interested alumni. This past year, the entire first Hoot of the home was filled with heavily-loaded tables in order to accommodate the 100 guests who were present for the dinner. Four times a year the house issues its publica- tion, The Fiji Bullet. Dr. Thomas L. Cline, Dr. Charles H. Huber, and Coach Henry T. Bream represent Phi Gamma Delta on the college fac- u1ty.

GIBERSON d?FA The Sigma Chi fraternity, one of the itMiami Triad? was founded June 28, 1855, at Miami University. When the Theta chapter was installed at Gettysburg on April 3, 1863, it was the thir- teenth of the fraternity and the fourth in Penn- sylvania. From the date of its founding until 1891, the chapter occupied various rooms in Gettysburgk business district. On June 17, 1891, the brothers moved to their new house, Glatfelter Lodge, which had just been erected on the campus at a cost of $5,000. The lodge was named in honor of W. L. Glatfelter, whose generosity made the building possible. Glatfelter Lodge, still owned by the Theta chapter, is rented as a residence to Prof. Donald R. Heiges of the college faculty. The lodge was occupied for thirty-one years until the Cornelia W. McPherson Memorial House on Carlisle Street was dedicated on June 13, 1922. This house, a gift of John B. McPher- son in memory of his wife, is still the home of the chapter. ' To Theta Chapter was entrusted the publica- tion, in 1881, of the first numbers of The Sigma Chi, a bi-monthly magazine which eventually be- came the national organ of the fraternity. Charles R. Trowbridge, ,82, and William L. McPherson, 183, were the first editors of the magazine, and their editorial work was done in an ofhce on the T941 x1 2-! X second Hoot of Old Dorm. The publication has a wide circu1ation, being distributed in the ninety- seven active chapters of the fraternity. On the Gettysburg campus, brothers of Sigma Chi represent their fraternity in almost every ac- tivity, and at the same time maintain a high schol- astic average. In the first semester of the current school term Sigma Chi attained the scholarship rank of second among the men,s national frater- nities. This was an increase of two places over the mark made the previous year. Nor is Sigma Chi taking a back seat in other interfraternity activities. After two weeks of real work last fall, the boys erected their large theater marquee in the gym as their entry in the frater- nity display competition held before the Dickin- son game. When the judges had fmished inspect- ing the various fraternities, creations, the dipper award for the best display was unanimously given to the iiSigma Chi Theatre? One of the highlights of the year in the house activities is the annual ping-pong tournament, al- ways a close race among several of the Sigma Chi paddle wingers. Itis not unusual, upon entering the house, to hear loud cheers coming from the general direction of the game room. A little in- vestigation shows that a hot contest is being waged between two of the houseis Champion players and each has his own special cheering section out to lend noise and color to the battle.

VVENTZ Founded at Miami University, Oxford, Ohio, on December 26, 1848, Phi Delta Theta was the second fraternity of the RMiami Triad? At Penn- sylvania College during the year 1874-75 there were several students who did not care to accept invitations which they had received to join exist- ing fraternities but who were rather desirous of establishing a chapter of another fraternity. Ac- cordingly, after advice from a seminarian, six stu- dents consulted Alpha chapter at Lafayette Col- lege about establishing a chapter at Gettysburg. The charter members, J C. Jacoby, ,76; O. H. Melcher, 76; S. E. Smith, ,76; C. J. Reddig, 77; Albert Bell, 78; and H. M. Lentz, ,78, were ini- tiated into the fraternity on May 5, 1875. On November 1, of the same year, the charter for Pennsylvania Beta of Phi Delta Theta was re- ceived in Gettysburg. At first no definite headquarters were main- tained, but after a time rooms were secured and occupied, at one time on Center Square and at another over the People,s Drug Store on Balti- more Street. In 1899, the chapter erected a lodge on the campus, immediately south of the Phi Gamma Delta house. This lodge was sold in 1923 to the Theta Kappa Nu fraternity when the Beta boys acquired the present large house on the north- west corner of Washington Street and Lincoln Avenue. PHI DELTA THETA I961 This structure has been enlarged and remod- eled several times and represents an investment of close to $30,000. The latest addition to the house was made this past summer, when a pow- der room for feminine guests, a living room, and several study rooms were included in a new wing which was added at the rear of the house. Phi Delta Theta is well represented in the cam- pus extra-curricular activities and has an especially large group of brothers participating in athletics. In every major sport there can be found several Phi Delt teammates, and in the minor sports the house also has an excellent representation. A strong interfraternity spirit is also maintained at the Delts, house, with the result that Phi Delt sports teams are usually on top or close to it in the interfraternity athletic circuit. For the second consecutive year, the Beta men won the touch football cup last fall, while they placed second in the basketball race and third in volleyball. Last spring they topped the other Creeks in the mush- ball loop and will probably make a strong bid for the cup again this spring. Each year the fraternity publishes a magazine, The Karux, which gives news of chapter and alumni activities. Prof. Earl E. Ziegler and Prof. John N. B. Livingood represent Phi Delta Theta on the college faculty. Strand Row: Third Row: LAY L. BAILEY AUGUST P. CIELL THOMAS F. CONWAY JACK W. DAVIS Front Row: Alsedek, Colby, Bishop Trimble.

It was the first fraternity to be founded after the Civil War, and also the first national fraternity to provide for a definite form of cen- tral government. The Alpha, or mother chap- ter,,, was located at the Virginia Military Insti- tute at Lexington, Virginia, and the Beta, the second chapter, at Washington and Lee Univer- sity, also in Lexington. The hrst twenty chapters of the fraternity were established in the South. In 1881, the first Northern chapter of the fra- ternity was Chartered at the University of Penn- sylvania. Alpha Tau Omega was the first frater- nity of Southern origin that was successful in maintaining chapters in the North. Immediately a rapid expansion of the Alpha Tau Omega fra- ternity took place, with hfteen new chapters be- tween the years of 1881 and 1882. Alpha Upsilon chapter of Alpha Tau Omega was founded at Gettysburg College on June 27, 1882. Dr. N. Wiley Thomas was responsible for this movement and was also instrumental in the initiation of Charles W. Baker, an acclaimed campus leader in Gettysburg college at that time. The first meeting place of the fraternity was in the second story of a frame structure on the town E981 ATS! square. This building burned and a chapter house was built on the site of the present building. A second fire, however, destroyed the chapter house, and in 1913 the present brick building was erected. Today the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity em- braces ninety-three chapters, stretching from shore to shore, bringing into the brotherhood over 37,000 members. The badge of the fraternity, frequently described as following the form of the Maltese Cross, was devised by one of the founders of the fraternity, Otis Allan Glazebrook, and has never been altered. The oHicial colors of the fraternity are sky-blue and gold, which were adopted by a congress held in Nashville in 1892. Listed among the publications of the fraternity is the national magazine, The Palm of Alpha Tau Omega, and the local newspaper, The Battlefield Guzde 01C Alpha Upsilon chapter of Alpha Tau Omega. Faculty members of the college who are broth- ers of Alpha Tau Omega include Dr. J. B. Zinn, Dr. R. B. Fortenbaugh, and Prof. C. E. Bilheimer, while George H. Hummel, recently elected secre- tary of the Board of Trustees of the college, is also listed among the alumni of the fraternity. Alpha Tau Omega fraternity is represented in all phases of Gettysburg College life by active mem- bers and alumni of the Alpha Upsilon chapter.

T991 SIGMA ALPHA EPSILON After several unsuccessful attempts, a chapter of the Sigma Alpha Epsilon national fraternity was founded at Gettysburg College in 1883. With the establishment of Pennsylvania Delta chapter of the fraternity goes the significance of being the Hrst chapter of SAE to be organized north of the Mason and Dixon Line. Four boys, H. B. Kline, R. R. Line, Frank Warren, and J. Foust, were ini- tiated by the Grand Chapter and soon set up chap- ter rooms in a building located in the uptown sec- tion of Gettysburg. Later a house on Springs Avenue was purchased and used until the organi- zation moved to its present location on Lincoln Avenue in 1924. The SAE fraternity is the largest Greek letter fraternity in the world, having a greater number of houses in every state in the country, excluding four, than any other fraternity. The organization is also unique in that it has a national temple lo- cated just off the Northwestern College campus at Evanston, Illinois. Levere Memorial Temple, as the shrine is called, has fostered the idea of sponsoring a leadership school. Each summer ac- tive members from each chapter are sent to this beautiful shrine to be schooled in different phases of fraternity life. Through this medium leader- ship and character building, as well as the frater- nity ideals, are emphasized. K1001 QiStudy and Excel? the brothers of the frater- nity say, deriving the motto by the use of words which begin with the letters, SAE. Today the fraternity carries out its aims to the best of its abilities. When Dean Tilberg announced the schol- astic averages for the first semester, the SAEis had captured hfth place among the menTs national fraternities. This was three rungs higher on the scholastic ladder than they had been the previous year. The Lincoln Avenue boys also have repre- sentatives in every campus activity. Although they are strong in activities, they have a balanced rep resentation and do not place special emphasis on any particular extra-curricular field. Two of the SAE brothers, Ceotge Good and Don Holtzman, own part interest in an airplane and are complet- ing the Hying requirements for pilots licenses. Since they acquired their present chapter house in 1924, several improvements have been made on the structure. The dining room has been enlarged and an upstairs powder room was installed for the convenience of feminine guests. The large cupola on the left front of the house makes it one of the distinctive fraternity homes on the campus. Prof. C. Gilbert Reen and Prof. Lester 0. John- son represent SAE on the college faculty in the physics and education departments, respectively. Fm! Run: Good. Wlilson Byers. Dickensheets. Manges. Simon, Love. Srmml Raw: Hart, Showalter.

Ym'mslx EAE Phi Sigma Kappa, which was founded as a local fraternity at Massachusetts State College at Amherst in 1873, arose from a rather in- auspicious beginning to a national fraternity during those years before the turn of the cen- tury, when a college fraternity faced a large amount of disfavor and prejudice on the part of the general public. Today, however, Phi Sigma Kappa has come to be one of the sound- est and highest ranking of national social fra- ternities. The Druids, a local fraternity on the cam- pus of Gettysburg College since 1897, in seek- ing a national charter, found in 1925 that Phi Sigma Kappafs standards of scholarship, high ideals, and comradeship most nearly coincided with its own, as a local fraternity. Consequent- ly, Gettysburg College in that year became one of the few small colleges with chapters of Phi Sigma Kappas on their campuses, when the Druids were granted a charter and were in- stalled as the Rho Deuteron chapter of Phi Sigma Kappa. Since its installation Rho Deuteron has had C1021 the distinction of winning, every year, the first- place interfraternity scholastic cup. Scholastic attainments alone, however, have been neither the chaptefs sole aim nor its sole achievement, as is evidenced by the prominent showing its members have continued to make in extra-cur- ricular and social activities on the Gettysburg College campus. Ofiiciai publication of the local fraternity chapter is The Oak Leaf of Rho Deuteron, which is the oldest of the campus publications since it dates from the period when the frater- nity was known as the Druids. The publication is printed in magazine form. Phi Sigma Kappa fraternity is well repre- sented in the Gettysburg College faculty by prof. C. p. Cessna, Prof. D. R. Heiges, Dr. F. H. Kramer, and Dr. W. C. Waltemyer, all of whom are loyal alumni of the local chapter. Nationally the fraternity has 16,500 mem- bers, forming the forty-four national chapters which compose a brotherhood famous among the colleges of the United States, the brother- hood of Phi Sigma Kappa.

Mayer, and C. Roy Atkinson, students at Illinois Wes- leyan University, met and organized the Knights of Classic Loref A short time later the name was changed to Tau Kappa Epsilon, and the first chapter house on the Illinois Wesleyan campus was rented and occupied. Beta chapter was in- stalled at James Millikin University at Decatur, Illinois, on April 17, 1909. Gamma chapter was installed at the University of Illinois on February 3, 1912. Tau Kappa Epsilon continued to grow until today it consists of forty-three active chap- ters. At Gettysburg College, in the fall of 1916, David E. Maxwell, 217; John Bennett, ,17; and G. Elmer Bookholtz, 917, founded Delta Kappa Sigma fraternity for social, moral, and intellectual benefits. Shortly thereafter the fraternity was for- mally reorganized by the college faculty, a house was secured, and the activities were begun. In the following year, because of the general confusion caused by the Civil War, the fraternity was dis- banded. It was not until 1920 that the Tau Kappa Ep- silon fraternity was reorganized with its headquars ters in the Star and Sentinel building. The fol- lowing year the present house on Broadway was purchased. In the spring of 1926 the Grand Council of Tau Kappa Epsilon granted a charter to Delta Kappa Sigma, and it was installed as Psi chapter by the Grand Officers on November 23, 24, and 25 of that year. Today there are forty-three chapters of the fra- ternity, with the majority in the Middle West. In these chapters there are a total of 9,000 brothers enrolled. Colors of the fraternity are cherry and grey, while the official flower and jewel of Tau Kappa Epsilon are the red carnation and the pearl, respectively. Alumni of the Psi chapter of Tau Kappa Ep- silon hold important positions on the Gettysburg College faculty. Prof. W. F. Shaffer, Dr. R. A. Arms, Dr. A. B. Bachman, Dr. J. G. Glenn, Dr. F. C. Mason, Dr. W. K. Sundermeyer, and Dr. P. D. Altland are all members of Tau Kappa Epsilon. Psi Press is a newspaper published twice yearly by the local chapter, while the national oHice is- sues a magazine, The Take, to the chapters of Tau Kappa Epsilon, four times each year. Tau Kappa Epsilon,s chief objective is scholarship, and we find the spirit of the fraternity reflected in the fraternity motto, 0Love and Esteem? l104l kaRg: ' . me Raw: Keller. Flinchbaugh.

Kimball, John Beecher, and Irving T. Coates. The group which formed the frater- nity had broken away from a Commons Club on the campus, when the congeniality of the oversized club was lost. For eight years it remained a local unit, until on May 24, 1913, the Beta chapter was installed at Cornell University. This was the beginning of a careful and conservative expansion to the present eighteen chapters extending from Colby College to the University of California. Pi chapter of Kappa Delta Rho, the organ of the fraternity on the Gettysburg College campus, first took form in the fall of the year 1909, when eight students from Pennsylvania College banded themselves together into a local fraternal organi- zation which the men called the Theta Phi fra- ternity. For more than a year Theta Phi strug- gled to receive official recognition on the campus, and finally after several years gained from the college administration the right to exist under its declared status. The chapter grew rapidly in size and several times moved into larger accommoda- tions, until finally it purchased the old Sigma Chi Ilo6l house, which still stands on the campus. It was on January 14, 1928, that the local chapter was installed as Pi chapter of the Kappa Delta Rho national fraternity. At the same time that the chapter was becoming nationalized, it purchased the present chapter house, which had been the home of Dr. Parsons, professor of physics at the college. Kappa Delta Rho is represented on the college faculty by Dr. C. A. Sloat, who is associate pro- fessor of chemistry. Dr. Sloat is the treasurer of the Alumni Association of the local chapter. The oH'icial fraternity colors of Kappa Delta Rho are Princeton orange and Middlebury blue, which are also the official colors of Gettysburg College. The Quill and Scroll, the magazine pub- lished by the National Chapter, is distributed among the active and alumni members quarterly. The Pi Post is the local magazine which the chap- ter publishes each year immediately after Easter. From its founding in 1905, Kappa Delta Rho has grown to the extent of eighteen chapters, spreading from Maine to California; from the original ten members it has grown to 4,200. Typ- ical of the fraternitfs spirit is the motto of Kap- pa Delta Rho, Honor Above All Things?

I1071 LAMBDA CHI ALPHA Lambda Chi Alpha is a comparatively new fra- ternity name on the Gettysburg campus, having made its appearance here two years ago, in the fall of 139, when it replaced the former Theta Kappa Nu fraternity. This replacement came as a result of a national merger of the two fraterni- ties, which made Lambda Chi Alpha the third largest national Greek social organization. The former Theta Kappa Nu chapter, which gave way to Lambda Chi Alpha in turn, had its origin in a local fraternity which was known as Phi Sigma. This local group was organized on the campus in 1918 by a group of students re- siding on the second floor of Old Dorm. Mem- bers of Phi Sigma soon became interested in join- ing a national organization, and after correspond- ence with the local fraternities at other schools followed by several sub2equent conferences, the national fraternity of Theta Kappa Nu was or- ganized at Drury College, Springfield, Missouri, on June 9, 1924. Phi Sigma was one of the eleven original chapters of Theta Kappa Nu and carried the designation of the Pennsylvania Alpha chap- ter. From 1918 until 1923 the Phi Sigs occupied several rooms in Cettysburgk business district. In the latter year the Phi Delta Theta lodge was purchased and was occupied until 1930, when the chapter moved again to a house on Carlisle street. llOSJ Finally, in 1935, because of ever-increasing num- bers, the Theta Nu boys moved to their present location on Broadway. At the time of the merger with Lambda Chi Alpha, Theta Kappa Nu was represented on the campuses of forty-three colleges in twenty-eight states. To Lambda Chi Alpha goes the distinction of being the first fraternity on the Gettysburg cam- pus to have a house mother who acts as the offl- cial hostess. The Lambda ChiTs obtained a house mother when the merger was culminated in the fall of ,39. Mrs. Mildred F. Evans, of Grove City, is the present hostess of the Broadway group. Members of the Lambda Chi group are active in the various campus activities, claiming member- ship in almost every extra-curricular organization. The Lambda Chi,s also keep Ron the ball with their various house athletic teams. Last fall, in the touch football division, they kept the leaders on their toes and garnered a third place in the league. They also placed seventh in volleyball and hfth in the basketball loop. Dr. Karl J Grimm, professor emeritus of Ger- man; Prof. George F. Gutmann, assistant profes- sor of German, and Prof. Dunning Idle, assistant professor of history, are all Lambda Chi Alpha members of the college faculty. Kawnul Raw: Fran!

On Oc- tober 9, 1923, in room 417 of Old Dorm, a group of undergraduates met to discuss the organization of a new social organization. The members of the group were then boarding together and desired a closer bond of fellowship. The name chosen was the RCriterion Club of Gettysburg College. The adoption of a ritual and the addition of other necessary features followed in due order. It was in the year 1928 that the club merged with the Star Club, which had been formed in 1876. At the same time it voted to adopt the Greek letters Phi Kappa Rho as its name, and to make adjustments so that the society might be eligible to become a local fraternity. Formal an- nouncement of the change of status was made on November 9, 1928. At first the meeting-place of the club was lo- cated in two rented rooms in what is today the Star and SentinePT Building on Baltimore Street, later on a house on Washington Street was ob- tained, and from the spring of 1935 until 1935 the fraternity rented a house on Stevens Street. I110! Today the chapter house is located on Broadway. In the spring of 1929 the publication of an an- nual booklet, the Rho-ll, was started. The maga- zine was intended for annual publication and con- tained items of interest to actives and alumni. Soon afterwards, however, the name of the magazine was changed to the Phi Kapk Bullet, also to be published annually, containing plans, activities, and accomplishments of the members of the active chapter. Each year the group enters into the college intramural activities, and last year captured first place in the three activities: softball, basketball, and football. Thus far this year the fraternity has taken first place in the football intramural league. Prof. Robert B. Armstrong, Prof. George R. Larkin, and Prof. John H. Knickerbocker, mem- bers of the Gettysburg College faculty, are all alumni brothers of the Phi Kappa Rho fraternity. Especially proud is the fraternity of its collection of classical music, which embraces the masters of the world in this field, and which is one of the finest collections on the college campus.

Sipeux IlllJ From October, 1923, until January, 1937, the Tau Delta chapter of Chi Omega, national women,s fraternity, was in existence on the Gettysburg College campus as the Gamma Phi local sorority. The group, with fourteen char- ter members, was established in order to further promote such ideals as friendship, character, scholarship, leadership, and loyalty. With the reinstitution of co-education at Gettysburg in 1936, an enthusiastic group of women reorgan- ized and began work toward higher goals, and in 1937, Gamma Phi chapter was formally in- ducted into Chi Omega, which is a nationally outstanding women,s fraternity. Chi Omega had its origin at the State Uni- versity of Arkansas in 1895, and it claims the distinction of being the first Greek letter fra- ternity for women founded with the idea of being national. It boasts ninety-six chapters, sixty-nine alumnae chapters, and a total mem- bership exceeding 26,000. Its aims are to en- courage such worthwhile policies as personality development, credible scholarship, participation in campus activities of all types, cooperation IllZl CHI OMEGA with the college authorities and fellow students, wise choice of vocations, participation in civic and social service, discretion in social life, and good manners and sportsmanshp in dealing with other organizations. Each year the frater- nity sponsors the awarding of a gold medal to a woman who has done meritorious work in her held. Each spring Tau Delta publishes The Clai- Ote, a magazine for actives and alumnae, te- viewing the highlights of the year,s activities. The national publication is The Eleusis, which is published quarterly. The book contains many articles on issues of current interest, as well as news of sisters all over the United States. This Year Chi Omega sponsored the publica- tion of its fourth service study, RDemocracy Through Public Opinion, by Dr. Lasswell. The former studies include uHuman Conduct and the Law,,, nChapter House Management? and QtWlomen and the Wealth? Under its colors, cardinal and straw, and its Hower, the white carnation, Tau Delta looks forward to a bright future. Fin! Raw: Van Wagner, Burg, Keefer, Michel, Hervey.

WOLF ELEANOR ZIMMERMAN X52 Beta Lambda chapter of Delta Gamma national women,s fraternity was first organized on the Gettysburg College campus as a local sorority, called the Beta Lambda sorority, in November, 1916, with Eve charter members, namely, Edith Watson, ,17; Marie Bentz, 317; Louise Sheads, 117; Minerva Taughinbaugh, ,17; and Ethel Bare, ,19. Mrs. W. A. Granville, Mrs. D. P. McPher- son, Mrs. Elsie Singmaster Lewars, and Mrs. S. F. Snyder were honorary members. The purposes and aims of the organization, as they appear in the early records, are W0 set a high standard of womanhood and to uphold the traditions of QOld Gettysburg? It was on October 9, 1939, that the local soror- ity went nationali1 and became associated with the Delta Gamma national women,s fraternity, which organization has a total membership of ap- proximately 18,000 members in fifty-four chapters throughout the United States. The first headquarters for the organization were on Baltimore Street, and in 1923 the first rooms were fitted out in the Kalbfleisch Apart- ments. From 1927 until 1931, the parish house 11141 A F of the Episcopal Church was rented by the chap- ter, while during the years 1931 and 1932 a meet- ing room was maintained on Carlisie Street. Between the years 1932 and 1935 co-education was discontinued at Gettysburg College, but in the fall of 1935 the Academy was transformed into the Women,s Division and once more the Beta Lambdas organized. At present the meeting- room is located in the main dormitory, which meeting-room is the center of activity for an en- ergetic group of college women. It was in 1921 that, as a local fraternity, the organization first published an annual magazine, for some years known as The Baby Lamb. Since nationalization the fraternity has published no local paper, but has depended on the national Delta Gamma fraternity magazine, Anchora. Sisters of Delta Gamma wear the bronze, pink, and blue, and are especially proud of their scholas- tic achievements. Since its installation as a na- tional fraternity the group has continued to pro- gress, ever striving to uphold the principles of the fraternity and the ideals of Gettysburg Col- lege.

Bratten MEN'S STUDENT COUNCIL The menls government of Gettysburg College is led by a Student Council composed of four seniors, three juniors, and two sophomores who are elected by the men of the student body in April, and one freshman member, elected in October. The purpose of the council is to bring about a closer relationship between the administration and the student body, and to carry on policies Which uphold the name of Gettysburg College. Duties of the council are the general supervision of student life, the enforcement of class constitu- tions, instigation of class elections, the appoint- ment of cheerleaders, and the trying of all cases of impeachment of its members, as well as cases concerned with the damage to college property and violation of the three well-known college laws of uno cheating, no drinking, no immoral- ity? The council may investigate all accounts and finances of any campus organization upon demand and may also try all cases of stealing on the campus. Consultation with the faculty and administration in all cases of student discipline is one of the privileges of the council. lllSl Election to the BIenys Tribunal. which states and enforces men's freshmen customs, is done by the Student Council. No member of the council is eligible for membership on the Tribunal. which consists of one member from each fraternity and one non-fraternity man. Each member elected to the council serves a term of two years and no one fraternity may be represented by more than two members. The initiation of new members is held in KIay, after which the officers of the council are immediately elected and installed. Council meetings, which are formal, are held Klonday evening at 10:00 olclock in the meeting room in XVeidensall Hall. Once a month the Menls Student Council meets with the oHicers 0f the Women's Student Conn- eil to discuss problems which concern the entire student body. OHicers of the Student Council are Alvin jones, president; Paul VV. Trimmer, Vice-presi- dent; 31erle J. Showalter, corresponding secre- tary; Clarence W. Rowland, recording secre- tary; and James G. Dickensheets, treasurer. Other members are Paul H. Bratten, Jarvis K. Shaffer, Edward T. Addison, VVilliam C. Ever- hart, and James H. Fresh. Smyser, Logan, Clift, Hemminget Lund. Manges, Koenig Rice. Fish, Hartzell Amspacher WOMEN'S STUDENT COUNCIL With the thoughts that self-govemment devel- ops individual and community responsibility, in- creases interest in student organizations, and strengthens personal contact between the students and the administration, the Women's Student Government was organized. The purpose of the organization is to enact and enforce rules agreed on by thcials and stu- dents and to carry on general business. The ex- ecutive power is in the hands of the VVomelfs Student Council, which meets every llonday evening at 10:30 dclock. R'Iembers 0f the coun- cil are a president, vice-presidentt and secretary- treasurer elected in BIarch from the incoming senior. junior. and sophomore classes, respective- ly; the two house presidents, two seniors, two juniors, one sophomore, elected in April, and one freshman, elected in February. The activities of the council include the care of infringement of rules involving penalization by demerits, the planning and execution of May Day exercises, which were in charge of Nancy J. Leaman, a tea, and this year in revising the Con- stitution of the Organization. In past years the Women's Student Council has also served as the IAIQJ Tribunal during freshmen customs. However, during the recent revision of the Constitution this year, it was proposed that the future Tri- bunal be composed of four sophomore members to be elected in Klay, a sophomore representative at the head, and the vice-president of council as an adviser. The purpose of the Tribunal would be to state freshmen Customs, enforce them, and penalize for the infringement of them. The VVomeifs Student Government Associa- tion holds its meetings in the drawing room of Alain Dorm on the first Wednesday of each month. Three dances, occurring in the fall, at Christmas, and in the spring, and held in Main Dorm, are sponsored by the association. KIembers 0f the Student Council are: Presi- dent, Lucille M. Hartzell; vice-president, RIary Louise Rice; secretary-treasurer, Josephine V. Fish; house presidents, V. Elizabeth Clift and Nancy R. Hemminger; senior representatives, Frances J. Koenig and Lucille KI. Smyser; jun- ior representatives, Nellie XVI. Klanges and Elsie M. Logan; sophomore representative, NIarjorie L. Amspacher; and freshman representative. Gyda Lund. MEN'S TRIBUNAL Menis Tribunal at Gettysburg was organized in 1922 for the purpose of trying cases and in- flicting punishments upon the first-year men who had broken the rules designated by the upper- ciassmen. Since 1922, Tribunal has been an an- nual custom, beginning the first week of school in the fall, and continuing until the new men are considered by the upperclassmen to deserve equal footing with other students. Following the precedent set in recent years, the tribunal board posted the list of culprits in a Glatfelter Hall every Thursday morning, on which evening those who had received their summons reported to the tribunal court for their trial. Their sentences were given in the form of weird costumes, signs, etc., that they were to wear until the next tribunal court session, with Tribunal hair- cuts given for continued offense. Next noon they were compelled to appear before the student body Shoemaker, Moyer, Hayes, Fiscus Beachy, Bower, Massoth HZOi on the steps of Old Dorm in their costumes and display themselves for final punishment and razz- ing as they related their misdeeds. Tribunal is governed by the Men,s Student Council. One representative from each fraternity and one non-fraternity man are chosen from the upperclassmen. Officers are elected within the group. This year,s Tribunal Court consisted of Thom- as E. Bower, non-fraternity, president; Robert H. Holland, Phi Sigma Kappa, vice-president; How- ard J. Shoemaker, Phi Delta Theta, secretary; and the following members: Louis E. Hayes, Lambda Chi Alpha; Howard H. Hummel, Phi Kappa Rho; James D. Fiscus, Phi Kappa Psi; Edwin P. Massoth, Tau Kappa Epsilon; John J. Moyer, Phi Gamma Delta; William Hoffman, Sigma Chi; Paul C. Dress, Alpha Tau Omega; Richard L. Senft, Kappa Delta Rho; and Wilbur H. Beachy, Sigma Alpha Epsilon. Pen and Sword Honorary Society was founded at Gettysburg College in the year 1897, having as its purpose to honor students on the campus who have made for themselves an outstanding place in their participation in campus activities or athletics, and who have expressed through this participation their willingness to further the wel- fare of their Alma Mater. Membership into Pen and Sword is limited to fifteen members, five Junior and ten Senior men. Students admitted into the society are nominated by the society and are elected by a special chapel vote of the entire student body for their notable achievements in the extra-curricular field. The Pen award is given to three Junior and three Senior students each year who are outstand- ing in forensic, literary or musical activities. Two Junior and two Senior men noteworthy for their PEN AND SWORD I121! prowess in athletics receive the Sword award. Under these classifications, Pen and Sword mem- bership is open to Junior and Senior men students who participate meritoriously in campus activities. As the Seniors are lost each year through grad- uation, the officers are elected each year from the Junior members. The officers for the 1940-41 term elected last spring are: President, William F. Muhlenberg; vice-president, Barkley Beidle- man; secretary, R. Taintor Smith. Senior members of Pen and Sword are: Bark- ley Beidleman, Quentin P. Garman, W. Kent Gilbert, Charles W. Little, William F. Muhlen- berg, Martin G. Levens, Edwin P. Massoth, Har- ry J. Simon, R. Taintor Smith, and Paul W. Trimmer. The five Junior members are: Elmer B. Ash- way, Jr., Ralph W. Cox, H.

Election to the society is en- tirely automatic upon achievement of the require- ments set for membership. The purposes of the society are threefold: to create a distinctively Cet- tysburgian agency for the recognition of distin- guished scholastic work and meritorious extra-cur- ricular achievement in all fields; to encourage the participation of the more competent students in activities other than those required for degree credit; and to form an active, non-political group of representative men and women who, with the faculty, will work for a greater Gettysburg. For undergraduate membership a student must have attained: an average higher than Bii in his major subject, or in two other subjects in which he has taken eighteen hours or more; a general I122! GETTYSBURG HONOR SOCIETY scholastic average not lower than 3,, for his work up to and including the first semester of his Senior year; and at least twenty points in extra- curricular activities. Members of the faculty who have served the college for ten years automatically become members of the organization. Officers of the organization are: President, Dr. H. W. A. Hanson; and secretary-treasurer, Prof. C. G. Reen. Other faculty members are as fol- lows: Prof. H. G. Hamme, Dr. G. R. Miller, Dr. C. H. Huber, Dr. J. B. Zinn, Dr. W. E. Tilberg, Dr. R. S. Saby, Dr. J. G. Glenn, Dr. F. H. Kramer, Prof. G. S. Warthen, Prof. C. P. Cessna, Dr. F. H. Clutz, and Dr. C. A. Sloat. Undergraduates elected to membership this year are: George E. Barrett, Barkley Beidleman, Kenneth R. Cann, Joseph C. Dise, Quentin P. Garman, W. Kent Gilbert, Chauncey M. Sanner, F. David Schaeffer, and R. Taintor Smith. Phi Beta Kappa, which was founded at Wil- liam and Mary College, December 5, 1776, stands for the highest ideals of scholarship, and embodies a spirit which is historically that of the American college-Iiberal education as distinguished from professional or technical training. In its elections to membership the group recognizes those students who give the greatest evidence of devotion to these ideals. A charter for a chapter of this society was granted to Gettysburg Coliege in September, 1922, and the chapter, known as the Iota Chapter of Pennsylvania, was organized January 11, 1923. Only those are eligible for election who, in addi- tion to good moral character and a high scholar- ship record, have satished all the requirements for the AB. degree and have taken in residence at Gettysburg College three-fourths of their work. No one is eligible who has not shown evidence of broad general culture. In making the selection of members, rank in class, literary, and similar col- lege activities, qualities of leadership, and promise of usefulness are taken into consideration. Elec- Ruof. Beidleman.

PHI BETA KAPPA I1231 KAPPA PHI KAPPA Kappa Phi Kappa, the national undergraduate fraternity for men, was founded in April, 1922, at Dartmouth College. Previous to this, Phi Del- ta Kappa was the only national education frater- nity; it had been formed in 1920. At a conven- tion held in 1922, the local Educational Society from Gettysburg petitioned Phi Delta Kappa for membership, as did a local educational group from Dartmouth. It was decided at this conven- tion to keep Phi Delta Kappa strictly for gradu- ate students and to form Kappa Phi Kappa as a national educational fraternity for undergradu- ates. The first chapter was founded at Dartmouth in April of that year. Dr. A. R. Gilliland, who was at that time a teacher at Dartmouth, went to be a professor at Lafayette the same year and he established the second chapter there. He came to lecture at Gettysburg, and on December 18, 1922, he founded here the third chapter, or Epsilon chapter, of Kappa Phi Kappa. Membership, for which juniors, seniors, and alumni are eligible, is limited to those who are definitely interested in 11241 Clark, Meals, Simon. Regemhal, Bremen Ewan. Bower Gruver, Prof. Shaffer, Kendlehart, Snyder, Heim the field of education. Scholarship and leadership are the qualifications necessary for membership. The local chapter began Mothers and Fathers Day functions sixteen years ago, and since then sponsoring these two events has been their main activity. They have many open meetings for all education students at which there are speakers on related topics. Dr. Frank H. Kramer is the faculty sponsor of the fraternity. The officers are as follows: presi- dent, John B. Kendlehart; vice-president, Henry M. Burman; secretary, Wayne E. Snyder; treas- urer, G. Robert Heim; and historian, Harold S. Gruver. The members are listed as follows: fac- ulty members, Dr. Frank H. Kramer, Prof. Lester 0. Johnson; seniors, Paul H. Bratten, Henry M. Burman, John M. Byers, G. Robert Heim, Harry J. Simon, Wayne E. Snyder, Almon A. Clark, C. Herbert Foutz, Harold S. Gruver, John B. Ken- dlehart, Richard D. Sheads; juniors, Thomas E. Bower, William A. Ewan, and William C. Regen- thal. Originally known as the Gettysburg College Biological Society, Beta Beta Beta is the national honorary society for students of biology who have attained singular honor in their work. The so- ciety seeks to stimulate scholarship and to peruse biological information in search of scientific truth. This aim is best reached through its national magazine, the Bios, through a series of lectures and movies, and through group projects in re- search. Membership in Beta Beta Beta is limited to the three upper classes and to majors in Biology or related sciences. Meetings are held twice a month, when papers on biological subjects are presented by the members, movies appropriate to the group interests are shown, or the group works together over some prearranged experiment or project. Each year the members prepare a large exhibit for Sub-Fteshman Day visitors. This project it- self takes up a great part of the year. E1251 Rho chapter was founded on the campus in 1928 from the old local Biological Society and has increased continuously in membership and prestige by its work alone. Dr. Earl Bowen and Dr. Paul D. Aultland are serving as faculty ad- visers to this group. Officers of the local chapter are: President, J William Ditzler; Vice-President, John B. Zeigler; Secretary, Estelle K. Hess; Treasurer, Dr. Paul D. Aultland; and Historian, Richard D. Sheads. Members of the society are: Jane E. Henry, Elsie M. Logan, William T. Fridinger, Helen S. Mondorff, Phillip H. Minnich, James R. Miller, August P. Ceill, Estelle K. Hess, J. William Ditz- ler, Barkley Beidleman, Richard D. Sheads, John B. Zeigler, Lenore A. Schwartz, William C. Wal- temyer, Frederick W.

Schwartz, Bley, VVehrman, Hall, Hartzell, Sundermyer Der Deutsche Verein is an organization of students interested in the language, literature, and life of the German people. As early as 1836 an organization of students had met for the purpose of the cultivation of a practical knowledge of the German language and literature. Then, in 1906, Dr. Karl J. Grimm, at that time head of the German department, reorganized the group into a campus society which became officially Der Deutsche Verein. It was made an official honorary German society in 1930, and its plans were enlarged to include literary programs on German life and culture along with the study of the language itself. Membership became open to students with an average of Bi in twelve or more hours of German or the majors in German. Although it is, today, a local campus organization, it is affiliated with a group of other collegiate German clubs in the United States, the meetings of which group was attended by delegates from the local club. Monthly meetings carry out the ideals of a study of German characters and customs as well as literature by presentations of various members of a professor on German authors, trends and influences in literature and economic situations. Music of German composition and origin was heard at one meeting this year along with the singing of German Q'lyrics by the members. The hnal meeting is in the form of an annual picnic. Prof. William K. Sundermeyer and Prof. George F. Gutmann of the German department are faculty sponsors and advisers of the organization. The president, John S. Hall, is assisted by Lenore A. Schwartz, vice-president; Edward R. Bley, treasurer; and Margaret S. Wehrman, secretary. Members of the organization are: seniors, John S. Hall, Margaret S. Wehrman, David S. Schaeffer, Lucille M. Hartzell, Richard E. Walters; juniors, Lenore A. Schwartz, Ruth W. Katz, Margaret B. Keller, Edward R. Bley, Glenn H. Bowersox, Walter R. Kopp, C. Edward Fisher; and sophomores, Heinz Schwaninger, Elizabeth J. Hite, and Helen F. Williamson. I1261 Phi Sigma Iota is the national honorary society for the Romance Languages. The purpose of the organization is to study, make research into, and to create an apprecia- tion of the French, Spanish, and Italian languages and cultures. In this way the society seeks the promotion of amity between nations using those languages and our own nation. Regular monthly meetings of the Gettysburg chapter are held at which the faculty and senior members of the group each read papers of their own preparation on subjects taken from some special aspect of the life, culture, or literature of the French, Spanish, or Italian nation. This year papers were prepared and read by Dr. William Starr, Mar- garet S. Wehrman, Suzanne E. Heiges, Sara Jane Sheffer, Edna Mae Black, and Harold S. Gruver. On special occasions special speakers are secured, such as Dr. Osuna, who is asso- ciated with the Department of Education of the University of Puerto Rico, who spoke on Puerto Rican Education. Membership in Phi Sigma Iota is restricted to Juniors and Seniors who have ob- tained honors in French and Spanish and who have a high general scholastic average in those and other subjects. Those who have earned membership into Phi Sigma Iota are: SeniorSeI-Iestet V. Allison, J. Elizabeth Barrick, Edna Mae Black, Harold S. Gruver, Suzanne E. Heiges, Sara Jane SheEer, and Margaret S. Wehrman; Juniors-Jacqueline H. Clark, Ann Gardner, Virginia M. Huyett, William C. Regenthal, Elizabeth Ann Sheffer, and Estelle G. Tyson. Faculty members are: Dr. Albert Bachman, Dr. William Starr, Prof. Herbert G. Hamme, and Prof. William D. Hattshorne. Tau chapter of Phi Sigma Iota was installed at Gettysburg College on February 20, 1931, by Dr. Otto Miller. The society recognizes outstanding ability and attainments in the Romance languages and in the Romance literatures. Since its founding at Gettys- burg it has earnestly fulfilled its purpose.

Freed. PHI ' Eta Sigma Phi is an organization of students of the Greek and Roman languages and history who desire to continue their interest and further their knowledge of these subjects. Their purpose is to increase knowledge in and to develop a fellowship between students of the classics, along with an insight into the modern aspects of that field of study. The chapter at Gettysburg College is a member of a national organization formed in 1924 by groups at Northwestern and Chicago Universities interested in the Classical studies. On campus a local Philhellenic Society was organized in 1927 by students interested in Latin and Greek culture. This group became the Alpha Pi chapter of the national Eta Sigma Phi fraternity in the spring of 1931. Meetings of the organization are held once a month, and usually consist of business followed by the presentation of some subject related to the classical field in the form of a paper or a discussion. One of the meetings in the spring is in the form of a Latin or Greek banquet, another includes a speech given by some prominent leader in the field of the classics. The year is concluded by a joint picnic with Phi Sigma Iota, society for romance language students. Dr. John G. Glenn 0f the Latin department and Professor W. Frederick Shaffer 0f the Greek department, are faculty advisors as well as members of the organization. Professor George F. Gutman and Professor Lester 0. Johnson are also charter members. L. Stanley Whitson is president of the organization along with Leigh Bell, vice-president; Ruth VV. Katz, secretary; and George E. Barrett, treasurer. The members are J. Elizabeth Barrick, Harry L. Berkebile, Jacqueline H. Clark, Betty G. Griffith, Ann A. Hitchins, David R. Hoover, Glenn B. Keidel, Harold S. Knoll, Walter R. Kopp, Arthur E. Kramer, George W. Reneker, Charles E. Ritter, Jr., Harold R. Sandercock, Elizabeth Anne Sheffer, Robert B. Thornburg, Richard E. Walters, Frederick K. Wentz, Kathleen T. VVentz, and Morris Zumbrum. George D. Birk, Edward R. Bley, Marin L. Dolbeer, Jr., W. Kent Gilbert, Frederick G. Gotwald, Elizabeth J. Hite, Phyllis T. Krumrine, Howard J. NIcCarney, and Edwin D. Freed were initiated at the beginning of the school term and Carolyn G. Foelsch, C. Leroy Schumaker, David E. Thomas, and Robert W. Koons became members at the beginning of the second semester. 1 1281 Pi Lambda Sigma is an honorary society for those students whose interests lie in the fields of Economics and Political Science. Students who plan to pursue the legal pro- fession or to go into the business world comprise the membership of this group. Originally Pi Lambda Sigma was, here at Gettysburg, an organization known as the Pre-Legal Union. At that time only students preparing for law were eligible for mem- bership. In 1929 the local group became Gamma chapter of Pi Lambda Sigma, 3 na- tional society, but membership was still exclusive to law students. In 1935, however, Pi Lambda Sigma merged with another national society, Alpha Psi Epsilon, a business fraternity. In this manner both business and pre-legal students were recognized for membership into Pi Lambda Sigma. This society brings its members into a close contact with the business and legal worlds, striving to keep them posted on current developments and movements in those fields. Guest speakers are secured for monthly meetings and projects pertaining to the group interests are engaged in throughout the year. Dr. Rasmus S. Saby and Prof. George R. Larkin are the faculty advisors to Pi Lambda Sigma. Membership is limited to Junior and Senior students only. Chauncey M. Sanner is the president of Gamma chapter, while George W. Reneker is secretary and M. Jane Moss is the treasurer. Members of the organization are Henry Beisler, Jr., Joseph C. Dise, Charles W. Little, Edwin P. Massoth, Ross G. Menoher, M. Jane Moss, Chauncey M. Sanner, F. David Schaeffer, Malcom R. Daugherty, Elmer B. Ashway, Sumner L. Bossier, Lee W. Haberlin, H. George Hanawalt, John W. King, Ruth H. Mehring, C.

Dr. Sloat, Van Dyke Sceptical Chymists is an honorary society for students who are majoring in or have an interest in chemistry. Being founded on the Gettysburg campus in 1929, Sceptical Chymists at once set forth its two major aims, which have been successfully carried out through a period of over ten years; first, to offer a means by which the student interested in chemistry may keep pace with modern advancement in the field through stimulation of wider reading and stimulation of chemical investigation; the second, no less important than the first, is the promotion of public speaking. Regular meetings of Sceptical Chymists, which are open to any interested student on the campus, are held from seven to eight olclock on every second and fourth lllon- day evening of the month in the chemistry lecture room in Science Hall. Included in each program are three or four short talks by pledges or members on subjects of cur- rent interest in the chemical field. Several talks given during the past year concerned plastics, nylon, chemical warfare, and there were also several biographies of great scien- tists. One meeting this year was devoted to motion pictures on the manufacture and use of several duPont products. Professional and industrial men in the scientific field are sometimes invited to speak to the Chymists. Although Sceptical Chymists was organized for chemistry majors, students major- ing in a related science may become members by a two-thirds vote of the society. Pre- vious t0 the annual initiation, which takes place in NIarch, each pledge is required to give a talk in one of the regular meetings. A prize is awarded at the beginning of the next school term for the best prepared and the best delivered speech of the year. The Gettysburg chapter of Sceptical Chymists always attends the annual conven- tion of the Intercollegiate Student Chemists Association and will play host to the con- vention in the future. The 1940 meeting was held at Albright College last April, while the convention this year was held April 26 at Villanova College. Dr. John B. Zinn and Dr. Charles A. Sloat are advisers to Sceptical Chymists. while the officers include Clarence H. Ruof, president; D. Ernest Witt, vice-president; Elsie lW. Logan, secretary; and Ross E. Van Dyke, treasurer. E1301 Pi Delta Epsilon is the national honorary fraternity which recognizes those students who have successfully attained outstanding achievements in the field of journalism or literary expression. Gettysburg chapter of Pi Delta Epsilon was organized on this campus in 1939 from a local group having the same ideals and known as the Blue Crocodiles. This group proposes to seek improvement and perfection in literary expression through honoring those who make singular progress in the field and by supporting and encouraging the various publications on the campus. Only this year the group succeeded in making the G-Book an independent publication for the entire student body, and devised a system by which the oHicers of the books staff will be filled by merit, with the new staEs being recommended by the older, experienced, retiring members. Plans are now being formulated to put the selection of officers for the SPECTRUM on a merit basis, to be run in much the same manner as that of the G-Book, basing honor on service and qualification for the position. Feeling that a friendly relationship must exist among the separate publications and is essential to their success, Pi Delta Epsilon exerts itself toward achieving this aim by bringing together the leaders of the different groups and through them furthering a mutual understanding between the individual staff member. Charles W. Little acts as president of the group, with W. Kent Gilbert as vice- president, David E. Thomas as secretary, and Prof. Donald R. Heiges as treasurer and chapter adviser. The members of the group, which is represented by students attaining honors in work on The Gettysburgian, The Mercury, THE SPECTRUM, and The G-Book staffs, include: faculty, Prof. Donald R. Heiges; seniors, Barkley B. Beidlemen, Kenneth R. Cann, W. Kent Gilbert, and Charles W. Little; and juniors, Thomas N. Cannavo, Charles J. Fite, H. George Hanawalt, Mary Louise Rice, Jarvis K.

The program of the Association is carried on by sixteen committees, the chairmen of which together with the General Secretary and the officers of the organization, make up the S. C. A. cabinet. Meet- ings of the cabinet, in charge of the president, are held on the second and fourth Monday eve- nings of the month. 5. C. A. Nights, which seek to bring subjects of student interest before the campus, are held on the first Monday evening of each month at seven dclock and are in charge of the program com- mittee of the organization. One meeting this year centered around the allotments and expendi- tures of the Student Chest Fund. At another meeting E. Frederic Morrow, a Negro leader from New York City, discussed the status of the Negro in America. Throughout the year the Christian Association carries out projects such as Freshman Week, Religion-in-Life Week, and Sub-Freshman Day. During Freshman Week, the S. C. A. sponsors a reception, a camphre, and an opening get-togethet. Religion-in-Life Week this year carried out the theme Religion in a World of Conflict? in pro- grams at chapel, candlelight, vespets, and two eve- ning sessions at various faculty homes. Other projects include Christmas caroling, Saturday Open House, cabin retreats, attendance at con- ventions, andia monthly publication. The activities of the S. C. A. are so varied and extensive that it is impossible to mention here all that it does. The welI-rounded program, social and religious, has been pointed out and it can be seen that the Student Christian Association is working towards its primary aim of leading stu- dents to faith in God through Christ. Whetstone. Hanawait. Beachy, Munneil Wentz, Rhoads, Barrett, Miller. Gilbert MEN'S Dr. Thomas L. Cline, head of the English de- partment, organized a Varsity Debating Council for men in 1922 to foster the art of debate and increased the value of forensics on campus. This organization prepared and presented debates on certain questions of current economic or social importance against teams from other Eastern colleges. The two topics under discussion this year are: Resolved: That a permanent union of the United States and Great Britain should immediately be established; and, Resolved: That the nations of the Western Hemisphere should enter into a per- manent union. The Oregon style of debate is largely used, involving a cross-questioning of the speaker by his opponent and makes for more interesting Bresentation as it brings the issues of the case to a very definite clash of ideas and facts. A full schedule of debates has been completed with many colleges in the East. Besides the regular debates with schools such as Bucknell, Colgate, Dickinson, Franklin and Marshall, Western Mary- land, Muhlenbetg, and Lehigh, three major trips were taken. The Northern trip during the week of March 12 to 19 was a tour of eleven colleges in and near Philadelphia and Allentown in Penn- sylvania and New York City. Three members of the squad attended a session at Penn State on March 14 and 15 during which time delegates DEBATE IIHI COUNCIL from many surrounding schools conducted a model congress dealing with the problems of the subject of a union of the Western Hemisphere. Another event of the season was the model con- gress held at the annual Intercollegiate Debate Meet at Kingston, Rhode Island. W. Kent Gilbert, John W. Munnell, and George E. Barrett are president, vice-president, and treasurer, respectively, of the Varsity Debate Council. Robert W. Rhoads is manager and C. Edward Fisher is Assistant manager. The organ- izer, Dr. Thomas L. Cline, is the able coach and advisor for the debaters. Members of the squad include Frederick K. Wentz, Harold V. Whet- stone, H. George Hanawalt, Malcolm R. Dough- erty, C. Leroy Schumacher, Ralph L. Stehley, Wilbert H. Beachy, JL, and G. Thomas Miller. Freshmen who are aspiring to a position on the varsity squad are debating the proposition, Re- solved: That the powers of the federal govern- ment should be increased. They are coached by Dr. Francis C. Mason, who directs their debates with surrounding high school teams and other collegiate freshmen. Dual debates were held with Carlisle and Hanover High Schools, with Gettys- burg High School and the freshmen of Loyola College. Donald W. Herb manages the team, which consists of John W. Pfahler, William L. Shelley, Robert D. Lang, Carlton A. Robinson, Henry G. W. Lohman, JL, and Ward Maines. Stitt, Sheraw, Katz Dunkelberger. Heiges, Wertz Fink , Fisher, Smyser WOMEN'S DEBATE COUNCIL Soon after the return of coeducation to Gettys- burg, a debating team for the coeds was organized in the collegiate year 1938-39 under the direction of Prof. G. Saylor Warthen, professor of Eng- lish. The purpose of the organization was not only the development of rhetorical skill and ability to argue fluently and powerfully, but also a broaden- ing of the knowledge about political and economic situations in our own country and the world at large. This involves a thorough study of the problem offered, its factual meaning and its pro- posed remedies, followed by a discussion of these ideas by the members of the team in preparation for the debates. This year the questions of a union of the United States with Great Britain or the Western Hemis- phere nations are being deliberated. They are: Resolved: That the United States should form a permanent union with Great Britain immediately; and, Resolved: That the nations of the Western Hemisphere should form a permanent union. In- stead of the old orthodox style of constructive speech and destructive tebuttle, the Oregon pro- cedure is followed, by which each side presents l1351 one constructive speech and one summary of the issue, between which there is a rapid cross- questioning of the speakers by their opponents. This procedure brings to light the vital issues involved and creates a powerful contention between the opposing views. After the opening debate with Penn State on February 4, the first trip was made to the Lehigh Valley area, where debates were held against the men at Muhlenberg and teams from Cedar Crest College and Moravian Seminary for Women. This trip, during the second week in March, also in- cluded competition against the men,s teams of Ursinus. Other opponents were teams from Franklin and Marshall, Lebanon Valley, Dickin- son, Bucknell, University of Maryland. Lucille M. Smyser is manager of the team, as- sisted by Suzanne E. Heiges. The other members of the team are Dorothy J. Dunkelberger, Ruth W. Katz, Dorothy L. Wertz, and Charlotte A. Fink. The freshmen coed debaters, Ethel F. Sherawv and Edna E. Fisher have debated fresh- men teams from some of the schools already men- tioned on both of the questions under consideration. TAU KAPPA ALPHA Katz, Hanawalt, Barrett Stitt, Heiges Rhoads, Smyser, Gilbert Butler College in 1908 was the scene of the organization of a national honorary forensic fraternity for undergraduates. The purpose of this society was itto recognize excellence in public speaking and to develop and promote interest in oratory and debate among the students of colleges and universities? This it aimed to carry out by conducting planned debates and attempting to interest the student body as a whole in other forensic activities. Students interested in forensics in the form of debate at Gettysburg formed a chapter of this fraternity on May 19, 1917. This organization was also the first national honorary fraternity to ever have a chapter on this campus. Since its establishment in 1917 the fraternity has been vitally concerned with public speaking and debating activities on campus. Realizing that debate is the most important forensic activity on campus, the members consider the development of that activity on campus, its management, and discuss sug- gestions for improvement in plans, etc. It also sponsors the annual debate smoker held in the S. C. A. at the beginning of each school year for members of the debate teams and other students, freshmen or otherwise, who are interested in the art of debate. At that time a tentative view of the year,s plans are presented and students are urged to participate in debating. Dr. Thomas L. Cline, head of the English department, is faculty advisor for this organization. Dean Wilbur E. Tilberg and Prof. G. Saylor Warthen are also members and advisors. W. Kent Gilbert is student president, Lucille M. Smyser is vice-president, and Robert W. Rhoads fills the dual oHice of secretary-treasurer. New members are chosen at the end of each debate season on the basis of their activity and excellence in debate and their ability in .public speaking. The organization at present includes Lucille M. Smyser, R. Elizabeth Stitt, Suzanne E. Heiges, Ruth W. Katz, George E. Barrett, William J. Ditzler, W. Kent Gilbert, Robert W. Rhoads, and H. George Hanawalt. I1361 Organized by those Gettysburg College students who are preparing for the ministry, the Pre-Ministerial Association seeks to create a greater feeling for the ministry. Its bi-monthly meetings are held with the idea that this purpose may be more easily accomplished through lectures and npen discussions of a philosophical and religious nature. Dr. Charles F. Sanders acts in the advisory capacity for this group. Other activities of the group consist in projects designed to bring its members into closer contact with the world of the ministry such as deputation work. Debates on subjects of special interest tn the ministry are frequently entered into by the various members of the group, further- ing still more the prime purpose of the Association. These men are paving their ways into a great profession which they feel, through the mediums of their own spirit and through their appreciation of their own religion, they are meant to follow. Officers of the Pre-Ministerial Association are: George E. Barrett, President; Gordon E. Fulkemer, Vice-President; L. Stanley VVhitson, Secretary-Treasurer; and David R. Hoover, Corr responding Secretary. Senior members include: Leigh Bell, George D. Birk, Quentin P. Garman, W. Kent Gilbert, Edwin T. Greniger, Glen B. Keidcl, Harold S. Knoll, Arthur E.

From approximately one hundred and seventy- tive applicants, the few who are accepted must qualify in general intelligence character, trueness l 1401 of ear and musical feeling and ability and will- ingness to do hard work. It has become an annual custom that the Choir gives two programs on campus one at Christmast and the other at Easter. In coopera- tion with the Student Christian Association, the choir gives its Christmas concert before the school vacation. For its Easter program, the choir presents an Oratorio on the Tuesday of Holy Week. The choir has established for itself such a good reputation that these programs draw many people from Gettysburg and vicinity. Dr. W. C. VVaItemyer, the faculty manager. and S. Dick Snyder, student manager. made at- rangements for concerts in many cities. among them Chznnbersburg. Spring Grove, Red Lion, Baltimore. Hanover, York. XViIliamspm-t, RUI- ton, KIt. Carmel, Schuylkill Haven. hVestfield. Conshohocken, Philadelphizu and Frederick. Part of the great success of the choir is due to the deep admiration of the members for the director, Parker B. VVagnild. To his understand- ing of young people and his devotion to his work, the Choir responds with :1 spirit of loyalty and cooperation that is uncommon in college organizations. His ability to bring into harmony fifty voices for the most part untrained, lies in 21 sparkling sense of humor. :1 tine Christian per- sonality, and an amazing knowledge and appre- ciation of music. Although Gettysburg College does not main- tain a music department, the college band is one of the agencies which fosters activities in this field on the campus. The hand was begun sixteen years ago, in 1924., under the leadership of Prof. H. H. Saltzer who was at that time a member of the Engineering Departmenfs teaching staff. It continued under his leadership until the En- gineering Department was disbanded and Prof. Saltzer was no longer connected with the col- lege. Since then lIr. Charles Rogers, who is a Gettysburg graduate, has assumed the position of leadership. The band is an organization of approximately forty members who are admitted after tryouts have been arranged. Both the manager and the student leader are elected annually by the mem- bers of the band. This year a drum inajorette has appeared with the drum major for the first time. hIary Louise Rice gained the distinction of holding this place. The band furnishes music for all home football and basketball games. for some games away, and for several other occasions during the year. An added new feature this year was the spring concert given under the direction of Mr. Rogers. The band was formed with the idea that Hthe organization, instrumentation, and training would be directed toward creditable performance both in concert work and in con- nection with athletic contestsfy The oHicers 0f the band are: student leader. James H. Allison; librarian, William T. Fridin- ger; manager, John S. Saby; drum major, Richard Crouse; drum majorette, NIaI'y L. Rice.

Knons THEl In the interests of orientating incoming Fresh- men with Gettysburg College, the students pub- lish each year The G-Book, a hand manual which has as its main purpose to furnish the informa- tion about Gettysburg College which will be most valuable to the newcomers to the campus. Work on the G-Book begins early in the spring when the material to fill its pages is gathered and evaluated and the information organized for print- ing. During the summer the book is printed and sent to the prospective Freshmen several weeks before they actually get to Gettysburg. Thereby they are given a chance to learn a great deal they will need to know before they are actually faced with campus problems. The book becomes almost indispensable during the first weeks at Gettys- burg. Originally under the sponsorship of the SCA, the book next year will be published under the rulings of Pi Delta Epsilon, placing it as a pub- lication on equal footing with The Gettysburgian, Mercury, and SPECTRUM. Arthur E. Kramer edited the 1940 handbook. He was capably assisted by a board of eight as l1461 G BOOK his editorial assistants: Marjorie L. Amspacher, Glen H. Bowersox, Josephine V. Fish, Robert W. Koons, Robert G. Reiter, George N. Thompson, William C. Waltemyer, and Frederick K. Wentz. Robert W. Parvin was chairman of the Busi- ness Board which took the responsibility for the economic problems entailed in the printing of the book. He was assisted by four students: Walter F. Forker, Suzanne E. Heiges, G. Thomas Miller, and L. Stanley Whitson. The book contains items such as a campus di- rectory, a Whols Who on the Campus, general hints for success in the life of the Gettysburg Col- lege, information about the social life, directions for freshman week, and the songs and cheers clear to every Gettysburgian. Without the aid of this handbook, there would be many freshmen completely lost as they face a college life. The book has increased in efficiency each year and an attempt has been made to in- formalize the style of the book, to make it more useful each time it is published, and to work for the general improvement of the book.

THE The Mercury is the campus literary production which really gives the students a chance to put their creative talents to work. Short stories, poe- try, essays, witticisms, as well as the serious, make up each of the six issues of this student magazine which are put out each year. Staff members serve a probationary period writ- ing for the magazine before they become full- Hedged writers and a part of the Mercury staff. Originality of thought and style, genuine ability to write in an interesting fashion, and a willing- ness to cooperate in the large job of putting out such a journal are required of every person at- taining a position on the Mercury staE. The Mercury is a self-supporting activity, and its publication is regulated under the rulings of the local chapter of Pi Delta Epsilon, as it is rec- ognized as a major campus publication. In early March the stag holds its annual ban- quet, at which time it honors those members of its staff who have displayed merit in their work with the magazine, and at which keys are pre- sented to the retiring staff members in recognition of their faithful service.

MERCURY new staff takes over the duties left it by the re' tiring editors. The Mercury was revived, after a long period of inactivity, only two years ago, but it has been quick to regain its former popularity through making its pages interesting and appeal- ing. The Mercury editorial board included Charles W. Little, Editor-in-Chief; Sara Jane SheHer, As- sociate Editor; Raymond Markley, Managing Ed- itor; and Mary Lou Rice, Assistant Literary Ed- itor. The editorial staff included Al Clark, Char- lotte Fink, Jim Heifer, Lucille Hartzell, Robert Koons, Tom Miller, George Reneker, Helen Saby, Chauncey Sanner, George Thompson, Maurice Weaver, and Shirley Wood. David Schaeffer was Business Manager, with Elmer Ashway, Frank Herdje, George Soderman, George Fissel, and Richard Rudisill. The circula- tion staff is made up of James Fiscus, Paul Gipe, George Wardle, and Robert Erskine. Dr. Thomas L. Cline was Literary Adviser, Dr. Rasmus S.

Kramer Cultivation of the spirit of philosophy, which is the honest and persistent search for truth, was the ideal of the founders of an organiza- tion called The Sages, which originated on campus in 1911. This group continued actively for some time until it was finally dissolved in 1915. The organization, however, was reorgan- ized again in 1925, developed rapidly, and be- came a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha, a na- tional fraternity of persons interested in the study and discussion of philosophical questions. The Gettysburg chapter of Alpha Kappa A1- pha remained active for several years, and then that group was reorganized which had been called The Sages, in 1911. Under the original name, this local organization, which is the pres- ent philosophical group, carries on the same activities quite extensively. Anyone who is a student of philosophy and is interested in further study and development of that knowledge may become a member. H481 The organization meets every other week, at which time a member will lead a discussion on some question in the field of philosophy, 01' at which Dr. Sanders will speak to the members on such a topic. Dr. Charles F. Sanders, head of the philos- ophy department, has been an organizer and active member of the philosophical societies on campus and is at present faculty adviser. W. Kent Gilbert is president of the organization. Other officers are Quentin P. Garman, vice- president, and David E. Thomas, secretary- treasurer. The following are members: Leigh Bell, John W. Rheuby, Charles E. Ritter, Jr., George E. Barrett, Glenn B. Keidel, Vinton G. McClellan, Virginia C. Nagele. R. Elizabeth Stitt, Paul R. Swank, Harold V. Whetstone, Frederick K. Wentz, Arthur E. Kramer, Louis F. Mertz, and David R. Hoover. Kappa Delta Epsilon is an undergraduate education fraternity for women. Its purpose is to promote the cause of education, to foster among its members professional ideals, high standards of scholastic attainment, and a spirit of mutual helpfulness. Kappa Delta Epsilon was founded on March 25, 1933, at a convention held for the purpose of considering plans for forming a national professional education society for women. This movement was sponsored by Dean Will Grant Chambers of Pennsylvania State College, Pro- fessor Frederick G. Henke of Allegheny Col- lege, and by Mr. Arthur Wright. The Womenk Educational Society of Gettys- burg College petitioned Kappa Delta Epsilon for membership in February, 1939, and on March 18, 1939, this group was formally installed. Miss Margaret Zinn was the sponsor of the group until 1940 when Miss Rebecca Sachs took her place. Swarlz. Dunkleberger Clift, Keller. vasel Grifhth. Leaman. Spangler Sheff . Huyett.

KAPPA DELTA EPSILON PHI ALPHA THETA Replacing the Gettysburg Historical Society, which had been inactive for several years, a group of students, along with Prof. Robert J. Fortenbaugh, organized an historical honorary society at Gettysburg on June 1, 1938. The new organization was to be called Kappa Ep- silon Alpha and was formed for the purpose of stimulating a vital interest in the field of history on the college campus and promoting the work of the history department? Dr. For- tenbaugh was also chosen faculty adviser of the group. In the fall of 1938 petitions were made in regard to membership of the local chapter into the national honorary fraternity, Phi Alpha Theta, which led to the installation of the local Omega chapter on May 30, 1939. Meetings include historical book reviews, il- lustrated talks, discussions, or a topic presented by a member.

Saltzer, who was also responsible for the formation of the col- lege band at the same time. Prof. Saltzer continued in the capacity of leader until this year, when Mr. Charles C. Rogers, an alumnus of Gettysburg College, assumed responsibility. The orchestra is composed usually of approximately twenty members who are chosen because of their ability as musicians. The purpose of the organization is to maintain an orchestra which, through ade- quate drill and rehearsal periods, may serve the College creditably on all occasions where playing is required, and which will THE COLLEGE i g ORCHESTRA 6 build a repertoire of standard and classical music for such occasions. The ofhcers of the orchestra are as fol- lows: Director, Charles C. Rogers; stu- dent leader, James H. Allison; and student manager, Walter F. Forker.

Scabbard and Blade is an honorary society for military science students who have achieved distinction in their work in that field, have maintained a high scholastic average, and have manifest an active interest in the activities of the campus. E Company, Third Regiment of Scabbard and Blade, was established at Gettysburg Col- lege on February 17, 1922, the national society being founded in 1905 at the University of Wisconsin. It holds as its purpose to encour- age and to inculcate the knowledge of military science, as well as ideals and honor in R. O. T. C. students. Robert W.

Men who have gained membership into Scab- bard and Blade are commissioned ofhcers in the R. O. T. C. unit, are of high moral standing, have high scholastic averages, and have high qualities as leaders among the campus groups. The local R. O. T. C. Unit was formed on the Gettysburg College campus under a ruling passed by Congress in 1916, to prepare a number of men who would be trained well in military science and tactics in case of the emergency of war. In that same year a local unit was founded here at Cettys- burg. Under the direction of Lieutenant Colonel Eli- jah G. Arnold, of the U. S. Infantry; Captain Adelbert H. Weisbrod; First Lieutenant John C. Hollinger, Infantry Reserve, U. S. A., and Staff Sergeant Raymond Strohm, D.E.M.L.-R.O.T.C., the local unit of the Reserve thcersl Training Corps are instructed in military drill and in mili- tary science as a part of their college work. The objective of a four-year course under the guidance of qualified army officers is a commis- sion as Second Lieutenant in the Officers, Reserve Corps, U. S. A., Infantry Branch. Commissions may also be gained in the Medical Reserve Corps or the Chaplains, Reserve Corps in special cases. Gettysburg is also on the accredited list of col- leges whose military students may be candidates for appointment in the U. S. Marine Corps, if nominated. The R. O. T. C. Rifle Team is composed of the best marksmen of the Reserve OHicers Train- ing Corps. The team engages in frequent inter- collegiate matches, both telegraphic and shoulder- to-shoulder.

TU YDS.TO GO - b llibl FIFTY YEARS OF FOOTBALL Fifty years ago, on a windswept field back of Old Dorm and bounded by Washington Street and the pres- ent baseball diamond, football at Gettysburg College made an inauspicious start. With no pads, crude rules. and 110 athletic associa- tion, the uld-timers played under parental disfavnr in a rough, Casualty-filled game. Those were the good old days when seven men stood shoulder to shoulder in a wedge of line rushers, followed by four running backs who were liable to find anything.r from a touchdown to a broken leg when the wedge was finally stopped. Piling 0n and unneces- sary roughness were unknown then and referees as well as players were open to injury. Casualties were very frequent, and the tradition here was to carve the name of the player and the date on the standard crutch which was used all the time for foot injuries. The first game on the Campus was held October 19, 1890, when Millersville visited the locals. In a rough, elcse game, Millersville came out on top, 6-4, by virtue of a drnp-kiek field goal. Later the Bullets traveled to F. and M. and lost decisively, 68-0, mostly due to lack of experience. One Lancaster paper commented: For nearly two hours the crowd watched the most gentlemanly game of the season. Every man of the visiting team played not only football, but also the part of a gentleman. Football today is :1 far cry from what it was half a century ago, but Gettysburg has carried right along with the spirit of the game and has amassed an enviae ble record among teams of their own class. Well equipped today with a fine Held and excellent gym, tine training, and a smooth-functioning athletic association, Gettysburg College football has become the leading sport on the campus. Sixteen coaches have led Bullet teams since that day back in 1890, and the Bat- tlet-ielders boast the hne percentage of .542 for the period. This past year, 19.1.1, although far from the best Gettysburg has enjoyed on the gridiron, was filled throughout with the golden anniversary spirit. A gold football was used to start every home game, and at the F. and M. game, which was Homecoming Day, five of the original 1890 team members were present and became the toast of the large and colorful crowd. The F. and M. series has run continuously since that first game which the Lancaster paper commended, with' F. and M. holding a slight edge in victories. Although the game has passed from the flying wedge stage to the day of tricky wingbaek and pass forma- tions, and from the day of small crowds of enthusiasts standing along a bleak, bare, open field, to the day of large throngs seated comfortably around a weH-marked, smooth greensward, Gettysburg teams have built up and preserved a great tradition of fighting spirit and Clean sportsmanship that has made the Bullets the toast of all small colleges in her own class.

Gettysburgls gridiron warriors opened their 19.1.0 autumnal campaign by defeating a fighting football eleven from Wooster College by the close score, 6-0. This was the first athletic meeting of these two schools and since this was the case comparatively little was known beforehand of this Ohio aggregation. Shortly after the contest was under way, however, it became quite apparent that the Battlefield boys had a real battle on their hands. Although the Wooster team had little to offer in the manner of offensive play, they contented themselves with thwarting the Gettysburg offensive with hard-eharging defensive tactics. How- ard Shoemaker and Jim Hardy, the flashy backfield combine 0f the Bullets, broke away repeatedly for long jaunts into enemy territory, but were never able to score. Early in the opening canto th'e Breamites moved the oval down to the visitorsy five-yard line. At that point the Wooster boys took heart and gave a fine ex- hibition of defensive football. Not to be denied, the local lads came back later in the same period and once again threatened to hit the pay dirt across the double white lines, but this time a fumble proved dis- astrous to the Bullet cause, as the Oh'ioans recovered the loose ball. Later in this same period the Bullets registered what proved to be their initial victory of the season by virtue of scoring a touchdown that re- mained the deciding victory margin. This was brought about when Russ Sohnleitner, speedy halfback, snared a long forward pass thrown by Joe Stock on the 10- yard stripe and raced unharmed into touchdown land. Touchdowns came at a premium in the next Satur- day's setto as G-Burg swept aside a hapless Drexel aggregation by the overwhelming score of 41-0 on the latter's field. This contest was a complete reversal from the previous Saturday. The game was only minutes old when Howard Shoemaker slashed off tackle, re- versed his field and was off on a 63-yard jaunt to record the initial of the parade of touchdowns that was eventually to follow in his wake. Fred Geiter, hard-charging Bullet back, gained almost at will through the Dragon forward wall. Geiter it was in the first period who crashed over the final marker for the game's second tally. Not to be outdone, Shoemaker came back in the second period and reeled off another long run that merely added to the total. This time the Gettysburg fullback galloped 60 yards for the score. In order to relieve the first-string men when it became evident that victory was well assured, Coach Hen Bream sent in replacements who gave very creditable showings during the remainder of the game. It is well to add that Drexel in spots gave some display of tal- ent, especially in the ball-toting of Quarterback Halas. G-Burg's two-game winning streak came to a very abrupt end when the Bullets met the Lafayette Leop- ards the next week and were practically annihilated for their efforts by that group of worthies. The score was Lafayette 4.5, Gettysburg 6. The powerful Leop- ard was not to be denied on that particular afternoon. The first quarter found the Bullets holding their own with the men of Mylin. But in the second canto the storm descended as the Leopards put forth for public approval a group of backfield aces and a formidable forward wall that ground the Bullets fairly well into the turf. In this second period Zirinsky, Leopard half- back, broke loose through the scrimmage line and with some swivel-hipped action eluded wouId-be G-Burg tacklers to go on his merry way to touchdown number one. Moyer then took up the habit and on a wide end sweep scored from Gettysburg's 30-yard marker behind perfect blocking from his teammates. MeNight con- tinued the pace in the second half and contributed no less than three touchdowns for his cause during the course of the game. The one bright spot of the after- noon from a Gettysburg viewpoint was the sustained march of seventy yards the Breamites staged in the final quarter, which they Climaxed with their lone touchdown. Bill Florsheim, sophomore quarterback, was the spearhead of this brief attack, doing some line running and passing. Gettysburg and Franklin and Marshallehere was a game that held all the tradition, glamor and color that makes football the grand game it is. A great game it waSethe first half. F. and M. at this time was riding the crest of optimism, recently having defeated Dart- mouth for a very startling upset in the grid ranks. Gettysburg fought this powerful grid machine tooth and nail for the entire first half, the Bullets threatene ing to score on numerous occasions, but each time fail- ing to produce the final scoring punch. In this first half drive Jim Hardy and Howard Shoemaker were I161! the Battlefield offensive spearhead, producing some very fine ball carrying. In the closing seconds of the first half, with neither side having scored as yet, Bill Far- kas, Nevonian halfback, dropped back to the G-BurE 35-yard line and drove a perfect place-kick between the uprights to give the lads from Lancaster a 3-0 halftime lead. It was seemingly a different Diplomat eleven that took the field the second half, because they took offensive tactics away from the tiring Bullets and drove relentlessly toward their hrst touchdown. Lead- ing the way in this spirited attack was the little Ne- vnnian seat back, Johnny Quick, who kept slashing at the Gettysburg line for the remainder of the Contest for substantial gains. The Bullet gridiron stock continued to decrease in the following game when they met a much underrated grid team from Muhlenberg. Muhlenberg was primed for this tilt and displayed that fact in their spirited play against the Breamites. Coach Doggie Julian reached into his bag of tricks for this game and the result was most startling, since his proteges unleased an attack that had the Bullets mystified through the whole afternoon of play. Dispensing with their usual powerhouse strategy, the Mules brought forth laterals and everything that goes to make up a razzle-dazzle style of game. Doing the hulk of the hall carrying for the Muhlenherg aggregation were Bossick and Gor- gone. These two boys put on a show all their own. In the first quarter a punt return by Bossick put the ball deep in G-Burg territory, setting the stage for the first Muhlenberg score, which occurred after a series of running plays. The second quarter saw a well- organized Muhlenberg running and passing attack swing into action. Three completed forwards in suc- cession put the hall on the Gettysburg 15-yard marker, from whence well-concealed running plays, engineered chiefly by Gorgone, witnessed the second six-pointer for the Julianmen. A very weH-executed trick play in the last period, a triple lateral, was good for eighty yards and the final Muhlenberg counter of the after- noon. G-Burg found its attack throttled throughout the entire tilt. Gettysburg finally snapped its prolonged losing streak on November 9th at the expense of the Ursinus Bears in a contest played on the Collegeville gridiron. The Kellett-coached outfit put up very stubborn resistance to the Bullets every inch of the way. Gettysburg's of- fensive play was rather spotty during the whole game, but it managed to Click at some very opportune m0- ments with well-executed plays. G-Burg drew first scoring blood when Hank Burman booted a perfectly placed field goal between the uprights in the first pe- riod. Led by Paul Augustine, whose talented throwing arm kept the G-Burg defense constantly in a dither, the Bears scored the first touchdown on a pass by this I1621 wummv nuns .,a.A individual into the end zone. Nothing daunted, the Breamites came surging back in the second half to record a six-pointer of their own when Joe Stock plunged across the goal line from the five-yard stripe after a sustained march of 55 yards. In the final quar- ter the Battlefielders unleashed a powerful ground at- tack that netted another touchdown. This final scrring thrust came about in this manner: Stock took the ball and lateraled wide to Hardy, who heaved a long for- ward pass into arms of Shoemaker, who was standing in the end zone. Bucknell's Bisnns once again sounded the defeat note for the Gettysburg eleven when they trounced the Bul- lets. After a hotly contested first half, when neither side could gain much advantage, the men of Hum- phrey stepped out of their defensive role in the second half to take most of the offensive play away from the tiring Brenmites. George Boner, Bueknell's hard-Charg- ing fullback, and Fred Fahringer, wiry little quarter- back for the Lewishurg outfit, proved to he the princi- pal thorns in the side of the locals during the entire contest. Especially Fahringer's brilliant second half performance contributed in no small measure to the Bison win, 0n the kickoH, after Bucknell had regis- tered its tint touchdown, Howard Shoemaker gathered the hall in and set sail through the entire Buekneil team 83 yards for a touchdown for one of the longest scoring gallops of the season. Shoemaker had perfect blocking 0n the play, and although the Bullets seemed to take on more spirit for the remainder of the hrst half, the worst was yet to come. Midway in the third quarter Fahringer took a reverse from VVenrich and scampered around end from the Gettysburg 15-yard stripe for the score. A few minutes later, Jesse Mair, lanky Bucknell terminal man, took an aerial from the hand of Fahringer and sprinted untouched across the doubie stripes to end the scoring of the day, Bucknell leading, 20-7. The annual windup battle between Gettysburg and Dickinson was played this year on the greenswnrd 0f the large Hershey Stadium before a Thanksgiving Day crowd of some 6,000 spectators who saw the Battlefield lads emerge victorious over their traditional rivals, 26-7. From the opening gun the Bullets wasted little time in going to work on the Red Devils in a most impressive manner. Led by Geiter, Hardy, Shoemaker, Sherman, and Florsheim, the Bullets completely domi- nated play throughout the entire contest. Starting the first period, the men of Bream put on display a sus- tained drive of 70 yards for a touchdown before the Red Devils even got their hands on the pigskin. In the second period, with Fred Geiter and Howard Shoe- maker knifing through the enemy line, the Bullets started another drive, this time good for 65 yards and the score, with Geiter crashing over from the three- yard stripe after a series of line plunges. In the mean- time the Kah'lermen found the going exceedingly tough in every department of the game. Their sole offensive threat was a talented sophomore lad, Paul Gorse, whose talented kicking toe kept the Carlisle men out of more trouble than they might otherwise have experienced. In the second half Coach Hen Bream unveiled one very able hall carrier in the person of Harold Sher- man, who had heretofore confined his talents to an obscure blocking role. Sherman repeatedly tore off long runs during the fray, ably aided by AI Hart, in- spirational sophomore blocking back who was instru- mental in paving the way for many of the touchdowns throughout the season. The lone Dickinson six-pointer came in the last period, when Florsheim's pass intend- ed for Burman was intercepted on the Gettysburg 4.5 and returned to the Gettysburg eight. From this point :1 series of line plunges gave Dickinson its face-saving score. This victory over Dickinson gave G-Burg pos- session of the Little Brown Bucket for the third year in succession.

One of the most successful seasons in history was recorded by this year,s soccer team, with a record of seven wins, two losses and one tie. Opening the year at Penn State, Coach Hen Springeris men lost a hard fought 3-1 decision to the booters from upstate. In view of the Nittany Lions team record of eight straight undefeated seasons, the goal posted by the Bullets was in itself an achievement. Following this initial setback, the Orange and Blue hooters chalked up four successive wins. Bucknell fell by the wayside 3-2, and Johns- Hopkins and Navy were beaten by identical scores of 2-1. Western Maryland, always a thorn in the side of G-Burg teams, was defeated, 4-0. , In the traditional game with Franklin and Marshalis Diplomats, the attack bogged down at critical moments, and the game ended in a 1-1 deadlock. Following this came the last setback of the year, when the star-studded I164l Temple team upset the Springermen 2-0 in a game that was marked by sterling defensive play. Playing host to the Red Devils from Dickin- son, the booters had a field day, and romped in with a 4-0 victory. Determined to avenge the previous season,s one-point defeat, the soccer- men travelled to the University of Delaware, and managed to outplay their hosts to the tune of 3-1. Closing the season on the home field before the largest crowd of the season, Coach Spring- e195 proteges easily won over the Ursinus Beats by a 3-1 count. Perhaps the surprise player of the team was Wally Kane, sturdy center forward, who in his sophomore year became the team,s highest scorer. Other newcomers to the starting team were Tom Wallace at outside right, and Quent Garman at halfback. These newcomers worked in well with the wealth of material left from previous seasons. The rest of the starting lineup consisted of Cox, halfback; Muhlenberg, halfback; Miller and Menoher, fullbacks; Spangler, inside right; F. Mizell, inside left; H. Mizell, outside left; and Fite, goalie. Captain Bill Muhlenberg, stellar center half- back, was selected on the All-East first soccer eleven, and both the Mizell boys, Spangler, and Jerry Miller were selected as alternates, and on many all-opponent teams. Next year the soccer team will sorely miss those stalwarts who have been the mainstays of the team for the past three campaigns. In bidding farewell to Howard Mizell, Quentin Garman, Ross Menoher, Jerry Miller, Bill Muhlenberg, and Ken Spangler, Gettysburg is losing some of the finest soccer players that ever donned an Orange and Blue uniform. Any team that loses six out of the starting eleven players cannot have too great hopes for the coming season, especially when they are players of the calibre of these, however, indica- tions do not look too dark because the coach will have Kane, Wallace, Cox, Fite, and Fred Mizell to use as a nucleus for next year,s eleven. These together with such reserves as Hoch, Todd, Zumbrum, and DeYoe, together with several promising freshmen candidates should prove to be an eleven that will give a good account of itself. Firs?

The Orange and Blue court squad wound up the season with an even record of nine up and nine down for a .500 percentage. How- ever, of the nine defeats suffered, only two were dealt the Bullets on the home boards. Opening up the year on the home boards, the Bullets pulled a surprise when they defeated the fast-stepping Albright Lions by a count of 35-30. Albright had been rated highly in some quarters, and the Battlehelders were supposed to be a soft touch for them, but events did not turn out as expected. I167J Playing the next three games away from home, the Orange and Blue lost two while win- ning one. Traveling to Collegeville to engage the Ursinus Bears, the locals were sadly off their game and lost a heart-breaker by 30-29. Navy was the next team to sink the Bullets, accomplishing this by a score of 36-25. Determined to snap their losing streak, the local courtmen journeyed to Carlisle to encoun- ter what was touted to be the best Dickinson team in years, but they were an easy mark for the aroused Battlehelders and fell by a count of 46-19. Lebanon Valley was the second home oppo- nent and managed to win a close game to the tune of 36-31 after a close battle throughout. During the mid-year vacation, the team played the Green Terrors of Western Maryland and emerged victorious, 36-24. This win evened the ledger at three victories and three losses. Returning to league competition with the advent of the second semester, the locals suf- fered a poor first period against Muhlenbetg, and although they outscored the Mules for the last three periods, they went down to a 44-38 defeat. In a game on the home boards, iiStretch Trimmer once again picked on his i'favorite enemies? the Bisons from Bucknell, and man- aged to outfight them in two extra periods and win, 47-46, after being six points behind with only one minute and twenty seconds to play. Trimmer managed to score 19 points before the evenings festivities were ended. On a week-end tour to Reading and Bethle- hem, the locals earned one decision over the Lehigh Engineers, but they dropped another league encounter to the Albright Lions. IIGRJ Gettysburgk traditional enemies, the Diplo- mats of Franklin and Marshall, were the next opponent, and showed the Bullets why they were the defending champions by completely outclassing the troubled Bullets by a score of 40-23. The touring Rutgers team made its appear- ance on the local court February 15, and a close game provided the onlookers with plenty of thrills. In a see-saw battle that saw the lead change hands many times before the final gun, the locals triumphed, 31-29. Playing the second game of the campaign with the Lebanon Valley quintet, the Orange and Blue courtsters played well but could not match the last period thrust of the Dutchmen and succumbed, 31-28. Gaining some measure of revenge for the close defeat at the begin- ning of the season, the Bullets really gave the Ursinus Beats 3 going over in the home gym and won an easy 49-31 contest. iiDoggif Julian,s Muhls were the next to feel the sting of the revamped Gettysburg quin- tet and went down to a 31-27 defeat in a close game. This victory marked the first time of the year that the Battlefielders had been able to tally two successive triumphs. In the return encounter with Dickinson, the Red Devils put up a better showing than they had in the first meeting of the year, but this was still not good enough to win, and Coach Hen Bream,s charges once again emerged vic- torious, this time by a 39-37 score. With a patched-up lineup, the locals invaded the lair of the Bisons, and lost by a count of 39-31. Trimmer personally counted 21 points, but the rest of the Bullet offense was sadly in need of a scoring touch. Closing the year in the usual way, against Franklin and Marshall, the Battlefielders threw a scare into the cocky Diplomats, who had al- ready clinched the league championship, and climbed to within four points of the league leaders midway in the fourth canto, but the Nevonians kept ahead for the remainder of the contest and won out, 45-41. This contest marked the last game for QiStttetch,i Trimmer and Harry Simon, both of whom played well throughout the entire cam- paign and will be sorely missed when next has- ketball season rolls around. The starting lineup for the Bullets at the close of the year found RMO,, MurtoE at cen- ter, Trimmer and Haas in the forward posts, and Bill Martin and Bill Everhart at the back- court positions. Several other players who saw considerable action throughout the year were Charley Falk- ler, Bobby Buyer, Harry Simon, Russ Sohn- leitner, and Don Kern. The other players on the squad were How- ard Shoemaker, Wally Kane, and Warren Swope. I169! .-VW,MMF744 A $142 LW Top Row: Coach Beeson. Heim, Fryling, Leaman, Holzman. Mgr. KeIIer.

Second Il701 Minus the services of six of the eight grapplers who comprised last year,s varsity, the Orange and Blue wrestling team began their third year of in- tercollegiate competition as a major sport, their offense being built around Champion Sam Bes- ecker, Hen Schwartz, and Don Kaiser, men of former varsity experience. Fortunately the jav-vee squad lived up to all expectations, and with McLaughlin, Romagna, Hart, and Fryling filling the gaps left by the Seniors, the Beesonmen primed themselves for the season opener with Brooklyn Polytechnic Institute at New York. Losing only one match, the local boys took the metropolitan lads to camp in a romp, with the final tally reading 28-6 in favor of the Battlefield aggregation. The following day, however, all hope was shate tered for an undefeated season, as the Bullets went down to defeat at the rough hands of C. C. N. Y. in a scrap that found Gettysburg with one fall, to make the final score, 21-5. Making their third straight road trip, the slow- ly improving outht was jolted at the delight of Haverforcfs mat contingent, 21-15, in an excit- ingly close contest which was not decided until the final bout was completed. Settling down for a quiet week end at home, the grapplers entertained a band of Crimson and Gray Allentown Mules, with dire results for the clan Muhlenburg, who could gain only six points against our lads. Heeding the call of the open road, the locals journeyed to Philadelphia, where they lost to Temple by the same six-point margin that spelled defeat for them at Haverford. Still on the move, the squadis next place of reconnaissance was Easton, where the greatly im- proved Battlehelders saw Lafayette gain victory by the slimmest of slim margins, the scoreboard reading: Gettysburg, 14; Lafayette, 16. Spending another delightful week end at home, the Beesonites walloped the grizzly Ursinus Bears, dropping one encounter, to have the visitors take back to Collegeville the record of a 35-5 shel- lacking. Continuing their winning ways, the Beesonmen walloped a veteran University of Maryland octet, gathering thirty-five points to the Terrapinsi weak three, while the final tilt of the year found the wearers of the liGi, winning every bout to blank the hapless Johns Hopkins crew. Sweeping through the first days preliminaries, the Battlefielders qualified seven men for the semi- final matches to be held the following day. With four participants going into the final bouts of the competition, the Orange and Blue, represented by Besecker and Schwartz, gained two individual championships. When the final computations were made, the Gettysburg team was second to Haverford, her early season nemesis; however, the Beesonites were successful in gaining ten falls and also in losing only one by a fall. Further honors were gained by the locals when Sam Besecker was proclaimed the outstanding performer of the contest. MILLER'S MERMEN ROSTER HARERLEN, I.. W. HARGEIRODE, J. A. ISSING, D. PACKARD, H. W.

Without the services of Jim Rider, last year's stellar sprint man, the Orange and Blue tankmen entered their second year of intercollegiate competition with all indications of a good season. Opening the schedule by playing host to Temple University, the local aggregation, by virtue of Issing's triumph in the breast stroke, garnered only one first place to be smothered by a 48-18 count. Traveling to the University of Delaware, the local mermen again met defeat, with Thorlakson, Gross Is- sing and Ziegler gaining points for the losers. The Thorlakson, Ziegler, and Gross combination teamed up to remind the Lafayette Leopards that Get- tysburg was in the contest, too; however, the visitors wound up on the very long end of a 54-16 score.

With the final Count being 45-30, the Soldiers nabbed their second triumph of the season, defeating Dickin- son in a match that saw no spectacular events.

DIAMOND DOINGS IN 1940 THE BASEBALL SEASON Starting slowly, the Bullet diamond nine failed to get out of the rut and as a result ended a season of baseball for Gettysburg with only four wins as against nine losses. The season opened with three straight setbacks. Wesleyan defeated the locals 6-4 on opening day, shelling Ralph Cox from the mound in the second inning with a four-run barrage. This game was curtailed by rain. Traveling to Temple, the Bullets lost their sec- ond game when the Owls pounded out a 14-6 triumph. After a week of rain, Villanova gave the Plankmen a 13-0 drubbing, the locals garner- ing only five hits OH Hewlett. At Bucknell, G-Burg tasted victory for the first time, defeating the Bisons 8-4 behind the steady flinging of Hardy and the no-hit relief hurling of Cox. The Bullets made it two straight by de- feating Lehigh 9-3 with Cox giving up only five bingles. Washington College put an end to the short winning streak by eking out a 2-0 win. Hardy was the losing pitcher but was deserving of better fate after allowing only four hits to the Mary- landers. On Sub-Freshman Day, the Plankmen hit their stride again and upset Penn State 2-1 in ten innings. Baldy,l Hamilton drove in the winning run with a timely hit in the tenth canto. Behind six-hit hurling by Jim Hardy, the Bullets defeated Juniata 4-2 to run their vic- tories to four. However, in the first of the annual series between the two schools, Dickinson put an end to the hopes of a good season by cramping the BattlefieldeHs style with a ten-inning 7-6 victory. Muhlenberg, after trailing for four innings, came from behind and slugged out a 14-11 win. This game featured the home runs of Shoemaker and Simon for the Plankmen. In another tight ball game, the Bullets dropped a close 2-1 decision to Dickinson. Ralph Cox gave only five hits, but his mates could not hit well enough to win. The Red Devils swept the season,s series by shellacking the local 10-3 in the final meeting. Hardy and Cox did the pitching. In the final contest of the year, Lafayette de- feated the Plankmen 4-3. Cox again went the distance for the losers, but weak hitting proved costly. Although the season was not as successful as desired, many of the losses could be attributed to the fact that Coach Plank was continually shifting his men to different positions in order to present a more formidable lineup and keep an eye toward the future. Since all of the men with the exception of Ham- ilton and Bender, were juniors and sophomores, an invulnerable diamond team should take the field in 1941. 11741 I940 RECORD April 3-Gettysburg- April 63Gettysburg- April 13-Gettysburg, April 17-Gettysburg, April 19-Gettysburg, April ZO-Gcttysburg, April 243Gettysburg - April 27-Gettysburg - April 30-Gettysburg - May l-Gettysburg - May 4-Gettysburg .

THOMAS Handicapped by a sparsity of good material, the Orange and Blue cindermen experienced a very disastrous season which netted them a total of one win as against five losses. 1n the opening event of the year, the Haver- ford squad, undefeated in seven years, easily trounced the Bullets t0 the tune of 91-35. Only Bill Everhart 0f the Battlefield squad was able to break through and win a first place. He copped firsts in both the 100 and 220-yard dashes. Traveling to XVestminster to face the Terrors of Western Klaryland, the Beesonites came through with their only win of the Campaign, winning by a 60-42 count. Everhart and Mizell were double winners for Gettysburg, and quhlenberg, BIC- Laughlin, and Day, all came through with wins in their specialties. Johns Hopkins furnished the next opposition for the Bullets, and the Hopkinsmen emerged on the long end of a 77-49 score. Everhart and Hangsterfer were outstanding for Gettysburg. The Conference, meet, held in Lancaster, was a two-team fight between the F. CK' M. and 311th- enberg teams, with the Battlefielders Finishing a poor third. However, Gettysburg had the out- standing individual performer of the meet in Everhart, who set two new conference records. He set a mark of 9.8 in the century, and 21.4. in the furlong. The team scores for the meet were as follows: F. CK' lVI. 60 1-2, lVIuhlenberg 55, Gettysburg 16, Drexel 15 1-2, and Ursinus 7. In a dual meet with the Nlules 0f lVIuhlenberg. the Bullets encountered their stiffest opposition of the campaign, and went down to an overwhelm- ing 99-27 defeat. Bill Everhart came through with his customary two firsts in the dashes, and BIizell tied for first in the broad jump, but the team as a whole was too weak to cope with the powerful B'Iuhlenberg outfit. In the closing meet at the season, at home against Dickinson, the Battleheltiers went down to an 82 1-2-43 1-2 loss. Everhart, lIizell, and quhlenberg were the only Bullets to take first place. Throughout the year, Bill Everhart, sensa- tional freshman Speedster, was the high scorer of the team with 60 points-IO in each of the six meets. TlHuck RIizell, high and broad jumper, finished second in the scoring class with a total of 33 1-2 points. The rest of the squad was strung out behind the two leaders as follows: Day 26, Hangsterfer 22, lVIuhlenberg 18, Bender 15, Diekensheets 14, Garret 14, Ezekiel 9, NIcLaugh- lin 9, Diedrickson 3, Hart 3, Barret 2, Raby 1, and Stock 1. Coach Pete Beeson expects that with the addi- tion of several promising freshmen, next year's team will give a good account of itself.

CANNY COURTMEN Finishing strong after a rather weak start, Gettysburghe varsity tennis team ended a success- ful court season with six wins and four losses. With the scheduled opening day match with Lehigh on April 13 postponed by rain, the Bul- lets ofhcially started the year by dropping a well- played 6-3 match to Swarthmore. 11Redsn Henry and Quent Garman captured their doubles match, while Clint Hendrickson disposed of his singles opponent in straight sets, 6-1, 6-1. Hendrickson and Smith later combined to win another doubles set-to. The Bullets played aIl-around good tennis to easily defeat Haverford. 6-1, in a match cut short by rain. Clint Hendrickson, Bullet No. I man, led the attack on the H averford courtsmen. Myers. German. Koons. Henry. Hendrickson, Smith, Manager Konhaus. llluhlenberg was scheduled to appear on the local courts on April zrx but again rain inter- veiled. Penn State walloped the Bullets, 8-1, in their next match. Badly outclassed by their Nittany rivals, the Battlefielders lost several close ones before Sam Koons and Eddie lVIyers teamed up for a nice doubles triumph. The locals hit their stride against the Bucknell Bisons as they won 7-2 on the Lewishurg courts. Featuring the play of Hendrickson. Smith, Hen- ry, Koons. and Garmair the Bullets made a sweep of all but two matches. This match also featured the debut of freshman Eddie lVIacBean as a varsity racquetman, as he won his match easily in straight sets, 6-1, 6-3. After the match with Ursinus here had been cancelled. the Bullets traveled to Johns Hopkins and dropped their third decision, 6-3. Hendrick- son and Koons kept up their good work by tak- ing their individual matches. Bill NIcKee and Koons teamed to take :1 doubles match that gave the Bullets their third point. Western NIaryland was the next victim as Doc Glennls proteges recovered their poise and trounced the Terrors, 8-1. Only llReds Henry was unlucky enough to drop his singles match for the Bullets' only loss. This match gave the locals 3 up and 3 down, with 5 to go. Wet grounds prevented the next scheduled match with F.-WI., and Western Maryland again the Westminster dropped to Gettysburg 0n courts, 6-3. Clint Hendrickson went right on I1791 winning to make this his sixth victory in seven starts. Henry and Garman also took their matches handily, while Bill NICKee made his first appearance as a singles starter by easily winning. The Bullets downed Dickinson, 6-3, to rack up their fifth win and their third straight vic- tory. Everyone on the squad except Garman and NIyers cleaned up in both singles and doubles to make this an easy Bullet win. Lancaster was the scene of the locals' last defeat as they fell a victim to a smooth Diplo- mat outfit, 5-4. F.-VI. held the upper hand in singles, as only Henry and Koons pulled their matches out of the fire. The Koons-Henry and Hendrickson-Smith combines took victories in the doubles matches, but couldn't quite make up the singles losses. In the season finale, the Glennmen polished off Dickinson, 6-3. Clint Hendrickson and Sam Koons ended their senior year in a blaze of glory to lead the Bullets to a successful finish. Holding over good Junior and Sophomore material from last year, the outlook for 1941 is bright. Although losing such stellar performers as Clint Hendrickson, Sam Koons, and llReds Henry, the team should not be weakened because of good reserve strength. Taintor Smith and Quent Garman should be the leaders of this years outfit, while Bill McKee, Eddie Myers, and Eddie NIaCBean, who showed plenty of promise last year, should come in for their share of wins.

The team opened the year with 21 7V; to 1V; win over Dickinson. Manges and Buyer led the Bullets, and the match was never in doubt. Western Maryland played here on May 1, and fell a victim to the locals, 5V: to 3V2, in a close match. The fine play of Todd and Manges helped the Bullet cause immensely. In the first match with F. and M., the Diplo- mats handed G-burg their initial loss, 6-3. King, Nix, and Todd won their matches for the Bullets. The Battlefielders on their next outing dropped 7-2 to Western Maryland in a return match. Only Manges and Todd managed to salvage best ball matches, while Leon Todd captured his individual match. Against Dickinson, the team recovered their victory spark and triumphed easily, 7-2, to sweep the series with the Red Devils. Ed Allen paced the Bullets to this victory. In the finale, though, F. and M. took the Bul- lets, 7V; to 1V2, which gave the G-burg linksmen an even break for the season. In the past two years, golf has become more and more successful as a college sport. Since its innovation as a minor sport it has increased much in popularity on the campus and it is expected that in the years to come Gettysburg will have a fine representation on the links.

Coach Gelberr, FROSH Although hampered by injuries to key men at crucial points throughout the season, Coach Charley Gelbertfs freshman football team en- joyed a season that was by no means the worst on record. Opening the year October 25, the yearlings played host to a strong aggregation from Franklin and Marshall, and bowed by a score of 7-0. The Blue and White neophytes scored early in the first period, and in spite of re- peated advances by the Baby Bullets, the game ended with G-Burg on the short end of the count.

Welliver, March BABY BULLE This past season saw the Gettysburg College fresh- man basketball team complete one of the most success- ful campaigns of any quintet ever to represent the Battlefield institution. Victors in twelve straight games, the yearlings com- piled the enviable record of 528 points for an average score of 44 counters per game. On the other hand, their opponents were limited to a mere 285 tallies for :1 22-point per contest average. Opening up the season with Tresslers Orphans School, the frosh ran wild to score an impressive 63-18 victory before a cheering home crowd. Next followed the first of two games with Dickinson, and while the trash took some time to get started, they finished up strongly to win by a 33-17 count. Lebancn Valley's hith'erm undefeated squad of neo- phytes were the next aggregation to fall victims to Coach Bream's neophytes, succumbing by a 39-28 count. In a game played at Westminster during the semester vacation, the undefeated record was kept in- tact with a rough 42-26 win over the Green Terrors. Starting the second semester, the yearlings really started to roll and notched successive victories over Littlestown, 57-26; Franklin and Marshall, 51-29, al- though they had to score 23 points in the last period to do it, and Glen Rock, 46-32. Meeting Lebanon Valley in an away game, the Orange and Blue encountered their stiffest opposition of the campaign, but finally triumphed, 23-20, by vir- T H831 BASKETMEN me of a thrilling last period rally. As if to atone for their poor showing in the last game, the team opened their big guns early against the boys from Perkiomen and kept up a constant barrage at the enemy baskets that netted them a well-earned 51-13 victory. Dentsco, the last of the three independent fives from York, proved to be no trouble at all, and the locals emerged on the long end of a 46-27 score. Playing the Red Devils from Dickinson for the second time, the Battlefielders once more emerged victorious, this time by a count of 36-23. In the season finals, on the home courts before a capacity crowd, the frosh found themselves six points behind the F. and M. neophytes before they had scored a tally, but smooth floorwork and excellent passing soon wiped out this deficit, and the Bee Bees ramped to an easy 44-22 triumph. Throughout the season, the team that started most of the games consisted of Monte Pearson and Eli Nen- adovich at forwards, Tony Yovicsin at the pivot post, and Cal VVelliver and George Draeha holding down the back court. While these were the starting players in the major- ity of the contests, there were several other players that deserve credit for helping to complete the first undefeated season in the history of Gettysburg basket- ball. The rest of the squad consisted of Charles Olsen, Elmer McKee, Ken Trimmer, Dick March, Hen Stick, Wayne Bucher, and Don Roberts. CLAYTON E. BILHEIMER Afhlefic Director Athletics at Gettysburg are administered ac- cording to a welI-baianced program, which con- sists of both varsity and junior varsity sports and a schedule of intramural, interfraternity and inter- club competition. Since this program is recognized as an integral part of undergraduate life, the regulations that govern athletic activity on the part of the student are such as will prevent that activity from be- coming a possible source of demoralization to the student body and from interfering with the pri- mary work of the institution. Thus the responsibility for the efficient han- dling of this policy is vested in an assembly which is comprised of faculty, alumni, and undergradu- ate representatives, and is known as the Athletic Council. Arranging for the various team schedules, and the involved financial requirements, is one of the l184J ATHLETIC COUNCIL ?EORGE HL'MMEI. :llumni Rrprrsrniafirve, Prrsidrnt HARRY H. BEIDLEMAN, D.D.

HENRY T. BREAMiS saga is one of the local boy who came back to the institution from which he graduated to make good in a big way. Hen, as head football and basketball coach, has compiled a most enviable record in these departments of sports since he came to Gettysburg. That C- Burg,s teams are always characterized by their clean play and sportsmanlike attitude speaks well for this guiding hand behind the scenes. Down through the years, Bream has continued his policy of building and moulding men as well as estab- lishing records that can be pointed at with pride. HAROLD BEESON is the very able and competent football assistant of Coach Bream, under whom he teaches the gridsters the inside of line play. In his own right, however, Beeson has been particu- larly effective as head mentor of the wrestling and track squads, consistently producing teams that verify his ability to handle men and prowess as a coach. CHARLES GELBERT, well known in athletic cir- cles as a major and minor league baseball per- former, this year finished his second season as head coach of the freshman gridiron hopefuls. In addition to his coachingirole, Gelbert does some very efficient scouting for the local gridiron strategy board. IRA PLANK, who has served many long and honorable years as head diamond mentor of the local institution, might aptly be termed the dean of the coaching staff from the point of years in service. Ira is the brother of the immortal Eddie, who was known and loved by millions for his baseball prowess and personality. Ira, who starred on the mound himself, has since established an enviable record as baseball coach at G-Burg. CLINT HENDRICKSON, veteran Senior netman who had performed so capably for many years as a member of the local court squad, assumed the temporary mentorship of the G-Burg court- llSSI BEESON BREAM men in the absence of regular coach Dr. John G. Glenn. Acting in this capacity, Hendrickson did a tnost commendable job. HENRY SPRINGER, a graduate from Gettysburg and former soccer player himself, this year took over the coaching reigns of the Gettysburg soccer team in the absence of William D. Harshome. Springer presented a formidable array of hooters who earned for themselves one of the best records ever compiled by a Gettysburg soccer club. JOHN MILLER, internationally known as the producer of championship swimming teams and recognized hereabouts as the coach of the Met- cersburg Academy swimming team, this year took charge of the Gettysburg mermen and contributed immeasurably towards elevating that sport into a prominent light at this institution. EARL ZIEGLER, an all-around athlete while at- tending Gettysburg, now has the duty of direct- ing women,s athletics in addition to his teaching work. In this line he has done much towards pro- moting a better rounded sports program for the co-eds. GELBERT ..1 Phi Delta Theta defended their 1939 mushball cham- pionship successfully by defeating Phi Kappa Psi, 2-1, in the playofl game. After Phi Psi had defeated them 3-1 in the regular season, Phi Delt rallied behind the superb pitching of Bob Shaw to capture the remainder of their games and turn the tables on the runners-up. Phi Psi started by losing the first game of the season to Sigma Chi, but ended the season strong, paced by the hurling of Gale Flinehbaugh and the stickwork of Ed Allen. After the leaders came Sigma Chi, Lambda Chi, and Phi Cam in that order. Capturing second place in mushball cinched the beautiful interfraternity sports trophy for Phi Kappa Psi. Phi Psi, during the 1939-1940 season, took a first in basketball, seconds in football, volleyball, and mush- hall, and a third in swimming. Phi Gamma Delta, Phi Delta Theta, and Phi Sigma Kappa all ran Close competition to the winners, but were not quite so con- sistent in all sports. Greek sports for 1940-41 opened with Phi Delta Theta winning the touch football crown decisively without a single loss. A powerful passing and running attack combined to give Phi Delt a high-seoring ag- gregation. Featuring the heaving of Bob Buyer and the scoring ability of Jack Davis, the Delts piled up top-heavy scores right along and were never even seri- ously threatened with defeat. Phi Gamma Delta fin- ished in the number two slot with one loss and two ties, one each with Sigma Chi and Phi Psi. Phi Gam also successfully defended its volleyball crown and finished one full game ahead of the second place Phi Sigs. Phi Psi and Phi Delt finished in a tie for third. Finishing this year undefeated gave the Fijis the unique distinction of not having lost a single game of any match for the past two years. This sea- son, Phi Gam featured the spiking of elongated Stretch NTRA -MURAL Trimmer and the nice backline play of Quent Garman and Bill VValtemyer. Ralph Cox and Bob Garrett were outstanding for the Sigs, who won all the rest of their games handily but were no match for the Champions. In a hntly-eontesttd race, Phi Cam came through to win the basketball crown. After losing to the Phi Sigs, 294+, in an early season thriller, the Fijis, sport- ing a fast, hard-playing outfit, came back strong to defeat Phi Delt and Phi Psi, their closest rivals. Phi Delt finished in a tie for first, but lost the playoff when Phi Gam won, this time by a 16-13 count. Ph'i Psi and Phi Sig ended the season tied for third, each with two losses. Scoring one of the biggest upsets of the year, Phi Kappa Psi nosed out Phi Cam and SAE to cop the 194.1 swimming championship. Featuring a fine group of freshmen, Phi Psi piled up points in all the relays and in the breaststroke and backstroke events. Big Al Hill captured the backstroke event for the third con- secutive year. Phi Gam, who finished the night with 21 V2 points to 25V; for the leaders, took most of their laurels in the dash events. SAE was also represented well in all events and garnered 19 markers. Probably the most outstanding individual effort of the evening was made by Sam Shoemaker 0f KDR, who took two firsts and a second to rack up 10V2 points. Since its inception two years ago, the interfraternity sports program has taken its place among the leading activities on the campus. All the inferior spots and the shortcomings of the year before were overcome by Prof. Johnson and the other members of the intra- mural sports board and, of course, the program func- tioned much more smoothly this year. With the coming years, it is hoped that this program will arouse even more enthusiasm. The presentation of the interfrater- nity sports trophy to the leading fraternity in all sports has become the goal of every house on the campus. SPORTS Phi Kappa Rho captured the mushball crown to end the first successful organized season of independent intramural sports at Gettysburg College. Commandeered by the intramural sports committee under the chairmanship of Prof. Lester 0. Johnson, the independent loop functioned well, with four teams comprising the league, three of them led by student managers. Ending the season with six wins and n0 defeats, Phi Kappa Rho was out in front by two games when mushball hostilities ceased. Jack Eastlack's team tin- ished runner-up with four wins and two losses, both to Phi Kappa Rho. Nate Sklar's and Moon WaltersJ teams finished third and fourth, respectively. Complete with two new managers and featuring a team representing the Old Dorm frosh, besides Phi Kappa Rho, the independent grid 100p swung into action in mid-October, and Phi Kappa Rho came through to their second straight championship. Again the locals completed the schedule without a defeat, but were tied by both Thomas and Old Dorm. Bob Thomasl team finished second with four up, one down and one tie, while Nate Sklar ran third and Old Dorm finished last without any on the blue side of the ledger. Old Dorm finally managed to break the string of Phi Kappa Rho hrsts when they swept the league in the volleyball race without losing a single game of any match. Sklarls outfit took second, two full games back, with four wins and two losses. Thomas' finished third with two up and four down, while Phi Kappa Rho trailed with no wins and six losses. Dave Hoover took over Nate Sklar's team at semes- ters and promptly coached them to a well-earned bas- ketball championship. Finishing the season tied with Phi Kappa Rho, Hoover's outfit played fast, clean bas- ketball to whip the locals, 33-24., in the playoff to end a great seasonal rivalry. Fencing, as an intramural sport at Gettysburg, entled its first full season of play and laid the foundations for a future popular G-Burg activity. Organized principally by John Hall, senior fencing enthusiast, the sport was finally sanctioned by the in- I187l tramural board in mid-January. The committee au- thorized th'e fencers to obtain matches and later to hold an individual tournament here. Although not successful from a win and loss point of view, the players showed enthusiasm and much promise is held for the future. Led by Captain Hall and ably coached by Dr. Sun- dermyer, the fencers traveled to Lebanon Valley for their first match, losing 12-4. At York Y. M. C. A., they again fell a victim to one of the smoothest duel- ing outhts in southern Pennsylvania, 17-8. Playing host later to the the Bullets several weeks same team, dropped another match by the same count, Lebanon Valley dropped in 011 March 8 and trounced G-Burg, 15-1, to end the season for the Bullets. Captain Hall was the only consistent foilist on the squad, winning 11 out of 17 matches. Bill Shelley, Art Kramer, and John Kelso displayed plenty of ability with the blades, while Harris Fister, Dick Holsberg, and Roscoe Shank garnered valuable experience in this initial campaign. With good freshman material available and more experience coming all the time, fencing will undoubt- edly soon take its place among the other leading intra- mural sports.
