B E ARD The Gothic temple for savage Rhinies and swashbuckling Sophomores who eventu- ally move to Lloyd and, returning for la2y sun-baths, gaze in condescending pity upon its residents ... a monstrous cathe- dral of developing personality. V M t r ' . ' (r ' -.vr- Here is where Doc is the eternal master of ceremonies, now rubbing liniment over sore muscles, and tossing orders to harassed managers, now being cordial and gay as he dips into the dancers ' wassail-bowl. A weird place of eternal dusk, shivering under the cumulative v eight of a hun- dred and forty thousand volumes and countless hours of youthful toil, smug with accumulated wisdom, and musty and dolorous in the spring. A morose sort of building this, where the cold business of administration is carried on, where collections are often exceedingly dull, where a sizzling love letter of Keats lies buried, and where you finally graduate. n FACULTY SOME people ill tell the graduates of our American colleges this year that they are stepping out into a world which does not need them. There is some truth in this statement for the moment, but only in an economic sense. One cannot imagine a time in recent history when there was a greater need for the right kind of men who with intellectual equipment, supported by a dynamic faith in the Right and the True, are willing to devote themselves to the solution of problems in every field which are awaiting solution in an age of rapid change. Those who are able to retain proven essentials while adapting themselves to change •lll be able to render a service worthy of both praise and reward. I hope that many ot the Class of 1938, the largest class ever graduated at Haver- ford, are prepared to render |ust such a service as leaders in their respective communities. The College requires of them nothing more than this; it will be fulK ' satisfied with nothing less. William Wist. r Comfort. 17 D U u. H Wii.i.uM W. CoMiimr, AM., A.M., I ' li.l; .

GILBERT CONGDON WOOD Cape Cottage, Maine Biology Major 63 BUREAU OF VITAL STATISTICS SOUND MY BARBARIC YAWP DEPARTMENT: I am the spirit of the bomb and bucket boys preoccupied at col- lege with their adolescent joys. Don has a love of music, and a fighting football heart, a broad and firm foundation that sets him quite apart. Our guileless Bertie Reagan, in lis unassuming way, grins charming Irish magic to hold the class in sway. Yon cheerful, searching waiter with the lean and hungry look is naive Lawther Rich with his bill collecting book. And fiddle playing Herbie all music doth forsake as starving there at dinner he spears another steak. ' Tis from Foley, griping Foley, that I take my talking mood, bout Washington, titration, and the Clement brothers ' food. Through a window went Whitty ' s head, looking for a squirrel; what do you think he would have done, had it been a girl? The moral tone and will to work is Kershner ' s contribution, but hitting bed at two o ' clock is such a hard solution. Jim George is their pianist; w e share alike, he ' s saying, as off again to Harcum School for maids he goes foray- ing. They all can yawp, but none can sing. What peace to the college the future will bring! COBWEB DEPARTMENT: Who are they, reading books all day? Krie- bel, Mathues, Fraleigh and Hay. At storing up the wisdom of ages on their shelves, who is it makes us look so feeble? Hay, Fraleigh, Mathues and Kriebel. Who reads six books daily? Mathues, Hay, Kriebel and Fraleigh. In whose libraries can we find tips on French, historical advice, philosophical hints and math clues? — Guess. Of course, they also go to square-dances, play poker, run, and write editorials. There is something quaint and archaic and messy about any room they happen to live in, and round them is a certain vague something — call it, if you will, an appreciation of the vanity of transient things. Wi like to think of it as a veil of cobwebs. LIFE OF THE PARTY DEPARTMENT: It ' s all in the start you get. Bird began as a violinist, Clark loomed as a romantic hero of the stage, and Ranck was — well, you couldn ' t miss him. It was as natural for them to trickle together as three drops upon a window pane, and what a splash they made! Ostensibly they spent Senior year in 12 Lloyd, but ah! the wind was in the palm trees and ' twas there that they would be, with a Burma (pronounced Bryn Mawr) girl a-settin ' , lookin ' lazy at the sea. 64 RAISED EYEBROWS DIPAR IMENl ' : Ck-mlcmcn with a weary sigh look upon Vtl entry ticn ol cynics gibbering neurotics where life is seldom iliill amkl ,1 Irolhing inaclslrom of stuffed rabbits flaming couches coke bottles and pickled snakes where W.

MENS SANA IN CORPORE SANO DEPARTMENT: It means— We are sane men and win Corp. scholarships all three of us, except Steere and Longnecker. But then Aub Dickson is a Math major, which is painfully easy, and besides, soccer develops the character. Does tennis? Nol Do ten gallon hats? No! Do women? Yes! I mean NO! Does economics? What a silly question. Anyway, we know what the world looks like. Ask Henry Clay, he knows. He ' s a day student. Ask Aubrey Cowtan, he knows. He read papers before the math club. Ask Jonathan Mowr -, he knows. He ' s a Quake. PACK UP YOUR TROUBLES IN YOUR OLD KIT BAG DEPART- MENT: Down in the Bug 7 room there is, my children, a kit bag labelled The Beautiful and Ornamental Troubles of Haig, G. Poole, and Simmons. There are lots of things in that bag that would fill the world with amazement. There are Chickadee ' s concrete submarines and his Mammouth South American Laundry Concern, two absurd old cars, and seventy-three defeated wrestling opponents. There are George ' s Record Board assignments — whoever did them, by the way? — and an awful number of old, unhappy, far-off physics problems. And finally there are Si s English papers (written at night and delivered in a fog), a select group of newspapers that the faculty never got, and four broken hearts. THE THUNDERING HERD DEPARTMENT: Fight, Fight, Fight, for we ' ve got to eat tonight, and we ' ll sure en)oy our dinner if we leave the [65] . z ttassjatasMUk. Iickl .1 vviiiiKr ' But llic lluinclcring licrJ wasn ' t restricted to Walton Field ,ukI iIk- liming h.ill Morian always saved enough energy to deliver papers .iiid keep vvcll in the swing of Main Line social functions. Val de Bcausset ' s motorcycle, chemical intricacies, and the frailty of women kept him busy day and night Ramsey helped keep Val awake in class, collected suits, and found relaxation in his duties as chief riot-mstigator. Bill Duff (pronounced Guil- launic ) wliip|- ci.l over to La hcllc Irance for a year and returned to toy with French 4, and to captain the Main Line Culture Club. We hated to see Bob Biirnskic slip from our midst, for while here he was an integral part of the Cx)llcgc. But when we think of Comprehensives we remember him best for his vision, foresight, and perspicacity. HO ' HUM DEPARTMENT: In New Lloyd ' s desolate end forlorn, ' round entries nine (and ten), there dwell aloof in exquisite scorn, three saddened and bitter men. Bleak Currie (W. S. we mean) scuds palely through the night, to throw an Irish dart or two, most distressing, quite. Less sunk in Welt- schmerz ' purple crater, is Wilson, owl egg incubator. (The News Poll ' s handsomest man has done his bit for Alma Mater.) Harrison ' s thoughts on Haverford are fruity and bizarre, but he ' s outwardly a healthy squash and intramural star. Try entry nine some time for size. . . . You ' ll come away with bulging eyes, filled with invincible surmise. KULTUR DEPARTMENT: Teutonic noises rumble here and there, and quaint creatures in leather shorts manifest themselves. That ' s us. Well, Kid, first there ' s me — Bowman. I, I went to Munich last year — I mean, culture. . . . Lm pretty busy now with Bryn Mawr and the glee club, Kid. In Bellevue Hospital my Father. . . . (cut). While Baumann is talking, I ' ll creep m here — me. Jack Velte, clean and wholesome. Who ' ll have coffee, gang? Also — will you excuse me — Ich bin Dieter Ahrens. I have to America from Germany to be friendly and enlighten people come, geworden gehaben gehabt .sein. I have read yesterday a very interesting article in the newspaper. . . . DEPARTMENT OF SYNCOPATION AND SALUBRITY: Evans. Slease, and Hyde are a very jolly gang, and alive to all the merry charms of swing. They are rough and tough and hearty, and extremely love a party, and are really quite invaluable in nearly everything. Wingerd ' s very famous on the diamond and the court with an easy, graceful air that ' s really nifty. We ' re glad that he decided to adopt the five-year plan — the A. A. wishes he would make it fifty Brattan is a cyclist with the Maine woods in his heart, 167 1 and his laugh is like the breezes in the pines. Like the rest he ' s not mysterious and not especially serious, and really doesn ' t seem at all to class among the grinds. WHO ' S BEEN EATING MY PORRIDGE DEPARTMENT: Never satisfactorily answered even if one of the 4th Entry epicures found it in his bed — if he could find the bed. Welbourn, the Baltimore playboy, victim of a practical joking tyranny and scholastic pressure, but always smiling in the face of adversity. Pa ' w Carson, the class-cutter, ready and willing to get ten hours ' sleep, or to defend his rights against the referee and any six members of the opposing team. Taylor, of the Black Quake libel, body and soul for Westtown and Bryn Mawr, and willingly persecuted for traffic violations. Ebersol, scholar, manager, debater and twirler, prey of the fair sex, and possessed of a knack for stalling cars at opportune moments. Goldmark, Corp Scholar marvel and Coop Store whip-cracker, fond of the outdoor life and the manly art of fencing. Ligon with his car and his week-ends, and his inter- collegiate cricket batting championship. And Prindle, founder of The Society for the Destruction of Status Quo established by Robbins in 44 Sharpless Hall, and always willing to bear the brunt of Cap and Bells productions. DEPARTMENT OF UTTER CONFUSION: Two bipeds move through the underbrush. One flaps along disjointedly; the other, pink and bull-like, shambles powerfully in the rear. Oho, life is a thing of contrasts, evolutions, mutations. What have we got? Bell and Brown. The genus Bell froths and bubbles politics, photography, Germany, communism, etc. The genus Brown is at his best when mangling things, or pouring water, or steaming up and down a soccer field — or — well, thee knows Bull Brown anyway. MAMA THAT MOON IS HERE AGAIN DEPARTMENT: Hey hey, the rhythm boys! The walls of 11 Lloyd sag and quiver to the strains of T. Dorsey and B. Goodman, while often is heard hoarse laughter followed by feminine screams followed by more hoarse laughter followed by feet pounding on the stairs, feminine screams, laughter, screams, T. Dorsey, pounding feet, T. Dorsey until finally the impartial observer begins to lose his grip on things. Drag ' em out in the open air, tho, and they ' re human enough — Robbins, who commutes to Seattle on a motorcycle; Webb, Main Line smoothie; Sponsler, ditto and prom mogul, and Shank from Drexel, who is likewise an engineer. TOUJOURS GAI DEPARTMENT: Amos, a little man with a deep voice, is off to lend vocal assistance to the Glee Club or cheering sections, or [681 just (or a spell ol clovviiing arouiul. I.ightniii ' Aucott is busy speeding steam- ing trays Irom kiulicn to table. Give him time and he ' ll study his French, dash oil ih.il I ' li lisli p.ijicr, .1111.1 .irr.ingc for a ilatc on Friday night. Tom Watkins IS out irashing people around on the j ridiron or the mat. Life is certainly jolly. 1 hey d all get those reserve books at the library, only they ' re going to the second show in An.lmore because of that bridge game, and won ' t get back in time. . . Wake us up at 7:30, we ' ve a lot ol work to do. DEPARTMENT OF WHEELS AND COGS: First Mcllvain goes away for a week-end, and then Schramm goes away for a week-end, and then they both go. But during the interim Les takes pictures all over the place, while Mac IS ready and willing to hold forth in scientific discussions at all times. A well-geared system. WORDS OF ONE SYLLABLE DEPARTMENT: And then the day student creeping like a snail unwillingly to school, which is not true because they do not creep, they rush, and unwillingness is more the exception than the rule. Ol course we know that Cox and MacFarland are tenors which is not so bad really and that Mac manages the track and fencing teams and must be good because those are the two teams that win, and that Henry ' s love for Germany doesn ' t prevent him from being good at Yiddish dialect. And that Morse and Tatman and Sensenig are great admirers of Bryn Mawr and Morse even takes a course there so what could you expect? And Sensenig used to wear a very unusual moustache and got rid of it becau.se it cramped his style eating desserts which proves that Nature doesn ' t like to give two gifts to one man. ROCK OF AGES DEPARTMENT: Rock of Ages, that is we. Let us manage things for thee. Telling managed the Glee Club and the Haverfordian, and foiled everybody so well that they let him be on the fencing te am. Thomp- son endeared himself to us by piling up big News dividends — he ' s good, you should see him buying second-hand books for practically nothing. Harper, the mad monk, has done quite a spot of managing, too, and if he wasn ' t so fond of Dame Nature he ' d probably arrange things for her. And Clement handled the Charity Chest in good old this-is-the-way-we-sow-our-Quaker-Oats fash- ion, and managed to make the rest of the English majors feel, by comparison, lazier than ever. CHILD WELFARE DEPARTMENT: Downstairs 1st entrv looks pretty impressive on paper. The visitor, chilled to the marrow at the sight of that [69] bleak stinly room hnstlinj; uitli ticsks .iiul sonic live thous.irul books, is apt to say, Here is the abode ol stern young thinkers and bulging intellects. Soon, however, his trance is interrupted by animal noises and the sound of pennies falling into a tooth mug. The moral to be drawn is doubtful. Suffice to say, there are two sides to the 1st entry boys. Reading frcjin left to right there IS Montana Monty Evert ol the winning smile; Bailey, who also wrestles; Wesson, who has a way with ants; Firth, studious tjuibbler of the French Department; Pensyl, radio fiend, and Tom Benham, who combines electrical knowledge with a knack of crunching the ribs of the casual passer-by. LEND ME YOUR EARS DEPARTMENT: The Triumvirate cooperated in arguments ad crumcnam, ad hominem, ad vcrecundiam, and ad infinitum. They swept the Model League off its feet, bandied F. D. R. and his alphabet back and forth, and proved their points. Saylor used his Duke Mantee train- ing for an effective combination of brawn and brain. His intellectual assistance to Tom Cook was only just reparation for three years of double-dating in Cook ' s car. The interweaving of faculties was made complete by Kohn ' s polished and suave manner of disclosing an opponent ' s crass ignorance about everything. NON SEQUITUR DEPARTMENT: They live the life they love. Bill Luden whipped back and forth from L ' Abri to Center Barclay (of all places!) Boyd Lentz faithfully playing J. V. football for four years and help- ing Hugh Torrance hold the Evangelical League together. Hugh puts gravy on his ice-cream, but chacun a son goo. Dormon somehow escaped from a tramp steamer black gang to grab oft a Corp Scholarship, and Chambers estab- lished a Triple-Axis between Hood College, the Library, and Sharpless Hall. Dick Pakradooni looked good in both football and baseball until a girl and scholastic achievement took him away. George Peirce confounded Barclayites for several years with infernal chemical concoctions and then devoted himself to a station wagon, Bryn Mawr, and cordial dislike of this and that. But it was Bill Myer who really got the jump on us by going to the halter at the end of our Sophomore year. The yoke ' s on Bill now, while the rest of us are still footloose and fancv free.

O o X on W ACTIVITIES HAT you get out ol a liberal arts college is a pretty elu- sive thing, and extra-curricular activities fill a definite need lor something coiurctc hy which you can measure one aspect of that thing. Silently (and consequently, in the popular mind, efficiently) behind all our activities looms the Students ' Council. This year under Chairman Evans it functioned quite as silently and efficiently as ever; approving offices and petitions, pouring oil on troubled Rhinie fires, and appointing Bob Clement to direct another Charity Chest campaign. Credit for the most sensationally successful of recently revivified activities goes to the Debating Team. When the ' 38ers arrived on the Haverford cam- pus they found l rofessor Montgomery bordering on a nervous breakdown be- cause he thought that no one in the world had anything to say anymore. This state of affairs so touched the hearts of Louie Kohn, Til Saylor amd Sol Ebersol that they immediately went on a crusade to make the world safe for George Montgomery. And they succeeded, too, for oratory now plays a definite part in the Haverford scheme ol things. Surface indications of the new develop- ment have included chiefl) ' dining room announcements of debates on subjects ranging from the Desirability of Social Security to Is It a Man ' s World or a H K X.J |d sn — ' fl fc Kl Jfc JW STLiDENTS ' COUNCIL Seaui: Reagan, Dcrr, S.

Kohn [j lHI KSHj HI HjJI HH Woman ' s, one HM M I when two Swarthmore girls | .fl -3wv: DMB R were forced to hear the lads make merry about that WiUiams man, and vivid posters by the brothers Poole. A related success is that of the Model League of Nations. Led by Saylor and Kohn, a group of Professor Herndon ' s hopefuls this spring invaded Rutgers, presented the case of the debt-paying Finns, and quietly walked off with the award for Best in Show. The Cap and Bells Club also showed increased activity during the past year, and became thoroughly in ' censed at the general attitude of mild indifference with which the students re- ceived It. Although the Bryn Mawr Varsity Players officially divorced Haverford for Princeton, Bryn Mawrers acted unofficially in highly praised performances of Barrie ' s DuirBrutii.s and Wilde ' s Tlii- ImpiirtiiniY of BiiiigEiinu-st. Further, the old cus- tom of Freshman try-outs was resumed, but the college at large was kept in ignor- ance of whatever ability was shown by an admission by invitation only sign. The Glee Club, coached by Director Bentz and aided by student conductor Bird, accompanists Bow- man and Greer, and solo- ists Darlington and W. E. Velte, attracteci only a small audience at the Home Con- cert, but made up for it by receiving a great deal of praise for their work at Buck Hill Falls, Atlantic City, Bryn Mawr, a bevy of schools and churches, and their broadcast over the CBS network. MODEL LEAGUE OF NATIONS L. B, Kohn, Bell, McConnell, Cook, Saylor, Bready 78 GLEE CLUB The three honorary organizations were well represented by members of the Class of ' 38, and, without being very sensational about it, continued their good work in stimulating campus ambition and in making the graduates happy that they had once been Haverfordians. Founders ' Club had enrolled eight senior members by midyears. Its most notable accomplishments were drum- ming up alumni trade for the Musicale and giving an alumni reception and tea during the football season; its most astounding was introducing genuine breast of guinea fowl at its annual dinner. The Varsity Club, under President Taylor and Secretary Whittier, calmed down somewhat after it saw its pet idea of a compulsory three-year athletic program placed in operation and confined itself to giving a banquet and helping make life at Haverford seem attractive to prospective freshmen.

Just to be different, Amos Leib decided to bring mathematics down to the level of the masses. Thereupon he instituted the quaint custom of serving tea at his club meetings, invented the slogan U2 Can Be the Life of the Party and had a lecture on the mathemat- ical way to win at games of chance which kept the members broke for weeks.

The Press Bureau, this year directed by Sol Ebersol, soon resigned itself to the tendency of metropolitan newspapers to pounce upon any kind of report about wild doings at Haver- ford, meanwhile begrudg- ing Scarlet victories and campus events more than a passing mention.

Although the new field house ; ' .md golf course failed to put in an appearance, Haverford ' s : athletic facilities were enlarged by the addition of two new ; liclds behind the grandstand, which were first used last fall. ' - ' l The Walton Field track was improved by the construction o a coiKictc pule The greatest change ot all was the new three ' year compul- sory athletic program. Although this did not affect the Class of ' 38 at all, we saw Its effects on the Junior Class during the past year of experimentation. The Varsity Club, composed of undergraduate letter-winners, was formed for the purpose of advancing the athletic interests of the College. Wrestling, squash, and intramural sports have come into greater prominence. The success of Haverford ' s track team has been phenomenal, while tennis and fencing have enjoyed excellent seasons. The oldest college sport suffered a set- back when cricket letters were abolished this year. Fencing received recogni- tion when letters were awarded for the first time in 1936. In football we have seen two successful seasons and two which were decid- edly on the lean side. In the fall of 1934, Haverford nosed out Hamilton at Clinton, 13-12, for the only victory in a six-game season. The best perform- ance on the home field that season was against Hopkins, m which Haverford pushed the visitors all over the field, only to lose 6-0 in the last few minutes ot play .

Wesleyan was toppled, 13-7, Hamilton beaten on Walton field in a 27-20 free-for-all, and Hopkins edged, 7-6. Defeats were suffered at the hands of Lehigh, Randolph- Macon, Dickinson, and Susquehanna, the locals losing the last 19-16 after being ahead most of the battle. Graduation and injuries had the 1936 eleven stopped at the line of scrim- mage. Williams, Dickinson, and Randolph-Macon all won decisively over the green Haverford eleven. Wesleyan came out on top 12-6 in a close battle where each team featured a Holder brother. Don Childs made himself famous as the only guard in the country to lead his team in scoring as he fell on a fumble in the end zone to score six of the season ' s eight points. Haverford also ran against Hopkins and Hamilton. Captained by Childs, a veteran squad returned last fall and under the coach- ing of Roy Randall and Bill Docherty came through with two wins, one tie, [861 I iin aiul three losses.

The 1937 team was featured by a good passing attack and improved line play.

The opposition gains Hip, hip, hip, — Whoa ' Derr shoots a spiral [87 Winning seven out of nine intercollegiate contests, last fall ' s soccer team had a quite successful season, although it failed to come through with the championship that early predictions promised. Rhinie year, the last of Jim McPete ' s thirteen-year regime as coach, the team lost only one game, winning three and tying three. The lone defeat came at the hands of Penn, 4-1. The highlights of the season were the 4-0 triumph over Navy and ties with Cornell and Princeton. In 1935, Jim Gentle ' s first year as coach, the soccer team failed to win a game for the first time in history. A 2-2 tie with Lehigh was the brightest spot of the season. The team was never completely outclassed, however; lour games were lost by one point and the other two were lost by two-point margins. The next fall, with the sophomores contributing such stars as Mears, Crosby Lewis, and the Evans twins, the team began it comeback. Four intercollegi- ate games were won, three lost, and one tied. Haverford defeated the eventual league champions, Princeton, 4-2, but slumped and dropped league games to Penn and Swarthmore before returning to winning form against Cornell. Continuing to improve, the team played brilliant soccer at times last fall. Defensively they were good; goalie Ebersol allowed only five tallies to slip past him in nine games. Offensively, the team failed to come through against Swarthmore and Princeton. In the intercollegiate opener, the Haverford booters scuttled Navy 2-0 in a ragged contest.

Rene Blanc-Roos was captain of the 1934-35 team, w hich won four, lost three, and tied one. The next year marked the beginning of the four-team Middle Atlantic conference. Allan Hale, the captain, was injured and unable to wrestle, as the team won one out of five. Rene returned to us next year as coach. During his two-year regime the varsity has had a .500 average. Joe Rivers was captain the first year, and both he and Haig went through undefeated seasons and won Middle Atlantic titles. Bailey and Evart rose from the ranks of the Jayvees to become winning grap- plers. This year Captain Haig ' s team was only able to defeat Hopkins and Ursinus in a six-meet schedule. Haig ' s record of 90 points scored in Haver- ford meets and one point in the Nationals over a three-year period is one that will stand for some time. 90 If any one sporl is llic (.-lass ol ' 38 ' .s, it is Icncing. As lUiinics, four of our number made Coach CJordon ' s varsity. For the last three years a ' 38 man has been i.,ipt,iin hrst it was IViiullc, then ( loltlniark, then Lij on.

Besides winning these intercollegiate contests, the fencers managed to acquire intlivKliially various watch-fobs, cups and other trophies in the A. FLA. compe- tition. The predominance of the graduating class on the fencing team will be keenly felt, however, when next year ' s team is formed. Alex Moseiey, varsity epec man, will be captain.

After getting off to a slow start, the Ha erlord squashmen took the last four matches ol the season to end the most successful season of the compara- tively new sport with four victories, five losses, and one tie. The team, com- posed of Captain Finlcy, Maule, Hoyt, Ro.sen, Shaw, and Dewees, remains intact for next year and should prove a winning combination.

We have seen the record for individual scoring broken twice, but the four years have produced only 15 victories against 42 defeats. Perhaps it IS our fault — except tor Bill Duff, who played quite a bit sophomore year before leaving for Pans, the only man from our class who ever earned a regular varsity position was Ted Wingerd. Even Ted was talent that we inherited, and not something we brought in with us. In our first year at Haverford, most ot us saw the triple-pivot system for the first time. With Bill Harman, Joe Taylor, Tiernan, Kane, and Poorman doing most of the playing, the team won six and lost seven. The opposition was outscored, 369-336, as Haverford was defeated four times by two-point margins. Especially noteworthy was the 34-30 triumph over Swarthmore in the annual classic. The next year, with four lettermen returning, prospects seemed bright. After starting off with four straight victories, the team faltered and lost ten straight. In the final game of the season, against Swarthmore, the quintet made BASKETBALL TEAM Seated: Webster, Beeler, E. C. Wingerd (Captain), Jackson, MagiU.

Shoot two, Wchstcr! a desperate effort to save the season, but failed by one point, 25 26. Joe Taylor ' s individual scoring record of 124 points was the outstanding event of the season. Joe Carson broke the new record next season b - ten points, but the team won only five and lost eleven. A 30-28 victory over Hampden-Sydney and a 23-19 defeat of Hamilton were the high spots. Swarthmore, on the upgrade, won by a 43-23 count. Sadly felt last winter was the absence of Osteopathy and Textile from the varsity schedule. The Fords played through the most difficult schedule of any quintet in the last four years without winning a game. Captain Ted Wingerd ' s team showed a few flashes of form, but were never able to maintain it. The new rules, speeding up the play, were undoubtedly hard on Haverford s team, which did not have the reserve strength necessary for the frequent substitu ' tions most teams used to give their players a rest. Several capable players confined their interests to intramural ball or studies, and the mid-season loss of Dave Flaccus and Webster was keenly felt. The closest game of the season was played at Hoboken, where Stevens finally won a 40-38 contest as Wingerd netted six field goals for Haverford. Ed Jakle paced Swarthmore ' s crack five to a 41-13 triumph. [93] Monan goes Uuuumph Cross-country runners Up and over! Twenty straight dual and trian- gular meet victories! Undefeated three years in a row ! That is a track record to be proud of! Now throw in a Middle Atlantic States championship and take a look at the new records that have been set since we came here lour years ago. Yes, it ' s all the work of Haverford ' s miracle man, Pop Haddleton. hi our first year we saw Sturge Poorman set a high jump record of 6 feet 23 inches and Chuck Holzer tie the college record with a 10- second century the same afternoon. The team suffered its last defeat against Lehigh on May 1st, and then won three straight, ending the sea- son with four victories in six meets. Bill Myer borrowed Captain Holzer ' s high scoring crown in 1936 as Haverford steam-rollered all opposition. Holzer was again captain in 1937, and again led his team through an unbeaten season. Pop found that there was a sopho- more broad jumper named Joe Win- gerd who could run like the dick- ens, so he put him to work on the dashes. Joe ran 10-second hundreds on two successive week-ends. The closest meet of the season was the Junior Day contest with Swarthmore. With only the discus and broad jump to come, Haverford was trailing by almost seven points. Derr, Wingerd, and Lewis swept the broad jump for Haverford, while [94; llolzcr took lir.st and Mycr tliird in the discus to give Haverford a 65 -60 edge. In ilic MrIlIIc Ail.iiiiks, Haverford topped Rutgers by A ' An points scored in the last event, the high |Lini|i, to take first place among eighteen competing colleges. The hnal meet was with Union, which had won eleven straight meets. Haverford won, 80 46, as Joe Wingerd ran a 9.9 hundred and Sam Evans broke the high hurdle record with a 15.5 effort and tied the low mark in 24.8. This year ' s team, led by Sam Evans, continued the brilliant winning streak, romping over Hopkins, Lehigh, Lafayette, Swarthmore and Union in rapid sue cession. The team was unable to defend its Middle Atlantic title, however, owing to a conflict ith the LJnion meet Pop ' s proteges seemed stronger in most of the running events, but missed Holzer in the weights. With plenty of material returning next year, we look forward to another successful cinder season. TRACK TEAM First ivir: Myer, Hastings, Hallahan. E Mason, de Beaussett, S. R.

Ricit rDii-; Darnell, L. Balderston, Gilbert (Manager), E. L Kohn Baseball at Haverford seems to be one of the stabler sports. No matter how the team looks before the season begins, it always has pretty good pitching, makes a lot of errors, wins a fe v games, loses more than it wins, and beats Swarthmore. We find that in the last three years the team won 12, lost 19, and averaged about 5 errors per game. The team batting average has always been .250 or better; the fielding average always less than .900. With rain one of the season ' s chief obstacles, Haverford won three and lost four in 1935. One game was rained out in the second inning with Haverford five runs ahead, and another was a 6-6 tie in the fourth. Stew Beers, Rhinie hurler, was winning pitcher in all three victories. Hopkins was defeated in an 18-13 slugfest, while Swarthmore was downed 9—4 and Delaware beaten 6-5. Unfortunately, Beers didn ' t return next year, and prospects looked none too good. The pitching burden fell on Ham Welbourn and Frank Mears. The team played through a long fourteen game schedule, including a southern trip, and took five games, four of which Welbourn won. Nine-four was the score 96 o llic Svvarlhmorc .iiiic. John Carson, a iiinior, captained last year ' s team which won four out of ten. Wei bourn again mas- tered the Garnet, turning in a 7 4 victory, and was elected captain for this spring. The prospects this season looked pretty bright, with Welbourn, Beers, Palmer and Ebersol on the pi tching staff The veteran infield was composed ot Magill at third, Jackson at second, Childs at first and Beeler at short. With Taylor, Wingerd, Al Lewis and Red Wil- liams battling tor the outfield po- sitions. Coach Randall had few worries in that department, and Pa Carson was behind the plate. Getting off to a slow start, the Randallmen were only able to se- cure an extra-inning tie with Drexel m the first six games, including a Southern trip. The team came back, however, to take six out of the remaining nine contests, defeat- ing Stevens twice, Lehigh, Mora- vian, Union and Hampden-Sydney. This brought their four-year record to 18 wins, 27 losses and a tie. Unfortunately, rain caused a can- cellation of the Swarthmore contest. — He floats through the air — Wingerd batting, Magill on deck The ball fails to reach Carson [97] Only Captain Mel Weightnian graduated from last season ' s outstanding ten- nis team, which had the best record in history, dropping one out ot eleven. Victories were notched against State Teachers and Muhlenberg by 6-3 scores. Gettysburg was swamped 7-2, while Lehigh provided the only setback of the season, 2-7. The Haverford courtmen then went ahead to win seven straight matches, topping Union, Swarthmore, Lafayette, F. and M., Dickinson, Ste- vens, and Ursinus. Captain and number one man this season is Jack Finley, winner of the Vir- ginia Cup for the past two years. Lettermen Shaw, Goldmark, Bonham, and Ramsey will play in that order, with the number six position being filled by Bob Dewees. Shaw and Finley will form the number one doubles team. Gold- mark and Ramsey number two, and Bonham will pair with either Dewees or Ham Hoyt for the number three duo. The golf prospects for the season were darkened when Charlie FoUmer, Rhinie letterman from last year, failed to return, and Bob Burnside left at mid- years, but Bill Duff ' s return from abroad will strengthen the team. Besides Duff and Captain Chuck Sponsler, Bud Gross, Jack Wilson, and Max Steel are veterans who will be relied on heavily.

The greatest loss is the graduation of Ed Rector, captain for two years. Intercollegiate cricket has returned this spring with Ursinus on the schedule. Don Baker, ' 26, coaches the Ursinus XI. General Electric, Ardmore, Crescent A.C., and the Alunini will also be met. A new coach, Frank Ashton, is in charge. Intramural athletics were expanded this year as the three-year compulsory athletic program stimulated interest. Manager Amos Leib, Committee Chair- man Don Childs, and Assistant Manager Albert were responsible for the varied sports program. A volleyball league was inaugurated during the uinter season and a spring tennis tournament was held for the first time. The Varsity Club polished and engraved some of the College ' s old cups for intramural awards. In touch football, Center Barclay was undefeated, while Llovd-North Barclav took the soccer crown. In the interclass soccer tourna- ment the juniors were victorious. The Lloyd B Basketball team, featuring Ebersol, proved unbeatable, and Lloyd also took the wrestling title.
