J Ov- - x( A ' c 71 -j (L: (D- Ut( M ' i l ' ■• ••fv-VLf AoA THE 1942 RECORD HAVERFORD COLLEGE Dedicated to Dr. William B. Meldrum BOOK 1 Charles Abbott. During his college career, Charlie established the impressive record of being the first person in the dining room every day — rain or shine — morning, noon, and night. Whether it was his regu- larity and promptness or his love of eating, it is hard to say. Probably these two qualities also led him to the Co-op where he ultimately became manager and almost achieved the Her- culean task of bringing the store out of the red. A Quaker from the country somewhere near I anghorne, Chuck arrived at Haverford to spend his Rhinie year with Adams Kay Inc., in third entry. After moving to Found- ers where he could keep an eagle eye on the Co-op, he retired in his senior year to South Barclay with Charlie Schaeffer, another solid up-countr - boy. Charlie never created much disturl:ance. He went about his work quietly and good-naturedly, whether it be as Circulation Manager of the News or squinting through a mi- croscope in the Bug lab. Dependable Charlie liked nothing better than to let out one of those deep-throated resonant laughs. James Neal Addoms. We have always looked upon Neal as a solemn and dignified chap who lived in Lloyd Hall for four years and e ' ery one of those years managed to snare a Corporation Scholarship — a fact that in itself is enough to make us wonder some- times about our little life. It turns out on further examination that Neal does many (jlher things beside study, and remember we many an envious prom evening when our James would toddle in, togged out in all his finery, and place himself gently but firmly in the very midst of the gaiety. The sciences have always captured his somewhat non- mercurial fancy more than anything else, and he has made a fine thing of them. Which is not to say that w c have never heard of Neal getting hilarious at a football game or chewing garlic au gratin in the center-bleachers. Well-rounded per- sonality is one of those expressions to be avoided wherever possible since it frequently applies to someone who can do most things in mediocre fashion. With Jamie, however, the expression carries more weight, and his serious nature is topped off with a keen sense of humour— a phenomenon which will, to our minds, inevitably place him in the hierarchy of Those Who Will Suc- ceed. Bonne chance, Aniigo, and ma ' never that golden bowl be broken! George Aldridge. George has been nick named tlie (jijose, why isn ' t exactly known. He explains it in his own way: Well, why is a circus fat man called ' Slim ' ? At any rate the Jersey sage holds forth regularly, con- linualK , and .uitliDiitat i i ' l - on bridge and baseball. Let ' s deal the [ilacards for a while, lellow s. I ' m the best darn bridge placer this college ever had. I think I ' ll gi e a course on the Aldridge system. Say, did I ever tell ou boys what a wonderful right fielder the White Sox have? ' Phis may go on more or less indeli- niteK ' depending on how much time he can spare awav from that lil)rar ' alcovi ' , his second home. Generally about this time his colleagues contemplate washing the rosy- cheeked Goose down the drain. He concludes the discourse with some remark about visiting a certain fair-haired duchess this week-end. In his more serious moments he monopolizes a library alcf)ve. Alter he makes his mark in this world a plaque will undoubtedly be placed in this corner stating, He did it here. Warren Anderson. Walk into Warren ' s room of an e ening and you ' re likely to see him, sprawled Roman-like over his bed, read- ing Sappho or the Litterae Hominum ()b- scurorum. Or, ])erhaps, he ' s finishing off the prelude to that slightK ' unpla al)le chromatic- fugue. Whatever he ' s doing, he ' s likely to tell you all about it. And by now we can ha e no doubt as to the extent of his erudition. Fenc- ing, fantastic schedules of five hours a week, Spengler, arranging nmsic for the (dee Club, occasional ( orp scholarships, give some indication of his many, and esoteric, activi- ties. What we like best about Warren is his unerring selection of le mot juste. We remember once when, in his capacitv as Supervisor of the Music Room, he returned from Philadelphia with such novel record additions as Adieu Sweet Amarillis, Maidens Fair of Mantua ' s Citv, and selections from the first jazz opera of Krenek. Our comments on which drew the devastating, ( ad, sir, you can ' t pla - Beethoven every day. Dick Bauer. Dick is one of those enviable ( liaracters who led the complete life while in this intellectual rat ' s nest. Knocking down an average that was more than respect- able and grasping a big gob of the extra- curricular pie, Dickie also burst out in 1 )el;orah Debbie and kept Jeanie bursting out over him. About that average though, it ' s rumored that he broke the record for . IBBI BII HIH snap courses set by A. Wearybotton, ' 04. L-,„ Dick ' s voice was often the highlight of a glee club concert but perhaps we will alwa s re- member him most with his vashbasin Wag- i ner. Weaver, Bauer, Weaver and Bauer was ti a quartet quite unlike anything we had ever heard before and its demise is the one bright spot of graduation. Dick is one of the few people we have ever known to go into a florist ' s shop and o rder a narcissus corsage. We asked Dick about this and he blushingly admitted it was a sort of complex with him. Howard Bedrossian. 15ede is the only man in college to average three dates a week (luring his whole stay here. He certainly must have something: we have seen two letters from Mary arrive on the same day. Nurses are his specialty, but secretaries rate high. We can vouch that Howard studies. The f)nly waste of time that we know of is the course he took in heavenly bodies. Alter all his experience we don ' t think he needs Ixjoks on that subject. He has alwa s tried out for sports, but just misses out. We can ' t blame him for that, since our own record is nil. He continually worries over his weight, but you can ' t live off the fat of the land and not gain weight. His favorite meat is Lamb, we hope that ' s right. Howard is moving on to Temple to prepare for medicine. We wish him our best, and hope he succeeds. Beck} ' , ihi ' two ol w li(Ji and they could he seen time with nc ' er a dull Kd ar Hell. I ' itt ' s loss was our niim. I Slid, though lie started there transferred in lime to join us as a Rhinie and proceeded i|uickl - to show that he was really one of the t;anii and ,iii integral pari ol the Colle.t;e. HciominL; Chairman of ihe Store ( onimittee in his S(i|)hnm()re ear he rapidly proceeded to hrint; order out of chaos and has the dis- tinction of starling that institution hack along the roatl to financial success. And he was not al)o e snagging high marks in classes where he inevitably sat in the first row ready to confuse the professor with his favorite query h.it 1 don ' t see is how . . . ? while at the same time earning a reputation for squir- ing with the aid of the white-side-walled n were inseparable to the last. She was his trade-mark e% ' ery where when classes were over all ready tor a good mometit. won of fa his c deftl Burns Brodhead. Burns is the boy with tln ' serious, searching look in his eyes; but ou ' d better keep your guard up when you ' re talking with him or you ' ll find yourself wide optn for one of his south-aw wisecracks. Col- lige hasn ' t changed him a bit — he ' s still as nai ' e as he was the day he carried Dick Mayer ' s ftirniture for him but he could • ngue Kinstein into belie ing the world was llat if he wanted to. ( eorge taught him how to do that. Burns is an authority- on Media nightlife and Swarthmore women. He also knows |nite a bit about the world west of Phila- delphia. As an athlete, he once accidentally ciitend a cross-country meet; and almost it, b - golly! He is a skilled and competent driver, but through a quirk te Burns must ask his roommate ' s permission whenever he wants to bring ar on campus. Burns hopes to be a minister, it ' s hard y punch the de il out of the 1 )e il ! to imagine .inyoni ' who could more Norman Brous. Of the strong, silent men in the Class (if 42, Norman Brous is out- standing. Quite often lie was seen striding across the campus, briefcase in hand and a very serious expression on his face. During his Senior year he wore the broadest grin of any of the Day students after completing his Comprehensives in January, the first in the class to weather that storm. Called to the armed forces in the middle of his last year, Norman left before his basketball talent could be put to good use on the court. His athletic ability was evident in his junior year when, as one of the five fighting Day students, he placed a sterling game as guard on that championship intramural team. Yet Norman ' s reputation rests not on his basketball prowess, but rather on his purposeful and s stematic endeavors as a student and scholar. Becoming a Day student after his Freshman year, Korman lost many contacts with the resident students, but to those whom he favored with his friendship his fine qualities were an inspiration. Knox Brown. Knox is a tall, pleasant chap who means a thing when he says it; and can always prove it if he has to. His dress is as smooth as his speech; and as the time approaches for putting THE RECORD to bed he looks like a sure thing to win the News poll hands down. His wit is ironic and sure-fire. His boogie piano is genuine and impassioned. Besides being a gentleman and a scholar, Knox is also somewhat of a businessman and somewhat of an athlete. As manager of the C lee Club in his senior ear he put through deals with Hood and Beaver that would cause a minor shake-up on Wall Street, were the details to come to light. As a member of a championship volleyball team throughout his college life, he has displayed nerves of brass and muscles of steel. Knox is also known as the elusive ideal of many a local damoiselle who, attracted by the aura of mystery surrounding his personality, has found herself spurned in favor of a legendary nymph named Fran, of whom we have heard much, but whom Knox has never seemed able to pro- duce as prima facie e ' idence in crucial moments. Richard Brown. Tin- Panda has ciis- tini;uislH ' d himself both as a male dcliiitanti- and a chcm major. As for his cinniistry just ask Doc Meldruni and as for the other business just ask anybody who is anybod - on the Main Line. The Mighty Mite, as he terms himself, lists his hobbies as; fly- fishing, dominoes, blushing, gaseous reactions, and Vat 69. Among his numerous accomplish- ments are rooming with Kales for one year and Kirkpatrick for three, a feat in itself. Dickie never worried. One of our most typical memories of him is sitting on two dictionaries while driving that blue con- vertible, sans permission, past Tat Brown. He didn ' t even worry when his average on one occasion turned out to be 95 instead of the 96 he had hoped for. His even temperament broke down onl - under the pressure of Math I on Sunday nights and occasionally when h.iving to answer all those darned invitations. Bud Burford. Bud was not long in making himself known when he arrived as a Rhinie. F or a while he was North Barclay ' s little terror. Since that turbulent year he has become somewhat quieter, but can assert himself if necessary. He often says that hv studies if there ' s nothing better to do. This attitude frequently resulted in ( iilightening conversations with the dean, and though emerging from them a trifle battle-scarred, still he has carried on wonderfully. Bud ' s social life has been restricted, so to speak, but constant. We might say that Carol attached him to Haverford as nothing else could. Besides Carol, the Kentucky Won- der has certain other interests, one of which is jive, and the place often rocks to those old Know It and Another One of Them Things, cries of Are you hep. ' ' As immort.ilized in t The Joint is Jumpin ' . tav. parlor favorites, Make Me interspersed with frightening he words of the old masters: John E. Bye. The loss is ours that Johnny decided to spend the first three ears of his college career at Farlhani, tor lesides his indoniiiable sense of humor, his ability on the track would have made him a well-known member of the Class of ' 42. Hi- was captain of both track and cross country at Earlham, and it was only the fact that he was here but one year that kejit him out of Poji ' s clutches. Johnn - was a day student, and in order that he would not lose the knack of breaking records, he would leave college after an 11 :,?() class, drive in a not too leisurely fashion to Media for liuich and then to his job— all by one o ' clock. Before this daily dash biologist Bye was usually to be found either somewhere on campus with a cyanide jar in his hand the collector ' s gleam in his eye stalking some hapless beast or else working on the fmnth flo( r of Sharpless with his fellow majors whom he constantK ' refreshed with hi liniiiKlless wit and en- thusiasm. Lloyd Cadbury. T. LUnd is that luan you all have seen after lunch eN ' ery da -, quietly trudging beneath the ginkos, in rapt contemplation of a Choco-Fop. He has been doing this for four years now and the rumor is lu ' ing bruited about that his spirit will continue to do so long after he has gone. But whenever a reunion of good old ' 42 comes around, you ' ll undoubtedly find Cadbury dissecting a tsetse (?) or a binturong, or whate er other outlandish beast may inhal:)it the fens and brakes here- abouts. Cad is a fiend for the minutac of local fauna, and we have noticed his scalpel twitching in an un-Quakerly way over a mere housefly. Cadburv- is a fellow of quiet organization and well-laid plans. He continues to smile his cjuaint and so far indomitable smile, and still insists that Haverford can be moved bodily to Florida for the winter months. He always sighs a trifle when this fails to happen, and we once thought he was going to wear his o ' ercoat through May, just from sheer stubliornness. U lad ' with remained to know t Lee Childs. How often did we who knew him become spellbound as this master story-teller of them all spun his web of fiction. A man of many relations, Lee is the only Haverford man who claims cousins in both Afghanistan and in Patagonia. This the original bo ' from Syracuse has ever excelled in pinning the bovine. Often far into the night Lee ' s little room was filled with the flotsam and jetsam of all four classes as he alternateh ' did Chem 5 and told about the Adirondacks and the exigencies of existence of medical men. The bo ' with the line hit the dances as hard as he hit the books. Executing a fox-trot that would make Arthur Murray gulp, Lee would further confuse the a contradictor - account of his personality. So to most of them he an amiable man of m stery. Those who were fortunate enough he real Lee knew a simple, kind, home person who loved kids. f ' ' TSir |[ ' ' ' ' ' ? John Clark. ... And the walls come IJ k SSI v tuniljlin ' down ... That rolling basso heard for the past four years in Glee Club concerts, in so many plays — heard bouncing around the floor of Roberts Hall and tumbling down all those stairs from the Tower — belongs to Center ' s most loyal son and one of the last of our members of the Society for the Preservation of Hebron, Booneville, Boyertown, and All Points. John ' s concern over the social as well as the intellectual education of Haverford men is responsible for his being a co-founder of the Barclay Retter Bridge Bureau and Protective Associa- tion. The high point of his winter campaign was in serving as usher at the recent wedding of an honor member of the SFHBBAP, but it does not seem yet to have done anything more than put ideas in his head. He will not be a bachelor for more than five years, though . . . not without breaking a written contract. John is one of the relatively few who has found out that Swarthmore isn ' t so bad after all. Of course it took him three and a half years to discover this fact, but then the co-operation plan between us has only just begun . . . 12 Tom Cochran. Bi , ijcnial Tom spends most of his da liKht hours staiidiTijr near Senior Kntrance and buttonholing the fel- lows as the - uo by. lie ' s ijot a lot on his mind, too: (lowers to he ordered for the girls in the latest Cap and I ' x-lls play: leather priorities to l.e finessed liefore the Siwash Teachers basketball game can go on; Ri ' .coKi) ads to cheek up on — not to speak ot Tom ' s most persistent worry: Who was that girl I saw oii with last night? B - night, Tom either engages in a masterful bridge game, or keeps a vigil at the Straw. .Xttci hops he l;ats his father ' s ear over to Camden and back, jusl to get the wanderlust out of his system. But there is et another Tom — the Tom of the gridiron and the Tom oi the C.o - department. We somehow feel that a few years heiu-e we ' ll be seeing more of him- perhaps on the co er of Time m.igazinc. Al Dorian. We are studying quietU ' and efticienth ' in our little cell. The birds are tooting happily in the treetops. All ' s right with the world. Suddenly the air is shattered by a crashing baritone. It ' s Al pouring out his soul to the world at large. It ' s Rigoletto in the morning, Tristran in the evening, and almost anything in the shower. Not that we object, of course. Every- one must find his outlet, a little salt and pepper on the dail - routine. Al finds his salt in song . . . Nor is this the limit to his accomplishments. It is not everyone who can claim to have conducted a dozen of the world ' s foremost symphonic orchestras. 1 In- mere inter ention of a phonograph record between Al and his orchestra detracts nothing from his .ibility. Inthe field of sports, Al has madeabig contribution to Haverford ' s laurels, both as president of the ' arsity Club and as a versatile athlete. On the soccer field, under the basket, on the pitching mound, on the tennis court, we see the same flourish and finesse. Always the clown, the dude, the aesthete, the athlete. What more could a woman ask? 1.? Wilnier Dunham. Having passed a sober eveniiii; at the Loc, Hawkeye is wont to strip to his vividi - lined shorts and begin the next day ' s Engin assignment. This procedure oeciirs, of course, only between seasons — be- tween Soccer Season and Track Season. But at any time of year Hawkeye may be found hard at work on his favorite hobby: to wit, Making People Laugh at Themselves. Hawkeye also indulges in a sport peculiar to ( eorge School graduates: that of loudly pro- claiming the virtues of the aforementioned (George School. In support of his argument he periodically produces Fhyl, who we all agree represents the strongest possible evidence in his favor. When not taking part in any of the activities so far indicated, Hawkeye is usually at the Skating Rink, where he helps cut the ice. Mostly, Hawkeye spend his time recovering from Rhinie Year, which was plenty tough. If you ever catch a haunted look in his vyv, you may be quite sure that he is thinking of living conditions on the first floor of South when the Mayer-Steptoe gang was on the loose. Roy Dye. Since Freshman year when his match cover collection was the admiration of all Merion, Roy ' s fixations have gone through a remarkable cycle of change. Sopho- more year he campaigned fervently among his patrons in the dining room only to be nosed out by a senior in the election of best waiter. Retiring to his books after this disappointment Roy began to concentrate jHi M ' ' ' future as a lawyer. This has been a ! . L. iil ' steady drain on his time ever since. However ff in Junior and Senior years he has been f B BSIk A i K. forced to give some attention to the matter B k Hmuji of balancing the income of a waiter against H QIIhIJI H expenditures and week-ends at Welles. So inconsistent is this side of Roy ' s character with his everyday role of student, athlete, and President of the Janitor ' s Night School that his room- mates often wonder whether Roy actually does reach Welles on the week-ends when he disappears for several days. They are reassured that he is keeping up his contacts with the outside when he receives his daily letter addressed in feminiiU ' handwriting. 14 Jack Elliott. Harvard may lia c its C ' harli ' s l- liol of liNL ' -foot-boiikslu ' lt lame, bill Havcrford has its Jack Klliolt of live-fooi- ci ht Harrla ' center fame. I fere has been I he Jack of (he Liiiiidr Irade and llie master ol thi ' wrestlers. He.ired near the ( ' it ' of I ' eiin, witli skill and insight lu- now wields his pen. Besides being favored at each mail delivery, this Man of Letters made a name for him- self creating unusual letters filled with spicy humor. It was Jack who put the Press Bureau on its legs during his Juni(jr year. How often in his (|uiet manner has he pointed out ' our education has been sadl ' ne- glected. SoiiU ' wonder whethiT or not he h.id any responsibility for instigating the riots connected with the famed Barclay blackouts, ills iiersonalily blended well and his wit usually produced appropriate puns (typically his) in the waiters ' dining room. He seemed to enjoy himself in the waiter ' s capacity- and took life easy while doing it (especially in the mornings). On the .Service Project his Junior year many a week-end he put in at the Week-end Work Camp in the City of Brotherly- Love. For Mr. Barnes and the Main Line Y. M. C. A. Jack devoted his time for four years, heading the organization of Haverford College workers during his last two. f David Emery. Fhlegm and physique, philosophy and phonograph records, and an admixture of romantic philandering — these are the keynotes of Dave ' s character. He ' s as cool as a frozen cucumber; and finds no conceivable situation too difficult to cope with. His chest expansion is a fraction of an inch less than Joe Louis ' , and if you don ' t believe us, ask Julia. He likes to play ' possum when Dougie is around, but has yet to fool that gent, who continually hands him the astronomi cally high grades he realK deserves. His taste in music runs to Russian choral work and he is said to possess the finest collection of this type in Lower Merion Township. As far as his love-life — well, no one will soon forget the dream he brought into the dining hall one nierr - Sunda -. The sight of her actually made one of Charlie ' s defense meals palalal)le. 1 )a e is a very genuine personalit -. His frankness is often dis- arming but never blunt. His speech is enthusiastic and loud, and he sometimes lapses into the patois of the Leni Lenapi Indian. We nominate him as a future man of the year. l.S mk; Ed Emery. No, no, no, no, no! . . . Well, ou ' re doing all right, but that isn ' t quite what that line calls for. You have to put more feeling into it, more inflection. Here, kl me show you ... That Ndrristown Noel C oward, the iriplc-lhreat writer-actor- director, The Man in the Third Floor, E;AST, has left his mark at Haverford by his theatrical versatility, which has embraced . ji - over and above everything else the vice- || K|dr |  « presidency of Cap and Bells. After his L freshman year at Washington and Jefferson, A. fl wb| where forensic and journalistic activities v |HH[| H vied with the histrionic, Ed joined us. His A M M stature reached its full height when as Scrappy in OUTWARD BOUND he came up with so convincing a characterization that the plaudits of the audience were all his, despite the presence of a previous Cap and Bells -. p., and others of high merit. He wound up his career here by taking leading roles in both the spring play, HAY FEYHR, and PATIENCE, only his no-doubt .Spartan living enabling him to withstand the rigorous rehearsal schedules, and still be one of us when June si. cth came around. Ed has plans, too, of writing the great American novel after newspaper work has lined his larder. From then on, watch for his plays and no -els leading the best-seller lists. Arthur Evans. Art is one of the most instinctively good-hearted people we know, and a man with a keen and natural apprecia- tion of human character. The fact that he is a chemist is undoubtedly not the primary fact of his college career. After all, you have to major in something, don ' t you? Art has always done his bit and a little more for whatever cause came to his attention which he felt to be a worthy and significant one. And more than most scientists we have run across, he has been able to keep a vital interest in his chemistry and still realize the impor- tance of other events taking place about him. We will all be asked some time in the future to prove what we have got from college, and when that time comes for Art, he probably won ' t say much of anything about his studies and his work — since study and work arc not confined totheacademy — but rather we can see his face lighting up when he thinks ot the friends he has made and of the comradeship that he has found at Haverford. 16 W. C. Falconer. Lord Falconer, joshingly called The Dooke by his own little circle of illiterati in the Annex, is perhaps Haver- ford ' s best example of the nobleman who hasn ' t lost the common touch. Whether a taxi-dancer or a drug-store clerk, people just love the Dooke, and though he may refer to them as those jerks, we who know him best realize full well that he just loves them, too, at least some of them. Walt is perhaps at his best on the track. He used up an extra drop of sweat one day in sophomore year and set a new college record. At the bridge table, milord is perfecth- willing to let things pursue their normal course, but let some one chal- lenge a Falconer system and the IJooke will give him a lesson he ' ll never forget, won ' t you, Dave? It ' s probably the Dooke ' s mvulnerability that makes the Goose and the other thousands worshij) him so. To date, we know of only one who has his number. It was she who brought about the historic phase which renders W. C . apoplectic and gasping, What? — ' c)u w iiuldn ' t dare hang up (111 me!! . . . Operator! Operator!! Perhaps he will with-a-smile set had the punch line Ed Flaccus. Well-bred geniality coupled with a sardonic but charming sort of humour characterize the Lansdowne Lothario. No Flagellante he, the whimsical evenings at Mr. Mann ' s establishment many times sub- stituted for digging for Dixie. .Scientist with a Bacchanalian slant, his volumetric research was nobly attempted even if Haworth did win the bet. A terror at tennis and the scourge of the soccer field, he also was responsible for persuading recalcitrant Rhinies that the - really should wear those little caps. Perennial class officer, he seemed to lend order to chaos by the very appearance of him so stalwart and fine looking as he would read off how much the class had lost on its last dance. K ' most remembered as the member of that famed suavity- Little old Al would be interlocutor but Ed was end man and Fhere was another line or so in Ed ' s life. One was the one Another was the one he dangled them from he used to catch them with. afterwards which was (piite all right except that we could never get away with it. 18 Kenneth Foreman. What a Southern Ceiulfinanl If anyliodx ' can, Ken ken. Far outshining Cook ' s Tours, the travels of this North Carolinian are noteworthy, not only up and down from Davidson, but also last summer out into the C,olden West by tent and Pontiac. Foreman ' s Western Tours can- not be duplicated. All the thrills of travel . . . losing one ' s money, doing cooking in a canny manner, marooned in a western village . . . were experienced by this adventurous Southerner. His career really should lie that of an explorer. Although pre-medical in inten- tions. Ken is definitely an English major who enjoyed all the excitement and changes offered by that department. Truly, he has gone into the major and mystery and mastery of English. Although li ing in the Language House his senior year, he headed the famous Founders ' table in the dining room, with a rather large appetite. His executi e ability showed u]) in being manager of the stage crew in his senior year, and bringing the Radio Club from its vacuum into a higher frequency of m.eetings. Taking a liking to his studies, Ken dived into carrying se en courses during his senior vear. Wolfgang Franzen. Into a pot half-full of boiling magnetostriction pour the contents of a box of powdered Kant. Stir well, and slowly add a teaspoonful of satanic humor. Let simmer, and drop in tennis balls and chess- men to taste. Serve on a letter to the News. If this procedure is carried out at four o ' clock in the morning, the result will most undoubt- edly be ' olfie. Woltie is an individual ; and few have ever penetrated the shrouds of his exterior. Those who have know he has a warm and generous personality and a mind so vigorous that he can master all of one of Fritzie ' s courses the night before an exam. They recognize him as the first real Bohemian on the campus since the days of Dick I oole. And they know that he possesses the grace of being genuinely witty. But even if one knew him as well as this, Wolfie would probably con- tinue to lead an untamed and self-sufficient life. He has a ver - fine sense of the meaning of freedom. 19 John Fust. Abercrombie is the one man on campus that can wear any sort of rig in any sort of weather and still keep such an air of aplomb that every one thinks it ' s just the thing. While striding aloofly across the ca m- pus he may wear anything from good sub- stantial brogans to duck-boots; from a Cus- tom ' s Committee cap to that natty all- weather, brim-down-for-rain afl air that set the would-be fashionables all agog sophomore ear. But in the monastic seclusion of Merion or the Penthouse he prefers nothing but blue- jeans. There he will sit, sans shirt, tie, shoes and socks, quieth contemplating — well — his future with Nance. A more than casual ac- quaintance with Magill, the Penthouse boys, the Manna Bar, Ask Me Another, the Pharmacy, Erie, Pa., and Meldrum and Ciucker has made of John a well-rounded man. Captain of the fencing team, a worthier man has never raised his weapon in salute to the vanquished foe. A few more years of training and John will be a full-fledged doctor. That ' s just the place for him. Can you picture him in a khaki suit? posterity-. ' h -, Jim, Jim Gary. Probabh- no one in the Class (if I ' Mi letter fits the title smooth than does Genial Jim. How many times have we the lesser lights waxed verdant with envy .uid chagrin when the suave Swarthmorite moved in on some lovely creature that we imagined existed for us alone. Gary ' s cute little-boy smile makes the girls want to take him in their arms and cover him with kisses. Tell us, Jim, has this ever happened? Of course it has you coy boy! Jim has alwa s reminded us of the nice young boy in fiction who is vamped by the stony-hearted siren who later finds herself madly in love with him, reforms, gives up gin, settles down in a vine-covered cottage and provides for blushing! 20 Kirk Greer. Renown for his prowess in tlie Apostolic Age and Eighteenth ( entury Literature, Kirk Greer has taken two depart- ments in his broad stride, the Biblical Litera- ture (which is his major) and P nglish. A sprinter in his earlier da s, Kirk is now definitely a little hea •y lor loop ' s cinder- men, but his joviality makes him a center of jokes and tales, wherever his stride may take him. One of Kirk ' s most amazing accomplish- ments is his ability to get good grades at col- lege and at the same time support his family. Yet even with his time divided between Col- lege and his job, he always looks as carefree as the New Lloyd boys. His musical talent is heard at the piano and organ. His tenor voice is note- worthy, so is his Glee Club, which he directs at Germantown Academy. Any word about Kirk must of necessity include mention of his pretty wife, Kathryn, who has been frequently seen at college dances and at Dr. Plight ' s semi- annual dinners for his students. To those who know him best. Kirk is ever ready for some worthwhile con- versation or bull session. All in all. Kirk pla s a distinctive role in the Class of ' 42. I Lou Grier. There is much debate from Lou but not about Lou. He is well liked. Nothing was more deadly for a forensic rival than to undergo a rigorous cross-examination at the hands of Lou Grier who was usual 1 - well supported by his famous thumb-worn clipping. By his portrayal of the milkman in Our Town and in his original duck walk on the dance floor, his dramatic ability has become apparent. Straddling the organ, piano, and squeal stick (clarinet), he ex- hibited his musical talent. A charter member of the College Band, Lou always pushed the organization and finished his Senior year as its librarian. His red hair testified to the fire that seemed to keep him going. During any autumn he was seen socking ' em on the soccer field and in the spring ieiding a tennis racket. A history- major, this Pittsburgh genius w ' eathered Dr. Lunt ' s jitter sessions with great calm dignity and answered all questions with amazing accuracy-. His experiences with Beaver College would make a splendid foundation for an edifving work entitled Ad icc to ' oung Men, or Mi - Not to Call a Taxi. 21 ■P ' l HI Jarden Guenther, Jr. Jay lies awake Jii l l i nights thinking of cricket and how he can bowl out Archer, the local terror, for here is un- doubtedly the most enthusiastic cricketer on the campus. As a matter of fact, there are a good many things besides classes that take up his time. He reads a prodigious number of books unassigned by professors, and studies just before exams, believing that the only real education should be broadening. He even made up a course in the French depart- ment, and took Sand ' practically by surprise. Maybe some day .Studies in ' oltaire will find its rightful place in the college catalogue. Another subject is very dear to his heart: music. He ' ll stop at nothing as far as that is concerned. For two years in a row, he ' s routed peojjle from their beds at four A. M. to fight for the Cause, which is the obtaining of season tickets for the vouth concerts at the Academ ' of Music. Gove Hambidge. Coming from a Bureau- cratic Washington, Gove Hambidge brought a long long list of courses with him he wanted to work into his schedule before he left Haverford. After a couple of years of heavy organization, Cjove got so he could take six or seven at a time, which impressed the fac- ulty into giving him a Cope fellowship to help pay ofif the Yale Medical School. VVe have seen our cherubic Napoleon lead the rush to courses in Bryn Mawr and defend his Austin on grounds of atifinity. What we didn ' t know about until almost too late to get it in the Record was that after all this planning and organization Gove admits HE doesn ' t know any of the answers, either. He sat cross- legged on his bed above the clouds in Founders and closed his companionate little black notebook furnished at a price by Lefax, Incorporated; he stared at the elephant crate that used to hold photo junk for Gove and terror for the rhinies vho had to move it; and he hitched up his pants cuff just like when he telephones. But he said he didn ' t know what was due to happen next. We tiptoed out, slamming the door. He never moved a muscle. Heber Harper. Hrbo can numa.uu things with extrenu ' (.fficicncy. He is xhr delight of the tracic team, and Walt always expected him to minister to my every little desire. South Barclay has seen a lot of Hebe, and vice versa, during the last four years. Fresh- man year he tried to keep up the moral stand- ards on the second floor. The next two years saw him busily engaged on the stage crew, the News, and even acting. For relaxation from the daiK ' grind of college life, he goes to New ' ork once in a while for a week-end, and catches up on the new plays. Other interests are politics, international relations, and Presi- dent Roosevelt. He has attended all of the seminar classes at President Morley ' s house, and it has been rumored that he has the inside on around college. track in knowing what ' s going- Edwin Harrington. Surrounded ])y a montainous pile of junk which was more dis- creetly referred to as the Collection and was catalogued imder Home Furnishings, Lumber and Alillwork. Flectric and Radio, Raw Materials, and Too Late to Classify, Ned sat in Lloyd. This collection was housed in the bureau drawers and overflowed lavishK into the rest of his bedroom. For two ears, after an experience at Harvard which still left a dark brown taste in his mouth, he lived in Barclay and there founded the Barclay School of Social Criticism. Acti ities were a valiant attempt to revive the too moribund Haver- fordian, an unpublished treatise on The Amenities of Life (Plumbing), and a revision of the Haverford Catalogue, also unpublished. Besides these he had many projects at home such as the W ' hilemarsh Scrap Iron and Demolition Compan - to keep him busy week-ends. A profound interest in classical records filled his home with albums and bills for them. Conservative hours and a minimum of exercise kept him healthy and ready for the Selective Service Act, which made him leave college before mid-years to the accompaniment of a monk ' s chorus singing Remember Poile Hobbur! 23 Frank Hastings.

Tim Haworth. Picture a bab - on a street corner eating candy. I ' p from nowhere, ears and knees akimbo, will lome Tim. He will take the candy genth ' awa ' , sa ing: Fol-de-rol, my dear, you are probabh ' one of the most charming young things I ' v e e er met.

Pro- lessors, deans, and especially girls become as putty imder Hawthorne ' s charming influence. But don ' t kid yoiu ' self, his witty charm is only one of many long suits. Tim is an able soccer pla er and a sincere and intelligent thinker — in fact mentally one of the brighter of the Lloyd lights. EqualK- at home burbling in a girl ' s ear, mufiing a six heart contract, or writing a two-weeks-overdue paper before breakfast, he will quickly put off till tomorrow what he im- undoubtedly can do better then an wa -. Old Tim is exactK what he afTabK stvles himself, a neat fella. Gordon Howe, (jordy found out early liow to enjoy himself in life and has done just that since those Freshman days when he astounded Math 1 adherents with his knowl- edge of combinations and permutations. Into that interval he has managed to cram varsity letters in three sports, although his forte is soccer, coupled with a representative partici- pation in other activities, and still has stayed in the good graces of the Chemistry depart- ment. Budding surgeon, especially versed in all the sulfas, he follows parental footsteps in this respect. In addition, the usual inordi- nate New England desire for skiing provided the impetus for the founding of a Haverford Ski team, which has done well under his tutelage. Considering his affiliation with the ( lee Club, and membership in Triangle and Varsity Clubs, one sees here a record that is imposing, and com- pletely balanced. Relationships with women are legendary, for while the rest of the boys struggle along with one or two measly letters a week, the Howe correspondence has been known to eclipse the astonishing total of seven. ' Ta Chun Hsu. The image of T. C. and Merion, mixed in the public mind, may per- haps take on the hues of a Goth-c Romance. We know that when we first thought of T. C. living in Merion, we found it easy to conjure up visions of opium pipes and uncanny music, where hallways measureless to man run down to a sunless can. We were relieved, nay overjoyed, to find that T. C. does not affect the toeless sandal, or the jade Buddha on the mantel, or even the casket of trained ■ jE-- coliras, though that would be permissable jj[B| in Merion. T. C, in short, has come here HH Hk v with the highly commendable purpose of y . ..... studying economics, so- blahhh! T. C. is that delightful sort of person who is there without being conspicuously so, who walks quietly, talks quietly, eats quietly, thinks (|uietiy, works quietly and lives quietly, and docs all this with an unbounded patience. He never seems to want to go anywhere, except that when vacations roll around he ' s pretty well set on a dash to New York to see countryman Ch ' en. Otherwise, life is settled in T. C, and he has long ago put away childish things to which most of us still cling. 26 Frank Dallas Johnston, Jr. Dallas is frank in more than name only. He ' ll tell you just what he thinks about anybody and anything, at the slightest provocation, and it isn ' t hard to provoke him at times. His caustic- comments are the delight of his friends, as well as the despair of some of them. One might say that he leads the contemplative life — he has been contemplating how slowly the time goes from the lirst da - of Rhinie year to the last day of graduation. Philadelphia and the city life have certainly played no small part in his four college years. The department stores such as Lit ' s, Wanamaker ' s, .Snellen- berg ' s, Gimbel ' s and particularly Straw- bridge ' s have seen quite a little of Dal. Ask him about the feud he had with one of his deliverymen — it ' s a good story and he tells it well. W ' e thought he ' d never become adjusted to this place, but he did finally. Maybe it ' s because he hasn ' t been here lr)ng enough to let it become unbearable. H. W. Johnstone. Schoolboy philoso pher, night owl and gentleman, Henry di ides his time between The Complete Works of Aristotle and the Omnibus of Crime. He has the pompous manners of a Turkish sultan, but would not hesitate to empty a salt-shaker into Rhodin ' s coffee. A creature of the night, aniasser of huge quantities of second-hand books, tall, pale and stately, Henry will anno - ou with a practical joke if you wish, or he might start reciting the latest from symbolic logic. No one has been able to penetrate that Mephistophelian gleam in his eyes, and all efforts to convince him that he should attend at least one class a week have failed. Henry continues with his life, reading the Herald Tribune in the morning, blithely ignoring meals, classes and collection, turning from Beetho en to an occasional jazz record, getting up in the e ening, sleeping through the day and shouting W ' hooo? through the dormitory ' when told that the Inner light is calling him over the telephone. In between, you will find him building mousetraps and con- necting his radio in some weird way to his alarm clock. His desk piled w itli detective stories, cigarette ashes, Plato ' s latest works, colored inks and a book on statistics, Henry is the perfect embodiment of his own idea of a col- lege boy. We may ha e different ideas, but who WDuld try to convert Pro- fessor Johnstone? 27 T. Canby Jones. Well. Tgh. where did thee get that awful green coat At? That ' s a fine way to be a Black Quake. ' However, in spite of Fisk ' s colorful Ethiopian .influence Beans, at heart, is a practical Quake, open- minded, thoughtful, tolerant, and quiet — except, of course, when he ' s driving that chugging, peeping, four-cylindered Model A — Reulah. His senior year, after having been engaged in leadership work at the Ardmore swinging a mean sledge on the College Service Project, and kicking a hefty right on the J. V. Soccer field, he took over the running of the C harity C hest. His mercurial afTections have bounded from Bryn Mawr to Oberlin, then from Media to .• ' but his basic good nature never seemed permanently shaken. As for the future — who can tell? But whatever, we can hear T. Canby ' s nasal drawl, and feel him straining with aching fingers to pull weighty words out of the air to get across his Luntian history or his T. R. Kellian philosophy. Dick Kay. Dick ' s extracurricular interest centered around the Glee Club and the fenc- ing team. As the quartet ' s second tenor, he managed to attend all the concerts and (for the most part) to sta - on the right key. Life ' s Darkest Moment for Dick was to be told once that he was a half tone low. The fencing team nearh- drove Manager Kay into the doghouse on many occasions, but the stalwart Philadelphian pulled through these complex situations with few battle scars. Perhaps Henri Gordon, the coach, knew him hest. Planning a medical career, Dick nevertheless thought it best to complete the A. C. S. chemistry requirements. But medicine or chemistry ' are only a means to an end, and with Dick the object is boating; sailboating and or motorboating. He is at his best when discussing problems of repair and construction, or when arguing the relati ' e merits of different outboards. 28 Malcolm Kirkpatrick. This fugitive from (liarUs All. is has hreonu ' thf social phcnomi ' iion of thi ' Class of 1942. Few of us will ever forget this blithe person of the blue convertible, thedel ' inna wardrobe, the Cham- pagne breath, thi- mortgaged aeroplane, the pseudo-coon coat, the quest for the Commis- sion and for Marian. Ptrha])s one of our most ivid memories of Kirk is seeing him sitting on the floor before final exams cutting oi)en the i)ages of his textbooks. Possessed of an inordinate good himior every crisis was metb a neatly turned epigram and a crooked little smile. The eternal optimist in lo e was our Kirk. .None dared so strongly to u])- hold the essential goodni-ss, na ' the eqiuilit -, of women! Those da s when the sociologist o ercamc t serious student, the dei-p thinker, the ascetic. Bui not he playl oflt ' U. saw the Ted Lawrence. Somebo dy once charac- terized Ted as a ( .reek god: and perhaps it is in this guise that he is best understood. Now consorting with his fellow deities in the Olympian spaces of Barclay Tower, now pierc- ing the Stygian gloom of the Chem Lab, ever sharing in the merr - laughter of the gods, he is Pan incarnate. As a wing-footed Mercurv, he never fails to show up with the Trib at 7:30 every morning. And Eros himself could do no better than to kiss all three Kelly sisters in one evening. Ted ' s life is a testimonial to the efticac - of the Golden Mean. Arising regularly with the rosy-fingered dawn, he devotes his morning to leisurely classes and idle work. Of an afternoon he relaxes by shooting a lazy rubber of bridge or engaging in a brisk round of slip-practice behind Barclay. Come nightfall, and Ted is generally reviewing the latest at the Suburban. Neither Corp Scholarships nor a responsible position on the News haw swaNcd his determination to lead a well-regulated life. 29 Jim Magill. Big Gun, Jarring Jim, Iron Man, etc. etc., carried on in the Magill tradition, only more so. Rhinie year, Jim played on Pop ' s J. V. ' s. Ever since then he has confined himself to strictly high class per- formances on the varsities every season. Jim did his job well as football captain in senior year. Few will ever forget his dashing back and forth while backing up the line: if he ' d had a whistle, he might have been mistaken for the Paoli local. But don ' t think our P is dumb in the head like most athletes, no-sir-ee, Bob! The several cliciues of cosmopolites have bid franticalh- for his company and approval without stint. Jim just shrugs and indulges in their mad-waggeries as the spirit moves him. He ' s eciually at home in the bridge-and-absinthe set, the Hell- let ' s-go-to-a-movieites, and excites the bravos and admiration of all by his brilliant tactics and logic in the Penthouse Debating Society. Phineas did much for those around him. He has proven a mentor and tutor to many. Falconer and Aldridge got their poise and polish only through Jim ' s coaching. jumps ahead of his work, after pulling the chess clul) Swarthmorons), if you go }oii never have any trouble Malcolm McGann. If New England integrity is represented anywhere on this campus, it is represented by our leading authority on opera and naval power who signs his interminable term papers with an angular Malcolm H. McGann, Jr. None of Mac ' s friends would trade him for fifty ordinary mortals; the tragedy is that he has kept his light under the successive comparative bushels of Merion, Founders, and the Language House. But Mac explains that any dorm is something of a bushel, and you might as well pick a good one. We asked him once if he would let us in on the secret of how he gets out to so many shows and still manages to keep three or four whole The point is this, he said (he was washing up through another petrifying battle with some tough up to a Br n Mawr dance early enough in the fall, studying the rest of the year. 30 _- Phil McLellan. If the McClellan of 1862 , flBHil „ tailed because he was ever waiting to go for- ward, the McLellan of Haverford 1942 will succeed because he is never waiting but forth- with proceeds with pace set and determined and a rather business-like look on his face. The smiles on his face come from the miles of his hel|}tulness. Especially is his effervescent radiance felt at the breakfast table in the morning where, as a waiter, he gives his super service with a smile. Always good natured, he is the victim of many of the waiters ' jokes. Stalwart tackle on the football team, he has been noted for thinking while in action. In the winter Phil was an indis- pensable link on the Day Students ' basketball team, especialK ' during his junior year. His athletic season is rounded out in the spring by his hurling the discus for Pop. Not only did his joy of dancing reveal itself on the dance Hoor, but also in his hard work on the ' ic Dance Committee. As a Sociology major, Phil is tops. P ' acing the realism of realistic realit ' all of his papers are saturated with a typical sociological approach. Bill Meldrum. We were prepared, at first, to l;e a bit awed by the presence of the son of our herein-honored favorite professor, but Bill immediately put us at our ease. Being a day student, he had his commutation problems (no doubt!) which seemed suc- cessfully to have been solved by the familiar Zephyr seen whipping around school these past jears. Long a mainstay of the Main- liners when they were under the genial t ranny of Cheerful ( harlie Fisher (that bright spot in the dreary morass of e. -Hav- erfordiana), W. B. M., Jr., has now turned over the music-making to his brothers, and is concentrating upon duplicate bridge. Ad- vanced Organic, and a very attractive brunette. As this year ' s football manager. Bill was more active and efficient than any of the rest we remember — one good reason for the team ' s best showing in many years. He ' s -a_. good man, Meldrum! Probably even did _hi_s own C hem homework . . . 32 Robert Miller. A man of few words. 15(il) is al a s rhosrii w lu ' ii pi ' opli- want things done. He, too, is an excellent athlete. Modest as all gct-fnit. Rob has piled up an enviable record for liini ' -clt ' during his tour years here at Haverford. While busily engaged in sports the year round, he has still managed to keep the Corp scholars oil ihe jump, lest they tumble from their cx.iUed height. .And yet, as one of the elite Penthouse Bo s, Bob has had a whale of a good time, in spite of his hard work. From the point of iew of human interest, we might add that Bob is the third in a succession of fine brothers who will someda - be able to form their own Haverford Alumni .Association. We understand that Bob intends to inter the Xav - after graduation. If so, we feel sure that the grim determination and will- to-win that Bob has so often displa ed in his activities here at school, will doubtless cause the enem ' no end of worry. Best of luck to you. Bob! Paul O ' Connor. . n Haverford man who has attained such heights as Corporation Scholarships and Phi Beta Kappa keys, especially when majoring in a science, usually brings to mind the horn-rimmed spectacles, drooping shoulders, black two-button suits, and sallow comple. ions of the men you ' ve barely glimpsed as they hurried from the library to their rooms with eight or ten large and dusty books under their long and stringy arms. Now, O ' Connor, he has seen more than one Corporation Scholarship; he can dangle a Phi Bet key with the best of them, but beyond that the comparison proves slightly more than misleading. For Paul is one of those happ ' and rare combinations of contradic- tions: the brilliant brain and the pleasant personality; the scientific whiz and the well read and rounded literary- aesthete; the powerful concentrator .and the easy relaxer. Officially, he rooms and bones in the recesses of Lloyd; artualh ' he is to be found bandying flashy small talk across a well-worn bridge table with the Merion Mawlers. N dl 1 33 Chuck Olson. We could rave about the Sahib (Hind, ureat white lord) along any lines you desire, but the most exciting side of Olse ' s existence is painted in three colors, blonde, brunette and red-head. The only failure on his books is the celebrated upset on the Paoli local. It was on this occasion that ( huck dropped a match book with instruc- tions to call Ard. 2147 at 2 P. M. into the lap of an amused blonde. The cutie must have lost it though, because Chuck waited till five with no results. He ' s still allergic to phones in the afternoon. The chickens who have a j ' cn for the body beautiful will seek no more after meeting Olse. With four years of foot- ball as a sticky-fingered end, many seasons as a Merion AU-Star basketballer, and as ])erhaps the most outstanding javeliner of the suburban areas, Chuck has become well zusammenge- schlungen. Fighting in alleys and pla ing shortstop on the Manna ' ou- know-whats have rounded out the figure divine. P Courts Oulahan. History alone will be able to ])ass judgment on Editor Oulahan. With all the evidence before us — gay parties, editorial campaigns, sleepless nights, corpora- tion scholarships, a second-hand Plymouth coupe, frequent trijDS to Bryn Mawr, innum- erable discussions in Roberts Hall — we cannot issue a verdict. Let it suffice for the moment to say that he was one of the most active members of the class. In the race for the editorship of the News he outstripped his , Mfe _ competitors. It was done by diligent, un- I flk l H ceasing newsgathering and feature writing, r -iaa B H ' ' with the help of his 1932 automobile with a 1935 motor in it. Courts ' talents have not been restricted to the journalist ' s tasks, however, for he was class president Rhinie ear, and has been active in debating and on the Student Council. A man of action, we say, whose influence has been felt by almost every group at College. With his whole career centered around newspaper work, we may expect to find Courts twenty- five years hence in the editor ' s office of the New York Times. At least it ' s not outside the realm of possibilitN ' . ....i |f .« Dave Poole. Good morning! . . . For four years the l.lo d boy s have stunil)lf(i sleepily out into the pre-breakfast mist to be met by this disgustin.a:ly cheerful cr - accompanied by a jovial slap on the back and a much too smiling face. Incurable author of this annoying little habit — Dave, expo- nent of the vigorous life; this in spite of the fact that he regularly burns early morning oil in pursuit of the fifth dimension. A perennial class officer and gentleman miler, Dave ' s good looks are matched only by his flawless running style as he and Falconer fly around the track with easy poise and considerable success. PatientK ' and with considerable gaiety he will expound for hours on his almost per- fected rocket ship. His ambition is to design airplanes. And if we can judge anything by the bewitching curves plotted by Dave on those ' ic Dance posters American pilots will soon be flying planes with sex appeal. ' !i ' Thor Rhodin. Thor ' s ancestors used to conquer England ev ' cry spring; and there ' s something of the old Viking ruggcdness about his personality. But the centuries have so distilled his Scandinavian Ijlood that it is im- possible to imagine him in the likeness of his savage forebears, who at this moment arc un- doubtedly chuggalugging their mead in ' al- halla. For Thor is above all a gentleman. Thor ' s civilized accomplishments include an erudite master - of the English language in its purest form — that is. as it is spoken at Ebbetts Field ; a game of bridge marked by a suave and casual manner of bidding slams; and a conveniently lenient attitude toward Collection-cutters. He flies a mean airplane; and is frequently to be seen dropping water-bombs on Barcla - for practice. His knowledge of ( hemistn,- is as impeccable as is his appearance just before one of his periodic soirees at Mar • Ellen ' s home. These arc the things that make us believe that Thor has tamed the wild blood in his veins, and has renounced the saga of the North in favor of a scholarK- and sane existence within the College walls. d 35 Ken Roberts. Out of the depths of the (linini; liall, out of the blare of backward and shameless frivolity, there rose that noble head. Strong men drew back, women swooned, babies shrieked, but the preliminary clapping at the leader ' s table soon quieted the throng. The bald one was about to speak. Was our leader going to take someone to task at this inopportune moment.- ' What momentous thought lurked behind that high, bronzed brow? All at once, a tremendous, awestruck sigh broke trom the ery depths of the assembled multitude. The hero had permitted that most desired of things ... a glimpse of his profile! There was that classic nose, that strong jaw. that wide, generous mouth, all as it had been in his picture as captain of the soccer team on the front page of the News. Put now he was facing us again. He was about to speak! The clapping at his table had ceased . . . the mouth was opening! . . . Suddenly, someone sneezed. A freshman laughed foolishly. The spell was broken. Spoons again clattered. Conversation resumed its normal course. No one heard the announcement. Paul Saxer. Paul is remembered by the class, and particularly b ' his fellow chemistry students, as a hard worker who always had plenty of time for bull sessions, intramural sports, and varsity baseball. His regular at- tendance at campus events belied his status as a da - student. Underneath the joyful, carefree manner that has made Paul well known at College, lies a more serious attitude which is evidenced by his admittance into Fhi Beta Kappa last year. Paul ' s interests are varied, but swing bands ( solid stuff ) and the fairer sex seem to be near the top of the list. Other diversions come in for their share, including a job in the Chemistry department. But on the average day Paul can be found in the organic laboratory, casually stirring some bright-colored, foul-smelling concoction, while he discusses the news of the day with T. O. and some of the boys. Or if you happen to catch him in the quantitative laboratory ' , and ask him what he ' s doing, Sax will radiate with jo - and reply camphor cryoscopy. It ' s research. 36 -m., i Charley Schaeffer. A m st(r to many, yet ti) ( ' lost ' associates, one ot the jolliest Dtitchmi ' ii in Pennsylvania, Charley is essen- tially a very nice gent. M stery is used he- cause of his rather secluded life, which has been si)ent a a from the rest of campus ac- tivities, and which has led many to misun- derstand him. Harclax ' inh.ilntant from ' va ' back, taker of profound nates, and [producer of even more monumental typewritten copies of certain courses in carbon compounds, he has maintained a purposeful path toward fulhllment of his famih- heritage of medicine. Thus attainment of this goal meant days con- sisting of around between the Chem and Bug labs, and evenings spent perfecting the touch system over a Royal. Ensconced behind a bastion of sugary goodies such as only a Lehigh County cuisine [iroduces, he could well afl ' ord to be content while more carefree, equalK ' hungry, less fortunate classmates shoved nickels across Coop counters for post-Clement indulgences. Everyfjody could see roomie Abbott ' s waistline acquiring noticeable circumference this year, and not because of his store committee position either. Dave Sensenig. Fulfilling the Hollywood- inspired requirement of being tall and dark, rather affable and easy-going, and given to wearing e.xpensive tweeds, Dave holds tena- ciously to the Main Line norm. Probably a bit more seriously inclined than his fellow townshippers, he ne ertheless symbolizes thein in e.xternal appearance, especially in tails. Avid enthusiast of the Uuck and things organic, he is enraptured at the thought of the body as a perpetual marvel of Chemistry. Accordingly, one is likely to be buttonholed at any time, and the ensuing discussion may range all the wa ' froin the process involved in the fermentation of sugars during body metabolism to the latest alues at Browning King ' s, a fact somehow related to physical well-being. One observed datum never yet explained is how he can continue to stuff himself with Schaeffer pastry, and still remain slim, but the odds are two to one that he will work out this problem in time also. Pressure on W ' ellesley results in frequent moanings about the length of time involved in becoming an earning medico. 37 Hank Skerrett. There is no mistakini; W. 11. W. Skerritt, Jr., wliiTi he sweeps, as majestically as his not overly elongate ph si(iiie permits, across the campus, the rim of his brown and battered fedora ri ' liictanti absorbing the smoke froma jauntiK- tilted pipe. This, then, is the jiower behind whatever Republican machine siir i i-s on tlu ' Haver- ford grounds, the cutter of classes galore who still achicNcs a moderately respectable avt ' r- age, the chronic day student who has threat- ened for y( ars to start living on the campus and who m,i have made good his threat by the time this appears. Hank ' s home in Wayne has been a perfect refuge for a legion of Haverfordians; here the red-head presides over a bridge table, or runs to the kitchen for more ice, as his guests peek happiK- at each other ' s cards, sing old ballads around the fire, or discuss an thing remotely discussable. Then there is the Chewy station wagon, initialed SAC for obscure reasons, which has shuttled thousands of Henry ' s contemporaries to the Straw, hitehall, and neighboring bright-spots. Donald Chapman Spaulding. Don has come a long w-ay since Rhinie year. When he dwelt in the shadow of Walt Fal- coner. Sophomore year saw the emergence of a new — a better Spaulding. He made Merioii Annex his headquarters and came under the influence of Bob Hecht, Tiny Smith, Dick Potter, and the never-to-be-forgotten Sam McCulloch. This might be called his proba- tionary year, for when Don became a junior, he established himself as a sure-fire, full- fledged, devil-may-care Merionite. Ah, those happ ' , carefree days of cliches, diletantisms, long week-ends and ten-cent tiuarts of Old Anthem. How we wish we had them back! We would let things go at that excej t that Don experienced yet another metamorphosis, up in his room and grew a moustache. What can ' t even see him any more because of that manl - growth. Also he has taken to actually reading books — thousands of them. We disapprove of this. While we spend most of our time getting what we want out of college, Don is making himself a howling success!

His interest and ability in languages apparently never waned, for in his Senior year we find him the pride and joy of the French depart- ment (and, we might add, the only major), living among that fast set in the International Language House.

Calvinistic Jake has come to us from that glorified smudgepot, Pittsburgh, swinging a fencing saber like Carrie Nation swung her axe. Easy-going, sin-loving Haverfordians have been known to throw the darn thing out the window at the dour disapproval of the Lowland Scot. Sometimes Jake took things in his own hands and threw them out of the window himself. Somehow we feel that in Jake alone of the class there are the good old-fashioned solid qualities of the Puritan. Perseverance and dogged determination designate Jake. A well-run life, a decent life, a respectable lite!

Danny is the mentor of that stellar whist -combo known as Starr and Weaver, Offices in Merion Hall, third floor back. An untiring fabricator of bidding SNsti ' uis, quaint and complex, he has never been known to go down more than 30,000 points in one evening; but his most charming attribute is that he will never admit defeat. You just can ' t do it without the cards. Ofttimes in the morning, when the raveled sleeve of care has been knitted, purled and tied off, you may be awakened by a silvery serenade in the bathroom which is none other than the versatile Dan running through the graceful lilts and cadences of his morning madrigal. Dan lacks the profundity of the Basin Baritone, so he blushingly contents himself with the role of Toilet Tenor. Jack Wise. In Wise ' s high-school year- book, there was a somewhat sententious adage: John Hicc Wise, as the name im- plies. With due consideration for the general level of intellect exhibited by a high school, we must say that this comes close to hitting the n. on the h. We have watched Wise, during four years in Merion, gradually nnencumber himself of foolish habits, until two of the chief things left (probably the two things, but t ' haven ' t askt-d him) are a burning zeal for the (hem Lai) and for Lansdowne, Pa. We might sa -, with all desire to be kind, that ' ise does not go to the latter place to harangue Professor Teaf. Jocular Jock they call him around Merion, al ,u s read - with a brick or other Ijlunt instrument if anyone wakes him up a minute before 7:40 A. M. And we have seen strong men weep with agony when the bidding got out of hand along in the small hours of the morning, and Wise turned on the luckless fool a glare which can best be descriljed as baleful. Never one for the pomp and circumstance of this world. Wise has a sport coat which he assures us was cut from the seat of a Paoli Local. Frolicsome fellow, this Wise. 43 Scott Worrall. Scotty is known on the football field as the perambulating dis- location. Hinging his limbs about with abandon Winfield would charge the enemy line inflicting bruises and sundry injuries with his flying limbs , . . Unfortunately Scotty also carried this habit into the intra- mural basketball league. xAccordingly he rang up a total of more personal fouls than did even Butcher Childs. Too much cannot be said about the famed Worrall approach to the more serious phase of college life. We refer of course to Scott ' s numerous Harcum Blitzkriegs. Armed with a blush and a bon mot- especialh- a blush — Scotty would soon ha -e all the more desirable secretively snipping locks of his hair for their hope chests. Scott - is the bov who in Grammar School was trapped by the girls in the cloakroom and simply smothered with kisses. LOST SHEEP To close the Senior section without mention of some of the E. - ' 42 ' s would be amiss. Who can ever forget Dick Potter who was everybody ' s idea of Cafe Societ -. Hank Lodge of the nimble fingers and the Bohemian turn of mind. That incomparable Southerner, Sam McCulloch, an owlish Rabelais for whom the Confederacy ever lived. Dave Chambliss, the rhetorical wit who was our idea of a real Southern gentleman. Phillip Mayer who brought a little bit of Harrow to Haverford. Ace cricketer and ruddy fellow Ratcliffe. Phil Minor with his affable greeting. Dick Mayer and Bob .Stepitoe, socialites now sporting battle dress. Jack Crawford whose mathematical mind was true genius. Med school in Senior year claimed Fox, Lewis, Flick and Farquahr. Dave and Molly always did make us feel just a little tender to look at them. Nichols took a breather in the Navy for a while. One of the more accom- plished of our Thespians was Rex King. Rex also had accomplishments in other lines. Dave Fales seemed to think that Princeton had more to ofler which just goes to show how wrong people can lie. Frazier is flying a patrol bomber for the Navy now. Thalheimer hit the road and ended up at Reed College. Strasbaugh had an unfortunate encounter with illness and couldn ' t make it back Senior Year. Kunkel decided to spend his time in (Hiaker work. 44 We ' re ' 44 Tin- Class of 1944 picked up where they had left off last June and during ihe fn ' st hall ot the new college ear have contiiuied to pia -a leading jjart in campus activities. The class was augnu lUcd li - five new men, four of whom transferred from other colleges: William M. ' jausig from Harvard, Richard II. W ' .uren from DartmoLilh, Robert W. Hill from Marvland and Allen C. Hamilton from . mhcrsi ; .Mfrcd l)oyscn has returned to I la i ' iidrd after a year ' s absence. In September l-.llswoiih C . Alvord of Washington, I). ( ., was elected president and tharles M. .Mathias of Frederick, Maryland, vice-president of the class. Robert B. Day and Samuel E. Stokes, Jr., were chosen secretary and treasurer respectively, with Jodie Dee Crabtree, Jr., William R. McShane and James H. Worl on the E. ;ecutive Committee. The sophomores ' most spectacular claim to fame during the fall sports season came when Joe Jordan, hard charging guard, was chosen on the .All- State Third Team of Pennsylvania football players. Dave Stokes held up the ilass honor equally well on the soccer field by scoring a total of six goals to win third place in the high scoring division for the Middle Atlantic Loop. In .iddition to Jordan, John Amussen, Spencer Stuart, Dee Crabtree, Bill Conn and Jack Hough won letters in football and Bud Grier and Jim Shipley- were awarded nimierals. Arnold R. Post, who scored three goals during the season, Tom Elkinton and Gilbert H. Moore, Jr., as well as Stokes, were soccer lettermen. George Cocks and Bob Day turned in good performances on the soccer field and won their numerals. A word here for the hard-working managers! James H. Worl, H. Craig Sutton, Jr., and Charles E. Fo.k, Jr., worked hard and seldom missed a day of practice. Completing the roster of fall sports, Wolfgang H. I.ehmann and Bill McShane were regulars on the Cross-Country squad. or were the sophomores inactive in literar - pursuits. Ellsworth . l ' ord and William L. Hedges were on the board of the Stack. George D. Hopkins, Richard H. Warren, Daniel E. Davis, Jr., John M. Krom, H. Rover Smith, Jr., and John T. Hough were on the editorial board of the College News. Donald H. Baird was assistant Sports Editor with George E. Bair and Charles E. Fox, Jr., as his associate editors. On the Business Board were Wolfgang H. Lehmaiiii, David L. Marshall, Patrick Robinson, Richard M. Watkins and James 11. Worl. Robert B. Day was an associate photograi)hic editor. . t the stall elections in January, John Krom, Richard W.irren. Daniel Davis and George Hopkins were named N ws Editors for the coming year. .Sophomores took part in two stage productions this fall, one at Haverford and one at Bryn Mawr. James C. Phiden, John Frantz and Seymour Alden appeared in the Br ii Mawr Players ' production of Sta c Door on December 5th and 6th. In Ha erford ' s own Roberts Hall, Walter Hollander donned the Nazi uniform of Otto Horcht for two nights in Claire Booth ' s Margin for Error, a Cap and Bells production. There were other activities less in the public eye. Perhaps we should have 45 mentioned the Corporation Scholars earlier in the article to avoid the sus- l icion of subordinating academic to athletic achievements. Robert Day, Ellsworth C. Alvord, Jr., Donald H. Baird and John Frantz are the four top ranking scholars. Henry H. Gray, John W. Clark and Elmer H. Funk, Jr., have been active in the Friends ' Service Project. Gray has been studying the problem of nutri- tion as well as partaking of more strenuous physical work and Clark and Funk have been studying sanitation. On Friday, December 12, the sophomores joined the seniors in sponsoring a dance. C. ' ebster Abbott headed the committee of sophomores that did most of the organizing for the afTair. The others on the committee were Frederick A. Curtis, Jr., Seymour Alden, Gerald E. Myers and David E. Stokes. Shortly after we returned from the Christmas vacation, events took a much more dramatic turn. Bill Tausig, after four months in our midst left to drive an ambulance in Libya with the British American Ambulance Service. At the date of writing none of our class has been drafted and this has been our unique contribution to the war effort. This is not used here in the neuter sense to refer to Mr. Tausig, but to the gallant act of devotion on the part of our class in relinciuishing one we held so dear. Winter sports cauiLilU the .soiihoiuorcs a.i;.ini pilthin in to augment the rosters in every department. Bus Alvord and Arnie Post added con- sideralile strength to tlie wresthng team. Kdnumd Goerke, Jr., and Henry S. Vila did their part for the s(|uash and .Seymoiu ' Alden for llie fencing scjiiads. One sophomore only shone in basketball and that one was Daniel K. Miller — who saw considerable service imtil someone inflicted a gash over his left eye in the Drexel game and put him out of commission for the last and the biggest contest — that with Swarthmore. At any rate the sophomores contributed nothing to the losing of that tilt (we prefer to make our assertionson this score in a negative way). John Amussen ' s services were lost to the basketball sc[uad at the outset of the season. In another activity little in the iiublic eye a sojjhomore played a vital part throughout the half ear. Paul Bolgiano, a member of high standing in the Nautical t lub, brought his dinghy in second only to a Drexel sailed boat at the quadrangular meet at Princeton on October 19. In short, sophomores inanaged to mingle pretty much into everything that first half of the 1941-42 college year and to those mentioned above as well as to the many we did not call attention to is due much of the credit for the keeping alive of the Haverford spirit. Jack Hough. 47 This is ' 43 THE keynote to the juniors is found in two names — Anderson and Zander. Neanderthal Ned is near the top of the class alphabetically, he has amassed Corp scholarships perennially, and he came through this spring with the editorship of the News. Then there was Doug Zander who breezed through Freshman year in a cloud of women, automobile accidents and in- numerable glasses of milk-, and hasn ' t been heard from since. Everyone else falls in between somewhere. After Freshman year the class settled into two main groups, those that lived in Center Barclay, and those that lived on the Gold Coast of Old and New Lloyd. Then there were those feiv that picked Founders, but — oh well, those things happen. Of course there are groups within groups too. The people on the first floor of Center Barclay, like Hunter, Cope, Gilbert, Hallet, Leventow, and Peterkin, are good examples. They profess a great interest in their studies, but actually they spend a majority of their time thinking up vulgar limericks and vulgar names for each other, and in pla ing darts. The second floor of Center has athletes and strong silent men like Shihadeh, Aleader, Mason and White- head. Moon and Bowman go into special classes of their own. In Lloyd, First Entry is easily the most astounding. In fact Dr. Watson might do well to send his -Soc. 2B boys around to investigate the living condi- tions, habits, and colors of such weirdly assorted people as Steins, Lee, Lip- pincott, Enck, Coffin, Wingerd, and their ex-officio members Cadbury and 48 Marsh. As you move on through Second and Third Entry the company gets more and more disthiguished until you reach Fourth Entry and MacCrate and Hogness. Finally, in 9th Entry the peak is reached with the skiing and social set composed of E ans, Ferris, Newell, Howe, and their Court Jester, that fabulous personality, charter member of the regs, Ezra Clark Stiles. All the rest fall into miscellaneous categories, somewhat like one of Charlie ' s stews. There are some good things, some bad, and some completely unidentifiable. Here we have Howard Lutz who works hard, makes no fuss, and gets things done. Bill Harris in his inevitable dungarees, and the remote control electric lock on his door. And Shepard, and Sevringhaus, and Coolidge, ,md Hainill, and Studwell. J. C. McG. Rhinles 1945 Style THEY called us Rhinies. ' es, that ' s what they called us. We were the Class of ' 45, Freshmen all. We hailed from many parts of the globe, from China, from Panama, and all points East and ' est. We were green. ' ' Pardon me, but where ' s 52 North Barclay? Where ' s the Dining HalK Where ' s Tenth Entry? These were topical of questions we asked, and here were typical replies: Another crop of dumb Rhinies. Come here boys, see what Fve found. You ' re just the fellow I ' m looking for, a nice clean-cut kid. There ' s a little matter of a piano in , rd tloor Barclay- to go to -Second Entr - Lloyd. He -, Rhinie, grab this chair! 49 We iiio ed in. e took o er all of North Barclax ' . We held parts of all the dorms — Lloyd, Founders, and all of them. We were initiated into the great Ha erford family by a Faculty Reception on a Thursday night, and when we came back to our rooms, we saw the results of a soph raid. We got them. How many in the pond. • We won ' t tell. Horrors! Classes began almost immediately ! Coming just from prep school, we were swamped by the work. We got little sleep those first weeks. Mr. Flaccus. Mr. Hogness. Yes, we met up with Customs. We were Rhinies from the big button to our flowing artist ' s bow, from black socks to our red and black skull caps. Rhinie Duty. Come here Rhinie. See this table! The bridge after Meeting. .Sometime in the memory of those first few weeks we had an election — first under the Students ' Council, then one under oiu own power. Stace W iddicombe was elected president with Jimmy Johnston as ice-president ; Johnny Cary, secretary; Kent Balls, treasurer. Art Jones, Sam Fox, and Bill Kirk were all to serve as Executive Committee members. With our officers elected, our lessons up (or down), and the football team hot, we were out to lick the world, including the sophomores. Speaking of the football team, there were Rhinies starring there, weren ' t there? Re- member Art, Bill, Chuck, Bob, Charlie, and all the rest. Stout Rhinies all. Soccer too. Those Rhinie jay-vees were in there pitching (that is to say, kicking), Beans, Bart, Beck, Johnny, Bill, Sam, and Ed. Collections, Meetings, The Coop, The Crumb, all now everyday places, events, and people. Quarterlies. Our first all-night sessions. Club founders, Rhinies starring, was a gala occasion (quote Haverford News) for the upper- classmen and an embarrassing one for the Freshmen. A class meeting broken in disorder o er the Constitution, then unanimous approval! Then quickly passed the second quarter ' til Christmas vacation. Home, family, food, and the best girl, or may be the best girl first. And did we need it. W ere we be- coming just a bunch of greasy grinds? Well, Christmas vacation certainly fixed us up just fine. HardK- were we back when, THUD!! Mid-years stared us in the face. I ose into our books. One more week, one more day, this is killing me, ' how many et? Vou lucky dog, finished so soon! Then after our little breather, the second semester started. We were right there with our Mid- Winter I3all, the Annual Frosh-Junior Dance. Eliot Broza funished the music; we, the decorations, the people, and the punch (what there was of it). Jim Schnaars, chairman of the dance committee, really did a swell job. Mark, Chick, Dick, Clark, Cran, and others previoush- mentioned. Some of these bo s stayed up all the night before. It was really wonderful though, with the class footing the bills. Then Kent with his Where ' re our dues? Along came election-time for second semester officers. The results were that Stace Wlddicombe continued in the presidency as did Jimmy Johnston in the vice-presidency; Arnold Ricks replaced Johnny Cary as class secretary. The three members of the Executive Committee elected were Sam Fox, Johnny Cary, and Bill Ambler. Remember those Rhinies who sparked the Basketball team, Ray, Jim, Art, Cran, Chuck, and that latecomer Chick . . . So the moving finger having written moved on into 1942 and the accel- erated program. S. H.

HAVERFORD NEWS UNDER the leadership of Courts Oulahan and Walt Falconer the Ha erford Xews managed to survive another year, in spite of the valiant efforts of its opponents. -Again the old sheet blossomed out with some new typography, and finally got around to omitting column rules on the editorial page (so people will read it). After bringing out a special issue for the Swarthmore game at a terrific financial loss, the business heads decided to charge the facult - the usual subscription rate. Managing editor Lawrence ser ed nobh ' as alumni editor, while Addoms did nothing except relieve the chief when he was suddenly called to W ash- ington on several occasions. Bob Miller headed the sports board, and was ably assisted by Bill Wingerd. Burns Brodhead also wrote sports. Falconer had Bud Bell, Heber Harper and Charlie Abbott as the nucleus of his staff. Gove Hambidge snapped the photos, but the engraver persisted in disguising them. Jack Elliott served as chief and sole member of the Press Bureau, which was tal-en over by ' ayne JNIosely, editor of the new Alumni Review. In all respects the board kept up the traditions of the News, and the usual number of complaints were received and tactfulh dismissed. The freedom of the press was defended by newspaperman Morley. 52 First Row: Lawrt-iicr, Whitehc-ail. Roln-rls, Aiiilonis. Second Row. han, Evans, Macrate, W ' orl, W ' iddirombe. Emi-r , Dorian, Uula- STUDENT COUNCIL THIS year the Student Council took on new responsibilities. I ' nder the leadership of President Roberts steps were made towards the elimina- tion of ambiguities as to the responsibilities of the members of the Students ' Association. The Women Rule was modified and efhciently ad- ministered by the Council. . resolution was passed clarifying the position of the ( Ouncil on infractions of the Liquor Rule. .Student (io ernment has many l)roblems but the Council has always succeeded in resobing the hardest of these with a mininuini ot ill feeling. Xe.xt ear, hitehead will take up where Roberts left off, and if the stu- dent bod ' shows the same unflagging support which it has showed on the whole for so long a time, our small government by the students will continue to be a model of democratic [)rinciples which the future will prove to be vital to the well-being of the country and of the world. The function which the Council performs on Campus is frequently misunderstood or ridiculed, but in the long run, the more mature among the undergraduate body come to recognize the iniperati e need and the deep significance of such a group, which is our con- tribution to deniocratic go ernment, and more than that, represents our faith in the future of such a go ernment . . . 53 A.

Margin for Error, a comedy melo- drama, hit the boards of Roberts Hall and set Haverford laughing at the ridiculous Mr. Schicklegruber. Three weeks after the fall of the Bataan defenses, each of us forgets the screaming headlines long enough to chuckle through three hilarious acts of Noel Coward ' s bright bit of nonsense, Hay Fever. Soon after these words are in print, those merry gentlemen, Gilbert and Sullivan, will sing and dance their way into our hearts with their beguiling operetta Patience. Cap and Bells gave us three grand shows this year, but more than that they made us laugh, and that is praise enough. Somebody has said that we can never resist those who amuse us (typist ' s note). A good many of our seniors have anmsed us, both onstage and off. On stage, Johnny Clark amused us as the irreverent reporter of Margin for Error; Ed Emery as the dry commentator, Lou Grier as nasal milkman, Hebe Harper as the loquacious professor, all amused us in Our Town. Dick Bauer amused us as the timorous policeman in Pirates of Penzance. Tim Haworth as the sage examiner of Outward Bound. Tom Cochran kept the books straight so we could afford to be amused. Ken Foreman ' s stage crew gave us pleasing sets — to them all, thanks for amusing us. 54 Addonis Dorian Poole Cope CLUBS PRESIDENT CADBl ' RV of the Biology Club abandoned this year the policy of cooperation with Bryn Alawr on field trips, a fact which ad- anced true science at the expense of a depleted enrollment. In fact, besides Cadbury, the Bug Club seems a sort of vague thing which goes to Florida on vacations and eats peanut butter sandwiches by the pond while the grebe goes floating past. The Bug Club, though quiet, has done a great deal for those who have had the interest to attend its meetings. President Neal Addonis of the C hem Club is the head man of a worthy organization which has devoted much time to the ad ' ancement of science among the undergraduates, having had se ' eral outside speakers as well as members of the Club itself give lectures. The Math-Physics Club, with Wolfgang Franzen as President, has also been able to have speakers at special sessions of their Club meetings, and the Engineering Club, headed by Dave Poole, has given its time chiefly to outside speakers and specialized work of various sports. Henry Gray ' s Radio Club is still in rather embryonic state, but several programs have been given over the air already, and the Club promises well for the future. Cope ' s Inter- national Relations Club sought a solution for everybody ' s dilemma. All in all, the difterent clubs on campus have aided extremely in putting their members in touch with specialized parts of the different fields of study in which they are interested. 56 If H -.. pr 14. 4 14 - First Rou: Cary, Swfftser, Coolidge, Basscrt.

THE GLEE CLUB UNDER the able hands of Mr. Laflord, the Glee Club has steadily con- tinued its upward progress. In a year such as this, with transportation facilities practically at a standstill, it is really amazing that more con- certs than ever before were presented at an even wider range of hotels and colleges. The ' went to Buck Hill, Hood College, Harcum, Beaver and Haddon Hall in addition to the Home Concert. Also there were two performances of a Christmas .Service, and one of Mendelsohn ' s Elijah in conjunction with Br n Mawr. The season was topped off with two performances of Cilbert and Sullivan ' s Patience, also with Br n Mawr. This year, the Glee C lub has entered Ered Waring ' s National Glee Club contest, and we wish them all kinds of luck. Many of the fellows will be missed when they graduate. John A. Clark ' s basso profundo and Dick Kay ' s ringing tenor will be a great loss to the quartet. Dick Bauer, retiring president, who has sung baritone solos for four ears, will create a gap that will be er ' difficult to fill. In any case, we wish the graduates every success in all their future singing endeavors, and we want to congratulate them on a ver ' fine season. .S7 First Row: Miller, Johnstone, Kirkpatrick.

THE 1942 RECORD ABLE management on the part of Business Manager Johnstone and Advertising Manager Cochran saw economics in this year ' s Record and an increase in advertising revenue which resulted in a larger outlay for engravings. The editing was left to Kirkpatrick who did it about as well as he does anything else. Block, R rie, and Se Tinghaus were responsible in the main for the in- formal photography. R Tie also took many of the formal shots. This year ' s R?:cord is a somewhat unusual ])roduction, in that so many members of the class took part in giving it shape. W ' hat had jireviously been an activity confined to a select bunch became a type of free-for-all with every- one an editor of one sort or another, and everyone bandying their opinions right and left. Things got pretty chaotic at times, and the general confusion was a sight to behold, but finally, in the midst of the darkness, Kirkpatrick said, Let there be light! and so finally here is your record of Haverford College. 58 Roberts, Oulahan, Miller, Addoras, Bauer. FOUNDERS CLUB HI ' .RK we ha x ' the captains and presidents of canii)us teams and organ- izations. Not only that, but they have to have a number of other activities in addition to six)rting an 80 average, before they are [)er- mitted to join. By achievements alone, they ha -e made themselves worthy to become members of Founders Club. By having such a goal as this to aim for, in other words, by having a little material reward thrown out as a climax to individual achievement, a wider interest in college acii ities is encouraged, and herein lies the worth of the organization. And here are the fellows that made the grade. VIC DANCE COxMMITTEE UXDKR the leadershij:) of Bud Bell, the ' ic Dance Committee launched a program of more and better dances — with mi.xed results.

THE VARSITY CLUB THE arsit ' Club of Ha erford College was created in 1Q36 by a few members of the undergraduate body and Coach Roy E. Randall who felt there should be some organization on campus to aid and cooperate with the admi nistration in regard to the athletic program and to supply a source of friendship and social contacts for both student and graduate. Since then the club has expanded imtil now it is a group of students working to advance the interests of the college in every way consistent with the ideals of the institu- tion: to offer suggestions for the miprovement of athletics; and to further college spirit among alumni and undergraduates. The principal requirement for election to the club is the winning of an athletic or managerial letter in a varsity sport. The completion of each athletic year is celebrated by a banquet to which all Haverford men interested in sports are invited. 60 DEBATING COUNCIL F()SrKI l-;i) l)y their friendl ' faciill ' ad iser, Dr. Cleorge Montp-omery, tliioltlc ' d b I ' resideiil N ' eal Addoms, and geared into contests by Manager Alex Tonilinson, ihe I )ebaters at Haverford had an active season dcsjiite loss of lioth dcb.iicrs and deliating engagements because of the war. The forensic contests took to the air in two radio debates and carried their battles of words as far south as Baltimore and as far north as Amherst on their trips. Lack of a large audience never seemed to dim the enthusiasm (if ihc (iralors when arguing on the home front.

NAUTICAL CLUB Ml ( H to the complete surprise of everyone — especially the remnants of last year ' s phantom crew — the yacht club broke into full glory this s]3ring. Not only was the rather nebulous membership stabilized at 16 — Randall ' s orders — but more to the jDoint, after many years of talk, four dinghys took the water through the courtesy of the Corinthian V.

INTRAMURAL COMMITTEE THE boys in charge of intramurals have done an exceptionally fine job this ear, making it possible for many more teams to take part in a variety of sports. Soccer, volleyball, track, Softball, and football made up the main bod - of intramural athletics, but there was ping-pong, chess, tennis, and bridge all creeping around the side-lines. Burford, U ' hitehead, and Al- dridge had most of the headaches in organizing the teams, but after things got started, they ran smoothly and with a minimum of violence, verbal or other- wise.

The ups more than made up for the downs, however, for in our senior ear Coaches Roy Randall and Bill Docherty produced the best Haverford eleven since 1929, as one of the nation ' s highest scoring teams won five games while suffering two heart-breaking defeats. Freshman year saw a good team, capable of winning four against two close losses. The same cannot be said for sophomore ear, however, which saw the team able to garner only two ties in six games. The upswing came in our junior year, as Captain Jeff Hemphill ' s squad won three out of six games. Senior year, ably led by Captain and quarterback Jim Magill, we hit the top. A 45-7 romp over Allegheny started it. Susquehanna was the next victim, 27-0, but a thrilling 32-18 defeat by a powerful Wesleyan team fol- lowed. We came back to whitewash Johns Hopkins, 38-0, and sank Guilford, 26-0, in a sea of mud. Then came the outstanding performance of our four years at Haverford, as we stopped Hamilton and the great Jannone cold and romped away with a 20-0 victory. Unfortiuiately we were too keyed up for this contest, for the next week an underdog Swarthmore eleven upset us, 12-7. Our class seems to have been one of Haverford ' s best, in a football line. Captain Jim Magill played four years of varsity ball, receiving Ail-American mention in his last two years and ranking with th e nation ' s leading scorers, as well as doing a superb job as a quarterback and leader. Little George Warner and rugged Scotty Worrall were other backfield stalwarts; Worrall as the blocker, and Warner the climax man. In the line, Bob Miller, Tom 66 Cochran, and Dirk Brown saw throe ears of ri iilar st-rvico, while ( huck Olson, Phil McLcU.in, and Lee ( hilds all saw plent - of action. Most of our nicnidries are happy. Things we ' d like to forget — those laps around the field, pushing the sled, Wesleyan ' s Jim Carrier, and the Swarth- more game (and the morning after). Things we ' ll always remember — Magill ' s successful pass behind the goal line in Haverford ' s cherished 18-7 triumph over Lehigh junior ear, the first in 40 ears; Warner ' s naked touchdown run, which put the crusher on Hamilton; Brown, the mighty mite, playing sixty minutes of hard football ; Leake and our numerous gold bricks ; the whole line playing its greatest game in stopping the great Jannone cold; and Jordan, JMcader, Amussen, Stuart and the other underclassmen who helped make our senior year so successful.

Evans (mgr.). SOCCER FACED with championship shoL ' -hllini; after the Evans twins and their great 19.S8 season, sophomoric ' 42 placed six men on the varsit ' soccer team. Since then Ken Roberts, Ed Elaccus, Gord ' Howe, Dick Bauer, Al Dorian, and W ' iimer Dimham have been the objects of Gentle pride and caustic Redington loyalty. Highlight of that original ear on the big team was a thrilling 1-0 victory on a windswept, snowflaked Swarthmore field. Defense standout Roberts found consolation two years later for an intermediate 2-1 defeat on the Haverford campus when as captain he led a 2-1 victor}- over the Garnet on their home held last fall. Most enjoyable item oddly enough came in the least successful year. Although Cornell took last year ' s game, .?-2, consensus shows trip to Ithaca and back (mosth ' back) was unforgettable, though extremely hazy in spots. Ail-American bab ' brother Morris Evans kept ali e the famih ' tradition. Senior year found Dorian unable to pla - while doing a good job elsewhere; Coach Gentle, too, was .gone to the arm ' . Into the breech came ex-JV Tim Haworth with notable success, while Gentle-successor Redington snapped the whip and held the reins too. Long after memor - of coinitless laps around the field is gone, hovvev-er, the warmth of his soccer-banquet hospitalit ' will linger. 68 First Row: Shields, Shinn, Magill, Dorian. D. Miller, Boteler.

OUR four years at Haverford the record of the basketball team has been anything but enviable, but the Class of 1Q42 has contributed a great deal to the few -ictories the team has been able to score. George ' arner represented 1942 during all three seasons, while Jim Magill and Bob Miller were regulars for two of them and Al Dorian one. Gordy Howe and Ed Flaccus also saw service. Senior ear, Bill Docherty replaced Roy Randall as coach, and freshman prospects foreshadowed a good season. The loss of Captain George Warner to national defense hurt immensely-, however, and the team wound up with only three triumphs in thirteen games. Jim Magill succeeded Warner as cap- tain, with Dorian and Miller also seeing regular service. Though victories were few, outstanding individual performances were many. Captain Warner presented a brilliant record of high scoring and scrappy play, starting with his eleven points in 1939 ' s 33-22 loss to Swarthmore ' s great team, and ending with his eleven points in the second half of the 1942 triumph over Susquehanna. Afagill, injured all junior , ' ear, came back strong and his football tactics proved the team ' s greatest asset when the going was close. Dorian, though sometimes erratic, was a great loss to the 1941 team at midvears, and often brought the meager crowd to its feet with his flashy shooting and passing in the 1942 season. Miller, who carried the scoring bur- den with Warner in the victoryless 1941 ear, slumped badK- in 1942, but ended the ear with his best .game against Swarthniore. So the 1942 season ended with some pleasant memories and a well-founded hope for better teams in the near future. 69 First Ro2L ' : Moore, Saxer, Dorian, Ma;,;ill, M.

BASEBALL THE fortunes of baseball have not been kind to Haverford. For three years victory has been elusive, light hitting; the rule rather than the exception. This year the most promising looking group of all four years gives evidence of some real batting power. Seniors on the team include pitch- ers Al Dorian and Ken Roberts, and infielders Jim Magill and Paul Saxer. Draft requirements have taken last gear ' s batting champion and this year ' s captain-elect, George Warner. Flashy fielder and dependable clutch hitter, he will be missed, along with Gordy Howe, sidelined with a bad arm after three years of pitching. To be remembered are that beautiful 7-1 Dorian victory over Swarth- more two years ago, and the 0-0 rain-drenched freshman year deadlock. To be forgotten are numerous close ones which might have gone the other way if . . ' . Off the record were two memorable southern trips; fried chicken, the Skyline Drive, and the basement game rooms of Virginia State Teachers College. All the pitching wasn ' t done from the mound. Haunting thought for outfielders is the cry, Who ' s got it? Docherty swings, there ' s a little speck soaring out over the tennis courts, and the echo roars, Whassamatter, a anchored out there? 70 J l.

Pop Haddleton ' s track team, meeting stiffer competi- tion every year, has provided many of the athletic highlights of our era at Haverford. Though a streak of 30 straight victories ended in the middle of our sophomore ear, last year ' s team was a credit to the college, and this ear ' s should be even better. Freshman year, ably led by Harry Derr and Joe W ' ingerd, the team ex- perienced its fourth straight undefeated season, as Derr set a new college scoring record. Walt Falconer and W ' ilmer Dunham comprised 1942 ' s share of the team. The streak was shattered after three victories the next year, as Lehigh nosed out Captain Charley Fisher ' s team and Lafayette also beat the Fords. Last year Captain Sam Snipes ' scjuad won only three of seven meets, but Haverford ' s conquerors included irginia and Lafayette, Middle Atlantic champions. This year, as the Record goes to press. Captain Walt Falconer, who shattered the college half mile mark in 1940. leads a team which should do very well. Though Snipes, Herb Clement, Phil McClellan, .W Rogers, and Bob Miller, veterans of two seasons, are lost, returning stars include seniors Wilmer Diniham, Dave Poole, Jim Cary, and Chuck Olson; jimiors Morrie Evans, Hill Woodward, Fd Howe, Ceorge Rvrie, and . vrel Mason, and soph- omores Dee Crabtree, John . nuissen, and Howard Wood. 71 In glancinjj back over track in our stay at Haverford, several performances stick in the mind, both on and off the track. On the track there was the team ' s outstanding 99-27 shellacking of Swarthmore last year. We remember the Middle Atlantic victories of Wilmer Dunham and Morrie Evans in the high jump and low hurdles respectively, Falconer ' s smashing of the half-mile record in the Lafayette meet, and many well paced runs by Poole and Gary in the mile and two-mile. Oft the track, we recall co-coach Falconer tell- ing the boys a story to get them in the right mental frame, Rogers and his ice- cream cones, Olson and his injury, Moose and his numerous week-ends, Harper on the Viginia trip, and Pop, confusing his names but respected and admired bv everv member of the team. 72 BarthuluHn u .

M.I, WRESTLING N( )T the fortr of the (lass of l ' M2, hut certainN i potint source of ath- letic glory for Haverford, wrestling has come into prominence during these last four years. There were no Seniors on the squad during this past year, and only Dave Fox, now in medical school, and Roy Dye have represented the class in this activit - during other years. Principal event, of course, was the winning of the Middle Atlantic Col- legiate Wrestling Association Championship Junior year against a field com- posed of GettNsburg, Lafayette, Rutgers, Muhlenburg, and Ursinus. This record-breaking squad topped a string of eight consecutive dual meet vic- tories during the ritgular season with Ha erford ' s highest athletic achievement since the winning of the Middle . tlantic League Soccer title in 19.57. More recently, although not a serious competitor for the team crown, Haverford ne erthcless could claim two individual Middle .Atlantic ( hampions during the past winter in Bill .Shihadeh and Blac ' kie Joslin. 73 Firsl Rmc: Thomr-mi, ll.iuuciiuicl. 1 li i, sieiiir.. l- .i Gonifz. .Vc. ' Hr Roi, LoriMitzfii, AldL-n, FENCING ALTHOUGH still one of our least known sports, t ncing has been growing at Ha ' erford consistent!)-, and in each of our first three years at Haver- ford Coach Henri Gordon ' s team compiled a ver - creditable record. Nor was senior year any exception, as Captain John Fust led the team to victory in six out of nine meets. Captain Fust, who won twcnt out of twent -six bouts, was assisted in the sabre by John Thomson in our senior year, while Warren Anderson and Sam McCulloch helped represent our class in earlier seasons. The season ' s feature was a 14-13 triumph over Swarthmore, as Fust came through in the final round to maintain Haverford ' s record of never having lost to the Garnet in fencing. GOLF GOLF has not been one of our strong points. Throughout our four years, we ' ve been represented on the links by only one man. Bob Steptoe, who departed after two years. Through our first three ears the golf team has shown a record slightly under .500, but if I ' ncle Sam permits com- petition to continue, the presence of three veterans should presage an upswing this season. 74 Schnaars, Goerkc. Rocs- ler. Klaccus (Capl.)- CoHin, ' ila, Sensunig (manager). TENNIS ALWAYS good in the past, and like so man - Haverford sports, definitely looking up, tennis this year gives promise of real ability. Captain Ed Flaccus, sole Senior, is surrounded by a group of up and coming young- sters. When Bramall has to go hard to beat his number one man, then it ' s safe to bet that there ' s a ' Ford future here. Past highlights have been meager. Best of all were two southern trips, one to the l ' niversit ' of North Carolina, where the boys from Haverford had a little trouble with what is called the best college tennis squad in the country, but were in good spirits all the way. CRICKET CRICKET has been on the upswing during the four ears of the Class of 1942. Full schedules and a good record have made the gentlemen ' s game more than mere Ph s. Ed. credit. Fenn, Princeton, and Crsinus last Near fell in behind the Comfortmen in League play. Seniors Foreman, Guenther and Kirkpatrick are all well up on the batting order. The matches at German- town, Washington and Princeton were as fine socially as athleticallv. First Row: Marshall, Kirkpatrick, Grata (capt.), Guenther, Post. Second Row: Irving, Downing.

Mac gave us a burning stare, and courteously asked us not to waste his time, please. We didn ' t . . . Unfortunately, Uncle Felix was in Boston making the principal address before the American Academy of Something, so we merely assumed that his opinion of us was nothing if not high, very high ... It was Cap ' s verdict that we lacked that indefinable something known as 78 hustle, but a Li ' l pep would fix us up niceh ' . . . Moving on to the g .m, we were told by Burley Bill Docherty that the seniors were merely a bunch of ellow — t ' .■ ' !!, which we flatly deny here and now (we didn ' t have time to tell him then) . . . Doc Leake called us a bunch of gold bricks, and told us to get the hell out of the gym with those cleats . . . Coach Randall said he would be a suck-egg mule if we weren ' t a fine cooperative class, but he wanted a bounce pass . . . Hoping that our intellectual stature would be more appreciated than our physical prowess seemed to be, we toddled over to hitehall where we asked the good Doctor Snyder for his studied profes- sional opinion. Whirling about and gazing majesticalh ' out the window, he gave us not only his studied professional etc., but also a lovely view of one of the finest profiles on the campus . . . Mr. Montgomery, twirling his Phi 79 Beta Kappa key, said, Well, men, the are a fine group of men, men, which we thought was only honest . . . Dr. Oakley ' s cheery smile somewhat lightened the blow of his Not bad eggs, if you don ' t mind ihem fried, while Dr. Dunn misquoted Schopenhauer: The more I see of Haverford seniors, the better I like snakes. . . . Dr. Cadbur - could do no more than fling a brazen challenge in our teeth concerning mixed doubles tennis matches, and Sandy asked us to come down Sunda - night and talk it all over . . . Trek- king on towards the Union we were somewhat peremptorih ' asked to remove ourselves from the lawn by Doggy, only to find that Joe Bushnell was sweetly lolling in the arms of Morpheus, feet on the desk and unlit pipe dangling from his mouth . . . But our search was not to be called in vain, for we found Pop standing outside the senior entrance to the dining room asking poor Rhinies why they hadn ' t showed up for their badminton match. In response to our question, Pop was loquacious, to say the least, and in fact highly com- plimentary, naming several of the most outstanding Haverford men of the 80 last ten -oars, and thoii.L;htfull ' givin.u: tlicin all the honor of beint; members of the noble ( lass of ' 42. ' er -, very decent We asked Miss Bi-ard what sill- thoui;lit of us (on our way we saw professors Post and Kelle in the most charming ten nis lo,mier ), and it was her off-hand opinion that she had never seen so many boys cured of so many different diseases by the simple method of taking these Iittl( pink pills ever - two hours . . . Unfor- tunately, Mr. Lafford ' s comments, though doubtless inte-rt ' sling, were drowned out b - the roaring of the charging Ijeast which he had straddled, and Or. Flight ' s senlinu ' nts were beautiful l)ut rather too length - to be repro- duced in full here . . . Tired out and slightU discouraged, we consoled oursi ' lves with the gentle thought that, after all, wc had a pretty accurate and honest estimate of ourselves before we started out, that probably the good facultN ' had gotten out of bed on the proverbial wrong side that day, and that, all in all, both the - and we are happ -, happ ' men to have been so closely associated with such hajjpy, happ) men. 81 CLASS DIRECTORY CHARLES CONRAD ABBOTT R.
