cLAstLD lS BOOK - 5 THE LIBRARY = P OF HAVER FORD COLLEGE HAVERFORD, PA. PURCHASED FROM THE MARY WIST AR ' BROWN WILLIAMS MO. i 1947 ACCESSION NO. 1 11 THE 4 7 KEC ID PUBLISHED B V THE 5 E R I R CLASS HfiVGRFORD COLieCe HRVERFORD PEnnSVLVflnifl WILLIAM E. LUNT DEDICAT OON after his arrival at Haverford, the freshman came to know a new J a nd awe-inspiring term: the Jitter Session . If he himself did not have History I , his roommate did, and he saw the man who shared his room suffer through a weekly oral examination on the facts of English History. The freshman soon found, however, that the originator of these Friday morning tests was the finest lecturer he had ever heard, the fairest pro- fessor he had ever known. Under the thorough training of Dr. William E. Lunt, the newcomer learned how to take adequate notes and how to study and digest them. He found that Dr. Lunt always gave him every chance to express himself in class, and that the tall, distinguished-looking man behind the desk knew how to get at the student ' s knowledge of a subject. The men who will graduate this year realize along with members of the faculty and administration that William E. Lunt Is responsible in a large degree for the high scholastic standing Haverford has always maintained. His lectures rQ for them a study in perfection, and his rigorous training has helped them immeasureably. These seniors, then, would like to dedi- cate this, their annual, to that man In an effort to thank him in a small way for all he has done for them. A Di scussion atter Cla F R E THIS is the RECORD, the annual which is making its first appearance, with one informal exception, since 1943, when It was discontinued for the duration of the war. This year the graduating men are representatives from every class between the years 1940 and 1948. For that reason, no attempt has been made to write a class history. We leave that work for future RECORD Editors in years when the college has returned completely to normal. We feel that this should more rightly be called a pictorial record for the year 1946-1947 because of certain features which appear in the fol- lowing pages. The Inauguration, for example, has adequately been covered; a photographic calendar has been included. This book is an attempt to return the RECORD to the position it should occupy among extra-curricular activities here at Fiaverford. It Is not a perfect book, but It should provide the basis for a finer and fuller annual next year and In the years to come. The Editors Mli Jke JRecord presents the Seniors THE 1947 RECORD- JAMES F.

In the background, proceeding the week- end, Committees were formed and set in action. Carefully laid plans were executed. Invitations were sent to Alumni and delegates from a hun- dred and fifty colleges and universities. The campus was touched up for visitors. Holiday was declared. And on November 16. hHaverford witnessed one of those rare and impressive spectacles be- longing to the field of education, the academic procession. In the morning, following a meeting for worship, delegates, faculty and student re- presentatives began to assemble in the Union. Flashes of black, blue, yellow and scarlet were observed while the former two groups donned caps and gowns. At a given signal. Founders Bell began to ring with a measured throb. The column, double file, wound slowly around the walk In front of Lloyd and into Roberts hiall. The auditorium, filled to capacity, heard ad- dresses delivered by Rufus M. Jones, Dr. Frank Aydelotte and the new President, Gilbert F. White. Luncheon was held in the Gymnasium and the day was turned over to the visitors, with several conferences conducted on the side. An aftermath of publicity appearing In metropolitan papers reminded those who had departed for the weekend that Haverford had proudly In- stalled her fourteenth president. GILBERT F. WHITE 45 - ny FflCULTV The Inauguration v as over. Gilbert White had finished his Basic Training under Mac , who had held the college together during the difficult war years. Looking a little older, Mac ' had seen the student body dwindle to but a handful, had seen the Army come and go and now had the satisfaction of seeing a host of returning students take up their studies again at hiaverford. Among the new members of the faculty were Messrs. Braatoy, Meade ( At ease, gentlemen! ' ), Reid, Coogan, Paullin, Jon- ites, Uftord, Sass, Duisberg, Cherry, and Dick Warren, from the class of 44. Haver- ford was still boasting of the highest ratio of professors to students in the country. J. Dune, for instance, had only 138 entries in his American Literature race. Dr. Ira Reid drew a mere 90 in Soc. la. Jeeter, adviser to the RECORD, took the fatal leap in November. After the terriffic barrage of tests ad- ministered to new and returning students had spent its fury, someone came up with the suggestion that Abe, himself, be made to run the gauntlet of his own handiwork. Dr. Flight gave the Dean a Christmas pre- sent — a nice, big bundle of stationery. To be original, it bore the name of Dr. Flight and not that of Dean Hoag. Dr. Reid ' s knowledge of detective stories highlighted the Quiz Program at Collec- tion. Other members of the faculty ap- peared on WHAV, and students were given a chance to put their mentors on the spot. Our cameraman caught CO., minus his cogar; Dr. Sargent turned up at the same tea minus his briefcase full of notes. He appeared at an English seminar a few weeks later disguised as a penguin. Ben Cooper relaxed from his coaching duties long enough to be pictured with Mrs. Cooper and Senor y Senora Asensio. 1946-47 saw many Activities Left to right: Jacob, Collins, Chapman. Adams. Wires.

STUDenis ' council The main taslc ■facing the Fall session of the Students C:--: -Oraed by Spence Stuart, was the aajui ' Tien ' o ' the functions of student government to the changed conditions of the College wrought by a sudden postwar influx of students. That which had worked for one or two hundred was speedily found to be imprac- tical for an enrollment verging on five hundred, and the Cour.cil was for the most part occupied with reconversion. Time was nevertheless found for the initiation of several constructive pro- grams. The Council itself was extended by the ap- pointment of a number of deputies with limited powers. Foundations were laid for the perpetu- ation of the War Memorial Scholarship. An Entertainment Committee was appointed to guide the growing social life of the campus. And a student committee which studied the problem of the Union submitted a report which has become the basis of that building ' s renova- tion by the Administration. Retrenchment was necessary in the Honor Sys- em when an obvious defect in the operation of Section IV forced the Council to recommend to the President that it be removed.

STUoenis ' council The main concern of the Students Council during the second semester was restrengthening the Honor System. Mid-year exams were weath- ered in good shape, and the Council considered this a good start. They also turned their atten- tion to the matter of class work and succeeded in having standards regarding class work distrib- uted by the professors. Library reserve books were another trouble spot, and steps were taken to decrease the number of missing books. At this writing the semester was still young, but It was possible to cite two other major en- deavors. One was to attain a more systematic and equitable distribution of the Student Activi- ties Fee whereby the various clubs and organiza- tions would receive allocations in proportion to the strength of their contributions to extracur- ricular activities. Another was to arouse greater interest in the War Memorial Scholarship and to establish a means of raising money for it. Under the able leadership of President Pat Robinson, the spring Council did its best to supervise student government, finance, and af- fairs. Pat Robinson • m Left to right: Wood.

THG RGCORD The 1947 yearbook is the product of a small but capable group of students who felt that the sooner the Record was revived the better it would become in the following years. Largest problem facing the group was that of financing its publication in these years of spiraling costs. The staff eventually convinced the Students Council that part of the cost should come from the Activities Fee and that the book should be sold at a nominal cost to the students. This year ' s RECORD contains more pictures than any book ever published in Haverford s history. The Editor, Barton K. Feroe, was blessed with the ablest campus photographer the college has ever had. That man is hi. Dunseth Wood — Dunny ' to all of us. HHis camera and flash gun have been fixed figures at all athletic contests and social functions. Joseph C. Birdsall, as business manager, has doubled as circulation manager and has done a great job in making the book a success. Fred- erick T. J. Clement has spent long hours in obtaining advertising from a hard-to-convince Main Line, hie was aided in this task by Ben- jamin Collins. Many of the athletic managers and organiza tion heads have helped in the write-ups of their activities. The Seniors saved the day at the last moment by supplying the information on their fellow graduates. Robern N. Hazelwood handled several difficult research jobs and club write-ups with distinction. Richard Johnson, as art editor, helped in the selection of attractive page layouts and type faces. The offices of each department overlap, and the 1947 RECORD represents the concerted effort of the five men pictured above. John A. Lester, faculty advisor, was both patient and helpful as we struggled to meet our deadline. 52 SaraF ' .- VOIX ' ME 3«— MMBEK 1 Report On ' ' Sta Made by White ew Professors egin Classes CijlWtion on February 4. i mt Whii announced that « woaM be  «Tor l new pro- (-i durinjf this prc nt  - 1 ■r tf- take cjirc of the in- 1 J enrollment mi «l9t tc; -c tbOM prcrf«s- ' w--rs who be . ifojnv e n aftbhntkab rences Aired; j€s Favored ,;, ' ..

Along with other campus activities, the NEWS enjoyed a full working staff and a new surge of interest. And the NEWS had a bigger job than ever, to convey to the student body with its record enrollment the current movements of the changing college and its vig- orous new activities. The integration of the newcomers was fol- lowed with Interest, as a Customs Committee successfully held the lid on a large and bubbling freshman class. The College, its new president, and the necessary adjustment to unforseen post- war conditions were all watched with attention. Renovation of the Union was proposed. The in- nauguration brought forth a special, enlarged edition. Finally, the climax of editorial interest v as aimed at the hHonor System and the suspen- sion of its application to Meeting and Collec- tion. This issue raised in a pertinent form the major problems faced with rapid influx, over- crowding and inflationary trends at an essentially unified, small liberal arts college. After the mid-year retirement of executive officers, a new senior NEWS board took over. And, again, during the Spring term, the paper continued to survey the social and athletic activi- ties of an even larger student body. Pictorlally as well as by news coverage, the progress of the continuous sports, dances, club meetings, and activities of other organizations, as well as alumni readers was observed. The Administration began to publish the re- sults of committees which had met to discuss such aspects of the college as optimum size; special features were presented to campus and curriculum and physical plant. Policies arrived at during the first term were gradually put into effect. And the NEWS devoted its editorial columns to a critical consideration and appraisal of these plans, and of other campus problems and situations. Student opinion was voiced, and the Spring wore on as the college reached firmer footing among the many complex ele- ments which had arisen. The NEWS accom- panied this search for a sound foundation with a helpful and critical eye. 53 Left +o right: Bishop. St. Clair, Levinson, Jacob, Winder. Couch, and Kindler. CAP flno BELLS The Cap and Bells Club has as its purpose the fostering of a greater interest in music and drama among the graduates and undergradu- ates of Haverford College. It is composed of two main organizations, the Dramatic Club and the Glee Club, under student officers respon- sible to corresponding Alumni officers and an executive committee composed of both alumni and undergraduates. Also under the wing of the Cap and Bells Club is the college orchestra. Since the Glee Club is discussed elsewhere, only the activities of the Dramatic Club will be treated here. This year the Club planned on presenting four plays in cooperation, as usual, with the Varsity Players of Bryn Mawr. In the fall, Thornton Wilder ' s The Skin of Our Teeth was very ably produced at Bryn Mawr with such fine actors as Brookes Cooper, Ned Coale, hiank Levinson, and Gus Seder. In the early winter, the Club continued a program of experi- ment by producing Pirandello ' s Six Characters in Search of An Author ' at Haverford with our veteran and valuable actor, John Stone, Don Kindler, and also Ed Faltermeyer and Ted East- man. Bryn Mawr ' s Arts Night took the place of the third play on March 8, and the fourth was The Male Animal by Thurber and Nugent in the Spring. All the plays were very expertly directed by Mr. Frederick Thon of Bryn Mawr College. For the Club as a whole, the year has been a hectic but successful one. In the process of returning to a normal pre-war basis there have been many snags and plenty of hard work, es- pecially by those who have almost miraculously fashioned really beautiful sets out of virtually 54 nothing. To Dave Buttrick, our retired Stage Manager, and his crew goes the credit. The Glee Clubs achievements can be read on the pages following this, as can those of the Film Club. There have been scares like the one when one of the actors in Six Characters became ill and Don Kindler took over his part five days before the production and did a fine job. Our fine lighting system has been augmented and Improved by Doug Richie and his crew of elec- tricians. The deplorable conditions backstage In the matter of wiring and roping are being greatly and quickly improved by the College, and our Executive Committee has granted us a sum with which to try to do something with the dressing rooms.

Giee CLUB The Haverford College Glee Club, after many fruitful rehearsals under the direction of Dr. Abe Pepinsky, gave its first concert of the sea- son in November at hHarcum Junior College. The first auspicious appearance of the Club made way for another concert here at the Col- lege at one of the weekly Collections. On the Sunday before Christmas Recess, a well executed and well conducted Christmas Pro- gram was given at Bryn Mawr College. The men showed there that they possessed the ability and stamina out of which could be made an organization of professional standards. In January of the Spring Term, Dr. Pepinsky, because of the burden of such increased enroll- ment in the College, resigned the conductorship of the Glee Club and Dr. William Reese, who has proved more than capable. In choice of program and conducting technique, he was re- markably tasteful and enthusiastic, and concerts in Atlantic City, New York, Beaver College, and Hood College ensued. The ten men who formed the hHaverford Oc - tet ' were always well received with their lively and enthusiastic renditions of Negro spirituals, which formed the bulk of their speciality num- bers. Although a part of the Regular Glee Club, they were asked by many sources to give recitals. WhHAV, the College Network, broad- cast a program, and the hHaverford Civic So- ciety heard some Christmas Music by them in December at the Preston School. Richard Schu- man conducted. The Glee Club may look forward next year to increased enrollment, and already has the nucleus of a fine Chorus. 56 Back row, left to right: Blum, Thawley, Thorpe, Castman. Carman Hand.

LUHflV After struggling for three years to create a first rate college radio station for Haverford students, station WHAV is finally approaching that status. This task has been accomplished in three ways. First, WhHAV has joined the Swarthmore and Pennsylvania Networks to form the first collegi- ate network. The Middle Atlantic Network. The advantages of this arrangement are that the students are not only brought varied and choice entertainment, but also it draws the three col- leges into a closer relationship. Second, the type of program which has been presented over WhIAV this year differs from those of the past. The watchword this year has been live ' broad- casts. Carrying only two live programs over from the previous term, Stump Your Faculty and The Four Salt Peanuts, the program department has added many more new programs of this caliber in order to stimulate student interest. Third, and last, WHAV has started on a vast new building program to make the station more list enable than it has previously been, and also to extend its services to the students of Marion Hall, Government and Language Houses. A great amount of new equipment has replaced the old original ' equipment, which had been used until this year, and the campus has been completely rewired. With these improvements, WHAV has defin- itely come a long way in becoming a top notch college radio station. 57 Left to right: Disbrow, Wilcox, Turner, Young. Tolan. Kelley. Seated: Spatz and Ruff. DeBflTinG In its efforts to keep alive the traditions of former years, the W. W. Comfort Debating So- ciety was seriously handicapped by a lack of experienced debaters. With a small group of hold-overs from the previous season, however, and bolstered by a wealth of new talent, the arrival of the regular intercollegiate debating season found the Society prepared to enter into a full schedule of forensic activity. Debates, both at home and away, were held with a large number of the Eastern colleges, making it necessary for all members of the team to spend long hours in preparing the two main topics for the year. These topics, dealing with the questions of giving labor a direct share in the management of industry and of adopting a system of socialized medicine in the United States, were well designed to bring out the clarity of thought and facility of expression which debating strives to develop. At the same time, they offered an excellent opportunity for research and study which touched many of the most vital problems confronting our economic structure of today. Thus, toward the end of the season, the So- ciety was able to admit into membership one of the largest groups of canditdates in recent years. The further election of several of its members into Tau Kappa Alpha, an honorary fraternity which seeks to recognize the highest standards of scholarship, participation in extra- curricular activities and debating practice, fore- casts even better seasons to come. 58 CLUBS Thorpe, Olivier, Leslie, Aflteson, and Prins The Committee for Student Action was or- ganized in the fall of 1946 to coordinate the ac- tivities of the various campus political and dis- cussion groups. These clubs have been very ac- tive, importing speakers on special topics, send- ing delegates to student conferences, and main- taining intelligent student discussion on the campus. During the first semester. Bill Chapman was chairman, Ben Collins was secretary, and Steve Miller was treasurer. The second semester saw Parke Massey as chairman. Dale Ride as sec- retary, and Steve Miller again the treasurer. Haverford has always had a large number of small but very active organizations in many dif- ferent fields of endeavor. With the return to a full and overflowing enrollment, the college saw many of them revived this year. Limitations in space have necessitated their being placed all together. The German, French, and Spanish Clubs, headed by John Cary, Dan Olivier, and Al Leslie, respectively, have held many meetings this year with clubs from Bryn Mawr, Harcum, and Swarth- more. The Mathematics Club whose president is Geert Prins, has held weekly meetings to dis- cuss problems of interest in their field. The Chemistry Club, with hienry Vinsinger as president, has had several guest speakers on cur- rent topics of interest to its members. The Film Club has shown many of the motion pictures considered to be classics. Its president this year is Tim Atkeson. John Brownlee has he aded the Chess Club, and has, as in past years, held an annual tournament. The Field Club, whose purpose is to plan trips for biological study, is led this year by Jim Thorpe. Ending this impressive list Is the Nautical Club, which, in the past, has sailed In meets with Navy, Penn, Cornell, and M.I.T. . . C.S.fl standing, left to right: Bond Sellers, Chapman. Collins, Reynolds. Seated: Miller. S., McGuire. Massey, Young, L., and Ride. 59 cusToms commiTTGE Although the men of the Custom . Committee are not seen as a group on this page, the effects of their handiwork can be clearly noted. Led this year by Pat Robinson, the group included ' Chuck Boteler, Art Jones, Chris Van hHollen, Charlie Rose, Stan Greonwald, Joe Bush, Roland C. Nenhaus, Beans Matlack, Andy Allinson, and Bill Barker. These men are the uoholders of Haverford tradition, and, according to the Constitution of the Students ' Association, they shall give ell men an opportunity to become acquainted with these college traditions . Early in the year, with a large number of Rhinies on hand, the Committee went to work. One neophyte was overheard to say that the whole idea of a Customs Committee was silly, hiauled out of a Rhinle meeting, he was shown the quickest approach to the murky waters of the Pond. Retaliation by the Rhinies followed: dormitory fights ensued; Committee hats were placed in trees. By the Swarthmore week-end, however, the Rhinies had fully been indoctrinated. They were now a far meeker group. It is certain that they will carry on the best traditions of Haverford and pass those traditions to incoming freshmen. Ks-zj- ' IRI 1 1 K .■ ' ' ' w.r . jf ■ 1 HJhmlj mf mJ U fL_ H |r : JB Bill Barker and Monte Aleniclc nieR-FfliTH oRGflnizflTion In the fall of 1944, a group of students felt the need for an organization that would provide an avenue for better knowledge and understanding of various religious faiths. After careful plan- ning, the parent organization, the Inter-faith Forum, developed and met with immediate suc- cess. The Inter-faith Forum, as its name implies, was designed to foster appreciation of all re- ligions. Since the time of its creation, the Forum has branched out into three parts, all of which come under the general heading called the Inter-faith Organization. The three units are the Inter-faith Forum, the Christian Forum and the Ministerial Forum. Together, they make up and subscribe to the general tenets of the Inter-faith Organization. The Inter-faith Organization is run by a Direc- tive Committee headed by William P. Barker. Chairman, and Monroe E. Alenick, Secretary- treasurer. The other members of the Directive Committee are Virgil B. Baldi, Daniel S. Bern- stein, Lawrence FH. Canan, William D. Chapman, Benjamin McV. Collins, Richard A. Couch, Thomas T. Fleming, James Q. Miller and John A. Stone. The first Directive Committee, under D. Bard Thompson, acquired the use of a deserted room in the basement of the Union. This room was entirely renovated by student labor and con- verted into the Inter-faith Chapel. Later, an organ was purchased which has considerably en- hanced Inter-faith services. All students and re- ligious groups have access to the Chapel. In the course of its three years of existence. the Inter-faith Forum has presented many out- standing programs. These have included repre- sentatives of practically every outstanding re- ligious sect and faith, experts on many problems facing religion, and special programs celebrating certain events in the religious calendar of faiths represented on campus. This fall, the theological students and those in- terested on campus wished to unite into a fellow- ship. The Ministerial Forum organized and is composed of both those decided and those in- terested in making some phase of ministerial work their career. Its directors are William Barker, Theodore Eastman and Thurston St. Clair. The Ministerial Forum gives those interested an op- portunity to meet to discuss mutual problems and hear speakers on subjects particularly pertinent to their profession. The Inter-faith Organization with its three units is designed for the students although faculty par- ticipation is welcomed. Its motto or ideal might best be summed up in the words of John Wool- man. I found no narrowness respecting sects and opinions, but believed that sincere, up-righted people in every society, who truly love God, were accepted of hHim. ' 62 Jhe Swartkmore week-end THG SUUflRTHmORE UJGEHGnD Advance publicity no+Ices labeled the Varsity Club ' s Swarthmore Weekend the biggest weekend at Haverford In years! It was. The heavy work began Thursday night. Chick Shields and Ray Swartley had secured maestro Leo Zollo, and a conn- mlttee Including Ben Leuchter, John Ty- canlch, Dick Valentine, Danny Daudon, and Puppy Dvorken created a scarlet and black tent effect In the gym and hung portraits of the college ' s football and soccer athletes round the main deck of Doc Leake ' s apartment house. The decorations were lauded, but no one was fooled. It was still the gym. Corson Jones chartered a bus to trans- port the college fans to the soccer game at Swarthmore Friday afternoon, but the Garnet went one up as everything went Haywire for the Fords on the soccer field. Once again Varsity Club members and — oh, yes, All-Amerlcans, too — Evan Jones and Beans Mat ' ack contributed heavily to the Scarlet ' s losing caus3. Monte Alenlck and his cheerleaders whipped the crowd into a frenzy at the big bonfire-pep rally Friday evening, but they had to share honors with Bill Barker and his Vive la hiaverford. This was victor No. I for Haverford Inasmuch as Ford students had already destroyed two proposed Swarthmore bonfires by Igniting them prematurely. We don ' t know who the culprits (from Swart hmore ' s viewpoint) were, but per- haps Baker and Charlie Rise would know. By this time many dates were al- ready on the campus. As a result, every- one played bridge, carried on intellec- tural arguments, and drank ginger ale for the remainder of the weekend. The grid- Iron battle with Swarthmore Saturday afternoon will never be forgotten, par- ticularly the heroic play of Art Jones and Church Boteler. Old Walton was jammed, providing Ben Cooper with a happy smile. We lost our goalposts to Swarthmore. and Beak Clement almost lost a leg, but Haverford regained a lot of Dride and a Swarthmore man lost quite a few teeth when Homer Kimmlch threw a haymaker right. The climax was the Fall Sports Dance Saturday night, and though wallow Zollo left something to be desired, ro- mance was at Its peak. The camera caught hotfoot Clayton and Captain White sit- ting one out, and Dunny also managed to snap Lew and Doc. two essential In- gredients to any successful Haverford formal. After the Swarthmore we3kend, the campus rested until Christmas vacation. The students haH wanted something extra- special. The Varsity Cub had produced. But that wasn ' t all the Varsity Club planned. Jones, A., Clayton. Boteler. VflRSITV CLUB In this college year of 1946-47, the Varsity Club experienced a post-war boom. It shook off its war years of hibernation and emerged as something large and dynamic. Yet there are many who do not understand its composition. One might say that the Varsity Club is an honorary organization, yet every member of the club has proven himself in some sort of athletics at hiaverford. Every letter winner at the college automatically is invited to become an active member. The rolls of the club are high, for every member upon graduation becomes an inac- tive member but still remains in the group. Honorary members include the coaching staffs and that rough backfleld man who occupies the Vice-President s office in Roberts hHall — Archibald Macintosh. Just as on the athletic fields. Bob Clayton, as president and Chuck Boteler and Art Jones, as vice-president and secretary-treasurer respec- tively, provided the spark for the Varsity Club. Under the guidance of Roy Randall, the lost constitution of the club was re-written. The hope of the preamble was that Roy could obtain at least eleven all-Americans each fall. The Varsity Club acts as an incentive for every hHaverford student to participate in intercollegi- ate athletics. Its aim is not to make money for new uniforms or gold chains, but rather to im- prove the bodies and the competitive spirit of the students. One of its principle functions, long neglected, was to hold a Sub-Freshman Day this year in which high school and preparatory athletes in nearby areas were invited to spend a day at Haverford. Only men with satisfactory scholas- tic ability are invited. The Varsity Club, then, is also one of the greatest good-will agents of the college. Every man a varsity letter winner, the club in the past year Included those men on the opposite page: 66 M William W. Ambler William M. Lee Ragnar Ausfad H 1 Ben Z. Leuchter Robert K.

The year 1946 might easily have been a repe- tition of Haverford 5 historic 1942 gridiron achievements had it not been for a long string of injuries which plagued the Fords from the be- ginning of the season to the final game. The coaching staff was blessed with one of the finest turnouts for pre-season practice in many years, but few were aware of the misfortunes which were soon to strike the backbone of Haverford ' s strength. Captain Bob White starred in the Ford ' s first two games as we downed Susquehanna, 20-6 and Ursinus, 7-0. Drexel then upset the Scarlet band- FOOTBALL wagon with a 33-20 win, and undefeated Wes- leyan followed suit by walloping us, 33-0. Then there was a reversal of form and we touched Hamilton 40-14 as Chuck Boteler and Tel Test led the attack, hlopkins inflicted a 19-6 defeat and then came the unfortunate Swarthmore game. Briefly, we won the first half, 12-0; lost the second half 13-0, and the game, 13-12. Art Jones and Don Magill scored Haverford s two TD s, while the sunsung heroes were Chucker Pancoast, Frank Kennedy, Bill Ambler, and Charley Rose. Thus the season endeth.

According to the Middle Atlantic Intercollegiate Soccer League Haver- ford finished the year in third place. With one of the largest aggregations of po- tential soccer players for several years Haver- ford gained several distinctions. The two highest League scorers were picked to play in the All Star game at New York: Jones, Matlack and Lucine. Jones scored the only goal of the game, socceR which was played 14 December, 1946. .He has also been elected captain of the 1947 soccer team. , The victory over Cornell on Thanksgiving Day showed the customary Ford brand of soccer and justified the hard work done by the coach and team during the year.

This past season must be placed in the frigid category. On hand at the opening of practice was almost the entire squad of 1945-46 plus veterans from previous basketball campaigns — Ray Swartley, Frank Ken- nedy, Harold Whitcomb, Bill Delp, and Chuck Boteler. The picture looked bright for coach Ray Mullan, but it became considerably dimmer with each succeeding game. Elizabethtown started us off on the wrong foot with a 60-52 reversal, and then Stevens and F M made it three defeats in a row. We came awfully close to upsetting a highly-favored Ur- sinus five, only to bow in the closing seconds, 48-46. Delaware made It five defeats in a row, but in the next game the string was snapped as we downed P.M.C., 48-45. In the last game before this article was written, Drexel outscored the Fords, 70-51. : .m. Back row. left to right; Suydam, Coach; Maroney. Rodewald, Daudon, Wallcer, St. Clair, Mgr.

Coached by Bill Suydam, the first practice was held early in December, and the difficult task of getting the team into shape was begun. Although the original number of aspirants was fairly large, those men with experience were definitely in the minority. All showed, however, a willingness to learn and work hard to condition themselves. Because of the lack of experience in the lower weights, the grapplers had to hope for wins in the heavier weight division. With Bill Rodewald, Ian Walker, and Phil Maroney holding down the 175, the 155, and heavyweight berths respec- tively, the teams chances for success looked good. Dave Hastings and Tom Snipes were consistant lightweights. The team showed progressive improvement in the first three matches with Gettysburg, Rut- gers, and Franklin and Marshall. As this ma- terial is being prepared for publication, the team Is preparing to face Johns Hopkins, Muhlenberg Delaware, and Swarthmore. Left to right: Young, L., Rowe. Lambert, Harvey, Reitiel. Mgr. FencinG The Fencing Team had its renaissance in time for the 1946-47 season after a long lapse be- cause of the war. Under the guidance of the scintillating Coach Henri Gordon, a large turn- out of hopefuls crossed blades, slashed, parried, and skewered each other with murderous intent. In the space of a few short months there emerged from this melee ' a precision team of nine, nicely skilled in the subtle arts of quatre, re- poste, remise, and simulated homicide, and versed in the finer points of code duello. Henri shook his head; Butchers! he said, Do it this way— la-la-la-TOUCHE! The training barrack was not a deserted cor- ner of Walton Field just at daybreak, but the Cricket Shed, reinforced with coal stoves to keep out the Philadelphia weather. Three nights a week the blades clashed and cautious eyes peerd out from behind the wire masks. Manager Nick Reitzel shoveled coal and ashes, pondered the schedule of Meets, and groaned with the snap of each broken blade. The first victim was Lehigh, which fell before the Haverford blades by a score of eleven to six. Then followed meets with Temple and Princeton. When the dust of the season had settled the team had acquitted itself with credit, but Henri was not impressed. It takes ten years to make a fencer, he said. The prospects for next year are excellent, with a rising group of J.V. ' s as a backlog for the Var- sity. Spring workouts set the pace, with practice in the early Fall to follow. The coming season should see an even better team take the strip in answer to the ancient cry, En Garde! 78 LeH to right: Thompson, Mgr.. Johnson, J., Clayton, Johnson, D., Shields, Olivier, Harris, and Bramalt, Coach. Tennis With a record of three wins and four losses, the Tennis Team enjoyed the best record of any of the Spring athletic teams. Chick Shields returned to Haverford after a season in the Paci- fic and he joined Dave Johnson, Bob Clayton, Bill hiarris, Dan Olivier, and Jim Johnson. The doubles teams consisted of Dave Johnson and Clayton, Shields and Jim Johnson, and Harris and Olivier. In the finals of the annual tournament for the Virginia Cup, Shields, who will Captain the ' 47 team, outlasted Dave Johnson, after trailing 5-2 and 30-0 in the fourth set. The final score: 4-6, 2-6, 6-1, 7-5, 6-3. Due to an early RECORD deadline, we can give only a preview of the 1 947 series. The team will be strengthened by the return of Jim Schnaars, undefeated at hHaverford for two years before the war and present Singles Champion of Panama. In addition there will be Diehl Mateer, top ranking junior in Philadelphia and number one junior in the Middle Atlantic States. The Betson brothers. Bob and Dick, former finalists in the National Interscholastlc Doubles Cham- pionship, are also here to bolster the team. Tom Crolius, former Penn Charter tennis captain, will round out the squad, while freshman Jim Foster with added experience, might well press some of the first six players. 79 Back row, left to right: Turner, ' Pop ' Haddleton, Coach; Montgomery, Greenwald. Dc trainer. Middle row: Lash, Srosholz Bartholomew. Bocar, Sparks, Brodhead. Front row: Miller, B., Todd. Rogers, captain, Johnston, Jones, E., and Keller. Leake TRflCH According to Alfred W. Haddleton, affec- tionately known as Pop to all of us, much of the credit for the 1946 track season must go to Al Rogers, a returned Army Air Forces Captain who led the team in a very trying year. Al- though Pop ' won ' t admit it, much credit must go to him as well, for the veteran track coach who came to Haverford after World War I has maintained a record of seventy-five percent vic- tories in all their meets. The year 1946 saw an improved team take to the cinders after the low of 1945. Two men were outstanding in competition. The first is Captain Al Rogers, who ran the 440 and 880: the other was Jim Grosholz, whose record in the mile and halfmile events shows only one defeat. Grosholz, incidentally, was high man for the year with a total of seventy-six points. Evan Jones was second with forty-one and one third points. The team lost to Johns hfopkins by a score of 77-45 and to F. and M. and Delaware in a Triangular meet. Bright spot of this latter con- test was the winning of the high jump by Evan Jones with a five foot eight inch leap. They were a poor third In another triangular meet with Lafayette and Muhlenberg, both of which teams would have been easy victims for hlaver- ford in normal years. The team made an excellent showing in defeat- ing Gettysburg and Drexel in the third triangular meet of the year. The scores: FHaverford, 67 ' 2, Gettysburg 48, and Drexel 38 ' 2 points. In the annual meet with Swarthmore, the Scarlet and Black lost to a strong Garnet aggregation 85 2 3 to 40 I 3. As this book is being prepared for publica- tion. Pop hiaddleton feels that he will have a much stronger team than the one just reviewed. He feels that it will be another year or so before Haverford returns to its high pre-war standard In track. 80 Back row. left to right; Randall.

BR56BflLL The spring of 1946 saw Messrs: Randall and Docherty (Coaches, Inc.) field hiaverford ' s first post-war baseball team; It saw the Scarlet achieve but a single victory In the eight games that it played: it also saw old Jupiter Pluvius force the postponement of five games, Including the traditional Swarthmore contest at the end of the season. The squad was a mixture of veteran perform- ers and rookie prospects, Bill Hedges, a member of pre-war hiaverford nines, was on hand to serve in the dual capacity of captain and right fielder. The diminutive captain-elect, Beans Matlack, was back at his old second base position, while Crede Calhoun returned once again to patrol the outer garden In left field. Chuck Boteler took his old duties behind the plate. Rhinles Bob Fania and Paul Brewer, shortstop and first base respectively, were among the new faces present. Jack hienkels, another freshman, won the center field slot through a steady display of hitting and fielding. There was a parade of play- ers at third base throughout the season, but none seemed to fill the bill. The pitching staff was composed of Bob White and southpaw Ted Wright. The latter ' s performance in the Urslnus game was the high- light of the season as he let the Bears down with six hits and a 10-3 victory. White ' s best effort was In the Delaware tilt where shoddy fielding and the inability of his teammates to hit when it counted cost him — and hiaverford — a 5-3 defeat. SI v m 7-y ijM. yLn essay in [Pkotograpks 5 Jl f scpiemBGR September 1 9f h saw Haver- ford College open Its gates and begin the one hundred and thirteenth year of its his- tory as the best sma ' l liberal arts college in the country . Felix Morley had departed for Washington, but among the freshmen was the man soon to become Haverford ' s fourteenth president, Gilbert F. White. One evening a group of re- turning veterans, wa ' king up College Lane, were offered a ride by a lean, young looking man, who was Immediately asked if he were one of the married students living in Merion Annex. No, he chuckled, I live at No. I Col- lege Circle. The record enrollment of four hundred and eighty-eight students included not only men who were seeing Haver- ford for the first time but a ' so representatives of c ' asses dat- ing back as far as 1940 and as far into the future as 1950. The latter men were soon whipped into shape by the time honored means of gar- ters. Rhinie buttons and hats, matches and knowledge of the Ardmore movies. Some of them found the pond a pri- mary source of discomfort, while others performed ad- mirably in the annual C!ub Founders Show. They were a spirited bunch, those Rhinies. for committeemen ' s hats mys- teriously disappeared one nlqht and blossomed forth in the trees before Roberts Hall. Elm Diseases quickly followed and the trees were soon re- moved by Slim, Lew and Com- pany. There was a record enroll- ment for football, too, and Randall and Docherty had visions of another 1942 season. The soccer team, having enjoy- ed a championship season the year before, hoped to turn the trick again In their department. All-Americans Moose and Beans struggled through the new schedule of seven laps per day and did their best to kick down the practice backboard near the Observatory. And Jerry Cary was back on hand after three years ' bsence. Tired either from soccer or football practice or from shak- ing hands with old friends, the boys returned to The Straw where they met another old friend, Roger the Lodger. C T B G R The leaves began to fade and new romances were made. The cheer leaders, led by Monte Alenlclt, included Stuart Beck, Rege Collier, George Hoffman, Robert Hoskins, Bob Ldsday, Bob Stackhouse, and Jim Wood, shattered their tonsils as the first pep rallies were held. The footballers re- plied with a victory over Sus- quehanna while the soccermen took the measure of Western Maryland. Poppa Pancoast showed that married life had not dulled his prowess as a blocker. Bob White pulled the Ursinus game out of the fire in the dying moments. Jimmy Schnaars. back from the wars and happily married to Syd, had his tennis racquets restrung and set his sights on the Virginia Cup. Champion of all Panama. Jimmy has his own training table In the din- ina room. Running true to pre-war form, the football program salesmen took up the familiar cry, Hurry, hurry, only two thousand programs left. But the programs weren ' t sold; Sunday morning found the two thousand in the trunk of a leaning 1935 Chrysler coupe. Audible groans were heard about the campus as the first quizzes were passed out and another crop of America ' s finest learned the meaning of a jitter session. When the results of the quizzes were Icnown, South Barclay made plans to send another wave of screen salesmen to India. Committees were broken up In Washington, while hundreds of them were born at Haver- ford preparatory to the In- auguration to be held the fol- lowing month. no V6 m BG R The Cross Country feam. in- excusably missed by the RECORD board was paced by Captain Jim GrosSolz, who was soon to be tagged Mr. Grossman bv a member of the English department. Messrs. Sheppard, Smiley, Carman, Rudisill, Hawkins, Hopkins, and Moore had as their man- ager Thirsty St. Clair, who was also dabbling in Cap and Bells at this point. Pop con- tinued to browse through Lloyd looking for copies of Jesse Abramson In the Herald-Tri- bune. The perennial anicle-taper, Doc Lealce, had plenty of busi- ness as the football team, plagued by injuries, plowed through their seven-game schedule, hitting a rock occa- sionally. At the Hamilton game, many spectators prefer- red to listen to their portable radios which announced a 0-0 Army-Notre Dame score. Chlcit Shields sucked meditatively on his pipe as Church Boteler scored three times against the boys from C ' Inton, N. Y. The Swart hmore game re- sulted in a first-half victory for Haverford; the Garnet took the more Important second- half, however. The goal posts swayed and finally toppled as Bill Lee clung tenaciously to one of the uprights. The au- thorities did not deem It nec- essary to call in gendarmes on horseback, and old Walton was saved from the fate of nearby Franklin Field. The booters came through with a Thanksgiving Day vic- tory over Cornell as the rest of the College took off on an unprecedented three-day vaca- tion. Tired athletes such as Butch Case found time to catch up with extra-curricular reading. Biggest event of the month saw the Installation of a new Haverford president. Treated elsewhere In this book, the inauguration provided a dash of color to black Saturday when the Fords were taking a thumping at Wesleyan. D ec E m B e R An unusually mild December provided the tennismen with several extra days of practice, and Chick Shields unanimously elected captain by his 1946 teammates, gave the situation a dubious eye as he wondered about his prospects for the 1 947 season. All he had to worry about were Jim Schnaars, Diehl Mateer, and the Betson brothers, one of whom, Bob, is pictured on this page. The Radio Station, WHAV, finally convinced the campus that Swarthmore had not tried to capture their facilities the month before, and Brown lee and hiarper plugged away on the expanded controls, while L. Lew Young battled It out on the air waves with Henry J. Taylor. And In December, Haver- ford had a distinguished visitor who quoted Irving Berlin in Meeting: I ' m dreaming of a White Christmas. Herman sei, Up at Hahvahd, they ' re interested in dahtah. The Four Salt Peanuts Amussen, Gailey, Thawley, and Hauser, played the music for Bouncing Bob Murphey ( I spell my name with an ey ) and Dotty to burn the linoleum In the dining room to a crisp. Whitcomb, Roche, and Edger- ton helped to empty the punch bowl with its never changing formula of orange sherbert and ginger ale. Christmas vacation began with a bang. A snowfall can- celled every outgoing flight from Philadelphia on Friday and Saturday. Spatz braved Hoag ' s wrath to cut a class and stand up for eight hours to Pittsburgh. The train arrived safely despite a heavy over- cast caused by the snow and smoke. This phenomenon Is commonly called SMOE. J n n u fl R V fl n D F e B R U fl R V with the Holidays over, mid-year examinations loomed large, and so a large poriioi Oi the student body settled down to the bridge tournament. Deitsch and Massey finally won out over all other contestants. At publication time, the vic- tors were still hoping for a free trip to Chicago. Moose studied for his comprehensives by tooting on his licorice stick, and wound up with an instructor ' s job in Math at Drexel. Eight seniors made the grade and went on out into the cruel, cold world. Some students were left en- tirely weak from the grueling ordeal of examinations: these men found solace in letters from Florida and elsewhere. The editor of the RECORD became a fixed figure in the dining hall at mealtime. Never able to afford the fifty-five cent bill, his weight dropped off appreciably. He sold the Students ' Council Founders Hall and the idea of support- ing a yearbook. By February, a co ' cl STell froz the murky waters of the Pond sufficiently to hold even the stoutest members of the col- lege. Winder and Dvorken (no connection with the above statement) took a turn on the ice. As the frantic editorial board of this publication dashed about getting copy and advertising at the last moment, a heavy snowfa ' l blanketed the campus.
