Haverford College - Record Yearbook (Haverford, PA)

Text from Pages 1 - 134 of the 1950 volume:

I .H-1MM- nISJg the record 1950 published by the students of haverford college haverf ord Pennsylvania introduction This is a record of Haverford College, 1950, not just a coverage of fhe four-year shenanigans of the graduating class. Not everyone, everything, could be included. In respect to those things that could not be covered, we hope that there is something here that will rennind you of them: of the cold dankness in the library foyer; of the weekly traffic jam at Collection exit; of rival political factions; of in-groups and out-groups; of the lawns that you couldn ' t walk on as a Freshman (Customs Committee), or as a Senior (the lawns were always in a state of re- cuperation); of baleful portraits and blaring music in the chow-hall. Of persons, places, things that mean Haverford to you. 1950, the mid-century mark, has been the cue for editors to comb their files for dusty, funny, photo- graphs and attitudes. Far be it from us at Haverford to ignore our unusual heritage, but rather than gaiing back in contemplation, we intend to become more aware of the value of what we have as it is applicable to our future. And in order to accent what we feel are valuable parts of our campus life, we have added sections to the year- book, put emphasis on in some places and taken it off in others. In the process no traditions have been badly shattered; we have tried to start some. contents dedication On a balmy day in late September of 1946, a snappy green coupe turned slowly off Lancaster Pike into College Lane. The driver noticed a slight figure in grey flannel plodding slowly up the Lane toward Barclay. The car screeched to a halt. Hop in, fella, said the driver. New here, aren ' t you, kid? he questioned. , Yes I am, his rider replied. A Freshman, huh? Yes, in a manner of speaking, I guess I am, came the reply. The car rounded the bend and approached Roberts Hall. Well, all out kid. And good luck. I ' m a Senior and take it from me, you ' ll find this is a great place. Say, what ' s your name anyway? The driver extended his hand. It ' s Gilbert White, said the grey-suited man with the crew cut. The Senior ' s jaw dropped. W-W-White? Not President White? he stuttered. That ' s right, replied the new president. And you needn ' t feel uncomfortable. After all, you ' re right. I am a Rhinie, smiled the President. Then he shook the Senior ' s limp right hand, turned and walked to his office in Roberts Hall . . . Such is the traditional tale of President White ' s introduction to Haverford. Now he, too, is a Senior, in a manner of speaking. Our four years at Haverford have been his first four; and as we have worked steadily toward our degrees, he has worked steadily toward making Haverford a better place for us and for those who will come after us. He has already done a great deal for Haverford, and those who have worked with him have come to respect and admire his qualities of leadership and his capacity for sincere friendship. And while we of the Class of 1950 have now reached the end of our careers at Haverford with the same feeling of regret that has gripped many before us, we can also carry with us the distinctive feeling that we have left behind one of our number under whose direction the College will continue to go forward. To President Gilbert F. White, an Administrator with vision, and a true friend, in the broadest scope and meaning of the word, this yearbook is dedicated. ■:.Hi;«ll -. ....:.;:; gilbert f. white the college section IN FOUR YEARS at Haverlord, each member of the class of 1950 has inevitably come in contact with a relatively large group of individuals who literally make the college ticlc. As if this charac- teristic were not enough, the Haverford Senior of today will also hasten to tell you that each of these individuals also possesses amazing and unusual personal characteristics which will never be forgotten by the majority of graduates. Some of these personal attributes inspire respect, others affection, still others, perhaps antagonism, but their common meeting ground is that they all leave a lasting impression. In order to facilitate the description of these members of the Haverford community, this group of individuals has been divided into three main sub-groups, which we shall take the liberty of calling the Indispensables, the Professors, and the Administration. The Indispensables are those remarkable pe rsons who are always on the scene, whose services are always sought, and who always render their best performances willingly and cheerfully. Without them, the machinery of the college would bog down and come to a standstill. The faces, activities, and individualities of these people are as well known to us as those of our room-mates. They have an amazing faculty for learning the names, associations, and interests of a preponderant number of the student body, and all of us who have come in contact with them in the offices, in our dormitories, and on the campus and the athletic fields, are proud to call them friends. There is another group of men on campus, known collectively as the Professors, who meet us daily or on alternate days, in classrooms and labs, and whose often frustrating job it is to urge us to be receptive to the myriad facts, figures, and theories which they are prepared to expose to us, and to which, incidentally, they are prepared to expose us. The mannerisms and habits of a great many of the Professors are well known to us, and many of us know well the mannerisms of men from whom we have never taken a course. In this section we shall try to present an accurate portrayal of one or two of the outstanding characteristics of many of these teachers. Still another, and very important group of members of the college community is the Adminis- trative staff, the people who run the main offices, the Comptroller ' s office, the Infirmary, the Book- store, the Library, the Chow Hall, etc. A great many of these persons are not as well known to the student body as the Indispensables and the Professors, and for this reason we feel that they should be formally introduced, since their activities are of such importance, and especially since those of us who know them appreciate them greatly. In former years this segment of our college life has been somewhat neglected by the RECORD. We have attempted here to cover it adequately despite limitations in space. 1 the indispensables CARTER: Anything for nne today, Billy? ; day in, day out, Bilty is on the job in his jeep station wagon.

Cooper, who has been an integral part of our lives as under- graduates and will continue to be close to us as Alumni. Through a genuine feeling for Haverford, he has had an active interest in our student affairs, mingled with us on the campus, and he has been the first to extend his appreciation through the letters- column of the NEWS when we have acquitted our- selves, win or lose, at our athletic events. He was one of the first friendly faces we saw on the campus, as he showed us the grounds, or settled us in our rooms. We feel certain that the Alumni will join in this endorsement, also, for Ben has not merely worked at his job as Alumni Secretary. His job came natu- ral to him out of a genuine interest in Haverford. We have seen him remove the formality of form letters by writing personal notes with each letter as it went out. We know that Ben is an asset to Haverford College because he has kept Alumni relations at a high level, thus making the ground more fertile for the College Fund Drive, which has been so well executed by the Campaign office and the various committees. We can ' t really write a final statement of ap- preciation to Ben, for this page represents an initial vote of thanks for a job which Ben will con- tinue to do well, because he knows that good public relations is a long range proposition and not some- thing which is established over-night. 15 Diverse to the point of perversity. From California, Vermont, Oklahoma, Wisconsin, and a few of the Middle-Atlantic States. Veterans and otherwise, Pre-meds, pre-theos, pre-laws, pre-business and all pretentious. Wheels and would-be-whee s, a few carrel-happy hermits, a smattering of social athletes; each man very much an individual. Elements of every sort in a strange equilibrium. Barclay, infested from North to the Tower, Center and South, was their stronghold for two years. They got together to fight off Pat Robinson ' s boys, win Class Night when Sophomores, and engineer the Junior Cruise in 1949. They were in on the inauguration of President White, the first Class Night and Class Athletic Day, helped initiate Campus and Spring Day, and finally saw the college enroll- ment start down. With time they spread (geographically) from Bar- clay to Lloyd, Merion, Pounders, French and Spanish Houses. Four years can go very quickly. What kept the eyes off the clock is one for the oui[a board. It wasn ' t the beautiful weather, or antici- pation of the evening meal; it may have been Bryn Mawr, Harcum, or quiet evenings, at a local restaurant. Final exams seemed to arrive before a working grasp of the subject was acquired, and comps will always come too soon. Even in the quiet campus atmosphere, so like an English nobleman ' s park, things moved a little too fast. They leave no legacy, will, or wild exhortation to those who follow. Perhaps their class gift. Club ' 50, is a symbol of their feeling: that even with Haverford ' s intensive training and development, there is room for a damn good time. JOHN T.

The Junior Weekend was an attempt of the class of ' 5! to outdo itself: Square dances. Class Night, Charlie Chaplin, and the highlight of the Junior Weekend — the Spring Carousel featuring Teddy Wilson. Hours of toil went into the Class Night production, and miles of crepe paper Into making the gym a veritable carousel. The results spoke for themselves. The Junior Class takes this opportunity of wishing the members of the Class of ' 50 all the luck in the world. They will certainly need it, because next year Is 1951. 66 sophomores That big second year! Wl+h If come Integration and adjustment, or at least so the authorities say. The Class of ' 52 has proven them correct. Solidifying their sophomoric status with a burst of sadistic savagery, the proverbially wicked wise fools pounced upon the luckless Rhinies. With Custom Committee sanction they diligently ferried Mac ' s finest to out-of-the-way spots of scenic interest, gladly giving up many hours of much needed sleep for the privilege. Once having dealt with educational subjects the Class of ' 52 turned its attention to the field of social activities. Here success again crowned Sophomore efforts. A well contested but final Juniata victory on Walton field could not dim the radiance of the Sophomore Weekend. This first social event of the College season featured the dance on Saturday evening presented in true Hallowe ' en spirit. Corn stalks, crepe paper, and a dash of Sophomore ingenuity turned the trick. Not satisfied with their already remarkable achievements, the Class of ' 52 attacked the Class Show with increased vigor. Casting aside their Freshmen attitude for one of more enlightened proportions, they turned from the slapstick to the subtle, or almost. It is with just cause that the Class of ' 52 looks back on its accomplish- ments with pride, and forward with expectation. 1 9 5 2 First Row: Jenney, Boger. Briod, Eller, Chase, D.

The traditionally stigmatized Rhinies, under the guidance and pressure of the Customs Committee and other upperclassmen, very soon developed into the Freshman Class, and, to pursue the figure, assumed responsible places in the undergraduate totemic relationship. While responding readily to all that was demanded and expected of them during the period of customs indoctrination, the Rhinies were also beginning what was later to be a very active and competent participation in every phas e of the extracurricular life of the College. As Sophomores, the members of the Class of ' 53 will continue their endeavour towards upholding the finest traditions of Haverford College. 68 lot of •vonts and earryingi-on around hor happan on a yaarly batii.

' ' fh,t W e e l Haverford ' s fourth annual Class Night activities began the Junior Weekend in appropriate fashion this year with the Juniors, Class of 1951, copping top honors in this battle of theatrical and dramatic ability. The Junior ' s presented a fast moving well-coordinated show based on the attempt of Havertord ' s executive Big Three to save the fund drive from collapse by robbing Brlnx, the famous pecuniary emporium. This extravaganza was sparked by the usual brilliance of Al Clayton ' s music, the directing and script abilities of Sam Hudson and Dave McCarn, a frightfully proper British genie, a chorus of dancing Lower Merlon policemen, Ben Birdsall ' s portrayal of a Lunt-IIke bum, a well-stacked female apparition who descended from the roof of Roberts HI all, Charlie Griffith as S. Obie, pawn broker and bon vivant, and Don Amussen with his show stopping line, I ' d like to make a withdrawal, please. Deserving also of special mention ts Tom McNutt whose rendition of My Heart Is A Genie brought Dr. Snyder to his feet in appreciation as well as receiving the judges ' nod as the best individual performance of the evening. class night The Sophomores Injected a novel Idea Into the Class Night proceedings coming up with a movie and an orchestra. The consummation of a merger between Haver ford and Bryn Mawr provided the ground work for this production which, in the opinion of most, took close second honors. Pete Cummins ' s music, the three ravishing Bryn Mawr lovelies admirably played by Fred Osier, Bob Phillips, and Dick Mead, and a pseudo-modern dance by Bob Phillips and Dave Western were outstanding. This latter exhibition of choreography received second place honors In the Individual performance ratings. The Senior Class presented a police ridden episode In which J. Edgar Fosdick of Ardmore Yard played by Chris Amussen and Sherlock Sherwln played by Ian Walker unraveled the murder of one of the Schultz Bros. This dastardly deed was discovered to have been committed by Jim Sharpless, proprietor of the Coop, Impersonated by Ted Eastman, the murder weapon being ... a yoyo that ' s good and strong. and the junior dance The Freshmen opened Ihe evening wilh an alcohol drenched piece livened by the panning of Harvard, Prince- ton, Yale, and Dartmouth, and the girdle-popping histri- onics of Bob Reynolds as the typical Harvard collegian. To crown an already entertainment filled evening the faculty presented a culture filled saga dealing with the above mentioned fund drive. The Shakesperian blank verse and the adaptations from Hemingway and Chekhov by author Dick Warren provided admirable opportunity for a display of dramatic ability by Messrs. Haviland, Hunter, Lester, Parker, Roche, and Sanford. But these spectacular theatrical achievements were only the prelude to a weekend of spectacular events. A Charlie Chaplin silent film entertained couples Saturday afternoon, and at nine that evening the long heralded and eagerly awaited Spring Carousel got under way in the crepe paper swathed, softly lighted gymnasium to the music of Teddy Wilson ' s orchestra and the maestro ' s endeavors on the Roberts Hall piano, especially transported to the south end of the campus for this gala event, Sunday night found many tired and scholastically deficient students mourning the passing of what was to many the best weekend in recent memory. campus day On a bleak November morn the bell atop Founders rang in two minute bursts and Haverford ' s second annual Campus Day had begun. Afternoon classes and athletics were rele- gated to the morning hours, and the afternoon was devoted to physical labor, the purpose of which was to beautify the campus. Bryn Mawr girls and half the Haverford faculty led the two hundred and fifty ' Ford students grappling with nine- teen projects designated by Cletus Oakley and his student helpers on the Campus Day Committee. Coach Roy Randall and a vigorous crew white-washed the barn, while Dean Hoag, Mr. Rosenstock and a hale and hearty crew tangled with the epidemic of autumn leaves. President White practiced his soil conservation skills by erecting a minor TV A near the Union Building. Vice- President Macintosh and a stone-piling crew of undergrad- uates cooperated. On the football field the grandstand was bedecked with a stout coat of green paint while the expert, though non-union, Haverford painters gossiped about foot- ball, soccer and the coming defeat of Swarthmore. Dr. Flight and Bill Docherty traded professional secrets while applying deft strokes of the paint brush. A group of naturalists adorned the trees on the nature walk with dog-tags. One tree near Founders ' was identified as the pubertree. From the mud-banks of the pond to the surrounding woods where muscular lumberjacks swung their weapons against offensive timbers, the station wagon doughnut, cider, and coffee caravan under the direction of Mrs. Allendoerfer and Mrs. Sargent distributed their morale boosters. Fifteen gal- lons of cider, two hundred cups of coffee, and six hundred doughnuts were consumed by the hard-working Haverford laborers. Though the infirmary was ready to handle any number of emergency cases due to the unusual amount of exertion on the community premises, faculty and students of Bryn Mawr and Haverford survived the day ' s hardships without mishap. and the products of the day ' s labor are still admired by all. g: activities and clubs ;:5a5S Find two other students with a burning interest akin to yours, form a club and petition the Council for money for speakers, stationery and stamps. That ' s the way It used to be — now you need at least five other fellow enthusiasts before you can form a club. At Haverford extracurricular activities serve to take up that slack time of day, when the evening meal and Danceland are over, the Bulletin has been read, and nothing egitimate but study is left till bedtime. Then is the proper time for News meetings. Glee Club re- hearsals, tryouts for Drama Club in Roberts, and IRC discussions on atomic bomb policy. The value of the extra- curricular activities on campus centers around the worth of the larger political, literary and dramatic organizations and the leadership in these c ubs during the past year has been inspired and sincere. George Colman Ken Moser and Dick McKinley, to mention a few, are men whose absence will be felt. The number of existent thriving organizations on campus makes complete coverage a thing to dream about. The sample here is fairly representative, we hope, and remember, if you don ' t find anything that appeals to rour extracurricular interests at Haverford, find five riends and form your own club. 77 offi icers and members George Colman President Richard Eberly Secrefary Kenneth Dolbeare Treasurer James Foster William Rhoads Samuel Colman Richard Eller Arnold Jones Allen Phipps students council The College Catalogue in a very dignified and formal manner spealcs of the Students ' Council as the seat of student government, the overseer of extracurricular activities, the watchdog of the Honor System, and the official representa- tive of the Student Body. The Council would be more apt to describe the same functions in terms of long Thursday night meetings, hours of arguing over budgets, concessions, and committees, conferences with the faculty and the ad- ministration, and constant concern for the general state of the student body. Looking back on a year of activity, several events and ac- complishments stand clear. The Council faced several prob- lems because of the decreased size of the student body. Foremost among these was the problem of distributing con- siderably depleted funds equitably among the extracurricular activities. This budgeting problem was handled effectively by establishing ratings of priority among the many activities on the basis of student participation. Haverford-Swarthmore relationships were strained to the point of $207 damage before the big football game. The bill came as quite a blow to our failing treasury, so steps were taken with Swarthmore ' s Council to prevent the same thing from happening next year. The Christmas tree project will no doubt stand as the most material of the accomplishments of the Council. Keep- ing several s eps ahead of Santa Claus and the Welfare State the Council planted a thousand pine trees on unused College farm land. In five years the first cutting will begin to provide Christmas trees for any needy families in the College Community. The conservation experts on the faculty have been consulted to Insure a regular and possibly per- petual yield. The aspect of campus life in which the least happened is, oddly enough, the source of the most gratification to the Council. The fact that the year was relatively quief in regard to the Honor System is indicative of Its growing importance to the student body. All violations and rumors of violations were Investigated Immediately and thoroughly by the Council. There ts little doubt that this has been one of the Honor System ' s best years. 78 Rhoads, Eller, Foster, Dolbeare. Phlpps, G. Col man, Eberly, S. Col man, A. Jones. Any Thursday night In the Council Room an interested person could get Into discussions ranging from the best way to get missing crockery back to Mrs. Beatty, to the implications of a changing society on the Honor System. The members of the Council were just as varied as the issues they faced. As President, George Colman was naturally the pro- tagonist of the meetings, and consistently arrived wl+h a lengthy list of things to be accomplished, thereby sending any member with a late date Into an impassioned plea for a speedy meeting. Ken Dolbeare had the tough and thankless job of handling the money. Cynical when he wanted to be, his imitations of Caselll were classic. Secretary Dick Eberly developed his own Inimitable style of writing minutes and his own ideas about the ideal faculty. Dusty Rhoads served as the hardbolled elder states- man and spent a lot of his time arguing with Sam Col- man, who usually had Ideas all his own. Jim Foster was the probing questioner of the out- fit, and got most of his answers from Dick Eller, who seemed to serve as the confidant of every misdemeanant on cam- pus. Arnie Jones added his own brand of humor and served admirably as the moral guardian of the Merlon boys. 79 I. c. 3 I.C.G. (Intercollegiate Conference on Govern- ment) has been a proving grounds for budding Haverford politicians for several years. The annual jaunts to hiarrisburg have demonstrated that Haverfordians can log-roll, gerrymander and lobby with a skill that Boss Penrose himself would have found difficult to emulate. Proof: the last minute snow-iobs that Haverford has foisted on Innocent well-intentioned students of government. This year we were able to shovel -through the election of John Marvin as Regional Director. The Harrisburg trips have been lost weekends for some of the more sturdy elements In our dele- gation who have made extensive surveys of various Harrisburg Institutions, which surveys have often prevented conference activities. Haverford ' s I.C.G. would sponsor the Golden Rule if we coutd be sure we ' d get credit for initiating It. I. r. c. The activities of IRC have promoted cordial re- lations between Haverford and its sister college. All of the meetings were held jointly with Bryn Mawr. . . . Topics of discussion ranged from the Palestine situation to the hydrogen bomb, the state of German universities and the coal situation In the U. S. With the Philadelphia World Affairs Council the IRC also co-sponsored a meeting of the Model Atomic Energy Commission in the Haverford Union and sent four delegates to the model UN Assembly at City College. New York. debating The W.W. Comfort Debating Society has had an active and successful year. Overall, the society has participated In more than a debate a week on and off campus. One of the highlights of the season was the New England trip during which Haverford met Harvard, Yale, Vassar, Amherst, and M.I.T. on the question of natlonallied industry. The mem- bers have had approximately fifty debates with leading eastern colleges, and won a decisive majority of them; Swarthmore, Temple, Penn. Princeton and N.Y.U. were among the victims. In the spring the club journeyed south for the Mary Washington and Moffit tournaments in Virginia. Although they did not come out on top, the student-coached Haverford men did well against the professionally coached teams from all over the country. 80 f ou nders These gentlemen with the look of distinction are all members of Haverford ' s sole honorary society: Founders Club. Often called the mutual admira- tion and baclc-slapping society, Founders Club was Initiated to honor those members of the stu- dent body who had been outstanding In scholastic, athletic, and extracurricular activities. Very little can be said about the activities of this year ' s group because the Club ' s only apparent reason for existing Is self- perpetuation. For this purpose, It met twice during the year: once in the fall and again In spring. A few members of the group, however, undertook to co-sponsor Sub- Freshmen Day. This activity could very well be the beginning of new responsible undertakings by the Club. counterpoint Counterpoint, the literary magazine of Bryn Mawr and Haverford colleges. survived Its second year and seemed solid enough to last a couple more. Editor Herb Cheyette headed an almost entirely new staff for two issues, relinquishing the reins to old-timer Skip Lea, returned from France, for the third. Tony Morley took over the business managership from JIggs Kunkel somewhat more precipitately, to the relief of all concerned. Also participating were Messrs. Cone. Norton, Todd. Blum, Gundry, Frazer, Kopf. Leggett. Meserole and Philips, the first three In a voting capacity. The Bryn Mawr staff was no more Incompatible with us than usual, the material was no better, and a good time was therefore had by all. fil m c lub Some characteristic Film Club traits were notice- ably absent during the past year. The problem of the sporadic projector was conquered, and per- formances were agreeably smoother, much to the satisfaction of the harassed men behind the pro- jector. Members had previously expressed great concern when faced with the prospect of standing before a Friday night audience composed of faculty, students, and feminine guests to announce, one moment please, while we fix the cooling mechanism, or. we ' ll have a new projection bulb In just a moment. The show will get under way as soon as we ' re able to get the old bulb out of the socket. In order to give this account a more serious and creditable vein, however. It should be pointed out that the Film Club presents many fine films, both American and foreign. Frequently there are previ- ous Academy Award Winners among them, and usually the season is climaxed by a humorous vehicle such as this year ' s Burlesque on Carmen, starring Charlie Chaplin. editor! al staff Kenneth M.

Twenty-five times a year these same ink-stained wretches of the fourth estate must face a hyper-critical student body and their frantic complaints of minor misspellings, typographical errors, and mistaken dates. Despite such weekly tribulations, not to mention hectic Sunday-night vigils in the News room, Editor Ken Moser and Managing Editor Tony Morley managed to nurse the News through its second full year as a seven-column paper. The secret of success during 1949-1950 was in the largest and most efficient staff of reporters since the war. With an average of over 20 news stories each week, it was a rare issue that did not cover everything from dormitory rent increases to club meetings and the planting of new shrubs. Most consistently news-worthy topic of the year was the Haverford fund drive, thoroughly covered by News Editor Freddy Hetzel. The News also gave a big play to off-campus faculty doings, to administration decisions closely affecting student life, to extracurricular activities, and to such features as the Prof in Profile series. Perennially problematical page 2 came in for a lot of attention this year. Business-like Floyd Ford managed to steer a safe course between Bennett Cooper and Ken Moser, to produce the best alumni columns of recent years. At the same time Gus Seder and Billy Peifer kept Haverford amused with their sage comments on college life as seen through Billy Rose-colored glasses, while Darwin Prockop rounded up letters, play reviews a nd the like to assuage the intellectuals. Editorially, the News ' great contribution came from a campaign to keep the administration on its toes in regard to liberalizing cut regulations in favor of the students. No one wants a college paper without a sports page. On the other hand no one would ever see a college paper that had no business staff to bring order out of incomprehensible financial chaos. Four men were primarily responsible for handling these vital departments during 1949-50: Dave Tilley and Dave Western in sports, Tom Stern and Dick Eberly in business. 82 First Row: Eberly, Stern, Moser, Morley, Tilley; Second Row: Freund, Foley, Werner, Gundry, Grant.

Much less reliable were the chances of any given story ' s coming in on time, or of getting back- page runover space from the incredibly vague Moser Morley. All this sometimes led to violent Sunday-night arguments about who was going to straighten things out at the printer ' s on Monday. One of these two indomitable sports scribes always turned up, though, and with the help of scissors and considerable glue was able to turn out a complete, good looking sports page. On the business side Stern in the fall and Eberly in the winter were faced with problems of large- scale deficit financing, somewhat ameliorated by two-page sports issue for the Swarthmore game. Come February, however, they put their astute heads together, shot adrenalin into the small staff at their disposal, and cooked up some long-ra nge plans that should keep this expensive venture more firmly on its feet in the future.

However, the copy and photographs did manage to emerge from the midst of scat- tered course notes and physics books, coat pockets and desk drawers when the time came. Writing (and we hope you read more than the heads and captions under the pictures) was the happy task of Dave Philips, Dick Eberly, Rog Morrell and an unnamed battalion of scribes (who prefer that their articles rest on their in- trinsic literary value, rather than have the weight and reputation of the author ' s name attached). Don Martin and his store-to-store salesmen ( With each five ads the yearbook guaran- tees a new pair of shoes. ) kept the staff in a financially pleasant frame of mind; knowing the means were there helped.

Stettenheim, Sutton, Zim- merman, DIetz, Eeeser, Hastings, Wilbur, A record 120 members got the year off to a flying start. It was a musical rather than a social season, with stress on three major works — by Haydn, Handel, and Vaughan Williams. Singing with the Philadelphia orchestra was the high spot of the early season. The midyear slack brought on by exams and the tough Haydn recording was taken up by the rejuvenating spring trip. Rehearsals, that little-known 90 per cent of glee club life, were kept lively by director William Reese and his quaint stories of musical life in Germany ( Reesian anecdotes ) which didn ' t seem to require punch-lines. The vocalizing lent a distmc- tive, if bizzare, touch to the atmosphere. The officers per- petually bobbed up to make announcements, with ears tuned to audience reaction, usually vehement. Manager Nev Curtis kept details under control, and won fame as a dispenser of apricots. There were tickets to sell, overnight bunks to get, cars to grab, and (as financier Freeman groaned) endless bills to pay. Presid- ing, Jim Deltz worked in pep talks about the spring trip or the crowning home concert with Hollins ' chorus as guests. There were jaunts to Hunter College Playhouse, Goucher, and Westtown. There were the artists, represented by Reese and Davison who tuned the piano in the middle of a rehearsal; and there were the pursuers of the good life who wanted to know how late the girls could stay out on the spring trip ' s eve- nings. The college bards had a lively year, with laughs, hard work and achievement, and good times.

Brooks Cooper, Jeanne Fieri and Chris Amussen, among others, gave excellent support, and the show was well received. The spring play at Haverford, Juno and the Paycock by Sean O ' Casey, was the first play to have a student director for some years; R. S. McKinley designed and directed the production. William Bishop, as Captain Boyle, gave perhaps the best per- formance since Ted Shakespeare ' s Lear, and Marjory Low again won plaudits for her handling of Juno. Dave Thomas and Trish Richardson carried Joxer and Mrs. Madigan to perfection and in many of the darker sections of the campus, Irish is still the prevailing tongue. The Drama Club, newly chartered as a member organization of the Cap and Bells, ventured on its own for the first time this year under the benevolent dictatorship of R. S. McKinley. Faced with the problem of a lack of trained actors and technical crews, the major portion of the year ' s program was laid out to generate interest within both Haverford and Bryn Mawr Colleges. You Can ' t Tjke It With You. The two-sex system was only one of the many effective systems devised to promote tryouts for the year ' s productions. The fall show at Bryn Mawr, Liliom, was directed by McKinley and starred William Boyle Bishop and Eritha von der Goltz. Nancy Pearre, Robin Nevltt, and Roger Morrell, to mention a few, produced very fine performances and the show was considered a success. In addition, the dif- ficult staging was very well handled by Betsy Swope, the stage manager, and a crew of thousands. The Haverford production of Anderson ' s Elizabeth the Queen given in December and also directed by McKinley, lacked much of the fire of the first production but was well received. Most notable were the performances of Marjory Low and Brooks Cooper, both of whom are old familiars to Roberts Hall audiences. Together with Roger Morrell and a good supporting cast, the show was very capably handled. The new officers of the Drama Club find the organization a going concern with a number of young actors and technicians with considerable experience. However, no director has as yet been found, and while the Club is young and expanding, there are no experienced actors and technicians to step immediately into the shoes of Bishop, Cooper and McKinley, all of whom grad- uate this spring. The close cooperation with Bryn Mawr has already paid great dividends in the efficient use of talent and equipment and may prove the answer to many problems, as the success of this year ' s efforts has indicated. language clubs f renc On alternate Sunday evenings the French Club met in an informal study of France — through French conversation and a glimpse at art, poli- tics, customs, and attitudes — with the help of frequent movies and speakers. That touch of glamour which assures the true French spirit, was added by the assistance of girls from Bryn Mawr. Talks ranged from Pro- fessor Gutwirth ' s Some Nasty Aspects of French Culture to Professor Roche ' s search into the mire of French politics, and were pointed up by Mrs. Wylie ' s characteristically Parisian refresh- ments — wassail and chocolate maiteds. The year ' s activity culminated in a gala soiree at Le Petit Casino du Lac (otherwise notoriously known as the Skating House.) german The highlight of the German Club activities this year was the production of Goethe ' s Urfaust, done in cooperation with the Bryn Mawr German Club to celebrate the Goethe bicentennial year. A never-to-be-forgotten scene was the hilarious presentation of the Auerbachs Keller scene by members of the Bryn Mawr and Haverford faculties. Most of the German Club programs are car- ried out jointly with the Bryn Mawr German Club. Besides purely social occasions for the purpose of singing favorite German songs and dancing, there have been meetings to present various speakers, for instance, to hear reports on conditions in German universities by visiting students from Germany. Spanish Under the able direction of James C. Peden the Spanish Club centered its activities around two major programs during the first term. Both took place amid the spacious surroundings of the famous Casa de Espanol, located on Oakley Road. The first meeting was a complete success, due to the invasion of la Casa by some forty- five Bryn Mawr and Rosemont lovelies. They were our partners in an exciting evening of South American dance instruction under the guidance of a graceful young lady from a well known Phila- delphia dancing school. In the second reunion an inspiring lecture was presented by Jose Ferrater Mora of Bryn Mawr. He enlightened the group with certain philosophical aspects of Don Quixote. ,yy, ' y, ' . ' .

With these confident words, Haverford ' s radio station asserts its claim to an Important place on the stu- dent ' s radio dial. WHRC has climbed a long way since its formation originally as WHAV In 1942 by a handful of interested students. Very grad- ually it began to flourish, with the result that during the past two years the dingy attic space it once occupied has been transformed into a modern layout of con- trol room and three studios, all well sound proofed and well equipped. Upon occasion the program quality in the past was not up to the calibre of studios and equipment, but by the beginning of this academic year a balance had been achieved between technical and productive aspects. In fact, the casual listener might find the quality of some programs equal to that of many com- mercial stations. Programs go off on sched- ule Instead of any old time as was often the rule in the past, and greater variety of pro- grams Is the keynote effort of the board members. Greater activity during the past year or so has been the theme of the station. The acquisition of a tape recorder and the run- ning of new lines to centers of campus activity by the technical department have made sports coverage and other special events possible. The technical staff is com- pleting its efforts to get WBMC of Bryn Mawr operating once again, and plans are progressing for a hookup between the two colleges once again, as well as forming a network with Harcum and Villanova. recreational clubs bridge photo ' - ' Ijjlfe-:; ' I ' lilM WmM,, ' H%««(« L 1 ENTION the two o ' clock club at other colleges ' and you ' ll probably get regaled with stories about the local bars.

This is definitely a hopeful and healthy sign. Now, along with the usual varsity activities, there has been an increased emphasis placed on intramural athletics, a valuable addition to the program of giving a chance to participate to all those who are interested in sports. Major sports such as football, soccer, basketball, wrestling, baseball, track, and tennis form tne backbone of the intercollegiate athletic program of Haverford College. Add to these cross country, fencing, cricket, sailing, and golf and you have almost as conrplete a list of athletics as is ofFered by any college. There is no doubt that Haverford suffers from a lack of facilities in which to train and participate in sports. And this places a certain burden and handicap on some teams, especially during the winter months. It is next to impossible to maintain a tremendous intramural basketball and volleyball program at a high level of efficiency when varsity teams must use the same facilities. Yet, despite these difficulties, both intramural and varsity sports are receiving better attention than ever before. It can only be hoped that the facilities for athletics will improve over the years, so that a strong body as well as a strong mind can be developed at Haverford, without the threat of limitation and handicap caused by lack of proper and adequate athletic facilities. Bill Docherty, having given up his basketball coaching duties, has been able to devote almost al his time to intramural athletics. Working with a student committee under the able direction of Sam Colman, Bill has continually striven to improve the intramural rules, the officiating, the caliber of play, and the schedules. It has been a tremendous job against no little odds, but the tenor of intramural athletics is definitely on the upgrade. The addition of adequate intramural referees and officials and the continued interest in Class Athletic Day show the importance placed on intramural athletics by the students themselves. — Varsity athletic teams have taken their lumps so far this year, and it is hoped improvement will show in varsity teams come Spring. Swarthmore has already wrapped up the 1949-1950 Hood Trophy with victories in the five fall and winter sports, but Haverford still has a chance to redeem itself in the days to come. 93 t ' Jkk  ■ -nr Top: C.

Havertord ' s football fortunes nearly hit rocit bottom during the past season, the team managing to salvage only one victory and a tie from a seven-game schedule. The Drexel rout prompted Coaches Roy Randall and Bill Docherty to abandon the experimental T- formation and revert to the single wing. We simply lacked the experienced men necessary to malce the intricate T worit properly. The opening tie with Ursinus was a disappointment, al- though not an actual loss, and we had nothing to cheer about until the Susquehanna game. Even then, it took last minute heroics to avert another tie. Against Swarthmore, It was the usual story; we played them off their feet In the second half, but they happened to Itlcic the pig sit in through the uprights once more than we did. A heartbrealter, 14-13. Captain Ted Test closed out his college career on a high note and In the role that has always suited him best — as a runner. Very fast and strong, Ted ripped off 162 personal yards in the second half of the Swarthmore game. Although injuries plagued him throughout the season, he was a touch- down threat every time he got his hands on the ball. Johnny Hume was a steady performer all year. He had many opportunities to exhibit his versatility due to the injury plague which struck us below the belt twice, crippling two of our brightest stars. Bud Garrison, field general and triple threat man, was felled for the season in the first game, while Moose Amussen, veteran line cracker and punter, suffered a similar fate while scoring a touchdown against Juniata. These were heavy blows, but imperturbable Ted Hibberd and whippet Andy BrIod assisted Test and Hume in keeping things humming. Outstanding backfleld play of the year was the last minute, cross-country aerial which Hume football nestled in Test ' s arms for a 7-0 win over Susquehanna. By that time the baclcfeld was operating under the familiar single wing and finding it far more profitable than the T. The T hampered the line, too, and it was not until the second half of the Juniata game that the forward wai ' began to realize its potentialities. Seniors Reg Collier, brilliant offensive end, Stan Greenwald, a tower of strength ai taclcle, and Phil Maroney, a low-slung rock at guard, led the rejuvenation. Pete Steere came along like a run-away tank with his bruising play at guard. Others who shared the ever-changing guard assignments were grappler Bill Rode- wald, Piggy Holcombe, Fred Strohl, and Jack Treynor. Harry Nason missed seeing a lot of action due to a broken nose. Returning next year are men who form the nucleus for a potentially fine forward wall. Don Chandler is a crashing defensive end. Bill Conklin and Leo Dvorken will give us two experienced tackles, while Walt Young and Jerry Crowley supply depth and experience at the center post. Chosen as Co-Captains for the 1950 season were Pete Steere and Bud Garrison. Steere ' s fiery play makes him a natural leader on the gridiron. It is a tribute to the team ' s faith in Garrison ' s shelved brilliance that he was chosen to pair off with Pete. The choice could not have been better, and the prospects for next year are automatically higher as a result. band The Band started the season. Its most active yet, with new uniforms. These consisted oi scarlet blazers with black trim, purchased with money borrowed trom the college, and gray flannel trousers and blacic ties supplied by the members themselves. Under the able direction of Bill Peifer and Larry Autenrelth the Band, twenty- two strong, supplied the customary musi- cal support at the football games. During the fall the Band sponsored two dances to defray the cost of uniforms with Secretary-Treasurer Jim French handling the finances. The first dance added to the festivities of Homecoming day in mid- October, and the second followed the fall production of Cap and Bells. Music for these occasions was furnished by a twelve piece orchestra composed of Band members and directed by Don McCargar. At this writing plans for activity during the spring are materializing. These include building up spirit for the annual Interclass Athletic Day and providing intermission music for the Class Night Program. Plans are also being made to give another dance In coniunctlon with the Cap and Bells spring production In May. President Barton Mllllgan hopes that this will not only further reduce the debt on the uniforms but also help to re-establish the pre-war tradition of having dances after all Cap and Bells productions. The Band has come a long way since Its Inception three years ago, and Its possibilities for the future are bright.

However, the cheerleaders this year have really con- tributed something to the college. Led by Bev Edmiston, the yellers, including John Johnston, Dick Baltzell, John Moritz, Pete Jenney, and Bill Grey, decided to do something about giving a permanent nick-name to college athletic teams. Previous Scarlet varsity teams had been referred to as everything from Hornets to — well, you name it. The boys decided that Fords was the appelation that best suited. So they purchased, with the help of student contributions, a mascot which would most closely carry out the nickname. What else could that be but a Ford automobile? This vintage 1922 Model T actually moved under its own power, and with a little scarlet and black paint applied to strategic places really looked quite decent. This product of Henry Ford ' s early genius made its appearance at all the home football games and was towed over to the Swarthmore game. The Ford was officially christened by Pat Docherty between the halves of the Drexel football game after Presi- dent White and Mac had maneuvered it on the field before the contest. What ' s most Important, the little black car seems to have really accomplished its original purpose. For people and the papers have come to refer to the teams as Fords, and nothing but Fords. The cheerleaders were also instrumental in making the pre-Swarthmore game pep-rally the howling success that it was. Bev Edmiston and master-of-ceremonies. Pappy Neuhaus, arranged the program for that evening. And throughout the different seasons, but especially during the football season, the cheering crew did its darndest to keep up the enthusiasm and ecitement of the crowds and, through organized cheer- ing, to urge the teams on to greater heights. soccer Haverford, fall, 1949. Meet Jimmy Mills, the man with the new soccer look for old ' 88 field. The man responsible for an outbreak of Scotch accents in the locker room, for funda- mentals with a practical slant, and skipping rope ( It de- velops the spring in your legs ). Strategy got a shakeup, too. It was simply a question of learning how to play real soccer; the old game of long boot was out. Use your head and pass, pass, pass. The line learned to move the ball downfield without moving it out of bounds before they got to the goal, the wing halts learned how to feed the line, and the three fullback system came into prominence with Andy Lucine the kingpin in an eighty-eight minute trio of H. Wood, Lucine and Karl Spaeth. The Penn game, the team ' s collegiate debut, was a sweet victory. With Haverford on the short end of a 2-1 score in the last period, John Woll tallied and tied the game up; Arnie Jones to Paul Shipley finished the work in the over- time, 3-2. Lucine, Wood, and John Doane in goal, stood out in the tight defense. In the first two league games, the line, which was learning it could do beautiful things with the short passing style, ran roughshod over Lafayette (6-1) and Muhlenberg (8-1). Navy held off Haverford ' s serious second-half pressure to win 2-1; but chits, Lummox Spaeth ' s encounter with the iello, and the impression made by 3300 bell-conditioned, frenzied, chow-bent cadets, took some of the sting out of the loss. But the bad news kept on coming. The loss to Lehigh (3-5), the team ' s third game in seven days, was hard to stomach; Lehigh ' s surprising drive in the opening minutes gave them a lead the Millsmen never caught up with. In the Ursinus game (3-0) the Scarlet and Black booters got back in the win column, and with Drexel (4-1) it was evident that Haverford ' s soccer men were back in top form. JIMMY MILLS November 21st, 1949, was a black Friday of the first order. Grey skies and a cold wind accented the Millsmen ' s grim desire to take Swarthmore and the league title. But whoever flips the coin of fate favored the Hicksites that day. A penalty in the first few minutes put the Garnet ahead, 1-0. For the rest of the struggle, the line and halfbacks Bob Kirk, Bill Rhoads and Bobby Young, pounded Swarthmore ' s goal; shots In the corners were deflected, bounced off the posts, flicked the cross-bar, none ever went in. Final score: 1-0. It was a hard fought bit+pr end to the season. On the brighter side, the Alumni soccer club, windless wonders of the playing field, donated the hfaverford College Soccer Trophy, to be awarded to the player who has contributed most in skill and sportmanship to the success of the season. Fittingly enough, the man whose name will always be first on the cup, is a sportsman and player who will always be tops in Haverford soccer history: Andrew Deran Lucine.

The 1949 edition of the cross-country team, without the flying legs of Jim Grosholi, managed to win but two of six Intercollegiate meets. Despite this showing, however, there were several bright spots showing through the rather dark season. The first of these was the course record set by Tom Snipes at Gettysburg College. Running in a triangular meet with Muhlenberg and Gettysburg, Snipes not only won the only race the Fords took all season, but also loped over the V 2 mile course in 16:42, the new record. The other ray of sunshine took the form of a Freshman, one Joe Stein, who, though he never managed to place higher than fifth In any meet, scored among the top nine in four meets. Stein was also the first Scarlet harrier to finish In the St. Joseph ' s, LaSalle, Temple quadrangular tilt. Joe will undoubtedly Improve over the years and in a few seasons should develop Into Haddleton ' s number one boy on the X-country squad. Captain Dick Rankin also had a good season as he placed within the top six on four different occasions. Including two fourths, a fifth, and a sixth. John Bell, captain-elect for 1950, was dogged by the number seven throughout the entire season. It was his unlucky number. John placed seventh In no fewer than four meets and just missed a seventh (he was eight) In the Muhlenberg -Gettysburg triangular meet. Others who performed well for the Scarlet and Black were Rufus Rudisill, 1950 track captain, and Bud Walker and Gouv Cad- wallader, the well-known wrestlers. These boys worked hard all season and broke into the top ten finishers on several occasions. The Fords got off to a shaky start. They dropped a dual meet at Lehigh 16-44, and then fell to St. Joe (15), LaSalle (63), and Temple (80). In the latter meet (hlaverford had an 84 score), the tremendously powerful St. Joseph ' s :eam placed men 1-2-3-4-5, and Walt Szmldt, their number one runner, set a Haverford course record, 18:58.2 for V 2 miles. Following a 15-44 loss to Lafayette, the Scarlet won two In a row: Haverford (25), Lincoln (36), Ursinus (82) and Haverford (29), Muhlenberg (39), Gettysburg (64). However, In the Hood Trophy run, Swarthmore, led by Alden Stevenson, dropped the Fords 21-34. Tom Snipes ( 19:51 ) took a second place, twelve seconds behind Stevenson. 100 The fall Intramural program offered inter-class competition in both touch football and soccer. In touch football each class was represented by at least one team, the Freshmen by two. In soccer the Seniors were the only class not competing, while the Sophomores started the season with two teams. However, they merged at the close of competition. Each sport had Its own particular set of rules to supplement a general set of Intramural rules, applicable to all sports. The Class of 1950 was the ruling power In the Intramural touch football league. Lead by Karl (Crusher) Manwiller. and featuring the running of scat-bacit George Colman and the pass snatching of Bill Vogel. the Seniors swept all opponents before them as they copped twelve straight league contests. Other members of this potent senior aggregation were Bill Llnthlcum, Ted Eastman. Bud Walker, Wilson Jones, Ken Moser. Ev Cooper, Luke Martin, and Diehl Mateer. The other teams straggled far behind, but competition between the four others was spirited. Each team usually managed to schedule two games per week. The Sophomore class retained the laurels that they won last year In the soccer competition, although they had a tough time holding off the fighting Freshmen and the jumpln ' Juniors. League competition was very close throughout the season. Out of twenty games played there were a surprising number of tie games, eight In all. This state of affairs made the league even closer. All soccer games were played on Merlon Field. fall At the close of the fall season, which extended from the first of October to the middle of November, playoffs In the fall sports were played for the first time. In past years the Intramural Athletic Plaque has been awarded on the basis of Class Athletic Day only. Since this Class Day involves only winter sports, It was decided by the Intramural Athletic Committee that playoffs In fall and spring sports should be Inaugurated and that the plaque should be given to the winner of the playoffs and Class Athletic Day or on a point basis. In the playoffs the Senior football power- house won handily, but the Sophomore soccer team, which took the regular league competition, fell by the wayside and the Juniors won the playoff. At the end of the fall season the Seniors held a slim lead In the over-all Intramural race. The Juniors and Freshmen were tied for second place one point behind the pace-setters, and the Sophs brought up the rear. With the playoffs the fall Intramural program came to a cirse. FHere was the first indication that Haverford College Is well on Its way to a vigorous, healthy, and all-encompassing system of Intramural athletics. The rules for play are better, the competition Is spirited, and more and more students are competing. A program to keep up with student Interest has finally become established. t r SENIOR FOOTBALL First Row: G. Colman. W. Llnthl- cum, Cole, Manwiller, Moser, Eastman; Second Row: A.

When there was a lull in the conversation, a Rhinie sitting near by ventured to ask a question. What was last year ' s basketball team like? One of the Senior ' s stretched his teet further under the table and replied: The season wasn ' t too successful, although I think the team was better than its 4-10 record indicates. A Junior sitting near by picked up the conversation: Those close games were something. I remember In the season ' s opening game, the team made up an eleven point deficit In the fourth quarter only to lose to F and M. 69-68 on a foul shot by Zink. The first Swarthmore game was an- other. The team played Inspired ball that night. They led until there were eleven seconds to play; then Rellly con- verted a foul shot to give the Garnet a 59-58 lead. Pott ' s field goal made the final score 61-58. Sam Colman and Paul Bomze led the way that night. Sam got nineteen points and played a magnificent defensive game. Paul made 22 points and held Rellly to three field goals while he guarded him. We had a twelve point lead at one point in that game. Don ' t forget tViat first Delaware game either. We had a four point lead with a minute a.nd a half left. Then It was a two point lead, and soon the game was tied up. With ten seconds left Delaware converted a foul- shot and be- came the victor by a 50-49 count. Hopkins was our fourth close game of the season. We made a terrific come-back in the fourth quarter and nearly tied them when time ran out. The final score w - ' s 70-68. Dave Clark made an auspicious varsity debut that night, scoring 13 points. First Row: D. Amussen, Bomze, S. Colman, Capt. Tollin, W. Betson, S. Colman, Foster; Second Row: Coach Prlzer, Cur- ran, R.

Surge, P. hHollInshead, Broadbelt, Bockol. 102 13 ' md im At that point a Sophomore, carrying a cup of coffee care- fully to a table aslted a thought provoking question. What do you thinit were the season ' s highlights? When Bomze held Rellly to thirteen points In the second Swar+hnnore ganne was something. That was Rellly ' s lowest point total of the season. A third party remarked, Yes, but Swarthmore won that one, 71-60. A Junior In the corner reminded everyone that the 1949- 1950 basketball season was Bill Prizer ' s first at Haverford. He also added that Captain Soils Tollln ' s consistent play all year certainly was an outstanding feature of the season. By this time a couple of boys waiting for their hamburgers joined the conversation. One of them loudly reminded the other students that the quintet had won four very decisive victories. We beat Ursinus twice, the first time 67-53 and the second game we won 82-59. In the second game, Bomie, Hurtublse, and Tollln combined for over sixty points. The first Ursinus game was the team ' s league debut. Do you remember the Textile game? We won that 91-32. Four players hit double figures. They were Bomze, Tollin, Jim Foster, and George Colman. And don ' t forget we were victorious over Pharmacy, 76-58. Bomze and Dick Betson were the story that night with 26 and 16 respectively. The Freshman asked. What were the other defeats like? Oh. we lost to Lehigh, 65-55. That game was played with- out Sol. Their fast break was too much. P.M.C. took us over twice. The first time the score was 57-45. and the second was 86-65; Sol was outstanding both nights. In the first game against Drexel we lead 34-30 at half time, but after the Intermission their shooting was uncanny and the fnal was 79-68. favor of Drexel. In the second game Moose Amussen was a pillar of strength for a losing cause as Drexel won, 61-49. Sol led the point parade that night with 24. The Blue Hens of Delaware won the second game easily, 58-41. Someone In the back yelled out, How ' s the team look this year? Not bad, everyone ' s back except George Colman and Jim Foster. Last season, Clark, Hurtublse. Bockol. and Bomze were Freshmen, and Amussen, Tollln and Sam Colman were Juniors. If . . . At this point the bell rang and the meeting broke up. 103 Q © o o t ft St First Row: Capt. Rodewald, Maroney, Harper, Cadwallader, Walker, Dodge, Flanders, Bair; Second Row: Frazer.

' ' _ ' ' l ' it ' . ' ' i wres tli ng With popular Bill Shihadeh at the helm, wrestling at Haverford continued its upsurge during the past season. Crowds became larger at each succeeding meet, a tribute to the increased popularity of the sport, and, despite the fact that the team log showed three wins and five losses, every meet except one was close enough to have gone the other way. The loss to Bucknel! seems to have been the bad omen which prophesied the trend of things to come, for, by pre-season crystal- gazing, we counted on beating everyone but the Gettysburg pro- fessionals. Ailments and bad luck dogged our footsteps all year. At present, the Middle Atlantic Tournament is still to come and the team has an excellent chance to recapture the third spot it earned last year. (Ed. Note: They did.) Bill Rodewald, Captain and Middle Atlantic 175-pound champion, showed to good advantage his tireless perfection as he continued to handle jumbo heavyweights with ease. Bill was a fine captain and a marvel to watch on the mat. Seniors who will bow out this year with Captain Rodewald are four-year veterans Phil Maroney and Bud Walker. Maroney, colorful 175-pounder, strung together four straight wins in the latter part of the season and was a team mainstay throughout. Walker, who per- formed at 145, 155, and 165 pounds on different occasions, reached the high point of his season in the Ursinus match by pinning the Bears ' captain, 1949 155-pound Middle Atlantic runner-up. Lee HHarper, powerful 165-pounder, was another senior who did a fine job all year, meeting the toughest of opposition. Crowd pleaser Gov Cadwallader used his tricky leg holds to earn four pins and a decision as a 155 and 145-pounder. Unorthodox and determined, Gov never failed to put on a good show. John Dodge, veteran 1 3 6- pounder, came on with a rush toward the end of the season, dropping down to 128 pounds to win his last two bouts of the year. Freshman Harry Balr had a fine season at 121 pounds, winning two bouts by falls. A knee Injury hampered Harry in the last two meets. Phil Flanders and Lloyd Loechel split the duties at 1 28 pounds, Phil winning three of the first four matches and Lloyd doing a convincing leg job on his Drexel man. When Dodge took over at 128. Loechel, Flanders, and Bob Atkinson each did a stint at 136 pounds. The line up varied from week to week, giving Haverford fans a variety of wrestlers to watch. Clark Llghtfoot, Bob Seeley, and Scotty Klmmlch each performed at 145 pounds. Another feature of the season was the Increased number of Junior Varsity meets. A commendable idea, it gave twice as many men the opportunity of wrestling. In summation, too much credit cannot be given to Coach Shihadeh; he was an Inspiring and devoted mentor. f enc ing With a 3-2 record to date and matches with Lafayette and Princeton to be played, Coach Henri Gordon ' s fencers appear to be on the way to another successful season. Led by Dave Rowe, the red-headed foil magician, the Scarlet has already walloped Delaware, Johns HHopltins, and Temple, and lost close decisions to Rutgers and Penn. If would have been quite a feat for the 1950 Issue of sword rattlers to maintain the precedent set by the 1949 boys, who dropped but one match, and that one to Princeton by a single point. With the loss of sabermen Dave Tolan and Paul Kelly, two top point- getters, it would have been a miracle, as a matter of fact. But Coach Gordon still had Rowe, team captain Tom Todd, outstanding epeemen Sam hHudson and Dave McCarn, and Karl Spaeth, the demon saber swinger, to form the back- bone of a strong outfit. To date the llghtnlng-qulcic Rowe has been the outstanding man on the team as far as garnering points Is concerned. In five matches he has lost but two bouts, both at Rutgers, and has white-washed his opponents on four occasions. With his sly smile and deadly blade he makes most of his op- ponents cry uncle, or whatever It Is that fencers yell. Sam Hudson has a 10-5 record to date to lead the epee team, which has been greatly strengthened this year by the edition of a very promising Sophomore, Roger Jones. Kar ' Spaeth, a man-mountain who fences with the deft strokes of an artist. Is on his way to another fine season. Hudson had a 14-7 season record In 1 949 while Spaeth won nine of six- teen bouts. Both of these men seemed to be Improved. This year Haverford will again send several men to the Intercollegiate championship matches. Last year Tolan, Rowe, and Hudson made the trip, and others will undoubtedly vie for a place on the team In 1950, though there are no definite plans at this writing. squash Squash is a last, tough game played on a huge court. Because of the dough it costs to build a place to play the game, squash has unfortunately, but necessarily, been rele- gated to exclusive clubs in the larger cities of the country. But squash definitely has a place in this yearbook even though the majority of the students have never seen a game played. Why? Because Haverford College has been the stamping ground of one of the outstanding squash players in the country, G. Diehl Mateer, Jr. Diehl began copping championships while he was but a Sophomore at Haverford and had been at the game little more than two years. In that year he journeyed to Yale University, and there, in the huge Payne Whitney gymnasium, battled his way to the final round of the National Inter- collegiate Singles Championship. To cop his first major crown, Mateer then defeated Bayne of Yale. Mateer has completed a banner season in 1949-1950. He took the New York Intercollegiate Invitation for the third straight year, a unique accomplishment; and he and Lott again teamed to cop the Lockett Cup and Pennsylvania State Doubles for the third straight year. The latter tourna- ments had never before been won by the same team for three years in succession. Later in the 1949-50 season Diehl won both the Harry Cowles Tournament in New York and the Pennsylvania State Men ' s Tournament. In the latter tourney he defeated Charles Brinton 3-0, but later lost to Brinton by 3-2 scores in the Plainfield and Washington, D. C. tournaments. At this writing Mateer is priming himself for the National Men ' s Doubles Championships to be held in St. Louis. First Row: McCarn, Thornton, Hudson, Rowe, Capt. T. Todd, R.

The scoring, based on seven points for the participation of a full team, six points for a victory, and four points for a loss, annually assures close competition. This season, how- ever, with the Sophomores capturing the volleyball title, the Seniors the basketball crown, and the Freshmen the grappling championship, the final tallies were even less separated than in the past two years when the class of ' 50 was victorious. The Sophomores through their volleyball championship and consolation wrestling win, and preliminary basketball vic- tory totaled 73 points. One point was deducted for an in- complete wrestling team in a preliminary match. The Seniors gathered 72 points by winning the basketball title and land- ing In runner-up position in volleyball. The Juniors managed 72 points by consolation wins in volleyball and basketball and placing second in wrestling. The Freshmen trailed with 70 points, showing power only In wrestling where they copped the title with little opposition. In basketball the Seniors presented a fast breaking attack which was spearheaded by the high scoring Runcle Tatnall and featured the talented play of Bill Vogel, Don Martin. Moose Amussen, and Karl Manwlller. The tall Seniors evinced little difficulty In disposing of the Freshmen in the preliminary contest, 50-43, and a scrappy Sophomore quintet in +he final, 37-28. In the consolation match the Juniors edged a hard fighting Freshman five 32-30 on a last second set shot by Bucky Harris. The volleyball crown fell to the Sophomores as the Soph ' s, paced by Paul Sterner, Fritz Killian, Gerry Freund, and Ted Hibberd overcame the Juniors 17-15; 15-8, and then out- lasted the Seniors 15-8; 16-14. The Freshman Wrestling Team lived up to its advance notices and made short work of their upperclass foes in both the preliminaries and the finals. The Frosh team, made up of Brobyn. 128; McCurdy, 138; Matteson, 148; Bill Wood, 158; Thomas and Haines, 168; Crlchlow, 178; Morrison and Dvorken, Unlimited; swamped the Seniors 27-7 to reach the finals, and then took the measure of the Juniors 21-8. 106 INTRAMURAL COMMITTEE Front Row: Jowers, Getman, T. Stern, Burge. Webb. Back Row: Dolbeare, Curran, S. Colman. G. Colman, Man- wilier, Llnthlcum, Tilley. The 1949-50 Winter Intramural program was without doubt the largest and most active Intramural program in the history of Haverford College. Eleven basketball squads and eight volley ball teams manned by more than 200 players met in 243 contests to determine the league leadership in these two sports. In the eleven team basketball league the Junior A squad far out-distanced the field, posting a remarkable 12-0 season record. This marks the first undefeated intra- mural basketball team since 1947 when the Class of ' 47 turned the trick. Outstanding for the Junior aggrega- tion was the aggressive play of Darwin Prockop and Pary Sharpless, the marksmanship of Dick Eberly and Ed Keetz, and the backboard control of Al Clayton and Ken Dolbeare. Close behind the high flying Juniors were the Sophomore A and B teams, with M-2 and 10-3 records. The Soph A ' s, paced by the league ' s unofficial high scorer, Don James, and the rugged defensive play of Bob Collins; and the Soph B ' s, led by the high scoring Paul Sterner and the steady play of Bob Philips; clearly marked the classy teams of the league. Strung out behind these league leaders were the Senior A ' s (6-5) headed by Inter-Class star Runcle Tatnall and the towering Luke Martin, Moose Amussen, and Andy Boyd; the aggressive Soph C battlers (5-7), boosted by Fred Osier, Frank Keetz, and Rog Sorg; Karl Manwlller ' s Senior B ' s (4-7); Joe Stein ' s Frosh C squad (4-7); Bill Boteler ' s Junior B ' s (4-8); Phil Vance ' s Frosh A ' s (4-8); the Frosh B ' s (3-8): while the notorious Junior Vets trailed the league once again with a 2-10 season. In the volleyball league six teams battled futilely to overcome the two Sophomore teams ' strangle hold on the league leadership. The Soph B ' s, sparked by Bob Franke, Paul Sterner, and Fritz Kllllan. recorded a 15-1 season to edge their Soph A mates, featuring Gerry Freund and Carter Bledsoe, who trailed with a 13-4 record. tramurals Far in the rear, the Senior ' s 6-3 record gave them third position. Their season started weakly with three losses, then they withdrew completely only to reorganize and rally strongly with six victories, including a win over the champion Soph B ' s (the Sophs only loss of the season), Stan Greenwald. Bill Vogel, and Lulte Martin, along with Captain Ted Eastman led the Senior team. In fourth place was the most heralded team in the league, the Faculty. The talented profs though handicapped by schedule difficulties did manage four wins and two losses, not including an exhibition victory over a selected student team during the Inter-Class Day competition. Stellar members of the Faculty combo Include Cactus Clete Oalcley, Spike Sanford, Ira The Arm Reid, Fingers Lester, Slick Bill Docherty, Willie The Lip Cadbury, and Pop hiaddleton. The Junior and Freshman teams brought up the rear of the league. 107 track Track 3+ Haverford College for the past four years has been synonymous wi+h James R. Grosholz. Wl+h due respect to other Ford track giants, Grosholz can be tagged as the greatest of them all. Jim had a banner year In 1949 as he moved Into national prominence. During the season the tall, effortless runner established three Haverford College records; in the mile 4:24.5; the 880, 1:51.2; and the 440. 0:49.7. He was M.A.C.T. F.A. mile and half mile champion. He ended his college career with a brilliant 1:51. 2 cloclclng, running in the National AAU 880 yard run In Los Angeles. Racing the finest half-mllers In the country. Including Ma! Whitfield, Ohio State Olympic champion and winner of the race, Grosholz took a fifth place and set a new Haverford record. Physically and spiritually he led Pop Haddleton ' s trackmen to a 4-1 season In 1949. His tremendous contribution to the team cannot be undestlmated. Without Grosholz. and Evan Jones and Stan Greenwald, two more perennial point-getters. Coach Haddleton will have a job cut out for him to mold a winning team. In the short distances Sophomore Ell Halpern should be a winner after his Impressive showing In 1 949. Freshman candlates also may help bring in place points for the short runs. Over the longer courses there are problems. Captain Rufus Rudlslll, who has Improved over three years at his specialty, the mile, and others like John Bell. Gouv Cadwallader, Tom Snipes. Andre Brlod, and the Kirk brothers will form the nucleus of the distance runners. The muscles of the track team ' s body will be in the field events. John Hume, a Junior who did not compete last year because of the transfer student rule, could lead all point-getters this season. His specialties are the high and broad jumps and the pole vault. John Doane, an old hand at the weights, is still competing, as we as Fred Strohl. another weight thrower. Tom Wilson, a vaulter, Arnold Jones, broad jumper, and John Kllllan and Ed Macbeth, high jumpers, all can make great contributions to the job of amassing points. It has been bandied about the campus that there will be num- erous Freshman prospects who could possibly swing the balance of the team a little to the track side. Among these Joe Stein, a miler, and Burt Saldel, dash-man, look promising. Right now the accent Is on field events, but If Pop could develop a few good leg-men, the 1950 team could be well balanced. If anyone can mold a winning team from this raw material Coach A. W. Pop Haddleton can do it. For twenty -eight years Pop has guided the track wars, and while not always having the best material. It can be said that he has always done a remarkable Job with what material he did have. Recognized as one of the finest mentors in the business. Pop Is a Haverford institution, an Inspiration to his proteges, and a builder of character as well as athletic prowess. Haverford lost but one meet last year, and that was by three points to the Middle Atlantic championship team from St. Joseph ' s. This year there are three home meets: UrsInu5,Swarthmore, and P.M.C.-Drexel, while the squad goes afield for the Lehigh and Gettysburg affrays. With St. Joe missing from the schedule the possibility for an undefeated season does not seem too remote. 1950 Tracli Highlights Relay Team Wins in Penn Relays Victory Over Swarthmore, 67-59 Front Row: Pop Haddleton.

But despite these adverse conditions there was a feeling on campus that the baseball season was right around the corner. There was one sure sign of this In the Coop recently. There the brothers Betson were embroiled to the point of fisticuffs over the 1 949 batting average of one Herman Duffenheimer, a pitcher with Greensboro ugh In the Class C. Piedmont League. Yes, the baseball season Is nearly upon us, and the day student ' s dally kaffeeklatch is gently turning to thoughts of spring — training. Baseball at Haverford has had its ups and downs In the past few years, and there Is no room here for crystal ball gazing. Only time will tell what 1950 holds in store for Roy Randall ' s diamond hopefuls. And the telling can be left to future scribes. The Scarlet had a mediocre over-all record in 1949, but won the games that really counted. For despite a 5-8 season total, the Fords finished second to Delaware in the Middle Atlantic League. Southern Division, boasting a 4-3 record In league competition. The 1950 season will begin, as usual, with a swing south of the border (the Mason-DIxon line) during the spring vacation. Although this jaunt usually provides few victories for Haverford, it does give the Northerners a chance to limber up frozen fibulas against teams that have already been basking in summer warmth for months. The University of Virginia. Randolph-Macon, and Uncle Sam ' s Quantico Marine base are listed on the southern Itinerary. Returning to college, the baseball team faces a schedule that stretches from St. Joes to Delaware, a long stretch In anyone ' s language. This year the Ford team is led by James Wood, as colorful a character as ever toed the first sack. A varsity letterman for three years, Jim Is one of those spark plug performers that Is so rare In these days of automatic competition. There will be many times this season when we ' ll see Captain Wood racing around the bags minus his cap, which has flown off half way to first, because Jim Is a hitter (1949 average .285). He will provide the punch the team needs. no Mar. 27 Quan+ico Away Mar. 28 U. of Virginia Away Mar. 29 Norfolk Navy Away Mar. 30 Randolph-Macon Away Apr. 5 Drexel Away Apr. 8 King ' s College Home Apr. 12 Temple Away Apr. 15 Phila.

Only four other Seniors will grace the diamond squad this year; Phil Maroney, the boy who broke up the Drexel game last year, Karl Manwiller, a fine fielder, Andy Lucine, a valuable pinch- hitter, and relief hurler Ned Red Snader, who had a 0-1 record in 1949. In the supporting cast there are a trio of Juniors: Bud Garrison, Bill Boteler, and Bucky Harris, and Soph representatives Don Broadbelt, Ted Hibberd, Frank Keetz, Don Chandler, Craig Heberton, and Charlie Wurster. There will undoubtedly be some excellent Frosh candidates too, but at this writing nothing definite is known of them. They are the unknown quantity, x, in Randall ' s combination. Of the non-Seniors mentioned Bud Garrison, Ted Hibberd, and Don Chandler are standouts. Garrison is one of the classiest shortstops to frisk on a Ford diamond for a long time, and though he hit but .212 last year, he ' s dangerous at the dish. Chandler, who gives spectators heart failure with his fielding manners, swatted the ball at a .313 clip to lead the team in batting last year. He ' s big and strong and, like good whiskey, should improve with age. Ted Hibberd had a 2-3 pitching record in ' 49 but should develop into a winning pitcher this season. Pitching will be a problem. Just how long good old Craig (3-2) Heberton ' s left wing will hold out is an enigma. Hibberd and Charlie (0-2) Wurster, along with work-horse Heberton, will carry the load again in 1950. That is, unless Roy Randall can cull some mound talent from the Fresilman class, a strong possibility. So it ' s off to the baseball wars for Haverford ' s diamond devotees. A winning season will depend on improved play all around, but the potential seems to be there. To actualize this potential will be the iob of Messrs. Randall and Dochorty.

It is the only sport in which: the ball used Is harder than a baseball, the opponents are applauded when they arrive on the field of battle, and afternoon tea Is served at 4:00 P.M. It is also Haverford ' s oldest athletic activity, dating back to the year 1838. Although enthusiasm has declined somewhat since the days when an XI (never an eleven ) from dear old hlaverford toured Merrie England, there is still a great deal of Interest here In this traditional English game. Haverford and Ur sinus are the only colleges left In the Intercollegiate Cricket League. So each year they fight to the death on the greensward for the gleaming cup, symbolic of national cricket supremacy. Haverford has retained posession for a number of years now. and it is likely that the huge trophy will grow old at Haverford. Coach Howard Comfort ' s team will have fo rely a great deal this year on the bowling and batting of John Hobart, the only three letter man left on the squad. The Brown lees, Ed Cornell, and Mai Lash, the backbone of the 1949 team are gone. Horatio Wood, Gordle Baldwin, and Hobart are the only Seniors on the squad. The rest of the team will have to be made up of first and second year men. Cricket is not a spectator sport unless one is aesthetically Interested. If so, the sight of colorful scarlet and black blazers and caps, white pants, and black and blue hands against a background of Cope green would send a thrill through the sensitive soul. But for those who participate the game Is well taken. The Scarlet and Black, with a 3-7 record In 1949, will again play teams from the General Electric, Fairmount, Antilles, and Brooklyn Cricket Clubs as well as Howard and Lincoln Universities, Urslnus, and the Alumni.

Under the Com- modoreshlp of John Dodge, the sea-going Fords have four regattas at Annapolis and one at the New York Maritime Academy coming up. The Middle Atlantic Championships will be held at Annapolis on May 6-7, following an elimination regatta April 22-23. Meets with Navy and George Washington are also on the spring slate. 1 949, the second season of fall racing for the Fords, saw the sailors journey to Kings Point one week-end, sit that one out because of fog. and then try again the next Saturday. This time they were becalmed. At least there are no races at Kings Point this spring. Following the becalming at Kings Point on Saturday the tars moved on down Long Island to Webb on Sunday and finally got In some sailing. However, they had to operate In unfamiliar Comets and could do no better than a third against Webb and Lafayette. The Club owns four eleven foot Penguins in which they practice, but all racing proper is done in boats owned by host schools such as Stevens. Navy, and George Washington. Most of these boats are of the Tempest class. Since Haver- ford ' s boats are no great shakes, the Nautical Club Is still hoping for some dough with which to buy better scows, because interest in the club Is Increasing every year. Beside Dodge. Vice-Com- modore Jim Brown, and skippers Bruce Mac- intosh, Tom Woodward, and Dusty Fife, no less than eight Freshmen are going to crew and pos- sibly skipper In regattas this spring. 9olf Way back in February while the snow was on the ground and cold winds were howling. Captain Bill Rhoads sent out a call for all nnen interested in golf this spring. When the meeting was over and Bill had taken stock of the situation he found himself In the favor- able position of having five returning lettermen and a flock of promising newcomers. The lettermen returning to compete were Capt. Rhoads, a monogram winner for three years, and other seniors Jack Holcombe, Runcle Tatnall, and Bill Miller, and sophomore Paul Sterner. The new men were junior Dick Huffman, sophomore Al Adams, and freshmen Dave O ' Neall, Bill WIghtman, Bob Logan, and Art Leibold. The season outlook Is quite bright, but there are several ifs to straighten out before any real forecast can be made. Steps will have to be taken to make sure that Bill Rhoads brings his clubs to all the matches; he left them at the U. of Virginia last spring. Jack Holcombe will have a matchless alibi if he finds that things aren ' t going too well; after all, he just bought a new set of Irons. BIN Miller Is going to do his best to brush up on the three and four foot putts. He and Sammy Snead seem to have a lot In common when It comes to the short ones. Runcle Tatnall will be working hard to get those short Irons sticking close to the pin, and Paul Sterner Is going to do his best to straighten out his hook. Rhoads Is hoping that from the new men one or two good golfers can be developed. Last year marked the first season that the Ford golfers had Invaded the Southland. There they lost three matches to the year-round golfers of Quantico Marine Base, Uni- versity of Virginia, and the University of North Carolina which was led by NCAA champion Harvie Ward. However this experience put the Fords a long way ahead of their regular season rivals and enabled them to enjoy a relatively successful season. 5-6-2, which numbered successes over Drexel, Moravian, Ursinus, St. Joseph ' s, and a trouncing of Swarthmore, 8- 1 .

Bill Rhoads, Tatnall. 113 tennis For some years now tennis has been one sport that Haver- ford can count on for a winning season. Ford court squads have for three successive years copped the Middle Atlantic States championship, winning in 1 949 with a 5-0 record in league competition. The season record, compiled against some of the best local and Eastern teams, was 10-3. Only losses to Princeton, Davidson, and Yale marred the situation. It ' s interesting to note that in those ten victories opposing teams won a total of only four matches. The Scarlet put six shut-outs and four 8-1 matches tn the victory bag during the season. Prognostication, a large and dangerous word, might be indulged In at this point, according to all rules, but more than a fairly safe promise for a winning season, little is going to be said here. The tennis season does not officially open until April, but during the so-called vacation, at the end of March, the net- men will journey down to the land of you-all to take a whack at some really fine Southern tennis teams. The Uni- versity of North Carolina and the University of Virginia are never known for their weak racquet wlelders, and fortified by lots of sunshine and mountain lightning, a traditional southern beverage we are told, these demons of the court usually hand our winter-pallld court pesters a good trimming. But the experience of playing In the torrid zone seems fo be worth the lickings, as it pays off in victories later In the Happily enough. Coach Norm Bramall still has the nucleus of last year ' s championship team with him this year. Although Tom Crollus has gone the way of all flesh (gradu- ated), such stalwarts as G. DIehl Mateer (also something of a squash player), the Betson boys, Dick and Bob, Jim Foster. Hank Stern, and John Thomas will return to the net wars this season. There ' s a team for you right there. But some of these men are going to find competition tough from such 1949 Jayvees as Ed Bellinger, Dick Eberly, Bill Vogel, and Drew Deacon. These men made up the basis of a strong J.V. last year, and knock-down, drag-out (If you ' ll excuse the cliche) fights can be expected for the lower positions on the varsity team. On the schedule this year, besides the always rugged Southern outfits, are such tough competition as Delaware. Temple, Rutgers, Penn, and Princeton, not to mention Swarth- more, the tail-enders of any really complete Haverford athletic schedule. With Davidson and Yale passed up this year by Scarlet athletic planners, only Princeton, of the teams victorious over Haverford In 1949, remains. So when the skies begin to clear a little and the mud has disappeared from the tennis bogs (rather courts), it ' s within the realm of possibility that Haverford College could have an undefeated season and retain their Middle Atlantic championship for the fourth straig ht year. 114 Back Row: Manager Tom Stevens, Eberly, Deacon, Foster, Capt.

Dodge. varsity club Any sludent who has won his varsity letter in athletic competition is automatically eligible to become a member of the Varsity Club, and there are usually about one hundred active members. Every year, at the end of the football season, the Varsity Club is especially in the spotlight, when it organizes the festivities for the Swarthmore. or Varsity Club. Weekend. Last fall the excitement started Friday afternoon, when the Ford soccer team dropped a close game to Swarth- more. That evening spirits were high again, however. The bonfire was a success, In spite of Swarthmore efforts to set it off too early. From the bonfire, the crowd made its way up to the gym for several hours of square dancing. At the football game the next day, things looked blacic during the first half, with Swarthmore leading 14-0. For a while in the second half, it looked as If Haverford might pull out a victory, but a blocked extra-point kick left us on the short end of a 14-13 score. But it was impossible to dampen for long the enthusiasm of the weekend, and the dance that evening more than made up for the disappointment of the afternoon. The next morning at ten-thirty breakfast was served In the common room for those who were still up. or were able to get up. Another function of the Varsity Club, and one closer to the real purpose for which the club is formed, is the organization and supervision of the annual Haverford Sub-freshman Day. The Club ' s main purpose is to foster spirit and good sportsmanship, and to aid in the development of Haverford athletics. In view of this purpose, each fall the Club tries to find and attract to Haverford young students and athletes of outstanding ability. A special day is set aside, and the most promising school and prep school boys are invited to come to Haverford to meet the students, talk with the faculty, and see the campus. The process is usually repeated In the springtime, too, on a smaller scale. The Alumni Varsity Club, organized last year, has come into its own, and has been a big help in many ways, especially in the Sub-freshman Day activities. 115 THE STAFF OF THE 1950 RECORD Wishes to Acknowledge With Deep Appreciation The Generous Help of Our Patrons Mr. Herbert Blum Mr. Andrew Boyd Mr. Leon P.
