ECHO Copy right 1042 W. William Tornow, Editor-in-Chief Dwight S. Palmer, Business Manager THE SENECA F 19 4 3 Presented by The Junior Class of Hobart College Geneva,New York 113513 m DEDICATION Because he is so generous with all things, especially with his very valuable time; because he is gentle; because he has so admirably filled the difficult role of acting president and at the same time headed one of the finest departments of chemistry in any American college; because he is a ”regular feller;” we, the class of nineteen-forty-three, humbly dedicate this book to John Ernest Lansing. His words of encouragement in all troubled times, his reverence for high ideals, and his intelligent guidance throughout the past distressing months have endeared him to the heart of every student. He is a friend in all deeds. [4] FOREWORD THE CLASS OF 1943 presents its edition of the Echo of the Seneca with the sincere wish that all members of the present college com- munity may henceforth enjoy the fond memories of Hobart College and the city of Geneva which the pictures and written word herein contained shall call forth. Virtually all associations made in college days are among our most important in later life. The friends we have made will continue to be our best friends, if our wishes come true. That these friends may never be forgotten, the pres- ent Junior Class and the Yearbook Staff give you, fellow students and teachers, this treasure chest for remembrance. [5] THEME Generations of native Western New Yorkers have told tales concerning the strange sounds that issue forth on those certain nights “when conditions are right from the depths of Lake Seneca and Lake Cayuga. Science has so far failed to explain the true source of the emanations. From an old Seneca Indian legend comes the story that the sound is an echo of tribal drums—an echo which has refused to die away and let the glorious history of the Seneca tribe be forgotten. This is the tale whence came the name “Echo of the Seneca” for the first publication of the college's yearbook and is the most well-known one. But there are other weird stories, and interesting stories, too, that would tell about the source of the echo. These are brought together in this work to introduce the several sections of college activities into which the book has been divided. We are indebted for many of the anecdotes to the late Mr. G. M. B. Haw- ley, to the play “Lake Guns of Seneca and Cayuga by Cornell’s Professor A. M. Drummond, and even more especially to the native elders who are still wont to listen for THE ECHO OF THE SENECA. [6] ACTIVITIES MENTAL 17] [9] Long ago in the days of the Indian legend, a great two-headed serpent lay coiled around Bare Hill. Before its death, effected by a surviving Seneca, the monster had swallowed all of the tribe; but when it died it spewed forth, liv- ing, all the Indians that it had once swallowed. This tribe, formerly a part of the wise and crafty serpent, became endowed with a part of the intelligence represented by and inherent in the huge snake. Strangely enough, an analogy may be clearly indicated between college life and legend. Consider for a moment our engulfment in a selected group of wise, intelligent men, well- schooled in all fields, and our subsequent release after four years of acquisition of knowledge and development of mind intended to make us more cognizant of Truth. It becomes evident that a decided similarity exists, one a feature of imagination and the other strict realism. Through the sanction of their own and divine intelligence, the Senecas killed the giant bloodsucker which spanned New York State, fought their enemies more skilfully and became more powerful. As these added powers, possessed by them alone, are repre- sented by legend, so are our endowments resulting from intellectual activity and its ramifications soon to be evinced in a like manner. L10] THE PRESIDENT Although his presence on the campus was greatly missed during the past year, William Alfred Eddy has been continually with us in spirit. His frequent cables and pleasant letters have given us the feeling that he still has a genuine interest in the college family, and have also revealed to us a more personal picture of life on the other side of the world. While Dr. Eddy has been working for the perpetuation of the democratic system abroad, Dr. John Ernest Lansing, acting president, has been doing a fine piece of work in keeping an institution vital to that democratic system, the American Col- lege, running smoothly and efficiently here at Hobart and William Smith.

Office: 50 Seneca Street [14] THE DEAN To interview prospective students, to act as a disciplinarian in the enforcement of college rules, to give sound advice and other aid to all Hobart men—these are a few of the duties of the dean. In carrying out these duties Walter Hetherington Durfee has been both wise and just. With the majority of the nation’s youth going into some branch of the fighting services, it becomes increasingly difficult to find and keep fine men of college material for Hobart. And so another problem for the dean is to maintain the high standards for which our college is noted. Dr. Durfee has done this part of his job very well indeed, and we heartily commend him for it.

All has been written, though in a somewhat personal manner, more in the spirit of fun. We know that no offence will be taken in any case, since no spurious remarks were consciously made.

Little Theater 1, 2, 3, 4 [M] ACTIVITIES PHYSICAL [59] [60] r 6i i The story of a British army officer who deserted to wed the daughter of a staunch continental soldier is often told in this region. Following his capture by the British, he was executed for desertion. It is said that the mysterious drums of Lake Seneca and Lake Cayuga are the drums which bear his death march. In the execution is represented the passage of the active physical being. But the end is merely the implication of preceding events. As the coffin symbolizes in a particular way the predestined goal of the physical, so do other symbols denote in a general way our progress in the development of the body. Our athletic achievements express physical or bodily progress despite the fact that such progress is relative, or, at most, destined to diminish eventually. Here at Hobart we enter into ma|or and minor sports, or take part in Intramural contests; we also execute army drills and exercises in the gym- nasium. We are building our bodies to better fit ourselves for life. We do not desert as did the British army officer in the story. Though the end is the same for all men, we enjoy life to a fuller extent through bodily development in sports. [62] Football The loss of 9 lettermen including that triple- threat avalanche, Clare Popalisky, and the under- standable inexperience of the sophomores called upon to fill key positions, all served to pave the way for the varsity's most disastrous football season in some time. However, the record of one win and six defeats is deceiving in as much as 3 of the losses could just as easily have been in the win column except for lucky breaks which went the wrong way for the Statesmen. Only the Trinity game was an utter rout. The loss of lacco O’Shea at midseason to Uncle Sam's armed forces was another hard blow to be considered. The season saw the Big Orange's victory jinx over Rochester broken when, as throughout theyear, theoffense fail- ed to match the defense and both fell far short of the team's great fighting spirit. Roy Weber proved to be an outstanding field leader. Bud Palmer and Bill Stiles, perhaps the squad’s two best linemen, were elected to captain next year's team; a better record can be expected if the present war emergency does not claim too many of the gridders. COACH EMERALD BEERS WILSON Even while experiencing his first losing football season of his entire coaching career and watching Rochester's first win over Hobart since he assumed the coaching reins at Geneva, Speedo retained all his praiseworthy qualities and further endeared himself to every man on his squad by the way he stuck by them even when they failed to fulfill his expectations in their play. He is a great coach and an even greater man. 1941 SCHEDULE Hobart 13 Union 0 Hobart 12 Hamilton 27 Hobart 7 Trinity 25 Hobart 0 W. tk J. 7 Hobart 0 C.C.N.Y. 6 Hobart 7 Buffalo 12 Hobart 7 Rochester 19 [63] HOBART 13—UNION 0 Under a sweltering hot sun the season’s opener saw the Statesmen revenge last year’s defeat at the hands of Union with a decisive victory at Schenectady. While the whole team played excellent ball for so early in the year it was Jack O’Shea to whom most of the credit must go. He passed to Bob Burns for the first touchdown and personally ac- counted for the other one with a 26 yard gallop. He amassed 196 of the 211 yards Hobart gained. The orange defense held every time the chips were down. HAMILTON 27 HOBART 12 Sparked by a brilliant passing attack which saw O'Shea tossing the pigskin and Capt. Weber and Burns doing most of the receiving, Hobart dominated the first 3 quarters of their duel with Hamil- ton. However, in the final period the orange defense fell apart and the sensational Milt Jannone and Co. pushed across 20 points in a very impressive fashion, thus spoiling the big celebration hon- oring the Statesmen's 50th anni- versary of football. Bobby Rogers and O’Shea accounted for the home team’s touchdowns. LEFT: Speedy kneeling in the center, talks it over with bis let termen of last season. In hack, left to right, are Burns, Palmer, and Stiles; in front, Fitch, Captain Weber, Carter, and Rogers. TRINITY 25—HOBART 7 Exhibiting the worst brand of ball played by any Hobart team for some years past, the Geneva lads were no match for a powerful Trinity squad who blocked expertly and shook their fleet backs loose for touchdown jaunts of 75, 41, 4 and 56 yards res- pectively. A last period score by Fitch was the most that could be salvaged from this nightmare. W. J. 7—HOBART 0 Coaches Wilson and Ream, disappointed keenly by the team’s poor showing, made some shifts in the lineup and marked improvement was noted in this contest. The defensive play was of high caliber; but the departure of O’Shea slowed up the offense, which bogged down at crucial moments. While outplaying their opponents all the way, Hobart fell victim of a bad break in the form of a poor punt which set up the game’s only touchdown in the last quarter.

Y. 6—HOBART 0 Playing on an unbelievably mud-drenched field in Lewisohn Sta- dium, the Statesmen were forced to discard their usual wideopen brand of attack, and, as a result, never could get going. The field was also utterly devoid of grass and well-littered with pebbles, nails, and similar debris. The New York boys capitalized on a blocked punt in the first few minutes of play to push across the only score and the rest of the battle settled down to a kicking duel wfith Vic Maitland's toe keeping Hobart from any further danger. After being outfought the en- tire first half, giving up a touch- down along the way, Hobart came back via a Fitch-to-Knapp pass and a successful conversion by Dick Morris to lead the Bulls 7-6. Two very courageous goal line stands by the Orange lifted their hopes high, but a long, wobbly Buffalo pass with three minutes to go was luckily com- pleted for the winning points. The Statesmen returned with a wide-open passing attack which carried the ball to the 2-yard line. Here the game ended before Ho- bart could score what seemed an inevitable touchdown.

ROCHESTER 19—HOBART 7 The season ended before a capacity crowd at Rochester which saw the first Yellowjacket win over Hobart in seven years. Bruckel, the U. of R. star, returned the opening kickoff for a touchdown, and a long pass scored for them again before the half ended. In the last period a Kimball-to-Fitch pass for a touchdown gave the Geneva rooters a chance to cheer; but the Roch steamroller pushed across the clincher in the fading mo- ments of the game. However, there was no shame to this de- feat; for, though they were out- played and outmanned, the boys in orange were never outfought. They lived up to the old, never- say-die tradition of Hobart teams and warmed the hearts of the entire student body. i 1942 Co-captains Palmer ( ? ) and Stiles ABOVE: Captain Weber leads the pack for a warm-up jaunt on the first day of practice. SUMMARY OF THE SEASON After reading through the foregoing account of Hobart’s first unsuccessful season in many years, one perhaps is afflicted with a feeling of despair for the future hopes of the team. To those not so well acquainted with the college it should be pointed our that Hobart’s enroll- ment is around three hundred, ninety of whom are Freshmen; with the armed forces calling many into active service here as everywhere, few have been left to make up a squad. To those who know Hobart, we suggest: We did it before, and we can do it again!” And in spite of size!

Coach Emerald B. (Speed) Wilson still managed to turn out a fairly smooth and efficient ball club which captured 5 of its 11 games for what proved to be not too bad a season. There was a keen battle for regular berths all year as Speed endeavored to find the group that would work best together from his ten almost equally talented men. The Sophomores really dominated the quint, however, with one of their number, Lou Konefal being regarded as one of the best defensive and offensive threats to wear a Hobart uniform in re- cent years. Bill Mack, also a member of the class of ’44, led the team in scoring over the course of the season while Co-captains Cotton Weber {above)) atui Herb Fitch [70] LEFT: Captain-elect Bob Bams BELOW : Bill Mack and a Colgate eager jump while Lou Konefal and Dick Kim- ball await the result. Popular side-sport of Echo readers in the pa it has been to see if the y can find them- selves in the background in action shots such as these. We suggest trying it with this picture and even more so with some of those that follow. Dick Kimball and Chuck Keene flashed good form in several games. Co-Captains Herb Fitch and Roy Weber saw their share of action but were side- tracked by the sophs part of the time. Captain-elect Bob Burns, junior guard, and his classmate Burt Knapp, a find at center, teamed with Konefal, Mack and Kimball for what was probably Ho- bart's most effective combination, while veterans Ed Burke and Bob Yates also made their presence felt, especially when the going was toughest. [71] With but one short week of practice under their belts the Statesmen opened their season with a 2 game trip which first saw them come from behind to beat Albany State Teachers in a thrilling contest ending with a 45 41 count. Sophomore Chuck Keene led the attack with 14 counters with Mack and Kone- fal aiding greatly. However, the following night the travel-weary squad ran into a hot R. P. I. club and encountered for the first time the new fan-shaped backboards and molded balls, and this combination spelled a 41-30 defeat. The whole team, with no exception, exhibited a sloppy brand of ball. Coach Wilson then drilled his boys hard, and they showed to their best advantage in their next battle against Alfred. The squad, by exhibiting their best passwork of the season, knocked ofF the favored Alfred boys 42 31 with Bill Mack’s 15 points showing the way. Yates and Fitch made the offense click with their heads-up passes. Then came a very exciting duel with Union College. Trailing 41 35 with a minute and a half to go and defeat seemingly inevitable, the Statesmen suddenly rallied to tie up the game with a trio of quick baskets by Burns, Burke and Keene, the last coming with but BACK ROW: Stert%er, Hopper, Konefal, Huse, Beswick.

While the gym rocked with noise, Hobart then went on to an overtime victory on another beautiful basket by Keene. Oberlin made the season’s first appearance before the home crowd a sorry one, however, by administer- ing a disastrous 53 36 licking. Lou Konefal was Hobart’s shining light while Cotton” Weber stood out on the defense. The next evening, although they jumped to an early lead, the Statesmen soon found the Palestra floor and a very capable Rochester team too much for them, and suffered another 18 point loss. Keene tossed in 14 points and Bob Burns dropped in 4 beautiful set shots to help the home cause. Back home again on the Williams court the dis- heartened Geneva aggregation was handed its third straight setback at the hands of a fast Hamilton quintet. This game saw Dick Kimball sparking the team with 9 markers. The Wilsonians regained their winning ways finally, blasting Buffalo to cover with a 51 36 run- away. Lou Konefal and Bill Mack were both red-hot with 17 and 15 points respectively. A new discovery, Burt Knapp, also came into the limelight for the first time. Then in one of the most thrilling games ever wit- nessed in Williams Hall the squad went down to a heart-breaking defeat to a taller and more experienced Colgate five. The game took two overtime periods to decide and the gym was a madhouse throughout the [73] entire last half as first one team and then the other held the advantage. Kimball, Mack, Burns, and Knapp all hit double figures in scoring during this supreme effort of the team for an upset victory but the loss of Konefal early in the game via the 4-foul route was a hard blow to overcome. The rest of the season was anti-climactic. Rochester gave the Big Orange another severe beating again overcoming an early Hobart lead, but the year ended on a happy note with a repeat win over Buffalo. Co-Capt. Herb Fitch closed his career with a brilliant 12 point performance in this victory while Bob Yates and Keene starred on the defensive.

Kraus. He has a keen understanding of boys and a knack for developing expert stick- handlers from even the most inexperienced newcomers to the sport. Moving through life at his habitual snail's pace, Babe enriches the experience of all who come into contact with him. Co-captain Ed Hart Co-captain Co-captain-elect Dick Lyttle Bob Beinert [75] Although losing All Americans Ferris and Dobbin, the stick- men from Hobart still managed to turn in another creditable performance by winning five contests and losing only to the powerful Navy and Syracuse tens. The Geneva team had won nine in a row and 22 out of their last 24 games before bowing to Navy. Outstanding was Herby Fitch who was rewarded for his brilliant attack work by being chosen on the All-American ten. Bob Yates, in his first season of varsity play, was also little short of sensational. With Co-Capt. Hart handicapped with a leg injury, veterans Bender, Weber, and Welker took care of the midfield duties augmented by sophomores Rogers, Carter and Ruckcrt. Cal Clemens in the net was ably assisted by Co-Capt. Dick Lyttle, Bill Stiles and Beano” Beinert in forming a rock-ribbed defense which, on numerous occasions, took the spotlight away from the offense.

TUFTS Continuing on their winning ways the Statesmen next crushed a stubborn Tufts squad 91. The usually smooth attack was missing but the defense put up by Clemens, Lyttle, Stiles and Beinert was well-nigh impregnable. Fitch threw in 3 scores and supplemented them with 3 nice assists. Yates also had 3 goals. NAVY A journey to Annapolis saw the Big Orange victory streak of 9 straight snapped abruptly by a 17 4 defeat at the hands of a superior Navy team. A temperature of 89 degrees, a lack of ample substitutes and the abundance of Hobart penalties due to the different inter- pretation of checking rules in the South all played a major part in the loss. UNION Returning to their winning ways, the stickmen next handed Union College its first setback of the year by a lopsided score of 7 1. Again it was Fitch and Yates leading rhe attack while Cal Clemens played his usual steady game in the Hobart nets. Inset on opposite page: Pete Bender, '41, also mid-field and attack. CORNELL Before a large Spring Weekend crowd the season's most exciting game was turned into a Hobart victory on a brilliant long shot by Hank W'elker after a last period rally by the Ithacans had scored 3 goals and knotted the score at 8 8. Herb Fitch paced the Hobart attack with 2 goals and 4 assists while Yates and Whizzer White notched 3 tallies a piece. SYRACUSE Traveling to Syracuse the Geneva stickmen ran into a smart, well-drilled ball club which completely overpowered them 17-8 for their second setback. Nothing went right for our boys; Syracuse could do no wrong as they avenged their previous year's beating at Hobart's hands. PENN STATE On a wet and cold Boswell Field the squad ended the season in the approved fashion, romping over the lads from Fenn State 8 6, holding the lead throughout the entire encounter. Co-ordination was again the keynote of the game, as the team functioned like a single player. Co-Captains Lvttle and Hart along with Clemens, Welker, and Bender were the seniors playing their last game for the orange. [ 78 ] MINOR Bulletin Sterling, Demetrio , Scott, Burke, Frost Tennis 1941 Although not very successful in their matches, Hobart's tennis team celebrated a fairly good year. Many of the matches were much closer than the final score indicates, and showed Hobart to possess a fairly powerful club. The main point-getters were Rog Frost and Bill Sterling who by their consistent playing bolstered the team’s aggresiveness. Frost, Annis, Sterling, Bullen, Demetriou, Scott, and Burke held the club up in the singles; the doubles combinations found Annis and Scott, Sterling and Bullen, and Frost and Demetriou working together the major part of the time. The minor sports at Hobart are not of minor importance. Tennis, and the skiing group that ranks with it, are perhaps better means of self-expression than the three major sports.

Under Coaches Seymour Dunn and Clarence Klapper, the group participated in three meets. At Clarkson Tech against the Syracuse B-Team, Clarkson, and the St. Lawrence B-Tearn, the Hobart skiers placed second. Jack Hildreth took second and third places in the downhill and slalom respectively, and second in the combined slalom and downhill. Journeying to Hamilton College, Hobart nosed out the Clinton boys by a slight margin. Jack Hildreth again starred, taking a first in the slalom, a second in the downhill run, and another first in the combined downhill and slalom. Bill Geary and Ben Sanderson took first and second places in the cross country. In an open meet at Cato, N. Y. the Statesmen captured six out of thirteen possible prizes with Hildreth and Rappoport taking first and third places in the downhill contest, Hildreth first in the slalom, and Ben Sanderson, Ed Lansing, and Bill Geary taking first, second, and third places respectively in the cross country run. Next year's prospects look good, there being no seniors on the squad to graduate. Members on the varsity included Captain Jack Hildreth, Ben Sanderson, Seymour Rappoport, Bill Geary, Bob Brown, Ed Lansing, George Holton and Dave Sanderson. Stanley Rich, a senior who was this year's captain, was called to service in the United States Marine Corps before the season got underway. Coach Dunn, D. Sanderson, B.

Jim Newman's passing and Tommy (Barrel) Hart's power drives sparked the offense with the contest’s only score resulting on an end zone pass from the former to the latter. The hopes raised by this victory were severely shattered, however, when the Rochester Frosh playing in the mud and rain of Boswell Field easily outclassed the Hobart jayvees to the tune of 24 to 0. The junior Statesmen showed no offensive power whatsoever, and the defense was pierced for long yardage gains time and again; but they proved themselves game to the core, fighting down to the last minute in a manner befitting a Hobart squad. Newman and Hart were the stars of the outfit and Ralph Armstrong and “Red Miller filled out the backfield adequately, the former a strong kicker, and the latter an efficient blocker. Outstanding among the linemen were the ends Bill Christian and Ross Zornow, and center “Ace’’ Weaton. Rogers, Church, Koch and Mangivilano completed the first team lineup and all showed marked improvement as the season progressed. [82] Freshman Basketball Hobart 24 Cobblesville Aggies 68 Hobart 19 Manlius Academy 17 Hobart 35 Cook Academy 5 Hobart 32 R. B. I. 27 Hobart 31 Rochester 55 Hobart 46 Rochester 48 Opening a mediocre season which saw them splitting their six game schedule, the Frosh ran into a truly big-time ballclub and suffered a humiliating 68 24 beating. The Cobblesville boys, besides featuring a tight defense, passed, cut and scored to their heart’s content. Hobart then revenged this setback by trampling over a hapless Cook squad 35 5 with Hart and Chris- tian pacing the attack. Rochester's superior height and manpower next won out by a 55 31 margin; Ross Zornow gave a sterling performance, however, leading his teammates to a victory over Manlius in a nip and tuck battle to even the ledger again. Bill Christian’s 18 points and Coonerty’s two ’’clutch” baskets aided in a 32 27 win over an alert R. B. I. quintet. Then the Rochester Yellowjackets again downed the home team in a truly great ball game decided by a scant 2 points. Throughout the year Ross Zornow, a polished floor-worker, and Christian, the leading point gatherer, were standouts; they received able support from Tommy Hart, Jim Newman and Coonerty, and Jonnes, Cipriano, Elvvell and VanGelderen filled in capably when they were needed.

Freshman Lacrosse Hobart 11 Govv School 2 Hobart 2 Syracuse 3 Hobart 8 Cornell 7 Hobart 15 Gow School 4 Hobart 16 Brighton 3 Coach “Tookie” Cole in his first full season as Freshman lacrosse coach unleashed an extremely powerful aggregation against his opponents; he had the satisfaction of seeing his squad end up with the highly impressive record of 4 wins and but a single loss. Starting at high speed the Little Orange trampled under Gow School by an 11 2 count in a game played during a thunderstorm. Jack “Dum-Dum Van Ingen starred, leading the attack with 5 brilliant goals while Norm Lish was superb in the nets. The next encounter was a thriller which saw the frosh stickmen coming from behind to |ust nip the Cornell yearlings 8 7, with Van Ingen and Eric Windmuller tossing in the key scores. Following this Brighton High School was easily conquered with Hobart’s substitutes playing half the game. After a tough loss to Syracuse, another victory over Gow School closed the successful season. Van Ingen, Windmuller, Hatsell, Luce, Stertzer, Davis, Mack and the colorful duo of Williamson and Lish were the Frosh’s outstanding performers. Most of their numbers should prove to be fine varsity material. ( 84 J STANDING: Walsh, Hock, Kuhl, Bert mo, Noe. SEATED: Lansing, Brokaw, Meade, Bentley. Intramural Board To the members of the Intramural Board goes the job of arranging schedules for about fifteen activities and then officiating at their occurrence. In addition, the managers have to organize and handle the different squads in their respective social groups. The popularity of the intramural program is easily evident. Over 90 per cent of all students take part in at least one of these activities—some in as many as ten or twelve. Large enthusias- tic crowds gather to watch the playoffs in each event. At the end of the year a “Blessing Trophy” is given to the social group having the highest number of points, based mainly on percent of participation, gained during the year from the intramurals.

Previously Frost had defeated Ed Burke in the semi-finals in a very close match, while Van Deusen won the counting sets from Charley Scott. Burke and Bud Church teamed together to win the doubles tournament. FOOTBALL Sigma Phi won the annual touch football playoffs for the second year in succession by defeating the Neutral B team 14 to 7- For the Sigs, who have not lost a game of touch in two years, Don Lennox and Bill Nollman seemed to be the triple threat men; Ed Burke, Bob Beinert, Jack Palmer and Buzz Shaw were also standout players. VOLLEYBALL Captained by Don Lennox and Jack Palmer, Sigma Phi annexed the volleyball cup handily by a 2 1 win over Kappa Sigma in the championship march. With a front line combination of Ed Burke, Lew Hinman, and Hobe Tallmadge, all over six feet tall, the Sigs proved hard to beat. Last year the Sigs won with a victory over the Phi Phi's. BASKETBALL Phi Phi Delta won the annual basketball tournament with Bob Rogers and Johnny Hopper playing really excellent ball. Previous to the final match, both Phi Phi and the faculty teams had been unbeaten. Having won the contest last year with great teamwork, the Phi Phi's surpassed their performance of 1941 in defeating a faculty team packed with such sure-bucket men as Babe Kraus and Charley Ream. BOWLING With a decisive win over the previously unbeaten Kaps, Sigma Phi's keglers won the bowling cup this March. Paced by Johnny McReynolds who had the season's high individual single score of 229, the Sig aggregation lost only two out of thirteen matches. Dick Kimball of Phi Phi Delta possesses the highest individual average for the year. [86] A L S P O R FREE THROW Individual honors for the highest number of good foul shots out of twenty-five went to Bobby Rogers of Phi Phi Delta this year. The Phi Phi's also won the group competition in the free throw when the totals were added up. This was the second successive year for the local boys in capturing this trophy. SINGING The sixth annual Inter-fraternity Sing found the Sigma Chi group again the winner out of eight competing bodies. The Frank Warren Trophy, presented by Kappa Alpha last year, went to Sigma Chi by virtue of the fraternity's highest points in diction, phrasing, pa -i- cipation, pitch, ami especially enthusiasm. This is the third r'- the six year history that the Sig Chi's have been victor BOXING With its third straight victory in the golden gloves Sigma Chi keeps the boxing trophy for good. Champion the several classes were Gerry Harrington, Ken Dunhan Ingen, Bud Walsh, Andy Stertzer, Swede Gronwall, and land. Sigma Chi also showed greatest percentage of partici the bouts, entering a man in practically every weight group TRACK Sigma Phi successfully outpointed the other college groups to wi. the track meet again last spring as it had done the year before. George Ashmun starred for the Sigs, winning the hundred-yard dash and the 440 with much ease. Don Lennox and Bill Nollman finished second and third in the hundred. Bill Tornow won the 220 and placed second in the half mile, and Lennox won the running broad jump. The relay team consisting of Ashmun, Lennox, Nollman, and Tornow placed first also. BASEBALL The Neutral B team won last’s spring's intramural softball championship after losing it the year before in a close battle with Kappa Sigma. The tables were turned in 1941, however, and the neutrals emerged victorious in another fierce game with their old rivals. f 87 ] Wearers of the Roy Weber William Hatsell William Stiles David Carter Robert Williamson William Mack Andrew Stertzer Richard Morris Edward Burke William Geary John Hildreth H FOOTBALL Victor Maitland BASKETBALL ) CROSSE TENNIS Charles Scott SKIING Benjamin Sanderson [88] Dwight Palmer Norman Lish Robert Rogers Robert Burns Hallock Luce Richard Kimball David Davis Herbert Fitch Herbert Fitch Robert Yates Burton Knapp Lewis Konefal Charles Keene Gustave Ruckert Robert Rogers Herbert Fitch Robert Yates Roger Frost Edward Lansing Seymour Rappoport ACTIVITIES SOCIAL [� ] I 90] 9) A second interpretation of the Seneca drums is that the hare-drummer, Mad Willie , has beat his drums since early times from the highest hills and ridges in order that the sound spreading in all directions may rid him of the incessant frenzy of his diseased mind. The hands of Mad Willie , seeking a weird self-expression of the soul, likewise denote the directing of the normal individual's activities in social spheres that, in so doing, a proper adjustment of environmental and internal factors may be effected. As the mad drummer sought self-expression in eternal beating of the bass drum, so are we destined, in our social activity, to symbolize our own modes of self- expression. Then, too, if it were not for the social activities which furnish release from mental and physical afflictions in normal channels, so should we also be as mad as the old hare-drummer! Our social drums beat loud and well.

Sigma Phi is the oldest exist- ent Greek Letter society on the campus and the second oldest national fraternity (a member of the LInion Triad ). The Delta is well represented on the Varsity football, basketball and lacrosse teams -one of its members is co-captain of the lacrosse team, president of the Senior Class, member of Phi Beta Kappa, a Druid and a faculty scholar. Another member of the Delta is the editor of this edition of the Echo of the Seneca. The freshmen in the house are also active on the campus, being represented on the freshman football, basketball and lacrosse teams. The Business and Circulation managers of the Hobart Herald are Sigs. A number are Orange Key, Chimera, and Kappa Beta Phi members. The manager of basketball is also a Sig. In the spring of 1941, Sigma Phi won the track cup; and, in the 1941-42 season, football, volleyball and bowling trophies were captured. Sigma Phi is represented on the faculty by Dean Walter H. Durfee, Dr. Foster P. Boswell and Dr. A. D. Hubbs, all alumni of the college. OFFICERS President Jack G. Palmer Treasurer Henry M. Shaw Social Secretary W. William Tornow first semester William O.

The Hobart chapter was established in 1844 as an outgrowth of the Skin-and-Bones Society of Geneva College. K A topped the national fraternities in last winter's scholastic ratings and was active in many extra-curricular undertakings. With members out for most inter-collegiate sports, it appeared that the Kaps showed most of their athletic abilities on the skiing and tennis teams; both captains and several other members were represented by the Society. Kappa Alpha BETA OF NEW YORK Other prominent campus positions held by the Society include a Druid, president of the Outing Club, members of T. K. A. and Epsilon Pi Sigma, and posts on Herald and Echo staffs. In intramural sports, K A took top honors in the tennis tournament and ski meet. Kaps won their bowling league undefeated but then lost the cham- pionship play-off. Kap alumni include many well-known Geneva residents, and wdthin the college community, treas- urer H. O.

They provided basketball with a co-captain and lacrosse with eight prominent players. In intramurals the Thetes continued to be the tough nut to crack although their luck was not consistent. They finished well up in the Intramural football league and took second place in basketball. The Druids claim one Theta Delt.

The Alpha Alpha Chapter was started at Hobart in 1892. Of the more active members of the group, one is president of the Junior Class, co-captain elect of football, and business manager of this publication; another is manager-elect of basketball. The Sig Chi house also contributed five men to the varsity foot- ball team, two to basketball, and one to lacrosse. This year Sigma Chi won the Interhouse Sing for the second year in succession and claimed the boxing championship for the third consecutive season, hav- ing entered five men, two of whom were champs . The fraternity also received second place in last spring's track meet and second place in their baseball league. Outstanding move of the year on the part of fra- ternities during war time was the purchase of two $1000 defense bonds by this house. The Alpha Alpha Chapter celebrates its fiftieth anniversary during 1942. Alumni of Sigma Chi in the college community are Alumni Secretary Clifford Orr and Professor Lewis H. Niven.

The group has been offered several bids to become affiliated with national organizations, but both active members and alumni prefer to retain their present status. Of the thirty-five undergraduates, seven were on the football squad; five on the basketball varsity offered one of their group for captain-elect. One of the six Phi Phi's on last spring's lacrosse was a co-cap- tain. The present president of the house is also the firesh in an d i sc i pi i narian. Phi Phi Delta won the basketball trophy again this year in intramural competition, and also won the group and individual free-throw championship. The Blessing Trophy, awarded for outstanding participa- tion in intramural sports, was earned by this local society in the 1940 41 season. Mr. Joseph James Myler of Rochester, a member of the Board of Trustees, is one of the alumni of Phi Phi Delta active in college affairs. OFFICERS President W.

At Hobart the Delta Phi chapter was established March 2, 1935 when fifty-six members of Lambda Pi, a former local fraternity, were initiated into the new group. Kappa Sigma has been very active on campus. Representing the house on varsity teams were three men on the football squad, three in basketball in- cluding a co-captain, five in lacrosse including a co-captain, two boxing champions and the boxing manager. One member is president of Orange Key, another is on the All-American lacrosse team and is a Druid. Another is vice-president of the Junior class and two of the Freshmen are class officers. Intramur- ally the Kappa Sigs took second place in softball, football, volleyball, bowling, boxing, and in the Intrafraternity Sing. One member, lost last summer, was made a Druid by posthumous election. The thirty-three undergraduate members are sup- plemented by faculty members Odell, Bullard and Wilson.

It has maintained among its members a very high scholastic standing ever since its founding in 1923, and this year again earned the William Pitt Durfee Trophy for highest scholarship rank. The society was originally established by leading neutral men on the campus to answer a demand for such a fraternity made by the increasing number of unaffiliated students. One of the present Delta Psi's is the president of the national honorary romance language society, Phi Sigma Iota, and was editor of the 1941 H-Book. Two members sing with the Schola Cantorum.

Bantu, III, Chairman The class of 1943’s Junior Prom was a happy time for all. The music was furnished by Harlem’s Claude Hopkins and his ambas- sadors of college swing, with Williams Hall handsomely decorated with the South American theme prevailing. It was too late to have engravings made of the picture of this dance; last year’s scenes, however, should serve very well indeed to recall the atmosphere of an excellent Spring Weekend. Scenes from last year s prom: TOP: Jitterbug Otis ami others truck on down to Erskine Hawkin's Music. BOTTOM LEFT: Warren Williams pours out a few at intermission for Jameson and Frost and dates. BOTTOM RIGHT: Belden and Sherman talk it over; Roth and the Kents listen to a cadenza by Erskine. V [113] Finally, the story is told of the Senecas on Taughannock Point, where they were to meet for the last time their mortal enemies. Armed with a battery of cannon, but with inadequate knowledge of their use, the tribe prepared to make a last stand against the hostile forces. Believing that the recoil of the cannon might be neutralized by their own bodies the Indians neglected to properly support their armaments, and consequently all of them were hurled into the lake by the first volley. The cannon, so say the old ones, may still be heard this day as they burst forth from the bottom of the lake with their thunderous roars. In all life, the analogy here shown is evident. To properly direct one's actions requires that the correct preliminary steps be taken as a sound super- structure on which to rear the detailed actions which complete the motion toward the goal. The end of any activity is dependent, therefore, on clearly defined preliminary structural forms which shall determine quite decisively the ultimate value and success of the general direction of our expended energies. The importance of those things structural cannot be denied. [ 114 ] IN MEMORIUM Last Spring was shadowed by the untimely deaths of Sidney Clarence Newbury and William David Ripley, II. Both were Juniors; and each, besides being prominent in campus affairs, was president of his respective fraternity—Kappa Sigma and Kappa Alpha. All who knew Sid and Rip respected them and will never forget them. They have been and always will be missed. This section is dedicated to the memory of these two who were living symbols of the Hobart Spirit. [115] DRUIDS SENIOR HONORARY SOCIETY D R U Established at Hobart College on December 12, 1903, the Druid Society has been the most distinguished honorary society in the college. Its purposes are many-fold . . . . representing the leaders on the campus and exemplifying the high ideals for which Hobart stands. The Druid Society governs freshmen activities and takes the foreground in numerous other campus activities. The tapping of Druids takes place following chapel on Moving-Up Day each year. Last year the following were made members . Robert Lewis Beinert, Herbert Taylor Fitch, Roger Arthur Frost, Roy Albert Weber and Sidney Clarence Newbury (posthumously). Upon these men Hobart has bestowed the highest honor she can give. ROBERT LOUIS BEINERT Bob, sometimes known as Beano , Senior Class Presi- dent, faculty scholar, president of various honorary societies, co-captain of the 1942 lacrosse team and a stellar defense man on the team as well, is known and admired by all on the Hobart campus. He is a member of Chimera, active in intramural activities and a member of Sigma Phi Society. Among other of Bob's accomplish- ments is his election to Phi Beta Kappa in his Junior year. HERBERT TAYLOR FITCH Herbie , local boy made good, is an All-American lacrosse star and co-captain of the 1942 Varsity lacrosse team. One of the two 3-letter men of the class of 1942, Herb was twice president of his class, co-captain of the 1941 42 Varsity basketball team, a football player of note; a member of Chimera, too, and general all-around good fellow. Herb is a member of Kappa Sigma fra- ternity. [116 1 I D S ROGER ARTHUR FROST Rog , as he is affectionately known by his numerous friends and acquaintances on the Hobart campus, is captain of the 1942 tennis team, president of Kappa Alpha Society, editor of the 1941 edition of the Echo of the Seneca; he is also an outstanding debater and mem- ber of Chimera, a member of the editorial staff of the Hobart Herald, winner of the Hull Speaking Contest, and was the 1940-41 Secretary-Treasurer of Orange Key. SIDNEY CLARENCE NEWBURY Sid was one of those rare individuals who could study hard one minute, and then play a strong game of intramural football, basketball, or otherwise apply himself to social obligations the next. He was a member of Chimera, International Relations Club, Phi Sigma Iota, and a worthy debater as well. Sid was Secretary of Kappa Sigma fraternity in his second and third years and had been elected to head the house in 1941 42. An honor student, Sid was headed for membership in Phi Beta Kappa; his posthumous election to Druid is the second in the history of Hobart College. ROY ALBERT WEBER Cotton , Hobart's small, blond bombshell, has among various other achievements, those of co-captain of the 1942 Varsity basketball team, and captain of the 1941 Varsity football team. Also an outstanding lacrosse player and a member of Chimera, his membership is in Theta Delta Chi fraternity. Webbie is the other 3-letter man of the illustrious class of 1942 and is generally considered one of the hardest-hitting men in all athletic contests.

According to Greek mythology, Chimera was a monster combining the head of a lion, the body of a goat, and the tail of a dragon. Chimera, the Junior honorary society, in a somewhat analogous manner combines in one body the many features which make up life on this campus. Those members chosen have distinguished themselves in the several extra-curricular activities, the elections being made on Moving-Up Day from the Sophomores of the preceding year. PRESENT MEMBERS W.

Mainly Episcopal because of pre-theological study especially for this faith, men of all denominations reap the benefit of the fine counsel of such men as chaplain “Tookie Cole and other religious advisers. [ 122] ASSOCIATION The Hobart Christian Association is an inter-denominational organization of students which meets twice a month. It is open to any undergraduate for membership regardless of church affiliation. In September the association holds a traditional get-acquainted dance at which Hobart and William Smith freshmen have the first real chance to meet one another. It also presents the Mid-Winter Formal, one of the social highlights of the season. Many informal victrola dances have raised money to furnish equipment for the student body to be used at other entertainments. Members of the Christian Associa- tion have attended conferences and given reports on similar groups in other colleges in this district. Numerous study groups conducted by this organization have fostered closer relationships among students. C. A. CABINET BACK ROW: Creech, Cochran, Fuller, Hoibr it ter.

[124] THEATER With the arrival of Mr. Walden Boyle last September as the new head of the dramatics department, the Hobart Little Theater has had a fuller program than has been offered here for several years. Mr. Boyle hasn't limited himself to any particular type of production, with the result that the personnel of the Little Theater has had an opportunity to gain a well- rounded aspect of all types of shows. This school year there have been presented three one-act plays— Company House , Slope of a Hill , and The Hlingerers ; a full length tragic-comedy— Kind Lady by Chodorov; two presentations on a democratic theme— Fun to be Free” and Reaching for the Stars and Srtipes”; and Hodge Podge , a variety show. Last Spring the theater pre- sented Night Must Fall , a psychological mystery thriller by Emelyn Williams. The Little Theater has been aided greatly by the addition of wings and dressing rooms which were built into Coxe Hall last summer and during the year. It also has a new light control board and several other technical supplements that expedite production. All scenery and mechanical devices are made by the members of the Little Theater. In this way experience is not limited only to acting or stage handling. The members of the group discover every angle of play production, management, and performance. Scene from ' Night Must Fit .

[125] Phi Sigma lota The National Romance Language Honor Society of Phi Sigma Iota was founded at Alle- gheny College in 1922 and now consists of thirty-six chapters. Ils aims are to promote high scholarship and individual research in the field of Romance languages and literatures and to encourage friendship among the nations in this group. Only Juniors and Seniors who are doing advanced honor work in French, Spanish, or Italian are eligible for election, and their general scholastic standing must be high. Candi- dates are chosen upon recommendation of faculty members. Phi Sigma Iota’s colors are purple and white; its pin represents a five-pointed star, symboliz- ing the five chief Romance languages. Phi Eta, the chapter at Hobart and William Smith Colleges, was installed two years ago. Chester A. Markham, President OFFICERS President Chester A.

International Relations Club The purpose of the International Relations Club is to create on the campus an interest in world affairs from an unbiased viewpoint, and to prepare students for future leadership. Students interested in national and international affairs are pledged during the Moving-Up Day exercises. The programs revolve around various discussions of current importance, stu- dent forums, and lectures by various members of the faculty. Late in March representatives of the Hobart and William Smith International Relations Clubs met with those of other schools and universities from New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania at Bryn Mawr College for the Model Assembly of the League of Nations. At this, the sixteenth annual session, Hobart represented Sweden. It is hoped that the conclusions reached by such a group of college students may have some effect in settling the complex world problems of today. STANDING: Alderson, Stone, Davies, Hopper, J. D.

A widespread program has kept Hobart debaters continually on the run this year and has broadened the scope of forensic activities immensely. Even more than last year, the rapidly changing international scene and influx of new problems has supplied the debaters with a great variety of subjects to speak on. Besides the usual debates and roundtable discussions held for college meetings, it is well worth while to mention the trips and conferences attended by the team. The debate group broadcast a series of ten roundtable discussions during the second semester over Station WAGE, Syracuse, and attended the Annual New York State Debate Conference at Skidmore College. Home debates were had with Fordham, Penn State, University of Rochester, Colgate and Dayton University. The climax and triumph of the entire year came with the team's trip into Ohio. They defeated Case, John Carroll, and Western Reserve in Cleveland, Oberlin at Oberlin, but were outpointed by Canisius in Buffalo. However, at an intercollege tournament at Kent State College the group from Hobart took first place out of eleven schools and uni- versities. Under the able guidance of Coach John G. VanDeusen the society participated in numerous other public appearances.

Comiskv Next to the team during football season, the Hobart Band takes an easy second place as the best school-spirit stirrer-upper on campus. Hardly an afternoon goes by when one does not see some thirty-odd men marching up and down South Field practicing their stuff for the next Saturday afternoon. The band also has a place of honor on the stage at the annual Beat Rochester banquet; for the past several years it has been playing at occasional basketball games. In 1936 the organization was first established; since then the students have shown their enthusiasm by contributing a dollar apiece for its support. Now, in its seventh year, it has proven again a valuable asset in pepping up the old Hobart spirit. SCHOLA CANTORUM Conductor—Lewis Niven President—John Geene, Jr. Assistant Conductor and Accompanist— Secretary—Shirley Smith Harry Mark Horowitz Wardrobe—George Beckett, Phyllis Roberts The Schola Cantorum derives its name from the original Schola Cantorum (school of sing- ers), founded by Saint Sylvester during the Fourth Century for the performance of plainsong and liturgical music. The present Schola resulted from the realization of greater opportunities inherent in a more varied mixed-voice organization. Until September, 1940, Hobart maintained a glee club and [ DO] GANIZATIONS SCHOLA CANTORUM BACK ROW: Cary, Keith, Mott, Geene, Groff, O'Conner, Kan fuss, Chse, McCoy, Adair, Beckett, Ollis, Stone, Tornow, Young.

William Smich a choral club, combining bur once a year to present a joint program. Last year the clubs merged as an experiment, but at the same time continued to function independently, and all three gave separate concerts. The resultant effect of this unified group proved so pleas- ing that both clubs voted to discontinue their activities in favor of the permanent estab- lishment of the Schola Cantorum. This spring the Schola went on a three-day Holy Week tour through western New York and northern Pennsylvania. It performed in schools, churches, and made two radio broadcasts. The Schola Cantorum wears the royal purple of the Episcopacy through a special arrange- ment with the Right Reverend Bartel H. Reinheimer, Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Rochester, its official sponsor. SINFONIA Conductor—Harry Mark Horowitz Accompanist Marilyn Guenther Librarian—Wi 11 iam Struble The Sinfonia this year consisted of approximately twenty students from both Hobart and William Smith Colleges interested in working seriously through the year to produce a few recitals for the public. The principal aim of the members of the group is to play good music for enjoyment's sake. Although no credit is given for participation, the members’ enthusiasm is easily shown by the fact that, except for intermittent rehearsals together, they practice and learn their own parts individually in spare time. This spring, in a concert in Coxe Hall, the Sinfonia played Beethoven’s SixContredanses and two movements of the Dittersdorf Symphony in F Major. The orchestra also assists with inci- dental music at other functions of the college community.

LECERCLE FRANCA IS The French Club is composed of about twenty-five members from both Hobart and William Smith Colleges who meet to gain a practical and enjoyable insight into the French language and literature through informal discussion groups. On the club's calendar of activities this year were lectures in French by the University of Buffalo's Professor Arnavon; Mrs. Walden Boyle described her life in Bordeaux as an exchange teacher at another meeting of the group. The club had a Christmas party and sang old French songs under the direction of Dr. Mautner. Miss Margaret Bridges of William Smith is the president. DELTA PHI ALPHA Delta Phi Alpha is an honorary fraternity for students taking advanced German courses. It has about eighteen members this year and meets once a month. Highlight of the season was the presentation of a Christmas play written by Mrs. Rossi, previously presented in Vienna, Austria. There were also papers given by the various members of the club. Milan Barnes has been president throughout the year. THE MATH CLUB Brief talks on diderent phases of mathematics and the solving of complex problems have featured the meetings of the Mathematics Club this year. Dean Durfee and Dr. Hubbs opened their homes at various times for the informal gatherings. Several meetings were also held at diderent fraternity houses. Katherine Kirchner of William Smith presided during the past year. NEWMAN CLUB The Newman Club is an organization of Catholic students of secular and non-Catholic colleges and universities. The group was founded at Hobart in 1938 and is a member of the Newman Club Foundation. President Raymond Neill held meetings at St. Stephen's Church where Father Nolan served as Chaplain and adviser to the group. : 132 ] CLUBS PHILOSOPHY CLUB This group of students meets to discuss problems of philosophical interest. One of the note- worthy enigmas this year was the analyzation of the Declaration of Independence. Lectures are given by members of the faculty and meetings are held at the Sigma Phi Place and Corn- stock House. George Beckett has presided as president the past semester, filling the vacancy left by H. Hobart Tallmadge's induction into the Army. OUTING CLUB The Hobart and William Smith Outing Club, made up of about sixty members from both colleges, aims toward the enjoyment of all types of outing activities. The membership was the largest this year in the history of the organization and a well-planned program held participants' interest all through the school season. Representatives were sent in November to the Intercollegiate Outing Club Association at Cornell. This spring the group was host to the Outing Clubs of Cornell, Rochester and Syra- cuse at a weekend of skiing, skating and tobogganing at Bristol Hills. In addition to marsh- mallow roasts and campfires, the Outing Club held a Barn Dance, the proceeds of which went to the Ben Twiss Library Fund. Alfred Vail was the president throughout the school year. TAU LAPPA ALPHA Tau Kappa Alpha is a national honorary forensic organization which aims to search out and recognize public speaking talent among the students. The Intramural Debates, usually sponsored by T K A, were called off this year because of the low caliber of subject matter and the general lack of interest; but this situation, it is promised, will be remedied next year. The Hull Speaking Contest for extemporaneous speaking by the freshmen is also handled by this group. Marshmallow roast. Bob Morse leads unging. [133] O F ECHO WILLARD WILLIAM TORNOW Editor-in-Cbief The Echo or the Seneca has been an annual publication of Hobart College since it first appeared thirty-six years after the college was founded. It has appeared regularly each year except in three instances when, due to the low attendance, the issues were curtailed. Today the Echo of the Seneca is presented by the Junior Class as usual with but few changes. The funds for this book have been cut from $2715-00 two years ago and $2440 last year to twenty-two hundred dollars; naturally money had to be saved somewhere. This saving has come through the use of a few photographic plates which had been used previously in other college periodicals, and through the extended use of linoleum cuts made by the art editor to save the expense of large engravings in introducing the four main sections of the work. Literary Editor, J. Hilton Brown Sports Editor, Robert M. Bums [134] THE SENECA DWIGHT SEARSON PALMER Business Manager The value of any yearbook is mainly in che accurate memories it calls up several years after graduation. Therefore the Editor has felt justified in using pictures in a few places which might not be entirely new to all. It is sincerely believed that all material herein is worthy of the Echo of the Seneca. The theme of the book comes from the legends out of which sprang the name itself. This also has been used before; but never have so many interesting folktales been woven into the same whole. The beauty of these tales, and the beauty of the lake itself, have furnished no end of inspiration to the whole yearbook staff of tradition-wealthy Hobart College. Organisations Editor. Everani P.

As the college news organ for all students, the Herald at first appeared regularly each month of the school season; it became a weekly publication in 1913 and has re- mained such ever since. Valtner, J. G. [06] The Hobart Herald—Cont In ics sixty-third year of continuous publication, the Hobart Herald was to see another significant change in its status. This year the old agitation for a merger of the Hobart Herald with the William Smith news- paper reached a climax when the student bodies of both colleges approved the idea. Every student was given the opportunity to cast his vote; three-fourths of those casting votes favored the combination of the Herald and the Twig, W'illiam Smith bi-weekly publication. The merger accepted, a committee of student journalists and others from both colleges met with faculty advisers to arrange a tentative program for the new combined paper. Essentially, the paper will remain similar to the Hobart Herald, will include news of both colleges, will continue as a four page paper, the re-adjusement occurring as a larger proportion of news and a smaller amount of feature material. THE HERALD of Hobart and William Smith Colleges will be the name of the new enterprise whose staff will be populated by an equal number of students from each college, for the first year at least. Ediror-in-Chief for the coming year is George V. Palermo; his assistant is Marjorie Welch. STAFF ASSISTANTS; 1941-42 Features Writers Elwyn D. Brown Robert L. O’Connor Richard S. Nutt Victor I.
