If big Hare can handle a bomb the way he does a ball, he'll be doing more than his share in this war. I am now at March Field, Calif. at the Camouiiage School. As I sit here and write this to you, I am sweating my head off. The heat here is a great deal more intense than it is during August at home. I spent the past weekend in Hollywood and had a very nice time. They sure treat servicemen here grand. We spent Saturday afternoon at a big estate in Beverly Hills and dined and swam. I'm going back to Mountain Home, Idaho, this Friday, I hope this means a promotion, but who knows. This school is full of captains and ma- jors. It seems funny to yell at some major and say NI-Iey Bud , but we are all here together and we sure are break- ing our backs for the work is very hardf' The high school has one of the best ball handlers in school in I-larry alker, but do not have a strong iupporting cast. However, the aca- demy presents a better line-up than was oiiered last year, and their games are plenty interesting from the spec- tator's viewpoint. V v . 1 .E ..-. ' L , gf: -.7a....?- I l .I ,mu .

This year the Purple appear to have a decided edge over their Gold adversaries, according to popular o- pinion. Although they will miss the services of Frank Markell on the mound, along with Miller, Holloway. and Marshall afield, their ranks will be swelled by a strong frosh delega- tion composed of Walker, Strong, and Reynolds, to say nothing of Rus- sell Vincent. Their only weakness should be in the pitching department, where Ace Clark alone remains to dish out the goods. With such a ros- ter of players as they boast, however, they should be able to develop a start- er. Possibly the solution lies in Russell Vincent's port-side delivery, With Tuttle or Ramsley behind the plate, the Purple should be able to pick up 'an impressive infield combination from candidates Sheffer, Walker, Reynolds, Strong, Brownlee, and Ey- ler. notice to the Varsity and the conse-I l 1 MA-gf-7215 A 5, LL!

The high school gained 155 yards as against 96 gained by the frosh. The frosh lost 19 yards and their oppo- nents lost 67. Walker's kicks for the academy averaged 33 yards and Hol- lenbeck's one boot went for 38 yards. The yearlings intercepted 3 passes and the academy two. The frosh blocked one kick. The final score showed the yearlings to be ahead 10 to 0 by virtue of a touchdown, a conversion and a held goal. The frosh kicked OE to the high school and the academy lads showed the local fans the first attempt at razzle-dazzle ball handling which has been displayed this year. At the end of the first quarter the scoreboard read 0 to 0 with the most of the play- ing having taken place in midfield. Early in the second quarter Mar- kell intercepted a high school pass. Adam went through guard for 6 yards, a pass from I-lollenbeck to Smith gave the frosh 6 more yards and a pass from Markell to Reese for 15 yards gave them a first down and goal to go. Markell then threw the pigskin to Smith for 8 yards and in the next play Reese caught lVlarkell's pass just before it hit the ground to give the frosh a 6 point lead. Markell then converted to make the score 7-0.

During the entire game the academy lads fought an up- hill battle against a superior theolog team. However, their efforts were no sufficient when the theologs started clicking. What the theologs lacked in vigor was made up by their superior pass- ing and shooting. Each of their three forwards contributed heavily to the scoring while the high school relied almost entirely on Walker's long shots. . The high school maintained a man to man defense during the entire game. Previously their attempts at zoning had met with failure. This time, the guarding was quite effec- tive which resulted in a low-scoring ,gatne. The theolog defense- was lstrong and it limited the high school lto long tosses almost exclusively. l As usual, Walker was high-scorer lfor the game making 12 points l I A few of the more memorable of 1 these would include Phil Chase near- jly handing the seniors a lose in the first senior-frosh encounter, the jun- ior fems tipping the mighty sopho- mores, those same mighty sophs hold- ing the Sages scoreless for the second half of their gameg the theologs only real bid to glory, defeating the soph stalwartsg I-larry Walker's valiant attempts to keep the academy' boys in the league, and last but not least lim Evans masterful stalling in the final minutes of the last senior-frosh game. As yet the freshmen are still in the process of organization. With the team to be formed around Walker and B. Armstrong, this aggregation should furnish plenty of competiton for the upper classmen, and if their organization is good, they might prove a dark horse as did the freshmen of last year. ,Varsity-Frosh Tilts Set for Tomorrow Varsity to Feature Star-studded Cast ' Tomorrow evening the local bas- ketball enthusiasts will be privileged to see the newly inaugurated var- sity sharpshooters tee off against 'the yearling basketeers on the Bed- ford Court. The game should prove of much interest as the varsity pre- sent the scoring ability and the frosh, the high grade of scrappiness which has brought them through to vic- tory on previous occassions. The varsity, composed of Eyler, Foster, Mullin, Sheffer, Clark, Ken- nedy, Fenton, and Morris can right- fully lay claims to having the high- est scorers in the school as the high- est pointgetters, one to four inclusive, and the seventh and ninth men, appear on their roster. Coach Mc- Neese has released no starting lineup ro this source but stated that all will see action throughout the contest. It is possible that an all-Purple team might start, including Morris, Fenton, Eyler, Clark, and Sheffer, as these men have seen previous duty togteher. The frosh squad themselves present no pushover. Benn Armstrong, for- ward rated as fifth in the final tab- ulation for scoring honors, Hnished the season in a blaze of glory. Big George Waaser who gets the nod for the center position has proved his merit by his almost unlimited scrap- ping under the opponent's basket. jim Strong will start at the other forward position. In the backcourt we have Mel Lewellen and Walt Creque, both dangerous men on long shots and set shots. Such reserves as Little and Barnett will be on the bench, with nervous Valley Stgeaml' V-lfalker, cgi-ch, and now on the in- jured list, who might have spelled the difference between defeat and vic- tory if he were available for active duty. ' COPYRIGHT -194 3 The sophs headed by Walker looked good Monday a- gainst their green rivals, the frosh. Only time will telll Experience and unity will aid these three teams great- ly, unity being needed by any team which expects to get places this year. Ar this point in the campaign it looks as if the boys who will take the most watching this year are Big John Sheffer and Big Har-ei' Wal- ker. These two boys are going to cause their opponents a lor of grief before the last chord is struck in the Hnal stanza of this year's gridiron ' concert. Sports Flash . . . Cutting loose with an avalanche of points in the last four minutes of play, the junior courtmen snatched another game out of the fire yesterday afternoon by down- ing a speedy ftosh five 44-37, on the Bedford Gymnasium fioor. The yearling outfit held the cham- pions on even terms until the clos- ing minutes of play when Bob Clark and Dave Paine iced the contest with a quartet of Held goals. Harry Walker racked up nineteen points for the losers while Clark led the jaguars with an even dozen tallies. ll Thanksgiving echoes: Blackie and Harry Walker doing Noo Yawk- lhey waited an hour in Times Square to keep a date with Norm and Casey who must have been side- tracked somewhere . The frosh quintet which takes the floor against the third year men will consist of six men who will all see action throughout the contest- Strong, Armstrong, Walker, Lewel- len, Reynolds, and Crawford- with two other reserves dressed and on the bench, namely Little and Creque. Walker and Lewellen both served ap- prenticeship on the local high school team and are well known to the local basketball fans. l I l I Harry Walker Speaks at jForensic Union Meeting A well prepared essay on the topic Football , by Harry Walker, high- lighted last Monday evening's pro- gram of the Forensic Union. The entire meeting centered around the theme of the fall sport as president Paul Stewart presided over the mon- thly session of the club, held in the music auditorium. After devotions led by Perry Hill, two recordings were played. With- out A Song, and Deep Ri-ver. Fletch- er Crawford extemporized on the top- ic You Gotta Be a Football Hero, while Norman Mead took breaths away with his Sixty-Yard Run for lVassar.', Ruth Brooks told of some childhood experiences in speaking on Football, My Favorite Sport, while Clinton Boone's impromptu topic 'was Touch-Football, A Sport for Mollycoddlesf' Mr. Walker then gave his highly entertaining essay on the gridiron sport, describing the game from its origin. to present-day technical terms and fancy plays. Emily Markham led parliamentary drill and Norman Mead gave the Forensic humor. A short business session was followed by the singing of the Alma Mater. If Houghton were meeting Long Island U. tomorrow night in the Garden, here's the team we'd rake along: Evans, Eyler, Fenton, I-101- IOWHY, Markell, Prentice, Sheifer, Smith, Tlu-thill, and Walker.

Yes, four years have passed . . . years during which we have progressed . . . years during which we learned . . . and studi- ed to show ourselves approved.

The four years have passed . . . and we pause a moment to look back over the way we have come before setting out on the way which lies just ahead . . . And so looking back, we dream and remember . . . remember all the big things and the little things that made the big ones. Things like the strangeness of frosh week . . . they tried to sell us chapel seats . . . the first class, when we were assigned five chap- ters in history and we thought so this is col- lege . . . then there was our first artist series concert . . . we were filled with the beauty of the music . . . and found ourselves whispering g'This is college . . . things like eight o'clocks . . . labs . . . seating lists at the dorm . . . an orange coke and three jelly doughnuts at the Pantry . . . library fines the conglomeration of sounds emerging from the music building . . . spine-tingling passes into the end zone.. . ejections from the library . . . class basketball thrills . . . track and Held day . . . that class after chapel on Thursday morning when we always read the Star . . . things like the lingering glance of two frankly in love . . . bull sessions in which we discussed everything from chop suey to What's it all about anywayw . . . the hushed expectancy before a vesper service . . . the pervacling spirituality of a Student Prayer meeting . . . Yes, it has been something more than loud socks . . . a fur coat . . . a collegiate swagger . . . and purple shadows slanting over the goal posts on a fall afternoon . . . it has been beauty in the richness of a painting by Rembrandt . . . a poem by Matthew Arnold . . . or a Beethoven symphony . . . the soul searching challenge of a church where men meet Godu . . . a triumphant Christian testi- mony from sturdy young lips . . . the eiiicacy of prayer.

We read about it from books and is slipped from our minds carelessly. This time it was different. It was the youth of to- day that was going into this actuality in which we were to take part, in which we were to kill and be killed, in which there was no joy, only sorrow to all concerned, in which there could never be found justice. War was still war and the call came. Each dawning of a new day brought with iary it the loss of one or more of the fellows-not just one more human mechanism departing, but one more life, one more personality, one more friend going out into the great devasta- tion beyond. First .lohnny went south and then overseas. It wasn't long until Dick, and Harry, and Dave, and all the rest followed in his footsteps. From then on so many of the fellows have gone that l've lost count of them, but they are not forgotten. Every time l walk the halls, I see Johnny or Dave walking ahead of me, haunting me with the pleasant, and yes, the sad memories of the past-that night when Dave wandered by me blinded with tears that he could not suppress after little Ted had passed away, that winter evening when Johnny, all covered with snow, burst eagerly into my room to tell me that Mary had said '4Yes,', that night when Harry was hoaxed by a gang of girls, that night when Dick and Betty took that last long stroll down the silvery lane arched by the great elms beneath the full moon before he was sent overseas-Betty walks alone now. l recall these scenes in the vaguely shrouded past which is ever before me as I tramp the lonely halls and the wooded hills. We settled many of our problems to- gether here, and now we will settle this great issue over theref, We are left behind to await our turn, but even now Harry and Dave and all the rest are out on the far-flung frontiers fighting- hghting for their freedom, their homes, their lives, and yes, for your life and for mine. They did not want to go, but when the nation arf' fit' called, they readily envisioned that call as a moral obligation to join their comrades who were already on the battlefields fighting amid their own blood and sweat to keep their covenant with those who have already sacri- ficed their lives- that these dead shall not have died in vainf' These fellows left their college life behind, perhaps never to return. They subjugated their personal ambitions to repay in part the great debt which they owed to their country, the country which had afforded them ulife, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness? They answered that call bravely as well might we, and they shall not fail for within their breasts, hope has been rekindled as they look on high toward their ideal. It is to you, Harry, and Dave, and Dick, and Johnny, and to all the other fellows like you, who are your friends and our friends, and who have gone out from Houghton College to serve in the armed forces of our nation, that we dedicate the 1943 Boulder, with our deep- est gratitude for your service in our behalf. fit' add' 'kit' F?

Prof. Smithls rendition of the chapel notices with academic gusto . . . Dr. Smallis Shakespearian suavity . . . Prof. Stan's explicit ambiguity . . . the vivacious Senorita Pool . . . stimulating lectures by Dr. Ashton . . . we stored too, .the inspiration of lives tireless in sympathetic guidance . . . consecrated to Christian service . . . ever moulding our impressionistic youth- fulness into channels of purposeful an d gracious living. Combining idealism 'with foresighted ef- ficiency was no small task . . . yet it was one to which the administration measures up nobly . . . never so deeply involved with the techni- calities of coordinating the activities of the school program that their personalities became lost in the maze of college bulletins . . . library regulations . . . grade indices . . . and budgets. We grew to look for Lena,s', quiet friendli- ness . . . Dean Hazlettis pungent erudition . . . Anneis brisk Walk . . . Mr. Karkeris genial sagacity . . . Prof. Fancher's kindly interest. Their energies were devoted to a bigger and better future for Houghton . . . and a campus life calculated to encourage a dynamic and life-giving faith. These are troublesome times . . . but strong in her convictions . . . secure in her strength . . . Houghton College reaches outward . . . looks upward . . . lives in the hearts of those who serve and love her.

THE STUDENT COUNCIL SUALLY when a new reform pol- icy was instituted . . . we settled back in our seats and said proudly: wlihe student council has done it againfi Ever-influential in crystallizing and reflecting student opinion . . . the Council was especially active this year under the leadership of that advocate of progressive reform, Warren Wool- sey. The most dynamic student organization of authority . . . the Council acted as a unifying force . . . representing a cross-grain of student thought . . . it sifted criticisms for improve- ment . . . and functions as a coordinator of student-faculty relationships. A delineation of some of their activities was sufficient to impress us as to their vitality . . . they were joint sponsors of the war stamp sales campaign . . . sponsored a special chapel on etiquette . . . petitioned the faculty and were granted the right of the students to study in the library evenings even if not using reserve books . . . made an extensive study of a program to increase war-consciousness on the campus . . . which resulted in a resolution presented to the faculty that all clubs and some organiza- tions be abolished for the duration of the war . . . in order that the students might have more time to devote to the war courses and activi- ties . . . were instrumental in the formation of a War Council elected from the student body . . . and also instituted an important change in student governmental policy . . . with a view to encourage students to use the Council as the logical channel for the promotion of their practical ideas . . . two days were designated as Student Council days in which time students were encouraged to hand in suggestions for any policies of improvement . . . and new powers were delegated to the student body through the presentation of all major Council resolutions to the student body for approval before being taken to the faculty . . . and so as an agency of student government . . . the Student Coun- cil maintained a plan of progressive leadership . . . working to improve our campus commu- nity through an organized, intelligent effort.

E thought about it . . and con- sidered . . . and discussed . . . we filled out application blanks . .. then took a deep breath and found ourselves on the little campus in the heart of the Genesee country . . . eager . . . a little uncertain . . . but filled with deep resolve and high aspirations . . . as we em- barked upon the most adventuresome four years of our life. Freshman aptitude tests and general registra- tion required all our concentration right at Hrst . . . so we didnit have time to be home- sick. And then there was the New Student's Reception . . . the Progressive party and we were won by the sincere friendliness of the faculty . . . and there was Frosh week . . . we proved our athletic prowess . . . and won our first bid for recognition. We hadn't been in Houghton long before we began to feel a part of her. It wasn't something that a person could put his finger on exactly . . . but we felt it way down inside as we . . . swept over the goal for our first touchdown . . . were greeted by upperclassmen . . . sat with bowed heads as the last strains of the choral benecliction melted in reverent stillness. Weid known each other for a short time . . . but we proved our ability to choose real leaders in the person of Blumer7' Houser as president, assisted by John Sheffer, with Bea Gage as secretary, and Gwen Fanchcr as treasurer. From the faculty we selected Mrs. Stockin and Prof. Shea to supply us with academic counsel. Our first year moved swiftly . . . was gone and as the summer wore on . . . we found our- selves anxiously waiting to get back with the gang again . . . to make new friendships . . . and renew old ones. Clean-cut Bill Johnson wielded the soph gavel for us, assisted by '4Brodhead, with 'fScuHy keeping a digest of class activities and Rachel Boone handling the finances. Prof. Shea con- tinued in the genial role of advisor. Wheli autunm was wielding her paint brush . . . days were filled with hectic discussions over the highly important selection of class jackets. Strange phrases floated in the atmos- phere . . . zippers . . . or buttons . . . long or short . . . reversible . . . raglan sleeves . . . and finally we emerged . . . well satis- fied in maroon and white. Our class party was great fun . . . we fol- lowed a blazed trail through the woods . . . ate around a smoky camp fire . . . toasted our own hot dogs . . . sang songs and played crazy games. Vlfe lived up to our reputation for origin- ality too . . . that Soph-Senior party . . . the patriotic theme . . . a personalized presenta- tion of Shakespeare's Pyramus and Thisbe . . . as Eddie heroically tried to maintain the silence of Ninny's tomb . . . and 'utterly failed, to our hysterical delight. Our junior year was ushered in by the blaze of autumn's glory at Letchworth Park . . . as we entertained our newly arrived sister class . . . tramping about . . . developing an appe- tite . . . only to discover that we were all there, but the hot dogs werenlt. P SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS BURT SWALES .,.... ..,.,...... P resident EDGAR DANNER ....A.. ...4. V ice President NIARJORIE SMITH ..eA.. . ...,... Secretary HARRIET KALLA .,.. ...., T reasurer Prof. Shea was our advisor again . while Brodhead', di- rected class aifairs assisted by Paul Stewart, Mary Jane and Gwen. As juniors we filled a number of important positions in campus life . . . winning the inter-class debate series for the third con- secutive year . . . and publishing an outstanding Boulder, edited by Don Pratt . . . with John Merzig as business manager. The crowning event was the Junior-Senior banquet at the Olean House . . . a Gay Nineties theme . . . the class barber shopn quartet renditions . . . lanky Paul Stewart exercising his wit as master of ceremonies . . . with B.B.C. radio artists furnishing the mu- sical highlights. We came back to our senior year at Houghton . . . with just a little different feeling than weld ever had before . . . uncer- tainty . . . wonderment at what the future held . . . but we wanted to be prepared . . . to do our bit in helping to right this crazy world . . . to help perpetuate the things that were more to us than empty phrases . . . freedom from want . . . from fear . . . freedom to be tolerant . . . to live unchallenged . . . equal under God . . . building a new, a better world. Our new maturity became us strangely well . . . we chose Burt Swales to guide us through our final year . . . aided by aiiable Eddie Danner . . . and Harriet Kalla who digested the class ac- tivities and Marg Smith was alert to her duties as treasurer. Dr. Ashton proved to be a capable advisor in the absence of Prof. Shea who was serving Houghton and his country. We were proud of our group receiving honors in Whois Who: Rachel Boone's scholastic leadership, Ruth Fancher's cooperative- ness, Bert Hall's debating, Bob Oehrig's journalistic achievements, Bill Johnsonls parliamentary leadership, John Sheifer's athletic prowess, Kay Walberger's eiiicient versatility, Marg Smithis mu- sicianship, Warren Woolseyis keenness forrreform, and Mary Jane Larsonjs leadership in many diverse activities. The year was a kaleidoscope of activities . . . Skip Day . the pancake breakfast, the eerie hayride to the cemetery . . . the Inner Sanctum program. And now the four years are finished . . . over. But welve learned many things not bound between the dog-cared covers of a text-book . . . tolerance . . . the understanding heart . . . a Christ- centered life . . . ideals of service. Our heritage from Houghton is more than a college degree . . . it is a credo for living. 21 Dotus ll'lAE ANDERSON JAMESTOWN, N. Y.

Guided by the efiicient, ubiquitous Bob Oehrig, this yearas smaller staff was a marvel of cooperation. Prosaic assignments were not enough to still the enthusiasm in the hearts of the reporters. Their pens filled reams of paper in dressed-up descriptions of uninteresting basketball games, football games, or music recitals. As a result, the occasional good games looked little better in print than the unworthy ones . . . for no superlative adjectives remained unused with which to distinguish them. But newspaper sports reporters were ever thus . . . We forgive them. The big reporter,s assignment of the year was Bill Smalley's interview with Lew Sarett, great contemporary poet. Such fortune seldom befalls a Star reporter . . . Bill carried it off in masterly fashion. What most of us look back to are the feature columns . . . for if we read nothing else on the four pages, we always glance at one or two of these clever concoctions of fact and humor REPORTORIAL STAFF Back row: WALBERGER, SAM- Ul-:1.soN, W.

Speaking Frankly made its debut last fall . . . Blumer's delight- fully informal menu of statistics, pertinent news items, and analyses of happenings on both the national and international fronts was agree- able to the most finicky reader . . . Then for the straight dope on campus irregularities, String was fortunate enough to get a private wire from the ancient sage, Diogenes. Although a considerable intellectual degeneracy was apparent in the old boy's', communiques, still we all realized their significance and made it a real point to read each one . . .

Lack of time, news, and paper created the 'fbabyn Star, void of all non-essential items . . . the wartime Star guided by Oehrig was versatile and vital.

CARAPETYAN Conductor A CAPPELLA CHOIR HE Processional . . . white satin surplices over purple . . . the clownbeat . . . a rich, full throated volume of song . . . young voices weaving a thread of melody . . . we were proud to be selected from the student body . . . to represent Houghton in her choir . . . eager to give our best . . . to sing our way into the hearts of those who heard us. We were a choir with a message. And although we were restricted in travel for the duration . . . our schedule was a busy one . . . this year marking the twelfth season of the Houghton College Choir as a concert organ- ization. We devoted ourselves exclusively to the presentation of sacred music . . . and our spiritual sincerity, combined with persistent training . . . helped to make each concert an outstanding interpretation of musical expres- sion. An interested smile . . . a sense of humor quizzically lighting up a pair of very dark eyes . . . dynamically expressive hands . . . a passion for fine music . . . and an ability to patiently mould and perfect a fine perform- ance from his group . . . these breathed into the conducting of Prof. Carapetyan . . . inspired us to put our all into the music. There was a dearth of choir members in those Monday morning eight o'clocks some- times . . . our Sunday schedules occasionally were complicated by unexpected departures from the mapped out melody lanes. Leaky radiators . . . temperamental fan belts . . . protesting school buses disturbed from their weekend somnolence . . . space for twenty-two rationed out to forty people and inanimate baggage . . . often our trail of song was strewn with hectic memories . . . but we shook off the inconveniences as we did the wrinkles in our satin surplices . . . and remembered it was fun . . . but not the next morning . . . when sleep- less eyes refused to open . . . even at the insist- ent clatter of the alarm. Presbyterian . . . Congregational . . . Meth- odist . . . Baptist . . . large churches . . small . . . our ministry of song was to a variety of audiences. Warsaw . . . Penn Yan . . . Geneva, where we had one of the larffest crowds to U which the choir has ever sung . . . Canisteo . . . Hornell . . . Elmira . . . Corning . . . even though the churches were unfamiliar, we sang to sympathetic, friendly faces. We responded to their warmth . . . poured out our message in ma- jestic chorales . . . motets . . . and gospel hymns. Our songs were composed of four groups: the First of English and Latin, opening with 'Sing We All With One Accord by Praetorius . . . the second group, with Baclfs 'al Wrestle and Prayw, was composed of double choruses . . . the long third group was a modern Russian number of rich harmonies and a decided climax . . . and 'included in the fourth was a dramatic composition written by our own di- rector, Prof. Caro M. Carapetyan . . . dedicated to the Houghton College Choir. Based upon Psalm 130 . . . it has an unusual ending in unison . . . c'Out of the Depths Have I Cried Unto Thee, O Lordw. And although the course of the year saw many of our tenor section abandoning the choir robes for the uniform of their country . . . We had many capable soloists . . . Peg's alto . . . Virginia's clear soprano . , . petite Phebe . . obliging Dick Elmer. Wie had a group of familiar hymns which we usually gave after the concert proper . . . And it was most often through these that hearts were touched. As we hunnned ClLristiansen's Beautiful Savior . . . as the notes of When I Survey the WOHd1'0llS Crossj' blended and swelled . . . as the words ugive peace, O God, give peace againi' drifted across the quiet . . . we felt an inner warmth . . . an inner joy . . that only serving Christ can give.

Although in the main a stamping ground for music majors . . . this year the orchestral rank and file numbered many other students interested in becoming amateur virtuosos. A concert featuring Franklin Bristol as cello. soloist was the highlight of the first semester . . . also the presentation of Haydnis Surprise Symplzrony. Especially worthy of mention is the excellent string section under the leadership of Prof. John Andrews, concert- meister. The orchestra accompanied the Oratorio Society in its Christmas presentation of the rnagnilicently inspiring Messialz . . . and spent an enjoyable afternoon being entertained at tea at the Cronks' home . . . listening to rec- ords . . . and culling OVCI' collective disharmon- ies. When Prof. Cronk took the podium he was lord of all he surveyed . . . had long since proved his ability to deHect witticisms with a double meaning . . . his taking it on the chin . . . a master of musicianship . . . under his leadership, the orchestra has advanced.

Backward glances reveal . . . that the Gold triumphs were largely due to the excellent guarding of Hagberg, Waterman, and Burt . . . that the Purple defeats were due to poor guard- ing . . . as the Gold forwards shot time after time outside the zone defenses.
