In this first year the class climaxed its activities with a very successful Class Prom. In May. Wi’. the class elected Kenneth h Dungill. president. Edmund Ycarwood, treasurer: and Imogene Hawkins, secretary. Here again, the Class broke tradition by being the most active class of sophomores seen on Howard's campus in many years The first of it year's activities was a very entertaining Chapel program for freshmen. This was followed by an evening Musical I’va in Crandall Hall Striking again, the Class successfully sponsored .1 Thanksgiving Needy Basket Campaign and just recently sponsored a novelty in the form of a Revenge Dance Despite the war. the C lass of D promises to continue its efforts to prove that classes and utU function successfully. 43 FRESHMAN FLA It was September 2 I. 1942. and in wc trooped, over tltltree-hundreil strong- Wc were heralded as one of the largest classes in the history ot Howard University, and in our hearts we said we would he the best Freshmen week . week of wide-eyed gazing . . unwilling awe of upper classmen . marveling al the number of pretty girls . . the number of handsome fellows.

Notable achievements of this year's ( ouncil have- been its several enjoyable socials, the extensive program of Gridiron activities during the Thanksgiving recess, its welfare program, including the Arkansas share toppers contribution, its scrap drives, the completion of the Student Loan Fund started by an earlier Council, and its contribution to the Howard Service Flag.

However. wide differences in the social and educational interests of the Engineering and Architectural students necessitated some remedial step in the governmental setup. Therefore, in 1935. due to determined efforts, an independent organization, the Engineering and Architectural Council, was formed. 46 W. IIIIAM Pa«.I Et MFR WllITINC.

It is this interpretation of the founding of the first chapter which has made Alpha a brotherhood of leaders. It is this doctrine, preached in each of the 169 chapters into which the organization has grown, which is responsible for Alpha men being in the vanguard in ever)- field of human endeavor. Beta C haptcr was founded at Howard University on December 20. 1907, the second chapter of the fraternity and the first on a Negro campus. Since that day Beta has adhered rcligiousl) to the fundamental precepts of Alpha Phi Alpha by supplying leaders to flic campus community anti to the race at large 'Tint of All.

As a part of its activity program the club is icquiicd to sponsor some project and a smoker for the fraternity, and to acquire a detailed knowledge and thorough understanding of the history, aims, and ideals of Alpha Phi Alpha. The officers of the present club, consisting of some twenty-odd members feature Gregory McNeill, president Edward Petty, vice-president-treasurer, and Hugh Holcombe, secretary. 57 KAPPA ALPHA I'SI FRATERNITY The Kappa Alpha Pm Fraternity being organized at Indiana University, 1911. spread from the West to the Fast and in 1920 began its career at Howard University. This chapter was named flu. Xi chapter.

This year under the- leadership of T. D. Hill, Jr. (Polemarch) 1 M 1 the Xi chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi has gone on % J 1. B towards its goal of achievement, civilly as well as socially. Although the- men are not in resilience, the fraternity is in the ownership of an elaborate fraternity house (Kappa Kastlc) located at Hth and Girard Streets N.W.. as soon as the war takes a definite turn it is assured that the Kappa Kastlc will again lend its traditional aid in the fostering of good will, fellowship and entertainment for the general student body. Kappa Alpha Psi has always been with the leaders in the building of Howard spirit. This year along with the- members of the Glass of A , Kappa Alpha Pd wishes to extend its compliments to the Howard community and expresses the desire to continue in the building of a better Howard. 58 SCII01.1.1.US CLUB The Stroller luh in an affiliate organization of Kappa Alpha P i and is conceived to give intellectual play to prospects tor entrance into the fraternity proper.

Rather we arc despondent now, for we feel heavily the losses which Sigma has experienced from two sources: the absence of 0 many younger members (now in war service) in whom lie the hopes of our future, and the loss of George Washington Carver, whose life crystallines the ideals of our fraternity, our objective as expressed in our motto (ulture for Service- and Service for Humanity'' and provides excellent examples for the aspiring youth of the world However, let no one suppose that this dcsjxindency is of such a nature as to paralyze all activity or blot out all hope of the future. For that same fund of ideals which gave impetus to our organization in the blind uncertainty of 19M and in the years tangent tliereto still bears us strong stead. Our campus program has deviated little from the usual if at all, only for the better. In the ignorance of what our fate may be . t the hands of the Selective Service (and recently of the Enlisted Reserve Corps), we- find it possible to function guided by a happy optimism. 61 ALPHA KAPPA ALPHA SUII I) III TV ALPHA KAPPA ALPHA (� r r Thompson Jru.s Thompson Jam Bowles Ki in Simmons Gmci Thompson (.11 aki ottf Pakkits Violet Kennedy Biatrice Tt rn'er Lsihfk Pon API Bjy SrU .

Since that time both the School of Music and the School of lingineering and Architecture have instituted such .1 system to acknowledge the scholastic achievements of student in tltesc schools. In the fall of each year there IS an Honors Day Program in the university c hapel. I he scholastic averages arc computed by .1 grade basis and arc cumulative. Because most of these, students have been active participants not only in scholarship but also in all phases of college life, they should make outstanding contributions in the many fields of endeavor wherever they go. 72 ACHIEVEMENT KEYS H CliP It has been a tradition for the Student ( ounril to recognize the achievements of the Students by awarding keys to those students who with creditable academic records have been most outstanding in extra-curricular activities. This year special medals will be given to the male and female who gained the highest ratings of the various campus achievements. This year at commencement recognition will he given to Mr Thomas I).

To Dr- Mordecat Johnson, our president, we bequeath this wish of sincerity: that he may remain president of Howard University in order that it may continue to be as wonderful an institution as it is today. To Dr. Lovell, our friend and advisor, wc will the respett and cooperation of the entire student body, an l continued success in encouraging and pushing forward each student in the university. Elaine Brazier leaves to Mauvice Winslow the distinction of continuing to Ik the highest ranking student in her class.

West Virginia, .uni Jesse ( hast from Boston University as the coaches that put Howard back in the win column. The first game of the 1941 season against C hcyncy State Teachers College was a massacre; next the team tangled with the Howard scholastic eligibility regulations and lost I s men out of a squad ot so Under those handicaps they left to hold Shaw University, a powerhouse in the C I.A.A . down to the score of 120. but lost two men for the remainder ol the season. Charles Bowser broke his leg anil C Juries Barton broke his ankle Then the Howard male students showed there were a few men left among them, when fifteen Ixjys came out the follow ing Monday in an effort to replace the casualties. Several of them went on to become worthy additions to the team such as William Pritchett. Josh Dashicll. Lorenzo Harris. Timer Whiting, and Erskine Freeman The teim went on to a record of four wins against three losses, climaxing the season with a heart-breaking 21-6 loss to Lincoln at Philadelphia The turning point of the game was in the first quarter when Howard got a first down on Lincoln's four-yard line by virtue of a pass from Hanks to Mitchell and tailed to score. (thecaptain), William Dimples ' Pippin. Thomas W hiting, ( lurles Ankles aBrton. Elmer Speed Whiting. Butch Wheeler. Theodore Cuebair Smith, and Myron Tiger Ross, plus the talents of the following freshmen: Hank” Houzc, James Lynn, Adkins Aldrich, C alvin Scott, and James Jackson. Snooky Carroll, high scoring fullback of rite 1911 eleven, scheduled to return for bis senior year, became a cadet at Bowling Field. Washington, D. ( After having rearranged the schedule to suit the limited transportation facilities, Howard started off very impressively by holding an experienced All-Star team to a scoreless tic. beating Camp Pickett 7-o. and tying Dove r State s powerhouse 1 V15 by scoring twice in the last quarter. Then they hit the road (and the lost column) for Hampton. Union, anil a return game at C amp Pickett, losing to them all. 120. 13-0. 70, respectively. This year Howard met Lincoln in the Griffith Stadium and Lincoln slipped and slided to a muddy 2 )-c victory despite the efforts of a valiant Howard team As usual Lincoln scored on passes. In fact, the Howard line was scored on only once (by Union) the entire season; a big hand should go to its mainstays. Pippin, Aldrick Bell. Houze Wesley. C hampion and F. Whiting. Next year's prospects look very good with many returning veterans, if Untie Sam lets them return in civilian clothes instead of khaki. The 19 12 team was built around the following veterans, Walter Bubber” Mitchell, Harvey Banks 86 n 87 BASKETBALL Usually an oasis in rhc otherwise endless desert of Howard athletic defeats is the re-cord of the basketball ijuint. This year has been no exception for the Bisons of the court started out with an impressive victory over a galaxy of alumni greats. This initial victory was. perhaps, a criterion of better things to come. After a dismal road trip, marked by no victories and two defeats, the quint approached the pinnacle ol success in returning home lot a victory over Coach Jefferson's Trojans of Virginia .State. As the game with Union loomed, the Howard team represented in pre-game doping another lamb to be slaughtered by the merciless dream team Also. Howard represented tlu- epitome of all C. I A A undeidog quints before a Union game, in that there was a fervent hope of victory. The rest is bull ession'' material Our court heroes climbed to an impossible height to destroy the myth ol invincibility that surrounded Union. If every other contest had to be marked up in the lost column, the season would have been successful, for (repetition is the only means of delivering the joy) Howard humbled mighty Union. Tlu cage season, however, was not completed and neither was the desire of the cugers to win hall gamo satiated. To the campus followers, the cage team brought thrill alter thrill in victory and defeat lliis year, unlike other years. (oath Burr has an unending stock of talent. The freshman and sopho more hopefuls possess amazing ability and are entirely capable of earning starting berths. With a little polish, the team would have been potential ( I. A. A. champs. But that dream must wait. As usual the doormen tek victories over Lincoln. The material to slap the Lions into defeat is there and it is no forlorn liojxr that Howard's 1942-4J record will show in the victory column the results of the Lincoln encounter. 88 MIXING TEAM The harJest working aggregation on the campus is the tine boxing stju.nl under the tutelage of Coach jtsst B.

Led by C aptain Marty Johnson, one of the few upperclassmen on the sejuad. the strappers are j'utting more zest into eath practice session than most of the athletic aggregations on the campus put into i season of competition An mt:nn interest in the pugilistic art has been stirred up by tin- vigorous intra mural boxing pro gram Recruiting novices from lus Physical Education classes, Coach Chase is moulding a fine team of potential C I A A championship caliber Many of the men have had experience as amateur pugs all over the nation, thereby giving the men tor a nucleus lor his team. The spirit of the team is marvelous a evidenced by this episode in the small gymnasium The fellows were sup|x scdly resting after a tough sparring session the day be fore. Instead of avoiding gloves, punching bags, ami all tin- other paraphernalia that the scrappers use to round into condition, everyone stripped to tlu waist and went through his paces. Coach ( base, noting this display j'roudlr remarked. I've never seen a hunch of fellows like these They never want to stop training. The boys were assembled that day only to glamorize tor the Bison photographer But the) dc-glamorizcd m a style most becoming champions. To them the campus points with pride. VO TRACK AT HOWARD l or the first time in years, the Bisons partook of track in the form of a cross-country team. The -.park-plug of the freshman team was Wesley D. Mayo, a product of Providence. Rhode Island. In trouncing Armstrong and Cardozo high schools, the frosh terminated an undefeated season. The varsity and freshman teams, under the generalship of ( . Allen Johnson, combined to win the citywide meet. Johnson, w ho hails from Hartford, Connecticut, proved hunselt an able captain as well as a fleet-foot on the track. The squad was adequately represented by a group of iwcniv-ninc men. The regular team was cal led out in mid-February, A large and growing group of youngster-, readily responded to the call of Coach C.lusc. They have been working daily in the hopes of bringing their Alma Mater the best team in years. Harry I Woods, a speedster from Newark, New Jersey, is track captain. He is a middle-distance man of fine ability and is expected to do yeoman work in helping the Bisons return to their former heights. Track meets scheduled for the frosh include Dunbar. Armstrong, and C'ardozo high schools. The varsity schedule includes Hampton, Lincoln tlu Penn Relays, and the annual C I. A. A. meet. 91 DANC ING t arc fortunate in our physical education pro gram here at Howard because we have not neglected to otter an a.tivity that renders r h opportunities for creative expression. Tlwt activity is Modern Dancing. Dana in out program is not given purely for entertainment but rather for its educational values. We have followed the principle that right dancing can cadence the new soul, bring harmony between basal and finer muscles, nd also between feeling and intellect, body and mind.” So—more power to our Sepia Martha Grahams and to those of you who think you’re interested come on, let s dance! Quotation by G Stanley Hall. 92 BAUMINTUIV and AHLHEIIY BADMINTON Badminton, .� cross between tennis and volley ball, is a popular part of the Howard girls sport program. It is included in both the regular classes and the intra mural sports activities. The several tournaments that were held this year and the important role it plays in the Women’s Sports Day attest to its popularity. ARCHERY Little Dan Cupid could learn plenty about archery from these skilled archers Hus sport is scry jsopular in the Women’s Department of Physical Education, and (us earned its rightful place in the intra-mural program The ultimate objection is perfection in form which will bring the desired results that these girls will get—Bull's Eyes! That first bull's-eye is ..n accident, the rest come only with considerable practice. FENCING mill GIII.F FENCING There is a sport that will last as long as fiction is read, and dramas are portrayed. The student studying Shakespeare cannot escape reading about fencing, and the movie goer is enchanted at the swordsmanship displayed. The keen interest in fencing is in the sport itself, not as a means of self defense against enemies. Hut fencing has another factor which gives validity to its plate in our physical education program—Health! If gives excellent coordination of the body, and develops charm and grace in its every movement. Fencing is also valuable from cIk educational standpoint. An intimate knowledge of this sport can make literature really alive, for the amateur fencer can imagine vividly the scene in many a novel and drama, and in history The sport can easily be continued aftir school days arc over, because it demands only two people for competition and not a great deal ol space 1 Ik- fencers above are anxiously awaiting the command, ■'Play. GQI-F Golf, one of the most popular games in the nation for men. docs not want for popularity among women attending Howard University, because it has already ln.cn accepted into the physical education program with much enthusiasm. Orig-anally introduced m Scotland in I I5 7, it was played by those of nobility: however by flu close of the nineteenth century, its acceptance had become wide- spread, and w. s then introduced into the United Stales. The Father of American Golf was John Reid, among whose connections was the belief that it w.is a gentleman's, game.
