STRUBLE Typists presents THE 1953 OF LEBANON VALLEY MAY • 1952 QUITTAPAHILLA COLLEGE, ANNVILLE, PENNSYLVANIA A JUNIOR CLASS PUBLICATION DEDICATED TO FREDERICK K. MILLER Though it is but coincidence that we, the class of 1953, present our yearbook in the same year that Dr. Frederick K. Miller has been installed as president of our school, we are proud to be the first to salute him in that office in this manner. With loyalty to the leader who in his inaugural address presented his belief that the task of the small liberal arts college is to produce men and women who are Christian in their out- look, courageous in their living, and devoted in their service to those things which produce a better civilization, with admiration for the scholar, and above all, with appreciation of and affection for the man who has been a friend and guide throughout our years at Lebanon Valley, to him we dedicate this book. ADMINISTRATION AND FACULTY FREDERICK K. MILLER President PRESIDENT ' S MESSAGE You have our heartiest congratulations upon your fine achievements at Lebanon Valley College and our very best wishes for the future. A college education, like free- dom, carries with it duties and obligations as well as rights and privileges. As you have so frequently lived up to those obligations on our campus, we trust you will likewise make every effort to assume the responsibilities of citizenship in your respective communities. We live in times which have been characterized in many different ways — an era of decision, an age of crisis, a day of emergency. You will do well to accept this period of man ' s history as a challenge. Some of our most cherished beliefs and ideals are being challenged daily. We must rise to the challenges, whatever the cost. As inheritors of Christian western culture, we must not only preserve our way of life, we must exert ourselves to extend it and to insure it for our posterity. College has undoubtedly given you many good friends. Make every effort to keep in touch with them. While you surely will take away with you upon graduation many intangible values, campus friendships can be among the most desirable. We urge you to become an active alumnus and to return to the campus often. It is always mutually beneficial to both the college and our alumni to welcome you back to the campus for visits, brief though they may be. You will be glad for the opportunity to renew friendships and relive your under-graduate days. We in turn need to know occasionally of your interest in us. So be an interested alumnus! Be assured of our continued interest in you and in your future. FREDERICK K. MILLER LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE ADMINISTRATION 1952 A. H. M. STONECIPHER Dean of the College WILLIAM A.

CONSERVATORY 13 WASHINGTON HALL MEN ' S DORMITORY 14 NORTH HALL SOUTH HALL 15 WEST HALL gT J V WJ?; SHERIDAN HALL 16 SENIORS As the members of the Class of 1952 go through their graduation exercises they will become the eighty-second graduating class from Lebanon Valley College. Soon, to most of us, they will become rapidly fading memories whose names we cannot recall and whose features we cannot quite remember. Their records of progress through their four years of college activity will have become a permanent part of the College, both for future reference and for past proof of their capabilities. However, we are confronted with the task of portraying the individuals as we know them. The Quittie staff is proud to present the graduating class of Lebanon Valley College. 17 SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS President SHERDELL SNYDER Vice-President WILLIAM CRAIGHEAD Secretary .

STRAUSE 22 23 DEDICATED TO THE MEMORY OF OUR CLASSMATE, CHUCK MASTON CHARLES CHUCK MASTON CHUCK was one of the greatest boys ever to graduate from Southside High School, Elmira, N. Y. He was a unanimous All-Southern Tier Conference halfback in 1948. He was a sectional champion in track. He also played basketball for the Green Hornets. After graduation from high school Chuck entered Lebanon Valley college to continue his education. He finished two years in this institution where he made many friends both among students and faculty. He participated in football and track and was greatly interested in all of the activities of the school. He was a member of the L Club and the Knights of the Valley. Just at the close of his sophomore year he was stricken with leukemia, the dread blood disease. Chuck fought valiantly for seven months to conquer this disease which was fatal from the start. His many friends both here and in Elmira donated blood to help him in his fight but on December 12 death overcame him. Chuck was 21 years old and lived in Lemoyne with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Paul Maston. Moon Mullins, Chuck ' s coach in high school, paid him this tribute I can ' t help feeling that if I took all the good characteristics of all the other boys I ' ve coached and rolled them up, out would come Chuck Maston. Heaven must have badly needed a fine competitor for its football and track teams to ask for Chuck so soon. This is no doubt the sentiment of all those who knew him and were associated with him. 24 JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS President WILLIAM SHOPPELL Vice-President JOHN WALTER Secretary RUTH EVANS Treasurer DAVID NEISWENDER 25 ROBERT W.

Under the leadership of president Lou Sorrentino, ably assisted by vice-president Calvin Haverstock, secretary Gail Edgar, and treasurer Jack Irvin this group contributed to a successful social year at L.V. the fine Frosh Hop with its South Sea Island Theme. Later in the year they proved their unusual political views in electing their present diminutive but dynamic president, Gail Edgar. With her fellow officers, secretary Barbara Ranck, vice- president Bill Kelly, and treasurer Paul Holhgan, she has carried on the good work of her pred- ecessors. The class sponsored an enjoyable hay-ride and dance in the fall, and they are for- warding plans to sponsor a Jazz Concert later in the spring. This class is another L.V. success. They ' re a success by means of hard work alone, with a total lack of pull. Ask the men of the class. They have no pull at all! Just give them enough rope and they ' ll end up in the Quittie! 42 43 44 FRESHMAN CLASS OFFICERS President . . ROSS FASICK Vice-President GEORGE SEIFERT Secretary VIRGINIA FEESER Treasurer RONALD GEESEY 45 FRESHMAN CLASS Here is a group in which we of the Junior Class recognize kindred spirits. They have exhibited as decided a taste in headgear as we had when freshmen. The men of this class didn ' t stop with winning the Tug-o-war. They went on to wrap up the tag-football title and defeat the soph football team. With spirit like this we feel that their officers, president Ross Fasick, vice-president George Seifert, secretary Virginia Feeser, and treasurer Ronald Geesey can lead them to take their place as an outstanding group on campus. 46 47 48 MISS QUITTIE Alicia Whiteman 49 MISS QUITTIE COURT Joan Gilbert 50 MISS QUITTIE COURT Grace Mohn 51 MR.

C John Walter 53 MAY DAY-1951 54 MAY DAY Lights — camera — action, yelled producer Rutherford Cripes as the cameras rolled on the 1951 May Day production of Pirate Island. The scene was set for talented Darlene Moyer as the small-town girl who wins a ticket to Hollywood is found by the producer and captivates all movieland with her captive maiden dance. In glittering technicolor, pirates, cannibals, sailors, and skeletons danced their way into the hearts of the thrilled audience. The gay festivities were led by the beautiful May Queen, Cynthia Johnson Bruaw, her maid of honor Ruth Ann Brown, and her court of lovely ladies — Rufina Balmer, Joyce Carpenter, Jeanne Edwards, Sara Etzweiler, Evelyn Long and Beatrice Royer. The honor of crowning the queen was held by Miss Mary E. Gillespie, dean of the Conservatory. This elegant gaiety was climaxed by the May Pole Dance performed by the lords and ladies of the Junior class followed by the procession of the crowned queen and her court. Due appreciation should be paid to Dr. George Struble and Mrs. Ernestine Smith for the script and excellent direction of the piracy which made the 1951 May Day one of the best. 55 56 CYNTHIA JOHNSON BRUAW QUEEN — 1951 57 58 STUDENT-FACULTY COUNCIL OFFICERS President FRED SAMPLE Vice-President EDWARD TESNAR Secretary JANE LUTZ Treas urer WILLIAM SHOPPELL The purpose of the Student-Faculty Council is to foster understanding and cooperation be- tween the students and faculty of Lebanon Valley College, and to advance the welfare of the student body through the coordination of student activities. The Student-Faculty Council is composed of one representative from each recognized student organization and three representatives from the faculty. 59 JIGGERBOARD OFFICERS President LOIS ADAMS Vice-President DIANE RANDOLPH Secretary PHYLLIS BARNHART Treasurer JULIA THATCHER Responsibility for conduct and welfare of dormitory girls is carried by the Resident Women ' s Student Government Association, better known as Jiggerboard. This representative body is composed of dormitory girls from each class. Along with the solving of disciplinary problems, Jiggerboard sponsored Gander Week-end and the annual Christmas Dinner-Dance when the girls turned the tables and asked the boys of their choice to the dance. 60 THE MEN ' S SENATE OFFICERS President DAVE DUNDORE Vice-President JIM ZANGRILLI Secretary-Treasurer BILL JONES The Men ' s Senate, composed of representatives of each of the four classes, has functioned throughout the year under the capable leadership of its president, Dave Dundore. The Senate serves not only to enforce the Freshman rules and the rules of the men ' s dormitory, but also deals with problems concerning the betterment of dormitory life. Some examples are the establishment of adequate parking facilities, improvements in the dorm, and the promotion of a more friendly atmosphere among the residents. The plans this year included the production of a dorm show to be presented by the residents of the dorm for the benefit of the dormitory. Much of the success of this year ' s program can be attributed to the splendid cooperation receive d by the Senate from all the residents of the dormitory. 61 w. c. c. OFFICERS President LOIS WHITE Vice-President ALMA MARIANI Secretary-Treasurer JOAN GILBERT The Women ' s Commuter Council is the governing body for the women day students. The new advisor was Miss Constance Dent who is the Dean of Women. First on the list of events was the initiation of the Freshmen as they received an u L-Book test. After the test the Frosh entertained the Upperclassmen. In the beginning of November the W. CO participated in the annual campus activity, the County Fair. When the spirit of Christmas hovered around the corner, the girls decorated the rooms and planned for a party before vacation began. February was the month for Heart Sister Week, and also for the yearly occasion, the Valentine Dance, which was co-sponsored with the Men ' s Day Student Congress. A queen, chosen from the Day Students, reigned over the dance. 62 M. D. S. C. OFFICERS President JAY DUTWEILER Vice-President DONALD BLANKEN Secretary ROBERT BOYD Treasurer DONALD HEDGECOCK The Men ' s Day Student Congress is the governing body of the Association of Men Day Stu- dents of Lebanon Valley College. This association is the largest of the four student organiza- tions on our campus. The purpose of the Congress is to promote cooperation and harmony among the male day students. A large part of the activities of the Congress are the disciplinary actions taken during the indoctrinary period for Freshmen. Such actions are more difficult to enforce among the day- students than among the dormitory students because of the looser ties between men of the association. However, several freshman violators were brought before the Congress in the past year. The Congress also acted on such issues as parking problems, wearing of dinks to dances, etc. The Congress, together with the W. C. C, sponsors a dance each year which is one of the highlights of the social activities of the day students. The dance is usually in February and is called the Valentine Dance. 63 pi ; CLIONIAN LITERARY SOCIETY OFFICERS President JANE LUTZ Vice-President JULIA THATCHER Secretary LOIS ADAMS Corresponding Secretary JOAN RINGLE Treasurer GERALDINE NICHOLS New ideas and activities were the goals set by the members of the Clionian Literary Society, the oldest of the Women ' s Literary Societies. Rush Week was Erst on the calendar of events. The Freshman girls were invited on a hike to become acquainted with the members of the society. The Frosh were also invited to the annual Clio Tea held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Bender. The Sophomores then decided, that as a part of their initiation, the new Chonian members should help to clean and redecorate the room recently founded as a place in which the Philo- Clio Societies can hold their business meetings. Clio also participated in the County Fair program which is a traditional campus event. During the year a play was presented by a cast chosen from both societies. The year was successfully completed with the annual dinner-dance held by Clio and her brother society, Philo. 64 PHI LAMBDA SIGMA OFFICERS President ROBERT HOFFSOMMER Vice-President DONALD HEDGECOCK Corresponding Secretary DONALD KREIDER Recording Secretary WILLIAM KELLY Treasurer CHARLES BLAICH Chaplain ALLISON STELLA During its eighty-fifth year Philo is continuing th rough its constitutional change. When Philo emerges from this transition it will be a stronger, more unified society than ever before in its history. The new constitution will make Philo a social organization with emphasis on brother- hood. During the present year, along with its sister society, Clio, has presented successfully a pep rally — block dance, a comedy in three acts So This Is London, and a private party for their members. Through the co-operation of the administration, the joint societies have obtained a new social hall which will be decorated and furnished during the year. During the remainder of the year Philo plans to hold a stag night and a joint society night. The culmination of the year ' s activities will come with the Philo-Clio week-end which will include the dedication of the new hall and the joint dinner-dance. 65 DELPHIAN LITERARY SO CIETY OFFICERS President ELIZABETH BEITTEL Vice-President DOROTHY WITMER Recording Secretary GRACE MOHN Corresponding Secretary BARBARA RANCK Treasurer WILMA STAMBACH Five foot two, eyes of blue, has anybody seen my gal? This tune swept the campus as the Delphian Initiates donned the garb of the 20 ' s, and once again became Flappers for a day. This was highhghted by an original show featuring those gorgeous gals with such never to be for- gotten songs as Moonlight Bay. Rushing season was carried on in its traditional fashion with the entire society hiking to the Quittie stream and attending an afternoon tea in Delphian Hall. Thus with another year successfully underway, Delphian had again become the leading women ' s social organization on campus; her membership increased to nearly one hundred. Identifying our girls in all the phases of college life are our new sharp, white blazers, navy sport jackets, and of course the simple but good looking AA2 pins. As always the long awaited highlight of the society season was K-D weekend held early in March. Beginning with a combined societies play Friday night, the festivities were climaxed Saturday evening with a formal dinner and dance held at the Brunswick Hotel in Lancaster. At this time Delphian with her brother society Kalo, picked a queen to reign over the dance. The evening shall long be remembered as an enjoyable one. Leadership and capable guidance are the qualities necessary for the success of any organiza- tion. This was more than exemplified by the President Liz Beittel who again made Delphian one of the leading societies on campus. 66 KALOZETEAN LITERARY SOCIETY OFFICERS President JAMES ZANGRILLI Vice-President JOSEPH SHEMETA Recording Secretary PAUL ALEPA Corresponding Secretary ALBERT CARELLI Treasurer ROBERT TARANTOLO Chaplain GEORGE KNOBL Sergeant-At-Arms NICHOLAS BOVA Kappa Lambda Sigma, better known as Kalo, had an extremely productive year. After their first smoker which lacked nothing but enthusiasm, Kalo reared its head and started on the right path toward another successful year. The attendence of meetings increased 90% due to an amendment to the constitution whereby any member missing 3 regularly scheduled meetings was considered delinquent. Kalo and its sister society sponsored a big weekend which broke the winter monotony from mid-term to spring. The play The Silver Whistle presented by Kalo-Delphian starring Armen Banklian with Barbara Ranck and David Dundore who furnished the romantic scenes only hinted at what a swelligant time everyone was to have the following evening. Thirty-five new members were accepted and initiated this past year. One odd thing that happened was that last year ' s two top officers just switched positions. Possibly the high spot of the fall season was the program put on in Engle Hall by Kalo and sister Delphian featuring the environment of 1924. Remember the chorus line and cheerleaders? 67 THE KNIGHTS OF THE VALLEY OFFICERS Lord of the Castle ED TESNAR Lord High Steward FRED SAMPLE Scribe . STERLING STRAUSE Keeper of the Monies WILLIAM JONES Friar ROBERT TARANTOLO Keeper of the Gate SHERDELL SNYDER The Knights of the Valley, serving this year under the Lord of the Castle, Ed Tesnar, have furthered their purpose of promoting fellowship and good will. In this, their second year of organization, the Knights have proven their worth by their contribution to all campus activities and the promotion of a better college spirit. During the year many social activities were held, which not only served as entertainment for the members, but also afforded an opportunity for the advancement of fellowship. Through the sale of Christmas cards, funds were raised for the annual dinner dance which climaxes the year ' s activities. 68 LA VIE STAFF Editor BETTY BAKLEY Faculty Advisors Associate Editor in charge of Sports Associate Editor . .

On stage and behind the scenes are those interested in acting, make-up, scenery, directing, set construction or writing. In October Wig and Buckle saluted prospective members with two skits, The Monkey ' s Paw and Tea Pot on the Rocks, which brought forth some new talent, student produced and student directed. The billboards acclaimed The Glass Managerie as the first of the two major productions of the year and advertised it as the story of a crippled girl from a socially prominent Southern family. Her psychological maladjust- ment led her to worship one of several glass ornaments she had collected and later a young man who finally jilted her. The highlights of the second semester news exploited the last major production. Last year Hamlet held this honor with a New York cast and supporting roles from Wig and Buckle. With Dr. George Struble and Professor Theodore Keller as its advisors and critics Wig and Buckle has the headlines in dramatic entertainment. 70 71 72 OFFICERS MATH -PHYSICS CLUB President Vice-President . . .

GEORGE CURFMAN Treasurer GLENN DIETRICH Vice-President . . . PHYLLIS BARNHART Voluntary student Christian groups have been a part of college life since the founding of the first colleges in America. During Colonial days these groups were small secret societies for mutual conversation and assistance in spiritual things. By 1856 there were religious societies in 70 of the 200 colleges and seminaries in America. Our S.C.A. arose from the merger of Y.M.C.A. and Y.W.C.A. two years ago to create a more compact and workable group than the former independent cabinets of the two groups. The Student Christian Association on campus plays an important part in the religious and social aspects of college life. Upon enrolling in the College each student automatically becomes a member of the S.C.A. The purpose is best expressed in the preamble: We the members of the Student Christian Association of Lebanon Valley College, in order to provide for a coordinated program of religious and social activities, to advance the welfare and common interests of the students of the College, establish this Constitution. The organization has an executive committee of a President, Vice-President for Men, Vice- President for Women, a Secretary, a Treasurer, and sub-chairmen such as for Fellowship Hour, Music, Social, Bible Study, Inter-collegiate, Inter-Church, Publicity, Special Services, Campus Chest, Calendar, Sunday School, and four commissions — Christian Heritage, Personal and Cam- pus Affairs, Social Responsibility, an d World Relatedness. Professor Carl Ehrhart is advisor. In the course of this year it sponsored Freshman Week, Campus Chest Drive, County Fair, Parents Week-end, International Week-end, weekly Fellowship Hour, and special services and activities around holidays. The S.C.A. is an organization of all students, and seeks to advance the welfare and common interests of the students and the college through a deeper faith in God. 79 LIFE WORK RECRUITS OFFICERS President BERNARD FOGLE Vice-President ROBERT DAUGHERTY Secretary RUTH SHAEFFER Treasurer GOLDEN GAITHER R.D.C RUTH M. STAMBACH CONSERVATORY OF MUSIC MISS GILLESPIE Because of her unselfish and loyal devotion to the students and the school she has won the high esteem of students and faculty. Her high integrity as a teacher and her dedication to the ideal of giving Music to the world has and will continue to be a challenge to us. 81 COLLEGE BAND Yea-a-a Band! This cheer heard at every football game gave evidence of the enthusiasm created by the snappy Blue and Whites — the Lebanon Valley marching band. Sparked by the majorettes, the band added zest and excitement to every game by their intricate, colorful formations carefully worked out each week. Concerts given in the spring showed the high degree of musical interpretations attained by the band. 82 GLEE CLUB The lights grew dimmer — all talking ceased and the director raised the baton expectantly — a song was born! Yes, a song was born in the hearts of the Glee Club members, in the heart of the director and in the hearts of the listeners who thrilled to the music created for and given to them. This atmosphere was evident at the many concerts given by the Glee Club directed by Mr. Rutledge. Climaxing the year ' s concerts was the annual tour of many cities in Pennsylvania and Mary- land, including Washington, D. C, where the Glee Club demonstrated its fine quality with numbers such as Song of America, Go Down Death, and The Battle Hymn of the Republic. 83 SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA Good music, shared responsibilities, hard work and fun — that ' s what symphony means to its members. There are the routine weekly rehearsals. Then there ' s the shiver that goes up your spine before going on the stage to play. Next is Mr. Rutledge with his humorous manner and patient attitude. The symphony gave its annual program in the spring. Thus another year of work and excitement for the symphony ended. But more than these simple things will remain in the memory of its members. They will always remember the loyalty and devotion to an ideal of cooperation and to the creation of beautiful music which characterized the members and its leader. 84 CHORUS Our thanks to Dr. Lara Hoggard, one of the finest directors in the U. S., now assistant to Fred Waring, for the inspiring moments given to us. His ability as a director was equaled by his ability to charm everyone with his magnetic personality. The L.V. chorus is grateful for the experience of performing the Song of America in its spring concert under the direction of Dr. Hoggard.

FOOTBALL 1952 On the eve of September 21, prior to the opening game of the 1951 football season with a strong F. and M. team, boasting a long winning streak and an undefeated 1950 season, the outlook on the Lebanon Valley campus was one of uncertainty. The team was small in quantity but in pre-season scrimmages they showed they were well endowed with quality and plenty of scrap. The team was up for the game because they wanted to win it for a former teammate who was stricken with that dreaded disease of the blood, leukemia. They were intent on winning it for Chuck Maston. The next day a good-sized contingent of Valley rooters traveled to Lancaster and saw Coach Ricker ' s proteges play an inspired game and rock the Dips by a 25-6 score. It was a heads-up game from the Valley standpoint; they capitalized on every break, converting 2 of F. and M. ' s five fumbles into T.D. ' s, blocking a kick and intercepting 5 passes, and showing a well-coached team all around. The more experienced F. and M. team outgained them on the ground, in the air, and had more first downs but just couldn ' t dent the Valley line when they got inside the Dutchmens ' 20 yard line. The Valley line play was superb throughout the whole game. Lou Sorrentino accounted for 122 of the Dutchmens ' 182 yards total offense by com- pleting 7 of 9 passes for 79 yards and running 43 more himself. He also threw one T.D. pass and scored two himself. In the closing minutes of the game John Buffamoyer showed his power when he intercepted a pass and roared 25 yards to score. After the game Co-capts. Fred Sample and Ed Tesnar took the autographed game ball down to Chuck which really climaxed a dramatic opening game. The following week the Dutchmen traveled to Indiantown Gap and received their first setback at the hands of a huge, experienced Red Devil team. Boasting many former big-time college stars and a few pros, the Gap expected another one-sided victory and were finally content to emerge with a 12-7 victory. There were no individual LV stars in this game but the boys, up against really tough opposition, showed up well but couldn ' t quite get rolling in the clutches. Lebanon Valley ' s lone T.D. was scored on a pass from Sorrentino to Joe Oxley covering 20 yards. Inaugurating their home season against the Mules of Muhlenberg College, the Dutchmen bounced back into the win column with a 12-6 victory. Muhlenberg had a great defensive club and were well ahead of the Valley in statistics in every department but the score and penalties. They gained 14 first downs to LV ' s 7, had a total of 293 yards against 189 for the Valley in total offense. All the scoring in the game was done on passes with Sorrentino completing passes to Joe Oxley and Don De Benedett for 25 and 78 yards respectively. Muhlenberg finally countered 92 in the fourth period with a 47 yard aerial for their lone T.D. This game was disastrous to the small Valley team because first stringers Nick Bova, a rock on the defense, Bob Gustin, another good lineman, and junior-flash Ted Lauer had to leave the game because of injuries. The Upsala Vikings were next on the docket of conguest and the LV boys emerged with an easy 14-0 victory. The ball game was played sloppily by both sides; LV losing the ball six times on fumbles and Upsala having six passes intercepted. Bob Enders, the Freshman booter twice raced around the end for gains of more than twenty yards and gave the Valley something to cheer about. Defensively Sherdell Snyder had a field day at his defensive end post by throwing the runner or passer for long losses at least 10 times. George Cardone found the range and neatly booted two extra points. In the closing minutes Walt Shonosky grabbed an Upsala pass and bulled his way for twenty-five yards and a touchdown. The next victim was a hapless Moravian club, whom the Flying Dutchmen flew over for a 40-0 score. Everybody saw action in this game. Assistant coach and scout Dick Fox had their every play mapped out to perfection and conseguently Moravian could only garner 114 yards as their total offense while LV rolled up 485. Lou Sorrentino threw three T.D. passes to Bill Sawyer, Frank Retrievi, and Don De Benedett and scored one himself. When his passing hand was injured for awhile, Co-capt. Freddy Sample whipped another T.D. pass to George Radanovic. Walt Shonosky showed some nice running in getting 89 yards on 1 1 tries. Ralph Giordano, leading ground-gainer, garnered another 63 on 14 tries and Bob Enders got 53 yards on 7 tries. The Dutchmen showed a polished and crushing ground attack and hit on 16 of 26 passes to show superiority in the air also. This game also marked the return to the lineup of Dan McGary who missed one and a half seasons due to a brain concussion received in his freshman year. He was used sparingly but had some great defensive work to his credit. Co-capts. Ed Tesnar and Fred Sample played their usual brilliant defensive game as did Joe Ferrer and Frank DeAngelis. Taking their three-game winning streak to Reading the boys beat a really fighting Albright team 7-6 in a thrilling dream type of ball game. The final margin of victory was made possible on George Cardone ' s perfect extra-point kick, following Sorrentino ' s toss to Fred Sample for the T.D. The game according to statistics was an even as could be with LV getting 13 first downs to 12 for the Lions; the Albright team rolling up 274 yards to the Valley ' s 250 in total offense. The first half saw LV ahead, by benefit of their T.D. pass, 7-0 and the second half scoring was taken care of by Albright, who heaved a long T.D. pass for a score in the third guarter. This gave LVC a log of five wins against one defeat and also an undefeated record against collegiate com- petition. The Dutchmen, still fresh from their victory over Albright traveled to Chester to play the Cadets of Pennsylvania Military College. Not only did they have the soldiers to battle but also old man weather, who turned out to welcome the Valley with a freezing cold day and a field saturated with water. Nevertheless the Valley came away from the waterpolo game with a 15-6 victory. The Cadets scored in the first three minutes of play on a long pass but were throttled from then on. Don De Benedett and Fred Sample each gained over 125 yards on the ground. Following that the Green Terrors from Western Maryland came to town and trimmed the Dutchmen 20-12. Both teams were undefeated in college competition and it was scheduled to be a great game. In the early moments of the game, Ralph Giordano rocked W. Md. ' s star, Mitch Tullai, on a bone crushing tackle after the latter had received a punt and Tullai had to be removed from the game. W. Md., perhaps playing for revenge roared back and went on to win, scoring three times in ten minutes in the third guarter. Traveling to Huntingdon the Valley engaged the Juniatians in the teeth of a biting snow storm and scalped them to the tune of 34—0. Coach Ricker took the wraps off a new sensation in Ted Lauer, transfer Junior from Potomac State, who had been sidelined most of the year with a dislocated shoulder. Ted exhibited some really shifty running and played a great game on defense. Ralph Giordano finally broke the ice and scored his hrst T.D. of the year in the second guarter on a nice 11 yard run. Thanksgiving Day of 1951 will never be forgotten by Valley fans and players as they journeyed to Johnson City, Tennessee to play in the Annual Burley Bowl game. However the Golden Eagles of Morris Harvey were a little too hot for the Dutchmen and dumped them 27-20. Morris Harvey jumped off to a 27-7 lead but the Dutchmen caught fire and roared back with two T.D. ' s. It was a great rally, capturing the hearts of all the fans, and fell just one touchdown short. Lou Sorrentino played a great game, completing 18 out of 30 passes and scoring two T.D. ' s and throwing for another one. The Eagles were loaded with talent, boasting two Little AU-Americans, more age, and more experience. The game was considered by the Burley Bowl Committee as the best one played to date — a fine credit to the team, coaching staff, managers, and fans — a fitting climax to the greatest year in Lebanon Valley football history. 93 BOB GUSTIN— Junior from Steelton . . .

The complete record showed an 18-4 count. The team as a whole averaged 76.3 points for the 22 game span. The only losses were inflicted by Albright 75-77, Muhlenberg 82-86, Elizabethtown 68-70, and Gettysburg 72-77.

Leading the J. V. ' s were Noel Beebe and Ted Lauer. Kenny Ellis and Buzz Sachs also played con- sistent ball throughout the year. Rounding out the squad were Bob Tarantolo, Howard Kosier, Mark Wise, and Bob Handley. 100 i.Jtrm ; . , %,t BASEBALL 1951 The 1951 baseball season showed the Valley coming away with a 9-5 record. Impressive victories were scored over La Salle and Temple. The season ' s opener showed the boys coming out on the short end of a 4-3 encounter with St. Josephs. Rebounding from the loss, the team overwhelmed Juniata 12-3. This seemed to have a stabilizing effect on the squad as they defeated Gettysburg 8-4, the Scranton U. 9-4. In the following game Albright knocked them off by a 6-3 count at Reading. The batting honors for the year went to Chuck Zimmerman, Mark Heber- ling, and Bob Tarantolo. The complete schedule was as follows: L.V.C. OPPONENT 3 St. Josephs 4 12 Juniata 3 8 Gettysburg 4 9 . ... ..... . Scranton 4 3 Albright 6 2 La Salle , 4 Moravian 2 10 Temple 6 4 Elizabethtown r 3 2 Franklin Marshall 3 8 Elizabethtown 4 3 Albright 13 3 Juniata 4 Moravian 11 101 TRACK 1951 The track team, coached by Warren Gockley, showed a season ' s record of no wins, but that was not indicative of the calibre of the team. It was the start of a good track team for future years. Records were set by Don Kreider in the 120-yard high hurdles and Don De Bened ett in the javelin throw. Also good times were turned in by Barret Oxley in the half-mile, mile, and 2-mile events. The team lost to Franklin Marshall, Juniata, Albright, and Gettysburg. 102 HOCKEY 1951 The 1951 hockey season closed with a record of four solid hits and one miss for the Flying Dutch Girls under the coaching of Mrs. E. J. Smith. We pay special tribute to the girls who par- ticipated in the Mid-East and National tournaments. This year was a big one for the hockey girls because of the score they made for LVC by entertaining eight other college teams at the All-College tournament. Chosen, among others, to represent the Central Pennsylvania team were Libby Roper, Jeanne Hutchinson, Elaine Barron and Evelyn Eby. These girls traveled to Rochester, New York where the Mid-Eastern tournament was held. There Jeanne Hutchinson was named a candidate for the National hockey team which played in Boston, Massachusetts. Because of their hard hitting technique the Flying Dutch Girls have made a national name for themselves.

Yet, how else is one to describe the hard-working holler-guys and gals of LVC — the cheerleaders. Sociologists say a group be- comes a crowd through interstimulation and response. We ' ve got to give it to them, our cheer- leaders have caused a great deal of the stimulation necessary to bring about organized cheering. Working up a sweat at all home games and only missing one away football game, these kids gave up the privilege of seeing a whole football game. They work very hard in pre-season practice also. They made another step forward this year. The constitution was revised and recognized by the Student-Faculty council and the Faculty to finally become an organization. As in the past several years the cheerleaders were toasted at a banguet given by their capable advisor, Mrs. Smith. Letter awards were given at that time to those serving two years on the sguad. Those receiving letters were Darlene Moyer and Paul Holhgan. The three freshmen members chosen from a very large group of candidates displayed the zip and dash expected of them and blended well in helping to make the squad the greatest in the annals of LVC. The Squad — Jeanne Hutchinson, Senior, Lee Whiteman and Captain Johnnie Walter, Juniors, Darlene Moyer and Paul Holligan, Sophomores, Betsy Ross, Jane Taylor and Dick Williams, Frosh. 107 WAA OFFICERS President ELIZABETH ROPER Vice-President ELAINE BARRON Secretary DOROTHY WITMER Treasurer RUTH STAMBACH LCLUB OFFICERS President NICHOLAS BOVA Vice-President ....
