I am sure this man did not forget his student days because he remained a student throughout his long life. That is what every college graduate should do. For four years you received a brief and sketchy introduction to the world in which we all must live. Commencement, which is both an end and a be- ginning, concluded a happy period in your life and began another that should be long and useful, with the possibility of greater happiness than any- thing yet experienced. But if this wise man did not forget his student days, what did he forget? One thing is certain, he forgot his prejudices. These had been many and powerful. They had led him into conduct which brought torture and death to many whom he hated. If you have prejudices, forget them. Your Alma Mater has done its best to help you do this. I am sure that this man forgot his past failures. They were numerous according to his own state- ments. Forgetting past failures is the first step in pressing forward. Time and energy consumed in remembering one's failures is a handicap which you Four Baker University, B.A., 1906 Yale University, M.A., 1910 St. Lawrence University, LL.B., 1933: I.S.D., 1934 Instructor in English Literature, De Pauw University, 1909-1909 Acting Professor Economics and Sociology, Cornell College, 1910-1911.

Doubtless, all of you could remem- ber some failures in your college days but, don't do it. Forget them. This wise man made mistakes. They were many and grievous. He was like everybody else in this respect but it was a part of his wisdom that he de- termined to forget them. Having done his best to make amends for his errors, he forgot them and pressed forward. It is impossible to build a suc- cessful life on the haunting memories of past mis- takes. Once again-forget them. I-Iowever, there is a memory that should remain with you always-the memory of your Alma Mater. Twenty-five years in her life is but a day that is gone. She is immortal. Men may come and men may go but she lives on forever. I-Ier life can be rich, joyous and successful only as her sons and daughters cherish her. When her children triumph -she triumphs. When they succeed-she glories in their success and with them presses forward to greater deeds and accomplishments in the years which are to come. jog oo' oval al of My Iwi? ,jjfl ihel Q, we for G liotflou UW JGY . 901- worf dw rot Pllzlhlwe I jlo ll 'Yao 7 t ih iiilov Vondel gal eferdsel In moot i You will in hiudmg your W oh io Your U tt. o wi h1oW1U,4 not owtilefs Sl Q comes, This is the 5 joooolllpfw Pjooooiwhifi goluoie, ls W od old nosldlgll toot into Your I jo do not WOR tlou reioeml lolioooj 0011154 reooios thot o which lt hos often fjoor life.

You skim through its leaves and all the dates seem to merge into a constant stream of black and red. Almost unconsciously you stop at the page marked September 1951 and quickly scan the numbers until Monday the 24th stands out before your eyes. You gaze at this date for a few moments and your memory begins its phenomenon of flashback. You lay the calendar down and stare into space. Monday, September 24 . . . the day which began your senior year. You enter school this morning feeling a little more proud than you did on past opening days. You think about the future and what it will mean to you a year from now. You wonder how it will feel to prepare for commence- ment exercises instead of making arrangements for another summer vacation. You walk into yourifirst class and you want everyone, including your instructor, to know that this year is the home- stretch in your college career. You look forward to the days ahead, knowing that there will not be as much work as in past semesters since it is an unwritten law that seniors do not fail courses. This is the year for which you have been waiting. The first month passes and you cannot wait to receive the piece of parchment which says, in elegant Latin, that you are a college graduate. As time wears on, however, your anxiety mellows and old nostalgia invades your emotions, creeping from your breast into your throat. lt is now that you realize that possibly you do not want to bid farewell to the old University after all. You remember how worried you were that you would fail many courses, but you would not trade all the pleasant memories that went hand-in-hand with the worrying for all the A's which you did not receive. lt has often been iterated that college days are the best of your life. You recall laughing at this bromide but now that the time is quickly approaching for you to leave this special period of life you realize that there is more truth to this state- ment thanyou ever thought there could possibly be. You remember how often you envied your friends who were work- ing. After they were finished with their tasks of the day they went home with their evenings free. You, then, were faced with that unrnanageable chore of homework which you never seemed quite able to tame. Many weekends were also dedi- cated to this cause. Now you see things in a different light. You realize how much your friend who never attended college should envy you. The discussions with your instructors, coffee klatching in Iigg's and Smitty's, the socials, the bull-sessions in the lounges and even the exams during which time more water fell than from the Niagara Falls, are so imbedded in your memory that they will never be weeded out. You smile, recalling the times you practically had to beg some of your instructors to give you the passing mark which you honestly knew you did not deserve. When this pleading took place, a D instead of Five ...l952... 'in.RevieW G I an F seemed a very important matter in your life. As you look back on those incidents you realize that they constituted a very tiny ripple on the ever-flowing stream of troubles and worries. Recalling your senior year, certain in- cidents stand out in your mind like a mountain rising out of a valley. lt seems like only yesterday that you heard that Dr. Tristram Walker Metcalfe passed away. Although you never had a per- sonal acquaintance with the Dean and E. ' .. li 5 his N --fitti- '. r lv' 'f txrl ls -ls . A wxk ' is ,jg --A gf' Q ,ff L. : - Lv- . . r r - r H BH Fir . .

You attended the University for only four years. He had been part of it for 20. lt is more appropriate to say that the University was part of Dr. Metcalfe for 20 years. The evening you attended the funeral service drifts into mind and you hear the address given by the pastor of the church as for the first time. You never realized it before, but that night you knew that Dr. Metcalfe's loss to the Uni- versity could never fully be replaced and, in the words of the pastor, that LIU is a monument to him. This is as much a truism as any that has ever been uttered. His loss was perhaps the biggest tragedy of the year and now, much later, it is still significant. There are other events which stand out in your mind, On certain minor incidents your mind is rusty, but others you can still vividly recall. You cannot remember the exact date, but the news that the University was instituting classes on the Davies Estate gave you an elated feeling even though it would never directly effect you. You then began to wish that it might have been better had you been born five years later so that you could be part of this new luxurious branch. True, the new division was opened for classes this semester, but only for residents of Nassau and Suffolk counties. Imagine acr-es and acres of rolling hills, a field house. dorms, extensive science laboratories and all the other facili- ties that are generally associated with an out-of-town uni- versity. And what this new branch would do for LlU's reputation! One of the things which means a great deal in judging colleges and universities is the amount of land that the school owns. These 173 acres give the University the most complete campus in the Metropolitan area, if not in the nation. Born five years to soon! You can still recall the campus of the University when you first entered LIU. Your English class was over a bowling alley, your History class was perched atop a bar and grill, your Philosophy lectures were held in the Y, and so it went. ln one full day of classes you covered enough territory in the downtown section of Brooklyn to rate it a top-flight tour. This year, however, the University finally became centralized, with its migration to the Paramount building. lt was metamor- phasis in every sense of the word, with the seniors the only group that was really able to appreciate it. Two entire floors for the library alon-e, new laboratories and even cr short-lived student cafeteria greeted the undergraduates in this new home. But the most important aspect-it was home! The only real beefs you had concerned the elevators, but you realized that Rome was not built in a day and you pa- tiently waited for the two new elevators to be put into use. You finger the calendar again. How times flies! Remember the incredible Tustin Affair that occurred in October. This was one time that you gritted your teeth and felt like crashing into the English office demanding an explanation. You can still recall sitting in his class amazed at the way he brought the characters in the novels to life. His easy-going manner kept you entranced and you often wondered why some of the other instructors did not mimic him. What is perhaps equally important was how, after class he readily discussed whatever problems the students might have. These discussions not only revolved around the subject but more Six .xl ,. 4 3 5 iffrrtm' l ttf! 0' lfgdwwi iifwf, wr gi lilrltlwmef ilg lwa . if hadbew trite .35i', homlllf mm! fi lla im wr!!! fi Ml .1 W!!! - ec EW . 5 mqoflll :ii 1 Qofeifl 4 . .ts fwfiiwft 0' ls! u torl!10'!9!!!!! dwaepu ii 65,6 Emjbonowed C lfidwvitg up if ight this dm? whde fm fists mm' Your own W tall!!

You recall very clearly the battle which en- sued. Prof. james Foster claimed that Howard Iustin, along with instructors Sheldon Kranz and Seymour Knopf, was released because of a drop in the University's enrollment. This alibi was quickly riddled when the official figures showed that LlU's population increased. Also, the fact that a new instructor had been hired made the English depart- ment head's excuse sound like just so much air escaping from the lungs. justin meanwhile, stated that Prof. Foster's move was arbitrary and that there was really no reason for firing him. Although there were many students backing each party, it seemed to you that the majority was supporting the fired instructor. lt was not easy to determine whether this belief was sincere or just a natural tendency to uphold the underdog, but at least it was very nourishing food for thought. The name of Dr. Francesco Cor- dasco also crept into this matter. Seawanhaka claimed that he refused to return a letter which he had borrowed containing information pertinent in cleaning up the mess. Dr. Cordasco naturally denied this charge and it was not too long after that the whole affair began to fade from the Uni- versity's memory. Your own memory snaps back to the present. You light up a cigarette and as the smoke drifts leisurely from your lips your mind once again floats back to the past. Many new faces were seen in the University during the year in new positions. Dr. William Hudson was named Dean and Acting President. You recall that many students were very surprised when Dr. Hudson was appointed to this post, not because he was not capable but because he never exhibited the warmth so necessary for the job. Previously he was the Director of Students and, in this position, he learned the inside workings of the University. Associated with LIU for many, many years he realized the problems of the student and was well versed in handling them. Sitting behind his desk, almost directly across the corridor from Dr. Metcalfe's office, Dr. Hudson was constantly besieged with requests from many of the students. just by looking at their faces after they had a talk with him it was an easy matter to detect if their wishes were granted. You remember hearing that he rarely ever complied with the wi.shes of the undergraduates and, undoubtedly, it was such baseless statements that were the founda- tion for his unpopular reputation. As Dr. Hudson moved up in the Administration Mr. Bertram G. Knowles, 35 years old and an ex- army major, was given his old task. You recall how delighted most of the student body was when they heard the news of the new appointment. To your way of thinking this jubilant feeling sprung from Seven two very intportant facts. First, l.fr, Knowles was brought in from the outside and he undoubtedly' brought with a wealth of new ideas. Since the ideas of those connected with a University for any length of time tend to go stale, lffr. Knowles thoughts, like a shot in the arm, would undoubtedly benefit the students greatly. The other underlying reason, so important, stems from the fact that the new director of students is only 25 years of age. For this reason he is likely to have a greater understanding of student prob- lems since it was not too long ago that he himself encountered many of these same difficulties. Also since he is of a closer age to the student he will You drag on your cigarette and your thoughts turn to the student activities. A wry smile creases your features now, because outside of the normal functions there were only two new innovations that touched the population of the University directly. The more important of these revolved around the ratification of a Constitution and the formation of a Student Council. For almost four years the stu- dent did not have a voice in how their affairs should be run. A group picked from practically all the or- ganizations was formed to compile a document that would let the students obtain their objective. After probably act more syrnpathetically and bend over backwards in order to aid the student. However there was one piece of news concern- ing the departure of one of the faculty which made you a little depressed-the death of Prof. William Shannon, Music department chairman. Prof. Shan- non's passing came suddenly. He suffered a para- lytic stroke and within a weeks time he succumbed. ' 'iifij T f . '4 . 'L Prof. Shannon was known as a regular guy. He was always willing to discuss problems with the student and exhibited a profound interest in the University, At the time that LTU was movina from the Sclierrrierhorn street building he was fran- tically soarciiiria for adequate auarters for his de- rartrrrerit. lt was then that he told us the 'inside :2tor', f cf r.-.fliy tire University did not purchase the iircclzlyri rf'-.nxxaffiziy llusic.

Seawanhakot came out against it, claiming that there were too many questionable points. The two main objections the paper had were that the proposed constitution opened the way for censoring the press and that the Committee who formulated the document should not be allowed to become the Interim Student Council with all power of the Constitution given to it. The Committee retaliated by claiming that the new document would not censure the paper and that it should be allowed to become the lnterim Council in order to run the elections and to explain the workings of the Constitution to the first group of elected officials. The students in voting however, disagreed with Seawanhaka and the new constitution was ratified. This was the greatest step forward that the student body made as a whole since Dr. Metcalfe declared the last student elections null and void in fxfay l949.

Ira Greifer, and the election of Iames A. Rogers to the seat. A new group of officials have just been elected to office and starting next semester they will allocate funds and have a great deal to say on the over-all activities of the students. lt is unfortunate that you will not be in the University to appreciate this new innovation but the old bromide about time and tide tand Graduation, you hopeb has found its mark, The other new innovation, or lack of one, was the Metropolitan basketball scene sans LlU repre- sentation. lt seemed odd when you read the papers or attended the Garden games that LIU was not branded across the chests of some of the players. You remember how, in the past, you went to the games and cheered your head off every time an- other point was added to the University score. You looked forward to the bull-sessions concerning the best players and teams in the city and, no matter who was designated to the top slot, LIU always ranked 'way up there. However, last year's l'fix took care of all of that. This semester there was no yelling and write- ups. The LIU banner no longer hung from the rafters in Madison Square Garden and the old section was occupied with fans from other schools. instead of a powerful Varsity squad the University depended on a Iayvee team instead. ltwas made up of players who were either freshmen or sophomores and, al- though you realized that it was not good school spirit, you never attended any of the games. Where, in past years the corridor in front of the Bursar's office was filled with students hoping to purchase tickets, this year it was conspicuously empty. There was no such a thing as a discount book and there was no reason to have National lnvitation Tourna- ment hopes. You believed, however, that the Ad- ministration did the right thing in banning the sport. lt would remove the illusion from outsiders that LlU was a basketball factory after-all and no matter what happened the court game must go on. You would not hear the slurs that so often filled you: ears in the past and all the critics would be forced to admit their rnisinterpretations, Such words would fall upon you with the greatest delight. For next season the Administration announced that, once again, there would be no Varsity basket- ball game. This will include the banning of the layvee squad as well. There was some adverse criticism to this but most of the undergraduates took it in stride without balking. This attitude was very gratifying to you. Other events pass through your memory very quickly and you do not ponder on them for any length of time. You remember the time you went to a frat dance fthe name escapes youi and the great time that you had. lt was a lot of fun being some- where with your fellow students besides school and you planned on attending similar events in the future. Although the Workshop Theater presented only one play, they performed in their usual fine manner and it was disappointing that you could not see more of their work. The Readers' Club likewise put on some very pleasing performances and you real- ized that the acting groups in the University are quite talented. lf and when the University purchases a theater to house future performances you wonder how these groups can help but build a reputation well known throughout the city, if not the nation. You hang the calendar back upon the wall. You start to walk away slowly and firmly decide that all in all it was a good year. There were moments when you felt like pulling your hair out or thought that an injustice was being done, but these were only petty incidents amongst the great strides for- ward. l952 will always be remembered for the official opening of the Paramount building, the starting of classes on the Davies Estate at Oyster Bay. the passing away of Dr. Metcalfe and the ratification of a Student Constitution. But most of all it will always be remembered as your senior year. -if- hi -- - . , . . - . - ' L r Q. -' - . :L 'tg - P 1:-:iz - : 'A Lc ' 5 l i- .f y ' :gl Jlyjgigfifiggi, .., e was H. - ,'0' ,.,,-.NH ., ::1-:-:.,,:Si --- M- K Q 1 -A. 2L y7.. -.3 --L F' . .. 4.54f' .

These were forma- tive years for the department as well as for us. Unfortunately, the greatest change, the acquisition of the Brooklyn Paramount building, came too late to be really appreciated. The addition of the Brooklyn Paramount building to the LIU campus is a tremendous stride towards the recognition which we seek. With all the labs and lecture halls in one building, much time and energy formerly wasted during change of classes will be eliminated. The cheery blue-on-blue labs have more than adequate light tnatural and elec- tricall, a decent blower system, up-to-date equip- ment and above all, a spaciousness in which the struggling young scientist will be able to do his best work. Despite all the comforts and advances made pos- sible by the Brooklyn Paramount building, is there not one among us who will not look back with fond remembrance at the many conveniences at our disposal? Who will ever forget the thought- fulness of the Administration in supplying candles for use in our beautifully unlit labs where, many times, it lic-cazne necessary for the instructors to separate the students from those who had mistak- enly wandered in, searching for the powder room? Or who will forget the kind consideration with which the windows were kept securely locked to keep the foul fresh air from sullying the pure H23 odor of the Chem lab? Or the consummate care with which the patroons of the Bio lab kept our lobster-under-glass teach with his own namel in essence of formaldehyde, thus causing a state of arrested decomposition which would have even made the old Egyptian embalmers stand up and take notice? But the Science department, as any other de- partment, is not merely a thing of dissecting kits, test tubes and weights and pulleys, but a human quantity, peopled by instructors whom we were privileged to know and respect. Will any of us forget the subtle humor Prof. Sar- gent used in forcing us to memorize that dichlori- phenyltriclorbenzene failed miserably as a fly kill- er? Or how Prof. Wethers spent hours convincing us that those animals ruining our summers at Long Beach were Gonionemus murbachii-jellyfish! l-lowever those of us who fumbled our way through Quantitative Analysis will probably best remember those undergraduate days spent weep- ing on the shoulder of Prof. Fisher as we pointed to the remains of a broken beaker representing some 37l,Vg hours of work.

Who can forget the pleasant hours spent shoot- ing darts into swinging blocks ot Wood. The Walls of the lab in the Brooklyn Law building plus the tact that none ot our boys made the majors, bears grim testimony to our poor aim. The purpose of this ex- periment at the time was unknown, but it has since come to light that Dr. Murray is an avid dart en- thusiast. We the graduating are the last ot the hardy souls who had to commute, through the grace of God, Con Edison and George the Elevator man, from room llO6 Cin no way to be confused with the 86 street Armoryl to the dark, malodorous caverns which were the labs ot that Black Hole ot Pearl street, the Brooklyn Law building. To give lie to those who say that a scientific education has no practical value we again point to George Gallagher, who has given us the benefit of his vast knowledge -the comforting assurance that we can always make our way as elevator operators. -Nl- IN 1950-a year marked by notable advances in the numerous branches of Science-a new star was added to the universe of scientific developmentg a star created by the union of swirling nebulae from the minds of about a dozen aspiring Chemists with alchemistic propensities. They had come to the con- clusion that Chemistry students at LIU were ready to be metamorphosed into something more than just students, ready to become organized into a group of mutually beneficial associates. It was not the intention of this potential society to attempt the revision of any existing laws or theor- ies of Chemistry, but to bring together students with a common interest. The creation of a medium through which this association could exist was, in the main, the goal of the handful of student inaugu- rators of the society. There were those who were pessimistic about the outcome of this undertaking. They supported their negative attitude by citing instances of the failure of Science societies similar to the one pro- posed to take firm root in the University. Also, they stated, it would be difficult to knit Science students into an organized club unit because of individual problems preventing them from participation in extra-curricular activities. Defying these critics and portents of failure, the task of creating the Chemical Society of Long Island University was begun. The founders became the first charter members and the nucleus of the The Chemists i x 1 l l it .

LANCET, the pre-medical honor society of LlU was organized in the early years of the University and has since been in existence continuously. Thus, it is one of the oldest societies in the school. As a pre-medical society, the purpose of Lancet is to promote and to stimulate student interest in the science, ideals and ethics of medicine. Also, it tries to aid the individual student in obtaining informa- tion concerning the many branches of medical sci- ence and add prestige and influence to the reputa- tion of the University. Lancet has always worked toward the fulfill- ment of this purpose and its success in doing so in the past may be measured by its many achieve- ments. The activities of the year well illustrated these achievements. The year began with the induc- tiori of associate members into the society. The as- sociates are chosen on the basis of excellence in scholarships and character. At this ceremony there were heard many interesting talks by Faculty Advis- or, Prof. Wethers, and guest speaker Dr. Charles Tanzer, assistant professor of Biology, followed by the awarding of associate member pins and a social hour. ln addition to the guest speakers at the semi- monthly meetings each associate member also pre- sents an essay, talk or project on some phase of medicine. These talks constitute an important part of the program, for in this way each member makes an important contribution to the society and an ex- change of ideas is stimulated. A prize is awarded to the associate member presenting the best paper during the semester. Besides the presentation of papers, the program of Lancet includes a meeting devoted to the showing of a medical film and a field trip, usually to a phar- maceutical laboratory. Our final event is the annual Lancet-Anaphy debate, the winning society being chosen by faculty members acting as judges. The award to the winning society is the possession of the Anaphy-Lancet Cup for one year, the losing society pays for the engraving of the cup. Next to be presented are the Lancet keys to full members, followed by the award for the best paper. There is available to all the members a library of medical school catalogues, which includes the latest issues of every school in the United States and Canada. The members of Lancet represent some of the best pre-medical students in the University and former club members have distinguished themselves in many medical schools throughout the country. This semester once again several Lancet members have been accepted by various medical schools. Holding offices for the year were lra Greifer. l-ly Gewanter, Marion Brahm, Allan Birk and Faculty Advisor C. L. Weathers. Thirteen Lancet Anap y Tl he Actors TT used to be that only the music went 'round and 'round, but that's all changed now. Ever since its first curtain call the University Workshop Theater has been arena-staging all of its productions to go around in circles, This is how it all came about. The desire to build the first permanent theater in the history of the Uni- versity came alive three years ago. Unable to obtain a suitable neighborhood playhouse to showcase proposed theatrical productions while on Pearl Street, Speech-Theater Department Chairman Dennis Brown rolled up his sleeves and went to work with what he had. l-le proved that lack of funds and in- adequate facilities were not too great a handicap by transforming a rec- tangular roorn into an arena theater. Because theater-in-the-round provided a way to begin operations immediately, a room originally intended as an office but utilized as a lounge for women students was turned into an intimate theater featuring productions ranging in genre from a Moliere comedy of manners to a symbolic Eliot vehicle. And how the audience loved itl Seated on all sides of the actors, they ap- plauded the most completely uninhibited methods of delivery known to the theater. Only stamina and ego protect the actor from the audience, seated on an odd collection of second-hand upholstered movie seats and straight wooden chairs. The closeness of the spectators leaves the actor in an ex- tremely vulnerable position but, to date, no vegetable matter has been thrown. The LIU Workshop Theater was the first college group in the metropolitan area, and one of the early few on the east coast, to adopt arena-style staging. So Prof. Brown pushed up his sleeves. Now, replacing the organizational growing pains, there stands a mature, well-molded group of thespians. To parallel the University's expansion program in downtown Brooklyn and on the lavish Oyster Bay estate, plans were formulated for a permanent pro- cenium or conventional theater near the Paramount building. This would afford feasibility to the departmental long-range plan for weekly productions, from October through May, on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings, a schedule unequaled by any other eastern university. lf this plan becomes a reality, the Workshop will need two alternating acting colonies with separate production staffs. One group would use the circus method and the other, conventional staging. The arena productions would be utilized as a training ground for the less experienced actors, with the senior actors studying stage craft and techniques behind the procenium. There will be a certain number of positions open to student assistants, handling mail and telephone orders, selling tickets and working in the box office, on a fee basis. Some of the first playbills issued at Workshop performances stated the organizations primary objectives, all of which have been fulfilled and en- larged upon through years of spirited activities. The first . . . To serve as a practical training ground to all students in- terested in grease paint and spot lights. The second . . . To establish an active theater project capable of experi- menting with unusual plays of both the classic and contemporary type and also to introduce new and untried scripts. ,,-4 4 , ' ..1 44 T ' M.. ,, .

Prof. Brown as- tounded his colleagues with this chimercial play-whose author has disap- peared into theatrical antiquity-by purposely introducing missed cues, ill- timed entrances and back-firing props in order to teach his students and audi- ences how a troupe of itinerant medieval players would have actually done it. Using the play-within-a-play technique fan innovation for this particular comedyl the players strolled on stage carting the necessary properties, put them in place and went on to act in the tempo of medieval performers. All of the plays were originally devised for use on the regular three-sided raised stage and were adapted to the round by Prof Whose know-how fashioned imaginative, vital theater. Not only does his master craftsmanship show up in the altered scripts but it manifests itself in the unique devises and touches, or business, that mark a script tailored by Brown. One of these Brownian touches is the importation of an experienced actor to play in student productions. The director believes that the timing, movement and stage presence of the professional only can be transmitted to the amateur through observation and by performing together. Marie Donnet, who appeared with loseph Schildkraut and Eva Le Gallienne in Uncle 1-larry, was a feature player in the Family Beunion in Ianuary 1952. Earlier professionals were Gae Caulkins and Barbara Leonard in Dangerous Corner and See Naples and Die, respectively. Opening the 1951 theatrical season at LlU with I. B. Priestly's provocative Dangerous Corner, the Workshop gave eight performances of this exciting psychological melodrama, heightened by many unorthodox twists and turns. See Naples and Die celebrated the second anniversary of the college group, April 1951. Penned by Elmer Bice, this play captured the antics of American turned loose on The Continent in The Roaring Twenties but also hinted of the Fascist political intrigue then sprawning in Europe. A lack of appropriate rehearsal and ,theater space-owing to the shifting of classes during the Fall 1951 season-brought the Workshop Theater to the boards with an experimental recital style performance of T. S. Eliot's The Family Beunionf' By combining reading and acting forms with simple theatri- cal devices, members of this cast were presented with an opportunity to widen the scope of their techniques by learning to do verse-drama and choral speaking. ln an unusual type of dramatic presentation set to music, the actors performed before high wooden-slatted screens with lecterns for their scripts and plain high stools. lt was the first time the audience was seated directly before the players. ln order to stimulate a more concentrated effort on the part of the student- actors and technicians an award of statuettes, called Brownies, were pre- sented for the first time in lune 1951. They went to Maxine Schachter, Dolores Turkel, Eugene Varrone and Marvin Throne for their performances in See Naples and Die. Carrying out his intention to develop a Hplayhouse for unproduced plays, new and untried scripts and revivals of the classics, a twin-bill production of Devil Take lamie, scripted by alumnus Bruce Marcus and Systems of Dr. Tarr and Prof. Fether, an adaptation of an Edgar Allen Poe satirical classic, was presented. Marcus, who directed both plays, set his opus in an lrish provincial kitchen with a wedding occurring in an adjacent room. lt is a tale of conflicts between an aging father and his young son, lamie, who rebels against the former's way of life. The second play, another Workshop first, takes place in a progressive French insane asylum, revealing what happens to a visitor taken on a guided tour of the institution. Fifteen 'Ve 7 lf the players -tfic guest the players ln conjunction with his new-theatre-site dream Prof. Brown has ar- ranged for theater arts students to attain membership in two theatrical organ- izations, ANTA or The American National Theater and Academy and the American Educational Theater Association, AETA. Believing that the development of the Workshop would ultimately become an added source of entertainment and culture for residents of Brooklyn, Prof. Brown strongly feels that the community can be entertained and well taught through the medium of a university theater, With the presentation of Molliere's farce The Imaginary lnvalidf' in March l949, the University's first theatrical venture in more than eight years, began a line of highly successful presentations. Among the student-actors who played to the first packed house were lerome Koenig, john Ridge, Eleanor Winston, Herbert Goldsmith and Maxine Bergon. Next to be performed was William Saroyan's Across The Board on To- morrow Morning which is filled with the weird characters the author is noted for creating. Featured in this opus were Conrad Duncan, loel Stark, Don Dellair-Zeitz, Enzio Napoli and Betty Blecher. The production was staged in December of l949. A Ghosts, written by Henrik lbsen, was one of the many of the lbsen plays which have lost their initial effect as denunciatory vehicles, yet have gained a place in the theatre as skillful and provocative dramas. lt opened in May l95U with Eleanor Winston, Albert Landa, Martin Zagan, Lore Alfred- son and Herbert Goldsmith. After each play, members of the audience participate in a discussion of the evenings performance with the cast, staff and director of the play. Coffee is served with the compliments of the Workshop. Prior to his appointment at LlU, Prof. Brown worked as both actor and stage manager with the noted Pasadena Playhouse in California, the King Smith Playhouse in Washington, D.C., the CU Associates and a Warrensburg CN.Y.l stock company. He was also an actor and a radio writer with WOL CMutualD in Washington and WNYC in New York. As an army captain sta- tioned in Manila, he wrote and directed numerous service shows. Applauded widely by a host of professional theatre people, such as Show Business magazine which declared, l'LlU Workshop Theatre is a worthwhile stop on our theatre-going rounds, the group has found accept- ance in all theater circles. Show Business went on to say: Prof Brown knows how to get the best out of his performers. Prof. Brown's Speech-Theater Department started the first Speech correc- tion and language development clinic since the founding of the University in l928. Devoted to serving the college and community, the speech clinic is supervised by Miss Mary Harden. Since its inception in the fall of l95U, the clinic has served more than lUU cases, from four years of age to adults. ln conjunction with its therapeutic work in the clinic, the Speech-Theater Department is conducting a research program in Speech Correction and Language Development. The clinic also will aid the foreign students in their attempt to master the English language. The Society for the Study of Stuttering is a newly formed unit of the clinic. lt intends to establish a fund to enable boys and girls of elementary school age, unable to pay for the costly treatments, to undergo speech therapy. Speech Correction majors, in addition to doing clinical practise in speech correction at LlU, are currently engaged in a speech internship at the jewish Hospital and Sanitarium of Brooklyn, St. Vincent's Hospital and the Hospital for Special Surgery in order to observe and work with modern diagnostic and therapeutic techniques used in aiding the handicapped. -53- ft tl 1 f ,Sv 1.

Olgin I .. -. l As we, the graduating seniors of the Education department, look back on this year, we gaze with pride on a period of great productivity and activ- ity. With the Chairman of the department, Dr. lacob l-lartstein, and Dr. Phillip Olgin, who acted in an advisory capacity, the student societies presented many enriching and vital experiences in self-gov- ernment. Prof. Dennis Brown, who has garnered much praise with his Workshop Theater, and his staff from the Speech department, presented a program entitled, What Every Prospective Teacher Should Know About Speech. Together with other invalu- able information gleaned at this presentation, the members of the Education l-lonor Society, Athena, were able to study and discuss a model speech ex- amination. This added up to an extremely informa- tive and stimulating evening. Another rich vein of information was tapped when the Education Society held a meeting at which the principal of P.S. 74, Mr. Petluck, and a member of the instructorial staff spoke in connection with prep- aration for teacher license examinations in New York City. The next important gathering of the Education Society was occasioned with an address by Dr. Iacob Greenberg to the members of the department concerning the employment opportunities and elig- ibility requirements in the New York City public schools. Do not think, however, that the Education Society expressed itself only in the professional aspects of the field. A Thanksgiving Eilm Festival sponsored by Athena served as the Alumni Day program, and a sound and thoughtful program it was. Several films on Teacher Education were presented, followed by a meeting in which an alumni group was formed. Then, during the Christmas recess, a reception and dance was held for the alumni, faculty, and stu- dents. These affairs, held in the Women's Lounge, afforded enjoyable evenings for all present. The Educators l K- l One of the publications in the Education depart- ment, The Long lsland University Educator, was under the aegis of Dr. l-lartstein and edited by Mr. Barney Axelson. This publication, not only an ex- cellent professional bulletin, accomplished succinctly the job of increasing the flow of information be- tween the department and the student body. Among the newer journalistic efforts of the Edu- cation department is the Long lsland University lournal of Education. This is sponsored by the un- dergraduate students of the Education Society. lt is unnecessary to add that there is much hope held for this publication throughout the department. Before the Education Society closed the books on this years activities there was a two-day confer- ence for high school seniors, dedicated to an evalu- ation of the high school curriculum, and a conven- tion of the Education Societies from many of the East Coast schools. With this last flurry of activity the Society ended its business on an enthusiastic note with all undergraduate students eagerly await- ing future activities. Seventeen THE Merchandising Organization of LlU was founded in l94U, its functions broadly ontlined in a general constitution. At its inauguration it served a small faction of the Retailing students. An organiza- tion-both perfunctory and in want of resources- its name was yet so unknown that students in the Department of Retailing knew nothing whatever of its existence, much less of its functions. Adding to the growth pains of the infant organi- zation was the fact that students were much too pre- occupied with the hectic routine of city life to devote any appreciable amount of time or energy to its expansion. Fortunately, the men and women who piloted the MO were people of insight, people who had much to give for the realization of such vast po- tential. Much credit can be extended to the mem- bers of the faculty. They saw this growing machine as the means by which business students could extract all the advantages and benefits of extra- curricular activities, without which a college educa- tion, in its fullest and richest sense, would cease to be. Their help cannot be estimated as, indeed, energy and vitality of all founding fathers is inca- pable of measurement. Since its inception the MO has grown to its posi- tion as one of the foremost student organizations at the University. Today probably every student in the University has heard of the club and its many func- tions. Leading metropolitan newspapers and several of the business journals and trade periodicals have published its accomplishments. The original broad outline of the MO was to promote social, cultural and educational advance- ment so that students would be better prepared to enter the various business fields. An affiliation was fostered with the American Marketing Association, an international professional society. Through this association business students were afforded the chance to develop valuable professional contacts. A subscription to the Iournal of Marketing at a greatly reduced rate and access to pertinent mate- rial on careers and practices provided by national and local chapters, are now also available. The AMA also offers graduates the opportunity to be- come affiliated on an associate basis and, within a subsequent three year period, progress to regular membership. ln September l95l the MO fwith its newly elect- ed officers Barbara Charney, Bernice Alperstein, Clara Lluberes and Mary Deckerl embarked upon a plan of operation for the semester. Many of the ideas were new and quite different but, after five months of dauntless effort, a goodly portion of the plan was set to work and the results highly success- ful. Much of the credit should be given to the four coordinated committees and their chairmen, Educa- tional-Martin Eeibish and Ioseph Samuels, Social- lrwin Schwartz, Seymour Bochner, Arlene Rose and Muriel Solomon, Publicity-Ken Newman, Steve Krulick and Ralph Oliver, Membership-Herbert Weiss, Bert Westman. The Nlerchandisers An example of the completed plan was the Stu- dent Coaching Service offered to members that may fall behind in their studies. Literature sheets giving business information and social events were sent to the members. Professional men were invited by the MO to speak. These events were publicized through- out the school and all students were invited. A Christmas party was held and, in the opinion of many, it was one of the finest social activities of its type ever held at LIU. Another event held for the first time was a Christmas Store Window display contest, involving the merchants of the Fulton street district in Brook- lyn. The MO felt that someone should recognize and bring to light the efforts of progressive retailers. Two awards were given, one to Martin's department store and the other to the Bariccini Candy Shops, for their efforts in displaying their wares to the public. The MO has many other innovations it wishes to put into operation, such as a weekly events sheet, Retail freshman orientation gatherings and the mail- ing of the Seawanhaka and the Merchandiser to our graduates and men in the armed forces. -i-S- Eighteen up 4 ' 'fi Stu- KCI! 1110? as giviH9 'e semi iv ed DY me Y J- .nad A won of es of its MS U 'H F 75,7133 f 1 , 3700!

T. .W ,.- imomgglf, who W WE sat staring down at our Royal Deluxe, doubtful of whether We could convey CIHY bright pearls of Wisdom to our fellow graduates, At first, the thought of pounding out l,UO0 Words about the fgle of student publications in the University seemed rather easy. We figured this was right down our alley because of our turbulent association with Seawanhaka for the past three years. Then a sudden realization interrupted our otherwise smooth thinking and we quickly slammed on the brakes, com- ing to a full stop. It struck us that this article couldn't be a mere rambling account of the functions of Seawanhaka, Sound and Review but that it had to conatin some kind of message. We knew that just presenting facts without any substance would serve no purpose and that we had to dream up a cer- tain angle or twist, as we commonly refer to it in the news- paper game. But what was it going to be? There we were, lost before we had actually started. We pondered awhile but fugitive inspiration seemed long in coming. Finally we surmised that we had the answer. Why not create a situation depicting LIU without the existence of Seawanhaka, Sound or Review? Why not show the graduates what might have been had they been denied these publications during their four-year stay in school? Imagine, if you can, the University without a weekly news- paper to keep everyone informed of the latest happenings, without a Review magazine for the entertainment of our intel- lectual segment and without Sound, which enables the gradu- ating classes to retain fondest recollections of their Alma Mater. The very thought that this would ever happen sent a chill through us. We were still shivering as we contemplated this fantasy of a school shorn of its publications. ln our estimation The journalists eawanAaAa . euiew Q . Scan! Q they are one of the main ingredients in keeping alive that much publicized school spirit and they retain a high standard of maturity among the students. They are indeed luxuries that are basic necessities. As a prime example, take the case of Seawanhaka during this past year. At the outset of the fall semester three instruc- tors in the English department were abruptly dismissed for reasons never fully explained. The Seawanhaka sleuths caught wind of it, collected all the pertinent data and reported their findings in the paper. Editorially they lambasted the English departmental heirarchy for what they considered a grave error. What we are trying to get across is that, if it weren't for the efforts of these budding journalists, the student body would never have been informed of a situation about which they were certainly entitled to know. The Seawanhakaites felt it their obligation to let the students weigh the facts and draw their own conclusions. Another instance that can be cited was the organization of a student group to formulate a new University constitution. Known to us as the Constitutional Committee, it put in long hours of exacting work redrafting a document which reestab- lished a Student Council in the University. However, all their accomplishments would have been in vain had not Sea- wanhaka supplied the necessary coverage and reprinted the entire constitution. This gave the students the opportunity to ratify it. We don't believe it too far fetched to say that Seawanhaka provides the students with valuable inside information. Who else would have known, for example, that the student cafe- teria, which lasted for only one week, was terminated because Dean Hudson considered it just too dirty. And where else could one have received a more graphic description of the Twenty W fl: x . if Wifi? 1 35959643 'Biff' ' aft wid- f f J ,- 331, FMA? - , QW. 59? tg' ff v M6553 I .

N f, Seawanhaka kept the students informed , about the Workshop-Theater and the Read- ers' Club, the latest club, fraternity and sorority tid-bits and the after dusk activities of the Evening Division students. Never to be denied were the doings of the various departments. Seawanhaka strove continual- ly to satisfy these groups by giving fair coverage in accordance with the magnitude of their accomplishments. This brings us to the problem confronting the paper during the first half of the school year. lt seems that a Cost Cutting Commit- tee had been formed in the University for, as WQQ their title suggests, the express purpose of L ! gm slicing all unnecessary expenditures. Al- L. A though Seawanhaka did not suffer as much as did Review, it was faced with a budget cut to almost half of the previous year. This explains the appearance of those compact four-pagers during the . . 1 autumn term and the resultant curtailing of departmental and organizationa news. Conforming, though, to the old adage ua penny saved is a penny earned, Seawanhaka was able to return to its standard eight pages during Sl'1lll'HllIllI'!4l. the last interim. Without flavoring this with too much Seawanhaka we would like to wind up by briefly spotlighting some of the individuals who made the paper a possibility during the l95l-52 season. They were a small group of students, ' h - ll d like yourself, who occasionally managed to go to classes. T e so ca e leader was one ferry Erankel, commonly referred to as The Chief. His humble ' ' Oh assistants included right-hand-man Arnie Goldstein, sports expert Larry C , the painsll Wachtel, headline specialist S chwartz and the petite Shari y S Nocks who had the arduous weekly task of assembling the copy into coherent, readable English. Others sharing in the glory and the headaches were Busi ness Manager Bernie Nearman, Connecticut's own Trudie Ray, Ed Cooper- man, Howie Girsky, Walt McDade and columnists Dennis Altman, Sam Berko- witz, Nicholas Pileggi and other assorted characters. The lournalism department has continually assisted the staffmen and established guiding standards for Seawanhaka. lts leading exponent is Prof. Paul Gould, faculty advisor to Sound and Seawanhaka, who frequently con- sulted with the editors in regard to make-up and writing quality. The editorial policy of the newspaper, though, was decided upon solely by the editorial board and never met with any censorship or interference. SOIHIJ V- i And now . . . the very sad story of Review S magazine, sad because this publication, . originally a monthly, was cut to one issue per semester in an attempt to curtail Univer- sity expenditures. lts excellent literary qualities still prevailed despite this setback, although an article in the Eebruary issue provoked dissatisfaction in some quarters. Entitled UBlacks and Blues, this article by E. S. Long was criticized as being anti-Ne- gro. Reviews editorial board explained, in agreement with their Eaculty Advisor, lffr. Bernard Barshay of the lournalism depart- ment, that the story only intended depicting an anti-Negro situation and that they did not consider it offensive. Think of the devastating consequences had Review been completely terminated? LTU poetry lovers would have never had the l i l QW Noc FRI! Ls ilwl fortune to read selections by Editor Martin Wank, Sam Berkowitz and Nicholas Pileggi. Among the stories presented was Robert Brady's Nature Story, depicting the gripping account of pathos experienced by a cat. Dr. Francesco Cordasco, Associate Professor of English, com- mented on The Alterocentrism of Woman, while Mr Leonard P. Stavisky, Assistant Evening Division Di- rector, reported on Education After Dark. Other con- tributions were American Taproots by loseph King, lr., Huxley in Retrospect by Rainer Pineas and The Goldbrick by the versatile Sam Berkowitz. In sum- mation, the magazine was so well rounded artisti- cally as to appeal to every student in the University. And as for Sound? Well, to be brief. . . -a.g. I The fourth annual Polk Memorial luncheon was held in the Hendick Hudson Room of the Hotel Roosevelt. Gold plagues were presented to outstanding reporters for journalistic achievements. This is one affair to which graduating lournalism students look forward. it means that one of them will receive a gold plague for being the year's outstanding lournalism student. The honored student sits on the dais among well-known per- sonages, uneasily but proudly awaiting his award. These awards are given in memory of foreign corres- pondant George Polk who died in Greece in l948 While on assignment. Dr. William Hudson made the presentations on behalf of the lournalism department. Recipients were: Foreign reporting-Molton Bracker and Virginia Warren oi the New Gould York Times: National reporting-lay Nelson Tuck of the New York Post: Metropolitan reporting-Richard Carter of the Compass: Educational reporting - Kalman Seigel ot the Times - Science reporting - Alton Blakeslee of Associated Press: Sports reporting - Ben Gould and Religious reporting-Ann Price, The Herald Tribune.

Special awards were made to Sponsor magazine, for trade publications reportinag to Edward R. Murrow, for his CRS television news proarain and to Donald T, Barry, as the outstandinwi Journalism student. Prof. Paul Gould was appointed chairman of the Iournalism depart- ment as Prof. T. E.

The immediate result of the sickening situation was a Board of Trustee's ban on varsity bas- ketball. A lunior Varsity contin- gent represented LlU throughout the l95l hoop season and, as matters quieted down, the belief that the Blackbirds would soar through the blue in '52 grew more prevalent.

Mernore ' the silver threads of spirit and honor among the black folds of corruption. While basketball still hogged the headlines if not in fame then in infamy the other members of the LlU sports family were carrying on in an efficient sometimes spectacular fashion. Take the case of the swim- ming team the fabulous Mermen who began winning dual meets in 1948 and did not stop until the beginning of l952 when they had rolled to 22 straight. The team was formed in l948 under the direction of Mike Borodkin an experienced and highly successful swim instructor. There were two matches in 48 fboth victoriesl but the natators really got into the swim of things in l949-50. MERMEN Cl-IURN TO UNBEATEN SEASON was the headline in Seawanhaka after the swimsters had sent their tidal Wave over Holy Cross 40-35 for their eighth consecutive win and No. l0 in their overall string. The hero of this successful saga was a tousle-haired well muscled freestyler named Stan Kaminsky who did not lose a single 220 or 440 yard event in the eight meets. ln addition to captaining the squad Stan compiled 108 points to top the aquators in that department. Equally valuable was a lanky breastroker Al Wimmershoff who swam the 200 yard variety of his ' uf.-.' K? . 75' ,,.P'. :Z .

Wimmershoff quit the team because of schoolwork pressure. The one-two punch was gone with inundation. But when the last splash of the season had died away Sewanhaka headlines proclaimed MERMEN WIN 20TH lN ROW- FINISH SECOND UNBEATEN SEASON. Two precocious freshmen Willy Vogel cmd Morty Fried had fined the trunks of the departed aces and had led the team to ten overwhelming victories. Vogel made everyone forget Kaminsky with consistent freestyle victories while Fried not only was unbeaten in eight breastroke efforts but also was respon- sible for shattering three pool records. n Defeat finally caught up with the aqua- tic Birds in their third meet of the l95l- ,., ' --r I1 t 5- ..

Undaunted, the Mermen bounced back from defeat by breaking six standards at the Adelphi College pool. As Coach Borodkin said, We'll just have to start a new winning streak. The National Pastime fbaseball, to youi returned to LIU in 1949 after an ab- sence of eight years. William Buck Lai, LIU '41, was selected to coach the team and immediately began the some- what happy task of cutting a cortege of 55 diamond aspirants to a workable 18 man squad. The results were gratifying. Amid the confusion of the ferreting out process, the sadly lacking practice facilities of Bed Hook stadium and the omnipresent apathy of the student body, the baseball- ers found time to win six while losing four and tying one. George Hough, a tall fast balling right hander was the mainstay of the team, appearing in 10 of the ll contests and ending the season with a 5-4 record. First baseman Carl Itzkowitz, second sacker Ioe Beiff and hot corner guardian Al Rip Van Winkle all broke into the charmed .300 circle. 1950 found the Laimen with a bevy of sluggers and a dearth of slabsters. The general consensus in baseball that pitch- ing is 757, of the game was borne out unerringly as the Birds compiled a 9-4 record although the team batting average was a sterling .279. The mound staff consisted of George Hough and little else. Big George 15-21 started most of the encounters and often had to come in from the bull-pen to pra- tect an uncertain lead. He got some help from Tommy Owens C3-25 a cool headed curveballer and Gill Marrero fl-ll With the 15 game schedule concentrated over a scant 30 day period, it was not sur- prising to see some young, Struggling M.D.'s hanging around the Parade Ground diamond, waiting for one of the triumverate's arms to come flying UP to the plate with one of his fast balls. To contrast penury with plenty, the-IG were six .300 hitters on the squad. Ed Cahill, a l'scat centerfielder showed the way with a .389 average. Following closely was left fielder Hal Collins with .344, outfielder-first baseman DiCk Hofleit with .324, catcher George Schmid with .314 and the irrepressible Hough with .300. Although the fix scandal seemed to blacken the LIU sports picture, it could not quite obliterate the luster of the bat and ballers 13-5 1951 record. The Park Circle Parakeets paraded off with their first six contests, dropped a tough 5-4 de- cision to City College, staggered around with some horrendous performances against Seton Hall ftwicel and Upsala and then straightened up and flew right with victories in five of their last six jousts. Included among the latter was a win over Hofstra College's Met. Confer- ence champions. Tommy Owens blossomed forth with a 5-0 record while Hough, used too often to be effective, wound up with 5-4. Key man in the Blackbird's attack was left fielder Dick Hofleit who batted .379 and hit the long ball well and often. Bight fielder Paul Zuckerman, third sacker Al Van Winkle and short fielder Sam DePaola all exceeded .300. The Diamondeers entered the present season with seven veterans, a group of promising newcomers and a new home at Brookville, L. I. Minor sports at LIU have been on a 'here she comes, there she goes basis for the past three years. Varsity tennis returned officially in 1950 after a 12 year layoff. The team, led by playing coach Murray Geller, won two matches from Brooklyn Poly and St. Peters, went into hibernation and returned for the '51 season with a 3-2 mark. The lack of a centralized court was a serious draw- back to their fight for recognition and present manager, Bernie Nearman, is searching for more suitable playing sites and hoping that the net game will not be forgotten. Track returned in 1950 but it never had a real chance to survive. First, the facili- ties were abominable. Second, the coach, Buck Freeman, was forced to neglect the squad in order to attend to the more pressing job of basketball scout and coach of the freshman hoop squad. With these insurmountable handicaps the team ran out of gas on the first lap and was never heard from again. SPORTS 1948-1952. A mixture of the bitter with the sweet. -Wf- The portswornen THE Birdettes ran into a terrific slump this year, suffering five straight defeats which comprised the complete basketball schedule., This can be attributed to several dominant factors. First, the Women's Basketball Team this year under went a complete job of renovation. A new squad had to be formed and taught the necessary techniques and tatics used on the court. The new squad had to learn how to play together as a team and not as individuals. Secondly, the Rules Committee of the National Collegiate Athletic Association made some changes in the rules and regulations in basketball for women. lnterest, initiative and spirit were evident in the number of girls who attended each practice. How- ever another serious problem faced the femme hoopster-one group would come to practice on Mondays and others on Thursdays so that seldom did the same girls get to practice together. The crux of the Birdettes, so appropriately named after their brother Blackbirds, was composed of freshmen girls who were unaware of the playing ways of a college team. Nevertheless they were willing to learn and that was half the battle. Only three of the old squad members were left. This year's captain, Alma Schriffron had two years of playing on the Birdettes. Alma had the experi- ence which was much welcomed on the team. A tall driving forward, she gave confidence to her team- mates. I Two other well-seasoned players, Ginger Schragg and Trudie Bay have had three years of Hroughing it on the court. Both girls proved indespensible as defense players. Another guard, Eva Phoenix, al- though new this year proved her weight in gold. A level-headed player, she was able to transfer her coolness at times to the other guards by talking calmly during crucial points. Some of Coach Louise Buonaguro's newer charges are Sara Holland top-scorer for the season, Francis Pellegrini, promising backboarcl girl and loan De- Nigris, a small but fast charger who kept her op- ponents guessing as to where she'd show up next. New guards lill Stella, Muriel Kroop and Emaline Leone are all shaping up as promising defense players. Completing the picture of the team are lean Bosenblum, Arline Hyman and Marie Cota. The toughest game of the season was with Panzer College. The opponents were experienced fast-driv- ing charges who were well versed in the elements of their trade. The Birdettes played most of that game on the floor. The Panzerites left the femme sextet with memories of bruises, low morale and an unholy low score of 78-8. The game with Queens College wasn't nearly as rough, but the victors went away with nearly as high a score, 58-8. By the third game, which was with Hofstra, the forwards began hitting in the dou- ble figures. The guards played a tremendous game, but their best just wasn't good enough. The game with Adelphi which ended the basketball season for the Birdettes, was at least a moral victory for the guards. ln the last quarter they kept the Adelphi forwards down to four points. However, the Birdette hoopsters only managed to chuck in l8 points for the entire game. Yes it was a poor season for the Women's Basket- ball Team, but it won't keep them down. Wait 'til next year was the answer to kidding schoolmates. And this may very well be, for the girls only need one more year in which to shape up, to practice skills and most important of all, getting used to play- ing together. -M- Twenty-eight H Wxv. .AMN S 1 -N-L Cn, x 'g Qi. rougmllg XJCSQSA ' Q ., 5. qslblees Af 309354. els feizh- ' U ' U1 Qeld.

Tau Bvln Si!l ' IP, as the fair Muse Euterpe fguardian angel of all neophyte musiciansl leads her charges to the threshold of as yet unborn careers and takes a glance shoulder-wise, she will look back on four happy, confused, and productive years. She would certainly chuckle as she remembered our first few years at the Con Edison building, sandwiched as we were between the Bio lecture hall and the Library. There were reports that many times Prof. Wethers' lec- tures sounded like a Becitatif backed up by a Wagnerian air. Or how often Miss Florence Weintraub the librarian was caught gliding from table to table in three-quarter time, quietly warning the kiddies to put the cards away as a member of the Mayor's Anti-Gambling Committee was seen snooping around. But for the Music department this was only a start and, as with many a toddling baby, a few of its first steps were bound to fall on the pedal extremities of some of the more established adults. Ecrase le Status Quo Under the administrative leadership of the late Prof. Baymond Shannon the department soon took on the aspect of an elbow-room demanding adoles- cent. Notice of the situation was made and before long the department had established a beachhead at the Schermerhorn street building. The awkward location of the building, and the closet-like rooms, had no untoward efforts on the student body, but the bars on the windows were somewhat sobering. The fact that the building had previously been a detention home for young kids trying to make good in the 'Backets', and the innuendos drawn there- from, were assiduously overlooked. But the presence of Mr. Puff falias Nosmo King J protector of foolish youth from that strange malady known as Nico- tinium Stainitis of the third and fourth fingers, Cand mortal enemy of Messrs. Ligget and Meyersl impressed the fact even more vividly. However, the place wouldn't have seemed the same without Mr. Puff, well-liked as he was by non-smokers. In lt was soon after we were ensconsed in the confines of The Tower of Schermerhorn street that the staff, formerly consisting of Prof. Shannon, Prof. William Eicher and Mr. Ionah Binder, was enlarged. Two people of uncom- monly fine musical endowment and background, Prof. Antonio Lora and Miss Ruth Sperling were recruited. Another later addition was Miss Madeline Cole, whose task it is to teach the students the art of La Danse. We were at the Schermerhorn building for less than a year when it be- came evident that the Music department was to need even more room. lt was then that negotiations were begun prior to acquiring space at the Brook- lyn Academy of Music. This acquisition has not lived up to expectations, but with the meagre appropriations given by the Administration for this purpose, the Music department is lucky it is not holding classes on the sidewalk. But all this to the side, for the true seat of knowledge is in the mind and not in any closet graciously dispensed by the powers that be, With Q11 the inconveniences discounted, the Music majors have much to look back upon with satisfaction. Those embryo Paderewskis who were fortunate enough to have Prof. Lora will always remember the scholarly and sympathetic manner, his wonderful grasp of the subject and his ability to impart knowledge. The end of the class hour was never the end of the discussion for Prof. Lora. l-le would dis- cuss any problem with a student until it was a problem no longer. Kappa Kappa Psi Miss Sperling was another who was never amiss when it came to spread- ing the efulgence of atonal education. The memory of her piano classes, consisting of three pianos and seven students, will be carried about in the mind like a half-remembered demoniacal Chas. Addams cartoon. Music recrea- tion, consisting of a group of uke-assassains at times took on some of the more harrowing aspects of a score of cacoon-stuck Les Pauls, all playing in different keys. Another member of the staff, who will be remembered fondly, is lonah Binder. His immortal words of encouragement to the chorus will undoubtedly go down with the other famous battle-cries of bygone days. For gosh sakes, girls-drop your jaws! Prof. Eicher earned a place in the hearts of all with his quiet sincerity and great interest. One of the pleasanter sides of the Music department picture was the free hand students were given in extra-curricular activities. When the students wanted a dance band, they were given the cooperation of the department and the noise and enthusiasm of the student-type journies into insanity, known to the habitues of the finer cellars as jam sessions, never Cwell, practically neverl had the damper put on them. The chorus, band and orchestra were the main musical outlets for the students, with the Madrigal group, under the direction of Miss Sperling, a late starter. However, the Music department did not escape the touch of misfortune's hand. ln February of l952 Prof. Shannon, head of the Music department since its inception and the main spring in its growth, passed away. Prof. Shannon had come to the University in l946 after serving in the Army during the second World War. He was always an inspiration and a friend to his charges and his passing was a great loss to the University, the department and the students. With all the frenzied occurences of these four years-the joys of learn- ing, of friendships made, of the observance of individual and departmental growth-it has been a time of great development for all concerned. The stu- dents have cr right to be proud of this University which has given them the impetus to advance to the top in their chosen fields. Although the future may not prove them to be Shostakovitches, Beethovens or even Irving Berlins, most certainly the school will have reason to be proud of them. -IMI- S-4 'Zag ATOMIC fission is not the private secret of nuclear phy- sicists alone. Our Library department started a chain reaction in l95l and l952l First there was a great POOME And atter the plaster dust settled, as if magically born from the air, there was suddenly a newly embellished, highly improved, well-stacked and well- stocked Main Library occupying the entire tenth floor in the Paramount building, a very efficient, beautifully planned Pe- riodicals Library, an elegant Graduate Library, a Reference Room, an Exhibition Gallery-all on the llth floor. A Physics Library grew in the basement. ln Brookville, a new College Library appeared. Telling developments all around the University in the last quarter century are no more eloquently expressed than in this vigorous development of its Libraries. Starting in 1928 with a room half full of tables and chairs, the Library grew to be a good Science and Arts collection by the time Pearl Harbor Day and World War ll struck with full disintegrating force. After a dormant period, which lasted until the close of World War ll, when veterans gave LIU its sudden burst ot expan- sionitis the Library was thrown into a continual fever. fOr, ought we say fervor'? l The Library has never been content to just give out books. Its exhibition boards have carried a cavalcade of fascinating exhibitions, Painters of the Nineteenth Century: Creative Photo- graphy: Land, Water and Life in Ancient Peru: Dime Novels: Contemporary Painting: Housing as a Problem: United Na- tions: Polk Award Winners and Their Work: etc. Students handbooks appeared on the scene, Guide to Periodicals, Li- brary Leaves, Bibliography of Psychology Books in the Li- brary, Psychology Periodicals. Several efforts were results of joint cooperation between the Library and individual depart- ments, Psychology, History, Art, English, Iournalism. This trend in cooperation was explained in the March l95l article in the Wilson I.ibrary Bulletin by Prof. Nathan Resnick. This cooperative spirit apparently seeps down to the student. For the Art department may say to its Stu- dents, 'You are also to go to the library and consult Thirty-two The Libraries l -. ,M-If o J , defwydfi Wk' p W' MJ r Wthgyip will , 4 M522 mt' WSWS 9129 get 152- :dvi yetiilfkaai 25 W ,.,iEg3ST5 Misqlldlf' 9' . ment gl l hm9dNv.. .'a lldllfllhc in Wdgbfmdggiw I 4 K' N! iittwhwfttflw iiwditfwfwm rmiwtifmfu, . liytstmhcbriinm' Ahustdewii tjmzammmm 'r'-imynmumu Wit'-Iiltflftletlinld l1pmiia,vmaa .Mlm-Fmdlh rfwtnhnsu vm. lfmitftiimisu bn llsllftdepmm hz mlmhbig mthqlldepmmh Ewshiniiwdn digg, eremyhm , Evengml. t.tttP-332 tmilmmmfe film mhfis tits- llelluivemh. ltt'vmflew the exhibit on French painting which we have worked out in cooperation with the library.' The Iournalism department may say, 'The library has prepared an exhibit of the work of the 1950 Polk award winners. Your comments are invited.' We have made all other departments in the uni- versity helpless without us-so dependent upon our resourcefulness that the faculty and administration call upon us for aid of every conceivable sort. We make signs, posters, draw blueprints, and take photo- graphs of experiments or events. We build plaster or wood models. design awards, work up publicity cam- paigns, display art, merchandise. and sometimes even books! We all but baby-sit for the faculty. Most of the credit is due to the excellent Library faculty, says the Director of Libraries. ln two years Miss Adelheid Baum revitalized the Periodicals Library. Inside of three years Miss Mabel Bartlett geared the Technical Processes depart- ment to unexampled efficiency. Miss Florence Weintraub turned the Circulation department into an efficient conveyor belt with a Home-Sweet-Home atmosphere. Mrs. Sylvia Spaulding, assistant to the director, mesmerizes problems and people, bringing out their best features. Iohn Storck's ver- saltility has toned up all of the Library's departments. Miss Hildegard Dietz as Reference Librarian provided answers to many perplexing problems. Mrs. Ann lohnson and Miss Phyllis Barbato built the Brookville Library from scratch. Prof. Murray should get most of the credit for the excellent Physics Library we now have. A host of others helped, too, Iames Licitra, Miss Helen Zanes, Ebenezer lwuagwu, Louis Margulies, Robert Bomze, Pilar Barreiro, Florence Brown, Florence Bullock, Ioan Ruben- off, Mary Decker, Robert Leonard, Martin Kroll, Robert Feld- man, Anthony Lewis, Walter Bloomfield, Golda Simmons, Louis Miller, Yolanda Giorlando, Iudith Stagnitti, Cyrus Elias, Bruce lager, Fred Binsker, Paul Glaser, Rayfus Williams, Thelma Baer, Samuel Berkowitz, Grace Brodkin and Martin Macaluso. The Library is on its way to becoming a dynamic center of academic activity. The same things done with the help of the History department, Iournalism department, Psychology de- partment and the Art department, may eventually work out with all departments. The Library may help sponsor research projects for faculty and students, help illustrate and document the results and aid in the publication. Eventually, it hopes to have not only a studio in which models of Peruvian pyramids may be constructed but also model theaters and architectural models for city planning. The studio will plan and execute its own exhibitions. Its micro- film studio will make its own microfilm books. A microcard department is already a reality. We see what they mean when they say that the motto of the University Library is not gathering dust - but MO- MENTUMV' Thirty-three THE fantastic array of courses offered in this organ of the University is due to the fact that in reality, it is a combination of what is ordinarily two sepa- rate departments. The union of the History and Government departments, under the chairmanship of Dr. Paul Kosok, has made available a curriculum of courses which range from Contemporary Com- paritive Government to the study of lndian and Pre- Historic cultures. From courses which deal in the relationships of local, state, federal and international governmental categories right down to histories of warfare, politics and even people, goes the all-encompassing depart- ment syllabus. Prof. Kosok has recently opened a course, Pre-Seminar in History, which is now being offered under his own instructorship, which includes an investigation of historical research methods-a necessity for all who intend to teach History. ln the field of government, Mr. Bert McCullough and Mr. Alvin Bahnsen teach classes which study Political Scienceand its evolution through the ages. Messrs. Edwin Hoffman, Fred Abbott and Profs. Horowitz and Perlin round out a department which covers just about everything that has ever happened to mankind. Yes, if the student is interested in know- ing just how this world lives and how it ever got into the awful mess we jocularly know as society, the History and Government department of LIU is the unit to ask. we .Jqonor Sociefg THE History Honor Society was formed when it was found that an organ- ization was needed to further stimulate an interest in History and Govern- ment for those student specializing in these fields of study. The organization affords a further means of scholarly and social association in a congenial atmosphere and closer contact with the faculty. Additional facilities for the development of the pre-professional skills and attitudes relevant to the pursuit of advanced training are made available. The Society is held together solely by a common interest and the voluntary participation of its members, who meet to discuss particular interests held in common. Important speakers are heard and conferences of professional associa- tions prominent in the historical field are held. Symposiums on controversial aspects of historical development offer ideas and information which are of interest to the entire group. The Honor Society proposes to establish liason with organizations of similar format in other colleges and universities, in an effort to promote the transfer of ideas. An attempt is made to encourage mutual participation in functions designed to keep the history student informed of opportunities and developments in his field. The 1951-52 officers were President William A. Almond, Vice-President Ioachim Gange, Secretary Philip Leffel, Treasurer lohn Spanos and Prof. Sydney Horowitz, Faculty Advisor.

THE interest in international relations at LIU is not of recent origin. lt dates back as far as l929 when the late Prof. Hugo C. M. Wendel organized the first History group With a total membership of 22. Since that time, the club has survived many World and school crises both under its original name and that of the International Relations Club. Be- cause of its continuous interest in interscholastic activities, the avid interest of its student members and the able guidance of its faculty advisors, both past and present, it has become the club at the University with the Widest and most respected repu- tation. The IRC has consistently been represented at interscholastic gatherings and conferences. Its scope has been much broadened through its association With many national and local organizations of in- ternational character. From its inception the club was affiliated with the Foreign Policy Association, an organization Whose reports provided a valuable basis for discussion. This connection also enabled the club to send delegates to the conferences held at International House to discuss current problems. Two years after the formation of the club, it became affiliated With the League of Nations As- sociation, lnc. Realizing the great opportunity to enhance the reputation of the University in aca- demic circles, Prof. Wendel, with the cooperation of Dean Hardie, extended an invitation to have the April l3, 1932 Model League of Nations Assembly held at LlU. This successful meeting, at which Dean Hardie was the main speaker, was the first in a long line of conferences at which LIU took a leading role. The University can score another first through the Thirty-five agency of the IRC-the participation in the first Model Assembly of the United Nations held at Hamilton College in 1943. This was accomplished, despite several difficulties which arose, through the help of Dean Tristram W. Metcalfe. The History Club Was reorganized as the Inter- national Relations Club in IQ43, at the same time associating itself with the other clubs under the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. Sub- sequent to the sudden death of Prof. Wendel in Ianuary l949, Mr. Alvin C. W. Bahnsen became the Faculty Advisor. It is interesting to note that Mr. Bahnsen is the National Faculty Advisor of the ln- ternational Relations Clubs. The later accomplishments of the International Relations Club have been quite as illustrious as those of the early years. Pursuant to the unbroken record of attending all pertinent conferences, the IRC participated in the formation of the Metro- politan Collegiate Council for the United Nations in l949. Since this event, the IRC of LIU has attended all conferences of this organization and contributed a great deal to the success of these model meetings of the United Nations. These meetings enable the student delegates to understand the positions of the various delegations of the United Nations by ob- viating them to study the backgrounds and positions of these countries on the important issues of the day. These model meetings have received acclaim from many important quarters in both government and education for their progress in showing the American college student just how the UN functions. In short, the International Relations Club has done much to bring understanding of international affairs to the student body, and brought much well deserved recognition to the University. ,.,.........-..-Jr IN late November of 1951 a meeting was held by Deans Hudson and deBarritt to discuss the formation of a new constitution for the students of LIU. Leading students in all the school's organizations were asked to attend. LIU had been without a constitution for two years and a previous constitutional committee had failed to formulate one due to the apathy of its members. lt was decided at this meeting that 12 students would be elected to a new committee to attempt, once again, the drawing-up of a new constitution. The 12 students selected were chosen on the basis of their leadership, dependability and experience in constitutional work. One of the first duties of the committee was to select a Faculty Advisor. Clt was deemed advisable that two be chosenl. Mr. Henry Adrian and Mr. Alvin Bahnsen, instructors in the History depart- ment, were selected and agreed to accept the dual position. From that point, the committee moved fast, hold- ing two and sometimes three meetings a weekg each meeting lasting anywhere from one to three hours. The committee appointed lra Greifer as Chairman and Phyllis Goldner as Secretary. Divided into sub- committees, each section worked on one particular phase of the constitution. Within a period of three months the Committee, with the full co-operation of the college, was within two weeks of finishing its task. Only the final cor- rections had to be made before presenting it to the students for ratification. On March 12, 1952 the following article appeared in Seawanhaka, weekly newspaper of LlU: The day for the establishment of Student Govemment at LIU is almost here. The Constitution Committee has turned its com- pleted document over to the English depart- ment for literary suggestions and to Dean Hudson for administrative approval. As soon as approval is received from the Ad- ministration a time will be set for the stu- dents to vote on ratification of the Constitu- tion and its by-laws. The Constitutional Committeemen Few students realize the amount of time and work which the Committee has put into the writing of this new Constitution. It re- veiwed the constitutions of other University Student Governments in the New York area and then proceeded to draw up a form of govemment which was applicable to LIU. Perhaps the most interesting aspect of the Committee's work was the spirit of com- promise which pervaded in spite of per- sonal preiudices and interests. The goals of the Committee was to devise a Constitution which would best repr-esent the student body and work for the best interests of all the students and the University. That is why the Student Council will represent the entire student body through the r-egular Council members. No club. organization or group within the University will be represented di- rectly as such in the Student Government Association: yet the rights and privileges of all organizations are protected under the Constitution and By-Laws. Another aspect of the Constitution Com- mittee worth noting is the fact that no one member claims credit for the Committee's accomplishments. Each and every member made his or her contribution both as to con- tent and form of the finished document. Both Faculty Advisors, Messrs. Henry Adrian and Alvin C. W. Bahns-en. have nothing but the highest admiration and praise for the display of initiative, construc- tive contributions and cooperation which each member brought to the Committee. They have worked together as a team and believe the Constitution reflects that spirit . . The members of this Committee are: HENRY ADRIAN . . . Faculty Advisor . . . BA Marietta College, 1941.

Both in group and in individual undertakings, the faculty of this act- ive department has brought immeasurable prestige to the University. One of their most notable achievements, the inauguration of Enchiridion, an honor society for students of literature, was an enterprise to which many members of the English depart- ment contributed. From the time of its incep- tion early in 1950, Enchiridion instituted a dy- namic program that was geared toward ad- vancing the standards of English literature. After inducting its first members-a mere handful of English majors who were able to meet the high standards of the society fwhich are a 2.5 average in 24 credits of Englishl- Enchiridion held a public symposium. The topic chosen for discussion was The Value of Psychoanalysis in Literary Criticism. Assum- ing the position that psychoanalysis could be put to effective use by the critic were Mr. Howard justin, formerly an instructor of Eng- lish at LIU, and Arnold Friedman, graduate as- sistant in English. Mr. Willard Maas, also of the English department, and Louis Karnpf, past editor of Review, took the negative view. Pre- siding over the forum-which was marked by heated rebuttals from both sides - was Dr. Francesco Cordasco, the popular Associate Professor of English and an authority on Vel- lum Iunius-whose lost letters attacking King George of England he discovered for LIU. Cedric Malin, who upon graduation became the director of LIU's evening division, and is now an English Instructor at the Hicksville branch, suggested the formation of an English honor society. With the aid of the department, he helped to make the idea become a reality. As the founder of the organization, Malin re- mains as its permanent president ex officio. Dr. Cordasco, who contributed the name to the society Can appropriate one, since Henchirid- ios in Greek means: to view something from a raised vantage point or a particular perspec- tivel has performed ably as Faculty Advisor, Eli Barry is the elected President, while Donald O'Shea, Leonard Kent, Arnold Friedman and Al Serling serve as Vice-President, Treasurer, Secretary and Historian. Foster The Literateurs Enchiridion is proud to number among its members some of the nation's outstanding poets, novelists, critics and educators. Gilbert Highet and Mark Van Doren of Columbia Uni- versity, and Harry Levin of Harvard are but a few. Frequent acclaim has been tendered vari- ous members of the English department for their research in numerous branches of litera- ture. Dr. Cordasco received recognition for the unearthing of the Iunius papers, Prof. Iames R. Foster, chairman of the department, was given the Monograph award by the Modern Lan- guage Association for his History of the Pre- Romantic Novel in England, published in l949. Mr. Willard Maas is presently lecturing in Ire- land on a poetry grant from a noted founda- tion. During the course of their advanced studies many of the instructors in the English depart- ment have undertaken worthwhile projects in literature. Mr. Arthur Buckley-to whom Eng- lish majors will forever be indebted for his penetrating interpretations of esoteric literary works-is studying for his Doctorate at Boston University and completing a criticism of Mel- ville's Piazza Tales. Prof. joseph Shiffman re- ceived his Doctor of Philosophy degree from NYU for his study of the speeches and writings of Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Mr. Robert Spec- tor has had published an essay on Smollet's diction in Word Study magazine. iii .' 4 lf an mf 1' wif .sw swf.

Each one has his own unique system for establishing a rapport between the student and himself. Mr. Seymour Stagg browbeats, impresses, and overwhelms the hydrocephalic freshman by a profusion of ten dollar words, mind- reading, memory and hypnotizing stunts, threats, psychology, sex and histrionics. Mr. Hayden Sawyer uses a singular ap- proach fto say the leastl to the problem. He shouts ambiguous terms such as vigoroso, tears up dictionaries and asks the class to memorize whole pages from them, takes the class on long hikes through parks, divorce courts and movie theaters, and offers A's to anyone who can beat him in bowling. Since Mr. Sawyer bowls a good l8U game, nobody has ever benefited by this offer. Since the graduate assistant is often ex- pected to teach an English class when an in- structor is absent, Arnold Friedman has often been thrown into one of those snal-ce pits called English l. He rarely has any difficulty, how- ever, since he keeps the class busy by giving them grammar tests for the entire hour. Many students were distressed when Mr. Howard lustin left the English faculty. He was known, by the students who sat with him, to be one of the most erudite, stimulating and sin- cere instructors in the department. lt is hoped that he is happy wherever he is and that other students are afforded the same benefits of his teaching abilities as we were. We all owe the English department a note of appreciation. Without them we would never know-were we asked-that the Merchant of Venice was written by Ernest Hemingway. -0.11. ibm .xgrfid fefn UNIVERSITIES, being what they are, house many different types of individuals, ranging from the sophisticated Future-Author-of-America to the long- haired esoteric musician. These extremists somehow never seem quite at ease unless involved in seem- ingly endless discussion, argument and debate. Our aesthetes, recognizing the need for the young artist to present his work, haphazardly began the formation of a group to unite all the arts. Under the direction of Sam Berkowitz, a columnist for Sea- wanhaka who gained repute as LlU's fledging Brooks Atkinson, the structural framework began to take concrete form. Sometime in the early fall of 1951, 20 invited guests listened to a series of readings, taken from past Workshop-Theater performances, presented back-to-back with a discussion on artistry and poetry. From this humble, rather erratic, seed bloomed a flourishing, albeit controversial tree. At the second meeting of the Art Circle, before some lUO guests comprised of students and faculty members, Mr. Ho- ward lustin, then an instructor in the English depart- ment, debated with Mr. Eli Gladstein of the Eco- nomics department on Art for the Artist. The dis- cussion was in part inspired by an editorial in Review magazine by Louis Kampf, The Romantic Audience. Scenes from Saroyan's The Time of Your Life were staged by members of Prof. Dennis Brown's class in Acting. This, together with several songs by the Madrigal singers, directed by Miss Ruth Sperling of the Music department, comprised the remainder of the famous four hour program, a record perform- ance by any standard. Eventually the school's literary magazine, Review became more closely united with the Art Circle, so close, in fact, that the latter became a subsidiary of Review. This publication, curtaailed financially to one publication per semester, became a fond watching parent, donating poets and authors to the Circle. Martin Wank, a junior and Editor of Review, to- gether with Sam Berkowitz, graduated by still ac- tive, appointed Enzio Napoli, a junior, in charge of the dramatic arts. On February 14, in a general Art Circle program, Vicki Copolla and Naomi Robbins read selections from The Boy With The Wooden Arm, a play by Enzio Napoli printed in Review. Scenes from Tennessee Williams' The Rose Tattoo were presented at a later performance. The active members this year were Nicholas Pileggi, Dennis Altman, Sam Berkowitz, Martin Wank, Enzio Napoli, Bert Dince, Vicki Coppolla and Naomi Robbins. -NJI- Thirty-nine to 1 If i , . av X ' t.v,','. .

GREGORY WALCOTT, the 82 year old Chair- man of the Philosophy department, has just begun to realize blossoming satisfaction resulting from a request made over 33 years ago. ln 1917 Dr. Walcott requested of the Hamline University officials, where he was a Philosophy in- structor, a year's leave of absence to teach in the then unsettled nation, China. After the request was granted the elder philosopher assumed the duties of a professor of Philosophy in the Tsing Hua Uni- versity in Peking. While there Dr. Walcott had, in his classes, two Chinese youths who, 33 years later, were to become his professional colleagues and personal friends. In December 1951 the first reunion took place. Dr. Hsina Hai Chang, a former student of Dr, Walcott's, accepted the position of research profes- sor at 1s1U. Accordinci to Dr. Chang 'lProf. Walcott opened the '.-:hole intellectual world of the West to him as a youth. Dr. Walcott recalled his former student as one of the very' few at Tsing: Hua i .-.' ho had the courqfzc- to tfikf- my course Eorty After concluding his training with Dr. Walcott, Dr. Chang entered the fields of Education and Philosophy and taught in several Chinese univer- sities. He was also in the diplomatic service, as a Chinese envoy to Portugal, Poland and Czechoslo- vakia, from 1933 through 1937. ln 1938 he was named director of the Chinese Institute in London, an organization designed to promote cultural understanding between Great Britain and the aforementioned Asiatic country. Dr. Chang received his Doctor of Philosophy degree from Harvard and is the author of The Strong of Asia, a biography of Chiang Kai Chek. Another of his works concerns itself with the quest for world peace. lt is entitled Letters from a Chinese Diplomat. At LIU, Dr. Chang will work on the relationship between China and Europe, concerning their philo- sophical and moral contact in the 17th and 18th centuries. Describing Dr. Chang as a scholar of rare abili- ties, Dr. Walcott said that the appointment of his former student to the University gave him guest personal pleasure. Kindtate with PWM not th .

P J. li Kind fate granted Dr. Walcott a second reunion, which came within three months of the first. In February 1952, Dr. Chi Pao Cheng accepted a posi- tion as research professor of Philosophy at LIU, thus bringing the three scholars together once again. Dr. Cheng, While a student at Tsing Hua Univer- sity, became so devoted to his foreign teacher that he transferred to Hamline when the former's leave of absence had expired. After receiving his Bachelor of Arts degree from Hamline, Dr. Cheng attended Chicago University for his Master of Arts degree. His doctorate in Philosophy was obtained from Columbia University. Dr. Cheng returned to China and ultimately held presidencies at two universities. From 1948 to 1950 Dr. Cheng served as deputy chairman in a department of UNESCO. The two Chinese philosophers are now living With their families on Long Island, closer to the man who opened their eyes to the Wonder of the Uni- verse and, with awe, upon the earth on which they live. -w. mc d. THE school year of 1951-1952 has been an active one both for the Psychology Club and Psychology Honor Society. Enthusiastic student members set up a series of programs under the direction of special committees to stimulate student interest and to serve the entire department, so that Psychology might as- sume its proper stature among the various areas of learning. President MacFarlane, assisted ably by Vice- President Callahan, Treasurer Rogers and Secretar- ies Morton and Philips, conducted weekly sessions concerned with the growth and development of the groups. Under the able guidance of Parliamentarian Wendrowski, issues were handled clearly and smoothly. Highlights of the year included the acquisition of beautiful blue-on-gold pins with the Psi emblem. Honor Society members received keys of the same nature and were awarded certificates at a pre-holi- day ceremony, by Prof. Hartstein, Chairman of the Psychology department. Planned for the coming year is a season of pro- grams featuring outstanding speakers in Psychology and the allied sciences and pertinent movies and field trips for members of the Society. A series of discussions of vocational and legal problems in Psychology are also being scheduled. Psi is open to all students at the University with a special interest in the study of behavior, while the honor groups are limited to majors in Psychology with a given average in their major and in their all- round studies. A cordial welcome is extended to all new mem- bers by the officers of the Society and by Faculty Advisor Henry Guze who hopes to see Psi a clearing T ie Psycho ogists house for ideas and a stimulant to Psychological talent. Of particular interest is the planned publication -which should appear some time during the next semester. lt shall be based in the main upon the scientific writings of students but will also include pertinent data in regard to faculty research. ln this way it is hoped to establish a publication repre- sentative of the significant activities of this depart- ment at the University. With the growth and expansion of the Psy- chology department, there should be much activity of a research nature, particularly on a graduate level. ln terms of service, President-elect Callahan has already sent out a questionnaire to faculty members regarding the arrangement of film showings. These would be entirely under the responsibility of the Society and could be adjusted to the needs of in- structors. A careful survey of resources has revealed a large number of excellent films which would be easily available. During the year, two films on the nervous system in development drew large and in- terested audiences. This presents merely a passing glimpse of the rapidly growing Psychology Society and Club. lt can be predicted that many complex issues in the field of behavior will be handled with skill and intel- ligence under the supervision of the Psi. Perhaps the essence of the future can be gleaned from a recent LIU radio program in which the President of Psi discussed a problem of current significance with two members of the faculty. Much can be gained from such student-faculty participation, and the Psychology Society is planning to encourage this mode of learning to its maximum.

Thus, the initial pro- gram provided for led to a Master of Arts degree and required at least 407, of the Work to be con- centrated in Education. Courses were offered in Elementary and Secondary Education, English, His- tory and Psychology. ln September, l95U, courses in Retailing leading to the Master of Science degree Were added and the Master of Arts degree made available in dis- tributive education. ln February, l95l, graduate Work was also in- stituted at the Oyster Bay branch of the University. In September of that year, Graduate work in Accountancy leading to the degree of Master of Science was inaurgurated. ln addition, the progress of the graduate work offered in English, History and Psychology had been so satisfactory as to Warrant provision for curricula leading to the Degree of Master of Arts in each of these departments per se. Indeed, the Graduate Division had developed so fully that the authorities of the University saw fit to designate this branch of the University in itself as a separate school. The type of courses offered, the quality of the instruction, the caliber of the faculty and the stan- dards for graduate study prescribed by the Gradu- ate School Committee, have been of such high merit as to attract many students who completed their undergraduate Work in colleges and universities throughout the United States. With the occupation of the new quarters on the Flatbush avenue extension by the University, the graduate program has been enchanced consid- erably by the provision of a separate Graduate Library on the llth floor and, when the second floor is completed, additional graduate research facilities in Psychology will be added. lt has been satisfying, indeed, for the Administra- tion of the Graduate School to be petitioned by the first recipients of the Masters degree to consider the further extension of the graduate program to provide also for doctoral studies even if the University is not yet ready to consider such expansion. Forty-three T HE WAC serves as hostess during the intermis- sion of all plays produced by our Workshop Theater. The WAC is public-spirited. lt has always been instrumental in the success of the University's Send- A-Child-to-Camp and Christmas Drives. lt has al- ways found her at work in all the important munci- pal drives. A freshman woman student owes much to the WAC, which welcomes her on the opening day of college and throughout the first year helps her to undertake successfully the transition between high school and college. The Women's Advisory Committee was organized some ten years ago with a two-fold purpose. The first-to give every woman student in the University an opportunity to develop and to demonstrate her abilities, and to co-ordinate these abilities for the en- richment of university life as a whole. The second-to secure a diversified group of wom- en students whose advice and cooperation might be called upon in the planning of all matters concerned wholly or primarily with the women students of the University. The membership is elastic: two representatives from each sorority and house plan, together with representatives from departmental and other socie- ties. Any woman student may attend he meetings, held every two weeks. The WAC is an active and highly valuable organ- ization. There are certain responsibilities and privileges which clearly fall within its scope: the planning and the management of the Welcome Teas, held every semester for the new women stu- dents, and of the Teas given annually in honor of the mothers of LIU freshmen. W A O 111 C 11 v S cle Burrill Pan-Hellenic Council, originally known as lnter- Sorority Council, was concieved at LIU in 1928. The Council is a union of those sororities within the Uni- versity which have successfully fulfilled the high standards of admission. The Council works toward certain specific goals: encouraging friendly relations among the various women's groups: stimulating interest in extra-cur- ricular activities: regulating the formation of new sororities: enforcing regulations conceming rush- ing, pledging and initiating new members in in- dividual sororities: establishing and maintaining friendly relations with other colleges in the metro- politan area: and working in close cooperation with the Inter-Fraternity Council. c jc i V :i t i G C .. The members of the Council are proud of their war record. They adopted and supported a war orphan, sent food packages and clothing to the destitute peoples of Europe and aided in the British War Drive. An inter-sorority scholarship award is presented annually to the sorority that has achieved the high- est scholastic average for the previous year. The members of Pan-Hellenic are active in nu- merous college activities and many committees are composed of Pan-Hellenic members. The Pan-I-lellenic Tea is a semi-annual event. lt is the traditional medium of acguainting the fresh- man with the three University sororities now func- tioning on campus.

She held separate meetings with representatives of the three major religious faiths in order to discuss this prob- lem. lt Was as a result of these meetings that the Menorah Society was reorganized later that month. The Menorah Society is comprised of students With mutual interests in Iewish culture and in the dissemination of information concerning the princi- ples and traditions of Iudaism, to promote good feel- ing between faiths. The goals of the society, as established and un- animously agreed upon at the first meeting, Were: to bring the ideal and beliefs of traditional Iudaism to the notice of the students of LIU, to increase their understanding of this group, to foster inter-faith pro- grams so people of different faiths will realize the similarities inherent in, and the differences modem society has imposed upon, all religions. lt is hoped that the Menorah Society will be an active contributor to the advancement of tolerance between sects. The reputation of LIU as a liberal university has been built on a foundation of under- standing and respect of all groups for one another. ln the universal perspective it is also hoped that these contributions will lead to a world that is peaceful and free of bigotry. Forty-five 'Il 5,0110 ll FAIL The Religious Clubs 'll C DURING the past three years the University's Eve- ning Division has made extremely rapid strides. Once considered to be a minor adjunct to the Day Session, it is now a major administrative unit operat- ing under the supervision of the President and Dean of the University. Early in l949, Dr. Harold E. Hammond was ap- pointed Director of the Evening Division with in- structions to develop the list of courses available to the students. Since that time, the enrollment has increased from 350 to more than l,l00 students. In place of a few basic courses, the Evening Division now offers approximately 100 subjects each semester in a wide variety of fields. The average evening student takes nine semester hours of course credit on two evenings a week, attending either on a Monday-Wednesday or a Tuesday-Thursday schedule. An exclusive innova- tion of the Evening Division, the 75 minute period, has made this possible. Although a student load of more than nine semester hours of credit is dis- couraged, ambitious students have the opportunity to add two to four hours of credit to their curriculum on Friday evenings. In general, men and women who are enrolled at evening school are older than their Day Session colleagues. They are mature men and women who have come to class with diversified backgrounds and experiences. Many of them have travelled to other parts of the world, especially those who saw military service during World War ll. As a result of this experience, they are able to offer positive contributions to any classroom discussion. The evening student expects to find certain things in collegeg a serious examination of issues, a blend- ing of informality and mutual respect in student- faculty relationshipsg and a curriculum which is responsive to the problems of the business and social world. Above all, the student demands the same caliber of instruction afforded to Day Session students. Forty-six f7Ae lfen ing .Shfmfi The administrative staff fincluding Dr. Harold E. Hammond, Director of the Evening Division, Leonard P. Stavisky, Assistant to the Director and Mrs. Mary F. Holland, in charge of office personnell offers guidance to the students regarding their programs of study and the University's academic require- ments. The Evening Division staff has expended considerable effort to provide extra-curricular activi- ties for the student body. ln February, 1952, the third annual Evening Divi- sion Dance was held at the Roof Garden of the Hotel St. George. Miss Marion Matters was named Chairman of the Dance Committee, while Mr. Char- les S. Gary, Miss Elinor Cohen, Miss losephine Scott, Mr. Vincent Di Mattina, Miss Mary Pedro, Miss Edna Collins and Mr. Haig Babian were the faculty ad- visors to the Committee. The entertainment pro- gram featured Eileen Barton, the television and re- cording star, Mal Keller's orchestra, Lou Winters, vocalist, and Steve Ellis, magician. As another extra-curricular event, the Evening Division sponsored a series of Public Affairs Forums under the auspices of Dr. Hammond and Mr. Stavi- sky. Prominent national and international authori- ties were invited to speak on vital problems of our time. Lectures and films dealing with the cold war, Congressional investigation, narcotics control, air power, Asiatic affairs, freedom of the press and the Hoover report were presented on a bi-monthly basis at the new University Center in Brooklyn. Each of these forums was made available free of charge to the students, faculty members and general public. The Evening Division of the University functions as an integral part of the College of Arts and Sciences. The dividing line is 5:15 p.m., otherwise, there is no difference whatsoever in the nature of the courses, requirements or degrees. rold E, eonard .

UAL, jrafernified UPSILON PHI In the 23 years since the establishment of its Gamma chapter here at LIU, the Upsilon Phi sorority has claimed some 250 University women as sorers. With their sisters at Hunter, Brooklyn, Queens and City Colleges, they are governed in their social and charitable functions by a Grand Coun- cil. Thus, ideals of lasting friendship are developed through mutual interests and activities. Upsilon Phi girls consider school service an integral part of their program. The members number prominently in the Women's Advisory Committee, in the Pan Hellenic organization and are spread throughout almost all of the University's activities. Socially the U-Phi schedule is crowded, event upon event, with at least three rush parties, an annual Christmas formal, a Graduation party in Iune, a Mother-and-Daughter Luncheon, Installations and, perhaps, a Theater Party or two. CLast Spring partial proceeds of the The Moon Is Blue outing were donated to charity.J The Brooklyn March of Dimes and the United lewish Appeal are only two of the charities which have been sizably aided by the Gamma chapter. There is no doubt that the sorers are an active bunch. Their participa- associations spring more and still more. In every way they live up to, and tion in school and in outside activities is constantly noted, and from these beyond, their motto, 'iIn Behalf of Friendship! IOTA ALPHA PI Moved by a spirit of friendship and further motivated by a desire to aid humanity in general, a group of Hunter College women formed Iota Alpha Pi on the third of March, 1903. the South. promote cooperation and to set a high goal of scholastic achievement. losis Campaign. One hundred-fifty The first step the organization took was to draw up a constitution. This was followed by the official chartering of the group. Meetings were held in the homes of members, at first. Eventually the membership increased until it became too large even for the old fashioned parlors. Chapters were formed and the organization spread from New York to the North, the far West and In l929, Iota chapter was formed at LIU. The purpose of Iota chapter is to foster a spirit of sisterhood and friendship among its members, to Its activities include charitable support. The annual Iota Alpha Pi cake sale is a traditional way of raising money for charity. Cakes are donated by the girls and sold to the student body. This past year the proceeds went to the Heart Fund.

Officers for the year 1951-1952 were Phyllis Cfoldner, Iiarbtira Ciiarnf.-1.3 Naomi Rabinowitz, Florence Feldman and Ioy Wallace. They held the resrt-1--1: tive positions of Chancellor, Vice-Chancellor, Corresponding: Scribe, Record- ing Scribe and Bursar. Sigma Omega Phi girls are united in the bond ol true sisterhood, the earnest desire to foster friendly relationships and in the expressed goal of occupying definite place in University life. One of the principal functions ol SOP is service to the University. Each soror- ity serves the school by active parti- cipation in the school's activities. SOP girls can usually be found in any ol the school organizations. As members of the Women's Advisory Committee or as members of the Pan-Hellenic Coun- cil, sorers arc always ready to wel- come freshmen and to work and strive for the success of all University social affairs, such as aiding the Speech- Theater department. SOP girls also did in the University charity drives, as the Send-a-Child-to-Camp Drive and the ''Mal-:e-it-a-lvferry-Christmas Drive te aid needy organizations. This year no pledgie was accepted into the sorority unless she had completed her charita- ble worl: and gave to the Christmas Drive a doll dressed in the likeness cf her pledge costume.

': O::.e Chanccllor Marion Brahm Vice-Chancellor Shirley Davis Secretary Aranka Schupler Treasurer Sylvia Gustcrvson PHI BETA MU The Grand Council of Phi Beta Mu fraternity, was established in New York state in l944. The first chapter, Alpha, originated at Brooklyn College, followed in l947 by the Beta chapter at LIU and Gamma at City College. lmmediately upon its acceptance into the lnter-Fraternity Council of LlU, Beta began to grow in both membership and prestige. Today it is one of the finest and largest organizations on campus. The frat house is the center of most of the organization's activities. lt contains a study hall well stocked with textbooks, current reference books, catalogues of various colleges, term and special reports of an assortment of magazines and publications. The spacious rooms of the first floor, replete with bar, dim lights and soft couches, are used for social functions planned by the Social Chairman. Several of the brothers utilize the top floor as a dormitory. The guiding force of the fraternity is the executive council, consisting of Martin Leonard Becker, Chancellor, lrwin Glatzerman, Vice-Chancellor, Lewis Bornstein, Bursar, Raymond Mineo, Corresponding Scribe, Arthur Soldman, Pledge Master, Richard Pernlund, Recording Secretary and Monroe Katz, Keeper of the Seal. Members of Phi Beta Mu have always been active in the many extra- curricular functions of the University. ln addition to the brothers who have been cited by the Physical Education department for outstanding athletic achievements, Emanual lwanier, present Grand Chancellor, was one of the organizers and captains of the LIU track team. A hard fought battle secured the coveted IFC intermural trophy in l95O and it remained on the mantle through the l95l session. The brothers have also participated in organizations such as the Ac- counting Society, Lancet, the Readers' Club, Merchandising Organization and the Theater Workshop, while still maintaining the high scholastic standards required by the Praternity's constitution. Phi Beta Mu is well represented in student government by Norman Horo- witz, who has held numerous executive positions in government and played an important role in the formation of LlU's constitution. ln the entertainment field there are Iimmy Cheatham and Gene Varrone-, well known vocalists. Many of Beta chapter's alumni have continued their education at lead- ing law schools, graduate schools and in the armed forces. Other alumni now hold active teaching positions in schools all over the nation. Among these are Mr. Arnold Pine, former Chancellor, Mr. Lloyd Kalugan, past Grand Bursar and Mr. Iohn Grey, who has instructed at LIU. ALPHA MU SIGMA ALPHA GAMMA BETA The AGB, since its inception in l928, has firmly established itself as a forward looking fraternal organization, designed primarily to further the social endeavors and interests of the active members. Boasting a large number of branch organizations throughout the nation and the world, AGB received LlU into its midst in the year l92'9. AGB met with immediate success, and attracted many members who were eager for a chance to share in the many projects and activities the Fraternity had to offer. ln l944 Mr. loseph l. Petito was awarded the Grand Chancellor post of all AGB for his outstanding fraternal spirit and organizational ability. The late Dr. Tristram Metcalfe added prestige to the frat by accepting an invita- tion for honorary membership in l945. lohn W. Yengo is credited with having started the first AGB in LlU in l929. Today Mr. Yengo is an outstanding lawyer and resident of lersey City, .who clashed with the Hague Machine in lersey's l947 elections. Pre- quently Mr. Yengo is called upon by the fraternity to advise in legal matters. He cannot resist participating in the various activities held by the AGB from time to time, such as Hell Night and the other frat socials. W' ww?

Irie has the privilege of dropping down at the frat house, roomy, comiortable quarter at 294 Atlantic avenue. There he has study facilities, coffee, music and he can even sit in on an occasional poker game which is designed only to while away his time, not his money. The member looks forward to irat smokers and to the annual dance, which this year was held at the Hotel Roosevelt. Hell Night is known through all fraternity circles, with AGB no slouch when it comes to dealing out unique tasks and punishments to its incoming members. This organization is probably the most active of all similar organizations in the field of sports. Three brothers, George Pappas, M. McLaughlin and P. Bushong, were the varsity swimming team men who helped LIU toward its 20 game winning streak. Various other brothers are connected with the basketball, track and gym teams. The AGB is proud that it can exist in a school where racial intolerances are unheard of and welcomes anybody to its ranks. The present officers, all candidates for graduation this year, are: M. McLaughlin, Chancellor, I. Cangin, Vice-Chancellor, P. Romano, Treasurer and S. Rannazzisi, Secretary. This fraternity is only one of a vast array of Irats serving that common goal with the ultimate hope that the realization of this ideal may bring everlasting peace and happiness to this troubled world. EPSILON ALPHI PHI Epsilon Alpha Phi was conceived in 1942, in the midst of the turmoil of World War ll. The l4 original founders entered the various armed services, the l3 who returned were mature in their outlook to- ward life and were better able to serve their school and their fellow mon. During the Korean conflict many of our fraternity men once again were called upon to serve their nation. Because of their fraternity training, which stressed the assumption of responsibility, the mem- bers were able to perform their military duties with a minimum of adjustment. ln the few years that the student spends in college he has many opportunities to develop his range of interests and abilities. The Epsilon Alpha Phi mem- ber is shown the way to acheive these aims-by par- ticipating in extra-curricular activities such as sports. clubs and student government. ln this way the fraternity brother is allowed to develop his assets to their maximum potential, so that when he gradu- ates he will be equipped to meet thc problems of living with confidence and mature understanding. ln short, the Epsilon Alpha Phi brotiier is encour- Orte 31 aged to gear his training toward the goal of assum- ing his proper place in society-that of a leader.

Recognizing that man is a social being, the fraternity does not neglect the brothers social devel- opment. Because of his close contact with brothers of different faiths and races in the fraternity, he learns to live harmoniously with people of diversi- fied backgrounds and ideologies. He learns to con- sider his brothers as human beings, not as Christian, few or ltlegro. Due to this carefully worked out pfan to develop the mind, personality, v:e'.'.'s and interests of the individual brother, Epsilon Alpha Phi fraternity func- tions dynamicczfl'-.' in the University and cf irri- rzieasuriible value in turning out graduates cf wth QU can 1.-:eil proud. Having been founded in l929, Tau Epsilon is one of the oldest non- sectarian fraternities at the University. Membership in this Greek letter society is accepted wholly on the basis of the pledgie's individual worth. Throughout its short history, Tau Epsilon has always maintained the elements which con- stitute a democratic attitude. Tau Epsilon has existed as a fraternity for 23 years. lt remained con- stantly active until l94l, when many members were inducted into the armed forces. At that time, the lack of campus membership temporarily inactivated the organization. Despite the on campus inactivity, the spirit of the organ- ization was kept alive. The purpose of Tau Epsilon fraternity is twofold: to further everlasting friendships and to promote student activities in the University. l The fraternity has sponsored many social functions in the past and in- tends to continue this policy. The latest of these ventures was the annual Spring Festival Dance, held March 9, l95l at the Hotel Roosevelt in New York City. Tau Epsilon intends, in the near future, to set up a student scholarship fund as a memorial to its War heroes. Due to unforseen circumstances we were forced to give up our house in l949, however, the Tau Epsilon has recently acquired a new home. This was accomplished through the unending efforts of the present Administration and membership. For some time now the direction of the fraternity has been under the able administration of Mr. Walter D. Kowalski. Mr. Kowalski is known affec- tionately among the brothers as Pops The chancellor has been aided by Ioseph Samuels, David Pesant, Leonard Liman and Stephan Schwartz who served in the following capacities respectively: Vice-Chancellor, Bursar, Secretary and Historian. ALPHA PHI D.ELTA ln l949, after a one year pledge pe- high level, since leading college Deans riod and after passing very rigid stan- dards, Beta Kappa fraternity was ini- tiated into Alpha Phi Delta fraternity. It was initiated into the lnter-Fraternity Council of LlU in l95l. The organization has the distinction of being the only member of the lnter- Eraternity Council at LIU that has membership in a national fraternity. Alpha Phi Delta, from a modest begin- ning in l9l4 at Syracuse University, has become a national fraternity with over 40 chapters situated in outstand- ing colleges throughout the US and has been a senior member of the lnter- Fraternity Conference since l93U. The Inter-Fraternity Conference, founded in l909, is composed of 70 leading fraterni- ties in the US. lt meets yearly, after Thanksgiving, in New York City. The problems of the fraternity world are carefully discussed by men experi- enced and interested in the educa- tional fields. The discussions are of a and Presidents attend, and affect deep- ly both the educational and the fra- ternity systems in this country. Alpha Phi Delta holds an annual na- tional convention in which delegates are sent by chapter members through- out the country. There is always an enjoyable social program arranged for the delegates and the visitors. As an award for meritorious achievements and as part of a plan to promote the welfare of the fraternity, a number of honors are annually awarded to chap- ters and individuals at this convention. The system of national awards was adopted by the fraternity in l938, and the first recipients were selected in l939. The Most Improved Chapter Award is awarded to the chapter show- ing the most advancement in one year and is based upon the improvement in scholarship with regard to rating, 'campus activity, improvement of house or quarters, honors won by members, One hundred-fifty-four TAU EPSILON advancement of APD nationally Cgen- eral scope, ideals, rituals, expansionl advancement of the chapter locally Cgenerally management, college and business relationsl. Another award of much significance in the fraternity is the Outstanding Un- dergraduate award. lt is awarded to the individual who, by hard work and sacrifice, has done the most for his chapter, his college and for himself. Other awards are given by the frater- nity, but are too numerous to list here. Activities of Beta Kappa chapter of APD include dances held at the quar- ters at l2l Schermerhorn street. Beta Kappa participated in the LlU Send-a- Child-to-Camp Fund, the Christmas Drive and other charitable benefits. ln the social state of these times there is a positive need for organizations that primarily foster such a program and the accomplishments and ideals of Alpha Phi Delta are directed towards these ends. ,qv ferr I, . gn Qfxiffl' J .

During the second World War it was d i s b a n d e d and reactivated again in December ol 1946. T Ever since its reactivation by tfi,PM:li-ffl, a group of 19 ex-Gls' Phi PHI 'A T ' P' ' LAMBDA Lambda Delta has grown in strength, To-day it is one of the largest and most popular DELTA fraternities on campus The 1951-1952 year has been a big on for the men of Phi Lambda in both work accomplished and achievements won. The Greeks from Gamma chapter played an active part in Dean DeBaritt's Christmas drives and Send-a-Child-to-Camp Drives, as well as participating in other charitable function. Besides doing service lor their school, they were victorious in many athletic contests too. The LlU chapter beat all the other chapters of Phi Lambda Delta in the New York area tliappa at NYU, Delta at CCNY, Zeta at Brooklyn College and Theta at Brooklyn Polyl for the inter- chapter basketball and football championships. ln school in- tramurals, they played in the inter-fraternity basketball finals, eliminating all competition. This year Phi Lambda Delta loses five very active brothers by graduation and many more to Uncle Sam. The five Phi Lamb men are all due to graduate in Iune. These tive men all have made good names for themselves in and around the fratemity and school. They are HERBERT BARTH, BERNARD FISHMAN, IRWIN GERTREU, MERTON GLICK and IACK LEFF. ERNIE PYLE HOUSE PLAN lt was in the Fall of 1946 that a group composed of returning veterans formed the Ernie Pyle House Plan at LIU. Their resolution and determination to make the House a lasting one has been an inspiration to us during these past four years of growth and transition at the University. That this House is still in existence today is a tribute to their foresight and guidance. The three main purposes of the Ernie Pyle House Plan, as written into the Constitution, are today mainfested in actual practice. The primary pur- pose is to introduce the members to, and better enable them to partake oi, the social, athletic and scholastic e:-:tra-curricular activities of the Uniffersity. The House attends en masse most of the University sponsored affairs, froze: dances and athletic events to presentations of the Workshop Theater. We are always represented in school athletics and this past February If ' and the semi finals in the intra-mural basketball competition. Ernie Pyle has performed ably in scholastic as as in cial and athletic endeavors. ln addition to the assistance in studies '.':2':ic2r 7151115-er willingly gives another, our 1952 graduating members have i 1 'ri r former officers ot the Accounting Society, ziiernbers of honorary' scaetzes . other men whose scholastic achievements have merited them accfairn. ln the threefold division ot college life ffsocial, athietic and sch 'arxije the Ernie Pyle l-louse Plan has participated '.-ritn Teal and success.
