Battle I ' ield, the scene of one of the fifteen decisive b. the world, stands a granite monument one hundred and fifty-five fe This monument stands on an elevation overlooking the spot where peai were signed. About twenty-five feet from the base of the monument is a lar in each of the four sides for a life sized statue of the generals who participatei battle. On the west is that of General Morgan; on the east. General Schuyler, toward the Schu ler mansion, the headquarters for a time; on the north. Genera and on the south, looking toward the real battle field, where Benedict Arnold victories, the niche is empty. It belonged to Arnold, but because of his trcac statue was not permitted to be placed there. Many things can keep us from fulfilling our destiny — kick of purpose, character, unwillingness to pay the price. In Arnold ' s case it was kick of cl treachery, and not only is his niche vacant, infamy clings to his name. You, the members of tiie graduating classes of 1934, are leaving school wh is great unrest, great uncertainty everywhere. Perhaps out of it all a new social s will emerge — one in which the rights of all men will receive greater recognitio the good things of life will be more fuUv sh.ircd b - a ' l. Because of your pi ycur train ng, and )our awareness of the great opportunities which the times your friends believe you will have a part in bringing about the good society for whicl we fondly hope and devoutly pray.

IN MEMORY OF ISBEL JODON A BELOVED MEMBER OF OUR CLASS WHO DIED MARCH 6, 1934 [23] The D a k t — 1934 SENIOR CLASS HISTORY JUNIOR COLLEGE HF.N, on September seventli, nineteen hundred thirty-two, we, the freshmen of Junior Collej;e, strolled light-he.irtedly through the halls to our first classes, some interested spectators might have joined with the poet in sa)ing, How beautiful is youth! How bright it gleams With its illusions, aspirations, dreams! liut there were no interested spectators. The members of the faculty were too heavily lurdened by their professorial duties to indulge in poetical speeches praising the beauly of youth. And the Sophomores — shall we ever forget them? — were busy holding secret meetings at which they devised the ingenious rules (they later imposed upon us.) We, of course, were blissfully unaware of the evil designs of the upperclassmcn to hamper our freedom. Not for long, however, were we permitted to retain our bresliman innocence. Al- most over night we were forced into a bitter cynicism, due solely to such enforced in- lignities as wearing mismated slippers; dropping, and picking up pennies; and the usual green dinks and hair ribbons. The Sophcmores, ever solicitous, urged us, through their representative, to organize our class. The officers elected were: President, Stafford Cassell; Vice-President, Howard Thompson; Secretary, Blanche Esbenshade; Treasurer, Archibald Vance. Mr. E. .. McKay was chosen Class Adviser. By October the President and the Faculty evidently thought the new pilgrims sufficiently advanced on their way to the Shrine of Education to offer a distraction in the form of the annual Reception. There were, also, during the year, a number of in- formal social events. Of these, the Chestnut Party, and the picnic at Rolling Green were, perhaps, most enjoyed. Who can ever forget the rides on the roller co.i; ter — not mentioning any names! The Christmas and Easter Recesses had served merely as hors d ' oeuvre to the long Summer Vacation. Still, we were net dissatisfied to return to our boo!is, no longer Freshmen, but elevated at last to the dignified position of Sophomores. In the class election, Stafford Cassell was again chosen to serve as President. Other officers elected were: Vice-President, Robert Wharton; Secretary, Blanche Klepper; Treasurer, Alice Thompson. Professor Francis Geigle was chosen as Class Adviser. With the conclusion of such routine business, we were free to devote our talenls lO other affairs — helping the new freshmen; cheering at athletic affairs, in which our class members have always been active; attending the splendid recitals and concerts; and, by no means incidentally, proving that we were not the giddy young things of the year before. the Class is anticipating two events — after that, the climax of our two vears the presentation at the Seminarv At the time of this writini: of the class play, li clxiiiiiJ; anc — Commencement. We have been a congenial class. Commencement will mean the end of many pleas- ant associations. We have reached the end of one pilgrimage, and will be starting another, with new friends, new associations. Always, though, the influence of Dickin,son will remain with us to help ni the search for that which is always just beyond — our ideal.

' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ° ' ' ■° '  k), shall we go Quietly the two approached Mr. Williams. Thank you, Marge, he sighed and closed his eyes. Dr. Wilkes and the nurse left the room, and a mmute later Williams stood up, stared at the door and passed through it. As he walked slowly down a narrow street filled wuh children, the bright cover of a magazme carelessly thrown on the sidewalk, caught h.s eye. He leaned over and picked ,t up. Un.-m, he said meditatively, lookmg at the painting of a dark-eyed beauty w.th wh.ch Betty Dawson had adorned the cover of The DUkhnoniau. Jane Schwoerer. Now why can ' t my wife look as young as that? He turned to the Table of Contents. Why I Left My Husband ' by -Margaret Knittle. My, my! Well if Margaret Kn.ttle writes for th.s magazine, Blanche Klepper ought to be somewhere ' m her. Yep here s her name. Goodnight! She edits this swanky publication! For goodness sake, gowns by Sesinger! So she ' s the one who sets the pac ' e for fashions thel A, this moment the wandering Mr. Williams seemed to have spent his energy for he sat down on a doorstep beside a gray cat. He went on leafing through The Dickiu- sonnu,. Advice to the Lovelorn, ' by Josephine Williams and Jane Mencer, he read and seemed a httle bewildered. Suddenly his face lighted. Must have started as fa; back - 34 when that ' Lonesome Man ' wrote asking them to correspond with him Looks like they ' re running a business here. All at once the ten children who were playing in the street made a dash, and he ducked as they pounded up the steps past him. He noticed vaguely that they all wore jackets of vanous shades of yellow. Ten kids in this small house, thought Mr Wil hams, and turned so he could look through the open door behind him. A strong odor of on.ons hung on the sultry air. A woman with reddish hair that straggled over her damp forehead bent over a steaming pot of stew. Poor woman! sighed our friend on the doorstep. All those kids. Blistering day! Sweltering kitchen! Stew! Whew! At tl s point Mr. Williams turned to meet the gaze of a man coming up the steps. Restmg, Bud? It ,s a scorcher, isn ' t it? He went into the kitchen. Lo Alice. Mr. W.llums tucked the magazine under his arm and departed from that doorstep. _ He stopped to look at the signboard where Staff Cassell was pasting up a new bill Ton.ght, ' he read aloud, Margaret Reeder Cassell, accompanied by Ruth W,se (The Glonous Trumpeter) will h.t high F in the old Mus.c Hall at Radio City. My wife sighed the bill paster ecstatically. ' ' What is Joe Koch doing these days, Staff? . ' [ 27 J T H 1 D A R Selling P.Kk.irds on 1 ifth Avenue, I think. He picked up his bueket of glue, and with i last fond glance at the poster faded from Mr. William ' s sight. Williams was tired again, so he sat down on a waste can near by and re-opened his Dickiinoiiian. ' Why Wear Clothes? ' Hum. I wcnder why he does wear them? Oh? He doesn ' t want to! Tsk, tsk! He must h.ivc been nodding, for suddenly he blinked his eyes and started. What was all the shouting about? A crowd was gathered a few squares down. Mr. Williams heaved himself up from his comfortable perch on the garbage can. There seemed to be a bit of agitating going on. Mr. Williams was tired and hot, but he managed to worm his way through the mob. Standing on an improvised platform of Mayberry Soap boxes were four men throwing their arms wildly about and yelling frantically, Down with petticoat rule! Down with all kinds of rules! until their faces were purple. The crowd became subdued suddenly, and wonderingly Mr. Williams turned about to behold a man of sober mien approaching the agitators. Behind him trailed Elizabeth Duffy with her shorthand note book, ready to take down in pot hooks and dashes what her renowned pastor, the Rev. Howard Thompson would say in reprimanding the four culprits. I ' m ashamed of you, Mr. Hayes. And Mr. Glenn, why this despicable behavior? As for you, Messers Hollar and Brubaker — your conduct grieves me beyond words! That is all gentlemen. You may go. Turning to his faithful scribe — You got all that. Miss Duffy? It will be on your files on Reprimands in the morning. Dr. Thomspon. Mr. Williams couldn ' t quite make it out. What was it? he asked Chamberlain, his old school friend, who had gotten into the mix-up. Well, they don ' t like petticoat rule, that ' s all. Petticoat? our friend queried, still lost. Good heavens, Bud! Don ' t tell me ou have n ' t been reading Walter Lippman ' s column so that you don ' t know that it is no secret who is running our government! I say, you look a bit dazed. Sure you ' re all right? I just don ' t get this affair of the petticoat. Would vou mind telling me whit, how, why? A pleasure! You may or may not know that Jane Furey, when she was about sixteen, went to Washington and visited the House of Representatives when it was in session. She was so terribly disillusioned about the way the government was run that she determined to do very much about it. So she mirried politically. You know the rest. Her husband has become President of the United States, mainly through her efforts and ambitions for him, and now she is perfectly satisfied as the power behind the Chair. I think she does a fine job of it myself. She has appointed (always through her husband, you understand) . ' ome excellent people to carry out her plans. Of course, one of the main assets to her administration is the incomparable lile-.nor Beach. Miss Beach, I understand, knows all the 5()(i() languages and dialects on the earth, which rather sim- plifies any ambiguities which arise on account of the language of the foreign ministers. Th Dart — 1934 Five Thousand? repeated the befuddled Mr. Williams. He looked past his friend ' s shoulder and saw Mrs. Ann Sinclair (?) sitting on a bench surrounded by at least fifteen small children. Take me, take me! they all yelled at once. But I can ' t adopt you all, rephed the distressed lady. My husband doesn ' t want fifteen. Close your eyes and pomt , suggested one little man. So she pointed, and Mr. Williams looked a little frightened. When she opened her eyes again, all the children had formed a straight line in front of her so that she was pointing to them all. She beamed. Fm sure my husband will be pleased to have fifteen such very clever children under his roof. Come alonu dears! ■ • ' A procession in the street drew Mr. William ' s attention from the departing 16. The whole panorama seemed odd to him. There was a heirse drawn by horses under the guiding hand of somber Abie Martin, who seemed also to be mumbling words out of a httle black book. At his side sat Bob Allen mournfully chanting Bill Brassington ' s latest poem Dead for Love, set to music by Profesror Charles Wilev in his moments of rela.xation from gruelling tasks his Chair of Mathematics at Duke University required of him. Suddenly around the corner came — no, not Willie — a huge, stream-lined Trans- continental bus. As it flashed by (almost upsetting the hearse), Mr. Williams read, Ginter Lines — from Paris to Shanghai by Bus. Looked like Blanche Esbenshade driving that bus. No wonder the horses are scared! Hold on, Abie, they ' re rearing! Mr. Williams was entirely spent with the excitement of the last few minutes and sank to the curb. He made himself comfortable, his back against a lamp post, and once more turned to the pages of The Dickiinunijii. ' On the Stage ' , he read. ' The new theatre recently built by Amos Hommel, M. A. (Master Architect) to replace the out-dated Radio City Music Hall constructed some twenty years ago, opened last night with a presentation of Turkey , featuring Robert Laidig and his superb gobblers. The noted director-producer, Robert Prettyman! has spent months, and thousands to make this opening night a glorious success. He has secured the services of Clark-Osman Stage Designers, Incorporated, with their chief de- signer and decorator Miss Ann Krimm (who has retained her maiden name for conven- ience ' s sake now after her seventh marriage), and the effects they have achieved are well worth going to see, as well as going to hear Mr. Laidig ' s gobblers execute the French finale taught them by Dorothy King after years of disheartening labor. The r61e of the farmer ' s down-trodden daughter who seems destined to spend her life sitting on the hill top watching over her father ' s fair birds is admirably played by Frances Hutcheson. Her fairy prince comes riding and takes her from her perch on the hill, but not before the girl on the next farm, Eva Hoover (refreshing as a vampire of the old school), tries to win her glances. But kind-hearted Eugertha Hauber comes out of the house and gently dissuades the treacherous Eva from her evil designs and sends her away to a con- vent so that Fanny can have her man in peace. It is very gratifying to see such sim- plicity in this age of gross complexity. —Reviewed by Mary Mosser of the Sun. ' [ 29 ] The Dart — 1934 Mr. Williams turned the page. — The last one. Up in the left-hand corner he looked at the smiling picture of Rhea Wagner. ' I earn $1000 a week by making tooth brush bristles at home in my spare moments. You can too! ' Just below this announcement (which Mr. Williams was a bit inclined to discredit — though he wouldn ' t for the world have had the lady know he didn ' t believe every word of it) there was a picture of four tiny bugs — they looked like a cross between a nail file and a pitch fork, to the weary wanderer on the curbstone — which Mrs. Mary Mallinson (?), the noted bacteriologist, had just discovered on the left hind foot of a scorpion. Gracious! said our friend, awed at such a scientific discovery. At the bottom of the page he came upon the at- tractive countenance of Mary Meloy. The reader smiled at: ' Edna Wallace Hopper has been dead fifteen years now. am the one now who feels and looks sixteen, although I am almost old enough to be a grandmother. Keep young the Melo) ' way. ' In the right-hand column Mr. Williams read, ' Robert G. Wharton, famed mathe- matician, has come out of hiding to disclose to the world his discovery of trisecting an angle. ' Mr. Williams from his seat on the curb noticed all at once that Big Dan (Davis), the cop on this beat, was eyeing him peculiarly. Mr. Williams began to feel funny about it. His eyes began to twitch, and his head felt odd. To keep control of himself he glued his eyes to the page before him. ' Tasso Camarinos, ' famous for his momentous decisions in divorce courts, has outdone himself in his recent case of Mrs. Love vs. Mr. Love. The former Miss Mary Snyder swore she could stand her husband ' s method of breaking his morning egg no longer, and appealed to Judge Camarinos to release her from her marriage vows. This the noted lawyer did, not, however, before satisfying himself that it was also the way Mr. Love broke the eggs he received for lunch as well as dinner every day. ' I ' ggs? Broken eggs? queried the bewildered Mr. Williams. His head began to reel; he felt all mixed up. Somebody was smashing his head in with a club. Mr. Wil- liams struggled. Things went black. Now white, now red, green, lavender. Big Dan ' s face appeared slowly before his blurred vision. Mercy on us, Mr. Williams! What are ye hairn? You look kinda green. You fell into the gutter. Are ye all right? Now, you all better wake up too! fJoKom King Mary Mai i inson FRESHMAN CLASS OFFICERS WllLlAM Vi ' l.STnFRC, PriilJllll BrUC F IsAACSON, Tl Vi ' uiiAM Gruvur, Vic-Pr.- uliiil ViKi.iNiA Farnsworth, Tn iurcr J.

Perhaps not the largest, nor the most intellectual, nor the most illustrious, but, undoubtedly, one of the most ambitious groups represented in the school. Members of the class have entered every phase of extra-curricular ac- tivity, making a notable record in athletics, musical organizations, school publications and class activities. After the Matriculation Service held on September 22, at Mulberry Street Methodist Church, the Freshmen were officially welcomed to the school by the Y. W. C. A.- Y. M. C. A. at a reception held in Bradley Hall the following Friday. Early in the year we elected as our class officers: President, William X ' estburg; Vice-President, William Gruver; Secretary, Virginia Farnsworth; Treasurer, Bruce Isaacson. At this same time Mr. J. M. Skeath was elected class adviser. At one of our first class meetings the president appointed a financial committee to collect the class dues. Louise Castner represented the day student girls; Christine Murray the boarding student girls; Morgan Knapp the day student boys; and Henrv Bauers the boarding student boys. This play has proved very effective. In October the Sophomores entertained the Freshmen at a Kids Party . In return the Freshmen gave an Old-Man-Old Woman Party for the Sophomores. On the whole, the year has been a very successful one, for the Freshmen, and they arc looking forward with pleasure to their next year. 132] The Dart — 1934 ,:; n ' i € ty t ' A -.i-iiai -U ....- ' -.

Vc seemed to be a very versatile group and united we constituted an active and progressive Junior Class. With the help of a higher classman, wc were directed and coached in the art of voting. The Junior officers were elected: Charles Baer, President; Burton Williams, Vice-President; Betty Barrett, Secretary; Jack Larrabee, Treasurer. Professor John I ' . Kelso, Class Adviser, guided us through that perilous year. As Seniors, we entered in tli.. September of nineteen hundred thirty-three with a feeling of increased responsibility and dignity. We came into a new being of energy and the desire to work and give ourselves higher learning. The new officers were: Jack Stokes, President; Frank O ' Brien, Vice-President; Sue Gallagher, Secretary; Sam Evert, Treasurer. Professor Paul Smith was chosen as Class Adviser. He has proved a faithful helper. We are proud to have in our class so many well known persons. Stokes was co- captain of the football team. Some of the girls were on the swimming and basketball teams. The chairman of the 193 3 Greater Dickinson Banquet Committee was from our midst. The class presented a three-act mystery play entitled A Murder Has Been Ar- ranged, directed by Miss Lane. The actors were highly commended for their splendid interpretation of the play. Now that we are leaving, we look back upon our days with a complete satisfaction. We have only to regret that we did not make more of the opportunities which were offered us to Dickinson. We will always cherish the memories of happiness and good fellowship we have enjoyed inside the halls of Dickinson. Betty Barrett.

Gfor r— When we passed through Nebraska, I saw Paul Kitner. He ' s a horse trainer— yeah — trains them for races. Eicrf— Oh, yes, I saw Stokes in Los Angeles. He ' s a lawyer for that large engineerin. concern owned by Dick. Gcor, c— You don ' t mean it. I hear Williams is in a rival business you know; he has quite an engineering business. His chief draftsman is Frank O ' Brien. El ert— You ' d never guess who I saw at that stop we made midway between Los Angeles and Chicago — Teddy Shopc — she ' s an air hostess. She said that Dot Saunders was in her plane. She ' s a news reporter for the Bulletin. Dot left in a hurry for that cancer operation which is going to be performed by that great surgeon, Knauber. Quite a write-up in the paper! Front page! Gcori; — I saw in the paper that Jack Larrabee was running for re-election for judge. He always could persuade people! £, ,r — Joe Carlo is in the semi-finals for the Chicago boxers. He tried to teach me to put up my mitts when we were in school but it didn ' t work. Gfor r— Batules is the captain of the Chicago Cubs. He seems to think that Jimmv Truitt has the makings of a baseball player. Eierf—Wilhelm is doing biology research work at Carnegie Tech with Dramatics on the side. He has too many other side-lines to mention now. Gror f— Lucylle Dieffenbacher and Sue Gallagher are supervisors in St. Luke ' s hos- pital, Cleveland. Gutelius is also serving interneship at St. Luke ' s hospital. £!pr — Evans has joined the National Guard in Virginia and Troxell is at West Point. I ' ll bet Troxell has some difficulty in doing away with his school bag. Gfor f— Some of the fellows are teaching at the Sem : Best is teaching Spanish; Gunder.

The club has made its appearance within the school at the Christmas Concert, the Greater Dickinson Banquet, and chapel exercises. On May the eleventh, the operetta Trial By Jury, a Gilbert and Sullivan production, was presented in the gynasium. A number of appearances have been made in the city at various times throughout the year, includ- ing programs at Mulberry, St. Mark ' s, and Pine Street Churches, the Kiwanis Club, the Historical Society, and the local radio station. [45] Da rt— 19 3 4 VOCAL ENSEMBLE SEEKING quality rather than quantity, Mrs. Myrra Bates, head of the vocal depart- ment, this year started a Vocal Ensemble composed of twelve students, nine of which arc her vocal students. During the year the Vocal Ensemble traveled to Danville, Bloomsburg, Mount Carmel, Elimsport, Milesburg, and Hughesville, to give concerts in churches there. Pro- grams were also given in St. Paul ' s Lutheran, Pine Street Methodist, Mul berry Methodist, Newberry Methodist, Calvary Methodist, Grace Street Methodist, and St. Paul ' s Evan- gelical Churches in Williamsport. In addition to these, the Ensemble has conducted half-hour programs on the radio several times throughout the year, has sung at the High School during Music Week, and has taken part in many school activities. The members of the Ensemble are, from left to right: Front row: Mrs. Myrra Bates, Director, Dorothy Gchron, Dawn McEwen, Martha Case, Margaret Reeder, Louise Cast- ner, Frances Bastian, and Mary Landon, Accompanist. Back row: Henry Bauers, Mor- gan Knapp, Clarence Haupt, Arnold Wilkes, Watson Nelson, Joseph Koch, and Dorothy Jacobs. The Dart — 1934 ORCHESTRA THE orchestni was organized and directed by Miss Florence , _. department. It was a much larger and more advanced group than it has been for several years. The types of music emphasized throughout the year, were composi- tions by Schubert, Haydn, Tschaikowsky, Mozart, and Brahms. The orchestra furnished music for many of the school activities including the Dick- inson Banquet, Senior Class Play, Junior-Senior Recital, and the Monthly Student Re- citals. It has been much in dem.ind in town where its recitals are always greeted wich much enthusiasm. On April 2}, the orchestra was entertained at a dinner given by Miss Dewey, which was a pleasing climax to a most successful year. [47] Dart — 1934 STRING ENSEMBLE THIS year has been one of the most active years in the history of the ensemble. There were ten people playing in the ensemble, which is a larger number than in previous years. This organization, together with the choral club, has given recitals in most of the large churches in the city, and has also given appreciated reci tals in Mount Carmel, Danville, and Hughesville. Many delightful programs have been provided for the Friday morning period in chapel, in addition to entertaining the students in other schools. The ensemble is under the supervision of Miss Florence Dewey, head of the violin department, and with her training it has become one of the outstanding organizations in the school. The group held their annual banquet on the 24th of April. This or- ganization which has provided so many beautiful moments will long remain in the memories of the students. 48 ] The Dart — 19 3 4 BAND UNDER the able direction of Mr. Charles Noll, a band was organized this year. The following officers were elected: Daniel Davis ------.._ Preaidenf Burton Morris ---.--.. Vice-President Dorothy King ----..-.. Secretary Ruth Wise -----.... Treasurer Although the band was not organized until the second semester, its members ha e played at the basketball games in conjunction with the Junior Repasz Band of Willianii- port. It is hoped that this organization will be carried on next year — not only at the basketball games, but at football games and other student activities. [49] The Dart — 19 3 4 Y. W. C A. AND Y. M. C A. WHILE the rest of the school was home enjoying summer vacation the ollicials of the Young Women ' s Christian Association were busy preparing for the coming year. The Y. W. sent a letter to each old girl giving her a little sister , chosen from among the ranks of the new students. The Y. M. sent out letters to eac new boy to welcome him into the school and the Y. M. The Y reception was held soon after the school year opened, thus enabling everv- body to get better acquainted. Later in the year the two societies sponsored a Hal- lowe ' en Party, giving an enjoyable evening to both faculty and students. The Y. W. C. A. held weekly devotion meetings every Sunday night at six-thirty in the faculty parlors. An interesting and varied group of speakers stimulated and held the interests of all present.

This club sponsors helpful fellowship, training, and friendship for all definiteU ' interested in Christian service. Through its weekly meetings the club attempts to con- tribute to its individual members, through the membership it endeavors to uphold the Christian standards of our school, and through the lives of its members and religious services they conduct it strives to win others to Christ. The club is directly counselled and .issistcd b - Professor Cautious A. Choate, Di- rector of Religious Education. The officers are elected from among the membership. This year they were Charles W. Baer, President; Robert Laidig, Vice-President; Eugerthi Hauber, Secretary; and Alma Reeder, Treasurer. During the past year the club has been visited by several alumni who testified that their past relationship with the club had enriched their lives. Not less enriching should have been this year ' s contribution to each member. The memory of our fellowship, as one of the lasting joys of Dickinson, will mellow with the years. in] The Dart — 1934 [52] The Dart Alpha Chapter 19 5 4 THETA PI PI Allen, Robert Huff (Bob) Archer, Clement Overtone (Archie) Baer, Charles W., (Charlie) Blackwell, Glennon A.

The aim of the club is to gi c its members a more realistic idea of business, and to promote the educational, professional, and social sides of business. The officsrs arc: Charles Luty, President; Mary Mosser, Vice-President; Elizabeth Duffy, Secretary; and Neal Moyer, Treasurer. The club was organized late in the first semester. Its actix ' ities were limited, but it put on a very successful play, and also entertained at a dinner party. We hope the club will broaden its activities next )ear. The Dart — 1934 DAY STUDENTS T HE Day Student group is steadily increasing each year as students from Williamsport and nearby towns realize the advantages, both scholastical and financial, of attendin an accredited Junior college and Prep school as day-hops. This group, more than ever this )ear, cooperated with the boarding students in all their undertakings and was largely represented in every scholastic and extra-curricula activity. The Day Students, because of their large number and great activitv, have become an important and necessary part of the school. [59] Till; Da r 1 — 1934 UNION BOARD Till, tm.il piiLilicition of tin. ' Dickinson Union, the othci.il moiuli-piccc tor the run- nini; events of the school, h.i.s just .ippe.ired making a total of six issues for the 1933-1934 volume. It has been the aim of the staff this year to publish a real student magazine — one that would embody every phase of the school ' s interests and activities, and one that would contain material as diversified as the interests of the stu- dent body. Special emphasis, however, was brought to bear upon the literary department which included short stories, poetry, reviews of books and current magazine articles, and feature articles; and upon the news department which should be given particular recog- nition this year for their really snappy columns. The staff his been unusually l.irge this year and each member has offered his unfailing support. The culmination of all the work was reached on Ma J when Professor George Camp presented a number of awards to the most active nv.-mbers of the staff. At tlvj same time the Editor-in-Chief, Robert Wharton, presented to the school a medal awardeil to the Union for third place in a contest sponsored by the I ' ennsvlvania School Press Association. The statt (eels than on the whole this has been a successful ear, but does not claim that the Union has .ichievcd the ultimate perfection it is capable of, for the school is growing, and we leave this further development to the coming classes. The Dart — 19 3 4 WOMEN ' S COOPERATIVE GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION THE purpose of the Women ' s Coopcr.uive Government Association is to control problems of student life which are entrusted to the organization, and to help stu- dents train themselves to be ideal citizens of the college community. It shall pro- mote student activities, college spirit, and tradition, and maintain cooperation between the student body, the faculty, administration, and trustees. The executive council, which is elected by the girls of the school, is made up of four boarding and four day student girls who are leaders in upholding the standard of the organization and of the school. The honor system is employed and a pledge Is signed by each member which obli- gates her to report herself in case of an offense against school regulations. Although most of the regulations and problems concern the boarding students, the day student counci l cooperates with the other council in carrying out the regulations for the da students.

Days of planning and unceasing attention to a multitude of details have gone into the structure of every page of this book, that it might be worthy of our class and an asset to our school. As in other years it is the purpose of this issue of the Dart to record the activiti. ' s and achievements of our class, and to serve as a medium in recalling the frlendsliips and the happy memories associated with our beloved Alma Mater. The staff desires with gratitude to acknowledge their indebtedness to Professor George Camp, Professor Francis Geigle, and to Professor Paul Smith, whose advice and criticism has been deeply appreciated; also to the student body for their suggestions and their cooperation all along the way. Not content, yet with some feeling of actual achievement, the 19 34 staff presents this Dart to you in hope that it may give to nian ' swlftlv-fading memories a little seeming of immortality.

It is true, that the Seminary football is being operated on a more conservative basis since there has been a complete abolishment of athletic scholarships. Wherever football was discussed during the 193 3 season, the achievements of Dickinson Seminary were rarely omitted as a predominant topic, and it was the consensus of expert opinion as the season progressed that the Gold and White was entitled to a rating on equality with the great Seminary teams of the past. ital in the lives of the lads of the nation. It is a laboratory demonstrate physical and moral courage, unselfishness, self-effacement. It gives boys a cause. Its field is the most world, where race, religion, politics, poverty, or riches cut no for what he does and for what he is. It also provides a all season, several million youngsters in this country are ootball field. Most of the touchdowns on college fields tie vest in some back yard. So long as the game is played r with the ideals and impulses of the amateur, so long as their lives and find them again in the life and spirit of le of football will endure. I would like to congratulate the student body for its loyal support this season. Thev showed a splendid spirit and I am sure the team was heartened by it. It has been a real pleasure to serve as coach of football at Dickinson Seminary the past year. There has been much loyal help and cooperation. Perhaps the rank and file of Seminary folks do not realize the interest and time which many of our boys have been giving to make their team TTie Champions of the State. There is a lof of com- radeship, a lot of warm fellow feeling in the team, and undoubtedly the football squad has done a great deal to help Dickinson Seminary generally. I want to commend every man on the team for the fine way he fought for the others. I want you boys to re- member this season for the many characteristics it has called forth. Characteristics that will be called forth many times in your later life, and you will be prepared to meet many difficult problems. Boys , I appreciate your cooperation, we had a great time together and I will always remember your fighting spirit and friendship. Sincerely, Eari Z. M(Kav.

Only two veterans started the season on the line. Staff Casse Stokes at left tackle, and they w re rewarded for their term of service captaincy. Oscar Shirey, a sub last year, made the grade as varsity j with George Reichan, of Duquesne, and Bill Westberg, of Grass Flats down from Jersey Shore to occupy the other berth at tackle. Charley 1 paired up with Cassell at end, and Gene Wilhelm, a Williamsport boy, position. The backficid was fashioned around Chris Ostby, local youtl a bit of football before he enrolled at Seminary last year. Jack knowledge of fundamentals was acquired in the few games he had Catholic High, turned out to be an excellent ball carrier, and Paul and Steve Babic, of Duquesne, were the blocking specialists and line The following boys who alternated with the regular in almost every game and often stole the spotlight were: Charley Miller, Howard Springman, and Howard Thomp- son, ends, and Bernie Dempsey and Lee Knauber, quarterbacks; 5( ' alter Dick of Re- hoboth, Delaware, and Seth Martin, of Avis, Pennsylvania, halfbacks. Frank O ' Brien, William Rothfuss, Robert Bubb, William Brassington, line men. Seminary opened the season by holding Mansfield Teachers College to a scoreless tie after Mansfield had previously played two ball games. The second game resulted m a 59-0 rout of Susquehanna University Junior Varsity, when Smyth scored three touchdowns and Ostby kicked five placements. York Collegiate Institute fell, 6-0, in the third game, and the winning streak mounted to three men when the Hilltoppers crushed Gettysburg Academy, 5 0-0. The only loss was suffered at the hands of Army Plebcs who punched out a 13-6 win after a bitter battle at West Point, in a valiant second half rally, Sem scored on a long forward pass, climaxing a steady march. First downs, 10-9, showed a close contest. But three days later the team came through with its biggest achievement of the year in nosing out Cornell Frosh, 7-(,, at Ithaca, when Charley Miller intercepted a pass and ran for a touchdown in the final period. 69 J TuL Dart — 1934 Tlic final game licrc with Dickinson College frosh ended 19-0 in Sem ' s favor with P.iiil Kitner scoring twice. Three weeks after the close of the season the Seminary players were honored guests at a public testimonial dinner at The Lycoming Hotel, when representatives of the citv joined in a fine tribute to the team. Carl Snavely, prominent college coach, was the principal speaker, and others who appeared on the program were: Dr. John W. Long, President of the school, Mortimer C. Rhone, Congressman Robert F. Rich, and Walter Malloy, who was chairman of the citizen ' s committee in charge of arrangements.

Although basketball is a sport, a game, there is involved in it a tremendous amount of work. There is genuineness about a man who is confronted with a task, and sets out to prepare himself for it. The hours of conditioning, hard, toilsome hours, are work during which those boys out there on the court live a kind of Spartan existence. The toil and labor lose many of their undesirable traits when the play starts. The exhil aration of feeling fit, the joy of competition, the love of the game wipe out the drudgery of practice sessions. It is a great thing to play. It is a greater thing to play hard. Hand in hand with hard work comes complete living. At times beset by difficulties it was part of the game, just as it is part of life, to carry on. During the months when the warriors of the wooden way held the spotlight, it was a peculiar joy and privilege to live with them. To you men on the basketball squad I am much in your debt. Daily I met you, worked, played, and lived with you, and daily I received new inspirations and greater hopes from you. Daily I fostered a deeper affection for you because you were so un- selfish about yourselves, so loyal to your mates and to this dear school. You came through unspoiled, vibrating with the fierce joy to work diligently, play fairly, and live rightly. I know you appreciated the loyalty of your student mates just as I did, and I feel sure that you were giving your best and at times more than your best because of it. So I salute you, gentlemen each. Sincerely, Paul E. Smuii.

This new rival has won the U. of P. tournament the last two years. Seminary downed Harrisburg Academy, 33-19. This game was clean and Smitty ' s Boys set a fast pace. Harrisburg could not penetrate the air-tight defense. The Cornell Freshmen yielded to Dickinson after an even struggle. The locals led in every quarter, and gained a hard-won victory, 41-36. In the fourth game the Gold and White tripped the Mansfield Teachers, 36-31. The varsity pulled the game out of the fire after the reserve had allowed a 1 5 point lead to dwindle to 2. In a game characterized by rough and tumble tactics on the part of both team-:, a handicapped Dickinson quintet lost to its rival, ii ' yoming Seminary, 48-36. Durmg a week-end trip the Hilltoppers added two more victories to their record. Harrisburg Academy and York Collegiate Institute both succumbed to the speed plays, the first 43-18, and the latter 38-1,9. Before their largest audience, the determined Dickinson Basketeers baffled the Wyommg Seminary Cagers on the Curtin Junior High floor, and won a sweet revenue 42-14. The Ridgway National Guards fell another victim to the advancing cohorts of Smitty, 46-37. The game was hard and fast. At Carlisle the Dickinson College J. V. ' s won a biased struggle by one point, 42- 41. Four varsity men were forced out on personals; 28 fouls were called on the locals with but 4 on the opponents. A splendid sportsmanlike Syracuse Freshmen quintet defeated a plucky Seminars aggregation. The most exciting game of the season was that with a fast, experienced West Chester Military Academv five. Sem won the contest in the last moments of ph- 38-35. For the second time of the season the Hilltoppers defeated the Mansfield Teachers 40-29. A fill-in game with the Hazleton Comets proved very entertaining. The scrappy visitors, with a spectacular dribbler and accurate shooting, lost to overwhelminiJ odds, 5 1-24.

Coach F. R. Geigle was welcomed at his first call by a squad of sixteen candidates. He has, as a nucleus, three men, who performed brilliantly last season, Thompson, dash- man; Hommel, distance-man; and Williams, pole-vaulter. The remainder of the squa.i includes, Shocker, Carlo, Reichan, Bubb, Mencer, Kitner, Westberg, Hoplcr, Gruver, Martin, Watkins, Stokes, Kling, Manager Dresser and Assistant Manager Long. The new men have shown sufficient ability to make a good rounded-out track team and hope to make a favorable showing in the Penn State College Inter-scholastic meet to be held on Mav 19. [74] The Dart — 19 3 4 BASEBALL T HE word baseball, no doubt, gives one the first impression of the coming of spring. It is America ' s national game and always an interesting sport in any section of the country. Baseball takes its place in the sport column as one of the finest games in competi- tive athletics. It affords many opportunities to develop the various types of character in our youth of today. In spite of a late start in the season the boys have shown a keen interest and an unusual amount of improvement over our teams of recent years. One can readily see the style and grace of the players while on the field and there is every indication that the boys will far exceed the expectations of some of the more pessimistic critics. There is a tremendous lot of experience in our squad. Boys who have played a bit of baseball in Sunday school league teams and the like, are a great asset to the team. This will be of value while they are on the field and when school is over, some of the boys will go out and play elsewhere, 5 hen they do, the memories of a fine team, of sensational games will always be with them. It would hardly be fair to give an exact estimation of the boys until they have been under the test of keen competition. No one can tell whether they are only average or exceptional by watching them now. They look fine, and it is hoped that with the loyal support they are given, they will come through victorious in every encounter. [75] T n h Dart — 1 3-1 6IRLS ' ATHLETICS GIRLS ' .ithlctics for tlic 1933-1934 se.ison began on the intra-niur.il basis. Tlic Gold and White teams fought and re-fought each other in tennis, volley ball, and other fall games. Interest was kept high by recording the ratings on a large th.irt which .ill could watch. With the coming of winter, sports changed, and basketball and swimming held the center place. Competitions took on an inter-collegiate aspect. For the first time in many years, the girls had an organized team in basketball .ind swimming. A short schedule of games was planned and carried out. On February 5, the basketball team went to Hugliesvillc where it met the high school team of that town, and lost by the small score of 13-12. Hughesville returned the game on February 14th and our team again suffered defeat, but we are proud of the way that our girls pla cd and the sportsmanship thc ' showed in these contests. On the 17th of February, the teams made a trip to Pcnn Hall at Chambersburg, where they met the Penn Hall girls in two events: basketball and swimming. The trip was one which will long be remembered by those who went. Although we lost both events, no one will forget the courtesies and the fine time that were shown to them at IVnn I Fill. Wc hope to lia c this team as our guests at the Seminary next year, and hope that we have starte d an annual exchange of competitions with this school. 76] The Dart 19 3 4 On March 6, the swimming team went to the Y. W. C. A. of WiUiamsport for a meet with that team. Handicapped by a small team, our girls put up a brave battle and lost by only three points. Our last scheduled basketball game was played in our gym with the Y. W. C. A. team, on March 12. We won this game, 20-18. To wind up the basketball season, the Sophomores on the squad played the Fresh- men. The Sophomores won and leave a challenge for the Freshmen to do as well next year. It is our hope that we will have more meets, and more successful meets, next year. We are confident of the future of our teams because of the fine spirit shown towards athletics this year and the excellent material that we will have to start our 1934-193? teams. The members of the basketball team were: A. Sinclair, B. Bush, J. Mencer, A. Thompson (Capt.), J. Williams, G. Duvall, H. Gray, E. Waldeisen, A. McKaig, and F. Williams, with Miss Dele as Coach, and E. Hauber, Manager. The swimming team was composed of the following girls: A. Krimm (Capt.), K. Rich, E. Snyder, M. Mallinson, M. Mosser, A. Bubb, H. Gray, D. McEwen, with Miss Delo as Coach, and G. Smith as Manager. 177} The D a r t — 1 9 3 78] AUTOGRAPHS AN ACKNOWLEDGMENT THE 1934 Dart herewith expresses its appreciation to those whose cooperation en- abled whatever success It may have attained — to the entire staff for its diligent labors, to the Faculty Adviser; to the advertisers and subscribers; and to t he business concerns with whom we worked, whose assistance on all problems greatly facilitated the publishing of this volume.
