Previously a college diploma usually meant an opportunity for pleasant and profitable employment. In fact one of the arguments for college attend- ance almost universally used was the increased earning power of the college graduate. During the last few years all this has been changed. Young people have found it difficult and in many cases impossible to get any kind of employment. Consequently they have been disappointed, disillusioned, and have suffered a distinct loss of morale. Their progress being impeded they are bewildered like someone who has lost his way. Hence the designation, The Lost Generation . Fortunately you, the members of the classes of 1935, are completing your work here at a time when economic conditions seem to be improving, when certain govern- mental policies seem to be bearing fruit. This may mean that when you are ready for your life work you will find something definite and desirable awaiting you. At least I sincerely hope so. But the hard lessons of the last few years which other young people have had to learn ought to provoke you to thought. There are abundant resources in our country and in the world to meet every need. Thoughtful people are asking, Why the need? Why the suffering? If you will address yourself to these problems instead of looking for a job already carved out and just to your liking, requiring a minimum of effort with good pay and a maximum of leisure time, you will not lack something to do. One of the great needs of society to-day is the pioneer spirit, initiative, independence, and creative effort. Are ye able to relinquish purple dreams of power and fame? That is your challenge as you face a world that needs all your abilities, all the service you can give. The hopes and good wishes of all your friends at Dickinson go with you.

Although trying to assume our best dignified manners, we found ourselves feeling very green and inexperienced as we wandered into the wrong rooms or came into classes late, with the plea that we had lost our way. Little did we dream, in our blissful innocence, of the schemes those treacherous Sophomores were planning in secret meetings to impose upon us. But after a few weeks of Freshman Rules — with green dinks and black ties, green ribbons, and black Stockings — we soon adjusted ourselves to our environment, and to the wishes of our oppressors. The first problem we had to face was the organization of our class, which took place at an early date. The leaders chosen for the year were: President, William West- burg; Vice President, William Gruver; Secretary, Virginia Farnsworth; Treasurer, Bruce Isaacson. Professor Skcath was elected our Class Adviser. Among the year ' s social events came the annual President ' s Reception where we were formally introduced to our professors. Later, the Chestnut Party served us a pleasant diversion from our classes — ■ but then they say Nature is a teacher in itself . The Greater Dickinson Banquet brought the reunion of many former students. Other successful social endeavors were the Halowe ' en Party, the Kid ' s Party, the Old Man and Old Woman ' s Party, and last but not least, the Freshmen Picnic at Wal- deisen ' s cabin. With Commencement came farewell to some and au revoirs to others, as we departed for our summer ' s vacation. But as September rolled around, we were not averse to returning to our books and former friends, with high hopes for the new year and the new acquaintances to be made. Meeting once more in a final effort to increase our knowledge at Dickinson, we elected the same officers as the previous year with one exception — Grace Duvall re- placed Virginia Farnsworth as Secretary. Dignity comes with tha passing of years. Those carefree Freshmen, now Sopho- mores, returned composed and reserved from their summer vacations, looking down on the new Freshmen as if they were microscopic. Our highest ambition was to make these Freshmen feel as uncomfortable and as humiliated as we had felt the previous year. Our second year proved even more interesting than the first, for we were more accustomed to College life and what was expcted of us. Taking part m the work of the school and in the many school activities such as athletics, dramatics, and recitals, the members of our class have made an outstanding record not only in extra curricular activities, but in scholastic achievement as well. Two more events will bring our happy years at Dickinson to a close — the presenta- tion of the class play, and then commencement, which will mark the end of many pleasant associations. May the memory of Dickinson linger long in our hearts, and her influence inspire us to strive in future years for our highest ambitions, knowing that they fall, and they alone, who have not striven .

It seemed to us that we, like Dante, were wandering through flades. Taken across the Styx by Cotty Blackwell, the ferryman, we saw Junie Miller (the admiral) scrubbing decks on a rowboat nearby. Arriving at the other side of the river, we met Van Beuren, the spirit of Hades itself, condemned to ride a motorcycle while shuffling a pack without aces. He was to be our guide. First he led us past the continually yapping three-headed dog, which turned out to be Isaacson, Luty, and Martin, welded together in eternal disharmony. Then we heard a shout of Watch Out! and a beer barrel came rolling by. Behind it was Moyer sentenced to roll it up and down hill forever. Then there came marching past us Waldeisen, Gehron, Hammer, and Belknap, weighted down with lead in their shoes, condemned to walk eternally. Behind them loped Helen Stein, turned into a panther, moving along with the feline grace which we recognized from former years. About this time Van Beuren, looking back at the panther woman, rode straight into a tree, his head smacking against it with a hollow pop. To our astonishment the tree was Gibson. Behind it was a desk at which Jack Smyth sat with a pad and pencil, writing over and over, S-M-I-T-H-, S-M-I-T-H. Then we started to help Van Beuren pick up his cards, and discovered that the joker was Gruver, the queen of hearts was Floyd Willirms, and the knaves were Bordner, Bubb, Pepperman, and Wollet. Presently we came to a set of twin mountains, and after climbing for almost three hours we reached the top, only to find that they were John Crook ' s shoes. We descended quickly to the plains below and saw mercury (formerly Dutch Gross) delivering the messages of the Gods. To our left appeared a gaping cavern, no — not a cavern but Aileen McKaig ' s laughing mouth. Then there came toward us Fred Wilson, wearing a raincoat. He told us that just beyond were Ann Boyce and Morgan Knapp, their noses caught in books, and Joe McCabe and John Long, dressed in cowboy suits and throwing the bull, as on earth. He turned back and caught sight of Bill Young, hat fastened to his head permanently, since he never took it off anyway. Van Beuren, stooped to pick a violet which was growing there, and when it didn ' t shrink we realized that it must be Helen Gray. Just then a strong wind came up and blew away the fog to the strains of the Alma Mater. Regretting that we hadn ' t seen the others in the class, we tried to bring the fog back, but it was no use. Well, perhaps we have done enough damage anyway, so we ' ll close. Affectionately yours.

From its many members have come contributions to the various school activities, to athletics both basketball and football, to music and to literary endeavor. Several students have shown considerable ability in acting and directing drama. On October 17, 1934, the first class meeting was held at which time these officers were elected to serve the year. President, Percy Smith; Vied President, Lucylle Dieffen- bacher; Secretary, Virginia Richmond; Treasurer, Eugene Springman. At a later meeting Mr. Francis R. Geigle was elected faculty adviser. This class has supported whole-heartedly every activity of the school during the year and are awaiting with keenest anticipation their next year at Dickinson. ( 36 ) Luy sXciy 19 3 5 v.t. m.

The girls showed that they, too, could play this game skilfully. While the boys won honor in the football and basketball games, the girls worked hard at selling hot dogs and lollipops to make money for the class. We had representation on the Greater Dickinson Banquet Committee, with Charles Swain as chairman and Dorothy Geiger as Secretary. Our school days will soon be over at Dickinson but the accomplishments of the class will not be forgotten.

He wrapped his dark heavy cloak more closely about him as he gazed into his mysterious crystal ball and viewed the forbidding future. The crystal filled with a whirling cloud of smoke which gradually settled into a definite picture. The low incessant beating of a tom tom came to the ears of the old maestro. He glimpsed an( African jungle scene in the midst of which Howard Brinton and Dick Dawson were preaching to the enrapt natives. The scene changed to a dreary school building, where Joyce Mumford was seen shaking her fist at the lazy students. In the same building Alabam was teaching gym classes, and a few blocks away sat Mary Helen Person still contemplating what to do with herself. The next scene was a cozy kitchen in which Alma Reeder was cooking; she seemed to be expecting some one home any minute. The crystal ball then became dark, with flashes of lightning illuminating a rapid succession of pictures — Katy Rich teaching music lessons, Don Knauber grinning maliciously as he yanked out people ' s tonsils and handed them to his assistant. Bob White, Dot Geiger still in school, Jack Byers a successful traveling salesman, Don Manno coaching a football team, and last but not least, Charles Swain sitting on a park bench. Smoke once more filled the crystal ball and gradually sifted away, leaving it clear. The old maestro. Doctor Savvy Ceesommore, stroked his beard wonderingly and hobbled off to bed chuckling at the mysterious twistings and turnings of fate.

Under the able direction of Mrs. Myrra Bates, this group of singers, representing the Vocal Department, has become very popular, due to the work it has been doing in, the many churches. Each Sunday evening, these singers have presented an Evening of Music at some church. By hard work and diligent cooperation they were able to obtain the black gowns worn in this picture. The school colors of gold and white add dignity and distinction to the organization. Appearances during the season include the following: Third St. M. E. Church; Mulberry M. E. Church; Grace St., M. E. Church; Immanuel Lutheran Church; Evan- gelical Lutheran Church, Muncy; St. Paul ' s Lutheran Church; Messiah ' s Lutheran Church; Newberry M. E. Church; High St. M. E. Church; Pine St. M. E. Church; First M. E. Church of Milton; Redeemer Lutheran Church; St. Paul ' s Evangelical Church. The personnel is as follows, left to right: Case, First Roll-.

They have worked hard and faithfully in preparing their programs, and as a result have made many successful appearances throughout the year. As a reward for the effort of each and every one, they made a trip to New York City, March 23, to attend a performance of the Metropolitan Opera Company.

It is sponsored by the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and its purpose is to endeavor to give students a new outlook on world affairs and diplomacy. The Carnegie Endowment has sent current literature for our use and sent an important French Speaker, Mr. de Lanoux, to speak to the college and to the club. At the meetings various topics of international interest were presented by the mem- bers. These Sunday afternoon meetings, besides being interesting, were of great educa- tional value. The officers are: President John W. Long, Jr.; Vice President, Neal Moyer; Sec- retary, Mabel M. Stewart; and Treasurer, Paul A. Ford. Dr. Leon W. Godshall, our adviser, introduced this club in the early part of the school vear and it has proven a most worthwhile organization in the college. (31) The DART THE COMMERCIAL CLUB THE Commercial Club began its second year of existence by electing the following officers: Roland (Dutch) Gross, President; Bruce Isaacson, Vice-President; Eleanor Gehron, Secretary; and Charles Luty, Jr., Treasurer. The first important event in a year of numerous and interesting activities was the big spaghetti party at Waldeisen ' s cabin. Outdoor sports of all varieties were in order — then the excellent dinner of spaghetti, meat balls, and coffee with delicious cakes. A tour, on December 21, to business establishments took us to the West Branch National Bank. There an official cordially demonstrated for us the clearing house system of this city. Then we were taken through the various bank departments and the vaults, which are very impressive in construction and operation. The red letter day, however, was February 7th, 193 5. In the morning we met at the Grit Publishing Company after a smart walk in zero weather. About forty mem- bers toured the building. In the commercial section they were shown the procedure of forming year-books, such as The Dart. The art department held keen attraction for many of the visitors. Other departments included in the tour were the newspaper section, the engraving, linotyping, and stereotyping rooms, and finally the enormous high speed presses. The same day at 7:00 P.M. the regular business meeting was held. We were favored, when the formal business had been disposed of, with a piano solo by Miss McCloud ' — followed by a delightful piano duet performed by the latter and Flash Gruver. The rest of the time was turned over to Dr. Godshall, the speaker of the evening, whose talk on Oriental Trade Practices was both educational and inspiring. Another attractive feature at a later meeting was talking pictures held in the Chapel. The president, speaking for the club, wishes to thank the advisers of the club, Mr. Geigle and Miss Delo, for their efforts in making this year so interesting and] en- joyable for the commercial students. (52) 19 3 5 THE THALIAN DRAMATIC CLUB T HIS marks the initial year of the Thalian Dramatic Club. Heretofore there has been no organized dramatic club in Dickinson Seminary. Thalia was the Greek muse of comedy, from which the club derives its name. A constitution was drawn up by the executive committee, composed of the four officers and two members at large. The purpose of the club is to promote an interest in the various phases of dramatic art. Although acting is the chief objective, there are other interests just as important, such as stage managing, directing, lighting, scene and costume designing, playwriting, and pantomime. Miss Charlotte A. Lane, head of the dramatic department of the school, organized the club and throughout the year acted as adviser. The membership list has forty names. This indicates an excellent interest for a club in its charter year. Dickinson may expe ct great things from the Thalian Dramatic Club in years to come. The officers elected were: James Bradficid, President; Alma Reeder, Vice-President; Virginia Richmond, Secretary; Harold Sheets, Treasurer. (53) The DART T JOHN WESLEY CLUB HE John Wesley Club is composed of all those who are definitely interested in Christian service. In the weekly devotional meetings, the club strives to enrich the spiritual life of each member, and also to enrich the life of the school through Christian fellowship. In addition to these meetings the club sends deputation teams into the different churches to conduct services. This gives the members a chance to gain valuable ex- perience, as well as to render a service. The officers for this year were John Ginter, President; Clyde Way, Vice-President, and Eugertha Hauber, Secretary. Professor Cautious H. Choate acts as adviser and friend to all club members. To the members of the club the close of this school year means the ending of many happy and worthwhile hours. One of the most cherished memories of our school life will be that of the John Wesley Club. (54) 19 3 5 Y. W. C. A.

W. also sponsors with the Y. M. a get acquainted party the first week of school, and a Hallowe ' en part ' . ' in October. Y. M. C. A. Allan H. Constance ------- President Paul Ford --------- V ' rc President Neal Moyer --------- Secretary Harold Sheets --------- Treasurer In an effort to emphasize the C in their name, the Y. M. C. A. sponsored a weekly prayer service, held each Tuesday night in the boy ' s dorm. The service was of the informal type and usually consisted of a scripture reading followed by a short prayer by each of the boys present. Six of the boys also attended the annual conference for college Y. M. C. A. ' s in this section, held this year at Gettysburg. The Y also opened its room on fifth hall for the entertainment of the students. Equipment for ping pong was supplied by the club.

Each group has an executive council, elected by the students which makes the laws and punishes offenders. The boarding student ' s council, which is composed of a preparatory, freshman, and sophomore representative in addition to a president and secretary, strives to promote student activities, to create a spirit of cooperation among the students, and to encourage a friendly relationship beween student and faculty . Officers Anna Boyce, PraiJent Jeanne Young, Secretary Alma Reeder, Sophomore Reprcsentatiie Dorothy Maurer, Freshman Representative Catherine Rich, Preparatory Representative DAY STUDENT COUNCIL The day students have reorganized a student council which meets on the first Wednesday of each month. The purpose of this group is to obtain a more cooperative spirit among the day student girls.

We are sure that we will never forget the friendships formed here, living, working, playing together. The red brick building in the south-west corner had a great gang this year. Some say the name Angel Factory is a misnomer, but we weren ' t such ,- bad bunch at heart — we just looked tough. The second floor fought the most, had the best marks, and the most demerits. Can we ever forget those tussles between Czar Luty and Cottie Blackwell? And did Cottie take a beating! Then there was Pinchy Martin hoarding his pennies, nickles and dimes in the back issues of Time Magazine. That ' s all right, Scth, Rocke- feller probably got his start that way. Van Beuren (alias Joe Priff) and Smyth were the night-hawks. They never started to study until about 10 o ' clock, and no one ever siw them in bed before 1. And then there were the third floor Romeo ' s, Gruver and Isaacson — just a couple of gigolos. Ike always was a swell dancer. Gross, Moyer, Gibson, and Westburg were the studious quartet. Philadelphia, Erie, Crisfield, and Flatgrass contributed these prize beauties to the Angel Factory. Bill Sprout didn ' t come ' till the second semester, but it didn ' t take him long to learn the tricks and become one of the gang. The toughest job in the building was getting Chatham up for an early class. It took the combined efforts of everyone to do it. And last but not least, come Garson and Williams, both Charter members of the Tall Story Club. Our prize exhibit — Chatham and Garson in the same room having an argument. Much better than a circus, we assure you. Our congratulations and compliments to the most patient people in the world! Dean, Mrs. Cornwell, and Dan, the Head Coach, Mrs. McKay, and Betsy Lee had a great deal to put up with this year, but they stood the test nobly.

Such a task has not been an easy one to achieve. It is the purpose of this issue to give such an account of the social and scholastic activities, class achievements, athletic events, and lasting friendships, that we will always have pleasant memories as we leaf through these pages in the years to come. Our theme, The Future Dickinson , has been carried out throughout this book with careful consideration of designs. The entire staff worked hard and a fine spirit of cooperation existed at all times. The work was not easy but it was extremely interesting in all its phases. With deepest gratitude the Staff wishes to express its thanks to Miss Child, Miss Delo, and Professor Skeath, without whose advice and aid such a publication would not have been possible; also to all the students and faculty who have helped in any way in making this production a success. . Having done our best, it is with pride and a feeling of achievement that we present this Dart to the School, in hope that it mav keep our memories from fading into for- gotten dreams. (65) UNION BOARD THE editors and contributors to the Union this year have striven to attain two major objectives: to publish a magazine which will be an aid and a recreation to the students, and one which will reflect credit upon our school. The editors were fortunate in having some very faithful contributors in all the departments. Special attention was brought to bear on the literary department which contained many fine short stories, poems, and book reviews. The news section was also meri- torious, having snappy write-ups and interesting interviews. The staff was very fortunate in having as adviser. Miss Ruth Child, who did much toward making the magazine a success. This year an opportunity was given the students to express their opinions regard- ing the Union. Many worthwhile criticisms and suggestions were submitted, which may prove of value to next year ' s Union board. TTie board this year has done its best to attain its chosen aims, but leaves to succeeding years the task of attaining still greater perfection. (66) ATHLETICS (67) In recognition and appreciation of generous and protracted services for the greater glory of Dickinson on the athletic field and of sympathetic and friendly council on the campus, this section is dedicated to EARL Z. McKAY Director of Athletics T The DART COACH ' S MESSAGE HERE is no question in the minds of those who are closely connected with recre- ational work that recreation is educative and that participation in athletics is a mighty factor in the formation of character. We are realizing as never before the importance and the necessity of athletics in a modern school system, whether it be in the high school, preparatory school, college, or university. We are finding with alarming suddenness that individuals are coming to adult life with inferior bodies, deficient vigor, and lack of control. One cannot be happy and contented unless he possesses bodily health, and no person can be of his greatest usefulness to society unless he has strength and endurance. Proper and efficient organized athletics play a vital part in training for worthy citizenship. It is beyond argument that no other branch of school activity calls forth such spontaneous enthusiasm of the youth as participation in wholesome athletics. An athletic program should be respected and wholly supported by every member of the school faculty, be it high school or university; it is the athletic program more than any other course or activity in a college curriculum that develops traits of sports- manship, leadership, loyalty, cooperation, and team work. Certainly these traits are to be desired in future citizens. Closely connected with good citizenship is the question of worthy use of leisure time. Today the program of athletics must provide physical skill for use of leisure hours, when not in school, if it is to be a vital part of the athlete ' s life. It is essential that this program include all branches of sports that will continue to offer enjoyment after maturity. The program such as has been set up here in our own Dickinson provides an opportunity for the individual to take part in competitive sports which are physically wholesome, mentally and socially sound, and stimulating and satisfying to the individual. Not only is the athlete gaining physically but he is gaining mentally, socially, and morally. Athletics also includes teamwork, wholesome play, and co- ordination. The athlete is taught service to society now and in the future, fair dealing, or rather the give and take principle, and the knowledge of how to take care of his body and how to live the right kind of a healthful life which will set an example for his associates in and out of school. The athlete undergoes this training at a time in his life when it sets its stamp indeliby upon his mind and character. Therefore, he should be encouraged by his fellow students and the entire administration of the school or college he represents, because through his physical exercise, there is a natural increase in his strength, vitality, endurance, psychomotor skills, and resistance to disease. Such improvements in phy- sical health are naturally of great value, in proper balance and relationship. Such physical improvements, however, unless carried on concomitantly with development of admirable motivation for the use of improved skill and strength in ways socially useful and ethically sound, can be, and often are, unfortunate and perhaps a positive (70) 19 3 5 dis-service and d.ingcr to the individu.il and society. The .itlilcte, by the very Improve- ments in physical health and strength, which have resulted from participation in athletics, may become only a more effective gangster and criminal unless he is accepted in school activities which will ' develop other sides of his character. Athletics bring into existence a fine camaraderie of spirit as well as utilizing the competitive strain which so typifies the normal individual. In athletics there is a necessity for absolute unity of thought and action which ultimately breaks down class differences. We must, through athletics, build intelligence, character, and physical soundness, and develop volitional power. What shall it profit a community if it gain riches and lose the health of its own boys and girls? The head, the heart, and the hand all need train- ing, to the end that the individual may have a keen intellect, a sound character, and an active, healthy, and enduring body. In other words, it is my idea and belief that a sound mind and a sound body are necessary one to the other, and it is the duty of ath- letics to slight neither, but to coordinate the two into a harmonious whole. Earl Z. McKay VARSITY D CLUB MUCH of the happiness of school life depends upon the harmonious relationship of the faculty and students. While the matter has not become serious in this school, it has been felt for some time the necessity of a student organization to foster this wholesome feeling of good will. Furthermore all student activities need 1 certain group to initiate them, to foster them and give them the necessary impetus on the road of success. It is leadership of this type that is seriously needed to stimulate and round out the extra-curricular activities of Dickinson. So it is realizing the ne:d for such an organization that the Varsity D Club was organized the latter part of this year. Men who have a major letter in some sport are eligible and all former lettermen become honorary members. Tlius a large body of alumni will again be in contact with the school. Although the organization is still in its infancy and its voice has not yet been heard, it will undoubtedly take its place next year as the leader of student activities. The ideals and purposes of this organization are to encourage school spirit, in- crease interest in all worthwhile school activities, and work in cooperation with the administration to make the campus life richer and more enjoyable to all. It is with these ideals that the Varsity D Club becomes an active factor in Dickinson life and it is the sincere belief of ail, that these aims will be realized.

Another football season approaching! The long grind of training season opened with thirty men reporting to Head Coach McKay. The lack of experienced material was evident from the beginning, with only 9 members of last year ' s squad reporting. After a two week ' s drilling in fundamentals, the team was ready to launch upon one of the stiffest schedules any Dickinson team has ever attempted. The season was inaugurated in spectacular fashion against the Hobart Frosh team. Although a little nervous in the early stages of the game, during which Hobart ac- counted for a six pointer, the Dickinsonians settled into their stride, and evened up the score in the third quarter. Both teams played hard ball for the remainder of the game but neither was able to score again. With the first game over, the team journeyed to Syracuse University to meet their strong freshmen eleven. Although our men were forced to swallow a 20-0 defeat, in the hands of a better and much bigger team, the score docs not at all indicate the brand of football played by our boys. Following this game, the team journeyed to State College to encounter the equally strong Penn State Frosh. The game was nip and tuck during its early stages with neither team able to gain any decided advantage, until State, through its seemingly endless stream of substitutes, over-powered Dickinson and scored thirteen points to our none. In the second home game of the year, the Dickinsonians proved to be much too powerful for a scrappy Scranton Keystone team. The boys were able to gain at random, but owing to the slippery field tallied only thirteen points to their opponent ' s zero. On the next Saturday, the Mansfield Teachers eked out, on their own field, a 14-7 win over our boys. Both teams played a fast, hard type of ball . nd the closely fought game was in doubt until the final whistle. On November 7, at West Point in a steady downpour, Dickinson held a well- drilled Army Plebe team to a 13-0 score. The scoring for the day ended after the Plebes made a touchdown in each of the first two periods. After that the ball alternated between the two teams, with neither possessing enough power to push over another touchdown. Homecoming Day, on November 17, did not prove as successful as some had hoped. The largest sport crowd in years had assembled to watch the Catholic Univer- sity Freshmen tangle with our boys. School spirit ran high. At the half time the score stood 14-6 with Dickinson on the long end. But the terrific power and size of the Washington team began to tell, and a sustained last half drive netted them 20 (7i) 5 ,1 ' ii R i Dra BiB t Sf w— niETEBjl The DART points and the game 2 6-14. The weak and crippled Dickinson team put up a great battle, however, and gave every evidence of their good condition and careful trainmg. With this homecoming game, the curtain was drawn down on a football season none too succesful as far as the record of games won and lost goes. But the team had played hard football whether on the long or short end of the score, displaying, at all times, fine sportsmanship and an ideal spirit. SQUAD STATISTICS Name No. Position Age Wt.

' j|; bSS (75) The DART BASKETBALL THERE are only a few times in the history of a school that it can pay tribute to a truly great athletic team. So it is with pride that we salute Coach McKay and his men, the Dickinson team of 1935, v.ho have brought glory not only to themselves but also to the school they represent. The outstanding feature of this year ' s team was not its sensational shooting or equally remarkable defensive work as much as it was its consistent team work. The five varsity men, all basketball stars of the first magnitude in their own right, forgot their individualities and functioned as a unit. Their passing attack was breath- less to watch; they were magicians with the ball, every one. And then back of the varsity, as back of every great team, were the dependable substitutes. Each of these lads was able to step in at any time and capably take the place of any of the varsity players. This unusual reserve strength was an important contributing factor to the successful season. Of the men reporting to Mr. McKay at the start of his first season as basketball coach, five were veterans from last year ' s squad. The prospects were good but much credit must be given to Coach McKay who fashioned them into actual champions. The attitude of the boys themselves was of the best. The season opened at home against Scranton-Keystone Junior College. The Dickinson team exhibiting mid-season form, took the visiting aggregation 47-16. After handing a remarkably aggressive Alumni five a 49-26 beating on the next Friday night, the Gold and White journeyed to Ithaca and went down to defeat at the hands of a very strong Cornell freshman team, 34-24. The McKaymen were plainly off in all departments of the game and never really got their powerful offense under way. They gave every evidence of their recovering from this set-back by trouncing, to the tune of 57-33, the Bucknell Freshmen team on the following Friday night. That same week-end they dealt with St. Thomas Freshmen in like manner, in another home game, defeating the Scranton boys 45-21. The Dickinsonians had now hit full stride, and on the following Friday, on the Seminary floor took, without any trouble, Bucknell Junior College, 49-14. A game scheduled with Mansfield Teachers College was cancelled because of an auto- mobile accident en route to Mansfield which involved three of the varsity men. The following week the Teachers were defeated with little trouble 48-21, by the crippled Dickinsonians. The next week the Gold and White, now fully recovered, met their strong tra- ditional rival from Wyoming Seminary in a nip and tuck game that had the fans in a continual uproar. Dickinson came from behind in the last quarter to win a mem- orable 49-47 victory. The following evening after regulars had rolled up a safe margin, the second team ran up the score to 70 points allowing a weak Rehobeth Beach team only 32 points. (76) 19 3 5 In a mid-week engagement the team made a quick trip to Carlisle and brought back the scalp of a high touted Dickinson College Freshman team for a seventh straight win with a score of 56-31. The return game with Wyoming was disastrous to the Seminary basketcers. Play- ing without the services of Don Manno, stellar guard and handicapped by the small floor, the WiUiamsport boys accepted a 44-40 defeat, though only after a hard battle. With the season rapidly drawing to a close the Gold and White machine warmed up for the Penn State game by taking Cazenovia Seminary 59-33. Then came the big day. The boys, primed for the battle of their lives, journeyed to State College where they reached the season ' s peak by dazzling a strong Penn State Freshman team with their bewildering passing attack. At the end of the game the score stood 32-19 favor Dickinson, the first victory in history over its ancient rivals, truly a crowning event for a great season. Then in an unofficial post-season game Dickinson defeated the Rehobeth Beach team on the latter ' s home floor, 72-24. What more need be said? The achievements above, of 13 wins against two defeats, speak for themselves. The powerful offense rolled up a 754 point total, an amazing average of 50 points a game, more than a point a minute! At the same time the equally powerful defense held the opponents to 430 points. Truly a great team! Dickinson is proud of it. (77) The DART (78) J 19 3 5 THE BOYS Editor ' s Note; These articles were prepared by Coach McKay as a tribute to the greatest basketball team in the history of Dickinson. Bernard Dempsev, Jr. Co-Ccip iiin — I ' muiirJ Peanuts greatness is best told bv the men who played against him. The ' called him a one-man riot. In aggressiveness and offensive range he outranked his field, and his keen analysis of opposing tactics was rarely wrong. Add to these qualities his speed, dur.ibility and great spirit of teamwork and the sum equals All-America plus. Howard J. Springman, Jr. Cu-Ctipfaln — Confer Hod was the hup of Dickinson ' s marvelous team — a player with a great fighting heart and unusual mechanical skill in the fine points of the game. He fed his men faultlessly, out jumped every man he faced, and the manner in which he guarded his opponents was the outstanding performance of a genius. Eugene H. Springman Forward Chick , the wasp-waisted lad from Williamsport, was the outstanding climax scorer of a fine season. He was great in the pinches — the personification of basket- ball instinct. Three Word Springman. His scoring record was perfect against any team we played. He passed the ball and shot baskets superbly. He was in the pink of condition at all times — par excellence all the way, in victory or defeat, in any kind of going. Charles W. Luty, Jr. Guard Chuck , Dickinson ' s triple threat guard, topping a brilliant record of smooth play even greater than his effective 1934 performance, was unanimous choice of all opponents everywhere. Agile and swift, Chuck was past master of every essential of team play. From any angle on the floor he [huscd, f.l}ot, and dribbled the ball with expert accuracy. He worked tirelessly — a forty minute man. We will not see his equal soon again. Don Manno Guard In Donnie we have a basketball version of the powerhouse of a powerful team. Manno, a huge, fast man, intercepted all opponent ' s passes, broke up their offense before it could get started — yet that ' s not half his story. He took that tip-off in every game, was a thunderbolt when the ball was tossed up — passed, dribbled and shot baskets like a demon. I rate Manno: The guard without a flaw. (79) The DART Frank O ' Brien Forward Frankie is another lad who receives my praise and tribute for grooming and helping to perfect a marvelous piece of mechanism such as we had on the court this year. A wide-roving, gambling play wrecker, Frank did the work of two men all season — a constant threat with the ball and a good defensive man. He had the speed, the skill, and the fine spirit that mark the great men of the game. Gordon T. Lepley Guard Gordie is the man who made our so-called one man riot — His daily prac- tices helped Dempsey more than one could imagine — close guarding, quick moving, slick passing, and although not a spectacular shot, he was consistent enough to keep Peanut on his toes. Now that the records are complete Gordie ' s real ability is shown — a better-than-average basketball player. Bruce Isaacson Center — Forivard Ike was versatile, and kept the regulars going at top speed all season. Gripping a ball in each hand made his work invaluable. Maneuvering the ball at top speed and feeding his men was a great asset. Hod can say that Ike gave him worthwh,ile workouts that proved useful in every department. He was the keystone of the second team. A hard worker never fails — Aces to you kid. Paul Kitner Guard Kit always fights to the end — Although not a polished ball player he has . ' .bly assisted in making our men what they were. He was always willing — a sure fire and an ace with the gang. A hard worker — ■ no fears — easy going, but he was per sistence personified. Glennon a. Blackwell ' Manager Cottie was an ideal manager. He performed his various duties faithfully and well, but more important, he kept the team in the best of spirits with his never-failing humor. Because of this, he was as much a part of the team as any of the players and just as great a factor in the successful season. (SO) 19 3 5 BASEBALL THUS far this year, the baseball prospects are excellent. A large squad hearkened to Coach McKay ' s call for candidates with a number of men reporting from last year ' s squad. Therefore, the team will again have the services of Gibson on the mound, O ' Brien, Dempsey, and Martin in the infield, and Young, Wilson, and Spring- man in the outfield. Besides this wealth of experienced material, there are Lepley, £. Springman, and Heverly who will probably be the new-comers on the varsity. In Bassler, Thomas, Updegraff, Sensor, White, and McBride, Coach McKay has discovered a source of dependable reserve strength. The team played one practice game against the Williamsport Grays, who after a hard battle subdued the less experienced Seminary nine. Another game is scheduled for May 11, when the team meets the Penn State Freshmen. Plans have been completed for two games with Wyoming Seminary, while arrangements are being made for an encounter with Bucknell. However, it is hardly 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 good and it is hoped that they will come through victorious in every other encounter. (81j The DART GIRLS ' ATHLETICS THE athletic program for the girls of Dickinson Junior College was started in the early fall with Volley Ball, Swimming, Tennis, and Hiking as the major sports. Basketball was started at an early date with one-fifth of the girls enrolled reporting lor practice. Those selected for the first squad were: Myrtle Ellen Bryan, Captain; Floyde Williams, Kathleen Hoffman, Dorothy Mather, Mary Helen Person, Sara Campbell, Grace Duvall, Aileen McKaig, Jeanne Young, Thurze Bakey, Joyce Mumford, and Eugertha Hauber, Manager. The following basketball games were scheduled and played during the winter months: ScbcJiilc Date Opp. Team Dec. 14 Shamokin Jan. 12 Elmira Tan. 24 Montoursville Feb. 2 Penn Hall Feb. 4 Blue Triangle Feb. 13 Montoursville Feb. 20 Blue Triangle Feb. 25 Hi-Tri Feb. 28 Hughesville Mar. 4 Hi-Tri Mar. 11 Hughesville Mar. 13 Montoursville Alur S core D.

The opponents for the first j nme were a bit too difficult for the newly organized squad and they lost to Shamokin. But the girls made a better showing at Elmira, making 14 of their 16 points in tlie second half, and only losing by a bare three point margin. In the first game with Montoiirsville the score was tied at the half, but the Sem. outplayed their opponents and made a grand rally to finally win out. The next game with the girls of Penn Hall, was exciting but rather ill-matched. After this defeat the girls completed their schedule with eight straight victories. In several of these games, the coach was able to substitute players, giving the whole squad a chance to play. The games with Hughesvillc were very close as was the one with Montoursville Alumni. This latter game was one of the most exciting of the season. At the first quarter the score was 8-7 in favor of Montoursville. At the half it was 13-12 still in favor of the opponents. Dickinson tied the score 19-19 in the 3rd quarter and then, with Williams out on fouls Alabam made several unbelievable shots. Through fine team work the girls finalh- rallied to win the game. A fine ending for a suc- cessful season. All the girls are to be commended for their good work during the season. Ala- bam Bryan and Floyde Williams were the star forwards of the season, Alabam being high scorer. Bett ' s Hoffman made a nice showing in the last game with Mon- toursville. Grace Duvall and Aileen McKaig were steadfast in their guard positions and their consistent playing was a large factor in the successful season. The center positions were played very well by Thurza Bakey, Dot Mathers, Sara Campbell and Mary Helen Person, who alternated. Joyce Mumford and Jeanne Young served very ably as substitutes in several games. A swimming meet was held in February with the girls from Penn Hall Junior College. The girls on the swimming team are: Robbinnette Rogers, Ellen Snyder, Anna Hayes Bubb, Myrtle Ellen Bryan, and Helen Gray. There were two Senior Life Savers on the team this year, Robbinnette Rogers and Helen Gray having passed the Red Cross Life Saving Examination. Myrtle -Ellen Bryan is a qualified Red Cross Examiner. Bowling and ice skating were also available for those girls who desired to par- ticipate m these sports. A May Day program was given May 2 5 under the auspices of the girl ' s physical education department. The program was something different in which an English May Fete was presented. The queen and her attendant, who were selected by the girls, were Blanche Belles and Joyce Mumford. The court was very colorful and danced the traditional May Pole Dance in honor of their queen. Other dances included milk maids, peasants, Pierrot and Pierrette, a Dutch boy and girl, the foresters and the entire program enlivened by the antics of the jester. All the girls were used in some capacity or other. If not in the dances, they were on committees. Miss Delo, the director of girl ' s athletics planned the Fete and delegated the various tasks and dances. Eugertha Hauber was general manager of the May Day activities, Ann Boyce, Chairman of the costume committee, Kathleen Floffman, Chairman of the properties committee, and Mr. Harry Welliver, Jr., a member of the faculty, had charge of the music. It can truly be said this May Day Fete was a grand success! Miss Eleanor Delo is the faculty member in charge of the department of girl ' s athletics. She has been assisted this year by Myrtle Ellen Bryan, a student, who has had considerable training in physical education work. Much credit for the amazing rejuvenation of girl ' s athletics at Dickinson must be given to the cooperation of these active leaders.

We have gone a long way toward perfecting our Ice Cream— and no flavors are more delicious than those to be had in— r ICE CREAM THE TASTE TELLS The DART F INE QUALITY PRINTING is nowhere more essential than in the college annual. The story told by the copy and enqravings is worthless unless the printed pages provide eloguent testimony of its truthful reproduction of campus life. Production of out- standing printing depends upon the masterful handling of such technical subtleties as presswork, make-ready and the choice of color and ink. Consistently good printing has been a primary reason for the selection of our organization as the printers of the 1935 DICKINSON DART and many other ann uals. And in addition each Staff has had an interested advisory service— -thoroughly understanding their reguirements and representing an organization capable of meeting them.
