THEME T IS true that Greater Dickinson has become an overworked and almost trite expression, but the years 19 38 and 19 39 have seen such complete and rapid changes that a Greater Dickinson now seems like a concrete reality instead of the far-off vision which it resembled in the past. With this thought in mind, the editors of the 19 39 Dart have used as the theme of the year- book The Greater Dickinson and they sincerely hope that the Dart will be a lasting memorial both to the actual accomplishment of the work itself, and to the spirit which motivated the work. 46301 THE PRESIDENT AND HIS MESSAGE Classes of 1939, Congratulations! It is your good fortune to have attended Dickinson at a time when dreams of years have been coming to fulfillment. The years 1938 and 1939 will long be remembered at Dickinson as important years: not merely as a time of fulfillment but also as the beginning of larger things. You have not sat in the gallery but rather you have been in the parade. You can trulv say all of which I saw, part of which I was. Other duties have prevented my working as closely with you and therefore coming to know you as intimately as most previous classes, but what contacts and associations I have had have been most pleasant indeed. I hope therefore you will permit the following observation. We are apt to think of college strictly as preparation for life. It is more than that — it is life. Every experience is a preparation for that which is to fol- low ; high school, college, the first job — all are preparation for that which is ahead. And you are as truly living now as you will ever live. Would you know what the future has in store for you? Would you know what your life is to be? Then in retrospect study seriously what life here has meant. Unless some new factors enter your life what has been is an index of what may be. Unless there is some new strengthening of the will, some clearer vision, some stronger sense of duty, if you have not measured up to your hopes and ideals here you are apt to continue to fall short. If, on the other hand, you have merited and received the approval of your classmates as indicated by class honors and responsibilities, unless there is some weakening of the will, some dimming of the vision, some loss of a sense of duty, you may expect to continue to enjoy the confidence and appreciation not only of your college classmates but of all with whom you meet and mingle in the world outside classic halls. I sincerely wish for each one of you this merited approval which is possible in a larger or smaller degree to all. Your friend. BOARD OF DIRECTORS Hon. Robert F. Rich Mr. Charles E. Bennett Rev. a.

President Ruth Rein . - . - _ Vice-President Dorothy Schulman - . - . Secretary Daniel Collins ----- Treasurer ' h CLASS HISTORY REBELLIOUS were the Freshmen of 1938. They uniformly protested to the prolonged Freshmen customs. The storm calmed for a period in which Ray Flanders was selected to represent this group. During their Freshman year the new- comers displayed talent which was acceptable to the IRC, Dra- matic Club, and the French organizations. Vernon Gooderham volunteered one day in ' 38 to make an announcement in as- sembly and he is still the news commentator for every organi- zation in ' 39. Yes ' 39. The Freshmen are now the Seniors. No time wasted in this school. Ray Flanders again was elected president of his class. With his efficient woman in politics . Ruth Rein and script girl. Dorothy Schulman he had plenty of assistance. Then too, there was the collector of revenues, Dan Collins. At one of the first social events, the Chestnut Party, the Sophs did not appear to be the victors so we will let it go by saying — a good time was had by all. The President ' s Re- ception was no longer a novelty for this class but there were still many who came to get re-acquaint ed with the faculty. Of course, this year the greatest Dickinson Banquet was held. The class participated in the serving, entertaining and — feasting. Also we have been the supervisors in the building of a new. Greater Dickinson. Our activities paralleled those of the new chapel closely, and as we grew in stature and favor in the sight of God and man , the blueprints of the buildings and grounds did also. As the bricks and girders went to gether to form this lovely hall, so we piled up facts and knowledge to form prospec- tive graduates. Sixteen In the Spring a young lady ' s heart turns toward May Dav. This year the May Queen and her Maid of Honor were both from this class. A critical moment occurred. The major situation was, would there be a prom or would there not be a prom. ' ' It was the class of ' 39 who campaigned for support and as a result the prom was again a gala event . As a climax to the year the Senior Class presented Noel Coward ' s I ' ll Leave It To You . And it was in the short time remaining that everyone let the other person bid them adieu , auf wieder sehen or mostly just good- bye . As final exams approached there was great haste and fretting to get all back work cleaned up and to dig in to prepare for the brain teasers. As usual they made a big hit with everybody. ■ ' ■ ■ 1 Seventeen Charlotte AdeliMAN A. S. i4 merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance.

I Twenty-live FRESHMAN CLASS CLASS OFFICERS Frank Schneider - - . . . President Janet Stratton - . - - ice- President Helen English ----- Secretary Grover Powell ----- Treasurer At ' IIj CLASS HISTORY THE month of September. 1938, saw not only the launching of the Greater Dickinson Building Program but the launch- ing of what we consider to be the greatest Freshman class to enter Dickinson ' s halls. One of the first great undertakings of our class was the election of our officers. After the votes were counted it was found that Frank Schneider had been elected President; Janet Stratton, Vice-President; Helen English, Secretary; and Grover Powell, Treasurer. After enduring the jibes and taunts and hazing of the Sophomore class and coming through with flying colors, we be- came full fledged students of Dickinson. Then v e astonished the whole School by breaking all precedents and winning all the events at the annual Chestnut Party held at Kiwanis. Everyone had an unforgettable amount of fun, but the Sophomores were somewhat dismayed a few weeks later to see the name of the Freshman Class engraved on the Chestnut Roll of Honor. Tiventy-six Every major and minor activity in the School saw some Freshman starring in it. In sports, we had football, basketball and baseball men. Our names appeared on the spelling team and the Oratorical Contest. The Dart and UNION staffs welcomed many Freshmen, eager and willing to learn the secrets of publishing a school magazine. The fraternities, clubs, committees, plays, and social ac- tivities of the School also received their quota of Freshmen. And with the exams as a finale for this great year. we. the Freshman Class, close our books and eagerly await the next year when we, as Sophomores, can achieve even greater victories. % Twenty -seven SENIOR PREPARATORY CLASS CLASS OFFICERS Kenneth StoFER President Joseph HeeNEY - . - - Vice-President Jo Ellen Mackenzie - - - Secretary John J. Freeman ----- Treasurer l i,; UNDAUNTED by the records of previous classes, this year ' s Senior Preparatory Class forged ahead in every respect to b ecome one of the outstanding organizations on the cam- pus. The election of officers was somewhat delayed, coming shortly before the Christmas recess. At this time, being very well acquainted with each other, we voted for the candidates for the four major offices. The seats of Vice-President, Treas- urer, and Secretary were undecidedly taken by Joe Heeney, Jack Freeman and Jo Ellen MacKenzie, respectively. As for the office of President, there were a few more votes cast than number in the class, hence, the election for that office was declared void and we voted again. Kenneth Stofer was finally elected President. Hardly time enough for the officers to settle in their seats, Christmas vacation came from which we all returned ready to make the new year a success. Calling in our members who had become active in other organizations such as Y. W. C. A., Y. M. C. A., choir, dramatics, football, basketball, and other clubs, we had a large meeting deciding on dues and pictures for the Dart. The next big event was the Greater Dickinson Banquet in which our class was fully represented. After spring vacation the remaining activities that we took part in were the oratorical contest, the Senior Prom, May Day, and baseball, all of which served to break up the monotony of study. Exams brought the year to a close, and now as alumnus we hope to return some day and reminisce of our pleasant ex- periences we had at Dickinson, and to recall that great Class of 39. Tu- ' enly eight CLASS PROPHECY WHEN Dickinson ' s 1939 Senior Preppers were selected from among all the graduating classes of Prep schools in our country as the class most likely to succeed we were greatly flattered and surprised. However, as we sur- vey the illustrious group of former classmates who are gathered here for a re- union, we realize only too well that we have proved ourselves worthy of that title. First of all. we notice George Long, who is now head of the English De- partment at one of the best universities in the east. George also used to teach French, but he found it to his advantage to stick to his native language. In the world of sport, some of our classmates have been eminently success- ful. For instance. Joe Heeney has high hopes of leading his baseball team to another world championship. Joe is a player-manager, and last year he was one of the catchers selected to play in the Dream Game . However, we hear that Joe plans to re- tire from active competition after the end of this baseball year, in order that he may spend more time with his wife and thirteen children. Jack Freeman and Ken Stofer, Dickinson ' s touchdown twins, are still playing together. We were all proud of them when they were both selected for the All-American team three years in succession. Now both Freeman and Stofer are entering upon their tenth year as quarter and halfback, respectively, of the best pro-football team in the country. Dean Fawcett and Paul Weidler. after leaving college as the most sensational track stars of a decade, and shattering four world ' s records in the 1944 Olympic Games, have finally gone into business and are partners in the firm of Fawcett and Weidler. Inc., with offices in Williamsville. Montoursport. Yew Nork, and Hongkong. Two members of our class have been very successful as musicians. Bill Stone. Dickinsons Paderewski. is now the conductor of the Philadelphia Sym- phony Orchestra. It is rumored that nature has taken drastic measures to elimi- nate some of Bill ' s hair; in fact, he is now quite bald. Maxwell Hoadley, better known as satchel-mouth has just finished his most recent movie, and wc are all anxiously waiting for it to be released. Mr. Hoadley is generally recognized as the world ' s greatest baritone. Now that television has entirely supplanted the radio, we are well repre- sented in that field by Bill Wynn, who has achieved fame as the National Tele- vision Company ' s announcer. The discovery of John Havill by a G-M-G talent scout put all other so- called screen comedians out of business. John is currently appearing in his most popular film. Bob Sands and Dick Tomkinson are already great favorites on Broadway. We have been told that Bud Holder is making a million a year as the owner of a New York night club, but didn ' t make a go of it when he married one of his beauteous chorus girls. Taking all factors into consideration, ours has been a very outstanding class. All our members have prosper ed and arc happy, and we will forever cherish our years at Dickinson as one of the best periods in our lives. Twenty-nine EVENTS OF CLASS WILL WE. the undersigned, donors extraordinary, acting on behalf of and as agents for the Senior Class of 1939 and its members individually, do solemnly announce the following bequests, to our predecessors in the Senior Preparatory Department of Williamsport Dickinson Seminary and Jun- ior College. First: To our Class Adviser. Professor J. Milton Skeath. we give our most humble tanks for his help and cooperation. Second: To any future members of the Senior Class, — to be specific, of any ' ' ff ' ' class — . we gratefully and gladly hand over the student government with ■- all of its headaches and moans. Third: The legacies of individuals of the class are as follows: 1. Casanova Havill leaves that amazing attractiveness, so dear to all women, to Jack Mullen. Thirty THE YEAR 2. Joe Heeney bequeaths his ability as a good dresser , — and we mean it — . to Aaruba Rishel. 3. Jo Ellen MacKenzie has consented to give her ability for catching the big-uns . along with some small fry , to Betty Van Hisc. 4. Bill Stone leaves his intense bashfulness around the females to Red Mumper, — in order that Red may cut down on his expenditures on girls. Fourth: Having duly bequeathed everything that there is to bequeath, and in some cases a little more — , we hereby nominate and elect Fats Nixon and Shirley Smith as executors of this will.

Milton Skeath Editor-in-Chief Business Manager Associate Editor Advertising Manager Art Editor Faculty Adviser -2. A THE 1939 Dart Board is a historical organization — not only was their publication enthusiastically received by the students but the book bcirc the distinction of being placed in the cornerstone of the new chapel as well. Heading the staff was super-student William Brink, who was elected editor-in-chief by the graduating students. The other elective office, business manager, was filled by Harold Hazen. Among the numerous appointees were associate editor, Dan Collins: advertising manager. Verner Gooderham: sports editor, James Kerr: activities editor, Nancy Sinclair: art editor, Louis Malkin: and prep editors, George Long and Harold Grimes. Various assistants completed the staff and contributed much to the success of the Dart which, you will agree, is evident. Thirty-eight THE UNION STAFF MEMBERS Ray Flanders Verner Gooderham James Kerr Leon Martz Louise Marston Harriet Roth Edttor-in-Chief Business Manager Feature Editor Art Editor Literary Adviser Art Adviser r, .n WITH the publication of the cub issue, entirely under the supervision of next year ' s staff, the DICKINSON UNION has completed a successful journalistic season. The staff has endeavored to present campus news in a manner interesting to every type of student and for this reason all happenings have been portrayed in a colorful manner. The success enjoyed by the 1938-39 magazine is due in a large measure to the excellent directing ability of editor-in-chief Ray Flanders and the finesse with which business manager Ver- ner Gooderham handled the financial problems. Other members who gave freely of their time and talent to the UNION were Robert Owens. James Kerr. Henry McKinnon, Leon Martz and Dan Collins. A vote of thanks must be given also to faculty advisers, Mrs. Louise G. Marston and Miss Harriet Roth for their inspirational leadership. With an eye to the future, the UNION sent several promin- ing freshmen to the Columbia Press Conference in New York City where they were able to solve many problems connected with school publications. Bearing this in mind we all await next year ' s UNION, confident that it will carry on as in the past. .7 Thirty-nine y. M. C. A. ■V ' } ACCORDING to the usual custom, the Get-Acquainted Party was once again sponsored by the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A., the first week- end of school. Following this, both groups opened a drive for membership, the boys, reaching a total of about 3 5 members, the girls about 40. The two groups went together at Hallowe ' en to sponsor a party with quantities of refreshments. On Valentine ' s Day, the Y. W. C. A. had a little get-together for the boarding girls. In the spring, under the capable guidance of Mr. Jack Cattron, Wednesday evening discussion groups were started. The purpose of these meetings, origi- nated last year for the first time, is to talk over the question of Philosophies of ■ i ' ■ 1 ' ! ! Forty y. w. c. A. Life, Boy and Girl Relationships, College Life and other points following those lines. This year the Y. M. C. A. has contributed fifteen dollars to the Korean Fund and the Y. W. C. A. gave twenty dollars to Dickinson ' s Sister College, Goyama College. Representatives, who will be active in the organization next year, were sent to the conference at Bucknell University to glean many new and fresh ideas for carrying out the Christian activities. Throughout the year, the two groups controlled or managed Wednesday Evening Fellowship meetings. Next year the Y. W. C. A. and the Y. M. C. A. are hoping to join to- gether and continue as a single organization. Forty-one INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB OF special interest to students concerned with the problems and complexities of the world community of nations the International Relations Club assumed a position of lead- ership among the creative organizations of Dickinson Junior College during the past year. On the second Sunday of every month. IRC ' er regularly met to hear talks on pertinent international subjects by well- known local business and professional men, or discussions led by members of the club. Practically every phase of the contem- porary international struggle was treated in one way or another. At the helm of this year ' s club were Robert Owens, Presi- dent: James A. Kerr. Vice-President; Virginia Copsey. Secretary; and Dorothy Schulman, Treasurer. Dickinson ' s Prince of Pun- dels. Dr. Godshall, the Faculty Adviser of the club, was, as al- ways, of invaluable aid in successfully carrying through the year ' s program. Forty-two THE John Wesley Club afforded the opportunity to minis- terial students to gain practical experience through deputa- tion teams and to have close fellowship with each other. This year ' s group under the able leadership of its faculty ad- viser. Professor B. C. Harrington, and its President, Edwin Reter, Vice-President. Charles Greene, Secretary, Ruth Rein, and Treasurer, Grover Powell, maintained an active program. Throughout the year deputation teams were sent to churches in the city and the surrounding communities and to other religious organizations. During the month pi January members of the club took charge of the weekly services in the Williamsport Home. Once each month the club took charge of the Pine Street Epworth League meetings. This was the second year in which women were admitted to the club. Miss June Menzing is a prospective church secre- tary, and Misses Ruth Howells and Ruth Rein, who were mem- bers both years, are preparing for the ministry and the mission field, respectively. Various speakers, such as Dr. Long and Rev. Ridington. have given advice, inspiration, and Christian guidance to the members during the year. A picnic at Whirl ' s End Park ended the activities of a most successful year. Always to be remembered are the experiences of Christian service, fellowship, and brother- hood. JOHN WESLEY CLUB Forty-three ANGEL FACTORY m m UPON boarding the tanker S. S. Angel Factory, we arc greeted at the rail by the singing sailor Roberto Paliogacci Owens, who murdered the alba- tross with his midnight O Sole Mio , and brought stormy weather and protests from the Bridge (third floor). As we climb to deck 1 (second floor), we are greeted by the swishing and swoshing of mops manned by the sturdy arms of deck hands Kerr and Flaugh. Flaugh i s the quiet little swabber that says little but does much. Kerr is the author of the ship ' s Log (Union). Seaman Schalles keeps all of us sailors in the chips by bringing us mail and also beats a mean ivory on the ship ' s piano. Also living on the first deck arc those two sailing bishops, Brothers Reter and Lykens. They get off every week-end at port and go about their preaching. The last member of deck 1 is the sailor who holds the record for having the most time on his hands — he is the time-keep- ing seaman, John Ulmer. Now the next step is up to the bridge where we find Matie Die Tomkinson. He is running around and waiting on their highnesses, the three Musquetteers who man this side of the ship — Burger, Reynolds, and Martz — Co-Captains three — (I ' ll bet you don ' t know who wrote this). This does not, however, include the entire crew of the S. S. Angel Factory for the ship is divided into two sections — on the other side we find the ship ' s interpreter Professor Eagle and Mrs. Eagle and Coach McKay, his Mrs. and Betsey Lee — all on the second floor. Up a few more steps and you arc greeted by almost anything throwable, thrown by the ship ' s mascot, Jackie Cornwell, who stands grinning with the biggest smile I ever saw for such a little kid — up here is, of course, His Honor, the Dean ' s apartment, where the Dean, Mrs. Cornwell, Danny, and Jackie re- side. These make up the great crew of the S. S. Angel Factory. Forty-four GIRLS ' STUDENT COUNCIL CONSISTING of a President. Secretary and a representative from the Sopho- mores. Freshmen and Preparatory classes, the boarding girls ' Student Council has as its two main duties — to obtain cooperation among the dormitory girls and to maintain peace and order through the operation of the organization. The girls are subject to the rule of their contemporaries rather than under the supervision of the faculty members. The members of the Boarding Council are: Lois Davidson . . . . . President Editha WhiTESELL - . . - Secretary Nancy Sinclair - - Sophomore Representative Lois Ludlow - - - Freshman Representative Suzanne Boselv . - . . Preparatory The day student girls have a group similar to this. It is their purpose to obtain real cooperation among their particular group and to create friendship between the day and boarding group. Members of this Council are: Shirley Slater . - . . President Charlotte Adelman - . . - Secretary Forty-five DOUBLE MALE QUARTET • 4. IT would be not only an error but an impossibility to say that the Double Male Quartet of 1938-39 is bigger than the ones of previous years but one can safely say that the organization is better than ever. Three of the boys were members of the 1937-38 group and these formed a firm foundation on which Mrs. Myrra Bates, director, and Miss Mary Landon, pianist, were able to build the lively and original group which has been so active during the year. Their various appearances are too numerous to mention here so let it suffice to say that they have become the best known Seminary organiza- tion in and around Williamsporf. Among the most popular numbers featured by the Double Male Quartet have been Tramp. Tramp, Tramp from Naughty Marietta , the Soldier ' s Chorus from Faust , and the perennial favorite, Peggy O ' Ncil . The latter part of the season was somewhat disrupted by the withdrawal of Charles Rank who joined the ranks of the employed but Don Kingsley ably filled his place. Appendicitis next kept tenor Bert McCracken out of action for a time, but in spite of these difficulties the season closed successfully for the double male. bh. ■iK ' Forly-six THE ENSEMBLE THIS organization is made up of young men and women who are interested in vocal and choral music. This vehicle of entertainment has been success- fully driven by Mrs. Myrra Bates over an extensive and varied course. From the first practice session through the winter with its trips to Flemington, Mont- gomery, Montoursville and Milton and the many concerts in Williamsport and South Williamsport and on through the Spring Concert season the organization has received the plaudits of its listeners. However, not all the activities have been work. The highlight of the year for the Ensemble was the week-end trip to New York City for the opera II Trovatorc which was a thrilling experience for most of the members. Then too, the group enjoyed a picnic at Hazen ' s cabin on Loyalsock Creek. There have been few musical seasons which have held more enjoyment for the members of this group and its fine work may be most highly commended. The members are: Jean Antes, Alice Ashman, Helen McCloskey, Jean Ford. Letty McComb, Charlotte Adelman, Ellen Rcnner, Virginia Slate, Vita DeCanio, Betty Sassaman, Mary Jane Gleckner, Jean Stewart, Beulah Bunce, Paul Free, Ray Flanders, Henry McKinnon. Bertram McCracken, Harold Hazen, Leon Maneval, Maxwell Hoadlcy, Don Kingsley. Charles Young, Charles Rank, and Robert Owens. Forty-seven DRAMATIC CLUB T HE Dickinson Players, the largest organization in the school, has enjoyed an active season during the spring months although the club was inactive during a small part of the winter. fl ' l : The most bitter disappointment which befell the players was the with- drawal of the adviser, Miss Katherine Shank, from school at a time when plans for a major production were under way. The day was saved when the senior class threw open the annual class play to members of the dramatic club. The play, Noel Coward ' s I ' ll Leave It To You, was well received. The club conducted the routine meetings throughout the year and much interesting dra- matic material was presented at them. A feature attraction was the performance of Mrs. Mantinband, who m terpreted many of her favorite poems. Officers of the club were: President. Vcrner Goodcrham; Vice-President. Frank Schneider; Secretary. Dorothy Schulman: Treasurer, Bob Owens. %r ' ' Forty-etght .■r|  B Chapel Choir French Club 1 t- Forty-nine .•r ' tj 4 ■ Prom Committee Greater Dickinson Banquet Committee Vxhi, Theta Pi Pi Beta Eta Pi Fifly-one Junior Prep Class ALTHOUGH small in number the Junior Prep Class this year has not let itself be outshincd by their illustrious upperclassmcn.

Nor has this group failed to do its share in the new construction program. To them next year will come the honor of breaking in the new school facilities. With these students as a nucleus next year ' s senior preps should do great things and set even higher standards in school activities. 7 Fifty-two FOOTBALL ,. f Dickinson Dickinson Dickinson Dickinson Dickinson Dickinson Dickinson Seminary Seminary Seminary Seminary Seminary Seminary Seminary Mansfield Teachers 7 56 Bioomsburg Teachers J.

The McKay-tutored squad hung up a record of four won. two lost, and one draw — against sterling oppo- sition. In doing so they scored 126 points to their opponents 53. held Wyom- ing to a tie on their own muddy field, and triumphed over one of the best Dick- inson Frosh teams in recent years. With Jack Freeman at quarterback; Bob Miller at fullback: Bob Krannish and Kenny Stofer at the halfbacks: George Jarmoska at center: Dan Douglas, and either John Havill or Phil Metling at ends; Al Barnes and Bill Beckley at the tackles; and William Smith and Howard Allison at the guards; as a first string eleven, and with such able reserves as Leon Martz. Bill Taylor. Dean Fawcett. James Glaus. Dean Reese. Stan Finkleman. Harry Reynolds. John Burger. Harry Nixon. Paul Weidler. Jay Sinclair. Gordon Ritter. Robert Lein- bach. Kline Buffington. John Shirey. Arnold Bricker. William Spencer. Jordan Ryan, and James Shannon. Mr. McKay started training a week before school, and showed an already well-conditioned group of husky athletes to any and all of the curious students. Fifty-five -i-c. - J MANSFIELD TEACHERS 7: DICKINSON The home season opened on October 1 . when the future State Teachers Champion. Mansfield, came to the High School Stadium with a big. rough, tough, good team. An exchange of blows enlivened the battle of two great lines, which kept the scoreboard unmarked for three periods. Then, in the waning minutes, the 1.000 spectators saw Feldman cross the goal line on the receiving end of a nifty forward-lateral, for 25 yards and the only score of the day. The Mansfield 7. Dickinson score does not show that the Sem boys had the better of the struggle statistically, but succumbed from lack of support by Lady Luck. DICKINSON 56: BLOOMSBURG J. V. With two weeks ' rest for the battered boys of Dickinson. Bloomsburg Teachers J. V. ' s came meekly to the slaughter, and we turned in a 56-0 rout. Coach McKay was able to give every man on the bench a few minutes of service m the fray. A week later, on October 22. Bill Venner played the role of the ungrateful host, and led the Colgate Freshmen to a thumping 39-12 victory over the D.Son squad. Venner. the 193 7 fullback of Seminary, turned in the longest run of the day, a thrilling 70 yard return of a Dickinson kickofl , and figured promi- nently in almost every Colgate offensive charge. On the other hand, the Gold outfit had only two scoring chances and availed itself of both. Freeman taking a pass from Stofer early in the initial quarter, and Stofer climaxing a sustained 62 yard march in the final stanza to give us our 1 2 point total. DICKINSON 3 1 : GEORGE WASHINGTON FROSH Dickinson Seminary went on a rampage with an aerial razzle-dazzle that completely bewildered the Colonial Cubs. Jack Freeman and Ken Stofer both 0 ' threw and caught passes good for touchdowns. And then, adding insult to in- ; ' V. , . , jury, the Gold Bugs caught no less than seven passes intended for G. W. arms tf ] fti to clinch the victory. All 22 of the players who made the trek southward saw service. That was about the whole tale of the game, and we added a well-de- ,. , served victory to our records, starting the vindication of Hirsh. 2 ' ' ' ' l Fifty-six DICKINSON 0; WYOMING On November 5, on the second successive muddy Saturday, the Macmen journeyed to Kingston to play the Seminary ' s perennial rivals, Wyoming. It was a tough game, and the 0-0 score was no disgrace. As it was, we broke a jinx of long standing for that was the best showing D-Son ever made at Wyom- ing in all the long series. And on top of that, we made the only touchdown of the game when Kenny Stofer crossed the final stripe, only to have it called back by the referee. Although outplayed, Wyoming hung on valiantly, and pulled out a tie game. DICKINSON SEMINARY 14: DICKINSON FROSH 7 Homecoming Day, November 12, was the climax of the season. Twice in the first quarter the boys carried the ball deep into the foe ' s territory, only to have Lady Luck step into the battle with miscues that temporarily halted D- Son ' s progress. That, on top of a quick first score, slightly dampened the ardor of all, grads and undergrads alike. But the Big Red could not stop the inspired Sem. team forever. And finally in the fourth quarter the line and backfield started to function brilliantly, and with Jack Freeman and Kenny Stofer pass- ing, and with Big Bob Miller plunging, the Hilltoppers pushed the ball across the goal line twice, and sent the Red Devils home wagging their tails to the tune of a 14-7 defeat. DICKINSON 1 3 ; WESTERN MARYLAND FROSH The anti-climax, the same for two successive years, was a 13-0 victory on a muddy field at Westminster, Md., over the Western Maryland Frosh. A con- verted hockey field, ankle deep in mud, does not constitute ideal playing condi- tions, but in the last period the boys got going again and scored two touch- downs, to wind up the season victoriously. There it is, a disastrous beginning, a brilliant ending, and a highly success- ful season for a powerful, skillful, colorful D-Son football team. Fifty-seven ■ ' ; BASKETBALL ?;ifii.

It was only toward the end of the season that they received anywhere near the popular support that they deserved, despite an only average season in so far as the won and lost percentages go. In the only game prior to the Christmas vacation, the Mansfield Teachers won a close opener by a 28-25 score, with the well-balanced Seminary team showing great prospects. After vacation, the season began in earnest. The boys made the annual trek to Ithaca to meet Cornell ' s Junior Varsity on Saturday, January 7. Again we met with defeat, but the team played great ball. The score was 35-39, in their favor. The home debut was spoiled by an inconsiderate Bucknell Junior College team to the tune of 40-36. Bob Miller pulled out 16 points, but it wasn ' t enough. On January 20, the squad moved in on the Bucknell College Freshmen, and showed a great flash of power to win 40-38 in the last two minutes in a thrilling rally. The following night tlie Varsity ran into trouble again when they lost to Penn State ' s best Freshman squad in years, the scoreboard reading 37-16 at the final whistle. On .January 31, the boys lost what was to prove the last loss for some time. On George Washington ' s home floor the Freshmen proved very inhospitable. The McKay squad put up a whale of a fight before succumbing to the smooth yearlings, 32-22. Then came the turning point. On Friday, February 3, the boys handed a speedy Stroudsburg Frosh squad their second defeat in two years by a 44-34 score, and on the following night the Susquehanna Junior Varsity quintet under- went the humiliation of a defeat on their home floor by the fast-improving Dickinson team, the final score being 34-31. On February 10, the McKaymen continued their winning streak with an overwhelming 46-26 score, only to have it snapped the next night by Bucknell Junior College, the only team to register two victories over the McKay boys in a single season. The score was 45-39. But then came the climax of the home season. On February 11, with Kenny Stofer setting the pace, the boys rose to great heights to lead the team to a rousing 41-21 triumph over the Teachers. The team really hit the peak of the season in that game, every man playing well-nigh brilliant ball. Following close on the heels of that tussle was a well-earned 5 3-41 win over our deadly rival, Wyoming Seminary, perennial big game attraction on the home floor. Wyoming brought with them height and speed, but good sound basketball triumphed in the end, and that victory made the season a sure success. In the return game. Wyoming achieved a narrow 44-43 decision, but the barn door had already been opened and the cart gone, so this was only an anti- climax. Stroudsburg Teachers Frosh also gained a measure of revenge on March 1 1 by a 53-42 score. The season officially closed on the following Tuesday with a win over Juniata Freshmen at Juniata — 37-26. This is the good record hung up by Jack Freeman, Kenny Stofer, Bob Miller. Joe Heeney, and George Jarmoska. varsity; and James Glaus. John , ' i ' {(■■ Havill, Kline Buffington.

Finally Brandon Park diamond was secured by the administration, and the team dug in to get in shape for its abbreviated season. As usual the highlight of the season was the Wyoming Seminary game, held the last Friday of classes. Our team liked them so much they scheduled a return game at Wyoming ' s home grounds, played on May 31. Everybody knows that next year with the new field Dickinson will go in for baseball in a big way. so great things are expected of future Dickinson sluggers. The players reading from left to right are: first row. Coach McKay, Faw- cett, Weidler, Captain Reynolds, Kranich, Miller. Martz. Stofer: second row, Adams, Furst, Glaus, Venner, Heeney, Freeman, Taylor, and Trainer Smith; third row. Bricker. Leinbach, Davis, Beckley, Havill, Powell, Metling, Holder, and Flock. Sixty GIRLS ' ATHLETICS THIS year the girls on the Dickinson Seminary Campus actively participated in a variety of sports by selecting what they wished to pursue twice a week. Bowling, swimming, calisthenics, hiking, volleyball, basketball, base- ball, and handball proved to be the favorites among the girls. Although no varsity team was chosen to represent the school, the girls organized among themselves and had many interesting games during the gym- nasium period. The second semester added interest by the learning of golf and tennis, which were taught by champions in each field. The women were required to write several short themes based on posters pertaining to the cure and prevention of diseases. Able director of the women ' s physical education classes was Professor Bab- cock who planned the particular line of activities. This year ' s group of young women proved to be adept in all the required sports, many of them successful in all the gymnastics. Sixty -one MAY DAY S(.vfiv-fu.

The story told by the copy and engravings is worthless unless the printed pages provide eloquent 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 execution has been a primary reason for the selection of our organization as the printers of The DART of Dickinson Junior College for many years. And in addition each Staff has had an intelligent advisory service — thoroughly understanding their requirements and representing an organization capable of meeting them.
