DEDI HARRAY A. BENFER Upon meeting an alumnus of Muhlenberg, one usually finds his first nostalgic query sounding something like this - ls flaps Benfer still there? For many reasons, which we as seniors probably now know, Haps has become as much a part of the life blood and legend of 'Berg as has General Pete. What is the background of this legend who greets students wherever he sees them with a deep, strong Hi Boys. ? Haps was born before the turn of the century on Octo- ber 24, 1892, in Lockhaven, Pennsylvania. l-le graduated from York High School in 1911 and then went on to Albright College, where he was to make himself fam- ous as Albright's Athlete of the Century, an honor awarded to him in October, 1956. A Bachelor of Arts degree and a Master of Arts degree were bestowed upon him in 1915 and 1916, respectively. While at Albright, he was initiated into ODK, Pi Delta Epsilon, and the Masonic organization. Haps became a member of the Muhlenberg Faculty in 1925 as coach of Athletics, continuing in this position until 1929. At this time he advanced to Registrar and Dean of Freshmen, for which he is most fondly remembered. Then, in 1935, he stepped into the difficult job of Director of Admissions. Besides his regular position, Haps has also served as Faculty Advisor to the Ciarla, Chairman of the Schedule Committee, Pulbications Committee, Scholarship and Student Aid Committee, and the Athletic Committee. Recently he has become the Faculty Advisor to the Cardinal Key Society. l-le has now served the college for 36 years and was the first non-Muhlenberg Graduate ever to receive the Alumni Achievement Award. ln our brief sojourn at 'Berg, Flaps has been many things to us. A11 of us remember the speech given to us in our Freshman year by flaps, the encouragement to go out there and beat those upper classmen in the Soph-Frosh events by clean, hard play. He ex- horted us to hit the books so that there would be no regret after finals. ln times of trou- ble, both academic and social, Haps always had an eager ear for our troubles, giving us words of advice and outright aid. Although he has occasionally had to apply disciplinary measures in order that the Freshmen succeed at the arduous task before them, none of them has ever seriously minded, since they know that whatever Haps did was for their own welfare and that the students always come first with him. Indeed, llaps has been a coach: he has coached us on how to play the game of life cleanly and ethically. Perhaps we can give him the greatest tribute - that he and Mrs. Benfer have been like parents to us in our journey to the future and that we will never forget Haps and Muhlenberg for all the wonderful moments and beautiful memories they have given to us. Therefore, it is with a great deal of gratitude and pleasure that we, the Class of 1961, dedicate this volume to you, Haps.
