The 1941 Olifntpia TWENTY-TWO CLASS HISTORY Highlight of 1941, our graduation year, will most certainly be Commence- ment Day, June third. But before we think of commencement we must first think of reviewing the highlights of the past four years that we have spent to- gether. Our trials and tribulations had their beginning in the fall of ig 7, when as green and submissive (at times) fresh- men we endured the rigors of initiation. Formal initiation came to a close on Court Night when we revolted and gave our sophomore brethren an interesting time. The next step in our journey toward a higher degree was the election of class officers and the following were selected: Joseph Brownlee, president; Beanis Es- posito, vice-president; Jeanette Segall, secretary; Matthew Feldman, treasurer. Our first social affair was a distinct suc- cess, it being our Hallowe ' en Dance given for our sophomore friends. The annual class picnic was well planned for, but rain dampened our spirits and the hope of a pleasant time. We returned for our sophomore vear with a feeling of exultation because we knew that we would not be the under- dog and we could satiate our desire to dish it out. The following class officers were elected: Thomas Shirlev, president; Jean Thomasin, vice-president; Jeanette Segall, secretary; Rocco Riccardi, treas- urer. We started a line of social events by giving the annual dance for the freshmen. Then followed our unforgettable trip to the Old Cider A ' lill in Union where the class held an enjovable get together. No one can forget the fine time we gave the freshmen on St. Patrick ' s Day, after which we journeyed to a Newark theatre to hear Jimmv Dorsey and his orchestra. We brought the year to a close with the pageant. Athletic Association Banquet, and Commencement. We started our junior year with the group diminished in number but increased in quality. The girls found themselves on the Big Sister Committee and they strove to make a pleasant and enjoyable college entrance for the incoming freshmen. We all had a feeling of being more mature in our thoughts and actions. Thomas Shirley was again elected president of the class, with Constance Neumann as vice-president, Doris Ebner as secretary, and Walter Coralewicz as treasurer. Two memorable social occasions were held by our class. The first was our an- nual Junior Prom which was held in the Starlight Terrace of the Essex House in Newark. The food was fine, the girls ex- otic, and the music enchanting; need we say more? We also attended the Ameri- can Country Dance Society Festival in New York where we participated in many English and American folk dances. The last leg of our journey was started and of cours e a most outstanding feature was our student teaching experience. We also traveled to Cook ' s Pond in Denville for our final class picnic and we shall never forget this memorable occasion. We have reached the end of our trials and tribula- tions and we have had a fine time at our last Athletic Association Banquet and our first Senior Class Night and Commence- ment. As we walk down through the Memorial Gate Posts for the last time as undergraduate students we ' ill start a new adventure but, As we tra ' el o ' er life ' s pathway, Meni ' ry turns again For our faith in Panzer College Ever will remain. Betty Donnelly Class Historian. TWENTY-THREE CLASS Will We, the Class of 1941, being of sound mind and body (although the former is much doubted) do hereby publish and declare this, our last will and testament. First: To the faculty, we bequeath our sincere gratitude for their efforts in our behalf. Second: To the Class of 1942, we be- queath our fine accumulation of knowledge and our excellent (some- what doubted) grades in student teaching. Third: To the student body, we bequeath a bequeath. In addition we make the following in- dividual bequeaths and we hope that they will be used to good advantage: 1. To Reno Ringi we bequeath Tom Shide ' s headache; the parking lot. 2. To Jay Dakelman, I cede my good center position; Maurice Julian. 1,. To Prof Corton, we extend our hopes for a new set of Iron Men. 4. To the sophisticated sophomores, we leave a batch of new cats and the odors emanating from the lab. 15. To Mr. and Mrs. Armstrong, we leave a bigger and better lunch room. 6. To Al Davis, we leave Thomas Thomas ' gymnastic ability. 7. To Harriet Kane, we bestow Shir- ley Teitelbaum ' s height. 8. To Art Kroneke, we leave Morris Berger ' s salesmanship ability. g. To Mr. Johnson, we bestow a big- ger and better group of speakers. 10. To the senior class; Sorry, we grad- uate and we just leave. The foregoing is the legal will and testament ol the Class of 1941. In witness whereof, we heiehv subscribe out name and seal, to out last will and testament on this third of June, in the year of our Lord, one thousand nine hundred and forty-one. Catherine De Stefanis, Executor of the Will. TWENTY-FOUR C A N D I D S TWENTY-FIVE - 4 W - -i TWENTY-SIX The CLASSES TNS ENTY-SEVEN Then plow was a huge success. JUNIORS The class of 1942 entered Panzer Col- lege with high hopes for the fulfillment of their ambitions, during the four year stay here and for their future work. George Aumack was elected president of the class and has retained this office for three years. The social highlight of our first year ' s activities was our nautical dance, which was very successful. With the start of our sophomore year, the class was again prepared for the ac- tivities at school and fond memories of summer vacation were relegated to the background. The traditional Hallowe ' en Barn Dance was given by our class and all who attended will fondly remember the fun we had. The outstanding characteristic of the junior year was the annual junior prom. The Condor, in Livingston, was the site at which the prom was held. The turnout for this elaborate affair was larger than for any previous prom. The delicious mid- night dinner, the enchanting music, and beautiful atmosphere of the Condor all served to make this affair one which will be long remembered. As we look forward to next year, it is our desire to maintain the high standards and ideals established bv the preceding classes. We extend our heartiest con- gratulations to the senior class and wish them well in all they do. Frances Trebour. TWENTY-EIGHT It was in the beginning of September, 1940, that a group of timid and confused freshmen entered Panzer College. After a period of orientation, the next memora- ble date was the Initiation Court night, which will long be remembered. Another milestone in our journey to- ward the completion of our ambitions was the election of class officers and these in- cluded Jack Underwood, president; Fran- ces Bull, vice-president; Rita Orlando, secretary, and Jerry Elfenbein, treasurer. The social events of the year were cen- tered around our dance for the sopho- mores and our class picnic to Cook ' s Pond, which brought our first year to an enjoyable close. At the start of our sophomore year we elected the following officers; Joseph Hef- fernan, president; Sophie Yaremus, vice- president; Dorothy Klockncr, secretary; and Vincent Cantelmo, treasurer. After Initiation Court night was over, we gave an informal barn dance for the freshmen and a grand time was had by all. To bring our second year to a close, we hope to have another successful class picnic. Dorothy Samerotte. SOPHOMORES The cuf jHsitisfic sophomores are an important part of the college. TWENTY-NINB they last through the next three years they will be graduates too. FRESHMEN On September 1 8, Panzer College took into its midst a naturally green class of freshmen, ho intend to do big things ithin the next four vears. At our first class meeting, which was opened bv our very able ad iser Mr. Wil- liam Johnson, we elected: President, George Falcone; Vice-President, Shirley Hoyt; Treasurer, James Ilerdic; Secretary, Florence Rothman. Fred Bedlc and Mar- garet Kerrigan were elected to the Stu- dent Council as representatives-at-large and Grace Wake and Paul Piefke were elected to the Athletic Association Coun- cil as class representatives. Initiation proved a very thrilling event for everyone, and I hope we have finally gained favor with our sophomore friends. Initiation did not seem so bad when we realized that next year we would be sophs and would be on the other side of the fence.- The freshman girls were gi ' en a soda treat after initiation by the sophomore girls and we reciprocated with a party at our vice-president ' s home. We also gave a Big Sister Party and load of fun was had by all who attended. Our last and most important affair was held on March 2g, when we gave our annual dance in honor of the sophomores. Live and Love seniors your college days are your best, and it is with the most sincere regrets that you leave them. Peggy Kerrigan. 7he ACTIVITIES THIRTY-ONE STUDENT COUNCIL Philip Peters, President; Natalie Kuster, Vice-President ; Thomas Shirley, Treasurer; Miss Broivn, Facidty Adiiser. The Student Council is a representa- tive body composed of four students from each class; the president, vice-president, and two members at large. The policy of the Student Council has been to consider student administration and to undertake a project which will directly benefit the college. This year has seen the impro ' ement of the grounds and building facilities, proper supervision of the parking lot, completion of many social affairs and functions, bet- ter and more significant chapel programs, a neater and more orderly bulletin board, and publicity that is needed to make the school known in the community. Al- though the Student Council is not wholly responsible for all of these improvements, they are partialh responsible for them and thev deser e much credit for their effi- cient work. One of the most important functions of this body is to send representatives, dele- gates, and student speakers to the various professional conventions. This year, rep- resentatives were sent to the Eastern Dis- trict Physical Education Association in Atlantic City, and to the Convention of Eastern States Association of Professional Schools for Teachers in New York City. The Student Council wishes to express its gratitude to the facultv and the stu- dents for their fine cooperation in making the 1940-41 school year a most successful one. THIRTY-TWO ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION Edward Smith President Constance Neumann . . . Vice-President Catherine Cairns Secretary Albert J. Gorton .... Faculty Adviser The Athletic Association and Council of Panzer College was organized in 19215. Mr. Albert J. Gorton, who is a charter member holds the positions of faculty ad- viser and treasurer. The goal of the organization has been to raise athletics to a higher standard. Since 19215 they have increased the roster of clubs and varsity sports to include football, baseball, basketball, soccer, gym- nastics, fencing, track, badminton, arch- ery, and volleyball. In 1936 a division for Women ' s Ath- letics was introduced under the guidance and leadership of Miss Nellie May White- hurst. In June of each year the Athletic Coun- cil holds its annual banquet for the mem- bers of the Athletic Association. At this time the athletes of Panzer College are awarded letters and medals for their in- dividual participation in the sports pro- gram. We, the members of the Athletic Council wish to extend to all seniors, our best good wishes and good luck for the future. THIRTY-THREE The folk dance group has grown tre- mendously in the last few years and nov ' holds a place of im]5ortance in the extra- curricular program of the college. Re- hearsals for this group are held on Wednesdays during the extra-curricular hour and at this time they practise the dances of America, Finland, Scotland, Ireland, Czechoslovakia, France, and Italy. During the course of the year the group is called upon to participate in exhibitions throughout northern New Jersey. Dur- ing the past year they have danced for the East Orange Women ' s Club, East Ruth- erford High School, South Mountain School in Millburn, North Plainfield High School, West Orange Community House, and at many other clubs and meetings in this vicinity. Many of these exhibitions are held in conjunction with the glee club and this combination has proved to add much to the color and the effect of the dancing. The group participates extensively in the Panzer Pageant and are always well re- ceived by the audience. Victor Palven, a former captain of this group, will be graduated and it will be hard to find someone to fill his place when school opens in September. FOLK DANCING Their repnfafion is known throughout northern Neiv Jersey. THIRTY-FOUR They present many outstanding dances for college functions. MODERN DANCING The Modern Dance Group had its be- ginning in nineteen hundred and thirt - six under the ' er ' able guidance of Mrs. ilson. From that date on, until nine- teen hundred and thirtv-nine, the girls ' orked hard merely for the enjo ment thev recei -ed from this acti ' ity. The lat- ter vear was the first year extra-curricular credit was given to the modern dance group for participation. The primary purpose of its formation was for a demonstration dance group and the girls have fulfilled this mission during the years of the group ' s existence b - ac- compan ' ing the folk dance group on its demonstrations. The group has grown so that it now participates in the Christmas program, the pageant, and on Senior Class Night. The girls also attend the Han a Holm Dance Recital annualh ' to witness a demonstration of the highest type of art in dancing. Any Monda - and Friday, during the extra-curricular period, you can see the girls busih ' engaged in practice. In the near future the members of the group hope to be pioneers in the field of modern dancing and take charge of spon- soring a dance s mposium. The purpose for holding this symposium is to aid in creating interest in modern dancing among high school students. THIRTY-FIVE The Springboard is the official pubhca- tion of the Student Council and in con- junction with the annual, constitutes the literary life of the college. The Springboard is a four page paper and is published eight times a year and contains a kaleidoscopic view of school life in all its phases— news, athletics, so- cial, and literary. It is entirely an organ of expression for the student body and it is an honor ranking member of the Asso- ciated Collegiate Press.

' ■♦x Their improved singing and growth in size has caused thcvi to become a group that is in much demand on programs. The glee club is under the able direc- tion of Miss Frances Hanley, a graduate of the Juilliard School of Music and an active teacher of music in the schools of New York Citv. It is one of the most active groups in the school and con- tributes its talents to the many celebra- tions, socials, chapel programs, and dem- onstrations. One of the unique features of the club is the girls ' octette, a selected group of girls that accompanies the folk dance group on their demonstrations. They help to pro ide a pleasant and appropriate atmosphere for the dancers and they sing the folk songs of Scotland, Finland, Eng- land and America. Students elect the glee club as an activ- ity because of their interest in part singing and for their improvement in group and indi ' idual harmony. It also affords an opportunity for the members to impro ' e their knowledge of ' oice control, sight reading, and part unison. The group is limited to thirty-two students that are selected on the basis of their ability, at- tendance and cooperation. Although the members of this club ha ' e to work ery hard the enjoyment that is derived is satisfying and worthwhile. THIRTY-EIGHT BADMINTON CLUB Look out for the birdie when this group goes into action. Badminton, this year, proved to be one of the more popular extra-curricular activ- ities that was sponsored by the college. Miss Nellie May Whitehurst was the fac- ulty adviser of this club and under her capable guidance the club enjoyed one of the best seasons they have ever had. Included among the manv activities of the club was an elimination tournament that was held bv the members. Mr. George Miele of Seton Hall College and a Panzer graduate, brought a group of players from the afore-mentioned college and an interesting and enjoyable evening was the result. The results of the tourna- ment cannot be published because at this writing the tournev is unfinished and no winner has been determined. The members of this club are the fol- lowing: Bert Mellen, Charlotte Eilemann, Florence Rothman, Grace Wake, Vivian Scher, Connie Neumann, Kay De Ste- fanis, Bett Donnelly, Jam Segall, Edith Wagner, Doris Ebner, Francis Bull, Fred Beaman, Joe Boll, Violet Levy, George Aumack, and Mary Whitford. THIRTY-NINE DRAMATIC CLUB One of the fast rising activities on the extracurricular program is the dramatic group above. During the past few seasons the Dra- matic Club has introduced a plan which has shown surprisingh ' good results. The performances of this spring will be the final tests as to its working ability. Under the able supervision of Mr. Johnson, the club has developed a democratic plan of production. The members select, pro- duce, and direct all of the plays, and they stri ' e to give the audience the type of play that they will most enjoy. We have always tried to get entering students to join the club and if he or she does so, they will have had a chance to portrav manv roles before their gradua- tion. In this manner a standard cast is made up of new embryonic actors and actresses appearing each year. At the pres- ent time there are members represented from all of the four classes at school. The only play that has been presented thus far during this year is The Harper School Mysterv which was presented in conjunction with the Christmas Festival. We hope that the dramatic art will maintain a place in the extra-curricular program for many years to come. WHO ' S WHO who ' s Who hoiiovary group whose biographies are appearing in the 1940-1941 edition. Who ' s Who Among Students in American Universities and Colleges is a book that is published each vear at the University of Alabama and it contains the biographies of the outstanding college students in o ' er fi e hundred American colleges and universities. It is the only means of national recognition that is de- ' oid of politics, fees, and dues. Several students are selected each year from accredited colleges and those students are selected because of their scholastic ability, character, outstanding participation in athletics and extra-curricular activities, potentialities of future usefulness, and their leadership. The purpose of ho ' s Wno is to ser e as an incenti e for students to get the most out of their college careers; as a means of compensation for what they have already done; as a recommendation to the business and professional world; and as a standard of measurement for students comparable to such agencies as Phi Beta Kappa and the Rhodes Scholarship A -ard. Panzer students were first included in this book in the year of 19:58, and they have been included every year thereafter. Joseph Brownlee is the only Panze r stu- dent to ha ' e his biography appear in this publication for two years, 19:59-40 and 1940-41 editions. He is one of fifty-four students from all over the country to have his biograph ' appear for two years in the current edition which lists approximately five thousand students. FORTY-ONE Remember the cheers they ' ve led for you? CHEERLEADERS When you go to a basketball, baseball, or football game, you will see the cheer leaders giving their Rah— Rah— Rah ' s and adding much to the spirit and good sportsmanship of the game. They sure make a grand appearance in their natty uniforms of maroon and white while lead- ing the yells for the boys and the teams. Cheer leading at Panzer was started by one of our well-known graduates— Frank Wells. Whenever he felt that a cheer was necessary, he simply went out onto the field and conducted one in a very capable fashion. From this single member the squad began to grow and Florence O ' Mara and Jerry Crampton joined Frank in his efforts. Today the squad consists of four girls and two men, who will be seen at all of the athletic contests. This is one of the most well worthwhile activities that is sponsored by the Ath- letic Association and it is coached by Al- vin Davis. During the course of the year the mem- bers of this squad give diligently of their time and efforts and wholeheartedly help to enrich the life of the college. So let ' s reverse the tables and give a well-deserved cheer for the cheerleaders. FORTY-TWO Phi Epsilon Kappa is a professional and an honorar ' fraternity for teachers of ph sical education and for undergraduate students who are majoring in physical education. The fraternity was founded at the Normal College of the American Gymnastic Union in Indianapolis, Indi- ana, on April 12, igi . With the instal- lation of the Beta Chapter at the Amer- ican College of Physical Education in Chicago, Illinois, on May 7, ig20. Phi Epsilon Kappa took the first step toward nationalization as a Greek Letter college. This fraternity was installed at Panzer College on May 10, 192:5, when the Delta Chapter was formed. This became the fourth chapter to be formed in the history of the fraternity. The acti ities of the fraternity are cen- tered around man - things and these in- clude: pledge parties, shore parties, sup- per dates, bowling parties, and business and professional meetings. The outstand- ing social function of the fraternity is their annual barn dance. PHI EPSILON KAPPA Edward Smith President Maurice Julian Vice-President Walter Goraiewicz Secretary Philip Peters Treasurer FORTY- THREE In igi6 at the Normal College of the American Gymnastic Union was founded the Phi Delta Pi Sorority, a National Fra- ternity for Women in the profession of Physical Education. The Kappa Chapter was installed at the Newark Normal School (later Panzer College) on Janu- ary 22, 1927. Its aims are to bring about a lasting friendship among the members and is an incentive to the women of the schools to promote the standards of schol- arship in their chosen profession. We, who are leaving, have many fond memories to look back upon. There have been rush parties, pledge parties, skating parties, and parties of all sorts. A great deal of cnjo ment was had at all of them, especially the shipwreck party. Then there was that ' isit ■ (a very short one) at Oxerbrook. Now, to turn to the more serious func- tions of the sororit ' — the professional meetings. Miss Brown entertained us with pictures of the Olympics; Mr. Gorton fol- lowed with camp pictures; Mr. Davis, pic- tures of German Gymnastics; and Mr. Saltzman, the pictures of the School of Gymnastics in Denmark. Also, very en- lightening was the visit of Mrs. Van Der- werken, who was appointed to inspect the various chapters. Last of all was our trip to Temple University where we had a get- together with the Beta Chapter. We ha e had grand times and look for- ward to more as we go on into the alum- nae chapter. PHI DELTA PI FORTY-FOUR PI ETA SIGMA Pi Eta Sigma Fraternity was organized as a social service gronp during the first World War. It remained as such for a number of years, until in 1923, when the organization became a national sororit ' . A few years later Panzer College officially recognized the Pi Eta Sigma Sorority. The main purpose of the sorority is to develop among its members a spirit of cooperation and to assist them in their social and cultural dcx ' clopmcnt. We ha e fulfilled this ]3urpose under the ' erv able leadership of our facultv adviser, Mrs. Sylvia Brainen. Pi Eta Sigma is kept bus ' throughout the year with its charitable, social, and educational interests. We have in pre- vious years, undertaken to aid the Amer- ican Red Cross in several of their projects. This year we have industriouslv taken to knitting and sewing for the aid of British War Relief. On the social side of the calendar we find that we have the winter and spring formals, theater parties, teas, lectures by professional persons, and our annual party for the graduates. All this is con- clusive evidence that our sorority makes a definite contribution to our lives and to the life of our collcpe. FORTY-FIVE DELTA PSI KAPPA Delta Psi Kappa, a national profes- sional fraternity for women, was founded at the Normal College of the American Gymnastic Union, Indianapolis, Indiana, in the fall of the year igi6. The thirteen charter members, to whom we owe the existence of the fraternity, began to func- tion under the name of Delta Psi Kappa on October 2 of that year, and from that date on Psi Kaps throughout the years have diligently worked for the progression of physical education as a professional field for women. On November 2:5, igig, Theta Chapter was installed at the New- ark Normal School of Physical Education. This same chapter is still located at Pan- zer College. Professionally, Delta Psi Kappa took a big step forward in ig2g when they were admitted as a member of the Women ' s Professional Panhellenic Association. Ten years later, in ig g, Delta Psi Kappa be- came affiliated with the American Asso- ciation for Health, Physical Education and Recreation and in the same year, the first lap of the National Project, equip- ment for the Nashville, Tennessee, Home for Crippled Children was completed. Also in the year ig g, Delta Psi Kappa retained a position on the Executive Com- mittee at the Women ' s Professional Panhellenic Association Convention. Through this membership and position Delta Psi Kappa was listed in American Women, a Who ' s Who. Theta Chapter holds regular meetings once every two weeks. The local project of the fraternity is a yearly contribution to the Panzer College library for books on music and the dance. Theta holds two open professional meetings a year and an annual dinner dance during the holiday 7he SPORTS FORTY-SEVEN Panzer ' s vastly imlnoicd football team. November 2} , 1940 F T B A I I The past four gridiron seasons have seen the Panthers victorious in ten and defeated in twenty contests. The record fails to give a proper portrayal of the brand of football played by our team. The Panthers have been favorably commented upon by their adversaries for both good sportsmanship and team play. Let us glance back over those seasons. In 19 7, Joe Reznichak, former Buck- The 1940 season proved to be a most successful one for the Panthers and it cul- minated with the team being crowned champions of the North Jersev Intercol- legiate Athletic Conference. The season ' s record shows a total of eleven games won and only seven games lost. The highlight of the season was a no hit, no run game pitched by Happy Lieder, against Newark University. Only two men reached first base during the course of this game. Some of the kevmen of last year ' s team will be missing when the call for candi- dates is issued, but several promising members of the team and a few freshman prospects will serve as a nucleus for the 1941 team. These players include Bob Sterling, Ralph D ' Andrea, Tom Carey, Edward Lieder, Al Mangin, Art Beau- mont, Paul Piefke, George Falcone, Fred Bedle, and Red Herdic. During the past few seasons, the team has shown a record of thirty-one wins and seven losses. They are looking forward to a successful season this year and reign as a slight favorite to retain their North Jer- sev Intercollegiate title. B A S E B A I I FORTY-EIGHT nell star, w as engaged to coach our small team. There was quite a large turnout of candidates and after a practice scrimmage with Rutgers, it was predicted that Pan- zer would have a highl - successful season. Howe er, the team did not li e up to pre- season expectations as shown bv the final record of two games won and five lost. agner and Lo ell went down to defeat 18-0 and ig-o respecti elv. In 19:58 Alvin Davis took oxer the coaching reins and with no reflections on his coaching abilit -, the records show this to be our most unsuccessful season. In 19:59 Panzer gained a fifty-fiftv break for the season by defeating Stroudsburg, Brookhn, Trenton, and Bloomsburg, and bowing to Ithaca, U]3sala, Wagner, and Bergen. The highlight games of the 1940 sea- son were with Stroudsburg and Ilofstra. Stroudsburg managed to edge us out 26- 19 in a real thriller for an opening game. In the season ' s finals we nosed out the highlv fa ' ored Ilofstra team to the tune of 19-1:5. John Fiorcllino and Jerrv Bona- vita provided able assistance with the coaching and added much to the team.

Holders of the United States Intercollegiate record of forty-four consecutive victories. BASKETBALL With the passing of the 1940-41 sea- son, Panzer College loses four of its orig- inal Iron Men : Captain Jerry Kampf, Herman Knuppel, Moe Berger, Bibby Martens, and they also lose Bob Sterling who played such a large part in the suc- cess of this year ' s court campaign. During the past four years the team has made a most enviable record and they have lifted Panzer to a place of prom- inence in the sports world. The members of our team are all bona fide students at the college and they are not basketball specials that will be found in many schools in the metropolitan area. They have won the North Jersey Intercollegiate Basketball Conference for two years, which enables them to retain the James Cromwell trophy for another year. In addition to this Swede Masin was voted the outstanding player in the conference. Panzer has won a total of 77 games and has had losses over the last four years. During this time they have never lost a game on their home court and they have beaten all but one of the five teams in return games. They are the holders of the United States Intercollegiate Record for consecutive victories, having a total of 44 straight wins. The previous record holder was Long Island University who had a total of 4 straight wins. The streak was snapped by John Marshall College of Jersey City when they defeated us by a 4:5-40 score. At the present time the team is sup- porting a winning streak of fourteen games, and if they had not lost to John Marshall they would have had g straight games. Early in September, Coach Al Gorton issued a call for candidates and there was a splendid turnout of men for the team. After a preliminary training session the squad was cut and a working nucleus re- mained. The outstanding player of the freshman class was Red Herdic and he added much to the forward line. The team was not as successful last fall as they had been in previous years, but the old Panzer fight and spirit was evident in every game. The team only won one of their games, that being against Arnold College by a score of 2-1. They lost to Rider College, East Stroudsburg, Cort- land, Ithaca and West Chester State Teachers College. All of the games were closely contested, but Panzer was on the short end of the score. The team is look- ing forward to a better record next year. The team will be hard hit by gradua- tion as they will lose Thomas Thomas, Phil Peters, Bibby Martens, Bob Sterl- ing, George Luckman, and Morris Berger, manager. They have been members of the team for the past four seasons and I know Coach Gorton will miss them. A returning nucleus of players includes: Swede Masin, Red Herdic, Charles Scanlan, Happv Lieder, Norman Peder- sen, Howie Bornholm, Vinnie Cantelmo, Bob Kohrherr, Mel Ortner, George Au- maek, Hank Eckert, Ed Meisse and Don Simpson. With such veterans returning, the team is looking forward to a much more suc- cessful season next fall. s C C E R The Panzer hooters ivho represented us on the field. f fh f . H ;:« ■ •t:. - ! j SSS; . i r The track team tvhich h distinctly on the upgrade in the sports of the collegi T R A C K Track started as an incubator baby in the spring of ig S. During this season the team had only one meet; that being with Trenton State Teachers College. However, Harold Wickholm and Joe Brownlee entered the Metropolitan Class B Championships at Montclair and both took places. Harold took fourth place m the broad jump and Joe took third place in the high hurdles. The ig g season brought meets with Sa ' age. Trenton, Newark Col- lege of Engineering, and the Metropolitan Championships. Swede Masin and Phil Peters were outstanding in their achievements. The 1940 season was the best that a Panzer team had ever had. Meets were scheduled with Trenton, Wagner, Hofstra, St. Peter ' s, New- ark College of Engineering, Metropolitan Championships, and the North Jersey Conference meet. We beat Wagner in a dual meet and it was the first track win in the history of the school. Phil Peters, Tom Shirley, Henry Schwarz, Swede Masin, Joe Brownlee, Bob Swanson, Jerry Elfenbein, Charles Scanlan, Ed Beckman, and Ceorge Luckman did most of the scoring. The largest schedule in the history of the school is planned for the forthcoming season and with many veterans on hand, it is predicted that Panzer will have the best track team since the sport was started. FENCING The fencing team which was coached bv Carmine Dispenziere and captained by Bill Rooney, enjoyed a most successful season. During the course of the season, the team captured six bouts and lost only three. One of these losses was avenged in a return match with Brooklyn College, the team in question. The highlight of the vcar was the East- ern Intercollegiate Fencing Conference in which the team placed a ery close third. William Rooney and Pellegrino Ringi both captured two of the individual cham- pionships. Rooney garnered a second in the epec and a third place in foils, while Ringi placed second in sabres and third in foils. No members of this year ' s team will be graduated and with the help of new ma- terial we are confident that they will gar- ner the team championship in next year ' s intercollegiate meet. Tiio (if ! ' iiiipoi tiuf lanity sporfs of the college are the gym and fencing teams. GYM The gymnastic team of the college has not been as active in intercollegiate com- petition during the past year as it has been in pre ' ious years. Onlv two inter- collegiate meets were scheduled; both of them with ' est Chester State Teachers College of Pennsvhania. As usual the team had many demon- strations at arious institutions in the community. Exhibitions were given at the Orange Y.M.C.A., Morristown Y.M. C.A., Millburn High School, several schools in Newark, and in manv other clubs in the Oranges. An exhibition meet was held with Lincoln High School of Jerse ' Cit - and it was well worth attend- ing. Thomas Thomas will be graduated this year and he will be sorelv missed bv the team next year. He was the high point scorer on the team and has been a mem- ber of the team for four )ears. Howard Gorman will also be missed as he was the leading point scorer on the still and flying rings. FIFTY-THREE They lost only two games this season. B A S K E T B A I I The girls ' basketball team was again coached by Miss Nellie May Whitehurst and was captained by Kay Cairns. The team opened its season with a strong alumnae five and they managed to subdue them by a score of 50-20. Another victory was added to the list when the team traveled to Rider College in Trenton. The next game with Hofstra College proved to be a thriller. The Pan- zer lassies dropped behind by one point, just as the whistle was about to blow for the end of the game. Before the whistle blew, however, Gloria Erlandsen was fouled and she was given permission to trv for a goal after the game had ended. Tense moments followed, but Scotty made the goal and the joy of the girls was hard to conceal. The score- board read. Panzer 20 and Hofstra 20. The first mark in the lost column was made when were defeated by Rhode Island State Teachers Col- lege. We bounced back from this defeat by humb- ling our arch rival, Upsala, in a home and home series. The freshman girls played a great deal in these games as Upsala did not provide much competition for our varsity girls. We closed the season with Hunter Col- lege and we were defeated by a score of 22 to ig. The record compiled this ' ear is the best turned in by a girls ' basketball team during the past few seasons. x V ' ' ' FIFTY-FOUR ARCHERY FENCING The archery club is a direct outgrowth of the regularly scheduled classes in arch- ery as is required in the curriculum. Under the direction of Nellie May White- hurst, the more interested girls partici- pated in the sport during the extra-cur- ricular hour and during after school hours. In 19 7, the first New Jersey Intercol- legiate Archery Tournament was held in Newark and the Panzer team, which was composed of club members, was awarded first place. They followed this excellent beginning by annexing the team title for the next two years. We were less fortu- nate during the 1940 season, but we still were able to take second place in the team standings. Montclair State Teachers Col- lege won the team championship, largely through the efforts of Ann Weber who is the National Individual Champion. Many of the seniors will be leaving the club this year and the ' include: ' Shirley Teitelbaum, Jean Compton, Mary Kane, Catherine De Stefanis, and Marjorie Birn. Shirley Teitel- baum has been the highest indi- vidual scorer for our team and was runner-up last year for the state championship, having shot one per- fect round during the tournament. This is the ultimate goal of everyone who has ever strung a bow. They have compiled a fine record over the last few years. The women ' s fencing team was organ- ized in 19:59 and received recognition as a team from the Athletic y ssociation in the 19 9-40 season. During its first year the team entered into many intercollegiate meets but were not too successful because of lack of experience. The 1940-41 season, however, has proven to be successful and the team has had meets with such colleges as: Jersey City, Vagner, Hunter, Cooper Union, New York Universitv, Brooklyn, and Ilof- stra. This year the team entered the Indi- vidual Intercollegiate Tournament and was quite successful. Under the skillful and able coaching of Carmine Dispenziere, the team will attain those high standards which arc character- istic of the other sports of the college.
