SPEEDBALL For the second time in nine years the Green and White Au¬ roras ruled the speedball field. With very little trouble and a great deal of teamwo rk, under the supervision of J. Thomas, they stood undefeated at the end of one of the best seasons in some time. The Callios led by veteran E. Todd, crossed the line just a hair ' s breadth ahead of Eskridge’s luckless Lucernes. It was a comparatively “tame” season. Students took charge of all official duties with a great deal of success. There were no injuries, serious or otherwise. Aurora victory can be accounted for by their abundance of substitutes and veterans. Lucerne defeat came as the result of a lack of substitutes and many times a shortage of players. The P and G girls were short in only one thing — one of the game’s most valuable assets — experience. BASKETBALL Walking off with the basketball championship, the Green gals chalked up their second undefeated season in 1943-44. V. J. Helms led the Auroras through six well earned victories. B. Covey’s Callios defeated Vincent’s Blue and Blue-ers for runner-up spot. Again student “refs” were employed with comparative success. Because of a lack of practice hours all three teams started out in a pretty ragged condition, but they were all playing heads up ball by the second round of games. Outstanding scorer of the year was Helms with 23 points per game to her credit. Ranking second was All-Star captain, M. Rosay. McComb and Runnels took top honors as defensive standbys. Representative athletes: Velma Jean Helms, Aurora; Eloise Todd, Callio; Marty Vincent, Lucerne.

Basketball ; (back row) Pickens, Lowell; Hernandez, Orion; Christensen, Lowell; (front row) Griswold, Parchie; Smith, cap¬ tain, Orion; Mori, Orion. SOCCER Displacing the Orions as champions, an inexperienced but hand-fighting Parchie squad upset the pre-season favorites, the Lowells and Orions, to win the soccer crown. The lead built up by the stellar playing of Reynales, Yamamoto, Orscheln and Gris¬ wold was enough to overcome a tie and defeat late in the season. Second-place Orions, handicapped through loss of players, were too inexperienced to live up to pre-season expectations. Sparked by Hernandez and Mori, they started to work together late in the season, but were unable to overcome the Parchie lead. Also handicapped through injuries and loss of players, the Lowells were the hard-luck team of the season. Corbin, Iwasaki, Brackett and Musgrave were outstanding for the Blue and Blue. BASKETBALL Taking the championship for the fifth consecutive year, the Orions won seven straight games after losing the opener to the Lowells. Hard hit by the loss of players, the success of the Green and White was due to their fast, accurate and deceptive passing, and their excellent team-work. Lewis Smith was particularly out¬ standing, with Mori, Hernandez and Schoolfield playing smart ball. The strong Lowell squad ended up in second place after giv¬ ing the Orions several hard games. The Lowells were an accurate and high-scoring team with Pickens, Cravens and Finch outstand¬ ing, but their play most of the time was lacking in teamwork. With only one regular, Griswold, back from last year’s squad, the Parchevards finished the season in the cellar. The Parchies possessed plenty of drive, but were unable to work as a team. Representative athletes: “Nails” Itvasaki, Lowell; Steve Griswold, Parchie; Pete Mori, Orion. im ! Top, left to right : “Y” show, Atoms and Acids features parody of opera, William Tell with D.

THE CDLLEGE ADMIIVISTHATIDX Under the stress and strain of completely reorganizing the edu¬ cational program of Park to meet the needs of the present world emergency, Park’s administration has kept on the job in retain¬ ing those things which have made the college the fine school it always has been, but discarding those things which are no longer applicable in a world at war. Sacrifice and postpone¬ ment of some desired factors in Park life were necessary, but the administration has done its best and a very good best it was. THE DFFICERS COMMANDING OFFICER Lt. H.

P- ef dona an JQ. ueen THE QUEEN Helen Piper — Graciously has pre¬ sided over Herr House this year — a staunch defender of her major, psy- schology — renowned as a clever seamstress — awaiting with eager¬ ness graduation day so she can join her family in their new California home. THE KING Jay Cantwell — A sociology major and a Navy man who is truly a Park- ite in spirit —- we’ll remember him as drum major of the band and instiga¬ tor of the successful Happy Hour — with cohorts Herrick and Covey, he has done much to enliven campus life. The Graduates of 1944 Predict Their Future WHO’S WHO OF 1964: Cynthia Shoens, Park College, ’44-—has fought and fought to keep the wolf from the door — Walt’s out trav¬ eling with a hot swing band — Cyn stays home to keep the li’l “Silvertacks” well in hand. Helene Piper — (we knew her as Helen) has a Helio¬ copter Beauty Salon, where the secrets of poisonality and charm she’s busily sellin’. Mini Morrow was rather “Curt” in 1944 — now she’s married to J. Moneybags Million and finds that society is really an awful, awful bore. Elash! A television report from the South Seas has just proclaimed the greatest scientific discovery of the age. Professors Janies Robinson, Eva Hannuni, Robert Aber¬ crombie, and Flossie Helmke, all graduates of Park Col¬ lege, ’44, have discovered that there is hidden meaning in the native dances of the islands of this area. Jeanne Hemstreet displayed great elocutionary talent when she appeared in the Pirate Pin-Ups of 1944 — she’s now reciting on a world-wide tour. After extensive study Doctorah Howell has become one of the leading veterinarians of New York City, specializ¬ ing in the psychiatric treatment of nervous race-horses. Park College library is now under the supervision of Roberta Lupton. “Luppy” as she was known in her colle¬ giate daze, informs us that the new inter-building televi¬ sor system at Park is enabling the housemothers to assure themselves the library permits are being used for study. Sympathy must be extended to Luz Doris Rosa Rose Shannahan Morgan O’Leary Turner Diaz in the loss of her sixth husband. Gervase Zanotti played his farewell recital last nighi. Steinway and Company regret his retirement as his piano destroying method greatly increased the piano business. In musical circles Carol Seay and Dorothy Holmes are now appearing at the Folly Theater selling candy. Professor Harold Parker sends word that his wife, Jean WMlfe, ’44, is working on a scientific diet for him. Sue Newell sends word that she is working as a hula dancer in Canities super-carnival sideshow. Helen Grif¬ fith is working as cashier with the same unit. Loiiann Reid’s new husband, Dave Larson, has assured her that she can sleep as late as she wishes and soak for hours in the bathtub. Ethel Metheny and Lucia Peterson are working in Loew’s Midland as chewing gum scraper-offers. Marjorie Barker is president of the Abner Yokum Benevolent Association, raising funds with a speech tour. Jay Cantwell is hunting wild bores in the sociology classrooms of United States colleges and finding many. Mary Helen Wharton is now a leading stylist in Saks on Fifth Avenue, New York.

Teams organ¬ ized bv the fellows are registered with the athletic officer V C7 SPORTS who plans the season with the aid of the athletics special¬ ists in the V-12 unit. It is regrettable that no photographs of the trainees’ sports were available for this edition. Copley Hot Shots and Nickel Nippers Victors in Barracks Volleyball IVNERS of the naval volleyball elimination tournament were the Copley-Thaw Hot Shots, coached by Specialist Anthony Montalbano. Undefeated during the entire sea¬ son of play, the Hot Shots played their final game with the Chesnut Dubs; the Dubs taking the first game, 15-5, with the Hot Shots taking the next two, 15-3 and 15-9, to win the set and the title. Teams of the inter-barracks league had nine men in order to enable more trainees to participate in the competition. Ten point games were the usual rule to save time. Members of the championship team were Walter Marquard, captain; Thomas Collins, Kenna Farris, Arthur Greathead, How ard Gotelli, Peter B. Hill, Russell Jones, James Locker, and Jerry Whalen. Winners of the consolation bracket were the Nippers, a team of men from Nickel barracks. Copley Sluggers Blank Stragglers; W. Eager Beavers Take Game Softball finds two leagues organized — the American league composed of Chesnut and W oodward teams, and the National league composed of Copley and Nickel teams. As we go to press, the season is not yet complete, but has been shortened to permit completion before the seniors graduate. Only un¬ defeated teams will play in the finals, with the Copley Sluggers being the fav¬ orites in the National league over the Copley Goldbricks and Copley Ram Rods. Most promising contenders for the American league championship are the Woodward Eager Beavers, who will compete with the Chesnut Gobs, W oodward Dirty Socks, and W oodward Blues, all of whom are undefeated. Bobby Layman Wins Cross-Country In Park’s annual cross-country run, Bobby Layman, W oodward V-12er, finished first with the time of 17 min¬ utes and 50 seconds over the 2.6 mile course. Clifford Reeves placed sec¬ ond with Emil ranich third. Reeves is a Chesnut man, while ranich hails from Copley-Thaw. Other naval participants were John asse, Cop¬ ley; Marian Rushing, Woodward; James Rippey, Woodward; and Bill Hagertv. Chesnut, who placed in that order. Civilian entrants in the meet were Carlos Reynales, Parchie, who placed fourth, and W illiam amamo- to who came in last. Trainee Swimmers Place In K. C. A. C. Open Meet Park’s -12 swimming team, com¬ posed of Paul Banks, Peter Hill.

Statistics on the season show the Auroras under “Bobbie” Watson taking second place, while Marj Olsen’s inexperienced but hard-fighting Lu¬ cernes finished in the cellar. W L Calliopeans 17 7 Auroras 15 9 Lucernes 4 20 Volleyball all-stars (see picture above) defeated an all¬ school team in a three game post-season set. H (I FT HA LL Softball saw the Calliopeans again taking the title, al¬ though the season was halted at the two-thirds mark by bad weather. Improved playing by all teams made the last games superior to the first error-filled contests. The Cal- lios took the championship by one game; the Auroras in second place, while inexperience held the Lucernes in the cellar. All-stars for the season were as follows: Doris Glidden, Lucerne; Gladys Hart, Aurora; Yvonne Rim- nels, Callio; Dorothy King, Aurora; Jerrie McComb, Au¬ rora; Joyce Lafoon, Aurora; Yvonne Grigg, Callio; Ann Harwood, Lucerne; Joan Gant, Callio; Pat Rankin, Cal¬ lio; listed in order of votes received.

In a post season game, the champion Orions bowed to the Copley-Thaw Hot Shots, winners of the trainee inter-barracks competition. Volleyball all-stars were elected by participants in the tournament play from all three club teams. Members of the dream-team took a three game set from the Hot Shot trainee team, winning the first two, 15-11 and 15-10.

Pete is active in all Park sports and won the men ' s ten- singles this spring in a trainee-civil¬ ian competition. H 0 FT li A L L Because of the dearth of manpower on the campus, members of the boys’ clubs organized one softball team from the membership of all three clubs. This team opposes teams from the naval inter-barracks league. After losing the first game and tying one, the fellows began to click as a team, putting up a good fight and winning a few contests.
