KENNETH LAWRENCE ADER Rahway Ceramics 0 When Ken is not home rehearsing his orchestra for that big chance on Broadway, he can usually be found in the Ceramics building, either tending kilns or making test pieces. He hopes some day to manage a ceramics plant in the day time and wield a baton in New York at night. When he graduates we hope he will find a good position in one of these occupations. PHILIP ALAMPI Williamstown ALPHA ZETA Agriculture PHI BETA KAPPA 0 lt took Phil a good part of his Freshman year to become estab- lished at Rutgers, but from then on he made an excellent record, especially in the Ag College. His proficiency on Various judging teams exemplified his ability to accomplish an objective. During his last two years the pride of Williamstown apparently made good use of his spare time at the campus across town. We feel confident that Phil will be successful in his future work.

tion. Walter Spence, internationally famous sprint swimmer and class presi- dent, is another l934 product. Peaches Heenan, in baseball, football and basketball, lim Humphreys, in basketball and lacrosse, Lloyd Hirschorn, in water polo, football and baseball, and Red Demarest in football and basket- ball are other outstanding performers. The rise of sports at Rutgers has, in general, been one of the many signifi- cant changes in the life of Qld Queens during '34's stay here. George E. Little, coming here from the wide open spaces of Wisconsin, put Rutgers sports on a new basis, enlarging and solidifying the entire program and adding a wide intramural series with the aid of Harry Rockafeller. Our class -.z has been an important one in the rebuilding of many Scarlet teams. The break came while athletes of lf-334 were in a transition stage of varsity com- petition, and with the building of the new gym, have played a large role in , the new sports picture. i Qf more vital importance to the college as a whole has been the advent y of President Robert C. Clothier, former dean of men at Pittsburgh, who has, l in a short space of time, become one of us. Those of '34 who have been in T close Contact with him have known the President for the genial friend and T adviser that he is. Financial stress on the university has been great since the advent of the administrative head, but he has not been found wanting in the final test. His services to the university in general and to the several classes in particular will, perhaps, never be fully realized. Sung and unsung heroes are scattered throughout the class roll. There is Don Dickerson, editor-in-chief of the Targum, varsity sports manager and Phi Beta Kappa-one of the few men in recent college history to achieve such . distinction in addition to participating extensively in Student Council activi- 1 ties. There is George Kramer, whose work in non-athletic fields has been I unusually significant, and whose achievements in the field of sports has T helped to carry the name of Rutgers far and wide. Ranging with him in this regard is Walt Spence, who certainly merits a place with his recent predeces- sor, George Kojac, in the swimming Hall of Fame at this old stronghold of the tank sport. ln the domain of publications, in addition to Dickerson's work, Iohn Mackenzie, a late addition to the class roster, has been noteworthy for the rebuilding of two organizations which had been on the decline. Queen's Players and the Anthologist have flourished recently, and Mackenzie is also y y head of Philosophian. All three, through catering to particular groups on the campus, are highly significant in the role they have to play. 7 And there is Larry Leeds, the electrical engineer whose story is known to few. Entering as a freshman, with no credits, but a wide background of practical experience, this sandy-haired little figure who stalks the campus on . cold mornings with his cap pulled well over his eyes, worked for years before ffi. coming to college as radio operator on ocean liners and experimental assis- tant for the Bell Telephone Company. He has a Phi Beta Kappa key now I g E and a desire to participate in the eternal search for theoretical knowledge A35-5,22 ,,', in the scientific field. 'ng This, however, is not the story of individuals, but of a class. Perhaps the most characteristic of our achievements as such was the donation of S300 V b from the class fund for use by the University. This amount was part of the sstv V' n i- 4 profits from the Iunior Prom, and was awarded by a class vote after the affair. if All types are represented in l934. Though small, the class has its quota of 5 ..., every type of individuality that goes to make up the composite picture of j campus life. Through the four years has gone the vein of the depression that K . 5 has made its mark on the colleges as it has on every American institution. f lust what will be the end of the road for the members of '34 they, nor no one isa else, can tell. Certain it is that their years on the campuses of Queens College is T have helped rather than hindered them in their drives to whatever goals they if have set. l'l 3 ,f tif, PHILIP 1.

He is an industrious, 1 capable young man who goes about his tasks in an unassuming diligent manner. He talks but very little, but a good sign of the esteem in which he is held by his fellow-students is noted in- stantly by the attention he receives when he does have some- thing to say. The highest praise that can be given him is to say j that he is a students student. 1 A. I. E. E. C3, 43. STANLEY SPARGO ANDREWS Dover Pi Kappa Alpha Agriculture 0 Shorty, a member of Dover's state championship football team way back in the dark ages, became captain of the Army -at Rutgers. From this, it was just a step to membership on . the mythical national 150-lb. championship team. But athletics . is not Stan's only forte. His election to Alpha Zeta is evidence of y44g-V,V'q Vyyg lfgv W Www, prowess at books. But what we'll remember him for at the house will be his vigorous, though at times futile, efforts to collect I T, fraternity dues. A it BERTRAM deHEUS ATWOOD 4 Albany, N. Y.
