Graduate of the University in the class of 1916, sometime graduate manager of athletics and head coach of the varsity football team, he is now assistant director and associate professor of phys- ical education. As coach of the ISO-POUI1Cl foot- ball team, he brought two successive champion- ships to Rutgers in League competition, in 1939 he was given the University Award for faithful and unselfish service. lt is not because of these accomplishments that We pay him tribute, however. lt is because of our respect and admiration and affection for '4Rocky himself. He is our ideal of what a Rutgers man should be: friendly, honest, gen- erous, of kindly heart, and a straight shooter. To this upholder of Scarlet traditions, we dedi- cate our Scarlet Letter.

PREFACE A book such as the one you are about to peruse can have but one purpose: to record faithfully and pleasingly the events of another year of Rutgers history. It is our hope and belief that the year 1939-40 will be remembered as one of substantial achievement on all fronts, and that the University has in some measure benefited from our collective endeavors. From our point of view it has been a year of genuine pleasure as well as serious work, and, realizing the important role of life's lighter side in making our campus life the rich experience it has been, we have chron- icled this phase as well. Our constant aim has been to compile a balanced record. VV e have carried over from the preceding volume many of the innovations therein found, and we have struck out on different paths in several respects. Especially worthy of note in this year's volume is the elimination of all advertising, long contemplated and at last accomplished. To secure more space for heretofore cramped sections of the book, we have eliminated the junior individual pictures, which have always been a problem to an overworked photography staff., VV e have been fortunate in having the services of Peter Doblin, one of the foremost designers of fine books, whose advice and assistance were invaluable. Conservatism and good taste have been our guide, and we present our 1940 Scarlet Letter in the fond expectation that it will afford the reader enough pleasure and information to be placed beside its worthy predecessors.

The year 1766, so familiar to all Rutgers men, marked the fruition of the untiring efforts of a group of men who devoted many years of their lives to the securing of a charter from George III for the college eventually established in New Brunswick. In honor of the royal consort, Charlotte, the new col- lege was named Queenls. The first home of the infant college was The Sign of the Red Lion, a fine old colonial tavern. ln 1791 the college changed its location to a spot at the junction of George and Livingston Streets. The year 1809 saw the purchase of a site upon which was erected Old Queen's build- ing. john McComb, one of the foremost architects of the day, designed the impressive structure. Soon after the completion of Old Queenls, hard times necessitated an alliance with the Dutch Reformed Seminary, and in 1 825 the college was renamed in honor of Colonel Henry Rutgers, a rich philanthropist. The first fraternity, Delta Phi, made its appearance on the campus in 1845, and from that time forth the Greek-letter groups flourished. The crowded conditions in Queen's during the hot summer of 1856 led to the establishment of Holy Hill as the home of the Seminary. The increased funds made available at the close of the Civil VVar by Rutgers, designation as the land-grant college of New jersey resulted in the founding of the Agricultural College. One of the most far-reaching events was the first intercollegiate football game in 1869 in which Rutgers defeated Princeton on College Field. Rutgers grew rapidly after the turn of the century, and in 1918 The New jersey College for Women opened its doors. In 1924 the college had become so extensive that its name was changed to Rutgers University. The recent acquisition of the extensive River Road campus and the sub- sequent erection of a magnificent athletic plant on the tract presages a period of even greater development and progress for the University. Y ,,.,V?.,,....,,.. .. . , ,f . , -.X ROBI2R'l' C. CLo'r1-HER, fourteenth President of Rutgers, is a graduate of Princeton University in the Class of 1908. As an undergraduate in history and political science, he studied under Woodrow Wilson. He was also editor of THE DAILY PRINCETONIAN and a member of the student council. Dr. Clothier was in the personnel service of the Army during the World VVar and was later commis- sioned as a lieutenant-colonel on the General Staff. Immediately before coming to Rutgers he served as dean of men at the University of Pittsburgh. He has received the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws from the University of Pittsburgh, Princeton, Tusculum, Dickinson, New York University and Lafayette. He re- ceived an honorary Doctor of Letters degree from Temple. To THE Mmimcizs or THE CLASS OF 1940: YV e have enjoyed our association with you these last four years. They have been good years. Of course they have had their perplexities, but they have had their satisfactions too. Each of you is infinitely richer than when he came to the University as a verdant freshman. He knows a lot more than he did then. He is more mature by far more than four years. He has a sense of perspective which he lacked then. He has an appreciation of the importance of imponderables of which, as a fresh- man, he was just beginning to get a faint glow of understanding. Not the least of all is the wealth of friends and friendships which he has acquired. These are the fruits of your four years here at Rutgers. They will be yours down the years which lie ahead. These years which lie ahead are fraught with uncertainty-but not more so than in the case of the members of many other graduating classes. These years which lie ahead of you may have their uncertainties but they have their great promise too. Enter upon them with assurance and high hope and good cheer, not with a spirit of defeatism. Everything' else equal they will bring you your rich reward of happiness and achievement. Your present friends you will find will remain your friends until the end. The success which you achieve will reflect credit upon your University. Rutgers will watch you, each of you, as you go down the years with a sense of quiet boastfulness. I knew him when-H Our good wishes will go with you. I Febr1m1'y 28, 1940 Tolar. We.. BOARD OE TRUSTEES EX-OFFICIO Governor A. Harry Moore Chancellor Luther A. Campbell Chief Justice Thomas J.

El ,gig S Part of Rutgers tradition is DEAN FRASER METZGER who has held the post of Dean of Men for the past Hfteen years. Seated behind his glass- topped desk in Old Queen's or strolling breezily through the campus he is familiar to all, and to all he is known for his fairness in performing a truly diflicult task. Dean Metzger is prominent as a minister, educator, and social leader, and has also made his vigorous personality felt in a variety of other fields. His warm interest in individuals and their problems is at once apparent, and he admits conhdentially that he hates to bother with drivers' licenses, auto registrations, and haircuts. While not playing college-father to all those who come to him for guidance, help, and inspiration, he enjoys a stiff game ofhandball. The duties of the Dean's Office are numerous and far-flung and in- clude the supervision of student welfare, loan funds, scholarships, and undergraduate activities. Two men assist Dean Metzger in these tasks. Assistant Dean Edgar G. Curtin has risen rapidly since entering Rut- gers as a freshman in 1929. By 193 5 he had earned the degrees of Bachelor of Science and Master of Science. He now holds the secretaryship of the Committee on Scholarships. His dislikes are few, and he enjoys dancing and winter sports. A comparative newcomer to the Dean's Office staff is Cuno Bender, who holds the position of Assistant to the Dean of Men. Graduated in the Class of ,37, he coached the freshman football team the next fall. In 1938 he acted as an assistant in the Department of Physical Education. Last july he assumed his present duties which include the direction of outside housing. THE COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES The original college of the pres- ent University was the COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES, chartered as Queen's College in 1766. Its twenty departments of instruc- tion cover all the main fields of general knowledge, from astronomy to zoology. The nine curricula, each of which combines specialized learning with a Wide cultural background, include: language and literature, mathematics and natural science, bio- logical science, history and political science, economics, business admin- istration, government service, journalism and sanitary science. From his desk in Old Queen's, Dean VValter T. Marvin administers the multitudinous affairs of the college. Dean Marvin also holds the chair of Collegiate Church Professor of Logic and Mental Philosophy and is widely known as the author of numerous books on philosophy. Arduous as his duties are, he still regards his job as his hobby, although he Hnds it necessary occasionally to relax in swimming, playing golf or sailing his catboat. One of his fond hopes is the complete realization of the Honor School plan, which is still in its infancy in the College of Arts and Sciences. ,pr- ENGLISH bl. Milton French, Pn.n. C.

The seven main buildings are spread over the 7 50-acre campus along with many experimental green- houses and fields. The New Jersey Agricultural Experimental Station was established by the State in I880 for the benefit of practical and scien- tific agriculture and for the development of our unimproved lands. The Agricultural College Experiment Station was founded in 1 888 by laws of Congress and the State. An organic branch of the College of Agricul- ture, its Work is closely co-ordi- nated with the State Experiment Station. Dr. William H. Martin first came to Rutgers in 191 7 to get his Master of Science degree after graduating from Maine with an A.B. He earned his Ph.D. here in 1 1918. He was appointed dean of the College of Agriculture and director of the State Experiment Station in IQ 39 to succeed the late Dr. Lipman. Lauren S. Archibald, A-Ls. john VV. Bartlett, min. Firman E.

THE COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING At the close of the Civil VVar f+ Rutgers was designated the land- ,Ax grant college of New Jersey, and the subsequent expansion of the college brought with it, on April 4, 1864, the establishment of the DEPAR'FNIENT OF ENGINEERING, which became the College of Engineer- ing in 1924. The present Engineering Building made its appearance on Neilson Campus in 1908, and additions have greatly increased its fa- cilities. Prominent men in the field of engineering serve on the advisory board of the college, and upperelassmen in the various curricula have an op- portunity to consult with these experts, thus gaining much valuable information. An authority in his field is Dean Parker H. Daggett, who has headed the college for the past eleven years. He numbers among his capabilities those of composer and pianist and is known to Rutgers men of all cur- ricula as the man who wrote Hi Hi for the Scarlet. He believes that a successful engineer should be able to conduct himself gracefully and effectively in all walks of life, and this conviction is reflected in the liberal courses which engineering students are required to take.

THE SCHOOL OF CHEMISTRY Location in the heart of one of the country's largest centers of the chemical industries is one of the advantages enjoyed by the SCHOOL OF CHEixf11sTnY, which be- came a separate unit of the Uni- I i ' ' versity in 1930. A specialized curriculum is offered for students who wish a broad undergraduate training with chemistry as the major science, and for students who are preparing either to enter the chemical industry at the end of four years' training, or to do graduate work in chemistry. In addition to training those who expect to make chemistry their life work, the School also offers instruction to students of other schools and colleges of the University. The curriculum has been planned so that students receive a thorough training in the principles of chemistry and an understanding of the application of chemistry to industry. Dr. VVilliam T. Read, a Texan by birth, took over the duties of Dean of the School of Chemistry in 1930. In the course of his varied career he has engaged in many fields, among them newspaper and publicity Work. Many chemistry associations and fraternities claim him as a mem- ber, but in spite of his high position in the world of chemistry he main- tains the closest relations with his students. Delmar L.

THE SCHOOL OF EDUCATION The SCHOOL or EDUCATION was established in IQ23 to offer pro- fessional training for students wishing to teach in high schools or pursue graduate study to se- cure supervisorships, principal- ships, and city superintendencies. The School Works in close contact with school districts which need assistance. Demonstration schools are conducted, and each spring the conference of the New Jersey Second- ary School Association is held on the campus. An important aspect of the work of the School is the annual Sum- mer Session which offers an extensive range of college courses and courses for the training of teachers. Instruction in the Summer Ses- sion is given by members of the faculty of the University and visiting teachers and specialists. Courses are open to both men and women. Since 1917 Dr. Clarence E. Partch has been dean of the School. He is widely known in the educational world, but his versatility in other fields is evidenced by the fact that he numbers among his degrees that of Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering. VVhen not occupied with his official duties, Dr. Partch enjoys gardening and working about his home, which he designed himself. Herbert D. Bixby, A.M. Charles R. Foster, Jr., ED.D. Edward S.

Oc- cupying a modern building which is equipped with the finest type of laboratory facilities, the Depart- ment is recognized for its competence by all leading companies in the ceramic industry. lts location in one of the greatest clay-yielding sections of the world makes it possible for students to work in close contact with the industry. Consequently, thorough, practical, up-to-date training is assured. Created in 1902, the Department occupied its present building in 1920. The laboratories are fully equipped for reproducing on a small scale the most advanced industrial operations involved in the manufac- ture of ceramic products, such as brick, tile, terra cotta, refractories, porcelain products, glazes, glasses and enamels. Students completing the four-year course are qualihed to accept responsible positions in the ceramic industries or to undertake research problems. The curriculum is under the supervision of Professor George H. Brown, director of the department, who is an authority in the Held of ceramics. George H. Brown, cER.ENn., Laurence E. Kane, B.sc.

It seems only yesterday that we were freshmen, today We stand on the threshold of life as departing seniors. The intervening time has been so Hlled with memorable incidents and we have been so busily engaged in being col- lege men that the weeks, months, and years have gone by hardly noticed. Today we rub our eyes wonderingly and find it hard to recall these days so recently passed. What has happened and how has it happened so fast? Vaguest in our memory is freshman year, obscured by the host of events later to come. We do recall green ties and dinks, our fears of Hunking out, the first big dance, June, the first year completed with many falling by the wayside. More distinct are the recollections of the next year. We were sophomores, lording over the lowly frosh from whose ranks we had so recently departed. We reveled in being treated as equals among the upperclassmen. Next we were Juniors . . . men of the world. But we forgot our newly acquired sophistication long enough to go stark, raving mad over Rutgers' defeat of Princeton in the brand new stadium. Then suddenly we were seniors and though we tried to appear bored with it all, we were uneasy at the thought that it would soon be over and that we Above: Grasmere, President, Mehrhof, Vice Presidentg Donerly, Sec'y-Treas. would have to face reality. Now thisllast year is nearly ended. YVe marvel at the speed of Heeting time, and as we write the finish to our years at Rutgers we find that our most cherished possessions are memories. Memories of four happy years, comprised chiefly of the names and faces of our friends and those among us vvho have led the Way in our journey through Rutgers. 'VV e can recall in our minds countless visions of unforgettable events in these years now gone by. Bill Tranaviteh smashing to a touchdown, perhaps on a pass from Art Gottlieb, with Cooke, Craig, and Hotchkiss clearing the way. And there were others, Ashby, Daum, Flemmer, and Hotchkiss, mainstays of the Scarlet crew which came from behind to win at Red Bank, Paret, Barnes, and Kirk in exciting finishes in the pool, or the diminutive Joe Colonna battering an opponent in the ring. Then there were the leaders in campus affairs, Bob Gaynor, class president, junior year, Bob Grasmere, senior president, Carleton Dila- tush, president of the Student Council, Art Richings and Charles Ficken, Cap and Skull, Harry Joffe, editing the Targum, and a legion of others forever impressed upon our memories for things they have said or done. All have contributed to the honor of making the class of 1940 one of the most illustrious to pass through the portals of Queen's. We have all these and more to take with us as we leave our college days behind, but most unforgettable of all will be the setting in which these events took place and these men walked. The campus of our alma mater will always be a clear picture in our mind, and the mere mention of Rutgers will call into view some portion of its venerable buildings and shaded walks. The Class of 1940, which entered Rutgers 430 strong and has come into the senior year with 316 men still in good standing, found its importance as a part of the University a great deal during the past year. It is our parting hope as We pass from its confines that our presence here for four years has, in some ways, made it possible for those who come after us to enjoy it even more than we have.

JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY The CLASS or I94I, which entered Rutgers 542 strong in the fall of 1937, finds itself turning into the home stretch as senior year looms ahead. In the three years since that fall convocation which found each member of the class a bewildered freshman, the present juniors have gone ahead to cut their niche in Rutgers tradition. They sponsored one of the most successful Junior Proms in the University's history this year, some of the class were charter members of the Crown and Scroll, junior honorary society organized by the Class of 1940 for future juniors, and some of the most outstanding members of many varsity teams were taken from the ranks of the class. Albert Hasbrouck was elected president and James Wallace served as chairman of the Junior Prom. John Vaill was secretary-treasurer. The class organized the KEEPERS or QUEEN,S TRADITIONS as an honorary activities society for sophomores. The Class of 1942 carried out the club's purpose of sponsoring organized competition between the freshmen and sophomores. The 1941 crew triumphed in the interclass crew regatta on the Raritan for the second successive year. Frank Brock, Bob Bunnell, joe Varju, Ray Foster, VVallace and Orm McClave were among the out- standing athletes in the junior class. CROWN AND SCRCLL CROWN AND SCROLL is the newly organized junior honorary society Whose purpose is to aid the administration in orienting freshmen to the campus. Last year a group composed of Professor Richard C. Reager, head of the Public Speaking Department, Dr. W. Russell Greenwood, assistant physician to the University and instructor in physiology, and three seniors, Robert E. Gaynor, class president, Arthur W. Ritchings, Ball chairman, and Edward Kloos, secretary-treasurer, put forth the idea and had it approved by the Student Council and the administration. Method of selection for the society is by means of an activities point system in which the fifteen highest men in the class are picked. In this, its initial year, the newly reorganized society has cooperated with the administration by visiting freshmen in their rooms in order to help with any problems. It has also sponsored a series of freshman chapels, securing and introducing the speakers. Its most prominent activ- ity was in the administration of the sophomore-freshman week during March in cooperation with the Student Council. Above-Left: A. Hasbrouck, XVallace, Vaill. Below-First row: Wallace, Omley, Jefferds, Siry, Rockafeller, Hasbrouck. Second rofw: Radus, McManus, Barbash, Ritter, Crosby, Thomas, Nordberg, O'Neil, Levy. SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY THE CLASS OF 1942, largest in Rutgers history, probably marks a high peak for student enrollment for any Rutgers Freshman Class. This en- rollment Was greatly diminished by the heavy losses inflicted upon the class during its Freshman year. Only 438 members of the class returned to the Banks to begin their Sophomore year. Lyman Avery was elected President of the class for the Sophomore year, and Ted Sands was chosen Secretary-Treasurer. John Williams was choseneSoph Hop Chairman. While the Soph Hop was not a finan- cial success, it was one of the best dances of the year. The KEEPERS OF QUEEN7S TRADITIONS, established by the Class of 1941, was carried on successfully by the Class of 1942, and served an added purpose by promoting greater class rivalry between the Freshman and Sophomore classes. The Sophomore Class has its gridiron greats, among whom are Vinnie Utz, Ralph Schmitz, Otto Hill, John Verbitski, Bill Smith, Steve Capes- tro and Hank De Rensis, on the varsity, while Frank Patten, Lyman Avery, Kenney Gelber and Don Shallcross played 1 50-pound ball. With representatives in this and other activities, the Class of 1942 seems des- tined to take its place among the great classes of Rutgers. K. Q. T. The K1-ZEPERS or QL7EEN,S TRAD1T1oNs is an outgrowth of the sopho- more vigilante committee of the class of ,4I. A delegation from this class, headed by Howard Crosby, selected twenty-five men from the class of ,42 for membership in this new honorary society. Under the leadership of Ronald Jarvis, chairman, Robert johnson, secretary, and Lyman Avery, Student Council representative, an extensive program was evolved which was approved by the Student Council. The K. Q. T. is primarily concerned with the observance and enforcement of freshman rules. Although several freshman courts were held, few punishments were nieted out to violators of the freshman rules, for the court strove principally to inculcate Rutgers spirit and loyalty to tradition. Tugs-of- war between the classes of ,42 and 743, with the sophomores finally gain- ing an edge, the mystery of the missing rope, the green K. Q. T. hats, the stocks episode, and freshman attempts at retaliation all served to liven the year's activities. Above-Left: L. Avery, VVilliams, Sands.

N RS CAP AND SKULL Every year at spring convocation the twelve outstanding members of the senior class are tapped for CAP AND SKULL, senior honorary society. Most important of all the honor societies on the Rutgers campus, Cap and Skull has for its members twelve men who have shown great ability in the fields of leadership, scholarship, athletic and non-athletic activity. Nominations for membership in the society are made by a Board of Electors Whose selections are based on a comprehensive point system. Cap and Skull was founded in 1900, and remains as the coveted award for the well-rounded Rutgers man. Head of the organization for 1940 was Carleton C. Dilatush.

The Alpha Chapter of New jersey was founded here in 1 869, becoming the eighteenth chapter of this famed national honor fraternity, which emphasizes the scholarly ideals of academic life.

This is exclusive of the numerous club meetings and programs open to members only.

Corwin of N.j.C., Fraser Metz- ger, Dean of Men, and Mrs. Leah Boddie, Dean of lVomen, received the members of the class of 1043.

VVhile refresh- ments were being served, an exhibition of swimming and diving was given by members of the varsity swimming team.

Lee Temple played, Eleanor Daly sang and over 300 dancers Hlled the gymnasium to the delight of chair- man, Charles W. Piez. Buck Hill Falls VVeelcend, under the direction of the University Glee Club, offered an excellent opportunity for winter sports this year. Skiing was good on the trails, tobogganing was fast and iceskating smooth. Saturday evening's Glee Club Concert, followed by dancing and topped off by a midnight barbecue, was the highlight of the between-term festive get-together in the Pocono Mountains. Chapcrons were Pro- fessor and Mrs. Earl Reed Silvers and Assistant Dean and Mrs. Edgar G. Curtin.

The gym assumed a nautical atmosphere for the event, the floor resembled the main deck of a ship and the balcony was converted into an upper deck. With the doors to the swimming pool open, a replica of a ship's cabin was constructed in front of the pool, the two being sepa- rated by an iron railing to designate the boat's side. The balcony was decorated with life-boats, life-rings, anchors and pennants and the entire ceiling Was clothed in blue.

JUNIOR PROM More than seven hundred couples danced to the strains of Glen Gray and the Casa Loma Orchestra at the JUNIOR PROM, Friday, February 23. The affair gave the illusion of dancing under a star-studded sky. The gymnasium was draped in cloth of midnight-blue with pentagonal lights, to represent stars, suspended from the ceiling. Wliite cloth clouds Were hung from the rafters. The programs for the Prom featured the University theme of scarlet and black. Bound in scarlet suede, the cover displayed a picture of Queen's Building backgrounded by a silvery moon. Featured at the dance was the Casa Loma rendition of a Rutgers Hit Parade?

The ten-point plan of improvement for fraternities was accepted and many houses have already begun to put it into effect. Unrestricted rushing was re-instituted after having been absent on the campus for several years. For the first time since the University adopted its new marking system, the Council set a definite initiation average which Will be required of all candidates for fraternity initiation. The annual Interfraternity Ball, sponsored by the Council, featured Everett Hoagland and his Orchestra. Dr. Harry S. Rogers, president of Brooklyn Polytechnic Institute and national president of Alpha Tau Gmega fraternity, was guest speaker at Interfraternity Banquet. .Mevlzbers for 1940: Dilatush, Hasbrouck, Moss, Lowery, Baldwin, XValIace, Meredith, Rockafeller, Grasmere, Christensen, Common, Mattoon, Temple, McClenahan, Altreuter, Nordberg, Erdman, Jefferds, Mayers, Erbe, Freedman, Levitszky, Maupai, Potter, Tranavitch, Scott, Swenson, Keating, Estrin, Brawer, Eisenberg, Cohen, Phillips, Renoux, Barnes, Szot, Schooley, McManus, and Advisor-J.

Interest was aroused in the idea at a meeting of alumni fraternity members at Newark Athletic Club at that time. Dr. Clothier and Dean Metzger addressed the meeting, telling of fra- ternity eonditions on the campus and suggesting aid by the alumni in bettering conditions for the undergraduates. The Committee grew out of that meeting and has assisted the undergraduate chapters wherever possible. Morris M. Davidson of Bound Brook, Delta Phi, was named the chairman of the executive committee which was formed within the Alumni Interfraternity Committee. Other members are Henry G. At- water of Westfield, Chi Psi, Wallace E. VVirtz of East Orange, Delta Kappa Epsilon, I-I. Richard Segoine of New Brunswick, Delta Upsilon, Dr. Carl R. VVoodward, secretary to the University, Phi Gamma Delta, Daniel Safford of Newark, Beta Theta Pi, Newton H. Potter, jr. of Montclair, Zeta Psi, Harold Johnston, assistant to the president of Rutgers, Pi Kappa Alpha, and Ernest E. McMahon, alumni secretary of the University, Theta Chi. The Alumni Interfraternity Committee acts only in an advisory capacity, there is no action forced on the undergraduates by it. Its execu- tive committee has met with both Dr. Clothier and Dean Metzger in discussion of the fraternity problems. Also, members of the committee have 1'I1Ct with representatives of the undergraduate Interfraternity Council. In January the Committee sponsored a meeting of the alumni advisers of the nineteen campus fraternities and a week later it conducted a meeting of the financial advisers of the fraternities. Subject for dis- cussion in these meetings was naturally the attainment of better con- ditions for the undergraduate chapters and better relations with the administration. , - f - fi if 1 ,. 1142- V, -if Y ,,. , ,,tL:.z.,zEf, 35, -.f'f-. .Jn- - J'- DELTA PHI The Rutgers campus and the Epsilon chapter of Delta Phi were the scene of the annual national convention of that fraternity in May. Repre- sentatives of all fourteen chapters of Delta Phi were present to take part in the activities. Last spring Epsilon won the last leg of the intramural track trophy and retired it perrnanently. Another activity carried on during the year was the redecoration of the entire second floor. is Laurence P. Runyon 740 served as president during the past year and was assisted by Leon B. TCHlPlC,,4O, vice-presidentg Craig F. Haaren ,4I was secretary and Roger W. Brett 740, treasurer. The oldest fraternity on the Rutgers campus, Delta Phi's local chapter was founded in 1845. Nineteen men under the leadership of William H. TenEyck were charter members. Delegates from the Union, Brown, N. Y. U. and Columbia chapters initiated the Rutgers men into the fraternity after application was ac- cepted by the national organization. a a During the first forty years of the chapter's existence, the members met in rooms secured here and there in the city. Finally the first chapter house was acquired on Hamilton Street, next to New jersey Hall. It was destroyed by fire in IQ 30, and has since been revamped to house the University Extension offices. The present house, located at I7 Union Street, was soon purchased, enlarged and made colonial in style, with the help of alumni. Class of 1940: Roger W. Brett, William S. johnson, David H.

Talbot, Jr. headed the Delta managers, having charge of the football team. Warren H. Lasher was manager of the swimming squad and Arthur R. Ambrose carried his managerial duties to the crew. William S. Gillam was a senior manager of debating. The second oldest fraternity on the Rutgers campus, Delta chapter was founded just one and one-half years after the establishment of the first chapter at New York Uni- versity in 1846. Because of the strong feeling against Greek-letter fraternities, however, Delta did not come forth ofticially until the year 1848. I The chapter is known in Zeta Psi as i Mother of Chapters because no less than six other chapters of the fraternity owe their existence directly or indirectly to the zeal of Delta. After years of holding meetings in haylofts and back rooms, the chapter bought its Hrst house, on the present site, in 1889. The present structure replaced it in 1925. Vllilliam S.

The strong chapter team Went through its schedule to triumph with comparative ease over all opposition. Three animal social events were on the 1939-40 calendar for Phi Zeta. The Mothers Club held its annual card party, a Christmas banquet was given for underprivileged children and the annual Initiation Banquet -- was held in February. A major event in the history of the national fra- ternity took place in the fall when Theta Nu merged with Lambda Chi Alpha. The eighty-eight chapters in the fraternity were increased to one hundred and six by the addition of the eighteen in tl1e smaller organization. Phi Zeta was the ninth chapter of the national fraternity to be established. In 1913 a group of four undergraduates formed the chapter which niet for the first time in a room in VVinants Hall. A house on Mine Street was rented in 1914, and in 1915 the chapter moved into a University-owned house at 501 George Street. The house at 164 College Avenue was purchased in 1920. Robert C. Bridegum '40 served as president during the year, Robert D. Seeley '40, vice-president, Kenneth M. Kaiser '41, secretary, and Paul S. Monroe '40, treasurer. C lass of 1940: Samuel A.

PHI EPSILON PI The winning of three cups-two of them for excellence in scholar- ship-featured the 1939-40 year for Lambda of Phi Epsilon Pi. The chapter was given the Interfraternity Scholarship Award for the third time as a reward for its scholastic rating which was highest on the campus. In the national fraternity as well, Lambda garnered the scholarship cup for the third year. It also won the Phi Epsilon Pi Activities Award this year. This chapter has Won that cup for fourteen ii' rl . ll e T COHSCCLIIIVC years. . 'X e The activities on the campus which helped Lambda . X. 1 F. win the activities trophy again this time include members active in many non-athletic extra-curriculas, among which are Queenls Players, Targum, and various honorary societies.

I-l PHI GAMMA DELTA The Nu Beta chapter of Phi Gamma Delta has continued to be very prominent in the number of social events held throughout the year and in the participation of the members in extra-curricular activities. The social events include a Father and Son Banquet, a Kiddies Christmas Party, Alumni Smoker, Deans Dinner, Parents Tea and Faculty Smoker. The fraternity contributed men to the varsity football and basketball teams as well as to numerous other campus activities. This year the Phi Gams made considerable im- provements in their house by buying new furniture, redecorating the rooms and installing a new stove. The national fraternity of Phi Gamma Delta was founded at VVashi11gton and jefferson in 1848. From this ti111e o11 it grew rapidly f until there are now 73 chapters. The Nu i i Beta chapter was started in 1909 at a meeting in VVinants Hall and was known as Rho Sigma Zeta. The following year the Scarlet Club, the father of Nu Beta, was formed. After a Calllpalgll under the slogan Phi Gamma Delta or nothing the club was admitted to the national fraternity in 1917. Eugene Maupai ,4O led the chapter throughout the year as presi- dent. The other officers include: VV. Donald Davidson ,40, treasurer, Kenneth C. Mehrhof ,4O, recording secretary, Wallace Van VVinkle 740, corresponding secretary, and Robert M. Bunnell ,41, historian.

The annual Father and Son Banquet in October was held in the chapter house as were several Alumni and Pledge dinners. Edward J. Kloos '40, was honored by the national fraternity when it rated him the third best secretary in all 109 chapters of Kappa Sigma. Other officers for the year included john T. Smith '40, president, Robert E p 4 B. Braid '40, vice-president, and Leonard H. Cooke i '41, treasurer. a gg The chapter redecorated the house dining room 5 and ballroom as it continued its program of improve- ments on its physical property. New fur- A nishings were also added to these rooms. The Kappa Sigma fraternity was founded December Io, 1869 at the Uni- versity of Virginia by five friends, who, Wishing to belong to the same fraternity, decided to found a new one. Two years later one of the brothers came in contact with some of the few remaining mem- bers of a mutual protection society which had been founded at the University of Bologna in 1400. These remaining members of the ancient group conveyed the secrets of their fraternity to the American on the understanding that they would be instituted into the new organization. Thus Kappa Sigma traces its history back 340 years. Class of 1940: Frederick M. Adams, Robert B. Braid, Albert F. Erd- man, John S. Hall, Edward Kloos, Otto W. Kunkel, John T. Smith, and James A.

RARITAN CLUB A new policy which endeavors to foster an interest in worthwhile subjects was instituted by the Raritan Club this year. After a full year's trial the plan proved a success and will be continued as a permanent policy by the fraternity. The house attended an opera in New York in February as a body. It also Went to the Little Theatre productions at New Jersey College for Wonieii. Fathers Day was held on November 25 when all fathers of the under- graduates Were invited to hear a talk by Professor Edward F. Johnson and motion pictures of Rutgers football games of the past season. Pledge Sunday in September and the annual Founders Day Banquet in March completed the social calendar for the year. Serving as president during the past year was Gilbert G. Roessner 740. Joseph A. Mohr '40 was vice-president, Edward Bautz, jr. ,4I, treasurer, VVar- ren H. Swenson ,4O, steward, james J. VVilno ,4I, secretaryg and Walter D. Trott 740, historian. The Raritan Club is the only local fraternity remaining on the Rutgers campus, three others in rece11t years having merged with national fraternities. The organization was founded in 1912 by a group of men who struggled for the fraternity's existence until 1926 when the Uni- versity granted a fraternity charter to them. The spirit of 'zzl' still exists in the friendly camaraderie of the Club. From the original house on George Street in 1927 the fraternity moved to Mine Street, and then in 1930 first occupied a house on College Avenue, opposite the Gymnasium. The present house 'was take11 over in 1938. Class of 1940: joseph Jingoli, joseph A. Mohr, Gilbert G. Roessner, VVarren H. Swenson, Walter D. Trott, and John W. Zimmerman.

No less important in the eyes of the undergraduate brothers scholarship standing which the chapter held on the campus 1938-39 year. Sigma Delta Hnished second in campus rating the position it has occupied for several years. In extra-curricula activities the chapter is resented. The treasurer of Interfraternity as Well as several dance committee chairmen and honor society members have come from the Sigma Alpha Mu house. In athletics the chapter has excelled especially in swimming and track. Sigma Delta is represented in the na- tional fraternity organization by two alumni who are members of the Supreme Executive Council. Louis F. Vogel '40 has headed the chapter during the past year in the office of prior. Other ofhcers included Douglas M. Schatzberg '41, exchequer, Morton H. Estrin '40, recorder, and David L. Elks '40, historian. Sigma Delta was founded on the Rutgers campus as the Sigma Delta Club, a local fraternity. In 1928 the organization became Sigma Delta chapter of Sigma Alpha Mu. The national fraternity was founded on November 26, 1909, at the College of the City of New York. As a local, Sigma Delta was housed at 39 Mine Street, but after its merger with the national fraternity it expanded and moved to its pres- ent quarters at 78 Easton Avenue. Class of 1940: David L.

L TAU KAPPA EPSILON The Alpha Eta chapter of Tau Kappa Epsilon has completed its second year in its new home at 192 College Avenue and its ninth year on the Rutgers campus. A number of material improvements and ad- ditions have been made to the interior of the house in the last year. Like many other fraternities on various campuses, the TKE chapter has abolished all forms of hazing and hell week ceremonies. Alpha Eta becomes the first fraternity on the Rutgers campus to take such action. Many of the undergraduates in the TKE house have attained prominence in athletics and extta-cur- ricular activities. Perhaps foremost in this group is Charles P. Craig who this year finished four years of varsity football. One of the brothers is president of the Rutgers chapter of Tau Beta Pi, national honorary scholastic engineering society. Twelve years ago a new fraternity known as Phi Sigma Tau was formed through the efforts of John Mulhern 'z 7, Charles Kieswetter '29, and Salvatore Salerno '29. Thirteen charter members applied for a petition for recognition to the Board of Trustees on jan- uary 14, 1927. Due largely to the hearty recommendation of Dean Fraser Metzger, Phi Sigma Tau was accorded the unusual distinction of having a charter granted in response to its first petition. Permission was granted to petition a national fraternity on December 27, 1929, by the University authorities. The unit was installed in the national ranks on june 4, 5, and 6 of 1930 as the Alpha Eta chapter of Tau Kappa Epsilon. The Alpha Eta chapter elected Ablett H. Flury, Jr. '40, presidentg VV il- liam H. Gcbert '40, vice-president, Raymond L. Mitch '41, treasurer, and Charles P. Craig '40, secretary. Class of 1940: Charles P. Craig, Ablett H.

Lamond, Emil Potzer, jr., and Ralph F. Sellers. 1 , , , , ALPHA KAPPA PI A Fathers Club was organized by Rho chapter of Alpha Kappa Pi to mark another step in the chapter's effort to bring the parents of the undergraduates in closer contact with the fraternity. A Mothers Club has been in existence for some time, but this year was the first attempt to organize the fathers. Parents Night was held on November 25, and during the program the fathers held their first meeting and made plans for a permanent organization. Rho has done considerable work on the chapter house during the year. The entire third floor was insulated and four study rooms were redecorated. A FT' -4-1274 -' F recreation room was also constructed in the basement. Among the campus leaders in extra- curricular activities Rho was well repre- sented. Senior managers of both crew and debating were members of Alpha Kappa Pi. The business manager of TdTgZl7l1 and one of the junior news editors of that publication also came from Rho chapter. Two of the varsity backs on the ISO-PO1.1I1d football team as well as several outstanding players in other sports are listed among the frater- nity's athletes for the year. George L. Van Dillen '40 served as president during the past col- lege year. Other oflicers included: james B. Cortright '40, vice-president, VV. Kenneth Moss '40, secretary, Ransom F. Gladwin, jr.

A bowling match and softball game between the actives and graduates in the afternoon was followed by dinner. A houseparty in the evening completed the program for that day which is planned to promote closer relationships between the alumni and the chapter. Also included on the social calendar for the year was the Installation A ggv. Banquet in April for the new officers, the Pledge X i' Banquet in February, the annual Spring Outing for the entire house, a Mothers Club Tea given in january at the house, and the annual Parents Day Tea which was held in May. In the Spring of last year Beta Delta triumphed in the intramural bridge com- petition to bring the trophy home. The winning team was made up of Frank Mc- Henry and Frederick P. Brown. Beta Delta established a budget system of finance this year for the Hrst time in Eve years. The old library was replaced A by a new set of shelves matching the paneling in the living room. Over zoo volumes were also added to the library. Alfred Leech '40 served as president of the chapter during the year, and was assisted by J. Douglas Hotchkiss '40 as vice-president, john L. Pennino '40, treasurer, VV. Kenneth Smith '40, secretary, and An- drew J. Ruska '40, marshall.

TAU DELTA PHI This year saw the Tau Gamma chapter of Tau Delta Phi move into its new home at 4 Union Street. Among those present for the dedication ceremonies held during the second week of school were oilicers of the national fraternity, Dean Metzger and alumni. The new chapter house has been purchased and completely renovated largely through the eHorts of Philip A. Bruskin, one of the Tau Delts' outstanding graduates. Tau Gamma of Tau Delta Phi was introduced to the Rutgers Campus in 1921, when a group of students with the same interests at heart, founded the Evergreen Club. This body of men, although relatively small, made up in quality and activity what they lacked in size. As this group grew in importance and , strength it felt that expansion was in order. Accordingly, in 1928, it became the Eta chapter of Omicron Alpha Tau. This fraternity, as did the Evergreen Club, produced men who have proven their worth in the economic, social, political, scientific, and educational fields of en- deavor. Then, in june of 1934, the entire Omicron Alpha Tau Fraternity merged with the Tau Delta Phi Fraternity and the best features of both were combined. The Rutgers Chapter then became known as Tau Gamma of Tau Delta Phi. Tau Delta Phi contributed new ideals and a new spirit. It is known in fraternity circles for its ideal administrative program, its selectiveness and its progressive, ever-expanding spirit. The Brotherhood formed here by the Tau Delts has become an integral part of Rutgers lore and tradition. The oflicers of the Tau Delta Phi local chapter are Marvin Rosen- krantz '40, consulg Sol A. Bachrach '40, quaestorg Irving L. Bander '40, vice-consul, Gerald S. Blum '40, editor-historiang Marvin M. Soper- stein '40, pledge captaing justin L. Weiss '42, scribe.

ALPHA CHI RI-IO At the annual Alpha Chi Rho national convention held early in the present school year, the Beta Phi chapter was rated as the most pro- gressive of the Fraternity's twenty chapters. The Beta Phi chapter had three of its men in the line-up when the Scarlet took to the gridiron this fall. It was also represented on the ISO- pound football team as well as in many other extra-curricular activities. Alpha Chi Rho is also the only house on the Rutgers campus to have three men on the Student Council. The membership in- cludes the president of that body. The seed which has grown into the present Beta Phi chapter of Alpha Chi Rho was planted fourteen years ago when a group of students living in Hcrtzog Hall formed a local fraternity called Alpha Sigma Rho. In 1937 this group petitioned the Alpha Chi Rho Fra- ternity for membership and was accepted in February of that year. The Alpha Chi Rho Fraternity was founded at Trinity College, Hartford, Connecticut, in 189 5 by Carl Ziegler. The first formal meeting of the organization was held on june 4, 1895, and Alpha Chi Rho was launched as a national frater11ity. Joseph Pfingstel is president of the Rutgers chapter. Other officers are: Carleton C. Dilatush '40, vice-president, Edward F. Dwulet '40 secretary, Hoidel E. Tambo '41, historian, H. Ernest Young '41, treasurer, David Berdan ,42, ritual officer, john A.

ACTIVITIES ,- STUDENT COUNCIL Founded by a resolution of the faculty in 1 894, the STUDENT COUNCIL enjoys the highest position of student responsibility on the campus. The Council is based on the principle that student action is best governed by student deliberations. Council members try at all times to keep in touch with the main currents of undergraduate feeling, and at the same time to consider the plans and desires of the faculty and administration. The meetings are open to all who wish to attend, a policy which was put into practice for the first time this year. Each spring sixteen candidates are selected by a point system which embraces scholarship, athletics, and extra-curricular activities. The entire student body takes part in the election in which eight men are selected for membership in the Council. In addition to these men there are four ex-officio members. Abofue: Colonna, Grasmere, joife, Ritchings, Russo, Dilatush, Ficken, Hasbrouck, Avery, Gaynor, Taylor, and Van Nostrand. The Council roster for 1939-40: Carleton C. Dilatush, president Charles H. Ficken, vice-president Edwin L. Taylor, secretary Robert E. Gaynor, treasurer joseph A. Colonna Arthur WV. Ritchings Ralph J. Russo Richard K. Van Nostrand Robert H. Grasmere, president of the Senior Class Albert R. Hasbrouck, president of the junior Class Lyman C. Avery, president of the Sophomore Class J. I-larry joffe, editor of The Tnrgzmz The year has been an extremely active one for the Council. Its activ- ities ranged from contributions to the Chess Club to making it possible for the University Band to travel to Providence for the Thanksgiving Day game with Brown. As a result of action by the Council the Univer- sity authorities were induced to make future provision for the band so that Council funds will not have to be used for this purpose again. ln conjunction with the VVomen's College the Council sponsored a round- table conference on peace which brought to New Brunswick many authorities on world and domestic affairs. Under the sponsorship of the Council, Frosh-Soph week was inaugurated for the purpose of promoting organized rivalry between the two classes. Contributions to the Art Lending Library were made in the hope that like action on the part of other organizations would be encouraged. Petitions for funds were pre- sented by many extra-curricular clubs, and the majority were granted in whole or in part after deliberation. Delegates from the Council attended a conference on student government at Lafayette at which representatives of many colleges and .universities were present. DEBATING Another milestone in the history of DEBATING under the direction of Professor Richard C. Reager was passed this year with Rutgers entrance into the Eastern Intercollegiate Debate League. Debating, always a popular activity, has been voted the most Worthwhile activity on the , campus for ten consecutive years. This year approximately one hundred men participated in the debate program with a number of fine prospects from the freshmen class. The highpoint of the year's program was again the series of five trips which certai11 qualiied seniors took through the middlewest. The first trip, to Chicago, included Robert E. Gaynor, Harry Kerz- ner, Kenneth C. Mehrhof, Horace Michelson, and Carleton C. Dilatush, manager. The second trip, to Chicago, was taken by Sidney Brown, Edwin A. Margolius, John A. McCurdy, Martin Z. Post and George L. Van Dillen, manager. The third trip, to Ohio, was taken by Paul Dembling, Alexander Ganz, Theodore K. Robinson and Melvin J. Welitoff, acting manager. The fourth trip, to Ohio, included Charles G. Donerly, Edward J. Kloos, Harold H. Martin, Wilder A. Tasker and Martin Weingold, manager. The fifth trip, to Ohio, included Wfilliam Schooley, Arthur L. Talbot, Jr., Edwin L. Taylor and Williaili S. Gillam, manager. . VVillian1 S. Gillam '4o was the senior in charge, while George Van Dillen '40, Carleton C. Dilatush '40, and Martin Weiiigold '40 were the associate senior managers. Gordon Behn, VVilliam Bobertz, and Kenneth Lowery were the junior managers.

GLEE CLUB Under the capable leadership of Director Howard D. McKinney and Conductor F. Austin VV alter, the GLEIS CLUB has acted, in concerts and radio programs, as good-will representative of the University before alumni and public groups throughout the state. The feature event of the season was the combined singing with the clubs of Columbia and New York University, presented as the fourth pro- gram of the University Concert Series and re- . peated later at Town Hall, New York. The eighth annual VV inter Sports Weekend, sponsored by the club, at Buck Hill Falls, was the distinctive social event of the year. The 0Hicers of the club are: Professor Howard D. McKinney, di- rector, Mr. F. Austin VV alter, conductor, E. Ellsworth Sutphin, man- ager, Frank XV. Herstine, president, George N. Gulick and Harlow N. Meckes, assistant managers.

The band, directed by its new leader, Vernon VV. Miller, entertained the thousands of spec- tators who followed the team in one of its most successful seasons with popular music as well as the traditional Rutgers songs. The fading autumn sun will never again play upon the moving specks of scarlet on the velvety sweep of the gridiron, for the old band uniforms of red sweaters, white flannels and duck crew hats have been supplanted. A change in uniforms had been contemplated for many years, but until recently no steps were taken to remedy the situation. Aided by contribu- tions, funds accumulated from the annual band concerts, and the receipts from a battle of swing for which four campus bands donated their services, the band this year found it possible to take the first step toward the actual acquisition of new uniforms. Sergeant Arthur E. Wilbtir of the Military Science Department designed a uniform which, pending War Department approval, will be worn next fall. The new outits call for scarlet trimmings on the olive-drab uniform now in service in the R. O. T. C. A one and one-half inch tape will be added to the trousers, and red braid will be attached to the sleeves. Scarlet lapels will take the place of the regulation blue, and scarlet piping will be added to the col- lar and the seam of the jacket. According to custom, the annual Band Concert was presented on April zoth. A marked success, the concert was divided into six parts, five seniors and Mr. Miller each conducting a part. - 1 Lf.gLi..x-ffff f ,V , J 1 1 x--'-.,,.- .Y-A, , .,..- L. x17 Y -,,Lr.s'rjr'- 1,f,f f '.' ..'L 'Lf V. :V ,,-.,.W., , ,A V ,. 121:-,rf.igff 1 ff f 2?'j'2f.-Q.: i' ' 55' if .n. 5 f- : :'-1'7s:'F:- -' - 1.-' sr' - I My 5 Z3 , .,,.4::.:125.,11v. 1 , -- '-Lv --, ,T 'ig 1545 .Y.cLen1:-,::f'-1- ,f - ,:-xr:-:grnwp 1 ,,.,,.,,,JY?4' 1- b xx :,,.

Audiences at the five concert programs in the series were privileged to listen to the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra, Elizabeth Rcthberg and Ezio Pinza, Ethel Bartlett and Rea Robertson, the Glee Clubs of New York, Columbia, and Rutgers Universities, and the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Eugene Ormandy conducted the Philadel- phia Symphony Orchestra in the opening con- cert of the series on October 2 3. The renowned symphonic unit presented a program of four musical compositions, ranging from the clas- sical and romantic to the modern. They ac- knowledged the applause of the audience by playing three encores. llflost widely acclaimed selection in the program was Tchaikovsky's Romeo and Juliet. The second concert, on November zo, brought to the campus Eliza- beth Rethberg and Ezio Pinza, well-known artists of the Metropolitan Opera Company. Their two-hour program included sixteen composi- tions of such noted composers as Mozart, Handel, Brahms, and 'lfVolf. A mystery concert was the surprise feature of the series, when Myra Hess, English pianist, and scheduled artist for the third concert, was detained in England because of the war. The names of the substi- tute artists for this concert remained a secret until the evening of the performance of January 8. Ethel Bartlett and Rea Robertson, the world's best-loved piano duettists, presented a program of favorite selections from Bach, Handel, and Strauss. The fourth concert of the series was presented by the combined l Glee Clubs of New York, Co- lumbia, and Rutgers Universities, on March 1 1. A unique concert in the series, it was repeated after a similar program in the tenth Con- cert Series was acclaimed a success. Sergei Koussevitsky returned to New Brunswick with the inter- L. fi' nationally famous Boston Sym- S i'g'wif phony Orchestra for the final con- ' cert of the eleventh Concert Series. Appearing on April 3, this symphonic orchestra delighted the audience with their remarkabl tions of the program of classical masterpieces. famed e rendi- 1 i SCARLET LETTER grief 7 viilllaggits' -' HT :A I , .gi , :rt H Sixty-seven editions of TIJE SCARLET LETTER are extant in the University Library.

QUEEN'S PLAYERS After two years on the campus, varsity show WCIIE into temporary re- tirement for 1940. Faced with almost insurmountable obstacles in the lack of a University theatre and dramatics staff, QUn:EN's PLAYERS, under whose sponsorship varsity show was revived, and the administration de- cided to stop production while a more sound basis upon which future shows will be planned could be devised. The administration found it impractical to act on the recommendations this year, but there is every indication that next year will see Rutgers men again deriving the tangible and intangible benefits which result from participation in a collegiate pro- duction. Each of the departments of Queen's Players has drawn up a report with recoinmendations for the future. Officers were: Robert H. Grasmere '40, president, Francis XV.

TARGUM Founded as a monthly publication in January, 1869, the TARGUM, official newspaper of the University, aims to present to the student body 'an interesting and varied paper including complete coverage of the news of the campus and a cross-section of reader and editorial opinion. The idea of a student paper first arose in 1867, and when the Hrst pub- lication appeared, it was unanimously decided to call it The Targum, from the Hebrew. Appearing at intervals during the year, the publica- tion had five columns of literary matter. Until 1869, The Targum ap- peared each year in a special annual issue, thus being the forerunner of the present Scarlet Letter. Since the first monthly edition on january 29, Above: Professor Silvers, Dilatush, Moss, Palmer, joffe, Mr. Brill, Dean Metzger. 1869, the newspaper has never been discontinued. In 1880, The Targum was published as a tri-weeklyg in 1888, it became a bi-monthly. For a short time, it appeared as a Weekly and in 192 6, it took its present form as a semi-weekly. The paper appeared throughout the past year under the direction of J. Harry joffe, editor-in-chief and W, Kenneth Moss, business manager. One of the highlights of the year was the issue of the celebrated Mugrat edition. SENIOR STAFF Editor-in-Chief: j. Harry joffe Copy Editor: Richard K. Van Nostrand Business Manager: XV.

Zag xxx ,' '61 SPORTS FOOTBALL The accomplishments of the Scarlet football forces provided the most spectacular element of the year's sports program. Under the tutelage of Harvey Harman and his staff, the Varsity ran its string of victories to fourteen for the two-year period, with but one tie and two losses. Coach Tom Kenneally's lightweights enjoyed an undefeated season, albeit bur- dened somewhat by three ties which relegated them to second place in the league standings. The freshman team showed great promise by winning three games and losing but one. Genial Harvey Harman is the embodiment of Rutgers' football renais- sance. Since his arrival at Rutgers from the University of Pennsylvania he has caused the bells of Old Queens to ring in fact as well as in song. I ee - No small amount of credit goes A to Frank Long, line coach, and Eddie Masavage, backfield tutor, both of whom came from Penn- sylvania with Coach Harman. At Rutgers Al Sabo was recruited to coach the ends and has done an admirable job. It was appropriate that the foot- ball revival should coincide with the opening of the University's magnificent athletic plant on the River Road campus. After two 1-L Q years of battling, the Scarlet's stadium record is still unsullied. Only two teams have taken their measure during the period, N. Y. U. in 1938, and Brown in 1939, a Hue record and one that will be long remembered. RUTGERS OPPONENT LETTER WVINNERS I3 ....... Wesleyan ....... 7 Cggglg: izesriifa Cggsfgo zo ........

Y iwiwi nhl ,Jw M i X ii ii i i V W ii :F 'V H . l Aka A P. 1 ' l E Fashioned by the gifted technique of Harvey Harman for the second year, the Rutgers football fortunes experienced a repetition of the coach's hrst-year successes, as the Scarlet was piloted to another record marred by but a single defeat. Highlight of the 1939 season was the extension of the defeat-free streak, inaugurated by the Hne team of the preceding season, to thirteen games. The skein, which started to unwind with the fourth game of 1938 and which carried to defeat Springfield, Hampden-Sydney, Le- high, Princeton, and Lafayette, was auspiciously defended until the last quarter of the closing game of 1939. A powerful Brown University eleven, held off desperately for three periods, surged through the Scarlet defense in the closing minutes for the two touchdowns which broke the string. One tie sullied the Queensmen's record. It was suffered at the hands of the University of Richmond after lN'csleyan and YVooster had been vanquished in the opening contests. Seven of the schedule's nine engagements were filled on the turf of the new stadium, and while the Richmond tie dimmed the luster of the achievement, the home undefeated record was maintained. .X X X XV ' W W l 5 if V -N. lx C H 'ff 'fb fad 5 4, . ,wi X, '-T., 1 V 1 rsijlil ' - , 'm A ' ' ,-.NLQCL ,11.,11m'1Q.,,jgpf vpgfjffeigi, YV M - g za ax , ',w'm,,' 553. it A fin-' I P ., The fr- ,Jn I. el., V 4 1' 'V -, L ., , , yg YV hat was probably a very short era in Rutgers grid history closed with the ending of thc 1939 season. It featured the last playing days of Gottlieb, Tranavitch, Hotchkiss, Cooke and Craig, the nucleus of the eleven which a year and a half ago baptized the stadium with the first win over Princeton in almost 70 years, and which was the first local club to bear the stamp of Harman Coaching. Of importance to future grid fans is the supply of undergraduate talent left to the football faculty for fashioning into the next Scarlet eleven. Adept angling of punts by Ray Foster, the fine Wing work of jim VVallace, rugged play at guard by a host of sophomores and juniors, able subbing for Tranavitch by Henry DeRensis, in a manner which almost equals the mighty Train-all these, combined with the sensational development of Schmidt and Utz, point toward another outstanding campaign. RUTGERS, 13, WESLEYAN, 7: VV ith both teams sluggish in their execu- tion and physically worn by the midsummer-like heat which brought a shirt-sleeved crowd of 15,000 homecoming alumni out to see the game, Rutgers inauspiciously opened its season. A fumble which was recovered for a touchdown put VVesleyan in the lead early in the con- it 'J -,.AV- 'E-1653 '- L 1 Kg if X N 'Iii or e P tj test. As the game progressed, though, the fact became more evident that the manpower of the home team would be the deciding factor. This proved to be the case as a blocked kick was converted into the Hrst local score. Then, in the last quarter, Gottlieb passed to joe Varju for the touchdown which started the season with a Rutgers victory. RUTGERS, zo, WOOS1'ER, o: In its second engagement Rutgers over- powered a small eleven from Wcioster College of Ohio. The VVesterners were no match for the heavier, skillful, Harman men. They were soon exhausted by a never-ending string of scarlet-shirted reserves and by the oppressive heat which took all the football tang out of the weather. DeRensis scored on a pass from Gottlieb, while a blocked kick resulted in the other score. Second teamers effected the third touchdown. RUTGERS, 6, RICHMOND, 6: With a pair of high-stepping, sharp-passing backs and a stepladder end as its offensive guns, the University of Rich- mond invaded New Brunswick. Only Foster's corner kicking prevented the aggressive Southerners from scoring early in the game. The Spiders exhibited some wide open football and provided one of the best shows of the season. Rutgers launched a drive that crossed the goal line with two minutes left to play. Steve Capestro missed his first conversion V l .A XX , I.

Richmond came back swinging, and in Q0 seconds of dizzy passing tied the score. Their point try was unsuccessful as the game ended. RUTGERS, 25: MARYLAND, 12: In the IHOSt interesting game, as far as the spectator was concerned, Maryland was outscored by a decisive margin. As had their fellow Southerners of the previous week, the Terra- pins opened their book of hocus-pocus and had numbers of their hosts chasing ghosts the greater part of the afternoon. Power once more told the tale, and Rutgers pounded out the winning decision to repulse a plucky Southern team. RUTGERS, zo, LEHIGH, 6: One of the weakest teams on the schedule was the Middle Three rival, Lehigh. Quick scores were thrust over the goal line twice in the opening session. Utz' bruising drives into the under- manned Engineer line and a deadly overhead attack leveled by Gottlieb were the chief forces in gaining the first victory in the title race. RUTGERS, 32, NEW HAMPSHIRE, 13: New I-Iampshire's VVildcats were easily tamed by Harman's well-drilled machine. This time it was all Gottlieb. He carried the ball over twice and passed for the other three rallies. Tranavitch caught two scoring tosses, Foster the third. RUTGERS, 13, LAFAYETTE, 7: Leaving their home Held for the Hrst time during the season, the Scarlet invaded Easton to successfully defend its Middle Three championship against the Lafayette Leopards. The Pennsylvanians, although not boasting a winning record, were reported to be a dangerous threat to the Big Red. They were not quite the power- house depicted. Four minutes had ticked off when the first Rutgers touchdown was recorded. A sustained march produced the six points. A second period drive, in which the Eastoners shot their bolt, was successful, and the conversion enabled the home team to end the half with a one-point ad- vantage. Everything was on the side of the defending champions in the second half, however, and the locals pushed the Leopards up and down the Held. Tranavitch scored the winning touchdown on a twenty-yard jaunt from scrimmage. RUTGERS, 17, SPRINGFIELD, 7: Making its animal appearance in New Brunswick, Springfield College bowed to the home team and to the stadium jinx on visiting teams. Despite the fact that the gymnasts from New England were romped over for thirteen first downs in the first half, the Indians fought off every touchdown bid and held the Big Red r U 'i H ,i , I - ,j .

Ten minutes after resumption of play after the intermission, Rutgers had a I7 point lead. The Spring- field score was engineered against the third line of home defense. RUTGERS, og BROWN, 13: With student hopes built to crazy heights by the desire for an undefeated season, the first in Rutgers history, Harman took his squad to Providence to meet Brown in the final game. The story of the game is already legend. The desperate efforts of the Scarlet foot- ballers to achieve what none of their predecessors had are well known. Brown, defeated by all its major opponents and tied by Yale, carried too many guns for its jersey guests. For three periods, before Tranavitch was felled by a knee injury, the Bruins were fought to a standstill. With his departure the Rutgers defense crumpled. Brown scored quickly on a determined push. An intercepted pass late in the period ended all hopes for a Scarlet success. The loss was chalked up as the second one in seventeen games for the Harman-coached teams at Rutgers. Fourteen victories were added to his impressive coaching record by his 1940 Scarlet eleven. 150-POUND FOOTBALL Rutgers ISO-P0l.11ld football team missed by the narrowest of margins the capturing of the league title and retiring of the Foster Sanford Trophy when the league champions, Princeton, battled with the Scarlet to a scoreless deadlock on Thanksgiving Day, November 23. For three and a half periods Coach Thomas Kenneally's charges out- played their opponents, only to see a 70-yard march stopped one inch short of a touchdown late in the fourth quarter.

The Scarlet was un- defeated, winning three and tying three games. The team opened its season in an auspicious manner by defeating Pennsylvania, 14-6, in the stadium. Lyman Avery's two first-period scores were the margin of victory. The following week Lafayettels lightweights held Rutgers to a score- less tie on a rain-soaked field. A journey to Yale provided another vic- tory, 19-7. A 95-yard runback of an intercepted pass which resulted in a touchdown by Stewart Hurlburt turned the tide Rutgers' way. A 1 z-o triumph over Villanova and a o-o stalemate with Cornell were the results of the lightweights' other efforts before they concluded the season against Princeton. Lightweight All-Arnericans from Rutgers were William Freeman, left end, and Lyman Avery, right halfback, on the first team. Donald Shall- cross, center, and Andrew Graham, right guard, were second team y selections. RUTGERS OPPONENT I4 ...... Pennsylvania ...... 6 o ........ Lafayette ...o IQ .......... Yale I2 ........

Such powerful opposition as Princeton, Stan- ford, N.Y.U., Fordham, Penn State, Brown, and Maryland was too much for the weak Rutgers squad which lacked height, number, and finesse. Their final record showed only Hve wins against fourteen losses. Al- though prospects for Coach Hill's outfit were dull from the start, the team, built around regular Frank Brock and six reserves from last year's squad, got off to a good beginning with an easy victory over University College. They then dropped two close-score thrill- ers to Princeton and Montclair but from then on, despite several close games, the Rutgers five could only manage to defeat four of the remaining 16 teams.

Reilly completed his twenty-fifth year as mentor for the Rutgers SWIININIING team in his usual successful style. Five victories stacked against three losses once more weighed the scale in a favorable balance for the genial coach. Columbia was the Hrst victor over the Scarlet as the latter opened its season by dropping a 41-34 meet in the last event, the 400 yard relay. Rutgers had six firsts to Columbia's three until this last event gave the Lions the margin. Orm McClave took Hrst place in the dive with II4 points in this meet. The following week a strong Brown team traveled to New Brunswick and duplicated the Columbia victory and score. On Saturday, February 3, Coach Reilly's team traveled to Princeton rated as underdogs because of the comparison of three Princeton victories to their own two defeats. The Tigers, Eastern Inter- collegiate Champions, trounced the Scar- let by a 59-16 score. McClave and Bud MacNelly were impressive at Princeton. -li. Virginia was the Hrst victim of the Rutgers swimmers, 45-30. Lehigh followed the Southerners one night later. Seven firsts to the Brown and White's two helped make up the 54-21 score. McClave and MacNelly continued their winning ways in the dive, while Captain jim Barnes, Bill Kirk, Len Zubco and Mort Estrin performed well. New York Universityis swimmers fell victim to the Scarlet as Coach Reillyis team made it three victories in a row to balance the three losses. McClave again Won the dive. Final score was 52-2 3. The team turned in a sparkling 46-29 victory over Penn State on Sat- urday, February 24, which was Reilly Day. Alumni and undergraduates gathered to honor the Coach's twenty-fifth anniversary. Robert Eck- house, sports editor of The Targum, arranged the event which brought former Rutgers swimming greats back to the Banks. At intervals during the afternoon Coach Reilly was presented with gifts on behalf of the swimming team and the alumni. A 46-29 victory over the University of Pennsylvania finished the sea- son for the Scarlet natators. Outstanding for the team during the season were Captain jim Barnes, Bill Kirk, Orin McClave, who was undefeated in dual diving competition, and Mort Estrin.

BOXING Though the BOXING team lost all three of its matches, Coach Bud Gor- man's mittmen made a creditable showing in each. Captain Joe Colonna and Bill Gager were the only veterans and the rest of the team was made up of promising but inexperienced men. Bucknell took the measure of the Scarlet 6-2 in the first match While the Coast Guard Academy emerged victorious 5-3 in a close match at New London. In the only home meet of the season, Rutgers dropped a 5-3 decision to the Yale Uni- versity boxers before a large crowd. Highlight of the season was the un- defeated, untied record made by diminutive joe Colonna Who, in three years, has piled up eleven victories to remain undefeated in intercollegiate boxing. Bill Gager and Jim Gutzwiller were also outstanding, winning two of their three bouts. Captain Colonna will be the only letter winner lost to next year's team.

CROSS-COUNTRY Coach Bernard YVefers' Scarlet hill-and-dalers made a fair showing in their 1940 season by winning two of their five dual competition meets although they finished last in the I.C. 4-A. meet at New York with Sid Schwartz in 80th place, the first Scarlet man over the line. Opening the season under the tutoring of Professor Donald lVlcGinn of the English Department the cnoss-COUNTRY team dropped a close meet to Princeton. The following Saturday a strong Lafayette squad humbled the Scarlet on the five mile Buccleuch Park course. It was the first time a Leopard squad had ever defeated the runners from the Banks. Heartened by the return of the ailing Coach Wefers, the Queensmen won a hotly contested Lehigh meet, zo to 3 5. The Held was led home by Lehigh's john Elmer followed closely by Sid Schwartz, Harry Watsoii, Reece Haines, Dick McDade, Harry Halstead, Bob Mirsky and Randy Cramer. Montclair State Teachers was the next Scarlet victim, but the N.Y.U. harriers humbled the Scarlet at Van Cortlandt Park in the final dual meet of the season.

Thus the third year of crew at Rutgers under Coach Chuck Logg became the most important and by far the most impressive as the Scarlet triumphed in the reorganized Dad Vail Regatta over Manhattan, Dartmouth, Bos- ton College, Marietta, Rollins and American International.

The increasing interest shown in this ancient Indian sport, the oldest game on the American continent, warranted one of the finest schedules the University stick- handlers have ever undertaken. Coach Fred Fitch's charges, opening their 1939 season with five veterans, swamped a strong alumni team 9 to 2 and made it two straight with a I4 to 3 win over Lehigh. Although the stickwielders suffered losses at the hands of Army, Maryland, St. john's and Princeton, they were able to add Yale and C.C.N.Y. to their victory column.

The fencers won the Middle Three championship and beat Princeton for the first time in fencing history at Rutgers. Drew, Lafayette, Lehigh and Haver- ford were Scarlet victims as well as Princeton.

TENNIS Although the record of the SCARLET TENNIS team shows four wins and an equal number of losses, the Myersmen may well look back upon their season's play with a considerable measure of satisfaction. Besides holding a favored Duke team to a five to four decision, the Scarlet courtmen reg- istered upsets in defeating Rhode Island State College 6 to 3 and New York University by the same margin. Rhode Island sported an eight match winning streak before meeting Rutgers, while the victory over N. Y. U. was the first since the series began in 1930. Captain Boris Schwartz was seeded number one, Charles Pine, two, john Hummel, three, George Ritter, four, and Norman Gel- ler, five.

The Scarlet dropped four straight matches, one at home and three away, before hitting the Winning column. It was, however, rather a startling upset when, after a defeat of six to nothing in the first match, Rutgers returned to defeat West Chester Teachers by a 5 to 2 count in a return engage- ment.

SONGLEADERS-CHEERLEADERS Main feature of thc CHEERING system this year was the elaboration of the system of card cheering which was introduced last year. Head cheer- leader Don Davison and senior cheerleader Charlie Leone worked out intricate designs for visiting spectators to see. Junior cheerleaders were Bob Bunncll, joe Ryan, Bill Barnaby and Doug Bushnell. SONGLEADERS who cooperated with the cheerleaders at football games were senior Ed Taylor and juniors Harlow Meckes and Gordon Behn. These boys did a fine job in upholding the Rutgers tradition of being a singing collegef' Above: Bohn, Taylor,,Meckes. Below: Bushnell, Davidson, Leone, Barnaby. INTRAMURALS Regarded as one of the most active INTRAIVIURAL sports programs ever undertaken by the University athletic department, the 1938-39 contests featured ten sporting events. More than thirty-five living groups en- gaged in the annual competition for the coveted Keller Trophy, sym- bolic of intramural championship, 1596 undergraduates participated in the program directed by Harry Rockafeller. Wiiiiier of the Keller trophy for the past year Was Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity with a total of 63 points, runner-up Delta Upsilon had 46 points. The Dekes Wound up the season as cham- pions in touch football, swimming, and league champions in softball. Their vic- tory marks the second in three years for them. Raritan Club nosed the Dekes out of the championship by a point and a half. Cross-country opened the intramural program last year. Robert Dickson '40 ran the mile and a half course in 8:4o.o to win for Hertzog Hall, Ronald Jarvis, Jr. '42 was second for the Raritan Club, and James Claypoole 741, Lambda Chi Alpha, was third. Hertzog Hall was awarded 1 3 points for Winning the cross-country. Nine living groups entered 75 men in the event. Phi Epsilon Pi fraternity took all three places in the intramural tennis matches. Boris Schwarz '39, Charles Pine '41, and Melvin Alprcn '40 took first, second and third places, respectively. Sixteen living groups entered 85 men in this event. Touch football brought twenty teams in five leagues into action and 215 individuals played ball. League Winners were Phi Gamma Delta, Zeta Psi, Delta Upsilon, Pi Kappa Alpha, and champions were Delta Kappa Epsilon. The Dekes gained 18 points toward the trophy by de- feating the Pi Kappa Alpha team in the finals. Seven leagues comprising 32 basketball teams, with 256 intramural players, made up the class A competition in the program. League winners were Wiiiaiits Hall, the Whirlvvinds, Alpha Kappa Pi, Delta Upsilon, the Orioles, Zeta Psi and Kappa Sigma. Paced by their star sophomore, Vincent Utz, the Kappa Sigma players defeated Zeta Psi in the Hnals. Kappa Sigma also won- the class B basketball competition. Twenty teams in five leagues made up the competition. Intramural swimming championships went to the Dekes, giving them another 21 points toward the trophy. Delta Upsilon was runner-up out of the twenty teams competing. Kappa Sigma was established as intramural softball champion after defeating leaders of six other leagues, Beta Theta Pi reached the finals with the victors. Pi Kappa Alpha, Hertzog Hall and Hegeman Hall won first, second and third places respectively in intramural CIOSS-COUIIUY when the 1939-4o season got under Way. Lambda Chi Alpha Won the touch football championships. Charles H. Ficken '40 was manager of intramurals. Assistant managers were Arthur VV. Ritchings and Charles Sullivan, both 740. INTERCOLLEGE SPORTS Another of George E. Little's innovations into the athletic system, In- tercollege Football, enjoyed a most successful initial season. The Arts' team, coached by Tom Conbiths '41, went through its schedule with five victories and a tie to capture the championship, With four victories, one defeat and one tie the Ag team finished in the runner-up position ahead of the Engineering and Science clubs. Each team DICE the rest of the league in two games. The highlight of the season was a 6-o victory eked out by the 'Arts' team over the Ags to clinch the sea- son's title. C ' , Several of the players distinguished themselves by their excellent play and are being seriously considered as possible varsity material. Harry Rockafeller, Arts' fullback and triple threat man, Joe Horvath of the Science team, and Chuck Benash of the Ags were outstanding backfield performers. On the line Frank Martocci, Bill Schmitt and VVinnie Gowen of the Arts' squad, Joe Norusis and George johannessen of the Ags, Stock Bacchus, Science, and Carl Schmidt, Engineers, were effective. Another innovation into the intercollege sports curricula was the recep- tion of intercollege baseball. This league, in its infancy at the time of publication, is to work in much the same Way as intercollege football. Coaches will tutor uniformed teams and there will be playoifs for a trophy or prize. Here, too, George Little scored Hgillll. Ar.r.-INTER-cox.1,EGE TEANI L.E. Gutzwiller, Engineers L.T. Bacchus, Science L.G. F. Martocci, Arts C. Norusis, Arts R.G.

Travel- ing to Flemington to play the High School in their opener late in Gcto- ber they dropped a close 8-7 game. New Brunswick High School's Junior Varsity won 7-o in the second game of the freshman lightweights. The next two games were not so close, as New jersey Reformatory and Newark Academy won 20-7 and 32-o, respectively, over the Little Red. The bright spot of the season was that Coach Vaughn S. Caryis charges showed individual talent and promise for next year's varsity team. Carlton Jones, William Horney, Richard Colfax are only a few of the players who should make Coach Kenneally's lot easier next fall. NUMERAL XVINNERS RUTG1-:Rs OPPONENT Ellis T. Bolton Robert E.

LACROSSE Although the 1939 freshman lacrosse team was greatly handicapped by lack of material, Coach Tom Kenneally whipped it into shape and pulled it through a stiff four-game schedule with a good average. The Swarthmore Junior Varsity and Lafayette freshmen fell before Rutgers' onslaught in the opening two games. It was Brooklyn Poly Prep and Peekskill Military Academy in the next two contests which proved to be stumbling blocks as the Scarlet lost by two points to each.

BASEBALL Rolling up an imposing record of six victories and only one defeat, Coach Art Matsu's 1939 freshman baseball team will go down in Rutgers history as one of the Scarlet's most outstanding first year dia- mond squads. Particularly outstanding among the in- dividual performers were two pitchers, jim Perkins and Ossie Day. Perkins pitched victories over Plainfield High School, Lafayette, VVoodbridge High School and Perth Amboy High School. His best performance came in the last contest when he allowed the Perth Amboy team but three scattered hits.

Under Coach Chuck Logg it proved itself to be one of the best first year aggre- gations to ever take to the Raritan for the Scarlet. Although the season's record shows only one victory and two seconds, the year was deemed a success after the Charles P. Logg Trophy Regatta on the Shrewsbury River in Red Bank.

At the monthly meetings, topics of interest to agriculture students are discussed and pic- tures are shown. Membership is open to any student in the College of Agriculture. A freshman reception is held once each year to introduce the incoming students to the upperclassmen. The club also sponsors an Agricultural Field Day at which is displayed a complete array of agricultural exhibits. Each department has an exhibit dealing with its own line of work. The theme of this year's Field Day centered about modern, up-to-date tech- niques and methods in agriculture. The oHicers are: president, Edwin H. Schirmer '4o5 vice-president, Williain Kuske '4rg secretary, Ernest G. Christ ,405 treasurer, William I. Archibald '41. DAIRY SCIENCE The DAIRY SCIENCE CLUB, now in its fourth year, concerns itself mainly with discussion of planning for the Agricultural Field Day. Planning and carrying out of these plans are the chief work of the club. Also, a large group of successful dairymen comprise the list of speakers who appear at the monthly meetings. Moving pictures are also a feature of the meetings. The Dairy Science Club also sponsors socials. Chief event of the social program is the annual bean feed which is put on by club members with the aid of the faculty for anyone who wishes to attend. After the meetings are adjourned the club also has socials and serves refreshments. Officers of the Dairy Science Club this year were Stephen Gordeuk, jr. '4o, president, Carleton C. Dilatush '40, vice-president, Williani Kuske '41, secretary, Solomon Margolin '41, treasurer, and Charles E. Wliitmore '41, publicity agent.

Third row: Geller, Lord, Rutan, Brown, Borden, Barnwell, Lerner. HORTUS CLUB The Rutgers HoRTUs CLUB was organized in 1931. Since that time, the interests and activities of the club have increased steadily. The pur- pose of this club is for mutual entertainment and for the fostering of the improvement of its members in horticultural art, in science, and in vital interests of the day. The membership of the club includes the groups majoring in Vegetable Production, Floriculture, Landscape Gardening, and Pomology. The oflicers are: Robert M. Jackson '40, president, Albert B. Flemer '40, vice-president, Williain Godfrey '40, secretary, George A. Cas- parian '40, treasurer, and Ray F. Danielson '40, historian.

Third rofw: Kaenzig, Schmidt, Krenicky, Everett, Edgar, Dinnen. POULTRY-SCIENCE CLUB In the year 1938-1939, the several agricultural students majoring in poultry organized the POULTRY-sc1ENc1z CLUB in order to promote the profession of Poultry Husbandry, and to establish, foster, and develop character, leadership, and the spirit of fellowship among those aspiring to this- profession. The club holds meetings Whenever prominent speakers or interesting visual material can be procured. At the annual Agricultural Club Field Day held during the spring, they sponsored a program of bantam and baby-chick exhibits, which received state-wide acclaim, various colored yolk displays, and ran several contests pertaining to poultry. This group also acts in cooperation with the other agricultural societies of the cam- pus, as host for the Eastern Intercollegiate Judging Contest. The ofiicers are: David C. Tudor '40, president, and Daniel G. Fen- ton '40, secretary. Below-First row: Prof. Jeffrey, Dockerty, Fenton, Prof. Thompson, Tudor, Wlooclward, XVellsel, Litterwitch. Second row: Brown, Britt, Trimmel, Horowitz, Francis, Gordeuk, Benash, Yusholc, De Vinny. A. S. C. E. THE AINIERICAN SOCIETY OF CIVIL ENGINEERS, since its inception in 1852, has been of great assistance to its members. It is the oldest national engineering society in the country, and its many contributions to human progress attest to its high standards. The purpose of the organization, that of serving as an introduction to professional fields by offering students opportunities to become acquainted with engineering projects under construction, and to discuss these projects and methods of building them has succeeded in giving the student en- gineers valuable information. Membership in this society is open to those students of Civil Engineer- ing Who have shown special skill in their Work. Willianl P. Comstock, jr. '40, president, and Daniel A. DeSessa, Sp., secretary-treasurer, have done much to keep up the high standard of the Rutgers chapter. The society is under the faculty guidance of Professor Harry N. Lendall, with Mr. P. S. Wilsoii as Consulting Engineer. First row: Schott, DeSessa, Comstock, Raciti, Palma. Second row: Alleva, Aaroe, Peters, Allcot, DelMastro. A. S. M. E. The Rutgers student branch of the AMERICAN SOCIETY OF MECHANI- CAL ENGINEERS was organized more than twenty years ago. The purpose of the society is to spread to its members knowledge of the practical aspects and problems of Mechanical Engineering. The students are constantly kept in touch with nearby professional branches of the Society and with outstanding engineers in the field. ln this Way they are brought into contact with all the latest developments in the engineering world and learn of various projects carried on by students in other schools and universities. The requirements for membership in the organization consist of maintaining a high scholastic standing together with an interest in everyday engineering problems. The odicers who have so successfully carried out the Society's pro- gram are: president, Richard L. Larrabure '4o5 vice-president, James E. Gutzwiller '4Ig treasurer, Kenneth C. Mehrhof ,405 and secretary, Abraham M. Lipsky 341. First row: Schnitzius, Erdman, Hall, Larrabure, Baicr, Grygotis, XValker. Second row: Lipsky, Dunbar, Seibcrt, Adams, Javornicky, Bedell. ln A. I. E. E. THE ARVIERICAN INSTITUTE or ELECTRICAL ENGINEERS was founded in 1884, when the idea of trained electrical engineers was almost as young as the bicycle built for two, and the nation was being weaned away slowly from the last stages of the gas-light era to the idea of elec- tricity for lighting. The Institute has contributed greatly to the progress that has taken place in the field of electricity since that colorful period. The objects of the Institute include the further advancement of the theory and practice of electrical engineering, and the cultivation of many of those qualities needed by the engineer which are not afforded in the class room or the laboratory. The Institute also strives for the mainte- nance of a high professional standard. The Rutgers chapter has done much to uphold these aims, and during the past year the program was under the direction of I-Iarry L. Emmons, jr. '40, president, Burton R. Lester '41, vice-president, Bergon Wilson '41, secretary, Williaiii I-I. Townend '40, treasurer, and Professor Fred H. Pumphrey, faculty supervisor. First row: Cox, Kirkpatrick, Emmons, Townend, Lester. Second row: Madsen, Sacco, Terry, Hammell, Moran, Shakell, Evans. , ,-1 CERAMICS Organized in 192 1, this club had its inception as a medium for indus- trial discussion and social activity among the handful of student ceramists who first conceived of the organization. So rapidly did the group pro- gress that in 1923 it was admitted as a chartered student branch by the AMERICAN CERANIIC Socnsrv. In the ensuing development, initiation rituals of ceramic significance were adopted. Numerous social evenings and party gatherings are held. Evolutions in the ceramics industry are traced apace with their appear- ance at the stated monthly meetings. VVorking authorities address the club on a diversified selection of topics, bearing relation to problems of the ceramic craft. The ofiicers are: Robert Brooks '40, president, Robert Owen '41, vice-president, George Pearce ,4Z, secretary, Gilbert Goodman '41, cor- responding secretary, Clarence Hill '4o, treasurer, Professor George H. Brown and Professor John R. Kauffman, faculty advisers. First rofw: Ingouf, Brown, Stravros, Wenczel, Scammell, Smalley, Patrick, Schweiker, Sigler, Ratti, Cumming.

Fourth row: Perkins, I-Ioffner, Reynolds, Buttle, Bollinger, Peskin, Professor Morgan, Mr. Greene. ROWIN G The RUTGERS ROWING CLUB was organized in 193 5 by a group of men concerned with fostering rowing as a sport at Rutgers. It is composed of men who have dehnitely evidenced an active interest in row- ing, and the organization has attempted to awaken a like interest among the student body. Membership to the club is elective, and all undergradu- ates or alumni who have actively demonstrated their interest in crew, in addition to those men actually participating in the sport at Rutgers, are eligible for membership. Perhaps the most notable of the alumni is Mr. Leverett Brett, who is a typical exponent of the alumni cooperation and devotion to a sport he loves. Led by Albert B. Flemer, commodore, Howard L. Woodward, vice-commodore, Richard Mansfield, purser and Francis Whitby, Log Keeper, the Rutgers Rowing Club has done much to establish crew as a Rutgers sport. First row: Lipsky, Schwanhausser, Whitby, Woodward, Flemer, Ashby, Mansfield, Tasker. Second row: Fort, Treadwell, Perrine, Daum, Moncrief, Christensen, Keeler, Mason, Azulay, Dorsch, Mason. 1,1- iff! Sl is , 1 ?b .,.,!, .W ... viii 5 Q' 11 U. , .., 5212 .fy . .

It is intended to give the biological and premedical students an opportunity to supplement their curricular Work with information not available in the classroom. Lec- turers included members of the faculty and medical profession. In many cases the members themselves spoke on subjects involving their own specific interests and activities. This phase of the club's work is deemed of great value to the lowerclassmen, giving them an insight into their later fields of work. Field trips to interesting localities and institutions were made regularly throughout the year. The club is designed primarily as a student organization with under- graduate activity the dominant feature of the meetings. The officers for 1939-40 were: James B. Blish '42, president, Robert Edelberg 742, secretary, Dominic A. Mauriello '42, treasurer, and Dr. Samuel L. Leonard, facility advisor.

Thus, the Club serves to stimulate interest in politics and World affairs, and to provide an opportunity for the dis- cussion of civic questions. The membership is composed of students seri- ously interested in these matters, as evidenced by the Club's program of activities. Among the successful activities which the Liberal Club helped to sponsor were the Rutgers-N.j.C. German Student Refugee Campaign and the Peace Day Aiiti-War Demonstration. At a time when the world is engulfed in War, the main emphasis in this country is naturally on anti-War activity. Wliile stressing this movement, the Club is not unmindful of the domestic problems of unemployment and dwindling economic opportunity. A In an attempt to present issues clearly before the student body, mem- bers of the faculty and outside authorities are invited to participate in a program of lectures and panel-discussions, after which questions are an- swered by the lecturer. The ofhcers are: Alexander Ganz 21.0, president, and Marvin Meyers 742 , secretary-treasurer. First rofw: Friedman, Lacey, Ganz, Brown, Martin. Second row: Marucci, Bilancio, Gies, Meyers, Scarr. . THE TOWERS The impetus for the cooperative movement at Rutgers was initiated by the interest and consideration of Professor Frank G. Helyar. He had long realized that group living was a practical means of aiding needy students who wished to attend college. As a result of his efforts, parts of the buildings on the Agricultural campus were given over to student living quarters. It was in this way that THE TONVERS was established. Economical living at THE TOWERS is based on complete student operation and cooperation in carrying out the household duties of the group. During the first three years the cost of two meals per day was less than 32.7 5 per Week. At no time did the weekly cost exceed 33.00. Instead of paying cash for their rooms, the men work a stipulated amount of time for the college of Agriculture, thus carrying further the policy of substituting service for money. The cooperative houses take an active part in campus life. They stand high scholastically, encourage extra-curricular activity and stimulate social development. Through cooperation, all benefit.
