MASSACHUSETTS OFFICE OF THE DEAN TO THE CLASS OF 1938 With deep appreciation for the generous spirit which prompts this dedication, it is olearly recognized that such signal honor is bestowed not for personal reasons, but because some of the ideals and purposes for which this College was founded and is now maintained have been mutual- ly realized in our living, friendly relationships on the oampus • In sharing these endeavors the class of 1938 has opened the way toward a better understanding of the real meaning of college life when faculty and students cooperate in a common worthy purpose. The College is sincerely grateful for the splendid contribution which this class is making and recognizes that not only in this Annual, but also in the complete academic achievement and service record of the class, the College will have continued reason for rejoicing throughout the years to come. May this MASSASOIT be the token of true friendship from the Class to the College and to all conoerned. Cordially and sinoerely yours ALBERT Z. MANN We are happy to address this annual to DEAN ALBERT Z. MANN for his admirable leadership at a critical time, for his ideal manliness to which we all aspire, and for his genuine friend- ship which we all enjoy . . . D E D I C A T I O N FOREWORD T HE year just concluded has been historic for the old Alma Mater. She has been forced to face change and challenge such as have not been her lot since the early days of her career. We have seen the end of a period of uncertainty and reconstruction. We have inaugurated a new president, and now under Dr. Best ' s leadership we hope to continue firmly along the course that the college visionaries have charted for us. It is the earnest hope of the class of ' 38 that all will work toward a greater and more in- fluencial Springfield. As students we have endeavored to keep in step with the administration in sensing the change of the times. We have reorganized and re- interpreted our student government and its functions. We are confident that the change is a progressive movement. Progress is the note which we would sound, as we present to you the MASSASOIT of the class of ' 38 with the definite objective of interpreting to you Springfield as it is at home, and Springfield as it is in the whole wide world about us.

Thus completes the class of ' 37 its memorable college days. Memorable for the sincere friendships, social and educational experiences which have been offered to every member of the class, all partaking of these numerous opportunities to their fullest extent. From advanced adolescence to early manhood, time has carried us through the most valuable phase of life. As freshmen we came in the usual way; green, awed, wondering, questioning, but all filled with expectations of the offerings of college life. Through initiations we learned of each other; our successful class scraps bound us closer together and Freshman Camp termi- nated the year of expectancy with further expectancy . Now we were worldly wise, the Sophomores. Greetings to our inferiors on an equal basis, but still our supremacy is known through our vigorous and victorious class scrapes. New blood on the varsity teams blended us as equals to our illustrious upperclassmen, both in everlasting friendship and the love of competition. International — six of our outstanding classmates off for study abroad. Spring air; expectancy again, we have reached the half-way mark. Junior year arrives, upperclassmen at last we feel elated. Dominant leadership is beginning to be shown by the members of the class in campus activities. Could a year pass so rapidly to our final expectancy of closing our college days as renowned Seniors? The time is here; from the frolicking Frosh to the serious Senior. What grave responsibilities we have to carry on, traditions and ideals to fulfill the name of a Springfield man. Our expectations have been fulfilled to the ut- most in the acquisition of friendships, experiences, attitudes, skills, and facts, always with an equal balance of the mental and physical. Still we see expectancy as our goal for the life we shall live in the future, and we feel that this is only attainable through living as Springfield has taught us. In such manner, fond farewell and success to all in the class of 1937. f 24] The Senior Class 1937 [2Sl WESLEY LYELL ADAMS Worcester, Mass.

Junior Legend The last great step in the forming of the basic foundation on which we expect to mold our careers is about to begin. Three enjoyable years have we spent, not only in association with our scholastic endeavors, but years ripe with fellowship. Many of us are looking forward to the time when we will be associated with each other in the respective fields which we are hoping to enter. Many of our class have fallen along the road, are not fortunate enough to join in this final journey toward our immediate goal. We who have stepped over the difficult pathways however should not be content looking just as far as gradu- ation, but should look toward the greater future in which our present resources will serve as the nucleus for what we will make of ourselves. During this last year of our assemblage here on campus, many of us will head the affairs of the student-body in some capacity of leadership. In both academic undertakings and athletic achievements our class has accomplished and maintained a high level in the history of the college. We have had a chance to observe and take part in the change in administration and on be- coming Seniors our duty will be to encourage and aid in the tremendous task which confronts the Springfield of today. It will also be our duty to lend a helping hand to the incoming freshmen and do all we can in helping the under- classmen who are looking up to us as advisers. The outstanding accomplishments include the Junior Prom and the pub- lishing of the Massasoit. These and others characterize our class as complet- ing anything started.

[ 55 ] Sophomore Legend Unsophisticated as they may have been a year ago, the class of ' 39 has now set the pace for future Springfield men. The makings of college men which this class had at the beginning of their Freshman year have now been brought into being, and offer a challenge to all others who wish to attain their high scholastic standing and physical capabilities. The Sophomore class is outstanding for the fine records made by its mem- bers on the track and in the field. Not only have they done themselves proud in their physical achievements, but their social events have been most suc- cessful. How well we remember the Sophomore dance last fall — and then, ;he Sophomore Hop this spring — what more proof is necessary to prove the all-around ability of the Thirty-Niners? Doing unto others as they had done unto them, led the sophs to treating the frosh in the newly acquired manner when it came to initiations. Although the frosh proved the victors this year in all the soph-frosh events, and even managed to have their banquet on the Q.T., the friendly feeling of fellowship still prevails — and will continue to do so between these two classes. The friendships that were started two years ago have developed on to a higher plane — new friendships have been formed, and the tradition of friendli- ness at Springfield College continues to go on. Looking back upon the past, only so as to be able to benefit in the future, and facing the future with all the wisdom, self-confidence, and high ideals embodied into her by two-all-too-short years at this college, the Sophomore class steps up — up to a higher level of attainment, nearer the goal of happi- ness and success.

[ 59 ] Freshman Story On the 22nd of September, 1936, the class of 1940 came into existence when 190 odd Freshmen entered Springfield College. Those first hectic days passed swiftly, as we underwent the rigors of psychological and physical exams. Our trip to the Eastern States Exposition, faculty reception, visits to faculty homes, stunt night, and group trips to various parts of the city served to help us to get better acquainted and bind us together in a fine fellowship of class spirit. One of the highlights of those early days was the presentation of the catachism. After a ' ' trip ' ' about the city, we gathered on the banks of the Massasoit and watched Chief Massasoit come across the lake in his canoe with a great burning S on the other side for background. In our class rivalries we came out on top over the Sophs in two of three events. No doubt the most thrilling was the rope pull at the Northeastern game. As a result we held our class banquet first. The Freshman teams have made the best of their short schedules in winning a large share of their games. Next year should see a number of the class of 1940 playing on varsity teams. After a man leaves college there are always two or three outstanding happenings of his college life that he cherishes in his memory. Most of our members will consider the class banquet as one of these. Those were hectic days just before the banquet when rumors of a presidential kidnapping were flying around, but president Al appeared safe and serene at the festivities. Another big day was Freshman Day in February with the dance in the West Gym. Our numbers have diminished since last Fall, but the class ideals and spirit have been increased and cultivated to mold us into a single unit proud to be known as ihe class of 1940.

Binghampton, New York ORGANIZATIONS Senate The Senate is the legislative and judiciary branch of the Student Asso- ciation. It has charge of all social and disciplinary problems among students on campus. In previous years the Senate has acted as a body in making decisions on such affairs. This year President George Meyers organized the body into efficient committees which were responsible for the various duties of the group. Chairmen were selected, one for each committee, to minister the functioning of interclass competition, stepping up, parking, discipline exclu- sive of dormitories, and the house committee working with the counselors and Faculty House Committee in solving the problems encountered in dormitory life. Each chairman could call on members of the Senate, as many as necessary, to aid him in his commission. The committees acted independently of the body but brought any problem of great magnitude before the Senate for consultation. The Senate felt that this lode-distribution method of administration was a decided improvement over methods previously used and especially efficient and practicable to college life in which there are so many activities. [ 66 ] Cabinet The Cabinet is the supervisor of the supervisors, the manager of the managers. All student extra-curricular activities are directed by this body. Looking to the future, this year ' s Cabinet has reorganized administration of student activities into a more simplified, centralized, and effective form. A central council and boards have been formed, the Athletic Board and the Social Activities Board. These will have charge of all activities in their respective fields. Clubs have replaced committees in the localization of activities, these being under the guidance of the boards. The Senate and Cabinet have been abolished, their duties being administered by the central Council. Faculty advisers are attendant on the cou ncil boards to give their counsel in activities. The purpose of the new set-up seeks greater cooperation of students and faculty in student activities on campus. The Cabinet, under the leadership of A1 Scholz, should be commended for its keen and far-seeing observation and progressive action in making such a fundamental change for the betterment and benefit of all concerned. [ 67 ] Cosmopolitan Club Springfield College is unique in its contribution to international goodwill. It encourages students from all parts of the globe to accept the unusual offerings of the college in the field of physical and character education. Students who come to us from abroad bring new ideas and attitudes which help us to understand them, their people, and their countries, and they take back to their homelands a better understanding of America. The Cosmopolitan Club i s automatically composed of all students from abroad and all those who have studied abroad. Others of the student body become members, but not more than half of the total membership may be American. Twelve different nations have been represented in the current activities of the club. An innovation this year was a close association with the local branch of the International Y ' s Men ' s Movement which is an international organi- zation within the Y.M.C.A. The students from abroad have thus been able to observe the peculiarities of an exclusively American viewpoint, being inducted as honorary members in the local chapter and attending its meetings quite regularly. Many Cosmopolitan Club members spoke in places throughout New England representing the club in talks and discussions about their own countries and on international aspects of current affairs. Joint meetings and social gatherings were held with representatives of Mount Holyoke and Smith Colleges. Although members of the club are from countries whose policies are decidedly inimical, the comradeship and friendliness which prevail are promises of healthier international relations in the future. [ 68 ] International Relations Committee Working in conjunction with the Cosmopolitan Club and the Student Association this committee performs a service that is of value to the student body directly and affects the international life of the college immeasurably. It promotes participation in the Model League of Nations Assembly, the International Scholarship Fund drives which enable Springfield to send students to Europe for a year of study, international friendship on campus, and student participation in the activities of the Foreign Policy Association. The contacts made with students of other countries both by the sending of our students abroad and by having other students come to Springfield are invaluable to those who take advantage of opportunities to associate with these students. Under the guidance of Dr. Frank Mohler and Mr. Doyle Parsons the committee has ably and commendably stimulated interest in international affairs among the student body this year. More students have become con- scious of the interdependent nature and significance of world activity than could have been possible without the influence exercised by this committee on campus. [ 69 ] Maroon Key Society Some years ago a varsity team from Springfield visiting Dartmouth College was escorted while on that campus by members of the Green Key Society . Struck by the pleasant and friendly reception they received, some of the team felt that a similar organization on the Springfield campus would be very worthwhile. Thus the Maroon Key Society came into being. Thirty or thirty-five Sophomores, chosen for their personality, scholarship, and sincerity to serve, compose the body of the organization. The officers are Juniors who have been Sophomore members the previous year. The society cares for all teams visiting the campus, attending to reception on arrival, accommodations, tours of campus high-lights, aid in locating friends, and numerous other personal requests. In addition, its members are available for service in connection with other than athletic events upon application to the Secretary. Many favorable comments are received each year on the work of the members and the friendliness with which they meet visitors. The consistent devotion of time and energy required to make its work effective is well repaid the society by the evident appreciation of what it is doing to make a visit to Springfield College a homecoming . [ 70 ] Athletic Committee The Athletic Committee, under the guidance of H. S. DeGroat, Faculty Manager of Athletics, controls the athletic activities sponsored by the college. Budgets are submitted by the managers of teams and approved or altered by the committee. All schedules and contracts of feams must be confirmed and the names of prospective managers of teams are submitted to this com- mittee. All awards, letters, certificates, and charms for athletic accomplish- ments are carefully checked and passed. Under its supervision junior varsity, freshmen, intramural and campus league activities are pursued. The committee also has a small budget for compensation to athletes injured in competition. This year a pamphlet was issued containing the by-laws and regulations of the Athletic Department in order that every student might understand clearly the operations and require- ments of athletic competition. [ 71 ] Varsity Club The Varsity Club is formed on the basis of athletics, but does not confine itself to athletic aims and objectives. In the past the club has fostered good- will and fellowship among various athletes and athletic bodies on campus as well as promoting sportsmanship and friendship toward athletes of other colleges. This year the primary concentration of the club has been on scholar- ship of its members, athletic attitude being secondary. Prospective members must have earned a varsity letter, must .be satisfactory in scholastic standing, and must be passed into the club after favorable consideration. Members who do not live up to the standards set by the club are liable to dismissal. Entrance into membership is accompanied by an informal initiation of a hazing nature followed by an initiation dance. In these events members of the club are not found lacking in social eminence. Meetings are held once a month during the school year, initiations thr ee times. The officers feel that progress in accomplishing the objectives set has been considerable this year and wish all success to those who control the club ' s destiny in the years ahead. [721 Science Club The Science Club is new to the campus this year. It has been organized to satisfy a felt need for coordination of the various sciences of Springfield College. Each scientific department was so absorbed in its own activities and experiments that little was known of the other science departments. This club seeks to be a medium in conveying current activities in science from one department to the others in the belief that sharing may increase the value of knowledge gained. The aim of the club is to avail those interested in science an opportunity to extend their knowledge and interests . Accomplishment of its objectives involves one meeting every three weeks of the school year, participation in scientific conferences, and exhibition of work. Colleges in the vicinity of Springfield gather annually at one of their institutions to exchange scientific experiments and findings. Springfield College has been represented in the past by its separate departments; the Science Club is the organ of representation for the future. Membership is open to all students, professors, instructors, and tutors who anticipate activity in science, on application to the executive committee. The desire to know and ambition for creative achievements are by-words of the organization. [ 73 ] Music Committee The Music Committee acts in a supervisory capacity over the musical organizations of the campus. The music organizations of the campus have as their ultimate goal a standard of highest excellence. Interest in music has been promoted through the Band under the direction of Mr. William Watkins who did a splendid piece of work in reorganizing and creating a band worthy of mention. The Glee Club under the patient and able direction of Madame Shirley Jackson have shown once more the fineness of a thorough knowledge of vocal and choral music. The Glee Club has realized its objectives to its complete satisfaction. A great deal of praise must go to the Springfield Dons and their leader, Earl O ' Neill, who have contributed so much to our college dances. The Dons played at almost all the college social dances and has proven its ability outside the college activities. It is the wish of the Music Committee that an integrated program of music be established in this college. The committee also wishes to thank all those who have aided in giving music a broader interpretation as one of the finer arts in a college education. [ 74 ] Band The Band this year has been a decided improvement over that of pre- vious years. Under the leadership of Mr. W. J. Watkins during the Fall term, the Band was represented at most of our football games and supplied a stimulus for enthusiasm which has been much lacking. The highlight of that term was the trip to Army where the team was spurred on by familiar marches and school songs. Mr. Watkins was called away at the end of the term and the Band came under the able direction of Bill Wright, our nimble-fingered baton-twirler. Some thirty members continued practice one night each week throughout the year in preparation for services rendered on Stepping-Up Day and at Com- mencement. The Band has become a real student project and is now more objectively and effectively organized than ever before. The members are working toward the purchase of uniforms for next year and a stronger musical unit that will play a vital part in the student activities of the future. [ 75 ] Glee Club The Glee Club, a chorus of thirty-five carefully chosen voices, has had a very successful year under the leadership of Madame Jackson. The repertoire of the club has been highly selective, demanding the best in musical talent and requiring much painstaking practice. Audiences through- out New England have acclaimed the high quality of its concerts. The club was fortunate this year in having exceptional soloists and special numbers. These included a double quartet, Les Finley, Dean Ross, baton-twirling Bill Wright, and the unique trumpet solo offerings of Carroll Newstrom. The season was highlighted by a five-day tour in New York City and climaxed by the home concert and dance at which local enthusiasts heard the club for the first time this year. [ 76 ] Dramatics Committee One of the committees which introduces social and cultural activities into a program overloaded with physical aspects of campus life is the Dramatic Committee. This committee operates under the leadership of Professor Simpson. Chief is a leader in the field of dramatics and has a wide background of experience in dramatic production. The stated purpose of the committee is to sponsor dramatics on campus and cooperate in the production of all pageants presented. Two plays have been offered this year. The first, in cooperation with students of dramatic ability from Westfield State Teachers College, was Hacket ' s Captain Applejack ; the second was Shaw ' s You Never Can Tell. Both shows played to capacity audiences. Some of the members of the cast act in larger productions given in Springfield. Dramatics is receiving increased recognition each year on campus and has a promising future. Fundamentals of dramatic technique apply in many life situations and are invaluable in work followed by graduates of this college. With the reorganization of the Student Association it is hoped that those who have dramatic leanings will combine their interests to foster and further the high quality of dramatics exhibited on campus in the past. [ 77 ] Social Committee Making its plans in close cooperation with the Faculty Social Committee and the dormitory social organization, this group has been very active in maintaining and promoting social occasions on campus. At the end of each term there has been a Sports Formal Dance, coaches of the sports for that term and their wives being invited as patrons and patronesses. Early in the year a get-acquainted dance was held to which all freshmen were urged to come and meet upperclassmen. For this dance the committee also aided the Freshmen in getting Acquainted with girls in the city upon request. There were two social innovations this year initiated by the committee. The first was a free dance to which admission was gained on presentation of the Student Association pass book. The second was a revival of country folk and square dancing which the committee backed and helped continue. This social recreation was very popular and was well attended by the student body. In its planning during the past year the committee attempted to promote social functions on weekends when all teams were away as well as having dances in conjunction with full athletic programs at home. The committee functions, not only in its organizational capacity, but also manages details such as decorations, music, favors, and refreshments. Don Wheeler deserves special recognition for his insight and managing ability as chairman of the committee. 178 ] Junior Prom Committee The Junior Prom Committee departed from tradition this year. Previously the Promenade has been given by the Junior class in honor of the graduating Seniors, with faculty members as guests, and to the exclusion of under- classmen except as waiters or ushers. This year the Promenade was opened to underclassmen with the feeling that many of them would enjoy attending, that the existing friendliness among the classes would be augmented, and that the increase in financial backing would give the committee the oppor- tunity of planning a bigger and better social affair. The tremendous amount of time and effort given by the members of the committee is little appreciated by the uninitiated, but those who have had association with the planning and workings of such a function know that the success of the Junior Prom is due entirely to the cooperation and ceaseless toil of the committee. [ 79 ] Publication Board There are many different publications issued on our campus in the course of a year, more than the average student takes cognizance of. The Publications Board is the power in the background which sets the ultimate standards of these printed works. Approving budgets, staff appointments, and editorial and advertising policies are the functions of the board. Coordination and cooperation for smooth-running literary machinery with a minimum of friction are inspired, encouraged, and demanded by the board. This year the board has tried to act in an advisory capacity as much as possible but interfered insiste ntly when necessary. [ 80 ] The Student The policy of The Student has been three-fold this year. First and fore- most in its program has been the encouragement of free speech, second has been the educational objective of publishing thought-provoking material even at the expense of unfavorable criticism, and third, contributions from other than those on the Student staff have been enthusiastically received. The poetry contest initiated by the paper last year has been continued and a short story contest added this year. Editor Harold Butt wishes to commend the work of Managing Editor Harold C. Crandall during the past year. Largely through his perseverance and encouragement the paper has been regularly issued and campus news has been well covered. [ 81 ] The Directory The Directory, edited under the direction of Wallace Buley, was a great improvement on recent directories issued. It was covered in Maroon and White and contained the names of six-hundred students, their class, and address. Fifty faculty members were listed with their addresses and tele- phone numbers. The book was printed in modernistic lettering which is extremely easy to read. Athletic teams with their respective captains and managers, clubs and associations with their officers, and merchants in the city recommended to students were included in supplementary sections of the book. The Directory is issued early in the Fall of each year as a guide in locating new men on campus or others who have taken new quarters. It is especially helpful to Freshmen while they are adjusting to a strange campus and finds continual use throughout the year. It is sponsored by the Student Association, staff appointments being made by the Publica- tion ' s Board. [ 82 ] Store Committee The Store Committee plays an important but not widely recognized role in the life of every student on the Springfield College campus. It has direct supervision of the Student Store in which several students, acting in the capacities of manager and clerks, have the opportunity of earning some of their college expenses, and also supervising the delivery of student mail. The committee has full supervision of all campus concessions and ad- ministers as fairly as possible permits to students who sell commodities and services which are of direct convenience to the student body. Applications for concessions are received, thoroughly investigated, and finally awarded to those students who are most worthy and most needy in the light of investigation. Only concessions which are definitely beneficial to the student body are considered by the committee. The issuance of permits is backed by the guarantee of the Store Committee that the concessionaire will be adequately protected from any outside competition or solicitors on campus. The committee supervises the greater part of Woods Hall, including under its jurisdiction the store, post office, social room, barber shop, and the offices of the Student Association. Working in the background, but having a large part in setting the stage and spotlight, the Store Committee is a primary factor in our campus activity and progress. [ 83 ] Tea and Topics This literary society of Springfield College is primarily a club for students who wish to contribute. Its members offer their knowledge of words, poetry, literature, pronunciation, music, drama, and many other worthwhile subjects to their fellow members. Any student is eligible to join the membership by presenting himself at one of the weekly meetings. The club was conceived and organized by Harold Butt four years ago and meets under the advisorship of Professor C. B. Frasher, in his home. In Mrs. Frasher, club members find a charming hostess and a member whose interest in the proceedings equals their own. The society is unique on the campus in some respects. It has no formal initiation, no code of regulations, no dues. It is the only campus organi- zation that meets weekly throughout the school year. The club makes two demands of its members; one, that they participate in the programs and learn by doing; two, that they share their knowledge, courtesy, and experiences with fellow members, that the learning process may be both caught and taught . In short, informally informative is another way of saying, Tea and Topics . [ 84 ] Debating Society This year ' s Debating team has performed three times during the season. The subject of all debates has been concerned with government ownership and operation of electric utilities. The first encounter was with Bay Path Institute. For the first time in Springfield College history a radio broadcast of a debate took place. This was initiated over Station W.S.P.R. The second opportunity for our speakers came with the visiting on our campus of the debating team from Upsala College. The third engagement was, as far as is known, the first of its kind in the history of Intercollegiate debate. A.I.C., Bay Path Institute, and our college were the participants. Two composite teams were formed, each school being represented by one man on each team, affirmative and negative. By this procedure possibility of hard feeling between schools because of decisions rendered was decisively eliminated. It was felt that the educational advan- tages were thus placed on a healthier basis, because no school won or lost. Although the number of debates scheduled this year was small, under the inspiring criticism and keen vision of Dr. J. Berg Esenwein, the team feels that its efforts have been well rewarded. Next year the team looks forward to continued activities with Bay Path Institute and A. I. C. on the subject of education. [ 85 ] Religious Committee The Religious Committee coordinates all those student activities which are of a religious or educational nature. The Peace Committee, a sub-division of the Religious Committee, was active during the spring term in advancing the cause of world peace. A panel discussion with eight faculty members partici- pating was well attended by the student body. A peace demonstration was held in April in cooperation with colleges and universities throughout the country. During the fall and winter terms the committee sponsored chapel services in Carlisle Foyer on Sunday mornings. A sociological trip to New York City was made possible during the fall term by the Religious Committee, and advantage was taken of that opportunity by a dozen interested students. It is customary for a number of delegates to attend both summer and win- ter sessions of the Northfield Conference of the New England Student Christian Movement. Although not directly associated with the Movement, the Com- mittee has cooperated actively in the past. The chief concern of the Springfield College Religious Committee is the fostering of a spirit of international friendliness and goodwill through the medium of religious and educational activities and opportunities sponsored on campus and at off-campus conferences. [ 86 ] Graduate Students Graduate students matriculating at Springfield College are admitted on a basis of high scholarship, evidence of successful service in their field of work, and research ability. Three major degrees may be received in graduate work at Springfield College. The first, and most widely granted, is Master of Education. In addition, the College offers degrees of Master of Humanics and Master of Physical Education. Scholarships are available for graduates on the basis of service grants in accordance with sufficiently high academic standing. In addition to the graduate students in residence, there are many who study at the summer session and do research work under supervision while on the job during the year. A number of those in residence carry heavy schedules of outside work in addition to their full load of study. Countries represented in the graduate division this year included Aus- tralia, Canada, Greece, France, India, Egypt, Argentina, and China as well as our own. [ 87 ] SPORTS Lacrosse The 1936 lacrosse season proved to be one of the highlights of Leo Netter ' s coaching career. The Springfield team again won the New England Championship. Playing the stiffest schedule ever arranged for the local team proved to be the incentive for an almost perfect record. The opening Saturday found the local club journeying down to New Haven to stop the Yale Bulldogs, 11-7. Captain Colburn proved his worth as captain by leading the home team to an easy victory. The next week found the locals on a 400 mile trek to New York State to take on Colgate and Hobart. On Friday the local stick wielders handed Col- gate a 9-1 trouncing. The next day brought Springfield the only defeat of the season at the hands of Hobart, 7-8. Both teams displayed a wonderful brand of lacrosse, but Hobart obtained a good break at the right time and this spelled victory for them. Crowell, Springfield ' s stellar attack man went to the infirmary with a broken foot after turning in an exceptional display of skill for the local team. Harvard proved to be Springfield ' s next step on the path to the New England Championship. The local club emerged victoriously after a last minute rally led by limmy Smith. Savage College journeyed up to Springfield only to go home sorely beaten. The local boys scored 21 goals against their opponents ' 3. The [ 90 ] regular squad was given a rest as Coach Netter tried out some of his sopho- more charges. Another Saturday and the Maroons journeyed to Hanover to hand the Dartmouth club a 7-1 defeat. The home team was never threatened and displayed a superb style of lacrosse. The next eight days found the Springfield club playing three games and gaining three victories. The first came at the hands of C.C.N.Y., 10-6. Brown University and Tufts fell the same way by scores of 11-1 and 19-4 respectively. The last game of the year proved to be the highlight of the season. Both Springfield and New Hampshire were undefeated and the Championship was to be decided. Springfield emerged victor, 4-2, but it was a battle all the way. On the way home from New Hampshire a banquet was held. Lloyd Sanborn was elected captain of the 1937 team. Springfield was later honored by the placing of Jimmy Smith, Dick Putnam, Walt Colburn, and Crowell on the All-New England Mythical Team. Captain-elect Sanborn was picked for the second t eam. Coach Netter and the boys are to be con- gratulated on a highly successful season.

The next day this same team was met and the tables were turned with Elon winning, 3-1. The next day, the game to be played at Catawba was called because of rain so the team journeyed to Lenoir Rhyne College and after a hard-fought nine innings, lost to the Southerners, 3-2. With one game remaining to be played, the team went to Chapel Hill, North Carolina, to play the university of North Carolina Tarheels. Carolina showed the makings of a good ball team and led by their pitcher, Humphries, who is now in the major leagues, they crashed out a 10-5 victory. Although the southern trip was not too successful from the standpoint of games won, it gave the necessary early season experience. The squad then put in a week of hard work in preparation for the Yale game and its efforts were rewarded. With Karl Davis on the mound holding the Bulldog to two runs, his team mates succeeded in scoring ten runs at the expense of three Yale pitchers. The next opponent was also an Eastern Intercollegiate team, Dartmouth, and again Springfield was victorious, 10-7. This game was featured by the long range hitting of George Celia. The next contest found Captain Smith and his mates gaining a 4-3 decision over Boston College in Boston. Frey was on the mound and with the tying Springfield run on base he drove out a triple to tie the game. He scored on the next play on Nuttall ' s single. Middlebury invaded our campus a week later but Walter Malins of the home team kept them well in check while his mates, led by Warren Huston, pounded out a 6-0 victory. With a four-game winning streak behind them, the charges of Coach Degroat went to Providence to play the strong Providence College team there. Providence piled up an early five-run lead and in spite of the long range hitting of Archie Allen, our boys were finally beaten, 8-6. Williams came next to our diamond but returned home, beaten by the score of 13-2. Captain Smith and Tracy wielded very powerful bats, each getting three hits apiece. [ 92 ] The next game was advertised as the banner college baseball attraction of the season for Springfield was to play Holy Cross in Worcester. A twelve run lead compiled in the first two innings proved to be too much for our boys, and they went down to defeat, 20-8. Norm Keith featured for Springfield with four hits. The following day the team went to Amherst where it suffered its second defeat in as many days. Buscall hit hard but this was not enough to overcome the Amherst attack. The following week, Springfield embarked on a trip into New York State where Colgate was met as the first opponent. Davis again pitched fine ball holding the Red Raiders to 2 runs while his mates, led by Smith and Celia pounded out 10 runs to win the game. The following day, St. Lawrence was played and Springfield was helpless trying to hit the fast ball of Peek, the St. Lawrence pitcher, while his team mates scored two runs to win the game, 2-0. The following day Springfield took revenge on the neighboring school, Clarkson Tech, and scored an 8-3 victory. This contest was featured by the hitting of Archie Allen and Roy Nuttall. With a record of two victories in three games, the team returned home to encounter Mass. State. This game was a close affair but timely hitting by Huston and Smith saved the day for Springfield and the game was won, 7-4. The men of Massasoit next entertained the nine from St. Michaels but the entertainment was furnished by the home team. Malins held St. Michaels to no runs while his team was scoring 16. Keith and Tracy both hit hard for the home forces who forced the opponents to use four pitchers. New Hampshire next brought one of the best teams of the year to play here and they sent our men down to defeat, 7-2. Holy Cross came to town to play a return game and the 2500 fans who turned out were not disappointed. The best game of the year was played with the scoring being close at all times. A home run by Brucato of the visitors clinched the game for them in the eighth inning and the Crusaders won, 7-5. Lowell Textile came to Springfield at commencement time, but they were promptly sent home on the short end of a 19-13 score. The following day, the traditional alumni game was played with the Varsity team beating the Grads, 8-3.

The veteran Maroon track mentor had but five men out of which to form the nucleus for his 1936 team, and the loss of Stu Parks through graduation had left a big gap for the most valuable athlete of the N.E. was the chief mainstay of the three previous track teams. Led by Captain Boyden, the five lettermen left were: Walmsley, a consistent placer in the shot, dashes, and broad; Turner, runner-up for the N.E. high jumping title and a threat in the broad jump; Ellis, timber topper and high jump artist; Gould, specializing in the pole vault; and last but not least, Captain Boyden, who took care of the 440 and the low hurdles. As in previous years, the first meet was held against Maine at the Pine Tree State ' s University. A comparatively green team set out for Orono. Some twenty-three men, of which ten were untried sophomores, left ' the shores of Massasoit for the wilds of the Landon-state to return some three days later on the short end of an 80-to-55 score. Despite the defeat, Coach Rothacher was well pleased with the results of his men. Ace Turner and Roccy Dattola were the only two double winners for the locals. The [ 94 ] former taking the broad jump and the high jump, while the latter showed his heels to the pack in the mile and half mile. The following week the Rothachermen were humbled 75-2 3 to 59-1 3 by a well-balanced Bowdoin track team which was paced by Phil Good, N.E. champion in the high and low hurdles. The local stand-outs were Walmsley, Turner, Dattola, and Readel. Springfield did more than her share in the field events only to have the Bears forge ahead in the track events. After resting over Junior Prom week-end, the local cinder burners were forced to accept their third straight defeat when the Northeastern track team eked out a 71 2 to 63 V 2 d ecision. Here again the Maroon track men took the greater percentage of points in the field events only to have the Bos- tonians prove themselves to be the better in the running events. The high light of the meet was the four firsts garnered by Northeastern ' s Hakenson who copped the century, 220, high and low hurdles. Dattola was the high point man for the locals when he took the mile and half with Turner and Walmsley giving him a close race for second honors. Northeastern, by the way, were the defending champions in the N.E.I.C.A.A. On the following week-end some ten men travelled to Providence to participate in the 1936 edition of the New Englands. Springfield garnered but eight points which were due to the efforts of Turner, Ellis, and Dattola. The first two placed in the high jump while the latter took a fifth in the mile. The cinder proteges of Coach Rothacher closed the season with a 77-1 6 to 57-5 16 victory over the New Hampshire Wildcats. For the first time of the season, Springfield showed balanced strength. The Maroons took nine firsts while the visitors were able to garner only six. The meet produced two local double winners in Walmsley and Turner. However, it was not the efforts of a certain few individuals, but the team as a whole that made for the splendid victory. Thus the 1936 season ended for the Maroon track men — three defeats to one victory. Henry Walmsley was elected to captain the 1937 team. However, with twelve letter men, consisting of Boyden, Dattola, Gould, Hawke, Nelson, Raymond, Readel, Rosengren, Tandy, Thompson, Turner, and Captain-elect Walmsley, returning. Coach Rothacher is confident that his 1937 team will be one of the best ever to wear the Maroon and White.

As a result of this lack of practice and conditioning work the Brock-coached group dropped their opener by a 6-3 count. All the matches were extra set affairs and on the whole it was not a disappointing engage- ment. Prior to the match the members of the team unanimously elected Dick Hebard to the captaincy. The next match was against R.P.I. on the home surface and what looked like a victory had to be postponed when it stood at two victories apiece. Rain fell in buckets to force a tie decision. The New England Intercollegiates came along soon after and four members were selected to go to the tourna- ment which was held at Wesleyan; they were Dick Hebard, Ward, Porozinske, and Hanson. All but Hebard lost out in the first round while Dick fell prey to the better conditioned strokes of the winner soon after the initial round. Ward and Hanson did well in the doubles, nearly upsetting the seeded number two team. Providence College, with an even balanced group of players, visited Pratt Field next and with their eye on revenge for the previous year ' s defeat, managed to conquer the Maroons by a 6-3 score. The feature of [ 96 ] the contest was an exciting match between Fitzpatrick of the Friars and Hebard, the latter winning after a keen tussle. A three-match trip into New York state was rather successful as the Brockmen returned with two victories and one defeat suffered at the hands of the R.P.I. forces. The victories were scored over Albany Business College and Bard. The final match of the season was played at home against Tufts. The men from Medford were out for revenge because of their last year ' s defeat by the locals. Their quest was successful as they emerged with a victory in a hard 6-3 session. Dick Hebard kept his competitive slate clean as he defeated their number one man. Beginning the season with only two lettermen in their lineup, the Maroons did rather well. Of the first seven men, only two were experienced, namely Captain Hebard and Nelson Scott. Ward, Hanson, Witbeck, Sampson, Oermann, Edgerly, and many excellent frosh players will make next year ' s team much stronger in addition to the return of Bob Anderson from Germany. RECORD S. Opp. S.

Coach Rothacher had a squad of fifty men return two weeks early to prepare for one of Springfield ' s toughest seasons. There was much work on fundamentals and conditioning, and a new double shift was introduced. The squad was somewhat handicapped because of a lack of veterans. Only six lettermen from last year ' s team reported; Captain Huston, Goodwin, Fascitelli, Plumb, Rosengren, and Kiernan, but Coach Rothacher soon built a team around this nucleus. In the opening game Springfield was repulsed by a strong St. Anselms ' aggregation, 14-0. Springfield opened its season represented by the follow- ing men: Atkinson, Raymond, Tandy, Hall, Fascitelli, Rosengren, Flint, Plumb, Huston, Goodwin, and Frey. Springfield proved to be the first step on the road to St. Anselms ' undefeated season. Springfield again played at home and took Northeastern into camp, 9-7. The home club gained an early lead, Captain Huston kicking a field goal for 3 points. They increased this in the second period when Flint went over for a touchdown on a pass from Huston. Northeastern threatened in the last quarter by scoring a touchdown and converting for the extra point but they were unable to overcome Springfield ' s lead. The Rutgers ' game played at New Brunswick proved to be one of the highlights of the season. Springfield won by a 6-0 score. This was the first [ 98 ] victory for the Mass, boys over Rutgers since 1915. The field was a sea of mud, but it didn ' t stop 4,500 from turning out for the game. The lone score of the game came after Raymond recovered a fumble on the Scarlet ' s 22-yard line. Two line plunges proved unsuccessful, so Springfield took to the air. Dattola dropped back and threw Husty a pass, and Springfield had the winning margin. The following week Springfield journeyed to West Point to take on the Army, and 25,000 people turned out to see the game. Springfeild did not seem to display the stamina that led them to victory over Rutgers, and conse- quently came out on the wrong end of a 33-0 score. The Army staged a dress parade before the game. The Springfield band made quite a showing, led by Bill Wright, whose swinging of the big baton created somewhat of a sensation. After two weeks of traveling Springfield returned to Pratt Field to display their prowess by handing Providence College, a traditional rival, a 19-0 setback. Showing real style in blocking, kicking, and passing, the same team gained an easy victory. The St. Thomas array of Scranton, Pa., journeyed to Springfield and went home with a 7-0 victory. It was a heart-breaking game to lose because Springfield scored about two seconds after the whistle blew, and it looked for a minute as if the touchdown would be counted. This same week saw Springfield traveling up to Durham, N. H., to take on the New Hampshire Wildcats. Battling through four hard periods of play the Maroons and the Wildcats fought to a scoreless tie before 5,000 people. Springfield closed its season with an easy win over the Davis-Elkins grid combine of West Virginia. The final whistle showed the score 20-6. George Goodwin featured the game with a 54-yard run for one score. Later on he lateraled to Huston for another. Herman Dutch” Frey, the hard-running fullback, was elected next year ' s captain.

Some eight lettermen reported from last year; Captain Red Spahr, Boyden, Hansen, Van Korb, Sortikopolis, Kay, Smith, Ward, and Anderson. The coaches lost no time in developing a smooth functioning team from this nucleus, aiming to garner New England honors. The Dartmouth Indians, first opponents of the Springfield soccer schedule for 1936 set the Maroons down 3-2 at Hanover. The winning goal came as a result of a penalty kick in the second over-time period. Smith and Gaston scored for Springfield. Opening its home season with a mid-week game the Brockmen scored a 3-0 impressive victory over McGill University. The contest gave evidence of a smooth functioning Springfield team. High honors went to Sortikopolis with two goals. On the following Saturday the Maroons downed Bard College 6-0 on the latter ' s field. However, the weather did not give the boys a chance to show a real brand of soccer. Substitutions were plentiful to find the best combinations. Dick Smith was high man for the local combination, scoring two goals. [ 100 ] A closing moment goal gave the Yale Bulldogs a 2-1 victory over the locals. Steinhoff ' s impressive work in the goal proved to be the highlight of the day. Yale scored the winning goal in the second over-time period. The Prudential A.A. of Newark, N. ]., handed the Maroons a 3-1 set- back. The visitor ' s line was composed of former college stars, and the experience of these men proved a deciding factor in this contest. The next week-end the Maroon booters traveled to Syracuse to return with a 3-3 tie. For the third time of the season the locals were forced to play extra periods, but the tie could not be broken. Sortikopolis scored twice. The Indians played host to Temple University and handed the Pennsyl- vania college a 2-1 defeat. This was their third victory of the season. Overtime periods seemed to be predominant this season for Coach Brock ' s proteges. Again against Harvard, Springfield was forced into the extra periods. However, at the final gun the score still stood, Springfield 1, Harvard 1. The Varsity Soccer team held its banquet at the Highland Hotel. Letters were awarded and short talks were given by the coaches. George Gaston was elected 1937 captain. Captain Red Spahr closed his college career by making the mythical All-American team with Sortikopolis placing himself on the second selection. [ 101 ] Cross Country The Cross Country team once again fought against odds and produced a satisfactory record. The first meet was run with Massachusetts State College at Amherst. The course was a short one, but with a very steep hill, and the State team outclassed the Maroons. The Amherst school had much more training than the Maroon plodders, but every Springfield man finished. Holder, the first of our men to finish, took fifth place, four State men tying for first, with Captain Hampson coming in seventh. The following week again saw the Maroon harriers in Amherst, this time running against Amherst College over a very wet course, and not scoring quite as well as the week before. Two hard meets were run within three days of each other, both bringing defeat for the Maroons, and both in the pouring rain. The first with Wesleyan was at Middletown and the second was in Brunswick, Maine with Bowdoin College. The week after the Bowdoin trip found the team again up north, this time with the Uni- versity of Vermont, and although defeated, an improved score was recorded. The Maroons played host to Bard College and defeated them by a large score, Gillis taking first place, with Captain Hampson, Menge, Perkins, and Baker taking third, fourth, fifth, and sixth, respectively. When the Maroon team ran against the Conn. State College team, they were again defeated. [ 102 ] The team went twice to Boston to enter two championships. The first the Harvard Open and the second was the New England Intercollegiates. The Maroon squad was coached by Bliss Sargeant, managed by Ted” Rockwell, and captained by Leonard Hampson. Holder and Snow were honored by their team mates by election to the co-captaincy of the team for the season 1937. RECORD S. OPP. Mass.

Coach Hickox expressed his confi- dence in their potential power and the team responded to their captain ' s and coach ' s enthusiasm to establish a record that again brought the cham- pionship title of New England to Springfield. This steady Maroon quintet fought through their season and finished with the enviable record of eighteen victories and three defeats. In the pre-season games, five victories were scored in as many games. On their trip into New York, the outstanding game was with Columbia from whom they won by a close score of 35-34. During the next week-end, the hoop stars faced two classy teams, Villanova and St. Anselms, but victory was still with Springfield. After the Christmas holidays, the basketball men returned to their training and met a smooth and fast team from Rutgers. At this time the first defeat was registered after a hard and fast scramble at the Armory. Recovering from this game in good shape the team went to work and topped the next four games, defeating the high scoring Rhode Island team on their own floor, and New Hampshire, Amherst, and Williams. After the indecisive victory from Williams the team lost to Northeastern. The trip to Vermont showed three decisive victories and this winning strain continued until the next to last game which was the second game with Providence, this being dropped to them, 39-35. The season closed with an interesting game with Tufts which the Maroon five won, 36-32. One of the outstanding games of the year was the St. Francis game down at Madison Square Garden. Avenging last year ' s defeat, the Springfield team came out of the fray with a victory of 35-14. It was at this game that the team donned their new sweatsuits which were certainly christened majestically. [ 104 ] Graduation hits the team a severe blow for it takes Dick Hebard, Roy Nuttall, and Curly Meyers. These men produced a brand of basektball that provided points for the team and excitement for the spectators. Recogniz- ing the steady and dependable playing of the guard, Bill Lawler, they elected him to captain the 1938 team.

I have received excellent training in highly skilled physical activities, and conse- quently I am better equipped as a teacher in the field of Physical Education. The friends I have made through going into strange cities and into private homes where I have stayed I could not have made any other way. As I traveled about the country I found that former gymnastic men had strategic positions in the educational and recreational fields. Members of the team have made contacts that have led to their receiving fine positions. I have found that the alumni have been anxious to hear about their school. I found that there were misconceptions that people had concerning Springfield College, and it gave me an opportunity to let them know what Springfield is doing. The team made some important contributions in the educational field. Mr. Judd ' s tableau showing the human body in various poses is being recognized as an art that has a great future. Dancing for men is being pioneered in by the team under the capable leadership of Mr. Judd. At the National Physical Education Association conference and the National Dancing Conference the dance numbers were enthusiastically received and highly acclaimed. The team because of its contributions has gained the respect of the foremost educators in the country. Requests for the use of the dance numbers, drills, and statuary have been coming in by the hundreds. The team has furnished to educators all over the country inspiration and ideas for the benefit of their communities. Personalities make anything either a success or a failure. The presence of the two captains, Carroll Bryant and Joe Mixie, added much to the team. Joe Mixie spent last year studying Physical Education in Budapest, Hungary, and traveled with the Hungarian Olympic team to Berlin. Carroll Bryant [ 107 ] was selected by the Internation Sports Congress to go as a guest of the German government to the Olympic games. Both of these men brought to the team a wealth of experience. Felix Matulevitz spent last summer studying the dance under Ted Shawn and his contribution in dancing was seen especially in the Cuban Cane Cutter ' s Dance.

Not since 1928 has Springfield placed a hockey team on the ice. At that time the sport was dropped from the role of activities because of inade- quate facilities and uncertain ice conditions. It is true that there probably has never been a season during which the ice conditions of outside rinks has been more uncertain than during the past winter, but Springfield was fortunate to have access to the Coliseum, which affords the best of playing conditions even though its use is limited. During the past few years there has been an undertone about the Campus expressing an urge for hockey. The materialization of this hope can be, to a great extent, credited to Capt. Huston. Although Husty is capable of making the grade in college basketball, as he showed during his freshman year, he has never been able to discard the love for hockey that he acquired at Newton. Nifty was an all-scholastic wing man in High School. With a nucleus of such enthusiasts as Dain, Burr, Hirschoff, Thompson, Hunt, Tyler, Brooks, Carlson, and Plumb, he set about to make hockey a varsity sport. Rather than wait for affirmation from the Adminis- tration the boys displayed enough initiative to set up a temporary schedule and budget for the season. With this evidence, secured through the efforts [ 109 ] of Manager Raimo, the proposition was placed before the Administration which perfunctorily sanctioned the move with the minor stipulation that it should not infringe upon other winter sports. The problem of a coach was amply solved when Leo Netter offered his services. It is no easy task to take a group of men who have neither played a game together nor played against college opposition and expect them to successfully encounter first class opposition. This is the situation in which Mr. Netter placed himself, and, in the team ' s opinion, he was probably more successful than he had anticipated. The result of the first season was indeed a success as may be seen by viewing the record. True the first three games were lost by large scores, but they were lost to teams who play good college hockey. This fact alone was probably instrumental in the success enjoyed during the remainder of the campaign, for playing against good opposition affords an excellent basis for development. Those who saw the final game of the season witnessed the teamwork displayed in the forward lines, with Huston, Burr, Plumb, Dain, Bush, Rosengren, executed with precision, and the defensive work of Tyler, Brook, Hunt, Carlson, Smith and Thompson, kept the disc out of dangerous territory. The men are proud of the first season, and with the experience and material that will Pe carried over to next year predict an even more suc- cessful time. The 1938 schedule is nearing completion with Mass. State, Brown, Army, Colgate, Hamilton, Middlebury, and St. Anselms already contracted and an adequate basis for a budget which will surely meet the approval of the Administration. Those who love the sport, the fastest game in the world that is played by humans alone, certainly hope that this year ' s success wil l prove evidence enough for the sanctioning of hockey as a regular winter sport. [HO] Varsity Wrestling When Dave Russell and Ray Corbin decided to transfer to other colleges, the Varsity Wrestling squad tried to recover from the loss by an early start in practice sessions. More setbacks hit the team when Charlie Bohlinger and Elmer Scott were among the missing when the roll was called. As a final salute to the team, Rosy Rosengren was advised against participating in the sport by Dr. Hopkins. His loss was the most keenly felt as he was the heavyweight New Englcnd Champion the preceding year. After a few days of training, Co-Capt. Gould pulled a rib cartilage and was lost for some time. The squad opened the season by going to Harvard and falling before the Crimson, 29-3 margin. Co-Capt. Belanich was the only winner in this meet. However, the following Friday the team took their first home meet, 24-10, when they were hosts to E. Stroudsburg. The following evening, a trip to Yale proved to be as disastrous as the one to Harvard when the Maroons went down before the Blues by a 31-3 margin. Once again Iggie Belanich saved his team from a white wash defeat. A trip to New York resulted in a 22-10 victory over Brooklyn Poly and a 22 1 2-4 V 2 defeat at the hands of C.C.N.Y. Belanich was the individual star of the meet as he ran his string of victories to five. Two trips, the first to Brown where the Maroons were beaten 30-6 and the second to Tufts where the Tuftmen sent Springfield home with a 22-10 defeat, made the standing five losses in seven meets. [ill] Before a gala holiday crowd, the Maroons hit their stride when they pounded the Wesleyan warriors into a 25-3 defeat. This marked the first return of Bob Gould since his unsuccessful attempt against East Stroudsburg when he was forced to default. Williams and M.I.T. visited the campus on successive week-ends following the Washington Day victory and both teams were sent home on the low end of the score, Williams losing 17-13 and M.I.T. 28-8. The first of these wins was due to the suberb performance of big Art Coons in the heavyweight class. At the New England ' s the Maroons represented by Hawke, Snow, Belanich, Hanson, Gould, George, English and Coons, couldn ' t keep up with the stride that they had been hitting for the past three weeks and ended up in fourth place. However, many of the men went into the finals before they were eliminated. They returned home with Art Coons, crowned the new New England Heavyweight Champion.

Encountering the best teams in the country, the boys were severely handicapped by lack of material and managed to win only one meet. Winning is a small factor in the success of a team and the boys proved this to all of their competitors by displaying real Springfield sportsmanship. It is impossible to estimate the benefits the boys received by their training routine, their coaching experience, and the fellowships formed while working together. In the opening meet of the season Amherst defeated the locals at Amherst, 50-27. With the Amherst team displaying one of the strongest teams in its history, the Maroons faired very well, despite their weakened combination. Co-captain Bob Raymond and Francis Noonan were the principal point getters for the locals. In the second meet the Williams swimmers broke five college records to defeat the Maroons, 62-25. The following week found the local ducks staying at home to lose to the Brown natators, 44-29. Again Co-captain Bob Raymond and Dave Warner looked good for our team. The next meets were lost to Dartmouth, Brown, Bowdoin, Harvard and Yale. It was really no disgrace to lose to teams of their calibre, as shown especially in the Yale meet when the Eli swimmers broke seven records, in defeating Springfield. [ 113 ] For the closing meet real skill was shown while Connecticut State won, 46-31. Co-captains Raymond and Warner, Noonan, Page and Schuster, won places for Springfield. Dave Warner entertained his team mates at his home for the annual banquet where Bill Blanchard and Frankie Noonan were elected co-captains for next year. Coach Don Stone built up a well-rounded team and with the help of the freshmen coming up the squad should fare well next year.

We knew nothing of the different forms of opposition which the boys had to battle nor the strain under which they fought this opposition. These plucky young men carried on throughout the season without the guidance of a full- time coach. Billy Taylor, Director of Athletics in the Junior High Schools, Hartford, Conn., met the boys on Tuesday and Thursday nights, and led them through a fast workout, giving them his valuable knowledge of the game. This terminated the extent of the coaching that the boys received, but each day in the boxing room they worked out faithfully. The team was never in a complete form this year with vacancies in three divisions. Every meet the boys went into, competition was started with three points against them as they had to forfeit points in the bantam, lightheavy, and heavyweight classes. In spite of this handicap they managed to fight to a draw with the aggregation from M.I.T. The first meet of the season brought the National Coast Guard Academy to our arena. The feature in this match was in the 125-lb. class in which Ellis Donavan fought and won his first intercollegiate boxing bout. Coast Guard had the more experienced team and although Cort Cooley, Ward Moyer, Henry Walmsley, and Charles Folsom fought hard they could not meet the terrific onslaught of the opponents. On February 20 the team journeyed to New Brunswick, N. J., where they put up a good fight against the mitmen of Rutgers University. Although each [ 115 ] bout was interesting and colorful, Ellis Donovan and Eric Headley were the only men to emerge the victors. Headley, the most aggressive member of the team, completely stopped his man in the third round, the referee stopping the bout. At M.I.T. the boxers put on their best performance of the season. Despite the fact that they went into the meet with three points against them, the final score was four to four. Ellis Donavan started the scoring by winning a decision, and in doing so displayed some of the most brilliant boxing that Coach Taylor has seen in years. When the bell rang for Eric Headley ' s bout, he came out of the corner like a tiger and acted like that until he knocked his man out of the ring, breaking his nose after one minute and fifty seconds of the first round. Charles Folsom gave the fans the best show of the evening. He not only punched, but laughed and clowned his way to victory in the 175-lb. class. Cort Cooley was well on his way to victory before his opponent got across one of those unexpected lucky punches and the referee stopped the bout. The last meet of the season was at Yale University, where the team did not fare so well. Donavan won a decision over his man and remained unde- feated for the year. Yale had no easy job in taking the rest of the bouts, and Springfield came out on the trailing end of a six to two score. At a recent meeting of the Athletic Committee, a Boxing Team was voted against for next year. Lack of interest in the sport is the main reason for this. Although we have a fine, experienced nucleus for a team, we can not take the chance of embarrassing other schools the way we did this past season. The Association will not back a team unless it consists of at least two men for each weight division, so those who are interested in the sport and want a team had better get busy and talk it up. [ 116 ] Fencing Captained by Allan Witbeck, our foiling blade crossers fenced iheir first season as a recognized varsity sport. Well may Springfield be proud of this team which, although not winning a dual meet, covered themselves with glory in meeting Harvard, M.I.T., Bowdoin, The Hartford Fencing Club, Norwich University, and Amherst College. ( 117 ] Lloyd Sanborn and Charlie Leong paced the sabre contingent. Captain Witbek, Carl Klein, Jack Seldon and Sanborn, upheld the foil division and Captain-Elect Larry Clark, together with Bob Young and Selden, formed an unbeatable Eppe trio. Coached by Leonard Hampson and Mike Mango this fencing team really became worthy of the name, for, as the season progressed their work became smoother, faster, and more accurate. Perhaps, the best tribute we can pay these men is to salute them with a Carry On”! Manager T. T. Rockwell will have another attractive schedule arranged for next year. [ 118 ] Freshman Football The Freshman Football team won one game and lost two. The victory was scored over a strong Suffield team, while the defeats were suffered against New Hampton and Roxbury. The 1940 team ' s record is not so discouraging when it is considered that the breaks against the Freshmen were responsible for the New Hampton game, while Roxbury was rated one of the strongest prep school teams in New England. Members of the squad were: Captain Solomon, Higginbotham, Finn, Landis, Obeck, Varheley, Neily, Phipps, Werner, Anderson, Swift, Huth, Burgess, Redding, Kibbe, Kohout, Knowles, T. Johnson, Lindsay, Domaszewski, Proiette, Sisson, Poskitt, Yundt, Sabol, Parmalee, G. Johnson, O ' Brien, Mac- Donald, Birt, Simmons.

The triumphs were scored over the strong Williston eleven, M.I.T. Frosh, and Nichols Junior Collge. The Williston game was the outstanding game of the year when the Freshmen defeated a Williston team that claimed victories over the Amherst and Williams Freshman teams. The Lettermen are: Soutiere (Captain), Munro, Condon, Mortensen, Gifford, Sorrentino, DeVita, Ellison, Babb, Clark, Silvia, Safford, Carlton, Lee, Farrelly, Chachis, and Manager Davis.

Hartford High, Trinity Frosh, and Mt. Pleasant High were the victors over the Maroon Cubs. The 1940 Hill and Dalers might have chalked one win, but one of the Maroon Clubs ran off the course against Trinity when he might have placed second and given Coach Sargeant ' s pupils the victory. The Lettermen are: Captain Adams, Quincy, Norling, Bryant, Knecht, Tsachnaris, Robinson, and Sinnett.

The defeat came at the hands of one of the strongest freshman teams in Providence ' s history. A rally in the last period failed to win for the Maroon Cubs. Victories were scored over such strong prep school teams as Williston, Roxbury, and Worcester. The Freshman were also victorious over the Junior Varsity. The Lettermen are: Captain Munro, Chase, Redding, Luther, Werner, Clark, Opderbeck, Pitts, Sabol, Proiette, Greene, and Knowles.

[ 123 ] Freshman Gym The Freshman Gym team this year did not make many trips away from the campus, but the members did make rapid progress and many of them will be valuable assets for the Varsity Gym team next year. Exhibitions were given at Holyoke, Buckingham Junior High School; a home exhibition came on Freshman Day. The following members constituted the team: Rudy Matousek, Caron, Bagian, Condon, Dustin, Ellison, Gilley, Huse, Higginbotham, DeVita, New- strom, Noftle, Parmalee, Roeller, Perkins, and Sorenson. [ 12 +] Freshman Wrestling This team handled itself capably and was a credit to the college. On February 13, they went up against the Brown Frosh and were beaten by the score of 20-13. Again the following week they were defeated by th e Tufts Frosh team, 23-15. Shortly after they tied the M.I.T. Freshmen, 20-20. At the New England Intercollegiates on March 12 and 13, several of the men did well; Augustine emerged New England Champ in the 126 pound class, Green reached the finals in the 135 pound, Lee succumbed in the semi-finals at the 155 pound weight, and Domazewski also fell victim in the semi-finals in the 175 pound. The following men were on the team: Augustine, Lee, Green, Swift, Browning, Domazewski, Norling, Werner, Dollar, Shambaugh and Belkas. [ 125 ] We like this view . . .
