Dr. Mason ' s tall figure and bulging brief case are familiar sights to Swarthmore students, hlis office on second west is a clearing house for all tangled problems that have run the gauntlet of the lower echelons and have finally reached his desk through channels. This is not to say, however, that students with problems are not welcome to the inner sanctum. Although his day is usually filled with answering correspondence, attending luncheons, dinners, teas, and various and sundry other meetings, Prexy can always find time to listen to a deserving gripe from a student or faculty member. Many a student, having his morn- ing coffee or afternoon snack In Commons, has been surprised to find himself In a conversation with Dr. Nason about subjects ranging from Leib- niz to the beautiful sunrises to be seen In this area. A graduate of Carleton College, Minnesota, President Nason was awarded a Rhodes Scholar- ship from Minnesota. He received his B. A. from Oriel College, Oxford. He earned his M.A. at Harvard. Honors conferred upon him were degrees of LL.D. from Carleton and the University of Penn- sylvania, and LItt. D. from Muhlenberg, Hahnemann Medical College and Hospital of Philadelphia. He also attended Yale Divinity School for one year. One of his most prized honors was being elected a Fellow of the National Council on Religion in Higher Education. He was President of the Board of Directors of that body from 1943-1949. Mr. Nason has written numerous articles on various aspects of education and religion; at present he is engaged In writing a book on the eighteenth century philosopher Llebniz. The varied talents and wide experience possessed by Dr. Nason, his quick grasp of the problems of the college community, whether business or personal, are seen in his successful administration of Swarth- more College. DeiBn Hunt For more than a. decade Everett L. Hunt has held the position of Dean of Men. During that time he has carried a great burden of duties covering such college problems as admissions, advising students, fulfilling the function of liaison between the student body on the one hand and the administration and Board of Managers on the other, and directing col- lege disciplinary actions. The spirit of conciliation imputed to these activities by Dean Hunt con- tributes immeasurably to the smooth functioning of the administration by making an atmosphere of informal cooperation prevail in all work involving both the administration and the various bodies of student government. There are other sides to Mr. Hunt which are not so well known. One Is the academician, the teacher of Milton and literary criticism. The other is the lover of Wyoming to whom few experiences are comparable to that of a pack, trip in the Grand Tetons. The combination of all these attributes has given him his important role at Swarthmore. Mieawu Cabbs The graduation of this year ' s senior class marks a special anniversary for Miss Cobbs. Both the Class of 1949 and the Dean of Women were freshmen at Swarthmore four years ago. In that time Miss Cobbs has worked hard for her newest degree, and is now a much admired member of the college administration. As Dean of Women her duties are widely diver- sified. Her most Immediate concern is with the women students to whom she is a willing and cap- able adviser. She interviews prospective students, serves on a number of college committees, and finds time to be hostess at Benjamin West House teas for freshman girls. Far from being the literary Southern type, al- .though possessed of its virtues — charm, sympathy, and a soft voice — Miss Cobbs in the active pro- tagonist of a living and progressive philosophy .of education. Her firm conviction that a major part of education goes on outside the class room makes Miss Cobbs an invaluable asset to the college. Adwnini James A. Perkins JAMES A. PERKINS, Vice-President. General alterego to Mr. Nason, Mr. Perkins heads the college campaign drive and generally keeps alumni in touch with the college. A graduate of the class of ' 34, Mr. Perkins majored in poli sci and roomed across the hall from the new philosophy professor, John Nason. Just a shift, he smiles, from Wharton A. to Parrish B. JOHN M. MOORE, Registrar and Associate Dean; Keen, precise, thorough, John Moore joined the Dean ' s Office in the chaotic college-admissions days of 1946. Although his workday is split into three halves, part-time teaching. Registrar duties, and veteran ' s affairs, he succeeds some- how in maintaining an air of unhurried calm. To each of his several jobs he brings the intellectual equipment of a scholar and a sincere concern for personal problems. JEPTHA J. CARRELL, Assistant Dean of Men; first came to Swarthmore as an Open Scholar. After a stint in the Marine Corps, and more undergraduate work at Franklin and Marshall College, he returned to Swarthmore in 1946 to assume the duties of Assistant Dean. In addition to a plethora of duties, he has found time to coach Freshman soccer and baseball, and to get an M.A. from Penn. John M. Moore Jeptha J. Carrell i siriBtian •- v v.. ALICE L MORAN MANDLEBAUM, Associate Dean of Women. As second in command to Dean Cobbs, Mrs. Mandlebaum interviewed prospective freshmen, and acted as vocational advisor to women. Her charming manner and entertaining sense of humor won her many friends, hfowever, after four years here, Mrs. Mandlebaum left for a new career — marriage. We wish her well. J. DEMARIS AFFLECK CARRELL, Assistant Dean of Wonnen knows Swarthmore college life from both sides. Not long ago a member of the student body, she is now Assistant Dean of Women. In this position she advises the student government organizations and acts as advisor to freshman women. Demmie recently married Jep Car- rell thus making deanship a family tradition. CHARLES G. THATCHER, Comptroller. The training Mr. Thatcher received here as engineer (class of 1912) comes in handy where money matters are concerned. Budget, Salaries, departmental expenditures, maintenance and operation are all part of his job. In addition, such considerations as faculty housing and the financing of student activities require all the tact and quiet thorough- ness for which Mr. Thatcher is well known. ?

Dickinson. 28 The 1948 Student Council was under the leadership of Coke Prentice and Ed Bush, with Polly Pinsker assuming the secretarial duties. Much of the time of the Council was consumed with routine, seemingly unimportant, matters, such as selection of committees, approval of the budget, and appointment of student representatives to various conferences. Among its more enjoyable accomplishments were the extensio.i of breakfast hours for Freshmen, and the opening of all dorms to both sexes on Sunday afternoons. The Council may also be credited, however, with a few more glam- orous undertakings. It made a valuable contribution, for example, toward student-alumni relationships by invit- ing alumni to sit in on Council meetings. Both groups were pleasantly surprised to learn that the proverbial chasm between them is not an unbridgeable one. The Council was instrumental, furthermore. In placing student members on the Curriculum Committee to aid the faculty in mapping out Swarthmore ' s academic future. The Council established, as well, ' a Course-Rating Com- mittee which, though still in its embryonic stages, will, it is hoped, offer helpful criticisms to the professors on the courses being presented. Finally, the Council was instrumental in establishing the new Student Employment Office. This office, which co-ordinates student employment both on and off campus, has had a very successful first year under its student managers, Chuck Stabler and Keeny Scott. : The new Council which look office in February was the first to be elected under the new system of rotating tenure. Five of the members are to be replaced at the end of the semester, while the other five Councilmen will continue in their places during the first semesier of next year. For the present term Zeke Montgomery was elected chairman, Ralph Roy, vice-chairman, and Nancy hleffer- nan, secretary-treasurer. Many of the tasks which occupied the attention of this new Council early in the semester consisted of bringing to a close projects originally undertaken by the previous Council. The most important of these problems concerned the administration policy on Freshman rooming. Later the Council set about, with moderate success, to estab- lish a program of joint activity on the part of itself and the fraternities looking to the elminiatlon of fraternity mem- bership requirements which discriminate on the basis of race or religion. Most of the time of the Council was occupied by informal cooperation with the administration on such problems as improving the collection programs, revising the system of faculty advisors, formulating more explicitly the procedure of the Student Affairs Committee, and civilizing the dining room. The Council was given Invaluable help in the administra- tion of student affairs by the Budget Committee, the Commons Committee, Elections Committee, and the Com- munity Service Committee.

The opinions of the women are voiced in the hall meetings and carried from there to the bi- weekly meetings of the Executive Committee by the hall presidents. The hall meetings also serve as occasions for the election of WSGA officers, and for planning such activities as open houses, and inter-hall basketball. At the higher level, the Executive Committee meetings, any problems concerning the feminine part of student life are discussed. Recommendations from the hall presidents and committee heads are considered , and voted upon. Thus the hall presidents and committee heads serve an important function of administration and liaison. Through them the Executive Committee and the college administra- tion are kept informed of any grieva ices or suggestions from the women, while the former are able to relay to the students any information concerning new privileges or edicts. Much of the work of WSGA is carried on through committees. The elected heads of these groups choose their members from among those students who have stated their preference for such work. There are four of these permanent committees: Personnel, Conduct, Vo- cational, and Somerville. 30 The purpose of the Personnel Committee is to improve the relations among students. This group, in conjunction with Book and Key, is in charge of freshman week each Fall, as well as of choosing and supervising the freshman counsellors. Sponsoring student-faculty teas has been one of its major projects. Recently these have been held quite successfully in the Manager ' s Parlors. The Conduct Committee takes charge of enforcing WSGA rules. At the weekly meetings members discuss all cases of transgression and inflict suitable penalties. Any general problem of discipline is subject to discussion. In addition to all this work Conduct also supervises the annual freshman rules test. The Activities Committee keeps a record of the extra- curricular activities of each woman student. These are filed by the committee and frequently used for reference, to make certain, for example, that no one is carrying too many duties. Promoting student-alumnae relations In the main func- tion of the Somerville Committee. This group not only holds teas throughout the year, but is, in addition, in charge of the Somerville weekend in April. Last Fall, before college opened, teas were held for Incoming fresh- men and alumnae In several large cities. Thus WSGA, In close cooperation with the Student Council and the Men ' s Executive Committee, helps to bring the interests of the individual student to the fore.

The WAA council is elected yearly by members, for these purposes: to promote athletic programs encouraging the interests of women students and suitable to the needs and capa- cities of students; to instill enjoyment in sports which will continue after college; to promote intramural and inter- collegiate sports; to uphold good sportsmanship. Among the first of WAA ' s activities last Spring was a cabin weeiiend, when interested girls went to the WAA cabin to rough it. Later the annual Spring picnic was held, after the traditional faculty-varsity softball game. During the Spring term, formation swimming was added to the roster of varsity sports, as a result of the hard work of an enthusiastic group. G§v£mp Standing: M. Pfau, J. Favorite, K. Scott. Sitting: C. Stein, A. Mount, S. Mitsuto. In the Fall there was much for the Council to do. The girls served lunch to teams in the Intercollegiate and Middle Atlantic hockey tournaments, both held at Swarth- more this year. The hockey banquet, at the close of the season, was greatly enlivened by the irrepressible referee Chalikian. The Outing Club, long-time protege of the Association, was cut loose from WAA ' s financial apron strings. The Council sponsored co-ed badminton. Several amendments to the organization ' s constitution were made, altering the point system for awards. Inter-hall basketball was a great success, team members and spectators alike enthusiastic. New sleds, to be used by all, were bought, athough WAA failed to provide snow. Back Row: J. Hostetter, P. Edwards, E. Jones, A. Arnold, P. Lacl ey, P. Peirce. Middle Row: M. Allen, D. Brodie, M.

Running four of the meets on a new 3.2 mile home course, the boys showed up best on their invasions of the foreign terrains of Gettysburg and Lehigh. Swarthmore conquered Lafayette 17-37, and then captured a hard-fought 26-29 victory over Franklin and Marshall. A drizzly Saturday saw the Garnets massacre their opposition on the Gettysburg battle- grounds in an I 8-42 count. A mid-week jaunt to Bethlehem and a perfect score of 15-40 in the rain showed Lehigh its place. Lincoln University visited the campus only to return home on the short end of a 20-35 score. A second place out of a field of fifteen in the Middle Atlantics followed, and that left only the hHaverford meet. But the Main- liners were a strong and determined team ' , while Swarthmore ' s number one man. Captain Alden Stevenson, was missing because of an ankle injury. Captain-elect Bill Battin, who had finished seventh in the Middle Atlantics, chased Jim Grosholz, the meet winner and record holder, but was unable to conquer him. Ed Stabler came through with a spectacular third place and was followed by Ralph Cheyney in fourth, hlaverford ' s Dick Rankin beat John Spaulding for the fifth by feet, but the Scarlet and Black ' s had already lost the meet. The Malnliner ' s trip had ended in a 26-30 failure. The season had been completed unmarned, the winning streak extended to ten. The hlood Trophy had been started on its way, and Coach Miller and Captain Stevenson had been rewarded with their well-deserved victory. With the entire squad returning next year, Swarthmore is assured of another cross-country record. 94 - .r _S ' •Oin 3313 Smart Ball Hanaimg i lfc . ♦ « 10 I. sine ' - ' H.. .„,Hed and sur- SlmePlayMark s, Ued by Clock Fnotball Inaugural ' J j 28-28 UeamocK Gary Stars ' -B 33 38 38 3g gl 3. f_ t| J8 30 ' 29 I S. 35 37] 24127 .19 18 - 13 i - f Football V j Oj A renaissance In football interest and spirit distinguished the 1948 football season. Both student body and players reverted to the classical pre-war forms of expression at foot- ball contests although the team itself specialized in a modern art, the persistent use of the forward pass. There were several reasons for this recrudescence. With two of the undergraduate classes peopled by students of a younger average age than the previous three or four classes, a general increase of interest in all forms of undergraduate activity was to be observed. But equally important was the fact that the onlooker ' : were given something of interest to watch. A team which produced a rather inferior record was nevertheless more exciting than any outfit since the days of the V-12 when some of Penn ' s first-stringers were stationed here as members of the Swarthmore student body. What won the hearts of the local fans was the ability of the team to make long and spectacular gains and hold its own in the scoring column. The team always gave the impression that it might explode and bowl over a highly favored opponent, and yet it never quite managed. Like all Swarthmore teams it suffered from a certain local epidemic known as Depletion of Personnel. The squad had the nucleus of a potentially powerful outfit, but was woe- fully weak in replacements. The unavoidable incurrence of Back Row: R. Bissell, R. Esrey, D. Waiters. A. Amussen, R. Hall, R.

Brlckner 95 fatigue and Injuries took Its toll and the final record was correspondingly poor. With such conditions forced upon him, Lew Elverson made excellent use of his manpower resources. His first move was to Introduce a new formation. This consisted of moving one .of the tailbacks of the standard single wing formation well out to the left and moving the bucking back up a little closer to the line than usual. The forma- tion thereby had the spread which permitted a large number of reverses as well as fairly easy access to downfield pass receiving positions for the two wing backs. Fur- thermore, some T-formatlon plays could be engineered by the bucking back. Dick Esrey was assigned as wing back out on the left side where he could employ his ability to run In the open and to catch passes. Ray Posel and Phil Brickner, both being primarily power runners, held the bucking back positions at one time or another. Bill Albertson was effective as a reverse running wingback when his blockers could give him some support and his play wasn ' t telegraphed to opposing backer-ups. The responsibility of running the team from the tailback position fell upon the shoulders of Sam Gary, whose sensational performance In the opening game caused more than one metropolitan newspaper to revise Its opinion of the Swarthmore club. Appearing for the first time In his four year career at Swarthmore, Sam showed, along with natural field generalship, the ability to run, to punt, and most Important of all, to pass. Coach Elverson also delved Into all the possible uses of a tall end named Dick Hall, whose list of achievements paralleled those of the great Don Hutson. As an offen- sive end, he showed the uncanny knack of being able to pull In a pass while surrounded by leaping defenders. Like Hutsofi, he was stationed at right half-back where his speed and long arms proved valuable either on pass defense or defense against rushing In addition, he was used on end-around and end-around pass plays which netted long gains. And to do Hutson one better, he acted as safety man on kick-offs and punts and at one point against Wesleyan went eighty yards to score. To offer some relief In the center of the line, Elverson rotated Haines Dickinson, Bob Asplundh and Chuck Valsing with Dickinson playing both center and guard. Ev Burn, who started the season as a tackle, was used as a defensive end In the latter part of the season with good results, and Bruce Isaacs saw little offensive while he Som Gary and Dick Hall Honored on All-State Team 96 , T ipk Hall two o£ I Hall .rso it depen.aMelAU.o,... lV e Bears pre- about - rtnTt ore ' ' ' l ir pun W- S - ,. , lov Vdders ' % ' 48 victory ■ , , rdav in a Sa ' gar e Octo- , to Gary at CoUege toer 23- acted as a superlative line backer. Frank Hege, Bob Forney, Norm Green, and Tom Vilushis rounded out a capable first team line. To get the best use out of his small but talented group of regular men, Elverson devised a good repertoire of trick reverses, less subtle power plays, and fairly simple but very effective pass plays. The assortment increased as the season pro- gressed and reached fulfillment in the Haverford game when about twenty different running plays were used, including Hall ' s end around and Gary ' s favorite feat of prestidigitation, the behind-the-back handoff to Esrey. Defense was the team ' s great weakness. The middle of the line usually held up well when both Isaacs and Ray Posel were available, which was not often enough, but until Burn came along, the team was very susceptible to end runs led by three or four man intereference. On pass defense Swarthmore met no opponent but Drexel that could complete a pass with any degree of regularity and for the most part kept out of trouble in that department, hiaverford, with their star freshman passer hobbled, nevertheless did manage to complete several passes at opportune moments, but in that game it was more the timeliness than the frequency of completion that hurt. With all its troubles, the team nonetheless stood well up among the small colleges as an offensive unit. The major reason for the high standing was of course Gary, but receivers hiall, Esrey, and Albertson were well above average. In yards gained on the ground, the team did not get rolling until the Ursinus game, when Phil Brickner began some successful line plunging. Albertson ' s reverse did not begin to gain steadily until even later in the season. Still, Swarthmore had developed its running attack sufficiently by the time of the hiaverford game so that it could mix up its plays with impunity. Gary ' s efforts earned him honorable mention on the All-East and Little All-America teams and a second team slot on the All State Eleven. Dick hfall was also given honorable mention on the All East and Little All American teams. Gary placed second among the nation ' s small college passers with 93 completions in 153 attempts for a .608 percentage, and gained 1218 yards thereby, hfall and Dick Esrey were ranked in the first ten among small college receivers. Each scored nine touchdowns.

Although they themselves were unable to score more than two goals per game, Coach Bob Dunn s booters succeeded In holding their opponents scoreless In the first six games. They allowed two goals to be scored in the next two contests which combined outstanding teams, Navy and Haverford, and bad weather. The season ended dramatically, though unfavorably, for Swarthmore as they were de- feated 2-1 by Bucknell in the play-off game of the Middle Atlantic Conference. The Dunnmen got off to an auspicious start by defeating an agressive Penn team, 2-0. It was necessary to play extra periods against a solid Princeton defense but the game ended as it has started 0-0. The offense clicked again in a 2-0 victory over Lafayette but, as it was to be observed in the next five games as well, it was the defense which made. the difference. Captain Chris Pederson and Bob Brown, fullbacks, combined with Pott, in the goal, to make the Swarthmore defense almost impenetrable. The Swarth- more halfbacks came in the lime-light against Muhlenburg and Ursinus as Swarthmore defeated both, 1-0. Although presented with many scoring opportunities, the forwards were unable to score more than once in either game. Making it six unscored on games in a row the entire Swarthmore team clicked to drub a hard kicking Lehigh eleven, 2-0. The game was marked by hard play throughout, dominated by the never-ending agresslve- ness of the big three defensemen and the hard driving shots by the entire forward line. Annapolis Kicks I-O for Victory In Slippery, Hard-fought IHatcn Dunnmen Down Muhlenberg; Hicih Wind Defies H ' -d jSn In a hard fought confest on a wet, rainy Annapolis field the Garnet dropped their first game, I -0, in a seesaw battle which wasn ' t decided until late in the fourth quarter. The Navy team, picked second in the nation in 1948, played excellent ball throughout. The Garnet defense was scored on just once more during the regular season, in the hHaverford game, an exciting contest played before 500 standing spectators in a heavy drizzle. The Ford ' s scored on a fast play at the beginning of the first quarter, but were nosed out 2-1 as Swarthmore scored two goals in the fourth period, in what was probably the most tense soccer game to be witnessed by Swarth- more rooters in many years. By their victory over Haverford the Dunnmen became undisputed cham- pions of the southern district of the Middle Atlantics and were thus called upon to play the Bucknell Bisons for the championship of the conference. As had been the case in the last two games, the contest was played on a slick, wet field, an apparent jinx to the Swarthmore defenders. The Bisons triumphed 2-1 as both sides fought hard down to the final whistle. Other than the team ' s o utstanding victories in 1948 is to be noted the exceptional performance of Captain Chris Pederson, Swarthmore ' s right full- back, who was chosen for the third straight year as an All-Amerlcan, being first team the last two years and second team when only a sophomore, hiis easy, powerful kicks, and his incomparable finesse on the soccer field shall always stand out In the minds of those who have seen him play, hlis left hand man, Bob Brown, was outstanding because of his driving surges in defense of the goal; while goalie Roger Pott is acclaimed by coach Dunn as potentially the finest goalie he has ever coached, hialfbacks Heinz Valtin and captain-elect Dave Doehlert played excellent soccer throughout the sea- son, demonstrating a steady brand of ball which, though unnoticed often, contributed greatly to the season ' s success. Hub-man, Steve Clark, dis- played a tremendous amount of energy, speed, and reach, at center-halfback. The line play was sparked by Buck Shane ' s long crosses and hard shots by Dick Willmott and All Al Yasir, who together netted more than half of Swarthmore ' s goals. George Place, Bill Spock and Phil Kniskern alternated at the insides and contributed the drive so necessary for a winning team. T-h. Vai+in, Pederson Jy tots «f M„; fee . e.

The team did the unexpected and defeated Beaver and Ursinus, both colleges with phys. ed. majors. They lost to Temple and Penn. the two strong Phila. teams, but the score does not tell the whole story. In both games Swarthmore forwards were attacking much more than the opponents were attacking, but just could not score when the opportunities arose. The other three teams beaten were Rosemont, Chestnut hiill, and Drexel. The season ended with a loss to Bryn Mawr. The final total was 5 wins and 3 losses for the season. At the All-College tournament Swarthmore placed five players on the second team, which in turn played at the Middle Atlantic tourna- ment. This latter tournament was composed of club teams from Phila. and suburbs, N.

Men s Basketball The Swarthmore College basketball team was a potent foe for regional small college teams In the 1948-49 season. It tied for the championship of the Middle Atlantic States Athletic Conference, losing out in the play-off to a powerful Pennsyl- vania Military College by a margin of two points. Its overall seasonal record was thirteen wins against eight losses; the majority of the losses incurred at the hands of larger schools. The Garnet ' s best showing against major opposition was against a heavily favored Army team, whom it battled down to the last few minutes before losing out. A decisive element in the team ' s success was the successful application of a shifting man to man defense which kept oppos- ing fives continually off balance. The result was surprisingly low scores for the opposition and a minimum of fouls com- mitted by Swarthmore. Offensively, Swarthmore was definitely a one man team. Incomparable Jim Reilly provided the scoring pyrotechnics in every game, hlis left hand hook shots and deft foul shooting netted him 51 I points for the season and placed him at the top of the Philadelphia regional scorers, hie was also awarded the Philadelphia player of the week award for his great showing against Army. No little credit for Swarthmore ' s early season successes must be given to Sam Gary, Captain, and non- pariel floorman. tHis steady play, coupled with a continual bretic- 101 1 1 HbJ B .n H H i ' jj B ■■sp r Rellly Hall Jump! command of the situation at all times welded the team into a co-ordinate unit in the court. The unity which he imparted to the team was noticeably lacking after his graduation in February. Two freshmen, Dick hfall and Roger Pott, though short on experience, gave Swarthmore an advantage in height which it had lacked for many years. Acting both as scorers and decoys they were especially effective in drawing out the opposing defense. Their continued improvement as the season progresses gave great promise of the future. Both have sharp eyes, and all is needed is more floor experience.

The concentration of play inside the foul circle through most of the season made double-teaming of Reilly much easier and aided opponent ' s de- fensive strategy immeasurably. The ability of Reilly to shoot from virtually unguardable positions kept Swarthmore ' s offensive rolling. The situation, reduced to its essential, was one in which Swarthmore presented a team on the defense, and an assortment of individuals on the offense. This latter characteristic was especially true after the graduation of Gary. The season pointed up one outstanding consistency; that was the ability to win close games. They lost only one close one in a season replete with thrillers. The team won by large margins over inferior opponents; and lost by equally large margins to teams above their competitive level. The excellent condition of the squad proved its worth as they put together many last period rallies to pull games out of the fire. Swarthmore was, on the whole, a last half team, slow in adapting itself to the opposing style of play, but putting on the pressure as the game progressed. The greatest attribute of the squad was its defensive play, and offensive ability in the clutch. Its most notable deficiency was lack of speed and most Important of all, offensive co-ordination.

With five hold- overs from last year ' s varsity providing experience, and promising freshmen candidates, the squad fboked forward to the season with high hopes and a victory gleam in their eyes. The first game was an easy one for the Garnettes, as they vanquished Drexel to the tune of 29-15. A smooth passing attack and a tight defense s pelled the victory. The next two games brought much stiffer competition, with Chestnut Hill and Rosemont extending Swarthmore to the last minutes before going down to defeat. Chestnut hiill led throughout the game, but in the last minutes Lucy Handwerk ' s set shots put the Garnet out in front 29-25. The Rosemont game was another thriller with the issue again in doubt until the last quarter. Lucy again provided the margin of victory with her set shot specialty; fijial score, Swarthmore 3 1 , Rosemont 28. Defeat met Swarthmore in their next three games as Ursinus eked out a three point victory, Temple triumphed by seven points, and Penn closed with a rush to win by five points. All three games were nip and tuck, with the lead changing hands many time. Proof was seen of Swarthmore ' s improvement in the fact that these three teams beat the Garnettes easily last year. The se ason closed with the traditional game against Bryn Mawr. Smarting under the last three defeats, the girls unleashed a savage passing, and sharp- shooting attack, that, coupled with a tight defense, completely humbled the Mainliners by the score of 53-28. Pat Meyer, Swarthmore ' s high scorer for the season dropped in twenty-nine points. The return of this year ' s entire varsity and capable reserves will make the Garnettes a powerful foe for Philadelphia area schools in the 1949-50 season.

Budwnintan Swarthmore ' s most successful and probably least noticed varsity team con- tinued its winning way this winter to round off its eleventh victorious season The 1949 season was characterized by 5-0 wins. Of the 54 games played, 48 were won, most of them by comfortable margins. Five matches were played — with Drexel, Chestnut Hill, Penn, Bryn Mawr, and Rosemont. The first four were won 5-0, while the Rosemont score was 3-2. Jean Abbott, Margie Hench, and Claire Croft held down the single positions, with Marge Davis subbing for Margie in the Rosemont match. Bobby Jamison and Jane De Vries started the season as the firs!- doubles com- bination, with Hope Sieck and Peg Allen playing second doubles. This was the line-up for the Drexel and Chestnut Hill matches. For the Penn and Bryn Mawr contests, Coach May Parry moved Marge Davis up from the jayvee to play first doubles with Bobby, and Jane joined Hope on the second doubles. Marge moved up to third singles in the final battle with Rosemont, so Bobby and Hope played in the top doubles slot and Jane and Peg played second doubles. The singles players outscored their opponts by 5-1 ratio, the first doubles team by a 3-1, and the second doubles by less than 2-1. Several of the team members entered the Philadelphia Badminton Associa- tion, Class A and B Tournaments held in March and April. In the B Tournament, Peg Allen and Jeny Haas, after a hard struggle, were defeated. Clair Croft and Bobby Jamison fared better, going all the way to the finals, where they were finally beaten. In the Class A Tournament, Jean Abbott and Bobby Jamison were defeated in the first round of the doubles play. Bobby was eliminated in the second round of the singles by the number two seeded player, while Jean, playing her usual superb game, went all the way to the semi-finals, where she was downed by the number one seeded player. This year ' s varsity team will lose three members when Claire Croft, Jane De Vries, and Bobby Jamison graduate in June. But with such capable players remaining as Jean Abbott, Margie Hench, and Marge Davis, the team looks forward to another good season next winter, when victory string number twelve will be added to an impressive record.

Under the direction of coach Jim MacAdoo the team tied for first place in the league by winning five meets while loosing but one, that with Lehigh. In the Middle Atlantic Conference Swarthmore swimmers proved themselves well; but the team was relegated to fifth place in the championship meet because of the freshman ineligibility rule which prevented the team from benefiting from the feats of the newcomers. The most remarkable part of the season was the record performance turned in by Bob Dippy, Bruce Graves, and Dave Potter. Bob Dippy broke his own 220 and 440 yard freestyle records a number of times, while Bruce Graves took some seconds off his old 150 yard backstroke mark. The sensation of the season was Dave Potter, a freshman, who broke the record for the 100 yard freestyle. ' He won the 220 yard freshman race at the Middle Atlantic championships, setting a record time that was faster than the record of the varsity class. Unfortunately, this accomplishment did not figure in the team standing. Many unusual incidents occurred at our meets both at home and away. The Brooklyn College squad was in an automobile accident before the meet, while at Lehigh we suffered some frozen toes. The most exciting meet by far, however, was the one with Delaware. The loss of Jim Cox had set us back at the start; but our breast- strokers, Chang and Strauss, turned the tide with a thrilling last lap finish to the final relay enabling us to carry the day. Plentiful college enthusiasm made the home meets well attended. As a high point of the years aquatic events, the team and coach MacAdoo played host to the Inter- scholastic hiigh School championships, at which the famous Joe Verdeur gave an exhibition. For next year ' s season the team will lose through graduation only its co-captain Dean Peabody, our diver Lee Wentling, and the senior manager Wynn Bailey. Because of this the co-captains for the coming season, Bruce Graves and Bob Dippy, will be left with a full and experienced squad.

IVamen s Snviwnwning The Garnet swimmers ended up thisyear with the impressive record of twenty-two consecutive victories in dual meets over a period of three years. They also gained the Eastern Inter Collegiate title, and placed first in the Eastern Regional Telegriaphlcs. They finished third in the National Telegraphies, beaten only by Purdue and Michigan State. The team is essentialy the same as it was last year with the addition of two freshman: Bee Crookston who can swim the backstroke, breast- stroke, and the free-style with equal versatility, and Jill Morrel, an excellent diver defeated only once and then on a strange board. During the year various t.mes have been cut, many old Swarthmore records being among the old clockings. The medley relay realm of Pcnfield, Eble, and Beebe tied the new national record for sixty yards in .34.6. Barb also won the forty yard breaststroke with a new low of .28.8. At the Intercollegiate meet Laura McClellan set the record of 1.0 . 3 for the one hundred yard free-style while Penny lowered both her forty and sixty yard times with the backstroke. Coach Dinny Rath is not worried about next year in spite of the graduation of two of the team s pace-setters, Selma Eble and Barb Beebe. Most of the rest of the varsity have at least two more years, and she has a strong J-V with which to work. In several of the varsity meets J-V swimmers have been used to give them the experience and they have usually placed. The second of the medley relay teams entered in the National Telegraphies came in third, and the J-V.free- st le relay team captured a third in the Regional Telegraphies. Next year should see another undefeated season. Go! 107 Suzanne Anderson, Ton! Avery, Anne Buel, Margery Davis. Judy Demond.

Farwnatian Snviwnwn ing Formation Swimming came into its own a year ago when it was granted varsity status. A unique group in that it writes and directs each of its performances, it has brought its second season to a successful close under the watchful eyes of Dinny Rath and co-captains Eddie Nye and Joyce Kimball. The first performance was given at Hutchinson Pool at the University of Pennsylvania for a regional meeting of athletic directors. The program, the dress rehearsal of which was given in the men ' s pool for the entire student body, consisted of a square dance and a waltz. The group then undertook to write a full length aquatic pantomime to the musical score of Gaiete Parisienne — the familiar story of an afternoon in a French cafe. The group as a whole performed three large synchronized formations and several solos, duets, and ensembles running from sedate waltzes to can-cans. The performance was given in the men ' s pool, glamorously lighted for the occasion and was so enthusiastically received by the audience that next year v ill undoubtedly see many more of these pro.ductions. 108 H-i: Madem Dance The Modern Dance Club operates throughout the year despite seasonal shifts of personnel. Under the leader- ship of Miss Janet Scanttlebury the group formulated the Hamburg Show dance, then began composing for the spring demonstrations. The main impetus to the spring project was the decision of the Penn, Temple, Bryn Mawr, and Swarthmore groups to give programs at Bryn Mawr and Penn. Swarthmore decided on a luite called Cutting Collec- tion, interpretive musical moods in- dicating the personalities of those people playing records in Cutting. The content runs from Gregorian chants to selections from Bartok. The group acquainted the college community with their work in inter- pretive dance idiom at a collection program in May. This included some demonstration of techniques and original dances by the group. Standing: J. Scantlebury, Director, B. Wolff, L. Eshleman. Bentley, N. McDaniel, M. Miller. Frank.

Valleyhall In its first year of varsity status, the girls ' volleyball team turned out a creditable performance with four wins and two losses. Losing their first game to Temple — who could beat a team of phys ed majors? — the girls soon hit their stride when a combined co-ed team beat a Bryn Mawr-Haverford combination. They went on to take over the Swarth- more hfigh team, trounce Bryn Mawr a second time, and crush Penn State. Winding up with a DU challenge game, the girls found that their superior skill couldn ' t quite make up for the boy ' s brawn and height, and lost by the slim margin of 21-18. The JV ' s had a parallel season — losing to Temple, but coming out way on top with Bryn Mawr and Swarthmore hiigh. It seems that this team ' s en- thusiasm and record should win for it equal recognition with the other varsity sports. 109 Ursinus Wrestlers Defeat Swarthmon Though they put up a h lost a tight contest 20 to 16 t at the Field House.

The Garnet wrestlers started the season most favorably, calmly murdering P.M.C. 33-2. They followed that up by avenging a 1948 defeat at the hands of Delaware, whipping the hHens, 23-13. Inspired by two victories the wrestlers took on Johns hHopkins in their first home match and were soundly trounced, 28-8. Temple followed with a 23-12 victory over the Garnet, and Drexel succeeded in gaining an 18-18 stalemate three days later. The grapplers took a close one from Lafayette, 18-15, and dropped the following match to Ursinus, 20-16. The outstanding member of the Swarthmore wrestling team was un- doubtedly Bob Bach, a first year coach at Swarthmore. Recognition is due also to Bill Spangler, Senior Manager for excellent work on publicity. At 121, 128, and heavy-weight the Garnet was very weak, winning only four matches throughout the year in the three weights combined. 1 he team ' s main strength lay in the middle weights. Captain Ben Fusaro, Bob Shaffner, and Ken Ruhl, the three returning lettermen, were all consistent winners while Phil Swayne, a newcomer, went undefeated in eight matches, picking up a total of 38 out of a possible 40 points. Ruhl dropped only one match and in his remaining five matches gained three pins and two decisions. Capt. Fusaro racked up four pins and two decisions while losing two by decision. Shaffner won four decisions and one pin while losing, as did Fusaro, to superior John hHopkins and Temple wrestlers on points. He was pinned by Captain Jim Cox of Ursinus, but the following week decisioned Light-Foot of Haverford 10-3. Phil Brick- ner, a newcomer, wrestled seven matches including two draws, two decisions won, and three lost. .10 .tii ' TW by ' 22 S V Olf ck Ro« Brickner, S. C. Smith, D. Work. Middle Van Deusen, H.

Orrick Metcalfe showed great improvement, and won many valuable points for the team. Dashmen Al Van Deusen and John Bozic were closely matched throughout the year, and Van Deusen. managed to bring his time down to a good 10.2 in the century. The distance runners, however, contributed the most to a successful season. Iron-man Frank Nicholson, who during the previous season had set the college record for the 2-mile run at 9:45, displayed his ability with fine times in the shorter distances. Alden Stevenson, a clever miler, fin- ished the season with good performances in the two-mile run. The biggest and most welcome surprise was the running of sophomore Bill Battin who, with a minimum of previous experience, set a new Swarthmore mile record in 4:27. Bill Tietz showed good form in his specialty, the 880, and looked almost as strong in the 440 and mile. The distance group was rounded out by Rick Kozicki, Ralph Cheyney and Gundar Frank; Kozicki and Cheyney often pressed the winners. The field-events men failed to match the individual performances of the runners showed good balance and scored high in their events. Broad-jumper Sam Gary was undefeated in dual and triangular competition. Gordon Mochel, Heinz Valtin and Ray Johnson often rotated as the winner of the pole vault. Ray Posel won or placed second in the shotput in all the meets, and was runnerup in the Middle Atlantlcs. Dave Work, with a toss of 175 feet, finally broke the javiin record which he had been flirting with for a long time. Despite its undefeated season, the team could finish no better than fourth in the Middle Atlantic Championhsips, principally because fresh- men were ineligible and because several field event men failed to perform as expected. Nevertheless, the season came to a successful conclusion when the Garnet team gained a victory in the Neighborhood Meet, when it defeated, among others, St. Joseph, the Middle Atlantic Champions. ; Jicholson 111 eyed to M„l .

Problems of a serious nature cropped up at the begin- ning of the season when Si Goudsmit and Pete Kaiser, the latter co-captain and star defenseman, felt they had to leave the team to give more attention to the books. These deficiencies, and that made by the loss of the team ' s experienced goalie were partially made up for. Coach Blake instigated some personnel maneuvering. Walter Cosinuke was moved up into a midfield positio n. Ed Stabler, a freshman who had never played lacrosse before soon developed into a capable goalie and took over that position, hianke, an experienced attackman, was moved upfront. One other move re- sulted from this shuffle as Herb Frost was shifted back from attack to strengthen the second midfield. All these moves paid off. Cosinuke was much more at home in front of the goal than behind it on the attack. Passing was easier for him and his greatest strengths, dodging, and shooting, were given the opportunity to show themselves. hHis speed and doggedness in ragging offensive men were qualities too valuable to waste in one half of the field. Stabler improved in the goal as the season went on and began to turn in amazing saves on bounce shots. Hanke was back in his element on the attack. A natural feeder with a good shot and with dodging ability, J ohn worked very well with Metz and Piper and the three men in the midfield. What made him particu- larly valuable was his ability to take the ball on a four-on-three fast break and pass to the Swarthmore man who was free. A maneuver of that sort demands that the passer be aware of three things in three different places at once, namely, the ball, the defensman covering and the free attackman. No other Swarthmore attackman could do this with any degree of consistency, and probably more 112 goals are scored, or can be scored in this way than any other. Herb Frost fit in well with Bud Ludeman and Burt Levering on a mid- field that improved as the season went on until each man scored at least one goal in the CCNY game. The first team midfield was the backbone of the team. Consisting of tlie oldest men on the squad (and in fact reputed to be the oldest midfield in the game) the trio comprised probably the three best conditioned and most spirited members of the squad. Captain Jim Bowditch was an all round player whose agility and cleverness made him an excellent opportunist. Jim Kirkhoff and Walter Cosinuke were the other two members. Although this was only his second season of lacrosse, (he took up the game at the age of twenty four) Kirkhoff could out run any man on the team. Although never spectacular. Kirk could be depended on to be in the right place in the right time. Cosinuke was high scorer for the season. Defensively, the team was somewhat handicapped. The loss of Pete Kaiser was a heavy blow. The situation was made worse by the fact that hialnes Dickinson, hobbled by a very bad knee injury picked up in football, was unable to play at full effectiveness. John hienchel was a dependable regular and Bob Bissell showed great promise. Tom Vllushls, Dick hlurd and Chris Pederson were all solid men, but somewhat susceptible to the subtleties of hlopkins. Army, and RPI stickhandling. On attack fHanke was supplemented by Rush Metz (subsequently Captain Metz) and John Piper. Metz, a fine dodger, was not re- quired to pursue his specialty quite so frequently as he was the previous year, because of better balance on the attack and turned into a very good feeder. John Piper stood on the receiving end of most of the passes on fast breaks and his accurate shot made him a pretty sure thing at such times. The team went through a typical schedule of one sided games, either suffering at the hands of Army and Hopkins, or administering punishment to Penn, West Chester, Stevens, and so forth. Only the RPI games was expected to be close and Swarthmore was conceded an outside chance to win. Victory would have been particularly sweet since RPI had been picked to represent the United States in a tour of Great Britain during the summer. Those who favored the Baltimore quick-passing style as better representative of American lacrosse evidenced some prejudice against the dodging game of the Engineers. As it turned out, our team lost by a narrow margin and did not feel that it had played to its own satisfaction. The Loyola game proved some consolation, for the Greyhounds, al- though from a small school, were a Baltimore lacrosse team and an improved one at that. In this game Swarthmore did a business-like job, putting them away by an 8-2 count. Only the City College game, which was in reality an unpremedi- tated, but pretty well Improvised slaughter, provided the fans with real excitment, or more properly, amusement. Time after time the pent up emotions of a Beaver player would send him to correctional confinment until at one point, four men were languishing in the pillory at the same time. Two Garnet men, Walter Cosinuke and Jim Bowditch earned places on the South All-Star team and played in the game at Baltimore after the season was over. 113 O team V f. swartWnf °f Penn defeated Sw JJ frcool and Musse e ' ' ' oU Then ttie v, r ° eteat Bryn to KoeWer, « .

HVawnen s Lacrasse Swarthmore was one of the first colleges in the area to organize a women ' s varsity lacrosse team, and since that time, three years ago, the enthusiasum has spread. Nearly thirty girls turned out for the squad this year, including seven returning varsity members from last year ' s team, and eleven freshmen, few of whom had ever carried a stick before. Myra Pfau, a sophomore, who played lacrosse for the first time last year, was captain and able right attack wing. Esther Jones and Arden Fish played the defense wing positions. Keenie Scott was the third man, and Jean Nicholson the left attack wing. Karen Koehler held down the center position; Hinck Smith and Alice Hay played home. Les Leeds and Sue Williams payed point and cover point respectively. Anne Smith, who was playing the game for the first time did an excellent job at first home. Jan hlostetter saw action in several capacities, but mainly as an attack wing. The first game, a somewhat heated contest with Beaver, resulted in a score of four to three with Sw arthmore the victor. Bryn Mawr, although scoring the first goal, succumbed to a devastating front line attack and the game ended: Swarthmore 7, Bryn Mawr 2. The last game, with Penn, provided the best competition the team met. Although the girls played well, the final score was 7-2 with Penn the victor. Ann Smith and Jean Nicholson tallied Swarthmore ' s goals. ■With only three scheduled games, the season seemed all too short; but the initiation of Play-Day provided a much anticipated focal point. Five college teams, Swarthmore, Temple, Bryn Mawr, Beaver, and Penn, as well as the All-Philadelphia squad participated. The All-Philadelphia game proved to be an exciting illustration of lacrosse at its best. It is hoped that Play-Day will become an annual event, and an incitement to wider and more spirited participation in this relatively new, but rapidly growing women ' s sport. 114 Basebali 1 SW i6 J W, n latest 0 Lacking everything but uniforms, the 1948 baseball team managed to compile a record unique even in Swarthmore athletic history. With an offense practically as ineffectual as its defense, the Garnet team didn ' t stand a chance against most opposition. The result was a perfect season: no wins and ten defeats. Possibly the factor which determined the course of the campaign was an injury sustained by Rolf Valtin. hHis accident deprived the team of an experienced third baseman. Ed Mahler took over at the hot corner, but would have been more effective at second base, a post with which he was more familiar, hie also alternated with Dick Esrey at shortstop, and though they each showed flashes of real ability at that position, their fielding v as inconsistent. Bill Spock, a good ball player, but lack- ing experience, filled in capably at second. The best fit in the infield was at first base, where Warren Higgins played a smooth-fielding role. The outfielders were, at various times, Joe Gaskill, Woody Comp- ton, Wally Francis, and Esrey. Dick Greenstein was the hard-working catcher. The pitching staff of Phil Evans, Gaskill, and the ubiquitous Esrey was seldom able to hurl a tight ball game. Although they displayed some knowledge of the object of the game, none of them was enough of a specialist to be a successful pitcher. The only bright spot in an otherwise sordid season was the hitting ability of hiiggins and Esrey, with occasional help from Mahler and Gaskill. Their bats spoke with some authority. The rest of the bats hadn ' t much to say. s spre, es Esrey MGavne ' ot r: rfVtvets in tia vetior ' i CO ' , ege : ' S fjlaw ,ase ' Standing: W. Spock Sitting: P. Evans, E. G. Spofford, F.

The three losses were sustained in close matches with Penn and Army, while the Garnet was hope- lessly outclassed by Haverford. Morrie Bodenger was seeded number one, with hlowie Frankel, Dick Kirschner, Bucky Shane, Ned Brown, Captain Bob Rosseheim, and Bill Osier following in that order. Frankel Rossh The squad showed depth and strength throughout. Bodenger ' s only losses were to Muhlenberg ' s Rurack, for- mer Rumanian national champ, Oliver of Army, Eastern Intercollegiate title-holder, and Schnaars, Haverford ' s tal- ented captain. The other men dropped few sets, and those to men with far greater experience. The 1949 season outlook is none to bright, with only Shane and Kirschner returning from I948 ' s crack team.

A group of enthusiastic players, aided by the fighting spirit and unity of Coach May Parry was the greatest factor in their success. Jean Abbott, Margie hiench, and Bobbie Jamison held down the singles spots in that order. The doubles combinations were Rita Handy- Betty Lee White, and Mary Strawbrldge-Sally hlyslop. Joan Litchard and Edie Nye also played several double matches. After a shaky 3-2 victory over Chestnut Hill the team found their range and defeated Temple and Drexel, both 5-0. Rosemont succumbed 3-2, and then ensued the best match of the season, a thrilling 3-2 loss to Penn that was decided In the last set. The season ended with an 3-2 victory over Ursinus. Next season ' s prospects look excel- lent with only Mary Strawbridge lost to the team via graduation. «- ' «« White Jamison Hench 117 ' :;U i. ?5.F Back Row: Coacli, A. Lazarsfeld, L. Pantke. W.

Safiball The record of two victories against seven defeats does not show a true picture of the 1948 Softball season. A tendency to blow up in one inning, and a penchant to let opposing runs score after two were out proved the down- fall of the team. In all other respects the team looked good; batting and fielding averages were high, and there were some outstanding Individual performances. Jane de Vries, Cush Niles and C. J. Jones were mak- ing their third appearance with the team. Peg Allen, Pat Edwards, and Lucy hiandwerk were other returning vet- erans. Rounding out the squad were freshmen Winnie Armstrong, Mary Beech, Tish Das, Lottie Lazarsfeld, Pat Meyer, Anne Mount, and Sue Rose. Pat Meyer and Cush Niles filled the vacant positions of catcher and pitcher, proving to be an able combination. The return of seasoned players, and bright freshmen prospects makes the 1949 season outlook bright. Archery Once again the crack-shot archery team finished the season with a set of totals of which they may justly feel proud. Betty Bassett captained the team through three victories, first place In the West Chester Tournament, second place In the local Intercollegiates, and only one defeat, while the JV had the unmarred record of three victories. The Varsity shooters were: Betty Bassett, Jane Morfoot, Joan LeVIno, and Win Witcraft. In the Six College Shoot sponsored by the Pennsylvania Archery Association on November 20th, we found that we can again look forward to a promising spring season. We took second place, thanks to the fine shooting of Robin Cooley, Marian Ellenbogan, Betts hHershberger, and Win Witcraft. Standing: A. Matthews, R. Pretzat, J. LeVIno, R. Cooley Kneeling: W.

Men ' s Golf Getting off to a slow start against the strong opposi- tion of Princeton, Penn, and Army, the Swarthmore golf squad snapped back in the latter part of the season to snare four victories against a total of six, defeats. Al- though there were insufficient times and facilities for prac- tice, each of the boys rallied his mid-summer skill at least a couple of times. Paced by that long-hitter, John Long- street, who fired consistently in the 70 ' s, everyone broke 80 on his good days. Captain Larry Eagle Yearsley played a steady game all year, but as No. I man he had to buck the toughest competition; hence his personal record was not quite as impressive as his spirited leader- ship. Probably nobody on the team will forget the Haver- ford match and the last round of the fight for the Hood Trophy. That honor wasn ' t ours until Tom McCarthy and Skeet Shull fired pars on the eighteenth hole to give Swarthmore a 5-4 victory. Back Row: F. Felton, Mgr., J. Longstreet, C. Reilly, M. Bassett, S.

The Women ' s Golf Team, though it is one of Swarth- more ' s smallest and least publicised teams, saw an un- defeated season in the spring of 1948 with matches played with Penn, Ursinus, and Temple. This record was largely due to a great deal of practice on the part of the mem- bers. Under the guidance of Irene Moll, they practiced during the spring and fall seasons on the Tully Secane course. Members Included Peg White, Avice Stevens, and Jan Crum who returned to the team ranks from the previous year, G. G. Joch, a transfer from Western College for Women who played first position, and Maralyn Orbison, team manager. 119 A gitatars Standing: P. Edwards, J. Smythe, L. Handwerk. R. Handy. J. Merrill.

Phaenix The Phoenix editorial board began fhis year with mem- ories of the administration ' s axe-wielding still very fresh in mind. In the early months of the semester visions of dire events continued to hang over the Phi.nx officers; but during the course of the ensuing months the old inde- pendent spirit seems to have recovered some of its former vigor, with the Board trying nevertheless to temper its enthusiasm with the necessary discretion and good taste. Perry Redifer held the editorship during the first semester of the year, turning to pink-sheet journalism with a special invasion from Mars issue. The exigencies of honors work forced Perry to resign shortly before the end of the term, and he was replaced during the interim before the coming year by Fred Trescott, the Copy Editor. The second semester editor was Ethan Delnard, who was assisted by Dick Smith. A large number of fresh- man reporters turned out to bolster the staff. The able work they handed in to the copy desk during the year gives promise for the future of Swarthmore journalism. Much experimenting was done during the course of the year on the size of the paper. During the first-semester it returned to the familiar tabloid size. The present make-up, however, is a far cry from the four page edition that R. Feldman, S. Braman, M. Dean. G. Rosen, M. Bosterli, P. Redifer, Fall Editor; F. Trescott, Copy Editor, D. Smith, Associate Editor, D. Keller, Sports Editor. 122 T. Kinney, Feature Editor, D. Singer, J. Kemp, J. Schwartz appeared during the war years. Although few new fea- tures have been added, experiments with the make-up of the paper have been frequent and bold. A wider cov- erage of campus activities and a greater emphasis on diversified features have resulted in an eight or ten page edition. Sports coverage was extended and improved this year. The brain behind the innovations was that of Phil Brickner, who gave a new inside touch to sports articles and initiated a new type of Phoenix reporting. Particular mention should be made of the business staff, whose tireless efforts were largely responsible for the expansion of the Phoenix. Business Manager James Wes- ton, serving his first term on the staff, has succeeded in putting the Phoenix on a sound financial basis. So success- ful were he and his staff in bringing in advertising that in many issues late in the year fully fifty per cent of the paper consisted of advertising. As a result of these exer- tions. Circulation Manager Polly Angle and Al Matthias have closed the ledgers on a most successful year. Fred Trescott was elected to carry on the work of the Phoenix during the coming year. The new staff looks ahead to another shining year of, All the news that fits we print. M. Bosterii, P. Angle, Circulation Ivlgr., A. Matthias, Absent, J. Weston, Business Mgr. 123 ii D. Evans, D.

The gesta- tion period of this Swarthmore Halycon, however, was accompanied by such turmoil and furor as to belie the name of the book. Hampered by having to live up to last year ' s product and by an editorial staff long on inter- est but short on experience, there were times when it seemed exceedingly doubtful whether this year ' s bird would ever come out of its shell. But well-seasoned re- cruits swelled the ranks of the staff. We finally discovered the true meaning of dummy and copy. The business staff came through with ads enough to cover expenses and we bought a typewriter. From there on it was smoother sailing. The literary staff was heartened by the discovery that so many of the Juniors and Seniors were loyal, sincere, good fellows, interesting and interested. The editors were encouraged when they discovered that several students who had confessed to eating their proofs were only kidding. The business staff, consisting of Bill J. Weston, M. Teale, L. Handwerk, Circulation Editor, W. Ravdin, S. Hyslop, Art Editor, I. Costlkyan, Literary Editor, L. Handwerk, C. Business Mqr. Shafer, L. Margraves, Make-up Editor. 124 1950 Ravdin, was very gratified when the Business Manager, also Bill Ravdin, decided to round up a few more people for his staff. Monday and Saturday afternoons saw the editorial and literary staffs with those poor souls who could be enticed into the lower regions involved in a most confused attempt to identify pictures, type write-ups, copy make-up and find someone to go to the village for food. The Business staff worked farther afield, cornering ads throughout the Philadelphia area, writing many letters to reluctant adver- tisers, and beating upon students to buy the new fHalcyon which only costs five dollars this year. Without an overall plan, the staff attempted to give a rounded picture of the college by Including all possible material, and by putting this forth in a more or less organized, readable manner. Our highest ambition, as well as our campaign slogan, was to get the book out on time. At this point it remains to be seen whether or not this goal will be realized. C. Ihrig, W.

All forms of literary expression are encouraged, with concentration on a particular form each sernester. During the fall semester the members engaged in an intensive study of the short story, augmented by an analysis of the structure and content of various model short stories by contemporary authors. During the spring semester the group studied various poetic forms in detail so that they could better understand the adaptability of the various forms to their purposes. The weekly meetings are held at Mr. Ackart ' s home on a seminar basis, where the author reads his work and the group as a whole criticizes and offers suggestions which they feel would improve the work. Both the contextual and formal aspects of creative writing are subjects of dis- cussion. Standing: F. Angle, T. Kinney, Mr. Ackart, Faculty Advisor, A. Garab. Sitting: H. Albritton. Chairman, R.

With the help of the Fine arts department and the Arts and Crafts Committee a num- ber of people were shaken out of their self-conscious leth- argy and began to experiment with their abilities. Work- ing from imagination and models drafted from local campus talent, the students were able to take advantage of Mr. Rhys ' criticism and encouragement. In addition to the annual June showing in the Managers Parlor, this group participated in a Philadelphia area Cultural Exhibit under the auspices of the NSA. Although only three pictures were selected for this closely limited exhibition, surprising competency and sensitivity were shown in the work of the group as a whole. In spite of the difficulties in publicizing and financing such an organization, the sketch group reappeared as a regular institution under the unofficial chairmanship of- Salty hlyslop and the advice of Mr. Rhys.

Sculpture Group The sculpture group is one of the newest campus organ- izations and, though small, one of the most successful. The continued interest of the class throughout the semes- ter with only an occasional retreat to study for exams is quite encouraging. And from the activity in Trotter basement Wednesday evenings it appears that the in- experience of the twenty students is further incentive to better work. As to actual achievement, the work of one semester produced a sizeable exhibit for display in the Managers ' Parlors in December. Most of the thirty pieces, both abstract and realistic, were products of the artists ' imagination. The Fine Arts Department praised the qua- lity and maturity shown in the exhibition as quite unusual for beginners. Much of the success of this experiment should be attributed to Madame Zelezny, who has done much to encourage those interested. With such an auspicious first year the sculpture group is bound to make a name for itself at Swarthmore. 127 p. Angle, Pres., D. Campbell, Sec ' y, W. Witcraft, Treas. J. Finkel, R. Paton, A.

Snvarthtnare L itth In ifs third year under the capable direction of Barbara Pearson Lange, the Swarthmore College Little Theatre Club bit off a big chunk in the field of dramatic endeavor and, according to audience response, acquitted itself well. Maxwell Anderson ' s tense Wlnterset was chosen as the major fall production, and offered opportunity for exceptional lighting and sets, which were provided by Wood Tate and Dick Mason, respectively, as well as for sustained • character portrayals by a large group of principals. Balancing the fall tragedy, nineteenth century comedy in the form of Pinero ' s The Gay Lord Quex proved a successful vehicle for a hard-working cast, for Dick South- worth ' s unit set and Mason ' s elaborate and colorful cos- tumes. This March production of a period comedy was followed in April by three student written one act plays chosen in conjunction with the Book and Key playwriting contest. Still later in the spring, LTC ' ers were hard at work on Shakespeare ' s ' [As You Like It, for which the outdoor A. Pearson. F. Compton, J. Finkel, D. Campbell, L. Thorne, R. Paton, B.

The May Day performance, in cooperation with Gwimp ' s festivities, employed Eliza- bethan techniques of uninterrupted action on and in front of a bare stage. This busy dramatic season included numerous smaller projects: a reading of Arthur Miller ' s All My Sons, directed by Doris Campbell, was given by LTC members as a program of off-campus groups. A lecture by Edwin Piscator of the DramaticWorkshop of the New School, on The Theatre of Today and Tomorrow was jointly spon- sored by LTC and the Cooper Foundation. Mr. Piscator spoke more informally later to an interested group of LTC members. For the second year, LTC sponsored for its members a Theatre Weekend in New York City during the interim between terms. A group of ten went backstage after performances of Inside U. S. A., The Red Gloves, and The Madwoman of Chaillott, also visiting costume houses and other theatrical establishments, and meeting stage personalities. W, Tate. Technical Director. D. Southworth, D.

The literary works of Classic antiquity are timeless, and within the Classic tradition may be found some of the finest prose and poetry, to say nothing of the drama and the achieve- ments of the first intellectuals of history. The world of the Ancients, while limited geographically, was culturally quite profound, and philosophically mature. The Classics Club seeks to recapture some of the beauty and sublimity that characterized the dawn of Western civilization. The Club will soon produce Iphegenia on Tauris . It will be a new version, the original being translated by members of the Club. The Club also held Its annual banquet, where members, friends and advisor dined in the manner of the Ancients.

French Club The recently reorganized French Club, under the direc- tion of Madam Hovey, Mile. Philips, and Mile. Arpine Levonian, is attempting to concentrate interest in the French language for the many students of French at Swarthmore. The friendly atmosphere of the club pro- vides a means whereby the learning of the language becomes something more than rote memorization. Activities of the club include dinner parties based on Frerrch menus, occasional trips to the movies, and lectures held at the bi-monthly meetings. In addition, the French club assists the girls of the Maison Francaise in preparing for teas and dances. Christmas and Twelfth Night (La Fete des Rois) were celebrated by dancing, community singing, and the acting of La Farce du Chaudronnier . The important event of the French Club calendar for Spring 1949 was the production of Moliere ' s Le Malade Imaginaire, which was presented in April. The produc- tion revealed the varied talents of the club ' s members and was a high spot in their year ' s activities. 130 rn Standing: J. Hanke, A. Ferndndez, A. (:7d[ db, F. Flint, A. Marian, R.

Mag, Mr. Spanish Club The Club de Espanol of Swarthmore serves as a means of acquainting those students interested in Spanish with the customs and manners of Spanish-speaking peoples. The entire meeting is conducted in Spanish, and besides the usual small-talk, there is an interchange of ideas and experiences about the culture and folklore of Spain and Latin America. Numerically the club varies from week to week around a nucleus of ten or so faithfuls. The Sunday night meetings are usually held in the lodges. There is dancing to Latin- American records, and sometimes singing around the piano. Occasionally some of the members volunteer to give short talks about interesting experiences, thus add- ing not only to the general fund of knowledge, but also to his own ease in speaking. Other activities are trips to Philadelphia to see Spanish films and joint meetings with other colleges such as hHaver- ford and Bryn Mawr. A great part of the success of the Spanish Club is due to the interest and help of Professors Gonzalez and Sorber. But it Is the enthusiasm of the students themselves which keeps its membership growing. German Club For the first time In several years, the German Club is an active campus organization. Under the leadership of an enthusiastic group of students, and the guidance of Miss Cohn, its faculty adviser, the club has met for a varied series of programs. These range from games and folk songs to discussions of conditions in Germany now and during the war, led by several of the German students. In an effort to give those interested a chance to converse in German, the club has sponsored German Tables at dinner two nights a week. Thanks to the per- sistence and patience of Gertrude Joch and Ursula Freund, these have been the occasion for many interesting and amusing discussions. With over forty members on its rolls, the club has had a minimum of twenty members at every meeting so far. Its success lies in its ability to bring German out of the classroom and into the daily lives of students. Back Row: H. Schmitz. M. Hill, E. Ruden, M. Browne, K. Wolfe. T. Altdffer, H. Roether.

During the year 1948-49 the Swarthmore College orchestra, conducted by Mr. Peter van de Kamp, had from thirty-five to forty players distributed in good balance over the various instrumental sections. The Orchestra gave two concerts in Clothier. The Winter concert pre sented Hayden ' s Oxford Symphony and -works by Mozart, Beethoven, Sibelius, and Gillis. In the Spring Mozart ' s Symphony No. 36 in C Major and Mendelssohn ' s Italian Symphony were offered. HVelsh Charus The Welsh Chorus, formed and directed by Walter White, has inaugurated a new era of music at Swarth- more College this year. The men, under the tutelage of Parry Jones, showed a remarkable ability In grasping the phonetics of the difficult Welsh vocabulary. Their repertoire Included Welsh -hymns, folk ballads, and marching songs. They appeared on regional radio networks, in a Collection program, and were featured at the NSA culturale. 132 JLi yjAaa— g rri, Charus Not In Order: K. Allebach, R. Alexander, Mr. Bancrolt.

The Swarthmore College Chorus, directed by Mr. James Sorber, presented two programs this year — one at Christmas time and one on May Day. The Christmas program consisted of v orks by Victoria, Palestrina, Bach and tHandel. The Spring program of Faure ' s Requiem was given as a vespers service to close the May Day schedule. Outstanding were the solos by Walter White and Polly Pinsker, and the accompaniment by Mary Ann Kidder. Girls ' Chair The Girl ' s Choir was a group of girls interested in unusual music gathered informally this year under the direction of Polly Pinsker to sing Benjamin Britten ' s Ceremony of Carols. Together with the Welsh Chorus, the choir presented a collection program which was among the most unusual and enjoyable programs in many years. The sensitive and moving interpretation attested to their thorough understanding of Britten ' s music. J. Favorite, S. Levy, P. Sutton, B. Lower, R. Lobeck, B. Bruce. N. Bixler. A. Clifford, N.

About half of the dancers were old hands at the first of the year. The other half had to learn the dif- ference between an allemande left and do-si-do. ' They learned quickly though, and were soon teaching others. Since there is no regular attendance there has been a mixture of beginners and experienced dancers all year. The music is always records, but Irene Moll and the co- chairmen, John hHoskins and Tink Yntema, have done quite a bit of the calling. The group is always glad to help out new callers and is also eager to learn new dances, either folk or square. Beside the regular dancing at which everybody is welcome, one hour each week has been devoted to demon- stration practice. There has been one or two demonstra- tions each semester including the Folk Festival. Although there was no official connection between the two groups, naturally the Square dance worked on the Folk Festival, which was a grand week-end of folk dancing and singing. M. Yntema.

Rut- 134 Outing Ciub Singing, square dancing, hiking, biking, canoeing, and rock climbing are but a few of the varied activities of the Outing Club. Any wild scheme is considered, and as often as not, carried out. This last year has been notable for increased interest in the country near Swarth- more. Sunday hikes, cave trips, and pack trips not only offer the fun of the outdoors, but bring increased aware- ness of this part of the country. Several other motives prompt us to go off on these weekends: square dancing, hikes, food, and a chance to relax in front of the open fire and talk about everything from mountain-climbing to pacificism. The club offers monthly trips to the cabin on Mr. Pitt ' s farm near the Mason-Dixon Line, for a slightly milder form of roughing it . In the absence of coolies, we have had to rely for transportation on the Gadget, a large panel wagon also known variously as the Black Maria, the Green hHornet, and the Creeping Carryall . Spring is Folk Festival season for the club. Guests and artists are attracted from all over the East to participate in this annual event held sometime in May. Highlighted by two nights of folk and square dancing, the Festival also includes noted folk singers, demonstration groups, and impromptu jam-sessions. Susan Reed, her brother Jerry, and Margot Mayo headed last year ' s list of per- formers. The Outing Club is open to all who want to join in its activities. All that is required is a desire to enjoy life — out in the open. K. Stanton, M. Yntema, R. Norman, D. Detweiier, J. Sartorlus. : W. Matchett, N. Weber, O. Wolcott, E.

The year was well utilized with activities for new and old members alike. At the beginning of the year a few meetings were taken up with the discussion of elementary darkroom procedure for the benefit of new- comers to photography. The heart of the club, the dark-room, was given an adrenalin this year when it was renovated and the interior filled with much needed equipment to replace the old deteriorated equipment from pre-war days. With these improvements the dark room has been in almost constant use by the members of whom there were more than thirty. Several members did all the photography work for the Phoenix and for the hialcyon. Other members were busy with photography work for other organizations and for personal use; all of which has put the facilities of the club to extensive use. This Spring the club revived a previously annual affair, which has been allowed to lapse in the past years, namely the exhibit of prints of the members of Parish Hall. The exhibit contained over twenty prints including one color print. Those who exhibited this year were: Morgan Moore, Karl Ihrig, Woodlief Thomas, Cushing Niles, John Ander- son, Bruce Seaman and Paul Shoup. Print Club The Printing Club is now in its fourth consecutive semes- ter of activity. Starting from a few scattered cases of rather unusable typefaces, the group in West Trotter Basement has gradually built up its resources. Though still hampered by a 60 year old press, the club now pos- sesses a well-rounded type assortment, plus other neces- sary odds and ends, and has used them to good effect in the LTC programs and other lesser projects. Right now, under the leadership of Ross Eckler, the Club is engaged in printing a collection of the best from Campus Comment. If not completed this Spring, the edi- tion will make its appearance early next fall — thus preserv- ing for all time those quaint contributions to our campus cultural configuration. R. Cordray, A.

Approximately every other Tuesday evening the Math- ematics Club holds its regular meetings in the Observatory. These meetings are devoted principally to lectures on various mathematical subjects which are given by stu- dents, Members of the Swarthmore Mathematics Depart- ment, and guest mathematicians. This past year, parti- cular emphasis was placed by first semester president Bill Lichten on student participation, with the result that most of the talks were given by students. Among the speakers were Bob Norman, Bill Lichten, Dr. Hans Roth, Dan Beshers, Dr. R. Courant, Dick Cordray, Jerry Ravetz, and Dr. Brinkmann. The subjects were diverse, including talks on The Riemann Zeta Function, Experimental Mathematics, Descriptive Geometry, and Kakeya ' s Minimal Problem. The lectures were occasionally accompanied by discussions of problems presented and solved. Six members of the Mathematics Club entered the annual Putnam Math- ematical Competition, sponsored by the Mathematical Association of America. Science Integration With the help of a grant from the Cooper Foundation, and the advisory aid of Dr. Enders, Science Integration presented a diverse and rewarding group of lectures. The lectures were planned to appeal to that large seg- ment of the student body which has special interest in the social and natural sciences, with particular emphasis on the latter. In several instances the lectures were particul- arly valuable because they were concerned with fields of study which are not now part of the college curriculum. The speakers came from both the Swarthmore faculty and outside institutions. The social scientists who spoke included Professor Mor- ganbesser of the Philosophy Department, Dr. Paul F. Lazarsfeld, director of the Institute of Applied Social Research at Columbia, who spoke on public opinion poll- ing, and Dr. 1argaret Mead, the anthropologist connected with the American Museum of Natural History. The natural scientists included Dr. Dresden of the Math- ematics Department, and Dr. J. Edward Hoffmeister of the Universtiy of Rochester, who spoke on Pacific Island Geology. Other speakers included Dr. H. C, Urey of the University of Chicago, wKo discussed some of his recent research, and Dr. H. J. Muller of the Universtiy of Indiana who spoke on the Russian genetics controversy. L. Lazarsfeld, J. Siner, Chairman, R. Demerec. 137 Engineer ' s Club E. Kacprzyk, Sec ' y, D. Ramsey, Pres., J. Stabler, Treas. The Swarthmore College Engineer ' s Club is one of the most unique ogranizations on campus. Its membership encompasses all engineering students in school, is the least publicized, and yet one of the most active of Swarth- more ' s myriad clubs. Divided into three groups: the Civil, Electrical, and Mechanical Engineers, each belonging to a national agency, the various sections are welded to- gether into a homogeneous group by the campus or- ganization. The club ' s activities are manifold: each year it holds an annual Christmas party v hich is a highlight of the year; in cooperation with the faculty it places engineers in sum- mer positions to give men an opportunity for practical work in their field. It is also instrumental in arranging educational movies, and bringing speakers on campus to lecture in the various fields. The 1948-49 term saw its activity centered on two main projects; an open house, and a survey of the time engineers spend on study and in extra-curricular work. At the open house, in which the entire department co- operated, attendance exceeded even the most optimistic expectations. The result was gratifying in that it brought to the public the fact that Swarthmore has a highly efficient and highly rated engineering school. A complaint from the adminstration that engineers did not participate enough in extra-curricular activities prompted a survey of classroom, laboratory, and study time of all engineering students. This is an extensive and searching project that entails detailed questioning and interviews of each member. Its varied activities, and aim of helping member students makes the Engineering Club a lasting and worthwhile organization. Engineering Drawing. R. Baliey, D.

September and the first semester saw Mike Eisler head the rapidly developing studios in .West Trotter, hie was assisted by Rudolph Hirsch, Business Manager; Kenneth Kurtz, Director of Sports and Special Events; E. Jay Finkel, Chief Announcer; Nancy Weber and David Shearer, Co-production Chiefs; Franz Leichter, Publicity Director; Ruth Merson, Record- ing Director; Ted Conant and Bill Young, Technical Directors; and Alan Ward, Chief Engineer. At the turn of semester a new staff was chosen. Petite Nancy Weber became Station Manager of WSRN. Alan Kamman was appointed Program Director; Charles Andes, Chief Announcer; John Corya, followed by Frank Solomon, Business Manager; Wolf Epstein replaced Bill Young as a Technical Director.; the others continued in the same posi- tions. These directors, assisted by a staff of over seventy, achieved the success that capped SN ' s year. The station ' s greatest achievements were in the realm of special events. Aided by a local sponsor SN brought to the stay-at-homes all Swarthmore major athletic events via the airwaves. Using every available means of com- munication games were aired from Chester, Baltimore, Allentown, Philadelphia, and other distant points. The engineering staff was largely responsible for providing facilities for off-campus broadcasting. On-campus activity was expanded to bring to the dorms all visiting speakers, 139 Mm K.

This latter service proved a boon to students unable to attend because of the press of work. In addition, live programs were using more and more radio time. These shows, besides providing enjoyable entertainment, were a source of valuable micro- phone and engineering experience for performers and staff alike. Audience participation shows were also an added feature of SN ' s service. The recording services begun last year were increased under the directorship of Ruth Merson. College shows, musical performances, speakers, plays, and athletic events were recorded; also, making LP records was a welcome Innovation. The most exciting event of the year was the presenta- tion of the famed Men from Mars broadcast. Records, augmented by local field stations set up in Crum, atop 140 mr: H ' Parrish, on the a+hletlc field, and other vantage points on campus, provided a realistic Interpretation of a Mar- tian Invasion. The entire scene was vividly portrayed by various announcers, with the Phoenix reporters cooper- ating by giving on-the-spot news coverage. The entire broadcast was a masterpiece of coordination and engi- neering; It was a highlight of a full broadcasting year. The regularly programed schedule of ten hours a day, five days a week was made possible by two big improve- ments. The first of these was the broadcasting of Cut- ting Collection to the campus each afternoon whenever the station was not officially on the air. The second was that of the Philadelphia Inquirer Collegiate Network. Nancy Weber, representing Swarthmore College, helped In the organizational meetings, together with representa- tives from the University of Pennsylvania and Temple University, under the direction of WFIL in Philadelphia.

IRC Debate Club The International Relations Club under the energetic leadership of Anne Gilbert undertook a wide variety of activities this year. The discussions offered included a talk by Mr. Wood on tfie question of Spain ' s admission to the U. N., a forum on United States policy toward China, an analysis of the situation in Germany by Harald Schmitz and Hermann Roether, a debate on the North Atlantic Pact between Ted Wright, Sam Day, and Zeke Montgomery, and a lecture on U. N. problems by Mr. Dorfmann of the U. N. secretariat. The I.R.C. cooperated with the Foreign Policy Association in conducting three model sessions of the Security Council, one of which was held at Swarthmore. Knowledge of the functioning of the U. N. was further promoted by participation in a model General Assembly session held at Rutgers and by a trip to Lake Success. The administrative work of the club was done this year by the three secretaries. Else Wells, Rene Schepses, and June Miller, and by treasurer Walter Blass. The year 1948-49 saw the greatest activity in the his- tory of the Swarthmore College Debate Society. The group participated in four tournaments and approximately seventy-five dual debates, with more than half of the latter being decision contests. The winning of more than half of their decisions was remarkable in that Freshmen, who had never ascended a podium before, participated in many of the contests. Some of the newcomers, who are not pictured above, are T. Washburn, G. Pollock, A. Davis, V. Theiman, J. Finkel, I. Baffin, D. Frost, R. Gernert, R. Rosecrance, and L. Rivlin. In tournament contests, Swarthmore relinquished the State Championship, losing to the two finalists by one and two points; the Ben Franklin trophy also rested else- where for the first time in two years. In the regional qualifying round for the national championship, Swarth- more was edged out In the semi-finals. Four Freshmen represented Swarthmore at the Mount Mercy Tournament and made an excellent showing. Although the Society did not bring any trophies home, the year was counted a great success. With the greatly increased participation, and the possibility of men ' s and women ' s teams, next year is being looked forward to with eagerness. Standing: R. Heath, A. Marsh, W. Dusinberre, Mgr.

UWF The United World Federalists is a world-wide organiza- tion which seeks to establish, by political means, a uni- versal government with powers adequate to prevent war. The activities of the Swarthmore Chapter, a branch of the national organization with headquarters in New York, are directed towards achieving this goal by political action in the local area and by educational programs for members of the college and the village of Swarthmore. It is the latter of these two functions which has been stressed in the past year. A study program was held on the need and the nature of a Federal World Govern- ment during which faculty members discussed their opinions of the problem. Weekly broadcasts were given over WSRN interpreting the news as it applied to inter- national peace and cooperation. Outside of the college, meetings were organized in private homes where world government was discussed In March, Vernon Nash, vice-president of UWF, spoke at a rally held in Clothier Memorial for members of the college and the town, in observance of National World Government Week. 143 ICG One of Swarthmore ' s activities which has been growing in stature is the campus chapter of the Pennsylvania Inter collegiate Conference on Government. ICG is the only student activity of its kind in the country. This singular institution has become, since 1934, an effective laboratory exercise in the complex operation of responsibile demo- cratic government. The official purpose of the organization is to foster an interest in governmental problems among the students in colleges and universities by dramatizing the activities of the government in an unbiased, non-partisan flianner. Each spring delegates from most of Pennsylvania ' s col- leges gather for a mock session of some deliberative body. This year the conference took the form of a model state legislature; in the past they have been political conven- tions, constitutional conventions, and national congresses. Swarthmore has been one of the most active participants in the annual meeting. Over a period of years she has gained a reputation for her leadership and strong intent to judge issues on their merit and not in accordance with political machinations. Swarthmore students have been acknowledged for their independence and ability by winning appointments to many positions of responsibility within the organization. The 1949 Swarthmore conferees were: Nancy Abbott, Bill Dusinberre, Andy Frank, Ken Kurtz, Aaron Marsh, Polly Pinsker, Bill Ravdin, Lou Rivlin, Ralph Roy, and Danny Singer. Standing: J. Lewis, M.

National Student Assn. Race Reiations Cawn. At a recent Regional Convention of the U. S. Na- tional Student Association, someone called Swarthmore the mighty midget of NSA. Swarthmore ' s committee was led by Ralph Smith, former Publicity Director of the Pennsylvania Region. hHe was succeeded In his publicity post this year by Ken Kurtz, who directs publication of the Regional News Letter. This year several NSA sub- committees have worked on special projects. One of these, under Gwen Hamilton, arranged Swarthmore ' s par- ticipation in NSA ' s Regional Intercollegiate Music and Art Culturale in Philadelphia. Robin Briehl handled NSA ' s program of tours, workcamps, and study groups abroad this summer. Finally, a sub-committee was set up this spring for gaining admittance of several Displaced Person students to Swarthmore. The Race Relations Committee was originally organized for the purpose of getting Negro students admitted to Swarthmore. While it still works on admissions, the Com- mittee has assumed a number of other functions. One of the most Important projects has been the organization of the Swarthmore Interracial Council, a race relations group in the village. The Committee has also cooperated with a fellowship group In Media, and several members are working at weekend work camps In the area. On campus the most important job Is still Negro admissions; the Committee has helped contact a number of Negro applicants, and works with the Admissions Committee to secure scholarship aid for those who apply.

Student Zionist Group Since 1946 when the Swarthmore chapter of the Stu- dent Christian Association was formed, it has been instru- mental in bringing about an increased awareness of religion on campus. Activity centers about daily early morning meetings and occasional vesper services in the Quaker manner, a weekly newsletter, and direct action through the Community Service Committee of the Student Council. This year a program geared to varied interests has met with enthusiastic response. Speakers of differing faiths have explained the traditions of their religions, and various members of the faculty have presented their personal religious views. Among the special events was an ad- dress before the college by Reinhold Niebuhr, Christmas Vespers, and the annual Student World Day of Prayer. The Student Zionists are a group of students who meet to discuss and partake in activity centered about Jewish life both in the United States and in Israel. Among the weekly activities of the group are Palestinian folk-dancing, study of the hfebrew language, and political talks, all led by Mr. Sidney Morganbesser. Open panel discussions were held this year on Jean-Paul Sartre ' s book Anti-Semite and Jew and on the topic Is Fascism Dead? Although the group has not indulged in all the activities it would have liked, next year, when it is a little older, the organization will have time and facilities for an ex- panded program.

This year has presented an unusual amount of oppor- tunity for activity on the part of the Interfraternity Coun- cil. It has functioned as usual not only as a coordinating and controlling agency for all campus fraternities, but also as a useful connecting link between the fraternities and the college administrative authorities. The Inter- fraternity Council was instrumental in maintaining good relations between the fraternities and the Offices of the Deans. A most important responsibility — rushing — was handled without contention both in the informal fall season and during the formal freshman rushing period in February. Later it was mutually agreed to move the formal rushing period back to the fall semester. In the fall a new Interfraternity sports cup was pur- chased and was promptly put into circulation by being awarded to Kappa Sigma for its victory of the preceding year. The cup is to be retired in permanent possession of the group which first succeeds in winning it three times. The council was happily successful in its attempt to unwind the red tape which prevented the use of the Cloisters Fund for general improvements to all fraternities. The new concrete-flagstone walks are the first tangible result of this effort. Under the auspices of the Interfraternity Council, the fraternities collectively became the proud parents of a European war orphan. This was accomplished by means of generous financial support through the Foster Parents Plan for War Children, Incorporated. In an effort to increase the contribution of the Inter- fraternity Council to the college community as a whole, a vocational guidance pragram was undertaken. This consisted of a series of lectures by faculty members and qualified alumni from a variety of local industries. Far from the least of Interfraternity Council activities this year has been the work done in cooperation with the Student Council toward freeing the fraternities of their discriminatory membership regulations and practices. Progress on thFs project has been slow, and much remains to be done, but at least the ground is broken. 146 - H Delt€B tJpsilan David Armlngton Edwin Arsht James Blake William Bradshaw William Brosius Richard Brown William Brown Ralph Cheyney William Clarke John Cromwell Roy Dickinson Frank Elliot James Fligg Herbert Frost Richard Frost Stokes Gentry James Hackett John Hoffmeister Alan Hunt William Hunter Phillip Kniskern Burton Levering Roger March Thomas McCabe John Mclntyre John McLagan Frank Miller James Mumper John Need Robert Parson Edward Perkins David Ramsey Jonas Rosenthal William Saul William Schweikle Clinton Shafer Robert Shaffner Steven Sickle John Spaulding Steven Spencer William Spock Charles Stabler Edward Stabler Janney Stabler R.

An extensive program of social activifies is managed by the social committee . . . With this objective in mind, Bill Spangler and Ruth Wilcox, the co-chairmen of the social committee for the first semester of the ' 48- 49 season, and John Anderson and Marcia Olds, the co- chairmen for the second semester, set out to plan the greatest year in social committee history. The first event v as a Mixer Dance, designed as an ice breaker for the incoming freshmen, which turned out to be quite successful. In a few weeks, for those athletic members of the college, there was a swimming and roller skating party held in the men ' s gym. The next red circle on the calendar was the long awaited WSGA forrrtal to which, according to the rules of the game, the women act as escorts. The decorations were done in a blue and silver star motif. Soon came a Victory Dance in Mary Lyons. The Christmas Candlelight Ball the second formal dance of the semester highlighted the end of the season. It was decorated with electric candles placed in each window which provided lighting for the dancers. During the second semester a new emphasis was placed on the Friday night Social Committee dances in Bond. The WSGA formal came at St. Patrick ' s Day time and was again held in the high school gym. Shamrocks and other Irish symbols made up the decorative theme. Bob Frederick ' s orchestra provided mellow music. On March 19, there was a Match Dance held in Commons. Couples were to come dressed as much alike as possible. The prize winners tossed inhibition to the winds and came in potato sacks. The Spring Formal was held on April 30 In the High school gym. Again Bob Fredericks played just the right sort of music and another event was chalked up. The spring semester ended with Nite Club Night during which the freshman and sophomores cooperated in entertaining the students. So ended this year ' s attempt to plan the greatest year In social committee history. 152 Campus Life m Campus Life 154 CAMDEN FIBRE MILLS, Inc.
