Mgr....Selwyn Loeb Fac. Adv.Robert Machesney Our theme is This school, this structure is made up of a number of elements: stone, steel, wood, and glass. More important than any of these is the flesh and blood that gives warmth to the structure. Without people, there would be no Pitt. These people are you fUno- Your University Your Classmates Your Activities Your Crowd You hove fitted yourself into the complexity of all the things that are Pitt. You have come to recognize that it is no cloistered school, shut off from the agitation of the world, no sanctuary in which the student may withdraw into silent contemplation of the universe. Rather, it is in the midst of all motion, moving as all the world moves, pulling you safely always through the maelstrom, never around it. As liquids may swirl over the mouth of a funnel and eventually combine in the tube, so do you here, and those about you come, each one different, to the mouth before the downswing. You come from different high schools, with your own views, your own beliefs. your own social backgrounds. There is no true chemical union as you pass through the tube: there is only a blending and a levelling, in which these e'ements that are you retain their identity, yet complement each other. Prom the farm, from the metropolis, from the mining town you come. Perhaps you will return to these. Still you will have been altered._ _____________________ You are still in the midst of things here. You do not have the full perspective of what has happened. You know that in the years between the time you first registered as a freshman and first walked through the Commons Room and today, you have been changed. But you do not yet realize the immensity of it. You have developed warm familiarity with the University. You know where the elevators stop; what the walls look like under the plaster; where the pencil sharpener is; which professors check attendance and which do not. These things are of you; the habits of your speech, the manner of your actions, the fiber of your thoughts, all will To speak of a giant pattern, set and unchangeable, is to deny the dynamic character of the school. In total, the many people here present a face to the world. When you came here, you added to and changed the nature of the pattern. When you leave, something of yourself will have rubbed off; you will have left something that is of permanence, even within the ever-moving flux and change of the pattern. For each person, moreover, the pattern is different. You see the entirety through the eyes of your mind. For you, all the elements there but they are in different emphasis. are One speaks of college spirit as though it were something into which the student must be fitted. By now, you are aware that it is you who makes the spirit what it is, that you have moved rather than been moved by it. You are now In the midst of all things moving. You cannot stop to ask what is happening around you, for you are a part of it. There is no mirror by which you may see the totality. Yet when the time comes and you may look back upon all of this, you will have been happy for it, and you will have deemed the ends worth the effort.

CAMPU H E Gym 70.000 - n-i Ri 5 : w V v'C CHANCELLOR BOWMAN ■x An energetic idealist, Chancellor Bov man believes in You perhaps more than anyone else. For You he has dedicated his life to the high building which, as he explains simply, represents on the outside what a man should be on the inside. The Chancellor believes in and works on the principle that you are taught by your surroundings. Guided firmly by this belief, he has yielded not a v hit in his purpose of building the kind of Cathedral of v hich he dreamed for you. The Chancellor is a dreamer with faith, with practicability, and with a saving humor. He is a man who goes simply about what he feels is his work in life and does it in his own way. We were happy when the Jugoslavian people gave him the Order of St. Sava II, medal for highest honors in the field of education, but we hardly need the symbol of outside approval to feel that we have at the University a great man. Mr. Rufus Fitzgerald The classroom comes first, says Mr. Fitzgerald. University Provost, but along with that we must have activities that develop initiative, integrity, cooperation, and judgment. This is the philosophy of Rufus H. Fitzgerald who carefully considers educational problems in his quiet office and solves them in collaboration with the faculty. His principal interest is. and always will be, the student. Alert and olive when he talks to you, he remembers you well after only one meeting. And he is always happiest when he is building: building better facilities, building a program of activities, but finally, and most important, building the character of the individual student. Dr. John Weber Stone and steel have long been a part of Dr. John Weber's life. A mechanical engineer by profession, he has served the University in charge of the construction and maintainance of the Cathedral. Amazing as it may seem, Dr. Weber knows the location and dimension of every stone in the Cathedral. Interested in student affairs but with little chance to participate due to his specific functions as secretary of the University anc Board of Trustees, Dr. Weber has been of service to the University as a student, en gineering professor, heao of the Engineering department, and administrator since 1909 Although his duties are many and exact ing, he still finds time to be a sports enthusiast. He is an ardent football fan, but boxing runs a close second in his interest. 3« Administrative Officers o f the University John Gobbert Bowman, M.A., LL.D., Lift.

CHARLES S. TIPPETTS Genial Dr. Charles S. Tippetts became Dean of the School of Business Administration in 1935, after leaving his post of economics professor at Buffalo University. Through his efforts, the Pitt Business Institute, an organization for business students, was organized. Dr. Tippetts' principal interest is the student, and it is his belief that the Biz Ad School trains young men and women to understand the economic and business world and leads them to a successful and socially useful career. This spring, Dean Tippetts will complete his administration at the University to become Headmaster of Mercersburg Academy of which he is an alumnus. DR. STANTON C. CRAWFORD- As director of the activities of the largest undergraduate body in the University, Dr. Crawford has an interest in the problems of education and the personalities who are members of the College. Before becoming Dean of the College, Dr. Crawford was associated with the University as a professor of biology, head of the Johnstown Center for several years, and served as a High School Relations administrator. Dean Crawford’s varied interests reach into the classics, research, biology, sea tales, and detective thrillers. Together with these different interests, he also has had a variety of professions, including those of a teacher, zoologist, and educational administrator. 36 DR. EDMUND H. FRIESELL Respected as a leader in dental education, Dr. Edmund H. Friesell is one of the few faculty men who have been with the University for over twenty years. During that time he has developed the Dental School into one of the largest and most highly respected schools in the country and has developed a high degree of loyalty to the school among dental graduates. Among his achievements is a dental library museum including authoritative collections of material covering the discovery and development of surgical anaesthesia. DR. EINAR W. JACOBSEN Out of the West comes Dr. Einar W. Jacobsen, Dean of the School of Education since September, from his post as superintendent of the Oakland, California schools. He also taught at Columbia and was active in the Association of American School Superintendents. A native Californian, Dr. Jacobsen is interested in the presentation of educational ideals not through text books but through arts. Experience in opera and stock companies during high school days may point to the success he will have and has already had in producing striking educational pageantry. DR. E. ALLEN HOLBROOK Dr. E. Allen Holbrook, head of the School of Engineering and Mines, this year had his problems doubled. Over 1000 students were enrolled in his department under the engineers-for-defense plan sponsored by the United States Office of Education. In addition to these duties he continued to keep his own schools running smoothly and chairmaned the American Institute of Mining and Metallurgical Engineers. Dr. Holbrook's keen interest in the active affairs of Omicron Delta Kappa was heightened when the second of his sons was tapped to the senior honorary, giving the dean the distinction of being the first O.D.K. member to have two sons inducted. DEAN EUGENE A. GILMORE Because of his unassuming and friendly ways, distinguished Eugene A. Gilmore is a favorite among his students. One-time acting governor-general of the Philippine Islands, he is an educator as well, having been former president and dean of Law School at Iowa University, and professor of law at Wisconsin. He is now Dean of the Pittsburgh Law School which organized as a department of the old Western University of Pennsylvania in 1895, became the School of Law in the University of Pittsburgh in 1908. Today, quartered on the fourteenth and fifteenth floors of the Cathedral, Pitt's law school stands among the finest in the country. aflM DR. WILLIAM S. McELLROY On his farm, where he spends as much time as he can, Dr. McEllroy finds relief from all the responsibilities entailed in directing Med School. Having graduated from Pitt the previous year, he served as junior grade lieutenant in the Medical Reserve of the United States Navy during 1917. Since his appointment as Dean in January 1939, he has worked continuously to give his student doctors complete modern equipment. Although at present he is conducting no research, Dr. McEllroy has worked extensively on pernicious anemia, blood pigment and kidney functions. DEAN RUTH PERKINS KUEHN Petite Mrs. Ruth Perkins Kuehn is convinced that nursing is the ideal profession for women and is enthusiastic about working with people, particularly public health nurses. A graduate of the Children's Memorial Hospital in Chicago, Mrs. Kuehn v as associated with the School of Nursing at Ohio State until coming to the University in 1939. She now is national president of Sigma Theta Tau, honorary scholastic fraternity for nurses. When not busy with professional duties, Mrs. Kuehn plays the pipe-organ and likes to collect china. DEAN C. LEONARD O'CONNELL C. Leonard O'Connell, born and educated in the Pittsburgh district, is a graduate of the University of Pittsburgh. Joining the Pharmacy staff in 1922, he was Professor O’Connell four years later, and in 1932 became Dean of the School of Pharmacy. Civic notable, prominent contributor to professional journals, and one-time president of the Pennsylvania Pharmaceutical Society, this youthful looking dean dispenses friendly advice to students. He is interested in the study of educational philosophies. DEAN WILBER I. NEWSTETTER Dean Wilbert I. Newstetter, of the School of Applied Social Sciences, is a sportsman and scientist combined. He directs a privately-owned boys' camp in the wilds of Canada every summer. There, he is able to fish, work with boys, and put into actual practice some of the theories of group work with which he and his classes wrestle all winter long. The dean claims he has the ideal summer, being able to work, relax, and play at the same time. Dean Thyrsa W. Amos Dean of W omen’s Office On Monday evening, May 5, Thyrsa W. Amos, dean of women, died after an extended illness. A great educator, a sympathetic friend and counselor of hundreds of students, and a moving influence in civic life has passed from the scene after twenty-two years of academic leadership at the University. ization problems and attending committee meetings. Aiming to build a better life for Pitt women is the work of assistant dean of women Miss Helen Poole Rush. Women students who are undecided about their vocation or worried about obtaining employment, find their best friend in the other assistant dean. She also knows all about Pitt's housing problems. To further Pitt women toward a financial success is the endeavor of assistant dean of women Mrs. Frances McLaughlin Holland. Outside the private offices, are two trim young girls who see that everything runs smoothly. They type, answer the phones, make appointments, and add to general efficiency. But more, their friendly smiles are the first to greet you as you enter the office—that's secretaries Jane Key and Kay Sturm. Worried about grades or activities? Want a part-time position to make a little extra money? Or do you just need plain, old-fashioned advice? In any case, take your troubles to 1209 Cathedral. Here the First Lady of the Dean of Women's office sits ready to help solve your problems. The well-known, stately figure is present at most affairs and generally oversees the activities of all women at the University. Most often she can be found in her office interviewing students, making final arrangements for a traditional ceremony, or planning part of the Orientation program for women. Happiest when making others happy is dean of women Thyrsa W. Amos. Probably the biggest activity woman on campus is the assistant to the First Lady. Supervising all extra-curricula activities, she acts as advisor to Cwens, Mortar Board and other honoraries. Her life is one of interviewing students about their own or their organ- Helen Poole Rush Mrs. Frances McLaughlin Holland Kay S+urm and Jane Key 39 Dean of Men’s Office 809 is the open door to big events for every man from the shyest greenhorn to the campus biggie. Here, sandwiched between the Tuck Shoppe and the Owl office is the bustling Dean of Men's Office. Here, in the atmosphere that gives a man the sense of belonging, quiet, soft-spoken Dr. Vincent W. Lanfear presides as dean. To the dean's office, pervaded by the feeling of hospitality and hominess, the freshman brings his seemingly-serious problems, his nebulous plans, his high-sounding aims, for here he is certain of a sympathetic hearing and kindly advice. Assistants to the Dean are Mr. Theodore Biddle, Mr. Robert Corley, and Mr. Edward Williams. Falling within the scope of Mr. Biddle's activities are duties of interviewing and selecting chairmen for the various social functions, seeing that dances run off smoothly, working with Cap and Gowners and attending to the numberless other brow-wrinkling details connected with the directing of things extra-curricular. The fraternity question is tackled, and capably so, by Mr. Corley. It is with his assistance that rushing, house-parties, scholastic standing and the other little headaches of fraternal life are smoothed out. Through Mr. Williams, director of the men's employment service, new jobs and part-time employment can be secured. And in these almost-too-masculine environs, Mrs. Ruth Cubbison, Mrs. Abie Dorfield and Miss Lorene Kessler add the delicate feminine touch and, with their pleasantries and business-like efficiency, make the office a favored place for all students. Dean Vincent W. Lanfear Miss Wallace, Mrs. Cubbison. Mrs. Dorfield Ed Williams 40 Bob Corley Ted Biddle The Department Heads The true University is a collection of books . . . and of people . . . and perhaps we may be excused for thinking of our faculty as a rare collection. Certainly we gain knowledge more easily sitting at the feet of the professors then we do by digging in musty tombs in the library: we usually find our teachers somewhat more lively than the Encyclopedia Brittannica. And somehow along with the bits of wisdom that we have gleaned from them, we always remember their personalities. We like the way......... Registrar J. G. Quick with quiet efficiency supervises schedule cards, approves deferred payment plans, manages blue print distribution, and card-punching whirl of registration week. Sandy-haired Dr. Leland Baldwin is so enthusiastic about history that he stays up nights after his many duties as head of the University libraries, to write books like Pittsburgh, the Story of a City ond The Delectable Country, a best seller. Quiet and reserved Dr. Robert M. Black, head of the department of mining engineering, knows his field through ond through. Dr. Harold C. Carlson, called Swedie by his boys, makes up such famous play formations for the basketball team as the Figure Eight and the Busy Bee. Toll, broad-shouldered William Daufen-bach. assistant to the Dean of Men. manages the Lost and Found room ond takes tickets at the University dances. Dr. Monuel C. Elmer colors his sociology lectures by relating past experiences in horse-trading, dramatics, and cheesemaking. His photographic memory dares you to cut class. Dr. Theodore M. Pop Finney, head of the music department, wanders around the fourth floor with a stock of records piled up to his chin — and knows all about them too. George Raymond Fitterer who heads the department of metallurgical engineering combines an interest in music with his knowledge of metals: holds his classes in Dr. Gabbert Mr. Quick Dr. Baldwin Dr. Black f Dr. Hutchisson the afternoon because he detests early morning ones. A fringe of red hair tops the tall form of Dr. Mont Gabbert of the philosophy department who is as great in heart as he is in size. Fishing and golf score as his favorite sports. Dr. Elmer D. Graper. authority in political science, demands plenty of work and gets it, and. has the disturbing ability to ask questions neither man nor saint ever heard of before. James Hagan, director of athletics. 1928 halfback on the first Pitt team to go to the Rose Bowl, knows all the boys on all athletic teams by their first names. Dr. Omar C. Held of the College office straightens out major and minor problems and clarifies schedule difficulties with a minimum of fuss and bother. Y. M. Secretary Bill Hammaker has a weakness for plaid ties, an infectious grin, and a special brand of sincerity. Walter R. Hovey. fine arts head, fits in with our conception of an art critic, with his immaculate grooming and cultured voice, and yet makes sense to our mundane minds even when he discusses artistic abstractions. Dr. Elmer Hutchisson. head of the physics department, and also a member of the Publications Board, sometimes forgets radioactivity to join in the screwball activity of the publications parties. Dr. Auleene Jamison shows genuine interest in all her visitors, and is motherly without being sentimental. Dr. O. E. Jennings, head of the biology department and director of the Lake Laboratory, illustrates his biology lectures with board sketches. Dr. Henry Leighton's blue eyes twinkle beneath neatly combed white hair. He is head of the geology deportment, now in his thirtieth year at Pitt, and his knowledge and obliging manner earn him the respect and friendship of faculty and students alike. Professor L. C. McCandliss. civil engineering head, spins his watch chain as he lectures. Robert Machesney. advisor and pal to publications people, and on old C. G. man. likes after-dinner speaking and dancing with chorus girls: never gets to censor jokes until they have been tried out on him. Dr. Marion McKay, economic professor, likes to ploy out-of-door roles, ranging from boseboll fan to head chef at faculty steak fries. Dr. Jamison Dr. Jennings Dr. Leighton Mr. McCandliss 42 Mr. Machesney Dr. McKay Mrs. Miller Dr. Oliver (His daughter of the same name. Marion McKay, shares his musical interests.) Mrs. Miller distributes cookies with perfect impartiality, arranges teas that reflect good English taste, with flowers and candlelit tea tables, and is a friend to all who come into her realm of hospitality — the Commons Room. Dr. John Oliver, head of the history department, brings to class a cherubic smile; takes a special fatherly interest in his children and in all young people interested in history. Dr. William T. Root, head of the psychology department, puts over important ideas in abnormal psych class by means of humorous dramatizations. H. H. Rothrock. head of the industrial engineering school, gives informal. down-to-earth lectures that show a genuine grasp of the subject. Dr. Whitford H. Shelton, chairman of the department of modern languages, makes mildly sarcastic remarks in French and then laughs heartily at them. With no French dread of fresh air. he opens all windows as soon as he enters the classroom. Long, lean, serious Dr. R. E. Sherrill gives his very popular geology lectures in a soft Texas drawl, a by-product of his summer hobby, drilling for oil. Dr. Alexander Silverman, head of the chemistry department, sometimes reverses the usual order and makos students lecture to the class. Next to his love for cigars, which he is trying to abate by sucking licorice. he likes and collects glass of all kinds. Dr. James S. Taylor, head of the math department, with a good sense of fun. gives out as many mathematical puzzles as orthodox math problems. We like the way they teach their subjects. but we have learned as much from studying them as from studying their lectures. We remember their personalities, their idiosyncrasies, their jokes. We remember Mrs. Lohstoeter's logic about grammar You can't was until you hove it'd!” .... Dr. Blackwood's enjoyment of his physics experiments .... Fergy's assignment of compulsory attendance at all University dances .... Peterson's grin. But seriously, it has been the faculty that has made college more than a place to learn facts. Education is partly books and study, and partly knowing people like them. Dr. Root Mr. Rothrock Dr. Shelton Dr. Sherrill 43 Dr. Silverman Info rmals of Your Faculty X Qou cAt pook FROM ippyfoWhua.it Dr Clmer he receiving line whoppers— ul Up Druid smoker You sit there in your black cap and gown, the tassel dangling over your right eye. You turn your •face from the sun and try vainly to pick out your relatives from the crowd. It is warm, and all you can see in the stands is large blobs of yellow and the vague motions of women fanning themselves with programs. Is this to be the end of it, the period that cuts short the sentence? It is so simple, so quick, this representation of four years' accomplishment. By mid-afternoon it will be all over. At your home, there will be the relatives in from New York who will unroll your diploma and read the words upon it. The speaker is saying something and the others seem to be listening. You catch sight of the faces of your friends around you. These are the people you are leaving. You remember that you have forgotten to get Sam's address in Philadelphia. You will get it, though, and write to him and some day surprise him by dropping in at his home and there will be a laughing and a singing and re-living of memories. Betty Toddie. Mary Ruth Hosey, Gertrude Forman. Adele Yorio. Julia Clemens. Harriet Glasser. Sixteen years ago. in a ceremony similar to that of a ninth century English coronation. the first Senior Queen at the University of Pittsburgh was crowned. Since then, each year a senior girl has been chosen for the royal reign of one year, the highest honor a senior girl may receive. Possessing the ideals of fine womanhood, she is selected by her classmates for superior character, beauty, personality, for maintaining a high academic standing, for participation in extracurricular activities, and for unselfish service to her university. To her, the senior girls pay tribute and see in her their own ideal of what a woman graduate of the University of Pittsburgh should be. The Omicron Delta Kappa Award is given annually to that senior who best represents the type of man the University would like to call alumnus. The awardee is chosen by a special committee of O.D.K. members. Some are of the University's faculty; others are Pittsburgh alumni. Dr. Vincent W. Lanfear, dean of men. is chairman of the committee. The coveted award is made to a student who has consistently maintained a creditable scholastic record, who possesses an affable personality, who has displayed evident leadership in extra-curricular activities. This type of man Delta circle of Omicron Delta Kappa and the University proudly cite for tribute, and for the highest of honors—the inscription of his name on a stone in the O.D.K. walk. 50 Alvin Ackermen Delwyn Anderson Hornes Arehsr Samuel Aronson Cortland Bacall Oonald B.iddock Andrew Baker Ray Bender John Beni, Jr. 8otty Biron Robert 8lack Anthony Blum Ernest Sonelli Gail Brendlinger John Brown T.

Cotj %Z r OM er3rads “I If there is one basis upon which we may consider that all men are bom with equal opportunity, it is the fact that each man has twenty-four hours to his day. The true basis of human differences, then, is that each man spends his twenty-four hours differently. You have given much of your time to activities. You stay up till after midnight working for them; you cut your most important classes for them; you belittle them, hate them, curse them, leave them. But always you return to them. Always there is something which you know you can do better than anyone else, something which will fall through if you are not there to attend to it. This is the stuff of which memories are made. Today, they furnish a detail, an anecdote. Tomorrow, after you have left, they will be the elements of nostalgia, the things that bind you to the school. Student Faculty Association Poo o. Kreimer.

A.” stands for Student-Faculty Association, for Thursday afternoon movies, pep rallies, concerts, and elections that students and faculty sponsor collectively. After the excitement of the annual independents vs. fraternities campaign, the successful candidates, thirty in number, met with the ten faculty members, and the legislature thus formed, set about discussing basic changes in the school organization. The immense task of selecting the heads of the various school dances, of Spring Festival functions, and of Senior Announcement committee, was the responsibility of the Appointments committee, headed by Rae Young. The Information Please assembly, with Concellor Bowman as the informer, was arranged to give the student body and opportunity to become familiar v ith the administration's attitudes and plans.

Nationality Rooms committee did its bit when it formally dedicated the beautiful Italian room, eleventh in the series of completed memorials. Also well supported by the student body was the Concert Hour presentation of the Foster Hall quartet of Indianapolis, a negro vocal group. No less a success in S. F. A. ventures was the pep rally preceding the Pitt-Missouri game and the Demonstrations Block, headed by Betty Sapp and Bill Morton. Summarizing this year's activities, one is impressed by the varied program of S. F. A., a program which has made S. F. A. stronger than ever on campus. COMMITTEE CHAIRMEN Stouff Tucker. Sapp. Tait.

For as Head Councilman Don Parke's salad diminishes, so unfolds plans of tentative projects. One innovation was the early December tea dance. Managed by Al Ludwig in Hotel Schenley. the affair, honoring the senior members of the gridiron squad, was enthusiastically added to other projects that have become a taken-for-granted phase of campus life. Versatile councilmen refuse to be detoured from their goal of assisting fellow students: if Wendell Dietz cannot save a freshman the price of a necktie by supplying that Ogg and Ray, Harold Byer, after investigating and judging his six-week career, may award him a golden Panther key. the first sign of an embryonic B.M.O.C.

Glasser Fostor. Brink, Dean. Hosey To the University of Pittsburgh come some 3100 women — to its undergraduate, graduate, and evening schools. The big job of the twelfth floor administration is to blend these girls of widely different backgrounds, beliefs, nationalities, religions, into a harmonious unit. To accomplish this, an organization called Women's Self-Government Association was set up twenty-nine years ago. Theoretically, every woman who enters the University is a member of this group. Actually it is governed by a smaller group of elected women. To facilitate its tremendous task, many committees are organized and the chairmen of these committees meet weekly or monthly to discuss common problems. Functioning smoothly and efficiently, W.S.G.A.'s committees supervise women's elections, arrange student-faculty meetings, oversee class activities, and guide freshman women through the difficult first year. Mary Ruth Hosey President...... Vice President Secretary. Treasurer...... Mary Ruth Hosey .....Nadine Dean .......Jean Brink .. Elizabeth Foster This year, under the guidance of Mary Ruth Hosey, W.S.G.A. has been particularly active. The social committee, in charge of Betty Toddie, opened the twelfth floor to men. This monthly open-house, complete with dancing, bridge, and refreshments, was most successful. For the more serious minded, Senior Court, with Harriet Glasser as Chief Justice, again sponsored Dr. Bowman's fireside chats. Other projects of W.S.G.A. included Dorothy Ornitz's employment clinic series, Ann Rayz's activities committee survey, and the unit work of freshman women, directed by vice-president Nadine Dean.

Elmer Bureau of Retail Training The nineteenth floor, with its atmosphere of handsome modern decorations, houses Pitt’s Retail Bureau, training ground for one of the most practical and important fields in modern education—Retail Training. It is a far cry from the classic American general store to the business of modern retailing;—merchandising, personnel management, control, store operation, and advertising. In step with the tempo of modern life, the Bureau is one of three such graduate schools in the country. Bishop Brown Because of the demand for college trained men and women in retailing, Bureau graduates are usually snapped up before graduation, have more than an even chance of landing in the sort of store work that interests them most. Pittsburgh department stores become a working laboratory for students gathered from Smith and Sweetbriar, Thiel and Texas, Miami and Minnesota, — colleges and universities from Holyoke to Vanderbilt, from Duke to Northwestern. Retail Training is a one-year vocational course with a personality all of its own. Much of the study actually goes on in Pittsburgh's downtown department stores, and includes a full time store supervisory position during the Christmas rush. Three days a week the student spends in class, two days in a local store, and one in research carried on for the benefit of the Bureau’s member stores. At the end of the year, the student has accumulated practical knowledge and experience in all phases of department store life. Three days a week The student spends in class.

Matthew Marshall Anxious to promote wallet-saving social activities and cooperation for a united school spirit, Gene Tedick and the College Association mottoed of the students, by the students, and for the students. For the first time since the founding of the organization, a permanent office was provided in 828 Cathedral. Here Matilda Helfgott filed records of experiences and problems for reference by future CA members. Another innovation was the introduction of standing committees with permanent chairmen. Thus John Hughes handled publicity and made the campus C.A. conscious. Rudy Janata acted as social chairman, making plans for the ever-increasing C.A. affairs. A get-acquainted freshman tea dance, a pep rally during the C.A. kick-off dance, a non-corsage autumn formal, and a Spring Spree tea dance, swelled the Student Loan Fund and made plenty of work for the treasurer, Matt Marshall. As the year drew to a close, the C.A. set plans for reorganization under Helen Buente's constitutional revision committee. 114 S.pp. W HW. •� • Sdmw. Fr.plp.ich, Gl..n, S..ph..„„, „e.

This year, under co-chairmen Betty Sapp and Bill Morton they twirled blue and gold capes and waved colored papers to make some spectacular formations. During the Carnegie Tech game they went patriotic and formed the American flag. Alternate rows held up red and white cards, and a group in the corner waved white stars on a blue background. Again, they gave the visiting team something to write home about when they formed a Nittany Lion for the Penn Staters. Revolving P's and brilliant yellow Panthers were a part of every game. Various colored tacks and painted seats enabled the members of the block to get into position at the given signal from Betty Sapp. The football season for Demonstrations Block leaders ended with a banquet in the Cathedral Mansions.

The Student Council assembly consists of the class officers and one representative for each fifty students. Its monthly meetings are presided over by James Battaglia and Lee Leonard. Activities of the group are not confined to formal business meetings, however. One of the most anticipated events on the social program is the annual Student Council dance. At this year's affair, February 13, in the Hotel Roosevelt, Al Andrews and his orchestra entertained the Dents and their guests. Al v as a familiar figure at Dental gatherings, social and academic.

Their life begins at 4:30 P.M. It is then that this self-governing unit arranges social affairs, taps to honorary and social fraternities, publishes the Pitt Evening News, and in general, cooperates with the administration and faculty in student matters. Yearly, men and women who have shown exceptional ability in commerce are tapped to one or more of the following honoraries, Alpha Kappa Psi, Delta Mu Delta, or Phi Chi Theta. Sigma Beta Sigma is open to engineering stu- dents. The local chapter of the American Institute of Banking annually taps students employed in banking, and Phi Delta Gamma is open to all graduate women. Social fraternities include Kedems, Pitt Women's Club, Phi Theta Phi, and Alpha Kappa Alpha. An extensive social program includes open houses in the Commons Room, a formal dinner dance, skating, bridge, and holiday parties. The Pitt Evening News, official publication of the evening classes edited by Irene Kukura, keeps the evening students informed on what goes on in the Association. Men’s Debating Robie, Tablac.

In Foster Memorial last fall, university debaters demonstrated their art before forty-five Western Pennsylvania high schools, and in December, they played host to 400 high-school debaters and coaches in their self-sponsored, non-decision tournament. Early in April, pros and cons vibrated through the first three floors of the Cathedral as representatives of approximately twenty eastern chapters of Delta Sigma Rho, national honorary speech society, took part in an invitational decision tournament. On the four-day Pennsylvania trip the varsity men debated at the University of Western Maryland, Dickinson, and Bucknell. Including this 500 miles, the 1500 mile convention trip, and an additional 250 mile barnstorming tour to Western Reserve and fourOhio high schools, their mileage read 2250 miles — slightly less than the distance from Pittsburgh to San Francisco.

Catholic students from Pitt, Tech. Duquesne, Mount Mercy, and P.C.W. compose the membership of the local chapter, the only intercollegiate group among two hundred and fifty college chapters of the National Newman Club Federation. One of the few exclusive Pitt affairs was a testimonial dinner in Heinz House on March 18, honoring Father Paul J. Rock, club chaplain. The banquet committee, Jean Hanlon, chairman, Ruth Dumm and James Dugan, arranged an entertaining program of games and dancing, and later, toastmaster William Fitzgerald introduced Dean O'Connell as guest speaker. Leading social of the year was the Intercollegiate Ball with James Dimel and Charlotte Harris leading the formal dance at the Hotel Schenley on January 10. Here, three hundred and fifty couples danced to Dick Stabile's music. To while away leisure hours, Newmanites congregate in Father Rock’s office. There, Paul Lohmeyer and Vince Matera often lead discussions of University affairs. Fo . Denny, Forroll. Abel. Pollard, Witchko. Davies, Panyity, Williams. Witherspoon Hafor, Frcehling. Burki.

While having their usual fun in intramural sports, at picnics and dances, the boys were looking forward to the annual session of the American Petroleum Institute, which this year held its meeting in Pittsburgh. Classes were dismissed for the Association so that they could attend the meetings en masse. Led by President Cy Bieleik, the organization plans provide private tutoring for its members. Another innovation they have planned is a friendship-making, study-helping group of conferences between students and department heads. 120 Women’s Speech Association Wortkin. Hansen. Jaffa Bonowif .

At a South American dinner in January, W.S.A. had as its guests men and women representatives from all city college debate teams. The dinner was followed by a panel dis- cussion led by Esther Marcuson, with Elizabeth Krowich representing the Pitt group. Late in March, four girls from McMurray College were invited to debate on the potent questions of America Union, Now. A dinner in the King Edward preceded the debate. Several times during the year, extension chairman Joyce Hansen arranged for the group to appear in debates, panels, and forums before civic, high school, and college audiences. 171 Fulton. Holloman.

As early as July of this year, president Bob Shaw appointed Al Holbrook as freshman camp manager. These two, with their committee, played host to the largest crowd ever to attend the Freshman week-end at Camp Kon-O-Kwee. Guided by a competent cabinet, and aided by capable secretaries, Bill Hammaker and Hal Viehman, the Y.M.C.A. staged successful retreats, provided for broadening study groups, conducted an instructive freshman program, and climaxed this full year with a highly-entertaining father and son banquet. On several occasions, the Y.W.C.A. joined with the men to promote interesting programs on association nights. Together with Hulda Tully, campus chairman, Chuck Vates and Paul Spray directed a campus-wide campaign to assist students in war-torn foreign countries. From the service standpoint, this cooperation project, the World Student Service Fund, was the outstanding achievement of the organization. 122 Voroch, Toohill. Conover, Westermann, Moyori, Hallock.

On Friday afternoons she ’elevated' to the twelfth floor for a cup of cocoa and cookies at the Cocoa Jive. There, she one day met Eunice B.

The organization taps male students enrolled in the School of Business Administration in both the day and evening school. Together with the alumni chapters, the members carry on an extensive program of social and professional activity. The biggest social events of the year were the formal initiation banquets held in December and April; and informal spring stag party, held in the Army and Navy Room of the Hotel Henry and a formal dance at the University Club in March. This year, the social events were directed by Herman Dietz. Professional activity, under G. Louis Troppman included lectures by prominent men, industrial trips to the J. L. Steel mills and the Post-Gazette, forums on career planning and job hunting, discussions and debates. President .............................W. Bchrenberg Vice President..........J. H.

Today its members boast that it is one of Pitt's largest dental fraternities, and that their new house on Forbes Street is the most beautiful on campus. Their material gains, however, have not outweighed their fraternity spirit or professional abilities. Next fall when the representatives of thirty-two other chapters meet in Pittsburgh for their national convention, the local Dents will exhibit both as they display the accomplishments of the past eighteen years. The A.O.'s can talk with equal facility about pedodontics or their house dances, for they have professional as well as social interests. They know a little about bowling, too, having won the Interfraternity bowling championship. Most novel of their several social affairs was their cup and saucer dance to which each boy brought a cup, and each girl a saucer. 135 Alpha Zeta Omega Schwartz, Tillman Simons, leom.

Though the furtherance of pharmaceutical knowledge is the formal aim of the group, president Dave Pearlman and the officers planned and successfully completed a broad, diversified program. Socially, the pharmacists-to-be staged dances and smokers, and were themselves entertained by their own Ladies' Auxiliary, composed of the sisters and wives of the actives. The biggest event was the Spring Formal on April twenty-fourth in the Roosevelt Hotel. Other yearly projects discussed at the bi-monthly meetings included the loan fund, which is maintained for the benefit of members, and the national convention, this year held in Cincinnati, but scheduled to be held in Pittsburgh next year with Mu chapter as the host. Also on the agenda were the initiation of tappees, pledgeship of new men. and the role that A.Z.O. alumni may play in assisting graduates to find employment. Directorum ...

For this honorary professional fraternity is primarily a graduate group, a dental society which considers the problems affecting the profession, legislation, public relations and the dental aspect, in general. Thirty undergraduate Dents comprise the preliminary chapter which maintains the fraternity house; while the graduate chapter includes more than 300 leading dentists in Allegheny County. At the national convention of Delta Sigma Delta, held in Cleveland last September, Dr. A. C. Young was elected Supreme Grand Master, highest fraternity post. His election being the second national honor for the local chapter since 1923, a banquet in his honor was held at the Hotel Schenley in February. There, members presented Dr. Young with a movie camera to help him record fraternity activities during his term of office. In addition to the banquet, the undergraduate chapter gave a dance this spring. 137 Dental Interfraternity Council Rossnor. Shumate, Poters, Myers. Choby, Klang Improve, Improve!

Each year Dean Freisell provides the all-point fraternity trophy, and the contests begin, last long, and are accompanied by frequent displays of the famous Dent spirit. Athletic competition is the chief activity v ith teams participating in tournaments of ping pong, basketball, bowling, touch football, and swimming.

Then you ought to sit in on one of the demonstration meetings of Kappa Psi. For the student pharmacologists in this professional fraternity have used the experience gained in class or as laboratory assistants to perform experiments that will contribute to their own knowledge and perhaps to the profession to which they aspire. And that is their aim, whether preparing papers to be read before the American Pharmaceutical Society, or pharmacology displays for health shows at Buhl Planetarium. Following the appointment of Bill Kappa Psi Haeckler and Bill Fleming as laboratory assistants to Dr. Claus, the fraternity planned to establish these posts as permanent ones in which Kappa Psi men might receive additional practical training. Kappa Psi has not forsaken the social aspect of fraternity life. The annual formal dance in the Keystone Hotel, April 25. ended a series of social programs which included a reunion dance, a formal at the Fort Pitt Hotel in January, a dinner-dance in February, and the traditional third degree initiation ceremonies. 139 Lambda Kappa Sigma Blumonschion.

At the start of the second semester the actives introduced the pledges to the house with a gay house dance. A winter and spring formal and two more house dances topped off the full year of festivity. But there are more serious moments over at the house on North Bellefield Street. The members proudly Psi Omega claim that of the keys given annually to the upper 12 per cent of the dental graduating class, Psi Omegas usually claim the majority. Last year one of the Psi O's took the first key and of the other three winners, two were his fraternity brothers. In their spare moments, between classes and fraternity activities, some of the Psi Omegas write for the School of Dentistry magazine. Dental Rays. 141 Hess. Carlson. Byers.

The members chuckle when they recall how Louise Negley upset a canoe, dunking neatly attired and surprised Al Glass and Ellis Van Swearingen. They smile knowingly at Milt Moskovitz's persistent denials that he edited the informative little newspaper that was distributed to the group. At a tea in the Commons Room in December, the late Howard Heinz awarded members with keys for one or two year's service in the choir. February found the group packing their suitcases and heading for New York and Atlantic City. Coming home on the train, Pop and Mom Finney led the group in the Virginia Reel in the dining car to the tune of Emil Deily's harmonica. In addition to singing every Sunday in the chapel, at special services for the student body, and various other affairs, festive parties at Bob Davis' farm rounded out the choir program for this year. 144 Manager Assistant Librarian, Orchestra ................Walter Logan Manager........Charles Dickson .................Richard Hartz Fifty proficient musicians, fifty sparkling instruments, augmented by Theodore M. Finney's directing, are a study in harmony and a symphony in blending, each time the University Symphony Orchestra performs. Its members are Pitt’s music students, whose first task it is to interpret Bach, Beethoven and Brahms, but who can, nevertheless, swing out at informal parties like the one held at North Park in November. More often the entire orchestra plays, although the string ensemble and the brass and French horn quartets have been featured in their own concerts. On April 2, the annual home concert given in Foster Auditorium climaxed the concert season. Later in the spring, the orchestra members came out from behind their own instruments to enjoy the music of another band at the spring formal. On this occasion, three-year veterans received engraved gold keys for service and ability to revamp the classics in approved Raymond Scott style, or perform the Nutcracker Suite a la Finney. J.

Pitt Players this year, under the guidance of director Buell Whitehill and president Bill McElwain, completed an exacting schedule. In addition to choosing three of the most difficult plays of the modern theatre, they took part in two other programs. Why the Chimes Rang was presented during the Christmas season in conjunction with the Heinz Chapel Choir and W.A.A. dancing classes. Leo Harter narrated, while Betty Brunk, John Glasson, Paul DeMerit, and Jules Cubernek interpreted the action by pantomime. In February, Players joined with the Heinz Chapel Choir to present the program America at Home at the Atlantic City national convention for educators. Hulda Tully and Leo Harter gave selected readings of modern poets. Taking time off, however, to entertain themselves, the Players sponsored two dances with Cap and Gown Under-gradute Club, and ended their social program with a May banquet. At this occasion, Players who had earned eight or more points in the acting, technical, or business fields were awarded keys. 148 Pitt Players Technical Group Technical Manager...........................Joe Deily Electrical Manager.........................Emil Deily Faculty Advisor...................Frank Mason It was lights! camera! action! with Pitt Players when Holywood invaded the campus. Kleig lights replaced footlights as Players deserted the stage long enough to make a movie. The film records the complete production of a play from the casting until the opening night. The Players chose Golden Boy and so the camera moved along with the routine preparations. Photographers set up their equipment for closeups of the cast during rehearsals; of Joe Diely and his crew'building scenery in the technical shop; of Emil Diely, electrician; of manager Jane Lintleman arranging the props; of Al Giass, publicity manager and Mollie Ortinberg, ticket manager, attending to the finances. Besides this project, the technical crew under Frank Mason went about their usual work of drafting, building and painting sets, and found time to build scenery and work backstage for the Pittsburgh Opera Society's production of Marriage of Figaro. DeMarco, McEIwain, Daum, Trovoioli. Duckott Anania, J. Doily With house lights down and stage lights up, Pitt Players, on November 6th and 8th, presented William Saroyan's My Heart's in the Highlands. Leo Harter, as the unrecognized but self-appreciating poet, and Harold Shapiro, his gymnastically inclined son, are visited by a bugle-blowing Scotchman portrayed by Irv Avner. Impressed by the bugle solos, Johnny and his father continue to search for the heart in the highlands even after they are evicted from their home. The actors’ difficulty lay in maintaining the sombre yet hopeful mood throughout the play. But the Players with their candid characterizations gave a professional performance. December I I th and 13th, Pitt's Players did Maxwell Anderson's High Tor. Romantic Van Van Dorn, played by Jim Dunn, tries to retain his ancestral mountain and natural way of living in the face of modern exploitation. Aided by ghostly Dutchmen stranded in the Catskills, he outwits the despoilers and makes peace with his earthly love, Judith (Louise Rowland). Best situation was when the crooked colleagues, Paul De Merit and Dan Cannon, were trapped in a steamshovel cage suspended far out over the palisades and prayed for an inexpensive salvation. Bill Patrick, first student to design a Players' set. worked successfully with the problems of an outdoor scene and a small Foster stage. iso Golden Boy , by Clifford Odets, furnished the Players with a knockout drama for the close of their season. The story of the violin player turned pugilist, his rise to financial heights and his ultimate downfall, starred Larry Morris, with Jeanine Stephenson furnishing the romantic interest. Although classed as a comedy, the three-act drama provided much pathos, especially in the role of the self-sacrificing father, played by Leo Harter. On the other hand, some good laughs resulted from the action and dialogue of Peggy Martin and Israel Grossman, as the young married couple; Allan Gould, as the bungling fight manager; and August Trovaioli as the gangster menace. With this four star performance, Pitt Players climaxed a top-notch year. Pitt Players closed the 1941 season with a Spring Festival week production of that comedy of family life, You Can't Take It With You. The story is concerned with the efforts of the slightly delirious Sycamore family to marry their daughter, Peggy Megee, to the rich boss' son, Jim Dunn. Any quiet evening at home found the happy family engaged in their various diversions: Essie, Alice Lewis, toe dancing under the tutelage of Kolenkhov, Allan Gould; Penny, played by Molly Ortinberg and Anne Tumpane, painting; Papa Sycamore, Bob Shissler. concocting firecrackers; and philosophizing Grandpa, Bill Mc-Elwain, presiding over all. Although the play was well known to the audience because of its professional production and later Hollywood version, Pitt Players injected a new spirit into the familiar situations that was good for long and loud laughs. 151 Tuckor, Stophonson.

George Hyde realized all this, so Head Over Heels is the whimsical story of Johnny Higgins, debt-ridden Daily Star reporter, madly in love with Camille, the glamorous prima ballerina of the Ballet Russe de Castle Shannon. Camille is really publisher P. G. Butterfield's daughter, Adrienne. When Johnny turns the office into a race-track trying to escape Joe and Moe, two sure-fire bill collectors, Mr. Butterfield sees red and fires Johnny. He attaches a rider. Daughter Adrienne is forbidden to see hero Higgins again. Boris Sergi Dmitri Ivanavitch Petrovsky, general director and choreographer of the ballet company, enters.

Meanwhile, such zanies as Lana Corio, Miss Flomestead of 1929 and Suzie Butterfield, a blackmailing brat, if there ever was one, are introduced. Despondent Sadie Plotgut, society reporter, has her problems. She is despondent and has problems because she can't get a man.

And it effected a complete reorganization of the Military Department when the commissioned personnel, with the exception of Colonel Wilson, were called to field duty. As a result, Col. Wilson was promoted to head the Department, and Captain Cameron, Captain Wills, and Lieutenants Dougan, Husband, Hav-lak, and Campbell were appointed by the War Department to assist him.

This year's student enrollment, highest in the department's history, was made possible through increased Federal quotas, although qualification standards were raised. To keep pace with the expansion, cadet commissions were granted to juniors for the first time. New uniforms for the Band and advanced corps members, even new metal chevrons, streamlined the University's standing army. In addition to conducting classwork and drill for the Coast Artillery and Medical Corps, Col. Wilson and Captain Cameron supervised the activities of the Pitt Band. Pitt Rifles. Scabbard and Blade, and the R.O.T.C. Rifle Team; while the coed sponsors kept up the Corps' morale. Order of the days in mid-April called for rehabilitation of cadets to uniforms after a winter layoff. This was in preparation for the annual spring inspection at which ranking Corps area officers reviewed the Coast Artillery unit.

Hell Week featured other tests, such as a written examination on military knowledge, general drill information, qualities of leadership, and the United States military affairs. The acid test of all was Hell Night. It loomed over tappees throughout the week. Their expectations, however, were even exceeded that long night in Clairton Park: and when it was all over, they were cadets in D. 160 Company, seventh regiment. Prior to this initiation, their class, numbering thirteen, had been tapped at the Scabbard and Blade dance. The thirteen were outstanding student officers in the advance R.O.T.C. course; Ralph Abele, Charles Bradley, William Cronemeyer, Gerald Haywood, George Jones, Edwin Klein, Oliver Kuserow, Albert McCardle, Milton Moskovitz, and Harold Oaks.

Gentlemen and soldiers all, proficient at drill, adept in military routine, at home on drill field or ballroom floor. In their serious endeavor, the members try to become better officers by advancing themselves in the schooling of military science, and by serving as guards of honor at University events. Socially they display a gentleman's gallantry as they escort their dates to the Little Military Ball, given annually at the Twentieth Century Club. Frequently, the officers-to-be put formality aside to become just another gang of good fellows reveling in a demonstration of their own brand of heckling of the pledges who survive a semester of rigorous drill and examination. 162 Pitt Rifles Dance Manager.........................Jack Mullin Librarian Robert Dazell Associate Manager....

Between bits of idle jabber, Gene Pyle presented chapter business. A letter from Mrs. W. M.

Compliments went to Betty Dils on her Christmas party at which gifts and original poetry were exchanged. Arrangements for a Mortar Board and O.D.K. party were made, and Betty Jane MacQueen was heard making plans for carrying through the colors of the two honoraries on her table decorations. Adele Yorio was appointed chairman for the entertainment program. The meeting ended with Mortar Boarders rehearsing a dance routine for the party at which they intended to amaze the O.D.K. boys.

There were, also, the bi-weekly luncheon meetings, and the two occasions on which members pinned the names of tappees to their giant O.D.K. key. But the event to which O.D.K. men looked forward most was the national convention held at Louisiana University March 13-16. President Rugy Aldisert represented Gamma Circle as the official delegate, and was accompanied by Irv Kaufman, Bill Patrick, Dave Buente, Cort Bacall, Joe Roberts, Al Gross, and Dave Tucker. C.

It is another dinner meeting of Owens, national honorary activities fraternity for sophomore women. Gathered around the large table, the girls listen to reports from Betty Kalish on the progress of the Owen directory—the little red and silver booklet listing his address and her phone number. President Betty Haldeman asks for volunteers to read copy, and Lois Blotter, Hazel Miller, and Alma Nicholas offer their services.

After all, the Smoker and blond Cwens are regular yearly highlights, but the order of business at one of the semi-monthly meetings is of immediate all-importance. So whether the soph BMOC's appoint Danny Mash to compile a twenty-five-year history of the honorary at Pitt or enjoy secretary Shaughency's minutes — minutes that defy education and English Composition I and 2 — the youthful activities leaders are on the job.

Archer What Phi Beta Kappa is to a College scholar Beta Gamma Sigma is to the Bus Ad student. Scholastic standing is the primary consideration, since only ten per cent of a graduating class may be tapped. A smaller number is frequently chosen, for the fraternity is proud of its selections. To encourage an early start for potential members, Beta Gamma Sigma maintains a plaque on which the names of outstanding Business Administration freshmen have been inscribed. The individual thus recog- nized by the group is given a certificate of merit. Bus Ad business provides the topic for discussions at B.G.S. luncheon meetings. Their annual dinner, held this year on March 21, features traditional five minute talks by the pledges on business and economics. Ranging in subject matter from pickles to bonds, these talks are designed to give the pledges a background and stage presence, and the activities and alumni hecklers a pleasant evening.

When Ed Trembath called for new business, members planned the informal Highland Fling and KO dances, which double-featured with the Pitt Players' productions, all for a one-dollar, doubleduty ticket! Bud Schlesinger led these socials, the first of the theater-dance mergers sponsored by the two dramatic groups. Later on, discussion centered about the smoker to welcome Edward Morgan, new dramatic-dance director of Cap and Gown, Inc. Also on the agenda were the tapping ceremonies, to be conducted on the Nixon stage after the Friday night show, and plans for the next monthly luncheon when undergraduate actors and producers would again get together to reminisce.

Nov our Owrey is not the head of a surgical society, nor was his the scalpel-wielding; he's prexy of those degreeless, beardless medicos, famed for their two point two averages and medically preferred for their character and personality. First hand witnessing of a clavicle-setting of a de-appendixizing is only an item on the honorary's year-round program. They tap in January, again on Scholars' Day, fete the fortunate few at a smoker, and follow through scribe Neal Veenis's semi-monthly postcard invitations to devote Tuesday's fifth hour to scholarship and social committee reports.

Meyers Valli Delta Delta Lambda was named and inspired by Mr. D. D. Les-senberry, the head of the Commercial Education Department. The principal purpose of this professional and honorary fraternity is to give the students of commercial education an opportunity to broaden the scope of their interests in the field and to become acquainted with leaders in commercial education. There are over 300 members, both undergraduate and graduate. Its governing body consists of the executive committee of the graduate council and officers of the undergraduate group, presided over by Jane Poinar. The activities held yearly are numerous; yet all of them help to enrich the knowledge and understanding of their particular field. At the initiation banquet last fall, Dean Jacobsen was tapped as an honorary member. Frances Rowell was chairman of this affair as well as of the dinner-dance at the spring initiation. Every month Mr. Theodore Woodward, chairman of the graduate council, edits a bulletin named Lesson” which includes special activities by members and serves as a guide to new members. At Christmas time, sobriety was put aside and the group had a party with grab bags, games, and toys. Installation of officers at Heinz House on April 22 was followed by the last affair of the year, a picnic at Mr. Lessenberry’s farm, hostessed by charming Mother Spence. This last meeting helped students to clinch friendships before the semester ended.

They learned many facts: that one must register as a law student with the state and county bar associations, that citizen and faculty sponsors are necessary, and that, in all, it is a difficult procedure. At another meeting Judge Elder W. Marshall talked about everyday happenings in the legal profession. And so the agenda went, that these students might better understand their profession as a study and a practice. Dr. Eugene A. Gilmore, dean of the School of Law, and prominent lawyers were guests of the fraternity at its annual banquet, in April. At the spring tap day exercises, John Marshall concluded its 1941 activities with the naming to membership of additional legal aspirants. President.

Its members foster high standards of scholarship and professional training. Maintaining an interest in educational activities and encouraging graduate work, Delta chapter carries out these ideals in its program. The formal dinner-business meetings feature speakers who are authorities in their fields. Dr. E. A. Dimmick spoke on the role of the teacher in the present emergency and R. Herbert L. Spencer s subject was Our Leisure, an Asset of Democracy. Although the members are primarily graduate teachers, many undergraduates are active. Evelyn Westermann, Esther Groenert, and Gina Filipponi were among the recipients of keys presented in January. Sponsoring a sidelight to regular Pi Lambda Theta activities, Betty Kimberling and Rosemarye Bunting served as hostesses at Horne's fashion show and tea in early April and when Delta chapter entertained junior women in education, Esther Glick and Margaret Kentsler aided with the program.

Koufman Latchingor. Tuckor, Fronkjton, Thigpon, Deenor, Patrick. Felton To uphold a scholarly ideal for the entire student body and a realistic interest in world problems and events, Pi Tau Phi plans included an open meeting in Stephen Foster Memorial. Bill Patrick presented Guy V. Miller, foreign editor of the Pittsburgh Press, who discussed the background of the European War. Not only two-point fivers but faculty and other students attended. Another meeting was devoted to an entertaining discussion of Persia given by Robert H. Steiner, visiting professor. Although Pi Tau Phi stands for scholastic achievement in the liberal arts College with 2.5 as their average, a glance at the activities of the members and at the interests of the fraternity prove that they are not bookworms. For instance, there are Freda Jaffe, president of W.S.A. Jane Vorech, Mortar Board member, Irv Kaufman, O.D.K. man, and Seymour Kerber, copy editor of the Pitt News, all prominent in campus activities. And to further prove that Pi Tau Phiers are not just burners of the midnight oil, take note of their spring banquet and picnic.

Reports of the fall smoker were read before the discussion of new business. Since many complex problems arise during the fraternity's free instruction to freshmen, the tutorial service was discussed. Plans for the annual spring banquet were developed, after the president had announced the speaker for the next monthly meeting. Each speaker, reminded the president, talks on a subject in his specialized field. A proposal to establish a reading clinic to improve the reading habits of students was made, but action was deferred pending further discussion. Before the meeting closed, congratulations were extended to William C. Kelly, who. with a 3.0 average, received the scholarship placque awarded annually to the freshman having the highest average.

Two meetings each month, a luncheon and a dinner meeting, were the chief activities of Sigma Gamma Epsilon this year. Held in Heinz House these gatherings featured forum discussions led by eminent geologists and engineers. Dr. Tolmochoff, formerly of the Imperial Russian Museum, and Dr. R. E. Sherrill were among these speakers. The fraternity joined with Sigma Tau and Pi Tau Sigma in May to give a dance at the Churchill Valley country club. The brothers, and the pledges who completed the initiation tests, including the construction of an autographed compass model, have decided upon a new freshman orientation program. They will also award associate membership status and A.I.M.M.E. publication subscriptions to the most outstanding freshmen in the School of Mines. President...... Vice-President Secretary....

This year's German meeting typified the idea for all the gatherings conducted by president Audrey McLaren. Guten Abend greeted the members as they arrived. After taking off their coats, they sat down to a real German Fest, a dinner of sauerkraut and Speck, wilted lettuce, coffee and apple strudle, which put everyone in a mood for the program. Gretchen Schutte led the group in singing Auch du leiber Augustien, Schnitzelbunk, and many other German songs. With Mrs. Lotte Lohstoeter and Dr. Whit-ford Shelton looking on, everyone joined in the folk dances until they were all out of breath. To relax, they sat down and listened to Paula Glaab's Information Please. Auf Wieder Sehen and Gute Nacht and another meeting of Sigma Kappa Phi comes to an end.

It functions to make the routine of thirty semester credits less tedious, and at its weekly meeting acts in the interests of the student, whether it is by realizing the dream of an Engineers’ Lounge, or organizing intramural teams. The Association sponsored two dances, and two smokers this year. Gee Skinner chairmaned the first dance. Bill Smith the first smoker; Paul Papanek and Edward Edge were in charge of the second semester affairs. The Jalopy Dance May 2 featured the awarding of a 1931 Ford as a door prize. The decision to initiate an Engineering section in the Owl was made and carried out by the Cabinet. By installing automatic coke dispensers in State Hall, they also raised funds for the conversion of Heinz House into a student lounge. Good Business men? Yes, but better engineers.

Ponro Chemical Engineers Every other week the members of the Chemical Engineering seminar hold their meeting in Mellon Institute auditorium. There, they learn up-to-the-minute information about industrial processes and become acquainted with authorities in their field. Alternate meetings, held in the Cathedral, feature guest industrialists and engineers or movies about chemical engineering problems. To maintain a well-rounded program, chairman John McKIveen frequently invites men in other fields, religion, psychology, literature, to speak. The associations and friendships made in these seminars help maintain their unity beyond the scope of mere class work. The Chemical Engineers danced at Webster Hall, April 18, and throughout the year entered teams in intramural athletic competition. Civil Engineers A seminar sports night at Trees Gym, bowling, smokers, and a spring dance. A social fraternity rushing program? No, merely a few of the outside activities of the Civil Engineering Seminar, but social pleasantries are not their only purpose. The student and faculty leaders have set out to learn the ins and outs of engineering defense, bridge construction, super highways, and dams. When J. A. Michels, editor of the ' Highway Builder'' magazine, spoke before the group, they even learned the application of engineering to journalism. 19? Electrical Engineers Transmission tie-ups, phase differences, and kilowatt hours, are familiar terms in the Electrical Engineering seminars, where stu-dens literally aim to meet problems and personalities on common ground. The problems are those dealing with the creation, transmission, and distribution of electrical energy; the personalities are eminent electrical engineers and utilities men. The engineers, however, often provide speakers from their own ranks to discuss thesis material or research. Two meetings were conducted by Eta Kappa Nu, electrical engineering fraternity to acquaint freshmen with the fraternity and to give pledges opportunity to discuss topics such as Population vs. Power Lines or Radiant Heat Energy. Industrial Engineers Are you looking for the Industrial Engineering Seminar? You might try Shady-side Academy. For with the expansion that followed the Defense Training Program, the Industrial Engineering department moved to new headquarters. The difficulty is, however, that the industrial engineers are on the move in more ways than one. In their seminars, they survey the industries, studying manufacturing processes and methods. And the best way to do this is to study first hand, so that many of the seminars are conducted in industrial plants and laboratories. In their classroom meetings, I.E. students keep abreast of the times through lectures by leading industrialists. Chairman: Otto Kobernick Seniors: 8arranto. Belt . Bilonick. Blum. Dugan. Kobornick.

Proven Mechanical Engineers Although the Mechanical and Aeronautical Engineering seminars are combined, there is a division of classes so that Juniors and Seniors meet together, while Sophomores and Freshmen conduct their own seminars. By this arrangement, the engineering problems discussed can be chosen in accordance with class and thesis work. But in addition to discussing specific problems in mechanical engineering, these seminars ore planned to provide a general cultural background. Speakers participating in this phase of the seminar program were Mr. Gerten, representative of the Blawnox Company who talked on the political and industrial situation in France, Dr. H. C. Carlson, and Dr. Farmer. Pi Tau Sigma Candidates for membership to the Mechanical Engineering fraternity, Pi Tau Sigma, have to be well-versed in the practical application of their book learning. Each of them must draw a plate of the fraternity key and have it blueprinted before he is accepted. He has the alternative of turning out a huge wooden wrench, but either article must conform to rigid specifications of engineering detail. Activities carried on by the members of Pi Tau Sigma include the editing of a departmental newspaper and management of a library. This year two banquets at the Cathedral Mansions, a fall pledge dance, and a picnic in May filled the fraternity's 1941 social calendar.

This is an inspection. may sound like a military command, but to the prospective pledges of Sigma Tau, honorary engineering fraternity, it's a simple slide rule drill. And when President Jim Bateman shouts, On your mark — go, he's not starting the 440 but just a speed test of efficiency on the slippery stick. This is only the beginning for pledges of Sigma Tau. Keeping strictly to the engineering theme, they make a carefully detailed plaque on an enormous piece of white paper, upon which they obtain the signatures of all the actives, honorary members, and alumni of Sigma Tau. While resting betv een calls, each must polish a rough bronze pyramid, the emblem of Sigma Tau, to smooth perfection. Handed in when finished, these pyramids are returned, chromium plated, to the new members at the semi-annual initiation banquets. Together with these, the pledges keep their scroll name-catalogues as a memory of carefree Sigma Tau days.

Facing one of the most formidable grid schedules in the country, Pitt's tough, and at times, forcible Bowsermen were able to struggle through with a record of three wins against four losses and an unexpected tie. Although the team surprised many experts by nearly upsetting unfavorable predictions a number of times, Dame Fortune just wasn't with them during the leap year football campaign. But the season did produce its quota of outstanding players. Added to the ever growing list of top-flight Pitt tackles, was the name of Captain Ted Konetsky.

George Kracum and Bobby Thurbon played outstanding ball but the Buckeye airraid was too hot to handle. A brief ploy-by-play description of the game might sound something like this: There goes an Ohio State forward, it's a touchdown. There’s another Buckeye pass, another touchdown. Again a pass . . . pass the aspirin. PITT 7.................. 7 S. M. U. Why did the water boy truck ' onto the field as the teom called time out?

One group thought that Pitt would win by at least seven touchdowns. The other was more conservative ond gave the Panthers only three. The Tartans thought a little differently, and the game almost ended in a scoreless tie. The day was saved though, when, in the last minutes of ploy. Pitt was able to eke out a one touchdown triumph, 6-0.

Duke sneaks a touchdown over in the first period. Midway in the second quarter, skitterbug Jack Stetler breaks loose, and tears 78 yards, one of the longest runs from scrimmage all year. Ernie Bonelli, too. turns in one of the best games of his career, trying to overcome the Blue Devils' second half lead, but the Panthers are stopped a yard shy of the goal line, and they drop another close one. ?0i Rial.

Artman The University of Pittsburgh's 1940-41 basketball season was unique, inasmuch as Coach Carlson failed to produce a new system on which to run his team. Maybe it was all for the best, because the boys seemed to do allright without a fantastic new Carl-system. With a record of 12 wins and only 5 losses, the all-senior starting team produced the best season in six years. Blowing hot and cold, the Panthers smashed some of the country’s best teams. Pitt reached the heights when they dropped West Virginia at the Stadium and Duke at Durham. Other notable victories were scored over Wisconsin, Butler, and Penn State. Poorest nights were when Waynesburg and Northwestern defeated the Panthers. 202 Doc.

But the rise of four junior stars to top national ranking made their work easier. Hap Stickel and Bullet Bill Carter drew headlines as famous sprinters all over the country. Carter tied the world record of 6.1 seconds for the 60-yard dash in the Butler relays. Stickel whipped the famed Barney Ewell to win the I.C.A.A.A.A. sprint title. The other two 204 Trogoning.

Varsity Baseball Early last March, baseball coach Ralph Mit-terling looked up and down the row of candidates standing in front of him, and breathed a hopeful sigh for the first time in his three years at the head of Pitt diamond squad. This sudden optimism was prompted by the presence of an experienced and talented team to face his stiff 1941 schedule. First there was Guy Guadagnino. a fine catcher of two years experience. Also he noticed a promising group of pitchers: Edgar Jones, Bob Malloy, and Andy Johnson, all hardened by tough campaigns in college or sandlot ball. When the coach looked over his prospective infield, he actually smiled. He could have a first string corps with Bart Brown at first, Eddie Straloski at second, John Vaiksnor at short stop, and Ernie Bonelli at third base. He also had some insurance in reserves Al Holbrook, Lefty Baker, and Larry Katz. In the outfield, fleetfooted Al Bush, hardhitting Frank Goelz, and the widely talented Jones, left him little to worry about. Certainly the 1941 season provided the most promising outlook since the renewal of baseball at Pitt, and the Penn State Lion had reason to sharpen its claws in preparation for a Panther invasion. 206 Swing hard.

The inexperienced Panther mermen started slowly, going through three meets without registering a win. However, a victory over Penn State ended this string of defeats, and later the improving Pitt swimmers surprised all by taking second in the E.S.C.A. championships. Dick Ames, Buzz Cosgrove, Joe Orloff, Al Samson, Bob Soles, and Joe Kaule did most of the point scoring during the campaign. Although the 14 victories and 16 defeats of the 1941 Panther marksmen seems to indicate a slightly sub season, this team again met and defeated many of the country's best rifle clubs. Besides dual matches with Drexel, Wisconsin, N. Y. U., and Kansas State, the Panther sharpshooters also competed with leading schools in the William Randolph Hearst Trophy matches, the National Association Rifle competition, and the National Shoulder to Shoulder Match in Washington, D. C. Veteran Larry LaSpada led experts James Tov nsend and Gerald Haywood in a close race for high rifle of the team. Other good marksmen were two crack shot newcomers, Bruno Cengia and Bill Shuck. 207 Tennis Golf Ganger, Greece, Nickeson, Trimble, Gering, Barone Kramor Rees. Glenn Seybold. Simpson Despite the loss of Joe Kristufek to the 1941 Pitt tennis team, the squad is looking forward to a more successful season than that of last spring. The return of an experienced foursome: Ed Goehring. Francis Harmuth, Frank Gaenger, and Bob Nickeson makes an improved record quite possible. With the addition of valuable sophomore talent, the tennis enthusiasts will find the 1941 team capable of upholding a fine Pitt tradition on the court. With three lettermen from the 1940 golf team returning to the links, coach Art Snyder anticipates a creditable showing during the current season. Bill Kramer, Bob Seybold, and Jim Rees make a formidable nucleus for any opposition, and with the appearance of two or three crack newcomers on the scene, the situation seems quite promising. Pitt is a definite threat in collegiate golf circles this year. 208 Intramural Athletics Jim Potts A survey of the winners in the various Intramural contests during the year just past, reveals that the titles were well distributed. One of the most surprising upsets of the Intramural sport season was the Independents' winning of the Intramural basketball championship over both the favored fraternity entry and the Engineers. In the volleyball race, Phi Gamma Delta squeezed through to the championship in the last week of the race. The Fijis also topped all opposition in the touch-football festivities. The Amity Club keglers took the bowling title by downing the Pi Lams in the season play-offs. A strong Sigma Alpha Mu squad won the badminton crown; the Delta Tau Deltas made it three in a row as they easily captured the Intramural table tennis title; to Phi Epsilon Pi went the honor of winning the first paddle tennis championship in that sport's competitive debut. MiMorling, Grady, Sheaffer. Joiophs, Stiff 209 FOOTBALL While the Punks were easing into the Independent championship of Intramural touch football, the Phi Gams had to battle all the way for the top position in the Fraternity League. Dr. Carlson's non-fraternity eleven proved their all-round superiority by placing three boys. Mel Port, Lefty Ziolkowski, and Sam Milanovich, on the all-intramural mythical squad. The Fijis were not rated much of a chance to win the fraternity football crov n in early season predictions. But, the Phi Gam boys came through, and also had two of their players, Mike Mitchell and Paul MacNeill, unanimously elected to the all-intramural ranks. TABLE TENNIS For the third consecutive year, the men of Delta Tau Delta captured the interfraternity table tennis championship. In the last match of the race, the Delt quartet, made up of Dan Cannon, Bud Hawkins, Bill Kramer, and Jim Klein shut out Sigma Alpha Mu, who placed second, and took the trophy. Dan Cannon, completing four years of competition, proved himself the outstanding player on the campus. VOLLEYBALL By sweeping through three straight games in the final match of the season, Phi Gamma Delta nosed out Pi Kappa Alpha for the intramural volleyball chaimpionship. Competition was keen throughout the race as the Phi Gams and Pi.K.A.’s battled neck and neck, the Pi.K.A.'s finally settling for second place. Out standing for the champions were Al Holbrook, Stoney Bitner, Bill Colvin, Mike Mitchell. Earl Pressel, and Joe Roberts. 210 PADDLE TENNIS With paddle tennis making its debut in the intramural program, the two-man team from Phi Epsilon Pi, southpaws Wally Hirsch and Jimmy Deutelbaum, swept through the fraternity ranks to emerge as champions. Bob Ferris and Bob Black of Phi Delta Theta, second place winners, menaced the Phi Eps, but Hirsch and Deutelbaum finished out the race with a record of thirty-three victories in thirty-six games to easily top their rivals from Dithridge Street. BASKETBALL Comparatively unheard of at the start of the race, the Independents achieved real recognition by emerging victorious over both the Electricals and the Interfraternity champions, Sigma Alpha Mu, to win the all-intramural basketball championship. In the final game of the season the Independents nosed out the Electricals, previous conquerers of the Sammies. Footballers Edgar Jones, Ralph Fife, and Bill Dutton starred for the champions while Rudy Tratar and all-intramural Hack White paced the Electricals and Sammies, respectively. BOWLING By exhibiting championship form during the entire race, the Amity Club keglers captured their second consecutive intramural bowling crown, when the Pi Lambda Phi bowlers, interfraternity champions, lost two straight games during the playoffs. Emil DeLeo, Jack Henning, Al Norbut, Ed Murphy, and Frank Franchini, composed the Amity quintet. Burt Engelsburg stood out for the Pi Lams. The remaining members of the fraternity champions' team included Lenny Wolk, Al Gross, Hershey Mattes, and Norm Feinberg. 211 Yardumian. StralosVi. Woavor.

The week the local group played host to other college clubs at the State convention saw Mary Hilda Fagan busy decorating Hotel Webster Hall and Adele Yorio planning the entertainment. Although the club, composed of all physical education majors, has the serious purpose of advancing professionalism in physical education, affairs just for fun hold a favored spot on its program. An outstanding party was the one on October 2 which introduced the freshmen to the organization.

And this year, the organization has outdone itself in trying to live up to this goal. Tournaments in which the members compete with each other for letters, intramurals in which they vie with Tech, P. C. W., and Duquesne, and sports just for the love of it are only a part of the extensive program. Bowling and basketball enthusiasts, under chairmen Harriet Harris and Mary Hilda Fagan, compete in tournaments; swimming champions-to-be hold swimming parties in Trees Gym pool, under the chairmanship of Virginia Nedet-sky; and girls who want to learn an easy way to rhythm and grace trek up to the modern Informal Parties dancing classes headed by Bernice Keuhner in a special studio on the 32nd floor. Peggy Bibza will instruct anyone who is interested in badminton; Ruth Yardumian will teach archery; and tennis groups are under the chairmanship of Vivian Schang. Members of the organization are often invited to Sports Days at other colleges, including Penn State and California State Teachers College. Health Weeks, under the direction of Dr. Auleen M. Jamison, are held several times through the year. A Posture Clinic, arranged by Ruth Steeb. was one project sponsored by the members. Working hand in hand with W. A. A. is the Outing Club which sponsors two outings a year at the Y.W.C.A. camp at Camp Pitt. In the midst of such an elaborate program, the social angle is not entirely forgotten. Square dances and a hillbilly orchestra featured the Thanksgiving Barn Dance, led by Ruth Sample; there was also a Yuletide Feast, which Harriet Harris arranged, a George Washington Party directed by Midge Anderson; and picnics at South Park. The most important event of the social season was the Bal Mystique, a formal dance which served as an occasion to welcome Freshmen early in the Fall.

Consequently, there are no varsity or school teams since this would of necessity limit the members. Believing that most of the girls are interested in playing for recreation and not for learning highly skilled methods of teaching the sports, Dr. Elizabeth Rearick, head of the department of Women’s physical education, has divided the program into two classifications. The freshman service classes provide an opportunity for freshman women to participate in sports. All action outside of classwork is related to the major program and works directly with W.A.A. The two organizations are so closely co-ordinated that there is no real dividing line between them. Members of the W.A.A. have charge of tennis, archery, bowling, badminton, riding, mod- Badminton Tennis Ping Pong Deck Tennis 2)6 ern dancing, volleyball, and basketball. They do the planning themselves under the supervision of the Physical Education department. This year began the co-recreation hour which has become very popular. During posted hours, men and women of the University may participate in sports together. Playing not for tournaments but just for the fun of it, they have thoroughly enjoyed the games of badminton, ping-pong, shuffle board, archery and lawn bowling. With our new facilities here at the Cathedral gym, there have been a greater number of participants both in classwork and in the intramural program this year than in any other year. Basketball Archery Riding Bowling on the Green For you, this is a world in which you must perform all the functions which the greater world expects of you. You smoke your cigarettes here, eat your meals, meet, argue and make decisions, all within the confines of the school. If you have come to consider your social life as something separate and apart from the rest of your life at Pitt, you have lost part of its meaning. The two are inseparable; they have been welded together in physical union. There is, in the classroom, much of human contact and in the luncheon meeting you must look for much of education. You have come to know that learning extends outside of and beyond the classroom. Once past the lecture hour, it becomes a different kind of learning, true, but it is learning nevertheless, and of itself is good. Social relationship is an art, to be pursued, studied, and appreciated. It is the basis of your living together; as such, you must understand and improve it. Panhellenic Council Rotenbloom. Trovis.

With this introduction the members of the freshman class were introduced to the officers of Panhellenic Council and the women's fraternity committee. From the receiving line, the freshmen and their mentors wandered from group to group, meeting the fraternity women and faculty advisors. Meeting the representatives of the fourteen groups wasn't half so frightening as the freshmen had supposed for Mary Hilda Fagan made them feel right at home. The hum of voices mingled with that of the soft music as the girls were met by Christine Allan and her aides, serving refreshments. After visiting and chattering for the better part of an hour, the freshmen said good-night. Betty Oils 222 ALPHA DELTA PI..... ALPHA EPSILON PHI... BETA PHI ALPHA.....

The social season was off to a start with a real, old-fashioned hay-ride which the actives held for the pledges. Dorothy Segelhorst arranged the affair. The pledges, in turn feted the actives with a pajama party early in December at which Dolores Moser planned the program and served the refreshments. In the spring, all the girls received invitations to let down their hair” at an Adagio Party. After this rough and tumble affair, the A.D.Pi's went into quite a different mood as they donned their most glamorous gowns for the spring formal. On the more solemn side, they had a Founder's Day celebration at the College Club and a Patronesses Dinner at their apartment in the Belle-field Dwellings. In June, most of the members attended the national convention which this year was held in Hot Springs, Virginia.

They sponsored a program to financially aid unusually gifted public school children and give them opportunity to continue their artisitic talents at a Pittsburgh institution. To raise money for this project Selma Shapiro and her committee planned a scholarship bridge at the Hotel Schenley on April 20. When returning from a mid-semester vacation in Florida, Sally Pittler, Bea Sheffler, and Reva Rosenberg brought home a dinner bell which now graces the dining room of the A.E. Phi apartment in the Bellefield Dwellings. This, along with a radio-victrola set won in a popular contest, new rugs, and draperies helped make the apartment complete. In celebrating the twenty-first year of Nu chapter on campus, national dean Gertrude Friedland Markel entertained the girls at the Founder's Day Banquet by comparing the beginning in 1920 with present-day activities.

Anne Logue painted chairs, Molly Rossier hung drapes, and Joyce Hansen shined the Beta Sigma Omicron national scholarship cup. Finally, the apartment was finished and for the rest of the month the girls of the ruby and pink showed off the results of their domesticity at open houses. The sixth of December found Lois Howe and Ann Carr along with actives and alumnae shaking hayseed from their hair at a barn dance in Clairton Park Lodge. Betty Kimberling acted as fun director. On December twelfth, Alpha Tau chapter celebrated Founder’s Day with an informal banquet at which Betty Jane MacQueen served as toastmis-tress. Chairman Johanna Chesnick with the Beta Sigs and their dates closed the season at the traditional starlight formal in May.

And under the leadership of Murelle Russell the girls have kept going at a fast pace this past year. To supplement the special occasions, the Chi Omega's high-lighted each month by entertaining a faculty member at dinner and a round-table discussion and they claim this program was not designed for apple-polishing. Personnel chairman Rosemarye Bunting presented Mrs. Edna T. Batz speaking on Personality and rushing chairman Martha Belle Buchanan brought Miss Helen Poole Rush in to speak on Rushing. Jane Middleton aided friendly relations between sister and brother fraternity, Chi Omega and Kappa Sigma, with a formal dance at the Churchill Valley Country Club in December. After receiving wallets on which the fraternity seal was engraved, escorts nodded approvingly at the tune That's What I Want For Christmas. In keeping with the traditional myth in the fraternity of the spring and fall Eleusian, the Chi O's celebrated these two seasons with a fall tea and spring banquet, chaired respectively by Gail Brendlinger and Gertrude Shirk.

After Hulda Tully and Joann Riddle decorated the house in festive Christmas colors, Peg Patterson and the other Tri-Delts entertained children from the Home for the Friendless. D. J. Bailey dressed as Santa Claus while Alice Day, Jean Daker, and Fran Hughes helped him pass out gifts to everyone. The Traditional Pansy Breakfast after the Friday night dance of Spring Festival Week was given by new pledges for seniors. Beginning about seven o'clock, pledges served and then gave their senior big sisters a gift with the fraternity seal and a pansy corsage. Mary Kate McMaster, Betty Toddie, and the other seniors later bid farewell as active members of the chapter and joined the alumnae group.

Later on, Adeline Applebaum led a winter house dance and 'tis said that jitterbug Ann Burke really stole the show that night. Saturday night parties arranged by Minna Kam-ber and Frances Berez brought the D. Phi E.'s closer together and proved successful. In January, Blanche Cousin was chairman of the annual scholarship bridge at the Fort Pitt Hotel. Profits from the affair went toward an award presented to the outstanding undergraduate nonfraternity woman. To celebrate the completion of exams, Matilda Kamber led the couples at their spring formal at the Pines. A purple and gold color scheme, symbolic of the fraternity, was the theme for this last and favorite dance of the year.

Kom cr The super special Delta Zeta social program opened with a formal at the Shannopin Country Club. While president Ruth Roberts and Sally Sie-bert exclaimed over each other's gowns, their escorts gazed wistfully at the dance floor. Finally, the group divided into couples and the dance began. Polly Watt and Christina Allan appreciated the candy received from newly wed Mary Wilcox Meyers, but they still looked lonesome for the third member of their triumvirate. Festivities for the week-end of the Tech game began with a pajama party at the house the night before the game. By the time of the Saturday night dance, Evely.n Westermann and Bobbie Birnie were trying to hide the circles under their eyes. January 21, the Delta Zetas celebrated their twenty-fifth anniversary on campus with a dinner at the house. Betty Maits planned the affair which featured the rose, their floral symbol. Betty Jane Thatcher, Grace McCombs, and Betty Maits made attractive bridesmaids as they attended Kay Stoltz, last year's president down the middle aisle. In the midst of all this social life, the Delta Zetas found time to study, and were rewarded with the Panhellenic Scholarship Cup. The lamp is burning brighter than ever.

In memory of Nancy Hiles, last year’s president, who died during the summer, a bronze plaque was placed in the chapter room. The name of each year’s outstanding senior will be inscribed on the plaque. This year, several of the girls are eligible for this honor because of their activity in the fraternity. Ginny Vinnedge was chairman of the fall pledge tea, the first social event of the season. Mary Lewis planned the entertainment for the fall initiates, and Margaret Gibson proved how much fun a scavenger hunt could be. When the district president of Kappa Alpha Theta visited the house, Rhoda Plummer and Rose Brennan honored her with a tea. During the Christmas vacation, actives held a slumber party directed by Harriet Glasses Tish Hamilton was chairman of an informal dance and Kitty Koontz led the Spring Formal at the Field Club to close the social season.

First Lady in the order is prexie Ruth Beachler Taano who was married last August. Gene Pyle and Beth Hughes are both wearing rings, and Jean Geib, now wearing his” fraternity pin, will soon join the diamond ring rank. So it is entirely appropriate that the Kappa's presentation of Good Housekeeping won honorable mention in the Panhellenic sing contest held in February. Also apropos of their newfound domesticity is the interest they all took in adding the maple furnished chapter room. To get practice in the domestic arts, they held several social affairs. An open house began the whirl. Later, fraternity rivalry was forgotten as they feted the Thetas at a dance. Soon after, the fathers were guests at a banquet planned by Sue Rigby and Nancy Sundstrom. A Kappa-Delt banquet for the faculty held at the Delt house highlighted the social season. Gene Pyle was the Kappa chairman.

In April, the alumnae and actives presented a play, The Ghost's Train by Robert Allan Geen of Kilbuck fame at the Congress of Clubs. Jean Doehla promoted the sale of tickets from the active chapter while the alums headed the actual cast. Janet Collins was married in October with Mary Alma Olander acting as maid of honor and the rest of the chapter serving as hostesses at the tea and reception following the wedding. A bridge at Rosenbaum's in January for the benefit of the national scholarship fund was chaired by Mary Ellen Tritsch. Tea and cookies, cards and a clever program were enjoyed by everyone—actives, alums, and members of the Mother's club. In keeping with the American custom of moving every May first, Phi Mu's took up a new residence at The Gables and the furniture, trophies and what-nots from their former place soon made the apartment complete. Peggy Woodside and Gerry Steinacker cleaned, painted and worked very hard along with the other girls to have everything done before exams and their closing spring formal. 8etty Bailey President.......................Betty Bailey Vice President............Angeline Coliguiri Secretary..........................Geraldine Steinacker Treasurer.................Mary Ellen Tritsch 23? Steinacker. Woodside Celiquiri, Welke. Doehla, Bailey. Olander Even before school started the Phi Sigs made it quite apparent that they were on the march. They were the first women's fraternity in the city to do volunteer work for the Red Cross by knitting and making surgical dressings. Starting this project last summer they continued with it throughout the year. During Christmas vacation, Leona Lieber-man, Marion Weiss, Tillie Helfgott, Jane Kan-del, and the Nydes twins took themselves off to St. Louis and the National Convention. Here, they welcomed three newly organized chapters. Here, too, Isabel Nydes accepted the impressive national efficiency cup for lota chapter. Parents of active Phi Sigs also played a part in this year's program. In April, the Dad's were feted by their daughters with a Father's Steak Banquet at the Hotel Schenley. The mothers were not forgotten for a bit later they had flowers, poetry, speeches and refreshments at the Mother's Day Luncheon. Gladys Silberman kept festivities going at the William Penn for this most successful of Phi Sig luncheons. K Isabel Nydes Phi Sigma Sigma President....... Vice President.. Secretary .......

Their extensive local project was the Margaret Enright Memorial Fund scholarship v hich is given every Scholar's day to a deserving Sophomore woman for use in her junior year. At Christmas time, Mary Lou Walters helped collect dolls for the Catholic charities to give to poor children. Mary Ruth Hosey and Rosemary Sullivan experienced real pleasure as aids in this service project. T. P. A. enjoyed the Mardi Gras party sponsored by the alumnae just before vacation. This traditional affair saw the T.P.A. residence decorated in typical Mardi Gras splendor with real open house hospitality, Southern baked ham, and colorful frivolity. Their social schedule included a winter and spring formal at the William Penn, neat teamwork at the Sadie Hawkins party, and riotous times at house dances. Then back again to Chippewa, the T.P.A. cottage on Chippewa Lake near Cleveland, where Alice Lally, Mary Hilda Fagan, and Virginia Halen got plenty of swimming, sun tan, and relaxation from their strenous senior year.

Cobwebs, dust, sheet-covered furniture, dangling strips of wallpaper, and the writhing window entrance were inescapable at their Haunted House Party, spirited by Midge Anderson. Julia Clemens' ghostly sound effects had everyone screaming in horror. The day of the Penn State game found the actives of Zeta Tau Alpha bickering with their sisters and the Sigma Nu's from State. The girls enjoyed brunch at the house and then left arm-in-arm to out-cheer each other at the game. Fun and fellowship was caroled loud and long at the Christmas winter formal at the University Club. Martha Wandrisco made arrangements for the orchestra, refreshments, and favors while Betty Larson and Margie Winter greeted actives, alums, and their dates. Dessert at the house before Panhel Ball prepared by Betty Dils, Loisbell Pryor, and Betty Duffield added to fraternity friendships and a perfect dance. ■n t Julia Clemens Zeta Tau Alpha President ....

Gardner The only good precedent is a broken precedent, according to IF Council, long proud of its independence and progressiveness. Meetings are not the perfunctory women's book-review club type; representatives are not the lackadaisical, lame-duck congressmen. Instead, they are conscientious, introducing proposals related to every phase of fraternity life. Motions are made, discussed, passed, and so . . . An educational program, directed by Jack Stauff, was designed to eliminate the confusion of rushing and pledging. The series of functions gained campus prominence when freshmen were entertained in early October. A tea dance in Webster Hall and a style clinic, featuring Eskie's latest toggery, headed the program. To facilitate the cooperation of the pledges of the thirteen groups comprising fraternity council proper, a pledge union was organized. Objectives included improved faculty and Interfraternity Council Alvin Ludwig 240 alumni relations, and higher social and scholastic standards. Progressive pledge dances were among the first events on the group's calendar. One more step taken to strengthen the Greeks' place in the sun was the conference between Chancellor Bowman and the Council concerning the ideal fraternity row. Members were assured of the administration’s interest in a plan for construction of more adequate housing facilities. After the annual Christmas drive for con- tributions for the Pittsburgh needy, the Greeks combined frat songs with carols as a part of the sing and swing of the Yuletide Festival. The Hotel Schenley was the locale. Jimmy Joy and company the band, Larry Katz, the chairman. February found fraternity men swamping florists with orchid orders for Rudy Janata's sophisticated but gay version of the IF Ball. Harry James supplied the jive.

Rush week was a busy time with a fathers’ smoker and a stag barbecue at South Park. Prexy Bob Jones proudly pointed out his ODK boys, Bob Shaw and Dave Buente, introduced Bill Sheris, editor of the Owl, and paraded the three varsity footballers, Bud Hawkins, Bill Benghauser, and Jack Stahl before the eyes of dazzled rushees. Sprinting at the finish with a dinner-dance at St. Clair Country Club, they finished first in the race for new blood.

Bull sessions around the Kappa Sig fireplace, a banquet with all the fixings, and an informal smoker added to the fellowship and fraternal background of the pledge night program. Then activity went back in theme to 1400. Pictures and an alumni lecturer recreated the original mystic initiation with movies of old Bologna. To climax the evening, the whole group, with the awed pledges in the center, moved into the darkened chapter room. What went on behind the doors is a secret to men outside of Kappa Sigma, but the pledges boast that it is the grandest ceremony on campus. Sfawart, Hermann, Frankovich. Bauer. Shirinq Perko, Redmond.

Normal procedure for the last three years has been to arrange with officials to call for the young charges early Saturday morning. Leading off with a brunch, thence to the Stadium, followed up by all the cocoa, cookies, candy, and Glenn Miller that they can consume. This year, laughs Wally, the kids swarmed the gameroom; billiard cues, ping-pong racquets, Pet-tyiana, felt the wrath of boisterous youth. And the fellows loved it! George Bunder, Lew Lovell, Bill Wilson all romped and rollicked a la Katzenjammers. No coincidence is IF Council's adopting the idea, lock, stock, and barrel with Wally heading the project.

Perhaps because of the senior leadership of Jim Smith, Jimmy Jacobs, Merge Metzer; certainly because everyone from the pledges to the chef have a part in them. Unique, these gatherings, however, because of their usefulness. Herbert Nicholas started one, and out of it grew the Interfraternity Pledge Council which not only planned to honor outstanding pledges with trophies, but also sponsored a progressive dance in February. From another bull session emerged the Formal Triad dance, with Pitt’s own Sigma Chi’s and Tech's Beta Theta Pi's joining the Phi Delts at Webster Hall in the first interfraternity affair of its kind in this district.

Ruono, Riomor Phi Epsilon Pi To Phi Epsilon Pi, hell week meant more than an opportunity for hazing, for both the house and the pledges benefited from the tradition'' which qualified the pledges for brotherhood. On the one hand, all the needed repairing and improving was done gratis from spring housecleaning to redecorating the chapter house. On the other hand, the pledges were brought into closer unity with themselves and with the brothers as they solved common hazards, not the least of which was the hell night treasure hunt which climaxed the four-day ceremony. When, however, the pledges had completed their ordeals, they were able to take part in the Phi Epsilon Pi social program which highlighted a series of thematic dances beginning with a Nautical Pledge Dance in November, a barn dance. A New Year's Eve formal at the William Penn, and a Spanish Dance at which professional dancers taught the South American way.

Impromptu wisecracks provided almost as many laughs as the actors. Cigarettes and overstuffed chairs provided a comfortable, smoke-filled atmosphere for the bull sessions where such serious problems as the relative merits of LaMarr and Grable and Pitt's basketball chances in the N.C.A.A. tournament were discussed. The brothers and pledges paused only long enough to consume scores of weiners and cokes. A sometimes harmonizing quartet in the corner led the boys in a tuneful rendition of The Sweetheart of Phi Kappa, as the fraternity brothers finally dispersed for the night.

For that night, the fraternity song team harmonized its way into first place at the Interfraternity Sing and Swing. Coached by Tommy Stephenson, author of several Cap and Gown hits, the group sang Down in Old Virginny, and the First Noel to win the cup. The Pi Kappa Alpha team was not a planned organization; it developed out of the competitive singing between pledges and brothers at house affairs. By the time the Sing came around, however, tenors John Syka and Dick Fair, baritones Bob King and Frank Mateer, and basses Carl Anderson, Lloyd Carlson. Dan Mash and Stephenson had formed the A Capella octette which won the competition. They're proud of the fact that they won with their own arrangement of a fraternity song. Williams, Elmer Bailey. G.

For undoubtedly some Pittite will leave the campus-famed dining hall to adjourn to the living room, light up his pipe, listen to the latest swing recordings, and join in the bull session exclusively styled the PI LAM way. Even the pledges radiate charm! compliments Big Man On Campus, as a cub-PI LAM skillfully maneuvers dessert past a vest unsmirched by soup or gravy. Whether due to the chef, Sully Loeb's dimples, or Al Gross’s Panther-plagiarized gags, the title of most sociable, earned annually at open-house time, smoothly describes the lads' calling. So perhaps it's better that the fellows can’t cook! Larry Katz is more at home in the Tuck Shop, Irv Kaufman comfortable checking galley-proofs. Imagine Al Spitz brandishing a frying pan! No, indeed, the kitchen isn't for them! w President ......................Carl V. Stein Vice President..........Sherman I.

Collar buttons, cuff links, studs, and boutenniers suddenly assumed major proportions as the dress parade began. Which all adds up to a formal dinner dance held at the lion-guarded house on Bellefield Street. After food, singing, and relaxation in the dining room, the boys escorted their dates to the dance floor to truck, trip, or tango as befitted the tempo of an allright band. While precision stroker Bob Lotz and side pocket Chuck Robinson took over the billiard room and offered free lessons to one and all of the non-dancers. Later, Dick Gardiner presided at the midnight ginger ale and cookie feast. The S.A.E. brothers are willing to bet that future pledges are, going to get their old tuxedos pressed, going to sew that button on their vest, going to shine their shoes and look their best, cause the formal dinner dances are really going to town.

Gardnor, Davis Sigma Alpha Mu Among the activities of Sigma Alpha Mu fraternity men, an enthusiastic and successful participation in athletics played a significant role. Paced by Red Silverman and Lou Mendlow, defending champions in the interfraternity mushball league, the S.A.M. team won its second consecutive first place trophy. Making certain that their house would not fail to have a new trophy every season, Norman Sapolsky and Henry Nemrod won both the inter-fraternity and all-intramural badminton crowns during the fall season. The winter campaign found the Sammies leading the interfraternity parade in basketball. Hack White, Morris Mayer, Harry Abramovitz, Bob Col-tin, and Melvin Frank swept through all opposition without a defeat in the major indoor sport. The success of these Sigma Alpha Mu star athletes was inspired by the whole-hearted backing of non-playing brothers. President Secretary Treasurer Harold Wintner . Henry Nemrod ....

Leo Vonfeld Sigma Chi The scholastic honor of Sigma Chi is at stake, her IF ranking threatened by a dozen rivals, reported Chairman Jim Householder to his scholarship committee. And so the study wizards planned a campaign. It has paid dividends. The frat ranked consistently among the three highest on campus in scholarship. For six years it held first place in its national fraternity district, and last year was third in national Sigma Chi ranking. The year before, the boys won the Interfraternity Scholarship Trophy, the Province Scholarship Award, and the Harvard Group Scholarship Trophy: three tributes to their gray matter. That is the record. Nor is it a case of all study and no play. The Sig Chi social calendar included a Father and Son Banquet, participation in the Fraternity Open House after the Penn State game, and occasional house dances. Jordan Schaughency. Atkinson.

Pitcairn, Owrey, Giasson Theta Chi In obvious disregard of the dignity and sophistication of the annual Theta Chi spring formal, brothers and pledges, mostly pledges, crawled in shorts and stiffly-starched formal shirts under beds, bureaus, and desks on their hands and knees. For on this of all nights, Al Ludwig and his studs had parted one from the other. Bill James became the man of the hour; he arose, clutching the elusive jewelry. The lost studs episode was already completely forgotten when actives and alumni arrived with their dates at the Churchill Country Club. After the formal dinner, Al Ludwig, retiring president, reviewed the year's progress and expressed the good v ishes of graduating Theta Chis to his successor, Harold Oaks. Then the executive board presented a gold key to that freshman whom they considered the most outstanding of his pledge class. As the music faded into the June evening, the fellows chatted quietly between dances of the close of another year in the life of Alpha Beta chapter. All too soon, the brothers waltzed to melodious Stardust. The last goodbyes were exchanged and Theta Chi had disbanded for the vacation.

I should like to express the sincere gratitude and appreciation of the staff of the 1941 Owl for those who have worked behind the scenes. WILLIAM T. SHERIS, Editor. Chancellor John G.
