It was fated to become a university with a total enrollment of more than eight thousand full-time and part-time students in its various schools and colleges, including a College of Arts and Science for men and women, an unexcelled School of Music, an equally distinguished School of Medicine and Dentistry, a Graduate School, and University School. The history of the University of Rochester is a pageant of people and progress. It bears the imprint of leaders in education, industry, and social serviceg it carries the names of men and women recognized for their fore- sight-Anderson, Hill, Morey, Rhees, Eastman, and many more. Today that university stands high in its field, proud of its attainments in both teaching and research. Its infancy is a thing of the past, and yet Rochester con- tinues to grow. Each day will see another advance, great or small, toward a goal which she ever sets just beyond her reach. And grow it must, for there are many present policies seriously questioned. Some believe that too much time has been spent teaching the superior student rather than the average undergraduate. There has perhaps been a lack of emphasis on those things outside the curricular assignment, and too small an amount of support, both financial on the part of the school and personal on the part of the students, is given to those organizations through which the university is repre- sented to the public. We have faith that the changes will be made, and we know that only through the critical attitude which the university holds toward itself can it continue to progress. The future will bring new problems-fewer large donations so necessary to a private university, nationwide attempts to socialize education as related fields, and many others. But we are confident that Rochester will gain in strength and that the next cen- tury will be marked by even greater advances. , KX X Xe. X veg' 'Rs X TI? QB f sg H , u -1 -.'

The people of this area felt the need of a university of their own, and several attempts were made to establish such an institution in Rochester. How- ever, it was not until the close of the decade that a movement, sponsored by Baptists, for a Univer- sity of Rochester, was successful. The first con- crete result of these formative efforts was the granting of a provisional charter by the New York State Board of Regents on 31 january, 1850. As the year progressed, the University-to-be took shape: it would be a predominantly Baptist institution, although open to all, it would offer a sound, liberal, practical type of higher education, it would be a separate institution, independent of any connection with Madison QColgatej Univer- sity, as had been suggested. There was considerable discussion as to the school's location. A prophetic note was sounded when someone suggested the area next to Mount Hope Cemetery with these words: Mount Hope: . . . a resort of perhaps six to ten times as many strangers visiting the city as any other place or object. This cemetery ground would be nearly as valuable to the university, for the use of the students in rambling, as if they owned itg and the college ground adjoining it would be very appropriately situated .... This cemetery will forever be a point of increased attraction. . . However, the old United States Hotel was finally chosen as the University's home, and served in that capacity until 1861. A staff that included Asahel C. Kendrick, John F. Richardson, John H. Raymond, and Chester Dewey was secured, a curriculum was set up that offered both B.A. and B.S. degrees, Ira Harris, one of the University's founders, was appointed Chancellor until a president could be secured, and on 4 November, 1850, the University of Rochester ! opened its doors to its first stu- 5 dent body of eighty-two. U The University started with assets which were to prove invaluable in providing a strong and per- manent foundation. The staff was an exception- ally fine one, the United States Hotel was, for The faculty of the university in 1880 those days, an excellently-suited building for the young school, and the founders of the University, as well as the general population of Rochester, demonstrated an impressive affection for and pride in their new institution. This impressive beginning was soon recognized by the granting of a permanent Charter by the state Board of Regents on 14 February, 1851. By this time, the school boasted an endowment of S140,000, and had assumed a place among the more progressive institutions of the country by adopting the elective system for the last two years of study. At the first commencement, in july, 1851, Henry Ward Beecher delivered the principal ad- dress. The size of the audi- enc es attending the ceremony indicated that the University had already become an im- portant and respected part of Rochester life. The search for a president for the University of Roches- ter ended with the choosing of Martin Brewer Anderson in 1853. His formal in- stallation took place at the commencement exer- cises in 1854. A member of that class of 1854 was Henry Strong, later to become president of the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe Railroad and a generous donor to the University. At this time, too, John H. Raymond, one of the original faculty, left Rochester to assume the presidency of Vassar College-the first of a long series of faculty mem- bers and graduates to become heads of other schools. These were days of rapid growth and develop- M. B. Anderson President 1853-88 Early gridiron sportsmen ment for the University of Rochester, and the State of New York recognized the new institu- tion's worth in 1857 when it gave the school 825,000 Cprovided an equal amount was raised by the Universityj. Many present-day activities were initiated in these early years: the first issue of INTERPRES came out in 1858, and several of today's fraternities were established during the first decade. By 1860, the enrollment stood at 165, more than double the original number. In 1861 the University moved to what is now the Prince Street campus Con land that had been The undergraduate body in 1879 given by Azariah Boodyj, occupying Anderson Hall, the first college edifice built upon that site. But hardly had the school been established there when the Civil War broke out, disrupting the steady progress that had marked the decade of the 'f1fties. Like all American colleges, the University of Rochester suffered during the Civil War. Many of its students, teachers, and graduates served as oiiicers in the United States Army Cthe school and the city were strongly abolitionistj. After the con- clusion of the war, Rochester once more con- tinued to expand, but at a slower pace than in the previous decade. The most important faculty additions of the period were Professor William C. Morey in 1869 and Professor Henry F. Burton in 1877. In Octo- ber, 1873, the UNIVERSITY RECORD, a monthly newspaper, was started, developing in 1881 into the CAMPUS of today. The second plant addition to the Prince Street Campus came in June, 1876 with the opening of Sibley Hall. In 1878 the twenty-fifth anniversary of Martin Brewer Anderson's presidency was celebrated. By this time Doctor Anderson had become one of the best-known and most respected college presi- dents in the country. To partially aid his unre- mitting efforts toward the expansion and improve- ment of the University of Rochester, the alumni raised and p r e s e n t e d S260,000 in x in 1880, which X cleared up - gf 'gym all past debts ' f3:.w::.'i' of the Uni- f versity and assured for her the sound financial position which has continued to this day. 1887 saw the addition of Reynolds Memorial Laboratory to the Prince Street campus. The fol- lowing year, because of ill health, President Anderson resigned. He consented to stay on until a new University head was selected, however, and in 1890 David Jayne Hill, 40-year old presi- dent of Bucknell University, and one of the most promising young American educators, became the second president of the University of Roch- Anderson Hall in the 1880's ester. The joy at the selection of the new president was tempered by the news of President Ander- son's death in February, 1890. President Hill had to deal with several problems upon his assumption of the presidency of the University. Arnerica's industrialization had brought a demand for a greater role for science in education, and to meet this President Hill in- stituted an extensive revision of the ciu'riculum into four major courses: Classical, Latin, Greek, and Scientiic. By 1894, more than two times the number of courses offered in 1887 were available. At this time agitation began for the admission of women into the University. Although nothing was done until 1900, President Hill touched upon this issue at the 1892 commencement: We must consider . . . the question of the admission of young women to the university. Give us money, gentlemen, and we will take care of your daughters. There shall be no fraud or deceit about it .... Honor, truth, virtue, loyalty, and business methods will prevail. Still another issue, that Azariah Boody of Baptist sectarianism in the University, was settled by definite statements by Presi- dent Hill and members of the board of trus- tees, and since then the University has never been considered as anything but the leading educational institution of the city of Rochester as a whole. In 1891, the Biology laboratory on Prince Street was opened. At the 1893 World's Co- lumbian Exposition in Chicago the University pre- sented an exhibit which won several awards. In 1896, after six years of service, President Hill resigned, later to become Assistant Secretary of State of the United States. The years from 1896 to 1900 were dominated by the search for a new president. Professor Samuel A. Lattimore served as acting president from 1896-1898, and Professor Burton followed in a similar capacity for the remaining two years of the century, both doing excellent jobs. In 1899, the University Council, which eventu- ally evolved into today's Board of Control, was formed. Susan B. Anthony Early view of Sibley Hall and drive In 1900, women were first admitted to the Uni- versity. The semi-centennial celebration of the school was held during that year, featuring Assis- tant Secretary of State Hill, and Theodore Roose- velt, then Governor of the New York State, as speakers. It is remarkable that 1900, the half-way mark in the University of Rochester's first century, should actually have been so significant a year. For it was in 1900 that Rush Rhees became the new president of the University, and the school entered upon the period of expansion that trans- formed it from a good local college into one of America's great institutions of learning. An indi- cation of Rochester's new status was offered at President Rhees' installation, present were the presidents of Colgate, Vassar, Hobart, Cornell, Saint Lawrence, Alfred, Columbia, Chicago, and Smith. Rally at the old Alumni Gymnasium In 1903 the University gained a new bene- factor-George Eastman, who gave 860,000 in that year for the laboratory, finished in 1906, which bears his name. In 1905 Andrew Carnegie gave 8100,000 for a science building, and in 1909 the Morgan Fund assured adequate education for women in the University. The story becomes one of continuous plant addition and endowment growth after this. A million dollars was given by john D. Rockefeller's General Education Board in 1912. Kendrick Hall, then used as a men's dorm, and the Art Gallery were built in 1913, the latter enlarged in 1926. Catharine Strong Hall was opened in 1914. America's entry into the World War brought 862 Rochester men into service, and a temporary halt on expansion, but the decade of the 1920's brought Rochester's final development into national significance. A Victory Endowment Fund drive in 1919 netted 8800,000 in six days. The Eastman School of Music, incorporated into the University in 1921, was joined by Eastman Theatre, seating 3,400, in 1922. Gifts of 85,000,000 from George Eastman, a like amount from the General Edu- cation Board, and 81,000,000 from Mrs. Gertrude Achilles and Mrs. Helen Strong Carter launched Rochester's medical school in 1925-from the first, one of the nation's finest. Early in the 1920's it became apparent that the Prince Street campus would not be able to absorb the rapidly growing men's and women's colleges. A movement to establish a new men's campus culminated in the purchase of the Oak Hill Golf Club for the new site. A ten-day drive for the raising of funds toward the financing of the new campus netted over seven and a half million dol- lars from 13,651 subscribers-another indication of the place the University had achieved in the life of the city of Rochester. George Eastman Eastman Theatre and School of Music On 21 May, 1927, ground was broken for the new River Campus. Three years later, on 10 October, 1930, the completed plant was dedicated. Boasting a brilliant faculty, an extremely able President, and one of the finest college plants in Strong Memorial Hospital in construction the country,Rochester played an important part in American edu- cation during the thir- ties. The Institute of Applied Optics, found- ed in 1928 and headed by Brian O'Brien, the Physics department with men such as Lee Du Bridge, the Engi- neering School, the History department-these were but a few of the University's divisions which gained a reputation for excellence. , George Eastman, who had played a tremendous part in the new growth of Rochester, died in March, 1932. Altogether, he gave the University nearly 40 million dollars, and established it as the school with the highest per capita endowment in the world. Dr. Rhees retired in 1935, and was succeeded Rush Rhees President 1900-34 Cutler Union, College for Women the following year by Alan Valentine, brilliant young Master of Yale's Pierson College. The same progressive, sound growth of the University continued under the new administration. Development in both Science and the Humani- ties continued in the late thirties. A cyclotron was added to the Physics department, and a unique system of Honors Seminars was introduced for certain Liberal Arts courses. More and more col- leges and universities took Rochester faculty members as their presidents: Wells, Purdue, Cal Tech, and Tufts are a few of the recent ones. The Second World War saw the University of Rochester make significant contributions to victory in the fields of Optics, Medicine, Physics, and Chemistry. In 1942 the School of Graduate Studies, which had been formed in 1937, was re- organized as The Graduate School. This soon led to Rochester's inclusion in the select Association of American Universities. Today, the University of Rochester is stronger than ever. Its importance as a scientific center has V, .,- N J cs, The Quadrangle, College for Men been immeasurably enhanced by the construc- tion of the new cyclotron, the second largest in the world. It has the respect of educational America, but it is not going to rest on its reputa- tion. Rochester is going forward, forward in the spirit of George Eastman's words: We are all set now to develop our university on the broadest lines and make it one of the outstanding universities of the country. By that I do not mean one of the largest, but one of the highest rank in all the fields which it has entered. N fl Lk .

Alan Valentine has brought a progres- sive, yet essentially level-headed and sound approach to the problems of university edu- cation, and has been markedly successful in meeting those problems. Such innovations as the Honors System of seminars and furthered ' ' e and place of scientific recognition of the valu , training in a twentieth-century university, developed under President Valentine's ad- ministration, are indicative of an outlook perimentation or adapta- that is unafraid of ex tion to changing conditions, At present President Vale ,V as chief administrator of the Economic Co- operation Administration in The Nether- lands, and will return to active leadership of the University in September. ntine is serving Dean J. Edward Hoffmeister College qf Arts and Science One of the most popular persons in the Univer- sity is Edward Hoflimeister. As the competent Dean ofthe College ol' Arts and Science, and an eminent geologist and educator, Dr. Hoffmeister commands the respect of everyone who knows him. But the affection with which he is universally re- garded is a result of his own warm, approachable personality. Dean Lester 0. Wilder College for Men, One of the most diflicult and delicate positions in the University is that of Dean of the Men's Campus. The holder of that post must face the dual problems presented by the student body on the one hand. and the administration of the campus on the other. Lester O. Wiilder assumed the posi- tion in 1943, and since then has done a remarkably fine job. He has evidenced a sensitive understand- ing of the desires and rights of the student body and has been a loyal and good friend of every Rochester man without sacrificing one of his high ideals of education. Dean Janet H. Clark Collegefor Women The city of Rochester has always been intimately connected with the movement to increase oppor- tunities for women in our society. This has been reflected in the College for VVomen of the Univer- sity of Rochester, which has steadily grown in reputation, quality, and scope. janet H. Clark has been part of this growth, both as an outstanding teacher of bio-physics and as Dean of the College for Wlomen since 1939. Her conscientious, effective performance of her duties has won her the admira- tion and love of all the Prince Street Campus. THE WOM EN'S STUDENTS' AS SOCIATION President .......

Although each group acts as an independent organiza- tion, the three work in close co-Operation throughout the year and together are responsible for the supervision and regulation of all campus activities requiring financial support as well as for the determination Of all policies of the undergraduate College. Comprised of seven students, three administrative members, three faculty members, and one alumnus, the Board of Control is responsible for distributing the income which it receives from student activity fees and gate receipts among all campus activities requiring financial support at the College for Men. In addition to exercising financial control, the Board aids in the Organization, planning, and management of the numerous campus activities and Of the athletic program. Acting as the liaison unit between students and the Adminis- and Board of ontrol tration, the Students' Association of the College for Men is designed to represent student interests in the formulation of new policies of the undergraduate college. The SA this year sponsored its usual number Of traditional college functions and worked in co-Operation with the Administration and the Students' Association On the Prince Street campus in inaugurat- ing the very successful convocation programs. The Students, Association of the College for Wfomen serves much the same purpose as does that On the River Campus, but in addition to its other activities exercises financial control, being wholly responsible for the distribution of funds received frOIn the womens student activity fees. The SA Board is com- posed Of its five Ofiicers elected by the entire student body, two faculty members chosen by the Board itself, and representatives Of the four classes and Of important student groups on campus. The Students' Associations On both campuses worked this year in co-Operation with the National Students' Association and took an active part in several NSA conferences.

Sophomore Women The Class of 1951, forewarned about the traditional financial strain of putting out a yearbook, began forearming themselves as sophomores. Climaxing the fall activi- ties was a unique Sock Dance, sponsored by Lucky Strike, and a profitable Baked Goods Sale. Another dance, this one with a Night Club motif, highlighted the spring activities. The sophomores chose a newly designed class ring which may in turn be chosen by future classes, and on Moving Up Day they put aside their red tassels for the junior purple, already plan- ning bigger and better events for the Class of '51.

Freshman Men The Class of 1952 has statistically baffled the administration by its paradoxical scholastic record. Rated the best class in University history as a re- sult of comprehensive college entrance examina- tions, the Class completed its first term with four of every ten men below a 1.0 factor or with failures. Causes of Frosh academic distress are believed to be caused by lack of preparation in the secondary schools or inability to acclimate to college life. But whatever the cause of scholastic inaptitude, the Class demonstrated its potential promise by active support of university functions. With the return of younger men, College spirit received something of the vigor of pre-war years. 0 F F I C E R S President . . ..... PETER N ACHTWEY Vice-President . . . WILLIAM NEEL Seerelary . .

This self-perpetuating group, com- posed of approximately sixty women from the sophomore. junior. and senior classes, was organ- ized with the intention of supplementing the orientation program offered by the -Iunior Sisters. Each girl in the group is assigned four or five freshman counsellees, whom she meets at a series of Freshman Wfeek luncheons sponsored by the SA, WAA, and YWCA. In 1948-1949 the program was headed by Carol Lendrim, a senior. Fzrml Rum, Lijft lo 1?1'gl1l.' B. Knutli, Boutin, P. Costello, E. Babcock, Nl. Yanselow. G. Glenn, Allen. Swroml Razrx' ff.

The duties of the Committee consisted of enter- taining the new men, taking them on tours of the campus, and introducing them to upperclassrnen and members of the faculty. Highlight of Freshman Wfeek Activities was the Frosh Mixer in Cutler Union, the feature attrac- tion of the evening being a special skit by LUGDIS, the River Campus dramatic group. 80 Cutler Union Committee Wforking behind the scenes, the House Com- mittee plays a vital role on the Prince Street Campus. lt is the responsibility of this group to determine the policies of the XVomen's Union and to see that its various activities function smoothly. Headed by the vice-president of the Student Asso- ciation, who was this year Tillie Bramble, the Committee is regularly composed of the Director of Cutler Union. lXIiss Ruth Merrill, an appointed faculty member. and the vice-presidents of the four classes. Under its jurisdiction are several sub- committees responsible for music, the poster room, the Snack Bar, and various other phases of the Union's program. Front Row, Lrft lo Right: P. Montfredo, N.

Upon confirmation of their appointments by the Board of Control, the four promptly announced their intention of producing the book on time in June. Ed Bronson and Elliot Jaquith, campus photog- raphers extraordinary, began collecting informal campus shots, and Loulen Studios began the slow process of taking the portrait photos. But as the year went on, and the deadline grew closer, the confident editors began to get additional white hairs. Dick Keagle and Cynthia Holt ran into trouble with their staff copy, Carol Ernst and Ray Rueby had hectic moments rounding up complete organizations for group shots, B. Kinnear and Al Cooper spent many afternoons affixing names to hard-to-find portraits. Jim Stuber had to do quick work on the ever-changing makeup of the book. Nevertheless, when the staff met in January real progress had been made, and when the last page was whisked away to The Leo Hart Company late in March the editors heaved a sigh of relief. It had been a diflicult job to assemble the Cen- tennial Edition of the INTERPRES. In the face of rising costs, the staff was faced with a decreased allotment from the Board of Control. Further, there was a lack of student interest arising out of past experience with the traditionally Hlatew year- books, the INTERPRES had not been out on schedule in two years, and many students had never received their copies. So the staff had their work cut out for them. It was a hectic year of letting contracts, reading proof, writing copy, identifying group pictures, meeting deadlines, and pasting pictures. But the job is finally complete, no more glue- pots and grease pencils, no more missing copy and smeared photographs. The Centennial Edition of the INTERPRES is published. The staff believes that they have produced a yearbook that is unique and a little different. And they think itis a good book. We hope so.

The paper, issued first under the name Cloisler Iflfindow, appeared fortnightly through the college year in September 1925 and became a weekly publica- tion October 1926. It was suspended as a separate publication March 12iIuly 23, 1943, during which period it merged with the Campus to form the Campus Times. In October 1932, an inspired reporter wrote, NThe editorial staff of this college publication wishes to announce that it shall be known from now on as Tower Times. Wfeeks before the Cloisler IfViria'ow staff had planned the contest for renaming the paper in hopes that the new name would reflect the new campus which the men had vacated for the women. The Cloister Window no longer had significance for the women as it had originally suggested the cloister between Catharine Strong Hall and Anthony Memorial where the original Woman's Campus was located. The new name, Tower Times, was chosen because it refiected the influence of Cutler Union, the new building on campus and place where the newspaper oiiices would be located. Since September 25, 1925, the editors of the paper have been devoted to the ideal of publishing a good paper in true news- paper style, an ideal which has been realized especially in the past decade. The school points with pride to the work of some of its outstanding editors, Harriet Van Horn '40, Shelia Smith 546, Patricia Steepee ,47, Nora North '48. Moreover the staffs may point with pride to the many projects they have sponsored, local, national and international in interest. The Tower Times has been especially interested in provoking reforms on campus concerning student-faculty relations, inter- campus relations, academic policies, and areas of student activ- ity. Its editors have believed consistently in freedom of thought and expression. New milestones in the history of the paper were passed this year by Joyce Gitelman and her staff as the paper sought to report the progress of student academic life in all its phases, especially in regard to the intelligent balancing of academic and extracurricular life. On its twenty-fifth anniversary, the Tower Times looks back to a quarter of a century of instigating and reporting news and reform on campus and looks forward to coming years of con- sistently high caliber news, features, and editorial writing.

The first atteInpts at student journalism were sporadic and short-lived, however. and it was not until the twenty-third year of the universityas existence that a successful school paper was started. In October of 1873. eight undergrads of the class of '75 began the publication of an eight-page monthly under the masthead of L'The University Recordf, The paper was well-received, and in March of 776, the name was ofhcially changed to i'The Rochester Campus. It was not until December of the year 1887 that the college newspaper was oflicially known as UThe Campusfi Throughout its history. The Campus has been the oflicial organ of the University of Rochester, voicing not necessarily the policies of the administration, but rather the opinion of the student body. The issues of the paper for the entire period of its existence show a strength of conviction and sound judgment on the part of the editorial boards. It is interesting to note the various criticisms offered by the paper of the administration, faculty, and students. The Campus has been published regularly since its inception. There was a period, however, during World War II when The Campus was published jointly with the Tower Times, under the title ofthe i'Campus Timesf' In 1943, The Campus resumed its separate status. The recent policy of The Campus, under the able leadership of editor Fritz Ostendorf, has been careful consideration of university problems from the faculty and student standpoints. Support of Thr Campus has been given to all notable college activities, and the paper has been utilized as a medium for the exchange of undergraduate ideas. Thr Campus, traditionally sound in its financial standing as well as its editorial policy, has been recognized as an outstanding college publication. 1, 5 mf, , ' 1 A +1 s r X , 5 S Q33 ,K Q E I Q .JY .

Delta Phi Alpha This Honorary German Fraternity is made up of advanced students of German literature. Each year a new group of undergraduates is elected to the society from those students showing a high proficiency in German as well as general scholastic ability. The IHOSI important event on the calendar of this group. which this year was led by Audrey Teele. is its annual May Banquet. at which the new members are initiated. A highlight of this yearis program was a lecture given by the faculty advisor, Dr. Appelt, on the famous German poet, Goethe Gahr. who was born exactly two hundred years ago.

The annual Christmas Concert and the traditional caroling at the homes of faculty members took place just before Christmas vacation. Rehearsals for the customary Spring Concert, performed with the Freshman Choir, began in February.

From the balcony came the whistle and explosion of balloons, expressive of the general excitement. Slowly, the house lights dimmedfit was still fifteen minutes until the curtain was to rise on the 549 K-Scope production, BAERLI POSSIBLE, but a nervous member of the lighting crew had pulled the wrong switch. Backstage every- thing was going smoothly: all but three of the cast for the opening number had shown up for make-up. 98 The famous Idgette and Etchen chorus line could be seen standing in formation around Baerli, the goat, who was apparently disturbed about some- thing more than the fact that she had been re- quested to grow a goatee during the last few weeks of rehearsals. The twelve sisters could be heard saying, f'Baerli, what,s wrong?5' :'Nothing,,' moaned the goat. NBaerli, what's wrongpi' icNothing, thereis no one.

The chorus reassured her that theyid help out if she got stuck, gave her an- other tin can to chew on for strength Cafter four weeks of nightly rehearsing she'd gotten so that they meant more than cigarettesll, and lined up for their first entry. Back in the auditorium, authors Pat Pile, Chris Slocum, and Helen Uebel smiled nervously at dramatic director Phyl Kroemer and her assistant, Cenza Colafemina, who had just been down in the cafeteria with a final plea for the cast to 'fSmile!U and uRelax!,, As the orchestra, started up with that peppy opening number uHey! Wfhat A Day,'5 the many late-comers crowding the main lounge relaxed in their easy chairs, the curtain parted and a great musical show was becoming history. In the front row, giving encouragement to or- chestra and cast, sat musical directors, Gette and Schantzfout of blue jeans for the first time in a month. Seeing the success of such top numbers as Tobi's IS THERE A SOMEONEP, Katis THURS- DAY NIGHT IS A BIG NIGHT FOR ALL, and Chelfs BROTHER, THAT'S FOR JVIE, the two girls relaxed and stopped bouncing rhythmically in their chairs. Organizational director, Molly Bruckel, seemed also to enjoy the show, although she complained the next day of the stiff neck which she had gotten from trying to see around the bass fiddle in front of her. When the curtain rang down on the tenth and final curtain call and the audi- torium was cleared for an over-crowded but high- spirited K-Scope dance, everyone agreed that the show had been tremendous, but it seemed baerli possiblew that critics would exclaimv 'fWe wish to retract all previous statements.'7 The Campus HBest K-Scope in seven years!', Dr. Earl Koos, Sociology 72 If I had done half as well, I would have felt less guilty about accepting the Pulitzer Prizef, Eugene O,Neill, The Drama.

All interested students are eligible to participate in the activities of the organization, but a voting membership is acquired only upon the completion of a certain amount of work with the group. Regular bi-monthly meetings feature programs and workshops on various phases of dramatic technique as well as discussions con- cerning future productions. Two full-length plays produced each year stand as proof of the talent and industry of the Stagers group and its director. November of this year saw a laugh-filled production of Kaufman and Hart's ONCE IN A LIFETIME, in which leading actors Fritz Ostendorf, Louise Bush, and Saul Cohen were ably supported by George and Georgianna Spelvin in the minor roles. In the spring the Stagers again displayed their talent in a pleasing production of Shakespeare's .l'Il'CI-I ADO ABOUT NOTHING. Acting as olhcers for the group in 1948-1949 were: President, Saul Coheng Vice-president, Shirley Zeldeng Secretary, Jane Finchg Treasurer, Mary Sanders, Publicity chairman, Graham Hawks, Play reading committee, Fritz Ostendorf, N Joyce Gitelman, and Willian Glazer.

Expectations were high as 6,000 fans jammed into the stadium -midst bright skiesfto take in the opening game against Amherst, September 25. Rochester scored first when Don Beattie lugged a punt back to the opponent,s 25 and then Speedster Dick Eden skirted end to score. However, the visitors, deep in experienced reserve strength, gradually wore down the regulars and untried albeit fighting second stringers, and won handily 26-6. The following Saturday, Union funsuccessful against U. R. since 1939i stepped in and won going away, 19-6. The first half was all Union as the Yellowjackets failed to gain a first down. After half time, Elmer Burnhamis lads solved the 6-3-2 defense, Captain Howie Hoesterey climaxed a drive with a TD plunge. On the black side were the lapses in U. R. pass defense which plagued the Rivermen constantly during the season. October 9th brought in Depauw from Greencastle, Indiana, and a well-earned Rochester victory. This was a most significant victory for it was this same Tiger eleven that knocked U. R. from the undefeated in '47. The Homecoming Weekendi' was assured a success when Coke Dales, pile-driving fullback, scored TD number 2 after a Jack Welter to Carl Wren first-half pass had presented Rochester with its first tally. The final score was 13-6 and Ralph Henty was recipient of player-of-week award. Football Twenty-eight footballers traveled to Medford, Mass. the following Saturday to engage Coach Fred Ellisis Tuftsls eleven but again reserve strength paid off 26-6. The Jumbo's were never headed and Rochester was never in the game. Back home again on friendly grounds, Rochester entertained not too pleasantly coach Paul Bitgood by handing his heavy Sampson eleven a 19-9 shellacking. Rochester was superior on the ground, spearheaded again by Coke Dales, and also com- pleted Hve of six passes. At Troy, the Yellowjackets defeated R. P. I. 14-7, and things were looking brighter for Rochester, this brought their hereto- fore mediocre season to an even-steven basis and they were beginning to let loose with some of their talked about poten- tialities. Elmer Burnham initiated his B-modified T with a fianker. At Burlington, Vermont, in a slam bang slaplem-down affair Rochester and Vermont fought to a 14-14 tie. Although Roch- ester failed to complete a pass for the second consecutive week, the defensive work was Herculean. Carl Wrenis educated toe booted 2 for 2 successful after touchdown tries. Rochester hit its zenith the following Saturday and really thumped Clarkson by the tune of 47-0. Substitutes Williams, Braff, and Wackerman scored TD's in addition to Eden, Beattie, Anderson, and Dales as the bench was cleared in the team victory. Wesleyan, 22 consecutive game winner, came up from Middletown, Conn. for the U. R. finale November 20 and left with a decisive 26-0 victory. It was no walkaway, however, as statistics showed Rochester had 10 first downs to Wesleyanis 7 and 170 yards gained rushing to the Cardinalls 181. Jack Welter, Varsity Quarterback, was honored as player of the week. At a post season dinner the members of the varsity along with the junior varsity and the frosh grid members were honored. Special recognition went to Dick Eden who received the Gordon Wallace Trophy as most outstanding backfield player, to Guard Ralph Rugged Henty as outstanding lineman, and to Tackle Bob Smith as most improved player of the year. Freshman Football The Frosh football season was anything but disastrous despite their short lived campaign which came up with 2 losses and one victory. After four weeks of nightly practice, Coach Johnny Sullivan,s hustlers, with an unoflicial 19-0 victory over Commander Watkin's junior varsity, took on Genesee Junior College on October 30 in a bitter struggle. The final score read Genesee 13, Rochester 8, which is truly indicative of the type of give and take ball game played. The following week the Alfred Frosh rolled into and out of Rochester with a 27-0 win tucked under their belts. The Roch- ester '49 varsity will find boys such as DiPasquale, Brasley, Colihan, Leib, Travis, Vienna, Walker, Herman, Archibald, Neel, Neil, Knox, Tait, Lynd, Tubinis, Bagnara, Laine, Parker, Downing, Stiggers, Springer, Goldberg, Stone, and Fisler really pressing them, for these Frosh boys have shown a lot of drive despite their inexperience.

Basketball When Coach Lou Alexander issued the call for Varsity basketballers, he was rewarded by the sight of several of last yearis team again gracing the Palestra floor. Though Chuck Gray, Kenny Flowerday, jim Blumer, and B. Williams were lost because of graduation, a nucleus was soon formed around john Donohue, Neil Alexander, jim Lennox, Scotty Norris, and Mike Fedoryshyn, all members of last year's squad. The im- portant difference was the condition of the hoopsters when they reported for pre-season prac- tice. Because of informal workouts in the gym dating from the mid- dle of October, the candidates were in good physical shape. In addition to the members of the varsity squad who returned, there were several of last year's Hne freshman squad who showed up. All in all, things looked good for the basketball team. The Yellowjacket cagers began the season by playing host to Sampson College on December 4. The home team easily defeated the Indians and the River Campus was given a glimpse of a new Donohue, who appeared to be in fine shape this year. A week later the team traveled to Oberlin Coaches: HSpike Garnish, Lou Alexander. 104 where the U of R road-jinx showed up to plague the River- man with a 36-51 defeat. At home the next week, our boys trounced ithe Toronto five 60-41, In the first of four games played during the Christmas recess, the Yellowjackets took the White Mules of Colby into camp 75-59 in the first meeting of the two teams. Two days later, on December 30, a seasoned team from Lafayette came to town and routed the home forces 63-49. The Lafayette Leopards enjoyed a definite height superi- ority but fans saw the U of R team battle to a very respectable defeat. On New Years Day, the Rivermen easily defeated an inept Mississippi College Hve 68-54. The seasons most spectac- ular game took place on january 3 when the Dartmouth Indians came to Rochester with a record of ten wins and one defeat. The Dartmouth five was the best team to appear in the Palestra this season and the home team rose to the occasion and played their best game of the year. The Dartmouth team enjoyed a one point lead at the half and until there were but four minutes to go, the game was on an even basis. The final score, 51-64, does not indicate the closeness of the game. After vacation, students reflected on the season so far and liked what they found. There appeared to be a new scoring star on the Yellowjacket five. john Donohue had an average of just over twenty points for the first seven games. The next game saw the Rivermen lose a disappointing contest with Case at Cleveland. With half the season gone, the I' of R sported a four-four record with most of the tougher games behind them. Following the Case debacle, the team broke the road-jinx by defeating the Hamilton men at Clinton. f'Dusty Donohue hit for 37 points against the Continentals to set a new individual scoring record. A fighting Union team was the next victim of the U of R Steamroller as the Garnets went down 55-45. A well-drilled Kenyon team knocked off the Rivermen 71-61, due mainly to 6 ft. 6 in. Eppa Rixey who scored 30 points. Alfred lost to a revitalized Yellowjacket outfit. but RPI beat the locals by two points in the hottest game of the season. Clarkson and Allegheny then fell by the identical scores of 54-52, and Alfred was again beaten by the Yellowjackets to close out the season with a 10-6 record. Analyzing the season requires realization that Hve men played most of the basketball for the alma mater this season, jim Lennox, Mike Fedoryshyn, Scotty Norris, Neil Alexander and john Donohue played most of all the games. Following the Kenyon game, Donohue was declared ineligible because of marks and Lou Alexander jr. stepped into the breach. Aside from the fact that Donohue set a new scoring record of 212 points, the season was not exceptionally sparkling. The team ran hot and cold for the entire season, but on the whole pleased River Campus fans with their efforts. Next season looms as a better year for the Yellowjackets, since the whole team Qwith the exceptions of Mike Fedoryshyn, Dick Garnish, and Bob Hamptonj will be back to bring basketball to the Rochester campus.

XVinning six and losing eight, the Frosh nevertheless gave good account of themselves against stiff opposition. Tommy Sarro, deadly southpaw, emerged as the high scorer for the season with an average of 17 points per game. The notalmle victories of the Frosh included revenges against Nlanlius and the Alfred Frosh. The year- lings dropped two games to the Jayvees and to the Ithaca Frosh. Malcolm Blakeslee Soccer With a look of greed from all his last yearis victories, Coach 'fDocU Campbell surveyed his rugged ,48 squad. He saw nine returning lettermen, most of them being last yearis starters. This looked good to everyone, and the squad was determined to out-do last year's 'fgreatw record. The first start against Ithaca looked fine, the U of R winning by the substantial score of 2-0. The second game against Buffalo State showed even greater promise for the yearis success with the final score in favor of the Rivermen, 4-1. Then the roof fell in. A powerful Colgate eleven turned the Yellowjackets back to the tune of 2-0, followed by a defeat at the hands of Sampson, 2-1. This evened our record at two wins and two defeats, with almighty Cortland breathing down the Yellowjackets' necks. However the boom hit Cortland, and the U of R came out 106 with a moral victory, tying the Cortland teachers, 0-0. In account for the afternoon was the old-time teamwork the Yellowjackets showed. Returning to their home field, the U of R pitchmen easily subdued Allegheny, 4-0. In this game, HDoc', Campbell gave the nod to the bench, and the subs had a field day, playing a good part of the game. Then along came a strong Hamilton squad that was supposed to clip the Dandelions, but who found themselves in back ofa 3-1 half time score. This, unfortunately, was short lived, and the Hamiltonians scored two goals against a worn-out Yellow- jacket eleven in the next two periods. Syracuse laced a tired U of R squad, 6-2, to end the season in a complete tie. 'fDoc', Campbell must have had a lump in his throat as he watched the nucleus of the soccer team leave this year. 1948 LETTERM EN Karl Bastress James McHugh Robert Ogden John DeMocker Robert Elwell Karl Gehlman Tom Gray Marshall Guntrum Kirk Howland Leonard Koch Wfilliam Kotary Rochester ....... 2 Rochester ....... 4 Rochester ....... 0 Rochester ....... 1 Rochester ....... 0 Rochester ....... 4 Rochester .,..... 3 Rochester ....... 2 David Pugh David Schaeffer Frank Shaughnessy Bud Searle Robert VVallace Dean Youngman Bruce LeMessurier, Manager 1948 SEA SON Ithaca .......

However, anyone who witnessed the swimmers in action this year would realize in- stantly that it was not luck, but the result of constant drive and patient coaching that enabled the Rochester swimming team to rack up its first winning season in four years. The first meet with Sampson stamped the yellowjacket team as a definite improvement over last year,s club. They breezed home with 6 out of 9 first places to win, 43-32. However, the following week the Big Redi' of Colgate paid a visit and Rochester was literally drowned, 54-21. Chuck Lundquist, U of R diver, was the only Rochester first in a meet that saw the pool medley relay second smashed by a powerful Colgate team. Out of the frying pan and into the fire went Rochester with a similar defeat at the hands of R. P. I. Determined to get back into the winning column, Rochester dunked Hamilton-46-29 with the Rivermen taking 8 out of 9 firsts. Gordie Morrison, member of the Rochester record holding medley relay team, displayed some of his old form in breaking the Hamilton pool record for the 100-yard freestyle. The meet with Union was one of the most exciting swimming meets ever held in the Rochester pool. Four events were won by one or two armstrokes.

Continuing on its winning ways, Rochester re- ceived its visitors from Canada, the University of Toronto, rudely in winning easily 54 to 21. The winning streak was snapped at three when the Rivermen, minus the services of Morrison, lost to Union, 41 to 34. However, the next meet, a 41-34 victory over Sampson, clinched at least an even won-lost second. Both Austerman and Koch scored double victories in this meet. Ohio was the scene of the meet which saw a game but out- classed Rochester team lose 45-30 to Oberlin. Bruce Kinsey, son of the famous author-psychologist, put on a real display of swimming in the 220 that Rochester swimmers will long remember. The seasons, finale was celebrated with an impressive 42-33 win over Hamilton, again Koch took 2 out of the 7 Rochester first places. Consistent first places throughout the year went to Koch, Lundquist, Iron Mani' Austerman, and the medley relay team of Wadsworth, backstroker, Captain Barge, breaststroker, and Reed, freestyle. With the exception of Lundquist who will graduate, some outstanding members of the freshman squad should produce a still stronger team next year. 107 ,gk With Oak Hill Country Club acting as home territory, a team of seasoned golf veterans under the guidance of their coach HDoc,, McAmmond made an impressive record against some of the top teams and colleges in the east. Led by their captain, Jim Lennox, who has already gained prominence in local tournaments, and Jack Hedges, former letterman from Notre Dame, the team was very capably supported by Wes McKane, Bob Leene, Claude Baird, and Don Paris. Probably the main highlight of the season was the 6-3 victory by Jack Hedges over the Maryland State Amateur champ, Richard Burgess of Syracuse.

With such formidable opponents confronting him, 'gDoc is looking for replacements for Jack Hedges, Wes McKane, and Don Paris, the only letter- men not returning from last season. Hopes are high as Dave Mullen transfer student from Seton Hall, and jim Robeson, both consistently low scorers, are out on the links this year along with former letterman Bill Fay. With added experience and additional potentialities, the team should look forward to a highly successful season.

Lou was able to field a team of nine lettermen, all of whom had considerable experience in the baseball wars. Graduation had accounted for the left side of the infield as shortstop Bill Schumaker, who served as captain of the 347 team, and third sacker Don Diehl vacated their regular spots. 'fShag,' Shaughnessy shifted to shortstop and Eddie Rex came in from the outfield to fill the gap at second base created by the change. Bob Bruton took over the third base duties and Dean Becker again held down first base. An outfield trio of Jerry Lacy, Dick Bowllan, and Art Wood promised to provide plenty of support to the pitching staff. The bell-weather of the staff was Carl Wren. Rounding out the group of hurlers were Bob Mohlar and southpaws Dan Dieter and Al Miller. To receive their slants, versatile and rugged Dick Garnish encamped behind the plate for another span of gruelling work. Opening the season in Ithaca, Rochester dropped a 5-O decision to Cornell, a baseball strong-hold of Up-state New York. Unable to dent the plate, the Rivermen's potential hitting power was held to a minimum. On the road again, the Yellow- jackets traveled to Troy to take a 6-3 setback from a well- balanced Rensselaer squad. The advent of the home season saw Rochester inaugurate a five game winning streak with a resounding 7 to O thumping over Clarkson. Bruton paced the home team in the batting column as he did all year. Wren turned in a masterful shutout. Sampson met the same fate as the Engineers, for they too succumbed to the slugging feats of the Varsity. In Schenectady, Rochester won a decisive victory over Union. The Allegheny game, May 14, was a slug-fest from start to finish. Dieter received credit for the win as both good and bad baseball was displayed by the teams. Reversing the outcome of the previous RPI game, the Yellow- jackets eeked out a 7-6 win on the River Campus diamond. The Union game marked the only contest the U of R lost at home for the season, the home forces were shutout by a 3-O margin. A surprisingly strong force from Hamilton battled Rochester to the last inning, only to lose, 2 to 1. The deliberate attack of the Rochester hitters set back Col- gate, 12-3, in a game played in Hamilton. Rochester rounded out the campaign on the road. Against Clarkson, they dropped a close one. The same was true in the St. Lawrence contest. The Rivermen lost 3 to 1. Baseball 109 Tennis Looking forward to a prosperous, yet difficult season, Coach Walter 'gDoc,, Campbell put his racqueteers through rigorous workouts. Although Cornell is absent from this year's slate, the Campbellmen face such opponents as Colgate and Syracuse which have subdued the Yellowjackets by small but decisive margins in past years. Returning for the '49 season from the previous year are Bob Lovell, Wally Ryan, Chuck Cochrane, Art Gourley, Glen Fowler, John Dieterle, Len Block, and Ted Weeks-a good start for any season. Moreoxfer, rejoining the aggregation this year is Bill Bosworth who will be a definite cog in the wheel. Appraising the situation, Doc Campbell sees a hard-lighting singles team that is better than average, followed by three well-woven doubles combinations. 1948 LETTERMEN y Len Block Bob Lovell Pierce Day Rick Raible ' John Dieterle Wally Ryan Ted Weeks 1948 SEASON Rochester .... ..... 1 Cornell. .

The starting line-up in order has not been announced, but Bob Lovell will probably play in the number one spot, followed by Wally Ryan, Chuck Cochrane, and Bill Bosworth lighting for succeeding positions and challenging Lovell for the crown position. Next in line will be Dieterle, Fowler, Daniels, Block, and Gourley. Doubles teams will probably pan out to the Lovell and Cochrane, Bosworth and Ryan, and Fowler and Danielsein that order. Last year's team ended with around a .450 average which was better than expected. However this year the U of R net- men have four new additions to the varsity squad with only one having graduated from the former aggregation. This gives the Campbellmen an excellent opportunity for an unblemished season. Track Plagued by a lack of middle distance winners and weak in the weights, Coach Roman Speegle,s 1948 track special experienced rough going and finished with a season's record of two wins and three setbacks. In the spring inaugural, the Rivermen snatched a close win over an underdog Hamilton aggregation, 62M to 54M. Speegle's speedsters, then ran into a determined Ithaca college squad which eeked out a 66Mg59yZ decision over the Yellowjackets. Next on the agenda was a Rensselaer team which ran rough shod over the Varsity to the tune of 82-44. This barrier gave the opponents a Uhandicapw that the U of R could not overcome. ti 111 However, despite this shortcoming, the Speeglemen bounced back and ran Buffalo State Teachers into the cinders 75-56. The hope for a winning season was extinguished as a strong Union Club drubbed the Rivermen 96-30 to hand the men from the Genesee their worst defeat of the season. In an invitation meet at Rensselaer with nine schools com- peting, Bill Britton gained a third in the high hurdles and a second in the low hurdles while Roger Reed and Captain .Iohn Lamb placed third and fourth respectively in the 220 yard dash. Reed also took a first in the broadjump while Dick Reinertson followed his teammate.

Those boys who do not participate in the varsity sports at college are given ample opportunity to show off their acquired skills while repre- senting the various fraternities, dormitories, and independent organizations on campus. YYith the big threel' of the fall tCrosscountry. Football, Swimming meet and the Swimathonj over with, and the winter sports tBasketball, Handball, and Yolleyballl not yet com- pleted, the point situation looks something like this: Delta Upsilon, last yearls winners, seems to have taken a decisive lead, with the championship cups in Crosscountry and Swimming. Theta Chi is close behind, with the cup in the Swimathon and seconds in Crosscountry and Swimming. Alpha Uelta Phi is in third place. Wlhile fraternities are generally dominating the leagues. it is interesting to note that the Grads. with the Foot- ball cup, and Burton and Crosby are by no means out of the running. As a companion to the extensive intramural program on the River Campus. is the Outing Club. Anyone who has seen the black and yellow shoulder patch knows that it primarily stands for skiing. This year. during the between-terms holiday, the Outing Club again visited Snow Ridge at Turin. New York.

The fall season was highlighted by a Hockey Sports Carnival to which Rochester played hostess on October thirtieth and thirty-first. Representatives from eight Eastern schools partici- pated in the meet which featured a series of games on Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning. A banquet Saturday night was made memorable by an address given by Miss Ethel Kloberg, president of the United States Field Hockey Associa- tion. The event, somewhat of an innovation, proved successful from every viewpoint, but especially pleased were Prince Street participants who found their teams victorious at the close of the meet. Another special feature of the WAA program last fall was an exhibition badminton match put on by Miss Ethel Marshall, who holds the title of National Amateur Badminton Champion. With the approach of wintery winds, the athletic board turned to its program of indoor sports. Class and inter-dormitory rivalry reached a friendly peak in the annual basketball tourna- ments, which lasted into the early spring. A between-semesters ski trip provided winter sports enthusiasts with an opportunity to prove their skill on the mountain slopes at Turin. In February and March the XVAA entered again into the realm of inter- collegiate athletics, sending teams representing the college to basketball tournaments at Cortland and Skidmore. April saw the annual Water Ballet, for which students had been practicing for several months under the able direction of Gram,' Wilberham. One of the outstanding features of the performance was a ballet done to Tchaikowskyis f'Nutcracker's Suitef' This year the choreography for all numbers was done by the students themselves. In addition to sponsoring these outstanding athletic events, the W'AA encouraged students to participate in any of fourteen sports programs which ran from September through May.

This council, which is composed of one junior and one senior from each of the five sororities on campus, was organized for a three-fold purpose: to meet for the discussion of common prob- lems and policiesg to improve relationships among the sororitiesg and to plan and regulate rushing. Meetings are called by the president whenever the need arises or when requested by any member of the council. During the rushing periods meetings are held daily for the discussion of any problems or questions which might arise. In addition to acting as a judiciary body, the council sponsored its annual intersorority dance, which this year carried out the theme of a Tinsel Ball. The Hellenic Council, composed of two representatives from each of the social fraternities, has jurisdiction over all affairs affecting activities on fraternity quadrangle. Under the sponsorship of the Council, the 1949 Interfraternity Ball featured Claude Thornhill and his Orchestra in the Pales- tra. Members of Phi Mu Alpha, a social fraternity at the East- man School of Music, cooperated with the Council in making the dance a success. The traditional Open House Weekend following the final examination period in June marked the highlight of social activities on the quadrangle, with couples 'cmaking the rounds to the various houses amid a general atmosphere of high spirits and goodfellowship.

This group is made up of the presidents ofthe various dormi- tories and one representative from the City Girls' Organization. Meeting every other week with Miss Merrill and Dean Clark. the council is responsible for formulating and executing all dormitory policy, dealing with the problems of individual dorms as well as with those of the system as a whole. In the Spring the council again sponsored a series of popular inter- dorm teas. Confronted with a multitude of problems relating to the tele- phone service, concession question, and crowded living condi- tions, the Dormitory Council undertook to improve conditions in River Campus dormitories by a unew deal? Under the chairmanship of Bob Brandow, the Council limited the number of concessionaires allowed to operate in the uni- versity dorms, and established a system of paid telephone attendants to improve study conditions in the areas immediately adjacent to the telephone booths. The Dormitory Loan Fund, under the watchful eye of Treasurer John DeM0cker, continued to help students find a partial remedy for their financial shortcomings.
